Masked Serbian schoolchildren rob teacher for grade book

Police in Serbia have arrested two schoolboys they accuse of having stormed a Belgrade classroom masked and armed with a plastic pistol and making off with their teacher’s grade book.

Police said in a statement on Wednesday they had apprehended two unidentified Grade 7 pupils and seized a replica handgun, a knife, a balaclava cap and pair of sunglasses after the incident on Tuesday during school hours in the Belgrade suburb of Kotez.

School crime and violence have soared in Serbia since the war years of the 1990s when societies across old socialist Yugoslavia frayed under the pressure of gangsterism, corruption and nationalism.

Let's Start Sending Rivers Cuomo Fan Mail For Incubus

Recently, Weezer's Rivers Cuomo paid a visit to the web series Larry King Now where he told  an interesting/creepy anecdote. Apparently he keeps getting fan mail for Incubus front man Brandon Boyd. “I get these elaborate fan packages, only they’re not for me, they’re for the singer of Incubus, Brandon Boyd,” Cuomo told King. “The bizarre thing is it’s happened at two different houses I’ve lived in over the years.”

Rock In Peace - 10 Bands Definitely Breaking Up in 2015

Rock In Peace - 10 Bands Definitely Breaking Up in 2015

2015 has begun, and as Kill Pretty’s resident music know it all/sass machine, I think it’s important that we cleanse ourselves of the negative vibes of 2014 as we prepare for the even worse vibes coming in 2015. We can all admit that last year was mostly terrible. Save for a few personal highlights (a couple of friends got married and I ate the world’s largest hot dog), 2014 was full of terrible news. The police murdered people in the streets, we were tricked into caring about a Seth Rogen film, and an entire airplane disappeared. Worst of all, we were inundated with some truly awful music. If you read my last column, you’ll know that I liked a few songs last year but that's about it.

Hats Off To You, Your Honor By Jon Benito

Hats Off To You, Your Honor By Jon Benito

So unfortunately, between a time span of four months or so, I got picked up by the police for graffiti. The first time I got ACD (charges dropped) in return for six months good behavior. However, the second time I got picked up, I was arrested and held for about sixteen hours until I saw a judge. The ordeal was entertaining to say the least. Outside of the Christian proselytizing with signage telling me to ask Jesus for forgiveness, and the amount of disinformation being proliferated by the police was... Well... Not really surprising. Regardless, I recently had my follow up court date this past Friday, December 19th.

Notice Anything?

Just to set the record straight, we sent Juxtapoz a copy of Issue 2 at the beginning of October 2014. They just released their January 2015 issue (in December?) and what were they thinking?

 

They say imitation is the best flattery but at least do it correctly. I guess they just didn't have Dave Schubert (our cover photographer) to quite kill it the way we did.
