Like The Terminator, the action scenes combine a mix of high-tech special effects with good-old rough 'em up fighting. But this time, it's good to see all the mechanized firepower working on the side of justice instead of against it.

Those who like it hot should be more than satisfied with the incendiary Cajun-style blend of black and cayenne peppers, herbs and spices in Blackened Spice Marinade, from Taylor Maid in Jackson, Miss. The powdered mix works its fiery magic on burgers, grilled chicken and shrimp. And if that is not hot enough, munch on crunchy "red hot blue" corn chips from Garden of Eatin' in Santa Monica...

The "bulldozer" effect of the pocket gophers and other small mammals should not be emphasized as or assumed to be the primary reason for the rapid soil development in the area.
