This product is great
They are comfortable and works very well has great stability

Great Support
I was having pain in my wrists when I lifted before i brought these gloves. The give good support and help to stabilize your wrist when you lift heavy.

Nike lifting gloves
I like them because they have extra support on the wrists and keep them nice and tight. I wore them twice and the seam ripped on my index finger while I was lifting weights. Besides that there great. But I'm not too happy about the fact that they ripped

Fits like a glove
Fits my hands great. Gives padding without being bulky. Strap offers some wrist support. Great for protecting hands while weight lifting.

Good for light weight lifting
These are good quality gloves and use for light weight lifting. Not enough padding if you plan to use for heavy lifting like bench press.

they are perfect for working out, I am able to grip the equipment that I use and I just love love love love, even though there for men I love them
I love the way they fit on my hands like I said they're perfect for working out even though they're for men

Great Workout gloves
these gloves are great for working out, they can be a little difficult to take off, so I recommend possibly getting a larger size then you normally would. but they do fit perfect if you order your normal size. They offer excellent support. Depending on your exercise the support the gloves offer can feel awkward but others wise great gloves.

They are not a good quality product and surprise me because they are Nike. Very uncomfortable to wear and looks like they not going to last. I'm going to return them asap
Sorry guys
November 5, 2014
great glove
These are great lifting gloves. They fit my hands very well and provide excellent grip. The only reason they are not getting 5 stars is I am not too fond of the shiny parts on the back hand part of the gloves.

perhaps hot oil?
I think evoo. I don't want competing hot flavors. It should get plenty hot on its own.
Sorry, I meant temperature-wise. Pour on the hot oil, and seal up for a vacuum.
Somewhere I read sun dried in salt, then into the sunflower seed oil.Airforce One picking up some Tutto Calabria something.
Are you sure that's not tutta bella pizza?
Heh...That's my local newspaper....
Can these oils be made with some parts peanut oil in addition to the olive oil? Sometimes I think I want to go with a more neutral flavored oil.

At Bottlenose, 100% Item Management is standard on all e-commerce websites. No other website provider in the wine & spirit industry offers 100% Item Management. In 2004, Bottlenose developed a systematic approach to posting and classifying all retailer online items, whether they be wines, spirits, beers, gourmet foods, tobacco, gifts, or accessories. The process begins with the retailer sending an inventory file. Upon receipt, the Bottlenose Item Specialist staff takes over, applying formalized standards and procedures to each and every item.
Posting items: All items from each retailer inventory list are posted for sale by Bottlenose. Included are an image, full description, and tasting notes found at producer / importer / manufacturer websites. Wine items also receive critic reviews and ratings from Wine Spectator, Wine Advocate, and Wine Enthusiast. In the event that an item from an inventory file is unclear, Bottlenose will issue an item alert message through the Admin Control Panel requesting clarification.
Note: Retailers have the ability to insert their own image, description, and tasting notes for any item. Perhaps the producer / importer website is lacking information, or the item is Private Label, or the retailer simply prefers his own content over what is available from the producer / importer. Any retailer provided content remains the property of the retailer and will not be reproduced by Bottlenose for use on any other website.
Classifying items: Bottlenose classifies each retailer's items by category, region, and producer. For wine items, classification by category, country, region, appellation, varietal, and vintage is provided. This guarantees thorough, accurate search results when using a Bottlenose website. It also supplies the valuable content necessary to achieve superior results on major search engines such as Google.
Updating items: Only items presented in the most recently received inventory file are displayed online, available for sale. Previous items and the navigation to find them disappear until back in stock. There is no restriction on how often or how many inventory files may be sent daily. Files with changes to existing for sale items are reflected almost immediately as the Bottlenose computer reads and updates. The Bottlenose Item Specialist staff processes new items, making them available for sale by close of business the next day, if not sooner. More complete information such as adding critic reviews may take 3 to 5 days. Bottlenose is very responsive to any expedited needs.
Inventory file: In no particular order, the below grid lists key fields of information Bottlenose prefers to find in a customer's inventory file. Not all fields are required. Bottlenose is able to break out vintage and pack size from a description field. Acceptable file formats, uploaded through the Admin Control Panel, include spreadsheets saved as a CSV file or Tab Delimited. If a customer has Atlantic System's Spirits 2000 or ICS's Vision POS system with web polling, then inventory files are automatically formatted and sent to Bottlenose.
Virtual Inventory: With Bottlenose, you can sell online items not currently in your brick & mortar store and/or sell more quantity online than you have in your brick & mortar store. The Threshold field controls if an item is for sale. Standard is to set it to zero (0). However, you can insert your own negative or positive numbers for each item. The computer compares the Threshold number to your On Hand Quantity. If the On Hand Quantity is greater than the Threshold number for that item, then the item is available for sale.
- Dedicated, trained, and supervised staff of Item Specialists located East Coast and West Coast working on file sizes with less than 500 items to more than 8,000 items
- Manage items from the Admin Control Panel - upload files, review items online, add images / descriptions, find Item Alerts
- Various sizes displayed online such as 375 ml, 750 ml, 1.5L of the same item are counted as one (1) item
- Website does not display on hand quantity. Does advise how much can be ordered if requested quantity exceeds on hand
- Some of the category and publication icons added to items include:
- The below standard rules apply to when critic review scores appear:
When price $0- $12, show all scores = and > 85
When price $12-$25, show all scores = and > 87 Note: Customer can request revised price points and/or rating numbers rules
When price $25-$40, show all scores = and > 89
When price $40-$65, show all scores = and > 90
When price > $65, show all scores = and > 91
- Retailer inventory files can be submitted any time (morning / afternoon / evening) and as often as you wish
- Changes (pricing, quantity, deletions) to existing items are reflected virtually immediately upon receipt of new inventory file
- Consumers only see, search for, and navigate to items that have an On Hand Quantity which is greater than the Threshold number. Items that sell out disappear until a new inventory file is received with a positive On Hand Quantity.
- Your site is visible to consumers and search engines, such as Google and Yahoo
- Your site ranks higher on results pages because it contains key word rich content
- You save time and money - the average person does 4 items per hour. 500 items equates to 125 man hours of time needed to properly display information. Over the course of a year, figure an extra 250 items will be added to replace sold out items
- Frees up valuable time to focus on increasing sales and finding new customers
- The content (image / description / notes / reviews) added on each item instills consumer confidence to continue shopping
- Performing Item Management on up to 500 items included in site development and base monthly service fee of $275 for Pre-Designed HomePage websites and $325 for Custom HomePage websites
- For websites with more than 500 items, a one time fee of $75 and an ongoing fee of $75 is added to the base monthly for each additional 250 item increment above the base 500 items Note: there are no other fees such as for sales volume, bandwidth consumption, or number of transactions. (see charts)
- Can add up to 5% new items each month to base online inventory amount, no extra charge. Can make unlimited price changes, inventory changes, and deletions, no extra charge. If the number of new items submitted exceeds the 5% and the basis has not changed, then a one-time charge of $2.00 per item will occur for each new item that exceeds the 5%.

