Greetings!
"In kihon (basics) we learn and train at karate.
In kumite
(sparring) we adapt and use karate.
In Kata we practice
karate."

| Our New AStore |
|
|
AStore is a program with Amazon.com that allows individual
websites to offer the huge variety of products they provide.
Of course, the Warrior Pages already has a store (with the
best prices on the web), but we can't possibly manage the
selection of Amazon.com.
Therefore, we've decided to
offer the best of both worlds to our readers. Both stores can
be accessed through our Store main page.
Check it out,
you'll be amazed at the selection of MA products, but always
check the Warrior Pages store before buying, or you're liable
to miss a bargain.

| TAO TEH CHING, Chapter 53 |
|
|
If only I had the tiniest grain of wisdom,
I should walk
in the Great Way,
And my only fear would be to stray from
it.
The Great Way is very smooth and straight;
And yet the
people prefer devious paths.
The court is very clean and well garnished,
But the
fields are very weedy and wild,
And the granaries are very
empty!
They wear gorgeous clothes,
They carry sharp
swords,
They surfeit themselves with food and
drink,
They possess more riches than they can use!
They
are the heralds of brigandage!
As for Tao, what do they
know about it?

News and Notes |

Two steps forward, one step back. That's still progress,
right? Our host has made some changes to our package so the
Warrior Pages must be redesigned from scratch. Although the
design is well under way, and will allow for an improved
experience, there won't be many new additions until it's up
and running. However, that doesn't mean there haven't been
additions in the meantime.
Also, there have been some outstanding discussions on the
forum.
Just when you think you've got it down, someone always seems
to come around and open a new door of knowledge.
