Why am I even attempting this? I knew this task would be upon me soon and I have been dreading it for quite some time now. I have yet to find more than general advice about any kind of special technique to make the transition a smooth and successful one. This is unfounded territory for me. I've always had a book to give me some kind of guide about how to make it through this or that stage, event or obstacle. Thank goodness for my well read friends with previous experience! This was just another task that has been accomplished for many years, by many mothers, so I knew it could be done. For some reason it just scared/scares the crap out of me. My babies are growing up. They haven't used a bottle in over a year. They are showing signs of readiness to potty train. And now, to prepare for potty training, they are making yet another HUGE step to being "big kids" and are moving out of their cribs.
I have no experience with this transition. I do however have a history of reading lots of books about how to care for twins and have my past experience with my own twins to draw on. That can't be too shabby, right?
Why? We have decided to make this transition because when we potty train we will be using the "Potty Train in Three Days" method. This method suggests that you go for it. All or nothing. That means when you start training you don't put a diaper on again – even for night time. If you communicate your expectations briefly and precisely to your children they should soon live up to these expectations with proper guidance and diligence. This also means that my "big kids" need to be able to get out of bed to go potty during the night if the need arises. Hence, the transition to toddler beds.
Day one of crib to toddler bed transition:
After the kids woke from nap we brought their post nap milk up to their room along with the supplies to convert their cribs to toddler beds. I explained that they are not babies any more and that they need big boy & girl beds so that when they learn to use the potty they can get out of bed to go peepee or poopoo. (Yes i'm giving you toddler language – sorry if it's annoying – this is my life and how I talk for most of it!) We have been "potty playing" by letting them sit on the potty before bath time. This is part of prepping them for potty training. Anyways, we let them watch us put the beds together. After the beds were ready, we let the kids climb up into the beds. They played around a bit, bounced, and even jumped.
I explained that they are not allowed to stand in their new beds or jump because they could easily fall out. (Yes it is maybe a foot off the ground, but they could still get hurt from a small fall.)
I also want to acknowledge that the twin's bed room has been super toddler proofed. We have outlet plugs on all unused outlets, straps that go around their entire dresser to prevent them from opening drawers and using them as stairs to climb endlessly, we have removed the rocking foot stool for our glider, have locked the glider in position, and have locked the closet doors shut. We have gates at the top and bottom of our stairs and have put locks on the doors upstairs. The kids can't get out of their room when the door is shut. If the thought of locking them in their room makes you shudder with terror, please note that we have done this for their own safety. Their room is the safest one in the entire house. I don't want them getting out of their room, wandering into the bathroom and deciding 1am would be a nice time for a self drawn bath. We also continue to use a baby monitor so that we can hear them if they are in need. (This is not really necessary, as our room shares a wall with the twins, but I'm over cautious, what can I say…)
After the introduction to their new beds we went on about our day. We maintained our usual bedtime routine and placed them in their beds with instructions not to get out of bed. I placed their pillow pets at the opening in the bed rail to partially "block" their exit. (Yes, you can begin laughing now, because we all know that a pillow pet will hardly stand in the way of a toddler with escape on their mind!) Their usual bedtime is 7:30 PM. We closed the door and stood outside. Yes, I really was hopping that they would go to bed like they usually do. No such luck.
My daughter felt the need to get up time after time to tell my son goodnight. He didn't mind the first couple times and even giggled a bit. After that I think she scared him by getting up too close to him. Poor guy, he just wanted to sleep. I think he would have been fine, if she would have let him sleep. So I go into the room to tell them to get back in bed and go to sleep. This talk lasted 5 minutes and then my husband and I left the room again. This is when my son started crying. He has done this in the past when I have gone in during nap time to tell them "hush". The problem was, now he was out of bed and crying.
My husband and I went back into the room with the lights off. I held my son and rocked him a bit. My husband directed my daughter back to bed repeatedly. He finally just started ignoring her, which worked better than telling her to get back into bed. I placed my son back in his bed and lay my hand on his back for comfort so that he wouldn't get up again. My daughter kept getting up and walking a circle of the room. Whenever she came near my son's bed, I steered her away.
Let me say that if she was a singleton, or was in her own room, I would have shut the door and let her fall asleep in her own time, as long as she was being safe and not crying for more than 15 minutes. Instead, I had to worry about her upsetting and /or waking her brother. Because my daughter was showing no signs of settling down, we wound up turning her crib around so that the half rail faced the wall. She screamed and cried about her loss of independence and freedom, but she couldn't be trusted that night to leave her brother alone, and the poor boy wanted to sleep. So we sat on the floor in their room until my daughter stopped crying and finally fell asleep.
Day two:
My daughter woke crying because her big girl bed was turned around to face the wall. I had a terrible time going to sleep myself, worrying about my son falling out of bed! In the morning we turned my daughter's bed back around and explained again how important it was to stay in your bed at night night time. I also decided that putting the mesh crib bumper along the rail side of the bed might make them hesitate, just a bit, when thinking about getting out of bed. The mesh bumper also stopped me from worrying that they would fall out of bed.
Nap time came. They were in bed at 1 and I shut the door to a quiet room. It was very quiet until 30 minutes later. I then heard the giggles and mumbling that sometimes come early in nap time. Usually the chatter dies down after half an hour and they drift off to sleep. This chatter grew into play. At 3PM the play was outrageous. We got both of them up with out having slept a wink.
Bed time came again. The difference this time is that both kids were so tired they could hardly keep their eyes open for their bath. We put them to bed, continuing our nightly routine of bath, book, bed. We closed the door to quiet twins. The quiet stayed quiet. I haven't heard any little foot steps or any giggles. There have been no excessive "goodnight brother" 's.
As of right now I am hopeful. I will update the blog with a follow up post to give more details of this mother of all transitions! Keep your fingers crossed for us! This transition is huge. The kids will have to lose their cribs, sleep sacks, and footsie pajamas before they are ready to potty train. Slowly but surely!

