10 Reasons Why Benjamin Sisko Is The Greatest Starfleet Captain
For me, Captain Benjamin Sisko is the best of the best, but against stiff competition it is going to be a hard case to sell. The single father / Emissary to Bajor / Starfleet captain / military strategist had so much going for him across his seven years in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine that I am confident I have a wealth of example to present.
But in the interest of fairness (and because I feel Picard comes a close second), I’m also going to give me thoughts on what the other four Starfleet captains fared in similar situations. Because any fair case needs both sides to the story.
Are you ready to be convinced? Good. Allow me to present 10 Reasons Why Benjamin Sisko is the greatest Starfleet captain…and as usual a warning to anyone who hasn’t seen Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, I would be discussing key episodes to support my argument so if you plan to watch the show, spoilers beware!

5 Reasons Humans Should Never Become Machines
Are humans doomed to a machine-like future of radically-enhanced lifespan and intelligence, but without the intangibles that have made our 200,000 year-old species so unique?
Using technology to stave off Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s or other neurological maladies is easy to justify. But is it inevitable that humans and machines will meld into a Borg-like future?
That is, something akin to the “Trekian” villains who appear to have all the personality of a side-by-side refrigerator.
“I don’t think it’s inevitable, but there are powerful forces pushing us in that direction,” said Nicholas Agar, a philosopher at New Zealand’s Victoria University of Wellington and the author of the books, “Humanity’s End” and the forthcoming “Truly Human Ehancement.”
“Whether we want that future is often presented as a simple picture,” he said. “But we need to practice defensive ethics and think about what could go wrong.”

A Brief History of Godzilla, Our Never-Ending Nuclear Nightmare
And it still rings brutally true today. There's a reason that, after the 2011 meltdown at the Fukushima Daishi reactor, Google searches for 'godzilla' spiked in Asia. The world's most famous kaiju—Japanese for 'strange creature'—remains for many the cultural embodiment of nuclear hubris, and they returned to him perhaps to be reminded of what seemed at the time an unheeded warning. Because that's clearly what Godzilla was: A somber, cautionary tale about nukes.
Let's clarify. I'm talking about Gojira, Ishiro Honda's original 1954 Japanese cut. It screened at the Film Forum this week, where I watched it for the first time. I was expecting a Mystery Science Theater 3000-type setting, with a giddy crowded theater making wise-cracks at the shoddy special effects and bad acting.
Maybe that's because I was only familiar with the version popular here in the states, Godzilla, King of Monsters! (1956). That film features some of the same footage as the original, but Hollywood studios cut large chunks out to make room for a new plot following an American reporter in Tokyo. The result is a goofy, disjointed film that was nonetheless extremely popular—it was Godzilla, after all.
But the original is different. While there were definitely moments where the crowd chuckled at hammy lines and some particularly model-rific special effects, for the most part, the theater was silent. That's because Godzilla is not just groundbreaking as the genre-defining 'giant beast terrorizes city' film; it contains the most successful—and most severe—monster-as-metaphor in cinema history. Everyone already knows that Godzilla was a stand-in for atomic power gone awry, but I had no idea how bluntly or brutally the film hammered the point home.

How do you ask for jobs help in Klingon?
Worf probably never needed the services of the Illinois Department of Employment Security, but if he did he wouldn’t need a translator.
The “Star Trek” character could do almost everything from engineering to communications to security. He probably wouldn’t have much of a problem getting a job in Illinois or anywhere else in a real or fictional universe.
However, if he did need to go to IDES, which helps with unemployment claims, benefits, job searches and more, he could get his questions answered in his native Klingon.
The IDES website has offered a Klingon language translator since May. It was part of a promotion for the movie “Star Trek Into Darkness.”
“The Klingon language translator was free. It drives people to the website and introduces them to our services,” said Greg Rivara, a spokesman for IDES. “It’s smart business to leave it up as long as people are talking about it.”
Rivara said every once in a while a newspaper stumbles across the Klingon translator and decides to write about it. It was our turn.

