STARGATE: SG1 is coming to end after ten seasons, but according to Michael Shanks who plays Doctor Daniel Jackson, the story doesn’t end there. In the works are two STARGATE: SG1 DVD movies that will wrap up the Season 10 Ori storyline, and then there will be a new stand alone adventure featuring the return of Richard Dean Anderson. Shanks also told iF MAGAZINE in an exclusive interview what his journey as Daniel has been like, and about the new series he is going to do with fellow STARGATE alum Christopher Judge. iF MAGAZINE: How do you feel about SG1 ending? MICHAEL SHANKS: I’ve been asked that question a lot. I gauged it by my gut reaction to the news that we had gotten cancelled, and that’s usually a huge telling sign if you are lying to yourself about certain things or trying to convince yourself of other things. When we got the news my initial reaction instead of being upset or angry was “whew” and I thought what was that? I waited for the aftermath of “Wow” or “oh Jesus” or something and it was just a feeling of, that’s it and we did it and it was due. It wasn’t because it didn’t feel like we had more to do, but now was a good time. It’s been awhile and we’ve had a long run than most people expected and we’ve lasted longer than most people expected. There’s very little that we didn’t get a chance to do on that show, that we could afford to do, so there’s not a feeling of bad endings. I think when I left the show for a couple of seasons I had feelings of unfulfilled business, which is one of the reasons I came back because there was still a pull or a draw for me. This time I don’t really feel that way. I think maybe its time to close the book. iF: In the latest episodes Daniel has been undergoing some changes. Are you back to normal yet? SHANKS: I believe last Friday was my only night in latex. [Laughs] And, how often do you say that? So after that we’ll see Daniel make a return to normal. iF: So how was it being covered in latex?

Dreamweaver does cost about 400 pounds, so I would call that 'spending a lot of money'. not spending 'some' money. If you do a Google search for "open source wysiwyg html editor" you'll find a huge list of quality applications that will do the job, for free. I've used nvu ( www.nvu.com/ ) in the past, and never had a problem with it. wysiwyg = What You See is What You Get

Yeah, it's mainly something I'm doing just for myself, but if the rental servers keep biooting us off, I'd think it'd be nice to have an 'in-house' server that is dedicated, where the host dosen't care how much resourses are being used.

Yes indeed, yes indeed. No doubt some people are wondering "What in the hell happened to the iron Socialist Juggernaut?" Well, here's a very brief summery. I've been in jail, for reasons that I'd rather not get into (don't worry, it has nothing to do with anything from my online excapades). My legal bill literally costs more then I have earned in the past 6 years. And I have a reasonabally good paying job. So, I've been working 2 jobs to make ends meet, and to pay for my extravagant lifestyle. And doing odd techy jobs on the side. I recentelly got a contract with the hospital to build new billing computers. Also, I'm going to school for A+ w/ linux and networking (yes noobs, it is worth getting), doing stuff with my family (wife and kids / my own parents are getting old). That kinda stuff with my time off, no time whatsoever for foruming, IRCing, or the other stuff that I normally do. I havn't even been gaming all that much lately. This, right now is the first time I've sat down, not being wicked sore / super irritated from working and stressing out and realized that "Hey! I have some free time!" So I came here with the intention of making a few posts. Also, I've been slowly gathering the components and know-how for building a secure web server. Any fool can install apache or iis on their mothers Dell, but I intend to do it right. It's almost done, just have to sort out some software. And when it's finally done, I intend to host everything, and bring back the game servers. I plan to have it all up and running by mid-May.

whoh, that IS some great news :)

What was I doing during the murder? I was either encoding season 5 of Babylon 5 + the accumulated DVD extras, or I was out shoveling the 2 foot high snow that we got last night :( hope that helps the investigation :) Thanks for the hot tip Arktis, I must have missed the post where it defined why we all had jobs, and what we can do with them (like asking questions to the GM). I just assumed that it was a fluffy role playing thing, not an actual tool that we can use to get information.

People can send me sunlight through the internets TFMF. Just remember that the internets is a bunch of tubes that can get clogged with junk, and it's not a big truck that you can just keep loading stuff on. So don't send me all the sunlight at once, because it'll clog up the internet. /

I'm voting for mupi again, becuase I'm still not convinced that he's left town, and I'm still 100% convinced that he's a fiend.

