Photo by Evan Agostini/Invision/AP, File) NEW YORK (AP) — Martha Stewart's first Uber ride was not a good thing. Stewart ordered the "most expensive version" Monday outside Tiffany's flagship store in New York City. As Stewart explained on Instagram , she wanted to be picked up on Fifth Avenue and 57th Street. Stewart wrote the first car did not show up and the second parked "halfway down" the street where she "could not see the license plate." That car was pointed in the wrong direction, delaying her journey as the car snaked through midtown Manhattan traffic. But the worst part was the car "was a mess inside and out!!!!!!!!" She posted a picture that showed debris on the floor and two water bottles. Uber says it was disappointed to hear about Stewart's first experience and has reached out to her and her team. … [Read more...] about Martha Stewart complains her first Uber ride was ‘a mess inside and out’

While the third installment is unlikely to get off the ground, Origins podcast host James Andrew Miller has now claimed that he has seen a script for the planned project.

Nothing coy about these ‘Working Girls’ photographs
Art lover Robert Flynn Johnson calls himself a curator, a distinguished label that means someone likes stuff and likes to differentiate this stuff from that stuff. He’s a guy who gets to the flea market early in the morning, and he’s particularly fascinated by old photographs. In addition to scholarly works about individual artists, he has published several books about the photographic treasures he’s unearthed. At a postcard show in Concord a few years ago, he bought two photos — professionally taken, crisply focused — of prostitutes. They were part of a collection, and eventually, Johnson contacted the seller and, and after much back and forth, bought a whole set of the photos. They were taken in 1892 at a brothel in Reading, Penn., by photographer William Goldman.
