Roshard Whitehead Gets Four Life Sentences for Sexually Assaulting His Young Nieces
Categories: Broward News
Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office |
Roshard Whitehead, who apparently needs an introduction to the prison barber. |
Whitehead, a 30-year-old former Riviera Beach resident, was sentenced yesterday to four life terms in prison, with two of those sentences making him ineligible for parole.
Starting in January 2004, Whitehead would threaten the young girls with starvation and violence if they didn't comply with his sexual demands or if the girls told anyone what Whitehead was doing to them, according to a police report.
Police say the sexual assaults and molestations would occur when the children's grandmother would have Whitehead baby-sit the girls.
One day, the kids' mother happened to notice the two kids kissing in her apartment and decided to have a talk with them all about improper touching.
That's when the girls came forward to their mother about what had been going on and had them explain what happened in a letter.
The children wrote in the letters that Whitehead made them do "nasty stuff" in bed with them and would also make them watch "nasty movies." One of the girls wrote two letters explaining the events to her mother, with the girl writing that she was sorry 27 times in one of them.
The girls' mother went to the cops by January 2009, and they described the graphic details of the assaults, according to the police report.
Their mother explained a few facts about Whitehead, including the fact that he was arrested for molesting a 3-year-old girl back in 2003 that had since been expunged from his record.
By the time the cops started trying to find Whitehead, he had already told his roommate that he was off to go kill himself.
Instead, Whitehead skipped town and went to Kentucky, where he lived for around eight months, before he made his television debut on America's Most Wanted.
After the show aired, tips came in that Whitehead was living in Lexington, Kentucky, and he was arrested by the U.S. Marshals Service in August 2009.
A jury convicted Whitehead yesterday on two counts of sexual battery on a person under the age of 12 and another two counts of lewd or lascivious molestation.
Whitehead got two life sentences without the possibility of parole for the sexual battery charges that will run consecutively and two life sentences for the other charges that will run concurrently.

The One Hit Wonder kicker is HUGE! Check it out and the new game show format here!
Win an invitation to the exclusive All Girls @ iF3 Recovery Brunch + Weekend Festivities in Montreal hosted by the K2 Ski Alliance!
An eager group of freeski and snowboard girls arrived from all corners of the globe to the huge snow castle set up in Livigno, Italy for the first day of the Suzuki Nine Queens presented by O'Neill. The event has now officially kicked off with the girls testing out the many different obstacles of the il Castello at Mottolino Fun Mountain. Check out the GoPro Course Check edit.
Last night was the first real training at JOI and I to hear PK say that the kicker is the best its ever been was amazing to hear as this is for sure the nr one focus on this event. Lots of triples were thrown and I can't wait to see what comes next from the boys, incredible to see how they stepped it up from yesterdays training session. You do see a big difference in the riders on a kicker like this, the really good ones can use the pop and get super hang time while a few guys seem to have a harder time, but its built for the best to push this sport to the next level so things are just like they should be!

Justification is a forensic term, opposed to condemnation. In regard to its nature, it is the judicial act of God, by which He pardons all the sins of those who believe in Christ, and accounts, accepts, and treats them as righteous in the eye of the law, i.e., as conformed to all its demands. In addition to the pardon of sin, justification declares that all the claims of the law are satisfied in respect of the justified. It is the act of a judge and not of a sovereign. The law is not relaxed or set aside, but is declared to be fulfilled in the strictest sense; and so the person justified is declared to be entitled to all the advantages and rewards arising from perfect obedience to the law (Romans 5:1-10).
It proceeds on the imputing or crediting to the believer by God himself of the perfect righteousness, active and passive, of His Representative and Surety, Jesus Christ (Romans 10:3-9). Justification is not the forgiveness of a man without righteousness, but a declaration that he possesses a righteousness that perfectly and forever satisfies the law, namely, Christ's righteousness (2 Corinthians 5:21; Romans 4:6-8).
The sole condition on which this righteousness is imputed or credited to the believer is faith in or on the Lord Jesus Christ. Faith is called a "condition," not because it possesses any merit, but only because it is the instrument, the only instrument by which the soul appropriates or apprehends Christ and His righteousness (Romans 1:17; 3:25, 26; 4:20, 22; Philippians 3:8-11; Galatians 2:16).
The act of faith which thus secures our justification secures also at the same time our sanctification (q.v.); and thus the doctrine of justification by faith does not lead to licentiousness (Romans 6:2-7). Good works, while not the ground, are the certain consequence of justification (Romans 6:14; 7:6).

