Superfly's Plans To Improve This Weekend's GoogaMooga Festival
By Alex Gale, New York
The Great GoogaMooga is back for seconds.
Superfly Present's food-and-music festival is returning to Brooklyn's Prospect Park tonight after an inaugural year that made more headlines for its problems than its successes—namely, bringing together several acts big and small, dozens of acclaimed New York restaurants and 40,000 hungry foodies and music fans. But Superfly has made several changes to the festival to address last year's problems in hopes of improving attendees' experiences and, presumably, its own bottom line.
The Great GoogaMooga Fest to Refund 'Extra Mooga' Tickets Amid Attendee Backlash
GoogaMooga 2012 was beset by logistical issues: intolerably long lines for food, major food and water supply problems, poor cellphone coverage. Jon Mayers, cofounder of Superfly, which also runs Bonnaroo and San Francisco's Outside Lands, promises a litany of improvements that should make the main focus of the festival—eating and drinking—much more enjoyable. "Our biggest issue last year was the volume," he tells Billboard. "We looked at our experiences from other past events, and we made certain projections about what we thought people would eat. And obviously, it really blew that away. Which is a good problem, but it's a problem. This year we'll have better projections going in, and we've built up our team."
Another solution? More participating restaurants—85 of them, to be exact. "There will be more points of sale," Mayers says. "But we also simplified the process. Every vendor is only selling one option rather than multiple options, which should make things move faster and less chaotically. With that said, it's still restaurants serving a mass of people, so there will be lines, but it should be much, much improved from last year."
However, the most obvious change is GoogaMooga's addition of tonight's paid-admission concert, headlined by the Flaming Lips and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs; last year's edition consisted of two free-admission days. Ticket buyers for tonight are guaranteed admission to the festival on either Saturday or Sunday, when Kool & the Gang, De La Soul, Matt & Kim and others will be performing; the other tickets to the free days were distributed via online raffle.
The paid-admission expansion opens up a brand-new revenue stream for Superfly, which last year relied on pricey VIP packages (as well as sponsors, of course). "The business model made sense to extend to three days," Mayers says. "The ticket price for Friday is very reasonable. $54.50 for the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and the Flaming Lips? Arguably either one of those could command that price. It's at a special venue—Prospect Park—and you also get entrance to Sunday and Saturday. It's a good value, and that's something we try to be very, very conscious about."
A second, smaller stage—curated by Manhattan venue Joe's Pub, known for its extremely diverse bookings—will feature bhangra-jazz fusion band Red Baraat, Afro-Colombian eight-piece M.A.K.U. Soundsystem, and other mainly New York-based upstart acts. "We wanted diversity with a local focus," says Shanta Thake, director of Joe's Pub. "When you have an outdoor festival that's free in Brooklyn, you want to make sure that everyone feels they have a place there, that's it's not just for this young, white community. You want to make sure it reaches out to people that live in the surrounding neighborhoods. We want people of all ages and all ethnic backgrounds, people with families, to feel that this is speaking to them."
Superfly also made major adjustments to the festival's VIP packages. Last year, the $250 "ExtraMooga" package promised more food without the lines, but failed to deliver on both counts. (There were even online reports about fistfights over scarce pieces of fried chicken.) In the end, Superfly refunded all premium ticketholders. "Last year, we looked at what was out there in the market, and there were a lot of things priced in that range," Mayers says. "But we realized that wasn't right for GoogaMooga. This year we're focusing on the cocktail experience." For $79.50, VIP ticketholders will receive five drink tickets and access to two separate venues—one with a better main-stage view—with different bars and mixology seminars. "It's gotten a great reception; we sold out both Saturday and Sunday very quickly," Mayers adds.
Another revenue replacement for last year's expensive VIP tickets are quirky, concept-heavy "pop-up" restaurants, including a renaissance mini-fair thrown by noted Bushwick pizzeria Roberta's. Patrons will pay $20 for a full meal with s DJs and other exclusive entertainment. "With all of our events we look for other ways to create revenue that work within the event and hopefully give value to festival goers," Mayers says. "We wanted to do that in a creative, immersive way that shows off the restaurants' personalities."
Sponsors, including Jet Blue and Blackberry, are naturally an important part of the equation as well, but GoogaMooga has made a point of incorporating them in unorthodox, unobtrusive ways, Mayers says. Lexus, for example, is sponsoring sports-style, giveaway trading cards that feature individual chefs, beer makers and wine makers. "Our in-house marketing group does all our sponsorships and we've done it that way from the beginning—because no one can sell against our property better that we can," Mayers says. "It's all about doing things creatively. The reading cards are an example of that. It's kind of like the cool concert poster. They help build a brand that people care about."
With the improvements, Mayers hopes that GoogaMooga can put a chaotic 2012 in the past and keep expanding in the years to come—perhaps even beyond its current three-day format. "The idea of celebrating restaurants, community, and local businesses and aggregating them all together, there's a lot of potential with that concept," Mayers says. "There's definitely no lack of amazing restaurants in New York, so there's plenty to build off of. I hope we'll continue to grow."

