2012 Maritime Heroes Award winner announced
by Jake Fish on 4 Jan 2013
In the culmination of an inaugural campaign to recognize people that make significant contributions to their local sailing community, Old Pulteney Single Malt Scotch Whisky and US Sailing announce the winner of the 2012 Old Pulteney Maritime Heroes Award. Donald Backe of Annapolis, Maryland, one of six 'unsung hero' finalists considered for the top honor, received the most votes in an online public vote. Backe will be honored at an award ceremony in January during US Sailing's 2013 National Sailing Programs Symposium in Clearwater, Florida.
Backe was nominated by a member of his sailing community for creating the Chesapeake Region Accessible Boating (C.R.A.B) organization whose mission is to inspire and teach the disabled to sail. Backe founded C.R.A.B in 1991 so that sailing could be experienced by physically and mentally challenged individuals, as well as those who weren't able to participate in the sport for financial reasons. Because of Backe's tenacity and will, C.R.A.B. has evolved into a four-sailboat fleet, home ported at Sandy Point State Park outside Annapolis.
'When I founded C.R.A.B I certainly didn't intend to win an award,' said Backe. 'Since that time the organization has changed many lives. It feels great to be recognized for making a difference and it just makes me want to do more.'
'The work that Donald Backe has done with C.R.A.B. captures everything we wanted to highlight in this search,' said Pat Graney, President of International Beverage USA. 'Backe's work is generous, inspirational and obviously bringing his love of sailing to those who otherwise wouldn't experience it. We and our partners at US sailing are honored to present him with this award.'
Old Pulteney, the official scotch of US Sailing, is commonly referred to as 'The Maritime Malt.' Its carefully crafted taste carries the windswept and rugged character of the North, the salty and fresh air of the North Sea and the distillery's rich seafaring heritage. The distillery is one of the oldest in Scotland and operates in Wick, the most northerly point of the Scottish mainland.
'We had great success in 2012 and look forward to expanding the Old Pulteney Maritime Heroes Award in the coming years,' said Amy Larkin, Marketing Director of US Sailing.

Adam Levine Continues Dissing MTV for Not Representing Music
Adam Levine is not withdrawing his statement about MTV being indifferent to music. Instead, the Maroon 5 frontman emphasized further what he meant with "F**k you, VMAs" which he wrote on Twitter just a day before the awards show was held on Sunday, August 28.
In a new interview with E! Online, Levine said that a lot of musicians felt the same way but "they just don't say it". He added, "It's public knowledge that it's not a music channel," referring to the network's reality shows such as "Jersey Shore". "It's become a huge promotional opportunity for artists, which is a good thing. I think that great artists were there and they were represented and there could have been more," Levine continued.
To Wonderwall, the mentor on "The Voice" was more blatant about his personal feeling toward the channel. "I was also upset that we've never really been included. Of course, I was a little bit jilted. At least at some certain point in our career, we should've been more involved, and obviously they responded with saying that we won a Moonman in 2004 - which was 7 years ago, by the way - which was great and we thank them for that."
"We also weren't invited to perform on the VMAs that year either. We weren't even there. So we basically didn't get invited the year we won either. So I was pissed, and I'm pissed off in general because I don't think that it's music television anymore, and I don't think they should pretend to be."

