I would like to donate a portion of the proceeds of the Krav Maga seminar to a reputable charity. If anyone has any ideas or contact info for me that would be great. I was thinking maybe disabled veterans or something along those lines. I am open to all suggestions. Thanks for your time.

Well I think I’ve finally got the date set for our seminar. November 16th 2008 at SpringHill Suites Devens Common Center.Moshe will be Flying in on that same day. The event will kick off at 2pm. You will be able to get a certificate and other items to defend yourself. Remember Krav Maga is fighting for survival up close and personal. This will be exciting, fun, and informative. Check back again for info on Pre registration.

With gas prices being what they are, out of control, people tend to do stupid things. I saw on the news yesterday some guy had hundreds of dollars worth of fuel syphoned out of his boat. I know it cost over $250 to fill an average size boat. It would be pretty upsetting to bring the family out for a nice weekend trip and it’s canceled because some low life stole your fuel. If you don’t have a locking gas cap on your car, boat, or motorcycle you should get one. You should also invest in a security system or a surveillance system.Don’t let bad people or worse planning ruin your day. It’s too expensive to be careless with your belongings. Take care of your stuff and your family.

How would you like to be notified directly if there is a problem at your home? Even if no one is there the Auto Dialer Intruder Alarm can call you and 4 of your closest friends, or the police, or any one else you would like to be aware of a situation at your house.
It has an infrared sensor to detect movement. When it does detect movement a 105db alarm will sound and it will call whatever numbers you have programmed. This is not a intimidating piece of equipment. It is simple and straight forward. I am not the most electronically gifted person and I have these in my home.
It’s great to know that such a simple gadget can deter theft, notify police, call me, or several other functions. The great thing about it is, it is under fifty bucks and it makes me feel a lot safer.

Too many martial arts schools train in ‘ideal’ situations, i.e. someone weaker than you attacks you when you are well rested, have plenty of space to work with, and have no obstacles in your way. We train differently.

Krav Maga uses real life as its laboratory and testing ground. Techniques that fail on the street are dropped and replaced. One of the situations often ignored is when you are up against the wall and a stronger, determined, assailant, is in your face with a knife, stick or just his big ugly paws. What do you do then?

Most of what you have learned will prove useless, and you have only seconds to act. We train for precisely this kind of situation; your worse case scenario. We train to survive.

If you live in the Boston or Lunenberg area, come join us for a seminar.

Stay safe,

Moshe

Happy 4th of
July!……………. ……let’s get this started now,
So it will be out there on the fourth!!!!

I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE
FLAG,

OF THE
UNITED
STATES OF AMERICA,

AND TO THE REPUBLIC, FOR
WHICH IT STANDS,

ONE
NATION UNDER GOD,

INDIVISIBLE,

WITH
LIBERTY

AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!

For
All of our other military personnel, where ever they may
Be
Please
Support all of the troops defending our Coun try.

And God
Bless our Military who are protecting our Country for our
Freedom.
Thanks
To them, and their sacrifices we can celebrate the 4th of July

We must never forget who
Gets the credit for the freedoms we have, of which we should be
Eternally grateful.

I watched the flag
Pass by one day,
It fluttered i n the breeze.

A young Marine
Saluted it,
And then he stood at ease..

I looked at
Him in uniform
So young, so tall, so proud,
With hair cut square
And eyes alert
He’d stand out in any crowd.

I thought how many men
Like him
Had fallen through the years.
How many died on foreign
Soil
How many mother’s tears?

How many pilots’ planes
Shot down?
How many died at sea
How many foxholes were soldiers’
Graves?
No, freedom isn’t free.

I heard the sound of Taps
One night,
When everything was still,
I listened to the bugler
Play
And felt a sudden chill. I wondered just how ma ny times

That Taps had meant ‘Amen,’

When a flag had draped a
Coffin.
Of a brother or a friend.

I thought of all the
Children,
Of the mothers and the wives,
Of fathers, sons and
Husbands
With interrupted lives.

I
Thought about a graveyard
At the bottom of the sea

Of unmarked graves in
Arlington.
No, freedom isn’t free .

I recall at the end of a seminar, as I was walking out, a participant says to me, “Hey, could you show me how to defend against a knife!”, For a martial arts expert this is a great punch line. In fact my friend, Arthur Cohen, a 44 year veteran of the martial arts, thought it was so funny he kept telling this story. To an average person it does not sound so funny though. Why? Because they have no idea what is involved in a knife attack. They seem to think it is something that you can just learn by asking someone how it is done.

I was saddened to read Ben’s recent blog about his friend getting stabbed. Most people don’t understand how fast all this happens and how difficult it is to defend against a determined man or woman with a blade. For those with an interest in American history there is an interesting and horrifying account on the knife attacks at the home of William H. Seward, a cabinet member in Abraham Lincoln’s administration. On the night that President Lincoln was shot there was a plan to also kill two others; Seward and the vice president. The would be assassin of the V.P. backed out. The man who planed to kill Seward arrived at his home with a gun and a knife. The gun jammed. Using the knife as a backup he managed to stab several members of the household including an armed guard. That’s how it is with knife attacks; quick and brutal.

I will be in Lunenberg, Mass in November, stay posted for the date, and I will teach the Krav Maga approach to surviving a knife attack. Ben is organizing this seminar and I urge you to attend. I will teach the methods that have allowed many Israeli soldiers, security guards and civilians to survive an edged weapon attack.

May we never experienced such an attack,

Stay safe,

Moshe

Have you ever heard a blow gun go off? Me either. What better way to surprise your opponent than with one of these stealthy bad boys. If you’re trying to defend yourself you can use the darts but if you’re just out to have some fun, you can use the paintballs. How cool would that be? A bunch of friends get together with their blow guns and paintballs in the woods. Get dressed in your best camouflage. Some of you on one side and the rest on the other. Put a flag in the middle and go to town. Or just set it up for targets. Have a competition and hand out trophies for the best shot. I have one of my own that I play around with in the back yard and I’m becoming a decent shot. Maybe I’ll put out a challenge to people in the area. If you can beat me I’ll give you a blowgun for free. Well let me know what you think or tell me some cool blowgun stories. Talk to you soon. Stay safe.

The other night, at a bar in my small town there were some disturbing events. My Fiance’ went out that night with my cousin and a few friends. They had a great time and came home in one piece. Unfortunately for a friend of ours and a couple other people, including a police officer their night was not as enjoyable.
They were at the bar and decided it was time to go. Only a few minutes after they had left some jerk thought it would be a good idea to stab a few people. One of them happened to be a friend of ours. He was stabbed in the abdomen. They rushed him to a nearby hospital where he’s been for several days in the ICU.
Like I said, I live in a small town. You really don’t expect things like this to happen in a seemingly happy little town. Well it just goes to show you that it can and eventually will.
Here is the news article posted in the Sentinel and Enterprise LEOMINSTER — A Shrewsbury man allegedly stabbed three people at the Hot Shotz bar on Rt. 13 early Saturday morning and violently resisted arrest, according to Police Lt. Michael Goldman.

Luis Muniz, 25, fled the scene after stabbing two victims at the bar, according to police. It’s unclear whether the stabbing occurred inside or outside of the bar but the victims were inside when police arrived just before 2 a.m., according to Goldman.

Interviews of witnesses and victims were still being conducted Saturday, according to Goldman.

It’s sad that we can’t even go out for a good time any more without having to watch our backs. I lived in the city before and didn’t like it for these same reasons. High crime and feeling unsafe all the time is not my idea of a happy life style.

If you know a scum bag or someone that likes to make others lives hell please feel free to tell them to stay the hell away from my friends, my family, me, and my home
