John Frieda's "Frizz-Ease Thermal Protection Serum" has dramatically changed my hair for the better--no more parched, weed-like ends. My hair is shiny and silky. And all for under $10!

The Tresemme Thermal Creations Heat Protectant really caught my eye and I tried it out a week ago and it does its job. I've seen lots of Youtubers use it too.

Unauthorized memory units are verböten under the next dashboard update to Xbox Live, which isn't of mainstream concern right now, but will be to those participating in the Xbox Live Preview Program.
Says Major Nelson, the Xbox Live community guru:
When Preview Program members start receiving the Xbox 360 system update next week, one of the changes is that unauthorized Memory Units will no longer work with the Xbox 360. If you've moved your profile or saved games onto one to "back it up," you'd better move it back onto an authorized Xbox 360 storage device prior to taking the update. If you continue to use an unauthorized Memory Unit after the update, you will not be able to access your stored profile or saved games.
One way to be sure you have an authorized storage device is to check it against this list.
Note: Unauthorized does not necessarily mean "third party." This link identifies the brands featured on third party products - including memory units - that are authorized.
Don't Use Unauthorized Xbox 360 Storage Devices [Major Nelson, via Gamers Reports]

Bernanke: Crisis showed need for stronger policies
Chairman Ben Bernanke says the 2008 financial crisis showed the Federal Reserve that it must strengthen its approach to both regulation and interest-rate policies.
Bernanke say the economy has yet to fully recover from the downturn, during a speech in Cambridge, Mass. to the National Bureau of Economic Research in Cambridge, Mass.
His speech focused on the Fed's successes and failures in managing the economy over the past 100 years. Bernanke told the audience he would not address the Fed's current policies in his speech but that he expected to be asked about it during a question and answer period.

We begin this tour exploring the Rila Mountains. This is landscape of exceptional natural beauty, boasting high peaks over 2500 m and fascinating alpine meadows dotted with glacial lakes, dense forests, spectacular rocky gorges and precipitous cliffs. On the first day of our arrival, before darkness we will check the conifer forests for Eurasian Pygmy Owl and Tengmalm's Owl. We will spend the whole next day exploring the conifer forests of the Rila Mountains, where we will be searching for the Eurasian Pygmy Owl and Hazel Grouse, as well as for the Black and Grey-headed Woodpeckers. Other mountain species that we may expect to see here include the Great Spotted Woodpecker, Spotted Nutcracker, Ring Ouzel (ssp. alpestris), Crested Tit, Willow Tit, Firecrest, Common Crossbill, Eurasian Siskin.
On the third day we move on to the area of the Western Rhodope Mountains. On the way we will check a few places for Three-toed Woodpecker (ssp. alpinus) and Eurasian Pygmy Owl.
The next morning we will spend walking in the conifer and deciduous forests of the Western Rhodopes with good chances to see a Hazel Grouse, Grey-headed and Black Woodpeckers. Other interesting birds we may expect to see here include the above mentioned White-throated Dipper and Rock Bunting, plus Sombre Tit, Marsh Tit, Bullfinch, etc.
Next we transfer to the Central Balkan Mountains with stops in the lowland deciduous forests and orchards, searching for Lesser Spotted Woodpecker, Middle Spotted Woodpecker and European Green Woodpecker. While passing the settlements in the plains we will have excellent chances to observe the Syrian Woodpecker and Little Owl as well.
The Balkan Mountain Range, crossing the whole territory of Bulgaria from west to east, is characterized mainly with its extensive beech forests, conifer forest, mountain meadows and enormous rock formations. This site is one of the wildlife-richest parts of Bulgaria. The whole next day we will explore the area of the Central Balkan National Park. Here our target species will be the White-backed Woodpecker (ssp. lilfordi). We can also expect to see here the Black Woodpecker, Grey-headed Woodpecker, Middle Spotted Woodpecker and Lesser Spotted Woodpeckers. In the evening we will visit some of the beech forests in the area, where we will have good chances to find the Tawny Owl.
Moving on to the Western Balkan Mountains (to the north of Sofia), we will be searching for Eurasian Eagle Owl and different species of woodpeckers, concentrating on those ones which we have missed or not seen well in the previous days.
For the last two days we will be based in the vicinity of Sofia. We will spend a full day in the Western Balkan Mountains searching for Rock Partridge and again, we will try to find those species of birds, which we have missed or not seen well in the previous days. Some of the species of birds likely to be seen here include the White-backed Woodpecker, Middle Spotted Woodpecker, Grey-headed Woodpecker, Black Woodpecker, Alpine Chough, Golden Eagle, Long-legged Buzzard, Sombre Tit, Rock Bunting and Cirl Bunting.
If we have time before departure we may visit some other birding sites in the vicinity of Sofia.
If you wish to join one of our scheduled Woodpeckers, Owls and Grouse Trips, please check the availability.

