500 Miles to Memphis is an American Cowpunk band from Cincinnati, Ohio. Previously, the band has received international praise for their ability to satisfy the musical hunger of fans in both country and alternative/punk genres. Right out of the gate, fans will hear dramatic differences from the previous album "Sunshine in a Shot Glass". 500 Miles To Memphis has re-invented themselves without compromising the blood, sweat, and tears from previous releases, creating an album that's nothing short of riveting. "We've Built Up to NOTHING" has cut after cut of instantly memorable hooks, screaming guitars, Beatles-inspired harmonies, and even a full orchestra. Produced by platinum award-winning producer, Erwin Musper (Scorpions, Van Halen, Def Leppard, David Bowie, Mick Jagger,...), the new cd is being shopped to major record labels, both in the US and internationally... as well as to film/television studios worldwide.
Their previous release, "Sunshine In A Shotglass" (DER-464) on the Deep Elm indie label also produced by Erwin Musper, has already yielded 500 Miles To Memphis tremendous success for the use of their songs in television, from placements on MTV's Nitro Circus [1] and American Movie Classics (AMC)[2] to being featured in countless YouTube "extreme sports" videos by athletes such as Travis Pastrana. Their song "All My Friends Are Crazy" is now available as downloadable content (DLC) for the Rock Band video game series as part of the Rock Band Network.[3] 500 Miles To Memphis has also received the praise of music journalists worldwide. [4]
500's mix of country, punk rock and rock 'n' roll has earned the band accolades and national exposure — you might have heard ""All My Friends Are Crazy"" on the video game Rock Band..[5] Malott's poignant and, at times, painful, lyrics are some of the most honest and introspective words to come out of the Cincinnati music scene. Of course, a man and his guitar are more than enough for a local dive, but touring the nation generally needs a bit more oomph.
Luckily, Malott is backed up several local legends: drummer Kevin Hogle and lap steel player David Rhodes Brown chief among them. You've probably seen Hogle around the city without knowing. He is one of the city's most prolific drummers, and for good reason — his precision and skill are unmatched. David Rhodes Brown rarely tours with 500, but his contribution to the band is vital. A Cincinnati staple himself, DRB's lap steel playing is a big part of 500's country roots.
Rounding out the lineup is Noah Sugarman, who recently moved to bass, and new guitarist Aaron Whalen stepping up for one of his first performances with the band. Sugarman heads his own band in his free time, so chances are high that you'll hear some originals from him in addition to 500's set.[6]
"Although both albums were recorded with Erwin Musper, producer of the Scorpions and many others, there are a lot of differences between this album and the last. The songs on "We've Built Up to Nothing" are much more intricate and deep than the last. We experimented with different time signatures and rhythms. There are a lot more vocal harmonies, which is always fun. The guitars are huge too. Aside from that we used a lot of different instruments. We basically went back to our highschool concert band roots and brought out a whole orchestra. Our keyboard player, Elaina, is a band director at a school here in Cincinnati, OH. Kevin, the drummer, has a bachelors in music education from Morehead State University where performed with the nationally recognized marching percussion ensemble. He toured the world over at a very young age. I played first chair trombone all throughout highschool. It was a lot of fun composing all of the auxiliary instruments. The songwriting on this album is also different. I went at it in a different frame of mind. I pretty much wrote what I wanted to say and hear. Basically I wrote with reckless abandon without worrying whether or not these songs would be on a top forty list. Ironically they ended up turning out very accessible and more catchy than the last." )[7]

The Red Sox may be closing in on making the first big splash of the winter meetings. WEEI.com reports that the Red Sox are "close" to signing first baseman/catcher Mike Napoli to a three-year deal. The potential financial terms are unknown at this point. And because the Rangers did not make Napoli a qualifying offer, the Red Sox will not lose a draft pick should they officially sign him. Napoli was believed to be one of Boston's top targets this offseason, as he would be expected to fill an obvious void at first base. He was a trendy choice to sign with Boston, especially given his dominance in hitting at Fenway Park during his career.

The Finnish Foreign Ministry has disclosed that they were the victims of a penetration attack going on over four years. The tool used in the attack was specifically described as "not Red October", however there were similarities. The research and analysis of the attack is ongoing, but it appears to have first been detected earlier this year. The attack targeted data traffic between the Ministry and the EU, and the Finns have rather nebulously said that they believe "China or Russia" is the originating actor.

I've been chasing hummingbirds lately, enjoying their spring energy. When was the last time you took a moment to watch these tiny creatures closely?
Here in Central California only one hummingbird species remains with us year-round. We call these miniature avian dynamos "Anna's hummingbirds," a name given to them by a French scientific expedition that visited California in the winter of 1827. The Anna in question was the wife of the Duke of Rivoli, a French general who enjoyed birds.
If you pay any attention at all to local hummingbirds you know this species. In the right light, the males ...

