    @zwer:

    Yeah, he would have.

    Professional sport is extremely tight at the top and athletes, if they want to be the best, will do whatever it takes to get an edge. Sports aren't drug free, they're just (more) free of banned substances.

    I for myself was participating in 3 olympics , made a fifth place and made a medal in worlds!…and yes there were rumours that some of my opponents were using drugs. But in my expierences most of them were clean.

    I was never taking drugs and always have believed in a fair competition. Otherwise i would have been a fraudster!

    You shouln't put all sportsman under general suspicion but those who were caught cheating should be punished hardly!!!!!

    Just my two cents!

      I wonder what the statistics are of those who are on the juice who win gold, and those who don't place.

            Have to agree with Giles…

            How he behaved and handled things is unforgivable. I'm ok with Zabel, Ullrich and a lot of the others - doping in professional cycling was undeniable for the longest time.

            I hope he gets taken to court by his sponsors...

              Does anyone know a simple method for editing a video file so that I can adjust the playback speed so that is faster, please?

                hectic, on OSX, in iMovie, import your click, then either through Clip menu (@ top), select Fast Forward, which enables up to 10x speed increase. (10x * 10x = 100x speed up if you need to go really fast).

                  Follow up, if you're not on OSX, and/or don't have iMovie, and the clip's not too large and you know how fast/long/short you want it to be in total, feel free to PM and I'll do it and send back.

                        Hey guys, I'm kind of a history nerd. I ordered my first pair of ODs and I was wondering what the history behind the overdye was. Like did Haraki-san come up with the idea or what?

                          Haraki-San definitely did not come up with the idea.  Dyeing fibers has been around for more than 5000 years, so who really knows when the practice of dyeing something twice first occurred

                            Here is an article about dyeing. It mentions overdye used by ancient fucking Greeks to produce different colors.  A little more google searching probably will yield more results but I'm cocked and I think I need to go to bed

                              ^ Thanks for the info!

                              What's the history of it for Iron Heart? Did Haraki-san decide to make an OD jean or did someone else? How did it come about to make a jean like this? Info like that I would find very interesting 🙂

                                          I always thought going off half-cocked meant acting rashly, but apparently you're right, Doug.  Learn something new every day.
