It's been almost six months since the Ogeechee River was ruined for the summer of 2011 with the seemingly mysterious death of nearly 40,000 fish in a 70-mile stretch of the river. But it was only about a month ago that the state Environmental Protection Division, which monitors the state's waterways, determined what many Ogeechee residents and the Ogeechee Riverkeeper group had been saying practically since the fish kill first happened - that discharge from King America Finishing in Screven County was to blame.

There are few times in people's lives when they think to themselves, "I'd rather be in the hospital."
Are unions obsolete? When the unions first organized in the 1880s, working conditions were not much better than slavery, with low wages, unsafe workplaces and unhealthy circumstances.

Georgia's prison population has grown 35 percent during the past decade and is projected to continue growing during the next five years.

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. For too many families, awareness of behind-closed-doors abuse is not an issue; they are all too intimately aware of violence at the hands of family members, spouses or intimate partners. They know its pain, its fear, its humiliation and the irrational shame victims often feel. For too many others, it's somebody else's business and somebody else's problem. …

Editor, I worked hard and saved all that I could during my working years. If something needed done and I could do, it I did - from reroofing the house to replacing the brakes on my vehicles. I already have paid income taxes on the money that I've saved, but the fair tax people would have me pay "income" tax on it again if I buy a new set of golf clubs or a boat or anything else. There is nothing fair about that.
Editor, I want to offer a clarification to a statement made by Len Calderone in his column in Wednesday's Coastal Courier on changing the tax code. He favors wiping out the entire income tax code and replacing it with a "consumption tax" or sales tax. He mistakenly states halfway through his commentary that, "Others believe that business owners could make personal purchases and avoid the tax because businesses would be exempt. Businesses are exempt from state sales taxes even now, but they have to prove that what is purchased is for company-only use."
With the holidays fast approaching, many community members are focusing on hosting and attending parties, buying presents and looking forward to family get-togethers.

That's where our local United Way comes in.

I am a fan of Broadway musicals. Hedwig is by far the most original and imaginative shows I've seen. The story is wonderfully yet oddly interesting. The performance was top-notch and believable. Brava!

That's their projected 40 time for him, a number that has in no way been validated and has been around long before the Combine. He did not participate in any drills outside of the bench.

Posted on 11/22/2011 12:51:59 PM PST by KaslinEdited on 11/22/2011 1:18:14 PM PST by Admin Moderator. [history]
RUSH: From the Los Angeles Times: "A teenager who fatally shot a gay classmate in the back of the head during an Oxnard middle school computer lab will spend 21 years in prison under a plea deal reached Monday, closing the books on a case that drew international headlines and ignited debate on how schools should handle sexual identity issues.
(Excerpt) Read more at rushlimbaugh.com ...
Straight boys and men hate and despise having passes made to them by men. Every man I've ever known has told me a terrible story like this (sans dress and makeup). Can't wait to see how it works out in the military.
I once knew a gay man who obviously lead a double life. He was a nice, intelligent man - a lawyer - but occasionally he would turn up at the office, obviously beaten to a pulp. We all know what happened...
No, not THAT Larry King.
"Brandon McInerney, who was 14 when he pulled a gun out of his backpack and shot Larry King two times at point-blank range, will be kept behind bars until he is 38 under the terms of the deal..."
How long will Larry be dead? This guy is going to still be a young man when he is free as a bird after killing a 14 year old boy. And will probably really never see 12-14 of those years in prison.
I thought it was this Larry King.
When I lived in Hollywood, I had a number of guys make passes ate me.
I'd just tell 'em I'm straight.
It doesn't need to be a big deal.
THAT Larry King has long been dead . .
. . brain dead at least.
I had a number of guys make passes ate me.
That should be:
I had a number of guys make passes AT me.
Darned spell cheque...

