Kessel Scoress First US Hat Trick In 12 Years
News Desk
Follow @ SportsTalkFLA
Phil Kessel's outstanding Olympic tournament continued on Sunday, as he recorded a natural hat trick in what is shaping up to be a blowout victory over Slovenia.
It marks the first American hatty at the Winter Games since John Leclair turned the trick at Salt Lake in 2002. Leclair accomplished the feat during a tournament-opening 6-0 rout of Finland.
Kessel, who came into today's game with four points through his first two contests, opened the scoring just 1:04 into the affair, converting a Joe Pavelski pass to give the Americans a 1-0 lead.

Lamb Irish Stew
|Lamb shoulder
|2 Pound, cut into serving pieces
|Small potatoes
|2 Pound
|2 Large
|Chopped parsley
|1 Tablespoon (For Garnish)
|To Taste
|To Taste
Remove excess fat from meat with a sharp knife.
Wipe meat with a clean, damp cloth.
Peel potatoes, cut half into thick slices.
Peel and slice onions.
Put a layer of sliced potatoes in the bottom of a shallow casserole.
Add a layer of onions, season with salt and pepper.
Add the meat, season well, then add the rest of the onions.
Season again and cover with small whole potatoes.
Add sufficient cold water to just cover (1-2 cups).
Cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook in a moderately slow oven for l 1/2-2 hours.
Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
This dish is often spoiled by too fat meat, however, if you put small whole potatoes on top of the stew, the fat is absorbed by these and they taste delicious.
A wide, shallow casserole is better than a deep one, so that the fat can reach all the potatoes.

Legacy QuickVideo: How to Create a List of War of 1812 Candidates
October 16, 2014
In yesterday's after-webinar party we showed how to create a list of War of 1812 candidates in your Legacy Family Tree file. We used the "Veteran Identification Strategy" portion of Thomas MacEntee's syllabus and created a list of 153 individuals in my family file. Then we learned how to narrow the list down to just my direct line, and found 68. Wow, I'm excited to start searching for them using the resources Thomas presented. Watch the entire webinar here or the QuickVideo below.

Seskinore farmer appears in court accused of making threat to kill
A farmer from near Seskinore has appeared in court accused of making a threat to kill.

He faces one charge of threatening to kill Paul Stewart on February 6, 2013.
It is believed the incident in question relates to the construction of the A5 duel carriageway.
Mr Beggs spoke only to say that he understood the charge against him and he was freed on continuing bail.
The case was adjourned for five weeks.

Your Visit / Volunteer Experience
We offer an intimate elephant encounter which is suitable for young and old, active and relax. Almost all we do is centred around our two adorable elephants Sujee (nearly 7) and Washtu (almost 5).
Your day starts by joining the elephants on their daily morning walk as it is vitally important for them to get plenty of exercise (if staying overnight your day starts with cleaning the elephant beds first). After the walk see the elephants enjoy a wash and swim in the lovely cool river. Next we take our tea break before helping out in the eco-garden or learning how to cook home-made Sri Lankan food.
After lunchtime we follow with various enrichment games for the elephants to stimulate their minds. Every week, on Tuesdays and Thursdays, time is spent for educational activities with the local children or helping at the disabled home.
Part of the daily routine is for the elephants to be washed in the river in the afternoon before walking back to the enclosure where they are observed playing until sunset. Then it's time to relax and enjoy the evening meal.
Visitors staying the night are made to feel very welcome by our wonderful host family whose home is next to the elephant enclosure.
We have 2 rooms for our visitors with en-suite Western bathroom. At the end of a heart-warming and most enjoyable day with the elephants, there is nothing better than a cool, refreshing shower before dinner.
All activities are done at your leisure and if you'd rather sit back, relax and simply enjoy watching Sujee and Wasthu being elephants, that is no problem either.
We offer aditional activities and excursions such as yoga classes, river tubing and trips to interesting must see places both world famous and off the beaten track. Ask us for more information.

What's the buzz from the world of sports? Here are some items that will have people talking:
Forgive our Northwest-centric viewpoint, but why is there any debate about future sites for the U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials?
Anybody who has been in Eugene for part of the past week — or was there four years ago — can attest to the magical atmosphere that permeates the Trials when they are in Track Town USA. Eugene loves its track, and even the sport's fans from other parts of the country concede to the greatness of Hayward Field.
Track fans like to wear T-shirts that say, "The only thing better than track … is field." In Eugene, they act like they mean it.
An email sent to Talking Points last week complained about sportswriters criticizing the Mariners while ignoring the fact that it is difficult to rebuild in baseball because the sport does not have a salary cap.
Well, that would be a fact … if it were true.
Sure, baseball doesn't have a salary cap, but nine different franchises have managed to win the World Series in the past 11 years. During that time, 14 clubs have appeared in the World Series. Baseball, in fact, has more parity than the NFL or the NBA.
Also, the Mariners' payroll the past couple of years has been right in the middle of the pack of MLB teams, yet their win-loss record has been near the bottom of the pack.
Sorry, but the Mariners' shortcomings are all of their own making.
Documents that came to light Saturday suggest that Joe Paterno played a role in Penn State covering up Jerry Sandusky's reign of terror on young boys.
Emails between school officials in 2001 show that they had developed a plan to alert authorities and confront Sandusky with allegations that he had been raping children, and that Paterno helped squash that plan.
We likely never will know the level of Paterno's complicity in the scandal. But one reaction seems beyond debate: Why does Penn State still have a statue of Paterno outside its football stadium?

