The Venture Bros: The Doctor Is Sin
The Venture Bros: Shadowman 9: In the Cradle of Destiny (season premiere)
Even though I was looking forward to a bit of closure on that, I was also excited about hearing from the Ventures. Strangely enough, there was a surprising lack of Ventures in this episode of The Venture Bros. Instead, we got a whole lot of backstory about the Monarch, Dr. Girlfriend and good ol' Phantom Limb. It didn't pack the punch that one would expect from a season premiere, but it certainly delivered all the amazing things that one would expect from the show. I mean, apart from the actual Venture brothers.
Venture Bros. just made my wardrobe even geekier
Now, here comes The Venture Bros. to make things extra-horrible for my wardrobe and my wallet. Fans have spent the last four years or so moaning about how there are barely any goodies for purchase, and the merch gods (in this case, aka Jackson Publick) have spoken just in time for the new season.
Venture Bros. Season Three teaser sans shrieking laughter - VIDEO
Quickstop Entertainment has finally posted high-quality versions of the exclusive teaser. Now you can watch it crouched over your laptop, ears pressed to your cheap speakers, the way media is meant to be enjoyed. Regardless, it looks like we are in for quite a season. According to Jackson Publick, Doc Hammer only had three and a half completed episodes to use for this trailer and this is definitely not a collection of the best of Season Three. If the best is truly still to come, then I'm sure the new season, starting June 1, will be nothing short of crazy spectacular.
NY Comic-Con: Battlestar Galactica, Moonlight, Venture Bros. - VIDEOS
Okay, I'm finally back from the New York Comic-Con and I still smell like the Javits Convention Center. Fandom seeps into the deepest layers of one's skin and take at least a few weeks to wash out. It's a scientific fact.
The first panel I attended wasn't even TV-related. Worrying that the Battlestar Galactica room would fill before I could even step into the line, I sat through the preceding panel for Wall-E and Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian to guarantee a seat. As it turns out, the theater is absolutely huge and two big screens were on either side of the stage, so my worry was kind of pointless. I was reminded of what I already knew: Wall-E looks insanely cute, Chronicles of Narnia has a greasy-haired new guy and the Jesus lion again. However, this is when I began to play a game that lasted throughout the entire weekend: Analyze the differing levels of scary devotion throughout various fanbases!
Venture Bros. third season starts June 1
All right, best news first: The official premiere date for Season Three is June 1! It has been confirmed by Jackson Publick, so you know it's good. The crew is about to get back to work and start Season Four, which means the wait for a new season won't be quite as painful as usual.
How to draw The Venture Bros.
It wouldn't be Christmas without a Venture MP3
I quite like this song, but I don't think anything will be able to top the Monarch/Henchmen love that was "Hard Candy Christmas". And what's up with the Monarch doing every single song? Jackson Publick must have a little too much fun with that voice.
All Annie wants for Festivus
Well, by "one thing", I really meant "six TV-related requests", but that's still not asking for much. Please, mysterious Festivus entity, I promise that I've been a good girl and that I have done my absolute best to properly preface all of my spoilerific posts. I also promise to make a much better effort in 2008 to be less creepy to all my favorite TV stars (sorry, Mr. Colbert). Super swear. All I want is...
It's time for a scientastic Venture Bros. update
Doc Hammer, one half of the writing team and the voice of Dr. Girlfriend and #24, attended Dragon*Con to share the Venture love but, as always, refused to share any spoilers. We still don't have anything juicy at the moment, but storyboard artist Stephen DeStefano just updated his blog with some small sneak peeks.
Six creeps I'd rather date than VH1's Mystery
I suppose it isn't the fault of the contestants. After all, they're unintentional virgins and their minds are malleable, subject to easy manipulation by anyone who wears eyeliner. That's where the show's host, Mystery, comes in.
Animation news: Birdman says bye bye, Venture ventures deeper, and Bufu coming to BET - VIDEO
Not a lot to report animation-wise, but here's a few things you might find interesting:
The series finale of Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law airs tonight at 11:45. You can also watch it on Adult Swim's site. I caught it yesterday, and all I will say is that fans will not be disappointed. Or maybe you will be, but I don't really care. I've got my own stuff to worry about.

Animators contribute to NY art exhibit
"Too Art For TV, Too" is the second annual art exhibit in New York City featuring artwork from animators in both the TV and movie industries. The exhibit opens on May 4 and runs through May 25 at the Stay Gold Gallery and does not feature work created for the animators' respective TV shows and movies, but rather original art "free from television's corporate demands."
Over thirty-five artists will have work on display, including the Venture Bros' Jackson Publick, and animators for SpongeBob SquarePants, Celebrity Deathmatch, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Code Name: Kid's Next Door and Blue's Clues. That list of show's alone surely makes this worth checking out, which I would do if I actually lived in New York City. You can check out the site here, which has some small samples of the work to be displayed. Jason DiOrio's bony monkey creature is my favorite.

Best Local Album of the Past 12 Months St. Louis 2012 - Girl Talk
Jenn Malzone has never lacked outlets for her estimable piano chops or her smirking, strident vocals. In the past few years, she has performed and recorded with the chamber-pop quartet Paper Dolls (RIP) and the buzzy, hook-handy Tight Pants Syndrome. But with the piano-centric Middle Class Fashion, Malzone has found her sweet spot. Along with bassist and harmony vocalist Brian McClelland (also in TPS) and drummer Brad Vaughn, Malzone released the fourteen-track Girl Talk, and plenty of local gigs and community-radio support helped these tunes stick like bubblegum in the heads of many happy listeners. In fact, Girl Talk was the second-most played album on KDHX (88.1 FM) for the first half of 2012 (right after another local band, Rough Shop, and its fine LP Beneath the South Side Bridge). It's not hard to hear the appeal: big, thick, bouncy chords underpin the many pop-happy moments, while the album's few solemn stretches, like the achingly beautiful "Sweet," are tempered with plaintive chords played tenderly. But such tenderness is muted by some lyrical wit. God help the suckers on the business end of Malzone's pen — a coterie of losers and lousy lovers get told in glorious kiss-off fashion on this LP. At least they can say they inspired a great pop song or two.

