So what happens if you give three of computer gaming's elite designers the task of making a game based on an utterly abstract and unmarketable personality? Chris Hocking, Peter Molyneux and Will Wright each get a crack at the lucrative Emily Dickinson franchise. All their ideas are interesting, but I admit, Will's is just...frightening.
A Fulton County Superior Court judge and a court reporter were killed and two deputies were wounded Friday when a defendant grabbed a gun from a deputy sheriff and opened fire, officials said.

Live reenactment of a D&D session. MPG file.
And a remix of the same clip to Bon Jovi's "Blaze of Glory." WMV file. Grrr. Still.
Edit: Another remix, this time to Slayer, this time in Flash. At this rate there should be a White Zombie remix in Quicktime any minute now.

A U.S. district court judge in Los Angeles dismissed several key claims by comic book publisher Marvel Enterprises, Inc in the company’s trademark and copyright infringement case against online computer game publisher NCsoft® Corporation and game developer Cryptic Studios™. Marvel sued NCsoft and Cryptic Studios in November of last year, claiming that the City of Heroes® online computer game allows players to imitate comic book characters owned by Marvel.
In a March 9 order, U.S. District Court Judge R. Gary Klausner agreed with NCsoft that some of Marvel’s allegations and exhibits should be stricken as “false and sham” because certain allegedly infringing works depicted in Marvel’s pleadings were created not by users, but by Marvel itself.

Take the case of Rep. Ellen Tauscher, D-California, who at a hearing on Capitol Hill last week spoke about a 1962 nuclear test in the Nevada desert. The test was code named "Project Sedan."
Tauscher's remarks were little noticed, until they were transcribed -- incorrectly -- in an unofficial transcript of the hearing. One letter was changed. The "Sedan" nuclear test became the "Sudan" nuclear test.
And the government of Sudan took notice....
Edit: We'll miss you, Doug. You're one hell of a sawed-off grizzled QB. (And yeah, I'd keep him around, honestly.)
