Scifi.com TV Shows
While previewing some of the new shows and returning fare the networks are offering,I'm convinced the Scifi channel is pound for pound the best this year.
Not only is Stargate Atlantis great,but a new prequel of shorts for Battlestar Galattica AND a 2 hour movie called BATTLESTAR GALACTICA: RAZOR ,have me waiting.There is also the new Flash Gordon which is sort of a modern take off on the 30's serials much the same as Smallville is to the Superman comics.
OFF Sci Fi I LOVE Smallville and am interested in NBC's new take on the old Bionic woman series ONLY because Katee Sackhoff who plays Starbuck on Battlestar plays a "bad"Bionic woman on the new NBC show.She should be the main character I believe.

Burma: Thousands dead in massacre of the monks dumped in the jungle
Thousands of protesters are dead and the bodies of hundreds of executed monks have been dumped in the jungle, a former intelligence officer for Burma's ruling junta has revealed.
Reports from exiles along the frontier confirmed that hundreds of monks had simply "disappeared" as 20,000 troops swarmed around Rangoon yesterday to prevent further demonstrations by religious groups and civilians.
Word reaching dissidents hiding out on the border suggested that as well as executions, some 2,000 monks are being held in the notorious Insein Prison or in university rooms which have been turned into cells.
There were reports that many were savagely beaten at a sports ground on the outskirts of Rangoon, where they were heard crying for help.
Others who had failed to escape disguised as civilians were locked in their bloodstained temples.

Two pictures that show how the protest was crushed
A Japanese journalist lies fatally wounded on a wet Rangoon street. Demonstrators flee in terror from the junta’s gun-toting, baton-wielding security forces. A man is being trampled underfoot. A teargas cylinder flies through the air. Flip-flops, lost in the panic, and discarded water bottles litter the road.

Satellite Images Catch Human-Rights Violations in Burma
Backing up human-rights reports that the Burmese military is razing villages of ethnic minorities and herding people into areas under tighter military control, an analysis of satellite images shows chilling scenes of bare ground where villages once stood, new settlements near military camps, and swelling refugee camps just across the border, in Thailand. The new analysis was done by the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and human-rights groups.

Bloggers who risked all to reveal the junta’s brutal crackdown in Burma
nternet geeks share a common style, and Ko Latt and his four friends would not be out of place in cyber cafés across the world. They have the skinny arms and the long hair, the dark T-shirts and the jokey nicknames. But few such figures have ever taken the risks that they have in the past few weeks, or achieved so much in a noble and dangerous cause.
Since last month Ko Latt, 28, his friends Arca, Eye, Sun and Superman, and scores of others like them have been the third pillar of Burma’s Saffron Revolution. While the veteran democracy activists, and then the Buddhist monks, marched in their tens of thousands against the military regime, it is the country’s amateur bloggers and internet enthusiasts who have brought the images to the outside world.
Armed with small digital cameras, they have documented the spectacular growth of the demonstrations from crowds of a few hundred to as many as 100,000. On weblogs they have recorded in words and pictures the regime’s bloody crackdown, in a city where only a handful of foreign journalists work undercover. With downloaded software, they have dodged and weaved around the regime’s increasingly desperate attempts to thwart their work. Now the bloggers, too, have been crushed. Having failed to stop the cyber-dissidents broadcasting to the world, the authorities have simply switched off the internet.

Horror stories abound but facts remain elusive in Burma's military crackdown
BANGKOK, Thailand–One hundred shot dead outside a Burmese school. Activists burned alive at government crematoriums. A Buddhist monk floating face down in a river.
After last week's brutal crackdown by the military, horror stories are filling Burmese blogs and dissident sites. But the tight security of the repressive regime makes it impossible to verify how many people are dead, detained or missing.
Above figure is the brain of a young student who was beaten violently to death by soldiers of the junta found in the drain near No. (3) Tarmway high school.