This openness, an awareness and understanding of community (perhaps best exemplified musically by the Mi gente! cry uttered by so many Latino artists), is also evident in the types of acts and artists performing at Verano Zol. The stylistic mash-up developed by DJ prodigies 3Ball MTY (Erick Rincon, Sheeqo Beat, DJ Otto) incorporates norte�o, house, cumbia, and tribal into the emerging trend/ genre of tribal guarachero. 3Ball MTY's approach to music (energetic, soulful, danceable) perfectly encompasses the spirit of Verano Zol. 3Ball's pastiche draws from old and new, illuminating the way the new order of pop music consumes and transforms traditional forms. Revealing the commonalities among Latin nations and underlining musical unity, 3ball's rhythms strikingly echo Peruvian cumbia and chicha. Puerto Rico's Chencho (Orlando Javier Valle Vega) and Maldy (Edwin Vazquez Vega)--also known as Plan B- will perform some pieces from their prolific, collabo-heavy oeuvre. The reggaeton duo is loved for their slick, modern, pleasure-based tunes such as Frikitona (famously sampled in Yolanda B. Cool's "Afro nuts"), Si No Le Contesto, and Es Un Secreto (remixed with the great Tego Calderon). Plan B's upcoming Love and Sex album follows 2010's House of Pleasure. They demonstrate the innovative nature of Latin pop artists and how Latino audiences are accustomed to and expect an array of genres and styles in their music. The "accident" of Latin emigration to the United States from disparate flags has advanced and changed the course of Latin pop music in form and philosophy. Verano Zol's myriad acts represent the pop artist's attempt at connection with his/her community at large. While prices for mammoth concert events that purport to represent underground and independent subgenres bleed fans with unconscionable ticket prices (we see you Bonnaroo, Ultra Music Festival, Lollapalooza, and Pitchfork Music Fest), Verano Zol keeps entrance fees reasonable ($15 early bird prices), reflecting Verano Zol's status as an exchange with the community instead of an exploitation of customers. The accommodations offered at Verano Zol for children Legendary Sinaloa band Los Tigres del Norte joins Verano Zol with their modernization of the norte�o genre. Their latest release, MTV Unplugged: Los Tigres del Norte and Friends charts the veteran band's movement into the present. Aside from the obvious methods of Los Tigres' attempts to stay current (with MTV's youth grabbing backing), MTV Unplugged shows how the band understands the importance of vitality and a constant effort to stay connected to the pop audience. Thus the updated remakes with current pop artists of classic Tigres del Norte songs: Mi Buena Suerte with Diego Torres, and Somos Mas Americanos (the astounding, striking lyric, "Yo no cruze la frontera/ La frontera me cruzo" goes deeper than mere pro-immigration rhetoric espoused by La Raza types) with the always opportunistic Zack de la Rocha. Los Tigres del Norte's incorporation of diverse styles and artists that matter to their audience and public ties them (more closely than would appear on first glance) to 3Ball MTY and Plan B. Other artists performing at Verano Zol include Carlos y Alejandra, Los Adolescentes, Eddy Herrera, K-Risma band and many more. Verano Zol takes place June 24th 2012 at Montgomery Fairgrounds in Gaithersburg, MD from 10AM to 8PM.

For the first time in 25 years, a Latin music equestrian show will play arenas the size of the Izod Center and the Patriot Center. The singers announced the upcoming tour this month during a press conference at the legendary Pico Rivera venue in Los Angeles, naming the tour "DEJANDO HUELLA...UNA HISTORIA MUSICAL." We are lucky enough to be the hosting city for the tour kick-off that will take place on June 22nd in at the Patriot Center with none other than Shaila Durcal as the opening act. Viva Entertainment/CMN/Agave Promotions is the organization behind DEJANDO HUELLA, and they are making the tour one of the most exciting event in years. Aguilar and Sebastian are two very successful performers and songwriters that play some of the most exciting and important music in the world. It is a testament to the enduring importance and increasing popularity of Mexican music, and a fan's musical dream come true. Joan Sebastian is a multi-Latin Grammy award winner and a top-grossing live performer. He is the kind of artist that writes songs to inspire his public, and his work is still one of his passions in life. Known as both "The People's Poet" and "The King of Jaripeo," ( Jaripeo is a form of bull riding) the singer and songwriter has been writing and arranging songs since he was a teenager, and has racked up hits dating back to the 1970s to the present. Sebastian is one of Mexico's top-grossing acts, regularly selling out venues on both sides of the border. As a songwriter, he has worked with such giants in the Mexican music scene as Alejandro Fernandez, Rocio Durcal, Luis Miguel, Vicente Fern�ndez, and more. He has more than a few awards under his belt, including multiple gold and platinum records and the ASCAP Silver Pen award. Pepe Aguilar is known for his exceptional voice, so much so that many call him simply, "The Voice". With more than 12 million records sold, 23 albums, and 7 Grammy's, he is not only a respected composer and producer, but also a multi-platinum singer and songwriter that has an impressive skill to inspire audiences with his sheer talent. He has also worked with some of the biggest names in Latin music, such as Lupita D'Alessio, Edith M�rquez, Guadalupe Pineda, Julieta Venegas, and Ely Guerra. However, his biggest influence and support came from his famous parents, singer and icon Antonio Aguilar and actress and ranchera singer Flor Silvestre, who handed him a microphone at the age of three during a concert at Madison Square Garden in New York City. Pepe Aguilar never put the microphone down and last summer it paid off when he was selected to receive his star in the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The concert is a match made in heaven, not only because the two artists have been important figures in each other's lives, ( Joan Sebastian was Pepe Aguilar's first producer for his 1992 Mariachi album, "Recuerdame Bonito", and has also composed many of his songs since). In a recent interview, Pepe Aguilar was asked what fans could expect from this DEJANDO HUELLA... UNA HISTORIA MUSICAL tour and he said, "La estamos haciendo con mucha mexicanidad, mucho romanticismo y mucha entrega" ( We're doing this tour with alot of mexicanicism, romanticism, and full delivery). So don't forget to join these two powerhouses on June 22nd at the Patriot Center! Tickets are on sale now at ticketmaster.com.

When asked about what he thought were the origins of Flamenco Javier expressed his philosophy that "Music is universal with infinitesimal details and indescribable hues. There are secrets on all sides." Though raised in Spain, Javier is a global citizen, having studied in New York City and traveled extensively. This international vibe has made Javier a master of mixing Flamenco with Latin music, jazz, and exploring the secrets of its origins through Indian and Middle Eastern rhythms. The moves are brought by dancer Nino de los Reyes. This man's feet are on fire; his moves are graceful and rapid. The son of renowned choreographers and dancers, Nino began dancing as a young child. He studied Flamenco at the Amor De Dios School in Madrid with such masters of the craft as Antonio Reyes and Josele Heredia. As if predicting his future success, Nino was cast at age 7 as a young Joaqu�n Cortes, one of the best know Flamenco dancers in the world. Now considered a rhythmic virtuoso, Nino dazzles as the main dancer in the show. The rest of this all-star ensemble consists of its musicians. Beautiful leading lady, Ariadna Castellanos is a young piano prodigy. She is the first Spanish musician to achieve the prestigious Presidential Scholarship at Berklee College of Music in Boston. Besides leading the tribute to Paco de Lucia in 2010, Ariadna toured the US with her Middle Eastern Quintet, and has collaborated with the likes of Alejandro Sanz. Her Piano Flamenco is a must listen. On the drums is Jose Antonio Alvarez Montana, a Spaniard through and through, Jos� Antonio studied at the most traditional Flamenco schools in Spain. His eclectic nature however led him to study in Cuba under Chucho Valdez and the percussionists of the band Yoruba. This has tinged his sound with that Latino saz�n. Latino musicians add a special flavor to The Flamenco Soul Project. Puerto Rican native Jereme De Jesus is the show's flute player. Jeremy is finishing his last semester at the Berklee College of Music and has collaborated with artists such as Jerry Rivera, Victor Mendoza, and Chucho Valdez. Alongside Jeremy is the Mexican percussionist Jose Andres Marquez whose talents also brought him to the Berklee College. As a testament to the far reaching influence of flamenco, the show's acoustic bass player is Tamir Shmerling who hails from Tel Aviv, Israel. The show itself will follow a timeline path, starting with the origins of flamenco and ending with the fusions that characterize its future. As one of Spain's most important cultural legacies, Flamenco forms an integral part of our Latino heritage. The Flamenco Soul Project invites you to explore this heritage at the Howard Theatre on Saturday, June 23, 2012. There is no doubt the show will leave you shouting, OLE!

