UFC 91 Brock Lesnar phantom punch on Randy Couture?
Seeing the fight in slow motion close up Randy Couture takes a dive after Lesnar misses with 2 punches, is MMA fake?
Er.. No. Brock Lesnar connected straight to Randy’s temple, and that’s what took him out. Absolutely nothing about MMA is fake.
DarkLight05 | Nov 19, 2008
If you watch it on a high quality stream (not crappy Youtube or something), you can clearly see the punch hitting the side and towards the back of Randy’s head. Lesnar’s hands are the size of cinderblocks (well, ok, ALMOST the size of cinderblocks) and it doesn’t take much for something of that size to produce tremendous force. Also, even I could probably knock Randy down if I hit him on that spot (back of the ear), and I weigh about 190lbs. Imagine what kind of damage 280lbs Brock Lesnar would do.

no MMA is real i saw the fight on paper view lesnar connected
Mykie | Nov 19, 2008
at best the punch hit the top back part of randys head not a known knockdown point but who is to say, the heavyweight division of UFC definately needed an injection of interest and who better for Randy to pass the baton to? I watched the fight with a mate in Australia on Main Event and we do not agree on anything BUT we both failed to see the reason for the initial knockdown, after that Brock clumsily hammered his way to victory…………………………very suss
David F | Nov 19, 2008
I thought a F5 was coming next, but Randy would not get up because Randy’s head and face was being used like a basketball.
celebrate_me_home_2000 | Nov 19, 2008
yeah I thought its just my imagination that Randy just dropped like that. I thought those punches are too soft for that result.
But watch it again, there are three hits which Brock made before Randy fell. One is a left to the jaw which is partially block. The second is what I think dropped Randy. Its a right elbow to the temple/ear of Randy. I though it was a soft right, but when i saw where the elbow was, dang thats it, that pain. The third is a left which is also soft, because Randy is on his way down by then.
Based on the time when Brock hit Randy with an elbow in the earlier parts of round two, thats the same elbow which stunned Randy. That elbow is mean. watch it again dude. Hope you catch it.

i don’t think mma is fake but i agree with you about the phantom punch
"GoSANE" | Nov 19, 2008
YOUR AN IDIOT
THAT PUNCH CRUSHED HIM
timmyocean | Nov 19, 2008
this keeps coming up and while I don’t think that Couture threw the fight, there are some that use this as a reason:
http://mmamania.com/2008/08/04/randy-cou ture-vs-ufc-legal-battle-to-unfold-in-la s-vegas/
It is no secret that Couture wanted out of the UFC but he has more class than to throw a fight. I think he may have slipped or that the punch that got him was fillmed at an off angle and was not able to get up on time, it happens all the time.
karatescientist | Nov 19, 2008
Watch again. Being hit behind the ear messes up your central nervous system, which is where Randy got hit.
No, MMA is not fake. No, it wasn’t a "phantom" punch.
callsignfuzzy | Nov 19, 2008
You sound really stupid or naive when you make comments like this!! You really need to talk with someone in MMA or even a doctor….they will tell you that the area Randy was hit in(behind the ear) is a bad spot to get hit and will cause you to get "knocked-out"!! Watch the fight again and try not to make such a stupid comment again.Brock’s punches are VERY powerful!
elvisdan77 | Nov 19, 2008
Still trying to make excuses??? Lesnar owns the UFC. get on bored or keep blogging from your moms basement while you j*rk it to randy coutures poster.
Brock Owns UFC | Nov 19, 2008
Couture took a dive. He was easily connecting with Lesnar in stand up, and realized he might accidentally knock him out, so he immediately goes to the clinch and pretends to be taking Brock (who is completely gassed and looking at the clock.)down. Couture tries none of his legendary striking in the clinch and lets Brock take him down. If you watch boxing you would know that a knock out punch always involves head movement from the opponent signifying a punch that connects, (NOT grazing). Couture’s head has absolutely no head movement, and he just falls straight down (no backward movement, indicating striking force to his body). Couture is obviously still very active on the ground were Lesnar starts throwing some fakey ass WWE shortest hammer fist that I have ever seen. Plenty of WWE practice I guess. Every one knows about the deal with Dana White and Randys contract, so I won’t go into that. Anyways I always respected Randy, but sorry U blew it Randy. A fighter throwing a fight is a FN coward. U should have just beat Lesnar and knocked Dana White out after the fight. Doesnt matter Lesnar loses his next fight unless Dana finds some hight school kids to fight him for the next year like he likes to do. UFC has become a Pile of SH__!. Rampage kicked Forrest a__! ALSO BY THE WAY. BYE UFC. U WILL NEVER GET ANOTHER DIME FROM ME. Please don’t watch this Sh__! unless it’s free. Also its sad the top fighters get paid like 50k fight. and UFC pay per view has surpassed Boxing and all other ppv events as well I believe.