This won't change anything because the liberals involved will just blame it all on the gun as usual. The mothers complaints will be brushed aside and the 2nd Amendment will be attacked again.
She wanted her own private Matthew Shephard to demonstrate how evil straight-people are.
Thankfully Rush is addressing this.
If this kid (Larry King) had been a normosexual boy making similar advances on girls, THAT would've been stopped pronto, and he'd have been sent to sexual harrassment sensitivity re-education classes.
But instead he was a young pervert, so he got not only a pass but encouragement.
Young Brandon McInerney should've never been backed into that corner. It's no surprise to me that he finally lashed out in self-defense. There's no big puzzle here.
The principal or assisant principal (I think principal) is a homosexual.
I thought Larry King died years ago, and they finally pulled the plug on the show this year.
A lot of gays are grabby and a lot of men's first interaction with gays is when they are young boys, so naturally straight men despise them.
yeah, he's been dead for years (appearance-wise)
THAT Larry King does a great impression of a dead man.
I worked with a guy like that. Or they get locked in a closet for a day or two.
Also, went to an open house at a house for sale that had locks both inside and outside all of the closets and cupboards.
That's the first thing I thought when I heard him earlier. "Larry King is dead? What, did he try to take his show back from Piers Morgan?"
If the the kid, Larry King, supposedly had a civil right to act out in a homosexual manner by dressing like a girl and sexually harassing other boys what happen to the civil right of boys not wanting to be sexually harassed?
We are living in abnormal times. I have long said that were it not for Modern Medicine and Modern communications, Homosexuals would have experienced a massive "die-off" and nobody would have known why. All that would have been remembered was that they were homosexual and that they died of a mysterious diseases.
As it should happen, Medicine discovered the cause, and Media informed enough of them to slow down what would have been the usual effect of the disease. (an epidemic hitting this specific group.)
I suspect events like these have struck the homosexual portion of the population many times in the past. The "Georgian Era" of England was punctuated by mass die-offs of sexually irresponsible people, and as a result it ushered in the subsequent Prudish "Victorian Era."
Anyway, what I am getting at, is that there are a lot more of them around than there ever have been before because many which would have ordinarily died in the past of some horrible disease are still alive and working to spread their meme.
I suspect God or Nature is going to re-balance the scales someday and it's not going to be pretty.
A lot of hetero men are grabby, too. Think of Julian Edelman.
Having passes made at you is one thing. But, when I was 17 I was accosted in a grocery store in Northern Virginia. A guy came up to me and put hands on me and made some very disgusting suggestions.
He then shoved me against the freezer doors and tried to basically molest me. At this point, I had been resisting but then I just said to hell with it and the fight was on. I kicked him into the open cold shelving section and went to the managers desk and asked that they call the police.
Long story short, I was blamed, the gay guy said I started it, I was barred from the store and threatened with prosecution. All because the manager of the store didn't want to seem prejudice against gays. Never mind that there were witnesses and the store security video...
If someone wants to be gay, that's their business. I don't appreciate it being forced on me and I don't appreciate how they are being treated as a special class of citizen. I'm heterosexual. I like women... a lot actually. I'm not gay or act gay. Yet, the audacity of the person that accosted me still offends me.
I guess my point is this. A gay guy can say, "hey, I find you attractive, wanna go out?" or a gay guy can violate your personal space and accost you. Either way, it can be called making a pass. The former doesn't bother me, the latter will get someone's @ss kicked.
No kidding. You turn down gay guys the same way straight people turn each other down. "No thanks" "Not interested" etc. In a school setting you go to the staff if another student continues to harasses you.
You do not shoot him in the head.
For what it's worth, there is this bit of news.
I'm truly sympathetic to your experience. Times have changed since I was fairly young - the '80s - and gay guys still got beat up and fired for coming on to young people.
Sadly, it's this kind of horrible experience that turns most of us off to gays - particularly men.
