Thin electronic patches on skin could monitor hearts comfortably
The electrode, that staple of hospitals and medical dramas alike, may soon exit stage left. Researchers have designed a wireless electronic monitoring device so thin it can be applied to the skin like a temporary tattoo. It could one day be used to monitor heart, brain and muscle activity of patients without their even noticing. The research, released Thursday in the journal Science, could rid hospitals of the unwieldy, outdated monitoring systems, which often involve needles, webs of wires and conductive gels. "Such complicated wiring can be inconvenient and distressing for both patients and physicians," Zhenqiang Ma, an engineering professor at the University of Wisconsin who was not involved in the research, wrote in a commentary on the study. Patients with heart disease may have to wear bulky monitors for a month to try to catch rare cardiac events, he explained. A more streamlined, wearable, integrated system would appear to be a relief to all. But designing a chip flexible enough to stretch, squeeze and twist with the skin is no easy task, said study coauthor John Rogers, a materials scientist with the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

PER CAPITAIn Per Capita, Capita comes from a Latin term referring to head. Criminologists and sociologists refer to crimes rates and divorce rates, per capita. For example if there are only 0.01 crimes per capita, this would mean that you have a risk of 1% of being victimised. Criminologists usually use the idea of a rate per 100,000 rather than the idea of per capita. Per capita income is a measure of the wealth of an areas population as well as an indicator of the economic health of that region or country. Per capita income is determined by dividing the total income of a region or county residents by the total population.

Command Start
So I had a Compustar command start installed the other day and it's great but there are a few issues.
Apparently the push start system is causing a nightmare with the bypass system. It starts fantastically with great range but the annoying thing is that the vehicle shuts off immediately after any of the doors are opened. It's supposed to have a 45 second "take over proceedure" So we are always restarting the SF. Not a huge deal but annoying none the less. The tech has mentioned to me that apparently Rav4's do the same thing. Anyone else have any experience with command starts on the SF yet? |

The PetSafe Elite Little Dog Fence is designed for the little guys, particularly those under 12 lbs. with neck sizes of 6-16". The collar that comes with this system is the smallest in the industry and weighs in at only 2 ounces, so its much more comfortable for a small dog. Along with the reduced size, the correction level has been lowered in the Elite Little Dog collar to make it more appropriate for smaller dogs. The choice option for multi-dog households with small and large dogs because the Elite LIttle Dog fence system is compatible with other PetSafe collars. Since the correction level is adjusted on each individual collar, you can set the correction at the appropriate level for each of your dogs regardless of size. The collar battery is proprietary so have a few on hand because you can't just run to the local convenience store to grab a generic if your collar is drained.
500 ft. of 20-gauge Wire (covers about 1/3 acre)
50 Boundary Marker Flags
2 Wire Splices
Lightening Protection Module
PetSafe Deluxe Transmitter Box
Little Dog Receiver Collar
Owners Manual
Small for Small Dogs: The real asset of this system is the mini collar specially designed for dogs that weigh less than 12 lbs. At about half the size of the other PetSafe collars, the smaller collar is more comfortable for little necks (6"-16") and also has reduced correction levels that are more appropriate for smaller dogs.
Individual Correction Levels: Like all PetSafe collars, the Little Dog collar features correction level settings on the collar itself so you can adjust each dog's correction level individually. There are 4 correction levels ranging from tone only to high.
Waterproof: The Little Dog collar is waterproof and fairly durable. The fabric collar strap does absorb water and can develop an odor if not dried out properly. The cloth has a reflective band and the buckle is a quick release clip.
Compatible With Indoor Pet Barrier: The collar can be used with the PetSafe Indoor Pet Barrier (PIRF-100) to keep your dog out of certain areas of your home or off of furniture.
Standard Probes Only: The Elite Little Dog only includes standard collar probes. While this is fine for many pets, if your dog has long or thick fur you may find you need to purchase the PetSafe Long Probes to acheive proper contact with your pet's skin.
Non-Rechargeable, Proprietary Battery: The Little Dog collar is not rechargeable and accepts only the PetSafe proprietary battery. This is the main drawback of this system. You can expect the battery to last about 100 days and can extend the life a little bit by turning the collar off when it's not in use, but this is a pain since you need to loosen the battery compartment with a screwdriver or coin.
Lightening Protection: The Little Dog system includes a lightening protection module. You'll install this module between the transmitter box and the power source to protect the control box in the case of a power surge caused by lightening strike.
Compatible With Other PetSafe Collars: Mix and match PetSafe in-ground fence collars with this system to accomodate each dog in your household. You can add additional PetSafe Elite Little Dog Collars or add a PetSafe Stubborn, for example. Each collar on the system will have it's own correction level setting.
25 Acre Capacity: The transmitter can handle up to 25 acres (5,000 ft. of wire). The field size switch allows you to customize the signal strength to your containment area size; there are three sizes (A, B, and C) that correspond to the acreage or linear feet of wire you install.
Boundary Zone Width: This dial allows you to set the width of the correction zone - the distance from the wire itself to the place where the dog will hear the warning tone. The system is capable of anything from 1-10 feet but 3-5 feet is generally the most effective without eating into the space too much.
1 Year & Limited Lifetime: A 1 year full warranty on the system followed by a lifetime of fixed rate repairs. The cost of the repairs depends on the nature of the problem.

Perfect for many reasons Review by lovecross
Quality Price Value Very impressed with the size of this collar and the general performance of the elite little dog fence system, I recently upgrade this system from one of he larger petsafe brand systems, I also upgraded the wire. The collar that comes with the little dog fence system is about half the size of the other one I had previously had and is much more streamlined to my dogs neck, I am definitely happy with this system.

