  1. That one struck me too. I have seen many of these costumes before and they all work. But the Sexy Sherlock was new and interesting.
  2. http://rutube.ru/tracks/3254281.html?answer=1&page=indexr&v=7b1edf678792c240369f83dccaf6644f
  3. Multi-part http://www.comedycentral.com/press/press_releases/2010/11110-south-park-1412.jhtml
  4. "The most scientific such stab at judging the Stewart crowd appears to have been carried out by CBS News, which hired Digital Design at AirPhotosLive.com to do the work. They came up with a figure of 215,000. Digital Design uses cameras on tethered balloons to take high-resolution photos of a crowd. Then they enlarge the photos and begin counting. They try to figure out the density of sample crowd areas. Then they extrapolate from there based on how far the crowd spread. You can read about how one of their estimators goes about the work here" Sounds like a fairly reasonable method to me.
  5. They are over 14 and can be tried as adults. http://www.mapleleafweb.com/features/youth-justice-canada-history-debates None of this sounded right, so I did a quick Google search. Why don't people at least do a minimal scan before spouting off? Also, why are you people making me defend Canada?
  6. I saw that he dropped his last name and now just goes by Yusuf. Great convictions he has, huh?
  7. JLG (the manufacturer that I see the most) also cites 28 mph in their safety manual http://csapps.jlg.com/OnlineManuals/Manuals/JLG/JLG%20Scissor%20Lifts/E2%20Scissors/Operation_3120736_11-21-03_ANSI_English.pdf
  8. Useful reading http://www.miamiherald.com/2009/02/11/v-fullstory/427603/dave-barry-a-journey-into-my-colon.html
  9. I would bet some construction association has guidelines for this equipment that is well below 60mph/gusts and I doubt this kid was ever given proper safety training. Unless you can show me records on the training or the kid bypassing some checklist, ND is largely responsible.
  10. Also when Kyle opened the bathroom door and Sheila Brofloski was standing there all done up as a Jersey Girl killed me.
  11. Same here. Other than Julia Louis Dreyfus's appearance, I didn't care for it neither.
  12. That doesn't "feel" right. I don't know if there are enough data points to make a statisitcally significant argument, but I would bet large revenue teams would dominate all major sports if salary caps weren't implemented as the players unions won earlier access to free agency.
  13. Makes you wonder what he did in the first place to be forced into the rascal wheelchair
  14. I thought the idea of Vagisal sponsoring a car in NASCAR was pretty funny. As were the whole "she's my inspiration, my flame" and "it's safe for everyday use, EVERY DAY USE!" bits.
  15. A half-dozen matches were close. The rest were fairly decisive. The close matches were: a. Ses1: Cink/Kuchar v. McDowell/McIlroy - halved - well-played even match b. Ses2: Fowler/Furyk v Kaymer/Westwood - halved - see the Fowler situation above c. Ses3: Overton/Watson v. Hanson/Jimenez - 1dn - Europe squeaked out the win deservedly d. Ses3: Cink/Kuchar v E&F Molinari - halved - we got lucky when FM missed a 2' on #8, e. Ses4: Cink v McIlroy - halved - see Cink cituation above f. Ses4: Fowler v E. Molinari - halved - Fowler fights back to halve the match but EM didn't really do anything terrible to blow it. So let's say d. cancels e. It still comes down to the Fowler wrong-ball situation. That blows. Can someone explain how the "loss-of-hole" was invoked so quickly yet that person couldn't have said something prior?
  16. Yeah we really screwed the pooch in "session 3". But because it came down to a half-point, here are a couple things to think about: - who held out on Fowler when he was playing the wrong ball? Someone (a rules official?) immediately made the call after Fowler hit the wrong ball. So why didn't they speak up sooner? The commentator said Fowler dropped the ball twice then placed it on the cart path. Fowler should've known better but he is only 21 and this might've been the first alternate shot match he played in. And the caddie definitely should've known better. But still, who held out? - Cink played solidly in fighting back from 2 down after 2 and halving a match with young gun and mutch higher ranked Rory McIlroy. Now only if he didn't three-putt #15 from like 15' or miss the 2'-3' on #17. That would've been enough for the half-point
  17. "Spaceship Mind" was another favorite
  18. Yeah I thought the tide was turning there for awhile and we might salvage 2-3 points. 1/2 out of six is a debacle. Westwood was a stud today.
  19. How about as that wacky MTV cabbie? (oh - I guess Hops Guy beat me to it.)
  20. So far DJ and Lefty have been terrible. Monty pairs up the two worst Euros from "session 1" as a minimize the collateral damage pairing / sacrificial lambs and they still hand DJ and Lefty their arses. So much for Pavin's belief those two would be stalwarts. I am - it's my second favorite international sports competition behind Olympic Hockey.
  21. They can sell it in syndication but not on DVD?
