Jerry Jones: Time to win is now
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones will enter this season with a sense of desperation, concerned that his current roster's window to contend for a title is closing.
Cowboys' Super Bowl window?
Jerry Jones thinks his team's window to win a Super Bowl is closing. Can the Cowboys contend with their current core?
• Cast your vote!
"Well, my window is getting shorter. Time goes by," Jones told NFL Network at the owners meetings in Atlanta. "I do feel real pressure because we do have players not only in (quarterback) Tony Romo, but (tight end) Jason Witten (and outside linebacker) DeMarcus Ware, to leave out several that are (also) in the prime of their career. And we need to strike and strike soon with those guys.
"(Coach) Jason Garrett feels exactly the same way about it and understands how urgent it is. Candidly, you're looking through rose-colored glasses if we all don't realize that now is the time to compete on the field."
The Cowboys won three Super Bowls in the 1990s, soon after Jones bought the team, but they have only one playoff victory in the last 15 seasons. They failed to reach the playoffs the last two seasons.
Jones was convinced the Cowboys were Super Bowl contenders last season until they lost to the New York Giants on New Year's Day with the NFC East title and a playoff berth at stake. Watching the Giants win the Super Bowl only reinforced Jones' belief that the Cowboys had a chance to contend for a championship this season.
Candidly, you're looking through rose-colored glasses if we all don't realize that now is the time to compete on the field." -- Cowboys owner Jerry Jones on title window
"When we see a team like the Giants come back with nine (regular) season wins and be world champion, then we know it's there for most clubs," said Jones, whose team finished 8-8 after losing four of its last five games. "That's not taking anything away from the Giants. That's just inspiring the Cowboys a little bit."
The Cowboys aggressively added to their supporting cast this offseason. They signed seven free agents, a crop headlined by $50-million cornerback Brandon Carr, and traded their top two draft picks to move up to the sixth overall pick to select LSU cornerback Morris Claiborne, the No. 2 player on Dallas' draft board.
"It's about time that we go to that next step and I think our team is going to be ready for that," Romo said last month.
Jones referred to the 2011 season as perhaps the most disappointing of his ownership tenure in the wake of that loss at Met Life Stadium, a point he reiterated during his Tuesday interview with the NFL Network.
"We have experienced at least a couple of the most disappointing seasons that I've ever had because we had great play from Tony and we still didn't get it done," Jones said. "What we've got to do is, while we've still got him on the job, we've got to come with the rest of it and position us to better compete for a Super Bowl. I have a lot of confidence in Tony."

Don't Take Him For Granted
January 28th, 2007 by Mike Edelman
If I told you a story about a Red Sox slugger who asked to be traded because he felt victimized by the Boston media, who would you think I was talking about? I'll give you a clue, it's not Manny Ramirez.
It's arguably the greatest hitter of all time - Ted Williams. In 1940, Williams was the most hated athlete in all of Boston. You'd be hard pressed to find too many people that remember him that way though. Perhaps that's because it would be equally hard to blame Williams for the media fiasco that lead to his reputation. The winter before the 1940 season, Ted William's parents decided to become divorced. Williams, obviously hurt, decided to spend the offseason in Minnesota instead of at home in San Diego.
He returned to Boston for the 1940 season, still upset by the happenings of the winter. He then got off to a slow start at the plate, in what was his second season in the majors, and the press attacked him for it. Among other things, the papers blamed his slump on psychological issues that could be traced back to a bad upbringing. One paper even said that he was raised to be such a horrible person that he didn't even care about his parents. This hurt Williams who admitted himself to be a sensitive person. He was an eccentric as well. He went pigeon shooting in the outfield of Fenway Park and when he hit his 400th home run, he spat at the press box no less than 5 times as he rounded the bases.
Now, 60 years later, history appears to be repeating itself. Manny Ramirez, another one of the greatest hitters of all time, is also the most criticized member of the Red Sox. If he stays healthy in two years he'll have passed both Carl Yastrzemski and Ted Williams himself on the list of most career home runs. In 3 years he'll have passed them both in runs batted in as well.
So why is he considered one of the laziest players in the game? Is it really fair to say he's such a bad teammate? More importantly, is the bad press justified or is he simply the victim of a venomous sports media? One that's been a part of Boston as long as our grandfathers can remember.
The first part of the Manny stigma which I'd like to address is the notion that Manny's lazy. While there's quite a list of Boston sports writers who have criticized Manny for his work ethic, everything that's been said by his actual teammates seem to indicate the opposite. Dan Shaughnessy and Gordon Edes don't see how Manny prepares for games, his teammates do. When Shaughnessy criticized Manny last year for coming late to Spring Training, many of his teammates were quick to defend him. Former Red Sox pitcher, Bronson Arroyo claimed that, "everybody understands Manny. He's a hard worker. He's in the gym every day in the offseason."
And Curt Schilling, not exactly known for being an the easy teammate to get along with, agreed with Arroyo. Schilling chimed in, "one thing Manny always does is put his time and effort into getting ready, I'm not worried about that. Once it's April 3 and he's healthy, we'll be fine. Manny's one of those guys who if he didn't show up for Spring Training, I'd still know he'd be ready for the season when the season started."
Manny does in fact spend quite a bit of time preparing for games both before and during the season. His teammates have also attested to how he can be found regularly in the batting cages. Even sports writers are familiar with the way he prepares for certain pitchers. Most hitters watch video of the pitchers they'll face but Manny takes it to another level. He watches video of all the relief pitchers as well. That way he can sure that when the game's on the line he'll have a pretty good idea of what pitches are coming.
Manny's teammates were so upset when he was criticized last Spring Training that they took even further steps to protect him. Pitchers Curt Schilling and David Wells refused to talk to Dan Shaughnessy and even advised younger players like Jonathan Papelbon to follow suit. When She Hillenbrand came up to the majors in 2001, he had nothing but good things to say about Manny as well. According to Hillenbrand, Manny really took him under his wing. He went out of his way making the young player feel comfortable, even going as far as to buy him meals and clothes.
If you payed close attention to the games last year you could see Manny taking a similar role with other young players. He was often shown on camera while talking hitting with Kevin Youkilis. Perhaps Manny even helped Youkilis have such a successful 2006 campaign. The effect that former Red Sox hitting coach Ron Jackson had on hitters new to the Red Sox has been widely discussed. Many of the players who improved their hitting with the Red Sox however were also close with Manny Ramirez. Shea Hillenbrand, Kevin Millar, David Ortiz were all close with Manny and they all improved once they became his teammate. Perhaps that is why his teammates defend him so loyally. Or maybe it's because they know Manny's place in the history books.
So many lessons can be taken from those who came before us, especially in a city as rich with history as Boston. On Tremont Street there's a cemetery called the Granary Burying Ground. It's there that Samuel Adams, John Hancock, Paul Revere and even Crispus Attackus are buried. For those unfamiliar with him, Crispus Attackus is the most famous victim of the Boston Massacre. Many consider him to be the first ever African-American to give his life for American freedom.
There is an epitaph in the Granary Burying Ground that has written on it one of the more haunting and relevant things that I have ever read. On it are the words, "Remember, friend, as you pass by/As you are now, so once was I/As I am now, so you will be/Prepare for death and follow me." Those words carry a message that is relevant to much more than death.
Just as our ancestors before us have watched legends such as Jimmie Foxx, Ted Williams, Carl Yastrzemski, Carlton Fisk and Wade Boggs, we too are watching legends in our own time. We should all be paying extra careful attention to Manny Ramirez. That's because when our children ask about Red Sox players of the past, more than anyone else they're likely to ask about him.
Regardless of what some may think of him now, when his plaque goes up in Cooperstown, the stigma surrounding his name will be based on his play and nothing else. Of all the players who currently don the Boston uniform, we should taken him for granted the least. We're lucky that we have him for at least a little longer.