A patrol notebook containing foreign addresses, social media, and two Croatian Army officers led this New Jersey National Guard Soldier down the road to a family reunion during his Annual Training in Croatia.
Sgt. Eugene Butkovic travelled to Zagreb, Croatia as part of the 50th Infantry Brigade Combat Team's participation in the multinational exercise known as Immediate Response.
Butkovic said his grandfather, Eugene Gvozdenovich, who is now in his 80s, was a Croatian merchant marine from the coastal Dalmatia region as a young man. But when the country was a republic under the former socialist Yugoslavia, the grandfather left in the 1950s because he wanted the opportunity offered in America.
"My grandfather is always talking about the beauty of the country and how the water is so clear," Butkovic said. "When my grandfather found out I might be going to Croatia, he wrote down all our Croatian family members' addresses in my notebook."
He did know one cousin, Kathi Butkovic, an American now teaching at an American international school. He last saw her when he was a teen-ager. But the challenge would be reaching out to another cousin,Nikolina Hobjak. He didn't even know if she spoke English.
When Butkovic arrived at the Croatian Armed Forces Training Doctrine Command's Simulation Center on June 6, the Croatian Chief of Tactical Operations at the simulation center noticed Butkovic's name and started a conversation with him about it. The American sergeant told his story to Croatian Army Lt. Col. Mario Zabetovasky, about having family in the country.
"I was really nervous," Butkovic said. "I didn't even know if I would have time to see some of the family."
Butkovic, who operated the Joint Conflict and Tactical Simulation System during the Immediate Response exercise, said Lt. Col. Zebetovsky called the family on his behalf and the reunion started coming together. A few days later, Croatian Air Force Maj. Danijel Majsec provided transportation so Butkovic could meet Nikolina in downtown Zagreb. "She spoke perfect English," he said.
Lt. Col. Zabetovasky said helping the American Soldier was the least he could do.
"He is a Soldier and his family is here and that is the important thing," Zebetovsky said. "We help one another because we are friends with his family roots in Croatia."
During a professional development day, Butkovic attended a family barbeque in the village of Kebel.
"The Croatian officers jumped through hoops for me to make this happen. The efforts they put in to help me was pretty awesome," he said. "Everyone I talked to in my chain of command was helpful. It seemed liked they felt it was really important for me to see my family."
Along the way to meeting his Croatian family, he also found out there were other family members in the country and is finding them on Facebook.
"Zagreb is beautiful city. The country is beautiful. It was a great experience and I plan on going back hopefully to see the rest of my family," he added.

Today's Positive Thought
Today's Positive Thought is by, Napoleon Hill and Ralph Waldo Emerson.
"Do the thing and you shall have the power" was the admonition of Emerson, to this day our greatest philosopher.
That is literally true! Practice makes perfect. The better you do your work, the more adept you become at doing it, and this, in time, will lead to such perfection that you will have but few, if any, equals in your field of endeavor.

The Good Twin is owned and operated by Katie Wilson, in Los Angeles, California, with help from her pug assistants, Peggy Day and Rose (nappers-in-chief). In case you're wondering: yes, Katie is a twin. She likes to think she's the good one, but it really depends on the day. Her brother is older by 13 minutes, and they are at times eerily similar, but often complete opposites.

Oct-29-08 COAH Approves MOU With the Highlands Council
COAH Approves MOU With the Highlands Council
COAH Will Issue Guidance to Highlands Municipalities on Issue
TRENTON, N.J. – The Council on Affordable Housing (COAH) Board today approved a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Highlands Council. The Highlands Council is scheduled to vote on the MOU at their meeting tomorrow.
"The MOU is a great step in protecting the state's drinking aquifers and this environmentally important land, while at the same time providing the affordable housing that Highlands' residents need," said Department of Community Affairs Commissioner and COAH Board Chairman Joseph Doria. "Governor Corzine has stressed the need for inter-departmental cooperation and this action today indicates that we and the Highlands are ready, willing and able to work together on this issue."
The MOU will help with the issue of how to provide affordable housing in the Highlands region. COAH will issue letters offering guidance to Highlands' municipalities in the near future on the MOU.
Highlights of the MOU include:
Coordination of Planning Process and Plan Endorsement – COAH and the Highlands will share reports, data, and information relevant to each agency's function and collaborate on decisions regarding the suitability of sites for affordable housing.
Implementation of P.L. 2008, Chapter 46 – The Highlands will identify opportunities for affordable housing, including the requirement for a 20 percent set aside in all residential developments in the Highlands.
Implementation of Executive Order 114 – The Highlands will establish growth projections for 2004-2018 which will be utilized for the purpose of projecting municipal growth share obligations for municipalities that conform to the RMP. The Highlands will ensure that municipalities conforming to the RMP address the actual growth share obligations. The Highlands will identify sites, opportunities and funding sources for affordable housing developments and ensure that municipalities that conform to the RMP support redevelopment and development to maximize affordable housing opportunities while preserving critical environmental resources.
COAH will grant a waiver from the December 31, 2008 petition deadline to December 8, 2009 for any municipality under COAH's jurisdiction that, before December 31, 2008: 1) submits a duly adopted Notice of Intent in accordance with the Highlands Council's Plan Conformance Guidelines; and 2) submits a duly adopted resolution notifying COAH of its intent to petition COAH no later than December 8, 2009. The Highlands will ensure that municipalities that petition for Plan Conformance preserve scarce resources for the production of affordable housing. Subject to certain criteria, COAH will issue a scarce resource order for all municipalities in the Highlands Region under COAH's jurisdiction in order to preserve scarce land, water, and sewer resources and dedicate these resources on a priority basis for the production of affordable housing until such time as the municipality receives substantive certification from COAH.
Coordination of the Transfer of Development Rights - The Highlands will consult with COAH when a municipality in the Highlands Region or in any of the Highlands counties expresses an interest in, or submits an application for, participation in establishing a Receiving Zone through the Highlands TDR program. The agencies will cooperatively examine the affordable housing component of a potential TDR Receiving Zone.
COAH, an affiliate of the New Jersey Department of Community Affairs, facilitates the production of sound, affordable housing for low and moderate income households by providing the most effective process to municipalities, housing providers, nonprofit and for profit developers to address a constitutional obligation within the framework of sound, comprehensive planning.

