How Long Do Snowmobile Engines Last? [2-Stroke and 4-Stroke]
Written by ppguide in Maintenance,Snowmobile
The average snowmobile engine lasts anywhere from 5,000-20,000+ miles. The total number of miles depends on a variety of factors like the type of engine, how it's used, and maintained. A properly used and well maintained 4-stroke snowmobile engine can sometimes reach 20,000+ miles. In contrast, 2-stoke snowmobile engines typically need a smaller "top end" rebuild after around 5,000 miles. But abused and neglected snowmobile engines will likely wear out much sooner!
If you are considering buying a used sled, or just want to know when your snowmobile's engine might need to be rebuilt, this post is for you.

How Long Do Snowmobile Engines Last?
How long does a snowmobile engine lasts mainly depends on these factors:
Type of engine (2-stroke vs. 4-stroke, turbocharged or not)
Riding conditions
How it's used
Since all of these are important factors, let's take a close look at each.
Engine Type and Performance
When it comes to engines, the rule of thumb is: higher performance means shorter life.
Therefore, a turbocharged snowmobile engine won't last as long as their non-turbocharged (naturally aspirated) brothers.
Because of this, the most durable snowmobiles are the youth sleds. Their small air-cooled engines are significantly less powerful compared to bigger models. Moreover, in many cases, their performance is artificially limited for safety purposes.
Full-sized snowmobiles are generally powered with one of the following types of engines:
Fan-cooled 2-stroke engine
Liquid-cooled 2-stroke engine
4-stroke naturally aspirated engine (non-turbocharged)
4-stroke turbocharged engine
It's safe to say that naturally aspirated 4-stroke snowmobile engines last the longest, and you can expect a shorter lifespan on a turbocharged engine. The less durable snowmobile engines are arguably the 2-stroke power sources. Regarding cooling systems, the liquid-cooled powerplants are usually more durable compared to the fan-cooled.
We also have to mention that there are also electric snowmobiles that just recently came on the market. Manufacturers claim these snowmobiles need "zero maintenance," at least for a certain period.
How it's Used and Riding Conditions
The main factor that affects the lifetime of a snowmobile's engine is arguably how it is being used.
You can see many owners abusing their sleds on every ride, wanting to be the fastest at all times. Typically, they are the ones who have to rebuild their engines much more often or have to buy a new snowmobile every year or two. That's why you can find a lot of sleds on the market with only 2,000-3,000 miles on them, that are actually junk.
This is the number one reason why it's risky to purchase a used sled, you never know how it was used! However, the exterior condition of the sled is always a good clue to how it was treated and maintained.
If you already have a sled and want to use it for a long time, it's always best to avoid abusing the engine.
Okay, sledding is a motorsport, so some adrenaline rushes is always part of the fun! But your snowmobile's engine will last much longer if you don't regularly hold the throttle wide open (or close to it) for long periods of time.
It's also recommended that you warm the engine up properly before every ride.
It also makes a big difference where you regularly ride. Also, riding in deep snow and in the mountains requires much more engine power, which results in more wear and tear. In contrast, flat land rides put much less stress on the engine.
Beyond the terrain, the ambient temperature, altitude, humidity, and snow condition all affect the wear on the engine.
It's also good to know that aftermarket performance parts always offer more fun, but they also lead to a shorter engine life. This is the reason why racing snowmobiles require more service than other types of sleds.
If you are shopping around for a used sled, you may want to steer clear of the heavily modified ones. In many cases, these have been used harder than stock sleds.
In summary, the harder a snowmobile is ridden, the faster its engine wears out.
Another very important factor is the maintenance. Simply put, besides the abuse, overlooked maintenance is the other leading reason why so many snowmobile engines don't last as long as they should.
Using the wrong fuel or oil, overlooked oil changes on 4-stroke engines, missed carb cleanings, and improper summerizing after the season occur more often than you might think.
And if the owner doesn't pay attention to maintenance and properly take care of his sled, the engine can be damaged or destroyed in a couple of seconds.
As an example, a clogged carburetor can easily leave a 2-stroke engine without lubrication, which can immediately lead to major engine damage.
That's why proper engine maintenance is always so important on every snowmobile.
Therefore, if you are considering purchasing a used sled, best practice is to ask for all of the maintenance records.
What is Considered High Mileage for a Snowmobile?
In general, 10,000 miles and up are considered high mileage on a snowmobile. From 5,000 up to 10,000 miles means average usage, whereas 5,000 and below is considered low mileage on a snowmobile.
Most American snowmobile owners put around 1,200-1,500 miles on their sleds every season. Based on that, the average mileage of a snowmobile depends on its age:
Average Annual Miles on a Snowmobile
Years Average Miles on the Snowmobile
7 8400-10500
9 10800-13500
10 12000-15000
Please note that these are just approximate numbers, as you can find used sleds with more, or even far fewer miles, on the market.
But as we've discussed, although a snowmobile's mileage can indicate the engine's condition, this is not the only factor at play. A snowmobile can run 10,000+ miles with a stock engine without any issues, but at the same time, there is always a chance of blowing the engine after 10 miles.
That's why you have to inspect the engine itself instead of only relying on the odometer.
Are you wondering when you should rebuild a snowmobile engine and how you can check its condition?
Then keep reading!
When Should You Rebuild a Snowmobile Engine?
First things first, we have to specify what a "complete snowmobile engine rebuild" means:
Rebuilding a snowmobile engine usually refers to a complete restoration. This means all the parts with some wear have to be replaced with a new part. These usually include the pistons, rings, bearings, gaskets, rubber parts, and valves. In the worst cases, the crankshaft has to be replaced as well. Finally, the rebuilt engine should look "like new."
It's good to know that a complete rebuild is a very costly service, especially if it's done by a dealership. Thus, it's usually only done if the engine is blown, or completely worn out.
This is why it's important to distinguish a blown engine from one that only needs its top end rebuilt.
A blown engine always means major damage, which is independent of the mileage.
The leading reasons for blowing snowmobile engines are:
lack of lubrication
clogged carburetors
wrong gas
over-revving
snow ingestion
other malfunctions.
If it happens, the engine usually stops immediately and cannot be restarted. In other cases, it has some malfunctions that causes it to perform poorly. A blown engine needs to be completely rebuilt or even replaced in some cases.
Another common issue is the engine acquires some wear and tear over time. This means the engine is usually still running, but you can notice one or more of these issues:
Lower top end
Higher fuel and oil consumption
Other engine malfunctions
Low compression in cylinders
What is a top end rebuild on a snowmobile?
It's a typical symptom that snowmobiles continuously lose their top end over time, as their engine gets worn out. If you notice this, the best practice is to check the compression in the cylinders. If it's low, some engine upgrades may be required, but it usually doesn't mean a complete rebuild. Since it means replacing parts at the "top" of the engine, this service known as a "top end refresh" or "top end rebuild."
What are these parts?
In many cases, this only means a new set of piston rings and a cleaning (after around 3,000-5,000 miles).
In case of more wear, new pistons with rings may be required (after around 5,000-7,000 miles).
A complete top end rebuild means honing the cylinders (if required), replacing the pistons, rings, gaskets, and the reed valves.
If a snowmobile's engine is significantly worn, it usually needs a bottom end refresh as well.
Simply put, this is a full engine rebuild and beyond the above-mentioned parts, you have to replace the bearings and maybe the crankshaft as well. As a rule of thumb, many owners do a bottom end refresh at every second top end refresh.
Keep in mind that these services should only be done on 2-stroke snowmobile engines. But the good news is that it's much easier to work on a 2-stroke sled. That's why many owners manage these engine rebuilds themselves.
Compared to the 2-strokes, rebuilding a 4-stroke snowmobile engine is an enormous task and only very few people can do it at home.
How Much Compression Should a Snowmobile Have?
The best way to determine the condition of a snowmobile engine is by checking the compression in the cylinders.
How much compression should a snowmobile engine have? An average snowmobile should have about 115-125 psi of compression on all cylinders. 110 psi is usually a sign of some wear, and at just 100 psi you can expect poor performance. At around 90 psi, you probably won't be able to start the engine. Keep in mind that these are just approximate numbers, for exact specification please check the sled's manual.
You should rebuild a snowmobile engine if it's blown or it's worn out. If it has starting issues, lower top end, and low compression in the cylinders, these are all clues that your snowmobile's engine needs to be rebuilt. A blown engine happens from lack of lubrication, overheating, clogged carbs, or other malfunctions. If the engine needs to be rebuilt due to wear and tear, a top end or even a bottom end rebuild is needed.
Are you wondering when it would be best to rebuild the top end in your sled? The bad news is there is no exact answer to this question, but let's consider some different viewpoints!
When Should You Rebuild Your Snowmobile's Top End?
You should rebuild your snowmobile's top end if it measures low compression in the engine. It's also important for the compression to be about the same in every cylinder. If it's different by 10-15 psi or even greater, again it's a clue that your top end needs to be rebuilt.
Some owners rebuild their sled's top end periodically, even if they haven't had any engine issues and the compression is still good. They hope to avoid major engine damage by regularly refreshing their top end.
Their philosophy is: prevention is better than the cure!
On the other hand, many owners say that they won't touch their engine as long as it's working well.
Their philosophy is: why fix something that works well?
Based on real-world experiences, there are pros and cons on each side.
But as a rule of thumb, you can't go wrong with occasionally refreshing a 2-stroke engine. This is more important if you ride your sled hard or in the mountains. An engine refresh will be necessary sooner or later, and it's certainly more beneficial to have this service done during the off-season.
It always a hassle if your engine loses its performance or even blows in the middle of winter. It can shorten your season by weeks!
How Often Should You Rebuild a 2-Stroke Snowmobile?
2-stroke snowmobiles need to be rebuilt more often than 4-strokes. As a rule of thumb, the majority of 2-stroke snowmobiles need a "top end" engine rebuild before reaching 5,000 miles. This usually means replacing the rings, or the pistons with rings and gaskets. There are stories about 2-stroke sleds with 10,000+ miles, still being powered with their original engine. But keep in mind that this would be very rare.
Best practice is to be prepared to refresh a 2-stroke engine after 4,000-5,000 miles, especially if you ride your sled hard.
How Long Does a 4-stroke Snowmobile Engines Last?
If you maintain and use it properly, a 4-stroke snowmobile engine can last 20,000 miles, or even more. However, this strongly depends on whether it is boosted with a turbocharger or not, and how you use and maintain it. 4-stroke snowmobile engines usually last much longer compared to 2-strokes, but rebuilding them is much more expensive and difficult.
How Much Does it Cost to Rebuild a Snowmobile Engine?
The cost of snowmobile engine rebuilds can range from $50 up to as high as thousands of dollars. The final cost varies widely depending on the engine type, the required parts, and labor. Some examples for snowmobile engine rebuild costs (USD) are as follows:
2-stroke: Replacing the rings and cleaning the engine at home: $50
2-stroke: Replacing the pistons, rings, and gaskets at home: around $150-$500
Complete engine rebuilds: $1,000-$3,000+
Unfortunately, it's impossible to give an exact figure of how much a snowmobile engine rebuild will cost. Getting a complete engine rebuild done in a service shop can cost several times more than a quick "top end" refresh in your garage.
As a rule of thumb, it makes sense to rebuild 2-stroke engines especially if you can do it yourself. In contrast, 4-stroke engines are nearly impossible to rebuild at home. Only a very few owners can do it properly, which is why 4-stroke snowmobiles engines are usually rebuilt in service shops or at dealers. And you can assume that the labor costs of these services are quite high.
Thus, in many cases, rebuilding an aged snowmobile engine is not cost-effective. This is mainly for 4-stroke power sources. Instead, replacing the engine or even the whole sled makes more sense.
Another drawback of rebuilding an old engine is that sometimes it's not easy to find the right parts, especially for older sleds. This is one of the main reasons why so many owners sell their running snowmobile's parts instead of selling the whole sled.
But again, if you are considering rebuilding your engine, don't trust the odometer. If you want to know the real condition of the engine, check the compression in the cylinders.
As a rule of thumb, 10,000 miles and above is considered to be high mileage on a snowmobile.
Snowmobile engines last around 5,000-20,000+ miles, or even more depending on many factors like its type, how it's used and maintenance.
2-stroke snowmobile engines usually need a "top end refresh" after around 5,000 miles. This usually means only replacing the rings, or the pistons with rings and gaskets. This service is often called "top end rebuild" as well.
Rebuilding a 2-stroke snowmobile engine can even be done at home if you have mechanical skills and the required tools. But if you are new to engines, it's not recommended that you start with this project.
Unlike 2-strokes, 4-stroke sled engines last longer, up to 20,000 miles or more. Their drawback is that they are very difficult and costly to rebuild.
The costs of a snowmobile engine rebuild can range from $50 up to $3,000+, as it depends on several factors, such as:
The type of the engine (2-stroke vs. 4-stroke)
Which parts need to be replaced
You can replace a set of rings and clean the engine in your garage, which may cost you as little as $50. But if you want to rebuild a 4-stroke engine, be prepared to pay thousands of dollars. That's why rebuilding a 4-stroke snowmobile engine is not worth it in most cases.
As a final word, don't forget that the lifetime of a snowmobile engine strongly depends on the maintenance and how it's used.
Keep in mind these factors whether you already own a sled, or are just considering buying one!

