Lollapalooza 2012 lineup (Jack White, At The Drive-In, Sigur Ros, Black Keys, RHCP, Afghan Whigs, M83, Weeknd, SBTRKT, Black Sabbath & more)
Lollapalooza (more by Grant MacAllister)
Chicago Sun Times reports:
Lollapalooza has revealed its official 2012 list of performers -- a typically wide-ranging smorgasbord of genres and styles topped by nearly a dozen mainstage headliners: the Red Hot Chili Peppers, freshly reunited bands Black Sabbath and At the Drive-In, the Black Keys, Jack White, Florence + The Machine, the Shins and Passion Pit, plus spotlighted electronic music including Swedish house titan Avicii, French dance duo Justice and DJ-producer Bassnectar.Check out the full list below...
The annual music festival is scheduled for Aug. 3-5 in Chicago's Grant Park.
Rumored lineups have circulated widely, as they usually do, and Lollapalooza itself stoked the speculation in recent weeks via a series of CTA and online advertisements that seemed to hint at who would be playing.
The ads featured lyrics from such acts as Sigur Ros, Santigold, Jack White, Kimbra, Twin Shadow, the Weeknd, Bloc Party and more -- all bands that wound up on the bill.

Passion Pit
It's now Saturday and Fun Fun Fun Fest's second day is already underway and streaming on Pitchfork.
Yesterday, Friday, while BBG was holding down the black stage (which Danzig eventually played), Tim (who ran into Ryan Gosling more than once), was handling most of the other music the Austin fest had to offer. A quick selection of Tim's pictures from Friday continues below...

DOWNLOAD: SBTRKT - "Wildfire" (Drumma Boy remix ft. Shabazz Palaces) (MP3)
Back in June, we announced the killer initial lineup for Moogfest 2011 (October 28, 29, 30). That lineup just got even better with additions including TV on the Radio, Special Disco Version featuring James Murphy and Pat Mahoney, St. Vincent, SBTRKT, Flying Lotus, YACHT, John Maus, Araabmuzik Baths, Zomby, Active Child and more. It was also announced that Brian Eno, part of the initial lineup, will be presenting Brian Eno's 77 Million Paintings and "Illustrated Talks" as part of this year's fest.
The initial announcement also included Suicide, Tangerine Dream, Hans-Joachim Roedelius, Austra, M83, Little Dragon, Passion Pit, Toro y Moi, Moby (full band), The Flaming Lips, Battles, CANT, Brandt Brauer Frick (who will be on a US tour that hits Glasslands), and more.
Speaking of CANT (aka Chris Taylor of Grizzly Bear), he revealed the song "Believe" from his upcoming debut LP yesterday. Stream the track below. The album comes out September 13 on Chris' own Terrible Records. He's also got an upcoming tour surrounding Moogfest which includes a show on October 25 at Bowery Ballroom. Tickets are still on sale.
Speaking of SBTRKT and Little Dragon, Drumma Boy remixed the SBTRKT song with Little Dragon's Yukimi Nagano on lead vocals. Shabazz Palaces is also featured on the remix (compare that to Drake's version). Grab the track above via Gorilla vs Bear. Shabazz wrote on Facebook today, "Besides the release of Black Up, I don't think I've seen one article on here create such a surge of activity as this Wildfire Remix has. Amazing."
Sampha, who sings live with SBTRKT and on his album, also recently released his own song, "Indecision." Stream the track below. Moogfest is one of the stops on SBTRKT's recently announced US tour that also hits Bowery Ballroom on October 31 (with Araabmuzik) and Music Hall of Williamsburg on November 1. Tickets for both shows are still on sale.
Little Dragon plays a BV-presented Record Release show at Music Hall of WIlliamsburg TONIGHT (8/16). The show is sold out, but if you don't have tickets you can catch them in NYC again on their headlining tour which hits Terminal 5 on October 14. Tickets are still on sale.

After waiting on very long ferry lines on Saturday (6/18), Governors Ball attendees were welcomed to Governors Island where the beginning of the day included sets by Outasight, Reptar, Passion Pit (DJ set), and Das Racist. The first of our three sets of pics from the whole day continues below...
The schedule has been revealed for the Governor's Ball Music Festival taking place at Governor's Island on June 18. The festival has artists performing on two stages (Big Apple Stage and Gotham Stage), but with no overlapping sets. The two stages means no long changeovers either though. You can run and back and forth and catch all of everyone. Das Racist have been added since the initial lineup announcement, though they go on pretty early. Tickets are still available. Check out the schedule, and a video interview with Girl Talk, below.

