Bullying is becoming a serious problem in today's society. Whether it's mental, verbal, physical, or even cyber bullying, it needs to be stopped. Bullying is more common than we realize. Studies show that between 15 – 25% of all kids up through high school age are bullied, while many bullying incidents go unreported. That's almost 1 out every 4 kids are bullied. It is estimated that each day 160,000 kids will miss school for fear of being bullied.
Many adults don't even know that their child is being bullied because many kids are afraid to report it. It's important to talk to your children and get to know how things are going at school, social events, in the neighborhood, or even sporting activities. Specifically ask your child how are they being treated by other kids. That will help open the dialog, and could expose potential problems your child may be having with others. Even if your child is not encountering bullying problems it's good to educate them about the topic, and prepare them with the means to deal with it if it happens to them. There are many good resources online for parents and kids to learn about bullying and more importantly to learn about prevention and intervention strategies.
In many cases if our kids simply stand up to the bullying they can stop it. But many don't stand up for themselves because they don't know what to do, especially when the bullying gets physical. That's where, as a last stand, we need to arm our kids with a physical means to defend themselves if they are attacked. Statistics show that almost half of all bullying incidents end up in physical violence. If at all possible we want to avoid physical means of self-defense by using other intervention strategies, but sometimes we have no choice. If a child is empowered with self-defense skills, that will give them the confidence to deal with a bully who is using physical aggression against them. More importantly the confidence they gain will help them in other aspects of their lives and increase their overall self-esteem. Generally when kids have higher confidence and self-esteem, they tend to be a lesser target for would be bullies. Don't wait until it is too late, start empowering your kids today, before they become victimized by bullying.
It's hard to believe it's been over 20 years since the first UFC. As a student at the Gracie Academy back then I received this flyer in the mail in early October 1993 promoting the first UFC. I was in the middle of a job relocation at the end of October and was unable to attend. Of course looking back I really wish I would have gone, but instead my wife and I watched on TV from our new apartment in Cincinnati, OH with the other 86,000 pay per view subscribers. Can you imagine $50 ring side seats? I had confidence that Royce was going to be successful that night as I had already been training with the Gracies for 3 years and knew first hand the effectiveness of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. By then I had already witnessed several challenge fights at the academy, which a few are showcased in the "Gracie In Action" video series. I don't think it was ever intended to be, but UFC 1 was the launch of a new sport which we now call MMA. It did for sure show the world the effectiveness of jiu-jitsu and caused it to be the fastest growing martial art on the planet. Greg Eldred

While growing up Clinton Johnson was always a fan of MMA and aware of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and its origins. After participating in sports throughout school, he was looking to channel his competitive nature. In 2010 Clinton found Indianapolis Jiu-Jitsu, attended a trial class and joined the academy in August. Quickly falling in love with BJJ, Clinton decided to enter his first competition in November 2010, and won both of his matches by points. From then on he got the competition bug.
In 2011 Clinton kicked into high gear entering 10 tournaments and earning 13 medals. 2012 was a breakthrough year for Clinton starting with 2 Gold medals at a January tournament giving up no points on the day. After much training at the academy and winning the Hoosier Open for the second consecutive year, Clinton earned his Blue Belt from Professor Greg Eldred in July 2012.
Clinton transitioned well into Blue Belt competition winning his weight division and the absolute in September 2012. During 2013 Clinton continued competing and earned 8 medals in five competitions. For 2014, Clinton has set his sights on the most prestigious BJJ tournament in the world, the Mundials, in May. Having world-class instruction by Professor Greg Eldred multiple times per week is helping him prepare to be Indy BJJ's first world champion. Good Luck Clinton!
Dillon and Evan Eldred are off to a great start to their high school wrestling season at Westfield High School. Both boys are undefeated with a 10-0 record. Evan a sophmore, and state qualifier from last season, is currently ranked 4th in the state at 132lbs. Dillon a senior, just reached his 96th high school career win, and is ranked 12th in the state at 138lbs. Keep up the great wrestling.
Our very own Travis Hawkins participated in the 911 Slugfest recently and won by a unanimous decision over his opponent. This event is an amateur boxing competition between central Indiana's bravest police officers and finest firefighters. The police team and the fire team consist of 13 fighters, who strap on the headgear and boxing gloves and step through the ropes to fight for charity. The event raised $50,000 for the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
Great job to all our Team Indy BJJ guys who competed in the 10th Annual Hoosier Open on June 1st. The tournament had a record number of total competitors for it's 10th year.

