24.Mar.2014 Avengers (ish)
Here's an update. A big one 'cause I'm lazy.
I drew this for a friend who's going to China next Thursday, based on a silly pic we took at a supermarket. We didn't have a Hulk. Or he/she was somewhere. I also sewed him a stegosaurus (crappy pic below).
On February I spent some time *trying* to draw a daily sketch. I failed, totally failed. I post here my favourites: one from The World's End, an Izzard reference (in my mind!) and Laika.
I posted the all on my Tumblr, if you want to see them.
25.Mar.2013 Celebrate Regenerate; Good god, Lemon; and some sketchy monsters
Heeeeey… this is awkward, long time not posting, etc.
This year we're celebrating Doctor Who 50 anniversary, and Lewis Christian from the Celebrate Regenerate project asked to draw the book's cover. I can't tell you how proud I am of the result.
And don't forget to go to the Celebrate Regenerate site to get all the information about the book.
And some sketchy monsters I drew on my tablet on Sketchbook Pro.
Oh, and of course, Happy Gondorian New Year! (and if you're from Mordor errr… bad luck?)
31.May.2012 A Rhino, a Lemur, a Capibara and a Koala Enter Into a Bar
I finished watching Last Chance To See and decided to practice drawing some animals.
Weird, I know.
25.Apr.2012 eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeagle!
I know I don't have to say I love Scrubs; Turk and JD's friendship is freaking amazing.
I wanted to draw this one on the style of Adventure Time, but failed. I still love the result, what the hell.
And something… different? weird? …? Bill Bailey is the Dalai Farmer. (I blame QI)
25.Apr.2011 The Two Masters
Some time ago Vivli made a brilliant strip about The Master talking to his other selves which include this panel Here's my version just because I love to draw Simm's Master and because Eric Roberts' Master is… infamous. Also, crappy cereal box sketch.
07.Apr.2011 Hello X-Files
Another crappy update, I'm sorry.
I just finished re-watching X-Files. Here's an X-Files/IT Crowd joke.
Very silly.
06.Apr.2011 The Peoples' Front of Judea.
Not the Judean People's front. Wankers.
Time for a crappy/sketchy update; the People's Front of Judea, Brian and Brian's mom from Monty Python's Life of Brian.
23.Mar.2011 A Shrubbery!?
They are not the Knights Who Say Ni, they are King Arthur (Graham Chapman) and the Knights of the Round Table, Sir Bedevere the Wise (Terry Jones), Sir Robin the Not-Quite-So-Brave-As-Sir-Lancelot (Eric Idle), Sir Galahad the Pure (Michael Palin) and Sir Lancelot the Brave (John Cleese). From one of my favourite movies: Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

14.Mar.2011 From my Moleskine: The Crunch
Would be a nice t-shirt, isn't it?
Click for bigger
Saboo: If you can't even handle a little carpet, what are you going to do when we come to The Crunch?
Tony Harrison: Ohhhh, my word, are we back to The Crunch?
Saboo: The Crunch, what are you doing to do.
Tony Harrison: Oh here we fucking go. The Crunch this, The Crunch that, why are you so obsessed with The Crunch?
Saboo: Do you want to know about The Crunch?
Tony Harrison: I do, yes.
Saboo: Because you are going to meet The Crunch a little bit before me my friend! *Slaps Tony off carpet*
Happy Pi day, btw.
18.Feb.2011 Nanageddon!
Blood on the walls, of London Town
Satan's evil in a nylon gown
Guess what? Time for another The Mighty Boosh update.
This one is from a conversation I had with Nadia about a Nanageddon episode (Series 2) B movie, it would be brilliant.
Cue my Nanageddon: The Movie poster.
I had lots of fun drawing this one, Howard and Vince in nana's clothes and Saboo… Saboo looks like a pimp, I loved drawing him.

And here's a clip from the Nanageddon episode.

Stay up-to-date with KAKE News:
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) -- Tampa Bay has acquired running back Michael
Bennett from the Kansas City Chiefs for an undisclosed draft pick.
The Bucs hope Bennett will help them compensate for the loss of
injured tailbacks Carnell "Cadillac" Williams and Michael
Bennett was a first-round draft pick of the Minnesota Vikings in
2001. He's rushed for 3,426 yards and 12 touchdowns in seven NFL
seasons. He also has 145 career receptions for 1,164 yards and five
The 5-foot-9, 207-pound Bennett was a Pro Bowl selection in 2002
with the Vikings, but injuries have prevented him from realizing
his potential as a pro. He played sparingly for the Chiefs as a
backup to Larry Johnson.

text: The Distressed Dunk SB are look-see samples from Nike's FT factory back in 2003. The "distressed" leather that both pairs share is created by tumbling raw, full-grain leather materials with a substance called paraffin wax. This process creates natural variations and markings - giving the leather a rugged, well-worn feel. The subtle sheen of the leather is created when the material is ironed after tumbling.Related Items

