This Website Is Like The LinkedIn For Love For Single Indians
Like all great professional résumés, it lets users list their education, work experience, height, and complexion.
Finding a suitable partner for marriage is a very serious task for all single Indians' parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts, neighbors, and neighbors' uncles and aunts.
Yash Raj Films / Via filmyaces.com
The most integral element in the search for suitable partners is their biodata, or résumé.
To attract prospective partners, the biodata must showcase all your amazing accomplishments, like being fair-skinned, extremely wealthy, or, in this person's case, "sexually unfit."
For many years, Indians have shared their matrimonial biodatas through newspaper ads or word-of-several-pesky-relatives'-mouths.
But in this revolutionary technological era of LinkedIn and Yo, four Harvard Business School grads decided it was time to digitize the marital manhunt. Enter easybiodata.com where singles can create, upload, and share their biodata.

31 Actors Who Deserve First-Time Emmy Nominations
It’s time for some fresh blood!
Jarett Wieselman for BuzzFeed
No disrespect meant to perennial faves, but the increasing predictability of the outstanding acting Emmy nominations has lent the annual awards show a sense of repetition.
Oh, cool, Bryan Cranston. Neat, Claire Danes. Yes, hello again, Dame Maggie Smith.
And while those nominations would definitely be warranted again this year, it's time to inject a much needed sense of surprise into the Aug. 25 proceedings by honoring these 31 deserving first-time nominees, presented below in alphabetical order:
Uzo Aduba, Orange Is the New Black
The fact that Aduba exclusively refers to this character by her given name, Suzanne, and not her disparaging nickname, Crazy Eyes, helps explain why you feel so much empathy for Litchfield’s most unhinged inmate. Which is not to undersell the insanity; in fact, because Aduba created such a three-dimensional human being, watching the character’s unsettling conniption fits becomes a test of the viewer's emotional endurance. —Jarett Wieselman
Netflix
Lizzy Caplan, Masters of Sex
Strong, insightful, unexpected, and sexy are adjectives that apply to Lizzy Caplan’s career-redefining performance and to her Masters of Sex character, Virginia Johnson. But perhaps the most significant accomplishment is that Caplan is able to infuse the progressive Johnson with a sense of modernity without making her a forward-thinking character in retrospect. Through her performance, the viewer can sense the impending revolution because it’s never openly winked at. —J.W.

"Boyhood" Is An Epic Movie About Life's Ordinary Moments
Richard Linklater’s latest film chronicles the process of growing up like no other movie.
Ellar Coltrane in Boyhood.
IFC Films
Richard Linklater's Boyhood is a big movie in all sort of ways, but most of all, in terms of time. Shot over a dozen years and running just over two and a half hours long, it stretches out in that dimension in a way that no other film has, outside of maybe the Up documentary series. In showing 12 years in the life of Mason Jr., an ordinary Texas boy making his way toward young adulthood, it also captures how star Ellar Coltrane and the movie's other cast members change and age, entering teenagerdom or middle age over the course of the film, ending it as both the same and very different people from who they were when it began.
But Boyhood, which opens this Friday in New York and L.A. and in more cities the week after, also brings to mind a six-minute YouTube video. A specific one — "Everyday," in which photographer Noah Kalina took a daily snapshot of himself, and compiled six years of results into a viral sensation. Set to a moody piano track composed by Kalina's then-girlfriend, the video uses the most mundane of materials — selfies taken against backdrops of cluttered New York rooms — to summon a sensation that's melancholy and profound. It's a look at how time works on one person and a reminder that it's doing the same to us all.
Noah Kalina's "Everyday."
Noah Kalina
Kalina's continued the project — in 2012, he released a new, longer version that encompasses 12 and a half years, which is about the span of Boyhood's production. It's labeled "A Work in Progress," a promise of more and a reminder that the point of the video is to document a process that only stops when its creator does.
There's a similar feeling of open-endedness to Boyhood, which begins with Mason as a 6-year-old and ends when he's heading to college, a lanky teenager giving off glimpses of the man he'll eventually be. Boyhood doesn't really follow an arc, though it catches the ups and downs that would describe anyone's life. In its opening shot, it pulls out to reveal its protagonist lying on the grass on an unexceptional but beautiful day, and when it comes to a close, it's not after something major has happened to Mason or because he's reached a particular moment of understanding. It ends because leaving home is as good a time as any for the film to bow out, just as its subject is beginning a next step in his life.