Tourists' shock as Morag of Loch Morar – Scotland's second most famous monster – makes a comeback after 20 years
SHE has been quiet for more than two decades without even the hint of a recorded sighting…
But now Scotland’s second most famous Loch monster – Morag of Loch Morar – has made a comeback.
Holidaymaker Doug Christie, a recently retired oil industry engineer not given to flights of fancy, said he couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw a solid 20ft black shape in the water.
He and wife Charlotte say they saw the beast three times during a stay at Kisimuil B&B by the loch. Doug, 66, from Brechin, Angus, said: “I could not believe my eyes.
“I am not the type to get excited unduly but this just couldn’t be explained.
“It was a large black shape on the loch that looked just like a bit of a submarine and around the same size.
Charlotte said: “I thought it was a whale. We saw it three times in the space of two days.
“The longest sighting was about 10 minutes before it submerged again.”
The couple were staying for a night at the B&B owned by Barra-born Michael MacNeil, 53, and his 50-year-old nurse wife Catherine, who was brought up on the lochside.

Could this finally be proof that Nessie exists? Amateur photographer snaps 'large black object' moving beneath the waters of Loch Ness
An amateur photographer has captured an eerie photo from the shore of Loch Ness which could encourage those who believe in tales of a monster living beneath the surface of the lake.
The image was taken by David Elder at Fort Augustus, at the south-west end of the 23-mile-long body of water in northern Scotland.
It shows a long bow wave apparently caused by some sort of disturbance on the surface of the loch.
The 50-year-old photography enthusiast insists the only thing that could have caused it is 'a solid black object under the water'.
Mr Elder, from East Kilbride in Lanarkshire, was able to take still photos as well as filming a video of the mysterious scene.
'We were at the pier head at Fort Augustus and I was taking a picture of a swan at the time,' he said.
'Out of the corner of my right eye I caught site of a black area of water about 15ft long which developed into a kind of bow wave.

Canadian Superman Stamps
by Armand Vaquer
The reason Canada has gotten involved is that Superman co-creator Joseph Shuster was born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. His Superman artwork is represented in the stamps.
Other artists' work that are represented include Wayne Boring, Dick Giordano, Neal Adams, Kenneth Rocafort and Jim Lee.
I do have one gripe about these stamps. The work of definitive Silver Age Superman artist, Curt Swan is not represented in this collection. That, to me, is a major omission on the part of the Canadian post office.
At least Swan's work was represented in a stamp in the United States when the U.S. Postal Service issued some DC Comics super-hero stamps in 2006 (left).

"Shoot 'em in the back!" - The Addams Family Trivia
This show and its rival series, The Munsters, both debuted within a week of one another in September 1964. At the end of that year's TV season, The Munsters ranked #18 in the Nielsens, with a rating of 24.7, while this show came in at #23, with a 23.9 rating. At the time, Nielsens indicated what percentage of American TV households tuned in to any given program. By the end of the following year, both series were canceled.
It took Carolyn Jones two hours every day to put on Morticia's make-up. Topping it all off, she wore a wig made of human hair.
Cousin Itt's voice was done by producer Nat Perrin, who recited gibberish into a tape recorder and played it back at a higher speed.
Charles Addams never named his characters, but he had to come up with names for the characters on the TV show (it was one of the few contributions he made to the series). Within a week he decided on all of them - except for Mr. Addams, who almost wound up being called Repelli (for "repellent") instead of Gomez.
Thing, the disembodied hand/arm limb, was usually played by Ted Cassidy. When Lurch had to be on camera at the same time as Thing, however, associate producer Jack Voglin lent his hand. A third actor also played Thing on occasion, but his identity is not known.
Thing was usually a right hand. Ted Cassidy (Lurch) occasionally used his left hand just to see if anybody would notice. Thing also had an arm, which was seen when it reached outside for something while in its box.
The Addamses' version of a cuckoo clock was a wolverine that popped out and growled the hours of the day.
Gomez's favorite food was eye of newt.
The doorbell sound was a foghorn.
Wednesday Addams' name is a reference to the nursery rhyme that says, "Wednesday's child is full of woe."
Gomez and Morticia Addams were the first married couple on American TV implied to have a sex life.

'Alien' gargoyle on ancient abbey
A gargoyle on an historic 13th century abbey has caused a social media sensation with its resemblance to the monster from the Alien films. Reverend Alan Birss, minister at Paisley Abbey, said most of the gargoyles were replaced during a refurbishment in the early 1990s. He thinks that one of the stonemasons must have been having a bit of fun.

