How can there be pics of Jake yesterday sans shirt and not today? Austin somehow finds a role, or maybe just loses his shirt between rehearsal and actual filming, that has him end half dressed. No apologies, cause this would make anyone misspell and use bad grammar.
Casting head shot
Wait I need to get to get this off before the camera start to roll
Hmmm Yes, that's better. It says so much more about the internal struggle of the character.
Of course it's all about my dedication to my craft. What else would it be?OMG Olympic Moment
Triathlon
The first triathlon was held on Fiesta Island, California, USA in 1974 as the San Diego University Track Club ventured into new forms of instilling interest in their training programme while inventing “cross-over training” at the same time.As the ultimate endurance test, triathlon requires athletes to excel at the three “classic sports” of swimming, cycling and running.
The sport requires intense training and discipline at the elite level; many people participate in triathlons because it fits in with a healthy lifestyle. They’re able to train while still pursuing careers and families.
Triathlon made its Olympic debut at the 2000 Summer Olympic Games in Sydney after it was awarded full medal status six years earlier at the IOC congress in Paris. The international popularity of triathlon really started to grow after its inclusion on the Olympic programme. By 2003, ITU’s World Cup circuit expanded to 18 races in 14 different countries.
OMG's take. These two have mastered all three of these sports as we have seen. Of course the most famous Triathlon is the Ironman. Who do you think would get that title?
I want to do one of those triathlons where one person does the swim, another the biking, and a third person does the run. Has anyone else heard of these?
ReplyDeleteThere is one up here in MA, a friend of mine was going to do one. Couldn't do the running because of knee surgery, was the swimmer for the group.
ReplyDeleteWhy do I love any pic of Austin from JFC?
ReplyDeleteOpenly gay diver Matt Mitcham starts competing today on the 10 m platform. He competed earlier this week on the 3 m springboard but did not make it out of the semifinals. Go Matt!
ReplyDeleteI love that first picture of Austin, and the others aren't half bad either. ;)
ReplyDeleteTriathlons fascinate me, I can't imagine doing all 3 of those activities one after the other. I've never heard of the kind where you divy up the activities though.
The Blurry Line between Male and Female Athletes
ReplyDeleteI love that first picture of Austin. I have never seen it belore. I also love the second pic. How I would love to nibble.
ReplyDeleteGo Matt Go.
After the preliminary, Matt's in second place!
ReplyDeleteI love the pic of Austin taking his shirt off in the kitchen!
ReplyDeleteAnd of course, handsome Jake rising up out of the sea around Maui like Neptune. Those arms! ;)
Santogold reminds me of Cindy Wilson or Kate Pierson of the B-52's. :)
I agree, Go Matt, Go! Some of the diving has been spectacular!
Oh, G*d, I love the last pic of Austin surfing too, what a couple of sea gods Jake and Austin are. Must be the ocean breezes in the air that are getting to me. :)
ReplyDelete^^sorry, that was me.
ReplyDeleteWOW! Great news about Matt. I hope he can hold on for a medal. Of course we know China will win the gold. Their divers are spectacular.
ReplyDeleteIf this baby rumor was true it would rank up there with Loretta Young and Clark Gable. Loretta got pregnant and hid the baby, made up some story about adoption.
ReplyDeleteRe: The Blurry Line between Male and Female Athletes
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting that article Wicked. Very moving. I cant imagine what life was like for her on a personal level. That must be extremely embarrassing for the athletes too. I wonder who gets to decide who has to take these "tests".
SpecialK you might be right about the Hannah Montana Best of Both Worlds thing. Check out Defamer

Norway takes on Russia tomorrow for the gold in women's team handball
ReplyDeleteGo Gro and Katja!
Clarity, I read an article where they interviewed a female athlete who failed one of those sex chromosome tests. Her name was omitted for her protection. She said she had no idea that she was anything other than a woman and was devastated. There was nothing about her outward appearance that would have tipped anyone off. But she had some kind of chromosomal abnormality so she was not allowed to compete.
Wicked, you who know i love Gro and Katja, i`m so excited for tomorrow (nervous is the word i would have used if i was completely honest;) They`re meeting Russia in the final. Hoping for norway`s first olympic gold-medal in handball(begs). They haven`t been in the olympic final since 1992. They lost the final though. Ok, i was very patriotic now, but you americans are too, so...:)
ReplyDeleteBeat me, of course, but still: damn!!!;)
ReplyDeleteOf course the most famous Triathlon is the Ironman. Who do you think would get that title?
ReplyDeleteBet they wouldn't mind sharing the title.
The Informers news from Ain't It Cool News
ReplyDeleteThankfully, THE INFORMERS appears to be a much easier sell than his previous pictures (sex and nihilism and Amber Heard strike me as a winning combination). I wouldn't be surprised if this turns up at the Toronto Film Festival next month.

Patriots vs. Eagles Preseason Football Game Tonight.
ReplyDeleteSo Wicked Eagles or Olympics?
Spesh Wicked can't answer right now, she's setting up her Tivo.
ReplyDeletethis reminded me of the grammar police post
ReplyDeletegrammar nazis
Go Matthew. Go USA. Go Eagles.
ReplyDeleteDear Ted:
ReplyDeleteWhat do you think of Jake G's new princely body? Hottie or nottie? I'd have liked it if only he had chosen to reveal it in the context of the movie and without doing a staged photo op with Reese in the middle of the desert. Everything they do together is too calculated and publicity conscious for my taste.

Dear Go Jake or Go Home:
Jakey-Poo's ripped bod might be the only way to get us to one of his flicks. Rendition anyone?
Looks like the instant focus group that is ONTD is echoing alot of other people's views on Jake's new look (chemically enhanced or otherwise).
ReplyDeleteban the beefcake
The Jake people want = ectomorph
ReplyDeleteThe Jake people get = mesomorph
I think Austin = ectomorph; Jake = genuine mesomorph and what we have now is musclomorph. Whatever it is it's not his finest look IMO.
ReplyDeleteWow, hope Informers gets to TIFF!
what we have now is musclomorph
ReplyDeletewhat we have now is reekeomorph and its definitely his worst.look.ever.
reekeomorph = Gyllenrigormortis
ReplyDeletecurrent Jake career reading on the reekeometer: getting damn near close to 'do not recessitate'
ReplyDeleteGyllenreekermortis
ReplyDeleteIts Obama/Biden 2008
ReplyDeleteSo Wicked Eagles or Olympics?
ReplyDeleteOlympics, no question. It only happens every 4 years and I just don't care about the preseason. As long as we lose about half of our games, it's good to me. Winning or losing any more than that makes me nervous.
I was very pissed off at the coverage of the diving last night. They showed barely any of Matt Mitcham's dives and focused on the dives of one of the Chinese men but not the other. I liked the other one better. Of course, we saw ALL of the Americans' dives.