So you got a traffic ticket it…now what do you do?
It's D. None of the above. The correct answer is: TALK TO A LAWYER.
Why not choose A, B or C?
A. It's not just the fine that you need to worry about. If you plead guilty, you'll be dealing with the fine plus a state surcharge, possible points on your license and probably an insurance increase. Some traffic tickets are even misdemeanors and carry potential jail time!
B. Most traffic tickets carry no statute of limitations. If you ignore the ticket, you risk having your license suspended by the court for failing to appear. You may not even know that you've been suspended. If you get caught driving with a suspended license you can be charged with a misdemeanor, arraigned at a local court, bail can be set and your car can be towed away. Now you're looking at a lot of fines and penalties that could have been avoided.
C. There's a lot you won't know about the Court that you are walking into. For instance, in Essex County there are several towns that are "Northway" towns, meaning that I-87 (the Northway) runs through them. Those courts see a large volume of speeders and some have taken a hardline stance on high speeds (over 80mph). The major Northway towns are Schroon, North Hudson, Elizabethtown, Lewis and Chesterfield. As a former Prosecutor in each of these towns, I have a good understanding of what each court is willing to accept as a reduction. If you handle your own ticket, you'll never be sure if you got the best possible result.
No, you can't afford NOT to hire a lawyer.
First, if you hire an attorney, you'll probably never have to go to Court, saving you time and money. Plus, the bigger the reduction you get, the less you'll wind up paying. A serious speeding ticket (whether because you were going really fast or caught speeding in a work/school zone) can run upwards of $700. In most cases, you'll save a lot more by getting a lawyer than by handling the ticket yourself.
Second, you want to avoid points on your license. The more points you acquire, the higher your insurance premium. If you accumulate 6 points within any 18 month period, additional monetary penalties kick in, and if you accumulate 11 points within 18 months, your license will be revoked.
Finally, with a bad driving record, you may be excluded from jobs you want to apply for or lose the one you have. Whether it's a construction job, a job in sales that requires travel, law enforcement, an EMT or a home health aide (just to name a few) they'll be looking at your driving record and they may decide you're just too risky to hire.
But the officer told me that he gave me a reduction when he wrote the ticket, should I just plead guilty to it?
Maybe…but maybe not. It all depends on how big a reduction it was and how clean your current driving record is. You might be able to do even better!
The bottom line: Whether or not to fight that traffic ticket is ALWAYS worth talking about.
*Some counties impose additional conditions.

