She go to work, she go to school
Her body smooth, no tattoos
Type of girl that make your mother feel comfortable

A confidant, a mediator

Probably the only product of a pure success

Headed to the top like she on the building

Womens Nike Swoosh High Heels White Black Sale Online
Space Jams refer to a specific vintage sneaker made by the michael kors bags
outlet Nike athletic apparel company. Space Jams are a specific style of shoe, part of the Air Jordan's line. Wearers and Nike enthusiasts call them "Space
Jams" because Michael Jordan wore this specific style of sneaker in the 1996 movie. The shoes are black and white with small embroidered Michael Jordan figures
detailed on it. Because this sneaker is so sought after, counterfeiters often copy it. You can avoid getting an counterfeit pair by knowing the signs to look for when
it comes to spotting fake Space Jams
Instructions
1
Turn the shoes around to the back. Look at the tiffany jewelry outlet
high top portion, just above the heel. You will see a white 2 and 3 shape in geometric font on top of each other. There should be a small 1/4 inch gap between these
numbers. Most fakes do not have this standard gap.
2
Turn the shoe to the side and look at the blue embroidered Michael Jordan figure on the side. Look at the hand of the figure not holding the basketball.
Original 1995 to 1996 shoes made his fingers indistinguishable. The 2000-2001 shoes made four of his fingers detailed in a slight web shape. Most fake shoes make his
fingers too long or make his hand look too angular and unnatural.
3
Look at the tag on the tongue of the shoe. The tag should say "JUMPMAN/JORDAN" or "JUMPMAN/JAM".
4
Turn the shoes over and look at the carbon michael
kors bag canada fiber sole. The carbon fiber sole should have horizontal ridges in light gold with two large blue spots on them. One blue spot should be a
horse-shoe shape by the heel, and the other blue spot should be by the toe and look like two connected hills. The blue spots should have a ridged texture, with smaller
ridges than the majority of the sole. Most fakes do not have these details.
5
Lift the tongue of the shoe and look at the inner sole of the shoe. It should be black with a blue Air Jordan figure by the heel. Most fakes do not have this
detail.
michael kors online Many agree that Michael Jordan is the best basketball player of
all time. Considering this, hoping to play basketball like Jordan is a lofty, if not impossible goal. It is however, not an uncommon goal. Gatorade began their "Be
Like Mike" campaign in 1991, playing off of this primary desire of basketball fans everywhere. Reaching his stratospheric level of talent is next to unattainable.
Playing the same style of basketball however, or with similar tendencies as Jordan did throughout his 15-year career, can be possible by adhering to several rules.
Instructions
Being like Michael Jordan
1
Dress like Jordan. jordan heels Looking the part helps you feel his
confidence and swagger. Wear Nike brand basketball shorts and a T-shirt, coupled with a pair of Air Jordan basketball shoes. Jordan has been wearing Nike since he
signed his first endorsement deal with the company in 1985.
2
Move like Jordan. His iconic mannerisms have permeated the game of basketball. To further "be like Mike," stick out your tongue and chew gum while playing,
wear your shorts loose and to the knee, and lick your fingers in intense moments.
Practice vertical leap exercises. Jordan wasn't known as "Air" Jordan for nothing. According to TopEndSports.com, Jordan's vertical leap was once measured at
48 inches.
Start strengthening your muscles by doing 15 deep knee bends. Keep your back straight and bend your knees as far as you can, then slowly rise back up.
Repeat the knee bends, but add jumps at the end. When you get to the bottom of your knee bend, explode upwards into the air. As soon as you land, go back down
into your knee bend. Repeat 15 times.
Finish your leaping exercises with toe raises. Standing straight, rise up onto your toes and go slowly back down. Do not go too fast, or too slow. Repeat this
30 times. To increase the intensity of this exercise, hold a 5- or 10-pound weight in each hand.
4
Play solid defense. Although Jordan is known for his scoring ability, michael kors outlet online having scored more than 32,000 career points, his under-publicized defense was also stellar.
Regarding defense, Jordan has recommended putting your feet shoulder-width apart, and standing on the balls of your feet, rather than your heels, for better reaction
time. "In terms of your hands," Jordan has said, "Your right hand is going to be mirroring the basketball ... so you can deflect the basketball and not give him a
direct passing lane to the other offensive player. Your left hand is going to be sitting here [motioning low and scooping up]...trying to flick the basketball."
5
Master the mid-range jump shot. Jordan's shot from inside 19 feet, as well as his shooting form, was one of the best of all time.
Put your left foot slightly in front of your right. jordan high heels If you are right-handed, your right hand should be just barely right of center of the ball, with the ball resting in the "Y" formed
by your thumb and index finger. Use your left hand to for balance and to guide the ball. Tuck your elbows close and in front of your body. Cock your right hand so your
wrist wrinkles. Straighten your right arm and snap your wrist to shoot.
Repeat this as many times as possible to perfect your form and accuracy.
Michael Kors has been named the most popular US label online.
The American designer beat runner-ups Marc Jacobs and Ralph jordan heels Lauren to
the title of most sought after fashion brand on the net, taking 19.6 per cent of 31 million
global internet searches according to a new survey by Digital Luxury Group.

