Just moments before the graduation ceremony at East Liverpool High School on Sunday, the senior class gathered in a nearby auditorium. Together, they decided to do something that would make national headlines.

The week before students learned they would no longer be allowed to perform “The Lord’s Prayer” – a graduation tradition dating back some 70 years.

The school district banned the song after the Freedom From Religion Foundation complained that “The Lord’s Prayer” violated the U.S. Constitution and promoted religion.”

Fearing a possible lawsuit, the district dropped the tradition – which seemed to appease the group of perpetually-offended atheists, agnostics and free-thinkers from Wisconsin. You can read more about these loathsome bullies inmy best-selling book “God Less America.”

The school district’s decision devastated the entire community -- especially students in the high school’s esteemed music program.

“It breaks my heart,” choir director Lisa Ensinger told me. “Our students are really sad.”

It appeared a cherished tradition would be eradicated to satisfy the bloodlust of a bunch of out-of-town bullies.

And that brings me back to the senior class – gathered in that room last Sunday. They were lining up to march when some of them began talking about that long time tradition – now outlawed.

“Pretty much everyone was in agreement,” senior Bobby Hill told me.

The graduating class had decided to defy the Freedom From Religion Foundation.

“The class thought it was wrong that we were being forced to remove it,” Bobby said.

Bobby’s father was sitting in the bleachers inside the gymnasium when he received a text message from his son.

“He told me when and how they were going to do it,” Mr. Hill told me. “I was thrilled to find out.”

Just after the valedictorian welcomed the crowd, the seniors stood to their feet and began committing an act of disobedience.

“Our Father which art in Heaven…”

“I was very proud to see the youth, our future leaders, decide to stand up for what they believed in,” Mr. Hill said. “I can’t lie—I teared up.”

It was an emotional moment – a poignant example of Americans standing up for what they know to be true – for what they know to be right.

“I’ve always taught my two boys to stand up for what you believe is right,” Mr. Hill said. “The same lesson my parents taught me. It doesn’t matter if it’s over religion or something else – take a stand.”

Technically, the graduation class did not break any rules. They were ordered not to sing “The Lord’s Prayer.” The school district did not say anything about reciting “The Lord’s Prayer.”

Clever, kids.

Meanwhile, back in Wisconsin those meddling menaces from the Freedom From Religion Foundation are muttering under the breath, “Curses, foiled again.”

A woman from Bosnia and Herzegovina who doesn’t want to reveal her identity shared the powerful formula that helped her to cure cancer. The formula is based on honey and ginger and it helped her recuperate in very short time without any pain. This woman was suffering from cancer of the endocrine glands and was on life support for 20 days. She started drinking the formula and recovered without chemotherapy or surgery. Today she is full of life. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Preparation and use: - Get two big ginger roots. - Wash them thoroughly and chop them in small pieces. You can use electric food chopper. - Mix the ginger with a pound of homemade honey. - Put the mixture in a jar and take one tbsp. 3-4 times a day. It’s important to use a wooden, ceramic or plastic spoon as metal utensils are strictly forbidden. You should be able to notice the first effects after a couple of days, and the healing, in her words, is “a rise from death”.

The, er, bottom line is a combo of moves that target your entire butt – not just your gluteus maximus You also need to home in on your gluteus medius and minimus to truly defy gravity. Part B is geared to framing your derriere by minimising surrounding body fat. (There’s no point having rock-hard glutes if they’re hidden.) Which is where the cardio and clean eating come in. Incline walking and running, stepping machine work and bike interval sessions are great ways to simultaneously burn calories and, therefore, body fat and further steel your glutes. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Exercise 1: Heel sky raise What it does: This exercise will give your butt shape and firmness. How to do it: Start on your knees and elbows. From here, put one leg out straight and flex your foot. Focus on lifting this leg from your butt (leg must stay straight or you are not using your butt). Slowly raise your leg from the ground until it’s in line with your body and lower back to the ground. Do it right: Perform this slowly, pausing at the top of each repetition. This is a small and controlled movement. If you raise too high you will use your back muscle instead of your butt. To really make it work, keep the height range between the ground and your torso. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

Exercise 2: Single leg ballet kicks

What it does: Creates long, lean hamstrings and a perky butt.

How to do it: Start by correcting your posture, drawing your belly into your spine while finding something straight ahead to focus on with your eyes. Keeping your chest up and shoulders back, bring one hand down to touch the opposite toe, staying perfectly aligned and getting the back leg as high as you can.

Do it right: Your aim is to get maximum stretch down the hamstring of your standing leg. This exercise is to be performed slowly and with lots of control. With practice this exercise produces amazing results.

Exercise 3: Lower half lunge

What it does: These lunges will have your legs burning while forcing your glutes to contract without rest, targeting several muscle groups simultaneously and elevating your heart rate.

How to do it: Start in a lunge position with your back knee on the ground. Keeping your chest up, torso straight and belly pinned to the spine, bring your knee off the ground until you’re halfway up. Then go back to the ground.

Do it right: Do 15 pulses each leg and perform slowly for best results.

Exercise 4: Bottle

What it does: This exercise cleverly targets all areas of the glute and will help give you a pert, rounded butt!

How to do it: Start by lying on your stomach with perfect alignment and hands placed on the ground under your chin. Feet should be together and flexed. Using one leg at a time, imagine you have a bottle on the outside of your foot and you’re trying to get your foot up and over the bottle. Come back to starting position, making your way back over the imaginary bottle.

Do it right: During this exercise, keep your leg straight and glute contracted as you want to focus on using your glute to lift your leg.

Exercise 5: Pelvic tilts

What it does: This exercise will help lift your butt and stop it looking as though it’s sitting on the back of your legs.

How to do it: Lie on your back with your knees up and toes pointed up (on your heels). Slowly raise your hips off the ground until your pelvis is like a bridge. Hold this position for five seconds, focusing on squeezing your glutes up and belly down (imagine you are trying to get them to meet in the middle). Release and repeat.

The rules

Cardio: Do cardio sessions on days between strength training days. If you’re doing interval training (HIIT), aim for 20 to 30 minutes. For low-intensity cardio sessions (LISS), aim for 45 to 50 minutes. HOT BUTT TIP: If you can only fit three to four workouts into your week, optimise workouts by choosing strength and HIIT over steady state cardio sessions.

Strength: Integrate this butt workout into your strength training, which you'll do three to four times a week. Repeat these exercises as a circuit and work up to three sets of 15 reps.
