Argos are doing the 'early bird' 3 for 2 offer on toys again, ending on Tuesday 2nd October. Until Sunday 30th September they are still running the voucher promotion where you get a £5 voucher for spending over £50 or a £10 voucher for spending over £100.
The offer doesn't show in your online basket, but will show up when you go to collect your reservations, or at the till. Rumour has it that Kurio and innotab are included in the offer. I 'll be buying moshi monsters toys and hexbugs for christmas.
Unlike 3 for 2 offers in other stores the till doesn't arrange them in order of price, it simply gives you the cheapest ones for free, so it's sometimes worth doing each 3 in a separate transaction to get the best savings.

Subzero Warm Breath Balaclava
I don't know about you, but seeing this $79.95 Subzero Warm Breath Balaclava just makes me want to shout, "Mortal Kombatttt!!!" and firing up the iconic soundtrack while I start practising my Fatality moves as Subzero, the undead ninja in the beat 'em up. Don a yellow suit and you have the license to "Get over here!", while putting on a green suit and you end up being another speechless ninja known as Reptile. Too bad the Subzero Warm Breath Balaclava has no references to the classic violent video game, but rather, it is meant to facilitate comfortable breathing by humidifying and warming up the winter air.
A special ventilation chamber will sit within the integrated mask, letting you inhale full, unhindered breaths while trapping a small amount of heated, humid exhalation. As a result, you will be able to enjoy a comfortable, fully oxygenated "microclimate" inside the mask, where it will boast humidity of up to 80% higher as well as temperatures up to 60° F warmer compared to the chilly air on the outside. One size fits all, or so the product description says – hopefully that's true for Bruce Banner.

If Bruce Banner turns into Hulk and the mask will still be in place, he might look more frighten as he does already… kids be aware!

Tullet may have finally run up against the limits created by the conventions of a book with this latest addition to his clever Let's Play Games! series.
It's not that the book isn't attractive. Intense colors enliven the wordless board pages. With each page turn, shaped cutouts overlap to create new and interesting designs. But the designs are more static than in Tullet's earlier offerings. Although each is different when viewed from the verso and recto sides, there are only so many changes possible within the constraints of a bound book. The child's imagination is limited by the order of the die-cut pages, predetermined by Tullet. For the youngest children, the book may serve as a briefly intriguing tactile introduction to shapes. The lack of words means that readers can name the shapes what they wish: what would you call that wavy cutout? The book begs to be disassembled or repackaged as a boxed folio, so the pages can be used as tracing templates and stacked and restacked in endless configurations by imaginative children. Older children, attempting to trace the shapes (as suggested in the message to parents on the back of the book) will find the binding a frustrating obstacle to creativity.
This is the rare book that would be improved by falling apart. (Board book. 1-4)

Diana DeGarmo and Ace Young find post-'Idol' romance
Diana DeGarmo and Ace Young are stepping out as a couple, but the "American Idol" alums didn't fall for each other on the set of the hit Fox reality show -- the musical duo actually met years later as co-stars in the Broadway revival of "Hair."
Here's the shocker. They actually started dating back in 2010, two whole years ago, and are just now talking about it. Of course, there were a few hints along the way. The couple were snapped together on more than one red carpet, but considering their "Idol" roots (she was the runner-up on season three; he came in seventh on season five) and "Hair" past, no one paid much attention.
DeGarmo, 24, tells People they became smitten when they met in New York and a friendship "blossomed into a beautiful relationship."
Young, 31, joked that seeing DeGarmo disrobe in "Hair" was all it took. "I was already interested in her as a person before I got to see her with no clothes on," he said. "But [that] sealed the deal."
After a brief time apart (DeGarmo was touring with the cast of "9 to 5" while Young was back in Los Angeles) the two are in the same city and living under the same roof.
Now, when DeGarmo isn't busy with her CBS soap "The Young and the Restless," she and Young are writing songs together. The couple, along with some friends, started the group All Access and recently received a Grammy nomination for co-writing "It's Not Over" for fellow "Idol" alum Chris Daughtry.
"She's my best friend," Young tells People. "To be able to dive in with Diana and help create songs that [tell] her story is amazing."

Chateaux of the Loire Valley
Heading out early, our bus made its way through the outer suburbs of Paris and eventually on to the open highway. While most of the staff and students ignored the passing activity, for me as a new arrival to France, it was all very interesting. The early morning commuters, the regular toll booths, nuclear power stations, various bridges crossing gently flowing rivers and the sight of distant towns; nothing escaped my attention. Eventually the major highway gave way to smaller roads that passed through quaint towns and rolling hills lined with endless rows of grapevines. Conversation amongst the staff on board inevitably switched to the serious subject of wine and the reputation of the various varieties that come from this region. The only thing I could contribute at this point was a positive comparative endorsement of Australian wine, something that didn't particularly carry much weight amongst those who had lived in France for several years. It seemed that on this particular subject, French produced wine was clearly the best in the world and those from other countries should be regarded as being merely one step up from vinegar. As I hastily retreated from the debate, I cast my eyes out of the window to see several hot air balloons effortlessly drifting across the horizon … now that would be a unique way to take this all in!
Our first stop would be Chateaux Chambord, which is the largest chateaux in the Loire Valley. Although it has some 440 rooms, this was a mere hunting lodge for Louis XIV who used it frequently as he particularly enjoyed the pastoral court life it offered. Originally built in the 1500's, the Chateaux provides a somewhat grandiose vision of French renaissance architecture, with its curved exterior walls and more than 800 sculpted columns upon its elaborately decorated roof. While the chateaux interior has 84 staircases, one in particular attracts most of the attention. It is claimed to have been designed by Leonardo da Vinci and consists of two intertwining spiral staircases. Much like a DNA 'double-helix', it allows two people to go up or down the stairs without crossing paths with each other … surely only Leonardo could have engineered something like that! With the pillaging of the French Revolution and with long periods in which the chateau was left abandoned, there remains little in the way of furniture. However, the building stands as testament to the flamboyant excesses of the French aristocracy and as a fascinating monument to its architectural extravagance.
Another great Chateaux we visited was at Chenonceau where one of the most photographed buildings in France elegantly straddles the River Cher. We sensed that this was quite a special place by the sheer number of tourists who were single mindedly trekking through the woods with cameras in hand. It is after all, apart from the Palace of Versailles, the most visited Chateaux in France. Although it is always referred to as a Chateaux, Chenoneax is technically a 'manor house', being much smaller in size, although it remains no less elegant with a history that goes back to the days of French royalty in the 1500's. While Chambord might reflect the excesses of the period, Chenoneax is regarded as quite an exceptional, yet more modest example of French rennaisance architecture. The fact that it has survived both revolution and war is quite amazing; something which in no small part was due to a succession of extraordinary women who protected and administered this much loved building during its long history. It is truly a romantic building, with its beautifully balanced asymmetrical design that features arched footings, which seem to lightly touch the river that it spans.
Over two days we spotted many more chateaux in the region (there are actually more than 300). Most sit on vast acres of land as cold and distant monuments to a time long gone. So it was particularly nice to visit a Chateaux that is still inhabited and operational; due to the support of tourism of course. Such is the case with the beautifully preserved Chateaux Beauregarde, which was designed and built in the 1500's and is indicative of the style of many constructed at that time. As well as being architecturally elegant, the Chateaux is significant for enabling the visitor to put faces to the many aristocrats and royalty who frequented such buildings and the region. This is due to an enormous 'gallery of portraits' (the largest in Europe), which displays paintings of 327 dignitaries from the 14th-17th century. With works displayed in a large and beautifully preserved oak paneled room, the gallery provides an insight into the human side of the architectural eccentricities of that period. At one time these people were the most powerful in Europe, with such unimaginable wealth as to indulge themselves with buildings of scale, splendor and opulence. While these Chateaux now remain a much appreciated legacy of those times, there is no doubt their presence must have fuel the discontent of the masses in their day. I guess that in the end, it wasn't totally surprising that it all culminated in the fervor of violent revolution!

