Hi everyone,
It seems that ThemeForest is a place where someone can't do proper business anymore. Just an hour ago our Lens theme ([link removed]) was deleted because someone filed a DMCA takedown because we have stolen everything (these were their words) from the [name removed] theme.
Well if that is the case, I will leave it up to you.
Sorry but it's a painful copy, you have left nav and images – Just like they do!
In all seriousness, I cannot see any similarities, it works and looks different (Obviously themes like this are going to look Similar as most do in the photography category)
..because we have stolen everything (these were their words) from the [name removed] theme.but dont know about code, css, etc.
Yes they're similar but far to be the same thing. [name removed] is better.
@webinpixels: We can guarantee that there aren't two similar lines between these two themes – the DMCA concern only the visual part.
@mountainthemes: It doesn't matter if it's better or not – they DMCA request claim to be the same thing.
On this one I would say the DMCA process failed. I did only a brief surface scan of the designs but I see nothing that would be considered copyright infringement.
Something working against you right now is an unfortunate track record of getting too much "inspiration" from other themes. I remember the original version of that theme you released on May 2nd, 2013. That would have been a valid DMCA in my opinion.
they might look similar but I dont see what you have stolen. However im more concerned that TF/envato would just delete/disable an item without any basis other then receiving a dmca complaint. I think it should come naturally to compare the two items before they take one off just like that. And looking at them both I dont see what is 'stolen' in your theme. The drag concept doesn't belong to the [name removed] author neither does placing the menu in the sidebar.
Hi pixelgrade, I'm sorry to hear you are currently having issues with a DMCA takedown notice.
Please take a moment to read this article, where you can find additional information on how to proceed in case you do not agree that there has been a copyright violation.
However, due to our Community Guidelines, we kindly ask that these matters be discussed via Support. Should you need any further guidance/help, please do open a support ticket and support staff will be glad to assist.
Your patience and understanding are highly appreciated.

Promotion hopefuls Wolves dropped two important points as the early dismissal of striker Nathan Blake proved costly.
Blake was shown the red card after just 14 minutes for an apparent elbow on Millers defender Shaun Barker.
Despite their numerical disadvantage, Wolvess created the bulk of the goalscoring opportunities and even had a late penalty but Colin Cameron's spot-kick was saved by Michael Pollitt.
But with Ipswich and Norwich losing, sixth-placed Wolves actually strengthened their grip on a play-off place.
Dave Jones' side threatened first with Blake's right-footed shot being turned behind for a corner by Pollitt after seven minutes.
Wolves were then dealt a hammer blow when Blake was dismissed.
The 31-year-old appeared to elbow Barker in the area and after consulting his linesman, the referee produced a straight red card.
Winger Mark Kennedy dribbled a left-footed shot wide before Lee Naylor drilled in a 25-yard effort which was held by Pollitt.
Rotherham were forced into a change on the half hour as injured striker Richie Barker was replaced by Darren Byfield.
Cameron was booked for a foul on Millers midfielder Gareth Farrelly before Pollitt tipped Shaun Newton's overhead kick over the crossbar just before the interval.
Rotherham showed more attacking intent at the beginning of the second period and John Mullin had an effort blocked by Naylor after 50 minutes.
Millers midfielder Curtis Woodhouse, back in the side after a hamstring injury, was booked for a foul on Cameron before Alan Lee headed a good opportunity wide for the visitors.
Paul Ince was replaced by Alex Rae on the hour before Scotland international Kenny Miller, who has been in superb form recently, was also taken off with George Ndah his replacement after a month's absence.
The striker almost broke the deadlock after 75 minutes when his header was brilliantly parried by Pollitt and Newton smashed the rebound over the crossbar.
Cameron had a shot superbly saved by Pollitt and the goalkeeper's then kept out the Scotland international's penalty with just three minutes remaining after substitute Dean Sturridge was brought down.
Wolverhampton: Murray, Irwin, Lescott, Butler, Naylor, Newton,
Cameron, Ince, Kennedy, Blake, Miller. Subs: Oakes, Ndah, Clyde,
Rae, Sturridge.
Rotherham: Pollitt, Daws, Shaun Barker, Swailes, Hurst,
Sedgwick, Mullin, Woodhouse, Farrelly, Lee, Richard Barker.

Issa Releases a Maternity Version of Kate Middleton's Iconic Blue Dress
Posted Thursday January 31, 2013 3:41 PM GMT
Photo Credit: Getty Images
It's no secret that Kate Middleton is a massive trendsetter these days, and Issa is capitalizing on the Duchess' appeal with a brand new offering.
Given that Catherine is in the middle of her much-lauded pregnancy, the clothier decided to modify one of their more prolific dresses to accommodate Middleton's mid-section.
The result is a maternity version of Kate's iconic blue dress she wore to announce her engagement to Prince William back in 2010.
Obviously the wrap waist is a bit higher, but other than that Issa's latest edition is pretty much the same as the original.