Hopefully thoughtful Chinese don't want to accelerate climate overheating by burning tar sands crude, which emits 17% more CO2 than conventional crude. Maybe they're thinking about what the devastation that global warming will cause to China's most productive cropland or the destruction to major metropolitan areas from super storms like those feared by the folks at MIT who have just put up a 4 mile long banner showing the expected flooding level in Cambridge and Boston after a Hurricane Sandy type storm (http://www.fossilfreemit.org/blueline/). Leave the tar sands junk in the ground. Push wind and solar that will not destroy our grandchildrens's future.

Health officer says released data 'may not be true'
By AMANDA HARRISON
Staff writer
The county's health officer brought some startling cancer statistics Tuesday to the Calvert County commissioners, acting as the local health board, that he says "may not be true data."
Laurence Polsky, the Calvert County Health Officer, presented Calvert's cancer mortality rate from 2005 to 2009 compared to other counties, the state as a whole and the U.S. as detailed in the Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene's 2012 Cancer Report of the Cigarette Restitution Fund Program.
"The lung cancer rates for [Calvert] women and the breast cancer mortality rates struck me as unusual," Polsky told the board, because higher breast cancer mortality rates are expected in areas where a larger percentage of the population is impoverished or areas where there is a high minority population, "and neither of those apply to Calvert."
He said after he saw the data last Thursday, he called the head of cancer surveillance for the state asking if she had an explanation for the elevated numbers. He said that she had not seen the data yet, but that she agreed with Polsky that the numbers were "troubling" with lung and breast cancer.
In an email Wednesday from Polsky, he clarified that he contacted Carmela Groves, the program manager for the Maryland Center for Cancer Prevention and Control, which has a team of epidemiologists who compile and analyze cancer data from across the state.
"I don't want to imply Ms. Groves hasn't seen the data contained in the report," he wrote in the email. "There are thousands of statistics in the report. When I asked her about the unusual findings with regard to the incidence of lung cancer in women in Calvert compared to men and the higher than expected mortality rate for those diagnosed with breast cancer, she had not noticed those particular findings."
Polsky wrote in the email that Groves said she would work with the epidemiologists to verify the accuracy of the data, noting that "because data collection is a complex process, it may be several weeks before we receive an answer from the cancer surveillance team in Baltimore."
"There might have been collection errors. There might have been reporting errors. There might have been calculation errors. This may not be true data," he said during the presentation. "And if it is true, we need to know why."
The report, which spans 2005 through 2009, reviews total cancers and seven specific cancer sites targeted by the Cancer Prevention, Education, Screening and Treatment Program: lung and bronchus, colon and rectum, female breast, prostate, oral, melanoma of the skin and cervical cancers.
According to the report, the primary purpose of the Cancer Report is to assist local health departments and local community health coalitions in planning and implementing comprehensive cancer prevention, education, screening and treatment programs.
The Maryland mortality data for single years 2008 and 2009 and five-year aggregate data for 2005 to 2009 were obtained from the Maryland Assessment Tool for Community Health, where data are obtained from the Maryland Vital Statistics Administration. CDC WONDER remained the source for mortality rates for single years 2005 through 2007, which were covered in the 2010 Cancer Report.
All rates are age-adjusted, which is "a statistical technique that allows for the comparison of rates among populations having different age distributions, by weighting the age-specific rates in each population to one standard population" — the 2000 U.S. standard population, according to the report. In addition, the report defines rate as "an estimate of the burden of a given disease on a defined population at risk over a specified period of time," and the mortality rate is "the number of deaths for a given period [2005-2009] divided by the population at risk per 100,000 population."
According to the report's data, Calvert's total cancer mortality rate is 200.
He said the areas on the state's map with the higher cancer death rates, across all types of cancers, are areas that consist of tobacco cultivations and higher obesity rates.
"Calvert has a higher per capita cancer death rate than the state as whole," he pointed out. "The thing that was more striking to me than that, because we know that Southern Maryland is in an area that historically because of smoking rates and obesity rates we would expect more cancers, but women's death rates are more significantly elevated than the total.
"Traditionally, men are much more likely to develop lung cancer than women," he said, noting the state's 3-1 ratio. "State data actually showed that there are more women in Calvert over this five-year period that died of lung cancer than men."
According to the data in the report, the total lung cancer mortality rate for Calvert is 57.7. Men's mortality rate from lung cancer in the county is 59.6 and women's is 56.4.
In neighboring Charles County, the total lung cancer mortality rate is 58.4, with men's at 76.4 and women's at 47.2. In St. Mary's County, the total lung cancer mortality rate is 60.7, with men's at 77.4 and women's at 47.
When comparing these rates against Maryland's lung cancer mortality rate of 51.1 and the U.S.'s lung cancer mortality rate of 50.6, all three Southern Maryland counties are 10 to 25 percent above the Maryland and U.S. rates.
"For women who got breast cancer in Calvert, they had a higher chance of dying from the cancer than most other places in the state," Polsky explained.
He said Calvert, which has a higher female breast cancer incidence rate than the state on average, is second to Garrett County, which has the highest per capita fatality rate from beast cancer. In Calvert County, the total mortality rate for female breast cancer is 30.
Calvert's female breast cancer mortality rate is more than 25 percent higher than the U.S.'s female breast cancer mortality rate of 23 and Maryland's of 24.7.
In Charles and St. Mary's counties, the total mortality rate for female breast cancer is 23.5 and 25.2, respectively. Both counties are between 10 percent below and 10 percent above the U.S. and Maryland female breast cancer mortality rates.
Commissioner Susan Shaw (R) said she noticed the dates are 2005 to 2009, "which is well before the [Dr. Sheldon] Goldberg [Center for Breast Care at Calvert Memorial Hospital], so before that there were no specialty services here."
The Center for Breast Care opened in 2010, and was headed by the late Dr. Sheldon Goldberg.
Polsky said one of the problems is that these types of statistics "always lag by three to four years."
He explained that the reason he brought the numbers up, despite his "reservations" about the data, was because "this is publicly available. ... I didn't want you all to find out about it because somebody posted it on their Facebook."
Polsky also told the board that the Calvert County Health Department's total budget for the year is $10,253,123. About half of the budget comes from state grants, about a third comes from the county and nearly $2 million comes from collections directly through the health department, he said.
"Like most agencies, we have had some budget issues with the recession," Polsky told the Board of Health, adding that the department lost about a third of its staff over the last five years.
Polsky said that in an effort to combat the decreased budget while maintaining services, the department has reassessed staff time in clinics, aggregated field inspections to increase efficiency and has been working with the state and county to optimize use of technology.
In another effort to increase efficiency, Polsky said the community rabies and influenza clinics will be combined in 2013. He said this measure will increase the likelihood of people protecting against both diseases and will also decrease the department's costs.

Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rimSchwalbe Ultremo blowing off rimI've got a new Schwalbe Ultremo DD to fit to my Mavic Kysrium Elites. So far tonight I've fitted the thing by hand twice. First time I pumped it up to 140 (max is 145) ... came up stairs... BOOM. I go down and it's popped off the rim.
Second time I try 130... this time I didn't even get upstairs before KABOOM! Same result. I don't normally have trouble with tyres. Anyone got any ideas? Once you can climb hills on a bike it's all downhill.
Hopefully I'll know what that's like..... one day.
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rimCan you video it next time and put it on youtube?
Why do you need to run 140 psi?
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rim
+1 More to the point, why do you need 140psi when it's sitting inside ?? Going by Sheldon's tyre pressure advice 130psi would be suited to a 100kg rider on 20mm tyres. Is that you? More information including a 15% tyre drop chart at Bike Quarterly. Riding bikes in traffic - what seems dangerous is usually safe; what seems safe is often more dangerous.
Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rimSchwalbe all seem to be an easy fit. I would suggest that you are likely to have problems with this tyre from now on. The bead is probably slightly stretched and hence the second time at a lower pressure.
The trouble with jogging is that the ice falls out of your glass
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rimOnce I had an Ultremo R.1 blow away from the rim when I had Ksyrium Elites. My LBS guy said I hadn't seated the bead onto the rim effectively. He instructed me to fit the tyre and tube as per normal, inflate the tube to 15-20 psi where you can still use your thumb to manipulate the bead a little down under the rim lip, sometimes I could hear the bead snapping into place when I worked the tyre wall a bit. After working both sides of the tyre you gradually inflate the tube to desired pressure. I never had a problem with fitment on those rims or any others since that lesson. However, I was using 110psi in the rear and 100psi in the front with the ksyriums, unless you are on the boards I can't see why you want 140psi but that said the tyres should stay seated up to their rated pressure.
The only other logical thing I can come up with (assuming the wheel rim is not dinged) is if there is a minor manufacturing fault in the bead of the offending tyre making the tyre not able to clinch under the rim lip for a partial section of the rim......... maybe hard to pick up visually on a folding tyre like these....... 3rd class cycling is always better than 1st class walking
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rim
Well with clothes, shoes, and stuff packed into the jersey pockets let's say I'm 80kg. With spares and a couple of water bottles lets say the bike is 10kg. According to the write up you linked that's 55kg on the back. That's pretty much 130 psi. This tyre was a bit of an experiment. I've been running continental Force on the back. They roll **really** well but are worn out in less than 2000k. So, I thought I'd go for this schwalbe which is significantly heavier but should be more durable. I was hoping to up the pressure a bit to keep the resistance down. I'm now very concerned about the tyre. I'll put another tube in it and try 120 psi this afternoon. Yes, I put 15 psi ish in it and rocked it on the bead to check the seating. Thing is I need to have confidence in the tyre. Once you can climb hills on a bike it's all downhill.
Hopefully I'll know what that's like..... one day.
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rimMy theory is that the tube should sit high in the tyre and push the beading down onto the rim. If the tube and tyre stick to each other (which they often do), the tube can push the beading off the rim . I coat the inside surface of the tyre with talcum powder so the tube can slide around easily inside the tyre. I also powder spare tubes I carry with me.
When you inflate the tyre, first inflate to about 20 psi and spin the wheel. If you watch the rim and tyre walls while the wheel spins you will see if it is properly seated or not.
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rimI fitted that same tyre to the better half's bike with no problem at all. Run the rear at 110psi and 105psi on front. It's been a great tyre, rolls well and prevented a number of punctures. Operator error, I'd kindly suggest.
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rimNever seen recommendations going up to 130psi. 115psi is almost the limit for heavies on road tyres. And a lot of rims/tyres don't even support anything over 120psi.
Bianchi, Ridley, Montague, GT, Garmin and All things Apple
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rim
Sounds like a fault in the tyre but that being said you've pumped it up way too hard. 120psi is really the absolute most you should run in a clincher. For most clincher rims 120psi is the max recommended by the rim manufacturers. Our Website is: http://www.pro-liteoz.com Find us on Facebook by searching for "Pro-Lite Australia"
Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rim
it says 84-145 stamped on the tyre! Mavic say 138 is their recommended max. Once you can climb hills on a bike it's all downhill.
Hopefully I'll know what that's like..... one day.
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rim
Yep and I run my rear at 120psi - but I have more than a couple of kilos over the rest of you The trouble with jogging is that the ice falls out of your glass
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rimLike others already, they are easy to put on, seems you took due care whilst fitting it on. I've run mine at every bit of that pressure on Fulcrum 1's with no probs, you may just have a 'Friday' tire
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rimSeems you are not alone ....
Schwalbe Ultremo ZX blow-up today Mind you, the pressure you mention is way high imho. Even with 23c's, I have never gone over 110psi (and I was up to 98kg at the time). And now, I run 95/100 with the Conti Grand Prix in 24C and now being 88kg
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rim
See my post above. I'm lighter than you, but according to the info in the bicycle quarterly that SB refers to I need to be running about 130 in the rear to have an optimum pressure. We re-fitted it last night and ran it at 120 today. It hasn't gone KABOOM yet. We also used a continental race tube rather than a race light. Once you can climb hills on a bike it's all downhill.
Hopefully I'll know what that's like..... one day.
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rimif you continue to have issues then you could try a wider tyre*, thus achieving the 15% tyre drop at a lower pressure.
*subject to the frame being able to accommodate the wider tyre.
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rim
The bike came with 700x25 but they didn't roll anywhere near as well as the Continental Force and Attack that I replaced them with. Oh well... I'll just run them at 120. It's just a bit annoying when you buy a tyre that is placarded to 145 psi and put them on a rim where the manufacturer states 140psi and the tyre blows off it comfortably under both specified maximums. Oh well. Given it has been bought as essentially a training tyre I guess I can handle a little more rolling resistance and enjoy a better ride. If it's as long wearing and as puncture and chip resistant as they claim then it will still be a good outcome. Once you can climb hills on a bike it's all downhill.
Hopefully I'll know what that's like..... one day.
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rimWell last night I got an email from Ze Germans. Christian to be precise.
Anyway, he says it shouldn't blast off up to 290 psi!!!!! I'm going to send him some more info on it tonight but I suspect it was just something about the way I was fitting it. The only way to confirm this now is to blow it up to 140 (max for the rim) and wait a while. I might do that one time after a few beers to calm my nerves. Once you can climb hills on a bike it's all downhill.
Hopefully I'll know what that's like..... one day.
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rimgive yourself some margin, on a warm day/after a long decent with heavy braking will see the pressure rise noticeably.
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rimAnother option is to run the 23s you want on wider rims and therefore can run lower pressures. I've got Ribino Pros 23s that measure 24mm front, 25mm rear due to 17mm front, 19mm rear (inner) rims.
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rimI took my race bike in for a service recently and when I picked it up they'd replaced the front tyre (Durano Plus) because it had started to delaminate on the sidewall. Apparently, Schwable wanted the tyre back to see what the problem was.
Perhaps a call/email to Schwable might be in order?
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rim
Maybe so, that'd be the ABSOLUTE MAX, NO SAFETY MARGIN. Pump it up to 140 and go ride in the sun for an hour or do a decent and you could quite possibly be looking at 160 psi and you're way into the danger zone for rim failure, tyre failure etc.. Leave a road tyre in your car parked in the sun up here and the pressure will go so high from heat expansion that the tube will have failed by the end of the day. Manufacturers put these crazy max psi ratings on the sides of tyres I think in the hope that a punter will walk around a shop and pick one with the biggest max psi limit. Even a really big heavy guy, 120psi is pleanty. I only run 100psi on our tandem and we are about 145kg (28mm tyres), if I was running 23mm tyres I'd put the pressure up to 110-120psi. There is no benefit to running them at more than required and quite a few downsides to it. Anyway I'm not saying that there isn't something wrong with your tyre - but you are pumping them up far too hard.

Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rimI like the schwalbe tyres and I'm sorry to read you had a problem with one of that breed, and yes I do think it is the individual tyre rather than excessive pressure.
For puttering around on the road I run schwalbe Lugano for a bit more puncture protection at 120 on the rear and 100 on the front. For the crits I use the schwalbe Stelvio's 140 on the rear and 120 on the front without any problems all on cheap Shimano rims, and I weigh in at 96 kg.
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rimI had the same problem once, turns out I hadnt taken the little valve nut of the valve, so every time i inflated the tyre it popped off the rim......
Re: Schwalbe Ultremo blowing off rimI run Conti GP4000s 23's on my commuter bike, and anything over 100psi is too harsh. I'm 80kg and carry panniers, sometimes with laptop and mains adapter within.

Chan started the step sequence near the end of the SP and he fell after a Twizzle and then picked up the step sequence after he fell. I thought he was ending with the required step sequence.
Chan started the step sequence near the end of the SP and he fell after a Twizzle and then picked up the step sequence after he fell. I thought he was ending with the required step sequence.
I think what people are outraged about is the fact than Patrick skated terribly yet received a high score nonetheless.
In any sport the scoring system must reward good performance and penalize bad. Looking at the protocols to see exactly how Patrick's awful performance managed to add up to so many points is just a further indictment of the scoring system -- and, indeed, of the sport itself.
^^ Well said!
I think the issue of the marks has been well covered - my question is why cant Patrick Chan stay upright - when was the last time he did a totally clean perofrmace? He is an outstanding skater and athlete but even his 2 world silver medals included flaws in his performance especially last years worlds. His great SS , spins and FW sequences keep him " up there " for sure , but why cant he land the jumps in the first place - is it a focus issue , a tecnical issue a nerves issue or what? I really love his skating but the constant falls or over rotations or step outs give me ulcers ? Can on eof you tecnical experts enlighten me ?
After watching the Chan's program i have no quarms about his score, his skating skill are comparable a level above the rest, Oda program his empty, and adam is slow and still sophmorish, he really performed and i enjoyed the program a lot, especially the ftwk, the jumps where not there at all, chan makes gains ,speed , and flow so easily as if he dancing and not skating almost make albert looks like he is lumbering across the ice
Exactly. And it's a perfect example of why many sportswriters don't consider figure skating a sport. No one really questions that Chan is a fine skater, but falling 3 times in a Short Program only 2 min 40 sec long and getting high PC scores stretches credulity. Can't see how anyone could consider it a good performance.
Who is Albert? Or did you mean Alban?
Blame me if you want, kill me if you will, but I think I made a wrong call. I watched it again, and I realized that the straight line step sequence I thought he had completed did not quite reach the other end of the ring. So the two step sequences I thought he had were actually just one complex sequence. In other words, I think he did fall on the required element. Kill me. Kill me.

