'Odd Thomas' with Anton Yelchin Delayed Indefinitely in Legal Dispute

If you look around online, you won't have to search too long before finding a working unofficial trailer for Odd Thomas, the adaptation of the Dean Koontz novel about a short-order cook named Odd Thomas (Anton Yelchin) who can commune with the dead, a secret only his girlfriend (Addison Timlin) and the local police chief (Willem Dafoe) know. Thomas can also spot malevolent forces called bodachs, who feed on pain and portent imminent death. When Odd sees them in spades surrounding a stranger, he finds himself in a race against time to avert a catastrophe. But don't count on seeing this flick anytime soon.

THR has word on a legal dispute from Two Out of Ten Productions (TOOT) and Fusion Films against Outsource Media Group Fund, ABS Investment Group, individuals Craig Chang and Mark Bishop, and Outsource Media Group. The lawsuit focuses on $25 million which should have been spent on prints and advertising to support a release of Odd Thomas in the U.S. and another $10 million to partially refinance certain loans. However, deadlines for that money to surface have passed, and producers are not happy.

This is simply bad news for the fans, because as long as this legal dispute is in play, the film definitely won't see release. We're not even sure if the film is complete yet, but it was trying on the Cannes Sales Market, so it at least has to be close to completion. If you check out the working trailer, the film doesn't look like a knockout, but with Yelchin in the lead, an interesting story and a supporting cast that includes Willem Dafoe and Patton Oswalt, we were at least provoked to see how the film from director Stephen Sommers (G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra, The Mummy) turned out. Hopefully this will be resolved soon.

Roanoke College Insider Steps Into In-House Role

July marks an important step forward for Roanoke College. The Virginia liberal arts college welcomes its first general counsel, G. Michael Pace Jr.?only a month before his daughter will join Roanoke as an incoming freshman.

That?s a coincidence, according to Roanoke President Michael Maxey. The school began to consider hiring a GC long before Pace?s daughter was college-aged. ?We started to look at this about six years ago and polled a number of other institutions about their approaches to in-house and outside counsel, and concluded that it was a good idea [to hire a general counsel] as soon as we could get to it,? he said.

In 2004, Roanoke announced a strategic plan to be ?one of the top 100 liberal arts colleges? in the U.S. by 2017 and began a period of expansion, focusing on everything from the school?s endowment to its physical plant. In April, the college kicked off a $200 million fundraising campaign, the largest in its history. That money will fund a new campus center, scholarships, and academic programs.

Maxey said that growth naturally translates to more legal needs for the institution: ?The work of the college has grown more complex as the college has grown and changed.? He cited a growing staff and faculty, along with recent real estate acquisitions as reasons to have an attorney close at hand. ?It seems like this a natural step in the maturity of the college,? he said.

Pace says that growth is a big part of what attracted him to the job: ?Frankly, Roanoke College is on a rocket. To be part of that is very exciting to me.?

The new GC has been a witness to the college?s evolution. He is a longtime resident of Salem, VA, where the college is located, and an adjunct professor in the school?s public affairs department. From 1999 to 2012, he was the managing partner of Roanoke-based firm Gentry Locke Rakes & Moore, which provides outside counsel to the college.

?[Pace] has really served our community in a fine and distinguished way,? Maxey said.

Pace is also the former president of the Virginia Bar Association, and the founder and president of the Center for Teaching the Rule of Law, which located its offices on the Roanoke College campus in 2012?and has been lauded by the American Bar Association Commission on Civic Education as a ?best practices? program for bar associations in the United States. He received a B.A. in history from Hampden-Sydney College and a J.D. from Washington & Lee University School of Law, where he also serves as an adjunct professor.

Although Pace is eager to transition from private practice to in-house work, he expects it to be an adjustment. ?The in-house general counsel to a college is different form providing legal services as lawyer with a firm,? he said. ?My biggest challenge is getting to go more in-depth in the how the college and its various departments work, and to educate myself so I can be helpful on a daily basis for the college and its legal needs.?

A secondary challenge might be avoiding his daughter, whom he has promised to see on campus only when she wishes. ?She?s a little bit scared about it,? he joked.

New In CyanogenMod: Google Voice SMS Messages Can Now Be Sent Through The Stock Messaging App

One issue that has plagued many Google Voice users since the dawn of time (or at least since GV became a thing) is how not good the app itself is. Those who use GV as their primary phone number are stuck using the app for things like sending/receiving SMS messages, and up until now, there was absolutely no alternative.

Today, however, Koush Dutta has announced Google Voice SMS integration in CM10.1 with not only the stock messaging app, but also any third party application you may use (GoSMS, Handcent, etc.). This is a pretty big deal to anyone who uses both Google Voice and CM, but may also be incentive for GV users who are tired of the terrible app to give the latest CM10.1 builds a shot.

The process seems to be pretty straightforward ? here are Dutta's instructions on how to get it working, directly from his Google+ page:

This comes with no support, and is nowhere near complete.

0) Google Voice must be installed with notifications enabled (for now).
1) Install a recent +CyanogenMod nightly. July 1st or later. You need the SMS middleware patches I put in for PushSMS. (see Gerrit)
2) Push this apk to /system/app: http://download.clockworkmod.com/test/babel-signed.apk adb install will not work. The app requires system/signature permissions.
4) Start Babel, choose your Google Voice account. Authorize it.
6) Click the "Accessibility service" button, and it will direct you to settings. Enable "Babel".
No, Babel is not the final name.

How it works:

The app will sync your existing Google Voice messages into your messaging store. New Google SMS will be received as if it were a normal SMS.

When you send a message out from your messaging app, it goes out via Google Voice.

And that's basically it. Dutta notes that this implementation is still in the early stages of development, so you may run into some snags here or there. For Voice users, however, the fact that it's being done at all is impressive.