As the students at East Aiken School of the Arts arrived in the cafeteria last Thursday, they were greeted by "One Step Ahead," a bluegrass band.
Four of the six band members performed through the extended lunch period, taking part in an American Education Week celebration at the school. A number of parents would visit each day to have lunch with their kids.
"We got together as a group three months ago," Roger Abernathy said, "but we've played with each other or around each other in the past. It's the first time we've played for children, and we're enjoying it."
Megan Jensen, East Aiken's music teacher, provided a variety of music genres throughout last week. Orchestral director Jahnell Williams performed the cello, viola and violin on Monday. Guitar instructor Jeff Pruitt was joined by three members of the Cedar Creek Church praise band for a performance the next day.
The featured program on Wednesday was the USC Aiken jazz combo. Faculty and staff members contributed their talents on Friday to wrap up the event – Antonio Scott, Linda Walker and Kim Entzminger and Jensen, on piano; and Travis Jenkins, on drums.
"It's been an exciting week," Jensen said. "We're incorporating this into the classrooms, looking at the different genres and the styles of music. Our kids don't get to see a lot of concerts, and this shows what it means to be a good audience."
Abernathy, a instrumental instructor in Aiken, was joined by Mickey Joyner, Ronnie Davis and Steve Smith. All of them started out with country music and rock and roll, "but bluegrass is in our heart," Abernathy said. "We do some old Tony Joe White and traditional bluegrass, but we like to step it out a bit, too."
Senior writer Rob Novit is the Aiken Standard's education reporter and has been with the newspaper since September 2001. He is a native of Walterboro and majored in journalism at the University of Georgia.

Switzerland midfielder Tranquillo Barnetta is looking forward to Saturday's friendly against Italy in Geneva as Ottmar Hitzfeld's side look to rediscover some form ahead of the FIFA World Cup™.
The Swiss have been beaten by Costa Rica, Uruguay and Norway since qualifying for the tournament in South Africa. They will be looking to turn their fortunes around before they open their World Cup campaign against European champions Spain, and Barnetta believes there could be no better opponent for them to beat than the defending world champions.
"This is going to be a real test for us, but I think it is pointless playing against the so-called small nations just to build up self-confidence," he said. "We have got to play well against strong opponents - that is what gives you self-confidence."
The Bayer Leverkusen midfielder believes the best way to beat the Italians will be to surprise them.
"We have got to become more unpredictable," he said. "And we can do this by switching positions more often. We also should try and find the way to goal quicker and maybe even try a few long-range efforts, especially with this ball."

Someone suggested I'd blog about Skype sex and to quote said person: I aim to please and shoot to thrill…so I am now blogging about Skype sex. "Hello darling, would you like a blow job?" "Yes please honey, let me just get the vacuum cleaner out…" I'm sorry. It was the first thing that came to mind… I really have no opinion about Skype sex, but I'm sure, as most sex, it can be rather marvelous.
Skype sex reminds me of many things in life…how we only get a glimpse of something at first…how it's only a tiny bit of the whole, so to speak (as I imagine Skype sex wouldn't quite be as good as real sex…like, just one piece of the pie, what not the whole…)…kinda like peeking at something through a keyhole, rather than entering the room (I'm not meaning this as a metaphor…I mean it was a metaphor…but not that kind of metaphor….I just realized the other metaphor half-way through…ahem…)
It's like when you first meet a guy, or gal…they are not yet quite real…they are part real, part imagination. You know that first glimpse, when you turn your head to have another? For example people with messy hair á la Pattison catch my eye…yes, pathetic, I know…but his hair is just….ding-dong I fell on the floor as I got caught up in my heels whilst looking at you wonderful… …where was I? And that's it. Where were you? What were you thinking? It was just a glimpse…but you got all caught up in that tousled hair and that smile…and that smell…and those muscles… *sigh*
At other times we throw a glimpse at someone, and another, and another…and we take it really slow….reeeaaallllyyyy slow….not because we are trying to hold our horses, but because we are scared of what it would mean to open the gates. To really let someone inside.
And this doesn't go just for people – we fall in love with ventures, with a house, with a city…at a glimpse…or we slowly, slowly, move in that direction, frightened what it would mean to truly let go. To set our desires free and dance with the wind. To follow our passion one hundred percent. To open our heart and listen to our soul. To truly live, not in the shadow of life, but in the sunshine. Giving it our all, every moment, of every day. To dance.
Laugh…set your laughter free…let it create a symphony on its own and dance to rejoice in the music. Don't run: dance. If you cannot dance it's because you have forgotten how to relax and follow the tune, not because you cannot dance. We can all dance to the music of our heart.
I stole this photo from BBC…but I believe love 'n' laughter should be free for all…

