• Media
  
  • N. Y. Times to reduce page size, slash jobs
    C and I just discussed the future of newspapers this weekend with my brother, who is an editor.
    
• Movies
  
  • Kiefer Sutherland Headlines Final Movie Cast
    In a total blast from the past, they are making a DragonLance animated movie, featuring Kiefer Sutherland as Raistlin, Lucy Lawless as Goldmoon, Michael Rosenbaum as Tanis Half-Elven, and Michelle Trachtenburg as Tika.
    
• Politics
  
  • Bush blocked probe into spying
    According to Gonzales, Bush himself was the one who wouldn't allow investigators access to look into the warrentless eavesdropping! So he is Nixon after all.
    
  • Women misled on abortion risks
    As always the case in politics, why discuss science with reasoning and data, when you can just lie instead?
    
• Science
  
  • Virgin Galactic plans space flights by 2008
    I'm amazed and excited that their plans are to begin flights just 2 years from now. And for a mere $200,000 you can reserve your tickets now!
    
• Television
  
  • CW mixes new and old
    Veronica Mars will have a late start on the new network, Oct. 3rd, but will follow the Gilmore Girls so I think it should definitely increase its audience.

Thanks for the links, especially about VM!

Random side note, but every time I see Richard Branson's name, I get a weird feeling that Matt is going to work for him someday. I will try and get us all discounts on space flights, should that be the case. :p

Awesome. Of course, that means y'all will end up living in New Mexico if that is the case, at least if it is part of Virgin Galactic. But I will gladly appreciate it if you sent coupon our way!!!
