That was about five months ago in the Red Lantern book, although that event just happened a month ago in New Guardians.
To be fair, a gadget journalist shouldn't be expected to keep up with anime. But a better journalist would at least do the research to at least get the spelling of the character's name right.
Where in Michigan are you located? Mexicantown near Detroit has some good, tasty Mexican food. It's not necessarily authentic, but it's a step in the right direction. Then again, my memories of the authentic food I ate in Mexico suggests more savory dishes whereas I prefer sweet.

And then the best burritos in Michigan are from Panchero's. Next time you're in Ann Arbor, you should check them out.

Fringe is very worth watching. It's currently in season 4, and it will be difficult to jump in right now. I want to say you have to start from the beginning, but season 1 is only necessary for setup and the cliffhanger into season 2. Otherwise it's pretty just an X-Files derivative. Things pick up in season 2 and become amazing in 3... Probably doesn't help. Try to skim through season 1 and get to season 2 as quickly possible if you're interested in getting into this series.
Where the Wild Things Are was a Spike Jonze film, not Tim Burton. And I think it did a great job of focusing in on the types of emotions a child in that situation would have. It was pretty brilliant, although very depressing.

And I disagree that all books and writers will be forgotten. Shakespeare isn't the only example. There's also Homer, Charles Dickens, and Victor Hugo - just to name three. It depends on if they write stories that make a cultural impact at some point. And our culture is currently at a point where we make great efforts to preserve some of these things. Granted, businesses are keeping many of the stories around for the purpose of milking them for cash forever - but there is a large portion of the population that would just like to keep the stories around to reread and retell for the sake of just doing so.

I'm by no means a McDonald's advocate (I prefer the competition - and I mean ALL of the competing brands are preferred), but I've rarely ever had bad tasting fries there.
It's been about seven years since I was last in Japan, so this might have changed: We get more french fries here. Not suggesting that more carbs is all that great, but some people might prefer that to the smaller, healthier orders you might get in Japan.
All you need is Frenzy...but which color was he again?
I get the point you're driving here, but I think that would end up promoting economic disparity more than anything else. And, unfortunately, better sex ed wouldn't necessary keep teens from getting pregnant. There are more factors in that than education, but those who are more academically-oriented definitely have a greater aversion to taking such risks. What we really need is a system that undoubtedly promotes or rewards the completion of high school but not outright punish and damage those who slip through the cracks for one reason or another. We want to instill the drive toward completion, not the fear of abandonment and being ruined for failing to meet the goal.
Well, the article says that the two blind women who underwent the treatment a few months ago saw improvement in their vision. One way or reading this is that they could see again, but I understand that there could be some confusion since one can see but still be legally blind. We don't really know where they are in regard to their visual prowess.
They didn't think the humans should have advanced to that point yet. Anyway, I haven't been involved in any Robotech communities for some time now, so I hope attitudes have changed.
What they hated can be summed up by two words: Thinking Caps

While I found this to be a profound explanation for the dexterity exhibited by the mecha in the series, it does really take the series in a different direction - especially as it gives protoculture yet another property.

Wouldn't a good robber cover up as much skin as possible? Someone wearing a mask, hood, gloves, etc. will not have much skin exposed, which means that this stuff might need to be a bit more than a mere mist to work.
I'm pretty sure that was more of a Tommy Yune thing than a Carl Macek production. I think we're not getting a sequel because it didn't make enough money.
Macross II is a lot better than people give it credit for being. And the DVD may be in movie format, but it's still the full-length episodes - just minus their opening and closing credits. I can see why that's a bother, though, as I used to LOVE that theme song.
I love the novels. Of course, if you hate Minmei, then the ending of The End of the Circle must have seriously pissed you off.

And be happy this isn't Usegroup. We'd be burned at the stake for liking the books. They were considered blasphemy for a looooooong time.

There's a sizable group of Robotech fans who prefer The New Generation quite a bit, and even more so when they learned that the character designer also did character designs for Vampire Hunter D, Gatchaman, Tekkaman and a number of the Final Fantasy games. Plus, y'know, transforming bikes. Macross is the overall favorite, yes, but don't discredit the rest.

I'm a little disappointed that Robotech Masters doesn't have as large of a following, but that show made too many missteps.

I can't believe that you might be suggesting that Enterprise introduced plot holes and continuity errors. That's unheard of.
I've been interested in trying out Settlers of Catan for a long time...but had a Mega Man edition been released in English, I probably would have been on board the day of release. Thanks for sharing that.
Probably would be if it were The Next Generation, but there were no Ferengi in TOS.
