Vital Points/Pressure Points of the body.?

Question

Can anyone send me links besides wikipedia about the pressure points and vital points of the body plz? And can anyone tell me about pressure points and where and such plz?

Pressure points for both self defense and healing i guess.

But mostly for self defense. There's sometimes people in the streets that are walking early in the morning when I walk to school and they stare at me, one asked me for a lighter (i don't smoke, so i wouldn't have one. And I don't know what could happen if i say no). I just want to know these for safety precautions. I also took martial arts before (but dropped out because my parents said that the school wasn't teaching much) , so I know that martial arts is only for defense.

I meant by "...so i know..." that I know that martial arts is only used for self defensive purposes. I am also not the type to pick on people.

There is no way to know how many pressure points are in the body but through my experiments and accidents i have found that there are at least 20 or more on the face ,head and neck area alone the reason why i know this is because i've had to resort to using these to defend myself when challenged with a person bigger than me in build and height /weight or more skilled .But that is another story the most effective pressure points (pp from now on) are situated in the face/neck area being if you want heal or harm defend or incapassitate the upmost important pp is the temperal lobe "why ?" you ask is because there is a huge artery that passes across this thin layer of skin and bone and prolonged blocking of this pp will induce very alarming effects such as black-outs (is most common due to a lucky strike) disorentation even loss of senses due to last effect and if struck and blocked or severd death but on the flip-side this pp has its advantages ,through GENTEL malipulation can sooth a sore head by rubbing or placing warm towel or pack against it to improve the blood flow .Another is the upper lip ,i know it sounds weird but there is a cluster of nerve endings here so effectivly i have used this to my advantage also just under both ears there is a recess between the jaw and the skull where the muscle is ,they are just a few pp's in the face/neck area if you want a more detailed discussion email me and i will be more than happy to help you .One more thing take it easy with these because i hurt myself badly and i'm not afraid to say it hurt alot every time i even thought about moving ,so think about the person you are defending against aswell .p.s pp's differ from each person i,e a musculy person would be more prone to pp than a fat person ,and just striking or holding a pp might not be enough a shrap shock would be best to disturb the blood flow.

hitting the stomach it would cause massive blood loss and person you slowly bleed, same if liver or any other vital organ hit. Hitting a vital organ death would ensue, like the heart. If death not immediate then infection, shock, blood loss would kill person. Shoulder wound would also cause massive blood loss, bone splintering could also cause damage. A single bullet could kill if it damaged major artery, vital organ, infection would then kill if no medical intervention.
