Daryl Herman, great idea!
A group of anti-Islam activists in Denmark decided to wake up the liberal Mayor of Roskilde at 5am because he supported a new mosque that could be allowed to blast the Muslim call to prayer early in the morning.
According to InfoWars, Stop the Islamization of Denmark (SIAD) visited both Mogensen and Bishop Peter Fischer Møller after both appeared in a photo-op to promote the building of the new mosque.
The activists were worried that the new mosque would be allowed to broadcast the early morning call to prayer on loudspeakers.
As such, the activists decided to blast the Islamic call to prayer outside of the mayor and bishop's house to show them how annoying it would be to live near the mosque.
Let us know in the comments what you think.

Insurance for Assisted Living Facilities and Nursing Homes
When a loved one moves into an assisted living facility, you want to make sure their personal belongings are protected from the unexpected. By adding nursing/assisted living facility personal property and liability coverage to your homeowners policy, you can ensure their peace of mind.
Adding Nursing Home and Assisted Living Insurance to Your Homeowners Policy
If the nursing home or assisted living facility where your loved one lives is located in the American Family Insurance operating territory, you can add this coverage to your homeowners policy.
A person is eligible for coverage if they are relatives of the homeowners policyholder, the spouse of the policyholder, the registered domestic partner of the policyholder in Nevada, Oregon or Washington or in a registered civil union with the policyholder in Colorado or Illinois.
Other individuals can be eligible for coverage if the holder of the homeowners policy has legal proof of power of attorney or guardianship of that individual.
Add this coverage and rest assured that your loved one has just the right amount of personal property and liability protection.
Personal Property Coverage
Any property owned or in the care of your loved one is covered by this additional coverage up to the limits you've selected. The coverage is valid while the insured resides in the facility, no matter if their residence is temporary or permanent.
Coverage limits are available from $6,000 to $15,000 and carry a deductible of $500.
For example: Your grandmother is listed on your homeowners policy's nursing/assisted living facility personal property and liability endorsement. The facility she lives in experiences a fire and her dresser, clothing and personal items are damaged or destroyed. But she shouldn't worry — and neither should you — because those personal items are covered.
Personal Liability Coverage
Similar to the liability coverage provided by your homeowners policy, your relatives are covered if they're found liable for accidental injuries to others or damages to others property. However, any injuries to personnel of the nursing home or assisted living facility are not covered by this addition.
Renters Insurance
Nursing and assisted living coverage isn't meant to cover more than $15,000 worth of personal property — and for those who need coverage that exceeds that value, we recommend talking with your agent about a renters policy.
Your loved one deserves the best care and insurance coverage for themselves and their belongings. Talk with your American Family Insurance agent to make sure your relative's living facility can be covered by your homeowners policy.

From the 16th of April to the 1st of June, the AOP (Association of Photographers) will be celebrating its 50 year anniversary with an exhibition called "AOP50: Images That Defined The Age" at the lobby of One Canada Square (Canary Wharf, London E14 5AB). Alongside these memorable 50 images, a digital exhibition of work by current AOP Accredited Photographers will be shown on a screen, including the image "The Anglomaniac" from my Brexiters project.
AOP50 is a retrospective which includes images by some of the world's most well-known and respected photographers from the past 50 years. Curated by Zelda Cheatle, the collection of images celebrates 50 years of the AOP with photographs that illustrate the impact, diversity and quality of work by AOP members since 1968. As the AOP's Executive Director, Seamus McGibbon, explains, "many of the images have defined a generation, and helped to shape public opinion and to create change."
Last night during the opening reception, while I looked around at the fantastic work on display I couldn't help but feel proud of belonging to a group of professionals that sets the bar really high and makes me want to improve myself every day.
Come celebrate this important milestone of the AOP with this free public exhibition, open daily from 7 am to 8 pm.

As strange as it may sound, Colleen decided to become certified as a personal trainer while she was the executive director of a mental health clinic. As an avid runner, Colleen has experienced the positive impact running and other fitness activities has had on her mood and ability to manage stress. She also saw that many of her clinic's clients had poor physical fitness, and she was certain that better physical fitness could help lead to better mental fitness and health. Colleen developed a therapeutic lifestyles class, which included an exercises component, for clients who experienced depression and anxiety. Colleen was thrilled with how the class impacted the mental health of those who attended. Colleen also saw that this class would benefit anyone who wanted to increase energy, improve mood and increase coping skills.

Do the Opposite
I allowed my head to drop onto the arm of the big comfy chair in our living room. I scooched down a little further until I arrived at that perfectly comfortable place that was sure to lead to a very appealing unscheduled nap. The only problem was that I had a long bike ride on my training schedule for the day. Although I had just had a really good night's sleep, the last thing I felt like doing was going for a long bike ride. After all, my "big goal" is about 50 weeks away, I reasoned to myself; what difference would missing this ride make in achieving that goal? My brain was spilling out all kinds of reasons why it would make good sense to skip today's long ride – except that it didn't really make good sense. Yes, there are times when we need to listen to the body and take a break, but I knew this was not one of those times…. [Read More]

