  • On Modernity, Identity and White-Collar Boxing. Phd
    From Rookie to Rocky? On Modernity, Identity and White-Collar Boxing Edward John Wright, BA (Hons), MSc, MA Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. September, 2017 Abstract This thesis is the first sociological examination of white-collar boxing in the UK; a form of the sport particular to late modernity. Given this, the first research question asked is: what is white-collar boxing in this context? Further research questions pertain to social divisions and identity. White- collar boxing originally takes its name from the high social class of its practitioners in the USA, something which is not found in this study. White- collar boxing in and through this research is identified as a practice with a highly misleading title, given that those involved are not primarily from white-collar backgrounds. Rather than signifying the social class of practitioner, white-collar boxing is understood to pertain to a form of the sport in which complete beginners participate in an eight-week boxing course, in order to compete in a publicly-held, full-contact boxing match in a glamorous location in front of a large crowd. It is, thus, a condensed reproduction of the long-term career of the professional boxer, commodified for consumption by others. These courses are understood by those involved to be free in monetary terms, and undertaken to raise money for charity. As is evidenced in this research, neither is straightforwardly the case, and white-collar boxing can, instead, be understood as a philanthrocapitalist arrangement. The study involves ethnographic observation and interviews at a boxing club in the Midlands, as well as public weigh-ins and fight nights, to explore the complex interrelationships amongst class, gender and ethnicity to reveal the negotiation of identity in late modernity.

  • IN PURSUIT a Pilot’S Guide to Online Air Combat
    IN PURSUIT A Pilot’s Guide to Online Air Combat JOHAN KYLANDER For Barry “Carrot” Hayes Copyright © Johan Kylander 2005 2 JUNE 12: TRIPLE TRIP I step into my personal P40-B at Cambrai, strap in, slide the canopy back and go through the pre-launch routine: tailwheel locked, trim wheel fully back, RPM set at maximum, listen and scan for intruders. None around. It's 13:45 local time and the hound dogs are too lazy to even yap in the blistering French afternoon. I fire the engine and slam the throttle full forward, clearing the south hangers with feet to spare. I ess and quarter-roll all the way up to 4 km where I reduce to normal pitch and cruise east over the battlefield, still quarter-rolling and weaving gently. I check my six every 2 seconds. There’s nothing to be seen at the Meuse apart from a grand vista at 4,5 km. No enemy formations, not even a single recon plane. Oh well. I cut to fine pitch, anticipating a boring lonely wait over Bertrix-Acremont. I’m doing about 340 IAS as I come in from southwest of the field. Hey, there’s a bogey diving in west at about 4 km – probably friendly. I lose him in the clouds as I swing left to take up orbit. 2 seconds later I spot a 109 arcing in on my six from the west, co-alt. Well well, who’d a thunk! Someone else must have been here to stoke the waffles not long ago.

    Journal #4777 from sdc 9.30.20 Eleven Historic Places in America That Desperately Need Saving Census and Voting Reminder Indigenous Tribes Are Using Drones to Protect the Amazon Joe Bliss, last surviving member of Pack's inaugural Hall of Fame class, dies at 87 Eleven Historic Places in America That Desperately Need Saving The National Trust for Historic Preservation names these sites as the most endangered cultural treasures in our country By Elissaveta M. Brandon SMITHSONIANMAG.COM | Sept. 28, 2020, 1:53 p.m. A civil rights landmark in Mississippi, a Native American site in California and a public housing complex in Texas may have little in common at first glance, but a recent list brings them all together in the name of preservation. The National Trust for Historic Preservation has unveiled this year's list of America's 11 Most Endangered Historic Places. The nominations bring a sliver of hope to a diverse set of buildings, landscapes and historic neighborhoods, which would be destroyed or face irreparable damage without immediate advocacy. In the 33-year history of this list, over 300 places have been declared under imminent threat, and 95 percent of them have been saved. "One of our priorities in all of our work at the National Trust is to utilize historic places of all kinds to tell the full history of our country," says Katherine Malone-France, the Trust’s chief preservation officer. "Because a truer national narrative is a firmer foundation for our shared values and identity." To build the list, the Trust combs through hundreds of applications, looking for sites that are threatened but have strong local support fighting for their survival.