The group will present music from the Flamenco Soul album they recorded in collaboration with the Berklee College of Music in Boston this past November Javier has composed for such renown artists as Paco De Lucia, Bebo Vald�s and El Cigala (on their famous Lagrimas Negras), and Concha Buika. His last solo album, Mujeres de Agua, brought together some of the best female voices from around the globe from Buika to Portuguese fado singer Photos courtesy of Spain Arts and Culture WWW.KESTADC.COM / 11 FLAMENCO B By Maria Veronica Cevallos Her origins tell us a lot about how her flavorful voice came to be. Born from African immigrant parents from Equatorial Guinea in Palma de Mallorca, Spain, Mar�a Concepci�n Balboa Buika found her identity not only in the poor neighborhood where theirs was the only black family in town, but also in her gypsy neighbors, Spanish copla, and her mother's affinity for jazz music. The rise of Buika (pronounced "BWEE-kah") as one of today's best exponents of contemporary Spanish music was a rather bumpy one. Starting out singing in local pubs and bars around Mallorca after a revelatory trip to London, Buika starts collaboration with other local and American artists, and dabbles into European house music. Then in 2000, in a strange turn of events and after recording her first album, Mestiz�o, she ends up in the United States working as a Tina Turner impersonator in places like the Luxor, Gold Coast, and Harra's in Las Vegas and is invited by Rachelle Ferrell to act at Club Blue Note. It is not until 2006, under the production of Javier Limon, that Buika finds mainstream success with her album Mi Ni�a Lola. The title song rose to popularity and sales, giving Buika recognition and credibility among critics, subsequently bestowing her with several awards, including Best Album and Best Production honors at the Spanish Music Awards. Her next project, Ni�a de Fuego in 2008, produced and arranged by Javier Lim�n, gained her even more fanfare internationally and established her as one of the most exciting voices in modern Latin music. Her latest release, 2009's El Ultimo Trago, found Buika collaborating with none other than Chucho Valdes, Buika has been touring around the world supporting this album but has also been keeping busy with other projects. Two of her latest collaborations include a duet with Seal called "You Get Me," and taping her screen debut for Pedro Almod�var's film, La Piel Que Habito. Buika will bring her unique blend of flamenco, jazz, soul and blues to the area at the Howard Theater on June 22nd. Photos courtesy of The Howard Theatre rushing with the likes of Nelly Furtado and Latin virtuoso Chucho Valdes, the artist know as Buika (or sometimes Concha Buika), expels all expectations of a typical flamenco singer. Her raw, cavernous, and exotic voice echoes her cosmopolitan make-up and emits a sound that is unlike any other modern singer. Coming to the Howard Theater this month, Buika brings a soulful repertoire of songs and an energetic performance that will have you enthralled for the shows entirety. legendary Cuban pianist. His subtle accompaniment blends well to reign back Buika's emotive singing style in this partial tribute to one of Mexico's great and iconic voices, Chavela Vargas. Her reinterpretations of Chavela's most famous and distinctive songs, like "Luz de Luna," "Sombras," and "Las Cuidades," are a clear indication of Buika's amazing talent to not only reinterpret, but to make songs her own with her poignant and exotic style. Nominated for two Latin Grammys for Recording of the Year (for the song "Se Me Hizo Facil") and Best Traditional Tropical Album, El Ultimo Trago is an unmistakable sign of her tremendous talent and virtuosity. 12 / KESTA HAPPENING MAGAZINE / JUNE 2012 SALSA By: Marco Torrey ohnny Rivera was born in New York on February 4th in the South Bronx. He is one of the most remarkable salsa singers of the romance era and a proud Nuyorican. Growing up in the Bronx in the 1960's put him in the perfect place to develop an ear for Latin music, especially Salsa and Merengue, due to the strong Puerto Rican and Dominican presence throughout the city. He attended Benjamin Franklin High School. After graduating, he moved briefly to Puerto Rico, most known as "La Isla del Encanto," where he fell in love with salsa. Soon after relocating, he joined a local salsa group while, at the same time, drawing inspiration from his uncle, Adalberto Santiago, who encouraged him to continue his education. Johnny returned to New York where he attended Johnny Colon's workshop at the East Harlem Music School. He continued to develop his voice and technique until joining his uncle Adalberto Santiago y La Orchesta. After being part of the band, he compiled his first album "Noche Caliente, Vol II". While still honing his skills, he was given the opportunity to record with several Latin bands and eventually, he was given the opportunity to join "Grupo Fascinacion" where he spent four years, recording new albums like "Tiburon" (Grupo Fasinacion, Rico Records) and "Salsa Vice" (Grupo Fasinacion, Rico Records). He also recorded two albums with "Conjunto Clasico" as the group's featured singer. Between 1988 and 1989, he recorded "Clasico 88" (Conjunto Clasico, Lo Mejor Records) and 1989 his last record with Conjuncto Clasico, "Mas Clasico Que Nunca." It was in 1991 that Johnny finally recorded his first solo album, "Ahora de Verdad" with producer Sergio George, while traveling between New York and Puerto Rico. His popularity rose enormously when he sang a duet with Ray Sepulveda at two Combinacion Perfecta concerts at the Madison Square Garden. The song "No Vale La Pena" elevated his career to a new level when it made the Billboard music charts. Since then, he has scored 15 hit singles, including Billboard #1 single, "Se Parecia Tanto a Ti." In 1995 he performed for a recordbreaking 300,000 attendees during his Columbian tour stops in Bogota, Medellin, Cali, and Barranquilla. Johnny has participated in countless Latin Festivals and is also involved with numerous charities such as the Teleton Projecto 911 in Panama. He's also recorded with La Nueva Combinacion and once again joined forces with Ray Sepulveda for a duet in tribute to El Gran Combo with the song "Son Para Ustedes" composed by Charlie Donato in 2006. Between the many successes, Johnny has also seen his share of sadness. In 2006, his wife was diagnosed with breast cancer, after which Johnny halted his career to stay and support his wife throughout her treatment. He did what he felt was right, putting family first. Decisions such as this have greatly added to Johnny's image as not only an idol but also a remarkable human being. In 2007, after his wife's recovery, he returned to the stage with his ninth solo album "Vivo Por Ti." His latest full-length release album, "El Noble de la Salsa", was released in 2011 and is available from Universal Music Group. Johnny Rivera will perform in the DC Area at V3 Lounge in Falls Church VA on June 22nd. Johnny's work has always been at the forefront of Latin music and is certain to continue inspiring listeners young and old for generations to come. If you are looking for a great Latin night out, this event will certainly fulfill your tastes!