text: Share: Comments Print March 23, 2012 at 11:41 PM Sigi Schmid: "I was pleased with the way our team came in and battled." (postgame quotes) Posted by Joshua Mayers Photo credit: John Lok, The Seattle Times (full gallery here) * * * SIGI SCHMID, Sounders FC head coach (Opening statement…) "Over the course of the season, you've got to win games in different ways. Today was a little more of one of those games where you've just got to roll up your sleeves and you've got to battle and persevere. I thought Houston played very well at times and had control of the game at certain times, but I thought we showed a very good resiliency. We scored two timely goals — the goal and the PK, which I think was a PK — and in the second half I think we held our own. We should have maybe got a third through Roger on that one chance, but I was pleased with the way our team came in and battled and the character they showed today." (On David Estrada getting another goal, somewhat fortuitously…) "It's going good. When it's going good, it's going good, so you can shoot on goal and get a little bit of a deflection and score goals. But he did well. When you work really hard, you get rewarded." (On Michael Gspurning's play…) "I thought Michael had a very good game tonight. He made that one save early in the game when the score was 0-0, the one that he tipped over the bar going to his right and he tipped it over with his left hand. I thought he did well. He came out and did well on a couple of crosses, ones he punched out and collected. I thought it was a good game tonight for Michael's confidence and also for the fans to see his quality tonight." (On using Scott and Levesque as injury replacements…) "Well, obviously Zach Scott we thought was a good choice at right back because he's going to win those aerial duels and those battles, and I think he helped us defensively, for sure. Roger is never going to short you on work rate. We maybe weren't as creative on the right-hand side as we are at times, for sure, but I thought both of the guys did what they needed to do in terms of the effort they put in. I thought they did a good job of bottling up Brad Davis. I didn't think you saw a whole lot of Brad Davis. In fact, you saw more of maybe Corey Ashe coming forward. That's because we concentrated on Brad. That was really a responsibility of Zach and Roger, and I thought they did a good job there." (You had a chat with Brad Davis on the sideline at one point. What did you talk about?) "On the second one, he said he didn't hit Flaco. But the other one, Burch definitely has a little bit of a welt on his head from that one. So you know…" (On Brad Evans' injury…) "He should be all right. He felt his hamstring a little bit, so he wanted to get off the field before he would make it worse. I thought today early in the game he made a lot of big runs for us getting into the box and was dangerous for us in that way and that might have been a little too much today." (On starting Patrick Ianni over Jeff Parke for the second straight game…) "Again, sometimes you don't want to change a winning team. We won last week 3-1, defensively we did all right. It's Patrick's old team, so you're always a little more motivated, a little more geared up to play your old team. He knows Ching; he's trained against him on a daily basis for a lot of years. So we felt that familiarity and based upon the fact that we got a good result last week, we didn't want to change the middle pair." (On if Jeff Parke is healthy…) "Parke is healthy, ready to go." (On earning a shutout victory…) "You always want to get shutouts. We talk about it. We talk about making sure we don't allow anything, because we always feel confident that we're going to be able to score a goal. But it's not like, 'shutout-or-bust'. It's not that kind of an attitude." (On the offensive rhythm without Rosales…) "I thought it was a little disjointed at times. I thought at times we had some good combinations. I thought Burch did a very good job in the first half of playing some balls down the line. We were trying to get behind Hainault and I thought we did that well in the first half — there were a lot of good balls that he played. But at times it was a little bit disjointed. Part of that is also the way Houston plays and the pressure they put on you. They're always niggling at you; they're always trying to get a piece of the ball." (Are you concerned that Fredy Montero doesn't have an assist or a goal?) "No. It'll come. He's always been a streaky guy, and his streak and his time will come." (On the continuity between the goalkeeper and the defense…) "Obviously any time you get a shutout, it's everybody. It's David Estrada chasing back at times; it's Roger pinching in. Flaco I thought helped out as well defensively and did a good job of making sure Hainault didn't get forward. You look at it now and if you include the Santos game we've played seven different guys in the back, but I feel confident in all of those guys and their defending. Michael knows them and he's played behind them, so it doesn't make that much of a difference as to who's playing. I think they have a good understanding of each other." (On if he will stick with Roger Levesque in the starting lineup at midfielder…) "We'll see. We've got to see how guys recover from injuries right now, where we're at, how the matchups look for us as we play San Jose. We'll take a look when they play, as well, and we'll come to a decision." (How long will Rosales be out?) "Don't know. He's already started jogging at this point, so it's a matter of we see how he does day-to-day. He did some good work yesterday, did a little bit today and we'll see." DAVID ESTRADA, Sounders FC forward (Did you know what was going on with the scoring of your goal?) "I was a little bit bummed when I came in at halftime and I heard it was an own goal. Thankfully they reviewed it and they gave it me. I'll take it." (In your celebration, were you unsure?) "Everything that I hit is going in. (laughs) Luck, but I work so hard for it. Thankfully it went in." (Did you think it was on target?) "When I hit it, I thought it was on target. Then I saw the replay and thennnnn … it was questionable. (laughs) But they gave it to me." (How's your confidence after four goals in two games?) "It's the same — just keep myself grounded, keep working. I think I do some things when I don't have the ball that the coaches really like, and that is what's going to keep me on the field. And I'm more than willing to do that." (Do you ever wonder why you didn't make this move sooner?) "No. I don't know, but I'm just thankful to be in this position today and I'm going to keep doing what I'm doing." (What'd you think about the team's defensive performance?) "Absolutely. Will Bruin. Brian Ching. They're a very good pairing and I think (the defense) did a very good job. Michael Gspurning came up with a few good saves. It's a team effort tonight." BRAD EVANS, Sounders FC midfielder (On the hamstring…) "I felt it a little bit on the ball that Burch played through in the second half and then I played the next five minutes on it. I just figured there's (30) minutes left in the game, better safe than sorry." (What are you thinking when you step up to take the PK?) "It's just confidence and stepping up. Pick your spot and take it. If the keeper saves it, it should be a good save. Sometimes you have to mix it up and (having) a little confidence there. … It's a chance to go 2-0 up and create a gap for us going into halftime. It's just the same as last time." (On both of the goals coming from set pieces…) "That's what we work on after almost every practice is set pieces. Even though we're playing against a extremely good team defensively, both of our goals came off set pieces really. The first one was a clearance, header out, just a good challenge and then David gets a fortunate bounce on that shot. The next one is a PK on the corner kick. You don't think going into this game you're going to get two off of set pieces, but that's why we practice them. We could have gone 3-0 up and created a good gap, but things happen, and at least we converted two." (On responding to a new-look right side…) "It becomes a different game when those two guys (Rosales and Johansson) are out. You kind of looking at that throughout the week. We had a week to prepare with Roger on the right and Zach coming in two days ago, so you know what you're going to get every time from those two guys — it's going to be hard, solid work. Is it as creative? No, it's not. Are the crosses coming in? No. But defensively it helps out a lot, especially playing against a team with Brad Davis who last year was one of the best players in the league and this year he'll do the same again. He was not a non-factor tonight, but the guys hit very well defensively against him." MICHAEL GSPURNING, Sounders FC goalkeeper (On the game…) "The game was tough. We knew we had to fight today. It was a very decent game. They (Houston) showed today that they are a good team and they were not for nothing in the final last season. We knew this before, we took the fight, and we won. It's great. Maybe we can play better soccer, but on the fighting and defense-wise, (it) was great stuff." (On defending Houston's corner kicks…) "These balls are always tough but we did our job. [Goalkeeping coach Tom Dutra] told me the whole week that those balls are coming because they have amazing corner kicks and free kicks, so I was prepared. I was prepared for it and I'm happy I've done the job." (Answer joined in progress…) "That's what we practiced all week. It was good preparation from the coaches. I knew that they were good at set pieces and I had to come out. You're preparing all week for this game and these 90 minutes, if you then bring the performance into the 90 minutes, it's perfect. It shows all the hard work is for something good, and not for nothing." (On being comfortable with a changing defense…) "Absolutely. We're in a good position with a team with 25-26 players and everybody can play. This is great. You need a team like this to come through the playoffs and have success all season long. You need every player on the squad." (How nice was it to get a second goal right after the first?) "It's always good and sometimes you think that, but to be honest, as a 'keeper you're always in the situation that for you the game is 0-0. You have to be focused on every ball, so even if you're leading 4-0 or 5-0 you're into the game. You don't know what will happen if you have a 2-0 lead. … It's good and it's great, but always keep going until the last minute." DOMINIC KINNEAR, Dynamo head coach (On taking away any positives from the match tonight…) "We played pretty good tonight. We had about a 10-minute spell there in the first half where we kind of lost our way up to a little bit of luck and then the penalty- I've got to take a look at it again, it's hard to tell. You call a penalty in a corner… I think every corner you can call a penalty. It's just the way it went. We lost our way for a little bit, but all-in-all I thought it was a good, spirited performance by us. We got that last little area where we weren't putting in the killer ball and that's the way the game went." (On how Geoff Cameron was at halftime after an unfortunate first half…) "He was fine. I said to the guys in here to just get those 10 minutes out of the way, if we can get a goal that brings our way up and puts some pressure on them. We were fine at halftime." (On earning six points out of a possible nine on their current road trip…) "That's good. I think when you take a step back, it is. But you look at tonight and you see we've lost our first game of the year, albeit to a good team. But yeah, six out of nine, winning your first two out of three — it could be a lot worse." (On being the only Eastern Conference team to have won out west this year…) "That doesn't matter. We're just trying to beat whoever we play. It doesn't matter if it's East or West." (On if he is feeling an extra buzz about soccer with a new stadium in Houston…) "We're still a little bit away. I think once we get to the closing week and we get to train inside the stadium… I think the whole build up to the game on May 12 there will be a great buzz about the place I think. We've been there for six years now, I think we're pretty well respected as far as a professional sports franchise, but we've always been renting and now we have our own place. I think it definitely cements us as a franchise that's going to stay and build in the community. I'm thrilled it's going to happen. I'm not too excited now because there are still four games to go before we do get that May 12 game. But you talk to me on May 10 or May 11 I'll have butterflies and for many good reasons." GEOFF CAMERON, Dynamo defender (On the result…) "I thought we played pretty well. We came out pretty sharp in the first half. We had opportunities. There were seven minutes that were bad. I don't think it was a PK… the deflection… it didn't go our way, but I thought we played pretty well. We did some good things and I think we've got to hold our heads up high. Deflections are part of the game. We should have had a PK toward the end — same call — unfortunate, but you've got to take the good out of this game and we've got a couple weekends off to be focused for Chicago." (On what some of the good things he saw were…) "We switched the fields, we had play, one, two-touch, in and out – outside mid to center mid to forwards holding up the ball, laying off. We did some really good things. We didn't finish the opportunities. But that's something to be proud of, that we had some of our best soccer this year. Just watching from the back we played them off the clock for 15-20 minutes at a time, but you get those two opportunities in those seven minutes that we weren't really together – the deflection and the PK kind of bites you in the butt." (On the penalty kick…) "I don't think it was a penalty. He's going for the ball, gave him a nudge like any other guy would do and what not. I don't want to get myself in trouble, but I don't think it was a PK. He got the ball, did just enough to get him off-balanced a little bit. It's just one of those things." * * * SOUNDERS FC 2, HOUSTON DYNAMO 0 Scoring summary: SEA — David Estrada (un) 23′ SEA — Brad Evans (pk) 27′ Seattle Sounders FC: Michael Gspurning, Zach Scott, Patrick Ianni, Jhon Kennedy Hurtado, Marc Burch, Roger Levesque (Leo Gonzalez 81′), Brad Evans (Servando Carrasco 61′), Osvaldo Alonso, Alvaro Fernandez, Fredy Montero (Christian Sivebaek 90′), David Estrada.