Suicide at ATP 2009 (more by Ryan Muir)
The initial lineup is out for this year's Moogfest, which is taking place in Asheville, NC on October 28-30.

The Flaming Lips, Crystal Castles, Little Dragon, Passion Pit, Toro y Moi, Chromeo, Austra, M83, Tim Hecker, and many others on there too. Tickets go on sale Saturday (6/4) at noon.

As you know, BrooklynVegan presents a 3-band lineup consisting of BOBBY, Alex Bleeker & the Freaks, and Prussia at Knitting Factory in Brooklyn on May 5th aka Cinco de Mayo (aka tomorrow). Tickets are still on sale.
Honestly, the show just happened to fall on Cinco de Mayo, but since it did we decided to join in on the festivities by adding an open bar pre-party that is open to all 21+ BOBBY ticketholders. The concert start at 8pm, and we'll be serving free Hornitos Tequila cocktails in the Knitting Factory front bar from 6-8 to all 21+ ticketholders who show up (you can also buy a ticket when you get there) (they're only $10). Come party.
And in honor of Cinco De Mayo, our pre-party sponsor Hornitos Tequila is also hosting a Mariachi Mashup contest that will give bands a chance to win $10,000 - for full details visit the Hornitos Facebook Page, but it involves covering one of five songs, "Young Folks" by Peter Bjorn & John, "Little Secrets" by Passion Pit, and "Surrender" by Cheap Trick included. Cheap Trick also made their own mashup/cover to kick off the contest, which you can watch (short and long version), with our party flyer, below...

BrooklynVegan/Feed the Beat Emo's Day Party in pics & video (Surfer Blood, Kylesa, Mister Heavenly, Trash Talk & more)
photos by Samantha Marble & Tim Griffin
Surfer Blood (by Tim Griffin)
SXSW started out for us this year on two stages with fifteen bands at Emo's for a free six hour BrooklynVegan day party presented by Feed the Beat.
On the big stage Anamanaguchi kicked things off right at noon with a high energy, 8-bit pop rock set to a dedicated crowd who showed up early to catch them. Fresh off the Bruise Cruise, the garage rockin' Turbo Fruits kept the party going. By 1:30, with a buzz already kicking in thanks to the free Sailor Jerry and Sparks we were serving, a Place To Bury Strangers brought it with their intense, high volume noise, and then Darwin Deez followed, replacing armed-cross spectators with pockets of dancers and coordinated dance routines on stage. By the time Chiddy Bang (who arrived a bit late and therefore also had to play a shorter set) took the stage, the large room was filled in and people were ready to sing along to the rappers whose setup includes a mic and drumset, and backing tracks courtesy of bands like MGMT and Passion Pit (members of whom were in the audience). The Vaccines, all the way from the UK, kept the momentum going with their brit rock, though they also played a short set reportedly due to worries over the singer's voice.
By the time Mister Heavenly took the stage, you were lucky to find a place to stand, due in part to the many wanting to check out Michael Cera's bass skills. Many were also multitasking, aka watching music and eating the massive amounts of free burritos that Taco Bell delivered through the back door and were handing out all over the place. As Andrew pointed out, "Mr. Heavenly perfored an appropriately lovely set, its two frontmen trading verses in their own styles." The two frontmen are of course Nick Diamonds from Islands and Honus Honus from Man Man. The group is rounded out by Modest Mouse drummer Joe Plummer.
And finally, as Bill pointed out, Surfer Blood "gave us an enjoyable hits-packed [headlining] set from their first album." That of course was going down on the bigger outside stage while Kylesa was completely destroying on the inside stage - I actually watched more of Kylesa than Surfer Blood, but BBG can tell you more about that...
Deafheaven (by Sam Marble)
Despite traffic issues that made The Roller open the inside stage on the late side, the Austin band's bulldozing doom thunder opened the BV festivities at SXSW with a roar. The Roller is one of my favorite heavy bands in Austin, so it was great to see this powerful foursome in action on a BV stage (until I can convince 'em to come up north!).
When the Deafheaven guys arrived, their tees were a dead giveaway. Sporting merch from Hate Forest, Hellfish (records), and Slowdive, it was obvious to see the band's influences, but their live show was definitely born of hardcore. Wide-eyed cocalist George Clarke was in the audience's face, or thrashing maniacally as the band tore through tracks like "Violet" from their forthcoming Roads To Judah and "Libertine Dissolves" from their demo.
The Secret followed Deafheaven, and their blistering blast-y down-tuned hardcore reminded me of breathren Trap Them, Rotten Sound, or Converge in the live setting. Furious blackened hardcore that was technical and powerful.
KEN Mode was next, delivering the hardcore-infused noise rock jams that shine on their new LP Venerable. KEN Mode would leave shortly after their set to headline Scoot Inn as part of a Thrasher show with Dark Castle, The Body and others.
Blackened electric swamp-blues from Dax Riggs kept energy levels on high before Trash Talk brought the crowd to a circle pitting/crowd-surfing frenzy. The band was short their usual bassist though, as Spencer was in the hospital after being stabbed by some "nazi motherfuckers" at a hardcore show in their native California. Despite the replacement, Trash Talk was undeterred and as incendiary as ever.
Kylesa closed the day out with faves like set-opener "Hollow Severer", "Tired Climb", "Running Red", and "Scapegoat", before calling it a day before a sold-out crowd. Excellent set from these Savannah greats, who seem to get better (and bigger) with each show.
All in all it was an amazing first day at SXSW that continued two hours later with six more hours of bands at Swan Dive.
Thanks to Feed the Beat, Orange (who provided the thunder behind Kylesa), Line 6 (the mics), Korg (keyboard), Vox (amps), Blackstar (and amps), Sensible Portions, Honest Tea, Raw Revolution, Sailor Jerry, SPARKS, everyone at Emo's, The Syndicate, Andy, Erik, Katie, Zach, Nevonah, The Roller, Anamanaguchi & Surfer Blood for being so amenable, as well as all of the bands for being incredible! Mostly, we'd like to thank anyone/everyone who made it out on a Wednesday afternoon... your support is appreciated.
Lots more pictures and videos from the whole day, below...

