 | | Wing Chun - superior blocking - 191 sec
This took place at windy city's wing chun 5th annual seminar. I take no credit at all, as my Sifu just showed some superior blocking skills. If you know what to look for you can see tons of different concepts being applied. The 1st thing to notice is that a skilled practioner really just blocks the majority of the time, the unskilled, tries to cover that up by simply blizting the attack. Its very common in the wing chun world for many to do that.
Also, what how blocks come about, its not done by the hand but by the body. You can visually see this since sifu's center stays consistent throughout, and simply turns in conjunction with the amount of force, while the hands don't chase out which is a common no no in wing chun. Let the attacks come to your house, and the closer they are the safer it is for you. All to often, people will shoot out their hands trying to reach out to block.
Blocking is a simple concept but difficult to do, know the person's centerline, have your triangle constantly point to that indivudals center line, and go with the force. While there are many more concepts involved these are the general three which one must follow to develop superior blocking skills.
Finally in some glimpses you see freezing out motions, where you can literally lock out your opponents motions, by simply holding your structure and techincally freezing his hand motion. All to often wing chun is confused with the concept of sticky hands. Sticky hands is not about sticking to people, its making people stick to you. Out in the street, people will not do sticky hands in a real fight, what your developing is the ability so that people will stick to your hands. In a simple concept imagine your hands as blades, if you position your blades in the right angle, whatever touches it will cut into it, thus forcing that individual to stick.
Anyway, if you want to get good in wing chun, practice blocking more then attacking. If you can block anything thrown at you, you can then attack at will.

Haunting French horn calls, the soothing sounds of water, a thundering storm, and flowing interpretive dance using rocks, sand, and other items found along the Lake Superior shoreline are all part of the "Concert for Lake Superior: People, Place, Purpose."
During the press conference, two percussionists demonstrated their skills using Lake Superior water and rocks to make chilling and rhythmic music that mixed with the sound of small waves rolling ashore.
An interpretive dancer gracefully performed on the edge of Lake Superior with the wind rushing through her flowing costume and seed pods on her ankles adding to the soothing natural music.
With a view of Lake Superior, the Marquette, Michigan concert will have a water and environment theme. The audience will be surrounded by Lake Superior-related artwork
The event is sponsored by the Superior Watershed Partnership and Cedar Tree Institute, Marquette-based non-profits that founded the Earth Keeper Initiative in 2004.
The Marquette Community Foundation awarded a $1,500 grant for the concert.
"We wanted to help the numerous groups who are protecting Lake Superior and keeping it as beautiful as it is," Martha Conley, Marquette Community Foundation board member and chair of the foundation's grants committee. "We are a true believer in the community and Lake Superior."
Organizers hope the event will inspire future Lake Superior Day concerts in other cities encircling the lake like the Baltic Sea Festival.
Musicians and environment groups in Wisconsin, Minnesota and Canada are being encouraged to create similar benefits around Lake Superior creating a ring of protection.
Organizers are offering a "limited number of travel stipends" to qualified Canadian group that want to attend the Michigan concert to get ideas and inspiration. A group in Thunder Bay, Ontario has expressed interest in creating their own annual concert.
The concert is free, but donations are encouraged with all proceeds used for environment projects involving the immense Lake Superior watershed.
"By offering this free concert we also hope that people will contribute to the Lake Superior Fund so we can continue and expand our successful Great Lakes protection programs," said Carl Lindquist, executive director of the Superior Watershed Partnership.
All donations are tax deductible and go to the Lake Superior Defense Fund.
The concert will begin at 7 p.m. on July 15, 2007 at UpFront & Company, a Marquette restaurant with a large banquet room that overlooks the city's lower harbor on Lake Superior. The event is preceded by a 6 p.m. social hour.
"The concert is also a way to show that we all have an important role in protecting Lake Superior," Lindquist said.
In 2004, the Lake Superior Binational Forum designated the third Sunday in July as Lake Superior Day in the US and Canada.
