As part of Covington’s Full Spectrum series, the World Music Fest is back and bigger than over. With over 40 acts and 150 performers in seven venues, this weekend promises to celebrate diverse cultures through music, dance and art. Venues include Chez Nora, Leapin Lizard, Artisans Enterprise Center and more all over Covington. Friday-Sunday.  

Dear Maija, I recently started drinking Hudy Delight because I think it's really novel to drink beer that was made in Cincinnati. I also think it's great that Burger is back in production even though it tastes like it has nickels in it. Anyway, I'm a little bit disappointed in Hudy after seeing their latest commercial.  

Lunch doesn’t get cheaper than 60 cents, and to celebrate their 60th anniversary, Skyline is throwing a party from 11:30 a.m.-1 p.m. on Fountain Square with 60-cent Coneys. Skyline will also be announcing the winner of the Skyline For Life Sweepstakes, a person who may eventually get sick of Coneys. And there will also be a variety of entertainment ranging from jugglers to marching bands and Coney cut-outs for you to take your picture with.  

Dear Maija, A couple of my bros got a hold of a state-used ID printing machine and are about to make mass money selling fakes to other kids at UC. Would you judge me if I got my Cancun money doing this?  

To celebrate the Saturday opening of 'Secrets of Egypt, Lost Egypt,' the Museum Center at Union Terminal is throwing Pharaohfest. Accommpanying a slew of activities is free live music from locals The Sundresses, The Kentucky Struts, Eclipse and Mia Carruthers & the Retros.  

As the only Oktoberfest in the region that actually happens in October, Donauschwaben’s event occurs simultaneously with Munich’s world-famous Oktoberfest. And much like Munich’s event, here you can gorge yourself on brats, sauerkrat, spatzle and all sorts of other authentic German offerings (suckling pig included). There will be a bunch of imported beers like Warsteiner, Spaten and Franziskaner, as well as wine. And, in a vein of authenticity, there will be music groups directly from Germany and Austria throughout the weekend. Friday-Sunday.  

Now that the dinosaurs have left the building, Union Terminal is getting ready to welcome another group of the long since dead: mummies. To celebrate the opening of 'Secrets of Egypt, Lost Egypt: Ancient Secrets, Modern Science' and the OMNIMAX's 'Mummies: Secrets of the Pharaohs,' the Museum Center is throwing Pharaohfest. From 2-10:30 p.m. you can "party like an Egyptian" with some of the best musicians, chefs, designers and artists in the area. There will be a Cincinnati's Got Talent! competition, an Iron Chef-style Cincy's Top Future Chef event, a Cincy Runway fashion show with a reprise of the 2009 UC DAAP fashion show and live music from Indie bands like The Sundresses.  

Saturday marks the opening of a long-awaited solo show (his last was in November of 2005) by Publico co-founder Paul Coors. The Art Academy graduate will present a collection of editioned silkscreen-based works along with a handful of drawings in Before I Start Singing. The artwork in this exhibit will focus on how form and content come together in “protest, consumption and agency."  

I find it completely unfair how the media treats our celebrities, and since you’re in the media I have a little question to ask you: Shut up, I’m not even going to ask you a question. You’re just going to talk more shit about Kanye acting like a dick or David Hasselhoff getting wasted.  

I recently sat down with Stuart MacKenzie from The Lions Rampant in a semi-professional setting (The Comet) to discuss the band's new album, 'It's Fun to Do Bad Things.' But instead of focusing on leather pants, his Sammy Hagar-esque blond ambition and Rock & Roll, the convo veered off the record into his love life and other things he doesn't want his mom to read about.
