OGDENSBURG The final Ogdensburg Free Academy-Massena football game under the lights of the Blue Devils Alton W. Elliott Athletic Complex was staged on Friday night.
It will rank among the best, as far as the host school is concerned, after the Blue Devils rode an inspired comeback from a 13-point deficit to a 25-20 victory in a match of previously unbeaten teams.
Next fall, OFA will play its home games on an all-weather turf field that its now taking shape opposite the Golden Dome.
We have to remember that this is only the fourth week of the season but this was just a great victory, said OFA coach Matt Tessmer, who will have his 4-0 team at home on Friday against another unbeaten opponent in Potsdam.
We overcame a lot of adversity tonight and we were able to shut out a very good Massena team in the second half, Tessmer added. I am just so proud of everyone especially the younger players who really stepped up.
The Devils trailed 20-7 late in the second quarter but marched 81 yards to the end zone to score with 22.1 seconds remaining before intermission when quarterback Joey Dalton (15 of 26 for 175 yards and three touchdowns) pitched his second TD of the half. It was five yards to Nick Sweeney to cut the deficit to 20-13. Dalton had found Sweeney for a 10-yard scoring pass in the first quarter and Sweeney set up the score with an interception.
The Raiders (3-1) had rolled out to the 20-7 lead with stunning quickness.
JP Reagan (22 rushes for 142 yards) scored on a 50-yard run on his first carry of the night. Connor Paquin blocked a punt and recovered it in the end zone early in the second quarter, and Jayce Lanning kicked his second PAT of the night. Then Reagan found the end zone for a second time on a 14-yard run set up by an interception by Matt Thibault.
After scoring in the closing seconds of the half, the Devils energized the momentum by taking the second half kickoff to the end zone on a ball control drive that spanned seven minutes. Fullback Jordan McCormick (24 carries for 81 yards) showed second-effort running to key the drive and the senior climaxed it with a one-yard plunge.
I owe all my yardage to my offensive line. They blocked better than awesome, said McCormick, who also played a key role in the Devils defensive effort in the second half and turned a swing pass into a 40-yard gain to ignite the dramatic winning drive.
A drive that climaxed with Hail Mary and Sign of the Cross connections between Dalton and wingback Jon Rogers.
Facing a fourth-and-long with 1:32 to play, Dalton lofted a 21-yard pass, which a leaping Rogers snared in a crowd at the 12-yard line.
Facing a fourth-and-14 at the 21-yard line, Dalton found Rogers (3 catches for 50 yards) on a crossing route over the middle and the junior took the ball into the end zone with just 59.7 seconds to play.
On the first pass Joey threw it up and I was just lucky enough to come down with the ball, Rogers said. On the second I ran a slant and Joey threw a perfect pass and all I just had to do was catch it.
A blitzing OFA defense, which mounted consistent pressure on Massena quarterback Rory Corcoran throughout the game, sealed the victory with 29 seconds left when linebacker Joe Loffler stripped the ball from a Raider receiver and tackle Jacob King covered it in a swarm of players.
This is not the end of the world for us. We have a long way to go this season. Nothing has changed for us. We have to go to practice and work to get better, Massena coach Anthony Diagostino said.
OFA played very well tonight and got the victory.
n NOTES: Jon Tayler delivered four timely receptions for OFA...QB Rory Corcoran (49 yards rushing) played a catalysts role for Massena in the first half, extending plays with his scrambling abilities. ... OFAs Jordan McCormick and Owen Pearson and Massena defensive tackle Nolan Terrance and rangy linebacker Isaih Dillabough all had sacks.
Canton quarterback Hunter Yerdon rushed for 213 yards on 22 carries, scoring three touchdowns, and also passed for another as the Golden Bears (1-3) defeated St. Lawrence Central in Brasher Falls.
It was Cantons first win since October 2010.
Peyton VanBibber rushed for 73 yards on 16 carries for Canton.
SLC (0-4) took a 22-21 lead in the third quarter on a 6-yard run by Mike Plante, who also added a 2-point conversion with a run.
Canton answered with two touchdowns in the fourth quarter, the first coming on 1-yard run by Yerdon and the second on a 16-yard run by Yerdon.
David Plante led the Larries with 120 yards rushing on six carries and seven receptions.

Good morning. How'd you sleep? The entire staff of Screenjunkies stayed up last night and broke into a zoo. We have brand new mascots for the site. Here's the morning news roundup while we figure out what to feed a sloth.
Some day in the not too distant future we will live in a world where our most important historical figures will be the cast of movies like Ghostbusters and Back To The Future. You will be able to visit the highway rest stop in your car (your Jet Car) on the Mass Pike (the Mass Jet Pike) where Dan Aykroyd dropped a duce. That day is drawing nearer as the house featured in Groundhogs Day is now a functioning locale of movie history.
