Hopefully this isn't shunned upon here like asking for links to manga or anything...
Does anybody know if there's a website where I can view the popularity polls in manga magazines? I want to see how some of my favorite manga are doing, and to see which ones are at the top and bottom.
This site list the table of contents for WSJ. The order is based on popularity polls, so it serves as a ranking.

I've been having some problems moving this .mpg video file from my camera. Whenever I try copying/cutting it, it cancels and a window pops up saying 'the parameter is incorrect.'
I suspect this has something to do with parts of the video being partially corrupted as it always shows an error message at the same spot for several seconds when played on my computer, before resuming playing the video normally (but always plays smoothly when watching from my camera), not to mention I was able to successfully copy several shorter videos recorded on the same day in the same folder.
So what I'm wondering is what's wrong with the file, and if there is some kind of program that can fix this?
If not, is there a screen recording program that's guaranteed not to fail for stuff like this? already tried numerous programs

Thank you for helping me. I am in your debt. 😃

Just because someone's head was chopped off doesn't mean they're dead. That's just silly.

they must have spent a lot of effort making it move like that....i mean each small part of its fin[?] were moving very smoothly....unless this is some sort of new advanced sex toy from japan....
They probably just used an ordinary squid's tentacles for the close-ups.

Agreed. Don't fluff the answer. Be honest.
They also often ask about what your outside interests are (beyond whatever the scholarship is for) because they like to encourage "well-rounded" people - things like campus clubs you might be interested in, sports, etc.
If you've ever thought or said "Nice Guys finish last" and really meant it, then you should probably read this LJ post by DivaLion. It's incredibly insightful whether you're male or female.

Thank you. (Since I don't have a prayer of reading Japanese yet.) =)

Hmmm... I haven't visited this site for so long so it feels like forever. A little sad.
So, here's my question:
I heard that Bakuman will have an anime adaption. WHEN 😕
I always know ahead of time
That someone life today is mine
And i know how, and i know where
I am a Maniac as you can see
