  • Why does the same single season of the Simpsons keep airing in syndication?

    Posted by admin on March 31st, 2011 and filed under syndication | 1 Comment »

    On the local channel(Twin Cities) that airs the Simpsons in syndication, they have been showing the same recent season over and over for months. This is a show that has more than 20 seasons to draw from, so why would they repeatedly air the same 20 or so episodes? I can’t see anyone getting excited to watch an episode they saw a week and a half earlier, and a week and a half before that, and so on.

    probably cheap for the tv station to buy

    DOES SYNDICATE BANK EXISTS?

    Posted by admin on March 29th, 2011 and filed under bank syndicate | 1 Comment »

    SOME SENT ME AN INFORMATION ABOUT A DEPOSIT WITH THE SYNDICATE BANK OF LONDON. SHE IS FROM SENEGAL REFUGEE CAMP. SHE CLAIMS THE MONEY WAS DEPOSITED BY HER LATE FATHER FOR HER AS THE NEXT OF KIN. HOW TRUE COULD THIS BE?

    It’s a scam, report it ASAP. There is no syndicate bank in the UK. There is no truth in this email of yours.

    What does it mean that Secretariat was syndicated?

    Posted by admin on March 27th, 2011 and filed under syndicates | 7 Comments »

    If it means they virtually sold shares of the horse… I am confused why someone would do that? Wouldn’t an owner make more money by keeping all shares of a horse and earning all the profit from him?

    The reason that people syndicate a stallion for stud duty is to spread the risk of standing him at stud.

    If every horse that was a superior racehorse became the sire of superior racehorses when he goes to stud, then breeding horses would be an easy business. But it doesn’t always work out that way. Just for example, Spectacular Bid, one of the best Thoroughbred racehorses of the last 50 years, was syndicated for stud for a then-record value of $22 million. He went to stud at Claiborne Farm, which is one of the best Thoroughbred farms in the world. He was bred to some of the best race mares and broodmares in the country, his babies went to some of the top trainers in the country, and he failed miserably as a stallion. He never sired a horse that even came close to his own quality.

    People who breed Thoroughbred racehorses have no sentiment when it comes to their bank balances. They don’t care how wonderful a horse was as a racehorse, if his babies don’t win at the racetrack, they will not send mares to breed to him. And that’s pretty much what happened to "Bid." When it became apparent that he was not going to be successful as a sire of racehorses, he was sold to a farm in upstate New York, and he ended up being used as a sire of hunters and jumpers, standing for a very low stud fee.

    Syndicating the stallion spreads the risk; usually the owner retains a few shares in him, but selling most of the shares gives the owner a pot of money up front.

    Syndicating a stallion is also a way of getting him access to the best mares possible. For the last 20 years, standing a stallion at stud has been a numbers game: the leading first-year sires usually have at least 70-80 foals from his first crop. There aren’t many individual owners who have that many mares to breed to a single horse, and at least up until the past few years, breeders were reluctant to support a stallion that they didn’t own at least one share in. So to get him the number of quality mares that it usually takes to get him up high on the general sires list, you almost had to syndicate him and sell at least half the shares in the syndicate. (Most stallions are syndicated into something around 40 to 60 shares, with the original owner usually retaining from 20% to 50% of the shares. It used to be that each share gave the owner of the share the right to breed one mare per year to the horse, but nowadays a share is more likely to give the owner the right to breed two mares per year to the horse.)

    Right now, the market is changing. People are a lot less willing to pay huge prices to buy a share in an unproven horse, and there are a lot fewer people who are breeding Thoroughbreds than there were just 5 years ago, and people who are breeding aren’t breeding as many mares. So the market for stallions has gone down dramatically. People who want to send a stallion to stud are finding that they can’t readily syndicate him, and there’s a lot of wheeling and dealing that goes on with unproven stallions now.

    Prior to the 1960’s, the business was completely different: most stallions were owned by the people who bred or raced them, and were essentially "private" stallions. For example, Secretariat’s sire, Bold Ruler, stood his entire career at Claiborne Farm as the private property of Wheatley Stable (the Phipps family). You just couldn’t buy a breeding to Bold Ruler unless you were a friend of the Phipps family. That was true for most stallions.

