Our Kelly: How Kelly Rowland was seduced by London
For someone so Texan, Kelly Rowland has taken surprisingly well to British culture. She gets Simon Cowell-level sarcasm, does a passable English accent, doesn't mind the cold too much, takes Sunday brunch at Julie's in Holland Park and loves the sticky toffee pudding at The Langham hotel. 'Sooooo good,' she says, her Southern drawl transforming the height of British stodge into spirit-lifting soul food. In the evenings, when she's not at Nobu or Hakkasan, she likes to hang out at the bar in the W hotel with Dermot O'Leary, go to The Box, get in the studio with super-producer Calvin Harris and sing at parties for Elton and Richard Branson (once, sitting on my knee during a slow number, Vegas cabaret-style, she made me blush).

He was released back under the board after being photographed.

7 Steps to Becoming Indispensable to Your Clients
Travel agents need to think differently about their role—and what their clients want—to compete successfully in today's technology-driven world.Tapping into clients' desires, acting as true advisors and focusing on what human beings can do—and machines can't—are among actions agents can take to transform themselves into "indispensable" resources, according to Nolan Burris of Future Proof Travel SolutionsBurris presented these and other tips in an address—From Agent to Advisor to 'Indispensable'—at this year's cruise3sixty conference in Vancouver. Following, in his own words, are selected highlights.#1. Tap into clients' desiresIf you ask the average person, most don't think they need a travel agent. You need to understand the difference between needs and desires; these are two very different emotional states. People desire a cruise, and in the days when nobody thinks they need a travel agent, we should celebrate that. You need to make them desire you [and your advice] as much as they desire to go on a cruise.#2. Return to advisingIf you go back 100 years, people did not call themselves travel agents; they called themselves travel advisors. Way back then, 100% of the revenue they generated came from professional consulting fees. Commissions did not exist yet, so it was all about selling themselves as an advisor. Being an advisor is the oldest thing in this industry, since people are asking for advice and not just information.#3. Titles matterTitles still have a role to play because a title is what you tell your customers you are. If you see yourself as a travel agent, clients are probably going to think of you as a travel agent. Try to call yourself a travel consultant, because that's what you really are. You guide people just like consultants did 100 years ago. Booking has become the domain of machines, but that's not what clients come to you for. Advisors will still be sitting here in 20 years, while agents will be replaced by an iPhone app.#4. Connect with emotionsHow do we move into the future? We focus on humanity––the thing machines can't do and will never be able to take away from us. Advice and opinion are not the same thing. Advice requires a human being connecting emotionally with another human being to find the right fit for that person. Only humans can do that.#5. Question your clientsRule No. 1 of consulting is never to think consumers know what they want. If you believe them based on that artificial reality [of Internet research], you're rolling the dice that they'll get something they really want. The machines always believe [your clients], because they are driven by advertising—where it's the right thing to buy because the advertising tells them to buy.#6. Go luxury: charge feesAnything that is rare is perceived as more valuable and people are willing to pay more it. For those of you who are considering charging fees, now may be the time. No one is sitting around the table saying, 'Let's take an $899 cruise;' that's not how it works. They're talking about emotional stuff [instead]. Advisors who tap into that emotion, put their focus where it belongs.#7. Start with emotionsStart with the human aspects of emotion, experience and desires. Those are what create the indispensable atmosphere that bonds people to you emotionally. To an advisor, a cruise is a [client's] dream; to a machine, it's just data."
To an advisor, a cruise is a [client's] dream. To a machine, it's just data.
Nolan Burris, Future Proof Travel Solutions
Top cruise line execs advice to travel agents at the recent Cruise Planners conference: Find a niche, concentrate on your passions—and make it all personal.
Small group tours may be just the ticket for clients who look askance at larger guided tours. Small groups programs are a prime sales opportunity for travel agents with well-traveled clients, solo travelers and retire... Read
Solo travel has been steadily growing for years now and suppliers are taking note. Many cruise lines have either waived or reduced single supplements, while tour operators—constrained by hotel contracts—ar... Read
Travel agents shouldn't overlook luxury train trips. They appeal to well-traveled upscale clients looking for something new and different. New trains and itineraries coming online mean more options to sell.
Tour operators who once focused on traditional motor coach tours are rolling out new options for small groups. The idea: to broaden the customer base.

