Since most of the wired world heard last night’s big news long before the President announced it – or the news networks reported it – it seems only fitting to recap in the words of those who encapsulated events as they unfolded in 140 characters or less….

Let us answer life’s questions – because great advice is even better when it comes from SuicideGirls.

Q: I’m 18 and a female. I’m lesbian and I’m extremely shy. In the town I live there aren’t many lesbians or anything like that. My problem is, I don’t know how to find out whether a girl I like is lesbian, or even how to find lesbians anywhere around here. How can you tell (without making a complete ass out of myself) whether a girl is lesbian? And if I finally work up the courage to go to a lesbian bar in a different city, how do you approach other lesbians?

Even for adults, it might be hard to figure out if a loved one is turning into some kind of crazed monster, or just going through something Jeanie Linders might write a musical about. The issue would be compounded were a parent to get bitten by the zombie bug before their offspring were old enough to understand the facts of life and the undead.

Fortunately Matt Mogk, the Founder & Head Researcher of the Zombie Research Society, has written an invaluable educational guide to help prepare children for the coming plague. That’s Not Your Mommy Anymore is a beautifully illustrated and fun to read book which helps kids spot the early warning signs of zombism.

The first (and best) cello-based rock band, Rasputina, formed over twenty years ago in Brooklyn, New York. Based around founding auteur Melora Creager, the band has seen many members come and go over the years and had more drummers than Spın̈al Tap, but has maintained a consistent vision throughout. Their songs focus on Creager’s obsessions: historical oddities, fantastical theories, and the strength of women. The whole is tied together with her handmade aesthetic into an artistically unified production: from their album art to their stage performances (called ‘recitals’) to their music. Rasputina’s most recent album is Great American Gingerbread, a collection of demos and other rarities. Melora and I spoke recently about her songwriting method, her proudest moment, and how she keeps Rasputina fresh after two decades in the music business.
