Empress of SF. Why Should I Care?
What is this Empress thing all about anyhow? I’ve been attacked on corners on 18th and Castro by screaming drag-queens and supporters holding signs, ” Vote for so and so! VOTE!” It all most sounds like a drunken street fight the noise and energy level is so loud. I roll my eyes and move along. Usually I am purposely dodging drunks on the side walk , completing a few errands and run from the Castro ( I work in the neighborhood and at the end of the day, although I love the Castro, I need OUT!) My cynical self wonders what kind of attention these men in wigs want now and why are they running for the position of this thing called “Empress”. What’s their purpose? Why should I care? This is why…
So I’ve done some research and found out their whole purpose in life is not just to annnoy me.

There was quite the lineup of shows at Webster Hall last night (2/8). While Gang of Fourwas tearing up the main stage, a band that could easily fill that room (and much more) was in a smaller one in the same building, The Studio at Webster Hall. That band wasThe National, whose surprise performance in the tiny space was part of an MTV ‘Live in NYC’ taping that will be available to watch on MTV.com on 2/21…
As I expected, the band plays their heart out no matter what the circumstances are or the size of the stage. Berninger is much a exciting performer now, then he was back in the day. He screams, he jumps on things, he rocks back and forth and even tried doing a little crowd surfing. Can you blame him? That band has progressed nicely into one of the premiere American rock bands…
Despite the rather cramped settings, this was great show to witness. They picked all crowd pleasing tracks from High Violet, The Boxer andAlligator. Lucky You from Sad Songs for Dirty Lovers was a nice surprise… When Matt mentioned the taping for MTV, he insisted that all the songs were inspired by Jersey Shore. -[Music Snobbery]
It kicked off at 9pm, and the band left the stage around 10:20. Check out the setlist (all bolded titles were taped for MTV), and more pictures from the show below.

Hickory is One Hairy Bitch; Best of Show 2011
Shout out to AWESOME film
Round and round they go, prancing and dancing and the occasional acting out ( my favorite part of show). These dogs go through more primping than Ryan Seacrest. They, in fact borrow his hair products. I always have anxiety for the contestants owners. I want to have a reality show about over weight unhealthy dog trainers. Half the women and men running their prize dogs in lovely circles look as if they may collapse of overexertion. I imagine myself on the side lines offering them gatorade , marathon style.

It’s Hickory! Scottish deerhound, who loves to chase wild animals, is crowned best in show at Westminster dog show
source http://www.dailymail.co.uk
It’s been a claw-biting two days at the Westminster Dog Show.
But after endless elimination rounds and countless bottles of hairspray, a deerhound named Hickory has galloped to victory.
The five-year-old female took the ‘best in show’ gong after beating off stiff competition from six others, including a Portuguese Water Dog, the breed that captured the hearts of President Obama and his family last year.
Top dog: Scottish Deerhound, Hickory, impressed Judge PaoloDondina enough for him to crown her best in show

Manly Fashion: Adam Kimmel Fall 2011
“There’s an eagle scarf, a forest knit, and—merciful heavens—a Sasquatch tee.”
via www.style.com
When Adam Kimmel was a kid, the Pacific Northwest meant Twin Peaks and River’s Edge: dark, creepy mood pieces with enough wickedness to capture a rebel teen imagination. How reassuring that Kimmel’s adult experience of the region should so perfectly match his fantasy. That’s thanks to artist Dan Attoe, the man who inspired the designer’s Fall 2011 collection. It was wild in them thar hills when Kimmel and his wife, Leelee, went to stay with the Attoes. In the celluloid aide-mémoire that the couple made to go with the show, Attoe rides his motorbike through snowcapped majesty and gets set upon by Bigfoot—the consummate Northwestern experience, in other words—and you can feel the designer falling under the spell of this “backwoods motorcycle punk,” as he calls him.
