Gov. Rick Perry's Remarks At III Corps Deployment Casing Ceremony
I am honored to be with the finest fighting force on the face of the earth: The members of the United States Military. With this day marking the first overseas deployment of the III Corps headquarters flag since World War II, I am reminded of the great history of the "Phantom Corps." Dating back to the battlefields of World War I – where III Corps was formed – to the many operations of the latter-half of the 20th Century, the men and women of III Corps have fought valiantly, served honorably, and stood tall for freedom.
Of course, it was a March day in 1945 when the world learned of the special soldiers of the Phantom Corps, as the members of the 9th Armored Division engaged in a daring mission and miraculously captured the bridge at Remagan – an historic accomplishment that gave Allied Forces a toehold east of the Rhine River, and accelerated the drive into the heart of Germany.
Today you embark on another historic mission. As you go forth, you can do so with clarity of conscience and strength of conviction because you are serving a great cause: To make the world free of tyranny, free of terror. The world is a safer place for the courage, bravery and sacrifices of the men and women who wear our nation's uniform.
In the last two years, the American Armed Forces and our allies have liberated Afghanistan from Taliban rule, captured hundreds of Al Qaeda terrorists, freed Iraq from a brutal dictator and dragged Saddam Hussein out of his spider hole. And when that tyrant emerged from his hiding place, I am proud to say it was Fort Hood's 4th I.D. that passed along the president's greetings. At the same time, our victories have come at a great cost – a cost borne in lives lost and dreams vanquished. Hundreds of your fellow servicemen and women offered the ultimate sacrifice, giving up their future so millions of others could once again believe in the future. We hope and pray that none of you will be called to do the same; that God will keep you safe and out of harm's way; and that you will return home to the loving arms of your families after performing your duty with great pride and professionalism.
As President Bush has stated, freedom is God's gift to mankind. As members of the United States Military, you are the protectors of that gift. Yours' is the highest of callings – a duty upon which the freedom of billions depends, a duty you do well.
Today we are keenly aware that the mission must go on. The War on Terror must go forward. And leading the way will be none other than the most modernized force in our military - III Corps. Be safe. Be strong, and return home soon. Thank you. God bless you, and God bless America.

"Race technology for the road with adjustable compression and rebound damping"
State-of-the-art motorsport technology for proven performance on the streets. The independently adjustable compression and rebound damping allows for custom driving set-ups. The exclusive KW patented system has dual-level valves to provide the adjustment of the rebound damping (comfort) and the compression damping (driving dynamics) in the low-speed range. High-speed settings for driving comfort are preset by KW engineers.
Based on vehicle specifications, the rebound damping is adjusted by a spindle at the end of the piston rod. Mainly, the traction phase (rebound) controls car body vibrations and influences handling and comfort in the low-speed damping range. By using the traction phase adjustment, the vehicle can be fine tuned to the requirements of the driver. Moreover, driving behavior can be regulated from comfortably rolling to sporty and tense with improved road holding characteristics.
The compression phase adjustment is carried out at the lower end of the shock absorber via KW�s patented multi-purpose valve. The large number of pre-set parameters on this valve allow for a wide range of adjustment for individual use. The unique low-speed compression adjustment distinguishes this technology from any other. In this compression range, the driving behavior of the vehicle is drastically influenced. An increase of the damping power supports the vehicle already during compression and therefore avoids rolling and pitching. The directional stability is significantly improved.
*Not for suspensions with strut modifications (exchange struts).

Beatlemania In America Turns 50
Friday marked the 50th anniversary of The Beatles first trip to the United States, just a few weeks after releasing Meet The Beatles. John, Paul, George, and Ringo arrived to pandamonium as screaming crowds welcomed them exiting the plane. Even their first news conference got off to a rough start as you can see below.
From that day on, The Bealtes took the states by storm. To date, they have sold 177 million albums in America, over 40 million more than the next best selling artist Elvis Preseley. Radio stations clamored to be THE Beatles station, including WABC in New York calling themselves "W-A-Beatles-C!" Murray The K at WINS dubbed himself on-air as "The Fifth Beatle", a name he claimed to receive from either George or Ringo.
Their impact continues today and top musicians celebrated the 50th anniversary all last week. Dave Letterman, who broadcasts in the Ed Sullivan Theater where the Beatles made their American television debut February 9th, 1964, welcomed Broken Bells, Sting, Lenny Kravitz, The Flaming Lips with John's son Sean Lennon, and India Arie throughout the week to cover Beatle classics. Take a look!
Broken Bells "And I Love Her"
Sting "Drive My Car"
Lenny Kravitz "Get Back"
Flaming Lips ft. Sean Lennon "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds"
Lauryn Hill "Something"

