From Nigel Collins, editor-in-chief of Ring Magazine, opined that the term "ring" meant that during the early fights, spectators formed a "ring" around the boxers. But this led to problems with the spectators occasionally jumping into the fray.  So they eventially had to encircle the fighters with ropes.  Naturally, it was easiest to create a square, or rectangle, with four posts in the corners.  Eventially, the fighting surface became a heavy tensioned canvas and was raised off the floor.  But the term "ring" has kept on.\n\nCollins' summary here:\n\nhttp://espn.go.com/magazine/vol3no26answerguy.html

It doesnt hurt it my opinion. They clamp it down with some kinda tool thats hurts just a little b/c its pinching your skin together but after that you really cant feel the ring go through!!!

Basically your only job is to hold on to the ring, so don't lose it or get it stuck on your own finger.\n\nThey should have a rehearsal before the wedding day to show you what to do and where to stand.

You could forgo rings completely and do a "binding" or "handfasting" ceremony instead, this is done with cords - the officiant loosely ties the hands of the bride and groom together, binding them. (The cords are removed after the "binding").  If you need a ceremony for this email me and I will find one to suit you.\n\n Or if you want to do the rings just have the ring fitted to your little finger or your middle finger.  The audience wont know what finger your ring was put on unless you make a big deal out of it.\n\nGood Luck

If you need exact numbers, then you will have problems. How exactly do you define a ring? \n\nRoughly speaking, from references,\n\nSaturn 7 major rings; 15 named rings\nJupiter 3 rings\nNeptune 4 rings\nUranus 11 rings\n\nThis gives a total of 25 rings. However, look at some of the pictures in the references. If one counts more minor rings, there are a lot more than 25 total rings. According to the last reference, Saturn alone has literally thousands of rings, and the total number is unknown.

That's a damn good question. I'm married and ALWAYS wear my ring. I have friends who are married, but don't wear theirs. I've asked and always get some limp dick excuse about not wanting to ruin it or they don't like wearing jewelry (but they wear other rings and bracelets).\n\nDoesn't make sense to me either!

The boxing ring is the space in which a boxing match occurs. A modern ring is square, set on a raised platform and bound around with four parallel rows of rope attached to posts at each corner of the ring. Currently professional contests have to have an international standard ring. However there are a number of different international standards.\n\nThe name ring is an atavism from when contests were fought in a roughly drawn circle on the ground, the name ring continued with the Jack Broughton rules (1743) specifying a small circle in the centre of the fight area where the boxers met at the start of each round. The first square ring was introduced by the Pugilistic Society in 1838, the ring was specified as 24 feet square and bound by two ropes

I think the whole tradition of rings should be done away with.  Is it really necessary to spend thousand of dollars on pieces of metal to show your commitment to each other.  Save the money and invest or buy something you actually need.  If you are going to stay with this old ritual I dont see any reason to try and update by sharing the cost so I guess I would say let the man buy both if you insist on tradion.  It is traditional after all.

You know, what the other users have said is right. You need to do your assignment by yourself!!\nThese are just a few points to help you along: \n\n-Some days before turning fifty, Frodo was visited by Gandalf, who revealed that the Ring he had (received from his uncle Bilbo) was really Sauron's One Ring\n- Sauron had begun to look for the Ring in the Shire, because he had managed to find out where the ring was and who was keeping it. \n- Frodo had been under the influence of the Ring ever since Bilbo bequeathed it to him, and it had some negative effects on him. \n- After the talk with Gandalf, Frodo decided to leave, and he was unexpectedly joined by his friend and employee Sam Gamgee.\n\nThe actual journey away from the Shire begins in chapter 3 "Three is company".\n\nI just wanted to say that I think it's great that you have to read this book! I know it seems to be way too long, but believe me, it's a great adventure and much more.\nI'll be checking to see if you have more questions and I'll try to help, but if this is your assignment PLEASE READ THE BOOK!!

I can't phrase it better than Wikipedia:\n\n"The name ring is an atavism from when contests were fought in a roughly drawn circle on the ground, the name ring continued with the Jack Broughton rules (1743) specifying a small circle in the centre of the fight area where the boxers met at the start of each round.

When my husband and i were planning our wedding, we went to purchase him a wedding ring. we went to a ma and pop jewelery store in the town that we live in(keep it in the community). He found one he liked and it had an Opal mount in it. Well we do construction for a living and neither one of us wear our rings to work. but we do at home and we do alot around our house. Over the first year his ring got bent all to hell. It was a very thin ring. So for our anniversary i wanted to have it remade. I had a bunch of scrap gold to put torwords the construction of the new ring to make it thicker. So I decided to take it back to the store we purchased it from.I explained the situation to the lady. NOT that the situation mattered.I just wanted to pay to make a new ring. She told me that I was lieing about him wearing the ring to work.In my own rage I argued it with her knowing the situation did not matter.I just Knew That bhe didnt.But she just knew that he did. I ended up taking the ring to a locl pawn shop and a jeweler there remade a Georgous replica of the origional and alot more durable
