Blue Plate Special: the Proud Women of USA Diners and their Food

Jerard here from Chase's crew. I love a good road trip. There's nothing like the freedom and discovery of hitting the road with no real destination, no particular schedule and nothing but miles as your mission.

Shepard Fairey has a new installation in London's Pleasure Gardens. The 10-story mural is part of the London Pleasure Garden's vision of emulating the 17th and 19th Century tradition of 'communal spaces where people from all walks of life converged to listen to music, admire paintings, stroll, drink, flirt and immerse themselves in the culture.'

There are currently three major fires burning at once. The High Park, Waldo Canyon and Flagstaff fires have consumed, by some estimates, over 100,000 acres and close to 600 homes. Devastating. The photography coming out of Colorado is powerful.... read more ›
