Crime tsar savages 'feral' police force: Plebgate scandal shows officers are too politicised, says top commissioner
- Christopher Salmon, Police and Crime Comissioner for Dyfed Powys Police, said the culture around police officers was too secretive
- His comments were in response to a row which saw Andrew Mitchell resign at Conservative Chief Whip after an argument with officers
- They come amid a series of revelations over the scandal
Accusing: Christopher Salmon said the Plebgate affair was 'uncomfortably close to a police conspiracy'
An elected Crime Commissioner has accused Britain's police forces of being 'feral.'
Christopher Salmon has waded into the Plebgate row by saying that the scandal that led Chief Whip Andrew Mitchell to resign 'appears uncomfortably close to a police conspiracy'.
Mr Salmon, the Police and Crime Commissioner for Dyfed Powys, said: 'The culture around them [police forces] is too closed, too defensive, too politicised and, in some cases, feral.
'In our ancient democracy, an elected Minister has had his career ruined by what appears uncomfortably close to a police conspiracy. It doesn't get much more serious.'
He added: 'For the sake of all those dedicated officers who wince every time they read a Plebgate headline, we must break open that culture. That requires greater transparency and fresh leadership.'
Mr Salmon's comments came as it emerged that a senior police officer blocked disciplinary action against three officers who forced Mr Mitchell to resign, that an officer who investigated them will appear before MPs, and that a review of how the Met police handled the Plebgate affair has not been made public.
Mr Mitchell was forced to resign after an argument with officers at Downing Street who refused to let him ride his bike through its gates. Mr Mitchell was accused of calling the officers 'f***ing plebs' – a claim he has always denied.
Mr Salmon's comments came as it emerged:
- The Deputy Chief Constable of Mercia Police blocked disciplinary action against three officers who apparently lied to force Mr Mitchell to resign.
- A devout Christian officer at West Mercia who investigated the three officers has been ordered to appear before MPs this week.
- A review of the Met's handling of the Plebgate affair by Greater Manchester Police has not been made public by the Force.
The Crown Prosecution Service is considering whether to charge five of the officers involved after they were arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office and unauthorised disclosure to the media.
Mr Salmon, 35 - an Oxford-educated former Army officer who served in Kosovo and Iraq before becoming a businessman - made his comments after a week-long row between the chief constables of West Mercia, Staffordshire and West Midlands, and the watchdog, the Independent Police Complaints Commission.
The IPCC has accused the chief constables of refusing to discipline three officers - Inspector Ken MacKaill, Detective Sergeant Stuart Hinton and Sergeant Chris Jones - who held a meeting with Mr Mitchell at his Sutton Coldfield constituency and then allegedly lied about what he had said to force him to resign.
West Mercia Police launched an investigation helped by Warwickshire Police and West Midlands Police, and supervised by the IPCC.
Last week, IPCC deputy chief Deborah Glass revealed that the West Mercia report first recommended the three officers should be disciplined, but a later version said they should not.
'Politicised': In the wake of the scandal police officers protested budget cuts outside Mr Mitchell's constituency office
The IPCC then ordered West Mercia to discipline the officers but it was ignored.
The Mail on Sunday has established that the Deputy Chief Constable of West Mercia, Simon Chesterman, blocked the disciplinary action.
Plebgate: Officers accused Mr Mitchell of insulting them when they did not open a gate for him to cycle through
The row is likely to escalate this week as the three chief constables - David Shaw of West Mercia; Andy Parker of Warwickshire and Chris Sims of West Midlands - face the Home Affairs Select Committee.
This weekend it emerged that a church-going policeman, Inspector Jeremy Reakes-Williams, wrote the West Mercia report, recommending disciplinary action.
But a month later, his recommendation was changed. He has also been ordered to appear before the Committee.
Separately, this newspaper has established that Met chief Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe ordered Greater Manchester Police to conduct a review into its initial handling of Plebgate.
The probe was completed in June, but Scotland Yard has refused to make it public even though Sir Bernard said the review was ordered to create 'more openness'.
Last night a Met spokesman said: 'We are not prepared to comment on the review in any detail at this time.'
Dominic Raab, the Tory MP for Esher and Walton, said: 'The danger in not releasing this information is that it will fuel fears of another level of cover-up.'

