It was a quite day in a small Bar in upstate New York . The girl working behind the bar was young, she had just turned Nineteen and had only been bar tending a few weeks, this was her first time working alone. Everything was going fine with only two of the regulars in the back shooting pool it was nothing she could not handle she thought to herself.

Then the front door opened and in walked ten of the biggest men she had ever seen. They talked loudly and as they walked over to the far side of the bar, She got a look at the back of their jackets. She could easily see that the markings on them where all the same. The men ordered pitchers of beer and their talking only got louder as they drank more and talked about things she did not understand. Then the men went quite as the front door opened and in walked seven more large men, at first she thought these seven men where with the first Ten as they looked and dressed similar but as she looked at the markings on the backs of these new comers Jackets she could tell while they where similar the markings where different, By the way the two groups where looking at each other she guessed the difference must mean a lot to them.

The Seven men sat up toward the front of the bar and also ordered pitchers of beer. The young girl did her best to make sure both groups where kept happy, but it was just a matter of time and Beer! When one of the men from the first group called out to her, “Hey Honey don’t worry about those guys, there losers! Come over here and hang with some real men.” That was all it took, the fuse was lit. “Who you calling losers pal we are good enough to beat you any day of the week!” Yelled back a guy from the second group. “You may think your as good as us but you never will be!” Yelled back a man from the first group.

Then in what was a blur to our young barmaid a fight broke out between the two groups it was loud and she could hear glass and wood breaking all around her as the men cursed and screamed at each other. This young Girl was scared and she feared for her life.

Her fear abated a little when in the distance she heard sirens. The police are coming, she thought to herself as she hid behind the bar. The police arrived in force and they stormed in arresting the men and taking them away. When things got quite and all the men where taken away the young girl looked around the small bar. So much damage she thought to herself, She looked at one of the officers and asked how did you know to come here. We got a call that these two groups where both heading to this bar and we just knew, it happens all the time with these type of guys!!!

Epilogue: The next morning when the young barmaid awoke she walked down stairs to the kitchen where her father was reading the morning paper. Does it say anything about the fight in the bar yesterday she asked her father? Yes he said as he pointed to a small article in the back of the paper “Yankees and Mets fans Brawl it out in small town bar” the story went on to explain how all the men where given tickets for disorderly conduct and released. That’s it she screamed at her father these men trash the bar, scare the hell out of me, They should all be in jail and all they get is Tickets!!! Calm down sweetheart her father said as he hugged her, The way your acting one would think it had been a bunch of rowdy Bikers in the bar yesterday! Those Guys would have been locked away, But it was only Sports fans!

Renato Babalu Sobral defeated Bobby Southworth by TKO to become Strikeforce light heavyweight champion in the co-main event of the promotions ‘Destruction’ card. Despite leaving with the belt around his waist, it wont be the centerpiece of Babalu’s highlight reel with the way it transpired.

A -350 wagering favorite despite his challenger status, Sobral was expected to use his world class Brazilian Jiu Jitsu skills and vast experience against superior competition to dominate the tough but limited Southworth. It didnt happen that way, as Southworth easily got the better of things in the first round. Southworths style isnt exactly one that provides Wanderlei Silva type excitement–he looks to use his strength and conditioning to control his opponent en route to a decision victory. While the result makes him something of a MMA equivalent to boxing’s John Ruiz, it does afford him the best chance of victory.

The first round displayed Southworth’s style in microcosm, with much of the frame spent pushing Babalu up against the cage or on the ground inside his guard not really doing much. Sobral did get a clinch against the cage wall and rocked Southworth with a hard elbow strike that not only busted his nose but opened a huge cut over his right eye.

Upon seeing the gusher of blood Referee John McCarthy brought the ringside physician over to take a look. The doctor took some time to examine the cut, but eventually the round resumed following the consultation with only a few seconds remaining. As Southworth’s corner futilely worked on the gaping wound during the break the doctor once again took a look and better realizing the severity and placement of the cut recommended to McCarthy that the fight be stopped. The veteran official complied, awarding Sobral the TKO victory and the championship belt.

The other half of the co-main event was decided in much more decisive fashion as Scott Smith knocked out well traveled veteran Terry Martin in a mere :24 seconds. Martin didn’t adequately close the distance against a fighter dubbed ‘Hands of Steel’ and was caught with a perfectly placed punch that knocked him out cold.