What's a good way to invest that will allow me access to my money?
I’m requesting a surrender of an annuity fund and would like to invest it to earn the best interest. See, it’s a college fund my great-grandparents set up for me and when they died, my grandmother took control of it. She’s never been smart with money and set it up in an annuity….which I cannot withdraw from without being heavily penalized until I’m 59! Who is paying for college at that age? I need that money now. So I’m accepting the heavy taxing, federally and by the company, just so I can get the money out of there. But I’m lost on what to do now. I don’t want to just put it into a savings account.
What is a good way to invest it that will allow me access to it. In other words, where is a place I can put it where it will earn good interest and I don’t have to wait until I’m nearly 60 to get it?
An Account with a company such as Fidelity. Invest in no load mutual funds and access to your money without penalty
Really | Feb 02, 2010
When you say you need the money now, how much how fast? If you need to spend it all in the short term, a savings acount is the most liquid, but earns the least interest. If you can wait for a year for some of it, you can look into CDs, time them to expire just before you need the money.
I wouild stay away from stocks in your case. Although the return can be great, there is risk also, and you could lose your money.

Computer Guy | Feb 02, 2010
if it is an annuity invested in stocks and shares this may not be a good time to surrender it, the market is low.
can you borrow at the bank using the annuity as security? it depends how much it is.
the amount that the annuity company charges you might be reduced if you ask nicely, or if you only withdraw a part of the funds.
would it be possible to transfer the annuity within the same company to one which pays you interest, that might escape charges
keni | Feb 02, 2010
Because this is qualified money, you should be able to put it in a 529 college savings plan which is also qualified money, and you will be able to use it for your college tuition.
dsacorn | Feb 02, 2010
When you open a Scottrade account, you get a Visa debit card and a check book. You can spend/withdraw liquid funds immediately. I think they charge INTEREST for 3 days while the transaction clears, as if they loaned you the money for 3 days.
INTEREST? ING claims to have a 7% fixed annuity. Depending on how much you have and how much risk you can accept, I would buy shares of Berkshire Hathaway — Warren Buffett’s company.
Buffett’s historic return has been 18.1%. He’s in his 80s but I think he’s laid a solid foundation.
tolstoi1 | Feb 02, 2010
Putting someone in an annuity as a college fund is a bad idea yes. Who sold this to your grandma?
Was it sold to her as a college savings plan? If so, she and maybe you have recourse against the insurance rep and the firm for false and misrepresentation of an investment.
You can further claim that if the annuity was sold with the intent for college planning, then the invest may be deed "unsuitable" (SEC Rule 405, other rules); because you would need access to the funds at college and not at retirement. A 529 Plan would have been a better choice between the two.
529 Plan
http://www.sec.gov/investor/pubs/intro52 9.htm
Now, I don’t usually recommend people sue, but this is a royal screw up that should be investigated by compliance and by a securities attorney. You can usually get consultation with one for free.
If the money is say $15,000 or less the attorney prob won

What song will be the ending song on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows movie part 1 & 2?
i think it should be a song sung by Leona Lewis (from the Avatar Soundtrack), Enya (from Lord of the Rings), or Gabriel Mann and Rebecca Knuehbuhl (from Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon). i personally think the ending of the movie should be an epic song!

I got a science question see if you scientists can answer them?
Nemo is trying to swim up stream to be found… again. He pushes forward with a force of 2 N. The Stream pushes back on him with a force of 2 N.
a. Draw in the forces. (If possible attach a photo)
b. Are the forces balanced or unbalanced? ____________________
c. Will he accelerate? ___________ If so, n which direction?_____________
The forces cancel out, no net force or direction
Funk Master | Feb 01, 2010
This isn’t hard.
A force of 2N in one direction, a force of 2N in the opposite direction. Sounds balanced to me.
And if the water is pushing him back with the same force he is swimming, he isn’t moving (not accelerating or decelerating, not in any direction).
poldi | Feb 01, 2010
This is one of Newtons laws of Motion. Since Nemo is swimming at a force of 2N and is being pushed back at a force of 2N, then he hasn’t gone anywhere. He isn’t moving.
Based on this, I think you can draw your own diagram.
V9 | Feb 01, 2010
You just asked what 2-2 equals. The force exerted by the fish when accounting the force of the water is equal to zero, but one cannot be sure that he will not accelerate, for there might be outside forces acting upon said fish; causing it to either accelerate or decelerate. In a perfectly controlled environment, however, Nemo would still accelerate; the direction being towards the Earth due to gravity.

