Who is most culpable for the grotesque, murderous terrorist attacks in Westminster this week? Could it be the perpetrator, who is reportedly a man born in the UK and whose vicious, murderous attack was influenced by homicidal Islamist terrorism?
No.
They — like Donald Trump, Jr. - have identified the real culprit. It’s London Mayor Sadiq Khan, who happens also to be Muslim.
An Albany Grand Jury yesterday indicted state Senator Robert Ortt (R-N Tonawanda) and former state Senator George Maziarz on felony election law violations arising out of Maziarz’s 2012 and 2013 campaign finance disclosures. The details of the indictment remain under seal, so the details are unknown, but investigations into the handling of Maziarz’s campaign accounts have been swirling since the time of the defunct Moreland Commission.

An anonymous designer called Mind Romes has created a pretty unique mash up of classic video gaming and classic hip hop. The project, Chronslevania, is a combination of the 1985 Nintendo game Castlevania, and Dr. Dre’s 1999 album, Chronic 2001. It started with a remix of “Still D.R.E.” from 2001. At first it was going to be, maybe, a Star Wars remix, but then a classic video gaming session turned into inspiration.
[PARTY] The city’s new zoning the scheme, known as the Green Code, got its first test last week at a meeting of the city’s Zoning Board of Appeals. The results: a mixed bag. (See here for an analysis.) Still, it shows promise. And the folks behind Our Outer Harbor—a community movement to preserve green space on Buffalo’s vast Outer Harbor—are in a mood to celebrate.
[JAM] If you’re into fancy genre titles, I guess you could call Primate Fiasco “jamtronica”—a cross between a jam band and an electronica group. The four piece group features some interesting instrumentation—banjo, harmonica, accordion, and even a sousaphone, as well as a drums—but they definitely make it work, weaving between jazz, folk, jam, and more. When the band comes to Nietzsche’s on Saturday, March 25, they’ll be joined by like minded local jam band Space Junk.
