Awards? For season six? You mean like, "Best Turning of a Great Show into the Most Disturbingly Awful Thing on TV"?

No, god forbid. Awards like "which Willow hair was better, JBF (Seeing Red) or In-the-process-of-BF (in OMWF)?"

You know, Puff's awards? Unless I dreamt them up...

Hi!

I heard that soon after the end of BtVS season 5 there was a crossover episode with the series 'Angel', where Willow and Tara go to Los Angeles to tell Angel about Buffy's death. Does this episode really exist? What is it called?

thank you

[urnofosiris]

I don't watch Angel, but if there would have been a cross-over episode with Willow and Tara I would have known, so nope, there wasn't one. There was this one ep with Willow on the phone (still back in Sunnydale) with Cordelia somewhere during Buffy's 5th and Angel's 2nd season. Don't know if she has made more appearances on Angel.

[BytrSuite]

There was one ep, 2nd season finale "There's No Place Like Plrtz Glrb," where they all walked in from being in another dimension to find Willow sitting there. She had no lines, she just looked really sad. That was how they showed someone had told Angel about Buffy's death.

The ep DrG is talking about is titled "Disharmony" and does feature Willow in a short scene talking to Cordelia over the phone.

[KISMIC]

Okay here's a question, uhh in the Bible there is a passage (The letter of Paul to the Romans - 1:26 onward) and I was just wondering if there was anywhere that explained what it meant and if it had been proved to mean anything other than 'God see's being gay as being bad'. I know there has been a site posted that explains things like this however I just can't seem to find it so....Anyone?

Hello. Its possible that somebody tell here this thing. But I get Once More... soundtrack yesterday, so sorry when I nag? (I dont know what word is right).
Ok to point - When I listen Under... it longer, or is have end. I think (but I think this when I was watch Once... first time) that UPN cut end of song. Its very possible. I have experience with soundrack of Gladiator - on add soundtrack is battle scene 10 min. and original is 6 min. - on DVD is very more scenes of this battle.
(sorry about Gladiator).

[b:2465b596d9] BytrSuite[/b:2465b596d9], [b:2465b596d9] DrG[/b:2465b596d9], thanks. At least now I know where I stand and what to look for.

And [b:2465b596d9] Avern1[/b:2465b596d9], yeah, UPN did cut the end of Under Your Spell onscreen. Actually, not so much UPN as ME, or, more specifically, the Jossman himWhedonyself did. It's cut to a shot of Xander, Buffy, Giles and Dawn in the Magic Box and the scene that follows is such:

Xander (blurts out): I bet theyre not even working!

Buffy: Who now?

Xander (eyes Buffy and Giles): Willow and Tara. Did you see the way they were with each other, the get-a-room-yness of them? I bet theyre (notices Dawn is within hearing range, pauses) singing. Theyre probably singing right now.

Giles: Im sure Willow and Tara are making every effort.

Xander: Oh yeah...

Buffy: (shoots him a warning glance over the top of her book) [i:2465b596d9] Xander[/i:2465b596d9]...

Dawn: (cutting in) Buffy, its ok, I do know about this stuff. Besides, its all kinda romantic.

Xander, Buffy: (in unison) No its not.

Dawn: Cmmon! Songs, dancing around, what could be wrong with that?

Ok, I read the first post about this being the place to ask any question on the topic of W/T without worrying that it might be stupid, etc.....so here goes:

After months of lurking here and attempting to find the end of the internet by my many searches on the web, I have not once seen any Promo pics of Willow and Tara together. Now, unless I am missing something, Willow and Oz promo pics are everywhere, Buffy/Agel, Xander/Cordelia, etc. But no Willow and Tara pics. And I am not refering to the actual episode promo pics. I mean the group shots, etc. Anyone who can offer any insight into this matter would be appreciated. Perhaps I am wrong and just missing something. Or perhaps these don't really exist and if they don't, then Why? Especially if it's "OKAY to be Gay" according the the Buffy writers.
I also apologize if this has already been an issue. I am attempting to catch up on all the posts here, and obviously that will take a great amount of time.

Thanks in advance for any insight!

[the slayers girl]

In restless, Willow was painting that poem onto Taras back. I have the poem, but I was wondering what language it was translated from. Ive got this project and I need a text in latin to translate into English...I was wondering if anyone knew if a.) it is even translated from latin and b.) where i could find it. I hope this is ontopic enough. Thank you so much.

sorry, it's a poem of Sappho's written in Greek.

and edited to respond to KISMIC's question: "Okay here's a question, uhh in the Bible there is a passage (The letter of Paul to the Romans - 1:26 onward) and I was just wondering if there was anywhere that explained what it meant and if it had been proved to mean anything other than 'God see's being gay as being bad'. I know there has been a site posted that explains things like this however I just can't seem to find it so....Anyone? "

