Someone really needs to make a science fiction movie that features these Tito-era sculptures from Yugoslavia.

“Any group of people who’ve watched a TV sporting event (and I apologize in advance for the following comparison, considering the serious nature of what they were watching), will recognize Obama’s position as that of the person in the room who in addition to being a fan, has just made a call to his bookie.”

Sebastian Junger (left) with Tim Hetherington (right) at Outpost Restrepo in Afghanistan. Restrepo, the documentary Hetherington and Junger made about a year in the lives of the soldiers at the outpost, was nominated for an Oscar last year. Hetherington was killed today while working as a war photographer in Libya. This was his last tweet: “In besieged Libyan city of Misrata. Indiscriminate shelling by Qaddafi forces. No sign of NATO.” You can see some of his photos here. The very wise James Fallows has some sage advice on how best to honor a great journalist. Requiescat in pace.
