Fitness talk and more with Bodies by Roc
ChristieOhh: How did you get started in personal training and fitness?
Roc: I got started years ago. I've always loved working out and taking care of myself. About 9-10 years ago I got certified. I noticed I made a lot of money for American Family Fitness as a trainer and went on my own. I started training all walks of life. Kids, athletes, elderly people; fitness is my passion. It's been a blessing and its growing like crazy.
ChristieOhh: The summer is almost over and winter is near! What are some tips to stay sexy and in shape during the winter months?
Roc: Whether in gym or home; everyone should do some sort of circuit, in addition to your normal workout or cardio. Normally, people use the winter months to get ready for the summer months. However, people do lose focus during Thanksgiving and Christmas with family feast. You can look good after the holidays during a circuit. You have to motivate yourself to go to the gym and workout.
ChristieOhh: What can someone do to lose weigh if they are afraid of the gym?
Roc: I meet people like that every day. At the end of the day you have to start somewhere. Whether you're walking the track outside or in the comfort of home you have to do it. You have to find some start point. Regardless, I encourage that person to start and build your confidence at home so you don't mind going to the gym.
ChristieOhh: Is it a myth to say, "you can eat what you want as long as you workout?"
Roc: It's definitely a myth! (lol) You cannot out work a bad diet. You have to balance the scale. Your good eating has to overpower your bad eating. Especially, if you want to see a change in your body, you have to eat properly. You are what you eat and you have to eat good if you want results.
I push my clients in the gym, we go hard. But if you go home and eat bad you just killed the work out. You have to have the balance. Don't get me wrong you will see results but you will not be consistent or lose they way you should.
ChristieOhh: New Year's resolutions in reference to working out are huge. Is it an Ohh yes or Ohh no?
Roc: Ohh no! If you have in your mind you want to change your body, start now. Why wait till the New Year. Out of everybody that starts the New Year resolution I can count on one hand those that stay committed. No better time than now to workout. There's so many people that ride pass that gym everyday that say I'm going to stop. But to those that do stop they have taken the first step and you want to start now to get healthy and don't want to get old before you get old. I see people investing in real estate, designer clothes and other materials things but not in their body. Your health is the most important investment you can make. Invest in your health!

Marxist Rage Comics
This is a new assignment I began experimenting with this semester. I point interested students to a rage maker site and then ask them to create a rage comic illustrating a passage from Marx for the class blog. So far, the results have made me happy. Here's one student comic on primitive accumulation and the bloody legislation against the expropriated:

Escher Pepper
And via: The UC Davis Department of English Home Page now reads:
The faculty of the UC Davis English Department supports the Board of the Davis Faculty Association in calling for Chancellor Katehi's immediate resignation and for "a policy that will end the practice of forcibly removing non-violent student, faculty, staff, and community protesters by police on the UC Davis campus." Further, given the demonstrable threat posed by the University of California Police Department and other law enforcement agencies to the safety of students, faculty, staff, and community members on our campus and others in the UC system, we propose that such a policy include the disbanding of the UCPD and the institution of an ordinance against the presence of police forces on the UC Davis campus, unless their presence is specifically requested by a member of the campus community. This will initiate a genuinely collective effort to determine how best to ensure the health and safety of the campus community at UC Davis.

Police Riot at UC Davis
Below is an excerpt from an open letter by a junior faculty member at UC Davis calling for the Chancellor's resignation over yesterday's police attack on non-violent students.
... Today you ordered police onto our campus to clear student protesters from the quad. These were protesters who participated in a rally speaking out against tuition increases and police brutality on UC campuses on Tuesday—a rally that I organized, and which was endorsed by the Davis Faculty Association. These students attended that rally in response to a call for solidarity from students and faculty who were bludgeoned with batons, hospitalized, and arrested at UC Berkeley last week. In the highest tradition of non-violent civil disobedience, those protesters had linked arms and held their ground in defense of tents they set up beside Sproul Hall. In a gesture of solidarity with those students and faculty, and in solidarity with the national Occupy movement, students at UC Davis set up tents on the main quad. When you ordered police outfitted with riot helmets, brandishing batons and teargas guns to remove their tents today, those students sat down on the ground in a circle and linked arms to protect them.
What happened next?
Without any provocation whatsoever, other than the bodies of these students sitting where they were on the ground, with their arms linked, police pepper-sprayed students.Students remained on the ground, now writhing in pain, with their arms linked.
What happened next?
Police used batons to try to push the students apart. Those they could separate, they arrested, kneeling on their bodies and pushing their heads into the ground. Those they could not separate, they pepper-sprayed directly in the face, holding these students as they did so. When students covered their eyes with their clothing, police forced open their mouths and pepper-sprayed down their throats. Several of these students were hospitalized. Others are seriously injured. One of them, forty-five minutes after being pepper-sprayed down his throat, was still coughing up blood.
This is what happened. You are responsible for it.
You are responsible for it because this is what happens when UC Chancellors order police onto our campuses to disperse peaceful protesters through the use of force: students get hurt. Faculty get hurt. One of the most inspiring things (inspiring for those of us who care about students who assert their rights to free speech and peaceful assembly) about the demonstration in Berkeley on November 9 is that UC Berkeley faculty stood together with students, their arms linked together. Associate Professor of English Celeste Langan was grabbed by her hair, thrown on the ground, and arrested. Associate Professor Geoffrey O'Brien was injured by baton blows. Professor Robert Hass, former Poet Laureate of the United States, National Book Award and Pulitzer Prize winner, was also struck with a baton. These faculty stood together with students in solidarity, and they too were beaten and arrested by the police. In writing this letter, I stand together with those faculty and with the students they supported.
One week after this happened at UC Berkeley, you ordered police to clear tents from the quad at UC Davis. When students responded in the same way—linking arms and holding their ground—police also responded in the same way: with violent force. The fact is: the administration of UC campuses systematically uses police brutality to terrorize students and faculty, to crush political dissent on our campuses, and to suppress free speech and peaceful assembly. Many people know this. Many more people are learning it very quickly.
You are responsible for the police violence directed against students on the UC Davis quad on November 18, 2011. As I said, I am writing to hold you responsible and to demand your immediate resignation on these grounds.
I call for your resignation because you are unfit to do your job. You are unfit to ensure the safety of students at UC Davis. In fact: you are the primary threat to the safety of students at UC Davis. As such, I call upon you to resign immediately.