Thwarting Mother Nature always backfires. It's not just AIDS or other "modern" diseases, the list of diseases and conditions rampant among homosexuals is long and gruesome.
Women homosexuals are running normal women out of the military. It's very bad.
I'm surprised nobody's posted a photo from last week's Craig Ferguson show of the robot skeleton wearing Larry King's suspenders, shirt and glasses.
I find it kind of ironic that a gay individual with the same name as a pedifile, THE famous Larry King, is murdered for being something that was probably beyond his control as a human. (Larry King NAMBLA re: "Murder In Nebraska")
I understand what you are saying. Hard though it is for most Freepers to understand, there are mature gays who will back off.
But, of course, this story involves a pathetically-confused young, immature boy who came on to confused young straight males. No school should allow this kind of intimidation of young people. Horribly, it lead to death. What a waste.
How many eggs to we have to break to get a rotten, sulphurous omelet?
"How long will Larry be dead? This guy is going to still be a young man when he is free as a bird after killing a 14 year old boy. And will probably really never see 12-14 of those years in prison."
You realize he's gotten a longer sentence than most murderers? Also, that he was a minor?
"You realize hes gotten a longer sentence than most murderers? Also, that he was a minor?"
Does that make Larry less dead?
I never said that heterosexual men don't have impulse issues. However, most MATURE heterosexual men don't live their entire life thinking of their next score and how to satisfy that ONE urge!
No, but this perp was singled out because of the victim's "status"; be even-handed about it. A crackhead killing you for $.35 would get 10 years at most.
"No, but this perp was singled out because of the victims status
I don't care. There should be a death penalty for killing someone. Period.
We agree. Crude heteros are no better than crude homos.
Sorry...should have said murdering someone...
The Psychiatrist asks the mental patient. "Why do you think you are Napoleon Bonaparte?"
He answers "Because God told me."
Just then a voice from the other room shouts out "No I did NOT!".
"There should be a death penalty for killing someone."
Sure; be even-handed about it.
Apparently this behavior has been a characteristic of the type for a long time.
20 And the old man said, Peace be with thee; howsoever let all thy wants lie upon me; only lodge not in the street.
21 So he brought him into his house, and gave provender unto the asses: and they washed their feet, and did eat and drink.
22 Now as they were making their hearts merry, behold, the men of the city, certain sons of Belial, beset the house round about, and beat at the door, and spake to the master of the house, the old man, saying, Bring forth the man that came into thine house, that we may know him.
23 And the man, the master of the house, went out unto them, and said unto them, Nay, my brethren, nay, I pray you, do not so wickedly; seeing that this man is come into mine house, do not this folly.
24 Behold, here is my daughter a maiden, and his concubine; them I will bring out now, and humble ye them, and do with them what seemeth good unto you: but unto this man do not so vile a thing.
44 And there fell of Benjamin eighteen thousand men; all these were men of valour.
45 And they turned and fled toward the wilderness unto the rock of Rimmon: and they gleaned of them in the highways five thousand men; and pursued hard after them unto Gidom, and slew two thousand men of them.
46 So that all which fell that day of Benjamin were twenty and five thousand men that drew the sword; all these were men of valour.
47 But six hundred men turned and fled to the wilderness unto the rock Rimmon, and abode in the rock Rimmon four months.
48 And the men of Israel turned again upon the children of Benjamin, and smote them with the edge of the sword, as well the men of every city, as the beast, and all that came to hand: also they set on fire all the cities that they came to.
And yet you cannot get the Libertarians (or the ignorant populace) to take notice or comprehend.
I can relate to that...
I did a google search on the gym I belong to and discovered a chat board talking about the club. Evidently back then (it was a few years old) it was discussed as a potential "hit spot" for homos looking for companions.
The one thing they discussed, which I am totally familiar with, was the necessity for eye contact. Homosexuals will always attempt to make eye contact with you wherever you are and if you are a homo, you will make that instantaneous connection...........
Yeah I know

