hurtful comments people've made about your hair
I was wondering if anyone had people make rude comments about their curly hair that really stayed with them? We can commisserate together! SOrry if this has been done.
I'm 26 now but these comments have stuck with me and given me a really negative image of my hair:
1 Walking down the school bus aisle I overheard one guy say "you know whose hot (referring to me)," guy 2 says "Eww with that huge mass of hair," "guy 1 says "WHo cares just put a bag over her head she has huge..." :evil: :evil: :evil:
2 In JH 1 of my best friends was running her hands through my hair. I asked her to stop saying it messed up my curls and I was having a bad hair day. SHe said "You *ARE* a bad hair day" :oops: :roll: In HS this same girl said, after I came to school with a temp straight style "YOu should keep it that way...."
3 In JH this boy said my hair felt like "ruberized sheep wool." :shock: :x
4 In preshool this girl put mud in my hair. And made some crappy comment that escapes me now.
5 When I was 10 I went shopping w/my grandma who has fine silky hair. WHenever a sales lady waited on us srandma would say "Look what the wind does to our hair"--desperately trying to smooth down my locks. Resistance is futile grandma
6 In hs my boyfriend saw a childhood picture of me. He said "Oh my God yo had a FRO". THere's nothing wrong with fros, but It wasn't anywhere close to a fro. Ignorance, ignorance.
7 In 7th grade a stylist chopped off 3/4 of my long hair when I'd asked for a trim. When I walked in a classroom to deliver a letter, everyone simultaneuosly gasped--DAAAAAAMMMMMN her hair is so frizzy. DAAAAMMMMN.
8 In the locker room in JH the girls would always tell me to get a relaxer.....unsolicited advice.
ANyway, I feel better now. SOrry for the vent. ANy similar experiences?

Botticelli Venus Posts: 109Registered UsersSounds like THEY need to relax!
I went to a convent school and the nuns HATED my hair. It was like that character in Jane Eyre where she has naturally curly hair so they cut it off. My mom cut it off till I was about 8, then gave me home perms in an effort to "control" it and then finally after a straight haired "pal" said with a look like "the patient is dying" -- "I don't know WHAT you're going to do about those CURLS" my mom resorted to straightening it chemically which made me the only little kid in school with split ends.
These days there's a girl at work who tells me she has thick "corkscrew curls" if she didn't straighten her hair -- and when I tell her I like my hair curly she says "You DO??!" Another girl has curly hair but straightens it sometimes and hates her curls too.
At my last job the first time the manager saw my hair curly she said it looked like I'd had a big chunk cut out of it. But then she had some pretty weird hairstyles, and another person who worked there said they preferred my hair curly.Julie Benz: "I really loved on Angel when we would do the flashbacks and I'd have the big, wild, messy long hair that was thick and full and that's how God meant for me to look."0
sugarsweetkk08 Posts: 1Registered Users[/b]I've had my share of bad comments about my hair. Which is why I still am very self conscious of it. I'm not as bad as I used to be but I remember being the sixth grade and the guy I had the hugest crush on said he didn't like me because " my hair was like a big mop." I was so upset, my mom didn't help ,she told me to cut it short and straighten it daily, that's what she did. I don't think I wore it down for months after that.*The Falcons gonna fly all over ya, so bring your best game cuz we're gonna bring our best game. See ya there*

EuroCurly Posts: 7Registered UsersMy hair isn't even that curly (some days I'm more of a wavy), but when I was little, some children at school called me Zulu because of my hair. I was the only one whose hair wasn't completely straight, and that, in combination with my rather full lips, prompted them to call me that. At first I didn't even understand it; I thought of Zulu's as proud warriors and didn't understand that it was meant as an insult!
My grandma, who had straight hair herself, never understood my hair. She was always complaining that it looked too frizzy and always wanted to brush and comb it in order to make it look 'better'. I can remember that it always hurt so much when she tried to comb it, and now I know that all that brushing actually caused frizz!0
I had a pretty difficult time with my hair as a teenager. Straight hair was in then (the late 60s) and there were not a lot of styling options then...I used to roll my hair up in giant rollers and sit under a big hood dryer. That gave it a semi-acceptable "flip" -- ever see the Patty Duke show? But if it rained the whole thing just fuzzed out. Lots of bad hair days.
All I can say is that as time goes by, 1) you will get better control of your hair and 2) your peers will grow up and stop being such jerks.0

--Yay! Actually, it was not till college that I started to get hair complements!
People were just more mature, and if they didn't like my hair they didn't say anything about it.0
Yes, and teenagers can be savage about anyone differing from the norm. People get more relaxed about appearance as they grow up and mature (we hope).0
Mip Posts: 233Registered UsersI was one of very few girls in primary school with curly hair and I got teased a fair bit. The main insults were 'birds' nest' and 'bush' and 'you look like you've stuck your fingers in an electric socket'. It was more annoying than hurtful, but I so wished for straight hair. I was always being asked if I curled my hair too.0
Tamrin Posts: 43Registered UsersI got called "Sambo", "Sheep," "Poodle" and "Frizzball" on a regular basis when I was in elementary school and junior high school. I too was a kid during the sixties, when super-straight hair was popular. So I remember the big rollers and the flip.
My mother, who has fine hair with a little bit of wave, used to curse when combing my hair out. She always told me "your hair looks so messy -- don't you ever comb it?" even if I'd just combed it five minutes earlier! Little did we know that the constant combing and brushing was what was making my hair look so messy and frizzy! Now, she complains that I use gel in my hair; that it looks "hard." Well, I have to use gel, or it'll be a huge mass of frizz! Can't win with some people. Other people compliment me on my curls, and her idea of being helpful is to suggest, "That girl who straightened your hair a few years back did such a nice job, why don't you go back to her?" Because my hair was damaged and breaking off, maybe? And because having my hair straight seems kinda flat and dull to me now?0
Rednaturalcurls Posts: 1,814Registered Users Curl NeophyteI was called poodle, frizzy, all the generic comments but I think the worst was someone stuck a sticker on my back that said "I have nappy hair" I am a pale white girl so that does not apply nor would I ever say anyone else has nappy hair because I think it's mean. I also heard cracks about how much hairspray, etc I used. No one seemed to grasp that at the time it was the only way I knew to keep it under control. I tried to straighten for awhile but that was just too much work and if it rained or the wind blew too hard, forget it. I spent pretty much all my school years in a ponytail or bun. Sometimes I wish the people that made those comments could see my now but then I think their opinions probably haven't changed much, too small minded.Hair Type: mix of 3's, growing out an angled bob, color-treated red.

