NEW UPDATE: Comments styles have been fixed. Still working on the missing categories issue.
It happens to the best of us, but my blog has been hacked. I’ve cleaned up most of the issues, but the big remaining one is the lack of “Next Page” links at the bottom of each page. This makes navigating the archives problematic right now, but I do hope to have it fixed shortly once I restore some files from backups. I appreciate your patience. Thanks!

Try saying that three times in a row while rubbing your tummy.
Following a link off of IO9, I checked out photos from the recent shoot of Stargate:Atlantis’ “Whispers” episode on Joseph Mallozzi’s blog.
Right then a trifecta whammie of SF goodness exploded.
(1) Former BLOOD TIES actress Christina Cox looks to be in the upcoming “Whispers” episode (see photo left — Cox is the one on the right). She’s not only an actress, but a stuntwoman and I profiled her in the BLOOD TIES Vicki Nelson role as a Danger Gal a while back. According to IMDB, Cox “competed in gymnastics, track and field and tae kwan do…[S]he is proficient in boxing, Muay Thai kickboxing and has extensive training in stage combat, period weaponry and firearms.” I suppose it’s unlikely, but a recurring role for her on Atlantis would be fantastic.
(2) Sometime today Mallozzi will be hosting Science Fiction writer Lois McMaster Bujold to discuss CORDELIA’S HONOR, one of my all-time favorite Science Fiction Romances.
(3) Confirmation of a Keller-McKay pairing. I adore McKay, but I feel gipped since the writers hinted at a Keller-Ronon ‘ship. Supposedly, Ronon gets his own ‘ship this season, too, so I’ll just have to wait and see.
