Er gewinnt die Schlacht, kehrt heim – und es ist seine Tochter Iphis, die ihn freudig tanzend begrüßt. Jephtha ist innerlich zerrissen durch die Frage, ob man um jeden Preis halten muss, was man Gott versprochen hat und wird eine tragische Figur in tiefstem menschlichen Konflikt, gespalten in seiner Liebe zu Gott und der zum eigenen Kind. Die ungeheure emotionale Ausdruckskraft der Händelschen Musik, die philosophische Tiefe der alttestamentarischen Geschichte, der Thomas Morells Libretto eine neue Wendung verleiht und die wir in unserer Produktion mit biblischen und klassischen Texten ergänzen, machen JEPHTHA so bewegend, kraftvoll und intensiv.

Professional teams track their player's positions using GPS (Global Positioning System). This report is divided into Besöksadress: two parts, both focusing on applying collective motion to football. Ångströmlaboratoriet Lägerhyddsvägen 1 Hus 4, Plan 0 The goal of the first part was to both see if a set of cheaper GPS units could be used to analyze the collective motion of a youth football team. 15 football players did two Postadress: experiments and played three versus three football matches against each other while Box 536 751 21 Uppsala wearing a GPS. The first experiment measured the player's ability to control the ball while the second experiment measured how well they were able to move together as Telefon: a team. Different measurements were measured from the match and Spearman 018 – 471 30 03 correlations were calculated between measurements from the experiments and Telefax: matches. Players which had good ball control also scored more goals in the match and 018 – 471 30 00 received more passes.

Each toy included in this kit has its own story, design, and body of tricks. Most of them have a lower barrier to entry than juggling, and the following lessons of good posture, mindfulness, problem solving, and goal setting apply to all. Before getting started with any of the skill toys, it is important to remember to relax. Stand with legs shoulder width apart, bend your knees, and take deep breaths. Many of them require you to absorb energy. We have found that the more stressed a player is, the more likely he/she will be to struggle. Not surprisingly, adults tend to have this problem more than kids. If you have players getting frustrated, remind them to relax. Playing should be fun! Also, remind yourself and other players that even the drops or mess-ups can give us valuable information. If they observe what is happening when they attempt to use the skill toys, they can use this information to problem solve.

  • Paul K. Macdonald and the Surprising Success of Joseph M
    Graceful Decline? Graceful Decline? Paul K. MacDonald and The Surprising Success of Joseph M. Parent Great Power Retrenchment How do great powers respond to acute decline? The erosion of the relative power of the United States has scholars and policymakers reexamining this question. The central issue is whether prompt retrenchment is desirable or probable. Some pessi- mists counsel that retrenchment is a dangerous policy, because it shows weak- ness and invites attack. Robert Kagan, for example, warns, “A reduction in defense spending . would unnerve American allies and undercut efforts to gain greater cooperation. There is already a sense around the world, fed by ir- responsible pundits here at home, that the United States is in terminal decline. Many fear that the economic crisis will cause the United States to pull back from overseas commitments. The announcement of a defense cutback would be taken by the world as evidence that the American retreat has begun.”1 Robert Kaplan likewise argues, “Husbanding our power in an effort to slow America’s decline in a post-Iraq and post-Afghanistan world would mean avoiding debilitating land entanglements and focusing instead on being more of an offshore balancer....While this may be in America’s interest, the very signaling of such an aloof intention may encourage regional bullies.... [L]essening our engagement with the world would have devastating conse- quences for humanity. The disruptions we witness today are but a taste of what is to come should our country ºinch from its international responsibili- ties.”2 The consequences of these views are clear: retrenchment should be avoided and forward defenses maintained into the indeªnite future.3 Other observers advocate retrenchment policies, but they are pessimistic Paul K.