Mitche Posts: 2Registered UsersSome "friends" in high school used to call me "tumbleweed" because they said I looked like a tumbleweed with eyes.
My mother always asks me if I stuck my finger in an electric socket to get my hair to look like that (I got my hair from her and she usually puts hers up in a really tight bun because she doesn't like the curl). :evil:0
musing_curls Posts: 2Registered Userswhoa! My fellow curlies have had it a lot worse than i. I haven't gotten any comments about my hair, all my friends see to love it, strangers tell me they envy it, i even had one ask to touch it. But then i didnt start wearing my hair curly untill i was in eighth grade, so i suppose i was mostly past the 'teasing' age in school.0
backtonature Posts: 5Registered UsersJust last year - out of the blue my mom said "With that nice job you have you should be able to go to a good (expensive) stylist and get a good cut or something" (I've had $120 hair visits, and I'm 37 so I just laughed) but...I was in the process of growing it longer, and she made me feel so insecure, so I went and had it all cut off in a "shirley henderson" Brady bunch cut, and my husband hated it. I have very thin, fine curly hair, and all my life she (and others) kept telling me that people with thin hair should NEVER grow it long. The boys in school said I looked like a boy.
My husband talked me into growing it back out, and now that I've adopted a modified CG routine without blow dryers and curling irons, my hair seems a lot healthier, and he loves my shoulder lenghth curls. The women at work all said, I thought you liked your hair short, are you growing it out, and I proudly say "yes", and they men at work seem to notice me more which helps my confident. So I'm learning to love me...2a/3a thin, fine, half wavy/half curly.. half crazy

my boyfriend like to "tousel" my hair. he rubs the palm of his hand all over it super fast and i hate it! i tell him to stop because hes messing up my hair and he always laughs and says that you cant mess up my hair. that makes me angry because rubbing my curly helmet DOES mess it up and makes it frizzy!!!0
Triscurl Posts: 1Registered UsersBeing in a group of friends that are all anime/japanophiles (and all of them, save my boyfriend, like asian women with "hair they can run their hands through". It's fun to hang out with only boys![/sarcasm]) I get quite a few comments. The other Bush is my current nickname :evil:
The one that's affected me the most through my life, however, was the first day of 3rd grade. After asking a hairstylist to layer my then waist-length hair as it had been previously (and even showing pictures! OF MYSELF!) she proceeded to chop it all above my ears. The horror. Poodle, clown, you name it. Blech. Children are so cruel.3b/c, sometimes a just to spite me

plink Posts: 103Registered UsersAll thru grade school(you know, the formative years) my hair was cut above my ears cause all the hair stylists would say" She has such difficult hair" and " She can't grow it long, it will just grow out and be a bush".Got mistaken for a boy all the time. Didn't help that my sister had loong straight hair and never let me forget it.
But the most hurtful was from a guy I really adored. He said "Can't you do something about that BIG hair". Ha. That was when I was taming it. Serves him right. He's pretty bald now.
I look for ways to make my hair bigger and wilder now. Don't know if it's maturity or stupidity but I love my hair.I have finally realized I look my best when my hair tells me how it is going to fall, and I just make suggestions.
MonnieKuh Posts: 1Registered UsersAs a junior in high school, I'm definitely no stranger to insults about my hair. I was another one of those who had boy-short hair in elementary school, and it didn't grow out gracefully, to say the least. I had so many insults about my hair in middle school. Now, I absolutely hate it when people tell me "you'd be so beautiful if you'd only straighten your hair!"
I'm a shoulder-length 3b/3c, very dark brown.Dark brown, 3b/3c. It's shoulder length at the moment.0
Hang in there, MonniKuh. By the end of the school year they'll all be jealous, since waves and curls are coming into style in a big way.0
iguana187 Posts: 1Registered UsersI've heard all the same horrible remarks as everyone else as a child. People can be really rude. The great thing is now that I know how to deal with my curls and they are full and natural, I get tons of positive remarks every day. My hair is the first thing people notice about me and I've had several offers from people who want to buy it. (weird, I know.) Anyway, my point is that when you embrace your curls, other people will start to notice how wonderful they are! :-)0

