Kim Kardashian Helps With Haiti Efforts

Reality TV star and fashion diva Kim Kardashian plans to help out with the Haiti relief efforts by cleaning out her closet, and selling the items on eBay. Kim is not going at this alone, she is getting donations from her two sisters (Kloe and Kourtney), her mom, boyfriend Reggie Busch, and Kloes husband Lamar. Kim has set up an eBay store where the items will be listed, it is called Kims Closet, and the items sold on the eBay store will be donated to help Haiti.

On a side note Kim has just launched her own line of shoes called ShoeDazzle, where she is the companies chief stylist and has designed many of the shoes herself.

Will Smith For President?

Rumors are now circulating that actor/singer Will Smith is seriously considering a political career, and running for President of the United States is not out of the question. His wife Jada Pinkett Smith told The National Ledger that he is even willing to move his family to Washington D.C. to pursue his goal. She also says that he is serious and believes he could be elected.

What do you think, can an actor make a genuinely good candidate for President or will it be considered a joke, following in the footsteps of Arnold (the Govenator)? Personally I think Will Smith could be a good President... It might be time to get someone with an even different perspective with a fresher outlook and goals.

How To Lose Weight W/out Starving... Part I

We all know that in order to lose weight you need to burn more calories than you take in, usually involving a low cal diet with a regular exercise routine. Prevention Magazine gives us a few tips on how to lose weight without devoting hours in the gym of living on lettuce.

1) Fidget: Studies show that doing little things like tapping toes or choosing to stand instead of sit burns 350 more calories a day than those who sit, that equals 37 pounds a year!

2) Keep meals under 400 calories: and space them out evenly throughout the day. Studies show that if you make your meal time consistent that you are less likely to overeat, have better blood pressure and insulin response, and likely to burn more calories after eating... Just remember to make your meal choices healthy choices.

3) Get off of cruise control; Make your daily routine more active. Take the little things you do each day like vacuuming, walking the dog, or making dinner and make them more fun and active... add music, dance around, being goofy can burn those cals!

These are just three of the tips that Prevention has for you... check back tomorrow for more easy tips to lose some pounds.

HDTV's Prices Slashed In Time For Big Game.

Just in time for the 'Big Game' retailers are all trying to cash in on supplies for your big party, usually with displays of everything you need for food and drinks, to tee's and sweatshirts. This year electronics stores are thinking bigger, according to yahoo.com major retailers like Wal-Mart, Sears, and Best Buy are dropping or discounting the prices on their HDTV's hoping that in combo with the anticipation of the big game and the new lower price you will be motivated to upgrade to a new tv. I have read that retailers are taking discounts of 5% off and even some (depending on model of course) are dropping prices from $30 to $600 off! Like football or not, if you are shopping for a new tv now might be the time to buy.

Vikings Pro-Bowler Kicked Out Of Game

The Minnesota Vikings are still licking their wounds from their last game, that because of one bad throw denied them going to the Super Bowl. Now to add insult to injury one of their team members that was selected to play in the upcoming Pro-Bowl has been taken off the roster because of his poor (or lack of) actions. Left tackle Bryant McKinnie was kicked out of playing in the Pro-Bowl after he failed to attend practices and meetings last week, unexcused. It turns out the night life and clubs of Miami may be to blame, because even though he hasn't made it to practice it hasn't effected his ability to party. Now team members are upset and let-down by him because it limited who the NFC has to work with. Talk about a good year turned bad for the Vikes.

Miss America Crowned on Saturday Night

I was glued to my tv saturday for the 2010 Miss America pageant. First off... a HUGE congrats to Kristina Smaby from right down the road in Holmen, she represented us as Miss Wisconsin. She was one of the few girls nominated for the peoples choice. Unfortunately Kristina did not go on to the the top 15, but she looked absolutely gorgeous Saturday night. We are very proud of all of her accomplishments in this program. The rest of the pageant was filled with swim suits, singing and dancing, interview questions, and beautiful evening gowns. Taking the crown for the role of Miss America 2010 was... Miss Virginia.