The eagle-eyed among you might have spotted this already, but for those who had to blink at some point yesterday – MOO's launched Business Cards! As so many of you have asked for the MOO MiniCard magic just that little bit bigger, we felt duty bound to indulge you.
MOO Business Cards are a similar size to standard business cards, but with some very cool differences:
Unlike lots of business cards, MOO gives you the option of a different image on every one.
Using magic technology we've decided to call 'PrintFinity', you can have a different photo, logo or design on every card. So, when people ask you what you do, you can show them – everything! It's a little portfolio in your pocket, a product catalogue, a trading card, anything you like.
You can buy your Business Cards in super-short runs
We're an experienced bunch at MOO HQ. We've all worked in different companies before, and we still have the business cards to prove it. The traditional way is to buy business cards in batches of 250, 500, even 1000 or more, and no matter how hard you network, its impossible to get through so many before something changes – your phone number, your job title or even the company you work for. We realised if we still have stacks of old cards sitting about, you probably have too.
So, we give you the option to buy in smaller batches of 50:
- it's more economical (much less waste)
- it gives you the chance to update your cards as you update your products or your details
- it's greener – even if you're using virgin stock, at least you're not throwing it away!
And talking of 'green' – there are now two paper stock options available
We're slightly obsessed with paper at MOO, and take a great deal of care looking for the best paper, with the best feel, print quality and outstanding credentials. We've decided on two different stocks for our Business Cards:
MOO 'Classic' – which is sustainably sourced and elemental chlorine free. Matt-laminated, it has a smooth and sturdy feel. It's the same stock you've seen and loved on MiniCards.
MOO 'Green' – which is 100% recycled, 100% recyclable and biodegradeable. It's totally chlorine free, uncoated, crisp white, and prints nicer than any other recycled paper we've seen. (And we've seen a lot.)
The cards come beautifully packaged
Every pack of cards comes with a free Business Card holder. Designed by MOO, the box is made of recycled pulp board and fits in a briefcase or bag. We've even included two (recycled) dividers too, so as you empty the box of your own cards, you can fill it up with the ones you're given, without mixing them up. (Another problem we've had ourselves, that we thought it would be good to fix).
So, there you have it. MOO Business Cards – as nice as MiniCards, but bigger, and a little bit different. We like them, and we hope you'll like them too.
Oh! And if you want to see what other people have been doing, check out our ideas pages. See what other people have made, and how you could use the cards yourself.
Hi, I was wondering if we could have the readymade option for business cards as we have for minicards. I would really love to purhase the business cards but I do not have my own images. I'd be happy if Moo can help out prospective small business owners like me who'd prefer something fast and easy to use.
Great addition to the MOO line!
hoorah! thanks for answering all our prayers with this great product that I'm sure will be great!
Love the mini cards and I'll be ordering your business cards right away. Love the look and they even feel diffrent than the other options out there. I just had 500 cards done earlier by another company but they'll be going into a drawer.
Nice – but annoyingly short of a full deck of 52 (54 including jokers)!
I am curious if they can be ordered in batches larger than 50?
I tend to burn through 50 cards in a week, so that wouldn't be terribly economical for me. Maybe more like 150 or 200?
Sweet stuff though. Been waiting for this ^_^. Now I want to see the text ones! I have a billion and one quotes I want to hand to people ^_^.
Thank you moo! You've fulfilled my moo dreams
Thats cool … up to now I've wanted to try ye out but just knew the mini cards weren't really for my customers so the full size coupled with small quantities is perfect.
The portfolio shots on the back of the card is a cool idea as well. You seem to have the good ideas so I don't have to
Now this is what i've been waiting for, ever since I saw these, I thought cool, but they are a little too small. Now I can and will use them when I go to order my next set.
Now I just need to think about a few things to put on the back !
So exciting! I ordered mine as soon as I got the e-mail and will be patiently waiting to get them and start handing them out to people! I originally wanted to pick like 5 of my favorite pictures, so I did not have to decide which ones to part with every time I hand one out
Very very cool guys. I ordered a set on virgin stock. As soon as I have these I'll order on recycled. I've got lot's of clients that this solution would be good for and I love designing for this small format. It's like patisserie for print. Anyone care for a petit fours?
When can I design both sides?
You guys are killing me with every single new product! MOO is so addicting..
I just ordered a bunch of new business cards
I love these – the mini's were the wrong proportion for most of my work but these look really fabulous.
Have you thought of perhaps making them a tiny bit bigger? The ATC/ACEO market has only one rule – the size at 2.5×3.5inches – I'd love to use moo cards instead of printing them myself. I'm sure the trading that is happening with the mini moos would expand if they were ATC/ACEO sized
I made my order early this and they arrived this morning, wow, I thought the mini-cards were cool but these full size business cards are the business. I love the holder that they come in, I can't wait to start giving them out, excellent product and speedy service.
Look forward to ordering these as my minicards are just about gone. Any chance of updating the format guide with a guide for the new business cards? The mini-card guide was perfect as my cards ended up exactly how I wanted them.
This is an interesting service but pretty worthless if your website can't process an order. While I'd like to support moo and order some cards it's clear that as your website can't link to flickrstreams that this is not going to happen anytime soon. For the past 5 days the only thing I can get when I try to link my flickrstream to moo.com is this: Oops, sorry, something untoward has occurred!
An email has been sent to our hardworking developer bees.
It would be very helpful if you could tell us what you were doing when this error occurred?
Love your view on ease of purchase and all that. Great products too.
But seriously, why no pdf support?? I would order a dozen business card packs to myself and clients right away!
I would really love to order a pack but as much as I try I cannot get my logo to display correctly. It always comes up too big and goes out of the card's border no matter how much I try to size it down using the "minus".
Even if I upload a very small image, it comes up all pixellated but still too big.
My cards arrived today, and I'm very pleased with the results!
Actually I'd rather not give them away, haha.
Thanks MOO!
Mine came and I'm now a huge fan! What other goodies can I dream up??? I'm going to go through my first order way fast and be back for more soon!
Just watched a live un-boxing of Moo b-cards at Qik. Here is the link: http://qik.com/video/129039
Great product but can't get the logo to upload proerly as Ugo describes. Uploading at 300dpi, 4.5cm wide for landscape logo – system says image is too small but displays it huge and wont then shrink…
thanks Denise – will have a play – let us know when it's fixed
btw will you also be adding full image upload for both sides? I'd like to use my own designs for both sides – is this possible? I'm trying out the free linkedin offer, but would happily pay to do full colour prints both sides… thanks
Hi There, I would love to buy the business cards; however, I keep getting the error on page icon. What is up with that!!! I really love your products and want to use your service again.
Hi there Barbi
Sorry to hear you're having problems with this. We can't seem to recreate your issue, and didn't have any other reported problems with the site over the weekend – could you let me know what the issue is and what operating system and browser you're using? We'll see if we can work out what's up.
I am frustrated that moo.com does not have a contact phone number! Sometimes it is hard trying to explain my problem via email and I don't want to have to wait 24hrs for a response! Its absolutely ridiculous and poor customer service. The emailed question/problem was responded to with some generic automated answer (or so it seemed). My question was not even addressed! This site works well when everything runs smoothly, but when it doesn't I can get a live person on the phone to help.
Aisha France
I completely agree with Aisha. I just received my cards today and they are printed badly (text truncated at the bottom) – but there is not way to call customer support. I need the cards by thursday but I have to wait 2 days to tell somebody what the problem is. And this is a re-order not a new one!
Hi, I emailed yesterday and still have gotten no response.
I just downloaded your PSD business card template. A standard USA business card size is 2″ x 3.5″. Why is this PSD file not those dimensions? I understand there is bleed but the horizontal length is not even 3.5″ with bleed.
I'm still actually awaiting the arrival of my stickers although the shipping status says shipped. Please help me, I needed them last week and do not want to reorder.
Hi. I contacted Moo once before about this, and got no response. My contact-info side on my mini cards looks fine in every stage right up until the last preview, where it is off-center. I have no idea how to fix this, as it seems to be correct right up until the end. I emailed customer service again 24 hours ago, and still have not received a response. This is incredibly frustrating, and I surely hope that if i do in fact get a response, it won't be something automated. I'm really excited to get the finished product, as I think it will be exactly what I'm looking for; I'm just sad that getting help is proving to be so difficult.
Hi everyone! I just wanted to make sure to hop back on the board with an update. After posting here, Moo got me in touch with a customer service rep named David who was incredibly helpful and patient with me. He even gave me some tips on why he wouldn't think my design would turn out the way I wanted it, postponed my order so that I could get my image redesigned, and then put it through a few days later after I gave him the new one. I just got my mini-cards in the mail and am in LOVE with them! So thank you David and Moo, and to everyone else, have faith in their customer service because I couldn't have asked for better. There must have simply been some snafu in communication with my first email…so have faith and order some mini-cards, because they are pretty sweet.
Hello everyone. I am displeased with MOO.com I ordered my cards about 2weeks ago and I received my order today the problem is that it isn't what I paid for. I paid for 100 business cards and only received 50 as you can imagine it has caused me quite an inconvenience and I'm really upset. Most of the cards I did receive had scratches on the picture side too which takes professionalism out of the cards..at least I'd say. I hope they Email me back ASAP.
Hi Christopher,
Sorry to hear your order wasn't quite what you expected, if you give Customer Service a shout they'll be able to help you out: http://www.moo.com/help/contact-us.html

