❤️ Bajiquan 🐔

"Bajiquan () is a Chinese martial art that features explosive, short-range power and is famous for its elbow and shoulder strikes. Its full name is kai men baji quan (), which means "open-gate eight-extremities fist". Origins Baji quan was originally called bazi quan ( or ) or "rake fist" because the fists, held loosely and slightly open, are used to strike downwards in a rake- like fashion. The name was considered to be rather crude in its native tongue, so it was changed to baji quan. The term baji comes from the Chinese classic, the Yijing (I-Ching), and signifies an “extension of all directions”. In this case, it means “including everything” or “the universe”. The first recorded baji quan teacher was Wu Zhong () (1712–1802). Other notable teachers included Wu Xiufeng () and Li Shuwen () (1864–1934). The latter was from Cangzhou (), Hebei, and acquired the nickname "God of Spear Li". A Beijing opera Wu Shen (martial male character) by training, he was also an expert fighter. His most famous quote is, "I do not know what it's like to hit a man twice." Li Shuwen's students included Huo Dian Ge () (bodyguard to Pu Yi, the last Emperor of China), Li Chenwu (bodyguard to Mao Zedong), and Liu Yunqiao () (secret agent for the nationalist Kuomintang and instructor of the Chiang Kai- shek's bodyguards). Baji quan has since acquired a reputation as the "bodyguard style". Ma Feng Tu () and Ma Yin Tu () introduced baji into the Central Guoshu Institute (Nanjing Guoshu Guan ) where it is required for all students.Ba Zi Jie Xi: a talk on rake fist 耙子解析 Baji quan shares roots with another Hebei martial art, Piguazhang. It is said that Wu Zhong, the oldest traceable master in the baji lineage, taught both arts together as an integrated fighting system. They eventually split apart, only to be recombined by Li Shuwen in the late 18th to early 19th century. As a testament to the complementary nature of these two styles, a proverb states: "When pigua is added to baji, gods and demons will all be terrified. When baji is added to pigua, heroes will sigh knowing they are no match against it." ()Su Yuchang, Pachi Tanglang Chuan: Eight Ultimate Praying Mantis, 2014, p. 175ff. Branches and lineages Prominent branches and lineages of the art survived to modern times, including Han family Baji, Huo family, Ji family, Li family, Ma family, Qiang family, Wu family (from Wu Xiefeng), Wutan Baji Quan and Yin Yang Baji Quan. Each has a unique element while sharing core practices. Some lineages are more common or only exist in Mainland China, while others have spread to Western countries. = Wutan Baji = Wutan BajiNamed after the Wutan Center for the Promotion of Chinese Wushu (武壇國術推廣中心), not to be confused with the Wudang 武當 of the Wudang Mountains. is the most common lineage in the West today. Originally from Taiwan, where its founder, Liu Yunqiao, lived. This lineage includes additional arts that are taught alongside Baji, such as Piguaquan and Baguazhang. Jian Diansheng >> Li Shuwen >> Liu Yunqiao >> Adam Hsu, Su Yuchang, and Tony Yang >> Many students in Taiwan and abroad (taught by one or more of them).Su Yuchang, Pachi Tanglang Chuan: Eight Ultimate Praying Mantis, 2014, pp. 11, 37, 42. = Nanjing Baji = Baji of Nanjing was introduced to the Guoshu Institute by students of Zhang Jingxing, Han Huiqing, and Ma Yingtu. Han had a great influence on the spread of Baji in southern China, to the point that there was a saying ‘bei li nan han’ meaning ‘Li [Shuwen] in the north and Han [Huachen] in the south’. = Mengcun Baji = Meng Village (Mengcun) is said to be the original birthplace of Baji Quan, or at least the modern versions of the art. Baji is still widely practiced there. = Wu Xiufeng = Wu Xiufeng (1908–1976) is the "grandfather" of many modern Baji lineages. The following lineages came down from him. Tian-style A branch of the art which has mutual influences from Jingang Bashi—the second art practiced by Tian Jinzhong. Wu Xiufeng >> Tian Jinzhong >> Shen Jiarui >> Zhou Jingxuan >> Many students in China and abroad. Yin-Yang The creation of Zhao Fujiang, who combined his knowledge of Baji, Xingyiquan and Yiquan to create a new art