Wawrinka fights back to beat Federer in Monte Carlo final
MONTE CARLO, (Reuters) – Stanislas Wawrinka signalled his French Open ambitions by beating Roger Federer 4-6 7-6 (5) 6-2 in an all-Swiss Monte Carlo Masters final yesterday.
Third seed and Australian Open champion Wawrinka recovered from the loss of the opening set to claim his maiden Masters title on the Monte Carlo clay just six weeks before the May 25-June 8 grand slam tournament in Paris.
"I can see that when mentally I'm there and I'm fighting, I can play tennis, I can beat all the players," Wawrinka told reporters.
"When I came here, for me it was more like a test. I knew I was playing good tennis, but I didn't expect to win because the draw was so strong.
"Clay, it's natural for me. It's easy. I'm always happy to come back on clay. It's always easy."
Federer, whose only defeat in 14 previous matches against Wawrinka was in Monte Carlo in 2009, said: "I had a great week. Congratulations to Stan, I hope it will continue for you like that for years."
Fourth seed Federer, who beat an injured Novak Djokovic in the semi-finals, was his brilliant old self for almost an hour but the 17-times grand slam champion was eventually overwhelmed by his opponent's power.
Wawrinka played with great depth as Federer was eventually pushed back far from his baseline and was prevented from attacking.
"I don't think I served quite so well early on in the third set," Federer said.
"I think he really found his range and started to hit bigger, deeper. He didn't miss that many second serve returns anymore.
"He gave me a couple cheap points in the first couple sets which he later on really didn't give me anymore."
Federer saved a break point in the fourth game, Wawrinka banging his racket on his head in frustration after his passing shot went long.
Federer was more composed, breaking for 3-2 as Wawrinka's usually reliable backhand sailed long.
Another long backhand from Wawrinka gave Federer the opening set after 42 minutes.
Wawrinka opened a 2-0 lead in the second set, only for his opponent to steal his serve straight back with a stunning backhand down the line.
Federer saved more break points in the fourth game, including one with a superb forehand winner as the second set went to a tiebreak.
Federer saved two set points before Wawrinka finished it off with a smash.
Wawrinka broke in the first game of the decider with a forehand winner down the line as Federer looked disorientated.
Federer went to the net to save another break point at 2-0, but a crosscourt forehand earned Wawrinka a second break and a 3-0 lead.
He followed up on serve and Federer never threatened a comeback, bowing out following yet another forehand winner by Wawrinka.

50 Cent is unrecognisable as he loses FOUR STONE in nine weeks for new film role
This would appear to be a picture of a homeless man surviving on scraps.
But it's actually multi-millionaire rapper 50 Cent, who has lost a staggering 54lbs (4st) in just nine weeks for a film role.
The hip-hop star went on a liquid-only diet and worked out for three hours a day to achieve the staggering weight loss.
The formerly muscular 34-year-old is taking method acting to levels that Christian Bale would be proud of.
Down to 25 Cent: A gaunt-looking 50 Cent shows off the effects of his 54 pound weight loss in a photo on his official website
Buff: 50 Cent shows off his famous muscles on stage at a gig last year
He is due to play a cancer-stricken American football player in a forthcoming film and wanted to look authentic for the part.
In the past 50 Cent has made much of his muscular body, often appearing topless in videos and showing off his huge frame.
He is starring and co-producing Things Fall Apart, which will also feature Ray Liotta and is directed by Mario van Peebles.
Soon after the dramatic weight loss pictures were posted on his website, 50cent.com, rumours swept the internet they were a hoax.
But in a statement the star, real name Curtis Jackson, confirmed the pictures were authentic.
'I was starving,' he said, adding that now he is back on tour, 'I've been eating. I'll be back in shape in no time!'
In the film which is set for release in 2011, 50 Cent plays a football player diagnosed with cancer.
He dropped from 214 pounds to an astonishing 160 pounds with a liquid diet and three-hour-a-day treadmill walks for nine weeks.
'Starving': 50 Cent went on a liquid-only diet and spent three hours on the treadmill every day to shift the weight
The rapper's achievement still does not top that of Christian Bale, who lost 63lbs for his role in the dark mystery film 'The Machinist'.
Bale went from 185lbs to 122lbs to look like he 'had not slept for a year' and did it by cutting out most foods and relentlessly exercising.
In addition, the rapper - real name Curtis Jackson has had the tattoos on his arms removed in preparation for his acting career.
He has said: 'I took 'em off. I've been on a few acting projects and they
been making me get up… My call time is four hours before the regular
acting talent because of the tattoos.'
Jackson made his film debut in the semi-autobiographical semi-autobiographical film Get Rich or Die Tryin' in 2005.
He starred in the Iraq War film Home of the Brave in 2006, and opposite Robert De Niro in 2008 crime thriller Righteous Kill in 2008.
And last year starred in Brit gangster film Dead Man Running.
'Fiddy' is one of the music world's richest performers, with an estimated fortune of $440 million in 2008.
Last year Billboard Magazine named him 6th best artist of the 2000-2009 decade.