Online Education Model Shapes Tomorrow's Leaders
CLINTON, Iowa, March 14, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- South Dakota's first secretary of the Department of Veterans Affairs, a global Fortune 100 company's top executive, and a Colorado chief of police have something in common – all three turned to Ashford University's 21st century online education model to advance their careers and become leaders in their fields.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120802/AQ50928-INFO-g)
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130228/LA68969LOGO)The online model allows students to enhance their education with accessibility and flexibility. Ashford University uses innovative technology to provide online degree programs, with the mission of developing foundational leadership values, such as self-worth, creativity, interdependence, service, integrity and effectiveness. The mission resonated with Larry Zimmerman, a top enlisted member of the South Dakota National Guard. He became the first official secretary of the state's new Department of Veterans Affairs on Jan. 9, 2013, just two days after completing his bachelor's degree in business and organizational management from Ashford University and, coincidentally, on his 59th birthday. In his new leadership role, Zimmerman oversees more than 100 employees and leads the department responsible for ensuring South Dakota's 70,000 veterans are receiving the right benefits and opportunities. When asked what led him to pursue higher education after 29 years in the Army National Guard, Zimmerman said he aspired to set an example for his five grandchildren. "I had to show my grandkids the importance of an education," he said. "Considering my extensive travel with the Army National Guard, I wouldn't have been able to get a degree without the accessibility of online education. It worked for me and my career. Recently, I utilized my education to develop a mission statement and write a strategic plan for the new department."

Alumni dinner to honor Diane Dusini, class of '87
March 12, 2013
PORTLAND, Maine – Diane Dusini, a highly respected divorce lawyer and president elect of the Maine State Bar Association, will be honored April 11 at the annual dinner of the Maine Law Alumni Association. The event begins with a cocktail hour at 6 p.m. at the Harraseeket Inn in Freeport.
Dusini, class of 1987, will receive the association's Distinguished Service Award in recognition of her significant contributions to the legal profession and her longstanding support of the University of Maine School of Law.
Over the years, Dusini has taken time away from her busy practice and home life to serve as President of the Maine Law Alumni Association, as a Class Agent, and as a reliable participant in the Law School's Mentor-Mentee Program. Dusini also has served as an adjunct professor at Maine Law, teaching family law to the next generation of lawyers. Dusini and her family have graciously established the Philip M. Dusini Scholarship Fund, to provide help to Maine Law students with demonstrated financial need.
Maine Law is fortunate that Dusini, a native of Keene, N.H., decided to stay in Portland to practice law after she graduated. Dusini began her career as a tax lawyer, and later focused on family law, specifically the tax and business implications of divorce. She is a partner at the firm of MittelAsen LLC. Dusini is certified by the Institute for Divorce Financial Analysts as a Certified Divorce Planner and is listed in "Best Lawyers in America."
Dusini has served on various committees related to Maine's court system, and she is a frequent speaker on topics in family law. As a volunteer in her community, Dusini has worked with incarcerated teens at the Long Creek Youth Development Center. She has also served as president of the Board of Directors of the Kennebec Girl Scout Council. Dusini maintains an active lifestyle through running, surfing and triathlons.

