Brothers Gow
The Brothers Gow is a 5 piece band located in beautiful Flagstaff, Arizona. Brothers Gow will make you move your feet, nod your head, and drop your jaw. Long time friends that grew up together, chilling as far back as elementary school, others since the middle school years, and all went to high school years together. In the mix of all that a few bands were formed here & there, some in different cities, with different people- it was all in the air. Then in august 2007, the 5 members joined forces in Flagstaff, Arizona. Bringing together a blender of tracks & musical talents in smorgasbord form, to what would be the foundation of "brothers gow" music. Our back-rounds in music growing up ranged from funk, reggae-rock, jam bands, ambient beats, to even hip-hop culture, like DJing and breakdancing.

TACS (rock band)
TACS was established in 2008 by rapper Lucky Capo and friend Chris Murphy. The aim was to establish an amateur rock group with distinct anti war, anti racism and anti gang culture. The initials TACS stand for The Anti Chav Squad and this reflects the anti gang culture side of the group commonly associated with the stereotype ‘chavs’. A common theme among early songs was anti slavery. The song House of the Free reflects this as it shows everyone as free people living together freely in the house of God. Due to the lead singers (Lucky Capo) strong religious morals, religion has formed a heavy influence upon the songs produced. This does contradict with Chris’s Atheistic views however he has been quoted saying “Just because I don’t believe doesn’t change the fact that many people do and they should be allowed to celebrate there faith through some great music”. TACS are currently in a recruiting stage and will be preparing its first album over the course of the summer 2008.

A. Eicoff & Company, a division of Ogilvy & Mather, is the world’s largest direct response television (DRTV) agency. Based in Chicago, the agency specializes in television advertising that generates immediate, measurable results.

History
Alvin Eicoff founded the agency in 1959 and is widely credited with helping create the direct response television advertising industry. Starting with small, entrepreneurial clients, Alvin helped the agency earn a reputation for creating “selling” commercials. Ogilvy & Mather bought the agency in 1982, a year after Ron Bliwas became the agency’s CEO. Under Ron’s auspices, the agency broadened its client base to include numerous Fortune 500 companies and become one of Chicago’s leading agencies.

Agency Overview
A.Eicoff is a full-service agency offering strategic planning, creative development, media planning/buying and daily tracking of results. Eicoff prides itself on having a strong strategic orientation. Eicoff follows a disciplined process to help their clients define that unique ownable insight that will clearly differentiate them from their competitors. This insight is then built into all the strategies that affect the product/service including creative, media and telemarketing.

Eicoff’s Creative Department creates television creative that incites response and sells, but never at the expense of the brand. Longer-length spots are often created to help generate the response. :120 and :60 spots are the standard for most of Eicoff’s clients. These longer length spots pull drive more response but also often a more qualified response than shorter spots.

Eicoff’s Media Department is responsible for placing more short-form DRTV time in the US than any other agency. The average tenure in Eicoff’s media department is 10 years. 10 years of relationships with station managers and salespeople. 10 years knowledge of what time slots work for each demographic and who watches what. This depth of knowledge and experience is unique to Eicoff and has a direct correlation to client success.

The Iron Warriors continues this tradition of membership to active and retired public safety professionals, who own and ride V-twin motorcycles made by American-owned companies.

The Iron Warriors Motorcycle Club is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing assistance and support to our communities, departments, families and members. The IWMC membership contributes much of its free time toward the efforts of raising money to support the families of Fallen Police Officers and/or Firefighters. The IWMC additionally supports our Veterans of the military, regardless the branch they served, as they have sacrificed much, some all, for us all to have our cherished FREEDOMS. The IWMC generosity is not limited to Law Enforcement, Firefighters or Veterans. Individual chapters will routinely seek out those struggles within their community, to show support and express their gratitude for the support given to them by our communities.

In 1991, when the WPMC was just three chapters in California and one in Connecticut, the San Jose chapter divided and was falling apart due to infighting and divisiveness on the part of a few individuals. A significant cause of the dissention was due to some members wanting to grow, while others feared growth and possibly losing total control of the club. At a time when some were trying to mend the rifts and develop club bylaws which would satisfy the needs of the club as a whole, two San Jose members, who labeled themselves “R & R Enterprises”, secretively filed a trademark application for the name and logo of the WPMC. This was done without the knowledge or approval of any chapter board in existence at the time. After some time had passed and the WPMC had grown, the actions of R&R Enterprises were finally recognized and the real threat it was. Legal action was filed on behalf of the WPMC with the Trademark Commission to try to prevent R&R from gaining trademark rights. The existing WPMC chapters and regional boards subsequently terminated the San Jose chapter’s charter and the chapter essentially ceased to exist.

The club won a court victory in California, preventing R&R Enterprises from incorporating as the WPMC, which they had also attempted illegally. The favorable California Superior Court decision, ruling R&R Enterprises incorporation as illegal, was forwarded to the U.S. Trademark Commission. The Trademark Commission after a lengthy delay, elected to award the trademark to R&R based on the “late” filing of the original complaint.