People SAY that to you?
Trying to think of a snappy comeback0
i always say, "ARE YOU GOING TO DO IT FOR ME?" and then i let them know that i have to be up for either work or school at 6:15 a.m. and that they will have to straighten it every day since its so curly.
i actually had 1 person try. and she failed. needless to say, she didnt make another comment about straightening my hair ever again. and thats when i had a realxer!!! (ive got super curly hair)0
Curly_topps Posts: 1Registered UsersYeah - people wouldn't let me play hide and seek at one point, because i had curly hair, it was different you see. Heaven forbid - i might have spoilt the game.
One of my supposed "best" friends, once told me that my hair isn't curly it's frizzy. She was one of those, who had poker straight hair (flat and limp hehe) any slight bit of volume in her hair, she'd throw a fit because it was "frizzy". I tried to reassure her, "it's not frizzy, look at my hair" she replied with "but your hair is always frizzy, it s'posed to be".Curly Girly x x0
Medusacurl Posts: 3Registered UsersAfter reading all the posts on hurtful hair comments I had to contribute.
I actually didn't know I had wavy/curly hair until I was in college! This is due to my father's girlfriend (an unnamed hairdresser), who forced me to brush through my hair everyday with a huge paddle brush, which resulted in a hairdo not unsimilar to the ones you see on the garnier fructis or infusium commercials. She even had my hair spiral-permed when I was 9 to make it look neater, which only resulted in me having long dry, frizzy poodle curls. Like I said before, until I moved out of my house in college, I didn't know I had curly hair. So alas, all throughout junior high and highschool I would brush through my hair mulitple times a day, hoping it would 'calm down' and just look like everyone else's instead of like a [email protected] hobo's. Ironically this made my hair even worse and resulted in choice comments like the following:
1) Unnamed brainless football jock (jr. high)- Signed in my yearbook so affectionately--- "Comb your hair some more b3tch!"
-Thanks buddy, I hope you have no hair on your head to comb when our 10 year renuion comes around!!!!
2) Two pancaked-on makeup artists at an expensive NYC salon where I was receiving an expensive makeover- "Why is your hair all curly? Oh my god the stylist forget to straighten out her hair! Call him up here now he has to fix it!"
-Sorry ladies. I wanted my hair to be natural, unlike your flat hair! Maybe that sounds apalling to you, but I think it is horrifying that you need to spend an hour a day doing your hair and then go to work and force everyone into a similar state of hair slavery.
PS- the ladies also reminded me that my eyebrows were "f6cked up!" Thanks Girls!
3) Finally my sweet boyfriend. He's the one who crowned me 'Medusa". It took 15 minutes to explain to him why this nickname was not a compliment, and he still doen't get it!
-thanks for the vent and all the advice on the board. I'm praying for a miracle with my next haircut. Has anyone on the board went to the Hair Cult salon in Hoboken, NJ
-Andrea-somewhere btwn a 2B and 2C, embracing the wave0
years ago alot of people were asking me if I wanted to straighten my hair. I was curious at one point and let a friend of my sister's blow dry it straight. It took hours, I thought it looked horrible. Two hours later, it barely looked like anything was done to it. Not a lot of people saw that particular hair style, so some continued to ask me if I ever wanted to straighten it. No one has said anything for a while now until I started at my current job and a coworker started saying that she wants to see my hair straight. I think she even gave up now. That same coworker looked at me like I'm nuts when I tried to explain to her why you should not brush curly hair when its dry. Another one actually wondered how I can style it in the morning if I dont brush it. (because you know, if you dont brush it in the morning its gross!!)
For years, I hated my curls, it just gets out of control and impossible to style. I'm just starting to like my hair, I'm learning how to deal with it, what to do and not to do. Next straight haired person who asks me to straighten my hair, will be asked to curl theirs0

I havent been there, but if you do end up going, can you please post about it, or at least pm me if you like it or not. I'm looking for a good salon in NJ also Going to Ouidad next weekend (1st time), but its way to expensive to go there regularly, I dont even know how thats gona turn out :?0
sydneyk Posts: 4Registered UsersAndrea's post really cracks me up... very funny, yes I also sometimes wish people who tease me about my hair will lose it all prematurely hahahah....
My old housemate in college called me lionhead... that's really stuck with me
One of my guy friends who was standing behind me once said you need condition your hair majorly
Off and on my colleagues will comment that my hair is really really messy... they just don't understand... humph0
DolphinCurls Posts: 370Registered UsersI also had a friend with extremely fine hair that would always complain about frizz even if one strand was out of place. When I tried to reply, she's like your hair is always like that. It hurt me.
Until recently, my mom insisted I straighten my hair even though there were days when I wanted to show my curls and waves off. She was embarassed by my unruly hair (even though it's HER fault) and made me straighten it which made it frizz out even worse. Now that I have learned to use a gel and diffuser, it doesn't frizz out that much. Because I used to straighten my hair, nobody could complain about the curls. But they always complained about the frizz.3A/2C combination of ringlets and waves :nike:0
sweetpeacurli Posts: 343Registered UsersI've never had issue with my curls. My whole family is curly and, I have to say (modesty isn't my strong suit), I think I have the nicest curls of the group. People always used to tell me that they loved my curls, that I was so lucky, etc., etc. I asked hairdressers to straighten my hair after trims a couple of times just for fun, but I knew I'd be going back to being my curl-proud self the next day.
Then for whatever reason I got into straightening it. I suppose I was in a "phase." I wanted something different. Most people I knew complained about my straight hair and told me they liked it better curly. After about a year, I got sick of the hassle and started wearing it curly again. I love it and can't imagine going back to wearing it straight anytime soon.
Only one friend has given me any grief over it, and she makes me so angry that I just want to scream. She shows me infomercials for "miracle" products when she knows I'm not interested. She brings it up on occasion. I keep telling her how much I like my curls and how NOT interested in straightening I am. At first I tried to be polite - it takes a long time, it's damaging, etc., etc. Now I just snap at her. I don't like my hair straight! The worst thing she ever said was that straight hair "looks so nice if you're dressing up." Like curly hair is lazy and too casual, and makes someone look like a slob. That's the only time I've ever really felt angry at someone for their attitude towards curls... so I guess I've been very lucky to have curly support around.
The cutest thing ever was when my darling little brother told me he didn't like my hair straight because he felt like I was being unfaithful to our curly family. What a doll he is!Sulfate and Silicone-free since 2005CO-wash convert since October 2010

PoodleDoo Posts: 24Registered UsersI think we've all had bad experiences growing up with our curly hair. I really don't recall being teased. My mom used to keep my hair super-short when I was little.....I looked like a pixie. Then in junior high....I started letting my hair grow, but I didn't know how to take care of it.....I brushed it all the time, which made it frizzy and BIG. I have some really bad school pictures!!!
As I had said before in another post, I really didn't get a handle on my hair until I was about 20. I finally grew my hair long enough to where I love it. It took years of fighting and trying every product on the market and learning how to style it, but it finally looks they way I want it.
Now, one of my adult friends gave me the nickname "Poodledoo"....he calls me that all the time....so that's how I log in here.0
SCG Posts: 5,416Registered UsersGah, I had so many!
Let's see...
1) In 7th grade, I attended a private art class. I was the only person in the class with curly hair, just so you know. A couple of hours before the class, I had gotten my hair cut. As I usually did, I asked the stylist to straighten it for me, since I thought (then) it looked best on me. One of the girls came up to me (you know, poker straight absolutely NO body) and said "OHMIGOSH, Sarah, you look soooo much prettier now that you straightened your hair, you should do that more often!" I remember wanting to slap her across the face, but I just said "Euh... thanks..." and walked away half wanting to cry.
2) It was actually a couple of days after the previous story, just so you know. I was going upstairs after a shower, and after using my hair products and stuff, my brother (8 at the time) walked up to me and said "Eww, sarah, I hate it when you make your hair curly again, you're not as pretty." I didn't even say anything at that, I just sort of walked away.
It made me feel good though, when I got millions of compliments on my newly cut curly hair, even from people I didn't know. :-D