OWINGS MILLS, Md. - Stevenson men's lacrosse sophomore Ian Bolland (Mountain Lakes, Pa./Mountain Lakes) totaled a career-high 16 saves, 13 of which came in the second half, including nine in the fourth quarter as the No. 3-ranked Mustangs won their third-straight, 13-10 over St. Mary's (Md.) Tuesday at Caves Athletics Complex.
The win assured Stevenson (13-1, 5-1 CAC) of the second-seed, first round bye and a home game in the semifinals of the 2010 CAC Men's Lacrosse Championship which begins on Sunday.
Bolland earned his first career win in his fourth career appearance and first career start. He headlined a defensive effort that held the Seahawks to just 3-of-11 on extra-man opportunities, including 0-for-4 in the fourth quarter.
With the Mustangs leading 13-9 with 7:04 remaining in the fourth quarter, they were whistled for three simultaneous slashing penalties, giving St. Mary's an commanding 6-on-3 advantage for one minute.
However, due to the work of seniors Cory Baldwin (Baltimore/Calvert Hall) and Mike Gustowarow (Annapolis/DeMatha) and junior Ian Hart (Swarthmore, Pa./Ridley), Stevenson killed off the three-man advantage, holding the Seahawks to just three shots, one of which was saved by Bolland.
Offensively, junior Richie Ford (Baltimore/Towson) led the way with two goals and two assists while junior Neal Barthelme (Towson/Dulaney) added three goals. Over his last two games, Barthelme has totaled seven goals after posting 11 in his previous 12 contests.
Junior Jimmy Dailey (Westminster/Winters Mill) also added three points with two goals and one assist.
The game was tied at 4-4 at the end of the first quarter after the teams played a statistically even first 15 minutes.
Stevenson distanced itself from St. Mary's after outscoring the Seahawks 6-2 in the second quarter to hold a 10-6 halftime lead.
After the teams combined for 16 first half goals, the two totaled just seven in the second despite 11 combined extra-man opportunities. The Mustangs were 1-for-3 on the man-up while St. Mary's was just 2-for-6.
Dennis Rosson led the Seahawks (7-5, 4-2 CAC) with six points and five goals while Patrick Mull added four assists and Ryan Alexander had one goal and two assists. Stu Wheeler finished with nine saves.
Stevenson concludes its CAC schedule when it hosts York (Pa.) on Thursday beginning at 4:00 p.m.

Winning the West on the run
Page Tools
Al Swearengen (Ian McShane), centre, with a group of ne'er-do-wells
from the rumbustious days of Deadwood.
A coach rattles into town carrying a group of whores for yet another - and Deadwood's newest - bordello. The march of telegraph poles along the ravine occupied by the wild frontier town marks the outside world's imminent intrusion on Deadwood's primitive and chaotic existence.
Observing the latest challenges to his position and what passes for authority in this lawless place, Al Swearengen, Deadwood's father figure and blackhearted saloon proprietor, is feeling the effects of a swollen prostate and fading eyesight.
Modernity and mortality ensure that change is everywhere apparent as the cult western series returns for its second season. The re-creation of South Dakota's gritty 19th century gold-mining settlement - the real town is the resting place of Wild Bill Hickok and Calamity Jane, among others - is humming again following an award-winning first series.
It is as Al Swearengen, the deeply flawed character at the centre of Deadwood, that English actor Ian McShane won the 2005 Golden Globe award for best actor in a television series.
But it was Lovejoy, the 1980s series about a mystery-solving antique dealer, that won McShane a fleeting public recognition when he was hailed in the street during a visit to Melbourne last month. It was pleasing to be remembered, particularly for a series he developed himself, McShane says, but he leaves no doubt about where his preferences lie.
"You become highly recognised for doing that and it's sweet, but when you go into something like Deadwood, which is a much deeper experience - I am not saying it's better but it is more fulfilling, because after a while what you do with Lovejoy or any of those characters is play a character."
In Deadwood, McShane is all character. In the first series he was unveiled as a man of ever more profound evil. Yet after plumbing the depths of callousness, as the series closed there were glimmers of his humanity in flashbacks of his tortured childhood. McShane's Swearengen is a malevolent and compelling but occasionally charismatic presence.
"A lot of it has got to go down to Milch (David Milch, co-creator of NYPD Blue and creator and head writer of Deadwood)," McShane says. "From his early creations, like Sipowicz in NYPD Blue, David is drawn to flawed creatures, which we all are. Most people who watch TV or theatre are more fascinated by sacred monsters like Swearengen."
As a genre, the Western has had the last rites read over it several times, but Deadwood revives it with an extraordinary authenticity. The 1876 outlaw mining camp on land granted to the Ogallala Sioux Indians has been painstakingly recreated in gritty detail.
Swearengen is based on Deadwood's saloon owner, who, at the height of the town's madness, raked in up to $10,000 a day. The authenticity, it must be said, extends to the dialogue, which is confronting and knows no boundaries.
It succeeds too because of the richness of its characterisation. Viewers who missed series one have missed Keith Carradine's turn as a doomed, fatalistic Wild Bill Hickock, but there is great depth in relatively minor characters such as Robin Weigert's tragic and alcoholic Calamity Jane and Brad Dourif's Doc Cochran, the town's compassionate doctor still haunted by the horrors of the Civil War.
Deadwood benefits too from use of a broad range of American roots or roots-influenced music. The first series featured Mississippi John Hurt, Bukka White, Brownie McGhee and Sonny Terry, and Lyle Lovett. Series two opens with Bob Dylan and Lightnin' Hopkins among the music credits.
"I think what Milch is trying to achieve in this show is a revisionist western," McShane says. "He is really writing the story of American capitalism, of how in this extraordinary society there was no law, there was no society . . . They have to come together and start forming a society, otherwise they will all go under.
"I think it's the book Milch never wrote. It's his great American novel shown on television, which is his perfect format, and being with HBO (Home Box Office) he is given complete freedom. Like David Chase of The Sopranos, they are given freedom to write what they want.."
That freedom extends to allowing the series, and each episode, to evolve according to Milch's vision. The first season was a shock for McShane. The series was commissioned before the pilot was finished, but he was amazed to find when he returned six months later that there was still no script.
"This is Milch, his way of working. He has the whole arc, I think he has the five-year arc in his head, because he talks about things from the pilot that haven't come into the show yet. David works very much on the outline.
"He is there every morning - you drive into Deadwood, you have your coffee and then you start rehearsal for that day. It's very much a dynamic because he is there for every scene, and for when you rehearse, and then he will change it. He will go off and write and get the next scene." In one way, "he is revising from what you bring to it as an actor, and from what he sees".
It was also this evolutionary method that caused McShane to pass when asked if he was interested in directing an episode. It's tough enough working that method as an actor, he says.
McShane has been a working actor all his adult life - it is a career he fell into after a teacher steered him into a school play, and seeing something in him, guided him to the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art. He left RADA shortly before graduating to play a part in the film The Wild and the Willing.
His credits include Sexy Beast, The Battle of Britain, Whose Life Is It Anyway? and the role of Heathcliff in Wuthering Heights for the BBC.
He is now 62, and Deadwood and Al Swearengen are for him a place and a character he grew into in what he calls a "happy accident".
"Without a doubt it's the best gig I have ever done. You think you have done some great stuff and enjoyed it, but working in this way, at this particular time, under these circumstances and with a guy - it's not kissing arse to say Milch is a bit of a genius - is a great privilege."
Deadwood returns at 8.30pm on Wednesday on Showtime.

