These FlamesI find, the flames attractiveAs I watch this city burn awaySo close, I almost had itI lost it all when I turned awayMy heart is full of broken dreamsShattered hopes and memoriesEverything that causes painLike a drop of acidic rainThe wind blows and it carries with itWhispered words and the sorrows hiddenSanctuary among the ashesBut the arson has one more match litAnd I find, the flames attractiveAs I watch this city burn awayWas so close, I almost had itI lost it all when you turned awayI regret every single momentWithout you with your hand in mineI regret never even knowingYou loved me the entire timeAnd I find, these flames attractiveBurning brightly, shining in your eyesI'm right here, and I finally have youAnd from the ashes we'll rebuild our lives...
If Ever I Lost YouWhat weighs on your mind?What's taking up your time?You tell me not to worry and you swear you're really finePlease open up to meTell me of your fearsYou know I'll kiss the scars and I'll wipe away your tearsDon't keep it to yourselfYou know you're not aloneI couldn't live my life without you ever coming homeI'd be so lost insideI wouldn't recognizeThe person that I see in the reflection of your eyesJust tell me you're okay, and that you love me tooI don't know what I'd doIf ever I lost you
Wonder.Do you fear your own death?Is it hard to conceive?Draw in your last breath, then-Your last breath will leave.Isn't it strange to think,That there's a timer above your head?A countdown you can't see,That finishes when you're dead.Don't you ever wonder,What it'll be like when you're gone?I bet the world will keep on spinning.There will be another dawn.But the harsh reality behind it-We're all going to die.There's no reason to try to fight itNot even to question why.It makes me wish that I could have a little more to give,Because I'm not afraid of how I'll die...I'm afraid of how I'llLive...
The Truth (And The Lie)I'm br(OK)en, really.
Completely.I am darkness personified.An abyss so drenched in blackThat it leaves meHorrified.My heart is a facadeIt's a useless beating lieBecause I've never felt a thingExcept for dead inside.It's a war I wageInside of my ribcageThat kills me a little moreEvery.Single.Day.I like to pretend tooThat somewhere beneath the painThere's a way I can break throughBut I already know…Things will never be the same.I lost absolutely everythingI can't apologize enoughThat I didn't know who to beWhen you said that you needed meMy scars are like chainsThat keep me from falling apartCompletely.
YoursI'll quit smokingI'll quit drinkingI'll be betterPlease, love me?I'll wear pretty dressesI'll apply pretty make upI'll wear high heelsI'll be all dolled upI'll be perfectionA fucking masterpieceJust please don't leave meCan you stay with me?I will be a better personI will be that only oneI'll be absolutely awesomeSo you could be proudI'll lose my faith and accept yoursI'll change my style and take yoursI'll give myself and become yoursI will even die but I'll die yours….
I Miss UsForever and alwaysDoesn't mean foreverThat promise blows awayOn the wind like a featherYou said you loved meBut you liedWhat other thingsDid you hide?I loved youDo you care?What are you thinking?Care to share?Needless to sayYou broke my trustDon't want to move onYet I mustYou broke my prideSo once againI'm stuck hereAs just a friendI miss our jokesOur fun, our gamesI miss not havingThis deep hidden painForever aloneNow realityLove will neverSet thee free
I'll wipe off your tearsTrust me when I say this, everything will be alrightI'll be here, to comfort you every moment of your lifeCry on my chest if you like, only if it lets you feel rightBecause I will always be here, right by your sideI know some things can be unexpected,And sometimes the bad can't be evadedBut I'll try my best, so you can be able to restAnd I'll try my best to relieve you from stressBecause I care too much to leave you with painIt tears my heart to see you like this againYou've told me to step back, but it's too sad and tiringI promise you, this will be the last time you'll be crying
I Never Forgot YouI Never Forgot YouAfter all these years,I never stopped thinking of you.Your laugh, your smiles, the happy placeYou filled in my chest.You were a cherry blossom petal -You left so quickly, and took everything I loved with you.You were ephemeral.My beating heart becomes nothing -A closet of skulls and daggers.I refuse to laugh,For I forgot how to.The same sky that bonds usIs the same sky that separates us.A smoggy sky, a starry skyThat connects us two.You gave me an affliction,You made me lonely and twisted.If only you stayed, would I be different?Would my heart beat and make me feel more alive?The rhymes I hear, the songs I hear -Is that enough to make me feel somethingReal for once?The hole that can never be filled - and it is your fault.I never forgot you.Never forgot the loneliness, the pain I had gone through.Somewhere out there, mayhap -You never forgot me too.
Dying From LoveDying From LoveHis sweet words touched her heartNow it is bleeding and torn apartHis gentle touch as he held her handNow it is empty as a barren landHis tender kiss across her lipsIgnited something deep withinNow they are parched and dryCraving moisture that he would provideHe caressed her heart with his loveNow it is screaming from the painDying slowly as she cries in the rain
Good MorningGood Morning.I have a distressing tendency of waking up too early.The sun escaping from the blinds always begins to stir me.Just as I begin to behave sullen and surly, her presence averts me.I turn to my side to see the vein in her left arm pump overtly.She's completely immersed by the covers.I have to resist temptation not to hold and hug her.Her body suddenly moves with a spontaneous shudder.Her mouth moves but not a word or sound does she utter.I stare at her intently and push her stray hairs behind her ear.Realising that loosing this woman will be my most dreadful fear.Her eyes momentarily open just to make sure that I am near.I was born alone in this world but I live my life in a pair.She has no idea that I watch her while she sleeps.Or that I tingle when her newly painted toes brush against my feet.I often think what my life would be like if me and her didn't meet.Would she even look twice if we crossed paths in the street.Her hands move against the pillow as if

