Why you make a film, Black Snake Moan (Paramount Classics) about a white girl chained up by a black man in the South, of course Beyond this salacious setup-and the playfully inflammatory marketingdirector Craig Brewer proves there's more than one hit to his wonder.

"I don't love you no mo'." Ouch. Lazarus (Samuel L. Jackson) finds himself a cuckolded husband by himself for the first time in years on his remote, smalltown Tennessee farm.

Checkers fast food chain distibutes take-out bags designed as ...

TAMPA, Fla. - Animal control authorities are not amused by a fast food chain's marketing stunt encouraging customers to dress their cats in a special take out bag.

Tampa-based Checkers Drive-in Restaurants Inc. is distributing "Rapcat" bags designed with cutaway areas for the cat's legs and tail. The cat's head sticks out the opening of the bag, which is designed to look like a basketball jersey and gold chain worn by the hip-hop Rapcat puppet in Checkers commercials.

A Hillsborough County Animal Services news release on Monday said forcing a real, unwilling cat into a "Rapcat" bag could be considered felony animal cruelty. The bag's warning - "not all cats will be down with wearing this bag. Do not harm or endanger any cat" - is not enough, the agency said.

"We have no ill will toward Checkers or Rapcat as a character," said animal services spokeswoman Marti Ryan.
