The Story Of Lamborghini LM002 - The Rambo Lambo - Duration: 12:15.
The LM002 is one of those cars that sadly we will never see again.
The LM002 was built at a time that Lambo was a totally different brand from now, was crazy
and without money.
The LM002 is one of the craziest cars Lamborghini has ever made.
From a rear engine military vehicles to LM003 Zagato here is the Story Of Lamborghini LM002 - The Rambo Lambo.
The year was 1977, Ferruccio Lamborghini had 4 years that had left the company that he
founded and the oil crazies of the 70s had hit the car industry hard.
Lamborghini was in big financial troubles at the time, so they started taking on contracts
from external companies.
One of which was BMW.
BMW at the time was working on the E26 M1, but since they had no experience of building
mid-engined supercars they contacted Lamborghini to do the work for them.
Another contract was to build an all-terrain vehicle for the U.S. military on behalf of
Mobility Technology International, this being accepted with the view to winning a lucrative
contract and easing the financial strain at Sant ' Agata . On the back of these promising
opportunities, the management borrowed a substantial sum from the Italian government.
With money in their pocket Lamborghini started working on the new project.
The new offroader was called the Cheetah and was presented at the 1977 Geneva Auto Show.
The Cheetah was not built at the factory in Sant'Agata but in the United States because
the U.S military would not accept a car build outside the States.
But the Cheetah would face tons of problems.
First it was largely based on a competing design on the FMC XR311.
This resulted in legal action from FMC against MTI and Lamborghini in 1977.
Another Cheetah problem was the layout.
Like the XR311 the Cheetah engine a 5.9-litre Chrysler V8 was mounted at the rear.
Not only did its position give the Cheetah erratic handling due to terrible weight distribution,
but the engine provided the 2-tonne vehicle with a meagre 180bhp.
But the biggest problem was that Lamborghini felt so confident in the project that it allegedly
diverted funds from the BMW M1 that was developing, without telling BMW.
Both BMW and MTI terminated their partnerships with Lamborghini as the company sank into
bankruptcy.
Despite the failure of the Cheetah, the idea of a Lamborghini off-road vehicle was still
very much alive, and with new capital from investors, and three years later, at the 1981
Geneva Auto Show Lamborghini presented the LM001 short for Lamborghini Militaria number
1.
Lamborghini had completely abandoned the Cheetah design.
The engine was still mounted at rear but this time was a AMC V8 but also the option of putting
in a Countach V12, was taken into consideration.
Despite the redesign the LM001 suffered from the same issue as the Cheetah.
The weight distribution was still terrible and the AMC engine offered only 180 hp.
Like the Cheetah the LM001 project was abandoned only after one prototype.
One year later in 1982 Lamborghini would present LMA002 standing for Lamborghini Militaria
Antiore.
Lamborghini developed a completely new chassis design and mounted the V12 Countach LP500S
engine in the front of the car, this way they fixed the weight distribution problem.
At this time the interior was kept very simple as they intended to sell the LMA002 to armed
forced in the Middle East and the United States, but that didn't quite go as planned.
In the rear, space was free now for six more passengers, together with the four seats inside
the vehicle this added up to ten people.
The suspension and the tires needed further development over those used for the LM-001,
mainly because the LMA-002 was about 500 Kg heavier and could carry six more people.
The overalldesign was still very similar with the LM001 with flat panels for easier armored
parts.
The biggest change was made for the new engine layout.
Since the LM001 had the engine at rear, it had some serious looking air intakes found
behind the rear doors but the overall design was very similar with previous prototype.
Also in 1983 Lamborghini build another prototype doubt LM003.
It was virtually identical to the LMA002, but instead of the V12 Countach engine, the
LM003 was powered by a 6-cylinder, 150 bhp (112 kW), 3.6L turbocharged diesel engine
provided by VM Motori, this prototype was built because the military required diesel propulsion.
Without any offers from military forces Lamborghini decided to build a road going version of their
car.
After much testing and altering of the prototype, the production model was finally unveiled
at the Brussels Auto Show in 1986.
The car had lost the A from its name and was just called LM002.
The LM002 was like nothing else on the market the closest competitor was the Rang Rover
but even the Range was far away from the Raging Bull.
The LM002 was one of the most luxurious cars on the market and the standard equipment list
included just about every luxury item available in the Eighties, four leather seats, thick
color-matched carpeting everywhere, air-conditioning, tinted power windows, and an Alpine stereo
system that for whatever reason was mounted on the roof console.
But like every Lambo the LM002, despite its massive proportions 1.89m tall and 2m wide
and with a weight of more than 2,700 kg was an incredible performer.
The LM002 could reach 100km/h in less than 8 seconds and reach a top speed of 200km/h.
The first production unit of the LM002 was delivered to H.R.H.
King Hassan of Morocco in late 1986 and after him an endless list of celebrities started
ordering their LM002.
In sort of way the LM002 was like the H1 was in the 90s Escalade in the 00s and G and Cayene
aare now.
Some of the famous peoples who owned a LM002 Sylvester Stallone, Mike Tyson, Keke Rosberg,
Malcolm Forbes and Tina Turner which I am going to talk about her Lamborghini later
on because is quite a bit interesting.
Rumor had it the Saudi army ordered 40 of them for their own use, to be equipped with
machine guns, another rumor talked about a vast order from Libya, but neither was ever officially confirmed.
The LM002 was build from 1986 to 1993 and through its 7 year of production something
between 301 to 328 cars were build.
I'm not sure about this because different sources say different things.
Beside the standard LM002 some lets say limited edition cars where built.
