Concentration (dhyana)
|The meditation practice of focusing the mind uninterruptedly upon an object
24 comments
Emptiness: All or NothingThe idea of sunyata (Pali sunnata) or emptiness has been variously understood—and misunderstood—for centuries. Joan Konner's recent book, "You Don't Have to Be Buddhist to Know Nothing," gathers together the thoughts of philosophers, poets, and pundits, Buddhist and non-Buddhist, on nothing, emptiness, sunyata. Some examples: "The nothing is the force whereby the something can be manifested." - Alan Watts "Poetry makes nothing happen." - W.H. Auden "Nothing is exciting, nothing is sexy, nothing is not embarrassing." - Andy Warhol More »
Absorbed in the BreathThe first jhana has five factors: (a) Directed thought: Think of the breath until you can recognize it clearly without getting distracted. (b) Singleness of object: Keep the mind with the breath. Don't let it stray after other objects. Watch over your thoughts so that they deal only with the breath until the breath becomes comfortable. (The mind becomes one, at rest with the breath.) (c) Evaluation: Let this comfortable breath sensation spread and coordinate with the other breath sensations in the body. Let these breath sensations spread until they all flow together. Once the body has been soothed by the breath, feelings of pain will grow calm. The body will be filled with good breath energy. These three qualities must be brought to bear on the same stream of breathing for the first jhana to arise. This stream of breathing can then take you all the way to the fourth jhana. Directed thought, singleness of object, and evaluation act as the causes. More »
Seeing for YourselfWhen I first went to study with my teacher, Ajaan Fuang, he handed me a small booklet of meditation instructions and sent me up the hill behind the monastery to meditate. The booklet—written by his teacher, Ajaan Lee—began with a breath meditation technique and concluded with a section showing how the technique was used to induce the first four levels of jhana. More »

A Mind Pure, Concentrated, and BrightLeigh Brasington, 55, has been a Buddhist practitioner since 1985 and is the senior American student of the German-born Theravada teacher Ayya Khema. Raised in Mississippi the son of a Presbyterian minister, Brasington lost faith in the family religion at the age of 18, while reading James Michener's The Source, an epic novel that traces the history of Judaism. "Basically, God died that summer." A decade later, he "awakened to the spiritual dimension of life" while traveling through Asia on a round-the-world tour. Actual practice, however, didn't begin until several years later, when he attended a meditation retreat led by Ayya Khema, who eventually helped Brasington map his way through the jhanas and urged him to teach. [Khema died in 1997—see Tricycle, Spring 1998.] Today he spends several months of the year traveling the United States, Western Europe, and beyond, leading meditation retreats—most of which include jhana practice.

The Path of Serenity and InsightThere's no jhanafor one with no discernment, no discernment for one with no jhana. But one with both jhana and discernment: they're on the verge of Unbinding. -The Buddha, Dhammapada 372, translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu More »
The Jhanas: Perfect States of ConcentrationAt the heart of the Buddha's teaching there are doctrines and strategies that dharma students must learn, and internalize, in order to understand his map to liberation. But few strategies are as central to the Buddhist path, and as little known to Westerners, as those called the jhanas. Jhana is the Pali word for mental or meditative absorption, and refers to a set of states of deep and subtle concentration focused on a single object. In the Pali suttas, the Buddha described four jhanas, each a more profound and refined state of consciousness than the preceding one, and each building on the preceding one. The fourth jhana, in turn, can be refined even further into four more states of ever deepening concentration. These latter jhanas are called the nonmaterial jhanas because perception of the material world fades and disappears. More »