I couldn't agree more with the fact that Manny is often under appreciated for his on field ability. He is one of the best right handed hitters of our generation and one of the most consistent hitters and run producers in baseball history.
He will be a Hall of Famer and wearing a Red Sox cap. If he retires in a Red Sox uniform (which is unlikely unless he retires after his current contract as a still productive player), could we see 24 posted in the right field stands?
I just wish that Manny would not create some of the controversy that surrounds him. At least those personality quirks will leave a little more color on his legacy.
on 29 Jan 2007 at 2:53 pm Mike Edelman
I think his production and the amount of games he usually plays for us in a season seem to suggest that he actually is hard working and believe it or not, even reliable. No numbers however could define what he means to the Red Sox. It will be great to see him go into the hall, regardless of whether 24 is ever put up in right field.

Mark Chapter 16
|Next Book >>>
Viewing the Standard King James Version. Switch to the 1611 KJV Mark Chapter 16 or view a Mark 16 parallel comparison.
1 And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him.
2 And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun.
3 And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre?
4 And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very great.
5 And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted.
6 And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him.
7 But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you.
8 And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulchre; for they trembled and were amazed: neither said they any thing to any man; for they were afraid.
9 Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils.
10 And she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept.
11 And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her, believed not.
12 After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked, and went into the country.
13 And they went and told it unto the residue: neither believed they them.
14 Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen.
15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.

Mark Chapter 16 Bible commentary...
Christ's resurrection made known the women. (1-8) Christ appears to Mary Magdalene and other disciples. (9-13) His commission to the apostles. (14-18) Christ's ascension. (19,20)1-8 Nicodemus brought a large quantity of spices, but these good women did not think that enough. The respect others show to Christ, should not hinder us from showing our respect. And those who are carried by holy zeal, to seek Christ diligently, will find the difficulties in their way speedily vanish. When we put ourselves to trouble and expense, from love to Christ, we shall be accepted, though our endeavours are not successful. The sight of the angel might justly have encouraged them, but they were affrighted. Thus many times that which should be matter of comfort to us, through our own mistake, proves a terror to us. He was crucified, but he is glorified. He is risen, he is not here, not dead, but alive again; hereafter you will see him, but you may here see the place where he was laid. Thus seasonable comforts will be sent to those that lament after the Lord Jesus. Peter is particularly named, Tell Peter; it will be most welcome to him, for he is in sorrow for sin. A sight of Christ will be very welcome to a true penitent, and a true penitent is very welcome to a sight of Christ. The men ran with all the haste they could to the disciples; but disquieting fears often hinder us from doing that service to Christ and to the souls of men, which, if faith and the joy of faith were strong, we might do.
9-13 Better news cannot be brought to disciples in tears, than to tell them of Christ's resurrection. And we should study to comfort disciples that are mourners, by telling them whatever we have seen of Christ. It was a wise providence that the proofs of Christ's resurrection were given gradually, and admitted cautiously, that the assurance with which the apostles preached this doctrine afterwards might the more satisfy. Yet how slowly do we admit the consolations which the word of God holds forth! Therefore while Christ comforts his people, he often sees it needful to rebuke and correct them for hardness of heart in distrusting his promise, as well as in not obeying his holy precepts.
14-18 The evidences of the truth of the gospel are so full, that those who receive it not, may justly be upbraided with their unbelief. Our blessed Lord renewed his choice of the eleven as his apostles, and commissioned them to go into all the world, to preach his gospel to every creature. Only he that is a true Christian shall be saved through Christ. Simon Magus professed to believe, and was baptized, yet he was declared to be in the bonds of iniquity: see his history in #Ac 8:13-25|. Doubtless this is a solemn declaration of that true faith which receives Christ in all his characters and offices, and for all the purposes of salvation, and which produces its right effect on the heart and life; not a mere assent, which is a dead faith, and cannot profit. The commission of Christ's ministers extends to every creature throughout the world, and the declarations of the gospel contain not only truths, encouragements, and precepts, but also most awful warnings. Observe what power the apostles should be endued with, for confirming the doctrine they were to preach. These were miracles to confirm the truth of the gospel, and means of spreading the gospel among nations that had not heard it.
19,20 After the Lord had spoken he went up into heaven. Sitting is a posture of rest, he had finished his work; and a posture of rule, he took possession of his kingdom. He sat at the right hand of God, which denotes his sovereign dignity and universal power. Whatever God does concerning us, gives to us, or accepts from us, it is by his Son. Now he is glorified with the glory he had before the world. The apostles went forth, and preached every where, far and near. Though the doctrine they preached was spiritual and heavenly, and directly contrary to the spirit and temper of the world; though it met with much opposition, and was wholly destitute of all worldly supports and advantages; yet in a few years the sound went forth unto the ends of the earth. Christ's ministers do not now need to work miracles to prove their message; the Scriptures are proved to be of Divine origin, and this renders those without excuse who reject or neglect them. The effects of the gospel, when faithfully preached, and truly believed, in changing the tempers and characters of mankind, form a constant proof, a miraculous proof, that the gospel is the power of God unto salvation, of all who believe.

