The Walters: Collections: Renaissance & Baroque Art:
"In this striking depiction of Judith, the Old Testament heroine who beheaded the Assyrian general Holofernes, Bigot has heightened the drama by using a candle as the single powerful light source and by contrasting the horrifying face of Holofernes with the determined, serene countenance of Judith."

AlterNet: The Rise of a Satanic Right?:
"One of the milder portraits of the 'Satanic Right' is in the Image Comics series, Sword of Dracula, which concerns a government agency that hunts vampires. The current issue (#5) includes a brief scene with a courageous swift boat captain helping to track Dracula himself in Vietnam, circa 1968. The soldier is only identified as a lieutenant who once chased on foot a Viet Cong fighter who had fired on his boat with a rocket launcher, but series creator Jason Henderson acknowledges the character's identity."

Disney's California Adventure -- Stanley Kubrick's Muppet*Vision 3D (Disney Lies):
"In this film, guests 'visit' Muppet Labs, just in time to be with Kermit the Frog when he learns that Fozzie Bear has gone completely bonkers and sent a swarm of radio-controlled banana cream pies to attack Russia because he believes that some of the former Soviet Union's remaining communists are plotting to pollute the 'precious bodily fluids' of good American muppets. Kermit meets with a big, friendly Russian (played by Sweetums) to warn him about the problem, and learns that if even a single pie hits Russia, it will trigger an 'April Fool's Day' device that will bombard the U.S. with joy buzzers, whoopee cushions, and those fake peanut cans that when you open them a snake jumps out."

Oregon man sentenced for extorting Seuss' widow - The Register-Guard, Eugene, Oregon, USA:
"PORTLAND - A man convicted of extortion threats against the widow of Dr. Seuss has been ordered to serve three years on probation and undergo anger management counseling.

"Charles Steen, 33, of Portland, had sent e-mails to Audrey Geisel in San Diego demanding ``$2.5 million after taxes'' or ``I'll do something you'll regret,'' police said.

"If Geisel refused, Steen said he would ``go public'' with a painting depicting Dr. Seuss characters engaged in sexual acts, and he sent a digital copy to Geisel's attorneys to prove the painting existed.""