A winner was selected from 68 designs submitted by 27 freelance designers.
For over 10 years, we have relied on our product logo and somewhat ignored the company logo. We are looking for something that is fresh and "ORIGINAL" - we want to avoid the suggestion of a generic logo that looks like it was generated from a logo catalog.

We like the colors of our product (HTML #6cabe7 ) but are open to other color combinations. Multiple colors are welcome.
Desired Style:
WeÂ'd like the logo to include the name of our company "Gladstone" but this is not mandatory.
We need something that is original. Our company name "Gladstone" could be broken into 'fun' (glad) and 'rock' (stone). If this could be pulled off
Accepted File Formats:
Vector (Adobe Illustrator or Corel Draw 10) or EPS.
Though our main product is software for fairs and expos, we do not want this reflected in the company logo since we also do business outside of this industry. Rather, any graphics in the logo should be generic (shapes, expressions, etc.) but original. Being that we are an information technology company, a shape representing such could be appropriate but not needed.
I will guarantee a winner will be selected from the entries received.

Many people react negatively to the word theology, believing that it involves dry, fruitless arguments about minute points of doctrine. Yet as Dr. R.C. Sproul argues, everyone is a theologian. Any time we think about a teaching of the Bible and strive to understand it, we are engaging in theology. Therefore, it is important that we put the Bible's varied teachings together in a systematic fashion, using proper, time-tested methods of interpretation so as to arrive at a theology that is founded on truth.
That is precisely what Dr. Sproul does in Everyone's a Theologian: An Introduction to Systematic Theology. This book, taken from his popular teaching series Foundations, is anything but a dry discussion of minute points of doctrine. Dr. Sproul, demonstrating his trademark ability to make complex subjects easy to understand, surveys the basic truths of the Christian faith, reminding us once more of what God is like and of what He has done for His people in this world and the next.

David Hirshey writes regularly for Deadspin about soccer.
It's a good thing that Mel Gibson didn't wander into Kinsale Tavern this past weekend looking for a pint of Fosters, because Ol' Braveheart would have left with a Star of David tattooed on his forehead and a half pound of creamed herring shoved up his ass. Yes, this was the wrong weekend to piss off the Soccer Jews.
Never mind controlling the media and Hollywood; that's child's play. For a few glorious days, we had our swarthy hands clutched around the throat of the disbelieving soccer world.
It started early Saturday morning when in the 85th minute of the United States' 1-0 win over South Africa, Jonathan Bornstein replaced Benny Feilhaber. Jew for Jew, straight up. When was the last time that happened in any American sport, let alone soccer? Only Simmons can tell us whether Gabe Kapler ever went in for Kevin Youkilis, and he's obviously still nursing his wounds after New England lost to Houston in the MLS final that I joined all of you in not watching.
Then in an upset that no doubt made Vladimir Putin want to poison the taps at Kinsale (but won me a few shekels at 6-1 odds), Israel upset heavily favored Russia 2-1 to save England from elimination in the European Championships — at least until Wednesday, when the Three Lions find a way to lose to Croatia .
The final matzo ball in this soup was dropped yesterday afternoon when Israeli midfielder Dori Arad - who comes from legendary soccer genes (Mine! He's a cousin on my mother's side, but I'm not biased) — took UConn to the Promised Land (No. 1 in the country) after his two goals gave the Huskies a 2-1 victory over Notre Dame and the Big East championship.
"Let's face it, we are the Chosen Ones, " exulted Relegation Zone Mikey, forgetting for the moment that he is a Tottenham fan. "Deal with it."
Not everyone can, of course. The English, for instance, still think they're owed for a little thing called 1948, and all last week the land that gave us Shylock was convinced that Israel would sell them out. Frankly, I wish we had, because England doesn't deserve their good luck. They are a crap team with a clown for a manager who, with Israel winning, was spared one final jolt of the electric cattle prod that the British tabloids were holding to his ball sack.
With England's Euro fate hinging on the result, Kinsale was packed with Brits who otherwise would sooner line up to be circumcised than watch a game between Russians and Israelis. When, just before kickoff, the camera panned to a shot of Chelsea's gazillionaire Russian owner Roman Abramovich smiling in the stands, the Brits in the bar all started shouting that the fix was in.
The theory goes something like this. Ambramovich is already subsidizing the salary of Russia's coach Gus Hiddink and was prepared to offer the Israel players money, a couple of oil wells and All You Can Eat At The Natalie Portman Buffet to lay down their boots and let the Russians waltz into Euro. The theory was further bolstered by the following factors :
a) Israel had nothing to play for, having been eliminated in their last game;
b) they were missing their best player Yossi Benayoun, who was injured;
c) they were grateful to Hiddink's brother who helped save Jewish families from the Holocaust.
No one seemed to remember two things:
a) Ambramovich is a Jew and something of an Israel groupie, even plucking his current butt-boychick coach Avram Grant from its ranks;
b ) The Israelis relish proving the world wrong.
Of course, none of this mattered when, in the 92nd minute with the game tied at 1-1, Barda, who had scored Israel's first goal, released substitute Omar Golan with a seeing-eye ball that bisected the Russian offside trap. As Golan cooly beat both the keeper and the conspiracy theorists — Goooooooolaaaaaaan! — Kinsale burst into song. This wasn't the usual boozy chorus of "God Save The Queen," but one that I had never before heard in an Irish pub. Yes, they were singing "Hava Nagila."