News Flash!
Our inspirational friends over at All Things Horror, have again worked hard to put together an amazing night of indie horror. This time, the focus is on up-and-coming female filmmakers within the genre. And what makes me just as equally excited about the event itself, is that they chose the remarkable film The Commune as their main feature.
The following is a press release regarding the event:
'Wednesday June 2nd, All Things Horror proudly presents their first Women in Horror program as part of their monthly film series. This month, we're focusing exclusively on titles that have been written and helmed by some of the most exciting new female voices in horror. All Things Horror recognizes and celebrates the envelope pushing work each of these talented creators have brought to their movies.
Our feature presentation is The Commune, written and directed by Elizabeth Fies. Featuring a shocking climax that will linger with the viewer long after leaving the theater, The Commune tells the tragic story of sixteen year old Jenny (Chauntal Lewis). She's been sent for the summer to stay on her estranged father's hippy quasi-religious compound. Underneath the granola lifestyle, sinister and terrible events are in store for the young girl. Fans of atmospheric, psychological mind benders such as The Wicker Man and Don't Look Now will appreciate Ms. Fies directorial debut.
Screening alongside our feature presentation is an outstanding short films program. We're featuring a pair of short movies from Montreal film maker Maude Michaud: Snuff and Hollywood Skin. Monica Puller of Gonzorific films brings us her latest short Gimme. Finally, Izabel Grondin's powerful and disturbing short film Fantasy completes our program.
All Things Horror Presents is an ongoing monthly film series at the Somerville Theater, hosted by Mike Snoonian and Chris Hallock of www.allthingshorroronline.com. The series kicked of this past January with the goal of highlighting horror's brilliant new creative and independent voices. The All Things Horror film series strives to bring the weird and wonderful things that go bump in the night to the big screen in our little corner of the world.
The night starts at 7pm and tickets are available at the door for $5.'
So if you're in the Massachusetts area on June 2nd, put down your bowl of chowdah and head on out to what I'm sure will be a fun filled event. I mean seriously, it's only $5. When's the last time you had a ton o' fun for $5? Donkey shows in Tijuana notwithstanding.
Remember that great little indie slasher film that I reviewed a few weeks back? Well it's getting a proper DVD release. I know the sub genre is oft maligned because its been accused of running out of new and fresh ideas. But The Devil Within brings the goods with an original story and a unique way in which it handles an important plot device that is essential to slasher films: the red herring.
The film is available via pre-order (release date of June 29th) via the following retailers:
- Amazon
- Target
- Best Buy

The Ceremony (2008)
Fear 5/5
Gore 0/5
Entertainment 5/5
Creepiness 5/5
Rolling the proverbial dice that is my cable's On Demand TV service, I decided to fork over my $4.99 for this indie film after watching the trailer. I'm glad I did.
The film starts off with a recently graduated college student, coming home from what appears to be a mid afternoon workout. He share's the house with a couple of roommate buddies but on this afternoon, no one's home. As he goes room to room to verify the packing progress of his flat mates (they have to be out soon), he comes upon one with an old book on the floor, encircled by a group of lighted candles. Puzzled by the grouping, he picks up the book and flips through it, reading a few of the passages. The book contains a ceremony by wherein the participant (if successful), has the opportunity to achieve a heightened sense of personal enlightenment. But of course, it comes at a cost.
Laying down the book and thinking nothing more about what he just read, he carries on with his day which consists of: laundry, packing, talking to friends on the phone about a party that night and with a doctor who's offering him his first full-time gig. Where some may find the mundane tasks boring, the film keeps you intrigued when these actions are performed with a creepy soundtrack that is interspersed. It keeps you on edge as the anticipation builds with an impending doom-like quality. Afterall, its not hard to surmise that upon opening the book and reciting a few lines, our main character has unwittingly began something that has yet to be finished.
As late day gives way to night, strange occurances begin to take place: bumps and thumps, the sounds of people walking through the house, slamming doors, furniture capsizing and crashing, shadowy figures being caught out of the corner of his eye. At first thinking its the neighboring frat house playing one of its usual pranks, our central figure begins to seriously worry when he finds himself locked in the house and voices coming out of the upstairs room.
The film culminates in a confrontation with a man dressed in white. A familiar incarnation of an evil which has taken one of its many forms. Our central character becomes conflicted by the choice he must make as he is informed that he must complete the ceremony which he himself started.
A pleasantly frightening surprise, The Ceremony may be low on budget. But its high on what makes a great horror film: atmosphere and suspense combined with a genuine feeling of fear and entrapment. The fact that the film was shot in one locale (the house), further lent itself to the feeling of no way out for our main character. I will say that this film is definitely of the slow burn variety (think Paranormal Activity or The House of the Devil) and chances are, if you are not a fan of this style of film, then you may not like it. My only criticism of the film is that it does rely on the haunted house schtick one too many times and it does get repetitious. But once the intensity wratchets up as the film nears its third act, it plows full steam ahead and devolves into complete and utter madness.
More information about The Ceremony can be found here. You can also check out the trailer via the site. I had a hard time trying to find it on YouTube.

I'm Baaaaaaack!
Before we set sail on our honeymoon, I was bummed to find out that one of the greatest heavy metal singers of all-time lost his battle with cancer. Even though he barely measures eye level with me, Ronnie James Dio had a voice that could level mountains. I never had the privilege of meeting him but by all accounts, he was as genuine and kind hearted as they come. And let's not forget, he invented the hand sign we all associate with this genre of music:
And and (I'll probably draw a lot of flack for this), he recorded THE best Black Sabbath record ever. Don't get me wrong, Ozzy is Black Sabbath. But Heaven and Hell is their strongest record by far in no small part to the better muscianship and the amazing singing of RJD.
And now for some highlights of the past week's events and festivities:
- I was so nervous before the wedding that I almost passed out. My buddy advised me that when I saw my bride walking down the aisle, it would all go away and that I'd focus strictly on her. And that it would feel like you are the only two people in the room. He was absolutely right. She floored me with how beautiful she looked.
- The reception was off the heezy fo' sheezy. Open bar + Italians + Mexicans + Jews + Catholics = people being carried out of the reception at the end of the night. Good times indeedy.
- Cruises are incredible. If you have the time and the means, I highly advise that you take one. Not only do you get to visit exotic lands and experience lots of different cultures in such a short amount of time, it is literally the most amazing people watching experience. Ever. Physical requirements should be mandatory when buying certain types of bathing suits. And banana hammocks and speedos are NEVER a good idea. Even if you're European.
- After day 3 and being about 20 Mai Tais deep, I wondered why no one has ever made a good slasher film on a cruise ship before. Just think about it: around 2,200 potential victims, you are out in the middle of the Atlantic (or other body of water) and thousands of miles away from civilization. Mix alcohol, sex, douchey people of all sorts and you have all the hallmarks and potentially interesting plot devices one could ever dream of (i.e. ridiculous cruise shows, a myriad of no-talent entertainers at all times of the day, plenty of creepy wait staff and custodians, etc.).
Anywhos, I'm glad to be back. Thanks for all the well wishes on the blog and the one's posted on Facebook. You are all amazing.
Look for some great posts coming up including the winner of our fantastical contest.

My Video Store Memories And Creepy VHS Covers
You may have noticed lately that some of us horror bloggers have taken to sharing some of our fond memories associated with going to the video store when we were young ankle biters. I had a different experience than most when I was a kid. You see, at the very end of the long aisle of videos, nearing the curtained off nudie section, was the row of 'No no.' My parents would take me and allow me to rent the latest in Disney fare or the safe PG flick but never, under any circumstances was I ever allowed to rent a horror flick.
I guess I should take a minute to describe my household a little growing up. I did so in one that loved horror films but because of the questionable content, I was not allowed to watch them. So I'd pretend to go to bed at night and sneak out into the living room and hid in the dark while my folks watched one. Or I'd luck out and sleep over at a friends house who's parents didn't really care what we watched (thank you Mr. and Mrs. Keeley!). But by and large, my real exposure and 'awakening' to horror films didn't come until I was in high school.
So when rental time came at the video store, and my dad was checking out the latest action flick or sappy romantic comedy for my mom, I'd sneak a peak down the row of horror films. I'd get that rush you get when you know you shouldn't be doing something combined with being genuinely freaked out from some of the VHS covers. These my friends are the all-time, burned to my brain, scarred for life, VHS covers.
The Company of Wolves
Just look at it. A wolf's snout coming out of some dudes face hole. And everyone's heard the story of Little Red Riding Hood by the time I first saw the cover to this film. Which made me flip my shit even more.
The Evil Dead II
A skull face staring at you from the corner of his peepers. Forget the fact that the movie was decidedly more 3 Stooges than the original. For a kid going completely by the merits of a DVD cover, this one was super duper creepalicious.
This one always reminded me of the Pirates of the Carribean ride at Disneyland. In particular, the talking skullhead warning you of a certain impending doom. Scared the beejesus out of me--both the ride and movie cover.
The Gates of Hell AKA City of the Living Dead
A green skinned, rotting ghouls face was all it took to freak me out. And that one eyed look of crazy only further wratched up the creep factor.
Halloween III: Season of the Witch
With that demonic looking face in the back drop and kids partaking in the annual All Hallows Eve ritual, that was all it took to rattle this little kid's nerves.
What are some of your favorite, most creeptastic VHS video covers?

Sledgehammer (1983)
Fear 0/5
Gore 2/5
Entertainment 5/5
Creepiness 1/5
T&A Factor: 3/5
This is about as low budget as you can get folks. Shot on video, Sledgehammer is a supernatural slasher tale. It contains the requisite cast of amoral types (well, minus one virginal girl): a muscle bound jock (who's the SAME muscle bound jock in the AMAZING Aerobicide AKA Killer Workout), his rowdy trio of buddies, two slutbag friends, the aforementioned virgin and a partridge in a pear tree.
So before we get to our gaggle of goofy kids on their way out to a cabin in the middle of the California wilderness, we come find out about the history surrounding the hideaway. Apparently a whorish mom rendezvoused with her lover at the house a few years back. To get some adequate alone time, she locked her son in the upstairs bedroom. Well apparently little *Timmy didn't like it and busted out, grabbing a sledgehammer and taking down mom and her gentleman lover.
Now cut to our kids arriving at the house, we are introduced to the muscle bound jock boy and his saving herself 'til they get married girlfriend. In starts a long drawn out slow motion sequence of them frolicking through the countryside. Apparently the director thought that slow motion heightened emotional effect because its used REPEATEDLY throughout the film. This happens to be the funniest exampled, as the boyfriend uses the girl's head as a beer coaster.
Cue softcore porn music:
So our kids get to partying and boozing it up. And when I say boozing it up I mean I think these kids booze it up in this flick more than any other boozing kids in the history of boozing, trashtastic horror films. It's un-booz-lievable. They hit it straight from the bottle, so much so that it makes them fall over in their chair:
Act like a gay cowboy:
They even booze it up hardcore at the lunch hour (hey its 5 o'clock somewhere right?), so much so that it propels them into a vicious food fight:
They booze it up some more before holding a seance to resurrect the dead spirits of the couple that are believed to be still residing in the house:
Despite my genuine concern for their health, they carry on and muscle boy is in on a joke with his buddy as they pump voices via a rigged speaker throughout the house during the seance.
But the jokes on them as someone starts picking them off starting with our merry little wanking prankster!
A couple of the kids get to banging headboards and they fall victim to a figure wielding a sledgehammer.
So who is it? Is it the traumatized spirit of the little boy who'd been locked up by his whorish mother? Well yes and no. You see, little *Timmy is running around knocking off the group of alcoholics but as both himself and his transmorph-a-sized, big burly man self. Seriously. He goes Optimus Prime right in front of you but not before a healthy bitch slap to our muscle bound boy. No screen capture will do this justice. Watch this instead:
After a final standoff, the saving herself girl and her boyfriend narrowly escape the confines of the old house. And little *Timmy is shown in the upstairs room, looking out and waiting for his next set of victims.
Totally low budget and a ton o' goofy, nonsensical fun. Check out this forgotten slasher classic.
*Name made up to protect the young and not so innocent. Really, his name is never mentioned.

