>From the BBC News web site:

"A knife-wielding robber met his match when he tried to steal money
from a shopkeeper trained in karate.
The man ran into the Edinburgh shop owned by Mohammed Afzah, 39, a
former bodyguard for the prime minister of Pakistan, and demanded
money.

"Mr Afzah immediately adopted his martial arts stance and shouted "I'm
ready - come on" at his assailant.

"The would-be thief turned on his heels and fled empty-handed from the
shop during the raid at 2100 BST on Sunday.

"Mr Afzah, who was born in Pakistan, spent eight years in the
country's security police."

Sounds like turning and running away was a real *real* good idea! :-)