suprised Review by sephan
Price Value Quality I was surprised when i heard about the electric fence. I thought it may not be safe for dogs but when i read the reviews from other, i was quiet convinced so i thought why i should not give a try. I was more surprised when i found the price. Now my dogs are safe with this fence. i heartly thanks to it. (Posted on 6/28/13)
Reliable and Safe Review by Louie Schrey - Orefiled, PA
Value Quality Price Because we have two very small dogs I wasn't convinced that a wireless fence could be safe for them. My co-worker told me about FlexPetz and that he had gotten the PetSafe Elite Little Dog Fence for his house. I checked it out and figured if his dogs were safe than it would be ok for ours, too. He was right, the fence doesn't hurt or upset them and they are now able to play outside safely. (Posted on 4/9/13)
Wonderful Product Review by Niya
Price Value Quality Who would have thought that you could get a electric fence for this price? I sure didn't and I had no idea that they could be safe for little doggies, too! I am so happy with the fence and the customer service that I received. (Posted on 3/11/13)
My Neighbor Was Right Review by Grammy
Price Value Quality My neighbor bought a fence from Flexpetz and loved it. We talked about it and I went on the website. She said how helpful customer service was and she was right. I had only walked Momma on a leash for years. Now that I have the fence she can run all around with me while I garden. (Posted on 2/15/13)
Great for Front Yard Review by Brittany Hamscher- Whitehall PA
Price Value Quality Our little dog loves to be outside with us. I spend a lot of time in the front yard gardening and chatting with neighbors. I hated to keep our tiny Pebbles inside, but she would never stay in the yard. I certainly didn't want to fence in my front yard with a physical fence, but she is so tiny and I thought that invisible fences were very costly. The PetSafe Elite Little Dog Fence was the absolute perfect solution. We fenced in the front yard and now Pebbles can be outside with us and I still have a beautiful open front yard.

Keeps Mimi Safe Review by Elizabeth Bono (Charleston W.Va)
Value Quality Price When I have owned big dogs, I wanted to keep them in the yard certainly so they were not lost, but also so that others weren't afraid of them. In the case of my 4 pound Chihuahua, Mimi, I was more fearful of her getting hurt if she got out of my yard. But, she is so small that I thought invisible fences would not be safe for her. The PetSafe Elite Little Dog Fence was perfect because the collars are specifically designed with dogs like my Mimi in mind. (Posted on 1/29/13)
Perfect for my little pup Review by Rainbow Jackson, LosAngeles California
Quality Price Value I was very interested in some type of electric fence. But, I was very worried about it because my little dog is only 5 pounds. On the one hand, little dogs can escape from traditional fences. But on the other, I was nervous about the electric currents and my small dog. I was so excited to see this product made specifically for little pups! (Posted on 1/23/13)
Very happy with this fence Review by Gretchen
Quality Price Value I knew this fence was perfect for Lily (my bichon). We decided to get another much bigger dog. I was worried the small dog collar wouldn't keep Belle at home. She is a Golden Retriever. I called flexpetz to see how to handle the situation. They assured me that a big dog collar would work with my existing little dog fence. Both of my girls wear collars that are tailor made for them. I'm very satisfied with my purchases. Thanks! (Posted on 1/16/13)
The fence answer for small dogs Review by Delaney
Price Value Quality I have a rambunctious toy fox terrier. Our daily walks were not enough to tire him out. I have several neighbors who have invisible fences for their dogs. Their dogs are quite a bit larger than Skipper, I was worried that the collars would be too big for him.
I did some research and found this fence. The collar is really small! I was glad to see it was made for small dogs. I did ask my Veterinarian about it, just to be safe. She said the fence was ideal for him and wouldn't cause him any issues.
Skipper has been using his fence for several months. He is happy to run around and enjoy the yard. We are happy because his increased exercise has dramatically improved his behavior. Great product! (Posted on 1/2/13) -
Bueno Review by rosa
Price Value Quality Although I don't know much about dogs or fencing for that matter I had to know what all the fuss was about. My mother my aunt and my grandmother all bought products from flexpetz and they all loved them so I had to give it a try. The little dog fence was more valuable I expected it would be and I am glad to have gotten this word of advice because I now enjoy the same comfort that my family has for some time now and it suits my dog very well. Thank you Flex petz for giving me the same quality and service that you have given my family and countless others.

Perfect for small dogs Review by Allison
Quality Price Value I knew I needed an invisible fence for my Chihuahua, she kept running out my front door. I was really concerned about the collar being too big. She is tiny (8 lbs). The collar really is made for small dogs. She can wear the dog fence collar with no problem at all. The fence was easy to install and training was pretty simple. I am very happy with this fence. It is perfect for small dogs! (Posted on 12/11/12)
Just right Review by Jack
Value Quality Price Before I found out about this site I did not know that dog fences came with this many options, I was on my way to buying a wired dog fence but it was too much money. My dog is very small and I just thought it would not be worth all that money just to keep my little dog in my yard so of course I was happy to find out that I could get something just for small dogs. I ended up liking the little dog fence so much that I got another dog and the indoor fence too for the price I would have paid for 1 wired fence and installation. How's that for a deal.

Just what the doc ordered Review by Oliver
Quality Price Value The first in-ground fence I bought was not made for my dogs type which is small. The collar was too big and the whole thing just seemed as though it was causing my dog pain. I could not bare to see him in such discomfort. Needless to say I returned it and im sad to say that it was not soon enough. I continued to look at my options. Somehow I ended up on Flex petz.com. I searched throughout their site to see if I could find something to fit my needs. I was very surprised to know that I had found exactly what I was looking for and it turned out to be an even better fit than I ever thought I could find. The collar is fit for my dogs size and it's lightweight so I can be happily sound knowing that my dog was in no way hindered by the collar. It also has five correction levels and a tone only mode so I know my dog is not being harmed in any way by extreme shocks. I am completely satisfied with everything except for the non rechargeable battery. I have to buy extras for 10 dollars each time they die out. It can be somewhat irritating to have to keep paying for more but I have found that buying them in bulk helps alleviate that issue. overall it's great for those of us who have smaller pets. I give them an A+ and would recommend this dog fence system to anyone with a small dog.

