Iron Hill Brewery - Maple Shade
Online Reservations
service was good and server was friendly. food specials were enjoyable.
Great place to eat.. Consistently good, highly recommended. Tonight server was Steve.. engaging, fast and great communications.. Although everything was great in general service was the star.. Thx
Overall a very good place for family dinning or with a group of friends.
Celebrating a birthday was wonderful. Their sweet potato fries are to die for. The service is great. The selection of beer is great. Our family had a wonderful time and will be back again soon.
Amazing food and great atmosphere! Highly recommend!
Great place to hang and have a great bite to eat . Great selection of beers, and the wait staff was knowledgable. They have good low calorie selections -- 600 calories. I had the salmon and parsnips with onion jam - spicy but good. Definitely will be returning.
The Great Imperial Pumpkin Ale is a seasonal beer that wont last long! This beer sold out in under a week last year so DONT MISS IT! In fact, GO NOW!!!
great food and an excellent beer list, perfect place for any craft beer enthusiast. food options to fit any style as well. vibrant bar scene or nice dining ambiance, your preference.
Iron Hill is not "fine" dining but it is "fun" dining. The menu is huge with something for everyone. The fun is the selection of beer. We had the beer sampler which includes eight 4 oz. glasses to try their different brewed in-house beers. Stick with basic bar food for dinner and you can't go wrong. The calamari, chopped salad and onion soup were very good. Our server, Leslie, was terrific and very knowledgable about beer.
Not much to say other than another solid meal. While the menu is perhaps a bit overpriced, it's still great for the food an combination of great beer. Our service was quick and attentive, and our food was perfect. Only two criticisms I have at this point are that the restaurant as a whole can be noisy at times, and the AC always seems to be cranked too high. But nothing that is worth mentioning to management or would prevent me from coming back.
It was our first time there. Our waitress was very helpful in describing and recommending the entrees and craft beers. She continued to check with us throughout our time there and made us feel at home. The food was very good and not the standard fare that most serve. It was also served piping hot like home cooked. The only negative that I feel is that the the entrees are probably a couple of dollars on the high side compared to other area restaurants and would prevent us from going more often as a family. We will probably only be able to make occasional visits for my wife and myself instead of the entire family.
We have never had a bad meal here. I recommend reservations any day of the week, because it's a popular place. The service is good. It's a bit loud, though.
I have to say Iron Hill has delicious food like cheesesteak egg rolls and Margarita pizza. However, the fish in the fish and chips was not only bland but extremely greasy. The sweet potato fries were good and the Apple crisp was as well, but I think I may try another dessert next time.
The pumpkin and grilled chicken quesadilla with pumpkin beer was quite a treat!! Very good combo.
There were four people in our party and we were all on special diets. Our server was very accommodating to our needs which was very much appreciated! We especially appreciate your gluten free menu. Thank you!
Iron Hill it's definitely a favorite of mine. They have a ton of food options and I have yet to be disappointed in anything I've eaten there. And the beer selection is great. They brew on site and are constantly changing the draft list to feature new seasonal beers. Plus, they have 5 or 6 house beers that are always available and are equally as good. It can get busy during peak hours, but the bar area is always seat yourself so if you don't mind hunting a bit you can usually grab a table fairly quickly. Otherwise you may find yourself waiting 45 minutes to an hour. But it's well worth the wait.
This is our very favorite restaurant - it is both fun, yet not too loud, and can be romantic or a sports bar. The food is excellent and the beer is our favorite. I can never decide so I always get a sampler - that is half the fun is trying all the beers out. If your in the area, this is a must place to go to.
Everything was great. Drinks were cold, and flowing. Food was cooked properly, and to perfection.
I came to have a dinner meeting and requested a "quiet" table and was pleasantly accommodated - everything was exceptional and our waitress was awesome - I spoke to the manager to let him know how awesome she was and I will definitely be back!!
The food was absolutely delicious and our waitress was courteous and helpful. We visited our children in Wyndmoor and they took us to an iron hill by them. So impressed we dined in maple shade and was totally satisfied again. Thanks for the good food
We enjoyed dinner at the Iron Hill Brewery. We were surprised with an offering of the Octoberfest menu in September. The offerings were great, we tried two of the Octoberfest appetizers. The Octoberfest Eggroll (filled with bratwurst) was the standout and it was delicious. We tried two different versions of "octoberfest" meatloaf. Both were outstanding. Two of our diners had the three meat Octoberfest platter (Knockwurst, bratwurst, and pork loin) also delicious. Everyone enjoyed their meal and we will be returning again. This restaurant is one that can be enjoyed as a couple or with a group, including children.
My 9-year-old daughter wanted to go to Iron Hill Brewery after she went to dinner there with a friend's family. We weren't disappointed. The kids menu was creative and included healthy items and side dishes. My daughter loved Iron Hill's chicken pot pie. My husband had a prix fix menu that included a specialty beer. The food was terrific and fresh. The selection of beers were great, too. Our server must have been new and he wasn't very attentive. At one point we had two food runners bringing us bowls of soup. The gave us the soup on the house since we ordered only one not four. The Eagles were playing on TV in the bar and bar crowd didn't disturb our meal although we could hear them. We will go back, but we won't expect decent service.
My husband and I went to Iron Hill for our anniversary dinner. We had a wonderful time. We made reservations and were seated exactly on time. Our waitress was awesome! She was knowledgable and friendly. The food was yummy! The only thing I would say is we went at night and sat at a table by a window. Every time a car pulled into a spot or pulled out, we were blinded. I think blinds would be a great addition on these windows.
We would return because our visit was pleasant and the food was good..
My wife and I ate at the bar after getting a babysitter for our three kids. Amazing servcie, with knowledgeable bar staff. They had a very nice selection of beer from IPA's to maltier selections. We spit the tuna poke appetizer, a lamb meatball pizza and a chocolate brownie dessert with bourbon pecan ice cream. All wonderful. Also, and importantly, we were not rushed. A wonderful experience.
You can bring your whole family together here and enjoy the great dishes that is offered and the list for beer is not boring
Overall a very enjoyable experience. The staff was friendly, drinks were good and food was even better. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone no matter the occasion.
We were having dinner with friends who we haven't seen in a while and wanted to have a nice night and catch up. The waitress was very friendly and accomidating. She let the guys have several samples of different beers before they made their choice. Even though my girlfriend and I were not drinking beer, she even brought us samples of the Blueberry beer. I have to say, I'm not a big beer drinker but the blueberry beer was excellent, and I would even consider ordering that next tme. The atmosphere was fun but not too loud to make it difficult for us to talk. Some restaurant/bars are so loud you can't carry on a conversation with your group. That definitely was NOT the case here. The food was excellent. I hope to return very soon.
Consistently good food, service, and reasonably priced
As always, love the food here! The lamb meatballs were a new try for us, and they were GREAT - just wish the order was bigger for the price. The Cinderella's Carriage beer is a must try!
I have been to Iron Hill in Maple Shade a few times now. I have been pleased each time. The servers are always polite, knowledgeable and enjoyable to converse with. The food is always more than satisfying and I always look forward to my next visit, hopefully it will happen soon.
We dined here with a party of 6. The beer list was much longer than the last time we came. The experience was great. Food and drink was a little bit pricey, but not overly so. Everyone was satisfied with their appetizers and entrees and more than happy with their drinks. We would definitely come back again.
I had been here once before years ago and had absolutely forgotten about it afterward. Not becuase it was not good, but because there are so many other places to try and the first time we had a screaming baby in the room which did not make the experience great. I don't blame the restaurant, I blame the parents on that one. Having children I understand they cry, but would always leave the room mine was not a happy camper. We were looking for somewhere to go for a birthday dinner and I saw an add somewhere and decided to head back. The food was very good, steaks done perfectly, staff was excellent and my husband loves all the beer choices. It is a tad noisey in the dining areas but not horrible. We will return again.
Loved all the seasonal beers to try with the sampler. All of the entrees were perfect and so were the kids meals!
We had a great dinner experience. Both the service and food were excellent. We made a reservation and were seated within two minutes of the desired time. We naturally enjoyed the seasonal beers. I would definitely go again.
The Food Server was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. Food was fantastic and came out at a reasonable rate, despite the high crowd volume. Iron Hill is, without a doubt, one of my favorite dining experiences in the Maple Shade/Cherry Hill area.
Iron Hill is one of our family favorites. We always enjoy eating and drinking here. You can't go wrong!
Love making reservations at a place that is mobbed and walking right in while everyone else waits for a table. Great that iron hill actually held the table versus just giving us the top of the wait list that many places do when they are very busy. Great food quality. Cheese steak egg rolls. Fish and chips for our toddler. Roasted chicken, and scallops. Overall great time. We'll be back.
While Iron Hill is a chain, and there are plenty of similar casual dining spots in the area, this is still one of the best combinations of solid food, great beers and even kid-friendly options. Everyone always finds something they like. It has also become a popular "business" dining lunch for me when looking for someplace in the area. I know the atmosphere will be good, service usually strong, and the lunch fare--salads, sandwiches, etc.--are very good. In this instance, I did forgo beer for iced tea, but it was not easy. The sashimi tuna salad was excellent. Iron Hill is perfect when you want "American-style" that is a step up from a Friday's or Ruby Tuesdays. It is more polished and stronger than PJs.
despite one of our party being given the wrong entree (and charged for the wrong entree), every part of our experience was great. our waiter was terrific and made our experience that much better.
This brewery always does a great job of describing the beers they have on tap. sweet potato fries and the 4 dipping sauces are a delicious side/app. i had the beet salad and it was a small size, but tasty. not a cheap place, but worth it to spend once in a while for a cool scene. we sat at a table of 5 in the bar and it was very fun and we got 2 growlers of beer to go. server was energetic and remembered all the drink and food orders.
The service was wonderful. My dinner was delicious and my husband and friend both enjoyed theirs, we were not rushed out and were able to have conversations. We had reservations and were seated immediately, which is really nice.
We were seated promptly using our Open Table reservation. The place was packed. We planned a mini pumpkin pub crawl and Iron Hill was our second stop, PJ Weilihans was the first. Our waitress was excellent as was the food and of course the beer..
Iron Hill never fails to deliver! Friendly staff, creative menu, fresh and delicious food. We try to vary our choices, but it's difficult to do -- we each have our favorites that are hard to pass up. Great for a family party, too. Wish the noise level was better managed, though.
I met a colleague for lunch and it was a very pleasant experience. The service was good, the food was tasty and nicely presented. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and look forward to a return visit.
There were four of us. First, I have to commend the host staff. Very friendly and accommodating. We shared appetizers, tuna, grilled asparagus, homemade chips, and beets with bleu cheese. All fantastic, but could have been a bit more to each plate. Dinners of sea bass and filet were very good, but filet not advertised as petit, but served as such. Meatloaf very good. Still a bit hungry after dinner. Crème Brule very good. All in all, food excellent, but a bit skimpy on portion size. For those of not who are not weight conscious, a heartier serving would have been appreciated. All in all, a great place for a special occasion or a night out with friends, but a bit pricy for what you get.
New beers regularly plus their standards on tap always fantastic. Great menu with choices for everyone, including a large kids menu. Reasonable prices too!
Enjoyed the excellent beer Sampler!! Burgers were great and mussels too!!
I eat here at least once or twice a month - service is always good, food is great, atmosphere is just right. No complaints at all!
Celebrated my birthday with family. Food and beer are both fantastic. Gluten free menu is delicious, especially the chocolate torte!!

