Itâs hard to believe my friend John Kennedy Jr. was killed, with his wife Carolyn and sister-in-law Lauren, 25 years ago today. Time does not lessen the grief and loss. John was a personal, cultural and political connecter. A committed Democrat, he walked across the aisle with

via @NYTimes Fascinating graphics, projections and explanations. How will we care for our expanding aging populations while providing enough opportunities and jobs for our youth? Brilliant read for anyone leading teams, companies or future-thinkers.

RIP Jane Birkin, French icon, British expat, fashion, cinema + music legend. Her exquisite life was filled with chance meetings, job offers, moves, love and adventure. Her influence on fashion, movies and music will live on for years. Une vie incomparable!

She was a lithe beauty of 1960s European film, a famous musical collaborator and lover of Serge Gainsbourg, and the namesake of elegant Hermès handbags.
