Gowns, Wurst and Protesters: It’s Ball Season in Vienna
By KIMBERLY BRADLEY
At this time of year, women emerge from the city’s salons with elaborate coifs and crash courses in ballroom dancing are booked to capacity. But a political subtext lurks behind the dazzling scenes.

British Museum
Marie Antoinette was born ‪#‎onthisday‬ in 1755. Here she is as the Queen of France at age 19 in a print by Jean-Francois Janinet, after a portrait by Jean-Baptiste-André Gautier-Dagoty. The doll-like face of the 19-year-old queen has been reduced in size to allow the inclusion of her elaborate dress and fantastic coiffure. The portrait is further overwhelmed by the richly decorated frame, with its gilded foliage and blue marbling http://ow.ly/DyhhY

鯔魚頭  鯔魚頭(英語:mullet haircut), 是一種髮型。這種髮型頭髮在頭頂和兩鬢都被剪短,而在後腦勺留長。[1]
mullet
Popular in the 1980's, the mullet is a men's hairstyle in which the hair is left very long in the back but is cut short in front, on the top, and at the sides. Billy Ray Cyrus is known for his mullet hairdo, and the Beastie Boys wrote a well-known song entitled "Mullet Head."

Other names for this hairdo include "hockey player haircut," "bi-level," "shag," "neck warmer," "ape drape," and "SFLB" (Short in Front, Long in Back).



He may be a new-media whiz kid, but Jonah Peretti, one of the founders of the Huffington Post website, surely enjoyed his recent old-media moment. Last month, a New Yorker story quoted Peretti on the "mullet strategy," the HuffPost's way of presenting itself: Like the mullet hairstyle, says Peretti, its look is "business up front, party in the back."

In journalistic terms, Peretti explains on his BuzzFeed.com site, where he coined the term last year, the mullet approach means Web pages that greet the arriving reader are clean and shiny, while the shaggy, unedited user-generated content is stuffed into a closet several clicks away, not visible from the front hall.
The mullet metaphor is a bit weird, for a couple of reasons. The concept itself is hardly novel; we all know "best foot forward," "first impressions matter," "you catch more flies with honey." And it's not as if the back of a mullet hairstyle is actually hidden from view. (If only!)
