I'm Harris Faulkner in tonight for Shepard Smith we are learning US forces could soon be headed to the Syrian border.
Their mission part of NATO's plan to put patriot missiles up the line between Turkey and Syria.
This patriots are designed to intercept any potential missiles coming from Syria and defense officials say any country.
But since its equipment is likely to send their own troops operate it.
We're told no one has signed deployment orders officially just yet but it's almost certain at this hour US troops will be on the move there's absolutely no indication.
Our fighting men and women would cross into Syrian territory.
But the Pentagon has told the Obama administration it would require more than 75000.
Soldiers to secure Syria's chemical weapons stockpiles.
It's impossible to say exactly how much that would cost.
But the price tag for that sort of operation could easily run into the billions of dollars now again there's no indication at all.
That such an operation will happen any time soon.
All this coming just days after President Obama -- in the Syrian regime of consequences.
It turns -- chemical weapons on its own citizens and today secretary of state Hillary Clinton saying the world has made that perfectly clear.
To president -- Charles sought.
We have sent a an unmistakable message that.
This would cross a red line and those responsible would be held to account.
Activists saying at least 40000 people have died in the anti government uprising that began last year and now evidence the bloodshed is again seeking across.
Another border into Lebanon.
Gunmen loyal to the Syrian regime and rebels fought it out on the streets in the northern part of that country.
Dozens reported dead in two days of fighting there similar clashes have erupted more than a dozen times before in Lebanon.
More violence and death that we can Trace back to the actions of one man.
And today a new warning from the head of the United Nations that president -- probably should not expect any mercy from his counterparts around the world.

It may be gratifying for women to see their husbands loading the dishwasher or folding laundry, but is it sexy? Yes, according to many media stories. "Men: Want More Sex? Do the Laundry" was headline of a 2009 report from CBS News. According to Naomi Wolf, "research has shown that the most erotic thing a man can do for a woman is the dishes." Sheryl Sandberg, the author of "Lean In," agrees. "Nothing is sexier" she says, than a man who wants to do his share of the housework. "It may be counterintuitive," writes Sandberg, "but the best way for a man to make a pass at his wife is to do the dishes." Sandberg urges readers to check out a "fabulous little book" called "Porn for Women" produced by the Cambridge Women's Pornography Cooperative. It is full of images of hunky guys vacuuming, dusting, and cleaning the kitty litter.
But now a new study in the American Sociological Review casts doubt on the truth of this happy feminist idyll. Men routinely doing "female" chores appear to have less - not more - sex. According to the authors, Sabino Kornrich (Center for Advanced Studies in the Social Sciences, Madrid), Julie Brines (University of Washington), and Katrina Leupp (University of Washington):
"Couples in which men participate more in housework typically done by women report having sex less frequently. Similarly, couples in which men participate more in traditionally masculine tasks - such as yard work, paying bills and auto maintenance - report higher sexual frequency."
The three researchers looked at data from a nationally representative sample of 4,500 heterosexual married couples from the U.S. National Survey of Families and Households, 1992 to 1994 - the most recent large-scale study measuring household chores, sexual frequency, and marital satisfaction.
Men in the study reported having had sex an average of 5.2 times in the month prior to the survey, while women reported 5.6 times on average. But both men and women in couples with more gender-traditional divisions of household labor reported having had more sex than those with more egalitarian divisions.
In marriages where women performed all the typically female tasks (cleaning, cooking, shopping - called "core work" by the researchers), couples had sex 1.6 times more per month than couples where men carried out all these traditionally female chores. In marriages where men helped out but stuck to stereotypical male tasks ("non-core" work such automobile maintenance, yard work, bill-paying, and snow shoveling), couples had sex 0.7 times more than those where women performed the traditional male tasks. But, as the researchers point out, even in marriages where men did 40 percent of the "female" chores, couples experience "substantially lower sexual frequency than households in which women perform all the core [typically female] chores." Put simply: There appears to be an inverse relationship between husbands doing traditionally female tasks and sexual frequency.
Sommers is a resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute. Her books include "Who Stole Feminism" and "The War Against Boys."

