The story of Babysitter Wanted revolves around a tormented and tortured young girl whose only concern is the safety of herself and the child she is babysitting. Strange events unfold which lead to a tumultuous climax, leaving the audience hanging by their fingernails.
The film got great recognition at Cannes Film Festival last year, and has also received rave reviews from a number of Horror Film Fan and Review websites. Shot mostly in and around Northern California in the foothills of the Siskiyous and the towns of Yreka, Montague, and Redding, Babysitter Wanted drew a good number of it's crew from Southern Oregon. And many of the crew have been anxiously anticipating the release, which appears to be on the horizon now.
“We worked hard to make a horror film that had a sense of reality and at the same time would be fun for a broader audience”.
- Jonas Barnes (writer)

The City of Ashland has begun to crack down on excessive signage on the sidewalks of the downtown area. Business owners, including Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, have been targeted and many believe that it is unfair and over-reaching for the City of Ashland to attack the businesses that help make this town the tourist attraction that it is.
In this series of videos, the Bear from Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory speaks out about being forced indoors by Dean Walker, Code Compliance Specialist for the City of Ashland. We also talk to the Stone Lion outside of the Black Sheep to get his reactions and Alfredo of Wiley's World of Pasta.

About the Summer Circus
Drive South of Grants Pass, headed towards the beaches, and you'll pass through the tiny town of Selma, Oregon. You'll probably miss the town except for the single swinging caution light at the one intersection between a Ray's Food Market and a Shell Gas Station. Those that are in the know, those of us that crave to be the first to hike and swim the most beautiful parts of Oregon each Spring - we've been known to hang a right at this particular Shell Station, and head 10-15 more miles down the windy, gravely, single-lane road to relax by the Illinois River. Whether it's the beer & drugs or just the casual atmosphere, the Illinois River has been a spot for a number of universal awakenings by the culture of outdoorspeople who make it their weekend destination.
One weekend each Spring, just after the right at the Shell Station,
long before you hit the river's edge, a local property owner opens up
his land for an all-weekend extravaganza of music, outdoor recreation,
and a barter faire to celebrate the oncoming season - The Summer
Circus. Started 4 or 5 years ago, the Summer Circus began with a small
group of musicians and their close friends taking over a stage nestled
in the middle of the Siskiyous for a couple days of music and excess.

It's Out! It's Out! - The New Twinkeez CD!!
Buy "The Twinkeez' Defense" Now!
DJ Eye has been building these tracks with Ramiz Monsef for what seems like years and years now. But the wait is over, after the first official taste of the Twinkeez hit iTunes and the all-consuming public via DJ EYE: INSOMNIAC, they're back with a full-length album that's All Twinkeez!
"The Twinkeez' Defense"!
DJ Eye is the composer, along with A-Typical DJ, on the haunting and truly eclectic old movie film style soundscapes that permeate the tracks on this album. Ramiz "the Manchild" Monsef lends an educated and soulful lyricism to the awesome tunes. Ramiz joined the Twinkeez back in 2003 as they were ending their college days of entertaining PAC-10 students with late-night carnival rides through a musical wonderland, joining forces with other experimental and evolving acts like Various Ardis and the electro-fusion band Sizemix.
At the time, the Twinkeez were a Turntable Duo, happy to oblige the up-&-coming MC at any college party, but hadn't found a vocalist that matched their twisted personas, yet. After an improv flow at what was to be a final hurrah in their college stomping grounds of Ashland, OR - the Twinkeez found the vocal talents and twisted deep approach of Ramiz to be the first that had ever come close to matching the intensity of the Twinkeez live performance.

This underground sensation hasn't lost steam after more than five years (or is it six) in the wild.
"My 2nd favorite after The Big Lebowski," says Travis T. of intelligent hip hoppers Eastern Sunz.
"That is some funny shit," says Henry Weeks, Bartender at Elks Lodge #944.
No matter how you swing it, you gotta watch this motion picture from the brainchild of Mike Furlong. Furlong wrote, starred in, and directed The Partisan . Exhaustingly shot on locations throughout Ashland, OR inlcuding the now defunct Pizza Hut, this production was collaborated with Furlongs associates from I Kappa Foo , a short run college indy show.
Fans of underground dark comedy should enjoy this picture available to view exclusively here . Downloads may be available soon if you show enough love. Just head over the the Contact link there and shoot Sid a line saying - "Yo! I'd love to kick down some money for you to wire to Mike Furlong for this brilliant underground comedy film sensation. My preferred format is ______________, but I will accept any format you send me, because I know you provide a true classic with no DRM restrictions, so I can make all kinds of backup copies and show it off to my college or alumni buddies."
Watch it here .