Product Design: Swedish student's system to pay at shops by using vein scanning!
Us Brits are meant to be huge fans of queuing but in actual fact we're even bigger fans of speeding up these processes. Already we've seen contactless payments remove the time-consuming pin-entry procedure but now a Swedish student has gone one better with a system that SCANS YOUR VEINS.
Fredrik Leifland got the idea while stuck in a painfully slow supermarket queue and so he and some fellow classmates at Lund University looked into whether existing vein scanning technology could be used as part of a payment system.
"We had to connect all the players ourselves, which was quite complex: the vein scanning terminals, the banks, the stores and the customers," he says. "The next step was finding ways of packaging it into a solution that was user friendly. Every individual's vein pattern is completely unique, so there really is no way of committing fraud with this system. You always need your hand scanned for a payment to go through."
So far 15 stores and restaurants in and around the university campus have adopted the futuristic technology and more than 1,600 people make use of the handy alternative to messing about with key pads.
While it sounds like pure science fiction, Frederik's system could alleviate some of the most day-to-day tedium we endure.

Bruins forward Shawn Thornton checked in with Dennis & Callahan on Wednesday morning to offer his take on Tuesday's 2-1 victory over the Rangers that gave the Bruins a 3-0 series lead.
Thornton and his teammates on the fourth line — Daniel Paille and Gregory Campbell — came up big Tuesday, as they were on the ice for both of the Bruins' goals.
"I'm lucky to play with those two guys," Thornton said. "They're not fourth-liners on a lot of other teams. I'm fortunate to have them with me."
Thornton noted that all three fourth-liners could have signed elsewhere last offseason, but the Bruins kept the trio together.
"You've got to give Peter [Chiarelli] credit for having faith in us, bringing all three of us back," he said. "We were all free agents at the end of the last season. I think I was the only one that got re-upped during the season. They paid a little money to keep all three of us around.
"I haven't looked at the other fourth lines in the league, but we're compensated pretty well as far as fourth-liners go. We're getting some notoriety right now in the playoffs, but the team believed in us before this."
A key moment in Tuesday's game came when Thornton replaced Brad Marchand on the ice and confronted Derek Dorsett after Dorsett had been harassing Marchand.
"He's doing his job," Thornton said of Dorsett. "He got Marchy off the ice in the first period [on a penalty]. They're both agitators. If they're matching him against Marchy, he's going to try and get under his skin and keep him off the ice as much as possible. Marchy's probably been our best player in this series so far. He's doing his job. I had to go out there and politely say that I wasn't a fan of him being all over our star left winger."
Thornton said he was ready to fight, but either way he wanted to send a message.
"I didn't know [if Dorsett would fight]," Thornton said. "If he had wanted to, then I definitely would have obliged. I joked about being polite; I wasn't going out there to ask him what dinner was later."
Added Thornton: "It's a job. I've been doing it for a long time. Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn't. I was happy we got to play after that, too, that it wasn't our last shift."
NESN Bruins analyst Barry Pederson, speaking with D&C earlier in the morning, said he thought Dorsett's failure to stand up to Thornton sucked the energy out of the Rangers. Thornton didn't necessarily agree.
"No, I don't think so. I wouldn't put the blame on him for it," Thornton said. "I think we maybe turned it up another level. Not so much that they got the life sucked out of them.
"I don't know how to say this without sounding cocky: If I'm asking to fight, it's not going to be an easy fight for him, either. Not that I'm saying I could beat him up. I'm just saying it won't be an easy fight, and that might have taken the life out of everyone, too. Or it might have gotten my team going even more. I don't know. You can never I guess speculate on what was going to happen in different situations."
The Rangers power play has been unsuccessful in 10 opportunities this series, including two chances Tuesday night.
"Our PK coach, Doug Houda, does a really good job preparing our guys," Thornton said. "We actually make fun of him a little bit in the room because he's always walking around with a laptop showing people different things. It seems like he has 15 PK meetings day. We give him a hard time.
"You know what, they've got some skilled guys over there. They're getting a couple of chances, but I think our guys have been doing a really good job of reacting properly."
Thornton does not expect the Rangers to lay down in Thursday's Game 4.
"We've got to come out strong," Thornton said. "We say it all the time: The fourth one's the hardest one to win. There's a reason for that. Their backs are going to be up against the wall. They're going to want to play it one game at a time, starting with the next one. So, we're going to have to bring everything we can in the first period, hopefully get out in front of them."

