LOVE LOVE LOVE her.  We are the same age.  It was love at first sight when I saw her in Pretty Baby.  Thank god for torrents down here in Australia.  I almost feel like I am on my big black sofa in Tribeca.

Multitasking can muddle your brain

Doing several things at once can feel so productive. But scientists say switching rapidly between tasks can actually slow us down.

Even though modern technology allows people to perform more tasks at the same time, juggling tasks can make our brains lose connections to important information. Which means, in the end, it takes longer because we have to remind our brains what we were working on.  via NPR

“What are you looking for in a typewriter?” the salesman asked. “Something more than words, ” I replied.  ”Crystals.  I want to send my reader armloads of crystals, some of which are the colors of orchids and peonies, some of which pick up radio signals from a secret city that is half Paris and half Coney Island.” (via Phantasmaphile)

There are so many style sites out there now.  I have many favourites, but the one I adore is Stockholm Street Style.  They photograph real people with real body shapes.  Not being a size 2, I love that they show the reality of the street.