Slideshow: Eight Egg-cellent Pies
Jim Lahey's Bird's Nest Pie
Aside from being one of the loveliest pizzas on the menu at Jim Lahey's pizzeria, Co., it's also the most spring appropriate. Beginning with Lahey's signature No-Knead Pizza Dough, this pie gets topped off with finely grated Parmesan, nutty Saint-Nectaire cheese, and a tangle of thinly shaved asparagus stalks.
Co.: 230 Ninth Avenue, New York NY 10001 (at 24th; map); 212-243-1105; co-pane.com
Huevos Rancheros Flatbread
This "fold and eat" flatbread is topped with scrambled eggs, just-cooked-enough refried beans, predictably perfect California avocado, and cooling sour cream, with a chipotle-laced chili sauce that manages to perk up the pizza but not overwhelm anything else.
The Kitchen Door: 644 First Street, Napa CA 94559 (map); kitchendoornapa.com
Breakfast Pizza of Champions
A base of super thin mandolin-sliced Yukon golds adhere perfectly to the pizza. The starch helps keep all the ingredients bound to the crust, ensuring that nothing slides off, except for the occasional chunk of glistening, smoky, slab bacon (ahem, Nueskes). Ricotta fills the creases between the potato and pork. And a perfectly cooked egg hits that balance between slightly runny and gelled.
Mondo: 900 Harrison Avenue, New Orleans, LA 70124; 504-224-2633; mondoneworleans.com
South Philly Scramble
Almost a cross between quiche and grilled cheese, the South Philly breakfast pizza is really just scrambled eggs and oozing American cheese on a sauceless pan pizza crust. It's rather beautiful in its simplicity.
South Philly J&J: 1177 South 9th Street Philadelphia, PA 19147 (map); 215-551-1233; j-jpizza.com
Wake Up Call
Mioposto's spicy bacon and egg pizza tweaks the recipe just a bit by swapping out the tomato sauce with a puree of Tutto Calabria chilies, and damn, those chilies are spicy. What a wake up call. The runny yolks of two over-easy eggs cracked over the center of the pie cut the heat just a smidge and paired well with the salty, crispy pancetta. A thin layer of mozzarella, Parmesan, and seasoned breadcrumbs finish the pie and meld everything together with a mild nuttiness.
Mioposto: 3601 S McClellan St., Seattle, WA 98144 (map); 206-760-3400; seattle-eats.com/mioposto
Eggs in Purgatory Pizza
As a nonpizza dish, Eggs in Purgatory (similar to a shakshuka) is a mighty delicious thing, the eggs baked in a spicy tomato sauce. It's easy to see how that might translate to a pizza. Two eggs join a spicy red sauce, caramelized onions, Parmesan, and basil atop a thin crust. Runny eggs and tomatoes are a great combination, and on a pretty tasty crust, even more so.
Ortine: 622 Washington Avenue, Brooklyn NY 11238 (at Pacific Street; map);718-622-0026; ortine.com

've been single for just over 3 years following a very long marriage. I am embarking upon a new journey in my life as I become an empty nester this fall when my twin daughters go off to college a little bit scary, but at the same time, exciting for us all. Although currently living in Simi Valley, my house is on the market, so I'll be moving. I am not necessarily planning on staying here in Simi as I work in Granada Hills, but have not made a decision as to where I'll buy my next house. Any suggestions?
I'm a special education middle school teacher challenging at times, but also very rewarding. One of the best aspects of teaching is all the time off! I'm looking forward to traveling during my off time, there are a lot of places I've yet to see and experience. I love cooking, but baking is a passion fun to create something not only nice to look at but yummy to eat, and I love the way baking makes my house smell:).
I would love to meet and spend time getting know you if you are an upstanding guy who is on this website to meet a quality person with whom to ease into a monogamous relationship. I use the word, ease, because getting to know somebody, especially a potential relationship partner, takes time I believe in the old saying, that good things come to those who wait, and, you can't really know a person until you spend time together. I really don't have a blueprint this time around as to the type of man I'd be attracted to, but in the past, have been attracted to intelligence and humor. If you can make me laugh, especially without trying very hard, it would be a great start!
I'm not at all interested in a long-distance relationship, so if you're not local, please don't email me.

I'll be showing four large-ish concrete sculptures, all phallic, at SNAP at the Aldeburgh Festival next week. A glorification of the male creative principle, and the importance of having a muse. Artists including myself have been invited to respond to Benjamin Britten's life and work. This year is the composer's centenary. When Britten and Peter Pears started the festival in Suffolk in 1948, they intended it to be a celebration of music and the visual arts. Since then, the music side has continued to grow in stature into a truly international and excellent event, with the visual arts side of things getting a bit side-lined – or at any rate, not making much noise. In part, this could be due to the lack of available exhibition space at Snape Maltings.

Sonia Sotomayor was confirmed more than one month ago, so why, you may ask, am I just now penning a blog about her historic appointment to the U.S. Supreme Court? The answer is easy -- I was scared. I was scared of offending members of the SMA community because of Justice Sotomayor's position on various hot-button issues.
It was hard to miss me on the lava-rocked streets of Goma, Democratic Republic of Congo, while I was working for a locally led organization, HEAL Africa. I lacked the grace of Congolese women who glided across the tumultuous terrain in high heels while I tripped over the ubiquitous black rocks.