Meet The Horror Bloggers: Paperback Horror
Paperback Horror steps out of the darkness and into the light:
'Why the hell do you read those things?' That's the question everybody seems to be asking me these days, usually while they cast sneering glances at whatever paperback I happen to have in hand. The short answer? Because I like them. Because I can.
The long answer is a little more complex. After an introduction to horror at a young age I became entranced with everything dark, and soon Clive Barker's Hellraiser really set me on the path to horror. When I found out that Hellraiser was based on a book I was amazed and quickly delved into Barker's other work, starting with The Books of Blood.
Many years later, after dabbling in art and movies, I had not only amassed a very respectable collection of nasty and/or obscure films, but also honed my style in terms of painting and started an interesting collection of books.
After getting married and having kids, I no longer had as much time to watch endless streams of movies or hunker down and paint a beautiful yet unsettling picture. It was the perfect time to reintroduce myself to some of my favorite authors, and I trolled through my books seeking the mildewing pages of my youth. Writers like Poppy Z. Brite and Clive Barker jumped out and reminded me that beauty and brutality can walk hand in hand. Richard Laymon broke all the taboos that I had previously thought unbreakable, and Jack Ketchum gave me a panic attack on the subway. Brian Keene put the zombie back on the map, and Bryan Smith brought the slasher back to form. Gord Rollo made me believe that Canadians still have a shot in the horror business. But most of all, Steve Vernon made me believe that I was worthy enough to join them all in the world of writing, even if it is just in my little corner of the blogosphere.
Above and beyond everybody else, my beautiful and outrageously supportive wife has been the reason behind my every move. She was the only who told me to grab a book to occupy my time while in transit instead of staring at the wall, and she was the one who told me to venture outside the box. She continues to support me through our joint venture - Kinderscares - and with my own little pet project - Paperback Horror, where I read and review my favorite paperback horror novels.
So why do I read these things? Because I love them. They take me away from everything else, to a faraway place, to worlds where I can be scared, grossed out, entranced, or just plain entertained any time I want. And I write for Paperback Horror to give back to the authors who write what they love - to let them know that someone out there is listening.

I only ask that you respect the viewpoints and passions of others and see this for what it truly is: to promote bloggers you may have not yet heard about and to help foster relationships with the community at large.
So if you want to be profiled on this here interwebs blog, shoot me an email: email@example.com. And be on the lookout Monday for our first post.
P.S. If someone would like to take a stab at designing a logo for the feature, there will be a cool 'reward' involved.

Lake Mungo (2008)
Fear 5/5
Gore 0/5
Entertainment 5/5
Creepiness 5/5
Right off the bat, Lake Mungo adds a sense of credibility and realism with its cinema verite style of film. It adds a deeper sense of realism and automatically invests me emotionally as a viewer. I feel the plight of a family as they come to terms and explain everything leading up to and including the death of their daughter. Of course you need some great performances to draw you in and make that emotional connection. The entire cast is nothing short of amazing.
As mentioned, from the very start, we are thrown into the suffering plight of a grieving family. Their daughter Alice was swimming in a lake during a family trip and inexplicably went missing. Days later, her body was found and death by drowning was claimed to have been the cause.
After the family recounts the trip and the eventual horrific discovery, they begin to talk about strange occurances which seemed to happen almost immediately after their daughter's death. Noises in the house, sounds coming from their daugther's room and figures appearing in the hall, but no one wanted to believe that it was their loving daughter who'd come back.
Their son, who was incredibly close with the Alice, took up photography as a hobby and as a means of coping. After snapping a few pictures around the house, he noticed one day that the visage of his sister appeared in the family's backyard. Anxious to get more proof, he positioned cameras around the house to capture any sort of occurrance or supernatural happening.
Sure enough, events were captured on tape. But after further review the family comes to find that the brother staged everything. He couldn't come to terms with the loss and this acting out was a sort of coping mechanism. But when occurances keep happening after the exposure of the brother, the family begins to suspect that maybe the daughter really has come back to tell them something.
At this point in the film it takes a complete 180 shift in direction that you don't see coming at all. And if you do, I want the winning lottery numbers for this next week. We find out what plagued young Alice and racked her with guilt. And as this shocking turn of events unfolds, it leads into one of the scariest moments EVER committed to film. I won't divulge for those of you who haven't seen it but the whole concept was brilliant and unlike anything I've ever seen before. And it rattled me beyond belief. So much so that I had to turn on just about every light in my house. I was quesy for hours.
Lake Mungo is a genuinely scary film and one of the most original I've ever seen: both in execution and concept. I recommend this high likelihood of a pants shitting film.

