Huffington Post: Sew For Sandy: Crafts To Aid Pets Affected By The Hurricane (PHOTOS)

Posted: 07 Nov 2012 11:07 AM PST

It's been 9 days since Hurricane Sandy swept through the Northeast and some are still without power and heat and others have lost personal belongings... and in some cases their homes. We want to help. As an initiative to collect as many warm blankets, clothing and gear for those in need, we are asking our readers to "Sew For Sandy" and put their crafty skills to the test by making simple sewing (or no-sew!) projects to help keep those affected by the storm warm and toasty.

In today's installment we're focusing on helping out our fuzzy four-legged friends. Because of the storm, local shelters have become overcrowded and volunteers and supplies are badly needed. And for those victims who were able to keep their pets, they may be all they have left, so they need our support too. As the weather gets colder, we thought that cozy pet blankets and jackets would give these animals some much-needed warmth.

Below is a list of resourses for you to assist the animals that have been touched by Hurricane Sandy in any way you can. Or you can send completed #SewForSandy projects directly to us and we'll make sure it gets into the hands (or paws) of a pet in need at shelters including the Staten Island Hope Animal Rescue, Ocean County Animal Facility and the Humane Society Of Atlantic County. Click the links below to learn more, and look through the slideshow of free sewing and knitting patterns for pets we've rounded up to get you started.

Huffington Post: Charles Darwin, Georgia Write-In Candidate, Cast Into 'Pit Of Hell' By Paul Broun

Posted: 07 Nov 2012 11:08 AM PST

On an Election Day filled with upsets, the father of evolutionary theory proved incapable of riding the wave down in Georgia.

Fictional write-in candidate Charles Darwin was promoted around Georgia's 10th congressional district to provide a symbolic challenge to Rep. Paul Broun (R-Ga.), the outspoken congressman who created a stir earlier this year when video emerged of him calling evolution and the big bang theory "lies from the pit of hell."

Broun had been running unopposed until Jim Leebens-Mack, a plant biologist at the University of Georgia, started a Facebook page floating the idea of running Darwin to challenge the ultraconservative congressman over his anti-science views.

Huffington Post: Obama Art: Our Favorite Portraits Of The President (PHOTOS)

Posted: 07 Nov 2012 11:09 AM PST

Since the good ol' days of his first presidential campaign, Barack Obama has been a favored subject of painters, sculptors and portraitists from sea to shining sea. Established artists like Shepard Fairey and Rafael Lopez have given the presidential face a little love, while amateur artists across the Internet have created enough Obama art to last a life-term.

Now that the incumbent President has been elected to serve another four years, we can only imagine there's a great wave of new art just on the horizon. While we await more accurate and not-so-accurate presidential likenesses, we thought now was a good time to review the best of what the first term had to offer.

Scroll through the slideshow of our favorite portraits of Barack Obama below. Let us know what kind of presidential portraiture you want to see this term in the comments section.
