Talk Therapy Linked To Lower Suicide Risk
Posted 5 hours ago by Drugs.com
MONDAY, Nov. 24, 2014 – Talk therapy significantly reduces suicide attempts and deaths among people who have previously attempted suicide, a new study finds. The new research included more than 5,600 people in Denmark who underwent six to 10 talk therapy sessions after they attempted suicide. The study also included more than 17,000 people who attempted suicide but received no treatment afterward. After one year, those who received talk therapy were 27 percent less likely to attempt suicide again. They were also 38 percent less likely to die of any cause than those who didn't receive treatment, the researchers found. After five years, there were 26 percent fewer suicides in the talk therapy group than in the non-treatment group. After 10 years, the suicide rate in the talk therapy group was 229 per 100,000 compared to 314 per 100,000 in the non-treatment group, according to the study. ... Read more

Pain, Depression Tied to Delirium Risk After Surgery for Seniors
Posted 13 days ago by Drugs.com
TUESDAY, Nov. 11, 2014 – Pain and depression before an operation may increase seniors' risk for delirium after surgery, a new study suggests. Rates of delirium after surgery are highest among older patients, occurring in up to 51 percent of those aged 65 and older. Previous research has also shown that depression is a major risk factor for delirium, which is a disoriented state marked by a sharp decrease in attention and mental abilities. This study included 459 patients without dementia, aged 70 and older, who had orthopedic surgery. The patients' pain and depression levels were assessed before surgery. Twenty-three percent of the patients experienced delirium after surgery, the investigators found. Delirium occurred much more often in patients who had depression and pain before surgery, according to the study published recently in The Lancet Psychiatry. Further analyses found that ... Read more

After Breast Cancer, Depression Risk Lingers
Posted 28 Oct 2014 by Drugs.com
TUESDAY, Oct. 28, 2014 – Women who survive breast cancer face a higher risk of depression that can linger and require antidepressants, a new study finds. Researchers in Copenhagen looked at data on nearly 2 million Danish women between 1998 and 2011, all of whom were initially free of cancer. During the study period, they found nearly 45,000 women were diagnosed with breast cancer. The risk of having to check into a hospital for severe depression was 70 percent higher for the breast cancer patients in the first year after diagnosis than their cancer-free peers. The breast cancer patients were also three times more likely to use antidepressants during the first year after diagnosis. And that depression did not go away quickly, said lead researcher Dr. Christoffer Johansen, a professor of oncology at the Danish Cancer Society Research Center. The women diagnosed with breast cancer used ... Read more

Even Depression May Not Dim Thoughts of Bright Future
Posted 27 Oct 2014 by Drugs.com
MONDAY, Oct. 27, 2014 – Even adults with depression are generally optimistic about the future, a new study shows. But that finding carries its own caveat, the researchers added. "It turns out that even clinically depressed individuals are also characterized by the belief that one's life in the future will be more satisfying than one's past and current life," lead researcher Michael Busseri, a psychological scientist at Brock University in Canada, said in an Association for Psychological Science news release. "And this pattern of beliefs appears to be a risk factor for future depression, even over a 10-year period," he said. But psychologists and counselors could possibly turn that into a positive, Busseri added. "The fact that even depressed individuals can envision their lives being more satisfying in the future may provide clinicians and mental health workers with a valuable new ... Read more

Colleges Could Do More for Students With Chronic Ills, Study Finds
Posted 27 Oct 2014 by Drugs.com
MONDAY, Oct. 27, 2014 – Many college health centers may lack the resources to fully care for students with chronic health conditions, a new study suggests. The research, published online Oct. 27 in the journal Pediatrics, surveyed health center directors at 153 U.S. colleges. It found that while most felt their center could care for students with asthma or depression, only half thought they could manage diabetes. And despite the confidence in their asthma and depression care, most centers did not actively identify incoming students with chronic health problems. Only one-quarter contacted those students to encourage them to make an first-time appointment. Often, college health centers are limited in what they can do, due to tight budgets, experts said. "Many have seen their funding cut significantly, and some colleges are now 'outsourcing' health services," said Dr. Terrill Bravender, a ... Read more

'Exposure Therapy' May Relieve Prolonged Grief Disorder
Posted 23 Oct 2014 by Drugs.com
THURSDAY, Oct. 23, 2014 – Reliving the death of a loved one may help people with prolonged grief disorder, a new study suggests. Exposure therapy, as this approach is called, appears to help survivors struggling with prolonged grief better than another type of therapy alone, the study found. Prolonged grief disorder, also called complicated grief, is an ongoing yearning for a dead loved one. It's associated with emotional pain, difficulty accepting the death, a sense of meaninglessness and bitterness, and difficulty engaging in new activities. "Prolonged grief disorder is a big public health issue," said lead researcher Richard Bryant, a professor of psychology at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia. "We know that 7 to 10 percent of all bereaved people will develop prolonged grief disorder," he said. Prolonged grief disorder leads to mental health problems, suicidal ... Read more

Teen Conflicts Spill Over to Other Areas of Their Lives
Posted 23 Oct 2014 by Drugs.com
THURSDAY, Oct. 23, 2014 – Teens' conflicts at home increase the risk of problems at school for up to two days, according to a new study. The research also found that the reverse is true: school problems can create issues at home. Additionally, the study found that bad mood and mental health symptoms such as depression and anxiety are important factors in what's referred to as "spillover effect." Problems that can spill over between home and school include arguments between teens and their parents, skipping class, not completing assignments, difficulty understanding school work, and doing poorly on a quiz or test, the University of Southern California researchers explained. For example, failing a test could cause a teen to be irritable, which in turn could lead to an argument with parents. The researchers also found that teens with more symptoms of anxiety and depression were more ... Read more

