Blabbermouth reports: Jon Johnson of the Eastern
Arizona Courier has issued the following report: Safford, Arizona police
were called to the city's garbage truck yard to investigate a white powdery
substance to make sure it was not poisonous. Garbage truck driver Marty
Solberg said he had seen the substance fall out of his truck when he emptied
it at the dump. Solberg was concerned because earlier he had seen the word
"ANTHRAX" written on the side of a dumpster at the entrance to Discovery
Park.
Police secured the garbage truck and called
Graham County bioterrorism coordinator Brian Douglas to the scene
. As
Douglas was collecting the sample, officers were busy locating the source
of the substance. Officers were then informed by the EAC Security that
two empty flour bags were found in the Discovery Park dumpster. EAC Security
also noticed the words "AC/DC" and "IRON MAIDEN" written on the back of
the dumpster.
"We didn't get the connection with 'ANTHRAX'
the band at first," Douglas said. "The other band names were on the back
and not on the same side as the ANTHRAX one was."[see full story for more]-

Vs Media Fluff |
Gigwise reports: Thom Yorke has had a dig
at the media about their endless speculation over the new Radiohead album.
The singer cites a magazine quotation which says new Radiohead tracks 'Videotape'
and 'Down Is The New Up' are lifted from their eagerly anticipated new
long-player.
In reality, Yorke says even the band themselves
don't know what songs will make it to the final cut. "We don't know what
will make it to the record, neither do they, neither do you. It drives
me nuts the way people take it upon themselves to fluff stuff up like this.
I just played a couple of songs on piano that happened to be ones that
the band were working on at the time. And that was quite a while ago now.
Sheesh." [see full story for more]- Click

Drops Mom Suit, Sues Kids |
AP reports: The recording industry is giving
up its lawsuit against Patti Santangelo, a mother of five who became the
best-known defendant in the industry's battle against music piracy. However,
two of her children are still being sued.
The five companies suing Santangelo, of
Wappingers Falls, filed a motion Tuesday in federal court in White Plains
asking Judge Colleen McMahon to dismiss the case. Their lead counsel, Richard
Gabriel, wrote in court papers that the record companies still believe
they could win damages against Santangelo but their preference was to "pursue
defendant's children."[see full story for more]- Click

Drops Stalker Order |
TMZ reports: Former couple Hilary Duff and
Joel Madden have decided to drop their temporary restraining orders against
one of two of their alleged stalkers. TMZ obtained documents filed Monday
in Los Angeles County Superior Court by the star duo's lawyers, which requests
a dismissal of the restraining orders against celebrity photographer David
Joseph Klein.
In October, Duff and Madden filed temporary
restraining orders against Klein and his roommate Maksim Miakovsky, an
18-year-old Russian emigre. The former couple feared for their safety and
requested that a judge order the alleged stalkers to stay at least 100
yards away from Duff, her sister Haylie, Madden and his twin brother Benji.
In November, Miakovsky was arrested and
booked on charges of making criminal threats and stalking Duff. He remains
behind bars.[see full story for more]- Click

| MP3
Jail |
tinfoilmusic reports: In courts in various
countries all over the world, it was generally held that linking to illegal
material wasn't generally illegal. Afterall, the people clicking on the
links were comitting the illegal act, not the person pointing to the material.
It's similar to saying that guns don't kill people, people kill people.
I think it is fitting, though in this case the gun is the link.
mp3s4free.net is having problems in Australia
because it seems some lost dingos have stolen the courts commen sense down
under. The owner of mp3s4free, Stephen Cooper, were guilty of authorising
copyright infringement because they provided a search engine through which
a user could illegally download MP3 files. The high courts in Australia
have backed lower court rulings. [see full story for more]-