"You can't steal an election one person at a time."
The possibility of voter fraud in the US has spawned a number of state laws requiring particular kinds of identification at the polls, as well as grassroots organizations that search public records to challenge certain voters' registrations . Much of the modern debate about potential voter fraud has been driven by Hans von Spakovsky, a Heritage Foundation senior legal fellow, former member of the Federal Elections Commission, and former counsel to the assistant attorney general for civil rights, where he worked on voting issues. Writing for the New Yorker, Jane Mayer describes von Spakovsky's influence on conservative groups like True the Vote, various state attempts to disqualify registered voters, and the lack of evidence for many claims made in support of voter ID laws.

"Pacific Rim" may be just another mayhem film, but at least it has likeable characters and approaches the concept of one sacrificing for all, say Christian reviewers of Guillermo Del Toro's Sci-Fi action flick, which opened last Friday.
The movie's hero, Raleigh Becket, has an admirable, but challenged, back story and then risks all for the future of mankind, which at least gets him to first base, according to one Christian reviewer.
A film "has to have redemptive, sacrificial, Christological elements in it," said Dr. Ted Baehr, chairman of the Christian Film and Television Coalition and Editor-in-Chief of Movieguide, in an interview with The Christian Post. "Pacific Rim" achieves this in a very overt fashion, he explained. more >>
The recently released movie "This is the End," which has received some criticism from Christians for inaccurately portraying the apocalypse by biblical standards, reportedly had to be partially re-done to include a scene showing heaven due to popular demand by a test audience.
Seth Rogen, who co-wrote and directed the film with Evan Goldberg, said in a recent interview that an audience test-screening the apocalyptic comedy was disappointed the film didn't include an ending which showed all the characters in heaven following the Rapture.
Rogen and Goldberg were surprised to find their test audience wanted to see an ending involving heaven. more >>
The release this week of the movie "This Is the End" coupled with Hollywood's intensifying love affair with apocalyptic-type films gave some pastors in the Staten Island, N.Y.-area a chance to answer a local reporter's question, "Why the fascination?"
"The multiplication of apocalyptic movies is a very interesting phenomenon," said Pastor Dave Watson at Calvary Chapel in Mariners Harbor, as reported in a Staten Island Advance article written by Maura Grunlund. In addition to "This Is the End," the pastor noted that the comedy "Rapture-Palooza" was also released this month.
"As we look at the social, economic, ecological, political and moral problems that the human race faces, it is quite predictable that there would be a market for speculation with how it all ends or resets itself," Watson said. "This speaks, I believe, to a spiritual hunger, a desire by humankind to know, and, if possible, control his or her destiny." more >>
Is Robert Downey Jr.'s mention of Bible prophecy teacher Chuck Missler during an appearance on Jon Stewart's Daily Show a sign that the "Iron Man" actor is tracking with the latest End Times conversation? Prophecy News Watch took the opportunity to post a short video clip of Downey's Missler reference on the show and write about current events in the Middle East.
Downey's own faith or religious beliefs are not highly publicized, but his mention of Missler, which included him saying "love Chuck Missler," has come at a critical time when "people are looking for answers to help understand many of the current events happening around us," said Prophecy News Watch Director Kade Hawkins.
"To those who teach Bible Prophecy such as Chuck Missler, the events in Syria, Iran, Israel and throughout the Middle East are considered a foreshadowing of bigger events yet to happen – events that were prophesized thousands of years ago but possibly may now be just around the corner," stated PNW. more >>
Seattle-based megachurch pastor Mark Driscoll took his latest criticism from some within the Christian community about the way he handled the topic of the earth's environment while joking at a recent Christian leadership conference as an opportunity to write about his environmentally conscious family and how humor can be found in parts of the Bible.
One point of contention about his talk at the Catalyst Conference in Dallas was his statement (joke) in which he said, "I know who made the environment. He's coming back, and he's going to burn it all up. So yes, I drive an SUV."
Another point of controversy brought up by bloggers and some religion reporters, was his comment: "If you drive a mini-van, you're a mini-man." more >>
Recent reports indicate that the California-based Christian radio network Family Radio, run by evangelist Harold Camping, may be facing dire economic straits, as seen by public tax documents and alleged interviews with former Family Radio employees.
The evangelical radio network, which has been on-air since 1958, has reportedly sold its three largest FM radio stations: WFME in Newark-New York City, WFSI in Annapolis, Md.-Washington, D.C., and WKDN in Philadelphia. Additionally, the Associated Press reported Monday that "tax records show the nonprofit network saw its net assets drop to $29.2 million by the end of 2011, from a net worth of $135 million four years earlier."
This information was first reported by the local Contra Costa Times newspaper in a recent investigative piece titled "End of the World for Oakland's Family Radio?" more >>

Dell says its ultra-thin Adamo notebook PC — which hits the market today, about three months after the company first gave a sneak peek of the machine — was "created to disrupt people's perceptions of what personal computing is today."
That seems to be about right, since personal computing today seems to be all about super-low prices and a lack of glitz. For the past year, the fastest-growing segment of the market has been netbooks–sub-$500 notebook PCs that don't have much power, but are easy on the wallet.
In a note last week, Toni Sacconaghi, an analyst at Sanford Bernstein, wrote about "a new paradigm of low-cost computing" based on cheap processors and a version of Linux — rather than Microsoft's Windows operating system. To reenforce their point, the analysts built a $250 PC that they say is perfectly functional (though its case is a cardboard box).
The Adamo, in contrast costs $2,000, runs on a customized version of Microsoft Vista, and features a glitzy metal case. Dell is promoting it with pictures of models who look as thin and glossy as the Adamo itself.
As Dell's first foray into high-end design, expectations for the Adamo are relatively low. Dell marketing manager John New said last week that the company doesn't expect to sell a tremendous volume, since the high price limits it to a niche market. There's also the issue of competition — Dell's entry into the ultra-thin, ultra-expensive market trails other PC makers — for about the same price as the Adamo, you can get the skinny MacBook Air from Apple, the slim, carbon fiber Voodoo Envy from H-P, or a similar Lenovo machine.
Or, as the Bernstein analysts show, you could get six bare-bones desktops (albeit with cardboard covers) and have plenty of cash left over for a netbook.

