Whether you are a massive film fan or not, there is no escaping the fact that 3D films are big business at the moment. As the amount of studios look in to cash in by jumping onto the 3D bandwagon the debate amongst cinema-goers, film professionals and critics is becoming increasingly heated. There doesn't seem to be a consensus over the merits of 3D film. Some feel like it is a passing fad, whereas others insist that it is the future of cinema. So what do you think - has 3D already outstayed it's welcome or has it already settled in to be a mainstay of our film going experience?
Charlie Hebdo is back with a vengeance, giving the finger (or, to be more accurate, "un bras d'honneur") to all the terrorists out there (though in this issue, it's mainly aimed at the Islamist ones)...

Music and humor can intersect in one of three ways. The first way is when serious artists get clever. This would be The Who's "Squeeze Box," The Ramones "I Want to be Sedated," or Aerosmith's "Dude Looks Like a Lady."

Individuals that possess eidetic memory, or photographic memory, are able to recall with precision a large amount of information, images or sounds.

Art and music has always been an integral part of any society; no matter how basic and primitive or complex and advanced. Art is the cultural output of a society that reflects its attitudes, values, morals, and what it considers ideal and beautiful. Art truly is one of the great measures of a civilization and is a window into what a particular culture thought and valued.
Before it became a highly popular fashion accessory, the head scarf was already an important and vital piece of clothing that women who abided by a certain code of dress due to their religious affiliation had to put on lest they be reprimanded. There are still countless women who must don this long piece of cloth to cover their hair, with some even being required to cover their entire head with only their faces or just their eyes being exposed, while there are many women who consider it nothing more than an optional accessory that they can choose to wear.