7 out of 10 Review by Heath
Quality Price Value I love the little dog fence! I can only think of one problem this fence has and it is not how the system works but the fact that the the batteries are not rechatgeable and I now have to purchase more and although I hate having to buy extra, I do like this system and it's capabiliteis.

small pet fence Review by Austin
Price Value Quality I was wanting an in ground fence for my small dog Sifen but no matter where I went they were all very high priced and did not support dogs as small as Sifen. I was about to throw in the towel and just accept the fact that I would have to pay an even higher price for installation of a standard metal wire fence. Well long story short, FlexPetz.com saved the day!

little dog fence Review by marshall
Price Value Quality I have a friend named Mark. He has several dogs he likes to breed & sell. I was getting a puppy from him for my son on his 7th birthday he has been asking for one for a while now. I seen how well he was able to train and keep control of so many dogs at once. So I asked him how he was able to do this? He told me about an invisible fencing system & how great it has been for him to keep them under control. He told me if I was interested check out www.flexpetz.com so I did. I found the perfect product for our new puppy & I love this product. Its has been a great training system. It is also easy to set up, fully portable and very affordable. I am amazed with how well this product works I never have to worry about the safety of our new pup (my son named him) Stampy. I think its cool that I don't have to spend any extra money trying to build & set up an actual fence. Would have cost me way more than I spent & I saved nearly $1000. What isn't great about that?

Saved my little one a few times Review by Douglas Sam
Value Quality Price I live right beside a major road and while we have a fence (a Good one!) my little Maltese would somehow get out. Again and again he'd slip out somehow and I'd be chasing him around the street. And that horrible, horrible feeling every time he got out and I had to walk towards this major road worried I see him dead on the street. I got the Elite Little Dog Fence and problem GONE! Worry GONE. He never leaves the yard now and I have also been able to 'fence' him off from a small section of the yard I don't want him in. Now we have a little 'sister' puppy for him and I've been able to get her protected as well at the same time. She doesn't even consider going out on the road. I can't say how much it has relieved my mind to know they are safe. I love this product and it was definitely worth paying extra for the heavy duty supplies, I have a friend who used a cheaper system and is constantly fixing breaks in the line, so once and done for me.

little dog fence owner Review by mel
Quality Price Value "I have been considering buying a fence for some time now. I was not sure if I could find one that would house my chow so I took a peak around and landed on Flex pets site and there I saw the Little Dog Fence. Automatically I was interested in seeing more. There are tons of features like ACIS chip to prevent random signals from disabling your collar, and it covers up to 12 acres with a limited lifetime warranty. It's great!"

nice quality product Review by Price james
Price Value Quality "Throughout the time of my searching for a good fence to keep my little pug inside
I was noticing all the very high prices and I just could not afford it. Although I did not find something as cheap as I would have liked I still think that the product has paid for itself and some. It works flawlessly and I am glad to have found FlexPets.com!"

Movie News
Are We Getting A PG-13 EXPENDABLES 2?
Nordling here.
I can hear the ranting already. Apparently, Chuck Norris did an interview overseas with the Polish site Gazeta, and in that interview he stated (according to ExpendablesPremiere.com):
In Expendables 2, there was a lot of vulgar dialogue in the screenplay. For this reason, many young people wouldn't be able to watch this. But I don't play in movies like this. Due to that I said I won't be a part of that if the hardcore language is not erased. Producers accepted my conditions and the movie will be classified in the category of PG-13.
Now before people get all a-tizzy, it's not really up to Norris when it comes to the rating, but I wouldn't be surprised if it wound up as a PG-13. It just makes financial sense in today's age; although the first film was successful, PG-13 amps that dollar amount considerably. I'd never heard of an actor, especially one with a supporting role like Norris's, negotiating for that kind of deal, but I have the feeling that they were probably shooting for a PG-13 anyway.
So does this hurt the film in your eyes? Will Terry Crews' Magical Exploding Shotgun be muzzled? Or do you think that it's all a bunch of hooey and that EXPENDABLES 2 will get its R rating? It's odd that Norris would want to stick to this kind of rating, considering his filmography. But apparently he's a fairly moral guy these days, and he wants to make sure kids get to see the film. If this means that stuff won't blow up real good this time out, I'm not going to be happy. Thanks to SlashFilm for the heads up.
Nordling, out.

Fuck that noise. If this shit is PG-13 you can count me out, I dunno how they can do "Action" with a PG-13 esp following up on the first one and how violent that was. also fuck noris
...but you can't say 'take that mofo?'
chuck ain't got it
This sort of nullifies all of that "Chuck Norris" being tough stuff, huh? My heros all like to say "fuck" and "Cunt" every few minutes, at least.
A little cussin' ain't gonna hurt nobody!
This isn't a tv show its a movie made up of badass dudes! Give me a R!
It's ok to beat the shit out of somebody and kill someone on screen. But oh no you said a curse word!!!!! What a cunt.
But Chuck Norris is still a motherfucker.
If true, this blows. A kid friendly Expendables movie is so retarded. Why don't you cut all the actors balls off and have them sewing doilies and drinking tea while they discuss needle point techniques? Arggggghhhhhh! Chuck Norris can take his Total Gym and stick it up his mutha fucking ass sideways.

Seriously. FUCK Chuck. As the late great George Carlin once said...this is the PUSSIFICATION of America. Why don't they make Expendables 2 pre school friendly while they are at it??? Have them all run around in Tu Tus shooting each other with super soakers or having pillow fights in eir PJs? Argggggghhhhhhh!
Apparently good ol' Delta Force doesn't realize that a hard R rating is what fans of the Expendables, and in most cases, action want to see. And of course he's never been associated with anything that might involve profanity..not like anyone has ever cursed while playing World of Warcraft, or let a good old fashioned FUCK THIS, or THIS IS BULLSHIT, out of getting nothing out of the Total Gym. Get real
That even IF it were to get a PG-13, there would almost assuredly be an Unrated DVD released. If so, I hope they dub him over with Sam Jackson screaming FUCK every other word

