DNV GL, the world's leading ship classification society and one of the world's leading risk and sustainability service providers, is celebrating a double milestone: The Foundation DNV's 150th anniversary and DNV GL's first year as a merged company. To mark the 150th anniversary of Det Norske Veritas (DNV) and the one year anniversary of its merger with Germanischer Lloyd (GL), DNV GL is hosting a prestigious event in Oslo today. Over 1000 guests, made up of dignitaries, government officials and top industry figures and customers, will be present. "Created from two highly respected companies with parallel histories spanning 150 years (GL was itself formed only three years later) we want to celebrate our legacy but at the same time we are using the occasion to look forward," says Henrik O. Madsen, President & CEO of the DNV GL Group. "We want to use the celebrations to create dialogue with our stakeholders on what we expect to be a period of significant change ahead. These dialogues will be structured round anniversary events throughout the year, and focus on a range of sustainability issues. We have been moving in this direction for some time, but we need to have sustainability even more in focus. The anniversary events – and related activities – mark a step in this direction." Overseeing the anniversary celebrations will be Tore Høifodt, DNV GL Group media director and project manager for the global anniversary events. He said, "We are celebrating a big anniversary this year and with nearly three centuries of joint experience, we are determined to use the occasion not only to look back, but also look forward. We want to be seen as an organization that helps find and develop sustainable solutions, and develop globally recognized standards and procedures – all in an effort to make our customers operate safer, smarter and greener." In addition to the anniversary event, DNV GL is organizing a sustainability roundtable session which will bring together established leaders from the likes of the UN and the EU with influential youth activists, NGOs, media commentators, academics and business voices. Also, in collaboration with its partner Sustainia and an international alliance of companies and organisations, DNV GL will present a study which maps leading sustainability innovation in key societal sectors. Titled Sustainia100, the guide showcases sectors, companies, jobs and products that help to create a future of sustainable growth.

Cassini Sheds Light On Cosmic Particle Accelerators Pasadena CA (JPL) Feb 21, 2013 During a chance encounter with an unusually strong blast of solar wind arriving at Saturn, the international Cassini spacecraft detected particles being accelerated to ultra-high energies, similar to the acceleration that takes place around supernova explosions. Shock waves are commonplace in the universe, for example in the aftermath of a stellar explosion as debris accelerates outwards in a supernova remnant, or when the flow of particles from the Sun - the solar wind - impinges on the magneti ... read more |

Today we are utterly spoiled with our video iPods and portable MP3 and video players - always looking for something smaller with a better picture and better sound - but there was a time when having a "personal TV" meant lugging around a hefty machine. The PanaPana, a colorful and curvy personal TV, which made it big in 1972, was perhaps, the video iPod or Zen player of yesteryear.
While the PanaPana was about 50 times the size of the original iPod - which was no Tiny Tim itself - it was quite innovative in its day. For more PanaPana photos, just read more
The popularity of "handheld TVs" didn't make it big until the late 1970s and early 1980s, when the first pocket-sized TV, called the MTV-1, was released. Of course, Sony released the first Watchman in the 80s and soon every businessman and hipster needed their very own handheld TV. And to think, now we can watch TV shows on our teeny tiny cell phones. We've come a long way baby.

Think New Orleans Message Board › new space, possible location for meetup?
kevin |
greetings all,
I am in the final stages of singing the lease on a commercial/residential space that will be housed on magazine street in the garden district. I intend to use the front space for private events. I am working directly with the photo, video, arts, fashion, and entertainment industry (with more to come). I would love to host a regular meetup there to help brainstorm about what future events could be hosted for the benefit of improving the New Orleans community. as well as to help network the services I will be working with. as all becomes official, I will be more than happy to offer my services (and the services of others I am working with) at a reduced rate, to help promote the local business of all involved parties. watch the message board, and I will keep you informed as things progress. look forward to the potential. Kevin Smith Terra Incognita (Nonpareil Productions). |
kevin |
here is the websight I have developed so far. Terra Incognita
only slight setback is my partner who was scheduled to invest part of the money for the deposit ($895) is having cold feet. so if anyone out there has the ability to invest (loan, to be paid back in 30 days) in making this venture a reality, please do so ASAP. I am scheduled to sign the lease wends morning, but will be unable to do so, unless the remaining investment comes through. Kevin |

