China: Android Runs Complete Half-Marathon! (16.11.2024)
Human performances varies across a considerable scale – whilst Socialist ideology emphasises “effort” whilst also recognising a natural “achievement” at the high-end of performance that does not leave the bulk of humanity behind. Human performance must exist on a scale that allows an “average” ability in real life that ensures the survival of the human race. Migratory humans used to “walk” thousands of miles whilst following the good weather and the shifting herds. All humans, men, women and children, as well as the young, old, and ill, would participate in these massive migrations – with the lower speed ensuring the greater survival rate over-all. Yes – those who could run fast over long or short distances had their place – but such abilities were considered peripheral to the needs of tribal survival.

Discussing the ‘Randori’ [乱取り] Concept Found within Okinawan & Japanese Martial Arts! (11.2.2024)
A skill is missing which must be acquired and formulated into an effective code. In other words, the ability to fight is a) lacking, b) must be attained, and c) its principles placed into a logical code for others to follow. Within Okinawan and Japanese martial arts this refers to training for combat – or what is referred to as ‘Sparring’ in the West. This is NOT sport fighting for egotistical reasons – but rather self-defence so that the physical body ‘survives’ any martial encounter. The body may be wounded or unhurt – either it is alive. This is different to gaining a piece of coloured cloth worn around the waist – or a shining tin cup, etc. Fighting for one’s life is very different to fighting for money.