If you're a lover of niche video game Tumblrs, here's a fantastic one: Video Game Foliage. "A blog dedicated to the beautiful and weird approximations of plants found in video games."
I came for the shrubbery, but stayed for the mention of Boku no Natsuyasumi, a Japanese series I've got a very soft spot for (I moved onto it after playing Sakura Note, a similar game about just...bein' a kid and doin' kid stuff).
That's my weird attachment though. For you, there are features on all kinds of bigger games, from Harvest Moon to Hitman. I know, it sounds like an almost fetishistic little thing to focus on, but seriously, this thing is great. Instead of just dumping pics, there's descriptions for most that make you think about video game trees like you've probably never done before.
Here, for example, is what goes along with some shots from Jet Set Radio:
Also a bush in a planter, which may be the more interesting construction. They get away with 4 quads arranged like the sides of a box to give the illusion of a volumetric shape and it works pretty well because you're moving so fast. The trees are made with 2 quads, but I suspect it's easier to trick the brain into seeing a radially symmetric or non-uniform cluster with few polys than it is to do a uniform non-radially-symmetric volume.

Beat the Streak Report: Thursday, June 3
The roughly 25 percent of streakers who selected Robinson Cano, Ichiro Suzuki or Michael Young feasted like kings yesterday, as each of these sure-swinging batsmen collected hits last night.
Cano is currently riding high with a 16-game streak and is one away from tying Jorge Cantu for the season's longest run. This leads us to perhaps the biggest dilemma that an aspiring Beat the Streak entrepreneur can face:
Do you keep dancing with the guy/girl you took to the prom, or do you scavenge for other options before your date turns into a pumpkin?
Clearly, Cano is beyond locked in right now, batting .525 over his last 10 games and an absurd .373 for the season. But in all likelihood, he isn't going to last you the entire 57-game run …right?
So when do you cut bait and look at other options?
I'm not exactly sure, but I can tell you that it won't be today with Kevin Millwood on the mound.
Gravy train all around! Who's with me?
Also, if you haven't already, take a look at yesterday's Beat the Streak mailbag. I posted it in the late afternoon so there is a pretty decent chance you missed it.
As always, keep the e-mails coming at email@example.com.
Time for Thursday's picks
Oh, hello there …
? Robinson Cano: 16-game hitting streak; .381 AVG (8-for-21) lifetime vs. Orioles starter Kevin Millwood
? Joe Mauer: .526 AVG (10-for-19) lifetime vs. Mariners starter Felix Hernandez
? Ryan Zimmerman: .500 AVG (6-for-12) lifetime vs. Astros starter Brian Moehler
? Jose Guillen: .444 AVG (8-for-18) lifetime vs. Angels starter Jered Weaver
? Nick Swisher: .355 AVG (11-for-31) lifetime vs. Orioles starter Kevin Millwood
Feeling kinda spicy?
? Garrett Atkins: .636 AVG (7-for-11) lifetime vs. Yankees starter CC Sabathia. Is this even possible?
? Erick Aybar: .455 AVG (5-for-11) lifetime vs. Royals starter Zack Greinke. Yeah, I think I'll pass.
You'll thank me later …
? Kevin Youkilis: .111 AVG (1-for-) lifetime vs. Athletics starter Brett Anderson
? Shin-Soo Choo: .167 AVG (2-for-12) lifetime vs. Tigers starter Rick Porcello
? Hanley Ramirez: .000 AVG (0-for-9) lifetime vs. Brewers starter Chris Capuano
Justin Morneau: .143 AVG (3-for-21) lifetime vs. Mariners starter Felix Hernandez
Leaderboard time!
Another one bites the dust, as Adrian Beltre's 0-fer pushed the reset button on "agentstjohn"'s 28-game streak last night.
This means we now have a six-way tie for the BTS leaderboard, as each of the following villagers of Streakville are rocking 26-game streaks:
? bathetruth
? jshoreyinsurance
? khouryboysan
? lisacco17
? scan15
? steveellis24
May the best streaker win.

