Lindsay Lohan epitomizes controversial. Physically, she is a vuluptuos redhead turned skeletal blonde. Personality wise, she is breaking the rules of the law and society whilst maintaining a likable vulnerability, Terry Richardson captures this hybridity in his February shoot for LOVE magazine.

Kate Upton x Terry Richardson

“We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too.”

- John F. Kennedy

nbaoffseason: upnorthtrips: How the Starks dunk changed NBA History The game has changed a lot since the 1992-1993 N.B.A. season, when the New York Knicks finally eclipsed their nemesis, the Chicago Bulls, in the regular season, and finished first in the Eastern Conference; and actually seemed headed towards a knockout of the Central Division juggernaut and repeating N.B.A. champs from the Windy City and the league’s darlings, in that spring’s playoffs. The 1993 Knicks, with the home court advantage, actually jumped to a 2-0 lead in the Eastern Conference Finals, and the Bulls’ believed forthcoming (but unrealized) demise was encapsulated by a twisting, left-handed, John Starks, baseline thunderclap that has become a part of our modern hoops’ lore. “The Dunk,” as it has become known, was the result of a sideline hedge by B.J. Armstrong, that left Starks an open lane to the rack and a dunk over Horace Grant and Michael Jordan.  But Starks’s dunk and the legendary series that also gave us this moment and this moment, has proved to have even longer tentacles than readily observed at first glance; with those 1993 Bulls’ on-the-fly strategy to counter the crucial pick-and-roll that led to the Starks stuff, becoming the cornerstone to the defenses of many teams in the league today. The :07 Seconds or Less, Mike D’Antoni, Phoenix Suns and their whirling dervish, Steve Nash, further necessitated advancements in the strategies to counteract basketball’s oldest play. And to think, the defensive strategies we see today have actually evolved from a defensive lapse by the 1993 Three-Peat Bulls. Beckley Mason of E.S.P.N.’s True Hoop breaks down just how we all got here: with the many offenses, primarily with elite scorers, going pick-and-roll in the waning moments — e.g. the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Los Angeles Lakers — and the defenses they face almost uniformly forcing those offenses baseline.
