A really nice segment on Fedor from "Pride Decade", a documentary on the history of Pride FC. Numerous fighters are interviewed about Fedor. My favorite is this quote from Mark Coleman on the slam Fedor received from his good friend and training partner Kevin Randleman at Pride Critical Countdown 2004."Within a quarter inch, the fight was over, but did I think the fight was over? Uh, I hoped it

It’s hard to ignore the similarities of our current crisis with Japan’s financial crisis which began in 1990.

April 25 (Bloomberg) -- Japan's consumer prices rose at the fastest pace in a decade in March as companies passed on higher costs of gasoline and food to protect profits. Core prices, which exclude fresh fruit, fish and vegetables, climbed 1.2 percent from a year earlier after gaining 1 percent in February, the statistics bureau said in Tokyo today. Bonds fell as traders increased bets that the Bank of Japan will raise interest rates from 0.5 percent later this year to quell inflation. Governor Masaaki Shirakawa and his colleagues will probably stick to their policy of gradually increasing borrowing costs in their twice-yearly outlook next week, former central bank official Masaaki Kanno said. ``Core prices will continue to gain, spurred by crude oi

The S&P500 closed yesterday at 1,315.22 points. The first time the S&P500 stood at this level was April 1999. This past decade in the US stock markets has been a long-term investor’s nightmare. I’m referring mostly to retirement savings and households of course. The following chart is of the S&P500 index since 1999:The rule of thumb in long-term saving is that stocks, over time, are the best investment option available as volatility gets averaged out and all that is left is to enjoy the average returns over the years.Another rule is that the younger you are the riskier your investments should be since you have enough time to average out poor performance.While financial advisors work according to these rules the academic world has had problems substantiating them on a solid

QUOTE: We need to build 2,000, 3,000 nuclear reactors for it to take on the kind of role that coal has today.WHO: Dr. Makhijani, ...if we cast ourselves forward to 2050 or 2060 and we've made, as a nation, as a world, significant investments in nuclear power, what's wrong with that?In order to make a significant impact on climate we have to build 2,000, 3,000 nuclear reactors for it to take on the kind of role that coal has today. Probably more, considering the growth in China and India. That means one nuclear reactor every six days or so. That means we have to build two or three uranium enrichment plants every year. First of all, nuclear is the lazy answer. It fits into the structure we've got. It's the way we've always done things. We've got 95-percent centralized ele