James's Mark Chapter 16 comment on 10/23/2014, 2:12pm...
Mark 16 9thru20 most certainly does belong in the Bible. If you can 't trust one word, what makes you think you can trust the rest. What if this gospel stopped with verse 8 like you say? Do you think God would end a gospel which is GOOD NEWS with FOR THEY WERE AFRAID. God hath not given us the spirit of fear!!! Also the book of Mark has 678 verses in it. Omit the last 12 like you say and that leaves 666 verses which is the mark of the beast see Rev 13 16 18. This so called correction just happens to be in the book of MARK. Looks like the Lord is showing the MARK on those who take away from HIS living words Rev 22 vs19. I assume you would like to TAKE that verse as well.
David's Mark Chapter 16 comment about verse 18 on 10/13/2014, 8:32am...
The scripture is very relevant especially in our daily context today. Yes ther serpent there is representative of the devil cos in most case in the Bible God had use snakes to demonstrate evil and it literally mean that when evil looms God will protect His elect but people must Not go about playing with snakes and be quoting mk 16 18. The poison part is still the same thing if u can recall most cases of poison 2day happen without the person being poisonned knowing so in such a case God will alway intervene for His elect if they are poisoned unconsciously that is one dimention of it but then, if one recall how Elisha in the 2kings ate poison food and nothing happen to Him so it tells us that it all depend on your personal relationship with God!!!
Ahayah\'s servant's Mark Chapter 16 comment about verse 9 on 10/05/2014, 12:47am...
These writings from Mark 16 9 20 are not written by Mark himself. It was inserted in a later time by Catholic Bishops and the beginning of Sun worship on the first day of the week to give validation to their idolatry and mixing in pagan worship with the children of Israel 's Divine scripture. Bringing in cults of raising serpents, as it is in the South to tempt the Most High. As the Council of Nicea shows, which can be read in the History of the First Council of Nice A World 's Christian Convention A.D. 325 With a Life of Constantine book and other sources. Further, to show the falsehoods of Mark 16 9 20, look up the Greek for first day of the week, G3391 G4521. Mia sabbatan from Matthew 28 1 is the correct one while pr 333 ton from Mark 16 9 20 is the deceit that was added later. The new day begins when the Sun goes down, read Genesis 1. Another note, sabbatan is interchangeable with Sabbath and the seventh day of the week, so this is still ON the sabbath going towards Sunday in the final 12 hours before the new day began when the Sun goes down, exposing the lie that Christ rose on Sunday and Sun worship. Last note, the account of the woman who ran and only told Simon Peter and no one else being consistent unlike Mark 16 9 20 where others were told. It is this inconsistent and adding of those who that will get Revelations 22 19.