Pains / Hold Steady
After Friday, which came after Thursday, which came after a night show on Wednesday, we said hello and goodbye to both of Red 7's stages one last time with our third and final BrooklynVegan SXSW day party at the 7th & Red River venue in Austin on Saturday (3/15).
Outside, despite the rain that plagued us that day, Palehound kicked things off with their noisy indie rock, and they were followed by the high-energy poppy punk of Cincinnati's Tweens. More poppy punk came from Northampton's Potty Mouth, and then came Mary Timony's (Autoclave, Helium, Wild Flag) riff-rockin' new band Ex Hex, who were one of the most fun bands of the day to watch. They were followed by Potty Mouth's Northampton neighbors Speedy Ortiz, who were great as always, and whose new stuff (like "American Horror") sounded great next to their older songs (like "Taylor Swift"). Wye Oak followed and previewed stuff from their upcoming guitar-less album (they did have their guitar on Saturday though), and the show closed with a super fun set from The Hold Steady.
Wye Oak
The indoor stage got off to a great start with Saintseneca, who had a tight blend of Fleet Foxes/Arcade Fire-isms, then it got weird for the UK's Fat White Family, who brought filth and fury not unlike The Stooges or The Birthday Party. (They're in NYC this weekend.) Quilt kept things trippy (but cleaner) after that, and Connan Mockasin was his eccentric self too (though he admitted he was recovering from the night before where he told everyone at Swan Dive to take their clothes off). Then came the art pop of Hundred Waters, a mostly-solo set from Braid frontman Bob Nanna which included Braid songs and some Jack and Ace action with his wife Lauren LoPiccolo, sneering Detroit post-punks Protomartyr, and finally a headlining set from the new lineup of The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, which is easily their most powerful and fun to watch yet.
Tweens / Ex Hex
Shiner beer was on special and we gave away free Jameson. Veri organic soda was free, plentiful and was there to help you rehydrate. We let in 20 people each day who were taking advantage of Esurance's SXSW-wide #EsuranceAccess program.
Maybe you won a pair of Marshall Headphones? You may have if you tagged your Instagram with #BVMarshall (you may also see one of those Instagrams featured in this post).
All the music we played between bands can be found on our Nokia MixRadio SXSW playlist. Nokia MixRadio were the ones in the pink tent outside all three days.
Indiegogo was there too, though due to the rain, like Marshall, they moved inside on Saturday.
Special thanks to all of our bands and partners and sponsors for making this party possible.
Pictures from Thursday HERE. Pictures from Friday HERE. One set of pictures from Saturday is at BV Austin. More from Saturday below...

The Hold Steady @ Red 7 - 3/15/14
The Hold Steady were just down in Austin for SXSW, where they played a number of shows ahead of their new album, Teeth Dreams, which comes out next week (3/25) via Razor & Tie imprint Washington Square. One of those shows was our free Saturday BrooklynVegan day party at Red 7, where they wrapped up that day (and the entire 3-day run of parties) with a super fun outdoor set in the sun after the morning's rain had cleared. Pictures of their set from that show are in this post.
Though we still have to wait a few days to get the new Hold Steady album, there's a full stream available to listen to now on iTunes Radio. The album has some studio shine courtesy of Nick Raskulinecz (Foo FIghters, Ghost), but even if that sort of thing bothers you these are just more great songs from a consistently great band. Check it out.

The Pains of Being Pure at Heart at The Bell House in 2009 (more by Chris La Putt)
The insanity that is SXSW is about to uproot folks from around the globe, sending them to Austin for a week to see 628 bands. While there will be great music from all around the world there, we thought, being a NYC-based website, we'd highlight ten artists from our hometown we think you should check out if you'll be there. You can listen to two tracks each from each band (who's on RDIO) in our RDIO playlist, and browse the list below.
Also check out our list of 50 artists from around the world (including four of the ones here) we're excited to see at SXSW and our SXSW metal preview (including NYC's Psalm Zero), and if you're going, we hope to see you at our official showcase, Invisible Oranges' showcase, or one of our day parties!
Check out the list and stream the playlist below...

an interview with the Hold Steady's Tad Kubler (on Brooklyn shows, crowd sourcing, the new LP, Cheap Trick & more)
The Hold Steady's Tad Kubler (in 2008) (more by Chris La Putt)
Brooklyn's own rock prophets, The Hold Steady, recently played another sold out hometown show at Music Hall of Williamsburg. The critically lauded quartet will release their sixth album, Teeth Dreams (Washington Square) on March 25. Two of its songs are already streaming online. It's a new step for the band both from a label perspective (they were previously on Vagrant) and from a creative one as well. The band's last full-length release was 2010's Heaven is Whenever, providing the longest duration between albums since The Hold Steady's inception. BrooklynVegan spoke to guitarist and founding member Tad Kubler about the new record, the pros and cons of playing Brooklyn, and the band's PledgeMusic Campaign.
BV: With Teeth Dreams coming up, this is the longest the Hold Steady has gone between albums. What's the direction like for you guys on the new record?
Tad: I don't think it's radically a different direction. I think with every new record, one of the goals I always have is to try to be more musical. You try to write better songs. And when I say "better," I mean when you're playing music, there's something you stumble across occasionally, and you have some kind of emotional response to it. And when people hear something, they'll respond to it. I guess when I say "writing better songs" it just means being more concise or something like that than having sort of self-indulgent stuff happening. There's some stuff obviously that you do because you enjoy it, it's fun, and you like doing it, and there are other things you do because you have a connection or reaction to it. Anybody that tries to do something creative or tries to grow as an artist - those are the moments you try to look for.