I don't like basketball,
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: NBA 2K14 - Xbox One (Video Game)
I haven't owned a basketball game since bulls vs blazers and have only been to one NBA game in my life. I noticed a few friends online playing this and laughed at them....they swore it was awesome and because i bend to peer pressure, I bought it.
I have to admit it is a great game....the graphics are amazing and looks almost like the real thing. Upgrading your player/team skills is neat-o! It does take ridiculously long to upgrade if you solely rely on earning VC through gameplay. I was getting annoyed of stinking and spent $10 to raise some skills.
I've been playing career and gm mode; both have been a lot of fun. So bottom line, even a guy that doesn't like basketball can enjoy this game! Main reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because of needing to be connected to 2k servers to play career/gm and the low amount of VC you earn during normal play.

After all, all she needed to do was confirm his story with the guy he asked a light from. Why did she ignore his protestations and just walk away, then report him? I can only assume that, regrettably, a handful of people are jealous of James when they should be happy for him getting his life together at last... Life is unfair. What James did in helping a little creature in distress when he had barely enough money to feed himself was absolutely amazing. He has earned his current success and he and his beautiful Bob deserve a better life and loads of happiness.

SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/13/12 -- Respect Network, the world's first personal cloud network, today announced the appointment of Gary Rowe, former president of market research firm Burton Group (now part of Gartner), as CEO of Respect Network Corporation. Burton was the leading global technology research company focusing on IT/Internet infrastructure with a client base that included over 40% of the Fortune 100. After assuring the successful integration of Burton Group with Gartner, Mr. Rowe served as an angel investor with Tech Coast Angels, the largest angel investing organization in the United States.
"I have advised many promising start-ups, and Respect Network presents a unique opportunity to build a better, more user-centric Internet. We aim to re-establish trust between individuals and organizations through a platform that allows people to control their data and interactions. A person who decides to communicate with a company on his or her own terms is far more valuable than someone who is unknowingly tracked and analyzed. I am honored to work with our Founding Partners to establish more meaningful, more sustainable, and more profitable relationships with customers and prospects by putting individuals in control of the data they share and the communications they receive on the Internet."
Even earlier in his career, as a principal with Rapport Communication, Mr. Rowe was considered one of the most influential analysts and consultants in high tech. He has authored articles and been quoted in publications such as Computer World, Network World, Internet Week, InformationWeek and BusinessWeek. He served on the Board of Directors of the Electronic Messaging Association and chaired a consortium of global telecom providers. He has also served in management positions at AT&T and NCR.
Through its Founding Partner Program, Respect Network enlists companies committed to the strong personal data control protections of the award-winning Respect Trust Framework. Neustar, one of the world's leading trusted neutral network service providers, is the first Platinum Founding Partner. Swisscom, Switzerland's leading telecom provider as well as one of the most trusted brands in Europe, is a Gold Founding Partner. Other Founding Partners include Allfiled, BioID, Bitworld, Ctrl-Shift, The Customer's Voice, Disconnect, Edentiti, Kynetx, Gluu, miiCard, Mydex, OwnYourInfo, Planetwork, Project Danube, The Searls Group, TrustCloud, and Virtrue.
Two weeks ago at the Sibos international banking conference, Respect Network demonstrated a prototype of the SWIFT Digital Asset Grid project that it developed in collaboration with Innotribe, the innovation initiative of SWIFT. This prototype included two of the first personal cloud applications: a cloud-based address book and an "intentcasting" app that lets users share their intent to purchase with trusted vendors and receive only qualified, personalized offers in return.
Respect Network will soon begin inviting select global brands to participate in this new consortium, enabling them to empower and connect directly with customers in a way that has never before been possible. For more information, visit www.respectnetwork.com.
About Respect Network Corporation
Respect Network is the world's first personal cloud network. It revolutionizes the social business model by giving people the ability to control and receive the value of their personal data, reputation, and relationships. All members subscribe to the Respect Trust Framework, the new model for personal data sharing that is listed with the Open Identity Exchange and won the Privacy Award at the 2011 European Identity Conference. For a list of the 20 Respect Network Founding Partner companies, see http://respectnetwork.com/. The first component of the Respect Network is Connect.Me, the P2P reputation and social discovery service available at http://connect.me/.

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.