Gargoyles are decorative devices designed to take rainwater away from the building without the use of downpipes, the water is directed away ensuring that it doesn’t run down the walls, causing dampness. I use the word “decorative” very loosely here because there are thousands if not millions of designs, from ordinary human ones to mythical creatures such as griffins & dragons and as you can see from the photograph below also a Gargoyle sculpted by a German Stonemason in the early 80′s which is the exactly like the Alien from the aforementioned film.

Star Wars: Episode VII To Shoot On 35mm
Jostling with Batman for our attention this morning is some very big news from the Star Wars-verse. J. J. Abrams' cinematographer of choice, Dan Mindel, has signed up to shoot Star Wars Episode VII. And Mindel confirmed at an Asc breakfast in Los Angeles that it will be filmed entirely in anamorphic 35mm.This marks a big step away from the high-def veneer of George Lucas's last two digitally-shot prequels, and a thrilling return to the scruffier, earthier look of the originals. Abrams is clearly looking to recapture the look and feel of A New Hope, a vinyl aesthetic in an MP3 age. It's a prospect that should have Star Wars fans nerding out. There was a clue or two earlier this year when Abrams told the Producers Guild conference that, "If film were to go away then the standard for the highest, best quality would go away.

Star Trek: 7 Reasons Families On A Starship Are A Bad Idea
To seek out new life, when digitally inscribed by Star Fleet Command, presumably implied that the new life would be found outside the ship, not popping left, right and centre inside the ship. There is a comments box if you dare to disagree.
The following arguments are based on the logic of families on starships, please do not mistake flippancy for misogyny… this is my first article and I’d like to make it to a second!
7. Does No-one Remember The Titanic?
Shall I compare these ships? Let me count the ways. A landmark voyage, on a state of the art vessel with a course set for a distant destination it would never reach, carrying families, men women and children. Hmm… familiar.
Let’s not quibble on StarFleet contingency plans for escape pods, but we all know the kerfuffle that would be caused when the call for “women and children first” is announced after something disastrous occurs with accompanying red lights and juddery cinematography. Let’s be honest, it happened every episode.
Imagine Kirk at this point is elbowing his way to the pods, while Spock and Tuvok are holding back, admiring the logic of the protocol. It would be carnage. Women and children dragged out of bed every other day because the hull has been breached… again.
Spare a thought for the indeterminate-gendered characters. What do sentient humanoids such as The Doctor (Robert Picardo), Data or Seven of Nine do? OK, I think the costume department stress the ex-Borg’s assets, but she is part machine. There wouldn’t be much time for any full debate on advanced gender roles. The crisis red-lighting is probably not the best environment for one anyway.

The Ten Best Giant Ape Movies
Though he may have been but an animated model given life through primitive special effects, King Kong, with his doomed loved for the beautiful blonde, has become one of the most beloved of all movie characters, revived in remakes, sequels and knock-offs. But Kong wasn’t the only massive simian to grace the silver screen. Here’s a look at the ten best giant ape movies.
HONORABLE MENTION: A*P*E
The ad campaign for the 1976 Korean film A*P*E warned “Not to be confused with KING KONG”. A captive giant ape, after escapes from a freighter and sets his destructive sights on Seoul, Korea where he falls for an American actress (Joanna Kerns ) filming a movie there. A*P*E was originally filmed in 3-D so there are countless shots of a man in a moth-eaten ape suit throwing Styrofoam boulders at the camera. He also engages in a pitiful skirmish with an obviously dead shark, flips to the bird to his attackers, and in one scene, sports high-top tennis shoes. The same stock destruction footage is repeated in A*P*E, one of the most dismal, if unintentionally funny monster movies of all.
10. KING KONG LIVES
Dino De Laurentiis waited ten years to produce a sequel to his poorly received but modestly successful King Kong remake and brought back director John Guillermin to helm King Kong Lives in 1986. The Jarvik Heart, a medical device making headlines at the time, became the springboard for the story which took place just after Kong’s fall from the World trade Center. He needs a blood transfusion to prevent his body from rejecting his mechanical ticker so a busty Lady Kong is transported from Skull Island to donate. The big guy falls hard for her and the hairy pair bound off into the mountains to make a Kong baby a team of hunters on their tail. The unbelievably goofy premise is played absolutely straight in King Kong Lives. Highlights include an absurd heart-transplant scene (by a team of doctors lead by Linda Hamilton) featuring surgical tools the size of trucks, and a battle with a pair of floppy rubber alligators. This sequel nobody asked for to the remake nobody liked was less offensive, faster-paced, and more fun than its predecessor.