I did all of the locks in our kiddos room that way they couldn't get into anything or hurt themselves. They both loved playing at first, but that ends after a few weeks. We just stuck to our routine and if they got out of bed we put them back in and said it was nap or bedtime and it eventually worked.
What a great post! We have twins also and even though we have 3 older kids then the twins and I have done the transition from crib to bed before how to do it with twins in the same room will certainly be different! Our twins are also boy/girl and will be 2 in Nov. Although I am sure it will be our son that doesn't want to stay put. Ellie lays down and sucks her thumb and stays quiet even if she is still awake. Eli occassionally screams bloody murder for two mins the falls asleep. Oddly enough middle of the night and early morning screams drom him do not wake Ellie.
I believe that the transition of baby furniture from the crib to the toddler bed can be stressful for both parents and child. With patience and time, I do believe that you will accomplish the task sooner than later.
Today was our big day. My Twin girls are 3 and 3 months old. Nap time didnt work at all, they didnt sleep and tonight they switched beds.
Did that happen with anyone else.
Do we just leave them in the others bed?
I have 18 moth old boys who decided to jump out not climb out of their cribs 1 week ago today. I made the trasition to toddler beds that day. My experiences are similar but I am taking the approach that if nobody is crying due to being hurt (of course, their room is the safest and they can't get out) I am not going in. It is still taking about an hour for them to calm down,they are not crying, for their nap but only a half hour for bed time. I also don't stress if they sleep on the floor, together, etc. I figure they need to learn how to fall asleep on their own. I just wonder how long this phase will last before they get bored with it and just go to sleep? Anybody know?
i have boy and girl twins that are probably going to have to transition to toddler beds soon. i was googling about this and came across your site! my boy and girl twins sound so much like yours were at that time. my son will suck his thumb and fall asleep as soon as i put him down for bedtime (naptime is a different story), but my daughter does NOT want to go to bed. i can't comfort her until she sleeps because she refuses to sleep when i'm around (they haven't fallen asleep with me since they were newborns – they are just hyper kids) and wants to play. no matter how quiet or calm i am! so i've been doing the cry it out method for geez…over a year now and she will cry EVERY SINGLE NIGHT before bed and EVERY SINGLE DAY before nap time (they have to nap in separate rooms or they will NOT nap – or my son will wake my daughter because he just takes much shorter naps than her). the amount of time varies, but rarely ever is there a night where she doesn't scream. so i was just imagining what it's going to be like when we try to transition them to toddler beds. reading your post was helpful and encouraging. i'm sure it will happen eventually, just not sure how much hair i will lose in the process. thanks for posting!

A Cartersville man jailed on a disorderly conduct charge said if he were a police officer, he would not arrest drug dealers and prostitutes.
Actual Cartersville Police Department officers arrested Jeffefy Paul Wilkins, 52, of Hattie Street, at Crown Inn after responding to a 10:30 p.m. call Thursday about an intoxicated man who was irate and refused to leave, according to the incident report, attached.
Police say Wilkins walked away and tried to pretend police weren't asking him for his name and birth date.
"I know you gotta dance your dance, but I ain't willing to dance that dance," Wilkins said to police, before allegedly refusing to give his identity.
Police say he had trouble walking up the motel stairs.
"As I was speaking with Mr. Wilkins I further observed his intoxication as he was swaying wildly, drooling and spitting while speaking, and his words were extremely slurred," an officer reported. "I asked Mr. Wilkins for his name and date of birth approximately two more times before he finally stated, 'Go [expletive] yourself, that is my name.'"
After he was arrested, Wilkins allegedly became more uncooperative and said that if he were a police officer, he would not arrest drug dealers or prostitutes, because there is nothing police can do to stop those two problems.
"When I advised Mr. Wilkins that it is probably a good thing he is not a police officer, he became very irate and began yelling and cursing in the back seat of my patrol car," the officer reported.

WASHINGTON -- It's been five years and one day since Sen. Al Franken was sworn in to represent Minnesota.
Franken and former GOP Sen. Norm Coleman tangled by mere hundreds of Minnesota votes in the 2008 election in what was one of the closest Senate races in the history of the union. It took seven months of legal battles before a three-judge panel concluded Franken narrowly won the election by 312 votes.
Coleman appealed that decision to the Minnesota Supreme Court, which ultimately rejected the appeal June 30, 2009. The junior senator was sworn in July 7, 2009.
Franken joked at the DFL convention in May that he was going to win again in November, "by more than last time."
On Tuesday he said his bid for re-election is really just "building on the work I've been doing day in and day out."
"There's a cliche in the Senate, which is kind of true, which is there are showhorses and workhorses," he said. "I knew I wanted to be a workhorse and get things done."
WASHINGTON -- Sens. Amy Klobuchar and John McCain introduced legislation Tuesday that would allow people to import personal pharmaceutical drugs from Canada.
The Safe and Affordable Drugs from Canada Act allows individuals to import cheaper drugs in the same dosage, form and potency as drugs in the United States. Americans spent an average of almost $1,000 per person per year on prescription drugs -- roughly 40 percent more than the next highest country.
"In Minnesota, we know that Canadians often pay much less for their prescription drugs, but current law prevents Americans from importing these cheapar alternatives and benefitting from these savings," Klobuchar said, in a written statement. "This bipartisan bill would ... inject new competition into the U.S. pharmaceutical market."
The likelihood of a big bill like this to pass the chamber at this late stage -- the Senate has just a little more than three working weeks ahead of the August recess -- is slim, though Klobuchar staffers said Tuesday they hoped to get something through in the lame duck session after the November election.
"This is a commonsense, bipartisan bill that would mean real savings for families and that's why Sen. McCain and I are going to continue to push to get this done," she said, in a statement.
WASHINGTON -- Democratic Sens. Al Franken and Amy Klobuchar will ride out with President Barack Obama Thursday to Minneapolis and attend events with him both days, staffers confirmed Wednesday.
Both Franken and Klobuchar say they want to talk to the president on the plane about the recent flooding in Minnesota.
Klobuchar will speak at the Lake Harriet Bandshell Friday, where Obama is scheduled to make a speech on the economy.
Neither office was able to confirm attendance Tuesday because the Senate voting schedule was still in flux.
Other confirmed Democrats from the Congressional delegation attending at least some of the events with Obama: Rep. Rick Nolan, Rep. Tim Walz, Rep. Betty McCollum and Rep. Keith Ellison. Rep. Collin Peterson will not go to any of them.
Democratic Gov. Mark Dayton was enthusiastic about the visit earlier in the week, telling the Strib: "I would be glad to appear with President Obama," he said. "I would want to appear with any president of any political party."
WASHINGTON -- White House officials confirmed Friday that one of the reasons President Obama decided to visit Minnesota next week was because of the state's recent minimum wage boost.
"We shouldn't have Americans raising their children in poverty," said White House senior adviser Valerie Jarrett, speaking to reporters at a roundtable. "A very important pillar of the foundation for a viable sustainable economy is having a living wage. We are extraordinarily supportive (of Minnesota) which is part of the reason why we're going there next week."
President Obama will also attend a Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee fundraiser at a private home with Minnesota's Congressional Democrats on Thursday.
White House officials have been mum about Obama's schedule beyond the fundraiser while he's in the Twin Cities. Local DFL officials say they expect the president to do at least one public event, as well.
Democratic Gov. Mark Dayton in April signed into the law the largest minimum wage increase in the state's history, giving raises to more than 325,000 Minnesotans. The move to a $9.50 base hourly wage catapults the state from one of the lowest minimum wages to one of the highest once it is fully phased in by 2016.
WASHINGTON -- Rep. Tim Walz was among six Democrats and eight Republicans tapped Wednesday on the House side to work out differences between passed House and Senate legislation to reform the Veterans Administration.
Walz, who served 24 years in the Army National Guard, is a member of the House Veterans Committee.
In a statement, Walz said, "My number one goal as a veteran myself and a member of this conference committee is to ensure our veterans and their families are able to get the care they need, and in a timely manner."
The differences between the House and Senate versions of the reform legislation are not great, staffers say, but both chambers are eager to get VA reform passed and sent to the president promptly.

