Leftover Crack singer/guitarist Stza was arrested in New York at the Donut Social, an event marking the anniversary of the 1988 Tompkins Square Park Riot. Punknews has a news item with videos of Stza's performance (in the Star Fucking Hipsters) and his arrest. The Neither More or Less blog has a detailed post with photos from the event.
"Though May 1 became an important day for Socialists and Communists, state governments and less radical labor leaders feared that the date was too emotionally charged. In 1894, after President Grover Cleveland ordered the brutal suppression of the Pullman Strike, he realized that he had to do something to curry favor with the labor movement, which viewed him with contempt. Worried that a May 1 holiday would encourage rabble-rousing in commemoration of the Haymarket Riot, he followed the lead of several states and made the first Monday in September a federal holiday in honor of the workingman."
Deja vu, anyone? Wired's Listening Post blog reports:
"You can't call yourselves The Doors because you can't have The Doors without Jim Morrison," argued Densmore's attorney S. Jerome Mandel, summing up the legal conclusion of the disagreement that has torn the already fragmented legend into further shreds.
For details, peep the full post, and Associated Press article (via Wired).
Nat Damm, poster designer and drummer extraordinaire of Akimbo, will be selling his posters at Flatstock during Bumbershoot. He will have silkscreened concert posters, including the Biafra Five-O poster he designed, pictured above. (Sorry, we can't ask Nat to reserve a poster for you...)
Here is Nat's press release with all the info about the event:

Greg is trying to raise money for his Investigative Fund, specifically with a project he has been working on with Bobby Kennedy, Jr. Usually, we'd ask you to order his spoken word CDs directly from our mailorder, but please consider making a donation to the Palast Investigative Fund for signed copies of Greg Palast's CDs we released.
The New York Times reports that Coney Island now features a Waterboarding sideshow, created by a Fulbright grant-winning artist Steve Powers.
It looks at first like any other shuttered storefront near the boardwalk: some garish lettering and a cartoonish invitation to a delight or a scam - in this case there's SpongeBob SquarePants saying, "It don't Gitmo better!"
Read the full article. Going to Coney Island? Send us photos of this sideshow to share with Jello!
Just a heads up that there is a web-only Noam Chomsky interview on the In These Times website.
We have Chomsky spoken word CDs and some free mp3s right here
Akimbo celebrate their 10th anniversary this Fall--their very first show was in October 1998. To mark this occasion, they are putting on a special anniversary show on Saturday, September 27.
The lineup will feature Akimbo, Harvestman (with Steve von Till of Neurosis), and Helms Alee (members of Lozen and Harkonen). This is also a release party for Akimbo's Neurot Recordings release Jersey Shores, which is a concept album about a series of shark attacks that happened on the East Coast in 1916. They will play the entire album from start to finish, the way it was intended to be heard.
All of us at Alternative Tentacles feel really lucky and proud that Akimbo chose to spend some of their ten years working with us. They are amongst the hardest working bands we know, and we look forward to another decade--and more--of merciless rock from them!
This is a really special event, and we recommend that you get your tickets in advance.

Dash Rip Rock has a new video for their song "If You See Kay" from their 2007 opus Hee Haw Hell, a Southern-fried take on Dante's Divine Comedy. We're posting it below, so check it out and let us know how you like.
Dash has a few dates coming up in July, including a couple in Key West. Mmm...conch fritters.

If U See K
For those of you who couldn't make it to the shows...and for those who were a little light in the wallet at the show:
We're gonna give away the new Jello 7" single bundled with a Biafra Five-O t-shirt to THREE people.
We're pretty pooped from the event, so just e-mail with:
+ your full name
by 5pm PDT on JULY 10 and we'll draw three winners. We'll do our best to accommodate your size, but we may run out of certain sizes; in which case, you'll be sent a shirt in a bigger size. We figure it's easier to grow into a shirt than to slim down, no?
If you want to entertain us, tell us what kind of cake you'd make for Jello's 50th birthday. We got him a coffin-shaped vanilla cake with the AT bat logo, presented to Jello on stage by Nat and Jon from Akimbo. The Melvins got him TWO choco-vanilla swirl cakes--one with Tipper Gore and the other with Ted Kennedy. You can see the cakes in our Biafra Five-O photo albums on the Facebook and MySpace.
The Raw Story reports that the Senate may delay voting on the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 until after the July 4 weekend. We still have time to contact our Senators and tell them that we absolutely oppose warrantless wiretapping and granting immunity to corporations who aid in the government's spying activities.
MAPLight.org has a list of Democratic representatives who received contributions from telecom companies and changed their minds between the March 14 vote to reject retroactive immunity to telecoms and the June 20 vote that passed H.R. 6304 in the House. If you're a constituent of these reps, please ask them why they changed their vote, or rather, why their votes are for sale.
If you've been keeping up with Jello's spoken word, you know that one of his recent themes has been "keep an eye on Obama" or something to that effect, so we should tell you that The Progressive and the Huffington Post have stuff to say about Obama and FISA.

