World Of Swords

When Sims 3 World Adventures was first told, it blew many players away. Many of us were content with the fact that we'd travel about the neighbourhood and we'd see our sims live, interacting with other sims. Now we were on the point of being given the chance to travel to Egypt, China and France to see how sims live over there. My concern was would the sim countries are like the real countries. Lo and behold, they kind of do. Each country has something special, for Egypt, it's photography. For France, it's nectar making and for China, it's Martial Arts.

Your sims arrive at the base camp of each location. There are basic hygiene and food facilities. There is also the valued notice board, where your sims can pick up local 'jobs ' (adventures) in the country and they will be rewarded by the locals. There's also a special merchant in each country which trade ancient coins for useful objects. Do all you can to collect as many ancient coins.

When your sims travel to Egypt, they can see and explore the pyramids in pursuit of treasure. They can also explore the ancient tombs. It is a little scary going underground, however it's fun. They have different challenges to handle which allows further exploring. There are also tombs to explore in China and France. Beware of the mummies (and their curses).

In Egypt, sims can eat traditional foods,eg Falafel and Shawarma. They can shop in the local market where they can pick up relics, purchase a camera and find out about photography. Sims can also learn snake charming

In France, your sims can learn about nectar making and buy valuable aged nectar from the famous Champs Les Sims Nectary. Sims can enjoy local dishes, for example Bouillabaisse, Cheese plates, Crepes and Frogs Legs.

In China sims can visit the world renown Phoenix martial arts academy, where they can train to become to the very best. They can love eating and making fortune cookies and also local dishes like stir-fry and egg rolls.

As you can see this expansion pack is packed to brim and overflowing. Learn more here.

Karate chop him, screamed the girl, and I had to chuckle. This was a flick where neither the actor, the writer, the director knew the martial arts. See, people used to think that a karate chop to the neck would kill people in their tracks.

When I first began studying Chinese Kenpo Karate I was told that a spear hand to the solar plexus or the neck was the deadliest martial arts attack on earth. Just stick those stiff fingers in the soft areas and watch 'em die. This was better than a karate chop, but only by a little.

Then I heard about the Dim Muk, or what is commonly called The Death Touch. You touch a person on a special spot somewhere on their body and they drop dead. Of course, it would take twenty years to master the Chi Power, learn all the pressure points and times they were vulnerable, and by that time I'd be ancient and too slow to do such a thing.

One evening a student was walking past my Karate instructor holding a square of thin particle board. He suddenly grinned and held the board up to my instructor. Break this, he put forth in a mocking challenge.

My instructor's name was Bob Babich, and he was a short, thin fellow. Given the target, he dropped his weight, twisted his hips, and snapped a single finger out. A single finger, and when he withdrew it, there was a nice, neat, little hole in the particle board.

Many people think I am telling tales when I repeat this story, but the fact is that the single finger trick could be done by no less than fifty people on the Island of Taiwan back in the fifties. Many of the kung Fu masters from across China had gone to that little country to escape communism, and they were able to do things. Unfortunately, there were not enough students, the gene pool was not as large as China, after all, and the single finger trick has pretty well disappeared.

Interestingly, one of the fellows who nibbled at the single finger trick was Bruce Lee. He could stick a finger in a soda (beer) can and leave a hole, and this was back in the day when cans were made of real metal and not this cheap aluminum stuff. This was good, and one wonders whether he would have mastered the single finger trick if he had lived longer.

At any rate, when students ask me what the deadliest karate trick is I tell them about the single finger. It is not a story, it is the result of real and dedicated training in the martial arts, and that includes karate, kung fu, or any other legitimate martial art that has stood the test of time. And, as for the karate chop, that is a good karate technique, but it is only the first step.

Before you learn the one finger trick you have to learn The Secrets of The Punch. Mouse to Monster Martial Arts for that.
