Knutson (L-Elgin-Middlesex-London) said he has heard other municipalities are considering such a move and the government can only conclude they don't need the money for items such as public works.

Knutson said Ottawa isn't interested in paying the political costs of raising and collecting taxes so other governments can reap the benefit of lowering their taxes.

 BudoSeek! Martial Arts Community - Shaolin Black Tiger form.
Interesting to hear about the Black Tiger influence on Hung Gar - I guess that one doesn't hear about Black Tiger so much, although I did hear the name because one of the Ten Tigers of Guangdong was Su Hakfu (I think I heard that the first of the 10 Tigers did Black Tiger...).
Yes the Tiger Claw style is an original Shaolin style.It is the basis of both Hung Gar and Black Tiger.The forms i guess you could say are rather long.But not long in the sense of a Hung Gar form.But it would be long compared to other styles.
I guess that Black Tiger looks more like Hung Gar than any other style I am familiar with, but there are many differences, too...

 The Garstangs' Hi Tek Side Door
Anyway, my mom told me I have to be nice to Gar now, and I reeallly like that tek fellow, so when I heard that Gar's family page was going to be honored by being listed among tek's friends, I fixed up a better entrance.
So I figured I'd better make a new side entrance just for tek and friends to kinda show everybody where the cool stuff is, and to warn you when you're approaching a boring spot.
Not to be mean or anything (Hi mom -- see, I'm being nice!!!) but the "front door" looks like one of those boring "Holliday Family Letters" that everybody loves to write but nobody ever reads.

 Chinese martial arts - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Often kung fu teachers are heard to say "train your form as if you were sparring and spar as if it were a form".
Some of these include Bagua, Drunken Boxing, Eagle Claw, Five Animals, Hsing I, Hung Gar, Lau Gar, Monkey, Praying Mantis, White Crane, Wing Chun and Tai Chi Chuan.
Shaolin Kung Fu Shaolin, considered as the centre of the World (for China) was a balanced style incorporating both internal and external, northern and southern, long and short, quick and slow, etc. It seeks to find the ultimate balance between the material and immaterial, physical and metaphysical, with the aim of reaching enlightenment.

 KarateForums.com - Choy Lay Fut discussion
I have heard that Hung Sing CLF's use of the waist is more in line with Hung Kuen's, so their expression is a little more stiff when compared to that of either Chan family CLF or Buk Sing CLF.
I believe Chan Heung's uncle, one of his Sifus, was the one who taught him Hung Gar.
It is a common saying that Hung Gar is the head of a dragon, while CLF is the tale.

 Martial Arts Planet Archive - Dragon style Kung Fu
I read somewhere that dragon, snake and mantis derived styles are considered "high" systems because they are found on the more internal side of the shaolin spectrum, whereas styles like Hung Gar, Tiger, choy li fut, crane, and cobra are considered "low" systems because they rely on more external forms of training.
I have been thinking of taking up a style of Shaolin kung fu to accompany my Tai chi and heard that Dragon style is a rough shaolin equivalent of Tai Chi as it teaches a lot of internal techniques.
the more shorter hand styles would obviously be more 'relaxed' cause it needs to rely on fast, quick, short and powerful strikes and footwork, whereas the 'longer' hand styles such as hung gar and crane would be a little more 'tense' cause the techs just take a longer time to perform.

I've heard hujeta, Acestrorhynchus falcatus, Belonesox belizanus, rocket gar, hydro gar, and of course freshwater barracuda.
I have been having a lot of problems finding information on freshwater barracudas, and it seems to be because there are a lot of different scientific names out there.
These names all seem to be used interchangeably, and yet, there are a bunch of different looking fish.
