Mail and Bandwidth Problems/Virus Warning
I'll start this off with an important notice or three. The recent promo pics and awards coverage were a major cause for bandwidth concern for us. Vartanhopics.com isn't down yet, but we came really close and had to take a couple of sections offline for a while. So if you experience any outtages, we're terribly sorry for the inconvenience!
Secondly, because of the new viruses going around and other technical difficulties, we have e-mail issues. We cannot guarantee that we will receive any mail, and more importantly, a lot of mail we sent you in the last couple of days bounced back to us. We've tried our best to get back to everybody, but it's really tricky right now (not to mention annoying for all involved). If you didn't get a reply yet, know that the news or suggestions you sent us were appreciated!
We hope to rectify this situation soon, but until then, please bear with us. Any mail that is sent to our main account, thesafehouse@vartanho.com, should still reach us fine. :)
On a similar note, the viruses seem to have besieged Yahoo groups as well, so if you're part of the VHoChat, please read this important announcement from Yahoo. And be sure to use very clear subject headers when you send e-mail! Thanks!
Recap: Ep 13 Spoiler Pics/Golden Globes
If you missed those yesterday, we still have them up on our two mirror servers: one, two. You can also read the ep description. We have more pic material in the pipeline, but for now, check out this link for pics from the InStyle party after the Globes, courtesy of TwinnerA! Thanks!
ABC Schedule Change
Thanks to Jenn, Vartan Ho #562, for the alert that ABC took ep 14 off the schedule for February 22nd. A new air date has yet to be announced. They'll air "Super Millionaire" instead, which means that there's only one episode of "Alias" in February sweeps (ep 13 on Feb. 15th).
Elektra/DD2 info
Souris has added some scoop about the "Elektra" and "Daredevil II" franchise films to our spoiler page. According to "Ask Stacy," both of these films are anything but a lock. We'll know more when Jennifer wraps "Alias" this spring.
Fashionable Michael
Looks like Michael is a real trendsetter these days by wearing John Varvatos. This press release puts him in the best company by stating that "Varvatos is the favored designer of top Hollywood talent including: Brad Pitt, Brendan Fraser, David Schwimmer, Eric McCormack, Ethan Hawke, Hugh Jackman, Keanu Reeves, Luke Wilson, Michael Vartan, Paul Walker, Pete Yorn, Sean William Scott, Taye Diggs and Tom Cruise." In other words, a who-is-who of hot guys. Yowza! The fashion is definitely not the only thing they have in common...
With that nice mental image to ponder, I'll leave you to your well-deserved Hump Day! :)

Update: Ep 13 promo pics are now up!
Lugia here. You can now check out 18 new spoiler pics for episode 13. We've also added the ep description. If you have trouble viewing any of these links or the pic page itself, please try out this solution or get them from one of our two mirror sites (one, two). Or, you know, you might not care at all because they're almost exclusively of guest stars or LuEvil. Reminds me of those annoying Slayers-in-Training on Buffy's last season that sucked away screen time from the people we really cared about.
More Golden Globes fun
Sarah, Vartan Ho #3006, made some nice screencaps of
Jennifer (and yes, J.J.) on Sunday night's Golden Globes broadcast. Though Michael's absence was the red carpet's loss, you can read his cute comment about Jennifer's fashion choice here.
Alias spoilers
Bitterpill at TWoP posted some new spoilers for episode 15.
Alias info for Canadian and Border Hos
Hee--Border Hos. There's something amusing (probably only to me) about that. Anyway, Ella wrote to give us some info about some Star-TV programming on Alias and Victor Garber. You can check out the details and the schedule in our Overseas Ops section.
Art and advertising
Two separate things, one alliterative update item. First, we have the art: Zoe, Vartan Ho #2600, drew this cool sketch of our raison d'etre, Michael Vartan. As for the advertising, Mona scanned this ad for the upcoming Alias video game. Thanks, ladies!
That's all the news for today. We've added some new questions and answers to our FAQ, so if you click here, you'll get the three newest entries. Have a great day!

Golden Globes Coverage
Jen sadly didn't win. She lost to Frances Conroy of "Six Feet Under." The full list of winners is here. That didn't stop her from looking very, very pretty (interesting dress indeed!). We've compiled some early red carpet photos, and you can also take a look at caps from the actual show! Congrats to everybody who did win! :)
MV Pics, MV Pics!
Kate did some really cool caps of MV's appearance in "To Wong Foo," which you can check out here. Isn't he like the cutest thing with that baseball cap? I love that look!
Caption This!
If all these pics inspired you to do some captions, take a moment to participate in our VSR caption contest (we're looking for really funny one-liners!). The winners will be announced in just a few days, so this is your last chance. You can send your suggestions to captionthis@vartanho.com. Thanks!
Now back to studying Casual!Michael! Have a great post-GG Monday!