Buffythecenterfold and jockey Victor Espinoza looped the leaders on the turn for home and went on to win the $107,200 Railbird Stakes (gr. III) for 3-year-old fillies Sunday at Hollywood Park.The 2-5 favorite in the field of six, the strapping daughter of Capote had a little trouble maintaining a straight course, ducking in on runner-up Honest Answer after getting the lead at the top of the stretch. She registered a game one-length victory in a time of 1:22 2/5 for the seven-furlong Railbird.Owned by Stronach Stables and Allen Brian, Buffythecenterfold is trained by Mel Stute, who last won the Railbird in 1987 with eventual Breeders' Cup Sprint champion Very Subtle.The winner, who was coupled with third-place finisher Dash for Money, settled third on the outside some three to four lengths off the pace of Honest Answer, who led stalking Himalayan through fractions of :22 2/5 and :45 3/5. Buffythecenterfold made a wide move around the leaders on the turn for home and was in command in the lane while somewhat erratic.Buffythecenterfold's namesake, Buffy Tyler, Playboy's Miss November 2000, was in attendance. Buffythecenterfold, who had been off since her seventh-place finish in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies (gr. I) in October until the March 23 Santa Paula at Santa Anita, has won both of her starts in 2003. Overall, she has five wins and a second in eight career starts and earnings of $334,135."Most importantly, we have a Hall of Fame trainer," Brian said afterward in reference to Stute, who was passed over for racing's Hall recognition for the fourth time recently. "That means a great deal to me. We love him a lot."Stute said the Hollywood Breeders' Cup Oaks (gr. II) on June14 at 1 1/16 mile is the most likely of several options for his filly. Buffythecenterfold paid $2.80, $2.10 and $2.10. Honest Answer, ridden by Corey Nakatani, returned $3.40 and $2.10. Alex Solis was aboard Buffy's entrymate, Dash for Money, for the show. She finished three lengths behind the winner.(Chart, Equibase)

Reflect on your career at Alpharetta.
"I transferred to AHS my sophomore year and became a starter. I hope that being the first D-I football scholarship recipient will lay a foundation for future players. I hope that I have demonstrated the dedication and hard work it takes to be not just a football player, but a good person and student as well."
Describe yourself as a person.
"I'm a laid back sort of person, one who takes everything in stride and pretty much goes with the flow. I am grounded and from a very closely-knit family that emphasizes the importance of education. I have two older sisters--one is a Biochemist in grad school at UNC-Chapel Hill and the other is Physics major at Pitt."
Describe yourself as a player (Strengths/ Weaknesses, etc.)
"I'm dedicated and passionate about football. I play the game hard and aggressively. My strengths are that I am physical, fast and athletic, and I play to win. I tend to lead by example."
Why Western Kentucky?
"One reason why I chose Western Kentucky is because it has one of the best communications programs in the country. They also have a very personable coaching staff that makes you feel like you are part of the WKU family. The opportunity to play early because of their need for DB's was another factor, and the fact that they were close enough for my family to come see me play was a bonus."
What are you expecting in year one?
"I hope to be able to contribute to the team where needed and help WKU have a successful season in our first year in the Sunbelt Conference."
What are your academic plans (Major, etc.)
"I plan to major in Communications and possibly minor in Psychology, and will also seek a graduate's degree."
Tell us a couple of interesting things about yourself (Hobbies/Interests, etc.).
"A lot of people don't know that I am a good writer and enjoy acting. I like to swim and play golf (7 Handicap). I also like to listen to slow jams while studying."

