China's first cloned calf died, but the second is doing well, they say. i hadn't heard that China was cloning anything, but this seems to be less about science than about the commercial possibilities (the industrialization of cloning technology). glad to see someone's going forward with it.

Dark Horizons "has word on a new Disney flick about garden gnome romance (and as its Disney it'll be clean so get your mind out of the gutter)."
garden gnomes are evil little beasties that will attack and devour you. they don't know how to love. all they think about is their hunger for human flesh. Disney should not portray them as cutesy little friends who live in your garden, an obvious attempt to take garden gnomes mainstream and make them acceptable. if this movie goes forward, i predict that gnomes will be 'the new thing' and that, across the world, four of five homes will place garden and yard gnomes throughout their property. it'll give the little bastards the numbers and positions they need to successfully rise up, devour most of us and enslave the survivors. we can't let this happen. we must stop Disney and destoy all gnomes.

this article, "Why She Slays Us" (a good read in itself), mentions an upcoming book i'm going to have to get: Fighting the Forces: What's at Stake in Buffy the Vampire Slayer?
an email from a friend at the DEQ:
I just spoke to [a woman] who said she was tortured by the Al Qaeda and watched her family die and that Osama bin Laden owns this landfill where they will release these toxic chemicals that will kill her because she's allergic to everything. She is the only case known to science and her son John Adams the sixth took her to washington to plead her case.
isn't insanity cute?

although it sounds a little like something from the surrealist complement generator, here's the description for a program i'd like to watch:
From the cockpit of a Tornado Fighter Bomber, dip into the history of margarine and plankton, dance at the ballet Copelia, and blow up a dam in Norway with a British commando team to find out why and how Hitler never harnessed heavy water and the A-Bomb.
"Connections" on Discovery Science.

A federal judge in San Francisco ruled against George Lucas in his suit to block the producers of pornographic Star Wars-like movies from distributing their products, E! Online reported. The judge decided against blocking the sale of the animé saga of Wank Solo, clearing the way for Star Ballz creator Media Market Group to resume hawking the $14.95 video online, the site reported.