form. Wu Xiufeng >> Zhao Fujiang >> Many students in China. Features = Tactics and strategy = Baji quan opens the opponent's arms forcibly (qiang kai men ) and mount attacks at high, mid, and low levels of the body (san pan lian ji ). It is most useful in close combat, as it focuses on elbow, knee, shoulder and hip strikes. When blocking an attack or nearing an opponent, baji quan techniques emphasize striking major points of vulnerability, namely the thorax (trunk of the body), legs and neck. Zhou Jingxuan of Tianjin, holding a typical Baji Quan posture. The sideways- protruding elbow is often used for striking in this art. The "six big ways of opening" (liu da kai ) are: * Ding : using the fist, elbow or shoulder to push forward and upward. * Bao : putting arms together as if hugging someone. It is usually followed by Pi (splitting). * Ti : elevating the knee to hit the thigh of the opponent, or elevating the foot to hit the shin of the opponent, etc. * Dan : using a single move. * Kua : using the hip. * Chan : entanglement with rotation around the wrist, elbow and shoulder. = Stepping and body methods = Footwork in baji quan has three special features: * Zhen Jiao * Nian Bu * Chuang BuSu Yuchang, Pachi Tanglang Chuan: Eight Ultimate Praying Mantis, 2014, p. 131ff. These striking techniques are related to traditional Chinese medicine, which states that all parts of the body are connected, either physically or spiritually. = Forms = The forms of baji are divided into armed and unarmed routines. There are twenty fist forms, which include twelve Baji Small Structure Fists, Baji Black Tiger Fist, Baji Dan Zhai, Baji Dan Da/Dui Da, Baji Luohan Gong, and Baji Si Lang Kuan. There are eight weapons forms, including Liu He Da Qiang (spear), Chun Yang Jian (sword), San Yin Dao (sabre), Xing Zhe Bang (staff), Pudao, and Chun Qiu Da Dao (a long two-handed heavy blade, used by Generals sitting on their horses). Most schools focus on a much smaller curriculum. Standard across almost all groups are Xiaobaji and Dabaji; two weapons forms, the sabre and the spear; a two-man training routine called Baji Duijie or Baji Duida and a series of 8 short attacking methods called the "Ba Shi" (Eight Postures), which are derived from the art of Shaolin Jingang Bashi. = Power generation and expression = The major features of baji include elbow strikes, arm/fist punches, hip checks and strikes with the shoulder. All techniques are executed with a short power, developed through training; among Chinese martial artists, baji is known for its fast movements. Baji focuses on infighting, entering from a longer range with a distinctive charging step (zhen jiao). The essence of baji quan lies in jin, or power-issuing methods, particularly fa jin (explosive power). The style contains six types of jin, eight different ways to hit and several principles of power usage. Most of baji quan's moves utilize a one-hit push- strike method from very close range. The bulk of the damage is dealt through the momentary acceleration that travels up from the waist to the limb and further magnified by the charging step known as zhen jiao. The mechanics of jin are developed through many years of practice and baji quan is known for its strenuous lower-body training and its emphasis on the horse stance. Its horse stance is higher than that of typical Long Fist styles. Like other styles, there is also "the arrow-bow stance", "the one-leg stance", "the empty stance" (), "the drop stance" (), etc. There are eight different hand poses, in addition to different types of breathing and zhen jiao. Influences Baji focuses on being more direct, culminating in powerful, fast strikes that will render an opponent unable to continue. Even so, there are some styles that are derived from Baji's main principles or concepts on how to hit the opponent: * Eight postures (Ba shi) * Eight movements method (Ba shi gong) * Eight movements method (Ba shi chui) * Double Eight Postures (Shuang ba shi) * Eight postures of the dragon style (Longxing ba shi) Many of these forms are also based or mixed with Luohan fist, a Shaolin style. The term ba shi may also refer to baji. The term is also used in xingyi quan.