The US Importer of Lamborghini did create a special, the LM002 LM Americana edition,
this came with special chromed bumpers, unique striping on both sides, upgraded leather interior,
special side moldings underneath the doors and modified vents on the engine hood and
on the side, also custom alloy OZ/MSW wheels were mounted, most of them came with the fuel
injected Diablo engine.
Also, a LM002 with a 7.2 liter V12 engine normally intended for offshore powerboat racing
was offered through special orders.
Some sources say that also a 7L was available but I'm not sure about this, even though Lamborghini
built a LM002 prototype with a 7L engine.
Also, three estate version of the LM002 were built by Turin-based autoshop owner Salvatore Diomante.
This cars where built for the Sultan Of Brunei at least one of them has left Brunei, and
was for sale some time ago in Germany.
Also a pick up version was build for the Saudi Royal Family.
Some other sources say that also a 6 wheeler version was built but not much is known about
it.
Now about Tina Turner.
This LM002 is special because is powered by a Mercedes 5L V8 engine.
Apparently Tina doesn't know how to drive a manual so she swapped the manual Lambo gearbox
with an automatic Mercedes one.
This car was for sale some time ago for $262,000.
The LM002 would also be the first factory built racing Lamborghini.
In 1987, Lamborghini sent an LM002 to a team of special engineers with the intention of
making it capable of participating in the Paris Dakar Rally.
They stripped it of anything that added unnecessary weight and gave it an upgraded suspension,
engine modifications which brought it to 600 hp, full roll cage, plexiglas windows, and
GPS equipment.
But funding ran out before it could officially be entered in competition.
Lamborghini decide to race it to Rally of the Pharaohs in 1987 but didn't start the
race after the sponsor had a deadly accident.
The LM002 Rally re-appeared in the 1988 off-road rally in Greece, when Mario Mannucci was the
driver with Sandro Munari as the co-pilot, sadly the Lamborghini didn't finish this race.
When the Indonesian group took over Lamborghini they tried to build new models since Diablo
was the only model that they had for sale.
One of these models was a new off-roder a successor to the LM002, therefore a United
Kingdom based company was contacted to do the design but this job later was handed over
to Zagato.
Only some drawing were maa for this car because a dept market research study revealed only
a small interest would exist in the new LM003.
This project was killed completely after Audi bought Lamborghini.

The Best No Fuss Hamburger Recipe - How to Make the Best Hamburger Patty from Scratch - Duration: 3:21.
We're Adam and Joanne from inspiredtaste.net welcome to our kitchen.
Hi Guys, we're back and we are making our no fuss hamburger recipe.
Before we show you how, we have three tips you should know about.
Number one is start with good quality meat because if you start with bad meat you will
end up with a bad burger.
Very true. You also want some fat in there so I like twenty percent but you can go down to fifteen
percent fat if you want.
Now number two, is all about keeping the burgers juicy and the texture great so don't over
mix the burger meat when you are forming the burger patties.
And we are trying to treat it like a steak so we don't add seasoning or salt or mustard
or cream or anything to the burger mixture at all.
We form our patties and we season the outside and just like Adam said that's exactly how
you treat a steak and a steak turns out perfectly seasoned and so do these burgers.
And then number three is our favorite way of cooking the burger is on a flat top.
It gives you a little bit more control and the burger cooks in it's own juices.
You get a nice brown crust too.
If you are worried about cooking it on the grill thats fine, you can still grill these
burgers.
It's not a problem.
But we have actual taken our cast iron out to our grill and grilled them out there.
That is how much we like flat top cooked burgers but it is totally up to you.
So you still get the smoke but you get more control of the temperature that you are cooking to.
Now it's time to make burgers!
We make third pound burgers.
Divide the meat then gently form into patties.
I like using the palm of my hand and my thumb and tips of my fingers to quickly form them
into patties without overworking the meat.
It's time for the seasoning.
At a minimum you need to generously sprinkle some salt onto both sides of the burgers.
We're also adding some fresh ground pepper.
This is also a great time to add your favorite spices.
Don't forget — season both sides.
Just before cooking, we press a dimple into the middle of each burger.
I know it sounds a little weird, but it helps to prevent the middle from puffing up while they cook.
Okay time to cook.
Like we said earlier, we love using a flat top or cast iron pan.
Melt some butter in a pan over medium heat, add the burgers and cook for 3 to 4 minutes
on each side, depending on how well done you like them.
If you have a meat thermometer, use it and if you need a chart for cooking temperatures,
head over to our recipe.
It's all there for you.
Now the burgers are cooked, let them rest for a few minutes.
Then it's time to assemble.
This is where you can go wild — like bacon, add it.
Love cheese — why not?
Us, we're sticking to the no-fuss theme today.
A bun, lettuce, tomato and onion.
See how juicy they are?
Enjoy!!

Daily Life at University: JAPAN VS USA [Student Vlog 05] - Duration: 10:43.
("You did answer!") Japanese vs. USA University Life [JUNE 15, 2017]
Aw, thank you! I know we just talked but
I'm getting nervous and wanted to hear your voice again.
What are you getting nervous about?
Ohhhh the travel!
Aw, you're fine! You're fine.
Keep going! Are you going to school today?
Yep, I'm about to run off to school
to finish ONE LAST PAPER!
This is it!
One last paper~! Get it done~!
One last paper~! This is it~!
Alright, I love you. Talk to you soon.
Alright, I love you, mommy.
I'll talk to you before I get on the plane.
Ok! Wonderful. I'll be here!
OK - have a good day!
You too, thank you, bye-bye!
[ LET'S WALK TO SCHOOL]
Hey everyone! Welcome back.
I feel like it's been a few weeks since I did a school vlog
So, tomorrow is a really big day for me
but in the meantime I wanted to share
I mean, it's been like 6 weeks since I did one of these?
