As someone in the lubricant engineering field I'm always amused by any threads pertaining to oil. I see some good answers and some that are totally out there and ridiculous.

Paul, with respect, that is not correct.
When you see a W on a viscosity rating it means that the oil viscosity has been tested at a colder temperature. The numbers without the W are all tested at 210?? F or 100?? C which is considered an approximation of engine operating temperature. In other words, a SAE 30 motor oil is the same viscosity as a 10w-30 or 5W-30 at 210?? (100?? C). The difference is when the viscosity is tested at a much colder temperature. For example, a 5W-30 motor oil performs like a SAE 5 motor oil would perform at the cold temperature specified, but still has the SAE 30 viscosity at 210?? F (100?? C) which is engine operating temperature. This allows the engine to get quick oil flow when it is started cold verses dry running until lubricant either warms up sufficiently or is finally forced through the engine oil system. The advantages of a low W viscosity number is obvious. The quicker the oil flows cold, the less dry running. Less dry running means much less engine wear. The only time the 5W-30 oil is "thin" is at cold start up conditions where you need it to be "thin."
Even running 0W oil will not melt down our engines. The key number is the last one, at operating temperature. In practical terms, the engine starts easier (helps battery life!), and as the engine warms, the polymer chains in the oil thicken it for proper operating temperature rating.

...and if you read the oil/temp usage charts, they will tell you that a xx/40 wt oil is recommended up to about 75 degs or so (don't have the charts in front of me at the moment, so that temp could be off by a few, but not many).
don't know about you, but i do a TON of riding at temps vastly exceeding 75 degs.
a 20W/50 oil is temp rated from 20 degs F up to 105 F--- temp ranges that are rarely exceeded by most of us.
I will support PG's statement that a xx/40 wt oil is, under most circumstances, too "thin" an oil for our bikes.
Ride Safe, Ride Lots
Nicely Put. Keep watching the trends in OEM recommended lubricants. You will notice more and more 0wXX viscosity out there. Al most every automotive manufacturer now has 1 or more vehicles taking 0w20, 0w30 and 0w40. A lot of them have to do it to meet EPA and Cafe standards. Most engine engineers will say "thinner" is better on start up to quickly lubricate the top end.
Grand rapids, MI
At what temperature is your oil thin ? Hot or Cold? What oil are you using in 90-100 weather ?
I routinely ride in 90-100 degree weather in south Louisiana all summer, and I run Amsoil 20W50 full synthetic of the proper API service grade, SG, SL/CF/CG-4 and have a very happy engine in my RT with no oil usage at all.
If it gets cold down here, I switch to 10W40 without problem.
I think you may be confusing shear failure in overheated oil with the viscosity index. If you are riding in very hot temperatures use only full synthetic oil like we use in turbine engines. The problem with non-syn oil at high temperatures is that it tends to burn and coke up and causes damage due to abrasion from the carbon particles. Synthetics generally will not coke and ruin bearing surfaces.
Here is the SAE outside temp recommendation. Anything in the green will work fine for the particular temperature:

They will tell you what is recommended for your specific bike. I would not extend what you read for your bike as a general rule applicable to all. Example:
- 2010GS: no chart, table says 10W40 for >= -10 ??C, Castrol GPS 10W-40 >= -20 ??C, no upper limit given
- 2008GS: 10W-40 -10 ... 30 ??C is listed in a table
- 2004GS: 10W-40 -20 ... 30 ??C noted in chart form.
Same oil, almost the same bike, 3 different ranges.
Good point. One other thing to be aware of: API changes ratings from time to time and some become obsolete. There was a thread on one of the boards recently where someone was stressing over his inability to locate a specific API rated oil. Someone else pointed out that his manual was specifying an obsolete rating, and informed the OP of the new rating to look for.

My wife's 2008 Jeep Commander with the 5.7L Hemi engine requires 5W-20 year around, in fact the manual threatens possible voiding of warranty if another viscosity is ever used. The manual says that because the engine has cylinder shut down under light throttle conditions for fuel economy the shut-down mechanisms are not reliable with thicker viscosities.
It's surprising to me that this Jeep is rated to tow over 7,000 lbs in summertime heat and uses 5W-20.

BMW sells oil??? People are too OCD about this stuff, it is an internal combustion engine, they have been around for years, cheap oils today FAR exceed the best you could buy 20 or 30 years ago. And last I knew the bike couldn't read the bottle.
My oilhead has never seen BMW oil, past the first change. Dino for the first 15K, then full synthetic since, Mobile 1, Castrol Syntec, Shell Rotella, Valvoline.
Being an 1100 it uses some oil, I top off with what ever I have on hand, regardless of brand.
After 55,000 miles, 50 track days, a majority of my miles on twisty back roads at 4-8K RPM in 2 and 3rd gears, which is probably equivalent to 100K plus of 70 mph on the slab, it runs just fine.
Just ride the thing!
Your response makes sense if you have a 20 to 30 year old bike. In that case yes the oil is way better than when the bike was made.
On a new bike, the manufacturer, when it designs the engine, takes in to account the quality of oil available, and specs out the oil based on the then-current API classification. They probably assume you won't go out looking for a case of 30 year old oil, but just in case will tell you the classification of oil they expect you to use.
As long as the oil you are using meets or exceeds the API classification, it is SAFE to use, you will NOT void your warranty if you are using the proper API classification and appropriate, recommended viscosity.
In the case of my bike, a wedge 4, things are slightly more complicated due to the intregal engine/transmission, but again I know if I use what is stated in the manual "Mineral oil API classification SF to SH" it is OK to use. If they do come out with a higher class than that it is also OK to use. Anything beyond that is strictly an opinion (mineral vs synthetic, brand, etc).