This recipe will be a life saver when you're having one of those days where anything with cheese looks mighty tempting. The ricotta recipe could be made on its own as a spread for crackers or sandwiches (or try it in Stuffed Mushrooms!)
Tofu Ricotta
-8oz extra firm tofu, crumbled (this is half of a typical package of tofu)
-1 8oz container of vegan cream cheese
-juice of 2 lemons
-3 cloves of garlic, pressed (minced)
-small handful of black olives
-5 chopped sundried tomatoes
-1/2 cup nutritional yeast
-drizzle of olive oil (2-3 tablespoons)
-generous sprinkle of Italian seasonings
Blend all ingredients in food processor until they reach a ricotta-like consistency. Taste test and adjust salt and lemon juice as needed.
-tofu ricotta (see above)
-1 bunch of chard leaves, rinsed thoroughly, large stems removed and leaves torn into bite sized pieces
-2 handfuls of button mushrooms, de-stemmed and sliced
-3 tablespoons of olive oil
-1 large jar of tomato sauce
-1 package of lasagna noodles
-1 cup Daiya mozzarella style shreds
Preheat oven to 350°.
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook lasagna noodles for 5 minutes. Drain water and set noodles aside.
Heat olive oil in a large pan on medium heat. Saute mushrooms until they get a little brown on the sides. Then add chard. Stir around and cook until chard is bright green and wilted.
Spread a layer of tomato sauce in the bottom of a casserole dish. Add a layer of noodles, slightly overlapping at the edges. Spread a layer of the "ricotta" on top of the noodles and then top with a layer of the chard/mushroom mixture. Then add more sauce, noodles, ricotta, chard, etc. and repeat until it looks like a masterpiece. Finish off with a layer of ricotta on the very top and a sprinkle of Daiya.
Cook uncovered about 40 minutes. You want the Daiya to be melted and the top ricotta layer to be slightly browned. Let cool 10 minutes before cutting into it.

Could Andy Pettitte win 300?By
Just after the Giants secured Randy Johnson's 300th career victory, Keith Law said: "Next up: Three days of articles on how Randy Johnson will be the last 300-game winner we ever see. My advice is that you ignore them." Amen, Keith. Not only are there a few current pitchers who can get to 300 wins. As Mike later noted, CC Sabathia has 122 wins at age 28, which is just slightly behind the pace of Greg Maddux and Roger Clemens, and a bit ahead of Tom Glavine. However, the most important comparison is Randy Johnson himself, who had just 49 wins at age 28. Longevity, not a bevy of 20-win seasons, is the key to getting to 300.
This is true of most baseball records. Just look at Pete Rose and his record 4,256 hits. Through his age-34 season he had 2,547 hits, just 12 more than Derek Jeter at that point. Rose had to accumulate 1,709 hits from age 35 on to attain his record. Likewise, Randy Johnson had to pick up 157 wins, or more than half of his total, from age 35 on. It shouldn't come as a surprise that these players had to stick around for a long time to attain these lofty marks. Even as someone who won four straight Cy Young awards, Johnson had to last through age 45 to get 300 wins.
There certainly could be more 300 winners in baseball's future. There won't be as many, of course, given the way teams manage their pitchers' workloads. But there will always be talented people who remain relatively healthy throughout their career and are able to pitch into their late 30s and early 40s. Those pitchers certainly have a shot to pick up 300 wins along the way, just like Johnson and Glavine did, despite not having stellar win totals in their late 20s.
Dave Pinto wonders if Andy Pettitte could be the next to 300. This might seem outlandish, and in a way it is. Pettitte is 80 wins away from 300 and is 37 years old. Even if he somehow picked up 15 wins this year (which would be possible if his back calms down), he'd still need 70 wins from age 38 on to attain that 300 mark. Combine that with the decision Pettitte has to make after every season, and it would seem foolish to even consider him for 300. Yet, consider the circumstances.
Starting pitching is hard to find. If Andy Pettitte is effective and wants to continue pitching, the Yanks would have to strongly consider keeping him around. Even if they decided to move on and go with the younger pitchers, Pettitte could certainly find a job elsewhere — perhaps while remaining in New York. He'd have to average 15 wins per year if he played through his age-42 season, though, which makes this seem unfeasible. Not impossible by any means. Just highly improbable.
Pinto admits this, though he does finish off with a strong point:
In the mid-1990s stories circulated about the end of the 300 game winner. Those stories turned out to be extremely wrong. There will be more 300 game winners, and I think some of them will surprise us.
That, ladies and gentlemen, is why I continue watching baseball every day from April through October. Anything can happen in any at bat, on any day, in any season, and over the course of any career. I'm sure we'll see another 300 game winner, and as Pinto says, it might not be someone we expect.