Top noitaminA Anime
noitaminA is a programing block created in 2005 starting with Honey and Clover. The goal was to bring in the female anime viewers. Over the years I personally think that goal has changed into bringing just great quality shows to the viewer no matter what gender they are aimed at. It is clear that the female aim is still present but it is also very clear that it is not as over bearing as it was in previous years.
I made it a goal sometime ago to watch everything that has aired in this slot. For the most part these anime have always been awesome to watch and I can honestly say I've only really disliked sitting through one of these shows. Here's my top list to date.
Jyu Oh Sei 10/10
This was my first brush with noitaminA anime. Honestly I didn't even know much about noitaminA at the time of watching this. I was mostly like "Ohhh hey a survival anime! I like those!" and dove right in. Jyu Oh Sei is far from most people's favourite noitaminA show, hell it's far from most people's top 10 anime of all time! Which it just happens to place 10th on that list of mine. I was just captivated by the show so much. I enjoyed all the characters, loved the look, and the story has a cute twist to it by the end of everything.
Third and Thor are probably my favourite characters of the series. I can't honestly choose who I like more much to the sadness of my girlfriends because for the most part they are on team Third. This prison planet, Chimera, that these men have come to live on is quite harsh and a great environment for some action. The strange politics of the planet play a very interesting roll in this series as well. The goal of becoming the Beast King is at the top of everyones mind and most will do anything to achieve the glorious title.
House of Five Leaves 10/10
This quiet samurai show is just amazing. House of Five Leaves focuses on many things but the budding relationship between 2 men was quite something. And no not in that totally gay kind of way! Although that could have been fun too 😛
I view Yaichi as a great tragic character yet having Akitsu Masanosuke around helps him in ways I'm sure he didn't even know he needed help with. Both men go through this actually. It's just great!
I know this show is not for everyone. The pacing is terrible at times and honestly the story is rather jumbled. But none the less it found it's way into my heart and I'll forever love it to bits.
Honey + Clover 9/10
A lovely slice of school life romance. But yes while this is filled with everything I generally hate, I love Honey and Clover! Why? Because it's not a so typical romance story and it's NOT a so typical school environment.
I have no interest in art or their school for the most part but these characters drew me in because of their passion. I respect passion and trying to find your place in the world and it was all done wonderfully. Along with finding their place in the world we of course get the drama and romance thrown in there too. Seriously love triangles EVERYWHERE! It was great honestly because even if I knew who would end up with who in the end (even though to most it wasn't obvious) there was enjoyment of watching each character get to where they will end up. Happy ending or sad depends on who you were rooting for I suppose. Weirdest OP ever!
Kuragehime 9/10
Otaku come in all forms! The word does not mean "Anime Fan" as most have come to believe in the west. It really means anyone that has a super interest in something. So yes, there are anime otaku, but there are every other hobby otaku out there as well. Kuragehime showcases 5 different otaku and hilariously enough none of them are anime fans! Well I guess the yaoi manga writer counts as an "anime" fan but we never see her so I dunno if that should count.
Every single character in this show was perfect. Even the ones we are clearly suppose to hate. I loved every single one of them and wanted them all to succeed in whatever they were driving towards. Even if that goal was just rent!
Nodame Cantabile 9/10
I avoided this show for the longest time. I was afraid that it was going to be too dependent on music and that I'd end up hating it. Thankfully while Nodame Cantabile is completely filled with music and while it does play a very important part in the show, I fell in love with pretty much every single character they threw at me.
Nodame is a quirky girl that finds her way into the heart of a tough hard ass. Not the best of matches but well they do say opposites attract right?! For some reason Nodame and her love Chiaki really reminds me of my own relationship so this is pretty much why it's in the #5 spot. When anime characters can speak to me like that, I LIKE!
Bunny Drop 9/10
I didn't think I would enjoy this as much as I did but Bunny Drop melted my cold heart. It was a slow slice of life show about a single man who takes in a very young child. He has no idea how to take care of a kid but he does so anyway. We get to follow their journey learning about one another and how to cope with their new situation.
This falls into my adult slice of life category. Sure it focused on the girl a lot but it also focused on the adult a lot too. A very nice balance if I do say so myself. I think they could do with more episodes and all but I'm glad they ended it where they did since apparently things change a lot manga wise.
Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 9/10
Everyone remembers this anime because once they figured out THAT, they were hooked. Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 does a good job in having children in a traumatic situation and doesn't make them too annoying throughout the peril of an earthquake. Sure these ones cried A LOT but honestly if you were diving into this show not expecting that... Well I dunno what to say.
I love just how human this show is. No matter our differences most people when tragedy strikes everyone will end up coming together for the survival of all. This isn't always the case but this show did well in putting some faith in humanity for me at the very least.
Hakaba Kitaro 9/10
Spooky comedy is spooky! Hakaba Kitaro takes an old classic and gives it a little reboot. It probably has one of my most beloved OP's ever. Denki Groove is one amazing music group and I'll gush about them more down this list.
Youkai stories are a soft spot of mine because every single one of them is just delightfully strange. Who couldn't love an eyeball father? A ratlike man? Or someone who always walks around with a mask on? I love all these things and a fun filled comedy horror like this does great for a quick bite.
Antique Bakery 9/10
Old men and a bakery? Sign me up! Antique Bakery to me felt like pure fanservice aimed directly at me. I love food, I love old men, I love the restaurant business, oh yeah I tend to like the odd relationship too!
There is an interesting dramatic past to all those that are employed at this bakery and as the anime goes on we learn more and more. I kinda wish by the end of the show there was a better understanding for ALL the characters but I'll let that slide this time since the show was darn entertaining to me.
No. 6 8/10
I was smitten with No. 6 from start to finish. I didn't honestly know what to expect from it and that's what I loved the most about it. The setting is what drew me in the most. I love futuristic world that have a slum side to them.
If the setting doesn't pull you in I'm sure the characters would. I found all of them to be entertaining in their own strange ways. How each of them choose to survive in this world is quite interesting and how they choose to fight to better themselves is even more interesting.
Sion and Nezumi were a perfect match in more than one way. 😉
Un-Go 8/10
When mystery and the supernatural come together and make it work you get Un-Go! Quirky characters have always been a thing for me and this show delivers greatly in that aspect. I also really liked that there wasn't one mystery to sink my teeth into throughout the show. We got lots instead and that is what kept me watching week after week. I'd look forward to more if that ever came to be.
Mononoke 8/10
As a show that was part of another show, Ayakashi below, this was the last story in that show and since it was so good it just had to be made into its very own anime! Which I'm totally behind 100%. Mononoke is what happens when you do a horror right. It has a classy vibe to it that you can't turn your head away from even if you are feeling squirmish to what you are seeing. The artistic look of the show helps greatly with that. They layer texture over texture to pull you in like a work of art.
Also the Medicine Seller is one of the best characters ever!
Ayakashi 8/10
Like I stated above Ayakashi - Japanese Classic Horror is a collection of horror shorts. Mononoke being one of them of course but they had 2 other stories as well. Yotsuya Kaidan being the first one about betrayal, murder and ghostly revenge! It's probably my favourite aside from the last one, but since Bakeneko has a full series for me to enjoy I don't like to talk about it too much when speaking of this show. It just feels not fair to the other 2 stories!
The middle story being Tenshu Monogatari was a simple love story with a horror twist of course. I found it to be the weakest of the bunch but still very good. I think it would stand up to a re-watch whenever I decide to do so.
Moyashimon 8/10
I'll get this out of the way first. YAY!!! A SEASON 2 AIRING THIS SUMMER!!! This anime is the only one in the noitaminA block to have had a live action series air for it in the noitaminA block. I haven't watched it myself but I know plenty who have and loved it! Maybe I'll dive into it one day when I get on a real life tv series kick again (it rarely happens since I love anime way more). Moyashimon I'll always remember because of those adorable micro-organisms that the main character could see.
Eden of the East 8/10
Oh what can I say about Eden of the East. It was a great mystery that's for sure! The characters were all so great too! Especially Akira Takizawa. Everyone will remember his entry to the anime scene even if they didn't enjoy the show. How could anyone forget a buck naked boy running around America with only an amazing cell phone (that I totally want) and a gun?! My only issue with the boy is his lack of memory. I'm not too fond of characters with memory loss in general so I won't hold it too much against him.
Paradise Kiss 8/10
There's only one thing that really blew me away about Paradise Kiss. It wasn't the story or the characters or that it was about fashion. Nope. None of that really interested me hilariously enough. Well the characters were pretty great I'll admit. But I saw something that I honestly had never really seen before in anime. I saw people having sex. And it wasn't like in your face gross sex either. It was sweet and tender sex. The scenes weren't very long either which was a good thing.
It's also a great indirect sequel to Gokinjo Monogatari!
Hataraki Man 8/10
This show was pretty much just about a woman working non stop to get the job done. There was absolutely nothing special about it other than it was nice to see another adult slice of life show. I really like slice of life shows when they have a super adult feel to them (if you didn't already get that hint) and Hataraki Man was all about the adult feel.
It also showed just how hard it is to be a woman who wants it all. Love, work, stability. Too bad it's always so hard to achieve all these without getting stressed out to the max!
Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae o Boku-tachi wa Mada Shiranai 8/10
This started off very strong for me. So strong I had it at a 9. I know being knocked down a peg or 2 when it comes to ratings isn't a huge deal and all but Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae o Boku-tachi wa Mada Shiranai just felt like forced drama by the end of it all to me and I couldn't stand it. It doesn't help that I have a dislike for lots of crying children.
It was a great show to watch with a buddy of mine though. We bounced lots of ideas off of each other about where they were going and which characters were currently pissing us off. I enjoyed that the most while watching this show. It was great for discussions!
Fractale 8/10
Fractale MURDERED this time slot!!! LOL!! That's what people were saying after this show finished airing anyway. Those silly heads. This aired around the time when noitaminA started changing their ways a little. I believe they were just testing the waters personally. 2011 was a really fun year for that in my opinion.
Anyway Fractale had a really amazing setting. It's a shame they couldn't pull all the ideas they were trying to go for together in the end but honestly it was still a really fun ride.
Guilty Crown 7/10
Poor, poor Guilty Crown. Everyone hates you so. But don't you worry! I still have some room in my heart for you even though you decided to break it past the 11 episode mark. Seriously this show started off great. Half way though it kinda went in a strange direction but near the end it picked up a tad but still blew it on the finale. Music and looks are what kept me around for the whole show. I know a lot of others kept up with it for those reasons as well. It helps that I episodically watched the first "good" half and marathoned the last "poor" half.
