A stash of Picasso paintings has been discovered! Hopefully this is not another ruse by a forger pretending to be a Jesuit priest. (Art intrigue is exciting!)

Another cache of great art is on Flickr now, thanks to the son-in-law of Nick DeWolf. DeWolf took thousands of photos from the 1950s onward, and many are now online.

Tom Waits is going to publish a book of poetry. It'll be out too late for the hipsters on your Christmas list, however.

And finally, and completely unrelated, please to enjoy this history of the Soviet Union, as told through song and Tetris. (Once you get past the first minute or so, it really gets going.)
