Murray's Cheese Bar
Manhattan – Greenwich Village
Murray's Cheese Bar

Murray's Cheese Shop started out in Greenwich Village in 1940 and has been moving on up to bigger and brighter spaces in the neighborhood ever since. Murray's Cheese Bar is a natural outgrowth of the business, a place where you can sit and savor world-class cheese along with a well-curated list of wines, craft beer and hard cider. The long, narrow room has white subway-tiled walls, creating an echo chamber effect when all the tables and red bar stools are occupied. Who knew so many people were obsessed with cheese? Owner Rob Kaufelt and chef fromager Tia Keenan also serve salads (most with cheese, of course), sandwiches, dips, spreads, pasta and oddball-but-good things like butternut squash kugel with cottage cheese, maple syrup, currants and toasted corn flakes.

Hello, Shos.Vivaldi has also been on my list of things to buy ever since they played it recently ( a couple of weeks ago maybe) on Beethoven.com . After hearing some more music, I think I'll relax the condition that it should be a violin concerto ONLY for Mozart. Any composition by that man played with any instrument is amazing! Maybe I'm just stating the obvious here, but, as I said, I'm just a newbie.Originally posted by shostakovich:
Hello Navneeth. This is Shos, and I approve the message of DavidS. I first thought of Vivaldi's Seasons when I read your message.
I'll try my best to help.
It's also good to have you on board for other, personal, reasons. On the Culture Connections Board I'll sometime be posting thoughts about religions in general. I will include Hinduism and Buddhism, of which I know only the shallows. If you see something that needs commentary or correction, jump in (especially if it's only commentary ).
I would've been in dreamland at that hour. But before I went to bed, I heard a nice Schubert composition (don't remember the name, though).Originally posted by Shapley:
Right now, Mendelsohn's Violin Concerto in E Minor is playing. This particular version is by the Hanover Band. It's pretty good.

Young says he hopes that teams can realize that he's a free agent because of his off-field problems, not his on-field performance.
Unfortunately for Young, his on-field performance wasn't nearly as impressive as he would like to believe. Let's not forget that he has more interceptions than touchdowns in his career, and a career QB rating of 74.4.
But still, VY10 is a bit delusional:
We'll see if he gets a phone call, since there are a lot of teams out there in desperate need of a QB, and this year's draft isn't anywhere near as loaded as last year, when it comes to the QB position.
Personally, I think Vince is done. He seems to think differently, however, and it only takes one team desperate enough to try to revive his career.
Where do you think he'll end up? Jacksonville? Arizona? Or a golf course somewhere?

