I did say my local PBS...and yea...KTEH doesn't buy much anymore.....it's smack dab in the middle of the Silicon Valley.....I wonder why they aren't buying much anymore (sarcasm^2)
I'm just gonna blame Feinstein and Boxer and everyone's favorite scapegoat....Gray Davis, blamed for Gigili among other things.
ooo...that's bad....that's like a single KKK member mistakenly walking into a Black Panther meeting....beat down (disregarding whether or not that KKK member deserved the beat down, of course)....or another analogy would be an average, whimpy guy gets put into a cell with a big buff guy named "tiny" and talks like he's sucking helium all day long.
All classic cases for the ol' cyanide pill (or a ricin pill if you're that Bulgarian assassin)
one word....PBS. They'll air it if they can buy the license. Hey, my local PBS bought NukuNuku (the old one...with the nudity)....and I think they also did Key (metal idol)
actually...most american movies in theaters in japan are subtitled (it's faster to do so). But if there is a dubbed one, they would show both the subbed and the dubbed ones (separate rooms of course...or it would be chaos).
And for TV (the only thing they censor is below-the-belt nudity and some extreme gore), they show all and in most cases, the original english track is on the second audio channel. Hell, it wasn't until I saw Total Recall on Japanese TV that I found out about the "triplets" scene.
You might be right about getting non-fans to watch it.....it is on late....so maybe that's their goal....'cuz it's the fans who buy the most stuff.
interpreted?! more like butchered like hell....I'd rather get info from the Iraqi Information Minister (whatever happened to that bastard anyways?) than get anime from CN. Hell...you can't even call it anime, 'cuz CN does the chopping and the re-wording, thus changing the entire story. One guy said it best on some late nite show (I think it was on Jay Leno), the made for TV version of ScarFace just isn't right (paraphrased).
Anyways...if u'r a purist...get the original Japanese DVDs, especially since when they release US DVDs of anime, they for some unknown reason (just like how the Iraqi info Minister would give weird info) process the video feed for the worse. In most cases, they screw up the color and the contrast. Hence I go for the non-US DVDs. If u need help understanding, ask me politely and I might translate it for you.
Besides....CN can actually air most of it (the subbed version) without too much editing, especially since it's not aired during the day. If PBS can do it, so can they. (The local PBS [KTEH] shows anime subbed for the most part...and they don't go choptastic with it....in fact, I don't think they even touched it nudity and all....gotta love PBS...if I wasn't a broke college student, I would donate something). And I've been suggesting that they make it so they air both the original language and the dub and the subs using the SAP (second audio program) and closed-captioning. Then it becomes more educational. O well....like I always say bureaucracy; if it makes sense, it ain't gonna happen.
(note: don't worry....my pitchfork and flaming torch is reserved for sco and "associates")
for one....I know some view (and are viewed) as goldfish...mmmm...goldfish....some are cheesy...some are hardcore and flavor-less...some like pizza...and there are multi-colored ones too.
How the hell is posted what's on newspaper ads a violation of the DMCA? It's not as if the postings themselves circumvent a copy protection mechanism. Hell, newspapers aren't copy-protected, let alone the ads themselves.
In fact, in some cases you can see the ads in their entirety online (http://newspaperads.mercurynews.com/ for example). It's where I get Fry's ads (remember the fiasco with Fry's Electronics and Fry's Ad Website, a non-profit community site that posted scans of frys ad so ppl at work or school and those don't have immediate access to the newspaper can see what's on sale, etc.)
O well....this black friday thing with BestBuy isn't new. They did this a year ago too. Like the old Japanese saying goes, "only death cures stupidity."
I agree. Some times I wish I could vote for some one outside the big two...but then.....u know...the ol' throwing ur vote away thing. Right now, elections are like a massive distributed chess game.
One of the reforms might be to make it so non-native born citizens can run for prez, since after all, America IS the land of immigrants.
Slashdot Mirror
They did something similar on Discovery's sister network, TLC some time ago....but with two such cars....for a remote controlled jousting.
I thought RISC in this context meant Really Inbreed Shitty C0cksuckers.
o well...looks like it's time to pull my pitchfork and flaming torch from SCO's "where the sun don't shine" part.
yup....this is what we get for the lack of laws forbidding soft money.
Now back to engraving names on the business end of the stick I'm gonna use to poke dog doo....they don't deserve my pitchfork.
DUH!
PBS as in PBS stations.

yea...it is a hilarious show...especially if you understand japanese (the fansubs for the most part didn't do it justice).
I hope they air it in its original form (dub can be on the second audio program and subs can be on CC).
yea....like Anna Nicole Smith. ("Smitty...rimshot plz")

I shouldn't post when I'm hungry, huh?
now we can code a human being from DNA that will have code for nanites in their DNA....superhuman beings...here we come!
(the implications can mean no more need for those herbal pills for lowering cholestoral, acne, etc.)
hmmmm....resistance is futile....eh?
"This day will live in infamy!"
O well...time to apt-get some updates.
SCO's Love, Ransom....SCO's Loves, Ransom.....SCO Loves Ransom.
Man...its just like it's right out of one of those comic books about an evil mafia-like corporation, except it's better.....it's real.
why not make it so the industry gets it for free if ppl can continue to get "free" content for it? After all, it isn't pirating, it's sampling now.
it's microsoft, duh!
Argosoft seems to be better than MS if u must use windows.
Otherwise, *nix will do fine and best of all, it doesn't have the other bugs nor license costs to worry about.
a new place I should call home.
errr...no.....newspapers are analog (so much for the digital portion of the digital millenium copyright act).
and time isn't a copy-protection...it's a read-protection.

pitchforks.....and lots of them.
flaming torches might help too.
it means that AT&T wants to get a pitchfork or two up their keesters.
MoFoQ starts handing out pitchforks.
It's a conspiracy I tell ya!
It's MLB! (from the simpsons, btw)
I agree.

so why not start to get closer to that ideal?
I noticed that too......
Luckily, I come from a long line of true democracy-loving voters who don't fall for the "shiny" stuff.
and yes....we are a dying breed.
it's hard to lobby with lil' or no cash in comparsion to the pro-lobbyists.