Chuck should just do those religious movies with the guy from Growing Pains.
by P
I hope this is a misquote. If not, the guy is self-rightious douche and hypocrite.
Man I used to WORSHIP that guy when I was a kid (even though most of his films are fucking horrible). Lone Wolf McQuade alone makes him a film deity. But Chuck Norris....FUCK YOOOOOOOOOU! Fuck your pioused fucking ass and your Walker Texas Ass Ranger bullshit! You made your fortune off of beating people up and killing them onscreen and now you think you're a fucking PRIEST!? Sly should have told him to go fuck himself and made the movie he wanted to make. Now we're stuck with pussified bullshit. Normally I wouldn't really care because we'd have a director's cut but it sounds like Chuck had the screenplay fucking REWRITTEN without swearing at all! So it wasn't filmed and therefore doesn't fucking EXIST!
Cut Norris out of the friggin movie before giving it a death sentence of a PG-13 rating! Seriously. The people that want to see Expendables are EXPECTING an "R" movie. If they get a wimpy, curseless, bloodless, ball-less movie....the word of mouth is gonna tank this flick in the first week. Cause PG-13 or not, mothers are NOT gonna take their 13 year olds to see the Expendables....so any hope the studio has of filling seats with screaming teeny boppers is gonna backfire big time.
What's the fucking point if it's not rated R! It's a throwback to Over-The-Top 80's Action Flicks! Hello!!! McFly!!!? Ya in there?!?!!? Knock! Knock!!
Kind of interesting since I remember watching the Chuck Norris lever on Conan where Chuck back-handed some bitch to knock her out. Kids watching indeed.
Jan. 18, 2012, 12:55 p.m. CST
So Chuck's bitching when he hasn't "played" in a theatrical movie in 20 years?
by alienindisguise
What a douche. First Lucas can't handle criticism and now Norris is offended by bad words. What a fucking week.
Jan. 18, 2012, 12:56 p.m. CST
i have very little interest in this, and just about zero at pg13
by jimmiescoffee
the 1st movie was pretty damn average and should have been MUCH MORE over the top. now this is cutting even more? wow, no thanks.
That type of language is tame compared to what he hears when he roundhouses motherfuckers. Although most are unable to swear at all because his kicks tend to vaporize bodies upon impact.<p>Having said that, I think he's a bitch. This movie needs a hard R and more Bale.
Damn You SOPA!!!
Jan. 18, 2012, 12:57 p.m. CST
Norris should go back and watch some of his own back catalogue of films...
by Stegman84
The majority of which, pre-Walker Texas Ranger, were r rated, and full of graphic violence and coarse language. Fucking hypocrite. Of course, being a foreign press piece, there may be some confusion coming into play here, and Norris may be simply referring to his own character in the film, not the film in its entirety. In which case he's more pansy than hypocrite.
Jan. 18, 2012, 12:57 p.m. CST
I respect his views, but if those are his views then why get involved with the project after reading the vulgar script?
by Cletus Van Damme
Cause ain't no way this movie gonna get a PG-13 rating. If it does, the movie will tank, and Norris will instantly lose his legendary online status as a bad ass. Not that he ever WAS. Why the FUCK did Stallone put him in this movie anyway. Hope he gets shot in the face within the first 5 minutes and yells a PG-13 friendly curse like.... FUDGE! As he falls off a cliff.
I cant imagine the language is that vulgar
Jan. 18, 2012, 1:03 p.m. CST
Oh NO! Someone is promoting POSITIVE character! Head for the HILLS!!!!!
by AshokForgiven
I really don't see a problem here.
But I think you have to be pretty gullible to think he has the power to neuter the whole film. While I'm sure the studio would like a PG 13 film, I think Stallone is smart enough to realize why people liked the first film (And why the didn't too, as evidence from the directors cut)

Chuck Norris erased foul language. His name should be the Eraser in the film.

Seems more likely that Chuck Norris doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about.
by fustfick
He might be teetering on the edge of dementia. That quote sounds like like some D'onofrio dialogue from MIB....barely passing for human.
and I am sure all his claims are true :-) I understand his exercise machine is also not crap.
He has been hanging around Fox News host Mike Huckabee too long. Family values my ass! What we need is some good old fashioned FUCK YOUS! FUCK YEAHS! AND MUTHA FUCKERS! Along with lots of splosions and bloodletting! AMERICA! FUUUUUCK YEAH!
Jan. 18, 2012, 1:08 p.m. CST
Chuck Norris's last movie was 7 years ago. Ergo, his movie career is dead. In other words, he has no rights to make any demands.
by Mr. Pricklepants
You want a movie kids can watch then don't choose a script where people are killed on every other page! You're dead to me. You're even more dead to me than your dead mother.
A band of mercenaries travel the globe, encouraging clean living and good hygiene. Whenever a bad guy cusses in their face, the Acceptables playfully squirts him with a water gun.
...hit Chuck in the head too hard one time too many. The dementia is really kicking in. Why the hell would you take The Expendables, which was a fun throwback in the original and make a neutered sequel just to include a guy who is nothing but a punchline to a joke today? Really Chuck? Harsh language is what is bad for kids? Not seeing someones head blown off so many times they get desensitized? The guy is no role model, he's an obnoxious douche who is so self-important he's unable to comprehend his own stupidity.

I Have A Feeling This Will Only Apply To Chuck's Dialogue
by Acquanetta
And really, did anyone not see this coming? From the beginning, I've wondered how his religious views were going to co-exist in this kind of film. I'm just glad he obviously doesn't have any problem with the violence, since there's no way he would've done it otherwise. I doubt the language thing will end up applying to the rest of the cast members or the film itself. I gotta be honest, though, I always thought the first Expendables movie *WAS* PG-13!! Mainly because the idea came up early in the production and I guess the film's language didn't make much of an impression on me. (I honestly can't even remember anyone saying fuck in the movie, although I'm sure they probably did.)
Jan. 18, 2012, 1:18 p.m. CST
They THINK PG-13 makes financial sense. But not long term
by happybunni
Do you want to make a good, lasting movie? Or do you want to make the movie you set out to make,. then have to water it down and change the feel and tone of it to be less than it was? Stick with R-ratings, they make for better reviewed movies and more dvd sales and more rewatchability.
a huge pussy. Huh, who knew? http://horrorhomework.com/

