TV presenter Helen Skelton, 31, tells us about her average day...
7AM: As soon as I wake up I put on BBC breakfast. Then once I've heard the headlines I flick over to Good Morning Britain, to see what they're talking about.
10AM: While I'm checking my emails I'll have Spotify on. At the moment I'm listening to Emile Sande, Ed Sheeran and Clean Bandit – I love their song, Rather Be.
1PM: If I was having a treat lunch, there's a really nice Spanish tapas place near us in Stockton Heath called Ego. I like fish, so I'd usually have calamari, or maybe salmon.
3PM: There's a canal at the bottom of my garden, and I love to kayak in it. The BBC borrowed my kayak a couple of years ago and I never got it back, so I treated myself to a new one recently.
7PM: My husband James and I like going to the theatre. The last thing we saw was Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, which was amazing. The staging is so clever.
10PM: I used to be too fidgety for TV, but James has got me into watching boxsets. I love Game of Thrones and True Blood, but I'll only ever watch one episode at a time.
11PM: I like to read books before I go to sleep, especially sports autobiographies. I'm reading Harry Redknapp's at the moment. I also really enjoyed Kate Aides, I read that one four times.
Helen Skelton is the ambassador for Virgin Active's "Active Inspiration" campaign, to get half a million kids across the UK active. To learn more visit http://www.activeinspiration.info/

John Steer, English art historian, 83
Professor John Steer died on 20 February aged 83. Michael Liversidge, Emeritus Dean of Arts, remembers the man whose appointment as the first Lecturer in European Art at Bristol in 1959 marked the effective birth of the University's Department of History of Art.
John Richardson Steer was born in Bournemouth, attended Clayesmore School in Dorset, and took his first degree in History at Oxford (Keble College). He decided to go on from there to the Courtauld Institute of Art when he graduated as a result of visiting the Ashmolean Museum and hearing some lectures on Venetian art by a visiting scholar from the Courtauld, Johannes Wilde – one of the great generation of immigrant art historians who helped to establish the subject in Britain when they were forced to leave Germany in the 1930s, an exodus that brought, among others, Sir Ernst Gombrich and Sir Nikolaus Pevsner to this country....

Vettel goes from F1 fan favorite to villain
As Sebastian Vettel has established himself as the most dominant Formula One driver of his generation, racing fans have come to see him as the boyish, fun-loving face of the glamorous series.
But after his victory in the Malaysian Grand Prix on Sunday, a more complex image of the German has emerged - that of a ruthless, cunning driver who will do whatever it takes to win a race and possibly his fourth consecutive drivers' championship.
The 25-year-old German ignored team orders and overtook Red Bull teammate Mark Webber for the victory with 10 laps remaining. The move left Webber fuming and raised questions about who is truly in charge at Red Bull.
''I think it blemished his reputation,'' three-time F1 champion Jackie Stewart said.
''It was an unfortunate error of judgment by Sebastian and it will linger for some time,'' Stewart told The Associated Press. ''There will be an awareness from now on that he may not be as stable as we originally thought.''
Since winning his first grand prix in 2008 with Toro Rosso, Vettel proved he was one of F1's most exciting drivers and considered the heir to countryman and seven-time champion Michael Schumacher.
After coming back to win the championship last year, Vettel became the first driver with three titles in a row since Schumacher's five straight from 2000-04. The only other driver to win at least three consecutive championships was Juan Manuel Fangio from 1954-57.
Along the way, Vettel displayed a persona that was almost boring in racing circles. Rather than model girlfriends, tattoos and nights spent at glitzy discos, Vettel came off as modest in person. He talked on the Red Bull website about his mother's home cooking and how there are things more important than a person's ''bank account.''
On the track, he was aggressive but rarely reckless during his championship runs. While Lewis Hamilton had several run-ins with Felipe Massa in 2011 and Romain Grosjean caused more than one first-lap crash last year, Vettel appeared content with simply winning races or doing enough to keep his championship run intact.
He overcame adversity last year, finishing one place behind Fernando Alonso in Abu Dhabi despite starting in the pits because of a penalty in qualifying for fuel irregularities. It preserved his championship lead.
But Vettel also has shown signs of impatience, most troubling in 2010 when Webber was ahead of him in a race. That time, they crashed when Vettel tried to overtake, spoiling what was a near-certain 1-2 finish.
He was largely forgiven for the Turkey crash, partly because of his youth.
But the latest incident has set off a firestorm of criticism on F1 websites and Twitter in which the German is portrayed for the first time as a villain. The British press has been especially tough, calling him egotistical, selfish and even immoral. Fans have called for him to be punished in some way - possibly suspended for a race.
Vettel hasn't responded beyond the apology he made minutes after the victory, and it seems the team is standing by its top driver.
Red Bull team leader Christian Horner didn't defend Vettel but tried to downplay the controversy.
''Obviously it wasn't right what he did. He accepts that,'' Horner said. ''He clearly said if he could wind the clocks back he wouldn't do it again. That is the way it is. We need to put it behind us. It's not like it hasn't happened before.''
On Wednesday, Red Bull adviser Helmut Marko said the issue had been ''settled'' amid reports that Vettel had visited the team's factory in Milton Keynes and apologized to every staff member for his behavior.
''They don't have to be completely on the same page, but it must be a solid working partnership,'' Marko said. ''There was a debrief afterward with the relevant discussions about the race and then there was a handshake between the two drivers. For us now the issue is settled.''
Critics wonder if it will be that easy after Sunday.
Webber's father said he will continue at Red Bull, and Stewart said the Australian wouldn't be able to find a more competitive car elsewhere.
''If Mark would go anywhere else, it would be to Ferrari,'' Stewart said. ''But Mark would face the same problems with Alonso at Ferrari as he would face with Vettel at Red Bull.''
If he doesn't leave, it could benefit the other teams.
McLaren's Jenson Button, who had his own troubles with former teammate Hamilton, told the Daily Mail he doubts the issue will go away anytime soon and that it could lead to the two drivers fighting among themselves rather than concentrating on other title contenders.
''Hopefully, it does help us,'' he said.

