“Many of my movies have strong female leads–brave, self-sufficient girls that don’t think twice about fighting for what they believe in with all their heart. They’ll need a friend, or a supporter, but never a saviour”

Apples, Baku
Photograph by Erik Andre Juriks, Your Shot
The snow made me treat myself to some side streets while looking for photo opportunities on my way to work, this bitterly cold morning in Baku. The rapidly changing capital of Azerbaijan always has something in store. Just outside the centuries-old Taza Bazaar, I came across the unlikely sight of an old Soviet-era Volga brimming with golden winter apples. The strange beauty of the scene brought back childhood memories of apples carefully picked and stored in the basement of our home in Norway, and the apples turning sweeter as the months of winter went by. —Erik Andre Juriks

I dedicate this little number to all those who like to say Disney princesses are nothing but passive, submissive, and horrible role models.

gastronomista:

The best part of a Greyhound cocktail is the fresh squeezed grapefruit juice - giving it a refreshing zip that acts as a perfect vessel to deliver vodka to one’s body. The Greyhound is a classic cocktail, one that never fails.

Today, we’re bringing you a variation on the Greyhound - The Bad Dog Greyhound. A perfect cocktail for the bad, the fiery, the untamed.

We used Deep Eddy Ruby Red Grapefruit Vodka made in Austin Texas, Fresh Grapefruit Juice, and Bad Dog Fire and Damnation bitters to give it some serious kick. We rimmed the glass in salt and Rio Grande Chile Blend, and garnish with a whole Habanero Pepper - for the baddest dogs out there.

As our metamorphosis begins, San Francisco Magazine goes behind the scenes and reports on what it takes to deconstruct the museum.

SFMOMA’s soon-to-begin, three-year-long, $610 million metamorphosis has 280,000 moving parts—and that’s just the stuff in the trucks… Read more→

The numbers of everything is crazy

29,600: artworks to be moved (including more than 7,500 paintings and sculptures, 170 media works, and 16,000 photos).

$10 million: approximate cost to build a new fire station on Folsom Street, after razing the one on Howard Street to make room for the museum’s expansion.

60: workers required to remove Gu Wenda’s united nations—babel of the millennium, made of human hair and Elmer’s glue.

31 miles: tape used to secure packing materials and seal up boxes containing artworks.

$800: average cost of a glue gun used for foam-box assembly.

10,000+: cubic feet of lumber used to build crates and other moving materials.

0 feet: amount of bubble wrap used to transfer artwork (the bubbles can leave impressions on the art, so archival foam is used instead).
