As for the scoring, I thought Diaz won 1,2 and 5 like these other people tweeted.

Anyways, I was watching the show Live with Kelly and Jerry O’Connell was on there, so my wife and wondered what happened to him and his pick.  He chose Sarah Brice as his final one. They stayed together, then broke up, and then got together a second time, then eventually broke up in 2010.

The most recent update is Sarah Brice is newly engaged and pregnant.

Keeping it Reality:

It seems our reality stars are gradually taking over the media spotlight. Logging onto People.com, there are often more reality-related stories than stories about our regular celebs.

Our Bachelor/Bachelorette/Bachelor Pad trifecta alum couple, Peyton and Chris, will soon star in their own HGTV show. Going Yard will debut in the spring. With Chris and his landscaping team making over lucky recipients’ yards, fiancée Peyton will help plan a yard debut party.

Jillian’s season and Bachelor Pad 1 runner-up Kiptyn has been well taken care of by girlfriend Tenley, following his recent health scare. Severely ruptured discs in his neck were repaired with lengthy emergency spinal surgery, and Kiptyn is expected to make a full recovery.

Final One (or F1 as us nerdy Bach gurus refer to it) Sarah Brice, from Charlie O’Connell’s season, is newly engaged and pregnant with a boy. The less famous O’Connell brother and Sarah dated on and off in the years following their season’s live engagement, but could never seem to make it work. Obviously, she has moved on.

Do you believe this force was necessary for a man not resisting arrest with no weapon?  This is what cops get away with.  Thank goodness we have cameras everywhere including on their dash.

Henderson, NV (KTNV) – Henderson city leaders Tuesday approved a $158,500 settlement for a man in diabetic shock who was beaten by police.

The entire incident was caught by the dash cam of a Nevada Highway Patrol trooper involved in the chase.

According to the criminal complaint, police suspected the man of drunk driving and a chase ensued in the early morning hours of Oct. 29, 2010.

When the man is pulled from the car the dash cam video shows officers swarm and one Henderson officer assisting in the chase begins kicking. Delivering several strong blows to the man’s head.

The new Bachelor Ben Flajnik is engaged and the spoiler is already out. According to one article I read Bachelor Ben has hooked up with Courtney Robertson.

Hollywood Life:

Bachelorette Ashley Hebert may have broken Ben Flajnik‘s heart, but Ben found love again as The Bachelor. According to RealitySteve.com, Ben is engaged to Courtney Robertson.

Courtney received Ben’s final rose and proposal in Switzerland on Nov. 16, Reality Steve reports. Lindsey Cox was the runner up.

Out of the final four women — Lindsey, Courtney, Kacie Boguskie and Nicki Sterling — Kacie was sent home during the hometown dates. Nicky got eliminated after the overnight dates.

Courtney, 28, is a professional model that lives in Santa Monica, Calif. She was on the cover of Fitness magazine in April. She is originally from Scottsdale, Ariz.

“I’m a hopeless romantic,” Courtney says on her ABC bio page. “Love is my religion. I’m in love with love. All I want is to find the right guy and love him forever.”

Courtney describes her ideal mate, a.k.a. Ben, as “warm, caring, amazing, sense of humor, flirty, genuine, keeps me on my toes, sensitive and has depth.”

She played “almost every sport growing up” — and considers Christmas her favorite holiday.

“One year I got the puppy I wanted and my sister got a kitten,” Courtney recalls. “My parents made the holidays very special for us. I probably believed in Santa for way too long.”

I did see the computek punch output, but I don’t think that tells the whole story. If I could see the breakdown of punches landed per round, I get the feeling Diaz would come up as the winner.

Many MMA fighters were tweeting who they thought won the fight. It seems Matt Lindland and Cung Le scored the rounds the same way I did.

To start off, I like Condit because of the way he’s always fought. But I thought Diaz clearly won and it seems like a lot of actual fighters agree.

