Alcohol is created when grains, fruits, or vegetables are fermented, a process that uses yeast or bacteria to change the sugars in the food into alcohol. Alcohol has different forms and can be used as a cleaner or antiseptic; however the kind of alcohol that people drink is ethanol, which is a sedative. When alcohol is consumed, it's absorbed into a person's bloodstream. From there, it affects the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord), which controls virtually all body functions. Alcohol actually blocks some of the messages trying to get to the brain. This alters a person's perceptions, emotions, movement, vision, and hearing.

1. Original promoters of the Ultimate Fighting Championship wanted to include such sensational side shows as alligator moats and electric fences surrounding the ring. UFC Doctors of course warned against them due to the dangers the fighters could face.

2. The UFC was founded by Rorian Gracie and Arthur Davie. It was created to promote the Gracie family’s martial arts school. Before the UFC the Gracie’s were known for inviting fighters of any style to compete against a member of the family or one of their students to prove that Gracie jiu-jitsu reigned supreme.

3. Originally Semaphore Entertainment Group, the company that purchased the UFC, was only going to hold one UFC event. The event was so successful they immediately began to plan more tournaments. Good thing it was so successful.

4. With the exception of UFC 9, every UFC up until UFC 18 used the tournament style format. UFC 23 also used this format. Eight fighters would compete to start out the tournament. The four winners would then compete in semi-final matches. The two semi-final winners would compete for the championship belt. If a fighter could not continue at any point an alternate was brought in to take his place.

5. Early on the UFC would hold events in states without athletic commissions to avoid regulations. In the beginning there were no judges either. When judges were added eventually there were no clear parameters on how to judge the fight.

6. For the first couple UFC events, the referees had very little power. They could not even stop a fight. There only purpose was to make sure that the few rules that existed were enforced. The only rules at that time were no biting, fish hooking, eye gouging or throat strikes. Fortunately after the first few events refs were allowed to stop fights.

7. In 2000 SEG and the UFC almost went under. The face that SEG marketed the sport as brutal and bloody almost led to the UFC’s demise. Luckily an amateur boxer and promoter named Dana White convinced the Fertitta brothers to buy the failing organization. The UFC has since flourished to unbelievable heights.

8. Dana White managed Chuck Liddell and Tito Ortiz in the early days of the UFC. He also owned three gyms in the Las Vegas area.

9. After many years of "bad blood" Dana White and Tito Ortiz were going to settle things in the ring with a 3 round boxing match on March 24, 2007. Surprise, surprise the fight never happened as Tito Ortiz was a no show at the weigh ins.

10. In 2006 the UFC generated $222,766,000 in revenue, braking the PPV industry’s all time record for a single year of sales, surpassing wrestling and boxing. The largest events reached nearly 800,000 viewers.

The largest feet in the world belong to a Mr Matthew McGrory who lives in America whose feet are a whopping size 28½ (US size). The 7ft4in resident of Florida, USA has to fork out a massive $22,745 for a pair of shoes to fit his unusually large feet.

True Pirate Facts

The Jolly Roger flag, with its black background and white skull and crossbones, was designed to be scary. This flag was not used by all pirates, usually it was only flown by those sailing in the Spanish Main.

Pirates believed that wearing pierced earrings would improve their eyesight.

Pirates believed that having women on board their ship was bad luck. They also believed that whistling on a ship would cause the weather to turn stormy (as in ‘to whistle up a storm’).

Pirates would take over island ports and make them a safe haven for pirates.

Almost all pirates stole their ships because they couldn’t buy ships incase they got caught and sent to jail. Once they had taken over a ship they had to convert it for pirate life, this usually meant making more room for sailors to live on board and strengthening the decks to hold the weight of the heavy cannons.

Ships sailing on their own often sailed close to warships or joined other convoys of ships to protect themselves from pirates. Pirates could only attack one ship at a time, so if the sailors traveled in groups there was less chance of their boat being the one that was attacked.

Pirate Captain’s would change out of their expensive, flashy clothes if there was a chance they might be captured. This way they could pretend they where only one of the crew, and not somebody important and hopefully escape.

Pirates probably didn’t have talking parrots.

Although pirates have been around since the 15th century, most pirating happened between 1690 and 1720.

