Information on dying hair and caring for coloured hair, and hair extensions. Extra Facts, Hints & Tips! - Special Effects is the most intense, long-lasting, semi-permanent hair color out there, and it conditions hair as it colours. It is not tested on animals and is vegan friendly. - When touching up roots with bleach, don't allow bleach to overlap onto already bleached hair. - Before dyeing, wash hair with cheap shampoo as this strips the hair allowing the dye to take hold. - Rubbing vaseline around hairline and face can stop dye from staining skin. - Leave your dye on for 2-3 hours for a more intense result. Special Effects is a semi-permanent dye and will not harm your hair like many permanent dyes can. You can even leave the dye on overnight! - When dyeing, cover hair with cling film and heat with hair dryer - this should help open cuticles allowing dye to take a better hold! - Adding a little of your semi-perm dye to your conditioner can give your hair a 'top-up' each time you wash which should help to reduce fading. - Using an Protein or Intensive Conditioner after dyeing can help seal your colour in. Used every 1-2 weeks these can also help your hair feel better & healthier! - Rinsing your hair in cold water after conditioning can make it look shinier and help colour to last longer (cold water closes cuticles) My favourite haircare companies!

As requested, my hair care routine. If your hair doesn't grease up as fast as mine, please try to shampoo your hair every other day! If you shampoo everyday, your scalp will try to compensate for the dryness by producing MORE oil making your hair look greasy very quickly. On the day you don't shampoo your hair, you still need to rinse it with water (this won't strip away too much oil). This technique will make your hair more healthy and shiny.

Earlier this week, the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), an international body responsible for setting standards against money laundering and combatting the financing of terrorism, has named Thailand as one of 15 countries designated as "high risk", due to a failure to take sufficient steps against money laundering and terrorist financing activities.
In its statement, FATF said that, despite an assurance from the Thai government to work with the agency and the Asia Pacific Group on Money Laundering (APG) in improving the strategic flaws concerning the anti-money laundering and in combatting the financing of terrorism, the country has lacked sufficient progress in the execution plan.
The Anti-Money Laundering Office (AMLO)'s Acting Secretary-General, Pol. Col. Seehanat Prayoonrat, is now in France to have a meeting with the FATF.
The AMLO chief is due back in Thailand on Monday, when he is expected to hold a press conference to explain all issues and concerns, which the FATF has pointed out in its statement.

Just keep the Russians and the Middle Easterners out and the financial crime problem is half solved. Europeans, Australians and Americans are in Thailand to party.

Memories: Start recording them!
Do you want to begin recording your family history, but just don't know where or how to start?
Or, have you been researching your family for a long time and are now experiencing writer's block?
This post may help everyone interested in recording family history.
Many researchers want to do more than just record names and dates. What we'd like to do is "add meat to the bones," or flesh out our ancestors as we learn about them as individuals.
Amy Coffin of the WeTree genealogy blog has organized 52 Weeks of Personal Genealogy & History, which offers a weekly prompt on a different topic. Readers can also access this list at Geneabloggers.com.
We think that this list is as valuable for recording your own life for your future descendants as it is for those considering interviewing older relatives.
It doesn't matter if you start in the middle of this list, at the end or at the beginning. The essential thing is just to start.
How you record your answers doesn't matter: Use "notes" on an iPad, a document on your computer, write your ideas longhand in a leather-covered journal, an ordinary school notebook, or on plain white paper. Just begin. However, recording them in a nice journal that can be passed down through the generations seems a good idea to us.
As you start recording this information for yourself - and that notebook may become a prized possession for a great-grandchild in the future - you will find more information useful when you interview senior family members.
It is also a great suggestion for your family members at your site at MyHeritage.com. Ask your relatives to contribute their own memories of a topic each week.
I've included a bit about my favorite stuffed animal - in the toy category - but you'll need to read on to learn about Wolfie!
Some warm weather topics:

New Mexico: Taste of Honey
Talk about busy!
As soon as RootsTech ended, Daniel Horowitz and I flew to Albuquerque (New Mexico) to participate in A Taste of Honey, a community-wide education event, sponsored by MyHeritage.com.
Here we are at the MyHeritage display:
Genealogy is a popular subject here, even though there were many sessions on on completely different topics.
My presentation focused on Genealogy 101 - how to get started and, more importantly, why - while Daniel's presentation encouraged family history researchers to utilize all of MyHeritage.com's features.

