Argentinean Jesus Estrada was voted out tonight on Project Runway and for good reason, lack of taste. I think the color choices he chose for all his dresses were not as great and choices for sequins and other things were ghastly. He said he was shocked, he really had to look at his clothes. He's 21, still young, so he has time to grow. His taste level is not that bad, it is just it didn't agree with the judges, so this wasn't for him.Explaining the title: I am forty-something Latino who has a fondness for the Japanese culture and speak Spanglish--Spanish and English. Some people say "Span-English" so I mixed it with "Engrish," which is how some Japanese pronounce English.

Project Runway: Jesus is OUT!
Argentinean Jesus Estrada was voted out tonight on Project Runway and for good reason, lack of taste.

Jenna has always lied about her age, but tonight there was yet another episode where she has a birthday. I wanted to check if it was in the same month. Last season, it was in the March 5, 2009 episode "Goodbye, My Friend" where everyone gives Jenna's birthday to Tracy. But tonight's episode Jenna suspected her mother forgot her birthday but in reality had a big party for her. It's February 4th, but its excusable since in TV it isn't always the month the episode airs. And they were close in time anyway.

Don't Ask Don't Tell Me
Obama stayed on his word to repeal the Don't Ask Don't Tell policy for the U.S. Armed Forces. Mike Mullan, The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff proclaimed that service members should not be forced to "lie about who they are." Joint Chief’s Chairman Admiral Mike Mullen said that they should study for a year the impact before the controversial policy is withdrawn by Congress. Admiral Mike Mullen said there were practical problems in repealing the policy where members had to conceal their sexual orientation if they were homosexual. Like I have said before, if the soldier is professional, then what is the issue? The ones against it say it goes against 'cohesion,' it is already against 'cohesion,' if they want to keep 'cohesion' with straight people, then don't let gay people out forever. But yes, there is the argument that if gay people were open in the military, that would let crazy bigots beat and kill them (which has happened before, even on a soldier that was never confirmed to be same-sex orientated). It is just hilarious how these old stuffy heterosexuals get mad at this. It is like they don't want to appear weak in front of other nations, but it has to do with Gender, like women in the service before.

Rapunzel to be released this winter
The first look to Disney's Rapunzel, to be released November 24, 2010--the birthday of my second cousin and niece. The original version was that a girl got pulled from the modern world and replaced Rapunzel, and Rapunzel got turned into a squirrel. But now, thank the lord, it is going more traditional. It is a unique film as it is the first to be animated with new technology, to make it sound simple--they use special pens to draw and it ends up in the computer, they want the look to be more like watercolor paintings. As you can see above, this gives the film an unique look.
Mandy Moore provides the voice to Rapunzel, Zachary Levi as Flynn Ryder, and Donna Murphy as Mother Gothel. Disney has announced the future addition of Princess Rapunzel from the computer animated film.Official:
RAPUNZEL (Domestic Release Date: Christmas 2010, Disney Digital 3-D(TM))
Walt Disney Animation Studios
Directors: Glen Keane, Dean Wellins
Producer: Roy Conli
In this new telling of the classic fairy tale, "Rapunzel," audiences
will be transported to a stunning CG fantasy world complete with the iconic
tower, an evil witch, a gallant hero and, of course, the mysterious girl
with the long golden tresses. Expect adventure, heart, humor, and hair ...
lots of hair, when Rapunzel unleashes her locks in theaters for the 2010 holiday.

Lost Final Season Premiere
I won't explain the whole episode, but this to just give those wondering if the bomb caused them to go back in time, to where they never got on the island.
Semi-Spoilers
So yes, I still watch "Lost," it has gone from a huge hit to a cult show. The season premiere begins with the white from the bomb from last season, the longest white wash in. The first image we see are clouds from a airplane window. We treated to the old scene of Jack and Rose (the nice black lady from the first season) in Oceanic 815. There is a shake but no airplane drop. Rose is reunited with her husband. Jack goes tot he bathroom and notes blood on his neck. He meets Desmond, it turns out Desmond is now on the flight. Jack gets deja vu. We then five into deep into the oceans, to find a giant foot with four toes in the water, instead of above.
Kate wakes up on a tree. She finds Jack, James and Miles, they are where Sun and the others are, on the Island, I forget the year, but its around our current time. James is real pissed about Juliet dying in vain. Sayid, Hurley and Jin are two minutes away, near a van.
And we are also served to Jack being in a place where the plane never crashed and having deja vu with people who have never met him. So Kate is arrested again, back with the agent; James is bad old Sawyer, back from killing a man he thought was the one who led to his parents' death; Hurley being bugged by a fan--because he is owner of fast food chain and he is a lucky guy, nothing bad happens to him.
So yeah, no more spoilers. But it's a pretty good episode.

ManCrunch commercial pulled off Superbowl
There has always been some controversy over the Super Bowl, this year there is talk about the Tim Tebow/Anti-Abortion Ad. But now there has been one victim due to CBS. They pulled out a commercial. The commercial belongs to ManCrush, a gay dating site, which i can't find the link too. I think the company had very little money because the commercial looks very cheap in quality. When I saw the setup, I already knew what the commercial was going to be about. Oh, here is the link. So yeah, the commercial is tame but I think for the SuperBowl, it is not for the right audience. There is football fans that happen to be gay and watch the SuperBowl, like me, but you know, the majority of the audience are heterosexual.
So if they don't want the commercial, fine, whatever. But as a regular commercial, it shouldn't be pulled regularly, if it was to air on anything else. It's sad but like the women on the View said about this, it is hard on parents as a family event, as many hetero 'American' families freak out about this stuff. While more open-minded families don't give a football about it to explaining it to their kids. The View didn't show the part when the black guy looks shocked at the two kissing guys. It was so hilarious when I saw it.
Here is a view against the commercial:
