20 Haircuts Worth Borrowing From the Boys: Brad Pitt, Kit Harington, and More

A haircut can give you a new life—that is the message promised by career-making stylists and also by last night's episode of Game of Thrones, which proves week after week that Jon Snow—who made a more literal resurrection courtesy of his dark ringlets last season—still has the best hair on television. Even if Kit Harington, the actor who plays Snow, has taken issue with the focus on his locks on and off camera, saying, “I like to think of myself as more than a head of hair,” he clearly understands the power of a good cut, keeping his artfully disheveled spirals in working order, whether his travels take him on dragon glass-foraging expeditions or beyond the Wall.

Of course, Harington isn’t the first TV heartthrob to inspire hair envy. We’d hedge our bets that a young Emile Hirsch, cruising around Venice in Lords of Dogtown, inspired just as many kids to pick up skateboards as he did women to call their nearest colorist. Fashion’s air-dried blunt bob owes a great debt to Kurt Cobain. And we’d like to retroactively award Taylor Kitsch’s Friday Night Lights rough-and-tumble layers with an Emmy for Best Second-Day Hair in a Dramatic Series.

Worried that a robot will one day take your job? Don't fear says a senior politician who is urging people to "embrace an android".

But Mr Watson, who is also Labour's culture spokesman, said he was much more optimistic that technological change could be a force for economic and social good.

Why is Christmas Day on the 25th December?

Christmas is celebrated to remember the birth of of Jesus Christ , who Christians believe is the Son of God. The name 'Christmas' comes from the Mass of Christ (or Jesus). A Mass service (which is sometimes called Communion or Eucharist) is where Christians remember that Jesus died for us and then came back to life. The 'Christ-Mass' service was the only one that was allowed to take place after sunset (and before sunrise the next day), so people had it at Midnight! So we get the name Christ-Mass, shortened to Christmas. Christmas is now celebrated by people around the world, whether they are Christians or not. It's a time when family and friends come together and remember the good things they have. People, and especially children, also like Christmas as it's a time when you give and receive presents ! The Date of Christmas No one knows the real birthday of Jesus! No date is given in the Bible, so why do we celebrate it on the 25th December? The early Christ...
