"Untitled" by Aashit Desai, India
"In India, turmeric is not just a spice but it has also a religious connotation, since centuries ago. It is, if used for this purpose, to be considered as a purification agent. Purifying the body and soul. Manjal Neerattu, which means bathing with turmeric water, is a ritual followed by the people of Chengannur, Kerala, at the Vandimala temple. Boiling the water mixed with turmeric powder, they, using palm leaves, whip their bodies with the boiling hot concoction." – Aashit Desai

Maureen Dowd On Ad Making Fun Of The Time She Got Super High: "I Love It"
“Don’t let a candy bar ruin your vacation.” Dowd tells BuzzFeed News: “I love it. I’m going to make it my Christmas card.”

Earlier this summer, New York Times writer Maureen Dowd ate edibles in her hotel room in Colorado and found herself "curled up in a hallucinatory state for the next eight hours," so high that she "thought she was dead." She documented the experience in a column that the internet ate up.
Now it looks like she has another fan: The Marijuana Policy Project, an organization working for marijuana policy reform in the United States, has released a new ad campaign that clearly pokes fun at the now-infamous Dowd column. The billboard features a red-headed Dowd look-alike sitting alone in a hotel room, and the phrase: "Don't let a candy bar ruin your vacation."

The ad will appear on a billboard in Denver, Colorado, the Washington Examiner reports, and on the organization's website. While some think the campaign is making fun of Dowd's edible escapades, the columnist doesn't have an issue with the billboard.
"I I love it," Dowd told BuzzFeed News in an email. "I'm going to make it my Christmas card."
Then she added, "But some of my friends have pointed out that the hotel room looks way too tidy."
The Marijuana Policy Project has not yet returned BuzzFeed's request for comment.

17 Reasons The Middle East Is Actually A Great Place For Vegetarians
So. Much. Eggplant.
There's that moment every vegetarian in the Middle East fears: Dinner was going so well — until you came out as a non-meat eater.
Suddenly everyone begins to look at you like you've gone mad. Then come the various stages of denial: Oh, so you say you're a vegetarian? Well, let me put some meat on your plate as if you didn't say a thing.
I mean, why wouldn't you eat the most expensive part of the meal? You'll die otherwise.
Sure, everyone is fretting because they just want you to be happy. But let's be real here for a moment: There's still SO much vegetarian goodness to enjoy.
Because everywhere you go there's a stand like this bursting with fresh flavor.
And maybe some extra protein masked as bugs.

Watch The Man Who Raced The Tube And Won
Now that’s an exciting commute.
This is James Heptonstall. He wanted to see if he could run faster than the tube. So he decided to race it from Mansion House to Cannon Street.
That's a 380m run between the two stops on the Circle Line, including 75 steps and two ticket barriers. With a GoPro strapped to his head, and his mate Noel Carroll recording things from the train.
Ready, steady, go!
To beat the tube, he had 80 seconds to run through the station at Mansion House...
...through (or possibly over) the ticket barriers...

How Cleaning Out My Closet Helped Me Embrace My Body
After years of keeping clothing that didn’t fit, I finally decided to kick the bad habit with some help from a professional stylist. What I found was that there was more to what I wear and don’t wear than I thought.
David Bertozzi / BuzzFeed
I have nothing to wear.
This is how I've started my day for as long as I can remember: in front of the closet, unsure of what to choose, facing a rack bursting with fabric. As I stand there, I flip through my options: This shirt is too big. This one leaves a gap between the buttons at the boobs. Is this one even mine? I'm a bit of a pack rat when it comes to my clothing and at the end of every season I donate what I haven't been wearing to charity, but somehow I still have tons of stuff that I don't wear. How did I get here?
That's the same question that Cindy Gordon, the stylist and owner of Wardrobe Therapy by Cindy Gordon, asked me when she saw my closet. I've hired her to go through my wardrobe piece by piece and tell me what's no longer serving me. I've known for a while that I needed to make a change, but kept hitting roadblocks to actually moving forward.
Truthfully, I've never felt particularly comfortable in clothing and have always been adamant that it's what's inside that matters. But that hasn't made it any easier to dress myself. I don't look like girls in fashion magazines, and the style that I've always lusted after doesn't work for my body type, so I've by and large just ignored the whole concept of fashion. One of the biggest hurdles with my closet is that my weight fluctuates. I never want to get rid of clothing, but I also never want to buy anything new, because I'm hopeful that my weight gain is "temporary." So rather than owning clothes that actually fit, I have a veritable graveyard of outfits.
David Bertozzi / BuzzFeed
As Cindy and I go through each of my items I tell the same story. "I don't wear it because it's really unflattering." She asks me why I still own it. That's a damn good question. I really don't know. My closet is broken down into sections. My jeans are stacked by size. I even keep a pair that is two sizes smaller because I swear one day they'll fit and I'll want them. But I haven't worn them in ages, and instead of keeping me motivated, they're a reminder of my failure to get back to the size that I wanted to be. On top of this, I suffer from body dysmorphia and have no concept of the true shape of my body. I spend almost all of my time worrying about what I look like and dwell on the small flaws that I see when I look in the mirror. I've never wanted anyone to see my body out of fear of them seeing what I see, a shapeless blob. So for years I've purchased things that are too big for me. I swim in fabric at all times. But I don't know what else to do. The idea of wearing form-fitting clothing is terrifying. Deep in me, I wonder if I have the type of body that should be "allowed" to be seen. I worry that people around me are all talking about my body. So instead I wear a size too big and hope that no one looks at me long enough to notice my shape.
I knew that this was going to be the first thing that Cindy would talk to me about and I was right. Each shirt in my closet is bigger than the last and as she shows me in the mirror how the folds of clothing are enveloping my frame, I can finally see the difference. We separate my clothing into three sections — things to keep, things to sell, things to donate — and begin the process of wading through the piles. Where things were once separated by size, they're now organized by style (long sleeve shirts, short sleeve shirts, sleeveless shirts) and then further designated by color. After going through everything I currently own, we assess my needs and make a plan to go shopping.

This Official Millennium Falcon Video Is Also A "Dark Knight" Homage
It’s part of a running joke on social media between Star Wars: Episode VII director J.J. Abrams and Batman v Superman director Zack Snyder. And it is getting a little weird.
On Thursday, J.J. Abrams' production company Bad Robot posted this video of the first official look at the Millennium Falcon in Star Wars: Episode VII. But it turns out to be something more... And weirder.
We start with the familiar chords from John Williams' Star Wars score as the camera pans over a tight close-up of the Falcon.
So far, so head-explodingly good.

But then, the music shifts...to Hans Zimmer's Dark Knight score?

And the camera zooms in on… Is that?… Yup, the Batmobile from Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy.
On the Millennium Falcon. What the what?
