As I was doing a little pre-Spring cleaning (don’t judge me) I found some of the vintage scarves my mother gifted to me.
When I first received them, I thought I’d use them for some sort of DIY decorating project. Now, with S/S 2011 as inspiration, I’ve decided I need to wear them.
Ergo, I’m building a headscarf arsenal.
While I’ve been researching on where to find the best headscarves (Etsy’s vintage section?) and how to tie them (I’ve already found a good start on vintage and hijab styles) I’ve found myself becoming more and more distracted by headscarf porn photos of beautiful headscarves throughout the fashion blogging community. Unable to work because – OH, LOOK, A PRETTY THING? No. Never.

Last April, we ran a story about an interview that Alex Jones of Infowars did with Gerald Celente of the highly respected Trends Research Journal. Most of the trends Celente points to are dire, painting a dismal picture of the future, but not all. Despite the very grim outlook, Celente has a charismatic, upbeat demeanor about him...
***Excerpt***
..."On a very positive note, go back to 1990. What got us out of the recession? A productive capacity: the Internet Revolution. Products were invented, designed, manufactured, serviced…
"What we're going to see now is an energy revolution. There are scientific visionaries and entrepreneurs that we see; and we're going to be releasing more information in two weeks in Trends Journal about breakthroughs in new energy that could shift the whole game. It may be as big as the discovery of fire or the invention of the wheel." ...

Gerald Celente, the founder of the Trends Research Institute, believes that the Internet will empower the youth of the world to unite to start a revolution that will overthrow the existing deadlocked elitist establishment. He predicts that in 2011 every citizen is going to realize that the Great Recession the world has been living through is actually a Great Depression, because the American establishment is "running out of schemes."Gerald Celente, the founder of the Trends Research Institute, believes that the... more

What’s in store for the world in 2011? Trends forecaster Gerald Celente of the Trends Research Institute provided his insights on the year ahead. Will the people of the world wake up to a dire economic reality? Will the US dollar or the value of gold prevail? Will hardship-driven crimes be committed across the socioeconomic spectrum by legions of the on-the-edge desperate? Will the “War on Terror” morph into the “War on Crime,” where all Americans are suspects until proven innocent? Will governments try to eliminate free access to the web and literally shut down computers and websites they consider a threat to national security? Will the seeds of revolution be sown?
Celente argued that all of the above will take place in some shape or form. There will be a wakeup call on the economy, a crack down on the people and a loss of liberty, and also an increase in Journalism 2.0, alternative energy and a growth in cyber war tactics. “Look what’s happening now. You name the city,” he said.
“The people are getting hit on at every level.” The banks and governments are robbing the people and will continue to do so, he argued. “What they are going to do, is they are going to make up the slack by going after the little people at every level; licensing fees, parking fees, you name it, they’re going to squeeze every dollar out of the people,” Celente commented.
“If you go five miles over the speed limit there’s a cop waiting for you.” Gold will run high in 2010, as the federal resave continues to dump US currency into the system gold will rise much higher, possibly even double in value over the next year. In the name of terror the government will clamp down on the people, crime will rise as dissatisfaction with the economy and government policies rise. “Big Brother will be watching!” Celente said. “We even have Wal-Marts as a rat for the homeland security division to call them up and let them know if anything is untore that they should know about and they are talking now about expanding homeland terrorist security in hotels and shopping malls.
” The US government will be watching every move every person makes. “They are going to clamp down more and more as people continue to complain more and more about the injustices that are happening, particularly on the economic front,” he explained. “When people lose everything, and they have nothing left to lose, they lose it! As people keep losing it, the government will crack down even tighter.” Looking forward, cyber warfare will grow further, becoming a new type of warfare for the 21st century. Those in cyber industry have a strong future, he added.
“Were going to see more and more cyber attacks, just like we saw with WikiLeaks,” explained Celente. “We’re going to see worldwide cyber crime. In the end, the world will end in 2011,” said Celente, but what that means exactly he wouldn’t say.
"When the people lose everything, and they have nothing less to lose, they lose it."

