Not that my Winter term, Collis pasta ass will be sitting on the Green anytime soon thanks to this nasty bout of weather (which in all honesty is probably a blessing in disguise, because I can now hit the gym and kiss my muffin top goodbye), but as soon as the artificial grass sprayers appear, expect to see me there camped out with books, reading up a storm and soaking up some Vitamin D-fortified rays.

Joannides, this year's SexDay lecturer, spoke to students about "positive sexuality" Tuesday afternoon, before participating in the seventh annual SexFestival, an informational forum that provides students with information about intimacy (and edible personal lubricant for kicks).

BlitzMail first debuted on the Dartmouth network scene in 1987. Over 20 years later, BlitzMail plays a crucial role in shaping the social dynamics of Dartmouth's campus, in connecting and uniting the campus collectively. Blitzmail fills inboxes on a daily basis with e-mails ranging anywhere from unread campus-wide blitzes (D2U anyone?) to highly personal, well-crafted gems (like the ones from your mom).

Each year, the Hopkins Center brings in innovative artists who offer fresh twists on jazz for its annual double bill jazz feature. Margaret Lawrence, the programming director at the Hop, said the decision to invite acclaimed jazz musicians and composers Iyer and Prieto was a no-brainer.

Sin gets a bad rap, but this Friday the Dartmouth Film Society will try to show just how sensational, sensual and blatantly sexual sin can be. As a part of its winter film series, "Sinema," DFS is revving up the raunch and doubling the pleasure with two feature films. The night starts off with Seth Rogen's latest foray into the lewd and taboo, "Zac and Miri Make a Porno," which is followed by "The Devil in Miss Jones," the little X-rated gem from the golden days of porn.

The exhibit is representative of the depth of the museum's collection and the devotion to the arts at Dartmouth -- four of the exhibit's featured artists are past artists-in-residence at the College. "Ruscha and Pop" seeks to answer the question posed by Kristin Garcia, Hood Museum assistant curator of academic and student programming, who is also responsible for organizing the display: "When does high art become an everyday object?"

Nestled away in a nook on the second floor of the Hood Museum of Art an Andy Warhol silkscreen of Chairman Mao, as irreverent and brash as his pop art renderings of Marilyn Monroe, looms ominously with thick neon lips and cerulean blue jowls. Welcome to the Hood's Pop Art exhibit, "Ruscha and Pop: Icons of the 1960s."

If you don't dismiss the affair as an intellectual bore -- as stimulating as listening to Beethoven's body decay, perhaps -- you'll find the Festival of New Musics is in fact a rollicking affair, full of zany chords, off-beat cadences and pioneering instruments that challenge the way we ordinarily perceive music.

Not indigenous to any one nation, Yang has always personally dealt with the complications of dual cultural identity, prominently featuring in his photography and narratives a balancing act between honoring heritage and supporting assimilation. But in "Shadows," Yang poses a greater question, one extending beyond his experience: What about the people who are native to Australia? What is the story of the Aboriginees?

The classical music performance group Aguava -- literally translated as "alarm" in Spanish -- chose its name to evoke images associated with the fear of flooding, with particular emphasis on the aftermath of a flood -- "the discovery and feeling associated with complete and total inundation," said Carmen Tellez, one of the artistic directors and producers of Aguava. Priding itself on the revival of classical music as an outlet for artistic expression, Aguava has emerged as a musical tangram -- constantly shuffling performers in and out of the group -- defined by geometric patterns, classical music and lyric poetry.

Houck has a certain Conor Oberst quality about him -- a penchant for the eccentric and a knack for crafting folksy melodies that make you want to let your long hair down and run barefoot through tall, wet grass.

For the next two months, Dartmouth will be hosting Vincent Desiderio as Winter term's Artist-in-Residence. Desiderio's extensive portfolio juxtaposes the duality of representative art and abstract art through a variety of mediums.

The theater lights dim. The audience is silenced with anticipation. Two disembodied pupils appear on the projection screen. They scan right, then left. Up, then down. The eyes with no face look at you, then they look away from you. Gradually a tinny beeping, heart monitor-like noise begins to emanate from the speakers and the dancers of Sola's "Drought and Rain, Vol. 2" assume position.

Having established a fairly solid online fanbase, which allowed them to begin touring across the nation and spreading their funkadelic, hiptastic sound, The Cool Kids still remain relatively unknown within the realm of mainstream music. Going into the show, I didn't really know what to expect. And from the looks of it, I wasn't the only one, as everyone stood (quite awkwardly) milling about waiting for the show to begin. But it wasn't long before Alumni Hall in the Hopkins Center was rocking, filled with dance-busting, finals-procastinating, Dartmouth students.

"Hair" first opened on Broadway in 1968, revolutionizing American musical theater with its racy dialogue, psychedelic attitudes and blatant disregard for convention and conformity. And never had sticking it to the proverbial man been so much fun. "Hair" celebrated an era of free love, where people protested the Vietnam War, dodged the draft and burned American flags. The musical celebrated the birth of the counter-culture, the hippies and hair -- long, beautiful hair, shoulder length or longer, long as God could grow it.