My Twitter response to KLaw's excellent tweet comment:
One more point: Andy is a lefty.
Lefties pitch FOR-EV-ER. Jamie Moyer says hello.
The guy has been flirting with retiring for the last 3 years. No way he pitches for another 5.
I don't think Pettitte will get it-I could see him retiring if the yankees win the World Series…it's just too much time.
My vote for the next 300 game winner goes to Halladay who seems like he pitches a complete game every time he goes out there…
My vote for the next 300 game winner goes to
HalladaySabathia who seems like he pitches a complete game every time he goes out there …and plays for a team that doesn't suck, like that guy Halladay.
Two things are certain:
1. There will be more 300 game winners.
2. At this point, it is next to impossible who the next 300 game winner is. There are many candidates, but they all need too many wins to be able to predict anything.
..next to impossible to predict..
Doubt he'll make it there, but I think he's got a fair shot at 250.
Considering he has nearly retired in each of the last two offseasons and he wants to see his sons play on a daily basis, I wouldn't invest too heavily in the idea of Andy winning 300.
Agreed. Pettitte pitches next year at the most, and only if the Yankees bring him back.
Of course not. It's unlikely to happen. It is, however, not impossible.
Of course you should never say never…but it does seem entirely unlikely.
The other thing is, he'll need to be on good, winning teams to make this happen, ala Glavine or Moyer. Like the, he pitches to a lot of contact.
Is that really PeteAbe?
If it were really Pete Abraham his handle would be "Interested Reader".
I don't think anyone is saying that it's likely. The point is that the media noise about Johnson being the last 300 game winner paints an inaccurate picture of the attainability of the 300-win mark. If a player as unlikely as Andy Pettitte (who has had a great career but has never been considered one of the best pitchers in the game) could, if he was determined to play into his mid-40s, reach the 300-win mark, then it's a bit inaccurate to proclaim that the era in which a pitcher could get to 300 wins is over.
every time there's a 300 game winner since nolan ryan they say its the last one. they probably said it before then to but i don't remember. there will be more. pettitte could do it, but he won't stay around long enough to do it. if he went to the no-hit NL (imagine what he could do on the dodgers in the NL West) he could do it in at least a year less. his numbers in houston were much better than in NY. if he had played in the NL his whole career he would be a hall of fame candidate.
Sure, but doesn't that also proof that A-Rod was tipping pitches?
He'd have to pitch at least another 4 years….it's not happening
Wait–300 what?
CC's got an outside shot. 13 more Ws this season gives him a "round" 135. 165 more over 9 seasons (18+/season) gets him to 300 at age 38.
King Felix will do it with the Yanks.
He has to do it with the Yanks cause he ain't going to do it with the M's getting shut out by assey Liriano.
Andy won't even win 10 games this year, forget about 300
he already has 5 on june 5 and hes supported by a great offense and a pen that should get better. plus hes a 2nd half pitcher.
last year he was pretty ATROCIOUS in the 2nd half
…Pitching injured
I'll believe Andy retires when he actually does. Hard to turn down 8 mill a yr when hes going well and hes healthy.
…I don't think that's his motivation. He's very family/church oriented, and I'll be shocked if he pitches next year.
I think there is one thing you are overlooking.
Correction. The correct phonetic spelling would be: "STAWWWWW-TING PITCHUH"
is Glavine tangentially related enough for me to ask if we'll be picking him up for couch change just so he can pitch one more time?
would love to see him pitch against Smoltz!!!
Say by the grace of Mo Moyer and/or Pettitte gets to 300 wins. What do the HOF voters do then?
With so many young pitchers out there, along with teams like us and the sox who plan on having a lot of winning seasons in the future. I don't see why it's fair to say no one will ever win 300.
5 more years of Pettitte in NY… no thanks. I respect what Andy has done for us and all, but at this point, he's brutal.
I think that's a tad strong.
My personal favorite possibility for 300 wins is Jeremy Bonderman Through their age 24 seasons Clemens had 60 wins, Maddux had 60, Glavine had 33, Johnson had 3, and Bonderman had 56 wins (at the end of last season). 56 wins all while having only one season (not counting this year) with an ERA+ over 100, which was 112, and never having a WHIP below 1.299.
If he ends this season with only 60 wins total (he is already at 59), he would only need to average 16 wins for the next 15 years to get to 300 wins by age 40. Now, I highly doubt this will happen, but it is just another way to show how wins are horrible statistic.
If Jeremy Bonderman averages 16 wins per season for the next 15 years, chances are he's not a bad pitcher. Wins aren't a horrible statistic. There might be better statistics, but you can't win 300 games if you aren't good.
haha. I l'edol at ONLY average 16 wins over the next FIFTEEN years. Wow.
Andy Pettitte will probably retire, as he has already threatened to more than once. I don't see him playing long enough.
I am getting sick and tired of hearing every other talking head on Baseball Tonight say Johnson is the last 300 game winner we will see in 50 years. Coming on Kurkjian, you are smarter than that.
RAB, you article was one the money and I couldn't agree more. Players today, thanks to medical advances, can play well into there 40′s. Who's to say Santana or Sabathia won't stick around that long.
As for Jamie Moyer, if he wins 300 he will become the first non-Hall of Famer in the group.
[...] Could Andy Pettitte win 300? / In Which Yankees Batters Do You Trust? [...]
He's absolutely right that it's lots of seasons, rather a few big-number seasons, that lead to career records. Henry Aaron never even had a 50 home run season. He got 755 home runs by playing until he was 42, as well as never having an injury-shortened season. That gave him over 12,000 at-bats. Combine that with a .305 lifetime batting average, and you get nearly 4,000 hits. Some of those are bound to land in the seats.

Walt Disney Co., the latest entertainment company to hop on corporate America's green bandwagon, is launching a new film production unit called Disneynature to make feature-length documentaries about animals and the environment.
The endeavor, inspired by the success of the 2005 Oscar-winning documentary "March of the Penguins," is in keeping with Disney's strategy to produce low-cost movies aimed at family audiences. "Penguins," distributed by Warner Independent Pictures, cost about $8 million to produce and grossed nearly 10 times that at the U.S. box office.

