There is also a 50% chance he won't be in Tekken 6,to get to the point there are 2 endings that mean he will be and 2 endings that mean he won't be.The endings that lean toward he will be are Hwoarang,where Devil Jin destroys his mortorcycle and it apears they are going to fight.Devil Jins ending he absorbs Jinpachi's devil power and became incredibly more powerful,this could mean he is the boss in Tekken 6.The endings that lean toward he won't be are Asuka and Jin's endings.In Jin's ending he takes over the the Mishima Zaibatsu but he was in his human form,but there is a chance this could just mean he was able to take control of the devil gene and this could've happened after Devil Jin's ending so it could go in either catagory.In Asuka's ending Devil Jin transformed back to normal so this means he may not be in Tekken 6. Since Jin's ending could be in either catagory I'll give one last theory. Devil Jin is just Jin transformed so this means Devil Jin is a bit of an optional character so he could be removed for Tekken 6. ____________________________________________________________________________ /___________________________________________________________________________/ 09:WHAT IF DEVIL JIN ISN'T IN TEKKEN 6 WHO SHOULD I PLAY AS If Devil Jin isn't in Tekken 6 you're preety much out of luck.But if you still care I suggest Kazuya Mishima as his style (Mishima Style Fighting Karate) is very simalar to Devil Jin's style (Advanced Mishima Style Karate, Kazama Style Defense).You could also pick Jin Kazama and hopefully he acepted his Mishima bloodline and switched back to style he had in Tekken 3 and Tekken Tag Tourtament (Advanced Mishima Style Karate, Kazama Style Defense),and will hopefully be able to transform into Devil Jin simalar to switching the character stance and open up Devil Jin techniques. ____________________________________________________________________________ /___________________________________________________________________________/ 10:THE END Well this is the end of my FAQ I hope you enjoyed it.

High School is a hard time for everyone, but if you dress in Lolita fashion, it can be a nightmare! Here is how to do it the right way.
1Get some 'Lolita' inspired clothing. Before School starts, you might want to find Lolita inspired clothing for the first few weeks of school. For example, Forever 21, Charlotte Russe, and thrift stores have many nice vintage/inspired clothing. Hot Topic has some nice punkier pieces, or your favorite store might have just what you are looking for. But unless you have a full Lolita wardrobe, it helps to have some"normal" outfits.Ad
2Ease into Lolita slowly. A new school is hard to adjust into to, especially if you do not know anyone. You should ease into Lolita over these first two weeks. Tell your new friends about Lolita, and maybe they'll ask you to wear it for them! You could start off with a skirt (no petticoat) and a simple blouse or tee-shirt. Slowly add in Lolita shoes, petticoats, small bows, and knee high socks. Clothes are important, but it's good to make sure you make a good impression and start off your academics with a bang!
3Prepare to be laughed at, somewhat. Most people will not accept Lolita with open arms. They might make fun of you, start rumors, or just be rude. But remember they are the one ignoring a human being because of how the dress. Explain Lolita kindly to them, or just avoid the situation completely by walking away. Don't do it in a snobby way, though! A little bit of kindness goes a long way- and you want to create a non-snobby image.
4Have fun dressing up. If you are wearing Lolita, you most likely enjoy the fun that comes with dressing up. Always have a positive attitude and enjoy yourself! You will not even remember the rude people in High School, just the ones that helped you along the way.
5Decorate your binders, backpacks, pencils, pens, notebooks, and anything else with stickers, roses, fake sweets, and plastic bows. It will look out of place if your items do not match your outfit! Help others when you can, and always smile at everyone. Make the best out of these years, and do it your way!Ad
We could really use your help!
- Dress in theme-loli for Spirit Weeks or Holidays.
- Don't change yourself for others.
- Remember to study!
- Remember, it is a School. Sometimes Lolita will not be appropriate.
- Make sure you wigs, if you wear them, look natural. There's a time and a place for crazy curly neon split wigs, and school isn't it.
- Don't go full-blown OTT sweet! Not only will people laugh, you may be asked by teachers to take it off.
- People will make fun. Just ignore them.
- You have to change for gym class! Check to see if your petticoat can fit in your locker.
- Hats and headpieces are usually not allowed inside the school. You may want to decorate your hair using a smaller bow or hairclip, and save the hat for outdoors and after school.
- Sometimes teachers will be rude. Maybe you should take off the Head Eating Bow and slip on a cardigan for their classes.