RAY COLLINS: A light for the nations
The First Reading of the Sunday Masses of the Easter Season have been taken from the Acts of the Apostles and provide us with many insights into the life of the early Christian Church following Jesus' Resurrection and Ascension and the descent of the Holy Spirit on the disciples.
Ray Collins PUBLISHED May 02, 2016 Comments
The readings reflect the challenges the disciples faced in the Church's earliest days, as they were challenged by the High Priests and at times quarrelled amongst themselves in relation to which aspects of the Jewish tradition would be maintained in this post resurrection community.
They also relate the work of St Peter as the early leader of the Church and the way he was sought out, particularly by the sick and infirmed.
The readings also highlight the work of St Paul and St Barnabas as they travel through modern day Syria and Turkey engaging in conversions and meeting with the early Christian communities.
To this day, pilgrimages with the theme of following "In the Footsteps of St Paul" are regularly undertaken from Jerusalem to Greece, contemplating the work of the disciples as they spread the message of Jesus to the known world of that time.
In Acts 13: 47 St Paul proclaims to the people of Antioch:
For this is what the Lord commanded us to do when he said:
"I have made you a light for the nations, so that my salvation may reach to the ends of the earth."
In many ways, Catholic schools are called to continue this mission of the disciples to make the Good News known to all who seek a Catholic education. We do follow in the footsteps not only of Saints Peter and Paul and the early disciples but also in the footsteps of those who have heeded their words and followed them. In the case of our diocese, the Clergy and Religious Orders who established the Catholic school system we have today.
This week we take a significant step along the path of continuing that mission when Bishop Bill announces the name of the new Catholic High School to be built in the suburb of Chisholm, next door to St Aloysius Catholic Primary School. and unveils a plaque on the foundation stone of the school.
There are schools in our diocese named after St Peter and St Paul and the respective schools often reflect on the mission of these great saints in proclaiming their own purpose.
Bishop Bill holds a strong belief that the name of a school should be reflective of its purpose and that it provide inspiration and motivation to its staff and students in fulfilling its mission.
On Tuesday, the diocese will take a very positive step in proclaiming the first Catholic Secondary School to be built in the diocese in over 30 years and in naming it, will give emphasis to the important role that Catholic education plays in being "a light for the nations".

The annual City of Sevierville Arbor Day and Tree City Celebrations are scheduled for Thursday, April 18, 2019. The event will begin at 11:30 a.m. at the new Sevierville Fire Headquarters, 1162 Dolly Parton Parkway.
This will be the 35th consecutive year that Sevierville has been recognized as a Tree City USA. The ceremony will include speakers and presentations from the Sevierville Intermediate School BETA Club students, Tennessee Division of Forestry, and Sevierville Alderman Devin Koester. There will be a reading of the names of individuals with a tree memorial or honorary tree in the past year. A reception will follow at Fire Headquarters. Students from the Sevierville Intermediate School will help with speaker introductions.
The Sevierville Fire Department Firewise program will be presented by local students, and the Sevier County Electric System will receive a Tree Line USA Award.
The City of Sevierville Trees/Trails and Beautification Board continues to make efforts to improve urban tree care and benefits to the citizens of Sevierville. For additional information on the board and the Memorial Tree Program, please visit www.seviervilleparksandrec.com.
The Tree City USA program is a national program administered by the Arbor Day Foundation that provides the framework for community forestry management for cities and towns across America. Communities achieve Tree City USA status by meeting four core standards of sound urban forestry management: maintaining a tree board or department, having a community tree ordinance, spending at least $2 per capita on urban forestry and celebrating Arbor Day. Participating communities have demonstrated a commitment to caring for and managing their public trees. Together the more than 3,400 Tree City USA communities serve as home to more than 135 million Americans. For additional information on the Tree City USA program or the Arbor Day Foundation, visit www.arborday.org.


OTTAWA (August 30, 2016). A report  released today highlights a patchwork of 'cosmetic' pesticides laws across Canada. Roughly a third of Canadians are well protected, and a third not protected at all from this non-essential use of pesticides. The Canadian Association of Physicians for the Environment (CAPE) gives the provinces of Ontario and Nova Scotia top marks for limiting pesticides to least-toxic products for urban landscapes; Quebec's Pesticide Code protects children both indoors and outdoors, but only addresses lawns and not gardens; and west of Manitoba no province requires least-toxic options for landscaping.
Eliminating non-essential pesticides is an easy step towards healthier environments for children, as chemicals used to control pests (weeds, insects, etc.), can have non-target effects. "Early life exposures to pesticides can change a child's life-time trajectory, affecting development and increasing probability of chronic disease," cautions Dr. Curtis Lavoie, emergency physician at the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario.
"Least-toxic approaches should be the norm where families live, work and play," explained Dr. Meg Sears, Chair of Prevent Cancer Now. While some provinces 'black list' a few chemicals, Ontario, Nova Scotia and Manitoba have 'white lists' of permitted products. "Listing best practices gives clearer direction, and avoids the situation of new problematic products being permitted simply because they are not on a banned 'black list'," Sears concludes.
"Organically maintained, beautiful green spaces can be more resilient and sustainable, and very affordable," says Mark MacKenzie, past-president of the Organic Landscape Alliance, McNab/Braeside Township Councillor.
Laws that successfully reduce pesticide use come with public education to garden in accordance with clear, strong rules, backed up with restricted sales and good enforcement. Local bylaws cannot restrict pesticide sales, making them less effective than provincial laws that put hazardous products off the shelves or behind the counter.
Pesticides laws substantially reduce environmental levels and exposures. Ontario, Quebec and Alberta studies showed that pesticides from urban landscapes enter waterways. Follow-up studies in the east showed that cosmetic pesticide laws greatly reduced this pollution.
Jurisdictions without cosmetic pesticide laws rely on Health Canada's decisions that individual pesticides pose an 'acceptable risk.' These decisions have been criticized by Canada's Commissioner for the Environment and Sustainability as being out of date, opaque, and not protective of the most vulnerable, because a legislated protective 10-fold exposure margin is ignored.
Health Canada assesses only single ingredients rather than realistic complex mixtures. "Many exposures trigger pathways to cancer, such as inflammation, and interfering with genes, hormones or the immune system. Pesticides can work in concert to disrupt natural functions, highlighting the need to use least-toxic approaches," explains Dr. Michael Gilbertson, a lead scientist in the international cancer research collaboration known as the Halifax Project .
Prevent Cancer Now is a Canadian national civil society organization including scientists, health professionals and citizens working to stop cancer before it starts, through research, education and advocacy to eliminate preventable causes of cancer.