Scarlett Johansson & Nate Naylor Split (Report)
First Published: October 15, 2012 4:47 PM EDT Credit: Getty Images
LOS ANGELES, Calif., -- Hot couple Scarlett Johansson and Nate Naylor are no longer love birds!
After about a year of dating, the couple reportedly decided to split within the last week, a source close to the couple told Us Weekly.
The couple – who reportedly met through mutual friends — was first photographed in February 2012 when they had been dating for about five months.
In the May issue of Vogue, Scarlett opened up about dating the non-celebrity.
"It might be very strange to him."
"It's an adjustment — I mean, it's got to be an adjustment for him way more than it was for me at nineteen. But he's remarkably good about it," she added about Nate in the Vogue issue.
Rumors of their split first surfaced last month when the actress' rep denied rumors of the sexy star holding hands with former fling Jared Leto at the Democratic National Convention.
Prior to Nate, the Oscar nominee had divorced from Ryan Reynolds back in 2010 and rebounded in 2011 with Sean Penn.
They were last spotted together in Paris on a vacation getaway back in August.

A U.S. appeals court on Tuesday found California's gay marriage ban unconstitutional in a case that is likely to lead to a showdown on the issue in the U.S. Supreme Court. Proponents of the ban said they would appeal the ruling, and the Protect Marriage coalition that sponsored the ban called the judgment "out of step with every other federal appellate and Supreme Court decision." The appeal is likely to keep gay marriage on hold pending future proceedings.

