A greenpete success story

If your a fan of blades then watch this video, this guy has been making knifes for about a year (at time of making of video). He got started by watching the fantastic video from greenpete
and a year later he's making stunning blades like this.
I recommend you watch greenpetes video just to see how easy it is to make your very own knife, i recently bought all the tools he used but still need to get to the scrap yard. If i can make a knife half as good as this one then i'd be a very happy chappy.

Fela Kuti

I'm stuck in the house today with the dreaded man flu but it gave me the opportunity to watch the Ginger Baker in Africa dvd i bought ages ago. Here's a scene from it.



If you like Fela Kuti be sure to track down this fantastic album

Amazon.co.uk Review
Never has there been a more appropriate Red Hot tribute than this one dedicated to the music of Afrobeat founder Fela Kuti, the Nigerian legend who died from AIDS-related complications in 1997. The artists and groups heard here, nearly 40 all told, cover the musical spectrum: hip-hop (Blackalicious, Roots), jazz (Roy Hargrove, Archie Shepp); soul (Sade, D'Angelo), Afrobeat (Tony Allen, Femi Kuti), world music (Baaba Maal, Jorge Ben), electronic music (Mixmaster Mike, Money Mark) and rock (Nile Rodgers). They have come together to raise money for the 25 million Africans now infected with the AIDS/HIV virus. Red Hot efforts often pair different artists together on the same song, and this album features many once-in-a-lifetime collaborations. Fela's music has been refashioned and mixed together here according to the styles of the artists, rendering several of the 20 songs barely recognisable in comparison with the originals. But such is the strength of Fela's music that even such singular-sounding artists as Macy Gray and Dead Prez get into the Afrobeat spirit of things. --Tad Hendrickson

Woodabe

Also on disk 6 is the Woodabe - Herdsmen of the sun documentary and Lessons of Darkness, both worth tracking down and watching.

Dersu Uzala

moviemail currently have a Akira Kurosawa sale on and amongst all his classics is his film Dersu Uzala which is only £9.99 and worth every penny so grab yourself a real bargain, you wont regret it. (You also get a free monthly magazine promoting world cinema dvd's and classic films)

Filmed in 70mm on location in the peaceful vastness of the Siberian ice desert, this is one of Kurosawa's most beautiful films as well as a tale of great humanity. It is based on the turn of the century journals of Tsarist officer, Vladimir Arseniev who meets and befriends the hunter Dersu Uzala, who in turn teaches him to survive in the wilderness. An academy award winner from 1975.

Rare John 'Lofty' Wiseman Video

Here's a torrent for an extremely rare vhs video from Mr Wiseman. It covers the same subjects as his new DVD i.e P.L.A.N, he is being interviewed by an American dude in a studio with cut scenes of John out in the field applying his skills. This was made in 1990 (round about then) and i believe it was a 2 video set (i could be wrong though). I payed £20 for a copy on ebay ages ago, it took me ages to find.
Anyway, this has been converted to DVD format hence the large file size (4.02GB). If you have any problems downloading this (lack of seeds) let me know as i have converted my copy onto the harddrive so i can create a torrent if needed.
I also have his new dvd but i'm only willing to post torrents of rare, hard to find and out of print stuff. The commercial stuff you can easily find yourself either on the web (legal or ilegal) or in shops, also, the indipendant video makers rely on the income of their DVD's to keep them doing the things we like to watch so if you like any of the DVD's i post then please buy them (links will be provided).
I am into trading Dvd's privately, get in touch if you want to do swaps etc
TRY BEFORE YOU BUY

John “Lofty” Wiseman should need little introduction, but for those who are new to survival, it would be difficult to believe that there is a serious survival training specialist in the world today who hasn’t read and learned from John “Lofty” Wiseman’s 'The SAS Survival Handbook'. First published in 1986, translated into 18 different languages and having sold approximately 2 million copies, it is undoubtedly the seminal written work on survival skills. Since the book's release, Lofty's work has shaped the way survival training is done the world over and through it he has taught and inspired many of today's experts who follow in his footsteps.