Lindsay Lohan to Star in Lady Gaga's New Music Video: Report
Well, if Gaga is endorsing her, we can officially call this a comeback.
Lindsay Lohan and Lady Gaga have become friends — and they even had a little "sleepover" last month at the Chateau Marmont. Now, according to Page Six, LiLo has landed her next role: starring in a music video off Gaga's upcoming album, ARTPOP. There's no release date yet for the album and no details yet on the video.
Lindsay has been working hard on her acting comeback. She plays Elizabeth Taylor in the new Lifetime movie Liz & Dick, she's starring in Bret Easton Ellis' The Canyons and she may join the cast of Scary Movie 5. But having Mother Monster behind her is a very different kind of career boost. "Due to Gaga's superstar status, this would be Lindsay's biggest [role] by far in many, many years," a source told Page Six. Another source sniffed that a "huge artist" like Gaga shouldn't choose "chose someone currently at the bottom of the Hollywood food chain."
Hey, we've all been at the bottom of the food chain at one point — and Gaga loves her some underdogs. What do you think? Paws up for Lindsay in Gaga's video or is your Little Monster head shaking in disapproval?

CCCC bond backers step up education, awareness efforts
Supporters say the four Central Carolina Community College bond issues Lee County residents will vote upon in November, which total $23 million, will have little to no effect on taxpayers and are all important to the college's goals.
The total cost breaks down to a $9 million bond for a new health science building for Central Carolina Community College, a $5 million bond to renovate the college's veterinary medical technology facility, a $4 million bond to renovate CCCC's Emergency Services Training Center and other facilities and a $5 million bond to renovate the Dennis A. Wicker Civic Center.
The CCCC Bond Committee, a loose-knit group of 25 supporters of the bonds who share ties to the college, has been working to raise awareness and garner support for the bond issues and will continue to do so through November.
Jamie Kelly, chairman of the CCCC Bond Committee, said the group has adopted a marketing strategy in an attempt to clarify points of confusion and correct misinformation on the impact the bonds would have.
"[People think] that it's going to be this huge tax burden," Kelly said. "It's not. If we rolled out all the bonds, all $23 million worth, at one time, it would be a 3 cent tax increase. That being said, thats not community college's plan. ...The [total] tax burden might be a penny. It might be nothing."
CCCC President Bud Marchant said the CCCC Board of Trustees would work closely with the Lee County Board of Commissioners to ensure as little financial impact on Lee County citizens as possible, and that it would most likely be five to seven years before all four projects were completed.
"What this referendum does is it gives the county permission to issue bonds for construction projects [for the college]," Marchant said. "It doesn't say they have to do it the day after the election. The board of trustees will work with the commissioners to figure out how to issue bonds in a way that tax implications are as little as possible."
Kelly said the committee already has made presentations to local groups like the Sanford Area Chamber of Commerce and the Lee County Board of Education. He said area residents can expect to see more and more promotional material in the coming months until the election.
"People will start to see billboards hopefully this week," Kelly said. "Yard signs, button stickers, a Facebook page, brochures, window posters, all that kind of stuff that raises awareness."
Kelly and Marchant agreed that while citizens would vote on each issue separately, the bond questions should be viewed as four parts of a single whole.
The bonds
Marchant said the health science building would house programs for phlebotomists, sleep technicians, certified nursing assistants and EKG technicians, all of which are in short supply.
"These programs have been identified as in high demand in our area," Marchant said. "People who go through that training will be able to enter into employment almost immediately after graduation."
The school's veterinary medical technology program offers students an array of career options as well, and, according to Marchant, the facility requires renovations and upgrades to maintain its accreditation by the the American Veterinary Medical Association's Committee on Veterinary Technician Education and Activities, which it has had since 1974.
Marchant said the renovations to the building would allow the facility to house 100 students, 36 more than its current capacity of 64.
On the need to renovate the emergency training facility, Kelly said the building lacked showers, which, due to North Carolina law, prohibits students to return to the classroom after training exercises. Marchant said the bond also would cover general repairs like a new roof for Joyner Hall, which has had the same roof since its construction in the 1970s.
The civic center bond would help outfit the facility with a small business incubator, which Marchant said would drastically increase foot traffic and visitors to downtown Sanford.
"The college has operated a small business incubator in Dunn for over 25 years now," Marchant said. The success rate [in Dunn] is phenomenal. Dozens and dozens of business have spun out of there.
"Lots of small groups of 100 to 150 people would spend the day in Sanford for conventions if we had proper breakout space, A.V. and digital-type equipment in the building. [The incubator] would be a huge economic boon to Lee County and city of Sanford."
Looking to the centennial
CCCC celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2011, and Marchant said he believes all four bonds are important to the college's success over the next 50 years.
"These projects will position us in a way that we will move in a positive direction for the college," Marchant said. "The college has a superior track record of job creation. It's stayed true to its mission to providing training to lead people to employment. We want to continue to move in that particular direction."
Kelly maintains that the bond's long-term benefits will be exponentially rewarding to Sanford and Lee County.
"There's just a lot that this thing encompasses that's going to touch business and economic development in our community," Kelly said. "People will see the effects for the next 50 years."

And what exactly do you expect from them? It seems that pretty standard features on most guild sites have to include a blog of some kind (to track your guild's kills), a message board for both talking to the public and planning private raids, some time of roster software (powered by the Armory or otherwise), and a DKP tracker of some kind. Of course, even if you don't go with a hosting service, there are also lots of different apps that will let you do all of this on your own, as long as you're HTML and maybe even PHP ready.
I'll tell you one thing I'd like to see in guild hosting sites that I haven't yet: a design that's actually easy on the eyes. I'm really proud you downed Vashj, guys, but next time, try raiding some web design fundamentals.

