Are These Space Nazis Fighting Sarah Palin?? Behold The Unbridaled Dementia Of This New IRON SKY Trailer!!
Merrick here...
A few weeks ago, we got a look at a different version of this trailer. You know, the "motherfucking Space Nazis" version?
Here's a slicker, more Hollywoodized trailer for the same project...this one centering one a Sarah Palin-eque government lady (is she the President of the United States, or...?) and offering a generous dose of flashy high-tech warfare against those goddamn Nazi space bastards.
Here you go...
The film's official site is HERE.

The acting is still complete shit, aside from Udo of course.

a couple funny ideas mashed together with shit doesn't make a movie...oh wait it makes movies everyday

Yes! Fucking Laibach!

I'm going to see this movie just because they had the brass balls to make Laibach the soundtrack to their trailer.

This is either gonna be great or shit...i dont think it can be just ok, or not to good.. When you make a film about space nazis you must be a genius or an idiot...I really cant wait to see where this lands

I see this as possibly being the same tone as Starship Troopers or as weird as a half drunk makeout session with a girl only to realize it was a tranny.

This should be a hilarious concept.
by schnide
But somehow, it just doesn't work for me. There'll be real Nazis still alive, and those Nazis? They did some really bad things, that I don't think should be made into a cool or comical enemy - or at least, not like this.

are we supposed to forget the millions of Jews who died under the Nazi regime? and they are making it to be some kinda joke? the world is more fucked up than we know it!
Feb. 8, 2012, 1:24 p.m. CST
Dunno if it should have been a comedy.
by thethedew
They seem to be going for the 'Mars Attacks' vibe, when I personally thing they should have gone full-on 'Sky Captain' pulp. Of course, neither of those movies were, eh... well, successful movies, so maybe ti doesn't matter which way they went.

Too bad they didn't get Lisa Ann to play Sarah Palin...

Feb. 8, 2012, 1:57 p.m. CST
Nazi imagery. Sarah Palin
by Riff_Randell
Oh yeah. Hilarious. :\
Kind of hilarious and action-packed, so that's cool. Seems like the kind of film you don't normally see it theaters anymore, that's for sure. I give the filmmakers a lot of credit. I really have no idea whether it'll kick serious ass or not, but at least the space battles look a million times better than anything in the last three Star Wars films. I'll probably see it for this reason alone.
Feb. 8, 2012, 1:58 p.m. CST
Did I really write "Nazies?" Wow.

Nope, not gonna correct it. You know what I meant.

I was hoping no one would be a fucking retard...then fawst spoke up
by corplhicks
Fawst, you're such a fucking blithering moron. Really ! Try opening up a map and look at what surrounds Israel. Then study some politics and look at the ONLY democracy in the Middle East with a representative government modeled after England, a country where women and men are treated equally, a country where on a Saturday night in Tel Aviv, in the clubs, movies, restaurants, the people live a free life like most other Western country's citizens and who treat their children with love, and I assure you none of them ever trains them to be suicide bombers or to intentionally bomb civilians etc.. Why don't you try studying some history-- because the Jews who live there have a biblical claim to that land and even the Arabs do not deny that; however, they easily put aside religion and stress modern, recent history when it's convenient and religion and ancient history when convenient. Get the idea, you dumb fuck. Israel is the ONLY country in the entire Middle East where Jews and Christians and Muslims can pray absolutely freely with equal rights-- in fact there are zero issues between Christians and Jews there, like most everywhere else. Tell me, you 'tard, would you like every country, ever acre of land to be given back to whomever yells the loudest citing some European country that divided up land long ago? you want the map of Europe redrawn AGAIN? Israel's borders are from UN Law AND the effect of defeating enemies who on all sides attack you-- sorry but in my book, when people lose wars, they need to pay a price, especially when they are the aggressor time and time again. It's a TINY little country-- I see it's way too big for you !

for a moment I thought that was the release date rather than when it takes place. Given how slowly this project has developed it would almost be believable.

Why did they make this campy/tongue-in-cheek? Nazis on the moon is a GREAT premise, don't chicken out of it with a "wink wink." I was so interested in this project when I thought they were taking it seriously. Now I couldn't give two Aryan shits.

Then I saw that lame-ass poster and feared it was going to completely suck. Then I watched that trailer and my worst fears were confirmed. Close, but no cigar, mein Herr. Such a wasted opportunity. Space Nazis + low-budget comedy = Shite.

I'm not going to get into that never-ending debate, but check your facts before asking other people do so while insulting them in a very non-democratic way: Israel borders are not as per the 1947 UN Partition plan. Fact.

If you don't get Irony, don't see the flick. If you're a fucking Nazi by another name - and anyone who thinks Israel is a free country except for just a few million Palestinians who don't count, counts - then fuck you and your fucking holier than thou bible. Humans are humans. Funny is funny. Fuckers are fuckers. Fuck you if you can't take a joke, dick.

I'll check it out. Why not? Looks fun.
by Quake II
I would have preferred a more serious tone but a plot about Moon Nazis attacking earth would be hard to take seriously. If it wasn't for the German scientists we snatched up at the close of World War 2, we wouldn't have landed on the moon as quickly as we did. We also stole their jet plane technology with captured ME 262's. Rocket propulsion research was started by the Nazis in the 1930's. They were much further along than us in many high tech areas.

Thread: End of game with little doubt...
End of game with little doubt...
well, the game just ended...it's about 5 after midnight here in PA. i have to say: WHAT A GREAT FUCKING GAME! even though the vikes lost i can't help feeling half-decent about this game... the front four got to the QB, would have liked to see a bit more 5 man rushes but good job... manning throwing with his left hand to clinch the win was unexpected. culpepper played with confidence...he never gave up. Onterio played awesome... the corners only gave up one TB to a WR, Indy's biggest threats...good job there. i hate that they lost, but the vikes have to feel pretty good about some of the shit they did...
Marcus Robinson was near absent.--diss! Bennett is worthless--diss!--in the shadows of O. Smith, really... Nate Burleson played awesome and came up with the big plays...if the game would have went to OT i feel the VIKES would have won... maybe the vikes used one too many time outs in the second half...they really could of used one... and if they would have won Burleson would easily get the Horse Trailor of the game... anyway, great game. the vikes played well... indy squeaked by. if the vikes play this well next week against GB, we should win...