Moderated by Dolby's Glen Kiser, the panel featured primarily current and former Skywalker Sound executives, who praised "Dolby Atmos," which adds overhead arrays to theatrical surround sound. Dolby lists 10 post-production facilities equipped for Atmos—including Skywalker. "It's almost like going from black and white to 3D color in a sense. You have this whole hemisphere now to work with," says sound designer Erik Aadahl ("Argo," "The Tree of Life," "Transformers: Dark of the Moon"). Dolby's Stuart Bowling explains that the overhead speakers widen the sweet spot, so that more audience members experience surround sound.
Below are five top tips for independent filmmakers from the panel's sound gurus. The full video can be found here.
1. Too many sonic elements can be confusing.
Skywalker Executive in Charge Phil Benson ("Punch-Drunk Love," "Contact") concurs. He likens asking the audience to follow too many sonic elements at the same time to asking them to focus on several different depths of field simultaneously. "Imagine if you could have shallow depth of field with four different areas on the screen. Your audience wouldn't know what to focus on. And that's kind of like telling all these different [acoustic] departments that it's only them who should focus on covering, being the supporter of what [the director is] trying to accomplish in the scene," he says.
2. Decide if Sound or Music Should Do the Heavy Lifting in Every Scene
Two-time Academy Award-winner Randy Thom ("Flight," "Apocalypse Now"), Director of Sound Design at Skywalker Sound, says, "It's a common frustration among both sound designers and composers in movies that too many directors wait too long to decide whether music or sound effects will play the principal role in a given moment, or a given sequence in a film." Instead, either sound or music does the heavy lifting in a given scene, so it should be clear upfront whether it is the sound designer or the composer who bears primary responsibility for each scene.
3. Concentrate on Capturing Good Sounds on Set or in the Field
A corollary of engaging with sound early is that by the time you start post-production, you should already have your best sounds captured on your shoots. "There's usually a lot more drama to be had in real-world sounds than there is in highly processed ones," says Thom. Skywalker's Will Files ("The Tree of Life," "Take Shelter") concurs: "When I started working for Randy [Thom], one of the first things he told me was that the best money you can spend as a sound designer is a good microphone."
Coordination between the production sound team and the post-production sound team is crucial, Files stresses. Too often, the post team doesn't even know what B-roll is available from location. On both "Mud" (2013 Sundance Film Festival) and "Prince Avalanche" (2013 Sundance Film Festival), Files was able to use extensive sound effects from location because of early conversations with the production team about capturing additional material. "The sound guys go off with stereo microphones and record these beautiful, amazing, one-of-a-kind Mississippi frog chirps and all this stuff that had a real authenticity," he says.
5. Save Budget by Telling Story Aurally
When telling part of your story visually is economically impractical, engaging the audience's imagination through sound is an affordable alternative, the panel's experts agree. When director J.J. Abrams was tasked by Paramount with making "Cloverfield" look like a $75 million film on a $25 million budget, part of his solution was Files. "The way you make it is that you only show the monster as little as you can get away with," says Files. "And so in order to make that work, you have to figure out how to sell the audience on the idea and sell the drama of the moment without actually showing it. And I think that actually the film was much stronger because they had to do that, because the audience had to imagine what this crazy thing was doing when they were just hearing it off in the surrounds."
6. Don't Speak During a Great Sound Sequence
Making room for sound to tell the story means leaving space in the dialog. "There's something about human speech that compels us to listen to it, so if somebody is talking in a scene, even if there are lots of other competing sounds, you're going to be doing your darnedest to understand what's being said," Thom cautions. "Almost all great sound sequences have fairly sparse dialog."
7. Don't Assume Top-Quality Post Is Only for Blockbusters
A common misconception is that access to top-quality post-production facilities such as Skywalker Sound is limited to the sort of blockbusters that Lucasfilm produces. Not so, says Benson. "We have historically been this kind of two-headed monster. We work on the largest films, but we also work on some of the absolutely smallest films." When Benson is approached by a filmmaker, Skywalker takes on the project only if someone within the company is excited about that particular film. The director's relationship with her sound designer should be as intimate as that with her DP, Benson counsels. "Beasts of the Southern Wild" and Sundance 2013 film "Twenty Feet from Stardom" did their post at Skywalker.
"Stardom" director Morgan Neville describes Skywalker as "filmmaker heaven." Neville stayed on the facility's ranch during post-production on the musically rich documentary, which showcases back-up singers. "I'd heard that they work with indie filmmakers, but I kinda thought, 'Yeah right! I could never afford to do that,'" he recalls. "But they saw the film and they loved it and they bent over backwards to make it happen," he tells Indiewire.
8. Learn from the Greats
Speaking about the best sound in film history, the experts' consensus is that what makes cinematic sound great is its support of the story. That, more than any particular technology, defines their favorites. Here are their top picks:
Aadahl: "Apocalypse Now"
Benson: "Eraserhead"
Ben Burtt (Lincoln, E.T.): "King Kong"
Files: "The Conversation"; "The Godfather"
Thom: "Star Wars"
Dolby's latest is on full display in Ang Lee's "Life of Pi", stil in theaters. The film is one of the 21 Atmos-enabled feature films released so far. Try to catch it at one of the 72 Atmos-equipped theaters around the world.

A fascinating and useful article. Many thanks. To the sound aficionados on the site, can anyone give me some non-US 'greats?' Every film cited is American but as a teacher of International Baccalaureate Film Studies, I really need to show students skilled sound work from around the globe. I currently use M (d. Fritz Lang, 1931) and Delicatessen (d. d. Jean-Pierre Jeunet, 1991) as an alternative as well as several short, short films (less than 10mins) but what else would you recommend?
Sophia | February 1, 2013 11:01 AM
Thanks for posting this! I missed out on the panel while at a screening for Prince Avalanche - another small film done beautifully at Skywalker. These guys are truly great supporters of independent film.

