White Buffalo
A white buffalo or white bison is an American bison possessing white fur, and is considered sacred or spiritually significant in several Native American religions; therefore, such buffalo are often visited for prayer and other religious rituals. The coats of buffalo are almost always brown and their skin a dark brown or black; however, white buffalo can result from one of several physical conditions: * They may be albinos, in which case they will remain unpigmented throughout their lives, and may also have hearing and vision problems. * They may be leucistic, with white fur but blue eyes, instead of the pink seen in albinos. * They may have a rare genetic condition which causes a buffalo to be born white, but to become brown within a year or two as it matures. * They may be beefalo, a bison–cattle crossbreed, and thus have inherited the white coloration from their cattle ancestry. White buffalo are extremely rare; the National Bison Association has estimated that they only o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Pile Of Skulls
''Pile of Skulls'' is the seventh studio album by Running Wild, released in 1992. It is their last album with guitarist Axel Morgan. The song "Jennings' Revenge" tells about the exploits of pirate Henry Jennings. The lyrics of "Treasure Island" are based on the book of the same title by 19th century author Robert Louis Stevenson. Critical reception ''Pile of Skulls'' was met with mostly positive reviews from critics. Steve Huey of All Music Guide called it one of Running Wild's strongest efforts. While calling it too ambitious, he thought ''Pile of Skulls'' combined the group's trademark pirate subject matter with a unifying concept about corruption and abuse of power throughout history. In a 2013 interview, Rolf Kasparek spoke about the song "Bloody Island" from the 2013 album ''Resilient'' and explained that the demo version of the song would've been a great fit on the album.

White Buffalo Gazette
The ''White Buffalo Gazette'' (''WBG'') is a newsletter/zine that covered the "Obscuro Comix & Art." The ''WBG'' took the place of Steve Willis' ''City Limits Gazette'' (1991–1993) when that publication was retired. ''WBG'' was originally inspired by Bruce Chrislip's zine of the same name, as well as Clay Geerdes' ''Comix World'' newsletter. Unlike ''City Limits Gazette'' or ''Comix World'', which were primarily networking and review publications, ''WBG'' was chiefly illustrative in nature. Publication history ''WBG'' was originally published by Butler, Pennsylvania, artist Maximum Traffic, but over the years was issued on an irregular basis by others, including Edward Bolman and Cat Noel (from November 1996 through December 1998), Jeff Zenick, Delaine Derry, and Geoff Hamerlinck.

2000–2001
The dash is a punctuation mark consisting of a long horizontal line. It is similar in appearance to the hyphen but is longer and sometimes higher from the baseline. The most common versions are the endash , generally longer than the hyphen but shorter than the minus sign; the emdash , longer than either the en dash or the minus sign; and the horizontalbar , whose length varies across typefaces but tends to be between those of the en and em dashes. History In the early 1600s, in Okes-printed plays of William Shakespeare, dashes are attested that indicate a thinking pause, interruption, mid-speech realization, or change of subject. The dashes are variously longer (as in King Lear reprinted 1619) or composed of hyphens (as in Othello printed 1622); moreover, the dashes are often, but not always, prefixed by a comma, colon, or semicolon. In 1733, in Jonathan Swift's ''On Poetry'', the terms ''break'' and ''dash'' are attested for and marks: Blot out, correct, ...

Tooth Fang & Claw
''Tooth, Fang & Claw'' is the sixth studio album by the Amboy Dukes, credited as "Ted Nugent's Amboy Dukes". The band's second release on DiscReet Records, it was the final album released under the Amboy Dukes name before Ted Nugent launched his solo career the following year. Composition ''AllMusic'' said that ''Tooth, Fang & Claw'' demonstrates "Nugent's further emerging hard rock sound", as well as an intentional shifting away from the blues sound that the Amboy Dukes had displayed on their Polydor recordings and the psychedelia of the band's Mainstream albums; the band does not experiment with their sound on ''Tooth, Fang & Claw'' as they had on their previous albums. Reception Following this album's release, Ted Nugent moved forward to national and worldwide success. In a retrospective review, ''AllMusic'' said that the Amboy Dukes' releases on DiscReet Records "document the forging of a sound and identity", establishing Ted Nugent as "a true rock icon."