A lot can be learned in one year and that is certainly true with road trips and other forms of adventure. We had a great time in 2007, saw plenty of random places, had some first time experiences, but ultimately wanted more for our next trip. In 2008 we follow through by researching and planning stops at more places, adding destinations along the way, and driving even further than before. More notes were recorded, more observations made, and more photos were taken to remember the experience a little better that the year before.
Since the last trip, we'd all moved in together and were officially roommates in a house in the suburbs of our college campus. Living together made planning the trip easier and definitely created a new dynamic. Before, Kevin and I had only seen Matt occasionally and now we all shared a house together every day. We had a countdown in our kitchen, had purchased stuff to take with us, and spent evenings reminiscing about 2007 in preparation for the next big adventure.
GRAND RAPIDS (home) to SEATTLE
The first leg of the trip was going to be a long one. We wanted to get out west as soon as possible and we knew it would require about 32-36 hours in the car. We left on a Thursday afternoon and arrived in Issaquah, Washington on Friday very late, probably technically Saturday the first of March. We didn't have any concerts or stops planned between Michigan and Washington, except to see if Mt. Rushmore would be open whenever we sailed through which happened to be 4am when it was definitely closed.
It was sunny and cold in Michigan, with our giant car packed and the mixed CDs stashed, we were on the road headed south towards Chicago. We made it through the Greater Chicago area, onward to Iowa in the afternoon. This year was no different than last year with the winter storms rolling through the plains days before and the roads being residually icy. We saw more semi trucks and cars still in the ditch this year but made it through unscathed. Day quickly turned to night and we were rolling with as few stops as possible.
We entered South Dakota in the early morning which meant no Mt. Rushmore but we did see every star in the sky as we cruised at 84 MPH down I-90. I made a specific note about the speed we set and about how surprised I was at the night sky throughout South Dakota. One more thing thing to note about the sparseness South Dakota -- we almost ran out of gas and it was hilarious and made our hearts race. We were driving along, through the darkness and the gas light came on. We pulled into one place, which appeared to be open or at least have their pumps on, and none of that was true so we had to get back on the highway and keep looking. We were searching on our Microsoft Streets and Trips the best we could, but not finding much anywhere ahead and so we just set the cruise down to a more conservative speed and kept our eyes open. The outlook was grim and we had accepted our fate of running out of gas in the middle of nowhere when out of the darkness there was a shining light of angelic proportions (not really, but you get the point) and we exited the freeway to open gas pumps! It's funny how things work like this, stay tuned for a less fortunate story from the road trip of 2009.
We drove through the northeast corner of Wyoming and the pink sunrise hit the snow dusted hills in a magical way. A breakfast and Walmart stop was made in Gillette, and we marveled at the decoration on the side of the building being a scene with bison. We thought it classed the place up a bit. Moving right along, we were in Montana before we knew it. The beauty of Montana, when we started to see the mountains, was remarkable and the pictures we had did it no justice. Upward and onwards into the narrow bit of northern Idaho we went and were amazed at the scenic drive through Coeur d'Alene. Spokane, which was noted as one of the cleanest places we stopped, was fun to briefly explore. We had to keep pushing through, as this was the point in the trip when we started to get tired of the car and each other.
Tensions were high, attitudes were flared, but we kept going as it got dark and we hit the Cascade Mountain range. The extra large, rear wheel drive Mercury Grand Marquis was not handling well when we hit slushy weather at Snoqualmie Pass. It didn't get any easier moving forward nor did the weather let up, but Kevin was driving like a champ. He steered us through it all and landed us down in Issaquah without dying! We checked into a Motel 6, slept it off, and started March with a better outlook and better attitudes.
Seattle was a dream and I can remember meandering through the city like it was yesterday. I can see the buildings, the streets, the marketplace, everything. The weather was cloudy thus making it the stereotypical day in Seattle for our first visit. We drove through the tall buildings looking around and trying to find a place to park. We parked at Pike Place Market and explored that area. The outside smelled like fish and sea air while the inside was warm and cozy. We got coffee and a mug from the first Starbucks store and then made our way around walking to the Space Needle and seeing Komo Plaza among other things I can't remember or name from the photos. This area of Seattle is full of museums, points of interest, and sights to see. After making our way back to the car, we drove past Safeco Field and then hit the freeway.
We took I-5 down towards Olympia and picked up US-101 towards the coast. I noted in our book that gas was expensive on the west coast, and about $3.44/gallon in Olympia. As we drove through Washington, we got our first glimpse at the sun and also the greenery that is the Pacific Northwest. Our first major stop after Seattle was a the Willapa National Wildlife Refuge. It's safe to say this was our first National Wildlife Refuge and it was a great way to start off the scenic tour that was the Pacific Coast. Highway 101 through the wildlife refuge was beautiful and curvy and we stopped so many times to get photos. Leaving the refuge, the highway went down through a few more towns and a tunnel (exciting) before the Megler-Astoria Bridge into Oregon. The bridge is a spectacular sight - green and mighty and spanning between the two states. We were officially in Oregon and I was officially in love with the Pacific Northwest.
Starting from Astoria and going down the coast, we were in continuous amazement at every mile. Our first big stop was at Arcadia Beach. It was the late afternoon and it was our only Oregon stop for the day, since starting in Seattle. We spent an hour on the beach taking photos and soaking up the views. It was a sun drenched afternoon but the temperature was cool and the wind strong, which made the beach even better. My kind of beach day does not involve baking in the sun or having to take my shirt off, so the Oregon Coast has my vote for beach day any day.
We drove a bit further down the coast and decided to stay in the Econo Lodge in Newport, Oregon. It was halfway through the state and a good starting point for the next morning as we headed into California.
I still remember the morning leaving Newport along the coast - dewy, moist, foggy, sunny, and magical. The smell was fresh and the breeze a bit chilly as we headed south with the windows open. From this day forward I became OBSESSED with Oregon, the Pacific Northwest, the Pacific Coast, and everything related to those things. From Newport, the magic of the Oregon Coast continued with our next stop at Devil's Churn. Devil's Churn has been a highlight of the Oregon Coastline that I tell everyone about. It's an inlet, very narrow, into a cliff where the sea crashes in and sprays. On this trip, it was easily one of the coolest things we saw. We spent a good chunk of time at Devil's Churn before continuing south towards California.
As we crossed the border into California, we saw a liquor store called All Star Liquors. We were in need of some libations for our hotel later, so we decided to stop in to see what they had. We were astonished to see the prices the lowest we'd ever seen, and we stocked up. I only include this tidbit of information as it is important to know we stocked up at later hotel stays when said liquor is consumed. We stopped at a few places, that I can't quite pinpoint, and then landed at the Redwoods. This was our first National Park on the trip and we were awestruck. We went to the Big Tree wayside, walked a little on a hiking trail and drove the Newton B. Drury scenic drive in full. The size of these trees was beyond comprehension and our necks were sore from constantly looking up. Spending the day along the coast and in the trees left us ready to relax so we spent the night at a Best Western in Eureka, California. This hotel was an upgrade for us from our usual Motel 6 or similar style property and we took full advantage of every hotel amenity. This place had an indoor/outdoor pool, a hot tub, a sauna, the most comfortable beds, and free breakfast. I remember this hotel specifically for the pool, though, because we thought it was so cool that we could swim outside, under a half wall of glass. This trip just kept getting better and better and we were on cloud nine by this point.
