Allright. I admit that I like the song. It's kinda catchy, like chickenpox, and there is no vaccine. It's everywhere you turn, on every media outlet... your ipod, youtube, even some of the mainstream media... television, good morning armenia, today slow, etc... There's just no getting around i...

When my two girls were babies, and we were fortunate enough that they would "sleep"... we took that very opportunty to sleep as well. We were given that piece of motherly wisdom by many people who'd already gone through the process. And I have to say it was sage advice. A woman named Queenie Li...

I am fortunate enough to live in one of the most vibrant and beautiful cities in the modern world. And this video by Max Wilson shows it off to it's best. The colours are radiant, the images inspiring, and for those of us who know the buildings, locations and areas, they are breathtaking and lar...

As I was relaxing in the tub this morning, surrounded by scented candles wearing an artichoke-based exfoliating masque, the steaming water laden with fragrant rose petals... I was also watching Good Morning America ... (I know, I know... you're all jealous of my luxurious morning routine)... they...

A parent's nightmare.... to find that your child has been shot in the head and left for dead. A terrible mix of emotions to know that there are those who want your child dead, because she has been speaking out for human rights, putting herself in danger. The Daily Show Get More: Daily Show Full ...