Maybe not hating this show along with everyone else is a sign that my tastes are evolving again! XD
Shiki 7/10
Vampire shows are always hard to get my attention. When they start off as slow as Shiki did though it's even harder. I ended up watching the first 6 episodes of this when it was airing dropped it and waited till the end to marathon it. I don't think I would have survived getting through it otherwise. The pacing in the first half of the show was painful for me. I was however rewarded when it came to the second half.
The style in which this show was done is worth mentioning. It has a very unique look and those hairdo's will make you take a double take at all the characters. Very fun.
Tatami Galaxy 7/10
Now this was another adult slice of life but Tatami Galaxy did nothing for me in the end. It went all out into lots of talking and lots of strange looks. The strange look was appreciated though. Generally lots of talkie talkie doesn't bother me since I like political shows and all but I just couldn't relate to what the characters were trying to get across half the time.
Toshokan Sensou 7/10
I like strange settings and all and one that has a military air to it is generally really appealing to me. Sadly Toshokan Sensou is honestly just a mess.
Ok so there is this war on books and knowledge apparently in this world. And in order to protect people's freedom to have access to knowledge an army was built to protect books and information... Kinda screams Fahrenheit 451 to you ehh? "Slight" differences sure but I can't help but to make the comparison.
I think if they stuck with this plot the show could have been great but they decided to work on some character romances instead that just felt super out of place to me. I dunno maybe I wasn't in the right frame of mind when I watched this or something...
C: The Money of Soul and Possibility Control 7/10
Man this show... LOL... C: The Money of Soul and Possibility Control was certainly different from the norm. I watched it with a buddy and it's probably the only way either of us could make sense of it all since we could bounce ideas off of one another. We also enjoyed fawning over Mashu and Q.
Something something economics... Blaa, blaa, blaa.
Genji Monogatari Sennenki 6/10
Genji Monogatari Sennenki is a famous romance story that has been remade countless times. I personally don't care too much for the story but I appreciate the setting very much. I love historical settings of Japan and China when it comes to story tellings so as far as that goes I was happy with this show. Just wish I cared about the romance.
At least it looked gorgeous!
Black Rock Shooter 6/10
I don't know what to say about Black Rock Shooter honestly... It looked pretty... The fights were great... But anything else it had to offer just wasn't there for me.
Kuuchuu Buranko 5/10
Now... I actually really appreciate this show for what it was doing. Taking a look at the strange behaviours of humans is always interesting. But sadly Kuuchuu Buranko's quirky way of doing this was too much for me to handle. I loved the look of the show and all but I really couldn't handle that nurse with her giant needle. I'm VERY much afraid of needles so every time she'd appear I'd instantly feel sick and a wave of anxiety would consume me.
Denki Groove makes another appearance in this show. Which is by far my favourite part of the show. The OP and ED are among my top favourites when it comes to openings and endings honestly. It might just be my bias towards Denki Groove being totally awesome though!
Wandering Son 4/10
Most people will dismiss this list right here and now if they haven't already! HAHA! I feel like I was the only person not to care about these gender confused children. And don't get me wrong here. I love figuring out your sexuality stories but when it revolves around children in the slowest pace possible like Wandering Son did, it just wasn't for me.
I will give it one credit though. I loved the way it looked. I'm a huge fan of artsy water colour pieces so this anime did wonders in that aspect.
It just feels wrong to me to compare a 3 episode TV special to whole series. Sure a lot of those series only have 11 episodes but I still feel it's just not fair. So Thermae Romae is in a category all of its own! I love stories about men doing manly awesome things. Especially when they are a part of history. This TV special doesn't disappoint and it's full of completely hilarious situations. Bathing has never been so much fun! Not even in Bathtime with Hinako & Hiyoko! Although I might be biased here since I LOVE OLD MEN!
Currently Airing:
Sakamichi no Apollon & Tsuritama currently have the same rating after 4 episodes being 8/10. I hope that Tsuritama might be able to leap up to a 9 and take over the #14 spot if it ends up getting a 9 I think it'll place in the #10 spot. I hope that Apollon won't drop down to a 7 and take over the #17 spot. Time will tell~ Maybe it'll jump up to a 9! I do like music and fish! noitaminA has finally proven to me after all these years that they don't screw around when it comes to music and anime.
Robotics;Notes FALL - This one is the third in line for a Science Adventure series of games following Chaos;Head and Steins;Gate. I honestly have no faith in this one and think it will be garbage just like the first one was in this series.
Psycho-pass FALL - Dunno much about this one yet but I have hopes that this will kick ass based on the tease trailer I saw.
Natsuyuki Rendezvous SUMMER - Nice to see another josei making an appearance. I just hope it won't be as lame as the synopsis makes it out to be. Flowers and ghosts oh my! At least it's surely going to be pretty looking.
So yup! That was fun. 😛 I'll always look forward to all noitaminA shows no matter what they throw at me!
366 Days of Anime School Uniforms: Day 90/366 Guilty Crown
Day 90/366
Guilty Crown is all about Shu.
I love these uniforms for some reason. The girl and boy uniforms match so well it's lovely. Boys have an all black uniform but their jackets have this trim to them that really makes them pop out. They also have the school crest on the left side which actually looks alright because it isn't too flashy and in your face. I like that they wear long black or blue ties as well. Below I have a picture of a blue track suit with white trim on it. I can only assume these are the gym uniforms and that the girls would wear a red version of this outfit.
Girls wear a similar jacket but it is maroon in colour and they wear a lovely dark blue skirt. What makes these uniforms super cute to me is the adorable red bow tie they wear. It isn't an in your face huge one like normal it's just a cute normal size which makes all the difference in my opinion. Sadly the tan sweater vest makes an appearance too...
Overall: I sure would wear these.
Review of 2011 Anime Part 4 ~Fall~
More kiddy shounen shows aired this fall that I didn't watch. Another season of Digimon Xros Wars, Battle Spirits, and Cross Fight B-Daman. I watched the Tamayura OVA when it came out last year and was bored to tears. Decided that it was best to start actually not watching shows I won't like and put Tamayura: Hitotose on my won't watch list. Sengoku Paradise: Kiwami I would have watched if I could find subs of it. Something tells me they won't show up for a long time if ever. I know it's about pretty boys and all but the episodes are 3 minutes long!
A lot of falls (still airing) shows might end up with a rating change (the 7-8 ones) but for now this is how they stand. I'm excited to see how much better Gundam Age can get for me. It's been quite fun so far. Bakuman 2 is going strong so far and I'm very happy that we can all look forward to a Bakuman 3 next fall! Ben-To, Persona 4, and Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere were a lot of fun to watch. I'm happy with how they went from me wondering if they would be good to being AMAZING. Persona 4 is continuing on into winter so there's more to look forward to of that.
Best Show of fall should be Last Exile: Fam but since it's still airing I'm going to award this honour to Fate/Zero. As said before I haven't played any of the games but I did watch Fate/stay night and enjoyed it a lot. So much that I even re-watched it before Zero aired so the bf could experience it. I can't wait for S2! What a mean cliffhanger to leave us with.
Worst Show of fall is of course Mashiro-Iro Symphony. Eroge. Harem. Yeah...
Here's my big list of Best to Worst shows of fall 2011:
- Last Exile: Fam, the Silver Wing (still airing) 10/10
- Fate/Zero 10/10
- Ben-To 10/10
- Bakuman 2 (still airing) 9/10
- Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere 9/10
- Hunter x Hunter (still airing) 9/10
- Guilty Crown (still airing) 8/10
- Kimi to Boku 8/10
- Un-Go 8/10
- Mirai Nikki (still airing) 8/10
- Persona 4 (still airing) 8/10
- Chihayafuru (still airing) 8/10
- Chibi Devi! (still airing) 8/10
- Mobile Suit Gundam AGE (still airing) 7/10
- Phi Brain: Kami no Puzzle (still airing) 7/10
- Working 2 7/10
- Squid Girl 2 7/10
- gdgd Fairies 6/10
- Sekai-Ichi Hatsukoi 2 6/10
- High Score 5/10
- Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai 5/10
- Morita-san wa Mukuchi 2 4/10
- Shakugan no Shana 3 (still airing) 4/10
- Maken-ki! 4/10
- Maji de Watashi ni Koi Shinasai!! 2/10
- Mashiro-Iro Symphony: The Color of Lovers 1/10
Surprise enjoyment: Guilty Crown simply because everyone else in the whole wide world likes to hate on it. How I'm not a hater with the haters is amazing honestly but I like the damn show! Kimi to Boku could have gone either way for me honestly. Something drew me into it though and it may or may not have to do with cats~ Can't wait for more come spring. Chihayafuru is super girly for me but this 'Karuta' game they play keeps me interested. I'm not fond of her or the game but I do like watching them play it.
Surprise fail: Honestly there were no anime that I found bad that I thought weren't going to be already. That just further proves how awesome the fall season of 2011 has been!
Honorable mentions: High Score & Chibi Devi! I'm actually blogging! Un-Go was everything that Shinrei Tantei Yakumo wanted to be. Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai I wanted to like very much but deep down I knew it wouldn't be for me. It just drove me crazy with the 3 main characters being very unlikable as well. Phi Brain is the funnest shounen to sit back and enjoy... As long as you like puzzles... It helps when the very awesome tweets by @fathomlessblue are around to be read for it too!
~A Look at Anime to Come~ Fall 2011
Using the chart from here. I give you the below edited for my preferences:
8 anime made it to the super looking forward to and will watch. Hilariously only 2 of those titles aren't season 2's and of course they both happen to be the noitaminA titles Un-Go and Guilty Crown. The only 2 season 2's I don't give a crap about are Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi (lol yaoi) and Shana III (lol tsundere). I'm currently trying to watch Shana Season 1 and it's not going so well enjoyment wise so who knows if I'll even get it watched by the time III starts. I find it rather amazing that Shana is the only show I have to watch to catch up with what's airing. Generally I got 2-3 titles to do that for when Spring and Fall roll around but only 1 is just a little shocking for me.
The one anime I'm most pumped up about is Hunter X Hunter. I love the original series and always hoped that they would make more. I really can't wait for it! I dunno what I'll do if it disappoints me. 🙁
Gundam Age has been getting a lot of flack but I still think it'll be enjoyable. I gotta watch it anyway cause then I wouldn't be able to say I've watched ALL gundam titles! (Somehow I made it through all of SEED) Still waiting on more awesome Gundam Unicorn. An episode of that should be out pretty soon.
Ben-To has me interested for the silly factor. I don't really know what to expect but I do expect to laugh! It's probably the silliest anime I'm looking forward to this fall. I do hope that Kimi to Boku proves to be entertaining and not some kind of Ouran knock off without a reverse harem. Horizon on the Middle of Nowhere I hope it wow's me. I just want something that I think might be trash to actually be good.
I really hope that Last Exile and the new Fate/Zero do not disappoint me. I probably could live with Fate making me sad but if Last Exile is crap... I dunno... 🙁
I'll be interested in how Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai AKA "I got me no Friends "will do. There's a fair bit of hype about it but I'm still not so comfortable with it personally. Something about it just screams run away to me. Kinda like how Tamayura does along with those other few red highlighted titles...
I won't be blogging any of these but I might start that strange Busou Shinki Moon Angel soon because it's got 5 minutes episodes but I haven't decided on that yet. I've been doing pretty good with the Nyanpire posts so if that keeps going I plan on keeping up! I'm totally going to re-start blogging TORIKO as it's a shame I had to stop. It'll be fun catching up with it because GUTS GUTS GUTS is awesome!
Fall anime is going to be exciting! YAY for season 2's of shows I actually like! Bakuman, Ika, and Working woooot!