❤️ Nidia Guenard 🐔

"Nidia Guenard (born March 12, 1979) is an American retired professional wrestler. She is best known for winning the reality television series Tough Enough in 2001 and for her subsequent appearances with the World Wrestling Federation/World Wrestling Entertainment. She was with the company until 2004. Professional wrestling career =World Wrestling Federation/Entertainment= Tough Enough (2001) Guenard won a year's contract with the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) after she co-won the first season of Tough Enough, a show meant both to be a "WWF Superstar" talent search, and a semi-documentary of the difficulties of being a trainee professional wrestler. Ohio Valley Wrestling (2001–2002) Guenard made a few appearances on WWF episodes in 2001 before being sent to the Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW) promotion, with whom WWE had a talent-development agreement. While in OVW she feuded with Victoria. SmackDown! (2002–2004) Guenard debuted on the SmackDown! brand on the June 6, 2002 episode, in a backstage segment with The Hurricane (who was her on-screen ex-boyfriend) and Jamie Noble. Noble and Guenard then became an on-screen couple undergoing a "trailer trash" gimmick. They were both playing as heels, with Nidia leading Noble to several wins, due to interference during the matches. At the King of the Ring she led Noble to winning the Cruiserweight Championship from The Hurricane. She then began to feud with SmackDown! Diva Torrie Wilson leading to many solo and mixed tag team matches with Guenard and Noble against Wilson and various other cruiserweights, including Funaki, Billy Kidman, Rey Mysterio, and Brian Kendrick. On the October 16, 2003 episode of SmackDown! Guenard was blinded by Tajiri during a match between Tajiri and Noble, after which Tajiri spewed his "Black mist" onto her face (this version of the mist was only ever seen in this instance). Storyline-wise, this encounter resulted in a physical 'injury' to Guenard. After recovering, Guenard started appearing at ringside with sunglasses on, to 'sell' the after effects of her injuries. During this time, Noble would throw Guenard in front of various opponents at a match's climax, to both save himself and let him later accuse them of "hitting a woman", etc. Later in this storyline, Rey Mysterio revealed to Guenard that Noble was exploiting her in the aforementioned manner, resulting in Guenard turning against Noble and becoming a fan favorite in the process. The two feuded, culminating in a match at No Way Out in which Noble had to wear a blindfold. True to character, Noble cheated to win as he removed his blindfold during the match. Raw (2004) Guenard was drafted to the Raw Brand on March 22, 2004. She became a face and claimed to be excited that she was drafted to Raw, where she can compete for the WWE Women's Championship. She made her debut match on the March 29, 2004 episode of Raw, defeating Molly Holly. She then tag teamed regularly with Stacy Keibler and Victoria against heels Trish Stratus, Gail Kim, Molly Holly and Jazz. With the shift to Raw also came a change in character, as Guenard's Hispanic heritage was played up; to this effect, she was no longer billed as being from the South but instead she was billed as being from Puerto Rico and she no longer spoke English during promos, instead speaking Spanish in a quick and angry fashion. Guenard was released from her WWE contract on November 3, 2004 along with several other performers, in a routine purge of talent. = Independent circuit = Guenard worked several wrestling matches post-WWE, including versus Gail Kim for Mexico's Toryumon and for Australia's World Series Wrestling. In addition, she worked for TNA overseas "a few times." In a ClubWWI.com interview, she said they were fun to work for, but she liked her freedom from wrestling, in general. She also wrestled for Northeast Wrestling (NWE), where she feuded with Jackie Gayda.http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/bios/n/nidia/ Personal life Guenard and her husband David Krichmar have a daughter Lilith (born 2007) and a son, Roman (born 2013). Guenard is a vegetarian. In February 2010, she began training at the Culinary Institute LeNôtre in Houston, Texas.

