Tim Granlund rocks a military theme and goes by the nickname of "Six String General" in his quest to reach September's Air Guitar World Championships in Finland, the Washington Post reports. The 23-year-old Granlund faces his first challenge this Wednesday in the D.C. round of the U.S. Air Guitar Championships (if you're so inclined, you can buy tickets here). He'll have 60 seconds to win over the judges and move on to the next round of competition. He gives the Post insight into his air guitar strategy and says he's working on his signature move, the "hump jump." Granlund also talks shop, describing his air guitar as "a vintage thing ... it's got one of those triangular-looking deals going on. It's pink, totally wild and crazy."

Goode, Jr. in the Charlottesville alt-weekly has led to widespread coverage and condemnation, including commentary by the Council on American-Islamic Relations and The New York Times.

Fired Editor Launches Rival Weeklynew

"Finally, a newspaper war," writes Carlos Santos in the Richmond Times-Dispatch. "Journalistic headbutting. A scramble for ads. Recruiting skirmishes. It's a grudge match to boot. Start the presses. Since earlier this month, two hip, breezy, irreverent, free weekly alternative newspapers have been locked in a bitter battle for advertising dollars and readers in a small market likely to sustain only one." In this corner, AAN-member C*Ville Weekly, and in the opposite corner, The Hook, launched by C*Ville's co-founder and former editor, Hawes Spencer.