- Therefore having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we exult in hope of the glory of God. And not only this, but we also exult in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance; and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope; and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us. For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him. For if while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. (Romans 5:1-10)
- For not knowing about God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own, they did not subject themselves to the righteousness of God. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. For Moses writes that the man who practices the righteousness which is based on law shall live by that righteousness. But the righteousness based on faith speaks thus, "DO NOT SAY IN YOUR HEART, 'WHO WILL ASCEND INTO HEAVEN?' (that is, to bring Christ down), or 'WHO WILL DESCEND INTO THE ABYSS?' (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead)." But what does it say? "THE WORD IS NEAR YOU, IN YOUR MOUTH AND IN YOUR HEART"-- that is, the word of faith which we are preaching, that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved; (Romans 10:3-9)
- He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. (2 Corinthians 5:21)
- Just as David also speaks of the blessing upon the man to whom God reckons righteousness apart from works: "BLESSED ARE THOSE WHOSE LAWLESS DEEDS HAVE BEEN FORGIVEN, AND WHOSE SINS HAVE BEEN COVERED. "BLESSED IS THE MAN WHOSE SIN THE LORD WILL NOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT." (Romans 4:6-8)
- For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, "BUT THE RIGHTEOUS man SHALL LIVE BY FAITH." (Romans 1:17)
- whom God displayed publicly as a propitiation in His blood through faith. This was to demonstrate His righteousness, because in the forbearance of God He passed over the sins previously committed; for the demonstration, I say, of His righteousness at the present time, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. (Romans 3:25-26)
- yet, with respect to the promise of God, he did not waver in unbelief, but grew strong in faith, giving glory to God... Therefore also IT WAS RECKONED TO HIM AS RIGHTEOUSNESS. (Romans 4:20,22)
- More than that, I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them but rubbish in order that I may gain Christ, and may be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my own derived from the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which comes from God on the basis of faith, that I may know Him, and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death; in order that I may attain to the resurrection from the dead. (Philippians 3:8-11)
- nevertheless knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the Law but through faith in Christ Jesus, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by faith in Christ, and not by the works of the Law; since by the works of the Law shall no flesh be justified. (Galatians 2:16)
- May it never be! How shall we who died to sin still live in it? Or do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus have been baptized into His death? Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, in order that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life. For if we have become united with Him in the likeness of His death, certainly we shall be also in the likeness of His resurrection,knowing this, that our old self was crucified with Him, that our body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin; for he who has died is freed from sin. (Romans 6:2-7)
- For sin shall not be master over you, for you are not under law, but under grace... But now we have been released from the Law, having died to that by which we were bound, so that we serve in newness of the Spirit and not in oldness of the letter. (Romans 6:14; 7:6)

USB sticks are pretty standard look for offers for a cheap one (some fakes on the net) Rymans have a 32Gb stick on offer at the moment.
Your TV manual will tell you what format the stick needs to be for your TV to see and record on it (usually FAT32).

Of course, TV shows can be recorded to any external drive like USB drive. In new advanced TVs, there is an option to record to USB. You have to attach your USB drive to TV USB Port then follows the following quidelines, but first you ensure that your TV support recording technology.
1 Attach your USB HDD (note you must have USB HDD) to TV USB port, which is mostly found on back of the TV.
2 Use fresh or formated drive, most TVs give support to format USB HDD also.
3 Now, you are ready to record TV shows with the remote control by clicking the record button on your remote control, you can pause and play also. Your recorded data will automatically stored on you USB HDD.
Hope this helps

FP Express was a one time freebie given out with IE 5(?) and has been obsolete for years.
Definitely go with Macromedia Contribute 3 for this purpose. It's very easy to use and my users love it. They don't bug me for updates and they don't hose the design. To prevent users from hurting themselves, you can even limit them to a specific style sheet and turn off the ability to apply fonts, font-sizes, bold, italic, underline, etc.