Five Questions: Hit-Making Producer Tech Supreme Talks St. Louis Hip-Hop
Corey Black - "Finger In My Nose"
I started producing in 1997 for a group I was in with Young Thunder (then Sci-Fi) and a few other high school friends. From then I went on to produce for Thunder as he went solo. From there I began doing work with people associated with Thunder in a group called The 87 Billion Dollar Click. The group consisted of Thunder, Tef Poe, Family Affair, Gotta Be Karim, I think Rockwell Knuckles was affiliated and a few more. After doing some records here and there for them I made a compilation called Slightly Beneath the Surface. I pretty much sat in my apartment and wrote down the names of every artist in the city that was popping, and set out a plan to do a song with them. It featured Ebony Eyez at the height of her newly signed recording deal, Rockwell Knuckles, Family Affair, Ruka Puff, D-Mac, Da Slu Cru, Spade R.I.P.P.E.R., Nato Caliph, and more. That was around 2007-2008. After that I came up with a plan to release a project a month in the beginning of 2009. I did a rap EP for myself, then a compilation with producer/engineer Dro called Subwoofer.
After that I started working with Corey Black and we dropped The Blackout, which had the aforementioned "Finger In My Nose" track... I worked with Nato Caliph on his R.E.A.C.H. EP. I also dropped another compilation in 2010 called Supremacy. This compilation featured new collaborations with January Ellh, Whiteout, Theresa Payne, Legend Camp, Erich "E-Rich" Richardson, The ChalkBoyz, M.C, Kyjuan, Murphy Lee, Chingy, Gangsta Gritz, William H, Indiana Rome, and others. Currently I am working with Nick "Whiteout" Menn, and Ramel "RT-FaQ" Prince on a collaboration album. I produced a few tracks for Whiteout on his debut album The Good which was just released, as well as a track on RT-FaQ's album that was also recently released I have had the opportunity to have national artists appear on my work such as Killer Mike, GLC, XV, Travis Porter, I-20 and a few others.
What have you personally contributed to the expansion of the St. Louis sound?
That's a difficult question because I can't describe my own legacy. Who can? To some I am completely unknown, but to others I am their favorite producer, locally or nationally. I've had strangers come up to me and tell me I am their favorite. That means the world to me... It takes hard work, dedication, and time, but you can live out your dreams. Whether it's music, my graphic design company Illustrious Vision or my weight loss (100+ pounds), you can do what you set out in your mind. I want producers to sit down at that keyboard and try to be as innovative as possible. Anyone can do a trap beat, it takes five minutes, but lets make some dope chord progressions. Let's make something that sounds like a sample. RT-FaQ told me recently that he loves my tracks because he can't tell if it's a sample or not. That's one of the dopest compliments I've gotten.

Armageddon's Trigger
"Also Messiah jumped, It was announced that he died"
New in the Website
Waiting for Messiah: On Hebrew Rock Music
"An accident to whom,
In early 2010, I published an article named Waiting for Messiah: On Hebrew Rock Music, where I commented on the album of the same name published in the far past by Shalom Hanoch.
When the album was issued, its text became an immediate hit, even at the remote Jordan Valley kibbutz where I was living at the time. Two of its texts became prophetic. Maybe because they were Pygmalion prophecies; self-fulfilling predictions frantically pushed by their devotees. The song "Waiting for Messiah" made a clear reference to a crash of the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange in the eighties, while "He Doesn't Stop at Red Lights" correctly predicted the future of Ariel Sharon. Both were quite scary and thus mixed well in the indefatigable conspirators' attempts to intimidate us to death; I described other such attempts—including the use of George Orwell's 1984 at school—in The Cross of Bethlehem. Probably that's the reason why the administration didn't censor them. Israel didn't have any scruples in censoring songs. After the Yom Kippur War, Yitzhak Rabin had prohibited the Army Radio to broadcast the Song for Peace. Years later, he would be assassinated minutes after having sung it during a peace rally in Tel Aviv.
Today, I was preparing this article, and remembered the catchy lines; after all, the name Artzieli is strikingly similar to Azrieli, our hero today.
New Zionist Century Endangered
Netanyahu is desperate. A guillotine was placed for his personal use on Tel Aviv and he is unable to solve the social problems that led to its being put there. I was told by a reliable source that he is reluctant of using the guillotine. Discrimination and racism are also raising their ugly head, most notoriously with recent words by Shlomo Maoz. Until he uttered them, he was the main economist of Excellence Nassua, a prominent Israeli investment company. Among other pearls, he said that Bank Leumi is a "white bank" and that the Supreme Court is an "Ashkenazi Court." Netanyahu keeps issuing terror scares, some of them have been even commented upon here, most recently in Military Rabbinate Plans Third Temple.
Truth is simple; if Netanyahu does not undermine representative government, representative government would undermine him and the entire Israeli oligarchy. The only way he can undermine it is by creating such a dire situation that people would accept every abuse and violation of their rights. In other words, Netanyahu needs a war.
By the end of 2011, things looked bad. On June, Israel had provided a casus belli event to Syria, by assassinating Syrian civilians on Syrian territory. However, Syria didn't declare war on Israel. Then, Israel lost its closest military ally in the Middle East. Following the Freedom Flotilla Affair, Turkey reduced the diplomatic relations between the countries down to a minimum, but didn't declare war on Israel. Then the unthinkable happened, the Palestinians passed the first stage of recognition by the UN, but were then brutally stopped by Israel at the Security Council. Yet, on October 31, UNESCO granted Palestine full membership, with 107 votes in favor, 14 against and 52 abstentions. Israel severely warned Palestinians to delay the process at other UN agencies, and cut the transfer of custom revenues to Palestine. Instead of declaring an Independence War, Palestinians complied since they wanted Israel to unfreeze their custom revenues. I already reviewed how a German submarine defended Palestine; all these before even mentioning Iran and the ongoing Israeli threats in that direction. Eventually, Netanyahu failed in all his Machiavellian machinations. War was not declared on Israel, and his fiefdom continued crumbling from inside. Lie after lie, plot after plot, provocation after provocation; everything failed for Netanyahu.
Netanyahu needs an Armageddon's Trigger, an Israeli parallel to 9/11. Years ago, David Azrieli provided one.
Azrieli Center
In the late nineties, I was sitting with Arik Caspi, the son of the Jewish terrorist who blew up Jerusalem's King David Hotel back in the 1940s and one of the dark stars in The Cross of Bethlehem, when out of the blue he told me:
"It will fill Tel Aviv's center with glass." This form of speech was typical of this overgrown art-student. Taking another sip of my coffee, I asked for clarifications. Was he planning to outperform his father?
"If Azrieli Center blows up or a plane crashes on it, Tel Aviv's center would be covered in glass." I didn't take this too seriously; after all, 9/11 was still in the future. Yet, his idea was frightening. Especially considering his Mossad connections.
Back then, the center wasn't finished. It was called Shalom Center. Shortly after, David Azrieli chose to follow the ego-trip path and changed the center's name. There is another sign of this; the center includes three skyscrapers, rising above a large shopping mall. One of the towers is square, the other circular and the third triangular. It is said each tower represents the shape of the letters in his wife's name: NOA. The circular tower has 49 floors and is 187m in height, making it the second tallest building in Israel, after the nearby Moshe Aviv Tower in Ramat Gan (the latter hides behind the towers shown in the picture above).
The towers are located next to the main highway separating Tel Aviv from Ramat Gan. The highway connects Gush Dan——Tel Aviv's Metropolitan Area——with Jerusalem and the nearby Ben Gurion International Airport. Tel Aviv downtown is from where the picture above was taken. The buildings are located not only on a superb location to be hit in a variety of ways, but also at the very center of Israel's main city. Not only would the city be covered with glass, but also life and transport there would be penurious for a long period of time. If attacked, it would be not treated as an overlooked casus belli.
Mr. Netanyahu, is Azrieli Center your Armageddon's Trigger? Would you destroy the towers and then falsely blame an Iranian missile attack? Is that why Israeli media gave recently so much space to Hezbollah's next targets? Are Haaretz (see Is the Vatican Training Hezbollah?) and other Israeli media patsies preparing the ground for the Israeli public acceptance that the largest real estate project in Israel and the Middle East, was destroyed in a terrorist attack. Wouldn't that be nice for your career, Mr Netanyahu? Would you give the task to Caspi Junior, so that:
In those days they shall say no more, The fathers have eaten a sour grape, and the children's teeth are set on edge. Jeremiah 31:29.
Take your time, Mr. Bibi. You can answer by email, though I understand in this case you may prefer to let me see the results.