On the Caribbean island of St Thomas you will find a place called ‘Black Beard’s Castle’. It is believed that this is where the famous pirate spent many hours looking out for approaching ships.

There are about a billion bicycles in the world, twice as many as motorcars. Almost 400 million bicycles are in China. Every year some 50 million bicycles - and 20 million cars - are produced.

Although Leonardo da Vinci drew some rough sketches of a contraption that looked like a bicycle, the Frenchman De Sivrac built the first bicycle-type vehicle in 1690. It was referred to as a hobbyhorse. However, it did not have pedals. Those were added in 1840 by a Scottish blacksmith, Kirkpatrick Macmillan, who is credited with inventing the real bicycle.

Stockings have been around since several centuries,
protecting the legs of both men and women.

George W Bush Quote: "If our country does not lead the cause of freedom, it will not be led. If we do not turn the hearts of children toward knowledge and character, we will lose their gifts and undermine their idealism. If we permit our economy to drift and decline, the vulnerable will suffer most."

Farm Animals
No one knows when animals were first used by man. Cattle, sheep, pigs and goats were probably tamed thousands of years ago by hunters following grazing herds. As time passed they thought of the animals as their own, and learned that they could have milk, wool and meat without killing so many animals. Horses were tamed to help with heavy jobs such as pulling the carts and plough's. The dung from the animals was used to fertilize the soil and help the crops to grow.

Over the years the animals have been selectively bred, using those which were most useful.

Richard Walker holds the record for the Chomp Title by chewing 135 sticks of bubble gum for 8 hours. The first person to win the 'Chomp Title' was Sue Jordan, who chewed eighty pieces of Doublemint gum for five hours and twelve minutes! Clyde Steward McGehee, of North Carolina, broke that record by chewing 105 sticks of Juicy Fruit for six hours and Richard Walker broke that record by chewing 135 sticks of gum for eight hours.

Cats wag their tails when it is in a stage of conflict. The cat wants to do two things at once, but each impulse blocks the other. For example: If your cat is in the doorway wanting to go outside, and you open the door to find it raining, the cat's tail will wag because of internal conflict. The cat wants to go outside, but doesn't want to go into the rain. Once the cat makes a decision and either returns to the house or leaves into the rain, the tail will immediately stop wagging.

Unibrow, for the realy hard man.

A unibrow or, rarely, monobrow, medically known as a synophrys, refers to a "confluence of eyebrows"; i.e. the presence of abundant hair

The unibrow conventionally has negative associations in western culture, and is the reason why many people remove excess hair between the eyebrows.

Beauty culture
In Western perception, a unibrow may make a person seem ugly, fierce, grumpy, or over-serious, so much so that the unibrow has become something of a cliché in fiction, especially with cartoon characters (see below).

Among Western women, the region between the brows is often plucked, waxed, shaved, or treated with electrolysis or other forms of depilation.

Paris’ younger sister, Nicky (born in 1983), shares the throne as co-heiress of the Hilton empire.

GG allin, a man amongst men.

Many men think their penis is below average size. But what are they comparing it with? Where do heterosexual men get their view of how large or small an average penis might be? From the locker room, perhaps, or more likely from watching porn films - a rather sad way of reinforcing a low opinion of one's penis, since most porn stars are well-endowed with penises much larger than average. And having a large penis is not a blessing ether, as you may well know if you happen to have talked to a woman who has had a lover with a large cock! (It can hit the cervix, and cause pain during intercourse. It can be uncomfortable to even get it in widthways, and it can be too long to thrust comfortably.)

But guess what? If you look at your penis from the viewpoint of your lover - in other words, from the side, not from above, it magically appears longer! This is something to do with the effect of perspective - so look at it sideways in a mirror, no matter how small you may think it is normally, and you might find it suddenly appears longer. And penis size is truly an area where appearance is everything!

Lastly, what is average size? Do you even know what the size of an average penis for your racial group actually is? (Answer: 5.9 inches erect for whites, 6.4 for black men, and 5.4 inches for Asian men.) But, here's the thing: when you have an average, about half of all measurements must be smaller than average. So what does average penis size really signify? A standard by which you can always feel inferior to other men if your erect dick happen to be 5.9 inches long?