Nik Badminton On Digital Engagement And Mobile Tagging
PSFK talks with the Director of Digital Strategy at Tribal DDB Vancouver in anticipation of his presentation at the upcoming PSFK Future Of Mobile Marketing Salon in Austin.
For our upcoming PSFK SALON at SXSW this year, we've invited Nik Badminton to talk about the future of mobile tagging. Nik is currently the Director of Digital Strategy at Tribal DDB Vancouver.
We're excited that Nik will joining us at this year's salon in Austin. Here are a few questions we asked him in preparation for the event.
Are there any projects you've encountered at Tribal that have uncovered particularly interesting challenges?
Education about what mobile tags are and how to use them is a big challenge. We are integrating mobile tagging to link the majority of our digital and print tactics now, and the awareness is working in gaining uptake. Right now it is not enough to just provide the tag and it needs to be accompanied by and easy-to-understand url as well. We envisage this changing over time.
What other projects are currently inspiring your work?
The Canadian Tourism Commission's approach to traditional print and digital engagement is ground-breaking. Integrating user content alongside brand assets coupled with events enabled by mobile tagging integrated into creative has really started to pay dividends. There are some amazing projects out there that are inspiring our thinking:
- Integrated creative: http://www.setjapan.com/category/qrcode/?lang=en
- Retail (Puma): https://www.psfk.com/2011/02/digital-physical-retail-display-from-puma.html
- Jimmy Fallon: http://mashable.com/2011/02/18/jimmy-fallon-qr-code/
What emerging trend, idea, or technology are your excited to see develop in the future?
The idea of bar codes, mobile tags and visualisation (such as augmented reality) integrating is very compelling. As we browse product in stores and online we will be able to use mobile devices to see more about the product (demos, fact sheets, comparisons) and view any campaign activity/coupons that relate to them. The integration of this behaviour with loyalty solutions and location-based services will allow consumers to gain more value and strengthen the relationship with the brands they consume.
Also, QR codes (and similar) could be replaced by using whole display creative scanning to direct traffic to experiences online. Check out the use of Google Goggles and the campaign for Tron – http://www.mobilemarketer.com/cms/news/search/8154.html.
Where will mobile tagging be in five years?
Everywhere. We envision that physical locations including businesses, retail outlets and and even personal information and locations will integrate tagging on one sort or another. A key catalyst to this will be the integration of readers (and image/face recognition technologies), as standard, into mobile devices (tablets + cell phones). We will see mobile tagging-enabled campaigns being used as core parts of creative and also integrated with location-based services.

About MeHi.
I am a makeup artist / hair stylist residing in Prague, Czech Republic, but traveling and willing to travel across Europe (or globally). I am dedicated, perfectionist, professional. Never satisfied until I conclude that the work presented is the best I am capable of creating at the moment. I can create any look you may need to complete your project - from completely natural to wild extravagance; I love what I do and hope to show it in the work presented on these pages.
My native language is Czech, but I am fluent in English. You can also contact me in Slovak or Spanish. Failing that, I also know how to use Google Translator. :)
I do selectively work TFP as I think it's essential to developing as an artist, so... hit me with your idea. If I work TFP, I require one beauty shot of the makeup and/or hair of each look that we shoot, WITHOUT WATERMARK, in print resolution.
Looking forward to working with you. :)

