Spotlight on . . . #4
One of the five core projects of the OTW is to support the noncommercial sharing of fanworks within fan communities. The official OTW website says:

The OTW believes that fanworks are creative and transformative, core fair uses, and will therefore be proactive in protecting and defending fanworks from commercial exploitation and legal challenge. This help will not be limited to those fans or projects directly connected with OTW.

I'm not a lawyer, nor do I understand much about law -- in twenty-first century America, it seems a tool of the powerful and the rich. When I was younger, I saw the law as a way to facilitate social change, but not so much anymore.

However, even cynical me acknowledges a need for legal resources at times, and a special kind of legal resource for online services. The existence of the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), a "civil liberties group defending your rights in the digital world," and the work it's doing is one indication of the need for legal analysis and protection.

Kei
So, I was feeling all angsty after the end of Kei... when I came across this bit of info.

"After the end of the second season, a special episode was announced for a DVD-only release, confirmed to be a bundle release with volume 14 of the manga on January 16, 2009."

Now, this was on Wikipedia so I'm taking it with a grain of salt, but has anyone heard anything about it?

So yeah, I just fail reading. Thanks to all who helped! : )

Via Mind Hacks, a Scientific American article on new research and discoveries about migraine. (Which is good, as that stupid headache is back and currently lurking behind my left ear :P) I'm especially interested in this bit:
This finding raises the possibility that cortical spreading depression is fundamental to migraine but that only in some instances does it give rise to visual symptoms recognized as aura. Instead the process might generate less obvious symptoms, such as fatigue or difficulty concentrating.
because YES, YES, THAT. And also, a bit later,
Through its connection with the brain stem, the limbic cortex affects the functioning of the rest of the cortex—a fact that might explain how emotional and psychological stress could catalyze mi­­graines, why mood fluctuates during migraine, and why there is an association between mi­­graine and depression and anxiety disorders, both of which occur more commonly in mi­­graine sufferers than in others.
because I can't get it across to people that I am not that much in control of my mood during a migraine. I can't just "not be that way" as someone told me once when I warned her I'd probably end up bitchy.