Godzilla 2014 VFX: WETA, MPC, Double Negative, CafeFX, Amalgamated Dynamics Inc., The Third Floor
Godzilla 2014. Who’s responsible for special effects production as this movie, the hoped-for American improvement to that disaster of a so-called Godzilla movie of 1998, speeds toward a Summer 2014 release? Well, after some digging by this blogger, the Godzilla 2014 special effects team consists of: WETA, MPC, Double Negative, CafeFX, Amalgamated Dynamics Inc., and The Third Floor.
WETA was involved early, and was responsible for the overall design of the Godzilla creature up to 2012, and before giving way to MPC, or Moving-Picture Company, later that year. (UPDATE: Now for those of you asking why WETA gave way to MPC, I do not know the answer to that question, and I’m reluctant to speculate without some kernal of information.)
The question is, will WETA’s early involvement give way to an eventual listing in the movie’s credits? As of this writing, there’s no mention of WETA in the official Godzilla credits for Godzilla 2014 on the IMDB Database, either in WETA’s profile, or for the Godzilla movie itself.
For Godzilla, MPC’s Guillaume Rocheron is serving as VFX Supervisor, according to the MPC website, which has a special page on Godzilla. Mr. Rocheron served in a similar role for Legendary Pictures’ Man Of Steel. MPC’s overall roll is as coordinator for the efforts of the other vfx houses.
The company was also working on a trailer for Godzilla, as far back as December 2012, and while reports to this blogger were that it was to be released for the Super Bowl, it has not been shown because of legal issues with the family of the late J. Robert Oppenheimer, who’s quote “I am become death..” was to be employed to what was rumored to be “frightening effect” in the trailer and was seen to a smaller degree at Comic Con 2012, but the legal squabble has put that on hold, for now.

The Monsters Are Back Together!
Just in time for Halloween, General Mills Big G Monsters Cereals are returning to store shelves for a limited time — and cereal fans are already poised and ready to stock up.
While Count Chocula®, Franken Berry® and Boo Berry® appear regularly around Halloween, their old friends Frute Brute™ and Yummy Mummy™ will join them this year for a monstrously delicious reunion.
All five Monsters Cereals will be available at select retailers starting in late August with full nationwide distribution in early September — but only while supplies last. And, through an exclusive agreement, the cereals will be available in retro packaging at Target.
Monsters Cereals have gained a faithful following over the years. Fans eagerly look forward to the seasonal release; collect monsters-inspired clothing, dolls and artwork; and dress as the characters for Halloween.
"Boomers and gen-Xers grew up with the Monsters Cereals," says Ari Zainuddin, marketing manager with General Mills. "Saturday morning meant cartoons and a bowl of Count Chocula or Franken Berry. They want to share those memories with their kids and this seasonal favorite brings back all kinds of fond family nostalgia."
More than just a tasty treat, the monsters have become iconic Halloween figures, each with their own story and personality.
Considered by some to be the most popular of the monsters, Count Chocula is a vampire who prefers chocolate to blood and is well recognized for his tagline, "I vant to eat your cereal!" First introduced in 1971, Count Chocula cereal combines chocolaty cereal made with whole grain corn and colorful marshmallow shapes.
Franken Berry is a cuddly, pink version of Frankenstein's monster, introduced shortly after Count Chocula. This ghoul still wears the same chain-link suspenders he did when he was first created in 1971. Franken Berry cereal combines delicious strawberry-flavored cereal made with whole grain corn and colorful marshmallow shapes.
Boo Berry was first introduced in 1973 as a blue ghost with a purple tie and hat. The cereal has monstrous blueberry flavor from combining blueberry-flavored frosted cereal made with whole grain corn and colorful marshmallow shapes.
A rambunctious werewolf wearing striped overalls, Frute Brute joined the gang in 1974 and was discontinued in 1982. Frute Brute cereal, made with whole grain corn, combines fruit-flavored cereal with lime-flavored marshmallows.
The fifth monster arrived in 1987. The cheerful Yummy Mummy is wrapped in rainbow colors. Yummy Mummy cereal, made with whole grain corn, combines fruit-flavored cereal with vanilla-flavored marshmallows. It was discontinued in 1990.

