More History Making: First African American To Lead Republican Party

CNN reports "The Republican National Committee has elected former Maryland Lt. Gov. Michael Steele the first black Republican National Committee chairman. Steele was the most moderate candidate in the field and was considered an outsider because he's not an RNC member. He beat back four challengers, including incumbent Mike Duncan, who was forced to withdraw from the field midway through the balloting in the face of a lack of support.

MGMT "Electric feel"

MGMT, which is short for "Management", got that 70's disco electric funk sound. I've recently came across a few people just now catching wind of the electric feel, so I had to post the video. Its got that Hippies in the forrest vibe, which a Young Hippie likes myself can definitely feel.






SHOCK ME LIKE A ELECTRIC EEL!!!!! Beach Boy outtie!

"Artsey Art Head"

Well Julian Beever is a English chalk artist whose anamorphic trompe l'oeil pavement drawings are made to look three-dimensional when viewed from a certain angle. So, essentially, he's like Burt from Mary Poppins, except, unlike Dick Van Dyke's character, Beever's renderings only appear tactile. You can't jump into them and tap dance with penguins.

Whatevz. We'll follow Beever anywhere, especially because, as a performance artist, he plants himself in pictures of his own work, sometimes half-clothed.

"Whip so chunky, call it a sumo"

Austrian artist Erwin Wurm is a chubby chaser. Well, not so much a chubby chaser as a chubby maker.

And when we say "chubby," we mean "fleshy, volumnous sculptures."

These are from Wurm's 'Fat Cars' series:








And if you got to drive one of these babies, you'd have no excuse but to keep it parked safely in front of Wurm's 'Fat House':