Spade, Diane von Furstenberg,jordan heels for women Betsey Johnson and Tom Ford,

nike air jordan heels outlet for women
In the law-and-order state of Oklahoma, where more women are incarcerated per capita than any other state in the country, a graduation ceremony on Monday celebrated an
alternative to locking up nonviolent female criminals.
Four women who completed an intense pandora charms beads online rehabilitation
program were handed dismissal papers from the Oklahoma County district attorney that dropped the criminal charges that normally would have sent them to the
penitentiary.
The hope is that after a year or more of therapy, the four women will turn around their lives and, in turn, avert their children from a path to incarceration.
Some, including Oklahoma's state prison director, mk outlet
bags Justin Jones, believe breaking the cycle of incarceration by focusing on rehabilitating young mothers is a sensible alternative to prison overcrowding and
building more penitentiaries.
"If you really want to stop the growth of mk outlets
canada imprisonment in the nation and in particular, Oklahoma, you've got to look at the next generation," Jones said.
About 70 percent of the next generation of inmates are going to be the children of men and women now in prison, he said.
"Programs like this are really critical in stopping that cycle of incarceration," Jones said.
But it's a tough sell in Oklahoma,michael kors outlets canada a politically
conservative state that executes more condemned prisoners per capita than any other state, including its neighbor to the south, Texas, according to the Death Penalty
Information Center.
Oklahoma's prison system has been at michael kors
outlets canada 100 percent capacity for decades, Jones said, and 1,900 men and women who have been sentenced to the state penal system are being held in county
lockups until there is room for them.
The numbers are projected to keep growing.
The female incarceration rate in Oklahoma stands michael kors online at 121 per
100,000 population, compared with a national average of 65, according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics.
Oklahoma's high female incarceration rate is related to strictair jordan high heels mandatory minimum sentences for repeat offenders, poverty and the state's historically weak response to child abuse and drug
addiction, according to Amy Santee, a senior program officer for the George Kaiser Family Foundation in Tulsa.
"Their trauma started very early in life," she said, adding that "it's very difficult to access substance abuse treatment unless you have money."
The foundation has provided key funding for an jordan high heels online alternative prison program called Women in Recovery that began in 2009 and is aimed at young mothers in Tulsa County. The
Oklahoma County program, called ReMerge, is patterned on the Tulsa experiment. ReMerge is funded by non-profits and by state and local government agencies.
The programs in the two counties are expensive and intense.
They include group and individual therapy, housing, job training and transportation. The women take regular drug tests and are monitored using global positioning
devices on their ankles, at least for some time.
Many women in the programs have been sexually or mk outlet online physically abused
as children, are victims of domestic violence and are addicted to drugs or alcohol, program officials said.
In many cases, the women have lost custody of their children, are estranged from their families and find themselves without a support system, said Terri Woodland,
program director of ReMerge.
"Oklahoma is behind," Woodland said. "It seems overwhelming. discount chanel bags
outlet If I could wave a magic wand, I'd give them all a grandmother, and an aunt."
The four women recognized on Monday expressed gratitude for the help and hope for the future.
"I was completely broken," said Dashelle Black, mk bag outlet 39. "Today, I have a
driver's license that I didn't have for 12 and a half years. That's amazing to me. I have my own place and pay my own bills. I never thought I would make it back."

Greens launch Green Paper on work- life balance
The Green Party today launched a discussion paper to promote better work-life balance for Aotearoa/New Zealand.
“New Zealander’s work some of the longest hours in the world and it’s something we need to address if we are serious about promoting NZ as a place to have a great
life style, said Holly Walker, Green Party Work-Life balance spokesperson.
“We also have a real issue with brain jordan high
heels online drain in this country – we can’t compete on wages with bigger economies but we could. For this to be real we need address a work culture of long
hours.”
OECD research shows that Kiwis work on average 10 hours a week more than the average for OECD countries.
The Green Party discussion paper covers three main areas:
· Promotion campaign and resources for work-life balance
mk bags outlet
· Development of at least 8 additional statutory holidays to ensure coverage throughout the year.
· Provision for space in work places for naps, mediatation, yoga and other stress relief techniques.
“Firstly, the message needs to get out there to the public, this could involve a website and resources being available in all work places.

