Kim Kardashian May Keep The Engagement Ring But It Will Cost Her

2011-11-23T10:25:00.000-08:00

This should really not come as much of a shock, but Kim Kardashian included a clause in the pre-nup which allows her to buy the ring from Kris for the original purchase price in the case of a divorce. Hmm, interesting that she would have that put in case of a divorce. Smells like it could have all been pre-planned to me. Most people think the wedding was a sham, and I tend to agree with that as well. The ring has a value of around 2 million dollars.

Some of the things coming out make you wonder if it was just a marriage for television and ratings. Kris Humphries was not the greatest husband in his short time with Kim from what I have learned as well. I guess it worked out well for both parties. Kris got some face time and of course Kim got the press that she seems to thrive in these days. No matter what anyone tells me it has smelled sham from the very beginning and still does.

Lindsey Lohan Just Does Not Get It Anymore

2011-11-05T17:52:00.000-07:00

I will admit that some people do not get it and Lindsey Lohan is one of them. At her probation hearing on Wednesday she received a sentence of 30 days in jail for probation violation. Lindsay was also told she must complete her community service requirement or risk landing in jail for an additional 270 days. Now that is all and good, but will the judge go through with it.

I think that Miss Lohan has got more than enough chances. If it was a regular citizen they would never get as many chances as Miss Lohan has so far. It's time to stop giving this lady chances because she does not get it anymore. Put her in jail and let her think about all the chances she blew. Regular everyday people do, so why can't stars be treated the same way. It is time we get rid of the double standard and make stars accountable for their mistakes just like everyday people have too.

Tupac's Mom Still Living With Grief Even 15 Years Later

2011-09-14T07:05:00.000-07:00

It does not seem like it has been 15 years since we lost a musical icon, but that's how long it has been since Tupac's death. His mom still feels the pain as if it happened yesterday. Losing a son is tough, and especially when no killer has been brought to justice it. Millions still mourn the passing of Tupac as no one has ever realized the impact he had on the world in such a short time. They say time heals all wounds, but for Tupac's mom that has not been the case. Below we have a video for Tupac fans to remember him by. He was a musical icon that has transcended time and never will be forgotten.

EBay Classifieds being Investigated By Dept of Justice

2011-09-14T06:54:00.000-07:00

They say copying is the most sincere form of flattering, but I do not know if the Dept of Justice or Craigslist is seeing any humor in it. It seems that Ebay Classifieds are being investigated by the Dept of Justice for having a model very similar to Craigslist. Ebay bought a stake in Craigslist back in 2004 and it seems they may have been copying things from them.

Many different parties have gotten subpoenas related to the investigation and it will be interesting to see how this all plays out. Craigslist has thought for a long time Ebay was stealing from them. I guess this will end up in court and it will be interesting to see how this all plays out for both sides. EBay believes that Craigslist's allegations against eBay are without merit. We will continue to vigorously defend ourselves, and we will aggressively pursue our claims against Craigslist. Of course Craigslist list had no comment. Let's see where this all leads us in the end.

Choosing The Right Exercise That Is Perfect For You

2011-07-04T19:07:00.000-07:00

The type of exercise you do all depends on you and
what you like to do. What you hate doing, paying
membership fees, and whether or not to buy equipment
are all things you need to consider as well as
answer.

If you choose something that you don't like to do,
you aren't going to keep doing it for a long period
of time. Give it some thought - if you don't like
jogging, you aren't going to get up at 6 AM and go
running. If you can't find something you like to
do, choose something you hate the least, which will
normally be walking.

Walking is great exercise, as it suits all levels
of fitness. Anyone can start a walking program at
any time, it's normally the intensity and duration
that differs. Walking is also a social exercise,
as it isn't difficult to find a training partner
to chat with while you exercise. Walking with a
partner will also make time go by faster.

No matter what exercise you choose, you should
start at a low level of intensity and build it up
over a period of weeks, which is essential to the
longevity of your exercise program. If you start
off too hard, you could end up with an injury
which will require time off to get over.

