Disney’s New Look of the Day: Starting February 3rd, Disneyland employees will be allowed to grow a beard following a landmark revision to the Walt Disney Company’s infamous “Disney Look.”
Some restrictions apply: The facial hair can’t be longer than a quarter-inch. And soul patches are still prohibited as well they should be.
Many of the other notoriously strict dress codes are still in place as well: No tattoos, body piercings, “extreme” hairstyles, and straps on sleeveless tops must be at least 3 inches wide.
Still, the acceptance of beards marks an important attitude adjustment at the House that Cartoon Mice Built.
“They want to stay tradition-based, and they also want to be current,” Disney culture chronicler David Koenig told the LA Times. “They don’t want it to become a museum of what entertainment used to be like.”

Barbie Ban of the Day: In what it referred to as a “new phase” in its ongoing crackdown on “manifestations of Western culture,” Iran’s morality police has moved to shut down dozens of toy stores peddling in banned Barbies.
The doll, once referred to by an Iranian children’s agency as a “Trojan horse” of Western influence, has been prohibited for sale in the country since the mid-90s.
Iran attempted to introduce a number of “pro-family” Barbie knockoffs with a more modest fashion sense, but the dolls were no match for the miniskirt-wearing original.
Despite the recent wave of suppression, the Associated Press notes that it continues to be fairly easy to obtain a Barbie in Iran.

RIP: Etta James, the legendary genre-spanning singer who gave the world many memorable hits including “At Last” and “The Wallflower,” has passed away. She was 73.
James, who was diagnosed with leukemia 2010, had been in poor health for some time.
Affectionately known as Miss Peaches, the Matriarch of R&B had multiple Grammys to her name, and was inducted into both the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and the Blues Hall of Fame.
Incidentally, the man who discovered James, Johnny Otis, passed away just yesterday.
