How Do I Stop Being Afraid of Walking Down the Street When I Have Been Beaten Up by Total Strangers
Practice bursts of running to safer places. Fighting there, or resting and running with a tree, or pole between you and the thug, while you talk them out of attacking you. Youu2019re obviously stalling and moving u2014 telling them about the security camera over there thatu2019s capturing them u2014 and then breaking free and running away as they look at where you pointed.
Take a couple self-defence courses: a military style like Krav Maga or a hybrid style like Jeet Kune Do/Fillipino Martial arts. And a classic like Judo (or Karate). I loved Judo the most because itu2019s easy to start and feel progress in a supportive environment. Other styles have a monotonous, tough learning curve and hierarchy/belt system that drags the learning out longer than Judo.
Carry a tough, super bright flashlight and at least one of those small alarms. Be loud, and run like hell! Yell Fire. Theyu2019ll think you are crazy but people will notice "fire" and react rather than "help!"Be safe! Good Luck!

Why do people think the 2nd Amendment is about guns?
It is about weapons and arming the citizenry otherwise the term by and for the people would have been left out. if it wasnt it would have used the term by and for the army or by and for the govt which doesnt make sense since a govt relys on its citizens to uphold the govt and keep it in check an armed citezenry can keep a govt from going tyrannical and defend the country when an army chooses to try to subvert this nation by force. that is how and when a militia is formed and a militia consists of you guessed it citizens not to mention that the armed forces of a nation are made up of citizens qoute on qoute. if anything the 2nd amendment isnt just about guns but about weapons in general and an armed populace is better than a completely disarmed populace in wartime. as a fact the second amendment goes back to laws in medieval period england post magna carta. (and even farther considering men have been arming themselves for self defense war and personal protection for hundreds of years)a decree that every household should be armed and prepared in time of war and train martially every sunday. in case an army of frenchmen comes storming across the channel to murder you you and your family. you will be protected. it was a requirement and was the kind of thing still in practice when the founding fathers formed this nation and understood that the basic need of humans being able to defend themselves and others in time of war as a basic right of the people

How was Satyabhama related to Jambwaan?Satyabhama was the only child of the Yadava chief Satrajit. Even though at the time it was more common to raise boys in martial arts and athletic pursuits Satyabhama was trained to be a warrior by her father. Satyabhama is believed to be an Avatar or incarnation of Bhudevi.
Satrajit was the owner of the Shamantaka jewel. Satrajit secured the jewel from Surya and therefore never wanted to part with it even once when Krishna, asked for it he said that the jewel would be safe with him. After some time, Prasena, the brother of Satrajit went out hunting wearing the jewel but was killed by a lion. Then Jambavan (Jamvanta,) killed the lion and gave the jewel to his son to play with it. When Prasena did not return, Satrajit wrongly blamed Krishna for killing Prasena for the sake of the jewel.Krishna to prove himself innocent set out in search of the jewel and found it in Jambavans cave, with his child. Jambavan attacked Krishna thinking him to be a trespasser who had come to take away the jewel. Both of them fought for continuous twenty-eight days. At last Jambavans whole body was horribly wounded from the thrashing of Krishnas fists. Jambavan recognised Krishna as the Avatar of Lord Vishnu and surrenders. Jambavan was remorseful and gave Krishna the jewel.Then Krishna returned the jewel to Satrajit, who also repented for his allegation. He offered Krishna the jewel and also wanted Krishna to marry his daughter Satyabhama. Krishna accepted Satyabhamas hand but denied from accepting the jewel, Satyabhama became the third wife of Krishna

Is there a good basic martial art to learn to build confidence and some basic self defense skills? I'm aware the best technique in 99% of situations is to flee, but I do security work and I might be transferring to a more dangerous assignment.Anything you learn in a short period of time is going to be of very little use u2018when the shit goes downu2019.The types of "skills" taught in self defence courses are of no practical use against a committed attacker.I donu2019t know the laws in your country, but in New Zealand, as a security worker, if you strike someone, youu2019re (potentially) liable for an assault charge, and plenty of security staff have been charged. You almost, but not entirely, give up your right to defend yourself.If you train in any offensive martial arts such as boxing, muay thai, or krav, youu2019re likely setting yourself up for prosecution if you use those skills against an attacker. Not to mention the fact that it will take some time to develop any actual skill that will be of use in a high stress situation.
Wrestling or bjj would be useful, but the lead time to develop skill is long, and neither art is useful against an armed or multiple attackers.The only kind of striking you should look to employ is that which looks like youu2019re trying to push someone away - open handed strikes.Iu2019ve taught such skills to a number of security staff to great effect, but it still takes time to learn. On average, it takes 3u20136 months of 3 sessions per week to develop the level of skill they can actually use.Is there a good basic martial art to learn to build confidence and some basic self defense skills?

What are the job responsibilities of an air hostess?They do a lot but some of the work depends on the length of the flight and the services which are offered. On a long haul flight, meals and drinks will be served. On short flights, usually on a beverage is served. Safety briefings must be conducted and during boarding it is the job of the flight attendants to make sure that passengers have secured their luggage in a safe way and that they have buckled their seat belts, put up their tray tables and righted their seat backs. In the event of an emergency, it is the job of the flight attendants to prepare the passengers for every contingency and in the event of a water ditching or a crash, to get as many people off the plane safely as they possibly can. They are trained to do this. They also need to know CPR and have some basic medical training so they can minimize loss of life in the event of someone becoming ill on board. Most airplanes carry a defibrillator and of course we have oxygen in case someone needs it. Theres more of course, but this is a short list. It takes about 6 to 8 weeks to complete the training and each aircraft has a different list of things to learn - how the doors open, what to do in the event of a water or land evacuation, how to fight a fire on board, how to handle unruly passengers - on and on and on. We even practice getting into a life raft and knowing what is on the raft in the event we are forced to ditch in a body of water. They are not just fluff to serve your your drink!
