Happy birthday, Ken (wagnerk)! Thank you for all of the great contributions that you have made to our community. Enjoy your day. Patrick

Hello, Thank you for visiting KarateForums.com. As there are now two threads for this conversation, I am going to close this one and direct further replies to the other one: http://www.karateforums.com/going-from-shotokan-to-kickboxing-vt48259.html This will make it easier for everyone to follow the discussion. Thanks, Patrick

Happy Mother's Day to all of the Moms here! Patrick

Congrats gronis. Nicely done. Patrick

Congrats on the book. Best of luck. Patrick

Very kind! Thanks for sharing. Patrick

Thank you for sharing that, chiliphil1. I'm sure it's not an easy thing to put out there when martial artists tend to be fairly critical of kids attaining the rank. Side note: I was homeschooled, as well. Thanks again, Patrick

Thanks for the question, Bob and for answering, Shotokannon. In this context, I just mean that the image will display in the post. Like this: http://www.karateforums.com/img/photos/heidininjanurseaward.png Thanks, Patrick

That's awesome! Congrats skullsplitter. Please keep us posted. Patrick

Hey Gary. So glad to have you with us.

Thanks Bob. I appreciate the support. I don't have any plans to bring the photo album back online. However, our software will better handle photo embedding in the future, and I look forward to that. Thanks again, Patrick

Welcome aboard, enjayed. Patrick

Welcome to KF, Sapper Woody. Glad to have you. Patrick

I own and manage a few websites, including this one. I'm also a writer (I've written two books) and public speaker.

Just in reading about this, it's been in development in one form or another since at least 2011: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/scarface-update-being-developed-by-238762 Regarding the content, TheWrap reported this more than a year ago: Here are Al Pacino's thoughts on it: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/al-pacino-talks-scarface-remake-783079

This discussion was split off from the Which Kata Best Demonstrate the Core of your Practiced style thread, so the topic could live on its own, allowing people to talk about it at length without distracting from the other thread (and vice versa). Thanks, Patrick

I have split the discussion of bunkai and whether or not it is about "learning how to move," onto its own thread, so that this thread can be focused on its original goal. If you'd like to follow the other discussion, please head over here: Bunkai = Knowing How to Move? Thanks, Patrick

Hey all, Wednesday is Noah's birthday. Happy birthday. Hope you have an awesome day, Noah! Thank you for all of your outstanding contributions here and for being a great member of our team. Sincerely, Patrick

Hello, Thank you for visiting KarateForums.com. Back in September of 2002, we launched the KarateForums.com Photo Album. As a community, we used it actively for a while, but then use of it slowed as people just started sharing pictures here in the forums. People started doing that because it made a lot of sense. It's more natural and puts the photos in front of more people. And so, the Photo Album died out. The last photo was posted on December 12, 2012, nearly 2 and a half years ago. In light of that, and the way that people are using the forums, we have decided to close the old KarateForums.com Photo Album. However, it has been archived so that it can remain online for the time being, for those who might want to take a look back. You can view it at this link: http://www.karateforums.com/albumarchive/album.html In the future, we will make it even easier to post photos here. For now, I encourage you to use a free image hosts like ImageShack and then embed the image here. If you have any questions or would like help doing so, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you for time and understanding. Sincerely, Patrick

Welcome aboard, maressa.

Awesome. Congrats! Patrick
