Quantum of Solace is the 22nd spy film in EON Productions' James Bond film series, due for release in the United Kingdom on 31 October 2008.[3] It is the sequel to the 2006 film Casino Royale, which rebooted the series. It is directed by Marc Forster, and features Daniel Craig's second performance as the fictional MI6 agent James Bond. Casino Royale's Paul Haggis, Neal Purvis and Robert Wade returned as writers, alongside newcomer Joshua Zetumer. In the film, Bond battles Dominic Greene (Mathieu Amalric), a member of the Quantum organisation posing as an environmentalist, who intends to stage a coup d'état in Bolivia to take control of its water supply. Bond seeks revenge for the death of Vesper Lynd, and is assisted by Camille (Olga Kurylenko), who also wants to kill Greene. The title was chosen from an unrelated short story in Ian Fleming's For Your Eyes Only (1960).
Producer Michael G. Wilson created the film's story while Casino Royale was shooting. The film was originally scheduled for a 2 May 2008 release, but it was pushed back to allow more time when Roger Michell dropped out as director. Second unit filming began in August 2007 at Siena and Madrid, before principal photography began in January 2008 at Pinewood Studios. Production designer Dennis Gassner took over from Peter Lamont, who retired after working on eighteen Bond films. He designed the five major Pinewood sets, which stand in for Siena, Bolivia and the MI6 headquarters. Gassner's designs are close to the modernism of Ken Adam, the first Bond production designer. Location filming will take place at Panama, Chile, Italy and Austria, before moving back to Pinewood in June. There will be more gadgets than in Casino Royale, though they will still aim to be realistic. _________________

^ lmao I was wondering when someone would tell them.
Ingredients: Pure ocean salt water
Instructions: I get poison oak very bad and easy, I tried every thing before but nothing worked like sea water. I suggest you swim in ocean for best results, but fill a bottle take it home and soak a cloth with it. Next apply the cloth to affected areas and let it soak there for 20 minutes twice a day. It will be all dried up and nearly gone the next day or so. Good Luck

I find it difficult to believe that there are people who didn't know this.
I didn't think Kino was being sneaky at all.
Unless you mean sneaky like a robber falling down a set of cement stairs encased in a suit of armor and falling into a china cabinet. Then yeah, kind of sneaky, I guess. _________________