Depression After Heart Attack May Be More Common for Women
Posted 22 Oct 2014 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, Oct. 22, 2014 – Women are at greater risk for anxiety and depression after a heart attack than men, a new study finds. Researchers looked at 160 patients in Lithuania who were interviewed at least one month after suffering a heart attack. About one-quarter of the patients were depressed and 28 percent of those had been treated with antidepressants. Women were more likely than men to have depression and anxiety, and the conditions were more severe in women, according to the findings presented Sunday in Geneva at the annual meeting of the Acute Cardiovascular Care Association of the European Society of Cardiology. Further research is needed to determine why women are more likely than men to develop anxiety and depression after a heart attack, study author Dr. Pranas Serpytis of Vilnius University in Lithuania said in an association news release. The study showed smokers were ... Read more

Upbeat Walking Style Might Lift Your Mood
Posted 17 Oct 2014 by Drugs.com
FRIDAY, Oct. 17, 2014 – The way you walk can affect your mood, according to a new study. Previous research has shown that depressed people move differently from happy people, according to study co-author Nikolaus Troje, a senior fellow at the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research. "It is not surprising that our mood, the way we feel, affects how we walk, but we want to see whether the way we move also affects how we feel," he said in an institute news release. For this study, participants were shown a list of positive and negative words – words like "pretty" and "afraid." They were then asked to walk on a treadmill in either a depressed style – with their shoulders rolled forward and limited arm movement – or in a bouncier, happier way. After they got off the treadmill, the volunteers were asked to recall the words they were shown before they began walking. Those who walked in a ... Read more

Family Acceptance Key to Curbing Teen Suicides, Study Shows
Posted 17 Oct 2014 by Drugs.com
FRIDAY, Oct. 17, 2014 – Family rejection could be potentially deadly for teens already at risk for suicide, a new study has found. When teens were followed six months after discharge from a psychiatric unit for attempting suicide, the majority of boys and girls reported feeling family or peer "invalidation" at the time of discharge. "Family invalidation refers to a lack of acceptance of individuals' sense of self and their emotions," said lead researcher Shirley Yen, an associate professor of psychiatry at the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University in Providence, R.I. "This could mean anything from not accepting an aspect of their child's identity or preferences, such as sexuality, to telling their child they should not feel the way they do, such as feeling depressed or anxious." Yen said that parents may actually be supportive of their teens in other ways but could still ... Read more

More Evidence That Exercise May Help Fight Depression
Posted 16 Oct 2014 by Drugs.com
THURSDAY, Oct. 16, 2014 – Physically active people are less likely to show signs of depression, a new study finds. And exercise can help improve mood in people who already feel depressed, but there's a catch: Depressive symptoms appear to be a barrier to physical activity, the British researchers said. The findings, based on 11,000 adults ages 23 to 50, correlate with previous research suggesting that exercise can have a powerful effect on depression, although it's far from a cure-all. "Exercise is good for you," said Dr. Madhukar Trivedi, a leading researcher into the effects of physical activity who wasn't involved in the study. "It improves your mental health and lowers your chances of getting depressed." It may seem obvious that exercise improves mood, but it's been difficult to prove scientifically. One of the challenges is that depressed people tend to be withdrawn and don't want ... Read more

Obesity and Depression Often Twin Ills, Study Finds
Posted 16 Oct 2014 by Drugs.com
THURSDAY, Oct. 16, 2014 – Depression and obesity tend to go hand in hand, U.S. health officials reported Thursday. The combination was so common that 43 percent of depressed adults were also obese, according to the report. That association was even more prevalent among those taking antidepressants: 55 percent of those patients were also obese. Report author Laura Pratt, an epidemiologist at the U.S. National Center for Health Statistics, could not explain why or how obesity and depression are so often linked. "We are just describing the relationship, but we don't have anything in our data that would help us answer the why question," she said. The researchers do know that as the severity of depression increases so does the odds of being obese, Pratt said. However, the study did not prove a cause-and-effect relationship. In addition, gender and race played a role in the connection ... Read more

Teen Girls May Face Greater Risk of Depression
Posted 15 Oct 2014 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, Oct. 15, 2014 – Teen girls have more relationship-related stress than boys, which puts them at greater risk for depression, a new study finds. Nearly 400 white and black American teens underwent an assessment for depression and then had three follow-up assessments at about seven-month intervals. Girls tended to have more depressive symptoms during the follow-up than boys. Boys' depressive symptoms seemed to decrease during follow-up, while girls' depressive symptoms did not. Further investigation showed that girls had more relationship-related stress (such as fights with parents or friends) than boys, which increased their risk for depression, according to the authors of the study published online recently in the journal Clinical Psychological Science. "These findings draw our focus to the important role of stress as a potential causal factor in the development of ... Read more

Exercise May Not Ward Off Teen Depression
Posted 14 Oct 2014 by Drugs.com
TUESDAY, Oct. 14, 2014 – Although exercise has long been thought to help improve the symptoms of depression, teenagers may not reap these benefits, a new British study suggests. The study found that physical activity levels in early teen years didn't appear to affect rates of depression in later teen years. "Those participants who were more physically active in early adolescence did not subsequently have significantly lower (or higher) depressive symptoms or significantly altered odds of depressive disorders in later adolescence," the study authors wrote. "Although it is important to promote physical activity because of its well-documented effect on physical health, during adolescence, physical activity may not serve as a strong protective factor of developing depressive symptoms or disorders," they added. However, some U.S. experts questioned the findings based on the study's design, ... Read more

Weight-Loss Surgery May Not Always Help With Depression
Posted 6 Oct 2014 by Drugs.com
FRIDAY, Oct. 3, 2014 – While most severely obese people get a mood boost after weight-loss surgery, some may have a recurrence of depression symptoms months after they have the procedure, a new study finds. The study included 94 women and 13 men who were asked about their mood before having weight-loss surgery, and again six and 12 months after the procedure. Most people had a normal or improved mood after weight-loss surgery, but some said they had negative mood changes. At 12 months after the operation, almost 4 percent of patients said they felt more depressed than before the procedure, the investigators found. Even more patients (about 13 percent) reported increases in depressive symptoms between six and 12 months after weight-loss surgery, according to the study published recently in the journal Obesity Surgery. There was also a significant association between negative mood ... Read more

