On Friday, Marion Jones surrendered to authorities shortly before noon in Ft. Worth, Texas to begin serving her six-month sentence. The former Olympic stand-out will also serve 400 hours of community service in each of the two years following her release while on probation.The judge sentenced her to the maximum sentence under her plea deal to set an example to other athletes who might have messed up in the same fashion. Marion has admitted that she juiced up for the 2000 Olympics in Sydney and has returned every single one of the five medals that she won there. Three of them were gold medals.Marion Jones is the first professional athlete to serve jail time in this doping scandal. She got drugs from the same place, Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative (BALCO), as Barry Bonds and Jason Giambi.

The French actress, Marion Cotillard, won Best Actress at the 2008 Academy Awards for her role as famous French singer Edith Piaf in "La Vie En Rose". Aside from her monumental win, I personally thought she also had a fashion triumph by wearing the most beautiful dress that night, an exquisite cream and gold gown designed by none other than Jean-Paul Gaultier.
Sadly after she was princess of the Academy Awards, Marion Cotillard had to open her mouth during interviews and ruin the whole image she has cultivated. Cotillard has been quoted by various news sources as believing that 9-11 was a conspiracy of the American government to tear down old buildings and that the government used the guise of terrorism to fool the American public into lending support to the war in Iraq. I believe that eve

Before I go on, Shaquille O'Neal should of retired when he earned his last championship with the Miami Heats...He's old, fat, and most importantly he can't shoot a free-throw for his life and the one thing he did, isn't there anymore...his ability to dunk at his will. To be straight to the point: Marion is getting traded to the Miami Heats for Shaq.Is Marion better off staying with the Suns? Of course!Why does Marion want to get traded even though he's with one of the top 5 best teams in the league currently? Fame...does he want more reputation playing alongside Wade? or just tired of playing for the Suns? Only Marion knows...Overall, Shawn Marion could have avoided this trade as the Pheonix Suns desperately wanted him to stay but he opened his heart and wanted out. Now Marion is going off
Heat Considering Trading O'Neal to Suns for Marion!!!!Once O'Neal heard about the report of the trade offer, Shaq played it cool:He (Coach Rilely) hasn't spoken to me. He hasn't talked about it. I've been in the league 15 years. I've seen it all, been through it all. I've just got to sit back.Sun's coach D'Antoni does not want Marion to leave the Pheonix Suns because if he leaves there will be a missing piece in the almost balanced chemistry the Pheonix Suns have this season. One thing I don't understand is that why does Marion want to be traded?!?! He has the an All-Star team! Nash, Staudemire, Barbosa, Bell, himself...They have a legitmate shot at the championship if they keep playing like the way their playing right now! If he gets traded to the Miami Heats who have the second worse rec

This is Hazel one of the hundreds of pups in Marion, Indiana needing a home. She's currently at the Grant County Animal Shelter which is overwhelmed with pups right now due to confiscation from a hoarding situation. And many are in danger of being euthanized. Can you help?From WANE-TV in Fort Wayne comes news that....The Grant County Animal Shelter, in Marion, is overwhelmed with pets this winter. They're asking for the publics help to find suitable homes. The shelter has had busy months before, but rarely like this. Animal control recently took seventy-five neglected animals from residences in the area. Thirty-one came from one house alone; some were near starvation.That's left the humane society scrambling to find owners."We are way past capacity right now," said shelter director Kim May. "In general, I think its because people don't understand how one animal coming in impacts the shelter, because we're always full."The shelter has room for about 100 dogs. Right now they're up
We all know the stories, and the facts that have come to light. Yes, Marion Jones should have her medals stripped. I'm a bit on the fence about her having to return all the prize money, though, because she did show up and participate, and all those involved in her camp were paid from her winnings....hmmm, that's a slippery slope, that one. But, my real question is, who else is being investigated with such diligence? Is it ALL the athletes, or just a chosen few? Here we are in 2007 and they're STILL after these few folks like bloodhounds. Why only them?I also sense some type of unfairness in the whole Barry Bonds situation as well. Once again, I ask, WHO ELSE is being put through this same scrutiny to such a degree? Are the powers that be just pissed because he broke Hank Aaron's home run record? That he now goes in the history books? What about all the other "dirty" players? We know they're out there, suiting up every game as usual. Is it only the golden, chosen few, o
The concept you pitched to Sarah Jessica Parker was strong enough to earn the role of team leader. Your design may have been too ambitious and your fabric choice (on such a limited budget) was probably your worst enemy. But it was a pleasure to see you work with Steven and taking responsibility on the runway was honorable indeed. The finished garment looked far more expensive than your budget and even SJP likened it to Hermès. We already know that you are a success but we believe that even more opportunity will come your way because of this experience.This post is only for positive words for Marion Lee.

Marion Lane est une artiste américaine qui vit et travaille à Venice, en Californie.
Son travail tourne autour de l'information, et la façon dont celle-ci peut être détournée pour manipuler les consommateurs. Dans sa série "Chasing the rabbit", en relation avec Alice au pays des merveilles, elle conçoit ses peintures comme des arrêts sur image abstraits de télévision, où la recherche de la meilleure expérience audiovisuelle conduit en fait à l'absorption massive de publicités et d'information formatée, au mieux inutile, au pire manipulatrice. Ses images proches de la figuration utilisent un langage très synthétique, plus proche de la consommation que de la nature.
Marion Lane utilise le temps et la gravité pour étaler les peintures acryliques qui forment ses oeuvres plutôt que des pinceaux, ce qui a pour effet de conserver le pigment très vif et d'obtenir des formes précises avec une texture souvent très lisse.

