(Listen for it at the 1:24 mark.)

Lost composer Michael Giacchino decided to put a cute Easter egg (The Man from Tallahassee) into an episode of Lost.

In that episode, Locke breaks into a submarine and walks around it before blowing it up. The musical cues being played at the time are the Locke theme and U-boat theme from Medal of Honor, which Giacchino worked on also.

It was a nice little tip of the hat to Giacchino fans that notice those sorts of things. I noticed the MOH theme back when this episode aired. I’m glad other people noticed it too and posted it in the link above.

Below is the U-boat theme I’m talking about.

Listen for the theme at the 1:02 mark.

Here’s another version from MOH Frontline.

That clever Michael Giacchino.

(Side Note: Film Composers sometimes put little hidden themes from their earlier works into their current projects.)

Giacchino's work on the Lost S4 finale has pretty much cemented him as a legend in my book.

Thanks for the tidbit, Semaj - I'll have to listen out for it in this ep once I finally get around to buying the S3 DVDs!

No problem

I got a kick out of his newer themes from S4, like the boat/civilian theme.

I just wished more shows would take on his style.

Shannon Fill: Where is she now? (Ensign Sito Jaxa)

Shannon Fill:   Where is she now? SF has been reviewing TNG seasons o ver at his blog. And, the episode Lower Decks came up. I recently watched Lower Decks on Net-flicks and found myself amazed with the performance from the young and lovely Shannon Fill , who played the character Ensign Sito Jaxa. Jaxa showed up in two episodes of TNG, actually they were two important episodes.   There was a nice arc to her character too.   Her character was killed off in Lower Decks , but there were plans to bring her back for an episode of DS9. From Memory Alpha , ((One story considered by the writing staff concerned the return of  Sito Jaxa  from  TNG : " Lower Decks ". The pitch had Sito being imprisoned under inhumane conditions and suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.  Robert Hewitt Wolfe  developed the story for some time. Feeling that there was insufficient explanation of Sito's condition, he had Sito killing her cellmate, whom she'd become cl...

Uh, this is objectionable attire? http://abcnews.go.com/US/Travel/story?id=3571435&page=1 ((Kyla Ebbert, a blond, shapely 23-year-old San Diego coed who also works shifts at a Hooters restaurant, boarded the flight to Tucson , Ariz. , on a one-day round-trip visit to an Arizona doctor's appointment. She had settled into her seat when a flight attendant confronted her about what was later described by the airline as "revealing attire.")) ((Ebbert said she told the flight attendant she needed to remain on that flight so could make her doctor's appointment and that because she was on a day trip, she had not packed any luggage from which she could take clothes to change.)) If they got upset over this, they should come to U of L and check out the girls and what they’re barely wearing here. Come one people, she’d be sitting most of the time. Are we in forth grade and a hot woman can’t show a little skin? Now I can see them having a problem with her comin...

a U of L cheerleader gets into a little bit of trouble...

The Internet can be a dangerous place, and things that you did with that camera can come back to ruin your life. A very attractive University of Louisville cheerleader by the name of Becca Manns took some pictures of herself naked and also having sex with a dude. Either her memory stick or camera was stolen, and the theft uploaded the graphic photos onto the World Wide Web. That was when the shit hit the fan (Louisville Fan). She ended up having to leave the program and probably school. (I am currently enrolled in UofL as well, but you won't find any photos of me.) I sort of feel sorry for her because she did one crazy thing, and now it has ruined her life. However, I have to say this to her: You were given a chance to do something many people would never get a chance to do, go to an University. You have to learn fairly quickly that every action good or bad has consequences. Exposing yourself probably wasn't good for your career or your life. (James steps off his ...