Paralympics: Ukraine consider Sochi boycott
The president of Ukraine's Paralympic Committee fought back tears as he cast doubt on his country's participation in the Winter Paralympics in Sochi.
Valeriy Suskevich revealed a decision would be announced on Friday on whether Ukraine would take part in the Games or not, insisting military invention was incompatible with the ideals of the Paralympic movement.
The build-up to the Paralympics, which gets under way with an opening ceremony on Friday evening, has been overshadowed by the escalating tensions between Russia and Ukraine.
The Ukraine team, which includes 23 athletes, had their official welcome ceremony in the plaza at the Alpine Village in the mountains of Rosa Khutor above Sochi on Thursday evening, but it appeared to end early.
After the national anthem, team members marched the one hundred or so yards back to the athletes' accommodation, chanting as one: "Peace for Ukraine".
Suskevich said: "Almost all of my sportsmen are very nervous, very afraid about their country, about their future life in my country.
"Today for more than two hours I talked together with not only my sportsmen, but also doctors, trainers and managers.
"Many are talking about competing and not competing, about life in Ukraine, about the world, Europe and about Sochi, about the Russian people and the Ukrainian people. And many are talking about peace in our country.
"Tomorrow I will say more about the situation around the Ukraine team in this Paralympic Games.
"This Paralympic Games is a unique situation. Never before in the history of the Paralympic movement was there a situation like this.
"My sportsmen dream about participating, but not without the Ukrainian people. The national team represents the Ukrainian people, it's not separate.
"For us it's very important be together with our people.
"The Paralympic movement is the achievement of mankind, the greatest achievement. It's not possible that this achievement can be combined with military (action), with war."
Suskevich remained calm and dignified throughout numerous interviews, including an impromptu press conference in front of the gates to the athletes' residence. Flanked by the Ukraine team, he was so overcome at one point that he had to stop mid-answer, his head shaking with emotion.
He thanked the organisers for a "great ceremony", but said highlighting the need for peace was the priority.
He said finding a peaceful resolution to the developing crisis was key to whether his team would compete, adding that he "dreamed of good news", but did not "await" it.
"Peace for my country is the foundation for the decision concerning the participation of Ukraine in the Paralympic Games," Suskevich said.
Asked if he was afraid there would not be peace, he replied: "Yes, I'm afraid."
Suskevich said he would meet with his team, as well as members of the Russian Paralympic Committee and the International Paralympic Committee to decide on what course of action to take.
The Ukrainian Committee have given the IPC the name of a flag bearer for the opening ceremony and completed all the administration necessary to take part in the event.
A decision to boycott would certainly not be taken lightly, with Ukraine boasting a proud Paralympic record. They won 19 medals in Vancouver four years ago, including five golds.
The welcome ceremony for the Great Britain team took place a couple of hours before Ukraine's.
Prime Minister David Cameron has already announced British ministers are boycotting the Paralympics over Russia's decision to take military action in Ukraine, while the United States too are not sending a presidential delegation.
Tensions are highest in the Crimea region, which lies 294 miles north-west of Sochi.
Tim Hollingsworth, the chief executive of the British Paralympic Association, said the team were "very comfortable" with the environment they were in.
"When and if our contacts with the embassy or the Foreign Office suggest that the situation is changing and we need to react to that then that's when we react to it, but until then it's a Games environment," he said.
"We've kept a close dialogue coming into these Games and we'll maintain that through."

Last year, Sally Ordile was like many a South Floridian, a transplant from the north, in her case from New York City to Boynton Beach. She had been practicing art a scant half a dozen years, and then something remarkable happened: At age 62, she was discovered. Palm Beach Institute of Contemporary Art's director, Michael Rush, and PBICA Assistant Curator Jody Servon included the budding artist in their flashy "Sculpture Now" show, which reasserted the relevance of contemporary sculpture. Ordile was the only South Florida-based artist represented in the show, a detail especially notable given her choice of medium. Although Ordile also produces prints and encaustic, her most powerful work takes advantage of things most South Florida homeowners consider an annoyance: those bulky stalks and husks that peel off from the larger varieties of palms, littering lawns and streets and occasionally inflicting damage on cars. In Ordile's hands, they become things of beauty, smoothed and painted and adorned with bits of fabric and other items. No other area artist has so thoroughly integrated the readily available materials of her adopted home into her art with such force and originality.

The Federal Trade Commission has promulgated rules requiring physicians to implement written policies to help prevent identity theft. Any physician's office that extends, renews or continues credit for a patient (i.e.. any practice that bills patients for services rendered – is subject to the Red Flag Rules. Even if you first bill an insurance carrier, if you ultimately bill a patient for any portion of a bill, you are considered a creditor subject to the Rules. The Rules will be enforced beginning on May 1, 2009.
In order to comply with the Rules you must develop a program that allows you to:
Your program must spell out how your program will be administered, and must be appropriate to the size and complexity of your practice. It must be approved by your Board of Directors, or if your practice does not have a Board, by a senior employee. The healthcare law firm of Kern Augustine Conroy & Schoppmann, P.C. has a template available on its website to assist you in developing your own program. It can be found at: http://www.drlaw.com/publications/Red_Flag_Rules_Template1.pdf.
If you engage another person or entity to perform services on your covered accounts (a service provider), you must also take steps to ensure that their activities are conducted using a reasonable identity theft program. This could be done through a written contract with the service provider or by amending an existing HIPAA Business Associate Agreement.
These new Red Flag Rules place yet another burden on medical practices, many of which are already struggling to survive under increased regulatory pressure, reduced reimbursement and increased costs. Hopefully this guide, and the template available through Kern Augustine Conroy & Schoppmann, P.C. will assist physicians in reducing this new burden.

Doctor Glenn Saxe, chairman of the Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at NYU, says the most important thing parents can do after something bad happens is provide reassurance.
-It's also important to tell them they're going to be okay, as well as the people who are close to them.
-Tell them that you are doing everything you can to keep them safe, but Saxe says don't give false assurances. Be real and truthful.
-He also suggests to wait until they are older if you can. Around 7 years old and up is an appropriate age.
-Only get into the "tough topics" if they bring it up first.

Portable NoteCase Pro (formerly Portable Notecase) 3.8.9
Portability advantages
As there is no setup pack involved, you can save the app directory to any part of the hard disk and just click the EXE file to run.
Another possibility is to save NoteCase to a USB flash disk or similar storage unit, in order to run it on any PC with minimum effort and no previous installers.
More importantly, the tool does not change Windows registry settings, nor create additional files on the disk without your approval.
Straightforward interface
The GUI is not particularly attractive, as NoteCase prefers a classical look and structure, enabling users to immediately dive into its feature-set.
Comments can be written by creating nodes and connecting them to child nodes, which basically represents the tool's category and subcategory system for content management.
Customize text settings
Several text formatting options are supported. Apart from the traditional cut, copy, paste, undo and redo actions, users can emphasize selected text (bold, italic, underline, strikethrough), change the encoding method and reading order, customize the text and background colors, as well as insert hyperlinks, pictures (PNG, JPG or GIF) and file attachments. A search function is available as well.
Manage nodes and save projects
Meanwhile, nodes can be rearranged in the list, edited, moved, renamed and removed, marked as completed, as well as sorted in ascending or descending order (by root or children nodes). Projects can be saved to NoteCase-formatted files, as regular or password-protected documents (NCD or NCE format), as well as exported to HTML format (with or without tables of contents).
Hotkeys are supported for most commands and they can be turned into anything else. It is possible to switch to full screen mode, wrap words, change the viewing mode by disabling the comment
area, nodes section or both, count all words automatically, and enter full screen mode.
Evaluation and conclusion
The tool is light on the system resources, using low CPU and RAM. We have not come across any stability issues throughout our evaluation. Although it's not particularly attractive and its options are tangled, NoteCase offers a decent set of features for taking notes, including some configuration settings for advanced usage.