The closest thing we've seen to this on Governors Island is HARD Fest that took place with M.I.A. in July. This lineup, with more than one artist on the bill who can headline multiple nights at Terminal 5, is bigger though.
Meanwhile Girl Talk kicks off the next leg of his Winter Tour at a sold out Terminal 5 on 2/24. His last area show was at Wellmont earlier this month.

yes, that's Matisyahu & Tokyo Police Club...
Tokyo Police Club and We Barbarians played an invite-only show at the Wired Store on 12/15, much like Ra Ra Riot did a week earlier. It was the Foundations Artist Management Holiday Party and was marked by a surprise appearance from Matisyahu who joined TPC for a cover of his own "Miracle (The Hanukkah Song)". Ayad and Michael from Passion Pit didn't play the party, but they did introduce TPC after jokingly introducing themselves at Foundations interns.
After the Wired Store show, Andrew St. Clair joined TPC at Nancy Whiskey in TriBeCa where they played We Barbarians in a gentlemanly game of shuffleboard.
Matisyahu played a string of Hannukah related shows, including four NYC shows recently, and has a show coming up at Mercury Lounge. TPC have a tour coming up with Two Door Cinema Club which will hit Terminal 5. Passion Pit are playing Wellmont Theater on 12/30 and 12/31.

Currently working on a new album in a studio in NYC, maybe ARMS will try out some new material at the gig. In the meantime, grab the brand new Passion Pit remix of "Heat and Hot Water". The regular version, which you can get up there too, is one of four tracks on ARMS' free EP (get it here) which was released earlier this year.
Todd Goldstein can also be caught playing a solo show at Living Room on November 11th, and that's it for now for ARMS. Passion Pit have a bunch of shows coming up though, including two at the end of the year at Wellmont Theater in NJ. All dates below...

Passion Pit, Tokyo Police Club, We Were Promised Jetpacks & Suckers played (and sang karaoke on) Governors Island - pics
photos by Andrew St. Clair
The music is/was great, but part of the reason I trekked out to see Passion Pit, Tokyo Police Club, We Were Promised Jetpacks & Suckers on Governors Island on Wednesday night (June 30th), especially after having just seen 3/4 of the bill one night earlier in Prospect Park, was to check out Colonel's Row, the area where the show was actually being held.
Unlike "The Beach" where most of the Governors Island concerts are held, there was no sand - just lots of beautiful trees and grass and old buildings on either side. It was a lot like a college campus. The sound was great, the weather was great, and despite the approx-7000 capacity, it wasn't too crowded at all (though the lines for the ATMs were super long). The sides were lined with food vendors (mostly gross-looking food) and there were lots of bars set up all over. I wish they would do more shows there actually (Passion Pit is unfortunately the only one happening in the space this summer).
Colonel's Row, during Tokyo Police Club (via my phone)
Another reason I was really motivated to take the ferry was to see We Were Promised Jetpacks who didn't play Prospect Park the night before. The Scottish band did a great job warming up the crowd with their wailing vocals, wall of guitar sounds, and tension-building rock songs. Many in the young audience cheered along, though the excitement that the three openers experienced didn't come close to what I saw two nights in a row for Passion Pit who had thousands of people cheering, dancing and just generally going crazy to their falsetto-fronted dance songs.
I unfortunately had to leave Passion Pit early this time to catch Delta Spirit at Bowery Ballroom, but photographer Andrew St. Clair not only stayed for the whole show, he stuck around afterward for the backstage karaoke afterparty (the show was the final stop on TPC & PP's tour together). Andrew's pictures from the whole night, below...

