Main Bowdlerise Discussion Archive
back to Main/Bowdlerise Discussion
This is discussion archived from a time before the current discussion method was installed.
Consider adding Xenosaga to the video games portion of this page. I'm not that knowledgeable about it myself (hence my resistance to add this myself), but supposedly in the first volume of the game, a scene in which a man stabs a robot loli in the chest with his hand in order to get some data from her is changed to him "hovering" his hand above her to get the information. In the second game, the same man ends up blowing his head off with a gun, only to have the gun edited out. The gunshot sound effect stays. His head does not.
: *reads page*. Oh, is
why they renamed Avatar over here? It's been bugging me for ages, that has. Not that I've ever seen it but it's mentioned on practically every trope going...
They've actually cut out of a WB cartoon a scene of Bugs taking sleeping pills in order to torment Elmer in the hunter's dreams. What's funny is that as a wee lass I used to act out that very cartoon with a variety of props and would even mime taking the pills.
: On a more serious note, I've noticed that the definition on this pag points Bowdlerization as specifically editing in order to make things less offensive, while at other times on other pages people seem to take it as any sort of silly anime editing, including stuff like turning sushi into hamburgers or something. But that doesn't fit with the current definition, because I don't think anybody seriously thinks sushi is offensive (unless you're some sort of militant vegetarian or something, but then a hamburger would be just as offensive).
Should we expand the definition here, or limit the definition elsewhere? Given where the name comes from, I'm more inclined to go with the latter, but let's get some consensus here.
: 'Bowdlerise' has a firm meaning — editing to relieve a perhaps spurious offense. If editing is done for other reasons, it is a different thing, and should not be mislabeled. $0.02
: Perhaps, then, we need another trope for editing for other purposes? Perhaps one specifically about cultural changes -
Victory Cabbage
Thomas the Rhymer
: I agree. Don't malapropise bowdlerise. I'm not sure what
Victory Cabbage
, to fit convention) would do the job.
Victory Cabbage
was what they called sauerkraut in the States during WWI. Like Freedom Fries, only with some actual justification.
Duckluck: I'm pretty sure it was "Liberty Cabbage," actually. "
Freedom Fries
" might be a better contemporary example, although it still doesn't seem destinct enough. Maybe "
Rice Ball Doughnuts
?" Hmm, I'm not sure if we really need a page like that.
: "Freedom Fries" is something two or three people in DC were doing for about a week, while "Victory Cabbage" (or Liberty Cabbage, both were used) was a much more widespread thing in its day. Plus, the former evokes the politics of today, and that's something we really don't need.
: So is somebody going to make
Victory Cabbage
: I like
Freedom Fries
Silent Hunter
: I don't mind. I'm pretty sure that the Freedom Fries thing continued for a couple of years in the Congressional canteen. It recently got changed back.
Morgan Wick
: I don't like the "
Victory Cabbage
Freedom Fries
" type names at all. If we're talking about "cultural changes," neither one of those are cultural changes, in fact they're a lot closer to boulderization. How about
Culture Specific Editing
Fill In The Cultural Equivalent
or just
Cultural Equivalent
Dark Sasami
: We've always referred to this as
Cultural Translation
. The scene that sticks out most in my mind is one of the "Ryoga is lost" bits from the Viz dub of
Ranma ½
, in which he asks whether this is Nerima, and a confused farmer drawls, "Naw, this here's Shikoku!"
Morgan Wick
: I have been instantly hooked on
Cultural Translation
Cultural Translation
seems to work, wraps up the trope nicely.
: Works for me.
: Wrote up a quick entry. Hopefully
Wiki Magic
will provide the examples...
: Is this what happened to Beetlejuice (the cartoon)? I used to watch it regularly on... 11 or 13, forget. Then it shifted to channel 4 (ABC). And I quickly got the disturbing impression that the show was far less, erm, gross, offensive, than it had been. Totally ruined the feel of the show, but I kinda thought I must be mistaken. Anyone know?
: I think the title would be better as Bowdlerisation, because my inner grammar nanny is going nuts about using a verb as a title. Plus it's never categorized in a series page as a "Bowdlerise", but as an instance of "Bowdlerisation".
: I'm inclined to agree, on both counts. Move to move.
: It's harder to use in sentences that way, though. Just make a redirect.
: What do you mean? We've got the same thing for
, off the top of my head.
: Cut this —
This troper is starting to believe anime fans WANT their children to be traumatized...
Nice try, but Yu-Gi-Oh (and most shounen anime)
for kids — in its country of origin as much as here. It doesn't need editing to suit its own target demographic — which is the whole point of this trope.
Also, and more importantly,
Conversation in the Main Page
: From the same troper:
This very site is the most blatant example of Bowdlerization I can think of. Every single one of my posts has been edited to a more politically-correct form. Detailed, specific examples are replaced for more vague/generic ones, non-canon sources are used as irrefutable truth, and all kinds of humor are lost. The perfect example of this is the
What Do You Mean, It's Not for Kids?
page: all of my posts, all of them truthful, some of them laugh-out-loud hilarious, were Bowdlerised by editing until they were mere shells of their former selves (my assesment about Whedonization not being for kids was dead-on, until it was deleted).

