EDITOR IN CHIEF: Go ask Copy.
BUSINESS EDITOR: Hey Copy, what's the style for "Power Ranger"?
COPY EDITOR: There's no stylebook entry for "Power Ranger." I think the most appropriate synonym in the stylebook is "superhero."
BUSINESS EDITOR: Seriously, let's ignore the stylebook on this one.
EDITOR IN CHIEF: What? We never ignore the stylebook.
BUSINESS EDITOR: Even when it's stupid?
EDITOR IN CHIEF: We don't need a stylebook to tell us what makes sense. We need a stylebook to tell us what doesn't.
BUSINESS EDITOR: But "Superhero" is a shared copyright of Marvel and Time Warner. That's going to get us in some shit.
COPY EDITOR: I think "Power Rangers" is a copyright of the Bandai corporation.
BUSINESS EDITOR: Time Warner has tougher lawyers.
COPY EDITOR: We're a newspaper. They can't sue us for that.
BUSINESS EDITOR: They're Time Warner lawyers. They can sue us for eating breakfast.
EDITOR IN CHIEF: WE ARE NOT BREAKING THE STYLEBOOK. End of discussion.

Get the Stayfe mug.Safari Style is a sexual position that is a variation of the "doggy style" position.
Safari Style starts with the female being on all fours and the male inserting himself from behind. As he penetrates the female, he leans over her and breathes heavily and grunts into the female's ear, mimicking that of a lion in the desert.
