2011-07-31 03:50:00 Have you seen Director Anthony Hemingway’s new movie trailer for ‘Red Tails’? Get our review of the two minute clip here and why we think Red Tails is sure to dominate the box office come this new year! The first official trailer for the George Lucas’ penned ad produced movie Red Tails’ has hit the web, making the long wait worthwhile. After years of waiting for Lucas to put pen to paper on something outside of both Star Wars and Indiana Jones, the time has come and so far it looks like Lucas, and his cohorts, Hemingway and scribe John Ridley (Third Watch & Three Kings), have really created quite a sight, and story for the big screen. For the unknown, ‘Red Tails’ is based on a true story and chronicles the “Tuskegee Airmen, the first African-American pilots to fly in a combat squadron during World War II.” Starring in the film is the awesome and always amazing Terrence Howard as the character Col.

'Smallville' star Alaina Huffman (Black Canary) flies higher than ever on '
2010-05-14 20:50:00 By BOB ANDELMAN Alaina Huffman is a double-dipper. When it comes to commanding the hearts and minds of fanboys?and, no doubt, fangirls?the world over, Huffman holds not one but two roles of substantial interest in the TV sci-fi/comic book universe. On The CW?s long-running ?Smallville? series?you know, where Clark Kent is no longer a Superboy, but not quite a Superman?she is the Black Canary?the fishnet, leather-clad blonde Green Arrow has stashed on his balcony. And now on SyFy?s new series, ?Stargate Universe,? she plays 1st Lt. Tamara Johansen?T.J., the ship?s medical officer. SGU, which also stars Robert Carlyle, Ming-Na, Louis Ferreira, Elyse Levesque, Alaina Huffman, Lou Diamond Phillips and David Blue, follows a band of men and women who must fend for themselves as they are attacked and forced to retreat through a Stargate. The survivors emerge aboard an ancient ship that is locked on an unknown course and unable to return to Earth. It combines many elements of the ...

Dead Flies
2008-10-17 20:48:00 The small press literary community has lost another publisher. It has been announced that Zygote In My Coffee has folded. No reasons have been given, but then reasons are never really needed when you are dealing with poetry. No one supports poetry. There is no money to be made. I have long been an avid reader and fan of Zygote. It is sad to see it gone, for many reasons. The least of which is that they had planned to release my chapbook "Apocalypse Generation" in 2009. That won't be happening. I have no current plans to submit this chapbook to any other publisher.RC Edrington

Those Pesky Flies
2008-05-27 12:01:00 I haven't done a fly post yet this year, so I thought I would now, since yesterday was really our first hot day and it seemed to be most noticeable. We, as horse companions and owners are forever battling the dreaded fly. This year I'm trying a new strategy and combining forces. It's important in so many ways to keep the fly population down for the health of your horse. Not only because they are annoying to our horse friends, but spread disease and parasites, so along with a good worming program we should have a good fly elimination program. I have decided to use Fly Predators this year to help keep the fly population at bay. I've already spread my second bag and I must say, I believe it's working already. I've heard lots of good reports about them and dozens of testimonies about how well they and so I ordered a 7 month supply that get shipped to me around the same time each month. The cost was about $130 for the season's supply. They come to me in a dormant pupae stage in a ...

Dropping Like Flies
2008-05-17 14:26:00 It was like a scene from a horror movie. I looked around the room wondering where the dead body was hidden. It was like the episode of CSI where a room was infested with flies, but the body was well hidden and Grisham’s team had to knock down the walls to find it. I looked in the rubbish bin, and there wasn’t even a mouldy ham sandwich which could have attracted such a following. The window of room 5 was dotted with hundreds of black dots, and several more were flying around the room nonchalantly, like they owned the place. They had claimed their domain, but it was time for us to reclaim it. Armed with just a Nippon Fly Killer spray and wet towels around our faces to avoid breathing in too much toxic air, we got to work. The instructions said that for a “knockdown” you should spray in strong bursts then leave the room for 15 minutes. That done we sorted out the lesser gatherings in reception and other rooms. We had to be ruthless. Not one fly survived our ...

To witness firsthand the stresses on your body that these pilots endure is really remarkable.” “Lieutenant Weisser and I talked the entire time we were in the air about what I should expect and how my body was going to react to different circumstances,” said Clark. “It was a wild ride and an unbelievable feeling.