U.S. Senate -- CVF Supported Conservatives Win
And A Note From Cory Gardner's Campaign to You and Conservative Victory Fund
The voters of Colorado spoke in a loud and clear voice for a new direction.
They want progress on putting America back to work and making our nation more secure. Coloradans want to send a message to the world that America still believes in what made us great -- an unyielding belief that a brighter horizon is always within our reach. Cory calls it "an America on the Rise."
They also want people in government to do their job. Get it done... and then get government the heck out of the way.
Thanks for your interest in Cory and in Cory's campaign for the U.S. Senate. As promised, we DID get it done.
Thanks to Your Support, Conservative Victory Fund Helped Elect and Re-Elect Solid Conservatives Across the Country
Conservative Victory Fund candidates have led the charge bolstering the Republican majority by 13 seats, a total of 243 seats -- almost a 100 year record. Because of your support CVF helped elect strong conservatives including Ken Buck of Colorado, Alex Mooney of West Virginia, and Jody Hice of Georgia, Frank Guinta of New Hampshire. They will be a strong voice for conservative principles and help lead the House in putting a check on the overzealous Obama Administration.
CVF supported solid conservatives also won in races in states like California, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Wisconsin, Washington Kentucky, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, Nevada, Michigan, Virginia, and Maryland.
Your support is making a difference.
November Elections: Becoming a Ripple or a Wave?
The Congressional Generic Vote (how many will vote for a Republican or Democrat generic candidate) often tells an interesting tale. In 2010 it forecast the Republican takeover of the U.S. House. The mainstream media has been saying that 2014 is no wave election year.
Each week Real Clear Politics averages the Congressional Generic Vote. And it's getting interesting.
On August 27, Democrats lead Republicans by 1.4%; by September 3 Democrats lead shrunk to 0.5%. By September 10, Republicans were in the lead by 1.6%. By September 17, the Republican lead had increased to 3.5%. If this trend continues, the Democrats are in trouble.
In 2010 when Republicans swept the House, the generic ballot began shifting in early July in favor of Republicans and never looked back. By this time in 2010, Republicans had a +4.5% lead over Democrats and finished that year +9.4%.
Several difference over 2010 include stronger Republican Senate candidates and not as many opportunities to pick up House seats as Republicans and conservatives in particular have won many of those that were available.
Is a wave developing or is this just going to be a ripple election? The next few weeks will tell the story.
New Strong Conservatives Elected To U.S. House Of Representatives
Your Help Made it Possible
The new Congress will see almost three dozen new Republican Members of Congress. Of these, many are future conservative leaders. They include:
- Tom Cotton (AR-04) is a principled conservative who graduated from Harvard College and Harvard Law School. He left his law practice to volunteer for the Army and declined a JAG offer to be an infantryman. In 2006, he was platoon leader in Iraq with the 101st Airborne. In 2008, he volunteered to go to Afghanistan. Your CVF endorsed him in the primary and helped him to win election. He will be a conservative leader and spokesman in Congress.
- Matt Salmon (AZ-05) is once again going to be an outstanding representative for Arizona and the nation. Matt is a conservative leader who does what he says he will do. Having served in Congress before, Matt will hit the ground running.
- Ron DeSantis (FL-06) is another solid conservative that Conservative Victory Fund endorsed in the primary. He is a graduate of Yale and a magna cum laude graduate of Harvard Law School. To help put himself through college, he worked at many jobs including sweeping floors, parking cars, working as an electrician's assistant and more. He is also a veteran of Iraq. He has served as federal prosecutor and a military prosecutor. He is a strong defender of the Constitution and wrote a book Dreams From Our Founding Fathers: First Principles in the Age of Obama.
- Jackie Walorski (IN-02) started her career as a television reporter. As a member of the Indiana legislature, she fought for lower taxes and cutting spending. Jackie has a record of standing up for conservatism while a member of the Indiana State Legislature. She will do the same in the U.S. House.
- Kerry Bentivolio (MI-11) was not supposed to win. Establishment Republicans first tired to defeat him with a write-in candidate. But it didn't work. He is a small government conservative who understands that centralizing power reduces liberty. He and his wife have lived on the same farm since 1982. He is an educator, a veteran who served in Vietnam and Iraq, and an educator. His favorite leader is still Ronald Reagan.
CVF Conservative of the Day
Paul Broun Jr. (GA)
Representative Paul Broun, Jr. was first elected to Congress in a special election in 2007. From his first day in office he has become know as one who puts the Constitution in a prime place in his decisions. He has a "Four Way Test" to judge every bill before Congress: "1) Is it moral/right? 2) Is it constitutional? 3) Is it necessary? 4) Is it affordable?"
Broun is a leader in the push for fiscal responsibility. He has voted against bailouts and has sponsored an amendment to the Constitution that would require the balancing of the federal budget. This amendment is gaining the support of his colleagues.
Paul Broun is not a career politician but an old-fashioned physician who even made house calls to his patients. Conservative Victory supports conservatives - and only conservatives for election to the U.S. House and U.S. Senate. That's why Conservative Victory Fund supported Paul Broun when he first ran in the special election in2007 and continue to support his reelections.

How can plants benefit your working environment?
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
National Plants at Work Week - an annual event to raise awareness of the benefits that plants bring to the working environment - kicked off today, with the involvement of three UK-GBC members.
The event, organised by UK-GBC member eFIG (the European Federation of Interior-landscape Group), and partnered by fellow members Urban Planters and Indoor Garden Design, is now in it second year and runs until Friday, 18 July.
It highlights research which suggets plants help improve building occupants' well-being, increase air quality and contribute to more productive offices.
Research carried out by the University of Exeter and Indoor Garden Design in 2013 found that office plants can assist in boosting staff productivity by 38 per cent, increase well-being by 47 per cent and increase creativity by 45 per cent.
The week's organisers are encouraging businesses to get involved by setting up pop-up offices with plenty of greenery and by using the hashtag #plantsatworkweek on Twitter.
For more information on National Plants at Work Week, vist the page or eFIG's synopsis of research on the subject here.