07 K1200GT Bought new, now traded in
not necessarily. we already have oil classification ratings beyond SH. the newest is SN (the 2nd letter is patterned alphabetically, so that means that 6
betters" have come (and 5 have gone) since that SH rating was "da best". that does not mean that they are better for our motors, just that they meet newer specs. again, the nature of the additive package is at the heart of the question here. typically, the newer oils specs have lower anti-friction/anti-wear agents in their additive package. and that is not an especially good thing for us.
interesting that the newest wedge motors call for SF-SH, as those are the same API classes called for in airheads and oilheads.
i look for oils that are SG rated, 20W50. typically, that has meant Castrol m/c specific oils.
Ride Safe, Ride Lots
And once the SG oil is no longer produced, than what do you do?
87 K75S, bought new, now sold
07 K1200GT Bought new, now traded in
BULLETIN ! : SG is now an obsolete rating. Current ones are SJ/SL/SM/SN
Go to the American Petroleum Institute site and get the ratings guide, use the current standard, and stop stressing over oil ratings. For those still worrying about thin oil and what temperatures are used with what viscosity rating, the bottom of the last page in the PDF file noted below shows the temperature ranges recommendations.

Verlander meets Darvish in ace vs. ace showdown
Tigers right-hander to face off against Majors' strikeout leader in opener
As far as pitching matchups are concerned, they don't come much better than the one tabbed for Thursday's series opener between the Rangers and Tigers at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington.
Former American League Cy Young and MVP Award winner, as well as back-to-back Major League strikeout king, Justin Verlander will toe the rubber for Detroit opposite current K's leader Yu Darvish. Verlander is off to a 4-3 start with a 1.93 ERA, while Darvish sits at 6-1 with a 2.73 ERA in his second big league season.
"Those two guys are pretty impressive. You talk about Verlander: Cy Young, MVP. He's really good, look at history," Tigers outfielder Torii Hunter said. "And then you look at Yu Darvish. Last year, he was really good, and this year, he's a lot smarter. And I definitely think that Yu Darvish has some of the nastiest stuff in the game. So it's going to boil down to who executes the right way, fundamentally sound baseball, and it's going to be not too many runs scored in that game."
There may not be many runs expected, but there figures to be plenty of strikeouts.
No pitcher struck out more batters in 2011-12 than Verlander. The hard-throwing righty tallied 250 strikeouts in '11 and followed with 239 last season.
Yet through eight starts in 2013, Darvish has used his wide array of pitches to ring up a Major League-best 80 hitters over 52 2/3 innings. Verlander, meanwhile, has tallied just 57 whiffs in his 51 1/3 innings.
"They are different type of pitchers," Rangers skipper Ron Washington said. "Verlander is definitely categorized as a power type of pitcher. Yes, he has a changeup, and yes, he has a curveball, but when he has to get you, he rears back and lets it go. Yu Darvish is a combination of power and finesse. He can manipulate the ball as well as anybody, but he can also power it up. He can get you out with a lot of movement, and his movement is in four different directions."
In his first big league season after spending seven years pitching in Japan, Darvish faced -- and defeated -- the Tigers on three occasions last season, though he never squared off against Verlander. Now, as he prepares to face the perennial Cy Young Award contender for the first time, Darvish insists he isn't looking forward to Thursday's start more than any other.
"Not particularly, because I won't be hitting against him," Darvish said. "If that were the case, I'd be looking forward to it. I'm just going to be pitching, and I'm focused on pitching my game."
Verlander echoed a similar sentiment, pointing out as he often does that he does not pitch against the opposing starter. Instead, Verlander is focused on slowing down a Rangers team that has won six of its past seven games, while averaging 6.7 runs per game during those victories.
"I'm just looking for us to beat Verlander," Washington said. "If they both have their stuff, it will come down to the team that gets an opportunity and takes advantage of it or the team that makes the first mistake. If neither have their stuff, there will be a lot of runs put on the board."
Tigers: Valverde easing into pitching shape
Though Jose Valverde has pitched well for the most part since returning to the mound with the Tigers, the club is still working toward getting Valverde into shape.
Valverde has converted three of his four save opportunities and sports a 1.29 ERA through seven appearances. Still, manager Jim Leyland has also been trying to get Valverde some work in non-save situations, considering the 35-year-old closer missed out entirely on Spring Training while waiting for a team to give him a chance.
"We think we need to get him in better pitching shape -- not physical shape," Leyland said after using Valverde to close out a 6-2 victory on Tuesday. "He looks good physically. He's not too heavy or out of shape. … Valverde's in good shape, but not probably pitching shape. We felt like it's important to get him out there and pitch him a little bit, continue to build the arm strength up."
Rangers: Moreland on a roll at the plate
First baseman Mitch Moreland went hitless Wednesday for just the second time in the past 12 games. Moreland remains on a torrid pace since May 3, hitting .370 (17-for-46) with six home runs during that 12-game stretch.
"I'm just going up there trying to have good at-bats and get a good pitch to hit," Moreland said. "I've been able to do that so far, hopefully I can keep doing it. If you stay with your approach and work at getting a good pitch and get the barrel to it, the home runs will come. It's not something you try to do. Not many guys go up to the plate trying to hit home runs and actually do it."
Worth noting
• Hunter is 6-for-18 in his career against Darvish. The six hits are tied for the second most by any player against Darvish, one behind the Angels' Alberto Callaspo (7-for-16).
• The Rangers are 9-2 in one-run games this season, while the Tigers are just 3-6 in one-run affairs.

