The LHC is now online! Despite concerns to the contrary, the world was not sucked into a black hole. Personally, I’m feeling okay.

You spent three months in isolation. You spent sixteen hours a day rehearsing. You also spent five to ten minutes a day peeing and pooping in your adult diapers. If any of these cherished memories belong to you, you were probably a performer in the Olympics’ opening ceremonies. They sure did make it look good…

After five seasons and 100 episodes, Stargate Atlantis has been cancelled. It follows in the footsteps of SG-1 as it lives on in an indefinite number of straight-to-DVD movies.