: *reads edit history* Ah,

Anonymous Mc Cartneyfan
: Cut this and put it here. It's clear as mud.
Kung Pow!
has an example that arguably made it
: two silent
are intercepted by the
Big Bad
in the original
Tiger and Crane Fist
and are killed. The
Kung Pow script
turns the students into
to facilitate them singing about their predicament when they "die".
Granted, this could be considered less an example of Bowdlerization since
Kung Pow
is essentially an absurdist gag dub in the first place.
: I cut this out from the One Piece section, talking about how 4kids changed alcohol references. It's
inaccurate-Zoro especially drinks a
of sake.
A move which is rather silly, considering even the Japanese version constantly hammers home that the main cast doesn't drink (Luffy refusing to drink alcohol in Logue Town, Nami passing on what she thought was alcohol on whiskey peak (which turned out to be juice) Even Zoro was drinking tomato juice on the archipelago.
: Just a question actually, but how is Montblanc actually a
at the Japanese version of FFTA?
King Clark
: I have a quote I'd like to add here, but I'm not sure whether to put it on the main page or the associated quotes section. If I did the former, then the page would be
Quote Overdosed
. For the quote in question:
"Enough is
I have had it with these monkey fighting snakes on this Monday-to-Friday plane! Everybody strap in, I'm about to open some freaking windows."
Samuel L Jackson's
Cluster F-Bomb
Cuddly Flower Bubbles from the
Snakes on a Plane
TV Edit.
: If the article mostly uses the North American "ize", then
why does the page title use the everywhere-else "ise"?!
I propose a move.
Adding to the discussion at the top, a more direct example of Bowdlerization in
is the removal of all blood in Episode III, which really, really ruins a couple of scenes in the game.
As for the dividing of this particular trope, changing food to be culturally appropriate isn't the exact same as Bowdlerization. Perhaps a subtrope is needed here.