Gallery: Gigantic Coal Gasometers Transformed into Thriving Communities...
Vienna knew the value of these amazing structures couldn't be left to dematerialize before their eyes so in 1992 the city called for new ideas that would revitalize these monuments.
The gasometers are four gigantic gas tanks enclosed by a brick façade, each approximately 230 feet tall, 197 feet in diameter, and with a storage capacity of over 3 million cubic feet. Once used for the storage of coal gas, the gasometers were retired in 1984 as the city shifted over to natural gas. By 1981 these structure were classified as heritage buildings due to their unique architecture, and thus escaped demolition. Despite random use since the closing of the plant (see the setting in the James Bond movie The Living Daylights. Also see: rave venue hosting Gazometer-Raves – the term "Gazometer" was coined on its scene) they remained on the whole abandoned empty containers.

Cubis 2by FreshGames
Play the challenging sequel to Cubis, the addicting match-3 game, for free on Games.com. Push the colored blocks into adjacent groups of three or more to clear the board. Play in one of two modes: Arcade or Morph Arcade, which includes ghost cubes to dodge.
Check the "CUBES TO GO" counter to gauge how many cubes to match before advancing to the next level. Use special blocks to your advantage as you plan your strategy to eliminate as many cubes as possible. If you clear one chain and cause a chain reaction, you score a Cubis.
Special Blocks:
Cubis is as much a strategy game as a match-3 puzzler. Make sure to take advantage of these special blocks to advance much more quickly:
- Star cubes help you score bonus points, but be sure to clear them quickly. They also dole out penalties if you do not remove them from the board.
- Stone blocks cannot be moved and will not fall, so push those into areas with less clearing potential.
- Cracked cubes will crumble away when hit but can also make chains. Place these cubes at the end of a chain you've already started.
- Wedges will raise a cube up but cannot push other cubes, so scout possible matches by raising up one of your cube stacks.
- Osmosis cubes change the color of cubes they hit and absorb into stacks that they match. Can't find a matching color stack? Aim osmosis cubes at pairs of the same color above grounded color cubes.
- Laser cubes will destroy anything, so aim them at areas with less clearing potential to maximize points.

Cards' '13 top pick Gonzales set to debut vs. Rox
Fellow first-timer Flande set to be Colorado's 12th starting pitcher
A pair of southpaws are slated to make their Major League debuts at Coors Field on Wednesday afternoon in the series finale between the Cardinals and Rockies.
With right-hander Michael Wacha and left-hander Jaime Garcia both having been placed on the disabled list due to shoulder injuries, St. Louis' first-round selection in 2013 First-Year Player Draft, 22-year-old Marco Gonzales, is scheduled to take the ball.
Colorado is set to counter with 28-year-old Yohan Flande, who pitched in the Philadelphia and Atlanta systems before being acquired by the Rockies. He spent nine seasons in the Minors. His opportunity comes on the heels of an injury to another rookie hurler, right-hander Christian Bergman, who was hit in the left hand by a line drive in his last start on Friday against the Brewers in Milwaukee.
Gonzales, the Cardinals' No. 4 prospect, advanced from rookie ball to Double-A Springfield in just over a year, posting a 1.89 ERA and striking out 78 batters in 76 1/3 innings between Class A Advanced Palm Beach and Double-A before being called up.
"We just think there have been a lot of things going in a good direction [for Gonzales]," Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said on Tuesday. "I think he's ready. ... He deserves an opportunity."
"I couldn't have written it any better than this," Gonzalez said of his imminent debut. "It came a lot faster than I thought it was going to come, but I believe that I'm ready and the organization believes in me."
Gonzales' debut will also be a homecoming, since he is a native of nearby Fort Collins, where he starred for Rocky Mountain High.
"I think most of it is mental," Gonzales said of pitching at hitter-friendly Coors Field in the thin Colorado air. "I think a lot of guys shy away from coming to Colorado ... but I love it."
To make room on the 25-man roster for Gonzales, shortstop Pete Kozma was designated for assignment.
Flande struggled while at Triple-A Colorado Springs, posting a 2-9 record with a 4.42 ERA in 14 appearances (13 starts).
"I got to see him this spring," Rockies manager Walt Weiss said on Tuesday. "I got a small glimpse of him, really. He's a left-handed pitcher who has shown the ability to get ground balls, and we'll see what he has."
Colorado hopes he can fill in admirably in a pinch and help the Rockies take the series from the defending National League champions.
Cardinals: Molina is key to Gonzales' debut
Catcher Yadier Molina got a scheduled day off on Tuesday, though he pinch-hit and caught in the eighth, but having him back in the starting lineup on Wednesday will be a huge lift, given that Gonzales will be making his debut.
"It's great to have a smart catcher like Yadi, who knows how to maximize a young kid's stuff and what he's comfortable doing," said Matheny. "Yadi has done it a number of times with our young pitchers. He [tells] them, 'You pitch your game, I'll catch on. I'll help you and I won't let you do anything stupid.'
"That's a huge security blanket for a young pitcher -- to know I can go be myself ... but they're watching in case I get off track a little bit."
Rockies: Bergman joins long list with injured hands
Bergman, who before undergoing an MRI exam thought he would be able to make his scheduled start on Wednesday, was diagnosed with a broken trapezium bone at the heel of his left hand.
The right-hander joins fellow pitchers Brett Anderson (broken left index finger) and Jordan Lyles (broken left hand), as well as third baseman Nolan Arenado (broken left middle finger) and outfielder Carlos Gonzalez (surgery to remove a tumor in left index finger) with injuries involving hands.
"It's been strange," Weiss said on Tuesday. "Kind of an epidemic around here."
Worth Noting
• Gonzales was originally selected by the Rockies in the 29th round of the 2010 First-Year Player Draft, but opted to go to college.
• The Rockies' 10-5 win over the Cardinals on Tuesday was their second in eight games against National League Central opponents this season.
• The 10 runs St. Louis gave up Tuesday were the most Cardinals pitchers have allowed since yielding a season-high 17 against the Cubs on May 12 at Busch Stadium.

