Barack Obama Slow Jams The News On Late Night With Jimmy Fallon

Posted: 25 Apr 2012 04:51 PM PDT

President Obama made a stop at NBC's Late Night with Jimmy Fallon on Tuesday for a little slow jamming of the news. In front of a live college audience at the University of North Carolina, Obama talked about student loans while Fallon's house band the Roots jammed on a slow, sensual R&B beat, making the topic seem sexier than you ever thought possible.

Awesome Playgrounds by Monstrum

There is nothing like an awesome playground that makes you feel like a kid again! Danish Monstrum creates playgrounds with focus on design, motor challenges and safety.

Monstrum believes that playground design should be a reflection of the world surrounding us. We see the world as a place full of color. We meet boys that like pink and girls that likes trees, so why only play on a monkey frame and a sandbox, when you can play in a moon crater or a submarine or a giant spider or an enormous snail or a Trojans horse or a rocket or an ant or a princess castle. The fantasy is infinite. The visual effect can indulge from a far, a tall slide, a massive tower or a wave to play on can draw kids in from the street.

As artists and designers and through our experience with building theatrical set-design at numerous theaters in Copenhagen, we have the knowledge to combine elements where not only physical activities and play evolve, but also with a visual story that creates a space where fantasy thrives.

But despite covering 72 percent of Earth and supplying more than 70 percent of the world's oxygen, there's still a lot we don't know about our planet's life support system.