If you are really in bad shape, you should start
off by walking for 10 minutes each day. Then,
increase it by 5 minutes every 2 weeks. To make
things more interesting, you should try walking
a different course every few days. You can also
roster a different friend to walk with you each
day of the week.

If walking isn't your thing, then you may want
to try a fitness center. They have loads of
variety and normally have trainers on hand to
answer any questions you may have. When you
choose a fitness center, make sure that they give
good service.

If they aren't willing to treat you well before
you join, then they certainly won't after you
join. You should also make sure that the equipment
they use is well taken care of. It's easy to
find out, as all you have to do is listen to the
machines. If they squeak a lot or make noise,
then chances are they aren't being taken care of.

If you still aren't sure what you should do, then
you should look into golf or tennis. Both are
good social activities in most areas, and you can
even meet new friends. Tennis is great for fitness
although it isn't for someone who is just starting
out. If you haven't exercised in a long time,
then golf may be the best activity for you.

Arnold Schwarzenegger Would Have Been Better Served To Keep Quiet

2011-05-19T08:16:00.000-07:00

It seems that Arnold Schwarzenegger would have been better served if he would have just kept quiet about his affair. It would have probably came out eventually, but now he has made life a living hell for his mistress and her 13 year old kid. The media will be hounding them non-stop to try and get a story. Arnold should have just kept quiet and went on with his life for the child's sake. It was nice he did come clean, but should did it in the privacy of his home and not in the public eye.

I guess he thought what he was doing was the best thing, but I am not so sure about that. Now that his wife has left him I guess he had nothing left to hide from her. It will be interesting to see how this all plays out in the end. No matter how it does there are no real winners in all of this. Every party is losing and now the mistress and her child will be in the public eye more than ever before.

Tea Cups Pigs The Latest Crazy Craze

2010-07-08T06:40:00.000-07:00

tYes, it's hard to believe, but Tea Cups Pigs are the latest crazy craze that is sweeping the world. These animals are the size of a tea cup and are not cheap to buy, but that has not slowed the popularity of these things down. When fully grown they will only weigh between 30-60 lbs which is not bad. They also have a life expectancy of 20 years so they do live awhile. When born they are the size of a tea cup and that is where the name comes from.

They also can be litter trained very easily as well. You will probably see these more often as stars and others start breeding them. The bad part is these little things will be bred to death and health problems could come of it. They are cute I will have to admit that. I do not think I ever want them as a pet though, but you never know as more and more people buy them they become more mainstream.

George Michael Continues Downward Spiral

2010-07-07T12:08:00.000-07:00

George Michael continues his downward spiral as he was arrested after a crashing a car into a building. The 47-year-old, who was banned for driving for two years in June 2007, was reported to have crashed into a branch of a photography shop near his home in the leafy north London suburb of Hampstead on Sunday.

In 2006, Michael was found slumped over the wheel of his car and in June 2007 was given a two-year driving ban after pleading guilty to driving while unfit. He claimed he was tired and had been taking prescription drugs. It's a shame that Michael does not get it together. He was a talent and it seems that he continues to spiral out of control. Hopefully, he will figure it out soon, but I seriously doubt it.

Pawn Stars Something Everyone Should See

2010-07-07T11:01:00.000-07:00

The History Channel every now and then surprises me with some of their programming. Pawn Stars is one of those shows that have been proven to be worth watching. The show profiles Rick Harrison; his father, The Old Man; and his son, Corey, as cameras follow them around their Gold And Silver Pawn Shop in Las Vegas. Some humor is thrown in with the help of Chumlee, Corey's best friend who helps manage the increasingly popular pawn shop.

What makes this show stand out from the crowd is the lessons it teaches. People will bring in things to sell and usually the viewer will get an interesting history lesson in the process. On pawn stars they try to get it for a low price so they can resell it for profit. It's how they use to do it many years ago. On Pawn Stars you will see many items that you probably will never see anywhere else. It's on Monday Nights at 10PM on the History Channel. Check it out it is enjoyable television for a change.

THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE - Featurette "Newborn Vampire Army"

2010-06-27T17:24:00.000-07:00

Twilight Eclipse Only Days Away Are You Ready

2010-06-27T17:18:00.000-07:00

Twilight fans have started the countdown as the release of the third movie in the Twilight series Eclipse will hit the theaters on June 30, 2010. This series is not as bad as I thought it would be. In fact I do find myself actually enjoying the movies and this third installment should be an interesting one. The plot centers around a string of killings and Bella must make a choice between her love Edward and her friendship with Jacob.

Many people like the eclipse book the best out of all of them that was written. I never read them so I cannot really say. I know this series continues to garner great numbers at the box office and this new movie should do very well. My daughter loves the series so I will be checking it out. Eclipse should be an interesting movie and even if your not into vampires you will still find something you like I bet. I know I did with the first two and probably will with this edition as well.

Hail Storm Hits Oklahoma

Get Rid Of Ronald McDonald OMG NO!

2010-05-20T17:00:00.000-07:00

Yes, can you believe it some people want McDonalds to retire the character Ronald McDonald. The critics say that Ronald McDonald promotes bad eating habits in children and that he should slowing ease into retirement. Luckily. McDonalds CEO Jim Skinner told a room of shareholders that there are no plans at all to retire the character Ronald McDonald.

Ronald McDonald is a good force who is a friend to children. Ronald McDonald charities have raised millions of dollars for various things. People have for years wanted to get rid of Ronald McDonald, but the restaurant chain as resisted the pressure from a variety of groups. Now with children's eating habits getting worse they are coming down on Ronald McDonald. I give McDonalds for standing it's ground and not retiring Ronald McDonald anytime soon.

How Will Robin Hood Fare This Weekend?

2010-05-13T12:48:00.000-07:00

The movie Robin Hood starring Russell Crowe comes out this week and for the most part it has been panned by the critics. This never seems though to be the death of a movie. Many movies who have been panned have gone on to do well among moviegoers. Maybe the biggest thing that the Robin Hood movie will deal with is Iron Man 2. Iron Man 2 did very well in the opening week and it will give Robin Hood a run for it's money.

Even though the critics has been rough on the movie it should do fairly well. It has a decent cast and with Russell Crowe leading the way it should do fine. The key will be word of mouth with Robin Hood. If some people really like it and spread the word it could do much better than anyone could imagine. I guess we will have to wait and see how this works out this weekend.

Freddy Krueger Still A Money Maker

2010-05-03T05:59:00.000-07:00

The remake of Nightmare On Elm Street scared away the competition this weekend at the box office with a take of 32.2 million dollars. This newest installment should do well for awhile until IronMan2 comes out. The best part for Warner Bros is this filmed really had no top stars and it did not cost a lot to make. Once the run is over DVD sales will come so do not be surprised if Nightmare On Elm Street does 70-75 million when all said and done. Not to bad for a film that did not cost a lot to make.

Movie buffs love scary villains such as Freddy Krueger and Michael Myers and these types of films do well. It did help that there really was not much competition at the theater as well. No matter Freddy Krueger continues to bring in the dollars. It seems we all like a good scare every now and then and this weekend was no exception.

Sandra Bullock Adopts Baby, Kicks Jesse James To The Curb

2010-04-28T13:56:00.000-07:00

Sandra Bullock has been quiet, but that does not mean she has not been busy. In People magazine she reveals what she has been up to lately. She has adopted a baby boy which she plans to raise by herself. She has also filed divorce from her husband Jesse James which is really no surprise. Bullock and James filed for adoption together, but Bullock will finalize the adoption by herself. With James out of her life Bullock looks to get on with her life.

You have to give Sandra Bullock after all she has been through the past few months she still puts a smile on. She could have done many different things, but she is a strong woman and you have to tip your hat to her. Besides being a great actress and mom deep down she is a fine human being as well. These days qualities like that are real tough to come by. I hope the best for her and her new baby boy which I am sure really brightens he world up on a daily basis.