The Regional Boards upon learning the decision approached the membership with several options. One was to buy the trademark rights from R&R, this option was rejected after R&R disclosed they didn’t want to sell the trademark and in fact wanted to have complete and sole control of the club. Another option was to continue utilizing the Wild Pigs logo and disregard R&R all together, challenging them in court on a case by case bases. This was rejected due to potential court costs to the chapters and regions. The last option was to rename the club which involved several names and logos presented to the membership for a vote. This process took several months and unfortunately some members wanted to follow the name they had created, such as the “Renegade Pigs” in the east, others became frustrated with the process and the time it took, moving onto other clubs, but many stuck it out and the Iron Warriors name and logo was voted on and is now worn by 29 chapters in 4 Regions, with approximately 600+ members nationwide.

When the Iron Warriors Motorcycle Club began, the Idaho Chapter of the Western region submitted the logo center patch design that was eventually selected by a vote of the national membership to represent the Iron Warriors Motorcycle Club. The colors were designed to represent the history and heritage of the Iron Warriors Motorcycle Club, and to represent the spirit and heart of the membership.

The logo symbol consists of a knight’s helmet and winged breastplate behind a shield with crossed Scottish Claymore swords. On the shield is the Iron Warriors coat of arms, consisting of a wild boar’s head emerging from the American flag. This coat of arms reflects the history of our original association with the Wild Pigs Motorcycle Club, and our common ancestry with those other public safety motorcycle clubs that emerged from the Wild Pigs. The emblems of knighthood and the colors in the logo symbolize honor, valor, and the warrior spirit.

The lettering on our upper and lower rockers is red and white. The red symbolizes the blood of warriors, current and passed, shed in public safety service. The white symbolizes the purity and sacred pledge of each member’s common oath to serve others, even at one’s own peril. Within the shield there is a red and blue cross. These colors represent the thin red and blue lines of fire and police holding firm against all threats. The cross represents our common Judea-Christian Heritage.

Together these colors and symbols represent those few public safety members found worthy, and chosen to be known as Iron Warriors.

Additional information is located in our chapter’s membership package, available to interested, qualified public safety professionals.

Dick Van Dyke Death
Dick suffered a massive stroke on July 21, 2008 at home in Pheonix. Attempts to save him were attempted but to no avail

Mr. Monk Buys A House
In the first episode of the seventh season of the popular cable dramedy "Monk", Monk investigates a murder at a house that is for sale and winds up becoming involved with a crooked contracter (Guest Star Brad Garrett of "'Til Death" & "Everybody Loves Raymond". The episode starts off with Monk arriving excactly on time for his first session with his new therapist. As is explained, Dr. Kroger passed away between the events of the last episode and this episode. It takes Monk a while to warm up to his ne shrink (Hector Elizondo of "Kane"), but after a while the two begin to form a unique relationship on their own. Following his first session with Dr, Neven Bell, Natalie and Monk are called away to a murder scene at a house that is for sale. The victim, also the owner, is being taken to the morgue as Monk arrives. Monk, while investigating, notices how nice the structure of the house is and that the wallpaper matches up perfectly when you go from one piece to another. He is also taken with the fire place and the fact that it isn't soot laiden. When Monk gets home that afternoon to hear the loud music of his new upstairs neighbor, Monk heads up there to ask his neighbor to stop. Naturally, he doesn't. Monk, in his next session, is told by Dr. Bell that if the music is bothering him so, he should buy the murder victim's house. Monk does. The next day, he is in his new house, unpacking boxes of information and writing of Trudy's, he is informed by Natalie that there are a few repairs that need to be made so she takes the liberty of hiring a handyman (Brad Garret). The handyman comes in and is determined to rip up the foundation of the house. Monk isn't very pleased with this but he allows it. Monk decides that it would be best to get out of the house, which is turning into a money pit, while he still can. He lets the repairman do his job afterwhich Monk will sell the house and head back to his old apartment which hasn't been rented out yet. At an open house for Monk's home, the now ax-wielding handyman bursts into the house and takes everyone hostage. Monk, at this point, puts everything together. The handyman killed the girl who was in the process of selling the house and he isn't really a handyman. He came to work for Monk to destroy any evidence that might convict him. Fortunatley, his fingerprints are matched with the ones on the butcher's knife used to kill the other woman. The show ends with Monk recounting his events to Dr. Bell -- over the phone -- at one A.M.

Australia First Party
A LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS OF THE NATIONAL COUNCIL OF THE AUSTRALIA FIRST PARTY

WHY WE CONTINUE THE FIGHT

Graeme Campbell and others paid a big price to establish the "Australia First Party", and the "Eight Core Policies" are an important expression of the aspirations and values of the Australian people and our culture.