Sinai Al-Qaida-linked terrorist group Ansar Bayt Al-Maqdis, says 4 of its members were killed while preparing to fire rocket into Israel (cities).
Egyptian army reports no drone attack ever occurred.
An Al-Qaida-linked group active in the Sinai Peninsula said Saturday that its fighters were the target of a reported Israeli drone strike into Egyptian territory, a rare operation that could indicate increased Egyptian-Israeli security cooperation against militants in the lawless border zone.
Ansar Bayt Al-Maqdis, in a statement posted on a militant website, said that a Israel Defense Forces drone that crossed into Egyptian airspace killed four fighters as they were preparing a cross-border rocket strike into Israel. It said the dead were from Egyptian Sinai tribes and that the rocket squad's leader escaped.
Egyptian security officials, speaking anonymously on Friday, said that a drone firing from the Israeli side of the border had killed five suspected militants.
The conflicting accounts could not be reconciled. Both said the site of the strike was about five kilometers (three miles) inside Egypt.
However, Egyptian armed forces spokesperson Ahmad Mohammad Ali denied the Israeli strike had occurred, adding that the Egyptian army continues to search the region and investigate the reports. Israeli aircraft did not breach Egypt's air space, nor was such an operation coordinated between the two countries, he said.
Ali further noted that the Egyptian military continues to wage a campaign to stop terror groups in Sinai.
Israel has maintained official silence about the strike, suggesting that if it was involved, it might be trying to avoid embarrassing the Egyptian military.
Security cooperation
The strike could signal a significant new level of security cooperation between Egypt and Israel following the military coup that ousted Egypt's president, Mohammed Morsi, last month. The military has alleged that Morsi and his Muslim Brotherhood movement had turned a blind eye to Islamic militants in the Sinai.
The militant statement said that there was Egyptian air activity in the area but after the Egyptian aircraft withdrew, the Israeli drone attacked. A tribal leader in the area said that an Egyptian helicopter flew over the site a few minutes after the drone strike.
The Egyptian security officials said the Israeli attack was launched in cooperation with Egyptian authorities, despite Cairo's past insistence that the government would not allow anyone else to use its territories to launch attacks against jihadi groups.
Egypt's military and security forces have long been engaged in a battle against Islamic militants in the northern half of the peninsula. Militants and tribesmen also have been engaged in smuggling and other criminal activity in the area for years.
Militants have also fired rockets into Israel and staged other cross-border attacks on previous occasions.