RootsTech 2011: Fabulous first
This was the first year for RootsTech, a new technology and genealogy conference sponsored by FamilySearch.org, attended by some 3,000 people.
The Salt Lake City, Utah-event was described by some as "a candy store" for genealogists, genealogy bloggers and technology creators, developers and suppliers.
As it brought together technology people and consumers of family history products, it also provided opportunities for genealogy bloggers to meet face-to-face with the movers and shakers.
Each day featured excellent presentations on many topics by well-known speakers. To see the speaker line-up, click here.
With so many exciting talks by industry leaders and speakers, it was hard to plan our days. MyHeritage Chief Genealogist Daniel Horowitz and I staffed the MyHeritage booth and were also scheduled speakers.

Family History: Learn from experts
2011 provides a great opportunity for family history enthusiasts and genealogists to learn from experts who might be visiting their communities.
MyHeritage's own Daniel Horowitz has a daunting tour schedule in the coming months, and I will also be speaking in numerous venues. We will both be speaking at the major genealogy events as well as staffing the company's booth.
We invite MyHeritage.com users to stop by and say hello at the conferences or to attend the other programs at the conferences.
We are especially looking forward to greeting our UK users at the upcoming Who Do You Think You Are? Live family history fair in London.
Here's Daniel's upcoming tour. His topics cover information-packed talks covering a broad range of topics - from MyHeritage features, technology, genealogy school projects, resources and more.

New Year: Learn something new
Do you make New Year's resolutions?
If so, do you keep them? For how long?
While many people resolve to break bad habits or improve physical qualities, those don't seem to last very long.
For a better outcome, try to learn some new skills to further your family history research. One way is to access free online classes. Some may be short tutorials, others are much longer and provide useful and practical data, including step-by-step videos.
What skills, tips or advice are you looking for? Do you need help in managing paperwork or photos? Would learning how to take better photos add to your MyHeritage.com family website?

Tracking the troops: GI Jane, GI Joe
Do you have ancestors or relatives who served in the military?
As we peer into our past, we often find family members who served on land or sea in many countries and in many capacities. Some were on-the-ground forces, while others filled support roles such as tailors, doctors, nurses, cooks or musicians.
London's Imperial War Museum has organized a Family History Day on Saturday, November 6, sponsored by MyHeritage.com. The event will assist participants - from beginners to experienced family historians - to learn how the Blitz affected families, the roles relatives played to help win the war, the aftermath of this history in today's families, and what records are accessible for more information.
The Imperial War Museum is the museum of everyone's story: the history of modern conflict told through the stories of those who were there. It is an educational and historical institution responsible for archives, collections and sites of outstanding national importance. You can view the Museum's main website here.
Women as well as men have served in diverse capacities in all US military branches - Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines and the Coast Guard. For information on women veterans from Colonial to contemporary times, view stories here (scroll down to see other relevant pages on that site), and a time line here. For a collection of photos and artifacts documenting women's service, click here.
One Civil War surgeon - Dr Mary Edwards Walker (photo left) - was the first woman to receive the Medal of Honor.
Accessible records include regiment lists, files for widows' pensions, death and burial records, medals, hospital lists for the wounded, transport lists and many other records, each supplying another piece of the family history puzzle.
Where can you find more information on those who served?

I won't go in to extreme detail, but wanted to offer our opinion on what we liked and what could be improved on.
What we liked:
The Room: Yes I said the room! I liked the bathroom setup, with the exception of the small sink. It allowed our family to get ready at the same time because of the seperation of the vanity, shower, and toilet. The storage was incredible. We had a ton of stuff and couldn't fill it.
Dining: As always, the dining was top notch. We didn't eat in the main dining rooms, but we felt all of the extra charge restaurants were a value. The food quality and service were spot on. The buffet was acceptable, but didn't seem to be on the same level as the Jade, Jewel, and Star.
Cirque Dinner: We had low expectations after reading some reviews, but this show was great! I don't understand how someone can watch the same show as I did and not be impressed. There was great feats of strength and cool acrobatics in a moving ship. We loved this show more than any other on board.
Staff: The staff was second to none. Almost to the person the service we encountered was outstanding.
Spa and Gym: The best I've seen!
Not so Hot:
Elevators: Did seem to take an unusually long time. We constantly had to use them because of the stroller we had, but a lot of people seemed to refuse to walk the stairs which could have been the problem.
Walking track: No view and bombarded with the odors from the ventaltion system.