Product Type: Apple MP3 players

Ipod Touch: Music and Video in your pocket
Apple iPod touch 32 GB
Member Name: illusiveman
Apple iPod touch 32 GB
Date: 25/04/13
Advantages: 32gb internal storage, built in wi-fi
Disadvantages: Only Itunes can be used to transfer files, no flash support
-When I bought the product-
Around late December 2010 I decided I was going to buy myself an MP3 player, having previously owned an Ipod Nano I decided that I would buy myself an Ipod Touch.
The reason I wanted an Ipod was so that I could watch videos on it while travelling and also listen to music.
The Ipod Touch (4th Generation) is available with internal storage sizes of 8GB, 16GB, 32GB and 64GB, I own the 32GB version which I believe at the time cost me about £200 - £220.
The 32GB version of the Ipod Touch has plenty of storage for me to store my music and videos on, as the Ipod only supports certain formats of video so I had to convert my videos into the MP4 file format, I could also reduce the quality a little bit to make the files smaller and to fit more on the Ipod.
The touch screen is also very responsive and excellent for typing and playing games, although I find the buttons can be a bit small if you're fast at typing.
Wi-Fi is also built in which can be really handy for when you are travelling and find a Wi-Fi hotspot, Safari is included as the default web browser which is okay for me but doesn't have flash support so various websites may appear without pictures and videos.
A music player comes pre installed on the Ipod and allows you to play all the music you may have stored on the device, it also allows you to view music by artist, album, song name so that you can easily find the song your looking for, shuffle is supported so that you can listen to your music and not have any idea which song will be playing next, you can also repeat a specific song if you really like it.
A video play is also pre installed and allows you to play your videos in a similar manner to the music player, like the music play it allows you to view videos in
Games and apps can also be downloaded and installed on the Ipod, apps can also be sorted into folders to make them easier to find, there is also a Game Centre included to allow you to access high scores to games you may be playing, I believe you can also add people as friends so that you can compare your scores to theirs.
Apple's app store is also built into the Ipod to allow you to download apps, some of which are free and others cost between 69p and £3 (I'm not sure on the exact price ranges), you can also search for a specific app if you already know what you are looking for.
The front facing camera on the Ipod Touch is only 0.3MP (Mega Pixels), the rear facing camera is only 0.7MP so I don't usually take a lot of pictures on it, the video camera allows you to record videos in resolutions up to 720p (or a resolution of 1280x720p), I've only recorded a couple of videos but anything I've recorded has been of excellent quality.
The battery is built into the Ipod so would be very difficult to replace and would be expensive to have it fitted by a professional due to the time it would take for them to take the Ipod apart.
As the Ipod includes the standard USB dock connector port the only cable that can be plugged in is the cable that comes with the Ipod, if this cable is lost or damaged a replacement would need to be ordered before files can be transferred.
The screen can also be easily damaged and is very difficult to replace and would be expensive to have a professional replace it (my friend was quoted £50 to have a screen replaced on his Ipod of the same model).
Itunes is the only way of transferring music, videos and photos to the Ipod as the files are re organized in a special database structure, I've also found that Itunes automatically synchronizes files unless
switched off.
The price of an Ipod touch can vary depending on the internal storage size (mine cost roughly £200) so can be expensive, and if it stops working it would cost more money to have it repaired.
-Overall Rating-
I have owned this Ipod for just over two years and has been well worth the money I paid for it at the time, although I don't use it as much I like to use it to listen to music occasionally, I would highly recommend anyone that is looking for a device like this to buy one of these (I believe the newer models are cheaper than £200), overall this has been a very useful device and give it a 4/5 rating.
Summary: very good media device

And, why not? The only reason we think of Santa Claus as being in red and white is because those were the Coca Cola corporate colours way back when Coke used Santa heavily to sell its product. Pushed it so hard, that the majority of North America adopted the Coke Santa in red and white as the its 'official' Santa. Nicely done, WestJet... eh?

Granted... but there were several different colour schemes for Santas pre-Coke. After Coke's campaigns the red & white scheme - specifically the red coat with white trimmings on a jolly fat man - became the uniform. Several years ago I was in Whitehorse (Yukon territory) and was warmly greeted by a Saint Nick based on local traditions. Thin, wearing buckskin boots, and a long fringed multi-coloured coat heavily beaded, and sporting quills.

