Miss’d America :: January 31, 2010
As with awards’ telecasts, beauty pageants can be a long slog through stage patter, swimsuit malfunctions, broken heels, and fire baton twirling-and yet, if an audience is lucky, there is sometimes one talent number that galvanizes the crowd into a spontaneous eruption of wild cheers and fanatical applause. Such was the case on Saturday night at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City as Miss’d America pageant contestant Michelle Dupree took the stage and delivered a knock-em-dead, eleven o’clock number channeling the spirits of Ethel, Ella, Judy, and Josephine that had the audience immediately on its feet with near-universal consensus of the night’s most electrifying performance and ultimate winner.

Are Bikini Baristas Getting Too Steamy?
Feb 8
Coffee shops in the Seattle area introduced "bikini baristas" three years ago, hiring attractive young women to serve up steamy espressos and lattes while wearing as little as a G-string and pasties. But cities are now taking a closer look at the "sexpresso" stand craze after police investigations revealed that some baristas were serving coffee with a side of something not even legal at many strip clubs.

By Eric Rosen | Feb 4
Welcome to Destination California, a monthly series from EDGE contributor Eric Rosen. Each month, Eric will be checking out a new destination- scouring the Golden State for its treasures. For his first installment, Rosen has chosen the city of premiers as the premier destination: Los Angeles.

This piece focuses on the gay mecca: West Hollywood - Weho, as it’s affectionately known. He also ventures into Weho’s neighbors to the east and west; Hollywood and Beverly Hills respectively. (Stay tuned to further updates in the series for other neighborhoods around L.A.)

Jan 2
It was forty-three years ago that the crème de la crème of New York society turned out for the legendary Black and White Ball thrown by Truman Capote at the Plaza Hotel, a party that became known as "the party of the century."

L’Universelle GMC :: The 2010 GMC Terrain
By Casey Williams | Jan 11
In 1955, GMC created a front-drive "mini-van" it named L’Universelle for its supposed ability to carry and do almost anything. Designed as a combination of the GMC Suburban Carry-All and VW Bus, L’Universelle was a forward-thinking display of style that could have beat Chrysler to the party by 30 years. Power came from a 180-HP Pontiac V8, placed behind the driver to improve handling. Like so many cool concepts, GMC never produced the van and it passed on to automotive heaven after the Motorama season. Its spiritual successor arrives as the 2010 GMC Terrain.