This paper describes a decision support system that indicates to a power plant operator the effect of daily operation on plant lifetime consumption and maintenance costs, and recommends a short-term operating strategy that optimizes plant economic performance efficiency. The recommended operating strategy is based on the optimization of an objective function that includes terms for revenues from energy sales, penalties, production costs and plant aging. Plant aging is based on models that are directly load dependent and incorporate a memory aspect, a feature that is missing from common lifetime modeling techniques. The optimization results in a tradeoff between maximization of immediate profits (i.e., earnings achieved by selling heat and power) and minimization of lifetime consumption. A model predictive control (MPC) and mixed logical dynamic (MLD) approach are used to solve the posed optimization problem and optimize this tradeoff and support the plant operator

Great apartaments.
Convenient parking.
Wery close to the beach and beach bars, restaurants.
Nothing to regret.
Ok apartment, well situated. However our teenage grandchildren had no wifi as promised. Faulty shutters on living room which we didnt make a fuss about THEN the owner witheld half of our deposit to get it fixed. What a con !
Communal wifi was down which is beyond my control, however the apartment is given a full check by the caretaker after every rental. A damage deposit is taken for a reason if you break something unfortunately you have to pay for it. This is only the 2nd time in 8 years I have had to charge someone.
The flat is in a pretty and quiet residential area close to some nice restaurants and a sand beach. Even in a high season period, the flat location is not noisy and you feel a very relaxing atmosphere. The owner was really helpful providing all required info on time.

The Innovative Subscription Biz That's Exactly What You Think It Is. Period.by Beth Graddon-Hodgson
Every healthy woman on the planet, that is of child-bearing age, gets a special visit from mother nature (or at least her evil twin sister) once a month. While every woman has a different method for coping with a guest that's welcome on principle alone, there are a few things that every woman requires or appreciates. One unique business wants to ensure that women embrace their monthly guest, and they do that by ensuring that she shows up with a hostess gift.
Happy Pills Candy Store: 'Cuz A Little Bit Of Sugar Helps The Medicine Go Downby Beth Graddon-Hodgson
You've heard the anti-sugar advocates refer to it as a drug , and there's no doubt that candy can fall under the addictive category if you are a sugar-lover. That's why one European business decided to take that notion and run - they've created a themed business that's sickly sweet.
Cash For Cuddling: The Business Of Professional Spooningby Beth Graddon-Hodgson
Cuddling is typically considered an intimate act, reserved for couples, parents and children, and perhaps close friends. But cuddling has many benefits to our well-being, physically and emotionally, and individuals that don't have a designated cuddle buddy miss out on them. That's why some very people-friendly entrepreneurs have carved out a new industry.
Oppo Dog Muzzles: The Business That's Gone To The Ducksby Beth Graddon-Hodgson
Some business find their niche in a world of innovative products, other businesses find their niche making light of what would otherwise be serious business. Whether you like the direction that this unique business has gone is up to you, but they sure have managed to attract attention.
A Unique Approach To Texting Mittensby Fashion Finds
Texting in the winter is inconvenient no matter which way you look at it, and that's pretty inconvenient whether you're doing it for business or pleasure. Particularly during the cold weather months when there's an increased number of delays getting to your destination due to snow and ice, and during the holiday season when you really just want to send your well-wishes to loved ones. Many have tried to tackle the issue of texting during the winter, but this new wearable option is unique.
Top 5 Christmas Businesses That Made 2013 Specialby Beth Graddon-Hodgson
With the Christmas season behind us, and the new year here, it's time to look at the coolest businesses that helped make the holidays magical this year. Take note because these businesses made for a successful 2013 holiday season, and might just help make it a little more merry and bright when it rolls around again in 2014. And what better time to think about Christmas businesses than now - as we cross the threshold into the no longer appropriate to have a tree up, or lights on - territory.
Wenyard, Empire Avenue On Steroids Or Pyramid Scheme?by Ron Callari
Usually one learns of a new innovation, invention, social media breakthroughs from techie news sites like Spot, AllThingsDigital. Mashable, and others. Word traveling fast in real-time is then amplified by all the major social networks (Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn, for starters) and if it's really 'disruptive' it will begin to blanket our zeitgeist. This is then followed by the business trades and legacy publishers elaborating on the shiny new thing's various iterations over time.
'Author Rank' Separating Small Business Bloggers vs Small Business Ghost Writersby Ron Callari
While the blogosphere spawned thousands upon thousands of writers who in many instances lacked the opportunity to write for legacy publishers, ironically the major criticism levied against them came from those traditionalists. Traditionalists who critiqued bloggers as less worthy of acclaim because they were not vetted by the established press. Traditionalists, the likes of noted playwright Aaron Sorkin who agreed with Sarah Palin when their combined condescension labeled them, "pajama people."
Getting The Concepts Straight: Patents, Copyrights, Trademarks And Intellectual Propertyby Diogo Costa
We all know symbols like ©, ® or ™, and usually we have no difficulties relating them to ownership subjects. But do we know their actual meaning, both symbolically and legally? The terms Patents, Trademarks and Intellectual Property are often used in wrong ways, so with this article we will make a general insight over them.
Woof To Wash: Laundry Machines Controlled By Dogsby Beth Graddon-Hodgson
Those of us with pets are aware that they live pretty cushy lives. They spend their days basking in the sun, chasing squirrels while out for walks, and barking when someone comes to the door. The average dog has few responsibilities - all we expect of them is to be semi-obedient and do their business outside. One company believes that dogs should play bigger roles when it comes to the maintenance of their households than simply licking fallen crumbs off the floor.
Money & Betrayal Play Key Roles In Silicon Valley Tomesby Ron Callari
It appears when Ben Mezrich penned his tell-all book about the early beginnings of Facebook and included the bon mots "money" and "betrayal" in its title, he had paved a path for another to follow. After all if one social network could be launched on greed and deception, couldn't others? Good ole Machiavellian ethics may be as old as time, but it appears to be the common denominator for both...