In a Clairol-commissioned study, researchers from Nottingham Trent University found those who color their hair a lighter hue experience confidence boosts and feel less inhibited. About half reported feeling more "impulsive, sexually exciting, rebellious, creative, attractive and able to deal with criticism" after a dye job. About 80 percent chose a blonde shade.
While stereotypes about blondes having more fun have persisted for decades, research is mixed on whether or not gentlemen really prefer them. In a 1985 study, New York University scientists found no hair color bias when measuring how often men stopped to help female pedestrians, half of whom were blonde and half of whom were brunette.
But a 2007 article in "Psychology Today" pointed to evolutionary logic behind men wanting to date Cameron Diaz lookalikes. Many people, the authors said, have blonde hair as children, but then become brunettes in adulthood. Men seeking out blondes may be "unconsciously attempting to mate with younger (and hence, on average, healthier and more fecund) women." Whoa.
Tell us: Do you prefer being blonde?
Going blonde can be fun -- or it can be a pain in the butt. Root touch-ups! Bleach smell! But that's nothing compared to these bizarre beauty treatments. Click the pictures below to see some weird ways to get gorgeous.

I have blonde hair; my natural hair color is dark brown. I've been a blonde for a bout three years now and I love it; I've thought about going back to my natural ahri color but it just doesnt look as good on me. I also notice blondes DO have more fun :D plus it makes you look alot tanner than dark hair; and its gourgeous during the fall and spring.

I believe it's true that men prefer blondes because they do equate blondes with youth AND why men like shaved vaginas for the same reason. It's a little sick that women allow men to be freaks which is why there is so much paedophilia.

This is one of the dumbest wastes of scientific money ever spent. While people die of cancer, money is wasted on studying hair color. There are two ways to look at this highly "scientific" study. Changes in appearance can cause a boost in confidence, so that can help explain the findings. However, hair color doesn't seem likely to cause a drastic change in behavior. It's more likely that the women acted like this even BEFORE dying their hair blond. Therefore, dying their hair drastically lighter was a result of their wild and outgoing personality. The hair didn't create their personality, their personality caused them to dye their hair. As for the evolutionary claim, once again another waste of money going towards moron "scientists." Most of the world is not blond, nor are they born blond. I'm sure entire cultures and countries where blond is pratically non-existant don't think blonds of another culture are more beautfiul than the brunettes of their own culture. Blond hair was a genetic mutation, as was blue eyes. Are blonds actually healthier or more fertile than brunettes? Yeah, didn't think so. Besides, dying your hair blond would be evolutionarily bad since you are fooling your mate and not representing who you really are! Not to mention, studies actually show that men tend to prefer brunettes when choosing a wife, and billionaire men are overwhelmingly married to brunettes.

Blondes are all different from each other as to any other color of hair. Changing a look to anything can boost one's confidence if they feel better than before and think they look better.
There are blondes who are not confident, and some who are.
There are blondes who are not sexual, and some who are.
There are blondes who all don't have the same mind, so was the editor blonde?

I think you are so right. Its a persons personality not there hair color that determines how much fun they have/are. Its a ridiculous notion that blondes have more fun,nonsense. I've dated blondes,brunettes and redheads,the only difference in them was the blondes were easier to get into bed. Please dont take that the wrong way. But it was the truth,I can only speak of my own personal experiences. And everyones experiences are different.

Ok personally, I do dye my hair usually light brown with blonde highlights and sometimes just straight pale blonde but I do it for me. I am in a happy relationship but I've done it for me ever since I started dying my hair. Don't get me wrong I like it when I get looks, it builds my confidence but I think that has to do with the way I carry myself all together not just the color I dye my hair. So I guess what I'm saying is if you want to be more fun than be more fun don't make your hair do it for you.

I was originally dark brown but always knew I was a blonde: Now, I am a double process blonde. I tried blonde when I was young and I have bleached and toned my hair light delicate blonde for the last 15 years. If I've one life let me live it as a blonde is me. I am a blonde and will be blonde until I die! Do what makes you be your best: For me I am best as a blonde. Agree blonde until I die.

So.....Why'd you "waste" your time on replying to it, then??? Obviously, from all the many responses AOL got on this subject, it wasn't a waste of time to them!! Why don't you go to "MY SPACE" and take up somebody else's "space", instead of "wasting" your time responding to the so-called "WASTE", and go "waste" your time on something you feel is worth your "ATTENTION".....or the "LACK THEREOF"!!!

Does you saying you are a so-called "Beauty Consultant" make you a so-called "Beauty Consultant"??? I could say I'm an airplane pilot, but if I climb into a 747 and got in the cock pit, you better say your prayers, cause this will probably be your last flight!!! I am in my late forties, have very dark brown hair, and the vast majority of the people I meet, say I do NOT look my age. It's not your hair that ages you MS. BS....but, your SKIN.....SOOOOO if you were really the Beauty Consultant you say you are and not the BS-er, you would know that, now wouldn't you??? Get your facts straight lady!!! As long as my skin looks as good as it does, I'll wear my hair dark and shiny and keep on getting the compliments!!! Oh....and by the way, I wear it straight most of the time, with straight bangs, and oh yeah baby.......I got men that are young enough to be my sons, looking at me, and they ain't laughing, either! Because, most of the time, they want to get to know me better! But......sorreeee, I am married, (HAPPILY).....and I want to stay that way, and my husband loves my hair and my skin!!! Better take a refresher course on that one chicky......musta been asleep during that class, or you missed it altogether!

