RESURRECTION PEOPLE We are a resurrection people. Living on the Gulf of Mexico has made us so and those who fail to recognize that key component of our DNA will forever discount and underestimate us. We live under the annual threat of hurricanes, but no matter how devastating any storm may be we clean up the mess, we pull together and we rebuild. Hurricane Ivan rocked Escambia and Santa Rosa counties in September 2004. Most of us woke up the morning after the storm with our roofs leaking or missing. Trees blocked streets and bridges were washed out. People were left without food, water, shelter and possibly even jobs. A decade later, downtown Pensacola is going through a renaissance. The recovery is paper thin, but a vibrancy exists that other cities wish they could have. The once dormant corners of Palafox and Main streets are now a robust retail destination and Palafox Place has replaced Gregory Street has Pensacola’s restaurant row. Pensacola Beach and Perdido Key have also bounced back with record numbers of tourists. The handoff of tourism marketing from the Greater Pensacola Chamber to the new Visit Pensacola, Inc. has gone well and the local economy should reap the benefits this year. More job opportunity is on the horizon with Navy Federal Credit Union, ST Aero-

space and Off shore Inland hiring by the hundreds. Though leaders at the city and county are not quite yet in step, the new independent agency being established to focus on economic development should take politics out of that arena. That leaves two lingering problems that need the same type of attention and emphasis as our economic recovery—health and public education. Physical and mental health outcomes in this community are deplorable. We have over a decade of research that proves we are headed in the wrong direction. The Partnership for a Healthy Community is trying to help, but the effort will need more community-wide support. Politicians and business leaders don’t like to talk about the state of public education in Escambia County. When they do, only a few highlights are mentioned. The Escambia County school system is at a crisis level. The students are performing below their grade levels and nearly a third are not graduating. No matter how hard one tries to polish that cow patty it will never be a brownie. The time has come to apply the same spirit we marshaled after Hurricane Ivan towards health and education. As it was in the fall of 2004, failure is not an option. Otherwise, our resurrection will never be complete. {in} rick@inweekly.net

FOOD TRUCK PILOT PROGRAM COMING Sherry Morris, the city of Pen-

sacola’s Planning Services Administrator, has sent the city council a draft document outlining the city's upcoming Food Truck Pilot Program, which is modeled after the one in New Orleans. “We believe that this program will be a good ‘first step’ toward creating and implementing a permanent set of regulations,” Morris said. “Our intent is to kick off the pilot program on May 1 and operate it for a six-month period.”

April 17, 2014

all the political news and gossip fit to print

During the trial period, Morris and her staff will monitor the program to find what is needed for a formal ordinance governing food trucks and what that ordinance should include. Food truck must be licensed. They cannot be parked within 20 feet of any intersection or traffic signs and signals. The truck will not be allowed on South Palafox Street between Garden and Main streets. They cannot sell alcoholic beverages or place tables and chairs near the truck. Councilman Andy Terhaar reviewed the draft and told the Independent News he would like a 100-ft buffer from existing restaurants to be added. “I think there needs to be a buffer, and I think it would be harder to add it in after the pilot program,” Terhaar said. “If they had it in there in the beginning and then wanted to remove it, I think that would be easier. I find it is always easier to make something less restrictive after it has had

a chance to be tested than to make it more restrictive.”

FORMER CHAMBER CFO SANCTIONED Circuit Judge Michael

Jones has ordered sanctions against former Greater Pensacola Chamber CFO Brian McBroom, his attorney Harry V. Satterwhite of Mobile and Satterwhite’s law firm, Satterwhite, Buffalow & Tyler. According to the judge’s ruling recorded in March, the sanctions were ordered because McBroom and his attorneys failed to voluntarily dismiss claims of breach of contract against his former boss, Jim Hizer and of wantonness and false-light against Hizer and the chamber. Hizer, who was the chamber’s president and CEO at the time, terminated McBroom on Jan. 7, 2013. A few weeks later, auditors were unable to account for gift cards funded by grants from BP. At a chamber press conference, Hizer said it was McBroom’s responsibility to oversee the gift cards. On

“We believe that this program will be a good ‘first step’ toward creating and implementing a permanent set of regulations.” Sherry Morris

