1. French actor, Gerard Depardieu used to look very, very different. Here he is with Robert DeNiro in the 70s: 2. This 17th century Desk with Secret Compartments is mind-boggling: The Metropolitan Museum of Art is in its last few weeks of the ‘Extravagant Inventions’ exhibition. Don’t miss it if you’re in NYC! Showing until [...]
If you can’t accept the holidays are over, say I! Today was spent mostly getting lost on the internet and here is the result… 1. What Marilyn Monroe could have looked like as a brunette. Pretty smokin! Do blondes really have more fun?! Maybe she should have stuck with her natural color. via here [...]
A retrospective from another angle… I probably shouldn’t have tried to exercise my creativity… link and I probably shouldn’t have nominated myself for employee of the month… link I probably shouldn’t have been so obvious about it… In August 2012, Apple won $1.05bn from Samsung for infringement of design and software patents.

This is Alfred J. Sirleaf, the founder and sole editor of a ‘blackboard newspaper’ in Monrovia, Liberia’s capital city. Everyday, Alfred updates his newspaper, The Daily Talk (I can’t even paste a link), neatly writing the latest headlines using sticks of chalk in his “newsroom”, a small wooden shack attached to the back of his [...]

‘Pippa smiles!’, ‘Pippa Jogs!’, ‘Pippa bikes!’, ‘Pippa Farts!’ (and other stories) IT’S NEWS TIME PEOPLE! In the latest misadventures of Miss Middleton, Pippa was spotted ‘galavanting’ around Paris this weekend with what can only be described as a harem of French aristocrats at her beck and call. In what looks like a propaganda dream for French socialist [...]
I really enjoy the Economist. It’s not one of those economic/ political reads that leaves me feeling like I wasn’t properly educated enough. In a very clear and to-the-point article out today, the publication informs its readers that France is pretty much a broke, hot mess, in total denial of the economic sh*t storm its [...]
So this is what your uniform looks like if you are a female beach volleyball player on the Olympic team. Bikinis (with bottoms that do not exceed six centimetres in width at the hip) have always been a requirement. Yeah, as in the athletes have no choice. So it’s kind of like that time when women didn’t [...]
The Prime Minister of Britain and the President of the United States chomped down some dogs while attending the NCAA basketball Tournament together in Ohio. Other than having no idea why men were bouncing a ball around a court, Mr. Cameron also seemed to be having some difficulty eating his hotdog. Or ‘sausage roll’ as [...]