This is going to be long, sorry So, in my intro to the new testament course, my professor (Helmut Koester, big Paul scholar) made a point in his lecture to mention that Paul was not condemning homosexuality as we know it today. Back then they didn't really have the terminology for love between people of the same sex. the text in the bible is "For this reason [because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator...(Romans 1:24)] God gave them up to degrading passions. Their women exchanged natural intercourse for unnatural, and in the same way also the men, giving up natural intercourse with women, were consumed with passion for one another. Men committed shameless acts with men and received in their own persons the due penalty for their error" (Romans 1:26-27). The commentary in my bible says: "Some think that Paul here comdemns homosexual acts by [b:8b27b0439a] heterosexual[/b:8b27b0439a] people (i.e., [i:8b27b0439a] unnatural[/i:8b27b0439a] means "unnatural for them"); others that he condemns pederasty (sexual activity between adult men and boys). It is questionable whether Paul thought of homosexuality as a condition or a disposition. The repetition of the word [i:8b27b0439a] exchanged[/i:8b27b0439a] is deliberate: moral confusion follows idolatry, as Jewish thought had long maintained."
So there's my not terrible comprehensive answer to your question. I'm sure there's stuff online somewhere, I just don't know where it is. Try a google search.

No, to the best of my knowledge we never got an official W/T couple pic. The only ones you see are the composite pics they put together for such things as the comic book covers. For those, theyve basically taken an individual promo pic of Aly and pasted it beside an individual promo pic of Amber.

Apparently the message is its okay to be gay on Buffy, but its not okay to have your picture taken together off the lot. Go figure!

[KISMIC]

La thank you for that, uhh, review of what the passage means!

Okay so is there any way/program at all that can uncode a file from you having to have Divx to watch it? I'm trying to burn avi and mpeg files but they won't work on my DVD player if you need DIVX to play it!

[/quote:dc42a8544d]

I don't think you are missing something if you conclude ME is less cool than they claim to be. There are [b:dc42a8544d] no[/b:dc42a8544d] official couple pictures of WT. Every time people want to show them as a couple composite pics have to be made or caps from episodes have to be used: the comics, articles, even the damned T-shirt. Of course this does not mean anyone who is in charge of such a thing is guilty of homophobia, it is just another piece of bad luck for our beloved individuals who only get treated equally when they are getting killed or go evil. Aren't we just darned unlucky.

There is one pic that has been taken of the 2 of them together which is not from a scene:

J uk made a cap from a DVD of one of the WT stills on it. This is a pretty wallpapery version of that original pic:

From the WT Pics Thread :

serious coupley goodness

This pic was taken during NMR, it is the only one you might consider a couple pic. The only one and it still is not an official couple pic.

[SlayerSydney]

DrG---
Thanks for the response and validating what I had already felt was probably the case. Bad luck? Hmmm...or just blatant disregard for the fans and not acknowledging that this couple was important to the show, just as the others were.

But ME isn't homophobic?
""It's OKAY to be Gay!" We say it but we don't support it......or really mean it."

Scout...thanks for your response too. I missed it the first time around.

Could anyone explain to me what the tv sweeps (like "november-sweepd") means?

Thanks

[Elianna]

For the US, advertising rates are set by the number of people who watch a show during a given period, and that period is measured in November, May, and I believe February (but I'm not sure about that one.)

It's basically important to get high ratings then, because that's how they figure out how much to charge advertisers.

-Elianna

[La]

You're right, Elianna, February is a sweeps month too!

[DaffyQDuck]

Also July--not that the networks put anything new on then.

[kbk3022]

For all the people that are wondering why their signatures went all wonky, it's because ezboard updated and now only ezboard supporters can use html in their sigs. So you have to go edit your sig and make it using EzCodes instead.

Edited to add: Looks like there's a new community chat feature too. Hopefully, when xita gets on she can fill in to what the new changes are.

Kasey

[xita]

For this community the signature should be the only change. Also if you had costumized profiles they won't work anymore. You have to recode it. If you aren't an ezboard supporter you can't have a costumized profile.

If you are not an ezboard supporter, you must use ezcode in your sigs

Here is an ezcode tutorial on how to get colors and other goodies.

check it out

You can still use html in your posts, just NOT your sig

[AutumnT]

LOL

um xita, could you be clearer?

[Dumbsaint]

Hey, I read through the lil EZCodes tutorial, but didn't see a listing anywhere for which particular colors are enabled, other than the "lime" example, and the basic primary colors and whatnot which seem to work. Is such a list of EZColors in existence? And could one of you lovely, EZSavvy Kitties direct me to it?

Heh. The Kittens are EZ. But you already knew that, didn't you?

[kbk3022]

Okay in an attempt to be an EZKitten I've found that you can use html color codes for ezcode. Here is an html color code link: Colors

You should be able to just use these colors like regular html. You must make sure that there are no quotes in the font face and size attributes though. Or it will give an error.

Kasey

[skittles]

the html color codes work, but you need to close the font [ /font ] (without the spaces) before you can change the color.. I didn't have to close a color in html when I changed it... with ezcode, when I did it, I would come up with a coding error message...

or you can just use the color names:

red
orange
yellow
white
purple
blue
green
pink
black?
there's black directly above this line but it is difficult to see here...
if you want other color names, you'll have to try them, these are the only ones that I found...


good luck.....

[skittles]

within the [ brackets ] type:

font size=1 -- makes small
font size=4 -- makes a little bigger
font size=7 -- makes bigger still

font size=1 color=red -- makes small red letters

font size=7 color=yellow -- makes big yellow letters

but you shouldn't (can't) use big yellow letters in your sig.....
