Sometimes even celebrities need some support, whether it be financial or emotional … Nick Lachey is milking Ms. Simpson’s goods for all she’s got. The former 98 Degrees singer and husband of Jessica Simpson has taken measures to receive “spousal support,” according to People. Simpson does not want her soon-to-be exhusband to obtain such a settlement but California law might beg to differ in the courts … Britney Spears may be his No. 1 fan, but she’s pretty much the only one offering her hubby and wannabe rapper, Kevin Federline that sup-
port. Critics slashed down on “Mr. Spear’s” most recent single: “PopoZao,” but Federline says his debut album will be even better. In an interview to Newsweek, he explained that he basically can’t be brought down lower than he already has; so what does the 27year-old dancer got to lose: he’s got the money, the famous wifey and kids, who is really laughing now?! Lisa Presley, 38, confirmed she was shacking up by making it official! The King’s daughter married for the fourth time, this time to Michael Lockwood, a musical producer and guitarist. The couple married in Japan last week … Reggaeton artist Daddy Yankee received the most nominations (10) for the 2006 “Billboard Latin Music Awards.” The show will air live on April 27 on Telemundo, according to MTV News … The Oscars will air March 5 on NBC with some big-name presenters this year, namely some that have been in the media’s recent eye of

THE SAGA CONTINUES: POGS ARE BACK! By
Daily Titan Staff Writer
With all of today’s high tech video games, who would have thought just over a decade ago, kids would entertain themselves for hours using tiny plastic and wood discs? This simple obsession, known as pogs, quickly caught on in schools across the nation, and teachers were constantly collecting these prized possessions in return for their students’ attention. A pog, about the size of a bottle cap, came in assorted colors with different emblems and pictures. The game of pogs is pretty simplistic in nature and easy to play. Friends would gather around in a circle and stack 10 to 12 pogs facedown in the center. Each player would then take a “slammer” and hit the stack, trying to flip over as many as possible. Only the pogs that landed face up belonged to that player. Whoever collected the most pogs won the game.
Pogs became as cherished to people as valuable trading cards. Every popular company, movie, television show, or music group joined in the craze and released
even came to be. Legend has it, that over 600 years ago, the Japanese used to play a game called Menkos. They used round pieces, similar to the shape of pogs today, but they were made of clay, ceramic or wood, and had colorful images of sumo wrestlers and samurai warriors. Some school systems banned the game because of the dangers of slammers being thrown with overly zealous force, and kids had to keep pog-playing outside of school. By 1995, the pog craze had reached its popularity peak. Nowadays, a company called Funrise is trying to get the pog craze up and running again. The company introduced a new line of pogs in January and hopes to get the ball rolling again. We will have to wait and see if the saying that history repeats itself is true, and if our nation will re-live the pog obsession that once was.
Over 600 years ago, the Japanese used to play a game called menkos, which is very similar to pogs.
limited-edition pogs. Star Trek pogs were a popular choice among favorites. Many pog fanatics also had pog carrying case, a plastic tube, in which to stack and carry their precious pogs on them at all times, incase the opportunity for a good swap with another pog player presented itself. Many played the game of pogs, but are unaware of how the game

A CHEAP WAY TO BE IN THE MOVIE OF YOUR DREAMS
By Jackie Kimmel Daily Titan Columnist
This week’s topic is a rare and exciting entertainment idea. Movies are a top choice when it comes to low cost entertainment, but to make your movie experience uniquely yours, be an extra in a movie. Every movie needs extras and I know from first hand experience that being an extra is hard but gratifying. There are many studios, directors, and film students always on the look out for a set of fun loving people to be part of a movie. Plus, if you go looking for a specific movie it is more than likely you will be able to volunteer for that movie as apposed to filmmakers pulling random
people off the streets. Most movie extras are unpaid because it may not be in the film’s budget to pay for that many people to shoot on any given day, but there are a few instances where being a movie extra could pay off not only in entertainment or experience but it could help fatten your wallet. To find movie extra work you can search the internet for movie extra casting calls. This allows you to pick and choose what type of film, what genre, and a preferred shooting location. I know this entertainment idea is somewhat out of the ordinary, but it is worth the time. Still, as a word of caution be sure to research the film(s) you wish to be apart of to make sure they are legitimate movies. There is no better feeling than seeing yourself in a finished film product knowing that you were part of film making history. Not to mention you can earn major brownie points on a date or to just show off with your friends. So for those who become extras, I’ll see you in the movies.

