    BLAST! (2008 film)

    BLAST! is a feature-length documentary by Paul Devlin. The film follows a team of astrophysicists who launch a telescope, upon a high altitude balloon from northern Sweden and again from Antarctica. The film follows the crew of scientists as they travel on a search to answer humankind's most basic question, how did we get here? An approach rarely seen in science programming, BLAST! de-emphasizes talking-head interviews and dispenses with anonymous narration in favor of capturing the action as it happens. Through dynamic storytelling, BLAST! reveals the human side of scientific pursuit, the personal sacrifices of scientists and the philosophical perspectives of discovering the origins of the universe.

    History

    BLAST! premiered at Hot Docs on Tuesday, April 22, 2008. It is now playing at film festivals around the world. Festival screenings include:

  • Sheffield Doc/Fest 2008
  • Guangzhou International Documentary Film Festival
  • Whistler Film Festival
  • Documenta Film Festival
  • Corona Cork Film Festival

  • Whatever We Wanna

    Whatever We Wanna is the eighth studio album by LeAnn Rimes, released June 6, 2006. The album is similar to her R&B influenced Twisted Angel but has a more rock-oriented sound. The album was released and promoted exclusively in Europe, Taiwan, and Brazil. It was originally slated to be released in the U.S. (and even appeared in the US iTunes store briefly), however, the release was pulled due to the success of her single (from This Woman), "Something's Gotta Give" (which peaked at #2 on Billboards Top Country Songs), leading to an increase in sales of This Woman.

    Singles

    Three singles were released from the album. "And It Feels Like" was released as the lead single from the album on May 5, 2006. The second single, "Strong", was released in Germany on June 23, 2006. The third and final single from the album was Rimes' duet with Brian McFadden, "Everybody's Someone", which was released on September 25, 2006.