We departed the next morning with San Francisco as the destination. We took Highway 101 South and made our way through the Humboldt redwoods and even drove through the Chandelier Tree in Leggett. Instead of continuing down 101, we opted for California 1 down the coast. On this route we curved through coastal trees, encountered free range "happy cows" along the road, and experienced the tourism of small coastal towns. CA-1 was taking forever, due to the little towns, so we took a road through the mountains, through Boonville, and back to 101/I-5. The Golden Gate Bridge Recreation Area was our next stop. We walked around the fort, took photos of the city and bridge, and just enjoyed the fact that it was a sunny afternoon in the highlands. From the highlands we descended into the city to explore before having to go find a hotel for the night. We ended up in the Business District for a couple of hours until making our way back to the car. San Francisco was a lot like Seattle, large and overwhelming but beautiful and different for us small city people.
We found the freeway out of town, into Silicon Valley, and decided to find somewhere to eat first. We went to a Chili's. Kevin ordered a Labatt Blue (a popular Canadian beer we got in Michigan all the time) and the lady took the order with Matt and I's and hurried off. She came back with our beers, and asked Kevin "what's in a Labatt Blue, our bartender has never heard of it!" We looked puzzled, laughed, and explained it was a kind of beer. Apparently, California doesn't get Labatt Blue, or didn't at the time of this trip. It was our first taste of regional differences and it was just notably funny for us. We ate our food and moved along to King City to spend the night in a Motel 6 and break open that liquor we purchased. We drank, we were merry, and we played quarter bounce on a nightstand - oh to be young. I think we went to bed, after wandering to a gas station for snacks, the details of the night are fuzzy at this point. Death Valley and Vegas were on the agenda as our next big stops, but we had to get there first.
We woke up in King City and headed south a bit more and then east towards Bakersfield. We were trying to get closer to Death Valley, but didn't have a real plan for that other than just driving through. It took all day to get to Bakersfield and through the Kern River Valley to Ridgecrest, so we'd be positioned for a quick morning drive to spend the next day in Death Valley. The Kern River Valley was a real treat and we got a taste of the Giant Sequoias famous in those parts. The drive along the Kern River was winding and sunny and was a welcomed surprise after the almond fields and brown landscape around Bakersfield. Ridgecrest was back to brown, but we spent our time at the bowling alley and in our hotel room enjoying more libations.
We woke up and got to Death Valley National Park in the late morning. It was cool and breezy, though very sunny. We entered the park at Panamint Springs and drove to Stovepipe Wells and then down to Badwater Basin. I'm going to preface this next part by saying that I personally had no idea the desert could be in bloom or that it was an event treasured by many. Flowers started to appear the closer we got to Badwater Basin and eventually it was a sea of yellow. The desert was experiencing a major bloom and we just happened upon it at the right time. We saw the lowest point in North America and then started our journey out of the park and on to Las Vegas. We exited and drove through a town called Pahrump, NV and had to laugh because we're children inside. After a long day of driving, exploring, and desert surprises we checked in to the Mirage in Sin City.
We decided to stay at the Mirage hotel because of my suggestion. My grandparents used to stay there for conferences and I'd always get stationary from them so it was a familiar place and the price for a room wasn't too bad either. The room had strip views, was on a high floor, and had two beds so we were all set. Never had we ever been to a party like Las Vegas. The casinos were one thing, we had casinos in Michigan, but the ability to publicly drink and walk around was mind blowing. The "literature" and "trading cards" that were being handed out were obscene and amazing and the whole energy was overwhelming in a good way. We went to Paris and got souvenir Eiffel Towers filled with daiquiri and margarita and wandered up and down the strip. We swam in the Mirage pool the next morning before departing for the Hoover Dam, and I remember it being brisk and refreshing and cooler than we anticipated. The Hoover Dam was impressive, and we got to see one of the turbines out for repair which was rare. At this point in time, they were just starting the new bypass bridge and it was neat to see the construction. We moved along with Flagstaff as our next stop.
The sun was setting behind us, the air was growing cooler as we moved forward, and we were almost to Flagstaff when we were pulled over. Reading back to the previous post, I failed to mention that while in Texas were pulled over for doing 78 in a 70 and were issued a written warning. It was funny, but we slowed down. This time, we were going about 72 in a 70 and were pulled over on I-40 just a few exits before Flagstaff - when the elevation really climbed and the trees were plentiful. We did all the right things: had our hands visible, Matt had his license ready, and we had our rental paperwork. The officer took Matt's license and started the routine and asked Matt to step out of the car and answer questions at the patrol vehicle. The conversation started off normally with the usual "do you know why I pulled you over?" and "where are you headed?" questions. We were told going 2-3 mph over the speed limit was dangerous, as there were deer in the area. Then, it got weird. The officer asked if were on drugs or had any drugs in the car, to which we replied no. He asked why we had the strong scent of a pine air freshener in the car and we had to explain that three guys on a cross country tour really can stink up the place. The officer kept pressing about the drugs and if the air freshener was a cover up for the drugs we were smoking. The only drugs we had were my prescription and some alcohol, which were both in the trunk, so we started to just feel very uncomfortable. He finally let us go when we didn't change a word we said. We were issued a warning for going over the speed limit (by 2 mph) and sent on our way.
We opted for another Best Western as we felt we deserved it after a couple of Motel 6 stays and that run in with the law. We wandered over to The Museum Club, a log cabin looking bar, and bought three drinks at a time, as it was easier that way. We proceeded to be asked to leave unless we bought tickets to see the rapper Afroman, so we bought tickets and decided stay. We knew his stuff, thought it would be fun, and got in on that action. We kept drinking, got some food from the food truck/whatever outside, and waited for the show. His opening act came out, we weren't familiar so we kept waiting with a few more drinks in hand. By the time Afroman came on stage, we were in no mood to stay and needed to leave. We heard one or two of his songs and snuck out. Once back at the hotel, we cleaned up and prepared to battle it out with more booze and drinking games. It was a long night and there were many arguments of which whiskey was better between Matt and Kevin. The next day was rough, and I was the only one fit enough to drive in the morning. I made many stops throughout Arizona and New Mexico so the guys could take a break and regain their senses. It was starting to look like it would be a long drive home. I specifically remember getting McDonald's at some point between Flagstaff and Amarillo, but I couldn't tell you where that was.
Our main goal was to drive through until we got home, with a stop in St. Louis for the Gateway Arch and Budweiser Brewing. We basically took I-40 from Flagstaff all the way through to Oklahoma and then it got weird because we were tired and we wanted to also include Arkansas in our state count so we went out of the way to drive through the northwest corner. The only thing I truly remember about this portion of the night was finding a retro looking Denny's in the middle of nowhere and eating there, or maybe not eating there? I have no idea. We made it to St. Louis by daybreak and visited the brewery and drove by the arch, but did not go up. We ate an Applebee's just over the river into Illinois and then booked it home. We were tired, burned out, and ready to off the road at this point.
This trip was planned to the max, with freedom in between the main points which is how I like to travel. We took hundreds, if not thousands, of pictures which was far more than the year prior. Our notes were not great, but they were existent which was miles ahead of the original tour. The feeling of freedom was still there, but it was not exactly like the first trip. We had more booze, more hotel stays, and more overall adventure, but none of it felt quite like the first time. I realized this trip could not recreate the first one, but it sure did build on it and introduced me to National Parks and the Pacific Northwest.
If you look at overall adventure, this trip had it all. We encountered urban areas, scenic beauty, the ocean, the desert, the high desert, and the plains. We spent a lot of time driving, and maybe too much time together in the car because of it. This trip had a lot of tension in the beginning, but since we were stuck together for ten days we worked it out and got over ourselves. We learned to love every minute and we tried to compromise to meet everyone's expectations. I think this trip helped me learn a lot about what I wanted out of a road trip and if you come back next week you'll see a lot of that knowledge was applied to 2009.
Though this trip was more purposeful, we still didn't take enough notes or photos to recall everything. Not recalling everything isn't always a bad thing, but it is nice to have some points of reference beyond just the memories.