At some point in your jiu jitsu training it will be time for you to start participating in open mat or sparring sessions, often referred to as "rolling" in jiu-jitsu. Some schools don't advise it until a student has sufficient background, which may vary from just a couple months to several months of practice. In any case it's an integral part of the learning process, and it will put you on the path of increasing your proficiency in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Initially your training may start with technique learning and repetition, but eventually your training should consist of these 3 basic parts: Technique learning with repetition, drilling, and sparring. Some people have the mindset that sparring is just for those who desire jiu-jitsu competition. That is far from the truth. Sparring has many benefits as I will share some with you, whether you're intending to compete or not. Nothing else prepares you for a real fight, or competition as well as live sparring. It's a great way to get and stay in shape as it is a high cardiovascular workout. Keeping your body in shape has all the health benefits, but more importantly if you are attacked on the street you'll have the endurance to properly defend yourself and go the distance to achieve a successful outcome, likewise in competition. Regular sparring also gives you the chance to practice the techniques you have learned. It gives you the opportunity to try your stuff out against a live, resisting opponent, as opposed to your partner typically being more cooperative when just practicing techniques in class. Sparring also helps improve the timing of applying your techniques, and your reaction time to your opponents movements and behavior. Throughout the sparring match your body will be in a number of different positions, and you will learn how to react and deal with all of those situations that may come up in a real fight, or in competition. You will get in bad positions especially if you spar with higher ranking students, and that's when sparring also will help develop your patience and teach you to not use your strength, but rather rely on your technique and skill. Sparring also helps develop your strategic thinking and to anticipate your opponents movements. You will learn to always be one step ahead of your opponent as you will be able to plan out a sequence of moves in advance, or you will be able to defend off some action of theirs in advance.The more often you spar the better off you will be when or if the time comes for you to use your jiu-jitsu, whether it's in competition or if you find yourself in a real fight. A student once told me who was attacked out on the street that because of his frequent sparring and drilling in class the actual fight felt he was training at the academy. He felt comfortable, didn't panic, and his jiu-jitsu reflexes just kicked in. The last thing you want to happen in the fight is for it to feel unfamiliar or awkward. You have techniques in your mind, but you're not comfortable or polished in combining them in sequences, or connecting the dots as we say. This can be a bad feeling and a bad outcome. This article is intended to tell you that you need to incorporate sparring into your training regimen. How to spar and things to consider while sparring to get the most out of your training is a whole other topic. Meanwhile, keep polishing your techniques, and find time to incorporate sparring into your routine.
Good Luck - Greg Eldred
Let's be real, the world we live in is not a safe place. There are bad people out there looking for victims to prey on. Therefore, you need to know how to protect yourself in case someone targets you for reasons of harassment, theft, rape, or to cause bodily harm. Not being prepared can result in serious consequences such as unwanted sexual proposals and action, serious injury or even death. You cannot control the desires and behavior of such bad people, but you can certainly take actions to minimize and prevent yourself from being the one chosen for the attack. And if you are attacked the use of self defense techniques and strategies can save your life.
Whether the attack is physical or sexual, the experience can leave both emotional and physical scars that can last a lifetime. You will never be the same. You will always replay the attack over in your mind wondering what you could have done differently to avoid or escape from the situation. You will question yourself as to why you never took a women's self defense class.
There are three steps you must do to better protect yourself from would be attackers. 1.) You must have a greater awareness. You need to pay better attention to your surroundings, as this is your first line of defense. Attackers are looking for easy victims who are not aware, as they are easy targets, because they have the element of surprise at their advantage. 2.) You must take measures to reduce your risks. This can be from how you look, to how you act, and even how you talk. Also don't go into isolated areas alone, and if you are going out, go with people and stay around people. Make sure your body language shows a sense of confidence. If you don't feel comfortable going to certain places, then don't go there. 3.) Take a self defense class. The best way, in fact, the only way to prepare yourself to fight off an attacker is to take a self defense class. Self defense classes can teach you special techniques for breaking from an attacker's grasp and other things you can do to get away. Many women might take action by implementing the first two steps mentioned above, and skip the self defense training. But what do you do when those barriers are broken down, you let your guard down for that one moment, and suddenly you are in a frightening situation? Crime can happen to anyone at anytime, even if you are prepared. Taking a women's self defense class will empower you to stand up for yourself and take control of your own life.
The 9th Annual Hoosier Open is in the books. It was one of our largest turnouts yet. We received many compliments on our new look with the fencing and new mats. We had competitors from 11 states participating. The results are posted on our tournament website: www.usabjjtournaments.com.
IndyBJJ had 6 Gold medalist, 4 Silver, and 1 Bronze. Great Job Team.
Congratulations to Chris Keidel for receiving his Black Belt from Master Caique on Sept, 30, 2011. Chris started training jiu-jitsu in 1997 with Greg Eldred. He is a great student, instructor, and friend, and his loyality and dedication to Prof Greg Eldred and Master Caique is unmatched. Chris was promoted in a ceremony following a 2 hour seminar by Master Caique. We also gained a new Brown Belt that evening - Kim Freeman who has a great devotion to the art of jiu-jitsu. We are proud of everyone for these remarkable achievements. Click here for PHOTOS of the occasion.
Sept 17, 2011 Indy BJJ participated in the city of Carmel's Public Safety Day hosted by the Fire and Police Departments. This was a free event that included educational booths by local businesses and organizations designed to teach children and families basic safety techniques on a wide range of topics. Also, health and wellness booths were on display. Activities at each booth gave children and adults a chance to test their knowledge or ask questions about a given safety, health, or wellness concern. Indy BJJ Professer Greg Eldred and his student John Hillman gave self-defense demonstrations, as well as taught visitors to the booth a basic wrist grab escape technique. We were very busy the whole day, and we're glad to be part of this event. We hope that people left our booth knowing more than they did when they arrived.Click here to see some PHOTOS of the event.
I've wanted to tackle this question for a while now. Over the years I've read various opinions about it and finally I'm ready to offer my own. I want to start out by saying, if you want to be a wrestler then first and foremost you better practice wrestling. If you are wrestling then I'm sure you're doing that with your school or club team, at least during the season. If you happen to live in an area where wrestling is offered in the off-season, it would be a good idea to participate in that as well. Okay, so what if you don't have off-season wrestling in your area, or what if you're burned out on wrestling after a long season. That's where jiu-jitsu might come in. Keep in mind jiu-jitsu and wrestling are two different sports, with their own objectives. Also consider, other than for sport, jiu-jitsu is a self-defense system. What jiu-jitsu can do for the wrestler is fill the gap during the off-season. It keeps you on the mat. Sure, you're going to learn techniques that aren't allowed in wrestling such as submissions, and how to work in the guard position, which being on your back in wrestling is a bad thing, but over time you will also learn techniques that you can take back to the wrestling mat. Furthermore, jiu-jitsu is not a bad thing to know, as you will learn skills that can be used for the rest of your life if you are ever attacked out in the street.I'm gonna go out on a limb by saying practicing jiu-jitsu will make you a better wrestler. I can say that with experience. I have been practicing jiu-jitsu for over 20 years, and have been assisting in coaching wrestling for 11 years. Let me make things clear though…. I was never a wrestler myself. All wrestling I've learned has been from the great coaches and programs my kids have been involved with. I have three boys, a freshman in high school, one in 7th and another in 3rd grade. They all have wrestled and practiced jiu-jitsu since kindergarten. This year my older son, as a high school freshman, was a semi-state qualifier. As an 8th grader for his middle school team he was undefeated and won the City Championship. This year my 7th grader, won the City Championship, and finished his middle school season undefeated. He also competes in ISWA (Indiana State Wrestling Association) events and had an overall season record of 30-7. As a 5th and 6th grader he finished runner up in the City tournament. And finally my 3rd grader, a small one too at 50 lbs, this year won his City Championship. Throughout the years we've collected more "boards" from tournament wins than what we know what to do with. I really don't think you need to do jiu-jitsu since childbirth to be able to translate the applicable skills over to the wrestling mat. In fact, if you are already a wrestler, I think it will be much easier for you to differentiate what jiu-jitsu techniques can apply to your wrestling game. Exactly what techniques am I talking about? We'll get to that in a minute. I already mentioned what skills won't help your wrestling such as submissions, and working in the guard position, and of course, there's more that won't help as well. There are specific techniques that can directly apply, but also what helps is not just a specific move or technique, but it's the use of leverage, balance, control, positioning, gripping, base, and posture that are all learned and refined as a jiu-jitsu practitioner. Yeh, I know those same skills are learned in wrestling too. But I believe jiu-jitsu offers an extension or different perspective in developing those skills, because it's a fighting system incorporating a wider range of positions and techniques not practiced in wrestling. In the past I've had opportunities to show my sons wrestling teams specific jiu-jitsu techniques that can be used on the wrestling mat. I'd rather have someone come to class and figure it out for themselves. But, just to mention a few, there are some nice headlock escapes that saved several of our kids from getting pinned. Also, the rear mount is a great dominating position, and a great place to be in fight, and we get pretty good at it. It will definitely help your leg riding or back riding in wrestling. My older son actually pinned a senior, a #1 seed in our conference tournament, using a mounting technique when you have their back and are about to lose the position. He lost to him badly earlier in the season, but that victory help his seeding in the post season sectional tournament. We also use our feet as hooks for sweeps or reversals and our legs a lot in jiu-jitsu, and my kids find ways to implement that into their wrestling game.I can't even begin to cover all the jiu-jitsu techniques that will help you in wrestling. That is mostly dependent upon you. The longer you practice jiu-jitsu you'll start to figure it out on your own. Also don't forget practicing jiu-jitsu in the off-season is a great opportunity to keep you on the mat, and keep your grappling skills fresh. The techniques you learn that can't be used in wrestling are not a waste of your time either. You'll be learning the most effective fighting techniques in the world, which you can take with you long after your wrestling career is over. Prof Greg Eldred