)He Loves Me (
He'll break your heart)
Don't Go"Don't go…" There are few words more powerful. I watched my best friend as her very soul shattered. She kept saying it. Yelling it. Desperately begging."Don't go! Don't go! Don't go!" She screamed, her voice breaking as she plead. The agony poured down her face, tears blending with the rain. Her beloved weakly placed a hand on her cheek. He smiled through his pain, a hole torn right through the middle of his life. He whispered to her. I could barely make out his words above the sound of the rain against the leaves."Its alright." He said. His voice, somehow steady, "Come here."She swallowed hard and gently lay her head on his chest. I leveled my rifle and scanned the area again. The last of our enemies lay dead at my feet. Above the rain I heard my dying friend's voice singing softly. One last song for the woman he loved."You are my sunshine… my only sunshine… you make me happy… when skies are grey." His voice barely held the notes as it gave way to the v

Cruise West, the small-ship exploration cruise line, has been awarded by the National Park Service eight cruise ship entries to Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve. The cruise line also holds two tour vessel permits that allows 105 entries of its smaller vessels. This is the highest number of tour vessel entries allocated to one cruise line.
"Cruise West is unique as we hold both kinds of ship permits – a cruise ship permit for the Spirit of Oceanus (over 100 tons), and a tour vessel permit for the remainder of our fleet (ships under 100 tons), said Chairman and Managing Director Dick West.
Seven of Cruise West's ten Alaska cruise itineraries ply the waters of UNESCO World Heritage Site Glacier Bay National Park. Cruises range from four to 25 days and operate May through early September. Guests with additional time can extend their cruise with a fully guided Land Tour to Anchorage, renowned Denali National Park and Preserve and Fairbanks or stay at a rustic lodge in the heart of Denali.