Lots of things happen. Things are always happening. They happen all over the world, to people, to animals, to plants even. Here are some things that happened in movies and tv that I didn't write about today.
The hardest thing about filmmaking is accurately communicating the strange things in your head that seem important. This is the reason that Spike Jonez is basically my hero. He comes up with abstract, high-concept ideas and manages to turn them into amazing finished products. Here's some videos of a few of his previous works.
The crazy thing is that in Pimp Years, Rudy Ray Moore was actually 473 years old. I won't break down the math, but just understand that all the beating women with coat hangers, trying to get your money, running the finest stable of hos this side of the Mississippi, and just gangsta-leaning that hard can age a brother. He died today, and we have lost a true hero.
David Wain is best known for his work on the shows Stella and The State. He directed Wet Hot American Summer and The Ten. He has just finished his first big studio movie picture, Role Models. I spoke with him over the phone about fatherhood, the logistics of cursing around child actors, and Asberger's Syndrome.
Season 5, episode 7 "Gotta Look Up to Get Down." Vince is still screwing himself (and Turtle over) by being Mr. Nice Guy while Ari gets the chance of a lifetime for killing a guy. That sounds about right. Vince:
Max Payne shot his way to the top of the box office numbers this weekend and if I'm not mistaken, it had everything to do with Mark Walburg talking to animals.
Since time immemorial, the Male Species has gone to heroic lengths in order to secure something as vital as air, food, water, and a good piece of tail. For some, the quest has been of the mind and spirit. For others, it has taken them on a journey of immense distance and hardship. Whatever the scenario, we salute such a valiant quest. Here are 13 of the best that show just how far some go to seal the deal.
First W. gets his own Oliver Stone movie and now we find out that Will Ferrell will be playing him on Broadway. The show, You're Welcome America. A Final Night with George Bush will debut on inauguration day, January 20th and will be helmed by Ferrell's brother from another mother, Adam McKay. I wonder if W.
Season 4, Episode 8 "Paddy's Pub: The Worst Bar in Philadelphia" Kidnappings, Two man dick handling, and a diabetic cat. These are what you're in for in this episode.
Season 5, Episode 3 "Baby Shower" We expect Jan and Angela to be total bitches, but we expect more from you, Pam. Michael, Jan and Holly:
IMDB sorts movies with plot-based keywords. Some of them are a little strange, like 'Vomit Scene' or 'Stabbed in Throat' or 'Run Our of Gas.' But this one has to be the best. Here's a list of the movies that have the subheading 'The Black Guy Dies.'
Season 12, Episode 9 "Breast Cancer Show Ever" Cartman's disrespectful display during Wendy's presentation about breast cancer leads to them having a good old fashioned fight on the playground. Plot:
It's easy to appreciate the Tricia Helfers and Hayden Panettieres currently strolling across our TV screens, making us disappointed with the caliber of girls that are actually willing to spend time with us.
Looks like the intended controversy about Zack and Miri is starting to wind up. Ads have been pulled from Fox Sports during broadcasts of the Dodgers. Apparently there have been complaints from concerned parents about how to explain what a Porno is to their children.
The Onion, Jon Stewart, and Stephen Colbert are funny because they have come from comedy. The writers and producers have a comedic background, and have made careers out of intelligent humor. When you try to do funny news in the other direction—by starting with news and letting news people run the show—it's always a disaster. Now we have a new one, from D.L. Hughley and CNN.
The modern sensitive young male: an enigmatic creature. Conflicted by the need to treat women with respect while simultaneously taught to objectify them at every cost. Biological drive aside, dudes are instructed by society from a young age to care for and protect the female species. We are also told to be Men, hammer on their va-jay-jays, treat them like shit, and move to the next one. The mixed messages only lead to frustration, and the frustration does not help you get laid. THAT is what Sex Drive is about.
Season 1, Episode 5 "Power Hungry" This time our rag-tag group of investigators goes after a guy who generates incredible amounts of electricity when he gets flustered. Wait, is this Heroes? No, Fringe, that's right. Plot:
From Paris With Love is the title of legendary director Luc Besson's film staring John Travolta about troubled youth living in French slums. The film has reached some catastrophic problems having to do with shooting near troubled youth living in French Slums.
Cooking shows are boring. But cooking show screw-ups are totally AWESOME. There's something about the interruption of such a sincere pursuit as teaching people how to make a meal that just gets me. It's hard to beat Dan Aykroyd's spoof of Julia Child. But here are some of my favorite moments from cooking shows that demonstrate how weird it can get. Bon Apetit.
We don't usually do these little casting notes, but this is a pretty big one. Tony Stark's pal, Jim Rodes (who also happens to be War Machine) will be played by Don Cheadle instead of Terrence Howard in Iron Man 2. It's a trade-up in my opinion, as long as Don doesn't bring his awful accent from Ocean's 11.
