In the end, an antifascist from Philadelphia was arrested after the neo-Nazis menacingly approached the antifascists, with every intention of assaulting them. Showing their true colors, police rushed in to defend the neo-Nazis and arrest the antifascists, leaving the fascists free to walk the streets while the antifa was carted away to jail.
Dear Friends and Comrades:
As part of a supposed national day of protests organized by various fascist groups, over a dozen neo-Nazis appeared at the state capitol in Harrisburg, PA today to "to arouse the attention of mainstream media to the rapes, murders and other horrendous ATROCITIES our brethren in South Africa [read: white racists] endure on a DAILY BASIS."
Antifascists from across the region organized to counter this insanely racist propaganda the neo-Nazis were attempting to spout, trying to both shout them down and block their signs so their hateful rhetoric would neither be seen or heard.
In the end, an antifascist from Philadelphia was arrested after the neo-Nazis menacingly approached the antifascists, with every intention of assaulting them. Showing their true colors, police rushed in to defend the neo-Nazis and arrest the antifascists, leaving the fascists free to walk the streets while the antifa was carted away to jail.
We do not have much more information at this point, but we are being told that the person arrested is being charged with simple assault, possession of a concealed non-lethal weapon and at least two other charges. His arraignment is scheduled for sometime tonight - probably after 9PM. We will have the exact bail amount and more information then. In the meantime, considering the number and severity of the charges we do know about, we are starting to fundraise bail money.
The easiest way to donate money is through a GreenDot Money Pak. Money Paks are a simple and easy way to anonymously send money varying in amounts from $20 - $500 ($1100 at Wal-Mart). We prefer MoneyPaks over Paypal because of Paypal's history of disabling accounts with little justification, and because the MoneyPak method is almost instaneous.
How to Send Money via MoneyPak
A Money pak is a consumer product in which you pay a retailer money and in return receive a 14 digit number. You can then give this to us and we receive the money. Fast and anonymous (assuming you pay with cash).
1. Find out were your nearest retailer is that carries these cards. This is as easy as visiting https://www.moneypak.com/StoreLocator.aspx and putting in your zip code. Unfortunately Money Paks are only available inside the US at this time.
2. Go to that retailer, you will find the Green Dot Money Pak were you will find other various PrePaid cards for phone, online games, gift cards, etc. You are looking for Green Dot Money Pak (Not the prepaid visa). Do not get the card that looks like a prepaid credit card.
3. Now take the proper card up to the front counter (Some are scratch off some are just a scan and its printed on a receipt for you) and they will ask you the amount you want place on the code/card tell them the amount and then there's a $4.95 fee added by the retailer and that's your total.
4. When you are done. go ahead and shoot us an email to firstname.lastname@example.com with the 14 Digit code.
Anything you can donate would be helpful! And please pass on the word! If you need to donate in some other, please contact us at the email address below and we'll work something out.
-NYC Antifacists
UPDATE: Bail has been set at $25,000 with 5%, so $1250 is needed to bail this person out. Please donate what you can and help spread the word. Email firstname.lastname@example.com for more info.
Yeah the police are nazis to...get real the police being nazi supporters what ever.
The bail bondsman changed his story, and now it's 10% that's needed. People on the ground made some good headway to the original goal, let's keep it going!
I don't get why a protest against atrocities committed against White South Africans is objectionable?
This antifa should stay in jail and enjoy his showers! LOL!

