HANNE'S ART AND CULTURE BLOG

These will certainly not beat the Mondrian Nike's, as these shoes are predictable. Still, as the person selling pages of art gallery ads from Artforum for $ 10 each on Ebay is saying " AN AFFORDABLE WAY TO OBTAIN AN ORIGINAL, GALLERY APPROVED AUTHENTIC PRINT OF YOUR FAVORITE ARTISTS WORK". If you're into it, why not?

Say, I'd like to eat a little something. You got something? What you got? Any kind of food is good. I just want something to eat. You must got something. I ain't desperate or nothing like that. Don't think I'm begging. I'm just asking here. No pressure. I just want to eat something. Wondering if you had something maybe. No big deal.

You gotta have something. Please. What is that? A thing to eat? I think it might be.

Oh my goodness! Go see this show, it's awesome.

I really have no comments for this one other than "no-no!".

Problem solving is obviously not Toby's strongest side.

It's Xavier Samuel, who will make his debut in Eclipse, the third installment of the Twilight series! He will play Riley, a newly-turned vampire who has been recruited into the mission of killing Bella.

This must be the best art work ever created. Simon should definitely venture into the music business, no question about it. If you don't know who Simon is, he's a very good auctioneer at the auction house Phillips de Pury & Company. Example below.

This just in from my gallery Art Since the Summer of '69: Currently on sale in the gallery and on our website is Kanye West's literary debut "Thank You and You're Welcome".

Kanye West teams up with co- author J. Sakiya Sandifer to make his literary debut with Thank You And You're Welcome!, an entertaining volume of "Kanye-isms" - the creative, humorous and insightful philosophies and anecdotes used in creating his path to success. It captures the same wit, playful irony, and piercing insight found abundant in his lyrics. In Thank You And You're Welcome! Kanye delivers his personal message uncensored, without any five-second delay or media distortion.

"My book is a guide to creating then celebrating your moment!" says Kanye. Go here if you're interested.

It's Mickey Rourke, out in London, wearing his 'Loki forever' shoes; slipper style shoes with 'Loki' embroidery on them. As some of you know, Loki was Rourke's precious chihuahua, which he brought with him everywhere, even to the red carpet. For more Loki, visit Miss Loki Rourke's fan page. It's something very special which you really shouldn't miss. RIP Loki.

First Xavier Samuel, now Jennifer Love Hewitt. Apparently Yoko Ono + Jennifer came before Yoko Ono + Xavier, according to my source who sent me this picture. Jennifer and Xavier must be Yoko Ono's number 1 and 2 fans!

Christy Turlington is on the current front cover of Vogue US, and inside the magazine you can see pictures from her career, dating back to the 1980s. Although they failed to publish this picture. Why? She has so much flair here!

Bonus material: If you want more Christy Turlington inspiration, go to my fashion blog.

This is actually a joint Art of the Day and a Cuteness of the Day post. It's Ludwig Von Truffle of Art Since the Summer of '69, seated on a Jack Pierson art work!

The Snow White Oscar, presented to Walt Disney by Shirley Temple in 1939 for the creation of the world’s first animated feature, and consisting of one full-sized Academy Award and, naturally, seven miniature ones.

This sweater would typically be in the 'Cuteness of the Day' category on this blog. But the fact that an adult is inside of it instead of a little person convinced me of the no-no. Don't know who Wil is? He is Wesley Crusher on the TV show Star Trek: The Next Generation! He was also in the movies Stand By Me and Toy Soldiers. In addition, Wil is a world known nerd who has his own blog (obviously). He published a book called Just A Geek in 2004. He also loves poker, and played in the world series of poker in 2005. Wil's a real multitasker!

CBS NEWS: SYDNEY — Nine years after vanishing from outside her Australian family's home, Muffy the dog was found alive and well this month in another backyard – 1,200 miles away – officials said Thursday.

Inspectors with the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals were investigating a possible animal cruelty case at a home in the southern city of Melbourne two weeks ago when they found the fluffy white mutt sleeping outside on a scrap of cardboard, Victoria state RSPCA spokesman Tim Pilgrim said.

A microchip in Muffy's neck identified her owners, and, after a few days of searching for a current phone number, officials tracked down Natalie Lampard, who hadn't seen Muffy since the pooch disappeared from her backyard in the eastern city of Brisbane nine years ago.

"When the RSPCA described her, I told them her name; I knew immediately it was our Muffy," Lampard said. "It was totally out of the blue – after nine years, I thought she was long gone."

The owners of the Melbourne house where Muffy was discovered said they found the dog about a year ago wandering along a street, Pilgrim said. But where had Muffy spent the previous eight years? And how did she get all the way to Melbourne – about 1,200 miles (2,000 kilometers) from Brisbane?

"Nobody knows," Pilgrim said. "The mystery continues for old Muffy."

Muffy was suffering from a severe allergic reaction to fleas and has been under treatment since the RSPCA removed her from the Melbourne home, Pilgrim said. The dog, which the Lampards originally adopted from an RSPCA shelter near Brisbane, is recovering well and should be in good enough shape to fly back home on Tuesday, Pilgrim said.

Lampard got Muffy as a gift for her now 17-year-old daughter Chloe, and the two had been inseparable, Lampard said.

"After the RSPCA called, I rang my daughter and asked her if she was sitting down, then told her they'd found Muffy," Lampard said. "She's over the moon and there'll be a few tears shed when they see each other again. But just how she got down to Melbourne I guess is a mystery that will never be answered."