I remember spending my revision time making multiple plans to avoid getting down to the nitty gritty of actually learning! I remember trying to revise and getting to the end of a page in the text book only to find that I couldn't remember a word that I had read. I remember yawning lots and feeling like all I wanted was an afternoon nap rather than more reading. I remember waiting outside the exam room and checking facts and figures with friends only to be thrown into sheer panic when they had revised different answers to me. I also remember sitting in my worst A level exam and feeling unable to concentrate, my thoughts turning to anything but American Politics! We are fast drawing in on the time of year where exams are dominating thought and revision fills every spare minute. Exams really can seem like a living nightmare.
Anxiety can cause problems with sleep, digestion, our immune systems and can certainly interfere with concentration, the last thing you need when you have an exam coming up.
Mindfulness is the perfect solution. Firstly we can learn to relax and when we are relaxed we are much clearer in our thinking. By learning to be less distracted and by reducing the amount of mental chatter going on in our brain we can reach our optimum level of focus which allows us to learn more effectively. There are also great brain training exercises which allow us to train our brains to focus better and for longer.
So if you are in an exam tiz try this….
1) Move away from the books/computer
2) Sit on a chair with your feet flat on the floor, hands on your thighs, back upright, relaxed but focused.
3) Set the timer on your phone – try 5 minutes to start with.
4) Close your eyes and notice your breath entering and leaving your body.
5) Count your breaths up to 10. 1 for the in breath, 2 for the out breath and so on.
6) When you get to 10 go back to 1 and start again.
7) Each time your mind wanders bring it back to the breath and start to count again.
8) Never tell yourself off for your mind wandering – this is the whole point of the exercise – bringing your attention back.
9) When the timer goes off sit and appreciate how you feel and then decide what the next thing you are going to do is.
10) Staying in that calm state of mind move into your next activity and enjoy your renewed focus.
Repeat often!
Doing this exercise once will help you to relax and focus, doing it every day for a week will mean that you can really notice the difference in the way you are working, doing it every day for 8 weeks would mean that you could see the difference on an MRI. Amazing!
Do the exercise in bed when it is time to sleep and you will have drifted off before you know it. If you wake in the night with exam panic then try it then and you will have drifted off again in no time.
Good Luck!