Hardly impolite. Accusatory, yes, and necessarily so given the comments being made. I certainly would not apologize if the scenario you speak of comes to pass; if the judges didn't mark Chan down on his footwork sequence they were incorrect. I do not put up blatantly incorrect rulings and believe them to be the ultimate truth just because they are "official".
I see no need to cater to a bunch of mostly heterosexist sportswriters who will not bother with this sport whatsoever even when the result is determined using a clock. In fact, I am pleased they don't trivialize our sport to the same level as one that openly cheers fist fights on ice which of course makes juicy stories for these writers. If that is deemed a "real sport", be my guest. Don't believe me? Then please name a woman who can be accepted as a commentator on any of such "real / money making professional sport".
Thankfully, the status and prestige of this sport is not dependent on the opinion of such narrow minded people. In fact, IOC is about to approve a team based event for 2014 Olympics whereas some of these "real sport" is not even in the Olympics.

Yes! Patrick was scored as if he had a few minor bobbles that you could hardly notice. But his falls were HUGE and very disruptive, and the fall on the footwork even more so, since Patrick is supposedly the king of footwork.
It's insulting and demeaning to skaters who had clean or near-clean programs and yet finished below Patrick.
I do not believe he would have received such huge PCS scores if the competition had been outside Canada.
Wow, very interesting & thought-provoking thread, I read all 18 pages, lol.
Once again I missed the Mens Sps. :( Why oh why couldn't the men have skated first this AM, not the women, and I'm going to miss everybody tomorrow as well, so won't be able to watch them all until either very late Sunday night or early Monday morning. *argh!* >8^<
And I just logged-onto IN and noticed they don't have it on on-demand yet, so I haven't been able to watch the replays, therefore I'm unable to post my own thoughts. However, if they post it by midnight I'll be able to do so, otherwise I will have to wait until late Sunday night or early Monday morning.
That said, may I say I'm pleased how it all turned out thus far! *clapping* Kevin Reynolds carries on the torch of the Quad Kings (al Plushenko, Lambiel, Joubert). However, remember Kevin, Zhenya has officially landed over 100+ quads in his almost 13 yr. career in seniors, that's a lot of live up to, but I have a feeling you'll hang tough. So happppy about this kid!!!! And Noburani Oda, what can I say, I had an epiphany about you the other morning, the only thing missing is the quad, which I thought you would go for it every time out from here on in, don't prove me wrong, Noburani, GO FOR IT IN THE LP!!!!! Last but not least, Adam Rippon, he does the USA proud, being the leader of a new generation of American Men this quadrennial. But remember, Adam, with the quad you would honestly be unstoppable, it's well worth mastering imho.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ODA, REYNOLDS, RIPPON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *clapping insanely, lol*

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot in a vein deep in the body. Veins are blood vessels with valves that help prevent backward blood flow. Blood is pushed through the veins in legs and arms when muscles contract.
Deposits of red blood cells and clotting elements in the blood can build up in a vein. This build up leads to a blood clot. Clots usually occur in the legs, but can occur in other locations. As the clot grows, it blocks blood flow in the vein.
Several factors contribute to clot formation, including:
Risk factors for DVT include:
Symptoms occur when:
Some patients may not have any symptoms until the clot moves to the lungs. This condition is called pulmonary embolism.
Symptoms of DVT may include:
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
Treatment aims to:
Treatments include:
This may include:
You may be prescribed blood thinning medication to prevent additional clots from forming. These may be given by injection or by mouth. This treatment may be continued long-term.
In some cases, a filter may be placed in the inferior vena cava. The vena cava is a major vein. Blood from the lower body returns to the heart through this vein. The filter may trap a clot that breaks loose before it travels to the lungs.
General prevention measures include:
If you are admitted to the hospital, talk to your doctor about how to prevent blood clots, such as:

Hot weather and hot action Monday on the Beach. Anthony Williams brought along Christian, Conner, Rick, Frankie, and Johnny. We started out not far from the MRGO and got on a good Trout bite with Campo's shrimp under a cork. When the tide slowed down our bite stopped so we made a few moves and got on a few bites. The guys had lots of action and caught fish at each stop till we ran out of bait. By that time everyone was ready to call it a day. The crew had a blast, and is looking forward to their next trip. Total take home for the day was 105 Trout, 1 Red, 3 Drum, and 3 Sheepshead.
WE HAVE 4 BOATS WAITING TO TAKE YOU ON YOUR NEXT FISHING ADVENTURE. OUR LODGE SLEEPS 19 ANGLERS, just steps from the boats. Check out the photos of the quality fish we have been on. Give us a call at 504 887 4960 or 504 881 9966 (cell). You'll be glad that you did!!

Bill Clinton: Well obviously, if the expected results was that we would eliminate serious drug use in America and eliminate the narcotrafficking networks it hasnt worked.
In the end the war on drugs will end and then the "Mafia" will lost there "power" .
The world need solutions not another pointless "War" against the freedom of the humans.
On the other hand these "war on drug" people are like hardcore-moslem in a holy war against freedom of choice, freedom of religion, freedom in general. And the funniest is: the hardcore-moslems also fight against "drugs" because in there believing system only "God" has the right to make you happy and not a "satanic" drug.
prohibitionist=hardcore-moslem there is no difference.
But yes #(Christian)prohibitionist/hardcore-moslem# have fun in fighting natural-human-behavior and the human right of: "freedom" for a pointless war until the end of humanity.
I'm sure in the end these stone-age belief systems #(Christian)prohibitionist/hardcore-moslem# will lost the war in the long run. Because in a modern world its to easy to educate yourself in the "Internet".
In the near future its impossible to stay that "Stupid"

GNOME First Steps
Revision as of 02:16, October 28, 2013 by Duncan.Britton (Talk)
What is GNOME?
"GNOME 3 is an easy and elegant way to use your computer. It is designed to put you in control and bring freedom to everybody. GNOME 3 is developed by the GNOME community, a diverse, international group of contributors that is supported by an independent, non-profit foundation." GNOME
Preparing to emerge
To get your system ready to emerge gnome, it is recommended that you first set the gnome profile. To accomplish this, do the following:
# eselect profile list Currently available flavor profiles: [6] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/flavor/minimal [7] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/flavor/core * [8] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/flavor/desktop [9] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/flavor/workstation [10] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/flavor/hardened Currently available mix-ins profiles: [11] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/audio [12] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/console-extras [13] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/dvd [14] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/gnome [15] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/kde [16] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/mate [17] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/media [18] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/print [19] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/python3-only [20] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/rhel5-compat [21] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/server-db [22] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/server-mail [23] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/server-web [24] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/X [25] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/xfce [26] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/vmware-guest [27] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/hardened
After seeing a list of available profiles, we want to add in the gnome profile. To do this, run the following:
# eselect profile
You are provided with two packages that will pull in this desktop environment:
- gnome -- This is the "whole shabang" - pulls in a range of applications made for the gnome desktop environment including a few games, an archive manager, a system monitor, a web browser, a terminal, etc.

