I just can't fail to quote & link Violet's amazing post about her early life and why this JT Leroy cultural spazattack is not about a pseudonym, or gender identity, or a clever hoax, or any of that shit.
I hate to give any more ink (ok...pixels) to a hoax that will assuredly only result in vast amounts of fame and bazillion-dollar movie deals for its perpetrators. But Violet of all people has earned the right to bitch about it, so here goes:
Reading LeRoy's book brought so much back for me that I didn't see why I should re-live it. I'm okay now; it took me years before I could even tell anyone about my life prior to the age of 20. But I do remember one thing very clearly right now. On the streets we had a word for people like so-called LeRoy. It was "poser."
Susie Bright up next, in a stirring moment from her blog post on JTL:
I'm embarrassed to tell you all the nutty things I did. Every time he was mean, or screwed up, I always told myself to stay steady and kind. Why did I make the effort? I'm no saint. But from listening to him, I believed the childhood he described surviving would have killed anyone else.
I know Susie, I adore Susie, and I respect her. She's been a big influence on me, and she's brave to fess up. Which is why I have something I need to say to everyone who's ever covered for anyone in the community who was a fuckwad whether because of drugs, liquor or just plain being an asshole (it is causing me physical pain not to mention names here, but I won't). This goes out to everyone, myself included, who has uttered meaningless platitudes about the elephant in the living room and what a nice shade of gray it is while said elephant lays a fat stinking turd in your lap.
When we as professionals make such judgements -- "That person's childhood would have killed anyone else," "This person can act badly, it's OK because his Dad slapped him around," "Oh, he couldn't help himself," "She didn't mean it," "That's just the way she is," we do a great disservice to the other people who ALSO survived, and didn't ask for any favors. We make a decision about whose childhood was REALLY bad -- and fuck everyone else. It is not even a hair's breadth from "This person was abused, so just smile and nod when they go ballistic" to "That person abused me, but it was my fault."
Want to know a secret? Of course you don't, but I'll tell you anyway. I've spent way too much of my life covering for drunks, drug fiends, liars, opportunists and losers, and I understand how humiliating it can be when you discover they used the living fuck out of you and put you away wet. When someone else gets used and I don't, I find that getting to say "I told you so" is about the least satisfying thing I have ever experienced. I am so hot and bothered about what Susie went through because I have done that shit myself, a million times it sometimes feels like, and it hurts me to remember.
So, for the record: Fuck off, JT or whoever you are or aren't. Just fuck the fuck off.

Puerco Pibil - Worth the time and effort!!
I'm pretty stingy when it comes to sharing recipes, but this one is just too good not to pass along. It actually comes from the "Once Upon a Time in Mexico" DVD. Robert Rodriguez, the director, sort of shows you how to make this recipe. My husband and I decided to try it... Well, he asked and I cooked...
I have modified the recipe slightly since I could not find exactly what the original had asked for. I make this several times a year, generally when we're having some sort of gathering. Unfortunately, I never end up with leftovers. This is definitely a crowd pleaser.
If you are not good with really spicy foods, then choose your peppers wisely. I use 2 habaneros, but clean them out really well. Doesn't make too spicy, but gives enough of a kick. Also, please never try to cook this in a crock pot as it will do nothing but hinder the outcome of this fabulous dish!
*5-8 pounds pork butt, cut into 2 inch cubes
3 1/2 tablespoons annato powder (can be found in your grocers Ethnic Aisle)
2 teaspoons cumin powder
1 tablespoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon whole cloves
8 whole allspice berries
2 habanero Peppers, fresh or dried, cleaned and minced
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup white vinegar
8 garlic cloves
2 tablespoons salt
5 lemons
1 shot of tequila (optional)
Preparation Instructions
Grind the whole cloves, and whole allspice in a spice grinder or coffee grinder or mini food processor.
With a blender, blend the cleaned and chopped habanero peppers with the orange juice, vinegar, garlic and salt.
Mix the dry spices with the liquid.
Add the juice of 5 lemons and a nice splash of tequila.
Place the cubed pork butt in a large zip lock bag and add the marinade. Soak minimum 4 hours to overnight, in refrigerator, turning several times.
Line (8x13) **baking pan with aluminum foil. Pour in pork along with the marinade. Cover and seal the pan with foil. Bake in a 325 F degree oven for 4 hours.
*I use 8 pounds of pork, as 5 never turns out to be enough.
** I use an aluminum baking pan - that way you can dispose of it and clean up is MUCH easier! If you do this, you will not need to line the pan with foil.
The aromoa that fills your house about 2.5 into the cooking is awesome. This serves well with Spanish Rice though some people perfer white rice.
I hope that someone will loves this recipe as much as my family does! Enjoy!

A convicted British drug trafficker cowered in a sealed room as police came to arrest him in Spain after 13 years on the run.
09:51, UK, Tuesday 09 July 2013
One of Britain's most wanted men has been caught hiding naked in a panic room at his luxury Spanish villa.
Convicted drug trafficker Mark Lilley was captured when more than 40 armed officers smashed their way into the house in Malaga.
Officers were unable to get into his panic room, but he surrendered when he realised there was no escape.
He had rushed to the sealed room - hidden behind a wardrobe in his bedroom - after dogs he kept in his garden began barking, alerting him to the dawn raid on Saturday.
Lilley, who went on the run in 2000 when he skipped bail during his trial, was able to watch the raid unfolding with a computer linked to CCTV cameras.
Footage of the operation shows officers climbing over a gate before running to Lilley's front door and breaking it down with a battering ram.
He is seen being handcuffed with a strip of cloth wrapped around his waist.
A police helicopter hovered above the villa in the Alhurin de la Torre area during the raid, which was a joint operation by the Spanish National Police and Serious Organised Crime Agency (Soca).
A handgun was recovered.
Extradition proceedings have begun to return Lilley to the UK.
After going on the run, Lilley, 41, from Warrington, Cheshire, was given a 23-year prison sentence in his absence for masterminding a large-scale drug operation and firearm offences.
Dave Allen, head of the fugitives unit at Soca, said: "Lilley was a dangerous man with access to firearms. He had evaded capture for a long time by moving around Spain and using false identities.
"My message for other fugitives on the run is a simple one - we will hunt you down and you will face justice for your crimes."
Roger Critchell, director of operations at Crimestoppers, said: "We are extremely relieved that this dangerous drug dealer has been arrested and will be made to face justice."
Lilley was the 51st suspect located out of 65 wanted by Operation Captura officers.
Anyone with information about fugitives can call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.