Meadville Tribune
Florence T. (Flo) Yurcich of 432 Patt Drive, Farrell, passed away peacefully after an extended illness at 8:30 a.m. on Monday, July 8, 2013, in her home which she shared with her son and caregiver, Mark Yurcich. She was 83.
Mrs. Yurcich was born Jan. 3, 1930, in Cambridge Springs, a daughter of Frank and Antonia Styborski.
One of 15 children, she attended a one-room schoolhouse in Cambridge Springs along with her siblings while growing up on a large family dairy farm.
Florence met her husband, Peter, while working as a waitress at Alliance College. They were married Nov. 27, 1948, and enjoyed 53 years together until Pete's passing on Sept. 15, 2002.
She was a member of St. Anthony's Catholic Church in Sharon.
In her spare time, Flo enjoyed traveling to polka dances throughout the area and taught many of her grandchildren her favorite dance.
The time that she most treasured was spent with her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, whom she loved dearly and spoiled as often as possible, always putting their needs before her own.
Many will remember Flo for her quick wit and smiling face as a waitress at Inn 62 in Hermitage for more than 20 years where she touched many lives. Her fun-loving personality brought many smiles and laughs to her many nieces and nephews over the years.
Flo is survived by her children, Carolyn Janosko and her husband, Robert, of Hermitage, Mark Yurcich and Ralph Deets at home, Barbara Mason and her husband, Michael, of West Middlesex, and Andrea Fletcher and her husband, Robert, of Farrell. She also leaves behind three brothers, John Styborski, Paul Styborski and his wife, Sara, and Stanley Styborski; three sisters, Frances Taylor and her husband, Michael, Mary Alice Malinowski and her husband, Robert, and Judy Novak; her grandchildren, Kelley Yurcich, Kim Hnida and her husband, Anthony, Jessica Dudzenski and her husband, Nick, Eric Janosko and his wife, Kristen, Monica Gartner and her husband, Jacob, Jacquelyn Mason and her fiancé, Mike Jones, Kristopher Mason, Tia Yurcich, and Jade and Hanna Fletcher; and four great-grandchildren, Shelby Yurcich, Antonio Hnida, Zachary Dudzenski and Connor Gartner.
Besides her husband, Flo was preceded in death by her parents; an infant daughter, Teresa; a daughter, Antoinette (Toni) Egelsky; eight brothers, Frank, Ted, Leo, Mack, Edward, Alec, Henry and Adam Styborski; and many loving in-laws.
Friends may call on Thursday from 5 to 8 p.m. in J. Bradley McGonigle Funeral Home and Crematory Inc., 1090 E. State St., Sharon. Condolences may be sent to her family by visiting mcgoniglefuneralhomeandcrematory.com.
Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Friday at 1 p.m. in St. Anthony's Church, 804 Idaho St., Sharon, with the Rev. Joseph Campbell, pastor, as celebrant.

As raucous as the show sometimes appears—with Prince and band members racing around the stage, seemingly at whim—everything is, in fact, occurring within a larger, orderly plan. Prince, of all people, believes that improvisation isn't a virtue in itself—even spontaneous gestures must be meaningful. Only rigorous rehearsals make that possible, and this band is flawless and taut. During a sound check in New York one evening, Prince was working with the crew on lighting cues. He'd casually count off song parts—"OK, second verse, from the top"—and the nine-piece band would instantly fall in exactly in time. It was as impressive as anything in the show itself.
"Oh, you can't go out there unless you've got the show completely in shape," Prince says after the Cleveland gig. "It can look pretty wild onstage, but everyone knows exactly where they're supposed to be. That was a lesson I had to learn from when I was starting out. When we first went out behind 1999, the Time, who were opening for us, beat us up every night. They would laugh about it; it was a joke to them. Our show wasn't together. I had to stop the tour and get things tightened up. Now me and the band have a certain relationship with each other, and every night we make the audience part of that."
It's hard to tell precisely what accounts for the more easygoing Prince. He refuses to speak about any aspect of his private life, but his becoming a Jehovah's Witness a few years back has seemingly brought him a good deal of spiritual calm. The religion's combination of absolute certainty and convoluted interpretive zeal suits him perfectly. He began his remarks at the Hall of Fame induction by offering "all praise and thanks to the most high Jehovah," and his additional declaration there that "too much freedom can lead to the soul's decay" should be read as his acceptance of the strict tenets of that faith. In consequence, he has expunged all profanity from his language and refuses to perform any of his racier songs—no "Darling Nikki," no "Head," no "Gett Off."
And speaking of sexual decorum, Musicology, among its other subjects, is a paean to monogamy ("Eye see U picked me out like U want something/But shame on U, baby, can't U see this ring?"). And Prince has even become an unlikely advocate for cleaning up the airwaves. "This culture is in big trouble," he insists. "All you see on television are debased images. Whether you believe it or not, black people do not want to see pictures of people wearing bulletproof vests. You saw the Super Bowl. I don't even need to say anything more about it. And who produced that? That should tell you something right there."
Prince's problem with MTV, which produced the Super Bowl halftime show with Janet Jackson's infamous wardrobe malfunction, is its de-emphasis on music ("Do you ever see a video on there?") and, like every other aspect of popular culture, its reliance on titillation. Discussing his Hall of Fame performance of George Harrison's "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" (a song he claims never to have heard before it was sent to him to learn for the show), Prince says, "It was an honor to play with Tom Petty—'Free Fallin' is one of my favorite songs. I used to love whenever he would come on MTV, because you knew you were going to get a great tune. MTV isn't like that anymore."
More personally, Prince's marriage to twenty-seven-year-old Manuela Testolini in 2001 seems also to have settled him. Beautiful, slender and soft-spoken, she was by his side virtually every moment he wasn't onstage in Cleveland. The past seven years or so have not been easy for Prince. The child he had with his first wife, Mayte Garcia, died from a rare illness after living for only a week. The couple's marriage ended not long after that. Both his parents passed away. Amid all that loss, remarriage and faith appear to have come as great, restorative gifts.