❤️ Motion Picture & Television Country House and Hospital 🐔

"The Motion Picture & Television Country House and Hospital is a retirement community, with individual cottages, and a fully licensed, acute-care hospital, located at 23388 Mulholland Drive in the Woodland Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles, California. It is a service of the Motion Picture & Television Fund ("MPTF"), and provides services for members of the motion picture and television industry. Origin During the 1930s the untimely deaths of several former Hollywood stars, now destitute, shook the community. These included Roscoe Arbuckle, John Bowers, Karl Dane, Florence Lawrence, Marie Prevost and Lou Tellegen.Golden, Eve; King, Bob (2001), page 141. Golden Images: 41 Essays on Silent Film Stars. McFarland. In 1940, Jean Hersholt, then-president of the Motion Picture Relief Fund, found of walnut and orange groves in the southwest end of the San Fernando Valley which were selling for US$850 an acre ($0.21/m2) ($40,800). The fund's board purchased the parcel that same year to build the Motion Picture Country House. To offset the costs for the first buildings, which were designed by architect William Pereira, were sold. Mary Pickford and Jean Hersholt broke the first ground. The dedication was on September 27, 1942. The Motion Picture Hospital was dedicated on the grounds of the Country House in 1948. In attendance were Buddy Rogers and Loretta Young, among other stars.https://www.mptf.com/mptf- story-1/ Services were later extended to those working in the television industry as well, and the name was altered to reflect the change. Operations Scores of movie notables spent their last years here, as have far less famous people from behind the scenes of the industry. Those with money paid their own way, while those who had no money paid nothing. Fees are based solely on the "ability to pay." Individuals in movies, TV, and other aspects of the industry, are accepted, such as actors, artists, backlot men, cameramen, directors, extras, producers, and security guards. To qualify for a cottage, applicants (or their spouses) must have reached a minimum age of seventy, and must have worked steadily for at least twenty years in entertainment industry production. The waiting time is usually a few months, with no preference given to celebrities or those who can pay their own way, officials of the fund have said. The facility has an annual budget of $120 million. In 1993, the Motion Picture & Television Fund Foundation was established with Jeffrey Katzenberg as Founding Chairman. The Foundation continues to exist as the conduit to marshal the vision of its donors and their philanthropy to the growing human needs of the entertainment community it serves. The MPTF Foundation puts on annual events that help raise millions of dollars, to continue its mission to assist those entertainment industry members in need. These events include the Michael Douglas and Friends Golf Tournament, The Night Before and The Evening Before. In 1998, the Woodland Hills campus was renamed The Wasserman Campus of the Motion Picture & Television Fund in honor of the long-time commitment and support of Mr. and Mrs. Lew Wasserman. In February 2000, William Haug resigned as MPTF CEO. The position was filled on May 16, 2000, by Dr. David Tillman, LA Times who was at that time one of the highest paid CEOs of a health care center. His current annual salary, including perks and bonuses, is approximately $750,000. In 2006, the groundbreaking for the Saban Center for Health and Wellness featuring the Jodie Foster Aquatic Pavilion was held on The Wasserman Campus. The center was named after donors Haim Saban and his wife Dr. Cheryl Saban. It opened its doors on July 18, 2007, and features aquatic and land-based therapies as well as MPTF's Center on Aging. Besides offering temporary financial assistance and operating the Motion Picture & Television Country House and Hospital, MPTF's services operate six outpatient health centers throughout the greater Los Angeles area as well as the Samuel Goldwyn Foundation Children's Center. In October 2008, MPTF's Corporate Board of Directors voted unanimously to close its acute-care hospital and long-term care facility by October 2009. In December 2008 the MPTF Board of Trustees voted unanimously to support the October decision of the Corporate Board. This vote was done without the knowledge of residents or families that would have been affected by the closure. As late as November 2008, after the October 2008 vote to close the acute-care hospital and long-term care facility, residents were admitted to the Long Term Care center under the impression that they would be there 'for the rest of their lives', only to learn a few months later that the LTC unit would be closing. In 2002, director Barry Avrich produced and directed a documentary about the MPTF called Glitter Palace. The film featured an inside look at MPTF and its famous residents. Announced closure of LTCU On January 14, 2009, residents and families of the long-term care unit (LTCU) were notified by mail of the closure and imminent re-location of elderly and disabled residents under the care of the MPTF. In a meeting held by former CEO Dr. David Tillman with concerned family members, it was