Remember how fun it is to skate? Well, to be honest, if we're talking old-school skating (circa sixth grade or so) I remember a lot of falling down and looking like a dork in front of a girl I liked. Skating is a more fun now however, with adolescence out of the way. And it's even more fun when you mash it up with live music, video games, and free prizes. That's the approach the Cincinnati Recreation Commission took with Friday's 18-and-over event, taking place at the Over the Rhine Recreation Center. The event will feature performances by [...]

Legendary blues singer Etta James who is most famous for her rendition of "At Last" has passed away. Etta is one of the movers and shakers of pop history and no diva is the same without her legacy.

In time honored tradition , The Pass welcomed Louisville into the new year. Blasting through a slew of yet-to-be released songs in preparation for their new as-of-yet untitled album (which is currently being recorded), a few of the Pass hits we've come to know and love, as well as a few incredible covers. Big things are ahead for these guys. Nerves Junior put on an incredible performance as well, similarly performing covers and originals, and the general consensus in the room was that it was their best performance to date. These guys are a young band still [...]

Je me lève avec l'intention ferme et déterminé de faire l'amour à une chaine hi-fi d'occasion. Peut être que ça parait simple, mais il y a autre chose qu'enfoncer son tuyau dans un lecteur de disques lasers . Il s'agit de faire les choses correctement, en premier lieu, ne pas la bousculer, en deux, jouer le grand jeu, version bachelor mais sans le costume en satin, en 3, jouer la carte musique, et là cow-boy , le fin du fin, c'est quand même de lui lancer un regard en coin : "tu savais que Berry Gordy [...]

Some 40% of employers now use career aptitude tests as part of their employee selection process and this number appears to be rising. This is because employers recognise that choosing candidates on the basis of a job interview only is very subjective. They know that it's not always the most suitable candidate who performs best in the interview and making a recruitment decision based on 45 minutes is not ideal. So many choose to base their recruitment decisions on selection test results as well as an interview to [...]