plants capturing energy from the sun and converting it into chemical energy that will be stored in the sugars it will make.
Overall equation & Tracking the Atoms Through Photosynthesis
6CO2 + 12H2O (light and chorophyl) => C6H12O6 + 6H20 + 6O2
Chlorophyll a
The most important of the two Chlorophyll; found in plants, green algae, and cynobacteria. The differentiating side group is CH3
yellow-orange pigments that absorbs light in photosynthesis; embedded in the thylakoid membranes; yellow-orange vegetables have this (carrots)
Reaction Center
where the photon is going to be focused and where the electrons will be excited; contains two chlorophyll A molecules; the ultimate pigment responsible
Primary Electron acceptor
accepts electron passed from the reaction center, after electrons has been excited and moved to the outer energy level; holds the electron (redox reaction (oxidation and reduction reaction))
occurs when something gains an electron as in the case with the Primary Electron Acceptor.
aka P700; absorbs wavelengths of light in the red area; where 2nd excitation of electrons occur
Plastoquinone Pool.
A "pool" of molecules within the thylakoid membranes; links PSII to PSI; also aids the Cytochrome complex in the pumping of H+ from the stroma to the lumen
an iron sulfur protein that acts as another mobile electron carrier of the pathway; then transfers to the NADP+ reductase
Cyclic Electron Flow

THE Australian dollar has hit a new post-float high and was last night on track to pass US111¢ after dramatically worse-than-expected inflation figures brought forward the prospect of one or more interest rate rises.
The Reserve Bank board will meet on Tuesday, but the Bureau of Statistics has reported inflation had hit 3.6 per cent - well above the Reserve's target band of 2 to 3 per cent and the highest rate for 10 quarters.

CPI rise pushes dollar to record heights
Business Day reporter Chris Zappone looks at the forces sending the Australian dollar to record highs.
Fruit prices soared a further 27 per cent in the quarter, sparked by a further 138 per cent jump in banana prices. The bureau says since January's cyclone fruit prices have more than doubled and banana prices have jumped 470 per cent. Prices rose in all but two of the bureau's 11 categories.
"Inflation is strong no matter how you cut the numbers," said HSBC's chief economist, Paul Bloxham. "The next move in rates is up. I don't expect the [RBA] to wait long."
The ANZ chief economist, Warren Hogan, said the result could not be dismissed as a rogue number. "Underlying inflation is running at an annualised pace of 3.4 per cent. An interest rate hike before year's end is now clearly a high probability."
A 0.25 per cent rise would push the variable mortgage rates charged by the biggest banks above 8 per cent. It would add about $50 to the monthly cost of servicing a $300,000 loan.
Westpac, which this month set itself apart by forecasting a series of four rate cuts, stood by the forecast last night. "Absolutely," said its chief economist, Bill Evans. "The inflation figure was distorted by an unusual reading on financial prices. We are also asked to believe the prices of discretionary goods took off. If they did they will fall back.
''Consumers aren't buying. The [RBA] will start cutting rates late this year or early next."
As if to emphasise the two-speed nature of the economy, this morning's Deloitte Access Investment Monitor identifies a record $831 billion of projects under way or at an advanced stage of planning - an 8 per cent increase on the March quarter.
Western Australia and Queensland account for more than half the spending. Access Economics says the national broadband network is also part of the boom, adding $3 billion to projected investment in 2011-12.
The Treasurer, Wayne Swan, welcomed the "huge pipeline of investment" but said the resurgence of inflation was due to the "massive destruction to crops" caused by Cyclone Yasi and the summer floods.
The shadow treasurer, Joe Hockey, dismissed the floods as an excuse. "They put their hands in the air and blame some natural disaster,'' he said. ''It's their own actions."
Mr Swan was incensed, saying as a proud Queenslander he found Mr Hockey's reference to "some natural disaster" nothing short of offensive. "This is the same shadow treasurer who described the global financial crisis as a hiccup.''

Thomson to move to Japan?
Reports in the New Zealand press claim that All Blacks flanker Adam Thomson could be set for a switch to Japan. Thomson is currently out of the international reckoning and Hurricanes boss Jamie Joseph expects the flanker to be playing abroad next season.
"Adam hasn't committed to New Zealand rugby so it's difficult to select him. That indicates he's heading overseas," Joseph said. "He's been a great servant and he will be sorely missed."

Wauwatosa officers' quick actions save apartments, businesses from fire
UPDATED 3:12 PM CDT Jul 04, 2013
A pair of Wauwatosa police officers spotted a fire before it could do damage.
It's a story WISN 12 News' partners at Wauwatosa Patch are following.
Officer Kurt Svatek was driving down 72nd Street and North Avenue when he heard a residential smoke detector from his squad car.
He made a U-turn and spotted smoke inside the Ono Kine Grindz restaurant.
He and Officer Derek Dienhart pounded on doors of businesses and nearby apartments and called the fire department.
Firefighters found a smoldering bin of grease-soaked rags in the kitchen.
No one was hurt, and the damage was not serious thanks to the officer's quick work.