Over the course of the next several years, CertainTeed sent and received more information about the potential hazards of asbestos.
In 1968 and 1969, representatives from both CertainTeed and GAF attended an industry group's health-and-safety meetings, at which they were presented with medical testimony about cases of mesothelioma being diagnosed in people who lived near factories.
At a meeting held February 18, 1969, the top in-house lawyer for manufacturer Johns Manville warned that people who live near an asbestos plant or mine could be among those suing the industry in the "foreseeable future."
The prediction was on the money.
Suburbs such as Bellefontaine Neighbors popped up after the war, fueled by families yearning for big yards, attached garages and outdoor pools.
The community's men worked as butchers, office workers or factory hands at the Ford and Edsel plants, assembling gas-guzzling land-cruisers. Stay-at-home moms baked cookies for boys with crew cuts and girls with ponytails. Kids rode home after school on their bikes, without helmets, and played with steel-edged toys covered in lead paint.
The new ranch homes that popped up in the '50s were built with asbestos roof shingles, asbestos-tile flooring and asbestos insulation, but nobody knew to be concerned. Decades would pass before anybody heard about Love Canal, Times Beach or Herculaneum.
Bellefontaine Neighbors was a typical suburban community. John Duerbusch moved there as a kid in 1952 and left in 1966. When Riverview Gardens High School opened in 1957, it was one of the first schools in the nation modeled on a college campus. "We were considered the coddled kids of St. Louis," Duerbusch says. "There was a big article in Parade magazine about Arlington Heights in Chicago and Riverview Gardens here in St. Louis, and it was about how it was the first time kids had cars."
But there was a drawback to living in the area: Cement dust coated the community almost continuously. "The one thing I do remember is that white dust -- everyday," Duerbusch says.
The mayor, aldermen and residents repeatedly complained to St. Louis County government about the emissions from the factories on Maline Creek. In 1967, the county passed an air-pollution ordinance. According to an article published by the North County Journal in 1968, the county's air-pollution-control head told residents that the dust had been studied and that "there is no proven health hazard." The story reported that the county health department identified Missouri Portland Cement as the main generator of dust. CertainTeed's impact was not reported -- and the health department no longer has a copy of its study.
But back in 1968, the health department wouldn't have been testing for asbestos fibers, says Beaman, the county's current resident asbestos expert.
When CertainTeed and GAF decided to close their plants in 1979, they first had to figure out what to do with the open asbestos dump and decades' worth of waste. With state approval, the companies laid twelve inches of dirt on top of the open waste, along with some plant seeds and some riprap rock.
The EPA and the Missouri Department of Natural Resources both inspected the closing of the dump. The federal agency had been monitoring asbestos pollution at the site since early 1979; DNR's air-pollution and hazardous-waste divisions, which by federal law are empowered to act on behalf of the EPA, had been involved.
When state and federal inspectors arrived on the site in late 1979, broken asbestos pipes and other waste were still scattered along Maline Creek. However, DNR's St. Louis-based regional administrator, Earl Holtgraewe, wrote in a memo dated January 21, 1980, to the director of the solid-waste-management program that "it would be just as well to leave it alone."
Neither agency required the companies to erect a fence to keep out children, who often played around the creek. After his inspection of the site, Holtgraewe wrote a letter to CertainTeed's vice president of manufacturing.
"It is our judgment," Holtgraewe wrote, "that the CertainTeed Corporation has taken the necessary actions to stabilize the asbestos waste pile and thereby restore the site to a condition in which it no longer poses a threat of contamination to the water or air resources of the state."
That was certainly the company's view. "There was nothing exposed," says Ambler, the retired division president. "Once it was covered over and approved by DNR and other applicable specifying agencies, the only exposure that happened was when that 100-year flood come through [in 1993]."
But records show that Ambler is mistaken.
For the next thirteen years, both DNR and the EPA tap-danced on the asbestos burial ground. In regular reports, the governments' inspectors described the waste site as a "low priority," even though they noted that soil was eroding from the asbestos waste and that the asbestos pier jutting into the stream was starting to crumble, releasing dangerous fibers into the air.
In December 1981, a state inspector noticed asbestos-cement pipe and other asbestos debris in the northwest corner of the site. The inspector also noted that the dump was within 350 feet of a nursing home and that the drinking-water supply was upstream. Two months later, the inspector wrote that there was now exposed asbestos slag, which, he said, "is now subject to sloughing off with the fluctuating stream flow and therefore poses some degree of concern."

