  Classical Wing Chun Australasia: Online Articles - Rattan Rings
These two depictions of the rings are sufficient in their acknowledgment of their use both prior to and during the time of the famous Shaolin monks.
Most movements with the ring are defensive and therefore circular in nature, however sudden striking actions accompanied by a single defensive hand (lin sil dai dar) demonstrate the offensive capabilities of this apparatus.
By the time a student commences training with the ring, the basics of stance, footwork and arm/hand positions have been mastered and the transition from open hand to ring technique is quickly achieved.

 Saturn, in astronomy: The Ring System
The three brightest rings are lettered from the outermost, A, B, and C. The A, B, and C rings dissolved into more than 1,000 narrow ringlets, 100 of which are in the Cassini division.
The outer F ring was found to contain braids, knots, and strands, possibly caused by nearby moons that shepherd it, that is, limit the extent of a planetary ring through gravitational forces.
The origin of the rings is unknown, although it is believed that they may have been formed from larger satellites that were shattered by the impact of comets and meteoroids.

They are (typically) the ones who create the ring, create the homepage containing information about the ring, and perform various management tasks associated with keeping the ring running smoothly.
The most common way is through a form on the ring homepage (http://www.mwt.net/~bandit/ring.html) that sends all of the sites information to the webring to be placed in your rings database.
The sole responsibility for that is on the ringmaster of the ring.

It is easily identified by the bright yellow ring around it's neck.
The rest of the body is dark grey to fl, and the underside is a beautiful yellow, to orange, to red, lined with little dots (hence the "punctatus" portion of its scientific name - punctuation marks).

 APOD: 2003 June 5 - Ring of Fire from Cape Wrath   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Just such a view was possible for observers in the far northern hemisphere as the new Moon slid across the solar disk on May 31st.
Still, for astronomical adventurers at Cape Wrath on the northwestern coast of Scotland, the eastern sky was cloudy on eclipse day.
But fortunately the Sun became visible a few minutes prior to the annular phase and determined astronomer Hans Coeckelberghs was able to capture this dramatic telescopic image of the eclipsed Sun's ring of fire looming through a reddened, cloud-streaked sky.

 The New Yorker: The Critics: A Critic At Large   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
The first punctuation mistake in “Eats, Shoots and Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation” (Gotham; $17.50), by Lynne Truss, a British writer, appears in the dedication, where a nonrestrictive clause is not preceded by a comma.
She likes to animate her punctuation marks, to talk about the apostrophe and the dash as though they were little cartoon characters livening up the page.
As she points out, in earlier times punctuation did a lot more work than it does today, and some of the work involved adjusting the timing in sentences.

Punctuation in chemical names is frequently of great importance, especially to avoid ambiguity.

 Fairy Rings (MushroomExpert.Com)
Regardless of what prompts the mushrooms, the phenomenon of the ever-widening ring of mycelial activity is frequently observed, and can even be seen without the mushrooms themselves; the grass is typically darker where the mycelium is active (see the top illustration).
A Norwegian study of Marasmius oreades fairy rings in coastal grasslands is attempting to determine whether new rings are cloned from old rings, or whether they result from spores falling in new locations and germinating new mycelia.
But it is not the only fairy ring mushroom; this is a case where the "common name" for a mushroom can get in the way of successful identification--and it may be one of the reasons that Chlorophyllum molybdites, which also grows in rings with some regularity, causes so many poisonings.

 Webring: Ringmaster FAQ
The Ring ID is a string (sequence of characters) that uniquely identify a particular ring on the Webring server.
Once the ring is up and running, it will take significantly less time to manage it.
It is then up to the ringmaster (or perhaps another member of the ring, if the ring is set up that way) to verify that the new site is actually appropriate/eligible for ring membership and then insert them in the ring.

 Amazon.com: Eats, Shoots & Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation: Books: Lynne Truss   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
But this spirited and wittily instructional little volume, which was a U.K. #1 bestseller, is not a grammar book, Truss insists; like a self-help volume, it "gives you permission to love punctuation." Her approach falls between the descriptive and prescriptive schools of grammar study, but is closer, perhaps, to the latter.
Truss's vocabulary (a "fag" is a cigarette in England; "rubbers" are erasers), and her statements about placing all punctuation marks outside quotation marks and the frequency with which she uses Britishisms like "actually" and "obviously" will stand out to readers already comfortable with their grip on grammar and punctuation.
"In the family of punctuation, where the full stop [period] is the daddy and the comma is mummy, and the semicolon quietly practises the piano with crossed hands, the exclamation mark is the big attention-deficit brother who gets over-excited and breaks things and laughs too loudly" (pp.

The list should conform in sequencing and punctuation to that in recent issues of the journal.