Piece Of Metal Found In 'Bicycle Bob?s' Skull
Dwite Morgan Found Beaten, Stabbed To Death In 2009
UPDATED 3:59 AM CST Jan 14, 2012
Police have found new clues in the death of a metro area man who was stabbed and beaten to death in 2009.
Officers said the remains of Dwite Morgan, known as "Bicycle Bob," were exhumed Monday.
On Saturday, District Attorney David Prater said a piece of metal was recovered from Morgan's skull. District Attorney David Prater said the metal found in Morgan's skull matches what police believe to be the murder weapon.
Authorities said they hoped exhuming the body could bring forward new evidence to help convict a suspect, Connor Mason, in Morgan's death.

Penelec officials said Monday they will end the lockout of Utility Workers Union of America Local 180 on Monday.
The action will end a 20-week lockout that began on Nov. 25. UWUA Local 180 employees were notified Monday that they will be returning to work under the terms of the company's last, best and final offer of Nov. 6.
That offer contains wage increases, increases in shift premiums and meal allowances and additional operational improvements, such as a new job classification intended to increase customer service and efficiency.
"We are pleased that Local 180 employees will be returning to work and remain committed to resolving our issues," said Penelec regional president Scott Wyman in a statement. "We will continue negotiations with UWUA to arrive at an agreed upon contract ratified by Local 180 members."
In a statement late Monday, UWUA Local President Bob Walen said, "We are pleased that FirstEnergy and Penelec have ended this irresponsible lockout and that our members will finally be returning to work.
"Even so, we condemn FirstEnergy's attempt to circumvent good faith bargaining by implementing concession demands designed to undermine customer service and fair labor standards."
"Both sides had been meeting and will continue to meet. We wanted to get the employees back to work, and we are very pleased they are coming back to work.
"We will continue to negotiate and try to get a ratified contract by the membership," said FirstEnergy Corp. spokesman Scott Surgeoner. "We hope it will be sooner rather than later, but
we wanted to get them back to work."
Local 180 members will return to their normal operating location at 7 a.m. Monday, and employees will be reinstated to the positions they held before the lockout, the company said.
FirstEnergy, Penelec's parent company, locked out about 140 line, substation, clerk and meter services employees in the Altoona, Lewistown and Shippensburg areas on Nov. 25 after the union rejected the company's final contract offer.
The two sides met with a federal mediator six times but were not able to reach
an agreement.
FirstEnergy has been using management staff, employees from other FirstEnergy companies and contractors
to provide service to customers.

What would happen if a respected business coach gave you a new model for leadership that could help you achieve the happiness, productivity and fulfillment at work you so desire? It would change your life. That's exactly what author Ginny O'Brien has done. She's a certified business coach who draws on an approach she's used successfully for years in her practice to develop effective leaders. It integrates competencies from three domains of leadership - self, work and others - and emphasizes both masculine and feminine elements of strength.

Exercises, tools and specific guidance are also provided to help you turn the information presented into everyday practices.
The purpose of the book is not to help you become the next Jack Welch - being a great leader doesn't mean you have to get to the top. Rather, it is to provide you with practices and techniques that will transform you into a more positive, authentic leader who can make work better for yourself and those you currently lead.
Sample Topics:
- Identifying values: getting to the core of you.
- The dilemma of defensive behaviors.
- Leadership and parenting: the same skill set dealing with people you don't respect
- Assertive vs. Agressive
- Passive-agressive communicators: The alienators

Awesome! The ruffles look fantastic! Did the course teach you exactly how to do this? Any tips?
No I didn't learn this technique in this class I got the idea from another cake that had a similar design and the technique I used is similar to the craftsy class Fondant Frills by Maggie Austin except I bunched them up and stuck them on the cake instead of layering them. My one tip would be to make sure you have time cause it takes a while to make all the frills and if it looks messy at first don't freak out cause the finished product is what matters not the first stages.


text: quote: While the defect mess is unpleasant for all those involved it does raise some interesting questions about governance. Some say that the government should not police companies, and that the commercial press should be left to investigate reports of defects and inform consumers of safety risk. Others argue the current system is a successful one. And still others argue that current regulation does not go far enough -- that the federal government should have the ability to levy even bigger fines against companies who knowingly make products that could endanger U.S. consumers.

