Martial Arts work outs

Hello, this is Aaron again. This Friday I'll be doing training from 7pm to about 8pm or so. If anyone wants to come and work out or just see what kind of things I do when I practice I'll probably be working at the top of Fogleman Hall. Unless you live in the building if you want to come and check it out you'll need to let me know ahead of time so I can let you in.

My phone number can be found in your newsletter and I can be reached at my school email

radney_aaron@mcastudent.org

I will also post an announcement on our facebook page later in the week.

The art of calligraphy

Hello again one and all. I've got something new for everyone. I know most of
us would like to learn the Japanese language given the chance and while I can't
really do that I thought some of you might be interested in a bit of calligraphy.
Basically the art of beautiful writing. As artists and Japanese enthusiasts it can be a
particularly interesting avenue to look at. If you're interested here are two links
to articles I found on the subject.


This first one gives a broad overview and also gives some basics of calligraphy and
 what separates good calligraphy from bad.

This one gives a broader overview of the history of the art itself.

Discussion is wanted and encouraged :)