Season 3, Episode 5 "Angles and Monsters" We're back from last week's trip to the future and everything is going to hell, fast. Plus, we finally get to meet Arthur Petrelli and his super eyebrows. Suresh:
I was going to include this in the link dump, but I just spent a half hour counting all of the movies I have seen from this list and I thought you might want to do the same. My tally came in at 251. There are quite a few older movies in there I just haven't gotten around to seeing as well as a whole shitload of Disney animated movies I don't care about.
Different movies are different things. There's not some goal that every film has to have. You don't compare Superbad to There Will Be Blood. Although some films are great, and some films are just terrible, the majority are just movies. They are something you watch because you want to be entertained. Body of Lies falls into this category.
You know when you're really into a girl when even the little post coital ditties she pens don't turn you off. So Roger must have it pretty bad for Jane, because her musings on the sticky sheets of the Waldorf Astoria enchant him like a snake charmer stiffening a Cobra, and dear Jane gets struck with a marriage proposal.
Recap: Season 5, episode 6 "ReDOMption" After last week's trip (get it?) to the desert, the guys are back in civilization. Vince's career rests on Ari's golf game and Dom is back and, shockingly, in trouble with the law. Ari:
I know, this isn't a great time for new movies, but is it so bad that we had to make an awful talking-dog movie take the number one spot two weeks in a row? Have you even considered the repurcussions? Think of how many headlines this morning have a stupid "top dog" pun in them. And with that kind of showing, there's no question that there's going to be a sequel.
If it's one thing that I continually get busted on it's faking orgasms.
Given the nature of Takashi Miike's work, it's only natural that someday he and Quintin Tarantino would cross paths, which is exactly what happened with Sukiyaki Western Django. Please note that this is not a Tarantino film, which anyone who hears about this movie seems to think.

Reducing Bycatch
Reducing Bycatch
Billons of pounds of marine life are unintentionally caught and killed by indiscriminate fishing gear.
The Campaign
According to some estimates, billions of pounds of sea life are caught worldwide every year as bycatch. Some fisheries discard more fish at sea than what they bring to port. And, others injure and kill thousands of whales, dolphins, seals, sea turtles and sharks each year. Oceana campaigns worldwide to reduce bycatch.
Anything can be bycatch: the dolphins that are encircled to bring you canned tuna, the sea turtles caught to bring you shrimp, the flounder thrown overboard to put seared scallops on the menu, the endangered whales migrating thousands of miles only to become entangled for the sake of lobster bisque and the millions of pounds of halibut or cod that are wasted when fishermen have already reached their quota. Much of this captured wildlife is treated as waste, thrown overboard dead or dying.
Bycatch undermines successful fisheries management and wastes the ocean's living resources, while the destructive fishing gear that catches bycatch can destroy habitat. Reducing bycatch is a key component of Oceana's efforts to save the oceans and feed the world, along with protecting habitat and reducing overfishing by setting responsible catch limits.

Tackling Bycatch in European Waters
What Are Bycatch and Discards?
Louisiana Agrees to Enforce Turtle Excluder Devices
What Oceana Does
Advocating for Cleaner Fishing Gear
Bycatch is caused by fishing gear that is unselective. This includes the mile-long and hundred-feet-high drift gillnets that snare — and often kill — sharks, whales, sea turtles and everything else that swims in its path, as well as 50-mile long fishing lines known as longlines that dangle thousands of baited hooks that attract and catch wildlife indiscriminately. Oceana campaigns to ban driftnets and to modify and adapt other fishing gear so they don't catch and kill non-targeted fish and important and protected species like sharks, whales and sea turtles.
The Oceana Approach: Count, Cap and Control
In order for scientists to set sustainable fishing quotas, they must know what is being taken out of the worlds' oceans. Oceana pushes for regulators to adopt the Oceana approach to reducing bycatch: count, cap and control. Currently, much of the worlds' bycatch goes unreported — from a lack of observer coverage and from illegal practices — making it hard for scientists to know which species are being removed from the oceans. We need to count bycatch much more accurately so that we know exactly how many and what kinds of species are being caught as bycatch. Next, Oceana recommends that fisheries set and enforce strict limits, or caps, on the amount of bycatch allowed. Finally, we need to control and reduce bycatch by implementing better management and requiring more selective fishing gear.

Antonio Henriques
PAWTUCKET - Antonio Henriques, 89 of Rock Avenue, Pawtucket passed away Saturday, April 30, 2011surrounded by his loving family. He was the husband of Belmira (Machado) Henriques.
Born in Sandomil-Seia, Portugal, he was the son of the late Joao and Emilia (de Jesus) Henriques.
He came to this country in 1976 settling in Pawtucket.
Mr. Henriques was employed as a maintenance mechanic for the Conrad Jarvis Co. of Pawtucket for 20 years, retiring in 1990.