BENDIGO'S Glenn Ashby is the A Class Catamaran world champion for an eighth time.
The 36-year-old made light work of an elite field at the regatta at Takapuna Beach in New Zealand.
Ashby was in the top three in eight of nine races, including three victories.
He had a stranglehold on the title going into the final race and he cruised to second place behind fellow Aussie star Nathan Outteridge.
"This was a tough field, really classy. It was the toughest one I've had to win, but also the most enjoyable," Ashby told stuff.co.nz after his victory.
Ashby's remarkable sailing career has now netted him 15 world sailing titles across three divisions and an Olympic silver medal in Beijing in 2008.
A key member of Team New Zealand's America's Cup program, Ashby had little time to celebrate.
He was straight on a plane to Singapore to link up with the Team New Zealand crew.
Their next challenge is round one of the Extreme 40 series.
The international event is raced over eight rounds at different venues around the world.
Ashby is a two-time winner of the Bendigo Bank-backed Bendigo Advertiser-WIN Television Sports Star of the Year award.

A South Georgia band performed at Cordele's Chick-Fil-A to promote an upcoming Christian concert at the Albany Civic Center.
Unbroken sang for guests tonight and even gave away tickets to the March 28th Casting Crowns concert.
They hope to see more Christian concerts in South Georgia.
"If we could bring more Christian bands in our area I think it would help our families, I think it would help our cities. I don't think there's anything better than to bring good clean, wholesome family entertainment into our cities. We need more of it," said Dave Wilson with Unbroken.
The group will be at the Tifton Chick-Fil-A next Thursday to give away more free tickets.

Why do some guys shake their legs when they're sitting beside you?
what is the significance of this behavior and what does it mean?
What's Your Opinion?
Most Helpful Opinion
actually, scientifically the answer is that we are nervous, and its a way for us to settle down, oddly enough, ud think shaking would be worsebut take it for what it isif he's nervous, he likes you
Haha, jk jk, umm yeah, kinda figured youd think that
Cocky, are we?
Wow. thanks that's what I thought, I know I'm hot.
What Guys Said 5
If he was just sitting next to you while studying don't assume that he was doing it because he was nervous. Chances are he wasn't, he was simply doing it out of habit. I do it when in my room studying by myself. It's something to do, I can't just sit there and concentrate unless I'm distracting myself (if that makes sense). In fact I'm doing it right now. You may be hot, but I'm not entirely sure your that hot :P
Lol yeah I'm hot and I know it. but thx.
Leg shaking, especially as it relates to hormonally charged males, is a warning sign of imminent gastric profusion. I recommend that upon noting this sign, you clear the area immediately! Or, simply light a match.
Lol gas
IF you mean bouncing their leg up, and down they're probably nervous. And some people just don't notice that they're doing it.
It's just a habit. On occasion, it means the guy has to pee, is nervous, or is stressed.
i sort of bounce my leg up and down but I don't even realise I'm doing itsome of my mates said they do it on purpose for something to do with the friction =/ seems a bit weird to me =L
Lol I mean this guy I was with he was studying beside me and it was crazy, the table shook several times and he didn't even notice
What Girls Said 2
It might be nervousness, but I bounce my leg up and down a lot of the time with out noticing. Just fidgeting. But if you notice a guy doing this only when he's sitting near you, I'd say he was probably feeling nervous - which is a good thing, because that probably means he likes you.
It's a form of fidgetting, I think.

Ex-Client Awarded $867K Against Lawyer Who Stole $75K and Law Firm That Referred Her to Him
Posted Oct 16, 2012 1:30 PM CDT
By Martha Neil
A woman whose lawyer misappropriated most of the $100,000 she was supposed to get in a probate case has had her day in court and was teary-eyed after a $867,000 jury verdict Monday in Bexar County, Texas.
"I am very pleased. The jury believed in me," Isabel Sloan told the San Antonio Express-News.
The award includes $377,000 against now-disbarred attorney Eric Turton, who gave Sloan $25,000 of a $100,000 probate settlement she was supposed to get and admittedly kept the rest, as well as another attorney, Oscar C. Gonzalez, who referred her to Turton. An additional $200,000 was awarded against Gonzalez and his law firm, plus the verdict includes attorney's fees for Kolb of a little over $290,000.
Although Gonzalez contended that he had simply referred Sloan to Turton, who had rented office space from him, Sloan contended that Gonzalez should have known Turton had a history of disciplinary issues and took a $2,500 retainer. Turton testified that Gonzalez referred cases to him and got a portion of the attorney's fees. Testimony at trial also showed that some of Sloan's money went to pay law office rent, the article says.
The jury found both lawyers responsible for a $75,000 misappropriation and fraud and additionally held Gonzalez and his firm liable for false, misleading and deceptive acts and practices and gross negligence.
Turton was disbarred as a result of taking the money, but there is no public record of any disciplinary against against Gonzalez, the newspaper reports.
Sloan's lawyer, Carl Kolb, told the Express-News that the local grievance committee of the State Bar of Texas "utterly failed her and has become a good ol' boy system."
Attorney Phil Watkins, who represents Gonzalez, said "We're going to consider all of our options for appeal."

