Wing Chun Unchained, will challenge you to open your mind to the potential ofWing Chun. Many students of this great system limit, not only themselves, but Wing Chun itself, due to their preconceptions of how the system should be applied. Many of these preconceptions are due to the popular Ip Man movies, and other movies that focus on Wing Chun. Still others suffer from the system being propagated by instructors with no real experience in practical application of the tools of Wing Chun in "todays" violent street conditions. Author, Tony Massengill brings not only fifty-four years of training in the martial arts, but experience based on a twenty-seven year career on the streets as a police officer, firefighter and emergency medic, to the subject of applying Wing Chun as an effective self-protection method. He has "been there and done that" and brings that practical experience to the readers of Wing Chun Unchained. Wing Chun can't be taught effectively for today, as Ip Man taught it from 1950 - 1972, because the world of fighting has changed a great deal in the intervening years. The tools of Wing Chun are efficient and effective for the task of self-protection in the modern era, but changes in the approach of application need to be considered in light of the world we live in, not the one that Ip Man's students lived in.In this book you will discover how not be afraid to develop your skills such that you can make yourWing Chuna better fit for today's situations, rather than blindly clinging to old approaches to training and applications that do not equip us for the needs of the 21st century. Wing Chun has been around for centuries, and the system needs to adjust in its practices and applications to meet the needs of the present time. The world has changed over the 300 or so years thatWing Chunhas been around, and as practitioners of this system, we need to address those changes and free ourselves of outdated practices and ideas that prevent us from reaching our full potential, and we need to allow Wing Chun as the method we use, to serve us to it's full potential as well.

The field of English for Academic Purposes (EAP) developed to address the needs of students whose mother tongue is not English. However, the linguistic competence required to achieve academic success at any university where English is the medium of instruction is a challenge for all students. While there are linguistic features common to academic literacy as a general genre, closer investigation reveals significant differences from one academic field to another. This volume asks what good writing is within specific disciplines, focussing on student work. Each chapter provides key insights by EAP professionals, based on their research in which they bring together analysis of student writing and interviews with subject specialists and markers who determine what 'good writing' is in their discipline.

In 1971, Californian congressman Thomas M. Rees told the US House of Representatives that 'very little has been written of what the Welsh have contributed in all walks of life in the shaping of American history'. This book is the first systematic attempt to both recount and evaluate the considerable yet undervalued contribution made by Welsh immigrants and their immediate descendants to the development of the United States. Their lives and achievements are set within a narrative outline of American history that emphasises the Welsh influence upon the colonists' rejection of British rule, and upon the establishment, expansion and industrialisation of the new American nation. This book covers both the famous and the unsung who worked and fought to acquire greater prosperity and freedom for themselves and for their nation.