Protector's The Heritage manages a few great feats: first and foremost it's a good thrash album in 1993, which is quite noteworthy in of itself, and, secondly, it features a line-up that has nothing in common with their 1980s stuff. And yet, this album is definitely deserving of the Protector namesake: tense, energetic death-thrash with plenty of distinct Protector-isms that fans will recognise from classics like Urm the Mad. In fact, as far as the Wiebel-era of the band goes I'd have to say that I like this a little bit more than A Shedding of Skin. Surely, as the title might well suggest this is a band fully aware of their own heritage.
What with it being the thrash recession one would expect that this album would show a considerable reduction in quality when compared to the band's should-be-legendary 1980s output. After all, in the December of 1992, all German thrash bands were reduced to drinking only Aldi's pissy, plastic-bottled lager given the levels of the thrash crisis in the face of death metal's superiority. But still, the songs here are urgent and some are really very memorable. My favourite would have to be 'Convicts on the Streets' which displays what is normally considered the absolute bane of most thrash bands: a groove metal influence. Yes, indeed, after a typically kinetic thrash intro the band drive straight into a riff that bares more than a passing resemblance to Pantera's 'Walk'. I don't have any major problem with any of Pantera's output, but it just strikes me as strange that whereas 99% of thrash bands incorporating their influence ended up with something terrible, Protector struck gold. Rather surprising, I'd say. The song's genuinely memorable, too, with a change of vocal style and some swung rhythms. It seems that there were some who could successfully diverge from the established formula and still come up with something worthwhile.
The rest of the album, however, is typical death-thrash; you'll get the odd melodic solo here and there, and a creepy clean intro, but nothing that'll surprise you too much. Still, this is Protector so they really don't give any less than compelling stuff. Of course, the band have more than a passing familiarity with extreme metal – in fact, they'd (well, the band, not the musicians on this album) been plying blistering extreme thrash since '86. As such you'll hear a fair few blast beats and the vocals are even more guttural than those Martin Missy provided on Urm the Mad (albeit not as distinctive). So, while there is an extreme influence, it's not like Protector were caught with their trousers down in the no-thrash-1990s and frantically decided to tack on some death metal influences. Take the excellent, 'Scars Bleed Life Long', for an example, with its pulsating deathly verses and a chorus that retains catchiness of thrash.
So although not an absolute classic, this is still another worthwhile entry into Protector's catalogue with some cool instrumental work. For a 1993 thrash album it is simply outstanding and alongside Sodom's Get What You Deserve it's one of the very few good albums that I've heard from this genre in the mid-1990s. The writing, whilst not always excellent, is generally good and the band are clearly enjoying themselves (just check out the hyper-speed blast of 'Paralizer' for further proof). Simply put, if you like Protector, you should go ahead and check it out. And if you can find an actual copy, pick it up – it's OOP and it doesn't like it'll be reissued any time soon.
It was time for radical changes for Protector in 1993. The tragic death of former drummer Michael Hasse made the band face the 90's with uncertainty and doubts. Although by 1992 a completely new line-up was already playing some gigs in their home country. The only musician left from the previous album line-up was Olly Wiebel, now supported by a professional rhythmic section: Matze Grün on bass and Marco Pape on drums. Not a single member of the Protector classic line-up (Missy-Müller-Belichmeier-Hasse) was in the group anymore, making this new project more abstract and kinda senseless. I admit I was skeptic about this record, with new music players, sound and influences, recorded in difficult times for thrash but fine times for death.
But all my doubts and fears got completely smashed by the first riff sequence from the outrageous opening track. And well, the following 3 cuts feature (more or less) that same song-structure. The faces have changed but not the aggression, brutality and distinctive harsh sonic attack from previous records, including impressive cathartic riffs, merciless, sadistic, absolutely relentless and terrifying. On those 4 songs there's a bunch of violent riff series that will make you headbang like mad; the drum work is also extremely fast so intensity and violence are guaranteed. The group surely chose the death ways, getting distant from thrash which was going through bad times by that year, so I guess this more death-focused sound was a sensible choice to survive. That outrageous velocity takes a lot of influence from Morbid Angel, early 90's devastating Pestilence raw sound, even Terrorizer or the Florida adventure third Napalm Death album seemed to inspire Olly and co. And as I mentioned before, the fantastic first 4 tracks follow a similar structure: straight frantic killer riffs that in the half of the composition get quieter, weighty and mid-paced when the band introduces a slow lengthy break, then aggression reappears and it's time for the pickin' part. So those solid tunes are lethal enough to make this album worth listening to. The next numbers are another part of the story, something different and I'm afraid weaker. "Convicts On The Streets" and "Protective Unconsciousness" include some dumb unpleasant groovy moments that follow the trend of the times. They remind me a lot of Pantera ("Walk" in particular!) and their song-writing is kinda uninspired, repetitive and lame. The worst stuff ever from this band, although there are maybe a couple of good riffs in that embarrassing wreck. Unless you like incompetent imitations of Anselmo and co., you'd better skip those. I must highlight the only instrumental cut on the whole record, "Palpitation", whose first 2 minutes are a waste, but after that the majestic powerful riffing exhibition starts, the most strengthful since Dark Angel's immense "Cauterization". The other songs left to comment are avoidable: the bunch of noise sequel song of their 1989's "Molotow Cocktail", "Paralizer", and the 1 minute length outro which is an answer to Possessed's "Dog Fight".