I started taking lessons at the Gracie Academy in Torrance, CA almost 20 years ago in January 1991. This was 3 years before the first UFC, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu was mostly unknown at that time here in the United States. The UFC platform helped propel the Gracie family name and their style of martial art into mainstream America and the rest of the world. A friend of mine, and long time martial artist of several disciplines, first told me about the Gracie's, as he had already been taking lessons from them for a couple of months. He couldn't believe the effectiveness yet simplicity of the things these skinny mild mannered Brazilians were teaching him. He said that what he had learned in those few months of practicing jiu-jitsu would be much more beneficial to him in a real street fight than the many years of his other martial arts experienced combined. He encouraged me to come to class with him to check things out, and said the Gracie brothers were very nice and welcoming to everyone. So, I did just that, I went to the Gracie Academy with my friend one evening and I immediately knew it was something I wanted to be involved in. I was the Gracie Academies 197th student.Back then students started out with privates lessons. The academy had 2 small rooms, and a larger room for bigger classes. For the first 6 months or so all of my lessons were one on one with either Royler or Royce in one of the small private rooms. They focused on teaching new students street self defense, including, the club, knife, and gun techniques, as well as fundamental ground techniques. Eventually students were put into small semi-private classes of 2 – 3 other students. I don't remember classes being any bigger than that, at least not until after the first UFC and their popularity skyrocketed. After my first year Royler moved back to Brazil, then most of my classes from then on were with Royce, and occasionally with Rorion or Rickson. Eventually, Rickson started branching out on his own teaching classes at a couple other locations. People always ask me if Rickson was incredible, and the answer is always yes. There was also a Brown Belt named Craig Kukuk, who started teaching some classes at that time, who soon after became the first American to receive a Black Belt in Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. And I'll never forget a Black Belt named Fabio Santos who they brought in to teach at the academy too. Fabio is one of the nicest guys you could meet, and yet looks like one mean dude, who also had some of the greatest fight stories.The Gracie's used to have challenge matches at the academy, where local martial artists of all types would call them up and challenge them to a no-rules match to see whose style is really the best. The Gracie's used to upset some in the martial arts community with their claims that they had the most realistic and effective style of martial art, so many lined up to try and disprove that. I had the privilege of witnessing several of these fights, where Royce or Royler always emerged victorious, and it only deepened my desire to make jiu-jitsu a permanent part of my life. Some of the fights I witnessed are on a video they produced called "Gracie in Action II". If you've ever seen it I'm one of the students standing up against the wall. In one challenge match I witnessed, the challenger cried after being beat because he was so devastated and upset that his technique was not effective against Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. - Part II will be coming soon. Professor Greg Eldred
Master Caique visited us on Feb. 28, 2010 for a 3 hour seminar. We learned lots of great stuff, especially some good techniques from the bottom in the open guard.

We are very excited and happy for Professor Caique who received his Red/Black belt on March 9th from Master Rickson Gracie in Brazil. This promotion is also sanctioned by the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation of Rio de Janeiro. Caique was promoted to 7th degree, in which the traditional black belt is replaced with an alternating red/black belt. The red/black belt is for 7th and 8th degree, then 9th degree would be promoted to red belt. Caique is one of 3 or 4 Red/Black belts in the United States. It is a great honor to be his student and friend.
Everyone had a great time learning from one of the best while Caique was here in Indianapolis on March 1st. We had 30 people attend the seminar, and Caique was excited to see everyone again. We can't wait until next time! CLICK HERE for more seminar photos!
I am very happy and excited to announce that our schedule will be expanding beginning in March. Adult day classes are being added, as well as Kids classes. I've had many many requests and inquires over the years about when I'd be adding day classes for those who can't make evening classes, or when I'd be offering kids classes.I'm glad that now I am able to provide the opportunity for many more people to learn the fabulous martial art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I've dedicated 18 years of my life to jiu-jitsu, which not many in the United States can claim. Jiu-Jitsu has been a huge part of my life and my families, and I'm glad that I can now devote full time to my academy. Please see our new Schedule for all class times. Anyone is welcome to come check us out and take a free class and I'm looking forward to seeing you soon.Greg EldredBlack Belt/Owner - Indianapolis Jiu-Jitsu

