I haven't posted in a while (busy at work) so to save space I'm putting some of these up without comments, but they are all worthy of peek, even the funny sounding ones.

• Movies/Television
• Fraggle Rock Returns
• Jackson Loses the Hobbit
  New Line decides to shop this around after a contract dispute. Can they be that dense?
  
• Politics
• Military faces battles over religion (Specifically Wiccan symbols on military headstones)
  
• Science
• Going for a blast into the real past (An actual time-travel expirement proposed)
  
• Moon's Magnetic Umbrella Seen as Safe Haven for Explorers
• NASA Studies Manned Asteroid Mission
• NASA Weighs U.S. Strategy for Moon Exploration
• Sharpest cut from nanotube sword (The secret of wootz?)
  
• Space mirror could create Earth-like haven on Mars
• Society
• Room for gay penguins in school libraries? (Hey, we have this book!)
  
• U.S. mint pushes new $1 coin with images of past presidents
  
• Technology
• Exploring the Online Gaming World
  Excellent audio interview discussing virtual economies with author Julian Dibbell.
  
• Physics promises wireless power (Yay, no more power adapters!)
  
• Shakespeare coming to a virtual world
• What do Paris Hilton and Second Life have in common?
  I've posted several links that extol Second Life, but this one has an opposite and interesting view.  I also saw yesterday someone introduced a worm to Second Life that caused shining rings to appear  in the game. The more characters attempted to interact with the rings, the more they spawned.  They are calling it "grey goo". :))

I know! "Thanks for having artistic vision, creating probably the best movie trilogy ever made, winning 11 Oscars, and making us a ton of money. But since we have this small argument, you can know go away while we totally destroy these other stories that are totally bound up with your original movies." WTF?!

Well, Disney finally came to it's senses about Pixar, so maybe there is hope. But, man, can people be stupid.