Penalties cost Capitals against Rangers
The Capitals might not have allowed any power play goals in the first
period against the New York Rangers on Sunday night but the three
penalties they took in the final 14 minutes 10 seconds of the frame cost
them in ways that aren’t easily quantified by the scoreboard according
to Coach Adam Oates.
“It makes it so difficult because the team has no rhythm, you’ve got some guys that don’t kill penalties, don’t get to play,” Oates said. “You’re using guys in other situations, you want to save that energy if possible. And you give them life. We had a 1-0 lead and all of a sudden, you give them life. You get their good players on the ice, they get touches with the puck, you’ve gotta stay out of the box.”
Washington’s first infraction in its eventual 2-1 loss at the Rangers was for too-many men on the ice, the result of a sloppy line change just under six minutes in. Then 47 seconds after the Capitals killed that penalty, Jason Chimera went to the box for boarding Rangers defenseman Dan Girardi. Troy Brouwer was whistled for boarding defenseman Anton Stralman with just 1:40 remaining in the first.
At the end of the first period Nicklas Backstrom had played 3:01 of his total 6:52 of ice time short-handed, Brouwer skated 2:15 on the penalty kill of his 5:52.
“You use a lot of minutes, a lot of guys using a lot of energy
killing penalties, Nick and Troy, guys that we need at the other end,
especially. But once again, we obviously did some good things. We didn’t
give them a lot of chances. They had a lot of shots, but a lot of
perimeter, not really a lot of Grade A chances. We did some good things,
but we still made a lot of mistakes.”
While the penalties certainly threw the Capitals’ minutes off kilter and gave the Rangers unnecessary encouragement, it was an oddly officiated game. Officials missed a blatant trip by Backstrom on Rangers captain Ryan Callahan around the midway point of the first, but then called tripping when Karl Alzner’s stick got caught in the feet of Brad Richards 4:18 into the third period.
Oates also questioned the boarding call on Brouwer, stating that a play like his hit on Stralman “happens so many times” over the course of game.
Alzner was in the box for that trip when Derek Stepan scored the go-ahead goal. It only took the Rangers seven seconds into that power play, their fourth of the game, to make it 2-1. As much as it was a tough call, Alzner realized why the referee called it.
“I understand why he called it and the only thing is you hope he gives you the benefit of the doubt for it being a hockey play, checking a guy and him trying to jump over the stick,” Alzner said. The referee “didn’t and I have to deal with that. It’s just crappy that that’s pretty much the reason why we lost the game.”
Both Oates and a few players said that Sunday’s contest seemed to be called in a tighter fashion than even other games early in this abbreviated season. They reiterate the old adage that calls will eventually even out, but that’s not easy to remember in the heat of the moment when all the Capitals see is frequent trips to the box.
“Maybe tonight, we were on the short end of the stick, but there’s plenty of nights where we’re not,” Oates said. “So bottom line is you’ve gotta be in control and you can’t take penalties.”
“It makes it so difficult because the team has no rhythm, you’ve got some guys that don’t kill penalties, don’t get to play,” Oates said. “You’re using guys in other situations, you want to save that energy if possible.

