	MySpace.com - The Offs - San Francisco, California - Punk / Ska - www.myspace.com/theoffssf
		The Offs were unique among the first wave of West Coast punk bands in maintaining a home base on both coasts.
		In SF, their manager discovered the Deaf Club as a live venue, and the Offs released records on the labels CD Presents and 415 Records.
		The Offs' singer, Don Vinil, was one of the first openly gay people in the West Coast punk scene.

	Music: Kiss Offs
		The Kiss Offs' ever-growing fetish for homemade stage pyrotechnics is the most visible evidence of the slightly sinister force that winks and taunts just beneath the band's goof-pop veneer.
		As if to prove their invincibility once and for all, the Kiss Offs decided to pack an old amplifier with gunpowder and blow it up on the final night of the Bates Motel's existence.
		The Kiss Offs concluded their three- or four-song set when Higdon, now bleeding profusely from a nasty Plexiglass cut, smashed a mirror with the burned-out amp.

	CS-Nation - strategy - advanced - stand offs - the future of Counter-Strike - csnation.net
		Instead of sheriffs, outlaws, deputies and the odd bounty hunter of old 'Westerns'—the stand offs in CS are strictly between Terrorists and Counter-Terrorists.
		Like it or not, 'stand offs' of some sort are a commonplace in CS games—so you have to know how to deal with them effectively.
		Well, it is basically a situation where members of CTs and Ts are separated by a wall/door/some obstruction and one team has to get to where the other is. The problem is, that the only access between the two teams is through a number of small entry or choke points.

	EvilSponge: Album: Rock Bottom by The Kiss Offs
		Later, as the Kiss Offs played to room full of skeptics (who remained far away from the pyrotechnics) and three true believers (who remained within baking distance of the flashpots), the drummer set part of his drumkit on fire.
		According to what I've read, The Kiss Offs are no longer a working band.
		This isn't to say it's bad or inadequate, but rather it seems apparent that The Kiss Offs set out to record their works in progress before they became non-functional.

	How to Win More Scratch Offs - WikiHow
		The best way to increase your odds of winning scratch offs is using statistics.
		It is possible to get up to dates odds on individual scratch off games by statistically analyzing the prizes that are remaining.
		While these tips can help (and doing some math will help even more), playing scratch offs is gambling and you will still almost always lose more than you win.

	Peek-A-Boo Records Artist
		Along The Kiss Offs' well-worn tour route the band was known for their beer-soaked live shows, which often included one or more members of the band climbing amps, tables and other obstacles.
		If it wasn't evident enough on 1999's trashy and glamorous Goodbye Private Life, The Kiss Offs don't just LOVE rock and roll, they have a destructive, co-dependant relationship with the genre and feel compelled to talk (or "sing") about it whenever possible.
		Other songs revert to the tried and true Kiss Offs' topics such as love, sex and, of course, kissing.

	Sell offs and buy outs in the Jordanian telecom sector \| Jordan Focus
		Last month was a busy one for the Jordanian telecommunications sector as Umniah Mobile Communications, a major player in the kingdom's highly competitive cellular market, was bought by Batelco and the government finally sold off its remaining 41.5 per cent of Jordan Telecom.
		The sale has been long anticipated and the decision by France Telecom to buy another 10 per cent, plus the option of a further 1 per cent to give itself a controlling 51 per cent stake, was equally expected.
		The overall sale of 41.5 per cent of Jordan Telecom netted the government $731.9 million and such a return, which it will use to drive down foreign debt and build up its foreign currency reserves, will surely be added to by further sell offs in the year ahead.

		And Centex said it is setting aside an additional $60 million because of a federal tax audit.

	BBC - Northamptonshire - Entertainment - The On-Offs
		From out of nowhere The On-Offs are about to take the country by storm.
		The first time we saw The On-Offs in their current form was at a Weekender Social night back in August.
		The latter part of 2005 was spent playing one-off shows in Liverpool, London and doing the rounds at Club NME’s up and down the country.

		On the last point, holding off on ST2 would give the region time to digest the tax burdens the SR 520 and SR 99 work will entail, and evaluate whether augmented ST train service is precisely the type of transit alternatives that the region should embrace for the next 100 years.
		Things change, our perspective could change once we see what light rail actually is like in operation, and the one thing we don't need is $26 billion in YOE debt AND a case of buyers' remorse in three years.
		For the Stranger to call anyone "condescending" on transportation issues is so far off of the irony charts that it defies measurement.

		There’s no question that ripping off a fashion design is a crime, but busts like the one in Florida are rare.
		So a typical next step is to have the brand’s lawyer send a threatening letter in hopes that it will scare merchants into shutting down shop or canceling their next purse party.
		As Trainer explained, law enforcement is not so much concerned with brand protection, as it is looking at trade in fake luxury brand names and logos that can bring in enough money to fund crime (which was the case in the Florida purse party where law enforcement seized over US$ 40,000 in knock-offs).

		The excess over book value is called goodwill, and it is allocated to all the assets that are acquired.
		Paying top dollar for another company only to turn around and charge off a large portion of the price tag causes many investors to wonder if it was worth making the acquisition.
		This amount that is charged off in the current quarter would have normally been amortized over the useful life of the software.

		Last year at this time, drivers were shelling out an average of $1.73 per gallon of regular gasoline; but according to AAA's Daily Fuel Gauge Report, the current cost per gallon of regular gasoline in the Pittsburgh area has topped off at $2.20 -- but it's growing by the day.
		He says 'drive offs' are up between 20- to 30-percent over last year; and they could soon take an added toll on customers.
		Many stations have surveillance cameras to catch crooks in action and they promise to prosecute anyone who drives off without paying.

	Kiss Offs: Rock Bottom: Pitchfork Record Review (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Yes, the other kind of rock that causes you to set yourself on fire, accumulate warrants for arrests in three states, and end up on "Real TV" after inciting drunken riots that cause entire crowds to destroy concert venues.
		But alas, the Kiss Offs can't quite pull off a cohesive studio record, even for only 31 minutes.
		Maybe their strength is in their live show, but the chances of being seriously injured are too high for this reviewer.

	The Shape of Days: All in the spin-offs?
		It seems like pretty much everybody who wrote had some beef with me or another, which makes sense because I argued both sides of the issue.
		But some of the most interesting feedback came from folks who pointed out that NASA and the manned space program have given us a lot of things that nobody would have thought to invent if we weren’t trying to put people in orbit or send them to other planets.
		I guess continuing to pour money into manned space flight based on the assumption that the solutions to interplanetary problems will have terrestrial applications is kind of a gamble.

		One spin off is good for every now and then, not every time.
		Good point on the last call, not to mention it added to "Luigi's a coward" while you can't blame him, heck I'd be scared if I was stuck in a haunted manison with barely any electricity and just a specially designed vaccum and flash-light
		If there were less spin offs the company could focus on the main games.