What do you think of my writing?
Silence of the Elephants
In Africa, on a serene prairie, there once lived a small elephant family and a giraffe. The elephants, Clare, Dave, and John, enjoyed their lives together with their best friend Molly. They had everything they could ever want in their peaceful home, and there were not many things that they had to worry about. In that time, the early 1900s, there were not any loud cars or bustling cities to disturb them. However, there was something they had to be afraid of.

What connections are there between Shakespeare's plays Hamlet, Macbeth, Rome & Juliet, The Tempest, and MSND?
Basically i have to write a 12 page paper on the writing style of william shakespeare and and show it using those five plays
Well, his writing style is Iambic pentameter, he used puns, foreshadowing and irony. If you have to use all of these plays then that means you are going to have to read these plays in order to make the connections between them. You will have to find the writing style within the pieces themselves so that you can find the right lines to use within your paper as quotes to support your evidence of his writing style.
I would do a little research on his writing style and start reading. He uses several different literary devices. You can use the above that I mentioned in the first sentence, but you can also compare the themes and characters within the plays too. Look for the main ideas in each play.

RV (2006)
IMDB rating: 5.50
Plot: Bob Munro is the dad of a dysfunctional family. He hires an RV to take the family on vacation. However Bob is NOT the best RV steering wheel operator in the neighborhood and the hilarity is added on by the fact that the brakes are about as useful as a chocolate fireguard. Bob first realizes it when the RV rolls (not literally) backwards into a line of shopping carts. Also Bob’s job is in danger if he doesn’t go to a very important meeting. Before you can say “COME BACK! COME BACK!,” things go gloriously, hilariously, Munro-annoyingly wrong due to the lack of brakes, Bob’s job, toilet waste not cleared out from the last rental and more hilarious stuff.

Both are quite funny.

Female heroines.
Fashion…
Humor…
I mean, they are similar books. Which would you choose?
Defo Confessions of a Shopaholic. I love all of Sophie Kinsella books and I am reading Twenties Girl at the moment. I also seen on her web site that she is writing another Confessions of a Shopaholic<<<< Can’t wait!
Hope I helped x

Road House (1989)
IMDB rating: 5.40
Plot: Dalton is an expert “cooler” — a barroom bouncer who can break up fights without getting himself killed in the process. Frank Tilghman, the owner of the Double Deuce in Jasper, Missouri, has hired Dalton away from a bar in Memphis, because Tilghman needs someone who can handle the nightly outbreaks of violence at the Double Deuce, and teach the rest of the Double Deuce’s bouncers how to handle it. There’s even a cage protecting the bar’s band from the customers. The band is led by Dalton’s old friend Cody, who is blind. Dalton is injured on his first night on the job and is treated by Elizabeth “Doc” Clay, the local doctor. Dalton and Doc soon fall in love with each other, and this angers Brad Wesley, a crime boss that Doc was once involved with — and may still be involved with. Wesley is also responsible for a lot of the violence at the Double Deuce, and for some time, Wesley has had the sheriff in his pocket, giving him complete control of the town of Jasper. Wesley is out to get rid of Dalton, who has already made some friends in Jasper — Dalton has rented a room from a man named Emmet, and has befriended local auto parts store owner Red Webster, and has also befriended Pete Stroudenmire, the owner of Stroudenmire Ford, a local car dealership. Wesley, who wants money from these people, has his henchmen burn down Red’s store, run a big foot truck through the showroom of Pete’s dealership, and set Emmet’s home on fire. Dalton is pleasantly surprised when his mentor and old friend, legendary cooler Wade Garrett, arrives in town and helps him beat up the guys who are vandalizing Tilghman’s liquor shipment because Wesley wants to be the one to supply Tilghman’s liquor, and take money from Tilghman. A couple of days after Wade’s arrival, Wesley has Wade murdered in order to get a point across to Dalton. In retaliation, Dalton storms Wesley’s mansion, with every intention of freeing the town from Wesley.
