Here are some more information for Kimono Classical:
I don't care if you study Uechi ryu or shotokan or kenpo, or whatever, you're going to need a powerful fist. I don't care if it is boxing or Krav maga or tae kwon do, you're going to need a fist that knocks them down the first time! Even if you're in Aikido or Tai Chi, you're going to need some kind of real power, or at least know what power is so you can properly handle it.
The funny thing is that a powerful punch is can easily be had if you follow a couple of easy steps. You don't have to slam your poor mitts against a telephone pole. You don't have to thrust spear fingers into boxes of sand.
As with most things in this world, once you know the knowledge behind something, that something is easy to understand and do. Thus, the first thing you need to know in developing a killer punch is simple. That one thing you need to understand is...weight.
This universe is constructed of nothing more than objects flying through space. When objects strike one another weight will be the resulting sensation. The more weight involved in the collision, the bigger and better the collision.
To hit somebody, your fist must sail through space and crash against them. Now, if the body your fist is colliding with weighs a couple of hundred pounds, then you are going to have to have a two hundred pound punch. Well, you could multiply the 20 pounds of your arm by ten times the velocity, but there is a method that is easier.
The easiest way is to align your body behind the strike. Your arm may be 20 pounds, but if you can add the weight of your torso and your limbs and even your head to the punch, you can weigh, especially when you times your weight by velocity, 200 pounds. Heck, if you can line up a hundred pounds of body weight behind that strike, and then multiple it by a simple ten, you are going to have a thousand pound sledge hammer of a punch!
First, do lots of push ups, and when your arms get strong and able to absorb the shock, start jumping your push ups into the air. Second, do your form slowly, looking at the pieces of your body, and learn to assemble them into one movement. Three, set up a six foot tall box, pad it, make it weigh 200 pounds, and practice shoving it across the floor with your punch.
The funny things is that this method is so simple that nobody has ever really stumbled across it. And, to be truthful, the importance of delivering weight in the martial arts has been totally overlooked. But, whether you do pa kua chang, tai chi chuan, Shito ryu, Hung gar, or any of the forms of classical kung fu, you need to understand weight, and you need to implement some form of the training method I have detailed here if you want The Most Powerful Punch on the planet!
Al Case has taught the martial arts for 40+ years. He has written hundreds of articles for the magazines. You can find out more about The Most Powerful Punch at Monster Martial Arts.
Timeless Classics at Queen Bee Maternity
While some of the more high fashion looks date fairly quickly, a classic wardrobe is always in style. Think Audrey Hepburn, or more modern style mavens like Natalie Portman, and Angelina Jolie. .All share the knack for realising a timeless sense of style, with looks which can comfortably span the decades.
Fashion styles which hark back to Hollywood's glamour era are more popular than ever for stars treading the red carpet, which just goes to show that some looks will always work, whether it's the 1930s, 1960s or 2009.
So how do you go about achieving a wardrobe with timeless style and appeal? Go for clothes which are simple and not too fussy. Choosing pieces which can be paired with others in a variety of ways to create multiple looks also makes sense.
Queen Bee basics like our tank top, cami, and kimono top in black or crème (off-white) will give you plenty of options, and a classic below the knee skirt like this essential skirt by 1 in the Oven or Soon's knee length pencil skirt can be worn through pregnancy and beyond.
The Audrey Hepburn style is one which is often emulated (and Natalie Portman is sometimes called a modern day Hepburn). Hepburn's style was based around a collection of classic pieces - the plain white shirt, capri pants, turtleneck shirts or sweaters, skinny leg pants, a little black dress for nights out, flat shoes and a scarf or two. And her favourite clothing colours? You guessed it, usually black or white.
Start your own Hepburn-inspired wardrobe with the best in maternity basics from Queen Bee; white boatneck top with ¾ sleeves, scoop necked tee in white, black or blue, maternity navy denim capris, straight legged black pants from Soon, and turtleneck tops. Finish off with a little black dress like this modal one by Mayreau, and wear them all with your favourite flat shoes (or low heels for the evening). Our black Modern Love Bow Dress with its boatneck and ¾ sleeves is another classic and cute dress for work or evening wear.
Angelina Jolie is another who opts for basic black, and timeless, minimal styles much of the time. She has also been famously pregnant twice in recent years and was much watched both times by the style pundits. In early pregnancy, she looked classically chic wearing a cover-all black trench coat to an awards ceremony, and when in Cannes wore the Juliet Dream shirred tank available from Queen Bee. But while black remains something of a trademark for Ange, her stylist Jennifer Rade said that during pregnancy, she was "definitely...open to colours", and wore colourful ankle length maxi dresses on a number of occasions, like this floaty mint green one, her soft mauve ankle length Gerard Darel dress or this micro-printed flowing dress. For a similar look from Queen Bee, try the maize print maxi dress or our popular cover girl Paris maxi dress, both by Juliet Dream.
Even when wearing a maxi dress though, Ms Jolie hasn't been shy about displaying her pregnancy enhanced bustline; you can show off yours too in beautiful style with this chic black bustier ¾ sleeve top.
Ange also uses black chiffon over a black, white and pink patterned Malo dress, and if you like chiffon's softening effect, try Queen Bee's elegant black Evening Flutter dress by Maternal America, which achieves a similar softness with chiffon mesh to cover the arms and shoulders.
Remember, keep it simple and classic, and you'll always be in style!

Do you think we should lobby Y!A to split up >Comics & Animation into its various genres?
I'm pretty sure there are many Anime fans with various categories; I know there are a lot of Classical Cartooning fans with a historical bent; and I know there are many people who want to create leading edge new stuff. None of these people are working with the same interest in style, storyline, or even cultural commentary.
Do you think we should ask if the Mighty Yamster (you know, he's the cartoon rodent in the kimono/pajamas/bathrobe/or whatever-the-heck-he's-wearing) would allow a division of these important categories?
hmmmm...a banking question...let's see...
no. they didn't split mathematics either and i'm tired of the 'calculus sucks' answers. calculus is a beautiful thing and so many negative vibes. think positive thoughts and be well.
there you go...the other side of the coin.
good luck.