Christmas Eve on the Middle Teton
The vague plan was to head to the saddle between the Middle and the South Teton, scoping out conditions of possible lines along the way. The immediate plan was to enjoy rare December sun somewhere in the Teton Range. We made our way carefully into the south fork of Garnet and cut up towards the Southwest Couloir of the Middle Teton.

What happened to the land of opportunity?
You've heard me say it a thousand times before, but it needs to be said again. It is time to change direction in Washington. With a stubborn unemployment rate hovering around 9 percent in North Carolina and no end in sight for our economic woes, drastic measures need to be taken to place unemployed Americans atop Washington's priority list.
America's need for jobs got a lot of attention during the election season, but its urgency cannot be lost in the wake of campaign rhetoric. The national unemployment rate has inched down from 10 percent in 2009 to under 8 percent today, but this only masks our nation's real jobs problem. Today, 23 million Americans are unemployed, underemployed, or have stopped looking for work. A record 47 million people are poor enough to be on food stamps. In the Eighth District alone, these numbers soar about the national average. Regardless of education level, the longer someone is unemployed, the tougher it is for them to find a job, and if they finally do, it will likely be for a lower salary than their previous job. In fact, median household incomes today stand at 1995 levels. What happened to the Land of Opportunity?
This is the question that prompted me to run for office in 2011. And it was for this same reason that one of my first acts as a Member of Congress was to embark on a "Listening Tour" throughout the 8th District. On this Listening Tour, which will be completed by the end of the month, I've been meeting with job creators and employees at local Chambers of Commerce and economic development groups to gain answers to the question, "How exactly can jobs be created in each and every county and how can we stimulate economic growth specifically within our community?"
Here are a few thoughts from the leaders in our community:
• Fiscal Responsibility
We need an economy where lenders will lend, buyers will buy, and employers will employ—all because they have confidence in our financial institutions. To get there, we need get our national debt under control. That means, Washington must stop spending money it doesn't have. No more unsustainable practices like printing money to buy our own debt. We need legislators who are committed and willing to make common-sense decisions that will stop the spending madness in Washington.
• Certainty
The uncertainty in healthcare costs, energy costs, taxes and regulations are holding small businesses back from hiring new workers and expanding their businesses. Who could blame them? We can't seriously ask a business owner to place millions of dollars on the line when the political whims of bureaucrats in Washington could take it all away. The best policy government can enact to create jobs is to get out of the way and give small businesses the confidence to plan, invest, and hire again.
• Collaboration
Collaboration is key. It's going to be hard to find areas where Republicans and Democrats can work together, but that is our challenge now, and if we don't attempt it — believe it or not — things will only get worse. When thinking about the daunting situation our nation finds itself in, I am often encouraged by remembering the spirit of collaboration between North Carolina's late-Senator Jesse Helms, and Massachusetts's late-Senator Ted Kennedy. These two could not have held more opposite views on a majority of the issues, but they trusted each other and found areas where they could agree in order to get things done.
The freshmen of the 113th Congress seem to understand the importance of this. I have spent significant time getting to know my colleagues from the other side of the aisle and while we may often vote differently and end up cancelling out each other's votes, much like Jesse Helms and Ted Kennedy, I believe we will find issues where we can agree and work together to get our constituents back in the workplace. This same tactic applies to the 12 counties of the Eighth District. We must have inter-county dialogues and collaborate to work for the good of our community.
• Incremental Change
With a split Congress, it will be hard to get big things done in Washington. But by working on small, piecemeal changes we can certainly start chipping away at the larger problem. For example, the hundreds of regulations in the Dodd-Frank financial reform law and President Obama's healthcare law are killing small business growth. I would bet that I can work with a Democrat in the Senate to implement a small change that would have a big impact on business and job creation. Implementing incremental change is the way we can start to make a difference in the 113th Congress.
While reflecting on the Listening Tour thus far and thinking about the needs of our District, I am optimistic—optimistic that we can move this country and our District forward. It won't be easy, and not every decision will be popular, but I'll never stop advocating for greater opportunities and promoting a smaller government agenda. Together, we can get folks back to work.

Three wounded in accidental shooting at gun show
A Durham man was one of three people wounded in an accidental shooting at the Dixie Gun and Knife Show Saturday at the N.C. State Fairgrounds in Raleigh.
Linwood Hester, 50, of Durham, was treated at WakeMed Hospital in Raleigh along with Janet Hoover, 54, of Benson. Both of their injuries did not appear to be life threatening, according to N.C. Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services spokesman Brian Long. Jake Alderman, 54, of Wake Forest, was treated and released from WakeMed North Healthplex, according to a Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services release. Hester and Hoover were patrons of the show and Alderman is a retired Wake County Sheriff's deputy who was working at the show. Hester is a former longtime employee of The Herald-Sun.
The shooting occurred when a patron approached the show's entrance at the Jim Graham Building to have his personal shotgun checked prior to entry. According to the release, as he attempted to open the case, the shotgun accidentally discharged. The gun owner is Gary Lynn Wilson, 36, of Wilmington.
The Wake County Sheriff's Office is investigating the incident, and no information was available on pending charges as of Saturday evening. The Dixie Gun and Knife Show will continue as planned Sunday. There will be no private gun sales allowed, and no personal guns allowed on the property. Only gun sales by licensed dealers will be allowed in the Jim Graham Building.