Real tennis
Real tennis – one of several games sometimes called "the sport of kings" – is the original racquet sport from which the modern game of lawn tennis (usually simply called tennis) is descended. It is also known as court tennis in the United States,[1] formerly royal tennis in England and Australia[2] but now real tennis, and courte-paume in France (a reference to the older, racquetless game of jeu de paume, the ancestor of modern handball and racquet games; many French real tennis courts are at jeu de paume clubs).
The term real was first used by journalists in the early 20th century as a retronym to distinguish the ancient game from modern lawn tennis (even though the latter sport is seldom contested on lawns these days outside the few social-club-managed estates such as Wimbledon). Players of real tennis often call the game tennis, while continuing to refer to the more widely played derivative as lawn tennis.[citation needed]
Real tennis is still played on about 43 surviving courts in the United Kingdom, Australia, the United States, and France. Despite a documented history of courts existing in the German states from the 17th century, the sport evidently[according to whom?] died out there during or after the World War II reconstruction. The sport is supported and governed by various organizations around the world.
Game description[edit]
The rules and scoring are similar to those of lawn tennis, which derives from real tennis, but are more complex. Although in both sports game scoring is by fifteens (with the exception of 40, which was shortened from forty-five), in real tennis, six games wins a set, without the need for a 2 game buffer as in lawn tennis[3] although some tournaments play up to 9 games per set. A match is typically best of three sets, except for the major open tournaments, in which matches are best of five sets for men, and the best of three sets for women.
Unlike the latex-based technology underlying the modern lawn-tennis ball, the game still uses a cork-based ball very close in design to the original balls used in the game. The 2 1⁄2-inch (64 mm) diameter balls are handmade and consist of a core made of cork with fabric tape tightly wound around it and covered with a hand-sewn layer of heavy, woven, woollen cloth, traditionally "Melton" cloth (not felt, which is unwoven and not strong enough to last as a ball covering). The balls are traditionally white, but around the end of the 20th century "optic yellow" was introduced for improved visibility, as was done years earlier in lawn tennis. The balls are much less bouncy than lawn tennis balls, and weigh about 2 1⁄2 ounces (71 grams) (lawn tennis balls typically weigh 2 ounces).
The 27-inch (690 mm) short, asymmetrical racquets are made of wood and use very tight nylon strings to cope with the heavy balls. The racquet head is shaped to make it easier to strike balls close to the floor or in corners, and to facilitate a fast shot with a low trajectory that is difficult for an opponent to return. There are only two companies in the world hand-crafting these racquets: Grays of Cambridge (UK) and Harrow Sports (US) based in Denver, Colorado.
There are two basic designs in existence today - jeu quarré which is an older design and jeu à dedans. The court at Falkland Palace is a jeu quarré design which unlike jeu à dedans court lacks a tambour and dedans. The more common real tennis court (jeu à dedans) is a very substantial building (encompassing an area wider and longer than a lawn tennis court, with high walls and a ceiling lofty enough to contain all but the highest lob shots). It is enclosed by walls on all four sides, three of which have sloping roofs, known as "penthouses", beneath which are various openings ("galleries", from which spectators may view the game and which also play a role in scoring points), and a buttress that intrudes into the playing area (tambour) off which shots may be played. There are no "standard dimensions" for courts. Most are about 110 by 39 feet (34 m × 12 m) above the penthouses, and about 96 by 32 feet (29.3 m × 9.8 m) on the playing floor, varying by a foot or two per court. They are doubly asymmetric: each end of the court differs in shape from the other, and the left and right sides of the court are also different.
Manner of play[edit]
The service is always made from the same end of the court (the "service" end); a good service must touch the side penthouse (above and to the left of the server) on the receiver's ("hazard") side of the court before first touching the floor in a marked area on that side. There are numerous and widely varying styles of service. These are given descriptive names to distinguish them – examples are "railroad", "bobble", "poop", "piqué", "boomerang", and "giraffe".
The game has many other complexities. For instance, when the ball bounces twice on the floor at the service end, the serving player does not generally lose the point. Instead a "chase" is called where the ball made its second bounce and the server gets the chance, later in the game, to "play off" the chase from the receiving end; but to win the point being played off, his shot's second bounce must be further from the net (closer to the back wall) than the shot he originally failed to reach. A chase can also be called at the receiving ("hazard") end, but only on the half of that end nearest the net; this is called a "hazard" chase.
Those areas of the court in which chases can be called are marked with lines running across the floor, parallel to the net, generally about 1-yard (0.91 m) apart – it is these lines by which the chases are measured. Additionally, a player can gain the advantage of serving only through skillful play (viz. "laying" a "chase", which ensures a change of end). This is in stark contrast to lawn tennis, where players alternately serve and receive entire games. In real tennis the service can only change during a game, and it is not uncommon to see a player serve for several consecutive games till a chase be made. Indeed, in theory, an entire match could be played with no change of service, the same player serving every point.
The heavy, solid balls take a great deal of spin, which often causes them to rebound from the walls at unexpected angles. For the sake of a good chase (close to the back wall), it is desirable to use a cutting stroke, which imparts backspin to the ball, causing it to come sharply down after hitting the back wall.
Another twist to the game comes from the various window-like openings ('galleries') below the penthouse roofs that, in some cases, offer the player a chance to win the point instantly when the ball is hit into the opening (in other cases, these windows create a "chase"). Effectively, these are "goals" to be aimed for. The largest such opening, located behind the server, is called the "dedans" and must often be defended on the volley from hard hit shots, called "forces", coming from the receiving ("hazard") side of the court. The resulting back-court volleys and the possibility of hitting shots off the side walls and the sloping penthouses give many interesting shot choices not available in lawn tennis. Moreover, because of the weight of the balls, the small racquets, and the need to defend the rear of the court, many lawn tennis strategies, such as playing with topspin, and serve-and-volley tactics, are ineffective.
The term "tennis" is thought to derive from the French word tenez, which means "take heed" – a warning from the server to the receiver. Real tennis evolved, over three centuries, from an earlier ball game played around the 12th century in France. This had some similarities to palla, fives, pelota, or handball, in that it involved hitting a ball with a bare hand and later with a glove. This game may have been played by monks in monastery cloisters, but the construction and appearance of courts more resemble medieval courtyards and streets than religious buildings. By the 16th century, the glove had become a racquet, the game had moved to an enclosed playing area, and the rules had stabilized. Real tennis spread across Europe, with the Papal Legate reporting in 1596 that there were 250 courts in Paris alone, near the peak of its popularity in France.[4]
Royal interest in England began with Henry V (reigned 1413–22) but it was Henry VIII (reigned 1509–47) who made the biggest impact as a young monarch, playing the game with gusto at Hampton Court on a court he had built in 1530, when he was in his late thirties (Born 28 June 1491) and on several other courts in his palaces. It is believed that his second wife Anne Boleyn was watching a game of real tennis when she was arrested and that Henry was playing tennis when news was brought to him of her execution. Queen Elizabeth I was a keen spectator of the game. During the reign of James I (1603–25), there were 14 courts in London.[5]
In France, François I (1515–47) was an enthusiastic player and promoter of real tennis, building courts and encouraging play among both courtiers and commoners. His successor, Henry II (1547–59), was also an excellent player and continued the royal French tradition. The first known book about tennis, Trattato del Giuoco della Palla was written during his reign, in 1555, by an Italian priest, Antonio Scaino da Salo. Two French kings died from tennis-related episodes – Louis X of a severe chill after playing and Charles VIII after striking his head on the lintel of a door leading to the court in Amboise. King Charles IX granted a constitution to the Corporation of Tennis Professionals in 1571, creating a career for the 'maître paumiers' and, establishing three levels of professionals – apprentice, associate, and master. The first codification of the rules of real tennis was written by a professional named Forbet and published in 1599.[6]
The game thrived among the 17th-century nobility in France, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands and in the Habsburg Empire, but suffered under English Puritanism, as it was heavily associated with gambling. By the Age of Napoleon, the royal families of Europe were besieged and real tennis, a court game, was largely abandoned.[7] Real tennis played a role in the history of the French Revolution, through the Tennis Court Oath, a pledge signed by French deputies in a real tennis court, which formed a decisive early step in starting the revolution. During the 18th century and early 19th century, as real tennis declined, new racquets sports emerged in England: rackets and squash racquets.
