Although the possible hit list also includes the Florida Marlins, Tampa Bay Devil Rays and Oakland A's, the other bleeding candidate for "contraction" is the Minnesota Twins. Unlike the Expos, the Twins have loyal fans and a competitive if inexperienced team. But the state's flinty taxpayers have refused to chip in for a new stadium to replace the charmless Metrodome, meaning that the Twins can't enhance revenues from skyboxes and naming rights and such. The Twins also have an owner, billionaire banker Carl Pohlad, who has been unwilling to invest in big salaries. "It makes no sense...
Other highlights include the power ballad “Close to You,” which just might bring a tear to one’s eye given a few beers beforehand, and “Devil Digger,” which builds a thumping and grinding riff so great that one would find it hard not to at least bob a head to, if not bang. “Cyberface” sounds alarmingly derivative of a Rammstein song, with slow and thick riffing ensconsed in a keyboard melody, which shows that the band is not altogether above nabbing...
Overall, the record is entertaining, but it is not a new standard in metal or the beginning of any new chapter for the one-time kings of leather and chain.

Some enterprising Blue Devil fan got the idea of distributing thousands of copies of a fake Cota mug shot to the crowd, who held them up throughout the game while chanting, Go to jail, Ed Cota, go to jail (to the rhythm of the traditional anti-UNC taunt, Go to Hell, Carolina, go to Helleat...
...embassy, which since then has been used as a high school for children of the Revolutionary Guards, was opened to the public for the first time. Iran is also commemorating the anniversary with an exhibit dedicated to "America's crimes around the world"--featuring crude and macabre displays, from devil-horned effigies of Uncle Sam to a Statue of Liberty with a live dove behind bars in its stomach. It would seem Iran is still as furiously anti-U.S. as it was in 1979. Such propaganda hardly fits with recent signals of improved cooperation prompted by the Afghan...