March 29, 2013, McBroom filed suit against the chamber and Hizer, which asked for $3.62 million in damages for breach of contract and defamation Two months later, the executive committee of the Greater Pensacola Chamber voted to not renew Hizer’s contract. Though the missing BP cards and the McBroom lawsuit were not given as reasons for the decision, they most likely contributed. In July 2013, the CPA firm Saltmarsh, Cleaveland & Gund completed its investigation of the BP gift card program administrated by the Greater Pensacola Chamber. Of the 6,060 cards distributed by the chamber, only 65 cards went unaccounted. Two months later, a judge dismissed all counts against Hizer and only left the breach of contract against the chamber remain to be considered. McBroom’s attorneys amended their complaint, alleged defamation against Hizer and the breach of contract against the chamber alone. On the heels of Judge Johnson’s sanction ruling, attorney John Asmar, who represents Hizer, said he and the chamber attorneys have filed separate motions to have the remaining counts dismissed. That hearing will be May 9. {in}

ven casual readers of the IN have probably picked up on the fact that we advocate supporting locally-owned businesses whenever possible. It's just who we are—week in, week out and it pretty much goes without saying most of the time. But once a year, we actually say it and then say it again just in case you somehow missed it. We call that issue Stay Local. This year actually marks our fifth annual issue—which means staying local has staying power. It also means we've got to find new ways to tell you why staying local matters.

April 17, 2014

We figured why not go to the source, so we talked to local business owners who support this local business. We also looked at some new studies, like the “Indie Impact Series” done by Civic Economics in partnership with the American Booksellers Association. In 2012, they compared the recirculation of revenue from national chains like Home Depot, Target and McDonald’s with independent retailers in 10 participating cities. This study concluded that 13.6% of revenue from chain stores gets recirculated into the local economy,

while the percentage for independents is much higher: 47.7%. We also found some stats that further attest to the positive impact of keeping your dollars local. Like the Small Business Administration's finding that small businesses donate nearly twice as much per employee to charitable organizations than large businesses. So next time you're debating Walmart or mom and pop, remember the power of staying local. We promise the feel good effects of knowing that about half of every dollar you spend is going back into your town will be worth it. 9

STILL STAYING LOCAL Small businesses accounted for

The next best thing to keeping a dollar in your pocket is keeping it in your community. That puts more dollars in all of our pockets and improves the quality of life for everyone. Michael Murdoch, CEO and Co-Founder of AppRiver

WHY DOES STAY LOCAL MATTER TO YOU AND YOUR BUSINESS?

"By staying local, jobs are secured and created and overall life is better for people." Quint Studer, owner of The Studer Group 010 1

"The benefits of staying local include easy access, easy follow-up, and trusted referrals from friends and medical personnel. Patients come from all over the region to access our medical providers." Kevin Welch MD, Cosmetic Dermatologist at Dermatology and Laser Center

"Being in the service industry, we depend on our local clientele to stay in business. We put our hearts into our work, and we always want to give them our very best. You won't find that in big business." Stephanie E. Knight, owner and Licensed Massage Therapist at Escape Wellness Spa inweekly.net

STILL STAYING LOCAL Love Pensacola, buy Pensacola. Every dollar spent with a Pensacola-area business shows your confidence in our people, our businesses and what we can accomplish. Successful local businesses draw more business. Every dollar spent locally is a very real investment in our overall economic growth. Kurt Stenerson, Vice President of Marketing at Gulf Winds Federal Credit Union

89%

of consumers agree that independent businesses contribute positively to local economies

Small businesses employ

77 million Americans

Independent locally owned and operated businesses are often the only places you find products made by other small businesses—usually because there’s not enough of the really good stuff to go around or the profit margin isn’t high enough for the big guys to stock.