The anti-Whites have shown their true colors. They want White GeNOcide.
Anti-racist is a code word for anti-White.
Have you seen the stats on what is happening to the White race in Africa? It sickens me that the establishment and the Anti-racists cheer on the Genocide of my race. From what I see of the violence I have seen at these types of events it is the anti-racists and anarchists who are mad with hate. Mandela was a terrorist leader of a group that killed white kids, and he is a modern day hero. That is the truth of the phrase Anti-racist is just a code word for anti-White.
Ah, the ole "out of Africa" hypothesis.
Why is that hypothesis only used to benefit Blacks in White countries outside Africa?
In America & Europe, we're told "we're all from Africa" so we have to set aside our ethnic interests to not offend our Black "cousins."
In South Africa, even though "we're all from Africa," we're told Whites have no right to the country they built. People shouting "we're all from Africa" to "fight raaacisssm" aren't anti-racist at all. They're anti-White.
The more and more you anti-whites insist on White geNOcide and insist on suppressing pro-whites, the more and more you justify even harsher payback. All your "anti-racism" is about attacking Whites, "anti-racism" is a code word for anti-white.
He likes it in prison. He told me so. He wants to stay in. He has a big black cell mate who is giving him great butt sex. So thanks for everyones help, but it is not needed anymore
One of the first anti-racist was Leon Trotsky. He invented the word "racist" as a way to attack people who opposed his multi-racial basis for empire. He is the patron saint of many anti-racists.
We know how that thing with Trotsky and communism worked out with 60 million dead bodies of white Christians.
Seems the anti-racists are always considered good intentioned, but leave dead bodies in their wake.
Let's just look at the real effects of anti-racism, the real world. That is way I continue to ask this question:
White countries are being flooded by non-whites. We are told to be TOLERANT. We are forced to integrate. With assimilation we see the
extinction of one race only, the white race.
How is this not genocide?
I just contributed a penny. I hope that M/F enjoys picking up the soap!

Two teams entered seemingly even on paper, but when the time expired and Akron took home the Wagon Wheel for the first time in four seasons, it was clear that Kent State (2-8 ,1-5 MAC) and the Zips (3-7, 2-4 MAC) are headed in very different directions.
Akron downed Kent State 16-7 Saturday in a defensive struggle, that before the game seemed it would have played right into the style the Golden Flashes preferred. Running was the name of the game as both defenses shut down the opposing quarterback, making the units one-dimensional. But Akron's swarming secondary, which managed to pick off Kent State freshman quarterback Colin Reardon three times.
The Zips struck early, driving 78-yards down the field on four plays to score just 1:08 into the game. But after that initial burst of high-octane offense, the teams found themselves locked into a struggle.
The remainder of the first quarter saw Akron force Golden Flashes thunder and lightening duo of Trayion Durham and Dri Archer each cough the ball up once, but the Zips were unable to capitalize on the turnovers and punted twice in the first quarter. Durham pounded the ball into the end zone mid-way through the second quarter to cap off a brutal 11-play drive and notch the game up at 7-7, but Kent State's offense never saw a hint of the endzone again.
The next six Golden Flashes drives went for 22-, 17-, 24-, 38-, 2- and 50-yards, with the last three all ending in crucial interceptions (all in the fourth quarter) by Johnny Robinson, Malachi Freeman and Martel Durant.
With Akron's defense tormenting the struggling Kent offense, Jawon Chisholm chiseled away at Kent's defense. For the second straight week he tallied more than 150-yards on the ground, racking up 151 yards on 27 carries in the win. With him moving the ball down the field (making up for Kyle Pohl frustrating afternoon that saw him throw for just 98 yards while completing less than 50 percent of his passes) Akron was able to notch three field goals, including one with 30 seconds left in the first half, to win the game.
The win tripled Akron's victory total from a season ago, and matched the combined victories from the past three seasons. It was a signal that the scrappy team that took Michigan to the wire and gave NIU fits was the real Zips squad, not the one that got blown out at home by Ohio. It marked a flip of the page to a new chapter in Akron Football, that certainly is going to take on a more cheery tone in the next few years after years of dark and scary tales.
For Kent State it signaled that this season is the beginning of what will likely be a long drawn out rebuilding process under first-year head coach Paul Haynes. Archer, and defensive studs Roosevelt Nix and Luke Wollet are just a handful of the teams key players that will be gone after this season.