MT. VERNON — Jefferson Fire Protection District's Board of Trustees has postponed naming a new chief until next month.
Following a brief meeting at the JFPD South 10th Street station on Tuesday, it was announced the board will not fill the position vacated by retiring Chief Mike Huntman until the board's regular monthly meeting at 6 p.m. May 19.
"Two of us are sick and we just decided to postpone action until our regular board meeting," said trustee Terry Moore. Moore was re-appointed to the JFPD Board of Trustees on Monday by the Jefferson County Board. His appointment was recommended last Thursday during a Land, Tax and Appointments Committee meeting.
Moore said the department interviewed six candidates for the chief's position on Tuesday.
The board went into executive session on Wednesday, discussing the candidates before making the announcement that no chief would be named immediately. Moore said the shift commanders will be responsible for the day-to-day operation of the department until the new chief is appointed.
Huntman announced his retirement early this month after 30 years of service to the department.
During a meeting held on April 24, the Board of Trustees voted unanimously to post the opening internally, conduct interviews and then select a candidate prior to Huntman's departure. Huntman's last day as chief was Wednesday.
Jefferson Fire Protection District is a volunteer/paid district. It includes about 30 volunteers, four paid officers and one part-time secretary.
The district covers a 220-square mile area with stations in Dix, Opdyke, Ina and headquarters in Mt. Vernon.

Monterey High School students can expect to smell tar for the first four months of school. Roofers will be replacing the roof in about two weeks. School officials say it could take a little over 100 days to complete the job.
You may remember Wheelock Elementary school was having their roof replaced at the end of school. A few students were sent home sick because of the strong odor. However, air purifiers were placed throughout the school to help keep the air clean. Monterey plans to do the same thing.

It is well known the Jackets are a young team and were in for a long season after the Nash trade. The jokes have poured in about us being an "AHL caliber" team after trading Nash to the Rangers. Most Blue Jackets fans were considering this year a "transition season". We were going to move on from the Rick Nash era and let our young kids develop. Most people believe that since it was going to be a transition year, we may as well let everyone get as much NHL experience as possible. So looking at this long list of players that were likely to be in the NHL, one might think that losing a NHL season (at least part of one) would be a setback towards their development moving forwards.
Not so much. I personally believe it is best to let our young players develop slowly (especially our defensemen), playing top minutes in the AHL. Looking at the Blue Jackets roster headed to Springfield, a lockout might not be a bad thing in the long run. The Jackets have an influx of young talent that is on the fine line between NHL ready, and needing more time in the AHL. And the lockout will ensure that we do not rush these players, even if we wanted to.
Ryan Johansen- Our first round, fourth overall pick in the 2012 spent his year with the big club last year. This was more due to the fact he was ineligible to play in the AHL because of his age. He was simply too good to go back to Portland, but arguably not good enough to be a full time NHL player. Heading into the 2012-2013 campaign, Johansen was poised to improve on his previous season. He put the effort in over the summer packing on around 15 pounds. Watching him at development camp, he was much bigger and hadn't lost a step. He is a player that would have likely not been with the Falcons this year, but could really use some time in the AHL to re-find his scoring touch and add some confidence back. Being forced to be in Springy will only help Johansen in the long run. Keep in mind, the AHL will not be the same as it is when the NHL is in session. Many good players will be playing in the league, which is shown by the multitude of great players being sent to the minors during the last few days. This should be a good stepping stone for Johansen come the time CBA negotiations are resolved and he is back with the big club.
Cam Atkinson- Atkinson spent the majority of the season with the Falcons, playing 51 games while being named an AHL All Star. Atkinson finished the year with the Jackets, and he did so in impressive fashion. He, like Johansen, was likely to be a lock to start with the big club this year. Spending (at least) the beginning of the season with the Falcons will not be a bad thing for the small forward. At only 5-7, another year in the minors will only help the young forward in the future.
Out of the names listed above, Atkinson and Johansen are likely the two most NHL ready. Both spent significant time in the NHL last year and are primed to have long futures in the NHL. The rest of the bunch is even closer to the fine line between NHL and AHL.
John Moore- Moore was another player to spend most of his time with the Jackets last year, playing in 67 games. John Moore started off impressive, but slowly fizzled, finishing with seven points and only two goals. Although his play last year was an improvement over his short time with the big club the year before, it still was not good enough to write his name in with pen on the roster sheet for the upcoming season, especially with the Nash trade bringing in another top young defenseman in Tim Erixon. He is still young at only 21 years old, and another season in the AHL will help him in the long run. He was all but forced to jump up to the NHL last year with all the injuries, and I think him playing in an improved AHL will be good for his long term development that he might not have gotten without the lockout. He should get a lot of minutes and will still be playing against good competition. It should not be too much of a step backwards from what he was dealing with in the NHL last season.
Tim Erixon, David Savard- I am going to group Erixon and Savard together since they are very similar in terms of their development and I think would have had a similar chance of being on the big club. Only one year apart, both are considered top defensive prospects and are destined to be key contributors to the Jackets defense for a very, very long time. Erixon and Savard have both spent the majority of their time in the AHL putting up solid numbers, while occasionally dabbling in the NHL. They were both used similarly (pretty heavily sheltered) in their time with their respective NHL clubs, with Savard being slightly better. Both gained great experience playing in the minors last year, and another year will only help them. They can continue to get large minutes against top competition that can prepare them for their future time with the Jackets. Neither player was good enough in the NHL to stick around for an extended period of time last year, so another year of playing in the AHL will benefit them in the long run to be the best player possible. As far as I am concerned, young defensemen can never have too much experience in the AHL. Having Moore, Savard, and Erixon in the AHL during the lockout will allow them to take their time developing to make sure they are not rushed to the NHL. There is no reason to rush them. It is most definitely not a bad thing giving them all another year to develop.
Jonathon Audy-Marchessault- "JAM" will be a fun guy to keep an eye on this season. He was a great pick up by Scott Howson on free agency day, and he should be a key player with Springy this year. The lockout does not affect him in the way as it does the players already mentioned above. He was likely to start the season with the Falcons and spend most of his time down there. However, the lockout does help him in one way. He will get the opportunity to play with top talent in Johansen and Atkinson while practicing against top defensemen in Moore, Savard, and Erixon. Although it is far from playing games at the NHL level, it is an important stepping stone to be able to play and practice against those guys. It should help teach him what it is going to take to be an NHLer. A player he will likely learn more from than any other player on the Falcons is Cam Atkinson. Standing at only 5-9 (with a smaller frame than Atkinson) he will be able to learn from Atkinson about what it takes being a relatively small player and succeeding in the NHL. This is an important lesson gained that he would likely not have gotten had there been a lockout.
Matt Calvert, Tomas Kubalik- Matty Calvert and Tomas Kubalik are two guys that were likely to begin the season with the Falcons even without a lockout. They both had a tough year last season, battling through injuries suffered in preseason and not producing at the rate most expected. Many expected Calvert to spend the season with the Jackets after his scoring outburst, but that wasn't to be the case. With improved talent around them in Springfield and healthy bodies, this is their chance to show that they can contribute and be an offensive force. The lockout affects Calvert and Kubalik less than the others, but it does help them in the long run because of the fact that even if either had a pretty good training camp, we would not be able to rush them back to the NHL just yet. They both need more time developing in the AHL after the seasons they had last year. The NHL lockout ensures they will receive a little more time, and give them more talent to work with.
Keep in mind; this is not your prototypical "AHL". There will be a lot of NHL caliber players in the league this year. These players will get to play against guys like Krieder, Henrique, Larsson, Hamonic, Neiderreiter, Holtby, etc. Our great defensive prospects will still get the chance to shut down top talent and our forwards will still get the chance to go against top defensemen. Looking at our roster, I see a ton of guys that are right between being an NHL player and needing more time developing in the AHL, more so than most (all?) teams. Most of these tweeners are defensemen, who take longer than forwards to develop. Long term, I think an NHL lockout might help the Jackets to better develop the youngsters, even if it sucks as a fan to not have hockey to watch.