text: Slide Fire Officials Preparing for Oak Creek Emergencies By Justin Regan • Jun 24, 2015 U.S. Forest Service As a result of last year's slide fire, the threat of flooding in Oak Creek canyon remains high during monsoon season. As Arizona Public Radio's Justin Regan reports, Coconino County officials are using an emergency siren system and short-range radio transmitters to communicate potential threats to the public. The Slide Fire: 1 Year Later - Ecological Recovery Of The Burn Area By Gillian Ferris • May 22, 2015 Arizona Highways Every day this week, we've been hearing from some of the people closest to last year's Slide Fire in Oak Creek Canyon. We've checked in with investigators, evacuees, emergency responders and firefighters. And today, we hear from two fire scientists about the ecological recovery of the burn area. We start with Rory Steinke, Watershed Manager for the Coconino National Forest and leader of the Burn Area Emergency Response Team. The Slide Fire: 1 Year later - The Problem With Cell Phones By Laurel Morales • May 21, 2015 Our Slide Fire series continues today with a look at how cell phones worked - and DIDN'T work in Oak Creek Canyon during the fire. Thousands of visitors drive through the scenic switchbacks every day. But once they descend below the canyon's rim, cell phones generally become useless. In an emergency situation, there's no 911 access for several miles. As KJZZ's Laurel Morales reports, that was a big problem when the Slide Fire broke out. Brain Food: How The Slide Fire Changed Community Preparedness By Bonnie Stevens • May 21, 2015 KNAU/Bonnie Stevens KNAU's Slide Fire series continues with a special installment of Brain Food. In early May of 2014, Coconino County emergency responders practiced a community disaster exercise. At the time, none of the participants knew just how soon they'd have to use it in "real time". Slide Fire: 1 Year Later... Fighting the Blaze By Ryan Heinsius • May 20, 2015 USFS When fighting the Slide Fire one year ago, crews had to negotiate some of the most challenging terrain in the Southwest along with extremely dry and windy conditions. The 21,000-acre fire became the largest in the history of the Coconino National Forest, and more than a thousand personnel were called in to fight it. Arizona Public Radio's Ryan Heinsius recently spoke with Coconino National Forest Fire Staff Officer Don Muise about how what officials and firefighters approached battling the blaze and what they took away from the experience. Earth Notes: Where There's Smoke, Plants Notice By Peter Friederici • May 20, 2015 USDA Forest Service Smoke is a complicated substance. Most people who live in or near western forests have a good feel for how it affects people. But what's less well known is that it affects plants, too. Slide Fire: 1 Year Later... Residents Reflect on Evacuation By Justin Regan • May 19, 2015 Justin Regan This week, KNAU is airing a series of stories marking one year since the Slide Fire ripped through Oak Creek Canyon. We're sharing a collection of perspectives and experiences from some of the people closest to the first; investigators, fire crews, researchers, and evacuees. Hundreds of people fled under evacuation orders as the wildfire raced up the narrow canyon. In today's installment of KNAU's series The Slide Fire: 1 Year Later, residents of Oak Creek reflect on what it was like to leave that day not knowing how long they'd be gone, or what they'd be coming home to. Arizona Public Radio's Justin Regan produced this audio postcard. Slide Fire: 1 Year Later... The Investigation Continues By Aaron Granillo & Gillian Ferris • May 18, 2015 InciWeb This week marks one year since the Slide Fire broke out in Oak Creek Canyon. It burned more than 33 square miles and forced the evacuation of nearly 300 residents and visitors. It now stands as the largest wildfire in the history of the Coconino National Forest. Each day this week, KNAU will revisit the Slide Fire: checking in with evacuees, taking a look at how flora and fauna are doing, hearing from local officials about lessons learned in firefighting and community preparedness. KNAU's Aaron Granillo starts our series with an update on the investigation into the human-caused blaze. Arizona One of the Country's Most At-Risk States Due to Natural Disaster By Ryan Heinsius • Aug 6, 2014 Apache-Sitgreaves National Forests A personal finance website has ranked Arizona as the 10th most at-risk state for natural disaster. As Arizona Public Radio's Ryan Heinsius reports, major wildfires caused by persistent drought contributed to the Grand Canyon State making the list. Post-Wildfire Bacteria Levels in Oak Creek Heightened After Monsoon Flooding By Ryan Heinsius • Jul 17, 2014 Ryan Heinsius Officials in Coconino County are advising the public not to drink from or swim in Oak Creek. As Arizona Public Radio's Ryan Heinsius reports, recent water contamination is yet another consequence of the Slide Fire. Pages1 2 3 4 next › last »

"paradise for fishermen and bird watching" Vransko Jezero by picek
Vransko Jezero Travel Guide: 10 reviews and 13 photos
It makes for an excellent area to explore, just a stone throw away from the Adriatic coast in Northern Dalmatia. Yet Vrana lake waters are brakish and its fish fauna grows to admirable size, most notably - a carp and a pike! And yes, they're so abundant that they are more than enough of them for birds and men to eat. It's easy catch. Even if you lack serious fishing skills and patience, 'šaran' or 'štuka' evetually catch the bait within some time.
But other than that, this place is paradise for birds and only second most important bird location in Croatia, right after Kopački rit by Danube! About 250 different bird species were counted here and between August and September, the ornithologists will put rings on their legs. A visit to their station is a must for those interested in birds. Great people they are to talk with and with stories full of passion for birds and trully devoted to nature protection. On the several locations by the lake, there are birdwatching huts, from there you can catch some good views over the area, but also you let the birds undisturbed. Just be patient.
If you've got a bike, you can do cycling around the lake, choose nice spot and swim where allowed, the shore is diverse from rocky till swampy - here overgrown with thick reeds and plenty of birds nesting, a place where you won't distrub them.
Recently a great scale map was released and it's good to have one - they're distributed for free, so take one before you head to Vrana lake!
Explore this beautiful location, it will take so little to bring a smile on your face, especially when your eyes rest on sight of cloud of birds, or ... like I noticed once, swimming harmless lake snake.
- Pros:birds, fishes, excellent hiking and cycling
- Cons:what to do with carp too big?
- In a nutshell:one of trully magical lakes, yet so off the beaten paths - and despite being only few hundred meters from the sea!

if an airline changes the flight time by a few hours but it's not really convenient, where do you stand?

