Bought a copy of the DVD at Best Buy...the Steel Box 2 disc set. Came with the Unrated and Theatrical Version of the movie. Plus it also came with a digital copy of the movie to put on a PC or Desktop. It also came with an $8.50 cent ticket discount for HitMan....

the No. 4 movie still rocks along.....from start to finish. Glad I bought it. :woot:

Wow, that's a great fucking deal. Are you going to go see Hitman?

I still haven't gotten around to seeing Live Free or Die Hard, but Die Hard with a Vengance was my favorite movie as a kid.

I wish I was a riddling criminal master mind.

It was good, but I'm holding out till I know for sure I'm getting an unrated version as well. Don't know what they're selling in the UK at the moment. I've read conflicting reviews...

Would you elaborate on that, please, if you get a chance?

Is the digital copy in "DVD" format or is it a DivX or a mp4? What size is it? Do you have to install special software to enable getting it to your PC and/or playing it? Tia!

Q: I can’t get my Windows Media DRM upgrade to work properly. What am I doing wrong?
A: First, ensure that you have a connection to the Internet, which is required to be Windows Media compliant, as well as to validate your serial code. If you are connected to the Internet and still cannot get your Windows Media update, please visit the Support > Windows Media Player section for additional troubleshooting tips.

Q: Does FOX use DRM (Digital Rights Management) on their Digital Copy titles?
A: Yes, currently FOX uses Microsoft Windows Media DRM.

Q: Is Digital Copy available to transfer to my iPod, PSP or other portable media player?
A: At this time, Digital Copy is only available to transfer to Windows PlaysForSure devices. Please check with your device manufacturer to verify PlaysForSure content, or go to www.playsforsure.com. Additionally, compatible players must have video playback capabilities for protected WMV files of at least 800 Kbps.

This digital copy is a nice start but still has a ways to go imo.

But hey, free is free.

So, is it a bad sign when www.playsforsure.com returns this?

Understanding the Direct Relationship Between Your Diet and Cancer

Although the impact is difficult to measure, it is evident that diet is a factor when considering most, if not all types of cancer. Furthermore, diet may also be effective in preventing cancer. There is no concrete explanation of the relationship between cancer and your diet; however it would be obviously beneficial to maintain a well-balanced and nutritious diet. The insight regarding the diet- cancer link first appeared in 1913. Until recently, the phenomenon had been amazingly ignored. The scientist became involved, mainly with the assistance of animals, to determine the relationship. Coincidently, the risk for cancer will certainly decrease if you were to consistently eat healthy meals as well as take vitamin and/or mineral supplements. It is extremely important to live a healthy lifestyle.

There are obvious techniques that people should live by such as regular screening and self-exams that is crucial for identifying potential cancer cells. Healthcare physicians recommend that you actively practice these techniques, yet you must also obtain knowledge of the risk factors that contribute to cancer. For many years, the National Cancer Institute has promoted a program that encourages Americans to eat more fruit and vegetables. Unfortunately, 60%-70% of cancer is the result of dietary risk factors. Extensive research has also concluded that one-third of cancer deaths within the United States are due to nutritional factors.

The suggested risk factors include being overweight or obese, having a low intake of fruits and vegetables, low physical activity and smoking or alcohol abuse. Therefore, cancer is believed to be related and associated with an individual’s lifestyle. Specifically, the American Cancer Society has estimated that women who are 40% or more over the ideal body weight have a 55% greater cancer risk. Contrarily, the men who are 40% over weight have a 33% greater risk. Ironically, it has been noted that cancer occurs at different rates in different countries. This merely suggests that people from different countries have different eating patterns.

No matter what the consensus is on the relationship between diet and cancer, fiber is actually agreed upon as one of the most important preventive measure to cancer. With an increase in fiber intake, it is possible to consume less fat and calories. The fiber-rich foods enhances the intensity of our diets and contributes to satiety. You are able to obtain fiber in a variety of ways. Fiber is found in vegetables, fruits and grains. These items are discharged in two categories: soluble and insoluble. Ideally, it is recommended to increase the intake of breads, cereals, legumes (beans and peas) and of course, more fruits and vegetables.

Although it is highly sensitive at this point, the American Institute for Cancer Research has identified foods that are promising for preventing cancer. First of all, the institute suggests that beans and legumes may lower risk of prostate, breast and pancreatic cancer. Berries are expected to lower the risk of skin, bladder, and lung or breast cancer. More over, the cruciferous vegetables possibly lower the contingency for lung, stomach, colorectal, prostate and bladder cancer. Cancer of the bladder, colon, stomach, pancreas and esophagus may be prevented by consuming green tea. Finally, prostate cancer may be avoided by eating tomatoes. Additionally, it is suggested by the American Institute for Cancer Research that consuming whole grains may lower the risks for all cancers.

In conclusion, there are five dietary guidelines that may save your life from Cancer. It is recommended that you eat at least five servings of fruits and vegetables everyday. And again, you should eat high fiber foods to include limiting the fat intake. You should always stay or become physically fit. Last, but not least, limit the consumption of alcohol. Bottom line, improving your diet and overall lifestyle generally protects your body against cancer.

Home Alone is like the children's version of Die Hard... I watched both in a row and came to this conclusion shortly thereafter.

The man and I just watched this. It was really good, the pacing, action scenes, plot, everything was pretty well done.
I was a huge fan of Die Hard With a Vengeance though, so I guess I'm a fangirl.