This is a very good indian and certainly the best in Stroud
We were introduced to the spice house recently and will be going again for sure! The food was AMAZING!!! I have spent some time travelling and I think their lamb biriyani is one of the most authentic versions ive ever tried in the uk. The staff are so lovely and really couldn't have been anymore helpful and accommodating!
The Spice House is probably the best indian restaurant in Stroud. The staff are really friendly and great with kids too. We've visited a few times over the past few months and always really enjoyed the food. I would happily recommend it to friends and am glad to see that more and more people have discovered this gem.
The Spice House is a popular Indian restaurant and takeaway on Gloucester Street. They provide customers with good service preparing traditional Indian cuisine and special dishes. On Mondays and Tuesdays they currently offer a 4-course Banqueting night for just £9.95 and additionally have set meals.

Folks, here is another report for you on the meeting of COMESA heads state in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe last summer (June 2009). COMESA, The Common Market for East and Southern Africa, comprises …. Countries, from South Africa to The Sudan. They have a sub regional objective of collaborating and coordinating their individual activities to develop the region as one cohesive unit. This is with the understanding that each country has something to offer to the rest of the members, and that the region can collectively benefit if all actions were carried out in an organized and carefully coordinated manner.
The jiifto below, therefore, reports on this meeting of the COMESA heads of state and expresses my personal views and feelings about such meetings. Their deliberations focused on speeding up the implementation of the project. The delegates from each country took the floor, one after the other, informing the rest of the group enthusiastically, on how his his/her country would contribute to this important regional effort.
So folks without further a due, here is COMESA and ina Jicimbir.
**Ina jicimbir is an embodiment of a typical Somali contemporary "politician" in Somalia. He exhibits most, if not all of the following characteristics:
So, there you have: Ina Jicimbir.
Thinking about his attributes and how evil this person has been to the Somali community, I decided to coin the following song as a New Year's gift especially for him.

You may read that headline and think we are talking about child safety seats, which lock into the car's existing seat belt to secure your young child (under the age of 4) to the vehicle, further protecting your child in case of an accident.
However, booster seats work quite differently. They are meant for children who are 4 feet, 9 inches tall or shorter, and should not be used past the age of 12 -- and instead of securing the child to the vehicle itself, a booster seat properly positions a child with the vehicle's seat belt. Instead of the belt coming down around the face or neck of the child, the booster seat allows the belt to come over the shoulder -- the way the belt is intended to function.
This may seem like an obvious observation; but in 1999, not a single U.S. state had a law pertaining to booster seats. Now, every state has a booster seat law. In Ohio, the law requires children under the age of 8 (or under the 4-foot-9 height ceiling) to sit in a booster seat after they are done with their child safety seat.
Recent research indicates just how beneficial the product can be for families. According to a new study, since the passing of child booster seat laws, fewer kids have died in car accidents -- and the seat provides even more protection to kids aged 6 or 7.
During a decade-long period starting in 1999, states that had booster seat laws saw 11 percent fewer traffic deaths involving kids aged 4-7. For kids aged 6 or 7, the accident death rate plummeted about 25 percent. With the law on the books and safe booster seats in a family's vehicle, there is greatly reduced risk of injury or death for a young child.

Refuge History
Prior to January, 2004, the lands that are now included in the Holt Collier National Wildlife Refuge were Farmers Home Administration lands that had been transferred to the Fish & Wildlife Service. The FmHA lands were managed for conservation. Many acres were reforested and, along with natural succession, have grown up to produce early successional habitat valuable to songbirds and rabbits.
Holt Collier National Wildlife Refuge is the first and only refuge in the National Wildlife Refuge System that is named to honor an African-American. In 1902 when Collier guided President Theodore Roosevelt through the Mississippi Delta on his famous bear hunt, he could not have envisioned that both he and Roosevelt would leave conservation legacies. During his Presidency, Roosevelt would establish 52 National Wildlife Refuges.
Holt Collier's reputation was well known in Mississippi, Texas, Louisiana, and Arkansas, where he was known as an expert marksman and great bear hunter. "The President of the United States was anxious to see a live bear the first day of the hunt," Collier said, "I told him he would see that bear if I had to tie it and bring it to him." The hunting party included a number of turn-of-the-century dignitaries, including Illinois Central Railroad president Stuyvesant Fish; Tobasco Sauce heir John McIlhenny; soon-to-be Louisiana Governor John M. Parker; Huger Foote, grandfather of Civil War authority Shelby Foote; and LeRoy Percy, who later became a U. S. Senator and was the great uncle of the late novelist Walker Percy.
During the hunt, Collier chased a black bear to the water hole where Roosevelt was supposed to be waiting in a stand. As luck would have it, and unknown to Collier, Roosevelt had vacated the stand for an early lunch, and was not present when the bear arrived at the water hole. Collier's dogs bayed the bear in the water hole and in all the excitement, the bear turned and attacked the dogs. When Collier arrived at the water hole, the bear was attacking one of his best dogs. To save his favorite hunting dog, and to provide a bear for the President, Collier overpowered the bear, saved the dog, and tied the bear to a tree. When Roosevelt arrived, he refused to shoot Collier's captured bear.
The incident was picked up by the media and publicized across the nation. Cartoonist Clifford Berryman published a cartoon in the Washington Star showing Roosevelt, rifle in hand, with his back turned on a sweet little bear. Public response to the president's self-restraint was overwhelmingly favorable.
Morris Michtom, who later founded the Ideal Toy Company, saw the cartoon and asked his wife Rose to design and sew a toy bear. They displayed the toy bear in the window of their small Brooklyn, New York shop with a label: "Teddy Bear." The original bear was purchased, others were produced, and America's favorite toy, the Teddy Bear, was born. The original teddy bear, saved by President Roosevelt's grandchildren, is now displayed at the Smithsonian.
Less than a year after his bear hunting trip to Mississippi, President Roosevelt created the first national wildlife refuge on Pelican Island, in Florida. During his Presidency, Roosevelt would establish 52 National Wildlife Refuges.