National News
Police say the sudden death of a young boy in the small town of Raetihi two weeks ago is suspicious.
Antony Christensen was found dead at his home on December 7 by a family member.
"Preliminary results from testing showed prescription medicine in his system," Detective Senior Sergeant Keith Borrell said.
"These are only initial findings and we are not in a position at this stage to say what caused the death of Antony as we are waiting on final test results."
The investigation was continuing.
"We are still in the process of interviewing Antony's family who have been helpful. However, we still want to hear from anyone who may have some information on his last movements."
Locals in the township were shocked about the boy's death.
Jayesh Patel, owner of the Raetihi Pricecutters Foursquare, said the news affected all 800 residents.
''Everyone knew the boy because it's a small town. We were shocked, we couldn't believe it would happen to him. Everyone's feeling shocked.
''He would come in every evening and every morning to my store from school. He was a very good student at Raetihi Primary School. He was fantastic, a well-behaved boy. He was a nice kid.''

Find out the potentially high cost of saving money. Attend this HP Discover 2014 session.
On paper, it might appear you can cut costs by using a third-party maintainer (TPM) or unauthorized support instead of support from HP or an HP Authorized provider. However, it's important to understand the differences in resources and capabilities, and how you might end up paying more than you expect.
A Discover 2014 session titled "The real value of HP & HP authorized support. Comparing HP authorized support to unauthorized third party support," outlines the risks associated with unauthorized support from a TPM. You'll find out why you should be concerned with the quality of spare parts, the skill level of support engineers, and escalation capabilities. You'll learn why you're at risk when you don't have access to HP's proprietary Service Advisories, and how HP Intellectual Capital Management policies limit third-party access to firmware updates and patches.
This is a must-attend session for anyone who thinks that initial cost is what should determine the choice of a service provider. It is a Discover Theater session and will be held on Tuesday, June 10 from 1:00 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. More information is available here.
Could this happen to you?
A major HP customer recently had a problem with firmware updates. They were aware of the importance of keeping their HP systems up to date, so they purchased software support from HP to get access to the latest software patches and updates. The HP agreement also included Proactive Select Credits that were used to get proactive assistance throughout the year from an HP Account Support Manager (ASM). Both of these were excellent choices.
Unfortunately, their third choice wasn't as wise. The customer listened to the "lower cost" claims of an unauthorized service provider and said "yes, please" instead of "no, thanks" to hardware support from the TPM. Everything seemed to be fine until a particular hardware failure occurred and the system failed to boot. The TPM tried many times over several days to resolve the issue. During this time, the customer was experiencing costly downtime and finally decided that "lower cost" support was becoming way too expensive. They called HP who set up a Time and Materials agreement with them and dispatched HP engineers to their sites. Using proprietary diagnostic tools, the engineers determined that three cell boards (System Boards) needed to be replaced. An operating system restore would also be needed to complete the repair. After approximately six hours of work, the system was turned over to the customer.
This story is just one of many examples that show why it's wise to say "no, thanks" to the money-savings claims of TPMs. The cost of saying "yes" is just too high.
If you are interested in finding out more about why HP and HP Authorized support are better, check out these other Discover sessions:

Amongst the greatest tragedies is undoubtedly that the DRC has come to be known as the "rape capital of the world." At some points in the conflict, an estimated 48 women were raped every hour, by militiamen but also by notoriously undisciplined Congolese soldiers. Rampant sexual and gender-based violence has long been a driver of the country's displacement crisis. An estimated 2.7 million Congolese are displaced within their own country, and one million were uprooted last year alone. In a cruel irony, risk of sexual and gender-based violence is not only a driver of displacement but one of its consequences: Internally displaced persons (IDPs) who are separated from their families and communities often face increased risk of violent attacks, including rape.
The recent defeat of the M23 rebel group has raised cautious hopes of peace and an end to the systematic sexual and gender-based violence that has so brutally characterized the war in the DRC. A recent event at the Brookings Institution addressed the challenge of preventing and responding to sexual and gender-based violence in conflict contexts, including in the DRC. On October 21, the Brookings-LSE Project on Internal Displacement and IMA World Health hosted Dr. Denis Mukwege, the renowned Congolese physician and human rights advocate who founded the Panzi Hospital, an institution dedicated to assisting the survivors of rape. Since establishing the Panzi Hospital in South Kivu in 1998, Dr. Mukwege and his colleagues have performed more than 30,000 surgeries to address complications stemming from rape. Dr. Mukwege's tireless efforts to speak out against rape in the DRC have earned him a Nobel Peace Prize nomination, but also forced him to flee his own home after an assassination attempt. Despite the danger, Dr. Mukwege returned to the eastern Congo to continue his work, on the urging of the women he has assisted.
In his speech at Brookings, Dr. Mukwege stressed that the roots of wartime rape lie in the gender inequalities that characterize societies not only in Africa but around the world; conflict merely amplifies these pre-existing inequalities. Education is needed to eradicate these inequalities and to increase understanding of the nature of rape itself as a crime. Rape is not, Dr. Mukwege emphasized, a sexual relationship. It is an effect to negate another human being and destroy their equality. This is a crime that echoes across generations, and creates a range of direct and indirect victims whose needs and rights are often forgotten, but must be addressed. These indirect victims include families who see their loved ones being raped, children born of rape, and whole communities in which the social fabric is destroyed because of systematic rape. Advocating a holistic socio-economic approach that enables the reintegration of survivors into society and the transformation of victims into community leaders, Dr. Mukwege underlined the need for psychological support for victims to restore their "strength so that they can fight for their rights."
The struggle to prevent and respond to sexual and gender based violence in the DRC, across the African continent and around the world depends in large part on the question of impunity. Dr. Mukwege underlined the critical role of the rule of law in deterring violence against women. "In the DRC," Dr. Mukwege said, "we have probably one of the best laws in the world that was written in 2006 to protect women. But how many women know about this law? How many men know about this law? Actually, it's not only a question of them knowing it, but the application."
Crucially, the agreement negotiated in Uganda on the disarmament of M23 states that the rebel leaders will be held accountable in court for the major violations for which they are responsible. In a break from the past, there is to be no amnesty. Efforts to ensure accountability must tackle the interlinked questions of responsibility for sexual and gender-based violence and the country's displacement crisis. Ratifying the African Union Convention on the Protection and Assistance of Internally Displaced Persons in Africa (Kampala Convention), an important new human rights treaty, would be an important step in this direction. The DRC is currently a signatory to the Convention, which explicitly prohibits and requires states to prevent sexual and gender-based violence against IDPs. The Convention also calls on states to "take special measures to protect and provide for the reproductive and sexual health of internally displaced women as well as appropriate psycho-social support for victims of sexual and other related abuses." Building on the momentum created by the defeat of M23, the government of the DRC should ratify the Kampala Convention and develop a concerted plan to implement the agreement, particularly those provisions that seek to prevent and respond to sexual and gender-based violence. At the same time, capacity to implement the domestic laws Dr. Mukwege highlighted must be strengthened.
The scourge of sexual and gender based violence in the DRC will not disappear with the defeat of M23—rapes and other attacks continue to be perpetrated by members of other militias, Congolese soldiers and in domestic contexts. Nonetheless, the dismantling of M23 must be capitalized on as an opportunity to redouble the fight against sexual violence in conflict.