However, that will change soon, because this year we are getting a special show that will change DC's affair with the Latin alternative hip-hop scene: La Mala Rodriguez will finally be performing in our area on June 28th, at the State Theatre in Falls Church, VA. Mar�a Rodr�guez, also known as La Mala or Mala Rodr�guez, is a Latin Grammy Award-Winning rapper that has gone from being just a super skilled MC to an eye popping Diva. Born in C�diz but raised in Sevilla, Spain, this diva is ready to come into our area and give us a live performance that will demonstrate just how interesting, versatile, and explosive the Latin alternative hip-hop scene really is. It's a well-known fact that the hip-hop culture has established roots in every single corner of our planet and Spain is not an exception. In my opinion, the mixture of cultures in that country has contributed to a full development of very interesting sounds and flavors that can easily be found in places like Barcelona, Valencia, Madrid or Sevilla. In La Mala's case, she has gone from giving us the classic hip-hop mixes of beats and rhymes, to a fusion that has gone from Flamenco rap to club dance beats and has gotten the attention of critics that easily placed her into a more open music market, the world music one. La Mala first broke into the market with her debut album, Lujo Iberico in 2000, and quickly became a popular name in the scene that was clearly male-dominated. It was interesting to hear everybody talking about the female rapper that had that "flamenco touch". I remember waiting for her performance at the third LAMC in 2002 and just listening to other artists like Blanquito Man of King Chango, or Fermin IV of Control Machete, saying how her show was going to be the highlight of that evening; of course they were not wrong. My first impression was a rapper that was influenced by the classic hip-hop genre with lyrics that talked about urban life's most common woes. Even her set up on stage was not that particularly interesting, but something was different, and it only took a couple of seconds of her first single, "Tengo un trato", to get everybody's attention and to confirm what Blanquito Man and Fermin were talking about. Then came Alevos�a, Mala's second album, and with it she gained even more international success even when the controversial music video from the single "La Ni�a" was banned from some TV stations due to its depiction of a young female drug dealer. By 2007, Mala Rodriguez released Malamarismo, her third album and featured the most successful and important singles of her young career, "Nanai" and "Por La Noche". In this album, she experimented with changes that not all her hard-core fans were happy about, they were not pleased with the musical fusions she was introducing and even the change on her looks became a target of the Latin hip pop purists. However, the changes paid off as she got the attention of many others that would bring her to take important steps in her musical career. Since then she has released another album and has collaborated with many artists and producers on projects that influenced her into a more diverse variety of styles when it comes to recording new material. Some names include people like Jota May�scula, Akon, Vico C, Kultama, Antonio Carmona, Calle 13, Tego Calder�n, Julieta Venegas, Bajofondo Tango Club, and recently Kinky. Therefore, if you are a fan of Control Machete, Sindicato Argentino del Hip-hop, Orishas, or Def Con Dos, I do not think you should miss the opportunity of check out the first lady of the Latin alternative hip-hop scene when she comes to The State Theater on June 28th! Just be ready to be part of DC's first opportunity to see what has been happening around Latin America and Spain with the sounds of La Mala.

