The 1955 Ghia Gilda Streamline X Coupe
The 1955 Ghia Gilda Streamline X Coupe is a serious piece of retro futurism. This conceptual jet-powered Chrysler was given sleek lines by Italy's iconic Ghia studio, then named for Rita Hayworth's character in the 1946 film noir. Recently the subject of a total restoration, the Gilda continues to encapsulate post-war technological optimism.

Do Ho Suh's Art @ Lehmann Maupin Gallery
Via Behind The Approval Matrix
In Home Within Home, Do Ho Suh will present will present a series of works that reflect the artist’s ongoing exploration of themes surrounding cultural displacement and the co-existence of cultural identities, as well as the perception of our surroundings and how one constructs a memory of a space. Suh’s own feeling of displacement when he arrived in the U.S. in 1991 to study at RISD led him to measure spaces in order to establish relationships with his new surroundings. Years later, the artist developed the idea of taking these measurements and using them to replicate and transport spaces. Suh constructs these architectural spaces and the elements within them in various mediums including fabrics, resin, and Styrofoam. Among the works exhibited in this show will be Fallen Star 1/5, Home Within Home, and a series of fabric objects, all personally revealing works which invite viewers into his homes.

WASTE LAND Documentary
Filmed over nearly three years, WASTE LAND follows renowned artist Vik Muniz as he journeys from his home base in Brooklyn to his native Brazil and the world's largest garbage dump, Jardim Gramacho, located on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro. There he photographs an eclectic band of “catadores”—self-designated pickers of recyclable materials. Muniz’s initial objective was to “paint” the catadores with garbage. However, his collaboration with these inspiring characters as they recreate photographic images of themselves out of garbage reveals both the dignity and despair of the catadores as they begin to re-imagine their lives. Director Lucy Walker (DEVIL’S PLAYGROUND, BLINDSIGHT and COUNTDOWN TO ZERO) and co-directors João Jardim and Karen Harley have great access to the entire process and, in the end, offer stirring evidence of the transformative power of art and the alchemy of the human spirit.
Excellent documentary be sure to watch!:)

KATIE A Novel by Mo Ibrahim
From The Writer Mo
Buy Katie A Novel by me for the Kindle, Nook, Sony Reader, and PDF for $2.99. Available soon for the iPad and within months in paperback.
Overview:
Roger, a Manhattan Playboy, gets into an altercation with Mr. Miller, a power-hungry businessman, who becomes so unsettled by their dispute that he attempts to destroy Roger’s life. Furious and desperately wanting to exact revenge, but feeling helpless against the powerful Mr. Miller, Roger reluctantly decides to do what he does best, which is to seduce Mr. Miller’s beautiful teenage daughter Katie.
Their initial dispute occurs on the subway, but escalates when they arrive at the same location – a ballet studio where Roger tutors Madison, a Manhattan prep school co-ed, to support his paltry day job income as a public high school teacher and where Mr. Miller is picking up Katie. Still fuming from the dispute, Mr. Miller embarks upon a plan to destroy Roger's life. Bent on retribution, Roger successfully seduces Katie until a series of events threaten to end their relationship.
Meanwhile, frustrated with his unruly students, Roger abandons his traditional economics curriculum to teach the art of seduction, presuming that his students will be more engaged and thereby restrained. However, Roger’s plan backfires when David, his “best” student, uses his newfound knowledge of seduction for unintended purposes, and is beaten into a coma by the siblings of his beguiled sex tape co-star. In the end, Katie must choose between ruining her relationship with her father and ending her liaison with Roger. Katie’s choice becomes much easier when she meets Josh, a young and handsome protégé of Rogers.
Katie is the first novel ever written with a PUA protagonist!

Magnolia Bakery
Locations: New York, Los Angeles, Dubai
Magnolia Bakery opened in the summer of 1996 on a quiet corner in the heart of New York City's Greenwich Village. It was envisioned as a cozy, old-fashioned shop where people could come for coffee and something sweet. With its vintage American desserts and decor, customers often remark that walking into the Bakery is like taking a step back in time.
In 2007, the original owner decided to pass her oven mitts to a new family she felt would maintain the integrity of what had become an iconic brand. And so, Steve Abrams, a veteran NYC restaurateur and consultant along with his wife and daughter, took over the Bakery. Since then they have slowly and thoughtfully expanded from one shop to six.