Stay local not only matters to my business and me, it matters to the local economy. We employ approximately 60 people in the community. Every dollar spent in our stores is redistributed back into this community. Shawna Fisher, Vice President of Aqua Décor & Design and Aqua Pool & Patio

Stay local is important to me because local business owners do what they do for the love of it. It's hard to run a business. It's a daily struggle, but the passion I feel for my store and my customers makes it worthwhile. Charlotte Gordon, owner of Aragon Wine Market

Residential neighborhoods served by a successful independent business district gained, on average,

"Stay local gives us unique and interesting places to shop. It also gives us the best opportunity at quality customer service. Stay local supports our community in creating the ideal community." Andrea Wessel, owner of Blue Moon Antique Mall

April 17, 2014

"At our spa, we take care of clients from all over the country and the world, but our favorites are the wonderful local people we take care of consistently. It's very satisfying to witness a life grow calmer, muscles become more functional or skin become clearer with the specialized help that we provide." Mary Anne Aanestad ARNP, owner of Still Water Day and Medical Spa

"We have established a business based on meeting the fitness needs of our area, specifically for those that live and love the Emerald Coast, 365 days a year. Staying local allows us to continue to provide superior Pilates training to Pensacola and Gulf Breeze." Susan Clark, owner and Master Trainer at Pure Pilates

Record Store Day 101 • DO YOUR HOMEWORK

Just because a store sells records doesn't mean they get in on the RSD action, and just because you like a band doesn't mean they are going to have a RSD release for you to buy. You are going to want to make sure you know what you're looking and where to try and get it before the big day. Studying the list of official releases on recordstoreday.com is the best place to start. As far as where to shop here in Pensacola, see "Know Your Store" for the lowdown on Revolver Records and Music Box (the two local shops participating in RSD this Saturday).

Anyone who has ever been to RSD will tell you the good stuff goes FAST.

RSD 2013 line at Revolver Recrods / photo by Hana Frenette Here at the IN, we don't just write about Record Store Day. We love it. We look forward to it all year. We keep up with the releases like it's our job (because it kind of is). We make lists (and back-up lists) of what we hope to score on that special Saturday. But if you're new to Record Store Day, you're probably going to need some help figuring out exactly how it works. For starters, RSD only happens at participating independent record stores, which are defined by the RSD team as "stand alone brick and mortar retailers whose main primary business focuses on a physical store location, whose product line consists of at least 50 percent music retail, whose company is not publicly traded and whose ownership

is at least 70 percent located in the state of operation." RSD is celebrated on the third Saturday of April every year and has steadily grown since its inception in 2007. But even though there are more participating stores and artists each year, RSD is still pretty much a game of luck. Some of the releases are extremely limited, others are easier to come by, but it's still a toss up because the stores aren't guaranteed anything they order. They get what they get from the powers that be, and that's what is there for you to choose from. Here are some other tips from people who've been there before (aka the IN Staff). We hope they help you make the most of your RSD this Saturday.

• DON'T SLEEP IN

• WAIT PATIENTLY

If you do decide to line up outside of your local record store hours before doors opens, good for you for being ahead of the game. Just remember this doesn't mean the store has to rush to get ready or is OK with being bombarded before it's time. An opening time is an opening time.

Anyone who has ever been to RSD will tell you the good stuff goes FAST. Like within the first ten minutes of the Use the time in line to make friends. Or store opening fast.

• DON'T BE GREEDY

It's easy to get caught up in the excitement and just pick up anything with an RSD sticker on it, but don't let greed get the best of you— especially if you know the record in question is a super limited release and wasn't even on your list. Just because there's only one in the store doesn't mean you have to get it.

• FOCUS ON THE GOOD RSD sneak peeks / photo courtesy Revolver Records

• BE NICE

This one really should go without saying—but there's always at least one jerk out there who seems to forget, so here it is. Be nice to your fellow RSD shoppers, even the ones who are a little high strung. Also make sure and be nice to the record store staff, even if you learn they don’t have (or didn’t order) whatever piece was at the top of your list.

• NO PUSHING

Although we may joke about fighting over a record, it's not the way to go. Karma is a bitch and nobody likes a bully. Don't push your way into the store or to the crates.

No one is going to get everything they want on this music fanatic's holiday, so just be happy with whatever you happen to land. The disappointment of not obtaining X is usually dulled, often removed, by the excitement of hearing Y come through your speaker anyway.