Ichiro's hit in the 10th inning was amazing after all those foul balls he had to keep his At Bat going and theat saved my streak which is now 10. I'm going for Jeter for 11 because has a .481(13 for 27) average over his last 7 games and he went 0 for 3 yesterday and I believe he'll bounce back today.
Jeter is a good "gravy train" ride, but that train ride doesn't last as long as one would like. Also, it doesn't always pull out right away, after its previous stop. I generally like to see it get steaming along down the tracks again before I try to hobo aboard. Kinda fun staying with the "train" theme 😉
wohooo swisher with a hit, i finally break past my 10 mark.
YAY! 1st-Inning double by Cano to extend to 5 games!
seems like I am finally emerging from the slump!!!
By end of day, probably all Yankee starters will have gotten a hit. I think anyone that didn't select Yankees during this past week, missed a relatively easy 7 game increase in their streaks. As long as CLE & BAL are having such major issues, picking great hitters on really good teams playing against those two ball clubs appear to be sound advice for raising one's streak. Mental note made.
M Cabrara takes me back to double digits ( finally) with HR in bottom of 7. Thankfully now i dont have to kick myself for not taking a yankee, but i just cant pick against millwood. Not only did he kill my 17, he also 0-fer'd me another day this season.
Whew. On to tomorows pick. GL to anyone else waiting tonight.
Being reset right now and 0-fer for past 4 of 5 games, I decided to have a little fun to release the frustration…. So, I picked Ty Wiggington against the Yankees. Top of 9th & Orioles have 3 hits, 1 of them by Ty. Guess I'll have to start getting serious now 🙂
jeff keppinger yesterday austin jackson today buster posey tomorrow currently at 2 game streak from jackson and keppinger 🙂
Rode Cano today to get my steak back on track. May ride him again tomorrow or go with a lefty from CWS against Masterson.

I think I used Keppinger a while ago or strongly considered it, saw he went 0 for 3, and have stayed away since.

Oh damn, what a waste!
The White Sox have ABSOLUTELY no one to pick!
So the Indians' pitching is wasted for the weekend!
Although if Juan Pierre has continued to heat up from a week ago, before Yankee gold-rush, he may be worth a look, but I have a policy of never looking at the next day's games, until the entire current slate has gone final.
I just comment on posts here that insist on looking ahead.

lol, the blog rider screwed over those with Butler!
DeJesus was the much better chance if you wanted to go the Royals' route.
MLB Survivor: Those that picked the Nats to win gotta be upset. Bottom of 9th, runner on 2nd, 2 outs, lead by 1. Fat Elvis (Big Puma) lines to right field and ERROR, tying run scores. Next batter, El Caballo hits a walk off HR.
I've topped my season high today with 8 (picked Cano again). I'm going with Cano again tomorrow since he seems to have dominated Cecil and if I make it through Monday, I'll be at my career high of 12. Wish me luck!!
Good luck!!!! I may have to take a ride on the Cano gravy train since I'm back to zero. Went with Prado today so hopefully I'll get back on the board. Fortunately the Yankees won't be in Detroit, as Jim Joyce has become the Ray Finkle of baseball. 🙂
At least he apologized and teared up. He could have been all Angel Hernandez like and that would have been cold. He does have a heart.
Congrats and GL nymets1979.
Thanks guys and gals! I have such faith in myself and the players I pick to get hits that I can picture the $3M in my hands right now. I know, don't get cocky. I won't, not yet anyway.
The pendulum has swung back in favor of pitchers.
2 + 1 perfect games this year already. No wonder streaks are not as plentiful as last year.
I say Hall of Fame should add Galaraga's name to the plaque of those who have tossed a perfect game.
Friday? – Matt Holiday, Idhirio, Jose Lopez
I want to jump on the Cano "gravy train" but at the beginning of the year when he had his 14 gamer going I picked him on the day it ended so I am a little hesitant to pick him now even though he is extremely hot right now. I think I'm going with either Cabrera or A. Jackson since they are on the road and both hitting Chen well. Also, Cabrera has been hot since coming back from his daughters birth. I guess I have until 4pm EST to decide. GL to all tomorrow!!!
I have Cano tomorrow as I know he is out and he's bound to cool off eventually but I doubt it's tomorrow as he hits Cecil well and he hits lefties better than righties so I'm jumping the bandwagon even though I should of been from the beginning.
How about Torii Hunter v. the hittable M's hurler Snell?
Cano is tempting – Cecil has done very well in his last 3 starts though.
anyone have the guy that broke up Galaraggas no hitter? LOL
I may not be picking Cano today after what I just read. I was on MLB's Player page for Cecil and he has been doing incredibly well lately. Guess I may be making another pick even though I so want to stay with Cano. Maybe M Cabrera since I haven't picked him lately. We shall see.
"anyone have the guy that broke up Galaraggas no hitter? LOL"
I actually considered him, since he is actually the hottest player on the Indians right now, but backed off him, because of Cano's streak and because I was not really thrilled about picking the # 9 hitter in a weak lineup.
To add onto that point, there was a 1-hitter thrown against the Red Sox and lots of people had Jacoby Ellsbury, who collected the only Red Sox hit.
But that hit came much earlier in the game.