Quote:Seibert sells a two-part optical set of lenses that he promotes as giving .93x with no in-travel requirement.It appears that there are two lenses. The first screws into the front of a standard 2" diagonal using the filter threads. The second part appears to go into the eyepeice holder, and I would assume that the binoviewwer with a 1.25" nose is inserted into the top of the diagonal.Anyone here tried this setup yet?
Quote:Could this 1x OCA possibly be adapted to work with Newts?Mike
Quote:Initial impression is not very positive.Of course I wanted them for low powers in my 6" APO, but when I used eyepeices with a 27mm field stop, there was bad vignetting with the relay lens close to the mirror, and when I put it at the other end, I could not reach focus.I have not given up on it yet, but if I have to use a higher power eyepiece to eliminate the vignetting, then I would have been better off with the 1.5x GPC and a pair of Maxbrights.Again, have not given up. I will contact Seibert and see if I am doing something wrong, but for now, I have my reservations that it will work out.
Quote:Also, for anyone that is interested, this can be used with the Baader T2 diagonal if you order a special connector.

|Former Elementary Teacher Pleads No Contest To Molestation Charges
|Written by San Fernando Valley Sun
|Thursday, 23 August 2012 01:55
SAN FERNANDO (CNS) – A former third-grade teacher at Telfair Elementary School in Pacoima pleaded no contest to molesting 13 children over a roughly four-and-a-half-year period.
Paul Chapel III, 51, is expected to be sentenced to 25 years in prison when he returns to court Sept. 20, according to the District Attorney's Office. He pleaded no contest to 13 counts of lewd acts on a child – one for each of his victims, prosecutors said. As part of his sentencing, Chapel will also be ordered to register as a sex offender for life.
Chapel was originally charged last fall with sexually abusing three girls and a boy. In May, he was charged with molesting nine more kids, male and female. Prosecutors said the abuses took place between September 2006 and April 2011.
He was removed from the classroom in April 2011, and was fired by the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) in March. Chapel entered his plea just before a hearing was expected to begin before San Fernando Superior Court Judge Lloyd Nash on whether there was enough evidence for Chapel to stand trial. Two former Telfair students sued Chapel and the LAUSD in July, alleging Chapel touched them inappropriately and that the district failed to protect them.
The lawsuit contends that Chapel was accused of molesting an 8-year-old boy at his Ventura County home in 1997, and reassigned by the district temporarily to an administrative office. A jury that heard the criminal case against him could not reach a verdict and he was eventually allowed back into the classroom and assigned to Telfair School in 1998, the suit states.
LAUSD originally hired Chapel in 1989. According to the lawsuit, he was sued for making vulgar remarks and showing an inappropriate video at the private Chaminade High School in West Los Angeles. LAUSD officials had no comment on Chapel's plea, but said letters were sent to the homes of students explaining the court action.

Venceremos Brigade
Tool of Cuban intelligence
From its founding in 1969, the Venceremos Brigade was used by Cuban intelligence agency the DGI, to recruit American agents for use against their home country.
House Internal Security Committee Hearings/Report on the Venceremos Brigade
In 1972, as part of their "The Theory and Practice of Communism" series (1970-1974), the House Internal Security Committee (HISC) held a series of hearing on October 16, 18 & 19, 1972 in which they produced the most detailed history of the Venceremos Brigade (VB) ever done by Congress. It included not only internal documents, photos, and articles by and about the VB, but also the traveller manifests for the first 5 brigades (by state,city, name, etc).[1].
The number of Brigade members known for the first 5 trips were, as listed in the HISC hearings were:
- - First Brigade, 216: Nov. 28, 1969 - Feb. 12, 1970
- - Second Brigade, 687: Feb. 13 - April 28, 1970
- - Third Brigade, 405: Aug. 25 - Oct. 29, 1970
- - Fourth Brigade, 221: March 22 - May 29, 1971
- - Fifth Brigade, 138: March 6 - May 4, 1972
Among the early "brigadistas" were two later-to-be key leaders of the AFL-CIO, Karen B. Ackerman and Karen Beth Nussbaum. Others included members of the violence-oriented Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), some of whom would become members of the communist, terrorist SDS-faction, the Weather Underground Organization (WUO), aka Weather Underground (WU), and the mixed anti-Vietnam group, Vietnam Veterans Against the War in Vietnam (VVAW). Some of the VVAW members became associated with and leaders of the maoist Revolutionary Communist Party (RCP), who later captured the leadership of VVAW from other factions, including the one once led by John Kerry.
Another VB leader, Johnnetta Cole, eventually a college professor at Un. of Massachusetts, Amherst, and later president of Spelman College, Atlanta, was a member of President Bill Clinton's transition team for his first term, and was rumored to have been considered for the position of Secretary of Education for her communist past were revealed by several newspapers (Human Events, The Forward, etc). By that time she was also a member of the Advisory Board of the theoretical journal Marxist Perspectives.
Leaders and Members of the Venceremos Brigades
An attempt will be made to list all the known VB members from the 1st Brigade through whatever current number still exits. However, there were no known public lists of VB members after the publication of the HISC Hearings of October, 1972 so individual names found in various publications will be listed but the chances of obtaining full travel lists is slim unless they are to be found in the VB archives at an American university.
September 1971 VB internal publication Turquino listed the following as members of the "new Comite' Nacional":
- Angela Alicea - Brigada 4
- Bette Broussard - Brigada 2
- Terry Cannon - Brigada 4
- Eddie Demmings - Brigada 3
- Belvin Louise - Brigada 1
- Sandy Pollack - Brigada 1
- Gail Reed - Brigada 3
- George Singh - Brigada 1
Of these individuals, at least Cannon, Demmings, Pollack and possibly Reed were identified or open members of the Communist Party USA (CPUSA). Reed eventually married a Cuban "diplomat" and intelligence agent DGI operative named Julian Rizo, both of whom were later captured by U.S. troops in Grenada in 1983.
Gail Reed wrote a poem in tribute to Pollack for the book "Sandy Pollack: Her Life", 1987, U.S. Peace Council, Page 39, and was simply identified as "a journalist living in Havana." She married Cuban DGI agent Julian Rizo, who had been the "top official of the DGI's American station, and since 1974, first secretary of the Cuban U.N. Mission".(37) He "headed Castro's Venceremos Brigade program which was established to facilitate young American leftists' travel to Cuba for the purpose of indoctrination in Marxism-Leninism, which often led to recruitment by Cuban DGI intelligence." ..."Rizo was also liaison with terrorist organizations in the United States, including the [[Weathermen}, the Puerto Rican FALN, the PLO, and the Chilean MIR, (58) and organized the Puerto Rican Solidarity Committee (PRSC) in New York, a political supporter group for the pro-Castro Puerto Rican Socialist Party (PRSP)."[2].
Sandy Pollack eventually became a national leader of the VB and returned there in 1971. She later married Terry Cannon, another brigadista and CP member (and writer for their paper, the Daily World). Details about them appear in the tribute book "Sandy Pollack: Her Life" put out by the CPUSA front, the U.S. Peace Council US Peace Council, 1985. In fact, this book was put together by many leading members of the VB and the CPUSA including Cannon, Demmings, Susan Borenstein, and Prof. Johnnetta Cole (Page 5).
Also in the tribute was an excerpt Pollack wrote about "The Venceremos Brigade" (i.e. the first two), that appeared in the CPUSA publication New World Review (NWR) of Summer, 1970.
Pollack appeared in a photograph (Page 40) regarding the VB's 1983 trip, along with "Venceremos Brigade leaders Eddie and Dara Demmings".

