You don’t actually need to break any of your glassware to get super-glam glass nails! Although it may look like a hazard for your hands, have no fear: glass nails only look like they use actual glass. This magnificent nail polish trend out of South Korea uses segments of cellophane that reflect the light in a way that gives it a shattered appearance. Start with a normal base coat and a polish of your choice (or none at all!). To get the “broken” look, cut out tiny pieces of cellophane (you can find some in most craft stores) and place them on…

The iconic red and white barber pole symbolizes this historical tie, with red representing surgery and white symbolizing barbering. The tradition of the barbershop as a gathering place has been preserved, acting as a hub for social interaction and discussion. The importance of…

We recently asked our readers to tell us which male names they find most attractive, which gave us a whole list of 30 hot dude names. Personally, I have several guy names I find inherently hot and am invariably attracted to those who possess them (you can call me, Nolan), but now it’s time to talk about female names. It’s only fair. A quick poll in our office named these as the most attractive: I have always heard that women with traditionally male names are automatically more attractive. For example, the above listed Ryan and Preston, as well as Dillon,…

But some parents argue that it really depends on some important factors like age of the child or purpose for buying those outfits. One parent in a discussion forum said that buying toddlers and young children expensive clothing was pointless because of the following reasons: Thus, buying stuff from Old Navy or JC Penny will win as the practical choice.

Women have made incredible progress—which leads some to say that we should focus on problems affecting both men and women. But don’t declare victory yet. This past summer, a bunch of millennial women jumped aboard an Internet movement called Women Against Feminism. They posted photos of themselves along with captions such as “I don’t need feminism, seeing how I’m an ambitious, hardworking, confident person living in 21st century America. Why fight for rights I already have?” The idea behind many of these posts was that feminism’s work is finished, and the notion of “women’s issues” is outmoded and even possibly sexist.…