Syria said Tuesday May 9, 2018 that Israel carried out an attack on a military base south of Damascus, which was used by Iranian forces. Reports said Israeli fighter jets entered Syrian airspace and struck Iranian missiles aimed at Israel.
The developments came on the heels of U.S. President Donald Trump's announcement that the United States is pulling out of the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran. "The deal lifted crippling economic sanctions on Iran, in exchange for very weak limits on the regime's nuclear activities," Trump said.
Israel is the first country in the world to carry out an "operational attack" with the F-35 stealth fighter, Israel Air Force commander Maj. Gen. Amikam Norkin said on Tuesday.
"The F-35 squadron has become an operational squadron. We are flying the F-35 all over the Middle East," he said.
Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei slammed U.S. President Donald Trump, saying "you've made a mistake" and claiming that he had more than 10 lies in his speech.
Israel's Intelligence Minister Yisrael Katz spoke to reporters regarding the airstrike Tuesday night attributed to Israel, saying "no one will do this direct work for us," and added that Israel is cooperating with the U.S.
Addressing Iran, Katz said: "They threatened, publically and through emissaries, to harm Israel. We are defending our soldiers and citizen and acting through intelligence gathered, through all our capabilities to detect and prevent" offensives.
The head of Iran's Revolutionary Guards said Europeans were tied to the United States and cast doubt on their ability to save the nuclear deal spurned by U.S. President Donald Trump.
Britain, Germany and France have urged Trump not to take steps that would make life harder for other countries that still want to stick to the Iran nuclear deal. But Guards commander Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari said they could not act on their own.
"It's clear that the Europeans cannot make an independent decision between Iran and America and are tied to America," he said, according to a report on Fars News. "The fate of the Iran deal is clear."
France's foreign minister said the nuclear deal with Iran was "not dead" despite U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to pull the United States out from the agreement, adding that French President Emmanuel Macron would speak later in the day to Iranian counterpart Hassan Rohani.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu highlighted the importance of "continued coordination" between the Israeli and Russian military against the backdrop of current events in Syria.
Upon his departure for Moscow, Netanyahu told reporters that his upcoming meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin is especially important. "In light of what is currently happening in Syria, it is necessary to ensure the continued coordination between the Russian military and the IDF," Netanyahu said.
Twenty-five years ago an up-and-coming Likud legislator published a column on the Iranian nuclear threat. Now let's see if Israel gets what he wished for.
Iranian hard-line lawmakers lit a paper U.S. flag on fire at parliament Wednesday after Trump's nuclear deal pullout, shouting, "Death to America!" Political observers say it's the first time they can remember anything being burned inside the parliament.
Many fear that renewed debate over the deal could open up wounds from 2015 – when the agreement went into place – causing divisions and increasing tensions within the community.
Japanese Foreign Minister Taro Kono said Japan would closely monitor the impact of the U.S. decision to withdraw from the deal. Kono said Japan would continue close talks with related nations towards maintaining a deal, according to a statement released by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Netanyahu might think that Israelis should be grateful to Trump, but at this point the U.S. pullout endangers the world and threatens Israel.
UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres said in a statement the deal "represents a major achievement in nuclear non-proliferation and diplomacy and has contributed to regional and international peace and security." Concerns about the deal should be dealt with through its own mechanisms, and issues not directly related to it "should be addressed without prejudice to preserving the agreement and its accomplishments," Guterres added.
Trump and Netanyahu are united over abandoning the nuclear deal, encouraging regime change in Iran and blocking it in Syria. Exiting the deal heralds a strategic change amid growing tensions on Israel's northern border.
"As the U.S. withdraws from the Iran deal, we encourage all parties to work for a comprehensive political solution to move Iran further away from developing nuclear weapons," NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said according to NATO spokesperson Oana Lungescu.
Trump's decision to exit the nuclear agreement actually presents Iran as the responsible country, one upholding the agreement to the letter.
But neither Israel's prime minister, nor other regional U.S. allies, have any assurances America will stick around to manage the dangerous fallout from the Iran deal's implosion.
Trump said that Iran "will negotiate" or "something will happen." He said that, if Tehran starts up their nuclear program, there will be "very severe consequences."
French President Emmanuel Macron urged his Iranian counterpart Hassan Rohani in a telephone call on Wednesday to respect in entirety the 2015 nuclear deal despite the U.S. decision to pull out of it.
"The French president and the Iranian president agreed to continue their joint work with all concerned states in order to keep implementing the nuclear deal and preserve regional stability," Macron's office said in a statement.
Macron assured Rohani of France's desire to keep the nuclear accord alive and pressed Tehran to do the same.
U.S. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis said on Wednesday that the United States will continue to work with allies to ensure that Iran does not acquire a nuclear weapon.
"We will continue to work alongside our allies and partners to ensure that Iran can never acquire a nuclear weapon, and will work with others to address the range of Iran's malign influence," Mattis said before a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing.
"This Administration remains committed to putting the safety, interests, and well-being of our citizens first," Mattis said.
Mattis also said that he did not anticipate asking for more funding for the U.S. military. "I do not anticipate asking for more dollars. Should Iran do something, that is a different issue. But no, I am not coming to you with an additional supplemental funding request," Mattis said.
Iranian students gathered outside the former U.S. embassy in Tehran on Wednesday to protest President Donald Trump's decision to withdraw from the Iran nuclear deal, according to Fars News.
The students chanted "Death to America" and "The only demand is to burn the nuclear deal" and burned the American flag, according to Fars News.
The report did not indicate how many students attended the protest.
U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to pull out from the international nuclear deal with Iran is ''hasty and rash,'' Iraq's foreign ministry said in a statement on Wednesday.
German Finance Minister Olaf Scholz vowed on Wednesday to try to protect European companies from any adverse effects from U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to withdraw from an international nuclear deal with Iran and reinstate sanctions.
"We'll try to do everything in our means so that European companies will be affected as little as possible," said Scholz at a news conference, adding it would take some time to get clarity about the consequences.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday thanked President Vladimir Putin for "the chance of discussing regional issues and the attempts to solve crises and remove threats in a responsible manner."
Iran cannot be militarily threatened by any foreign power, its defense minister said on Wednesday, according to the Islamic Republic News Agency, a day after the United States pulled out of Iran's 2015 international nuclear deal.
"Today, with attention to the defensive power of our country, we're in a situation that Islamic Iran cannot be militarily threatened by any foreign power," Amir Hatami said.
Hatami pointed to Iran's military role combating "takfiri" fighters in Iraq and Syria as a recent achievement of the Islamic Republic's armed forces. Officials in predominantly Shi'ite Muslim Iran often refer to Sunni Muslim radicals as "takfirist."
British Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson said the world should hold U.S. President Donald Trump to his stated aim of finding a new solution to the Iranian nuclear threat.
Speaking to the British parliament, Johnson said it was now up to the United States to come forward with concrete proposals on Iran.
Britain is looking at information as the government receives it from the United States over the impact of new sanctions on Iran, Prime Minister Theresa May's spokesman said on Wednesday when asked whether assurances had been sought for companies.
"We're obviously at an early point in this process and we're looking at information as we receive it from the U.S," he told reporters. "But that is obviously something we'll be talking about with our European counterparts as well."
India called for diplomacy to resolve the dispute over the Iran nuclear deal after the United States announced it was pulling out of the accord.
New Delhi has longstanding ties with Iran, which is also one of its top oil suppliers. But it has also developed close political and security ties with the United States and the foreign ministry was measured in its response to Trump's decision.
"All parties should engage constructively to address and resolve issues that have arisen with respect to the JCPOA," India's Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
Iraqi President Fuad Masum expressed "regrets" over Trump's decision to pull his country out of the Iran accord, Iraqi state TV reported.
Egypt said Arab nations must be involved in any future efforts to amend the Iran deal following Trump's decision to withdraw from it.
The Egyptian Foreign Ministry also said Iran must abide by its commitments under the separate nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty "in a way that will ensure that Iran remains as a country free of nuclear weapons."
A ministry statement called for Arab participation in any future dialogue on regional issues "especially that which is related to the possibility of amending the nuclear deal with Iran."
Relations between Egypt and Iran have been strained since the late 1970s but Cairo says it engages with the Islamic Republic in multilateral forums.
Schools are functioning as usual in northern Israel on Wednesday despite tensions along the Syrian border, according to Israeli army spokesperson. The Israeli army has ordered to open bomb shelters in parts of Israel's north. The Education Ministry cancelled all field trips planned for the Golan Heights.
Michel told VRT network that at a European Union summit next week, the 28 leaders need to throw their full weight behind the agreement, "but perhaps also to expand the deal."
Michel said that "together with our partners in the world we must see perhaps whether to develop an economic element." He added that "we can promote stability in the region by reinforcing our economic exchanges."
The 28 EU leaders will have a summit in Sofia on May 17 and the Iranian nuclear deal has been put on the agenda.
Germany wants to preserve the deal with Iran because Trump did not offer an alternative to halt the Islamic Republic from making atomic weapons after he pulled out of the agreement, Foreign Minister Heiko Maas said.
"The deal is working. We want to keep in place the controls and transparency rules," Maas said during a news conference. "This is especially so given that it is totally unclear what the U.S. envisages as an alternative to the deal that prevents Iran from developing nuclear weapons while being able to verify compliance."
The United States will be "the loser" for its withdrawal from the nuclear deal, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said in remarks to CNN International that were carried by Turkey's state-run Anadolu news agency.
"America will be the loser here, because you do not abide by the agreement you have reached," Erdogan said, according to Anadolu. "You cannot just make or break an international agreement as you like."
The U.S. decision to pull out "will lead to new conflicts and instability," Erdogan's spokesman Ibrahim Kalin said on Twitter on Wednesday. "Turkey maintains its firm stance against all nuclear weapons, regardless of who owns them," Kalin added.