- Dara Demmings - VB leader, 1983
Individual VB Members from Other Sources
Source: "Frontline" newspaper, June 27, 1983, Page 16, article by Shirley Nagai, "In Cuba With the Venceremos Brigade".
Nagai covered the "14th Brigade" and their 135-members trip to Cuba in June 1983. She described the VB as follows:
"The Venceremos Brigade was organized in 1969 to send North Americans to Cuba and break the U.S. government's informational blockade of the Western Hemisphere's first socialist country. Over the last 14 years, the Brigade has sent 14 contingents to Cuba - over 5,000 people - and it has the longest history of any U.S. educational project in solidarity with teh Cuban Revolution."
- Julie Nachiman - a founder of the VB, HISC Hearings, T&PC-VB, Part 2, 1972 op. cit., P.ag 7824/7825. She was also identified as a "leader of the Weatherman faction", Page 7824.
Members of NACLA North American Congress on Latin America, who were in the VB, as identified by S. Steven Powell:
- Michael Klare
- Gail Ann Grynbaum
- John Frappier
- Michael Locker
- Nancy Stein - "traveled to Cuba with the Venceremos Brigades between 1969 and 1972, some with multiple entries"[3]
Weathermen Underground Members Who Were in the Venceremos Brigades
A number of WUO terrorists had previously gone to Cuba in the Venceremos Brigades, especially numbers 1 and 2, and their names appeared throughout the HISC Hearings on the VB, 1972. Among the WUO leaders identified as having been in Cuba were:
- Bernadine Dohrn - Page 7836
- Mark Rudd - Page 7836.
- Ted Gold - P. 8130[4].

STANFORD — The Lincoln County Fairgrounds is home to dozens of events each year, accommodating anything from meetings to truck pulls to reunions. It is also the site of a great regional tradition – the Lincoln County Fair.
Those seeking some classic midsummer fun will find everything from exciting attractions, a fantastic midway, educational exhibits, food, animals and more at the 2013 Fair which runs July 1-6.
And whether you are an athlete or simply a spectator, one of the highlights of the annual county fair is the six nights of sporting contest and motor sports events.
Back by popular demand at the 2013 Lincoln County Fair is the Kentuckiana Truck Pullers Association (KTPA) Pulling Series. The KTPA will be hitting the red clay of the motor sports tracks three nights of next week's Fair, with the engines roaring to life Thursday, July 4 at 7:30 p.m. The first night of KTPA action will feature Economy Hot Rod Tractors, 10,000 Hot Farm Tractors, Super Stock 4WD Trucks and Stock Diesel Trucks. The event is limited to Lincoln County drivers.
The KTPA returns to the track both Friday, July 5, and Saturday, July 6 at 7:30 p.m. Friday night's pull is open to 6000 Light Limited Super Tractors, Super Modified 4WD Trucks, Super Modified 2WD Trucks and 2.6 Turbo Diesel Trucks. On Saturday, Pro Stock 2WD Trucks, Pro Stock 4WD Trucks, Super Modified 2WD Trucks and 8500 Pro Farm Tractors will roll.
Motor sports events are not limited to pulling, with horses, motorcycles and cars under the lights to start the week.
As has become a tradition at the Lincoln County Fair, the Broken Horn Rodeo will kick off the action down on the motor sports track Monday, July 1 at 7:30 p.m. The Broken Horn show will feature bareback riding, saddle bronc riding, steer wrestling, calf roping, team roping, barrel racing and bull riding. As an added bonus, a stick horse race will be held for the kids. The stick horse race will run in two classes, ages 5-under and ages 6-9, with the winners of each race receiving a new bicycle.
Motocross Freestyle Madness will be kicking up the clay on Tuesday, July 2. The event will take the green light at 7:30 p.m. There will actually be Freestyle action every night at this year's Fair with three shows of BMX Freestyle Madness presented daily in the horse show ring between 6 p.m. and midnight.
Then buckle up for Wednesday night, July 3, as the smash'em, crash'em action of the Demolition Derby takes center stage on the track. The Demolition Derby also starts at 7:30 p.m. and will feature big car, mini car and lawn mower events.
If those sporting events don't suit your taste, maybe hoops, horseshoes, cornhole or even a Lincoln County Fair Olympics are to your liking.
The 3-on-3 Basketball Outdoor Half-Court Tournament will be played on Tuesday, July 2, starting at 7 p.m. A doubles cornhole tournament will be played on the basketball court Wednesday, beginning at 7 p.m., and the singles tournament will be played Thursday, July 4.
Horseshoes will be a flying Friday and Saturday nights, July 5 and 6, with the singles competition set for Friday and the doubles taking over on Saturday. The start time is 7 p.m.
The Lincoln County Fair Olympics is new this year. The competition, which will be held on the basketball court, is open to church groups and community/school groups with $500 going to the first-place team in each division, $300 to the second-place team and $200 to the third-place team.