I need help with a problem. I need a number I can call--to a ministry that doesn't exist--from what I have been able to research. It might also be that I am, well, a little crazy to expect a match for myself. Is there a ministry that you all are aware of for people to get, like a prayer partner, when you are basically a sex(porn)addict? I can not deny my Lord, but I can't seem to control myself with this sin, without compounding it into a greater sin. I hope that doesn't sound too odd. Any help would be appreciated.
I do have some suggestions for you, and bless you for asking. Praise God, there IS help!!
Online, may I suggest these sites:
My favorite is Setting Captives Free, which has a blow-your-socks-off excellent online 60-day Bible study course (that is FREE!!) called "The Way of Purity." This Christ-centered course not only addresses the core issues that contribute to a porn addiction, but they provide online mentors for every student:
Every Man's Battle has a great book, a great seminar to attend, and online support: www.everymansbattle.com
Help in Breaking Pornography Addiction:
Also, Focus on the Family has a great site called Pure Intimacy (www.pureintimacy.org), which is divided into two sections. One for those struggling with sex addiction, and the other for those who love the strugglers.
One other resource: Neil Anderson has helped MANY men with sex addictions through his book A Way of Escape.
I pray for you, _____, that God will show you the way of escape through the glorious truth that your "old man" was crucified with Christ and the new you was raised with Him. . . and that the way out of this addiction is to stop trying harder (which I'm sure you are an expert at) and depend fully on Jesus to live HIS powerful, holy life through you. The way out of sexual addiction is "Christ in you, the hope of glory." (Col. 1:27)
I do hope this helps.
In His grip,
Sue Bohlin