AP Issues Style Guidelines On 'Jeggings,' 'Jorts'
By editor
Originally published on Fri June 15, 2012 8:56 am
Good morning. I'm David Greene. The Associated Press Stylebook, often called the journalist's bible, is the media's go-to guide for things like grammar and punctuation. The book is often revised to keep up with vernacular, and its 2012 edition includes a chapter on fashion. In a Twitter chat this week, the AP decreed that it is OK to use the word jeggings to talk about the trendy hybrid of leggings and jeans. But they added that it is not OK to use the term jorts, as in jean shorts. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

This was a fun one to make. Creates a giraffe text effect. Increase or decrease the size of the brush to adjust the size of hair. The banding can be adjusted as well. The action gives you control over the output. Hope you like it. The bigger the font the better. Take care, Hatch.
Unzip...load the brush and action. PLEASE make sure you load the brush and have it selected before you start the action. If not, the last brush you used will be the hair on the text. Not a good thing! :-)

Overall Rating 9/10 (Linda Coffey US Nov 2010)
"Spent 2 nights at this hotel and enjoyed every minute. What a little gem of a place. Great location, loved the San Blas area and the church near to the hotel is a must see. All the staff were wonderful, friendly and very helpful. Stayed in the junior suite with a fantastic view from our bedroom over Cusco plus outside our door was a terrace with table and chairs. Highly recommended.

Yeah no, look, you've got to take these things one day at a time, but Channel Nine's epic, iconic Clichélympics journey is right on track for gold.
Never mind the disappointing London results of Australian athletes. There are only 22 million of us Aussies and we usually punch above our weight in the world, but it's swings and roundabouts, the results are on the scoreboard, and we'll just have to take our lack of gold in our stride.
At any rate, Channel Nine has taken up the slack and stepped up to the plate. The Olympic broadcaster is making a concerted bid for a new Clichélympics PB. And isn't that all you can ask of anyone at the Games – that they do their best?
Despite being burdened by both the weight of history and expectations, Nine's London team is playing out of its skin in an event which has stood test the test of time. The likes of Williams, Sutcliffe and Warren are putting to shame some of the greatest individual exponents in sporting cliché history.
Well, you know what they say. A champion team will always beat a team of champions, and Channel Nine has become a real role model, setting the ball rolling on the world's greatest stage where there is absolutely no room for error.
The writing is not on the wall yet, but Blind Freddie can see that Nine is going to give the Clichélympics world record an almighty shake. It's a ding dong struggle with pretty much every other sports broadcaster in the world, but the statistics speak for themselves. It's still a game of inches and it ain't over till it's over, but Nine has thus far managed to cram more clichés per sentence than any of its bitter rivals.
Their Achilles heel is Leila McKinnon, who has the annoying habit of speaking real English. You can tell she's not a full-time sports broadcaster, and her lack of cliché expertise may yet come back to haunt Channel Nine.
But for the most part, Nine is lifting the roof off the stadium with its constant, unrelenting, never-say-die dedication to the art of cliché. Just tuning in for five minutes each morning is worth the price of admission. You honestly could not have written a better script, even if the occasional London rain has dampened some people's enthusiasm.
Of course, this event is a marathon, not a sprint. When all is said and done, Nine has a trump card in ageless broadcaster Ken Sutcliffe. He is a legend, the real deal, a battler with the heart of the champion, and when the team is on the ropes, he's the man they turn to.
Kenny seems to have a new lease on life. He remains the heart and soul of the team, and each morning, he dishes out dog-eared old phrases like the wily old veteran he is. When he goes out, you can sure it'll be on top. Unlike most of the Australians competing in the actual sport at these Olympics.
Anyway, as Ken says each morning, in a brilliant sign off combining two well-worn sayings as only he can: "Until we meet again, bye for now".