To emerge gnome-light run the following command
# emerge --ask gnome-light
To emerge gnome run the following command
# emerge --ask gnome

When preparing for a new job, refining skills at the office, or becoming more proficient at certain tasks, a person may have to train in a new environment or office. As such, many training rooms and other office areas make use of training room tables.

Training tables are helpful for getting employees on the same page when working on challenging projects or learning a new skill. By using computer tables and other specialized training room furniture, a business may be able to train or work with employees more effectively.

After Slamming Palin, NY Times Excited for Up Coming Obama Death Panels
For The New York Times, Steven Ratner had to admit last month that he was pretty darned excited for those Obamacare death panels to get started. "WE need death panels," he said on September 16. This from the same paper that in 2009 attacked Gov. Sarah Palin for her rhetoric and an Old Media establishment that gave Palin a "lie of the year" award for her claim that Obamacare death panels were coming.
The Times sudden appreciation of death panels isn't the only bit of hypocrisy revealed in Ratner's article. His very first paragraph wallows in rank hypocrisy.
Well, maybe not death panels, exactly, but unless we start allocating health care resources more prudently — rationing, by its proper name — the exploding cost of Medicare will swamp the federal budget.
So, not only is Ratner suddenly looking forward to the very death panels his paper mocked Palin for alerting us all to back in 2009, but he's now openly admitting that the costs of Obamacare will skyrocket unless we start rationing care and telling some people they aren't allowed to have health saving procedures!
Doesn't this paragraph prove out what conservatives have been saying about Obamacare since day one? That there will be rationing, that some government agency will be deciding who will live and who will die, that the costs will be ruinous, and that the Democrat's claims that "everyone will get care" is an outright lie — this is what we've been saying from the beginning.
Yet, we were told by the Times and Democrats that no rationing was in the offing. We were told we could keep our doctors if we like them. We were sold all sorts of rosy scenarios telling us how great Obamacare would be and the Times led the charge to convince America to acquiesce to Obamacare.
Now that the mess is passed and soon to go into effect, here is Ratner admitting that everything conservatives said was right.
The fact is, Obamacare does feature a death panel-like system. Tom Blummer sums it up nicely:
Enter the Independent Payment Advisory Board. ObamaCare deliberately insulated it from normal Congressional oversight and approval (its word is law unless Congress acts; IPAB shouldn't be able act unless Congress approves its budget and priorities). By dictating overall spending levels, IPAB will restrict care without knowing who they're doing it to, leaving the dirty work of deciding exactly who should and shouldn't receive care to hospitals and other medical providers. Consider it death panel outsourcing. You can rest assured that providers will get the latest and greatest advice from the likes of "Zeke the Bleak" Emanuel and others with a utilitarian view of humanity on implementing "quality-adjusted life year system" and other schemes to decide who is unworthy of medical attention up to and including continued life.
Blummer also asked if Politifact was now going to vacate its dubious award to Palin for the Lie of The Year 2009 for her death panel comment?
With Ratner essentially admitting that rationing is a must and that rationing means some won't get life saving care, it is Politifact itself that should be awarded the "lie of the year" award.

During the fall of 1939, President F. D. Roosevelt was made aware of the possibility that German scientists were racing to build an atomic bomb and he was warned that Hitler would be more than willing to resort to such a weapon. As a result, Roosevelt set up the Advisory Committee on Uranium, consisting of both civilian and military representatives, to study the current state of research on uranium and to recommend an appropriate role for the federal government. The result was limited military funding for isotope separation and the work on chain reactions by Enrico Fermi and Leo Szilard at Columbia University.

The iPad Air is ruling the roost as the best tablet in the world, but with prices starting at £399 and rising to over £700, it's clearly priced in a bracket way above many people's budget.
Apple's sky-high prices mean those wanting a more affordable tablet experience will have to look elsewhere, although the original iPad Mini has seen a price cut since its successor, the iPad Mini with Retina display, came onto the scene.
Google's Android operating system now adorns a multitude of tablets, from those priced at the same lofty heights of Apple's offerings such as the Samsung Galaxy Tab S and Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet, to those that can be picked up for less than £100 at your local supermarket – although we'd advise against purchasing most of these, and instead check out the superior options below.
We're also seeing Windows 8 tablets beginning to drop in price, although they're still not at the level of the Android slates.
Be sure to check out our tablet buying guide too.
If you can't quite hack the lower offerings, and you've managed to scrape together enough money to indulge in a pricier tablet experience, then take a gander at the following:
For those of you who are still with us, well done. To reward you for your loyalty, here are some top tablets for under £250.
9. Acer Iconia W4
OS: Windows 8.1
Review score: 4/5
We always knew it was going to happen, and at last it has. We finally have some low cost Windows 8.1 tablets, and the Iconia W4 is now sitting comfortably within the £250 threshold.
The big selling point of the Iconia W4 is its full blown Windows 8.1 operating system, giving you all the functionality of a PC on an 8-inch display and wrapped in a portable chassis.
Its 1.33GHz quad-core processor may not be the most powerful around, and with 2GB of RAM it's less powerful than some high-end smartphones, but with a decent display and reasonable battery life the Iconia W4 is a solid performer.
- Read our in-depth Acer Iconia W4 review
8. Lenovo Miix 2
OS: Windows 8.1
Review score: 4/5
A superior design sees the Lenovo Miix 2 sneak in just ahead of its simarly specced Windows 8.1 rival, the Acer Iconia W4.
It sports the same 1.33GHz quad-core processor and 2GB of RAM, but its 1200 x 800 display is a touch smaller at 8 inches, rather than 8.1 - it's also a touch cheaper than the W4.
For a small tablet that's easy to hold and carry around, the Lenovo Miix 2 8 doesn't get much wrong. It's certainly one of the nicer 8-inch Windows 8.1 tablet's we've tried but you'll need to keep your expectations in check.

