Prize #1: Ripped Off: Madoff and the Scamming of America
List price: $19.95

See the personal chaos brought onto individual investors by Bernie Madoff, a popular and trusted investor from middle-class Queens, New York – and alleged Ponzi schemer – as experts dissect his $65 billion scam, from its humble beginnings to its stunning downfall, in RIPPED OFF: MADOFF AND THE SCAMMING OF AMERICA. With the help of expert commentary and firsthand accounts from Madoff’s victims, HISTORY™ compares and contrasts this most recent fraud with other Ponzi schemes throughout history, while exploring the economic and historical climates in which they appeared.

Wanna know the stories behind one of the greatest scams in American history? This will fill you in, disgust you and amaze you all in one story. A fascinating DVD. – on 205th magazine

Prize #2: A Few Seconds of Panic
List Price: $16.00

In his New York Times bestseller Word Freak, Stefan Fatsis infiltrated the insular world of competitive Scrabble players. With A FEW SECONDS OF PANIC: A 5-Foot-8, 170-Pound, 43-Year-Old Sportswriter Plays in the NFL, Fatsis raises the ante (and his risk of injury) by infiltrating a strikingly different subculture—the NFL. With unprecedented access to the Denver Broncos’ players, coaches, and facilities, Fatsis not only provides a fascinating inside-look at a storied sports franchise but also an insightful glimpse into the life of a professional athlete.

Not only does Stefan Fatsis live the dream of many NFL fans by having the opportunity to play with the Broncos, but he takes readers to the places usually forbidden to them: the locker room, the offices where key decisions are made, and into the minds of the players and coaches. A FEW SECONDS OF PANIC unveils the life of a modern pro athlete and the workings of the NFL as no book has before.

Boy, times sure have changed since George Plimpton played with the Lions over 45 years ago. This is a must-read for any football fan. – on 205th magazine

Prize: Road Trip – Beer Pong
List Price: $29.99

Three college roommates are in for the ride of their lives in the most awesome road trip ever when ROAD TRIP – BEER PONG is served. The over-the-top follow up to the smash hit comedy Road Trip, ROAD TRIP – BEER PONG is the hilarious story of friends with a thirst for competition who are determined to win the National Collegiate Beer Pong Championship. But their path to glory is filled with unplanned pit stops including a family of frisky strippers, a hitchhiking, gun toting beauty and a bus load of Chastity Until Marriage girls. An insanely irreverent ode to everyone’s favorite drinking game, ROAD TRIP – BEER PONG has it all: hot girls, hysterical comedy, wild parties and random incriminating acts. The unrated version is even crazier, sexier and more jaw-dropping as the outrageous adventure gets even raunchier.

List price: $29.98

A brilliant killer with a score to settle is putting Detective Danny Fisher to the ultimate test when 12 Rounds explodes with an unrated “Extreme Cut” June 30 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. WWE Superstar John Cena (The Marine) stars as Fisher, a New Orleans police officer playing a vicious game of cat and mouse after spoiling the multi-million dollar heist plan of an Irish arms dealer. When the thief’s girlfriend is accidentally killed in the melee he vows revenge, breaking out of prison and putting Fisher through a series of mental and physical challenges in order to save his kidnapped fiancée. With the clock ticking, Danny struggles to keep his focus as he races through The Big Easy completing each dangerous game and hoping he is still standing at the end of 12 Rounds.

The Blu-ray disc and DVD are loaded with special features including both the theatrical and extended “Extreme Cut” of the film, commentary by Harlin, Cena and first-time writer Daniel Kunka, two behind-the-scenes featurettes, two alternate endings, a never-before “Cena” gag reel and more.

Waking up in a dark room after being knocked unconscious in a car accident and her young son nowhere in sight, Jamie Taylor (Melissa George), realizes that she has been kidnapped. Her masked captor (Oded Fehr) informs her that if she ever hopes to see her son alive again, she must help his mysterious employers. However, they’re not looking to collect a ransom; instead, the man reveals that Jamie’s husband is secretly a brutal killer who recently stole millions from his bosses. The organization will stop at nothing to retrieve the missing money, and they think that their captive is the one person who can help them find it. Chained to a grate in a cold, dark room, with her marriage upended, her son’s life in jeopardy and no idea who she can trust, Jamie must attempt to piece together clues from the life she thought she knew in order to escape this nightmare and save the lives of her beloved family.