Iraq denies it wants Diego Maradona as coach
The Iraqi Football Association on Friday denied media reports that it was negotiating with Argentine great Diego Maradona to take over as a coach of the national team.
''There is no negotiation between Iraqi Football Association with Diego Maradona and it doesn't have any intention to hire him,'' deputy IFA head Abdul-Khaliq Masoud told The Associated Press over the phone.
The denial came a day after an Argentine football official was quoted as saying that Maradona was a leading candidate to take over as Iraq coach. Hernan Tofoni, the general manager of World Eleven which organizes international friendly matches for Argentina's national team, was quoted by Argentina's state-run news agency Telam as saying the leadership of the IFA was expected to meet Friday and complete an offer to Maradona.
Tofoni told Telam that Iraq had wanted to hire an Argentine coach and Maradona's name surfaced as a candidate.
The Buenos Aires daily La Nacion also reported that Maradona was close to signing a deal with Iraq.
Maradona was fired in July as the coach of Dubai club Al Wasl despite having a year left on his contract. He was dismissed as Argentina's national coach following the team's elimination in the quarterfinals of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. His time in charge split public opinion in Argentina with criticism of his tactical decisions, offset by the respect he commands for his achievements as a player.
Former Brazil great Zico resigned as Iraq coach last month over what he said was the Iraqi association's failure to live up to its commitments. Zico said he was owed four months' salary by the IFA, adding that he was disappointed by the lack of consideration for his work. He had been coach since August 2011.

Mitchell International ready for severe weather
What do you do if you are in the airport when severe thunderstorms are moving in?
When a tornado warning was issued Nov. 17, Mitchell International Airport Director Terry Blue said workers jumped into action.
"We were sheltering passengers and customers into the various tornado shelters, and we were sending out emergency notifications," Blue said.
They have a game plan for severe weather, and each staff member plays a key role.
"Anybody who carries an airport badge at the airport has a role to play, that's roughly 4,000 people," Blue said.
Those employees participate in drills throughout the year.
When a jet pushes off from the gate, it is the air carrier's responsibility on what to do next. If it is still at the gate, most of the time, those passengers will deplane and then go to the safe spots.
Those spots include the basement and stairwells.
The airport also has an emergency operations center, which is constantly monitoring weather and can share any warnings to passengers.
Almost three years ago, a violent tornado tore through Lambert St. Louis International Airport. It caused millions of dollars worth of damage, but no one was killed.
That airport was also storm ready.
Mitchell International is now the 20th airport in the nation to be certified as Storm Ready.

Maher: U.S. has 'grown up' since 9/11
Bill Maher said Friday that America had "grown up a bit" and were "more stoic" in their reaction to the Boston Marathon bombings compared to the aftermath of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorists attacks.
"It seems to me that the reaction to this horrific crime this week was so different than 9/11. Now obviously not as many people died by far, but it seemed like America had grown up a bit. It seemed like we were a lot more stoic, we didn't overreact," the liberal comic said on his HBO show "Real Time."
Maher's program was aired as developments were still unfolding in Boston, before authorities eventually apprehended Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, who is one of the two suspects in the case. The other, his older brother Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, was killed early Friday morning police pursuit just outside of Boston. Their motives remain unclear, including whether they acted politically. Authorities have said they are Muslim and of Chechen ethnicity.
But Maher said that they didn't quite seem to have the "balls" of more radicalized extremists abroad.
"It seems like Americanized terrorists don't quite have the balls of the originals," Maher said.
He then wondered whether America should respond to terrorist attacks in the same way the Israelis do.
"When the [Israelis] have an event, they don't build a monument to it. It's like it never happened," Maher said. "And they clean it up and the next day the thing is open for business and it's like, 'You didn't touch us.'"