Medlen, LeBlanc look to take momentum into Miami
The Marlins and Braves are headed in different directions early into the 2013 season. But they'll send two pitchers with an even early slate to the hill on Tuesday night in the second game of this week's series.
After the Braves took the series opener on Monday, 2-0, they improved to 6-1. The Marlins dropped to 1-6, falling in their home opener.
But both starting pitchers in Tuesday's game -- Atlanta's Kris Medlen and Miami's Wade LeBlanc -- enter the tilt with identical 0-1 records and 3.60 ERAs after their season debuts. Each gave up two earned runs in five innings -- LeBlanc against the Nationals, and Medlen against the Phillies.
"The last two innings were really good, really efficient, really aggressive," LeBlanc said of his previous outing. "My stuff sharpened up, and I felt I got into a rhythm. I'll try to roll that up into the bullpen between starts, and try to carry it over into tomorrow."
The Miami lefty has never beaten the Braves, clocking in with an 0-3 record and 6.62 ERA in six appearances (three starts). He faced Atlanta twice during Grapefruit League play this spring, both on the Braves' turf in Lake Buena Vista, Fla.
"I think when you're in the same division, you end up facing them several times anyway," LeBlanc said. "Whether it is the Braves, the Nationals or Mets, it doesn't matter. It just ends up that's the way the Spring Training rotation fell. My stuff and my approach is going to be a little different. Their approach is going to be a little bit different because we're not working on things."
The young Marlins will surely have their hands full against Medlen, who broke onto the scene last year when he went 10-1 with a 1.57 ERA. He walked four and struck out three in his first start of the year. He struck out two hitters in a perfect, nine-pitch fifth inning, with hopes to take that momentum into Tuesday's start.
"The last two or three innings, I felt more comfortable," Medlen said. "I made the adjustments I needed to make. I will just build off that and go from there."
Marlins: Lots of new faces
• With plenty of young faces in the rebuilding Marlins' lineup, there isn't much history for Mike Redmond to exploit when it comes to matchups.
"We get all this information and we look at all these matchups," Redmond said. "If you look, most of our hitters have two or three at-bats maybe against the pitcher on the other team. It's just they are very young in the Major Leagues. There is going to be some growing pains. Just have to get some at-bats under their belts."
• The Marlins are opening up a nine-game, 10-day homestand after a six-game road trip to begin the year. Each of Miami's three opponents will be from the National League East.
Braves: Uptons away
• Justin and B.J. Upton have already shown why they could be so important to the Braves after coming over this offseason. In the series opener in Miami on Monday, Justin scored both of the game's runs while hitting his sixth homer of the year. B.J. delivered his lone homer of the young season in Atlanta's dramatic walk-off win over Chicago on Saturday.
Justin Upton hit five homers, scored seven runs and drove in seven runs (including three game-winning RBIs) to earn a National League Player of the Week nomination last week, while establishing a franchise record with the five homers in the team's first five games.
• With this series, Atlanta opens a stretch of 18 games from April 8-28, with 16 of them coming on the road. The Braves' only home games in the upcoming three-week stretch will be two contests against the Royals on April 16-17.
• The Braves are 6-1 to start the season for the first time since 2007, when they opened at 7-1.
Worth noting
• Marlins infielder Placido Polanco is a .310 (96-for-310) career hitter against Atlanta, while Donovan Solano has 13 hits in 15 career games against the Braves.
• The Braves won 14 of the 18 meetings between the two teams last year, including seven of nine at Marlins Park. Miami hasn't had a winning season against Atlanta since 2009, when the Marlins went 10-8.

Oooh I have a LOT of pics of the cars being driven and tested out here a few yaers back.
As an Australian, Mad Max is considered a cultural icon and the jump start of Mel Gibson's career. Unfortunaltely, Mad Mel will not be reprising his role but I am still looking forward to this movie.
Principal photography began 9 July on the dystopian action adventure "Mad Max: Fury Road," a Kennedy Miller Mitchell production written and directed by "Mad Max" creator and Academy Award(R) winner George Miller ("Happy Feet"). The film will be presented by Warner Bros. Pictures in association with Village Roadshow Pictures. It will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company, and in select territories by Village Roadshow Pictures.
"Mad Max: Fury Road"--the fourth in the franchise's history--stars Tom Hardy ("The Dark Knight Rises") in the title role of Max Rockatansky, alongside Oscar(R) winner Charlize Theron ("Monster", "Prometheus") as Imperator Furiosa.
According to Miller, "Mad Max is caught up with a group of people fleeing across the Wasteland in a War Rig driven by the Imperator Furiosa. This movie is an account of the Road War which follows. It is based on the Word Burgers of the History Men and eyewitness accounts of those who survived."
"Mad Max: Fury Road" also stars Nicholas Hoult ("X-Men: First Class") as Nux; Hugh Keays-Byrne ("Mad Max," "Sleeping Beauty") as Immortan Joe; and Nathan Jones ("Conan the Barbarian") as Rictus Erectus. Collectively known as The Wives, Zoe Kravitz ("X-Men: First Class") plays Toast, Riley Keough ("Magic Mike") is Capable, and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley ("Transformers: Dark of the Moon") is Splendid. They are joined by supermodel Abbey Lee Kershaw as The Dag and Courtney Eaton as Fragile, both of whom are making their big screen debuts. Also featured in the movie are Josh Helman as Slit, Jennifer Hagan as Miss Giddy, and singer/songwriter/performer iOTA as Coma-Doof Warrior.
The cast is rounded out by well-known Australian actors John Howard, Richard Carter, supermodel Megan Gale, Angus Sampson, Joy Smithers, Gillian Jones, Melissa Jaffer and Melita Jurisic.
Miller is directing the film from a screenplay he wrote with Brendan McCarthy and Nico Lathouris. Miller also produces the film, along with longtime producing partner, Oscar(R) nominee Doug Mitchell ("Babe," "Happy Feet"), and P.J. Voeten. Iain Smith, Graham Burke and Bruce Berman serve as executive producers.
The behind-the-scenes creative team includes Academy Award(R)-winning director of photography John Seale ("The English Patient"); action unit director and stunt coordinator Guy Norris ("Australia"); editor Margaret Sixel ("Happy Feet"); production designer Colin Gibson ("Babe"); Oscar(R)-winning costume designer Jenny Beavan ("A Room with a View"); and makeup designer Lesley Vanderwalt ("Knowing").
Shooting on "Mad Max: Fury Road" is taking place in Africa with the support of the Australian government. Originally slated to be shot in Broken Hill, New South Wales, Australia, the production was forced to relocate due to severe flooding, rendering the Australian landscape unsuitable for the film. The rain turned the area into an oasis instead of the post-apocalyptic terrain that is the setting for Max's world.