The sitch: my shoe cleats are worn, can't find exact Marresi replacements, could order some that bolt to the LOOK fittings, but I have these NOS Uniblocs.
These are the ones that screw in with 6 screws and fill the space between the cages and around the pedal body on Campy pedals. No slot for the rear cage. I'd have to take a Dremel to the front part or lose my invito scarpetta (Campy clips).
Do they work? Secure?
Many thanks

text: Can another more experienced Engineer clarify some things for me real quick? The naming of our certification tracks has me rather... turned around. UTILITY SLOT is the slot with our.. ammo box in it by default? Or is that the ABILITY SLOT ? I ask because our certification track has our turret upgrades and ammo box upgrades both listed in ABILITY SLOT, which makes it sound like we can remove the turret and stick the ammo box in that suit slot. (Which I would prefer because I never use the turret as a turret, only a 2nd ammo box. Would love to be able to just put the ammo box in that slot and not have to hit ALT-Fire whenever I want to put out that ammo box. Make sense?) All of our explosives are listed as UTILITY SLOT under certification.. so those .. replace our primary ammo box? Or do they replace the turret?

Microsoft won praise for practical improvements to basic tasks and an early version of the program that surprised reviewers with its stability.
LOS ANGELES — Microsoft's first public demonstration of Windows 7 on Tuesday did not wow audiences with flashy graphics or a wholesale reconstruction of the operating system's core elements.
Instead, the company won praise for practical improvements to basic tasks and an early version of the program that surprised reviewers with its stability.
"They've done a fair bit of work to make the little things you want to do on a day-to-day basis just that much easier," said Kevin Perkins, a principal consultant with Hewlett-Packard in Brisbane, Australia.

"Is it a revolution like Vista was? No. They've obviously polished an awful lot of what Vista had and learned a lot more about how people are going to interact with it."
Windows engineering boss Steven Sinofsky showed off several changes in Windows 7 at the Microsoft Professional Developers Conference here and told software developers how the company is avoiding its Windows Vista missteps.
Some of the features:
• The task bar will allow people to organize applications in any order they choose, something not possible before Windows 7.
It can also give a thumbnail view of open windows before expanding them to the full screen. Once open, windows will be easier to place side by side for copying, say, from one document to another.
• Another common task, creating and managing a home network, will be easier. The software automatically creates a network of PCs, printers, wireless photo frames and other devices. Documents, music, photos and other media stored in "libraries" anywhere on the network can be easily searched and accessed from another Windows 7 PC on the network.
• Windows 7 will support PCs that can be controlled with gestures — for example, allowing people to scroll through a document by flicking a finger across the screen.
Microsoft is also removing significant features from Windows 7.
Built-in e-mail, calendar, photo organization and other lightweight programs will now be distributed as a free, downloadable set called "Windows Live Essentials."
"There was a level of redundancy" between the features in Windows and the Windows Live online services, said Brian Hall, general manager of Windows Live.
The "Essentials" applications will link up with online services, including Web-based e-mail and photo-sharing tools from Microsoft and its competitors, such as Google.
More flexibility
The change gives Microsoft more flexibility in planning its operating system and online-services releases, Hall said.
"Our goal is to have a seamless experience across the PC, Web and phone," Hall said, echoing Microsoft's theme for the day.
Kip Kniskern, who tracks Microsoft's services efforts at LiveSide.net, said removing the features from the operating system itself could also help Microsoft steer clear of antitrust issues.
Microsoft was forced to sell earlier versions of Windows in the European Union with the media player stripped out.
"It certainly doesn't hurt them to pull stuff out and make things more modular," Kniskern said.
Apart from individual features, Sinofsky said Microsoft has elevated its work on what he called the "fundamentals" of Windows, including security, reliability, compatibility and performance.
He said it's too early in the development process to make specific claims about the fundamentals, but early reviewers, such as veteran Windows watcher Ed Bott, have chimed in.
He called the early copy of Windows 7 he reviewed "wicked fast."
"In a very long day's worth of use it has yet to crash or display any of the flaky behavior you might expect from a beta," Bott wrote in his review.
Microsoft aims to limit compatibility issues by making few changes to the kernel — the central component — of the operating system.
In Vista, major changes caused many devices and applications to become incompatible because the "ecosystem" of companies that build products for Windows was not ready in time for its launch.
Compatibility issue
The Vista compatibility problems have since been addressed, with 95 percent of Windows Vista PCs able to get all necessary device drivers, Sinofsky said.
"There are no changes [in Windows 7] that are going to require the reworking of that ecosystem," he said.
"So all of the devices and compatibility work that have gone on in the past two years with Windows Vista will pay off in the work we've done with Windows 7."
The next step for Windows 7 is a more complete beta test version, scheduled for early 2009. The company is sticking to its January 2010 target to release the software.
In the meantime, several Windows 7 mysteries remain, including its cost and minimum hardware requirements.
It appears, however, the hardware bar may be lower than it was for Vista. Sinofsky brandished a low-cost "netbook" with a 1-gigahertz processor and 1 gigabyte of memory running Windows 7.

Marietta police say the man, who is believed to be homeless, was found Tuesday in Rottonwood Creek, under a Delk Road bridge.
Marietta police Officer David Baldwin says authorities received a 911 call around 10:30 a.m. about a body floating in the creek.
Baldwin tells The Marietta Daily Journal that the suspected cause of death is drowning, but the medical examiner will determine the official cause of death and whether foul play was involved.

