Well, the big news of the weekend was that the much maligned, embattled Stanford football team pulled out the 10-3 upset victory at UC Berkeley in the 101st Big Game to keep the Axe for the fourth consecutive year and spoil Cal's bowl hopes.
In other sports news: the women's basketball team beat #1 Purdue; men's water polo beat Cal as well; women's volleyball continued their PAC-10 dominance and clinched the conference championship by beating UCLA; men's soccer advanced to the next round of the NCAA playoffs; finally, men's basketball blew away SW Missouri State to head to Madison Square Garden for the NIT Semifinals. All in all, the Cardinal kicked some major butt this weekend.
Also this week, Lucasfilm released the trailer for the new Star Wars prequel which is due May 21, 1999. A QuickTime version was posted on their website and shortly massive network congestion ensued.
I am mirroring a few versions of the movie at different sizes and quality levels. There is an unofficial list of mirrors at:
