Hi all- Hey if you get an email- (I sent them too after having been warned and gotten worried-) that you have a virus- called jdbgmgr.exe don't delete the file- thing is a hoax. If you have apparently unless you are a java developer or something- you don't need to worry- but I have info regarding th...

Hey V- I have an awesome book on Chinese herbal medicine- I'll look to see what it says about migraines etc. I used to get them- the kind where you see the "visions" Mr. Darrow spoke of- (I thought they were blood vessels popping behind my eyes- causing the effect of blind spots that look ...

Tom- are you in any of these pics? I thought I saw Folta Sensei in one- but it is from behind.... Whom else is in the pictures? Dana? Mr. G? Just would like to put a face to a name- you all have seen my scarry pointed chin- on the back of my book! LOL (Dana- yours in on the way!) : ) (chin thing is ...

The book I was referring to is "Fit for Life" and mostly talks about what to eat, and when to eat it to get the best use out of it. Like The author- says that eating fruit - as much as you want, until noon, only fruit, just until noon, will best bennefit your body because of what it's doin...

I bruise easy too- do check into that- get blood tested just in case something else is happening- re: the bruising- a really good way I've found to work through the bruise once it's there- grab some tiger balm- put a bit on the bruise (if it's not cut open too) and rub as hard as you can- then a lit...

Hi chef/Vicki- Awesome book re all this is called "Fit for Life" old- but I can find the author for you if you'd like. Also- as people get older your metabolism completely changes and half the time you don't even realize it- Uechi training has helped me take off 30 pounds- reletively quick...

These people are ones to admire and learn from absolutely. They express what is also in my own heart as well, for I too am preparing. Makes me think that maybe this question should be posed durring training well. (or one like it) Like at green-belt. (sorry I can't remember the name of this kyu rank)...

Wow- Sat here reading the responses nodding my head- "yeah I can see that!" reading each one. And, Susan and I have something in common! I told Steve not to expect me to "bow" to him at home either! LOL. For us- I stepped in long after he'd been established as a Sensei. We were a...

Vicki;

Thank you! That's exactly what I needed! I will check myself for those positionings.

THANKS!

Hi Gene! To address your question, "how"? How did they torture people? Although I'm surprised by the question- I figure that shooting at anyone any time including children- is in itself torturing people. They were not quick and painless deaths either. For the person shot or their families....

I absolutely agree, not just on a physical level, but within the mind and spiritual level as well. As your physical body learns the katas etc. the inner healing that comes along with the re-newed confidense levels, etc. are just as important if not more so- since very few of us will actually ever be...

Oh yes! Mr. Durkin! My husband worked with him for quite a while. http://xpres.net/~gmattson/ubbs/frown.gif He was also too busy to read my book. http://xpres.net/~gmattson/ubbs/frown.gif But I recognize his name that's for sure! I've seen tapes of demonstrations from some years ago with he and he w...

Ahh yes; that excess: I've been able to work off 30 of that excess, and have found that it has lessoned some of the back pain, though I also experienced it at 108 lbs. Which is why I thought "over tucking" possibly to contribute. Is that possible, I wonder... I will check out the name glad...

Hi-

Question: how many of the Sensei's out there have spouses training in their dojo? It seems like there aren't too many "teams" like that.

Well, I thought that maybe I had/have been tucking my hips to far forward. When I took singing lessons a wicked long time ago- I was "taught" how to stand for proper breathing- right- one of the things my teacher mentioned was that women tend to stick their butt out when they stand- most u...
