Описание: The Dragon Bagua Zhang system of third-generation master Fu Zhen Song was one of the most powerful martial arts styles to emerge from 1920s China. Fu Zhen Song had a reputation as a skilled fighter and uncompromising teacher, and his Dragon Bagua style was renowned for its extensive catalog of whirling body movements and fighting techniques. In 1991 Lin Chao Zhen, Fu's formal disciple, brought this mysterious martial art to the United States, where he practiced and taught until his death in 1997. "Fu Zhen Song's Dragon Bagua Zhang "presents this challenging system in a step-by-step format, including palm forms, stepping patterns, and training methods. Originally written in Chinese by Lin Chao Zhen and translated by his son, Wei Ran Lin, this edition also features an extensive introductory section on the development of the Dragon Bagua form and the history of its lineage. The text is accompanied by 150 photographs of the late master Lin Chao Zhen demonstrating the form, as well as an illustrated two-person practice set that teaches the system's applications for self-defense and sparring.

The Age of Discovery was a fabulous yet mysterious time. Beginning from early fifteenth century Europeans took to the sea in droves. The result is the discovery of entire heretofore unknown landmasses, including the Americas, Australia, Greenland, Iceland, and others. Indeed that is why the time is known as the Age of Discovery. From the European point of view Europeans "discovered" these places. Today we hail personalities such as Vasco da Gama, Christopher Columbus, Ferdinand Magellan and the like as heroes. Yet we know pitifully little about the history of the period. There are scant official records. Most of what we take as history is in fact basically legends and mythology. Facts are in short supply. Is the name America really derived from from Amerigo Vespucci, a minor adventurer who did not explore the new continents? Today even textbooks attribute the honor to him, but in fact we have no proof that the name America was indeed derived from the name Amerigo.
Why are American Natives called Indians? Are they from India? Hardly. Then why do we call them Indians? Where did the name California come from? Is that an Indian name? Nobody knows. The fact is, the Age of Discovery is full of such conundrums and questionable assertions. Much of what is accepted as history is in fact false. Yes, Christopher Columbus did not discover America Da Gama, who was credited with opening the sea route from Europe to the East, was a savage and brutal man. Hernan Cortes, who conquered Mexico, was a failed legal scholar that could not make good at home and took to adventures. His cousin Francisco Pizarro, who conquered the Incas and founded Peru, was an illiterate, uneducated, illegitimate son of a minor military man. Our heroes of exploration were across-the-board ruffians. What drove them to risk their lives for greatness?
In the prequel of the present book, The Chinese Origin of the Age of Discovery (now 2nd Edition), the case is made that some five hundred years ago Europeans took to the sea because they had inherited the knowledge of the world from the Chinese. At the beginning of the 15th century the Chinese Ming Dynasty had a civil war. At the end the young emperor was defeated by his uncle and vanished. Most thought he died, but the victorious uncle, who was now the new emperor, thought the ex-emperor had escaped overseas, so he built the greatest fleet the world had never seen before to go after him. Thus the Ming fleet roamed the waters of the world for thirty years, and its exploits were learned by the Europeans, who utilized the Chinese sea charts to go to sea, ushering in the Age of Discovery.
Ironically, today historians are unsure of the true purpose of these grand expeditions, and the history of the period is largely lost. In its place absurd theories disguised as history took hold. Now it is claimed that the Ming fleets were enacted to spread the glory of the Ming civilization, to promote international commerce, and proselytize the messages of peace, and the greatest nation on Earth at the time had t do it for 30 years
In the mean time, the biggest mystery of them all: the disappearance of ex-Emperor Jianwen, was left unsolved. Yet, there exist a host of evidence-seemingly unrelated historical tidbits, often unexplainable and ignored-that can shed light on the events of the time. For one, the Ming fleets consistently sailed west. Does that not tell us something? Surprisingly, these historical remnants are not found in the Chinese archives, but in European documents and consciousness.