Need A Little Kabbage To Finance Your Small Business?by Ron Callari
Even with the economy relaxing somewhat, bank loans are still a little tight and VC money is not always available for small businesses. So SME entrepreneurs today are seeking more creative ways to obtain capital to finance their business. One such new method to secure funds is from the appropriately named platform, Kabbage.
Emoya Hotel & Spa: Pay To Stay In Povertyby Beth Graddon-Hodgson
Many of us in North America are used to living in relative luxury compared to much of the world. For us, "roughing" it is camping where there's no plumbing or sleeping in European hostels with nothing but our back packs. I won't trivialize it, of course, many North Americans do know what it is like to struggle, but most of us won't have to live shanties for the bulk of our lives, with no electricity, heat, or running water.

EUROPE/SPAIN - "We are faced with a family and faith emergency ": On Sunday a demonstration in defense of the Christian family
Madrid (Agenzia Fides) - "The Christian family is misunderstood and mistreated" denounced the President of the Spanish Episcopal Conference, Cardinal Antonio Maria Rouco Varela, speaking to the Catholic TV COPE, on the occasion of the demonstration which will take place next Sunday, December 30, feast of the Holy Family, in Plaza de Colón in Madrid, in defense of the Christian family. According to the letter sent to Fides Agency, the Cardinal said that "in the historical circumstances in which we find ourselves, the family is not understood, and therefore it is not easy to live all its natural beauty."
"When one is not allowed to live the family in this way - he continued - indeed, when there is hostility towards the family, then not only it is misunderstood, but it is mistreated; so the need to affirm its faith and its content of natural and supernatural reality, becomes a primary and fundamental postulate in the evangelizing mission of the Church."
The family is "an essential reality of man" and "the first cell of the Church and of society, so one should always celebrate it." For this reason, the faithful and the families that will be at Plaza Colon on Sunday want to show the world that "we are dealing with a family and faith emergency." Madrid in recent years has become the center of great events for the family: the event last year was attended by thousands of people who renewed the sense of commitment to the Catholic family. The Archdiocese of Madrid has also launched the "Mission-Madrid" to prepare the mission of the new Evangelization starting with the family. (CE) (Agenzia Fides 28/12/2012)

