I’m all for recycling and I do know that we are changing our planet, and not in a good way. I quite understand the need for us to clean up our messes we’ve created on our only home we know. I try to do my part and it does make me feel like I’m part of the solution and not the problem. So, when in see things like this it really make me think of not only the environment but of my favorite past-time and it makes me smile. Great job Faith Pearson.

Lucasfilm Ltd. and Twentieth Century Fox officially announced that all six live-action Star Wars films will arrive on the Blu-Ray format in Fall 2011 as a commemorative box set.
The news, part of this week’s Celebration V festivities, promises “the highest possible picture and audio presentation, along with extensive special features – including documentaries, vintage behind-the-scenes moments, interviews, retrospectives and never-before-seen footage from the Lucasfilm archives.”
“Blu-ray is the absolute best way to experience Star Wars at home – in pristine high definition,” said George Lucas of the release, “The films have never looked or sounded better.”
At this time it is unclear what versions of each film will appear in the set. Past Star Wars home video releases have focused on the updated special editions, though fan demand led to a later, unrestored release of the original theatrical version on the DVD format.

The Bionic Woman’s Lindsay Wagner is returning to television in a new recurring role on Syfy’s WAREHOUSE 13 as in-house warehouse doctor Vanessa Calder. While she doesn’t appear to have any bionic parts this time around, Wagner’s new character still manages to turn the head of warehouse keeper Artie Nielsen (played by Saul Rubinek).
“Dr. Calder is being based around what’s happening today and what is generally referred to as the Energy Psychology or the Energy Medicine field,” said Wagner during a conference call with journalists. “It’s working with the energy system directly to heal the physical instead of focusing so much on trying to fix the physical only.”
Dr. Calder is introduced on Tuesday’s episode, “For The Team,” and comes to the warehouse to deal with Artie’s yearly appendix regrowth. Meanwhile, Myka (Joanne Kelly) and Claudia (Allison Scagliotti) head out to investigate mysterious deaths on a wrestling team and end up getting help from H.G. Wells (Jaime Murray).
While the busy Wagner, who balances acting with doing workshops and retreats around the world called Quiet the Mind and Open the Heart, had never seen WAREHOUSE 13, she hit the web and caught up on the series.
“I found it to be just a really fun concept,” she said. “Very creative. And the visuals, the way it’s shot and the chemistry of the actors just really impressed me. It’s really fun. And in its own way, very current and very today. … It felt a lot to me like The Bionic Woman in that, which is what attracted me to want to take the part and do a little cameo, which of course now is kind of turning into somewhat of a recurring Warehouse doctor.
