We don't usually think of sports bets in the same sentence as art, but here's one based on the game tonight (Monday) between the 49ers and the Steelers. Andrew Farago, curator of San Francisco's Cartoon Art Museum, has issued a challenge to Joe Wos, director of Pittsburgh's ToonSeum: The losing team's fan must show up at the winner's museum to lead a workshop on cartooning -- clad in the opposing team's jersey.
Reporting on the Occupy movement is a frustrating task, one that has been especially difficult for Susie Cagle. As a graphic journalist, Cagle covers Occupy Oakland with her signature blend of writing and cartooning. While her cartoons make her reporting stand out, they've also led to questions about her credibility. Since the movement began, she's been arrested, teargassed, and struggled to obtain a press pass from the Oakland Police Department. Despite that, she has continued to draw and write about Occupy. Cagle chatted with us about the future of the movement, the definition of journalism, and her work.

The surprising CBS hit (surprising because it sucks) 2 Broke Girls has a lot of sex jokes. The show makes fun of Brooklyn hipsters and rich people and is ultimately about cupcakes. It was filmed in 1982.

Oleg (greasy cook fluent in sexytime jokes; formerly of Mel's Diner.)
Han (Korean restaurant owner; facilitates show's racism.)
