An Olympic athlete has a matter of seconds to make a lifetime of hard work and preparation count. To have made it even this far, competitors have spent countless hours in the gym, working through the kind of training regimen that makes your routine look like a day at the beach.

A new documentary may shed light on these possibilities. For your consideration, we present the (NSFW) trailer:
What defines a Canadian? We’re sick of hearing about coffee, beer, syrup and our most popular interjection, because surely there’s more to Canada than that. But apparently hockey sticks may be the best indicator of all. Canadians choose mostly left-handed hockey sticks, and Americans prefer right-handed hockey sticks. Can you solve the riddle?
Cultural commentators are falling over each other to congratulate themselves on finding Mad Men vixen Christina Hendricks beautiful. Really, was there ever any doubt?