Corey Feldman Will Not Be Attending Corey Haim Funeral

2010-03-15T16:21:00.000-07:00

Corey Feldman has decided that it is best if he does not attend Corey Haim's funeral. According to him it is going to be a small family affair and he wants to give Haim's family time to grieve. Feldman has indicated he probably will have a service later in about a month. Haim and Feldman were friends, but in recent years had their disagreements and that is a shame. Losing a close friend is never easy especially the way Haim was lost.

Prescription drugs is a growing problem in the United States. More and more people are abusing prescription drugs than ever before. People can buy these drugs through the Internet and the blackmarket. This trend will continue as long as the demand continues to grow. Maybe the death of Corey Haim will be a wakeup call for people, but I seriously doubt it. This problem has been around for the longest time and something needs to be done about it or we will be burying more people who are dying too young.

Flood kills 246 in Philippines

2009-09-29T17:32:00.000-07:00

Flood victims trudged through ankle-deep sludge to crowded relief centers in the Philippines on Tuesday, as the death toll rose to 246 from water that inundated the homes of nearly 2 million people. Tropical Storm Ketsana brought the worst flooding to the Southeast Asian country in four decades, chasing some victims to their rooftops to escape the rising water and sweeping others down raging rivers.

The storm struck Saturday in Manila, one of the world's largest cities with about 12 million people, and dumped more than a month's worth of rain in just 12 hours. Flooding was worst around the Pasig River that cuts through the capital, including wealthy suburbs and shanty towns. The presidential palace was opened as a relief center, and President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo's executive chef cooked gourmet food for victims at another shelter. Ketsana strengthened and crashed into central Vietnam on Tuesday, killing at least 23 people who drowned, were caught in mudslides or hit by falling trees, officials said. Some 170,000 people were evacuated.

More Money In Your Paycheck Soon

2009-03-31T07:44:00.000-07:00

Many Americans will be seeing more money in their paychecks in the coming weeks. The credit is available to those with earned income. It's worth up to $400 a year for single filers and $800 for joint filers.President Obama has asked that all employers adjust their payroll systems by Wednesday so eligible workers can start receiving the new Making Work Pay tax credit through their paychecks. The credit, available for 2009 and 2010, was a part of the economic recovery package lawmakers passed in February.

Now do not look at your check expecting this great big windfall because it is not coming. divide the 400 or 800 by 52 weeks and you will see it is not a great amount, but in a time of recession every little dollar can sure help us. I guess this is a start, but we still have a long way to go before we are out of this recession, but more money in our pockets cannot hurt.

Twilight Movie Better Then I Thought!

2009-03-31T07:41:00.000-07:00

Now I will start this post out by first saying that I am no Twilight fan at all or have ever read the books from this movie. I have a 17 year old daughter named Chelsie who loves the books and movie and recently she got the movie also. Of course she also went to the theaters as well when the movie first came out. I had been avoiding watching it even though she has asked me numerous times to watch it with her. Well, I opened my big mouth and promised this past weekend I would watch it which I did.

My first impressions when I seen the previews on television was I would hate this movie and it would be a big bore, but it was for my daughter so I thought I would keep an open mind. After about two hours of watching the film I must admit it was a very good movie and one that people should see. Now I am not into the vampire or werewolf thing, but it was well written and well acted and I found myself very interested in the storyline. I will never go out and read the book series, but it is a good movie and one that people should check out.

Eyeglasses Getting The Right Ones

2009-03-06T05:57:00.000-08:00

It seems one of the things that we need to take better care of is our eyes. Many times we forget that we have only one set and improper care can really hurt us down the road. When people first hear the word glasses many crazy thoughts pop in our minds.

One company that I have found that gives superior customer service and makes sure you have what you need is www.eyeglasses.com. With a very vast selection and the ability to get you the right set of glasses that you need makes this company your first choice in eye wear.

Over the years glasses have really changed for the better. No longer are they big and bulky as designers have made them lightweight and designed in a way the people love. Getting the perfect set of glasses is not hard if you just take your time and ask plenty of questions and get the pair that is just right. My favorite place to shop for them is at www.eyeglasses.com as the selection and service they give you is second to none.