Non Fiction
Gillian Richardson , 2013
Dig up the amazing stories of the plants that have transformed our lives.
Plants might start out as leafy things growing in the earth, but they can come into our lives in unexpected ways. And believe it or not, some have even played an exciting role in our world's history. Discover how:
Countries went to war to control trade centers for pepper
A grass called papyrus became the first effective tool for sharing knowledge through writing
Europeans in the 1600s cut down rainforests to grow sugar, contributing to soil erosion
Cotton improved the livelihoods of a few, but caused unthinkable suffering for many more
Corn fueled new technologies and turns up in thousands of everyday products
The discovery of rubber revolutionized transportation, making bike and car tires possible
Tea and chocolate became big business, and the race for profits was on
Dependence on the potato caused one of the greatest tragedies in history, while the bark of the cinchona tree saved countless lives from malaria.
The ten plants in this book are the source of profound changes in the world, both good and bad. Through vibrant illustrations and astonishing facts, you'll discover that without them, our lives today would be vastly different.
Maggie Steincrohn Davis , 2008
Last night in my tub,
in my tub while I scrubbed,
I dreamed that I lived
in the sea with the Whales.
Magnificent Whales. Mysterious Whales.
Mystical, Musical, Mountainous Whales.
The narrator of this tale is a boy who knows that whales are magnificent but endangered creatures. He wants to do anything he can to save them, and as he scrubs in his bathtub, he dreams up a plan to save the whales.
Children from all over the world also get in their bathtubs to save the whales, planting a garden of whales. He knows this is a fantasy, but the dreams of children are the roots of action.
Joseph MacLean , 2013
The reader will discover some interesting bits of history and tradition that are not widely known. Many, for example, do not know that Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin (two of the American Founding Fathers) both attribute the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) Confederacy, one of the world's oldest democracies, as the inspiration for the American Constitution. Or, that the origin of 'Red Indian' is not because of skin colour, but from the ochre (iron oxide) used by the now extinct Beothuk to colour their skin red – red skin.
At the bottom of each letter there is a list of Indiginous peoples that begin with that letter. The idea is that the names can be recited as a sort of poem of remembrance. This book celebrates Aboriginal heritage and culture and is beautifully illustrated by Brendan Heard, a Canadian artist who works in oil paint and digital medium.
The author, Joseph MacLean, is an historian by education, a story teller by avocation and a social entrepreneur by trade. The book was written ten years ago when Joseph was working on a literacy project in Vancouver's infamous DTES (Downtown Eastside) – the poorest postal code in Canada.

Inventiveness and ingenuity from North America's First Nations.
Everyone knows that moccasins, canoes and toboggans were invented by the Aboriginal people of North America, but did you know that they also developed their own sign language, as well as syringe needles and a secret ingredient in soda pop?
Depending on where they lived, Aboriginal communities relied on their ingenuity to harness the resources available to them. Some groups, such as the Iroquois, were particularly skilled at growing and harvesting food. From them, we get corn and wild rice, as well as maple syrup.
Other groups, including the Sioux and Comanche of the plains, were exceptional hunters. Camouflage, fish hooks and decoys were all developed to make the task of catching animals easier. And even games-lacrosse, hockey and volleyball -- have Native American roots.
Other clever inventions and innovations include:
* Diapers
* Asphalt
* Megaphones
* Hair conditioner
* Surgical knives
* Sunscreen.
With descriptive photos and information-packed text, this book explores eight different categories in which the creativity of First Nations peoples from across the continent led to remarkable inventions and innovations, many of which are still in use today.

"A Salmon's Sky View" began as the idea of using art to make reading fun and engaging. As a teacher and a parent of creative children, I imagined it would be great to finish reading a picture book and then to have the art directions to re-create the illustrations. I wanted kids to feel the joy of succeeding and expressing themselves.
I chose an art project which I had used as a teacher and had been really successful with children of many ages – looking up through water at a silhouette. Once the art medium of permanent black ink and water colour was chosen, I started thinking of a story line which would go with it.
I wrote the non-fiction story of the life cycle of a salmon. I love salmon. The world I want has an abundance of salmon in it. Not only is the salmon a part of our teaching curriculum but it is a vital part our natural heritage in British Columbia, Canada.
I started sharing my story with students. Many people (especially kids) are intrigued to hear that the art came first - this is an example of the author being a very creative, right brained, visual learner.
I realized that there was much more to this little salmon story and I wanted to understand it. This became the basis of my Master of Arts research. I examined creativity, literacy and I explored how teachers' viewed visual learners. I worked with teachers who were involved in the stewardship program of incubating salmon in the classroom. This helped me develop an understanding of the creative process and learning styles in relation to my book. We shared the story, art and writing process. We noticed that students' writing was often richer and more detailed when asked to write after they had created a picture. Teachers' consistently viewed students as more engaged learners.
"If I can't picture it, I can't understand it."
~Albert Einstein
Current brain research confirmed that art integration can lead to gains in literacy and numeracy and that intelligence is multiple. Through enhanced literacy, we can help students make their way in the world as engaged, creative learners. I decided that this was an idea worth sharing and launched my book in July 2009 at the Vancouver Aquarium's NAME (Northwest Aquatic and Marine Educators www.pacname.org ) conference.