Best Metal Moments In Horror History
For this installment, comes the MOST metal opening of any film EVER made. Of course, I'm talking about the amazing intro to Zombieland.
Say what you will about Metallica, their first four records are the best first four records from ANY metal band. Ever. Once this kicked in, I had the metal horns in the air. Sure, I got some weird stares from folks in the theater, but the devil horns were well warranted. I mean, what more could you want? Zombies chasing down victims, zombie strippers, and Metallica? My head nearly exploded.
Due to funky YouTube and music copyright laws, the below was actually spliced together and does not contain the full intro.

Oily.... Had to be diluted to work!
May 31, 2014
Reviewer: tiffany l from OH United States
When I first used this product I ranted about how it was an expensive whipped oil. As a conditioner it did not soften my mostly type 4 dry hair. It left no lingering effect shortly after being rinsed out. As a leave in on it's own it did not moisturize my hair. This product only gets an average rating because I decided to dilute it. Once diluted it worked as a good leave in. As expensive as it is it should not have to be mixed w/ something for it to work.

It's not secret that 4b/4c hair battles dryness. Well this product along with all the others made my hair feel like butter. It smells great I don't know what kind of magial fairy dust they are using, but keep it up. I am a customer for life. Thank you for this great product!

I Like!!!!
April 17, 2013
Reviewer: Sevenofnine from Conyers, GA United States
So far so good on the MTCG. Think I like it best as a leave in conditioner. Will buy again, but no time soon because this will last me a long time, plus I will continue to use my chemicals free conditioner that I've used for a while now, and it works very well and is very friendly with my other QB products that I use. Gave it five stars because as a leave in conditioner it's great.

The Bomb!
January 2, 2012
Reviewer: LaShelle McCoy from Merritt Island, FL United States
I LOVE this stuff. Love, love, love it. I use it on wet hair as a moisturizer and on dry hair before I retwist every night. It leaves such a beautiful shine! And zero build-up over the coarse of the week. I use it along with the Castor Softening serum. Keep up the good work QB.

Rio Grande may dry up
The Rio Grande River is expected to, for the most part, disappear this month.
The water flowing down the river is a product of three main players: the Water Authority's water, Albuquerque's water supply and the Middle Rio Grande Conservancy District's irrigation water for farmers and then releases from the Bureau of Reclamation.
However, the irrigation water has run out, and the water authority will switch to all aquifer water. All that will be left in the river is the bureau's water.
The Silver Minnow is an endangered species and the Bureau of Reclamation is saddled with the responsibility of ensuring the fish's protection.
That includes spending money for water.
With one source instead of three, the river is expected to turn into pockets of wet spots instead of one flowing body.
Any additional irrigation water will solely come from rainfall.

Kids come to Crossroads, a Mesa alternative school, when they have severe emotional problems that make it tough to fit into traditional classrooms.
Students who cut themselves, who are morbidly obese, who have extreme social anxiety or who may have been teased or ostracized to the point of wanting to drop out of school for good find that, at Crossroads, the Mesa Unified School District was able to create a place specifically for them.
The school opened last year and now has about 90 students, some staying all year and others heading back to their home schools once they've addressed their issues.
"Some of these kids have been wounded, but we're here to pump the life into them," said Edna Weekly, the school's principal.
These students would be labeled at risk academically by most standards, but Crossroads teachers and administrators don't allow students to merely skate by, learning the minimum.
"We learn everything students in the other junior high schools learn," said teacher Colleen Hogan. "We have the same curriculum and standards to meet."
This year, students are involved in a national stock-trading competition in which they are excelling and their teachers and principal, and even the district administration, have noted that it is an achievement.
The Stock Market Game is an online simulation exercise where students are given a theoretical $100,000, and then, over a 10-week period, invest it in the market however they choose. The student, or team of students, earning the most money in 10 weeks wins.
Crossroads students currently hold first through sixth places. Students also placed first, second and fourth in the state competition sponsored through the Arizona Council on Economic Education.
Eighth-grader Kameron Poole, first-place winner in the state competition, is now in the running for first place nationally. He's a tall, quiet boy, slightly embarrassed that his mom showed up in his class and is raving about him.
"That's my baby," his mother, Lillia Poole, said when she saw Kameron's investments are making him more money than the leaders in the high school division have been able to accumulate. He's made more than $50,000 on his initial $100,000.
Over the course of the project, students learn about the Simple Money Average, gap downs, umbrella funds and emerging nations. They're able to read a chart and know, by the track of a line, whether it's a good time to invest.
Catherine Coleman is a retired Mesa schoolteacher who rejoined the district on a part-time basis at Crossroads and took on the stock market project as her own.
Coleman says her goal is to push economic knowledge on young people because too many young adults have no idea how money and investments work.
"Kids can't see," she said. "They think, 'I'll never be 60.' Well, hopefully, they will, and it would be great if they were prepared."
Hogan said she is proud of how her students have embraced the stock market project and encouraged one another along the way.
Her classroom is a "one-room schoolhouse" environment where the 18 seventh- and eighth-graders spend the entire day together, learning all their subjects.
The stock market game is not only helping them improve their math skills, she said, but to understand important life skills that may help them apply for college financial aid and scholarships.
Principal Weekly said the contest is also helping boost her students' self-esteem because they are competing against, and surpassing the performance of honors students from other schools.
"These kids can do it," Weekly said. "They may be 'alternative kids,' but they are beautiful and bright. We need to tap into these kids and say 'you have a light.' "

