Broadcasters and advertisers said they were too draconian, warning that a projected £39m advertising deficit would put the future of UK-produced children’s programming under threat.
when is the war on junk food coming to the US?
with caretaker in Pentagon, Baker now takes over de facto control of the war, as almost his own national security adviser, SECDEF AND SECSTATE.
To begin with, the FCC — of which I am a member — must face up to the problem. Today the agency’s reports seem designed mostly to obscure the fact that we are falling behind the rest of the world.

Recently, when trying to find out about films I’ve wanted to rent, I’ve forgone the usual paganistic blogs, flesh-worshiping review sites, upside-down crucifix-wearing DVD listing books and also IMDB.com (which I’ve heard eats aborted human fetuses). I’ve cleansed my palate, and opened my eyes to a whole new way of thinking when it comes to the art of film, while using the ChildCare Action Project: Christian Analysis of American Culture (CAP) movie review database.

It filters every title through it’s biblical-based value rating system and “society influence density” scoring chart while it theorizes, theorizes, theorizes away about how almost every movie is just plain wrong, wrong, wrong. It’s all some of the most refreshing film criticism I’ve ever read