    Right now, the Thoroughbred breeding business is in the biggest state of change that I’ve seen it since I started following racing and breeding in the mid-1960’s. Things are really shaking down.

    How does this sound. I need advice, critique, whatever. Be brutally honest, but nothing disrespectful!?

    Posted by admin on March 21st, 2011 and filed under sound syndicate | 2 Comments »

    Hello everyone, it’s been a while since I’ve asked a question. Well I need some advice. I plan on transferring next year to SCAD in the winter and I’ve been applying to as many scholarships as I possibly can to help me pay for tuition. Long story short I came across something this is the letter I need to send in to the judge to allow me to be submitted for the scholarship. Critique beginsssssss. NOW.
    —————————————————————————————————–
    Salutations,

    My name is —————, I’m a 20 year old inspiring and upcoming animator and sequential artist who is currently attending college at Georgia Perimeter College. I will be transferring next year to Savannah College of Art and Design located in Atlanta to further my studies of the arts. I haven’t actually taken any classes yet at Savannah College of Art in Design, but I’ve been accepted to start in January of 09; the winter quarter. As enthusiastic as I am about going to Savannah College of Art and Design, I also have feelings of discouragement knowing how much tuition is for the school! I’ve been searching the web for scholarships since the summer of 07, when I first started college at Gerogia Perimeter College. Since I didn’t have to pay out of pocket while attending Georgia Perimeter College, I used that time to look up other scholarships online that would help me pay for tuition once I transferred to Savannah College of Art and Design. I received a scholarship from Savannah College of Art and Design for $5,000, but It expired since I had to take an extra 2 semesters at Georgia Perimeter College. I still didn’t let that bring me down, my passion for cartooning and comics was too strong to allow me to just give up. I continued to search the web for scholarships. I knew that there had to be free money available; in the form of a scholarship, for cartoonist who want to pursue a career in animation and sequential art. Waiting for a fortunate college student like myself to discover. While surfing the Internet one day I decided to visit one of my favorite sites for all things art, which was drawn.ca. There was a posted article on the site about a scholarship tcreated in memory of the syndicate editor, Jay Kennedy. As I begin to read the article I was immediately convinced to enter this scholarship. I clicked on the link that led to a page where I could print out an application and enter for a chance to win this amazing scholarship, but then as I read the official rules for the contest it stated that you have to be at least a junior or senior in college. It was sad news when I read this because I’m only considered to be a sophomore now in college. I met all the other qualifications except for that one stipulation. This would have been a perfect opportunity for me to take advantage of, especially considering the fact that the contest is a genre of art targeted mainly towards my area of prestige. My purpose for typing this letter to you is to ask you, if possible could the contest allow a enthusiastic, optimistic, cartoonist like myself to enter for a chance to win the scholarship; even though I’m a sophomore and not yet a junior. I could still use the money either way! I don’t mind working hard to achieve my goal and to get to where I need to be in life. The only blockage that I have in my life right now is the funding that I need to pay for my education. So far, my pell grant has been covering all of my tuition expenses at Georgia Perimeter College; since it’s only a 2 year college. However, when I transfer to Savannah College of Art and Design, I know that I will not be able to lean on my pell grant entirely to get me through college. I’m also doing everything on my own and not receiving any financial help from my mother or family members. It’s involuntary that my family can’t help me due to their financial situation. If they had the money to give me, they wouldn’t hesitate for a second to help me! I also want to avoid taking out any type of loans whatsoever. As I stated earlier, me and my family’s financial situation isn’t the best in the world. We are blessed to be able to make it through each day with a roof over our heads. Especially considering the state of today’s economy! With that being said, It would be crazy for me to take out any type of loan. Me attending college was completely my decision and upon my own discretion. So far, I’ve been doing good and would like to continue on through college without any interruptions are breaks. I only have 2 more years until I actually finish my major and receive my bachelors in animation and sequential art. My dream is to one day own an animation and comic book company, but until that time I must first finish school. Before I get to the point of owning an animation and comic book company I would like to work for Cartoon Network or Teletoon in Canada. Again, the purpose for me writing this letter is to only ask for a chance to prove myself. Is ther
    anyway I can enter this contest being that I am a sophomore and not a junior in college. It would be greatly appreciated if there was a way for me to get around this one flaw. Whenever you get the time please respond back to me. Until then, I’ll be busy drawing!

