Birthdays (May 6th) Kavan J Smith
A very happy birthday to Kavan J Smith for Sunday 6th May.
Kavan has guest starred and had recurring roles on numerous scifi genre shows and tv/dvd movies, he always delivers a fun performance and right now is one of the great characters on Eureka. He also comes across as both a guy you would be very happy to drink with but also to keep away from your sister or even gf/missus, he’s too good looking by half.
Stargate SG1/Stargate Atlantis: Major Evan Lorne

The 4400: Jed Garrity
Also on the 6th Carlos Lauchu who played Anubis in the Stargate theatrical movie celebrates his birthday.
Stargate SG-1 Series 3: Part 1 – Big Finish
“A shooting in the heart of Stargate Command is only the beginning for Daniel Jackson and Vala Mal Doran. Suddenly it’s friend against friend, none of their allies can be relied upon and they’re the universe’s only hope to foil the latest scheme concocted by the last System Lord, Ba’al.
Will Daniel, Vala and a few of Vala’s less than savoury friends be enough to stop a conspiracy that reaches deep into the heart of Stargate Command and threatens to destroy everything they’ve spent years building?”
What more could you ask for than Michael Shanks, Claudia Black and Cliff Simon performing the only Stargate we are going to get for a while. There is a trailer on the site so have a listen and imagine a world where the TV franchise is alive and well.

Brad Wright
Kneel before Brad Wright the maestro behind the Stargate TV franchise.
Brad celebrates his birthday today (May 2nd). He co-created Stargate SG1 (with Jonathan Glassner) and then went onto to co-create Atlantis and Universe both with Rob C Cooper. He is Canadian which we don’t hold against him (joking:) ) and his early work includes The Outer Limits and Poltergeist The Legacy. He produces, writes and on two occasions acted in front of the camera.
RIP Joel Goldsmith
Condolences and respect to the friends and family of Joel Goldsmith the creator of the vast majority of the music used in the Stargate franchise who passed away yesterday (29th April) at the far too early age of 54. He was the son of the respected composer Jerry Goldsmith (Trek Composer) and his vision of Stargate has helped make the show what it is today.

A Tok’ra Base?
Could this be a long abandoned Tok’ra base discovered by the Tau’ri in the land of Scot?

Leo Awards: 2012 Hosts
Amanda Tapping and Robin Dunne will host this years Leo Awards, Gary Jones will host the Celebration event. I don’t think it’s possible to pick three more appropriate hosts for these British Columbia film and television industry awards.