- This scene does not have any comments yet!
Unlike a lot of relationships where the dominant and submissive roles are clearly defined, Rico and Kapone both enjoy both giving and taking. The guys put a porno on the DVD player and then get naked on the bed, rolling around in a hot 69 with plenty of cocksucking and ass licking. There's a reason for the sloppy rim job action - because both of these guys are going to take it in the ass! It's Rico who takes it first, bent over the edge of the mattress while Kapone drills him in the rear end. However, then the roles are reversed, with Rico getting on top to bang his hung thug boyfriend deep in his well lubed sphincter.

Facebook Cuts HasOffers & Kontagent Out Of Mobile Marketing Partner Program
HasOffers and Kontagent are out of Facebook's mobile marketing partner program. The social network dropped the two companies for policy violations including holding onto data too long and not requiring advertisers to update their privacy policies to notify users of data collection, AdExhanger is reporting.
According to the report, the app developers that rely on HasOffers and Kontagent for tracking downloads and monetization performance of their app install campaigns on Facebook will no longer have access to this data. Both companies have been removed from Facebook's list of mobile measurement qualified companies and will not be allowed to bring on new advertisers.
"After working with a third-party auditor to review the practices of all our mobile measurement partners, we discovered that some weren't adhering to the terms they agreed to," Facebook said in a statement to AdExchanger. "As a result, we've removed a couple of our partners from the program. We take our contracts seriously, and will continue to act swiftly anytime we find out they are being violated."
This isn't the first time HasOffers has run afoul of Facebook policies. In September 2013, VentrureBeat reported that HasOffers acknowledged it had been distributing "non-aggregated and non-anonymized device-level data" about Facebook users to its app developer advertisers through its MobileAppTracking platform. The company issued a statement to customers saying it had updated the platform to distribute only aggregated and anonymized device-level data.
Guillaume Lelait, VP of North America for mobile marketing agency Fetch, predicts the companies' expulsion "will send ripples through the mobile app industry" as a significant number of "big app developers have been using HasOffers Mobile App Tracking for attribution of all channels (including Facebook) for measurement".
Facebook reported over half its earnings came from mobile in its Q4 earnings statement and continues to focus on building out its mobile business. As AdExchanger points out, the move to drop the two partners signals to Facebook's other PMDs, users and investors that it's taking user privacy and data security seriously.