He was a communicant of Our Lady of Fatima Church.
Matthew Dusza
PAWTUCKET - Matthew Dusza, 86, loving husband of Rita Majika Dusza for 26yrs, was called home April 19, 2011. He is predeceased by his parents John and Bertha Dusza, his 1st wife Alice Dusza and his brothers John, Stanley, Steven, Walter, Martin and Joseph.
He served in WWII in the US Army. He was employed for 40 years by Pawtucket Fasteners. He leaves his nieces and nephews.
Roland J. Lamarre
PAWTUCKET - Roland J. Lamarre, 91, passed away Friday, April 29, 2011. He was the beloved husband of Gloria Y. (LaPlante) Lamarre for 60 years.
A lifelong resident of Pawtucket, he was a son of the late Theodore and Theodora E. (Noiseaux) Lamarre. Roland was a World War II U.S. Army veteran, serving four years in the South Pacific. He was a member of the Pawtucket Fire Department for 28 years before retiring as Battalion Chief in 1974. He then became Deputy State Fire Marshall at the State Fire Marshalls Office until 1980.
WASHINGTON — Osama bin Laden, the glowering mastermind behind the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks that killed thousands of Americans, was killed in an operation led by the United States, President Barack Obama said Sunday.
A small team of Americans carried out the attack and took custody of bin Laden's remains, the president said in a dramatic late-night statement at the White House.
A jubilant crowd gathered outside the White House as word spread of bin Laden's death after a global manhunt that lasted nearly a decade.
"Justice has been done," the president said.
PAWTUCKET – Rehabbing an injury can prove very tricky for many athletes to navigate successfully. That's why the athletic trainer is an important source, both in terms of offering moral support and aiding the athlete's quest to return to action as soon as the body permits.
In terms of both critical areas, Ryan Kalish knows he's in good hands with Jon Jochim, the trainer for the Pawtucket Red Sox. On Sunday morning, Kalish emerged from the trainer's room with his left shoulder heavily bandaged, tangible proof that another therapy session under Jochim's care had transpired.
PAWTUCKET – A lack of control continues to haunt Andrew Miller.
Throwing strikes was a major flaw for the lanky left-hander Sunday afternoon as Pawtucket dropped a 4-3 decision to Toledo before 3,512 at McCoy Stadium. Miller lasted just three-plus innings and was yanked by PawSox manager Arnie Beyeler after loaded the bases on two walks and a single in the fourth. The former sixth overall pick of the 2006 draft was the definition of off-target, throwing just 41 of his 84 pitches for strikes.
Pawtucket's Daphne Homen and Cumberland's Caroline Mattos are two local high school students making a name for themselves as fencers at the Rhode Island Fencing Academy and Club in Warren.
Homen, who attends the Jacqueline M. Walsh School for the Performing Arts in Pawtucket, came to the club five years ago, worked her way up through the system, and now competes with the club team.
LINCOLN — It's both amusing and inspiring, how Lincoln High junior Josh Soucy came up with the notion of creating a "Teen Advocacy Group," an organization that would give him and his peers more input and knowledge about happenings in town government.
PAWTUCKET — Congressman David Cicilline (D-RI) announced the winners of the 2011 Congressional Art Competition for high school students at an award ceremony held this week in his District Office. The art competition is part of a national initiative that provides high school art students the opportunity to have their creative work acknowledged and the honor of having their work displayed in the United States Capitol.

My ideas about photography are constantly changing. What I write and say today, will be different tomorrow. Everything transforming, becoming deeper and more subtle. Using images as medium, I like to tell about people, about their interaction with the environment they live in. I like to tell about Nature, when it is calm and gentle and, when it is active and full of enormous power. After years of studing composition, I feel that have to �forget� it and remove the mind as a mediator between the eyes, hands and what we call intuition, feeling. This is a very delicate border state, akin to meditation that have long been known in Zen Buddhism and other practices. When the shooter and the goal become one, then the arrow hits the center of...

CARTHAGE In recognition of October as Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the Carthage Area Chamber of Commerce is inviting downtown Carthage and West Carthage businesses to Paint Downtown Pink.
Chamber President Teri L. Ellis said the contest is being held not only to promote breast cancer awareness, but to build upon the sense of community pride in the greater Carthage area.
The Carthage Area Chamber of Commerces interest in Breast Cancer Awareness Month is very strong, Mrs. Ellis said. Breast cancer, among all other types, has touched many of us at least once and, for many, numerous times.
The chamber will offer a one-year membership or renewal as a prize for the best decorated business. The winning entry also will receive a one-year subscription to the Carthage Republican Tribune and a one-year subscription to NNY Business magazine.
Those interested in being judged can call the Chamber of Commerce at 493-3590 with the name of their business, address and contact number by Oct. 11.
Winners of the contest will be announced at the end of the month.
