“I think that Dark Prophecy is really the book of tomorrow that’s available today,” says Anthony E. Zuiker. The creator of the incredibly successful CSI TV franchise, has just launched an iPad app for the second installment of his Level 26 fiction series. It follows the adventures of a detective, Steve Dark, who, with a similarly tortured soul, can get into the minds of the worst of the worst killers – those worthy of Level 26 status.

Like the psychopaths Dark hunts, who are no ordinary killers, the Level 26 books are no ordinary thrillers. Dubbed “digi-novels” by Zuiker, the multi-platform murder mysteries combine traditional text with web-based movie “cyber-bridges” and community elements.

However, with the launch of the Dark Prophecy iPad App, Zuiker has kicked his digi-novel concept up to the next level (if you’ll pardon the pun). “Whereas last time we talked it was read the book and watch these 20 individual bridges, now we have 3 levels of engagement,” explains Zuiker. “The traditional Kindle-like version, the digi-novel, which is the book and the movie, and the ultimate digi-novel which is the book, movie, effects, and activities, such as collecting evidence, and unlocking new storylines.”

Let us answer life’s questions – because great advice is even better when it comes from SuicideGirls.


[Sharyn in NYC]

Q: Here’s my problem. Hoping for some advice. I’m 28, been out on my own for a while, and never had much problem talking to women in college, or high school. But now I find myself losing my confidence and having trouble speaking to women in general. It’s only started over the last few years.

I can carry on a conversation for a little while, and then I feel like I panic or have an anxiety attack and have to cut and run. Not sure why this is happening, or what could be causing it, but I’d like to see if anyone has any insight before I decide I need to see a therapist or get some anti-anxiety meds.

Omni Consumer Products is helping to ensure that the city of Detroit will always have a Robocop to watch over them. In lieu of an active cyborg patrolman, they are settling for erecting a statue of Robocop in Detroit. Omni Consumer Products is a real company, which takes its name from a company of the same name featured in the Robocop franchise. When Pete Hottelet, owner of OCP, discovered there was a fund-raising effort in the works to build the statue in Detroit, he matched the $25,000 already raised, bringing the grand total of funds to in excess of $50,000.

“I’m in an interracial marriage, which was illegal not that long ago.”
-Chris Gorham

At this year’s Sundance Film Festival, there were two films in which a religious fundamentalist threatened the lives of gay or gay sympathetic characters. Kevin Smith’s Red State got the most attention with a full on religious protest out side the screening. However, The Ledge also explored a similar idea.

In The Ledge, Gavin (Charlie Hunnam) crosses paths with his neighbor Joe (Patrick Wilson), a Christian who vocally fights against a gay lifestyle. Gavin is an atheist and lives with a gay roommate, so he gets in Joe’s face. Joe ends up forcing Gavin to climb onto a ledge and jump, providing the tension in writer/director Matthew Chapman’s film.