A company in Spain called C12G Labs is working with Open Nebula to create very-high-end Cloud Computing support services. C12G Labs' initial offering "focuses on the specific demands of datacenters building clouds for performance computing environments, mostly in science and engineering," C12G spokesman Professor Ignacio M. Llorente told us.
(C12G is associated with the Scientific Park of Madrid. Its name is a "numeronym," beloved of geeks but less so of marketers perhaps. There are 12 letters between the "C" in Cloud and the "G" in computing; ergo C12G. Maybe I'll change my name to R12F.)
"OpenNebula is being used by many supercomputing and leading research centers to build private, public and hybrid clouds for hosting virtualized computational environments," explained Llorente, "such as batch farms and computing clusters. OpenNebula is the most advanced open-source platform for building IaaS clouds, offering unique features for cloud management and providing the integration capabilities that many enterprise IT shops need for internal cloud adoption."
OpenNebula is the result of many years of research and development in scalable management of virtual machines on large-scale distributed infrastructures in collaboration with leading IT companies, Llorente added.

Texas Transportation Institute Traffic Congestion Study
WASHINGTON, Feb. 5, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA) President & CEO Pete Ruane released the following statement about the Texas Transportation Institute's "Urban Mobility Report":
" Washington, D.C., has the dubious distinction of being number one in two areas. It is the capital of partisan gridlock, and now traffic gridlock.
"The finding in the Texas Transportation Institute report that America's transportation network is more unreliable isn't a surprise to the millions of motorists who slog through bumper-to-bumper traffic in cities of all sizes, or to the businesses attempting to move their goods and services.
"The real news in the report is the projection that traffic congestion costs will balloon another 65 percent by 2020 if we maintain the status quo. The number of hours of lost time will also skyrocket 55 percent.
"While we may have to accept deadlocked politicians, there are ways to get Americans moving again. Robust new investments aimed at creating additional highway and public transit capacity, and providing more travel options could help accelerate economic recovery and better prepare the nation for the 21 st century mobility challenges that come with it." Established in 1902, the Washington, D.C.-based ARTBA is the "consensus voice" of the U.S. transportation design and construction industry before Congress, federal agencies, White House, news media and general public. On behalf of its 5,000+ public and private sector members, ARTBA advocates for strong investment in the nation's highway, bridge, rail, airport, and port and waterway infrastructure systems.

nice modern chandelier
Great looking chandelier, fairly easy to install, price was ridiculously low. A few little problems: one of the glass shades has a few pockmarks (I turned that side toward the center, but that's still disappointing); the ground wire was damaged, so I had to disassemble the chandelier top to reattach it - time consuming and a little frustrating. Very happy that shades are frosted - it gives off a very pleasant diffused light. I used regular bulbs instead of CFL's, since those had brightness variations, quite noticeable through the shades.

unusual and stylish lamp
This is my 3rd try writing a review for these, hope it sticks this time. Anyway, I was looking for a lamp that didn't have a drum shade, which take up too much room on the console. These are perfect - smooth wood base with visible grain (so it has some texture), tall and slim so they can be placed in smaller spaces. Gives off pleasant diffused light, and probably not suitable for reading, but i am using in living room for atmosphere, so they work for me. Price was quite reasonable, significantly lower than other sites, and shipping was really fast.