Allison Kasic
An educational expert is applauding an Illinois university's approach to Title IX compatibility.
Allison Kasic of the Independent Women's Forum calls Title IX "the granddaddy of all gender equity concerns." Originally passed in 1972, the law is designed to eliminate gender discrimination in federally funded schools.
For example, if a school has a student body that evenly split between the two genders, then the school's athletes must reflect those percentages. Unfortunately, Kasic says men's sports programs are usually cut in order to meet Title IX compliance -- essentially punishing boys in order to advance girls. But Western Illinois University has been able to comply with Title IX demands without out having to hurt their men's sports teams, according to Kasic.
"Rather than simply defaulting to this sort of bean-counting mentality of proportionality where you say, you know, 55 percent of our student body is female, [so] that means 55 of our athletes must also be female, they are going for a much more flexible approach that I think will be great for other schools to look at," she contends. "And they are using comprehensive interest surveys, basically asking their student body, 'What sports are you capable of playing? What sports do you want to play?' And they are using that data with the department of education to show that they are in compliance under Title IX."
Kasic believes many schools have been reluctant to take this approach out of a fear of lawsuits. Recently the University of Delaware demoted their men's indoor track team from varsity status to club status in order to comply with Title IX.

Oh thanks God. There was no Pitt Porn at Cannes this year and there's been no Pitt Porn for months and it's been a hot dry summer and now finally, finally they took the porn out for a ride and everything else stopped. All in service of course of Salt. Both Variety and the Hollywood Reporter have given Salt solid early reviews but what's most critical, obviously, is the box office.
Will the Jolie open big?
The Jolie is the ONLY woman this summer shouldering that responsibility at the movies. Because she can. And this is the Jolie I get hard for. This is the Brange I get hard for.
Here they are, in full sales mode, at the LA premiere last night, the most spectacular version of themselves that we've seen in a long, long time even with her crazy skinny legs. Goddamn that face. And her skin. And her glow. And his HOT has come back.
This is why it was futile complaining about that beard. It's not like he didn't know. When you look like him, you do that to f-ck around. Yeah, I'll be ugly for sh-ts and giggles. Because the minute I decide not to be ugly there's no one else who can touch it.
Study the gait, always the gait, study the way he leads her, the styling, the open neck, the three piece, even how he holds his shoulders, extends his hand, positions his arms… it's Man.
There's no trumping this. You can't. Unless Richard Burton comes back from the dead, really, who can?
Sigh. Love starting the day with True Movie Stars.
PS. Note that Angelina ordered the dad and the brother to come for support. That Morton book is due out soon.

Sponsor expands backing of RCR's Austin Dillon, famous No. 3
FORT WORTH, Texas — Austin Dillon will continue to race in the NASCAR Nationwide Series with the famous No. 3 on the side of his Richard Childress Racing car, but it will have a different look in 2013.
Instead of having a variety of different sponsors and paint schemes, Dillon's car will have sponsorship from AdvoCare, a nutrition and weight-loss company, for the entire 2013 Nationwide season. Dillon, the grandson of team owner Richard Childress, races the No. 3 made famous by seven-time Cup champion Dale Earnhardt.
Dillon has sponsorship from AdvoCare, Bass Pro Shops and American Ethanol in 2012, with AdvoCare sponsoring 20 of the 33 events. While RCR and Dillon plan to keep an association with all three companies next season, AdvoCare will be on the hood for all events.
AdvoCare's Rob Graph said Friday at Texas Motor Speedway that having the popular No. 3 was important.
— NASCAR Texas preview: Nationwide race Saturday, Sprint Cup race Sunday
"We've built some equity from the black No. 3 car," Graph said. "We've gotten so much value out of having 20 races, having the full 33 will excite our distributors."
In his rookie season, Dillon is third in the Nationwide Series standings, 26 points behind leader and teammate Elliott Sadler. He won the Camping World Truck Series championship before moving to Nationwide this year.
Graph said the company is in discussions with RCR about sponsorship for Dillon to run the Sprint Cup Series in 2014 and 2015.
Childress, whose organization has three full-time Nationwide teams this year, said RCR will have three full-time teams in 2013 even though Sadler and sponsor One Main Financial are expected to leave after this season. Sadler is expected to move to Joe Gibbs Racing next season.

Colorado State women's soccer eager for second season
Bill Hempen laughed as he recalled a memory of his first season as the head coach of Colorado State's brand new women's soccer program.
"We were handing out name tags at the first practice," Hempen said. "We didn't know anybody."
When Hempen was hired by CSU in February 2013, he was racing the clock. He was given five months to build the program from scratch and have it ready to play that fall, a giant undertaking that included warp-speed recruiting, scheduling and promoting.
"I said, 'If you agree to do that, you are more crazy than I thought,'" said Jeff Hooker, the University of Denver coach and a close friend of Hempen. "I told him to be prepared to be as frustrated as you've ever been in your years of coaching."

Directed with a sure, sensitive hand by Nick Cassavetes (The Notebook), it is an actors' showcase built on a moral dilemma. But at its most basic, it's just a good cry.
The Fitzgeralds are coping, through good humor and positive attitude, with a sick child. But we can't see the cost.
Mom ( Cameron Diaz) is maniacally focused. Dad ( Jason Patric) is a loving breadwinner with a ready smile. But the leukemia that may kill Kate (Sofia Vassilieva) is sucking up all the attention. Brother Jesse (Evan Ellingson) is lost in the vortex of Kate's illness.
Anna, 11 ( Abigail Breslin) has had enough. She's the youngest, the child who was "engineered," she narrates, a kid they had who would provide the fetal cells and bone marrow that might give Kate a chance. She may love her sister, but she's willing to hire a lawyer she's seen on TV ( Alec Baldwin) to sue to stop the procedures that dominate her life.
My Sister's Keeper has many ways it could go wrong at this point. But Cassavetes, working from a Jodi Picoult novel, never makes a bad move. Sympathies shift as we see what every member of this barely functional family had to deal with for over a decade. The story's structure -- many of the characters narrate their points of view -- moves the film along and leaves room for great acting.
Diaz gives one of the best performances of her career as the "villain" of the piece, an uncompromising fighter. Baldwin is on the money, as always, but so is Breslin, who has turned Little Miss Sunshine into a career of character turns that show she can hold her own with the best.
Vassilieva anchors the film with a playful, soulful presence. She makes Kate a real teenager who is keenly aware of what her illness is costing those she loves.
Even the many montages set to mournful pop ballads never cross into maudlin. Cassavetes balances the ethical debate with teenage rites of passage, the grim pallor of death with humor.
Films that present a moral dilemma and make us consider the unthinkable are as rare as bargain popcorn in the summer. Cassavetes manages that feat and turns this weeper into a keeper.