The final result of this record is decent; I wish they didn't follow the fashion music of those days though. It's alright when they perform their outstanding savage death/thrash, not so consistent when they experiment with those modern sounds and elements. However, this bizarre new line-up is totally skilled and marvelous on each song. Olly particularly; his talent, creativity and technique have improved a lot since the last album. His fingers are faster and more insatiable than ever before on each of his solid heavy riffs and hooks. Completely admirable guitar work, but the solos are still sloppy and noisy. At times he tries to emulate Dimebag Darrell with mediocre results, abusing of his pedal effects. His voice, on other hand, is much more defined, guttural and incredibly evil compared to what we heard before from him. Great contribution from this guy who started in this band replacing original bassist Ede Belichmeier in a couple of shows, then took the vocalist role and finally the guitar duties as well, becoming lord and master of Protector. The only instruments he didn't ever play were drums, but he chose the right replacement for Hasse: Mr. Marco Pape is a virtuoso with superb abilities and complete control of his double bass-drums specially. Check the amusing short drum solo on "Chronology"! Bassist Matze Grün is missing on the whole album, except when both guitars and drums mute, then you can hear him. It came as no surprise that bass faded away in the final mix, typical from thrash and death stuff. The production is rich, powerful and well-balanced though, the finest this group ever had, something that contributes to make this release memorable and listenable. Fortunately, this time they aren't playing so many exhausting acoustic intros in the style of "Necropolis" as on the previous album, so there's more continuity and straighter energy in this one.
It took so long for me to find this one, it has always been like a ghost album or something to me because I couldn't get it anywhere, it's very rare. Maybe that's why Protector fans don't talk much about it, but it's worth listening to, even if there's some lame moments. I can't obviously put this material in the same level as the classic Protector stuff, we could have all lived without it – but as a final release (until the 21st century group resurrection) is pretty decent. As we all know, the group languished in obscurity during the tough 90's as many other Teutonic metal heroes (Marco kept the group alive but as a live band only, apart that 2000 demo). And since 2011, Missy is back and resurrected Protector in Sweden with a completely new line-up, even announced a new CD that will be probably released next month. Let's hope it will be good.
Protector is primarily known for their death thrash of the mid and late 1980's. They in part helped develop the Teutonic death metal scene and arguably on a small scale the death metal scene through out Europe. The years leading up to their final album saw them getting a progressively heavier, faster and more developed death metal sound. When Olly Wiebel replaced original vocalist Martin Missy in late 1989 the band turned to a more developed death metal sound. By the time "The Heritage" was released in 1993 hundreds of bands were producing full on death metal albums, but none are as balanced as "The Heritage".
The album is full of tempo changes, even more so than their previous album, "A Shedding Of Skin". This does not mean though that it is in the least bit slow, in fact the song "Chronology" has the fastest thrash/skank beats that the band ever produced. The album is moderately technical, but the most important thing on this album is the high quality musicianship that it possesses. This album is the most well written death metal album that I have personally ever listened to, it is on the same scale as Dark Angel's technical thrash album "Time Does Not Heal", Incubus's "Beyond The Unknown", Cancer's "The Sins Of Mankind", and Armagedon's "The Invisible Circle". Take for example the song "Lost Properties", the intro sends a chill down your spine, they played a very fast tremolo riff at very high tuning to get the effect that sounds like sea gulls, highly innovative, and just shows how serious Protector was in making a masterpiece death metal album.
Most bands that play as fast as Protector have a hard time stepping back and composing a album that is not only fast but that has substance to it. For Protector, this album was at their pinnacle, because with as many albums as they had under their belt they had the knowledge and experience necessary to focus and hone in on a sound that they could call their own. In most previous albums they strived to be fast and heavy with less emphasis on control. "A Shedding Of Skin" is where the band began to focus on maturing their sound and in many ways helped develop what they did on this album. In a macro view of the album it is apparent that a great deal of time and money was spent in production. This is in stark contrast to the majority of extreme metal bands in the early 1990's, even well known death metal bands of the time like Morbid Angel and Deicide did not have as great of production and clarity in sound on their albums in comparison to "The Heritage".
In conclusion, this album is the epitome of death metal and I am not afraid to say that this is in every way what I consider to be the best death metal album of all time, based on its level of composition, musicianship, innovation, production, speed, and heaviness.
Protector's name typically roots them in the thrash metal genre as they are best known for their Kreator-meets-Sodom influenced thrash album "Golem" from the late 80's. Their early 'thrash' sound was a mixture of hardcore, (previously mentioned) German thrash bands and 80's death metal. In 1991 "A Shedding of Skin" found Protector embracing a somewhat American style of death metal similar to that of Pestilence's "Malleus Maleficarum." By 1993 death metal was coming into its own mainstream art form, thrash metal was 'out' and Pantera's groove metal was 'in'. Protector's final album "The Heritage" is an eclectic mixture of the bands previous death/thrash styles and features some successful modern (at the time) experimentation.
'Mental Malaria' kicks off the album with a blast, a galloping death metal song with double bass drumming and wailing guitars. The style and energy of the opening song brings to mind the frantic intensity of Insanity's "Death After Death" album. The title track nearly resembles Deicide's self-titled debut or "Altars of Madness" with it's jumpy thrash riffs and death metal breaks. Track five is where the album's momentum sort of hiccups, and the tone of the album changes. Up pops "Convicts on the Street" an anomalous song that combines a riff akin to Pantera's "Walk" with an otherwise classic death metal arrangement. The product is some kind of death metal influenced rock song that is actually pretty decent. It might be the only groove song you ever like... Protector never wrote (or sang) like this on any other song they released. As the rest of the album plays "Palpitation" shows a nice bit of epic "Coma of Souls" influence.
"The Heritage" is a successful death/thrash metal album, mixing the styles at a 75/25 rate. Putting on a Protector album and not getting the sloppy "Golem" style thrash might put off some fans, but if you liked "A Shedding of Skin" and "Urm the Mad" this album will make sense. Will this album please classic thrash fans? Maybe, if you're open to old school death metal. Will this album please classic death metal fans? Yes, apart from the groove song, this should find a comfortable spot in your old school death metal collection.