From relatively un-ambitious origins, Los Autenticos Decadentes have gone on to great success and popularity in Mexico (playing in the Palacio de los Deportes and the Teatro Metropolitano in 2006 and 2007 respectively), released nine studio albums, had their songs sung and adopted by the rowdy "hinchadas" of soccer clubs across Latin America, and played in Luna Park in Buenos Aires not once but twice (in 2007 and 2012 to celebrate 20 and 25 years as a band). >>>>>> WWW.KESTADC.COM / 17 They have also released a live DVD titled Somos, released three live albums, put together three greatest hit compilations (with a fourth possibly on the way), and have worked with popular and renowned artists such as Fidel Nadal, Babasonicos frontman Adrian Dargelos and Javier Herlein of Catupecu Machu. Los Autenticos Decadentes have shared a stage with Attaque 77, La Mona Jimenez, Kapanga, and Andres Calamaro, among others. Their mixture of ska and rock (and many other genres such as cumbia, bolero, and even murga!) has led to praise and recognition from luminaries Luca Prodan, David Byrne of the Talking Heads and world music figure Manu Chao. Much like a less political, but more decadent P-Funk or Sun Ra, Los Autenticos Decadentes are known for their high energy, outlandish and extravagant live performances (and larger than life personalities and nicknames) which include costumes, crowd interaction, and an overall party atmosphere. The band formed together with vocalist Gustavo "Cucho" Parisi, guitarists Jorge "Perro Viejo" Serrano, Gustavo "Nito" Montecchia, and Diego "Cebolla" Demarco, bassist Pablo "Chevy" Armesto, percussionists Gast�n "Frances" Bernardou, Martin "La Mosca" Lorenzo, and Eduardo Tr�podi, saxophonist Pablo Cabanchiek (no longer with the band), trombonist Daniel "Ternura" Zimbello, trumpet player Guillermo "Capanga" Eijo, and drummer Martin Pajarola (no longer with the band) recording the first Los Autenticos Decadentes studio album in 1989. 1995's Mi Vida Loca, brought the group massive success across Latin America and as far and wide as the United States and Europe. Mi Vida Loca spawned such hits as the slacker anthem "La Guitarra", the murga borrowing genre-crosser "El Murguero (Tu-Ta TuTa)" and the great romantic ballad "Corazon". The band also hit it big with the tracks, "El Pajaro Vio El Cielo y Se Volo" and "Diosa". ccompanying the band's hit album were hilarious and raucous videos which would become Los Autenticos Decadentes' trademark. The band's music videos for their hit songs put the costumes, loudness, humor and flesh-baring of their live shows on display for a broader audience. The band's famous song, La Guitarra from the Mi Vida Loca record, united Los Autenticos Decadentes fun-loving style with a rowdy video and an anthemic theme. Likely their biggest hit (so far), and one of their greatest songs, La Guitarra exemplifies Los Autenticos Decadentes' musical style and manifesto. A humorous but certainly rousing tune, La Guitarra glorifies the experience of the son/daughter who has stayed in the house too long. Slight but charming, the chorus "Por que yo no quiero trabajar/ No quiero ir a estudiar/ No me quiero casar/ Quiero tocar la guitarra todo el dia/ Y que la gente se enamore de mi voz...", animates parental/child tension and aspiration versus conformity in a way which makes Los Autenticos Decadentes' popularity understandable. The band succeeds in affecting a relatable and fun atmosphere. Most recently, Los Autenticos Decadentes have released 2010's Irrompibles (Unbreakables) echoing the band's remarkable longevity and continued popular and critical success. Irrompibles sees Los Autenticos Decadentes employing a more modern and current sound. As with most of the band's albums, the musical variety in the album is vast, with disco, reggae, ranchera, Carribean and cuarteto sounds being evident throughout the record. Los Autenticos Decadentes perform Wednesday, July 11th 2012 at the Howard Theatre in Washington D.C. They will be joined by Uruguayan rock group No Te Va Gustar. Tickets are $35 (advance) and doors open at 6:00PM with the show starting at 8:00PM. Make sure you don't miss out! 18 / KESTA HAPPENING MAGAZINE / JUNE 2012 fp84.com WWW.KESTADC.COM / 19 DRINK By: Manu Mayor O k America, I think you're ready for this. There was a time when cheap beer and head-ache grade liquor ruled the land, but America's taste has graduated to the finer things in life when it comes to the brewing and distilling world. So what is the newest finest product? I recently attended a tasting at Zengo in Chinatown, you might think I'm going to be talking about a new whisky or a newly flavored vodka, but no, I'm talking about FIO. FIO is not rum and it's not tequila: FIO is pisco! In case you're not familiar, pisco is a grape-based brandy that originated in the port of Pisco in Peru. Some say it traces its history as far back as the 16th century and became a popular drink with the sailors that arrived to the port. However, it's popularity saw a short run when Spain decided to ban it's production in Peru in order to protect their traditional vineyards in the mainland. The pisco industry went underground and survived, but then a huge earthquake destroyed the area of Pisco and many cellars were destroyed. Although its history has been tumultuous the passion for pisco has prevailed over centuries. Today pisco, just as Peruvian gastronomy in general, has become an art-form. The production of pisco in Peru today has been perfected and the products are of artisan quality. For Peruvians, pisco is not just an industry it's a tradition and a source of pride due to the dedication in delivering an excellent product. FIO Pisco is a Peruvian distillery that is ready to delight its American friends with 100% pisco with no additives. Each bottle of Fio Pisco contains the finest and purest pisco containing nearly 12 pounds of Quebranta grapes. What makes Fio Pisco an attractive option to the American bar-scene? One word sums it up, VERSATILITY. Fio Pisco can be successfully mixed with just about anything you can think of. The amount of choices when matchmaking FIO, are a mixologist's (excuse the pun) wet dream! Like sangrias? Try substituting 12oz of the wine for Fio Pisco and you will taste the extra kick as the grape flavor permeates the fruit. Anything you can do with vodka, you can do with Fio Pisco. As opposed to vodka though, Fio Pisco has a smooth flavor. Let's admit it, the reason we came up with mixed drinks is to hide the strong alcohol after-taste of liquor. With Fio Pisco this is not an issue. Every concoction is made to enhance the flavor of the Fio Pisco and not to hide it. This liquor has a full and pleasant taste on its own. Try mixing some by Santiago Bedoya. The Fio team is also headed by three other young people who are honestly passionate about what they are about to unleash on the scene. Jabali Williams Marketing Director, Marques Mullings Head of Business Development & Carmine Malangone Technical and Contract Manager. Santiago is the link to the distillery owned by Fio in Arequipa, Peru. "The rich taste of Fio comes from the 18th century clay sills we use in the distilling process, as opposed to sills of other materials that do not hold the flavor." Santiago informs me. Every good enterprise needs to have a company mission, I asked Jabali what's Fio's? "Fio Pisco is not just about the pisco. It's about respecting the history of piscomaking while introducing it to new flavors here in the States." Marques adds, "Our goal is to bring this incredibly versatile spirit and tradition of Peru and put it in the hands of the best mixologists in our area, later on, throughout the states." Everything they told me about Fio sounds exciting, their energy is contagious and somehow that transfers into the mixed drinks they put before me. The ideas sound good, but most importantly the drinks taste even better. Yes America your nights are ready for a little re-mix, so step out of your comfort zone and try what you didn't know you were craving. I'll raise my Fio Pisco to that. Salud America! Curious for a taste of the latest and greatest in mixology? You can find Fio Pisco specialty cocktails in D.C. at The Gibson on the U St. corridor, Ripple in Cleveland Park and of course Zengo in Chinatown. Get the real deal, ask for Fio Pisco by name. For more info: www.fiopisco.com Fio Pisco, some moscato wine, club soda, in a pitcher and throw in some white grapes for garnish and you will have what is known as Eden's Elixir, you are welcome! Daniel Burger is the head mixologist for Chef 's Richard Sandoval's restaurants in D.C., including Zengo. Daniel is also in charge of Fio Pisco's upcoming mixes. When talking about Fio Pisco he lights up, "Fio Pisco is the most versatile spirit I have worked with. It mixes well with just about everything." He is ready to unleash a menu of Fio based drinks throughout the D.C. area. Fio Pisco was recently founded 20 / KESTA HAPPENING MAGAZINE / JUNE 2012 By: Cludia Silva hen you think about Peru what is the first thing that comes to mind? I am willing to bet that it is the image of the famous and impressive archeological ruins at Machu Picchu. The gorgeous view with the Huaina Picchu standing tall behind the Inca site that kisses the clouds and that has made my country a destination for millions of people around the world. I have only been to Machu Picchu once and it was a remarkable and unforgettable experience. Truly the kind of place that takes your breath away. But as striking and imposing as the city of the Incas is, it is not the only thing Peru has to offer. Not only is Peru a country that counts with millennia of History, being home to ancient civilizations contemporary to the Egyptians and Mesopotamians, but it's also a country with a culture that has been influenced by so many different races, inheriting customs from the natives, the Spaniards, the Africans, Asians and many other Europeans that migrated to this beautiful nation who welcomed all. A country with such a diverse geography and landscape that provide it with such a rich flora and fauna that new species are constantly being discovered. A country that's full of creativity, where artists, musicians and artisans are born in almost every household. A nation with a cuisine that speaks so loudly of our traditions and our idiosyncrasy, in such a tasteful way, that the rest of the world can no longer ignore it. The Capital of Peru, Lima is a mixture of old and new that reminisces of the colonial days and that welcomes the contemporary with open arms. A multicultural center where every corner of the old city takes you on a romantic trip to the past, where liberty was a new thing and our Criollismo was just being born. The new city offers you a glimpse of the future with the promise that the best is yet to come. WWW.KESTADC.COM / 21 Caballitos de Totora Paracas Lago Titicaca Lima Ceviche Amazonas Textiles ...as striking and imposing as the city of the Incas is, it is not the only thing Peru has to offer. Lineas de Nazca Chicama Countless beaches make Peru a popular destination for surfers around the world, with perfect waves that give them the chance to ride side to side with dolphins and a sunset that I have yet to see anywhere else. Chicama, a beach at the north of Trujillo, provides them with the challenge of riding the longest wave in the world while and at the same time sharing the surf with local fishermen in their traditional Caballitos de Totora. The impressive Andes are a geographical monument so elegant that the Incas chose them to establish one of the most powerful civilizations of ancient South America. With a mixture of snow and jungle the terrain is rich and full of life, making a hike through its magnificent mountains a must for all outdoors lovers. The imposing condor soars over the many colorful Andean towns, which, although founded by the Spaniards, are inhabited by local people who still maintain their ancestral traditions. Peru is also the birth place of the Amazon River. The Peruvian Jungle is one of the most bio diverse places on the planet, with thousands of exotic species of birds, mammals, fish, flowers and fruits that are still being discovered and studied. Remote tribes still inhabit along the shores of the river, as if time and evolution never affected them. Although a source for foreign oil companies, the Peruvian Amazon still house territories that remain untouched by the modern man and that are a perfect destination for the truly adventurous. When I am asked by my friends to describe Peru I almost always leave these facts for last. I try to describe it to them in a more personal way and so the first thing that comes to mind is, inevitably, our way of living. I start remembering family gatherings where the food played a role almost as important as the guests. The Pisco and the cajon where always present alongside a fresh ceviche and almost always some kind of dance. Always present as well were the many conversations about how it used to be and how it is now, about the old and the new, and never really concluding in anything that hadn't been figured out already. I tell them all about the places I've seen but mostly I tell them about the many others I have yet to see. The list is long, but not impossible. The intriguing Nazca lines are a site that can only be seen from a plane. The beautiful seascapes in Paracas, where one coexists with the hundreds of sea lions that have claimed the beaches as their own. The enchanted White City, Arequipa, that sits at the skirts of the majestic Misti volcano, or the peaceful Lake Titicaca where, as the legend tells, Manco Capac and Mama Ocllo where born, and with them the Inca empire. It would be impossible for me to mention each city and town, each national park, lake or mountain in a 2 page article. How does one do justice to each archeological site, each artist or each folkloric dance? The Peruvian territory is so vast and wide ranged that 1000 words aren't enough to describe it. I can only try to gather a small collection of facts and memories that will hopefully speak to you the same way they do to me. So with all these attributes to consider how can one pin point the one single aspect that makes Peru so unique? What is precisely what makes Peru a truly extraordinary place to visit, live, and experience? The answer is quite simple: Peru has an everlasting spirit that transcends eras. 22 / KESTA HAPPENING MAGAZINE / JUNE 2012 HEALTH aving a well balanced diet is not only necessary to keep your body running smoothly but it is also essential for good sexual health and function! There are many reasons associated with sexual dysfunction, but often one of the primary reasons is the balance of our sex hormones, which are linked to our metabolic hormones, and which rely on a constant supply of certain nutrients available to us via our diet. Important dietary minerals include iron, zinc, magnesium, calcium, iodine, selenium, chromium, arginine, co-enzyme Q10 and essential fatty acids (EFAs). Some examples of food sources rich on these minerals are: meats which are rich in iron, a � Chicken and redfor arousal, erection and lubrication. mineral necessary cheese all contain � Nuts, brown rice, eggs and tail is formed, zinc, from which the sperm's helping with fertility and sexual performance. fruit, � Shellfish, driedcrucialand dairy all contain calcium, for bone growth H by Jenny O and cardiovascular health and a very important ingredient for arousal, as it plays a part in sending messages to the nerves for the contractions of muscle during male and female orgasm. In maintaining a good physical and sexual health, vitamins such as Vitamin A, Vitamin B complex (including B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, and choline), Vitamin C and Vitamin E all have their own roles. Spinach, watercress, dairy, and oily fish all contain vitamin A, which is vital for healthy eyes and strong bones and teeth. Is also an antioxidant required for cardiovascular health. Pulses, nuts, avocados, and meat contain vitamin B complex such as B3, helps the circulation allowing more blood to specific areas, such as the penis during erections; B6 plays an important role in regulating sex hormone functions such as testosterone in men; and choline, which helps with transmission of nerve impulses necessary for boosting libido and energy during sex. Vitamin C helps boost sex drive strengthen male and female sex organs and can be found in food such as potatoes, ginger, beetroot (beet), citrus fruit, and sprout beans. Vitamin E is essential for healthy skin and its protective nature makes it vital for sexual health and vitality. It can be found in avocado, spinach, wheatgerm, and all leafy green vegetables. The idea is to always maintain a well-balanced diet, eat the right portions of healthy nutritious food throughout the day, and always remember that sex on a full stomach is not a good idea. � � � � WWW.KESTADC.COM / 23 STYLE By Daniela Guillen utdoor music festivals like Coachella and Sweetgreen's Sweetlife sweep the nation around this time of year.