The Packers, Patriots and 49ers are considered the biggest favorites to win their respective divisions entering 2012. And why not? All three won their divisions by five games last season and have lost very little in the offseason.
But keep an eye on three teams behind them, maybe not even that far, in those divisions. The Bears, Bills and Seahawks are ready to make a move this season. As PFW handicapping sage Mike Wilkening recently wrote, at least in the case of the Bears and Bills, Vegas is taking notice, too.
With rumors flying Friday morning that the Bears and RB Matt Forté are nearing a contract extension, it would remove a big question mark from the table. Remember, before Forté and QB Jay Cutler went down last season, this was a very dangerous team, one many thought capable of beating the Packers head up. The Bears were 7-3 at that point, having thumped the Falcons and Lions at home by a combined 42 points.
There are a few positions to be uneasy about for the Bears heading into this season. The offensive line still faces questions despite a system that should be more favorable and less demanding in terms of pass blocking. Brandon Marshall should be a star in Chicago, but there is a lack of explosion with the rest of the pass catchers; really, none scare you if Alshon Jeffery doesn't make an impact right away. Safety, which has been a revolving door, also needs to be settled, and the DT crop looks quite thin.
Are they good enough to beat the Packers? To me, that's not even the question yet. It's whether the Bears can get ahead of the Lions. Right now, the pressure is on in Detroit. They have a loaded, talented team but one with some worries, and the Bears showed in 2011 they can hang quite well with them.
The schedule sets up for some pretty good drama: The Bears are home after two straight road games and their bye to face the Lions in Week Seven and don't get them again until Week 17 in Detroit. Four of the final six games for the Bears are in the NFC North, so they'll have to stay healthy and leave plenty in reserves. For an older team, it's a worry, but the Bears have enough to have one more big season with this veteran corps on defense.
The pressure is building steadily for the Bills, who made splashes in free agency and scored some prêt-à-porter players near the top of their draft class — CB Stephon Gilmore, OLT Cordy Glenn and perhaps WR T.J. Graham are ready to contribute. Have they closed the ground with the Patriots after signing DEs Mario Williams and Mark Anderson (he of the Patriots last season) and beating them once in dramatic fashion in 2011? Maybe not. The Patriots are still loaded, coming off a close loss in the Super Bowl and having reloaded on defense.
But that doesn't mean the Bills can't make a run in the AFC, where, frankly, they might be able to get by with Ryan Fitzpatrick as their quarterback. There's no light treading with this one: He was magnificent in the first seven games last season, fairly miserable the final nine. Not shockingly, the Bills' record followed suit with a 5-2 start followed by a 1-8 finish.
Perhaps noted QB coach David Lee can help. By the end of the season, the cerebral Fitzpatrick's mechanics were a hot mess. Cleaning those up will be paramount for the Bills to take the next step. Fitzpatrick isn't blessed with an abundance of skill-position talent around him, but there's enough there to score points consistently
This season, interestingly, the schedule softens quite a bit after a tricky start. They face four games against 2011 division winners (49ers, Texans and twice vs. Patriots) in the first nine games, but after that follows mostly non-playoff teams and four of their five December games are at home. That alone should help flip the hot-start, cold-finish pattern of a year ago.
Naturally, that's if they stay healthy. Last season was devastating on the injury front, losing key cogs such as RB Fred Jackson, DT Kyle Williams and criminally underrated C Eric Wood, plus others, and the Bills' lack of quality depth showed through. But that has been built up some, especially on defense, and a Williams-Williams-Anderson-Marcel Dareus line should be a big help to a pass rush that was scalding one game (10 sacks vs. the John Beck-led Redskins, congrats on that) and anemic (19 sacks) in the other 15 games.
The Seahawks are fascinating. They have a young, ballhawking defense, some real talent at receiver and a confident head coach in Pete Carroll with a chip on his shoulder. All they need now is to settle on a quarterback. It should be easy, right? They signed Matt Flynn in the offseason, gave him $10 million guaranteed. That should be our sign he's the starter. But an interesting thing is happening here, with Tarvaris Jackson getting the first-team reps to start training camp and white-hot (and intriguing) rookie Russell Wilson throwing bolts and determined to win the job from Day One.
Before the Seahawks pick a starter, it's tough to forecast their season. Flynn is a heady leader who has medium arm strength and good touch. He picks his spots well and can throw the fade beautifully. But there's something about Wilson that makes you think Carroll just might be too smitten not to play the kid at some point. It might take an injury. The Seahawks might feel that, all things being equal, they'll go with Flynn off the bat. But don't rule out a training-camp shocker or a midseason bullpen call. Wilson will start in the NFL at some point, and it could be early on.
Past that, there's a lot to like. The secondary featured three Pro Bowl players and a fourth — CB Richard Sherman — who deserved to make it. The defensive line will be bolstered by the additions of Jason Jones inside and situational pass rusher Bruce Irvin. Re-signing DT Red Bryant at value was a coup. DE Chris Clemons, assuming he's cool with his contract and reports on time, is one of the NFL's most underrated players.
The linebackers need a little sorting out, but there is talent there with emerging players K.J. Wright and Bobby Wagner and re-established performer Leroy Hill. Coordinator Gus Bradley is a rising star in coaching circles and could emerge as a head-coaching candidate if he makes this defense a top-five unit this season. It very well could happen.
The offensive line fell apart down the stretch, but there is a lot of ability up front, assuming injuries don't decimate the group again. The run game appears self-sustaining if a backup to Marshawn Lynch arises. They have a lot of big, talented pass catchers at receiver and tight end. The Seahawks should be much better on third downs than they were a year ago, both on offense (ranked 24th) and defense (23rd in sacks). They'd do themselves big favors by cutting back on penalties; accomplish that, and we are talking about a double-digit win team.
All three clubs — the Bears, Bills and Seahawks — have that potential. They could go from missing the playoffs a year ago to winning 10 or more games this season. Winning their divisions would be nice, sure, but a tall order. Even if they don't surpass the Packers, Patriots and 49ers in the victory column, there is plenty of reason to think they could join those teams as postseason entrants this season.

