Hi Phil!

In its heyday the IBR was a must-read, pointing to a lot of good stuff from blogs around the state.

Unfortunately, its editor, Abdul Hakim Shabazz, has gotten into some hot water with local officials: http://ruthholladay.com/index.php?blog=1&title=abdul_he_was_being_investigated_for_crim&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1#comments
