Karate Breaking Techniques is the first book devoted solely to the art and techniques of breaking objects. The author, a highly experienced martial arts instructor and former Green Beret, explains clearly and systematically how to break boards, bricks, and other objects, and discusses practical applications of these techniques for self-defense. With over 500 outstanding photographs and sketches, this karate book demonstrates the breaks themselves, then, in a simple, step-by-step manner, teaches how to execute them properly and safely. Although kola and fighting principles differ from style to style, breaking remains a constant, no matter what the style. Therefore, although martial artists may fight differently, execute kato differently or execute entirely different sets of kala, all students of all styles can use the information set out in Karate Breaking Techniques to master the art of breaking. Beginning with thorough coverage of the basics and on examination of the three principles of speed, power, and penetration, the author explains the importance of focus, body conditioning, proper placement of objects to be broken, breath control, and other vital aspects of the art. Hand, kicking, flying, and combination breaking techniques are discussed in detail, and the book concludes with instructions for performing impressive demonstration techniques.

Candle burn and cauldron bubble, I’m in a helluva lot of trouble! Okay, so I’m a witch - a soul sorter - with a magical demon-slaying sword called Nightshade. Not complaining, but it’s wicked stressful. Not only is there an increase in supernatural activity in my ward, I’m being evicted from my new, sort-of- magically important house, breaking in a snarky new familiar, and trying to sort out my feelings for my metaphysically connected and immortal boyfriend, Rick. As if that’s not enough to send me running to the cupboard for comfort Pop Tarts, I’ve uncovered a plot by a local vampire coven to gain the power to control both the living and the dead. History is threatening to repeat itself and if I don’t get a handle on my role as Monk’s Hill Witch, it could cost me everything.

Our nation was founded upon Christian principles and for generations followed the mandates of that established course. Little by little those truths have been forsaken. A "Spirit-empowered, Holy Ghost-anointed, sin-killing, Devil-chasing revival," as Dr. Shelton Smith puts it so accurately, is what the country now needs. These challenging messages remind us vividly that though the world gets darker and darker, the power of God and its availability to us have always been the same. Here, from the heart of a burdened pastor, editor and soul winner, Christians are encouraged to get right with God, catch the Spirit of Christ, serve God diligently, stay on the firing line and wage war against evil. We are salt and light in this wicked world; if we faint not but stay at the urgent task with commitment, determination and long-suffering, God can and will indeed do it again! - Publisher.
