Haneef-Park, Joines Tamas A Tall Order on Dr. Phil

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (Dec. 11, 2009) - Tayyiba Haneef-Park (Laguna Hills, Calif.) and Jennifer Joines Tamas (Milpitas, Calif.), both members of the U.S. Women's National Volleyball team and part of the silver-medal roster at the 2008 Olympic Games, know a thing or two about being tall.

Haneef-Park stands 200 centimeters tall, or 6-feet, 7-inches. Only two other women's volleyball players were taller than her at the 2008 Olympic Games - both Russian players who are 202 centimeters tall, less than one inch taller than Haneef-Park. Joines Tamas is listed on international rosters at 191 centimeters tall, nearly 6-3 1/2 in feet and inches. At the 2008 Olympic Games, she was the second tallest player on the U.S. Women's Olympic Team roster behind Haneef-Park.

In October of 2009, Haneef-Park and Joines Tamas jumped at the opportunity to share their story of growing up tall when asked to appear on the popular nationally syndicated television show Dr. Phil. Joines Tamas was contacted by her friend and editor of Volleyball Magazine, Erin Pryor, who had a friend working for the Dr. Phil show looking for tall, confident women to be part of a Dec. 2 episode titled "Parents' Biggest Fears." The episode would feature individual segments dealing with children's height, designer babies and sick children facing extreme odds for recovery.

Editor's Pick: 'Modern Warfare' Aside, Gaming Industry's Not Bulletproof


'Modern Warfare' Aside, Gaming Industry's Not Bulletproof

Renay San Miguel
12/11/09 12:02 PM PT
Speculation over why video game sales aren't climbing out of their slump leads in many directions: Consumers are still tight-fisted due to the recession; deep discounts have hurt revenues; the gaming industry lags the overall economy; gamers are drifting toward cheap mobile games and free social network games. The big question is when -- or whether -- it will bounce back.

Today's Story Highlights

Top 10 Cloud Computing Flashpoints of 2009
Plenty of industry observers are already issuing their predictions for
2010, but I think it is worth taking a look back at the past year's
events to see how quickly the Software as a Service and cloud computing
marketplace is evolving. So, following are 10 events that I consider
bellwethers of the rapid evolution process.
http://www.ecommercetimes.com/story/68872.html

AT&T and the All-You-Can-Eat Dilemma
Listen. Wow. If you're reading this, there's a decent chance you've seen
the inundation of whiny news stories and blog posts over the widely
reported comments from Ralph de la Vega, president and chief executive
for mobility and consumer markets at AT&T, and the admission that AT&T's
data services suck -- my word -- in New York and San Francisco.
http://www.ecommercetimes.com/story/68876.html

Dissolving Customer Support Communication Barriers
Companies are gearing up for a strong finish to 2009, and consumers are
gearing up to acquire more high-tech gadgets from big box stores and
online retailers at highly competitive prices. This is a great time to
consider how companies can ensure customers are satisfied and successful
with their purchases and how they can plan ahead for 2010.
http://www.ecommercetimes.com/story/68873.html

New Chinese Rule Threatens Multinational High-Tech Sales
Foreign companies are criticizing a new Chinese regulation they fear
could block them from the multibillion dollar business of selling high-
tech products to government departments. The rule requires sellers of
high-tech products to have them accredited based on "indigenous
innovation" -- local intellectual property -- before they can be listed
in a government procurement catalog.

Sun Releases 3 Java Upgrades as EU Begins Merger Hearing
Despite plunging revenues due to the resistance of European regulators
to its pending acquisition by Oracle, Sun Microsystems has rolled out
enhancements to three key products in its Java platform. The timing of
the releases -- just as the European Union opens a two-day closed
hearing on the Oracle acquisition -- is probably not coincidental.