Olivia Wilde feels "saddened and grossed out" by young women who undergo cosmetic surgery to improve their looks. The 29-year-old has urged girls to eat a healthy diet and indulge in exercise, instead of resorting to drastic measures to change their appearance.
"Don't cut your face. I am so saddened and grossed out by young women who look like creepy, old aliens because of their new Barbie noses and lips. Is that a smile or a grimace? Did you melt hot wax on your face, or is that your skin?. A better approach, take care of yourself now that you're old enough to know how. Drink water, sleep eight hours, and don't go within 400 feet of a tanning booth or I'll slap you hard," femalefirst.co.uk quoted Wilde as saying.
The actress also insists that she is looking forward to turning 30 in March 2014. "I'm hitting a major milestone 30, or as I like to call it, the 'cut the bulls**t and go be awesome' stage," said Wilde. "Now you get to live with that knowledge (you gained in your 20s) under your belt. Also, make it a nice belt. You're 30. Stop dressing like a hobo. And don't be bogged down by your past. Consider your baggage (bad boyfriends, job setbacks, body issues) lost by the airline of life, leaving you empty-handed at your new destination with only one choice, go shopping," said Wilde.
Other news that are making Hollywood..
Victoria Beckham says her family lives a normal life like other people. The 39-year-old is married to former soccer champion David Beckham and has four children Brooklyn, 14, Romeo, 10, Cruz, eight, and two-year-old daughter Harper. The family does not live a glamorous lifestyle all the time like others think.
"Honestly, once the children are in bed I'd rather work or shove on a face pack and pluck my eyebrows," Australia's Vogue magazine quoted Victoria as saying. "By the time Brooklyn's finally gone to bed, it's all I'm fit for. Really, we're much more normal than people think," she added.
Angelina Jolie says her daughter Vivienne was the only child not scared of her outfit in the upcoming movie "Maleficent". The 38-year-old, plays the role of a evil queen in the movie and Vivienne too has a small part in the movie as young Princess Aurora. However, unlike other children, Vivienne was comfortable around her mother when she was in her character, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
"These little kids would visit the set, and I would think, 'Oh, I am a Disney character,' so I would go over to them, and say, 'Hi there.' They would just scream. One little kid even said, 'Mommy, please make the mean witch stop talking to me,'. Vivienne was the only 4-year-old who didn't scream when she saw me," Angelina said.
Lady Gaga is angry after her much-awaited song "Applause" was briefly leaked online. The track was briefly available on the web over the weekend but was soon withdrawn. Gaga was upset. "Lord, in heaven why. You just couldn't wait. This is too much," Gaga posted on Twitter, reports dailystar.co.uk. "Wanna grab some shovels and f**k up some hackers," she added. The singer has been promoting the song by posting bits of its lyrics online every now and then.
Danny Cipriani's former lover Jasmine Waltz has advised Kelly Brook, who recently broke up with the footballer, to "walk away" from him. Brook recently ended her relationship with Cipriani after she caught him exchanging saucy messages with another woman. Cipriani had dated Waltz before he started Brook.
"Kelly, I warned you before that he would cheat on you, and I am so sorry to be proven right. Have some self-respect and show the world you are better than him. I am sure you loved him and always gave him the benefit of the doubt, but now it is time to do the best thing for you. This is your wake-up call. He can be a sweet-talker but don't fall for that bull," dailystar.co.uk quoted Waltz as saying.
Courteney Cox broke her wrist while holidaying in Mexico and had to cut short her trip. The 49-year-old was in Cancun with friends when she slipped and fell. The "Friends" star tried to break her fall, but her wrist got snapped. Doctors came to her hotel room and confirmed it was pretty bad, reports tmz.com.
The doctors have put a cast on the busted limb. But Courtney didn't wish to take any chances and booked a private jet to take her stateside. She wants to get treated by her own physicians. It's unclear if surgery will be necessary.
Simon Cowell was seen arriving in French Riviera in his luxury yacht but without any of his female friends. The 53-year-old, who is always surrounded by women on his holidays, was expected to go on vacation to the Mediterranean with ex-fiancee Mezhgan Hussainy and former girlfriends Sinitta and Jackie St Clair.
He was spotted getting a boat out to his chartered Slipstream yacht off the coast of the French Riviera Sunday with a more masculine group of friends around him than usual, reports dailymail.co.uk. However, none of the women appeared to be by his side when he was in his $73 million yacht, which will take him for his month-long cruise. Cowell's friends were reportedly shocked after the news about his affair with married socialite Lauren Silverman surfaced. She is expecting his first child.
The London Fashion Week, which is set to kickstart here in September, has reportedly teamed up with haircare brand Toni&Guy. It is the first time ever that the fashion extravaganza has lent its name to a product line as part of an official product endorsement deal, reports femalefirst.co.uk. The professional haircare range will feature the official LFW logo on all its packaging. The fashion event is organised by the British Fashion Council.

To assist PhD graduate students to achieve their career goals, the School of Graduate Studies in the Heath Sciences has a Policy that mandates all PhD graduate students to develop and use an Individual Development Plan. All graduate students will review their IDP with their research mentor and Program Director at least once per year during one or both of the twice-annual Student Progression Review Meetings.
The Individual Development Plan (IDP) is a useful tool designed to assist the graduate student with:
1) identifying his/her professional goals and objectives;
2) assessing the graduate student's skill set relative to his/her career goals;
3) developing a plan (training plan) to acquire the skills and competencies needed to achieve short- and long-term career objectives.
In addition to serving as a planning tool, an IDP also serves as a communication tool, allowing the graduate student to communicate research and career goals to mentors, including research advisors and graduate program directors.
The development, implementation, and revision of IDPs require a series of steps to be conducted by graduate students and their mentors. This is an interactive process and requires full participation of both students and mentors.
1) Student Self Assessment;
2) Student: Write and share IDP - Mentor: Review IP and adjust training plan;
3) Student: Implement plan and revise as needed - Mentor: establish regular progress review;
4) Student: Survey opportunities with mentor - Mentor: Discuss opportunities
SGSHS IDP Policy
The annual review of the IDP will take place during at least one of the twice-annual Graduate Student Research and Career Progress Review meetings between the graduate student, program director, and research mentor (the latter: for post-candidacy students). The date of this IDP review will be noted on the last page of the Individual Student Progress Report form. This form can be found on the "Forms" page of the SGSHS website and in the "Student Progression Plan."
Upon completion of the Student Progress meeting and the review of the IDP, a signature page at the end of the Individual Student Progress Report form is to be signed by all participants. The completed and signed Individual Student Progress Report Form for each student enrolled in the program is to be provided to SGSHS by June 1 each year.
There is broad agreement that core competencies provide an excellent way to evaluate career/professional development. Core competencies are primarily blends of skills and experiences that future employers and/or educational institutions will be seeking. Specifically, graduate training should aim to build competence in:
An excellent free online tool for developing an IDP is myIDP:
This tool is written specifically for scientists to help them understand their skills, values and interests and how those align with potential career choices.
The School of Graduate Studies in the Heath Sciences organized a seminar and workshop with Dr. Phil Clifford, co-developer of myIDP. Dr. Clifford's lecture is currently available for additional viewing at:
The School of Graduate Studies in the Heath Sciences will organize a workshop annually for all first year graduate students to educate them on the use of IDP and the myIDP website. This year's workshop will be April 28, 2015.

- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
Have you asked your friend what kind of food they were feeding him? Some dogs just don't like change. If it was table scraps, start slowly mixing in small portions of table scraps with dry dog food. Canned food may also work! If he was eating dog food, ask them what brand it was and hopefully he'll start eating it again. :)
If you just got him, he's probably scared and nervous. He doesn't know what's going on, so he's not quite comfortable making himself at home with you yet.

"I would run for my life, but not from my honor"
Film Synopsis:
Ip Man 2 takes up where its predecessor left off, with Ip Man escaping the Japanese occupation of his hometown and arriving in Hong Kong, where he opens a martial arts academy to teach his unique Wing Chun style. But Ip must first prove himself to the corrupt cabal of Hong Kong martial arts masters— which he does, in one of the most amazing fight sequences ever committed to film, showcasing a dazzling variety of martial arts styles.
My Take:
Donnie Yen reprises his iconic role as the real-life kung fu Grandmaster Ip Man, widely known as the man who brought Wing Chun to the world with the help of his star pupil, Bruce Lee. Master Ip, a new arrival in British-occupied Hong Kong, wants to open a martial arts academy to teach his unique Wing Chun style. A corrupt group of martial arts masters, led by Master Hung (Sammo Hung) refuses to allow him to teach in peace until he proves himself as a kung fu master. Ip's troubles continues when he is forced to enter a brutal King of the Ring boxing match against Twister, a Western-style boxer who insults the Chinese locals, in a East versus West knock-down, drag-out fight to the finish.
Ip Man 2 Legend of the Grandmaster continues where Ip Man left off and finds Master Ip is Hong Kong after the war. The story follows him as he opens his martial arts school, runs into conflict with the area's senior kung fu master, Master Hung, and his eventual acceptance after proving himself worthy to teach after a spectacular display of his Wing Chun skills before the master's council. Despite their contentious beginnings Master Ip and Master Hung come to develop a mutual respect. To this point in the film I found the story to be every bit as involving as Ip Man. The two primary action sets pieces, the one at the fish market and later at the master's council were superb and the development of the characters and their integration in the lightly dramatic elements of the narrative worked well. Thing began to get shaky when British boxer Taylor "Twister" Milos arrives in Hong Kong for an exhibition and insults Chinese Kung Fu which leads a clash of cultures that must be rectified. The story then descends into a Rocky IV style fight drama with Master Ip entering the ring against a seemingly indestructible foreign foe as an entire nation cheers him on in defense of their honor. You can figure out how it turns out. I felt that the clichéd third act took away from the earlier parts of the film which was disappointing. That isn't to suggest that I didn't enjoy watching Donnie Yen at work in the finale but the camp factor ran a little too high. I thought that in addition to Yen, who owns this character, Sammo Hung and Huang Xiao Ming were standouts among a solid ensemble cast. I think that as a companion to the first film Ip Man 2 (at least the first two acts) is very good thanks in part to another excellent portrayal by Donnie Yen in the lead role. Wilson Yip does a fine job in the director's chair and the action choreography (by Sammo Hung) features two incredibly well executed and thrilling fight sequences that by themselves make this film worth the price of admission.

Ip Man 2 Legend of the Grand Master comes to Blu-ray Disc from Well Go USA Home Entertainment featuring 1080p AVC encoded video that has an average bitrate of 34 Mbps and lossless DTS-HD 5.1 Master Audio sound that has an average bitrate of 2.7 Mbps.
This film has a stylized visual design that utilizes a muted chromatic scheme that works aesthetically well for the film's theme and setting. The color range is limited to shades of gray, black and sepia with splashes of crimson and pale secondary hues. Warm golden accents are used here and there to break up the film's monochromatic essence. Fleshtones hold up nicely and don't appear unnatural. Uneven light and shading are prevalent. Contrast is noticeably boosted which overemphasizes whites with minimal effects on detail and the reproduction of gray tones. Resolution is discerning as the video is cleanly rendered with appreciable refinement and delineation that enhances depth as it reveals fine detail in objects, clothing, and physical features. Blacks aren't inky but appear punchy when onscreen with mixed light/dark elements. There is a fine veneer of film grain that provides texture without emphasizing the low level digital noise that crops up from time to time. The end result is a satisfying high definition video presentation.
The available audio options on this release are English (dubbed), Mandarin, and Cantonese DTS-HD 5.1 Master Audio with their stereo counterparts. The default option is the Cantonese track which is I used during my evaluation. The lossless mix delivers the soundtrack's elements with aplomb. Dynamic range is extended which renders the film's action based sequences with definitive impact and energy. Dialogue is presented with clear intonation and average room penetration. The sounds of breaking objects, hand to hand combat, and Kenji Kawai's beautifully orchestrated music is reproduced with sparkling clarity. Imaging across the front soundstage is excellent as sounds are integrated with precision. This is an involving surround mix that integrates the entire system where appropriate. During the fight sequences the listening position is actively engaged by a mixture of spatial and localizable sound effects that place the listener in the heart of the action. Low frequency detail is clean, well articulated and authoritative as points of contact seem to resonate with palpable impact. This isn't a bombastic or overly aggressive soundtrack but it's blend of audible detail and room energizing dynamics make for a entertaining home theater experience.
* CIH users should note that the subtitles appear within the picture area.*
Bonus Features:
Disc 1: (Blu-ray)
- (HD) International, Theatrical, and Teaser trailers
- Making of documentary (1080i boxed in center of screen) – 17 minutes
Disc 2: Bonus features DVD:
- Behind the sets
- The community
- Fish market
- Chinese restaurant
- Big and small arena
- Shooting diary
- Deleted scenes
- Cast/crew interviews – 11 segments
Final Thoughts:
In Ip Man 2 Legend of the Grand Master Donnie Yen reprises his iconic role as the real-life kung fu Grandmaster Ip Man. It's a decent sequel that starts stronger than it finishes but makes for a good companion to the original film thanks to another strong performance by Yen, a solid supporting cast, and rousing martial arts choreography. As with Ip Man it is readily apparent that this film is a labor of love for the filmmakers and cast. This Collector's Edition debuts on Blu-ray Disc in a technically strong offering that features excellent audio/video quality and an above average set of bonus material that looks behind the scenes at the production. If you're a fan this Blu-ray release from Well Go USA is a must have for your collection. Enjoy!