Resurrecting H. P. Lovecraft on the Big and Small Screen
Before Stephen King (and after Edgar Allan Poe), the master of American literary horror was H. P. Lovecraft. Born a decade before the turn of the century in Providence, Rhode Island, Lovecraft grew up a sickly kid who never left his house and read all the time. Adding to his circumstances, both of his parents died in insane asylums.
Though Lovecraft was reportedly a prodigy – a poet by the age of six – he didn’t really get into writing full tilt until his mid-twenties, through the then burgeoning amateur press association scene of the early twentieth century. This would lead to a massive collection of correspondence with other amateur writers across the country, some of whom went on to become big names in genre fiction (including Pyscho author Robert Bloch and Conan the Barbarian creator Robert E. Howard). Lovecraft eventually parlayed this into a professional writing career (though financial success forever eluded him), selling short stories to fantasy and horror pulp magazines like Weird Tales, and even doing some ghost-writing work, most famously for legendary magician Harry Houdini. Upon his death in 1937, Lovecraft remained obscure and unknown, but in the decades since he’s become a cornerstone of the fantasy/horror genre with a colossal and fervent fan base, alongside writers like King and Neil Gaiman, who often cite him as a major influence on their work.
For the most part, Hollywood has benefited more from the influence and themes of Lovecraft’s writing than the actual stories themselves. The writer’s most famous premise of a larger hidden cosmology that humanity is unable to fully comprehend has become so prevalent in the sci-fi and horror film genre that it borders on cliché. And thanks to Lovecraft’s meticulous self-referencing and off-handed callbacks in stories to previous works, his bibliography consists of a constant and underlying mythology known as the Cthulhu Mythos. Arguably, the author’s most prominent legacy is probably the adjective “Lovecraftian,” which (like fellow literary descriptors “Dickensian” and “Kafkaesque”) refers to a story featuring similar themes to the writer’s work.
Still, there exists a wide canon of Lovecraft tales turned into films and television. Here’s a look at the most noteworthy instances in which his writing has been adapted for the screen.

THE LATEST ‘ULTRAMAN’ MANGA TAKES AN ARMORED APPROACH
If you had to compare Tsuburaya’s Ultraman to a Western superhero concept, the closest comparison would probably be… Captain Marvel or a much friendlier version of Alan Moore’s Marvelman? Every incarnation of the longrunning Japanese tokusatsu and anime empire is different, but more often than not, the hero is the result of a nobel member of a kind of cosmic pantheon merging with a human host (or taking on a human form) to defend planet Earth from invading kaiju from space. In Japan’s Monthly Hero’s Magazine, however, manga creators Eiichi Shimizu and Tomohiro Shimoguchi present a normal human donning a special high tech suit to protect the planet as Ultraman.
As seen in a new motion comic video promoting the series’ third collected volume, ordinary teen Shinjiro Hayata dons a high tech “Ultra Suit” created by his father Shin Hayata — the original human host for Ultraman — to covertly combat threats as part of a secret organization. In this continuity, it’s been around 40 years since the original Ultraman left Earth. When new monsters attack, it’s up to Shinjioro to face the new foes as he’s the only one with a bloodline that’s compatible with the armored suit, which channels energies unique to Ultraman and other beings from the Land of Light. And don’t worry, the suit of armor isn’t like Iron Man’s where it’s just a normal dude inside some metal shooting repulsor blasts. This suit sees Shinjiro do all the usual Ultra stuff, like growing to a height of several stories and blasting evil with the hero’s signature Ultra Beam/Specium Ray.

UFOs Spotted Over India-China Border
Indian Army troops have sighted mysterious unidentified flying objects (UFOs) in the Ladakh sector along the Line of Actual Control with China.
On August 4, the UFO was sighted by Army troops in Lagan Khel area in Demchok in Ladakh area in the evening and a report has been sent to the Army headquarters by the local formation, sources said here.
There have been over 100 sightings of UFOs along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in the last several months but this sighting has come after some time-gap, they said.
Asked about the UFO sightings by the Army troops in Ladakh sector, Defence Minister A K Antony had told Parliament that there is no conclusive proof of sighting of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) over the Sino-Indian border.
The UFO sighting on August 4 comes after reports suggested that a top-level science research institute had found that the UFOs were actually planets Jupiter and Venus, which are clearly visible from the high altitude and thin atmosphere terrain of Ladakh.
The reports said that the research institute had found out that the Army troops deployed in the area had mistaken the two planets as UFOs.