Nat Turner's Rebellion (also known as the Southampton Insurrection) was a slave rebellion that took place in Southampton County, Virginia, during August 1831.[1] Led by Nat Turner, rebel slaves killed anywhere from 55 to 65 people, the highest number of fatalities caused by any slave uprising in the American South. The rebellion was put down within a few days, but Turner survived in hiding for more than two months afterwards. The rebellion was effectively suppressed at Belmont Plantation on the morning of August 23, 1831.[2]
There was widespread fear in the aftermath of the rebellion, and white militias organized in retaliation against slaves. The state executed 56 slaves accused of being part of the rebellion. In the frenzy, many innocent enslaved people were punished. At least 100 blacks, and possibly up to 200, were murdered by militias and mobs. Across the South, state legislatures passed new laws prohibiting education of slaves and free blacks, restricting rights of assembly and other civil rights for free blacks, and requiring white ministers to be present at black worship services.
Nat Turner was an African-American slave who had lived his entire life in Southampton County, Virginia, an area with predominantly more blacks than whites.[3] After the rebellion, a reward notice described Turner as:
5 feet 6 or 8 inches high, weighs between 150 and 160 pounds, rather "bright" [light-colored] complexion, but not a mulatto, broad shoulders, larger flat nose, large eyes, broad flat feet, rather knockneed, walks brisk and active, hair on the top of the head very thin, no beard, except on the upper lip and the top of the chin, a scar on one of his temples, also one on the back of his neck, a large knot on one of the bones of his right arm, near the wrist, produced by a blow.[4]
Turner was highly intelligent, and learned how to read and write at a young age. He grew up deeply religious and was often seen fasting, praying or immersed in reading the stories of the Bible.[5] According to researcher Anthony Kaye, Turner saw himself as a leader of something special. "His neighbors' faith was never enough for Turner. When he finally came around to their way of thinking, he went them one better: Not only was he touched by God, but He also had some purpose to achieve through Turner."[6] He frequently had visions, which he interpreted as messages from God. These visions greatly influenced his life. For instance, when Turner was 21 years old he ran away from his owner, Samuel Turner, but returned a month later after becoming delirious from hunger and receiving a vision that told him to "return to the service of my earthly master."[7] In 1824, while working in the fields under his new owner, Thomas Moore, Turner had his second vision, in which "the Saviour was about to lay down the yoke he had borne for the sins of men, and the great day of judgment was at hand."[8] Turner often conducted Baptist services, and preached the Bible to his fellow slaves, who dubbed him "the Prophet."
Turner also had an influence over white people. In the case of Ethelred T. Brantley, Turner said that he was able to convince Brantley to "cease from his wickedness."[9] By the spring of 1828, Turner was convinced that he "was ordained for some great purpose in the hands of the Almighty."[7] While working in his owner's fields on May 12, Turner "heard a loud noise in the heavens, and the Spirit instantly appeared to me and said the Serpent was loosened, and Christ had laid down the yoke he had borne for the sins of men, and that I should take it on and fight against the Serpent, for the time was fast approaching when the first should be last and the last should be first."[10]
In 1830, Joseph Travis purchased Turner and became his master. Turner later recalled that Travis was "a kind master" who had "placed the greatest confidence in me."[10] Despite the decent treatment received from Travis, Turner eagerly anticipated God's signal to start his task of "slay[ing] my enemies with their own weapons."[10] Turner witnessed a solar eclipse on February 11, 1831, and was convinced that this was the sign for which he was waiting. Following in the steps of the late Denmark Vesey, he started preparations for a rebellion against the white slaveholders of Southampton County by purchasing muskets. Turner "communicated the great work laid out [for me] to do, to four in whom I had the greatest confidence" – his fellow slaves Henry, Hark, Nelson and Sam.[10]
Turner started with several trusted fellow slaves, but the insurgency ultimately numbered more than 70 enslaved and free blacks, some of whom were mounted on horseback.[11] On August 13, 1831, an atmospheric disturbance made the Sun appear bluish-green. Turner took this as the final signal, and began the rebellion a week later on August 21. The rebels traveled from house to house, freeing slaves and killing all the white people they encountered.
Because the rebels did not want to alert anyone, they discarded their muskets and used knives, hatchets, axes, and blunt instruments instead of firearms. (The latter also would have been more difficult for them to collect.) Historian Stephen B. Oates states that Turner called on his group to "kill all the white people."[12] A contemporary newspaper noted, "Turner declared that 'indiscriminate slaughter was not their intention after they attained a foothold, and was resorted to in the first instance to strike terror and alarm.'"[13] The group spared a few homes "because Turner believed the poor white inhabitants 'thought no better of themselves than they did of negroes.'"[12][14]
The rebels spared almost no one whom they encountered. A small child who hid in a fireplace was among the few survivors. The slaves killed approximately sixty white men, women and children[12] before Turner and his brigade of insurgents were defeated. A white militia with twice the manpower of the rebels and reinforced by three companies of artillery eventually defeated the insurrection.[15]
The Rebecca Vaughan House is the last remaining intact building in Southampton County at which owners and their families were killed in the Nat Turner Insurrection.[16]