Brian K. Henry, 18, one of the survivors of the crash, is comforted by a mourner at the funeral. He served as a pallbearer
WARREN, Ohio (AP) — Hundreds of mourners flocked yesterday to the first of six funerals for the teenagers killed when an SUV crashed last weekend in northeastern Ohio.
Kirklan Behner, 15, was remembered for his charismatic personality, The Vindicator newspaper of Youngstown reported.
Family and friends said Behner, a ninth-grader, loved to make others laugh and was known to shovel snow or carry groceries to help his neighbors.
Warren Mayor Doug Franklin said he worked alongside Behner on two different cleanup projects.
"He had something that caused adults to gravitate to him," Franklin said. "He had a joyful spirit that was contagious. From that point on, I felt like he was a part of my family."
Behner and five other teens drowned on Sunday when a speeding sport utility vehicle struck a guardrail and flipped into a swampy pond in Warren, about 50 miles southeast of Cleveland.
Authorities said the 19-year-old driver didn't have a valid license. Her funeral is scheduled for today.
Four other teenage boys also died. Their funerals are planned between Sunday and Tuesday.
The Rev. Anthony L. Davis of Genesis Christian Community Center said he questioned God about why Behner died so soon.
"God had to remind me that his time ain't like our time," Davis told mourners. "He also had to remind me that he doesn't take everyone through the same process of promotion. God said I have something better than just a high-school diploma."

What Makes Wing Chun Kung-Fu "The Science of Self-Defense"?
7 comments:
- Jim said...
Another great piece Eric. Comes at a good time for me as I've had a break from JKD for a year following a move and looking for something locally based. In a strange example of synchronicity I had a very vivid dream last night in which I was sparring with win chun techniques against a person unknown to me. Quite peculiarly he looked the spitting image of the blonde fella in the first clip! First site I visited after waking was yours and-hey presto!
I've just read Spiritual Science for the second time and I'm convinced it will grow in popularity and importance and have been promoting it as such. I've had a break from my own blog for a year while I have followed other pursuits but ready to return. My first piece will be a review on this remarkable book which has recently inspired me to heavily research NDE's, quite an incredible topic.
Continued thanks for all that you do sir.

Wow, thanks so much Jim, that was really nice to read. I really appreciate that you'd read Spiritual Science twice and help me out with a review too! Crazy synchronicity too, another AC reader just relayed some amazing synchronicities to me this morning too... hopefully all those mean we're on the right path! :) If anyone else would be so kind as to write a review for Spiritual Science on Lulu or Amazon it would help me out biiiiiiiig time! Thanks so much in advance to anyone that can spare a few minutes for a review. Peace

hard to really appreciate these videos cause these guys make it look so easy and effortless. It almost looks like they are coordinating it on purpose.
do you think you could beat kimbo slice in combat?
He is like Zanghieff from street fighter big and strong but with no real martial arts moves. I'd be curious to see some wing chun used in a street fight!
- April 18, 2013 at 2:47 PM
- Eric Dubay said...
Hey Goskinsgo, I can assure you they are not "coordinating it on purpose," this is just the level of sensitivity you can develop through using the Wing Chun system. Kimbo Slice would be quite a challenge for anyone but I could definitely give him a run for his money :) Wing Chun is Chinese street fighting. Here's a few videos of Wing Chun used in street fights and against other martial arts:

The other night Ariel came in wearing a princess dress and yellow girly shoes. She looked adorable, but I was confused. She told me, once again, that she wanted to be in a pageant. She does not want to do a glitz pageant. She wants to do one where she does not have to dress up very much or wear a lot of makeup because "I do not like to wear that stuff, especially because I will have to wash my face." She is being very insistent upon being in a pageant. I am not a fan. However, I did find one locally that will be in November that is supposed to be "natural" and not geared toward solely competing on "looks" and over-the-top "talents."
All right, if it comes to town we will attempt it so she can finally experience it.
She really wants to try it and thinks she could win. However, I know how these things work so I wanted to make sure that she would be ok if she does not. I asked her again about not winning, because we have had this conversation before.
Our conversation yesterday:
Me: Will you be ok if you do not win?
Ariel: Yes, I will be fine.
Me: Are you sure? You do know that if you did not win it has nothing to do with how pretty you are or what kinds of talents you have, right?
Ariel: I know, I know. Look, I just want to try it.
Me: Ok, I just wanted to make sure.
We talked a little more about it.
She has a healthy mindset about herself and thinks that it would be fun to try. She also wants to watch the other kids and thinks that it would be, "really cool" to see what they do. I know that I am overly sensitive. I know that I am overly concerned, but I am also aware of how cruel little girls and their mothers can be. I also know that my past experiences influence me to be highly protective. (Plus David hates them… hate is actually not even close to how much he loathes pageants.) I think that I need a healthy perspective and realize that keeping her or the boys from trying things is not good. They have to experience life – I know this. However, I am very cautious! I was in a pageant once even though I did not win I am glad that I did it. I ended up having fun and got to experience some really cool things.
I promised her that if they have it here we would do it.
I found this request confusing though because for the past three weeks Ariel has been dressing in her brothers clothes and saying that she wants to be a boy. I did not think much of it the first week. I used to wear boys clothes all the time not when I was little, it was only my mother and I, but as I blossomed into my teenage years I started taking my step dads clothes. When my great-grandfather died, my grandma let me go through his clothes and I took many of his button down shirts and boxers. When I was around 10 and 11-years-old my favorite attire was polo type shirts, and long sleeve button down shirts with jeans or slacks and tennis shoes. (Or penny loafers I loved penny loafers!)
The boy's clothes look a lot like what I wore.
When she started to refuse to wear her own clothes and underwear that is when I started thinking more about it. Now I wanted to understand where she was coming from so I asked her why she was wearing her brothers clothes and why she wanted to be a boy. I am very thankful that Ariel can express herself so well. She explained to me that she "finds boy clothes more comfortable than girl clothes." She also explained to me that, "I feel like a boy sometimes because I like to do a lot of boy things. I like Lego's and computer games and to get dirty and stuff."
I told her that I like to do a lot of boy type things too.
I also told her that I like to wear boy clothes too because they ARE more comfortable much of the time. She stopped for a moment and thought about what I said. I told her that I was a mix of girly and boyish, and I asked her if that was how she felt too. She said yes and liked the idea of being "girly and boyish." I did not press too much on the topic, but she did reveal that she very much feels like a girl who likes many boy things. Aww, yes, she is my little girl. I let her go and parade around in her boy clothes being herself the last few weeks. The last several days I noticed she started to mix in her clothes again. I did not say anything.
It seemed rather drastic when she came in with her dress on the other night.
Then, I thought about it some more and I realized that I do the same thing. I will go for long periods of time wearing certain types of clothes that could seem rather dull for a woman's wardrobe and all of a sudden I feel like getting prettied up and wearing something nice. Or I will decide that I want to wear my red heels around the house with my black yoga shorts and tank top. Or boots, or a dress! I will feel like wearing make-up… (Not much, of course) and then it's gone.
When I was growing up, I was told that I needed to look a certain way.
I was supposed to wear certain types of clothes. My mother never told me what to wear, but she commented often that I did not look my best. She wanted to dress me up, I loved wearing dresses and refused to wear anything else at one time in my young life, but I also was running around doing flips and playing in the dirt as I wore them. I decided to start wearing shorts underneath because my mom would always yell at me saying, "Little ladies do not show their panties. Little ladies do not sit like that. Little ladies do not do that in dresses." It was clear I was no little lady. Over the years, I have learned how to fake being one. (I still wear shorts instead of slips. I hate slips!)
There are no limitations to how I want to dress and what I want to do.
It is ironic that my mom is very much the same way, but she loves fashion and has a very sharp style. She likes that and she ended up with my sisters and me. None of us are girly girls. I am happy that Ariel feels comfortable enough to wear and act the way she feels. I am happy that she feels comfortable enough to talk to me about it and knows that there is no judgment. The boys tend to go into their, "I want to be a girl" moments as well, but they do not want to wear girl clothes. I just let them them be and let them share with me why they want to. It seems a bit like black-and-white thinking because they say they want to be a girl when they are doing things that they perceive as what girls like to do and vice versa. Who knows really, as long as they feel able to express themselves that is all I care about. I am not one to fall for typical male/female gender roles.
I guess that is reflective in my kids as well.
On another note… We went to another park. I am loving the fact that there are so many places to go around here. We went to a park that my mom and I used to go to a lot when I was child. That particular playground was not there when I was little. It is right by the dam. There is a walking/bike trail as well that leads up to the old dam which is very high up and steep. I have not been there in a very long time and I am not sure if it is still as unsafe as it was when I was a child. It had a chain link going across as a means to stop people from going over the edge. I am sure it is much more secure now. I hope! We are going to check out the trail soon. The kids are so happy with all of these parks too.
Happy pictures.