Wiki Wonderlands
The Georgia Institute of Technology has stripped, at least for now, more than 10 years of class work from its collaborative-learning Web sites, known as Swikis.
Following a student's complaint to the university that his name was listed on the Web site of a public course, Georgia Tech officials decided on Monday to remove all Swikis other than ones from the current semester, said Mark Guzdial, a professor in the School of Interactive Computing, who is a co-creator of the Swikis.
He reported the development on his Computing Education blog this week. (The tech journalist Audrey Watters picked it up on her blog.)
In his post, Mr. Guzdial recounts how he and two Ph.D. students created the Swiki, or CoWeb, in 2000, so that students would have a place to "construct public entities on the Web." The Swikis served intentionally undefined purposes, such as providing a forum for cross-semester discussions and a home for public galleries of student work. "All of that ended yesterday," he wrote, because of Georgia Tech's concerns about Ferpa, the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act.This seems a case of an administration over reacting to the barest hint of a legal challenge. My best guess is that the only part of this that might be covered by FERPA is identifying student posts by full name on a university course site. Identifying posts by a user handle, initials, etc., would be fine.
If the blogs themselves were public and hosted on blogger or tumblr rather than on a password protected university server, there never would have been a temptation to identify posts with students' full, legal names. In addition, students would maintain full control over what information remained online after the end of the course, not the university. I don't think there is anything in FERPA that prevents students from identifying themselves, their work, or the courses they took online. FERPA simply prevents the institution from publishing this information.
Deleting all the student authored wikis at Georgia Tech seems a very rash act.

Occupation and Enclosure
Here's a very interesting document on the occupation movement and popular economics.
Let's be clear, though, to avoid any confusion: humans have always engaged in diverse forms of production, distribution, exchange, and consumption. What the concept of "the economy" did, in its specific historical form, was to create a kind of conceptual enclosure around a very particular set of human rationalities, motivations, social activities, and ways of life. Economic theory said: self-interest is the legitimate, and natural, economic motivation. Exclusive, individual private property is the legitimate, and efficient, way to organize access to resources and the means of livelihood. Accumulation of wealth (and the fear of poverty) is the legitimate incentive that will generate human well-being. Wage labor (a world divided into owners and workers) is the way to organize effective and innovative economies. Competition is the dynamic that generates efficiency in production and exchange. Bundle all of these things together, publish books about their necessity and build institutions on their certainty, lock the rest of life's complexity and possibility in a closet (or a jail) and call that ... economics.
The physical enclosures that drove people from their common land and forced them into dependence on wage jobs over the course of the 16th to 18th centuries in Europe, and that robbed indigenous peoples of their lives and land, were accompanied and supported by the conceptual enclosures that made the story of "the economy." These are two sides of the same coin. And this process of double enclosure is ongoing. It is called "privatization," "colonialism," "neoliberalism," "development," and "economics 101."v The economy has to be made continually, and it is made by institutions that enforce this story on us, that put us in debt to its dependency-machine, that steal our labor, our ideas and our futures in the name of our own best interests. It is made by convincing us that its story is true, and then punishing us when we fail to act accordingly.I find this argument about the conceptual enclosure effected by neoclassical economics to be very liberating. And on the day when NYC police used force to re-enlose Zucotti Park, it's good to be reminded of these larger signs of hope.