I would have loved to have seen Mel Gibson as Max. This still has potential, though.
This movie is going to be awesome.
WANTED: Comic From SDCC Vykron!
Mini Comic want list:
Terror Claws Strike
Skeletor's Journey
And any and all PoP mini's.
So they're going straight for the "Road Warrior" vibe... that's disappointing. I much prefer the first film, with a few elements of society remaining.
I survived the 2013 sub ordeal!
"We achieved the impossible, and that makes us MIGHTY" (Mal Reynolds, captain of Serenity)
No Mel Gibson and craploads of CGI? This isn't Mad Max, it's Mad Bane. And supposedly this is set after the third film when they were using methane for fuel. Somehow I'm curious as to how they are fighting for the last supplies of gasoline, especially when you factor in the fact that gas has a short lifespan as usable fuel.
1st Trailer:
"Freedom is the right of all sentient beings, but freedom isn't free."
Mel Gibson, between his repeated anti-semitic rants and threatening to kill his own wife, has roughly a 0% chance of getting into a movie like this again. His acting career is basically dead at this point.
I think it looks great. I don't know what all is CGI, but I do know that they did a ton of it practical. And I'm glad Mel Gibson isn't a part of it, frankly. I'm crazy excited about it.

Really looking forward to this. It would have been nice to atleast see Gibson in a cameo or something.
Dare I say it, but this looks beautiful. The cinematography is lush. George Miller is a visual genius, so it looking as good as it does is no surprise.
"Freedom is the right of all sentient beings, but freedom isn't free."
To be honest, he stepped away from the main actor chair a long time ago, way back in 2002. I think you're wrong about Hollywood being sick of him, personally, I think he finally decided to walk away from the front of the camera. My god, for twenty years he was basically starring in one or two films a year from 1982, I'd get burned out too. Seems like all the real trouble for him started after he divorced his wife.
"Freedom is the right of all sentient beings, but freedom isn't free."
Yeah, sorry, but Mel Gibson hasn't had a hit since Signs. That was in 2002. I think he'll still get little roles here and there so it's not like he hasn't or won't act again, but I'd say his days as a leading man are pretty much done. But, that's been said before about different actors and they've come back. I just think he'd be more toxic than anything to this movie, so I'm glad he's far, far away. Better to have a clean break and try to build something from here on out. There's always the old movies to enjoy.

This was a loooong wait. Finally the Road Warrior is back!!!! This trailer was so awesome. Miller is an artist when it comes to high adrenaline chase scenes. This took me so many years back. I still have the pack with the three videotapes, that together form Max's face.
The original MOTU among the other influences was also influenced by the Mad Max movies. Eternia was at the beginning a post apocalyptic world with the surviving barbarians, vehicles and weapons from the old world combined with a Sword and Sorcery mythology. Who knows maybe one day we see this Eternia on the big screen. How awesome will be to see a chase scene like the Road Warrior's with the MOTU vehicles.

Gotta admit that trailer was awesome and the movie looks really good.
I've seen good trailers though before from movies that ended up sucking.
The trailer for Fury Road is almost hypnotizing. I just watched Road Warrior again for the first time in a long time last night and
it's crazy how much this trailer has that vibe (like both movies could be only a couple years apart when made even though it's been 33 years )

Hi Michael,
I'm having problems installing the pts/disk suite. In particular pts/aio-stress fails to install.
When I call to install dependencies it exits with no errros so I'm assuing it's not a dependency problem.