Dear Parents as Teachers Family,
It is with mixed emotions that I announce my departure as President and CEO of Parents as Teachers. Providing leadership to this incredible organization for the past several years has been the honor of my professional life.
In August, I will assume the position of Chief Executive Officer for LAUP, a California-based non-profit focused on children from birth to age eight and their parents. As CEO, I'll work to help LAUP move toward sustainability, innovation and national relevance. This exciting opportunity will also allow me to live closer to family members for the first time in many years.
Parents as Teachers is a remarkable organization with the most dedicated, passionate and innovative staff that I have ever worked with. PAT has risen to national importance because of the remarkable leadership of so many who work every day to fulfill our mission in communities across the country. My expectation is Parents as Teachers will continue to grow in its national impact, as the organization moves from roots based solely in education to being a central component of America's health care system.
I can assure you that in my new position, I will do all I can to expand PAT's footprint throughout California. I want to emphasize that Parents as Teachers has some of the most respected and experienced staff and leadership in the national home visiting field. Our strong leaders will continue the wonderful path that we have been on together.

Dear Friends of Parents as Teachers,
Each of us at the Parents as Teachers National Center express our deep sadness following the mass shooting in Orlando, Florida. The children of America, whether they be infants or young adults, deserve our nurturing and protection.

We invite the entire Parents as Teachers family to join us in the full embrace of love and dignity for every human being, to deeply reflect upon the world we hope to hand to our children, and the actions we as responsible citizens can take to protect them and their futures.

Gus, Mo and the Webdesigner Express Team are totally in tune with workflow reminiscent of days gone by. You simply cannot find a web design company with the same level of customer service and dedication to perfection anywhere in today's age. I have worked with WDE for 7 months' 5 days per week, 3-4 calls per day! Everything we wanted ~ they delivered 110%. Their attention to my needs was unbelievable. Their execution to additions and changes was next day lightning quick. My personality is difficult, because of the many changes that our marketing department requested along the way. Mo, Gus and the WDE team seemed to always solve, and surpass all of my concerns and expectations. After working together for 7 months I have a genuine respect for what they do. I genuinely felt like I was the only customer they had, like a total VIP. Unbelievable. I would recommend this company to everyone. Value and Dedication and delivery speed is very very real with this crew. Web Designer Express delivered the total package! 1. Customer Service 2. Killer Design 3. 600% Conversion Improvement They are a true workhorse. As far as the final product ~ new corporate website's metrics improvements include but are not limited to the following: The new re-design achieves 300% more uptime in Google analytics, lower bounce rate by a huge margin, and close to 6-minute average user experience (as compared to only 30 seconds avg from our first site statistics) My customer base has instantly fallen in love with the new brand! • What a change in quality. • Every single page they designed and programmed delivers 10++ • Load times under 90 seconds. Thank You. Our marketing board admires the new product. The experience of working with this real company was unbelievable, and inspired our company a lot about re-thinking what it takes to be number one with customer treatment.

I signed up for WordJack's services because we needed some assistance in maintaining the social media marketing for our company. We wanted our Facebook page to be searchable and optimized with correct information, and we didn't even have accounts on Twitter, Pinterest, or any other social media sites. In short, we just didn't have the skills and know-how to get everything set up correctly. My experience with WordJack so far has been great. It's like having a personal assistant who looks after all of our social media campaigns for me. They post things on my social media pages weekly, or sometimes even daily. We've seen an increase in website traffic, as well as social media followers, and WordJack has really helped us get our name out there on the web. The thing I like most about WordJack is how quick their response time is. If I need something done, they are on top of it immediately. Our WordJack marketing manager is awesome—she's always just a quick phone call away! I would definitely recommend WordJack to other businesses because they are experts in many aspects of online marketing and can help you get your company name out there. Sincerely, Mary Katherine Frick Clint Miller Exterminating Mount Pleasant, NC 28124
I sent out a pretty vague request for a logo design and was feeling pretty overwhelmed by all the responses. I've never done this before, and had no idea who to choose. Marie's initial response was so personalized, she attached several images of her previous work that was in the same vein as my request, and seemed super confident that she could handle the job, so that cinched it for me. She intuitively understood what I was wanting and was able to come up with not one, but two designs to fit my unique needs. Her response time is incredible, her work is stellar, and her service is amazing! She is more than just a graphic designer, she's like a personal stylist for your business/brand. I will definitely be using BusinessSitedesigner again for any of my future graphic needs.