The jury pool in Potter County is about as shallow as Lake Meredith.
The number of people not showing up to court has increased 20 percent some weeks and judges face the possibility of not being able to hold trials.
Potter County District Clerk Caroline Woodburn said that since August the jury pool has been fairly weak.
Woodburn sends out jury notices every week. The jury summons will fall equally into one of three categories - a response, a temporary exemption or a no response.
But now the temporary exemption has increased to about 40 percent or 50 percent in some cases. While no trials have been impacted, Woodburn said it has come close to that point.
One thing that has been noticed is an increase in post office returns, which are classified under the temporary exemption category.
Woodburn said she has been told by post office staff that a postal machine is misreading the jury summons and returning them to her office.
Lori Phemister, community relations coordinator for the U.S. Postal Service in Amarillo, said the address list used by the district clerk's office could be the culprit for the increase in returned mailings and lack of jurors.
"The address list they are using is probably not the most solid source," Phemister said Wednesday.
The county's list is generated by Judicial Systems Incorporated, a Tyler-based company that handles jury mailing systems for federal, state and municipal courts. A new list of potential jurors was issued in June and the non-deliverable address issue was noticed a month later.
Gary Dower, president of JSI, said the jury list is created through a combination of voter registration records and driver's license information collected from the Secretary of State's Office.
The company than "cleans" the list by dropping out duplicates, checking for name variations and other proprietary methods, Dower said. The list also obtains a special certification, which requires at least 85 percent of the addresses be certified correct, Dower said.
But Phemister says incorrect addresses can happen because of many reasons, including residents who don't update their driver's licenses, change of addresses expire so mail isn't continually forwarded and college students use their parents' addresses instead of their own.
Phemister said the post office actually took samplings of the mail being returned to the district clerk's office and checked them against tax records. She said the 10 summons checked did not match addresses of tax records and were correct in being returned.
"I'm not here to get in a big battle. ... I'm not going to say we never make any error," she said. "Those pieces are being handled correctly."
Phemister said there is customer support available through the post office that will help large mailers, like the county, with making their mailing lists more accurate.

1Get your cat's teeth checked by the vet. Your cat may have teeth that hold the mouth open.
2Brush your cat's teeth frequently to prevent tooth decay, which can be a major cause of drooling.
3Ask your vet about changing your cat's diet to one designed to prevent tartar buildup.
4If no problems with teeth, try to train your cat to keep their mouth closed while doing anything. When they feel comfortable with keeping their mouth closed, they'll remember to try not to drool!

When possible, patients are encouraged to obtain more than one opinion before choosing a hospital for treatment. Larger centers have cancer research programs in clinical, basic science, and prevention (population-based investigations) that are designated as comprehensive cancer centers by the National Cancer Institute. This ensures a strong body of interactive research leading to advances in patient treatments.
Patients have many different reasons for choosing specific transplant centers. The major considerations include:
Cameron, an enthusiastic, caring, and loving child, was diagnosed with leukemia in December 2005. Days that should have been spent playing outside and laughing with other toddlers were spent in the Floating Hospital for Children in Boston, MA. For months, it felt like Cameron and his family were living in a fishbowl. Even though this was the hardest challenge Cameron and his family had to face, their spirit and attitude never changed.
With great sadness, we mourn the passing of the Founding Mother of Gift of Life, Arlene Feinberg. When her son Jay was told he would never find a matching donor, the doctors were unprepared for the passion and tenacity of this most determined mother.

Hello and some questions for those much wiser than I,
After searching the net for several hours last night only go to bed more confused than when I started I figured to see if you guys/gals could help.
Sram came out with a new BB30 compatible crankset in 2010. If there are any Scott Addict owners, mechanics, or interested parties out there do you know if this crankset is compatible with the 2008 R4? I own the frameset w/o the ISP, however, it does appear to have an intergrated BB.
If it's not compatible, what do I need to purchase in addition to a GXP crankset (e.g. BB bearing assembly unit, adapter cups, etc...)?
From what I read it seems the BB30 crankset is intended for integrated bottom brackets, however, it says it only works on threadless BB's. I think my R4 has a threaded BB.
I would like to have the correct parts on-hand before the tear down. Also, I would really love to go with the BB30 unit, although I don't think that will be possible.
Any input would be appreciated. In addition, I emailed Scott's customer service department in hopes of a reply....

Sunday Old School: Angel Witch
Although the most famous city in the United Kingdom, London itself hasn't seemed to have made a large contribution to heavy metal in the grand scheme of things. Of course, there was Iron Maiden, who were hailed as the leaders of the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal movement, but many of these movements bands came from the Midlands and the North of England, rather than the capital itself. That being said, there was another metal band from London during this era that would prove to be hugely inflential on young bands around the globe, from Celtic Frost to Metallica, namely Angel Witch.
The band was formed in 1977 and originally used the moniker Lucifer, but decided to change their name after parting with several members, leaving vocalist/guitarist Kevin Heybourne and guitarist Rob Downing. The two recruited bassist Kevin Riddles and drummer Dave Hogg but before long, Downing also made the decision to quit the band, leaving Angel Witch as a three piece outfit. They recorded a demo and quickly found some success in the metal mainstream, after their song, "Baphomet" was featured on the Metal For Muthas compilation. The attention the band received from the song led them to signing a record deal with major label EMI, though unfortunately the deal was cancelled soon afterwards as a result of manager Ken Heybourne refusing to hand the band over to professional management, along with the bad performance of their single "Sweet Danger," which stayed in the British Singles Chart for only one week.

Pit Stories: Honing Your Skills, Through Sickness
We've been talking to bands and fans everywhere to get their favorite mosh pit stories. This week, Downspirit guitarist Cédric "Cede" Dupont offers up an interesting story about what could have been one of his worst experiences ever:
Right, let me start right away with that one recap of everything: It was HOT as hell, it was sweaty, it was crazy.
Last year, 2009 that was, right when we had the line up together to hit the stages right before we were going to record "Point of Origin," our debut album, we were playing some sort of smaller clubs, just to see if we could get the material to a sound we were looking for.
So, this weekend, I had a terrible fever, and I could hardly get my ass out of bed, but a man's got to do what a man's got to do right?! So, heading to the club, almost fainting already before even having had a single note played on my guitar, I started to feel kinda weird again, and thought I'd get it away by drinking some liquor (it's the best medicine, ya know). It definetely helped…being close to start fainting even more! Haha.
Anyway, we played the show, I kinda almost fell off stage, I almost fell backward right into my rig, and the good thing was, I was so terribly fucked up, I just thought I was about to die on that small freaking stage.
But you wanna hear the best? I was watching a videotape later that week, and who knows why, but I played the best show of my life, musically. It's unbelievable...not a single mistake!
Downspirit's debut album "Point of Origin" just got a North American release earlier this month on Metalville. The band has more tour dates planned in 2010. Check out their MySpace page for the latest tour dates ans some music. Or check out some music on the widget below:

