Visit from Philadelphia Branch

Wednesday, 28 May 2008

Recently Sifu Joe McSorley came to visit us with five of his students in order to further their skills. Joe had originally started his training in Philadelphia in 1972 with Master Mark, and continues to practice and teach. During the visit, the group worked hard to refine their skills, focusing primarily on feeling and timing exercises. Back in Philadelphia, Joe and his students train with greater emphasis on practical application of techniques, so it was a good chance to compare perspectives.

Regarding the practicality of this style, John, a student and instructor under Sifu McSorley stated: "There's alot of good fighters in Philly, so you can't fake it."

As always, it was an inspiration to see people that train hard and strive to uphold the integrity of this great tradition. We look forward to more visits and seminars with Joe and his students in the future.

For more information, click "schools" the main menu, or click here to see the meetup.com group page.

	It was a pleasure meeting our family at the Minnesota branch and finally getting to meet and receive instruction from Gin Foon Mark Sifu. Everyone was very helpful--reunions like these ensure the future of Jook Lum as relationships are developed and a trading of ideas and skills strengthen us practitioners wherever we may be.

	Well said Phil. I must say that I was quite impressed by the dedication and cohesiveness of the whole group. My only regret is that we didn't have more time. I look forward to next reunion.

Last time I saw you and Paula was back in 82 I think its great seeing all the progress and changes that have been made over the years.

Halfway through the year SPIN tipped their hand by offering the 20 Greatest Albums Of 2009 ... So Far. If you remember, the list

wasn't in any specific order. Their 40 Best ugg boots store Albums Of 2009 are, and

it's interesting to see all the titles that popped up after the last one was published. As well as the albums that missed the cut after

Cheap watches
they were spun a bit more: Peter Bjorn And John, Blk Jks, Regina Spektor, Glasvegas, Mavado, and Sa-Ra Creative Partners are

nowhere to be found. The list -- one of oh so many lists -- is also refreshingly interesting in and of itself, a fine example of a

publication stepping outside of the hive mentality and coming up with something that feels personal. Even if I don't personally agree

with a lot of it.

I've often postulated that many boxers are on HGH. To my knowledge,
running shoes not even a single blood test can detect HGH, but a series of blood tests administered over many weeks to detect the fluctuations causes by high doses of the stuff. Some folks have pituitary issues that can cause false positives. I spoke with a neurologist in depth on this subject, and he postulates that anywhere from 1 in 10 to 1 in 4 people have some kind of undetected tumor on their pituitary gland. Since that glad is the master control for all your glandsugg outlet, a person can have some really weird hormonal balances, not just hgh, but ANY hormone. So it's all a sticky wicket in that HGH testing isn't a test to detect cheaters that same way polygraphs don't detect lies.

"Love is not a thing to understand.
Love is not a thing to feel.
Love is not a thing to give and receive.
Love is a thing only to become
And eternally be. ."

What keeps us alive, what allows us to endure?

I think it is the hope of loving,
or being Ugg Boots loved.

I heard a fable once about the sun going on a journey
to find its source, and how the moon wept
without her lover’s
warm gaze.

We weep when light does not reach our hearts. We wither
like Uggs Outlet fields if someone close
does not rain their
kindness
upon
us.--------------------《The Hope of Loving》