His Wing Chun techniques are truly legendary and unparalled. Highly recommended! Also wanted to add that the prequel to this is now out as well and recommended! Go see it!
Glad to see you doing a review for this film! There are many very good foreign films that many people will never see, much less hear about. So it is nice to see some "love" given for one such as this.
It is on my queue but I'm waiting for my projector to come in the mail this week. I saw most of Donnie Yen's films and this is a good one based on what I've read and heard.
His two recent clunkers are 14 Blades and Legend of the Fist (weak stories).
Both Sammo and Donnie were phenomenal in the SPL finale, a must for Donnie Yen fan. I'm still amazed how some of these guys do not use stunt men, taking all kind of punishments and risks.
It is not a prequel. The movie is disappointing because it contradicts the Ip Man character that was played by Donnie Yen. I can't wait to compare
these to Tony Leung's version of Ip Man.
Ip Man (1) featured one of the most amazing fight scenes ever set to film. Does the sequel have anything that compares to his fight vs. the horde of Japanese soldiers in the first movie?
I really liked the fish market fight sequence...

Thanks for another fine review!
Thanks for the review Ralph. Even with the historical and "coreographical" liberties taken by Wilson Yip, these two movies are an excellent way for people to experience the no-frills, no-nonsense martial art called Wing Chun.
Didn't know there was a second till I saw this. Gonna have to check it out.

Also check out 'IP Man the legend Continues' - I know some are upset because it's not consistent (he speaks english if I recall) but still a great movie with some of the same actors in different roles.
I was disappointed in the quality of the first one (us version) you can almost see right thru the disc. I watched it on netflix as well then ordered the bluray movie is fantastic, its up there with kung fu hustle. Ordered the second one, if its as good as the first one im happy.
I think you're watching your blu-rays incorrectly. You are not supposed to look directly at the disc; rather, you are supposed to put them in a player and then watch the image on your tv.
Wow haven't heard about this one before, this will definitely be a must see when it's released.
huge fan of IPMan 1 and 2.. .this is great film making that seems be lost these days with the US releases.
Also check out 'IP Man the legend Continues' - I know some are upset because it's not consistent (he speaks english if I recall) but still a great movie with some of the same actors in different roles.
I enjoyed both greatly!
I had enjoyable time watching these two.
The only other film that came close was Ong Bak (part 1).

The Virginia News Letter
impact studies, Virginia horse industry
This article by Terrance Rephann, a regional economist at the Weldon Cooper Center for Public Service, reports the results of a comprehensive study that examined the economic impact of Virginia's horse industry. The spending associated with horse owners, commercial horse operations, out-of-state show and race participants, and horse event spectators constitutes the direct contribution to the state's economy. Linkages with other industries in Virginia's supply chain mean that this spending has further stimulative effects that result from the purchases of goods and services and payments to employees. The Virginia horse industry has increased in size and economic influence over the past few decades because of the continued growth in the Virginia horse population and associated horse spending, introduction of racing at Colonial Downs in 1997, and an expansion in the Virginia show and competition calendar fostered in part by public investments such as the Virginia Horse Center in Lexington which opened in 1987. The Virginia racing industry, which is the smallest of the three components, grew until 2007 but experienced a contraction in attendance and wagering after then because of competitive pressures and the effects of the recent recession on consumer spending. While the downturn may have damped horse spending, as economic growth resumes and consumer spending on recreation and leisure increases, the industry is likely to expand and benefit.

Psig (pound-force per square inch gauge) is a unit of pressure relative to the surrounding atmosphere. By contrast, psia measures pressure relative to a vacuum (such as that in space). At sea level, Earth's atmosphere actually exerts a pressure of 14.7 psi. Humans do not feel this pressure because internal pressure of liquid in their bodies matches the external pressure. If a pressure gauge is calibrated to read zero in space, then at sea level on Earth it would read 14.7 psi. Thus a reading of 30 psig on a tire gauge represents an absolute pressure of 44.7 psi.

