Reupped because ppl simply b lookin 4 it, here.
Unless you've been living in under a rock in a cave on one of Jupiter's moons, you're well aware of the Russian punk band Pussy Riot's "punk prayer" performance at Christ the Savior Cathedral in February 2012 that earned three of their members a two-year sentence in jail last August.
It remains to be seen whether the international outcry over the disproportionate sentence will result in any change in the situation. Meanwhile, in addition to enjoying their music, you can take action at freepussyriot.org.

seems like it should be pronounced "PUSSY Riot," but all the news people sanitize it to "Pussy RIOT." Stuff I've seen is all written in Cyrillic, so I wonder a little bit about the translation -- has pussy become international, cross-sultural slang? Anyway, we need to print up some t-shirts and support the cause...
oh, okay, my bad, i guess the cover pic shoulda told me that their name is in english not russian... anyway, they are awesome and t-shirts are needed more & more with every passing hour... i love how when the verdict came down, the tv news cameras show them in the courtroom just laughing... fight the power, ladies...