Offensive genius Shanahan rides defense to victory
DENVER -- As an offensive-minded coach, Mike Shanahan must be going out of his mind watching his 2006 version of the Denver Broncos.
The fastest draw in the West the past 10 years now plays games with his gun in his holster. Since 1995, Shanahan's teams have outscored opponents 1,058-583. No NFL team is even close to those numbers. The 2006 Broncos, on the other hand, have not scored in the first quarter in their four games to date. As they've done all season, the Broncos relied on their defense to beat the Ravens 13-3 on a rainy, chilly October Monday night.
Considered a mastermind on offense, Shanahan is winning games along the lines of a Bill Belichick or a Lovie Smith or a Marty Schottenheimer. Denver's 3-1 record pleases him, but the offensive coach in Shanahan must be going crazy.
"Offensively, we struggled, but we managed to move the ball a little bit in the fourth quarter against an excellent defense," Shanahan said after Denver handed Baltimore its first loss in five games. "That's what good football teams do -- they find a way to move the ball and score some points when you have to. Obviously, we have some work to do on [the offensive] side of the ball."
Jake "The Snake" Plummer has been Jake "The Snakebit" in the first quarter of Denver's games. Talk about slow starts. Plummer came out and completed only three passes for 6 yards in a first quarter in which the offense totaled just 9 yards. Tatum Bell lost a fumble on his first carry, setting up a Ravens field goal. Plummer misconnected with Javon Walker and ended up firing an interception to Ravens cornerback Samari Rolle.
For sports talk shows in the Mile High City, Plummer is a target. Antsy fans want a change at the position. When the Broncos traded up in April to grab Jay Cutler with the 11th pick in the draft, fans thought a quarterback controversy was brewing. It wasn't. Shanahan thinks in terms of Super Bowls each year, so he's not about to turn his defending AFC West champion team over to a rookie. Plummer is his man for better or worse, and at the start of games, it's been pretty bad.

12 | Seahawks | 3-1 | Hasselbeck | 74.6 | 23 |
Playing without the lead isn't Mike Shanahan-style football.
Fortunately for the Broncos, a philosophical change on defense has made theirs one of the top units in the NFL. Last year, defensive coordinator Larry Coyer blitzed everyone. He seemed to call more all-out blitzes than just about any team in football. Coyer would constantly call "cover zero" blitzes in which the middle of the field was open because the safeties were coming.
During the offseason, the coaches had a change of heart. They noticed this particular group of defenders didn't need blitzes to make plays. The linebacking corps of Ian Gold, Al Wilson and D.J. Williams is considered one of the league's best. The defensive line, stolen from the Cleveland Browns, had the talent to dominate blockers. Defensive linemen hated dropping into zone pass coverage for zone blitzes, but they did it because they loved their coordinator, Coyer.
So this year, Coyer let the Broncos defenders play more conventionally. So far, the Broncos have allowed only one touchdown in four games.
"I think we caught some people by surprise last year," Shanahan said. "We didn't start blitzing until the Philadelphia game [Week 8 of the 2005 season], after we played the Giants. We felt in that game that we had a lot of five-man rushes and we had a few holding calls that weren't called. We thought we'd put it in our hands to try and get after the quarterback in certain situations. That has worked well for us, but they're going to catch up with you when you blitz constantly. You just can't do that consistently. You can't blitz like we did last year and be one of the best defenses in the National Football League."
The Broncos beat the Ravens the conventional way. They lined up in a 4-3 defense and just played simple football. Ravens quarterback Steve McNair dropped back to pass and had little time to throw. He completed 20 of 34 for 165 yards with three interceptions. Jamal Lewis had no running lanes, finishing with 43 yards on 15 carries.
"In the OTAs [organized team activities] and in training camp, seeing the guys up front getting pressure on defense -- especially in practice -- it kinda grew on them," Broncos defensive tackle Gerard Warren said. "Then to basically go out and do that to New England and Kansas City with the front four gave them more confidence not to have to go in with a blitz package."
Monday night's game came down to one simple play. With the score tied at 3 in the final seconds of the first half, the Ravens mounted one drive to the Broncos' 10-yard line. Even though Shanahan rode last year's Broncos blitzing defense to the AFC Championship Game, it ranked 28th at stopping teams in the red zone, one of the worst in football. On third-and-9 from the 10, McNair tried a fade pass to Clarence Moore, who was covered by Broncos Pro Bowl cornerback Champ Bailey.
"Obviously, I'm a little surprised they went for a fade route because that's saying they thought I didn't do my homework, but I did," Bailey said. "And they paid for it. Moore is a big receiver. What else are you going to do in the red zone? You throw the ball and hope he can outjump you. And what is that guy, about 6-foot-9?"
Bailey killed the scoring chance with an interception and allowed the Broncos to preserve a 3-3 tie. Jason Elam kicked a 44-yard field goal in the fourth quarter, and the Broncos put the game out of reach when Plummer hit Rod Smith on a 4-yard fade route with 1:55 remaining in the fourth quarter.
"The defense is really playing well and keeping us in ball games when we're not perfect," Plummer said. "We don't expect them to hold teams to no touchdowns and just a field goal. As an offense, we need to keep picking it up. It's a team effort, but we can't keep our defense out there all the time because they will eventually get tired."
At 3-1, the Broncos are fresh on defense and doing well for now, as opponents run up against a red light in the red zone -- they are 0-for-9 on third down with one touchdown and five field goals inside the Broncos' 20. In fact, Denver is the second team in the NFL since 1940 to allow only one touchdown in four games, matching the 2000 Dolphins.
That's right, the Broncos out-Ravened the Ravens.
"I've been telling everybody that we've been building the Ravens up all week and giving them their respect, but they ain't played nobody," Tatum Bell said. "Our offense goes against one of the best defenses every day. We just had to stick in there and do what we do."
McNair lamented his three interceptions. Ravens coach Brian Billick might have regretted the fade pass to Moore that was picked off by Bailey. "That play was one of the options we had, and it didn't turn out for us," Billick said.
Billick, considered a brilliant offensive mind himself, has been playing with a limited offense on a club that runs on its defense. Shanahan's offensive mind must be swimming at the thought of being just a defensive team.
But at 3-1, he'll take it until he can fix his offense.