His statement is a pretty awesome comment on what's wrong with America
by ScreamingPenis
It's okay to smash and destroy -- but as soon as someone utters a four-letter word -- it is completely unacceptable!!
...only animals that chuck norris decides to spare. No really: He is a creationist. Idiot.
I don't give a shit about the language - there wasn't a TON of it in the first film, though the general expectation should be that if people are using dialog that seems inappropriate for the character or scene, it detracts - i.e. a hardened ex-Marine using "freaking" instead of "fucking." No, my real concern is if they tone down the graphic violence here. That's what people are paying their hard-earned dollars for. That's the payday - watching that fucking monster shotgun turning the bad guys into liquid confetti.
Jan. 18, 2012, 1:26 p.m. CST
That really does seem to go against the whole point/spirit of this movie.
by JediRob
I thought Sly understood that. These movies are supposed to serve as a love letter to the fans. To be different than the current crop of action titles.
Jan. 18, 2012, 1:27 p.m. CST
So, behind Chuck Norris' beard isn't another fist?!?!
by Scott Macumber
It's a giant, gaping pit of wuss-out suckitude????? Really? A PG-13 "Expendables 2"? Puke ...
In the first 5 minutes of the movie. And then for the rest of the cast to yell....FUCK YEAH! As they dance around his headless corpse.
Jan. 18, 2012, 1:29 p.m. CST
Pissing on corpses: Good patriotic fun. Swearing? Straight to Hell!
by Jaster Mareel
There is no possible PG-13 for this. Need...excessive.....violence...
We ordered 10 Big Macs and they came with a small DIET coke... That sucks.
Jan. 18, 2012, 1:43 p.m. CST
I'd probably feel more strongly about this if "R-rated" still meant anything
by howlingmudd
But a hard R rating didn't exactly help Conan the Barbarian, Drive Angry, or The Mechanic- and that was basically it for R rated action films in 2011. For that matter, such a rating didn't do much to help the first Expendables to be a good movie, either. Hell, the best action film in recent years- and the one that comes closest to the spirit of 1980s action- was a toned-down PG13 version of Taken.
NORRIS: We need to tear into that gosh-darned military compound and show these dumb-dumbs that America will make them feel not so good. Lock and Load, you sillies.
He cares about depicting a character that doesn't curse, but not about a character who blows people up or shoots people? Fuck him.
I don't disagree with you, but what Taken had that this won't is a compelling story and characters. It's not secret that Expendables is a series meant to exploit classic action heroes and pay homage to 80s movies - neither of which can happen without some excessive/stupid violence. There is nothing else to these films besides nostalgia and excess.
Email Stallone for comment please!!!! This cannot be.....
When people say Liberals are the reason this country has become so PC.... Um bull shit it's religious looney tunes who don't like cursing and other cool stuff. Chuck Norris you suck. Where is Bruce Lee? We need some sense beat into this more beard than man ass hat named Chuck Norris.
What a dick. The best part of the first was the pirate getting chopped in half by Dolph's gun at the start. How are they going to achieve that with PG 13?
Seriously, why would Stallone put up with that shit! Chuck Norris isn't all that cool anyways, yeah he was ok in Texas Ranger, but that was TV. The Expendables isn't for fucking kids. Fuck Chuck that old fucking Politically Correct Fart!
Man, I love my action movies, but Expendables was fucking awful. A-Team movie kicked Expendables' ass and they're STILL not gonna make another one. SHEE-IT
Norris isn't just a fairly moral guy, he's a batshit insane Christian who actively campaigns for the bible to not only be taught in science classes but also history classes, in public schools no less. Seriously, fuck you Chuck...
Yes, but if the violence/language is nothing more than a cheap gimmick, then it's no different than something like Conan the Barbarian. This is why it's hard for me to get too stressed over the rating. The reality is that R rated action just ain't what it used to be. Action films during the past decade were defined by a trilogy of PG13 spy thrillers, while most kids consider the greatest films ever made to be a series of PG13 Batman flicks. I know The Expendables likes to tout itself as a throwback to 80s action, but as I said, Taken came far closer to nailing the right tone and spirit. (Case in point: consider the upbeat, happy ending involving the pop singer.) By comparison, there's really very little difference between Expendables 1 and a typical Statham flick- even down to how the film looks and is structured in a disjointed manner. All of which is to say it wouldn't surprise me if Sly decided to tone things down for the sequel, if only because the real gimmick behind Expendables' success is not the language, but the stunt casting.
Wow, do you guys overreact much? First off, this "scoop" is based off something said in a foreign publication. Could be made up, could be the result of broken english/translation language barriers, could be anything. Hardly the most credible source out there, considering I'd never heard of it until today. Secondly, even IF Chuck really said all that, it mentions NOTHING about the actual content of the movie, action and violence-wise. So it might have a few less "f**k"s or "sh*t"s... so what? As Rob Zombie proves, having all that certainly does NOT make a movie better. Getting rid of it is hardly "toning down" a movie if the action remains guns a-blazing and full of blood and explosions. The fact that we KNOW Terry Crews' gun from the first one is in this should pretty much tell you it's going to be chewing up baddies again in glorious, over-the-top style. Lastly, Chuck Norris hasn't headlined a major theatrical film since Top Dog. The "facts" definitely put Norris back on the map, but hardly gave him the kind of pull to be able to change an entire film on the stipulation that he takes part in it. It's crazy to even think that for a second, folks. Expendables 2 will be Rated R. Mark my words.
1: Movies will change. 2: The AICN comments section will be full of whiny, angry man-children who don't like it when their movies change. Suck it up, boyos. It's one movie out of thousands that isn't going to be R rated.
...and it had a brutal, intense torture sequence. So relaaaaaaaaaax everybody. Go watch a Rob Zombie movie to get your immature profanity fix.
Either you're being sarcastic, or Norris's plan to completely ruin public education has already led to another child being left behind, and by child I mean cunt
...boy all PG-13 movies SUCK, huh? *rolls eyes*
I really don't. A movie is either good or bad and the rating is, to me at least, a diversion. I've watched movies from the 40's and 50's without a single curse word, breast, groin, or gunshot wound to the head and enjoyed every minute of it. I really think that the over-emphasis on gore and profanity (notice I didn't include female nudity ;) is pablum for the brain-dead masses and allows too many filmmakers to make shitty films. I'll be honest. I though the first Expendables was nonsense and a totally forgettable, retro film. It had flashes of 80's brainless fun, but there's a reason they don't make films like that anymore. They're like cotton candy: lots of air and fluff and you can eat it all day and you'll never feel full. There are films, like Irreversible, that almost scream for their R-rating because the use of violence is integral to the film. It creates an atmosphere that reinforces the revulsion you'ere supposed to feel after horrendous acts have been committed. But when I watch Expendables, I don't feel as though the lack of gaping knife wounds (though it would still probably pass PG-13 muster), decapitations, or head shots would really be a dealbreaker. As for nudity, I'll have to say that while I'm a big fan of the female form, a full-on shot is hardly sexy anymore. I almost find it more appealing when a director teases you by hiding or giving short glimpses of an attractive actress instead of having her toss off her rob and screaming, "Bazowwie! Here they are, boys!" There's an art to using violence, nudity, and profanity in a film. Time and again I hear folks whine on the forums (myself included) about how CGI has hurt movies and allows lazy directors to get away with all kinds of shit because whatever they can envision, they can put up on screen. Films were, in many cases, better when Hollywood was a bit more restrictive about what would make it up there. I think that if they're forced to work around a PG-13 rating, and if the director has any imagination whatsoever, they can make a film every bit as satisfying without taking the easy route of adding more (ugh, CGI) blood, a few extra F-bombs, and (as David Alan Grier liked to say) big b-b-breasteses! http://www.ebaumsworld.com/video/watch/81762305/
How modern religious conservatives always give violence a free pass while instead choosing to sweat the small stuff, but that being said--this is a smart marketing move if true. Whenever they listen to you guys and make everything a hard "R" we usually end up with unwatchable, unmarketeable garbage like Punisher Warzone.