I feel like I haven't filmed a school vlog in 6 weeks er something.
...and there has been a lot that changed!
So in these 6 weeks I've been getting used to like
the classes and like, the courseload here on campus
so I thought today, maybe I could share some of the differences
of what I noticed between school here in Japan
versus back home in the States.
So, let's do that today!
[Things I notice on my Japanese campus: Fashion]
The first big difference I noticed is fashion.
I feel like the staple fashion in the States is to wear
skinny jeans, flip-flops and a hoodie.
But in Japan, I feel that girls will 80% of the time
will either wear a skirt or very loose pants.
So you see a lot of girls in (long) skirts.
I feel like in the States that girls do not wear (longer) skirts to school
because it's too troublesome?
I need utility in my clothes.
I need to move without stuff blowing away.
But the majority of the time, girls wear skirts here
and I don't know how they're keeping their skirts down
but there must be a starch spray I'm not aware of!
But I'm almost late for class - we have...
I have 2 minutes to get to class
Let's go!
[ OOPS! ]
Guys! The weirdest thing just happened to me?!
So I just walked into class and
the guy who was presenting today was like just like
"You're half an hour early!"
I asked what time class starts and he said 10:30...
and I'm like... does this not say I'm late for class?
He was like, no it's not 10:30
it's 10:05 er something...
...are you kidding me???
He said someone's probably playing with my phone
...Guys!
Can someone please explain this to me?!
(Computer say 10:17 but phone says 10:43)
What's wrong with my phone?!?!?
Alright. That's ridiculous!
[Things I Notice on my Japanese Campus: CLASSES ] I didn't explain this yet, but basically,
[Things I Notice on my Japanese Campus: CLASSES ] the way that classes work here is that
you only have each class one time per week.
Each class is two credits
and in grad school,
I think you're supposed to take six classes per semester
but because of the way the credits worked out this semester
I'm taking 9 classes this semester
which I guess is like 18 credit hours?
But they only meet once a week.
So you have to learn everything and somehow retain it each week
And also, this may just be a product of my school
and not Japanese schools in general but
there's not a lot of selection?
The department here is pretty small so
core classes only occur at set time, which tend to conflict
so I had to take as many as I could this semester
which is nine classes.
So I guess 18 credit hours, but it feels like so much more.
Apparently time-warping phones is another difference here in Japan...
You gotta be kidding me...
You already drank it all?!
So, I'll get started on my paper...
then once you're back we can go eat?
Do you mind throwing this out for me? (Sure!)
Thanks!
OK I'll see you...
NEVER. See ya never.
[ Things I Notice on My Japanese Campus] HOMEWORK
I feel like homework is different here
or at least here in my graduate school because
it'll be different when I'm a second-year student but
the majority of my classes now in the first year
you have to write a paper for almost every class
every week... which really starts to grate on you.
So you have to do the reading, then write the paper
then go to class and listen to someone present the same content
So I feel like there's a lot more
repetition of the content, whereas in the States
you kind of just like read -- or don't --
and show up to class to listen to a lecture.
So yeah, there's not really lectures
it's mostly like "rindoku" (presenting in terms)
So we're all given a section or a research topic.
and then you have to present on it.
So that's a difference but...
To that light, I actually have to get writing!
So just sitting in my little cubbyhole
and getting this done before class starts
time to GOOOO~!
[ PRINT ]
Yep...
Sadly, the time is not wrong this time around.
It's 5:30 a.m.
Good Morning, everyone, for the SECOND time in this video...
It's is a brand new morning. it's Friday morning.
Friday the 16th at 6:30 a.m.
and this is my computer so I believe this clock is right.
So I got home last night after class
and was just too busy to finish filming because
I had to pack and get ready because
I'M GOING HOME! I'm flying home in a few hours
and I'm finally going home to see my best friend
who's getting married! (And I'm a bridesmaiddddd)
I'm so excited, this means I'm going home to New York
then I'm going all the way home to Virginia
And i'm also going to Florida for the Bachelorette Party.
So I'm going to be all over the East Coast for the next week
but I don't think I really have time to film
so I really want to get this video done
as soon as possible.
Maybe i can finish editing in the airport.
So, I did get my paper done by the way.
I turned it in, I went to class
and then my teacher decided to assign me one last presentation
before the semester ends for his class.
I was like, "What?! You want ME to teach?!"
he's all like "You'll be FINEEEE"
but he wouldn't look me in the eye.
Ohp! I think my toast is done.
Another thing I did was go to lunch with my friend
in the States we definitely have cafeterias
kind of like "Shokudou" as they're called in Japanese
I usually end up eating cafeteria or
convenience store food, which looks so different.
It's like Deep-Fried Cutlets and Gravy
or like Katsudon... and ramen...and chilled reimen noodles...
I'm just so used to eating a sandwich in the States
but there are full-on dinner items that you can have for lunch here.
and I guess it's also kind of different because
I'm used to like, dorm life.
In the US, I feel like dorms, and campus
and college towns are big concepts in the U.S.
I used to live in the dorm here, which was a 1-hr train ride from campus
Like... it's an HOUR away?!
How is that even affiliated anymore?!
In the U.S., if I drove an hour away I'd be at another State or at least another campus
Dorms and living on campus really isn't a thing here
If you do live in a dorm, they're more like single rooms
in the U.S. single rooms are a rare thing.
You usually have a double or a four-person suite.
But a nostalgic thing, is that there's still a huge library.
there are great libraries here too
and quiet places where you can sit
and the library has a cafe that makes the BEST espresso that I've had in Japan.
There are definitely differences.