Coachellas Vegan Fare Spotlighted by LA Times
The music festival had plenty of plant-based offerings for patrons to nosh.
LA Times recently featured the plethora of cruelty-free food options at Southern California's Coachella festival. The yearly arts and music event takes place in Palm Springs, CA, drawing a crowd of more than 200,000 last year. "Coachella dining is essentially a weekend-long Treat Yo Self Day––and even more so for meat-avoiders," writes LA Times' August Brown. This year's vegan fare featured offerings such as curried tofu, and a black beans and rice bowl with plantains from The Jamaican Ital stand; spicy vegan burgers from Green Truck's veggie burger menu; and whiskey and ginger-infused cocktails from a bar in the Rose Garden.

Best Coffee and Dessert Place in Manhattan?
- e
- exnewyorkgirl Feb 24, 2008 11:32 PM
Would love to take friends to a great place for coffee / dessert / live music when we visit Manhattan next weekend, but want to go someplace where they don't pull the desserts out of a freezer and thaw them (e.g. Starbucks). Can anyone give me a good recommendation?
re: 280 Ninth
I went back to Madeleine on Saturday - had a couple macarons, and was pleased that they seemed a bit less sweet than they were before. The pistachio pain au chocolat was divine, for some reason, the regular, less so.
I recommend Tisserie. They've got both fantastic coffee and some of the best pastries in town, IMO. 17th & Broadway
Café Sabarsky, housed in a former UES mansion that has been turned into the Neue Galerie, has fantastic Viennese pastries and Julius Meinl coffee in a beautiful old world atmosphere. It is by far my favorite place for coffee and dessert in the city. And if you can get in on cabaret night, there should be ample live music as well.
re: JungMann
I second Cafe Sabarsky. I think its the best coffee in town and the desserts are just as good. Having said that, it's not a coffeehouse in the Maynard G. Krebs kind of way.
Not sure what you're looking for. If you want some vegan desserts and decent coffee -- but great atmosphere try Hopscotch on Avenue A between 8 and 9th streets. (They also own Cake Shop, where you can get some records or listen to music - in the West Village)
These recommendations are opposite of the others' recommendations- different atmosphere and vibe.
La Lanterna on Macdougal street is the perfect choice. A phenomenal dessert menu with every kind of pie you can imagine plus other cakes and goodies. There is a dinner menu too but just go for dessert -that's what most people do. The warm, cozy atmosphere with several fire places, an enclosed garden make for a great setting. Head downstairs to hear live jazz while you sip your coffee and indulge in a warm piece of peach crumb pie.
For more reviews visit: www.hermanweb.us/category/food-reviews/
re: skepner169
You are right. This will be perfect. Exactly what I'm looking for. Is it crazy busy on a weekend evening? Will it be standing room downstairs?
re: exnewyorkgirl
I have never had trouble getting a table downstairs even on the weekend so I don't think you will have problem. People tend to come and go. I've never called to see if you can reserve a table but I bet you can. Enjoy!
re: skepner169
Serendipity - if you can catch it open between Health Dept. closings.
If you want a combo of coffee, dessert and live classical music, there's Cafe Mozart on the Upper West Side.
I like Max Brenner for everything chocolate. They even have a good selection of chocolate beer and cocktails. It's right around the corner from Union Station. www.maxbrenner.com
re: porky pine
I assume you mean Union Square?
re: JungMann
Sorry. I did mean Union Square.
Finding live music with your coffee and dessert is something of a challenge, but it seems like the OP has found her suggestions. So I will venture to add a few other names without the music, all good but not necessarily "the best":
Veniero's - if you're in the East Village
Taralucci e Vino cafe - ditto
Ferrara's - in Little Italy (although I haven't been there in years)
Anybody been to Sant Ambroeus recently (West Village or Upper East Side)?

