Public Intelligence is an international, collaborative research project aimed at aggregating the collective work of independent researchers around the globe who wish to defend the public’s right to access information. We operate upon a single maxim: equal access to information is a human right. We believe that limits to the average citizen’s ability to access information have created information asymmetries which threaten to destabilize democratic rule around the world. Through the control of information, governments, religions, corporations, and a select group of individuals have been able to manipulate public perception into accepting coercive agendas which are ultimately designed to limit the sovereignty and freedom of populations worldwide.

The Super Fight (1969) Muhammad Ali v.s. Rocky Marciano. This is an oddity, a fictional match edited together from about 70+ rounds of sparring, to match a "script" written by an NCR 315 computer simulating if both men met in their prime. Notice Ali messing with Rocky's toupee, and the real shot he eats for it, lol! Ali said his arms were sore for days afterwards from blocking Rocky's monster punches. (youtube.com)

Part 2 of Aaron Banks' "Secret Oriental World of Self Defense". Hey, Bill Louie from "Fist of Fear, Touch Of Death". Banks and Louie were also together in the American introduction to Sonny Chiba's "The Bodyguard". You know, the one Tarantino stole the Pulp Fiction "Ezekial" speech from. They were just kind of edited in, comparing Sonny Chiba's style to Bruce Lee's. (youtube.com)

Old VHS tape of highlights from Aaron Banks' "Secret Oriental World of Self Defense", from 1967 to 1982, part one. Includes some footage of Chuck Norris competing! Also man v.s. woman match, and the late, great Lily Rodriguez kickboxing. A real piece of American martial arts history here, despite some elements who would have you believe history began with the U.F.C... (youtube.com)

Also takedowns against punches and kicks, not a lot of people know he's a wrestling coach, Benny Urquidez was training with him for the match against Royce Gracie that never happened. (youtube.com)

Well, Little Willie can put that in his pipe and smoke it. I still haven't forgotten the Falls River bunch trying to sue some kid for uploading a video of himself performing Kata Dante, or them trying to sue the guy making the Count Dante documentary. For having done very little to promote the style, works or legacy of The Count over the decades, they sure hate the idea of anyone else doing so. Health spa, pff.
Japanese Katana VS European Longsword - Samurai sword VS Knight Broadsword by jaylink to /forum/kenjutsu

Depends if they're wearing armour, IMO. Armoured, I'll take the broadsword, unarmoured, the Katana.
Unarmoured, given my druthers I'd choose a rapier.

I guess the chain attached to the top of the kama is so he can wield it with one hand instead of whipping the chain from the other hand. I'd be leery of the blade getting in the way of the chain, but it seems to work for him. At any rate, I don't see him winning a tug of war over the other guy's sword, his one hand holding the grip longwise against the swordsman's both hands crosswise. The other guy should have thrown the short sword like Musashi, lol.