Celebrating success
On Tuesday 12 children from St Joseph's in Years 4,5 and 6 played in the TAG Rugby Tournament at Ormiston Sudbury Academy. We were victorious in all our group matches and progressed to the semi-final against Nayland, which we won. We were focussed and played with ambition throughout the final but we unfortunately lost. We can console ourselves that 2nd out of 15 schools is still a good achievement.
We are delighted to announce that on 1st October 2014 St Edmunds were awarded the Bronze Linguamarque and are the first school in Suffolk to be awarded it since the pilot was run. Primary Languages (PL) have become a statutory requirement in schools as of September 2014 and the Suffolk Linguamarque is a new initiative that has been launched to enable schools to audit how languages are embedded in their curriculum. We are now going to work our way through the scheme and begin our journey towards applying for the silver award. Thank you to Mrs Wallace (our PL leader) for her hard work in supporting all of the staff to embed a range of langauages within our curriculum provision.
A huge well done to the St Edmund's gardening club for being awarded 'Gold' in this year's Bury in Bloom Green Fingers Award Scheme. A group of the pupils who attend the gardening club enjoyed attending the award ceremony with Mrs Vince and Mrs Leighton at The Apex in October 2015. Not only did they collect their Gold award, but they also received an 'Outstanding Achievement' award too to acknowledge the amount of work that had been put in to set up the gardening area.
We're proud of the success that their hard work has achieved.

[blackbirdpie url="https://twitter.com/AlexKennedyNBA/status/220960898653761538″]
The recent NBA rumors have made little to no sense lately. The latest one has the Houston Rockets meeting with free agent Aaron Brooks. The Rockets once traded Brooks to the Phoenix Suns for Goran Dragic. If you are scoring at home, the Suns just re-upped with Dragic. This might be the first time a trade has had absolutely zero effect on anything ever.
If this makes sense, please let me know. I am so utterly confused by the Rockets that I have no idea where to start. They currently have a glut of power and small forwards. They have few point guards and even less centers. So to fill the point guard void, they are going after a guy they traded away once before.
I respect the Rockets front office, but the NBA rumors around them the last couple of days have been too tough to manage. I think that they may be drunk. The moves make little to no sense, unless they want to play with five power forwards. Unconventional with a minimal chance of working, but it is the only thing that makes sense.
This is what is great about the offseason, I think. There are so many wacky things going on that you have to sit back and enjoy it. If you try to figure everything out, you are going to go insane. In fact, this move is so far out left field that my head hurts just thinking about it.

Update Notes
Updated on: 04/06/2015
Since we last visited AllSexPass...
If All Sex Pass actually presented you with a pass to all the sex that was available throughout the world it would stand out as the greatest site ever put online. But that's not what it provides you with. More reasonably, it gives you access to all the sex found throughout the seven sites that make up the network.
When you first sign in you'll probably be taken to the homepage for one of the seven sites. But you want to see everything, right? Well, if you click on the "all scenes" link you're only going to get the scenes from the site they first signed you into. Instead you want the "elect a site" dropdown menu. From there you can select AllSexPass and get everything all together. Or you can just select any of the seven sites and check out those scenes. So you get a couple ways to browse the collection, which is never a bad thing.
No matter how you browse the content, though, you'll always find a category list along the left-hand side and you can also rate each scene on a 5-star scale. Besides that there really aren't any other features to mention. What I should mention now, though, are the sites themselves.
One of them is Next Door Mommies and it brings you, as you'd expect, hardcore MILF action. With Ex Ghetto GF you get to enjoy ebony hotties sucking and fucking. Destroyed GF gives you rough hardcore action with lots of throat fucking, anal sex and nasty fun.
There's also Bisexual GF, which could just as easily be called Lesbian GF since all the content is girl-on-girl - and sometimes on more girls. Black Dong Attack is all about hardcore interracial porn. The last two have shemale action and you have the option of hiding the tranny scenes while your browse.
Counting all the content throughout the sites I came up with 585 videos and about 420 photo sets (some of the scenes only offer screen caps). I should mention that the entire network is made up of nonexclusive content. There have been 17 new videos in the last 30 days, but the time between updates varies and sometimes multiple scenes from more than one site are added at once.
While the quality of the content does vary a little, for the most part you'll find high-res photos and although most of the videos are good in quality, some come in HD or Full HD. The movies can all be downloaded in a full-length MP4 file and you can also stream them in an embedded Flash player.
A membership to All Sex Pass is available at a reasonable price, but is it worth it? Well, although theentire collection is nonexclusive, it has grown to a more appealing size thanks to an added trio of sites. Sure, there are plenty of other mega-sites that are bigger and exclusive, but you'll still feel like you're getting your money's worth here.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.
* Watch out for ratings of zero and 100. In our opinion, there is no such thing as a site that is absolutely perfect or completely worthless.

" The Insect Wars"
from gloriana casey
Our Earth, it is a lovely place,
in lively, long Earth life.
With 4.54 billion years,
you'd think we'd get it right.
For Earth Day is just forty-three,
since 1970.
So many changes-- climate made
along with industry.
For climate change brings hurricanes,
and farm land filled with drought.
Plus don't forget the insects there,
to give us all a rout!
Mosquitoes! West Nile Virus------
food poisoning from heat!
And water rationing comes too,
as prices rise so steep.
But what to Altadena comes?
What insects are a bane?
Polyphagous Shot Hole Borer;
it's scary ---just in name!
Oh, evil bugs they kill the ENTS
( those TREES for Hobbit fans)
Their war began 2003;
invasion of our lands!
These tiny terrors bore the holes
within the tree trunk space,
fill it with fungus and their eggs,
and soon---a treeless place!
But worst of all, sick trees infect
down to their own sawdust.
As sickness spreads so quickly now!
Eradicate, we must!
Another evil empire bug---
Gold Spotted Oak Borer!
Imagine hills with no forests;
truly a bug horror!
Today Earth Day we celebrate,
on Wednesday we must act!
With Altadena Heritage,
a plan for bug attack!
Community Center's the place!
Day--April 24
Defend the Earth and your own yard,
and win this Insect War!
7:30 is the time for meet!
on Altadena Drive.
730 is the street number,
let's keep those trees alive!