The rumors have been numerous: Nintendo has a new system that will be more powerful than the PlayStation 3 or the Xbox 360. The controller will include a large touch-screen. It will be out in 2012. While the particulars are still a mystery, Nintendo has confirmed that there is new system is on the way, and we'll be playing it at the upcoming Electronic Entertainment Expo.
"Nintendo Co., Ltd. has decided to launch in 2012 a system to succeed Wii, which the company has sold 86.01 million units on a consolidated shipment basis between its launch in 2006 and the end of March 2011," the company said in a statement. "We will show a playable model of the new system and announce more specifications at the E3 Expo, which will be held June 7-9, 2011, in Los Angeles."
Nintendo President Satoru Iwata may not have told us what will be in the system, but he definitely gave hints about what we won't see. "We would like to propose a new approach to home video game consoles," Iwata said, as reported by Bloomberg. "It's difficult to make 3-D images a key feature, because 3-D televisions haven't obtained wide acceptance yet."
While Nintendo's portable systems are still doing very well, sales of the Wii have slowed significantly, and profits are down year over year. Nintendo needs a new hit soon to keep shareholders happy, although it's unknown how rumors of a more powerful system with an intricate controller would fit with the company's trend of releasing clever systems using off-the-shelf components and sold at a profit.

Vick in familiar QB role
The latest wrinkle in the Michael Vick experiment eliminated the gimmicks. Vick was back under center and yelling the signals like any other quarterback.
For the first time in 33 months, Vick took a few snaps and even showed a flash of his old dazzling style on Sunday. Vick put the finishing touches on the Philadelphia Eagles' 33-14 win over Tampa Bay, playing the final two series and shaking off a hard hit to his ribs.
"I'm just ready whenever my number gets called," Vick said.
He heard it called late in the fourth quarter.
Vick had been used in variations of the wildcat since he was reinstated. But he got his chance to show what he's learned in place of Donovan McNabb with the Eagles ahead 31-14 late in the fourth quarter.
Out of the shotgun formation, Vick completed a 1-yard pass to DeSean Jackson on his first play. After an incomplete pass, the next play broke down. When Vick failed to find any open receivers, he took off like he did when he was a Pro Bowl quarterback in Atlanta, and scrambled 11 yards for a first down.
He took a shot in the ribs on that play, sat out the next one, and returned for a handoff on second down.
Vick said he felt fine and X-rays were negative.
The dash and the hit made Vick feel like one of the rest of the guys for the first time since his comeback.
"It was just play ball, be natural with it," Vick said. "I let my instincts take over. It was good for me. Being under center is more natural. That's what I like to do, that's what I enjoy. In due time, I'll get my opportunities."
Except for blowouts, Vick likely won't get many more shots at running the offense in Philadelphia. McNabb isn't going anywhere unless he's hurt and Kevin Kolb stepped in the last two games and threw for over 300 yards in two straight starts.
So it's going to be direct snaps or lining up at wide receiver or decoy plays for the rest of the season. Vick, who served 18 months in federal prison for running a dogfighting ring, was on the field at quarterback and wide receiver for six plays that totaled 7 yards before coming in at the end. He finished 1 of 3 for 1 yard and ran twice before kneeling two times.
"It was fun to be out there playing with the first-string guys," Vick said. "You know those guys are going to do their job and they're well prepared. I was a bit more excited today than I was in the preseason. Not to say that playing with the threes wasn't ideal, it was just different."
McNabb's return meant the Eagles relied less on wildcat formations. They had run 17 plays for 86 yards in the gimmick offense entering Sunday.
"We used it as much as we wanted to use it according to what they were doing (defensively) and what we felt we could get done," Eagles coach Andy Reid said.

The sixth season of AMC's "Mad Men" came to an end over the weekend in the show's top-rated finale yet in the show's six-year run.
The show's costume designer, Janie Bryant, talked about the importance of one particular outfit worn by Elisabeth Moss, who plays Peggy Olson.
Spoiler alert: if you haven't watched the finale, you might not want to read on.
As Peggy is promoted to creative director after the firing of Don Draper, she represents the beginnings of the "modern woman." Bryant set out to reflect that by dressing Peggy in a pantsuit -- uncommon for women at the time, and a direct reflection of how far she had come.
"When we see her in the office, it really is that moment of 'I am empowered. I will survive.' I wanted to see Peggy in pants to illustrate that she had come so far. It was such strong expression of empowerment," Bryant said.
The show had 2.7 million viewers, the biggest audience yet for a "Mad Men" finale. Last season's finale drew 2.6 million viewers. AMC reported that "Mad Men" adds, on average, 2.4 million additional viewers after seven days of replayed viewing.
Another wardrobe choice had tongues wagging -- a T-shirt seen on Megan Draper, which was similar to a shirt worn by model Sharon Tate in a 1967 Esquire shoot.
Bryant's response was unclear, leading to further costume-driven conspiracy theories. Tate was murdered by followers of Charles Manson in August 1969, while pregnant with the child of husband Roman Polanski.
Here's the tweet, complete with side-by-side photo. Note: Photo NSFW.
@JanieBryant Dying to know if this pic of Sharon Tate inspired Megan's look? My dad shot it for @esquiremag in '67. pic.twitter.com/PIL6MA73jy— White Lady (@BHisaRockstar) May 27, 2013
Bryant's response was unclear, which led to suspicion that the character might have a similar fate.
@BHisaRockstar @esquiremag no coincidence! So nice to tweet meet you— Janie Bryant (@JanieBryant) May 27, 2013
"It would be a huge move to have a character to enter a historical event and replace a victim in this way. I love the idea, but still," a Redditor said. "Maybe Megan isn't Sharon Tate, but will eventually die in the same manner? The shirt is just alluding to her future demise by hinting at a real event?"
Bryant has said before that 60s style icons do not hold sway over what the characters wear, and specific colors have predicted episodes, according to especially observant viewers.

