watch the video of “the puppet masters” - The Democratic National Committee today released a new web ad called “Puppet Masters” that shows who’s pulling the strings on John McCain’s energy policy. The video features an animated John McCain puppet appearing on stage to oppose Senator Obama’s plan to give middle class families a $1,000 rebate funded by a windfall profits tax on the oil and proposing gas tax gimmick of his own that won’t reduce the price of gas, but would line the pockets of his friends in Big Oil. As McCain talks, the video reveals the puppet masters pulling McCain’s strings: the Big Oil lobbyists advising and raising money for his campaign.

I Survived A Japanese Game Show has begun shooting in Japan and will premiere TUESDAY, JUNE 24 (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET) on ABC. This unscripted reality/game show takes an eye-opening, behind-the-scenes look at 10 Americans - many of whom have never traveled outside the United States — who are whisked away to Japan and compete in the ultimate Japanese game show…with hilarious results. The final winner in “I Survived a Japanese Game Show” will take home $250,000.

“I Survived a Japanese Game Show” Guiding the American players through their stay in Japan will be Host/Interpreter Tony Sano (Spring Break in Japan, Kamen Rider: Dragon Knight), an American actor who is fluent in Japanese; a house mother and resident pot stirrer, Mamasan; and the witty Game Show Host Rome Kanda (Pink Panther, Saturday Night Live), who leads the contestants through all of the zany challenges.

Bilenda , Donnell, Meaghan, and Justin are the final four of “I Survived a Japanese Game Show”, after Bilenda proved she could get dressed faster than anyone.

Battle Royale in “I Survived a Japanese Game Show”
Donnell and Justin must pass through 9 obstacles, all based on previous games.  There are tricycles, mochi balls, breakaway doors, and more.

Justin spins in the dizzy chair, and falls right into the water after getting off.  They’ve got to pop 6 egg balloons, and crawl through flour.  Donnell gets tied up sitting on the eggs, and Justin leaves him in the dust.

Justin is tired, and takes too much time at the sticky wall and Donnell catches up.  Justin manages to make it to the top first, and Donnell is right behind him.  They both start gobbling mochi balls and Justin finishes in the lead, again.  He finishes before Donnell, and wins $250,000!  He’s the Majide Grand Champion!

“Nanotyrannus“  was a small, but extremely dangerous little tyrannosaur.  Its head was about the length of an adult man’s arm, but it housed a pair of large, forward-looking eyes that provided excellent binocular vision and depth perception. It could easily spot distant prey, then lunge forward, taking long, fast strides with its powerful hind legs. It was very agile and could abruptly change direction.  It was also fast and it has been estimated that he could run up to 30 kilometers an in short spurts.  A victim would have found it very difficult to escape.

Nanotyrannus could grab its prey with its powerful jaws, sinking his curved eyeteeth into the body of his surprised victim. Like all tyrannosaurs, it had two very small front legs; they were finished off by two fingers that had strong claws. He and may have his arms and fingers to position the food for eating. Then again, the carnivore versus scavenger debate lingers on so it is possible that he fed on carrion, dead animals.

“Nanotyrannus” is known from a single skull and jaw. The skull was originally thought to be that of an Albertosaurus, but significant differences were noticed years after it had been prepared and stored on a museum shelf.  The skull was re-prepared, studied and re-described by Dr. Robert Baker. Nanotyrannus had the honor of being the first dinosaur to be CAT scanned.  The skull is now housed at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History.