Conventions of Prayer in Some 19th-Century Operas
Edgecombe, Rodney Stenning, Musical Times
IN THIS ESSAY, I propose to look at the way in which liturgical forms have been accommodated on the lyric stage of the 19th century, and also at the musical and textual conventions that have developed in tandem with them. I shall base my typology of these forms on classical rather than Christian models so as to admit some neo-classical preghiere into my study, and also to address those pagan forms of prayer that persisted on the stage of the primo ottocento. One must bear in mind that there is often only a nominal difference between classical and Christian prayer, given the fact that both are predicated on archetypal human postures, and also given the fact that the primitive church made wholesale adaptations of Roman liturgical practices.
Those practices were categorised in terms roughly similar to their Catholic avatars, even though, to an extent more marked than in their successors, they were differentiated by degrees of intimacy and gravitas. Preces related chiefly to private entreaty, whether with a deity or a powerful person. (We will recognise in this a recurrent situation of the primo ottocento, namely, a heroine in extremis appealing either to a deity or to a tyrannical baritone.) Precationes, on the other hand, associated as they were with ceremonies of the comitia, emerged from the public adaptation of preces, the sort of pious communal prayer that operatic composers invoke to image a society at peace with itself, as at the start of Linda di Chamounix or Cavalleria rusticana. Deprecationes, by contrast, were more tendentious and purposeful - prayers designed to ward off evil and, to that extent, a verbal form of apotropaic sacrifice. (These have an operatic history that stretches as far back at least as Gluck's Iphigénie en Tauride and as far forward as Verdi's Otello.) And if they succeeded, they led, naturally enough, to festivals of thanksgiving or gratulationes, of which we find a private example in La forza deldestino ('Sono giunta! Grazie, o Dio') as well as such grateful tributes to Isis in Act II, scene 2 of Aida. The standard Christian vehicle for public gratulation was the Te Deum, which figures in propria persona (so to speak) at the start of La Juive.
Obsecrationes took form as solemn public prayers offered up by the people, who invoked the gods as witness to the covenant, while obtestationes referred to even more solemn versions of the same enterprise, such as Sinon's treacherous invocation of 'eternal fires' when the Trojans undo his fetters in the Aeneid. The operatic locus classicus for this kind of prayer is doubtless the 'Conjuration of the nobles' in Meyerbeer's Huguenots, while a 'chamber' version of an obstestatio can also be found in Act 2 duet between hero and villain from Verdi's Otello, 'Sì pel ciel'. There is little (if anything) to distinguish Roman intercessory prayers - supplicia - from preces and precationes, but the closely related activities of blessing and cursing - both specialised intercessory prayers - figured as benedictiones and exsecrationes respectively. Benedictio, despite its being a late Latin term, would cover all those invocations of divine protection and advancement that must have existed at the very birth of the Republic, as witness the blessing that Aeneas calls down on himself in Book 8 of Virgil's poem:
O Father Tiber, with thy hallowed flood,
Take to your care Aeneas and at length
From perils fend him.1
That happens to be a private version of an utterance that could just as easily adapt itself to public occasions and to social groups instead of individuals. So, while the Marquis of Calatrava administers a 'chamber' blessing to Leonora at the start of La forza del destino, Tchaikovsky's Joan of Arc encompasses the entire French nation in her hymn 'Tsar vishnikh sil' in Act 1 of Orleanskaya Dyeva.
The same distinction of scale holds true with regard to the exsecratio. Horace's Tenth Epode represents a private kind of cursing, advanced half in jest:
Under evil omen the ship sets sail, bearing unsavoury Mevius. …

It is argued by environmentalist that printed yellow pages are wasteful resource based on the fact that 70% statistic shows that Americans rarely use printed telephone directories. While majority use the Yellow pages. This has led to claims that local governments spend fifty four million US dollars a year delisting of unwanted pone books directory and another nine million US dollars spent on recycling them. This processes is cumbersome and very expensive. Also litigation abound like in San Franciso where yellow pages was restricted and the distribution to people who often opt in and do not utilize the yellow pages. The Environmental Protection Agency in 1999 reported that Yellow pages publishers reduced paper usages by sixty percent from 2009 – 2012 alone. Therefore yellow pages publishers sustains website which allows customers to opt out of receiving pone book directories as stated in www.YellowPagesOptOut.com. This piece of information provided for by the website is valuable.
The yellow pages is among the top 5 highest revenue generator of all search engines according to Google AdWords program presented in 2010. About 57% persons of United states Consumers had used yellowpages in 2011, 58% made use of newspapers and 745 made use of the print phone book while 76% made use of the search engines. These shows that there are multiple sources in locating local businesses. While it was reported in 2009 by a media research organization that 36% of the usage of IYP made more that 1 out of 3 leads purchased. 44% had the intention to make purchases. This equals to 80% who are ready to buy. The IYP has advantage of a less fraud than pay per click models. Some of the common names associated with yellow pages is 'attorney", florist or plumbing. Which enable categorical listing of small business for local advertisement. Also reported was that online advertising takes the largest shares of the local online advertising income earned from small businesses. Majority of the users of internet navigate personal computers through "direct navigation" which accounts for why search engines is more used for research on the internet that the yellow pages which are used for local shopping just like the contemporary prints.
The phenomenon of "yellow pages" came to limelight in 1883, when a printer named Cheyenne, Wyoming, was working on a telephone directory, he ran shot of white paper on his job and he began using yellow paper rather. Reuben H. Donnelley in 1886 made the first official Yellow Pages directory in what became the industry's invention.
In the modern day world, the yellow pages is deployed globally in both Anglophone or francophone or other language speaking countries of the world. It is not a registered name in the united stated and hence it is used freely by a lot of companies while in some other countries it is a registered name. Phone directors using the yellowpages.xx exist in about seventy five different countries today accessible by directory publishing.
In some countries in Europe like Netherland, Romania, Belgium etc. the yellow pages are referred to as Golden pages. In Germany and Australia it is known as Gelbe Seitten, while Sweden calls it Gula Sidorna, Brazil and Portugal calls the yellow pages as Páginas Amarelas. In Spain, Peru, Argentina and in other parts of latin America the yellow pages are called "páginas amarillas". It is called Town page in Japan. It is called Rainbow pages or the silver page in Sri Lanka.
Some yellow pages display their directories according to the specific geographical region under a particular heading and sometimes focusing on a particular demographic e.g Christian yellow pages. They are usually published yearly. Profit are generated by selling advertising space on listings under each headings, sales are made directly through companies or approved agencies. Example of yellow pages in USA are Verizon Superpages, DEX One's DEX, Yellowbook and the AT&T Real Yellow Pages.
United States yellowbook logo.
Several methods are adopted in creating and listing for business. It can be done through local phone companies that publish yellow pages directories by relying on customer lists and also include listing by phone services providers. Owners of business that make use of phone services different from the local phone company do certify their information has been sent to publishers for printing new directors.
Advertisement is based on full payment before the printing is done or may be done by monthly payment over the duration of the contract which is normally twelve months. All these are done in accordance with due procedures of contract terms and conditions and regulation on future billings as agreed. Online version of business directories has been develop since ICT emerged referred to as Internet Yellow Pages. Internet experts have been able to provide useful information for business owners on the advantages of internet yellow pages advertising. It was observed that there was a sharp increase in online yellow pages demand over the years. Yellow pages archives directory are important tools in historical research, trademark litigation and genealogy.
Henry Alexander a famous New England artist created the "Walking fingers" logo, a well known New England artist. He began a freelance career as an illustrator and designer. He established an extensive association with the New England Telephone Company that lasted about 30 years.
The term yellow pages formally refers to a representation of a telephone directory of businesses, adequately organized and placed in categories instead of alphabetical arrangements of business name and also advertising is sold on this directory. The concept of directories was ab initio printed on yellow paper, contrary to white pages for non-commercial placement or listings. The original term yellow pages is also applicable to online business directories.
Countries like United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and other nations also make use of yellow pages as well as the term "Walking Fingers" which began to take prominence in the 70s which was done by the Bell System-era (AT & T) which are registered trademarks, ownership varying from one country to another, normally it is being held by the major national telephone firm (or a division of the company). However, the US neither did register the logo as trademarks by AT & T and it is liberally made use by numerous publishers.