    FIN.

    FIN.

    You need to get to the point. What is it that you’re trying to get across to the reader?

    You have so much detail that some of it is not needed.

    Just be very blunt and get to the point.

    For instance, start off by saying how hard it was for you to find a scholarship and than proceed by saying why you’re applying for this one.

    Next cut off all that unnecessary detail, this is an essay not you’re life story. The admissions counselors are going to be reading thousands of essays, so make sure yours is straight to the point.

    They don’t need to know about your pell grant, that you’re not yet a junior, that you looked for other scholarships (and by the way why would you tell them that you were looking for other scholarships? Leave that information out) Also don’t talk about your colleges, just say that your transferring to Savannah and need the scholarship to help pay for the fees. Don’t mention anything about George Perimeter.

    Furthermore, leave out the information that you were surfing the internet for the scholarship.

    Just say that you came apond this scholarship by research and you found out that it was a great fit for you.

    Also leave out you’re age if you’re not going to spell out 20!

    Also leave out exclamation points that is unprofessional.

    And replace me with I.

    Does this explain how Rush Limbaugh could be stone deaf, yet still interact with his callers in a natural way?

    Posted by admin on March 19th, 2011 and filed under syndicate agreement | 7 Comments »

    "…Premiere On Call was a service offered by Premiere Radio Networks, the largest syndication company in the United States and a subsidiary of Clear Channel Communications, the entertainment and advertising giant. Premiere syndicates some of the more sterling names in radio, including Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, and Sean Hannity. But a great radio show depends as much on great callers as it does on great hosts: Enter Premiere On Call.

    “Premiere On Call is our new custom caller service,” read the service’s website, which disappeared as this story was being reported (for a cached version of the site click here). “We supply voice talent to take/make your on-air calls, improvise your scenes or deliver your scripts. Using our simple online booking tool, specify the kind of voice you need, and we’ll get your the right person fast. Unless you request it, you won’t hear that same voice again for at least two months, ensuring the authenticity of your programming for avid listeners.”

    The actors hired by Premiere to provide the aforementioned voice talents sign confidentiality agreements and so would not go on the record. But their accounts leave little room for doubt. All of the actors I questioned reported receiving scripts, calling in to real shows, pretending to be real people. Frequently, one actor said, the calls were live, sometimes recorded in advance, but never presented on-air as anything but real."

    I had a feeling most of that was fake. Who knew it was ENTIRELY fake?

    Does anyone know where I could get/make Crime Syndicate of America Tshirts?

    Posted by admin on March 18th, 2011 and filed under syndicate | 1 Comment »

    I like DC Comics logo shirts. I’ve been looking for the Crime Syndicate of America ones…Anyone know a place that might sell them, or a site I could make custom ones?

    This ebay store deals with custom tshirts.

    http://cgi.ebay.com/Customize-Text-T-shirts-shirts-w-name-company-etc-/220728001086?pt=US_CSA_MC_Shirts&var=&hash=item79141fd36a#ht_1015wt_932

    You can contact the seller for more custom options, such as if you have your own design.

    I’ve used this ebay store several times to purchase custom-design shirts for my college sorority. Good quality and cheap.

    Good luck!

    I have been given evidence of the following.
    A £20k wager placed at Wirriam Hill in Beijing for Spurs and Milan to be goaless last night.
    £45k on Crouch 1st scorer in the away leg a couple of weeks ago at Blet Fled in Shanghai.
    Spurs to get beaten at Blackpool, £100k bet wagered at Ladblooks in Canton.

    All bets were placed in the name of a Mr Hally Redknlapp.
