I LEARNED THE HARD WAY, Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings
They don’t make quality soul music like this anymore. Well, actually they do. And by ”they,” we mean Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings. On this new album, Jones and her brassy backing band take us on a trip to the grooviest parts of the ’70s.
THE OWL BOX on Ustream
From the site that gave us the Shiba Inu Puppy Cam comes a new sensation: Molly the owl and her rabbit-eating chicks. Equal parts cute and gross.
EVE BEST on Nurse Jackie
The perfect combination of compassion and snark, Best’s Dr. O’Hara is a good part of Jackie’s life. And this season, she’s a good part of ours, too.

The saga of Henry VIII comes to an end after this season, but what a way to go. From game-changing marriages to Henry’s spiral into madness, season 4 boasts the most monumental drama the show’s seen yet.
SAWYER’S ”SON OF A BITCH” Video
Lost‘s bad boy has one of the most versatile catchphrases on TV. This Web clip helpfully collects six seasons’ worth of Sawyer swearing in wonder, confusion, joy, and, of course, all-out murderous rage.

NIGHT OF THE GOLDEN BUTTERFLY, by Tariq Ali
In the elegant final novel of his lauded Islam quintet, Ali concludes his historical epic — which began in 15th-century Spain — in the present day, with a global tale about families and religion.
THE PACIFIC on HBO
The 10-hour WWII miniseries — from exec producers Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg — makes the small screen feel bigger than ever, shocking you with its carnage and then leaving you in awe of its humanity. This week follows the 1st Marine Division as they land on the fortified island of Peleliu.