Obviously, being taught in Japanese is the biggest difference
But, it's not all THAT different
from my experience of University life in the U.S.
But what about you guys?
Maybe my Japanese viewers can weigh in?
The things that I'm seeing here on campus...
is this maybe just my personal experience?
Is this normal in other Japanese school as well?
I'm so tired, my throat's dried out...
I also threw in a lot of souvenirs. Mostly food...
Snacks, and things I picked up.
Also, since Boomer likes to cook Japanese curry
I got him something similar, Hokkaido Cream Stew
and Hokkaido Beef Stew. I'll give those to him.
A new Hokkaido flavor for him to try cooking with.
So, I found the craziest thing for my friend.
My friend who's getting married, I'll have to get her a proper present too
but she's an amazing artist and she sketches
I found this book that looks silly / ridiculous but
it's a catalog of natural poses of people doing normal things.
My favorite is the people playing video games.
Or like, lying down reading a book!
I don't know how series this is. I saw it on....
Rocket News er something?
But I actually thought that she would like it so
whatever, this is OK, right?
This is my favorite souvenir that I'm bringing home this time.
So I hope you guys liked this kind of sightly different video.
This is impossible.. my hair's impossible.
I have to do all of my homework on the plane.
I think I'll pay for internet so I can get my homework done on the plane.
But yeah, I hope you enjoyed this school vlog
and I'll see you at some point next week!
Alright, thank stew for watching today!
Did I say stew???
Oh well. THANK STEW FOR WATCHING!
Ew. gross.
So yeah, I'll see you guys in my next video
and thanks for watching!
I have to get to the plane, and I'll see you guys soon!

Five Ways to Maintain Your Brain | Humana - Duration: 2:11.
What's the secret to a happy life?
A healthy brain!
Yep, when it comes to happiness and healthiness, your gray matter matters.
Here are five tips for optimal brain health.
One: Get moving.
Studies have shown that physical activity may reduce your risk of memory loss, dementia,
and Alzheimer's disease.
Regular cardiovascular exercise elevates your heart rate and increases blood flow to the
brain and body.
Did you know that exercising at least three times per week can increase the volume of
parts of the brain responsible for memory?
Two: Eat a heart-healthy diet.
What's good for the heart is good for the brain.
Eating a healthy balanced diet, high in fruits and veggies, can lower bad cholesterol and
keep blood pressure in check.
To keep your brain healthy, be sure to stock up on leafy green vegetables, fish and nuts,
and avocados.
Three: Rest up.
Let's not mince words here. Your brain can't survive or thrive without sleep.
Studies have shown that when you fail to get enough sleep, your concentration, coordination,
memory, and mood suffer.
Want to feel rested and restored tomorrow?
Try hitting the hay early tonight.
Four: Phone a friend.
That's right. Sitting around and chatting with friends may improve brain function.
Studies have shown that maintaining rich, meaningful relationships slows the rate of
memory decline.
Regular social activity promotes creation of new brain cells and supports brain repair.
Five: Train your brain.
Your brain is a muscle, and like any other muscle the brain needs a regular workout.
Exercise your mind with brain-training activities like jigsaw and crossword puzzles.
Keep your mind sharp by learning a new language, or playing games that require you to think
strategically, like chess, Sudoku, or Words with Friends.
It's never too late or too early to incorporate these healthy habits into your routine.
So, show your brain some love and start today!

Wallace, Darwin's Forgotten Frenemy - Duration: 4:45.
This episode is brought to you by Squarespace.
Everyone knows the name Charles Darwin.
He was the father of evolution, the first to come up with that whole natural selection,
survival-of-the-fittest thing.
Right?
Actually, Darwin doesn't deserve all the credit.
While Darwin was puzzling over the beaks of Galapagos finches, another naturalist working
in what's now Indonesia was reaching the exact same conclusions.
His name was Alfred Russel Wallace.
Darwin gathered the observations that led to the theory of natural selection while traveling
the world on the H.M.S. Beagle in the 1830s.
After he returned to England, he spent decades developing his ideas and slowly working on
a book about them.
Wallace, who was born in 1823, was 14 years younger than Darwin.
He was also less wealthy and less well-connected.
While Darwin was methodically shaping the theories that would make him famous, Wallace
was doing some globetrotting of his own, studying natural history in South America
and the Malay Archipelago.
In 1858 he wrote a letter to Darwin -- already a well-known scientist at the time -- outlining
in detail his ideas about how species changed through time.
Needless to say, Darwin was pretty shocked to get a letter from some young nobody who'd
come to the same conclusions about evolution that he had.
Darwin had been working on this book for a long time and he didn't want Wallace to
publish first and get all the credit, so he and his friends quickly threw together a meeting
of the Linnean Society of London, an association of biologists.
In the meeting, the secretary of the society presented the ideas of both men at the same time.
Wallace wasn't even at the meeting, because he couldn't exactly commute from the remote
islands in the Indian Ocean where he was working at the time.
But … neither was Darwin, because his one and a half year old son had died just a few
days beforehand.
Only around 30 people actually showed up at the Linnean Society to hear the papers be
presented, and no one seemed to realize the significance of what they were hearing at
the time.
So why is Darwin so famous today while Wallace is so obscure?
Well, for one thing, Darwin had been working on his theory for decades.
By a year after the Linnean Society meeting, he was ready to publish a pretty comprehensive
book he'd written on evolution, On The Origin of Species.
You might've heard of it.
The book made a huge splash and everyone pretty much forgot about that other weird young guy
no one had ever heard of.
Remember, Darwin was already pretty famous -- he'd written a wildly popular account
of his travels called The Voyage of the Beagle over a decade before.