spend the holiday weekend on Governors Island - updated July 3rd & 4th concert info (and how to take a ferry to Passion Pit)
"Gone to Governors" (more by Ryan Muir)
Wednesday, June 30thPassion Pit is not free. You must have a ticket to get on the ferry and the show is sold out. And by "show is at 6", they mean Suckers play at 6pm sharp.
Passion Pit
Updated Ferry Information
Doors open at 5:00PM, show is at 6:00PM.
ALL Ferries for Passion Pit will be departing regularly from lower Manhattan at the North end of the Battery Maritime Building ONLY starting at 5:00PM - 10 South Street, New York, NY. The Battery Maritime Building is easily accessible from the the 2-3, JMZ, and AC subway stops.
Returning ferries from Governors Island will run approximately every 20 minutes back from the Island all evening. Please note that returning ferries may stop at either the Battery Maritime Building OR Pier 11 (Wall Street & South Street) which is only a few hundred yards North of the Battery Maritime Building and also accessible to the the 2-3, JMZ, AC subway stops.
Note also that tonight's Passion Pit show is not on "the Beach". The Beach, where Yeasayer and the Morning Benders played free shows, is the smallest of the three "venues" on Governors Island. Passion Pit play Colonel's Row which is about double the size of the Beach. M.I.A. and Rock the Bells happen at the even bigger space which is more than double the size of Colonel's Row.
This holiday weekend there are three free shows on Governors Island. Note the updated lineups:
- July 3rd - Portugal. The Man w/ Alberta Cross & Hopewell
(Doors: 6:00 pm/ Show: 8:00 pm)
- July 4th - Rosanne Cash (2 PM - 4 PM)
- July 4th - She & Him w/ Oakley Hall (4:00 pm Show)
There is also a Victor Calderone event on the Beach of Governors Island on July 4th from 6pm - 2am, so I guess She & Him is over before then. The switchover of crowds should be interesting.
"Please note: Due to location of fireworks, they cannot be seen from Governors Island"
Lucero play a free show on the Beach with J-Roddy Walston and The Business (recently added) & TBA on July 10th. More of the schedule is HERE.
Passion Pit, Tokyo Police Club & Suckers Celebrated Brooklyn in Prospect Park - pics, video & setlist
words by Rachel Kowal, photos by David Andrako
Before the show started, the crowd in front of the bandshell sat and chatted leisurely to pass time, but when they saw Suckers walk on stage, they immediately jumped to their feet, cheering. In their cool shades and neon-colored clothing, Suckers had definitely embraced the outdoor park setting. "We're from Brooklyn. Celebrate!" shouted Suckers singer Quinn Walker early in the show. Drummer Brian Aiken thrashed around with such intensity that before long, his face was nearly the color of his fuchsia shirt. They only played seven songs, but the group harmonies, well-placed trumpet cameos, and over-the-top facial expressions from the drummer made for a pretty entertaining show, and the Brooklyn band's music proved to be a good introduction to the evening. Many of their songs had slower starts, but they definitely filled out by the time the choruses hit.
Tokyo Police Club's music was more immediate. Instead of building up their sound gradually, they seemed to put it out there up front, and their sound was a bit more raucous overall. Like Suckers, Tokyo Police Club really seemed to be enjoying the picturesque setting. It had been another hot day in Brooklyn, but it cooled off just enough to be pleasant for the show. "I hope you enjoyed the beautiful day in the park," said singer Dave Monks. "You guys should really check out these trees when you get a chance. The trees are killing it." And he was right. The trees lining the back side of the bandshell were waving gently in the wind as if swaying to the music.
Tokyo Police Club showcased a number of songs from their recent album, Champ. After their set had ended, the eager crowd tried a few different methods to get Passion Pit out on stage, but neither the chanting nor the slow clap did the trick. Shortly after 9:00, the tech guy gave a signal with his flashlight and yellow lights started flickering madly on stage as the band walked out. The production value definitely went up with each band's performance. For Passion Pit, each song seemed to have its own color scheme for lights: reds, oranges, purples, blues, and greens all made an appearance as the evening progressed. By the third song, a colorful banner (resembling the cover art of the Manners re-issue) fell against the backdrop to the delight of the audience.
For the most part, the sound throughout the evening was pretty good for an outdoor show. But the vocals did seem to be a little low in the mix - especially for Passion Pit. I'm not sure if it was just where I was standing or if there was a technical oversight, but there were times when I'd see Passion Pit singer Michael Angelakos open his mouth as if to sing but no sound came out. Of course, it didn't help that he had a tendency of holding the mic a bit too far away. (Were the officials trying to thwart the non-paying park goers from hearing the show outside of the official venue space?)
Regardless of the levels, the crowd seemed to be thoroughly enjoying themselves. Throughout the show, they sang along, clapped to the beat, jumped up and down, and danced. There was also more than one attempt at crowd surfing as the evening progressed and the excitement mounted. The band was clearly thrilled to be performing in front of such a large, enthusiastic audience. Angelakos paced and danced around the stage with glee and kept effusively thanking everyone in between songs, eventually saying, "People make fun of me for always thanking everybody, but we're just in awe of everything that's just happened in the past year. This show sold out in like ten minutes. We're from Boston, but this city made us. Thank you so much! This is the biggest show we've ever played."
For their encore, Passion Pit played a delightful cover of the hit 1994 song "Dreams" by The Cranberries before closing with their own hit - "Sleepyhead." Though the crowd left behind a wasteland of bottles and cups, the tinkling of the aluminum Bud cans as they rolled over the cement surface made for an oddly melodic exit.
They do it again, at an even bigger venue with the same lineup (and the addition of We Were Promised Jetpacks) tonight (6/30) at Colonel's Row on Governors Island. More pictures from last night, some videos and Passion Pit's setlist, below...