Tigers tire quickly in new year clashes
Posted: January 17, 2013|
YMCA Torbay Tigers U14s basketball team lost both games in a double header on Sunday at Deerpark College Cirencester in the U14 South West Regional League.
The Tigers, in their first games of the new year, played Stroud Sharks and hosts Gloucester Jets. They first took on the unbeaten Sharks in what proved to be a tough but well-contested game that was even until the final quarter.
The Tigers were ahead in the first quarter by two points and the scores were all square at the end of the third quarter. But with a time out and a change of tactics the Sharks stopped the supply to the Tigers' offence and took full advantage of the Tigers lack of playing time.
In the final quarter the Sharks used their experience and physical presence, making the most of the Tigers' defensive errors and cutting loose, running out winners by 39-28.
Following a ten minute interval, Tigers then played hosts Gloucester Jets who were after revenge for their defeat against Tigers at the recent first leg fixture at Churston.
The Tigers were never in the game, and the Jets took full advantage of below par shooting and passing, compounded by a lack of aggression defensively.
Although there was some encouragement with the individual performances of James Fry, Harry McDonald and Dan Alibone, the Jets were never troubled and won 50-25.
The side will hope to improve before their next two games against Plymouth and Bristol Flyers 1, both at Plymouth on February 9.
After the games, head coach Rick Wooldridge said: "With the Tigers giving way between one and two years in age and playing back to back games it was always going to be a tough trip against two of the better teams in the league.
"But I would like to highlight the input, effort and obvious development of James Fry who had two good games."
The squad and scorers for YMCA Torbay Tigers' two games were:
Joe Windsor (2pts), Sam Osborn (2), Dan Allibone (6), Lewis Cudd (5), Harry McDonald (0), Mat Roberts (4), James Fry (3), James Cartwright (6), Jamie Davey (0) and Otis Skitch (25).
The YMCA Torbay Tigers U14 squad train at the Hub at Paignton College from 7-8pm every Wednesday with an optional session at the YMCA on Thursdays from 7.30-9.30pm. Newcomers welcome.

IRVINE — County health officials are looking for a little girl who might have come in contact Wednesday with a rabid bat at the Wild Rivers water park in Irvine.
The girl, who appeared to be about 10, has long, blond hair and was wearing a one-piece bathing suit when she was seen touching the bat at the park's wave-maker pool between 2 and 3 p.m., health officials said.
Officials suspect the bat might have been rabid. Eight rabid bats have been discovered in Orange County since early 1995, and the creatures are the only animal found locally with rabies since 1980, according to Dr. Hildy Meyers of the Orange County Health Care Agency.
Rabies is spread by the saliva of infected animals and can cause a life-threatening infection of the central nervous system in humans, Meyers said. A series of vaccinations can effectively end the threat of a rabies exposure.

Lead Poisoning
Lead Poisoning
Lead poisoning is the name given to the harm caused by the presence of lead in the body, usually from months or years of exposure to small amounts of lead in the environment. Lead poisoning can happen at any age, but it is more harmful to children younger than 6 years of age and is especially harmful to those younger than 3 years of age; it can permanently affect a child's physical health and mental development.
Symptoms of lead poisoning can be very vague and may include irritability, mood changes, weight loss, lack of energy, vomiting, constipation, or stomach pain. In many cases there are no symptoms. Children younger than 3 who have lead poisoning may have anemia as well as learning disabilities, behaviour disorders, and a variety of other developmental problems.
Lead may be present in old paint, metal water pipes, and other substances. Lead-based paint may be a hazard in older homes, especially if it is flaking and peeling. A pregnant woman who is exposed to lead can pass it to her baby. Lead can also be passed to a baby through the mother's breast milk. The best way to prevent lead poisoning is to reduce exposure to possible sources of lead.
If you suspect you or your child has been exposed to lead, a blood test may be appropriate. Lead poisoning may be diagnosed with a blood lead test that measures the amount of lead in the blood.
Treatment of lead poisoning begins with removing sources of lead from the home and workplace. Providing balanced nutrition to a person who has lead poisoning is also essential. Chelation therapy is often used to treat severe lead poisoning. A medicine binds to the lead and allows it to be released in urine.

2008 J. Lohr Hilltop Cabernet Sauvignon
The 2008 growing season presented significant challenges on our ranch, as well as to vineyards across California. Spring and autumn frosts–coupled with heat spikes, which impacted flowering and maturation–claimed much of the prized crop. Vineyard yields for Cabernet were generally at half of normal levels for Paso Robles, averaging under 3 tons per acre. 2008 was the second consecutive vintage of drought in the area, which limited vine growth and reduced cluster and berry size significantly. Fortunately for J. Lohr, the conditions of this rather difficult vintage resulted in a group of high-extract, intensely flavored wines. This vintage, we reached between 26-28° Brix on most lots, a requirement for creating the plump fruit and soft tannin profile that Hilltop Cabernet is known for.
|Paso Robles AVA,

The 2008 Hilltop Cabernet Sauvignon is dark-colored with red-purple
hues. Aromas of black plum, violet and pomegranate are wrapped
in a bouquet of hazelnut, coconut and Italian espresso. The large
palate volume of this wine is surprisingly soft and round on the
finish. A high fraction of Malbec brings brightness to this blend,
whose complexity and structure is reminiscent of the finest of
Bordeaux. This wine will age comfortably for 10 to 15 years.

Defenseman Brooks Orpik delivered a cheap knee to knee hit on Derek Stepan late in the third period of Thursday's game, receiving a five minute major. The hit set the stage for a tirade from Rangers head coach John Tortorella following the Rangers 5-2 loss to the Penguins at the Consol Energy Center.
Tortorella went off on the hit and the Penguins organization, calling the team one of the most arrogant organizations in hockey.
"It's a cheap, dirty hit, " Tortorella said. "I wonder what would happen if we did that to their two whining stars over there, " Tortorella said, making a reference towards Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin. "Just no respect among players....none, " Tortorella proclaimed.... "It's sickening."
The best from Tortorella would come a few seconds later in his rant.