Patti Smith, in full Patti Lee Smith, (born December 30, 1946, Chicago, Illinois, U.S.), American poet, rock songwriter, and singer.
Growing up in New Jersey, Smith won an art scholarship to Glassboro State Teachers College. In 1967 she moved to New York City, where she became active in the downtown Manhattan arts scene, writing poetry and living with the photographer Robert Mapplethorpe. Her performance-driven poetry readings soon took on a musical component, and from 1971 she worked regularly with the guitarist and critic Lenny Kaye. By 1973 they had formed a band and began performing widely in the downtown club scene. Smith's mesmeric charisma, chantlike but hoarsely compelling musical declamation, visionary texts, and simple but ingenious rock music won her an intense cult following.
Signed to a contract with Arista Records, she released her first album, Horses, in 1975; it was produced by John Cale, the Welsh avant-gardist and cofounder (with Lou Reed) of the Velvet Underground. Her purest, truest album, it replicated her live shows better than any subsequent LP. Later albums of the 1970s moved in a more commercial direction, with a pounding big beat that bludgeoned away some of her subtlety; at the same time, her concerts often became sloppy and undisciplined. After Radio Ethiopia (1976) she released her most commercially successful album, Easter, in 1978. It included a hit single, "Because the Night," written with Bruce Springsteen.
Following the album Wave in 1979, Smith disbanded her group and retired to Detroit, Michigan, where she raised a family with Fred ("Sonic") Smith, founder of the band MC5. Although she recorded an album with her husband in 1988 (Dream of Life) and began working on new songs with him a few years later, it was only after his sudden death from a heart attack in 1994 that her comeback began in earnest. Gone Again appeared in 1996 and was followed by Peace and Noise (1997) and Gung Ho (2000). She continued releasing new records in the 21st century, among them Banga (2012). If anything, that late work showed her stronger than before, full of the old fire but purged of her more extreme excesses.
In 2010 Smith published the memoir Just Kids, which focused on her relationship with Mapplethorpe. The critically acclaimed work won the National Book Award for nonfiction. Her other memoirs are M Train (2015), about her travels and other experiences, and Year of the Monkey (2019), which includes some of her photographs. Devotion (2017) is an installment in Yale University Press's Why I Write series. In 2016 Smith accepted Bob Dylan's Nobel Prize for Literature on his behalf.
Although she never topped the charts, Smith precipitated punk rock in New York, London, Los Angeles, and beyond. A pioneer in the fusion of the bohemian sensibility with rock, she was able to translate the incantatory power of Beat writers such as Allen Ginsberg and William S. Burroughs into the rock mainstream. In 2007 Smith was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. France's Ministry of Culture named her Commander of the Order of Arts and Letters in 2005, and she was awarded the Polar Music Prize for her contributions to music and art by the Royal Swedish Academy of Music in 2011.

The distributions of heat, salt and chemicals (including pollutants) are critical to the intensity of ocean currents, to long- and short-term climate variations, and the health of our environment. Each is injected into the ocean at various rates and at various global locations. Mixing in the ocean acts to smooth distributions of these properties and to reduce concentrations of pollutants to tolerable levels. Understanding how mixing occurs and at what rates it proceeds is important to understanding how the oceans work, and is especially needed before accurate numerical models of the ocean can be developed.
|A towed instrument package (MARLIN) being put in the water off the Oregon coast. The hull, which houses instrumentation and sensors developed and constructed at CEOAS, is a converted aircraft wing tank.
In the deep ocean, turbulence is weaker and the physics leading to mixing less well known. Numerous measurements indicate that deep turbulence is too weak to mix the water the way it appears to be mixed in the deep ocean. The search for the mechanisms of deep mixing is now one of the most important research areas in oceanography. One possibility we are investigating is that the deep water is mixed at the ocean's boundaries, where turbulence is strong, and then transported away from shore and to depth by processes that are not yet understood.