I hate my job! I hate where I'm at in life! I want to open my own business and do what I want." I hear this day in and day out from so many people I meet through my travels in life. The complaints carry on and their words echo through my ears like a broken record. One unhappy position in their lives leads to another. At the end of the day, they are all, simply put, unhappy individuals who are lost with no sense of direction on how to live and love life. Seconds lead to minutes, to hours, to days, to weeks, to years. Before you know it, you look back and realize years have passed in the blink of an eye. Recently, I had the pleasure of speaking with Jenny Osoria. Jenny is an absolute fitness guru with a deep passion for life. Beyond her fitness abilities, she shines as an amazing role model for men, women, and children of every generation and region of the world on how to grab life with both hands and take full advantage of the millions of possibilities there are for everyone to achieve happiness. Born in the Dominican Republic and raised here in the United States, Jenny has been in the fitness industry for 11 years. She started out working the front desk at a fitness center. Since then, she has owned her own business for eight years, however, her career wasn't something that just fell into her lap. She recollected that she has always been active and said (in reference to fitness), "It's natural, it's what I breathe." She was published in the Washington Post at a young age for her fitness accomplishments. Currently, she is a fitness instructor, dancer, and holds the state title of Miss Virginia- Belleza Latina Internacional 2012-13. In July, she will head to Orlando, Florida for another competition. When asked where her inspiration and drive comes from to help so many people, she said it's "the interaction with the people." The positive reinforcement she gains from her clients gives her a physical and mental high. For Jenny, her joy comes from serving people, seeing their physical and mental successes, and knowing that she was a part of making their lives better. "People die to make money ... then they have to use that money because they are dying. Don't make money to die, make it to live. You have to live now! It's about you walking the trail and what you have to do to get to that goal ... Nothing is impossible. If you fall down, get up! If you fall down again and hurt your knee very badly, put ice on it and get back up! No one is going to do it for you!" Jenny's energy doesn't just stop with her career; Jenny is also a supporter of Los Hijos de Maria in the DMV. This is a non-profit that supports young girls in pageants here. She helps them learn to dance, walk, and speak; all that goes into winning a pageant. All of the proceeds from the pageants go towards helping those in the Dominican Republic, ranging from school supplies to blankets to other basic necessities of life. This year, she is going to her home country to hand deliver the items to those in need. As a token of advice, she offers the world a suggestion on achieving the same satisfaction from life and a career in general: "It has to be a love for what you do." Looking back, she wanted to thank those greatest inspirations in her life which have helped her become who she is today. First, to her mother, Francisca Almonte, "who has made me this strong." Then, to Leo Gunawan, who "captures my beautiful images," followed by her recognition of Juliza Encarnacion, who is "my coach who guides me in my organization and pageants.", thanks to Abema Music, "one of my sponsors.", ",all my students and clients who trust their life to me", Lastly C. M. Garcia who everyday shows me the essence to LIVE OUT LOUD" After reading Jenny's story, my question to you is this: Do you go through the daily tedious routine you call life, or do you LIVE?