Pilz is expanding the safety gate system PSENslock to include two new product types: one type offers expanded diagnostic functions, while the other type enables OSSD outputs (Output Signal Switching Device) to be switched independently from the guard locking device. So PSENslock can either provide faster diagnostics or greater design freedom, depending on the task.
Ostfildern, 9 Apr 2015
A plus for diagnostics and design freedom
PSENslock provides safety gate monitoring with electromagnetic process guarding for gates, flaps and covers in one compact product.
The new type with expanded diagnostic function provides an additional benefit, particularly in application areas in which several PSENslock are used. Users can immediately detect where a guard locking device has not been activated, due to contamination for example. This saves time, due to fast diagnostics in the event of a fault.
The second new type of safety gate system enables the OSSDs (Output Signal Switching Device) to switch independently from the state of guard locking. As a result, users have greater flexibility and design scope when implementing their application.
PSENslock are designed for applications up to PL e of EN ISO 13849-1, SIL 3 of EN/IEC 62061.
The safety gate system is open, enabling it to be connected to all standard evaluation devices as well as to Pilz control technology – the safety relays PNOZ, the configurable control systems PNOZmulti and the automation system PSS 4000. Series connections with safe sensor technology PSEN from Pilz – safety gate systems PSENslock, PSENsgate and the coded safety switch PSENcode – are also possible.

Fairfax Media confirmed today that it has completed the sale of its stake in New Zealand online auction house Trade Me for $616 million, and dipped straight back into the sector with the acquisition of tech investment firm, Netus, for an undisclosed sum.
Fairfax, which publishes the Sydney Morning Herald and The Age, paid $NZ700 million for the entire Trade Me business in 2006.
Fairfax Media chief executive Greg Hywood said on Tuesday that the sale's proceeds would "provide us with a very strong balance sheet and the financial flexibility to invest and complete the company's structural transformation".
The sale cuts Fairfax's net debt below $200 million.
While the Trade Me sale was supported by some of Fairfax's major institutional shareholders, it also deprives the company of a key source of digital earnings.
The Netus acquisition – which is understood to be in the tens of millions of dollars – is designed to address this.
Netus founder, Daniel Petre, said the company will be charged with finding ''investments that can benefit from the traffic Fairfax can point at new businesses''.
He said Netus will be looking for opportunities that ''have the potential to move the dial in a reasonably short period'' which he identified as three years.
Earlier this week, Mr Hywood said the company is looking for small scale digital acquisitions.
Netus will also focus on helping Fairfax's current digital business achieve better results.
''We think there is some scope here as well,'' Mr Petre said.
Netus claims success with previous investments like ReachLocal and Travel苏州美睫培训, with an average internal rate of return (IRR) across its investment portfolio of 50 per cent.
Netus currently owns a 27 per cent stake in online video ads business, The Video Network, and 85 per cent of digital publisher Allure Media. Fairfax announced on Friday that it has acquired the other 15 per cent of Allure.
Mr Petre and Netus chief Alison Deans, both worked with the Kerry Packer-backed tech investment firm ecorp and helped develop eBay's local operations which Ms Deans headed.
Mr Petre set-up Netus in 2005 with a $40 million investment from Fairfax rival, Rupert Murdoch-owned News Ltd.
News sold its half share of Netus in May this year for $22.3 million, saying the company wanted to focus its resources on ''larger opportunities than those within the scope of Netus.''
This year, Fairfax announced plans to cut more than 1900 staff and take about $235 million in structural costs out of the business. This includes plans to close its largest print plants in Sydney and Melbourne, turning the Herald and The Age into compacts, and introducing a metered model to charge digital subscribers for access to these mastheads.
At the shareholder meeting, Fairfax chairman Roger Corbett said a break-up, or demerger, of the core media business was ruled out after detailed analysis as it would not add to shareholder value, and would undermine future value creation.