'The Three Stooges' Being Revived by the Farrelly Brothers
The modern incarnation of comedy act "The Three Stooges" is indeed going to be picked up for big screen production. On Monday, November 3, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures announced that the studio have Bobby and Peter Farrelly, who spent five years trying to make the Stooges movie at Warner Bros., attached to the revived project as the directors.
Talking to Variety about the new "Stooges", Peter insisted that the movie won't be a biopic. "It's not a biopic. It takes place in present day, and they look, dress and sound exactly like the Stooges," he said. "When the economy started turning, we felt like the world could use a Stooges slapfest. Bobby and I haven't done a real physical comedy in a while, and it's the most exciting thing we could think of now, to have people go to the movie, see some great slapstick fun family humor."
Other than appointing the Farrelly brothers to helm the project, the studio have also set November 20, 2009 as the movie's U.S. release date. The schedule will put "Stooges" to be up against Robert Downey Jr.-starrer action film "Sherlock Holmes" and The Rock and Jessica Biel's animated film "Planet 51".

How does a guy get a steel EMT body?
I need one 3/4" steel type C EMT body - the threadless kind, not the kind that also works with rigid conduit. Any tips? I know where to get aluminum ones but I heard they make them in steel, and my EMT is steel, so I figured that's the right choice.
Local Supply house, or if you are lucky like we are with our Lowe's and Menard's hardware, they may carry.
"...and my EMT is steel, so I figured that's the right choice"
No, aluminum will work just fine, in most cases.
Greater impact resistance is one of the reasons to insist on steel (actually malleable iron). But if that is the case, why would you use set screw connections or even EMT to begin with ?
You need a 3/4 type C conduit body. You want the threadless setscrew type and "steel". Unless you give on one of the wants, you may not find it.
Or, buy a threaded malleable iron one, and use fittings to adapt to a threadless setscrew EMT connection.
Absolutely NO reason to go with a malleable condulet with EMT. Aluminum is perfectly fine.
OK, I gave up looking for steel anyway. Steel may have been thinner so the EMT would be closer to the wall and the wall straps would work better, and my EMT kind of has to be very near the wall because it's coming out of a difficult-to-enlarge hole, but I could probably make it work.
if you need conduit closer to wall,bend an off-set or use a conduit off-set fitting.
1 Attachment(s)
For a solution involving bending, I might have to bend it away from the wall only 1/4" - 1/2" so it still fits in the soffit that will be covering it. I can't adjust the soffit depth because I want the soffit to be the same depth as a feature in the corner of the wall, about 2 1/2" (see picture). And I wanted an access panel in the soffit as near the corner as possible. But I'll make it work somehow.
If the wiring is going to be covered by a soffit, why not use romex?
It's coax for TV and computer. It's in EMT to make fishing easier, and I'll cover the EMT with a soffit to make it look nicer.
Why do you need to put coax in EMT?
1 Attachment(s)
The coax is yellow in the picture below. I want it to be replaceable in the future and I want more cable to be able to be added. Without EMT, it's much harder get new cable through the soffit (red) and wall, unless a hole is made in the soffit. I want this user friendly for future tennants.
Putting in a condulet (90) will be next to impossible to pull any new cabling through! You would be best off putting a bend in the conduit forming a nice sweeping 90 instead of the condulet. If you don't have a conduit bender, you can buy the 90 degree bends pre-formed and just couple it on either side to your conduit.
I won't be using a 90 degree condulet. I'll be using a type C, so the holes are in line with each other. I already assembled most of the conduit with the sweeping bends you mentioned and I can actually push in more than one coax by hand, even one at a time, through a 90 degree bend, then a more shallow bend.
Lets get back at the beginning. What exactly are you trying to accomplish, and what will be the end result? Are you planning a home theater, or just a way to hide wiring from across one area to the next?
Instead of all of us playing twenty questions, put it all out on the table, and just explain exactly what you are trying to accomplish from start to finish.
You actually answered the only question I needed help with. I'm just a little concerned that the EMT body may not fit because the EMT may have to be too close to the wall. No biggie. The EMT body would just make fishing with fish tape a little easier in some cases. A gap between EMT sections would be fine because it would be covered by the soffit, and I'm building this so fish tape isn't even necessary.

I can appreciate that a lot has been happening lately but you really missed the boat by not covering the appearance of a national figure at McCracken County High School on the Friday evening before Fancy Farm.
Allen West reviewed much of what you regularly cover on the editorial page with a depth of insight and knowledge that held the undivided attention of the hundreds of attendees including a significant number of local and regional notables. He gave a positive, uplifting and wide-ranging presentation of both national and global topics including the epidemic of fatherless households in America. He responded to questions from the audience including a good discussion with City Commissioner Richard Abraham (who also sang the national anthem at the start).
I noticed that the local law enforcement officers assisting us with security were particularly responsive and I was impressed by the interaction. We appreciate the support of the sheriff's department. Everybody had the chance to meet Allen West, and have their photograph taken with him. His humility was returned with enthusiasm by the audience.
Specific provisions were made for the media. It is sad but not surprising that for the most part local media didn't consider it worthy of their time. On the other hand, the national organization Gil Fulbright; Honest Politician showed up on their way to Fancy Farm although I don't think it was what they expected. (Look it up online - honestgil.com).

