Alien Skull Discovered?
SHOCKING: Is this an alien skull? Mystery of giant-headed mummy found in Peru.
A mummified elongated skull found in Peru could finally prove the existence of aliens.
The strangely shaped head - almost as big as its 50cm (20in) body - has baffled anthropologists.
It was one of two sets of remains found in the city of Andahuaylillas in the southern province of Quispicanchi.
The skeletal sets were discovered by Renato Davila Riquelme, who works for the Privado Ritos Andinos museum in Cusco in south-eastern Peru.
He said that that the eye cavities are far larger than normally seen in humans.
There is a soft spot in the skull - called an open fontanelle - which is a characteristic of children in their first year of life, yet the skull also has two large molars, only found in much older humans.

Obama Obeying Occupy Movement?
“Many Occupy protesters have been openly contemptuous of Democrats, including President Barack Obama, arguing that both political parties are equally beholden to corporate interests and responsible for enacting policies that have hurt the middle class,” the Associated Press writes.
The trend has prompted political analysts to wonder whether Obama can win reelection without the fierce support he engendered in 2008.
But Fairey, a longtime supporter of the Occupy protests and Obama, seems to be warning his fans not to give up on Obama just yet: “Change is not about one election, one rally, one leader, it is about a constant dedication to progress and a constant push in the right direction. Let’s be the people doing the right thing as outsiders and simultaneously push the insiders to do the right thing for the people.”

In 2008, Shepard Fairey created a political poster that became iconic, and undoubtedly help get Barack Obama elected president. Now, Fairey has tweaked the “Hope” image — “the bright colors, bold lettering, geometric simplicity, heroic poses,” as The Post’s William Booth wrote ofObama’s poster 2008 — for today’s milieu. The new poster replaces Obama (or perhaps simply covers his face?) with the Occupy Wall Street and Anonymous image of the Guy Fawkes mask.
It is, Fairey writes, both a statement of support for the Occupy movement — and a sign of support for Obama.
“As flawed as the system is, I see Obama as a potential ally of the Occupy movement if the energy of the movement is perceived as constructive, not destructive. I still see Obama as the closest thing to “a man on the inside” that we have presently,” he posted to hisWeb site Friday. The Occupy movement and the Democratic Party have had an uneasy relationship since the start of the two-month-old protests.

November 17th (THU) at "THE DUANE"
I was lucky to witness this Kimono Runway Show that was introduced by a Noted Kimono Manufacturer,HOSOO. The event was organized by Arte Group Inc.- The Japanese New Yorker's group who are trying to preserve the Ancient beauty of the Kimono for as long as they can, because this culture is slowly dying off. Kimono lovers in NYC gathered and discussed the featured products brought from KYOTO, the kimono capital in Japan and we recognized each other's love of Kimono.
As the population of Japan sees itself faced with an aging crisis, many are starting to realize that old traditions are also in danger of being lost. Since I live in New York, I am fortunate to see my culture from the outside. I majored in Kimono Embroidery in college, so I am eager to be a part of the movement to SAVE KIMONO.
I was pleased to see on the internet that one blogger has done something about it, by blogging in English about kimono culture- how to find kimono in tokyo The event was hosted at the Duane, a LOFT MANSION in the heart of Tribeca currently being listed at $45M by Elliman.

Steve Jobs Dissed Bill Gates
Fuck
Bill Gates?
Has anyone read the Steve Jobs book bio? Lord, he has no love for Bill Gates...well...he did. But he thought Billy had no style or any imagination. Ouch. He even said he proudly steals other peoples ideas. What's coolest of all, Bill Gates is all good about it. He didn't mind Steve's harsh words. Why would he mind? He is stupid RICH.

