Tim and Christine Conners and have come out with a second book in the Lipsmackin' Backpackin' series that is completely vegetarian. Recipes include Fabulous Fry Brownies, Miso Madness, Algonquin Apple Leather and a series of bread recipes that would make any backpacking trip more enjoyable. There are great dishes for each meal time and some wonderful GORP ideas. The book has a range of drinks, fruit leathers and decadent desserts. I was pleasantly surprised when I found a recipe for Coleslaw which is dehydrated at home and rehydrated on the trail. I tested some of the recipes in order to help out. I found that the Green Dragon Pad Thai tastes great once you get past its vibrant color and the Fabulous Fry Brownies were amazing. Trailside instructions are printed with each recipe and again in the back of the book. The packable trailside cooking instructions are perfect for placing in the zipper bag with the food contents. The cut-outs appear in the same order as the recipes for easy finding. I would recommend downloading and printing the instructions which are provided by the publisher at http://www.falconbooks.com/lipsmackin/LipsmackinVeg.pdf allowing you to keep the book intact. Although Lipsmackin' Vegetarian Backpackin' is a meatless collection of good eats, it is a book easily enjoyed by all.

For centuries, up to the Second Vatican Council, the outward visible sign of the clerical state. A lock or sometimes a circle of hair was cut, varying in size, from the top of the head. the baptized and confirmed layman so tonsured was admitted to the clerical state with all privileges in an ecclesiastical ceremony. In 1972, with the apostolic letter Mysteria Quaedam, Pope Paul VI decreed that "The first tonsure is no longer conferred. Entrance into the clerical state is now joined with the Diaconate." This provision applies to the Latin Rite. (Etym. Latin tonsura, a shearing, from tondere, to shear, shave.)

GDP Per Capita Comparisons13
November 12, 2012 by Cole Cleburne
In a I examined where southern states would rank as independent nations in terms of GDP. Of course the larger more populous states should and will have larger GDP's. Next I'd like to look at GDP per capita. As I stated previously using GDP numbers is not an exact science, because it counts government meddling as economic activity. Let's look at where our southern states would rank as independent nations, then compare them to nations of the world. GDP per capita can be considered a strong indicator of living conditions in a country. ()
1. Virginia $53,463, (10th) comparable to Norway
2. Louisiana $47,467 (14th) comparable to the U.S.
3. Texas $45,940 (14th) comparable to Switzerland
4. North Carolina $42,884 (18th) comparable to the Netherlands
5. Georgia $41,711 (21st) comparable to Canada
6. Missouri $41,117 (21st) comparable to Canada
7. Florida $40,106 (24th) comparable to Ireland
8. Tennessee $39,730 (25th) comparable to Ireland
9. Kentucky $37,535 (30th) comparable to Denmark
10. Arkansas $36,483 (35th) comparable to the U.K.
11. Alabama $36,333 (35th) comparable to the U.K.
12. South Carolina $35,717 (36th) comparable to France
13. West Virginia $35,053 (38th) comparable to Japan
14. Mississippi $32,967 (40th) comparable to South Korea
As you can see from the chart, if each southern state were independent, everyone's standard of living would be comparable to South Korea or better. A free south would rank every new nation in the top 55 (adding the 14 new nations to the list) which would all be in the top quarter of the world in living standards. Now imagine what those dollars could do in the real economy, not spent on social welfare programs or the warfare state.