Watrous Street is a busy place these days in East Hampton. If the completion of the Airline Trail wasn't enough for the narrow stretch of road perched above the Village Center, the activity at a building next to the trail simply adds to the good news.
That is where Bevin Bros. Manufacturing and PSI Plus are setting up shop, as least until a new factory is built, so they can get on with the business of making bells and cylinders.
And the state is doing its part to make sure they do.
Gov. Dannel P. Malloy announced on Wednesday that the state's Small Business Express (EXP) program will support the two companies that were destroyed in a fire during the early-morning hours of May 27.
"Connecticut has a proud history as the home of the Bevin Bell factory, and we are putting our economic development tools to work to assist Bevin Brothers and P.S.I. Plus in their effort to rebuild here in Connecticut," Malloy said in a press release. "We are fortunate that these two companies will persevere despite this terrible fire — there is a lot of work ahead, but the state is stepping up so their employees can get back on the job as soon as possible."
The Department of Economic and Community Development (DECD), which administers EXP, will provide $100,000 in matching grants to each company. Bevin Bros. will use its grant to purchase machinery and equipment so that its employees can begin producing bells as soon as possible. PSI Plus plans to purchase new equipment and fund renovations at the same facility.
"It's one small piece of what will be needed to put these companies back together again," said Matt Bevin, the owner of Bevin Bros. Manufacturing. "It literally represents just a very small percentage of what is needed but the fact that we are already spending monies as part of our recovery, that the state is willing to come along side for a portion of that, is greatly, greatly appreciated. A lot of people have worked hard to make this happen and to make it happen so quickly and we can not express enough gratitude for it. It's fantastic."
Bevin Bros. Manufacturing is the last bell manufacturer in the country and has been making bells in East Hampton for 180 years. PSI Plus, a manufacturer of high pressure specialty gas cylinders since 1991, was a tenant in the factory complex.
"I think it's great. I'm glad the state was able to come through and help them out," said Jeff Jylkka, East Hampton's acting Town Manager. "I'm really pleased for them. I think everyone is anxious to see them get back up and running and making bells and making cylinders."
There is a possibility of other state assistance down the road, but this grant was designed for the short-term to help get the companies back on their feet.
"This was the one we thought had the best chance for them getting a grant. That was really through Bevin, it wasn't through us, that grant," Jylkka said, adding he wasn't sure what other possibilities Bevin might be exploring. "We still have to sit down and talk with the Brownfields [Redevelopment Agency] folks and take a look and see if there are any grants through the EPA or DEEP for some help with the cleanup [of the original site]."
The building on Watrous was once home to the American Thread Company and the Artistic Wire Company, among others. Over the last 40 years or so it has been primarily rented to various local businesses and as a warehouse.
For the foreseeable future, it will take on a new life manufacturing bells and cylinders.
Any individual, group or business is reminded that donations can be made through the web site www.keepthebellsinbelltown.com.

Columbia: The state has yet to sample the first spring chinook of the season in the lower river. In The Dalles Pool, bank anglers are catching steelhead though most of the fish were wild and had to be released. In the Bonneville and John Day pools, bank and boat anglers are catching some legal-size sturgeon.
Cowlitz: Steelhead fishing remains slow. During a state creel check, 18 boat anglers had kept just one steelhead, while 58 bank anglers kept three steelhead and released one. Finally, people were catching smelt. Ten-pound limits were the general rule Saturday, which was the last scheduled fishery. Some limits were caught in as little as a single dip.
Olympic Coast: The steelhead action was fair to good last weekend, based on creel samples. Some of the fish are topping 20 pounds. The Sol Duc and Calawah were producing almost one fish per person. But the rain has brought river levels up to the point where they are nearly unfishable.
Skookumchuck: Steelhead action has been poor early this week, slowed by bad water conditions and a lack of fish.
Tilton: During the past week, Tacoma Power employees released 12 steelhead and one coho salmon into the river at Gust Backstrom Park in Morton.
Wynoochee: A few steelhead are being caught, but the action overall has been slow.
Yakima: This might be a good week to fish the river because flows are expected to rise next week. The trout have been hitting skwala nymphs below a dry fly, while a few are being caught on dry skwala patterns.
American: The action for rainbow trout has been fair to good. Some anglers are trolling a pink Wedding Ring tipped with a piece of worm near the islands. Others are hooking some kokanee using a pink splatter dodger and pink mini-shrimp baited with corn and pink maggot, fished about 35 feet down.
Lenice: Fishing was on the slow side since the opener, but people are catching a few rainbow trout, as well as some large brown trout. Try casting a bead head hare's ear nymph on an intermediate sink line into water about 5 feet deep.
Mayfield: The lake is at full pool already, and visibility in the water is good. Still, it's a bit early for the tiger muskies to start hitting any fast retrieve, so go slow.
Roosevelt: People fishing around the Fort Spokane launch are having success catching some chunky rainbow trout. One angler reported having luck trolling a olive bunny fly, and stopping the motor occasionally to let the fly sink. That is when the trout would hit.
Beaches: The fly-fishing action for sea-run cutthroat trout has been better than expected for this time of year, but the action for resident coho has been slow. Try using small Clouser minnows, euphausiids and brightly colored Woolly Buggers.
Hood Canal/North Sound: The best blackmouth action has been in the Port Angeles area and off Pleasant Harbor Marina in the canal.
South Sound: The weather and a lack of anglers has meant little success. Just 14 anglers were checked at four area ramps over the weekend, and no one brought in a fish. Try along the slag pile near the old smelter site, off the Les Davis Pier and inside and outside of Quartermaster Harbor. Fish your gear about 10 feet off the bottom in water 120-160 feet deep.Contributors: State Department of Fish and Wildlife, Art Tachell at Point Defiance Boathouse, The Evening Hatch, gamefishin.com, washingtonflyfishing.com, washingtonlakes.com, Dan Knickerbocker at Puget Sound Fly Co.