Google CEO, Larry Page poses for the camera with Google Glasses
News on Google's augmented reality Glasses hasn't been strong since they were teased a few weeks ago, but CEO Larry Page was spotted rocking the Glasses in London. The pictures you see below are thanks to a Google employee, where they posted them on Google+.
The employee wrote alongside his pictures "My life is now complete - met Larry Page today! Thank you for visiting EMEA". Google's Glasses project is quite big, as its the company's first jump into cutting-edge hardware.
On top of this, thanks to the acquisition of Motorola yesterday, we should see Google's hardware division strengthened considerably. The best picture is the one above, where I think Page is laughing at the Facebook share prices tanking, as a layer in front of his eyes thanks to the Glasses, but that's just my guess.
Google's Project Glass finger-ring control gets patented
Google have applied for a patent in regards to their augmented reality-based 'Project Glass', the patent in question relates to a finger ring that controls technology such as Project Glass.
The patent is described as a "wearable market for passive interaction", in the form of a ring, artificial fingernails or other wearable items that could interact with a head-mounted display. The technology would reflect infrared light, which isn't visible to the naked eye.
A single camera could determine two-dimensional positioning, backed up by a pair of cameras that would detect three-dimensional positioning. The heads-up display (HUD) would sport menus, and would be controlled by the marker's position or specific gestures. This patent would definitely make sense, especially for things like navigation, and more.
Google's Project Glass shows usefulness of hands-free photography
The augmented reality project that is Google Glass is demonstrating the usefulness of one of its features. While the glasses are nowhere near any sort of public release, Google clearly feels confident in them enough to let senior engineers take them out into the public. The result? Pictures like this which show the point of them.
How else would you be able to take a picture like the one above if not for the hands-free photography capabilities of Google's glasses? Simple answer? You couldn't. Not unless you want your son to go flying off into the distance in the picture. I'm not saying that would be a bad picture, but it certainly wouldn't be the same as the above one.
It's not clear what sort of plans Google has for the project, but I can tell you I can't wait to try them. This would be another great place to use Google's indoor mapping. What about yourself? Would you want to wear a set of these glasses out in public?
Microsoft intros HomeOS, wants to be inside your house looking outside your... Windows
Where do I begin to even categorize this? Within 'Augmented Reality', I guess? Well, Microsoft have begun testing their home automation software, dubbed HomeOS, over the past few months. HomeOS can view quite a lot of gadgets, more than you probably think.
HomeOS sees smartphones, printers and air conditioners as network peripherals, all controlled by a dedicated gateway computer. HomeOS even sports some apps, which perform functions such as energy monitoring, remote surveillance and face-recognition. This is all thanks to Microsoft testing the suite out in 12 homes over the past few months.
This list will only grow, and the apps are made available through a portal called "HomeStore". These apps will surely turn into something magical over the years if HomeOS takes off.
Valve's hardware project is... wearable computing
We've talked about this a few times, but the latest news to float onto the surface that is the sea of the Internet is that Valve were hiring hardware engineers, that myself, and other tech sites presumed was for their unannounced Steam Box home console. I was wrong. It seems as though Valve are hiring for something quite different: wearable computing.
Google are doing it, Apple will wait a few years and do it and call it revolutionary, but it seems Valve are also getting into the mix. Games Industry reports from a recent blog post by Valve developer Michael Abrash where he revealed the fact that Valve are hiring for wearable computing. The project is inspired by Neal Stephenson's novel Snow Crash, where Abrash has taken it upon himself to try and shrink computers down to the point where you can have one on you at all times.