Foreigners use Kumgangsan Hotel
North Korea is allowing foreign groups to use some South Korea-developed facilities at the Mt. Geumgang resort, the site of a stalled cross-border project, but business remains sparse, a recent visitor there said Thursday. The resort once brought droves of South Koreans to facilities developed under an exclusive deal between the North and South Korean firm Hyundai Asan. But amid persisting tension over the 2008 shooting death of a tourist, Pyongyang said it would legally dispose of the facilities and would establish a zone for international tours. An international tourist who recently visited said groups are allowed to stay at the Kumgangsan Hotel and are also given access to a restaurant and hot springs facility. Gift shops and a duty-free shop were opened up after tourists inquired about them. "Besides a few Chinese tourists at the hotel, the resort was quiet," the tourist told The Korea Times, asking to remain anonymous. "They said they were expecting more people in the fall to see the foliage." Though Hyundai Asan did not build the hotel, it owns the right to operate it under the tourism contract. The tourist added that while being allowed access to the indoor portion of the hot-springs facility, the outdoor portion appeared unused and suffering from a lack of upkeep. The use of the facilities has been unclear since the North last year expelled the last remaining South Korean workers at the site. Since then, it opened a monthly cruise from the northeastern city of Rajin expected to bring Chinese tourists. The moves are the latest hurdles to any resumption of the project, which was suspended after Park Wang-ja, a 53-year-old South Korean housewife was shot dead by a North Korean soldier on July 11, 2008 after she apparently crossed into a military area. Seoul says such moves breach inter-Korean agreements and those between Pyongyang and Hyundai Asan. While it has proposed working-level talks to address the matter, the North has yet to respond. Such use would "violate the contract and is not proper," a spokesperson from the Unification Ministry said. "The North should abide by the contract. We cannot accept this behavior." The South wants a formal apology and security measures before tours resume, tackling concerns the North claims it has already addressed. Yoo Ho-yeol, a North watcher at Korea University, said Seoul or Pyongyang will likely wait until the next South Korean administration takes office before budging. "The next president will want to distinguish him or herself from the current government on big issues. As it is a major symbol or reconciliation, working to resume the project would be a good way to do that," he said. "Pyongyang wants the cash it brings in." The sides launched the joint tour program in 1998 to foster reconciliation and cooperation. For the North, the project was a source of hard currency. |

Michael Winans Jr. sentenced to 13 years in prison for ponzi scheme
Category: News Briefs - Original Published on Thursday, 28 February 2013 07:00 Written by Britney Spear, Regional Content Editor
A member of gospel music's most recognized families is headed to jail.
On Wednesday, Feb. 28 Michael Winans' Jr. was sentenced to nearly 14 years in prison for an $8 million financial scam that left his victims penniless and in despair.
U.S. District Judge Sean Cox showed no mercy, asserting that as an long-time member of the Church, Winans knew right from wrong.
Making matters worse, Winans reportedly used the pulpit and his family's name to reel supporters in. He falsely promised them a lucrative payoff for investing in Saudi oil bonds. One victim took the stand to tell his story of losing nearly $100 thousand, stripping him of his life savings, his marriage and even relationships with family members.
Winans apologized in court, acknowledging the wrongfulness of his actions. While he alleged that he had no "malicious intent", he also admitted to continuing to collect money when he learned the bond was bogus.
Between 2007 and 2008, Winans attracted nearly 1,000 investors, many of them through word of mouth. In classic 'ponzi scheme' fashion, he relied on relationships with friends to lure in financial backers. Winans promised quick returns, taking people's money and using it for personal expenses and to pay off others who had invested earlier. When failure became apparent, Winan's system helped relieve him of the blame. Many who were duped began to lash out against those who recruited them.
Over 50 letters from victims were sent to Judge Cox, chronicling Winans' scheme and its terrible effects on their lives.
Winans, 30, is a third-generation member of the famous family. His father, Michael Winans Sr. is a member of the Winans brothers' quartet. Winans Jr. is a performer in his own right. He was a member of Phase II, a group composed of him and his cousins. In 2011, he released an album called ' My own genre'.
Unfortunately, the prospect of a successful music career appears far off the distance as Winans anticipates spending much of the rest of his life behind bars.