The Brazilian website TATAME posted a short article regarding Chuck Liddell's request to train with Paulo Filho for Liddell's fight against Wanderlei Silva at UFC 79. The following article has been run through a translator:
Paulo: "I would not train American to fight with Brazilian"Jiu-jitsu black belt, Paulo Filho travels on December 8 for the United States to do his first defense of belt against Chael Sonnen, in the WEC 31, which happens on December 12. In exclusive interview with TATAME, Paulo told how it went to prepare for the fight and commented on the invitation he received to train Chuck Liddell in the struggle against Wanderlei Silva in the UFC 79. "I would never train with an American to fight with a Brazilian. I am not a slut, or a prostitute," said the champion middleweight of the WEC. Check the interview in the full text, tomorrow morning, here in the site TATAME.
Whoa. Doesn't look like Filho's interested. ***UPDATED: READ MORE FOR FULL INTERVIEW*** Now, mind you, this has been run through a translator. Everything doesn't translate over perfectly. Also, I'm no speaker-of-Portuguese, so I did not take any liberties in changing the translations. I am assuming the untranslated word, "trocação" has something to do with a striking or stand up style of fighting. Enjoy.
Who is going to accompany you in the WEC? With who trained?
The (Josuel) Distak and the Amaury Bitetti are with me. I did a work with the Thiagão Medeiros, which is my pupil, with the Distak, which cannot be lacking, with Rafael Manteiga, with the Amaury Bitetti, with the Arona that was here yesterday with the Minotauro to help me, with this people.
What the Chael Sonnen finds of?
It is a face I last, with back ground of Wrestling good of fall, it knocks down very well. I am going to have to be careful not to be knocked down, but if as fortune I to fall for bass will have some surprises for him. I will not have the problems what I had in my another struggle. This time I am not taking any more medicines to sleep and am going to be strong and fed. We are going to see in what it is going to give.
How the weight is?
At the moment I am with 93 kg, because I prefer to leave to take away at the last moments, since I do not want to train weakly. I want to train strongly and with this weight I do not damage my training.
Are you close with the Team Link? One is going to move for the United States?
I am close with Team Link yes. They have a fantastic infrastructure, it has Gabriel Napão who is excellent and I will be going to act they here. I have the interest to live in America, but for the time being I am going to stay here.
What you gain with this change?
I was very well received there. I did several seminars and I believe that the sport has greatly growing there. They have a very good infrastructure there, have the Napão that gained weight, it is stronger and is the best fighter. I think that I win and they also, with my name and my knowledge.
The Thiago Silva is an athlete of Jorge Patino Macaco and of the Chute Boxe and also it is in the Team Link. Will you have any problem in training with him?
I have not anything against the Thiago Silva, he is excellent and only I have to congratulate it. He only faced quarry, they are that the great fighters are simple, like the Stench, by me, the Shogun. This behaviour erases, does not need to be doing faces and mouths, I think them to myself what he is still going to ripen. He is going to learn what the champions also lose. I think that he has total condition to be the champion of this category. He is to be congratulated.
How it will be the struggle of the Napão against the Fabrício Werdum?
I was the arbiter of the first struggle and the Napão was better in the beginning, I am them that he was prepared badly physically and the Werdum finished turning. I was very much criticized in the time because the stick ate in the struggle and I did not interrupt. But are the two black belts and I did not feel what they wanted to stop, then as I am going to put the hand in the struggle? I think that it is going to be a war. The Napão is excellent and the Werdum also. I prefer not to give hunch and wait for a great show.
What it finds of the defense of belt of the Anderson Silva against Dan Henderson?
I entrust 100 % in the Anderson. I think that he has to train more the clinche because the Henderson is wrestler, believe them to myself that he will not bring problems to the Anderson. The Anderson is more long and in this weight he is "undefeatable".
You received proposal to train Chuck Liddell. Did you accept the proposal?
Really the proposal was done, I did not accept them to myself. It would never train with an American to fight with a Brazilian. I am not a slut, or a prostitute. We are we against the foreigners. I was for there now and I saw which athlete in America has everything he needs, they are treated well and here in Brazil it is the opposite. So then I am going to train with the foreigners? I am a Brazilian until I die.
How it will be this struggle does it erase against the Liddell?
An advice for the Wanderlei is which struggle is not it fights. If he is for the frank trocação with the Liddell it is going to fall. He has Vale-Tudo wrestling and not Muay Thai fight. He has to put down and to punish the Liddell. This is the way from the stones. I support him. It is a face fighter, he was already a bouncer of bar, he is a Brazilian and is a destruction of the Americans.
A new organization, the M-1, is doing events in Japan with all the staffs of the Pride. What it finds of that? You will fight again in Japan?
First I have to do my life in America. I am going to have to try again now that I have conditions to be a champion. I am going to have to kill another lion. After my contract to finish, I am going to study the proposals and I will choose the best. It would like returning to Japan because I am adapted to the climate of there. I am a fighter of BJJ, what is a style that does not please very much the Americans, whom they prefer trocação, I me them wait that the Americans start to admire mine also. Already in Japan, them they prefer this another style.
Iam not a slut or a prostittute……hahahaahahahahahhahah that might just be the best quote ever…

He hate Chute but won't help an American beat one of their old stars? Sounds to me like he hates Americans even more.

That's it, Paulo is clearly a terrorist. Take 'em out boys…

Those Brazilians stick together…

Good, Liddell seems like he desparate, wow what a differece a year makes…Liddell seemed unstoppable before Rampage got a hold of him…
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
Clearly, Paulo's just having trouble weaning off of the Pride roids, right Paul?
Seriously though, Filho has a right to his loyalties. The relatively small money in MMA may not be enough to buy the entirety of a man's soul, just every part you can stick a logo on and the hand that holds the energy drink. War Bra-sil. Oh, and it's a good idea for Liddell to work on his grappling, cuz Wandy is a BJJ black belt, right?

That's funny "Jaydog." Your input is greatly valued.