Sunday Old School: Raven
Arguably, without Venom, thrash metal would never have been as fast and ferocious as it was. But many of the genre's best musicians state that Venom wasn't the only band to influence them in such a way, but another band from Newcastle had just as big an impact; a group by the name of Raven. Although Raven was classed as part of the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal, the band's formation predates the movement, as they were founded in 1974 by the Gallagher brothers Mark and John (not Noel and Liam) and guitarist Paul Bowden, before adding drummer Paul Sherrif to their ranks. Even in their early days, the band was known for their energetic live performances and taking musical risks, but it was to be some time before they received a record deal. Eventually, they landed such a contract with local label Neat Records, which is now regarded as one of the most important labels in British heavy metal as a result of them signing so many N.W.O.B.H.M. acts, including Raven's fellow Geordies, Venom.
Under Neat, the group released their first album, "Rock Until You Drop" in 1981, which found critical success straight away and is considered by some to be Raven's best album. Commercial success was also found with the record, as it entered the British albums chart at number sixty three. The album is also remembered for it's fantastic front cover, which shows a trashed stage with the band's members buried beneath the rubble of amps and instruments.The band then wasted no time in recording a follow up, which came in the form of 1982's "Wiped Out." Although it didn't chart in the United Kingdom, it was just as highly regarded by fans and the music press alike and did well enough to attract the attention of record companies in the United States, resulting in Megaforce Records offering them a deal. Their next album, "All For One" was released the following year and, like the two albums before, was cited as another heavy metal masterpiece. The album allowed them to perform in America for the first time, giving support slots to such young American bands as Metallica and Anthrax. More...

Pit Stories: Mosh Pit FAIL In A Snoop Dog Pit
We've been talking to bands and fans everywhere to get their favorite mosh pit stories. This week Brendan K Duff of Pristina shares one from Lollapalooza back in the day:
Over the years, I've quite literally seen it all, or pretty damn close. From simple fistfights to full blown riots. Brass knuckles, bricks, chains, padlocks, tasers, bats, beer bottles, chairs, knives and guns. Fucked up bouncers, Police brutality, Fucked up violence of all kinds, it goes on and on. I could write a book on the unbelievable shit I've seen and done. All of this pales in comparison to the DUMBEST thing I've ever experienced... and sadly, I deserved it. I wish I could say that the story takes place at some fucked up hardcore show, or at least a SLAYER gig or something... Nope, Snoop Doggy Dogg.
In 1997 I was 16 years old. That summer I was invited to go see the Lollapalooza Fest. Looking back, I have no idea why I went, because the only band I gave a shit about that played was TOOL. But alas, I went, and what happened turned out to be the dumbest thing that ever happened to me. I remember spending the afternoon scamming beer and being an idiot. The crowd was your typical "douche bag" festival audience. (You know? 10,000 white boys with tribal tattoo's who "rock out" to bands like Disturbed and Godsmack. Alright, so now that we're on the same page, we can continue.)
I was drunk, watching the mutants, when Snoop hits the stage. All of a sudden, a giant douche bag mosh pit erupts... That's right, white people moshing to Snoop Dogg. I decided it would be hilarious to enter said mosh pit and show these assholes how it's done! I took about three steps into "the pit"... and blackout. Sadly, I was not only knocked unconscious immediately, but my nose was broken and a tooth was knocked out. Even worse, the tooth was attached to a retainer that was glued to the bottom row of my teeth. So I come to, confused, bleeding out the nose with a piece of wire hanging out of my mouth with a tooth on the end. As I limped away, I had to rip the retainer out, which broke another tooth it was glued to.
To try and save face, I toughed out the rest of the show, but the night ended with me in the ER, trying to explain the story without looking like a total moron (didn't work). And that, boys and girls, is the dumbest mosh pit experience to ever happen to me.
Pristina's new album, "The Drought (ov Salt and Sorrow)" is due out September 28th on Trendkill Recordings. The albums is produced by Steve Austin of Today Is The Day, and featuring guest appearances by Steve Austin, Rennie Resmini (Starkweather), and Scott Angelacos (Bloodlet). Check out some of their music on the band's MySpace page.

Unearthing The Metal Underground In Vancouver
Each week in "Unearthing the Metal Underground," we'll be putting a few quality underground bands in the spotlight in an attempt to get the word out about them. This week I am showcasing Vancouver, Canada's stellar underground death metal scene, the same city that gave birth to internationally recognized acts such as 3 Inches of Blood, Strapping Young Lad and Bison B.C to name a few. Vancouver though is one city that always has a long list of talented young bands that can easily become metal's next big discovery.
Death metal and its variances have always been the most dominating metal genre in Vancouver. With quite a few venues catering specifically to the underground metal niche its easy for young bands to flourish. Even with the closure/re-modelling of some of Vancouver's most iconic metal venues (The Cobalt R.I.P, Pub 340) the underground metal scene refuses to die and becomes bigger each and every year.
Malice Plagued
First up is Malice Plagued. Quite possibly the most under-rated metal band going in Vancouver today, Malice Plagued is known for their unrelenting dedication to their music and their live performances. With a wide range of influences coming from acts like Rush, Black Sabbath, Testament, Megadeth, Iron Maiden and Death, Malice Plagued has crafted a death-thrash hybrid sound unique to themselves, which is what keeps Vancouver crowds coming back for more after every show. Vocalist/guitarist Kyle Pepin knows what it means to be a proper front-man and can command audiences, shred and perform his distinct vocal style with effortless precision. The band is rounded out by drummer Lance Powell and bassist Kyle Smedley. This three piece death-thrash unit is one to keep an eye on and will surely be turning heads in the metal scene for years to come and should be the next Vancouver metal act to be breaking out to an international audience.
Sunday Old School: Witchfinder General
Sometimes in the world of heavy metal and hard rock music, one band can prove to be a major influence on hundreds, if not thousands of future fans of the genre. We have already seen how this is true when we looked at Geordie noise merchants Venom and the influence they had on black metal, so now shall we see how another band from the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal movement would make their mark, this time on the doom metal genre. The band in question is Witchfinder General, who, like many other heavy British bands before them, including Black Sabbath and Judas Priest, came from the Midlands area of England. The group was founded in 1979 by the duo of Zeeb Parkes (vocals) and guitarist Phil Cope and settled on the name Witchfinder General, which they got from the classic Vincent Price movie. Before long the lineup was completed when the pair recruited Cope's cousin Steve Kinsell on drums and bass player Toss McCready. After writing material, the band released their first single in 1981 entitled, "Burning A Sinner" (sometimes jokingly reffered to as "Burning A Singer") through Heavy Metal Records. The next year, the group released an EP entitled, "Soviet Invasion," which while only featuring three songs (one of which was a live track,) clocked in at thirty minutes long.
The next step for the band was to release a full length album, which was finally unleashed in 1982. The album was entitled, "Death Penalty" and immediately became notorious as a result of it's album cover, which featured topless model Joanne Latham with hooded figures in the yard of a church in Enville, Staffordshire and had not been approved, nor even granted permission to be taken, by the church's reverend. Despite the controversy however, the album received positive reviews and has since gone on to be recognised as a true classic in the doom metal genre. A second album would follow the next year, in the form of "Friends Of Hell." Once again, the album contained a controversial front cover, with the band posing with semi-naked models in front of a church. However, the controversy had proved less beneficial than "Death Penalty," with some seeing it as almost a parody of themselves. The album itself received some backlash from fans for attempting to expand the group's fanbase to a more mainstream audience with the single, "Music," which ultimately failed to achieve it's primary goal. After being unable to grow the way they had wanted to and the band called it a day in 1984.
Like many New Wave Of British Heavy Metal bands however, they eventually returned to the music scene, although this time without vocalist Zeeb Parkes. They announced teir reformation in Novemeber 2006, with Cope bringing back bass player Rod Hawkes, who had played on the "Friends Of Hell"record and drummer Dermot Redmond, who had joined the band after the second album's release, along with new member in the form vocalist Gary Martin. The band's first move as a regrouped unit came the next year when they released a compilation entitled, "Buried Amongst The Ruins," which featured both the A and B-Side to the "Burning A Sinner" single, the "Soviet Invasion" EP and four live tracks, among which was a live version of a previously unreleased song entitled, "Phantasmagorical." In 2008, the band released their first album of all new material in twenty five years entitled, "Resurrected." Though the band has repeatedly stated they will not perform live again, the possibility of another album could well come true and their influence and mark on the doom metal genre cannot, and nor should it be, ignored or overlooked.