A new study by Professor McMahon at Vanderbilt University has found links between the season of birth and personality. Some astrologers are hailing this study, claiming it proves astrology. But before getting too excited, we should consider what this study, and many others showing a seasonal biological effect, are measuring and what the implications might be for astrology. (Click to join the discussion on Facebook about these studies.)
Kepler MA graduate Maria Mateus has done an excellent job of summarizing the Gauquelin controversy from The Case for Astrology by John Anthony West."Michel Gauquelin was a graduate in statistics and psychology from the Sorbonne who, together with his wife Francoise, conducted the most significant body of statistical research in astrology to date. While his work does not substantiate some canons of traditional astrology, it conclusively vindicates astrology's fundamental premise: that there is a relationship between the planets' positions at the moment of birth and the direction of individual lives."

As we have another eclipse this Sunday, July 11, it seems a good time to consider the Moon's nodes. Astronomically, the nodes are the points where the Moon's orbit around the earth intersects the ecliptic, the apparent path of the Sun (and planets) around the Earth. Whether it is a north or south node is determined by whether the Moon's orbit is has crossed the ecliptic going toward the Northern or Southern Hemisphere. When this intersection of the Moon's orbit and the apparent path of the Sun and planets occurs during a new or full moon, we have an eclipse.
Astrologically, there are different schools of thought with regard to interpretation of the nodes. In general, traditional astrology treated the South node as malefic and the north node as tentatively benefic. Vedic astrologers in India do not like either one. Here are some early interpretations:
Centiloquium of Hermes Trismegistus (1262):
"The North Node with the infortunes denotes terrible mischiefs, for he increases their malice; but with the fortunes he works good, and augments their benignity. But the significations of the Dragon's tail are to be noted the contrary way."
Guido Bonatti (1296-1300 CE).
"Indeed, the Head of the Dragon is naturally a benefic, and of a masculine nature; but by accident it is sometimes a malefic. For its nature is composed of the nature of Jupiter and of the nature of Venus, and this signifies increase … Indeed its Tail is naturally malefic, and of a feminine nature; but if by accident it sometimes becomes a benefic. And its nature is composed of the nature of Saturn and Mars. And it signifies decrease, namely dejection and a fall and poverty, and the decrease of every good thing and every fortune."
Later, the concepts of fate, karma and reincarnation became associated with the nodes. In this view, the south node represents the past and the north node represents this life or what the person should be striving toward. On Molly's Astrology Blog is a good example of the karmic interpretation: "In a karmic sense, the Moon's Nodes represent lessons to be learned in this Earthly incarnation. These lessons almost always have to do with the way we connect with others."
Personally, I seldom use the Nodes in interpretation unless they are within 2 degrees of being conjunct another planet or in a partill aspect. I treat them as a unity, not that you are moving from the South Node to the North node or focusing on one over the other. Always in opposition, they continually present us with the challenge of shining a light on our basic approach to life, our habits and unconscious patterns. How do you use the Nodes? Do you find them useful?
For the first time the Vatican has published one part of the 16th century documents related to Science and natural Philosophy censored by the Inquisition. "[W]hen members of the Inquisition started to study some documents, more specifically the ones related with astrology, they catalogued them as hidden science.

keep letting all those conservative crazy christian ass holes eat all the @ChickfilA they want and they'll die off! #NOsurvivalfortheFAT—

As Twitchy reported earlier, Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day has been a huge success. Supporters of free speech, tasty chicken and religious freedom are turning out in droves.
Even as many progressive tolerance tyrants cling bitterly to their failed Chick-fil-A boycott, some are actually encouraging conservatives to "eat mor chikin" … on the off-chance it might kill them.
Some loving, tolerant liberals hope they won't have to wait long for the waffle fries and chicken to kill off Chick-fil-A supporters.
Hope all you judgmental bigots feeding your fat asses at @ChickfilA choke on their disgusting waffle fries.—

If you go eat at a Chick fil A today, I hope you choke to death on that LGBT hating chicken. #chickfilA—

oh please please let there be a news story about some bible thumper having a heart attack and dying in a chick-fil-a today fingers crossed—

