I once met a model at her apartment to shoot, and in the elevator I noticed that floors 4 and 17 had no buttons. When I asked why, she casually replied “Oh, those are Lady Gaga’s floors. She lives on the 17th, but her closet is the entire 4th floor.”

I think about that everyday.

When my daughter was teeny her friend's mother asked if she wanted to stay for dinner. She though about it, and said, "What are you having for dinner?" She was given the answer, thought some more about it, and then said slowly, "Well what is MY family having for dinner?"

And I can confirm that what Sam says here is so. Kylo Ren’s mask has a larger muzzle in the Poe interrogation scene than the rest of the film, as it was the very first Kylo scene shot. The difference was so minor that it wasn’t worth fixing in post. #TheForceAwakens pic.twitter.com/dSfSobhetT

Today in Afghanistan

NYT:

One of the most devastating Taliban assassination strikes of the long Afghan war on Thursday killed a regional police chief with a larger-than-life reputation as one of the last stalwarts against the militants. The top American commander in Afghanistan narrowly escaped injury.

The assassination, just two days before national elections already undermined by violence, took place inside the provincial governor’s compound in Kandahar City.

In what appeared to be an insider attack, at least one gunman killed the police chief, as well as the provincial intelligence chief. The governor of Kandahar and another senior police commander were also targeted; reports about their fate were conflicting.

NYT:

Afghan Leader Blindsided by U.S. Meeting With Taliban, Officials Say

...

The American special envoy, Zalmay Khalilzad, just days after hearing the Mr. Ghani’s concerns in Kabul, the Afghan capital, flew to the gulf state of Qatar and quietly met with Taliban representatives. Mr. Ghani and his government heard of that meeting only through news reports, and found out further details not through his American allies — even after he asked — but through a Taliban statement, according to several officials with detailed knowledge of the developments.
