East coast artist Nina Winters dreams in bronze, and at Kalispell Art Casting, one of these dreams is taking shape in a 6-foot-by-8-foot samurai sculpture.
The statue – called “Galactic Samurai – Confrontation of Evil” – is Winters’ “good message” to a world that she believes is a little shaky these days.

Duke and Dutch, a pair of Percheron draft horses weighing nearly a ton each, are perplexed. A stubborn goat named Carlos has crossed in front of them and refuses to move off the road. The massive horses, described as “gentle giants,” don’t quite know what to do.
“Get out of the way, Carlos!” yells Andrew Weaver, who is seated behind the horses in a sleigh with reigns in his hands.

Last week I focused on the Travel Channel’s “No Reservations,” my pick as the best food show on television. This week I’ll highlight some of my other faves, and not so faves. I’ll also offer my thoughts on the reality-television trend that emphasizes strange ingredients, unrealistic deadlines and pretentious judges who seem to get off by looking down their noses at the poor fools who volunteer for the humiliation.

Local band Marshall Catch was in Hawaii to help commemorate the 70th anniversary of the Pearl Harbor attacks during a ceremony on Dec. 7.
We wrote about the band and its attempts to raise money to get to Honolulu and play "The Ballad of the USS Arizona" for the event, and it looks like they were able to make it.

Read We wrote about the band and its attempts to raise money to get to Honolulu and play "The Ballad of the USS Arizona" for the event, and it looks like they were able to make it.
Here's a bit of an update from the band:
The band celebrated the release of their patriotic single “The Ballad of the USS Arizona”, a tribute song composed with the Pearl Harbor attacks in mind, from the perspective of the ship herself, with two performances near the Memorial. They first performed on Sunday, December 4th for Military Day. Their second performance was on the anniversary date, December 7th, just after the official Commemoration Ceremony. Both appearances brought them face to face with a number of the survivors and their families.
"We were honored, humbled, and left speechless at the stories of sacrifices told by the brave soldiers of Pearl Harbor,” reflected Marshall Catch singer, Luke Lautaret. “To play our song for these men and their families has been a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that we will cherish forever. We sincerely hope we were able to bless and honor those who have sacrificed so much for us and our country."

Information is now ubiquitous; niche´ selections on television are endless. If you want to watch Italian soccer, you’ll find it.