(SPOT.ph) Your brows can really make or break your look. No matter how long you spend perfecting your winged eyeliner or blending your base, having unruly brows will put all your efforts to waste. Your arches frame your face, so it's important to find the perfect shape and maintain it so it's easier to groom them every morning (yes, we know there are bad brow days when you just can't seem to get it right and you don't know what you're doing wrong). So, we tried a bunch of brow services in the Metro and ranked the best ones based on the service, comfort level, result satisfaction, and price point. Ready to get on-point brows for days?
Dashing Diva might be known as a nail salon, but they offer eyebrow threading, too. The staff are very accommodating and will answer any question you have regarding the service. For their Brow Threading service, you'll be led to a brightly lit private room—great if you feel uncomfortable being exposed to other people while you're getting your brows done. The room is squeaky clean, which already makes you feel like you're in good hands. Their brow technicians take their time to clean up your arches and you can tell they know what they're doing—you won't have to remind them to give your strands a little trim. Just make sure to explain the brow shape you're trying to achieve. Better yet, you might want to tell the technician to just clean up the strands that fall outside your drawn-on arches.
If your arches need a quick fix, you can count on Stylash to do the job in a snap without butchering your brows. For those who know their brow shape and just need a bit of cleaning, we recommend that you draw on your brows the way you normally would and just tell the technician to clean up around the area. The technician makes sure you're comfortable with the temperature of the hot wax, though you might want to ask her to spot test on your hand first rather than on your brow bone. You're in and out in about 10 minutes, but you might want to bring some tea tree oil or a calming cream with you so you don't have to walk around the mall with red skin around your eyebrows.
Maxwax puts a premium on customer service—after making an appointment, you'll be reminded via text message about it on the day you're scheduled for a brow wax. Upon arriving at Maxwax, you'll be greeted by their warm and friendly staff, making you feel like you're right at home. The brow technician will then lead you to a reclining chair and before starting the service, she'll ask if you have specific requests—whether you need your brows to be thinner or you want it shaped or just cleaned up, she'll follow your instructions to a T. They also pluck and thread any strand that gets left behind. If your skin gets a little red after the service, they'll apply tea tree oil to help close pores and soothe skin.
Ooh La Lash's IG-worthy interiors will make you want to pull out your phone to take a snap. The lash salon is equipped with cushy beds that come with pillows to make sure you're comfortable throughout your service, though it might feel a bit cramped if the salon is packed. Ooh La Lash makes use of organic threads, so they're very gentle—perfect for those who have sensitive skin. The brow technicians ask how you want your brows to be groomed, if you want it shaped or just cleaned. We recommend keeping your eyebrow makeup on to make sure your brows don't end up too thin after the service, but if you don't know your eyebrow shape, you can always consult with your brow technician and she'll recommend the best shape for your face. Just make sure to say that you don't want your arches to be too thin, because nobody wants to flaunt '90s Drew Barrymore pencil-thin brows in 2018.
If you need just a bit of cleaning up around your brows, you won't go wrong with Brow Studio's Brow Clean-Up Express. The store is equipped with plush couches that'll keep you feeling comfy throughout your service. The brow technician trims your brows and threads each strand, so it might take a bit longer compared to others, but you'll be sure to step out with a striking set of arches after every session. You won't have to worry about leaving with a red forehead since they apply soothing cream after the service. We recommend Brow Studio for those who just have a couple of stray strands that need to be threaded—otherwise, you might want to ask for ice to numb the skin around your brows or apply a numbing cream to make the experience more comfortable.
Trust us when we say that stepping inside a Benefit store and availing of their Brow Wax service will be one of the best decisions you'll ever make in your life—especially if you have no idea what kind of brow shape suits your features. Benefit's brow technicians are skilled at determining the brow shape perfect for your face, which they do via a three-step brow mapping. Before waxing off anything, they make sure to show you which parts will be waxed off and what shape you can expect after the service. We love how they trim each strand, so it's easier to groom and style afterwards. Plus, they offer cotton dipped in ice-cold water to soothe redness. You'll be sure to walk away with picture-perfect arches every time. The only downside? P700 is pretty steep for a brow wax, especially if it's something you have to do twice a month.
Your arches are in good hands when you step into Browhaus. The staff is very pleasant and professional and the technicians seem to be enthusiastic about helping you get a perfect set of brows, recommending services that they seem fit for your needs. They're not pushy, though, so you won't feel pressured to avail of any of their other services on the spot. Browhaus is equipped with plush recliner seats and there are curtains that separate each treatment area for more privacy. If you have problematic arches or if you're still finding the perfect brow shape for your face, Browhaus can solve all your brow problems. Going regularly might be the problem, since it will set you back almost P700 each time.
You'll immediately fall in love with Hey Sugar's! sweet interiors, so all your worries about your brow threading service will go away. For P160, you'll get to have your brows threaded in a private room and you'll be sure you'll walk out with the arches you want, because the brow technician makes sure to ask if you want to have them shaped or just cleaned. You can even feel free to ask questions about how to maintain your brows or tips on how to make them thicker! What makes Hey Sugar! stand out from the rest is the thread they use—they seem to be thinner than threads used in other salons, which makes the service a lot less painful; perfect for those who have low pain tolerance but want to have their brows groomed by professionals. They also get plus points for the music they play in each private room (each room has one speaker!).
At Brow Lounge, you'll feel right at home thanks to their warm and friendly staff. Whether it's your first time with them or not, they'll make sure you're comfortable and answer any questions you have regarding their services. While there are no private rooms, your back will be against the people strolling the mall, so you still get a sense of privacy during the service. Brow Lounge is very thorough at grooming your brows—they trim, thread, and pluck any stray strand and they apply a cooling gel to soothe the redness around your brows. You won't have to worry about them threading your brows to oblivion, which is probably the number one reason people get scared to have other people touch their arches. It's a bit pricier compared to other threading services, but it won't put a dent in your bank account and you'll walk out with a great set of brows every time so for us, it's totally worth it.
Though brightly lit, Lash Wishes still offers coziness and comfort, thanks to their cushy beds. If you prefer a bit of privacy, you can ask the technician to draw the curtains closed. To make sure you're comfortable throughout the service, they offer a blanket to cover your legs if you're wearing shorts or a dress. Before working on your brows, the technician asks if you prefer keeping your eyebrow makeup on so they can just work around it—which is recommended for those who are pretty meticulous about keeping their brow shape. Otherwise, they'll remove your makeup and you can just tell them if you want to maintain the thickness and just remove the extra strands or make your arches a bit thinner. They start by threading away stray hair, then they trim the strands at the front- and tail-end of your brows to the perfect length—not too short and not too long. They apply Vaseline after the service to help calm your skin and they offer to draw your brows back on again (if you had them removed prior to threading). Lash Wishes gets the top spot because while it's budget-friendly, it offers the same (or even higher) level of comfort and quality you would get at pricier brow places.

