Ever wonder from where in Italy different foods originate? Here’s a handy infographic explaining where you can find common Italian foods.
Colbert unleashed a blistering expose of Laura Ingraham’s implicit racism in her simple-mined political satire on Tuesday. The next day, Stewart raises the ante with a new segment called “I Give Up” in which he decries both Dems and the GOP for turning their back on 9/11 First Responders’ health problems. One politician offers a glimmer of hope for Stewart: former roommate and summer share Anthony Weiner, who serves as a proxy for The Daily Show host’s outrage at the end of the second clip. Kinda makes up for last week’s silly season of dramatic readings of Bravo transcripts and discussions of astronaut poop.
Charlie White interprets the song “Lights” from the new Interpol album. Watch it. Download it. Hell, it’s worth going to the band’s site just for the animation on their new landing page.
I like Wings’ version of Maybe I’m Amazed…. I love this live version by The Faces. Who knew it could be played with balls? Ian McLagan 1: Linda McCartney 0.
Respectfully submitted for the soundtrack to Wes Anderson’s next film.
just caught up with a few months’ worth of this very fun tumblr… kinda like the first perez hilton of microblogging. a little less crude and every bit as bitchy.

I used to think that business was war by other means. But that’s naive I supposed given that we are now acting like a traditional empire, extending our influence in increasingly war-like means.
The NYT first reported the disovery of mineral worth $1T in Afgahnistan, but in the clip above, Y! Finance’s tech-ticker hosts Aaron Task and Henry Blodget illustrate opposing but valid emotional reactions. Henry gleefully states that we finally have a strategic success in this war. An astounded Aaron asks, why are we doing geological surveys when we haven’t found Bin Laden?
As Henry says, maybe we’re better at finding minerals than terrorists. The truth of the matter might be that we’re better at making money off war than anything else.
we’d speak of food like porn in secretive sexual whispers, in moans and low tones. two religions. our prayers and favors carried out on knees. the philosophy of a good fuck or a perfectly seasoned steak. the taste of melted butter, pepper, a squeeze of lime. bruises and grill marks admired as art.
there was the weathered airstream trailer painted the colors of mexico where we bought one taco after other. the lime soda, the hot sauce. The night we pulled off the highway so you could sit on my lap in the drivers seat, riding me forwards back. The farmers market excursion randomly searching out mangoes and oranges. your lips warm from the sun. How about that old cuban guy who sells seafood from the the pier? live blue crabs and pink key-west shrimp. that was sex, baby. A salt water boil, steaming pots and clanking dinnerware. we can talk like this for hours. wet mouths and appetite. blood and wine, chocolate and wine, bread and honey.
pop’n fresh (one of my many cartoon doppelgangers) seems like the perfect illustration for this exploration of food porn. and who knew there was a mrs. fresh?
Os Gemeos and blu combine forces in a site-specific Picoas, Lisboa. The slideshow cuortesy of flickr user Gesuiz above might contain a few additional pix, since this was grabbed from his photostream. The best shot is the standalone above, definitely worth clicking through to see in better detail.
New Banksy in New York!
genius. i think it’s already been removed, so praised be the internets.
The Glimmers’ remix of this 30 year-old Roxy Music track might seem like an odd choice for a work-out… bear with me though. Bryan Ferry’s voice and this throbbing baseline make for a super-sexy track, and after all that’s why we all get on the bike — to look and feel hot. But it’s the tone of the song — all been-there, done-that, without any ability to stay away — that make it right for spinning. I usually follow this song with Little Boots’ Stuck on Repeat to make for a nice long session of intervals. Turns out that a bit of the ol’ same-old makes for a great sweat.
The Glimmers’ Fabriclive31 cd is available direct.
