Carrie Prejean Goes Down. Literally!

clipper's remarks: Of course, all of this should have little effect on her career. If anything it will add fuel to it with the way Americans are infatuated with hypocrites and fallen angels. Vivid Entertainment Group, which specializes in adult films, made an offer of a million dollars to Prejean back in May to make a movie for them. Seems she might be a natural. This could only raise her value in the porn market. Practice makes perfect.

I'm curious as to how all the rightwing Prejean backers will spin this and find a way to blame this on everyone but Prejean. I might even turn on Fox News to check it out. With Prejean's looks and attitude, she may end up with her own show over there since credibility isn't a factor in Fox's hiring practices.

And for those of you who don’t remember who actually won the Miss California Pageant, her name is Tami Ferrell from Malibu. How soon we forget those with actual morals.

Former Miss California runner-up, Carrie Prejean had her day in court yesterday, though it didn’t turn out quite the way she had hoped. The Beauty Pageant almost Queen was suing the Miss California Pageant officials for a litany of charges including public ridicule, anxiety, depression and loss of sleep stemming from the official’s handling of her career.

Everything was going fine until the defendants started playing an extremely graphic homemade sex tape starring none other than Miss Prejean, herself.

It’s been reported that it only took about fifteen seconds of playing the tape before Prejean decided to drop her lawsuit. If all litigation could only end so quickly.

How fast and far can one star fall.

Naturally there was a book deal for Prejean announced in July with a launch date slated for mid-November. The title, “Still Standing: The Untold Story of My Fight Against Gossip, Hate, and Political Attacks” may need a little work. I’ll leave it to you to come up with a new title.

clipper's remarks: Playa Del Carmen is undoubtedly a good place to enjoy vacation with your family and friends. The natural beauty and breath-taking places are sure to capture the attention and make your trip more enjoyable and exciting. The luxurious accommodation, that is a villa, condominiums or a condo are another chief attractions for tourist visiting in huge numbers to Mexico.

However, choosing a condo in Playa Del Carmen as lodging can help you in saving huge bucks. It will also enable you to enjoy to your fullest. For all those planning a vacation with whole family must move cautiously in terms of money and think about ways to save money even on a vacation. Staying in a condo rental in Playa Del Carmen overshadows the idea of hiring a hotel room in Mexico. The luxurious facilities which condos are equipped with are hard to find in hotels. The kitchens in Luxury Condos Playa del Carmen are well-equipped that can allow you to prepare meals at any given point of the day. This way you can save huge expenses of meals in a restaurant. Besides this, when hired a condominium, you can enjoy the spacious accommodation with total privacy and feel of a home.

DIY soap – cleaning up your act

Wed, 04 Nov 2009 14:28:49 GMT

clipped by: disenchantedcitizen
clipper's remarks: Half way recipes (in which you take a pure form of soap and spruce it up) can be easy to do at home. You can use Castille soap to make several varieties of body wash. Here is one recipe:
Vanilla Almond Soap

1/3 cup whole almonds
1 4-ounce bar Castille soap
1/4 cup distilled water
1 tablespoon almond oil
1/8 teaspoon vanilla essential oil

Grind the almonds in a food processor or coffee grinder. Using a cheese grater or a knife, shred the bar of Castille soap. Boil the water and add the shredded soap, stirring until you get a nice gooey texture. Reduce to a simmer and then add in the almond grinds, oil and vanilla. You can spoon the soap into molds (ice cubes can make little gift soaps) and let it sit for around five hours until it hardens.

The body wash and shampoo aisle is overwhelming. There are literally thousands of different soaps and shampoos “specially formulated” for your hair by people who have never seen your hair. Here are a few things to watch out for when buying soaps:

soap companies can put “natural” on just about anything

“fragrance” means a conglomeration of chemicals

avoid anything that has palm oil, as it is extremely unsustainably harvested

A great resource when purchasing health & beauty products is the good guide.

You can also look for local soap producers, and see if you can support their business and get clean, chemical free soap

Make sure to recycle old soap as well. If you have little nubs of bar soap you can use them for tailor’s chalk (dry soap makes little white marks on fabric), bubble baths, or save them and form a new bar with the leftovers.

“Pamela and I never forget that each prospective patient who comes to us seeking improvement in her or his appearance is a unique human individual. Before we can offer to perform any cosmetic or reconstructive procedure for that person, we must work to know her or him-not only every nuance of medical history and physiological profile, but also that person’s family and social history, mindset, desires and expectations. That is what we mean when we speak of holistic medical care. We are not here to fulfill Hollywood fantasies. Our mission is to help each person to achieve her or his realistic aesthetic ideal-a potential beauty that nature may have denied or time may have compromised.”

clipper's remarks: In Seattle, Botox injections offer a youthful, more relaxed look and help you refine and restore your natural beauty. However there are risks of not getting them done from qualified surgeons. The article here outlines the risks behind dermal fillers and the precautions one should take before opting for them.

Dermal Fillers Addiction - How Deadly is It?

By A Aaronson

The effects of dermal fillers like Botox are not permanent, which means users of this substance must get a new treatment after about four months. Since patients get so used to not having wrinkles, they want to keep up the effect, which can often lead to what seems like an addiction. If you have the money for constant maintenance and the knowledge of the risks involved, obtaining several treatments is up to you.

New black Barbies get mixed reviews

Grace, Kara and Trichelle were created to fill a void for young black girls who for so long have been playing with dolls that don't look like them.

The new black Barbies released by Mattel have fuller lips, curlier hair and other features that the company says more accurately represent African-American women.

Stacy McBride-Irby, creator of the new Barbie, poses with the dolls.

Clip Source: www.cnn.com

Some have cheered the new dolls. Others jeered them, saying they're not black enough.

"I love the black Barbie. It's about time," Jua Simpson said on CNN's iReport, a user-generated news community. "But the hair is still a step backwards, since most of our hair is not straight and light brown."

Others disagree with critics who say the dolls should have had more natural black hairstyles, such as afros or braids.

"Historically, the Afrocentric features have not been celebrated,"

"This makes us question the integrity of our beauty standard for ourselves."

Forget bathroom cabinets full of expensive lotions and potions, I'm leading a natural revolution.

For while your pots of Lancome and Creme de la Mer may promise to turn back the years and banish wrinkles, scientific studies have shown that they're full of potent chemicals that can damage your health.

In fact, everything you need to keep you looking young and beautiful can be found in your kitchen cupboard.

It was the height of luxury and promised to solve all my beauty problems. But then, just over ten years ago, in my late 20s, I discovered that I had fibroids - benign tumours that grow in the wall of the uterus.