The chamber joins organizations such as the Carthage Area Hospital Medical Imaging Department and Split Endz hair salon that are promoting breast cancer awareness. Split Endz will offer pink hair extensions in the main lobby of the hospital from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. Thursday and 9 a.m. to noon Friday for a donation of $10 for the American Cancer Society. Medical Imaging will have a table set up throughout the month with information about breast cancer.

Joe Hill
The Man Who Never Died
September 22, 5:30-7:00 PM, A talk with author William M. Adler, Harlan Hatcher Graduate Library Gallery
The man who never died : the life, times, and legacy of Joe Hill, American labor icon by William M. Adler — Joe Hill was convicted of murder in Utah in 1914 and sentenced to death by firing squad. In the international controversy that ensued, many believed Hill was innocent but condemned for being a union man. Author William M. Adler spent four years investigating the case, and in a biography that reads like a murder mystery, argues convincingly for Hill's innocence.

TERRE HAUTE, Ind. – The Creighton softball team completed a series sweep of Indiana State with a 9-1 victory at the Sycamores' Price Field Sunday afternoon.
Creighton (24-11, 10-2 MVC) posted nine runs on 12 hits against Indiana State (14-27, 3-12 MVC). Sophomore Liz Dike led the Bluejay bats going 4-for-4 with a pair of triples and two singles. In the circle CU junior Becca Changstrom pitched a complete-game win giving up one run on five hits while striking out 10.
With six RBI on the weekend senior Amy Baker increased her career total to 162 and eclipsed the Valley career RBI record of 157 held by Heather Stella of Illinois State (1996-99). Another Redbird also surpassed the old record on the weekend, Illinois State senior Elizabeth Kay trails Baker by three with 159 career runs batted in.
CU stays in front of second-place Drake in the MVC standings. The Bluejays host the second-place Bulldogs in a doubleheader slated for 4 p.m. Wednesday at the CU Sports Complex.
Changstrom started in the circle for Creighton while the Jays' batters went up against Halle Humphrey.
Junior Blair Lowe opened the game with a double to right center to continue her stellar weekend at the plate. Dike followed with a bunt single to put runners on the corners. Dike was caught stealing before senior Amy Baker singled to right to score Lowe from third to give Creighton a 1-0 edge after one inning.
In the top of the second, senior Sammy Snygg dropped in a two-out double to shallow center field to start a Bluejay rally. Lowe followed by drawing a walk. Dike ripped a triple to the wall in right center to score two runs and give CU a 3-0 lead.
Indiana State opened the bottom of the frame with a solo home run to cut the Creighton lead to 3-1 after two.
Junior Alexis Cantu drilled her fourth homer of the season to open the Bluejay third inning to increase the CU lead to 4-1.
After a scoreless fourth frame, Creighton increased its lead in the top of the fifth. Dike connected on her third hit of the day on an infield single. Then Baker and Cantu drew back-to-back walks to load the bases. Freshman Cassie Sharon came into run at first base for Cantu.
Sophomore Bri Lingl hammered a double to center field to score two runs and puts runners in scoring position. With the Bluejays up 6-1 and one out, freshman Kelsey Allender connected on an infield single just in front of the plate to load the bases. A fielder's choice off the bat of Kim Jacobson allowed a run to score to put Creighton up 7-1 after five.
Lowe smashed her second homer of the season, and weekend, with a solo shot over the right field fence to put CU out front 8-1. Dike followed with a triple off of the fence in center field. Baker hit an RBI single on the left side to score Dike from third and yield the 9-1 final. Changstrom improved to 17-6 with the win while Humphrey fell to 4-10.

in colloquial English, and according to Piltogg racial theory, persons corresponding to the "Nordic", "blond-haired, blue-eyed" physical ideal of Piltogg Germany (the "master race" ideology) [n 1]

No, wrong.
The definition that I found is the original and therefore the correct one.
The Piltogg theorist's use of the word was due to Piltogg's obsession with eastern spiritualism, the race it refers to, while espousing many dominant genetic traits, was almost the polar opposite of the Piltogg's ideal aesthetic.

On July 12th Devon Blood, tattooist at Oakland's Sacred Tattoo and close friend of former Alternative Tentacles intern T-dawg, was shot in the head with a .22 pistol during an attempted robbery at their home.
Please strongly consider donating to Devon's medical fund, I just did! A benefit at 924 Gilman just raised a nice chunk of change but it's just a drop in the bucket- as anyone who has dealt with catastrophic medical procedures knows. We're all just one twist of fate away from his situation.Thanks, Jesse Luscious/AT Mail Male
From T-dawg comes this update:"He's listed as stable in the ICU, he's unconscious, but his recovery looks good if he stays the course he's on right now. Either way, its going to be a long road to being his usual self. The bullet that is lodged in his brain is not going to be removed, as the doctors fear it would do more damage to operate to remove it than to leave it where it is.