Let's be honest…real, organic, whole foods are just as expensive as packaged meals if you break it down. A box of cereal is around 4 dollars (maybe more). What you get out of that 4 dollars is corn syrup coated corn particles, as well as a ton of other chemicals your body rejects.
A quick, easy, and much cheaper form of breakfast would be things like: eggs, oatmeal (organic whole oats), peanut butter on gluten free toast, toast & jam, etc. So, when you buy groceries, stay on the outer edges of the store where all of the produce, eggs, milk, & meats are. You really don't need to go to the inner aisles unless you need something like gluten free pasta, or gluten free bread. Stay away from things that are labeled "all natural", but not "organic". Saying something is all natural is like a fart in the wind. It has turned into a word game. Companies are allowed to get away with murder by adjusting a few simple words on their labeling.
Here is a guide to buying groceries:
Your groceries should be 60% fresh fruits and vegetables to eat raw or cook with, 20% organic free range eggs, chicken, and other meats, 10% dairy or dairy free equivalents, and 10% packaged foods like noodles, bread, spices, teas, and stocks. Stay away from things like frozen meals, bottled salad dressings, pre-cut carrots, pasteurized juices, gatorade, frozen fries, toaster strudel, etc. Don't be afraid to buy new vegetables. My suggestion is to buy several things you've never cooked before, then go home and google how to cook them! It can be a lot of fun, and it broadens your options of what to eat. Also, buying lots of meat at once and freezing it is the best way to ensure you ALWAYS have something to cook!

Publisher Comments:
Classic title in the "SF Masterworks" series.
It began with a blinding light, a divine revelation from a mysterious intelligence that called itself "Valis". And with that, the fabric of reality was ripped open and laid bare so that anything seemed possible, but nothing seemed quite right. Part science fiction, part theological detective story.

For those unfamiliar with the sound of four bearded guys in greasy leather hats banging on pawn shop guitars in smoky backwoods bars, Interbellum might be a revelation. Gold's impersonation of an American minor league pop-metal band is astonishingly accurate.
From the solo minor-key guitar intro on "One of Us" to the standard carousel arrangement of vocals, then second guitar, then rhythm section; three verses to the chorus, solo, three verses, chorus and vamp out, all in suitably warm and cozy analog gauze, Gold summon historical perfection. Any song on Interbellum would fit nicely in a Time-Life "Best of the Seventies" infomercial CD.
Gold is a band with major league talent. Thomas Sciarone and Nick Polak run through the gamut of guitar melody, purposely avoiding memorable riffs whenever possible. Drummer Igor Wouters and bassist Harm Haverman are ever-so-slightly under-mixed as was the norm in the days before disco. They're there, but just enough to smush into the monophonic space behind the vocals of Milena Eva, who dominates in the same way Grace Slick did on Jefferson Airplane albums.
Interbellum's "Antebellum" rollicks along with a pleasant jukebox in the background musicality. Its mix is all over the place, vocals loud and then ducked and the drum rolls rich in decadent reverb slap-back, then pulled back under the splash cymbals while the vocals return in ear-searing fashion. "Antebellum" is one of the two or three semi-memorable tracks on the album if only for the obvious effort Gold puts into nailing the track.
"Love, The Magician" is Interbellum's most successful track. A zillion songs before it have emoted the same sentiment about falling under the spell of that hypnotic someone, and Gold add nothing to the story, but the guitars get to struggle out of their strait-jackets and indulge in a bit of interplay as well as a tasteful backing line that gives the song actual texture.
After the plainly awful "Gone Under," Interbellum takes a knee and tries to shake itself back to life. Gold roll out acoustic guitars to bolster the electric guitars. It's a change at least. "Medicine Man" teeters between collapsing into a '70s Cher B-side and flying off into some form of wacky dissonant guitar workout. And yes, the rack toms get the Native American rhythm massage.
The Netherlander five-piece must be credited with a tight, authentic representation of all that was woeful about 1975 hard rock. Gold's stated goal was to make an album that conjured up a golden era when bands made heavy music because they wrote heavy songs, not because they just make big ugly noises. It's a place many bands need to rediscover. Gold has the right idea, but jumped off the tracks with Interbellum.

