    hachmike66 I disagree. There was some superb passing by the Japanese team: right into the arms of the Korean keeper every time.

    What a miserable line-up they've got for the World Cup this time 'round. And Okada as head coach, ugh! Is this really the best Japan can do?

    Sounds like the beginning of bad suspense drama.

    A lot of the drinks contain taurine (タウリン) in addition to copious amounts of caffeine and, yes, sugar. The more expensive variety also have royal jelly and ginseng in them.

    Do they work? Yes, but not as well as Modafinil, which was sadly designated a Class A psychoactive drug in September 2006.

    More on Modafinil here: http://aonghascrowe.wordpress.com/2009/07/27/2-8-cross-my-heart-and-hope-to-die/

    Caught red-panty-handed!

    I like to think that I've got both a healthy libido and a fertile imagination. And yet, I cannot fathom how a man can get his rocks off stealing a woman's skivvies. It does indeed take all types to make this world go round.

    Who is this translating dynamo, Taro Fujimoto? Most of the articles I've read this evening have been translated by him. My hats off to you, sir.

    The once privately owned studios of Hollywood are now, by and large, subsidiaries of major entertainment and media conglomerates more interested in stock performance over the short term than in producing quality feature films. The creative drive has fallen by the wayside as companies try to bump up their stock prices. And what better way to do this than to announce a known quantity: a remake or a sequel with marquee names.

    Hollywood has got some of the most clever, creative and well-compensated minds in its employ, and, yet, what does all that money and talent produce? More often than not, Crap.

    Fortunately, there is still the occasional filmmaker who rises above stench of bad movies, to create a unique and moving cinematic experience, such as Wes Anderson. It's a sad commentary on the viewing public, however, that such films are not always blockbusters. Knucklehead moviegoers, who flock to "Rocky XII", "Predator vs Alien vs Godzilla", and "Kimba the Lion Shares a Ride with Speed Racer", must share the blame.

    Posted in: Why are Hollywood remakes of classic films, "The Day the Earth Stood Still" being a recent example, generally inferior to the originals?
