The Sand Pebbles
Shot in Taiwan and Hong Kong, this film combines historical sweep and intimate human drama in several parallel stories, all revolving around U.S. Navy machinist's mate Jake Holman (Steve McQueen). Holman is a skillful but fiercely independent sailor who joins the "sand pebble" crew of the U.S.S. San Pablo, a Navy gunboat patrolling the Yangtze River on the eve of the Chinese revolution in 1926. The San Pablo's inexperienced captain (Richard Crenna) obsessively defends the Navy's mission--however unnecessary or unwanted--to protect American missionaries and businessmen, blind to the more dangerous implications of American involvement with China's opposing political factions. It's the story of China, a slumbering giant that rouses itself to the cries of it's people - and of the Americans who are caught in its bloody awakening.
The Chinese Connection aka Fist of Fury
When "The Chinese Connection" aka "Fist Of Fury" was released in Hong Kong in 1972, it had an even greater box office impact than Lee's first kung fu spectacular "The Big Boss". Once again, Chinese film fans flocked in their thousands to see this handsome, virile and athletic Chinese actor who wasn't afraid to say he was proud to be Chinese, but more than that, he throttled his Japanese adversaries and made them respect him and his Chinese kung fu. And when Bruce goes strolling into a park and is denied entrance due to a sign saying "No Dogs or Chinese Allowed", he vents his anger on mocking Japanese students, and then splinters the sign with a leaping front kick.

Zang Fu Organs - Overview
In preparation for our quiz next week, I whipped up this overview page on the Zang Fu Organs. I took the data from another website called tcm.health-info.org which seems to have the info layed out in a way that is very similar in progression to the way we are being taught. There are some extra bits in there to ignore, but overall I think a useful study aid.