If I WAS a fiend, I'd be doing the exact same thing that other people are doing. I'd drop a huge clue in my posts, then use the strike through tag, and put something innocent / mundane afterwards. Only difference would be that I'd be retardedly obvious about the whole thing hoping that the 'hiding in plain sight' strategy would pay off. I'd say something like Boy, I sure am planning on killing reading with TetsuoShima today in the library. Yessir, I sure am excited about the violent murder that I'm planning reading Kubla Khan to each other out loud. Yep. TetsuoShima sure is a gorram deadman that just hasn't stopped moving yet good friend. And then I'd have killed TetsuoShima in the exact method that I forshadowed in my cheeky strike throughed text. If there is one thing that I think that EVERYONE can agree on, it's that I am NOT subtle about anything. If you want to look for clues, look for the people that are intentionally dropping them. Hell, I even INVITED people too send me garlic cloves, sunlight, and crucifixes.

I'd like to officially distance myself from being catrgorized as a "Dr. Who Fan" at this time. Oh I still really enjoy the program, I still make Dr. Who refreneces in my day-to day life, I still have an iPod with a ton of Dr. Who remixes on it. But if it means that you believe in this kind of jive, is synonymous with being labled as a Dr. Who fan, then I don;t really want anything to do with that kind of title.

It's an old mantra for people that pirate MP3's "Oh, Metallica already made their money, so it's morally okay to download their albums." I wonder if Steveo will hold a press conference soon and say "Oh, we at Apple have already made our money from the sales of iPods and iTunes. So we're going to sell our hardware at cost plus labor (Chinese sweatshops), un-DRM all the content, and tell THE MAN to go F himself!" If that ever happened, I for one will not only ditch Linux, and buy a Mac, but I'll actually buy stuff off the iTunes Store, instead of using it as a catolouge of "oh hey, I should go look for a torrent for that"

Oh come on, Jobs is just saying what people wants to hear. Think about it. 1) Jobs owns Apple. 2) Apple owns the iPod (80+% of the portable audio device market) 3) Apple owns iTunes / The iTunes Store. 4) iTunes purchaced audio, and even Creative Commons licenced podcasts have DRM embedded in them. 5) Jobs says "Hey man, we only sell our stuff with DRM becuase the RIAA makes us" and people act as if he's some kind of "power to the people freedom fighter", while he's making millions from DRM hardcoded iPods, and DRM encoded audio. If Jobs REALLY wanted to talk the talk, and walk the walk, he'd take the DRM out of his products, THEN make a fuss about other companies DRM.

ya, bloody pinkos, gawd they make me sick

Yeah, I'm with ya brother! let's lynch that awful 's0viet'! / I'm off to add itsathirteen.com to my list of registered domain names. // Just for people that don't already know, I already own itsazero.com, to remind people that the second charecter in my name is a zero. So me tell funny joke. /// Send garlic cloves. crucifixes and sunlight to vampire@itsazero.com

In Soviet Union, personal effects belongs to state. Since mupi left the NiteShire without warning, his property could be concitered to be abandoned, and would rightfully be absorbed by the mayor and rediistributed to all the people. Therefor, all his base are belong to you.

TFMF, concitering that I'm a recovering alcholic, I think that the chances of me being in kahoots with the bar owner are pretty slim. Besides, Nite's a Mormon, and I'm an Atheist, we're both way too moral to do anything dishonest like that. Anyways, back to S0V13T being the assinine rules lawyer. Since mupi SUPPOSEDLY left on his own, are we to believe that he ACTUALLY left town? Or did he just sneak back to his house, and hide in the basement waiting for the oppertunity to execute his next kill? I don't know about you guys, but I'm taking some of my men (the other local tourist guides, they're a bunch of tough hombres) over to mupi's house to make sure that he's gone. That, and to take back the metal detector that I lent him 6 years ago, that he never returned.

if anyone puts me on the map, make my icon a hammer and sickle, please :) Barring that, Hello Kitty will do fine ^_^

It's not that I don't want anyone to vote, kyran. It's a case of me being, what the kids call a "rules lawyer". From the first post the games set up / rules): "Two of the villagers are fiends (selected randomly). Each night, at midnight, they will eat one of the other villagers. Only i know who the fiends are. The next morning the villagers will wake up to find the mauled corpse of their fellow townsman. panicking, the villagers must now vote on who they think one of the fiends is so that they can be banished from NiteShire" Show me the dead body, and I'll put it as the focal point of the town tour. We have an injured man that is recovering, not a mauled corpse. The way the rules are clearly defined no dead body = no vote. The rules say nothing about 'failed atacks', or people getting hurt. This is an illegal vote, and the only reason I'm voting, is becuase I don't want to NOT vote and get a vote against me.

