His movement is excellent and when he covers for Guro I. in his absence it is always a pleasure. I'm delighted to see that he is starting to do some seminars.

This will help the tissue not to get damaged and it seems to keep the problem from spreading so the swelling doesn't get nearly as bad as it would otherwise. I am not a doctor nor do I play one on martial arts lists. ------------------------------ From: TaoArt@aol.com Date: Fri, 10 Mar 2000 15:25:59 EST Subject: eskrima: OT: The Karmapa For those interested, here is a detailed story of the Karmapa's escape from China. It may not exactly be on-topic, but it is worth the read for such an historical event. http://abcnews.go.com/sections/world/DailyNews/karmapa000309.html#graphic I am hopeful that he may decide to travel the world and lecture like the Dalai Lama, who I had the distinct pleasure of seeing in person just over 10 years ago. I must say that it warms my heart to see the Karmapa in a place that will only support and encourage his growth.

This was posted on Pekiti-Tirsia Digest and was so weird that I just had to send it to ED as well. Tuhon Bill McGrath "I've always heard knife injuries can go nearly unnoticed. Icepick wounds in the kidneys can feel like a mosquito at first. Survival can sometimes depend on your state of mind, but you must be aware and calm rather than just oblivious. Read this one". Leslie Buck Jr. DARBY, Pa. (Reuters) - A Pennsylvania woman spent the better part of an hour shopping at a neighborhood grocery store without realizing that a passerby had stuck a knife into her neck, police said on Saturday. Darlene Jones, 62, set out from home on foot before 7 a.m. (1200 GMT) on Friday, when a running passerby slapped her on the back of the neck -- or so she thought. She kept on going, as if nothing had happened. Jones walked to the Acme supermarket in the nearby community of Yeadon, just outside Philadelphia, and bought a package of Oreo cookies and a newspaper before making the half-mile (1-km) return journey to her house. Only after she got home did her daughter notice the handle of a kitchen knife sticking out of her mother's neck. The daughter yanked out the blade, releasing a gush of blood, and quickly got her to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, where she was listed in fair condition on Saturday. "Five or six people walked right past her without even noticing," Darby Police Chief Robert Smythe told the Philadelphia Inquirer, while describing the incident as a "random, vicious attack." Supermarket surveillance cameras later showed the woman strolling through the aisles of the store, past clerks and customers, with the knife handle clearly visible. Jones could not give police a description of her assailant, saying she did not even notice if it was a man or a woman. ------------------------------ From: Ray Terry Date: Fri, 10 Mar 2000 15:48:09 -0800 (PST) Subject: [none] ------------------------------ End of Inayan_Eskrima/FMA-Digest V7 #123 **************************************** To unsubscribe from the eskrima-digest send the command: unsubscribe eskrima-digest -or- unsubscribe eskrima-digest your.old@address in the BODY of an email (top line, left justified) addressed to majordomo@hpwsrt.cup.hp.com.