Aw, this one's a real sweetheart. He doesn't want Chick-fil-A patrons to die … as long as they suffer. A lot.
If you eat at Chick-Fil-A today, I hope you choke on it. I don't want you to die, but I want you to choke. A lot.—
Ofay Da Juiceman (@blunted215) August 01, 2012
Others, like "Daily Show" co-creator Lizz Winstead, are more patient. They're willing to wait for heart disease (or fatal diarrhea) to take out the "bigots," aka freedom-loving chicken-eaters.
Yes, go eat at Chick-Fil-A. Clearly you need to create more clogs in passageways to your already hardened heart.—

Sure, hate supporters of Chick-Fil-A but remember that if they keep eating that shitty food, they're going to die sooner anyway. #ChickFilA—

At least we can take comfort in the fact that all the homophobes stuffing their face with Chick fil a will be dead sooner than later.—
Mike P. (@OhGeeMikeP) August 01, 2012
The more I think about all the #bigots at #chickfila today, the more I like it. Please eat it hourly until you have a fucking heart attack.—
Jerad Mallett (@Doinsublime) August 01, 2012
So in 5 years all these hateful, bigoted slobs chowing on Chick-Fil-A today die from an excruciating heart attack? Where's the downside?—
Micheal Stinson (@Symbolman) August 01, 2012
So the GOP is combating gay marriage by raising their cholesterol & increasing their risk of heart attack? Knock yourself out, Huckabee.—
Shawn Simmons (@Shawn_Simmons_) August 01, 2012
This Chick-fil-a Appreciation Day might work after all. Give the bigoted Christians a heart attack for lunch and let love live! #ChickfilA—
Chelsea Duke (@chelseaduke) August 01, 2012
That's an awful lot of hate from people who claim all they want is to "let love live."
Keep it up, tolerance bullies. Keep wishing "Bible thumpers" would choke to death on their peach shakes and Chick-n-Strips and see how much that does for your cause.
Update: it looks like at least one person just wasn't patient enough for heart disease to do its work and instead called in a bomb threat to a Chick-fil-A in Martinsburg, W. Va.

Braxton Woods loved being with his family and riding in his brother's tricked-out car.
He died this week doing what he loved, and now his mother and older brother are remembering the bright and athletic boy.
"It's very difficult, very unexpected," Loretta Woods said about the loss of her son." I'm still in disbelief. It's hard to imagine (since he was just) 13 years old."
A student at the University Academy, he played basketball and participated in other school endeavors, his mother said. He loved to cook and he loved his older brother, 20-year-old Jacobe Woods, she said.
"He enjoyed his life. He enjoyed everything, and he enjoyed riding with his brother," she said. "They worked on cars. They loved cars and basketball. So he was where he loved to be."
The three had been at Bible study Wednesday night. Loretta Woods' two sons left together in Jacobe Woods' 1988 Mustang notch back, and both were wearing their seatbelts.
Police say speed was likely a factor in the crash, but 20-year-old Jacobe Woods says a blown tire caused him to lose control.
Jacobe Woods said the Mustang has a 347 stroker and a five-speed, stage 2 racing clutch. The initial police estimates are that the driver was going at least 40 mph in a 35-mph zone.
But Jacobe Woods insists he wasn't speeding when he crashed.
"They mistakenly thought I was speeding because the car was loud, the pipes, you know a $3,000 pipe," he said.
He said when the tire blew that he overcorrected and crashed into a pole. He said he did everything he could to protect his brother, but he later died from internal injuries.
The force of the impact ripped the car apart. Jacobe Woods broke a vertebrae and his tail bone.
He said he's not focusing on the physical pain, but the devastating loss of his only brother.
"My only little brother is gone," he said. "He loved his family, he loved his church and he was just a really good child."
The outpouring of support is helping mother and son cope with their loss.
"Just being surrounded by family. Our faith. Knowing that God doesn't make mistakes," Loretta Woods said. "You just have to accept that things happen for a reason."