The binational forum is comprised of U.S. and Canadian volunteers including representatives from industry, civic organizations, environment groups and faith communities, and works with governments in both countries to protect Lake Superior.
The Lake Superior watershed "is pretty much half of the watershed for the entire Upper Peninsula" and one of three watersheds in northern Michigan, said Natasha Koss, development coordinator for the Superior Watershed Partnership.
Koss said the watershed partnership cares about "the big picture, what we can do as an organization and people can do as citizens to protect our beautiful lake."
"We all live in it (the Lake Superior watershed), we all drink from its waters, we all swim in its water, we paddle along the shore, we fish in its rivers that drain into Lake Superior," Koss said "So it's all connected and everything we do on the land effects the water of Lake Superior."
Master of ceremonies for the concert is Marquette television personality and meteorologist Karl Bohnak (WLUC-TV). The orchestra is comprised of 19 professional musicians from around the country with ties to the Lake Superior region, and one is from Washington D.C.
"This concert will be a chance to lift up a vision of a good place and a clean lake - a symbol to the world of water and life," said Rev. Jon Magnuson, executive director of the Cedar Tree Institute and co-founder of the Earth Keeper Initiative.
"This evening will be about a beacon of hope - a shout of thanksgiving and invitation to continue a struggle to protect and defend one of the world's greatest natural resources," Rev. Magnuson said.
Lake Superior is the deepest (1,333 feet) and coldest of the Great Lakes, its shoreline stretches 2,726 miles (including islands) and is fed by over 200 rivers.
The orchestra was named Boreal because the word means "pertaining to, or located in, northern regions" as in "aurora borealis" - and Boreas is the Greek god of the north wind.
The concept was inspired by the Baltic Sea Festival which partners classical musicians with environmental causes.
Conductor Craig Randal Johnson of Minneapolis, Minnesota and members of the orchestra want to bring awareness to ecological issues.
Johnson remembers the exact minute the Lake Superior concert idea was born: at 1:27 p.m. on September 14, 2006.
"It was one of those moments when you realize things are suddenly different, said Johnson, who has onducted concerts in Italy, was staff conductor with the Florida Symphony and worked in three German opera houses.
Johnson described that instant as a "seed change" and a real "switch over in my thinking."
At a Marquette café, Johnson and a friend were discussing "cultural offerings and the state of music in the U.P." and the annual Baltic Sea Festival.
'We wanted to see how the Baltic Sea project could translate to a similar initiative in the Great Lakes," said Johnson. "We very quickly narrowed it down to Lake Superior."
Nature and the environment is an "underlining motivating factor for all the music I do," Johnson said.
Johnson hopes the concert will "educate the public about the environment and environmental issues and sensibilities."
"The convergence of the environment and concerns of the environment are so paramount to us as human beings," said Johnson, who has a long list of orchestras he has conducted, including music director of the 2005 Finn Grand Fest symphony concert in Marquette, the upcoming July 27 Finnfest concert in Ashtabula, Ohio, the Marquette Symphony, and as an instrumental performer at Finnfest 1996.
"We want to harness the power of music and art to wake people up," he said. "This concert is important"
"I hope that whatever they (the audience) have experienced from the music in an emotional or metaphysical sense also is converging with a feeling of a need to do something to support the health of Lake Superior and the surrounding ecosystem," Johnson said.
Johnson hopes concert goers will "donate because you've experienced this powerful music and a unique and potentially spiritual event."
"In 2006 Earth Keepers received the highest Great Lakes protection award from the U.S. EPA and Canada," Lindquist said. "The concert for Lake Superior is our way of saying thank you to the thousands of citizens who help us protect this truly great lake."
The classical concert will reach many extremes including traditional works from Mozart and Handel, a "religious spiritual" piece, and interpretive dance to the music of Finnish composer Kari Tikka and Estonian composer Arvo Part.
Iron County native Evan Premo has been commissioned to create a new work for the concert.
Premo's composition "Fall Storm on Lake Superior" was inspired by a chapter in Lon Emerick's book "The Superior Peninsula - Seasons in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan."
