While Dave Mathews Band cancels two concert dates, Israeli music fans may be comforted by expected arrival of folk legend for May 27 concert in Tel Aviv
The summer of 2010 is gearing up to be a memorable one in terms of major artist performances. After confirmations from thePixies, Elton John, Rod Steward and metal band Metallica, it appears folk legend Bob Dylan will also be arriving to the Holy land for a show on May 27 in the Yarkon park in Tel Aviv.
However, fans of the Dave Mathews Band, which announced its expected arrival to Israellast month for two intimate shows, will unfortunately be disappointed as the group canceled their dates over apparent logistic difficulties.
The Pillbox company issued a statement which noted that the band members will not be able to accommodate a show in Israel in their current tour and promised to notify of any future changes.
Israeli producers have been trying to secure a Dylan performance in the Holy Land for some years now and the man behind the current initiative is veteran producer Shuki Weiss.
However, the public relations firm representing Weiss refused to comment on the report.
FROM Baltimore Sun/ POp Science DNA has long been used to solve crimes and even exonerate the innocent. Soon, it could be used to pinpoint poo. Apparently, video camera surveillance was way too 20th-century for the good people of Scarlett Place Condominiums in Baltimore, who have proposed DNA tests to identify the originators of dog poop left on the premises.
Someone has not been doing his or her civic, um, duty and picking up Fido's waste, leaving messes all over the ritzy condo grounds, according to the Baltimore Sun.
Members of the condo board want to find out who's responsible, so they're turning to the same technology used to connect suspects to crime scenes and to prove paternity.
Under the proposal, every dog who lives at the condo and all visiting dogs would get a cheek swab so their DNA could be tested. Condo residents who own dogs would have to fork over $50 to cover the costs of sending poo samples to a lab. If wayward doggie doo matches a specific dog, the culprit's owner would face a $500 fine.
Alex Jones is talking about how the movie Machete is trying to provoke a race war down south, he assumes that they are trying to provoke the "immigrants" into La Raza (takeover of the US), when the reality is they are trying to provoke people to fear this, and trying to galvanize the opponents of "illegal immigration.