The Minnesota House is planning to vote on a constitutional amendment that would take decisions about their own pay out of their hands.
The House planned a Friday debate on the amendment.
If put on the 2014 ballot and passed by voters, it would create a legislative pay council appointed by the governor and the chief justice of the Supreme Court.
The governor and chief justice would each appoint one member from each of the state's eight congressional districts.
Membership would have to be split equally between the two political parties, and could not include current or former legislators.
The state Senate has passed a bill to give lawmakers their first pay raise in more than a decade, but that has met with criticism.

Being a long time QR fan, I am biased, but simply put, if you loved Metal Health, then you'll want this cd. I'll never understand why they call them extended versions instead of calling them live recordings though. But this is a classic period/lineup Quiet Riot live show. Quality wise, it sounds like a live show, not in a bad way, but an awesome way. Great energy all around. I was too young to see them live back in 1983, so this cd is like a snap shot of what that might have been like. Everybody knows the 2 hit songs here, but in the live show the other tracks like danger zone, run for cover and breathless seem even better than the hits. If you are a fan, you need to get this. If not I would say buy Metal Health first.
Metal Album Reviews[RSS]
Quiet Riot's extended versions cd, captures the classic 1980's lineup performing in support of their Metal Health cd. Most of the songs come from that album, however there are a few songs that I'd never heard before. The performances are good, Quiet Riot extended versions is a first rate live cd, for the money you get more than your money's worth! RIP Kevin!
This is a great sounding live show from early in the Metal Health tour. I believe most of this material was originally used on the Westwood One Radio show back in 1983.
The real bonus with this CD is trio of rare tracks included: "Anytime You Want Me" and "Gonna Have a Riot" are reminiscent of the Rhoads era material and "Danger Zone" is a really great rocker that was a leftover from Metal Health. (It was later a bonus track on the Metal Health remaster).
This Sony/BMG "Extended Version" series is a great way to find some vintage and quality live recordings. The packaging is kind of generic but you can't go wrong with the price.
I took a risk on ordering this due to the fact that there was no information on anyware on the net. I knew they had 2 previous released live songs from Quiet Riot 'Greatest Hits' (released in 1996) and a handful of live songs on their 'Live & Rare Vol. 1′ CD. But, I was not disappointed. Consist of 10 songs, 2 of them (track 9 & 10 listed below) may be the ones that were on the Greatest Hits CD released in 1996. Slick Black Cadillac may be from the reissue/ remaster of 'Metal Health' that was released a few years back and the rest are unreleased live songs that were never officially released. I read years back (during the 80's)that Quiet Riot were going to release a live album. It never happened.
Here is the track listing:
Live from Pasadena Ca. 1983
1. Danger Zone
2. Run For Cover
3. Love's A Bitch
4. Anytime You Want Me
5. Cum On Feel The Noize
6. Slick Black Cadillac (possible from Metal Health reissue/remaster release)
7. Gonna Have A Riot
8. Breathless
Live from Nashville Tennessee 1983
9. Let's Get Crazy (believe this live recording was on Greatest Hits)
10. Bang Your Head (Metal Health) (also believe this was on their Greatest Hits CD)
Anyways, I like it, and I believe anyone that is or was into Quiet Riot and likes live recordings won't be disappointed. I ordered this CD 3 weeks ago, got it last week, and read on the internet this morning that Kevin Dubrow was found dead in his home Sunday Nov. 25th in Vegas. Was hoping it was a sick joke but found out it was true. RIP Kevin

