Strict lacto-vegetarian here, who doesn’t wear animal skin.. I can proudly say: Fuck PETA, and fuck the stupid animal rights protesters who don’t know any better. When you become a veggie, you have to understand that humans are the dominant species on Earth, there’s no way to argue against that sensibly. For animals to live in peace, they HAVE to be killed, whether for meat or otherwise. Use India as an example, and I’ll tell you you’ve never been there. The cows sleep in the middle of the roads

Also: I know this has nothing to do with the video, or comment thread. I just wanted a mini-rant to put PETA supporters in their place.

A few years ago, Mario Batali neatly summed up the network’s formula to a reporter: “Look, it’s TV! Everyone has to fall into a niche. I’m the Italian guy. Emeril’s the exuberant New Orleans guy with the big eyebrows who yells a lot. Bobby’s the grilling guy. Rachael Ray is the cheerleader-type girl who makes things at home the way a regular person would. Giada’s the beautiful girl with the nice rack who does simple Italian food. As silly as the whole Food Network is, it gives us all a soapbox to talk about the things we care about.

Child was less interested in making it fast or easy than making it right, because cooking for her was so much more than a means to a meal. It was a gratifying, even ennobling sort of work, engaging both the mind and the muscles. You didn’t do it to please a husband or impress guests; you did it to please yourself. No one cooking on television today gives the impression that they enjoy the actual work quite as much as Julia Child did. In this, she strikes me as a more liberated figure than many of the women who have followed her on television.

His kitchen, where he cooks for his teenage sons, is mustard yellow. The countertops are quartz with deep blue veining, a stone that he said was ruinously expensive.

John Coltrane Interview (1960) (via retrofuturistic)

“There are some set things that I know, some devices that I know, harmonic devices that I know that will take me out of the ordinary path, you see, if I use them. But I haven’t played them enough and I am not familiar with them enough yet to take the one single line through them, so I play all of them you know trying to acclimate my ears so I can hear.”

“It’s annoying when people complain about the money,” the Vermont-based counselor, Michele Hernandez, said. “I’m at the top of my field. Do people economize when they have a brain tumor and are looking for a neurosurgeon? If you want to go with someone cheaper, or chance it, don’t hire me.”

Dr. Hernandez, a former Dartmouth admissions officer, says she counsels as many as 25 students in each high school grade each year. She also offers four-day “boot camps” every August in a Boston hotel, charging 40 incoming high school seniors as much as $14,000 each.