Dom, pictured above playing at a party inside Pitchfork's Brooklyn offices on Tuesday night, are in town to play two Northside Festival shows. The first happens tonight, Thursday, June 24th, at the Knitting Factory. Dom opens for Cloud Nothings and WAVVES. That show is sold out. After that it's Saturday night at Music Hall of Williamsburg aka the BrooklynVegan showcase with Zaza, Twin Sister, and Memory Tapes. That one still has tickets available. Both shows are also accessible with a Northside Festival badge (first come, first served, capacity permitting, etc).
It's been an exciting few months for Dom whose next scheduled NYC show after Northside is the 2010 Siren Festival. Their most recent show before Northside was "Fader Bowl".
Billy Jones (you may have read his recent interview with Dave Sitek) caught up with Dom (the person) via gchat on Wednesday. They talked about Dom (the group), the Pitchfork party, Cults, gingers (they both are), Total Slacker, salvia, Party Expo, merch and more...
Billy: sup man
Dom: nothing much. chillin.
Billy: i am ginger
Dom: sick! u kno we are less than 10 percent population
Billy: have you seen the M.I.A. video?

Passion Pit played a free "Kin"-sponsored show at the Classic Car Club in Tribeca last night (5/14). The location of the NYC event was revealed at 4:00 p.m., and by 4:10 there were people on line to get in. Less than three hours later they closed off the line that wrapped around 2 corners. Passion Pit in turn played to a capacity crowd, some of who were wet from the quick rain storm that hit while people were waiting to get in.
The "Kin secret gig tour" kicked off last week with shows by N.E.R.D., Asher Roth and Yeasayer in San Francisco and continues TONIGHT (5/15) with free Black Keys and Ting Tings shows in NYC. Look for the locations to be revealed on the event's Facebook page.

