Already established, the Flash has a force field that gets more powerful the faster he runs. It also extends to people that he might carry at super speed. Have any of you read the comics?

For the Flash, it's been explained his speed has zero to do with metabolic processes, but everything to do with tapping the speed force. He expends way more energy than he can eat at super speed.

Screw that. Somehow, they got access to some of my company's financial data, and posted that online without permission.

I've done this before. Everyone got a 12% pay bump for the day based on a certain production level. The problem with this is that it became too important. So if a job is taking more time than it should, they were like fuck customer satisfaction, I'm rushing onto the next job. They cut...

Is there any money in the gym business? Every gym I looked at had books that were cooked. They'd show they were making 100k-300k a year per location, but when digging in, I could see they were breaking even at best.

I shouldn't have to do bonuses. But on the other hand, I'm considering them because my employees are getting all sorts of offers right now. In my industry, the smaller companies are only open May through August. They'll offer my guys $3-4 more an hour, then they'll lay them off the minute...

I liked that movie infinitely more than his Origins movie.

I read all of the X books as a kid, and still have them. I can't remember how they beat Apocalypse. He's insanely powerful, and they'd need an Omega level mutant on the team to make a dent. I've been contemplating reading the old issues. I think he made his first appearance in X Factor.

I thought so too, when I read it as a kid. Then he started killing powerful mutants in one hit, and disposed of Juggernaut very quickly. I remember him defeating the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants (killing a few of them), and then fighting all of the X Men to a standstill. He even put...

I'm not sure what you are arguing. In the comic, future Sentinels have evolved to the point where mutants can no longer handle them. They portrayed this in the movie. Pretty much the only chance the X Men had was to get them before they evolved to that point.

Sorry, but in the comic book, one future Sentinel could destroy an X team by itself. Google "nimrod sentinel marvel" and read. They've evolved that far. Nimrod once owned the Entire Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, X Men and Juggernaut within two issues. And that was just one Sentinel...

They may have been showing him as a kid. Remember, he has total molecular manipulation as his power, so he'd be able to control that.

His scenes in the movie were way more interesting than he ever was in the comics. In the comics, he's arrogant and aloof, being that he's Magneto's son and all.

The only "new" manifestation of her powers is her ability to fry electronics when she phases through them. In the future, there were new manifestations of their powers. Sunspot can't fly in the present, for one.

Has Colossus even spoke in these movies? And yes, when we got done, I said to my wife that they finally showed Magneto as the badass he is.

That it was. I was a bit thrown off at the future scenes, but once I got over that, it was one of my favorite superhero movies. Maybe better than Avengers and the new Batman series. Quicksilver was awesome, I wish there was more of him in this movie.

In May, we are on track to do 100k in sales, and if you add back in owner discretionary expenses, make about 40k in profit. So profit margin is roughly 40%. I can't wait to see what the peak months (June-Sept) will look like. I've started giving raises out, if I lose any key people, that...

A combination of desperation and greed will make good people do anything. I've seen people claiming to be good Christian folk trying to defraud the buyers for a half a million. One time, we were going to buy a business that did a lot of work for the government (like 90%). The seller failed to...

The thing I avoided when I looked at businesses were ones where they were normalized for having a competent owner, or when they take labor out of expenses to get a higher net earnings. For the latter, they do that because the plan is for you to replace the labor your employees did. Anytime I...

There's a saying when buying a business, is that something is going to be misrepresented, but which way? Either the business sucks, and they are trying to hide it, or the business is so profitable, that the seller is not paying taxes. Make sure you get the latter. I've heard of instances...

I looked at buying a chain of gyms in Atlanta a few years back. We were attempting to buy three, and eventually all five from the owner. When we were doing our due diligence, where we had 30 days to go over the books, we found something astonishing. Their tax records supported that it was...

Every word of this post is truth.

So, comparing Q1 2014 and 2013, sales are up almost double through the end of April. Last year, we did 160k in service fees over those months, this year was 300. Mind you, that's the slowest quarter of the year for us. Four years ago, in FOH, I posted that the goal was to do $1 million in...

That's for comics, not for games, TV shows and movies. It's pretty clear the net is wider for other types of media.

They just showed an interview with LeBron talking about how the players are going to spend whatever money it takes to get this guy gone.

There will be no bargain price on a team in L.A., when the Milwaukee Bucs just went for $550 million. The taint is gone with a new owner, and it will be priced accordingly. You'll have different groups get into a bidding war, which will drive the price up. I don't see less than $700 million...

He owns it for the status of being an owner. That's over, he's not allowed in the building now. In economic terms, his mouth just cost him $100 million. Was it worth it?

Donald Sterling selling clippers: He could lose $100 million

ESPN is reporting that the entire NBA was talking boycott, not just the Clippers. I just saw an interview with the Player Rep, and he let it be known to the Commissioner that the all of the players in the NBA (collectively) were holding open the "Launch Nukes" option, after Sterling made his...

You act like this happens every year in the NBA. It doesn't. When your NBA Player Rep comes out and says that all the players on your teams are going to boycott a game in the playoffs (unless he is banned), you better fix this. This wasn't just the public that was outraged. Your entire labor...

Unbelievable that you are sandy vag over this douchebag. No one should feel sorry for him. You can't represent a sports team and hold beliefs like that. He'll still make an unbelievable ROI on the team, that he bought for $14m and will get 700m. No one can take his money from him, but he...

Yup. That record was over the 30 years he owned the team too.

The reality is that, in these situations, it's more embarrassing to the NBA, and not worth it to keep him. When you have the players talking about boycotting, Civil Rights groups talking about picketing, and advertisers fleeing, that's not good for business. The NBA will find a way to get rid...

The Clippers have lost Amtrak, Red Bull, Kia and a slew of other companies as a sponsor. Do they have anyone left? The team is worth more with him gone, time to sell.

In my area, there are no comic book stores any more. There is one place that carries a limited selection of Marvel and DC. Torrents has pretty much every book in real time. Too bad Marvel and DC have not embraced the digital age.

As said before, there was nothing kind in that lecture, just manipulation. He realizes that the kid is still pliable, and he's telling him to listen to his counsel, now and forever.

This show keeps getting better. Wow.

So I just hired another guy today, and the crews are going to do just under $5k in service fees today. Capacity for regular work in a month is now about $110k.

Tonight is Ultimate Warrior Tribute Night on RAW.

I look at customer reviews when deciding on stuff like this, but take them with a grain of salt. Personally, I'd rather run my own adwords campaign.Yodle Reviews | Yodle.com Consumer Reviews on SiteJabber Whenever I see reviews about people stating that they got fake leads, that's something...
