We're going to China! Get on board for Bill and Jason's excellent adventure with the granddaddy of martial arts!
- An exciting new series explores the origins and teachings of the world's martial arts.
- Our hosts journey through China to absorb millennia of fighting tradition.
- Jason and Bill have only a week to learn enough not to get killed.
Despite its emphasis on hand-to-hand combat, in many ways martial arts are about how not to fight. This is one of the first lessons hosts and seasoned fighters Jason Chambers and Bill Duff learn on their globe-spanning quest to discover the traditions and techniques of the world's fighting styles. Learn with them as they seek out Masters of ancient and modern disciplines in the lands where they were created. Discover the cultures that gave rise to distinct martial arts. Witness as Jason and Bill challenge a champion - a true HUMAN WEAPON - after only a week of instruction!
Kung Fu is one of the oldest and most famous hand-to-hand fighting techniques in the world. For many it is synonymous with martial arts. It has a tradition stretching back thousands of years to Ancient China and a compelling presence, through movies and other media, in modern culture.
Now Bill and Jason are traveling throughout China to immerse themselves in this rich history, to pick up some moves, and to try not to get their heads knocked off.
From Beijing to the Great Wall, our hosts will travel this vast country learning techniques from some of the greatest living masters. After practicing flying kicks fifteen feet in the air at a kung fu film studio and learning the brutal moves of the Chinese police, our hosts will arrive at one of the most sacred sites in all martial arts to witness the awesome feats of the Shaolin fighting monks.
And then it's "put-up-or-shut-up" as somebody goes nose-to-nose with a true kung fu champion.

"Going through a divorce let alone a high conflict divorce, can be more than overwhelming at times. Before I found Abrams Law Firm, I had been to two other law firms, and was making no progress, and feeling extremely stressed. Then a friend referred me to Vincent Mayo at Abrams Law Firm. I went to a consultation that week and was so relieved and impressed at all of questions and solutions I was getting just from the initial consultation. I ended up signing with the Firm that very day and my entire case took a turn for the best! I started to feel immediate relief and validation from all of their hard work on my case and most importantly their knowledge of what needs to be done specifically in each different situation. Once my case was in Abram's Law Firm's hands, I didn't have to constantly worry or stress, because I knew someone was fighting hard for me and my children! Finding the right Law Firm for a divorce is crucial and I am so grateful for finding this firm! And I know my children are grateful as well."
- Anne J.
"What impressed me in my interaction with Robert Cerceo and The Abrams Law Firm was not only the clarity, thoroughness, and competence which they approached my case, but also how they balanced looking legally for my long term best interest, while adapting to the changing situation and my personal preferences. We worked as a team."

text: 3 Good first series, the second should be even betterDarkstar | 10/06/2008 | See all Darkstar's reviews (87)Top 100 Reviewer Top 100 DVD Reviewer Top 100 Games Reviewer Top 100 Music Reviewer I watched the first episode and whilst I wasn't sure initially about the acting and special effects (probably because I'm so used to the films), the story itself was very interesting and I liked how it was unfolding. After the second episode I was hooked. The episodes are well written and offer more information as to the history of skynet, old and new characters and this all links in nicely to The Terminator 1 and 2.I have always been a bit dubious about films that have been made into series as, expect for one or two (most notably Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Stargate), they have mostly been awful. You only have to look at the Blade or Robocop series to see what I mean. When I saw an advert for Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, although it looked quite interesting, I was again worried. Fortunately it delivers enough in every department to keep you interested.Credit has to be given to the main cast as they are well suited to the characters they play, Summer Glau in particular is very enjoyable to watch playing the sexy terminatrix (which even beats in Terminator 3). Thomas Decker also really impresses as the young John Connor and comes into his own around episode 7. Sarah Connor takes a bit of getting used to after the role being so well played by Linda Hamilton, however she also is really good in the role.I think that generally it could have been even better, but as a first series and for a film franchise in particular, this has been a well made series which will hopefully get even better in the future. The next series has already been given the green light so I'm looking forward to that already.The special effects for TV Series are also good, although they aren't in the same league as bigger TV series like Heroes (first series at least) or Star Trek, this is evident in the scenes of the future where the weapons don't look anywhere near as good (when fired) as the films. The Terminators themselves also don't look quite as good as in the films, but are still very realistic.In some ways this is better than the third film, whilst in others it isn't. If you liked Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines then you will probably enjoy this and even if you didn't there is enough here to make you watch it. Regardless of these facts the series is worth a look and making up your own mind as it adds to the original story as well as developing other areas further. It will be interesting to see where it goes in the future.