In the semifinal event, Duane ‘Bang’ Ludwig defeated Yves Edwards by unanimous decision in a very closely contested bout. Edwards was originally slated to face lightweight champion Josh Thomson until a toe injury necessitated his withdrawal. Ludwig took the fight on two weeks notice, and after a takedown clinic by Edwards in the first began to control the fight with his superior standup skills. Edwards’ superiority on the ground in the first two frames wasnt enough to sway the judges who obviously favored Ludwig’s more effective striking.

Earlier in the evening, Kim Couture made short work of overmatched Lina Kvokov as she TKOd her foe in 1:44 of the first round. Couture, the wife of UFC legend Randy Couture, gained even more notoriety for the courage she displayed in her professional debut last June. After having her jaw broken early in the first round, she refused to throw in the towel and went the distance despite a horrific injury. She had a much easier time here”despite the fact that both fighters entered with 0-1 records Couture was significantly more polished as she put Kvokov on the defensive from the outset with her sharp punching combinations. Kvokov kept displaying the rookie mistake of trying to turn away from Couture’s blows. The reprieve was only temporary, however, as Couture launched another barrage of punches prompting the referee to step in and wave off the non-competitive affair.

This means no more reading glasses at the dinner table. It’s a brilliant development, but one that has a new permutation.

Welcome to multifocal lenses. These contacts are taking something old and spinning it into something new. You no longer need the frames. These contacts are fitted like any other pair of contacts, except for the fact that your reading prescription is etched into the lenses. This means you can look down and access a more powerful prescription for reading the fine print.

If you’re fond of glasses, then enjoy your bifocals. But if you’re keen on living a more active lifestyle, and don’t want to have to deal with reading glasses, then these multifocals are essential. Even with conventional glasses, working out or exercising is tough to do. They slide, the fall, they break, they get scratched.

Contacts are perfect for anyone in love with sweating. If glasses hate anything more than steam, it’s sweat. Sweat breaks own the finish of most glasses, so that after a few years, the arms of the glasses tend to get stained white. To be sure, contact lenses don’t last for more than a year, but replacing them is well worth the price.

Fancy going a few rounds at the local YMCA? Try wearing your glasses while you’re boxing. Nice try. So, now you can opt for contacts and still stave off reading glasses with these multifocal beauties. Go from the ring to the showers to the restaurant without more than a shower and change of clothes. Care to order for madam? Of course you do — and you don’t even have to hold the menu at arm’s length to catch the specials.

Unleash the Muhammad Ali inside of you with a custom pair of multifocal lenses. Lose the glasses and release a custom you.

Pain while urinating and blood in your urine are often a signs of a UTI (Urinary Tract Infection). UTIs are usually the result of bacteria in your urine. How the bacteria ends up in your urinary tract systems is not always clear but some people are more prone to frequent UTIs than others. Many UTIs can be treated naturally.

It’s no secret that one of the fastest growing problems in today’s society is obesity. More and more people today are getting fatter and fatter. And because of our lifestyles, and the food choices we have before us, this problem is not going to go away unless we make a concerted conscious effort on a personal level.

If take a good hard look at all of the endless schemes and pills and diet plans out there, you can’t help but to come to the conclusion that are basically two ways, and only two ways to lose weight. Diet, and exercise. In this article I’ll give you some tips to get started to make losing weight as painless and natural as possible.

To begin with, try and stop thinking about losing weight as some horribly painful “event” that you can grit your teeth and get over with as quickly as possible, like visiting your in-laws or paying your taxes. Losing weight and keeping it off requires a much more subtle, and long lasting approach.

So it helps tremendously to think in terms of overall eating habits. If you are overweight, then your eating habits probably aren’t as healthy as they could be. Instead of making drastic changes that would require incredible amounts of willpower, make slower, more gradual ones. This way they’ll have a much higher likelihood of sticking.

What changes can you make? Start by eating foods that fill you up, and won’t make you hungry in an hour or so. This means more proteins, and good fats, and less simple carbohydrates like bread and sugar based snacks.

By making smart eating choices, and slowly incorporating them into your lifestyle, an interesting thing usually happens. You will build up incredible momentum that will actually allow you to lose quite a bit of weight. Once you have momentum on your side, you will easily get to the size and weight that you want.