Guide to the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of conditions from A to Z.
To protect the mouth and teeth from serious injury, a mouthguard, usually a flexible piece of plastic that fits into the mouth, should be worn during all recreational and athletic activities--especially activities where there is contact or potential contact with another person, piece of equipment, or the ground. In particular, mouthguards should be worn during the following sports:
Field hockey
Ice hockey
Martial arts
Some of these sports require the use of a mouthguard at the amateur level.
Many recreational activities such as skateboarding and bicycling also pose a risk of injuring the mouth and teeth. Exercise caution during these activities.
Injuries to the teeth, mouth, and head may include the following, many of which could be prevented with proper and consistent use of a mouthguard:
Dislodged or knocked out tooth/teeth
Broken or chipped tooth
Bitten or lacerated tongue and/or lip
Objects caught/lodged between the teeth
Jaw fracture
Jaw collision--the lower jaw gets jammed into the upper jaw
There are several types of mouthguards that can be used. The following are three of the most common types:
Pre-made mouthguards
One type is already made and can be found in most sports stores. There are different types and brands. Choose the one that fits best and is most comfortable.
Boil and Bite. Available at sporting good stores, these mouthguards are softened in hot water, then adapted to the mouth while still soft.
Custom-made mouthguards
Your child's dentist can make a mouthguard specifically for your child. These may be more expensive, but usually are more comfortable for the child.
Consult your child's dentist regarding the best type of mouthguard to use.

Games (Coach): 461
Leigh Matthews is a legend in the Australian Football Hall of Fame, an eight-time best and fairest winner, four-time premiership player & four-time premiership coach, a premiership captain... it is a record without parallel. As a player for Hawthorn from 1969-85, he was a member of four premiership sides and was premiership captain in 1983.
He stepped into the game's coaching ranks as Collingwood's coach from 1986-65, recording five finals appearances and in 1990 took the club to its first premiership since 1958.
The Brisbane Lions appointed Matthews as the senior coach in 1999 and he took the Lions to three flags in succession (2001-2003), creating arguably one of the finest teams in the modern era.
Since stepping down as coach, Matthews has been a commentator with 3AW and Channel 7 and once again will provide insightful views on the game in 2014.

Hello everyone!
I apologize for not updating my page as much as I probably should. I've been busy. Writing as much as I do is not easy while holding down a full time day job. I wish I could retire and do nothing but write and talk with you on the internet. However, life intrudes as it usually does and I have bills to pay and groceries to buy. Unfortunately, my writing doesn't bring in enough money to retire, no matter how much I would like to do so.
I'm still working on book 1 of the Caspian Cascade, the new series that I have planned for Extasy Books. I have another new series planned for Siren Publishing, as well. It's paranormal menage and set pretty much all over the world. It would be nice to be able to travel to places to do research, but I'll have to do it from home and hope the sites I frequent on the internet are accurate. I pride myself in being as factual as possible. Writing fiction doesn't give me an excuse to make everything up.
Due to popular demand, the Paradise series will continue, though I won't be adding to it as frequently as I once did. I'm not certain I will release a book directly through Kindle. I like my editors. They find stuff that I miss and a I like it that way. Once an author edits and re-edits a story, we know what we want it to say. Sometimes we see what we want it to say instead of what it really says. That's where editors and proofreaders come in. I wouldn't have editors with kindle direct and I know I am not perfect.
Book 3 of the Taos Wolven Mates is done and up at Bookstrand.com. I might add more to that series at a later date, but then again, I might not. It's been fun, but I have so many other ideas and I'm having a difficult time keeping up with them.
I'm still adding to Gideon's Angel which is the working title for the 4th book of The Chosen series. I'll finish the Alateation one of these days. I'd like to finish it this summer, but I tend to write too much and ignore family members when I try to write too much too soon. Keep an eye out for my new releases. The Caspian Cascade will have male cat shifters and some of them will be scarred inside and out.
I'm planning to not only go to the 11th Annual Lori Foster Reader Author Get Together next June 4-7, 2015, I'm also planning to go to Romancing the Capital that is being held April 17th and 18th, 2015 in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. I hope to see everyone at one of those events. Who knows? I might even get to go to Hot Mojave Knights in October, as well. I have ruled nothing out. I plan to get myself out there as much as possible. I would love to meet each and every one of you.
Until the next time…I'll see you on the net!
I love to hear from my readers. Please don't hesitate to contact me but please remember to add your email address in the body of the message. Otherwise, I may not be able to reply to you. I answer all of my emails personally and try to do it in a timely manner. Due to technical difficulties my newsletter sign up is offline.

