Battlestar Galatica - An Brand New Journey

by Gen Wright

Looking for some great entertainment lately? TV shows with great stories and an outstanding cast are common these days. This gives rise to a little problem. You are going to have trouble choosing the TV show that you would like to watch. Perhaps the best way to do so, is to select the TV show based on genre. For example, if you like horror shows, then choose horror TV shows.

If you like romantic comedies, then watch something funny. But if you are a sci-fi fan, then perhaps only sci-fi related shows can quench your thirst for sci-fi action. Sci-Fi is a rather unique genre. Not everyone enjoys Sci-Fi shows. But for those who enjoy such TV shows, they are usually hardcore fans. In other words, they will read of view anything that's related to science fiction. Why is that so? Well, there could be many different reasons that would help explain this phenomenon. But perhaps the main reason is that not everyone understands Sci-Fi.

Therefore, not everyone knows how to enjoy Sci-Fi. Outer space may be an attractive place for some people. But to others, it may just be an empty vacuum with nothing interesting. The only thing that makes Space so interesting, is the human race. Sci-Fi is not a new genre. It has survived many years in the entertainment industry. A number of TV shows have become so popular that producers have decided to re-shoot the series. Battlestar Galatica is a prime example. Battlestar Galatica was first released in 2003. The storyline revolves around the humans fighting against the Cylons. The Cylons were responsible for wiping out the Twelve Colonies of Kobol.

The remaining humans escaped in an old but powerful warship. Their goal is to locate the planet Earth, before the Cylons manage to catch up with them and eliminate them. This series ended up with an Emmy Award, and an Oscar Award nomination. That was in 2003. Today, the series has been revived. Battlestar Galatica came to live once more on the TV screens. And since it's a brand new series, you can expect this to be a brand new journey. The adventures are somewhat different. Instead of focusing on aliens, the TV show focused on the humans instead. So in this new series, there is no mention of extraterrestrial beings.

There are even cats and dogs caught on screen, depicting a purely human experience. Of course, like all TV shows, even though the storyline is important, the cast is as important as well. Without a great cast, no story can be expressed vividly enough to capture the imagination of the fans. The main characters include Edward James Olmos, Mary McDonnell, Katee Sackhoff, Jamie Bamber, James Callis, Tricia Helfer, and Grace Park. Get ready to share one the most exciting journey ever portrayed on TV with this outstanding cast.

Black is the color of style and attitude. A color loved by all. A perfect party wear color, it is usually said that you are not ready for a party unless you are dressed in black. It is all this and more….much more than a mere shade, it is a persona. Fountainhead black refuses to adhere by rules and regulations and is one and only one in the shade card that does not reflect light. For all this and more, this mysterious color has been adopted by the fashionistas and has been sealed till eternity as a chic, sophisticated, sensuous, opulent hue.

One of the most significant hue for menswear- not only for its deep and mysterious look but also for its amazing ability to conceal fat and lend a sophisticated air to just about any body who wear it. It doesn’t matter whether you are fat, thin, fair, dark, and young, mid aged, or old……this color does justice to all. OctanMen, online men’s fashion magazine, tells you how you capture the magnificence of this tint.

Al a mode with black
Black in an unadorned shirt, ordinary trousers, or regular jeans brings in vibrancy and radiates a chic and sophisticated look that no other color can. The perfect hue for foggy, chilly winter days or evenings by the bonfire…..it is just what the doctor orders for the cold months.

Step into a dark trouser and shirt for office, on casual days full sleeve top paired with solid colored jeans, and soft sweaters, fitted jackets keep you feeling warm and appearing hot anytime of the day. Whatever you opt to pair it with, where ever you desire to flaunt this…be assured your look will be sharp, chic, and cutting edge.

As a rule, go in for soft fabrics for tops, T- shirts, and crease- free ones for shirts and trousers. Safest hue for any formal appearance, it has the knack of lending a dressy mien to just about any outfit. When the dress code of a party’s invite reads ‘formal’, OctanMen recommends a formal black suit combined with either a white or black dress shirt will ensure compliments keep rolling in.

If all black is not you, smash the monotony and clad in a formal jacket in this tone with a fitted full sleeve V neck T – shirt. For jackets fabric, opt for fabrics with sheen. Another option is to experiment pairing black clothes with silver, grey, and white to create contrasts. For T- shirts, this dark color works as a perfect base if you have a message or point to make. Red, white, yellow, blue, orange, green….vibrant hues adorned with texts or graphics stand out amazingly against a dark background.

Dress up a top with studs, crystals, and other embellishments for a club look Texture, embroideries, self design on black either are loud and stand out or are subtle and blend it- whatever you prefer they are in vogue. Rich fabrics such as corduroy, velvet, lycra, viscose, and silk for shirts, trousers, suits are excellent. If you are going in for embroidery, stick to one color or maximum two.

Add - ons

1.Tie and Scarves: Black ties when contrasted with black, white, or silver shirt can jazz up any plain look. Go in for sheen over a matt and look out for textures and self design as they appear stylish.

2.Vests: Choose from a spectrum of designs, fabrics, and texture. Vests add a sporty and macho look when combined with jeans, cargo, pants, tracks, or shorts.

3.Socks: Rules of fashion clearly articulate that black socks should be worn with black shoes. If you want to add in a dash of color, try contrasting vibrant stripes.

4.Belts, shoes, and carry bags: Belts, shoes, and carry bags in diverse tones of this color reflect sophistication, style, splendor and increase your FQ

Dos and Don’t
1. Never match two different shades of black together.
2. Creases are easily visible on this color. Ensure they are well ironed before you step in them.

3. It’s always better to dry clean than wash black garments. But, if dry cleaning is not an option, then soak garments in cold water for half an hour with salt. Salt will prevent them for loosing color.
4. It looks best in cold months. Don’t overdo black in summers.

OctanMen, online men’s fashion magazine, suggests black is in flavor throughout the year. So, when it doubt wear black!!!