A recent Wall Street Journal article indicated that there were five reasons home prices are rising.
1. Rise in Housing Affordability: Interest rates are ridiculously low. People are jumping in to take advantage of these ultra low rates coupled with still depressed (although rising) housing prices.
2. The Increased Number of Households: It is expected to hit 1 million this year, which in essence is putting a strain on the available inventory. This trend will continue because building has been at historically low levels since 2008. The average number of houses built since stats were being kept each year is well over a million in the United States. Due to our recession, that has dropped in half. What this will mean in the upcoming years is that there will be more demand than inventory, which should allow us to see a healthy recovery.
3. The Rise in Rents: More investors are cashing in on this and more renters are questioning their decision to rent. I have investors now who are willing and able to buy what they choose to in the market due to their enormous piles of cash.
4. Decline of Distressed Properties: It has fallen off during the last year, although by historic standards, it is still high.
5. Inventories of homes for sale are at their lowest level in 50 years. Our market is certainly reflective of that, with multiple offers on properties you wouldn't think would get any offers. Many are riding out the downturn, waiting for prices to return to "normal." Some areas will recover much quicker than others.

The reasons kids look forward to summer are pretty simple -- no school, and no homework, for two months.
But for many children all over the state, being in school every day also means getting full meals in the school cafeteria -- and when they're home for the summer, that's more food that mom and dad have to provide.
But thanks to the Texas Department of Agriculture and some federal reimbursements, children all over the state are able to continue eating at their schools all summer long.
This is the first year Pine Tree ISD in Longview is holding a summer nutrition program -- they started last week, and were feeding almost 100 children by week's end.
"We see the need in the community that our children aren't getting the nutritious meals that they need, so this gave us an opportunity to meet those needs of the community," said Michelle Mitchell, Pine Tree ISD's Child Nutrition Director.
Pine Tree ISD's program is part of a Seamless Summer Feeding Program created by the federal government for schools to continue their school meal service into the summer.
"Pine Tree is over 50 percent free and reduced lunch, so the need was there, and this is just our answer to that need," Mitchell said.
Mitchell said the Seamless Summer program isn't income-based -- any child between the ages of one and 18 can come eat breakfast and lunch for free.
"We're not district-based, we're children-based," she said. "So any child, whether they're from Longview, Gladewater, any of our area schools, they can come see what Pine Tree's about and eat with us."
According to the Texas Department of Agriculture, more than 21 million meals were served at more than 5,000 sites just like Pine Tree's last summer -- and it's all fulfilling a need Mitchell says isn't new.
"I think it's just coming more to the forefront. I think more people are getting involved in really seeing the need," she said. "The children can learn better when they don't have to worry about their stomachs growling."
And Mitchell hopes the fact that lunch money isn't necessary will bring hundreds, if not thousands, of kids through their kitchen this summer.
"Hopefully as parents get to know that we're here, that instead of going out to eat, they can just bring them here," she said.
Pine Tree ISD isn't the only local school that has a Seamless Summer Program -- we know that Tyler, Gilmer, Gladewater, Lufkin, and Longview ISDs also have programs, as well as the East Texas Food Bank.
Parents, you can call 211 to find the location nearest you to send your kids for meals. Those meals are free, and as Ms. Mitchell said, your kids don't have to be enrolled in that school district for them to eat at that school during the summer.
Pine Tree ISD is serving breakfast and lunch through August 2. Breakfast will be served from 8:00 to 8:30 a.m. and lunch will be served from 12:00 to 12:30 p.m. From June 11 to July 17, excluding July 4, meals will be served Monday - Friday at Pine Tree Primary School. From July 18 - August 2, meals will be served Monday - Thursday at Pine Tree Elementary School.
For a full list of locations serving free or reduced-price meal programs this summer, visit the Texas Department of Agriculture's Summer Nutrition Program's website.

So, I've been meaning to make this post for some time now. Matt and I separated back in November, which might help explain to you why posts have been so sparse.
The girls are living with Matt who loves and cares for them like no one else could. And although I do miss them TERRIBLY, but I go and visit them every couple weeks.
So, for the grand show!
Here are a couple interesting photos and then a slide show!!
And here's a Slide show of all the photos I took:
(FYI, I got a new camera!! Canon 7D! It's amazing, hope you like the new product!)