Prize: American Originals Megaset
List Price: $99.95

They’re a special breed – guys who go to work in the morning never knowing if they’ll make it home alive that night. Every day is a struggle just to survive. For the loggers, wedged on a mountainside with behemoth trees, 60-ton machines, and razor-sharp chainsaws, the slightest miscalculation can spell disaster. The ice road truckers, steering gigantic 16-wheelers over frozen roads, face the specter of crashing through the surface, frostbite, or worse. And residents of the forbidding, icy north battle weather and unforgiving terrain just to eke out an existence. They all need every bit of ingenuity, grit, and know-how they can muster just to stay alive – at least until the next gig. (More details here.)

14 DVDs! Over 37 hours of action! The ultimate DVD set for Guys.

Prize #2 & #3: The Man’s Book
List Price: $23.99

Being modern and manly in today’s world isn’t always easy. Do you know how to tie a bow-tie, mix a martini, or make a potato gun? Do you know when to get married and how to break up, or the difference between a bock beer and a bitter? Do you know which urinal to choose or how to start a fire with a Coke can? The answers to every man’s burning questions are within these pages, from the morning wet shave to the whiskey night-cap, from hunting deer with a .30-06 to wooing women like 007. At a time when the sexes are muddled and masculinity is marginalized, The Man’s Book unabashedly celebrates maleness. Organized by subject in a man-logical way, it’s the go-to guide for anyone with a Y chromosome.

Prize #1: The Wrestler
List Price: $29.98

Mickey Rourke gives the performance of a lifetime as pro wrestler Randy “The Ram” Robinson, a former superstar now paying the price for twenty years of grueling punishment in and out of the ring. But he’s about to risk everything to prove he has one more match left in him: a re-staging of his famous Madison Square Garden bout against “The Ayatollah.” Darren Aronofsky directs a powerful cast in this action-packed saga of guts, glory and gritty determination that is “as irresistible as a headlock” (New York Post).

– Awesome! (on 205th magazine)

Name the three celebs below and win this prize…

UPDATE: Hint – the middle celeb is a model.

Prize #2: Parables from the Diamond
List Price: $9.95

These fifty short meditations use real world examples from the history of the game to illuminate practical not preachy lessons to help you through life’s ups and downs. Parables from the Diamond calls on memories of fathers and sons, of the innocence of youth, of the camaraderie of the neighborhood gang, of the excitement of a winning season to help men see through the worldly concerns that can obscure the common-sense wisdom learned so long ago on the playing field. Christopher and Dromgoole use straightforward prose to help men think about integrity, family life, loyalty, risk-taking, focus, setbacks, successes, and more. Each piece is followed by “the 3-2 pitch,” a question that asks readers to apply the principle of the parable to their practice in life.

Time for another Caption Contest from on 205th magazine for another great prize! Here’s what’s up for grabs…

In this fourth season, Criss Angel tackles feats that defy the laws of nature. Highlights include a live broadcast of his escape from a building seconds before it implodes, walking across Nevada’s Lake Mead, being cremated alive, walking through steel and inviting skeptics to join in on a deadly challenge. Criss Angel’s incredible illusions, death-defying escapes, fearless demonstrations and astonishing physical feats have made him the first ever five-time back-to-back recipient of the Magician of the Year award.

I am a bit of a sucker for magic, and while I find Criss Angel to occasionally be overly pretentious there is no arguing his abilities and willingness to create an atmosphere of intrigue. If you enjoy magic, you will be consistently entertained for hours by Season 4 of Criss’ show.

(List: $34.98)
The #1 comedy of the year with over $600 million at the worldwide box office, the hilarious and inspiring Kung Fu Panda is “a delightful movie that can stand among the very best animated features” (Leonard Maltin, “Entertainment Tonight”). In response to fans’ overwhelming enthusiasm for its latest hit, DreamWorks Animation is delivering more of what audiences loved with the world premiere of the all-new adventure Secrets of the Furious Five. Delving into the backstories of the unforgettable characters from Kung Fu Panda with brand new animation, Secrets of the Furious Five once again features the voices of Jack Black as the heroic and beloved Po and Dustin Hoffman as Master Shifu.