And now, so as not to put all our eggs in the one basket, here's a picture of a chicken.
Most commented
Mahhrat says:
Fair suck of the sauce bottle, when they can't scream "CATHY… CATTHHHYYYY!!!!" for 30 seconds, what do you expect?
Actually, James Brayshaw (who to me is the best cliche'r on the planet right now) was doing some rowing and explained that they don't have control over the imagery. Given that, I'll give them a little slack - they probably read up on all the Aussies but not everyone else, only to find we're watching pretty much everyone else.
In a way, it's a little humbling - I think Australia loves to get bigger than it's boots (which, globally, are tiny, tiny small).
KH says:
The chicken would be a better commentator than anyone on channel 9. Hell, it could probably organise a better telecast than anyone at channel 9. Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, the chicken could probably run channel 9, or at least replace the galah thats doing the job now.
Badjack says:
I watched the mid afternoon show called London Gold. After about 20 minutes I was so smothered in molasses that was spewing out of Mark Nicholas's mouth I had to turn the TV off and go and take a shower. Maybe the chosen Broadcaster needs to be able to employ the quality sportscasters like McAvaney, Cometti, Morphett, Lane etc for the O'lympdicks.
Amber says:
Chilche gold medal contention - from James Brayshaw during the rowing. "They're going stroke for stroke" when the margin was more like a half a length (huge in rowing terms in that boat category) between the two crews he was talking about. Thank goodness James Tomkins was there, talking some sense.
julie says:
Its horrible. they are all horrible. my cliche olympics tick started on the opening ceremony, when Eddie said twice over a few minutes, 'There's no doubt about it '... Mark Nichols emitting a particular growl in his voice (funnily, same as Gary on Masterchef) when he tries to raise the excitement. It doesnt work. And now i'm starting to question, that perhaps it is just hearing their voices, despite the words ... wondering are those voices the same old has-beens present for years in my sport watching life, just getting sadder, or am I growing up?
John says:
I'm taking the Nine coverage one day at a time, but for me the highlight was Ray Warren's commentary in the swimming relay final that Australia actually won. He kept talking about the challenge from the Netherlands, where he pronounced it to rhyme with Michael Jackson's home, Neverland.
Lurker says:
I swear one of the Rugby commentators called one of the athletes Ferrari from Italy this morning.
The problem is the coverage is just cheap, all they have done is used their contracted current commentators - more than 50% have no idea what they are talking about - Brayshaw, Slater, even Rabbits.
Instead of paying for commentators that know the sport they are reporting on they just figure the aussie public is too stupid to know. What an inspiration for our young, the media covering it dont give a damn so why should we.
From the looks of it , especially the swimmers, most didnt even break their PB's or trial times, perhaps they have spent 4 months planning the parties.Anyone else get the feeling this olympics is just one giant circlejerk between the aussie athletes and the organisers.
Surely they are having a laugh,...
Zopo says:
The presentation is a shocker especially compared to foxtel.
Why do Ch 9 insist on having non sport people present sports. Ok the "Today" team are ok for the morning but the formula doesn't really work for the Olympics.
Why not leverage more of the ex Olympians etc, or is Karl, Leila and the rest of the crew on too big a wicket. To be honest it looks as though ch9 gave a bunch if mates a a holiday and then said while your here talk about the Olympics.
Lurker says:
I was told by Ant not to say this after his article was written but he has been suffering the bird-flu for some time now, he has an egg shaped hole right above his quads that has really affected his preperation for months.
Hmm says:
Now the real question.
Would BRUUUUUUCE have been better or worse?
Im really torn on this one
joe Logan says:
Yeah no obviously, it has definitely been a new era in cliches and buzz words. Has there been one swimmer being interviewed by one interviewer not say "thanks guys"? "cracking" which was introduced in AFL in 2012 has sneaked into London, and the more daring "ripping" has also been used, albeit with a little fear. "fantastic " stands strong and above all, describing anything anywhere anytime. How about the commen…haha.tators..ha ha laugh? I will not mention the snow white teeth and the bigger than usual exaggerated smiles.
Silver is not good enough says:
We don't see enough of 'old sexy eyes' Kenny Sutcliffe. The male model from Mudgee is a legend of sportscasting.
On another note I'm starting to get just a little bit pissed off at the lack of gold that has so far come our way. If we don't grab at least two tonight and enter the top ten of the medal table I'm afraid my interest in the Olympics will be over. A bit like how I leave the ground in disgust at some stage during the last quarter when Essendon is getting beaten.