The ingenuity of African peoples from ancient times to today.
Did you know that aloe vera -- now found in countless products, including sunscreens and soaps -- was first used by Africans? They ground it into powder and used it to treat burns and other skin conditions, and hunters used it to disguise their scent from animals. They also used the nutritious oil from the fruit of the oil palm tree in everything from cooking to medicines to wine. And the marimba, better known to us as the xylophone, is believed to have originated 700 years ago in Mali. Other unique African innovations include the technique of banana leaf art and using horns -- and hairdos! -- to communicate important messages.
Africans Thought of It features descriptive photos and information-packed text that is divided into sections, including:
- Agriculture
- Food
- Medicine
- Music
- Architecture
- Games & Sports
This fourth book in Annick's successful We Thought of It series takes readers on a fascinating journey across the world's second largest continent to discover how aspects of its culture have spread around the globe.

A beautifully illustrated dictionary of 26 key aspects of life in the Arctic.
World-class photographer and science writer Wayne Lynch takes readers to one of his favorite parts of the world: the Arctic.
Using a plant, an animal or a phenomenon for each letter of the alphabet, Lynch describes the unique ways in which systems for living differ where temperature and light can be amazingly extreme. But Lynch also dispels the myth of the Arctic as a perpetually frozen landscape by introducing us to the birds, mammals, insects and plant life that thrive in the short yet glorious sun-filled days of summer.

Phoenix Coyotes (36-35-4) at Calgary Flames (42-24-9), 10 p.m.
(Sports Network) - The first-place Calgary Flames will try to get back in the win column tonight, as they host the Phoenix Coyotes at the Saddledome.
The Flames have 93 points and hold a three-point edge over Colorado for first place.
Calgary had won three straight before dropping a close decision against visiting Detroit on Monday. Chris Osgood made 27 saves and stopped both shots he faced in the shootout to lead the Red Wings to the 2-1 win.
Dion Phaneuf scored in regulation for the Flames and Miikka Kiprusoff was impressive in defeat, stopping 41-of-42 shots.
Tonight marks the middle segment of a three-game homestand for the Flames, who are 26-7-4 as the host this season.
The Coyotes also had a three-game winning streak halted Monday in Edmonton. Sergei Samsonov and Marc-Andre Bergeron both tallied a goal and two assists for Edmonton, which cruised past Phoenix, 7-1.
Keith Ballard and Mike Johnson assisted on Mike Comrie's first-period goal, the only tally of the contest for the Coyotes.
Phoenix's playoff hopes are fading, as the Coyotes are 11 points behind Vancouver.
Curtis Joseph had a tough time in net for the Coyotes as he allowed six goals on 25 shots in two periods before being replaced by David LeNeveu at the start of the third period. LeNeveu stopped 10-of-11 shots in the third period.
The Coyotes, who are 18-18-1 as the visiting team this season, complete a four-game swing tonight.
Phoenix has won two of three meetings with the Flames this season. However, Calgary has been victorious in seven of the last nine encounters.

Never Again Lyrics - Nickelback
Review The Song (5)
He's drunk again, it's time to fight
She must have done something wrong tonight
The living room becomes a boxing ring
It's time to run when you see him
Clenching his hands
She's just a woman
Never Again
I hear her scream, from down the hall
Amazing she can even talk at all
She cries to me, Go back to bed
I'm terrified that she'll wind up
Dead in his hands, She's just a woman
Never Again
Been there before, but not like this
Seen it before, but not like this
sponsored linksNever before have I ever
Seen it this bad
She's just a woman
Never Again
Just tell the nurse, you slipped and fell
It starts to sting as it starts to swell
She looks at you, she wants the truth
It's right out there in the waiting room
With those hands
Lookin just as sweet as he can
Never Again
Seen it before, but not like this
Been there before, but not like this
Never before have I ever
Seen it this bad
She's just a woman
Never Again
Father's a name you haven't earned yet
You're just a child with a temper
Haven't you heard "Don't hit a lady"?
Kickin' your ass would be a pleasure
He's drunk again, it's time to fight
Same old shit, just on a different night
She grabs the gun, she's had enough
Tonight she'll find out how fucking
Tough is this man
Pulls the trigger as fast as she can
Never Again
Seen it before, but not like this
Been there before, but not like this
Never before have I ever
Seen it this bad
She's just a woman
Never Again

