WWW.50SHEKEL.COM l The Official 50 Shekel Website: "50 Shekel has emerged as the new Jewish Hip Hop artist of his generation. If you haven't already heard his spiel, you are in for a supreme kosher treat. His lyrics are hotter than homemade latkes on a Hanukah night and his rhyming comes straight from his Hebrew heart. Inspired by Hip Hop recording artist, 50 Cent's top-of-the-chart song, In Da Club, this Brooklyn raised Hebrew Homie finally found something to spiel about."

A Chilean artist is making a name for herself with an exhibition in which stuffed animals are transformed into household objects.
Artworks on display include a chick turned into a lamp, and 'sheep bag' - a lamb carcass fitted with handles.
Artist Caterina Purdy says her exhibition at the Experimental Arts Centre in Santiago is intended to be humorous but also makes a serious point.
She told Las Ultimas Noticias online: 'It is possible to see my work as something scary, but I find it beautiful.
'There is also irony and humour in my objects as well as a criticism of the way animals are treated by society.'"