MP says:
I'm over the swimming. I'm probably over it because I keep seeing the same races over and over, thinking I'm watching a NEW race. Can someone just provide a caption saying: Repeat.
I watched an hour of yakking about how Manguasson lost by 1/100th of a second, and how he will have alot to prove next time etc etc. He'll do great in his next race, and how his family/friends/trainer/fellow team-mates all think he will do great in his next race.
They then showed what I thought was the next race with Manguasson, and I thought "poor bastard, he lost again by 1/100th of a second".Is it just me? Just sign-post it better.
Simstar says:
Great article - CH 9 are really really, no really poor. Karl Stefan-idiot is a smiling baboon (apologise to all the baboons reading this) and 'Rabbit' Warren calling the swimming like a Rugby League match - hopeless!! He did manage to get a reference to horse racing in there also when describing a swimmers performance - amazing….I would have thought at least the London games were SPECIAL!! (where is Bruce?)
Dan says:
Isn't it wonderful to see a young writer like Ant, really take the bit between his teeth and run with a story like he has here? I know I speak for all Australians when I say we are all really proud of you Ant. You never gave up, worked hard and hoped for the best and really isn't that what makes Australians unique?
mb23 says:
Channel Nine are more interested in showing us ads than the Olympics. I am sick of watching our swimmers sooking and moaning about their poor results. Love to watch more volleyball, boxing, sailing, table tennis etc etc etc.
muz says:
thank goodness for FOX sports, a profewssional sports broadcaster, with the audience in mind.
Bitten says:
Hee hee, that was a good one. I haven't watched a lot of these Games but the limited amount I have seen has led to some severe eye-rolling/mock-retching at the sugared nonsense they dish up.
At the end of the day, it's about being Australian and doing your bit for the national pride of this great country of ours, no?
Ricardo Jones says:
With James Brayshaw and Ray Warren I swear I've heard more about which rugby league and AFL teams the athletes support, rather then the actual sports they contest.
Gian Rooney said one of the swimmers may be frustrated because she is a St Kilda supporter and they are a frustrating team to follow. Yeah, she's lining up to make the finals of the Olympic games in a sport she has dedicated her life to and the only thing she can think about is how the AFL team she supports frustrates her. Get real.
We get commentary like that and apparently our greatest ever swimmer Ian Thorpe is on English TV, and getting huge wraps in the process for his balanced and well articulated opinions.
Steve says:
I haven't even been watching any of the Olympics but, but based on past performance, I knew exactly what this article was talking about. Well done!
aj says:
I absolutely cannot stand it when Leila is on the box, her fakery knows no bounds. Why did they choose Leila? She is completely brain dead when it comes to anything to do with sports.
Her constant derrrrrr waiting for the prompter to tell her what is happening is extremely annoying!
Winston Smirth says:
Channel Nine Commentator to Recent Gold/Silver/Bronze Medal Winner: Has your achievement sunk in yet?
Recent Medal Winner's Predictable Answer: Not yet. I think that once I have had time to reflect on my achievement it will have sunk in.What does all of that mean? The response to that stupid question I desperately want to hear is: Do you mean am I cognitive of my victory? Yes, I believe that when I looked at the scoreboard and saw my name next to a time that was lower than my competitors I was confident that I had won. The next clue was the congratulations I was getting from my competitors. The clincher came when a member of the royal family was draping a medal around my neck, and I was fairly certain that it was really me and not some strange dream.
Menious says:
The first two days of swimming, I counted about 38 occurrences of the phrase "blow the cobwebs out" - and they started to take it in turns; Gian, Hacky and Rabs. Also, I feel over the last 24hrs someone has told Rabs to stop calling female swimmers "girls" and he's been struggling to adjust, alternating between "ladies" and "girls" between laps.
Bruce is THE man for the Olympics - the legend of his research, knowledge and execution is world-renowned. I mean, the man even owns a sports literature store (in SA). This article highlights what I've been feeling in my gut all along - our biggest loss in London is our broadcasting :(
Gregg says:
Looks like a lack of gold has brought out the best of whinging when you want to whinge about the commentators.
If you have an interest in sports it's good to just watch regardless of what commentators have to say.
dennis says:
I didnt realise that the Olympics only had swimming and rowing as main events.
How many times can we replay and re-live the drama of the same this, over and over and over…