Albatron PX845E Pro II Motherboard Review
Taking A Closer Look
- Package Contents
The board comes packaged in a nicely designed, multi-colored box that is sure to stand out on store shelves. Inside the box was a detailed User's Manual, three IDE cables, one floppy cable, a driver CD and a USB expansion header that enables four extra USB ports. Also included on the driver CD is a free, full version OEM copy of PC-Cillin Anti-virus 2002.
This is not the most elaborate software bundle we have seen packaged with a motherboard, however, you must remember that Albatron is targeting the enthusiast market with this board and many enthusiasts are most likely to already own this software. As a rule, they are just looking for a cheap, high performance motherboard without the bells and whistles.
Layout & Features
The Albatron PX845E Pro II features a slot layout of 1 AGP, 6 PCI and 1 CNR slot. As well as this, the board features three DDR266 DIMM slots supporting up to 2GB of memory. We were quite pleased to see that Albatron has managed to not only include 6 PCI slots, but a CNR slot as well. This is because in most cases, a PCI slot has to be given up in order to include any other slots.
The ATX power header has been smartly placed on the right hand side of the DIMM slots. This is a great position for the power header because unlike some competing board layouts, you are not required to run thick power cable over your heatsink/fan unit, restricting airflow. The IDE and Floppy connectors were also smartly placed allowing easy installation of drives once the board has been installed into your PC.
The Northbridge is cooled by a silver heatsink rather than the active cooler we have come to expect from many manufacturers. My guess is that an added fan gave a negligible temperature difference and besides, I'm sure most of you can do without the added noise anyway.
The PX845E features ATA133 RAID support through the Promise PDC20276 controller. This means that the board provides support for a total of four IDE devices on the RAID controller and another four devices on the regular ATA100 controller built into the Southbridge, giving a total of eight IDE devices.
The board also features a 10/100 LAN port. This should come in very handy for many of you and from our internal testing, the controller actually performs quite admirably, even against PCI solutions. Another feature the PX845E touts is an AC'97 audio controller. Providing 6-channel audio, its sound quality is quite decent and is certainly sufficient for general windows use.

Did I miss something or was I dreaming when I saw Derrick Favors' name in the box score? And didn't the enire bench end up with positive +/- numbers? That's an issue Coach Corbin needs to consider and it certainly should have been part of the evaluation of the team.

Opening a restaurant in the Fort Greene/Boerum Hill area in the postBarclays Center era has proved to be a bit of a feat; owners and chefs are tempted to overcompensate in an attempt to indulge, pulling out all the bells and whistles to match the energy of a performance by Miley or Katy. Essentially, pizzazz, but not much substance. Better to aim for classic Brooklyn style, and it's possible that Doug Crowell and Ryan Angulo have created one with their follow up to Buttermilk Channel. The space is easily as impressive as the Carroll Gardens favorite right out of the gate: Warm and comforting, it opens with a handsome wood bar, continues with chocolate-leather banquettes throughout, and ends with expansive outdoor seating. Both of the restaurants serve New American fare, but French Louie puts an emphasis on blurring the lines between the French and American cuisines. Light and fluffy gougères find their place on the menu of starters, and soup en croûte, a frenchie salad, and snails marchand de vin round out the small plates menu. The snails, served with bacon over grits, are the easy winner. But the meats are the real stars of the menu: There are three options of steak frites, each served with a savory housemade steak sauce and perfectly seasoned French fries, and each cut is delectable, generous, and expertly seared. Though there are a handful of vegetarian options, stick to the meat-dish knockouts, especially the silky lamb neck and toothsome duck breast. The fun doesn't stop there: The cocktail list runs the gamut from the classic (French 75) to sophisticated nouveau (the Saul Panzer includes aged rum, yellow chartreuse, and aperol) with not a single misstep.

I was beyond disappointed with Qantas. The small amount of leg room on the A380 is a joke! Our 11 year old daughter could not get comfortable. We travel quite often to the USA and Qantas was our preference.. Well not any more. Food awful, service average, seats beyond an insult for the price.

Take a taxi from the Linate Airport to Milano Centrale train station. Then take a train to Varenna-Esino. Note the spelling and full names of the train stations.
To get to Zermatt from Varenna, you'd have to return to Milano Centrale before heading to Zermatt. There may be additional connections after Milan depending on the departure you select. You can buy tickets now for Milan-Zermatt or wait to buy after you arrive, but there may be discounts available now on the Milan-Zermatt portion.
Depending on the time of year, it would probably be faster to drive from Varenna to Zermatt, but there are additional issues to consider. Unless you'd be returning the car in Italy after Zermatt, the drop fee could be very expensive. I'm pretty sure you'd have to buy Swiss roadway tax 'vignettes.'
And Zermatt is car-free, so you'd park/leave the car short of your final destination.
Where are you going after Zermatt?