Urban Ag Greening Offers Gateway to Stronger, Safer St. LouisJune 16, 2016 | Annamarie Sysling
Gateway Greening has been taking a holistic approach to urban agriculture, gardening, and education in St. Louis for more than three decades.
"Our mission is to educate and empower individuals to strengthen their communities through gardening and urban agriculture," Gateway Greening's Communications Manager Jenna Davis says.
While the group started out as a gardening club focused on ornamental, native, and perennial plants, Davis says it has since blossomed into a three-pronged catalyst for grassroots community building. Read More
From Empty Lots to Thriving Plots: Urban Farming Expert Explains What WorksJune 13, 2016 | Anne Craig
From community and rooftop gardens to cultivating empty lots, urban farming has been going on as long as there have been cities. But over the past decade or so, as city residents have become more aware of the environmental, economic and community benefits of eating locally grown produce, urban farming has become a topic of wide discussion that has captured the attention and imagination of a diversity of stakeholders — from high profile restaurateurs and community advocates to the United Nations and local city councils across the US.
But does it benefit community, economy and environment? Have some of the virtues of urban agriculture been overstated? Weighing questions like these was the goal of a Johns Hopkins University study, "Vacant Lots to Vibrant Plots: A Review of the Benefits and Limitations of Urban Agriculture," published in May by Raychel Santo, Anne Palmer and Brent Kim.
Seedstock recently caught up with Santo, the coordinator for the Food Communities and Public Health program at Johns Hopkins' Center for a Livable Future in Baltimore, MD, to dig deeper into the study's findings. Read More
Backyard Farm Blossoms into Thriving Urban Agriculture EndeavorJune 9, 2016 | Abbie Stutzer
Rishi Kumar, co-founder of The Growing Club, got into urban farming because he loves plants and wanted to learn about eating healthy. It turns out he's not the only one.
What began in 2009 with Kumar and his mother taking over increasingly large sections of a residential backyard to grow more fresh food has developed into an educational non-profit that facilitates a network of demonstration sites in Los Angeles' San Gabriel Valley. These sites include a ½ acre demonstration farm in Pomona, a new public demonstration garden in Claremont called The Growing Commons, and the original Growing Home, which has evolved into a heavily integrated demonstration of sustainable living techniques that can be implemented by the average homeowner or tenant.

Wisconsin Urban Farming Progam Employs CSA to Bolster Access and Health in Food DesertJune 1, 2016 | Kate Edwards
An innovative urban community supported agriculture (CSA) effort is taking root in Racine, Wisconsin to improve access to fresh, locally grown produce. The program, called 'Growing Home,' is a grant-funded initiative of Racine's Homeless Assistance Leadership Organization, Inc. (HALO) whose goal is to deliver produce grown on an urban farm to families residing in a nearby 'food desert' where there is little or no access to fresh fruits and vegetables.
Much of the produce for these CSA subscriptions is grown in a 20-by-48-foot hoop house located in a vacant parking lot just South of HALO's offices. According to Jamie Williams, hoop house manager for HALO, grant money awarded by Sustainable Edible Economic Development, Inc. (SEED) provided the funds to purchase the Growing Home hoop house.

Grassroots Grows Up: Knoxville's Old City Gardens Looks to Build New Urban Farming ModelMay 5, 2016 | Khristopher Flack
A new Knoxville community garden project is looking to build a new model for urban farm viability by leaning on a triad of private investment, farmers, city government.
Old City Gardens began at the impetus of local business person and state economic development commissioner Randy Boyd, who was eager to see some of the lots he owns in Old City contribute to the area's green development. He was particularly inspired by Boston's Fenway Victory Gardens and wanted to find a way to catalyze a similar farm or garden project in Knoxville that could supply local restaurants with fresh produce.
While shopping the idea to a local restaurateur, Boyd was directed to Brenna Wright, owner of Abbey Fields Farm, which has cultivated an urban farm a mile and a half from the Old City site for the past two seasons. Read More
A 2-acre Farm in a Box: Kits Deliver Off-grid Farming Components in Shipping ContainersMay 1, 2016 | Anne Craig
San Francisco-based Farm From a Box supplies all the components needed to create a two-acre off-grid farm, packed in a shipping container that will then serve as a farm building. It recently announced a new partnership with Netafim, an Israel-based irrigation firm with offices in 120 countries, to supply the irrigation components.
Farm From a Box is the brainchild of partners Scott Thompson and Brandi DiCarli. Their kits include renewable power systems, internet connectivity, basic farm tools, micro-drip irrigation systems and water pumps that can be adapted to fit either a ground well or municipal water supply.