An email substitute??? I'm listening…
This is the teaser page for Mailbox, a new product by the Orchestra team. I can't say too much yet, but I've seen what they're up to (we are investors, after all). It's potentially game changing when it comes to email. And those who follow my email saga closely will know that I would not say that lightly.
They have a bit more about the process of evolving from Orchestra to Mailbox here. The best excerpt:
At first the idea seemed crazy. Email felt like this massive thing that startups don't mess with. "This path is paved with corpses," one friend told us. To be really blunt, we were scared. But as we explored the idea and the capacity of our team to tackle it, we felt emboldened. We realized we could apply everything we had learned about building fast, friendly, mobile collaboration tools to the inbox. We can't replace email, but we can change how we interact with it.
Bingo. It's not about replacing email. That has been tried and tried and tried and failed and failed and failed. It's about changing the way we perceive email.
Mailbox is not quite done yet, but it will be worth the wait. Trust me.

Where the network cable goes in And stops my packets from wandering Where they willl gooooooo-ooooo Oh oh oh oh oh oh So, I have a Dell desktop I bought the last time I needed a PC and didn't feel like building one (a couple of years back). The network adapter is flaking out on it and needs to be replaced. OH WOOPS they're baked into the mother board now. I'm using wireless currently. Given that my desktop PC is about 3 feet from my wireless base station this may not be much of an issue. But I am putting up a poll so you can make decisions for me!
My answer depends on whether you have other devices you can directly connect via cable to your base station/router/modem/whatever if the need were to arise. If the time ever comes where you need to install a firmware update of some sort into one of those types of devices you wouldn't want to be doing that via Wi-Fi, as you'd likely as not brick whatever it is you're updating. I've also felt the need to be a bit more cautious about managing certain permissions and settings on certain types of hardware while directly connected, in case I stupidly block my own Wi-Fi access or something in inadvertently. If you don't think firmware updates and the like are a future concern, or you already have other devices you can connect in a pinch, then I see no reason not to stick to wireless.
GbE >>> Any wireless currently known to man. Get the NIC. You don't even need to go to that length. Just having it unplugged makes it a nonfactor as far as everything else goes. This is as close to plug and play as you'll get, Lum. Super easy.
I say we take off and nuke the site from orbi.... sorry. FFS buy an iMac. It'll work, look sexy and piss off so many other people that the day that government/private enterprise learns to generate power off envy/shadenfruede/nerdrage we'll all be sorted.
The important thing is to fill the old Ethernet jack with epoxy or modeling clay so no packets leak out where you can smell them.
I purchased an ethernet to USB adapter for my laptop after a similar problem, and haven't had any problems with it in the last three months.

Some of you may remember my little rant against a product called Digestrol, which was marketed with the biggest pile of unadulterated tripe I have ever seen (take Digestrol now or you will need surgery to cure your IBS!). Well, the FDA discovered why it was such tripe – the company owners were criminals, and they've now been thrown in jail. Hurray!
The facts of the case show just how easy it is to peddle lies on the internet. Charles Thao and Tony T Pham sold almost $12 million worth of product in two years. Digestrol was just one of their products, sold through a company called Techmedica. They claimed that every pill and potion had been clinically tested, when no testing had been carried out at all. Thao has been sentenced to eight years and Pham to three years, both in federal prison without parole.
So how did they manage to con so many people? They just faked everything. This is a quote from the FDA website: "Pham admitted that he used Techmedica to repackage, sell, market, and distribute unapproved new drugs and misbranded drugs over the Internet. Websites used by Techmedica contained materially false testimonials, product information, and identification of medical professionals."
The conmen simply made up customer testimonials and put them online against stock photos. They even made up a doctor and a nurse to sell their diabetes treatment – Dr Judy Hamilton was actually a Californian model. As was nurse Bethany Hunt.
Every single aspect of their website was garbage. No wonder they didn't seem to know the first little thing about IBS.
So what have we learned from this little escapade? Well, if you didn't know before, please take note now – it is phenomenally easy to lie on the internet. It costs almost nothing to buy a domain name. You read a couple of books and you've got the basics of html. And then you just make stuff up.
Please, please don't buy anything, or swallow anything, or change anything in your own IBS treatment without knowing exactly why you're doing it, and exactly who is advising you to do so. The net has made life so easy for criminals, and the only way to defeat them is to keep our wits about us.
In the meantime, let's just be glad that these particular scumbags are now exactly where they belong.
(You can read more about the case on the FDA website here.)