• DON'T FORGET WHY YOU'RE REALLY THERE

Remember what RSD is all about, and that you're celebrating not only your own independent record store, but an entire network, a culture, a movement and ultimately the music. Also, don't forget that on all the other days of the year, your local shops are just as likely to have something super rad sitting on the shelf without the early wake up call and elbow-to-elbow crowds of RSD. Make sure you show your love more than just one day a year. {in}

Know Your Stores MUSIC BOX

REVOLVER RECORDS

Music Box owners Chuck Gardner and Ray Thall are participating in their second RSD event since purchasing the store in late April 2013. “We ordered a bunch of stuff,” Gardner said. “It’s always kind of a lottery, but we’ve increased the number of suppliers we’re ordering from, so hopefully we will have a lot of our requested items.” Gardner reported that in addition to the store’s increased RSD inventory order, he and Thall are consistently adding to the store’s inventory of new vinyl each week in all genres. The store’s crew is also planning a drawing for a choice piece of vinyl (for Black Friday RSD in November, the prize was an original copy of The Beatles’ “White Album”) to be determined. Specials on CDs will likely be in the mix as well.

Anyone who regularly shops at or follows Revolver Records on Facebook knows that owner Eric Jones usually orders a heap of RSD merchandise, and this RSD is no exception. As his first RSD delivery came in via UPS, Jones reported at a successful initial haul including coveted releases from Otis Redding, Velvet Underground, Outkast, Bruce Springsteen, and Pretty Lights, with more RSD shipments to follow. "I'll have a few Revolver-only RSD releases—exclusives you can get here and only here, no other store anywhere,” Jones stated. In addition to the smorgasbord of RSD merchandise he put in for, Jones also said there was a high probability of at least one local DJ spinning records live in the shop.

Staff Wish Lists recent Orange is the New Black convert), Man Man “The Man in Turban With Blue Face” and The Dresden Dolls “The Dresden Dolls.” I’d also be failing my super nerdy high school days if I didn’t try to pick up Bis’ new “Data Panik Etcetera."

When RSD rolls around, the IN staff goes all in. We show up early. We wait in line. We make new friends who love music as much as we do. And we almost always get at least one thing we're after. We hope that luck continues this Saturday. Here's a peek at our '14 RSD wish lists.

Jennifer: First on my list is Dolly Parton "Blue Smoke" because who doesn't want a sneak peak into Dolly's new album? Also Tears for Fears "Ready Boys and Girls." I don't listen to '80s music ironically, I listen because I love it, which means I love Tears for Fears, and I'm intrigued to see what Arcade Fire, Hot Chip and Animal Collective do with their songs. Lastly, Sam Cooke "Ain't That Good News" because everyone needs more soul. Sarah: If there is one RSD release I'm will-

ing to put up a fight for, it's Pinback's first full-length album that has never before been released on vinyl until now. I love all things Pinback, including the entirety of this album, which features one of my favorite Pinback tracks "Loro." I also wouldn't mind snagging Death Cab for Cutie's RSD release—a live album of their 2012 tour with Magik*Magik Orchestra, seeing as how I stand forever in awe of Ben Gibbard. As an added nugget of gold, the record includes multiple "Transatlanticism" tracks.

Jason: This year I am really hoping to get my hands on Built to Spill “Ultimate Alternative Wavers” 12,” the kind of surprising split from Sunny Day Real Estate and Circa Survive (which features Sunny Day’s first new recording since 2000) and Gram Parsons “Alternate Takes from GP and Grievous Angel.” Samantha: Aside from finally pur-

chasing a record player, my RSD wish list includes Conor Oberst “Hundreds of Ways/Fast Friends," Regina Spektor “You’ve Got Time” (especially since I’m a April 17, 2014

Jessica: Is “I want everything” an acceptable answer? Probably not, so I’ll go with The Pogues "Live with Joe Strummer," the Brian Jonestown Massacre/The Magic Castles split, Donny Hathaway “Live at the Bitter End 1971," Jake Bugg “Live at Silver Platters” and Fishbone's 12.” If there’s any money left over, I’d be happy to also score Of Montreal's “Satanic Panic” and The Cure/Dinosaur Jr. 7” Side By Side Series. And about 10 other things. Hana: First up, I want Gram Parsons "180

Gram: Alternate Takes from GP and Grievous Angel." Also on my list is Notorious B.I.G "Life After Death" because I still don't own any Biggie and that's a damn shame, Man Man “The Man in Turban With Blue Face,” (because if I got a coffee and put this on, I think it could inspire some intense house cleaning) and "A Rough Guide to Psychedelic Bollywood" (various artists). I want to dance around my house to this and pretend I'm in a remixed version of "The Darjeeling Limited."