Groupon CEO Mason: I'd fire myself if I were wrong leader
BY SANDRA GUY Business firstname.lastname@example.com November 28, 2012 9:12AM
Groupon CEO and founder Andrew Mason talks to Business Insider on Wednesday, broadcast online. Nov. 28, 2012
Article Extras
Updated: December 30, 2012 3:41PM
Groupon Inc.'s board of directors meets Thursday, and the prospect that it will consider replacing CEO Andrew Mason, and his apparent willingness to step aside if asked, cheered investors Wednesday.
Groupon's stock price on Wednesday jumped 11.62 percent, to $4.42 a share, as investors appear to look to the daily deal site's board of directors to either replace Mason as chief executive officer on Thursday or give him at least six months to turn around the company's reputation and disappointing financial results.
Responding to a Wall Street Journal report that the board at its regularly scheduled meeting Thursday would consider starting a search to replace Mason, the Groupon founder said, "It would be weird if the board wasn't discussing if I was the right guy for the job."
The Journal cited unnamed sources in its Wednesday editions that co-founding investor Eric Lefkofsky and other board members have grown frustrated with the company' stock performance and have tried to push Mason to be more vocal in defending the business.
In a previously scheduled interview shown live online Wednesday by Business Insider, Mason left himself open to leaving his coveted post. When asked whether he wanted to be CEO, he responded: "I want what's best for Groupon."
He also said, "If I ever thought I wasn't the right guy for the job, I'd be the first guy to fire myself."
He conceded that Groupon cannot talk itself back to its IPO price of $20 a share. The key will be executing the right strategy, he said, noting that the CEO must bring consistency, leadership, the ability to put together the right team and the ability to lead that team to success.
The stock has lost 77.9 percent of its value since Groupon went public in November 2011, but had inched up in the past week after Tiger Global, a successful New York hedge fund, drastically increased its stake in the Chicago daily deals site to 9.9 percent.
"Investors are glad that the board appears to be taking a more serious approach to running the business," said Edward Woo, senior research analyst at Ascendiant Capital Markets LLC. "I don't think [the board] is serious about replacing Andrew right now, but hope to get him to work better and make better decisions."
Woo said he would give Mason six months, but he believes the board will wait longer because Mason, the Chicago-based daily deal site's founder, owns so much of the company. A six-month window would give Mason until the end of Groupon's first quarter 2013.
Lefkofsky owns a 27.7 percent voting stake in Groupon and co-founding investor Brad Keywell owns 10 percent, while Mason holds 19.5 percent.
Analyst Aaron Kessler at Raymond James was less certain that a leadership change would help. He told CNBC's "Squawk on the Street" that such changes often produce short-term stock spikes but that "fundamentals" ultimately determine the stock price.
Lou Kerner, founder of the Social Internet Fund, a New York-based investor in fast-growing social and mobile technology companies, first told the Sun-Times in July that Groupon's stock was being hurt partly because investors were struggling to take Mason seriously.
After the interview Wednesday, Kerner said in an email, "The stock is in a tailspin because of poor operational performance. The blame has to fall on Mason. Full stop. It seems the [Groupon] board has decided to leave Mason for the time being and see if Kal Raman, as the new chief operating officer, can help put things back on track (which is highly unlikely given the train wreck the company is at the moment). But if things don't turn around in the next quarter, I think the board would be neglecting its fiduciary responsibilities by not making a change."
Later in the interview, Mason said, "As the founder and creator of Groupon, as a large shareholder and as a customer who just loves the product ... I care far more about the success of Groupon than I do about my role as CEO."
Yet Mason continued to make the case for his leadership, saying, "The team I have put in place and the strategy we can execute" will lead to unlocking a tremendous potential to expand local commerce.
"We're so excited about what is ahead of us," Mason said.
Mason said he was surprised that Groupon has become "the tale of two businesses," with the international business weakening while the North American business and the sale of goods rather than services continue to grow.
Though the goods business provides lower profit margins than daily deals for services at businesses such as spas and nail salons, Mason said, "The margins are things we can optimize over the long term."
Mason repeated his belief that Groupon can leverage mobile technology for greater long-term growth in the daily deals business, and that Groupon can find a niche in offering curated deals so that it has no need to try to out-Amazon Amazon.
Mason said he and Groupon employees have built up a "resiliency" against critics, and the pain they are going through now is part of a journey that he believes will ultimately prove the detractors wrong.

