say wha......?
Okay, remember how last week, I said I was going to watch SG-U this week because of the cliff-hanger ending and all the dead characters?
SPOILER ALERT!
Well, this week, it was another plotless ramble through the whiners. The dead characters were alive again, without mention or acknowledgment of the previous episode. What I think might have happened is the shows were switched in sequence.
I have found reviews from the episode "Time" that assumed, as I did, that we were going to get a "part II," but no reviews of this episode, "Life," mention that, oh, BTW, at the end of the last episode everyone was *dead*.
Chloe is alive in all her whiny-ness, as is Scott. It's possible that Chloe will develop an anti-Scott reaction in the future, once it hits home that he has a son. That'll free her up to get together with Eli, which means (shudders) we've no chance of ever being free of her.
ETA:
Okay, this is bogus: I did a little more hunting around the web and found this blog entry:
http://www.chicagonow.com/blogs/show-patrol/2009/11/stargate-universe-time-travel-explained-i-think.html
Which contains a video (link is to Youtube, but I think it's a webisode from "SyFy") which explains it all. I think it's cheating to do that, myself. Webisodes are supposed to be sort of Easter eggs, not vehicles for major plot points without which you cannot follow the story.
Anyway, folks who want to know the "solution" (quotes were this blogger's) to the "Time" mess, watch that video.
Mood updated from "confused" to "enraged."

Obligatory SG-U post...
Those who have not seen the latest ep.... turn away.
Spoilers!
Okay. Now that they're gone...
This was much better than previous episodes. The conceit of seeing much of the action through the "eye" of the Keno was problematic for me. If I had not realized it was temporary, I seriously would have stopped watching ten minutes in. I mean, people! you've been boring for most of the previous episodes, you really can't afford to get fancy. I found the scene-shifts, with the focusing and jolting sideways, dizzying. Never dealt well with that stuff in the best of moods. Only the knowledge that this, too, would pass kept me watching at all.
Though this episode was anything but boring. We had all kinds of action, and for once, the ship wasn't solving their problem for them. I mean, we have a Mysterious Ailment, Horrible Creatures (though why no one notices their resemblance to the Goua'ald is beyond me) a Non-Working Stargate and a Deadline! I find it beyond unlikely that the cure for an ailment picked up on one world coincidentally exists on another. Forget the laws of physics, ye canna change the laws of biology! The episode ended in a cliffhanger, which is common at this point in a series' development, kind of an added push to make the networks keep you on. Your audience wants to know what happens next. You don't want another Alien Nation on you hands, do you?
The good things? We got to kill Chloe -- twice! the bad? Since we're dealing with a series of paradoxes, she'll probably end up alive at the conclusion of the next episode. She does actually almost make herself useful in this episode, except for it being something that didn't happen, eh?
Still, it's enough better that I'll watch the episode that straightens this mess out. Now, if only they could come up with some more likable characters...

Yahoo FAIL
Everyone remember when Yahoo beta-tested their "new, improved" homepage, and how delighted people were to find a link at the bottom to, "Return to Yahoo Classic?" Well, no more. Now the New Yahoo is the Only Yahoo, with auto-opening menus and links and all. There is, however, a link at the bottom to allow you too leave feedback. I have done so. I encourage everyone who can't stand things opening without warning and blocking their view of the page they're navigating to do the same. Leave feedback, I mean, not open a menu that blocks their view.
Here's what I left:
I hate, hate, HATE this new design!
Every time I roll the mouse across the screen, it pauses and enlarges every single link, making it almost IMPOSSIBLE to navigate. When the beta was launched, I went to Classic as soon as I realized it was still available.
This is, quite possibly, the worst idea Yahoo has ever come up with. It's so annoying that it will keep me from visiting Yahoo for many things that I used to use Yahoo for. I cannot stand the constant, automatic menus opening all over the place. What, people are too lazy to click a button now?
I understand you want to improve services, but this is NOT an improvement. This is horrible. If you disabled the auto-menu functions, it might be workable. But the way it is, the site is basically unusable.

