I predict that within the coming week, there will be an announcement that Britney “Ya’ll” Spears and Kevin “been a great dad” Federline will be reconciling.

C’mon Stelios, make a brat-free airline!

AirTran is defending itself today for removing a screaming toddler and her family from a flight bound for Boston.

“The flight was already delayed 15 minutes and in fairness to the other 112 passengers on the plane, the crew made an operational decision to remove the family,” AirTran spokeswoman Judy Graham-Weaver said, ” [The toddler, a three year old named Elly] was climbing under the seat and hitting the parents and wouldn’t get in her seat.”

The family was compensated to the tune of “$595.80, the cost of the three tickets,” and “flew home the next day.

They also were offered three roundtrip tickets anywhere the airline flies,” but the father said they’d never fly AirTran again.

This, of course, means we are suddenly more interested in flying AirTran for the no psychotic toddler policy.

There are other people on the plane, and if you can’t control your kid you need to be removed rather than ruin/delay the flight for everyone else.

The panic is over, ReGenesis is alive!

After a few emails back and forth with the music composer, and a very nice email from one of the show’s producers, I can confirm that there will, indeed be a new season of ReGensesis.

I was most honored to recieve the emails, as both have been very forthcoming in relieving my anxiety. It’s nice to see people who care about there fanbase.

I must also recommend that you guys find and enjoy some masterful music by Tom Third, who has a site over at LastFM.
Some of his work has been remastered over at ReGenesis Remixed.

I can only describe it as a bit of Filia Brazilia mixed with some Massive Attack (my all-time fave artist), a splash of Faithless, and a bit of funk thrown in for good measure.

What about ReGenesis you ask?

It has brilliant writing, great stories, and an amazing cast lead by the incredible Peter Outerbridge.

The future is here. Bioterrorism. Designer babies. Frankenfoods. Suddenly Humanity possesses the ability to play god. But is it progress—or madness? Will cutting-edge science be our salvation? Or our demise?

ReGenesis is a new, 13-part one-hour, dramatic series about NorBAC, an organization formed to investigate questionable advances in biotechnology.

The Pandora’s box of biotech is wide open. It’s a modern gold rush, where billions will be made and geo-power will be staked. And everyone’s involved: governments, multinational drug companies, rogue states, and terrorist. But ideas can’t be put back in—once they’re out, they’re out.

One of the main reasons I started medical school was because I wanted to work in this field, biotechnology, bioweaponry and nanotechnology.
I had a particular interest in Ebola - and still do :)
I quickly changed my mind once I became pregnant with my daughter, as I did not want to take any chances - I wanted to see her grow up.

I can only describe my love for this show as “More abundant than my love of House (or House MD)”.

I am so very excited!

now that’s what I call a message…

One of my fave shows of all time, ReGenesis - is no-where to be found.

Their site (regenesistv.com) is no longer alive, which has caused me to panic and worry that there will not be a Season 3.

This show has brought me such beautiful people like Peter Outerbridge and the delicious Dmitry Chepovetsky.

You can’t go away.

YOU

JUST

CAN’T!

WAIT!

I see the sites have loaded now.

Panic somewhat diminished.
