Plot:
If you are with a wild card in a game, you are blessed with a 100% winning rate by this almighty card. But life is never an easy game to play. It is life-and-death to the two desperate detectives played by Yang Dong-geun (”Bet on My Disco”)and Jung Jin-young (”Hi Dharma”)to obtain such a winning [...]
Il presidente del Comitato olimpico nazionale italiano (Coni) Gianni Petrucci dà la sua benedizione alla proposta di riforma dei campionati della Lega basket serie A, che prevede l’introduzione del concetto di wild card. «Rispetto alle proposte del passato, è importante che ci sia il riconoscimento del diritto sportivo: non abbiamo la maturità per un sistema senza retrocessioni come nella Nba», ha detto Petrucci facendo visita alla Monte Paschi Siena all’indomani della sconfitta nella semifinale d’Eurolega di venerdì contro il Maccabi Tel Aviv, oggi finalista con il Cska Mosca. «Ho cambiato parere sulla riforma perché ci sono momenti storici in cui il basket, da sempre in sala d’attesa per spiccare il volo, ha bisogno di rivitalizzarsi. Per riuscirci deve ritornare nelle gr

This fall, Virgin Mobile USA's will launch the new Wild Card by Kyocera Wireless. The handset is for music lovers looking for the convenience of Bluetooth wireless technology in a sophisticated handset with the ease of texting on a full QWERTY keyboard should look to be dealt. The first Virgin Mobile handset with streaming music capability, Wild Card gives customers the ability to listen to their favorite music right through the phone, and "ups the ante" on the full texting keyboard capabilities of last year's Switch_Back phone. Weighing in at just over 4 ounces, the sleek and stylish Wild Card "aces" great functionality within a compact and trendsetting clamshell casing. Among its most notable features are two vibrant color displays. The first on the front face of the phone is for voice calls. But by turning the phone sideways and giving its face a quick flip, customers have access to the Wild Card's wide screen -- along with a sizeable QWERTY ke
Talk about inspired! I saw this picture of Molly and just had to find this look! Molly looks so regally pulled together in this classic outfit. Get your hands on her look for less with my affordable recommendations.
The Phillies are in; the Mets are out. And as I type this, San Diego is losing and Colorado is winning. If that holds up, they'll be tied for the NL wild card.You, however, predicted that it would be San Diego or the Dodgers. Puh-leez. The Dodgers were pretty much out of it like two weeks ago.The Rockies get no respect.Anyway, the new poll is up. Vote here.
So far, San Diego is winning the National League wild card race AND the poll.But there's a whole week left, and the Phillies are only half a game back. And San Diego could still win the West. So, anything's possible. Well, except St. Louis winning the Wild Card -- therefore, that is no longer an option.Keep voting here, and we'll post the results of our opinion poll next week. And we'll see how it compares with reality.

**Click Picture to Enlarge**Eva looks fantastic as she graces the red carpet at the BET Awards in LA. Her Laundry by Design dress reminds me of the Fiesta week celebration held ever year in San Antonio. I love how she allowed her dress to take center stage and went light on the accessories. The bangles she chose are stackable and will complement any look. Her studs are stellar and add a touch of understated elegance.
I had to take a break from jewelry blogging, to address this outfit real quick. Fergie, my love, what the hell where you thinkin'? I mean seriously! As a fashion stylist, I consider it my civic duty to save you from yourself. You are hear by ordered to step away from your closet. We all see that you are totally incapable of making fashionable decisions. What you should have done was ditch the super short shorts, those Spice Girl boots, and that dreadful hat. If you would have paired the vest with a crisp white blouse, dark slacks/denim, and some slammin' flats then you could have saved yourself a lifetime of embarrassment. I'll allow you to keep those sunglasses but that purse has go to GO! You know what....NO...the sunglasses have to go too! Baby girl please call ME so that we can do a makeover. To redeem yourself, here's what I recommend... vest, blouse, pants, shoes, bangles, necklaceNow back to the regular jewelry blogging already in progress...

Earrings, $84 @ AbaziasI never knew that I could afford real diamonds on my salary. I honestly thought that I'd have to marry a rich husband, divorce him and take half of estate to get my hands on some ice.

Whether you want the ultimate in bling or just a touch of understated elegance, Abazias has a diamond for every taste and budget.Ads by ME in partnership with Abazias
My "Wild Card Wednesday" offering is a very, very edited version of a photo of a family I just adore. They live in one of the many previous cities/states we used to live in.
You all know my love and respect of 'large' families. With just three kids, I don't consider our family large at all. We are just a weenie sized family. Over the years I've become friends with many 'large' families..

Wild Card Wednesday... the rules are made up and the points don't matter!
TKW has nothing better to do on Wednesdays than post a photo of 'something' and call it 'good'. Since there is no theme, you just find a photo to post and if it happens to start with the letter "W" or have something to do with a "W" then you get extra non-existent points. I went through my "Junk" photo file and saw this