The Alumni Executive Committee and the college's alumni coordinator are planning for class reunions at TMC during the fall months.
A 60-year reunion luncheon for the very first graduating class of TMC—the Class of 1949—was held in early July. It was an exciting time, for it was TMC's very first opportunity to have a 60-year reunion. The event was held at noon on Wednesday, July 1, 2009, in the Nix Student Center on the campus. The Class of 1950 was invited to join in the fun because their years at TMC overlapped a portion of the time spent at the college by the 1949 class.
Plans are also being made for a 50-year reunion of the Class of 1959 on Friday evening, November 6, 2009, and a 45-year reunion of the Class of 1964 on Friday, October 2, 2009. Plans are still in the tentative stage for a gathering of TMC alumni who met their spouses at TMC, as well. A group of alumni from the Class of 1977 are beginning work on a reunion of their class to be held next spring.

Hanging Out and Taking Pics
Sarah and I got to spend this past weekend together working on our new products and projects. It was a joyous celebration of friendship and porch chats where we shared the greatest and scariest of all our hopes and fears as life sweeps us along. It was also a deep think on the future for TEOT. We're excited. We are at a time in our lives when little girls rule and getting things done is likely to take six times longer than it should for a million wonderful reasons. We wouldn't have it any other way. We take the moments of peace along with the mayhem of barking dogs, hungry cats and playful young'uns with needs. And then we bust our tail ends with the satisfying feeling of energy and passion while we style and shoot and play house together as a team. I'm sure Courtney (the Bennett Kitchen homeowner) was thrilled at the whirlwind job we did,…Read More

Top ten London gigs in October
Check out our round-up of the best gigs in London this autumn
London's autumn gig calendar is always packed, and there's no reason why this year would be an exception. Among our October gig highlights you'll find rising stars alongside veterans and legends. Here are our must-see concerts in London this month.
Nadine Shah
A childhood spent on the stormy coast of north-east England seems to have bred a glowering intensity in Nadine Shah, or rather in the dramatic gothic ballads she writes and performs. Shah began her career as a jazz vocalist – hence the superb vibrato and captivating stage presence – but nowadays she's backed by a full band making a clangorous, discordant rock racket that complements her bold melodies very nicely indeed. Hear her here performing from her brilliant new album 'Fast Food', a gallery of remembered loves that runs the full range from scathing to tender. There are good reasons why she keeps getting compared to Nick Cave and PJ Harvey.Read more
If you've lost your libido, forget Viagra and shell out instead on a ticket for this big London date with US R&B superstar Miguel. He just dropped his new album 'Wildheart', so this big London show is a chance to hear him croon fresh material alongside epic babymaking anthems like 'Adorn'. His silky tones and deft songwriting could get a crumbling statue in the mood for sexy-time.Read more
Jamie XX
Hugely in-demand as a producer and remixer, quite apart from his groundbreaking work as one third of The XX, Jamie Smith drops tracks from his debut solo album. 'In Colour' draws on the producer's long-time obsession with British rave culture, and should result in a superb and thoroughly bangin' live show.Read more
Major Lazer
Party-ready producer Diplo and his current Major Lazer cohorts Jillionaire and Walshy Fire bring their electro-dancehall and baile funk to the live arena. Massive drops, skull-shaking percussion, airhorns and sirens and some nifty blaxploitation visuals turn whatever venues Major Lazer hit into a sweaty dance den. Prepare to dagger hard.Read more
Bob Dylan
The venerable Robert Zimmerman and his band hit London once again, as his 'Never-Ending Tour' enters its twenty-seventh year. His well received latest album 'Shadows in the Night' raided the more obscure corners of the Great American Songbook, so a few songs by other people may well crop up on on his Royal Albert Hall set lists. Apart from that, you can guarantee nothing: Dylan's live set is so erratic that there used to be a gambling website based on it. In the past couple of years he has played material dating all the way back to 1965, as well as plenty of material from his winning streak since 1997's 'Time Out of Mind' – but even if you know the songs, you may not recognise how they come out live, even more so now that Dylan rivals Tom Waits when it comes to transcendentally frazzled vocal chords. Frazzled or not, though, he's a genuine icon and he won't be around forever. Don't miss him while he's in London town.Read more
Hot Chip
Finally! It seems like a lifetime since their terrific last album 'In Our Heads' (in fact it's only been about three years), but at last the synthpop supermen from Putney are back in business. Catch them here showcasing their bittersweet dance-pop and soulful disco tunes, which draw on sources as diverse and brilliant as Kraftwerk, Bill Withers, Paul McCartney and Mantronix, and dropping tracks from their hugely anticipated sixth album 'Why Make Sense?'.Read more
Joanne Shaw Taylor
This British blues star – who's both a thrilling guitarist and a powerful vocalist – was named Best British Female Vocalist at the British Blues Awards in 2010. With a four-album catalogue and echoes of Clapton's slow-handedness, she's a rising star of Brit blues.Read more
Katie Crutchfield channels PJ Harvey, Cat Power and the less thrashy side of Hole as Waxahatchee. It's great stuff, and her glorious 'Cerulean Salt' album attracted plenty of (thoroughly deserved) hype – catch her here in London as she sings from the equally good follow-up 'Ivy Tripp'.Read more
Patti Smith
Her Pattiness doesn't have a spotless record, as anyone knows who's heard her version of 'Smells Like Teen Spirit', but seeing the rock 'n' roll poet and her battle-hardened band play her 1975 album 'Horses' at Field Day was truly incredible. We're confident that these two 'Horses' gigs at the Roundhouse (site of a seminal Smith gig in 1976) will be just as powerful and inspirational. If you didn't see her in Victoria Park, don't miss this.Read more