Acupressure is a great alternative for people who would like to explore traditional Chinese medicine but have a fear of needles.
In this modality an educated acupuncturist will be able to diagnose according to traditional Chinese theory, and using their finger pressure, stimulate points along pathways of energy to help heal the body.
For a quick fix, there are also a few overall tonifying points on the body that you or a friend can stimulate in order to help alleviate common aches and ailments. In this series I will give you a common acupressure point, and a brief overview, so that you or a partner can give yourself a little DIY at-home acupressure when needed!

This acu-point is located at the midpoint of the second metacarpal bone, between the thumb and pointer finger. Some describe it as being at the highest point of the thenar muscle, others place it closer to the second metacarpal bone. I feel around for a sensitive spot in this general area.
This point is well known for alleviating headaches! It is located on the Large Intestine pathway, so it can also be good for abdominal pain related to digestive issues. It can help relieve stress and lower blood pressure. The large intestine pathway winds up to the face, so this point is also a good distal point to help with pain issues related to the jaw and face.
Once you find the point, you can stimulate it lightly with pressure from your finger. Some people believe it is best to use your middle finger, or pointer finger. Pressure does not have to be hard to stimulate the point. This can be done as a constant pressure or a pulsating pressure for a few minutes throughout the day.
This point SHOULD NOT be used if you are pregnant or suspect you could be pregnant, as it can stimulate uterine contractions.

Rescue workers remove charred body of victim from burnt-out wreckage of bus.
Fourteen people were killed and some 50 wounded when a car bomb containing about 100 kilograms of explosives was detonated next to a No. 841 Egged bus from Kiryat Shmona to Tel-Aviv, while traveling along Wadi Ara on Route No. 65 towards Hadera. The bus had pulled over at a bus stop when the suicide bomber, from Jenin, driving a jeep, approached from behind and exploded.
The explosion ignited the fuel tank, and in the resulting blaze, the bus was completely gutted, as were two nearby cars. The intensity of the flames at first prevented police and rescue workers from approaching the bus. It took an hour to bring the fire under control and the vehicle was reduced to to a blackened skeleton. Ammunition carried by soldiers riding the bus blew up in a chain of explosions, adding to the hazards for victims and rescue workers.
The military wing of Islamic Jihad, the Al-Quds Brigades, claimed responsibility for the blast, saying that it was carried out by Ashraf al-Asama, 18, and Mohammed al-Hasnin, 19, both from Jenin.
The attack was reminiscent of another bombing organized by leading Islamic Jihad terrorist Iyad Sawalha, who currently heads Israel's list of wanted men: the attack at the Megiddo Junction on June 5, in which 17 civilians and soldiers were killed when a booby-trapped car drove up to an Egged bus and exploded.
The victims:
– Osnat Abramov, 16, of Holon
– Indelou Ashati, 54, of Hadera
– St.-Sgt. Liat Ben-Ami, 20, of Haifa
– Ofra Burger, 56, of Hod Hasharon

Reactions of world leaders:
UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan: (Oct 21, 2002)
"The Secretary-General is appalled by the terrorist car bomb attack in northern Israel earlier today in which at least 14 persons were killed and many others injured. He reiterates his condemnation of attacks against civilians in the strongest possible terms and conveys his heartfelt condolences to the families of the victims and the Government of Israel. The Secretary-General once again calls on all Palestinian groups to stop immediately all such acts of violence."
US President George Bush: (Oct 21, 2002)
"The President condemns the most recent attack in Israel. It's another reminder of how it's so important for peace to be pursued and for terror to be stopped."
(Communicated by White House spokesman Ari Fleischer)
US Middle East envoy William Burns: (Damascus, Oct 22, 2002)
"Yesterday's terrorist attack against a civilian bus in northern Israel claimed by a Palestinian group with offices here in Damascus was a reprehensible act. It does severe damage to Palestinian interests and aspirations, it cannot be tolerated by anyone who genuinely is interested in peace. If we are to succeed in ending occupation, building two states and resuming progress toward comprehensive peace it is critically important to stop the violence that has done so much to undermine legitimate Palestinian aspirations. There has been far too much suffering and bloodshed on both sides, and both sides have an obligation to make it stop."
EU High Representative for CSFP Javier Solana: (Oct 21, 2002)
"I have just conveyed to the Israeli Foreign Minister, Simon Peres, my personal distress and my strongest condemnation, which is total and unreserved, of the terrorist attack that killed and injured many people in the North of Israel. I also wish to express my personal grief to the families of the victims.
Difficult as it might seem, at times such as these, what Israelis and Palestinians need more than ever is less blood, and more commitment to reestablish a fruitful cooperation that should lead to dialogue and peace."
Presidency of the European Union: (Oct 21, 2002)
"The Presidency of the European Union strongly condemns this afternoon's suicide attack on a bus killing at least 14 innocent Israeli civilians and injuring more than 50 in the heart of Israel. The Islamic Jihad has claimed responsibility for this abhorrent act…
The Presidency urges both sides to do their utmost to bring an end to all acts of terror and violence that serve to fuel hatred and undermine attempts by the parties and the international community to bring about reconciliation and hope for a peaceful solution to the conflict.
We appeal to the Palestinian Authority to do everything within its power to prevent terrorist attacks and to bring those responsible to justice."

