The Secrets To Reading Faster And Absorbing Information Better As a history major, people always asked me how I could stand reading a boatload of books every week. While I answered them, they’d usually stare at my bookshelf and faint, much like I do when looking at equations on a whiteboard. What is my secret? 1. A lot of authors like to speak in an arcane manner initially, throwing out long-winded, incomprehensible phrases for the first several pages of their book. You don’t really need to know the biography of the author, do you? The other benefit of this is that all of that nonsense at the beginning of the book will make a lot more sense when you know exactly where the author is going. 2. One of the mistakes people make early on is that they give up highlighting, either because they end up marking too many things or were told by teachers that it’s a useless endeavor. 3.

Hollywood Halloweens before the Twitter selfie: Vintage photos catch celebr By Daily Mail Reporter Published: 20:10 GMT, 31 October 2013 | Updated: 13:40 GMT, 1 November 2013 Before celebrities could show off their yearly Halloween costumes on Twitter and the Today show, they took regular photos that most people would never see. Thankfully, we can still use the wonders of the internet to gaze into a past when Joni Mitchell wore blackface as a pimp, Brooke Shields skated in a disco dressed as Charlie Chaplin, and a very young Drew Barrymore was a crayon. Some of these celebrities date even further back, to when not only were there no computers, but most homes didn’t even have televisions. Even then, silent screen legend Clara Bow smoldered in a 1929 Halloween photoshoot and Howard Hughes managed to be debonair while wearing traditional Alpine garb at a 1934 Halloween bash thrown by actress Marion Davies. These photos prove that the Kardashians didn’t invent Hollywood Halloweens, and that there were celebrity costume shots well before there were selfies.