Stephen King Not A Fan Of Twilight Series

2009-02-04T07:00:00.000-08:00

It seems that Stephen King the horror writer is not a big fan of the Twilight series or writer Stephanie Meyer. King is quoted in a USA Weekend article say that Meyer cannot write worth a darn. He lumped her and J.K. Rowling of Harry Potter fame together, but said the big difference was that Rowling could write and Meyer could not.

Now I am sure Stephanie Meyer will not lose any sleep over what King had to say as she is doing quite well right now. Of course though having others rip your work apart is never any fun either. It will be interesting to see what kind of response that the Meyer camp gives if they give any at all.

Pink Roses are one of the more popular varieties and women love them anytime of the year just give some and you will see what I am talking about. 1800flowers have one of the biggest selections around and should be looked at especially if you are planning to send some to a loved one.

For most long stem roses are the way to go as nothing beats a dozen of these beauties to brighten some one's day. Now if you have a real special lady than a dozen red roses will definitely do the trick for you. Roses continue to popular and with new varieties coming out every year that should only increase.

Amazing No One Died

2009-01-16T09:03:00.000-08:00

After watching the footage of Flight 1549 and everything they went through it was amazing to me that no lives were lost. You can credit the pilot for do a wonderful job and the crew as well. Rescue teams were there pretty fast as well which makes all the difference. It is still amazing to me, but I am glad no one died in this crash.

Hopefully we will be able to find out what went wrong so this does not happen again. At least no lives were lost and it looks like someone was watching over this flight. Called it a gift from God or whatever you want they were very lucky indeed.

Chocolate The Wonder Treat

2008-11-28T07:52:00.000-08:00

Okay I will admit it I love chocolate candy and who does not in this world that we live in. I mean look at some of the things available and you can see why people gravitate to this treat more than anything else. From chocolate towers to those gift boxes the holidays bring more chocolate than you can imagine and you get to taste it all.

The hardest part is just picking one treat over all the others. Having different things such as strawberries, cherries, pineapple dipped in chocolate it just brings back so memories and you just cannot have one. It seems the more you taste the more you want. There is no doubt that chocolate candies do that for me. One place that I have found to quench my chocolate thirst has been Fannie Mae as they have everything I need to make me happy.

Sarah Palin Still In Limelight

2008-11-26T09:22:00.000-08:00

It seems as many people want Sarah Palin to go away as those who want to see her still around. Palin is going to be a major player in the future and right now she is looking over book deals and other things as well. This is something that will just help her popularity as I look for her to run for President in four years.

The Republicans need some fresh new voices and even though many people do not always agree with her she is a fresh voice that people are going to hear. Right now book and movie deals are being offered so look for her to be around for a long time to come.

Twilight Move Won't End With Just One Movie

2008-11-14T16:00:00.000-08:00

The Twilight Movie which will be released this Thursday will not be the last movie that you see in this series. The director also has rights to other books in the series so look for more vampire movies in the future. If The Twilight Movie becomes a big hit which from all looks it will be look for more vampire movies from others as well to hit the screen very quickly.

Even The Twilight Movie Soundtrack has already hit No.1 on the billboard charts which is impressive considering it has not even been released yet. It has some top stars on it and the soundtrack will be a big seller once the movie is released this Thursday.

Obama Widens Lead Over McCain

2008-10-07T07:28:00.000-07:00

When I read stories about polls I do have to laugh as many polls are just totally not very accurate. Personally I wish they would not release polls as they sometimes do change people's minds. When we see a poll that tells us one person is way ahead we tend to listen and not vote at all.

According to the latest poll Obama is widening his lead on McCain if you believe the numbers. I guess we do need polls for certain reasons, but in my opinion they are really not needed, but as long as they are a demand for them we will still have them.

Stocks Falling On Wall Street

2008-10-06T10:36:00.000-07:00

The Stock market went below 10,000 for the first time in four years as many people are selling what they have. Over 3,000 stocks were heading down today and this trend of sell-offs will probably continue for awhile. One thing that many people have not figured in is the United States is not the only country with this problem. More countries are dealing with credit crunch and they really have no plans in place to fix it.

