...their husbands. What was also interesting, but not surprising, is that the vast majority of men who experienced low sexual desire were completely unwilling to talk with their wives, go to a doctor or go to a therapist. In a culture that equates masculinity with virility, it's no wonder that these guys are tight-lipped...

...starved sophomores, the absence of new transfer admits will lead to a complete lack of fresh meat. They will spend their senior year morosely re-reading their high school yearbooks and listening to the 2012 equivalent of Evanescence while sitting in the dark with the shades drawn.

It contains the requisite shots of Ben staring in wonder out the window of a limousine at the gleaming Las Vegas landscape—an unimaginative sequence that’s been repeated in countless other films. But it also features slick camera work that displays the blackjack game from Ben’s point of view and illustrates...

...polished eighth full-length LP, all the more impressive. “Destroyer’s Rubies,” the group’s critically lauded 2006 release, is one of the finest rock albums of the last five years. Each song was a painstakingly crafted wonder, sounding at once grandiose and sparse. Verses simply stuck; it didn’t matter if they were only mildly clever (“All good things must come to an end / The bad ones just go on forever”) or undeniably original (“Those who love Zeppelin will...
