How bad is it to run in the cold gentlemen, when already sick? I'd like to be back to near-normal again by monday, but having not run in the past week may hurt me a bit as well. Is a 3-5 mile run a bad idea?
Rest dude. You wont notice the cold if you're exercising hard, but that sort of work is tough on your body. Get plenty of sleep, eat well, and you'll recover much more quickly.
I actually trained shit like this back in the day. Heh. It's not that hard once you figure out how to get the knee of the non kicking leg up high enough. Until that point though, there is much humiliation and pain involved.

Keep punching her in the face and yell at her to just jump off the wall kick you in the face.
But she plays a lot of Left 4 Dead.

Also, Joe Warren is apparently going to be very busy the next couple of years.

"We've secretly replaced Bigfoot Silva with Anderson Silva riding on the shoulders of Wanderlei Silva. Let's see if Fedor notices."
Cool.
Fuck it, either way I'd still bet on Fedor.
It's a way simplified form of the console version, so much that I would compare it to THQ's UFC 2010.
You tap the corners of the screen for strikes; upper left for left punch, upper right for right punch, lower left for left kick, lower right for right kick. Except your opponent can block your attack and you waste stamina, OR your opponent can parry your attack and get a free counterattack opportunity which you can't defend except by parrying back. Sliding two fingers inward would attempt a clinch (and improve position in grappling), outward would escape, and sliding two fingers down would attempt a double leg takedown (or a submission on the ground). During these attempts, two points appear on the screen and you have to tap the points within a certain time frame to succeed. This is the same system during a submission, to torque it or to defend against it. Submissions first damage the stamina, then their health when stamina runs out. The game depends on stamina; run out of stamina and they escape your sub attempts., throw too many strikes and your max stamina goes down quite severely.
As you can tell, the app doesn't have that much depth. It does have multiple tracks from the actual game, and some challenges that are either recreations of actual matches (defeat Rogers via KO in 2nd round with Fedor) or really strange ones (defeat Shinya Aoki with Brett Rogers via submission...WUT). Yes you can mix and match weight classes, which results in hilarity.
For 99 cents it's a fun MMA time waster, but I'd stick with the actual console EA MMA for a fun in-depth fighting engine.
I can't wait for it<3

I did the same thing since it was $.99, You can't really compare it to the full UFC 2010. There's some really wacky crap going on this that makes absoultely no sense. Every time I fully mount someone I've got to defend against their Gulitoine from the bottom... that's not possible. It teleport clips me immediately back into guard. So I'd say it's worth $.99 if you need some sort of MMA simulation on your iphone, but other than that it blows.
I love...

Yep, sounds like a massacre to me.
Dana White is a pretty good guy.
Now if only he could treat all fans like human beings and not tell them to fuck off constantly.
HOLY SHIT ANTHONY PETTIS OFF THE FUCKING CAGE WHAT
That ... I really don't know how I feel about that. What the fuck does this have to do with him being a "true ambassador of the sport?" I mean, awesome of Dana to actually do it, but I certainly wouldn't have held it against him if he didn't, the way that "plea" was put together.
Maybe I'm just a bad person.

Not just because it's Dana. But just because that's how people are.

The thing is this is already taking advantage of Dana's previous acts of kindness. He's been doing stuff like this for a while.
That was one of the first points someone made in that thread, maybe the very first reply: where does he draw the line? However wealthy and/or generous Dana might be, he can't pay for everything everyone else ever wants.
And yes, you're right of course that that would be the reaction.

Also, it looks like Strikeforce is setting up a Heavyweight tourney of sorts. Might actually be pretty interesting to watch, mainly because Fedor, Reem and Barnett are in it. Interesting possibilities for sure.
