Shaq says on Twitter: ‘I’m about to retire’
He was a prolific producer of rebounds and record albums. And nicknames, too, as if at 7-foot-1 and 350 pounds he was too big for the simple “Shaq” that made him an instantly recognizable, one-name star in all of his endeavors.

What is the best hair straightner?
I have thick, course, hair. It is “straight”, but not stick-straight, like I want. It bends and “waves” at places like my ears, neck, and shoulders. I want to have pin-straight hair!
What hair straightners would you recommend for me? I am talking both brands and types like ceramic, etc. Obviously I’d rather it be cheap one but I’m willing to spend a little cash to get a high-quality straightner. Also, any straightening tips you might have for me. Thanks!
i have the same type of hair and problems that you have.
CHI is the best strightener out there…but they are like $200

Stores and gift ideas that are only from America? (things that are rare in Japan)?
I need gift ideas to send to my best friend in Japan. I want to get her something that everyone there will think is cool and that is either very rare or can’t be found in Japan. My friend is a 17 year-old girl. Can you please give me some ideas of stores that I can buy stuff from, and ideas that will be a great gift? Please note that I have to mail everything 
The first thing I would suggest would be things specific to your region in the states, though depending on what you have, that may be no good (for instance, if all you have are rare rocks or something, I’m not sure a 17 year-old girl would appreciate that, unless there was jewelry made from it). This can include local brands, however, so if you know her tastes and size, you could send clothing (jackets & hats are usually very safe, and I suggest sending a shirt that has something in English written on it – the Japanese love shirts like this, but she will be able to boast that hers actually makes sense), or perhaps a purse or wallet. If you have any sorts of art markets in your area, I’d recommend looking for things there.
Secondly, candy. I know that sounds juvenile, but I have always received Japanese candy when I had exchange students, and in the past I have been asked from a friend from Norway to send Pez and Pixie Stix – all of these girls were between 16 & 20.
Third, cater to her specific likings. Are there any American/British (since we get lots of their music over here) bands she’s a fan of? Buy her their CDs or posters. I know you may think that she can get them there, but only so many CDs/musicians are imported, and the prices of imported CDs are always much higher than domestic. Plus, having bought CDs by Japanese musicians that I could get in the states – even for a lower price – I can tell you that having it in the original language (the lyrics sheet) is so much more gratifying than having a translated version. Posters of actors/actresses she likes would be good, too. Don’t send movies, though, since the US and Japan have different DVD regions (meaning that there’s a good chance American DVDs will not play on her DVD player).
I hope these are useful suggestions.
