    Anyone watch UFC "Fight for the Troops" last night on Spike?

    That guy is a moron for not tapping. He lost the fight, there was no point in damaging his arm like that.

    Curing diseases vs. finding "better" ways to treat them

    You have a bleak perspective of science. The diabetes pharmaceutical industry is huge and the market will continue to grow to fit patient demands. If there was a pill to cure diabetes I guarantee that patients would sell off everything they have to rid themselves of the daily rituals (pin...

    Brock Lesnar's K-1/MMA debut

    I was at the fight, brock is a big boy the look on min soo kim when brock stepped into the ring was "wtf did I do to deserve this?" The Jonnie Morton knockout was awful, he was swinging for the fences and was just asking to get caught. Overall the event was pretty good, but an outdoor...

    Any mountain bikers out there?

    I have a 2005 Specialized Stumpjumper and it's an awesome bike and fairly priced for the component set that comes fitted. If you wait until the end of the season finding a heavily discounted bike is quite easy. Depending on your body type and how you like to ride, Specialized bikes though more...

    how much money do you need to live in Orange County CA

    Depending on your other expenses (car payments/loans) living in the OC isn't that bad with 50K, you will have to cut some corners but then again that's what you just have to do with that kind of salary. I can't imagine spending 900 dollars on "added expenses". The only thing expensive in the...

    Tank Abbott the all time greatest UFC fighter?

    "This was one of JediYoda's worst moments." Tank is a good brawler but definitely not the greatest fighter ever in the UFC. But man is that guy scary, definitely would not ever want to face him in the octagon.

    Should I get a macbook?

    I guess if you're a student you get a free ipod nano or 180 toward a different kind of ipod. Your comparison of a T42 vs a macbook seems off, I don't think they sell the t42 anymore and if you look at the t43 model it's considerably more expensive even at a student discount. Dollar for...

    *****OFFICIAL "ENTOURAGE RULES!11!1!!" Thread*****

    A more practical result will be Ari's wife leaving him, why wouldn't she? She has the trust fund, Ari needs her more than she needs him at this point. To see her get with one of the boys would be weird, if this were to happen I'd put my money on Vince.

    GRE prep and exam

    I took the computer based test last November, I scored 620 verbal, 800 math, 6 essay. Practice tests really helped, not just taking it leisurely but sitting down for 4 hours and cranking it out. Kaplan and Princeton books are good for their brushups on strategies and timing. The GRE books put...

    YAMBT: Worth the extra money for disc brakes

    I personally don't like the ride of Trek bikes too much, I prefer Specialized; they tend to have better components. For the 4300 pricerange ~350-400 you may want to look at the hardrock or rockhopper. As for disc brakes, it's personal preference. Most of the riding I do is uphill on dirt/mud...

    C's get degrees B's get PhD's, it all depends on your field of study, for biology the last thing you need to worry about is grades, it's all about publications.