Diabolical No. 10 proves to be real winner at Riviera Country Club
The man who won the Northern Trust Open
in a playoff Sunday called it "one of the great par fours we play." The
man who lost in the playoff called it "funky" and added, "They might as
well put a windmill out there."
So, although the record books will show that Long Beach's John Merrick won the golf event in a playoff with Charlie Beljan, the real winner appeared to be, as usual, No. 10 at Riviera Country Club.
That's where the tournament ended, same as last year. Second playoff hole, same as last year.
It is a par four that plays a few yards over the 300 mark, has docile-looking traps in front and around it and is a wide-open drive from an elevated tee, with the historic and picturesque Riviera clubhouse overlooking it from above. Those playing it for the first time see a breather from the length, traps and lightning greens of the other holes. Their initial reaction is always the same. Ah, something easier.
Sailors viewing the sirens of Greek mythology thought the same thing.
Riviera's No. 10 is the burr in the saddle of PGA Tour players. It is the stone in their shoe, the annoying tag on the new shirt that itches and scratches the back of their neck. It is golf's version of fingernails on a blackboard.
It lay in wait for Merrick and Beljan as the sunny afternoon drew to an end. It had destroyed half of the field along the way and left the other half thanking the powers above that this was the last day of the tournament and they had escaped with minor injuries.
By the time the last group of the day, the leading threesome of Bill Haas, Webb Simpson and Charl Schwartzel, was teeing it up on the hill in the distance, it had done most of its usual selective torture. Haas had taken a three-shot lead into the day. Simpson and Schwartzel were in second at nine under par, as was Merrick, playing in the group ahead.
Merrick had made a birdie and headed off to the No. 11 tee. His birdie was one of 12 for the day there. There were also 16 bogeys and two double bogeys. One of the doubles was by Josh Teater, who played the rest of the course beautifully, shot 69 and shared sixth place. One of the bogeys was by Beljan.
Chances were excellent that the winner of this prestigious golf tournament would come from that final threesome. Schwartzel and Simpson were major winners, Schwartzel the 2011 Masters and Simpson the 2012 U.S. Open. They were battled-tested veterans.
Haas has yet to win a major but has made a significant mark on the tour, especially with a pressure-packed, career-defining shot out of water to win the 2011 FedEx Cup and its accompanying $10-million prize.
Even more significant, he had won here last year, sinking a 50-foot putt on the second playoff hole. Yes, No. 10. Also, his third-round 64 this year had been achieved with the help of a chip-in eagle on, you guessed it, No. 10.
Sunday, as No. 10 beckoned evilly, Simpson decided to lay up, Schwartzel decided to hit driver and cut his shot left to right to the front of the green. Haas wanted to do something similar but hit his driver too flush and watched helplessly from the tee, palms down in a gesture that asked the shot to get down and avoid a collection area to the left of the green from where Houdini himself could not get the next shot to stay on the green.
No. 10, with a green so narrow and slanting that it would be tough to stop a bowling ball on it, had smiled and collected Haas.
Schwartzel got up and down in two for a birdie and remained in contention to the end. Simpson made par and did nothing special the rest of the way, shooting one-over 37 on the back.
Haas chipped into the back trap, took a bogey and was in the midst of a contention-killing, six-out-of-seven-hole run of fives.
As the trio walked off the green, the scorekeeper's placard showed three red numbers — 10, 10, 10 — each now that equal margin under par. Devilishly, No. 10 had given to Schwartzel, yawned at Simpson and taken away from Haas. The only surprise was that the placard didn't read 6, 6, 6.
So it came to pass that Merrick and Beljan, having tied in regulation and parred the first playoff hole, No. 18, stood on the 10th tee and stared toward golfing hell.
"From the tee box," Merrick said later, "you're sitting there, and it looks like — it just looks easy."
Beljan said later, "I don't really have anything good to say about the 10th hole."
Merrick laid up with an iron. Beljan hit a laser drive well left of the green to a near-impossible position to get the ball anywhere for a decent putt. He was a first-timer here and was asked later if he thought lack of local knowledge hurt him.
"I think you could play that hole 10,000 times," he said, "and still not know how to play No. 10."
Merrick's lob wedge left him close enough for a fairly comfortable two-putt par. Beljan scrambled nicely and had 4 feet 7 inches left for a par that would send the playoff to No. 14.
But No. 10 decided it was time for the tournament to end. Beljan's putt touched the side of the cup and squirted away.
Merrick, continuing his theme of praise and awe, said later, "From the tee, it looks like the most benign hole."
Some would see that as merely an assessment. Those with a clearer understanding of No. 10 at Riviera know better. Merrick was sucking up for next year.
So, although the record books will show that Long Beach's John Merrick won the golf event in a playoff with Charlie Beljan, the real winner appeared to be, as usual, No. 10 at Riviera Country Club.
That's where the tournament ended, same as last year. Second playoff hole, same as last year.
It is a par four that plays a few yards over the 300 mark, has docile-looking traps in front and around it and is a wide-open drive from an elevated tee, with the historic and picturesque Riviera clubhouse overlooking it from above. Those playing it for the first time see a breather from the length, traps and lightning greens of the other holes. Their initial reaction is always the same. Ah, something easier.
Sailors viewing the sirens of Greek mythology thought the same thing.
Riviera's No. 10 is the burr in the saddle of PGA Tour players. It is the stone in their shoe, the annoying tag on the new shirt that itches and scratches the back of their neck. It is golf's version of fingernails on a blackboard.
It lay in wait for Merrick and Beljan as the sunny afternoon drew to an end. It had destroyed half of the field along the way and left the other half thanking the powers above that this was the last day of the tournament and they had escaped with minor injuries.
By the time the last group of the day, the leading threesome of Bill Haas, Webb Simpson and Charl Schwartzel, was teeing it up on the hill in the distance, it had done most of its usual selective torture. Haas had taken a three-shot lead into the day. Simpson and Schwartzel were in second at nine under par, as was Merrick, playing in the group ahead.
Merrick had made a birdie and headed off to the No. 11 tee. His birdie was one of 12 for the day there. There were also 16 bogeys and two double bogeys. One of the doubles was by Josh Teater, who played the rest of the course beautifully, shot 69 and shared sixth place. One of the bogeys was by Beljan.
Chances were excellent that the winner of this prestigious golf tournament would come from that final threesome. Schwartzel and Simpson were major winners, Schwartzel the 2011 Masters and Simpson the 2012 U.S. Open. They were battled-tested veterans.
Haas has yet to win a major but has made a significant mark on the tour, especially with a pressure-packed, career-defining shot out of water to win the 2011 FedEx Cup and its accompanying $10-million prize.
Even more significant, he had won here last year, sinking a 50-foot putt on the second playoff hole. Yes, No. 10. Also, his third-round 64 this year had been achieved with the help of a chip-in eagle on, you guessed it, No. 10.
Sunday, as No. 10 beckoned evilly, Simpson decided to lay up, Schwartzel decided to hit driver and cut his shot left to right to the front of the green. Haas wanted to do something similar but hit his driver too flush and watched helplessly from the tee, palms down in a gesture that asked the shot to get down and avoid a collection area to the left of the green from where Houdini himself could not get the next shot to stay on the green.
No. 10, with a green so narrow and slanting that it would be tough to stop a bowling ball on it, had smiled and collected Haas.
Schwartzel got up and down in two for a birdie and remained in contention to the end. Simpson made par and did nothing special the rest of the way, shooting one-over 37 on the back.
Haas chipped into the back trap, took a bogey and was in the midst of a contention-killing, six-out-of-seven-hole run of fives.
As the trio walked off the green, the scorekeeper's placard showed three red numbers — 10, 10, 10 — each now that equal margin under par. Devilishly, No. 10 had given to Schwartzel, yawned at Simpson and taken away from Haas. The only surprise was that the placard didn't read 6, 6, 6.
So it came to pass that Merrick and Beljan, having tied in regulation and parred the first playoff hole, No. 18, stood on the 10th tee and stared toward golfing hell.
"From the tee box," Merrick said later, "you're sitting there, and it looks like — it just looks easy."
Beljan said later, "I don't really have anything good to say about the 10th hole."
Merrick laid up with an iron. Beljan hit a laser drive well left of the green to a near-impossible position to get the ball anywhere for a decent putt. He was a first-timer here and was asked later if he thought lack of local knowledge hurt him.
"I think you could play that hole 10,000 times," he said, "and still not know how to play No. 10."
Merrick's lob wedge left him close enough for a fairly comfortable two-putt par. Beljan scrambled nicely and had 4 feet 7 inches left for a par that would send the playoff to No. 14.
But No. 10 decided it was time for the tournament to end. Beljan's putt touched the side of the cup and squirted away.
Merrick, continuing his theme of praise and awe, said later, "From the tee, it looks like the most benign hole."
Some would see that as merely an assessment. Those with a clearer understanding of No. 10 at Riviera know better. Merrick was sucking up for next year.