The Moshi IVR clock is one of those rare, heartwarming products that serves two marginalized demographics: the blind and the chronically rude. For blind folks the benefit is obvious, as all of the clock's major functions are controlled with simple verbal commands. This includes alarm deactivation, but not necessarily how you'd expect. "Gggugugughghghhhhh" or "SHUT UP" won't do the trick — you've got to greet Moshi to initiate voice commands, then politely ask it— uhh, her — to turn off the alarm. Sort of like if you're talking to a human, assuming that human hovers by your bed and plays a plastic recorder into your ear every morning at 7:30am. As a product, the Moshi is pretty focused. There's no radio or MP3 support, and the alarm and voice command options are limited and unchangeable, though there is a pleasant "Sleep Sound" ambient noise function. The concept of an alarm clock that requires an ongoing, if simple, conversation to function properly is enough to justify its reasonable $50 price, and endorsement by the World Blind Union would seem to indicate that it's not a complete gimmick. Feature demos and purchase page are at the source link. [Moshi via Crave]

"...if that human hovered by your bed and played a plastic recorder into you ear every morning at 7:30am."
Make that 6:30am and you're talking about my kids.
Well, if this alarm clock ignores your pleas for silence too, that is....

Article content
DEAR AMY: My husband's best friend from work, "Billy," is an amazing man. He speaks several languages, has travelled the world and does a million other things. He's also friendly, confident, funny, easy to talk to, nicely groomed and well-dressed, and is a warm, generous guy.
We love him to death, but he can't get a date. The problem is, he's just physically unattractive. It's not any one feature; it's just sort of everything. He's definitely on the low end of homely. He is also short.
I've introduced him to every single woman I know. They like his personality and all agree that he's a wonderful guy, but none of them can get past his looks. (If I had run into him when I was single, I would never have given him the time of day, either.)
I know he's tried every avenue he can think of -- online dating, social groups, singles clubs, church groups -- you name it.
Online is worst. He's had hundreds of women abruptly cut off communication as soon as they see a picture. If he posts a picture at the outset, no one will respond at all.
My husband and I have both run out of ideas for this poor man. I know he's terribly lonely, and it eats at him to be constantly rejected. I think that it doesn't help that he wants to have children. He would make a wonderful father!
He's 44. Is there any hope for him? -- Sympathetic
DEAR SYMPATHETIC: "Billy" might be looking for love in all the wrong places. Yes, he has looked everywhere he, you (or I) can imagine, but has he volunteered to be an after-school tutor (or coach) at the local Boys and Girls Club? Has he looked into being a foster father or a Big Brother? Would he like to try to adopt a child?
What I'm getting at is if this wonderful guy would be a great dad, maybe he should cut out the middleman (or woman) and turn his search toward sharing his life with a child who will value attention, love and companionship as much as he does.
Being a single man is no longer the impediment to fatherhood that it once was. As his biggest and most generous fan, maybe you should engage him in a conversation that could ultimately change his life. Start like this: "Billy, have you ever considered becoming a dad? If you're interested, we'd love to help."
DEAR AMY: I dated a girl in high school for a short time and the relationship ended on good terms. I am now in college and we are good friends (we do not go to the same school).
There is a part of me that is still interested in dating her because I haven't found another woman quite like her, but I am not sure how to approach her about it because 1) I go to college out-of-state and 2) I don't know if she is interested in dating right now.
I don't want to ruin the friendship by saying what I feel if she doesn't feel the same way, but I am also not sure how to approach her about it. -- Confused Bachelor
DEAR CONFUSED:You two have a dating history and a close friendship. This is going to be easier than disclosing your romantic interest to a friend because you've dated her before.
Simply ask her: "Have you ever thought about the two of us hanging out together again?"
She may throw the question back at you: "I don't know, have you?" If so, you can say, "Yeah, I do think about it. But I don't want to mess up our friendship. What do you think?"
DEAR AMY: "Manager" wondered about the awkwardness of choosing not to hire a former associate who did not interview well with a group of co-workers the manager had assembled. You wrote, "I think it is somewhat unusual to be interviewed by potential co-workers."
Actually, it is pretty common, especially in tech fields, to have co-workers interview potential hires. -- Manager Too
DEAR MANAGER: Scores of readers corrected me on this. Thank you all.

RSL drew its last match, getting an 80th minute equalizer from FW Alvaro Saborio to tie the Colorado Rapids 1-1 on March 16 at Rio Tinto Stadium.
The Claret-and-Cobalt could be without 11 players on Saturday due to international call-ups and injuries.
RSL will be missing five players due to international duty, with captain Kyle Beckerman (U.S.), DF Tony Beltran (U.S.), DF Abdoulie Mansally (Gambia), GK Nick Rimando (U.S.) and FW Alvaro Saborio (Costa Rica) all with their respective national teams for upcoming World Cup qualifiers.
