Revisions made by Capitol Hill staffers became so frequent and disruptive earlier this year that Wikipedia temporarily blocked access to the site from some congressional Internet addresses. The pranks included bumping up the age of the Senate's oldest member, West Virginia's Robert Byrd, from 88 to 180, and giving crude names to other lawmakers. The link to [Morton Brilliant] was discovered by [Mark Taylor]'s campaign, which immediately accused the [Cathy Cox] camp of engaging in "gutter politics" and demanded Brilliant's resignation. Some 1,000 volunteer monitors scan changes to Wikipedia's entries to keep them free of obvious partisan editing, factual errors and profanity, said [Wikipedia] founder Jimmy Wales.

Jan McDonald is well known for playing trumpet in various ensembles around Northern New Mexico, but he has also taught music for nearly 50 years. The vitality of his educational impulses was evident during a recent discussion about Satchmo Shines On, his upcoming tribute to Louis Armstrong. "I'd like to get funding to do this as a school program because the kids I teach privately don't even know who Stephen Foster was, much less Satchmo or his mentor, 'King' Oliver." McDonald is the leader of a sextet offering Satchmo Shines On, a lateafternoon concert on Sunday, Jan. 23. It is the first of three performances in The Dream Series, organized by local jazz promoter Victoria Rogers. Louis "Satchmo" Armstrong, who died in 1971, has been a hero of McDonald's since he first experienced his pla...

ATLANTA - By noon, all the candidates will have qualified for the July primary, and over the next three months they should pay heed to one universal piece of campaign wisdom: attacking an opponent's family is risky. Although news reports of candidates' family members may expose allegations of drinking too much, using drugs, or other mischief, a campaign that tries to score political points with such matters is playing with fire, according to experts and a handful of voters.

JM: [Laughs] The sophomore jinx? And my nickname is Jinx! Oh, the pressure was intense. The expectations I put on myself were enormous. What Black Men Think was my first feature length doculogue. Any artist knows with their first work, it's like you're pouring a lifetime of thoughts, creativity, energy, and your soul onto a canvas, or into a record or film. So, after you leave it all on the table with your initial effort, where do you go? Where you go is back to "our" story, and while they may differ, there are intriguing aspects about dynamics in the black community today. I think the greatest advantage the modern era documentarians have is that audiences have grown accustomed to the format, embracing the non-sterile imperfections of independent expression. Just surf YouTube and you'll...

I DON'T HAVE TO TELL YOU a lot about the amusing pilot episode of "American Body Shop," really. You can just see it free before the premiere on iTunes or xBox, apparently. But if you prefer your TV the old-fashioned wayon the set in your living room when it's actually scheduledyou can catch the new half-hour comedy at 10:30 p.m. Sunday on Comedy Central. Amusing" for guys more than gals, I suspect. Auto mechanics and body-shop employees will be right at home with this one, as it follows the greasy "dented world" of car repair and body work in a shop on the outskirts of Phoenix.