  • Boxing Essay.Rtf
    Joel Doe English 110 Hale September 16, 2007 Evaluation Essay Fight Night Round 3 A Pugilist’s Videogame Dream “Master the Sweet Science.” That is a quote that one can find on the back of the CD case of Fight Night Round 3 for the Playstation 2. This game is the third installment by EA Sports and is apart of the most successful line of boxing games in videogame history. Since the release of Fight Night 2004 , the first installment, this series has received critical acclaim based on its realism, the wide selection of boxers, and the unique controls used for putting your opponent to the canvas. As a fan of boxing, I can attest to greatness of these aspects of the game. While it is possibly the best boxing game I have ever played, there are still portions of this game that can bug both boxing fans and videogame players alike. Luckily, these are only minor details which do not detract much from the overall fun of mastering the sweet science of virtual boxing. Realism is the greatest aspect of this game which sets it apart from all other boxing games. From the blood dripping from cuts to the increased panting of your boxer as the match continues, these encompass the realistic feeling of this game. You can watch your boxer bruise and feel him wear down as each round ends. Fear not, for you can use cold compression to reduce swelling and gels to stop bleeding so that the fight will not be stopped by technical knockout. Unlike the first Fight Night game, you are unable to repair your boxer between rounds, forcing you to suffer all of the cuts and bruises you collect.

FIGHTING FALCONS SCHOOL OF MARTIAL ARTS www.fighting-falcons.co.uk Tay Family Fist Chinese Boxing Tay Family Chinese boxing was founded by the Falcons Head Coach Gordon Mitchell. Coach Mitchell started studying Lau Gar Kung Fu in 1985, by 1991 he was a member of the Lau Gar National Squad with national honours in competitive fighting, self-defence and traditional forms competition. In 1999 retired from International competition and looKed for his next challenge in the world of Martial Arts. Having been a great admirer of Bruce Lee’s teachings and philosophies, he started on his own voyage of self-discovery and spent the next ten years studying other Martial Disciplines such as Jeet Kune Do, Ju Jitsu, Muay Thai, Western Boxing and the combat systems used by the modern day military such as Krav Maga and Spetsnaz Systema. Today the Chinese KicKboxing system Tay Family Fist, named after coach Mitchell’s Chinese family name Tay, has matured into a complete but modern style of Martial Arts. Instead of stylised forms, the Tay system relies heavily on two person drills, the benefit being the use of realism rather than imagination to perfect the form and application of techniques.

  • Fighting a Taller Opponent in Boxing and MMA
    Fighting a Taller Opponent in Boxing and MMA Fighting a taller opponent – Fedor Vs some giant dude Ever wondered how to fight someone taller than you? Course you have that’s why you’re here…the following are my tips for boxing or fighting a taller opponent and/or a bigger opponent, I hope they help: 1. Get in the pocket & counter-strike If you are short, or short for your weight class like me, then you pretty much have to get used to taking a jab. Take it on your forehead if you have to, but try not to back up. Ideally you’ll slip and counter, or block and counter, or even, as mentioned, take it on your forehead by keeping your chin right down. You have to be really tough for this to work, which unfortunately I am definitely not. Taller guys can keep safe, at the end of a jab, and win fights without taking any damage at all. It’s not as easy for a shorter fighter, generally speaking you have to be more aggressive and get stuck in. If you continually back up after a jab, you’ll never get in your own range and you won’t be able to counter. If possible you want to move forward, and just ‘walk through’ your opponents jab. For example, if you and your partner are both in orthodox stance (left foot forwards) you could practice parrying a jab and stepping forward (and to the side a bit) with a right foot. As outlined in my amazing illustration: Jab Normal – Then Step forward with back foot and jab again Remember, you do this to counter your opponent’s jab – Move your head to the right and off centre line, then throw your own jab.
