After his song "All Along The Watchtower" was used in the final episode, to summon the 4 of the last 5 Cylons, people began to question how to interpret Dylan and BSG Universe. Is there a Dylan in BSG Universe too Is there a direct connection to Earth? or is it just a ethereal source that inspired two song-writers in two universes?
I have my shot at answering all these questions. I think Dylan the 5th final Cylon, used as the model for the hybrid. It is well known that hybrids are the first step from the Centurions into humanoids, and it is highly likely that the Christian interpretation of God creating humans as a model of himself would be referenced here, and the first Cylon-Human would be modeled after the Cylon God.
Dylan himself is known to utter like the Hybrids, here is a mix of lyrics out of Blonde on Blonde:
"The ghost of electricity howls in the bones of her face. And punched my cigarette. Now your dancing child with his Chinese suit. In the empty lot where the ladies play blind man's bluff with the key chain. The one was Texas medicine. Upon the street where mothers weep. The cracked bells and washed-out horns. You can tell by the way she smiles. The silver saxophones say I should refuse you. The drunken politician leaps. Well, I return to the Queen of Spades.He spoke to me, I took his flute. He just smoked my eyelids. Now the rainman gave me two cures. But Mona Lisa musta' had the highway blues. The other was just railroad gin. Blow into my face with scorn."
Sounds just like a hybrid, doesn't it?

Battlestar Galactica vixen talks Command and Conquer 3
IGN.com has a nice interview with our favourite cylon Grace Park about her starring in the new C&C Tiberium Wars:
For fans of the supremely fine science fiction series (remake) 'Battlestar Galactica', actress Grace Park should be a familiar face. Her role as the mysterious Lt. Sharon 'Athena' Agathon obviously grabbed the right people's attention, as she has been cast in a leading role in Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars. In her interview, she discusses her transition from TV to games, her character, and what it was like to work with Michael Ironside and Billy 'Lando Calrissian' Dee Williams.Read the whole interview here...

Sandra Telfair is the special assistant to General Granger at GDI’s Central Headquarters. Sandra is a staunch supporter of GDI, sometimes letting her emotions get the better of her in response to Nod’s terror tactics – she is a window into the moral righteousness and resolve that defines GDI. With a background in military intelligence, Sandra is not just an admin – she is a very capable officer and actively contributes to operations in progress. She functions as Granger’s “right hand”, almost equivalent to his chief of staff. She holds both Granger and the player character in the highest esteem and in fact idolizes them both.

Kilian Qatar is charming, highly intelligent, politically savvy, and – when the situation demands – ruthless. She is the second highest ranking leader in the Brotherhood of Nod, serving as Kane’s right hand and head of Nod’s Inner Circle. Kilian came up through the ranks of the Brotherhood, proving herself as a superb military commander and politician and demonstrating her loyalty to Kane (and her ability to “manage up” to the sociopathic supreme leader).

Biography for Paul Campbell aka Billy
Paul Campbell (Billy Keikeya) almost left "Battlestar Galactica" (2004) after the end of Season One since he wasn't under contract. After his new show didn't work out, he returned for Season Two. The producers asked him to sign a five-year contract. He didn't respond and the producers sensed he wasn't committed to the show. They couldn't write long-term story arcs because they didn't know if Campbell would be available. Thus, they decided to kill off Billy, according to Campbell. Though he appreciates quality TV shows, he is not a science-fiction fan. It was difficult for him to leave the show, but Campbell says it was the right choice. He's said he wouldn't mind coming back to Battlestar Galactica as a guest star, playing a Cylon.http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1353748/bio