US military wants to give soldiers dual-focus cameras, probably won't call them T-101's
The on-going multiple wars that the United States are knee-deep in probably won't stop anytime soon, and will most likely only get worse from here on out if everyone we're being fed on the news is right: Iran, North Korea and those pesky "terrorists" that the U.S. government fund left, right and centre. But, the latest step that the United State Department of Defense is working on is something very interesting indeed.
The U.S. DoD have signed a contract with Innovega, a Washington-based firm for development and testing of its dual-focus contact lenses. The technology would make it possible to project a HUD (heads-up display) onto the center of each lens, while keeping it in-focus regardless where the wearer is looking.
This would really just give the soldier a game-like HUD, where he could view his
health stats, armor, and XP - on a serious note, the soldier could see details like notes from superiors, real-time maps, satellite view, and more. We're already seeing the consumer level of this technology from Google in the form of their Project Glass.
Interesting to see where the future of technology is, we're really looking at combining a cyber lifestyle, with our body and person. It simultaneously scares me, and makes me want it oh so much.
Google release mockup of what Glasses would look like over prescription glasses
Google Glasses was unveiled a little while ago, but questions started popping up from people who use prescription glasses, whether this new awesome looking technology would work with them. Well, hopefully there's no need to worry if a post from Google employee +Isabelle Olsson is anything to go by.
Olsson provided a mockup of what they'd look like, as well as Google's thoughts on the subject. Olsson has said that Google really want Project Glass to work for everyone, and they are actually experimenting with designs that are meant to be extendable to different types of frames.
Olsson continues saying that most of the Google team members wear glasses, so it's something they're definitely keen to get working. The above image is an early mock-up to show us what the device would look like sitting on prescription glasses. Personally, I just want the glasses here already. Like, yesterday.
Google co-founder Sergey Brin gets caught wearing Project Glass prototype in person
A little situation of 'why him and not me', Google co-founder Sergey Brin was testing out their Project Glass augmented reality HUD out in public. He was spotted sporting the glasses at a Dining in the Dark charity event for the Foundation Fighting Blindness.
Robert Scoble and Thomas Hawk were lucky enough to be at the same dinner, where they spotted Sergey wearing the glasses. Sergey explained that the glasses were a prototype, where they could see a "bluish light" flashing off his right eyeball. Scoble guesses the light meant that his Google+ profile was pulled up on Sergey's glasses, thanks to its augmented reality and always-on Internet connection.
He continued saying that most people around them had no idea that the glasses are actually different to normal specs. All I can say is, I want them and I want them now. So jealous.
Google confirms Project Glass AR specs
Google has finally confirmed that it is working on augmented reality glasses. They believe it could greatly enhance the world around you. The project is called "Project Glass" and was originally reported by the WSJ back in February. This, however, is the first time that Google has confirmed and explained the project.
The video below shows a user looking out a window and seeing a weather forecast, following walking directions, replying to instant messages and engaging in a video conversation. Google is looking to start a conversation regarding what people would like to see implemented in the fledgling project. There is no mention of a release date.
A group of us from Google[x] started Project Glass to build this kind of technology, one that helps you explore and share your world, putting you back in the moment. We're sharing this information now because we want to start a conversation and learn from your valuable input. So we took a few design photos to show what this technology could look like and created a video to demonstrate what it might enable you to do.

