- The Best Form Of Self Defense
By: Kilian | - When you're out at night with your wife and teenage daughter, driving home after dinner without a care in the world, you would never imagine that the next few minutes could change your life forever. Of course, on most nights, you would reach home safely. But, what if, one night, there was a gang of people waiting to rob you on a lonely stretch of the road?

- Forklift Training Helps Companies Avoid Losing Money
By: Toan Dinh | - Recent on-the-job safety information for Canada as reported by organizations such as the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) contains good news but it also contains some not-so-good news. The good news is that Canadian workplace accidents are on the decrease and have been for the past decade. The not-so-good news is that workplace accidents still annually affect close to a quarter million persons a year. And each injury or death means out-of-pocket money and time for employers.

By: Michael Arnone | - Teens and twenty-somethings eat an endless supply of pizza and tacos and never have to think about the fatty consequences. Unfortunately, this carefree metabolic lifestyle does not last forever, whether it's because of hormonal changes, bad genes, or just getting older, you may be noticing a belly lump creeping over your belt - especially into your 30s and 40s.

- The Importance Of Combat Training
By: Melville Jackson | - Most people who want to become self sufficient in self defense believe that theyre well off if they have had a course in Karate or Tae Kwondo. Valuable though these are, they are not nearly enough in a life-death situation. In a street situation, a fighters mettle is truly tested, when he or she is pitted against the worst, the toughest and the most heinous.
When a person finds themselves in a perilous situation where self defense could mean the difference between li ...

- Is Our World Safe?
By: EmmySue Pryor | - Allen Andrade is the prime murder suspect for the murder of eighteen year old transgender woman named Angie Zapata. After meeting on an online dating site, the two became somewhat close. Whether or not the murder was preplanned is still up for debate, but he apparently beat her to death with his fists and with a fire extinguisher. As the days and months go by, I feel like I cant check my email without getting a notification about some violent crime that happened within the last few hours. ...

- You Will Pay A Price For Not Learning Self Defense
By: Mike McCoy | - It is common for people to weigh the pros and cons of an activity before committing to engaging in it. In other words, most logical people perform some form of a cost-benefit analysis before deciding to invest time and money into a new activity. This rule generally applies when people consider whether or not to learn the art of self defense.
However, although many people have a pretty good understanding of what the benefits may be, they do not fully realize the costs of not le ...

- Ancillary Benefits To Training In The Martial Arts
By: Mike McCoy | - When you think of training in the martial arts, it is likely that you have a preconception about not only what you will learn, but also about the type of people who engage in this type of training. And while some of your preconceived notions may be based at least in part in reality, there is a lot more to gain from training in the martial arts than one would first expect. Of course, the most fundamental reason to study martial arts or close combat training is to become practiced in the art of ...

- Martial Arts Is For Everyone
By: Mike McCoy | - Have you ever given any consideration to training in the martial arts? Chances are that the thought has at least crossed your mind, but you dismissed it because you believe that martial arts training is only for those who intend to fight competitively. It is unfortunate that so many people feel this way because martial art's training is really an activity that anybody can engage in. It is not just something for Hollywood actors and professional fighters. Men and women, young and old can all ...

- You Can Learn The Art Of Self Defense In No Time
By: Mike McCoy | - When you think of martial arts you most likely conjure up images of Bruce Lee, or other Hollywood actors, performing advanced and highly difficult maneuvers. While this is most certainly an aspect of martial arts that is difficult to overlook, there is quite a bit more to martial arts than this. Put even better, there is quite a bit less to martial arts than this. In other words, the showy and technical maneuvers are fun to learn (and even more fun to watch), but it is possible to learn pract ...

- Supporting Employees With Traumatic Brain Injury - Tips For Employers
By: Michael Reardon | - Traumatic Brain Injury. It's one of the signature wounds of the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, and by many accounts, a great deal of returning service members will be coping with the effects of TBI as they transition to civilian life. For employers, that brings up some important questions - among them, what should they expect from employees with TBI, and how can they support them in the workplace?
It's true that veterans - and anyone experiencing the effects of TBI - may fac ...

By: EmmySue Pryor | - In West Virginia earlier today, a slightly injured victim recounted his story to police. Four people (three men and one woman) entered his house, armed with weapons. Luckily, the victim was not hurt more during the armed robbery but it definitely makes you think about what might happen. You could be hanging out at home, minding your own business, and the next thing you know, people you don't know could be in your house. Would it be a good idea to know how to protect yourself, should those p ...

- Street Fighting Could Be An Important Skill To Acquire
By: Mike McCoy | - There are not too many people out there who willingly look for an opportunity to get into a fight. Nevertheless, you never know when having street fighting skills could pay off. This is particularly true in today's day and age where you cannot even turn on the news without seeing a story or two about a mugging, assault, or robbery. So while you may not be the type of person who enjoys aggression, or would ever consider looking for a fight, learning a little about martial arts could be a wonde ...