Cheap Girls announce new LP, share song, touring w/ Against Me! (both playing BV-SXSW); The Hold Steady post lyric video
by Andrew Sacher
Michigan's Cheap Girls have signed with Xtra Mile Recordings (who put out the new Against Me! album, and is also home to Frank Turner, Tim Barry, etc) for the followup to 2012's Laura Jane Grace-produced Giant Orange. The new album, titled Famous Graves, is due out on May 13 and was produced by Rick Johnson, who did their first two records. On its first single, "Knock Me Over," Cheap Girls are still worshipping those same '90s alt-rock radio and power pop bands (Smoking Popes, Lemonheads, etc), and their songwriting continues to progress as well. The song just premiered over at The A.V. Club, and you can check it out below.
Cheap Girls will be doing some touring ahead of the album's release, including a run with Against Me! and Laura Stevenson and the Cans. As we just mentioned, both Cheap Girls and Against Me! will play our official BV SXSW showcase with Touche Amore, The Front Bottoms, and more. In April, they'll do a short run with The Hold Steady. No NYC dates (yet?), but you can check out their full tour schedule below.
Speaking of The Hold Steady, since we last spoke, they released another single from their upcoming album, Teeth Dreams, which is due out on March 25 via Washington Square. The new track "Spinners," follows first single "I Hope This Whole Thing Didn't Frighten You," and like that one it's another dose of their literate rock, with some studio gloss courtesy of Foo Fighters/Ghost producer Nick Raskulinecz. Watch the lyric video below.

The Hold Steady at Pier 26 in July (more by Tracy Allison)
The Hold Steady are planning a new album and "endless touring" for 2014, and though details are still forthcoming on most of that, they did just announce their first eight tour dates of the new year. This run, which they're calling the "Nights Go On Forever" tour, includes a Brooklyn show on February 6 at Music Hall of Williamsburg, which, like the Pennsylvania date the next day, doubles as one of the band's 10 year anniversary shows.
Tickets for that show go on sale Friday (12/13) at noon with an AmEx presale starting Wednesday (12/11) at noon, and if you purchased the 10th anniversary show pledge in the band's new PledgeMusic campaign then you're already set to go. (That particular pledge is all gone but there's still plenty more and the band are at 208% of their goal as of this post.)
All upcoming dates are listed, along with a video, below...

The Hold Steady launch PledgeMusic campaign in honor of late fan club member (5-song covers EP included)
The Hold Steady at Pier 26 in July (more by Tracy Allison)
Fans of The Hold Steady may be familiar with their fan club, The Unified Scene. One of the best-known members of The Unified Scene was Mike Van Jura (aka Jersey Mike), who passed away last year, and in honor of him, The Hold Steady have launched a PledgeMusic campaign to help better The Unified Scene and offer fans a 5-song covers EP. I'll let the band take it from here...
Hey everyone,There's a number of rewards for different pledge amounts, and every pledge includes a digital download of the new EP. More details here.
A few years back, some of our biggest and most dedicated fans created an organization called The Unified Scene. We have seen members of The Unified Scene at our shows all over the world and it's flattering and exciting to see the community that they created.
One of the best known, most motivated and most vocal members of The Unified Scene was Mike Van Jura, or as he's better known, "Jersey Mike". Mike was the unofficial leader of The Unified Scene and handled a lot of internet and message board duties for us just as a function of his fandom.
Unfortunately, Jersey Mike passed away suddenly and unexpectedly in November 2012. Like many members of our audience, Mike had crossed from being a fan of the band to a real friend. All the members of the Hold Steady and The Unified Scene felt the loss immensely. We miss him.
The Hold Steady has always been about community and inclusiveness. As we often say at the end of our shows, "We are all The Hold Steady". We believe that.
With a new record coming out in 2014, we want to work with our fans to create a new and improved version of The Unified Scene. We want you to join us. By pledging, you will join The Unified Scene fan club, where you will get insider access, exclusive music, members-only content, pre-sale ticket opportunities and more.
For starters, we are recording a 5 song covers EP.....right now! This will be released on 12" vinyl (with download code) sometime in 2014. This will only be available to members of The Unified Scene. By pledging, you will also unlock access to updates and clues to what songs we are covering and scenes from the sessions.
Furthermore, we are offering some other exclusive incentives such as hand written lyrics, pep talks, private interactions with The Hold Steady, and much more. With the holidays coming up, these could also be great gifts for a THS fan in your life.
And don't worry.....we'll be adding even more packages in the coming days and weeks.
A portion of every pledge will be donated to the K+L Guardian Foundation to remember a great fan and friend, and to help the two young children he left behind.
We are looking forward to sharing our new record with you early next year and hope you will pledge to join The Unified Scene and become a part of something we are very excited about. And remember, we are ALL The Hold Steady.
Stay Positive!
The Gaslight Anthem & The Hold Steady (joined by Patrick Stickles of Titus Andronicus) @ Pier 26 (pics, setlists, video)