Scaling an icy waterfall, kayaking on Lake Superior waves, and driving a horse-drawn sleigh. These are just some of the experiences Positive Energy Outdoors offers their guests. By providing access to these and other outdoor adventures, people are encouraged to explore the natural world in new ways. Co-founders Stephanie Love and Blake Cazier use their backgrounds in outdoor education to provide unique animal-powered excursions such as dog sledding and wagon rides, along with people-powered rock climbing and kayaking tours and instruction.
Garrett and Heather love standup paddleboarding so much that it's not unusual to see them paddling past ice floes. Because of this love, the North Shore SUP instructors seek to draw a broad range others to the sport as well with a variety of paddleboarding classes. Beginners can opt for intro-level instruction, and adventurous types can try standup-paddleboard yoga. Paddle with Your Kids sessions give parents and children more pleasant quality time outdoors than rewriting favorite bedtime stories into fallen snow. Those interested in rentals can take regular or inflatable boards by the hour or day and can ask Garrett and Heather about the best local standup-paddleboarding spots.

In 1987, Brian McInerny was careening around Italy in a four-wheel, multipassenger Surrey cycle. An avid cyclist, he fell in love with this quirky contraption that he'd never seen in the United States and he immediately sought out the manufacturer and purchased a crate of them. Wheel Fun Rentals traces its origin to this very moment, as Brian changed his surrey-distribution company into a rental and tour company that spans the nation. In spite of a general suspicion of unicycles and their ulterior motives, the company's corporate philosophy espouses "Supporting active healthy lifestyles for our customers and maintaining a healthy environment for all." Wheel Fun's fleet of rentals now includes bicycles, multipassenger Surreys, scooters, surfboards, and paddle-based watercraft. They also promote green communities by offering free rentals to Big Brothers Big Sisters.
Trek & Trail's intrepid guides lead kayakers to the 21 Apostle Islands and endless opportunities for camping, hiking, and sightseeing. The outfit provides all kayak equipment, food, and tents for each excursion, but kayakers must bring their own sleeping bags and clothing. Before each trip departs, the experienced instructors conduct a two- to three-hour basic safety course, during which students learn paddling techniques, how to deal with inhospitable weather, and how to use the boat as a battering ram to topple nearby sand castles.

To This Day is a project based on a spoken word poem written by Shane Koyczan called "To This Day", to further explore the profound and lasting impact that bullying can have on an individual.
Schools and families are in desperate need of proper tools to confront this problem. We can give them a starting point… A message that will have a far reaching and long lasting effect in confronting bullying.
Animators and motion artists brought their unique styles to 20 second segments that will thread into one fluid voice.
This collaborative volunteer effort demonstrates what a community of caring individuals are capable of when they come together. To This Day was Produced by Giant Ant

