Bruce Buffer got into the cage and announced the outcome

Hamill stayed on the ground for a moment longer before being helped to his feet.While a cut man attended to Hamill, Jones waited for the decision to be announced.Bruce Buffer got into the cage and announced the outcome.APRIL FOOL'S JONES! Illegal blows get you disqualified!Andthat's exactly what the decision was Matt Hamill won.Now, I know that I was harsh on Jones. But can you blame meThose four elbows were not just a heat of the moment, throwing everything you got, blows They were fourblatant disregards for the rules And do not try to tell me that he didn't know the rules. The referee goes over the rules with the fighters in their locker rooms before the fights And this is not Jones's first fight in the UFC He knew the rules and chose to ignore them. The force from the elbows had no where to go and put Hamill in even more danger.Now, I know that I'm talking about a fight being too dangerous, but the bottom line is that MMA is a sport It is not a bar fight Or a "it's either you or me" self-defense situation. I wish Hamill a fast recovery and congratulate him on his win.. 7 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ Global Financial Integrity (GFI)released today a study estimating the annual value of illicit financial flowsfrom all poor nations at approximately $900 million.Titled "IllicitFinancial Flows From Developing Countries:2002 - 2006,"( http://) the ground-breaking report shows that the developingworld is losing an increasing amount of money through illicit capital flighteach year.Moreover, the value of the illicit flows surpasses the amount ofOfficial Development Assistance (ODA) entering those countries by an order ofmagnitude."Illicit financial flows siphon revenue out of poor countries, robbing them ofmuch-needed assets and forestalling economic development," said GFI directorRaymond Baker."These new figures reveal that illicit financial flows outpaceODA by a ratio of nearly 10 to 1.This is critical to understanding globalpoverty and developing effective poverty alleviation and economic developmentstrategies," Baker said.Primary findings of the report include:Total capital flight exiting the developing world may be as much as $1trillion per year,The volume of capital flight is increasing at an average of 18.2 ayear,Over the five-year period of this study, illicit financial flows grewatthe fastest pace in the Middle East and North Africa region (49.4percent) followed by Europe (25.4 percent), Asia (15.7 percent), andtheWestern Hemisphere (2.8 percent).

It wasn't the fact that the Tigers almost squeezed one out at the end to become ACC champions.It was the call with 1:20 or so to go, with Tech driving for the winning field goal, that has this Tiger fan looking forward to next year.Instead of allowing the Jackets to run the clock out and kick the winning field goal, Dabo did exactly what I was screaming at the TV"LET THEM SCORE!"It was the only way the Tigers had a chance, and if you look at how DaQuan Bowers lined uptwo-point stanceand how he and the secondary reacted, you know Dabo had told them to give the Jackets the touchdown.That gave the Tigers their only chance to win, and unfortunately they came up short.But that was the best coaching call of Dabo's short career. I look forward to many more.Go Tigers!.