It took Wallace another decade to publish his own book on natural selection, and by
that time the theory was already widely known as "Darwinism."
And when Wallace published another book on natural selection later on,
he put the word "Darwinism" in the book's title.
That probably didn't help.
As the years passed, Darwin and Wallace had a polite but complicated relationship.
Wallace believed that natural selection couldn't explain human intelligence on its own, arguing
that some sort of higher power must be involved.
Darwin and his friends didn't agree.
But, when Wallace ran into money troubles later in life, Darwin helped arrange for him
to get a government pension in recognition of his scientific contributions.
Today, Wallace is mostly just a historical footnote for non-scientists.
An effort to raise money to build a bronze statue of him to commemorate the 100th anniversary
of his death in 2013 only made it halfway to its goal.
But poor Wallace hasn't been totally forgotten.
He's considered to be the father of biogeography -- the study of how species are distributed
across the planet.
His observations of how Asian and Australian species intermingled in Indonesia and New Guinea
kickstarted scientific interest in how plants and animals end up living in specific places.
The Wallace Line -- the surprisingly sharp boundary between islands with plants and animals
more like those of Asia and plants and animals more like those of Australia
still bears his name.
And in the end, they did make that statue of him, which was donated to
London's Natural History Museum.
Maybe it's just as well that Darwin's the one who got permanently associated with
the theory of natural selection because "Darwinism" is a lot easier to say that "Wallace-ism."
But the contributions of Darwin's lesser-known frenemy Wallace still deserve to be remembered.
Not least because he maybe inspired Darwin to get going on finishing the book.

Brilliant Movies Of 2017 You Totally Missed - Duration: 10:35.
Movies: they're everywhere.
With multiple new releases coming out every single day, there's just no way anybody has
the time or money to see all of them.
Which is too bad, because it means that a lot of really good films go completely under
the radar.
Heck, you may not have even heard of some of the best films of the year!
Don't worry, though, because we've got your back.
Here's a look at some of the brilliant movies of 2017 you totally missed.
Prevenge
Ask anyone who's ever been pregnant, and they'll tell you that the whole "creating another
human with your own body" thing isn't easy.
Back pain, swollen feet, and a rollercoaster of emotions are enough to make even the most
calm people go a little crazy.
But in Prevenge, that pregnancy-induced madness quickly turns... to murder.
Writer/director Alice Lowe plays Ruth, a pregnant woman grappling with the death of her partner.
As her due date nears, Ruth begins listening to the menacing supernatural thoughts of her
unborn child, and starts to believe the world should be held accountable for ultimately
leaving her baby without a father.
Cue a revenge-fueled killing spree that leads Ruth to reevaluate each piece of her wildly
fragmented life.
"Just so that you know you have absolutely no control over your mind or your body anymore.
This one does."
Oh, and that's no prosthetic belly there: Lowe was actually in her third trimester when
she filmed Prevenge.
Talk about Method acting!
Chuck
Once upon a time there was a regular guy named Chuck Wepner who sold liquor and did some
prizefighting on the side for cash to support his family.
Then, one day in 1975, he was cherry-picked from a sea of boxers to go glove-to-glove
with one of the world's greatest athletes: boxing legend Muhammad Ali.
As most film fans know, Wepner's amazing story famously inspired the classic film Rocky.
'How can I help you Mr. Wepner?"
"You follow boxing?"
"Rocky?"
"Tell Sly, Rocky's here."
"I can handle this."
But unlike the fictionalized Rocky, Chuck aims to tell the true tale of this unlikely
sports hero, with Liev Schreiber in the lead and a great cast including Naomi Watts backing
him up.
The Lost City of Z
Charlie Hunnam, Robert Pattinson, Sienna Miller, and the new Spider-Man himself Tom Holland
teamed up for The Lost City of Z, a thought provoking adventure tale about a group of
explorers searching the Amazon for a legendary lost civilization.
"I call it Zed.
The ultimate piece of the human puzzle!"
Unfortunately, The Lost City of Z opened the same weekend as The Fate of the Furious, so
pretty much nobody had any idea it existed, and it vanished from the box office almost
instantly.
The good news?
That gives you the opportunity to unearth a cinematic lost treasure of your own.
The Transfiguration
This one is definitely not your average vampire thriller.
The Transfiguration shifts its focus away from classic vampire tales to the story a
young teen named Milo who shields himself from the unfriendly outside world with a deep-rooted
fascination with the undead.
But that interest turns lethally obsessive when he becomes friends with the troubled
Sophie, leading to a chilling slice-of-afterlife indie horror flick that will leave you completely
transfixed.
"And you change a lot, after the first person you kill.
You change a lot more after… after one after another?"
The Devil's Candy
Ethan Embry stars in this sinfully delicious horror film about a tortured artist who blacks
out and wakes to discover he has painted a horrifying portrait of pure evil.
Has he been touched by some kind of holy - or unholy - force?
Or is he simply going mad?
The only way to find out is to watch The Devil's Candy for yourself.
If you dare!
T2 Trainspotting
To anyone who's said sequels rarely stack up, we counter with T2 Trainspotting, the
21-years-later follow-up to Danny Boyle's classic Trainspotting.
Two decades on, T2 peeks in on the life of the gang from the original, with Begbie, Renton,
Spud and Sick Boy each in an unexpected - or all too expected - place in their lives.
Can people really change?
Or is that just an illusion we sell ourselves?
Boyle's inventive sequel asks the questions, but you may not like the answers.
"Where did it all go wrong?
Hahaha."
"Where did it all go wrong?"
"Where did it all go wrong?"
"Where did it all go wrong?"
I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore
This Netflix exclusive release stars Elijah Wood and Melanie Lynskey as a pair of eccentric
neighbors who embark on a quest to track down the thieves who burgled her home.