Within a day of the suppression of the rebellion, the local militia and three companies of artillery were joined by detachments of men from the USS Natchez and USS Warren, which were anchored in Norfolk, and militias from counties in Virginia and North Carolina surrounding Southampton.[15] The state executed 56 blacks. Militias killed at least 100 blacks, and probably many more.[17] Another estimate is that up to 200 blacks were killed.[18] Whatever the exact number of black victims overall, it far exceeded the number of white victims.[19]
Rumors quickly spread that the slave revolt was not limited to Southampton, and that it had expanded as far south as Alabama. Fears led to reports in North Carolina that "armies" of slaves were seen on highways, had burned and massacred the inhabitants of Wilmington, and were marching on the state capital.[12] Such fear and alarm led to whites' attacking blacks across the South with flimsy cause–the editor of the Richmond Whig, writing "with pain," described the scene as "the slaughter of many blacks without trial and under circumstances of great barbarity."[20] Two weeks after the rebellion had been suppressed, the violence against the blacks continued. General Eppes ordered troops and white citizens to stop the killing:
He [the General] will not specify all the instances that he is bound to believe have occurred, but pass in silence what has happened, with the expression of his deepest sorrow, that any necessity should be supposed to have existed, to justify a single act of atrocity. But he feels himself bound to declare, and hereby announces to the troops and citizens, that no excuse will be allowed for any similar acts of violence, after the promulgation of this order.[21]
In a letter to the New York Evening Post, Reverend G. W. Powell wrote that "many negroes are killed every day. The exact number will never be known."[22]
A company of militia from Hertford County, North Carolina reportedly killed 40 blacks in one day and took $23 and a gold watch from the dead.[23] Captain Solon Borland, who led a contingent from Murfreesboro, North Carolina, condemned the acts "because it was tantamount to theft from the white owners of the slaves."[23] Blacks suspected of participating in the rebellion were beheaded by the militia. "Their severed heads were mounted on poles at crossroads as a grisly form of intimidation."[23] A section of Virginia State Route 658 remains labeled as "Blackhead Signpost Road" in reference to these events.[24]
The rebellion was quashed within forty-eight hours. In the aftermath of the revolt, forty-eight black men and women were tried on charges of conspiracy, insurrection, and treason. "In total, the state executed 56 people, banished many more, and acquitted a few. The state reimbursed the slaveholders for their slaves. But in the hysterical climate that followed the rebellion, close to 200 black people were killed by white militias and mobs.[18]
Turner eluded capture over two months. On October 30, a white farmer, Benjamin Phipps, discovered him in a hole covered with fence rails. A trial was quickly arranged. On November 5, 1831, Nat Turner was tried for "conspiring to rebel and making insurrection", convicted, and sentenced to death.[25] He was hanged on November 11 in Jerusalem, Virginia. Turner's corpse was flayed, beheaded and quartered.[26]
After Turner's capture, a local lawyer, Thomas Ruffin Gray, wrote and published The Confessions of Nat Turner: The Leader of the Late Insurrection in Southampton, Virginia. The book was the result both of Gray's research while Turner was in hiding and of his conversations with Turner before the trial. This document remains the primary window into Turner's mind. Because of the author's obvious conflict of interest, historians disagree on whether to assess it as insight into Gray rather than Turner. In 1967, William Styron used Gray's work to create the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel The Confessions of Nat Turner.
In the aftermath of the Nat Turner Slave Rebellion, dozens of suspected rebels were tried in courts called specifically for the purposes of hearing the cases against the slaves. Most of the trials took place in Southampton, but some were held in neighboring Sussex County, as well as a few in other counties. Most slaves were found guilty, many were then executed. Some of those found guilty were transported outside the state but not executed. Thirteen of the slaves tried in Southampton were acquitted.[27]
The following spring in Richmond, the Virginia General Assembly debated the future of slavery in the state. While some urged gradual emancipation, the proslavery side won. The legislature passed new legislation making it unlawful to teach slaves, free blacks, or mulattoes to read or write. The General Assembly also passed a law restricting all blacks from holding religious meetings without the presence of a licensed white minister.[28] Other slave-holding states across the South enacted similar laws restricting activities of slaves and free blacks.[29]
Some free blacks chose to move their families north to obtain educations for their children. Some individual white people, like teachers Thomas J. Jackson (later, better known as "Stonewall Jackson") and Mary Smith Peake, chose to violate the laws and teach slaves to read. Overall, the laws enacted in the aftermath of the Turner Rebellion enforced widespread illiteracy among slaves. It persisted; 35 years later, most newly freed slaves and many free blacks in the South were illiterate at the end of the American Civil War. Freedmen and Northerners considered the issue of education and helping former slaves gain literacy as one of the most critical in the postwar South. Consequently, many northern religious organizations, former Union Army officers and soldiers, and wealthy philanthropists were inspired to create and fund educational efforts specifically for the betterment of African Americans in the South.