President - John Saia

Treasurer - Maurice Panichi
Secretary - Louis Mollica
Board Member - Jack Livigni
Board Member - Federico DeMarco
After World War II many Italians immigrated to the United States of America. Many Italians from the south of Italy settled in Brooklyn, New York. Most of the new immigrants did not speak English and needed each other to settle into their new communities. The immigrants organized and formed many social clubs to help keep their cultures alive in their new home. These social clubs were a place where immigrants can go to socialize, relax and organize as a community. After these social clubs were formed many new immigrants would have access to the clubs and this would help them transition into their new lives. Soccer games amongst the different social clubs became a regular occurrence in Brooklyn. It was not just the Italian social clubs doing this; but also the German, Greek and Eastern European clubs. In 1949 the Brooklyn Italians Soccer Club was born.
The founding families of the club were Sorrentino, Mazzeo, the Campagna Brothers, Carestia, Camposeo, Lombardo, Narduzzi, Pusateri, the Fugallo and Poscopo brothers. Mr. Piscopo was elected the first president of the Brooklyn Italians. Following Mr. Piscopo was Carmine Mazzeo in 1951 until 1954 and again in 1947. After winning the first two championships of the Metropolitan League the club was renamed to Palermo Football Club. In 1974 the club changed its name back to Brooklyn Italians Soccer Club under president Corrado "Joe" Manfredi.
In 1979 the Brooklyn Italians Soccer Club won the US Open Cup (equivalent to the Italian Coppa Italia or English FA Cup). The game was played in Chicago at the Winnimac Stadium. The opponent was Croatia S.C. and the final score was 2-1. The coach was Lorenzo DeSimone and the manager was Joe Clemente. The Manfredi presidency would be remembered for that magnificent accomplishment 30 years into the clubs founding.
From 1987 until 2013 the presidency was in the hands of Jerry Valerio, 25 consecutive years, a record for the club. During his presidency,
trophies, accomplishments, championships have been pouring in to the already full glass showcase of the club. The Brooklyn Italians won the U.S. Open Cup for the second time after defeating the Richardson Rockets of Texas 1-0 thanks to a 7th minute goal by Ernest Inner. Current MLS team Real Salt Lake President Bill Manning was a part of that team and was shown a red card. After the prestigious Cup, came an International accomplishment in 1997. The Under 14 won the "Enzo Ferrari" International
Youth Tournament in Maranello (Italy) defeating on penalties (5-3) Club Napoli of Palomonte.
Under president Valerio's guide the club's attention has focused on youth soccer. The club now has over 300 youth players. Playing in local leagues, tournaments and cups the youth side has managed to overflow the club house with trophies. The club's first team has many players who grew up through the youth system. Mr. Jerry Valerio is currently an honorary president for life. His work continues to live through the players that are in and have passed through the club house.
Today the club's president is John Saia. The organization's executive board is responsible for the NYC Indoor Classic, Christopher Columbus Cup, Travel teams, Scuola Calcio, and the Men's NPSL team. The club has grown tremendously in the past few years and the president and executive board have great plans for the next generation of Brooklyn Italians players. Building off of the past leaders, success and hard work of Mr. Jerry Valerio the Brooklyn Italians Soccer Club is ready to continue into the future.

3 Incredibly Easy Remedies to Help a Dry Nose
I've been on a kick doing home remedies to help with dryness lately because it's an issue that is near and "dear" to my heart. Almost as bad as chapped lips is a dry nose-or more specifically, dried out nasal passages. As the weather gets cold and I find myself reaching for tissue more often, I am starting to feel the painful dryness set in. It gets so bad I just dread waking up in the morning. While many people turn for a little tub of petroleum jelly, I tend to steer clear of that-especially since you can end up inhaling it, which isn't a good thing if you wind up with a glob in your lungs.
1. Coconut oil
Coconut oil is simple, natural, effective, and it smells good. It also doesn't glob like petroleum jelly does, so the risk of a big chunk getting sucked up isn't there (although its solid at room temperature, it's softened before use here.)
You will need…
-1/2 teaspoon or so of virgin coconut oil
-Cotton swabs
-A small bowl
Place a half a teaspoon or so of coconut oil in a small microwave safe bowl and warm it until it is soft enough to be easily applied (about 10 seconds.) It does not need to be melted down into a liquid, and in fact should be left semi-solid. Dip a cotton swab into it and generously cover it. Apply to the inside of each nostril so that there is a good through coating. Apply up to 3 times a day (and always before bed.)
2. Steam Bowl
Allowing steam to fill your noise can moisten the mucous membranes that have become dried out and painful. This really helps relieve discomfort in the short-term, and also clears out your nose so you don't have to blow it a bunch (which dries it out even more.) With each breath it's like a warm comforting wave of moisture is sinking into your sore nose and making it feel better by the second. I usually follow this treatment with coconut oil about 15 minutes afterwards.
You will need…
-A large bowl
-A towel
-Hot water
Bring several cups of water to boil and then pour into your bowl. Place your face over the bowl (not too close though, as the steam can be quite hot) and drape a towel over your head and the bowl to trap the steam. Breathe deeply for 5-10 minutes, and then follow up 15 minutes later with an application of coconut oil. If you don't feel like making up a bowl of hot water just for your nose, even inhaling the steam from a cup of tea or taking a hot shower can really help.
3. Almond Oil and Aloe Vera Gel
Almond oil is a natural emollient, or moisturizer, helping the sensitive skin in the nostril to become softer and more pliable, therefore lessening the chance that it will crack. It may also help lessen evaporation. Aloe vera can help soothe the dryness quickly, but it won't provide the same lasting moisture as the almond oil. I use it mostly for the initial relief (I refrigerate mine) but you can stick to just almond oil if you like.
You will need…
-1/2 teaspoon almond oil
-1/4 teaspoon aloe vera gel (optional)
Thoroughly mix almond oil and aloe vera gel. Soak a q-tip in the mixture and swab gently inside your nostrils. You can also apply with a cotton ball that has been soaked, but I find this way to be slightly more difficult.
When I find my nose dried out and painful I tend to sink into despair. It sounds dramatic, but when it gets so dry it cracks and bleeds it can really be a downer. Before actually realizing I could probably do something for it, it felt like I had to suffer through the whole winter, but with the above remedies (that are truly about as easy as it gets) a dry nose is one less thing I have to worry about during these frigid months.
-Turn down the heat, turn up the humidifier. The heat will dry out the air more than it already is, while the humidifier adds moisture. This will also help if you wake up with dry eyes/a dry throat.
-If you are suffering from a nose dried out because you have a cold and have been blowing it too much, using a saline spray can help loosen up mucous and provide moisture/relief in a less harsh manner.
-Since it's colder in the winter it's easy to drink less water, but it's just as important to stay hydrated. If you aren't drinking enough, where will your body get the moisture to keep your nose comfortable?

