Ufc 106 Results: latest news about, The Tito Ortiz and Forrest Griffin main event just ended and we have the complete UFC 106 results ready to go.
Everyone saw the controversial decision in the first Tito Ortiz and Forrest Griffin fight and the judges’ decision in the second is equally head-scratching according to these UFC 106 results. Forrest Griffin took the decision 30-27, 29-28, and 28-29 although most thought he lost the first two rounds before coming back and dominating in the 3rd when Tito looked gassed.
Anthony “Rumble” Johnson swung hard against Josh “Kos” Koscheck but the knockout artist could not overcome Koscheck’s wrestling (and eye pokes) as “Rumble” was choked out in the 2nd via rear naked choke. The UFC 106 results show both fighters connected with hard punches but Johnson could never stop the 2nd round takedown attempts.
Other UFC 106 results show that it did not take Antonio Rogerio Nogueira “Minotauro” Nogueira very long at all to dispatch top light heavyweight title contender Luis “Banha” Cane and the brother of the former interim heavyweight champion knocked out Cane in the 1st round.
Amir Sadollah battered Phil “The New York Bad Ass” for 3 rounds and easily won the decision. These UFC 106 results were not unexpected after Sadollah used a steady stream of kicks and defense to tire out the hard-hitting Baroni.
The last UFC 106 results of the main card had Paulo Thiago getting a well deserved decision victory against UFC-newcomer Jacob “Christmas” Volkmann. Thiago knocked down Volkmann a few times but “Christmas” never quit and had a decent chance to tap Paulo with a choke before the Brazilian pulled out to seal the victory.
The Spike TV UFC 106 results had Kendall “Da Spyder” Grove choking out wrestler Jake Rosholt by triangle in the 1st round and Ben “Killa B” Saunders giving the first career knockout to Marcus “The Irish Hand Grenade” Davis following some killer Saunders’ knees.

Latest News Updated, Syfy Ghost Hunters: Halloween means trick or treating, candy, and costumes for kids and for adults it means plenty of SyFy Ghost Hunters. Luckily for the diehard ghost-seeker and purveyor of all things paranormal, Hulu broadcasts full episodes. Tonight, however, it isn’t full episodes that the hunters are seeking; it’s the live ghost hunt that SyFy is featuring this Halloween.
The live Halloween Ghost Hunters special features an interactive section on the website where viewers can participate and take part in the hunt. There are different camera views as the hunter search through the Essex County Hospital. You may join in and if you believe you see something eerily creepy, you may click on the panic button. The show is completely interactive with the viewers and the team will address users’ panic button alerts. What could be more fun on Halloween night?
The Essex County Hospital is the perfect place to investigate. Located in the Township of Cedar Grove, New Jersey it was built in 1986 and was a psychiatric hospital. Tragedy struck during the winter months of 1917, when the hospital’s boilers failed to work and the patients were without heat for several weeks. After the ordeal, 24 patients had died, many frozen to death, and 32 patients were diagnosed with frostbite. Many believe that the souls of those who died in the Essex County Hospital haunt the building to this day.
Essex, like many other psychiatric hospitals during that time, was prone to overcrowding. Patients were also subjected to procedures, many experimental. It has been estimated that approximately 10,000 people died while in the hospital center. During the 1960’s to 1990’s the hospital’s population declined and the doors were finally closed in 2007. The SyFy Ghost Hunters team has featured Essex County Hospital before, and has determined that the hospital is haunted. Now, with the interactive cameras, you can decide for yourself.

LODGING ADDED AT FARMLINKS:
There has a been a lot going on lately at FarmLinks.
The world’s only research and development golf course, located near Sylacauga, has built three cottages and four cabins for guests when they stay overnight and play.
Two of the cottages, named after noted course designers Alister McKenzie and Donald Ross, can be found to the right of the 18th fairway.
Each features four bedrooms, with two beds in each bedroom, and a large common area containing a full kitchen and dining area, plus a fireplace and living area.
The four cabins and other cottage are next to the 11th fairway. The only difference between a cottage and a cabin is that the cabins have a smaller common area and a kitchenette.
These five have been built in a semicircle around a short-game area.
Combined with the existing Parker Lodge that overlooks the 17th green, Hamilton Place and another guest house, the course now has a total of 79 beds on property.
Each room comes with its very own Club Car golf car. So once you park your car upon arrival, you need not use it again until you leave.
When David Pursell and his father, Jimmy, sold Pursell Technologies Inc. to Canadian conglomerate Agrium a couple of years ago their onsite corporate headquarters was part of the deal. Thus, the Pursells and their team needed somewhere to conduct day-to-day operations. So they built a new HQ and adjacent educational pavilion named the Solutions Center. These can be seen from multiple holes including Nos. 4, 11 and 12.
Designed with a barn motif in keeping with the farm atmosphere seen throughout FarmLinks, both buildings were finished late last year. Both buildings, though rustic on the outside, are very high tech on the inside.
Also, the existing clubhouse has been significantly expanded and now has more room for more people to enjoy lunch.
David Pursell talked of other plans in the works including a five-stand sporting clays range and quail and dove shoots, as well as bass and bream fishing. Their first dove hunt is scheduled for Sept. 11-12.