Their mission quickly melts into chaos and violence as they frantically try to outwit
the pack of corrupt criminals following their every move.
I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore bursts forward with an inventive, subversive,
slyly smart, and downright fun feel that'll have you hollering in one scene and pondering
society's structure in the next.
"All right tough guy, you had your chance."
"Ow ow."
"Oh God… are you OK?"
Dig Two Graves
The brainchild of screenwriters Hunter Adams and Jeremy Phillips, the indie horror outing
Dig Two Graves centers around 14-year-old Jacqueline Mather, referred to by her more
masculine nickname "Jake."
Grieving for her recently deceased brother, Jake is thrown for a loop when she's visited
by three strange men who say they can bring him back to life.
"I'm not supposed to talk to strangers, so..
I'm Wyeth.
Now that we know each other we're no longer strangers."
Are they telling the truth?
What lengths will Jake have to go to see her brother again?
And what does her grandfather, Sheriff Waterhouse, have to do with it?
As Jake begins to contemplate an unthinkable trade-off, dark secrets of her family's once-hidden
history rises to the surface.
Inspired by gothic motifs of grief and revenge, and soaked with the uncertainty of an ambiguous
timeline, Dig Two Graves should captivate discerning genre enthusiasts.
And though it didn't make any big waves at the box office, given its tiny release, Dig
Two Graves has been showered with acclaim from critics, with RogerEbert.com calling
it an "uncommonly smart, well-made, and ultimately touching meditation on grief."
Colossal
You'd expect a film with a title like Colossal to be an overhyped summer tentpole, but this
pitch black sci-fi indie comedy came and went without getting the media attention it deserved.
Colossal stars Oscar-winning actress Anne Hathaway as Gloria, a woman in the throes
of a post-breakup existential limbo who's shocked to realize she actually has bigger
problems than just curbing her drinking and getting back on the dating scene.
Like, giant reptilian kaiju-sized problems in the form of an enormous monster terrorizing
South Korea.
These two things don't sound like they could possibly be part of the same movie, but the
way Colossal connects them is just part of the film's genius.
"I just feel like dancing so ah… so guess which film this from huh?
"F--- is going on?"
"Do you want to make any requests?
This does not last that long."
A distinctly unique take on the monster movie genre boasting ultra fresh performances from
Hathaway and Jason Sudeikis, Colossal is decidedly strange in the very best way.
From the Seoul street fights reminiscent of Rock 'em Sock 'em Robots to the ultimate narrative
twist, here's a film weird and wild enough to stretch your definition of what a creature
feature should be.
Raw
This foreign horror flick is just as formidable in English as it is in French.
Raw, which was called Grave in its original European release, starts off so simply it
may even elicit laughter.
A movie all about a vegetarian adjusting to college life amongst meat-eating peers?
Not exactly captivating.
But writer-director Julia Ducournau practically slaps you across the face with a rack of raw
ribs in the moments that follow.
Happy-go-lucky freshman and lifelong plant-eater Justine has high hopes for veterinary school
and intends to be laser-focused on her studies.
However, her mind soon shifts to a different, unexpected target: human flesh, the taste
she acquires after she's forced to eat raw meat during a hazing ritual.
As Justine tries to make sense of her newfound cannibalistic desires, Raw swerves down the
winding road of navigating college parties, uppity professors, and the complexities of
sexual identity.
We won't spoil the ending, but we have a feeling that Raw's third act is what catapulted it
into the laps of many adoring critics—and made a few viewers fall out of their seats.
Bloody and brutal but oh-so bright, Raw is a film you can really sink your teeth into.
Literally.
Land of Mine
After making big waves at the Toronto International Film Festival and in Danish theaters in 2015,
Land of Mine finally hit theaters in America at the beginning of 2017, not that anyone
seemed to notice.
That's a shame considering how gripping Land of Mine is.
Based on a true story, the film is set in Denmark at the end of 1945.
Freed from German occupation, the country was still filled with thousands of hidden
land mines.
Sgt.
Carl Rasmussen and his band of German prisoners of war are tasked with clearing the explosives,
a job that brings into question justice, morality, and vengeance in a single breath.
"(speaking Dutch)"
This historical drama earned itself a 2017 Oscar nomination for Best Foreign Language
Film, a standing ovation at TIFF, and the title of best Danish film of 2015.
If Land of Mine is missing from your watchlist, change that immediately—if not sooner.
The Salesman
A twisty and intriguing drama from Iran, The Salesman tells the story of Emad and Rana,
a theater loving couple who set out to stage a production of Arthur Miller's classic play
Death of a Salesman.
After Rana is attacked, however, their lives are upended as the need for revenge begins
to take center stage in their lives.
"(Speaking Farsi)"
Lauded as an "ingenious cinematic use" of the American stage, The Salesman's story-within-a-story
brings to light questions about violence against women, marriage, post-traumatic stress, death,
and the class system, and asks the audience to work through them as the film runs on.
Though The Salesman might've slipped past you, it certainly wasn't lost with critics,
landing itself the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film at the 89th Academy Awards.

Two Questions with Micaela Lumpkin, VP of Portfolio Term Loans - Duration: 4:54.
Welcome to Two Questions with Colony American Finance, where we ask team members two questions
about what they do, and real estate finance.
Today we get to sit down with Micaela Lumpkin,
VP of Term Loans at Colony American Finance, who started her career
at a large international law firm that specializes in finance.
Micaela, what are the benefits of a term loan to a borrower?
The benefits of term loans to a borrower are that it's a great product for somebody who has a portfolio of
stabilized assets that is looking for a long-term financing solution.
