BSG return date from Ausiello:
Question: What the frak! Is Battlestar Galactica ever returning? -- Ken
Ausiello: Good news: A Sci Fi source confirms to me exclusively that the last half of season 4 premieres on Friday, Jan. 16, at 10 p.m. Which, by my calculations, puts the series finale (boo-hoo!) at Friday, March 20. Viewing party at Tim Stack's place, and you're all invited.
(Bold and red mine.)
So travels with child is a year old at the end of the month. I'm kind of in awe - with the help of a number of people here, we've rolled out 250 posts, and crossed a couple of big traffic threshholds. We're running ad-free. It's a lot of fun. And in the midst of everything else, I'm very grateful for it.
I went back and read the postcards we did for mother's day and thought it would be a good part of the one-year hoopla if I opened that up again...
So if you've wanted to post something about a trip you took w/ your parents that rocked, or a trip you took with your kid that was something special - or whatever - pick up a blank card here: at our flickr group and drop one in the flickr group.
We just switched out summer to winter clothes and have a lot that mac has outgrown. I thought it might be time to do a Buffista clothing swap again, if you are interested email me with the following info:
What size clothes you have? If they are for boy or girl What size clothes you need? If you are willing to send even if you will not receive.
I will email people with info on who to send clothes to and will keep a chart, so if you never get stuff I can try to track it down.
Just to let you know, every dollar you donate today to No on Prop 8 (California initiative that would make it illegal for gays to marry) is being matched. Details and donation link are here: [link]
I'm so pleased to announce I'll be a regular guest blogger at Cocktail Party Physics: [link]
I'll be joining prestigious science writers Jennifer Ouellette, M.G. Lord, Diandra Leslie-Pelecky and more for physics with a twist.
So excited!
I'll be reading with Kim "In The Aeroplane Over the Sea" Cooper and Scott "If You're Feeling Sinister" Plagenhoef at the Hammer Museum in LA tomorrow evening at 7 pm. It's free! The reading will include a video or two of Richard & Linda Thompson making music plus some audio comparisons of RT's music and a snippet of an interview. If you're in LA, please come! If you're not in LA, I think there's some cheap last-minute tickets available.

My profile addy is good, though it looks like the nearest Buffista lives more than 90 miles away.
I have 3 Nightmare Before Christmas promo iPod skins that I got at the Halloween showing of NBC in 3-D. It is pictured in this auction [link] (note: this is not my auction and I don't think these work for an iPod touch). First 3 who email me can have them - I'll ship for free. Happy Halloween!
UPDATE: All gone.
