The Daily Helping is glad that it’s Friday. It’s a Friday before a three-day weekend.  That deserves a little special something and that means it’s NSFW (not safe for work).  Below is a pictorial that should get everyone’s weekend underway. Sea salt spray in the face, that tropical heat, the gentle hum of the yacht’s [...]

Crazy4Cult,  is an annual art show by Gallery 1988 in LA.   This past year’s show was in July and after seeing a few of the popular pieces, it’s a must see for next summer.
Interestingly enough, a good amount of the art is available online.  For the film buff with an inclination for modern [...]

The AMC network continues to add to it’s well-deserved success. The tandem of Breaking Bad and MadMen are the envy of every cable or network programmer.  Critical acclaim and a growing viewership give AMC a pair of must-see series that seem to have a few years ahead of them. Not one to rest on it’s [...]

The Daily Helping wants you to meet a wonderfully twisted artist named Hayley Cassat.  A graduate of  the California Institute of the Arts (CalArts).
Cassat has created a menagerie of animals that may have been cute, back in the day.  The eyes and body language of his bunnies, narwhals and ducks convey heavy drinking, depression [...]

There’s a film called “MONSTERS” which has been popping up at a few film festivals  and is now eagerly anticipated at the upcoming Frightfest (The Empire Cinema in Leicester Square, London  on the 26th of August to 30th).There’s been little to no publicity on this picture and no big names or studio attached. If [...]

A few months ago DailyHelping wanted an excuse to show some pretty hot pictures of Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis. With rumors of an on-screen kiss between these two,  Darren Aronofsky’s “Black Swan” generated some very early interest and Daily Helping was there to spread the word.
(The “kiss” seems to be part of some drugged, [...]

About 7 months ago, Daily Helping reported on the Coen Brothers upcoming western,  “True Grit.”  Immediately one envisions the fat, one-eyed icon made famous by John Wayne, in the sunset of his career.  This won’t be a remake of the Duke’s classic, for the Coens are looking to stick to the original novel which has [...]

The DailyHelping has no love for Kanye West or Twitter, but combine them with the always sublime cartoons from the New Yorker and you have something quite special.
Apparently Mr. West has recently discovered Twitter and is prolific in sharing his never ending flow of wisdom, social commentary and unfettered stream of consciousness.  So random and [...]

Named by “Time Magazine” as one of the top ten novels released in 2009, “The Windup Girl”  is something you should give a look.  Imagine reading “Clockwork Orange” or “The Planet of the Apes” before both became cinematic icons.  Remember that feeling having read William Gibson or Ray Bradbury for the very first time? This [...]

The average DailyHelping reader tends to have images on their screen that are not appropriate for work.  With some vague and fleeting sense of responsibility, the editors attempt to identify such links, clips and pictures as NSFW.  Imagine our surprise to learn that Playboy wants to move into SAFE FOR WORK territory.
On Tuesday, Playboy Enterprises [...]