revealed that the LTCU and Acute Care Center would be closing. The meeting became extremely contentious as it became known that the reasons for closure had been simmering for five years without the knowledge of residents who had been admitted to the facility under the false promise of having a 'home for the rest of their lives'. The main reason given to the families was that the LTCU was losing $10 million per year, and that this would ultimately bankrupt the fund. It was noted by actors John Schneider and David Carradine, who attended the meeting in support of the families, that the MPTF was indeed not living up to their credo of "taking care of their own" and had failed to notify the families and the entertainment industry of the closures in a proper, humane way. Foundation CEO Scherer had been profiled in 1996 as a rainmaker whose fundraising acumen was allowing the Motion Picture Home to dramatically expand its services. At the time of the announcement, 138 individuals were receiving long-term care at the facility. Jeffrey Katzenberg, current chairman of the MPTF Foundation Board, said the fund realized they had no choice but to close the facility, stating "the acute-care hospital and long-term-care facility are generating operating deficits that could bankrupt MPTF in a very few years." There were over 500 hospital admissions and approximately 100 long-term residents alone in 2008. The fund administrators projected their shortfall would only grow as a result of the deteriorating economy.By Lisa Girion and Richard Verrier: Primary sources of funding for long-term care and the hospital are Medicare and Medi-Cal. The facility claims it receives approximately $20 million a year in reimbursements, though operating costs were $30 million a year. The MPTF receives approximately $10,500 per patient per month from Medi-Cal. The California Healthcare Foundation found that the MPTF receives 80% of its patient funding from Medi-Cal. Soon thereafter, a grass-roots organization Saving the Lives of Our Own (STLOOO) was created to organize residents, family members, and supporters to fight the closure of the LTCU. A Facebook group was generated that quickly became over 3,500-strong, to also support those residents and families who were facing eviction by the MPTF. Soon thereafter, the law firm of Girardi + Keese came aboard to represent residents and family members who were guardians ad litem for their elderly family members. In the ensuing months, the MPTF had to deal with a barrage of claims that revealed inaccuracies in claims of the fund's alleged financial peril, and the absence of any exposure of the elderly residents to transfer trauma. According to a STLOOO member, the daughter-in-law of one resident reached out to him over the Internet stating that her mother had refused to eat on the second day in her new residence. Two weeks later the woman had died following complications due to pneumonia. Claims of bullying by social service workers and more deaths that could be attributed to transfer trauma were reported to family members by other family members. Additionally, in an act that could allege intentional infliction of emotional distress, the MPTF placed a fake studio prop cop car that was painted to resemble a Los Angeles Police Department cruiser in the parking lot. That had an intimidating effect on the elderly residents who knew they were facing 'eviction' from the property. Again, Ken Scherer in an interview was quoted as saying the idea of the prop police car was 'wrong', his admission surprising families. Articles published in the Los Angeles Times, the Daily News and online by The Wrap.com and Nikki Finke's Hollywood Daily continually hammered the Motion Picture and Television Fund with new-found facts, reporting of resident deaths, and other facts that flew in the face of what the MPTF was claiming. In October 2009, when it was originally set to close down the LTCU, the MPTF renewed their operating license of the LTCU and Acute Care Unit for another year. CEO David Tillman later resigned and was replaced by ousted Panavision CEO Bob Beitcher. Future Through the tenacity of its advocates, the MPTF was navigated through the storm of its 2009 fiscal crisis. As of 2016 the MPTCHH is still fully operational and has plans of expansion, including a for-profit 400-unit luxury community for independent-living seniors on an 18-acre adjacent field (now growing tomatoes and basil) that would pump money back into the organization. For his 99th birthday, actor Kirk Douglas endowed the MPTF with a $15 million gift to enable the creation of an 80-resident Alzheimer facility. The facility, which is to be named the Kirk Douglas Care Pavilion, has not yet been officially announced. 2020 coronavirus outbreak The hospital experienced an outbreak amidst the COVID-19 pandemic in April 2020,First MPTF Nursing Home Retiree Tests Positive For Coronavirus; Two Others Showing Symptoms resulting in the deaths of at least five residents. The first fatalities at the retirement community were John Breier, a long-term care resident who died on April 7, 2020, and actor Allen Garfield, who also died on April 7. By April 22, 2020, 14 residents (out of a population of 162 residents) and nine of the facility's 400 employees had tested positive for COVID-19.