Some owners say it's been difficult to get the repair kit.
This post comes from James Limbach at partner site ConsumerAffairs.com.
The recall of more than 2.1 million Stork Craft drop-side cribs, including about 147,000 Stork Craft drop-side cribs with the Fisher-Price logo, is just the latest in a series of actions involving cribs this year.
In January, Stork Craft announced the recall of more than 500,000 cribs. And this summer, Simplicity announced it was recalling more than 500,000 cribs.
As part of the most recent recall, involving about 1.21 million units distributed in the United States and 968,000 units distributed in Canada, the Consumer Product Safety Commission is urging parents and caregivers to stop using the recalled cribs immediately, wait for the free repair kit that converts the drop side on these cribs to a fixed side, and not to attempt to fix the cribs without the kit. The recalled cribs have been linked to four deaths.
It also is advising parents to find an alternative, safe sleeping environment for their baby.
However, obtaining the repair kit has not been easy for everyone.
Don't let lack of time, fear of failure, and The Damn Dishes hinder your efforts.
This guest post comes from Kris at Cheap Healthy Good.
When it comes to eating healthier and saving money on food, we've established time and time again that few strategies are more effective than cooking at home. Making meals in your own kitchen gives you total control over nutrition, flavor, ingredient quality, and expenditures, among other things. Plus, making a mess with flour is fun.
Still, for many, home cooking is nigh inconceivable. Maybe you work 80 hours a week, and can't find 20 minutes to make a sandwich. Maybe you live in New York's East Village, where your apartment galley doubles as your bathroom and your bedroom. Maybe you never learned to cook, and are afraid of blowing $10 on a chicken, then charring it beyond recognition.
Fortunately, we here at the CHG laboratory (translation: my bathroom) have the answer.
First, we isolated a handful factors that most affect people's ability to fire up their own stoves. They are: time, space (in the capacity sense, not the extraterrestrial sense), inexperience, fear of failure, and The Damn Dishes. More than anything else, these five elements drive the average folk to takeout, restaurants, and pilfering fruit from sweet old ladies.
How many Bahamas vacations could you get instead? Those questions put big purchases into perspective.
In other words, what are you giving up in order to buy that Christmas gift? In economics terms, that's called the opportunity cost, and it's something people don't think about enough, Ariely said.
Ariely, a professor of behavioral economics, once went into a Toyota dealership and asked people what would they not be able to do in the future if they bought that car they were eyeing.
"You would expect people to have an answer," he said in a video essay. "But people were kind of shocked by the question. They never thought about it before."

You can keep food costs under control and save preparation time.
This post comes from Trent Hamm at partner blog The Simple Dollar.
Recently, several couples in our community started a frozen-meal exchange. It's a really simple idea.
On a certain day, everyone in the exchange meets for coffee and brings along a laundry basket full of frozen meals, one for each family, along with any needed instructions taped to the lids. The club members swap the meals so that everyone takes home one of each meal that they didn't prepare.
It's a very clever idea for several reasons.
Blogger excoriates women who expect men to pay for everything.
The following story set off a thoughtful rant by "Fabulously Broke": A judge this year granted alimony to a jobless woman despite the fact that she and her husband had waived any claim to alimony when they divorced 27 years ago.
This turn of events is one of the anecdotes in an excellent Wall Street Journal story about why some lawmakers think alimony laws are sorely in need of an update. (It appears that the economy is prompting more people to seek support from spouses they divorced years ago. We should also note that a large majority of alimony payers are men.)

