Cowboy boots and stiletto high heels graced the floor of The Bing Crosby Theater Tuesday night. Fling At The Bing was a fund raising event for "Nothing Like A Redneck Christmas", a film to be shot in Spokane late this winter. 

Singer songwriter Chris Lucas entertained guests as they dined on fresh hot New York pizza. Dry Fly Distilling provided gin and vodka and Townsend Cellars poured award winning wine throughout the evening. As silent auction lists lengthened, Milonga opened on stage with hot salsa music sending the boots and heels directly to the dance floor. The smell of fresh roasted Tom Sawyer coffee filled the lobby as winners of the raffle were announced. The gala evening was a success as filmmakers and newcomers came together with the common interest of the film.

"Nothing Like A Redneck Christmas" is a comedy about a family that loves one another but can't stand each other. Serena Belsby, the writer of the feature film, is a Spokane native. Her family ranch outside of Cheney will be one of the locations used to make the movie.

Snapshot of the International Space Station
On March 13, 2008, the International Space Station passed across the field-of-view of Germany's remote sensing satellite, TerraSAR-X, at a distance of 195 kilometers, or 122 miles, and at a relative speed of 34,540 kilometers per hour, or more than 22,000 mph. In contrast to optical cameras, radar does not 'see' surfaces. Instead, it is much more aware of the edges and corners which bounce back the microwave signal it transmits. Smooth surfaces such as those on the station's solar generators or the radiator panels used to dissipate excess heat, unless directly facing the radar antenna, tend to deflect rather than reflect the radar beam, causing these features to appear on the radar image as dark areas. The radar image of the station therefore looks like a dense collection of bright spots from which the outlines of the space station can be clearly identified. The central element on the station, to which all the modules are docked, has a grid structure that presents a multiplicity of reflecting surfaces to the radar beam, making it readily identifiable. This image has a resolution of about one meter (about 39 inches). In other words, objects can be depicted as discrete units--that is, shown separately--provided that they are at least one meter apart. If they are closer together than that, they tend to merge into a single block on a radar image. Since this image as taken, the station has expanded and is more than 90 percent complete, including a full complement of solar arrays. Image Credit: DLR...

Help Make A Difference! Donate Today.

The Inland Echo is taking donations on behalf of Lakeview Cemetery in Sprague for a field trimmer ($600 cost) to knock down the heavy overgrowth. Lakeview does not receive public funds, so volunteer donations are the only way to support the work to renovate this forgotten, historic final resting place of dozens of people, including many veterans. Please help us accomplish this important work. Thank you!