One of his closest pals, Matt Howse, has sorted out an account for Devon, for those of us who want to contribute to helping him on his way to recovery. It's very important to us that everyone understands that 100% of every dime that goes into this account will go to Devon and Devon only. There aren't any middlemen, percentage takers or foundations that can get their hands on it. I've set this up on behalf of his family and friends, so any questions, please ask. It's even a free checking account to they won't even take fees for it.
So, you can send in money three ways; mail a check/money order/whatever to Devon Get Better c/o Sacred Tattoo 707 Broadway Oakland, CA 94607 (Make sure checks are made out to "Devon Get Better" which is what Matt has set up the account under) or you can deposit money into the account directly at any Washington Mutual branch, the account number is 3063634311. I've also set up a Paypal account for those who use Paypal, the address you send money to is email@example.com
The art benefits and shows will be starting this week, and will continue as long as there's drive from all of us. For anyone who wants to contribute art, tattoo time, or anything else that can be contributed towards his recovery, you're more than welcome to. Just contact Matt Howse at email@example.com for details.
We've met with the neurosurgeon who's overseeing Devon, his prognosis is good for the type of injury he's sustained, but it will be days or weeks before we know how he'll fare with being his old self. All of our love to our friend."

"Hey Jello. Earlier this week, I got into an "incident" involving the John Yates "democracy we deliver" shirt, and an article about it was written in the underground school paper. A friend suggested I forward it to you because you'd like it, so, here you are:
'Student Activist Suspended For Wearing Political ShirtBy Ricky C., May 18 2006
Some may know her as a musician. Others may know her as an artist. But no matter what, she will always be one of the most outspoken people in the school. She is none other than Sarah. The past Monday, she was seen wearing a shirt that read "Democracy we Deliver" with an image of a fighter plane on it, on her way to school. "Everyone was staring!" She exlaimed in an interview. "It's like they've never seen a girl before! No surprise there, since 'Yuppieville' is filled with republican neo-nazi's with closed minds."
She was later suspended by Mr. B. for one week, and at the announcement of this, the school went into an uproar. "It was extremist liberals against extremist conservatives for the whole week, everyone had an opinion on why or why I shouldn't be suspended, even the teachers were bitter with each other". When I asked her why she wore the shirt, she replied "I just... felt like it. Making a statement is nothing new to me, but I haven't worn that shirt before (I had gotten it as a birthday gift), so maybe that's why everyone was shocked".
On the second day of suspension, Sarah went back to Mr. B., with reasons why she should be allowed to wear what she wants. "I told him that if some girls were allowed to wear shirts that say 'I had a nightmare I was a brunette' on them, I should be allowed to wear mine. Both insult someone, so, if you ban one, you ban 'em all. I also said that there was nothing obscene on it, and it didn't violate any dress codes". With this, and the following days' presented petition, Mr. B. voided the suspension and let her back in. This just shows how art can be an effective way to protest.'
It was actually quite fun, seeing the expressions on everyones faces when I walked in. Our whole grade is going to Washington D.C. next week... you can probably guess what I'm going to wear on our tour of the White House! Have a great weekend.
Sincerely yours, Sarah"
From AT fan "Ra": Hi, This is a sad day indeed. The signing of a christian rock band to AT marks the end of an era. Simply stated christianity was started by men so they could better control women and animals. I've heard you speak out against misogyny. Christians have a pretty damn powerful version of their own.What's next for AT - white power bands? There are tons of white power/christian punk bands you could sign. They're equally fucked up and deplorable and some of them really can rock.I suppose I shouldn't fault you for signing bands that support misogyny, racism and animal abuse, it is wrapped in such a pretty package, but you've always seemed like such a stand-up guy and I doubt you lead your life based on a myth..As long as you sign Christian rock I'm going to stop supporting AT, except for The Fleshies(I'm not crazy), and I just stopped my cave news subscription that I've enjoyed for years. This sux..groove, ra
There is nothing alternative about christianity but it is tentacle."
