separate seniors, respected instructors and student. My observations lead me to understand that martial arts are unique in the way that they dissolve pre-existing class structure within their own realm of practice. Lawyers, professors, cashiers, fighters, students, executives, etc (these are people I know and have discussed career and life outside of training with) enter a gym under the persona assigned to them by society but are stripped of this once training begins. I observe that within the martial

The attack “shocked the Muslim world, galvanizing roughly 20,000 foreign fighters to help Afghans resist Soviet forces” (Beauchamp 1). Many of these fighters saw the invasion of Afghanistan as a religious struggle and, as a result, a lot of them formed extremist views. Among these fighters is a nineteen year old Saudi by the name of Osama Bin-Laden and a Jordanian street thug who called himself Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. Although they

maintain an image of superiority over their peers, fighters constantly intimidate and degrade those around them. Commanders of the war use this same method of terrorization by insulting their soldiers and using their men’s fear of death to assert authority over their armies. Leaders expect warriors to take countless lives and suppress any remorse or grief they may feel. Homer negatively depicts

coming from my family, they are fighters as well as I am. As in Boxing, MMA, Jiu-Jitsu, (ETC.) The person who influenced me to keep doing this was my mother her name is Laura. She is the funniest and most loving person I know. She can be very strict with me as well, that has helped me over the years to focus on fighting and being respectful to others. My mother had told me a motto that i will never forget, “Never give up on your dreams of being the greatest fighter that you want to be in the future

further splitting of India, a nation whose freedom fighters risked their lives to free India from British imperialism and keep the nationalistic spirit of “Bharat Mata,” or “Mother India,” alive. The freedom fighters united the citizens no matter their caste, religion, or creed. After India gained its independence, however, these cascades of internal problems led to more and more disunity. This essay analyzes how even though the freedom fighters fought hard for Indian Independence, their struggles

knowledge of the MMA, it seems like a lot of fighters are pretty level headed guys no matter how many punches they take to the face. I get it, it’s great fun to to rough house with a friend, but I really don’t see the point of fighting just to be a violent asshole. I get doing it for sport, because it’s two hopefully sober people who agreed to fight each other where as that might not be the case in a street fight. Now I’ve never met a professional cage fighter before but I have had a few chats with amateur

the Jews were able to produce various weapons, predominately hand grenades and Molotov cocktails. His assertions are more than likely exaggerated; it is more likely that the fighters either used the Polish underground to smuggle in munitions or snuck explosives and chemicals out of the factories. Regardless of how the fighters gained explosives, they were effective in their repulsion of initial German penetration. Partially through surprise and through the implementation of Molotov cocktails, “the

With the increase of Islamic State-affiliated attacks by radicalized “Lone Wolf” actors and dedicated Islamic State fighters, it is necessary to consider the potential for similar attacks in the United States. The November 2015, coordinated attack in Paris, France, and the January 2015, shooting in the Charlie Hebdo offices in Paris, demonstrated the Islamic States ability to coordinate complex attacks in physical locations however, the true measure of the Islamic States potential lies in its ability

good laugh towards what happened in the past. “It is considered one of the most famous sports scandals of all time, but is seems Mike Tyson has finally made full amends with Evander Holyfield – at least on screen” (Dawes). After years of hate, both fighters from the most memorable fight of all time became good friends. Tyson and Holyfield became such good friends that they even took further steps and took their friendship to be viewed worldwide. “Since reuniting on the Oprah Winfrey show in 2009, 12
