What is MMA and the UFC?
Originating from the full contact sport of Vale tudo in Brazil, the UFC was created in the United States in 1993 with minimal rules, and was promoted as a competition to determine the most effective marital art for unarmed combat situations.

Finally, USC is the real 'SC,' thanks to U.S. Supreme Court

Finally, USC is the real 'SC,' thanks to U.S. Supreme Court
During the Lakers' championship run last summer, our melodramatic friend Leo DiCaprio was spotted courtside in what he probably thought was a cap endorsing the "SC" right down the road, the University of Southern California. In fact, he was throwing his celebrity weight behind the other "SC," the University of South Carolina. Unless he was jumping on the Gamecock bandwagon following Carolina's recent win in the College World Series, it was an honest mistake by his personal shopper. As a normal person, you are probably shrugging and drifting off to rendezvous with Leo and/or his comely co-stars in the land of "Inception" right about now. For marketing types, though, the battle of "SC" is a potentially multimillion-dollar distinction, which is why USC (West) filed suit more than a decade ago to force USC (East) to cease and desist putting its own interlocking "SC" logo on merchandise. The Trojans won the last round earlier this year, when a circuit court barred South Carolina from marketing the logo in January (when USC's lawyers also took the opportunity to publicly ridicule the Gamecock as "a goofy little chicken" unworthy of the mark of the Trojan). Indignant, South Carolina vowed to take the fight to the highest power.
But when the U.S. Supreme Court ushered in its new season this morning by tossing out hundreds of cases begging for a final judgment, Carolina's appeal in USC vs. USC was one of the first to go. From the Los Angeles Times:
WASHINGTON — The University of Southern California shut out the University of South Carolina in the Supreme Court on Monday as the justices let stand a trademark ruling holding that the interlocking letters "SC" are the registered mark of the sports teams based in Los Angeles.
The high court turned down an appeal from USC in Columbia, S.C., which since 1997 has sought to register its own "SC" logo for the sale of sports merchandise. [...]
"We are pleased the Supreme Court did the right thing and ended this after 13 years," said Michael Adler, a Los Angeles lawyer for USC. "We'd rather beat them on the football field than fight them in litigation, but if they won this, they could have used this [logo] on any merchandise." [...]
"We have always been 'SC,'" Adler said, "and we were there first."
"We were there first." It's always nice to be reminded that the principles underlying decisions in the highest courts in the land can ultimately be articulated by any kindergartener. (Although certain "casual fans" might not be so quick on the uptake.) In fact, the ruling could be a blessing in disguise for South Carolina, which can finally turn its attention to the logo with real growth potential.