"When a party receives the conservative vote regardless of the candidate, do you think that makes it more or less likely that the party will run a genuine small government conservative?"
I'm assuming your goal is to have a conservative small government candidate run AND WIN, not simply run.
IF that party gets elected and if conservatives within that party work to shift it more towards conservatism ... Yes
IF that party does not get elected, or you decide to abandon working within it, you have NO chance of reaching your goal.
>> The only reason he ran as a Republican was because ONLY a Republican could win in that suburb. He ran the city like a liberal would.
>> "... I did come away with a valuable political lesson, one that so many "pragmatists" and "Anyone But Hillarys" have yet to learn ... putting an (R) after your name won't make you a Republican."
You seem to be mistaking pragmatism for supporting selling-out conservatism. I dare say that NO ONE on this board would support the Mayor in your example, or would call him a "pragmatist". He was a liberal - plain and simple.
On immigration, Lindsay Graham wasn't pragmatic, he was liberal. He wasn't compromising on his conservative beliefs ... he was ADVOCATING liberal ones. There is a difference between occasionally compromising conservative principles where necessary for progress, and actively campaigning for liberal principles.
There is a distinction between a pragmatic conservative like George W. Bush (retarded immigration bill notwithstanding), and an outright liberal Republican like Olympia Snowe (for instance), or Lincoln Chafee pre-switch.
Your mayor was a liberal. He didn't compromise his conservatism due to pragmatism ... he never held the conservative beliefs to begin with.
Yes, it was an accurate quote. The context of the quote has to do with everything surrounding the quote. In this case, the context of that sentence is the rest of my comments, as well as the thread, which is the discussion of which candidate deserves my vote. The context clearly indicates my conservative politics.
So, to answer your question, no. In context, my comments about Reagan would not justify a vote for a Democrat. I wrote what I wrote to indicate that the best Republican president in recent memory, perhaps ever, was not a 100%'er, as some seem to be waiting for. By his own account, Reagan compromised in order to make progress toward the goal.
Support the guy who is a great leader, could win the election and who fits your ideals as much as possible.
There is a big difference between playing at being a conservative and being a conservative trying to stake out as much of a conservative position on any given topic as they can in the prevailing environment.
This damning the reachable good for the sake of the unreachable great is pure folly.
Not sure your point ...
Do you NOT agree with the statement that "anyone but Hillery" should be elected ?
For example, if your ex-boss were running against Hillery next year, which would you prefer to become President ?
Depends on who you ask, but the reality is, political leanings fall along a spectrum. Too far right or left, and you get a kook. Everyone falls somewhere in between the extremes.
Basically, the War on Terrorism is the deciding factor there.
I won't vote for Rudy Giuliani in the primary, but I wouldn't switch to vote against him if he were nominated. He did a fine job as mayor of NY. I disagree with him on quite a few social issues, and some fiscal issues (he is a tax cutter, which is good ... but a fairly free spender). However, I rarely disagree with Giuliani on foreign affairs (which will likely be the deciding factor in my vote) or homeland security/ criminal justice (FISA, PATRIOT Act, etc) issues.
I'd much rather have someone I'm more socially and fiscally in-sync with as the nominee, though ... Thompson, Hunter, Romney and Huckabee would be my top four (probaby in that order). Personally - I'd like to see Rudy Giuliani as Secretary of Homeland Security in the upcoming Fred Thompson administration.
Ron Paul is pretty much the opposite. I agree with him on some or most social and fiscal issues ... but his foreign policy is a complete catastrophe, and his record on homeland security isn't much better. This is a deal breaker for me - if he is nominated, I'm out. Newt Gingrich for third party, baby.
If someone is going to surrender in the War on Terror, cripple homeland security, and run the country into the ground - I'd rather they have a (D) beside their name so we don't get blamed for it.
"upcoming Fred Thompson administration"
I like your style...
He's right. We have to insist on someone who espouses the belief in individual liberty and personal responsibility first and foremost, but demanding all or nothing off of the conservative menu is stupid.
That is a great observation. I think it has a lot to do with seeing the big picture and having an optimistic vision for the future. While every step one takes or decision one makes may not be the most conservative one at the time, it can be leading in the right direction rather than two steps backward or to the left (if you know what I mean.)
I never advocated abandoning working within the party to change it. I wouldn't ever advocate that.
When a party receives the conservative vote regardless of the candidate, do you think that makes it more or less likely that the party will run a genuine small government conservative?
The correct course for anyone who even considers "less likey" would be to threaten to withhold the support, and threats mean nothing with no intention to carry them out.
I vote for the primary candidate who most closely reflects my views. If they go ahead and nominate someone who isn't strong on the Bill of Rights and smaller, less intrusive government, that candidate does not receive my vote. So I both work within the party and carry out my threat to not vote for big government authoritarians. See?
>> Because a liberal reminds Republicans that conservatives are their base. It could be argued that the Clintons were the best commercial for the conservative wing of the Republican party.
George W. Bush was the Republican nominee, and President, that directly followed the Clinton Administration ... the supposed "commercial for the Republican Party" ... and Bush didn't even win by all that much. Many ideological purists on this site have claimed that Bush is the textbook definition of a pragmatic sellout, a RINO, etc.
That doesn't square with your contention that a liberal President Gore would've taught Republicans a lesson about the base. A liberal President Clinton was followed by Bush, who you'd likely contend isn't a real conservative.
>> The Republican revolution was a flood of genuine conservatives taking office. What preceded that flood?
Agreed. But, that "flood" was preceded by 40 YEARS of Democratic control of the House of Representatives (the last time Republicans had controlled the House was 1954). Sometimes losing isn't a lesson for anyone ... its just losing.
So, you're saying you'd have been FINE with President Gore since 2000 ... because it would've taught the Republicans a lesson, right? Nevermind what it'd have done to the country, the Supreme Court, the War on Terrorism, the budget, the tax rate, the economy, etc.
Let's teach the nasty RINOs a lesson - the nation be damned. I still fail to see the value, to the conservative movement, of losing elections (or nominating unelectable candidates). Elections have consequences ... we'd be in much worse shape now had you gotten your way in 2000.
>>> So, youre saying youd have been FINE with President Gore since 2000 ...
>> Absolutely not. I'm not fine with a President who spends like Bush, either.
Nominating an unelectable candidate would've basically gotten Al Gore elected in 2000 - which is precisely why electability matters.
As far as I know, Christ is not running in this election. All candidates, Republican and Democrat, WILL have imperfections, ideological and otherwise. In an election with Thompson, Romney or Giuliani VS. Clinton, Obama, or Edwards (probably Clinton) ... there are no perfect candidates, but some are more acceptable than others.
What would be unacceptable, at least to my conscience, would be in ANY WAY contributing to the election of Hillary Clinton (or Obama or Edwards) by withholding my vote from a candidate (Thompson, Romney or Giuliani) who may be ideologically imperfect, but is unquestionably FAR better for future of the country than the alternative.