7. Archos 80 Titanium
OS: Android 4.1 Jelly Bean
Review score: 4/5
It might be rocking an old version of Google's Jelly Bean platform, but the Archos 80 Titanium still offers a fluid experience at a low, low price.
The 80 Titanium doesn't look or feel as good as the other tablets in this run down, but considering you're getting a 1.6Ghz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, 8-inch HD display, microSD slot and front and rear cameras it's still a capable device.
If you're looking for a tablet with a decently sized screen and won't cost you an arm and a leg the Archos 80 Titanium will do all your basic tasks with minimum fuss.
- Read our in-depth Archos 80 Titanium review
6. Tesco Hudl
OS: Android 4.2 Jelly Bean
Review score: 4/5
The Tesco Hudl. Yep, that's right, Tesco - the supermarket. Don't let that put you off though, the Hudl is a fantastic tablet that will cost you just a shade over £100.
Normally when a tablet is this cheap alarm bells ring left, right and centre, but the Tesco Hudl is one of those rare £100 slates which you can actually depend on.
The cameras are pretty shocking, it takes a while to charge and it's not the snappiest tablet around, but with a sharp display and ample storage as well as stock Android there's a lot to love about the Hudl.

With Jeter out, Yanks ask Kuroda to knot up ALCS
The Tigers prevailed, 6-4, in 12 innings to gain the upper hand, but there was a muted tone to their clubhouse in the afterglow.
Out of respect for Jeter, arguably the most popular guy within the players' fraternity, there was little of the upbeat talk of momentum gained heading into Game 2 on Sunday.
"You don't want to see the captain going down like that," said Tigers first baseman Prince Fielder. "Not only is he a great player -- he's a great guy, down to earth and humble. He forces us all to play the game the way he does, running out ground balls hard every time. He's Derek Jeter. He's the man."
Anibal Sanchez takes the ball in Game 2 for Detroit, with Hiroki Kuroda going for the Yankees on only three days' rest for the first time in his Major League career.
Detroit starters, led by ace Justin Verlander, have been brilliant this postseason, allowing just five earned runs in 41 innings with 46 strikeouts.
The bullpen, however, has started more fires than it has extinguished.
Jeter, the seemingly indomitable Yankees captain, needed assistance getting off the field after collapsing to the infield dirt in the game-turning 12th inning. He fielded a ground ball by Jhonny Peralta before losing his balance and tumbling to the ground.
Elevated for 17 years by Jeter's greatness, the Yankees have to soldier on, trying to ignore the severity of the loss.
"It's terrible," Andy Pettitte said, "but we've got a series to play, and somebody's going to have to take his spot."
Jayson Nix assumed the shortstop position, but nobody, realistically, replaces Jeter.
Pettitte sensed it was serious as Jeter writhed in pain in the dirt and was not surprised to learn the ankle was fractured.
"For him to lay down on that field, I knew something was broke or torn," Pettitte said, having gone 6 2/3 innings in a duel with Detroit starter Doug Fister. "When he didn't get up, I knew he was done, that he wasn't going to be able to play in the series. It's a bad loss -- the captain. Guys have got to move forward and play."
Jeter tried to jump-start the offense with a leadoff walk in the first and a single in the second, the 200th postseason hit of his career. The No. 2 man on the list, Bernie Williams, retired with 128 postseason hits.
It took them five games and eight innings of postseason play, but the Bronx Bombers of renown finally surfaced with a ninth-inning flurry against embattled Detroit closer Jose Valverde.
Ichiro Suzuki and Raul Ibanez unloaded matching two-run homers, sending it into extra innings. But the momentum was not sustained, and it was Detroit producing the decisive runs on Delmon Young's RBI double and Andy Dirks' infield hit against David Phelps after Jeter had departed.
"We'd love to see him out playing with us and playing against him," Young said of Jeter, "because it is really fun playing the Yankees -- especially when Derek Jeter is healthy."
New York manager Joe Girardi would love to see his offense get an earlier wakeup call. The Yankees have scored more times in the ninth inning or later (11 runs) than in the first eight innings (nine) of their six postseason games.
Winning Game 1 is a nice start, but the Tigers aren't taking anything for granted.
"It was important to come back after we let the lead get away, but we know it's not going to be easy" said leadoff catalyst Austin Jackson, who tripled, doubled and made a sensational catch in center field. "You hate to see that happen to Derek, but we know anything can happen. We have a lot of work left to do."
In 42 previous ALCS matchups, the team that won Game 1 has gone on to win the pennant 25 times, a .595 winning percentage.
In postseason history, Fall Classic included, Game 1 winners are 171-92, a .650 winning percentage.
Teams that seize the first two games are 19-3 in ALCS history.
The Yankees are 7-2 in series after losing Game 1 at home, and the Tigers are 3-0 in series after claiming Game 1 on the road.
The Yankees got big efforts in Game 1 from Ibanez and Ichiro.
Ibanez, who walked and doubled before his tying two-out homer in the ninth, has 16 total bases in 14 at-bats in this postseason.
Ichiro's four-hit effort in Game 1 was the first for a Yankees hitter in postseason play since Jeter went 5-for-5 against the Tigers on Oct. 3, 2006.
Yet the struggles of the Yankees' offense continue. Alex Rodriguez, 2-for-19 without an extra-base hit in the postseason, is drawing most of the attention, but he has company.
Robinson Cano has two hits, both doubles, in 28 postseason at-bats. Curtis Granderson is 3-for-23 with a homer and one RBI. Nick Swisher is 3-for-22 with a double and one RBI.
"We need this guy to be Alex," Girardi said before Rodriguez went 0-for-3, robbed by Peralta at shortstop of a bases-loaded hit in the first. "That's the bottom line. If we want to make some noise, we need this guy to be Alex."
That need has increased with Jeter's loss.