One of the scenes is recycled for another Jay Domino release from a few months ago and in two of the four scenes the girls look like they're not into the action at all. The technical aspects hover just below the average mark, and there's no effort put into the extras. Great gapes or not, the lack of chemistry kills this one. read the reviewMommy Wants It In The Ass (3.0 stars from 1 review)Starring: Jennifer, Barbara Summer, Yana, Cynthia VellonsStudio: Jay Domino ProductionsRelease date: 7/16/2014Previews: Movie TrailerMommy Wants It In The Ass reviews: astroknight review on 8/2/2014 This is a surprisingly decent anal release, although I'm sure it's a compilation instead of all fresh scenes. All four ladies look like MILFs instead of grannies, and all four of them give up the ass extremely well with some solid ass to mouth and gaping mixed in. The technical aspects are respectable, but as usual with Jay Domino and Juicy Entertainment there's no real effort put into the extras. If you want European anal MILFs, you could do a lot worse than this release. read the reviewCum Coded Ass Fucked Mommies 2 (2.5 stars from 1 review)Starring: Amber, Miki, Alina, Giorgio Grandi, Martin Gun, AssiaStudio: Jay Domino ProductionsRelease date: 7/1/2014Previews: Movie TrailerCum Coded Ass Fucked Mommies 2 reviews: astroknight review on 9/3/2014 This is a decent anal sex release. The action is solid and consistent, but never over the top great. The technical aspects are pretty good, but there's no effort put into the extras. This is a solid rental if you want anal sex and facial cumshots. read the reviewCum Coded Ass Fucked Mommies (2.5 stars from 1 review)Starring: Pandora, Alissa, Lucie, Tiziana BianchiStudio: Jay Domino ProductionsRelease date: 2/5/2014Cum Coded Ass Fucked Mommies reviews: astroknight review on 7/1/2014 This is a decent compilation of European anal sex scenes. You get some nice gapes and decent looking women, but the camera work is very inconsistent and the technical aspects hover a little below average. There's a decent bonus scene, but there's nothing about this one that makes it more than a rental. read the reviewDirty Anal MILFs 2 (2.5 stars from 1 review)Starring: Anita, Victoria Lanz, Cynthia Vellons, Vittoria RisiStudio: Jay Domino ProductionsRelease date: 9/11/2013Dirty Anal MILFs 2 reviews: Big Raider Fan review on 1/5/2014 Dirty Anal Milfs #2 is from Jay Domino Productions, and runs 2 hours and 6 minutes. The extras include just a photo gallery. In the four scenes, some decent-looking MILFS who like to get pounded in their ass show what they can do. Theres some decent anal and atm throughout, and this ones worth a look as a rental. read the reviewDouble Stuffed MILFs (2.0 stars from 1 review)Starring: Lilu, Alice Ricci, Lena Cova, Clarissa LeoneStudio: Jay Domino ProductionsDirected by: Jay DominoRelease date: 4/17/2013Double Stuffed MILFs reviews: astroknight review on 5/11/2013 This isn't a bad double penetration release, but it is so generic that it's easily forgettable.

The son of an English teacher and a biology teacher, Aaron has been reading and writing since he was very little. He has written numerous peer-reviewed and lay articles, but is now focusing on novels and short stories. His first novel, Vampire Redemption, was published in 2009 and its sequel, Vampire Rebellion, was published in 2011. He is currently working on the third book in the series as well as developing a few new intellectual properties. Aaron lives in Dallas, TX with his wife, Melissa, and their numerous pets.
Aaron started out pretty normal, but two years of working in the cadaver lab in college changed him...twisted him. Scientists theorize the fumes he came in contact with caused this shift in Aaron's mind. He began dreaming of dead people, and while most would classify these nocturnal battles for sanity as nightmares, Aaron realized they could be fuel. Fuel for a new era of fiction.
Aaron is currently exorcising his demons through writing about them and is sleeping much more restfully...for now.

This book is thought provoking and the character development is strong. The author's word choice is outstanding and there is humor and plenty of action. I would label it an "exceptional read."

The Salomon Q-96 Lumen Skis are playful all-mountain freeskis designed to give your confidence an immediate boost in snow you used to think was challenging. Utility Rocker provides precise transition with great flotation in powder, stability at high speeds, and ability to kill it in all conditions. The full woodcore maximizes ski/snow contact and filters vibrations. The versatility, powder capability, and snappy performance on groomers make the Q-96 Lumen the perfect quiver of one.
Utility Rocker Salomon's most versatile rocker profile, excelling in all conditions and terrains, Utility Rocker offers optimal floatation, fluid terrain absorption and directional stability.
Full Wood Core A wood core that runs from tip to tail offers optimum stability and powerful rebound, with maximum ski/snow contact and reduced vibration
Semi-Sandwich Edge to edge construction allows liveliness with increased stability underfoot.
Wider Edges Thicker edges for increased durability and improved shock resistance
Total Edge Reinforcement A fiber reinforcement is laid directly on the edges, improving edge stiffness, durability and grip.
Oversize Pulse Pad Elastomer layer all along the edge and / or along the whole front part of the ski. Shock absorption and anti-vibration for smoother and softer ski / snow contact
Honeycomb + ABS Frame Lighter at the extremities for better floatation, less inertia for easier steering and more control, and increased dampening and shock resistance
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

Stephens College was founded as a women's college in 1833 at a time when universities were not open to women. Although women today have options, we know that a women-only environment provides unique advantages.
Here, students receive challenging and relevant coursework, benefit from small class sizes and enjoy opportunities to network with alumnae and professional guest experts in their fields of interest.
Stephens women also receive innovative career preparatory programming and have access to numerous leadership opportunities.
Studies have shown that students who attend women's colleges are better prepared for their careers.