The cover is very well built and is beautiful to look at. But it's not with out is faults. First of all, unlike the G2 it doesn't not come with a gasket not is it much larger than the stock cover it replaces. I bought the cover thinking I would increase the fluid capacity and have the rear end run cooler. It might be slightly larger but not as big as the G2, nor does it have cooling fins to help with temp control. I'm towing a toy hauler and temp is the main concern. I also had leaking problems.

Six long years. That's how long Spineshank has been away. Nine long years. A near decade has passed since the band's last studio album and subsequent Grammy nomination. On the comeback trail, Spineshank has released "Anger Denial Acceptance," their new record that attempts to encapsulate all the emotions that one experiences after life-altering events.
For those who heard "Kiss the Sun Goodbye," the debut album from Vampires Everywhere!, get that image out of your mind. It is meaningless now, a blip of adolescence that one must stumble through before emerging as a man.
This is not what I expected. Dr. Acula traditionally has presented listeners with wildly variable, scatter-brained music, embracing frayed edges and the pure nonsense that deathcore makes possible. I expected more of the same from "Nation," and was instead presented with a relatively cohesive, all-systems-go, straight ahead moshfest that not only sounds marginally out of character for the band, but is a solid improvement.
Psychology has taught us many things about the human condition, few of which can be applicable to an examination of a black metal album. However, there is one phenomenon that is worth considering. We've learned, through studies, that humans are better able to differentiate between members of their own ethnic/racial group than those of other backgrounds. Likewise, fans of black metal will have no problem identifying Brume D'Automne from every other similar band, and can point to the qualities that make them stand out as a unique entity.
No great story can be told without drama. Uncomfortable though it may be, conflict is what keeps us engaged in the narrative, what makes us connect with the characters as they soldier on through their journeys. The life of a band is one of those stories, so many of them littered with lineup changes and shifts in direction, always searching for resolution. It is befitting that a band trafficking in epic sounds would have an equally grand story to tell, and such is the case for Rhapsody.
Following in the footsteps of legendary talent is never an easy thing. It's a thankless task, one that ensures the person in question will spend an entire career failing to live up to the standard that was set before them. In that spirit, anyone who still decides to travel down the well-worn road should be commended for their courage, regardless of the end result of their efforts. For every Norah Jones, there are dozens who's careers are only notable for their name.
As Kreator hovers around thirty years in the game, it's tough to have new commentary about their efforts. What can be said about Kreator that hasn't been said before? The corollary question to all of this is "is there anything new that needs to be said?"
This is not your father's heavy metal band. Whitechapel has always been labeled as a deathcore band, but there's more to it than that. They stem from a short-lived but extremely popular splinter of heavy metal that recalls the kind of brassy, grinding sound that dominated the years immediately following the change of millennium. This splinter gave rise to a burst of musicians such as The Red Chord, Nile and Converge, but then sank back into the background.
Having just released the excellent "The Hunt", Grand Magus sees two of their critically-acclaimed previous released reissued for fans who may have missed out on the band as they ascended to the top of the traditional metal ranks. The climb started with "Wolf's Return", the album that started to build a buzz around the band. Mixing elements of doom into a traditional metal framework, the album straddles the line between crushing riffs and the sound that would expand their horizons.
Since the release of their debut "Break the Silence," we've seen independent (not to be confused with "indie,") band The Product come a long way. Their debut was high on effort but not entirely a finished product (pardon the pun.) This new EP finds the band at a greater stage of maturity and musical evolution, more befitting a band in this modern rock revolution.