Purple Heart medal awarded in LA to WWII soldier's daughter
Hyla Merin gladly accepted a Purple Heart, a Silver Star and six other
war medals at her home Sunday. But she is no war vet. The honors were
earned by a man she's never met.
"It's such an honor to do this in his memory," Merin said in tears. "I was named after him that's how my name Hyla comes from Hyman which was his name."
It was May of 1945 when 2nd Lt. Hyman Markel was killed in a gunfight while fighting German troops in Italy during WWII. If not for pictures Merin would have no idea what he look like. The Army officer died before she was born. Her mother didn't speak about her father much. He died while she was seven months pregnant with Merin.
"We had a few pictures, not many, a few pictures in the house up," Merin said. "My mother was kind of stoic. It was hard for her always to talk about it. A lot of what I know I know from my aunts and other family members who would tell me stories."
The manager of a West Hollywood apartment building found her father's medals and other items in a box hidden in a laundry room locker. Her parents had lived in the building in the 60s.
Purple Hearts Reunited founder Zachariah Fike was contacted. The Vermont Army National Guard captain, who founded the organization, reunites lost war medals with their rightful owner.
"I try to honor the veterans," Fike said. "I go through a local congress man and get all the other awards that he would have been entitled to and I get them framed professionally for the families. In this case, he'll get a professionally framed set of medals that he was entitled to for his service in the war."
These medals prove the strong, courageous and brave father she dreams about to this day isn't just a fantasy she envisions; he was real.
"This is kind of tears of love and joy," Merin said. It was a part of me. I've always known he was a wonderful person."