India announces plans for a Mars mission in 2013
India plans to send a space mission to Mars next year in a giant leap forward for science and technology in the country, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said Wednesday.
The Associated Press
India plans to send a space mission to Mars next year in a giant leap forward for science and technology in the country, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said Wednesday.
Singh said the unmanned spacecraft will enter orbit around the planet and collect scientific information.
He announced the mission during a speech marking the 65th anniversary of India's independence from British rule.
"This spaceship to Mars will be a huge step for us in the area of science and technology," he said.
The 4.5 billion rupee ($82 million) mission is likely to be launched in November 2013 with a rocket developed by the Indian Space Research Organization.
India has had an active space program since the 1960s. Since the mid-1970s, it has launched scores of satellites for itself and for nearly two dozen other countries. India sent a spacecraft into orbit around the moon in 2008.
Last week, the U.S. space agency NASA successfully landed a rover named Curiosity on Mars and has begun a host of scientific studies of the planet.

U.S. vs. Turkey: Three things that could matter, come Brazil
Jun 1, 2014, 4:50 PM EST
The United States isn't ready of the World Cup, but on Sunday, the team showed it's making progress. Improving on Tuesday's performance against Azerbaijan, the U.S.'s execution going forward was better against a more talented foe, producing a 26th minute goal that flashed the best of Michael Bradley and Fabian Johnson. With Clint Dempsey's second half insurance, the U.S. went on to a 2-1 win over Turkey, it's second in as many games of their pre-Brazil send-off series.
The returns, however, weren't entirely positive. Though the attack improved, problems were revealed at in defense, while the team's midfield arrangement proved ill-suited to protect an unsettled back four. While the U.S. didn't get bogged down in front of its opponents' defense (as it did against Azerbaijan), the team proved too willing to let its opposition move through theirs. The defense's left side was a big problem.
Six days from now, the U.S. will get a chance to address those issues. For now, here are three things we learned about the team which could matter come Brazil.
1. Bradley looking more like a number 10 …
On Tuesday against Azerbaijan, the U.S.'s diamond midfield was a misnomer. Michael Bradley, ostensibly the team's attacking midfielder, spent most of the batch behind his two carrileros. On Sunday, that changed, with the normally ranging Bradley almost restraining himself to stay higher in the defensive phase, offering an outlet out of the back.
The flip side of that: Bradley's positioning allowed him to exert pressure higher up the field, something that paid off in the 21st minute when a turnover in Turkey's half created a 3-on-2. On the U.S.'s opening goal, Bradley was coming from behind two of the opponent's central midfielders. He wasn't in front of them, as a would normally be with his club team. When the defense turned, Fabian Johnson had his space, and the U.S. had its opening goal.
2. … it's still unclear that's the best way to use him.
Speaking to ESPN's Jeremy Schapp at halftime, Klinsmann noted the diamond midfield left holder Jermaine Jones outnumbered when Turkey threw its highest midfielders into attack. Of course, that's the sacrifice you make when you go with this midfield alignment. The U.S. either needs to get its wide midfielders (Graham Zusi and Brad Davis) back quicker a la a normal 4-3-1-2 or it needs to pull Bradley deeper. Regardless, it was too easy for Turkey to get numbers at Jones and, consequently, that weak left side of the defense.
On Sunday, the U.S. was able to generate as many chances as its opponents. Against Germany and Portugal, however, that's unlikely to hold. These psuedo-diamonds are in fashion right now in U.S. soccer, but without players who can play deeper roles in the sides, the formation may leave a suspect defense overexposed.
3. The defense, particularly its left side, may be a weakness.
The wording of that header is a bit "no duh," but on Sunday, the problems were particularly evident. Against a Turkey team that seemed to constantly go at Matt Besler and Timothy Chandler's side, the U.S. appeared destined to give up a goal. Though Klinsmann almost got away with it, with his team only conceding near the final whistle, the U.S. coach learned a Besler-Chandler combination either needs help, needs to be avoided, or needs to improve.
This goes back to the criticisms of the midfield, above, but if we concentrate on the defense, it also raises questions about Chandler. Regarding Besler, we know he's a solid but limited player who, while reliable, needs solid players around him at this level. After Sunday's game, the question is whether Chandler (a.) can that player, and (b.) how often.
The performance brought back memories of his struggles last February in World Cup qualifying against Honduras. It also made DaMarcus Beasley, a natural midfielder, look more viable. To the eyes, an even per his résumé, Chandler seems like the more viable option. In practice, that may not be the case.
Sunday may have just been a bad day, and the level of competition Chandler faced was much higher than Beasley saw on Tuesday, but that 90th minute mistake should never happen. Being so far out of position on Turkey's 61st minute chance may have been a problem, too. And those weren't the only issues on the left side of the U.S.'s defense.

