Multi-Post Tuesday

Now it's time for another multi-post! Cool things have been going down lately. Here's a couple of the more prominent ones:

Yesterday, President Obama lifted the limits on federal funding for stem-cell research. More info and a video at C&L.

TF2 has a big new update as of 2 weeks ago. Some new maps and the Scout weapons and achievements are now available. Get updating if you haven't yet. More info at the Scout Update page.

A new season of Full Metal Alchemist is in the works and should begin airing in Japan in April. More info at Anime News Network.

NEW FMA??!!! OH MY GOOD SUGOI!!! I shall have to watch it with MESA (Sean) because we watched the entire season together.

wait, what....no one else has posted about the uber amazing new full metal alchemist series?!! Its going to be amazing!!!

ok seriously, I know FMA always had its drawbacks, and for like 10 episodes there it got slow and random as fuck with equivalent trade taking place like every second (some guys nads get traded in for wallnuts because Edward is hungry) but dude, the series ended on a bang (unlike so many others that dont end at all....) and the movie was pretty slick, I think this next series has serious potential. FMA FOR LIFE!

I'm not sure if anyone else watched it all the way through other than you and me. Can other cuppers confirm or deny this? I'm curious to see where they take the series. Will it be a sidestory taking place at the same time or will it be a continuation after the movie? Time will tell. I'll post bt links whenever I see em.

Hey I'm a big fan of FMA as well, just didn't get a chance to read the blog yet.
I can't really see them doing anything off of the old story line, and well after the movie, life has changed... It should be interesting. There are many possibilities but I'm guessing they're just going to create a new big bad guy organization. Either that or open a new school and make him deal with life as a student... as so many anime have done for no damn reason.

Has Ed ever gone to school? GED or otherwise?

I'm down to check out the scout with anyone else, I've never been great at TF2 but it's always been fun.

Can't wait till I can graft me some crazy genetic bird muscles onto a hang glider and have a real flying machine... that is what everyone else thinks of when they hear stem cell research right? I mean cureing things and all that is great but I say we start using bio mechanics to make crazy living machines, anyone with me?