Remember last week when I mentioned we were anniversarying? I figured it was high time I told you what we were up to!!
We were originally planning to head to Charleston for our 1 year anniversary…as luck would have it (and as you may recall) we ended up having to replace our 2 front windows…definitely an unplanned expense. As we were revisiting the ol' budget, and looking at reservations, we realized that we could still go on our trip, but we both agreed we probably wouldn't enjoy it very much because we would be very conscious of what we were spending which is NOT my idea of a vacation. We had booked tickets with Southwest, so we were able to cancel them and get a credit for their amount for a future flight. Since we're on the go, we know that we'll have no problem using them within the next 12 months.
With our flights cancelled, we were left with an open slate for the week. We decided to partake in a little town exploring since we haven't really done much of that since moving here.
First up? We headed to the winery…now I know we're in Omaha, NE and I didn't have really high expectations for the winery, but it was really pretty and the wine was pretty good to.
Being from the midwest, it's easy to take for granted the luxury of wide open sky where you can see for miles and miles…it's one of my favorite views!
How many years you ask?? Yep, 1!
Tuesday we decided to head down to Nebraska City. I bet you didn't know that Nebraska City is the home of Arbor Day did you?? It's true! We had heard of the arbor day farm and decided to go see what it was all about. Before we could get there though, we needed some fuel, cue delicious small town, hole in the wall cafe.
…and no, Steve's jacket is not dirty, that's the steam from the biscuits and gravy!
My omelet was the size of my head. It was delicious and I clearly only ate about a third of it….
Once we were full, we were ready for our tree adventure…oh look, here comes a tree adventure now!
Steve is ready to commence our tour de tree.
You didn't think I'd just walk by the opportunity to take my picture with a real scarecrow did ya??
Us in a giant spider web we're DEFINITELY too big to be climbing in.
We ended our day with a trip around the farm in the covered wagon. All in all, I would say it's a success and highly recommend it. After the Arbor Day farm, I talked Steve into heading downtown Nebraska City to check out their many MANY thrift stores and antique shops. Somehow, we managed to not walk out with anything and started our drive home.
Wednesday we had a few plans, that included various fun activities like take the load of stuff to the ReStore..seriously, we've been tripping over things for months now, so we loaded the car and off it went. Stuff dropped off, we then headed to the Lauritzen Gardens. We are members and had yet to get there to see what it's about…I knew they had a model train garden and since I'm married to a big kid at heart, we headed in to check it out. I've been to a LOT of model train displays since we started dating, and I have to say, this one impressed me. They put so much work into setting it up!
Yep, loves trains.
From the gardens, we then headed to the zoo to take in the Caves IMAX movie…we had a bit of time before the movie started and we were starving…a quick stop to McDonald's to get a McRib and we were set.
I love them. They are so delicious.
You mean it's not normal to take your picture in the theater before the movie starts?? It's also not normal to go to an IMAX movie for your anniversary? It's the random things people…I go for random.
The rest of Wednesday we broke our rule and did some odds and ends around the house. It felt good to get those misc. things done.
Thursday, our final day of vacation, we headed to the Strategic Air & Space Museum. Steve has wanted to go there since before we moved so I figured it was high time we did so. He loves planes slightly more than trains…
There were a LOT of planes inside…I really wasn't expecting to see 3 hangers full of them! We walked around, read the signs, learned some stuff, and of course, I took pictures.
Flying my fighter plane
The secret to a good self photo is to make sure you are always standing in front of something that still looks cool even if you only get to see a small part of it.
Pilot Steve is taking off in his mini plane
Conversation for this picture went as follows:
Steve- Okay, look smart and sophisticated for this one, there's a lot of buttons up there.
Me- Pose like this
Steve- Takes picture
Me- well, do I look smart and sophisticated?
Steve- Yep!…yeah. Just called me America's Next Top Model!
So there you have it…our random tour to various attractions around the Omaha area. Anyone else like to take trips around your home town but hate the word "staycation"?? Do you have a good smart and sophisticated look for photos? Does your spouse love to read informational signs as much as mine?! Do tell…

The Lakeland College women's soccer team (3-8, 2-2 NAC) snagged its second victory in a row this week with a 7-0 shutout over Northern Athletics Conference opponent Rockford College on Sunday, Sept. 30, in Rockford, Ill.
Freshman forward/midfielder Alicia Malmstadt continued impressive efforts off the bench, knocking in two goals within roughly two minutes of each other to put the Muskies up, 6-0, late in the first half. She also recorded an assist on the Muskies' second goal of the game by sophomore forward Gina Weiss. Malmstadt also kept the Regent's goalkeeper and defensive line on their toes with five of the Muskies' 27 shot attempts for the game.
Junior forward Amy Christenson, freshman forward Maria Santelli and junior defender Maggie Short also helped earn the Muskies a comfortable lead with a goal apiece in the first half. Junior midfielder Megan Stock capped off the Muskies' scoring deluge for the game with a goal in the 86th minute on an assist by sophomore midfielder Jessica Hopfinger.
Senior Savannah Johnson and freshman Whitney England shared time between the posts to pick up the shutout, with England tallying two saves.
Lakeland will look to continue its recent tenacity on offense as it faces a tough NAC opponent, Edgewood College, at home on Tuesday, Oct. 2. Game time is set for 4 p.m.

