The longer the better if it's by one of my favorites.

Hair length
First let me say that I am appalled that some "neighbors" would have the audacity to tell you how to wear your hair.
Second, I just watched a segment on Today (Meredith leaves at 9:00 so I didn't get a chance to look at her hair) but they did a makeover on a woman that I would say is "retirement age" and the length was just above her shoulders and she looked fabulous.
Now adays we are always hearing "love your body", well that includes your hair. If your are happy and you are fortunate enough to have a hubby that cares enough to try to make you feel better, than more power to you.
length vs loss
Wear it as you want it and the heck with others.
Just a warning, though -- The women on my mother's side of the family lose their hair. My mother was BALD. So I try to keep what I've got. It's very fine, shoulder length in the front and longer in the back. I look hideous when it is down. I use a hinged thing (forget the name) or a scrunchie thing to keep it up out of the way but keep it loose, no pulling. I can't go short because too much scalp shows. At 56, it is still mostly chestnut with a little gray mixed in. Never dye it, never use rollers, perms. Nothing. Let it dry by itself and only use dryer when I must. Gotta save it and these things can harm it (or so I've been told/read).
I wrote this because in researching how to preserve your hair, it says that length pulls on the roots and in older women this causes hair loss so that's something to keep in mind. If it gets much longer than this, I can feel a pull and out come the scissors.
I also wear it in a French twist in the back when I want to get dressed up with combs in an upsweep on either side of my face. This is easy on the hair and draws attention upward with the combs and away from my falling face! I also use only Castile soap (from pharmacy) on it. That's all my great-grandmother used and she's the only one who had a full head of hair in old age. I don't need a conditioner with this and it feels clean after I wash it and not coated or soapy. It is bar soap and hard so a bar lasts a long, long time. Costs about $3.
I think just watching her for any length of time,
say 2 or 3 minutes and you absolutely know something is not right. She appears on a shopping channel with her jewelry and anyone can watch and see. We don't have to have anyone tell us, just watching is enough.
A tea-length basic black dress?
What kind of company does your husband work for? Would that help in your decision? My opinion is you can't go wrong with black. Accessorize to make the dress "pop". Nicely of course. Congrats to your husband for his award.
Hair length and age input appreciated sm
I am what one would would call "retirement age" and a grandmother. I have always had very nice hair and keep it neat and clean. I still have most of my light brown color and highlight slightly every 3-4 mos. I use hot rollers or a roller set if I am going out or if I feel I need it. My stylist and most people tell me I have very beautiful hair. I let it grow to about the length of Meredith Viera's on the "Today" Show but I get remarks from a few neighborhood "cats,", i.e., "At your age, perhaps you should cut your hair." My husband loves my hair and hates when I cut more than an inch off and yet I feel sloppy and as though I am trying to look "younger than my stated age." My husband thinks the few women who say this to me are jealous and I am kind of on the fence as I feel perhaps I'm kidding myself. Anyone else have hair almost chin length in their older years? Don't be mean - it's just a little "girl talk" here, Sometimes it helps to talk it over with the girls. Just keeping the conversation light for a change and trying to grow old gracefully without disappointing my husband. I have had worse decisions to make in my life! Much worse!
the length is about 80 minutes long, per the client, no special format.