CITY DRIVE CRUISE INTO CSUF By Lori Martinez Daily Titan Staff Writer
Cal State Fullerton students were treated to a free concert at the Pub in the TSU Underground, Thursday Feb. 17 by the Los Angeles based band, The City Drive. Despite the fact that most of those in attendance were students on their lunch breaks, the band played like everyone was there just for them. The City Drive consists of Vocalist/Guitarist, Danny Smith; Bassist, Scott Waldman; Drummer, Marc Precilla; and guest guitarist Chris Perry. Each member of the band exuded that rock ‘n’ roll sex appeal and they knew it, as they flirted with female audience members throughout the show.
Their laid back Southern California style caused them to blend in almost like students. The City Drive may at first sound like many other pop/punk bands out in circulation right now, but as the band played on the music changed. Each song had a distinct feel about it, but all of them equally catchy. With tables and chairs in the way, no one danced, jumped around, or moshed, but many felt a strong urge to. The guys sounded awesome live, with a good balance between their instruments and their vocals. They harmonize well together live, producing a sound that is record quality at their shows. While most of the songs were upbeat and lively, they did perform a few ballads, as the band
called them, but were really just slower-paced songs with just as much volume and intensity. The band seemed comfortable on stage and interacted easily with the crowd, with jokes and friendly banter between songs. They had a good stage presence and kept the audience interested. As students trickled into the pub to eat their lunch, many stayed long after to enjoy the show. The City Drive is a group of talented musicians, and Danny Smith is a gifted songwriter and lyricist. There may have only been a handful of students that have heard of The City Drive, but by the end of the show the band had many more fans, who will patiently await the release of their new full length album, Always Moving Never Stopping.
RAGGAE FESTIVA

THE MUSIC SCOOP PART DUEX By Jimmy Stroup Daily Titan Staff Writer
Last week, I put before you a few of my favorite albums to try to contend your attraction to 50 Cent or whatever “American Idol” runner-up got a juicy record deal this month. I was watching the Amazon ratings, and none of the albums I recommended jumped like I thought they would. Still, I’m undeterred and have returned to throw some more quality picks your way. So, here you are. (6) The Name of This Band is Talking Heads by hmmm…. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, the great live compilation album by the Talking Heads was finally released on CD a few weeks ago. I did have it on vinyl, but my car only takes CDs, so I was sad on trips. My personal favorite track is “Found a Job,” though “Psycho Killer” and “Minds” are also serious contenders. David Byrne is a genius, no doubt, so enough said. Incidentally, you might like his solo self-titled effort. A song or two from that album is always on any mix I put together. (7) Motown (and Motown II II) by Michael McDonald. One of my favorite singers has got to
be Michael McDonald. And with his latest outings, McDonald has combined his incredible voice with some of the great rhythm and blues (before morons twisted it into that bastard R&B) and soul tunes. Arguably, originals are better than covers, but these albums really put the screws to that idea, and Michael McDonald’s the only white dude on earth that could’ve done that. (8) The Beatles (so-called White Album) by the Beatles. You know who the Beatles are, so I don’t have to explain. The most improvisational album they ever put together, the White Album is at times tender and at times tumultuous – it’s hard to imagine the same two guys can be so diverse. “Julia,” “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” (featuring Eric Clapton on guitar), “I Will,” “Sexy Sadie,” and the “Revolution(s)” are all tops, though if I had to list all the great tunes on this double, I’d be unable to move on, so I compromise on only the truly great. (9) Live in Texas by Lyle Lovett (and his Large Band). I know. You think Lovett’s country because that’s where he gets shelved. That’s crap (like your music is, but we’ll get there) – Lovett is a heavily jazz-
influenced rock ‘n’ roller. Just because a Texan wears a cowboy hat, pointed boots and strokes a gee-tar, that doesn’t mean he’s country; that’s a stereotype I’m here to stamp out here and now. This album has the advantage of being both live and a sort of greatest-hits montage. The best track on the album is “Nobody Knows Me Like My Baby,” which could make you misty if you aren’t careful. “You’re Not From Texas” is another notable tune on this great, great album. (10) The Clash by the Clash. You may have heard of the Clash. You may even have a few tunes by the Clash on your iPod. But, I assure you, listening to “Rock the Casbah” doesn’t get you close to what the Clash is all about – and this album will. Filled with hate and angst, guitarist Joe Strummer nearly created socially-conscious punk rock. “I’m So Bored With the U.S.A.” and the classic “Hate & War” should bring you closer to what the Clash is all about, and should lend some understanding to the roots of punk. So, that’s the next five. Absorbing those should fill your waking moments over the next week until it’s time again for me to enlighten you further.