It is a well-known adage in medicine that if you have more than one treatment for a disease, you do not have the right treatment. Most medical treatments are based on a knowledge of the nature of the disease being treated. When the cause and course of the disease are well known, a specific treatment is then either developed, or research workers try to find the correct one. As an example, a bacterial infection requires a specific antibacterial agent, and diabetes mellitus requires insulin and dietary control.
Cellulite, however, is a very misunderstood disease—in fact, to a large measure, it is not understood at all. Since no one dies from cellulite, there is no political impetus to fund research about it. Somehow, the untold misery and unhappiness of millions of women does not seem to be motive enough for serious research into cellulite.
Before the most probable cause is examined, this article will explore the current concepts and look at some of the treatments offered. Conventional wisdom suggests that cellulite is a disease of the fatty tissue, and is due to lack of exercise and a poor diet. Most so-called beauty magazines advocate exercise and diet as the only effective treatment. Unfortunately, any woman who has tried these modalities realizes they are next to worthless in regard to cellulite.

About Stereodose
Welcome to Stereodose. We are a brand new site dedicated to bringing you online music, with a slight twist on our playlist creations!
First and foremost, we are NOT here to promote illegal drug use, but to bring you music historically defined by counter-culture. Genres can only go so far in describing how a song FEELS, and generic moods like "happy" are too broad in scope to properly match a song's essence. These limitations have brought us to categorize our music by substance names, which capture many intangible aspects about music that other sorting methods usually miss.
It is impossible to deny the momentous influence substances such as marijuana and LSD have had on music, inspiring legends like The Beatles all the way to modern Hip Hop artists like Wiz Khalifa. However, drug abuse should never be taken lightly, and if you're currently addicted we urge you to seek help!
Have fun and enjoy…I feel like, the music sounds better with you!
Thanks to FontFabric.com for providing the Hero and Code fonts! Also thanks to Soundcloud for providing an amazing streaming service.
Big thanks to the guys at Pythonanywhere and Web2py as well...if you like Python, definitely check em out!

While most of these new tooltips have yet to be implemented, the few that have been provide a basic level of instruction aimed at new and younger players. For example, the tooltip for the druid tanking ability Growl normally reads, "Taunts the target to attack you, but has no effect if the target is already attacking you." With the beginner tooltips feature turned on, the tooltip suggests it be used to "protect friends with less health and armor than you."
Beginner tooltips frequently lack numbers and often suggest when you should use the ability; the tooltip for the holy priest ability Holy Fire tells you to "use (it) as an opener." Not sure how to DPS as a rogue? Have absolutely no idea how to play a shirtless holy paladin that was forced upon you by hundreds of faceless voters? These new tooltips will give you clues.
The beginner tooltips may also help address one of Blizzard's longer-standing problems -- convincing new players to stay with the game long enough to learn how to play it. As reported here back in February, only three in 10 trial accounts ever get past level 10.
We chose a few noteworthy beginner tooltips from a number of different classes and put them side by side with their Wrath-style versions for you in a gallery.

A modern DJ uses lots of different equipment to put on a show, but none of it is more recognizable than the turntable. Used one or two at a time, it's the most central part of your DJ setup. You also have the option of digital MIDI controllers, of course, but there's nothing that can quite match the subtle nuances of an analog turntable, from that familiar vibration under your fingers to the distinctive feel of the grooves in your records. Today's turntables use either direct or belt drive systems. Some DJs would argue about which is better than the other, but the truth is that quality depends more on the overall design of the turntable than it does on how it's driven—all of the turntables here can put out great sound, regardless of which setup they use. Motor power does matter, though, so if you need the turntable to start and stop on a dime, your best bet will be something with a strong motor like the Stanton STR8-150 or Vestax PDX-3000.
The next things to take a look at are the turntable's controls. They can be as simple or as complex as you need, starting from the basics like speed adjustment, tone arm height adjustment and traditional pitch controls. Some higher-end features you'll find on certain turntables can be things like DSP to control tempo without affecting the pitch, or torque control to adjust the responsiveness of the deck for scratching. Stanton's turntables are especially scratch-friendly, with straight tone arms to prevent skipping and stylus illuminators to let you see the record's surface even in dim light. Read More>

Video:How to Cook BBQ Ribs on a Gas Grillwith Kenneth Nickle
Want to learn how to cook BBQ ribs on a gas grill at your home? This video will show you how to do it at home as easily as possible.See Transcript
Transcript:How to Cook BBQ Ribs on a Gas Grill
Hi, my name is Kenneth Nickle, I've been cooking Barbecue in Kansas City for a little over ten years. I trained at BB's Lawnside, competed with the Nickle boys BBQ team in competitions all over Missouri, and right now I work at Fiorella's Jack Stack. Today I'm going to give you some tips on how to grill ribs on a gas grill for About.com.
Preparing the Cook BBQ Ribs on a Gas Grill
We've got our ribs trimmed up and rubbed, I went ahead and did the St. Louis Style cut with a pork spare rib. We'll throw them on the grill away from the heat. I've got my heat going on one side and the other two burners are shut off and I put my ribs on this side. Make sure that you have the thicker part of your meat, towards the heat, and the bones away from the heat so you get a nice even cook on there. These are going to be cooking at about 225 degrees for 1 to 2 hours and we're going to be spraying them down with apple juice every time that we check on them. Give em a quick spritz before you close the lid and give them about 30 minutes before you check on them again.
Tips for Cooking BBQ Ribs
Make sure that you have your lid down all the time, except when your checking the meat. These have been on for about an hour and a half at about 225 degrees and we went ahead and wrapped them in foil. This is so that they don't start to burn. If you ever see them start to burn or get dark spots on them, just wrap them up in foil and finish the cooking process like that. If you can fit an aluminum pan with water in your grill, not a lot of them can, but this one we were able to fit one in there. Put some water in there, that will help keep everything moist.
More Tips for Cooking BBQ Ribs
We've been spraying them down with apple juice about every 20 to 30 minutes, every time we're checking on them. So we wrapped them up in foil and we're going to let them go another 25 to 30 minutes in the foil before we're to the final stage. One thing we're check on is how done they are here. One thing we can do, is on the other side you can just start poking the meat and you can feel it start to give away a little bit and you want that bone separating for the meat and you want to start poking that bone away from the meat. You can see where the meat is pulling away from the bone. That's a good sign that the ribs are done.If you want to put some barbecue sauce on them, now would be the time to do it. You only want that to go for another 15 to 20 minutes. If you want a spicier rib go ahead and add some cayenne pepper to your rub. If you want a sweeter rib you can add some honey into your barbecue sauce, or you can even add sugar to your rub before you throw them on.
These are going to be cooked to 185 degrees, if you go any higher, don't worry they are going to be just fine.When you cut them try to go in between the bone, trying to get equal amounts of meat on each rib. You can put sauce on the top of them or you can serve it on the side or both. You can serve yours with potato salad macaroni salad, baked beans, I always put pickles on mine.
Thanks for watching, for more information on how to cook ribs on a gas grill, check us out on the web, at About.com.