Both DVD’s were entertaining for people of any age, but of course, kids will get the biggest kick out of them. Great DVD’s for the whole family to watch together and they’d definitely make a great Christmas gift.

2nd prize: Rebound Rules: The Art of Success 2.0 by Rick Pitino
(List: $25.95)
The failures and tragedies he recounts make this book unique. More than just a recitation of what works and why, it’s about how to succeed after you’ve failed; how to pick yourself up after being knocked down; and how to reframe yourself and see the world in a new light. This is a comeback story, a manual for overcoming life’s difficulties.

The stories he tells from his personal life and his time as a coach and the lessons he teaches by using those stories make this an interesting, easy read. I think you’ll enjoy it, even if you aren’t a big basketball fan.

If you are a regular reader of on205th.com, I am betting that you’ll have a good shot at winning this one. There are three women who I go ga-ga over (not Lady Gaga, stop emailing me!). Here’s a small hint: I recently did a post where I named them. Tell me in the comments who those three lovely ladies are. After each reader’s guess I will say whether they got zero, one, two or all three right (winner, winner, chicken dinner!). Guess as many times as you’d like until there’s a winner. If you can name all three you will win two DVDs; one is a multi-DVD set!

The first DVD is Life After People.

THE HISTORY CHANNEL and Academy Award-winning special effects studio Industrial Light and Magic (Star Wars Harry Potter) join forces to imagine the state of planet Earth years after humans disappear. Stunning visual effects show how the environment will change as dams overflow buildings crumble and fires engulf once-mighty cities. Domestic animal life will die out and new species will claim their territory. Books and photographs will be reduced to faded scraps while other signs of our existence may remain for eternity standing as the tombstones of human civilization. Through striking movie-quality special effects coupled with interviews with experts in the fields of engineering botany ecology biology geology climatology and archeology LIFE AFTER PEOPLE sheds light on the state of the world days weeks and years after humans cease to exist.

The second DVD is Modern Marvels – Engineering Disasters, 3-DVD set.

Error is inevitable in all human endeavors but when the undertakings are engineering feats of enormous proportions the smallest mistakes may have devastating consequences. From the Exxon Valdez disaster to a nuclear meltdown at a secret government facility to the devastating effects of Hurricane Katrina MODERN MARVELS chronicles over 40 of history s most devastating catastrophes and reveals the lessons learned from each one.In 18 thrilling episodes HISTORY® dramatizes the world s most notorious engineering failures using state-of-the-art special effects to investigate not only what went wrong but what can be learned from these spectacular disasters. The catastrophes recounted led to the creation of Superfund sites for the cleanup of toxic waste; improved safety standards for cars planes and ships; and new techniques for building roads bridges and buildings that will withstand nature s most destructive forces. Dark clouds with silver linings MODERN MARVELS: ENGINEERING DISASTERS presents the tragic yet invaluable handmaidens of technological progress.

I’ve seen both of these and they are very entertaining and well worth your time. The two DVD’s together are about a $50 value, so get to guessin’ people!!!

UPDATE: Contest is over. We have a winner. Thanks for playing…
Damn hints…

Would you be willing to haul 95,000 pounds on a semi at no more than 15 MPH over a road made of ice covering freezing cold water deep enough to kill you if it the ice breaks? What if it meant working for one of the richest diamond mines in the world? Yeah, I’d still pass too, but these guys don’t. And they have been doing it for decades. 40 degrees below zero temps be damned.

This DVD, Ice Road Truckers: On and Off the Ice by The History Channel, contains three specials including Ice Road Truckers: Then and Now, which gives us a peek into how it all got started and what brings these people to the ice deserts of Canada. Things like radium, uranium, gold, and of course, diamonds. The second and third parts involve a round table discussion covering what these guys do and go through and why the heck they do it.

The coolest part of this DVD is that it’s all real and put together with The History Channel’s typical thoroughness and excellent video quality. Ice Road Truckers: On and Off the Ice is definitely a DVD Guys Like.

NOTE: We will be giving away two copies of this DVD in the coming days, so keep your eyes peeled and your pants zipped.
