In the News (Thu 16 Feb 12)

  
  SFX Magazine - Summer 2001
SFX: Sometimes it seemed that Tuvok and Chakotay were the two sides of Janeway's conscience.
SFX: Were there any times when you thought - when you had scenes with those guys - when you thought that they had really valid points, and you'd want to go back and rewrite the scripts?

SFX is a British magazine devoted to science fiction and fantasy subjects, especially media-related topics, but not containing fiction.
Although SFX is the common abbreviation for special effects, the SFX website FAQ suggests that the magazine is not named after this ("It certainly doesn't mean we're a special FX magazine"): the SF stands for "science fiction", but the X may stand for anything.
SFX had a tendency to place the cover picture over the bottom of the F in SFX thereby making the logo look like it may read SEX, although according to the magazine's FAQ: "Believe it or not, it's not deliberate - and never was.

  SFX magazine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
SFX is a British science fiction magazine, published every four weeks.
Note, however, the magazine is a collaboration of many different reviewers and journalists and therefore cannot be said to have a "view" of its own.
The magazine has a rotating staff policy, which means that after a few issues, people are moved horizontally in order to keep the magazine fresh.

 SFX to purchase concert promoters   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
The move will make SFX the biggest player in a $1 billion-a-year segment of the U.S. entertainment industry that has yet to see the type of consolidation that the radio and television station business has undergone during the past few years.
Robert Sillerman, chairman of SFX, is known for boosting margins -- and causing his company's stock price to soar -- as he built up a 71-station radio network that Dallas-based investment company Hicks, Muse, Tate and Furst agreed to buy in August for $2.1 billion in cash and assumed debt.
SFX is looking for other concert promoters to buy in a bid to develop into a full-service event promoter "of national scope," said Timothy J. Klahs, director of investor relations for SFX.

 SFX magazine   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
It was launched in 1995 by Dave Golder and Matt Bielby, as an alternative to the increasingly unfashionable likes of Dreamwatch and TV Zone, having, like other magazines in the Future Publishing stable, a glossy cover, extensive features and interviews, and a witty, self-referential writing style.
SFX and Total Film have subsequently gone on to become market and industry leaders, and are two of the most well-recognised titles in the magazine industry.
SFX managed to beat its critics with a smart and wide ranging team, high production value and a stance of independance, frequently denouncing many things before it was popular to do so.

SFX is a magazine dedicated to science fiction and fantasy in general.

 Open Linking in the Scholarly Information Environment Using the OpenURL Framework
The fundamental notion introduced in the SFX research is that of disconnecting the provision of linking services for a work from the description of the work, as presented to users in electronic information resources (Figure 1 and Figure 2).
It is a general rendering of the SFX-URL that was introduced in the SFX research (Van de Sompel and Hochstenbach 1999c).
The approach is currently being explored in depth in a prototype implementation that involves CrossRef, the International DOI Foundation, CNRI, the Digital Library Federation, Ex Libris, the Los Alamos National Laboratory, OhioLink and the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign.

The latest issue of SFX magazine (latest issue as in arrived this morning through subscription) over here in the UK has a (very) small bit in it's news section about the possible return of Farscape.
If you don't know SFX magazine is very pro-Farscape and is usually excellent for Farscape related news.
I just thought it was worth letting people on here know, as I have read SFX for several years (since issue 2) and have found in the past that they have usually been pretty good for things like this.

The English SFX on pages 5-6 seem to be a big bigger than needed and covers too much extra artwork IMHO.
While I do like SFX translated, a smaller translation would be nicer and do the job without cover so much artwork.

 Sfx Magazine - The CHUD.COM Message Boards
Hmm not to sure about the best science fiction magazine out there statement, I have to say that SFX should be called "Fanboy whimsy monthly" or "Fashionable Fanboy".
Even after Buffy, for example, has long since past and Angel has also gone the way of the dodo, SFX still manage to fill substantial amount of its copy with interviews and a regular "We're in with Joss Whedon" scoop or gush.
Yes, the humour in Sfx can be pretty childish sometimes, but i kinda like it.They don“t go to far like Wizard magazine though.That rag is horrible.