Joani: I haven't missed a Death Cab for Cutie tour in ten years except for the 27-date run they did with Magik*Magik Orchestra, so of course my top priority on RSD will be getting my Gibbard-loving hands on a copy of "Live 2012." And yes, I know there are only 4,000 copies up for grabs, but that isn't going to stop me from trying to get one. After I secure my prize, I might also try and hunt down the Conor Oberst release and Vitamin String Quartet's cover of "Pinkerton." I have the album they did of Death Cabs songs (I told you I was a super fan) and I'd love to hear their take on Weezer's classic. {in}

by Sarah McCartan

The Voice of PRECUBED The more repetitive songs have room for improvising. It’s an all around different feel.

Chances are you've heard the instrumentation of local musician Aaron Finlay at least once, probably more, and in several capacities. This weekend you'll get to hear him front and center in the form of his solo project, PRECUBED. What began as a home recording project has transformed into far more over the past several years. Although Finlay is the man behind the band and the solo voice of PRECUBED, the onstage lineup has expanded to include a network of local musicians who are close friends. As far as the music goes, while the title of the latest EP is “Voices,” the music itself features primarily instrumental sounds from start to finish, with the exception of harmonious ooos and aaas. Along with releasing new music, Finlay has been adding more live shows to his recent schedule, including Friday, April 18 at Vinyl Music Hall, where he will be performing with locals Pioneers! O Pioneers! and Timberhawk, along with Baton Rougebased act, England in 1819. Leading up to this showcase at Vinyl, the IN caught up with Finlay to elaborate on the inspiration behind PRECUBED.

IN: How has PRECUBED shifted shapes since you started this project five years ago? Finlay: It started as a home recording project that evolved into a seven piece band with some of my best friends and favorite musicians: Brad Frick (Mi Capitan), Brandon Warren (Isle), David Doelker (Isle) Damien Louviere (Ashmen), Sean Peterson (Imaginary Air Show) and Tobi Echevarria (Isle). IN: How do you approach PRECUBED differently than the other projects you are involved with? Finlay: It’s a very go with the flow approach. Most of the songs are created during the recording. Not much is planned out. IN: Do you write and record everything entirely solo? Finlay: I recorded and performed everything up until the “Voices” EP. Brandon Warren played on a song and Sean Peterson recorded, mixed and performed as well. IN: How do the added players on stage change the energy and atmosphere from the recordings? Finlay: They add more dynamics to the music.

IN: As far as your new EP, "Voices" goes, was this something you've been working on for quite some time? Is there a full album in the works?

A Pioneer Send-off This show also marks a different occasion for fellow act Pioneers! O Pioneers! This show will be the band’s final performance. Over the course of the past four years, the IN has been sharing in the music, growth and development of these pioneers and looks forward to hearing their songs live, one last time.

Are you planning on scheduling more out of town? Finlay: Yes. I’m in booking mode right now. Just taking advantage of the downtime with the other projects. I can’t take too long of a break from playing original music. I’d go nuts.

“Instrumental music for me is just as important as a good lyric or melody.” Aaron Finlay Finlay: We recorded four songs in the span of two years. I was busy and focusing on other projects (Imaginary Air Show, Isle, Ashmen, etc). Not sure if or when I’ll record a full album. I’ve always been a fan of EP’s. 4-6 songs. IN: Any never before heard songs to be expected at Friday’s show? Finlay: It will be a mix of old and new songs. Pretty sure most of these songs will be new to a lot of people. IN: I noticed you will also be playing the following night at the Alabama Music Box in Mobile.