TEAMS: Boston Celtics, Brooklyn Nets, Los Angeles Clippers
Photo Credit: BusinessInsider.com/AP With the future of the Celtics roster in jeopardy, as Kevin Garnett contemplates retirement and general manager Danny Ainge is trying to figure out what to do with long-time staple Paul Pierce, it seems that there may be a change at head coach as well. Doc Rivers, who is beloved by Celtics players and fans alike, is considering leaving the Celtics according to Chris Broussard of ESPN. Specifically, Rivers simply said that it "may be time for a change" Here is more from Broussard's report: "Doc loves coaching," the source told ESPN. "He loves coaching in Boston. But he feels it may be time for a change." Rivers, who has been attending the Celtics' pre-draft workouts, is unsure of what he wants to do and has not yet ruled out returning to Boston for a 10th season. He has a very close relationship with Ainge, and the source said that is one factor that is making his decision so difficult. The most peculiar part of this report seems to be its timing for Rivers and the C's. If Rivers wanted to leave Boston, the decision should have probably came a bit earlier for both parties, as the Celtics may have trouble finding an adequate replacement with most teams already full-fledged in their coaching searches. The Celtics would surely want to make a splash in the coaching department, and the Celtics job is obviously one of the best in the business. You would think the usual list of high-profile suspects would be interested, specifically recently unemployed Lionel Hollins and George Karl. Rivers, however, has other options, such as broadcasting, or simply taking some time off and waiting for the right job. However, Rivers would be a hot commodity if he hit the open market, and teams such as the Brooklyn Nets and the Los Angeles Clippers, both who were denied the right to interview the Celtics coach earlier this offseason, may be hesitant to name a head coach with Rivers' situation in Boston up in the air. Either way, a decision must be made sooner rather than later so both parties don't have to scramble to find other options.

This is a new year and a new season. Here we go again. I went to my emotional bank and took out a huge loan for last night's game. It started out well enough. I put on my new Brett Favre jersey, which is complete with the new fifty year patch and sat down in front of the telly. I texted my dad and exchanged pictures on the mobile phone with each of us in Viking battle gear and a whole lot of optimism. Since my dad lives in Tennessee, it was our way of connecting. Dad is one of the faithful from way back when they started in 1962. I got on board after my birth in 1968 (but enough rambling). So, I watched the game. I was a bit shaken when the Saints scored so fast. However, the time after that, I was encouraged. The Saints seemed to slow down and at times lost their zeal. In the second quarter they seemed to be at a standstill. That was our moment to strike! Our offense struggled but but it did produce. Our defense held well and the Saints missed all of their field goals (no voodoo happening there).
You know, there were times in the fourth quarter when I thought Lewis, or Berrian, or even Visonte would break open and pull it off. I could envision Favre running across the field in triumph after a great game-winning pass. I think we all were. But it didn't happen. I was hoping that the Vikings would beat the Super Bowl champs and maybe they would get some respect, but that didn't happen. But we have to look at this way. It didn't end the same way as it did in January. The Saints are NOT heading off to the Super Bowl and Favre is not injured and it's not the end of the season. Now the talking heads at ESPN and Sports Center and etcetera, will go on and on about how the only teams that are contenders for the Super Bowl this year is the Saints and Dallas. Like the good loyal Vikings fan I am, that makes me sick!
It's obvious that we need Sidney Rice and Cedric Griffin back and healthy, but without them, we held the Saints to only 14 points! Plus, we still managed to get in the endzone. This is not going to be a season of field goals. Our Vikings have the talent to do it this year. Brett came back to complete some unfinished business and I hope he can do it. Heck, we want him to do it. This is our 50th anniversary and dang it, we want it to be special! I'm praying and hoping above hope that it will be.
This year we had an early Christmas and my folks came up North to visit. The gift I gave my dad was a Vikings helmet with the signatures of the Purple People Eaters. His eyes lit up when he saw it. As he held it in his hands he said, "This will mean a lot more if the Vikings can win it this year." He's right I think we all want to see the Vikes win it this year. But you know what? Even if (God forbid) they don't, that helmet will still mean a lot to him and he will display it proudly none the less. Because he is a faithful Vikings fan no matter what.
I have seen how Vikings fans handle disappointments and have read some real heart-wrenching blogs about how sons watch the game with their aging retired fathers and how they say, "You can't win em all." Well this year, I don't want to learn new philosophies of not winning and reading the book Coping With Loss. I want to see how Vikings fans and players handle being World Champions. I still think we can do it! We have the talent and the heart.
So, I'm going to go and take out another emotional loan for the next game. I'm going to believe the Vikings will be able to pull off the big one. I'm going to believe that perhaps the ONLY team that can match the Vikings is the Saints. I'm going to wear my Vikings jersey in public places and proclaim this is the year of the Purple Reign! We have to win at least one Super Bowl before that comet hits the earth.
There is still an entire season ahead of us!!
(I'm done preaching to the choir). BELIEVE VIKINGS FANS!!!

Afternoon play at the 2012 U.S. Open was suspended on Tuesday due to rain, creating a scheduling problem on the men's side of the bracket as more matches must now be squeezed into a smaller amount of time.
No. 4 David Ferrer of Spain was beating No. 13 Frenchman Richard Gasquet, 7-5, 7-6 (7-2), 4-3, when the day session was officially suspended. Each man were able to break the other with relative ease in the first set, as Ferrer converted three of four breaks and Gasquet converted two of his three opportunities. Gasquet had numerous chances to take charge in the second set, but only converted one of seven break points. The Frenchman had a 4-2 lead, but Ferrer broke back and ended up winning the set in a tiebreaker.
A long rain delay paused the match tied at 2-2 during the third set. Play briefly resumed but stopped again when the day session was suspended with Ferrer leading 4-3 and up 30-15 during Gasquet's serve. With Rafael Nadal out of the U.S. Open, Ferrer is the highest-ranked Spaniard in the tournament, and the man most likely to join the three favorites (top seeds Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray) in the semifinals.
On the women's side, No. 1 Victoria Azarenka topped No. 7 Samantha Stosur, 6-1, 4-6, 7-6 (7-5), before play was suspended. Azarenka will face the winner of the match between No. 3 Maria Sharapova and No. 11 Marion Bartoli. Bartoli was up 4-0 in the first set when play was suspended.