common cold is a communicable disease. The main causes of this disease are the attack of various viruses and our body is unable to resist all of these viruses. These viruses easily transfer from one body to another. If someone uses hanky, towels, utensils, etc., of a patient suffering from common cold, he too will catch this disease. In fact by just sitting with such patients and touching them, and later touching their own nose transfer these viruses from one body to another.
No treatment as such has been introduced for the cure of common cold. In fact antibiotics too are not helpful in curing common cold. There are plenty of home remedies helpful in the treatment of common cold.
Take steam:
Taking steam clears chest congestion by loosening mucous. Once you start inhaling steam, the mucous starts liquefying and clear congestion in chest.

Sarso (Mustard)—flour paste:
Take a tablespoon of mustard seed and add one-fourth flour to it, add little lukewarm water to it and make a paste. Take a thin piece of cotton cloth and spread this paste over it, and then cover it with another piece of cloth. Put it over the patient's chest, make sure that the size of the cloth is such that it covers entire chest. This is one of the important home remedies for common cold.
However, infants and young children may find difficulty taking these tea or syrup; hence they are given nose drops, prepared by adding a pitch of salt to half a glass of water, after every 2-3 hours. These drop sooths and loosen mucous in the nose. Children should be given maximum fluid and liquid food.
However, prevention is always better than care. Here is a list of things that you should do to keep yourself away from common cold. Take healthy food, rich in Vitamins (A, B1 to B3, B12, and C) and minerals (especially zinc). Drink lots of water and other fluid to avoid mucous membrane from drying. Take proper rest, go for morning walk, do yoga and other exercises. Keep your body clean, take bath regularly. common cold is a communicable disease; avoid using towel, handkerchief, and utensils of a common cold patient.

Valenciennes, who play in the French top-flight, have asked for their Ligue 1 defeat by Metz to be wiped out.
The player concerned, Abdeslam Ouaddou, has filed a complaint with the French legal authorities after the incident in last Saturday's 2-1 loss.
"I want this game to be replayed," Valenciennes chairman Francis Decourriere told reporters on Wednesday.
"I wrote a letter to the president of the Republic, the French Olympic Committee, the Human Rights League and the Football League," he added.
"I would also like this game to be played in front of children from Valenciennes and Metz," he said.
An angry Ouaddou walked towards the stands at halftime to remonstrate with a Metz spectator who had repeatedly insulted him, Valenciennes said in a statement on Sunday.
The referee for the game said he had not realised the abuse had taken place.
Ouaddou was booked following his reaction to the abuse.
The League's disciplinary committee is due to meet on Thursday to study the incident and the referee's report.
What are these?

Manchester United Transfer News: Ashley Cole Is Very Good Short-Term OptionJanuary 12, 2013
Sir Alex Ferguson could solve Manchester United's issue at left-back by signing Ashley Cole.
Earlier in the week, Neil Custis of The Sun reported that Ferguson was looking to move for Cole when his contract expires at the end of the season. The English left-back would be free to sign with any club.
The Red Devils would likely get some competition from Paris Saint-Germain.
The Guardian, among others, reported during the fall how PSG posted, then retracted. on its official Twitter account the fact that Cole would be arriving during the summer.
Ferguson could receive a boost in the form of the French club targeting Patrice Evra instead. John Drayton of the Daily Mail reported back in December that Carlo Ancelotti might prefer Evra to Cole.
The French left-back has been at Old Trafford since 2006, and while he's looked world class at times, Evra has been struggling this season.
He's been one of Manchester United's worst players. His four goals in the Premier League have been great, but they've come at the cost of his tracking back.
Evra has no problem getting forward.
The problem is that, at 31 years old, he doesn't look capable of recovering from making his attacking runs. Time and again he's left United exposed at the back by failing to track back.
That's not to say that Cole isn't on the decline, either. Often referred to as the one England international who could make any team's starting XI, Cole no longer looks like that player.
However, he still has more than enough in the tank to give the Red Devils an upgrade over Evra in the short term.
The Red Devils don't need a player in his mid-20s to come and provide a stable left-back for years.
Fabio will be returning at the end of the season from his loan with Queens Park Rangers, and the club already has Alexander Buttner as well.
Both players have looked shaky at times, but that's expected with full-backs in their early 20s. They'll both improve the more they're on the pitch.
Trying to find that balance between attacking and defending can take years for a full-back. Cole could be a great temporary option until either of those two are ready to play in the first team on a full-time basis.
In addition, with the overall quality of the team, United doesn't need to pursue a world-class player for an exorbitant amount.
The Red Devils were seven points ahead at the top of the Premier League table with Evra struggling as much as he has been.
That doesn't mean there isn't room for improvement, which is what Cole would bring.

