Snack Attack Samurai

A man is standing in the middle of a weight room eating a bag of Doritos. One of the mans friends walks by and is offered some of the chips. The friend takes a handful and replies with a "Thanks". The man then says "No problem. I snuck these out of Tim's locker." The man's friend then spits the Doritos out of his mouth and says "This is bad. Tim loves Doritos." Now yelling "Hide these. "We've got to get out of here before...." Then out of nowhere comes a flying Dorito that ends up in the friends neck. The friend the whispers "Tim" and falls to the ground. The man looks at his friend on the ground and then turns his head to see Tim dressed in Samurai armour that is completely made of Doritos. The man is now screaming as Samurai Tim is running straight towards him.
I think that the point of this video was to show how protective people are of their Doritos. I have no ideal how they were able to make that Samurai dorito costume but it was amazing.

Uchimura defends All-around title

Japanese gymnast Kohei Uchimura was crowned World Champion for the second consecutive year over Germany’s Philipp Boy and the USA’s Jonathan Horton. The Japanese athlete put on a magnificent display of skill completely devoid of mistakes. Although suffering from a sore shoulder Uchimura appeared strong and consistent all throughout this event, having qualified far ahead of the field. Uchimura took the lead after rotation 4 and did not let it slip away from him after that. With high difficulty and artistry, the world’s leading gymnast proved his excellence yet again. He topped the ranking on Floor, came in second on Pommel Horse, Still Rings and Vault, third on Parallel Bars and fourth on Horizontal Bar.
I just have to say that Kohei Uchimura is a boss. He comes in to this competition with a gold medal from the previous championships, and an injured shoulder. You know your a boss when you can win under that kind of pressure and pain

Bud Light Swear Jar

In this video a man in an office walks by a secretary and notices a priculiar looking jar on her desk. When he asks what the jar is for, the secretary responds by saying "Thats a swear jar. Every time someone swears you put in quarter in it." The man then asks "Who gets the money?" The secretary says "It is use to by something for the office. Like a case of Bud Light." The man the curses and put a quarter in the jar. All around the office people are greeting eachother with curse words. Some workers won't even respond if a swear word is not said. Even the owner of the company is doing his best to ensure that every sentence he says is filled with curses. All this to allow the swear jar to becomefilled with money. In the end all their swearing raised enough money to by the office a case of Bud Light.
There weren't any special effects in this video. Just some different shots of around the office. But what it lacked in special effects, it made up for in humor and origionality.

Canada awarded bronze after Nigerian fails dope test

A third Nigerian runner has failed a doping test at the Commonwealth Games and been stripped of two silver medals. Folashade Abugan tested positive for a steroid the morning after closing ceremony of the New Delhi event. She won silver medals in the 400 metre and 4x400 metre relay. The ruling elevatedEngland to the silver medal position in the relay and Canada the bronze. Two other Nigerian runners tested positive to a banned stimulant methylhexaneamine during the Games. Osayomi Oludamola was stripped of a gold medal in the women’s 100 metres and Samuel Okon, who was sixth in the final of the men’s 110-metre hurdles, was also disqualified. Nigerian officials at the Commonwealth Games said they were investigating the spate of doping findings. A Nigerian athletics official said every athlete who prepared for the New Delhi Games in Nigeria had undergone out-of-competition testing.
I think that it is very ignorant of thes athletes to use preformance inhancing drugs. It ruins the whole point of competion. It's supposed to be human VS. human, not drug VS. human. They are lucky to just be stripped of their medals and not banned from future competion.

2008 Superbowl Commercial, Doritos: "Mouse Trap"

In this commercial a man appears to come home from work with a bag of groceries. He puts the bag on the table and pulls out of it a bag of Doritos and a mouse trap. He then takes one of the nacho chips and cuts off a small piece that he inserts into the mouse trap as bait. He grabs the rest of the bag and chair, and waits infront of a mouse hole where he planted the trap. The man stares at the wall for a while and then desides to start eating the chips. Just as he pulls out a hand full of nachos, a gigantic man sized mouse breakes through the wall and tackles the man. The mouse then sits ontop of the man beating him vigorously.
I really liked how they ended the boring monotone commercial with something unexpected. The giant mouse was something completely origional.

Italy Vs Serbia Match Suspended

In this video a Euro 2012 Qualifier game between Italy and Siberia was suspended do to rioting fans. Police officers entered the stadium, but could do little to stop the riot. The video shows fans throwing smoke bombs and flaming objects on to the field and in the stands. Thankfully fire fighters were sent in to put out those fires. Three men then climbed the railing that separates the field from the stands and started to egg the other fans on. The three men threw road flares and held up flags while the soccer players were warming up. It was not long before the soccer players and referies left the field.
I think that these men did an extremely stupid thing. They paided all that money for tickets to the game just so that they could start a riot and end up suspending the game. They do not even deserve to be called fans  because they have no respect for the game or the players.

Daniel Igali preaches wrestling gospel

In this article Canada's first Olympic and world champion wrestler Daniel Igali talks about his effort to build a wrestling program in his home country Nigeria. It was at the 1994 Commonwealth Games that Igali made the decision to leave the Nigerian team to stay in Canada. These days he spends nine months a year working with the Nigerian wrestling team,while still maintaining his home in Surrey, B.C. These Commonwealth games have been very productive for Daniel's athletes. They’ve collected two gold, two silver and six bronze medals with two day of competition remaining. He tells all his athletes that if they want to prepare for the Olympics, they have to start here. Igali's wrestlers show a lot of respect towards him. He says “They almost believe your word as God’s word, they know where you’re coming from. It carries a lot of respect. If you tell them to do 100 push-ups, they believe you so religously they do 110.”
I think that Damiel Igali is doing a great thing by going back to his native country to help there wrestlers. It really shows that he cares for the sport because he is doing all he can to make himself and others better.

Langur Monkeys at Common Wealth Games

Trained langur monkeys are being used to scarre off dogs, snkes, and even other monkeys. Langur monkeys are said to be very intelligent but also aggressive and territorial, making them very effective in keeping other animals away from a given area. These monkeys are also feared throughout Dehli. They had attacked the mayor in 2007, causing him to fall from his balcony to his death. There is a team of 10 monkeys, four of them will be posted outside the boxing complex with their handlers, while another four will patrol the hockey complex, two are on standby in case of of an emergency. The athletes do not seem to be bothered by the monkeys. Canadian field hockey player said "I thought they were OK, they were fine."
I think that it was a good ideal for them to use the Langur monkeys as a way of protecting the athletes form other harmfull animals. As long as these monkeys are kept under control, I think that the athletes will have a muck more comfortable stay in New Dehli.

Old Spice- Blocker:15

The video starts with a large muscular black man screamimg "old spice odor blocking bodywash". Then out of nowhere the word "odor" appears several time. The man then attacks the words and screams "Block!" as if he were a martial artist attcking a wooden board. He punches, left and right, up and down, and even throws in some elbows. He kicks, knees, and uses his but, all of this to destroy the word "odor". His head then enlarges to the point where it explods. After which the man goes right back to puching the words. When all the words are destroyed, the man screams that "old spice will block odor for 16 hours!!" as he flexes his pectorals.The video then cuts to an image of a clock that says "16 hours B.O. blocker". The video finishes with the clock exploding.
In the video they seemed to cram as much special effects as they could into the 18 seconds of content. As I mentioned before there were lots of explosions, floating words, and some crazy sound effects. I think that in the video they were trying to conivnce men that if they bought Old Spice they would look like and be as strong as the man in the commercial.