Hi Forum,
i want to send a Report from my Pentaho Bi Server via Email.
The Report has 2 Parameter, From(Date) and To(Date) and should schedule every week.
The 2 Parameter are dynamical and the Date depends on the current Date. They change when the Report starts up.
Sending via Email works fine with SMTP.
The only Problem is, that sending via Email is not dynamically. The Parameter dont change when the Email is sent.
They are allways the same.
I dont think this is usefull, when you are getting the same report every day/week/month.
Is there any workaround ?

Police are looking for a man who tried to sexually assault two women at knifepoint at their West Side homes.
The man approached a woman entering her residence in the 1700 block of North Humboldt Boulevard about 1:30 a.m. and demanded money a knifepoint, according to a community alert from Area North detectives.
The man then forced the 29-year-old woman into the entryway and attempted to sexually assault her, but she called out for help and the man fled, police said.
The second attack happened about 1:55 a.m. in the 1900 block of North Drake Avenue when a man forced his way inside a home and attempted to sexually assault a woman at knifepoint in her kitchen, the alert said. The woman shouted for help and the man fled.
One neighbor, Angie Perez tells Fox Chicago News, "It's frightening. IF you get off the bus, and there's no one else around..." Another neighbor, Sheila Nelis, says she's lived in the neighborhood for years, and says it's "very unusual" for the neighborhood.

The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is an independent agency created by the National Labor Relations Act of 1935 (Wagner Act; 29 U.S.C. 167). The Board is authorized to designate appropriate units for collective bargaining and to conduct secret ballot elections to determine whether employees desire representation by a labor organization. Activities The NLRB has two principal functions: preventing and remedying unfair labor practices by employers and labor organizations or their agents and conducting secret ballot elections among employees in appropriate collective-bargaining units to determine whether or not they desire to be represented by a labor organization in bargaining with employers about their wages, hours, and working conditions. The agency also conducts secret ballot elections among employees who have been covered by a union-security agreement to determine whether or not they wish to revoke their union's authority to make such agreements. In jurisdictional disputes between two or more unions, the Board determines which competing group of workers is entitled to perform the work involved. The regional directors and their staffs process representation, unfair labor practice, and jurisdictional dispute cases. They issue complaints in unfair labor practice cases; seek settlement of unfair labor practice charges; obtain compliance with Board orders and court judgments; and petition district courts for injunctions to prevent or remedy unfair labor practices. The regional directors direct hearings in representation cases; conduct elections pursuant to the agreement of the parties or the decision-making authority delegated to them by the Board or pursuant to Board directions; and issue certifications of representatives when unions win or certify the results when unions lose employee elections. They process petitions for bargaining unit clarification, for amendment of certification, and for rescission of a labor organization's authority to make a union-shop agreement. They also conduct national emergency employee referendums. Administrative law judges conduct hearings in unfair labor practice cases, make findings of fact and conclusions of law, and recommend remedies for violations found. Their decisions can be appealed to the Board for a final agency determination. The Board's decisions are subject to review in the U.S. courts of appeals.

