Make it or Break it Lauren Hair Version 2

I apologize for the lack of and quality of these pictures but we did this style while we were camping. Since it was difficult to tell exactly how Lauren's hair was done during this episode this is our version #2.Make the center poof as before.  Then french braid along the face line as the post before.  The difference with version 2 is that I continued the french braid back up toward the high ponytail.  If I was to do this again I would french braid a little bit further so you can't...

What I would have told the BBC about the Apple iPhone antenna, if they'd actually wanted to hear it

I got an email this morning from BBC World Service radio, asking if I'd like to participate in a debate to "discuss whether the Apple bandwagon is grinding to a halt" in the wake of the iPhone antenna problem. I said sure, and they asked a couple of questions about my views.Unfortunately, when they saw my reply, they decided that my opinions were too similar to those of Computerworld columnist Mitch Wagner (link), who was also appearing on the program.