Statement issued by the Foreign Ministry of France: (Oct 21, 2002)
"La France condamne avec la plus grande fermeté l'attentat-suicide qui vient de se produire à Pardès Hanna, dans le nord d'Israël, et qui a fait de très nombreuses victimes.
Nous présentons nos sincères condoléances à leurs familles.
Les actes de ce type sont inacceptables et doivent cesser. Leurs auteurs doivent être poursuivis et traduits en justice. Encore une fois, les groupes armés palestiniens doivent comprendre qu'ils n'obtiendront rien par la violence.
Aujourd'hui, les parties doivent tout mettre en oeuvre pour mettre un terme à cette violence et rétablir une perspective politique crédible, seule à même de faire taire les armes."

In a nuclear whistleblower retaliation case, the DOL Administrative Review Board held that recording workplace conversations to gather evidence of safety violations is protected whistleblowing under the whistleblower protection provision of the ERA.
The whistleblower in Franchini v. Argonne National Laboratory recorded workplace conversations evidencing potential radiation contamination and workplace safety issues at the Argonne National Laboratory, a multidisciplinary science and engineering research center owned by the Department of Energy and operated by UChicago Argonne, LLC. In the course of raising his concerns internally at Argonne and to the Department of Energy, Franchini made about 50 recordings of discussions with his supervisors and co-workers. Franchini made all but three of those recordings without his co-workers' knowledge or consent. In addition, Franchini had taken multiple digital photographs to document his safety concerns. The ARB held that gathering evidence by recording workplace conversations can be protected whistleblowing under the ERA and relied in part on the following decisions:
Melendez v. Exxon Chem. Am., ARB No. 96-051, ALJ No. 1993-ERA-006, slip op. at 18 (ARB July 14, 2000) ("the gathering of evidence in support of a whistleblower complaint, including the gathering of evidence by means of tape recording, is a type of activity that has been held to be covered by the employee protection provisions [of the ERA]"); Mosbaugh v. Georgia Power Co., 1991-ERA-001 (Sec'y Nov. 20, 1995) (tape recording to gather evidence in support of a nuclear safety complaint to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission protected under the ERA). Cf., Hoffman v. NetJets Aviation, Inc., ARB No. 09-021, ALJ No. 2007-AIR-007 (ARB Mar. 24, 2001) (distinguishing cases such as Mosbaugh, where the complainant engages in "selective recordings" designed to gather evidence of safety violations or other violations under the whistleblower statutes, from cases in which a complainant engages in indiscriminate and excessive recording of unrelated topics, such as a company's business strategy and finances, which the ARB held would create an independent legal basis for disciplinary action).
The ARB's decision in Franchini will be helpful to whistleblowers, and indeed admissions obtained from recorded conversations can be critical evidence in whistleblower cases. But the ARB's decision should not be construed as a blanket endorsement of recording workplace conversations and it is important to assess the potential risks stemming from recording conversations.
Before gathering evidence to support a whistleblower reward or whistleblower retaliation claim, an employee should consult with counsel to ensure that the employee is not gathering evidence in a manner that is unlawful or that could give the employer a valid basis to terminate the employee. For example, some states prohibit recordings unless all parties to a conversation consent to being recorded. The Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press has issued a helpful state-by-state guide to taping phone calls and in-person conversations, which is available here. It is also important to avoid taking actions that give rise to an after-acquired evidence defense, which may limit a whistleblower's remedies if the employer uncovers evidence that independently justifies the termination, even if the initial termination decision was retaliatory.

Chinatown – poised for a recovery?
Readers of this blog know where I come down on redevelopment – strongly on the side of increasing supply, and pretty strongly against preservation. Not because I'm a real estate agent and am greedy about having more condos to sell; in fact, the opposite.
Increasing the supply of housing benefits everyone. It can, actually, LOWER the cost of housing, obviously. Of course, that would benefit me, too.
Chinatown is a very dense, small neighborhood. It's bordered by highways and high buildings. Some of it is in dire need of rehabilitation.
Unfortunately, because of the state of development in the city, builders end up constructing offensively big projects. This is what will probably happen in Chinatown.

One lucky rescue dog at the Humane Society of Carroll County will receive the gift of a lifetime later this month: a new paw.
Oprah, a dog whom Humane Society staff estimate to be 7 or 8 years old, was brought to the Humane Society in April as a rescue.
The possible victim of neglect, she was emaciated and had an injured paw that appeared to have been caught at some point in metal wire, causing circulation to be cut off and the leg to be permanently injured, said Charles Brown, Humane Society executive director.
"The first thing we had to do was just get weight on her," Brown said.
As she grew healthier, Oprah's leg began to affect her more and more as she grew hesitant to put weight on it, so Humane Society staff decided to reach out to local prosthetic companies.
Thanks to the efforts of the Humane Society and two area companies, D&J Medical and Maryland Orthotics & Prosthetics, Oprah was sized for a prosthetic Wednesday morning. (In July, D&J acquired Maryland Orthotics & Prosthetics.)
Brown said this will be the first time an animal has received a prosthetic at an institution he was working for, and it is believed to be a first at the Humane Society in Carroll.
The prosthetic will be paid for by D&J and Maryland Orthotics & Prosthetics. Employee time is also being donated to build the prosthetic.
"Sometimes in this line of work, there's a lot of arm twisting, there's a lot of begging," Brown said. But that didn't happen in this case, he said.
"They jumped at it," he said. "They couldn't have been here faster."
John Beeler, a prosthetist from D&J, said he was interested in the project as soon as he found out about it from his manager.
"We spend all day doing prosthetics with humans," he said. "Of course, we're going to jump on this."
In fact, Beeler said, he has already spoken to his family about the idea of adopting Oprah when she becomes eligible.
In the meantime, he is working with fellow prosthetists Mark Talley and Jeremy Halteman to craft Oprah a prosthetic that will let her enjoy walking and playing the same as any other dog.
But that's no small task for a group that works almost exclusively with humans.
On Wednesday, veterinarian Alana Velázquez and Humane Society Director of Animal Care Michelle Fidler assisted as the group worked to create a mold of Oprah's rear right leg. With Fidler petting Oprah's head to keep her relaxed, Talley, Halteman and Beeler took measurements and notes for design. The prosthetics team will now build a brace with a custom-fabricated strut designed specifically for Oprah's needs.
For Beeler and Talley, it's the first time in several years either has worked on a prosthetic for an animal. For Halteman, it's the first time.
"[It] presents a little bit of a challenge," Beeler said. "A fun challenge."
But it helps to have a good patient, he added.
"Honestly, we couldn't ask for her to be better," he said.
If everything goes according to plan, Oprah will have her new paw in about two weeks, they said.
"We got into this business to help people or animals or whatever," Talley said. "We're just here to help."