These guys are pretty hard core fishermen. You have to be if you fish the Barents Sea North of Norway.
The halibut they hook up is a monster. Every time they got it within 20 meters of the boat, it dove back down to the bottom, taking line out to over 150 meters.
If pays to be good physical shape if you go after the king of flatfish. Once hooked, all you can do is play the game, until the fish tires out. Hopefully you've got more than one angler on board, so you can take turns.
The finally do manage to get the hali up to the boat, but get this, they dive into the ice cold Arctic water in their survival suits (don't try this at home kids) to measure it at 180 centimeters long (5 feet 11 inches). The estimated weight is 90 kilos (198 pounds).
If it was me, I'd rather head over to the coast of British Columbia to catch hali that big. At least it's warm there. LOL… but it's a well known fact, the colder the water, the tastier the catch.
This video shows a Nordic safari for a 200 pound halibut. It's a tiring battle, but in the end, the result is one amazing fish.

LOUISVILLE, KY. (WDRB) -- The second Metro Councilwoman in less than a year is now the center of an ethics investigation for how she spent your taxpayer dollars.
Barbara Shanklin was noticeably missing from a park dedication in her district Thursday morning. Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer helped open the city's fourth dream playground for disabled children, and even thanked Shanklin for her work on the project.
A political watchdog group filed an ethics complaint questioning the councilwoman's handling of public money for an upholstery program that, records show, benefited her family.
Shanklin also fired her grandson, Gary Bohler, after reports revealed he was on the city's payroll with outstanding warrants.
The mayor said Thursday, "Councilwoman Shanklin has done a nice job in Newburg. She has worked hard for the people here. Obviously there's some concerns about what's being surfaced now . So let's make sure all the facts get together and make sure she has the opportunity to present her situation, too."
Shanklin has denied any wrongdoing and says she welcomes the investigation.

Hi there!
My name is Christina Munoz and I work for KATV Channel 7 News, the ABC affiliate in Little Rock, Arkansas.
I'm hoping you can help me out with a story I'm working on.
The families of the two men that were shot while standing outside a recruiting office in Little Rock in June of 2009 (Private William Long was killed, Private Quinton Ezeagwula was injured) are hoping to get Purple Heart awards for their loved ones.
I've been told the reason is because the incident was considered "criminal" and not an international act of terrorism. So my question now is... why?
The killer, Carlos Bledsoe aka Abdulhakim Muhammad, claimed to be a terrorist (trained in Yemen) and shot the men in uniform because of their uniforms and because of his hatred of the US military. Is there a set of guidelines used to determine whether an incident is classified as a terrorist attack? Or is it on a case-by-case basis?
I'd love to talk to you more about it... you can call anytime. Or you can email a statement or any other information that can help us out.
Thanks so much for your help!!

Sun, sea, and sand — everyone's idea of the perfect Caribbean getaway. But where can you find such a postcard-perfect escape when you want to get away from everyone else who is getting away? Head to the Turks & Caicos Islands (TCI), where the unspoiled Caribbean of the imagination still thrives.
Dangling on the southern end of the Bahamas, due north of Hispaniola, the TCI comprise eight inhabited islands and 32 smaller cays, the most developed of which is Providenciales, or "Provo" as it is known locally, where you'll find most of the resorts — and where the hardest decisions you'll have to make are what drink to order and when to flip over.
1. Stay at the Gansevoort. With its contemporary urban design, clean lines, white-on-white décor, and intimate vibe, the Gansevoort Turks & Caicos is the epitome of Caribbean chic. Plus, it's the only resort on the island in which every room has a view of the ocean.
2. Beach bliss. There are plenty of beautiful beaches in the Caribbean, but none can match the silky white sand and Tiffany blue waters of Grace Bay. Voted one of the best beaches in the world by Condé Nast Traveler, this wide 12-mile crescent is protected by the world's third-largest barrier reef.
3. Undeveloped paradise. Don't expect to see large shopping malls, souvenir stores or tacky tourist attractions on Provo. Shopping is limited, save for a few trendy beachwear boutiques and high-end jewelers in shopping centers apart from the resorts, which themselves are well-spaced along the beach. This all creates the feeling of being on your own private island.
4. Get wet. Most activities revolve around the water, from snorkeling to scuba diving, kayaking to paddleboarding to parasailing, or simply lounging on a beach chair in the surf. A boat trip with Caicos Dream Tours includes snorkeling, diving for conch, and a stop at Little Water Cay, also known as Iguana Island, inhabited by 2,000 endangered rock iguanas.
5. It's all about the rum. When in Rome… or at least when in the Caribbean, drink rum. And when in Provo, "you have to have Bambarra Rum! Yah, mon!" says Guion Gordon (pictured above), bartender at the hip Vino Tiempo Wine Bar & Lounge. The locally made spirit is available in Gold and Silver 2-year-old blends, coconut, 4-year-old Black, and the top-shelf Trouvadore, aged for 15 years in oak casks. Bambarra 8-Year-Old Reserve on ice is perfect for sipping. Surprisingly smooth, its flavor is highlighted with delicious notes of vanilla.
6. A budding cocktail culture. While rum punch — a sweet mix of orange juice, pineapple juice, Bambarra Gold and Silver, and a dash of grenadine — is an island tradition, cocktails lists are evolving. At Stelle at the Gansevoort, try the Watermelon Cucumber Mojito, a refreshing blend of muddled watermelon, lime, mint, cucumber, and Bambarra Silver, or the Bakewell Punch, a vibrant take on the Bakewell tart, featuring muddled raspberries, almond syrup, grapefruit juice, and, of course, Bambarra rum.
7. Conch is king. Cracked. Chowder. Ceviche. Fritters. Salad. Creole style. Conch (pronounced 'konk') are big business here, and no place does conch better than da Conch Shack, a low-key beachside landmark. Watch as the chef "knocks" the conch from its shell — maybe you'll even get to try the pistol, the long, translucent, spaghetti-like rod (locals call it the "conch penis") that's a reputed aphrodisiac — then relax on a picnic table in the sand and enjoy your meal along with a pitcher of rum punch or a local Turk's Head lager from the adjacent Rum Bar. On Thursdays, live music draws in the crowds.
8. Fridays = nightclub. Everyone of the island knows that the place to be on Friday nights is Stelle at the Gansevoort. Starting at 10 pm, the glass doors that separate the restaurant from the pool area close, the laser lights start swirling, and a DJ pumps out dance tunes 'til the early morning.
9. There's no bad season. With sun 350 days a year, there's no wrong time to visit. The best weather occurs in November through May, with temperatures in the low 70s to mid 80s. July through October brings humid weather and occasional rainstorms, but the southeasterly trade winds and brief showers temper the heat.
10. Pick up a potcake. Potcakes are the stray dogs that populate the TCI. A mix of Labrador retriever, German shepherd and English fox terrier, the dogs — now an officially recognized breed on the islands — were dubbed "potcakes" because locals would feed them the caked remains from the bottom of cooking pots. At Potcake Place, a nonprofit rescue organization, you can learn about the plight of these gentle pups with the curlicue tails, take one for a walk on the beach, or even adopt one to bring home with you—the ultimate island souvenir.