One of the best magic tricks involving iPads, ever
Ok, I've seen this thing popping up on various websites, my Facebook feed and everything in-between, but now I'm spreading its wings and posting it on TweakTown myself. This is one of the most amazing videos I've seen, and truly makes you wish you were capable of this stuff as they guys in this video make it seem oh-so-easy.
Swedish magicians, Charlie Caper and Erik Rosales, on behalf of the city of Stockholk, have provided the world with what I would call, the best iPad presentation, ever. The video is just filled to the brim with sleight of hand tricks, cool presentation, and iPads.
The duo used seven new iPads, and do some truly amazing things in the 3 minute and 23 second video. I definitely recommend you watch this, and spread it around - you'll be smiling by the final few seconds. One thing it makes me want to do: live in Stockholm. I never really realised how great it sounded until they were listing off all of the great things the country has done. Well done, guys!

Endpoint Protector 2009 update adds Snow Leopard support
updated 04:50 pm EDT, Thu October 15, 2009
Also supports Windows 7
CoSoSys has released a new version of Endpoint Protector 2009, its data-loss prevention and endpoint security application. The update adds support for Mac OS X Snow Leopard, along with the soon-to-be-launched Windows 7. Endpoint Protector is designed to protect confidential data, and provides tools for monitoring and controlling activities on other systems. File tracking lets users see copy sources and destinations, as well as determine which files can be copied.
Other features of the suite include reporting and analysis tools, usergroup permissions for files and applications, and the use of TrustedDevices encryption software. The new Endpoint Protector is available through the CoSoSys website, and can be downloaded as a free 30-day trial for Mac OS X and Windows XP/7.

Merge remote-tracking branch 'team/master' into svn
Modify .svnignore files. WLS branch and trunk changes. Added continuous only wls test. Found and added state space algebra test.
minor error msg mod to suggest action if non-square matrix declared as cov: perhaps you meant type = 'raw' instead of 'cov'?
Confidence Intervals now give the name of the parameter if they are from an MxMatrix instead of the MatrixName[row,col]. Confidence intervals on algebras still give AlgebraName[row,col].
Quiet annoying PPML warning
Modifications to passing models and PPML to eliminate some but not all warnings.
PPML Update: Largely rewritten PPML module with test permutor and new suite of test cases. Functional with the exception of certain cases (optimized numerical solutions to models with data specified in covariance matrix plus means format). Non-functional cases should be caught by the module's filter and allowed to run as normal. Known Issues: -Two of the test cases do not pass. One of the failures is possibly due to issues with the conversion from Objectives to Fits/Expectations. -Tests occasionally find questionable solutions, with very low (negative) Minus2LL values, lower than the minimum found by OpenMx. Allowing the optimizer to try to improve on these questionable solutions throws an error (Expected covariance matrix is non-positive definite).

1. Minced meat marinated in seasoning (1) for 20 minutes. Please stir with chopsticks for a few times
2. Fill big cooking pot with water, salt to taste and bring to boil.Remove stems from green beans (mine were sold already cleaned, so I skipped this part); put beans into moderate boiling water and cook for about 3-5 mins.– It is better for you to taste beans from time to time – it should be not too soft and even crispy when you bite it.
3,When beans are ready, drain them with colander:
4,Put beans back to the cooking pot and fill it with cold water in order to let them cool down:
5. Drain them with colander once more, cut the green beans into segments of 10cm.
6. Warm up skillet over medium heat with oil, fried minced meat with ginger and green onions.
7. Back into the beans, fry 2 minutes.
8,Serve green beans warm or cooled with your choice of main dish.
TIps:it is better to take french beans, they are more tender; but you can also use other types, just adjust boiling time.{June 28, 2010} {Tags: Green Beans, Minced Meat}

Nice recipe.
I eat this all of the time as a Chinese-buffet-restaurant item.
Yours is much better, although I add "ma" for the "la da" taste.
Can you add the Chinese name in pinyin and the characters in Simplified Mandarin?

