Kim Jong-un has a new haircut and of course it's epic
North Korea leader Kim Jong-un has debuted his latest haircut — and it's a resplendent wedge of ludicrous joy, with a pair of dinky eyebrows to match.

The Dear Leader chose a meeting of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea on Wednesday to show off his new cut, a vertiginous tower of hair that fans out dramatically over his round face. Shaved sides and two hyphen-sized mini-brows complete Kim's look.

Yesterday, President Obama announced three new national monuments, including the gorgeous Browns Canyon National Monument pictured here. Located in Colorado, Browns Canyon will protect a stunning section of Colorado’s upper Arkansas River Valley, which features rugged granite cliffs, colorful rock outcroppings and mountain vistas that are home to a diversity of plants and wildlife.

The other new national monuments are Pullman National Monument in Illinois -- a location iconic for its history of labor unrest and civil rights advances -- and Honouliuli National Monument in Hawaii -- the site of an internment camp where Japanese American citizens, resident immigrants and prisoners of war were held captive during World War II. Since taking office, President Obama has protected more than 260 million acres of public lands and waters -- more than any other President -- helping to ensure that our public lands preserve all of America’s history. - U.S. Department of the Interior
