Review title: Kick Ass Film Debut Product review: Jen and Sylvia Soska kick ass with their feature film debut. Working with a tiny budget but an excess of ingenuity and wicked inspiration, they deliver a fun and twisted ride. It's great to see women who can work in the horror genre without flinching. Raw, uneven, but never dull. Look for their new film American Mary coming out in 2012.

Review title: Essential tension between faith and reason Product review: This is an important and compulsively readable book. I was challenged and exhilirated. This book spoke to me because I long ago left organized religion, but periodically return out of a sense of longing, then leave again in exasperation. This book showed me how I need to change the lens. Through all the explanations of mysticism and science, the recurring theme is that all beyond this life is mystery and always will be. We have to focus on the life we have.While reading this book, I laughed, cried, argued with the author and was constantly challenged. Read this book, I promise it will make you think and will challenge your assumptions whether you are a person of faith or a rationalist.

Review title: One of the greats of the greats. Product review: It's ironic to read critiques of this classic film which cite, in one sentence that the plot is too difficult to follow (Leonard Maltin's nostalgic trivia of even Raymond Chandler losing track of who committed one of the less crucial murders is so often pedantically referenced by those wanting to sound learned in their criticism), and then lambaste the movie for lacking in story. The Big Sleep is a proliferation of plot such as would befit the Baroque to Bogie noir. It is a one of a kind, in combining sophistication in acting, scripting and plotting with brutish 50's noir stylings and then to top off the Bogie Hoagie, a sincere romantic sentimentality. Don't believe the (negative) hype. If you've grown up beyond the 6-minute MTV attention span and have a taste for hard-boiled 50's noir, then it's one you'll want on the shelf.
