Powers of Ten
dottedswiss: love this film via creaturesofcomfort: Powers of Ten - Charles and Ray Eames In 1977, the Eames’ made a documentary short film about the scale of the universe.  Take a minute and make it full-screen! “We are like butterflies who flutter for a day and think its forever.” ~Carl Sagan I like that this minidoc shows not only the vast, but also the minute.

Feminist Fatale: Feminism, Cycling & the... →
bikeladiesunite: A great article by Liz over at Feminist Fatale. She found herself, like so many women before her, feeling empowered when she rode her bike in the harsh streets of LA. But when she helped start a women-only night at her local bike co-op, reactions became hostile in a terrifying and deeply anti-feminist way.