this is my favorite submission at the moment, and i get it almost every day during training.. i think its much better to get it from side control than the half guard. If youre going to get it from half guard.. i think its good to already have slid your knee through.
id love to learn some really good counters though, because ive been tapped with it a lot as well

The Young Artists Repertory Theater Co. will celebrate its 10th anniversary this weekend with a production of the musical Annie.
It's a day company director John Greene was fairly certain he would never see.
"When I started this thing I gave it, gave myself, five years," he said. "That's the way of these things. Theater companies come and go. The children come and go."
Built on a foundation of small but challenging plays and the occasional lavish musical, YART found a following and a home.
Evans resident David Gianino doesn't take his scholarship from the National Gardening Association lightly.
"To me, a home-schooled student my whole life, to receive a scholarship is much more than just, 'Oh, here's some money, kid,'" said Gianino, a University of Georgia horticulture student.
"It's an organization's investment that I, as the recipient, am trusted with honoring the organization by using that funding to prepare myself to better other people with the knowledge that I will attain in school."
It has been a long time since I have seen an August with so much rain. Usually, plants in the area are suffering from a lack of water.
With all the lush plant growth, insects such as the fall armyworm, red-headed azalea caterpillar and the orange-stripped oakworm can become a problem.
Fall armyworms (Spodoptera frugiperda) are from the Gulf coast and south Florida. They tend to show up in our area around the last week of August or first week of September and can last until frost. Fall armyworms are pests of Bermuda grass, zoysia, millets and fall vegetables.
A few weeks after cutting teacher and paraprofessional positions to balance the school budget, higher than projected enrollment is forcing the Columbia County School Board to reopen some of those positions.
School Superintendent Charles Nagle told board members Tuesday that enrollment for the year is up by more than 600 students compared to the end of the 2011-12 term.
"When you're talking about 612 students, that's a school," he said.
Columbia County officials had to make unexpected budget cuts this past week to cover the loss of revenue from one enormously erroneous tax bill.
Harry and Annette Humbert found the error when they opened their bill Monday and saw their two-story home in the Kingston subdivision, off Wrightsboro Road near Grovetown, mistakenly had been assessed at more than $23 million.
What started out two decades ago as a hobby for Eric Jordan has soared to new heights.
The Grovetown resident has turned his love of remote control airplanes and helicopters into a small business, sharing his videos and reviewing products on YouTube.
"It's grown into a passion that I can share with other people," Jordan said.
Jordan first became interested in remote control vehicles in his early 20s, but his interest soon waned.
It wasn't until a trip to a local hobby store five years ago that Jordan got hooked again.
Grovetown woman charged after passenger dies in wreck
A 20-year-old Grovetown woman was charged with failure to yield and second degree vehicular homicide after her passenger died from injuries sustained in a crash Aug. 12 on Gordon Highway.
The hottest race on the ballot Tuesday might be the runoff between two Republicans seeking the District 12 congressional seat, but Columbia County voters also have to settle a school board race.
Just more than 1,506 voters took advantage of advance voting this past week to cast runoff ballots at the Board of Elections office, said Registration Coordinator Nancy Gay.
Grovetown officials approved a temporary ban on billboards at Monday's city council meeting.
The moratorium prohibits new signs bigger than 25 square feet.
"I'm very concerned Grovetown has become a target for outdoor advertising, billboard companies," Councilman Sonny McDowell said. "We need some breathing room."
During the moratorium, Georgia Municipal Association staffers will review the city's sign ordinances through the free Ordinance Review Program. The staff will then make recommendations to amend the ordinance.
Columbia County's tax office had an unusually high number of complaints about bigger tax bills this year after a three-year moratorium on reassessments ended.
Harry and Annette Humbert's bill can top them all.
Monday, when the Humberts received this year's tax notice for their modest two-story home in the Kingston subdivision near Grovetown, it included a serious case of sticker shock.
Because of a keying error in the Tax Assessor's Office, their $200,000 home instead was valued at nearly $23 million.

