Yeah, but with the way they're going in that everybody knows/is related to everybody else I wouldn't be surprised. Plus, he's already done the creepy/eww thing with the spying on her while outside her window.

1J: Up. 1S: Back quite a bit, 30 degrees or so.

I was commenting more on a genetic link to . And if ---wait till Claire finds out.

For the past 2 days, if I leave MW for more than a few hours, I have to re-log in every time. I've cleared my cookies (both the mw.com and www.mw.com ones, which are all of them AFAIK) and it's not helped.

True, after thinking about it for a few secs my guess was he was her greatx10grandfather or something. But still---that whole little plotline IMHO should have just ended there, and Hiro goes on and does the obvious thing. But about the kid at Claire's school---I'm guessing it's more random chance, no relation. I mean, Heroes is obviously "everyone knows or is related to everyone else", but if he's got a link somehow---that's just stupid.

Never considered that, but it could be. My overall thoughts of the ep were that it was 30 mins of stuff stretched out to an hour. Especially Claire's stuff. Also--I kinda doubt "he" is dead. We have no idea what his power is. Maybe it's creating dead clone bodies to fool people...

I'm still going to hold off for a month or two. Or three. I want to make sure any bugs are out on 65nm chips. And I don't want fugly olive green. Waiting for white ones. I may very well have a 360 for sale in the upcoming months. Doubt I'll be able to swap by the time Mass Effect is out.

I'd not seen that clip before, so it was new to me. As opposed to the other "Lucas got this from that movie" stuff which has been seen a thousand other times.

"New simplified heatsink". Am I the only who's thinking it's still going to be too hot, and 3-6 months from now they're going to have to go back to the bigger, improved heatsink seen recently on non-Falcon chips? Sigh. Cooling something down, but then shrinking down its cooling system---pretty much puts you back where you were to start with. PS--any news on drives on the Halo edition? Ben-Q?

It's well-known that the M. Falcon vs TIE scene was taken from WW2 films of bombers, but this is new---but fits just as well.

My point was that CRT 16:9 HDTV's have insanely low horizontal resolution. As in you can see gaps between each columns of phosphors. It's that bad.

Just about every "hot young actress" in Hollywood has at some point been rumored to play Wonderwoman. Though IMHO none of the ones named would be a good choice.

I think they're completely clueless. Live only makes money for MS when it's being supported and used by other companies. Yeesh, MS even has ISP-specific directions for hooking up for many companies. Have you seen/tried this? http://www.xbox.com/en-US/support/connectt...ivitywizard.htm

If that were true, I would have bought one of the many CRT HDTV's at Best Buy a year or two ago.

Wait-- "With FFIV getting the full voice treatment, we can only assume the upcoming remakes of FFV and FFVI will follow" When were FF5 and 6 announced? I passed on the GBA versions of most, though did get 6 advance. Ah well, full 3D is well worth the purchase again.

Really good, big pic of the first SBD dropped by an F-22: (scroll down) http://www.edwards.af.mil/shared/media/pho...F-9999W-011.jpg It won't be long before we start seeing the following standard load: 8x GBU-39 2x AIM-120D 2x AIM-9X

I transformed my first (and only) 1/48 once, then took it totally apart to do some tweaking--namely sanding down lots of parts in the backpack joints, so that it transforms smoothly and stress-free. Also a few paint apps. And using CA to make reinforcing fillets. Seeing all the stress marks from just one careful transformation will freak you out. (Though on any non-white valk like my Milia, stress marks stand out 10x more)

I don't think Kaito Nakamura was pushed over the ledge as an attack--I think he flipped the bad guy over the ledge, and got pulled down along with. As for the girl--read the web comic. #51. http://www.nbc.com/Heroes/novels/downloads...s_novel_051.pdf The connection with her brother is unspecified, but the obvious guess is "if he's with her, it doesn't happen". Thus, why he's so desperate to always be right next to her. Makes me wonder if his power is like the Haitian's nullifying power, or if it only works with his sister. (They're supposed to be twins AFAIK)

They say KC-30: "Northrop Grumman's KC-30 Tanker, developed for the US Air Force KC-135 tanker replacement programme, has completed its first flight. Aircraft "D-1", a green Airbus A330-200, flew for nearly four hours and will be the first aircraft delivered to the USAF if the Northrop Grumman team is awarded the KC-X contract. Contract award is currently expected in December 2007 or early January 2008. The A330-200 has been reconfigured as a strategic transport aircraft for the military market with aerial refuelling equipment installed. After its flight tests, the tanker will be ready to be outfitted for the aerial refuelling role. Australia, the UK and United Arab Emirates have selected the A330 platform to serve as their next-generation tanker. Its direct competitor is the Boeing's KC-767. Flightglobal.com reported on 23 September that Northrop Grumman may switch to the A330-200 Freighter version, which is in development and has yet to fly." On my main aviation forum, someone said they built it so as to have an aircraft ready very soon if it is chosen--and if it's not, it can easily be converted for the RAF, RAAF, etc--and they'll all be interested to get an extra, cheap, surplus tanker. Note that last sentence---it's what I was referring to about it not being based on an A330-200F. I expect "real" KC-30's will be, if they ever come to be.

Hey look, it's the first KC-30. Personally, I would have waited until the USAF chooses between the 767 and A330 before starting to build them. Also, it doesn't look like I expect the KC-30 would---even ignoring the total lack of refuelling equipment (guess it's not a demonstrator), it doesn't have the revised nose gear/nose area the cargo-based A330's are supposed to get.

Surprised I haven't seen anyone comment on this anywhere. It was freaky in Superman Returns, it's freaky here. Using your powers to hover outside a girl's window isn't romantic, it's stalking. At least he didn't use x-ray vision or super-hearing.

Runabout was a black 98+ Camaro SS. Don't actually remember what Runamuch was at all. The same?

I always thought he did a remarkable job with F-22 seekers, the best of his "updated" interpretations. (Though Runamuck and Runabout were good too)

Graham was in Macau for a while, so he was too busy to do much. I think he's only just now getting around to writing it. Also, he wants to get more comfortable with transforming it before he does a video.

The ep's title is "Four Months Later". Parkman got divorced somewhere in there I'd bet. Ack--haven't checked Yamagato's site in a while---they've got a documentary series about Kensei. http://yamagatofellowship.org (check the videos section)