I think they start to become concerned when femur length is two standard deviations below normal
which equals about 5 weeks or 6 weeks behind in length. And you said you were told something like 2 or 3 weeks behind. I wouldn't worry. You may just be having a small baby who may be a short person or maybe your dates are a little off. There are so many variables in pregnancy.
Both my kids measured below the standard for femur length on ultrasound (about 2 weeks behind), but I'm 5 feet 2 inches and my ex-husband is 5 feet 4 inches, so my kids weren't going to be big. My son always measured in the 5th percentile and was always of the smallest kid in his class. Now at age 14, he's taller than his dad and is probably going to reach about 5 feet 9 inches! My daughter is still in kindergarten and she is the smallest in her class and measures in the 5th percentile. I've had doctors say things like "we need to watch his/her growth closely" blah, blah, blah. I'm little, my ex is little, and consequently, my kids were little.
Best advice, DON'T WORRY! When you're pregnant there's a tendency to worry about every little thing! I would suggest talking to the genetics doctor and going from there. Do your own research and have questions ready when you go.
Good Luck!
Would you report.
If you saw someone moving there furniture out of the house 2 days before their housefire?
That's right. I had one report where pt had SM
cancer of the pancreas and, according to report, was supposd to be dead ten years ago. The guy was alive and doing fairly well with gastrostomy tube. I doubt when doctors give so much time left to live, unless the patient is in really bad shape and we are talking about days; but years? No. SIL may be around for a lot longer.
As for me, I would go to Europe. Maybe stay in Europe! LOL!
Here's two from the same report
Cataractectomy and hyperpotassemia. I used to always change these to cataract extraction and hyperkalemia but in these days of verbatim, I put them through as is. They just look stupid to me.
My ER report today -
CHIEF COMPLAINT: Difficulty pooping. 
Third report of the morning...
Doctor starts to spell patient's name...D - i - g, as in Zebra. Yes, he's an ESL and it's too early in the morning for this! 
Get a copy of the op report!
Request a copy of that report or call the physician who performed the procedure. I was put under general for a procedure that should have been done under conscious sedation. I complained of throat soreness, and couldn't understand why. Hence, the OR report confirmed general anesthesia! Oh my gosh! How rude for that tech to say that to your husband! I have never heard of having a colonoscopy without at least some Valium preprocedure, but I guess it could be.
this was a preliminary report - sorry....sm
preliminary is what Dr. Perper just said........and they do think a combination of drugs got her........but won't know for about a month.
I read the report--sm
and this is what I gleaned from it.
First off, this doctor may be an orthopedic hand surgeon, but in this case, along with others, he was a *study researcher*. He and some colleagues, also *study researchers* read 117 reports, but they did not specify where these *reports* came from. (hmmmm). This was not something he had *discovered* on his own and through his own work as an orthopedic surgeon. This was something he *read.*
Anyway, his conclusion from *reading these reports* was, *A major risk factor for carpal tunnel is genetics.*
The very next sentence says, *Exactly what these genetic factors are is not known.* (hmmm)
Then he also says *The quality and strength of evidence supporting genetics or inherent risk factors was felt to be MODERATE.*
Moderate??? 117 reports?? With all the carpal tunnel cases in the United States alone, I really do not feel that 117 reports from unspecified sources is the end-all and know-all for saying that repetitive use does not cause carpal tunnel. First off, I would want to know who these reports were written by, and pointing to only a *moderate* strength of evidence does not convince me, either. Basically, I would need much more proof than this. AND I would wonder exactly how much money this doctor and his co-researchers were paid to come up with this *conclusion.*
But, this is just my opinion. I do my research too and if it doesn't sound right, it usually isn't. Thanks for the link though and for giving me another opportunity to scrutinize yet another empty claim.
Take it seriously and report to the person
you would think would be most instrumental in getting the assistance she seems to need.
I wish to report my hubby
for the crime of stealing the affection of our foster dog, Cedric.
DH is home sick and I think it's a scheme to spend time with Cedric (though he would never admit this!) to win Cedric's heart over to love only him.
How did I lose control ... LOL.
In this day and age..absolutely. I'd report it to someone.