The chapter is called "Fall Storms on Lake Superior."
"I try to evoke the power of the lake in my music like Lon did in this chapter," said Premo, who began writing the composition in April.
"The chapter starts with Lon waking up in his home in Skandia on a fall day and hearing the low rumble of the lake. He then drives to Presque Isle where he takes awe at the mighty waves crashing over the breakwater."
Emerick's book remembers shipwrecks during fall storms like the Edmund Fitzgerald.
Percussionists Carrie Biolo and James A. Strain and dancer Maria Formolo are premiering a performance named "Elements" that uses "rock, sand and driftwood" from Lake Superior.
"I'm sure all of us have gone to the lake shore and experienced an amazing storm over Lake Superior where thunder is crashing and lightning is seen across the sky line," said Biolo.
The performers will recreate a Lake Superior storm by using "a thunder sheet," and the wind will be created by a "spinning corrugate tube and bull roar" and a "plethora of traditional percussion instruments."
"A bowed Chinese cymbal hauntingly reminds me of the men who gave their life to Lake Superior," Biolo said.
Formolo will "dance in an stunning costume draped in drift wood simultaneously producing an aural and visual sensation," Biolo said.
"Lake Superior rocks will be rhythmically hit together, sand will be poured and water will be played," Biolo said.
"Lake Superior rocks will be rhythmically hit together, sand will be poured and water will be played," Biolo said. "A melody of sorts will be produced on crystal goblets filled with various water levels and a large tub filled with water will be 'blooped' and splashed in a rhythmic ostinato."
Biolo will perform Frederick Rzewski's To The Earth (1985).
She will recite a Homeric hymn "praising Mother Earth" and at the same time will be "tapping four pitched clay flower pots with knitting needles."
"Very apropos to Lake Superior -- who nourishes everything around us," Biolo said. " If we take care of the earth, she will give us a happy abundant life."
The concert will include Marjory Black and Gary Reeves on French horns. The moving French horns will answer each other with calls resembling foghorns and wildlife.
The event includes an art exhibit by regional nature artists and Great Lakes authors. Displays will offer educational materials and opportunities for people to participate in regional environment stewardship initiatives.
The program includes: Evan Premo, Fall Storm On Lake Superior - a world premiere commission for this Concert; Frederic Rzewski, To the Earth; Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Symphony No. 29 in A, K. 201; Verne Reynolds, Calls for two French Horns; Carrie Biolo, James A. Strain and Maria Formolo, "Elements"; composer/pianist Carl Lindquist, Lake Superior Suite; Kari Tikka, 'Exsultate'!; Arvo Pärt, 'Fratres'; Georg Fredrich Händel, selections from Water Music.
The Superior Watershed Partnership and the Cedar Tree Institute organize annual Earth Keeper Clean Sweeps that broke EPA household hazardous waste collection records.
The annual Earth Day collection across northern Michigan has recycled or properly disposed about 470 tons of household hazardous waste including pharmaceuticals, old/broken computers and cell phones, poisons, lead-based paint, mercury, and vehicle batteries.
The Superior Watershed Partnership and the Cedar Tree Institute have collaborated on numerous environmental projects over the last decade including but not limited to stream restoration, controlling invasive species, restoring native plant species, storm water management, dune restoration, Great Lakes monitoring, wild rice restoration, erosion control and energy conservation.
Partners in those projects include Marquette County Juvenile Court, the Keweenaw Bay Indian Community, 140 churches/temples.
The bishops/leaders of nine faith traditions (Catholic, Episcopal, Lutheran, Presbyterian, United Methodist Church, Unitarian Universalist, Baha'i, Jewish, and Zen Buddhist) signed the Earth Keeper Covenant in 2004 pledging to actively protect the environment and reach out to American Indian tribes.

