The Way It Was
“Women of all kinds seek and have always sought abortion: married, single, in their twenties, thirties, and forties, teenagers. Some have no children, some have several already. Some never want children, some want children later. They are churchgoers, atheists, agnostics. They are morally upright pillars of the community, they are prostitutes. They’re promiscuous, they’re monogamous, they’re recent virgins. They get pregnant under all kinds of circumstances: consensual sex, nonconsensual sex, sex that falls somewhere between consensual and nonconsensual. Some are drunk or using drugs, some never even touch an aspirin. Some use no birth control, some use birth control that fails.”
a worthy read.

oh, if i lived in LA...
“We don’t record these or live-stream them, so this really makes it special for the people in the room that night. In this Internet age where everything is available to everyone there are so few one-night only experiences, and this is one of them.” - Jason Reitman on his “Live Read” program.
Let’s all have a nice laugh at this letter from Sen. Chris Dodd and the MPAA:
A so-called “blackout” is yet another gimmick, albeit a dangerous one, designed to punish elected and administration officials who are working diligently to protect American jobs from foreign criminals.

(via Photo diary/From the deep archives: Jenny Holzer’s MARQUEES « another eye opens)
“I’ve been doing some very satisfying housecleaning, including going through a lot of old photos. Among them I found this set of snapshots documenting not only Jenny Holzer’s 1993 installation called “Marquees” (produced by Creative Time) but also pre-Disney 42nd Street.”
good stuff.
RIP, Eve Arnold. A true pioneer…
“Arnold is best remembered now for her portraits of politicians, musicians, and movie stars, most notably Marilyn Monroe, with whom she had a 10-year collaboration. She also photographed Joan Crawford, Marlene Dietrich, and others. But her long-term documentary work was her driving passion, according to Magnum.
“Themes recur again and again in my work. I have been poor and I wanted to document poverty; I had lost a child and I was obsessed with birth; I was interested in politics and I wanted to know how it affected our lives; I am a woman and I wanted to know about women,” she wrote in her 1976 book, The Unretouched Woman.”