While clearing out the stockroom here in the Tourisim H.Q., I happened to find a book taped to the underside of a shelf. Excerpts from "I, Fiend" by Prof. Puffinstuff [...] The 'fiend' sub-species seem to follow three laws from my research, 1) A fiend must not kill another fiend. 2) A fiend must kill every 24 - 48 hours to stay alive. 3) A fiend must do everything in it's power to avoid detection. [...] Chapter 1: On the Origin of the Fiends Little is known about the root cause of "Fiendom". The first recorded case, was in 34 bc written in the ships log of a Roman Galleon, where every day, a crew member was killed, untill it was just the ships cook, and the captian left. After a valient one on one battle, the captian was able to subdue the mutated blood thirsty cook, and write about it. [...] It has been told in lore through out the ages that the Fiedom can be contracted in a variety of ways including: - Contaminated water. - Devil Worship. - Masturbation. - Mixing body fluids from another fiend. - Damning from the Gods. It has even been suggested that Fiendom is a mutated strain of e-coli 554 can be contracted by mearly touching a surface that afiend has touched in the past 24 - 72 hours. [hand written note in the margin reads "wash hands often", and is circled in red pen.] Chapter 2: Know Yourself, and know Your Fiend Spotting a fiend, is as they say, not so easy. One infected with Fiendom will not display any obvious symptoms while in the dormant 'human' state. It is only once a fiend transforms into their natural state, be it a werewolf, zombie, or other terrifying monster. It is speculated that the fiend is always in their natural terrifying state, but only APPERARS to be human through a mix of their unique brains generating a higher level of Alpha waves, specialized pheramones, hybred chamelion DNA, and other unidentified methods.

Nobody was killed, so nobody should vote. This whole attempted killing thing, I believe is a misdirection away from a legitimate investigation. I think that he just fell down a flight of stairs after watching "An American Werewolf in London" in a drunken stupor, got a little confused when he woke up, and is making up stories to save face. My vote is against mupi, for making up stories, and trying to misdirect us.

haha, it's funny that I got tour guide, as my first job ever was being the tour guide on a bus here in scenic niagara falls. With all these fiends invasing the niteshire, how will we re-coup our lost tourist dollars? Mr. Mayor, on behalf of the Niteshire tourist commission, I beg you to legalize prostitution and casino gambeling.

Whoop-de-effing-do. So she did some naked pictures a decade or so ago. So what? So she married some billionaire 1/2 dead buy and took his money when he died. big deal. So she may or may not have killed her kid a while back. o rly? Now the world has another orphan. y rly. So she was famous / noteworthy for being a slutty gold digger, that might have been a child killer. besides what I just named off up there, can someone please tell me why Anna nichole Smith dying from a drug overdose is a huge deal / news worthy? I mean, it's not as if she was Kurt Kobain, Jimi Hendrix, or Fat Elvis or anything. As far as I'm concerned, send the body to the glue factory.

I say that we push the start date back untill mid July. You know, just in case other people want to join. My voting strategy for the first round, is to vote for the biggest cry-baby whining for the game to start.

I have 127 PM's atm. It's funny, I tend to prune my PM's regurly, and the PM's that I have in my inbox are mostly from NiteShdw with important information that I want to keep. Stuff like IP addresses, usernames/passwords for various things on the server, porn, instructions for how to do things that I don't want to re-ask. I still have a couple left over from famous people such as BorisP, theaveng, and katrina. It's my sc##p book.

heres a link to the phpized project page. Everyone's free to contribute whatever they feel necessery. And yes, I'm pretty sure that I mucked up something in the game mechanics section, so please fo point out any inconsistancies / big fat errors.