UNC: Twitter, Facebook no place to mess around
Aug 31, 2010, 2:07 AM EST
Following North Carolina players like John Henson, Dexter Strickland or Harrison Barnes on Twitter? You're not the only one.
Coaches and school administrators will be monitoring players' tweets this season in accordance with a new policy in the student athlete handbook, the Raleigh News & Observer reports. For that, you can thank Tar Heels defensive end Marvin Austin (he posted more than 2,400 updates before his account was closed down), though pretty much every school plays Big Brother when it comes to what their athletes put online.
From the handbook: "each team must identify at least one coach or administrator who is responsible for having access to and regularly monitor the content of team members' social networking sites and postings."
If anything seems out of line, it'll be gone and the athlete could be too. That includes "disrespectful comments" and derogatory language; comments that constitute a credible emotional or physical threat; and photos that depict unlawful abuse, hazing, harassment, discrimination, drug possession or use, and any other illegal conduct, according to the paper.
Um, whoa. Have they seen what's on Twitter and Facebook? School officials and coaches could be pretty busy this year.

As a colorist at the Oscar Blandi salon for over 15 years, I consider certain things when a client (new or regular) comes in wanting to change her hair color. Although there aren't any hard rules — ultimately, you should go with the color you want — the tricky part is a lot of women don't know what that is when they read