In Victorian England, real tennis had a revival, but broad public interest later shifted to the new, much less difficult outdoor game of lawn tennis, which soon became the more popular sport, and was played by both genders (real tennis players were almost exclusively male). Real tennis courts were built in Hobart, Australia (1875) and in the United States, starting in 1876 in Boston, and in New York in 1890, and later at athletic clubs in several other cities. Real tennis greatly influenced the game of stické, which was invented in the 19th century and combined aspects of real tennis, lawn tennis and rackets.
Real Tennis has the longest line of consecutive world champions of any sport in the world, dating from 1760.
There are a total of 43 real tennis courts remaining, and over half of these are in Britain. The newest real tennis court was opened in 2008 at Radley College, near Oxford, England, but in August 2012 at the Racquet Club of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois, a court built in 1922 was re-opened. .
Some particularly noteworthy courts in the UK are:
- The Queen's Club, London: Opened in 1886, is the National headquarters of the governing body of real tennis, the Tennis and Rackets Association, and hosts the British Open every year.
- Falkland Palace, Fife, Scotland: The oldest court in the world for real tennis, opened in 1539, currently home of the Falkland Palace Royal Tennis Club.
- Royal Tennis Court, Hampton Court Palace: The oldest surviving real tennis court in England, built on the site of an even older (1528) court in the 1620s, where the game can be watched by the general public during British Summer Time.
- The Manchester Club: Originated in 1874, the current club on Blackfriars Road was built in 1880.
- Jesmond, Newcastle: The court is situated on Matthew Bank near Jesmond Dene park, was built in 1894 for Sir Andrew Noble, the then-owner of Jesmond Dene House as a private court. It is now a listed building.
- Canford, Dorset: Sir Ivor Guest opened the court at Canford in 1879, although there had been an earlier court built in the grounds of the manor house dating back to 1541. It is still in use in a building that belongs to Canford School and also now houses four squash courts.
- Prested Hall, Colchester:
Noteworthy courts in the United States include:
- The Racquet Club of Philadelphia: Founded in 1889, current location constructed in 1907 by noted architect Horace Trumbauer.
- The Tennis and Racquet Club, Boston, MA: One of the oldest courts in the US, opened in 1902.
- The Racquet and Tennis Club, NY: New York City's famously exclusive tennis club, contains two real tennis courts built in 1918.
- Prince's Court, McLean, VA: The newest court in the United States, opened in 1997 and has a glass viewing wall.
- National Tennis Club in Newport, RI: Located in the 'Newport Casino" now known as the International Tennis Hall of Fame. Home of Jen Winthrop.
- The Tuxedo Club in Tuxedo Park, NY: Private member-owned country club. Its many sports facilities include court tennis. The court building was constructed between 1890 and 1900.
- The Aiken Tennis Club: in Aiken, South Carolina founded in 1898 by William C. Whitney political leader, financier and a key figure in the prominent Whitney family. The court building was constructed in 1902.
- The Racquet Club of Chicago Renovated and re-opened for real tennis.
Other noteworthy courts elsewhere in the World:
- Palace of Fontainebleau, France: the largest real tennis court in the world, and one of the few publicly owned.[8]
- Lambay Island, Ireland: On the privately owned Lambay Island (approx 5 km off the coast near Dublin, Ireland).
In literature[edit]
Tennis is mentioned in literature from the 16th century onwards. It is frequently shown in emblem books, such as those of Guillaume de La Perrière from 1539. Erasmus lets two students practice Latin during a game of tennis with a racquet in 1522, although the playing ground is not mentioned.[9] A 1581 translation of Ovid's Metamorphoses by Giovanni Andrea dell'Anguillara, printed in Venice in quarto form transforms the fatal discus game between Apollo and Hyacinth into a fatal game of real tennis, or "racchetta."
William Shakespeare mentions the game in Act I — Scene II of Henry V; the Dauphin, a French Prince, sends King Henry a gift of tennis-balls, out of jest, in response to Henry's claim to the French throne. King Henry replies to the French Ambassadors: "His present and your pains we thank you for: When we have matched our rackets to these balls, we will, in France, by God's grace, play a set [that] shall strike his father's crown into the hazard ... And tell the pleasant Prince this mock of his hath turn'd his balls to gun stones". Michael Drayton makes a similar reference to the event in his The battaile of Agincourt, published in 1627.
The final line of Milton's sonnet On His Blindness (c. 1655) contains a possible tennis pun: "They also serve who only stand and wait".
The Penguin book of Sick Verse includes a poem by William Lathum comparing life to a tennis-court:
If in my weak conceit, (for selfe disport),
The world I sample to a Tennis-court,
Where fate and fortune daily meet to play,
I doe conceive, I doe not much misse-say.
All manner chance are Rackets, wherewithall [sic]
They bandie men, from wall to wall;
Some over Lyne, to honour and great place,
Some under Lyne, to infame and disgrace;
Some with a cutting stroke they nimbly sent
Into the hazard placed at the end; ...
The Scottish gothic novel The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner by James Hogg (1824) describes a tennis match that degenerates into violence.
The detective story Dead Nick takes place in a tennis milieu. The title alludes to a shot that hits "the nick" (where the wall meets the floor), called "dead" because it then bounces very little and is frequently unreturnable.
Hazard Chase (1964), by Jeremy Potter, is a thriller-detective story featuring real tennis on the court at Hampton Court Palace. During the story the game is explained, and the book contains a diagram of a real tennis court. Jeremy Potter wrote historical works (including Tennis and Oxford (1994)), and was himself an accomplished player of the game, winning the World Amateur Over-60s Championship in 1986.
The First Beautiful Game: Stories of Obsession in Real Tennis (2006) by top amateur player Roman Krznaric contains a mixture of real tennis history, memoir and fiction, which focuses on what can be learned from real tennis about the art of living.
The Corpse on the Court (2013) is a mystery by Simon Brett. It features the recurring lead character of Jude learning many details about the sport from aficionados.
In film[edit]
Real tennis is featured in the film The Seven-Per-Cent Solution, a fictional meeting between Sherlock Holmes and Sigmund Freud. One of the film's plot points turns on Freud playing a grudge match with a Prussian nobleman (in lieu of a duel). The film The French Lieutenant's Woman includes a sequence featuring a few points being played. Also The Three Musketeers (1973) and Ever After briefly feature the game. Although presented with varying degrees of accuracy, these films provide a chance to see the game played, which otherwise may be difficult to observe personally. The Showtime series The Tudors (2007) portrays Henry the VIII playing the game. In the film version of Tom Stoppard's Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead the two lead characters play the game Questions in a Real Tennis court, scoring points as if playing the game.
Televised matches[edit]
Real Tennis has occasionally been televised, but the court (which does not well lend itself to the placement of cameras), the speed at which the ball travels, and the complexity of the rules all militate against the effectiveness and popularity of televised programming. Web-streaming is proving a helpful innovation, and realtennis.tv broadcast its first tournament, the European Open, from 8th-9 March 2011. There were three 'main events' shown; the two men's semi finals and the men's final. The final was between Bryn Sayers and Robert Fahey, with Fahey taking the title in four sets, 2-6, 6-3, 6-0, 6-5.
Notable players[edit]
- Chris Ronaldson: World Champion, 1981-1987 and, in 1984, was the first player to win the Grand slam of real tennis Open Championships (British, Australian, US and French) . The first of his family to become a real tennis professional (at the Oxford University Club in 1971), he has, arguably, had the greatest influence of any player in the history of the game, to which he has made a vast contribution. He has revolutionised the role of the club professional, improving pay, conditions and status, reorganised the professionals' association and tournaments, from the World Championship downwards, has had significant influence on the game's rules and equipment. Chris is regarded as the leading authority and analyst of almost every aspect of the game and is the first port of call for any new-build or court renovation project. It is doubtful whether the game would have survived the 1970s without his efforts, and have thrived without his influence, passion and dedication. He has done much to increase the game's appeal and has been a consistent supported of junior and women's tennis. He was one of the main architects of the handicap system, which has run successfully from 1983 to date. In 1985, he published 'Tennis: A Cut Above The Rest', the most comprehensive coaching manual on the game, and the first to be published in the twentieth century. His ex-wife, Lesley, founded the Ladies Real Tennis Association and was the first British Female Professional. Six of the Ronaldson family have been real tennis professionals. Having run real tennis clubs in England, Scotland, France and Australia, he is currently Head Professional at Radley College's real tennis court, the only one to have been built this century (2008). Ronaldson Publications is the leading publisher of specialised real tennis titles and is now run by his sister Kathryn McNicoll.