In the last century, we began to see an outwardly, unabashed sexual revolution through media. Our rock stars began as rebellious and “fuck you” and, over time, transformed into emotionally active, sensitive and sauced up (bare chested lads and spandex-clad gals & everyone’s singin’ about loooove). In the beginning, we saw movie stars in as early as the 1940s defining what we would later call “Hollywood Glamour.” As decades pressed on, we saw them embrace vivid sexuality and do so in a public light. Technology entered the sexuality spectrum as we progressed into our next era, contributing to what we thought of as “sexy.” At the start of the new century, our celebrities were outfitted in things that were so scant, they required items like double-sided tape…
[..]
...Could we be moving into a decade that contradicts completely the one before it? Will femininity (for those who want it) and absence of overt sexuality become overt sexuality? We went from the near-fetishism of teen girls in crop tops and latex to seeing those who our culture considers most beautiful and sexy in full-length gowns, layers, and even suits.
What is the next step in the journey of sex appeal?

There's been rumours online that Twitter has been stopping 'WikiLeaks' from trending on the site. The social networking site strongly denies this and have explained how their trending algorithm works on their blog. In short, the topics that people are talking about at that very moment are the ones that show. So if more people are talking about the cold weather than WikiLeaks, 'cold weather' will be what trends.
Over to the Twitter folks:
This week, people are wondering about WikiLeaks, with some asking if Twitter has blocked #wikileaks, #cablegate or other related topics from appearing in the list of top Trends.The answer: Absolutely not. In fact, some of these terms, including #wikileaks and #cablegate, have previously trended either worldwide or in specific locations.
The question is whether this is enough to save them from the wrath of angry 'hacktivists' who have warned they're planning on turning on Twitter, just as soon as they're done punishing the likes of Mastercard and Visa.
Probably not. Yesterday Twitter suspended Anonymous' account, citing an infringement of their user terms and conditions as the reason. Since Anonymous has a chaotic structure and no defined leadership, there's nobody to call the troops off. Once the threat has been made, it's very likely that it'll be followed through with.

If I had a fashion "thing," it would be coats.
I love coats. Jackets. Outerwear. They’re cozy, and they don’t have to compliment your outfit because you’re taking them off inside anyway, and even if you aren’t, they cover up the rest of your outfit and easily become outfits on their own. Coats! They’re fashion’s staple food in cold weather, the proverbial potatoes in the cellar.
I have a couple of coats – I do live in Seattle, the land of omg sudden weather (one of the freeways unexpectedly flooded yesterday…what!?) – but every year I find myself looking for just one more. It doesn’t help that I’ve gained weight, and wearing a jacket that doesn’t fit is like muffin topping – ew.
So here are a bunch of coats I want. They’re all under $100, and they’re all made by BB Dakota. (I own one of their wool belted trenches: it’s warm, and has held up really, really well for more than a year of rain and snow.)

The most rapidly growing religious category today is composed of those Americans who say they have no religious affiliation. While middle-aged and older Americans continue to embrace organized religion, rapidly increasing numbers of young people are rejecting it.
As recently as 1990, all but 7% of Americans claimed a religious affiliation, a figure that had held constant for decades. Today, 17% of Americans say they have no religion, and these new "nones" are very heavily concentrated among Americans who have come of age since 1990. Between 25% and 30% of twentysomethings today say they have no religious affiliation — roughly four times higher than in any previous generation.
So, why this sudden jump in youthful disaffection from organized religion? The surprising answer, according to a mounting body of evidence, is politics. Very few of these new "nones" actually call themselves atheists, and many have rather conventional beliefs about God and theology. But they have been alienated from organized religion by its increasingly conservative politics.The most rapidly growing religious category today is composed of those Americans who... more