Report: First Xbox Original TV Show Programming to Launch in Early 2014
Post by Dan @ 10:36am 16/12/13 | 4 Comments
At Variety's recent 'Dealmakers breakfast' event in Los Angeles, the film and television publication spoke with Nancy Tellem -- a former TV executive who is now the President of Entertainment and Digital Media at Microsoft -- about the company's venture into original TV programming on the Xbox platform, reportedly confirming that the first of its new shows will start screening over Xbox Live on both the Xbox One and Xbox 360 in early 2014 (thanks VG247).
"We're hoping we will be able to put something up in the first quarter, at minimum second quarter," said Tellem
..."I'm incredibly ambitious and impatient," said Tellem, who took the job to produce original content for the Xbox platform in 2012. Because of that, the time it's taken to develop the first slate of series, including a high-profile project based around "Halo," with Steven Spielberg producing, has been "slower," but "reflecting on what we've done and what lies ahead, it's been pretty good."
..."We aren't Netflix, we aren't Amazon, we're a different animal," she said. "We're neither or we're a little like them. It all depends. The lack of black and white and this is the template and this is what we're following is very difficult. As we continue to do deals everyone's going to get more comfortable."
...And when it comes to original programming, "we're trying to focus on whether it's only on Xbox or best on Xbox," Tellem said, referring to exclusive series or interactive features added to NFL broadcasts, for example.
But if a show "doesn't resonate, interactive features won't matter," Tellem said.
The highest profile original programming in the works is obviously the Stephen Speilberg produced Halo project announced during E3, but there has also been talk of interactive NFL football programming and Alan Wake/Max Payne developer Remedy Entertainment's upcoming Xbox One exclusive game will have a transmedia scripted drama offering also expected to be delivered over the new service.

Been a few rumours floating around about potentials for their network. Revivals of Blake's 7 and Heroes was among them.

Has anyone heard on regional issues with this? Ie is it aired/available at the same time? are we price gauged, or is there even any additional cost excluding a live sub? I've heard very little on the media s***e ms is planning to introduce - even less for non us residences.
I only ask as Netflix still won't allow you to view anything of theirs (aware of proxies, but jumping through hoops to legally purchase something at a fair price is pretty farking ridiculous imo). Instead they opted to go through foxtel which airs it on showcase - so min sub is $75 p/m or something equally absurd.
I swear they have dinosaurs running these media companies - they are just so out of touch with the current generation and how they consume media. Its no wonder people turn to piracy even if you do have a foxtel subscription or purchase blurays - illegal copies are more convenient (no drm, universal format, no ads, play at anytime, digital library), better quality (ex. bluray copies) and generally available quicker. It would be nice if someone with a bit of financial clout and installed user base dropped regional lockouts and instead started charging at a global price per episode and seeing how it goes.

Looking in Xbox video $50.99 for ONE season of what ever show say big bang theory HD for example. If it was $5 - $10 i'd probably just buy it. Instead i'll go downstairs and d/l three seasons in an hour chuck it on a USB and off we go.
Khel
I think I remember them saying it'd just be included in a Live membership? But I could be imagining that. I hope so though, that'd be a huge value add (if we get it over here)