Drone Crash An Accident
POSTED: Thursday, January 6, 2011 - 1:58pm
UPDATED: Thursday, January 6, 2011 - 4:25pm
EL PASO - There are new details today on a Mexican unmanned drone that crashed last month near a home on Craddock Avenue in El Paso.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection leaders say the crash was an accident, but they say the drone shouldn't have been in U.S. airspace.
We're told the issue has been resolved with Mexico without any greater international conflict.
Comments News Comments
Perhaps the US CBP does not have the cojones to tell it like it is. Or is too afraid of Pres Calderon to make a formal objection to this violation, accident or malfunction of the craft or not. The mexican president is accusing the US of the ongoing violence in Mexico, lets not get him too upset and he might accuse us of much moree. SAD< SAD< SAD the U.S. is A__ __ kissing instead of kicking A__ __. But it is only politically correct. By the way, where is our Rep Reyes-Polosi on this one?
So this drone crosses U.S. air space and all we do is say "don't do it again." If it was any other country doing that it would be considered an act of war.
If roles were reversed mexico would make us pay a large dollar amount to get it back.
Remember their president has the juavos enough to tell us we don't know how to run a country all the while thousands of his own country men die in jaurez.
Wake up capitol hill Mexico is not a friend to the U.S.

Lloyd - Me & My Baby
Artist: Lloyd
Featuring: CyHi The Prynce
Producer: Tha Bizness
Album: The Playboy Diaries
Avg Rating: 2.7 ( 11 votes )
Between getting it in and writing songs about getting it in, I'm surprised Lloyd even has time to eat and sleep. Central as lovemaking may be to his personal and professional life, however, the Young Goldie singer/songwriter places equal value on the moments of intimacy that occur outside the bedroom. On Me & My Baby, the latest single off his newly-released street album, Lloyd celebrates the simple pleasure of rolling through the city streets, mildly stoned, with his girl riding shotgun. Joining the headliner over Tha Bizness' mellow, head-noddable boardwork, CyHi The Prince tantalizes his own main squeeze with promises of fine weed and luxury purchases on the back. Like what you're hearing? You can find Me & My Baby, the previously-featured Sexcapade and much more on DJ Scream-hosted mixtape The Playboy Diaries, out now.