Love it!
Beautiful diamonds, they have a really good shine to them. The bracelet seems pretty sturdy and it looks great.
The bracelet is beautiful!
The diamonds are beautiful and sparkle beautifully. The size of the bracelet is fine. I only wish the diamonds were a little larger - other than that I am very happy with my purchase.
Nice Surprise for Christmas!
Blue Nile was great to deal with and the bracelet is of good quality. I felt I received a great value here for the price paid.
priced the exact same bracelet at a local jeweler for close to $2500 more. when this arrived the diamonds were whiter and sparkled more. excellent.
Its really pretty, but small, for a 5k bracelet.the quality is really good, the craftsmanship is really good but the size and I mean the width is tiny.
"She loves the bracelet."
Unwrapping her present to discover the Blue Nile box only increased her excitement...to open and find the 3ct. tw bracelet was the highlight of her day/week/month...
Good value
Very nice, service was excellent as usual. Bracelet was a nice surprise, good size, color and workmanship.
She couldn't believe her eyes
She thought she was getting a cheap little mall store necklace, so when she opened the box, she was floored. She loves it and has barely taken it off in the last month.
Beautiful, high-quality bracelet. A bit larger than I expected. The only glitch occurred when my package was hung up in a fedex hub overnight. Customer service was immediately on top of it when I informed them of the situation and arranged for a Saturday delivery.
pleasantly surprised
Beautiful quality diamonds. The prong setting enhances the look of the diamonds. At first I thought the diamonds would look small on my larger wrist, but I was pleasantly surprised at its beauty.
Perfect pushing present
It was at my door the next day. My wife loved it! This was a gift to celebrate the birth of our first child. My wife won't take it off.
Great bracelet for everyday
Very pretty. The diamonds are a good size and has great sparkle.
"Won't take it off"
Very Nice. My bride of 26 years loved it. In fact, she hasn't taken it off since I gave it to her.
Daughter loved it.
My daughter loved this bracelet. The diamonds are showcased without seeing the setting, so it looks like a circle of diamonds only. I want one myself.
Looks great! She will love it!
I ordered the bracelet and recieved it quite a bit faster than I expected! The bracelet arrived in a nice box and it is definately worth the value! Diamonds are very good quality and it is very well made. The clasping mechanism is very good compared to other braclets I've looked at. Though it does look smaller than you would think from the pictures - if you're not satisifed Blue Nile has a great no hassle 30 day return policy. I'm definately I went with the 3ct Bracelet rather than the smaller ones I was considering, anything less would be too small.
beautiful bracelet
absolutely beautiful. Far exceeded my expectations. Looks much more expensive than what I paid.
Fedex surprise was a hit!
My wife had seen the Fedex box on the table for a couple days prior to Mother's Day. She thought nothing of it as I routinely receive shipments from various business connections. But then on Sunday morning, our two year old son brought her the box and at first she was scolding him to put it back where he got it from. And then she thought, "Aha!" and opened it up. She was very suprised and delighted.
The bracelet is a very nice piece. The clasp is excellent for ensuring against accidental loss. It was a little tricky to figure out but obvious in retrospect.
A friend recommended Blue Nile and we have not been disappointed in the least.
A perfect ¿Sweet 16" birthday present!!!
The bracelet was a beautiful expression of love for a special young lady¿s 16th birthday celebration. My niece was wonderfully surprised and thrilled with the gift. It gave tangible form to the love and support she receives from me. It is a beautiful keepsake that she wears in stunning fashion. I am completely pleased!
I LOVE my bracelet!!!!!!
This bracelet is beautiful...very shiny and the diamonds sparkle. I've gotten so many compliments on it! Will definitely order from here again!
Loved it!
Beautiful bracelet...looks very nice on my petite wrist without being "too much".
work of art
my wife was thrilled, she could not believe her eyes and from my end i have to say that i was very satisfied with the service offered by Blue Nile. A very convenine t way to customize a gift while shopping from home.
She loved it, case closed.
The bracelet was exceptional in quality. Looks perfect on her small wrist and what else can be said, she loves it.?
It was a christmas gift and my wife was thrilled she loves it and wears it all the time.

Nice variety of wine. Good flavor, smooth, and really yummy bouquet. Very reasonable prices as well. Never thought of Texas for good wine, but this was yummy
Nice variety of wine. Good flavor, smooth, and really yummy bouquet. Very reasonable prices as well. Never thought of Texas for good wine, but this was yummy
Of all the Texan Wineries this is my favorite. Sommeliers are fun and knowledgeable, the wine is divine and the atmosphere harkens to another of America's wine-producing states. My favorite time to go is in the fall but spring offers the chance to enjoy the winery's fields of lavender. Take your time visiting the winery and my suggestion is to... More
Today we visited the winery for the first time. Gene Switzer, owner and winemaker led us through an enjoyable and interesting wine tasting. His wines are family produced with a large number of varities. Gene is a delight....a real one of a kind. Don't miss picking up a couple bottles of Main Street Christmas wine to enjoy over the holidays!
I visited the wine tasting shop on Main Street towards the end of my self-tour of wineries in the Fredericksburg area. The wines were good, especially their Christmas wine served warm, but the atmosphere was more like a warehouse store than a winery like the others I visited. It's worth walking down to their location on Main Street to try... More
We come here everytime we come to Fredericksburg,Tx. Their wines are the best in Texas. There is a candy store next door that puts their wine inside chocolate.
Staff was not warm, wine was terrible and prices were a bit much for the quality. No atmosphere. As far as all the Winery's you can go to in the Fredericksburg area this is a total waste of time.
My wife and I decided to give it a go. We stopped in and right away was greeted somewhat warmly and the staff explained the pricing for the tasting. We tasted 5 wines and bought 3 bottles. Not bad at all. Reading some of the previous reviews regarding rude staff, maybe we caught her on a good day?
The shop had about 12 wines to choose from with a complimentary tasting of 5 wines of our choice. I chose 3 of the drier wines then chose one that was a little sweeter. I then asked for another dry wine for my 5th and last taste and the female clerk refused to serve it to me! She said I... More
We visited this winery during the weekend. A staff member announced she was available for tastings at an empty counter. I went over and asked if I could try one of their wines. She said she had to go through the whole list first. I said ok, the she very rudely said she would have to wait for the people... More
Christmas Wine is yummy!! Whites are good. Reds not to my taste. Colors tend to be on the brown side rather than a deep, red, clear color: part of the pleasure of red wine. But I bought 3 bottles of their Gleuweine style Christmas Wine that I will serve out of a crockpot.

