...on the dining room table:

From O Magazine, Three Questions for Israel Segal, Founder of Free Your Mane. The exchange that struck me:

Q: What's the secret? How were you able to make a product that's gentle and effective?

Segal: I was very demanding -- and very patient. I spent more than three years experimenting with formuals that could offer the best of nature and the best of chemistry.

From the June 29, 2011 issue of Women's Wear Daily, a profile of Glenda Bailey. In response to a question about speculation and rumors about her successor:

Any editor at the top of their game has to deal with that. It would be naive to believe everything you read about yourself in print. I just laugh it off....When you work on the 44th floor of a big building like this, it comes with the territory.

In the September 4, 2011 issue of the New York Times Magazine, a gallery of nine pairs of shears. I especially like the Vincent Nicolosi caption.

Guy Trebay's profile of Thakoon Panichgul and his "willed serenity." Something to meditate on:

There is so much pressure in the business to be something or not to be something, people dictating what I should be or do next, that you can get drunk on all the voices. . . . So what I've learned to do is to focus on what's in front of me right now, on what I'm doing today and not tomorrow, where I am now, not where I'm going to be or what kind of career I'm going to have or where I'm going to end up.