Pope Electors Are Sizing Up a Field of Peers
There is no formal nominating process for choosing the man to succeed Pope Benedict XVI,
and campaigning for oneself is counterproductive. But the cardinals who
will file into the Sistine Chapel next month to elect a new leader of
the Roman Catholic Church have been quietly sizing up potential candidates for years.
They were impressed when the young soon-to-be-cardinal of Manila, Luis
Antonio Tagle, told bishops gathered for a momentous synod in Rome last
October that the church should listen more and admit its mistakes. They
took note a year ago when Archbishop Timothy M. Dolan of New York
delivered a winning address on evangelization to the College of
Cardinals, the day before the pope gave him the red hat of a cardinal.
They deemed Cardinal Marc Ouellet a gracious host on their visits to the
Vatican, where he guides the selection of bishops, but some said he
practically put the crowd to sleep during his talk at the International
Eucharistic Congress last June in Dublin.
These impressions, collected from interviews with a variety of church
officials and experts, may influence the very intuitive, often
unpredictable process the cardinals will use to decide who should lead
the world’s largest church.
The cardinals will gather on March 1, one day after Benedict steps down
and departs for Castel Gandolfo, the papal summer home in the hills
outside Rome. The cardinals will meet every morning to discuss where the
church is headed and, over lunches and dinners, take the measure of one
another’s characters, talents and experiences, based on personal
relationships and observations. But undoubtedly they will also consider
geography, doctrinal approach and style.
By the time the 117 cardinal electors enter the conclave to choose the next pope, they must be ready to vote.
According to church rules, the conclave could begin on March 15, but the
Vatican spokesman said Saturday that it may start even earlier. The
cardinals, eager to finish the process by Palm Sunday on March 24, could
reinterpret the mandatory 15-day waiting period, the spokesman, the
Rev. Federico Lombardi, said.
The waiting period was intended to allow time for cardinals to gather
after the death of a pope, but because Benedict’s resignation has
already been announced, the cardinals have advance notice and, in fact,
many have already begun discussions by phone and e-mail.
“People are reluctant to speak about themselves,” said Cardinal Francis
George of Chicago, who voted in the conclave that elected Benedict in
2005. “So you go to a friend and say, Can you tell me about cardinal
so-and-so?”
“The questions are usually about the qualities you want to see in a
pope. Is he a man of prayer, is he deeply rooted in the apostolic faith,
can he govern, is he deeply concerned about the poor?” Cardinal George
said in a telephone interview. “It matters far less where he happens to
be living or where he’s from.”
The auditions begin in earnest on Sunday when Cardinal Gianfranco Ravasi, an Italian who is president of the Pontifical Council for Culture,
is scheduled to preach the weeklong papal Lenten retreat, attended by
Benedict and many of the cardinals and bishops who work in the Vatican.
Preaching the Lenten retreat is a high honor, one bestowed on Karol
Wojtyla and Joseph Ratzinger before they became Pope John Paul II and
Pope Benedict XVI.
“It’s not only going to be seen as a sign of papal favor, but it will
give him a platform,” said John Thavis, the retired Rome bureau chief
for Catholic News Service, a church-affiliated news agency, and author
of “The Vatican Diaries.” “People will be listening very carefully.”
“The way candidates come to the fore is generally not by what they’re
doing in their local archdioceses, which is what matters most to their
own people,” he said. “It’s what they do at the center of the universal
church.”
The case of Cardinal Ravasi exemplifies the way the cardinals will sift
and weigh a candidate’s attributes against the church’s needs. Church
leaders now say their greatest challenge is to confront a rising wave of
secularism in Europe, the United States and even Latin America, and
Cardinal Ravasi has energetically engaged nonbelievers across Europe
with high-profile events in cities like Stockholm; Paris; Tirana,
Albania; and Bucharest, Romania.
At a time when many prelates say the church must learn to use social
media to evangelize, he has more than 35,000 followers on Twitter.
However, to the cardinals and bishops in the Vatican, according to
Sandro Magister, a Vatican expert at the magazine L’Espresso, “Ravasi is
considered very ambitious and much too inclined to chase the applause
of the public.”
The other Italians who are more solid candidates, Mr. Magister said, are
Cardinal Angelo Scola, the archbishop of Milan and a theologian who has
often addressed the challenges of secularism and Islam in Europe, and
Cardinal Angelo Bagnasco, the archbishop of Genoa and president of the
Italian bishops conference.
Personality may be pre-eminent, but geography has increasingly been a
factor. With the church shrinking in Europe, and the majority of
Catholics now living in Africa, Asia and Latin America, many Catholics
are calling for the cardinals to turn the reins over to a leader from
the global south. The church has never had a non-European pope in the
modern era. (The last, according to Vatican records, was Gregory III, a
Syrian, who served until 741.) Benedict has actually increased the
percentage of cardinals from Italy and reduced the percentage from the
developing world. But they do not necessarily vote in geographic blocs.
The cardinals from Italy are said to be divided into factions, according
to church experts in Rome, as are those from Latin America.
For those spoken of as front-runners, granting news media interviews in
the weeks before a conclave can backfire, church observers say.
Cardinal Peter Turkson of Ghana, already tarnished by having shown an
unforgivingly anti-Islam video at a church event last year, probably
hurt his chances recently by speaking to The Daily Telegraph of London
as if he had already been elected pope: “It is going to be a
life-changing experience, and I think that is what it has been for
Benedict and those who have gone before us.”
In the past, the cardinals with posts in the Vatican bureaucracy had an
advantage because they had spent more time with bishops visiting from
around the world. Bishops elevated to cardinal are appointed to Vatican
committees and see one another more frequently in Rome.
“The most important thing is personal contact,” said Msgr. James P.
Moroney, rector of St. John’s Seminary, in Boston, and a liturgist who
has worked in the Vatican and at the American bishops’ conference in
Washington. “Someone’s reputation is very important, but when you
establish a personal relationship, that’s when you really make up your
mind.”
Benedict has intentionally created more opportunities for the cardinals
to get to know one another before they elect the next pope, said Rocco
Palmo, a Philadelphia writer who closely follows developments in the
hierarchy on his blog, “Whispers in the Loggia.”
Benedict elevated new groups of cardinals five times during his
eight-year papacy, and on all but one of those occasions he gathered the
cardinals together for a daylong meeting before the formal elevation
rite. It was at such a meeting in February 2012 that Cardinal Dolan won
praise for his talk on evangelization, Mr. Palmo said. “The cardinals
all got the chance to size each other up and listen to one another, and
there was no seniority in terms of who could speak,” he said.
In the last conclave eight years ago, there were alliances of liberal
and conservative cardinals. But this time, the spectrum has narrowed
because 50 of the cardinals were created by John Paul II and 67 by
Benedict, both doctrinal conservatives. (Cardinals age 80 and older
cannot participate.)
“This time most of them are on the same page,” said Msgr. Anthony
Figueiredo, director of the Institute for Continuing Theological
Education at the North American College, in Rome.
“What’s going to be very key in this conclave is the person, the
personality,” Monsignor Figueiredo said. “Is he a man who can really
speak to the hearts of people in this secularized, de-Christianized
world where people, let’s face it, are leaving the church and need to be
attracted to the message?”