Krauthammemer & his crew prefer dead U.S. soldiers to diplomacy. However inartful the dialogue between the Americans and the Russians, it is preferable to the "strong leadership" that lied us into a war in Iraq with their smug assertions and clever marketing strategies.
If the chemical weapons in Syria can be located and destroyed without dragging the U.S. into a war and further loss of blood and treasure in the God-forsaken Middle East, then it is a reason to applaud the president and his efforts.
America is not war weary, they are as susceptible to demagogues and fools as they ever were. Krauthammer is certainly not war weary. It is our troops are weary and wary of war and must be protected and shielded from the likes of Krauthammer who is as comfortable spilling the blood of our soldiers and innocent civilians as he is in spewing his political drivel.
But you are ok with Obama's rush to bomb a country rather than have diplomacy do it's work? That's like calling the kettle black isn't it?

In & Out
Q: My boyfriend and I have been together for several years. We are both still quite young, yet I sometimes have to beg for sex. If I don't say anything we often go a week or two between sessions. I don't really think that the issue is fidelity, but I can't figure out what it is. How can a man in his twenties not want to have sex as often as his girlfriend? I'm starting to get discouraged. We used to have sex quite often. Should I be looking further into his reasons of "too stressed after work" or "just not in the mood?" We do spend quality time together, we read together, cuddle often and do more than just the mundane tasks of living together, but I just don't know what else to do to increase our sex. I know he always reads your column first just like I do, so maybe it will give him some insight to read what you think about our problem…and to understand how very frustrated I am. Thanks!
A: You want him to understand your frustration so you carefully consider your choices: (1) sit down together when you know you won't be interrupted and share your feelings, (2) play the Neil Diamond/Barbra Streisand "You Don't Bring Me Flowers" duet repeatedly until he cracks or (3) ask a sex columnist to publish your dilemma so that he will read it and get the hint. I would have selected choice 1, but thanks to readers like you who opt for choice 3, I'm able to keep my job and afford cute shoes. As such, I have nothing but love for you. I also have enormous empathy, having struggled to learn good communication skills myself. Plus, it may be that you are communicating beautifully but he isn't hearing you, thus making your sex-columnist plea a sensible wake-up call. First, ditch the "men should want sex all the time" assumptions. It's not true. Many men, like many women, go through phases (or lifetimes) when they want sex only sporadically. It happens. Second, sex commonly decreases in frequency among long-term couples. In part, it's sad and in part, it lets the world keep spinning. Imagine if we stayed in the initial throes of passion forever. We would be utterly unproductive people who neglect our housecleaning, children, friends and work in favor of becoming hermits inside our bedrooms who live for nothing but touching, licking, kissing and thrusting. I don't know why he wants sex less often. It could be because he's cheating, but it may also be because he is stressed, tired, simply not in the mood, depressed, experiencing medication side effects or, quite honestly, sick of being pressured to have sex. If you ask often, he may feel pressured to perform, which can be a total desire and erection downer. Consider letting him know that you are very interested in being sexual together, but that it's been difficult to keep initiating and that you'd like him to initiate the next time, whether that's an hour, day, week or month (yes, I said month) from now. You might even let him know that you'd like to explore ways of enhancing your sexuality with him, and ask if he'd be open to reading For Each Other: Sharing Sexual Intimacy (Signet, $7.99) together, as long as you commit to stop pressuring him and he commits to putting in more effort. It's a tricky but common problem and there is definitely reason to hope.
Q: I am a guy with a fetish for tickling women's feet. What is the best way to find women who enjoy this kind of activity? I have seen a dominatrix for this before, but it is just too expensive to keep doing. Do you know of any clubs?
A: The only club-oriented foot play I'm familiar with is at the men-only foot parties held on the third Saturday of every month at Touché (6412 N Clark St, 773-465-7400). Foot parties that involve women are rare. There were occasional mixed-gender footparties a few years back, but where, oh where, have they gone? If anyone knows, e-mail me—as all I came across were pricey escorts. Like it or not, more men than women cop to fetishes, and women know a good supply-and-demand scheme when they see it—meaning that even women who dig foot play often realize they can turn a profit. However, if you ask a woman nicely—especially in a long-term relationship where you've developed trust—she may let you do it, particularly if you offer to trade a nonsexual foot or back massage on another occasion. Make sure to establish the rules up front—in other words, don't masturbate onto her ticklish feet and pass it off as massage lotion unless she digs it. Comprende?
Q: Why is 69 a popular position? I find it incredibly awkward and not at all attractive. Am I missing something?
A: Perhaps 69 persists because people like to think they're having crazy, gymnastlike sex when really one person gets to lie lazily on her back and the other is simply facing the other way around. True, some like the sensations of simultaneous oral sex, but you can't ignore the difficulty of having a man on top thrusting his penis into his partner's mouth, or the fact that his scrotum may drop into his partner's eyes. And if things really get hot for one person, he or she may accidentally clamp down on the other one's bits. Forget awkward and meet painful. And yet, like the rest of sex, there are some amazing, fun, interesting feelings and visual angles to 69, which I guess is truly why it persists. If you don't like it, don't do it. But if you think you haven't given it enough credit, jump in the sack and try it again. You might like it.