The first Transatlantic trophy: Charlie vs Jake
Charlie Collier and Jake de Rosier were both disqualified from the Senior TT but they went on to take the headlines with a head-to-head encounter at a BMRC Brooklands meeting. Charlie and Jake were the best known racing motor cyclists in the UK and the USA, riding arguably the best bikes in the world on the best track. Did the three-race match live up to expextations? Damned right it did, according to a contemporary report…
"…THE PROGRAMME opened shortly after three o'clock with the first de Rosier-Collier match. This tussle between the national champions was spread over three separate events, namely, 5½ mile, 13½ miles, and 27 miles, any two out of the three matches deciding the winner. The men were given a rolling start and mounted their machines below the fork at the point where the big banking flattens out towards the finishing straight. They toured along towards the fork abreast of the official car, in which stood Mr Ebblewhite armed with a red flag. This was dropped a few yards on the hinder side of the starting line, and away the machines went, crossing the line very close together. This principle of starting was employed in all the international matches, and proved very successful, as it entirely prevented the more athletic capabilities of the rider from affecting the issue of the race.
Neck and neck…Charlie, in his usual white sweater, crouched low on his Matchless with Jake in his new leathers on his Indian
"CR Collier was riding his red Matchless twin with 90mm bore by 77.5mm stroke (985cc capacity), whilst de Rosier bestrode his Indian 'No 21' (994cc).
In the first match Collier was first over the starting line, with Jake hard upon his wheels. Up the hill the Englishman at once commenced to establish a promising lead, probably due to the use of a rather lower gear. Sweeping on towards the Byfleet banking with the wind almost directly behind them, there was scarcely any perceptible space between the two machines. Turning into the fork, it was seen that Collier was a little in front, and about a length and a half separated the men at the completion of the first lap. From the way in which de Rosier rode, he adopted a far more erect position than CR, who crouched right down on his tank.
"It became clear that, whatever the Matchless might be doing, the Indian still had something in hand, and de Rosier was evidently so confident in the ability of his mount that he could let his opponent do a little pacemaking for him. Again coming from the bridge the Englishman was several lengths in front, but halfway along the railway straight the American had drawn level. After passing the aeroplane sheds the two machines seemed to merge into one, but the hope of England was dashed to the ground as they rounded the curve, for it could be seen that the white-jerseyed Collier was acting as a background to the crouching leather-covered Jake. With a roar and a whizz they flashed over the finishing line, de Rosier winning by about a length after probably the most exciting race on record.
"Jake de Rosier's total time was 4min 2.8sec; speed, 80.59mph; Collier was 0.4sec slower."
The second de Rosier-Collier match was over five laps, equal to about thirteen and a half miles.
"As before, the lead which Collier managed to get against the wind and up the hill was neutralised before halt a lap was gone. The completion of the first lap found de Rosier hanging a wheel's diameter behind the leader. The second lap found the position entirely unchanged, but the see-saw struggle behind the hill was repeated once more. In the middle of the third lap a tremendous shout was raised when it was seen that de Rosier was stopping, and that Collier had flashed out of sight behind the sheds ere his rival had leached the Byfleet banking. Collier completed his third lap amidst ringing and enthusiastic cheers, and hardly slackening his speed held on two more laps, and crossed the line an easy winner, thus making the match 'all square'.
"Shortly after he had finished the American came ambling nonchalantly in on the rim, with the front cover hanging on the fork stay and the shreds of what had once been an inner tube flapping in the breeze. When the crowd realised what had happened it awarded de Rosier the mighty cheer his pluck and cleverness deserved. Flying along the railway straight at what must have been only a fraction under ninety miles an hour a small stone had pierced his front tyre, with the result that it was flat in a second or two. That the rider managed in such circumstances to keep on his machine speaks volumes for his nerve and resource, but how he managed it will remain a mystery.
"On his arrival willing knives hacked the cover off, but, unfortunately, no spare was to hand, and accordingly it was arranged that de Rosier should use Godfrey's front wheel after the conclusion of the next race [the Collier/de Rosier matches were part of a full day's racing; Godfrey (7hp Indian) won the All-Comers Open Handicap ahead of two 4hp Bats ridden by JT and WH Bashall]. Collier's time was 10min 12sec; speed, 79.9mph.
"Now came the great deciding match of the international contest, this time over a distance of ten laps (about twenty-seven miles). Excitement ran high, as it was thought that, although Jake had the faster machine, Collier's possibly better staying powers might wear him down, and odds of 5 to 4 on Collier were freely offered and taken. Godfrey's 2in. Continental tyred wheel was soon in the place of de Rosier's battered rim. The first start was a false one owing to Jake experiencing some ignition trouble. The magneto carbon brush was eventually found to be at fault, and on the insertion of a new one everything went all right.
"The starting line was crossed with CR three lengths ahead of the Indian, but Jake finished the first lap a wheel ahead of his opponent, only to drop back again behind the aeroplane sheds. The second lap found Collier just in front with de Rosier so close at his side that the riders might have shaken hands. A lap later de Rosier was ahead by over two lengths, but on the straight Collier picked up this distance and as much again by the railway, and covered the half-mile in 21.4sec. He was still leading at the end of the fourth lap, and seemed to be going so well that hope that England would annex the honours ran high. The worst of bad luck, however, was to come along, for shortly after completing the half distance his handle-bar switch jumped into the 'off' position, and to the accompaniment of a gasp of dismay CR slowed down with a puzzled look on his face. A few seconds sufficed to locate the trouble, but they were fatally long ones, for already Jake was half a mile ahead of him and going as strong as ever.
"Collier got his machine going magnificently, and on completing the sixth lap was given a roar of encouragement from the crowd, but his position was now seen to be hopeless. Jake, leaving nothing to chance, hammered along at a tremendous speed, and Collier was never able to make up so much lost ground.
"De Rosier crossed the line amid great enthusiasm, willingly accorded by an admittedly partisan crowd for his fine performance and equally so for the thoroughly sporting conditions of the match. Jake accordingly wins the purse of £130, with added money, and there is none who can say that he does not deserve his triumph.
The winner's time was subsequently announced as 20min 44sec. Speed, 78.64 miles per hour. Collier was 20sec slower."
Collier and de Rosier at the start of the second of the three races
IXION, AS USUAL, summed it up perfectly: "It often happens that great athletic tests, to which the world of sport is eagerly looking forward, an marred by some trifling mishap, and the great Collier-de Rosier match was no exception. De Rosier won the shortest sprint with less ease than we had imagined probable. In the intermediate distance his front tyre collapsed, and Collier's victory was, therefore, of no significance. In the long-distance race Collier's switch lever caused him to lose a good deal of ground, and, barring this trouble, Collier might have won, and, again, he might have lost, for de Rosier knew he had only to keep going to scoop £130, and had, therefore, every inducement to spare his engine. It is to be hoped that another meeting can be arranged, and that in the event of either rider encountering trouble the event may be re-run."
IXION WAS NOT alone in wishing to see a re-run of the first Transatlantic Trophy race. Two enthusiasts offered prize money, inspiring de Rosier to reply: "I have not the pleasure of knowing either Mr Macneill or Mr E Barnfather who are good enough sportsmen to offer to put up a sum of £55 between them for another match with Mr CR Collier. I agree with Mr Macneill that it was unfortunate that both of us had bad luck in the International match; it would have been much better and probably more satisfactory all round if Collier and I had arranged beforehand that, if either one had tyre or other troubles, the race should be re-run, but in view of the fact that Collier did not offer to run the second match race over, I could hardly be blamed for taking the third match and claiming the championship after Collier had his trouble ill the third race.
"Much as I would like to give the English public an opportunity of seeing another match race, I regret that this will be quite impossible, as I have already booked my passage back and am sailing this week but I would like to take this opportunity of suggesting to Mr Collier, whom I consider one of the finest riders in the world, that he come to America. Just at this season of the year I can myself easily make upwards of £150 a week at racing, and Mr Collier, after the splendid performance he put up against me, would be a great drawing card at any meet in America (and there are on an average three a week), and could without difficulty nett a still larger sum.
"I hope Mr Collier will carefully consider the advisability of coming over to America, and I am sure that if he does he will have the same splendid reception that has been given me by the English newspapers and the motor cycling fellows I have run across. I hope to have an opportunity of coming to England another year, and if there is another TT race I want to have a go at it. I was handicapped this year, as I have not done any road riding for the past seven or eight years, but if I go in another TT race I shall do a lot of riding on the road and get prepared months ahead."
THE DAY BEFORE he sailed home England de Rosier popped down to Brooklands to set flying kilometer and hour records of 88.77 and 88.23mph respectively; that evening Charlie and Harry Collier and their dad treated him to dinner at Frascati's (where the MCC had been founded); they also invited EMP Boileau of The Motor Cycle, who remarked: "De Rosier has proved himself to be a good exponent of a good machine during his sojourn in England, and it was with great regret we said good-bye to him."
"Racing Motor Cyclists' Apparel.
THE TIGHT FITTING leather suit which Jake de Rosier wore in his match with CR Collier was designed and made by Messr. Dunhills, of 'Motorities' fame. It is very light, and made in such a way that it can be worn close fitting, or let out to take padding. It should be a popular and suitable dress for all racing motor cyclists."
SO IT WAS JAKE, JAKE, JAKE…but almost before de Rosier had crossed the Atlantic The Motor Cycle was able to report: "British motor cyclists have cause to rejoice in that CR Collier, the brilliant Matchless-Jap exponent, has gained from the smart American rider all the records the latter hoped would remain unconquered for some time after his departure. Collier and de Rosier last met on the occasion of the little dinner at Frascati's which was reported in our issue of last week, and there was nothing in the quiet demeanour of the former to indicate that in just over a week he would have accomplished that which would set the whole motor cycle world a-talking. In their usually quiet and businesslike way, the Colliers went to work. Not a word was said to anyone, and on Saturday morning last the news flashed round, and caused a great stir among those who keenly follow the pastime."
The Blue 'Un's headline and intro said it all: "SENSATIONAL RECORD-BREAKING.
CR Collier rides a mile at 91.37 miles an hour—the fastest speed ever accomplished on a motor cycle."
That was for the flying mile (completed in 39.4sec). Charlie also did a flying kilometre in 25sec (89.48mph) and a flying five miles in 3min 35sec (83.72mph). The report concluded: "At the completion of the attempts, the brothers Collier showed no signs of pleasure; if anything, they were rather sad at the thought that they had not sufficient time previous to the match with de Rosier to do what they have now done with their machine."