This fight isn't going to the ground, who are you guys fooling…..These guys are coming out swinging……
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
"This fight isn't going to the ground, who are you guys fooling…..These guys are coming out swinging……"
I wouldnt be surprised at all if it hits the ground. With Randys master mind planing, I think Wandy will come out strong and rough Liddell up in the first round or 2 then shoot in for the take-down and try some ground and pound.
I'd rather just see Wandy KO Chuck in the 1st round and be over with it.
Chuck's been running and hiding, but no more of that, mooowhahahah!!!
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
I love Wanderlei Silva, in a totally un-gay sort of way….
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
That is called a "Man-Crush" jjdnb, you have one on Wanderlei… It's ok to admit it, thats the first step to recovery.
I don't think that this fight will hit the ground to much, maybe a couple shots to score some points for the judges, but this will be a slug fest. Wanderlei will win, Chuck has problems with fighters that can outstrike him, there are so few we don't see it often, but we will with Wanderlei. Chuck will eat a few, and once on the defensive, I could see him being taken down, but not for any serious ground fighting attemps, just solid game planning. This is not a 5 round fight, a couple takedowns could win it if timed correctly.
I am totaly impressed by Filho, he has never had to many nice things to say about Chute Box, or Wanderlei. I would have totaly thought he would be a guy to step up to help prep against Wanderlei, or Shogun. I'm glad to be proven wrong, I am a fan on many Brazilian fighters and It's cool to see a little National pride, even when its for a rival.
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
whoa… lets post the rest of the article NOW instead of starting rumors!!
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
most likely reading the full interview you highlighted a certain "quote" to headline your article to stir up some shit.. i highly doubt Filho has negative things to say about chuck.. but you make it seem that way..
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
well cool guy, the web site hasn't released the full interview yet or else i would. chill out man bro. Still a pretty strong quote though. I don't think he is going on to be like, "I'm not a slut, or a prostitute! But Chuck is a really awesome guy and I totally would train him, but my daughter has a "football" game next weekend." So calm down…. whoa.
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
…so yeah. Just ran the full interview through a translator. Doesn't seem much better "steve24." Check it out.
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
i couldnt understand that interview
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
"I was very much criticized in the time because the stick ate in the struggle and I did not interrupt."
What a great friggin' translation. I have no idea what he said, but it sounds awesome.
Regarding Filho's weight, I'm not sure what he was trying to say, but he usually claims he gets up to 100 kg between fights. I still think he's carrying too much weight. Once he gets to the big show, I suspect he's going to find his frame too small to compete at 185.
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
I understand the frustration while reading this rough translation. It has only been run through an online translator. I think that much of the problem is with slang and modern terminology that translators may not be familiar with. I ran this interview through several translators, and got pretty much the same results. I am working on getting this interview translated by an actual person, but this is what we have for now. I did not post this to try and portray Filho in a bad light at all, this is just the news as I've been receiving it. Hopefully I can get a hold on a better translation.
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
Paul, your right. My bad!!!
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
"I entrust 100 % in the Anderson."
Backed. I am also not a slut. I like Filho even more after this.
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
Filho should have trained will Liddell because he got his ass kicked royally by Chael Sonnen in both the standup fight as well as ground and pound and it wasn't until the end of the last round when Sonnen tried to finish Filho with ground and pound that Sonnen got caught otherwise Filho got totally dominated like Geroge St. Pierre did against Hughs.

As a part of our family tradition of going on a trip for our sixteenth birthdays, my family landed in Florence, Italy for Sammi's 16th, which also fell on the day after my high school graduation. I could already tell it was going to be one of my favorite stops on the trip (out of Rome, Venice and Siena). It didn't take much more than sunshine, art and delicious food.
Following the advice of the always-wise Rick Steves, whose guidebook was like the Bible for our trip, we went in search of a place called Trattoria Mario for lunch. Rick had yet to lead us astray, pointing us to my favorite hotel of the trip, Hotel Loggiato dei Serviti, across from the Ospedale degli Innocenti.
Finding it proved to be somewhat difficult, since we didn't speak any Italian and it was off the beaten tourist path. But once we found it, we knew we were in the right place if we wanted a great meal.
The small family-run joint is only open for lunch, and usually closed for the off-season, and customers enjoy their food at shared tables. The pasta bolognese was the best I've ever had.
The family was very friendly to picky American tourists and Elena, wife to the late Mario and mother and boss to Romeo and Fabio, was nice enough to pose for a picture with us.
If you go, don't be afraid to rub elbows with strangers. You never know who you might meet.

As the warm-weather season hits full swing, people are anxious to find the best beaches and seaside towns. Others may want to set down roots in these towns, so they'll have ocean views all year long.
With thousands of miles of coastline, there are many beach towns that make great retreats. Here are some top picks, courtesy of AOL travel.
1. Chincoteague Island, Virginia: This area off Virginia's coast is a nature lover's paradise.
2. Rockport, Texas:Rockport is continually renowned for its spotless beaches.
3. Provincetown, Massachusetts: This town is located at the tip of Cape Cod but can be more fun and laid back.
4. Pismo Beach, California: This town is known as California's clam capital.
5. Cannon Beach, Oregon:The landscape features hulking boulders, tidal pools and forests plunging into the Pacific.

Enter Your Short in YouTube's 'Your Film Festival' for a Chance to Win a $500k Grant from Ridley Scott
YouTube's crowdsourced, Ridley Scott-produced, Kevin Macdonald-directed Life in a Day was an excellent, globe-spanning, and touching film (watch it free in its entirety here). YouTube and Scott are not done, however: they've just announced a new contest calling for story-driven shorts, and the winner gets a $500k grant to make new work.
15 minutes to tell a story. Millions of people to watch it. $500,000 to make a new one for the world to see. This is Your Film Festival. You have until March 31st to submit a short, story-driven video. There's no entry fee. It can be any format – short film, web-series episode, TV pilot – and any genre. In June, audiences around the world will vote, sending 10 deserving storytellers to open the 2012 Venice Film Festival where a Grand Prize Winner will be be rewarded with a $500,000 grant to create a new work, produced by Ridley Scott and his world class team.
Submissions open February 2nd and close March 31st; there are no entry fees.