But don't ever swear while doing so, because that's just tacky. Gotta love the Chuck Norris world view, eh?
...it was made last summer when Fast Five made $626,137,675 worldwide box-office. Not because of Chuck Norris.
was to create a homage to 80's action flicks. The style is 80's. The actors are 80's. The R rating was 80's. How the fuck are they going to "erase" the bad language, anyways? How do you make demands AFTER the film has wrapped? This sounds bogus.

Yeah, yeah, remember last time everyone was up in arms it'd be PG-13?
by Al
And that did not happen? Not happening here. Chuck is running his mouth.
dropping some f-bombs is immoral but blowing human bodies to bits is ok? you gotta pick your moral high ground and stick with it, chuck. you're a late night punchline and lucky as hell you got to be in this movie. don't kid yourself - no one on earth would pay to see a chuck norris movie these days. i was the biggest chuck norris fan in the world when i was a kid ("ninjas!!!"), but you're not that guy anymore, in any way.
They are going to release the film as pg-13 to hit the widest possible audience, then release the DVD with an "Unrated Cut" convincing everyone to see it again because this would be the "real" movie. It's about how many times they can get you to pay to see the same product.

Chuck Norris is a weeping sopping wet cunt.

Got a lot of love for Chuck, but Expendables needs to be a kick-ass manly R movie.

Not any more. Chuck Norris wouldn't like it.
Chuck is very compassionate, and likes to have a soft bed for a man's balls to rest whiles he's sucking their cock

This short film may give you more of a mangasm
by T 1000 xp professional
Casino Royale was more of an 80's movie than Expendables was in terms of dialogue. I thought Expendables was very cartoonish in it's dialogue especially in the beginning scenes. That wasn't how I remember the awesome 80's action movies to be. How does cartoonish dialogue ("I got a text", etc.) match with foul language and a serious mission to overthrow a dictator anyway? I thought the overall unseriousness of the movie to be very lame.. I enjoyed Rambo 100 times more than Expendables because it was serious the whole time, like 80's action movies used to be. The only humor 80's action movies had were one liners delivered by the lead actor and they did it without smiling. Go listen to your Sirius radio if you need your profanity fix.

Sooo, does Chuck not remember his entire R-Rated movie career?
by Onin Solstice
It's Spielberg when he SUDDENLY realized guns were bad and didnt let Indy shoot anyone anymore! I guess you get morals when you reach 60 years old.
Lee Marvin and Richard Burton were in it - but if there's the slightest chance that there are scenes where Chuck Norris actually drags Jason Statham over to a sink and washes his mouth out with soap for calling Dolph Lundgren an egomaniacal cunt or says 'No scones for you Sylvester, Bruce told me you used a dirty word in the back yard. Arnold, don't stick your tongue out at Bruce. Now boys, it's nearly ten o'clock. Time you were all in bed.' Then I am in!!!!
Jan. 18, 2012, 5:10 p.m. CST
Chuck Norris sucks. He has always sucked. His meme was awful and so were its fanboys. Fuck him.
by golden tribw
You can have pretty rough language now and still get a PG-13, as long as there are no killings and boobies. The violence alone wil earn an R rating. He's just doing spin-control well before the movie comes out so he can say to conservatives "The Hollywood liberals lied to me". But if this is true, it proves the backwards logic of conservatives, "Cussins bad, killins good!"

The Delivery(4min)>The Expendables(1hr.40min)
by T 1000 xp professional
The audience for this are all 18 and over, dont be a fucking greedy pansy Sly, it will backfire. And Norris can fuck off, cuss words never hurt anyone, you cant say the same about violence. Now excuse me while I go illegally download the money grabbing directors cut of the first movie which I already own on blu ray.
You bloody children can't have a good time at the movies without hearing "F" this and "F" that every other word? Grow up. The film will deliver. Kudos to Chuck. He knows that vulgarity isn't necessary for a film to be a great one. I don't often go to the theater...too expensive. I can enjoy films a whole lot more at home nowadays; warm, dry & comfortable. I was probably going to wait for the Blu-ray, but I'm even more likely to see it in the theater now in support of Chuck's morals and values. Are you listening, Sly?
You used to be such a bad ass motherfucker. I remember in Lone Wolf, you showing up to your trailer, popping open your fridge for that cold brew, and you were just thinking of kicking some motherfuckers face in. Is there some rational explanition, in your own words, of Why of all people, You have become the biggest pussy in the world. Seriously, You are a bitch, now. How does it feel, you fucking bitch. You make me sick. Really, worst thing I could have heard all day was this. Fuck, I'd rather hear of a terrorist bomb going off killing innocent women and children, because, I knew that Chuck Motherfucking Norris, would make a movie and kill them with a vengeance. Nope, your just a bitch now, thanks alot Chuck. Fucking sellout.
Jan. 18, 2012, 6:09 p.m. CST
why the fuck did he get involved with this movie?
by soma_with_the_paintbox
If he felt so strongly about these so-called principles, why choose a movie like this? He sounds so desperate for some relevance and/or a paycheck. Whence then the presumption that he can fundamentally neuter the movie from the inside. He is the desperate one, Chuck. He should've either stood by his convictions and turned the offer down or did what thousands of other working actors do and be a professional--firstly, SHUT THE FUCK UP, give the role exactly what is required, collect your paycheck, and put it behind you. When actors get up on the soapbox is where the illusion of celebrity actually breaks down. Why actors continually fail to realize this is beyond me.
I'm talking about Fucking Chuck Norris being a fucking pussy. Your talking about Censorship, When you are obviously not Censored, And talk out of your asshole non-stop. You aren't censored, ya dumbfuck! Oh, let me guess, you will retort with how the internet is censored. Look at all your posts, you are not CENSORED.