Okay,,, again...
Another Ep. of SG-U.
You're losin' me, folks, and I don't think I'm the only one.
Slightly less whining, right. But really, Cloe explaining that she can't believe how shallow her lifestyle was does *not* forgive how useless she has been the entire series. She doesn't even hand out rations. She never volunteers for anything. She... well, you know my feelings about Chloe.
And do we really need a fairly-explicit sex scene? For a show that airs at 9:00 EST? I don't recall and "M" rating at the beginning.
It also requires us to believe a character would be able to make the intellectual leap to accept that someone else is inhabiting the body she is seeing, and that someone is who she is getting intimate with, not the person whose body it actually is. I think most of us would have difficulty carrying our acceptance of the what the stones work that far, and we've been seeing them in use for a few years now.
As for the implication of an affair between Young and TJ... you did lose me there. Fraternization between ranks is a tricky business, and moreso when the lower-ranked person is female, and the higher, male. And we're talking quite a distance here -- lieutenant to colonel. Not that I don't believe it happens -- not *that* naive -- just that I don't believe that these two characters would engage in such.
And, once again, the ship has proven itself to be smarter than they are.
On the plus side, the other characters are finally beginning to grasp that they are the Robinsons and Rush is Dr. Smith.
I'm thinking one more episode, then I'm gone until someone tells me it's gotten good.

Bored now...
But I may give SG-U another try or so. The characters don't whine quite as much as they did at first, so maybe the test audiences were complaining about it, too. Of course, in these Modern Times, we all have that capability.
However, the @#$#@#@ ship is still solving their problems for them.
"Oh noes! We iz outta...(phil in blank)_________!)"
"Ship iz stopN at a plannut."
"Plannut iz rilly inhospitable. But it haz whut we needz."
"Plus, iz subext haf R companions might kan B Dr, Smith."
Oh, and Lieutenant Scott iz n danjur agin. This iz b-cuz Chloe iz so boring, only thing we kan think uv 4 her 2 do iz worry about Lt. Scott.
Honestly, I completely forgot about it and had to watch it on Hulu. This latest episode was a slight improvement, but since they were already heading for Lost in Ratings, it's hard to see how it couldn't be.

Treat or trick
Thanks to the Slow Death of a Holiday, Trick-or-treating is now relegated to set hours. Here in Lake Woebegone, it is only one hour, that being from 6-7. Oddly, all the nearby towns that set time limits have them from 6-8. Possibly the thinking is because we are smaller, that gives kids time to go to the next town over and hit some houses there. (That's eight miles; ain't happening without mommy's help, but a 15 minute ride would give them 45 to see what they could score there.)
Possibly.
Or maybe modern-day adults hate childhood.
Anyway, my final count appears to be 48. An improvement over last year's 37, but way down from the other 9 Halloweens I've lived here, when numbers were well into the 70s and sometimes 80s.
Keep in mind, this is a town with a pop. of about 700, 60+% of whom are over the age of 60.

Dear people driving ginormous pick-up trucks
Please.
- Look before you back up.
- Back out of your driveway slowly. Preferably at a considerably lower speed than the speed limit of the road you are backing onto, which in htis case is (I am Not Making This Up) 15.
- It is generally traditional to stop at the end of your driveway, and look both ways before entering the roadway, which you are, remember, doing backwards.
Oh, and also?
- It is traditional to look both ways before pulling out of a parking space in a lot even if you are moving forwards.
Loff,
Me