Report: Pats sign Revis
Paul Perillo
Patriots.com Writer
It didn't take the Patriots long to change public perception.
After losing their top free agent Aqib Talib to the rival Denver Broncos on Tuesday, the Patriots responded a day later by signing Darrelle Revis to take his place. ESPN'sAdam Schefter reports the sides agreed on a one-year, $12 million deal, citing league sources.
](/node/47411) BEST OF DARRELLE REVIS
Check out a selection of the best images of free agent CB Darrelle Revis. VIEW
Not only was Bill Belichick able to fill Talib's spot at left cornerback, he did so with a significantly better player and in the process inked the highest-profile free agent in team history.
Revis, 28, is regarded by many as the best cornerback in football. Prior to tearing his ACL and missing most of the 2012 season he had gone to four straight Pro Bowls and was named All-Pro three times. He was also quite durable before the knee injury as he missed just three games between 2007-11 before tearing his ACL in Week 2 of 2012 in Miami.
The Jets dealt Revis to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last offseason for first- and fourth-round picks, and the veteran corner turned in another solid season in the NFC South. He went to his fifth career Pro Bowl while playing in all 16 games and recording a pair of interceptions despite being used in mostly zone defenses, which do not play to his strengths as a cover corner.
The Bucs were faced with a deadline on Wednesday in which Revis was due a roster bonus that would have upped the compensation to the Jets to a third-round pick from a fourth-rounder, and his cap number would have been $16 million in 2014. Rather than pay that, Tampa released him, allowing the Patriots to swoop in and sign the best defensive player in football.
Revis is a true difference maker in the secondary and someone who can change games with his ability to patrol one side of the field. As a member of the Jets he often blanketed Randy Moss on the outside and forced Tom Brady to stay away from his most dangerous weapon for large stretches of games. When he's healthy and playing well, no one matches Revis' ability to shut down opposing wideouts – not even Seattle's Richard Sherman, who many believe is currently the best corner in the business.
In seven NFL seasons Revis has started all 95 games in which he's played and recorded 21 interceptions, three forced fumbles, seven fumble recoveries, 108 passes defensed and three touchdowns.

If you are interested in knowing a lot of information about Antonio Canova then you came to the right place! Right here, right on Mostra Canova dot eu you could read info about this famous sculptor and on HD Mania dot TV you could download movies online about him! Yes, it is absolutely truth, right here, right on this wonderful resource you will find some documentary films about Antonio, other sculptors and artists! But here you will find not only documentary movies about different famous people but tons of feature films too in very different genres and different quality for all devices.
His "Perseus with the Head of Medusa" appeared soon after his return from Germany. The moment of representation is when Perseus the hero, flushed with conquest, displays the head of the "snaky Gorgon" Medusa, whilst the right hand grasps a sword of a singular device. By a public decree, this excellent work was placed in one of the stanza of the Vatican reserved for the most precious works of antiquity till then.
The early years of Canova passed in study; the bias of his intellect was to sculpture. In his ninth year he executed two small shrines of Carrara marble, which are still in existence. Amongst those who patronized his grandfather was the patrician family Falier of Venice, and by this means young Canova was first introduced to the senator of that name, who was later to become his most fervent patron. After the termination of this engagement he began to work on his own account and the some monks provided him with his first workshop. Here he labored for four years with the greatest perseverance.
You are currently browsing the archives for the ANTONIO CANOVA blog posts category.


The tone, story and overall production value suggest nothing so much as an above-average episode of "Tales From The Crypt," expanded to feature length by a handful of character-fleshing moments and several virtuoso widescreen sequences of vampiric massacre. Given the sorry state of the genre as of late, that's more than ample reason to peg the piece as a genuinely worthwhile bit of viewing. That it's not out to rework the entire genre is part of it's strength: It accepts that it's a "genre picture" and treats it as a license to cut to the chase. It's as aware as you are that "she shouldn't go in there!!!" or that the first-act introduction of various lethal-looking work machines automatically means that one or more humans and/or vampires will be getting chewed up by them in act 3.
I will say that I greatly appreciate the way it dismisses almost-entirely with tiresome postmodernism, getting the "vampires don't exist!" "so what are they!?" junk out of the way quickly and keeping the characters all on the same "everybody knows how vampires work" page; and that it's interesting that the film gets more "gore-mileage" out of Hartnett's prefered method of vampire-killing – fireaxe to the head – than vampire attacks themselves.
Bottom line, best vampire movie in awhile. Give it a look.
I can't wait to see this movie!!! I'm just thinking about what one critic said about the film "it makes the Vampire scary again." After years of watching Anne Rice's Metro-sexual Vamps and Blade's cannon fodder blood-suckers, it's good to see the old-fashioned creature's from hell devouring the life-force of the innocents.
I like your review, and I'm glad you liked film. I'm not sure why so many people dislike this film. It's an original idea, in an original setting, with some really creepy vampires. what's not to like? While the plot maybe mediocre I think there are enough great elements to add up to an awesome flick.
I just reviewed this film myself on my blog. And being a fresh film critic I'm always looking for more feedback. And you are a good reviewer. ;)If you get the chance check it out.