I don't know if I can get behind Cruise, Ford, and Douglas being in just interchangeable "man role" pieces, ignoring the recent repeat casting of Ford as "grumpy old man" in his later years.
Try Ford in Frantic or Douglas in Falling Down.
Also, Minority Report is so good! With ZP on Cruise. Just because he's more openly a loon than a lot of Hollywood actors -- or because he happened to get swept up as the loon of the evening thanks to the internet and one remembered Oprah appearance -- doesn't really affect his acting, and he stars in loads of good films. Though recently he;s just doing the "I'mmah do more good Mission Impossible's and other random action movies" thing, ignoring Tropic Thunder. But even Collateral wasn't too long ago.
Also, Midnight in Paris in from Netflix, woot!

Norman describes himself as a Republican but has no qualms as being the man responsible for airing Brown, whose slogan is "Living my life as a liberal and loving it." Brown may come off as a Reverend Al Sharpton wannabe, though recently, with her book-club meetings, she appears to have an Oprah Winfrey gene yearning to break free.
The quintessential WGNU night is Friday; it has back-to-back shows that don't belong in the same Milky Way. First there's Onion Horton, who has been on WGNU and other talk stations for decades. Horton has made a name for himself as an angry, well-read black man retired from the post office but willing to go postal about race when he's behind a microphone.
Next up is The Right at Night, a two-hour show hosted by Gordon Baum and former St. Louis Board of Education member Earl Holt. Baum is the chief executive officer of the national Council of Conservative Citizens, a group that has an image of pushing "white rights." Three years ago, the headline of a 3,000-word profile of Baum in the Washington Post referred to him as a "small-time race baiter."
Despite his addiction to free speech on WGNU, Norman knows that the station's Achilles' heel is race.
"Racism is probably the biggest criticism we get," says Norman. "They don't think we're racist, but they feel some of the callers go overboard and it's a race-mongering thing. I don't think that's true."
Because Brown's morning-drivetime show is highly critical of local police and interprets virtually every local news event through the prism of race, she bears the brunt of many critics, most of them white.
"Not a day passes where I don't get some criticism about her," says Norman. "They think it's racism in reverse, that she can't stand white people, that she won't talk to white people half the time."
Whatever criticism Brown gets, she's compensated for it. Unlike other hosts, Norman says Brown gets to keep 40 percent of the revenue from any ad she sells during her time slot. That adds up.
"Lizz Brown, she's unbelievable. She sells all kinds of time. She's way up there in the money," says Norman. "I don't get into the books at all. I'm kind of a silent bystander on these things, but I'm sure she makes at least $50,000 a year. That's a $1,000 bucks a week. Oh sure, my God, she's choking with advertising. She sells the ads."
However Norman or whoever inherits the station does it, Michael Harrison, editor of Talkers magazine, a periodical devoted to the talk-radio trade, thinks WGNU is a dinosaur worth saving.
"This is the uncorporate radio station. It's an anomaly, a station that bucks the trend," says Harrison. "It's a valuable thing to have in the community, because it's so rare. Look at consolidation and look how many fewer radio station owners there are."
That WGNU airs strange programs with just-plain-folks hosts fielding eccentric callers is not necessarily a bad thing, Harrison feels.
"In a real bustling, dynamic free marketplace of ideas, you're going to have goofiness," says Harrison. "We're so used to slick, commercial mediocrity that when we see something that ranges from brilliance to stupidness, we're surprised. It sounds to me like a cool thing."
Norman the Republican doesn't wax poetic when it comes to what has happened with the megacorporation dominance of the airwaves.
"The big conglomerates have taken over virtually everything," says Norman. "The FCC changed its rules. It used to be, when I started, no one could own more than one station in one market. That's all by the boards now -- you can own as many stations as you want. That's why these big conglomerates have gobbled up all the stations. Offhand, I can't think of one station owned by an individual except mine."
So when Norman fell about a month ago and reinjured an already bad back, his health concerns triggered worry that WGNU might fade into the sunset along with Norman. But Norman won't go away that easily.
Norman was water over the dam 48 years ago, but somehow he's survived. On Sunday, May 2, 1954, he was alone in a rented motorboat, cruising on Lake Taneycomo, when suddenly he was airborne. He had gone over the Ozark Beach Dam on the White River, falling 60 feet from the top of the dam and into the water.
Norman remembers the date clearly because when he got to the hospital, everyone was talking about what Stan Musial had done against the New York Giants that day back at the old Busch Stadium, the facility once known as Sportsman's Park, located at North Grand Boulevard and Dodier Street. In a doubleheader, Stan the Man hit five home runs.
Norman recovered from that fall, and it appears that he's better after his latest spill, though he spends much of his time in a wheelchair. He's at home.
"I'm right across the hall," says Norman. "All I have to do is yell, and I get someone from the radio station."
After owning WGNU for 41 years, Norman remains within earshot of the control room. And even after he's gone, St. Louis will be able to hear his echo -- for at least three years.

FAYETTE COUNTY, Texas -- KVUE.com is reporting that a traffic stop in Fayette Co. led to the arrest of a would-be drug trafficker and the confiscation of 455 lbs of marijuana.
Fayette Co. Sheriff Keith Korenek reported Friday that Deputy Randy Thumann and Lobos, a K9 partner pulled over a pickup truck pulling a trailer on I-10 near Flatonia for a traffic violation.
The driver of the truck said he was transporting goats from Laredo to Houston to sell. The deputy became suspicious and obtained consent to search the trailer. He found a "false floor" and inside were 91 bundles of marijuana, which weighed about 455 lbs.
The driver, Eric Luedke, aged 25, has been arrested and charged with Felony Possession of Marijuana 50-2,000 pounds. The truck, trailer and goats have been seized.
