- Kasugabe city has announced that Crayon Shin-chan will soon become a citizen of the city, while an Astro Boy Currency will be distributed in the Takadanobaba area of Tokyo's Shinjuku. The currency is not being distributed by city officials, but rather a committee formed of local merchants and students with the purpose of supporting local community activities. The money will only be accepted at participating stores and will be supplied freely to local volunteer organizations. Shin-chan isn't the first Anime character to be honored in this manner, Astro Boy was made a resident of Niiza last year. |

And she said, "Look, I'm not an expert on welfare policy. I'm not an expert on foreign policy. |

- Backgrounder bollocks: Milbank marks our cardAs this year's Pulitzer Prizes are awarded, I reflect that, gradually, the cast of DC political scribblers are distinguished one from another in (what passes for) my brain.Some, like the New York Times' Elisabeth Bumiller [1], by their extraordinary sycophancy toward their subjects in USG (and, let it be said, that is a hotly contested category); others by a more independent cast of mind, as evidenced by their drawing the fire of low-grade USG attack-dogs (a much thinner field!). |
