Black Women’s Transitions to Natural Hair -... →
A lovely mini documentary! When I set out to make a documentary about black women who are “transitioning” — cutting off their chemically straightened hair and embracing their natural kinky afro texture — I had no intention of appearing in the film. But including my own story forced me to examine how I felt about my hair with more honesty than ever before. Click link above to watch.

Awesome. Just.... Awesome. PLUTO GONE BUT NOT...
rubywhiterabbit: My little brother got into outer space and stuff so my step-mom bought him a place mat with all the planets on it. When I first saw it, I was upset, because it was newer and so Pluto wasn’t labeled. I was about to say something when I noticed something… Pluto is there. The artist remembered Pluto. Guys… The artist drew Pluto crying. Where can I get this?

Google Privacy Inquiries Get Little Cooperation -... →
After months of negotiation, Johannes Caspar, a German data protection official, forced Google to show him exactly what its Street View cars had been collecting from potentially millions of his fellow citizens. Snippets of e-mails, photographs, passwords, chat messages, postings on Web sites and social networks — all sorts of private Internet communications — were casually scooped up as the...