The sister of Shafilea Ahmed – who was killed by her parents because they objected to her westernised lifestyle – was spared prison on Friday when she was given a 12-month suspended sentence for organising a robbery at her parents' house.
Alesha Ahmed's arrest ultimately led to the conviction this year of her parents, Iftikhar and Farzana, for murdering their eldest daughter.
While being interviewed about the robbery, Alesha, 24, told detectives that she and her siblings witnessed Shafilea's murder seven years earlier.
Shafilea, 17, vanished in August 2003 and her remains were discovered in Cumbria in February 2004 but it was Alesha's statement to police that provided enough evidence to charge the parents, leading to their convictions this year.
The couple initially said Shafilea had run away from home and claimed they had nothing to do with her disappearance. But her mother, 49-year-old Farzana, later changed her story and in effect pointed the finger at her husband, Iftikhar, saying he was involved in a single, violent assault on their daughter on the night she went missing.
Alesha had previously pleaded guilty to robbery after helping to organise the crime at her parents' home in Warrington, Lancashire, in August 2010.
Sentencing the 24-year-old, who is in a witness protection scheme, Mr Justice Irwin said at Southwark crown court, south London: "In my view, this is a case for mercy. I bear in mind all of the extraordinary circumstances I have outlined, in particular the truly appalling nature of what you had to witness, the impact this has had on you, and what you went through to be a witness.
"I bear in mind that, despite your undoubted intelligence and despite the help you may be given, your future life will be overshadowed by all that has happened, and it may be a long time before you achieve peace of mind and anything like normality."
He told Ahmed: "Yours is an extraordinary and terrifying story."
He said robbery in the home was a very serious crime and she would have realised it would be a terrying experience and said the normal sentence for an offence of this kind would be a significant jail sentence, even for someone of good character who pleaded guilty.
But he said that although Ahmed's role in the robbery was "crucial", there was a "degree of unreality" about how she behaved.
He said she had been in witness protection for more than two years, adding: "This can properly be compared to house arrest, and I accept it had an especially intense effect on you, since you were psychologically vulnerable, you were in a state of conflict with your family, isolated and away from friends and any ordinary support."
He said Ahmed was not trying to bargain for a lower sentence in giving evidence and had asked to be sentenced before her parents' trial.
Handing her a 12-month prison term, suspended for two years, the judge said she would be supervised by the probation service and will also have to undergo continuing mental health treatment, adding: "I am confident you will not re-offend."

NORTON, MA- The Wheaton College men's lacrosse team pulled out to a 10-goal lead midway through the third quarter before fending off Babson College, 15-9 on Saturday during Pilgrim League action in Mirrione Stadium.
The Lyons, who were playing their only game between April 4 and 16, improved to 4-3 overall and 2-0 in conference play, while the Beavers slipped to 5-5 and 1-1.
Sophomore Billy McNamara (Mansfield, MA/Northfield Mount Hermon School) paced Wheaton with four goals and a pair of assists, while junior Chris Landers (Manchester, MA/Proctor Academy) tallied four goals and a helper after entering the game needing six points to reach the 100-point plateau for his career. Classmate Ben Cederberg (Duxbury, MA/Duxbury) added a goal and four assists to join Landers with five points.
Senior Warren Garceau (Guilford, CT/Canterbury School) played an integral role in Wheaton going 23-for-27 on face-offs, as the draw man went 21-for-25 while picking up 10 ground balls. He added two goals and an assist, as did classmate Drew Schaffer (New Haven, CT/Loomis Chaffee School), while junior Bobby Barry (Duxbury, MA/Duxbury) scored twice. Senior Schuyler Horn (New Hartford, CT/Kingswood-Oxford School) made six saves.
Seven different Beavers scored on the day, as freshman Alex Patinkin (Providence, RI/Providence Country Day School) netted a pair to go along with an assist, and junior Andrew Packer (Hudson, OH/Western Reserve Academy) tallied a pair. Senior Mike Saucier (Nashua, NH/Bishop Guertin) collected 14 stops.
Landers and Schaffer tallied 2:23 apart during the first period to give Wheaton a 2-0 edge before Babson got on the board at 4:39, but the Lyons used a 3-0 run to nab a 5-1 advantage by 11:34 of the second quarter, with Barry scoring twice in the stretch.
A man-up goal by the Beavers brought them to within 5-2 at the 7:24 mark, but the hosts responded with a 7-0 run to pull out to a 12-2 lead by 8:39 of the third. McNamara scored four goals during that time, while Cederberg provided a tally and all four of his assists.
Three straight Babson goals, including two with a man up, brought the visitors within 12-5, but Garceau and Landers scored off of McNamara helpers 2:26 apart early in the fourth to produce a nine-goal margin with 12:20 left. The Beavers netted four of the final five goals.
Wheaton breaks for a week before traveling to Springfield College next Saturday for a 12:00 p.m. contest. The squads have met in the past two Pilgrim League Tournament title games, with the Pride winning both, including by a 12-7 final last spring.

|Official Title:
|Effect of Reconstitute Multiple Grain on Glucose and Lipid Metabolism in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes
Further study details as provided by National Cheng-Kung University Hospital:
Primary Outcome Measures:

Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Changes in body weight
- Acceptabiliy and tolerability
|Estimated Enrollment:
|Study Start Date:
|April 2005
|Estimated Study Completion Date:
|February 2007
Resistance of insulin-mediated glucose transport is a fundamental early defect in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). It has been found that high fiber concentration in meal is frequently associated with low GI. In many single-blind cross-over study, short term consumption of high fiber meal has been shown to enhance postprandial insulin sensitivity in healthy subjects. We presume that increasing daily consumption of fiber would improve the insulin resistance and therefor glycemic parameters patients with DM. Patients with type 2 diabetes with stable dose of hypoglycemic medication control will be recruited, two types of meals will be given, type A is a general Asian rice-meal and type B consists of the same rice with multiple-grain-fiber added. Both type of meals will be consumed for 3 months by each patients.
