12 players from each conference will be selected to a pool, in which the 2 team captains will draft their teams. The leading vote in each conference will represent their own team, and the highest overall vote total will have the 1st pick in the All-Star Draft, also on TNT.

5 players from each conference will be decided by a 1/2 fan, 1/4 media, and 1/4 player vote. The 7 reserves will be selected completely by coaches, who cannot vote for their own players. Each conference's starters will consist of 2 guards and 3 front-court players (Forwards and Center). Each conference's reserves will consist of 2 guards, 3 front-court players, and 2 wild-card spots that can be any o

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.