Class Of 2012: Young Spaniards Launch Startups
"There are a lot of young people and even those up to 40 or so years old who are doing new business experiments," said Jose Ramon Pin, a business management professor at the IESE Business School in Madrid. "And there's a natural selection of companies under way. Those that survive the crisis or start during it have the advantage: The market will be theirs when the economy bounces back."
When the architects of Factoria 5 started their company as Spain's economy lurched into a deep double-dip recession, some of their parents told them they were crazy. The would-be entrepreneurs, however, had all just finished their architecture degrees plus digital media masters degrees and sensed they could fill a niche by becoming high-tech content suppliers to Spanish architects who no longer had work at home but were increasingly designing projects for foreign clients. The only other option was seeking work abroad.
After 18 months of 70-hour work weeks, few weekends off and skimping on costs by walking or taking public transport to visit clients, the hard work has paid off: Factoria 5 has completed 65 projects and makes money â¿¿ if not always a profit.
During down months, they take home almost nothing but have always managed to pay their monthly costs of about â,7/82,000 for rent and other office expenses, plus national health care and social security. Right now they're working on videos to showcase an office building in El Salvador, corporate headquarters in Puerto Rico, furniture in Madrid and advertising space for fragrances in Barcelona; about 90 percent of their work is for projects abroad.The architects consider the result a victory given the terrible state of Spain's economy. But the success is bittersweet: They don't think they'll ever build the real buildings they dreamed about during their studies: Museums, apartment buildings, and a government offices like those that country built with no end in sight until the construction boom crashed in 2008.

Emulex CEO Benck Accelerates Changes to Boost Profitability
NEW YORK (TheStreet) - Four months after taking the company's top post, Emulex (ELX) CEO Jeff Benck has shifted the focus of the server components specialist in an effort to boost profitability and shareholder value.
Emulex, which was the subject of sale chatter earlier this year, announced a $200 million share repurchase on Monday while making changes to its board of directors and outlining plans to cut costs.
"This is a very transformational move for the company because it's across a number of dimensions," Benck told TheStreet, in a phone interview. "This is a real step change in the company's strategy in that we're looking at every facet of the business, including changes at the board level to ensure that we're well equipped to be a leader into the future."
Emulex shares received a boost after the company announced its new strategy and are up more than 25% over the last 6 months. Shares of the server and storage interconnect specialist, however, dipped 0.77% to $7.71 in Wednesday trading."There's a lot of exciting things going on here, and we can use this as a platform to attract a bunch of new folks to our story," added Benck. The CEO is also wants to ensure that Emulex gets a return on its product development investments. "I have asked my team to kind of go through every inflight program and go understand - 'is it meeting its objectives'?" he said. "I want to stop doing anything that maybe looked great at the onset, but, as you look into it, you find that the return isn't there." With regard to board restructuring, Emulex wants to bring in three new experienced executives and will reduce the size of its board from 12 to 11 members. "I think, in general, our board was pretty large for a company our size - consolidating it down a bit is a good thing to do," he said. "Now is the right time for the company going forward to make these changes." The CEO also provided an updated on Emulex's $127 million purchase of NetScout (NTCT) rival Endace earlier this year. Endace is now fully integrated into Emulex, according to Benck, with revenue from the network monitoring specialist growing 20% sequentially last quarter. Nonetheless, Benck is putting "more feet on the street" to boost Endace sales, as well as exploiting Emulex's global reach. In terms of the company's overall growth, Emulex is working to expand its channel and do more with business partners, according to the CEO. The firm is also focused on its partner ecosystem, recently announcing a connector to software from big data specialist Splunk (SPLK). The CEO, however, was less forthcoming on the sale rumors that swirled around Emulex earlier this year. "I can't comment on speculations or rumors around M&A," he said, adding that Emulex's new strategy is "making a statement around shareholder value." "We demonstrated this week that there's value in this company and our focus right now is on executing our roadmap, being mindful of the spending, improving profitability and then having the mechanism for investors to share in that," he said. "That's 100 percent where my focus is now." --Written by James Rogers in New York. Follow @jamesjrogers >Contact by Email.

I really enjoy contributing to Find a Grave, mostly because I think it's sad when a memorial marker falls down or erodes away. It feels good to put that information in a permanent place.
I prefer doing full surveys of small cemeteries. If you have anything to add to one of my memorials, or would prefer to take ownership, let me know!

