I was very upset to hear about Prince's death yesterday.  Isn't it strange how someone we've never met can have such an impact on us?  If you're familiar with his work, or moreso if you're not, here are a few things you should check out:

59 Things You May Not Know About Prince.

Prince's 2007 Super Bowl performance.  So much talent.  

A story from Questlove about a Prince concert he attended.

'Tis the season: how to cook asparagus.

Pulitzer Prize-winning essay that has changed how law enforcement interacts with rape victims.  This is a brutal, powerful story.

Harriet Tubman is going on the $20!  First woman and first African-American.  It's about damn time.

Finally, a great interview with Stella McCartney.  She just seems like the coolest.