Term loans are 5 or 10-year loans that do end up getting securitized, but the product provides borrowers
with the ability to maintain a fair amount of operational flexibility
So it's a great product in that respect.
It's also a great product because our rates are really competitive. If a borrower has purchased their portfolio
in cash, it's a great way to pull some equity out of the portfolio or if you've already financed
it's a great way to refinance and get some equity out as well.
It's probably not a great product for people who are looking to
sell the majority of their portfolio in the short term, so really probably the perfect product for people who
have a number of different assets to finance, who are looking for a longer term financing solution,
who are looking for things at more attractive rates than what's generally available in the marketplace
which is a great reason to choose CAF.
What tips would you provide to future borrowers?
I think my top five borrower tips are probably that it makes a lot of sense to spend some time upfront
looking at your term sheet and really utilizing your originator as a resource
to make sure that you understand the loan and its terms
so that by the time you execute the term sheet, you have your expense deposit in,
and you're really ready for the kickoff call. The kickoff call is an all party call,
so we have council on the line, we've got title on the line and you really see the difference
between borrowers who have done a little more homework up front and have studied their term sheet
and asked the questions that they need to ask to really feel comfortable with the terms
so that by the time we get ready to kick off, it's a pretty seamless, easy process.
I think the second tip that I would probably give to most borrowers is to try to break up the process
into bite-size chunks for them and to work on something every single day.
So, it depends if you want to break up day one into
forming your Delaware LLC and using the vendors that we've recommended
to start the formation process and get your EIN together
and then the next day go ahead and upload leases and purchase contracts.
It makes it nice, we have wonderful checklists that they can go ahead and utilize
to just break things up so that they're doing things every single day and maintaining a timeline.
I think the third tip I'd probably
get council involved sooner rather than later. We have a lot of borrowers who decide not to use legal counsel
but when folks are getting involved, whether it's additional members or legal counsel,
at the end of the process it tends to delay things. My fourth tip, and probably
the most important, is--we've done this for a while, we've got a wonderful team
and it's using the team that we have as a resource.
Folks have been through this process so many different times that it's great to leverage that.
You've got a project coordinator, an underwriter, a closer
and we certainly don't skimp on the people that we assign to loans, and it's wonderful for borrowers to have
three different people that can really hold their hands and help them through the process
I think that the fifth tip I'd probably give borrowers is to
set a realistic timeline and shoot for a date, have a goal in mind, because that really drives the process
and it keeps everybody on the same page and it's
fun. This whole loan process doesn't have to be painful at all I mean,
we still close loans every single day and I think everybody still gets a thrill out of
having a loan get closed, so just maintaining a very
realistic timeline and making sure that we're all driving towards that goal
because it's it's a huge accomplishment, and it's great
When our borrowers go through it for the first time, I hope that they see that it can be a relatively short
simple, painless process and, that they get a great result.

Our Girlfriend Tag - Duration: 8:33.
hi Holly hey Veronica
so today we're gonna be doing the girlfriend tag so we
have a list of questions that we're just gonna go through and answer so that you
guys can get to know us and kind of what our channel is going to be about so the
first question is when and where did we [first] meet? So.. um.. that's a weird story so
initially you posted on the like class of pages at our school. And so I i was like "oh she
looks cool like. oh well add her" she you said something about gay things
So I was like "oh that she looks like a cool person I like her."
[I] didn't really think twice about it but I just added her on Facebook you know and then
I would see your posts all the time on Facebook
since we're Facebook friends. I said "oh she looks really cool". but I didn't ever
think that I would like meet. Yeah, I didn't think so either
um Veronica is a year above me at our University so I guess like she kind of
added me thinking oh well she seems like she's gonna be involved in a lot of
things and kinda would want to just see what I would be up to. And I didn't
really think that I would ever get to meet Veronica but then it was like
National Coming Out Day and our school had this like lunch gathering and we
both went to it and she, like, sat down across from me I like this table and I
saw her and I didn't really recognize her at first
I recognized Holly immediately. I was like "oh my God, it's that girl! whoa!"
I didn't remember what her name was but I was like oh my god it's her
yeah and I wasn't quite sure if it was you all I knew is that she was like
really pretty and from what I could hear her saying she was really intelligent
because they had like a lot of questions throughout the lunch and that they were
just like going through and she had a lot of good insight to give and yeah and
we didn't talk at all. We just sort of made eye contact throughout the
whole time. FLIRTY I contact. Yeah and I wouldn't
like keep the eye contact I just kept like me looking away yeah and then
She left and I was like "okay I'm never gonna see her again" it wasn't a big deal like
I just sort of forgot about it and then I guess a few weeks later I signed
up for like the app her which you guys probably know about it's just like an
app for lesbians to date on basically. Well, it's all kinds of people.
Women; female identified people and so we ended up like matching and then I
messaged you mm-hmm I mean you were like you were like oh hey I think I saw you
and I was like mm I do remember you and I knew I saw her but I didn't want to
make it obvious that I like knew who she was so I'm just like I think that I
might have met you. That's funny. And then I asked you to go to a cafe on campus
and so yeah our first date yeah so the next question was like where was our
first date and I was at a cafe on campus they day after the election yeah so it
was the day after the election and we were both really depressed and we almost
canceled the date like both of us but we both went and I was like I need
something happy in my life I need something to be excited about. And
like one of my friends that morning was like yeah but you know you have a date
later today like that'll put you in a good mood I was like "oh, I don't even
want to go". I was just so upset and little did I know, that it would be a
really really important, influential date. And, yeah.