ExOfficio Quick-Dry Travel Tank 54 55
Way too tight I did read the review about this tank where it is recommended to go up one size. I normally wear a medium so I ordered a large. When it came I washed it first, then tried it on. It fits, but barely. I should have ordered an extra large or extra extra large. It is very tight plus the waffle like weave is not that pretty. I will not order another one of these and think the manufacturer should not be so tight with their material. June 14, 2010
Great for travel, hiking, and different temperatur The tank is too skimpy to wear alone, so the colors did not matter to me after learning that, but this tank was the perfect thing for hiking at Glacier National Park in August 40 degree, rainy weather. Kept me warm, yet wicked away the sweat. As with all the Exofficio items tried, easy to wash and dry overnight to wear again. September 6, 2014
Quick dry tank Nice for hot climates, but runs on the small size order the next size up that you would normally get. May 1, 2014
GREAT SPACE SAVERS Took these on motorcycle trip 1700 miles, 6 days, small luggage, 3 states, 9 National & State Parks, with several mountain ranges and passes made packing underclothes and layers easy packing. August 29, 2014
Quick dry Travel Tank I ordered to go with my briefs, I really wear them at night, I"m at the age where I am hot all the time. I ordered the medium also. love them August 29, 2014
Very small When they say "fits snug" they mean it! I have washed it once, hung to dry - it will not fit a second time.. September 24, 2010
I re-purchased a large. small was a second skin the fabric seems to be great both for a little warmth but also cool. I just don't like tops tight like young people who should have bought medium. If you want your nipples to show thru the bra buy small. August 22, 2014
Love this tank! Bought this tank by accident (thought I was buying the pointelle tank), but when it arrived, I tried it on and decided to give it a try. It's my new favorite! Yes, the fit is snug, but it's perfect for wearing under things. In some environments (hiking, but not work), I'd feel comfortable wearing the tank alone, without something over it. (Bra definitely required.) Now I understand why men wear undershirts! I'll be ordering more of these! It's comfortable and cute. September 29, 2010

HARMANâs JBL Commercial Debuts DriveCore⢠Powered Mixer/Amplifiers at InfoComm 2013
ORLANDO, Florida â Providing even more comprehensive and cost-effective audio solutions for environments such as restaurants, retail stores, conference rooms and smaller houses of worship, HARMANâs JBL Commercial is expanding its lineup with the introduction of its CSMA mixer/amplifiers, five models that incorporate Crownâs exclusive DriveCore⢠amplifier technology for improved performance, lower cost, reduced size and weight and efficient operation.
The JBL Commercial mixer/amplifiers include the following models:
⢠CSMA2120, 8 channels in/2 out, 120-watt power output
⢠CSMA280, 8 channels in/2 out, 80-watt power output
⢠CSMA240, 8 channels in/2 out, 40-watt power output
⢠CSMA1120, 4 channels in/1 out, 120-watt power output
⢠CSMA180, 4 channels in1 out, 80-watt power output
âOur JBL Commercial mixer/amps are designed for places where a simple, high-quality audio solution is needed and an elaborate A/V installation isnât required,â said Craig Lambrecht, Business Segment Manager, Amplifier Business Unit, Crown Audio.
All CSMA models incorporate Crownâs proprietary DriveCore amplifier IC chip. The DriveCore chip combines the amplifier driver stage into the power output stage along with additional audio-signal functions, yet is about the size of a postage stamp. DriveCore enables significantly reduced size and weight â all mixer/amps are just 1U rack space high and most models are only a half-rack wide. All models can drive 8 ohm and 4 ohm loads and can be used with 70V and 100V distributed audio systems without the need for a separate transformer. All feature a universal power supply which enables the ability to accept AC voltages from 100 to 240 VAC, 50/60Hz.
The CSMA mixer/amps offer unmatched ease of use, with a clean, front panel featuring only volume controls for each channel, master volume adjustment, adjustable bass and treble controls and a power switch. All the volume controls are surrounded by an illuminated ring, making them easy to see and operate in darkened environments. In addition to balanced mic/line inputs, unbalanced RCA inputs and speaker connections, all units include RJ45 connectors for use with JBL CSR-V in-wall volume controls.
JBL Commercial mixer/amps are manufactured under HARMANâs GreenEdge⢠environmental initiative, conforming to lead-free RoHS standards and utilizing recycled copper, aluminum and steel, an energy-saving powder coat finishing process and other environmentally-conscious manufacturing processes. The DriveCore design reduces power consumption and powers some of the most efficient amplifiers in the install market. All models carry a 3-year no-fault transferable warranty.
HARMAN (www.HARMAN.com) designs, manufactures, and markets a wide range of audio, lighting and infotainment solutions for the automotive, consumer, and professional markets. It is a recognized world leader across its customer segments with premium brands including AKG®, Harman Kardon®, Infinity®, JBL®, Lexicon®, and Mark Levinson®, and leading-edge connectivity, safety and audio technologies.