Inmate could face charge of filing false police report
Stutts said Tuesday at a press conference that her department will turn over information to the Nueces County Districts Attorney Office for possible false police report charges.
Stutts would not release the mans name Tuesday pending an opinion from the County Attorneys Office, but did say he remained in the Nueces County Jail on burglary charges.
The inmate told sheriffs officials that Edwin Vega, 23, sexually assaulted him Sunday. The unnamed man was then taken to a hospital for screening, and the department investigated the charges, Stutts said.
He changed his story Monday night after being interviewed several times, she said.
Vega, who was in jail late Tuesday on a $2,500 bond on a charge of engaging in organized criminal activity, could be charged with simple assault for the incident, Stutts said. Sheriffs officials believe the inmate who was taken to the hospital concocted the story after the two had a fight.
"We take all allegations seriously," Stutts said. "We will not and cannot make any assumptions."

Few towns have had to face up to the history of national socialism as much as Nuremberg. The buildings still standing today on the former rally grounds of the Nazi party testify to the régime's delusions of grandeur. The documentation centre opened in 2001. Its modern layout, diverse displays and educational focus provide a clear insight into the structure and development of the Nazi party, the history of these rally grounds, as well as the town's period of Nazi history.

function & jerome sydenham - function vs. sydenham remixes
function vs. sydenham remixes
catalog number:
8.57 €
out of stock
One of Ibadan's most popular releases of 2010, resurfaces with three stunning remixes from a trio of artist who've been been defending the free world of underground Techno: Planetary Assault Systems, Silent Servant and Xhin. ''White Light' was the track that had everyone believing their last breath was around the corner, so who better than Planetary Assault Systems to execute the rework. An easy task for a producer who is used to destroying entire planets. Silent Servant creates a nice plateau effect with his remix of 'White Light'. Instead of taking this one off soaring into another galaxy, he uses the stabs and pads to create slowly building set-up tune hypnotizing the crowd, before the next impending crushing blow. Singapore's most notable Techno talent, Xhin, takes 'Drift' into the direction of the unknown with a dark and eerie vibe, teetering on the edge of experimental. This isn't your typical left field fodder, as implemented by a tight structure and an even tighter bass rhythm that is capable of disrupting any clubs bass bins. An absolute top-shelf of remixers taking cracks at original tracks like these, undoubtedly makes this release one of this years' noteworthy events for the Techno lovers.