Normally I don't get all frothy at the mouth over the whole R versus PG13 debate
by lv_426
But for a movie like The Expendables, it seems silly to go for PG13. What's next, someone is going to try and make a PG rated porno?
Jan. 18, 2012, 6:18 p.m. CST
by Mullah Omar
You are insane if you think that box office nobody Chuck Norris, a supporting character in this film, would somehow have enough clout to demand major changes to the content and tone of EXPENDABLES 2. I only see 3 plausible reasons for Norris' claim: 1) The story is fabricated or mis-translated. 2) Norris is bullshitting the interviewer or overestimating his clout to look like a badass. 3) Stallone offered Norris some minor and insignificant concessions to get Norris aboard, concessions that he Stallone didn't particularly care about and which didn't substantially alter the original vision for the film, but which let Norris think he had some actual pull. I'm anticipating a future comment by Stallone to the effect that "I don't really know what Chuck was talking about when he said that."
More than one or two sentences in please. What is Hollywood, or AICN, doing to you, or anyone else? Letting you act like a whiny, baby, on the fucking internet. What chaps your ass so much? I know the argument, but what is the fucking problem? It's bullshit, through and through. Look at the popular Website, that guy with the glasses, they have been down all day, to protest what? Not being down, when they do it themselves. Sorry, but it is a knee-jerk reaction, and you are a reactionary.
It has NOTHING to do with it. They wouldn't rewrite because fucking Walker Texas Ranger says so. They want to sell it to teenagers. No movie costing over 25 million is rated R. No movie. Warner DID some gamble with Matrix and Watchmen, but they won't do it again. Never again.

FUCK CHUCK! Booo!! Hisss!! The last one was awful, but I loved it because it had balls. Now it's just going to be awful? This movie HAS to be R-Rated to be good

And Agree with others. Chuck is most likely full of shit, but best to react accordingly just in case.

Remember when he ate a rat that was put in a bag and tied to his face in Missing in Action?
I don't care what the t-shirts that ripped off the Bill Brasky sketch from SNL say.

I don't think the rating matters. If kids want to see it, they'll find a way.

At least that's how I was. You have no idea what I had to go through to see Hostel.
The movie has not been rated yet...This still has a chance to be an R rating. You should be more pissed that Total Recall is a PunkAss PG-13... So calm The Hell down.

by T 1000 xp professional
Chuck had balls. Sly STILL has balls. End of story.
Think they'll listen? Nope. It will be more of, "Let's hope ____ knocks it out of the park. What do you guys think?" It's so transparent and disingenuous. Everyone sees through that mealy mouthed crap.
Because, you know, turning a hard-R franchise into a PG-13 kiddie friendly estrogen-fest worked out brilliantly for Robocop and Conan the Barbarian and Terminator Salvation and Die Hard and oh, wait...
Can a PG-13 film be bloody? I mean, people were being blown in half in the first movie. I thought the whole point of this franchise was throwing every action star into absurd situations where the only solution is obscene amounts of graphic, blood splattering, bone breaking violence. What I don't get is Chuck Norris has to be reading this script where it says something like, "Barney rips the henchmans head off, blood squirts everywhere," or something like that and it's OK but then when the character says, "Fuck you," he's all, "OMG BAD WORDS!" What the Hell is wrong with a person who is perfectly fine with seeing a fellow human being torn apart but isn't OK with a so called dirty word? It's like these hardcore Christians who're so against violent films or video games but it's OK to show Jesus Christ getting the ever loving shit beat out of him. People are stupid.