tHATS GREAT HELP! I LEAVE ON 9/5 RETRUN FROM PRAGUE ON 9/26. PLACES ARE VERENNA TO ZERMATT TO INTERLAKEN TO MUNICH TO SALZBURG TO VIENNA TO PRAGUE. ANY RECOMMENDATION ON ANYTHING? ONLY THING BOOKED IS FLIGHT AND VERNNA ACCOMODATIONS. THANKS

Seven destinations in 21 days? Hold on to your hat! You're going to be moving fast... and often!
Have you searched all of the train timetables to see how much time it takes to travel between these destinations? At a minimum, you'll lose half a day moving between some cities, but other journeys will eat up the useful part of an entire day.

We have just returned from Italy, and loved our days at Lake Como. The train from Milano Centrale to Varenna: we used the regional train and landed in the only part of the train without aircon on a very hot day. Only later did we realize that the rest of the train was nice and cool! The journey itself was great - try to get seats on the left side of the train for some lovely views. Make sure that you know from which platform the train leaves - you will not find 'Varenna-Esino' on the overhead boards. Do not use the toilet at Varenna Station - 3 weeks ago it was really really dirty
I want to concur with Jean above - it takes more time (and energy) to move from one place to the next than you image. Rather spend an extra day at the lakes, take the ferry to Menaggio (15 minutes) and drink a campari in front of Hotel du Lac while the sun glitters just so on the water!

The train to Zermatt is a pain as it involves multiple changes. Going by car would be even a bigger pain as it would involve a ferry, one or more mountain passes, magnificent landscapes but very tiring roads, and you cannot even reach Zermatt by car.

The Grove at Shrewsbury
567 Broad Street
Shrewsbury, NJ 07702
(732) 747-2262
Monday thru Friday, 10a.m. 9p.m.
Saturday, 10a.m. 6p.m.
Sunday, 11a.m. 5p.m.
A womens contemporary designer boutique, glow is located in The Grove at Shrewsbury. The boutique houses some of the most coveted clothing and shoe designers in the industry, such as 3.1 Phillip Lim, Rag & Bone, Alexander Wang, Ports 1961, Loeffler Randall, Camilla Skovgaard, plus over 20 other collections as well.
What do you feel sets you apart from your competition?
Eastern Monmouth County certainly has its fair share of clothing boutiques. However, our focus and energy has always been inward as a means of solidifying our own reputation, following, and sustainability. This business model has been working for us from the beginning our buying and designer scouting is done internally as is marketing, merchandising, and social media relations. Our 30 collections of clothing and shoes are exclusive to glow, locally, and this limited exposure has enabled us over the years to create our own niche in which our customers know that they are getting the most well-edited selection of merchandise and must-have items that designers are offering each season in a relaxed, yet attentive shopping environment. Our customers are the most important component of what we do and seeing them feel and look fabulous in what they wear every day, as well as to their special events, is the reason we love doing what we do.
Why would a current customer tell a friend or family member that they should shop at your store?
Many of our customers have become our friends over the years as we see many of them weekly to outfit their wardrobes for everyday as well as any special parties and charity events that come up throughout the season. Many of our other customers travel from outside Monmouth County to visit us when they need that perfect dress and shoe for a special event. They have read or heard that we carry over 100 styles of occasion dresses each season. glow also specializes in one-on-one customer service, which gives the shopper a much more efficient shopping experience than being lost in a large department store and leaving unsuccessful.
Are there any new trends or things you would point to that our readers should know about your establishment?
This winter we are seeing a number of strong easy to wear looks dominating the collections. Bright blue and vivid red lead the palette. Knits are definitely the lead fabric. We have so many strong knits this season, especially sweater dresses. Our designers really created the most amazing knits we have seen in years, especially after last years blizzard driven winter, I think they realized how key great knits are for everyone. Our customers live in their knits all season, and this year we are excited to bring everyone the best and coziest knits that are out there. We have a large selection of chic scarves that we always recommend as a season essential: great as a gift or self purchase. Many of our must-have items are posted weekly on our style blog: www.shopglowonline.com/blog.