Star Wars: Vader no fan of prequels
Star of The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi says the original films had 'more believable' stories
The British actor who played the original Darth Vader in Star Wars has dismissed the more recent prequel trilogy as a series of "really bad movies".
Dave Prowse, who portrayed the deadly Sith Lord onscreen for Star Wars (1977), The Empire Strikes Back (1980) and Return of the Jedi (1983), said he was unimpressed by creator George Lucas's oft-maligned attempts to tell the story of how Jedi Anakin Skywalker was turned to the dark side.
Prowse, whose voice was dubbed over with that of James Earl Jones in post-production, told the Hull Daily Mail: "I didn't like Star Wars I, II and III at all. I think the common opinion now is they were really bad movies." He added: "There's no comparison with the original movies. They had a much more believable story.

'Fantastic Four' reboot to exist in same universe as 'X-Men' movies
Mark Millar has revealed that the new Fantastic Four movie will exist in the same cinematic universe as the X-Men series.
The Kick-Ass creator and 20th Century Fox creative consultant claimed that the studio is planning to put characters from both franchises together on screen.
"Without question I think you have to see some of these guys showing up in each other's movies," Millar told SFX.
"I think the most exciting thing in superhero movies, until The Avengers came along, was when Nick Fury showed up in Iron Man. Even though it was a guy with an eye patch it was really cool - and I expect we will see more of that."
Millar described Fox's previous Fantastic Four movies as "not very good", but confessed that he has a sentimental attachment to them because his daughter is a fan.
"For the new one, all they have to do is make it great...

Monster-film maker tackles other big menace
Norman England is the world’s leading non-Japanese expert on all things Godzilla, if hours logged on the set are any measure. From 1999 to 2004, he spent, by his own estimate, 150 days at Toho Studios watching the king of kaiju (monsters) come to life in film after film, culminating with Ryuhei Kitamura’s “Godzilla: Final Wars” (2004).
A former New Yorker who moved to Japan in 1993, England was then the Japan correspondent for Fangoria, a U.S. magazine devoted to horror, splatter and exploitation movies, but his going far beyond the call of journalistic duty by spending so much time on the set spoke of a larger obsession — and ambition.
Besides writing for other publications, including a monthly column for the Eiga Hiho film magazine, England has since expanded his resume to include set photographer, subtitler, actor and filmmaker. His new short feature, the erotic shocker “New Neighbor,” has been selected for festivals in Hamburg and Montreal, and will screen at the Uplink theater in Shibuya from Oct. 5-11.
When I met him, however, England was back in his photographer’s guise on the set of “How to ‘Undead’ Sex,” a segment of the straight-to-DVD omnibus project “Zombie TV!!” As director Yoshihiro Nishimura and his action coordinator filmed three male zombies tussling in a pro-wrestling ring, England moved about nimbly snapping shots, taking care not to get in the way of the tumbling and grunting actors. “If you get three seconds, you’re lucky,” he told me, his forehead beaded with sweat. “You’ve got to get in and out.”

‘STAR WARS: EPISODE 7′ WILL FEATURE THE RETURN OF OBI-WAN KENOBI
According to Latino Review, Ewan McGregor’s beloved Jedi master will play a role in the highly anticipated film despite the fact that he was struck down by Darth Vader all the way back in the original ‘Star Wars.’ Of course, he was played by the legendary Alec Guinness back then, and the character managed to appear in both ‘The Empire Strikes Back’ and ‘Return of the Jedi’ as a Force ghost, guiding Luke Skywalker from beyond the grave. We can safely assume that this will be the case in ‘Episode 7′ with McGregor as well, making this the most Force ghost-heavy film in the series so far.

Spock 'n' Roll: Local Star Trek Band
Five guys in Star Trek uniforms are hardly a surprising sight at Gen Con, which will bring more than 40,000 gamers and geeks downtown this month. But the Trekkies from Five Year Mission, an Indy-based band that will play the convention on August 17, are boldly going where no nerds have gone before: writing a song about each episode of the original, 1960s Star Trek series. That’s 80 episodes in all, which the band is dividing into five 16-track albums, including the already-released Year One and Year Two, plus an EP with seven tunes about the classic episode “The Trouble with Tribbles.” (Fans voted to determine which Tribbles track will appear on Year Three, scheduled to drop in November.)

