TYPES OF FACIAL HAIR
MUSTACHE
This 'stache never goes out of style. The hair is thick and angles over the top lip. Father-figures are frequent wearers of this classic cut. It is also famously recognized on badass action star Tom Selleck, who rocked his 'stache on the set of Magnum P.I. in the '80s. Selleck was even able to wear his signature 'stache as Monica Gellar's boyfriend on the sitcom Friends. Major props.
GOATEE
BEARD
Oldstone-Moore says full beards can say different things about a man depending on age. It can make an older man look more grandfatherly. But on a younger man, it is usually a statement of independence. "It says 'I'm wise, mature and make my own decisions,'" Oldstone-Moore says. "I don't have to march to another person's drummer."
Classify goatee under a safe bet, says Oldstone-Moore, a pagonologist who studies beards. Most men can grow a good goatee without it coming in patchy. "It shows toughness without going overboard," he says. But be warned, while the goatee was a staple of the 90s, the goatee is quickly becoming over done and out-dated.
Though stubble is the beginning phase of facial hair, some men choose to leave it at just that. Less is more with this grooming option. It exudes a casual-yet-sexy vibe with an all-over growth that isn't intimidating. But watch out for roughness — this style isn't too soft to the touch.
STUBBLE
Subtle stubble: Grooming and shaping a beard into a goatee is another option men can consider when growing facial hair.
SIDEBURNS
Though there are many sides to sideburns, there is no perfect science to growing them. They come in different shapes, colors and sizes. They can be big or small, thick or thin, shaped or unkempt. Grow a pair if you dare, but rest assured you'll have a hard time matching the most famous sideburns of all — those of the King, Elvis Presley.
The beard is back: Part of the appeal of a beard is the challenge of growing it. Though men seem to respect this talent, not all women enjoy encoun tering a scratchy face. Warning: excessive kissing could lead to an embarrassing 'stache rash.

FU MAN CHU
Also known as the "horseshoe" mustache for its shape, the Fu Man Chu is thin and straight growing down past the lips. Some may even grow it beyond chin-length, extending the greatness.Famous Fu Man Chus have graced the faces of movie villains and rock stars like Jimi Hendrix.
HANDLEBAR
You guessed it. The handlebar mustache looks like, yes, a handlebar. It could be the handlebars of a bicycle, but let's say motorcycle for increased intimidation. Aside from Harley-owners, Handlebar mustaches are known for appearing in Wild West movie characters and gun-slinging soldiers.

Details of the final proposal include placing additional security and trash cans around the hotel's property. The hotel also received a permit to sell alcohol outside the bar areas on its property, Longhurst said.

KU Police Chief Ralph Oliver said that a beaker had accidentally knocked over, and the chemicals had an odor. The police had to figure out what had been knocked over and if the chemicals were in the air system.

Study shows students to be less empathetic

An understanding friend may be harder to come by as technology grows and changes the way society interacts. According to a recent University of Michigan study, college students today, also called 'Generation Me', are about 40 percent less empathetic than those from the '80s or '90s.
The study measured nearly 14,000 students over 30 years, from 1979 to 2009. A Michigan graduate student Edward O'Brien, who worked on
That class of college students seems to correspond with the beginning of a new generation, one still at large, that is totally immersed in the Internet.