Looks like a pretty bad read to me…
Having just read it I'd say you've massively over-estimated its quality.
I thought it was worth a glance (single page, not slide show) as an interesting reminder of some of the "ahead of their time" gadgets that were nifty, and sometimes groundbreaking, but completely obsolete 18 months later.
Most illustrated the handicap of being first to market.
Clearing out my old storage I recently ran across a box of various "special issue on the 21st century" magazines I had saved back in 1999… they are full of similar products, and mostly vastly underestimated the accelerating advances and spread of information tech. I guess my saving the paper versions not realizing they would all be freely cached on the web kind of illustrates the same thinking.
On the other hand, watching some reruns of Star Trek TNG last night it looked like everyone had iPads.
The Surface? Really? I guess $120 is a lot to spend on a cover, but it doesn't seem that much more exorbitant to me than a $40 iPad Smart Cover. Seems like a pretty minor offender compared to some of the other items on this list.
I had the opposite reaction, after reading that the $120 accessory cost $16 to make.
I guess the point is that, with the Surface, that keyboard/cover is constantly shown as being essential to using the Surface, and not really an option. So, it really should be included with the thing, and not sold as a $120 add-on.
The iPad Smart Cover, on the other hand, isn't necessary at all to the functioning of the thing. It's a true optional accessory.
There are however, two different surface covers manufactured by Microsoft, and no doubt some 3rd parties will be developing their own covers down the line (or have already, I'm unsure). So whilst I agree a cover of some sort is essentially necessary, it makes sense for Microsoft not to bundle.
Also, "Starting from $499" is better marketing than "Starting from $629" or whatever it would cost with the cover.
So, it's just a list of Apple products?
No, but there's three on there. The Lisa, the Mac G4 Cube, and the Newton MessagePad 2100.
It's a very strange list to be described as "The 15 Most Overpriced Gadgets of All Time". I would think "All Time" would cover centuries of history — this is mostly things from the past decade, with one or two things from the 1980s.

ARMA games publisher Bohemia Interactive resets passwords after attack
Joins Ubisoft and Codemasters
GAMES PUBLISHER Bohemia Interactive is requiring its website and forum users to reset their passwords after uncovering unauthorised access to parts of its website.
Bohemia Interactive is best known for its ARMA military simulator titles. It announced yesterday that it had uncovered unauthorised access to its web servers, and is forcing all users to change their passwords despite saying that no credit card information was stored in any of its databases.
According to Bohemia Interactive the unauthorised access led to the downloading of a database that stored usernames, email addresses and encrypted passwords. The firm said that the database did not include any credit card information and the passwords were encrypted, claiming this makes it "very unlikely that anything nefarious can be done with this information", though that is unlikely to calm users' fears.
The games publisher said, "As a precaution we are resetting the passwords of all users which means you will be unable to log into any of our websites/forums until your password is changed." It is forcing all users to go to a "recover password" website that emails new passwords to existing account holders. Users should also change their passwords at any other website(s) where they used the same password.
Bohemia Interactive isn't the first game publisher to face unauthorised access in recent months, with Ubisoft having urged 58 million users to change their passwords earlier this month, while Codemasters also announced it had been a hacking victim. µ

Tony Stark and Pepper Potts Get Closer in New 'Iron Man 2' Still
For those curious to know how Tony Stark and Pepper Potts' relationship will be told in "Iron Man 2", a new photo from the movie might give a hint. In one of the newly released production images, the major female character is seen drawing her face close to the billionaire's while her hand is put around his waist. Beside the said picture, there is another still which features Iron Man while he unleashes some flashy power from his hand.
During the development of the "Iron Man" sequel, there was rumor that the upcoming film will pick up Tony's love triangle story. Responding to the speculation, director Jon Favreau once claimed the film will still primarily focus on the relationship between the man in iron armor and his assistant, saying "I think the central relationship is still those two characters. It's still Pepper and Tony."
In "Iron Man 2", billionaire inventor Tony is asked to share his technology after the world knows that he is the man behind the armored superhero Iron Man. Unwilling to divulge the secrets behind the Iron Man armor because he fears the information will slip into the wrong hands, Tony forges new alliances and confronts powerful new forces with Pepper and James "Rhodey" Rhodes at his side.
Robert Downey Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow are back to reprise their roles as Tony and Pepper respectively. Playing new villains Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow and Ivan Vanko/Whiplash are Scarlett Johansson and Mickey Rourke. This superhero movie will hit theaters across the U.S. on May 7.

I'm sorry, I've tried several times, but this creature is way to detailed to get in a small OW-thingy. I'm really sorry, but I can't do what I can't do.