We understand your challenges. Browse our Solutions Guide.
Esri offers a range of specialized tools for defense and intelligence organizations.
Change is rapidly coming to how the military develops, works with, and uses geospatial technology, and GIS is at the forefront of this transformation.
No longer is GIS just used as a specialized niche capability in military operations. Today, defense organizations directly embed geospatial capabilities into mainstream command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C4ISR) applications.
GIS professionals once created specialized products for use only at upper command levels. Today, powerful publication technologies on servers make geospatial capabilities available throughout an area of operations. With these netcentric operations, information moves quickly, for example, from the data provider in the field to an intelligence analyst at headquarters. This information is used for operations at all echelons in defense.
The net result: better, faster, and less expensive analysis and more informed decisions, as old, independent, and sometimes incompatible systems are phased out and replaced by integrated service-oriented architecture (SOA). GIS provides the key enabling technology for this transformation of C4ISR.
These stories show how defense and intelligence organizations use GIS to support C4ISR applications.

Thanks to our friends over at Wetpaint.com, who were nice enough to bring together a nice little collection of Gossip Girl set pics. Featured in the pictures are Penn Badgley, Blake Lively Ed Westwick and Michelle Trachtenberg.

The suit Ed Westwick is wearing is absolutely awesome. I'd love to be able to pull that thing off. I wonder where he got it? It's probably custom made or something like that. If it is, I'll need to find the person who made it or ask Ed himself to let me borrow it.

John Rich of Big N' Rich Pens a McCain Theme Song
With the Leftward bent that most of the music industry has, it's difficult for a Republican candidate to find a good theme song for their campaign–remember what happened when Reagan tried to use Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the USA"? Meanwhile, it's noticeably easier for Democrats to find one for their campaign, like Bill Clinton's use of Fleetwood Mac's "Don't Stop (Thinking About Tomorrow)". But the | Read More »

Do's and Don'ts of successful travel trips revealed!
Washington, Sept. 17 : Are your vacations more memorable for lost baggage and hasty sightseeing, instead of the excitement of discovering a new place or even just for relaxing?
A travel website, Budgettravel.com, has compiled a list of the common mistakes that you can avoid to ensure a wonderful vacation.
According to the site, not booking enough connection time between flights and not applying for passports early enough are two of the most common mistakes that can derail a trip.
Also, trying to do too much in one trip may not be the best idea.
The site has pointed out that you should consider staying in pricier hotels in the center of city you are planning to go to, rather than staying out in the suburbs and spending money and time on transportation.
Another common mistake is to select your hotel based on marketing photos, as carefully chosen snaps can make any property look attractive.

