18 Year-Old Mother Kills Intruder

2012-01-04T22:13:00.001-05:00

A gripping story of self-defense. McKinley said she asked the dispatcher, "I've got two guns in my hand -- is it OK to shoot him if he comes in this door? I'm here by myself with my infant baby, can I please get a dispatcher out here immediately?" "I can't tell you that you can do that but you do what you have to do to protect your baby," the dispatcher said. The 911 conversation lasted for 21 minutes....

Where to begin

2011-12-29T21:03:00.001-05:00

How about at the beginning? Some of you may have noticed my absence from posting. Loooong story, but let me summarize by saying that my company was sold, and the entire sales force was laid off, including me, and I'm busy looking for a suitable replacement, and have some good prospects. No more social media for me. I'm not on Facebook, Google+, or Twitter. I don't need the distraction, and have other reasons, but suffice it to...

Movie Review: The Warriors Way

2011-11-17T21:14:00.001-05:00

I just watched The Warrior’s Way on Netflix while stretching, and was pleasantly surprised. Their plot description didn’t really lead me to think it would be any good. “Fugitive Asian assassin Yang journeys from the Far East to the Wild West, where he holes up in a tiny town in the American badlands. There, he meets local drunk and ex-fighter Ron, as well as a beautiful circus knife thrower with a dark secret.” So you have an “Asian assassin” in the old west? Throw in Kate Bosworth? What...

Todays TDA Tip: Defensive Mastery Sets Up Counters

2011-11-02T22:00:00.000-04:00

Watch Mike Tyson destroy Reggie Gross. Several good lessons here: Tyson makes great use of mixing up body and head shots in a good ratio. It's a maxim in boxing that the body sets up the head, but the inverse is true; good head punching closes and raises the opens up the body. In our case (martial artists), it also opens up the legs for kicks and sweeps. This fight fits the mold of the taller versus smaller fighter well until 4:34. The taller man (Gross) moves well, sliding and...

This Probably Won't Help the "Cause"

2011-11-02T21:46:00.000-04:00

I am just a simple voter, taxpayer, and citizen, but this kind of pisses me off. Every part of these protests against ____ are costing us money every day. They do not file permits, do not pay for the costs of services like extra police presence, and disrupt life for the law-abiding. Any sympathy that I had was gone once they started pissing and masturbating in public, sexually assaulting each other, and, now, destroying private property.

Nice lesson from Master Tan

Check out The Little Dragon Doesn't Dragon Step "The contradiction: form is ultimately an artificial movement designed to teach us to move naturally. The practical technique was never meant to be a literal expression of the form technique but it must express all the hidden fighting principles concealed in the form." I need to see it.

The Knockout Game and How We Should Respond

2011-11-02T06:00:00.000-04:00

Is the “Knockout Game” real? How can we respond? “You don’t know them, so why care about hurting them?” This Gateway Pundit post takes the St. Louis Post-Dispatch to task for equating foreclosures and the opposition to “health care reform” with something called the “knock-out game.” I’ll leave the politics to the Gateway Pundit post, and instead focus on the following: In April an elderly man was attacked by a mob of black youths playing “the knock out game” while walking home from the...

Grip Training for is for Everyone!

Grip is key in combat or sport For combat athletes, the need for a good grip is obvious! Rob at CombatTrainer.com is right about the grip: "Do not allow this small body part to lose a big fight. The hands are not to be taken for granted during training and should be strengthened like any other body part to avoid injury and weakness." If you have ever grappled at all, you know how critical the grip is in being able to defend or secure a hold. So, grip is essential for grappling...
