Our official site sponsor, Sideshow/Weta Collectibles, is holding their first annual Sideshow Collectibles Film Festival competition from now until the end of Setember.

(Yes, that means its a more valuable piece than the regular numbered editions that you see on eBay for $2000!) The basics of the contest: Take their collectibles, make a short 2-3 minute film, and submit it. [Click Here]

Recently, we began the implementation of a portal using Oracle, and we had to name the server. So, in honor of his journey to Mount Doom, and for saving Middle Earth, the server has been named “Frodo.” “frodo.utm.edu” will soon be a permanent fixture to our online presence. Anyway, just thought I’d pass that along. Oh, and LOTR rules!