Bar-Ilan University has decided to confer an honorary doctorate upon Malka
Puterkovsky in a special ceremony to be held on May 22. With no formal rabbinic
training, the Israeli Ms. Puterkovsky has developed into a traditional Orthodox
rabbinic leader. That is, traditional in all ways but one – she is a
woman.The traditional rabbinic leader is recognized publicly for having
acquired deep knowledge of the Talmud, as well as rabbinic responsa and
literature. Many times the leader has gained this recognition due to teaching
Torah in formal or informal educational settings, or through the publication of
writings. This recognition can be crystallized in the form of questions in
Jewish law being posed to the rabbinic leader by private individuals or even
public forums. When the responses to these questions demonstrate erudition
alongside creativity and thoughtfulness, the leader's reputation spreads
further.This is a centuries-old natural process.Malka
Puterkovsky has gone through this decades-long process.However, she is
missing one element – she has never received smicha, rabbinic ordination, which
is ordinarily the first step in the process. Due to the fact that she is a woman
the possibility never even came up. Formal traditional recognition, which
confers the qualifying title, is not a possibility in the Orthodox world for a
woman, and Puterkovsky herself does not seek it. Nevertheless, Bar-Ilan
University has determined that Puterkovsky is indeed worthy of recognition for
her life's achievements, thus bestowing upon her an honorary
doctorate.Bar-Ilan University, and its president Prof. Moshe Kaveh,
should be commended for giving recognition to a phenomenon that by and large has
gone largely unnoticed or which is even at times denied by mainstream Orthodoxy.
The phenomenon is that of serious Orthodox women learning Torah, studying Talmud
and gaining proficiency in rabbinic literature and law.The Israeli
programs of Nishmat's yoatzot halacha, Women Halachic Consultants, trained in
laws of ritual purity, and Ohr-Torah Stone's toanot rabbaniot, Rabbinical Court
Advocates, trained in Jewish divorce law and bet din practices, have contributed
learned women to Jewish society. In fact, several of these highly trained
professionals have gone on to increase their breadth of knowledge, acquiring PhD
degrees in various Judaic Studies programs in Bar- Ilan University.So,
it is not surprising that the first Israeli institution of higher learning to
acknowledge such a woman in a distinguished manner is Bar-Ilan
University.Its Department of Talmud and Jewish Oral Law has schooled and
granted PhD degrees to a number of such women in the past few years, with its
law school recently adding another female PhD in Jewish Law.Bar-Ilan's
unique combination of academic freedom and critical thinking strongly based on
Jewish tradition has allowed female scholarship in the traditional texts to
flourish.Having been a participant and observer for many decades of
women studying Torah, I can state that there is one obvious difference between
the direction of studies one overhears in a beit midrash – study hall –
populated by men to that of one filled with women. The women have a similar
acquisition of the theory, but there is an ultimate practical utilitarianism
added on. It can be compared to studying math theory alone as opposed to then
immediately continuing on to applied mathematics. This can be called the
feminine side of Talmud study.The feminine "take" continues through the
study of early-day and latter-day responsa of the rabbinic
literature.When a particular woman ultimately is recognized as being
part of the Orthodox Jewish leadership by her students and those who read her
writings, consultations and questions in Jewish law follow. At that point,
practical application of the Jewish legal thinking is natural.Well over
a decade ago, a "rabbi doctor" friend of mine told me that I must go for a PhD
degree in Talmud – for as an Orthodox woman I could not acquire the title
"rabbi" and thus no formal recognition or status. The title "Dr." in front of my
name could serve in its stead. Little did we know at the time that we stood at
the threshold of an evolutionary process where the formal rabbinic title would
prove to be not an absolute necessity.Feminine (as opposed to feminist)
Orthodox rabbinics has received its first formal recognition in the form of the
honor bestowed on Malka Puterkovsky for her life's work. Ken Yirbu – so should
we be blessed in abundance.The writer has a PhD from Bar-Ilan University
in Talmud and Jewish Oral Law, is a rabbinical court advocate and coordinator of
the Agunah and Get-Refusal Prevention Project of the Council of Young Israel
Rabbis and the Jewish Agency. She is the author of Minee Einayich MeDim'ah on
prenuptial agreements for the prevention of get refusal.

Life is not always a clear pathway. Sometimes doubts and uncertainties cloud your path. This is all a part of any journey, the road goes up and down, left and right, it's normal. Don't let your fears spoil your days, instead, dance through the mist. Trust your own heart to lead you to where you want to be.

Don't be fooled by appearances, your intuition is always bursting like the morning sun, eager to lighten your path and to see you always, dancing through the mist.

If you were to strip away all of the mundane and monotonous things you do in your day, what would you be left with? If you could see through the mad maze of busyness that you have built around you, what would you see? You would see only those that you love. You would treasure the love of your life. You would see only the things that have value to you. Most only experience this at moments of extreme trauma. You don't need such a stimulant. Look around now and appreciate the love in your life. It will help you see more clearly.