Ceasefire violation should be taken up with Pak: Omar Abdullah
With repeated ceasefire violations from across the Line of Control, Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Friday said the Centre needs to take up the issue with Pakistan in a "strong manner" as it was getting "more serious" now.
Mr. Omar also said that the ceasefire has been the most successful part of the peace process between India and Pakistan and the state wants it to remain in force.
"I do not understand who is behind this and what do they think because recently our Prime Minister met Pakistan Prime Minister in New York and they talked about ceasefire violations. It was decided that the DGMOs of both countries will discuss the issue and find a remedy. Instead of a solution to it, the issue is getting more serious.
"The way civilian areas were targeted by shelling yesterday, and few children were injured, it does not seem that their intentions are good. I would request the government of India to take up the issue with the government of Pakistan in a strong manner," Mr. Omar told reporters in Srinagar.
Pakistani troops had on Thursday pounded civilian areas along LoC, leaving five persons injured. Three children were among those injured in Najwal border hamlet.
Mr. Omar said, "Till now, the most successful part of the peace process has been the ceasefire and if the ceasefire is ended, then it would be difficult to enforce it again."
"We have already taken up the matter with Government of India and it is not that they are not paying any attention. Now, it is just that how strongly they will take up the issue with Pakistan…We want the ceasefire to remain (in force) so that people living near the border and LoC sustain their life comfortably. The prevailing tension there (on LoC) is not good for us (state)," he said.
The Chief Minister said Union Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde will visit the LoC soon to review the situation.
"The Home Minister of the country is touring the state after two days. We will visit the border, the LoC and review the situation and will see what needs to be done," he said.
Pakistani troops have repeatedly violated the ceasefire this year.

The Power of Persuasion
How We're Bought and SoldBook - 2003
A look behind the curtain of shilling and pitch to see how we are manipulated everyda
Robert Levine offers readers an incisive new take on the mindsets of those who prod, praise, debase, and manipulate others to do things they never thought they?d do?and are sometimes later sorry they did. He takes a hands-on approach by attending training sessions for magicians honing their craft and by taking jobs as a door-to-door salesman and a used car salesman. Levine explores the remarkable effect and power of subtlety on effective persuasion, the great illusion of personal vulnerability, and the unlikely similarities across a wide range of persuasive strategies, from parents to con men to lovers to religious leaders
Robert Levine (Fresno, CA) is Professor and former chairperson of the Psychology Department at California State University, Fresno. He has published articles in Psychology Today, Discover, American Demographics, The New York Times, Utne Reader, and American Scientist. His book, A Geography of Time, was the subject of feature stories around the world, including Newsweek, The New York Times Magazine, CNN, the BBC, ABC?s Primetime, and NPR?s All Things Considered and Marketplace.

St. Pius kindergartners and their fifth grade reading buddies were very busy the week before Thanksgiving creating prayer banners together.
The banners include the beginning words the children say when they recite their grace everyday before their morning snack and afternoon lunch. (Bless Us O Lord)
The helpful fifth graders worked with their younger friends and assisted them in putting their banners together. They are making their own banners in class as well.
"We hope that the kids will display them next week at home," explained teacher, Mrs. Susan Pruyn, "they make a great addition to Thanksgiving decorations."

I didn't put up the rest of my review from the Freedom of the City fest... usually I would have attended for a couple of days or more solid - this year just a scattering, due to other commitments. When I read back what I originally intended to post about the 'Feral Choir,' I thought: well, these I do not dig, to the point that I find them hilarious and for all the wrong reasons (maybe...). Some of the other stuff I caught was... o.k. - but I was tired when I got there that last night and left before the end. Exhaustion is not the best state to be in when listening to music, of whatever genre. Reviewing afterwards - well, it would have come out as very negative, when that would not have been my intention. I vigorously support the endeavours of all who are committed to the experimental musics I love, know what a battle it is to get finance and resources only too well - so I figured on this occasion, my critical faculties might not have been too finely tuned. I still find the concept of the 'Feral Choir' (whooo - we're scary) hilarious, and will mention the fact - but I don't want to take the piss in an unbalanced way that would reflect on the work of too many people I respect. Not that anyone or any organisation is above criticism - far from it, many dangers in living in a bubble - but the pluses of this year - new venue which may well turn out to be a good move for the future, the artists I caught who blew me away - and one who surprised me greatly, causing me to rethink old attitudes - and the plain fact that in hard times we need to pull together, made me think: not this time round. Most of what I got to I thoroughly enjoyed and look forward to next year...

Exotic styling; supercar recognition turns heads anywhere; incomparable driving character; quicker and faster than nearly any other vehicle on the road
Powering the LP640 is a huge 6.5L, 48-valve DOHC dry-sump V12 engine that makes 640 horsepower and 487 pound-feet of torque. The standard LP640 can get to 60 mph in less than 3.4 seconds and reach a top speed of more than 200 mph. The Murcielago puts all of that power and torque to the pavement with the help of a permanent 4-wheel drive system, employing a viscous clutch coupling and electronic controls that can vary the amount sent to the front or rear. In normal driving, 70 percent is sent to the back.
The Murcielago uses electronically controlled dampers at all four wheels, with a geometry that's designed to prevent brake dive and squat. The anti-lock brake system employed in the Murcielago line, with discs all around including big 15-inchers in front, is also far more robust than might be found in most other vehicles. Z-rated performance rubber provides the goods for both high-speed use and normal driving, but optional Pirelli P Zero Corsa tires are oriented for track driving.
At about 180 inches long, the Murcielago is about the same length as a compact sedan like the Volkswagen Jetta; but at 81 inches wide, the Lamborghini is much wider than your typical car.
Simply getting in and out of the Murcielago is different than almost any other new car; special scissor-style doors open up, so body stiffness is maintained and weight is preserved.
Inside, the Murcielago has sport seats with integrated head restraints and special stitched leather, which also used on the door and the roof panels. The instrument panel, while very simple and race-car like in some respects, includes a Kenwood sound system with 6.5-inch monitor and DVD/MP3 compatibility. A navigation system is also available.
The LP640 Roadster sheds the LP640's solid roof for a cloth soft top that isn't quite up to four-season duty, or for going much faster than freeway speeds in the up position, but it should do just fine in an unexpected rainstorm. A removable hard top roof is also offered.
Then there is the LP670-4 SuperVeloce, a special track-tuned model that sheds more than 200 pounds of weight and gets an even more powerful 670-hp version of the same engine, bringing top speed to 212 mph and 0-60 mph in less than 3.2 seconds. The front end of the SuperVeloce also has a different look. Two different rear spoilers are offered, depending on intended use, with a larger Aeropack Wing providing more stabilizing downforce but lowering top speed slightly (to 209 mph).
In any of the Murcielago models, Lamborghini's Ad Personam customization program allows customers to customize their Murcielago to no end--all for a price, of course--with everything from special paint, to custom trim materials to special interior fittings.
The Murcielago lineup is unchanged for 2011 and consists of the standard Murcielago LP640, the LP 640 Roadster and the LP670-4 Super Veloce.
With a price tag that can approach the half-million mark, once further customized or specially fitted, the Murcielago is a true exotic, offered in few enough numbers to make spotting one a rare treat, even in moneyed areas. Meanwhile, Murcielago Roadster is still one of the hottest exotics to be seen in cruising Rodeo Drive or Miami's South Beach.
Those with an inclination toward racing will likely gravitate to the lighter, faster LP670-4 SuperVeloce, offering some improved numbers that might make a difference at the track--as well as give some added bragging rights beyond Murcielago ownership itself.
All this said, the Murcielago offers a remarkably civil driving experience, but visibility is very difficult due to its low driving position and bodywork that favors fashion and high-speed aerodynamics over day-to-day functionality. What matters ultimately to most buyers won't have anything to do with practicality--rather the Murcielago's exclusivity, and the fact that it's one of the world's fastest sports cars.