GM recalls midsize cars to fix brake problem
DETROIT -- General Motors is recalling about 8,200 midsize cars to fix a problem with the front brakes.
It's the sixth recall announced by GM this week and the 24th this year. Since January, GM has recalled about 11.2 million cars and trucks.
The latest recall affects 2014 Buick Lacrosse and Chevrolet Malibu models.
GM reported in documents posted Friday by U.S. safety regulators that rear brake rotors were mistakenly installed on the front. The rear rotors are thinner, so brake pads will wear faster and could lose contact with the brake calipers. That could cause longer stopping distances and brake failure.
The company said it has no reports of crashes or injuries due to the problem.
Dealers were told to stop delivering the cars on May 1. Owners will get letters starting May 29. SOURCE: Associated Press

Urban Meyer is gone, off to Bristol where he will analyze instead of coach.
Gone with him is the spread offense, which delivered the Gators two of the last five BCS national championships.
Arriving along with new head coach Will Muschamp is offensive coordinator Charlie Weis, who has installed a pro-style system. It will take some adjusting, but here is an early look (subject to change) as to who I think will trot out for Florida's first series on offense in the 2011 season.

"It's kid-friendly, animal-friendly," the actress, 27, tells In Style magazine of the newly renovated L.A. canyon home she shares with husband Cash Warren and their 5-month-old daughter Honor Marie.
"You can jump on the sofas, walk around barefoot," she says in the magazine's November issue. "There's nothing off-limits here."
By using nontoxic paints and recycled furniture, the new parents – whose family also includes three dogs – pulled off an environmentally friendly renovation.
As for how Warren, 29, contributes to the new house, Alba says, "he's pretty organized for a dude."

Whatever It Takes
What's funny and ironic about films like "Whatever it Takes" is that the adults who write them think they have insight into the teenage mind because they remember themselves as teenagers. With all the reflective wisdom of Dan Quayle during his latest presidential run, they fondly remember all the stupid things they did, put them in the screenplay, and then expect today's teenagers to identify with it. The ironic part is that they reveal themselves to be even more stupid as adults.
Such is the case with these filmmakers and their riff on "Cyrano De Bergerac." The believability of the plot lasts all of about five seconds. Ryan (Shane West), who's friends with Maggie (Marla Sokoloff), wants Ashley (Jodi Lyn O'Keefe). Ashley is friends with Chris, who wants Maggie. So, Ryan and Chris conspire to get each other what they want even though Ryan and Ashley have nothing in common and neither do Chris and Maggie.
Naturally, it takes the characters days to figure out what the audience knows instantly. Ryan and Maggie are neighbors and their balconies are like five feet apart. Furthermore, Maggie makes Ashley look like Linda Tripp, due in part to a rack from which you could hang a couple of deer heads and the kids' soccer trophies. But Ryan wants the vain Ashley and somehow gets the super-intelligent Maggie to fall for the selfish, idiotic Chris. This is also the kind of film where three people have a phone conversation requiring them to put each other on hold, so the filmmakers cut to the phone each time so you can see their fingers hitting the "hold" button, as if you couldn't figure that out.
During the course of all this, Ryan naturally ostracizes his geeky friends, which pretty much happens in every single teen comedy about a geek becoming cool. The film is also endlessly insulting to women who apparently don't exercise one iota of control over their lives and are easily manipulated by the simplest of plans hatched by teenagers. This film stops just short of the filmmakers' actual vision for young females, which is to line them up, legs spread, and have them willingly and stupidly submit to the wishes of every guy in sight.