Alisa Said It Right | Reviewer: Adam Rock | 6/6/14
No need for me to go into further details but the reviewer Alisa said it correctly. However, despite the pain that comes from all of this, I'm one to look for what can come from a situation such as this. And if there are any victims of child abuse reading this, just know that there are those out there are caring and will show you the love that you need.
♥ | Reviewer: Taylor | 11/20/09
THIS SONG ROX! I love Nickelback! I heard my mom play this song and i learned it.... i like the lyrics even though i'm too young to sing it. i make my own versions of songs that i'm too young to sing... this song ROX! - Taylor
never agiain | Reviewer: triplex | 9/24/09
i thought it was more like the singers cousin maybe. she was in an abusive relationship and she went to him about it... fueling the lyrics and the inspiration for the next song he wrote. its a pretty amazing song mostly because of the ways you can interpret it...
on abuse and those affected | Reviewer: Alisa | 3/19/09
i like this song. it shows up in my mind as from many different povs on abuse, seperated by the chourus which comes from each subsequential person. the first part part from the boy, the womans son, hideing in his room. the second part talks about a hospital visit, and the nurse's pov in the corus this time. the part "fathers a name you havent earned yet" is probably the little boy., fed up with the violence. probably now about 13. you can guess how an abusive man would react to that. he hits the boy. the final part, the woman grabs a gun, determined to defend not only herself, but now, her son. she put up with when he hit her, but her child? hell no. the chorus finally winds up with what sadly ends up happening alot when vioence is used to end abuse. the woman is taken away for murder, away from the son she defended. the "shes just a woman" part, now comes from the police on scene, upset about the murder.
atleast in my mind. it seems to fit. abuse hurts everyone involved, even if you arnt the one hit. there just doesnt seem to be a happy ending when it comes to abuse. no knight in shining armor. just more pain and sadness.
this song is just like my life growin up but my mom didn't get a gun she left n e wayz every time this song comes on my mom,my brother,and me turn it up and sing it as loud as we can we've done it ever since i can remember

This is a box I completed yesterday…I guess I can call it my April Fool's Box. I have another show to do in about a month …so I am working to get as many new boxes ready as possible.
This box is made with BubbaBinga and Zebrawood that I had in the shop. The finish is 7 coats of spray lacquer.

That's one nice looking box Greg. I like the ripple effect you achieved with your sculpting and the detail for the feet. I have some Bubinga sitting in the lumber rack waiting for me to make a box out of. I hope I can pull out as much character from the wood as you did.
Good luck at your show.

JoeyG…you need to pull that Bubinga out of the lumber rack and make a box. It is really a beautiful wood and takes such a nice finish. I plan on using more of it and need to make a lumberyard trip to get more.
Art…I sell these at the shows…need to recoup some of the expenses of the show and get some more lumber and tool money. I sell them anywhere from $295 – $750 and I did have some flat bottom boxes with reduced prices as a show special.

