Dear Disembodied Penis, We know: Chatroulette is not enough for you. But we’re afraid that The16Faces.com, a new webcam portal based out of Valley Forge, PA, isn’t going to help you. “Developed for people who are tired of spending hours on other random video chat sites to find a chat partner” — in other words, [...]

YES! We are so excited for sweater weather. What will it be this year Philadelphia? Will you retire your faux leather jackets? Has lumberjack plaid reached its threshold? Ladies, can you please stop wearing sweaters that look like you woke up and threw a blanket over your  shoulders?

XPN‘s The Key is truly a gift. There, you can download Kurt Vile‘s new single “In My Time.” The Philly native will be releasing new songs digitally next week, and the rest to follow on November 9th.

“From now on, Philadelphia streets will not be resurfaced without considering pedestrians and bicyclists.” Phase II of the plan has already started, and points out many different ways for streets to accommodate cyclists, and how it can be implemented.

Former home and party pad of our beloved DJ, who has of course left us for L.A., PhilaMOCA (Philadelphia Mausoleum of Contemporary Art) has opened a venue for art, screenings and performances at 531 North 12 St. With all the hubbub of Design Philadelphia, we missed the opening of this [...]

On Sunday at the Prince Music Theater, Pete Rose will arrive at 1:45pm, shortly after the press, to answer questions about the premier of 4192: The Crowning Of The Hit King.  The film features interviews from former teammates Mike Schmidt, Tony Perez and Rose himself.
