I don't think any foreigners have been allowed to wander around N. Korea in the past 50 years. If you know any personally I would love to talk to them. Also, didn't quite understand what you meant by 'equivocate'. In my understanding of the English language equivocate means to be evasive. Apart from that, your post just reiterates exactly what I already said, either on DD or on mywebsite. --__--__-- Message: 3 Date: Mon, 2 May 2005 05:13:55 -0700 (PDT) From: Charles Richards To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net Subject: [The_Dojang] Hip Joint Reply-To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net Dear list, Does anyone have some good information on hip joint injuries and/or preventative stretching/strengthening. I have an advanced student who believes his hip might have "poped out of socket" while doing the seated (V-shaped) splits and a gentle circular rotation of the upper body. Later during the same class it "poped back in." I'm sure if the hip joint had actually come out of the socket we would have been going to the hospital, but it's possible he mis-aligned some tendons or ligaments.... Any thoughts or good sights to research would be appreciated on or off list.

We are pleased to announce the publication of the Spring 2005 issue of the e KOREA JOURNAL. This issue consists of two special topics and other articles. I. Korean Buddhist Response to Modernity The concept of =A1=B0modern=A1=B1 or =A1=B0modernity=A1=B1 is a significa= nt subject that must be addressed by Korean academics. Many controversial= questions have been continually raised, such as when Korean society bega= n to enter the modern period, how Korean modernity has differed from that= of the West, and how the modernity that Korea has experienced has taken = different forms depending on class, ideology, religion, and gender. KOREA JOURNAL, in this context, deals with Korean Buddhism=A1=AFs =A1=B0m= odern experience=A1=B1 and its response to modernity from various perspec= tives. Examining modern Korean Buddhist scholarship focused on two repres= entative philosophers, Bak Jong-hong and Kim Dong-hwa, Cho Sungtaek argue= s that Buddhist scholarship in modern Korea has accepted, without any cri= ticism, Western-centered perspectives, and as such Cho emphasizes that it= is time to approach Korean Buddhism under Koreans=A1=AF own theoretical = framework. Huh Woosung suggests a way for the Korean Buddhist community t= o move forward in the future, by shedding light on the life and thought o= f Baek Yongseong, who maintained a balance between mukti and karma during= his life. Through a comparative analysis of Han Yong-un=A1=AFs famous wo= rk, Joseon bulgyo yusillon and the =A1=B0Hanguk bulgyo gaehyeogan,=A1=B1 = which until now has not drawn academic attention, Kim Kwang Sik provides = an opportunity to make us understand more deeply Han=A1=AFs thoughts rega= rding Buddhist reform. Pori Park examines reform implemented by the Korea= n Buddhist community, which struggled to cope with the dual challenges of= modernity and national independence. While assuming that different socia= l roles imposed on different genders bring different experiences of moder= nity, Jin Y. Park examines the life and thought of Kim Iryeop, a Buddhist= nun who has, until now, rarely received academic attention, and then sho= ws how and why she more thoroughly pursued freedom through recourse to Bu= ddhism. According to Park, Buddhism was a path to modernity as well as a = means to overcome it. - The Formation of Modern Buddhist Scholarship: The Case of Bak Jong-hong= and Kim Dong-hwa / Cho Sungtaek (Korea Univ.) - A Monk of Mukti and Karma: The Life and Thought of Baek Yongseong / Huh= Woosung (Kyunghee Univ.) - A Study of Han Yong-un=A1=AFs =A1=B0On the Reform of Korean Buddhism=A1= =B1 / Kim Kwang Sik (Bucheon College) - Korean Buddhist Reforms and Problems in the Adoption of Modernity durin= g the Colonial Period / Pori Park (Arizona State Univ., USA) - Gendered Response to Modernity: Kim Ireop and Buddhism / Jin Y.

Perspectives on China=A1=AFs Northeast Project Yoon Hwy-Tak summarizes the goals of the historical justification found i= n China=A1=AFs Northeast Project and then points to many historiographica= l flaws in the Chinese argument, which prioritizes dealing with the impac= t of political changes in the Korean peninsula on northeast China. Adopti= ng two ways of addressing the issue of the historical succession of Gogur= yeo--how the people of Goguryeo saw China and how the Chinese and Koreans= regarded Goguryeo after its fall--Lee Sun Keun points oout that while Ch= ina has made efforts to sever its relationship with Goguryeo, the Korean = nation, from Silla to modern Korea, has seen Goguryeo as part of its own = history. - China=A1=AFs Northeast Project and Korean History / Yoon Hwy Tak (Kogur= yo Research Foundation) - On the Historical Succession of Goguryeo in Northeast Asia / Lee Sun Ke= un (Catholic Univ.

Kim Hyo= ungchan finds a new way of viewing nature in Silhak thought, which is dif= ferent from both Neo-Confucian and Western philosophy.

Reply-To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net I have never wanted to be the PR man for a souless despot. On the other hand I don't think we here in the States can ignore the fact that we contributed quite a bit to the current situation in Korea. There are not a few people in South Korea who are as ruffled with the way in which we dealt with Korea over the years. Some historians here will remember that the Korean King was rebuffed when he approached the European powers about his country. Nor did we do anything when the Japanese shifted their policy from "protectorate" to "colony" following the violent supression of the March First Movement. And lets not forget how all of this started with the Russo-Japanese War and the treaty signed in New Hampshire. I don't remember the Koreans ever asking to have their country divided by the Western powers in the first place. And I can't say that we have been all that fair with the Korean people in our support of dictatorships in the South, either, or repressive political policies if it comes to that. If North Korea is having trouble getting its economy going maybe we ought to think about sending back some of the gold we mined out of their mountains at the turn of the 19th century. FWIW.

If it had your right, it would have been reduced at the hospital. Where is the pain and with what type of movements? My initial guess is that the injury is to a groin muscle. Sometimes the ball will slightly move inside the socket and not cause any permanent problems. I suspect that could have happened since you referred to him as a senior and probably flexible student. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Charles Richards" To: Sent: Monday, May 02, 2005 8:13 AM Subject: [The_Dojang] Hip Joint > Dear list, > > Does anyone have some good information on hip joint injuries and/or > preventative stretching/strengthening.

Just a personal experience... A few years back something popped in the front of my hip while doing simple front stretch kicks. I must have done a million of them thru the years, not sure why this one time it went pop. It hurt pretty badly for about 15 mins and then hurt just a bit for another year or so. Finally time came thru and healed whatever it was that happened. A tendon or something went pop, but no way did the hip come out of the socket.
