Comment on Try Harder, Sony by Cool

I like the article, regardless of the other comments, and if I understood the article correctly, the basic gist is that Sony isn’t discovering new worlds, instead borrowing old ideas and re-branding it as their own. I think that is a relevant assessment in this case.

I was very sad to see Portugal drop out of the competition. It’s too bad that Cristiano didn’t get to show how good he can be.

Comment on Why Question the White Tigers’ Fate? by Shawn Richardson

Yes i do agree with your points.

The law of the ‘animal instinct’ states that they are allowed to do anything they want ie: tear you apart if being provoked.

Even for my own pet dog who is a rather cute and docile creature living in the comforts of my home, actually bit me when i tried to take his bone away from him when he was growling at me as a sign discontentment.

Hence, putting the tigers down would be equivalent to putting a fat man who ate the quater pounder burger to jail.

I had fun reading this! I agree with your points…and it’s so cute to see a bleeding animal lover around =)

Man should stop being biatches and start being compassionate to the beings that share this Earth.

It’s unfortunate that we kill and cull as per our wishes and fail to realise that we’re doing exactly what the animals did in the first place - except that we took a calculated decision and deliberately went for th kill, unlike how it is instinctive with the tigers.

Ah wells.

I’ve went to the event, but I think that it turned out to be a disappointment to me instead.

The press conference revealed many exciting things to be expected like Akiba Town and discounted items to be bought.

However, AFA’08 did not have Akiba Town set up. It was supposedly to be set up with an Akiba Town scenario to make the event more exciting, but only the items were there and not the setting itself.

The items are really ‘DISCOUNTED’! Even after the 70% discount I saw on the flyers, buying one Domo-kun keychain cost me around 11 bucks.

In addition, performances are not handled properly too. The emcee was not briefed and she was just simply lost on the stage when the 5-second man show was going on.

I really hope that if AFA were to hold another festival like this, all these factors I’ve mentioned would be revised.

Comment on Rottweiler: A misunderstood species by TK

dear Kyle,
Interesting comment.
You mentioned that when your dog gets angry, you get scared of it?
Unfortunately that should not be the case one bit. It is rather obvious to me that you and your dog should be trained how to interact. I am also rather confident in saying that you are probably not the “alpha” nor the one that actually feed your dog.

Your breif comment clearly shows a lack of research and understanding to what constitutes to rearing a happy, well trained dog. I will be more than happy to help you understand your dog better and how to communicate successfully with him.

It is unfortunate that it is exactly this lack of understanding that creates ill-informed opinions and owners, which would than create the problems we have today.

I have a dog, and when it gets angry, i get scared of it. so i can imagine how people feel when they have a crazed rottweiler attacking their dog. although attacks are the exception than the norm, adequate precautions must be taken by the authorities to protect those of us who want to keep our pets safe.

a brilliant perspective piece by the writer. however, its is better to protect the majority by inconveniencing the few, than to have powerful dogs who are governed by ANIMAL INSTINCTS rip to shreds little chihuahua’s.
