new chapter

just in time as always

you do realize that the term shepherd means sheep-herder. last time I checked, there were no aquatic lambs. if there were, I wouldn't quantify what these guys are doing as "herding" of any sort

in other news, every time I see this, I think "Commander Shepard"

I don't know why they call it "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic."

For starters, "My Little Pony" doesn't make any sense. The "my" implies possession, yet it looks like they're free in the show. So unless that is a reference to some extremely obscure political subject matter, or it is foreshadowing issues to come, then it should be removed.

Next, "Little." Last time I checked, all of the ponies are the same size, with a few exceptions (certain royalty). Now, this could be explained assuming the above consideration of political issues is correct, but somehow... SOMEHOW, I doubt that is the case. They should remove it.

Now, "Friendship is Magic." That is the most base kind of logical fallacy. It is saying a == b when a =! b. They are clearly NOT the same thing.

Magic - "The power of apparently influencing the course of events by using mysterious or supernatural forces."
Friendship - "The emotions or conduct of friends; the state of being friends"
Haberdashery - "The shop and its goods and wares of a haberdasher."

With those definitions in mind, we can be positive that "Friendship" is NOT "Magic."

tl;dr - Ignore Klaus' post. It is a poor attempt at trolling Raxki using pointless semantics.

YOUR SEPTIC FUCKING ATTITUDE IS NOT WELCOME HERE OKAY?

GOD!

Episode 6 was excited.

With the three people on board the Shōnan Maru 2, the Sea Shepherds hope to delay the ship long enough to escape. The plan fails when the Shōnan continues to follow them and they realize the Australian customs ship Ocean Protector would pick up the activists at sea. The Sea Shepherds then send small boats to attach prop foulers, but fail. They are attacked by flashbangs, forcing them to retreat back to the Steve Irwin. Another ship is identified on Steve Irwin's radar, they think it is the Ocean Protector but it turns out to be the Yūshin Maru No. 2. The Yūshin temporarily follows the Steve Irwin while the Shōnan drops off the activists. At night, the small boats engage the Yūshin. They are able to deploy prop foulers but are angered to see the Japaneses retrieving the prop foulers with hooks and tying them to the ship. The Sea Shepherds try to cut the lines but are violently attacked. Two small boat crew members are injured, one in the face and one in the arm. The Sea Shepherds realize that the Japanese are much more prepared this year to deal with their techniques. Meanwhile, the Bob Barker managed to escape from the Yūshin Maru No. 3 by passing through Australia's Macquarie Island.

Episode 7
The injured crew members on the small boats return to the Steve Irwin after which they see the doctor. Meanwhile, the Bob Barker begins searching for the Nisshin Maru. They notice a dot on the radar. Believed that it is a harpoon vessel judging from the speed, they cautiously approach the target hoping it would lead them to the whaling fleet. The plan fails when the ship turns out to be a fishing boat. A helicopter is sent to aid the search. The Sea Shepherds are worried when they lose contact with the helicopter on its return flight. After 25 tense minutes, they are able to reestablish communication with the pilot. The crew on the Steve Irwin have a meeting to rethink their strategy. Paul Watson decides to send all 3 small boats and a jet ski to engage the Yūshin Maru No. 2. The jet ski is used as a distraction while the small boats deploy prop foulers. After most prop foulers fail to work, they deploy the last prop fouler made out of Kevlar. It works when the Yūshin is dead in the water.

This series just continues to be really dumb.

Season Finaled: Epsiode 8: Target Acquire.

Operation Divine Wind Results

Operation Divine Wind Dates

Steve Irwin: December 16, 2011 - March 6, 2012
Bob Barker: December 16, 2011 - March 14, 2012
Brigitte Bardot: December 21, 2011 - January 6, 2012

By the Numbers:

17,000 = Number of miles that Sea Shepherd chased the whaling fleet

At any one time, 2 to 3 Japanese ships were pulled out of the hunt in order to chase Sea Shepherd vessels

3 = Number of months we chased the Japanese whaling fleet
2 = Number of weeks we cut their whaling season short

ICR quota for the whaling fleet

935 Minkes
50 Fin
50 Humpback
Total - 1,035 whales


Actual whales killed

266 Minkes
1 Fin (Endangered)
0 Humpback
Total - 267 = 26% of quota

768 = Number of whales saved

The Japanese Whaling Fleet needed to make 80% of their quota just to break even. 80% would have been 828 whales.

Our goal is to sink the Japanese Whaling Fleet economically. To date, the ICR is about $200 million in debt. If the whaling fleet returns next year, Sea Shepherd will be ready.




Well, this topic came to it's conclusion.

Can watch Whale Wars here.

God why why!

By that it had to end

God why why!

By that it had to begin


actually, really, why did they need to make a television show? I get the whole by-the-numbers picture from that last post raxki made. So what. Some tree-huggers chased some bad guys for 3 months, pestering them to no end, and fucked up their business. As far as documentaries go, this could have been made into a condensed movie and have the same if not a broader effect. People would watch the movie. People do not have the time or interest to follow five seasons of people in a low-speed boat chase.

In other news, Ponies and Whales.

Another question. If this wasn't a televised show, I wonder if these radicals would just resort to full-on firearm, incendiary, and explosive violence against the whalers.