Allison Schulnik Interview on Cats
Do you remember the first time you drew or painted a cat?
When I was 13 or so and saw what Picasso had painted when he was my age, I decided I really needed to get good fast. So I started by drawing seven things over and over again: crumpled up hand towels, flowers, myself, my parents, the beach, the alleys around town, and cats. I have pages and pages in notebooks, hundreds of cat drawings. In my later teenage years I moved to mushrooms, dancers, medieval castles, psychedelic abstractions, and sexy superhero cat-women. So I always was working with cats, I guess. And I never stopped drawing and painting cats from life.
What drew you so strongly to your feline subjects?
I liked that they constantly moved, so it was always a game to get this quick little gesture in the right way. Plus they are so elegant and mysterious, and gracious like dancers. There is always so much twist and bend in their positions. It's like they were made to be placed in an image. My house was a bit of a cat crack house. They moved in and out, usually based on how much bacon and cheese they got, which was a lot. So there were always new ones to draw. They squatted where they pleased, and never really got kicked out. Sometimes their family members would come looking for them there, only to be turned away by the head of the house. They definitely own the house to this day.
The 21st-century belongs to the cat. They already own the Internet and its lolz, an entire subdivision of street art is devoted to their graphic representation (with or without lasers shooting out of their eyes), and now felines seem to be colonizing contemporary art galleries as well. Recently a flurry of New York shows have celebrated the cat, including Urs Fischer andCassandra MacLeod’s familial turn at Gavin Brown’s Enterprise and Kristen Schiele at Freight + Volume.
And then there is Allison Schulnik’s oil-thick exhibition at ZieherSmith Gallery, which features multiple paintings of felines (and one sculpture.) We spoke with the Los Angeles-based artist about her artistic cat fancy.

Sperm Whale Explodes
A 56-foot, 60-ton sperm whale died on a beach in Taiwan in January, 2004. Researchers wanted the carcass to perform an autopsy and for research, so they loaded the whale onto a tractor-trailer and set out through the city of Tainan, heading for the Shi-Tsau Natural Preserve. It took 13 hours, three cranes and 50 workers to get the whale loaded on the truck.
Unfortunately, on the way through the city, gasses built up to a critical level in the whale and it exploded, spewing whale guts in the street, on the cars and over pedestrians. According to witnesses, the smell was pretty bad. Residents and shop owners put on masks and tried to clean up the mess. Eventually the whale continued its journey to the research center.

Study: Staring at breasts increases heart health
Guys, listen up. A study says it is actually healthy to stare at a woman's breasts.
Five-hundred men participated in the German study. Half were told to refrain from looking at breasts for five years, the other half were told to ogle them daily.
The study found the men who stared at breasts more often showed lower rates of heart problems, a lower resting heart rate and lower blood pressure.
The authors of the study recommend that men stare at breasts for 10 minutes a day.
Study: Stare at Boobies, Live longer.
Hoax or not a hoax… Do you agree with this ‘study’?

The History of Horror Movies
The genre began in ancient Egypt, when a bunch of people said to themselves "Hey, those mummified corpses we keep around everywhere are actually kind of creepy," and performed a play about them coming to life and killing ancient Egyptian teenagers.
Unfortunately, the performers were then put to death for blasphemy, and the horror movie genre went underground until the beginning of the 20th Century. Since then it has diversified into many different subgenres. The popularity of these subgenres often reflects contemporary issues in society (see The Real World Fears Behind 8 Popular Movie Monsters.)

Mini Inside Out Sculpture's by Jason Freeny
JASON FREENY
Jason created his first fictional anatomy in 2000 with his depiction of the mythological "Incubus".
Armed with a youthful, overactive imagination, Jason creates smart, intricate illustrations that tickle the deviant intellect through a mix of hard graphics, pop iconography and wit.
During the day, Jason works in Manhattan as a mild mannered interface designer. At night, after the kids go to sleep, he can be found hunched over his computer developing works of candy colored madness.
Jason aspires to one day drop the daytime gig...
INSIDE OUT, OUTSIDE IN
Jason Freeny is a skillful beast. These mini sculptures are of the famous cartoons and toys we grew up with. Freeny twists the outcome of his subjects by making them look like old school 8th grade science classroom. Watching him work is like watching an actual hospital surgery or important experiment. Dope!