10 Sci-fi films you must see before you die
Science-fiction films are somewhat out of fashion as of late, but with Gravity looking a serious Oscar contender, the much-maligned genre may be seeing a comeback.
Here are just ten Sci-Fi films you need to see before you head on out of this world...
10. Moon (2009)
Here at entertainment.ie, we think Sam Rockwell is just the bee's knees. If you've never seen Galaxy Quest or this year's Seven Psychopaths, stop what you're doing and go watch them. Not only is he a great comedic actor, however, he's done some serious roles. This little gem is directed by none other than David Bowie's son, Duncan Jones. It was made for a pittance compared to most sci-fi films nowadays - €5 million - and it's become a cult hit.

Top 5 (Well, 6) UFO Sightings in History
The truth is out there. It’s just… you’d think with all the cellphone cameras out there someone would have figured it out by now. But despite some of the more bizarre life forms stalking the New York subways, no definitive proof of extraterrestrial life exists.
Few people would think that we’re alone in the universe anymore. At the beginning of the 20th century, humanity was shocked to learn the Milky Way wasn’t the only galaxy in the universe. Today we know at minimum there are 100 billion galaxies in the universe. It’s hard to wrap our primitive primate brains around that one. But whether or not life is out there isn’t the question. It’s whether or not any them have been probing our humble little abode.
If you look at the stories of alien encounters and UFO sightings, striking similarities begin to emerge. Why is it that even in remote parts of the world, isolated from popular media, the story of little grey men with the big heads and cold large eyes always turn up? That’s why we’re counting off the top five UFO sightings.*
*UFO are real. UFO stands for unidentified flying object. Technically, if you see something flying in the sky, and can’t figure out what it is, it’s an unidentified flying object. The real question shouldn’t be whether UFOs are real, but if alien spaceships are real. Just a pet peeve of mine.
5. The Lubbock Lights
In Lubbock, Texas on Aug. 25, 1951, reports came in of a V formation of mysterious luminous lights darting across the night sky. (Public Domain)
Over the skies of Lubbock, Texas on August 25 1951, reports came in from a couple of crackpots that a V formation of mysterious luminous lights darted across the night sky. Oh wait, they were three professors from Texas Technological College. About 20-30 lights described as bright as stars, but far larger crossed the night sky in a matter of seconds. Then another V formation followed.
But the professors weren’t the only ones. Witness around Lubbock also reported seeing the mysterious orbs. Then on August 30, local Texas Tech freshman Carl Hart, Jr. took a photo. The same professors also witnessed a fly-over on September 5 and were able to calculate they were travelling at least 600 miles per hour.
The official Air Force explanation: they were birds! 600 mph birds…
Apparently a type of migratory bird called plovers flew over the city and the newly installed street lamps reflected light off their bellies and that’s what everyone saw. There’s no explanation for why this phenomenon doesn’t happen more often considering how many cities around the world have birds and street lamps.

'Jurassic Park 4' director Colin Trevorrow: 'New dinosaur is badass'
Filmmaker Trevorrow teased the forthcoming sequel during a recent Jurassic Park podcast.
Speaking with Jp Forever, Trevorrow was careful not to reveal too much about the upcoming 2015 release when asked what his favourite dinosaur was.
"We have a new one that's pretty cool. I'm not going to tell you anything about it, but… it's pretty badass," he said.
"I think Jack Horner said something about that too… I feel like, obviously, everyone's favourite is the T-Rex and there's just something so iconic about that animal."
Trevorrow also addressed rumours that the fourth instalment will feature trained versions of the enormous animals.
"I saw some of the rumours on the internet and I would have all kinds of red flags going off if I heard they were going to muzzle a T-Rex ...

Last day. Capricorn 15's. Year of the city - 2274. Carousel begins.
In light of Kevin Levine, creator of ‘Bioshock’, writing the script to the much talked about ‘Logan’s Run’ remake, I thought this would be a perfect time to talk about the original movie for Throwback Thursday, ScienceFiction.com’s ongoing column dedicated to the great sci-fi of the past.
I’ll never forget the first time I saw ‘Logan’s Run’, though sadly it was because I didn’t want to see it. After all, who wants to see an old sci-fi from 1976 when we have the special effects of ‘Avatar‘?
The answer I had was unequivocally “not me!”. Of course, I was wrong. So wrong that even now I’m a little embarrassed that I was so against seeing it. When I say that ‘Logan’s Run’ is really, and truly great sci-fi, I want you to believe me when I say it.
Based off a fantastic and fast-paced book of the same name, ‘Logan’s Run’ takes place in a society where people only live until the age of 30. The society is sorted by colors that indicate how close you are to your death, and everyone has a stone implanted in their hand called a “Life Clock”. When your hand starts to blink red, it means it’s your last day and you go to the Carousel to be “renewed”, which is supposed to reincarnate you, though really this idea was more of an opiate for the masses than the actual truth.

