Cooked Cook’s books?

The half brother of Dane Cook has pleaded not guilty to additional charges that he stole millions of dollars from the comedian.

Darryl McCauley was arraigned Tuesday in Middlesex Superior Court in Massachusetts. He was ordered to continue to be held on $1 million bail.

Prosecutors say the 43-year-old Wilmington man wrote company checks to himself and transferred funds into his personal bank accounts while working as Cook’s business manager.

Bridges and ‘TRON’

Jeff Bridges promises the new “TRON” is just as groundbreaking as the 27-year-old original.

The 59-year-old actor and star of the original film came to Comic Con Thursday to help present early footage from “TRON: Legacy,” due in 2010.

Bridges notes that when “TRON” was released in 1982, the Internet and personal computers didn’t exist. The futuristic tale took viewers to a digitized virtual world, a concept that was decades ahead of its time.
