  Black Cloud, The
A living organism, half a billion years old, as big as the orbit of Venus, and as massive as Jupiter, the Black Cloud has a "brain" that consists of complex networks of molecules which can be increased in number and specialization as the creature desires (see intelligence, nature of).
The Cloud goes on to discuss the evolution of intelligence, the difficulty of communicating an appreciation of arts and the quality of emotions between beings of different neurological structure, how it feeds and reproduces, and other aspects of life as a giant nebular organism.
In an echo of the Black Cloud theme, they theorize that primitive life-forms may have come together on the surface of grains of cosmic dust.

 Black Cloud   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
The Black Cloud (Eddie Spears) in question is a tough Native American boxer whose career is jeopardized when he pummels Eddie (Schroder), a rodeo cowboy who once fathered a child with Black Cloud's girlfriend (Julia Jones).
Black Cloud also learns he is of mixed blood - one of his ancestors was White - and this throws him into a tailspin, during which he shouts, "I'm a mixed blood," just in case the word didn't reach the tribal newspaper.
Later, during a match, Black Cloud is knocked down and travels to the spirit world to have a little talk with a dead relative while the referee looks down on him.

 Actor pulls no punches in 'Black Cloud' | www.azstarnet.com ®
"Black Cloud" is a punch-drunk boxing melodrama that can't quite connect as it swings for an inspirational uppercut, but introduces us to a knockout of a lead actor, Eddie Spears.
Black Cloud loves Sammi (Julia Jones), a single mother who bristles at a visit from her callous, bigoted ex, Eddie (Schroder), a rodeo rider who is the father of her son.
Sammi is in line to receive government-funded tribal housing, but Black Cloud jeopardizes her application when a researcher discovers one of his ancestors was white.

 Spaceflight Now | Breaking News | Doughnut-shaped cloud has 'black hole' filling
Astronomers often view fl holes that are aligned face-on or at a slight angle in relation to Earth, thus avoiding the dark, enshrouding torus to study the hot accretion disk.
The scientists observed a fl hole in the spiral galaxy NGC 4388, which is 65 million light years from Earth in the constellation Virgo.
This light, which is able to escape the fl hole because it is still outside of its border, ultimately collides with matter in the torus.

 calendarlive.com: MOVIE REVIEW - 'Black Cloud'
"Black Cloud" is a modest, straightforward but affecting coming-of-age story about a young Navajo with a real talent for boxing but who is also his own worst enemy.
Learning that he is of mixed blood himself sends Black Cloud off on a self-destructive tangent, and he becomes consumed with shame and self-hatred at the realization he could possess even a small degree of white ancestry.
As Black Cloud sees himself plunging toward rock bottom, he has a strong enough survival instinct to turn to his grandfather, who introduces his grandson to the healing powers of ancient Navajo rituals.

A group of astrophysicists studying fl holes have produced more evidence for the theory that massive fl holes are surrounded by a doughnut shaped gas cloud called a torus.
Black holes are extremely dense and have gravity so strong that even light cannot escape from them.
The scientists were able to infer the doughnut shaped structure and distance from the fl hole by virtue of light that was either reflected or completely absorbed.

 Rick Schroder taps cultural resource for 'Black Cloud'   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
"Black Cloud" debuted in October in Arizona and Oklahoma City -- regions with large American Indian populations -- and opened in limited release Friday in Los Angeles, New York, Boston and four other cities.
With its sweeping photography set in John Ford country in Monument Valley, Ariz., "Black Cloud" features a largely American Indian cast, including two personable young actors in lead roles -- Eddie Spears, a Lakota Sioux, as Black Cloud, and Julia Jones, who is part Cherokee, as his girlfriend, Sammi.
Seth Willenson, a Hollywood marketing veteran who is handling the theatrical distribution of "Black Cloud," said the movie is being released on a "territory by territory" basis, much like movies used to released before the era of 3,000-print opening weekends.

Black Cloud is the impressive directorial debut of veteran actor Rick Schroder, who also wrote the drama's insightful script and takes a small part as an unrepentant villain.
Meanwhile, Black Cloud delivers a well-deserved beating to a rodeo circuit creep (Schroder), which gets him into hot water with the law, and the Navajo woman he loves (Julia Jones) puts distance between them until he can figure out his priorities.
As coming-of-age stories go, Black Cloud is persuasive and moving, yet it should be no surprise that Schroder's greatest strength as a filmmaker is drawing very fine performances from his cast.

For Black Cloud's mentor and father figure, Bud (Russell Means), the greatest challenge isn't so much teaching the boy how to fight others, but to stop fighting himself.
Indeed, Black Cloud often doesn't seem to appreciate the best things in his life, particularly the devotion of long-suffering girlfriend Sammi (Julia Jones), a single mother whose previous relationship with a hell-raising rodeo cowboy (Schroder) proves to be a much greater stumbling block for Black Cloud than for her.
Not only is "Black Cloud" anything but mediocre, it's an exciting harbinger of even greater things to come.

 The Black Cloud by Ken Croswell
Stars are hot and bright, yet they can owe their existence to the cold and dark--frigid fl clouds of gas and dust that float through interstellar space.
The cloud has roughly the same mass as the Sun and consists mostly of two transparent gases--molecular hydrogen and atomic helium.
The cloud is as cold as it is dark: the temperature throughout is a mere 10 Kelvin above absolute zero, or -440° Fahrenheit, 40° F. colder than Pluto.

MESA, Ariz.—The movie "Black Cloud" is a story about a Native American boxer fighting everyday situations and trying to find his sanctuary.
It's like telling you that "Black Cloud" was a waste of time and money, which is ludicrous.
My favorite part of the movie was when Black Cloud rejected an overture by an Olympic boxing recruiter, saying he wouldn't join the U.S. team because "I fight for the Navajo Nation." It doesn't get much more beautiful than that statement.

A 7O-car Canadian National train carrying hazardous materials burst into flames after it collided with a semi-trailer at an unprotected level crossing near the hamlet of Firdale, a 130 kilometres west of Winnipeg, late on Thursday afternoon, said Cindy Stevens, a communications officer at the Manitoba Emergency Measures Organization.
