Time to Let Loose in the White House

Let’s all relax! Who doesn’t dread having to get “dressed up” to go to work? Day after day you put on that coat and tie all the while dreaming of endless casual Fridays. Well change has finally come to D.C. This should come as no surprise because President Obama did “[promise] to bring change to Washington and he has — not just in substance, but in presidential style.” The rule of coat and tie in the oval office at all times is out the window. That’s not all… “He shows up at the Oval Office shortly before 9 in the morning, roughly two hours later than his early-to-bed, early-to-rise predecessor. Mr. Obama likes to have his workout — weights and cardio — first thing in the morning, at 6:45. (Mr. Bush slipped away to exercise midday.)”

Show Some Skin

Alright, I need you all to take you tops off so we can take some pictures for a calendar. Wait, wait…it’s for a good cause! A local pet-supply store manager Suzi Wharton talked 15 of Goldsboro, North Carolina's most respected businesswomen out of their tops. Their animal shelter was in dire shape: “Each year around 7,000 dogs and cats arrived at the dank, 50-year-old building to be housed in overcrowded pens and stacked cat cages. Most never left. The place was so depressing that local residents didn't want to set foot in it, so even the most adoptable pets couldn't find homes and had to be euthanized.” Amazingly, “it took only 25 calls to potential models before she landed the number she needed for the July 2008-December 2009 calendar.” “When the Petals & Paws calendar debuted last May, 1,000 of the 3,000 copies were snapped up immediately. At press time the WCHS had grossed $25,500, with sales ongoing both locally and online at http://www.goldsboro-wchs.org/.”

CSI Actor Saves YouTube Video

It must have felt like TV when “CSI” actor Gerald McCullouch was recently attacked on a New York subway. “McCullouch, who plays Bobby Dawson on the hit CBS show, had just gotten off a plane from Los Angeles and was riding the A train when a man allegedly attacked him with a knife.” For most celebrities this is enough to give up any valuable– not McCullouch. The actor said he had been editing a clip for YouTube for hours, so when the attacker grabbed his laptop McCullouch didn’t let go. “I didn’t want to give up my computer after working on my video all that time,” McCullouch explained.

Better Skin: Try Night Rainew®

Every product always promises the best results. However, few products really live up to all of their claims and actually provide REAL results. “Ever since the explosion of creams that hyped themselves as better than Botox (and weren’t), skin-care companies have scrambled to rival professional treatments such as microdermabrasion and chemical peels.” Because of this, it’s hard to find something really worth trying. I could suggest a lot of products for you to try but I will only endorse one. I recently got the opportunity to try Night Rainew® by April Rain Skin Science® and it has really made a difference in my skin. I felt it working from the very first time I used it. It’s not greasy and it made my skin feel soft, smooth and ultra-hydrated when I used it. It’s even been “Reviewed and Recommended” by TruthinAging.com! My advice: don’t believe ads and phony claims. If you want a face cream that will reduce you wrinkles and fine lines try Night Rainew®.

Eat a Grapefruit

Many foods get the reputation for being “healthy foods.” However, few can measure up to sometimes forgotten grapefruit. The grapefruit is an “excellent source of vitamin C and a good source of dietary fiber, vitamin A, potassium, folate and vitamin B-5, and contains lycopene.” If that isn’t enough, “a recent 12-week study from the Scripps Clinic confirmed that adding grapefruit and its juice to your diet three times a day can increase weight loss. Its flavonoid content also helps fight against free radical damage, which results in aging.”