The conceptual founder of Shabbat.com and senior director for Olami, Rabbi Klatzko brings over two decades of visionary leadership, staunch support of Israel, and Jewish activism to the project.
A native of Cleveland, Ohio, Rabbi Klatzko received his rabbinic ordination from the prestigious Mir Yeshiva in Brooklyn, New York. At the Mir, he was known for his exceptional diligence in his studies and sterling character traits- both of which garnered him the respect and admiration of the famed Dean of the Yeshiva, the world-famous sage, Rabbi Shmuel Berenbaum, ZTL. After completing his studies, Rabbi Klatzko accepted an offer to serve as Rabbi of the historic Agudath Israel synagogue of Brooklyn, New York. After seven years of galvanizing the community towards greater levels of Jewish living and expression, he began a three year stint as the Rabbi of a distinguished congregation in Perth Amboy, New Jersey.
In what at the time was perceived as a bold move, 1999 saw the Klatzko family move to California so that he could accept the position of Campus Rabbi at UCLA. As a hands-on and loveable ambassador for the Jewish faith, he reconnected literally thousands of young Jewish men and women to their heritage. He also made an impressive splash in the broader Jewish community, earning the moniker "The Hollywood Rabbi." Some of Hollywood's biggest stars and producers,including cast and staff from Friends Malcolm in the Middle, Third Rock From the Sun, and Directors and Vice Presidents of Sony, Disney, and Warner Brothers, became regulars at his popular monthly class on Jewish thought.
Beyond transforming lives at UCLA, Rabbi Klatzko's activities touched-off a revolution that profoundly changed the landscape of North American Jewry. Almost overnight, dozens of young rabbis throughout the country moved their families to campuses with high Jewish populations in an effort to reach out to the unaffiliated and curious. To this day, hundreds of young rabbis seek out Rabbi Klatzko's sagacious advice in an effort to glean some of his wisdom and experience. He currently serves as a National Director of College Outreach and in that capacity oversees and promotes Jewish education and continuity throughout North America. He also serves as an Adjunct Professor at Yeshiva University and lectures at over 50 different North American colleges and universities each year.
A person of indefatigable energy, Rabbi Klatzko is also a successful author, cantor, music producer, and Mohel. A noted Judaica art collector, Rabbi Klatzko is the founder of Simcha Art Gallery in Monsey, New York. His eclectic accomplishments have even earned him the admiration of the United States Congress, where he was honored during a live session of House of Representatives as a "distinguished gentleman making a difference to his community."
Rabbi Klatzko and his family currently live in Monsey, New York, where hosting 50 or more people for Shabbos in the norm. He has been at the frontier of improving Jewish communal life in the United States for over two decades and is an invaluable addition to the Shabbat.com team.
Yehudah Koblick is the CTO and co-founder of Shabbat.com. Yehudah oversees all technical operations and is responsible for the development of its core technology and infrastructure. He was formerly a software engineer and consultant to numerous companies and worked for Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories.
Yehudah Koblick holds a bachelor's degree from Pace University. He received his rabbinic ordination from Rabbi Bezalel Rudinsky. He is the founder of Tribex Technology, a software company focusing on mobile apps.
Lavi Needleman, a Monsey, N.Y. businessman, heard of Rabbi Benzion Klatzko's visionary dream and was inspired to assist him in getting this unique website off the ground and running! Lavi is a Tree Surgeon & Landscape Designer by day, and in his free time, he continues the innovative educational methods that he started implementing in Israel 20 years ago.
After attending Yeshiva University, Lavi spent two years in Israel involved in forming an innovative pilot program at Ohr Someach Israel. This afternoon learning program paired up religious, but not motivated students with Baalei Teshuva who were weak in textual skills but brimming with enthusiasm, thus creating a win/win situation both for those being tutored and for those doing the tutoring.
After returning to the U.S., Lavi learned in Yeshivas Mir in Brooklyn and developed a close relationship with Rav Avigdor Miller who lived right next door. In 1995, he and his wife Peshie were members of the kollel in Boca Raton which was the community's successful tryout of a fulltime Kollel. Always looking for unique ways to make a difference, Lavi joined the staff at Camp Moodis where he bonded with and influenced amazing personalities from NASA and other high visibility professionals who were looking for higher meaning in life.
Three years ago Lavi became one of the original Monsey Partners in Project Inspire. In conjunction with this, Lavi's out of the box thinking and entrepreneurial spirit led him to develop his own motivational e-group as well as a website which provides people short one page original essays that he authored on major important topics, especially in the field of science and Judaism.
Seeing a great void of healthy alternatives, (other than the current baseball and basketball groups) for the religious children in Rockland County, Lavi joined with Rabbi Yehudah Koblick, a co-founder and software developer for this website, and together, they created Yeshiva Hockey Inc, one of the largest sports programs in Monsey where the boys start off each clinic with a Dvar Torah from Coach Yehudah!
To round out his interests, Lavi is a devoted husband and father of five, an accomplished ice hockey player, and the self appointed president of the PAPWESBTTIC (People Against People Who Eat Sushi Because They Think It's Cool). When not in the office designing landscapes, he can be found hundreds of feet up in the air as he rappels down the Adirondack Mountains, aiming to keep himself both focused and fit. However, the real brick & mortar of Lavi's day is the nightly class he attends and gives in Jewish Law at Yeshivas Ohr Reuven.
Lavi hopes you find this website inspirational as well as useful tool for Jews the world over, to connect!

Objective: Use this activity to immediately challenge participants to fully engage in upcoming activities.
- Model the Way by eliciting engagement and taking risk
- Challenge the Process by directly addressing active engagement, which is often atypical
- Enable Others to Act by inviting participants to take personal responsibility for engagement and risk taking
Audience: Essentially any group preparing to participate in important training, development, planning, or other group activity Time Required: 15-30 minutes Materials Needed/Setup:
- Handout with the four engagement questions and rating scale
- Pens
- Flip chart and markers
- PowerPoint® (Optional)
- The Four Engagement Questions* and associated rating scale** from Flawless Consulting: A Guide to Getting Your Expertise Used, 3rd Edition, by Peter Block
- Present the four engagement questions and ask participants to rate their level of engagement, risk and investment
- Once individual risk has been established, instruct all participants to briefly discuss their responses with the individuals seated next to them
- Conduct a full group out-brief following this small group discussion
Facilitator Tips: It is important to challenge participants to be candid with themselves and each other in developing their ratings. Also, insert a bit of tension-reducing humor, etc. to help facilitate the process.
Variations: Lengthen or shorten the discussion, depending on the depth and complexity of the tasks that will follow this exercise.
*The Four Engagement Questions
- How valuable an experience do you plan to have in this session or this effort — not what kind of experience you want, but what kind you plan to have?
- How engaged and active do you plan to be?
- How much risk are you willing to take?
- How invested are you in the quality of the experience of those around you? What is your level of concern about the well-being of the larger group?
**Associated Rating Scale The questions confront people with the nature of their participation in the meeting we are about to have. Embedded in the questions is the belief that the participants will create the experience they are about to have. Have them rate each question on a 7-point scale, where 1 is very low and 7 is very high.