The Gaslight Anthem / The Hold Steady @ Pier 26, 7/28/2013
The Gaslight Anthem just brought their tour through NYC this past weekend for three NYC shows. We already posted pictures of the Irving Plaza show, and now we've got a set from their Sunday show (7/28) on Pier 26 with The Hold Steady.
Despite this being the show where fans chanting "BRUUUUUUCE" led Gaslight Anthem frontman Brian Fallon to write a blog post addressing their identity as a band, it otherwise went over really well. The Hold Steady, who helped lay the groundwork for bands like The Gaslight Anthem, weren't treated as "openers" by any means; they played a 16-song set (about an hour), and got tons of love from the crowd. Their set was most heavy on Boys and Girls in America and Stay Positive, and also included some new songs from an album Craig Finn told the crowd the band has been working on. And as an added bonus, Titus Andronicus frontman Patrick Stickles (whose birthday was that day) joined the band to sing lead vocals on "Cattle and the Creeping Things" (video of that below).
When The Gaslight Anthem were playing their own songs, and neither the band nor the crowd were talking about covers, the crowd was loving it. Sure, songs like "The '59 Sound" and "45" got the biggest reactions, but this was really a crowd who seemed to know every word to almost every song. They played almost all of the newest album, Handwritten, including kicking the show off anthemically with its title track, and getting the crowd grabbing their friends and swaying on "Too Much Blood." There were older favorites played too, like "Great Expectations and "We Came to Dance," and all this talk of covers aside, it seemed like everyone on and off stage had a good time during the set-ending cover of The Who's "Baba O'Riley."
More pictures and the setlists from both bands, and that video of Patrick Stickles joining The Hold Steady, below...

members of The Hold Steady, Spoon, Primitive Weapons & more opening Midwestern-themed bar in Brooklyn
A new Midwestern-themed bar, Lake Street, is opening next Tuesday (7/9) in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. The bar is run by Brooklyn musicians who originally hailed from the Midwest, including Hold Steady drummer Bobby Drake, onetime Freedom Fighters frontman Frank Bevan, Primitive Weapons bassist Eric Odness, and Spoon bassist Rob Pope. A press release about the new bar reads:
Comprised of four Midwesterners and a Northern Irishman, Lake St. brings its low-key anthem to 706 Manhattan Ave. (btwn Norman and Meserole) in the form of a classic Midwestern tavern meets local neighborhood hangout. Wanting to create a bar in Brooklyn that reminded them of the bars they loved growing up in the Midwest the space has a decidedly old bar feel as evidenced by the 80 year old bowling lane bar top and checkerboard floor. The partnership team includes members of indie rock stalwarts Spoon, The Hold Steady, Primitive Weapons, W/O., and pop culture craze boy band, The Wanted. Lake St. offers a full liquor bar, twelve taps of locals, seasonals, favorites, and an array of Midwestern canned and bottled brews. Look for special guest DJ's on selected nights on their website, twitter, and Instagram.--
The Gaslight Anthem at Deluna Festival 2012 (more by Dana (distortion) Yavin)
As mentioned, The Gaslight Anthem are going on a tour this year which hits the NYC area for shows in NJ this May and a Long Island show in June, but didn't previously include anything actually in NYC. That's changed now because the band have just announced two big summer shows happening at Pier 26 @ Hudson River Park on July 26 and 28. The first night is being opened by their Jersey punk forefathers The Bouncing Souls and the second night is being opened by their Springsteen worshipper forefathers The Hold Steady (who also play one of The Gaslight Anthem's NJ shows). Tickets for both Pier 26 shows go on sale Friday (4/12) at noon with a fan presale starting Tuesday (4/9) at 10 AM and an AmEx presale starting Wednesday (4/10) at 10 AM.
The Gaslight Anthem's other upcoming NYC-area dates include The Stone Pony in Asbury Park on 5/25 with The Hold Steady (sold out) and 5/26 with The Felice Brothers, and The Paramount in Huntington, NY on 6/9 with Tift Merritt. Tickets for the Stone Pony show with Felice Brothers and the Paramount show are still available.
Updated dates are listed, along with a video, below...

The Gaslight Anthem announce East Coast dates, NY-area shows w/ The Hold Steady, Felice Brothers & Tift Merritt

Tickets to those shows are currently on artist presale and go on general sale on Friday (3/22) at 10 AM.
Tift Merrit will be joining The Gaslight Anthem on a bunch of their dates, but if you'd like to see Tift Merritt in NYC much sooner, as mentioned, she plays The Ecstatic Music Festival at Merkin Hall on Thursday (3/21), which is a collaboration with Simone Dinnerstein. Tickets are still available.

