sepulcher \SEP-uhl-kuhr\, noun:
- a burial place; tomb
- a structure or niche in a church in which sacred relics are deposited on Good Friday and removed on Easter
c.1200, "tomb, burial place," especially in reference to the cave where Jesus was buried outside Jerusalem (Holy Sepulcher or Saint Sepulcher), from Old French sepulcre (11th century), from Latin sepulcrum "grave, tomb," from root of sepelire "to bury," originally "to perform rituals on a corpse."
- The process of learning or memorizing by rote, subsequently followed by the regurgitation of that knowledge onto an exam answer sheet. Just as with the serious eating disorder, this form of bulemia results in no real retention of substance. This term is frequently applied to describe a common practice of young medical students.
I can't remember anything that I learned last night. It's like I grabbed the answer sheet, puked out all the answers and forgot everything immediately. I'd say that's academic bulemia.
Trivia
How much ethanol does a bushel of corn yield?
- Approximately 2.8 gallons.

- John Lennon: ex-Beatle and peace icon was shot to death outside his apartment in NYC by Mark David Chapman, a deranged fan (1980)
Today's Birthdays:
- Diego Rivera (1886-1957): muralist

Former UFC champ Tanner dead at 37
From Yahoo News:
http://sports.yahoo.com/mma/news?slug=ys-mmaweektanner090808&prov=yhoo&type=lgnsFormer Ultimate Fighting Championship middleweight champion Evan Tanner was found dead near Palo Verde, Calif. on Monday. He was 37.
Tanner had trekked into the desert on a journey to “cleanse” himself, according to Douglas Vincitorio of Tanner’s management team. “He went out to the desert to do a ‘cleansing’ as he called it. Kind of like ‘Survivorman.’” These short trips were not new to Tanner, said Vincitorio. It is something that he has done numerous times over the years.

Pure shit
While I was on vacation I caught the much hyped Kimbo Slice mma fight on CBS. My brother-in-law was hailing Slice as the baddest motherfucker ever to beat another man down with two fists. Matches with Kimbo rarely last more than a minute, forget about more than a single round.
What we got, instead, was the most boring fight I've ever seen, and the TKO was pathetic. It made me wish I went and took the shower I was planning in this minutes, it definitely would've been more satisfying for me. Instead I watched a fight that was pure shit. A complete waste of time.
There is a great article about it here:

Georges St. Pierre suffers shock loss to underdog Matt Serra at UFC 69: Shootout
Sun Apr 8, 12:03 PM
By Neil Davidson
HOUSTON (CP) - Matt (The Terror) Serra promised a shock result and he delivered. He even explained how prior to taking the welterweight title away from Montreal's Georges St. Pierre on Saturday night at UFC 69: Shootout.
"There's nobody unstoppable in MMA (mixed martial arts). There's so many ways to win and lose," he told reporters in a conference call last Monday. "You know, someone zigged when they should have zagged and the fight could be over."
That's exactly what happened Saturday night before a crowd of 15,269 at the Toyota Center.
Midway through the first round, Serra (16-4) caught St. Pierre with a right hook, stunning the 170-pound champion. St. Pierre (13-2) said later the blow had caught him on the carotid artery.
The 25-year-old Canadian fell backwards. He got up and tried to buy some time by attempting to taking Serra down. But the 32-year-old jiu-jitsu black belt from Long Island, N.Y., refused to get tangled, maintained his space and kept throwing. The champion went down and Serra fired punches from above until referee (Big) John McCarthy stopped it at 3:25 of the first round.
"At this level, when you make a mistake you lose," St. Pierre said later, sporting a welt under his left eye.
The bout had not excited too many in advance. St. Pierre seemed a lock - younger, bigger, faster and better equipped than Serra.
Plus Serra earned his title shot the Hollywood route by winning Season 4 of "The Ultimate Fighter" reality TV show, which focused on veterans making a comeback.
St. Pierre, in contrast, had cut a swath through the welterweight division to get another crack at longtime champion Matt Hughes after losing by submission in 2004. St. Pierre dismantled Hughes in the rematch to take the title in November.
No wonder UFC president Dana White called the Serra win "probably the biggest upset in MMA in a long time." Serra was anywhere from a 9-1 to 11-1 underdog, depending on the bookmaker.
St. Pierre appeared on target early on, pressing the fight and keeping Serra honest with a string of high kicks. But he unravelled after the right to the head.
"I felt it connect," Serra said.
St. Pierre's reign as champion lasted one fight and 4½ months, a rule extended by a knee injury that postponed the bout which was originally set for Feb. 3. And no one on the face of the planet felt worse than the classy Quebecer.
"This is my worst nightmare," said St. Pierre, who both congratulated Serra and apologized to his fans.
"I didn't take him lightly." he added. "I trained really hard for this. I got beat. I have no excuse."
But he promised to return - stronger next time. "I climbed Everest once and I will climb it again."
Serra, the shiny belt sitting in front of him. was equally gracious in victory at the post-fight news conference.
"Georges is a phenomenal fighter and I still think he's going to be the future of the sport. And I feel bad for his next opponent."
For his part, Serra proved he is more than a jiu-jitsu guy. And he adds another chapter to a career revitalized by a TV show that showed him as a fine coach and a good guy.
His win also gives a boost to reality TV. Earlier in the day in his native Wales, WBO super-middleweight boxing champion Joe Calzaghe stopped Peter Manfredo, runner-up on "The Contender" TV show. Manfredo was a top-10 contender, but failed his title exam,
The St. Pierre loss is bad news to Canadian MMA fans on a couple of fronts, probably deep-sixing a planned card in Montreal for later this year. But White said Serra would fight Hughes next, keeping alive the possibility of a St. Pierre-Hughes rubber match.
Hughes was ringside and loving it when St. Pierre lost.
Serra is about to get married, so any future bouts may take a backseat for a little while.