| | La Vida es Bella: "Una raza superior" Doblaje de España - 270 sec
El doblaje es el de España, a quien no le guste el acento que se busque otro video, paso de contestar a los comentarios y mensajes desagradables de personas que no tienen otra cosa que hacer que criticar un acento que no es el suyo (y que por sus comentarios demuestran que no conocen demasiado) y echar la culpa a los demás de que no les guste su sonoridad, de que no entiendan el español de España etc. Aquí la cuestión es echar la culpa a los demás ¿Alguien se ha planteado qué quizás no entiende el doblaje porque no está acostumbrado al español de España y NO porque el doblaje sea malo? No sé, a lo mejor es una posibilidad a considerar... Cuando no critican el acento, se dedican a llamarme de todo por mensajes por subir videos en doblaje español y no en hispanoamericano (el hecho en México)... Subo los videos de los DVDs que tengo.
Una cosa es expresar tu opinión y otra insultar, y desgraciadamente ya he tenido varios comentarios donde no solo se apreciaba que no les gustaba el doblaje, sino lo español en general. Pues muy bien, "señores tolerantes", busquen otro video, suban ustedes mismos el video en el doblaje que más les guste pero no hace falta insultar. Es normal preferir tu propio acento, pero no por ello hay que menospreciar el de los demás. Y lo dice alguien que prefiere la versión original con subtítulos, pero me revienta que vengan aquí a poner verde al doblaje español sin tener ni idea...

Lake Superior Day benefit concert in northern Michigan debuts Boreal Chamber Symphony; organizers hope similar concerts will be formed in U.S., Canadian cities that surround Lake Superior

| | Lake Superior Day 2008 is July 20: Plan your event today - 500 sec
Plan your Lake Superior Day event for July 20, 2008 celebrate world's largest, cleanest freshwater lake
There's nothing like the crystal clear waters of Lake Superior in the summertime.
Lake Superior Day 2008 is right around the corner. Make your plans now to celebrate Lake Superior. The world's largest, cleanest freshwater lake will be honored on July 20, 2008
The Chippewa Indian translation, Gichigami, signifies Great Water. According to Native American Ojibwa lore, it is protected by Nanabijou, Spirit of the Deep Sea Water.
If you can't come up with an idea on how to celebrate Lake Superior - we can help.
Organizers have ideas for anglers, boaters, local governments, American Indian tribes, faith communities, environmental groups, libraries & small/large business. For example, beach cleans ups have been held by the Zen Buddist and other faith communities in northern Michigan. Sitting on the shores of Lake Superior in Marquette, two interfaith organizers reflect on the importance of this superior lake. Individuals, families, churches, kids, communities, clubs, businesses and industries hold events that celebrate Lake Superior Day, held annually on the third Sunday in July. Do something that symbolizes your connection to the lake on July 20. Become part of celebrations that will encircle Lake Superior. Lake Superior Day started in the early 1990s to show how it's vital to the environment & economy. The Lake Superior Binational Forum (LSBF) promotes this basin-wide event. Many events have been held to educate/entertain people about lake issues, special places, & recreational opportunities.
You're invited to hold activities/events that celebrate this world-class lake. The lake 's surface covers 31,700 square miles, about the size of South Carolina. The lake is so big it could hold all the water from the other four Great Lakes, plus three more lakes the size of Lake Erie.
In 1985, scientists using a submersible vessel descended for the first time to the deepest part, near the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. Lake Superior 's deepest point is 1,332 feet, which would almost cover the Sears Tower in Chicago. The lake stretches approx. 350 miles from west to east, & 160 miles north to south. If you could travel the entire Lake Superior shoreline, you 'd go 1,826 miles, the distance from Duluth to San Francisco.
This year's theme "Let's Go Fly a Kite" symbolizes clean energy sources.

Last year almost 45 groups/communities held special events like dragon boat races, beach clean ups, musical concerts, library displays, church services, and signed proclamations..
On Lake Superior Day 2007, classical musicians from around the Great Lakes debuted the Boreal Chamber Symphony in Marquette, MI sponsored by the Upper Peninsula Earth Keepers.