Science Fair Project Encyclopedia
Egyptian mythology
Egyptian mythology (or Egyptian religion) is the name for the succession of beliefs held by the people of Egypt until the coming of Christianity and Islam.
The timespan involved is nearly three thousand years, and beliefs varied considerably over time, so an article or, indeed, even one whole book, cannot do more than outline the many entities and subjects in this complex system of beliefs. Egyptian Mythology is different from Greek or Roman Mythology, in that in Egyptian Mythology most deities are of human body and animal head or vice versa.
Contents |
- [To do]
- Egyptian Burial Chambers
- Natural mummies
There were several elements to account for.
Egyptians believed they may rlife]]. Egyptians believed that the soul (or the Ka (human personality)) could survive death if the body was preserved. Therefore, embalming and mummification was practiced. The weighing the heart occurred before proceeding to either the afterlife or the devourer.
Book of the dead
Main article: Book of the Dead
The Book of the Dead was a series of almost two hundred magical texts, songs and pictures written on papyrus, which were buried along with the dead in order to ease their passage into the underworld. In some tombs, the Book of the Dead has also been found painted on the walls. One of the best examples of the Book of the Dead is "The Papyrus of Ani", created around 1240 BC . In addition to the texts themselves, it also contains many pictures of Ani and his wife on their journey through the land of the dead.
Egyptians saw death as being the start of a dangerous journey, rather than the end of life. The goal of this journey was to reach the land of the gods. In order to reach the land where the gods dwelt, and to live amongst them, they must first travel through the land of the dead. Each Book of the Dead was tailored to some extent for the individual who would be taking the journey. It contained the spells and hymns thought to be most appropriate to the life that the person had led, as well as the pleas and speeches that would be used to pass each test on the journey. Crucially, these included the test of the Weighing of the Heart.
The weighing of the heart
To the Egyptian, the heart notes all good and bad deeds of a person's life. It was the data that is analyzed in a ceremony, upon death, in a judgment for afterlife. The ceremony of the weighing of the heart occurred in the Hall of Judgement . The deceased is led into the hall by Anupu (Anubis). The deceased's heart is placed on one scale pans and weighed against the Maàt's feather of truth. Anubis then adjusts the scale's plummet . Djehuty (Thoth) records the verdict. The deceased is taken by Hor (Horus) before Ausare (Osiris) after a proper verdict if rendered in favor. The demon Ammit the Devourer, "Eater of Hearts" – part crocodile, part lion, and part hippopotamus – destroys those whom the verdict is against.
(A majority of historians believe that there is no Book of the Dead. It is said that the enchantments were too sacred to be written down on anything. I would best relate this to scops of ancient Anglo-Saxon history).
External influences
Egypt exchanged ideas with Libya during its early unsettled period. Egypt was also influenced by the Greek Ptolemaic dynasties, which ruled Egypt for 300 years. Cleopatra was the only Ptolemaic queen to rule on her own. Egypt was incorporated into the Roman Empire, and was ruled first from Rome and then from Constantinople (until the Arab conquest).
Libyan period
Main article: Libyan Egypt
22nd - 25th Dynasty
Egypt has long had ties with Libya. After the death of Rameses XI, the priesthood in the person of Herihor wrest control of Egypt away from the Pharaohs until they were superseded (without any apparent struggle) by the Libyan kings of the 22nd Dynasty ., The first king of the new Dynasty served as a general under the last ruler of the 21st Dynasty. It is known that he appointed his own son to be the High Priest of Amun, a post that was previously a hereditary appointment. The scant and patchy nature of the written records from this period suggest that it was unsettled. There appear to have been many subversive groups which eventually led to the creation of the 23rd dynasty which ran concurrent with the 22nd .
Ptolemaic period
Main article: Greek Egypt
Started with Ptolemy I of Egypt and ended with Cleopatra VII. As Ptolemy I Soter ("Saviour"), he founded the Ptolemaic dynasty, which was to rule Egypt for 300 years. All the male rulers of the dynasty took the name "Ptolemy". Because the Ptolemaic kings adopted the Egyptian custom of marrying their sisters, many of the kings ruled jointly with their spouses, who were also of the royal house. This custom made Ptolemaic politics confusingly incestuous, and the later Ptolemies were increasingly feeble. The last of the Ptolemies, the famous Cleopatra, was the only Ptolemaic queen to rule on her own, after the death of her brother/husband, Ptolemy XIII.
Roman period
Main article: Roman Egypt
Egypt was incorporated into the Roman Empire, and was ruled first from Rome and then from Constantinople (until the Arab conquest). The most revolutionary event in the history of Roman Egypt was the introduction of Christianity in the 2nd century. It was at first vigorously persecuted by the Roman authorities, who feared religious discord more than anything else in a country where religion had always been paramount. But it soon gained adherents among the Jews of Alexandria. From them it rapidly passed to the Greeks, and then to the native Egyptians, who found its promise of personal salvation and its teachings of social equality appealing.
Monotheism developments
A short period of monotheism (Atenism) occurred under the reign of Akhenaten, focused on the Egyptian sun deity Aten. Akhenaten outlawed the worship of any other god and built a new capital (Amarna) around the temple for Aten. The religious change survived only until the death of Akhenaten's nephew Tutankhamun, being highly unpopular and quickly reverted afterwards. In fact, Akhenaten and Tutankhamun's removals from the Wall of Kings are likely related to the radical religious change.
According to some Egyptologists, it is incorrect to regard this period as monotheistic. People did not worship the Aten but worshipped the royal family as a pantheon of gods who received their divine power from the Aten. Afterward, the original Egyptian pantheon survived more or less as the dominant faith, until the establishment of Coptic Christianity and later Islam, even though the Egyptians had encountered monotheism in other cultures (e.g. Hebrews). Egyptian mythology put up surprisingly little resistance to the spread of Christianity. Possibly its long history of collaboration with the Greek and Roman rulers of Egypt had robbed it of its authority.