Security risk 'nothing new' for oil & gas sector, Genel CFO says
Terror strike in Algeria is a stark reminder, not a wake-up call
By Gaurav Sharma | CFO UK | Published 15:47, 22 January 13
The oil and gas sector has always had to contend with security risk, Julian Metherell, CFO of Genel Energy said on Tuesday.
Speaking in wake of a terrorist strike on a gas plant in Algeria, Metherell told delegates at an Economist Group event in London that his peers viewed the incident as a stark reminder of security risk rather than some sort of a wake-up call.
"We in the business have had to live with security and geopolitical risk for a while. This tragic incident is a reminder to the wider world of the climate oil and gas companies operate in some parts of the world," he said.
"In fact, the willingness to take risk drives the upstream or extraction and production (E&P) component of the oil and gas business. The 'high risk, high reward' connect is well documented in our case and those of our peers," Metherell continued.
On 16 January, armed Islamic militants seized control of the In Amenas gas project in Algeria taking several workers hostage. A subsequent counterterrorism operation by Algerian forces resulted in over 40 civilian deaths.
Nearly 30 militants were also killed; but not before they had mined and planted explosives around the whole facility. It also emerged that foreign nationals working at the In Amenas facility were deliberately targeted. BP and Statoil operate the facility in conjunction with Algeria's Sonatrach.
Speaking about his company's own investments, Metherell said, "By investing in a company operating in Iraqi Kursdistan, as we do, our equity investors take-up a level of risk that they are comfortable with. It's not that security or geopolitical risk is not there. Only those investors who are comfortable with the level of risk we have undertaken are there for the ride."
The Genel Energy CFO also said that there was a tendency within the sector, and the wider energy business, to perhaps learn and rigorously adapt from another's misfortune. "BP's oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico (and the industry-wide changes that followed) is an obvious example," he said.
In response to a question, on the UK's anti-corruption legislative framework, Metherell described the country's Bribery Act (2010) as a "good thing."
"I feel it is a development which helps level the playing field for UK-listed companies when it comes to anti-corruption due diligence. The new law prepares us and holds in good stead against comparable global anti-corruption laws that have been around for decades, the US FCPA (1977) Act for instance," Metherell said.
"In some ways, I think Bribery Act (2010) is up to date, comprehensive and is better relative to anti-corruption legislations in some jurisdictions," he concluded.
London-listed Genel Energy was created in 2011 as a result of the reverse acquisition of Turkish Genel Enerji by Vallares, an investment company fronted by former BP CEO Tony Hayward. It currently has E&P operations in Iraqi Kurdistan with plans to expand its activities into other Middle East and North African countries.

