Coming out this Fall is Monopoly Revolution. It's...ROUND! And with some new features.
New features include updated "here and now" pricing, an electronic game pod that keeps track of players' money — via electronic banking cards — and also provides sound effects and song clips that correspond with events in the game.
Artist Michel de Broin had some fun in creating this bike path extension. The artist explains:
On the perimeter of the bicycle path running alongside the Lachine Canal in Montréal, I drew a an extension of the lane. The design of this path is a rupture in the rationality of urban landscaping.
Great behind-the-scene photos of Shepard Fairey preparing for Deitch Gallery's closing show.
Apparently in the 1950s, aersol cans were all the rage and viewed as a revolutionary means of food delivery.nUnfortunately, aerosol mash potatoes never made it past review. What a shame.

Oklahoma photographer Hugh Holland snapped some neat photos that captured the Seventies skateboarding culture.
This reminds of this photo below that I took at the Dia this summer.
I've been thinking of getting a new alarm clock. This. Should. Be. Perfect.

John Mayer's open letter to D'Angelo:
DEAR D'ANGELO, My name is John Mayer. You might know me from that "Your Body Is a Wonderland" song, or perhaps our mutual friend, Roots drummer? uestlove, mentioned me to you. I'm writing to ask you to put out a follow-up to one of the few records to change my life forever, Voodoo.When Voodoo came out in 2000, I stood in line at Tower Records in Atlanta at midnight to get it. Turns out, it set the gold standard for modern "neo" soul music. It's 2004, and I'm no less excited by it today than I was when I played it full blast in my mother's Plymouth Voyager on the way to my bullshit job. I drive a nicer car now, but I still listen to Voodoo and wonder what my albums would sound like if I took a bite off your style and what R&B would be like if you came back.
I will sign this petition.

A neat bit of trivia about the actor that plays Michael Scott's boss, CFO David Wallace in NBC's "The Office": A Stanford alum, Andy Buckley actually has a full time job in real life as a wealth management advisor at "a leading investment bank and wealth-management advisory firm in Los Angeles" and his David Wallace role is actually a side gig.
In 2001, Buckley gave up acting and switched careers. He filmed what he thought was one of his final roles on an episode of “NYPD Blue” and showed up for training at a leading investment bank two weeks later. Still employed at the firm more than eight years later, Buckley said he is unable to disclose its name due to company policy. (His company is fine with his side gig, he said, but he has to run everything, including this interview and scripts, by compliance.)His surprising turn as a minor character on “The Office” happened almost by accident, Buckley said. While at a local farmer’s market, he ran into the show’s casting director, who had tried to find roles for him in the past. She asked for his card, and nine months later, invited him to audition for the part of Dunder Mifflin’s CFO.
Unemployed actors and bankers hate this guy.