Okay...
I've now see the Pilot, episode 2 and episode 3 of Stargate Universe. Which I am finding myself thinking of as Stargate:Voyager.
In case you couldn't guess....
SPOILERS!
First.
As mentioned by ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) j_cheney , there are logic issues.
Second.
There is (with the exception of Eli and Colonel Young) there seems to be far too much whining going on. IRL, I would expect the military folks to just button down and bear it. They are, after all, trained to deal with untenable situations, and (presumably) these are the best of the best, selected over hundreds or even thousands of other Air Force folks for coveted slots in the Stargate project. To be fair, Johnson's first response to the crisis is to roll up her sleeves and get to work, so we can put her in the non-whiner category, too. Greer makes things a little more interesting, but frankly, random acts of violence can be as annoying in a permanent character as whining.
Third.
Dr. Rush. The other characters can't stand him. They can't stand him for a very good reason. He is far beyond a jerk. Unfortunately, it appears he's set up to be the hero of the piece, though any of the others (including Greer) would make more interesting POV characters. The problem with having a character that none of the other characters like, is that in order to explain why this would be, he has to be so utterly unpleasant that none of the audience will take to him, either.
Fourth.
Cloe. 'Nuff said.
As far as the initial plot premise bringing Eli in (he would, in my opinion, make the best POV character, since he's the true fish-out-of-water here) "won a contest" makes sense as a cover story, but the original series would have expected the viewers to all go, "riiight...." and know perfectly well that he was being spirited away for getting to close to the Truth. But all of the characters who are stuck on Destiny seem to buy that story completely. (and why isn't the show called "Stargate:Destiny"? That would be a fine title, IMHO.)
There were some good things, mostly Eli, and the bit where Scott inadvertently communicates with the aliens on the Planet of Talc.
In all, it lacks the sense of humor about itself that I, at least, have learned to associate with Stargate. And did I mention the whining? Last night, i actually found myself flipping over to another program. I probably missed about half the show, and, sad to say, didn't miss it much.
Because, well, half the show seemed to be taken up with, well, whining. Either whining into the video camera on which they're keeping their journal, or whining to each other, or just Cloe. Whining. She's supposed to be very intelligent, but all we've heard from her is .... whining.
From the other reviews I've seen, I'm not in the minority opinion here, but I might be wrong. Any dissenting opinions? Comments?
Can this baby be saved?
I personally think not without some fairly major cast overhauls, to include personality transplants for Dr. Rush and Cloe, but that might be just me.
(And yes, I'm aware that Jackson and Teal'c occassionally let their pasts get the better of them, but not for twenty minutes out of every episode.)
ETA:
Today I did find some more positive reviews. However, they fell into two categories:
The kind where the reviewer is clearly trying to be overly-polite because they don't want to hurt any feelings,
and
The ones that begin, "I'm not really a Stargate fan..."
The ones who are not fans appear to like the new series.

We need a little Christmas....
Or Solstice, Channukah, whatever.
Even though it still two
Weeks before Hallowe'en...
It's been snowing all day. hasn't stuck here, but I understand it is and it has on the hilltops.
And it's going to snow tomorrow. It was "rain with occasional snow showers" but now it's "a high of 32."
Happy, happy....
Joy, joy...
As these wet flakes are falling, the radio is cheerfully announcing that we are expecting a "warm, dry Winter in the Northeast." Northeast of what? Buffalo? Because, I'm like totally east of Buffalo. Well, somewhat east of. 90 miles-ish.
My new furnace is doing its thing. So glad to have it.

Right on, Doc! Another successful diagnosis!
For those who came late...
Back in July, I had another fall. Something went sproingy-snap, intense pain in my neck, radiating down my left arm. ensuing weakness in the arm.
My doctor ordered x-rays, which led to more x-rays, which led to the ordering of an MRI Something else went sproingy-snap a few days later, which led to the ordering of said MRI to be done *right away*. And the wearing of a cervical collar. Which I am still wearing.
Anyway, a diagnosis was made. Cervical Radiculopathy. Say it ten times fast. Go on. I dare you.
Physical therapy and a visit with the neurologist followed. Neurologist wanted me to see an apparently brilliant young neurosurgeon from Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester. He actually came to Corning, which he apparently does sometimes, which is nice.
He asked all kinds of questions, then said, "Well, you do have a herniated disc, and it's at the right level, but the fact that the physical therapy isn't helping makes me think that's not the issue. He suggested that I had an injury to my left brachial plexus. This is a nerve junction in your shoulder. He thinks there might be a neurofibroma there, too, and wants a nerve-conduction and a special type of MRI. Deal is, he said, that it was not pain from my neck radiating down to my shoulder, but pain from my shoulder, radiating *up* to my neck.
Well, got online today and did some searching. Came across an article in the journal of the American Academy of Family Physicians (American Family Physician) from November 2000 (Miller et. al.)
First line is:
"Patients with acute brachial plexus neuritis are often misdiagnosed as having cervical radiculopathy."
So.
Check out me, being all unusual and stuff.
So now I wonder...

