You just can't tell

The Commissar has made up a handy chart so you can tell the difference between Michele and Michelle. I'm serious.

New RIAA Deceit

Check out this post at Security Focus for more info. See also annoyed people at the Beastie Boys message board. Thanks to John who pointed this out to me (update: he found it on memepool).

Update (Ian): I'll note that this is regarding the European release. Euro versions tend to be protected more often than US ones, so the US release may not be "damaged" in that way.

Charles Krauthammer increases the volume on recent thoughts that Arafat and the Pallies have lost and Sharon and Israel have won by building the wall.

Wonderfalls Episode 6 Script

Bryan Fuller has donated it to savewonderfalls.com. This is 'Barrel Bear', not Muffin Buffalo which some people had labeled as six. The rest are available in .pdf from JIAH -- while they are listed in correct order the files are named wrong. Link via Whedonesque.

Putin says he has intelligence that Saddam was cooperating with Osama. That means pretty much everyone on the planet except the 9/11 commission knew that.

Gay and lesbian activists are "fuming" because Bush refused to declare June as "Gay Pride Month". Misha puts things in their proper perspective.

Move along home

Paramount's finally releasing the original Star Trek in season box sets with extras on DVD (previously it was available as half a ton of individual DVDs with 2 eps and no extras each - not a very good deal). The first season box hits August 21st, the significance of which should be obvious to certain people. In related news, box sets of The Animated Series and Enterprise are expected in early 2005.

Levin Resigns?

This blurb mentions that "The man who sent the Angel cast to the unemployment line, may soon be joining them." The post has since been updated with links to the Hollywood Reporter and Variety that confirm it. Apparently he was told he would be demoted and decided to step down. Photoshop commentary from a fan (the inimitable prufrock of Whedonesque).

Ghost of the Robot Dissolves

Man, I'm starting to feel like the computer hardware and entertainment correspondent here at the Terran :) Well, that and logo monkey! Today I bring you news that James Marsters has dissolved his band Ghost of the Robot. More at their official site. Could be related to recent mentions that James got funding to pursue a production of MacBeth for the big screen. Reports are he bagged $50 million to run with that project.
