Active 7 TOP MONTHLY LIKES Flirtationship: More than a friendship and less than a relationship. I wonder what happens when a doctor’s wife eats an apple a day. GOOGLE must be a woman because it knows everything. Boys, if you don’t look like Calvin Klein models, don’t expect us to look like Victoria Secret Angels. A husband is someone who, after taking the trash out, gives the impression he just cleaned the whole house. When a woman says “WHAT?” It’s not because she didn’t hear you. She’s giving you a chance to change what you said. 8 Active The human brain is amazing. It functions 24 hours a day from the time we are born, and only stops when we take an exam or are in love. If school has taught us anything, it’s how to text without looking. I hate people who steal my ideas, before I think of them. I used to like my neighbors, until they put a password on their Wi-Fi. Newton’s law of love: Love can neither be created nor destroyed. It can only be transferred from one girlfriend to another with some loss of money. Nothing moves faster than a girl untagging herself from an ugly picture. Have a good facebook status you want to submit?

Active 13 Carrie Superstar Carrie Underwood will continue her critically acclaimed 2013 “Blown Away Tour.” Following an international run in June, this will bring the tour’s combined total to over 100 shows. Hunter Hayes will continue as special guest. “The Blown Away Tour” is presented and hydrated by vitaminwater® and promoted by AEG Live. The donation of $1 from each ticket sold on the North American leg of the tour will continue to support Red Cross disaster relief. Every year, the American Red Cross prepares for and responds to nearly 70,000 disasters across the United States. This donation will help the Red Cross provide shelter, food, and emotional support for those in need after a disaster. Proceeds from her Canadian concerts will be donated to the Canadian Red Cross. Carrie’s performance and the spectacular show production are being heralded by media. “Carrie’s always been great, but now she’s in a league of her own,” shared WTHT on-air personality Cory Garrison. “It was more than a show, it was an experience.” The Hartford Courant reviewer stated, “Underwood’s stage show was one of the most spectacular in recent memory.” AOL’s theboot. com expressed, “Leaving fans and music industry pals thoroughly awed by the perfect storm of visuals, special effects and, of course, Carrie’s amazing vocals,” while cmt. com said, “Start to finish, it will be tough for any country 14 Active Underwood artist to top what Underwood is delivering on this tour.” When Carrie performed at the Staples Center in Los Angeles earlier this month the LA Times reported, “A spectacular production… full of dazzling costume changes, creative staging and megawatts of musical wattage.” Carrie’s two previous headline tours, 2008’s “Carnival Ride Tour” and 2010’s “Play On Tour,” performed for a combined total of nearly 250 shows with 2.2 million fans in attendance, and she wrapped both years as the top-ranked female country touring artist. Carrie’s Blown Away album made history this spring by debuting at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums Chart, making Carrie only the second country artist in the 47-year history of the chart to have each of their first four albums debut at No. 1. Blown Away also debuted at No. 1 on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart, making Carrie only the second country artist in history to have three consecutive albums debut at No. 1. Blown Away became country’s best-selling digital album debut since 2010 and has now sold a million copies. The album’s first two singles, “Good Girl” and “Blown Away,” both reached No. 1 status earning her a total of three weeks atop the country airplay charts in 2012, more than any other female country artist this year.

I know we generally never go out of the golf season, but there’s not a better time to play here than spring through early summer. The days are longer, the weather is milder and the golf courses are all nearly perfect. For three decades, The Players (TPC, Players Championship for those of you who have been around for a while) ramped up our thirst to play, scheduled in March. First at the beginning, then in the middle and finally at the end before making it’s 52 Active about The Players move to May to occupy the spot open between the Masters and the US Open. The move to May for The Players has mixed reviews so far. In the current spot on the calendar, it’s a natural “big tournament” for professional golf, filling the month-long void between the majors in April (The Masters) and June (The U.S. Open). But if The Players is to ever be considered a major it’ll take time, the respect of the players themselves, and a fan base that just can’t get enough. Right now, buying a ticket to The Players early in the week is not a problem. If you want to see the best players in the world “up close and personal,” buy a Tuesday or Wednesday practice round ticket and head to TPC Sawgrass. It might be the easiest and best ticket in sports. The Players is not only the best-run golf tournament in the world; it might be the best-run sporting event around. Fan friendly, easy access, reasonably priced, plenty of food and drink and the best in the world at what they do right there. It's taken a while for The Players to find a true identity. Deane Beman’s dream was to create a fifth major, run by the PGA Tour, a true Players Championship. But you can’t force things like that, and the media and a lot of fans rebelled. The move to a permanent home was met with some resistance by Tour players who were building a golf course design business of their own and didn’t think the Tour should be their competition. The Stadium Course itself struggled early-on with problems associated with being built in a swamp. And did the Tour want the winning score to be Greg Norman’s -24 or David Duval’s -3 on their home course? Active 53 The Tour is in Ponte Vedra because Beman brought it here. The success and the size of the volunteer force at the Greater Jacksonville Open convinced him that North Florida was the right place. The tournament is here because, through a few machinations, Deane couldn’t buy Sawgrass Country Club and the Fletchers had the foresight to sell the land to the Tour for $1 to build their course. They’ve gone through a lot of growing pains to get where they are now, even forgetting that Jacksonville, and all of North Florida and South Georgia, is where their bread’s buttered. Nonetheless, the tournament’s in the right spot, and in the right hands, with the right leadership, poised to grow in the players, the fans and the media’s eye every year.