Photographic Prints
Hello, I appreciate your interest in photography and, especially, my photography.
So, what constitutes good photography? Creations, like books, movies, art, and people who help me to "feel" are very special in my life. For me, good photography is the same, good photography helps me to feel. That feeling may be awe, as in when I create a spectacular image of the Grand Canyon. The feeling might be relaxation, such as a fall landscape or waterfall. The feeling might be inspiration and connection, such as when I see a photo of another culture or architecture. And, the feeling might just be joy and contentment, as when I create and view an image of my kids. I hope that my images might evoke some of these same feelings and emotions in you, and that I can help you to feel such emotions in images that I might create for you.
By way of background, I'm a Midwesterner by birth. My "formal" training is in environmental sciences, and that kept me quite busy for many years. Now, I'm a full-time photographer and am absolutely loving it! My photography study and training have come over several years, and from shooting thousands and thousands of shots. I've been interested in the arts since I was young, so photography is a natural evolution for me, and it allows me to get to know, "see," and feel my subjects with much more intimacy. I certainly have a passion for the environment and photography, and I hope that it comes through in all of my photographs, including my photographs of people and things.
Tim Mulholland is a Fitchburg-based professional photographer, specializing in nature and landscape scenes, including panoramic images. His goal is to help bring a beautiful, memorable part of Wisconsin into your home, to help you reconnect with "home" and your peace and quiet.

Any info on this "bouncing bed"?
I am looking for a name for this crib? It has latches to deaden springs or to let down sides of the bed. The mattress is not original and I know it is at least 1920's or older as 93 year old father was raised as a baby along with 3 brothers and sisters in it....Thanks again for any help..

Based on what I can see, I don't think those coil springs are original to this crib, it's been modified. The crib itself dates from the last Quarter of the 19th Century. I've seen these with double coil rocker springs as can be found on platform rockers of the same period , but never upholstery coil springs.

WASHINGTON (WUSA) -- The House of Representatives has cleared out of town since they won't have a fiscal cliff deal to vote on this weekend. While both sides are talking about the need to compromise, it doesn't sound like either side is ready to make serious concessions.

Dear Bob,
I live about 60 minutes from the Canadian border and have opened an account in Canada in Canadian dollars. While they may not be as good as Swiss francs, will the Canadian dollar be an acceptable way to shelter wealth from a collapsing U.S. dollar?
Dear Rod,
You are right that Canadian dollars are not as sound as Swiss francs. Canadian dollars may provide you with a cushion, as Canada has done a pretty good job of weathering the recession. However, the Canadian economy is tightly linked to the American economy, so the Canadian dollar should in no way be considered a safe haven.
Best wishes,

It's 652 pages. I'm toying with doing a second edition if the publishers will tolerate the idea.
How many pages is it? This looks like a awesome linux book.
It's 652 pages. I'm toying with doing a second edition if the publishers will tolerate the idea.
I reviewed this over a year ago here: http://usalug.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=7452
Was a good book, I passed it along to one of my members after I did the review. I didn't realize it was you that wrote it.
I would be happy if it was possiblesure.. send me a copy and I'll review it on my blog
This will be over soon, and then I can ...
This is my first semester teaching the Advanced Linux class and I tossed the old book because it is junk. This book is just the ticket for getting my students involved in building/administering systems and discovering the power Linux delivers to them!
Thanks for the vote of confidence. I am currently upgrading the book to FC6 with an aim of having a second edition.
If anyone else is interested, in Australia the book is available through Dymocks bookstores for about $54.95 AUD. I ordered my copy today!
umm, what does exactly the last post even mean?

I am not used to colourless lip balms turning pink on application. So when Revlon Moon Drops Lipstick, Color Changing Color Bloom Pink Blossom turned a pretty pink, sure enough a wide and an extremely surprised grin "blossomed" on my face. "Oh my!! I love this!" was the exact feeling that rushed through me.

Helps to keep lips soft and colorfully protected. My friend suggested this product to me.

So writes the author of these books -- indeed very enchanting books, which do everything a great story book should. Few of these stories are well known; some appear in print for the first time. Most of the stories are saturated with the soul of chassidus. Others are honed with the incisiveness of Brisk. All are told with charm and color and love. To read this book is to be transported to a world of the past, a world of the spirit, where every day is an opportunity to gain the riches of a better, truer, eternal world. Read it and glow with the richness of a heritage miraculously captured between the covers of this beautiful book.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.