The Elusive Ken Clark
Times were different. I'm talking nearly 25 years ago.
This wouldn't happen now. It probably shouldn't have happened then, calling a Nebraska football player at home. But I was a newspaper reporter, and I had been told to call Ken Clark for a comment about something or other; I forget the reason. As I said, it was a long time ago.
Anyway, the number was readily available in a student directory.
Clark answered. I knew it was him.
"Ken?" I said, identifying myself.
"No," he said. "Ken's not here. Call back in 10 minutes."
I called back in 10 minutes.
No one picked up.
So much for a comment from Ken Clark.
That's how I remember him, a guy who didn't much care for reporters and, more to the point, the attention that came with his success as a Husker I-back.
Nothing personal, as far as I could tell.
"He wasn't looking for the limelight," former Husker Broderick Thomas said in a phone interview Monday morning. "A ball under his arm was his favorite thing . . . a fine running back. Good guy, quiet; that was Ken. Most people would say he was very quiet."
Most people would not say that about Thomas, a two-time All-American who was a member of the same recruiting class as Clark in 1985. The class was among the more publicized during Tom Osborne's 25 years as head coach, in large part because of Thomas, Steve Taylor and LeRoy Etienne.
All three earned letters as true freshmen.
Clark was among the other 21 in the class, the Huskers' first scholarship recruit from Omaha Bryan High School. "He came here under the radar," said Thomas.
Maybe because he missed part of his senior season because of injury.
But Clark remained under the radar, to some degree, even after rushing for 1,497 yards in 1988, his junior season at Nebraska, the third-highest single-season total in Husker history at the time.
Only Mike Rozier had rushed for more yards, setting the record as a junior (1,689) and then breaking it as a senior (2,148), when he won Nebraska's second Heisman Trophy.
As a result, the Huskers' 1989 media guide featured Clark, No. 32, on its cover, under the heading: Heisman Trophy Candidate Ken Clark. The guide said that "with a great (senior) year and a little luck" Clark could become Nebraska's third Heisman Trophy winner.
As a junior, Clark had flown under the radar in the Big Eight because of Oklahoma State junior Barry Sanders, who would win the Heisman Trophy and then declare for the NFL draft.
Clark earned first-team All-Big Eight recognition from the Associated Press only (not the coaches' or UPI teams) in 1988, a head scratcher explained in the media guide as a result of Clark's starting slowly in his first season as the regular I-back, succeeding Keith Jones.
Clark rushed for 1,016 yards in the final six games, with back-to-back 200-yard efforts, including 256 (and three touchdowns) in a memorable head-to-head matchup with Sanders.
That's the game for which Clark is most remembered, understandably so.
He didn't have much luck as a senior, dealing with injuries and missing one game. Even so, he rushed for 1,196 yards and 12 touchdowns and was first-team All-Big Eight, unanimously.
Mostly, writers know athletes for such things, what they do in competition, things that can be quantified and assessed and ranked. We see them with limited vision.
Yes, Clark is now seventh on Nebraska's career-rushing list.
But he was more than such numbers, much more.
"I knew him fairly well," Thomas said. "On the average, he was quiet. But certain people could bring him out of his shell. He'd laugh and joke, and the next thing you knew, he was quiet."
Thomas learned about Clark's passing, at age 46, on Saturday night.
Thomas will celebrate his 46th birthday on Wednesday.
"My prayers go out to the family," he said.
Mine do, too.
I smiled the night I called Clark at home. I still smile at the thought.
I know it was him. He got me good.
Rest in peace.

Being from Liverpool, I have seen Price fight since he was an amateur and has followed his career for a long time. The glass chin is a myth imo. I'm not saying he's got a granite chin, but he's never been down in the pros. Against fury, it was a flash knock down and he got up straight away and won the fight. We have all seen the likes of Ali, Foreman, Frazier, Tyson, Wladimir, Lennox etc etc been floored many times in their careers. If you get hit by a guy who's 250 pounds - it's going to hurt.

"Is it too much too soon?" Is this writer having a laugh?! No need to worry on that score as Price won't be going anywhere near a world title until the Klits have gone. Whenever you hear Price talk all he bangs on about is 'long learning processes' and about being at least '12-18 months from being ready' on his winding journey. If the Klits are still around this time next year you can be sure Price will still be at least another '12-18 months' from being ready then too. Or '5 fights' was the most recent quote

David Price's chin will stop him from winning a world title. You can quote me on that.
Didn't Cammarelle put him down 6 times in one fight?

David looks like a beast, but I fear he has been tagged a bit too easily recently. Matt Skelton managed to land a few right on the button, and he's fat and old.
I hope it's just inexperience/ring nerves/being careless in gunning for the KO, and not a problem with his defensive abilities.
I can't imagine he has a tough chin either, I reckon he'll get wobbled soon.

He needs more experience before he steps up to that level.
I don't personally think there is enough depth of quality in the HW division for him to find meaningful fights for another 18 months and he will be forced to step up sooner rather than later.
He needs to beat Fury first before he moves to the next level.

Price is a knockout waiting to happen. Look how easy the last guy he beat was able to get close and land punches in the first round. And his chin is terrible, which is expected for a man of his size.