Shame on them little fact checkers.
Mmmmmm Kaaaaaaay.
>> We're driving off the cliff. Would you take chance at hitting the brake and actually stopping the car, or would you rather just let off the accelerator and go off the cliff at thirty miles an hour instead of fifty? I pick hit the brake. Enough is enough. Let's nominate a conservative this time.
Its a cute analogy ... but completely nonsensical.
(1) We're not driving off a cliff. People have been saying this for decades ... yet life continues to improve in the United States. We're wealthier than we've ever been, we're growing MORE religious as a nation, and life for Americans is generally good.
After virtual complete liberal rule from 1930 to 1980, we've had 28 years of relatively conservative leadership. Bill Clinton, the most liberal President since 1980, was probably more conservative than Richard Nixon, the most conservative President from 1963 to 1980. Liberalism is on the run (to such an extent that they won't even CALL themselves liberal anymore). Taxes are lower, jobs are higher, the economy is booming, the welfare state is diminishing, the media is increasingly conservative (though there are still stalwarts), and we've finally taken back the Supreme Court.
We've survived totalitariansim, fascism, Naziism and Communism - and we will survive Islamic Radicalism. We've survived the Great Depression, World Wars I and II, Feminists, homegrown Commies, Hippies, Peaceniks, the Black Panthers, Roe v. Wade, Johnson's Welfare State, Roosevelt's Nanny State, Clinton's Pantsless State, the assassination of the Kennedys and MLK, the attack on the WTC, the resignation of President Nixon, and the entire useless Presidency of Jimmy Carter.
And, yet, we're still the strongest nation on the planet - and THE reigning model of conservative values which serves a living proof of the failure of liberalism.
There are problems, to be sure - many problems. But, generally speaking, we're not driving off a cliff. We're thriving.
(2) Even if your "driving off a cliff" analogy were accurate, seeking to nominate an unelectable candidate will not "hit the brakes" ... it will continue us toward the cliff at the fastest possible pace.
Instead of "slowing", you're picking AIM for the brake, but miss completely ... a useless gesture that only serves to make you feel better, but will ultimately do nothing to fix any problems we might have (which, incidentally, is a central theme of liberalism ... sure, it won't work, but it makes me feel better).
By definition, an unelectable candidate will lose - embarrassingly. Such a loss could cripple the conservative movement ... just as the Jimmy Carter catastophe in 1980 killed the liberal movement (to this day), and the trouncing of Barry Goldwater sent conservatives underground from 1964 to 1980.
(3) We will nominate a conservative, just as we have for the past 28 years ... Reagan, Reagan, Bush-41, Bush-41, Dole, Bush-43, Bush-43. Of course, Bush-41 didn't turn out as well as he should have ... he raised taxes, and LOST in 1992 because of it. Dole was weak, but conservative. Bush-43 is generally conservative, but often strays from fiscal conservatism.
And - since we've started nomination actual conservatives, out of those 7 nominations ... we've got 5 victories.
Fred Thompson (my bet for the nominee) is plenty conservative, with significant broad appeal and certain electability. Romney wouldn't be terrible either, and Giuliani has some appeal - but Thompson's still my bet.
(4) If Ron Paul is your guy, which I suspect he is ... a conservative he is not. Fred Thompson is a mainstream conservative with HUGE appeal to conservatives, as well as some appeal to independants. Romney and Giuliani each have similar broad appeal - though I think Thompson would have FAR more appeal to the base.
Ron Paul doesn't even appeal to most of the CONSERVATIVES on THIS board. His outlandish views on foreign affairs, national defense and homeland security are more in line with Dennis Kucinich than Ronald Reagan. His ridiculous statements on 9/11 specifically, and race relations generally, make him an entirely useless candidate. He will NOT get my vote (under any circumstances), and will likely not get the vote of most conservatives here.
If he were truly conservative ... he'd have more support from true conservatives.
" If they go ahead and nominate someone who isnt strong on the Bill of Rights and smaller, less intrusive government, that candidate does not receive my vote. "
So am I correct that you would not vote AGAINST the opposition who may be strongly against the Bill of Rights and for more intrusive governemnt ... thereby making them one vote closer to being elected ?
I will not vote for anyone who is not strong on the Bill of Rights. If the Republicans run someone who is a gun grabber, that candidate will not get my vote.
"If the Republicans run someone who is a gun grabber, that candidate will not get my vote."
That it ? When the opposition puts up someone who will grab your gun AND surrender in Iraq AND pack the Supreme Court with raging Liberals, that's not a problem for you ?
Folding your arms and sitting back is not an option in my opinion ... I may not get everything I want, but I'm damned sure not going to let them get everything they want.
As Rush is fond of saying, you're never going to get a candidate who agrees with you on everything.
To expect one is remarkably myopic.
Problem is, we haven't had a really good one since Reagan, and we are, as a base, incredibly hungry for conservative inspiration. The logical flaw we sometimes embrace is that, in order to be inspiring to conservatives, a candidate must be perfectly conservative. Likewise, I don't think we currently have a candidate who is both inspiring and perfectly conservative - and that goes for the Fredheads, too.
I think I'd prefer the inspirational leader at this point, who can rally the support of the American people in doing the 80% that he agrees with me on, than a perfectly conservative leader who can't get the support required to accomplish anything.
~"As far as I know, Christ is not running in this election."~
There's always the write-in candidate.
"We're driving off the cliff. "
They tried that scare tactic here in CA with the Gov. race.
Nomination of a conservative would have insured the election of a left wing liberal and all the illegals would have driver's licenses.
~"Nomination of a conservative would have insured the election of a left wing liberal and all the illegals would have drivers licenses."~
Then, maybe, some people would be driving over a cliff?