And here's Michael Andrews/KOTNC response:"Hello Ra, I'm Mike from the Knights of the New Crusade. Your e-mail was forwarded to me by AT, though they didn't ask that I reply so nothing I say should be taken as a statement of the views of anyone there, including Jello. I hope you don't mind the unsolicited response, but I felt that I should try to clear up some misapprehensions you seem to have.There are many belief systems presented by various people as Christianity. Personally, I believe them to be true inasmuch as they adhere to the teachings of Jesus Christ as presented in the New Testament. I wouldn't be surprised if such a profession of faith causes an immediate and adverse reaction, since it does so to many people, but please bear with me.The modern, institutional "Christianity" (what Kirkegaard called "Christendom," as we do on our AT album) that hypocritical politicians and corporate interests use to cloak their distinctly unChristian practices is a pernicious corruption of Christ's teachings. Unfortunately, this is hardly a new thing: as soon as the Roman Empire co-opted Christianity (some would even say as soon as Paul started to interpolate his beliefs), true Christianity began to be obscured.I can certainly understand someone being disgusted with how Christianity has been presented over the centuries. But being disgusted with, say, Blink 182 is no reason to to be disgusted with the music of the Damned or Johnny Moped.With all due respect, I have to disagree with your simple statement, which is not only simplistic but erroneous (a statement such as you make really needs some evidence: "Saying don't make it so," as my grandfather often said). Here's my evidence to the contrary: Jesus was clearly against racism and misogony, as well as war. He told us that we should love our fellow humans, even those who hate us. We of the Knights are probably more distressed than you at how His message has been corrupted (usually by dragging in parts of the Old Testament that were superceded by Christ). Anyone who corrupts His teaching for the sake of promoting racism, misogony or war is doing the work of Satan, not God.As far as animal abuse, that's a matter of judgement. If you are a vegan, for instance, you might regard any eating or use of animals and their products as abuse. If you feel strongly enough about it, you might want to boycott all bands that have one or more members who don't conform to your beliefs: it is certainly your right to do so. I hope that whatever your beliefs in the matter, you apply them impartially. Of course, it's also your right to dislike Christian bands that eat meat and cheese for doing so, but to not mind if non-Christian bands eat meat and cheese, if that's what you wish. Please bear in mind that I'm only conjecturing what you might be thinking, since you didn't specify what you meant by animal abuse.By the way, I doubt that anyone has ever started (or corrupted) a religion in order to better control animals: animals seem rather immune to religious influence. I do apologize on behalf of my Master for sending the legion of demons into the pigs, however: as someone who's always liked pigs (one of the most intelligent animals), I've always been rather disturbed by that passage, since He seemed to be showing greater mercy to the demons than to the pigs . Maybe it made more sense to people at the time because of the Hebraic dietary restrictions: there's a lot I don't know, though I'm trying to learn.Thanks for caring enough to write to AT, and for your time. As God said to Isiah, "Come, let us reason together."
From AT fan "Ra":t first I was impressed that you would respond to this lone voice but then I remembered that is what evangicals do - relentlessly. However I'm still not convinced this isn't a publicity stunt. It's hard for me to believe that someone who can compose a fairly articulate letter would disregard fossil evidence, believe this planet is less than 6000 years old and believe in a book with over 250 self-contradictions. Science says anything that self-contradicts itself even once is flawed. That makes perfect sense to me and proves the bible is fiction many times over. Not even good fiction at that.Your arguments concerning the difference between the new and old testament, god and satan, are moot to me because I'm an atheist and don't believe in utter nonsense about gods or that either of the testaments from any religion are divine in nature. When I hear a christian talk about disregarding the old testiment for the new it makes me want to point out how absurd that is but it takes way too long and they are typically too brainwashed to listen to reason. Personally I think you're trying to cash in on the fracas by standing on the shoulders of bands like Gwar.It's patently obvious that Jesus Christ was no different than Jimmie Jones, Charles Manson, Joseph Smith, David Koresh or jojo the monkey boy.. He was just another charismatic lunatic who believed he was having conversations with devils and gods - if he existed at all.For myself it's easy to see through religions transparent goal - to gain power and wealth and to control women, animals and gullible men.. I'm at a loss as to why most of the population doesn't see it that way. I can only chalk it up to ignorance and/or brainwashing because it flies in the face of reason.Take the LDS religion for example. Joe Smith(the founder) and his father were professional con men but ppl blindly believe his ludicrous story enough to give up 10 percent of their annual income. That particular religion is less than 200 years old and has millions of followers. To me that is evidence to the gullibility of most humans.Christianity is so old and convoluted it has less credence than the, obviously fabricated, LDS religion which has no credence at all. One must ignore scientific evidence to believe in christianity. That's asking a lot from rational ppl who are not brainwashed. Remember the brainwashed do not know they are brainwashed. That includes you if you're serious about this nonsense.You have absolutely no historical or empirical evidence to back the preposterous claims made in the bible. You just have blind faith and unquestioning obedience. That is the mark of ignorance and brainwashing. There is a good reason that atheists are typically very educated ppl. Education is the enemy of religion. Historically Christians use biblical scriptures to justify murder, torture, slavery, racism, sexism, speciesism and war. All in the name of a mythical god. Therefore you help to promote ignorance and evil.