A velocista Marion Jones devolveu as cinco medalhas que ganhou na Olimpíada de Sydney/2000. A informãção foi divulgada pela agência de notícias Reuters, que entrou em contato com uma fonte próxima à atleta. Na semana passada, Jones confessou ter usado doping à época da Olimpíada. Um dia depois de seu anúncio, o Comitê Olímpico dos EUA pediu que ela devolvesse as medalhas.- Ela pede desculpas a seus adversários e espera que os livros de recordes sejam corrigidos para refletir com precisão seus feitos - disse a fonte, que pediu anonimato.O advogado Henry DePippo, que representa Jones em Nova York (EUA), confirmou por telefone que as medalhas foram devolvidas.A velocista conquistou três medalhas de ouro e duas de bronze em Sydney. Na sexta-feira passada, após anos de desmentidos, ela admitiu a um tribunal de Nova York que havia consumido o esteróide tetrahidrogestrinona (THG) antes daquele evento.No dia seguinte, Peter Ueberroth, presidente do Comitê Olímpico dos EUA,
Oh Marion, oh Marion, girl I’m mad at you. Taking them drugs, huh? The temptation was too strong, huh? Do anything to win, huh? Not you...Marion, you took steriods? Shame on you. I’ll tell you this drug taking mess is about to kill me. Mark Mcguire, Barry Bonds and now my darling Marion Jones. She took steriods, she has admitted it. This revelation is so sad. Marion Jones succumbed to that - how does it go? That “win at all cost” mentality, a mindset that assures that a good and honest athlete will go bad and do something demeaning and cheat to win. Marion is the latest top ranked athlete to admit using drugs to enhance her performance. This revelation is another blown to the image of our beloved sports world. We fans have become accustom to hearing that our sports heroes are drug users. Marion Jones is, indeed, a special and very talented athlete, but how much of her talent came from her use of steriods? This is the question we will always want to know and unfortunately, shal
Poor Marion.She will plead guilty to lying to federal investigators about taking steroids - specifically "the clear " and "the cream."Right is right and wrong is wrong but I'm beginning to think steroid use is only wrong to fat out of shape Americans because it seems rampant -- rampant in the the world of sports. In sports it seems to be the rule not the exception. If you want to compete you do what the romans do and turn a blind eye. Sad.There is just so much money in the world of sports. Actresses carve up their bodies to stay competitive, athletes dope up to stay competitive, politicians lie like rugs to stay competitive. I think it's time we see sports for what it is - a multi billion dollar industry - not some scene where the boys run out to...."Win one for the Gipper." The Gipper was probably laid up from anabolic steroid use anyway.
After all the sneaking from the questions everyone made about her possible use of steroids, athletic champion and gold-medal winner Marion Jones finally admitted being on those drugs during her successful performance in 2000 Sidney Olympics.
The Washington Post published the story where apparently Jones wrote a letter to his closest friends and family, admitting the charges on her and announcing she would be pleading guilty to lying to federal agents about it. She was taking the steroids known as “the clear”, produced by BALCO (the ones she once sued for defamation over the declarations that made her guilty of doping), from 1999 to 2001. Yes, this means she was high as a kite on steroids during her breath-taking Sidney Olympics campaign, where she got 5 medals, 3 of them gold.

"I want to apologize to you all for all of this. I am sorry for putting you all through this after you have been there for me through everything. I want to apologize to you, in advance, for the questions that you will be asked about me and about your relationships with me. And lastly, I am sorry for disappointing you all, in so many ways. My intent was never to hurt any of you."A confession and a guilty pleaThese words, penned in a letter from Marion Jones to close family and friends, represent a confession that many have been waiting for since the BALCO scandal hit the news years ago. Marion Jones, winner of three Gold and two Bronze medals at the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, the figurehead of those Games, the most recognizable face in world athletics for many years, has finally confessed to the use of the now infamous steroid, THG, also known as "the clear". This anabolic steroid drug, developed specifically to avoid detection by Victor Conte and Patrick Arnold, was one of the key '
I was dissapointed when I logged on to Yahoo and saw a photo of Marion jones next to a headline that read Report: Jones Admits Doping. Considering her current husband, baby’s father and trainer have all been associated with steroids at some point or another, I cannot say that I am too suprised. Still, it kind of sucks to have it confirmed, knowing that her awesome performance in the 2000 Olympics can be credited to performance enhancers.
I never looked at her as a role model, so the moral aspect of the story wasn’t the part that dissapointed me. I was dissapointed because I used to have a slight crush on Marion Jones. Ok, maybe more than a slight crush…I wanted to blow her Olympic Gold Medal winning back out back in those days. Don’t look at photos of her running full-speed in the 100 meter dash. No one looks cute in the middle of a race, sprinting at an Olympic level. When she was off the track, it’s a little easier to see why I wanted to h