A dead body is never a welcome sight, but it's especially troublesome when Tadd Leventis and Declan Anagnos return home to find one in their foyer. Most people know the dead woman as a curator at the local museum, but Tadd and Declan recognize her as someone from their distant past—Athena, the Greek goddess of wisdom and strategic warfare. To Tadd and Declan, it's more than a murder. It's a threat to the mortal lives they've worked so hard to build—and a wakeup call that their immortal lives are in danger too. At Zeus's request, they once again don the mantles of Ares and Hermes, but when they start investigating their fellow Olympians, Tadd and Declan discover things are far more complicated than they seem. As the body count rises, tracking the killer becomes more dangerous, and the investigation starts to strain their relationship. Can they patch things up in time to catch the killer, or will the killer catch them first?
SHE'S beautiful even now, her dark hair spilling out in a halo around her head and her olive skin flawless and smooth. The white of her dress stands out starkly against the dark stone of the tiles, but it's the small tattoo of an owl on the inside of her right wrist and the bronze dagger protruding from her stomach that Declan notices.
"She was taken by surprise," he says, glancing over his shoulder as he crouches down for a better look. "If she'd had time to plan—"
"She never would have been killed," Tadd finishes, crouching down next to Declan. "Whoever did this knew where she was going to be."
"And who she really was." Declan reaches toward the dagger, but Tadd stops him with a hand on his wrist, his thumb brushing over the silver kerykeion tattoo there.
"I need to—"
"Declan." Tadd emphasizes the name. "We can't."
"She's one of us. It's my job."
"Not anymore." Tadd yanks Declan away from the body with enough force that only Declan's speed lets him stay on his feet. "We left that behind."
"Not entirely." Declan looks pointedly at Tadd's right wrist, where a small silver spear tattoo matches the owl on the woman's and the kerykeion on Declan's.
"Enough," Tadd says, shaking his head. "We don't even know who she is now. She doesn't look like someone who can just disappear. If we handle this and it causes problems—"
"You want to involve mortals in this?" Declan arches his eyebrow smoothly. "Really?"
"No!" Tadd snaps, tightening his grip on Declan's wrist. "I want to hurt whoever did this. But I can't. Not if we're going to keep these lives." He calms himself with visible effort. "We left that behind, so we have to deal with this as who we are now, not as who we were."
"We're still who we were." Declan pulls his wrist free. "Maybe we never should have pretended otherwise."
"It's a little late for regrets, don't you think?"
"No." Declan shakes his head as he moves toward the door. "I'm going to tell the others."
"That's an even stupider idea than involving mortal authorities."
Declan swivels with Tadd to face the new arrival, a petite brunette with her hair swept up in a loose braid. She's dressed professionally in a black A-line skirt, a white button-down shirt with three-quarter length sleeves, and a gray argyle sweater vest. Her shoes—low, wide loafer-style heels—manage to look both practical and professional, and the badge clipped to the exposed hem of her shirt reads Selene Ganis.
The tattoo peeking out from behind the silver bracelet on her right wrist is a small hunting bow.
Tadd crosses his arms over his chest as he looks her up and down. "What are you doing here?"
"Hunting. What else?"
"Here?" Tadd snarls as he steps forward, stretching up to his full height and using the fact that he towers over her by more than a foot to loom menacingly. "Why?"
Selene rolls her eyes and glares defiantly up at him. "I'm following a trail." The word idiot goes unsaid, but they all hear it. "And it's a good thing for the two of you that I am. You'd have gotten yourselves killed otherwise. Just like her."
"What do you mean? And why are you stopping us?" Declan keeps his voice calm as he steps up behind Tadd and rests his hand on the small of Tadd's back. "You don't care what happens to us. You don't like us."
"No, I don't. But whoever did this killed my sister, and the two of you are about to mess up my hunt. That I do care about."
"How will passing on the message about what happened mess up your hunt?"
"Who do you think did this? A mortal? That blade killed a god. It was wielded by a demigod at least. If you tell everyone, the killer will know you're aware of what happened, which might make you the next target."
Tadd steps away from Declan and curls his fingers into fists. "Let him come. I'll take him."
"Wouldn't he already know?" Declan paces back over to the body. "He left her here. That has to be some sort of message for us."
Selene rolls her eyes. "And this is why someone else is going to die before I catch my prey. She wasn't dumped here. She was attacked in her own home and fled here, looking for help, I guess, though I can't imagine why. You two weren't any use."
"We just got home."
"Calm down." Selene holds up a hand as she steps around Tadd, looking at him disdainfully.
Tadd clenches his fists tighter as he stalks over to stand next to Declan. "Trust me, sweetheart, if we'd been here, we would have helped. And whoever did this wouldn't have survived the encounter."
"I'm not your sweetheart," Selene says in a cool tone as she steps carefully around the body, her gaze fixed on the ground, looking for clues. "And I know you would have killed whoever did this, Ares." She looks pointedly at Tadd. "That's why Athena came here. If her killer managed to catch her in a position where she couldn't defend herself, this is the most strategic place to flee. You're the best fighter," she starts, "and you're the fastest," she finishes, swinging her gaze to Declan. "If she needed help defending herself, she would come to you. Everyone would," she adds, bitterness coloring her tone. "Did you know who she was?"
"You mean other than the obvious?" Declan casts a glance at the woman's tattoo as he asks.
"Yes. Other than the obvious. How did she know where to find you?"
"We can always find each other if we really want to. You know that. We haven't made any effort to keep ourselves concealed from those who know what to look for."
"Well, maybe you should have."
Tadd tenses under Declan's hand. "You aren't."
"I can take care of myself."
"And we can't? Is that what you're saying?"
"Tadd." Declan takes Tadd by both shoulders and spends a minute looking straight into his eyes. "Try to calm down. Please."
As Tadd sucks in a deep breath, Declan whirls and speeds over to Selene. "Stop goading him. If you want to hunt whoever did this, fine, I won't stop you. But don't come into our home and antagonize us. You're the guest here. If you dislike us that much, leave."
"Maybe I will." Selene bends down, peering intently at the woman's face and tattoo, and spends several minutes examining the dagger from every possible angle. Twice she almost touches it, bringing her hand within a hair's breadth of brushing against it, but she stops short both times. Finally she pulls back and glances coolly at Tadd before squaring her shoulders and looking at Declan. "I trust you can handle disposing of the body?"
She doesn't give him a chance to answer before she vanishes, leaving Declan staring at the empty space she'd occupied and wondering what, exactly, they'd done to deserve that.
Tadd snarls at the empty air where Selene had last been. "Well, that was pleasant."
Declan is by his side in a second. He rests his hand on Tadd's shoulder and slides it up to rub the tense muscles at the back of his neck. "Did you expect anything else?"
"No." Tadd crosses his arms, still glaring at the empty air, but his tone is slightly less sullen and he leans into Declan's soothing touch. "Not once I saw who she was. Bitch."
"Tadd." Declan withdraws his hand and steps around so he's facing the other man. "Be nice."
"I'm not nice."
"You're nice to me."
"You're different."
"Not that much." Declan smiles fondly and squeezes Tadd's arm. "She wanted to irritate you. Don't give in."
"Easier said than done." The moroseness in Tadd's expression is fading, though, and he uncrosses his arms and bumps his shoulder into Declan's before stepping closer to the body. "I'm easy to irritate."
"Well, yes, but that's part of your charm."
Tadd scowls again. Declan flashes a small smile as he moves to look down at the body as well. He lets his smile fade as he takes in the details, noting the bent knee and the broken heel of her right shoe. She's lying with her left hand tucked under her, nestled underneath her bent leg. When Declan bends down to take a closer look, this time investigating the body instead of the dagger, he notices something wedged under her knee, hidden in the folds of her dress.
Taking care that he doesn't touch anything, he pulls a pen from his pocket and teases the object out from under the flowing skirt. It's a white purse with a small wrist strap, tiny enough it could easily have gone unnoticed by anyone chasing her, and it's dwarfed by Declan's hand as he picks it up and curls his fingers carefully around the soft material so he can pull the zipper back.
"Declan." Tadd lays a heavy hand on his shoulder. "Don't touch it."
"We need to know who she is." Careful to touch as little of the material as possible, Declan looks inside and pulls free a tiny billfold that contains twenty dollars in cash, three credit cards, and a driver's license. "Sofia Tavoularis," he reads as he pulls the license free to show Tadd. "Her address is on the other side of town. We should leave the body there."
"Leave the body?" Tadd doesn't take the card, but he does peer at it over Declan's shoulder. "What do you mean?"
"We can't leave it here."
"Tadd." Declan turns around and looks the other man in the eyes. "We can't leave her here. Mortals aren't going to solve this."
"And we can't be linked to a murder, even circumstantially. Not if we want to continue living these lives."
They've spent decades building their current personas and the companies that support them, changing their mortal personas every fifteen years or so to avoid arousing suspicion. They built their firms from the ground up, taking them from small businesses to the large corporations they're CEOs of today, and they did it all the mortal way.
It's not something they're willing to give up without a fight.
"We'll need to get rid of that before you move her." Tadd crouches down next to Declan, balancing himself with one hand on the tiles as he focuses on the bronze dagger protruding from her stomach. When wielded by the right hands, it's a weapon capable of killing a god. They can't let it fall into mortal custody.
Tadd eyes the protruding hilt carefully for a moment before he pushes himself back up. "I think I have something that will work."
Declan snorts quietly as Tadd heads back into the house. Of course he does.
THE heavy chimes of the doorbell echo through the foyer as Declan curls his fingers around the graphite hilt of the dagger Tadd is holding out. It's a perfect match for the size and shape of the bronze dagger, though this one has a blade of steel and lacks the magical energy that imbues the one Tadd pulled from Sofia's stomach. This one would not have killed Athena, not even if wielded by Zeus himself, but it's exactly the kind of blade a mortal assailant would use.
Declan freezes, his fingers touching Tadd's along the hilt of the dagger and his eyes wide as he tries to fathom who could be visiting at this hour. This was supposed to be a quiet evening at home, just the two of them and a bottle of red wine. Visitors—and dead bodies—were not on the agenda.
Tadd pulls the dagger back and shifts around so he can slide it into the wound. "Go," he tells Declan, carefully setting the removed bronze blade on an old towel he brought out for the purpose. He'll have to dispose of the towel later, along with anything else that might link Sofia Tavoularis to Tadd Leventis or Declan Anagnos, but for now, it prevents the wet, sticky blood on the bronze blade from getting on their floor. "I'll take care of this."
Declan looks at him for a moment, then allows his eyes to roam to the myriad of weapons spread on the floor next to the body. Tadd had brought out multiple daggers so they could find the best match, and it had taken several minutes of comparison to determine they had a perfect equivalent.
"I'll send whoever it is away."
It's not going to be that easy. He knows it even before the doorbell rings again, but it's not for nothing that Declan is known for his speed and diplomacy. He flies to the door, wraps his fingers around the knob before the chime stops sounding, and twists, pulling the door open just enough he can stick his head through the crack. He's all fake smiles and pleasantries until his eyes alight on the short, slightly scruffy-looking blond man standing on their front porch.
"Lukas," he says, stepping through the narrow opening and pulling the door shut behind him. "What are you doing here?"
The smaller man looks taken aback at Declan's rudeness. "Uh, dinner? Tonight? Six o'clock?"
Declan blinks blankly. "Dinner?" He sounds as dumb as Selene implied he is, but he can't remember anything about dinner with Lukas tonight.
Then again, his mind is currently occupied with far more serious matters.
Lukas's eyebrows slide smoothly up his forehead. "We were going to discuss our business deal?"
"Business deal?" Declan can't remember that either. It's worrisome, but he'll focus on it later. Business deal or not, he can't have dinner with Lukas tonight.
"Are you all right?" Lukas tilts his head to the side and looks at Declan appraisingly. "You seem… stressed."
"Yeah. Just, uh…." Declan waves his hand vaguely as he tries to think of a suitably diplomatic reason to keep Lukas out of their foyer. He would likely understand the situation, and Declan is tempted to invite him in just to spite Selene, but she was right. They can't let anyone else know about Athena without endangering themselves.
"The housekeeper got sick all over the foyer," he says with a glance back toward the door. "It's a huge mess, and…." He flashes a strained smile. "Can we reschedule?"
"Of course. Call me when you're free."
"Thanks." This time, Declan's smile comes easier.
Lukas pats Declan on the shoulder, briefly exposing the sun rays on the inside of his right wrist, and heads off. "We're going to do big things together, man!"
Declan shakes his head and watches as Lukas climbs into the Bronte sport model sitting in the driveway. He waits for him to drive off before slipping back though the door, again taking care to only open it as far as necessary for him to get through. He can't see anyone around, but there's no point in taking needless risks that could expose what they're doing or who they really are.
Sofia is still sprawled on the floor exactly where Declan left her, but the knives are gone, put back into their places in Tadd's study, and Tadd is sitting on the bottom of the staircase that curves its way up to the second floor. He's lounging back in a casual pose with one leg extended to the floor, the other folded up on the step below where he's perched, and his elbows resting on the step behind that, but tension radiates from him, filling the foyer and making Declan's nerves jingle.
"Who was it?"
Declan joins Tadd on the steps, relaxing against the polished wood with his back to Sofia's body. "Lukas."
"What did he want?" Tadd's dislike of Lukas dates back to their glory days on Olympus, and Declan has never been able to convince him to play nice, despite numerous attempts. Tonight, though, he's inclined to agree with Tadd's opinion of the man. A visitor was the last thing they needed.
"He said something about dinner and a business deal."
"Tonight?" The accusation is blatant in Tadd's flat, unforgiving tone.
"Yeah." Declan rubs his hand over his face and pinches the bridge of his nose as he sighs. "I didn't schedule it. Maybe Rachel did and forgot to tell me, I don't know. I thought tonight was going to be just us."
"That worked out well."
Declan's lips twitch. "As always." He pushes himself up, his shoulders tensing as he turns back toward the body. "Is everything set?"
"She's all ready." Tadd climbs to his feet as well and follows Declan over to stare down at the body. "Be careful not to touch anything."
"I know."
"Hurry back."
"I always do."
"Don't look into things. Let Selene handle it."
"Declan." Tadd steps in front of Declan and cups his chin in both hands. "This isn't your job. Let her handle it."
Declan stares at Tadd for a long moment before he nods. "All right."
"Thank you." Tadd steps back, his hands slipping from Declan's face, but before they reach his sides, Declan catches them and holds them loosely between his own as he closes the distance between them once more.
"You're welcome," he whispers, then tilts his head and leans in to brush his lips against Tadd's.
The kiss isn't romantic. It can't be with a dead body less than five feet away, but it's heartfelt and full of promise. When they break apart, Tadd reaches up to touch Declan's cheek briefly before stepping back again and jamming his hands in his pockets. "Go."
Declan pulls a pair of black leather gloves from the shelf in the closet under the stairs and slips them on before scooping Sofia into his arms and carefully arranging her so he doesn't get any blood on his dress shirt or suit pants. "I'll be right back."
Tadd nods and opens the front door, holding it ajar so Declan, calling on his true speed for the first time in centuries, can fly out the door and carry the body across town. When mortals find it, they will never associate it with Declan Anagnos and Tadd Leventis.