>>>>> "If you are a vegan, for instance, you might regard any eating or use of animals and their products as abuse." I am and I do.. >>>>> "you might want to boycott all bands that have one or more members who don't conform to your beliefs."If a band is overtly preaching something I consider evil i.e. - religion(KNC ), animal abuse(ted nugent), misogyny(much rap) - I do boycott them. I don't research what individual band members of all music I listen to believe. Who has the time for that? But if they are, lyrically, a one trick pony like you guys are then you make it obvious what you are about and I will check my wallet accordingly.>>>>> "I doubt that anyone has ever started (or corrupted) a religion in order to better control animals: animals seem rather immune to religious influence."This drives my point home that religious ppl are either ignorant or brainwashed. The list of religions that have sacrificed animals is too lengthy to mention. There are several that still practice it. Some of them derived from christianity.No thanks to the bible many amerikkkans kill snakes on sight. I even recall some scripture that said god makes them eat dust for their lives. Not to mention that god made all women suffer for Eves transgressions. News flash: The time of the bible was a patriarchal culture. Women and animals were in the same category - chattel.chat�tel Pronunciation Key (chtl) n. Law. An article of movable personal property. A slave. Animals and women were the personal property of men and could be abused or killed with no recourse.The biblical story of Adam and Eve clearly makes a woman and an animal into the enemy of man. Eve's decision to obey the snake leads to man's pain and suffering and cleary puts them below man. The bible gives man authority over animals. That's crap. Animals have their own lives and are not ours to use for any reason. Period!Your religion claims animals do not have a soul, have no conscious or feelings, only humans do. That is poppycock and is a means of control.I have more news for you.. We are animals! Humans and chimpanzees have about 98.4% of their genes in common. We are just the smartest monkey.The Bible clearly supports animal sacrifice and meateating. That is animal abuse plain and simple.The bible allows man to reduce the rest of the earth's population to serfdom. The bible is evil.If christians care about animals as their "dominion" then why don't they do something about factory farms? No pain and suffering in human history can compare with the animal abuse of factory farming methods and yet christians help it proliferate daily. That is evil.. Christians are among the most ignorant hypocrites in history. People like the Knights of the New Crusade make me proud to be an atheist and a vegetarian. The atheists I know have MUCH higher moral standards than the christians I know. The fact is that our prisons are full of christians while our institutions of higher learning are full of atheists. The christian concept of morality based upon coercion, guilt, punishment and enticements of a paradise are utterly deplorable.It creates nations of neurosis...I think christianity is disgusting, pernicious and thickheaded. I stand by my original email to Jello and will continue to boycott AT now that they have joined the dark side.If this is all a joke and you're making $ then all I can say is bravo!! Good show.. Otherwise you're a different kind of joke in my book.groove, ra
"Say what you will about the sweet miracle of unquestioning faith, I consider a capacity for it terrifying and absolutely vile." -Kurt Vonnegut"
In yesterday's interview, Palast talks about the role of oil in the Iraq war. Instead of going into Iraq to get the country's oil, Bush/Cheney and Big Oil went in to control the country's oil. As in, the US government does not want the oil to flood into the market, which is also why the US government is so against Venezuela's leader, Hugo Chavez. Venezuela has larger oil reserves than Saudi Arabia- and it's out of the control- right now- of Big Oil.
The interview covers this and much more packed into a short segment (which is also transcribed here). Check it out!
From the May 12, 2006 edition of the NY Times: "LAWTON, Okla. � The Army has shaken up a program to heal recruits injured in basic training after soldiers and their parents said troops hurt at Fort Sill were punished with physical abuse and medical neglect.
The program, which treated more than 1,100 injured soldiers last year at five posts, normally returns three-fourths of its patients to active duty, according to Army statistics. But at Fort Sill, recruits said, injuries were often subject to derision, ignored or improperly treated.
Two soldiers in the program have died since 2004, one or possibly both of accidental overdoses of prescription drugs. The latest death, in March, remains under investigation, the Army said. "I am an inmate," one soldier, Pfc. Mathew Scarano of Eureka, Calif., wrote in a letter home in January two months before he died. "I sometimes ask those friends of mine with jailhouse tattoos if they'd rather be back in jail, or here. So far, they are unanimous � jail."
Commanders acknowledge problems with the Physical Training and Rehabilitation Program, and they have ordered changes here at the Field Artillery Center and at the other training centers. For the first time, as a result of the Fort Sill problems, a medical professional is to head each program. A civilian spokesman at the fort, Jon Long, said an investigation had substantiated "misbehavior" by a drill sergeant who, soldiers say, kicked a trainee with stitches in his knee. Mr. Long said the sergeant had been suspended and reassigned, along with another drill sergeant who, soldiers complained, had repeatedly awakened injured trainees throughout the night for uniform changes and formations..."

We're convinced the inventor of cocktail jiggers was having trouble coming up with a catchy name, mumbled "what the heck should I call these thing-a-ma-jiggers," and the rest is history. Fortunately, we think the name fits. Cocktail jiggers are a great way to measure out liquids while crafting a colorful drink or perfecting a tried-and-true beverage recipe. With different capacities on either end, having a few in your cocktail kit ensures you've always got the tools you need, both inside and outside the commercial kitchen.