Sérgio Santos Mendes (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈsɛʁʒu ˈsɐ̃tuʒ ˈmẽdʒiʃ]; born February 11, 1941[1] in Niterói, Brazil) is a Brazilian musician. He has over fifty-five releases, and plays bossa nova heavily crossed with jazz and funk.[1] He was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Song in 2012 as co-writer of the song "Real In Rio" from the animated film Rio.
Mendes is married to Gracinha Leporace, who has performed with her husband since the early 1970s. He has collaborated with many artists through the years, including the Black Eyed Peas, with whom he re-recorded a version of his original breakthrough hit "Mas Que Nada".
Early career[edit]
The child of a physician in Niterói, Brazil, Mendes attended the local conservatory with hopes of becoming a classical pianist. As his interest in jazz grew, he started playing in nightclubs in the late-1950s just as bossa nova, a jazz-inflected derivative of samba, was emerging. Mendes played with Antonio Carlos Jobim (regarded as a mentor) and many U.S. jazz musicians who toured Brazil.
Mendes formed the Sexteto Bossa Rio and recorded Dance Moderno in 1961. Touring Europe and the United States, Mendes recorded albums with Cannonball Adderley and Herbie Mann and played Carnegie Hall. Mendes moved to the U.S. in 1964 and cut two albums under the Sergio Mendes & Brasil '65 group name with Capitol Records and Atlantic Records.
Sergio became full partners with Richard Adler, a Brooklyn-born American who had previously brought Bossa Trés plus two dancers, Joe Bennett and a Brazilian partner, to appear on The Ed Sullivan Show, in 1963. He was also accompanied by Antonio Carlos Jobim; Flavio Ramos, and Aloisio Olivera, a Record and TV producer from Rio. The Musicians Union, only allowed this group to appear on one TV show; one club appearance (Basin Street East) before ordering them to leave the U.S. When the new Group, Brasil '65 was formed, Shelly Manne, Bud Shank and other West Coast musicians got Sergio and the others into the local Musicians Union. Adler and Mendes formed Brasil '65, which consisted of Wanda Sá and Rosinha de Valença, as well as the Sergio Mendes Trio. The group recorded albums for Atlantic and Capitol.
Brasil '66[edit]
When sales were tepid, he replaced his Brazilian born vocalist Wanda de Sá with the distinctive voice of Chicago native Lani Hall (who learned Mendes' Portuguese material phonetically), switched to Herb Alpert's A&M label, and released Herb Alpert Presents Sergio Mendes and Brasil '66, an album that went platinum based largely on the success of the single "Mas Que Nada" (a Jorge Ben cover) and the personal support of Alpert, with whom Mendes toured regularly.
The original lineup of Brasil '66 was Mendes (piano), vocalists Lani Hall and Bibi Vogel (later replaced by Janis Hansen), Bob Matthews (bass), José Soares (percussion) and João Palma (drums). John Pisano guested as guitarist. This new line-up including Hansen then recorded two more albums between 1966–1968 (including the best-selling Look Around LP), before there was a major personnel change for their fourth album Fool on the Hill.[1]
Karen Philipp replaced Hansen as the second female vocalist, while veteran drummer Dom Um Romão teamed with Rubens Bassini to assume percussionist duties.Claudio Slon was to join the group as drummer in 1969, and played with Mendes for nearly a decade. Sebastiao Neto was the new bassist and Oscar Castro-Neves the guitarist. This line up had a more orchestrated and big band sound than their predecessors. Most significantly, in the early 1970s, lead singer Hall pursued a solo career and became Alpert's second wife.[1] Some accounts claim that Mendes was upset with Alpert for years for "stealing" Hall away from his group.
Though his early singles with Brasil '66 (most notably "Mas Que Nada") met with some success, Mendes really burst into mainstream prominence when he performed the Oscar-nominated Burt Bacharach and Hal David song "The Look of Love" on the Academy Awards telecast in April 1968. Brasil '66's version of the song quickly shot into the top 10, peaking at No. 4[2] and eclipsing Dusty Springfield's version from the soundtrack of the movie, Casino Royale. Mendes spent the rest of 1968 enjoying consecutive top 10 and top 20 hits with his follow-up singles, "The Fool on the Hill" and "Scarborough Fair." From 1968 on, Mendes was arguably the biggest Brazilian star in the world[1] and enjoyed immense popularity worldwide, performing in venues as varied as stadium arenas and the White House, where he gave concerts for both Presidents Lyndon B. Johnson and Richard Nixon.[1] The Brasil '66 group appeared at the World Expo in Osaka, Japan in June 1970.
Middle career[edit]
Mendes' career in the U.S. stalled in the mid-1970s, but he remained very popular in South America and Japan. His two albums with Bell Records in 1973 and 1974 followed by several for Elektra from 1975 on, found Mendes continuing to mine the best in American pop music and post-Bossa writers of his native Brazil, while forging new directions in soul with collaborators like Stevie Wonder, who wrote Mendes' R&B-inflected minor hit, "The Real Thing."
In 1983, he rejoined Alpert's A&M records and enjoyed huge success with a self-titled album and several follow-up albums, all of which received considerable adult contemporary airplay with charting singles. "Never Gonna Let You Go", featuring vocals by Joe Pizzulo and Leza Miller, equalled the success of his 1968 single "The Look of Love" by reaching No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart; it also spent four weeks atop the Billboard adult contemporary chart.[2] In 1984 he recorded the "Confetti" album, which had the hit songs "Olympia", which was also used as a theme song for the Olympic games that year and "Alibis". The '80s also found Mendes working with singer Lani Hall again on the song "No Place to Hide" from the Brasil '86 album, and as producer for her vocals on the title song for the James Bond film Never Say Never Again.
By the time Mendes released his Grammy-winning Elektra album Brasileiro in 1992, he was the undisputed master of pop-inflected Brazilian jazz. The late-1990s lounge music revival brought retrospection and respect to Mendes' oeuvre, particularly the classic Brasil '66 albums.
Later career[edit]
Timeless features a wide array of neo-soul and alternative hip hop guest artists, including The Black Eyed Peas, Erykah Badu, Black Thought, Jill Scott, Chali 2na of Jurassic 5, India.Arie, John Legend, Justin Timberlake, Q-Tip, Stevie Wonder and Pharoahe Monch. It was released February 14, 2006 by Concord Records.[1]
The 2006 re-recorded version of "Mas Que Nada" with The Black Eyed Peas had additional vocals by Gracinha Leporace (Mendes' wife); this version is included on Timeless. In Brazil, the song is also well known for being the theme song for the local television channel Globo's Estrelas. The Black Eyed Peas' version contains a sample of their 2004 hit "Hey Mama". The re-recorded song became popular on many European charts. On the UK Singles Chart, the song entered at No. 29 and rose to and peaked at No. 6 on its second week on the chart.

