Avril definitely rocks the necktie/wife-beater look. I can relate to that look, because one day back in fourth grade I thought it would be cool to sport a necktie to school. The best part is that fateful day was picture day. My freaky fashion attempt is forever frozen in time for the whole class of 1999 to eternally embrace. So obviously I was thrilled and most definitely relieved to see someone else attempt and pull off this look...
...always the way? You wait for a major sporting competition to come along, and three show up at the same time. At least they did last week in Spain. In the space of a few days the World Cup in athletics got off the blocks in Madrid, the World Equestrian Games went to the starting gate in Jerez and the World Rowing Championships were launched in Seville.

They have grown up surfing next to their sisters, female classmates and girlfriends. Men and women are once again happily surfing...
...supposed to be fun." Did he just use the F word? The Ryder Cup runneth over with all kinds of emotion: nauseating anticipation at the first tee; knee-knocking nervousness before a key putt; champagne-soaked joy - for one side - at the end. "Golf is usually a selfish sport," says Northern Ireland's cigar-chomping Darren Clarke, who's playing in his third Cup. But the biennial U.S.-vs.-Europe showdown has a rare team spirit that appeals even to nonfans. This year's matches, Sept. 27-29 at the Belfry in Sutton Coldfield, England, a venue that has hosted...
