		<description><![CDATA[ALEXANDRIA -- Karate Kicks around 9:45 p.m. Tuesday was the wrong place and the wrong time for a Ball man. But for a Pineville woman, it was the right location and the right timing.

A group of karate students had just completed a judo test at the studio on Jackson Street in Alexandria when they saw a sport utility vehicle quickly pull into the parking lot, running over the curb. Those inside the studio thought the vehicle was going to keep going through the window of the studio building, so they rushed outside, but the SUV bounced back. &nbsp;&#187;&nbsp;<a href='http://m.theadvertiser.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20090423/NEWS01/90423009/-1/WAP&amp;template=wapart'>original news</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you only catch one fight from the Bellator Fighting Championships, held in Chicago on Friday night, watch Kerry Vera's unanimous decision over Leslie Smith. The two women engaged in a brutal, nonstop slugfest. 

Vera, the wife of UFC fighter Brandon Vera, had her debut tonight, though she had fought in kickboxing matches in the past. Her kicks were as brutal as her husbands, and she was unrelenting for the entire fight. Leslie Smith, in just her second pro bout, had several memorable exchanges, including one where she caught Vera's leg and waylaid her with punches. &nbsp;&#187;&nbsp;<a href='http://sports.yahoo.com/mma/blog/cagewriter/post/Mrs-Brandon-Vera-puts-on-an-exciting-fight-with?urn=mma,163811'>original news</a>]]></description>

The odds were squarely against Amy Benevento becoming a master-level black belt. As a child, her parents denied her karate lessons with the edict that karate was for boys. When she finally started lessons in college, she was so afraid of being hit that she stayed in a beginner class for four years. &nbsp;&#187;&nbsp;<a href='http://www.newsobserver.com/news/story/1172661.html'>original news</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA["A unique story on the CBC website details an even more unusual conflict. A Chinese Shaolin temple has demanded an apology from 'an Internet user who claimed a Japanese ninja beat its kung fu-practicing monks in a showdown.' A letter from the members of the temple, posted on the Internet on Thursday, denied the fight ever took place and called on the person who posted the claim under the name "Five minutes every day" to apologize to the temple's martial arts masters. Monks from the temple, which is located in the Songshan Mountain region of the Henan province, said they will consider legal action if he or she doesn't make a public apology." &nbsp;&#187;&nbsp;<a href='http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/09/01/0610201'>original news</a>]]></description>