To answer the above post, layers of stuff can be completely normal. The oranges should always be on top, followed by layer of water and then the honey mixture below. Time will sort this issue out as long as the yeast is added correctly. My one gallon batches were mixed with no layers and fruit floating on top, but my batch that I added 4 ounces of raspberry had layers along with my friends 3 gallon batch. The 3 gallon batch is now super clear.
I am not sure how blending the oranges will affect taste, but it might have more issues with the pith flavor than normal. I still haven't drank any aged, this is just based off of reading lots of posts.
Started brewing February 2012:
All grain and partial mash brewer depending on time. Meads and apfelwein also.
Thanks. Yes I didn't blend the oranges in any later batches. For some reason I wasn't at all thinking about the seeds when I blended them. Chopping up the seeds I'm sure is going to add a bit of bitterness. But that's fine, I've yet to dump any batches of anything even though some have turned out rough.
this is my first post.
I tried JOAM three times but dumped it down the toilet after a few days each time because it was very smelly. Is it supposed to smell so bad?
I live in Korea and so bought the only thing on the shop shelf. It says Instant Dry yeast on the packet. Is this normal - will the smell disappear or should I try another shop-brand yeast?
Not to be an EAC but it would appear we have an abject failure to read here.
Seriously, for the record, I think your post was a troll post. On the off chance it isnt a troll post my advice is to follow the directions on the first page to the letter. I promise that unless you add something that doesnt belong in there that has an odor that it will not spell badly AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS OF FERMENTING AND AGING. What you claim to have done is akin to bringing your 3 year old to Sylvan Learning Center or Kumon because he failed the bar on the first try.
But seriously, my money is on trolling.
So, after 2 days I topped my 1 gal batch up a bit, and some foam/bubbles got in the air lock and the water is orange/brownish. (I pitched on 10/09, topped up on 10/11). Should I just swap out the bung/air lock or take a little must out also? My thought was that I should replace the air lock/bung when the fermentation slowed a bit, but idk what is best as I am a noob to this and I don't want to mess it up anymore than I may have already, which hopefully isn't too bad.
I am disappointed about the indifference and rudeness shown by the majority of the responses.
No, I am not "trolling" - whatever that means.
My question was a serious one about the type of bread yeast.
Unless you have lived in Korea you have no clue about the difficulties trying to get home-brewing equipment or ingredients.
So - back to my initial question - does it matter the type of bread yeast used. It seems that a lot of people have mentioned a certain brand "Fleishmanns' or something like that.
Am i right to understand from the absence of a direct answer that the type of tread yeast does not matter: Instant, active etc?
Hopefully, my next post won't make me look so dumb!