You know, you guys, who carry the might pens, are sort of the tip of the spear for the secession movement. I believe there is a seething minority, which amounts to a large group of people that support these ideas. For those of us who believe and agree, but have children in school, we have a mortgage breathing down our neck, sick kids, etc., what can we do to get this cause moving toward success. In other words, we read your articles, we hi-five and yahoo each other, but we feel sort of powerless of frozen in action. What do we do to help with the natural inertia that regular old folks have to overcome?
Rick, It is and it is not complicated. Yet there are workable solutions to those problems. I personally believe secession will be struck down by the Feds but I also believe a war will result from a tyrannical Federal Gov. Either way certain things have to happen. At best with a peaceful secession, the banks, businesses and practically all institutions will simply change the way they do business, directed by a new nation/state. All the bills and everything works the same except there will be no federal involvement. This of course would save money, from all businesses to the individuals. However any monies saved from mortgages and such would be worked out as an agreement between all parties.
What I actually see is much different and worse. I see civil war and a breakdown in all infrastructure. This would at some point involve banks going insolvent as the economy crashes. National as well as state government services becomes spotty and local government is over-whelmed. So what if you owe mortgage payments on anything? Who is gonna collect any payments? How are you gonna have any money to pay anything? This area will be wide for future consideration as to who will pay anything for anything concerning mortgages. There won't even be reliable medical services or utilities. It's a whole new world when this happens.
So, your questions are kind'of self explanatory, if you think them through. It only depends on which scenario you believe in and which actually happens. I am convinced though, this nation is gonna soon cease to exist and I betting its' death will be the most horrible thing that has ever happened on the face of this earth!
Talking secession is a good thing. Getting it actually happen is even better. But in reality its' likelihood is somewhere between slim and none! The whole public secession talk is only a red herring similar to gin control and talking about Obama and his bad deeds for the day. When all is said and done, things remain the same, time wasted while the real underlying root problems are still fostering and certain people actually making proper arrangements to take advantage of the situation.
Michael–Deo Vindicabamur
There is a lot of pessimism in your answer, even though your thought processes are on the same lines as mine. "Wasted time…." "things remain the same" I think we can work and change things. One thing I've found in my life is that (borrowed from Andrew Jackson) one man with courage is a majority. Things can be changed. It may take war, or a collapse, but it's the infrastructure of groups like the league of the South that will move in and take the reins. God, speed that day, but in the mean time, wecan work to change things.
Awl Rick,
You quote from my ancestor!
The thing is, we must try to do the *Right* things in order, even if we know they are likely to fail. This way we can honestly say we tried to do things the best and most righteous way possible.
It takes courage to have courage!
Michael– Deo Vindicabamur
This is very interesting. I think Rick has it right – please keep the information flowing to solidify support for secession.
Yes, we do need an independent South. Once it starts happening, the states would come over like dominoes. This situation reminds me of the herd of antelope at the crockadile-infested river. They all stand there on the bank looking, jumping back and forth until finally one gets the courage to jump into the river and make a go for the other side. Then, several more follow, and then the entire herd are crashing into the river and heading to the other side. That's the way it's going to be with the Southland. We're going to have a charasmatic leader get one state to the point of leaving and then the entire south will come as well. The question of our time is: where is our charasmatic leader? All we have now is talk.
[...] Cole Cleburne, of The Fire Eater, shows States' GDPs relative to other, independent countries and as per capita. [...]
I enjoyed the conversation. I'll be looking forward to your work on the Fire Eater or anything ese you do. I appreciate the work you and so many others do. It'll be you and others like you that'll change this world.
[...] you just feel the love? What a tremendous union this is. Guatemala is 118th in GDP per capita, a free Mississippi would be about the same as South Korea or about 40th in the world. Maybe the hosts need to do a little research before tossing insults. They also enlightened me on a [...]
[...] The south can survive and thrive on it's own independently. Imagine a Free Dixie. Join in and help us shake off our federal overlords. [...]

Mathematicians are creative. They find solutions for old problems—and discover new problems as well. You'll see evidence of God as you study math at Northwestern because mathematical laws describe the workings of the universe—and its divine order and constancy.
Northwestern's math department offers 4 study options:
Northwestern's full-time math faculty all hold doctorates in specializations that range from math education to Fourier-Feynman Transforms. Their investment in their students includes a math scholarship they personally funded.
Northwestern is 1 of just 89 colleges or universities nationwide with an "advanced undergraduate" actuarial science classification from the Society of Actuaries (and only 3 CCCU schools meet that classification). Our actuarial science students have an 89.5% first-time pass rate on the first two actuarial exams, which is significantly higher than the national average pass rate of about 52%. In addition, our students have typically passed between 2 and 3 actuarial exams by the time they graduate from Northwestern.