Tigers Like It Hot
Caspian Cascade Series – Book 1
By Tianna Xander
Who knew shape shifters exist and they adore curvy, full-figured women?
When Jessi decides to leave her home town for the second time, she and her best friend Kelly devise a plan. They've researched six different towns, they've drawn the orders of their visits from a hat and they're determined to stick to the new path they've set out for themselves.
When Gareth and Mac set out in search of a mate, they didn't expect company in the form of two unwanted tag-along friends, and they certainly didn't expect their sort of well-laid plans to grind to a screeching halt in a town they had never even heard of before.
How did they all end up in the town dubbed Halloween town for the week when none of them had even planned to stop there for anything more than lunch?
* * * *
A Faire in Paradise
Paradise Series – Book 17
By Tianna Xander
What's going on in Paradise? Apparently, shape shifters are real and they're attracted to middle-aged plus-sized women.
At least that's what Alexa finds when she gets to Paradise. She doesn't expect to find her friend Milla there, happily dating two men. It doesn't help matters when she finds out that all of the single guys are gorgeous and the town motto is to care for and protect all women and children. In fact, the whole thing sounds too good to be true.
When the townsfolk suddenly start shifting into wild animals in front of her, Alexa is certain she's gone mad. Is she strong enough to stay in Paradise with its strange secrets and the two hot guys she's falling for who insist she is their mate?
* * * *
Visions of Paradise
Paradise Series – Book 16
By Tianna Xander
Can Milla finally settle down and have a family of her own or will the carnival be her life…forever?
Milla leaves the carnival where she made her living for twenty years, with visions of finding the perfect town where she could make a new life for herself. At forty-five years old, it's too late to hope for children, but happiness is still within her reach.
However, the owner of the carnival doesn't want to lose his best fortuneteller. When he and his carnival follow Milla to Paradise, he discovers that his people aren't the only ones with secrets.
Being bond mates never crossed Jonas' and Mel's minds. Hell, they don't even like each other and barely get along. However, when they find a woman frightened and alone, they put their differences aside to help her secure the most basic of human, or shifter, rights—the freedom to choose.

Knowing what to do in a tornado key to survivingMonday, April 28th, 2014
The long awaited spring weather brings a renewed threat to northwest Ohio; tornado season is upon us.
Yesterday the lethality of tornado season was realized as powerful storms raged through parts of the Midwest and southern U.S. states killing 17 people and causing devastating destruction to homes and businesses. Ohio was fortunately spared the carnage of yesterday's storms. In June of 2010, however, severe weather ravaged several northwest Ohio and southeast Michigan communities causing loss of life and property.
To notify you when Lucas County is under a tornado warning, the outdoor public address will activate and sound an alarm and provide a tornado warning message. The university also will send a UT Alert text message during a tornado warning and activate internal notification in buildings where available. Once a tornado warning is issued, university procedure requires all persons to stop regular activities and immediately seek shelter in a tornado safe waiting area. The chances of surviving a tornado significantly increase if safer shelter can be found.
All buildings have areas designated as safer during a tornado. The locations are usually ground floor or basement areas absent of windows and are identified by a picture of a twister on a placard. More information about what to do in a tornado as well as the university procedure for severe weather/tornado response and a list of tornado safe waiting areas can be found at: http://www.utoledo.edu/depts/emergency/WhatToDo/WTD_Weather.html

SACK MORE BRITS, Symantec UK told by US supremos - sources
Symantec UK bosses must redraft their master plan to layoff Brit workers - after their first proposal was rejected by the US top brass for not cutting far enough, sources claim. As we reported a week ago, up to 1,700 employees worldwide - eight per cent of the total workforce - are expected to get the chop during June and July …
It will need approval ...
... first by the UK Sovietlike Socialistic Hegemony of Senior Management Classes.
There are three usual membership cohorts: fully publicly funded, fully privately funded and mish-mash of each.
The branch one is elevated into depends upon the corporation one belongs to.
(Recent bad news for goggle and Apple indicates that these organisations are not represented on UKSSHSMC)
Dear Symantec
F**k Off and go back to that dark deep chasm from whence you came.
I still bear scars on my very soul from the pain of having to remove Symantec's crudware from my machine. I think nuking the disk from space did it
Symantec's done more for PC sales than a new version of Windows ever has
I often wondered if PC makers gave backhanders to Symantec for making fast machines slower and slower until the poor user decided (prematurely) that it was time to upgrade!
Winfax Pro
I first came across Symantec when I bought that software from them, donkeys years ago. It was a tiny company then. Now it's a major multinational specialising, as my fellow honourable commentators have intimated, in an antivirus software application which is noted for one particular property (see above). The corporation has grown so big, it thinks nothing of axing 1,700 jobs, which is the equivalent of the working population of a small town...It's a bit overwhelming.
Re: Winfax Pro
Symantec didn't write Winfax - they bought Delrina.
Sadly, I have nothing further to add to this story.
And we can expect to see the cost of their bloatware to come down in light of their cost reductions???

Big data analytics is where advanced analytic techniques operate on big data sets—one of the most profound trends in business intelligence today. Using advanced analytics, businesses can study big data to understand the current state of the business and track still-evolving aspects such as customer behavior. This empowers users to explore granular details of business operations and customer interactions that seldom find their way into a data warehouse or standard report.
Big data analytics is the intersection of two technical entities that have come together. First, there's big data for massive amounts of detailed information. Second, there's advanced analytics, which can include predictive analytics, data mining, statistics, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, and so on. Put them together and you get big data analytics, the hottest new practice in BI.
A new flood of user organizations is commencing or expanding solutions for analytics with big data. To supply the demand, vendors have recently released numerous new products and functions, specifically for advanced forms of analytics (beyond OLAP and reporting) and analytic databases that can manage big data. This research report drills into all the aspects of big data analytics mentioned here to give users and their business sponsors a solid background for big data analytics, including business and technology drivers, successful business use cases, and common technology enablers. The report also uses survey data to project the future of the most common tool types, features, and functions associated with big data analytics, so users can apply this information to planning their own programs and technology stacks for big data analytics.
Big Data Analytics will accelerate your understanding of the many new tools and techniques that have emerged for analytics with big data in recent years. Download the full, 40-page TDWI Best Practices Report to get the complete analysis.

