Apologies for letting the site go down: my hosting service didn't pick up on a change of bank I made when I moved to Manhattan for school. I've been very, very busy, and what little blog-like activity I've engaged in since the fall has been on Facebook. Yep, as a college student, I find Facebook very useful... who'd a thunk it?

Now that you're in the Big Apple, and if you train in martial arts, you might check out the Zujitsu Federation, founded by Chaka Zulu. The style is interesting (focus on street selfdefense). I took black belt classes from Grandmaster Zulu many moons ago. There is a list of dojos in NYC.
Thanks Cathy, but I'm a Bujinkan practitioner, and I have no intention of switching arts now. I train in a small dojo here with a teacher I respect, and I'm *very* picky about that type of thing.
I have to admit though that curiosity impelled me to search on "Zujitsu" and "Chaka Zulu" since my eyebrows shot up at the names. They seemed to have disappeared from the websites associated with them. Anyway, at best it looks like a syncretic mix of various styles. Been there, seen that, not particularly interesting to me. But thanks sincerely for the recommendation, taken in the spirit you meant it.
Would you recommend the Bujinkan Dojo in Sacramento? I am interested after having done some research. It would be my first exposure to formal training and it is within driving distance (20 miles) of my home.
The order Primates was established by Carl Linnaeus in 1758, in the tenth edition of his book Systema Naturae, for the genera Homo (humans), Simia (other apes and monkeys), Lemur (prosimians) and Vespertilio (bats). In the first edition of the same book (1735), he had used the name Anthropomorpha for Homo, Simia and Bradypus (sloths). In 1839, Henri-Marie Ducrotay de Blainville, following Linnaeus and imitating his nomenclature, established the orders Secundates (including the suborders Chiroptera, Insectivora and Carnivora), Tertiates (or Glires) and Quaternates (including Gravigrada, Pachyderma and Ruminantia), but these new taxa were not accepted.