The Two-Way
As Asteroid Approaches, Here's How To Watch It
Originally published on Tue November 8, 2011 12:38 pm
As we reported at the end of October, 2005 YU55, an asteroid bigger than an aircraft carrier, is set to have a very close rendezvous with planet Earth. It'll be closer than the moon and today at 6:28 p.m. ET, it will make its closest approach.
Don't worry. NASA is confident it will miss us. Here's a video NASA put together that explains the trajectory and shows an animation:
Of course, the big question, here, is how can one see the asteroid. If you don't have a telescope, you're out of luck.
Wired reports while the asteroid is of moderate size, it will still be 201,700 miles away, so you need at least a six-inch telescope.
If you have a telescope, Sky and Telescope reports the track is favorable for viewing here in the United States. It will be moving very fast, says Sky and Telescope, you have to know exactly where to look. They explain:
The object will traverse the 70° of sky eastward from Aquila to central Pegasus in just 10 hours, clipping along at 7 arcseconds per second. Use the chart here to get a sense of what part of the sky it's in, then download our detailed finder chart for use between 9 and 10 p.m. November 8th Eastern Standard Time (2:00 and 3:00 November 9th Universal Time).
If you don't have a suitable scope, or if it's cloudy tonight, check out the live webcast of the asteroid's flyby from Bellatrix Astronomical Observatory in Italy.
Also, for a little more context, Space.com put together this amazing info-graphic:

His current condition is unknown, and his name is being withheld pending family notification. The Granite Falls Police and Fire Departments were assisted at the scene by the Minnesota State Patrol and the DNR.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
Since something like one or two months ago i started to do my first approach on hinting, but i'm only using software-libre on typeface designing (like Fontforge instead on Fontlab, Inkscape instead of Illustrator, etc.)
The problem is Fontforge has no direct hinting support, and it needs an external help from a tool named xgridfit.
Do someone know how this work, and how can we efficiently work on it and Fontforge together? If it is, are there some useful and simple to follow documentation?
Thanks in advance! :)
Me too.
I've found that reading MS' and Apple's tutorials on TrueType hinting are very helpful to understand what all the gibberish means … while the xgridfit documentation isn't very well structured, to say the least.
I now understand how it works, but I still haven't found a way to make the XML coding efficient.*
I have to admit I've given up and asked the guys at MS to send me a copy of VTT.
* to be frank, XML is the most time-consuming format I can imagine for this process. It shouldn't take too long to implement a visual frontend for the Fontforge GUI ...
xgridfit is by no means required to do hinting in FontForge, it is designed as an xml-based higher level language replacement of the assembly-like TrueType instructions, and that is what it is all about. It works be generating a FontForge script that will do the actual instructions, apart from that it has no direct relation to FontForge.
FontForge has built-in support for Type1 hinting and TrueType instructions, and autohinting as well, check the documentation for more details, http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/realindex.html#Hints.