Many temples are still standing today. Others are in ruins from wear and tear, while others have been lost entirely. Pharaoh Ramses II was a particularly prolific builder of temples.
Some known temples include:
- Abu Simbel – Complex of two massive rock temples in southern Egypt on the western bank of the Nile.
- Abydos (Great Temple of Abydos) – Adoration of the early kings, whose cemetery, to which it forms a great funerary chapel, lies behind it.
- Ain el-Muftella (Bahariya Oasis ) – Could have served as the city center of El Qasr. It was probably built around the 26th Dynasty.
- Karnak – Once part of the ancient capital of Egypt, Thebes.
- Bani Hasan al Shurruq – Located in Middle Egypt near to Al-Minya and survived the reconstruction of the New Kingdom.
- Edfu – Ptolemaic temple that is located between Aswan and Luxor.
- Temple of Kom Ombo – Controlled the trade routes from Nubia to the Nile Valley.
- Luxor – Built largely by Amenhotep III and Ramesses II, it was the center of the festival of Opet.
- Medinet Habu (Memorial Temple of Ramesses III) – Temple and a complex of temples dating from the New Kingdom.
- Temple of Hatshepsut – Mortuary temple complex at Deir el-Bahri with a colonnaded structure of perfect harmony, built nearly one thousand years before the Parthenon.
- Philae – Island of Philae with Temple of Aset which was constructed in the 30th Dynasty.
- Ramesseum (Memorial Temple of Ramesses II) – The main building, dedicated to the funerary cult, comprised two stone pylons (gateways, some 60 m wide), one after the other, each leading into a courtyard. Beyond the second courtyard, at the centre of the complex, was a covered 48-column hypostyle hall, surrounding the inner sanctuary.
- Dendera Temple complex – Several temples but the all overshadowing building in the complex is the main temple, the Hathor temple.
The World
Ptah ("The Creator") was a creator god and patron deity of craftsmen and king of the underworld. In some myths, he created Ra as well. Mehturt ("great flood"; also Mehurt, Mehet-Weret, Mehet-uret) is the goddess of the part of the sky where the sun exists, i.e. the places where Ra proceedes across the sky. Amun, "the hidden one", was the "lord of the thrones of the two lands," and more proudly still, "king of the gods.". Ra came from the mound that came from the waters of Nu, or a lotus flower. Ra was the "king of the gods": the rule of heaven belonged to the sun-god, and this identification with Re was only logical for a supreme deity. Aten is the name given to the solar disk, who rejoices in the horizon in his name of the light which is in the sun disk.
Order and chaos
Maàt was the goddess of truth, justice and order. Maat is more of a concept of balance, justice, and truth than an actual deity. In the underworld, Ma'at's headband supplied the Feather of Truth.
Seth was a god of strength, war, storms, foreign lands and deserts in Egyptian mythology. He was closely associated with the god Ash. He was 'great of strength' and caused storms, evils, and confusion. Seth protected the sun (Re) as he journeyed through the land of the dead during the night. Most notably, he fought and killed Apep, the evil serpent of darkness who attacked Re each night
Heaven and earth
The Ogdoad created the mound that Ra came from and the mound came from the waters of Nu. Ra was the "king of the gods": the rule of heaven belonged to the sun-god, and this identification with Re was only logical for a supreme deity. Aten is a sun god in ancient Egyptian mythology, and represented by the sun's disk.
Thoth, pronounced "tot", is the Greek name given to Djehuty, the Egyptian god of the moon (lunar deity), wisdom, writing, magic, and measurement of time, among other things. Chons (alternately Khensu, Khons, Khonsu or Khonshu) is also a lunar deity, and a son of Amun and Mut.
Hathor ("the house of Horus") was a fertility goddess, positioned as the celestial cow which encircles the sky and hawk god, Hor (Horus). She was also a goddess of royalty. Hathor was portrayed as a cow with a stylized sun between her horns, or a woman wearing a headdress with horns, the stylized sun and sometimes a uraeus. Hathor was both the daughter and wife of Ra. Hathor and Ra once argued, and she left Egypt. Ra quickly decided he missed her, but she changed into a cat that destroyed any man or god that approached. Thoth, disguised, eventually succeeded in convincing her to return. Bat was another goddess of fertility.
Horus was a falcon-god of law and order, later associated with the sun god Ra where they combined especially at Heliopolis and became "Horus of the two horizons", "Horus upon the horizon", and god of the morning sun. Heru-ur (also called Harmerti) was a falcon creator-god who was known for restraining Apep. His eyes were the sun and the moon; during a new moon, he was blind and was "he who has no eyes" and "he who has eyes". While blind, Horus was quite dangerous, sometimes attacking his friends after mistaking them for enemies. He was a son of Geb and Nut and was the patron god of Sekhem/Sokhmît/Letopolis . "Horus the child" was a son of either Ausare and Aset (Osiris and Isis) or Banebdjetet and Hatmehit. Later Horus became absolutely aligned as a son of the dead body of Osiris and Isis (alternatively: he emerged from Saosis' acacia tree). Horus was Osiris' bodyguard in the underworld, Duat. A war between Set and Horus was fought, lasting for eighty years. Horus was the father of the four gods associated with the canopic jars of Egyptian funerary beliefs: Imset, Hapi, Duamutef, and Kebechsenef.
Ausare (Osiris), the life-death-rebirth deity, was the fertility and agricultural deity. With his wife, Aset (Isis), he was the father of Horus. Ptah was the chthonic god. Chnum was the god of the Nile River delta.
The Nile
Annual Nile flooding was from the solar deity, Hapy ("runner"), and was the symbolization of the annual flood of the Nile River which deposited rich silt on the banks and allowed the Egyptians to grow crops.
The river Nile gave life to the entire Egyptian civilisation. Its annual spring floods bringing water and rich nutrients to fields that would otherwise be swallowed up by the Sahara Desert. The river provided food, transportation, building materials and papyrus. Egypt's new year was deemed to begin at the flooding of the Nile. The river's course, from south to north, was seen as being in perfect harmony with the sun god Ra's daily journey from west to east in his boat across the ocean of sky. It was the Pharaoh's duty each year to influence the gods and bring forth the floods, as well as organising the building and repair of the irrigation systems. His success or failure as a ruler was measured by the prosperity brought by the Nile. The Nile itself did not play a major role in Egyptian religious beliefs. It was known simply as "the river".