Worcester dent Gloucester's play-off hopes
April 21, 2009
Gloucester's Akapusi Qera gets to grips with Worcester's Netani Talei during their clash at Kingsholm
© Getty Images
Gloucester have it all to do to qualify for this season's Guinness Premiership play-offs after suffering a 13-6 defeat at the hands of Worcester at Kingsholm.
It was win or bust for the Cherry and Whites as, after being right up there with the Premiership leaders most of the season, two significant league defeats dropped them to sixth place before kick-off.
And, although under-pressure Gloucester coach Dean Ryan had fresh legs to call on after his side's 50-12 Anglo-Welsh Cup final hammering by Cardiff Blues on Saturday, defeat for them would mean a mountain to climb away to Wasps in five days time.
By half-time, the home side were struggling as captain Gareth Delve turned down three kickable penalties to go for touch and possible tries. It was a high risk strategy which backfired in the opening 40 minutes. Gloucester pounded Worcester in the first 10 minutes, dominating possession and preventing the visitors from exiting their own side of the pitch.
But the points would not come. Reluctantly, Delve allowed former England centre Olly Barkley to boot a penalty from 20 metres that put Gloucester 3-0 ahead. Worcester, against some tired bodies from that Twickenham disaster, held firm if not too spectacular and, when they had their chances to make inroads on Gloucester, they took them.
Fullback Willie Walker, on loan at Worcester from Gloucester, punished his own club with two penalties. And just before the interval, Gloucester found themselves 10 points behind at 13-3 when lock Greg Rawlinson secured possession, passed to number eight Netani Talei and saw big Fijian outsprint home wing Mark Foster down the touchline to score unopposed.
It did not help either that Cherry and Whites hooker Scott Lawson was sin-binned for illegally kicking the ball away from an attacking Warriors ruck but, after the break, Worcester were also reduced to 13 men when flanker Tom Wood dipped his shoulder into full-back Olly Morgan.
Gloucester looked rudderless and in need of a leader to settle them down but, despite squeezing the life out of the visiting pack in the scrums, they just could not find someone to settle them down. Barkley booted a second penalty as the attempt to get four tries bit the dust and all Gloucester wanted was the victory.
Italy international Marco Bortolami and Rawlinson found themselves the latest men in the sin-bin when they threw a couple of punches at each other. And big flanker Apo Satala nearly grabbed a first home try on 68 minutes but was just hauled into touch two metres from the line before Barkley hit the post with a penalty wide out.
Gloucester threw the kitchen sink at valiant Worcester in the final quarter but the visitors, just as they did in the reverse fixture last month, held on to the bitter end and deserved the win.
Gloucester head coach Dean Ryan insisted he was "confident" he wanted to be at the club next season after witnessing his team slump to a second morale-shattering defeat in four days.
"I'm confident I want to be here (next season). It's probably the third time in a week that I've been asked the same thing. If you want the answer of what Tom [Walkinshaw] wants, you had better ask him. I can understand the fans' frustration at not being top of the league but you are not guaranteed to be top of the league every year."
Worcester rugby director Mike Ruddock said, "We wanted to do the double over Gloucester which may sound a bit far fetched given our lowly position in the league but we fancied we could do it.
"We had to defend for long periods and our defence was magnificent. I thought Gloucester played well but just could not break us down."

Apple may need a Kleenex if iPad becomes too generic

Could the iPad become too popular for Apple's own good?
Yes, reports the Associated Press, which says that the overwhelming popularity of the tablet devices is already causing iPad to become synonymous with tablet computing device in the minds of many.
Taken too far, that could lead to Apple losing control over its trademark iPad name, experts tell AP.
It's a peril that the makers of Xerox copiers, Levi's jeans and Ban-Aids have worked hard to avoid in the past.
But not everybody succeeds. Does anybody remember when the words aspirin, zipper, thermos and escalator were proprietary trademarks. Probably not and that is the problem.
It may not be time to get out a Kleenex tissue to dry Apple's tears, yet, however.
The Cupertino company faced a similar threat with the popularity of the iPod portable music player and managed not to lose control of that trademark.
And if you want to see another successful Silicon Valley defense in the generic war, you could always Google it.
Jessica Litman, professor of copyright law at the University of Michigan Law School, told the AP: "You don't say 'Why don't I Google it' and go to Yahoo or Bing."