USDA Unveils New Urban Agriculture Toolkit for Urban Farmers and EntrepreneursApril 29, 2016 | USDA
News Release – WASHINGTON, April 29, 2016 – Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack today unveiled the USDA Urban Agriculture Toolkit, a new resource created by USDA's Know Your Farmer team to help entrepreneurs and community leaders successfully create jobs and increase access to healthy food through urban agriculture. From neighborhood gardens grown on repurposed lots, to innovative mobile markets and intensive hydroponic and aquaculture operations, urban food production is rapidly growing into a mature business sector in cities across the country.
"Urban agriculture helps strengthen the health and social fabric of communities while creating economic opportunities for farmers and neighborhoods," Vilsack said. "USDA's Urban Agriculture Toolkit compiles guidance from our Know Your Farmer team and many private partners into one comprehensive resource to help small-scale producers manage all aspects of their business. From protecting soil health to marketing to schools and grocery store chains, USDA has tools to meet the needs of this new breed of innovative urban farmer and small business owner." Read More
5 Things to Know About Growing in Urban SoilsApril 27, 2016 | Brian Allnutt
By Brian Allnutt
Beginning gardeners should always be prepared to garden imperfectly and learn as they go. You can make a lot of mistakes and still have a good time and pull some food out of the ground while you're at it.
But the one area where you can't afford to mess around–especially when gardening with children or pregnant women–is with soil contamination. Unfortunately, there are few centralized resources on urban soils and soil testing, and some dispute over what constitutes an acceptable level of various soil contaminants. However, it's important to at least be making informed decisions about where to grow and how to grow there. Here are five key things you should be thinking about when gardening in an urban environment: Read More

66th Air Base Group Safety Office
3/17/2011 -
HANSCOM AIR FORCE BASE, Mass.
-- Although fun and economical, motorcycles can be dangerous to the inexperienced or careless rider. The 66th Air Base Group Safety Office will host a preseason motorcycle safety briefing at the Hanscom Conference Center in the Concord Room on March 30 at 1 p.m.
This safety briefing will clarify any misconceptions or confusion that may exist about the personal protective equipment requirements and training requirements for Hanscom riders. The briefing will feature local speakers from riding groups like the Green Knights and the Patriot Guard Riders.
The briefing is mandatory for all Hanscom military personnel who operate or intend to operate a motorcycle on or off base and Department of Defense civilians who wish to ride on base while on duty. Contractors are welcome, but are not required to attend.
Air Force Instruction 91-207, the U.S. Air Force Traffic Safety Program, requires all Air Force personnel to attend an approved Motorcycle Safety Foundation course prior to operating a motorcycle on or off duty, and regardless of the member's decision to ride the motorcycle on a military installation.
Air Force civilian personnel operating a motorcycle while on duty must also attend or have attended an approved Motorcycle Safety Foundation course, regardless of the member's decision to ride the motorcycle on a Department of Defense installation.
All Air Force Materiel Command military personnel who are 26 years old and under are required to complete a Motorcycle Safety Foundation course, or equivalent, every three years.
There are two types of courses offered: the basic rider course and an experienced rider course. Any military member or Department of Defense civilian assigned to or residing on Hanscom is eligible to receive training vouchers to attend a contracted course.
There is no set schedule for the basic rider course or the experienced rider course. To request an application for a safety course, e-mail the safety office at firstname.lastname@example.com. For more information, contact the safety office at 781-377-5135.

