This month the Huffington Post covered An Evening with Bettie Page from Pin-Ups For Vets. They aim to raise money for hospitalised veterans and deployed troops whilst celebrating the pin-up queen. We love a burly good cause and the pics are worth a look too.

In more good news, ABC noted that A Bur-Less-Q Nutcracker who won the eighth annual 2014 Goldstar National Nutcracker Award. They beat 70 other productions to the coveted prize. Bravo!