Matt Lindland
Great fight Diaz 1,2,5 Condit 3,4

Pat Miletich
That decision was an absolute joke. At best, Condit won 2 rounds

Mike Ciesnolevicz
Dan Hendo, Jens Pulver, Pat Miletich all world champs agree Diaz win. Good enough for me!! A lot of judges don’t even train

Josh Neer
Wow. Nick got robbed 4-1 Diaz. Carlos was doing the Forrest Gump

Daniel Cormier
Didn’t say it was a horrible decision. Just said I disagreed. Condit actually was running in the cage.

Ronda Rousey
If I wanted to see aman run for 25 minutes I’d go to a track meet. Diaz is the real champ, what a bullshit fight

Jens Pulver
IMO @nickdiaz209 had it 48-47.

Marloes Coenen
Round 3: Nick. Condit’s fighting strategy is so fucking annoying! I like men who fight like.. men. Not ones who dance like Billy Elliot

Cody McKenzie
Wow really goes to show you how bad these judges suck Carlos ran the entire time

Cesar Gracie also claims that “Chuck Liddell and Anderson Silva sitting ringside had Diaz winning. Champions know really who won.”

All the quotes taken from the fighters twitter accounts.

I didn’t watch the other fights, but based on what I read the UFC 143 was boring with all the main fights going to decision.

If you ever had a dog, cat or hamster as a pet, you wouldn’t think of them as food.  You think of them as a member of the family.  When my golden retrievers had passed away, I cried my eyes out.  They were a part of my family for almost 15 years after we rescued them from the local animal shelter.

It wasn’t until recently did I realize all animals can have personalities that you can grow to love.  So why do most people make the connection to some animals as pets but not as their food?

Getting back to the Bullying article, I think you might get some insight from reading it. Check it out below:

Huffington Post:

Here is the definition of the word bully: “A person who uses strength or power to harm or intimidate those who are weaker.” Many of us know firsthand what it’s like to be bullied. We know what it’s like to be vulnerable and scared, and to have that be taken advantage of. I never considered animals to be a part of that equation.

Then, a few years ago, a random discussion on a talk show led me to research factory farming, a practice that produces 99 percent of the animals we consume in the U.S. I not only read about the horrors of these places, but, thanks to countless undercover investigation videos posted online, I saw them. I saw baby calves being screamed at and punched in the face by desensitized farm workers. I saw turkeys being kicked and thrown against walls until their wings broke. A saw a baby pig having its head bashed in with a brick. These poor animals were being abused, tormented, and killed by merciless beings many times their size. They were being bullied.

Even though I was never in situations this extreme growing up gay, many LGBT people are. They are regularly verbally abused, physically assaulted, and even killed. And while there undoubtedly is a difference between people and animals, the question must be asked: when it comes to things such as fear, pain, and suffering, aren’t animals much more like us than they are not like us?

I know we all love a good burger or turkey sandwich, but isn’t our consumption of these foods perpetuating the power-hungry and cruel attitudes we so strongly oppose? Is it really such a stretch to ask that all those who feel be liberated from the suffering caused by bullying? Because whether you want to admit it or not, that’s precisely what it is. This realization, subconscious at the time, led me to become a vegan. By choosing to avoid animal foods, I feel I’m sending a strong message that I won’t be a party to bullying in any form.

I know it’s difficult to imagine giving up some of your favorite foods (you’ll discover new ones, trust me) but I invite you to learn the truth about where those foods come from. Really think about it. Sit with it. Be honest with yourself. Does knowing that you pay other people to treat animals this way feel good in your soul?

A brilliant writer, Laura Moretti, once said this about animals:

Animals are the most victimized living creatures on earth; more than children, more than women, more than people of color. Our prejudice enables us to exploit and use them, as scientific tools and expendable commodities, and to eat them. We do to them any atrocity our creative minds can summon. We justify our cruelties; we have to or we can’t commit them.

Chew on that.
