Latarian Milton – Bad Boy #1
March 31, 2010 by Jan Welch · Leave a Comment
I came across these videos of Florida’s own 7 year old bad boy #1 Latarian Milton on youtube.com. This kid likes do to hood rat stuff with his friends, cause it’s fun to do bad stuff. He is really as bad as it gets for his poor grandmother. He is almost the poster child for later term abortion’s. No one can disagree that he should be put down after watching these clips. Otherwise he will be doing some real hood rat stuff with his friends when he gets older.
Pierced Arrows – “Paranoia” & “Caroline”
March 24, 2010 by Jan Welch · 2 Comments
In anticipation of tonight’s Pierced Arrows show at Bar Pink in San Diego I have decided to post their video for Paranoia off their first Vice Records release “Descending Shadows” as well as a live performance of “Caroline,” which you may recognize from Joey Chase’s section of the Vicious video. The front man Fred Cole is one of my favorite musicians of all time. I’ve been waiting to see them play at this bar for a since they announced their tour at the beginning of the year. He is one of the few musicians from the 60′s who has continuously produced hard hitting raw rock n’roll. He started out when he was thirteen years old in the band “The Lords” and then went solo with “Deep Soul Cole”. In 1967 he went on to play with the garage rock band “The Weeds” who later changed their name to the “Lollipoppe Shoppe”. In the 70′s he fronted the hard rock band “Zipper” and by the end of the decade he taught his wife Toody how to play bass and they started the punk band “The Rats” in 1979. In 1988 “Dead Moon” was founded, which lasted almost 20 years, until they replaced their drummer and changed their name to “Pierced Arrows.” If you live in or around San Diego I highly recommend you go to this show.

Film: Carts of Darkness
March 12, 2010 by Jan Welch · Leave a Comment
This has to be one of the most random and cool documentaries I have seen in a long time. The movie follows a group of homeless men on the north side of Vancouver who went from riding their shopping carts down hill from house to house collecting bottles, to creating a new extreme sport of downhill shopping cart racing at speeds of 70km per hour. These guys wreck, break bones and even die blowing past cars down the steep winding hills of Vancouver.
JR expo Paris de Women are Heroes
March 12, 2010 by Jan Welch · Leave a Comment
This is a pretty amazing art project on the Le Saint Louis bridge in Paris, France. The artist and his volunteers cover the bridge and walls surrounding the river with piece after piece of paper wheat pasted onto the old stones. Once completed a whole different mood and feeling coming to the banks of this river. But after only a few weeks the beauty turns to waste as it floats down the sewers into the river and out to sea. Check out more from the artist at jr-art.net

10 Seconds with Oli Short
Be-Mag did a quick 10 seconds story with Nimh & Vicious rider Oli Short during the Winterclash. Read up on his plans for the year and what he had to say about the Winterclash. Oli Short, along with Gabriel Hyden, will be flying to Florida to meet up with Jon Elliott at the Panhandle Pow Wow. Everyone needs to roll that event hang out, kick it and skate to your hearts content.

SO, WHAT’S UP, OLI? HAVE YOU SKATED THIS COURSE YET?
Not yet, but, yeah, I’ll be skating a bit. I don’t think I’ll be competing, but I just want to be here to catch with all my friends, hang out a bit… I enjoy skating with the kids too, just promoting rollerblading.
SO, YOU’VE BEEN HERE A FEW DAYS ALREADY, RIGHT?
Yeah, came in a few days early. When you travel it’s usually so quick and you end up missing what a city has to offer, so I made a point to get out here a few days early. Done a load of stuff already! The first night we stayed at a place called IMA – it’s an old warehouse that’s been converted into studios and an artist community and it’s close to a lot of museums in the area; there’s a lot going on there so that was really cool seeing that side of Berlin.
Checked out a few records stores too that I’ve been wanting to visit. Again, skating is great, but there’s so much more than just skating that makes skating great; it’s because of the opportunities to travel and really see all the different parts of a culture. So, it’s been good. And than I head back tomorrow after the Clash.
To read the rest of the store go here.
Bad Brains – Attitude live 1979
March 10, 2010 by Jan Welch · Leave a Comment
This is a rad live video recording of Bad Brains performing Attitude in 1979. Audio isn’t perfect but rad clip none the less. The following excerpt is from wikipedia:
Bad Brains is an American hardcore punk band formed in Washington, D.C. in 1977. They are widely regarded as among the pioneers of the genre, though the band’s members objected to the term “hardcore” to describe their music.
Originally formed as a jazz fusion ensemble under the name Mind Power, Bad Brains developed a very fast and intense punk rock sound known as hardcore punk and was often played faster and more emphatically than the music of many of their peers. The unique factor of the band’s music was the fact that they played more complex rhythms than that of other hardcore punk bands, also adapting non-punk style riffs/solos into their songs. They were also an adept reggae band, in a sort of Jekyll-and-Hyde arrangement, while later recordings featured elements of other genres. Bad Brains are also notable as religious followers of the Rastafari movement.
Well I woke up this morning to this amazing email from Jon Elliott with accompanying video: Dude! Mischka decided to pull a nug of shit out of her litter box this morning and hoist it into the bathtub. Then proceeded to play with it (sounded like an old rattle alarm) until it dissolved into a mud mixture at the base of the tub. I thought cats were clean. I’m going to stick her in one of these.

RAID French Anti-terrorist K-9 Unit
Insane video of French Anti-Terrorist police training the K-9 units in hostage situations. I’ve never been a fan of police dogs in Europe, they used to scare the piss out of me as a child, especially at the airport in Frankfurt when you used to see two cops with sub-machine guns and one with a German Shepard! Anyway I would not want to be on the other end of that bite! Poor bastards…
Huge Lego Tower Construction Project

I have always been a huge fan of Legos. I can not even imagine the hours I have spent in my life building amazing buildings and castles just to destroy them in an epic war. I always dreamed to work for a company building huge structures made from Legos. These people actually are living the dream. Bjarke Ingels Group’s LEGO Towers project built over five weeks using 250,000 pieces of LEGO bricks.