Workspace virtualization leader RES Software today reported nearly 30 percent annual revenue growth year over year for 2012. RES Software experienced growth across all of its geographies, including a record number of North American sales and many new one million dollar-plus sales in Q4 2012.
RES Software achieved many significant milestones in 2012, including:
- A 37 percent increase in new license bookings
- Increase in global license bookings by 47 percent in Q4
- 138 percent growth in the U.S., fueled by very large deployments
- Completion of a 100K user license transaction
Klaus Besier, CEO of RES Software, said, "Dramatic changes are afoot in the IT industry as clients are demanding workspaces that more closely mirror their personal technology choices. But the consumerization of IT and hybrid end-user computing technologies also mean security risks and regulatory challenges - creating a perfect storm for enterprise IT. RES Software revolutionizes how IT professionals provide the innovative, flexible and reliable solutions business users are now demanding. We're changing how workspace technologies are delivered. And increasingly those changes are happening on much larger scales."
In 2012, RES Software implemented a strategic deal worth $3.5M with a Fortune 20 company, and signed a record number of new customers including France Telecom/Orange, Aetna insurance, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, and conglomerate JN Data; and closed its fourth quarter with many new customers – including four that each yielded one million dollars or more in sales. Major RES Software wins are increasingly competitive wins, with customers choosing RES Software for its more comprehensive solution and its outstanding customer support. RES Software not only virtualizes the user's workspace, but also provides an easy way to automate the delivery of services to the user's desktop, giving IT professionals much greater leverage over their costs, compared to competitive offerings.
As a result of increasing its development resources in 2012 through a new development center in Bucharest, Romania, RES Software followed an aggressive timeline of new product launches and enhancements throughout the year, including the launch of RES HyperDrive, RES Automation Manager 2012 and RES Workspace Manager 2012.
RES Software has also invested in its leadership with the appointment of Steve Morton as the company's Chief Marketing Officer. An IT industry veteran with more than 15 years of experience in IT software product strategy, Steve will focus on marketing and branding initiatives and will lead the global corporate and field marketing teams. Most recently, Steve served as Vice President of Product Marketing at Symantec. With experience from prior executive roles at Altiris, Peregrine Systems and Folio Corporation, Steve completes the leadership team of a company that is poised for continued and accelerated growth in 2013.
"Aging software platforms, the high cost and complexity of PC management, the rise of disruptive devices, and the virtualization of desktops and applications are pushing companies to search for simpler ways to manage how IT services are delivered to users," said Steve Morton. "Consumers of corporate technology services and the IT administrators that deliver them are realizing the days of small scale manual delivery are over. The industry is moving towards large scale virtualization of user workspaces, automation of services, and a user-friendly, cost-cutting "IT store" style of delivery. RES Software has many new and improved products on deck for 2013 that will further change how our industry does business. I am energized and excited to be coming on board at this time to help our products and messages make a profound impact on the marketplace."
About RES Software
RES Software manages and secures the key elements of a user's computing experience, independent of work styles and devices. By automating how IT services are delivered to virtual workspaces and providing a user-friendly "IT store," RES Software helps IT professionals master the impacts of IT consumerization, increasingly sophisticated corporate users, bring-your-own-device initiatives and cloud technologies.