What I'm saying is..Grant lost everything because Lewis brutalized him and dominated him..
Price vs Wladimir will not be A REPEAT of Lewis-Grant.
What would most likely happen is Wladimir will box cautiously for 10 rounds on route to a late tko or Wide UD.
That kind of loss Price can easily bounce back from. The Lewis-Grant type of beating is impossible to bounce back from.
LET'S ALSO NOT FORGET. Wlad got a very very shaky chin. one price right hand
and it's Pele Reid all over again

U.S Marshals put $5K bounty on man who claimed he owned half of Facebook
U.S Marshals are offering a $5,000 reward for information on a man who falsely claimed to own 50% of Facebook.
Mark Elliot Zuckerberg (born May 14, 1984) is an American computer programmer and Internet entrepreneur. He is best known as one of five co-founders of the social networking site Facebook. Zuckerberg is the chairman and chief executive of Facebook, Inc.
Born and raised in New York state, he took up writing software programs as a hobby in middle school, beginning with BASIC, with help from his father and a tutor (who called him a "prodigy"). In high school, he excelled in classic literature and fencing while studying at Phillips Exeter Academy.
He later attended Harvard University, majoring in computer science and psychology. In his sophomore year, he wrote a program called Facemash as a "fun" project, letting students on the college's network vote on other students' photo attractiveness. It was shut down within days, but would become a template for his writing Facebook, a program he launched from his dormitory room. With the help of friends, he took Facebook to other campuses...

(EDITOR'S NOTE: Each Monday, the Sun-Gazette asks somebody in the area, "What's on your mind?" If you have a topic you would like to share, contact us at email@example.com.)
Dyln Bukhart, 22, of South Williamsport, worries that many people don't take care of their pets properly. She is concerned that people acquire new pets with little regard for the long-term commitment they are making.
"I see people all the time who get a new pet, take care of them for a few weeks, then seem to forget that they exist," Bukhart said.
"Then, the animal starts behaving badly because they're bored and lonely, and their owners have no idea how to handle the issue," she added.
Bukhart was shocked several weeks ago to see a man hit a Chihuahua and drag it by the leash.
"I couldn't believe it. There was this huge guy beating this little tiny dog right on the sidewalk in broad daylight. Nobody seemed to care," she said.
Bukhart confronted the man, and the two of them got into a brief argument. She remains frustrated about the situation.
"People just don't think before they get a pet. You need to ask yourself, 'Do I have enough time and energy? Is there room in my house for this animal?' " Bukhart said.
Inattention also contributes to the overabundance of unwanted animals, she said.
"I don't have my animals that live inside fixed, but I also watch them to make sure they don't breed. Because I take care of them, I know when they go into heat, and can act accordingly," Bukhart said.
"On the other hand, my cat which goes outside is fixed. I chose to get him fixed because I know he will slip in and out of the house, and I can't watch him and control when he breeds," she added.
She said an animal's personality can change drastically after going under the knife, and added that a pet owner should make the decision to spay or neuter based on their individual animals.

Los Angeles – The 39th American Music Awards will feature among its leading figures Sunday such Latino artists as Jennifer Lopez, Marc Anthony, Pitbull, Enrique Iglesias and Christina Aguilera in a ceremony where the singer Adele is the big favorite.
The British singer of "Rolling in the Deep" has been nominated for four of these prizes including Artist of the Year, a category where she will compete with Lady Gaga, Lil Wayne, Katy Perry and Taylor Swift, all with a chance to take three prizes, as do Rihanna and The Band Perry.
The gala to be held Sunday at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles at 5:00 p.m. (0100 GMT Monday) - though the broadcast on ABC will be delayed for the West Coast - will feature a previous event starting an hour earlier and celebrity arrivals on the red carpet that can be followed live on the Internet.
The rapper of Cuban descent Pitbull is the Latino with the most chances at the AMAs this year with two nominations, one as Favorite Male Artist in Pop or Rock Music, where he will compete against Justin Bieber and Bruno Mars, and another as Favorite Artist in Latin Music, where he is up against Enrique Iglesias and Jennifer Lopez.
Also with two nominations are Beyonce, Bruno Mars, Chris Brown, Jason Aldean, Kanye West, LMFAO and Nicki Minaj, while Angeleno artist Miguel of Mexican origin is a candidate for New Artist of the Year in Soul/R&B.
Pitbull will also take the stage to provide some musical backing for the awards in a performance accompanied by Marc Anthony and Lil Jon.
That will be just one of the segments in the ceremony in which U.S. music stars combine their talents.
Maroon 5 will interpret their number "Moves Like Jagger" together with Christina Aguilera, while Enrique Iglesias will do a duo with Ludacris, Jennifer Lopez will harmonize with Will.i.am of The Black Eyed Peas, and Nicki Minaj will do the same with David Guetta.
The list of singers who will put music in the music awards also includes Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, Drake, Chris Brown, Mary J. Blige, Kelly Clarkson, Daughtry, The Band Perry, OneRepublic and Gym Class Heroes.
The American Music Awards were created in 1973 by producer Dick Clark to honor the most popular artists then on the U.S. musical scene, and for the last five years the prizewinners have been chosen by popular vote over the Internet, though the nominees are originally picked according to their sales success and their popularity on the Web.
Twenty-one prizes will be handed out at the 39th American Music Awards in the categories of Pop/Rock, Country, Rap/Hip-Hop, Soul/R&B, Alternative Rock Music, Adult Contemporary Music, Latin Music and Contemporary Inspirational, New Artist of the Year, and most important of all, Artist of the Year.
Among the hosts of the ceremony will be Selena Gomez, Alanis Morissette, Benjamin Bratt, Heidi Klum, Jennifer Hudson, Joe Jonas, Lionel Richie, Queen Latifah, Taio Cruz, Taylor Swift and Vanessa Marano.

