15 Obscure Christmas Songs That You Need To Hear
You will not hear any of these delightful tunes at a mall this holiday season.
August Darnell, "Christmas On Riverside Drive"
August Darnell, best known as Kid Creole of Kid Creole and the Coconuts and a core member of Dr. Buzzard's Original Savannah Band, recorded this glorious disco ode to uptown Manhattan during the holiday season for Ze Records' A Christmas Record in 1981. That album, a one-of-a-kind classic of post-punk/disco holiday cheer, also features the wonderful "Christmas Wrapping" by the Waitresses, which went on to become a very well-known Christmas staple. [MP]
Debbie & The Darnels, "Santa, Teach Me To Dance"

Miley Cyrus Rolls Around In Sheets, Half-Nude For New Video
The preview for her song “Adore You” is filmed entirely in a bedroom fort. Or, so it seems.
It starts off with her lying in what appears to be an incubator or those liquid tubes from The Island.
Then, once she's grown into a human, it transitions into her mouthing something like, "Ew, chapstick." So we're like, "Do you want chapstick?"
Then she says what looks like "I hate everyone" and we're like, "OK, not necessary. We're just trying to help."
Then she feels her ribs slowly and we're like, "Miley, if you're cold, use the sheet how it's intended."

15 Old-Timey Candies You Never Knew Existed
In the 1920s, there was a candy bar called Chicken Dinner. Not making this up.
Whiz
Popular in the '30s and '40s, this candy bar included a mix of peanuts, marshmallow, and fudge covered in milk chocolate.
Chicken Dinner Candy Bar
Pearson's Candy Company put out these oddly-named bars during the Great Depression, the name being a reference to Hoover's presidential campaign slogan, "A chicken in every pot." The bar did not contain chicken — it was a nut roll covered in chocolate.
Pecan Pete
A choice for candy lovers of the 1940s, Pecan Pete bars included clusters of pecans stuffed in with nougat and covered in bittersweet dark chocolate.
Nickel Naks
These 1940s candies varied in flavor from box to box — think lemon drops, jelly beans, candy corn, or candy cherries.

15 Reasons 2013 Was A New Golden Age For Punk
If 1991 was the year punk broke, 2013 was the year it was completely demolished.
NASA Space Universe, EGM/ICE
Hardcore can be kitschy, outlandish even, but it's often humorless. NASA Space Universe (yes, they are aware of the redundancy of "space" in their band name, thank you very much) are brilliant comedians, but their band is very much not a joke. The lyrics from frontman Kevin Rhea are fictional science terms, sci-fi poetry even, screamed with the conviction of even the most activist bands. Oh, and Nardwuar, the internet's most eccentric music personality (and talented researcher) is a avid fan. Take his word for it.

The 13 Greatest Scientists (By Beard)
From throughout the ages.
Alexander Graham-Bell
Call me Maybe?
Nationality: Canadian/Scottish
Field: Engineering
Contributions: The telephone, but also tons of inventions from later in his life
Beard: The classic big bushy white beard like a Father Christmas with inventions instead of presents.
Gilbert Lewis
I'll be your electron-pair acceptor, baby
Nationality: U.S.A
Field: Chemistry
Contributions: Discovered covalent bonds and electron pairs, also contributed to the fields of thermodynamics and photochemistry.
Beard: Neat and stylish, but a good length. Slightly too respectable though, which may explain why despite getting 35 nominations, he never won a Nobel Prize
Norbert Rillieux
Sweet beard
Nationality: Creole American
Field: Engineering
Contributions: Developed a modern way of refining sugar that made it cheaper, easier and safer. Also developed a method for combating the Yellow Fever outbreak in New Orleans that was rejected by the state, only to be copied by white engineers a few years later.
Beard: Wiry goatee with bushy moustache combo. Most excellent.
Leonardo Da Vinci
"Great man, great beard"
Nationality: Italian
Field: Everything
Contributions: Leonardo invented so much stuff most of it was re-invented by other people because no one ever really got round to going through all his notebooks to work out what he wrote down. His contributions to the field of anatomy were extensive and legendary, and he also was a vegetarian who would buy and then free caged birds, which is awesome.
Beard Da Vinci has been so influential in everything he did I'm pretty sure most subsequent scientists have a beard is because of Leo.