Vietnam's economy grew 4.66% in the second quarter from a year earlier, faster than the 4.0% expansion in the first quarter, government figures showed Friday.
WASHINGTON – The United States economy likely expanded slightly in the fourth quarter, according to data on Friday that suggested a surprise drop in GDP reported by the government last week was overstated.
The U.S. trade deficit narrowed to its lowest point in nearly three years in December on a drop in oil imports and a surge in exports.
Trade data for December paint a reassuring and encouraging picture of the U.S. economy at the end of last year
BEIJING — China's economy grew at its quickest pace this year between July and September in a rebound fuelled largely by investment, although signs are already emerging that the pick up in activity may lose some vigour.
Gross domestic product in the world's second-biggest economy rose 7.8% from a year earlier, official data showed, marking only the second quarter in the last 10 in which growth has accelerated.
There are facts; then there are completely fabricated, made up numbers. And then there is Chinese "data." After having been exposed in the past several years countless times on these pages alone as being absolute manipulated propaganda hogwash, it is amazing that anyone, anywhere still believes anything to come out of the official Beijing mouthpiece, which merely adjusts a few variable cells in the big central planning goalseeking excel spreadsheet and reports the answer.
(WASHINGTON) — Fueled by healthier consumer spending, the U.S. economy grew in the second half of last year at the strongest pace in a decade and more than previously estimated, new government data show.
While Europe's financial crisis continues India grew GDP by 8.6% in the first 3 months of 2010. China continues to grow quickly as do many emerging countries, including Brazil. India's Q4 GDP grows at 8.6% y-o-y

Have a look at this fine vintage 6-stringed archtop jazz guitar model SOLIST made in Erlangen/Germany by Arnold Hoyer around 1955:
Fullsize archtop body with venetian cutaway, fine solid carved spruce top, nicely figured solid maple sides and back, natural blonde finish. Multilayer celluloid bindings around the edges.
Note the old style ARNOLD HOYER logo at the headstock / top and the unique patented Hoyer roller bridge !
The overall length is 42.5" (108cm), Scale 24.8" (63cm),
neck width 42 mm at the nut and 52 mm at the 12th fret.
The body is 16.35" (41.5cm) wide, 20.25" (51.5cm) long and 3.35" (8.5cm) deep.
Slim D-shaped maple neck with adjustable trusrod. Ebony fretboard with 21 frets plus zero fret and celluloid fret markers. Special designed ebony bridge with thumbwheel heigth adjustment and separate metal rollers for each string to compensate the scale length. Heavy nickeled brass tailpiece.
Excellent balanced resonant tone with fine harmonics and good sustain for rhythm accord as well as for solo play, perfect for swing and jazz.
Straight neck with comfortable low action: app.3mm at the 12th fret.
Good condition considering the age of over 60 years. The tuners were replaced recently, some small holes from a pickguard have been closed. The body already showsthe typical fine crackles of an old original finish. Several dings and dongs, typical scratches in the finish and other traces of a long musicians life are definitely present- she sounds excellent and has therefore been played a lot - see pictures for details.
- sold 'AS IS' !