As the extension of The Chinese Origin of the Age of Discovery, 2nd Edition (ISBN 978-1548435554), The Hunt for the Dragon delves into the mysterious events of the world of six hundred years ago, and offers a shocking take on the extraordinary incidents that now mostly have been forgotten. Have we been propagandizing a wrong history all this time? You get to be the judge.

Описание: Adopted at birth, our hero grew up knowing only the goodness of life. Loving parents, supportive friends, and caring teachers. Intelligent and moral, Ben was destined for a life full of promises. He was accepted by the top university. The path ahead of him was painted in nothing but rose-color. Then it all took a turn; a turn that led to an uncharted labyrinth. Ill-equipped for the treachery of open society, Ben simply took on what came his way and marched forward undauntedly. In no time at all he was deeply into an unfamiliar world from which there was no retreat. Was he merely pulled in by the forces of reality, or did he actually have a fascination for the unsavory elements of Evil? Indeed, did he have an agenda of a personal nature that required his venturing into the less than desirable precincts of living? Regardless, Ben seemed naturally gifted to tackle what came his way, until he must confront the arch rival, the veritable Satan incarnate himself. For Ben it was a struggle of life and death. For us it is the Kingda Ka roller-coaster ride of a yarn; a unique saga of a crime thriller. It juggernauts toward the explosive climax, then a dastard twist pops out; a secret that had been there all along... Excerpts: Garbage Man retrieved a pair of Hammacher Schlemmer 144X Powerful Zoom binoculars. Ben was wide-eyed. He was stunned by Garbage Man possessing such sophisticated spying equipment, which further deepened his wonderment about this otherwise unassuming near-derelict. Maestro's house was within view. Sunken into a small wooded area by the sea the house was barely visible. Down from the house was a pathway leading to a small jetty; small but located at a place that could easily be accessed by a sea-going vessel because of the deep seabed there. Remember, this was Zeung-Bo-Jai the pirate's haunting ground. After scanning the general locale a bit Garbage Man passed the binoculars on to Ben. "Know how to operate it?" Garbage Man whispered. "Never used it before." "No big deal. Just turn here for zoom and this for intensity." "Ok." Ben scanned from the left to the right to get his bearing, then back to focus on the house. Between the trees he could see the large front door behind steel gates. Inside the gate was the BMW. This was Maestro's residence all right. On the walls he could make out what looked like little black boxes positioned at strategic points. Ben gathered these must be surveillance cameras. At the feet of the wall were unmistakable searchlights. Maestro must have reason for the security installations, Ben surmised. As he was scanning slowly Ben suddenly discerned a small shape out in the ocean. It was not moving. It was a ship anchored. Ben fidgeted with the zoom a bit to get the hang of it and zeroed in. A yacht came into viewed clearly. It was a familiar sight. Ben zoomed in further, this time focusing on the yacht's name. Heavenly Queen II. * * * Just as Ben was going by the door a sultry voice came from his left. "Hi, my darling." Ben turned to look. Sitting there out of the light was a pleasant looking lady. She looked about in her late twenties; maybe early thirties, and was pretty in a way a mature woman looked. Dressed in a jade-green cheung-sam, a tight-fitting long tunic with slits cut high up to expose good parts of the thighs, she sat cross-legged on a stool half concealed behind the front door. "How's it going there?" She said in a friendly tone. "Fine. Thank you. How about yourself?" Ben replied with equanimity. "I'm doing all right. Are you guys off now?" "Yes. Sam and I are going for a cup of coffee. You want to join us?" "No can do. Gotta work. Wish I could go with you guys, though. Looks like it's going to be fun." "What are you doing? Just sitting here looking good?" "Pretty much. Someone's gotta keep an eye on things." "Sorry that you can't go. Maybe next time?" "I'm sure there'll be a next time." Seeing the slight puzzlement on Ben's face, the lady added, "Maestro..