It's that time of year again–time to consider signing up for a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) program. (Learn more about what a CSA is and how it works.) CSAs can be a good local food solution for people who don't have much time or inclination to shop for food. They can also be more affordable than purchasing food items separately.
This year's CSA offerings (see below) include produce, chickens, eggs, fish, flowers, and much more. It's really quite amazing! We live in a local food paradise. Continue Reading

The TV show is in process. It has not started, but we want to shop it to TV networks. The show is called "Mono~Poly". It's a trendy dating show. We'd like to see the logo with "Mono" to the left, and then two silhouettes next to the word Mono...one male, one female, both facing each other...in a dark (black) shading...but just silhouettes of the bodies. Then to the right of that, the word "Poly". Now, just above the two silhouettes, we like to have the silhouette of a face, in sort of a light (white or something) shade, with a question mark inside of the face...kind of in between the two silhouettes, but just above them. And then we'd like it in another variation...same design, but instead of a male silhouette at the top with a question mark, a female face silhouette with a question mark. I'd appreciate the best design, and fastest turnaround! Thank you!!!! I'm looking forward to this...excited!

Todd Bell did not suit up with the 1985 Bears, but those who
did still consider him a part of the team.
Those former teammates were saddened Wednesday by news that
Bell, 47, died after suffering a heart attack and crashing
his car into a house in Reynoldsburg, Ohio, according to
police and Ohio State University officials. One of the most
feared safeties of his era, Bell played for the Bears from
1981 to '84 and again in '86 before spending two seasons
with the Philadelphia Eagles and retiring.
A day before Bell's death, former teammate Shaun Gayle said
he and his teammates from '85, who have formed a corporation
to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their Super Bowl title,
didn't want to wait for a tragedy to bring them together.
Bell's phone number was on Gayle's desk, and he had been
meaning to call him.
"Todd was still part of us,'' Gayle said. "It's one of those
things that unless you have actually been on a team and
created that bond that happens on the field, it's hard to
explain. To lose a guy is really difficult; it's like losing
a family member. Todd inspired a lot of people.''
Gayle counts himself as one of the inspired. He knew Bell
since he was in high school. Gayle's older brother played at
Ohio State, and when he would visit on weekends, Woody Hayes
encouraged him to sit in on meetings. There, he met Bell in
the defensive backs room. When Gayle was a freshman with the
Buckeyes, Bell was a senior.
"That was my introduction into seeing how a strong safety
plays the game,'' said Gayle, who stood up in Bell's wedding
alongside Walter Payton and Mike Singletary. "I had no idea.
I had never seen a strong safety hit linemen or tackle
people that way. It was something to see.''
One of the most memorable hits in Bears history occurred in
a 1984 playoff game with the Washington Redskins when Bell
obliterated running back Joe Washington, forcing a fumble.
The Bears' defense topped the charts that season, and
coordinator Buddy Ryan called Bell, who went to the Pro
Bowl, the key.
A contract dispute prevented Bell from playing in '85. He
wanted $500,000 and the Bears offered $400,000, so he sat
out the entire season. Bell requested a trade just before
the deadline, but it was not granted. Meanwhile, Dave
Duerson replaced Bell and also went to the Pro Bowl.
When Bell returned in '86, he wasn't the same. He was nagged
by a hamstring injury and fell out of favor with the
coaching staff. He finished up with the Eagles, where Ryan
was coaching, eventually moving to weak-side linebacker.
"I can't really look back and have regrets,'' Bell said
after returning to the Bears. "I'm just sorry I wasn't part
of that Super Bowl XX.''
Gayle believes Bell when he looks back on what happened:
"That's not how Todd operates. He's not going to look back.
He's a man of principle, and when he makes a decision, he
goes with it.''
After retiring, Bell returned to Ohio State, where he worked
in the Office of Minority Affairs.
"It's absolutely stunning,'' former teammate Leslie Frazier
said. "I'm still shaken by the news. His sense of humor will
probably be the lasting memory I have. He was a ferocious
player and an intimidating tackler, but off the field we had
so many laughs and good times.''
Bears defensive coordinator Ron Rivera was at Halas Hall
when he saw the news scroll across the TV.
"I was shocked,'' said Rivera, who last visited with Bell
last year while scouting at Ohio State. "Todd was a man of
principle and character. This is unbelievable.''

We just wanted to share the good news that we recently received from the Changents team regarding our Proctor & Gamble GIVE HEALTH Blogivation widget for clean water. Since November, nearly 350 bloggers from around the world, along with their readers, have teamed up with P&G and Changents to donate clean water to those in need. This campaign has successfully donated 100,000 days of clean water to people in developing countries who don't have access to it. Thanks to everyone who visited our blog and clicked on the widget at the top, we are now proud to say that 64 of those days were the contribution of our readers. Although 64 seems like a small number in the grand scheme of things, every little bit helps!
The widget at the top of our blog has now been updated to reflect the successes of all those involved. But the campaign is not quite finished. The goal was 100,000 days of clean water donated by the end of 2010, and the New Year is right around the corner. P&G GIVE is now on Facebook and is asking all those who participated to "like" their page. For each "like" and "share", P&G will donate an additional day of clean water from now through January 31, 2011!
Many of our readers are also customers, who have purchased a water filter from us before. In the spirit of Christmas, you can now share the gift of clean water with those who don't have the same luxury, and it's as simple as hitting the "like" button on a Facebook page. Please help us spread the joy this holiday season with just two clicks. One to donate, and the other to share this post (and the widget at the top) with all of your friends so that they can join in the success as well.

Not Emma
Also at the Burberry party – an increasingly slender Victoria Beckham who starved extra hard to get ready for London Fashion Week and Mary-Kate Olsen and the mystery of her neck. She doesn't seem to be too keen on showing it lately. Necks don't go with prunes?
You will note, while MK enjoys the pale side of life, Posh has dialed up the orange for the occasion, exactly the sort of thing Anna Wintour despises.
Anna is in town too for London Fashion Week. She was spotted front row at Sienna Miller's Twenty8Twelve working a serious bitchface at Pixie Geldof and Alexa Chung. Needless to say, Anna's control over the seating arrangements in London is not what it is in New York. In New York, and in Paris for that matter, this likely would not have happened. London doesn't give a sh-t. Heh. But Posh would have given over a concrete tit to have had Alexa's seat.