Jones and Ball: Tweetmates 4eva
admin | Aug 14, 2010 | Comments 4
Syracuse football 2010 will attempt to take another step toward righting the wrongs of the previous administration. The recruiting battles are starting to favor the Orange. National media is no longer dumping on SU as a laughingstock program. (Gasp) Marrone's Marauders are even talking postseason.
However, what happens if this team once again falls into the 4-5 win category? What if November merely brings early season basketball attention, no meaningful football left on the docket? You always need a reason to stay tuned.
Enter Torrey Ball and Chandler Jones, junior defensive ends and non-stop laughs. The Fizz follows the Orange athletes on Twitter and passes along some of our favorite Tweets. Jones and Ball are constantly some of the most energetic and entertaining.
Recently, Ball has asked some of life's deeper questions like "Why this girl in my class look jus like a oompa loompa? Totally #blown" and "Why these two dudes hugged up on the bus?" Torrey, I don't know brother. I just don't know.
But when the two are together, things can really take off. They've tweeted pics while shopping for suits and eating Chinese food. Ball captioned the pic of Jones throwing down some General Tso's chicken "@ChanJones99 getting big." Let's just hope not too big. I'm wondering if food court fried rice is on the SU football dietary menu?
So sleep well knowing no matter what happens this season, Ball and Jones have your comedic content filled. Teammates and Tweetmates.

IT'S no secret Chinese films released during the Lunar New Year season are often high on star power but low on everything else. More often that not, these blockbusters tend to be hit-and-miss affairs, though recent ones such as Eric Tsang's I Love Hong Kong franchise boasted better-than-usual plots instead of simply rehashing the same old family reunion theme that Raymond Wong's rebooted All's Well That Ends Well shamelessly did.
Both filmmakers have given their respective series a rest this year and in place are several new ones including King of Hong Kong trash cinema, Wong Jing, rebooting his God of Gamblers franchise from the 1990s. His latest, From Vegas to Macau, stars Chow Yun Fat as Magic Hands Ken, a casino security expert who can tell cards simply by touching them. He's forced to return to gambling when his daughter Rainbow (Kimmy Tong) is captured by Ko (Gao Hui), the cocky head of an underground gambling syndicate who has never lost a game of cards and is determined to test Ken's "magic" hands.
Nicholas Tse co-stars as Ken's protege and Rainbow's love interest while funnyman Chapman To provides ample comic relief. Like most of Wong's films, it mixes slapstick humour with action and to be fair, the nonsensical gambling action-comedy genre is something he pioneered and From Vegas to Macau is a throwback to that. Chow's natural charisma saves the film from going completely downhill with its pure absurdness. From Vegas to Macau is not the best bet but also not the worst this festive season.
Also being rebooted is Sandra Ng's Golden Chicken franchise. Golden Chickensss is the third instalment in the series and the first in a decade. While the first two films mixed social commentary with comedy, this new one goes mostly for mini-sketches in the first hour to allow its guest stars to play a series of hilarious roles; like Edison Chen as a sleazy Japanese brothel owner, Donnie Yen spoofing Wong Kar Wai's take on Ip Man and Louis Khoo hamming it up as a Mainland Louis Khoo impersonator.
Any semblance of a plot only creeps in during the second half where Ng, reprising her role as the kindly prostitute, Kam, helps her old beau Gordon (Nick Cheung) get back on his feet in post-1997 Hong Kong after he's released from jail.
Plot-wise, it's the weakest in the series but the endless cameos and sharply written jokes make up for things even if some of it are lost in translation with the Mandarin dubbing and English subtitles. But the stars' cameos alone definitely makes this whore-with-a-heart-of-gold tale worth revisiting.
The same can barely be said about Jack Neo's The Lion Men even though it features the same lovable cast from Ah Boys To Men. Instead of army recruits, they now play a band a brothers in the Tiger Crane lion dance troupe. Trouble starts to brew when their leader Supreme (Tosh Zhang) is banished because of a mistake he made and he goes on to form a new hip-hop lion dance hybrid group that will go up against Tiger Crane in a tournament.
To make things worse, both Supreme and Mikey (Wang Weiliang), who succeeds the former as the new leader of Tiger Crane, fall for the same girl, Xiao Yu (Eva Cheng). As if that's not complicated enough, she's also the daughter of the founder of Tiger Crane (Chen Tianwen) and the latter forbids her from dating boys from lion dance troupes.
With so much going on, it's no wonder Neo has split the film into two parts (the sequel opens during the March school holidays) but really there's no need for that if he had cut down on the blatant product placements and focused on tightening the draggy plot instead. Even the boys from the cast lose a bit of their natural charm here and resort to overacting to handle the drama. But like most of Neo's works, The Lion Men is review-proof and will probably do roaring business at the box office regardless.

Listen to Samples
Having been one of the original bass music practitioners, it makes a lot of sense for Bassnectar AKA Lorin Aston to team up with dance music legends Underworld on their classic track "Rez". On February 12th, Om Records imprint Child's Play will release Bassnectar's remix of the cut, first put out by the seminal EDM group 20 years ago. "Rez" has had a special place in Ashton's heart for well over a decade as a memorable part of his early exposure to dance music.
"By the time I first heard 'Rez'…it was already a classic. It was the third 'rave' I had ever been to," says Ashton, "That was the only song I remembered from the entire night. And for years to come, whenever I hear any version or remix or even a slight fragment of that shimmering resonant arpeggiator I get flashbacks."
The Bassnectar remix adds mounds of thunderous bass to the track while still retaining its delicate and distinctive arpeggiated melody. The single will be released on 180-gram vinyl with digital download, full color jacket sleeve and liner notes from Bassnectar and Underworld. Vinyl ships on 2/26/13.

BECKLEY (WVVA) -- A historic building will be demolished, making way for a popular fast food joint to take over its spot on a busy intersection.
Beckley Feed and Hardware, off Route 16 and Route 3, is no more. Reports say McDonald's is taking over the property.
Some locals are excited about the new restaurant. It will be the only chain fast food in reasonable walking distance of the city's downtown.
Others like John Rock, are not completely sold. He works nearby the old hardware store location. "Kind of mixed views on it," says Rock. "They have a red light that has crashes at it all the time. But it's good for business I guess. It brings more to this area then it did before. I guess it'll be good."
Meanwhile the sign and original documents from Beckley Feed and Hardware will be preserved at the Beckley Historic Landmark Commission. The building has been in place since 1935 and is on the national historic registry.
