America's Funniest President: Mo Udall Presidency & Beyond

[CountDVB]

Toonami will still probably be on Saturday. Schedule is pretty accurate by 2008 I believe though Zatch Bell is probably finishing up. OTL, the mangaka broke his hand, which likely didn't occur here. So the anime follows the manga and likely also the anime is finished with its English dub.

Orderwise, it'd likely be Naruto/Naruto Shippuden, then One Piece, then Fullmetal Alchemist, then Bleach, then a Gundam show, at least with long runners. And of course, shows rotating like Zatch Bell and the like. Gurren Lagann is probably at midnight. Fair bit of anime and so on cycling throughout the years.

That's good to hear.

Well, considering OTL's time constraints, I had the block end at midnight maximum, but as long as the at least air some Friday night encores or start later, then running up to 2AM could work:

(Toonami lead-in)
6:00: Batman: The Brave and the Bold(encore from Friday)
6:30: Ben 10: Alien Force(encore from Friday)

(TOONAMI)
7:00: Zatch Bell!(new)
7:30: MAR(new)
8:00: Sgt. Frog(new)
8:30: Prince of Tennis(new)
9:00: Naruto Shippuden(new)
9:30: One Piece(new)
10:00: Bleach(new)
10:30: Fullmetal Alchemist(new)
11:00: Gundam 00(new)
11:30: Moribito(new)
12:00: Gurren Lagann(new)
12:30: Code Geass(new)
1:00: Inuyasha
1:30: Dragon Ball Z

Not bad, but don't worry too much about it or focus on it. After all, Toonami and Disnippon are undergoing a bit of a transition during the late 2000s. Toonami will definitely have a steady block, consisting of the Big 3 along with some others.

That's good to hear. Will Nickelodeon still rebrand next year? And we have a new age of cartoons to look forward to soon.

We should make a new TL together!

Unsure and yeah, still figuring stuff out.

I appeciate the offer, but not sure right now.

Life of Another Me: An All Iowa Tale
Early Leftovers​

OOC:My keyboard broke and I had to get a new one
Ellsworth as a small town has changed much since the 80's. Small businesses that would have gone belly up survived the farm crisis and those moving from the countryside were saved thanks to government policy, with downtown changing seemingly little. Small business included the A&M Mart, the Bank, Grandmothers Attic the coffee house, The Sister Act antique store, and a sorta small yet still big bagel factory in town. The surrounding turkey farms would continue all the same, as policy has helped them to thrive. Jewel, the nearby town, would be doing three times as good with the school.
Jewel was a town I spent plenty of time in. School would be where I met my out of town friends and how I learned about the outside world. History would be my favorite subject, while I had trouble with math, though was able to learn better thanks to better teaching methods. Downtown the bowling alley would host functions and a small arcade where I met friends to bowl. The bank would have the 4-H club where I would set up projects and where I took part in events and learning about how to take care of animals or on other concepts. Webster City and Ames were the most interesting for what they offered.
Webster City hosted the county fair with all its events, animal shows, the race, and food. There is much competition showing animals at the fair, though I still had my moments in the fair. Local races at the track would include the events that needed the seating, and local racers to race each other for a local trophy. I would also enjoy making art for the 4-H building, where I made a few items including a metal structure. A few times though my siblings got something even better, the complete purple ribbon and trophy that gave them a ticket to show at the Iowa State Fair. Ames was the place where my family got what we couldn't get in town and for my fathers job. Ames as a city has people from all over the world, and I met many people as I went to town from many places, helping to expand my horizons. Time to time I went with my father to his job working at the university with seeds, though I spent much time away in a unused office on the computer.

No worries and glad to see you more here. Would this be during early 2000s regarding your years?

Yeah, going on to maybe around 2008-2009

 

[CountDVB]

Ooh nice. Yeah, the 2000s of this time will be familair yet different. Alot less plastic stuff in stores, more town/community gardens and so on. Pop culture would be somewhat the same though without 9/11 stuff or things like fast fashion, but I think alot of the aesthetics and so on would remain familiar.

Spring 2009- Eruptions and Libraries

The World Digital Library logo
​

Spring was turning out to be relatively quiet for the most part as people were settled in over for a Snowe presidency. For the most part, President Snowe's outline would be to go and maintain the economic stability the nation had been experiencing. At the same time, there was also looking what could be improved or adjusted right now. For right now, President Snowe was indulging in being America's first woman president in with some plans to aid women in various fields of politics. While harassment and similar ill behavior have gone down significantly over the year, there was still work to be done and putting in systems of accountability would be of great help. Beyond this and the usual aspects, there was looking over what were the previous administration's goals regarding further interactions with the growing online world. Given former Vice President Al Gore's enthusiasm for the Internet, it would be unsurprising after all. For the most part, things were still pretty quiet and the Snowe administration was focusing on working with Congress and the Supreme Court over for the usual. One bit of news regarding regulation would be some further regulations over regarding on the credit card industry over in late Spring, targeted at curbing fees and interest hikes along with further transparency in terms and conditions. [1]

Space would remain a prominent fascination for the public and private sectors. NASA would go and launch the Kepler Mission, a space photometer. Its objective is to search for planets in the Milky Way that could be similar to Earth and habitable by humans. [1] Another bit of space-related news would be the Space Shuttle Atlantis being launched to refurbish the Hubble Space Telescope over in May and landing at Edwards Air Force Base a couple weeks later. [2] Space exploration and the stars remained a bit of a prominent fad in pop culture though it also remained a heavy topic of discussion. The discussions focused on financial practicality, sustainability, and so on; topics like getting the materials in space and dealing with the effects that current rocketry had over on the atmosphere. Though speaking of of large fiery plumes, Alaska's Mount Redoubt would erupt explosively for the first time in 20 years after emitting steam and volcanic ash for weeks. [1]

Across the world, things were mostly peaceful though there remained conflict. It was looking like things were beginning to calm there in those regions too. The International Criminal Court would issue an arrest warrant for Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Darfur, becoming the first sitting head of state to be indicted by the ICC since its establishment in 2002. [2] Various international groups maintained their eye on the situation along with the neighboring countries. Ethiopia in particular as they were becoming more recognized as a regional power. As such, the desire to flex their muscles and further assert their influence was an enticing opportunity. Meanwhile, Albania and Croatia would end up joining CETO after years of hard work and dedication. CETO maintained its purpose in allowing Central and Eastern Europe to defend itself and other nations like Ukraine were hard at work at fulfilling the requirements. Of course, the question remained on if whether or not they would go and also join NATO. While not a requirement (and the purpose was as a form of compromise), the two organizations sharing standards and traditions means that it would be very easy and quick for any CETO member to join NATO. In more news regarding conflict, after nearly a quarter-century of fighting, the Sri Lankan Civil War would end with the total military defeat of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam. [2] With it dying down, the various powers around would try and provide aid to go and deal with rebuilding. And over in more optimistic news, UNESCO would launch The World Digital Library.
