This popular All-American baseball team was actually known as the Highlanders during its humble beginnings, but apparently the nickname Highlanders couldn't really catch on fast with the local sportswriters which is why they often used the monicker Yankees or Yanks (the nickname Yankees were actually coined from the fact that the New York Yankees were an All-American team while American locals are actually referred to as Yanks mostly by the British), since people obviously liked this nickname more, they decided to change their name in to the New York Yankees and they didn't change it ever since. The New York Yankees official logo was actually written in script form using the color red with a complementing red bat serving as the background of the k while it hangs down. The two other letters in the logo are actually just a k and an s which helps form a complete circle and actually give the logo the look of a baseball with matching baseball stitching. As a finishing touch, the logo is topped with Uncle Sam's hat that conveniently rests on the top of the bat.
The most famous insignia in sports is actually the interlocking NY which actually made its first appearance on the New York Yankees' (known then as the Highlanders) sleeves and caps way back in the year 1909. As the interlocking NY insignia gained more and more popularity, the New York Yankees decided to incorporate it at the front part of their uniforms while having matching navy blue baseball caps. The immensely popular interlocking NY insignia was actually designed way back in 1877 by a fellow named Louis B. Tiffany who originally designed the popular insignia for a NYPD officer named John McDowell who was highly regarded at that time for his bravery and dedication to his work. Mr. McDowell was actually the first New York police officer who was shot during the time of duty. Bill Devery, who was a former police chief as well as one of the New York Yankees original owners chose the popular insignia for the New York Yankees' uniforms, he made the insignia a permanent fixture on the baseball players' uniforms.
The official team colors of the New York Yankees are Navy Blue, Red and White. While the New York Yankees team motto is courage, tradition and heart. While there are actually two New York Yankees songs, the official song being "Here Comes the Yankees" while the unofficial song is "New York, New York". From 1903 up to the present, the New York Yankees had several managers, 41 all in all, starting with Clark Griffith to Joe Torre (the current New York Yankees manager from the year 1996 up to the present). The New York Yankees has a total of 26 world champions to date while a World Series appearance totalling to 39 all in all. The New York Yankees also boasts of 40 Hall of Fame awardees, including the ever popular Joe DiMaggio (1936-1942, 1946-1951) and Mickey Mantle (1951-1969) - he was even able to acquire three Most Valuable Awards during his career with the New York Yankees, while Joe DiMaggio had three as well and everyone's favorite, Babe Ruth received just one.
Since the establishment of their baseball team, the Highlanders (better known as the New York Yankees) had their worst season way back in 1908 wherein the New York Yankees, for he very first time in franchise history, actually dropped to last place with a horrible record of 51-103.

Kathy Ireland was eliminated from Dancing With the Stars tonight. It was sad for many reasons, but the main was is because she brought elegance to the show. Sure, you can wear the sexy outfits, and do things that should only be done in the bedroom between a man and his wife,because it is expectation of society. Sex sells.
Kathy Ireland brought something different. She brought elegance and style. She showed that a woman does not have to be naked, or nearly so to engage a man. A real woman has grace, a sense of mystery, and shares parts of herself with others as the relationship warrants. She is not a buffet or trash can for people to throw their junk into. A lady is a lady at all times.
When did carrying yourself like a lady get such a bad rap? Has our society deteriorated to the point that the only time we want to listen to women is in the bedroom? I hope not, but sadly, TV is proof of how low women are still viewed. All the naked scenes in movies and shows, are women. It is rare that men bare it all.
Kathy Ireland said she did Dancing With the Stars to prove to her daughters that they can do anything if they were willing to work for it. Her lesson has been learned by all women. She may not have received the prize for the show, but if there was an award for kindness, dignity, elegance, and grace, it would be hers hands down.
Her selfless reason for doing Dancing With the Stars was to help raise money and awareness for nonprofit organizations. She did that, and did it well. Because of her participation, they will receive money for their organizations, and they don't have to worry about how they were represented. Thats a win.
Her dancing days may be over, but the character that brought her to the show will remain, because it is who she is at her core. She is an elegant woman.

Pres Obama and his supporters consistently bring up race whenever anyone disagrees with his policies. They overlook the problem might be the policy and not the color of his skin. Enough with the race card tactics, ii's time for a real debate.

Never close your heart to love in an attempt to avoid being hurt. The thing you need to heal is love.
Great things happening lately. Business is good and growing. It proves that taking the right action can save tons of time and energy. Loving what I do.