The Hold Steady to perform "The Bear and the Maiden Fair" for 'Game of Thrones' Season 3 (which returns this month)
by Bill Pearis
The Hold Steady @ Beekman Beer Garden, Sept. 2011 (more by Amanda Hatfield)
Last year, after The National recorded "The Rains of Castamere" for Season 2 of HBO's Game of Thrones, we wondered if Bon Iver might, Season 3, do "The Bear and the Maiden Fair" which is another popular song sung often in George R.R. Martin's Song of Ice & Fire novels. Turns out GoT producers have tapped The Hold Steady to record a version of that tavern favorite, that features music written by the show's composer, Ramin Djawadi.
Audio hasn't been released yet and they haven't announced when it will be used but, if I had to guess, it will be used in Season 3's penultimate episode which is being scripted by George R.R. Martin himself. The track, will, however, be released as a 7" single for Record Store Day. The third season of Game of Thrones (based on the first half of Martin's novel, A Storm of Swords, maybe the most action-packed of the books) premieres March 31 and the trailer can be watched below.

"Lucero just tearing up Brooklyn Bowl, they may be the best band in America right now... yes they are that good" - DJ Rich Russo (The Peak)
Lucero at Brooklyn Bowl (via John Brown)
Lucero kicked off their four-night New Year's Even run with Brooklyn Bowl shows on Friday (12/28) and Saturday (12/29) before hitting Boston with The Hold Steady on Sunday (12/30). Videos from both nights are below.
Then on New Year's Eve, Lucero joined The Hold Steady to ring in the new year at Wellmont Theatre in Montclair, NJ. After The Hold Steady played "Barfruit Blues" it turned midnight and they welcomed in the new year, continuing with the bulk of their set in 2013. The Hold Steady's set was interrupted due to a crowd member who needed to be rushed to a hospital, but they picked things back up soon after. Their setlist and a video from that night are below. Comedian Kurt Braunohler opened the night.
All videos and setlist are below...

Love it or loathe it, New Year's Eve is coming. Here are some of this year's NYC concert options, of which there are many.
One of the biggest shows of the night is Coldplay and Jay-Z at Barclays Center. If you've seen pictures of Coldplay's tour this year, you know they have this bluetooth controlled, light-up wristbands that (no matter how you feel about their music) makes for a spectacular interactive experience. And certainly Jay-Z will throw a good party at his own house.
Jay-Z's pal Kanye West is doing a three-night run in Atlantic City right before NYE (12/28-30) at Revel. Tickets for those shows are still available.
Another hip hop option includes Nas at Radio City Music Hall that also features Elle Varner. Tickets are still available.

Night 2 (aka NYE) is sold out but night 1 is still on sale.

Tickets (more info at that link) are on sale and RSVP is open. Location will be revealed with the purchase of tickets or an RSVP.
If you'd rather dance to classic soul and R&B, there's New York Night Train Annual Dusk Till Dawn New Year's Ball at Home Sweet Home featuring a live performance from Kid Congo and the K-Holes, plus Jonathan Toubin and a crew of DJs.
For the indie rock inclined, you could go see Titus Andronicus at Glasslands which is a pretty small venue for them these days.

Craig Finn lists his top 10 albums of 2012, appearing at 'Soundtrack Series' at LPR (and New Year's Eve in NJ)
Craig Finn w/ The Hold Steady in NYC in 2011 (more by Amanda Hatfield)
Listen to the references he makes in his lyrics or read an interview with him and you know that Craig Finn (of The Hold Steady) has a wide range of taste, and that isn't lost on his list of the top ten records of 2012, which bounces from underground rapper El-P to folk legend Bill Fay to non-stop rockers Japandroids. Of the list, Craig says, "A lot of my friends made really great records this year. To keep myself sane, I've created a list of my top ten records by people I don't know personally. Compiled quickly, probably with some ommisions." You can check the whole thing out below.
Craig will be taking part of the Soundtrack Series in NYC at Le Poisson Rouge this Friday (11/30) along with Cynthia Kaplan, Jenny Rubin, Daniel Ralston, Steve Zimmer, and host Dana Rossi. The event description reads, "Five artists-writers, comics, actors and musicians-tell the stories they forever connect with songs from their past. There's the song, the story behind the song, and the story inspired by the song. We're the third one." Craig will be doing his on "I Will Dare" by the Replacements. Tickets for that are on sale now.
Meanwhile watch Craig on the Chris Gethard show TONIGHT (11/28).
As mentioned, The Hold Steady will play Wellmont Theatre on New Year's Eve with Lucero. Since we last spoke, comedian Kurt Braunohler has been added to that bill as well. Tickets for the show are still available.

The surgery was recommended by Dr. James Andrews after he confirmed the original diagnosis of a tear in his labrum. Garcia will have the surgery performed by the Cardinals team doctor and attempt to return to the team next season. Garcia was 5-2 with a 3.58 ERA this season before he visited with doctors to talk about his shoulder pain. The Cardinals will place Tyler Lyons in Garcia's rotation spot. Lyons, 25, has made eight starts at Triple-A compiling a 4.47 ERA and 1.40 WHIP. When Jake Westbrook returns from his elbow inflammation he should replace Lyons.