do not wait - do something now -- report her
Before another family or child is scarred by this counselor you need to write a letter to the principal and to the school board documenting everything that has happened. If you let it go, it will continue and harm other children. I am all for making children accountable for their actions and sometimes feel that parents do coddle too much sometimes but in this occurence -- do not and I really urge you to do something about it and report it. If you stand by and let this continue then you are partially responsible -- more of us need to become involved and do something about things like this. Let us know what happens. Just document in writing everything that has happened and does happen.
they can be put on your credit report...
I know for sure b/c I have one on mine. :(
Header on an ER report
I will never forget--
ATV versus Tree.
ATV lost.
Rates right up there with bus versus bicycle. Bicycle lost. Car versus semi. Car lost. Car versus pedestrian. Pedestrian lost.
I'd report her to her superiors.
I'd be into that principal's office in a hot minute, have that teacher, and her union rep right there and have her disciplined. That is a breech of confidentiality and by no means should she have done that; it is nobody's business what condition that young boy has or deals with every day.
The bullying needs addressed as well with the principal and those parents called, and then what you do is request he be switched to another school in the district or you'll take to the local newspaper.
I am so tired of these teachers thinking they can just speak to students any way they choose, and not expect any repercussions from it. I had a teacher tell my son that his "mother's sob story doesn't fly that you are adjusting to a new school." Well, I was hot! I set up a meeting and put her in her place, and the principal actually agreed with me and not her. I will not tolerate this any longer.
I am now wondering what to do about the fact that my son is being punished for swearing in the hallway to another student and has to serve a detention but the swearing occurred about a month ago. If that was the case, it needed to be addressed when it happened, not a month later. My son didn't even know what he was being called in about it was so darned long ago. These teachers need to understand that they are the ones that students are supposed to look up to, and this teacher in this OP's life obviously is not setting a good example. This just goes to show how this world has lots to improve upon including people in positions where they are impressionable on our youth. She was wrong, no ifs, ands, or buts about it. JMO.
Please report this to the police (sm)
This is threatening and dangerous behavior. he is not afraid to knock on your door or to leave a note. Please call the police and report this immediately.
GOOD REPORT~
My brother and his wife & son went to see them this a.m. and when they walked in Lindsay's room she was texting someone on her phone.. she actually, so they have said has worse injuries than Mikey, she messed up her spleen, lacerated her liver, had some internal bleeding & said they might have to do surgery, not sure about that yet, what they thought was a break was an old wound, not a new break.. Mikey's parents talked to the dr. this a.m. & said he would heal, had a collapsed lung, etc, but he is out of danger as far as whether he's gonna make it. so thanks for all the prayers and Thank God for them both going to be okay..
Reminds me of a GYN report I typed
was in her 80's and thought she was reaching for the KY jelly on her nightstand, but grabbed body wash instead while she was making whoopee. Poor thing had a terrible infection, hence her visit to the GYN. I still have to commend her for having you know what, plus KY jelly! Woohooooo! What a night, she must of had! Boy, did she pay for it in the end.
I would call the sheriff right now and report - seriously.
That is very, very unusual behavior and you need to make a record of it and protect yourself. Lock all your doors and be very, very cautious now. He knows you are alone now and vulnerable and who knows what he might do. Be careful!
According to news report today......sm
the reason it didn't pop up was because the system is not integrated and so this info would not have been found. I find it weird and scary that the state of Virginia found this man mentally ill and as a threat to himself and OTHERS, and STILL the system just let him walk off and back into the university system without any follow up on him.
Report this to animal control!
You need to file a report of both killings to the animal control officer. My neighbor had 2 Akitas (aggressive like chows) who attacked and killed my cat. Unfortunately my cat for some unknown mind boggling reason jumped over her fence into her fenced-in yard, BUT . . . these 2 dogs had also gotten loose a couple of times and attacked a woman getting her mail from her mailbox! Vicious dogs are vicious dogs and this needs to be documented by you. I feel so bad for your cats, but please don't let it happen to any other poor animals!
Thanks to everyone and I am happy to report I have been demoted... SM
to handing out programs at the service, another part of this wedding I do not understand. Is this a normal thing, programs at weddings? Maybe I've just been out of touch for too long or I'm just too kuntry, but I've never heard of a guest book attendant or having programs at a wedding.
Ah well, I'm just happy that when the food is served, I'll be comfy at my table ready to eat and not standing by some silly book making people sign it!
if it does show up on your credit report sm
You could try to get it removed. Tell the credit agency to remove it because you don't owe the money, that you sent a certified letter within 7 days to cancel this and that legally you don't owe it. Check out the state attorney general's office. If it were me, I would not pay it. If it does end up on your credit report, i don't know if paying it will get it removed.
You're doing my husband's report? (nm)
F.R.E.E. credit report.com baby. LOL.
That guy rapping with his little rice burner is HILARIOUS.. I find myself singing that song in the car.
You may have to report it but not as sibling abuse (sm)
Child abuse and neglect by the parents that BOTH children live with. The 8 year old doesn't need to be punished, they both need to be taken care of. The thing is, as you know DHS is not always going to fix the problem and if the mother finds out it was you, she will probably not let you see your GS again. That is a problem. I am not sure. Does your son have any type of rights to visitation, etc? Can he not go to court and say that his child is not being taken care of appropriately? Where is the older child's father?
Report it to EBay. Did you use PayPal to
pay for it?? If so, maybe they can cancel the payment.
Did that report say how many people celebrate Christmas...
for religious reasons as opposed to it being just a secular holiday for them?
Op report won't note combativeness, etc. Just 'discomfort'

I don't think medical bills can go on your credit report
Even though they referred you to a collection agency, I don't think medical bills can be reported on credit report.

I had a report with a baseball stuck in a man's rectum -
when the nurses asked him why a baseball, he responded that his wife was not home and it seemed like a good idea at the time!!!
Just saw a report on news where they listed it as a dangerous drug
apparently caused something that looked like malignant polyps in the colon but other than that, people told not to take it on a first date, not good idea and you should maybe, starting to take for first time, wear dark pants. I guess that is so the orange diarrhea won't show through so much.
Time to report the owner to Animal Control if you have a

Wish me luck! I will report anything traumatic tomorrow! I am gooing SM

And the story goes on and on...

It does still count as good credit.

Checks could be in taxpayer mailboxes by June, according to an Associated Press report.
Carfax relies on owners of the cars to report problems
We bought a "perfect" car, ྙ Olds (in 2000) that only had 45,000 miles on it. Loved that car but it was a flood car.The engine was still good but everything power plus the frame gave out in 5 years. Wouldn't pass inspection and had to junk it.
Nothing on Carfax had any of this info. So I'll never pay for a Carfax report again.
if actual threats then report it; keep all records/emails/calls for reference