Another main event equals another rematch for Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), as Lightweight champion Ben Henderson defends his title against hometown boy Anthony Pettis in a rematch from their epic World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC) 53 event -- the last one in company history - in which "Showtime" took the 155-pound title away from "Smooth" nearly three years ago.
The UFC 164 "Prelims," which can be seen on FOX Sports 1 and Facebook, have several exciting and noteworthy under card fights, but it is the headliner that is generating most of the buzz as former WEC Lightweight champion Jamie Varner battles UFC veteran Gleison Tibau in a pivotal fight for their respective careers.
These two fine mixed martial arts (MMA) match ups, which will take place at BMO Harris Bradley Center in Milwaukee, Wisc., this Saturday night (Aug. 31, 2013), are among the most important fights to watch on the main card and the "Prelims."
Here is another installment of "The Top Two," UFC 164: "Henderson vs. Pettis 2" edition:
Ben Henderson vs. Anthony Pettis
It will be a homecoming for Pettis, who fights in his backyard of Milwaukee for the first time since 2008. With the home crowd on his side, his work is definitely cut out for him as he meets a man he has beaten before, in champion Benson Henderson. "Showtime" already has a victory over "Smooth," as he was the last man to defeat him at WEC 53, winning the Lightweight title just under three years ago.
However, Pettis was not granted a championship in UFC, nor did he get a champion versus champion fight. Instead he received somewhat of a title eliminator fight with Clay Guida, who smothered him on the ground for three rounds and was accused of "playing it safe." Guida did not get a title shot either but instead, fought the man Pettis beat for the title five months later.
With a win over Guida, Henderson set up a fight with Frankie Edgar and three successful title defenses later, he finds himself sitting on the throne in the lightweight division. Pettis continued his winning ways but he was constantly being skipped and when the opportunity arose to challenge Jose Aldo in the featherweight division, "Showtime" had to bow out because of an injured knee.
This rematch is finally happening, almost three years in the making. Henderson has ameliorating himself greatly since then, and the different fighter we are used to seeing in the present day has some of the best cardio and endurance in the sport. His readiness alongside his to eagerness expand his fighting style has made him savvy in his profession -- mixing up with strikes with awkwardly picking body and leg shots along with takedowns coming from peculiar angles.
He needs to be listed as one of the best in the world if an outlet decides pound-for-pound rankings mean anything but his recent string of competition has many question the actual greatness of Henderson. Both his fights with Frankie Edgar were close, the second one being specifically notable when it comes to extremely close fights.
Henderson convincingly beat Nate Diaz at UFC on Fox 5, but it was Diaz's teammate and close friend, Cesar Gracie Jiu-Jitsu alumni and former Strikeforce Lightweight champion Gilbert Melendez, who gave Henderson one of the fights of his life, losing a split decision many feel like he may have won. Henderson has this ability to win rounds instead of fights, swaying the judges to score the bout in his direction more often than not, if they are following the 10-point scoring system.
"Smooth" is deserving of his place in the division and having the title to be wrapped around his waist, but he would like nothing more to convince the public that his elite status is earned if he can decisively beat "Showtime" and avenge his loss at the same time, making his UFC run perfect and his record untouchable.
Pettis may have landed the single-best legkick in MMA history with the "Showtime Kick" back at WEC 53, but he also excelled in something greater -- he defeated Henderson, withstanding the champion's takedowns and got the better of him on the feet as he won his first major world title. Pettis is the only man to defeat Henderson under the Zuffa banner and he will want to prove that although it was a few years ago, he has not lost any ground when it comes to a rematch with the champion.
Pettis has looked outstanding since his loss to Guida in the UFC, with stoppages over Donald Cerrone, Joe Lauzon and a split decision win over Jeremy Stephens, establishing himself as a true title threat and a man who may consider himself as the lineal champion in that division.
Pettis' psychological edge may be a factor in this fight as well, as Henderson will want to erase that loss from his memory and losing to someone can summon something different in the mental aspect of the game -- but how much will Pettis' hometown of Milwaukee play a role in this fight? Could the challenger be feeling hometown pressure that can work against him?
It was destiny for these men to meet again and although they have both gotten better and have improved their skillset in their respective careers, this fight is just as tough to call as the first and there is a good chance something memorable and even special will come out of this fight -- just like the last one.
Jamie Varner vs. Gleison Tibau
Varner's career was almost over before he scored an upset of the year performance by stopping Edson Barboza at UFC 156 last year. He was riding a two-fight win streak in Xtreme Fighting Championships (XFC), but after going winless (0-3-1) in WEC before his signing, it looked like the demons were catching up to Varner. His performance against Barboza was an inspiring one to say the least and although he fell to Joe Lauzon by way of submission shortly after, he edged Melvin Guillard in Dec. 2012, proving that he could still compete at the highest level of competition.
Varner, a former WEC lightweight champion, could continue to do well in his career but he needs another impressive win sooner than later to convince the masses he can still be a force at 155 pounds. Varner faces a man who has been with the UFC since 2006 with two separate stints -- Gleison Tibau.
Having a whopping 19 fights in the promotion without ever getting a title shot, Tibau is not exactly a draw and has not shown in the past that he is deserving for a championship bout, plus some fans may not even be familiar with the American Top Team product. He has only been finished three times in his career, the last dating back to 2008 at the hands of Joe Stevenson.
The problem with Tibau is he loses the big fights that matter most. Sure, he can look impressive against the likes of John Cholish, Francisco Trinaldo and even Rafael dos Anjos (in a very close fight), but he needs a win over a relatively big name to assure his place is not being taken up in the lightweight division. Varner is not a huge name but he does have a following. A win over Varner can increase the chances of getting a big fight with another popular fighter, but it would be in Tibau's best interest to excite and deliver, maybe even look for a finish over former champion like Varner.
Tibau is not a bad striker but his staff of life is undoubtedly his takedowns, troubling opponents from the get-go with vicious brute strength. How he makes the 155-pound limit is a mystery, but his agility and his flexibility is also impressive when it comes to how the Brazilian utilizes his size.
It will be Varner's striking against Tibau's takedowns, but Varner has showed some lack of wrestling defense in the past when it comes to larger and more powerful opponents (although he looked good against a powerful Melvin Guillard in his last outing). Although the size difference may be nullified in this fight, he needs to be careful when it comes to Tibau's sheer power. As for Tibau, he may want to avoid Varner's stand up, which can catch him because of the speed and power Varner possesses in his shots. Either way, this matchup is an enthralling bout on the "Prelims" not only because of their different styles, but how the near future looks for the winner of this fight.