Fire Maidens of Outer Space (Blu-ray)
The Quatermass Xperiment (1955) and its even better sequel, Quatermass II (1957) are among the best sci-fi movies ever made. Though low-budget British productions, both films have extremely intelligent scripts (adapted from Nigel Kneale's television serials) and are still effective, even scary, when seen today.
But those movies were exceptions to the rule. Fifties sci-fi movies emanating from Britain were fairly rare to began with, and those that were made tend to be either dull (Spaceways, Satellite in the Sky) or uniquely bizarre (Devil-Girl from Mars). Fire Maidens of Outer Space (1956) is an anomaly among anomalies. Written, produced, and directed by Chicago-born Cy Roth and starring Nebraska native Anthony Dexter, the film deliberately (and pretty accurately) emulates the worst Hollywood-made low-budget sci-fi movies. Specifically, Fire Maidens of Outer Space is basically a British rehash of Cat-Women of the Moon (1953), the admittedly hilarious, naïve turkey starring Sonny Tufts and Marie Windsor. Alas, Fire Maidens of Outer Space isn't as memorably awful as that wondrous film. Though opening scenes are clearly set in England, there's a vague attempt to make the film appear American, and American accents dominate.
However, until now Fire Maidens of Outer Space was one of the most difficult ‘50s sci-fi movies to see. I remember it turning up once or twice on the Sci-Fi channel more than 20 years ago but no where else before or since, and this is its first official home video release. The movie may be among the worst-ever professionally produced science fiction films, but I'm genuinely grateful to Olive Films for making it available, and in glorious high-def to boot.

The Blob: a cut above the rest
The 1950s saw a sudden popularity surge in science-fiction movies, particularly the ones about aliens. Memorable classics like The Thing (1951), Creature From The Black Lagoon (1954), Invasion Of The Body Snatchers (1956) and The Incredible Shrinking Man (1957) only begin to skim the surface of the genre’s considerable sum of titles.
As for The Blob (1958), recently out on Blu-ray, it stands in a science-fiction class of its own. Over the decades, The Blob has steadily increased in cult favourite status among audiences.
The plot starts out with two teenagers (Steve McQueen and Aneta Corsaut) on a date in a small Pennsylvania town. They get startled when they see what looks like a shooting star slamming into earth. Soon it’s discovered that a meteorite (carrying the blob) made landfall. Without warning, the unstoppable and on-the-move monster, a shapeless, gooey mass of matter that grows at an alarming pace, creates havoc and terror on the town as it devours people.

Whilst at Dublin Comic-con over the weekend I was fortunate enough to talk to Brian Muir, the man who designed and sculpted Darth Vader’s iconic helmet based on Ralph McQuarrie’s famous illustrations. Here’s what he had to say regarding Episode VII and more:
What do you think of STAR WARS EPISODE 7?
Well as far as I know they’re going back to the original three films and trying to get the same feeling as that. It’s very early stages at the moment, but the design team are already working away at the studios.
And do you want Darth Vader to return?
I’d love to see Darth Vader come back but seeing that they killed him off I don’t see how, but it’s possible.

UFO approaches International Space Station
Scott Waring who edits UFO Sightings Daily has made the following discovery that he announced on 12 August 2013. He had been affiliated with the military while he was in the States. He now lives in Taiwan.
I have now uncovered photos as of 12 August 2013 that were taken during the STS-122 mission back in February of 2008. This is an alien orb and similar orbs have been seen around the shuttle Atlantis before and broadcasted on live CNN around the world a few years ago. Notice the mist around this orb. If this was the moon it would be in total focus like the Earth, but you need to click on the large photo to see this fact.
On Sept 20, 2006 the world had a treat...CNN announced live that the Shuttle Atlantis would be delayed for its landing due to a UFO following it...Unidentified Flying Object, which does not necessarily mean alien object. When CNN showed the live feed from the shuttle... the world saw not one, but 5-7 grey metallic orbs floating around behind and around the shuttle. I will put the video below for those who have never seen it before.