[/quote] Whether we are approaching the plane itself, ie. Earth heading away, or earth approaching, is significant. Very much so. And mainstream science is not going to have the answers, in addition there are already different scientists who have said the opposite, ie. The Horizon Project. We have a library of records on earth as well, both geophysical such as La Violette's studies and in ancient records of the people. But, most of what you're saying seems to rely on the flawed model/theory/postulate that many scientists put forward as if its a factoid, though they know its a theory, not an altar to worhsip on, their not the priests worshipping on an altar, its a theory that has already been disproven by actual experiential and field time observations. Those field time observations, for example, ie NASA's studies on comets, that weren't the dirty iceballs they maintained, but were very clean, emitted Xrays, seemed like capacitors, and while they called this mysterious, every finding was already predicted by the EU theorists. We're in an Electric Universe. Gravity is a lesser force than EM. There are no black holes. A lot of their theories are errors. I'd watch this, NASA was wrong on comets and the only fit for them is EU. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dotIv6bJemE[/youtube] 1/6 Comets - Not What We Expected The sun isn't what is conventionally thought either. Theres a lot more planets with heat and an atmosphere of sorts in our solar system. EU changes everything. But what I don't understand about EU is how it all relates to the Galactic Plane. And what if this cycle isn't Galactic Plane, but La Violette's energy output, the one is a 26 000 cycle relating to the core. But is the galactic plane a 26 000 year cycle. We're not being told the truth so how would we know. And something our official scientists, as opposed to black op, don't study is SOUL. and Our own magnetism, and what really caused earth tilts. Its not the galactic core!!!!!!!!! Good Planets don't Tilt! They don't suffer as many disasters overall. Cycles can be Lions or Lambs, depending on negative/positive charge of people. [/quote] Wow, I had not considered that before. There are indeed two basic fundamental charges, which in my opinion are just the direction of their spin. Perhaps on this world we require both polarities, the yin and yang, but just as the new discovery has recently been made, that of a single polarity occurring in the Universe, there can go our own Souls to a Future where we need NOT of a negative! [/quote] We're not really meant to maintain the balance, ying/yang. That is the starting point, entry into the school, game. But with practice at riding without training wheels, gaining in positivity and advancing to higher levels, is the goal, upward progression to nice places. There is nothing at all to fear in all of this, ie. striving and yearning for a wonderful equal world and striving to live with positivity and integrity and love creates the next step, its interactive. But no matter what happens here, this is for all intense and purposes a dream state, experiences here are temporal. But what we see, and strive to become, yearn for, and do, is more important. CME's seem to be feared alot, alot of doom threads. I've only had really positive, awakening, experiences, with more memories when they hit. But then there was an earthquake off of Vancouver Island. So it may be how we see things, what degree of polarity we have that relates to what can happen. If there is a big cycle going on, are there theories that earth will move out of orbit? If the sun generates planets for example, don't they move out? Isn't it all like a giant clock with gears? [/quote] You've given me so many things to keep in my Remembrance, I'm very thankful. I witnessed one of the Powerful quakes in California when I was in my school years, and back then I knew only fear. On the big day in question next month, I plan on being on top one of the mountains here in Korea to witness what ever may come. And If it's geophysical and solar catastrophism like I expect, I try and imagine myself going into it with No fear, but when I still think about things like the hotness of fire or the coldness of water or like things, I feel even I and my spirit aren't fully ready, to my shame! But I'm going to meet it head on, and not shy away from it or bury my head under some sand, as is my plan. Perhaps part of the sun's discharge will include some of its Iron Core, giving rise to a new planet with such a core? Thee has to be something to the Fact that the planets for the most part turn Bigger with arguably more energy the farther we go from the Sun. I just haven't quite put my finger on it, although I've heard the many Theories. Thanks for the reminder on other things still yet to ponder~! [/quote]
Original Message
In our EU, the usual nearer and stronger EM forces of the sun keep us oriented--usually.
However as we approach galactic center, the forces there are so strong that we tilt even moreso sometimes (given whatever conditions we pass through at any given time), giving that mushroom smoking Cat like grin to the moon we witness, sometimes, even out of season.
Not to mention the polar disarray the sun is also going through not only with its own solar cycles (of which are bad enough), but--again--approaching galactic center.
These are signs of our impending pole shift.

Type | 2 Tier |
Material | Gum Paste, Other, Fondant |
Style | Colorful, Whimsical |
Share a little about the materials, processes and techniques used to create this cake: The oval shaped cake was decorated to match a Baby Mickey party theme. Fondant was used to cover the tiered cake. Mouse shapes are of fondant/gum paste mixture on cookie and pop sticks. Edible glitter was used to outline some of the mickey shapes. The baby's cake was made separately of whipped cream covered cake with fondant cut-outs applied, sitting on a custom shaped plate made of gum paste. This cake with plate was to sit on top of the second tier of the fondant cake for final photos (I don't have one of those yet).
Love this cake and the colors.
Thanks--it really was a cute design. The colors were matching the baby mickey party invitations and plates, etc.
Love ur cake! and i have a question about how u got the letters on Christopher is it a mold?
The letters are formed using FMM alphabet molds. I purchased mine from Amazon.com. You can find them by searching for FMM Funky Alphabet. Note you will need to purchase 3cm lower case letters and 4cm upper case alphabet and numbers.

Forty three is not some milestone birthday. This is no 30, 40 or 50. No big party, no keg, no new outfit was purchased to celebrate in -- just a day with people I love. And pizza, which I also love.
Read Whole Story
At 45 you still don't ever understand it all, but there is an acceptance of how this whole life thing works. You are quicker to say I'm sorry, slower to linger in spaces that feed you, and generally liberated from 80 percent of the shoulda-woulda-couldas that dominated your 30s.
Having it all isn't all fun and games, as we all know. But if men and women both pitch in with the same expectations and values, it can all equal out, according to Ann-Marie Slaughter.
On my 47th birthday, I found myself between three bald men in their 60s and a good-looking but trashed guy in his 30s. To be clear, I was standing between two groups on the dance floor and searching for my people, the hipsters in their late 40s with emerging wrinkles.
The worst thing about going to a potluck is not knowing it's a potluck until you arrive. Like last Saturday.
Having been single and not single in my 40s, I know that each side comes with its own unique hardships and pleasures. It's life that's "complicated", not being married or single.
I thought I'd see how the Gawker breakup anecdotes stacked up against 40:20 Vision hindsight -- what 40-something women would tell 20-something women based on what they know now.
This was the decade that 40-something women truly came into their own, pushing the boundaries for how a woman should look, feel and act in her 40s.