You Should Tell More Stories
Nothing draws us into a piece of writing like a scene, a piece of life, real or made up. Even if you are trying to make a point, a story is the best way to get that point across.
Nothing draws us into a piece of writing like a scene, a piece of life, real or made up. Even if you are trying to make a point, a story is the best way to get that point across.
"Where do writers get their ideas?" is the wrong question. Idea generation need not be such a mystery.
If you are looking for an idea to write about, or for a way to clarify your ideas on a particular subject, pick a fight. Start a heated discussion with the thoughts of another in the seclusion of your writing desk in order to get the juices flowing. Pick somebody big, somebody tough.
Our emotional response to the writing while the writing is in progress may get in the way of getting the work done.
The development of your writing ability depends on your willingness to be exposed to the writing of others in large quantities over a long period of time. If you won't and don't read what others write, you won't improve your writing.
One of the terrible facts of modern life is that almost all of our available time has already been claimed. This is how we create and reclaim time to do something meaningful and productive.
Why is it we want to reward our good behavior by giving ourselves permission to engage in the bad behavior that we are trying to leave behind?
Seth Godin said something interesting on his blog this last Monday.
It doesn't really matter what he said. What matters is that he said it.
There's not a bunch of media attention payed to stories about people who look back on their early selves with gratitude.
That really should change, if not in the cultural conversation as a whole, at the very least in our personal vocabulary.
Judy Carter is a comedian turned public speaking teacher. And she is great at both.
But I think her real genius shows in how she discovered her working niche in this world.

Johannesburg, 25 February 2009 - The French Development Agency (AFD) and Airports Company South Africa Ltd (ACSA) today signed a long-term €85 million loan (approximately R1 billion). The loan is repayable over fifteen years with a three year grace period.
The funds will be utilised to finance the extension and upgrading of ACSA's flagship airport O.R. Tambo International, in particular the Central Terminal Building. Christophe Richard, the Regional Director of AFD based in Johannesburg said: "This financial support shows how international development institutions can accompany, even in critical global financial times, development processes that structure the economy."As part of ACSA's strategy to diversify its sources of funding, it has approached a number of financial institutions, particularly those that focus on long-term infrastructure development. AFD is the first international development finance institution to support ACSA in funding its capital investment programme.Priscillah Mabelane, ACSA's Executive Director: Finance said: "We are pleased that AFD has partnered with us in providing long-term funding with an appropriate structure at the time that the credit market is constrained." The agreement emphasizes the quality of the partnership between France and South Africa in particular for the support of the organisation of the 2010 Fifa World Cup and the long-term development of Africa.
About AFD The French Development Agency (AFD) is a French government institution set up to provide development financing especially for urban, rural and infrastructural development, as well as industry, financial systems and education. AFD has been operating in South Africa since 1994. One of the main axes of AFD's mandate is to support infrastructures.

Putin: U.S. Staged Georgian Conflict
Says U.S. citizens engaged in conflict, armed and trained
Georgian troops
Friday, August 29,
In an interview with CNN, Russia's Prime Minister Vladimir
Putin has stated that the Georgian-South Ossetian conflict may
have been manufactured by the White House for domestic political
reasons. Putin also says that preliminary reports show U.S. citizens
may have been present in the combat zone.
"We have serious reason to believe that American
citizens were right at the heart of the military action. This
would have implications for American domestic policy." Putin
told CNN.
"If this is confirmed, then it raises the suspicion
that someone in the US specially created this conflict to worsen
the situation and create an advantage in the competitive struggle
for one of the candidates for the post of president of the United
States." he continued.
"They needed a short, victorious war."
"And if it didn't work out, they could always put the blame
on us, make us look like the enemy and against the background
of this surge of patriotism, once more rally the country around
a particular political force." Putin explained.
Watch a Russia Today report on Putin's comments:
(Article continues below)
In addition to the remarks broadcast by Russia Today, Putin
charged that Americans on the ground in Georgia were
"implementing orders" from their "leader"
during the conflict.
"The fact is that US citizens were indeed in the area in
conflict during the hostilities. It should be admitted that they
would do so only following direct orders from their leaders,"
Putin said.
"Therefore, they were acting in implementing those orders,
doing as they were ordered, and the only one who can give such
orders is their leader," he added.
The comments come in the wake of news that a
U.S. passport was found in a building in South Ossetia
occupied by Georgian troops.
As we have documented, reports of American mercenaries
being captured and found dead inside South Ossetia
and Georgia circulated in the days after the conflict began.
Putin also told the CNN interviewer that the Georgian
army was armed and trained for the conflict.
"Why hold years of difficult talks and seek complex compromise
solutions in inter-ethnic conflicts? It's easier to arm one side
and push it into the murder of the other side, and it's over,"
he said.
"It seems like an easy solution. In reality it turns out
that it's not always so."
Putin may have been referring to the military exercise Immediate
Response 2008, which took place last month, involving no
less than one thousand U.S. troops working with Georgian troops
in a war game scenario. It was also well documented that Georgian
troops were flown out of Iraq by the U.S. to join the conflict
in South Ossetia. Aside from these facts, it is common knowledge
that Washington provides training and equipment to the Georgian
military, one of its coalition allies.
However, the White House responded by describing Putin's comments
as "patently false."
The western corporate media coverage has consistently toed the
line that the U.S. and NATO-backed client state Georgia is a helpless
victim in the conflict with Russia the evil aggressor. The origins
of the conflict were
completely flipped around and misreported. to hide
the fact that a far more complex
geopolitical strategy is being played out in the

