SETI@Home is shutting down -- not because it's out of money or someone stomped on it, but because it's been so successful they've got a massive backlog of data to go through, and are shifting focus to analyzing the data they have instead of getting more data from contributors. They describe it as a "hiatus", giving every indication they plan to start parceling out data to users again just as soon as they get their analysis on their current data done.

Why accents are behind the booming business of the human voice
Quote:"I think authenticity is key," said Jonathan Love, a 45-year-old voice actor based in Calgary who's known for his role as Obi-Wan Kenobi in 2002's Star Wars: The Clone Wars video game.
If that game were to be made today, Love said it's likely he wouldn't be cast.
"I think gone are the days that I would be cast to do a Ewan McGregor accent," said Love.
