A term used to describe an extortion racket which flourished among the Southern Italian immigrants of the United States in the early 1900's.
A reputable "villainous gang' who thrived on a system of blackmailing bankers, business owners and merchants. Letters that threatened harm, arson or murder if a sum was not paid to the mob. The letter exhibited three black crosses surmounted by a skull and crossbones, sometimes fancifully decorated with dripping blood or bullets, signed off as Mano Nera or 'Black Hand'. Successful immigrants were usually targeted, as 90% of New Yorkers were Italian immigrants.

Little known defense in the game of "rock, scissors, paper". It is made by aiming the open palm of your hand at your opponent and curling the fingers to represent claws. The defense of tiger hand beats paper, but is defeated by both rock (which crushes tiger hand) and scissors (which stab tiger hand).