For right now the sell-off will probably continue until we see how everything is going to play out. Just like anything else you must ride it out and see were it goes before you decide to totally jump out of the stock market. Usually people who ride it out will do well in the end.

"Beverly Hills Chihuahua" Top Box Office Dog

2008-10-05T16:12:00.000-07:00

"Beverly Hills Chihuahua" was the top dog at the box office this weekend. The movie grossed up to 29 million in ticket sales during the opening this weekend. Many people must have loved this as the previews that I seen makes me wonder what people see in this movie.

The thriller Eagle Eye with Shia LaBeouf fell to No.2 with a take of 17.7 million dollars and a two-week total of 54.6 million. "Beverly Hills Chihuahua" was released by Walt Disney who has been known to release much such as these. Hopefully we will not have to see to many movies such as these.

Astronaut's Diary Survives Columbia Crash

2008-10-04T06:49:00.000-07:00

Ilan Ramon an Israel astronaut who was on the space shuttle Columbia which blew up when in entered the atmosphere will have parts of his diary on display. It was amazing to me that a diary could survive the crash, but it has. I guess you could call this an act of God as that is the only thing that really can explain it.

The diary did have to have some work on it as it was in no shape to display when found. It was found in Texas and was probably one of the feel pieces that was left from this disaster. At least we have some insight into this man and his journey on the trip.

Who Won The Debate Palin Or Biden?

2008-10-03T19:39:00.000-07:00

The vice-presidential debate biggest question was who really won. In my opinion both of the candidates did what they had to do and no one really won. The bottom line is neither one really screwed up so both sides can chalk up a win. In reality though the American public lost as the issues always get put to the back burner which is a shame.

Instead of blaming one part or the other these candidates should be looking ways to make lives easier on Americans instead of throwing mud at each other. I know it is politics, but many Americans are struggling and that is what they should be worried about and not anything else. Americans want to hear real solutions not a bunch of talk to make one party look better than the other.

Gary Collins Arrested For DUI

2007-10-25T05:06:00.000-07:00

Gary Collins was involved in an accident when an 89 yr old driver didn't yield and they collided. Collins wasn't at fault, but when police arrived they gave him a sobriety test which he failed and was promptly arrested for a DUI charge. Now this is common among Hollywood sect it seems DUI's. I guess they think they aren't going to get caught.

The biggest thing I really don't understand if you have the money pay someone to drive you home or call a cab. Save yourself the embarrassment and the hassle you deal with going through the court systems.

Mark Cuban Given The Boot

2007-10-24T08:58:00.000-07:00

I have to give Mark Cuban credit as I thought he wouldn't last as long as he did. He looked in good shape after losing 30 lbs and he has a basketball team to run anyways so it was probably good he got the boot. Dancing from the stars are about real dancers and Cuban just wasn't good enough.

I'm sure though he enjoyed himself and learned a lot in the process so for him it was just pure joy. Hopefully one day he will look back and realize he shouldn't have lasted as long as he did.

Carrie Underwood Feeling The Pressure

2007-10-23T18:08:00.000-07:00

If their is one thing a singer never wants to do it's have success that you can't repeat. Carrie Underwood is in that spot right now. With over 6 million copies of her debut album sold her second album is slated for a Tuesday release. If you see a nervous smile from her you will know why now.

It's always hard to top your previous work, but that is what people expect out of you fair or not. People want you to keep breaking your own records, but to be honestly that's very hard to do. if her fans are happy with the album that's all that really matters. Carrie knows the sales will come, but keeping her fans happy is almost what pays the bills.

Boycott Britney?

2007-10-23T17:30:00.000-07:00

Yes, some of Britney Spears former friends and ex employees have put up a myspace page and is promoting it as a way to boycott her new album that is coming out until she gets her life straighten out. Now this I really don't understand one bit.

Where were these people when they were hanging with her. They were enjoying the good life instead of getting Britney help she needed. Now they want everyone to listen to them and boycott her new album. The problem is they don't have much creditability since they did nothing to help Britney when they were around her.