I went to bed a bit lonelier.After about three hours on the front stoop, the rain had left some sizable puddles in front of the building. And about this time the shadows had filled the area since the sun had fully set.I saw several shadows coalesce around the largest pool on the sidewalk before me. They would all reach in, like they were opening a hole for me to peer into.When I saw in, I could see a man I knew quite well, who I called friend, sleeping a restless sleep.He would lash about himself, with great ferocity, attacking an assailant that only he could see in his dreams.

U.S. Food and Drug Administration are warning the public to flee
fraudulent flu products that are readily available online. While the flu
season may have peaked in parts of the nation, Internet carpetbaggers
continue to convince unsuspecting consumers to buy their products.
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)

Published in Health
Keywords: Tamiflu, flu vaccine, online pharmacies, false claims, FDA
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - These products are being promoted by claiming they can treat or cure the flu. These products have not been tested or approved by the FDA, however - so beware.
Found online and in retail stores, these bogus drugs may be marketed as dietary supplements or conventional foods, drugs, nasal sprays and devices.
"As any health threat emerges, fraudulent products appear almost overnight," the FDA's national health fraud coordinator Gary Coody says. "Right now, so-called 'alternatives' to the flu vaccine are big with scammers."
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are adamant that people get the flu vaccine as your first line of defense. In fact, the CDC calls getting the flu vaccine the "most important" step in protecting against flu viruses.
"These unproven products give consumers a false sense of security," director of FDA's Office of Compliance and Biologics Quality Mary Malarkey says. "There is no need to buy a product that claims to be an alternative to the vaccine. Flu vaccine is still available and it's not too late to get vaccinated."
The CDC recommends two FDA-approved antiviral drugs for flu sufferers: Tamiflu and Relenza. These prescriptions drugs help fight the virus in your body and shorten the time you're sick.
While there are a number of legal over-the-counter drugs to reduce fever and to relieve muscle aches and other flu symptoms, there are no legally marketed OTC drugs to prevent or cure the flu.
Unapproved drugs, conventional foods or devices are fraudulent if they make flu prevention, treatment or cure claims. This is "because they haven't been evaluated by the FDA for these uses," Coody says.
In an attempt to crack down on these so-called "snake oil" cures, the FDA and the Federal Trade Commission sent a warning letter to the company that markets "GermBullet," which is a nasal inhaler that makes flu prevention and treatment claims.
"If the company continues to sell the product without removing the deceptive and illegal language, the firm may be subject to enforcement action, which could include seizure of the products or other legal sanctions," the letter read.
Internet scammers also take advantage of unsuspecting consumers in online pharmacies. While legitimate online pharmacies do exist, many Web sites that look legitimate are actually fraudulent and illegal. These illegal online pharmacies may be selling unapproved antiviral drugs.
"Beware of websites that sell generic Tamiflu or Relenza," FDA pharmacist Connie Jung says. "Currently there are no FDA-approved generics available for these drugs on the U.S. market."

Hi, Can anyone help me? My Passenger side vents only blow hot air! The drivers side is ok - and seems to work properly. Is this likely to be a flap / actuator or am I in new compressor territory? cheers!
Defo not a new compressor if you can get cold air from the drivers side. I'd say your initial diagnosis is correct, it'll be a flap or actuator. Vag.com should have logged it if you have access to it.
is there any easy way to identify if the flap/actuator isnt working? i.e. is there a similar 'diagnostic' mode for the 2003 S4 climate control? cheers!
I don't think so mate. The best diagnosis would be to make sure both zones are set to the same temperature, whack up the heat and check that both sides are the same.
Like the mode you can go into by holding ECON and pressing +/- etc. Like this... (quoted from a website) To see your true speed in digital format press the following key combinations: 1. Press Fan Down, Temperature Colder, ECON at the same time. 2. Use the temperature control buttons to cycle through the various channels to Channel 16. 3. Press ECON to go back to normal.

