This is a terrible movie. I have really no other way to start this off, other than that. Edge of Darkness is a very, very boring movie that only breaks up the boredom to either offend you or disgust you, or both. The basic premise is that Mel Gibson’s daughter comes home for a vague reunion and will not disclose much about her current life. Obviously hiding something, she is killed less than ten minutes into the film, and it is all downhill from there.

When I first saw the blue alien creatures interacting in this film, I thought it was pretty silly.

But I knew James Cameron (director of Terminator, Aliens, Terminator 2, True Lies and Titanic) wouldn’t just serve up any crap, so I kept my mind open and sure enough, the film had completely engrossed me in its fantastic landscapes and captivating characters.

Jason Reitman’s Up in the Air is not just a good film, not just one of the very best of the last few years, but another stake to Reitman’s claim to becoming one of the best directors in the film world. After enjoying his previous film Thank You for Smoking, which is one of my favorite movies, I was incredibly excited to see this one. It delivered with the force of an eighteen-wheel truck.

Alternative rock band Wilco has a great new album, and out of their seven studio albums, this one is the best for new listeners.

Flagler College’s 871-word attendance policy basically boils down to: “Don’t miss class, ever. If you do, we will fail you.”

PHOTO CAPTION: A homeless camp on the outskirts of St. Augustine has living quarters, a food tent and an outhouse. While this is one of the more elaborate camps, members of People United to Stop Homelessness say most homeless people’s living conditions are minimal.

As I walked through the woods behind the grocery store towards the campfire light, I was met by a man who asked, “What’s with the camera?”

It’s 6:16 on a Monday night and Chuck Riffenburg is talking on his cell phone on the front steps of the Proctor Library again.

Unlike other students, though, Riffenburg is talking business. Even though he finally got the Flagler College administration to approve his Hunger Initiative project, he still has to do all the legwork.