Pit Stories: The Night The Stage Wanted To Eat Us
We've been talking to bands and fans everywhere to get their favorite mosh pit stories. This week Special Ops drummer Clarence shares a story of show in an airplane hangar on a sketchy stage:
It happened in Beloeil in the spring time of 2009. We played at a party for a friend of a friend of a friend. The show was held in a huge hanger used for storing air planes. When we arrived, we realized that the stage was home made and poorly setup. We looked at each other and laughed without saying a word. It was bad. It was wobbling like crazy, the floor boards were made of different thicknesses and types of wood that had been sitting outside all winter. The stage was barely big enough to fit the four of us along with all the gear. Nails and screws were sticking out from everywhere.
When the time came for us to play, Clarence, in his normal excitement, ran up to the stage and jumped on. His foot went right through the floor board. Thankfully, he didn't hurt himself too badly. Just a minor scrape. Abe helped him back up and and the show began.
Knowing that the stage wasn't very solid, the Ops crew tried not to move around too much but the stage was doomed from the start. By the end of the set, the stage looked like a mine field. There were holes everywhere. So bad that someone had to patch some of the holes with smaller pieces of wood between some of the songs. It was a night they would all remember as "The night the stage wanted to eat us" Fun times were had by all that night. Clarence didn't sue because he was too wasted and didn't realize he had been injured until the following day.
Special Ops has a few local shows planned while bassist Waldo Thornhill is in rehabilitation from surgery from his second bout with cancer. Visit the band's MySpace page for more details.

Unearthing The Metal Underground in Red Deer
Each week in "Unearthing the Metal Underground," we'll be putting a few quality underground bands in the spotlight in an attempt to get the word out about them. This week, I am exploring the metal scene in Red Deer, Canada, situated about halfway between Alberta's provincial capital to the north, Edmonton, and the city of Calgary to the south. Surrounded by farming communities and cattle ranches, a small but tight-knit collection of metal bands have been heavying things up in the prairie city of 90,000, setting the stage for Red Deer to finally find it's way onto the metal map.