Richmond Musician's Song for Autistic Children
A Richmond musician has written and released a new song. He did it to help children of military families stricken with autism.
Robbin Thompson composed "Maybe Tomorrow" after reading a post from an old friend, Nancy Alsbaugh Jackson, on Facebook.
Thompson: She was starting up a campaign to help military families with autistic children and she mentioned that they was looking for a piece of music, guided me to a link that was an interview with this woman named Karen Driscoll, whose husband was in the military, and was overseas while she was alone at home dealing with her autistic kid.
The song was written the night he watched that video. Still deeply moved by it, he told me, it's in the form of a letter.
Thompson: We met here in Richmond, right here where we're sitting, and I played the song for her, just me and a guitar, and from her reaction, you could tell that she liked it. It was one of those tearful moments that, for both of us actually, when you write a song and you see what happens at that moment, it's very emotional for everybody involved.
Watching with him I knew just what he meant. Alsbaugh Jackson, who has an autistic child, has included the song with Karen Driscoll's story on a website act today for military families DOT org.
Jackson: Autism is an epidemic, and let's help those that are hardest hit, those without resources, help their children. This could be the next Einstein, this could be the next person who discovers the cure for cancer. These kids are brilliant, but we're going to lose them if we don't get to them early enough. We don't have time to waste. We can't wait 'till tomorrow, let's make it today.
She explained that one in 110 children in America are diagnosed with autism while at the same time one in 88 children of military families are autistic and their health insurance covers only a fraction of the cost of treatment. And she noted, that in spite the resources available to her and her husband, caring for their child presented real challenges.
Jackson: Typical children are under tremendous stress when a family member is deployed, and we bring in a diagnosis of autism, can you imagine having a parent deployed in combat and having a family member at home fighting the battle for services?
The therapy requires anywhere from 25 to 40 hours a week.
Jackson: There are children recovered that actually lose their diagnosis if we get them there early enough with this treatment.
Using the website and Facebook, the hope is to raise a million dollars to support these military families with autistic.

