Re: “[Updated x 2: Another 'Moral Monday' next week: AP] Progressives promising Monday protests while General Assembly's in session”
Be there March 6, 4pm. You owe it to yourself, your family, your children and society if you desire to live in a society in North Carolina and maintain a mere minimum of freedoms from government intrusion and exclusion in your life. Don"t fool yourself that you will be taken care of with the various social systems in place. They are vanishing daily in our State. I will be there, ready to STAND TALL.. We should all be fortunate William Barber has 20/20 vision in these matters. Thank you, Dr. Barber...

Martinez looks to be a great addition. Wonder how much Rutkiewicz will offer?
Re: “UNC-CH senior arrested at the General Assembly: "I cannot in good conscience stand idly by"”
Wow, she speaks well. I hope someone will tell her to NOT accept the prosecutors "deal" in exchange for a milder sentence. It's a gamble, but Zaina sounds like she's willing to go all the way with this. When I was arrested during Occupy Chapel Hill I refused to accept the deal. The judge listened to my plea and called my resistance to excessive power an action of civil disobedience. No sentence, no court charges. It does depend on the judge, but I felt more empowered speaking the truth instead of allowing my half-wit lawyer to finagle a deal for me. Best of luck to Zaina too.
Re: “UNC-CH senior arrested at the General Assembly: "I cannot in good conscience stand idly by"”
I admire Zaina for speaking out so passionately for public education. I daresay most of our legislators owe their success to the public education system. Their boilerplate, ALEC driven legislation is indicative a selfish, racially biased agenda which clearly wants to close opportunities these same legislators have enjoyed. shame on them.

Re: “Tess Mangum Ocaña, former ArtsCenter booking agent, lands job with new downtown Durham concert series”
She does a great a job!
Re: “DVD+Digital: Cold feet, Lizzy Caplan and Save the Date”
Yes, I think she's the real deal. She has those big expressive eyes that seem to be critical for film actors and movie stardom. I wonder if you could map the DNA for big movie star eyes.
Re: “Caliente Carolina RailHawks storm the Fort Lauderdale Strikers for 3-1 win”
Where can we find photos of the match?
Re: “Caliente Carolina RailHawks storm the Fort Lauderdale Strikers for 3-1 win”
Feel sorry for Fort Lauderdale Strikers, though it’s still a great match hope they can make up on their next figth with RailHawks. I just notice while watching their replay that there are repetitive errors that can be avoided if they only learn the 7 Secrets To Soccer Excellence (http://e1fit.com/recommendsSoccerWebinar/). If you want to be competitive you need to learn the 7 key mental, physical and nutritional strategies that you can use immediately and over time to catapult your performance.
Re: “DVD+Digital: Cold feet, Lizzy Caplan and Save the Date”
"Caplan provides a depth of feeling that isn't always there," is what I've always noticed about her. I'm looking forward to seeing her playing lead or at least a strong supporting role in a big-budget drama. She's certainly a "future" star, but if only the future could come quicker. This seems like a throwaway role though.
Re: “Nesting RailHawks: Carolina prevails 2-1 over FC Edmonton in NASL home opener”
A couple of passes and corner kicks, plus a supposed uncalled foul, without shots on target doesn't really equal early offensive aggression.
Re: “Nesting RailHawks: Carolina prevails 2-1 over FC Edmonton in NASL home opener”
"Edmonton sought to strike first in the 16th minute when forward Daniel Fordyce unleashed two shots, the first caroming off the woodwork."
I guess this might be true if you ignore the first few minutes of the game when Carolina had possession and a series of corners, and what looked to be a handball in the box by Edmonton...so, not accurate reporting at all?
Re: “Neu Romance ends its 10-year run in Raleigh this weekend”
Still wearing my Neu Romance t-shirt, Chico. See you around.
Re: “Durham's new free outdoor summer concert series announces lineup”
It’s a pleasant way to spend the evening – a meaty snack, some friends, a few cocktails, a gorgeous Colorado night and some jams. http://bit.ly/10Lb9Yc
Re: “Yum, Durham is the tastiest, says Southern Living”
Hi Lisa, Go to Monuts. The bagels are awesome. I've only had a breakfast sandwich on them...too many breakfast sandwiches.