[via Tubefilter]
We're all here for the same reason: to better ourselves as writers, directors, cinematographers, producers, photographers... whatever our creative pursuit. Criticism is valuable as long as it is constructive, but personal attacks are grounds for deletion; you don't have to agree with us to learn something. We're all here to help each other, so thank you for adding to the conversation!
Archie on 01.22.12 @ 6:31AM
Great opportunity but I know that so many talented people will enter!
All the more reason to make a good effort Archie ;-)
Haven't tended to bother too much with short film festival entries in the past – expensive, unclear selection criteria and horrendous rules on 'premiere status'… This, on the other hand, sounds great – I'm in! Some of the entries are going to be amazing – looking forward to seeing them.
Spence on 01.22.12 @ 8:50AM
This sounds great! I've been experimenting with Iphone filmmaking (which is surprisingly robust and customizable) so maybe I can do a short film for this contest that will also work as a test short for the iphone. Win win!
Will. on 01.22.12 @ 10:32AM
sound great. Only problem is that it's crowd voted…which means a lot of shameless self promotion which is soul draining stuff.
Jeffrey on 01.23.12 @ 6:52PM
An unfortunate, but necessary aspect of this business. Particularly one that thrives on marketing and publicity.
Jacques E. Bouchard on 01.26.12 @ 9:35PM
I completely disagree. Popular-vote supported contests are an abomination that reward the biggest spammers and cheats, not the most talented. I never enter and I never vote.
Jeffrey on 01.27.12 @ 2:06AM
Well I was referring more to his statement of "shameless self promotion" being "soul draining stuff". I agree, but its similar to how movies rely heavily on marketing and publicity.
Fuad Hasan on 01.24.12 @ 12:37AM
Hey whats the age limit?
you have to be 18
you have to be 18 years old
I am in sync with Will's post…crowd voting calls for soliciting votes from wherever. Does that not,in some way
,demerit the value of the entries?
Confucious say "He who has lots of friends make good movie" (paraphrase).
Rachael on 01.29.12 @ 1:16AM
Here is an opportunity to win one half million dollars to make another short or long story. Just make the short, send it in and promote it. Why do all you guys have to complain all the time? Just give it your best shot and show the rest of us your talent.
Good luck,
Howie on 01.30.12 @ 8:07PM
Can it be as simple as telling a story by a campfire? If the story was good, and had a twist at the end? That's how some of the greatest stories were told.
They're looking for the worlds greatest story tellers right?
Am a screenwriter, limited acting skills but thinking of doing a live, meta-fiction piece. One location. MINIMAL effects, grainy laptop with a few effect elements at the end twist.
Would i be the laughing stock, even if the story was really engaging and told well?

Since the Leafs have been out of action, we haven't featured as many James Mirtle's articles as we normally do around here, and it's a cryin' shame. Fortunate then, that this morning, we've got a trifecta of Mirtle "win" to share with you.
The first article is a nice piece featuring John-Michael Liles, and his recent work at SickKids Hospital in Toronto. Liles also has some cool things to say about the other new Leafs, with whom he already has some first-hand experience:
[Tim Connolly] "I've known Tim for quite a while. We played world junior together and played against each other for a number of years. I think he's a great player. I think he's got an enormous amount of talent and is going to add a lot."
[Cody Franson] "I've played him a few times over the past few years. An impressive defenceman – big guy, big shot and a young kid that has got a bright future."
[Matt Lombardi] "Once he works past his concussion issues he had last year, he's a tremendous player. Very fast, tough to play against. A guy that gave our team fits when he was playing in Calgary."
Read on, for more Mirtle, as well as a number of really great articles from The Leafs Nation. Lots of interesting stuff today, so read up. It's good for you, like broccoli.
Leafs Links:

Retired numbers: A long-standing debate in Leafland
Michael Langlois likes the way the Habs have handled retiring jerseys. Maybe that's a bad start, but join the debate.

[Note by Cornrows, 04/09/09 8:26 AM EDT psvirsky shines a light on Kansas big man, Cole Aldrich in his in his continuing series of draft prospects. Great job, PS! Keep 'em coming.]
Okay maybe I shouldn't use puns in titles. Speaking of the name Aldrich, I just read about Aldrich Ames for class - a guy who spied for the Soviets against us. Total alcohlic. Went undetected for almost a decade. Crazy that this sort of thing can still happen, definitely worth reading the wikipedia page for an interesting story. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aldrich_Ames
Anyways, someone mentioned Aldrich in the Steph Curry discussion so I figured we'd move on to him. The guy has legitimate Center size at 6'11 and 250. He didn't play too much last year on the championship winning team but has become the main guy down low this year for another solid team. Honestly, my main concern is just that he's a definite center and not a PF so it would be tough to get him and Dr. Hibbert on the floor at once. Also, he hasn't declared and it seems like things are up in the air about it (his draft stock is really high but he could probably use some more experience).
On to his play.
He averaged 15 and 11 this year shooting nearly 60% from the field and almost 3 blocks a game. He had the first ever triple double in Kansas history (with 10 blocks). He's not super athletic but he can move around more than well enough. Definitely a smart player who can bang down low (although he doesn't do enough banging). He's got a nice jumper with pretty good range (15 feet or so) and some nice moves in the post. His best attribute is probably rebounding - one of the top guys in college this year. He shoots over 80% from the line which is great for a big man.
I actually haven't seen a whole ton of his play outside of the tournament and random big games. ThirtyOne mentioned a certain expertise on Kansas players so I would pay more attention to what he says over me. I'll leave you with a few quotes from draftexpress (their write-up is from December and he's only improved since then): http://www.draftexpress.com/profile/Cole-Aldrich-1250/
- It looks as though he added a good amount of muscle in the offseason, an improvement that speaks to one of our most significant concerns coming into this season.
- possessing neither elite leaping ability nor lateral quickness, but for his size he is certainly a mobile player who clearly has ample physical tools to play in the NBA.
- he made strides this year to diversify his offensive repertoire, showing range out to 18-feet and a variety of moves in the post, including a trusty turnaround jumpshot and a baby hook off of the dribble. In addition, Aldrich is doing a much better job of getting open in the post, using his body and his soft hands to establish position under the basket. Once he receives the ball in the deep post, he tends to either score, get his own rebound should he miss, or get to the line.
- Aldrich's potential as a jump-shooter also signals his biggest problem at this stage: his propensity to avoid contact, choosing to fall away from the basket or take a spot-up jump-shot rather than bang in the post. A player with Aldrich's body should attack the basket at a much greater rate than he currently does.
- he most significant area of concern in Aldrich's defensive game is his lack of elite lateral quickness.
Take it away!

"I enjoyed having the opportunity to coach Terrell Owens, and I appreciate his contributions to our team over the past two years. In our time together, I saw one of the more productive and explosive players in the NFL at the receiver position. I think that when his playing days come to an end he will have compiled a career that is worthy of the Hall of Fame.