IN: Musically speaking, soundwise, is there any set direction you've been seeking to take PRECUBED from the start? Finlay: I’ve always wanted to do a movie score. Instrumental music for me is just as important as a good lyric or melody. I don’t want to limit my sound to a certain genre. I try to pull from everything I listen to.

An Earthy Get Together by Jessica Forbes

Bayview Park will once again transform into an eco-friendly festival ground for Pensacola’s annual Earth Day celebration. Eco-conscious vendors and exhibits, children’s activities, art, live music, and several speakers will celebrate all things green and sustainable in honor of Earth Day, which is officially observed on April 22. “The goal of Earth Day Pensacola is to provide as much earth education as

possible, but in a manner that individuals participating don't feel overwhelmed and feel confident implementing earth friendly practices in their daily life,” stated Mary Gutierrez, General Director of Earth Day Pensacola. Earth Day, first observed in the U.S. on April 22, 1970, went international in the 1990s with over 175 countries now participating. Pensacola has long held a celebration. Gutierrez, along with the other members of a six-member board who are organizing the Pensacola celebration, have come up with a few new ideas to broaden the event’s offerings. One of the new additions to the festival this year is a Friday night event for children and families. On Friday, April 18 from 5:30 to

8 p.m. there will be a showing of “The Lorax” at the Bayview Senior Resource Center with a potential treat for early birds: “The first 25 kids will get a copy of the book,” Gutierrez said. The kids’ section on Saturday has also been expanded, according to Gutierrez, and so has the speaker lineup, which covers topics from landscaping to recycling. A “Trashion” or recycled fashion show is making its debut at Earth Day Pensacola this year, along with a free yoga session by URU Yoga & Beyond, both taking place in the morning hours of the festival. There will be live music from 10 a.m. through 4 p.m. with performances by Ric Kindle, Das, Thomas La Voy, Bear With Me and Meanderthal. In addition, Gutierrez said the Earth Day Pensacola committee expects between 75 and 100 vendors to be on hand. So there’s no shortage of reasons to head to the park and experience the celebration—Mother Earth will definitely thank you. {in}

writing and recording music for the better part of 20 years, and for the most part, have stayed true to themselves. As of this year, they have recorded seven full-length albums (one under the name Norman Mailer), including their newest effort, “Doom Abuse.” When the band announced in 2008 that they were going on hiatus following the tour for their previous effort “Fasciinatiion,” I kind of assumed they felt they had run their course and planned to tuck and roll before it got stale. When I saw an EP of new music last year, I was more than pleasantly surprised. The Faint were a gateway band for me. They made things simpler to cross over from the world of mainstream alternative rock to finding more obscure bands that appealed to me, which led me further down the rabbit hole. In effect, The Faint built a bridge from Nine Inch Nails and

Nirvana to Cursive and Bright Eyes. As if not missing a beat coming off of hiatus, “Doom Abuse” delivers everything we expect from The Faint, including political ravings, dark humor, sexual overtones and of course, the gloomy dance punk that has brought them this far. However, to say the band hasn’t changed or grown would be unfair, as this album feels a bit more freewheeling and less agenda-based than previous efforts. The band announced “Doom Abuse” late in February and released the lead single ‘Help in the Head,’ which in retrospect served as the most proper introduction to the bulk of the album. All in all, “Doom Abuse” is catchy as hell, up-tempo and short enough to be easily digested. Now if they would only tour nearby. “Doom Abuse” is out now via SQE Music. {in}

There’s a really good batch of local bands.” There will be drink specials. There will be people eager to check out music, both familiar and unfamiliar. There will be food. And of course, there will be reminiscing, nostalgia and general appreciation for a place that has served as such an important outlet in the community for years. “If there are people who don’t WHEN: Thursday April 17- Saturday April 19 usually come out to shows who come WHERE: Sluggo's, 101 S.

photo by Samantha Crooke Sluggo’s has been a Pensacola staple for years. Regardless of the size, condition or location of the building, people have continued to support it. This weekend, Sluggo’s will hold a music festival Thursday through Saturday to celebrate its four-year anniversary at its current location on Jefferson Street downtown. “It was originally just going to be a Friday and Saturday thing, but it really grew quicker than we expected,” manager Gina Mangold said. “It transpired into this event where we can celebrate the place, but also all the people that helped us get here.” Twenty-three bands are scheduled to play over the three days and all but three are local. “Those who are playing but don’t live here are old friends of Sluggo’s,” Mangold said. “Names you’ve probably seen or heard before.”