I'm using kubuntu 12.04 kernel 3.2.0-32 and here's the install log:

I'm having this exact same problem. Were you able to find a solution?
I'm having this same problem, but I'm having problems installing the pts/cairo-demos suite on Fedora.
Install log:
/tmp/pts-compiler-mask-cairo-demos1.0.1//gcc: redirection error: cannot duplicate fd: Too many open files
/tmp/pts-compiler-mask-cairo-demos1.0.1//gcc: line 5: /tmp/pts-compiler-mask-cairo-demos1.0.1/CC-options-gcc: Too many open files

/bin/bash: error while loading shared libraries: libtinfo.so.5: cannot open shared object file: Error 24
Ok I solved it.
The problem is that for some reason, gcc is not including the libraries that aio-stress requires to compile. You can see this by compiling the aio-stress.c file manually with the additional flags: "-laio" and "-lpthread"
Doing this will result in a working aio-stress binary, so you need to pass these flags to the main system gcc when it used by phoronix.
This is how I did it:
First, make sure that libaio-dev is installed
Then re-name gcc "gcc1"Code:sudo apt-get install libaio-dev
Then create a file named "gcc" and paste in this python code:Code:sudo mv /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc1
Code:sudo vim /usr/bin/gccFinally, set the correct permissions:Code:#!/usr/bin/env python import sys import subprocess def main(): args = ['gcc1'] args.extend(sys.argv[1:]) args.extend(["-laio", "-lpthread"]) print args subprocess.call(args) if __name__ == '__main__': main()
Then you should be able to install the test successfully:Code:sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/gcc
NOTE: Obviously this will change the system-wide gcc to include the two libraries "laio" and "pthread". Once the test has been successfully installed, you can put gcc back to normal with:Code:phoronix-test-suite install-test pts/aio-stress
Hope this is helpful! I'm so pleased to have this finally working!Code:sudo mv /usr/bin/gcc1 /usr/bin/gcc

Great job and thanks for sharing! I will try it as well.
If you already the aio library installed there is a cleaner way to get the compiler the right arguments. You just need to change the file: ~/.phoronix-test-suite/test-profiles/pts/aio-stress-1.1.0/install.sh to be the following (note the "-laio -lpthread" has been moved to end of the cc command):
That got the test to work find on my Ubuntu 12.04 system.Code:#!/bin/sh cc -Wall -o aio-stress-bin aio-stress.c -laio -lpthread echo $? > ~/install-exit-status # add support for allowing aio-test-file to be on removable media devices echo "#!/bin/sh ./aio-stress-bin \$@ aio-test-file > \$LOG_FILE 2>&1 echo \$? > ~/test-exit-status rm -f aio-test-file" > aio-stress chmod +x aio-stress

OscarLos Angeles, CAHairLight BrownNormal HairDry HairI'm PleasedI was looking for something that would leave my hair shiny and hold my pomp in place and I gotta say this stuff really did the job! :) Last night I thought to myself that if I go to sleep with a pomp if it would flatten out or hold in place? I am surprised that I woke up to only a few hairs sticking out the side of my head and I am a very messy sleeper.posted Mar 20, 2014Link to this post
Nicholas V.NYCHairLight BrownCurly HairI Love It Because It Does For Me What Its Supposed To DoI continually buy this pomade only because I put a little bit in and my curly hair after a shower and it keeps the curls together. I read some reviews - It doesn't make your hair stand up!!! yes theyare idiots for naming it defiant (bad choice of name for this one) "slick "or something would have been better but really theres millions of other pomades out there for that. if I wanted taht I would go elsewhere. But after trying a S*&t load of ones it was the best one for me why because if i dont use pomade my hair frizzes like a bad birds nest and I get called napoleon dynamite. this one keeps the curls together and looks like I don't have anything in my hair which I need to look professional for my job it works for me. So now Im going back to prive shopping for a box of it because its cheaper then blowing 7 bucks at Duane read Peace!!posted Dec 26, 2012Link to this post
Marvin S.MassachusettsHairDark BrownNormal HairDisapointed! Man's Point Of ViewI tried the defiant pomade and it didn't hold up. I spike my hair in the front and after 45mins. or so it goes flat. I was using axe pomade but thought the price was crazy so I bought this and Chaotic paste, I'm going to switch back to axe. I'd rather pay a little more and know it's going to hold up.posted May 24, 2012Link to this post
EvanHairLight BrownNormal HairNopeI started with got2b playful and even that kept my hair up longer, was not as greasy, and looked no where near as clumpy. However, I thought maybe I could find something even better to hold it up all day not just a few hours and found the complete opposite. With my messy hair i typically dont need that much but for some reason no matter how much got2b defient i put in it always falls down within 5 min therefore leading me to use more and more hairspray. This does not do its job and a complete waste of money.posted Sep 7, 2011Link to this post
SpringIndiana, USAHairDark BrownNormal HairColor Treated Hair:/ MehThis product definitely didn't deliver for my hair type. I have medium-thick, short hair with highlighting. This pomade didn't lift or define my hair much. It would keep my hair just so for a two minutes (literally) and then fall. Not even hair spray did the trick.posted May 11, 2011Link to this post
ThereseOhioLove It!!I love this stuff! I have naturally curly hair that's been highlighted. It instantly reverses a bad hair day! Rub it on my hands and run it through my curls - It makes my curls glimmer, I've never seen so much shine. It gets rid of the frizzies, it smells like fresh oranges and a perk, it's 2 oz, so it can go in my carry on when I'm traveling. It lasts forever too, because you only need to use a dab. Awesome.posted Apr 13, 2011Link to this post
DanielHairBlackOily HairThick or Coarse HairWeird ProductThis really didn't work that well for me. It doesn't really keep any hold and most of my hair lays flat again after a while even after blow-drying it. Also, I have very dark hair and after using this I noticed that it turned my hair a lighter shade of brown. It goes back to the original color after washing it out, but still, weird.posted Jan 22, 2011Link to this post
Bille JeanNYWorks For Me!I use the pomade in the tin container, and I think this product is better for preventing flyaways or smoothing/slicking hair, not so much spiking it and sculpting it. It isnt really a holding product. Dont be heavy handed with it, I just get a little on my fingertip and apply it to my hair. Great shine and no flyaways. It works well for my hair.posted Aug 11, 2009Link to this post
DanHairRelaxed HairGood For Certain Hairi am a guy with reallly thick coarse dry wavy hair and this instantly smooths my hair and gives it texture and not too much shine. i would assume if you had already healthy oily hair it would be smart to be careful with this but it works perfect in my case. great to give a try!posted Jun 16, 2009Link to this post
GodNYNot Sure What It DoesI guess its called "defiant" because it wont EVER do what you want it to, which is keep your hair up. After i apply the crap, my hair is flat within about 5 min. without fail. In all fairness, it can hold up the front of my hair for a little bit (couple hours) but for some reason thats it.