1 more dinner, recommendations?
First timers, spending 3 nights in Vegas next week. We have reservations at é by José Andrés, Lotus of Siam, and are looking for 1 more solid choice. We have a reservation at Sage, but not 100% sold on it yet. We considered Carnevino, or another steakhouse, but the highly mixed reviews made it hard to choose one. We have a car, and budget isn't really an issue, but trying to keep it fairly reasonable. Recommendations are welcome. Also, lunch spots are welcome as well! (we're thinking Mon Ami Gabi, brunch at Bouchon, or some cheap stuff like In & Out and Cipriottis) Thanks!
Working backwards.....let me suggest the food court at NY/NY Hotel & Casino for lunch. Unless you have a massive hangover, lunch at Capriotti's or In & Out is really not worth the $$$....At NY/NY, you have an excellent deli with pretty good pastrami on rye, a solid Tex-Mex with outstanding salsa and chips, decent fried fish & chips, and solid angus burgers...the only part of the food court that I would skip is the pizza (not good)...My first choice would be a restaurant lunch, like Mon Ami Gabi; but if you are leaning towards something like In & Out, then I would do the food court before fastfood takeout.
I am not as big a fan of Andres' place as some are....if you are looking for "reasonable," I think that there are better quality/value combinations that can be found. As for a steakhouse, I would choose Prime always; and put SW at the Wynn in 2nd place. Off the Strip, Del Frisco is always a good choice.
re: VegasGourmet
Prime and SW are definitely a few of my considerations, but It seems as though there's not a consensus on THE steakhouse to go to, which makes it really difficult to choose. We're staying in the Palazzo, and I hear Carnevino has the best steak in Vegas, which would be very convenient, but most reviews say everything else about Carnevino is meh. Sage sounded like a fun and pretty solid dining experience. The Signature Tasting Menu ($89) was probably the way we'd go, with the Wagyu supplement, and probably the Foie Gras Brulee as well. But I'm still undecided!
re: timEats7
There's no novelty to In-N-Out. It's a consistently good and cheap fast food burger chain with a only a handful of items on the menu. It has it's detractors and many who say they just don't "get it." They'll cite more upscale burger places and East Coast joints like Five Guys or Shake Shake. (I predict this post will elicit some of those responses...)
It's worth a try so you can form your own opinion. A good order for a first-timer would be a Double-Double Animal-Style with an order of fries and your choice of soft drink or shake. This is the type of meal where iced tea, lemonade, or water just don't cut it. Many people complain about the fries being sub-par. To that, I suggest getting an order of fries well-done and comparing it with a regular order, and dipping them in Spread (just ask for it) and not regular ketchup.
Like many visitors, chances are you won't be blown away and be left wondering what exactly is so special about In-N-Out. If that's turns out to be the case, it's okay--the millions of us who swear by it will keep them in business.
re: Ponder99
Thank you! I guess novelty was the wrong word, and I really meant "to see what it's all about". Thanks for the ordering tips
Here are a couple of links about In n Outs secret menu.
For a cheap lunch go to Ellis Island Casino for their off the menu steak special. Ellis Island micro brews their own beer and root beer. The steak special includes a twenty ounce beer or root beer, soup or salad, ten ounce top sirloin, green beans and potato or rice for $8.99. Each person ordering the steak special will need to sign up for the players club card and swipe the card at a kiosk for a voucher for the steak special. You'll get a minimum of $10 free play for signing up for the slot club.
I'll be there this month too.
I would add LA Cave at the Wynn..
Delmonicos at the Venetian...Charlie Palmers Cut off the week at Mandalay..
Drinks at Chandelier Bar at the Cosmo..
Breakfast/Brunch at Bouchon or Peppermill.
Burger Bar or Todd's PUB for happy hour.
Lotus of Siam for lunch off the menu...sublime
In and Out is a great fast food option and a double double with grilled onions and extra spread..fries blow but well done is better..iced tea is fresh brewed..
Tacos el Gordo is excellent taco shop.
Make sure you get a slice from the secret pizza on third level of Cosmo for late night munchies..
Win big and party like a rock star..
re: Beach Chick
Awesome, thanks very much! Hope you have a great time too
For the final 'solid' choice Carnevino is pricey, but very much excellent. Obviously Raku would be another contender.
In terms of affordable lunches strongly consider Fat Choy or Novecento if you want excellent pizza. Bouchon, of course, is excellent.
re: uhockey
I'm going to pass on Raku this time, just had some fantastic Japanese food in NYC, and would rather save that for a future trip. As for Carnevino... Would you choose it over Sage? Sage sounds like a favorite on this board, while Carnevino only seems to be praised for it's dry-aged steaks, and everything else falls short..
re: timEats7
My thoughts on Carnevino, with pictures: http://endoedibles.com/?p=13174
Having visited Carnevino once prior with old friends at lunch I was admittedly excited to return when the same group I'd dined with at Gordon Ramsay Steak the night prior invited me to join in on a meal that expected to trump the prior visit considerably. A large space with soaring ceilings, heavy woods, and smooth marble befitting both a Vegas Steakhouse and the Italian Chef/Restaurateur backing the venture it was at the bar that our evening began while a large table was cleared in the larger back room and with excellent cocktails and a superlative wine list it would not be long before we were seated, drinks in hand – the subsequent two and a half hours awash in food, cocktails, wine, stories, and laughs with servers who kept pace amicably. Beginning with appetizers and progressing through perfectly pastas, lightly prepared proteins, interesting sides, and thankfully dainty desserts with a main course of nearly 8lbs of aged super-prime beef from Adam Lang plus supple duck and a hefty piece of foie gras poached in Barolo it would be difficult to imagine any "steakhouse" putting on a better performance than what we experienced that evening and although such a meal invariably comes with a substantial tab, particularly on the Vegas Strip, this was a night of excess worthy of the expense and without a doubt a night to remember.
re: uhockey
thanks! maybe i'll switch lotus of siam to a lunch, and hit up sage, e, and carnevino! looks great