There are some wineries that just love to throw a party, and are really good at it. There is always plenty of food, cool people and of course wine. The events are unique and memorable without excluding people who are not generally wine lovers. Toogood Estate is one of those wineries, and the events that proprietor Paul Toogood and his staff throw at the winery are ALL THAT and more.
Paul Toogood likes to have a good time and just enjoy life. That is evident if you happen to spy him around the winery property or in the beautiful wine caves. He usually has a Hawaiian shirt on, shorts and sandals. Truly it is the "Cheeseburger in Paradise" life, which happens to be the name of one if his popular events!
Some of the events for 2013 included Winemaker Lobster Dinner with Paul, Wine and Gourmet Pizza Festival, Grape Crush Safari, Halloween Party and Private Tasting and a Hawaiian Luau BBQ Dinner Party to name a few. This month, you can stop by the winery and taste the first ever Noir-tage, which could be one of the first times a Pinot noir and a Pinotage have ever been blended! The Toogood Estate Noir-tage event runs from November 1 through November 17 and features special Family Select Case pricing featuring 4 bottles each of Noir-tage, Havana Lady and Bomb Diggity for only $180. Special pricing ends on November 30, 2013.
Another popular Toogood Estate event is the Bottle Your Own events! For $8.98 a bottle for a mix and match case, you can bottle a few different varietals and save yourself a bunch of bucks! Bottling your own wine is a fun way to get a hands on experience of one aspect of the wine making process.
For those who are truly adventurous, a limited amount of Toogood Estate wine fans can spend 19 days with Paul on a Turquoise Coast Turkey Trip. Spending 11 days inland on a trip that begins and ends in Istanbul, and then continues on a 9 day cruise along the unbelievable Turquoise Coast and its islands. Just another example of how Toogood Estate takes its events to a whole other level! Get notified of all the Toogood Estate events by joining their email list, or stop by next time you are in Fair Play and see the beautiful wine caves for yourself and taste some great wines. Be sure to find out when the next party is, because it is sure pretty soon! For more info visit toogoodwinery.com

Council must do more
Council must do more
with less - Co. Manager
The county manager has called some of the measures the council needs to balance the 2011 budget "a big ask", but said it was incumbent on the council to do more with less in the coming year.
At yesterday's annual budget meeting, which started two hours later than scheduled because of the treacherous driving conditions, County Manager Seamus Neely presented the elected members with a 153 million euro draft revenue budget for 2011, down about 5 million euro from the 2010 plan.
The 2011 draft budget would reduce commercial rates by 3.5 percent and keep water charges at 2010 levels.
The meeting was ongoing at the time of going to press.
Mr. Neely said most local authorities in the country were seeking a marginal increase in commercial rates this year, making Donegal one of only very few local authorities proposing a decrease.
Putting together the draft budget has been "an extremely difficult process," Mr. Neely said, adding, "the numbers in the early days just simply didn't add up."
While the draft budget was being prepared, the council learned that the authority's grant from the Local Government Fund from the Department of Environment, Heritage and Local Government would be down just under 7 percent, dropping from 39 million euro in 2010 to 36 million euro in 2011. Though still a decrease, the loss was far less than had been expected initially.
"Had that not happened we would have had huge difficulties for today," Mr. Neely said. He said it was his understanding that Donegal had experienced the lowest percentage cut in Local Government Fund grants of any local authority in the country.
The manager also said he appreciated the opportunity to consult with the council's Corporate Policy Group in the lead-up to preparing the draft. The county manager said meetings with councillors enabled the executive to take a view on their understanding of members' priorities, and said there was a "huge effort in drafting the budget to ensure those priorities are in it."
The council is hoping to achieve a saving of 4 million euro through revising its procurement approaches. The manager said that essentially the draft budget book "contains a promise from the management of council" that where 40 million euro was estimated, the council "will actually do that job for 36 million euro. That's a big, big ask."
The savings will require "a very thorough and detailed approach to looking at procurement approaches," Mr. Neely said.
In the same way, the council hopes to save up to an additional 1 million euro through centralizing debt management arrangements.
The 153 million euro draft budget includes 47 million euro for Housing and Corporate Services, 42.78 million euro for Roads and Transportation Services, 32 million euro for Water and Environment Services, 12 million euro for Community, Culture and Planning Services and 19 million euro for Finance and Emergency Services.
More than half, 55 percent, of the council revenue will come from state grants and the Local Government Fund, with 45 percent coming from local funding, including rates, water charges and fees for goods and services.
Mr. Neely highlighted several other key considerations in his report: The council will also absorb a 10 euro levy in landfill gate fees, reducing the 2010 fee by 15 euro to 95 euro per ton in 2011; and they are targeting a 400,000 euro increase in revenue from the levy on non-primary residences, from 2.8 million to 3.2 million euro. The council is also producing 500,000 euro in matching funds to draw 2 million euro in housing grants.
Across the board, Mr. Neely said, "It is incumbent on us to do more with less. What that means essentially is to deliver on the efficiency agenda."
"I wonder would I get a start?" Hotelier, Benny Dorrian gives Donegal County Council a hand out in Ballyshannon before Santa arrived in the town at the weekend. 2112MVBritton9 BS.JPG