Images of Pope Benedict XVI's last day as pontiff were watched in the Bay area and around the world on Thursday, giving followers the rare sight of a pope stepping down before more familiar tradition kicks in to choose a new leader.
Benedict, 85, announced earlier this month that he would resign, citing his advanced age. It has been hundreds of years since a pope stepped down instead of serving in that role until death.
"It's like a 'wow' moment," said Vallida Garnica, coming out of mass at Sacred Heart Catholic church in downtown Tampa. Garnica said she had mixed emotions, including some of sadness to say goodbye to Pope Benedict. "It is also very exciting, like, 'Oh my gosh, who's God going to have next to lead us?'" she said. "It's very exciting to me."
Father Matthew Gamber, who said he got up early to watch the day's events with other priests, described the day as "bittersweet." "There's a real sadness and yet sense of peace and a sense of trust that the Holy Father knows what he's doing," Garner said a few hours before the resignation took effect. "He's made this decision, he's executing it, so we know him and love him."
It will be up to the College of Cardinals now to choose a new pope, with those under age 80 casting secret ballots in a process that requires a two-thirds majority. Garner, who teaches theology at Jesuit High School, said he expects the balloting to take three or four days at the most.

Kevin Naze's outdoors almanac: Lake Michigan slowly warming
A few chinook salmon and steelhead are being caught from Sheboygan to Sturgeon Bay, but cold water temperatures have delayed the usual June bonanza.
- Jun. 7, 2014
You will be redirected to the page you want to view in seconds.
A few chinook salmon and steelhead are being caught from Sheboygan to Sturgeon Bay, but cold water temperatures have delayed the usual June bonanza.
For the 29th year, Little Lake in Sturgeon Bay will be the site of a 'Take A Kid Fishing Day' event on Father's Day.
Algoma's iconic lighthouse is getting a long-awaited facelift.
The first reports of salmon success north of Sheboygan have been trickling in this week. Its been spotty at best so far, with more lake trout than chinooks off most ports. That said, fishing pressure has been light as most Great Lakes trollers await word that the bite is on.
If you haven't been for a walk in the Door County forests on a calm morning or evening recently, you're missing a lot.
Alewives are in the rivers, harbors and nearshore areas of Lake Michigan for their annual spring spawn, a sure sign that things are about to bust loose on the salmon and trout fishing scene.
Walleyes aren't coming as easy for some and bass are getting a bit finickier after seeing so many baits the past three weeks, but Door County's Green Bay sport fishery still ranks among the best in Wisconsin right now.
The Green Bay and northern Lake Michigan muskie season opens today with a new 54-inch minimum size limit, up from 50 inches. Anglers should be prepared with proper equipment such as large rubber-mesh nets or boatside cradles and long-nose pliers and wire cutters to aid in landing and releasing fish.
The state Natural Resources Board will be in Green Bay next week for the first of several 'take it on the road' monthly meetings.
John Allen of Green Bay and Scott Ourada of Little Suamico have won a lot of tournaments in the past 25 years, but none bigger than their come-from-behind win Saturday.
A father and son team from Northeastern Wisconsin got off to a record-setting start in the 24th annual Sturgeon Bay Open Bass Tournament Friday.
Once known as the Coho Capitol of the Midwest, Algoma has long since switched gears to targeting chinook salmon and rainbow, lake and brown trout.
Smallmouth bass and walleye fishing has been outstanding on Green Bay and its tributaries, providing thrills, meals and in some cases cash for anglers.
Percentage-wise, few professional bass and walleye anglers make money from their favorite outdoor pastime.
Not every angler is a fan of fishing tournaments, but that doesn't reduce their economic impact to an area.
Green Bay's world-class bass and walleye fisheries will get another boost this weekend with a pair of national tournaments headquartered at Sturgeon Bay and Green Bay.
With water temperatures still in the low 40s, its certainly not time to think swimming in Green Bay or Lake Michigan.
Ten hours. One fish. But the right fish.
Green Bay walleye and bass anglers need to keep one eye on the rod and another on fishing regulations starting today, when many season changes kick in.
Saturday's opening day of the general hook-and-line inland game fishing season isn't as big of a deal here as it is away from the Great Lakes.
An 8.45-pound smallmouth bass caught in last spring's Sturgeon Bay Open Bass Tournament certainly expanded the county's fame as a fishing hot spot.
The Bass Angler Sportsmans Society's Bassmaster magazine has named Sturgeon Bay specifically, the Little Sturgeon Bay to Fish Creek stretch of Green Bay as the No. 1 bass 'lake' of 2014.
Wisconsin's revamped chinook salmon stocking formula means Algoma and Kewaunee will equally split the 95,000 or so fish given to the county this year.
Winter weather and state regulations, not a dropping whitefish population, led to some shortages of the popular species this spring.
Walleyes on Green Bay tributaries and rainbow trout in the Lake Michigan rivers and creeks are attracting large numbers of open water anglers hoping to hook a spawn-minded fish.
Many hunters in Wisconsin have been asking for something Michigan has had for decades a separation of private land and public land antlerless deer tags.
Monday night's annual DNR spring fish and game hearings and county Conservation Congress meeting begins at 7 p.m. in the Sturgeon Bay High School Commons.
Whether joining the crowds of anglers on the Fox River below the De Pere Dam or cautiously walking out on the softening ice near shore off southern Door County, the best walleye fishing of the season is here.
It's been a long wait, but it's finally open water trout time throughout the county.
While a few anglers will push the limits of softening ice, it's time for more conservative fishermen to start readying gear for open water.
Kewaunee County's annual spring fish and game hearing and Conservation Congress meeting will have a new twist this year an added deer herd status meeting.
It's been a long wait, but the 10-day forecast is finally showing signs of a consistent warm up at least away from the ice of Green Bay and the chilly waters of Lake Michigan.
Deer hunters and others with an interest in whitetails can take part in the first county-specific survey on deer management here.
Forty-six years ago, when salmon from the West Coast were introduced to the Ahnapee River at Algoma, nobody knew they'd revolutionize the sport fishery.
Boaters finally are getting into the Fox River at Green Bay and De Pere for a shot at one of the Midwest's most-coveted walleye fisheries, but not all launches were ice-free Friday.
For the second straight year it looks like spring fish species will be spawning later than usual.
If the weather forecasters are right, today is the start of a five-day stretch in which the temperature won't climb above freezing.
What could be the deadliest winter for wildlife in decades is finally nearing the end, with spring set to arrive Thursday.
Today's the last day to fish yellow perch before the two-month spring spawning closure kicks in on Green Bay and its tributaries.
It's still winter in Wisconsin, and that means we'll be teased with gorgeous thaws followed by chilling drops in temperature and gusty winds that test even the best windproof outerwear.
Ice anglers hoping to score some of the finest fillets on the planet have just two more weekends before the two-month yellow perch closure begins.
'Fish of the Great Lakes,' a 26.5-inch by 38.5-inch color poster from UW-Sea Grant, features 35 popular species and numerous updates from the original version created in 2000.
New fishing and hunting licenses or 2014-15 are now on sale, and the Department of Natural Resources is offering a one-time deal of $5 licenses for first-time or decade-lapsed hunters and anglers.

