MIRACLE PREMATURE TWIN BABIES LEAD TO BIRTH OF WEBSITE
Kim Rowley, Pierce, Nebraska, gave birth to premature twin daughters in 1994. Mrs. Rowley turned to numerous resources to obtain information about twinship and prematurity. She has now compiled her findings for other parents at http://www.preemietwins.org .
Macy and Mallory Rowley were born over three months before their due-date weighing in at two pounds each, and according to Mrs. Rowley “had everything go wrong that could go wrong”. Rowley’s main inspiration was the book “The Premature Baby Book” by Helen Harrison. Between the two babies, they had almost every complication mentioned in Harrison’s book. The girls spent over six months in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit in Omaha, Nebraska.
Mrs. Rowley did extensive reading offline about prematurity and parenting multiples, but it wasn’t easy finding all of the information she was wanted to inquire about. Eventually Rowley had internet access, and found “surfing the net” relaxing from the stress of taking care of high-maintenance babies at home. (The babies required in-home nursing care due to being on heart monitors, oxygen tanks, nebulizer machines and multiple medicines.) The Internet became Rowley’s next big source for information and designing websites became a hobby.
Thus the birth of www.preemietwins.org ; Rowley hopes that her research she has compiled, and continues to compile, will help other parents of multiples and/or parents of premature infants, so they can learn a vast amount of information from one source. Other websites that Rowley has designed can be found at www.kimrowley.com .
You will find Macy and Mallory’s “NICU story” also on the website, along with dozens of other stories from parents who visited the website and shared their story. You will read that Macy and Mallory, despite their rough start, are indeed miracle babies and doing well today.

KARATE KIDZ ONLINE TEAMS UP WITH TWIN DRAGONS KUNG FU AND KICKBOXING
August 9, 2002
New York and Toronto... Karate Kidz Online a division of UCW Entertainment announced today that they made an alliance with Toronto based Martial Arts group Twin Dragons Kung Fu and Kickboxing in an effort to bring self defense techniques to the growing number of children that are in danger of being victimized.
Twin Dragons is operated by the world renowned Twin Dragons Michael and Martin McNamara. The same Twin Dragons that launch a $37mm lawsuit against Miramax Film Corp, Alliance Production Ltd and Front Row Entertainment for trademark and copyright infringement in usiing the name "Twin Dragons" in the Jackie Chan Movie "Twin Dragons". Twin Dragon Kung Fu & Kickboxing has been in existence for the past 30 years, 30 years dominating the kickboxing scene in North America. Michael and Martin McNamara have set the standard for quality in Kick-Boxing training and continue to uphold its merits in health, fitness and self-defense.
The Twins have not only dominated the action in the gym, but as promoters as well with several World Title cards under their belts. The Twin Dragons have been featured in the MARTIAL ARTS FEATURES & PROFILES magazine (December Volume 4, Issue 2) with an in-depth article on the Twins Michael and Martin McNamara.
After several years of experience, the Twins advanced to the point of being two of the first non-Orientals in North America to be awarded the Masters Red Sash. With this stature, the Twins opened the first of their Twin Dragon schools (there are now eight) in Willowdale. That was twenty-five years ago! Some of the original members were Louie Gulliani and Dave Paul, who are still with the club. They are now teachers with their own Twin Dragon clubs, and continue to maintain the high standards of the Twin Dragon organization.
The Karate Kidz Online website, www.karate-kidz.com , is dedicated to featuring young martial artist and the teachers that mold them. When Karate Kidz Online was launched it was initially set up to profile young martial artist and their teachers in the New York Metropolitan area, but due to the demand from organizations in other states "KKO" went national in June 2002.
Recently the demand has been so great that we have enter into the international arena, we are set to profile young martial artist from around the world in hopes of showing the youth of the world that they can do better for themselves. We feel that setting good examples for the youth will let them know that there is more to life than what they see on their local street corner.
KKO's Main objective is to draw the attention of the youths on a global scale and give them an opportunity to enter a world where they can see other kid's accomplishments through martial arts, this gives them an even rarer opportunity of seeing that life for them can be more than what they see on the street corners. They can visit kids worldwide, interact with them, learn about the history of martial arts and give them a chance to look into a world that can change their lives for the better and they have access to all of this online at www.karate-kidz.com.
We feel that by offering self defense techniques on www.karate-kidz.com that it would allow our young visitors to learn some techniques that may help them if ever they were in a position that they had to use them. We at Karate Kidz Online, UCW Entertainment, Inc and Twin Dragons Kung Fu & Kickboxing feel that its our responsibility as well as every adults responsibility to be the protectors of our children and do just that protect them. WE can never forget that the children are our future and we all have to do our part.
KKO is a proud supporter of the White House Office of National Drug Policy, which is the arm of the White House that puts out the Anti-Drug campaign. With drugs, violence, abductions, and gangs being a big part of a growing problem with the youth not only in the USA but around the world, we offer them a peek into a world that can change their lives forever.
KKO welcomes all martial arts inquiries, photo submissions, article submissions as we as suggestions. We also welcome articles and photos from outside the martial arts world, anything that can give hope to the children of the world. We offer links to a vast array of youth activities, help lines for drugs and child abuse.

BURNSVILLE, MN January 2003- You have probably heard of HBO’s “Sex in the City.” Soon, thanks to The Matchmaking Connection, the Twin Cities will air it’s very own tamed down version - “Dating in the Cities.”
The owner and matchmaker of The Matchmaking Connection Andrea Johnson along with model and graphic artist Michael Hnida will host “Dating in the Cities”. The two will discuss dating life in the Twin Cities.
“Dating can be very hard or very fun. We’re trying to make dating in the Twin Cites fun by educating Twin Cities singles on how to date more effectively,” Johnson says. “We’ll give dating tips, talk about what’s going on in the Cities, give restaurant and movie reviews and we will interview local singles on their dating experiences.”
Johnson says she is conducting several dating surveys, with the results to be discussed on “Dating in the Cities.” “The first survey focuses on how singles find dates,” she said. Where’s the most likely spot to find people to date, what pick-up lines work and how do you approach someone you would like to meet are just a few of the question on the survey.
Look for “Dating in the Cities” to air on your local cable access station in March.