Tom Brady Boggles the Mind in Newest Ugg for Men Commercial
Making a football team now comes complete with a pair of Ugg slippers and bro punch from Tom Brady.
While the former is pretty sweet, the latter proves to be more bizarre than we would have thought. What in the name of a Gronk is going on here?
Follow along with me as we break down 30 seconds of video that had us scratching our heads and wondering if we had just been Keyser Soze-ed.
A football player waits in a deserted locker room and sees a note on a nearby table. It most likely reads, "See coach. Bring playbook," as we see the same note on another locker.
It's basically the same sub-plot from Major League when Willie Hayes, Jake Taylor and Rick Vaughn try to stave off getting red carded, because it means you died and went to the minors.
Only this moment is darker and features slippers.
Our hero, who wasn't good enough at football to assume he just made the team, finds out that he not only made the roster, he got a pair of Uggs.
Sweet deal.
Then comes in Tom Brady, who looks like he just fell of the stylist chair. He sidles up to the new recruit and gives him dap for making the team.
If it ended there, we would have still wanted some Uggs and moved on with life. Only Brady gives a bro punch and specifies, "For now."
What then takes place is two seconds of awkward that really should have our hero question whether he wants to play on a team dominated by such capriciousness, albeit capriciousness with style.
On the flip side, we were greeted with this frantic commercial when Ugg rolled out its swagtastic men's line. Who new a manic Tom Brady could be so marketable? Though Mos Def helps a great deal.
Then there was Brady playing invisible football and getting his image plastered all over Manhattan. All of those I get.
They make sense and and don't make my head hurt.