Now, you may know that I am not of Italian descent. My ancestors came from places like Warwick and Quebec. But that's what makes this organization so great. You represent the 26 million Americans of Italian heritage -- the students, teachers, doctors, firefighters and so much more -- but your work and contributions don't know ethnicity, race, or gender. To you, everyone is a son of Italy.
For over 100 years, your members have given their time, money and energy to educational programs, disaster relief and medical research throughout the world. Your members literally met Italians at Ellis Island and told them where they could learn English and how they could become citizens. 100 years promoting civic engagement, social justice and philanthropy has strengthened the fabric of our society.
Italian-Americans have enriched and enlivened American culture in ways large and small. I am delighted to now be a part of this rich history and culture, and honored to receive a lifetime achievement award from a group that has achieved so much in its own right. Thank you again for all that you are doing to improve lives, build bridges of understanding and promote all that's great about Italy.

Year One: Batman/Scarecrow (2005)
This two-part mini-series, designed to tap into interest in Scarecrow around the release of Batman Begins essentially retells and greatly expands Scarecrow's 1941 origin story. The story adds a southern gothic element to Scarecrow's origin, introducing us to the bitter, insane grandmother who raised him. Scarecrow himself is reimagined as more of a Hannibal Lecter-type serial killer, who talks his victims to death before methodically putting them down for real. It's not a perfect story, but it's probably the best semi-recent Scarecrow tale, and it features some top notch early art from Sean Murphy.
The New Batman Adventures "Never Fear"
Okay, I've run out of good Scarecrow comic book stories, so let's move on to cartoons! Batman: The Animated Series really nailed a lot of Batman villains, but they mostly flubbed Scarecrow. WB Animation didn't really nail it until The New Batman Adventures, but boy did they ever nail it.
Essentially a loose adaptation of Fear for Sale, this episode finds Scarecrow trying to sell anti-fear gas. Eventually Batman is dosed and essentially becomes Frank Miller Batman, beating goons within an inch of their lives and killing crocodiles with his bare hands. The episode delves deep into some dark territory, essentially implying that Batman's ban on killing is based on fear, not some sort of noble moral code.
Oh, and Jesus, I can't even imagine how many kiddie nightmares this episode's redesign of Scarecrow caused.
Kartoons for kids everybody!
Well, those are my favorite Scarecrow stories. Got any good ones I missed?
Oh, and if you're wanting to read most of these stories, probably the best source is Batman: Scarecrow Tales, a collection of his best/most important stories released a few years back. It's where I read some of these for the first time.

Comfortable & versatile Rated: 5/5
I am an Australian size 12. The Medium fit perfectly. I love that they have a bit of extra height in the waist (without being unfashionable). This means they wont bunch up or fall down underneath snow pants, yet will still look fantastic for a gym or yoga workout. They are extra comfy too!