Catherine Pritchard
Q: I'd like to audition for the new talent show "The Winner Is" but can't find any information about them. Can you help? - D.S., Spring Lake
A: It looks like the only way to get your name in play for the show right now is to submit an application and video.
The show's website says no open casting calls are scheduled at this time.
But NBC says it's still casting for "The Winner Is" - even though two episodes of the talent show have already aired and it's only supposed to last something like six or eight episodes. (We found differing information on this subject.) We're also not clear if all of this season's episodes have already been taped. Maybe the casting call is for future seasons if the show is renewed by NBC?
In any case, check thewinneriscasting.com for details. For casting info about other NBC shows, go to nbc.com/casting.
"The Winner Is" pits two sets of different singers against each other with a panel of judges deciding who wins. The twist: Before the decision is announced, the singers must quickly decide if they want to leave early with a sure-thing payment of $10,000 to $50,000 or stay in the competition with the hope of winning a $1 million grand prize. If they choose the latter, and aren't picked by the judges, they leave with nothing.
Q: Can you find a phone number for the Thom McAn shoe company? They also call them Buster Brown shoes. - F.C., Fayetteville
A: Those are actually two different shoe brands, with two different owners.
The Thom McAn brand is owned by Kmart, which itself is owned by Sears Holdings Corp. (which also owns Sears). Thom McAn used to be a standalone retail chain, as well as a shoe brand, but that ended in the 1990s.
The 109-year-old Buster Brown brand is owned by Brown Shoe Co., whose other shoe brands include Naturalizer, Dr. Scholl's, Sam Edelman, LifeStride and Franco Sarto and which operates the Famous Footwear and Naturalizer retail chains.
If you'd like to contact Kmart's customer service line, the number is 866-562-7848. You can write Sears Holdings at 3333 Beverly Road, Hoffman Estates, IL 60179.
Q: Can you provide the number for the Bicycle Man or his wife? I have two pretty brand-new bikes that I'd like to donate. - G.K., Fayetteville
A: The number is 424-3083. The program accepts bicycle donations from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at its warehouse at 1800 Wynfare Drive off John Smith Road near Hope Mills.

If you're visiting a new city on holiday or business, a cityXplorer map downloaded to your nüvi helps you get around just like a local. The enhanced pedestrian mode gives you walking directions, including footpaths and shortcuts through parks, with landmarks indicated along the way. The public transport mode tells you where to catch trains, buses and tubes (where relevant) and how long it will take to reach your destination. cityXplorer public transport timetables ensure you arrive at the station on time and don't have to wait too long for your connection.
There is no need for a GPS signal for cityXplorer maps to work: you can preview your city tour from the comfort of your hotel room, or even while on the underground metro, before setting out on foot.
cityXplorer can be used to enhance your Garmin nüvi even if the city is outside your preloaded base map. For example, you may be planning a city break in New York but only have mapping for Europe. Simply upload cityXplorer New York, use your sat nav like a handheld GPS, and enjoy finding your way round the Big Apple.
Garmin has dozens of great world cities to choose from, with extended regional coverage in addition to detailed downtown street plans.
You can also add an AA Guide to London, Paris, Rome or New York for information on places to visit, local history, museum opening times and entrance fees. With tips on places to eat, stay and shop it's a complete pocket-sized guide!

I'm going to buy my first Wacom tablet and I was wondering if I could get by with saving a little money by going with the Intuos 4 small size. It's roughly the size of a 3x5 card but my led monitor is huge at 23" on the diagonal. Will I be able to draw nice long graceful lines on the smaller tablet? Also, I don't want to have to keep zooming in and out while roughing in the basic shapes and masses.
I could go even cheaper with a Bamboo tablet but I might be losing a lot of cool features that the Intuos has. I don't know, I'm new at this stuff. What are your thoughts, anybody?

Tombs Of The Blind Drugged
Down tempo sludgy drone is a genre obviously not meant for everyone. It's a fairly unforgiving branch of metal with a relatively small circle of followers, so discographies are often short, and bands frequently split in hopes of finding more complex and lucrative waters. The most memorable acts are those that discover interesting ways to rouse the formula just enough to cultivate curiosity while still maintaining the style's tortuously glacial pace: lesser known projects such as Gentry Densley's latest endeavor, Eagle Twin, Spain's Orthodox and Oakland's Laudanum immediately spring to mind, along with a host of the more "big-top" acts such as YOB, Corrupted, Grief and Noothgrush -- all tar slathered examples sporting different ways of sweetening the pot.
Southampton's inlet to this particular realm, Moss, has been churning out sludge drone for nearly a decade now, and they're extensive discography definitely proves they're here on a mission focused on sluggishly slogging: five demo's, five splits, two full-lengths, and this, their fourth (ahem) "EP." Unfortunately, the most interesting thing about this very extended player is the artwork that adorns that gruesomely beauteous cover. Underneath those quivering, robed skeletons, however, lies 40-minutes of remarkably nondescript slothlike sludge accompanied by gravel-rasped vocals we've all heard a hundred times before. At no point during my repeated listens did I ever feel I understood the feeling Moss hoped to deliver with their take on the style. No dread crept up the ol' spine. No dementia lurked in the corners of my mind. No walloping hammer fell upon my dome from the sky. Just three long yarns and a miss-fired Discharge cover apparently meant to accompany a slowly fading snail trail on its seemingly directionless journey to nowhere.
Perhaps my story would have a happier ending if this were my first foray into the genre, but as it stands, I'd call Tombs of the Blind Drugged a bland experiment in a lab overflowing with better and more potent choices ready to challenge those with a penchant for the plod.
Pass on by.