theartsdesk Q&A: Kate Lindsey and Katharina Thoma on Glyndebourne's Ariadne auf Naxos | Opera reviews, news & interviews
theartsdesk Q&A: Kate Lindsey and Katharina Thoma on Glyndebourne's Ariadne auf Naxos
A director and a 'composer' discuss the riches of Richard Strauss's hybrid opera, opening the Glyndebourne season
What's the perfect Glyndebourne opera? Mozart, of course, must have first and second places with Le nozze di Figaro – Michael Grandage's lively production of country-house mayhem is revived again this season – and Così fan tutte. Then comes Amadeus's greatest admirer, Richard Strauss, and Ariadne auf Naxos - his most experimental collaboration with his then-established house poet for Elektra and Der Rosenkavalier, Hugo von Hofmannsthal.
The life-meets-art drama of a mythic opera seria to be staged in the palatial home of "the richest man in Vienna", whose whims mean that a commedia dell'arte troop must perform simultaneously to liven up the boring bits, fits the world's number one country-house opera company like a silk glove. Even more so in Katharina Thoma's production, which has taken note of Glyndebourne's makeshift function as a refuge for infant evacuees (pictured below) in the Second World War to set both backstage Prologue and supposedly onstage Opera in similar surroundings. The concept may turn out to be more serious than usual. With death obsessing prima donna Ariadne, and a shocking experience still rocking the heroic-tenor god who comes to save her, the context sounds more plausible than a bald resumé might suggest.
There to convince me in Glyndebourne's Red Room on a sunny May morning were Thoma and the American mezzo-soprano playing the adolescent, trousers-role Composer of Ariadne auf Naxos, Kate Lindsey. While we waited for coffees, we talked about the executors of the Strauss estate and their wariness of updatings (infamously, John Cox's 1920s Glyndebourne update of the pre French revolutionary setting for Strauss's last opera, Capriccio, meant it was never filmed).
Thoma told me the estate had asked questions about the wartime setting, bearing in mind the sensitive issue of the composer's fraught relationship with the Nazis, but were reassured when it was confirmed that no SS officers would come anywhere near the action. That led us to chat about the controversy of the Düsseldorf Tannhäuser, over which first night of which audience members were claiming trauma after seeing it Nazified; cancellation swiftly followed. Then the coffees arrived, and on went the microphone.
DAVID NICE Steeped as you are in Ariadne auf Naxos at Glyndebourne, has it been sheer pleasure? Because you're also bringing out the darker side.
KATHARINA THOMA It has been a great pleasure, yes, and I'm staying in the house. The atmosphere is incredible and I think we're really lucky because the cast is nice and the people who are staying in the house right now are really lovely, so it's a very enjoyable time. As for the feeling we have about this piece, I agree that it is the perfect Glyndebourne piece in more than one respect, in some ways that people might not expect, but it gave us quite a lot of opportunities to show details. We're thinking all the time about the history of Glyndebourne.
Did you decide upon what you wanted to do before you came here, or did you come here first?
Every day for seven weeks we are all in rehearsal working things out together, which is a luxuryKT I came here two years ago, a little bit before I had been to Glyndebourne for the first time, it was a day in March where people were busy in the workshops but there were no artists around , no rehearsals – it was just to see the place. A few months later I came to see a performance, and what it was like when the people make their picnics and so on, to get a feeling for this, and in between I had a feeling of what I would like to do.
Kate, this is your first time here.
KATE LINDSEY: Mm-mm. It's not my UK debut: I sang at the Royal Opera House last year, I was singing Zerlina in Don Giovanni.
So to come here and have this luxury of working so intensely over such a long period of time – it's presumably like nowhere else.
KL For me also this is a role debut so to have this amount of time, six weeks of rehearsals, is it?
KT Actually it's seven.
KL - seven weeks of rehearsals, to become really intimate with the piece, and to have Vladimir [Jurowski, the conductor] here practically the entire time as well…so every day we are all in rehearsal working things out together, which is a luxury, because a lot of the questions and inquiries which happen between the music and the staging we can work out in that moment, find that in the moment of rehearsal, which then leads us on a much more calm, smooth, clear path as we move forward [laughs].

The Fekkai Deal You Don't Want To Miss
Photo: Courtesy of Fekkai.
Our desire for great hair and our tight city-girl budgets don't often harmoniously coexist. Getting a good haircut can be pricy. This month, though, we don't have to choose between saving our paychecks and styling our locks: Frédéric Fekkai is offering 50% off hair-cut and color services to first-time clients for all of March. The deal is available to anyone born in 1989 (the year the star hairstylist opened his first salon) or later in celebration of Fekkai's return to the salon floor. This is March Madness we can get behind.
Fekkai has groomed the tresses of celebrities, models, and It Girls alike, but now you can get in on the action. All you have to do is book your appointment using the code "Femme Fekkai," sit back, and emerge flawless. Simple as that.
There are four locations in Manhattan, and you can bet these slots will fill up fast. If you want your tresses tamed by the master himself, however, make sure to book your appointment with the flagship Fifth Avenue salon. Did we mention it's half off?