If Dion Waiters put the biggest priority on being close to home, he'd be a Knick and Tim Hardaway Jr. would be elsewhere. The Knicks chased Waiters, who scored 10 points on 3-of-10 shooting Wednesday, as an unrestricted free agent, but the shooting guard from Philly stuck with Miami, where he excelled last season.
Waiters said he had an interview with Knicks president Steve Mills.
"They got to know me. I got to know them. They were talking, they were trying,'' Waiters told The Post. "My agent was talking to them more than I was.''
He had some interest but not enough to leave Florida.
"It was close to home and it's New York, too,'' Waiters said. "It wouldn't have been bad. It's New York, the Garden. I went to Syracuse, man. So it's like cool."
As was reported then, Waiters likely was using the Knicks to drive up Miami's price.
"It was high up there,'' Waiters said of the Knicks' offer. "But I made my decision. Other teams figured that's how it was going to be any way."
Waiters signed a four-year, $52 million package to stay with the Heat. He was averaging 15.6 points entering Wednesday. The Knicks moved on to Hardaway, who scored 12 points Wednesday, with a four-year, $71 million deal — inflated because he was a restricted free agent.

According to the Hollywood Reporter and FUSE, Cee-Lo Green of Goodie Mob and former star of The Voice, landed his very own six episode reality show "The Cee-Lo Life," which is set to document Goodie Mob's reunion.
Reports indicate that the series will follow Cee-Lo and the rest of the Goodie Mob (Big Gipp, T-Mo and Khujo) as they work on their reunion album, "Age Against The Machine."
Michael Wright, head of programming at TBS, said "This new TBS series will give viewers the chance to get to know Cee-Lo Green, who is without a doubt one of the hardest working men in show business. 'The Cee-Lo Life' is certain to be a smart, fun and funny journey packed with a lot of great music."
Goodie Mob formed in 1991 and their debut album "Soul Food" was released in 1995. Three albums later, Cee Lo left the group in 2004 to pursue a solo career. Goodie Mob released "One Monkey Don't Stop No Show" that same year (minus Cee Lo) and had poor reception from the fans with Cee Lo absent and led to Big Gipp leaving the group. The last album in 2005 "Livin Life as Lumberjacks" was released by T-Mo and Khujo under the name The Lumberjacks, which was the original name of the group before the addition of Cee Lo and Big Gipp. Then after years apart, a reunion album "We Sell Drugs Too" was planned for a 2011 release but never happened.

Two members of The University of Queensland community will dive into the 10th Underwater Rugby World Championships in Colombia in July.
Hannah Barrenger and Douglas Stetner have been selected to represent Australia at the world championships.
The two Australian teams – one male and one female – would be making history, as the first to compete in the world cup, said Ms Barrenger, who is studying for a Bachelor of Environmental Management at UQ.
"Underwater rugby is really new in Australia," she said.
Underwater rugby originated in Germany in the 1960s and was designed to keep divers fit during the winter.
Today the three-dimensional, anti-gravity contact sport is played around the world, in countries including Germany, Denmark, Italy, Spain and Colombia.
Players score a goal by placing the ball in a basket at the bottom of the pool, which is defended by a goalie.
Douglas Stetner, who works at the Institute for Molecular Bioscience, said his involvement in UQ's Unidive scuba diving club sparked his interest in underwater rugby.
"When I first came to Australia from Canada in 2002, I became involved in Unidive. Fourteen years on, I am still involved," he said.
"We started out playing underwater hockey, and one of the club members brought along a rugby ball.
"That's how underwater rugby started at UQ."
The Australian team was formed through a national selection process.
Ms Barrenger said she was excited to play alongside a diverse group of athletes in the Underwater Rugby World Championships.
"I like competitive sport, swimming and being in the water, but the best part of it is that the group of people who play are really fun and it's a really fun game," she said.
The team has launched the Swim to Colombia campaign, seeking to raise $60,000 to send the team to the championships.

Not your basic braids!
Braids had a huge moment on the Spring 2017 runways, popping up at countless shows, including Roberto Cavalli, A Detacher, Valentino, and Christian Dior, but it's the embellished braids—plaits adorned with everything from colorful string to faux pearls—that we've spotted on several runways and celebrities that have our total attention this season.
Actress Teyonah Parris, Rita Ora, Actress Shay Mitchell
Shay Mitchell's braided topknot embellished with gold rings caused quite a frenzy at the 2016 Teen Choice Awards (more recently, the PLL beauty hit Coachella with metallic ribbon woven into her fishtail braid), and at a screening for her show, Survivor's Remorse, actress Teyonah Parris was major hair goals with her floral embellished braids. Besides these two, celebrities, fashion designers, and tastemakers including Ariana Grande, Christina Aguilera, John Galliano, and Myesha Polnett are all fans of the look.
Maison Margiela Spring 2017 Couture, Marchesa Fall 2017, Ottolinger Spring 2017
Want to try the trend? Vamping up your French or milkmaid braids, fishtails, or cornrows is super easy and so fun. Simply weave colorful ribbon or string into your hair as you're braiding, or tuck embellished bobby pins or hair clips into the braid once it's done (think faux flowers or pearls, shiny rhinestones, etc). Another option is to wrap hair cuffs around parts of your braid—they're just like ear cuffs and have the same cool effect. If you really want to keep it simple, but still very pretty, tie a piece of tulle or ribbon at the end of your braid like the models at the Schiaparelli Spring 2017 Couture show.
