The Sword Museum is run by Harunaka Hoshino I believe it used to be down by Fisherman's Warf but I am not that familiar with the bay area. He also may have moved to a bigger place. That was done in many chinese arts to hide techniques. This way when your learning to apply the technique you...

photoshop has watermarks as a feature and I have a friend who know how to create the watermarks. I will try to have him make a coffee stain or water stain type mark for you if you want. Darius P.S. Awesome map ...

;) Pazu ....facinating ( I say in my best Spock voice) Onward and upward..... I did some checking today when i got home and began to practice some Aikido. After some practice I realized that Aikido is purely defensive. This intrigued me and I looked in the books I have on Aikido and here is...

Thanks for posting your backround Pazu. Do you like Karate the same or differnetly from Kung Fu? SF is a real hotbead of Martial Arts. I really want to visit a number of schools there again. Things like the Sword Museum would be fun as well as I have never seen an 800yr old sword before...

:eek:;) :) :D

I will post a study that is written up in the Martial Arts Journal if you would like me to. Darius

Cyragnome, Ummmm there actually is no corelation at all. One has nothing to do with the other actually...thanks for making my point. He fell into that one well I thought. Hence my statement: "This is unimportant to this dicussion anyway. You have tried to steer this dicussion to things that...

Dragonslayer was ok but I never really enjoyed it as much as my friends did. Excalibur rocked...I liked that movie up to the point the went looking for the Grail. Merlin was awesome.

Drakmar, Could you elaborate more on the inner feelings of peace that the Martial Arts gives you? I think that might help some to uderstand better a number of points. I know I feel calm and relaxed after a good work out be it Martial or weight training (when I used to do Weight training)...

Hehehehe Man I love this game. Car wars is a cross between Madmax and Death Race 2000. We used to love to run the scenarios in Studyhall in High school and the most run scenaios were two cars on an open road going at each other with guns blazing. Of course there were many pedestrians...

Drakmar ...Well met . Good post.

Did I ever say the mystical practices of the martial traditions were embraced by western science?? I do not believe I did. I also did not subtly suggest this either. I did however state that ideas of anatomy and the way the body works are being embraced as truth in a cultural exchange between...

:D :D :D :D :) :D :D :D Look at the current job market and ask some people looking for work now. You will see that what I wrote is my experience but it is not a unique one. Neither website was enlightening at all....good try though. You left this alone?? I am shocked. Why dodge the real...

Gollum is worth a nod of some kind did he get any nods for CGI animation or anything at all? That was the best use of CGI ever....

I believe he was using it as "in a witness to", as a verb. But then I am not a english teacher. Just for clarification...these are the definitions of the words he used lol . They speak for themselves. Moderator if you feel this is inflamitory in any way please feel free to delete it. I did...

I tend not to have the bulk of my printing done in color. I have a color printer (very high quality) at work so I use that to print the front and back and any maps that are in color. Then I get the rest printed and bound at my local copy shop. I can print a 128 page manual for about $5-8 this...

Thanks for posting ....very intersting points Pazu. Darius :D

A technique can still work even though you have not yet mastered it. Mastering a technique to me means you no longer need to think about the technique it just happens. Mastering a technique means that technique will always work when executed. A master can excecute their technique and it looks...

Call around ....ask questions. Unless your in the printing industry you won't know what they mean when they talk about printing techniques/machines and it can get confusing. :D

What I want to know is ...with the seriousness of the first one at least some of it anyway. Why did they make this one to seem more of a spoof? I liked the easter eggs. I liked the fighting in it as I know Jackie loved Chaplin and the Keystone Cops, but the villan was considerably less...