My partner and I have been dating for over a year now and have just begun to hit some rough patches. We used to have a lot of (what I thought was) really great sex. Then one day he told me that all that sex had been only mediocre for him. I was mortified and also ashamed because it felt like maybe he had never really want to have sex with me, he was just doing it because he knew I wanted to. Recently, he says that he might be asexual, but he isn't sure. He's trans and in the middle of transitioning, so he says his body is changing. He says masturbation "works wonders" for him, and he feels no sexual desire for me whatsoever. I've researched a/sexual relationships - the options are 1) me learning to like masturbation - I do, but it's not enough for me 2) him compromising to have sex, which reeks of non-consent and grosses me out 3) an open relationship, which isn't an option for either of us. I'm sexual. I want to feel sexy and desired and to have sex and everything that goes along with it. But if he isn't, what am I supposed to do? Right now the solution feels like I should just repress my libido so I won't need to have sex any more, but I don't even know if that's possible. I'm at an age where I'm being told left and right to assert myself as a woman, as a sexual person, as a queer person - but it seems like all of that's stopping now. If I'm not a sexual woman any more, I don't even know if I can consider myself a woman. That's right, this is potentially gender identity rocking for me. Please give me any and all advice. I'd appreciate it. - Sad, Confused, Terrified.
Most of us who work or volunteer here at Scarleteen are bookworms, and are also really interested in following popular culture to see what's happening, especially in terms of frank conversations about sex, sexuality, desire and fantasies. When a lot of people started talking about 50 Shades of Grey, we started paying attention. And when a bunch of media outlets started falling over each other to either hail the book for making BDSM mainstream and celebrating female sexuality or condemn it for those same reasons, we got curious.
As a woman who often enjoys being sexually submissive and as someone who has moved in kink circles, I set out many times to start reading the book, but shied away from it again and again. BDSM, in all its variations and manifestations, has a pretty bad rep: a lot of the time when we meet characters in books or on TV who engage in BDSM, they are either leather-clad outsiders (who are also often involved in sex work - think Lady Heather from CSI Las Vegas), or deRead more...
I am a 19 year old woman in a relationship with my awesome boyfriend. We are pretty much satisfied in our sex life, mostly because of all the cuddles and love. There is a question that I have, though. Usually we go at it (and do many types of sex) for a couple of hours, and then when we are ready to finish things, we both touch ourselves until we climax. (And give ourselves a great show.) I was wondering if there is supposed to be a point in the relationship where we transition from mutually masturbating to making each other come? I feel like this is something he wants since he keeps telling me to keep going until either I come or he comes. However, it is then frustrating because I know it doesn't happen. Are there some techniques you can give to help us maybe transition from mutual masturbation to partnered orgasms? Thank you :)
I had sex for the first time shortly after turning 20 (about a year ago), but I wish I had done it sooner. I know I had been ready and willing at age 16 or so -- the problem was just that no one was interested in me that way, but in the other girls around me. It still hurts, in a bizarre and surprising way. I feel like being a virgin for so long was not my choice; I feel like the decision was made for me by other people who decided I wasn't attractive enough to be with. To this day I still wonder if I'm intensely sexually unattractive, and if the occurrence at age 20 was just a fluke that will not repeat itself. How can I let go of this? How can I cope with late loss of virginity and stop seeing it as a personal failure to pass muster in terms of attractiveness?

This is my first book of poems, Transmitter and Receiver, just out from Nightwood Editions. You can order it here and sample a few poems here.
Here is a sweet thing poet Nick Thran said about it:
"What I receive from these transmissions is a convincing sweetness, a weird wisdom. This book reminds me of David Berman's Actual Air, but it's warmer. Raoul Fernandes writes like a night school teacher teaching us 'something about night itself.' It's an engaging class, an occasionally mind-altering class, and I finished it feeling more hopeful and human."

-Hoopsworld"Everyone seems to know about this thing other than me," Stern added with a smile. "My guess is that there's going to be some sort of formal application in the next couple of months and we'll see where it goes from there. … There are lots of things that have to be filed. In fact, I do know that the Hornets filed to protect five names, trademark protection. They have to apply to us, they have to pay certain fees, there's a timing schedule, but I think the Hornets may have a friend in the league office that may help expedite the process when they decide on a name. I don't remember his name, but I'm pretty sure it'll happen faster than those big old meanies at the NBA say it'll happen."

