Low Impact Terrorism
In recent weeks The Axis of Stevil has noticed an increase in the level of terrorist chatter. Several creditable threats in the form of magazine order cards have been intercepted that show a swelling of entry-level terrorist support. Be aware of low impact terrorist organizations that seek to draw upon the sympathies of evil and unmotivated men. The following press release was found in a raid of a terrorist compound outside of Jamestown, MA.
Have you ever felt like the world is too organized? Too mapped out? Too many rules and too little defiance? Where are the unsung heroes that put the real in reality?

Man On The Inside
The Axis of Stevil has always been aware of the darkness that works in the heart of evil men. During the Stevilzation Conference of 1964, an event held in secrecy due to cold war pressures, the sane world became aware of an evil growing in the universe. The meeting, chaired by Grand Steve: Steve Lock, was called to address the growing concerns over the post war military industrial complex taking root in southwestern United States and UK.
During the second day of talks, a young, disheveled looking man, Antonio Estevez, burst into the chambers and demanded the floor. Committed to the spirit of free and open discourse, Minor Poobah ‘Steel’ Steve Stanoviski yielded the floor.

Don't Be A Dummy
Traffic on the thoroughfares and byways surrounding major cities is often congested and subject to slow-downs. The one salvation to this chaos is the H.O.V. lanes. These high-occupancy lanes allow society to once again elevate families and sociable people above the single loners of the world. Well, if you are tired of being stuck behind the "newest shipments of summer savings", "wide right turns” or "I brake for Jesus", The Axis of Stevil suggests you get out into the fast lane, without fear, with Baby E.D.S. by your side.
From the same people that brought you the Furby, The new Emotronic Decoy System, or E.D.S., is disguised as an infant child.

Tune of the Week
Based in Greenville, North Carolina, Katharsis’s highly melodic and entertaining rock broke through the music scene in 2005. The band was originally formed in 2000 by Garret Bissonnette, who had moved to Greenville for education, and Patrick Spohr. Bissonnette and Spohr were later joined by drummer Cory Granger, and bassist Eric Pyburn. They began a non-stop gigging schedule on the local rock circuit.While appearing in the “Battle of The Bands” August 2005 Katharsis found front man Ean Hirst. Just after three months of writing, the band’s self-released single “Climb The World” hit the streets. The band’s popularity continues to grow, owing to support slots with several leading musicians. The band developed a reputation for being respectable with a very professional manner while producing a steady flow of new material.