NFL Mock Draft: Geno Smith fits Chiefs' needs
The NFL Scouting Combine is set to commence this week, but teams already are beginning to show their hands regarding their draft intentions, based on the recent flurry of salary-cap cuts. Although some teams will turn to free agency to fill the voids created by the veteran departures, others will focus on filling their respective needs through the draft.
With my third mock draft, I decided to focus extensively on matching the best available player with each team's biggest needs, based on recent activity. While those needs certainly will change as free-agent movement begins in the next few weeks, I believe we can use these recent roster adjustments to make some strong assertions about each team's draft-day strategy. Given that premise, here is my latest mock draft:
Ignore the chatter about the lack of star quality at the quarterback position. While Smith is not in the same league as Andrew Luck or Robert Griffin III, he is head-and-shoulders above the other quarterbacks in this year's class, which earns him the nod at the No. 1 spot.
New coach Gus Bradley's aggressive scheme is predicated on getting pressure off the edges; Jones is the most explosive pass rusher in the draft.
General manager Reggie McKenzie has to retool the Raiders' aging defensive line by adding more dynamic players across the front. Moore totaled 12.5 sacks and 21 tackles for a loss in the ultra-competitive SEC.
The return of quarterback Michael Vick gives new coach Chip Kelly an explosive playmaker to guide the offense, but the Eagles would be wise to protect the brittle veteran with the top pass protector in the draft.
Kyle Vanden Bosch is no longer around, and Cliff Avril might depart via free agency, leaving the Lions without a legitimate threat on the edges. Werner is a high-motor rusher with strong hands and exceptional closing quickness.
New defensive coordinator Ray Horton wants to wreak havoc on opposing offenses with his blitz-heavy 3-4, but he'll need an explosive rusher like Mingo on the edges to set the table.
Addressing the quarterback situation is the Cardinals' top priority, but poor pass protection also contributed to the team's woes in 2012. Fisher is an ultra-athletic blocker with outstanding feet and lateral quickness.
The Bills could elect to take a wide receiver or inside linebacker, but nabbing a franchise-caliber quarterback is GM Buddy Nix's priority in this draft. Although Glennon is a limited athlete prone to making mistakes under duress, he is an A-plus arm talent with tremendous potential.
To bring back "ground and pound," the Jets must fortify the front line with big, physical blockers who can move defenders off the ball. Not only is Warmack a monster at the point of attack, he might be the best overall player in the draft.
Coach Mike Munchak wants to alleviate the pressure on quarterback Jake Locker by surrounding him with a dominant running game. Cooper would give the Titans an athletic interior blocker with the size, strength and athleticism to own the trenches.
New coach Mike McCoy's No. 1 priority is fixing quarterback Philip Rivers; he can begin the process by giving him an athletic left tackle with the lateral quickness to stalemate elite rushers on the blind side.
Quarterback Ryan Tannehill would love for the team to grab a legitimate No. 1 receiver with this pick, but Sean Smith's impending free agency makes cornerback a pressing need. Milliner is a rock-solid corner with outstanding instincts and ball skills.
To match up with the explosive offenses in the NFC South, coach Greg Schiano must add size, speed and athleticism in the back end. Rhodes is a physical corner with the size and length to battle the big-bodied receivers in the division.
The Panthers haven't had a dominant interior defender since Kris Jenkins departed years ago. Floyd is a Jenkins clone, with a high-revving motor and exceptional skills.
The shift to a 3-4 under new defensive coordinator Rob Ryan will require the Saints to find a hybrid rusher with outstanding speed and quickness to cause havoc off the edges. Jordan, a freakish athlete with intriguing rush skills, certainly fits the bill.