Youngsters take stage in Rangers-Cardinals show
Perez looking to stick with Texas; Miller aiming to continue hot streak
When the Rangers and Cardinals locked horns in the 2011 World Series, Martin Perez and Shelby Miller were nowhere to be found.
Perez split the '11 campaign between Double-A Frisco and Triple-A Round Rock. Miller spent the season with Class A Palm Beach and Double-A Springfield.
On Saturday, the two will duel in the second contest of a three-game set between the competitors of that year's Fall Classic.
Injuries to Alexi Ogando and Matt Harrison paved the way for Perez to join the starting rotation. He hopes to stay there.
"I want to stay here as long as I can," Perez said. "I'm not thinking maybe this is it. I want to be here."
Perez has made one start for Texas this season. On May 27, he allowed four runs (three earned) on nine hits over 5 1/3 innings of a 5-3 loss to Arizona.
"I don't want to put too much pressure on myself," Perez said. "I just want to do the same job I did down there. If I throw the ball the way I want, I should have a good chance."
Perez will face a team that thrives during Interleague Play. The Cardinals are 127-112 all-time, the top winning percentage among all National League teams. This season, St. Louis is 3-2 against the American League.
Those numbers don't mean a whole lot to St. Louis skipper Mike Matheny, who cares much more about his club's performance against its own league.
"I like the competition in our league," Matheny said. "That's what really dictates whether or not we get to continue playing at the end of the season. ... But it really doesn't matter what I think, what the players think, it matters what the fan base thinks. And the league office decides, and they decided this is good for the game of baseball, so we go out to play to win."
Rangers: Soria starts rehab assignment
Right-hander Joakim Soria tossed a scoreless inning for Double-A Frisco on Thursday. It was his first professional appearance since Sept. 11, 2011. Soria missed the entire 2012 season because of Tommy John surgery. The two-time All-Star racked up 160 saves with the Royals from 2007-11.
Cardinals: Miller continues strong campaign
Miller, who will face the Rangers for the first time, is looking for his ninth win of the season. He has earned a victory in three of his last four outings. On Monday, he blanked the Cubs over five innings, limiting Chicago to two hits and two walks. He departed early because of cramping in his right leg.
"I know I wasn't taking care of myself fluid-wise, drinking enough electrolytes," Miller said. "It's something I need to start staying on top of and making it part of my routine."
Worth noting
• Texas traded pitcher Yoshinori Tateyama to the Yankees for future considerations.
• The Rangers passed on Miller in the 2009 First-Year Player Draft and instead selected another Texas high schooler, Matt Purke, who didn't sign with the team.

no big deal, as long as everything is else is still o.k. can't wait to see J.C in this and Mother russia hit girl and big daddy..i loved the first one, it lived up to it's name , kick ass...
Universal Pictures did some minor tinkering with their summer release schedule today, with 2 Guns moving up two weeks (to August 2) while Kick-Ass 2 gets pushed back.from July 28 to August 16, 2013.
The follow-up to Matthew Vaughn's 2010 adaptation stars Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Chloë Grace Moretz, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Jim Carrey, Morris Chestnut, John Leguizamo and Donald Faison. Vaughn opted out of the directing duties this time around, relinquishing the chair to scribe Jeff Wadlow,
Plot Concept: After Kick-Ass' (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) insane bravery inspires a new wave of self-made masked crusaders, led by the badass Colonel Stars and Stripes (Jim Carrey), our hero joins them on patrol. When these amateur superheroes are hunted down by Red Mist (Christopher Mintz-Plasse)—reborn as The Mother F%&*^r—only the blade-wielding Hit Girl (Chloë Grace Moretz) can prevent their annihilation.
When we last saw junior assassin Hit Girl and young vigilante Kick-Ass, they were trying to live as normal teenagers Mindy and Dave. With graduation looming and uncertain what to do, Dave decides to start the world's first superhero team with Mindy. Unfortunately, when Mindy is busted for sneaking out as Hit Girl, she's forced to retire—leaving her to navigate the terrifying world of high-school mean girls on her own. With no one left to turn to, Dave joins forces with Justice Forever, run by a born-again ex-mobster named Colonel Stars and Stripes.
Just as they start to make a real difference on the streets, the world's first super villain, The Mother F%&*^r, assembles his own evil league and puts a plan in motion to make Kick-Ass and Hit Girl pay for what they did to his dad. But there's only one problem with his scheme: If you mess with one member of Justice Forever, you mess with them all.
Kick-Ass 2 enters theaters on August 16, 2013.
no big deal, as long as everything is else is still o.k. can't wait to see J.C in this and Mother russia hit girl and big daddy..i loved the first one, it lived up to it's name , kick ass...
no big deal, as long as everything is else is still o.k. can't wait to see J.C in this and Mother russia hit girl and big daddy..i loved the first one, it lived up to it's name , kick ass...
Don't care; not interesting enough to pay to see in a theatre. I'll wait until it hits Redbox.
Agree Darth. I'm in the minority that didn't like the first one as I hated the changes they made from the book.
I'm guessing this will all be the same.
I'm looking forward to this ... The first one is awesome and Nick Cage is back =) aka Elvis...Thank ya ... Thank ya very much.
THe plot sounds epic and awesome i must say reading it, and picturing it in my head.
oh and Dudes, for all you "Harlem Shake" and NBA fans. You have got to youtube the "Miami Heat-Harlem Shake". it is epic.
Well, I'm grateful the first one got made regardless of the changes. They were necessary changes as the film was independently funded by Matthew Vaughn himself and he had to do the lobbying himself for extra cash. Those changes don't get made, the film doesn't get made. That's one of the problems with independently funding a movie. The guys with the cash can make stipulations. The comic book had some pretty extreme stuff that wouldn't fly in a movie. It probably would've never got past the MPAA if it actually featured Hit Girl taking a government enhanced drug before taking out some goons.
I love the first film and can't wait for the 2nd. Just too bad Vaughn isn't directing. That's the only thing that makes me nervous. I'll take any excuse to see more Lyndsy Fonseca anyday, I could stare at her face all day.