A nice catch by the Rambling One, via MLBTR:
ESPN's Jerry Crasnick tweets that Escobar received a positive medical report today, and could either pitch winter league ball or just audition for suitors. Crasnick names the Rays, Mariners, Brewers, and Orioles as potential suitors, in addition to the New York teams.
I hope that means that the Brewers have already expressed interest, and that it's not just Crasnick speculating.
I also hope the Brewers are kicking the tires on Boof Bonser, who I think would be likely to significantly outperform Suppan at a tenth of the cost.

Counting the cost of the high-speed rail link
Homeowner Tony Heald fears the value of his house has been slashed because of the new high speed rail link. The route was announced two weeks ago and for Tony it means a huge tunnel will pass 35 metres under the front door of his family home.
Only those homes which need to be knocked down to make way for the rail link are entitled to compulsory purchase payments, but for Tony it means up to 75 thousand pounds could be wiped off the value of his property. Matt Price reports.

Shitsu dogs are fantastic!
If you have reached our wonderful page about the "shitsu" then you must love these small, personality filled, toy dogs! Spelling may also not be your forte as shitsu is actually a popular misspelling of our furry friends; the correct spelling is actually "Shih Tzu" and our sites name is a play on that! The Shih Tzu is actually an extremely popular dog breed worldwide and in 1999 the Shih Tzu actually ranked as the 10th most popular dog within the united states (according to the American Kennel Club statistics) and it continues to be a popular choice of breed amongst pet and dog lovers to this day. We love these little dogs and we hope that our little website spreads the shih tzu love and hopefully teaches you a thing or two about your dog too!
The History of the Shitsu (Shih Tzu)
The Shih Tzu is actually from Chinese origins and were already being used as house pets during the Ming dynasty! The original breed comes from a combination of the ancient Chinese breed "Pekingese" and the "Lhasa Apso".
Size and Temperament
Shih Tzu's are little dogs! The average weight of a shitsu is only 9 to 16 pounds (4kg – 7.5kg) and stand about 7 to 12inches tall, they are short stubby dogs and without grooming their fur can actually grow to reach the floor! Despite their small stature Shih Tzu's are not afraid to bare their teeth and fight if they feel trapped or in danger, for this reason it is important to supervise them when children are about. Despite this bit of bark Shih Tzu's are generally very friendly and very outgoing! If you give them the time they love to play with human's and enjoy walks and exercise.
Exercise and Grooming
Shih Tzu's are perfect for pet owners who don't have the time (or will) to go for long walks and exercise each day. Shih Tzu's are little energetic dogs but because they have short legs and are quite small they don't require the maintenance of larger breeds and a short walk or play session will be enough to keep them happy.
The long hair of the Shih Tzu is often considered both the best and worst part about ownership! Their long fur is soft and cuddly but it also requires some maintenance. Shitsu's are actually quite vulnerable to ear and eye infections so this means you will need to ensure at the very least these areas are clean and well trimmed so your dog can see and won't become ill!

CHRIS KIRWAN SAYS: Rough diamonds can be turned into real gems
10:00am Thursday 13th September 2012 in Sport
IT'S through necessity that Newport Gwent Dragons have adopted their policy of trying to polish rough diamonds when it comes to recruitment.
The region has always had to be a bit different to their rivals when they enter the transfer market.
They don't go in search of the finished product, instead they look at those with room for improvement or players that aren't fulfilling their potential.
The early signs are promising on that front when it comes to their big three summer arrivals.
Ian Nimmo, previously something of a journeyman, has settled rapidly in the second row, while full-back Dan Evans and wing Tom Prydie, a pair of Wales internationals whose form had dipped significantly, have become the go-to guys in attack.
While it would be foolish to go overboard after just two games in the RaboDirect Pro12, it looks like all three will be canny signings.
And then there is the Dragons' liking for handing opportunities to semi-professional players that have caught the eye.
It's a policy that is backed by a man who has been a binman, hod carrier, floor cleaner and one of the finest goalkeepers to ever don gloves.
When former plumber Hywel Stoddart made his first regional start against Leinster on Saturday it would have got the seal of approval of Neville Southall.
Before his time at Everton that saw him win a raft of medals, honours and most of his 92 Wales caps, Big Nev did his time in the Cheshire League with Winsford United.
That era of his life provides plenty of tales in his excellent new book 'The Binman Chronicles'.
On a publicity tour last week he was happy to chat about the benefits of the Dragons handing chances to the likes of Stoddart, Lloyd Burns, Andrew Coombs and Mike Poole.
"Sometimes the roughening up and mental toughness that you get from outside academy systems is invaluable," he said.
"It's not all given to you, you have to fight for everything and you have to make your mark.
"It's tough out there away from the academies, especially in rugby when you have someone trying to smash and hurt you.
"But that can serve a kid well and there's a lot to be said for roughing 'em up a bit rather than letting them have all the kit, facilities and someone to wipe their backside."
Signing such players certainly adds a humility to the Dragons but sometimes you need a stellar foreign signing to go alongside them.
Injuries have caused the region to look overseas for a player to slot into the back five of their pack.
Earlier this week Glasgow signed South African Josh Strauss, a combative back row player who caught the eye with his physicality with the Lions in the Super 15 as much as his impressive beard.
If the Dragons could lure a player of similar stature to Rodney Parade then it may just help them in their bid to polish those rough diamonds.