Sunday Old School: Agnostic Front
For many people, when they think of hardcore, the first place they think of is New York. And with good reason too, the N.Y.H.C. scene is perhaps one of the most well known in the world of heavy music, right up there with the Bay Area thrash scene. New York has produced dozens of hardcore bands that have gone on to become legends in the field and the now sadly defunct CBGBs club hosted more hardcore shows than a Red Light district in Amsterdam. One of the absolute top dogs from the New York scene, is a band that has been around longer than most and arguably played CBGBs more than anyone, Agnostic Front.
Agnostic Front was formed by guitarist Vinnie Stigma, formerly of The Eliminators in 1980 and went through a few singers before settling on Roger Miret, himself the former bassist of The Psychos. Before long, the band recruited bass player Adam Moochie and drummer Ray Barbieri (aka Raybeez) on drums and released their debut EP, "United Blood" in 1983. The EP was well received by fans and the group recorded their first full length, "Victim In Pain" soon after, releasing it in 1984. The album pushed them to the top of the New York hardcore scene and earned them a tour with Scotish hardcore act, The Exploited. More...
The Rockstar Ramblings: The Judges
Steven Tyler (Aerosmith) announced this week that if a judge on American Idol he would be honest. Speaking of honesty, Joe Perry spoke this week about the secret of Tyler becoming a judge, saying he was not happy with the situation and hurt Steven didn't let the band know. So, if I understand correctly, it is okay to lie to your band mates regarding drug use, just not over reality television? Actually, I'm not even sure what side I'm on anymore, nor does it matter because we all know the true losers in this scenario are: Bret Michaels and Gene Simmons (he had to try and get this, right?) for losing out to Steven Tyler… More...
Growing Up Twisted: Rock and Roll Ain't Dead
This week's Growing Up Twisted begins with Cody telling a story of a chef that puts an eel up his drunk friends ass. At this point there really needs to be one show dedicated to Cody's sexuality. Actually, one episode may not be enough, we are talking miniseries.
Dee receives an offer to do a show in Atlantic City so he uses this opportunity to take the family on a road trip to A.C. After a stop at the recording studio where Jesse is playing his new song, "Rock and Roll Aint Dead", Dee decides he wants to sing the song with his son at his upcoming show. Meanwhile, back at the house Lita Ford (who is apparently opening for Dee) is calling to invite Cheyenne to sing her song "Cherry Bomb" live at the show. Of course Cheyenne, Dee's little drama queen, has a sore throat and is unsure she will be able to perform the song. More...
Pit Stories: Skinhead Facial Surgery
We've been talking to bands and fans everywhere to get their favorite mosh pit stories. This week vocalist Brett Hoffman and guitarist Phil Fasciana of the legendary death metal band Malevolent Creation talk about an incident at one of their first shows involving an unbelievable oral amputation.
Pit Stories: Malevolent Creation from Emily Hingle on Vimeo.
This footage is taken from their upcoming interview. Malevolent Creation's latest album, "Invidious Dominion," will be out August 24th. They're currently on a headlining tour before meeting up with Exodus for the March of Brutality Tour. For more Malevolent Creation, check out their MySpace page.
Sunday Old School: Armored Saint
Often in the Sunday Old School articles, we tend to focus on the sub-genres of heavy metal such as thrash, death and black metal, amongst others. This week we take a look at a great example of traditional heavy metal in the form of California's Armored Saint. Armored Saint was formed in 1982 by brothers Phil and Gonzo Sandoval, who played guitar and drums respectively,along with friend Dave Prichard who also played guitar, whilst students at South Pasadena High School. Soon after their formation the band recruited bass player Joey Vera and lead singer John Bush. The name of the band was suggested by Gonzo while the band were watching the movie Excalibur and a five song demo was recorded not long afterwards, that included the song, "Lesson Well Learned," which was featured on the Metal Massacre II compilation. After releasing a self-titled EP through Metal Blade Records in 1983, the band signed to Chrysalis Records the next year. Their debut album, "March Of The Saint" was released that year and earned the band a minor hit with the song, "Can U Deliver?," as well as critical praise. A second album entitled, "Delirious Nomad" was released in 1985 and, like the first album, earned the band critical acclaim.
Soon after the release of "Delirious Nomad," Phil Sandoval decided to quit the band, leaving Armored Saint has a four-piece. The quartet began work on their next studio album, which resulted in 1987's "Raising Fear." The album did not sit as well with critics as the past two albums had and many believed that Phil Sandoval's exit had shaken the band's confidence. The album did however garner the band another minor hit with the song, "Isolation." After "Raising Fear" was released, a live album named, "Saints Will Conquer" hit the shelves the next year but sadly these would be the final albums to feature guitarist Dave Prichard. Although Prichard participated in the writing and demoing of their next album, he unfortunately passed away from leukemia during the sessions. The resulting album, "Symbol Of Salvation" was released in 1991 and used the guitar solo Prichard recorded for the song, "Tainted Past." The album also featured the return of Phil Sandoval, as well as new guitarist Jeff Duncan. The record was seen as a return to form and perhaps their best yet by critics and fans alike but ultimately the band were unsure of a future without Prichard. During this period of uncertainty, John Bush was asked by Anthrax if he would be interested in becoming their new vocalist, replacing the recently departed Joey Belladonna. Bush's decision to accept the job proved to be the final straw for Armored Saint and they decided to call it a day. During the band's inactivity, other members kept themselves busy with various musical proects. Bassist Joey Vera found success as a producer, whilst also performing in bands such as Fates Warning and Lizzy Borden and the Sandoval brothers formed a new band together entitled Life After Death, which was more inspired by the likes of Thin Lizzy than the heavy metal influences of Armored Saint.

The Rockstar Ramblings: More Reality TV
Rockers from the eighties continue to bring in the viewers for reality TV. With Dee Snider, Gene Simmons, and Bret Michaels regulars on the TV circuit it doesn't appear this trend will be disappearing anytime soon. Here is a look at some of the other reality shows currently being considered by the networks. More...
Growing Up Twisted: Are They Real?
The third episode begins with Cheyenne looking or hiding socks and not wanting to participate in her older brother Shane's sketch comedy act. Apparently Shane needs the whole family involved or else it just won't be funny. It is unclear whether the socks are going to be part of the act. Cheyenne takes a nap and wakes up in tears, eventually she goes with her Mom (Suzette) to a magic shop because they need to buy a beard. When she inquires about a beard that hobby magician confirms that they have a wizard beard and that it looks real. Duh, don't all wizard beards look real? Where it gets interesting is when the hobby guy magician asks Suzette if her breasts are real. This immediately angers her so she calls Dee and the boys to let them know that someone else is talking about her breasts. Being the twisted family they are it's actually the boys that are more offended. Within minutes Dee and the boys are in the hobby shop threatening this teenage magician who is holding back his laughter. More...
Sunday Old School: Sacred Reich
The thrash metal movement in the eighties saw bands all over the world adopt the new approach to heavy metal, and the United States were arguably the champions of the genre. Although it was California and New York that were credited with some of the biggest and best names in thrash, other states produced some of the heaviest hitters of the bunch. A great example of this, would be the state of Arizona, which produced the politically minded Sacred Reich. The band formed in 1985 by vocalist and bass player Phil Rind and signed to Metal Blade Records, one of the biggest labels for thrash metal at the time, soon after. They released their first album, "Ignorance" in 1987 and was extremely well received by thrash fans all across the globe. An EP entitled, "Surf Nicaragua" followed the next year and featured a cover of the Black Sabbath classic, "War Pigs," as well as a passage from the song "Wipe Out" in the EP's title track.
After another EP, this one recorded live at the Dynamo festival in the Netherlands, Sacred Reich released a second album named, "The American Way" in 1990. The album saw a departure somewhat from their thrash metal sound, without discarding it completely and once again, was loved by fans and critics alike. Their next album, "Independent" did not find as much favour as their first two releases, but contained some stellar material, such as the title track. This album would also introduce drummer Dave McClain, who later went on to join Machine Head. Three years later, Sacred Reich released their fourth, and to date final studio album, "Heal," which regained the critical praise that "Independent" did not receive. After an absence of six years, the band's original drummer Greg Hall rejoined the group and they subsequently released a live record entitled, "Still Ignorant" in 1997. Sadly, this would prove to be the final release from Sacred Reich, as they decided to call it a day in 2000.
In 2007, the band decided to reform with the lineup of Phil Rind, Greg Hall and guitarists Wiley Arnett and Jason Rainey, peforming live around the world, most noticably at European festivals such as Wacken Open Air and Graspop Metal Meeting. Although the band has showed no sign in ending these performances any time soon, Rind has repeatedly stated that the band will not record another studio album. More...