bubble memorybubble memory
Origin of bubble memoryfrom the appearance of these areas under a microscope
bubble memory
(plural bubble memories)
- (computing) A type of non-volatile computer memory that uses a thin film of magnetic material to hold small magnetized areas, known as bubbles or domains, each storing one bit of data.
bubble memory - Computer Definition
An early non-volatile magnetic storage device. Developed by Bell Labs researcher Andrew Bobeck in the 1970s, bubble memory was about as fast as a slow hard disk but it held its content without power. As hard disks greatly improved in the 1980s, bubble memory was abandoned even though it was well suited for rugged applications. Only a couple of square inches in size, a bubble memory module contained a thin film magnetic recording layer, and globular-shaped bubbles (bits) were electromagnetically generated in circular strings inside this layer. In order to read or write the bubbles, they were rotated past the equivalent of a read/write head.

Show some compassion for driver injured in crash
The recent accident, and I stress the word accident, by an elderly woman was unfortunate. In addition to causing a restaurant to close for repairs, it caused extensive injuries to the driver.
The damage to the restaurant will no doubt be covered by insurance and the injured driver will be facing a long healing process. But in the midst of all this is the insensitivity shown by the owner of the restaurant who put up a sign stating that his business was closed "due to careless driving." This was an accident, but the owner, defending the sign, states: "I think I have a damn right to be insensitive. I didn't ask for this." Well, I don't think any one of us asks for an accident to happen, do we?
I didn't see anything in The News article about the owner asking what the condition of the driver was, only that his business will suffer. In addition, he questioned whether the driver, because of her age, should have been driving at all. That statement is going to go over great with the majority of his patrons, who are elderly. He should observe what goes on behind the wheel of younger drivers. They tweet, use cellphones and text. My wife and I even observed a young woman adjusting her pony tail while going through a red light with both hands off the wheel.
This accident didn't occur because the driver was elderly, but because it was simply that – an accident. It seems that whenever an accident involves an elderly driver, the cry goes out to get them off the road. I wish the driver a speedy recovery and hope that, in the spirit of the season, the restaurant owner finds it in his heart to forgive her.

The Guia circuit is a treacherous track and all the three drivers who were aiming to become champion – Michelisz, Pepe Oriola and Stefano D'Aste – were involved in different incidents that left them out of the points.
It was a well deserved triumph for the young Hungarian and the Zengö Motorsport team at the end of a season in which they claimed victory at the Hungaroring, two other podium finishes and sixth position in the title race.
Michelisz said: "At the beginning of the season we had three targets: to finish higher than ninth in the Drivers' Championship, to win an overall race and to claim the Yokohama Trophy.
"We have achieved them all, and for this I am very happy for myself and for the team. Although I must say that the end of the season has left a bad taste in my mouth.
"In the three latest events I have scored only five points and today I had the pace to finish the second race in second place, but Pepe Oriola made a mistake and spoiled my race and his."

I've seen this used on a fair number of sites, and just curious how it's done? Is this a specific plugin or a hack that's implemented?
It basically turns the text of the post title into an image, using a font of choice (I think) though I'm not quite sure how they add all those effects such as color and drop shadow. Unless of course they actually sit down and make a new image for each and every post they make.
My friend showed me somethign like this he was doing in php. Any ideas on this?
Thanks in advance