ighters and cell phone faces lit the Long Beach Arena as thousands of people sang along with the Wailers, who headlined the Ragga Muffins Festival. Reggae history was created as the Ragga Muffins Festival celebrated its 25th anniversary with many reggae artists and musiclovers paying tribute to Reggae legend Bob Marley. Both the young and the old comprised the artists and the audience over the weekend proving that reggae has become bigger in this world, fulfilling Marley’s legacy. However, others were left outside of their comfort zone with the way the music has evolved. “We were more spirited and serious to see this music evolve to what it is right now,” said Ras Michael, reggae artist and friend of Marley, during a news conference. “In our time, so many Jamaican people didn’t understand Rasta until after knowledge increased.” While Ras Michael admitted that some people might not know him, it is unimportant to him because he did it through love and unity. Ras Michael performed at the festival for his second time. He performed at the first ever Ragga Muffins Festival at

Freddie McGregor admits doing that with his own family has been trying at times. McGregor, a noted reggae artist as well who successfully brought reggae into Indian reservations and places in Asia, has been guiding his children who have joined the industry as well. His daughter, Yashemabeth, has a strong following in Japan. “Sometimes she can be a stubborn girl but they really love her in Japan,” said McGregor as he chuckled during the news conference. “Sometimes you have children that take your advice and do well because of it. Yashemabeth doesn’t follow my advice but I am proud of her.” However, the generation gap was not only seen on stage but in the audience as well. Joey Vecchione, 33, brought his 19-month old son, Marley, to the festival. “My heart is Jamaica and reggae,” the New Jersey native said. He and his wife, Elaine, 31, named their son after the reggae legend. Barbara Barbino, event organizer and founder of Ragga Muffins, said, in an earlier interview, that the success of the festival is the new people it brings to take part of the history. “Sometimes people don’t know about artists beyond Bob Marley – artists who helped paved the way,” she said. “But this festival helps remind them of who they are and helps others get out there.”

‘8 BELOW’ FREEZES ‘FINAL DESTINATION 3’ PROVES YOU CAN’T CHEAT DEATH OUT THEATERS By Songha Lee
Daily Titan Staff Writer
Inspired by a true story, the Disney film “Eight Below” is not the typical “Homeward Bound” movie. When a group of expeditionists are forced to leave their beloved team of sled dogs during the worst storm in Antarctica, the dogs must learn how to survive alone in the harsh frozen conditions for six months. Meanwhile, back in America, Jerry Shepard (Paul Walker), with help of a couple of his friends, works diligently to find a way to rescue his four-legged friends. The film crosses back and forth between Shepard’s effort to save the dogs and the sled dogs effort to survive. When the film flashes back to the dogs, a subtitle is projected with the number of days
the dogs’ have been on their own. As the numbers grow, so does the doubt for their survival. Cooper (Jason Biggs) plays Shepard’s comical, dorky best friend and Antarctic guide. Similar to “March of the Penguins,” the film takes viewers on a scenic journey through Antarctica and also presents the habitual species, which play a role in both the dogs’ survival and perils. The sled dogs are admirably humanized. Each of the eight dogs has their own personality and characteristics. Shepard clearly points each dog out when he introduces them to the American geologist, played by Bruce Greenwood. Unlike other films where people voice over a dogs’ character, body language is used efficiently to characterize the dogs. “Eight Below” is a wonderful film for both adults and children.