- Overcoming Fear Is Critical To Self Defense
By: Mike McCoy | - Imagine that you are walking through a dark alley late at night and you are approached by an angry man. He demands your money and your ring and says he will hurt you unless you consent to his demands. If you are like most Americans, it is likely that the primary emotion which this summons is fear. And as you probably know, it is difficult to operate when in a state of fear. The likely outcome to this scenario is not pleasant -- you could give up your possessions and hope that the man leaves ...

By: Mike Jake | - Im nearly sick to death of hearing it, but matter where you go when you bring up the fact youre a real estate investor who flips properties, someone says thats illegal!
1st part of the problem I think is we investors have our own lingo we use that means something to us, yet may imply something entirely different to an outsider.

- Unarmed Self Defense- Fact Or Fantasy?
By: Mike McCoy | - Many people have the deep misunderstanding about martial arts that it is only used by violent individuals. However, martial arts are not intended to be practiced in street fighting and the likes thereof. Rather, martial arts are categorized as such because they are in fact an art. And like other arts, martial arts can and should be used skillfully and appropriately. When looked at in this light, it should be apparent that martial arts can be learned by anybody who has an interest not in viol ...

- Learning Self Defense Starts In Your Head
By: Mike McCoy | - It seems that you can't turn on the news these days without seeing at least one story about an innocent victim who was robbed, bullied, or beaten by one or more aggressor. To think that you are immune to this type of treatment is naive if not foolish. The fact is that nobody is immune to the ill behavior of others. Quite to the contrary, we never know when we will be susceptible to the attacks of violent individuals. It is in these instances that understanding the basics of self defense is a ...

- Murderer Walking The Streets
By: EmmySue Pryor | - A forty four year old man named Kenneth West is on trial, facing twenty five years to life for two murders that were committed years ago. In the early 1980s, when he was nineteen, he allegedly raped a fifty three year old grandmother and then strangled her to death with her dog's leash. She was found, beaten and bruised, in her apartment that was right above the shop where West worked at the time, but no clues from the scene were linked to him. So he stayed free. Three years later, a twenty ...

By: Steve Hochman | - I know we never quite understand the value of hormones until they are out of balance. There are some hormones that exist silently in our bodies and do not make a big exit causing us to be aware of their absence or imbalance. Perhaps one of the most useful hormones that we do not always notice missing when it is gone is the human growth hormone known as HGH.
When we are children, HGH levels are strongest. HGH causes us to grow taller and develop into our adult bodies. After we rea ...

By: EmmySue Pryor | - The National Association of Chiefs of Police sent out a survey to twenty one thousand sheriffs and police chiefs across the country. This question was asked: "Do you believe any law-abiding citizen should be able to purchase a firearm for sport or self-defense?" In response to that question, ninety-three percent of officers responded positively, agreeing with the Second Amendment that the people should have the right to own and bear arms.

- Charlie Nelson And His Little Red Book Of Self Defense
By: Matthew McKernan | - Today it seems like there's a martial arts school on every block and many of them are of dubious quality. Most of the students are children, and they're taught some form of combat sport. Some schools offer self defense training or promise a good workout, but few teach real combat martial arts. There was a time though when people did learn the practical skills they needed to survive a real street fight. Among the few instructors who truly understood combat martial arts and self defense was Charli ...

By: Jayden Adams | - Front Sight Firearms Training Institute is the nation's largest gun training school. Front Sight trains more students annually than all other major shooting schools in the nation combined. With a pedigree like that, it is obvious why Front Sight should be such a strong advocate for Second Amendment rights.

- Several Facts About Karate
By: Alex Olson | - Contrary to popular opinion, the martial art Karate was not invented in China. Rather, it has its origins in the island of Okinawa in Japan. The word "Karate" means the "empty hand" or the "Chinese hand", and it has been given this name because it involves a rapid use of hands and legs in an extreme close combat.
It was sometime in the sixteenth century that Chinese Kung Fu fighters experimented around with their styles and formulated the "te" technique ("Te" means hand). The art ...

They were organized, well equipped, well trained, and had the attitude that they deserved to win. Rome did not collapse because of its fighting men, but because of corruption and the lack of strength of its policy makers. The Romans understood the warrior principles of always taking ground, and to never to stop fightin ...

Sadly, the Marines, like so many military organizations, have fallen prey to political correctness in modern times.

When three thugs boarded a tourist bus in the Costa Rican city of Limon armed with a gun and knives they must have thought the twelve senior citizens onboard were easy prey. They were dead wrong.