WASHINGTON—The White House and its allies intensified efforts to win backing for a military strike on Syria in the House, which has emerged as the most formidable barrier to congressional approval.
The effort comes as a growing number of liberal Democrats and conservative Republicans in the House are expressing deep skepticism or outright opposition to military action, raising questions about how President Barack Obama will round up a majority for a measure authorizing a strike.
A Senate Foreign Relations Committee resolution says the goal of strikes is to tip the civil war against the Assad regime. Above, a Free Syrian Army fighter in the Raqqa province of eastern Syria on Wednesday. Reuters
Top White House officials held conference-call briefings Wednesday for Latinos and other key factions of the House Democrats. House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi of California—in her third letter to all the chamber's Democrats in as many days—praised a bill authorizing the action that goes before the Senate next week, saying it "addresses some of the concerns expressed by many of our House members."
In preparation for that vote, Mr. Obama called senators from Europe, where he is attending a summit of the Group of 20 nations, and party leaders started a formal head count to size up Senate Democrats' support.
The White House also announced the president canceled a trip to California next week so he could focus on Syria.
The Senate resolution, like a similar measure drafted by leading House Democrats, authorizes up to 90 days of military strikes against Syria for the regime's alleged use of chemical weapons to kill its own citizens. It also bans U.S. combat troops from operating in Syria.
But unlike the House alternative, the version passed by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Wednesday also set a broader policy goal of tipping the civil war in Syria against the Assad regime—language sought by Sen. John McCain (R., Ariz.)—that could make it even harder to pass in the House.
Even without the McCain amendment, the resolution "is going to be much dicier to get through the floor of the House than the floor of the Senate," said Rep. Gerald Connolly (D., Va.), who co-sponsored the narrower House measure. But, he added, "There is a broad middle, albeit a shrinking broad middle, still open to hearing the arguments."
Aaron David Miller from the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars tells WSJ's Jerry Seib that President Obama's pledge for a limited military strike against Syria may be more flexible than many might imagine.
He and other House officials said they believed that ultimately, lawmakers—especially Democrats—will be loath to allow the resolution to be defeated because of the damage it would do to the U.S.'s credibility.

The composition of the Syrian rebels is one of the more complex questions facing the Obama administration. Just who are the people fighting the Assad regime? From the Free Syrian Army to the extremists of the Nusra Front, here's a rundown of the various players in the Syrian opposition.
Others say it is too late to save the measure. "I think it's going to go down," said Rep. Matt Salmon (R., Ariz.), a conservative who opposes the resolution.
But the vote-counting on the issue is fraught with uncertainty. House critics have been outspoken, but large numbers of lawmakers say they are undecided and haven't yet received the classified briefings they want before they take a stand.
Congress remains in recess until Monday, and most lawmakers are out of town.
Even some of the president's most reliable liberal allies—including members of the Congressional Black Caucus—have lined up in opposition.
The White House is working hard to stem defections from the House's 200 Democrats. On Wednesday, White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough held conference calls with members of the House Hispanic Caucus and the Progressive Caucus; another official briefed Jewish House members.
The White House said that Mr. Obama and other senior administration officials have made 25 individual phone calls to lawmakers of both parties.
With the first test coming in the Senate, aides say the House may simply take up whatever measure passes the Senate.
On Capitol Hill, an aide to Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D., Ill.) said the leadership began a formal "whip check" on Thursday of Senate Democrats to see where they stand on the resolution.
Two Democrats, Sens. Tom Udall of New Mexico and Chris Murphy of Connecticut, voted against the bill in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee—and one, Sen. Edward Markey of Massachusetts, voted "present."
A centrist Democrat, Sen. Joe Manchin (D., W.Va.), came out against the resolution on Thursday, saying he concluded after several briefings that "a military strike against Syria at this time is the wrong course of action."
Democratic leaders laid the groundwork for opening that debate by announcing they would officially file the bill Friday.
Critics such as Sen. Rand Paul (R., Ky.) have said they might filibuster the bill, but even Mr. Paul said he expects the measure to pass the Senate.