You sure your lab isnt wondering why you're messing with his sweet roll?
Sometimes I would love to get into a dogs mind and know how they think. I think you are right about the sweet roll. They are easy to read. Every morning I walk her and she goes in living room and lays down before we both leave unless I forgot to take out garbage under the sink. Then she waits at back door to send us off. As soon as we see her there we know what's up. And grab the garbage. I call them Labrador Deceivers just not good at it.

The Southeast PMI rings in 2012
Kennesaw State University's Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) indicated the Southeast's manufacturing sector started 2012 off on the right foot. In some areas of the report, January seemed a continuation of the fourth quarter's gradually building momentum, but in the underlying detail of other aspects of the report, January definitely seemed to mark a new year.
Indexes measuring new orders for manufacturers and their employment levels saw healthy increases from December to January, while the index for production—a measure of current manufacturing activity—stayed flat month to month but continued to indicate a mild rate of expansion. The index for commodity prices, an indicator of manufacturer's input costs that is not used in the calculation of the overall PMI, jumped over 15 index points in January.
The January jump in the Southeast new orders index came from a higher percentage of survey respondents, indicating their levels of new orders were higher in January than December, but also contributing to the index gain was a decreased share of contacts reporting lower levels of new orders. The share of contacts reporting decreases in their levels of new orders has been on the decline since September 2011.
The employment index also had a sizable 4.4 index point gain in January. The metrics behind this increase are similar to those underlying the new orders index, but with a bit more of the growth in the index coming from respondents reporting increased employment levels each month. There was an increased share reporting increased manufacturing employment across the Southeast in January, but again, another driver of the index's increase came from a waning share of contacts reporting decreased employment levels.
The finished inventory index also saw a large index point increase in January (up 8.5 points). This increase comes on the heels of the U.S. Bureau of Economic Activity's (BEA) revision of fourth quarter gross domestic product (GDP) that placed a heavier emphasis on inventory investment in the fourth quarter. A significantly higher finished inventory reading for January suggests Sixth District states may be lagging the rest of the country in inventory-building, but hints that inventory investment may still be a net positive to first quarter GDP for 2012.
Southeast manufacturers' commodity prices seemed to diverge from trend in January. In the fourth quarter of last year, each month brought a lower share of contacts reporting increased commodity prices. Then suddenly, in January, that share jumped to 32.4 percent (from 9.4 percent in December).
Back on the surface level, the Southeast PMI's reading for January was roughly in line with the national reading, with the biggest divergence between the two for the month being the production and commodity price indexes. As usual, it's generally not safe to draw too many conclusions from one month of data, but it will be interesting to see if the momentum in the Southeast and national surveys continues in 2012.

Barkley reveals reasons for exit
ESPN Staff
September 29, 2012
Olly Barkley will play his final game for Bath against Sale © PA Photos
Bath fly-half Olly Barkley hopes to emulate fellow channel hoppers Jonny Wilkinson and Iain Balshaw in playing some of his best rugby when he moves to Racing Metro at the end of this month.
The former England fly-half and centre will play his final game for Bath against Sale on Saturday before moving to the French Top 14. He is contracted at the Rec until the end of the season but agreed to move to Paris as a 'medical joker' for the French club.
The 30-year-old has harboured a desire to play in France ever since they hosted the 2007 World Cup and when the opportunity presented itself after Racing suffered a series of injuries, he took it. Barkley insists the chance to play in France when he is still at the top of his game, rather than any at disillusionment at Bath, was his major reason for following the likes of Wilkinson and Balshaw across the channel.
"As a rugby player you have a certain value, a value that diminishes year on year. Once you reach your thirties - I'll be 31 in November - that process starts speeding up," he told the Independent. "While playing in the French Top 14 championship had been an ambition of mine for a while, I wouldn't have wanted to go over there and not perform well.
"If I was going to move there, I wanted to do it the way Jonny Wilkinson and Iain Balshaw have done it. They went when they were still capable of developing as players, of adding new skills and doing things differently to the way they did them in England. So when I thought it through, this seemed the right time to try it out."
Barkley added: "Racing were up the creek without a paddle. Pretty quickly, they were in touch with my agent and before I knew it the possibility of a move was there in front of me.
"I wasn't keen at first, to be honest with you: I was in the last year of my contract with Bath and I wanted to see it out. But after speaking to friends and family - and I include a good few of my clubmates in that description - I started looking at it in a different way. The chance to play in Paris, with a set-up as good as Racing Metro's? It might not come my way again. Not at my age."
Barkley, who won 23 caps for England, will make his final Premiership appearance after 160 games in the top flight against Sale on Saturday. He says it will be a strange feeling to make his last appearance for the club that he joined in 2001 and only had a season away from with Gloucester in 2008. But he is confident he leaves it in good shape with new head coach Gary Gold at the helm.
"It's been a weird couple of weeks, and this game will feel even weirder," he said.
"Right from the start, there was a good vibe around the place. I thought to myself: 'Gary knows what he's doing. Once we take on the new ideas and bed everything down, we might find ourselves going somewhere'."