Apparently Death doesn’t take no for an answer. “Final Destination 3” visits the audience for a third time with fresh new victims to be offered up to grotesque and rather peculiar deaths. It follows the same concept as the prior “Final Destination 1 and 2” characters have a premonition of an upcoming deadly accident, and are able to save a few peers. The characters learn that death cannot be cheated and the movie follows the “saved” as death reclaims its stolen merchandise. The main character in “Final Destination 3” is Wendy (Mary Elizabeth Winstead). She has the deadly premonition and an inevitable panic attack. She escapes with some other students, and they all watch her premonition fulfilled. This sets the journey for the ill-fated characters, which are left with a mere camera and photos as tools to save their lives. The accident in this thriller occurs on a roller coaster when
a group of high school students decide to spend the evening at an amusement park. The idea to use a roller coaster was pitched at the “Final Destination 2” premier.
“...We wanted to do something that had not been done before.” Criag Perry
FILM PRODUCER
Craig Perry, who produced the movie, said the roller coaster scenes were the hardest to shoot, because the coaster couldn’t get insured and had to get recertified after each scene. “It was a tremendous effort but we wanted to do something that had not been done before,” Perry said. Perry also said he was happy to see that the Final Destination audience would follow the concept rather than just the charac-
ters, since they were not using any characters from the previous movies. “Final Destination 3” is part of a franchise, and it will please its consumers,” Perry said. The movie is not for those in search of a mind captivating mystery or thriller, but if you enjoyed the previous Final Destinations and would like to see the characters killed in gruesome, blood-splattering scenes, the many deaths will not disappoint. The ending to “Final Destination 3” does not follow in the footsteps of the prior Final Destinations. “The first ending tested bad so we knew we had to re-create it and give the “Final Destination “fans just what they wanted… but if you want to know what that is you are going to have to watch it for yourself,” Perry said. Don’t worry about the audience experiencing grief over the loss of any characters, there is little character development and the acting is far from satisfactory. But then again, the audience who attends a movie of this nature is not hoping for survival.

Daily Titan Staff Writer
Brenda Martin (Julianne Moore) walks the streets of New Jersey into a Dempsey hospital and claims an African-American man has stolen her car along
with her sick 4-year-old son. Detective Lorenzo Council (Samuel L. Jackson) visits and patrols the Armstrong House located in the gritty parts of the projects. He looks after the neighborhood as if it were his own until he gets a call about an abduction from the same location. Lorenzo goes to the hospital and meets Brenda, who is a wellknown teacher in the Armstrong House. Lorenzo has a feeling that Brenda is not telling him the whole truth and he searches to find out what really happened to her son. Brenda’s brother Danny Martin (Ron Eldard) is a detec-
tive for the Gannon County police department. Freedomland takes place in two northern New Jersey towns: Dempsey, a predominantly African-American working-class poor community and Gannon, a neighboring, largely white bluecollar suburb. Danny brings in all of Gannon County police department to find out what happened to his nephew. The police department causes tempers to flare when they place barricades trapping the residents in. Racial tension rises as residents of the Armstrong House incite a riot opposing the treatment of the Gannon police department. Freedomland is an adaptation of Richard Price’s novel, which is based on a true story. The novel is about a carjacking, a missing child and a neighborhood of distrust and racism. Jackson’s performance was good. He played the cool detective who wanted to protect his community and also the victim, Martin. It’s a love it or hate it type of movie. People who are fans of suspenseful movies will definitely be satisfied. Maybe it won’t be the movie of the year but it is a look into what would happen if a white child went missing in a black community.

LIVE BLUES, STEAK: THE BEST IN TOWN By Natalie Murillo Daily Titan Staff Writer
S
tubrik’s is a restaurant for any occasion. The second you walk in the door, you are welcomed by the warm, laid back atmosphere that surrounds the restaurant. With the lights dimmed and the blues music blaring in the background, Stubrik’s creates an atmosphere that allows a person to relax. “It’s mellow compared to where I live,” said Aaron Robles, 24, from Corona. The stuffed mushroom appetizer has a spicy, flavorful taste that I have never experienced in any other restaurant. The garlic-cheesy bread actually had a thick layer of cheese on top unlike most restaurants that only sprinkle Parmesan on top of the bread. There’s no appetizer over $10 and they start at $3. The Cajun chicken is for people who real-
ly love extremely spicy food. The steak comes in three different sizes: 8, 12 and 16 ounces. The steak is completely trimmed of its fat and is thick and juicy. The steak doesn’t even need steak sauce because it is so juicy and well cooked. The steak dinners cost from $14 to $36 depending on how big the steak is and what type of steak it is. Stubrik’s also has pasta dinners such as chicken fettuccine alfredo, seafood dishes and dishes like beef stroganoff that are priced from $14 to $21. The seafood dishes are the more pricey dishes. “The food is very, very good here. The black and blue steak is fabulous, it’s really tender and there’s blue cheese on top and that’s my favorite,” said Alaina
The banana split is big enough to feed more than three people and there is no desert on the menu over $9. Stubrik’s also has a special “calling card” to help people remember where they had their great time and to also make it known to other bars who has visited Stubrik’s. “They always give you two dollar bills and a dollar coin,” said Sheries Aguilar, 27, from Yorba Linda who warns people not spend the two-dollar bills they are given because they are considered good luck. Overall, I think the restaurant deserves a five star rating because the service is wonderful.
