Pop Candy: Unwrapping pop culture's hip and hidden treasures
Even if you don't think you've heard of Yukon Blonde , the band may be hiding somewhere in your subconscious ... especially if you watch How I Met Your Mother . Tiger Talk is just the sort of record I've been searching for now that the weather is warming and spring is around the corner. You won't find any self-pitying, peer-in-your-beer tunes here; rather, the tight, upbeat tracks are cheerful, singable and a breath of fresh air. The record opens with My Girl , one of several tunes that seems to be inspired by early '80s New Wave bands. Within seconds of hearing it, I was out of my seat and dancing -- and I don't mean a hipster-ish dancing, I'm talking about " Molly Ringwald in The Breakfast Club " sort of moves.

Poster artwork has been around for ages communicating products, events, social issues, propaganda and more. From the beginning until now they have been one of the strongest forms of communication. There's no doubt they will continue to be far into the future. Posterwhore.com was created to showcase the artists and designers, from around the world, who spend countless hours creating the stunning artwork that makes up this form of communication. It is my hope that this website will give these artists an additional platform through which to inspire others artists and put their individual work in front of art buyers, creative directors, collectors and the like. The ultimate goal; be a catalyst for greater sales of their artwork and talent.

The Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles has become one of my favorite annual events, and not just because it’s next door to Amoeba. Once more, the tenth edition has a killer lineup of films that dispel the popular image of Bollywood as reflected in The Simpsons ( although I love that, too ). I was fortunate enough to acquire two screeners in advance of next week’s fest, and both of them kicked my ass. Delhi Belly (2011) is an Amir Khan-produced flick about three slackers who get entangled in the city’s underworld. The notion of regular dudes getting their hands on an unmarked bag, handling it like shit, and getting into serious trouble is nothing new, but director Abhinay Deo does it very well, skillfully balancing humor and tension, style and action, while never forgetting to make the protagonists likable and their relationship bordering on real.

For the past 175 years, the The National Library of Medicine in Bethesda has been building the world’s largest collection of biomedical images, artifacts, and ephemera. With more than 17 million items spanning ten centuries, it’s a treasure trove of rare, obscure, extravagant wonders, most of which remain unseen by the public and unknown even to historians, librarians, and curators. Until now. Hidden Treasure , following on the heels of The Art of Medicine , is an exquisite large-format volume that culls some of the most fascinating, surprising, beautiful, gruesome, and idiosyncratic objects from the Library’s collection in 450 full-color illustrations. From rare “magic lantern slides” doctors used to entertain and cure inmates at the St.
