http://www.cnn.com/2009/CRIME/04/11/califo...rest/index.html (CNN) -- Police have arrested a Sunday-school teacher in the killing of California 8-year-old Sandra Cantu, authorities said early Saturday. Melissa Huckaby, seen in a mugshot released by police, was arrested in the killing of 8-year-old Sandra Cantu. Melissa Huckaby was arrested on charges of kidnapping and murder, according to Tracy, California, police Sgt. Tony Sheneman. Police would not reveal what led to Huckaby's arrest, but said it followed questioning. They did not offer a possible motive. Huckaby lived in the same mobile home park as Sandra's family, and Sandra was friends with Huckaby's daughter, Sheneman said. Sandra's body was found Monday, stuffed into a suitcase in a dairy-farm pond. The girl, from Tracy, had been missing since March 27. The suitcase that held Sandra's body belonged to Huckaby, Sheneman said. Police have had contact with Huckaby before, but she does not have a record of violence, Sheneman said, without offering further details. An autopsy was conducted on Sandra's body on Tuesday. Autopsy results are not expected for four to six weeks, CNN affiliate KRON-TV reported earlier in the week, citing the coroner's office. Police have conducted hundreds of interviews in the case. On Tuesday, authorities searched a Baptist church near the mobile home park where Sandra lived. The church's pastor, Lane Lawless, and his wife, Connie, spoke to KRON as they drove by the church Tuesday. Lawless said police had seized computers, phones and other items from his family's trailer, located in the same park as Sandra's family. He said his great-granddaughter regularly played with Sandra. "We've been in the park for 13 years, and we've known her and her sister since before they were born," Connie Lawless told KRON. "So they're like children to us; they're like our children." The day Sandra was last reported seen, she returned home from school, kissed her mother and left to play with a friend who lives nearby. A short time later, wearing a pink Hello Kitty T-shirt and black leggings, she left to go to another friend's home, according to a family spokeswoman. Police said the girl's clothing helped them identify her body.

http://www.myspace.com/predatorheavymetal These guys just sent me an invite on MySpace; not my personal cup of tea, but I thought some folks here might enjoy them.

I personally went with: Winger - S/T Winger - In the Heart of the Young Warrant - Dog Eat Dog (Pull is my favorite Winger release, but Dog Eat Dog is just a fucking MONSTER, and I could not NOT pick it! ) Warrant - Live Warrant - Born Again

2 bands that for various reasons didn't/don't get a lot of respect for the most part....

Yep, getting the same message this morning....

My picks went like so... Gotthard - S/t (1992) Gotthard - Dial Hard Gotthard - G PC69 - Electrified Gotthard - Open Jaded Heart - The Journey Will Never End Jaded Heart - Trust <------ Having to pick between this one and PC69's Thunderdome was BRUTAL Gotthard - Lipservice (although JH's Helluvatime kicked ass too) Gotthard - Domino Effect Huh.... never realized I liked Gotthard quite this much!

Three of the most popular bands on HH duking it out amongst themselves; which are your faves? *I tried to keep the match-ups as year specific as possible, but I took some liberties in places particularly due to PC69 having a few more releases than the others.

Thanks Dan!

"Lesser of Two Evils".... easy. One of my favorites from them period; not just from this disc.

Aside from the piss poor production making the whole thing sound "cloudy", it's not bad.

Reach for the sky is awesome!!! BACKED. YA THINK? Great album for sure I agree as well; RFTS is GREAT. I came close to pitting it against Motley's Girls, Girls, Girls, but then I figured everyone would be like "Where's Dancing Undercover?". I wish you could put more than 6 questions per poll.... Oh Daaa-aaannn....

I surprised myself on this one. I figured it would be a split between the two bands, as I love 'em both, but when I started comparing the albums, I wound up taking the Crue across the board, except for taking Out of the Cellar over SATD. With that said, Theatre v. Invasion and Feelgood v. Detonator nearly came to coin flips.

Crue v. Ratt.... let the battle commence!

Wanted to do a challenge with Queensryche, and Helloween were the first competitors I thought of...

http://semolorock.blogspot.com/2009/03/joe...ickenfoots.html Joe Satriani Reveals Chickenfoot's Album Title New details about the highly awaited new super group Chickenfoot arrives again and this time it came from the band's guitarist, the one and only Joe Satriani. Announcing the news on his official website, that the rock act's new record will be a self titled album and despite hasn't reveal an exact release date yet, Joe stated that Chickenfoot's debut LP will be outed in about a month or two. As for the first single, reports claim that there are discussion on whether it will be "Oh Yeah!" or "Bitten by Wolf". Moreover, just as Sammy Hagar previously said Joe confirmed to the fans that the idea to make the band arrives about a year ago in late February when they got together in Vegas and did a jam session in front of many fans. The guitar virtuoso explained that starting from that day, he, Sammy, Chad and Michael finally decided that they should just go for it and he sure is glad that it happened. Not only that, on his site Joe also wrote that in support of his new band's upcoming record they will do some shows, starting with doing a few CD release party gigs sometime in May as starter. Beside that, the guitar master also confirmed that the band will also do some tour in Europe to embark on some festivals before flying back to U.S. for some headlining tour in the summer. Commenting his excitement about his new band and their upcoming projects, Joe wrote on his site, "I'm so excited about bringing our new band and music to the stage. The energy this unit puts out is incredible, absolutely amazing. Chickenfoot Rocks! " Meanwhile, aside from sharing the stories about Chickenfoot, Joe also announced to his devotees that this year he will be releasing a new DVD, which is titled "Live in Paris", taken from his recent world tour in the city in support of the guitar virtuoso's latest outing "Professor Satchifunkilus and the Musterion of Rock" (dropped in 2008). More inside scope on Chickenfoot can be check out on Guitar World magazine's June issue, which will be released on April 7.