The shows are all ages and scheduled to start promptly at 8 p.m. each night to ensure that all the bands will fit into the schedule. “I can remember cramming like seven or eight people into a van when we were younger and driving over to the Sluggo’s on Cervantes to see a show because it was one of the only all ages venues in the area,” Sluggo’s employee Josh Carroll said. “I moved back here last fall and started working at Sluggo’s in October. I used to go to lots of show at the Cervantes location, but it’s been really great being downtown. There will just be a big crowd out front on a Saturday. It’s great.” The Jefferson Street location has allowed Sluggo’s to embrace being a restaurant and build a larger clientele on that end, but maintaining its reputation as a key local music venue has always been on the forefront of their business plan.

news of the weird DOWN ON THE DEER FARM The billiondollar deer-farming industry in America produces generations of bucks growing progressively larger racks of antlers mainly for eventual bragging rights by the socalled "hunters" who will pay large fees to kill them in fenced-in fields just so they can hang the grotesque antlers in their dens. Even before the farm-raised deer are stalked (reported The Indianapolis Star in March in its multipart investigation), bucks' necks habitually slump from the weight of the freakish antlers. Most states allow such "hunting," and in some, the activity is lightly regulated, lacking the safety rules and more-humane conditions required by open-forest hunting laws and agriculture protocols. The Indianapolis Star also highlighted several captive-deer diseases that doctors still worry might jump species to humans (as "mad cow" disease did). RECURRING THEMES News of the Weird has several times chronicled the sad saga of India's holy but severely polluted Ganges River, on which millions of Hindus are dependent—through hands-on worship—for worldly success and for salvation. Now, recent reports reveal that the second-holiest river, the Yamuna, is suffering the same fate even though the government has invested nearly $1 billion in programs to clean it up. Currently, for example, more than 400 million gallons of untreated sewage, plus various industrial chemicals, enter the river from Delhi, but still, motivated worshippers come to "bathe" for glory. • Stories That Never Get Old: Dayton, Ohio, bus driver Rickey Wagoner, 49, survived a three-bullet shooting in February that, police said, was probably a gang initiation that randomly targeted him as he worked on his bus's engine. A police sergeant told the Dayton Daily News that Wagoner "should probably not be here" and survived the attack only because two of the bullets were blocked by a copy of "The Message" (a contemporary version of the Bible) in Wagoner's shirt pocket.

• Allowing dogs as "witnesses" in court cases in France has become "something of a recent trend," reported the Paris edition of the European news site The Local in April. A 9-year-old Labrador retriever (Tango) took the witness stand in the city of Tours so the judge could observe how he reacted to the defendant, on trial for killing the dog's owner. (For due process of law, a second dog, Norman, took the stand later, as a "control group.") Ultimately, the judge said he learned nothing from the dogs and dismissed them. • "Zero Tolerance": Yet another questionable school suspension was handed down in March, in Virginia Beach, Va., when the sixth-grader who had prevented a classmate from intentionally harming himself was punished for her altruism. Adrionna Harris had convinced a boy to hand over the razor blade he was threatening himself with, and she immediately discarded it. According to the principal, that transaction meant Harris "possessed" a "dangerous weapon," albeit for a brief time, and she was suspended for 10 days, according to school policy. (After WAVY-TV's "On Your Side" reporters got involved, the school relented, and Harris returned to class.) • "Arranged" Bride Fights Back: Ms. Fatima Mangre, 8, was granted a divorce from her husband, Arjun Bakridi, 14, in India's Uttar Pradesh state in November, becoming the youngest divorcee in the country's recorded history. Bakridi, then age 10, had married Mangre, then age 4, but his father promised that the couple would not cohabit until she turned 18. When Bakridi tried to move up the date, Mangre's dad filed divorce papers for his daughter. The legal age for marriage in the state is 18, but a United Nations agency said the law is still widely ignored. {in}