Inch by inch, row by row - FREEDOM GROWS.
Here's a snapshot from our garden this 4th morning.
Happy Summer & Holiday Y'all!
6 Comments: "GROWING FREEDOM" »
Glad to see you back. I am really hoping you will do more webinars this summer and fall. I love learning from your family and I really enjoyed reading your blog over the last few years. Thank you.
Anais, your garden looks very lush and productive. Mine has struggled this year here in Nebraska. First we had a very late frost which killed the tomatoes and green peppers, then we had seven inches which resulted in flash flooding along with baseball sized hail. Then the neighbor's yard service sprayed weeds on a windy day and the replanted garden got a whiff of the spray and have been sickly ever since. The only thing that made it through the challenges and still is growing with vigor has been the potatoes. Farmer's market will have to suffice for this summer's produce.
Have a great summer harvesting day.
Your family is so inspiring to me. I am in Regina, Saskatchewan Canada. We started gardening this summer and it is so awesome. Next summer our back yard will be all garden..no more lawn. We are going to put in a wood stove to heat our house this winter. Years ago I used to love preserving food, but somewhere along the way I gave everything up to join the rat race. Thank you for helping me turn back to my roots.
I am so glad that you are back sharing with us. Your garden is beautiful.
I'd be interested to know more about raised bed maintenance and path care. I've been trying the 'Ruth Stout method' with what I call the 'ugly garden' using mulching and no defined raised bed areas. Grass control is difficult, and not having access to enough mulching materials. I'd like to try the raised bed idea now; before it seemed limiting to me and the starter materials too expensive. Thank you for sharing with us.
I am inspired by your simple and most productive life style. I am a retired military and after wars I found myself without a purpose and direction. I am diagnosed with many war syndromes and unable to hold a full time job. Your video has really brought tears to my eyes and I wish I can do a portion of what you do, I started my garden late this year here in Monterey, CA and have had some luck on tomatoes and transplanted lettuces. I mostly garden for therapy and just smile when I see fresh tomatoes on its vine.
In short I am amazed of your hard work and beautiful family.
Please continue to inspire others as you did me.

FORT WAYNE – Amanda Blumenherst's memories of this city run deep.
The former Fort Wayne resident, now an LPGA Tour golfer, remembers winning the 8-and-under crown at McMillen Park Golf Course and being extremely excited to have that trophy.
Though she didn't spend all of her childhood in the area, Fort Wayne feels like home. And her homecoming at McMillen Park on Friday for a free golf clinic was a special occasion for Blumenherst.
I absolutely love coming back every year, she said. I've started to see the same faces over and over again.
This time around, she wasn't the kid with professional golf dreams. She was the one giving tips, letting kids see her clubs and fielding pleas from some to hold her bag.
It's so great seeing little 8-year-olds, or seeing 15-year-olds, or 5-year-olds running around and seeing that they have an interest in the game, she said. Just seeing how excited they get to be around golf is thrilling.
Her return to Fort Wayne felt much the same. But the professional circuit this year has been less magnificent.
Blumenherst has missed the cut in seven of her 11 tournament appearances this season. This year, she hasn't added to her six professional top-10 finishes.
It has been disappointing, Blumenherst said, but she can see progress in her game.
I had higher expectations for myself, she said. There's definitely a light at the end of the tunnel. I see it coming, getting pieced together. So hopefully I can put a good end of the season together.
Blumenherst finished tied for 13th – her best finish this season – at the ShopRite LPGA Classic on May 31 through June 2 in Galloway, N.J.
In her most recent tournament, the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship on June 21 through 23 in Rogers, Ark., Blumenherst finished tied for 70th and took home money for the fourth time this season.
Hitting the fairways has been Blumenherst's biggest problem, she said, but she has worked to improve her driving and seen the benefits lately.
I just have not been hitting it very straight off the tee, and it's hard to make birdies from behind a tree, she said. Just being more confident with my swing, being more confident off the first tee has been something I've had to work on this year.
Next year, she hopes, she will return to Fort Wayne with more to celebrate than a trip home.
The 26-year-old Duke graduate, three years into her pro career, is searching for her first LPGA title.
It's been a little bit more of an adjustment than I thought, she said. It's been a little bit more difficult. My game's coming together right now. I've had some good rounds this year.

