Hello everyone,
my name is Katharina and I am a student from Germany. I am giving a presentation about the word ''Frak'' in my ''Im/Politeness in Cultural Contexts'' seminar and would like to ask you all for your help by answering a few questions :-)
1) I am collecting a list with all the various uses/forms of frak (frack). I already have a nice list with the various uses of the word but I am happy to hear from you how and in which way you use it. :-) My research goal is to find out if and how (much) the word 'Frak' enters the English language, even outside of fan culture.
2) It would be great if you could answer the following few question, which you will find in my journal:
http://mary-mcsmile.livejournal.com/3352.html
Does anyone have, by any chance, the CNN article ''What the Frak?'' from 2008 saved and could me provide with it? CNN had to take the article down, but I was hoping someone might have saved it ;-) Thanks for your help, it's very much appreciated :-) P.S.: Comments are welcome!

| Portlandia - 2x02: One Moore Episode |

Last week nicole_anell posted (HERE) about an episode of the tv show PORTLANDIA that featured a sketch on BSG featuring EJO, James Callis and Ron Moore. The episode was available to watch online, but only if you lived in the USA. The episode aired last night and I downloaded it and edited it to just the 3 BSG segments. So for those of us that live outside the USA and didn't get to see it, here it is....
YOU HAVE TO WATCH THIS!!!! The last segment with EJO, James and Ron (starting from timestamp 06:18) is LOL funny.

| EJO and James Callis on IFC's Portlandia! |

Didn't see this posted yet. "One Moore Episode" is set to air on January 13th, but the full episode has been streaming online for a few days now. If case you haven't seen it yet, here's the link -- http://www.ifc.com/portlandia/videos/portlandia-one-moore-episode (only available in the US, I think)
"Portlandia" is a sketch show based around the city of Portland, with a lot of deadpan and hipster-based humor.
The BSG segments start at 4:43, 12:48, and 19:21 (the last one featuring James, EJO, and Ron Moore) if you want to skip ahead to them.