I know it has never been a fair comparison in whichever reference in Malaysia made with Australia, but I do feel like I have to say something about the pizzas at Pizza Hut, Malaysia. I have often mentioned how I find Pizza Hut rather unattractive, and of course, not worth the money at all. Pizzas in Malaysia are not cheap, and they certainly are not better than those you would expect from other places.
The weird thing is, some people refuse to believe my statement on how Malaysian Pizzas suck. Especially in East Malaysia, where we do not have other competitors like Domino, Pizza Hut basically dominated the local commercial pizza scene. Now please note that I have nothing against Pizza Hut, I still go there from time to time. What I do want to say is: there are many things that can, and should be improved. The operative phrase being "many things".
There are only so many words that I can use to prove my point, so let the pictures do the speaking themselves.
I need not label which is which, and you will surely be smart enough to discover which one of the couples is from Pizza Hut, Kuching, and the other one, an ordinary pizza from a local eatery in Perth.
Pizza A
Pizza B
Now lets take a closer look on a slice of each pizzas....
Pizza A
ONE small chunk of pineaple, few tiny shreds of chicken, and paper thin layer of cheese spread on top of the rigidly thick bread-crust. How appetizing.
Pizza B
Oooooooooh... count the pepperonis... look at the toppings dropping off everywhere.. and the cheese.. ohh
Now if you are so blatantly blind to not see the difference, you are beyond hope of salvation.
Again, this is an unfair comparison, yes, but still, my point remains, there are plenty to improve on. I am no Pizza expert, but you do not have to be one to tell how bad Pizza Hut is getting. Furthermore, the ever expensive pricing + 5% Gov tax and 10% service charge.... are just plain ridiculous.
And of course, you can always tell if the Pizza is enjoyable.

As far as consistency goes, Jeff Carter is among the best. Yeah, I said it! In season Jeff gets hot and cold, but who doesn't? What Jeff carter brings to the table is a big 6'3" frame, deceiving top-tier speed, ability in the face-off circle, solid defensive presence, and a wicked wrist shot. With the increase in interest there has been an emphases on judging players based on other, more telling, methods such as Goals per 60, PP goals per 60, quality of competition/teammates, shooting %, yada yada yada, I'm going to look at good old fashioned goals. What I want to know doesn't really need advanced stats. I am trying to compare Jeff Carter to the other elite scorers in the NHL today and their consistency. My player pool consists of the top 20 goal scorers in the NHL right now, as well as any top ten guys from last year who dropped out.
I'm having a formatting problem so here's what I got: Player, Average goals per the past three years, average rank among goal scorers for the past three years. This years goals were proportionated to a full season and rookies numbers only included the years they were in the league.
- Ovechkin 46-7
- Stamkos 41-7
- Carter 39-7
- Crosby 39-11
- Marleau 38-10
- Kovalchuk 38-10
- Nash 36-9
- Heatley 35-13
- Semin 35-13
- Parise 35-13 (This year's .25 goals a game through 12 was set over a full season)
- Ryan 34-11
- Iginla 34-11
- D. Sedin 34-12
- E. Stall 34-13
- Perry 34-12
- Kessel 32-15
- Moulson 32-15
- Towes 31-16
- Kesler 30-14
- Sharp 30-15
- Burrows 29-17
- Gaborik 25-17
- Briere 24-18
- Grabner 20-18
- Lucic 20-20
- Grabovski 20-22
Jeff Carter is only one of 5 players to average a top 10 finish in goal over the past three seasons. The others? Some guys named Ovechkin, Stamkos, Marleau, and Nash. Carter and Ovechkin are at an average of 6.7 a season as of right now, with Stamkos trailing at 7.33, Nash at 8.66, and Marleau with 9.66.
Just for the record, Carter makes 5 mil this year and will make 5.25 for the remainder of his career (or atleast untill he's in his middle 30s). Ovechkin? 9.538 million for his career. Marleau? 6.9 mil. Nash? 7.8. These are the top contracts that each player will ever play in their career. Carters is over 1.5 cheaper than Marleau, 2.5 than Nash, and over 4 million cheaper than Ovechkin. As for Stamkos, he makes 3.75 mil this year and will be a restricted free agent next year. His cap hit for next year will almost guarunteed make more than Carter. Whether he will take a 10 year 100 million type deal or a 3 year 25 million is yet to be seen, but eventually he'll be around the 8-9 million range, while Carter will never hit 5.5.
I know we all bash Carter all the time, but the next time he fires high and wide and you crack a Jeffie joke... just remember how VALUE-able he is to our team as a top flight goal scorer as well as everything else he brings to the table. With him and Richie locked up we have 2 top lines for the next ten years. Add on Giroux and we have 3 scoring lines for as long as the three of them are together... all for the price of (5.75 (richie) + 5.25 (carter) + 3.75 (giroux) = 14.75 million dollars. Divide that number by the projected 61.4 million dollar cap hit for next year (Carter and Giroux's contracts in the 14.75 are for next year so I'm keeping consistancy) and you get 24% of the cap hit for 34% of our goal scoring this year.
Go Flyers!

Senators' Prospects at the midway point!
There was a scary scene in tonight's match up between the Binghamton Senators and the Norfolk Admirals when Patrick Wiercioch was struck in the throat by a puck. Wiercioch left the game and, at the time of writing, remains at the hospital. The B-Sens have released a statement saying that he is resting peacefully and being evaluated. The B-Sens have called up defenseman Mike Ratchuk from the ECHL's Elmira Jackets. Best wishes to Wiercioch on a speedy and full recovery.

Patrick Wiercioch has signed with the Ottawa Senators.
According to the Ottawa Citizen, prospects Patrick Wiercioch, Robin Lehner, and Eric Gryba have all signed with the Senators. Wiercioch is expected to join Ottawa, while Lehner and Gryba will report to Binghamton. UPDATE: Sounds like Wiercioch has not actually signed and that the Citizen jumped the gun. He's expected to sign, but it's not a done deal.