Every 10 years the U.S. Census provides data that reveal interesting and sometimes surprising social trends — few as provocative as the recent analysis that shows Utah is at the top of the upper echelon of places where people have household access to the Internet.
More Utah homes are proportionately "wired" than California households, or those in any other more populous and urban place. Only New Hampshire scores higher on the percentage of homes with online access. In Utah, it's more than 85 percent, significantly higher than the national average, which hovers near 76 percent.
The Census doesn't explain why the numbers are what they are, though it does offer some insights. Relative affluence, the density of main population centers and high education levels are all associated components.
Such rankings are popular fodder for bloggers, magazine editors and morning talk shows. The temptation when such data is revealed is to pursue an exercise of assessing whether it is good or bad for individuals or the general welfare. In this case, it may be both, or neither, depending on the prism through which you choose to view it.
What is not in dispute is that we are in an age of incredible technological proliferation. Our homes are wired, and so are we. Many of us carry telephones with computing power greater than the first garage-sized processors built with military money only a few short decades ago. One indelible fact about technology is the more we have it, the more we want it and, as a corollary, the more we find ways to use it.
A study this month by the Pew Research Center shows half of all people who have smartphones use them while they are watching television — sometimes to find out what other people think about the same program. One might interpret it as evidence of our enduring need to connect, interact and maintain our social bonds. As such, you could argue anything that facilitates human interaction is a good thing.
On the other hand, there is the concern that technology is rendering human interaction much less personal, often occurring in a sterile sphere of electronic isolation. Will families no longer gather around the TV to enjoy a program if they grow accustomed to watching it separately on a tablet computer and texting their reactions, even from the next room, to Mom and Dad?
It's instructive to recall that television, that now ancient-seeming technology, itself once spawned concerns over whether it would lead to isolation and social disconnection.
No doubt, people spend a lot of time watching television, as they spend a lot of time online in an ever-growing variety of digital venues. Is it too much time?
That's for each of us to answer. As we are increasingly tethered to devices that amuse us, inform us and make us more accessible to each other, it's important to remember that technology, at the end of a day, is only a tool. Its use and abuse is a matter of governance for families and individuals.
That Utah has risen to the top of the list of most-wired states certainly says many positive things about our culture and economy. It also offers a nice opportunity to pause and consider, as we ride on top of this wave, exactly where it might carry us.

A rib injury has knocked Valentijn Overeem (30-28) from a main event heavyweight fight later this month against Mike Kyle (19-9), and Travis Wiuff (68-17) will step up in his place.
Overeem, brother of UFC heavyweight Alistair Overeem, was scheduled to meet Kyle at Championship Fighting Alliance 11. AXS TV's "Inside MMA" on Friday reported the switch, and Overeem's management team confirmed the news.
CFA 11 takes place May 24 at BankUnited Center in Coral Gables, Fla. The main card airs live on AXS TV. The new main event between Kyle and Wiuff will be a rematch from a 2010 no contest under the King of the Cage banner.
"Everyone at CFA wishes Valentijn Overeem a fast recovery from the rib injury he incurred this week," stated Jorge de la Noval, CFA's founder and CEO. "… The main event of CFA 11 is a now a rematch that both of these fighters have wanted for years. Their first fight in 2010 was ruled a no-contest and now, three years later, they finally have a chance to settle the score."
Wiuff, a UFC and Bellator veteran, comes into the short-notice bout on a three-fight skid. A split-decision loss in Abu Dhabi was sandwiched in between quick first-round knockout losses for Bellator to Attila Vegh (25 seconds) this past August and Ryan Martinez in March (18 seconds). Prior to that, the veteran had a six-fight win streak that included a 4-0 run in Bellator.
Kyle, a UFC, Strikeforce and WEC vet, will fight for the first time since a first-round loss to Gegard Mousasi at Strikeforce's finale in January. With two losses in four Strikeforce bouts and a third overturned to a no contest when Rafael Cavalcanted tested positive for a banned substance, Kyle wasn't part of the Strikeforce transition to the UFC. He reportedly contemplated retirement, but then signed to fight Overeem.
Kyle and Wiuff met in February 2010. After a back-and-forth first two rounds, Kyle landed a punch after the bell. With Wiuff on the canvas, referee Herb Dean stopped the fight and it was ruled a no contest. Now, more than three years later, the two will get the rematch they've been seeking.
Overeem was looking to snap a two-fight skid, but will have to put that on hold with the injury. His most recent win came in February 2012, a first-round submission victory at KSW 18 in Poland. Of Overeem's 30 career wins, 29 have come by stoppage.
