( fr ) Tool is an American progressive rock band, formed in 1990 in Los Angeles, California, when drummer Danny Carey joined the rehearsal of his neighbor, singer Maynard James Keenan, guitarist Adam Jones and bassist Paul d'Amour, when nobody else would show up. His decision proved to be a stroke of luck when the band turned out to become a highly successful act, 'introducing dark, vaguely underground metal to the preening pretentiousness of art rock' ? most notably due to their influential third release, Ænima (1996).

Modest Mouse Still Mighty Strange
Top 40 hit “Float On” and chart-topper We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank notwithstanding, Isaac Brock remains one of rock’s great eccentrics, and two new songs off the forthcoming No One's First and You're Next show just how far he’s taken that. If you haven’t seen the video for the immensely appealing “Satellite Skin” — which was directed by Kevin Willis, who makes disturbing clips (and does God knows what else) with Tool — click through for an excellent nineties-style alien, Druish Princesses, and ravens enough to have you saying “Nevermore.” Spazzy semi-ballad “Guilty Cocker Spaniels,” which you can play here, seems to address an even darker realm: adulthood. If nothing else, Brock sounds like he’s [Read more]

New Modest Mouse Video - Satellite Skin
Modest Mouse have been playing this chipper No One's First And You're Next single live, and two days ago started streaming it, and they're officially wasting no time getting out this video. It's directed by Tool collaborator Kevin Willis, naturally, and taps that band's predilection toward stop-motion fun, albeit more Lord Of The Rings-styled anthropomorphic tree(house)s than Jacob's Ladder-styled violent twitchery. Also it features a Tool-esque muted color palette, until the little druid kid secures the Easter eggs and fastens them into the alien's eye sockets so that he can birth a flock of delicious birds. But I mean, obviously. Continue reading New Modest Mouse Video - Satellite Skin... [Read more]

Wetpaint TV Fandex First to Measure 'Engagement' Rather Than Just
Investors pay attention to the monthly durable orders report released by the Commerce Department around the end of each month. When durable goods are strong, it means that U.S. manufacturing is humming along, though economists tend to parse the numbers pretty closely. Big-ticket items can skew the overall results, since an order for, say, 75 Boeing 747s has a bigger impact than 75 iPods. Luckily, the data lets economists break down the sectors. [Read more]

You know a guy who'll pass these bills up at the State House?
I saw that the General Assembly is racing to the end of its legislative session with thousands of bills backlogged, but only 51 passed as of the weekend. The key issues this year have ranged from gay marriage to indoor prostitution to a ban on cell phones while driving.I don't want to burden the legislature with more work, but it occurs to me there are key local matters that still need to be addressed. So today, I'd like to urge the House and Senate to consider some of the following bills:• [Read more]

Subsea pipeline developments advance operations, integrity
Preparation for the offshore hot tap included system integration tests at the BiFab yard, Methil, UK. The hot-tap machine—with the hot-tap valve attached—was lowered from the hot-tap installation frame (in white) into the subsea protection frame. Once situated in the protection frame, engineers supervised connection of the hot-tap machine and valve to the hot-tap nipple for pressure testing before performing the hot tap (Photo by T.D. Williamson; Fig. 1). [Read more]

Should You Move in Retirement?
It’s fun to dream about retiring to the golf course or deep in wine country. If you are feeling practical, it is apt to contemplate downsizing to a smaller house in a more affordable part of the country to give your nest egg a quick boost. But most Americans don’t move in retirement. Of the 36.8 million people age 65 and older, only about 1.4 million retirees moved last year, according to new Census Bureau data released today. Among the 3.7 percent of retirees who traded residence [Read more]

Families Seeking God's Kingdom - not Selfishness
Families Seeking God's Kingdom - not SelfishnessOften, parents and teachers ask their children, What do YOU want to be when you grow up? In a world that is increasingly self-seeking, self-centered, and self-absorbed, the answers are consistently more egocentric-a movie star, a rock star, a dance star. Even within the church, this present generation is fixated on obtaining fame, wealth, and pleasure. But shouldn't we be encouraging our children's willingness to surrender to God's plans fo [Read more]

There were more tweets (after all, how much can you really say in 140 characters or less?) and a video response from will.i.am, who said that after a verbal dust-up with Hilton, fans defending the star's honor scuffled with the gossip. Hilton posted his own tear- and profanity-filled video Monday, disputing will.i.am’s version (though Hilton now directly blames his injuries on the Black Eyed Peas’ tour manager, who reportedly has been charged in the alleged assault).