We believe "Australia First" is needed to keep current issues in the Media, and to provide information to educate the people. Our Party is needed to give an alternative for those who care about the future and are concerned about giving into the Globalists who are intent on destroying our Australian culture and way of life.

We do not need to be a registered political party to be effective. In fact, we do not need to be in Parliament to have an influence. Members acting within their own communities can make an enormous contribution to the knowledge and motivation of people on important issues. Organisations are still needed to inform and unite genuine Australians. This will be particularly important for people to be able to communicate their concerns when the push for a republic is re-ignited and with so many other issues that worry us such as -

Water - Its shortage and availability to grow clean and green Australian food, and the future cost of our water and food to us as consumers. Fluoridation of our water - There are risks to our medium and long-term health. G.M.O.'s - Genetically modified organisms. Health - Codex and availability of vitamins. Foreign doctors' standards - Access to Hospital beds. Immigration - 457 Visas - Sharia Law - Housing affordability. Free Trade Agreements - Unlimited business immigration - Fire Blight - the list goes on…

Our recent and ongoing battle with the terminated members of "Australia First" is an attempt by them to undermine our credibility by sending out literature pretending to represent our Party. They have organised their own membership forms and kept the money and donations, which have been misdirected away from us under false pretences. This unfortunately has resulted in the depletion of our financial base, which has temporarily affected services to you, our members, but we continue to be active on a local level.

This infiltration of our Party was slow and methodical and while we were cautious, after having been alerted to their background, we thought we had all bases covered. We didn't count on them totally ignoring all the rules and the Constitution of our Party, and bulldozing members with lies, false membership forms, and the misappropriation of membership money and donations.

It has been very disturbing to receive documents sent to our genuine members of Australia First by people who have had their memberships cancelled by the National Council - under the false pretence that they represent our Party. Using the name "Australia First" shows the level of deceit they have used to discredit the genuine Australia First Party. When we refused to cooperate with their push to register with the A.E.C. using "five dollar feral members" and to hand over the database, members of the National Council were threatened.

By using and discrediting our name, they attempt to make it difficult for us to be affective and retain credibility.

Interestingly their methods are similar to those used by the famous "Abbott and Costello's father-in-law" - "Campaign for Honest Politicians". It is probably being directed and financed from the same high places. We may never establish where the initiative is coming from, as these people do not have the ability, support, or money, to have orchestrated this on their own. They now have two separate groups. Some are committed Republicans and some are passionate about the historical significance of the name "Australia First". It seems this commitment to control the name was the original aim of this political group.

Not being great in number, it has been said that "they could have a full meeting in a telephone box". These people prefer to attack on the colour of an immigrant's skin rather than the Government policy that allows the excessive and inappropriate immigration opposed by "Australia First" policy. The important issue of preserving our Constitution, our unique culture, and the support and protection of our families, businesses and farmers is ignored. Race-based issues dominate their agenda and they continue to run inflammatory campaigns that are at odds with the law. Interestingly they appear to be a protected species and have not been prosecuted.

AUSTRALIA FIRST (COUNCIL PARTY) N.S.W. Despite the fact that we objected to the N.S.W. Electoral Commission, and also the fact our name "Australia First Party" was registered with ASIC, it became obvious that these two Statutory Government Bodies offer no security to genuine political parties. These people were able to register "Australia First (Council Party) NSW", deceiving our members in NSW by giving the impression that they were operating under the authority of the National Council. In fact, their cunning, and the cooperation of the NSW Electoral Commission, who even helped by backdating their approval - saw them override the Australia First Party Constitution and rules after we discovered and objected to their plan to register in N.S.W. without the authority of the National Council.

It is our understanding that they are currently attempting to deceive enough people to join their pseudo "Australia First Party" to enable them to register the party name Federally with the Australian Electoral Commission.

If we allow schemers like these to destroy the name of "Australia First" and the credibility we have all helped to develop, their warped ideology will go down in Australian history as a representation of our Party. We are concerned that we have wasted a lot of valuable time and resources to establish what was happening behind the scenes and have not been able to continue to build on the credible work that we have all done in the past.

It is not the Australian way to sit back and allow people like this to destroy our Party that has been built to support and protect our unique culture and save Australia from Globalism and a Multicultural takeover.

PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THE ONLY VALID ADDRESS FOR THE PARTY IS P.O. BOX 6358, SHEPPARTON. 3632

THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF THE RUBBISH WRITTEN BY THE PSEUDO PARTY BASED IN SYDNEY "Of late, Australian nationalists have reinvigorated the Australia First Party. This party grows stronger, ideologically, politically and organizationally.  After failed attempts by reactionary elements to deflect the party towards pseudo mainstream (sic) politics and the continuing crisis of the patriotic forces generally, this party advances a programme, a strategy and viable tactics for success."

THE QUESTION THAT WE ASK IS "WHO CONTINUES TO FINANCE THESE PEOPLE?"