Putting in another word...
mrockwell recently asked people to donate blood, and I added my voice. Since I'm doing that tomorrow, just putting in another plea. If you can, do. The life you save may not be your own, but it could be someone you know. Or their child. You can afford to lose a pint of blood. Your body will replace it quickly. Someone out there, this very moment, can't afford *not* to get that blood.
In other news....
My carbon monoxide detector is dead. I told the guy in the hardware store that it was alternating between saying it was getting a reading of 271, it had no batteries, or that the world was ending. He said the third seemed most likely.
The first I discount because the cat's still alive every day when I come home.
The second, well, I changed the batteries and it still complained.
The last....?
The new one appears to work. It's more simple-minded. It doesn't have a meter, just a light and a sound alarm. So far, it's been plugged in for half an hour and doesn't think the world is ending. In any case, I will call furnace guy again about that inspection.

Donating blood
I was just checking outmrockwell 's plea for blood donations, and thought I'd add my voice to hers.
Only 3% of people in America do it.
60% of people are eligible donors.
Some people are ineligible, but far more claim to be than are.
For instance, you cannot donate blood if you've had a *recent* tattoo. Yet, I've known people who had tattoos that were years old who said, "Oh, I can't donate, because I have a tattoo."
Ditto transfusions.
I've heard dozens of excuses. Of the people I know who say they are not eligible donors, only one is correct. (And she used to donate, before she became ineligible.)
Many employers host clinics, and will give any employee who wishes to donate permission to leave their work area to do so. Some employers will allow time to leave work entirely to donate blood. (Most of the time, it has to be within reason, of course. For example, the donation site is down the block and you ask for an hour to do so. And you'd better come back with one of those 'be nice to me" stickers!)
A single donation can save up to three lives.
There are two types of donation: whole blood, which anyone over 16 and 105 pounds can do, and platelet donation (apheresis) which requires a person to be at least 110 pounds and/or 5'6" (I believe that's the right height, can't find it on the website at the moment.)
Most of the eligible apherersis donors are men.
I donate whole blood and have ever since my medical condition was taken off the 'ineligible' list (which happened when the Powers That Be learned enough about it to understand it was genetic.) I cannot donate platelets.
My next donation appointment is on Tuesday.
If you're not sure where and when you can donate, call your local radio station, newspaper, or Red Cross office.
Taken from the Red Cross Website:
Ten Remarkable Facts About Blood Donation
•4.5 million Americans would die each year without life saving blood transfusions.
•Every three seconds, someone needs blood.
•Just one pint of donated blood can help save as many as three people’s lives. (One unit of blood is approximately equivalent to one pint.)
•About three gallons of blood support the entire nation’s blood needs for one minute.
•Blood donation doesn’t take long. The entire process, from when you sign in to the moment you leave, takes only about 45 minutes. The actual donation usually takes less than 10 minutes.
•You cannot get AIDS or any other infectious disease by donating blood.
•Anyone who is in good health, is at least 17 years old and weighs at least 110 pounds can donate blood every 56 days.
•Giving blood will not decrease your strength.
•If you began donating blood at age 17 and donated every 56 days until you reached 76, you would have donated 48 gallons of blood.
•There is no substitute for human blood!
And on top of all of this, they give you cookies! it's win-win.

It's that time of year again....
Time for Ralan's annual fund drive.
Ralan maintains his market list website free of charge, and updates entries frequently. He also includes information about writing,selling what you write and is always willing to offer advice, hunt down lost markets, or do whatever else his many friends and visitors need. He provides a truly valuable service to the SF writing community, and I don't think it's too much to ask to occasionally chip in to help defray operation costs. It's cheaper (and far more reliable, not to mention, more cromulent) than The Writer's Market.
To donate...

Bucket list, eh?
Hmm... not only US-biased, but fairly able-bodied biased. How the frell am I supposed to go water-skiing? I put yes for snow-skiing only because they didn't specify "downhill." Went cross-country skiing once, whereupon it was decided that I was never to do that again, by powers greater than myself. There is plenty of interesting stuff not on here that I have done. Piloted a tall ship. Driven across North America East to West. Been to Africa. Won prizes at an old-fashioned County Fair (at old-fashioned rates!) And what is "seen someone on fire" doing on a list of things to do before you die? I saw Michael Jackson once, from a great distance (My mom and I were, in fact, at Disneyland -- down there on the list -- in the finicula, and saw him far below us and several hundred yards to the right.) He later caught on fire. Does that count?
