News of the Day for 4.24.10

• Yea! Just what China needs - a car show!
• Sunbeds can be addictive. So when will research show that whitening creams have a similar effect?
• Naps + dreams can aid in learning. No word yet on what dreaming about Korean pop stars helps anything.
• It's 2010, but good ol' racism is still chugging along. A story about a white family on vacation in Florida who insisted they not be served by 'people of colour' or anyone 'with a foreign accent'. It clearly did not occur to them that they, in fact, have a foreign accent when visiting the States.
• Malcolm Tucker, the master of the F-bomb and fictional character on the f-ing hilarious political comedy The Thick of It, provides a weekly election briefing over at the Guardian. It is fucking brilliant.
