IT’S LIKE KATE MOSS SAID: NOTHING FEELS AS GOOD AS NOT BEING JET LAGGED LOOKS
Fasting helps beat jet lag because your body worries more about potential starvation than your circadian rythm (from Harper’s via Andrew Sullivan):
“According to the Harvard team, the fast works because our bodies have, in addition to our circadian clock, a second clock that might be thought of as a food clock or, perhaps better, a master clock. When food is scarce, this master clock suspends the circadian clock and commands the body to sleep much less than normally. Only after the body starts eating again does the master clock switch the circadian clock back on…The master clock probably evolved because when our prehistoric forebears were starving, they would have been tempted in their weakness to sleep rather than forage for the food they needed to survive…”

Remembering when the internet was tacky
“I started my online store about three years ago, not especially early.
But, weirdly, within other brands my size, it was sort of early. Even a huge brand like Prada had the most basic, junior- league website up until 3 years ago.
The Internet was seen as a little bit gross, somehow, almost a little bit tacky — if you were selling expensive clothes, you weren’t supposed to be selling them on a website.” - Patrik Ervell

Case in point, this video.
At what point has the web stopped driving the cinematography of the Bourne films and have the Bourne films started driving the cinematography of the web?

I’ve watched this so many times and only now caught that the German’s are playing a 4-2-4!
The 4-2-4 is the now somewhat mythical formation made famous by Brazil’s World Cup winning sides of 1958 and 1970.

‘It’d be pathetic, starting a band at 45.’
“Because really, I haven’t got fuck all to say. I can’t stand as still as Liam, which apparently was mesmerizing. I can’t dance -I’ve got no moves. I don’t do magic tricks. I look a bit grumpy. Do you know what I mean? If you’re coming to see anything, there’s nothing to see.” Noel Gallagher, here.