We had a fantastic walk; this included snacks and drinks, a ferry boat ride and a thoroughly interesting potted history of Lisbon. Fantastic and well worth the price paid.
Doing what: Experience Lisbon: Small-Group Walking Tour with Food and Wine Tastings
Fabulous day with friends. The small group minibus was a real bonus as it is much nicer than being herded around on a coach. Though limited to 8 there was only me and two friends celebrating my birthday with a wine tour. We were able to look around the castle and attend both wine tastings without any other tourists/queues. The first was very small and family run winery. The wine was beautiful and so cheap to buy 4/5 euro a bottle. The second was larger and comprised of a tour of the cellars and wine tasting - the building was also a lovely place to take photos. There was a big contrast between them - one small and family run - the other much larger supplying supermarkets. Joao was a friendly and excellent tour guide - he gave us plenty of information but also left us look around on our own and did not rush us. The minibus was clean modern and comfortable. We were taken to Sesimbra for lunch via a lovely coastal road. Highlight of my holiday to Lisbon.
Doing what: Arrabida and Sesimbra Small-Group Day Trip from Lisbon with Wine Tasting
We thoroughly enjoyed this walking tour it was very informative and we tasted some delicious food and drinks. Our tour guide Sofia was very friendly and knew her stuff.
Doing what: Experience Lisbon: Small-Group Walking Tour with Food and Wine Tastings
This was my first visit to Lisbon. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. It was a long day but well worth the effort. Our guide, Andre was knowledgeable and amusing. We even shared the same taste in music! He took the time to introduce us to Fado music while we were driving between the different stops. My favorite part of the tour was the lunch stop at Nazire. We ate some really nice fresh fish washed down with Portuguese wine and beer. I would recommend this tour to anybody short on time and looking for an interesting variety of attractions to visit guided by top notch staff in a small group.
Doing what: Fátima, Nazaré and Óbidos Small-Group Day Trip from Lisbon
Great value and we made the most of the card in the short time we were in Lisbon. We travelled on the underground and overground railways and also got some useful discounts when we went winetating.

Joana was incredible, with plenty of knowledge and an obvious love for Lisbon and for Fado. I enjoyed every minute and now I have a great appreciation for Fado and have also made a new friend. :))

We had a fabulous tour with our excellent guide Sophie. Good food, good wine and good company. This tour takes you to some of the quieter areas of the city which are really interesting and more relaxed than some of the busier tourist attractions. Well worth doing!!!

Love Portugal!

This was a fascinating trip visiting a beautiful part of Portugal. One of the best parts was our tour guide Luis. What I especially liked was that he invited our questions about Portuguese life and history. I don't think there was one question I had - and I had many - that he couldn't answer with an intelligent and informed response. Thank you, Luis.
