    Buffistas.org and istrata.com are unreachable right now. The number I have for support says to send an email, so I have no idea what effect that could possibly have, but rest assured that I'm fretting at least.

    And, really, I should have set up buffistas.info by now. I will get back on that.

    eta: I have set up a wordpress blog for now, and have paged an Istrata engineer.

    I'm trying to access the site from my phone and it keeps timing out when I try to load.

    hmm
    Is the b.org down? I see nothing on the .info page. Maybe it's just me.

    (eta: .info now updated...looks like the hosting company itself is down.)

    (eata: Yay, we're back!)

    Online course on the Whedonverses
    I wanted to let this community know that I will be teaching an online course at the Massachusetts College of Art on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. (Please pardon the self-promotion and any cross-posting, but I thought it was an appropriate announcement for this community.) I’d like to encourage interested members to sign up for some serious fun.

    My background: I’ve taught several seminars on the Buffyverse at the Massachusetts College of Art and Emerson College over the past three years. I’ve published two articles on the series at Slayage (which you can find at http://slayageonline.com/ in issues 19 and 22.) I’ve presented articles at a several conferences, including the latest biannual one on the Whedonverses, Charming and Crafty at Harvard University, and for the Popular Culture and American Culture Associations.

    What you can expect: The course will give students the rare opportunity study the evolution of a single, long-running series in its entirety. This course will offer you the depth of understanding granted by courses that study the work of a single director. Students will practice a variety of critical approaches on a single subject: genre and auteur theory, cultural studies, and close reading of individual episodes. The goal will be a more complete understanding of the series and its meanings. (Translation: it’s not fanboy, but I do respect the artistry and politics of the series.)

    The price of admission: It’s $710. The course materials would be buying a few books, and either renting or purchasing seasons of the series. The start date would be January 29th and it would end on May 7th. You’d get an enriching experience and 3 academic credits.

    You can see how to register for “Truths My TV Told Me: Deconstructing Buffy” (CSB 315X-C1) here: http://www.massart.edu/at_massart/academic_prgms/continuing/info/registration/how/

    If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me at my Emerson account, which is David_Kociemba “at” emerson “dot” edu.

    What is the use of me being up so early if b.org has falled down and go boom?

    The status page doesn't say anything but I assume that is because people are sleeping still.

    Access problems?
    Anybody else having problems with B.org?

    I can get an opening screen just fine -- which will even show me that there are a number of new posts in my subscribed topics. But if I click on any of them, I can't open them. I've tried in several different browsers now, on two machines.

    About to be off to work, so perhaps if the problem is somehow with my Comcast connection, I'll have another shot at it....