Traded to Miami Heat for No. 26 pick P.J. Hairston and two second round picks.
Ben Bolch: Miami-bound point guard was a Hornet as long as Kobe Bryant was.
No. 25 -- Houston Rockets -- Clint Capela, 6-11, 220, Switzerland, power forward
Scouting reports on Capela say that he is an erratic shooter from the field, is an abysmal free-throw shooter and can't handle the ball. But, like many in the draft, Capela has a whole lot of upside. The 20-year-old can finish near the rim and can run the floor, and he was one of the best rebounders in his league in France. He has the frame to put on muscle, which will be important if he wants to develop his back-to-the-basket game.
Ben Bolch: Gives the Rockets frontcourt depth with Omer Asik bound for New Orleans.
No. 26 -- Miami Heat -- P.J. Hairston, 6-4 1/2, 228, Texas Legends (D-League), shooting guard
Hairston started last season at North Carolina, but he was kicked off the team in December after a litany of police issues, including speeding in a car with marijuana and a handgun in it. But there's a reason he's a first-round pick. After leaving North Carolina, he averaged 22 points for the Texas Legends of the D-League. He's one of the best shooters in this draft, and someone who can develop into a legitimate NBA scorer. Whether his legal problems will follow him, though, is the biggest issue for teams thinking about drafting him.
Traded to Charlotte Hornets for No. 24 pick Shabazz Napier.
Ben Bolch: Troubled former North Carolina star gets to remain a Tar Heel with Hornets.
No. 27 -- Phoenix Suns -- Bogdan Bogdanovic, 6-6, 209, Serbia, small forward
Bogdanovic had a breakout season for Partizan Belgrade in the Adriatic League, but has a big buyout in his contract and might be a player who doesn't transition to the NBA for a few years. He's a talented scorer, but not much is known about the 21-year-old's game.
Ben Bolch: Try not to confuse him with late architect, urbanist and essayist of same name.
No. 28 -- Clippers -- C.J. Wilcox, 6-5, 201, Washington, small forward
Wilcox, 23, was second all-time at Washington in scoring with 1,880 points, and averaged 18.3 points last season. Also was named second All-Pac 12 team his last two seasons.
Ben Bolch: Top-notch shooter gives Clippers a logjam of wing players … for now.
No. 29 -- Oklahoma City Thunder -- Josh Huestis, 6-7, 230, small forward, Stanford
Best known for his defense, he had a school record 190 blocks in his career. Last season, Huestis, 22, averaged 11.2 pounds and 1.92 blocks a game.
Ben Bolch: Defensive specialist also becomes smartest guy in Thunder's film room.
No. 30 -- San Antonio Spurs -- Kyle Anderson, 6-7 1/2, 230, UCLA, small forward

For the first time in 23 years, the Chevrolet U.S. Alpine Championships will descend upon the slopes of Alyeska Resort March 18 - 23, 2004.
The prestigious professional snow racing series returns to the Olympic slopes of Squaw Valley USA this weekend February 14-15, 2004 for the event championships.
March 11: Austrian Stephan Eberharter and American Bode Miller stood side-by-side for photographers as one of the closest races in recent World Cup history began its final stretch run.
Overall Champs include USA, French, Swedes in World Professional Ski and Snowboard Championship Finals
The line-up of former Olympic Champions that have competed in the Jeep® King of the Mountain Series during its 13 years as professional snow sports' most prestigious event reads like a who's who list of the biggest names in the sport.
The gold medal was decided, or so everyone thought. Bode, The Herminator and the rest of Alpine skiing's big boys were already done for, and a few were even congratulating the apparent champ at the bottom of the hill.
Jeep has replaced Ford as the title sponsor of the country's only professional downhill series. Races are scheduled to air on CBS Dec. 15, Feb. 17, and March 24.
Looking for some excitement in California this weekend? Head to Mammoth Mountain where the two most recent Olympic gold medalists and a select group of fierce competitors compete for both team and individual glory.
Former US Ski Team member Kyle Rasmussen took the opening Jeep King of the Mountain event in Mammoth for the third straight year.

Tim Teufel talks about working with Daniel Murphy
Earlier this week at the B.A.T. dinner in New York City, Tim Teufel told reporters he will be the team's infielder instructor this spring.
In regards to how he plans to help Daniel Murphy, and whether Murphy can 'handle the position,' Teufel said:
[jbox color="white"]"Well, I hope so. You know, he has some work to do. He's played there before and he's learned from that. He's had knee problems and he needs to do better getting out of the way of contact – and that's pretty much my job to help him in that area. … It's all about feel out there. It's very much a timing position. When you play in the middle of the field you have to know that contact is coming, it's just a matter of when. We have to instill some timing with Murphy. This spring we will do some clockwork, put him on a clock to see the timing of things and feel the pressure. And also, how to get away from the pressure. Look, Murphy is a hard worker. … He's very competitive in the batter's box and I want to bring that same competitiveness to his defense."[/jbox]
Murphy ended his last two seasons with medial collateral ligament injuries, which he suffered while playing second base.
Murphy's 2011 injury didn't come as a failure to execute a double play, but his 2010 injury did. Learning to protect that leg by limiting the opportunities that runners have to slide into him will make or break whether Daniel can play the position full-time at the Major League level.