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including section 1822 of the National Defense Authorization Act of 2008 (Public Law 110-181), and in order to strengthen further the partnership between the Federal Government and State governments to protect our Nation and its people and property, it is hereby ordered as follows:
Section 1. Council of Governors.
(a) There is established a Council of Governors (Council).The Council shall consist of 10 State Governors appointed by the President (Members), of whom no more than five shall be of the same political party. The term of service for each Member appointed to serve on the Council shall be 2 years, but a Member may be reappointed for additional terms.
Sec. 2. Functions. The Council shall meet at the call of the Secretary of Defense or the Co-Chairs of the Council to exchange views, information, or advice with the Secretary of Defense; the Secretary of Homeland Security; the Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism; the Assistant to the President for Intergovernmental Affairs and Public Engagement; the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland Defense and Americas' Security Affairs; the Commander, United States Northern Command; the Chief, National Guard Bureau; the Commandant of the Coast Guard; and other appropriate officials of the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Defense, and appropriate officials of other executive departments or agencies as may be designated by the Secretary of Defense or the Secretary of Homeland Security. Such views, information, or advice shall concern:
(a) matters involving the National Guard of the various States;
(b) homeland defense;
(c) civil support;
(d) synchronization and integration of State and Federal military activities in the United States; and
(e) other matters of mutual interest pertaining to National Guard, homeland defense, and civil support activities.
When Gov. Perdue stated earlier this week as reported by Civitas:
"I think we ought to suspend, perhaps, elections for Congress for two years and just tell them we won't hold it against them, whatever decisions they make, to just let them help this country recover. I really hope that someone can agree with me on that. You want people who don't worry about the next election."
Would it not be easy to fit "helping this country recover" into the vein of "civil support activities" that the Council of Governors, Department of Defense, and Homeland Security have outlined as their functions in this Obama created executive order?
Interestingly as well, FEMA, now a department of Homeland Security, has the country split into 10 regions as well. Isn't that convenient; every Governor would get their own FEMA region to command, while the elections are suspended.
Even more interesting is that WikiPedia's page about the Council of Governor's links the Council of Governor's and the FEMA regions.
Below is a link to a Louisiana government website that has a picture of the 10 FEMA regions.

Lilly Pulitzer's Main Street Legacy Beyond Prep
NEW YORK ( MainStreet) --Lilly Pulitzer, the doyenne of the bright pink and green "shift dress" spotted from Palm Beach to Nantucket, died yesterday, but her legacy is not as stitched into class elitism as one might think.
Born in New York in 1931, Lillian Lee McKim married Peter Pulitzer Jr. and settled down in Palm Beach. In the late 1950s, she started selling oranges from her husband's nearby groves and opened up a juice stand on Via Mizner. She started buying loud fabrics to hide the juice stains that were inevitable and started working with a local seamstress to incorporate these vibrant fabrics into clothing. And her business was born.
"Her story is so funny, so counter-intuitive--she was bored, had kids, opened an orange juice stand," said Lisa Birnbach, co-author of The Official Preppy Handbook. "All the socialites these days, their husbands are in banking, so what would they do now, set up little check cashing stands?"
In 1962 First Lady Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy, was photographed wearing a "Lilly" on the cover of LIFE magazine. The brand--with its blithe colors and free-flowing seams--catered to the elite lifestyle but had an appeal that extended beyond.
