Christian Cross Has No Place On Los Angeles County Seal, Judge Says
by Tammy on April 7, 2016This is ridiculous. California was initially developed by the Spanish leaving it with a rich cultural and architectural history reflective of its founding, including beautiful missions throughout the state. But, of course, the left remains fixated on not just wiping away God from the public square but erasing our history, as well. I hope the county appeals. Via Los Angeles Times. In a long-awaited ruling, a federal judge has sided with plaintiffs who argued it was unconstitutional for Los Angeles County supervisors to place a Christian cross on the county seal. A divided Board of Supervisors voted in 2014 to reinstate the cross on top of a depiction of the San Gabriel Mission, which appears on the seal among other...

‘Creative’ Piece of Art Causes Bomb Scare At JFK
by Shifra on March 20, 2016Well, you know what they say: One man’s trash is another man’s art. Or something. Via NY Post: An abstract artist bombed his security screening at Kennedy Airport when he tried to board his flight with a sculpture that looked like a makeshift explosive. The alarming art project included a tin can filled with what looked like plaster and attached to a tangle of wires that are wrapped around three bundles of green plastic wrap with zip ties, according to a photo of the “abstract art.” …The TSA hauled the artist aside when they discovered he was carrying the suspicious sculpture in his checked luggage on Wednesday…. But the traveler defended the useless contraption. “It’s art,” he said… ****************************************************

Feds Spend $97,500 To Create Wordless Shakespeare Plays
by Shifra on July 22, 2015Because, when studying Shakespeare’s Macbeth, we don’t need no stinkin’ words! Via Free Beacon: The federal government has invested nearly $100,000 to bring Shakespeare to the stage—only without the legendary playwright’s words. The National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and its state agency the Virginia Commission for the Arts has funded numerous shows from the Crystal City-based Synetic Theater…. The Wall Street Journal bemoaned the dumbing down of Shakespeare, noting Shakespeare’s plays “without puns is like French cooking without butter,” in a recent review of Synetic’s adaptations. “The latest Shakespeare fashion, at least in the Washington area, is to invite people to a feast of language and serve nothing but grunts, grimaces and grins—with a few gyrations thrown in for...

Obama ‘Hope’ Poster Artist: Americans Are Ignorant, Lazy and Uneducated
by Shifra on May 29, 2015Yes, the jerk artist who pleaded guilty last year for destroying evidence and falsifying documents to hide that he ‘stole’ an AP photo of Obama for his poster, wants us to know that Obama is a “quality human being.” He is also a big supporter of Occupy Wall Street. And he also wants us to know that Americans are ignorant, lazy and uneducated. Hey, right back at ya, dude! Via Daily Caller: Shepard Fairey, the artist who designed Barack Obama’s “Hope” poster that symbolized his 2008 campaign, said that he thinks Americans are largely “ignorant, lazy, uneducated and complacent.” In an interview with Esquire, the 45-year-old said Obama hadn’t even come close to living up to his expectations, but he...

by Shifra on March 31, 2014Yes, our tax $$$. Hard at work.

Ancient Mummy Statue Turns Its Back to the Crowds
by Patricia on June 24, 2013An ancient statue in the Manchester Museum spins away from the crowd during the day and is still at night. Interesting that once the 4,000-year-old statue of Neb-Senu has rotated and faces away from the crowd entering the museum it seems to have completed its rotation. From FoxNews: An ancient statue created as an offering to the Egyptian god of death has stumped the Manchester Museum in England after a time-lapse video taken over a week-long period shows the artifact slowly spinning. The strange occurrence was first noticed by the statue’s current caretaker, Campbell Price, who reset the relic back to its original direction after finding it askew, only to discover the statue returned to the wrong direction again the...
