The Popovich Brothers of South Chicago, a 1978 documentary by Jill Godmilow, is a great look into big city life at the end of the seventies. What was so commonplace to see in the years after the documentary was created seems extremely foreign for audiences in the current period. It is this distance in time and locale (Chicago versus the rest of the United States) that makes this such a…
There are many different whey protein isolates on the market, and while they are seen as some of the best proteins one can buy, the quality of each differs greatly. Neocell has attempted to flip what an individual expects from their protein; Collagen Sport is the result here. The product should be used in a way similar to other protein powders – as a post-workout drink that will facilitate muscle…
I did not know that Carhartt released clothing beyond their coats and work-based gear. We at NeuFutur received a pair of their Woman’s Original Basic Jeans for review, and cannot be happier with the quality of what we received. First off, the cut of the jeans is fashionable and will look good on the young adult set (16-35). Secondly, sizing is on point and an individual that is a certain…
This volume of Chuggington contains six distinct episodes that will keep children interested for a hair over an hour. While each of these episodes represents teaching of a different moral, I feel that there are some common threads to be enjoyed here. For example, with the same set of characters, children will be able to come to know and enjoy them – they may even have a favorite, for example.…
Beta Maxx represents the perfect sort of supplement for those individuals that have recently cycled off of Creatine, or who wish to increase their workout intensity or weights used. By using Beta-Alanine (and the NRG-X Beta Maxx) in particular, individuals can expect more lean muscle mass growth and decreased recovery time. Beta-Alanine works to increase the amount of Carnosine that is present in one’s body. Beta Maxx is a better…
You can see what the creators of Running Wilde were going for. Put together by Mitch Hurwitz, the brains behind the beloved (though clearly by not by enough people) Arrested Development, he even managed to snag Arrested alums like Will Arnett and David Cross for his second chance show at Fox. With Running Wilde, the hilariously odd characters seem almost like an offshoot of his former series, but the show…
The ZigTech Bra Top by Reebok represents a must-buy for any woman that is looking to exercise with any sort of passion or intensity. The quality of the fabric ensures that there will not be chafing or any problems that can be associated with an overly-loose cut. The Bra Top is versatile, ensuring that women that run, weight train, or do any one of a large number of sports will…
It is nice to see that Nickelodeon is gradually moving to providing full season sets for their original shows. I always felt that the 6 to 10 episode collection style that is present in a number of companies’ inventories was a remnant of the VHS era, in which only a few episodes could be captured on a tape. With DVD (and Blu-Ray) formats possessing a great deal more space, whole…
Q:What’s your story? How’d you fall into rap? My story? Ha, I’ve got a million stories, but I started into rap after being a writer for many years. I never translated it into music, cause I’m not exactly a singer, and when I first thought to rap, I didnt like the image that the hip hop genre perpetuated. It just seemed too shallow, too obsessed over pointless things, but when…
Previously, there only existed a small segment of the United States population that had any idea what Goldwasser was. However, with Niche Import Company bringing this spirit to our shores, the amount of imbibers that can profess familiarity with Goldwasser is drastically increasing. While the spirit will immediately remind individuals of Goldschlager with gold specks floating in a clear base, the taste of Goldwasser is drastically different than that of…
Country music has been continually changing and evolving over the course of the last few years. What was fairly constant and static up until the mid-nineties began to change at a rapid clip during the last decade. Eric Church is looking to provide another path in which country can go with eir latest album, “Chief”. “Creepin’” is the first track on “Chief”, and it immediately provides listeners with a bold…
Harbinger Neoprene Ankle Cuff / http://www.harbingerfitness.com A great many gyms offer cuffs and other workout gear for use, but a number of these cuffs, grips, and the like get beaten down through daily use. One also has to worry about getting skin conditions and other concerns when they use gym gear, but this is why companies like Harbinger exist. By creating a solid ankle cuff for a cheap price (one…
There are a number of different live show reviews that are released on a regular basis. However, many of these concert videos are seriously lacking something. This is not the case with the Blu-Ray edition of Bad Company’s Live at Wembley release. The release provides ample value with stellar shots and a perfect blend of tracks from all periods of the band’s existence. These sixteen tracks tie up “Feel Like…
Want an idea of just how big Prince’s ego is? As told in Jason Draper’s new bio on the often reclusive musician, in an attempt to regain some of his former mojo a few years ago, Prince decided to finally reunite The Revolution – his most successful backing band. But only on the condition that Wendy Melvoin and Lisa Coleman, denounce their homosexuality. Apparently the newly converted Jehovah’s Witness, labeled…
The movie adaption of the strongly compelling memoir from war photographers Greg Marinovich and Joao Silva could have gone one of two ways – either a bloated Hollywood-take on war (think Michael Bay) or taken the sophisticated indie route, true to the source. The Bang Bang Club, out now on DVD, thankfully falls into the latter category. Starring Ryan Phillippe (the new go-to guy for indie dramas) as Marinovich and…
This may just be one of the best textbooks currently on the market regarding sociology, criminal justice, and the intersection of the two in social constructions of deviance. While this book is paced more towards upper-division courses, I believe that Adler and Adler do a great job in filling in any holes in terms of literature or concepts that an individual may have present. Where the textbook succeeds the best…
What brought you into creating music? My music creates itself. It is as natural for me as breathing. I’ve done it since I was a small child and it is how I deal with the world. Hardest thing for me is to NOT write or create and do the more mundane things in life. Whom would you say are your biggest influences, both in terms of your life and your…
Puddle of Mudd is preparing to get back on the front lines of Rock N Roll, joining the Rock Allegiance Tour in support of their upcoming new album, Re:(Disc)overed coming out on August 30th. To celebrate the tour and the album, the band is teaming up with neufutur.com to give 2 grand prize winners an acoustic Gibson Epiphone guitar signed by the entire band. The band is also giving away…
The folks at A&E have this tremendous knack of taking the truly odd and seemingly mundane tasks and turning them into DVR-worthy TV. Storage Wars is the latest and quite possible best example as it is now the networks most popular show. The first season focuses on four individuals who make their living by bidding on storage units that have gone up to auction after the owners fell behind on…
The 2011 ROCKSTAR ENERGY DRINK MAYHEM FESTIVAL wrapped up its bludgeoning streak through the country last week, but before the fest was finished, several of this year’s festival artists took to the mainstage in Dallas, TX to perform a special tribute to Dimebag Darrell by performing Pantera’s ‘Walk’. A video of the performance can be viewed at the official ROCKSTAR ENERGY DRINK MAYHEM FESTIVAL YouTube page now! Numerous artists on…