KHL Medveščak Zagreb (cro. Ice Hockey Club Medveščak Zagreb) is a Croatian ice hockey team. It is the most successful and popular ice hockey team in Croatia. The team plays in the Bobrov Division in the Kontinental Hockey League for the 2014-15 season. The team's namesake is derived from the location of its original arena in Gornji Grad – Medveščak.
The team was established in 1961, from the team SD Zagreb. In its first ten seasons in the Yugoslav Hockey League, Medveščak solidified as the second most popular team in Zagreb to football team Dinamo, playing their games in an outdoor rink in the upper-class neighbourhood of Šalata, with a draw of around 5,000 spectators a game. In 1971 the team moved into an indoor rink in Zagreb called the Dom Sportova, with the capacity to hold up to 6,400 fans. Over the first two decades of their existence Medveščak middled in success however never won the Yugoslav championship and by the early 1980s was mired in a financial crisis to almost suffer relegation from the top league in 1985.[1]
The following season in 1986 the club was sponsored by the Gortan Building company, owned by Zdenko Gradecki, to become the de facto owners. With much needed investment, Gradecki transformed the club and recruited heavily, leading with Russian Hall of Famer, Vyacheslav Anisin. By the late 1980s the team became the best in the Yugoslav Ice Hockey League, winning three consecutive championships from 1989, culminating with an appearance in the 1991 IIHF European Cup in which they progressed to the second round.
With the dissolution of Yugoslavia in 1991, Gortan Building company along with a host of sponsors plunged into financial crisis and pulled out of their backing of the team. Without funding, the club lost its best players and professional status left to compete as an amateur outfit in the Croatian Ice Hockey League.[2] However, from the late 1990s to late 2000s the team would dominate the league, winning almost every championship. Medveščak strengthened its position in the 2000s in establishing a farm team, KHL Medveščak II. In search of more competitive play in the team also participated in the Slovenian Hockey League from 2007, finishing in second place in their inaugural season. The following season, Medvescak was by far the best team in the Slovenian league (without the best two Slovenian teams which joined Erste Bank Eishockey Liga a year earlier) during the regular season, losing only one game in regulation.
Starting in the 2009–10 season, Medveščak once again moved up in competitive level, joining the Austrian Erste Bank Eishockey Liga. In marking their moves up the professional ranks the Bears recruited North American coach, Ted Sator from fellow EBEL team Alba Volán Székesfehérvár.[3] With a commitment to continue to participate in the Croatian Ice Hockey League playoffs, Medveščak made their Austrian debut in front of a sellout crowd at the Dom Sportova in a 6-5 victory against Slovenian member HK Acroni Jesenice on 11 September 2009.[1] The Bears drew over 200,000 spectators throughout the season home games and were rewarded as the last team to qualify for a position in the Playoffs. In their inaugural season, they stunned top seeded Graz 99ers in the Quarterfinals in win in 6 games, before suffering elimination to eventual champions EC Red Bull Salzburg in the semi-finals.
On 14 and 16 September 2012, Medveščak hosted its first two home games of the 2012–13 EBEL season at the Pula Arena. The first game in a 3-2 loss to HDD Olimpija Ljubljana and the second game against the Vienna Capitals which resulted in a 4-1 win. After the second game, KHL President Alexander Medvedev said that the club might join the KHL next season along with Hockey Milano Rossoblu from Italy.[4]
On 29 April 2013, the club board has announced that Medveščak will join KHL in season 2013-14.
On 6 September 2013, The Bears opened their premiere season in the KHL with a 7:1 victory against CSKA Moscow. [5]
UNICEF Partnership[edit]
On 24 August 2010, KHL Medveščak formed an official partnership with UNICEF, becoming the first and only European hockey team to cooperate with UNICEF, joining prestigious sporting clubs FC Barcelona, Manchester United F.C. and Boca Juniors from Argentina. The Bears were selected after success in its inaugural season in the EBEL, hosting more than 200,000 spectators watching live matches without a single incident, and its support for the campaign organised for emergency relief in Haiti. Under the co-operation between Medveščak and UNICEF, the Bears will actively work on the campaign to Stop Violence Among Children and will wear a UNICEF sleeve logo and change the club's blue logo color to that of UNICEF's cyan at joint events.[6]
Medvescak sponsors include companies such as: Podravka, Citroen, Generali, Lidl, Carlsberg Croatia and others.

1 bunch radishes
good quality bread, such as an artisan baguette
unsalted butter
chopped fresh parsley or microgreens for garnish (optional)
An hour before serving, clean and trim the radishes and transfer to a bowl of very cold water. Let them sit for an hour; this crisps them up again if they've gotten slightly soft.
Slice and butter your bread. Thinly slice the radishes and cover the bread with radishes, overlapping slightly. Sprinkle with salt and garnish, if desired.

