Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
First of all, I really want to thank everyone -- regular posters and lurkers alike! -- who has contributed to the running of this board over the years. However, I need to ask everyone again to consider making a gift to the board. Our funds are running low, and we are the only people who can change that.
If just 10% of registered users gave just $10, we'd have enough money to run for over a year. If you've sent me money recently, THANK YOU. If you've never contributed before, please think about throwing in a couple of bucks.
To give via paypal, send it to donations at buffistas.org. If you want to mail me a check, you can email me for my address.
Thanks, y'all. We can make this work!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
People in Natter might have heard me talk about Marni Levine, one of the pillars of krav in the US, and her recent death. This is in her memory:
October 21, 2006, 44 Krav Maga™ Official Training Centers in the Unites States and Canada, 3 in Europe and 1 in Japan will all be teaming up with the non-profit philanthropic organization STOP CANCER™ for the first annual Krav Maga™ Fights Cancer Fundraiser. All proceeds from the Krav Maga™ Fights Cancer Fundraising Seminar will be donated directly to the Marni Fund, Fighting to STOP CANCER™ in Memory of Marni Levine (1969-2006) who died of complications due to cancer.
Krav Maga Worldwide began the Krav Maga™ Fights Cancer Fundraiser in honor of Marni Levine. Marni, one of the founders of the multi-national organization, passed away on August 31, 2006, after a long and courageous fight against cancer, leaving behind a loving husband and two young daughters, ages 9 and 11.
Marni’s death has triggered a reaction in the worldwide community of Krav Maga™ instructors. Martial arts school owners in the United States, Canada, Japan, and Europe have organized a global fundraiser: on Saturday, October 21, every school is hosting a self defense seminar and donating 100% of the proceeds to the cancer research foundation STOP CANCER™.
To find a Krav Maga Fights Cancer Seminar near you, click here.
STOP CANCER™ was created to meet the need for cancer research funding, and Krav Maga™ is joining the fight to “help make the world a better place” by increasing personal safety in our communities and stopping cancer. The goal is to raise more than $50,000 for cancer research at National Cancer Institute—designated comprehensive cancer centers. These funds will be matched by receiving hospitals with an impact of $100,000 toward cancer research.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