I consider myself to be a man trying to seek God. But Expendables was
by sweeneydave
nothing more than a crappy movie with really big balls. Anyone can give us snazzy bloodless action scenes these days. If Expendables 2 gets neutered, what are we left with? Nothing that I want to see. The only point of putting Norris in the film was to see him mix it up with the rest of the boys. If his presence in the movie means the greatest action stars of our days - past and present - are going to be baking cookies for 105 minutes, then I'd rather them keep Norris far away.
Jan. 18, 2012, 11:15 p.m. CST
Rambo 1..2..3..RATED R! And my dad still took me to see them as a kid because...
by King Conan
Sly didn't really CURSE in his movies back in the day and since he wrote or co-wrote most of his movies, the characters didn't either. My dad was was big on not letting me and my little brother see movies that had a lot of nudity or vulgar language but EXCESSIVE VIOLENCE didn't bother him so because of that fact we were able to see the Rambo films. Just make the movie ULTRA VIOLENT, drop less F-bombs and it can STILL be rated R for violence and everyone's happy! If not..then you have officially SOLD OUT Sly. When you need us, the FANS...you give us what we want. You make a new Rocky, you make a new Rambo. You give us the Expendables with major violence and great old school characters, you make it Rated R and call it old school...AND NOW THAT YOU'RE BOUNCING BACK YOU START DOING WHAT YOU WANNA FUCKIN' DO! That's such bullshit. Thanks for using your fans to become box office relevant again and then giving us the finger.
Wow... shame on Chuck for standing by his own morals and integrity. by snomusic I think all the words tossed at him belong on the tossers - and I mean that in the English sense as well. ^^ You just aren't getting it. Chuck should have never signed onto this movie if those were his feelings. It wouldn't have been a huge loss to simply not have him. You don't walk into someones elses house, put your feet up and tell them how to run things.
Kicked Chucks balls into his stomach a long time ago. Chuck is a punk bitch and Bruce made him so.
Jan. 18, 2012, 11:59 p.m. CST
Honestly, I never really got the point of the first Expendables either.
by Orbots Commander
Sure '80's action shoot em ups were fun for their day, but who in their right mind would do anything new with that genre, other than spoof it or send it up? Thankfully, thrillers and action films have moved further along from those Sly/Chuck/Arnold flicks. Sly couldn't make an action film as great as Inception or one of the Bourne movies, on his best day.
Jan. 19, 2012, 12:04 a.m. CST
In my opinion, the films that were the nail in the coffin
by Orbots Commander
for those '80's shoot em ups, were (ironically) Die Hard and Batman '89. DH took a standard Hitchcockian premise, cat and mouse thriller in closed quarters, filled it with great cinematography and witty dialogue...and tada! It proved that action films didn't need to be stupid and lowest-common-denominator.
Jan. 19, 2012, 12:52 p.m. CST
I think The Matrix was a happy surprise...and times are different.
by conspiracy
First of all...Matrix series really should have been PG-13...there is really not much there that warrants a R rating. That not withstanding it was the rare R movie that made back it's budget. Most probably because it had broad appeal beyond the film itself; everyone loved it's slick look, soundtrack and action/sci-fi combination. It really was a trend setting sensation if you remember..in marketing, production values, aesthetic and merchandising. Lightening in a bottle. That said times are different...and much tougher. Movie attendance is at a 16 year low, far fewer people are going and dollar for dollar movies are making much less return than they did a decade ago as the cost of making and marketing them are dramatically higher. If the first Matrix had bombed, or done much less than the $170M Domestic/$80M cost it had done...you can bet your bottom dollar the next two would have taken out a fuck, or edited a scene and begged for the PG-13. Expendables has a MUCH narrower appeal...it isn't setting fashion trends, it doesn't have a cutting edge soundtrack, it's marketing is decidedly old school and by and large women will not be going to see this film...like Matrix managed to accomplish. Expendables demo is almost entirely male...and but for a narrow slice of the 25-55 male audience that actually still goes to the movies (most people I know do not), it's core audience will be 13-21yr old males. THAT under 18 crowd in fact makes up the bulk of the total movie going audience these days...and the smart film maker or exec is NOT going to risk a film with a budget over $100,000,000 by making it "R" and loosing those dollars. Not when they are so hard to get in the first place. And sure...kids always sneak into R films...but that doesn't count when analyzing a films domestic box office returns...and those numbers are ALL that matter.
Let's see: - Political jerk offs who in this case are liberals being all up upset about conservatives - check. It's election time, so Americans will take any chance to campaign their side. - Evolutionists crying and moaning and whining because more and more people don't believe their unscientific fairy tales about the origin of life anymore - check. It's election time in America, which for Americans is pretty much a religion, and God forbid non-political religion gets any more attention than it already is... that just might fuck things up for the grand atheist proselytizing campaigns they've got going once they decided to finally drop all pretenses. But they're an insecure bunch, so they'll take the opportunity to lash out at anything that threathens their fragile little bubbles even if its totally unrelated to the article. - Fools surprised to see Chuck Norris isn't what all the internet memes made him out to be. Thus turn their anger on him. What? Did he start all that shit? Did you want him in this movie? Then you play by Chuck Norris' rules least he backhand your foul mouths so fast a cunt will appear where your teeth should be! - Thinking Norris has anything to do with the PG-13 rating... The first film was PG-13, Norris wasn't involved, and for the most part it gave us a decent amount of violence. And cussing won't make it better. I know sometimes calling each other niggers and fags and throwing around the F-word a lot on X-Box LIVE makes your space marine and American war games more realistic and manly to you, but considering that most of the ones using such words are 9-12 year old little boys, suddenly cussing up a shit doesn't seem so manly anymore... Oh! Look at me! I'm as good at saying stuff as my 2nd brother! Face it, you're living in the past. And this film is only going to be as throwback as possible so as to not affect the bottom line which is to open this film to as many teenagers as possible, who by the way were the same ones sneaking into the 80's R rated films to begin with and buying them on home video, and the studios were counting on such! So they figured now, fuck it, let's just give em what they want anyway.
The first film was rated R, you dumbcunt. The second you said "The first film was PG-13", you lost all credibility. You, sir, are an internet "troll". Say hi to your mother for me.
don't be such a douche! sly's films kick ass the bourne were lackluster at best and inception wasn't all that great
A good movie - even an action movie - doesn't rely on foul language (unlike talkbackers). In fact, it challenges writers to be more clever in their work. And the addition of swearing doesn't make an average movie any better. Nor does pools of gore. How can you all be so narrow minded?
add Carl Weathers and Mr. T to the mix. Weathers deserves it. Creed and Rocky reteamed.

In the 1st dialog box i have NEXT button so when I click that it has to hide the 1st dialog box and move to the 2nd dialog box..where i have some controls in 2nd dialog box.can any on help me...
I have never tried to hide a Modal dialog...not sure how it can be done. Anyway, it seems to me you don't need to hide the dialog but destroy the first one and create the second one. You can use EndDialog to terminate a modal dialog. But MFC has its own mechanism to create your own wizard, have a look at this class CPropertySheet. I am sure you can find thousand of examples, this is one. Hope it helps. |

I would like the world to buy a cokeThis is a business profile of Roberto Goizueta, Chairman and CEO of Coca-Cola. The book chronicles Goizueta's career, from his first job managing Coke's Cuban production plant to his appointment as CEO in 1981 and up to the present, when he will soon celebrate his 65th birthday and needs to think about who should be the next CEO of Coke. The book describes how Goizueta fled his native Cuba in 1960 with only $20 in his pocket and 100 Coke shares in his suitcase (shares worth $2 million today); how he started working for Coke in Miami and later moved to Atlanta in 1964 to become Coke's youngest-ever VP, in charge of technical research and organizational development; and how he became CEO in 1981, having been chosen by then-CEO Robert Woodruff, even though Goizueta was considered the darkhorse: he's an engineer with a production background in a marketing-driven company, but he had a close personal friendship with Woodruff. The book also describes Goizueta's management of Coca-Cola: he spearheaded the globalization of Coke, successfully: in the "Cola Wars" between Coke and Pepsi, it's not taste that matters, it's market share, and Coke wins easily with greater market share in every country around the world. He also survived the "New Coke" debacle as well as several distracting acquisitions (especially Columbia Pictures movie studio). And the book describes Goizueta's management style: he has been characterized as both charismatic and as conducting "the Spanish Inquisition". |
