How LGBT bars, nightclubs became sacred spaces
New details continue to emerge following the shooting at Pulse nightclub in Orlando. It's been reported the FBI is looking into the wife of Omar Mateen, who suspected he might carry out an attack, but she did not alert authorities.
Mateen also may have been struggling with his own sexuality. There have been reports that Mateen frequented Pulse nightclub before the shooting. There are other claims that he used apps for gay dating.
Details are also coming to light about what unfolded inside the club. Many victims described playing dead, not knowing if the person next to them was dead or alive.
Gay clubs and bars hold meaning to people in the LGBT community. They're a place to gather, be safe, and be yourself.
So when Mateen opened fire inside Pulse, it wasn't just an attack on a night club; It was an attack on a sacred space.

National park 'artist' sentenced for vandalism
Casey Nocket, 23, has pleaded guilty this week in federal court to several acts of vandalism in national parks.
In 2014, the self-described artist painted over rock formations in parks such as Yosemite, Crater Lake and Death Valley, then Instagrammed her work.
That's where she caught the attention of Casey Schreiner, founder of Modern Hiker, who publicized the acts to alert the public.
Schreiner joins Take Two about how park vandalism goes beyond just one person, and what other visitors can do when they see someone being reckless.
Sports Roundup: Conspiracy at the NBA Finals and the connection between sports and Curb Your Enthusiasm
Tomorrow night in Cleveland, it's Game 6 of the NBA Finals. The Warriors lead the Cavaliers 3 games to 2. But recently a former NBA referee said the NBA issued a controversial suspension in order to extend the series.
And Steph Curry's wife Ayesha has for years been very active on social media. After Monday's game she sent out this: Can the refs get fined?

The Styled Side: tired of ties for Father's Day?
Father's Day is just around the corner. But giving ties is kind of tiring.
"Dads are tricky to buy for because many are not exactly known for being avid shoppers themselves," says Michelle Dalton Tyree of Fashion Trends Daily.
But Tyree has some advice on how to get your dad something unique, interesting and cool.
Cards
The number one thing people are buying for dad is a card – 64 percent of people do it.
But now online services will help you "hand-write" your card and send it out. Machines will make it look handwritten and even incorporate deliberately imperfect quirks so it looks real.
Services include Handwrytten, Bond and the Felt app
Gift baskets and boxes
If you do want to give a tie, there's a classy way to do it: don't do it yourself.
Sign up for a subscription service, and your dad will get a regular shipment of items each month.
"With Rootbizzle, someone else will pick out ties and socks for dad each month," says Tyree.
If fashion isn't what your dad wants, there are many kinds out there that Tyree recommends:
- For Food Lovers: Mantry, one of the top food subscription boxes for men.
- For Fishermen: Mystery Tackle Box, which sends new lures monthly.
- For Nerds: Nerd Block, which contains toys, games and figurines.
Where to shop locally
There's a way to shop locally from the comfort of your own home: Giftagram.
"The company is based in Santa Monica," says Tyree, "but they curate products from local and international retailers for you."
Some of the Father's Day products include chocolates from Beverly Hills boutique Sugarfina, wallets from Phoenix-based Bison Made and more.