So the next question is when/where was our first kiss?
so our first kiss was after a third date
yeah um and it was in my apartment it was like downstairs she was walking me
out and I was trying to kiss you all night but I got nervous and didn't and
so when I went to say goodbye to you I said "do you want to kiss?" and you went
"Ahhh" yeah and then we kissed and it was funny yeah
and that was our first kiss.
Yes.
So who said I love you first?
So, I said I love you first.
But!
But what?
I was gonna say it in that exact moment but you didn't. I didn't.
But, so, okay, so it's kind of
here's basically the gist of the story. We were in Chicago on spring break
and I knew that I loved Veronica probably a few weeks prior to this trip.
My whole plan was to tell her on the trip and it was literally the last day
of the trip so I had to say it like I wasn't leaving Chicago without saying it.
So one night we just like went to a few really cool places around the city and I
kept telling myself okay I'm gonna stay here I'm gonna stay here and then I just
didn't. And I was like I'll just stay to the next place for at and then the next
place and then ended up being like the last place we were gonna go to which was
the Chicago River Walk and I was going to say it. We kissed.
I was like I'm just gonna say it
then
And I went, I went, "hey guess what"
and I was like "what?" and I was like I love you
I love you too
What is my weirdest habit?
I think...your cleanliness
um well I think I think
that's what your friends would say. Your weirdest habit.. oh your weird Chapstick thing.
She puts on chapstick... hold on. Let me grab a chapstick.
This is worth it let me grab a chapstick
so she puts it up really high right and she goes in for it
and she puts it on the outside of her lips. On the outside.
So you know how I put on chapstick?
I go ON my lips okay and she goes she goes pretty much
make a certain I get chapped out outside of outer layer with my lips not on my
lips. It's not my fault. That's weird.
Your weirdest habit is...
haha everyone I don't have one.
No, no. Here's the weirdest habit.
I don't know if this is a habit but when you get dressed...
you look... no that's not...That you just take forever.
That's just a thing!
I don't. Holly, I don't take forever
it's not like - I literally only wear mascara
-oh it's not focused - but I only wear mascara. I don't put on a whole bunch of
makeup. I you should see me I have to work at 8:30. Sorry.
I have to work at 8:30 in the morning. Okay?
Sometimes I don't even get out of bed until 8:07.
what's your major
so I am a nursing major and I'm a tourism hospitality management major
I'm a nursing school and if anyone's a nursing major then you understand what I
mean when I say that it's an incredibly difficult major so based on the
experiences that I have I'm gonna be making some videos around tips to
survive nursing school for sure
and are you gonna be making any videos about STHM?
we'll see. we'll see. see what happens. whatever I feel like
if I learnsomething neat then, yeah, maybe I'll share it with y'all
but I think we're just really excited yeah to do this - document a lot of
stuff and discuss a lot of really cool things and hopefully be able to like
help people along the way.
If not I think it'll help us to see anything to see
each other and ourselves individually grow as people. Yeah yeah
Wherever life takes us.
alright, so, thanks guys. I think we're probably gonna be uploading most of our
videos on Sundays okay that's a pretty good schedule we'll stick with
sounds good okay
Okay BYE!
[Us messing around but not making any noise]

BREAKING: FBI Agent Who Killed Obama's Enemy Charged For His Crime | Top Stories Today - Duration: 3:13.
A real instance of "hands up don't shoot"
has been ignored, all because the victim was white.
W. Joseph Astarita, an FBI agent involved in the shooting of Robert "LaVoy" Finicum
last year, has been indicted on five counts.
The agent is charged with three counts of making false statements and two counts of
obstructing justice (via The Oregonian).
Citizens for Constitutional Freedom occupied the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Oregon
last year to protest the Bureau of Land Management's control over what they considered to be state
land.
The protest also had roots in the unfair treatment of the Hammonds, father and son ranchers from
Oregon.
They owned land that the Bureau of Land Management confiscated (via The Daily Wire).
The federal government had been purchasing land in the areas surrounding the Hammond's
ranch, restricting their access to grazing land and water in an attempt to force the
ranchers to sell their land.
The Hammonds were charged with arson over two fires they started on their own land,
with the permission of the Bureau of Land Management.
However, the flames grew and burned almost 140 acres of Federal land between them.
The Hammond family successfully doused the fires, and no firefighters were required to
respond to the scene.
Still, the state sought terrorism charges for the arson carrying a minimum of five years
in prison.
The government also won the right of refusal for the Hammonds' property, succeeding in
acquiring their land.
The Bundy family was sympathetic to the Hammond's as they have also been battling the Bureau
of Land Management for years.
Ammon Bundy led the protest and asked LaVoy Finicum to serve as the group's spokesperson.
The Wildlife Refugee was being held by protestors for weeks before the fatal shooting and protesters
were allowed to come and go as they pleased.
However, on January 26th, police attempted to arrest Finicum as he was leaving the property.
Finicum tried to avoid the police– starting a chase.
Police forced him off the road at a road block.
Finicum attempted to exit his vehicle with his arms outstretched, surrendering to the
police.
Agent Joseph Astarita shot at him twice.
Both shots missed Finicum, but one ricocheted off the truck striking Ryan Bundy.
Finicum waded through the snow and was shot three times.
Police claim he was reaching for a weapon.
Agent Astarita has been charged with lying about his involvement in the shooting.
The agent initially told supervising FBI agents that he had not fired any shots.
In reality, Astarita fired the shots that escalated the situation.
It is not clear if Finicum was reaching for his gun or was struggling to maintain his
balance in the snow.
What is clear, is that FBI agents escalated the situation and fired upon a suspect with
his hands up.
The Federal government wanted the protesters out of their hair, and they killed their spokesman
to send a message.
Do you think this was a political assassination?
Please share this and tell us what you think!