Nothing I Say Here Can Prepare You, Or Maybe I Just Don't Want To!
Although any reality TV crap, will not get a clap, or a call, as I'll send that for one big fall. I'll bury it in a grave so deep, that no one will ever hear a peep. From such and a such a person who seeks fame, walking down the street, acting so big, when really they are just lame. But who is the bigger buffoon? The one doing it like a loon? Or the ones who actually watch this drivel, causing their brains to shrivel? Oops did I offend, sorry that part I can't amend.
Oh wait I couldn't offend those guys any way, as just look at the time of day. The Hulk Hogan show is on, oh wait is he long gone? I meant some pee wee herman thing or some other bimbo who can't sing. I guess they really must thank God for machines, helping to better their routines. Damn I really went off there, I didn't mean to, I swear.
So as they watch 24 hours a day
The crap I wish Buffy the Vampire Slayer would slay
Watching another's Life from bed
Mozing along like The Walking Dead
I've already crossed the Threshold
Taking a Quantum Leap that's bold
Moonlighting as a rhyming nut
Until Day Break comes and I leave my hut
Going by another Alias to work
In Plain Sight I still lurk
Avoiding germs like Monk
Getting Lost in everyday junk
Counting Numb3rs everywhere
Saved by the Bell and outta there
Royal Pains in by behind
Something The X-files might have to find
Least I can avoid Warehouse 13
I'm Justified in thinking that place is mean
Californication be scary too
As The 4400 or so there might sue
Maybe Las Vegas is the place to be
That C.S.I. crew I wouldn't want to see
As they'd be looking at my Bones
And I could here Angel moans
As I go to The Dead Zone
I'll avoid going Due South and stay on my throne
As Dexter could slash me up
Even with Kung Fu that be a hiccup
The Magnificent Seven
With The Lone Gunman make eleven
That might be enough to stage a Prison Break
Psych they just went to fish in the lake
Smallville might be nice
I could pass through Roswell twice
Might see something Supernatural there
Stargate type aliens would make me swear
They'd cause Tremors all over the place
War of the Worlds we might face
Could run away on Battlestar Galactica though
Or find Sanctuary and not go
Eureka that's it
Chuck could have a fit
We could get the Early Edition
And send Dark Angel out on a mission
With the Gargoyles too
We'd have a Full House before we're through
Might be a few Growing Pains
La Femme Nikita could pop some veins
Those White Collar guys might get killed
Xena Warrior Princess might be thrilled
Unless Family Matters
Then the Heroes will make sure nothing shatters
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia they say
Jeremiah told me as he came by my way
Must be hot under those Friday Night Lights
Supposedly Castle bites
Have I Charmed you yet
You're right on the Fringe I bet
Just let those Happy Days come
Don't JAG your bum
Ooops I meant drag like Bossum Buddies
While the Relice Hunter studies
As The Pretender you could be
Joining MI:5 or maybe three
Martin would be doomed for sure
Those in NYPD Blue might give you a tour
That be a Spin City
The Shield would show no pity
Sliders might whip on by
Or Veronica Mars or some other guy
Giving you some True Blood
White Fang would bite you and it'd go thud
Wait Whose Line is it Anyway
Maybe NCIS will tell me what to say
As I go by Jericho at high speed
I can't let The Dukes of Hazzard get the lead
The Waltons would get mad
A Diagnosis Murder would be bad
Damages might ensue
And a Burn Notice might haunt you
Sending you to the Amazon
Watching a Firefly pull a con
Until some Invasion occured
After Tales of the Golden Monkey were heard
Hercules The Legendary Journeys you'd join
After joining Ducktales and stealing some coin
Going past Petticoat Junction
And some Green Acres Function
With Magnum P.I. on your tail
After your Mork and Mindy lunch pail
Such Criminal Minds after you
Yes what Seinfeld said is true
No Home Improvement here
Or some All in the Family cheer
Just the Facts of Life I fear
And as The Fresh Prince of Bel Air draws near
Breaking Bad I won't become
Or The Beverly Hillbillies might get glum
So as Bewitched as I may seem
Like I'm part of The A Team
I Dream of Jeannie never
The Brady Bunch however
Those Rugrats have some history
Isn't that just a Scooby Doo mystery
And so I hear The Jeffersons call
The Wonder Years are beginning to fall
Columbo is about to give a summation
And so ends my Perry Mason like narration
Or would that be Matlock
Bet Hunter is taking stock
Ready to go all Walker, Texas Ranger on me
Bah I have to stop as Gunsmoke is blocking my TV
Well I didn't really think I had that many in my head, had many more but some you'd dread. Plus wouldn't want you to waste your day, thinking this is reality TV as that'd cause dismay. Yeah most wouldn't fall for that, if you do fly away from my mat. You know the traps that are around if you trespass, so don't test my little rhyming ass.
Later all, have a nice fall.

Some were a blast from the past, family matters forget that was the name of Urkels show to name but one of the many that I forget I had known.ReplyDelete
Yep when Grisson left it went way way down hillReplyDelete
Now the Cheers guy is joining the CSI hill
I agree with you and Brian
Damn someone has to be lying..haha
Yippee being at work is such fun
Riiiiight away I'd like to run
I've seen way way way to much
And then double that by a touch
Glad I can amaze
As you gaze
Haha quite raw I can be
Acidic I suppose for a fee
But my tone is like the phone
It can change with each groan
haha funny how some don't remember any at all
Then when they come to my stall
Find they know all or most
Guess it's a good thing I give tv and movies a roast
Yeah most forget Urkel's show's name
But I remember all in tv/movie land, among other things, whether or not they are the same
ha nice - i don't look much tv - but recognized some of them pat..and i always loved the waltons...getting a bit nostalgic now...smilesReplyDelete
haha at least I could bring some nostalga aboutReplyDelete

Nicki Minaj Calls Mariah Carey A B***h On 'American Idol' Premiere
The feud has begun! Season 12 of 'American Idol' premiered on Jan. 16, and within the first five minutes, Nicki was already calling Mariah a 'b***h.'
Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey bickered their way through the season premiere of American Idol on Jan. 16, kick-starting what is bound to be an epic season.
The season 12 premiere highlighted eight Hollywood-worthy performances, but it was the cattiness between Mariah and Nicki that our attention from the very first minute! Within seconds of the opening credits, the fighting began.
"I wanted to bring my dog," Mariah, 42, said when she saw 30-year-old Nicki's drum major's hat on the judges' table. "We can have accessories? I didn't know that was allowed. But that's the last thing I'm going to say."
"Play nice," Nicki quipped.
"I actually love the hat," Mariah said.
"But why'd you have to reference the hat?" asked Nicki.
"In the elevator you said, 'Stop looking me up and down, Mariah.' I wasn't. I was admiring the hat," Mariah added.
"It's going to be wild," Randy Jackson, 56, noted.
Nicki Minaj Drops The B-Word On Mariah Carey
Moments later, a contestant praised Mariah's "All I Want For Christmas" as the best Christmas song ever. Nicki fumed, "She's a b***h, she's a b***h, she's a b***h."
"If she called me something that begins with a 'B' and ends in an '-itch', I rebuke it," Mariah said.
"I'm in a good seat right here," Keith Urban, 45, who was pitted between the two divas, joked.
We can only imagine how the rest of the season will play out. Actually, we have an idea.
What do YOU think, HollywoodLifers? Are you a fan of the new judges?

Date first listed: 14-Feb-1997
The above map is for quick reference purposes only and may not be to scale. For a copy of the full scale map, please see the attached PDF - 1014355 .pdf
The PDF will be generated from our live systems and may take a few minutes to download depending on how busy our servers are. We apologise for this delay.
This copy shows the entry on 24-Jan-2019 at 08:51:07.
The building or site itself may lie within the boundary of more than one authority.
County: North Yorkshire
District: Craven (District Authority)
Parish: Conistone with Kilnsey
National Park: YORKSHIRE DALES
National Grid Reference: SD 99264 66940
Legacy Record - This information may be included in the List Entry Details.
Reasons for Designation
Round cairns are prehistoric funerary monuments dating to the Bronze Age
(c.2000-700 BC). They were constructed as stone mounds covering single or
multiple burials. These burials may be placed within the mound in stone-lined
compartments called cists. In some cases the cairn was surrounded by a ditch.
Often occupying prominent locations, cairns are a major visual element in the
modern landscape. They are a relatively common feature of the uplands and are
the stone equivalent of the earthen round barrows of the lowlands. Their
considerable variation in form and longevity as a monument type provide
important information on the diversity of beliefs and social organisation
amongst early prehistoric communities. They are particularly representative of
their period and a substantial proportion of surviving examples are considered
worthy of protection.
This is a well preserved example of this monument type, surviving intact and displaying a diversity of features. It also lies in close proximity to prehistoric settlements and field systems.
Legacy Record - This information may be included in the List Entry Details.
The monument includes a cairn built on level ground surrounded on the north
and west by low limestone cliffs and with extensive views to the south east.
It stands to a height of c.1m and is 13.5m in diameter. A stone kerb is
visible in places. A stone turf covered bank with an average width of 2m and
length of 17.5m projects from the north west side of the cairn and forms part
of the monument. The cairn is one of a number of associated prehistoric
monuments on Old Pasture. It lies c.100m west of a prehistoric settlement site
and field system, which are the subjects of separate schedulings.
MAP EXTRACT The site of the monument is shown on the attached map extract. It includes a 2 metre boundary around the archaeological features, considered to be essential for the monument's support and preservation.
The contents of this record have been generated from a legacy data system.
Legacy System number: 27937
Legacy System: RSM
This monument is scheduled under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979 as amended as it appears to the Secretary of State to be of national importance. This entry is a copy, the original is held by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport.