Dennis says:
Channel 9 are doing okay with the commentary I think. The only annoyance for me is the number od ads. interrupting the commentary.
Caruana says:
Every morning I wake up to see whats going on and what happened overnight and unfortunately every morning i'm greeted with two awkward presenters who are killing the olympics. Not only do you see more of them than actual sport but they both have no idea what they're talking about and it's pure pain to watch. Now I prefer to skip the TV and just read a news recap online. Biggest fail ever.
Graeme says:
Bring back Big Dazz, the weightlifting has never been the same since he retired. He still owns the best commentary I've heard in that sport from years ago…"Oh what a great snatch!!"
Arnold Layne says:
I've barely seen any of the Nine coverage. The Fox coverage with eight different channels running is so good that I don't have to watch Nine. That's worth the money in and of itself. Whole matches or events of whatever you want to watch. No interruptions except during half time or between races or events. Best of all, no Rabs, Karl, McKinnon, Nicholas etc. Bloody marvellous.
H B Bear says:
With Karl Stefanovic there Australia will still pick up gold in the open douchebag.

"I absolutely cannot stand it when Leila is on the box, her fakery knows no bounds. Why did they choose Leila? She is completely brain dead when it comes to anything to do with sports."
Ask her husband.
Not long to go till they throw the keys to Channel 9 to either the receivers or US private equity firms. Let's hope it makes a difference.
NeinNeinNein says:
Channel 9 need some characters to make their broadcast more interesting, but it's a but late now. Unfortunately for many years Channel 9 has treated sports followers appallingly, particular F1 viewers which I have never forgiven them for. It used to be the glamour channel to work at as well as the most successful, but not any more. Can you truly believe that we regularly miss out on pieces of one day cricket matches because of Today Tonight? That is exactly what I am talking about.
Damien says:
Couldn't agree more about Leila. I noticed that a year ago when she, for some reason, starts talking all posh english. It really annoys me too.
But I am really disappointed in channel 9 and Giaan Rooney's interview with Magnussen after he won silver. It's his first medal and all she could ask was "how disappointed are you" i mean come on. Should be rejoicing that we won a medal.Also there is way too much presenting going on. I have a feeling that Channel 9 overcompensated, exptecting to have about 15 gold medallists by now so that they could all be interviewed. But yes there is too much talking, too much awkwardness and not enough of just showing sport.

