...what I did: install a ready-made upgrade from WeaKnees.com. All hacking will, of course, void your warranty. But what you get in return is a supercharged TiVo with three or more times the recording capacity. The larger the hard drive, the less you're forced to watch stuff on TiVo's schedule...
...responsibility is to do big stuff--not the next one-set, three-character play," says Gregory Boyd, artistic director of the Alley, which has commissioned, among other new works, a play from Keith Reddin about the Luddite rebellion in 19th century England. Regional theaters are one place where educational is not a dirty word.

Best Pre-Festival Disaster Scenario: The Hell-no-we-won't-go rumor. After Gulf War II, journalists speculated that big American stars and producers would boycott Cannes in solidarity with the U.S. government's cold-shouldering of France. This notion of Cannes as a family picnic, where the feudin' cousins stay home, ignores what the festival really is: a place where movies are seen and sold...
