(Jo) Raquel (Tejeda) Welch dances to ‘Raquel’ by Neon Neon (video)
The story so far: Euro art-rockers Neon Neon recorded a song called Raquel in 2007 and a year later someone (shuffle76?) made the song into a music video by mashing up old scenes of (Jo) Raquel (Tejeda) Welch dancing and acting and stuff. Good idea, shuffle76, as if that’s your real name.

Video: Best (and longest) death scene ever in the history of cinema?
Now that poor Turkey, the sick man of Europe, is under the control of an egomaniacal historically ignorant Ottoman wannabe, it’s comforting to look back on the glory days of Turkish cinema with 1974’s Karate Girl.

Ex-teacher Rep. Mark Takano gives Sen. Marco Rubio an ‘F’
Net Neutrality Showdown!
MARCO RUBIO vs MARK TANAKA
IN THIS CORNER:
Mark Allan Takano (born December 10, 1960) is the United States Representative for California’s 41st Congressional District. A Democrat, former Inland Empire school teacher Takano is the first openly gay person of color in Congress.
IN THAT CORNER:
Marco Antonio Rubio (born May 28, 1971) is the junior United States Senator from Florida, serving since January 2011. A member of the Republican Party, he previously served as Speaker of the Florida House of Representatives (2007–2009).
THE MATCH (as posted on Facebook)
- Dear Mario:
I only break out the red pen on special occasions. So when I saw Marco Rubio’s recent op-ed on Net Neutrality, you know I couldn’t resist. It is intentionally misleading, poorly researched, and littered with errors.
Marco, please don’t draft essays on your return flight from Iowa. See me in my office and I’ll walk you through Net Neutrality.
Mark

This is your anti-immigrant GOP House of Representatives on GIFs
From the party who brought you
REPUBLICAN LETTER TO IRAN!
No shit. We grabbed all the text and images from your House Judiciary Committee’s website as soon as we saw it so we could present it to you in all its animated GIF-y wonder. We made it better, though, since the GOP geeks apparently don’t know how to resize GIFS, even though they’re all GIFs of white people! And they do not — I REPEAT DO NOT — like President Obama’s executive actions on immigration.
This webpage is called “AT THE FLICK OF A SWITCH”
¡Mira!

1. Right now, one single person – the President of the United States – can turn off the enforcement of our immigration laws unilaterally. For real.

Diego Rivera’s Wife Frida Kahlo ‘Gleefully Dabbles’ in Works of Art
In the early 1930s, Frida Kahlo joined her (at the time) much more famous husband Diego Rivera in Detroit, Michigan, where he was prepping murals. The Detroit News caught up with the couple and the resulting feature story is in a new exhibit at the Detroit Institute of Art.
“Senora Diego Rivera,” as she’s called in the article, didn’t let Diego hog the limelight, even though she was dressed in a “foolish little ruffled apron.”
“Of course he [Diego] does pretty well for a little boy,” she told reporter Florence Davies, “but it is I who am the big artist.”