There is nothing I enjoy more than sitting on my high horse while throwing stones people in glass houses, except for combining multiple cliches in single sentences.
Ant you've had a cracker, now take your bat and ball and go home.
Chris says:
Not going to publish any examples of their cliches?
May as well write an article about awful sports photography and not provide examples.
Anna C says:
Channel 9's Olympics coverage is the worst ever. I've hardly seen anything apart from the swimming and other water sports. Give it a rest. I want to see some land based sports such as the gymnastics etc.
And by the way what's with Carl Stefanovic and that bloody suit? I swear he has been wearing the same coloured suit for days. I know times are tough (even at Channel 9) but this is ridiculous.
digger jones says:
I didn't think the Olympics had started ???
I have been watching "the games of the 30th Olympiad".instead.
Gordon says:
The three most predictable Olympic occurrences:
1. Over refreshed young athlete gets into trouble
2. Bitching about the medal tally
3. Bitching about the coverageWe do have one new one to add:
Sports personage makes dick of self on Twitter.
sure to be a regular that one…until Twitter goes the way of tandem bike events.
Girls just wanna "have fun"????? says:
Another grossly overused line (by athletes) has been "I just went out there to have fun"....say what????? I can understand somehting along the lines of "i wanted to enjoy the experience and perform at my best"....but just went out there to have fun? I assume taxpayers money is pumped into sports programs to get results not to provide an international travel opportunity for athletes to 'have fun'?
Tango says:
I have solved the problem by watching the events online through the IOC's Official Olympic Channel (http://www.youtube.com/olympics/?gl=US&hl=id?feature=etp-yd-lsi). They have several events across several sports live at any one time and replays of most events across almost all sports. Some of the commentaries are from Australians, some from Brits, some from Yanks and their focus is on what's happening in the event. And, if you speak languages other than English, there's a range from which to select. Listening to the Chinese commentary in the weightlifting is a hoot. But, I don't speak a Chinese language, so I don't know if they use cliches. And, if I can't sleep, I just switch to the commentary in German.
Does anyone know when the archery competition is going to move to the event where they shoot apples on people's heads?
Also, how do you make air pistol and air rifle shooting interesting? I thought of moving ducks (not real ones because their injuries would make it too easy for the shotgun shooters).
The theme from Chariots of Fire being played over and over and over is a pretty good cliche.
Computer Says.. Anthony Cheer Up! says:
Oh My God Anthony. Cheer up mate! You sound so miserable lately. Surely life can't be that bad, even for an armchair lazing opinionated critic like yourself. Look for the silver lining in something for a change. Anything!!
michael says:
why with all the digital the tech do i have to watch the same thing on all the channels, thought this technology was meant to give us unprecedented viewing experience, you know, different, channel different event / sport.
still looking at the same shit we looked at in Black and white, just a few different angles.
Peebs says:
Full credit has to go to the commentary team. They're out there giving 110%, day in day out. Sure, sometimes they're at sixes and sevens but at the end of the day there's no "I" in team. Some of them need to pull their fingers out and have a good look at themselves but on the whole they've been digging deep and doing it for their teammates. They've blown the cobwebs out and I think they're about where they want to be at this stage of the game in terms of performance. I don't think I'm drawing a long bow to suggest that they'll finish with a wet sail, you can bet your house on that. Anyone who suggests otherwise is unAustralian.
@maskdcommenter says:
I am annoyed at the Australian only focussed telecast. Dont get me wrong, fair enough that families want to see their kids compete. But in this day and age of digital television, you cant tell me that channel 9 couldnt have had one channel dedicated to other sports. I havent watched a lot of the telecast, but i am sure they hasnt been many lesser events shown or non-aussie events like table tennis and badminton. It might be good to show these so people can see what we are up against, rather than just hearing about how bad Australia has gone. The rest are just simply better. I watched the other day and there was two minutes of basketball (boomers of course), 1 gymnast on the uneven bars (aussie), two more minutes of basketball and then two gymnasts on uneven bars (both aussie) then ads. What about the rest of the world? Australia are nowhere on the world gynmastics stage, let us see those who are!
Steven says:
I'm no channel 9 fan but this piece of, ok lets call it journalism, smacks seriously of sour grapes.
Ronnie says:
I watched the full game of women's hockey Australia against USA it was a great game and without stupid commentary. Thank God I have Austar. Can watch what I want.
Steve says:
The best bit was when Ray Warren got the swimmers names wrong. Every time he got one wrong I spat out a mouthful of pure motor oil. As it stands, right now there are pelicans dying near my feet and I think i just choked a huge tuna fish. Also, I'm a capsized shipping tanker. In case you needed help with the analogy.
Duane says:
Geez, I never, ever thought I would voluntarily watch Seven's 'Sunrise'. How wrong was I? One… more… week…
Simon M says:
What annoys me beyond doubt is that in every Olympics I have watched previously have shown the medal tally. I mean I know we're a bit shithouse at the moment but I'd like to see where everyone is at. Hopefully , despite some dickfart at Ch 9 censoring the Tally, we are above the Poms.
Oh and the fact that all Iever see on Ch 9 is Kayacking, swimming and rowing. There are other sports at the olympics!
Peter Allen says:
Something for which I will always be grateful is that the Olympic Games only occur every four years. At least I can look forward to loads of Samba dancers during the opening ceremony of the next games. And for those games, I suggest that they load the commentators up with several shots of cachaça before they go on air.
But, I can just see it now: whichever Australian network is broadcasting the Rio games will play "I Go to Rio" incessantly for the whole two weeks.
JD says:
Rebecca Wilson would have to be up there with the worst. She has no idea about swimming. God knows how she got a job commentating on the sport. One of her best was ' you have to swim fast to make the finals'.
Kev says:
Karl Stefanovic's comment that Australia's men's volleyball team were "unlucky" after being smashed by Bulgaria. Unlucky implies you were in with a chance at winning.
bugger channel nine says:
go to bed ! have your own olympics! then go to sleep !

Dolly says:
Did you notice however, the venue announcer at the pool has an Aussie accent. Who is that bloke? He was the venue announcer in Sydney, Athens, beijing, and now London.

Hi guys,
I finally found the green temperature sensor yesterday on my 2.5tdi cabriolet. On most posts on the forum and on google, everyone says its near the battery, but we located more in the centre of the engine bay (on the 2003 diesel).
Anyway, now i have found it, where should i buy it from? eurocarparts, ebay, audi?
anyone got the part number? are they different between petrol or diesel cars?