The ship was kept immaculately clean and the onboard crew, staff, and entertainment were excellent. As usual, food started out great and the quality decreased over the course of the cruise. We were upgraded from sea view to veranda without our consent and it was not worth it. Having the veranda took space from the interior of the cabin and it was not really big enough for three.
My main complaint was with the excursions-particularly in Iceland. Iceland was to be the highlight of the trip. Instead of the volcanic nature walk the excursion brochure described for Rekjavik we were driven through some scenic areas and then dumped at the blue spa lagoon for a hour and a half. We had the spa bathing experience the day before in Ackeuyri and did not pay for or want a double dose of bathing. The excursions were overpriced and overpromised for what we were actually given. Take the cruise but seek excursion options elsewhere. There are lots of reputable local tour operators, such as DenRus in St. Petersburg, out there. Find them. You will be much better served.
There was also a great deal of pressure from some of the staff, ie spa, to pay for expensive treatments on the "at sea" days. I felt kind of like I was being run through a money milking machine on the tour of the ship.

But Alabama is near the top in two national categories...gettin' shot and gettin' fat. Seems to me these are two bites off the same biscuit...maybe we're easier to shoot because we're such big targets.
Just stands to reason if a nut job goes down to the Walmart, heaven forbid, and starts shootin' at nothin' in particular, your chances of gettin' hit are higher if you're a big'un rather than a skinny'un.
So, what about a solution? Would it make more sense to tighten gun laws or snack laws?
Speaking of easy targets, looks like the Croweblog's MVP, Mr. D, has scored again in the Toon Tease. Congratulations! Gimme a shout to discuss your prize.

I would compare Shanes lightweight career to flyweight career of Marc Johnson or strawweight career of Ivan Calderon.
Their level of opposition was really poor, especially comparing to other great fighters at those wieght classes that they are compared to, but they definitely proved that they could beat much better fighters than they did when they all moved up and compate with really good fighters at weight-classes that could not be their best.
I always thought that Shane could've been a monster at 140. He would still be very big for weightclass and at the time his opponents would get slower and making weight would be slightly easier with additional 5 pounds of room. I think he hurted his legacy in long term by jumping straight to 147, even if he was able to beat Oscar there.

What's so much different about Valero's career and Mosley's Lightweight run? Do tell.
Both have high KO ratio's against almost entirely unranked bums.
Infact, the one good fighter Valero fought in DeMarco he looked better than Shane did against the one good fighter he fought in Holiday.
Is Micheal Moorer's run at LHW not terrible either?
And no I'm not talking about him as if he's a bum at all. Where have I insinuated that? I am talking about him as if his Lightweight run was a joke, which, it was.
Infact, I've said the opposite. He'd have beaten most of the ranked fighters, infact he'd have dominated most. But atleast then it would have legitimized his LW reign as opposed to fighting almost entirely unranked bums making it non existant.
Although, he'd have lost to Stevie Johnston IMO.
Jose Luis Castillo's Lightweight reign was awesome.
Shane Mosley's was terrible.
If you beat up and destroy a long list of unranked fighters I don't consider your reign any more than terrible.
Micheal Moorer, Edwin Valero, and Shane Mosley's runs at those times in their career's were atrocious.
I'm talking about Shane Mosley's Lightweight reign as if it's as lack luster as Edwin Valero's short career.

And did he really show the massive gap between him and the guys that were there?
Like I said, the only good fighter who was ranked highly or possibly even ranked at all was Philip Holiday and he looked distinctly worse and beatable in that fight compared to the other unranked bums he fought there.
I wouldn't be surprised at all if Steve Johnston has beaten him if they'd have fought.

I have always loved the smell of cedar but was always disappointed till I found this soap. I cannot say enough about the wonderful smell!!
I found this soap while traveling through Texas at a Bucky's. Fell inlove with BOTH! I'm so happy I found it online to order directly & I dont have to wait until my next vacation.
A WILD SOAP BAR'S RESPONSE: Thanks. We love Buc-ees too! :)