CANTON Crews from CSX rail company are expected to start replacing the Route 11 rail crossing on Thursday and finish late next week.
Project Engineer Thomas A. Maroun Jr. said completion of the rail crossing will allow state transportation officials to lift the detour thats been directing traffic off Main Street for the past several weeks.
He hopes to lift the detour by Aug. 12, which will allow traffic to flow through downtown without interruption.
The CSX rail crossing is near the intersection of Jay Street, which will be turned into a cul-de-sac as part of the $9.55 million state Department of Transportation project.
They have done the signal work. Now they have to install new concrete panels and rail lines and reline the tracks, Mr. Maroun said. Thats supposed to take four or five days.
The two-year project is on schedule to wrap up by Nov. 30, Mr. Maroun said.
This seasons work has focused on replacing the underground water and sewer mains from Park Place to Stiles Avenue. Last year, crews replaced the underground piping in the downtown business section, stretching from the village park to Riverside Drive.
Work has gone smoother this year because traffic was detoured away from the work site, Mr. Maroun said.
With the road closed, we were able to get a lot more done. We are ahead of schedule, he said.
Now that the pipe work is complete, crews from Luck Bros. Inc., Plattsburgh, will start storm drainage work from the railroad crossing to Harrison Street.
A crew from Collins Concrete, Cobbleskill, is scheduled to start installing curbing on Monday in the stretch from Park Place heading eastward toward Stiles Avenue. New sidewalks in that area will also be installed.
Basically whats left is a drainage work and a little reconstruction, Mr. Maroun said.
As the project winds down, crews will reconstruct the section of Main street from Riverside Drive to Gouverneur Street, including a portion of Gouverneur Street. The highway in that area will be milled at night this fall.
In early October, the final layer of paving will be installed in the downtown business section. The pavement stripings and extra signs also will be installed.
Village Superintendent Brien E. Hallahan credited DOT officials and Luck Bros. for running a smooth operation so far this season.
They did an excellent job of traffic control throughout the year. Im very pleased with the progress theyre making, he said.

River Maps: Michigan
Major stream systems of my beloved home of Michigan, rendered as an urban transit network. I originally intended to do one map per state (or group of states, for the smaller ones), starting with Michigan, but I decided later to use watersheds, rather than political boundaries, as the basis for a map series.
This map features the following rivers, creeks, (etc.): St. Joseph, Elkhart, Pigeon, Fawn & Crooked, Prairie, Nottawa, Paw Paw, Kalamazoo, Rabbit, Battle Creek, Raisin & Goose, Huron, Grand, Thornapple, Flat, Maple, Looking Glass, Red Cedar, Shiawassee & Saginaw, Flint, Cass, Tittabawassee, Pine (Michigan), Chippewa, Muskegon, Manistee, Little Manistee, Au Sable & Kolke, Tahquamenon, Escanaba & Black, Menominee & Brule, Pike, Sturgeon, Pine (Wisconsin), Paint, Michigamme.

10% of the profits I earn from the sale of prints will be donated to organizations that protect and restore some of the watersheds seen in this river map series.

Very cool Michigan map. I like the idea of doing maps for all the Great Lakes. I would like to see a more detailed map of Southeast Michigan, especially Detroit. You can't forget about the Rouge River or Conner Creek! Perhaps in the future?

Quincy arson fire subjects firefighters to needless risk
At 1:53 a.m. Saturday, Quincy Fire was dispatched to a reported structure fire at 1195 Lee Road in East Quincy. Upon arrival firefighters were met with a fully involved single-family wood-framed house with fire extending to two exposed detached garages.
Before the first fire engine could even arrive the flames were high enough to burn the overhead TV cables, telephone wires and threaten the high-voltage wire which passed over the property.
Eighteen volunteers responded with three fire engines and a support vehicle. It took approximately 15 minutes to extinguish the flames and another two hours to overhaul the smoldering structure.
Quincy Fire Department battles an arson fire in an abandoned house |
As soon as the flames were knocked down, Quincy Fire's cause and origin investigator, Capt. Tim Pitlock, began his investigation into the cause of this catastrophic fire. After interviewing neighbors and PG&E it was determined that the house had been vacant for nearly two years. All the utilities had been shut off and no other ignition sources could be identified. After determining the location of the origin of the fire, the building was turned over to the Plumas County Sheriff's Office to protect any evidence that still might be uncovered. At 8 a.m. Sunday, Pitlock met with CalFire investigator J. Bergland and the arduous process of sifting through the rubble began.
After clearing all debris from one of the back rooms, obvious signs of flammable liquid trails were found on the floor, confirming the fire department's suspicions that the fire was deliberately set. The case has now been turned over to the Plumas County Sheriff's Office for further investigation.
If not for the quick response of the Quincy Fire Department this fire was already in the process of spreading to neighboring, occupied homes.
This fire endangered the lives of nearly 25 responding firefighters, support personnel and law enforcement officers. Every year America loses an average of 100 firefighters in the line of duty. The Quincy Volunteer Fire Department has already paid the ultimate price by losing fire Capt. Bill Hopman in January to a heart attack after he responded to an accidental chimney fire. "To endanger the lives of our volunteers fighting a fire in an abandoned building that was deliberately set ablaze is unacceptable," said Quincy Fire Chief Robbie Cassou.
"Fire-fighting will always be a life-threatening occupation whether you are paid or a volunteer. We as firefighters accept that risk when we pin on the badge. But the crime of arson in my opinion is the same as attempted murder. Starting an uncontrolled fire that our firefighters will have to risk their lives responding to is the same as pointing a gun at their head and pulling the trigger," said Cassou. "It is for this reason that my wife and I are offering a $1,000 reward for any information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for starting the fire at 1195 Lee Road."
If you have information regarding this fire contact the Plumas County Sheriff's Office at 283-6363, the Quincy Fire Department at 283-0870 or the CalFire Arson Tip Line, (800) 468-4408.
Last summer the Quincy Fire Department responded to several human-caused wildland fires. One was determined to be the work of children playing with matches, three others led to the arrest of a suspect found hiding near the scene of the fires, while two others remain unsolved. "Though there is no evidence to suggest that the arson fires of last year are in any way related to the Lee Road fire, the fact remains that we clearly have an arson problem in Quincy," said Cassou.