Soft-Scrambled Eggs with Smoked Sablefish and Trout Roe
- Total Time:
- Servings: 2
Andrew Carmellini's luxurious, creamy eggs are heavenly on their own, but serving them with smoky sable, briny roe and rich sour cream puts them over the top.
Plus: Brunch Recipes
- 6 large eggs, beaten
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- Kosher salt
- 4 ounces smoked sablefish, sliced 1/4 inch thick (see Note)
- Trout roe (see Note), thinly sliced scallions and sour cream, for garnish
- Toasted sesame, everything or plain bagels, for serving
How to make this recipe
- In a medium nonstick skillet, combine the beaten eggs with the heavy cream and 1/2 tablespoon of the butter. Cook the eggs over moderately low heat, whisking them constantly, until small curds form and the eggs are creamy, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat.
- Gently stir the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of butter into the eggs and season them lightly with salt. Spoon the eggs into 2 serving bowls and top with the sliced sablefish. Garnish with trout roe, sliced scallions and a dollop of sour cream. Serve right away with toasted bagels.
If smoked sablefish and trout roe are unavailable, smoked salmon and salmon roe can be substituted.
Suggested Pairing
Fragrant, vivid Chardonnay-based Champagne: NV Pierre Moncuit Hugues de Coulmet Blanc de Blancs Brut.

Balad MK unfazed by bid to stop her participation in coming elections; says she's thankful 'this cheap populism has boiled down to just verbal violence'
Hassan Shaalan
Published: 12.11.12, 20:33 / Israel News
Hassan Shaalan
"I'm an elected official of a sector that makes up 20% of Israel and I will continue to be one," MK Hanin Zoabi
(Balad) told Ynet Tuesday, in the wake of the recent attempt to impeach her.
The controversial Knesset member, who is the focus of an Elections Committee disqualification hearing,
seemed unfazed by the possibility that she may not be allowed to become part of the 19th Knesset following the coming January elections.
Related stories:
"There have been five attempts to disqualify the Balad
list in the past and the court clearly ruled against each of them," she said.
Zoabi forcibly removed from the plenum hall (Photo: Ohad Zwigenberg)
Zoabi told Ynet that the disqualification motion was indicative of the frivolous nature of the Israeli political arena: "Unfortunately, Israeli politics have turned into a circus," she said.
"There's no serious discussion about who can run for office and what are the limits of freedom of speech, the limits for public officials and so on.
Courting controversy? (Archives: Alex Kolomoisky)
While calls to strip Zoabi of her parliamentary privileges have become more frequent since her participation in the 2010 Gaza flotilla,
the MK refuses to take the issue personally.
"I think we are gaining popularity. We were very prolific this Knesset term, starting with working against racist legislation, supporting small businesses and looking out for the Arab municipalities, as well as looking out for the Palestinian collective in Israel. I believe we'll get at least four mandates."

So I accidentally wrote a Haskell answer to a Scala question recently. Being rather familiar with Haskell, the solution came quite easily to me:
myMaxBy :: (a -> a -> Ordering) -> [a] -> [a]
myMaxBy _ [] = undefined
myMaxBy f (x:xs) = foldr step [x] xs
where step y acc@(z:_) = case f y z of
GT -> [y]
EQ -> y:acc
LT -> acc
Then someone reminded me that it was a Scala question. I set out to transate my code into Scala, and after much pain I settled for:
(List(xs.head) /: xs.tail) { (acc, y) =>
y compare acc.head match {
1 => List(y)
0 => y :: acc
-1 => acc
But I could not for the life of me get the Scala type system to bend to my will and generalize this into a function where
xs and
compare are inputs (ideally, curried inputs with the comparator first). Though this is surely due to my general unfamiliarity with Scala, I also slightly blame Scala's complex (though very powerful) type system. Can you do some hand-holding and walk me through how I could turn this into a generalized function, with a type signature similar to the Haskell equivalent? (Read: as general as.) Please also demonstrate usage, if it is more complicated than
