What Are The Rules Of Ultimate Fighting Championship?
Q. I have just started watching Ultimate Fighting Chapionship on Setanta Sports. It is similar to Cage Rage on Sky Sports. I have noticed that the fighters seem to be able to do almost anything, such as kick, punch, elbow etc, but as there is a referee in the cage with them, I assume that there are some rules. What are the basic rules please?

Why is Pelosi repealing the rules to effectively block all Republican inputs on legislation?
Q. Gingrich added the rules in 1996 to allow both sides of the table a voice in creating bills. The rules also had term limits for committee seats. Why is Pelosi trying squashing all promises of bipartisanship by telling the Republicans to stay home because they don't matter anyway?

A. Your asking about this web link: "House Speaker Nancy Pelosi plans to re-write House rules today to ensure that the Republican minority is unable to have any influence on legislation." + "Pelosi s rule changes -- which may be voted on today -- will reverse the fairness rules that were written around Newt Gingrich s Contract with America.

What are the rules for flying internationally with my pet rabbit?
Q. I will be traveling to Lagos, Nigeria in 2010. I will be over there at least one month. I did not want to leave my bunny baby with a sitter or board her for that length of time.

A. You need to check with the government of Nigeria, your country and the airline. You might be able to bring the rabbit to Nigeria, but not back easily. Pets are usually restricted for in cabin travel on international flights, and rabbits are rarely allowed in cabin anyway. Flying and travel is very stressful for rabbits. The pressure change, noise and unfamiliar surroundings can cause the rabbit to get sick or even die. Getting the equipment you need (cage, food etc) there can be hard and shipping will be very expensive. I highly doubt there are any vets there who know how to properly treat a rabbit in case something does happen. It will be easier on your rabbit to higher a pet sitter. The rabbit will be in her own home and someone will… [cont.]