How to Walk in High Heels
Heels do not need to be long and thin to be considered fashionable. But no matter what the length of your heel, take extra caution to keep your balance and place the
least amount of strain on your muscles.
Instructions
1
Step with your heel down first, then let the sole follow quickly and smoothly.
2
Walk with your toes pointing straight ahead or as close to straight ahead as possible.
3
Swing your arms as you walk for balance.
4
Keep your legs straight, close and parallel.
5
Take smooth, even steps; consider shortening your stride a bit.
6
Avoid walking on ice, slush, mud, grass, sand, gravel and grated surfaces, on which you can slip or sink. When in doubt, take off your heels and carry them
across such questionable surfaces in your bare feet.

How to Keep High Heels from Slipping
There is nothing like a new pair of high heels to make a girl feel
pretty -- until those heels start to slip up and down, which can make
embarrassing sounds, create painful blisters and even trip up the
wearer, a calamity that can be painful as it is humiliating. With the
proper fit, a couple of clever products and even a do-it-yourself remedy
featuring a common beauty product, fans of high heels can banish
slipping problems.
3
Add strap cushion. For sling backs that don't stay in place,
use thin adhesive strips on the inside of the shoe's strap to add
cushion and give the strap a tighter fit. Strap cushions are purchasable
at many shoe stores.
Spray the foot with hairspray. It may sound strange, but
blast the foot with hairspray, especially on the sole. Wait five seconds
and then put on the heels. The stickiness of hairspray will hold shoes
in place.

Hot To Trot: 10 Super-Chic Riding Boots To Kick-Start Your Winter Wardrobe
Whether you're in the stables every Sunday, or don't know a stirrup from a side saddle, one thing's for sure — riding boots are the easiest way to add a touch of equestrian elegance to your wardrobe. Not to mention, they're so much more sophisticated than that other horse-riding classic, the Western boot (nothin' against my urban cowgirls out there).
Take these simple, sturdy styles out for a trot. Tall enough to keep your gams cozy on the most subzero day, and oh-so-chic with skinny jeans and a slouchy sweater, these statement steppers are just the thing to upgrade your gait this winter.

How Do I Clean a Jordan 6 Shoe?
The Air Jordan 6 is a high-end athletic shoe that is built for style as
well as performance. It was worn by basketball player Michael Jordan
during the first championship he and the Chicago Bulls won in 1991 and
has remained popular since then. It is in your interest to keep them
clean and looking fresh and new. The Jordan 6 is composed mostly of a
solid rubber sole and suede, both materials that need to be cleaned
regularly. There are some ways of maintaining your Jordan 6 shoes so
they keep their new shoe appearance for years to come.
Instructions
-
-
1
Clean the Jordan 6 soles after outdoor usage. Pour 1 Tbsp. OxiClean Versatile Stain Remover Powder (chlorine-free only to protect material) into a bowl of water, stir it up and let dissolve completely. Dampen a clean cloth with the solution and scrub all areas of the sole. Dry the shoe completely with a clean, dry cloth.
-
2
Apply a whitening toothpaste to a toothbrush and scrub the treads of the shoes. Spot-clean the treads in the sole for small pockets of dirt that the OxiClean didn't remove. Since the Jordan 6 has a clear sole, dirt will appear easily and stand out.
-
Clean the suede with a clean toothbrush and few drops of water. This should remove most of the dust, lint and mild stains. Vigorously scrub soiled or dusty areas. To take the cleaning further, buy a suede brush and a suede eraser from your local shoe store. The bristles on the suede brush are thicker and more durable and will pick up a wider range of dirt then a toothbrush. Use the eraser as you would a pencil eraser by rubbing evenly on the area that needs to be cleaned. Use moderate pressure and increase if the stain isn't removed.
-
4
Remove water stains by applying water evenly across the shoe. Stuff the shoe with newspaper that won't leech ink to keep the shoe from deforming. Spray the whole shoe with a spray bottle. Blot away the excess moisture with a dry, absorbent cloth and let the shoe sit overnight to dry completely.
-
5
Remove the laces to clean them. Wash them in a normal wash load to get most of the stains out. Another option is to put a small amount of laundry detergent in a bowl and scrub the laces while in the bowl. This can help ensure specific blots are worked out. Bleach can also be used for white laces. Allow the laces to hang overnight to dry completely.
