“I was inspired by insect queens for this collection. To portray an array of characters, I used a new technique that I developed to create shapes and texture in the hair. I used juxtaposing forms and quirky dimensions to create this effect, and referenced historical and modern architecture to create the bold structures. I worked closely with the photographer, stylist and make-up artist to bring my vision to life.”

She was fucking tiny. She had a super thin waist, and only proportionately ( and moderately) pronounced “curves.” She was and still would be the very definition of conventional beauty.

“In the past few days, there have been at least 162 Islamophobic hate attacks in the UK, and nine mosques have been targeted with kives, petrol bombs and graffiti. That’s a 900% increase, according to the tracking group Tell Mama UK. Petrol-bomb attacks on mosques are not reported as terrorism, and nor are individual acts of anti-Muslim violence; we are expected to understand this quasi-organised campaign of fear as something else, as a ‘backlash’.”

talked to my doctor today and talked about my MRI results.

they said my mri came back “normal”, which means no tumors, foreign objects, things like that. which means that yes, it IS migraines. it is definitively chronic migraine, not something else. so we got all excited for a minute and i said “yay, i’m a llama again!”

because it’s that same feeling. the safety of knowing that your shitty situation is back to its normal shitty situation, the shitty situation you know and are accustomed to.

Cleared of Charges of Setting Off a School Explosion, Florida Honor Student Heads to Space Camp

“The explosion struck a chord with 18-year NASA veteran Homer Hickam, a former lead astronaut training manager for Spacelab, and later for the International Space Station.

In the late 1950s, Hickam had a brush with law enforcement for allegedly starting a forest fire. State police came to his high school and led him and his friends away in handcuffs, but his high school physics professor and school principal came to the rescue, clearing him of wrongdoing.

Back then, schools did not have zero tolerance rules. Kids could make their mistakes without the threat of a criminal record, or serving time in jail.

“I couldn’t let this go without doing something,” Hickam said. “I’m not a lawyer, but I could give her something that would encourage her. I’ve worked closely with the U.S. Space Academy, and so I purchased a scholarship for her.”

YES.

Woolwich Backlash: Essex Man ‘Attacks Local Mosque With Grenade’ in Braintree [Kent Mosque also attacked]

Two men have been arrested for attacking mosques in south-east England as the backlash against the butchering of a British soldier in Woolwich begins.

In Gillingham, Kent, a man ran into the local mosque and started smashing windows and bookcases. Meanwhile in Braintree, Essex, it is alleged that a man attacked the Islamic place of worship with a knife and explosive device.

Both the attackers have now been arrested by police.

In Gillingham, one witness told Kent Online they saw a man enter the mosque and start smashing glass, specifically targeting cabinets containing copies of the Qu’ran.

Officers established a protective line outside the mosque to prevent further attacks.

Meanwhile, in Essex, police have released a statement confirming that officers arrested a 43-year-old man in Braintree, on suspicion of carrying an offensive weapon and attempted arson.

The secretary of the mosque told Channel 4 News that the man burst in with two knives and tried to attack the congregation, and shouted “where is your allah now?”

Witnesses also claim the attacker threw an explosive device, believed to be a grenade or gas canister. A text [above] allegedly sent by a member of the Braintree congregation has appeared on twitter, although it has yet to be verified.

The suspect, who was arrested at 7.15pm, remains in custody.

The attacks came as a huge congregation of [Anti-Muslim] EDL members clashed with police in Woolwich in protest at the earlier murder.

As reported at the scene by IBTimes UK reporter Dominic Gover, Up to 150 English Defence League supporters clashed with police in running battles outside Woolwich Arsenal Docklands Light Railway station.

The far-right supporters had gathered in response to a call by EDL leader Tommy Robinson who had called for “feet on the street” in response to the killing.
