al/supernatural-xfiles-producer-k-25926.aspx

BuddyTV  has confirmed from a spokesperson from Supernatural that the show's
director and  executive producer Kim Manners passed away Sunday in Los Angeles
due to  complications from lung cancer.

Supernatural creator Eric Kripke released  a statement saying, "Everyone at
Supernatural is walking around in a daze,  shocked and absolutely devastated.
Kim was a brilliant director; more than that,  he was a mentor and friend. He
was one of the patriarchs of the family, and we  miss him desperately. He gave
so much to Supernatural, and everything we do on  the show, now and forever,
is in memory of him."

Many fans first learned  the news from Supernatural star Jim Beaver's MySpace
and Facebook pages early  Monday morning. On his official MySpace page, it
said “Jim is in mourning for  one of the best friends and best directors he's
ever known - Kim Manners, who  died last night from lung cancer.”

When BuddyTV visited the set of  Supernatural last summer, Jensen Ackles
spoke about how well the cast and crew  get along. Ackles mentioned Kim Manners,
saying that he explain the feeling best  when Manners said “We spend way too
much time with each other not to enjoy each  others' company.”

Manners got his start in television in the late 1970s  as a production
manager and director for Charlies' Angels. He worked steadily as  a TV director
through the ‘80s and ‘90s until joining The X-Files in 1995 as a  producer.
His
work on that show helped earn him four Emmy nominations for  Outstanding Drama
Series.

On Supernatural, Kim Manners has served as an  executive producer since the
beginning and has become one of the most  influential figures behind the scenes
of the show. He directed 17 episodes,  including every season finale, the
season premieres for the last three years,  and his final episode was this
season's "Metamorphosis."

BuddyTV's  deepest sympathies go out to the Manners family and everyone who
works on  Supernatural.

This caught my eye as something Mulder would  read and talk about.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/27279684/

U.S.  pilot was ordered to shoot down UFO


LONDON - An American fighter pilot flying from an English air base at the
height of the Cold War was ordered to open fire on a massive UFO that lit up his
  radar, according to an account published by Britain’s National Archives on
Monday.

The fighter pilot said he was ordered to fire a full salvo of rockets at  the
UFO moving erratically over the North Sea — but that at the last minute the
object picked up enormous speed and disappeared. The account, first published
in  Britain’s Daily Star newspaper more than 17 years ago and to this day
unverified  by military authorities, was one of many carried in the 1,500 pages
the archives  made available online.

The unnamed pilot said he and another airman were scrambled on the night of
May 20, 1957, to intercept an unusual “bogey” on radars at a Royal Air Force
Station Manston, an airfield at the southeastern tip of England about 75
miles  from central London.

“This was a flying object with very unusual flight patterns,” the pilot
said, according to a typed manuscript of his account mailed to Britain’s
Ministry of Defense by a UFO enthusiast in 1988. “In the initial briefing it
was
suggested to us that the bogey actually was motionless for long  intervals.”

Ordered to fly at full throttle in cloudy weather, the pilot said he was
given the order to fire a volley of 24 rockets at the mysterious object.

“To be quite candid I almost [expletive] my pants!” the pilot said, saying
he asked for confirmation — which he received.

Retired U.S. airman Milton Torres told Britain’s Sky News on Monday that he
was the pilot and has spent 50 frustrating years attempting to uncover the
truth  of his aerial encounter.

Speaking from his home in Miami, Torres said he never saw the UFO with his
naked eyes, but watched in awe as it appeared on his jet’s radar and sped off
before he had chance to fire.

“All of a sudden as it was coming in, it decided to take off and leave me
behind ... The next thing I know it was gone,” Torres told Sky News. “It was
some kind of space alien craft. It was so fast, it was so incredible ... it was
  absolutely death-defying.”


Impossible to miss?

In the newly published government file, the U.S. airman said the UFO
appeared impossible to miss.

“The blip was burning a hole in the radar with its incredible intensity,”
the pilot said. “It was similar to a blip I had received from B-52’s and
seemed  to be a magnet of light. ... I had a lock on that had the proportions of
a
flying aircraft carrier.”

As he closed in on the object to prepare for combat, however, the object
began to move wildly before fading off his radar. The target gone, the mission
was called off, and he returned to base to an odd reception.

“I had not the foggiest idea what had actually occurred, nor would anyone
explain anything to me,” the pilot said. He said he was led to a man in
civilian
  clothes, who “advised me that this would be considered highly classified and
  that I should not discuss it with anybody not even my commander.”

“He disappeared without so much as a goodbye and that was that, as far as I
was concerned,” the pilot said, according to the account.


No military record

Britain’s military said it had no record of the incident, according to  the
files. Neither did the U.S. military. The second pilot’s account, also
included in the files, paints a somewhat different picture of events, saying 
there
were not one but several “unknowns” and that he did not remember being
contacted by anyone about staying quiet. He did not mention the targets’ 
size.

“I know this is not a very exciting narrative but it is all I can recall,”
the second pilot said.
His name, like his colleague’s, was redacted from the  files.

David Clarke, a UFO expert who has worked with the National Archives on the
document release, said it was one of the most intriguing stories he had culled
  from the batch of files released Monday.

He said that the CIA once had a program intended to create phantom signals
on radar — and that this may have been an exercise in electronic warfare.
Whatever the case, Clarke argued that “there’s no doubt something very
unusual
happened.”

Clarke said the batch of files released Monday — which include witness
accounts, investigations, and sketches — was part of a three- to four-year 
program
intended to make a total of 160 UFO-related files available to the  public.

So I just watched the movie I have to say the movie makes a great
episode on TV. As a theatrical film, on the other hand, its was
disappointing. As a long time fan I was happy to see the old characters
but there just wasn't enough creepiness. It was a guilty pleasure that
lasted 1.5 hours. The first 30min of the movie was actually hard to
watch for me simply because the "nods to the fans" were so forced (ie.
camera shot of the sunflower seed bowl).

I did enjoy watching M&S interacting with each other as I found myself
imagining what the dialogue would be (how would Mulder respond to
Scully). All in all, I felt the movie was really something only the fans
could enjoy. Newcomers, I fear, wouldn't be able to appreciate TXF from
this movie alone.