Child Safety: Child Safe Blinds & Shades
- Ensures the safest room for children
- Avoids unnecessary injuries and clutter
- An array of child and pet friendly styles
- Pick cordless operation for low heights
- Pick motorized for tall heights
Blindsgalore supports the Window Covering Safety Council (WCSC) in providing window treatments that meet the highest standards in cord safety to avoid any unwanted injuries or mishaps. The WCSC recommends that blinds and shades be equipped with a cordless option or for ease and extra protection. Blindsgalore recommends a motorized blind or shade for the utmost safety. If the location or large size of the window prevents a cordless selection, the WCSC approves a continuous cord loop. This option features a clutch-assisted lift with a looped cord that is anchored to the wall and remains the same length regardless of the position of the shade.

Fantasy Sports Celebrity Lounge
Originally Published: March 2, 2006By Scott Engel | ESPN Fantasy Games
Samuel L. Jackson, widely known as the King of Cool, is the highest-grossing actor in movie history in terms of box-office sales. Over the past three decades, he has delivered unforgettable performances in cinematic gems such as "Pulp Fiction," "Die Hard: With a Vengeance" and "Jackie Brown." Jackson has appeared as a Jedi master in the three most recent "Star Wars" films, and his portrayal of a drug addict in Spike Lee's "Jungle Fever" is hailed as one of his best performances ever. He also has been a memorable star in hit movies like "A Time to Kill" and "Changing Lanes." Jackson can seemingly tackle any role with great determination and success. But can he win a fantasy league? Can "Coach Carter" formulate a winning plan using a bunch of NBA players he won't be allowed to discipline?

Ragnarok Arena is a sidescrolling multiplayer shooter developed on the Source Engine. Gameplay is brutal and fast paced, with realism being thrown to the side in exchange for adrenaline-fueled arcade action. Relive the joy of playing in the style of older titles like Mega Man, Contra and Metal Slug with friends in eye-popping HD, and with a new control scheme custom-tuned for a keyboard and mouse.
God, look at all these losers playing a ~sidescroller~. Real men play First Person Shooters and Madden, and settle down with a heavy kegger and statutory rape.

Travel alone, travel with friends, travel with family - I adore everything about traveling. I love simple and cosy things, easy going people. I like music and parties, and at the same time enjoy silence and lonely walks. I am curious about the details, the smaller the better.
There is almost nothing that can spoil my journey, because I do care only about the things that are worth caring about.

Lent has begun! Sign up today for a Lent devotional experience.
Here are precious promises to the people of God, which look to the state of the Jews, and even to the latter days of the church. Preaching the gospel is God's call for souls to come to Jesus Christ. Those whom Christ redeemed by his blood, God will gather by his grace. Difficulties shall be got over easily, and effectually, as those in the way of the deliverance out of Egypt. God himself will be their strength, and their song. When we resist, and so overcome our spiritual enemies,
then our hearts shall rejoice. If God strengthen us, we must bestir ourselves in all the duties of the Christian life, must be active in the work of God; and we must do all in the name of the Lord Jesus.

Blessings to be sought from the Lord.

Machito is "carne asada deconstructed," said Madrid. Made of steak, smoked shishito, pickled avocado and Peruvian bean wheel, the dish was actually much more elaborate, requiring many steps for preparation, and techniques that Madrid learned through his northern Mexico upbringing.

I am searching for an RV to make camping with and without my horse(s) more enjoyable.
The biggie for me is a warm shower *bliss* and cold air for me and my dogs, even when there is no power. There is rarely power available when camping with my horse, and I am tired of being hot & sweaty. Plus my dogs are older, house dogs, and don't tolerate the heat well and suffer when left behind.
So, I was looking at some Class C RVs, and for size and price, they seemed perfect. I can get a 2008, 23' long for around 20K. It is a Ford E350 chassis 5.8L V8 gasburner equiped with a class 3 hitch, and the salesman states can pull 5000 lbs.
I currently have a Brenderup 2 horse trailer that weighs about 1500 lbs, so with 2 horses, tack & hay we are between 3000-4000 lbs.
However, I plan to purchase a 3h aluminum stock or stock-combo trailer, weighing 2500 lb +/- and want to be able to haul all three of my horses.
Currently, I pull my Brenderup with either my 2003 F150 4.6L extended cab or my 1999 Chevy 3500 van with a 7.4L gas engine, both of which struggle a little in the mountains, but do fine with normal highway driving.
Does anyone have any experience with hauling a horse trailer with an RV?
I can't spend a lot of money, really 20K is the max I would be willing to spend, and it has to be in perfect condition. I also don't want a super long RV, they also have 28' models, with a Ford E450 chassis 6.8L V10, but they cost more too.
Looking for help, anyone have info, ideas to share?