The proliferation of the passing game in the NFL means teams must have a safety with corner-like movement skills in the back end. Vaccaro is a rare find at the position, with elite cover skills overshadowing his prowess as a big hitter in the run game.
The potential loss of receiver Mike Wallace could lead coach Mike Tomlin to look for another explosive playmaker. Patterson has just one year of major college experience, but his speed and running skills could make him an intriguing replacement for Wallace.
New defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin will transition the Cowboys to a 4-3, but he needs a dominant presence in the middle to set the table for the defense. Lotulelei flashes disruptive potential, but defensive line coach Rod Marinelli and Kiffin will need to rev up Lotulelei's motor to get him to thrive in a Cowboys uniform.
GM Jerry Reese loves to invest high picks in the offensive and defensive lines to ensure dominance at the point of attack. Fluker is a potential difference maker as a road grader on the edge.
Quarterback Jay Cutler already has a legitimate No. 1 receiver in Brandon Marshall; adding a playmaking tight end would take the Bears' offense to another level. Ertz is a natural pass catcher with sneaky speed and burst as a middle-of-the-field weapon.
Ogletree's recent off-the-field incident will scare some teams away, but the Bengals have constructed a perennial playoff team by gambling on potential character risks with immense talent.
Coach Jeff Fisher has repeatedly said quarterback Sam Bradford needs a better supporting cast to thrive. Allen is a classic No. 1 receiver with the size, speed and running skills to dominate the game on the perimeter.
Kevin Williams is no longer a disruptive force in the middle, which makes it imperative for the Vikings to find a high-energy interior defender in this draft. Richardson is an ultra-athletic three-technique with remarkable quickness and burst.
Banks is a smooth cover man with a versatile game that fits into any system. Coach Chuck Pagano could use him as a matchup defender against the big, physical receivers prevailing in the AFC.
After watching the Seahawks' pass rush disappear following Chris Clemons' injury, coach Pete Carroll will make a strong push to add more athletic rushers to his lineup. Ansah is a super athlete with a limited football background. Based on the flashes he showed as a senior, his upside is through the roof.
For all of the jokes and snickers Te'o has endured since the girlfriend hoax came to light, the Packers would love to add an inside linebacker of his caliber to a defense that has slipped in recent years.
Andre Johnson remains one of the best receivers in the NFL, but he needs a quality complement on the opposite side to take some of the offensive load off his shoulders. Woods, who played in Marqise Lee's shadow during his final season at USC, is a polished receiver with a game that is suited for the pros.
The Broncos could elect to fortify their defensive line, but adding a standout middle linebacker would also greatly improve the defense, as well. Minter is a tackling machine with superb instincts and awareness.
With receiver Wes Welker set to test free agency, the Patriots would be wise to take a chance on the most dangerous slot man in college football. Austin has the quickness and burst to separate from nickel corners in space, and he is a big-play threat whenever he touches the ball in the open field.
GM Thomas Dimitroff is attempting to talk veteran tight end Tony Gonzalez out of retirement, but the Falcons still need to find a quality TE for the future in the draft. Eifert is an athletic pass catcher with a versatile game that allows him to align at multiple positions, creating mismatches.
A ball-hawking safety could be on the 49ers' wish list at this pick, but it would be tough to pass up on a stout interior defender like Hankins. The Ohio State standout pummels blockers at the point of attack, creating big-play opportunities for linebackers at the second level.
Losing Ed Reed would certainly affect the Ravens' pass defense, but a young, athletic defender like Reid could lessen the impact with his game-changing skills.