Cute, but a little short!
The skirt is very cute, and I love both colors, but it's a little short, so definitely not for work.
February 13, 2014
Love This Skirt!
I am 5'3 and weigh 140-145 lbs, size 28 waist. I usually wear a medium in skirts, but based on other reviews I ordered a small and this fits perfectly. There's even have a little extra wiggle room in the waist. It looks extremely cute -- the length hits mid-thigh. I always receive lots of compliments while wearing it! Highly recommend this skirt!
January 17, 2014
Someone returned this skirt in the XS to my store and I tried it on just for fun to see if it would fit. The XS fit me great! (5'9 140 lbs) now I will warn the tall girls this definitely is not a work appropriate length on us but it's definitely long enough to pair with tights for a night out!
December 20, 2013
Ladylike and Edgy!
Height: 4' 11"
Weight: 110 lbs
Size Ordered: XS
In most other brands, I'm a pants size 4. Limited seems to run a lot smaller and I wear a 2 in their dresses! I gambled and got a XS and I was pleased. Fit perfect.
This skirt is just beautiful. The lace is so pretty and I love pairing it with an edgy chunky necklace and boots!
I've worn it 4 time and there hasn't been a day where I didn't get a compliment from multiple people. I feel so pretty. For work I kept the skirt a bit lower on my hips (work code says no longer than 3 inches above the knee, but I'm wearing tights as well) and for a date I moved it up and belted it like a high-waisted skirt. I am short though and wouldn't be surprised if this was too short on some taller people.
I'm going to purchase the black one now as the maroon one is so lovely!
December 17, 2013
5'4", around 140lbs - ordered the medium and I think it's just a little too big, but I'm probably not small enough for a small. Other than that, the skirt is very cute. I bought the burgundy skirt and the color is perfect. I do wish the skirt was a little bit thicker, mostly because the first time I wore it, the weather got windy while I was at work!!! So my review comes with a warning... it will fly up in the wind!
November 13, 2013
Gorgeous for work and play
First, I am 5'6" 120 lbs and the xs fits perfectly. The pleating with the A-line allows just enough play with the twirl so that the skirt is able to remain professional when dressed with a blazer. I ordered both this deep red and the black and love both colors. The quality of the fabric is very high and the lace is nice and smooth. The lace overlay is slightly longer than the solid matching underlay, which I personally like because with the black it accentuates that it is a lace skirt.

Well, we found that DELL notebooks are some of the better ones when it comes to reliability and service at the moment. Especially the Precision range. The XPS 13 is a very well built machine (and is one of the 2 reliable ultrabooks that we have found, the other is the Samsung series 9).
I have the Precision M4700, and for a 15.6" "workstation" it is pretty impressive how well this thing is designed & built.
I got a "cheap" Inspiron 15se for a friend, whom needed an affordable laptop that can game, etc... even though it is built using mostly plastic, it feels solid, and doesn't have any operating issues. Actually, I'm very impressed with it.
Dells Precision, New Alienwares, new XPS'es and Inspiron ranges (yes, the more expensive ones) are actually pretty decent.

Sumptuous colored gems take the spotlight in The Chatelaine® Collection. Rich and vibrant stones mix in sparkling earrings and necklaces. The idea is a classic one, but David Yurman gives it his unique touch by pairing colors unconventionally, sometimes even creating earrings of mismatched colors.

Cardinal fans were witness to a hard fought battle in Class B region volleyball play when St. Mary beat Oldham-Ramona/Rutland in four sets Tuesday in Dell Rapids.After pummeling the Raiders 25-12 in the opening frame, the Lady Cardinals saw a resilient ORR team play with more urgency in the final three frames. St. Mary held on for the 25-19 win in the second set, but couldn't close the Raiders out in the third. The Lady Cards dropped the third game 26-24.The fourth game, a 25-23 nail biter, prevented a fifth match for St. Mary, and earned the Lady Cards a trip to take on Chester.Ally Mullaney led the team with seven kills and seven blocks, while Kelly Michel chipped in four ace serves and 12 kills. Kaitlyn Vortherms had 13 digs and three ace serves for St. Mary. Other contributors were Abby Siemonsma – she had 18 set assists, Riley Wolles and Amber Hansen. Hansen had nine digs, and Wolles had eight blocks.But the mojo didn't seem to travel well and the Chester Flyers ended the St. Mary Cardinals' volleyball season early when they dealt the girls from Dell Rapids a decisive three-set loss – 25-14, 25-9, 25-19.Mullaney had two ace serves, two blocks and nine kills.
