And we're back!

Finally back to posting something after over month's absence. Makes you wonder what I've been doing, eh?

Well it's been nothing to exciting but I have been riding the local crime wave, although things are quiet again but man was the beginning of August a busy time, here's some info in case you aren't sure of what happened:

From the CKDR website:

Sioux Lookout Man Charged With Attempted Murder
Posted by Mike Ebbeling on Tuesday, August 7th, 2007 am 9:49:52 AM

An unidentified man is in Thunder Bay Hospital in stable condition after an incident at a Sioux Lookout residence last Thursday night.OPP were called to a Front Street home around 10:30 to investigate the circumstances surrounding an injured male.

Police have charged 23-year-old Nathaniel Kamenawatamin of Sioux Lookout with attempted murder. He remains in custody.

That one took place right around the corner from my house, but at least this one happened on the other end of town:

Sioux Lookout Man Faces 2 Charges
Posted by Mike Ebbeling on Wednesday, August 8th, 2007 am 8:47:20 AM

A Sioux Lookout man is in custody after OPP located a woman in the bush Sunday morning.
The 21-year-old victim was spotted at the west end of Queen Street in Sioux Lookout.
As a result of an investigation and assistance from the community, police have arrested 23-year-old Charles Raymond Hattie.

Hattie faces counts of attempted murder and aggravated sexual assault.
The woman was transported to hospital for treatment.

That information was again lifted from the CKDR website.

But enough of that, how about something with a little more geek appeal, like a picture of Iron Man from the upcoming movie, and in case you're wondering just how it stacks up to the comic book Iron Man, have no fear because there's a comic book comparison shot there as well and as far as I can tell it's pretty much bang on.

And to keep your Iron Man excitement levels up here's the Iron Man movie footage they showed at the San Diego Comic Con. How awesome does that look? I know I'm eagerly awaiting the May 2008 release of the film.

Since we're on the topic of upcoming films, how about Alien vs Predator: Requiem? Here's the red band (that's cool in the know people talk for R-Rated) trailer for the film and just based on this it looks a whole lot better than the first big bunch of wank that was AVP, which was sadly lacking on the Aliens battling Predators bits that the title of the film might lead one to believe it contains. The movie is coming out on Christmas Day this year, because nothing says Christmas like Aliens fucking up Predators fucking people fucking up Predators fucking up Aliens, right?

Hey at least it makes more sense than a Labour Day release of Rob Zombie's Halloween - which if you're a Halloween or Rob Zombie movie fan you should see. Just looking at the two imdb pages for these films the recreation of this promo shot from the John Carpenter original into this one for the Zombie remake really appeals to me for some reason.

Enough geekery for now, time to movie onto bigger and better things . . . well okay maybe not bigger . . . but it's definitely amusing; even though this isn't late breaking news any more did you know that the Dad from TLC's Little People, Big World, Matt Roloff, was charged with DUI at the end of July?

No?

Well you can read about it here if you really want. Me I'm curious how/if they'll show this in the upcoming season(s) of the show? Will it be addressed or will they simply pretend like it never happened and just never have Matt driving anywhere. Only time will tell.

Time for something a little more current event like, like this:

Greece Fire! Looks like this has gone well past the point of dumping some baking soda on it or putting the lid back on the pot . . . but enough of the humour in bad taste, here's an article that talks about the wildfires raging all over Greece. But the the real reason why I'm sharing that link is they've got a satellite photo showing the huge plumes of smoke rising from various spots in the country and some pretty amazing photos of the fire and its aftermath.

Well that's enough for now, but I will leave with this link to pics of Hayden Panettierre, the cheerleader Claire from NBC's hit series Heroes (mark your calenders season 2 premieres Spetember 24), dressed up like a little German girl for the fan boys out there, and because I was stopped a while ago and told that I wasn't posting enough porn in here. Well it ain't porn but it's a start.

Enjoy