Ragnarok by NicholasKayWatch
Here's my new piece, Ragnarok!
This painting features the final battle of the Norse gods against the fire giants of Muspelheim, the Midgard serpent (Jormungandr), and their other foes.
Daily DeviationGiven 2015-04-25
An amazing combination of the stylized and dynamic, capturing the myth in fine detail and creativity. ( Suggested by lovelessdevotions and Featured by MidnightExigent )
Congrats on the Daily Deviation!
That is great.
Beautiful piece! Wow!
I just love it!
Also, is that a reference to Tyr's right hand being lost? It's probably not.
Hi. You're amazing! If you could take a quick second to answer this, you would honestly change my life: What do I physically need to do during practice, each day, to eventually be able to create art like you? How did you learn and become so amazing?!!
Can you please break down exactly what one extremely motivated beginner student would need to do, each & every day when he or she sits down to practice, in order to create these incredible photorealistic 2d digital drawing/paintings?
People just say 'Practice.' But I do not know 'exactly' what this entails.
Can you maybe make me, like, a list or something?!! So I can then go out and explore those topics? Or at least tell me what I need to physically be doing with my practice time so I can get as good as you?
If there's any books/DVDs/tutorials you can recommend that totally helped you get better, that would be so freakin' incredible!!!
Thanks for the help!

Embarkation in Reykjavik (Iceland) in the evening. Overnight in port.
This cruise takes you to the very heart of Greenland in the footsteps of great explorers like Paul Emile Victor who left France to study this land in the fifties. Discover an extreme land which is home to eight species of whales, two million seals, walruses, reindeer and an amazing variety of seabirds.
At Sea.
Port details pending.
Set sail for Ammassalik and cruise in the wake of Captain Jean- Baptiste CHARCOT's famous ship, the Pourquoi Pas, which cast off from this island on 11 July 1934 with four renowned scientists on board, including Paul Emile VICTOR, ethnologist and mission leader. This island with its wild and unpredictable coastline captivated the explorers and, after their initial experience, they decided to extend their journey to the heart of the Inuit communities.
Practically unknown until 100 years ago, the East coast of Greenland remains the most authentic and majestic part of the Island. These days, this little-known location is the largest National Park in the world. The route taken by LE BORÉAL will allow you to discover the Sermilik Fjord or "Iceberg Trail", with vast expanses of ice as a backdrop. Some Summers, the majestic humpback whales take up residence in this fjord. At this time, the ice recedes from the ship's bow and the colours are spectacular, lighting up the sky in pink, mauve and white.
Spend these days navigating along the east coast of Greenland, exploring the fjords and glaciers. The exact itinerary is in the capable hands of your expert Captain and crew, who will dictate the best landings based off of the day's weather and wildlife spottings.
Port details pending.
Similar to previous days on the eastern seaboard of Greenland, spend the day navigating the stunning west coast of Greenlands rugged shores.
When Erik the Red, the exiled Norse chief, landed on the coast of Nuuk at the tail end of the 10th century, he found a fertile and welcoming land dotted with fjords. He settled there with a group of his former countrymen, and the Norse remained the principal inhabitants until, over a period of 500 years, their population declined and gave way to the Inuit. Nuuk is situated at the mouth of one of the largest fjords in the world, where the waters never freeze. The town spreads gently out towards the Davis Strait and enjoys an historic centre that is particularly rich in national heritage. The National Museum is home to fabulous collections of items depicting Inuit hunter and fishermen's lives. Despite being Greenland's capital city and its largest, Nuuk benefits from the rarefied atmosphere of inaccessibility; it can only be reached by air or sea, as there are no roads on Greenland. The vivid reds, blues, greens and yellows of the houses are a lively contrast to the sombre waters of Greenland and serve to lift the spirits of the locals during the winter months. Nuuk is visually emotive and imbued with the expressions of the tundra, the sea and the sky.
At the heart of Disko Bay - a UNESCO World Heritage Site - the Ilulissat Icefjord provides an extraordinary spectacle of almost surreal beauty. The sculptural icebergs continue their on timeless journey, shimmering with their eternal light. Vast pieces of ice break off from the bergs and rejoin the inexorable movement of the sea. Close by lies the town of Ilulissat, the region's principal destination. Encircled by icebergs, it has retained a unique mix of traditional Arctic life, with multicoloured wooden houses, huskies and the leather tanners who still work today using the ancient methods of their ancestors.
Spend the day navigating the numerous fjords of Greenland.
Disembark this morning for your continued journey home.

I am the happy owner of a new Skinny Benny for around-town utility riding.
In going over the bike last night I noticed that there are no dust covers over the bottom bracket. The crank bearings are fully visible on both sides.
Is this a common setup? Is there a way to add dust covers? Was this a serious faux pas at the LBS?

LOS ANGELES — The oldest fossils of a previously unknown ancient leopard species are shaking the pantherine evolutionary tree, suggesting that big cats arose in Asia, not Africa, according to a new study.
Paleontologists led by the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles and the University of Southern California discovered the previously undescribed sister species to the modern snow leopard while on a 2010 expedition to Tibet. Seven specimens from three individuals range in age from 4.1 million to 5.9 million years old — dialing back the clock on big cat evolution by as much as 2 million years, according to the paper, published online Tuesday in Proceedings of the Royal Society B.
Panthera blytheae, named for the daughter of longtime museum benefactors Paul and Heather Haaga of La Canada Flintridge, was slightly smaller than the snow leopard and probably roamed the Tibetan plateau for several million years, dining on an ample supply of antelope, pika and blue sheep, said to paleontologist Zhijie Jack Tseng, lead author of the paper.
"We think that the snow leopard and this new cat probably represent a new lineage that was adapted to the high elevation environment of the Tibetan plateau," said Tseng, a postdoctoral fellow at New York's American Museum of Natural History who conducted the work while a doctoral student at USC.
Big cats have presented serious problems for paleontologists. The ancient ambush hunters' preferred habitat proved unproductive for fossilization, leaving a poor record of a sojourn on Earth that exceeded that of modern man by millions of years.