Just wondering why it's slow downloading on steam?
At these times I can hit 800kb/s on a torrent but steam will not go above 200kb/s.
Really frustrating trying to download an 8GB game :/
on 31-07-2011 13:08
one down a phone line is slower at downloading on a steam it will take longer for a 8 gb of game to download
on 01-08-2011 00:50
I understand that but why on a torrent can I hit 800kb/s but on steam it's just patheitc?
on 01-08-2011 01:48
its not much better with cable, I cant even find game servers, Steam has got issues..
on 01-08-2011 05:24
most common factor is bandwidth eg if there is hundreds of people all downloading at one time the connection will be a lot slower, can get max connection all the time going to be next to impossible if it's a just released/popular game.
on 23-08-2011 00:23
I think it's an issue with Virgin DSL, either Virgin on BT are throttling Steam. It's too consistant to be anything else, when I start downloading from steam it's at 600/700kbs then it drops to 220/240kbs and stops at that speed.
Friends on Virgin Cable have no such problems, downloading as fast as their connection will allow.
I was on Virgin Cable before moving into an no-cable area and I always downloaded as fast as my connection could go expect on rare occassions when the Steam servers were swamped.
on 06-05-2012 15:09
Because Virgin are now blocking ports, if this carries on i will leave to another isp that does not block ports soon gaming will be impossable

Back to work, you rebel rousing scum.
Yes, the Deepwater Horizon rig may finally be capped, but another oily disaster is now unfolding. The cast of Jersey Shore is threatening to strike.
TMZ is reporting that cast members are so disappointed with their season 3 contracts that they are refusing to shoot, as they feel they can making more money "doing appearances" than filming the series.
You know, back in the late 1800's, when a bunch of upstart "guidos" would try to unionize, the employer would hire some union busting thugs to go in and smash some heads. If MTV followed suit and made an example of The Situation by breaking his jaw in several places, I think the rest of the cast would fall in to line posthaste.
Consider posting a comment.

Week 6 Term Paper for Professor Inglis
Kelvin Samuels
My topic for this term paper will be lung cancer. This topic was chosen because I have pass family who've lost their lives to lung cancer. I believe the best way to start is by defining the disease. We will then take a glance at statistics and risk factors for lung cancer. Next will look at lung cancer symptoms, staging and treatment, and finally I will draw my final conclusion. I. What is Lung Cancer?
A simple and understandable definition of lung cancer is: A disease which consists of uncontrolled cell growth in lung tissues. Lung cancer consists of two types: Non-small cell lung cancer, and small cell lung cancer. "(NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer." (Zieve & Yi-Bin, 2010) The bronchi (The large air tubes leading from the trachea to the lungs that convey air to and from the lungs.) is where most lung cancers begins. The body normally maintains cell growth only producing new cells when needed. Disruption of normal cell growth results in an uncontrolled division and proliferation of cells eventually forming a tumor. Tumors can be benign or malignant, but when we speak of cancer (including lung cancer), the tumors are malignant. Lung cancer metastasizes very early after it forms making it a very life-threatening cancer, difficult to treat. A. Lung Cancer Statistics
Make no mistake; lung cancer is the most deadly form of cancer death. I decided for statistics I would research information on lung cancer deaths in the United States. According to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) the last reported year for lung cancer deaths is 2007. Let's look at the statistics. In the US alone, "109,643 men and 93,893 women were told they had lung cancer, and 88,329 men and 70,354 women died from it." (U.S. Cancer Statistics Working Group, 2010) Now let's take a look at the statistics by gender and race. For men, "black men were diagnosed with lung...

Once you get your braids or twists installed you must keep them looking hawt! To keep the frizzies at bay and to keep your extensions in tip-top shape, follow these easy steps to keep your 'do looking as new and smooth as possible until your next hair styling session. READ MORE
Did you know that braiders who work in salons are legally required to have a cosmetology license? The most significant thing this demonstrates is their training in safety, disinfection and sanitation when handling hair and tools to prevent the spread of disease, fungus and bacteria from client to client. Many braiders who work in braid shops are not licensed to braid hair. Our hair is very precious to us, so entrusting it to just anyone simply won't do. To help curtail any possible hair horror stories, I've compiled a list of tips on how to find a good hair braider. READ MORE
So you've got the long braids you've wanted for a while now, you're on your way with a healthy care and moisturizing routine and after wearing them down you may have found yourself stuck in a rut with wondering how to style them and add a different flair. I rounded up some cute styling videos that will inspire you to try something new. You'll need to be a tad creative to figure out how to do some of these but most can be done by the styling novice.
