But once again, Anthony Pettis was able to show the world just how much of a threat he’ll be in the future when he was able to lock in a triangle choke on the high ranked Shane Roller, forcing him to tap out in one of the most spectacular finishes the fight world has seen recently. [4]

Pettis was also able to deliver a quick series of punches to his defenseless foe, forcing the referee to halt the fight at 2:27 of the first round. [2]

The Wisconsin-native began fighting as a professional in December of 2007 for the Milwaukee, Wisconsin-based Gladiators Fighting Series. [3]

Over the course of the extremely close fight, Pettis would pull off some simply unbelievable highlight reel strikes, such as the Au Batido, a capoeira type kick that sees the offending striker do a half cartwheel while placing his foot in his opponents face. [4]

After defeating Leggett in October 2008, Pettis submitted Jay Ellis at GFS 55 during the 1st round for his fifth straight victory in less than a year. [3]

mystery google

Monday, September 27th, 2010

Interesting and strange search engine Mystery Google has quickly become a trend. [1]

Until November 30, 2009, the website was known as Mystery Google, but on December 1, 2009, the name changed to Mystery Seeker. [2]

The Mystery Google website offers a seriously strange riff on the “I’m Feeling Lucky” button: instead of taking you to the number one result for your own query, it takes you to the search results for the user who searched just before you. [3]

You type a search query into the search bar of Mystery Google, and you receive the results of a different query that were made just before you. [4]

You can complete some mission that given you by Mystery Google! [1]

Recommended article: Give me a mission Mystery Google! [4]

To play this game, use the search engine until you end up with a result that reads Mission or Google Mystery Mission. [5]

Other examples of possible missions include telling someone you love them, sending someone a get well card, mailing a banana to someone, etc. [2]

Get the hot trends straight to your inbox. [1]

To use this innovative search engine, type in a search query into the Mystery Google search engine found here and see what kind of results you get. [5]

Our search for “Donors Choose” took us to the results for a search on “life is normal today:[" which turned up the My Life is Average site, which is awesome (the same folks put out the recent AverageCats LOLcats parody, which is also awesome). [...] Mashable is an online guide to social media. [3]

It’s also a fun game to play during the upcoming holiday season if you have some time on your hands and don’t know what to do. [5]

I got 6 texts this morning from random people all across the US and a picture message of a carton of eggs. [4]

Upon a search query, Mystery Seeker returns the results from the previous search, so ‘you get what the person before you searched for’. [2]

Monday, September 27th, 2010

In October 2008, Alberto Culver announced that it had closed the transaction to acquire the worldwide rights and trademarks to the Noxzema skin care brand from Procter & Gamble, which includes the existing business in the United States, Canada and portions of Latin America. [1]

Alberto Culver is a small company in comparison to the giant companies with whom we have competed throughout our 50+ year history. [2]

Its flagship brand is the Alberto VO5 line of hair care products. [...] Alberto-Culver Company manufactures and markets a range of beauty care, personal care, grocery, and household brands. [...] From the bathroom to the kitchen to the laundry room, Alberto-Culver has you covered. [1]

Wet hair is fragile, so never use a brush or force tangles by pulling. [2]

It is the number one manufacturer in the multicultural beauty care market with such brands as Soft & Beautiful, Just For Me, Motions, and TCB. [3]

The Alberto-Culver Company is dedicated to building, for the long term, profitable businesses and substantial brands which are recognized for bringing innovation and value to consumers and an excellent return to shareholders. [1]

On November 10, 2006, shareholders voted to spin off the company’s salon distribution business, which includes Sally beauty supply stores and Beauty Systems Group. [3]

Though Alberto-Culver Company is significantly smaller in size and revenues than its competitors Procter & Gamble Company (PG), and L’oreal (LRLCY), it has recorded greater growth than the rest of the industry. [4]

Less breakage means a smoother, more beautiful style. [2]