Video: Geico Skytypers cruise over Lake Michigan before Milwaukee Air & Water Show
I had never truly appreciated Milwaukee's lakefront until I sailed over it at 1,200 feet aboard the Geico Skytyper SNJ2 -- an aircraft used in the 1940s to train World War II soldiers for single seat Mustang fighters.
The ride lent itself to an up-close-and-personal view of the city. The pilot flew with the cockpit open at 135 mph. And while the aircraft welcomed its share of jostles, shakes and full-body thrusts while cruising over Lake Michgian, the unforgettable airborn performance stirred up ample excitement for the fleet's debut at the Milwaukee Air & Water Show this weekend. »Read Full Blog Post
Setzer brings swinging holiday cheer to Potawatomi
On the 16th day of November, Brian Setzer gave with glee: 5 sax men, 4 trumpet players, 2 backing singers...and drums dressed in tinsel, glittering.
The Brian Setzer Orchestra's Christmas show, at Potawatomi Bingo Casino's Northern Lights Theater, also had falling suds (subbing for snow), TV theme song cameos (including "The Flintstones," "Peter Gunn" and "The Andy Griffith Show") and covers from Setzer's Stray Cats rockabilly days. »Read Full Article(1)

Next Act Theatre offers solid primer on Marxism with 'Groucho'
Like the Marx Brothers' early vaudeville show, Next Act Theatre's"Groucho: A Life in Revue" is a "skule" act. It gently and congenially educates the audience about one of America's great comedians, Groucho Marx, whose remarkable career included Broadway, movie and TV hits built around his wisecracking persona.
After a brief opening sequence, this revue, written by Groucho's son Arthur and Robert Fisher, unfolds chronologically. It's sentimental in spots, but heck, you might be sentimental, too, if you were writing a show about your father and uncles. It's not warts and all, but it does acknowledge Groucho's regrets about three marriages that ended in divorce. »Read Full Article

Im a ver honest,loyal,outgoing person.Ive beat some amazing odds and i see the glass as half full and find positive in every situation.
I am a very honest,loyal,straight forward person.Sometimes a little too honest,but from life experiences ive learned that a person gains nothing by misleading another.I have beat the odds and been through some very difficult situations and that taught me the most valuable lessons.I put my friends and family above anything else and I am generaly more concerned about thier needs before my own.My friends describe me as the guy who will drop everything to help someone else.Ive also been known to be the personality of the group.I try to find the positive and funny side to everything.Ive learned that no matter how bad things might get its always easier to find the humor in it.I guess it helps me to stay positive and focused.When it comes to a relationship I look for those same or similar qualities in a woman.I cant stand negative dishonest people and really dislike a person who will make others looks bad to benifit their own agenda.Simply put,I treat people the same way I want to be treated.Im respectful ,straight forward,down to earth,and treat everyone the same untill they give me a reason not to.Its important to me that a person can share my same qualities,and care to take interest in my hobbies and interests as I would do the same for her.The most important thing in a relationship is communication, in my opinion.When that gets cut off so does the trust.Im always willing to share and leave no detail out,but again thats just me..Like I said before,honesty and loyalty are the most important thing in a relationship. On another subject,I have a huge soft spot for animals.I have 2 great dogs,2 cats(never been a cat person but they adventualy grew on me),and a 150 gallon salt water fish tank.For fun I like to do alot of things.Ilove taking the boat out on weekends,enjoy cruising around in my hotrods,believe it or not Im actually a good cook,Im very handy with any tool you can imagine.I can build anything with wood or metal.I built the motors in my boat and hotrods.Theres just something so cool about horsepower! On top I enjoy hanging with friends,going to concerts,checking out new places,and just having fun by making people laugh and keeping busy.SO,thats me in a nut shell. I have an amazing life and im looking for someone to share it with.Im looking for someone who can be open,honest,loyal,and accept me for who I am.I want a woman who will stand by me through the good and bad,can be reasonable in any situation.I have worked hard to get to where I am and want a woman who can understand and appreciate me for that.Ive been through some very difficult times and thats what gives me the drive to live everyday to the fullest.I strive to be the best person I can be and take alot of pride in that.Im not the type to play games and wont waste anyones time doing so.I have alot to offer and Im a very giving person and looking for someone to share it with.

Laem Chabang
Laem Chabang (Thai: แหลมฉบัง, pronounced [lɛ̌ːm tɕʰābāŋ]) is a city (thesaban nakhon) in Chonburi Province, Thailand. It covers the tambon Bang Lamung of Bang Lamung district, and the complete tambon Bueng, Sura Sak, Thung Su Khla and parts of Nong Kham of Si Racha district. As of 2006 it has a population of 61,801.
Laem Chabang Port[edit]
It is home to Thailand's largest port by the same name, about 25 kilometres north of Pattaya, and south of the city Chon Buri. Starting in 1988, a major development to encourage development outside Bangkok and take advantage of proximity to the Gulf of Thailand, was the Laem Chabang container port that was completed in 1991.[1] As of 2011 it is the 22nd busiest container port in the world.
