Braden Blake , formerly of Super Deluxe : And the first track from the upcoming album from The Sun Sawed in 1/2: And because I can’t resist it, here is the same band, Sun Sawed in 1/2, performing an acoustic version of “Come Sail Away” by Styx — in a living room.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton plans to step down if President Obama is re-elected, but she noted that the State Department could get more done if people aren’t paying attention , according to Josh Rogin of Foreign Policy: Clinton warned her employees that the election season would “suck up a lot of the attention” from foreign policy issues. “But the good news is, you know, maybe we can even get more done if they’re not paying attention,” she said. “So just factor that in.” The comment came as Clinton was announcing changes to expect during the upcoming year, including the drawdown in Afghanistan and a pledge to allow employees upgraded browsers.

I’m assuming the thought process, such as it is, was “controversial sells magazines.” So in that light, I have a suggestion for Newsweek’s next cover, one that will really stir things up. Of course, we all know what this really translates to, so here’s the honest version of their latest cover: It doesn’t matter though. I have a direct line to the future, and this cover isn’t that far off: Alright, get to work people. Let’s see your photoshop skills.