By Joely Walker
Any self-respecting show-goer's first destination upon arriving in New York for fashion week isn't her hotel or her favourite coffee spot. It's the nearest nail salon.
This isn't because there's anything intrinsically better about NY nail salons—it's just that they're such a pervasive part of the culture that it seems absurd not to treat yourself to a little luxury. Actually, luxury? Strike that—glossy nails are practically a NY prerequisite: it's a point of pride to most New York women never to appear in public with chipped lacquer.
Every other block in the city is home to a colourfully named nail salon. A 10-minute walk from my front door could take me to options including Magic Fingers III, Pretty Angel Nails, New Cozy, Dashing Diva, Cindy's Healing Hands… you get the idea.
Some people swear by the modernity and spa-like feel of TenOverTen or Pinky, where the soundtrack consists of soothing tunes rather than conversational din. But remembering the 'should I, shouldn't I?' days of £50 mani-pedis in London, it's the cheapies that command my loyalty and devotion.
So it was that after landing in New York on Wednesday, with loads of dry cleaning and laundry and unpacking and invitation-sorting to manage before heading out to the J Brand presentation, I ignored it all and went straight to a local salon nails. For $35 and perfunctory conversation ("short, square, very little cuticle cutting, thanks"), I got an OPI GelColor manicure sure to take me through 50+ shows, and a pedicure that means I don't have to think twice if I go insane and contemplate wearing open-toed shoes. (PS: it's snowing.)
I may not know what to wear to the shows tomorrow, but I know my nails won't let me down. Not too shabby for less than the cost of two London cocktails. Wouldn't you say?

NASHVILLE, Tenn.- Embattled US Representative Scott DesJarlais has launched a new effort to hold onto his seat following the revelation he urged a patient with whom he'd had an affair to get an abortion.
Early this week DesJarlais campaign began airing targeting his opponent, Democrat Eric Stewart. A recent poll conducted by Stewart's campaign suggests the gap between DesJarlais and Stewart has narrowed.
DesJarlais has also worked to reassure supporters of his anti-abortion stance, pointing out the woman was not actually pregnant, and no abortion took place. Meanwhile comedian Stephen Colbert brought the scandal up on his cable show Wednesday.
"I say DesJarlais actions are absolutely consistent with his beliefs. He is still adamantly against abortion, except in cases where it endangers the political life of the father," said Colbert.
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has moved the 4th district race up on its list of priorities, an indication that it may plan to back Stewart financially.

Sen. Bob Deuell recently introduced Senate Bill 460 into the Texas Legislature, a bill that would include the detection and education of students with mental or emotional disorders as part of the training process for Texas educators.
The training would help educators teach and intervene with students that have mental or emotional disorders, according to the bill, and would provide notice to the parents or guardian of the students' mental or emotional disorder, so they can take appropriate action.
The mental health of our nation's youth has become a significant issue in America, due in part to its relation with mass school shootings. We agree that educators should be trained in how to recognize mental and emotional disorders and how to interact with students who have these disorders.
Such training is very necessary and could diffuse potentially volatile situations. Discovering these disorders early in a child's development could save the student, the school and their parents years of frustration and confusion.
However, in a culture that has become even more reliant on educators to raise its children while increasing its criticism of said educators, it is important that parents take responsibility for identifying any emotional or mental disorders their children have.
Educators play a significant role already in the development of our children, and, since they spend hours upon hours each day with our children, educators are uniquely suited to interact with and examine students' actions.
This additional training should not increase our educators' liability, either. Instead, it should be another tool for teachers to assist parents in the education and development of their children.
Educators are already overworked and are treated as if they are surrogate parents. It is up to parents to talk with their children, observe their behavior, and seek help if they notice signs of mental or emotional disorders.
The Texas Department of State Health Services has information and a list of advocacy groups on their website, www.dshs.state.tx.us.
The Herald-Banner can be reached at email@example.com. For more information on Deuell's bill, visit www.legis.state.tx.us.

A 33-year-old man suspected of stealing a flat screen TV from a local restaurant was arrested early this morning after a helicopter crew spotted him hiding on a roof, police said.
At 12:32 a.m. the Santa Monica Police Department dispatched officers to at 2820 Main Street, where a burglar alarm was going off. Officers arrived and spotted a suspect on the roof, said Santa Monica police Sgt. Richard Lewis.
They set up a perimeter and asked for assistance from the Los Angeles Police Department, which sent two helicopters, he said. The suspect, later identified as Cory Hoffman, was spotted by the choppers on the roof at 2802 Main St.
"After several loud speaker announcements, the suspect surrendered without incident," Lewis said.
Hoffman was arrested and the TV was recovered at about 2:30 a.m.