MGM Home Entertainment
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (March 2013)
|Home video company
|Home video and DVD arm of MGM
|1979 (as MGM Home Video)
Blu-ray Disc
MGM Home Entertainment is the home video arm of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.
The home video division of MGM started in 1979 as MGM Home Video, releasing all the movies and TV shows by MGM. In 1980, MGM joined forces with CBS Video Enterprises, the home video division of the CBS television network, and established MGM/CBS Home Video. In October of that year, they released their first batch of Betamax and VHS tapes: The Wizard of Oz, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Doctor Zhivago, Ben-Hur, That's Entertainment!, Network, Coma, The Dirty Dozen, An American in Paris, The Sunshine Boys, Blowup, Meet Me in St. Louis, A Night at the Opera, Adam's Rib, Jailhouse Rock, Tom and Jerry, The Boys in the Band, Rude Boy, Rio Lobo, The Street Fighter, Electric Light Orchestra In Concert, James Taylor In Concert, The Nutcracker, and Giselle.[1]
The initial printings of all 24 films were packaged in brown leather clamshell cases with gold lettering; they were presented to CBS executives. Later printings of these films, as well as all printings of later releases by MGM/CBS, were packaged in oversized gray book boxes with either the MGM Abstract Lion print logo or CBS Video print logo in the upper right hand corner of the packaging. MGM/CBS also issued some early tapes of Lorimar product; those releases would instead bear the Lorimar print logo where the MGM or CBS Video print logo would normally be.
In 1982, a year after MGM bought and merged with the near-bankrupt United Artists, CBS dropped out of the video partnership with MGM and moved to 20th Century Fox to create CBS/Fox Video. MGM's video division became known as MGM/UA Home Entertainment Group, Inc., more commonly known as MGM/UA Home Video. MGM/UA continued to license pre-1981 UA and pre-1950 WB films (as well as some post-1981 titles) to CBS/Fox (due to an agreement UA had with Fox years earlier dating back to when CBS/Fox Home Video was called Magnetic Video).
In 1986, MGM's pre-May 1986 library (also including the pre-1950 Warner Bros. library, Bugs Bunny: Superstar, the Fleischer Studios/Famous Studios Popeye cartoons, most US rights to the RKO Pictures library, and Gilligan's Island and its animated spin-offs), was acquired by Ted Turner and his company Turner Entertainment Co.. After the library was acquired, MGM/UA signed a deal with Turner to continue distributing the pre-May 1986 MGM and to begin distributing the pre-1950 Warner Bros. libraries for video release (the rest of the library went to Turner Home Entertainment).
In October 1990, after Pathé bought MGM, MGM/UA Home Video struck a deal with Warner Home Video to have them distribute MGM/UA titles exclusively on home video.[2] MGM/UA began distributing the UA library after its contract with CBS/Fox ended. In 1996, Warner made an exclusive deal with Image Entertainment to distribute MGM/UA titles on LaserDisc.[3]
In 1997, MGM/UA began releasing its titles on DVD, just like every other major studio. Some of the films MGM released on DVD were from the Turner catalog, which they were still allowed to keep after Turner merged into Time Warner some time before because of their distribution deal. That same year, MGM acquired Orion Pictures. As a result, Orion Home Video (Orion's home video division) was bought out by MGM/UA, and was retained as an in-name-only division until the acquisition deal was finalized in 1998. In 1998, the company was renamed MGM Home Entertainment.
In March 1999, MGM paid Warner Bros. $225 million to end their distribution agreement in February 2000; the initial deal was to have expired in 2003. As a result of the deal, MGM gave up the home video rights to the MGM/UA films owned by Turner to Warner Home Video.[4]
In 2005, following MGM's acquisition by the Sony-led consortium, the company was under the Sony Pictures Home Entertainment label but not using the MGM Home Entertainment name on any releases, which has distributed the MGM library, though under the MGM label. The deal ended a year later.
In 2006, after MGM ended their distribution agreement with Sony, they announced that they would be signing a new distribution deal with 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment. Originally, DVD releases of MGM/UA and Columbia TriStar co-releases continued to be distributed by SPHE, since Sony then still owned 20% of MGM, whereas Fox has no controlling interest; however, Fox has since released DVD editions of films based on MGM IPs. On April 14, 2011, Fox's deal distributing the MGM library was extended until 2016.[5]
Distribution managements[edit]
Here is the list of distributors that managed to distribute MGM/CBS Home Video, MGM/UA Home Video and MGM Home Entertainment titles:
- CBS Video (1979–1982, except in Australia)
- Publishing and Broadcasting Video (1980–1999, Australia)

A thousand years of history
Traduction and adaptation of the texts in english : Richard Griffiths
Imagine a fairytale castle! Imagine soaring ramparts and three mighty towers dominating the river valley below. Imagine these things and you have Josselin castle—a fortress where the very history of Brittany was forged. And yet, within the solid castle walls, you will discover the delicate intricacy of the exquisite flamboyant Gothic facade that they conceal. The mediaeval and the Renaissance come together to create a place of legend and magic.
Flowers and Mist
In 2012, Josselin castle served as the backdrop to the romantic Chinese television series "Flowers and Mist". The national TV network, Hunan, working with the French production company, Bayoo, chose Brittany as a location for the first time. Written by the well-known novelist, Chiung Yao, this major series was broadcast nationwide across China and Korea in the summer of 2013, attracting more than 350 million viewers.
Watch the trailer
The castle celebrate European heritage
On Sunday, 21st September, Josselin castle will celebrate European Heritage week-end by inviting you to take a journey back in time to 1900. Come and relive the golden days of the castle, just after its restoration, completed at the end of the 19th century. There will be something for all the...

Looking ahead, i am planning to build a 2nd front wheel for AM riding, esp. for steep & rocky descends. My current wheel's old, over a decade, and I have noticed that the 9MM_QR fork of the 2004 Marzocch Z1 FR ETA 130MM (5.5#s) does flex at my weight, 230#, while descending on my steel hardtail.
Is there front disc hub(s) that can be used for 15MM QR, but later be fitted with a 20MM TA?
Should I just skip the 15MM and go to a 20MM TA?
I want a sturdy and reliable fork in the 100MM to 120MM range, or a 130MM to 140MM range if the fork has on-the-fly travel reducer. I'd like coil, if I can find it.
Please recommend disc hub & fork and a rim that'll handle 2.5" 26er tire. I use a 200MM disc, Formula Oro Puro.

