The Yearn for Zion Ranch polygamists raided in San Angelo, Texas have moved to San Antonio, and by the looks of this photo retrospective in The New York Times, the gang isn’t letting court orders get in the way of some crazy awesome fun. Between piggyback rides, a trampoline, and frequent naps, it looks like getting off the compound was the best thing that ever happened to these ladies. Now adjust that bonnet and button up that prairie dress - it’s time to PARTY!
Culture Buzz London hosts the “celebration of social games,” where digital and real-life play come together to result in what some might consider performance art, while others might call simply having fun (in an especially nerdy way). If you missed Come Out And Play, now’s your best chance to make up for all those beautiful sunny afternoons you spent holed up in the basement playing Oregon Trail.
Culture Buzz Set — the addictive card game for competitive, puzzle loving, geeks — is now playable online! The New York Times has added SET to the crossword section of their site. Of course, it is still more fun to play with the paper cards but I suggest you learn the game online so you don’t embarrass yourself in front of your friends. The game is recommended by MENSA! That is how cool it is!

Hasbro, despite not having any version of Scrabble available to play online, is threatening the social networking site over the similar-looking Scrabulous, created by two brothers in Calcutta out of a simple love of the game.
Style Buzz The famous Finnish textile company is doing a line for H&M’s spring collection. Yay floral prints! It’s like mom’s closet from the late ’60s all over again.