So I rode her today..In a full cheek snaffle, Single jointed and no flash. I rode her in the smaller arena. Her trotting was less rushed but of course that could have been because the arena is not so big. But she still had her head in the air while trotting. I cantered her once and well nearly ended up on the ground. She put her head down so low and then decided to cut corners and left me hanging on her neck. I have now noticed she seems to raise her head a tiny bit going straight but once we get to the corner she pulls it right down. And it really feels like she is going to buck but she doesn't =/
Her saddle is also slipping back a lot. I put it at the top of her withers and before I even got on it had slipped off of her withers altogether.
And well mounting her is a big pain. When I go near the mounting block she swings her butt away from it so I cannot get on. Then she walks forwards and backwards etc. I pretty much have to stretch to get on. Today she decided to walk off before I even had my leg over. She is awful ignorant. And before I get on when I go to tighten the girth she walks away. I dunno why...even when I go to pull the stirrups down she walks away. It is so frustrating. But if she tries it tomorrow I am going to lunge the legs off of her and she if she will still do it.
But overall I am happy with how today went. I was alot more relaxed while trotting because she was slower. And she actually managed to trot a few laps without attempting to stop. I am going to forget about cantering for a while because I don't want to end up on the ground

That said, I still can't see any good reason for doing this. "Management-imposed restraints" could mean anything.
Well, "management-imposed restraints" doesn't actually answer the question of why, so your question wasn't unreasonable.
Based on the trajectory of Slashdot after the Dice takeover, though, presumably the real answer for "why" is "because our managers are total morons."

In her mid-30s Erin Kramp thought long and carefully about what she wanted to leave her daughter, Peyton. Comfort, advice and humor were among the assets Erin wanted to bestow, all adding up to a portrait of who she was. And so she began to make tapes, creating messages that her daughter could count on receiving years into the future.
"When you're picking your career," Erin advised in one message, "don't pick what you think I would want you to do. Don't pick what you know would make Dad happy for you to pick. I want you to pick something, whether you're schooled in it or not, that you have passion for."
At the time, in 1997, Erin required a steady oxygen supply because she was dying of cancer that had spread to her lungs. Her focus on creating a legacy as a mother was unshakable, from the first message she recorded.
"I had to get up, and I had to cut three times," she told me then, "because I kept crying, thinking I can't believe I'm talking to her as if I wasn't here. Then, I started really getting into it, and started, you know, thinking ... this is my only chance to really communicate with her some of the things I think are important."
Erin was raised in Dallas and married entrepreneur Doug Kramp in 1987. They were a vivacious, charismatic, adventurous couple. She was a fast-thinking venture capitalist who advised Doug on business deals. Their daughter, Peyton, was born five years into the marriage, on March 5, 1992. Two years later, Erin discovered a lump in her breast -- a malignant cancer diagnosed as fatal. She immediately went to work to try to prepare herself, her husband and her daughter for what was to come.
"There's two nurses and a doctor," Doug Kramp remembered, "and Erin has already got a pad of paper and a pen, and she's grilling them on questions. 'OK now, who do I need to talk to?' And I just remember thinking, 'Oh my gosh, she's already attacking this thing.'"
Erin and Doug wrote a book called "Living With the End in Mind" -- a checklist for preparing for death and embracing mortality.
Doug assumed a lot of the tasks that were part of Peyton's daily routines.
"Doug started taking over the role of putting Peyton to bed, so that if I wasn't around, she would have the same routine," Erin said. "When she falls asleep, I come and pray over her at night, at the foot of her bed."
In one of her tapes, Erin promised Peyton, "Love will sustain you more than anything, and you are the most privileged person I know because of all the love that comes your way."
Erin began thinking of her daughter in two ways: as the carefree preschool child she was and as the young woman she would be when she viewed her mother's tapes in the future.
Erin acknowledged that going over all the details related to dying may sound unsettling to people who fear that anticipating death will hasten it, but, she said, doing so eliminated stress that could have plagued her.
"What would happen if I passed away? Who would take care of my child? There's a huge sense of panic. But once I finished [preparing], the panic was all gone. Everything was in place."

"When our reviewer and contributing editor Rob Cowan hails a new recording of this repertoire as being on the same level as great recordings by the likes of Gil Shaham and Thomas Zehetmair, one immediately takes notice. And this is a stunning disc. Steinbacher, Julia Fischer's successor on the Pentatone label, presents interpretations of detailed, concentrated power." - Gramophone on PTC5186350 (Editor's Choice, November 2010) "Music fans may already know her discs for Orfeo and on this evidence - sensitive, alert performances - she's top-class." - Gramophone on PTC5186353 (Editor's Choice, January 2010)
BBC Music Magazine
There's a strongly lyrical impulse in Arabella Steinbacher's playing which is suited to the intimate character of these Sonatas...Robert Kulek is an admirable duo partner and projects both the richness and clarity of texture in Brahms's writing through a carefully controlled use of the pedal, responding wit sensitivity to the subtle inflections in Steinbacher's phrasing. Pentatone's recording has real presence.
Classic FM Magazine
Arabella Steinbacher and Robert Kulek approach these timeless scores with a velvet-gloved tenderness and affection that dispels any sense of Brahms being an 'intellectual' composer. Steinbacher produces a sensuous sound of beguiling purity that sends Brahms's rich cantabile lines soaring aloft and receives wonderfully sympathetic support from Kulek...in terms of sheer beauty of sound Steinbacher and Kulek have no rivals.
International Record Review
How far you enjoy this disc will depend on how you like your Brahms served up. There's much to admire in Steinbacher's sound and you may not find the deliberate tempos as indulgent as I did, in which case proceed with great haste.