To call The Body Shop a mere skin and body care store is to miss half of what makes it special. Late founder Dame Anita Roddick was a pioneer for ethical business practices; upon opening her first store in Brighton, England, in 1976, she developed company values such as "Defend Human Rights" and "Protect The Planet." She somehow balanced principles and profit, partnering in global campaigns with UNICEF, Greenpeace, Amnesty International, and the United Nations, all while ultimately expanding her brand into 2,500 locations in over 60 international markets. After her death in 2007, then-British Prime Minister Gordon Brown said, ?She campaigned for green issues for many years before it became fashionable to do so and inspired millions to the cause by bringing sustainable products to a mass market. . . . She was an inspiration.?
Indeed, the Body Shop exhibits an eco-friendliness and social consciousness that's hard to come by in a company of its size. Its products have been fair-trade since 1987, and its Against Animal Testing movement led to an EU-wide ban of animal testing of cosmetics. The products are made from ingredients harvested from around the world: shea butter from Ghana goes into body scrubs and butters, and Indian artisans craft wooden massagers and tote bags that are screenprinted by hand. But all that isn't to say the company's production practices overshadow its final products. Skincare treatments such as the brand?s iconic body butters, facial products, and gift collections often appear in Allure, Marie Claire, Lucky, Seventeen and other national publications.
In 1976, two UC Davis graduate students bought 20 acres of land in the highly arable Capay Valley. One of the students, Kathleen Barsotti, was working toward her master's degree in ecology and was determined to grow vegetables and fruits in an eco-friendly way: organically. The organic-food movement hadn't yet entered the public consciousness, and Kathleen worked overtime to convince restaurants, stores, and consumers of the taste-able merits of her process. Over time, given the possible health and environmental benefits of certified organic food, she succeeded. The farm sprouted to 300 acres to accommodate the increased demand. Today, a second generation runs the farm as well as a shop inside San Francisco's Ferry Building. Dubbed Farm Fresh To You, the store furnishes customers' bags or portable cornucopia horns with all sorts of soil-sprouted goods, including heirloom tomatoes, sweet peas, and fresh asparagus. The farm also teams up with fellow Yolo County and Pacific Northwest farms to deliver boxes of seasonal produce to area homes.
A referee stands guard over the designated trampoline dodge-ball court as teams soar through the air in graceful arcs and rebound off the walls. The fast-paced game reflects Great Jump Sports' mission to refresh workout routines. In doing so, the staff keeps upbeat music pouring out of the sound system and welcomes fitness clubs to hold classes in the arena.
Though the arena fosters a jovial environment, safety is paramount. Padding covers all hard surfaces, and vertical walls and netting prevent spills. Staffers keep the vast arena well ventilated and air-conditioned, and use all-natural, scent-free disinfectants. They also supply all jumpers with skid-free socks for safe landings.
Once patrons have expended energy reserves and perfected their meteor impersonations, they can head to the arcade or settle in at Great Jump Sports' caf?, where chefs bake pizzas in a brick oven and arrange fruit and veggie platters.
The Green Creation's founder, Smitha Prasad, fashions soft, comfy clothes for kids using GOTS-certified organic cotton tinged with colorful, nontoxic dyes free of azo compounds and other irritants. Each hoodie, onesie, bib, and dress cloaks little ones in hip, stylish cuts of cloth sourced from fair-trade farms and grown without the aid of harmful pesticides, an eco-friendly recipe that makes the wearer more likely to attract lots of hip, stylish flora and fauna. Retro floral prints and other exclusive designs decorate the apparel, whose soft fabric and mostly tagless construction reduce discomfort. Husks of paddy rice generate electricity for each garment's manufacture; all excess materials are recycled.
Named one of Parents magazine's Top 10 Birthday Chains in 2010, Color Me Mine's international franchise of DIY ceramics studios cater to an older crowd as well. Hundreds of unadorned ceramic pieces?including vases, flatware, and busts of Elvis?await the attentions of muses of kids and their keepers alike, as do glazes in earthy tones and bright crimsons to frighten bulls away from china cabinets. Guests follow simple step-by-step instructions that leave plenty of room for creative expression. When painters are satisfied with their work, the professional kiln-workers help glaze and fire it for them before customers retrieve the finished piece a few days later.
Inside Line Racing gives RC enthusiasts a venue to pit their mechanical monsters against radio-controlled rivals in tests of speed and skill. A large, winding foam track provides the arena upon which glory will be won and reputations will be shattered as motor-powered autos careen toward the finish line. Rentals are fully able to hold their own, even against home-brewed speed machines, ensuring a fun and fair hour of competition for beginners and Mario Andrettis alike.

BANKRUPTCY AND INSOLVENCY – application to set aside a bankruptcy notice –whether orders attached to a bankruptcy notice identified payments to be made on different accounts
22. I did not understand there to be, finally, any other substantive ground raised in support of the application to set aside the bankruptcy notice, although a number of other matters were raised in the written submissions. One matter which appears to me not to be covered in one way or another by the matters already discussed is a suggestion that the JUDGMENT/ORDER signed and sealed by a Registrar of the Supreme Court on 17 August 2010 was not a "final Judgment or final Order" as required by s 41 of the Bankruptcy Act 1966 (Cth) ("Bankruptcy Act"). The JUDGMENT/ORDER signed and sealed by the Registrar is a "certificate" for the purposes of s 178 of the Evidence Act 1995 (Cth). The certificate is evidence of the existence of an order by "an applicable court" and of the matters stated in the certificate. It was accepted that the specific orders set out in the certificate are an accurate consolidation of orders actually made, and in effect. If there was any infelicity or clerical error in the certificate, s 306 of the Bankruptcy Act would, in my view, operate to overcome any such defect. The certificate was adequate proof of a final judgment or order and the existence of the debt claimed.