text: Thank you victor for your informative post. I've been thinking along these lines for some time now. It was the "micro contrast" thing that I had not heard about before this. It helped to clear up some of my ideas. I've started to taylor my film development times to local contrast rather than over all contrast. Controlling the overall contrast by minimizing agitation and higher dilution developers. I've found that this method gives the less exposed areas time to fully develop and separate fully. My negatives now have a life and fullness they never had before. (in the prints, of course!)

Making decisions that don't matter that much to me
More posts about: decision // 8 Comments »
I minimize the number of decisions I care about. What I'm going to do with my life? Big decision worth spending time on. Is something worth it? I can spend hours analyzing the trade-offs. What do I want to eat? I don't particularly care. I'm trying to avoid decision fatigue. Decisions take up time and willpower. Also, I'm trying to minimize attachment. Everything's going to be okay.
W- asked me what colour I would like the deck to be. I looked at the dozens of swatches all neatly laid out, and I boggled at him. It's like when people ask me where I want to eat. Beats me. At least there, I can use a rule of thumb: closest $-$$ place rated at least 3.5 stars on Yelp that's still open at this time of day and that satisfies everyone's dietary restrictions.
If I don't care about the outcome of a decision – if multiple alternatives are not significantly different in terms of their value to me – I'll tell people I don't care strongly enough to decide. That way, they don't mistake a casual opinion for a strongly-held opinion and end up regretting being overruled. If people really want me to participate, I'll support whatever people suggest, and I'll help people remember their reasons for or against something. I'll also ask questions to draw out reasons and make off-the-wall suggestions to add humour.
This is probably not quite what people are looking for. Usually, when people ask for your opinion on something, it's because they want it.
My default is to not have an opinion. Maybe I should. It's pretty easy to pick something and then let your brain fill in the reasons for it. People learn more about their choices in the negotiation.
Or maybe I should just have a more structured approach when people ask me about things I don't have an opinion about. List alternatives, costs, benefits; make diagrams; graph arguments. That way, even if I don't have an opinion, I can contribute value.
We discussed a few stain options. W- picked one and painted the deck with it. He thought it looked too gray in the sunlight. He stripped it back down and started looking for a different colour. (While I'm easily distracted from finishing my tasks and a big fan of getting things 80% okay, W- is awesome at persistence, and is working on getting around the sunk costs fallacy.)
I don't mind. It gives me more opportunities to be supportive of projects and experiments, even though I am probably not yet filling the more useful role of the Voice of Reason. I think being able to use the Voice of Reason needs experience anyway. (They say good decisions come from experience, and experience comes from bad decisions. Not that this was a bad decision; it's just a different outcome.)
I'm going to be asked for my opinion of or recommendation for many many things in life, especially as I move into my thirties. People assume twenty-somethings don't know very much, except maybe about tech. Thirty-somethings probably don't know much either, but are expected to have Opinions. Might as well learn.
How do you handle being asked for your opinion when you haven't given something much thought?
8 responses to "Making decisions that don't matter that much to me"
I often choose randomly in those cases, to the point of illustrating it with a child's riddle if the environment isn't too formal (am stram gram, pick et pick et colegram, bourre et bourre et ratatam, am, stram, gram.)
I realized that in those cases I don't really care about the outcome not caring from the start makes it even easier to accept what you have chosen in the end.
I'm learning to limit the things I concern myself with so that I can focus on making those things awesome. =) Everything else – why worry?
Remember, if the choice doesn't matter, it doesn't matter what you choose.
And of course there's what the Cheshire cat told Alice when she asked which way she ought to go. =)
Smart kitty.
But seriously, it really reduced my general agita considerably when I realized that if I didn't see an advantage to choice _i_ of _n_ possibles, then maybe it didn't matter which one I chose.
"I don't believe in taking right decisions. I take decisions and then make them right"- Ratan TaTa
If there's a clear preference then the choice is easy; make it. If there's not a clear preference then the choice is hard. But it's exactly when the choice is hard that the options are worth about the same to you. So that's when it matters the least.

As for your question: if someone is asking me advice on a decision, and I haven't thought about that specific decision, I'll usually give advice on how I'd approach that type of decision in general, including bringing up the question of "how much does it matter to you?"