State regulators have given the developers of a $30-million biofuel project in the City of LeSueur an environmental exemption. The Minnesota Municipal Power Agency won't need an environmental impact statement in order to move forward with the project. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency's Citizen's Board granted the exemption on Tuesday. The plant still needs air and disposal system permits. The facility's digester will turn agricultural waste into biogas to fuel electrical generators. The plant will also produce liquid fertilizer for farmers and solid pellets for coal-fired power plants.

This Is the Story of a Happy Marriage (Hardcover)
Not currently in the store – Usually ships in 1-5 days
Indie Next ListNovember 2013
Readers familiar with Patchett's fiction, from The Patron Saint of Liars to Bel Canto and State of Wonder, treasure her imaginative and heartfelt stories. Truth & Beauty, her memoir of her friendship with Lucy Grealy, defines loyalty and friendship. Now, in this essay collection, she confirms what her readers have always known: we would love to be her neighbor, knowing that she would wash our mud-soaked clothes in her dry laundry room after a flood; we would share her heartbreak when her dog Rosie died; we would cheer her feisty dedication to uncensored reading and bookselling. The story of her happy marriage is one her fans will savor. Patchett deserves this joy. -- Cheryl McKeon, Book Passage, San Francisco, CA
A Globe & Mail 100 Selection
The New York Times bestselling author of State of Wonder, Run, and Bel Canto creates a resonant portrait of a life in this collection of writings on love, friendship, work, and art.
"The tricky thing about being a writer, or about being any kind of artist, is that in addition to making art you also have to make a living."
So begins This Is the Story of a Happy Marriage, an examination of the things Ann Patchett is fully committed to--the art and craft of writing, the depths of friendship, an elderly dog, and one spectacular nun. Writing nonfiction, which started off as a means of keeping her insufficiently lucrative fiction afloat, evolved over time to be its own kind of art, the art of telling the truth as opposed to the art of making things up. Bringing her narrative gifts to bear on her own life, Patchett uses insight and compassion to turn very personal experiences into stories that will resonate with every reader.
These essays twine to create both a portrait of life and a philosophy of life. Obstacles that at first appear insurmountable--scaling a six-foot wall in order to join the Los Angeles Police Department, opening an independent bookstore, and sitting down to write a novel--are eventually mastered with quiet tenacity and a sheer force of will. The actual happy marriage, which was the one thing she felt she wasn't capable of, ultimately proves to be a metaphor as well as a fact: Patchett has devoted her life to the people and ideals she loves the most.
An irresistible blend of literature and memoir, This Is the Story of a Happy Marriage is a unique examination of the heart, mind, and soul of one of our most revered and gifted writers.

A gym friend offers Erik Aude a free trip to Turkey and $800 to bring back leather goods. When the trip goes smoothly, Erik takes a similar trip to Pakistan. But this time, authorities discover opium in the lining of Erik's suitcase -- a crime he didn't know he was committing. With nothing but his pride and innocence to hold on to, Erik endures months of torture and hostile inmates at Pakistan's largest prison, refusing to plead guilty. Erik describes his reaction to the brutal conditions and, in a Locked Up Abroad first, he even re-enacts the entire emotional saga himself.

The AD6672 is an 11-bit intermediate receiver with sampling speeds of up to 250 MSPS. The AD6672 is designed to support communications applications, where low cost, small size, wide bandwidth, and versatility are desired.
The ADC core features a multistage, differential pipelined architecture with integrated output error correction logic. The ADC features wide bandwidth inputs supporting a variety of user-selectable input ranges. An integrated voltage reference eases design considerations. A duty cycle stabilizer is provided to compensate for variations in the ADC clock duty cycle, allowing the converters to maintain excellent performance.
The ADC core output is connected internally to a noise shaping requantizer (NSR) block. The device supports two output modes that are selectable via the serial port interface (SPI). With the NSR feature enabled, the outputs of the ADCs are processed such that the AD6672 supports enhanced SNR performance within a limited region of the Nyquist bandwidth while maintaining an 11-bit output resolution. The NSR block is programmed to provide a bandwidth of up to 33% of the sample clock. For example, with a sample clock rate of 250 MSPS, the AD6672 can achieve up to 73.6 dBFS SNR for an 82 MHz bandwidth at 185 MHz fIN.
With the NSR block disabled, the ADC data is provided directly to the output with an output resolution of 11 bits. The AD6672 can achieve up to 66.6 dBFS SNR for the entire Nyquist bandwidth when operated in this mode.
This product is released to manufacturing. Please contact the High Speed Converters Development Group for sample availability and additional technical information.