The Ngolok rebellions (1917-1949) were a series of military campaigns against unconquered Ngolok tribal Tibetan areas of Qinghai, undertaken by two Hui commanders, Gen. Ma Qi and Gen. Ma Bufang, on behalf of the Beiyang and Kuomintang governments of the Republic of China. The campaigns lasted between 1917 and 1949.
The War[edit]
Gen. Ma Qi was a Hui Chinese commander who joined the Kuomintang after the Northern Expedition in 1927–1928. His forces were composed entirely of Hui Chinese, organized in the Ninghai Army, which was then turned into a National Revolutionary Army division.
Battles for Labrang[edit]
Ma Qi occupied Labrang Monastery in 1917, the first time non-Tibetans had seized it.[1] Ma Qi defeated the Tibetan forces with his Hui Chinese troops.[2] His forces were praised by foreigners who traveled through Qinghai for their fighting abilities.[3] The Labrang monastery had strong connections to the unpacified Ngolok Tibetan tribals who refused to submit to Chinese rule unlike the other Tibetans of Qinghai.
After ethnic rioting between Hui and Tibetans erupted in 1918, Ma Qi defeated the Tibetans. He heavily taxed the town for eight years. In 1925 a rebellion broke out, and thousands of Tibetans drove out the Hui. Ma Qi responded with 3,000 Hui Chinese troops, who retook Labrang and machine-gunned thousands of Tibetan monks as they tried to flee.[4] Ma Qi besieged Labrang numerous times but the Tibetans and Mongols fiercely resisted his Hui forces until Ma Qi gave it up in 1927.[5] However, that was not the last Labrang saw of Gen. Ma. He launched a genocidal war against the Tibetan Ngoloks in 1928, defeating them and seizing the Labrang Buddhist monastery.[citation needed] The Hui forces looted and ravaged the monastery again.[5]
Austrian-American explorer Joseph Rock witnessed the carnage and aftermath of one of the battles around 1929. The Ma Muslim army left Tibetan skeletons scattered over a wide area, and the Labrang monastery was decorated with decapitated Tibetan heads.[6] After the 1929 Battle of Xiahe near Labrang, decapitated Tibetan heads were used as ornaments by Chinese Muslim troops in their camp, 154 in total. Rock described how the heads of "young girls and children" were staked around the encampment. Ten to 15 heads were fastened to the saddle of every Muslim cavalryman.[7] The heads were "strung about the walls of the Moslem garrison like a garland of flowers."[8]
Ma Bufang's campaigns[edit]
Ma Bufang, the son of Ma Qi, was a Kuomintang warlord who dominated Qinghai. He served as a general in the National Revolutionary Army and sought to expand the Republic of China's control over all of Qinghai, as well as bringing Tibet back into the Republic by force. When Ma Bufang launched seven expeditions into Golog, killing thousands of Ngolok Tibetans, the Republic of China government, known as the Kuomintang, supported him.[9][10]
Ma and his army exterminated many Ngolok Tibetans in northeastern and eastern Qinghai, and also destroyed Tibetan Buddhist temples.[11] During one such attack in 1941 Ma Bufang sent Chinese Hui troops to destroy Sekar Gompa monastery, killing their highest ranking Lama and 300 tapas. They sacked the compound, burning it to the ground, and sold all of the property for gold and silver.[12]
From 1918-1942 the Ma warlords waged intensive, violent war against the Ngolok tribal inhabitants of Golog. Ma Bufang also manufactured conflicts by giving pasture to Tibetan and Mongolian groups at the same time, which spread disunity.[13]
The Kunlun middle school was established by Ma Bufang, and it recruited Tibetan students, who were subjected to a harsh military life. Ma wanted to use them as translators as he expanded his military domain over land inhabited by Tibetans.[14]
During the pacification, a war broke out between Qinghai and Tibet. Tibet attempted to capture parts of southern Qinghai province, following contention in Yushu, Qinghai, over a monastery in 1932. Ma Bufang's army vanquished the Tibetan forces and recaptured several counties in Xikang Province.
Under orders from the Kuomintang government of Chiang Kaishek, Ma Bufang repaired the Yushu airport in southern Qinghai Province, close to the border with Tibet, to prevent Tibetan separatists from seeking independence.[citation needed] Chiang also ordered Ma Bufang to put his Hui soldiers on alert for an invasion of Tibet in 1942.[15][16] Ma Bufang complied, and moved several thousand troops to the border with Tibet (1912–1951).[17] Chiang also threatened the Tibetans with aerial bombardment if they did not comply.
A former Tibetan Khampa soldier named Aten who fought Ma Bufang's forces gave an account of a battle. He described the Chinese Muslims as "fierce". After he and his troops were ambushed by 2,000 of Ma Bufang's Chinese Muslim cavalry, he was left with bullet wounds and "had no illusions as to the fate of most of our group", the majority of whom were wiped out.[18][19] Aten also asserted that "the Tibetan province of Amdo" was "occupied" by Ma Bufang.[20]

you know what to do

The way things are going
I do not see elections in 2016. I think it's just about over. prepare to defend your liberties.
All the more reason to have elections. They'll keep them going.
Just like they'll make sure to keep Big Brother, Dancing with the Stars, American Idol, the NFL, the NBA, and the AL/NL games on TV.
They need to keep up the illusion and the pretense.
Elections also make them look like a legitimate government.
Write in is winning with 29, though i wrote in Ron and not Rand. I didn't look who was in second or third because the whole list sucked. All horrible politicians. If that is republican, then I'm not.
Yes, I do know what to do...
Ignore it.
Screw those polls.
Screw 2016.
Ron poll'd well beyond everybody else.
Establishment lie after lie. Support the person, not the party. We need local/state to win. We need to change the hearts and minds of Americans to win. I am sick of this see-saw that duopoly perpetuates.
"What if the American people learn the truth" - Ron Paul

I am 13 weeks today ive had an ultrasound and heard the heart beat but i just dont feel prego i feel regular my tummy isnt hard or round its bikini fla. Whats wrong with me?
Am I pregnant ?
You are one of the lucky ones... Just you wait... Time will change this.
Consider yourself lucky. I wish my belly would have been bikini flat BEFORE I got pregnant. Don't worry... I know you feel like nothing is different now. But in a few short weeks... you will start to feel it. Then you will get the flutters, then the kicks, then the swelling then the waddling. Don't worry it's all coming. Just be glad you are feeling well!

I wish i would just be able to feel the baby.
Give it a couple weeks, and you will feel baby, and the belly will come soon after.