The City Council is the legislative body of the City of Jacksonville's consolidated government and is responsible for making the laws that govern our way of life. These 19 Council Members, who are elected to four-year terms and serve as part-time legislators, have almost unlimited power to enact legislation in order to provide for the needs of our community.
For fair representation throughout the community, the city is divided into 14 districts of nearly equal population and each of these districts elects a single council member. The other five council members represent the entire community 'at large.'
In May of each year the Council elects a President and Vice President to serve one-year terms beginning the first of July. The President then assigns members to Standing and Special Committees.
Legislation flows through Standing Committees made up of council members before going to the full Council for a vote. All bills are assigned to one or more of the six Standing Committees for recommendations to be made to the full Council. These committees meet during the first and third weeks of each month in the Council Chamber in City Hall. For additional information, click Legislative Process.
The full Council meets on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month at 5 p.m. in the Council Chamber. Citizens are encouraged to play an active role in their city government. You may obtain a Council Agenda from the Legislative Services Division in City Hall (Suite 430) on the Friday before a meeting.
You may speak before the full City Council on any bill up for public hearing or during the public comment section at each Council meeting. If you have questions or concerns regarding local issues, call your district council member or the Council office at (904) 630-1377. Staff there will be glad to assist you.
Click on the links below to navigate to individual Council Member pages. If you are not sure who your District Council Member is, please click My Neighborhood Search to search on JaxGIS or contact the main City Council office at (904) 630-1377. Click Precinct Finder to search for your precinct on the Supervisor of Elections website.
Under Florida law, email addresses are public records. If you do not want your email address published, do not send electronic mail to City Council Members or staff. Instead, contact the City Council by phone or in writing.

Promoter wanted to fake a death in Michigan to force amateur regulation

Shit just got real!Tell me more about him, please.

That quote is not coming from any concern for fighter safety, it's simply Ahrens getting himself some promotion. MMA would be better off without guys like him.I think requiring insurance for each fighter & medical staff on-site, should be required for ANY MMA event, regardless of whether the fighters are paid.

Creating a false crisis for what one feels is an ethical cause. Just like Al Gore's global warming theory without the profit factor.
4/17/11 9:50 AM by Jdonw
I find it ironic that Greg Ahrens is a big proponent of regulation in Michigan, but is also well known as the sleaziest promoter in Michigan. His shows just take as many people as will show up with little to no training, and just matches them up by nearest weight regardless of experience. He also put pros on cards before pro fights were legal in the state. He wants licensing only so new promotions won't be able to start up and compete with him. A few of the other shows I know of that struggle to survive against him actually run close to the way it would be regulated.

While usually against heavy government regulation this can only help grow the sport. TTT for reffing classes too
4/17/11 9:40 AM by dan black
We have amateur MMA in California but promoters are still using it to help make a big profit.. in-fact I am pretty sure the non-profit that runs it has to be making a profit considering how much it cost for licensing, I heard a promoters license cost around $5,000.. If my guys want to fight under Muay Thai or Boxing rules its either cheap or free, if you want to compete in amateur MMA it cost $115 for a 1-year CAMO license then whatever it cost for blood and physical.. Considering most of my best athletes don't come from money its kind of a no-brainer unless I can get sponsors for them to pay their fees.. I am not a big fan of amateur MMA personally unless its for people under 18, IMO you should compete in the individual disciplines that make up MMA.. the competition is much better and the regulation is usually better too.. When Fedor competes as an amateur (combat sambo) he wears headgear and shin guards.. in most states they just call you an amateur because your not getting paid, yet the ticket prices are usually pretty much the same as a pro-show..
4/17/11 9:27 AM by Kirik
The distinction between ammy and pro is an artifact left over from boxing. No one is making money off amateur boxing, it is run by USA Boxing, a non profit. Ammy MMA is making big money for some promoters. I would like to see all MMA regulated.

Bahrain began freeing political prisoners.
February 23, 2011 11:37 by Reuters
Bahrain began freeing political prisoners on Wednesday, including 23 allegedly accused of seeking to overthrow the kingdom's Sunni Muslim monarchy, a Shi'ite opposition lawmaker said.
"It is a positive move," Ibrahim Mattar, of the Wefaq party, told Reuters, saying more than 100 prisoners had been released before dawn, but dozens remained in jail. Those released included 21 common criminals, he said.