MMA News
Nik Lentz used $65,000 'FOTN' bonus for father's life-saving operation
Kevin Iole has for years chronicled MMA with great depth for Yahoo Sports. In this must-read piece for any true fan of the sport, he details how UFC featherweight Nik Lentz (24-5-2 MMA, 8-2-1 UFC) came to spend his $65,000 'Fight of the Night' bonus vs. Evan Dunham at UFC on Fox 2 on January 28, 2012.
Do yourself a favor and when you have a few minutes to spare, click the link at the bottom and read the entire piece.
The story begins Christmas eve 2011, when manager Monte Cox called to inform Lentz that he had been released from his UFC contract, following a win over Andre Winner and a loss to Mark Bocek, neither of which was fan friendly, or UFC president Dana White friendly.
Meanwhile, Nik's father Jon had just refused a $100,000 bladder cancer treatment in order to be able to finance Nik's sister's medical school.
"You talk about something tough to take," said Jon of the release. "He had a pretty good record. He was doing well. And they cut him. I couldn't understand it."
However, before the release could be processed, Paul Sass was injured while training for a fight with Evan Dunham, and UFC VP for Talent Relations Joe Silva asked Lentz if he wanted the fight.
Although he lost the fight due to a cut in the second, Lentz brought it with a fury, winning a $65,000 Fight of the Night performance bonus, and had a contract extension promised in the ring after the fight by Silva.
While smart fighters bank bonuses, and others buy fancy cars, Nik Lentz had other plans.
"I took that $65,000 and I didn't pay my manager's fees or anything else and I called my Dad and said, 'Now, you're having that surgery,'" he said.
"I knew that was the only thing I could do with it. I've been poor lots of time in my life. I can live without money. But my Dad and I were so close; we were such a close family. I didn't know if I could live without my Dad. It was an easy choice."
Lentz has since gone on to drop from lightweight to the UFC's featherweight division with the help of Mike Dolce, and in the process has won three fights in a row.
His father is confident his son will get a title shot in the future, and plans to be in his corner for it…

Wow. Good timing for him. Way to seize an opportunity!
Great story, I feel for the Lentz family. Lentz is getting good juju with this. I know I hope him well. He already has the skills for a successful life.
Very inspiring, Dana White I have always had respect for, but we hear more and more of such stories were fighters save His big pay days, I hope he learned from this to never judge a fighter by His last fight, but by the fight he is living in….. For evidence the Warrior comes to retake His Earth go to the websites now mentioned below in past yahoo/facebook commentary copied and pasted below… It has Begun … Our Lord's science has proved His mystery and instead His children of Science deny Him while reaping the benefits of His delivered Knowledge! For evidence that He and He alone brought forth Science go to the Proof in the news and science page, and the Targum page and the Proof of His healing in painting and verse page on the website at google search of Adam and Eve seed gathering Ministry!
Also on the Prophecy and the Signs page are the prewritten news events of this day prewritten three years ago and some more, and are now falling each week, such as the Japan quake and tidal wave, and the DC/Virginia Beach Virginia quake our Lord Jesus the Great scientist/physician brought on the same day as the unveiling of the martin luther king statue { with as we speak more quakes are coming to DC/V.Beach } also the record disturbances on the Suns surface all prophecy before their taking place so all of Science and Theology will know the Minister of the site is sent John 13:20 and a Righteous man! Many other signs listed there have come and are coming for this sounding to Science of God's Mystery being now finished by Science Revelation 10:7 for other proofs contact the minister for questions or more answers! Also go to the site at Adam and Eve in Action blog at google search, and therein are videos and links and pages of undeniable evidence that our Lord now prepares His earth for His retaking of it Matthew 5:5 and 25:34 Rev:5:10 and 21:3-4…. Respect to all scientists of Adam/God's seed/of Science/Nasa http://www.adamandeveseedgatheringministry.com/prophecy_and_the_signs AND http://adamandeveinaction.blogspot.com/
Such a cool story. Kinda wondering why the UFC was releasing fighters on Christmas eve though