Notes on Pronunciation
A "received pronunciation" of the names of ancient Egyptian deities has formed. By and large, this pronunciation is acceptable for most consonants and utterly wrong for the vowels. The actual vowels of ancient Egyptian are essentially unknown. Egyptologists developed a set of conventions to make it easier to talk about the terms they used. Two distinct different glottal consonants were both replaced with "a". A consonant similar to the "y" in the English word "yet" was replaced with "i". A consonant similar to the "w" in the English word "well" was replaced with "u". Then, "e" was inserted between other consonants. Thus, for example, the Egyptian king whose name is most accurately transcribed as "R?-mss" is known as "Rameses", even though cuneiform tablets that mention him suggest that a more accurate rendering with vowels might have been "Ri`amasesa".

Albums You Might Have Missed – 2002
In the third installment of our 100 Albums You Might Have Missed series we look back at the year 2002. Here are 10 great albums that fell below the mainstream rock radar and are more than deserving of some more air time.
The Anniversary – Your Majesty
Released: January, 2002
Although they only recorded two full length albums and were together for a little under 5 years this Kansas based emo band managed to churn out an LP that still sounds inspired 8 years later. The Anniversary's second release Your Majesty showed they were not afraid to take chances and trust their instincts as they developed a more mature and intricate classic rock sound mixed with experimental harmonies and keyboards. Jam packed with plenty of solid rockers this album is distinct, ambitious and one not to be missed.
Released: February, 2002
The Raconteur turns in his finest work to date on this straight up power pop record that manages to stay original and fresh throughout. Benson sings about John Lennon and sounds like McCartney on this short and sweet disc full of good time pop tunes.
Coheed and Cambria – Second Stage Turbine Blade
Released: March, 2002
The first studio album released by the prog-rock band Coheed & Cambria introduces their signature recipe of high-pitched vocals, intense riffing and a flair for the dramatic. The concept album is the second part of an epic five part space saga that covers all their studio albums created by lead singer Claudio Sanchez. It's kinda' weird, super adventurous and it definitely rocks.
Released: April, 2002
While most rock critics might not have missed this one, I won't stop preaching this album until everyone I know has given it an honest listen. A near perfect record that pairs sonic experimentation with some absurdly wonderful song writing, all without alienating the casual listener.
Released: May, 2002
Most people say this album killed The Get Up Kids' momentum gathered from their breakout record "Something To Write Home About", leaving emotional rock artists like Dashboard Confessional to pick up where they left off. I however commend the band for "growing up" and evolving their sound into a more matured, mellower style full of solid riffs, layered elements and seasoned songwriting.
Released: June, 2002
While this album peaked at #1 on the UK Albums Chart (and was a shortlist nominee for the 02 Mercury Prize), the album (and band) are still fairly unknown here in the States. Full of atmospheric waves, pounding guitars and an uplifting take on melancholy themes, this album remains one of my personal all time favorites.
The Flaming Lips – Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
Released: July, 2002
This album hasn't exactly flown under the indie press radar as it's on most every critics' best of 2002 list, yet it's "strange and beautiful" nature still has a mysterious quality that has been missed by many rock fans. The album's lead single "Do You Realize?" probably belongs in a museum but don't let it keep you from the rest of the trippy unique splendor the rest of the album has to offer.
Interpol – Turn On The Bright Lights
Released: October, 2002
Another indie press favorite of 2002, the debut release from NYC rock band Interpol was a slow-building success and remains the lesser known predecessor of their breakout 2004 album, Antics. Striking and haunting at the same time, the album is clearly dark but manages to cover the ominous emotional landscape with gut-wrenching moodiness, driving beats and and penetrating guitars.
The Hellacopters – By The Grace of God
Released: September, 2002
The fifth album by Swedish hard-rockers, The Hellacopters, showcases the band's finely tuned vintage style of arena-rock meets metal with a power pop spin. Packed full of lighting fast guitars, pounding drums and melodic grooves, this record was their most successful in their Swedish homeland. It's ideal for anyone looking to find a "classic" rock sound from a band not collecting social security checks.
Released: November, 2002
His first proper album since 1987′s hit Cloud Nine, and unfortunately the one he never got to hear. Released a year after his death, producer and fellow Wilbury Jeff Lynne teamed with George's son Dhani to complete the album George worked on until his death. The album is full of the low-key, warm and humorous charm that fans of George have always treasured.
