  If you subscribed to the Martial Arts Ezine and do not wish to receive it any longer simply return the mail with unsubscribe as the subject. I apologize for any trouble this put you through.

I'd like to thank everyone for the wonderful contributions of articles, classifieds, and link exchanges. I've, thus far, received nothing but support and good wishes from our fellow martial artists. It is interesting to note that some of the most dangerous people in the world are also some of the nicest people in the world and we do mean world. This is the World Wide Web. Your articles classifieds, quotes, and links are seen by martial artists and martial art enthusiasts all over the world! If you submitted an article and it wasn't in this issue of the Martial Arts Ezine, keep looking. For now I'm just going to stick with one or two articles per Martial Arts issue. I truly appreciate your contribution and it will be used in an issue of the Martial Arts Ezine. In the meantime, because you were kind enough to contribute, I will keep your classified ad and or link in the Martial Arts Ezine at least until your article appears.

  Welcome to our martial arts ezine. I'm Sensei J. Richard Kirkham, your host and editor. There will be no prejudices in this martial arts ezine. We will accept articles from tournament fighters and self-defense specialists. For a short period of time, anyone who contributes to the Martial Arts Ezine can place a free advertisement with us. Who is us? All of you, the contributors, the readers, the advertisers. As I seem to be quite good with web sites, this Martial Arts Ezine will also be posted to http://tutor.hypermart.net/martialarts_ezine11198.html and registered with up to 900 search engines and links. As another service I offer is to enhance a web site for search engine and sales protocols and register the web sites, http://tutor.hypermart.net/submit.html, to search engines, many people all over the world will see your articles and advertisements. For now, if you do not wish to submit an article, but would still like to place an advertisement, which as of now, will show up on the Martial Arts Ezine web site and be sent to our subscribers and contributors of the Martial Arts Ezine. Hard copies of the Marital Arts Ezine are now available $3.00 black and white or $6.00 in color. Faxed copies are $2.00

As you can see I am trying different formats and I NEED YOUR HELP. DON'T JUST UNSUBSCRIBE IF YOU DON'T LIKE SOMETHING GIVE ME SOME FEEDBACK SO I CAN CHANGE IT. Remember , I'm still a white belt in editing. I would also like to know what you think of receiving links to the articles, classified, free electronic greeting cards, and search engines or if it is more convenient, although averages 50k, for you to have this all right there in your email where everything is accessible right there as long as you're on line. I'm also toying with the idea of sending you half the article and the option for you to continue on the web site. This way you know if it is something you are interested in or not. Anyway some feedback would help me a great deal.

We are now accepting ads of any type. We hope this will help non-martial artists to understand the martial arts better.

 Cost of ads per issue:

Classifieds $2.00 per issue

Banner or business card size as $10.00 per issue

You may send your check or money order to the name below.

  Remember since we have also become a hardcopy newsletter you may wish to include a phone number in your ad especially if you want to attract local business.

You may want to consider printing hard copies out of the Martial Arts Ezine and giving them to potential students or customers containing ads or articles that you have submitted.

It aims to attract disabled people in to local martial arts clubs on a fully integrated basis by sampling a range of martial arts that will be on offer.

You will be one of those responsible for spreading the word about our (yours and ours) Martial Arts Ezine. As we receive more and more links and get more and more martial arts ezine contributors and martial arts ezine advertisers, some of the older martial arts links may be removed. However, I will add links to the last 10 martial arts ezine pages which had been registered to search engines so that martial artists and martial art enthusiasts will continue to be able to access your link. (No links, articles, or classifieds are related to the Martial Arts Ezine and we are not responsible for their content nor are they responsible for ours)

***********************************************

  All right that's about it this time. How often will this come out? You let me know how often you would like to come out by submitting articles and or classifieds. We're still in the beginning stages. As regular contributors contribute and regular advertisers run ads we'll know a lot more. I'd like to bring this back to every two weeks unless anyone has any objections. Once a week is very time consuming even with all of the wonderful support I get from you, my martial arts family. Have any suggestions yourself? Let me know.
