Stars Without Their Makeup {AOL Video Blog}
Jan 13th 2008 3:04PM Most of the pictures of these ladies without makeup were taken in the worst possible light, while they were squinting, or appeared to be angered, so yeah, they're not at their prettiest, but you can't deny they still have the bone structure and features that make them beautiful. Most of us aren't that great looking in bad lighting, or without sleep, or while telling a photographer to get the camera out of our faces, but still, on the whole, they are beautiful to average women whom we are only really accustomed to seeing at their best, in optimum settings, completely relaxed (if only in apperance). So, cut them some slack. While you're at it, cut us "regular" women some slack too, we're all just people.
Secret WWII Nuclear City Now Open to Tourists {Gadling}
Aug 15th 2007 12:43AM It's amazing that this discussion went from Oak Ridge and the work done there to name calling and stereotyping Tennesseans. I was born in TN, educated in NJ, and golly gee, in spite of it all that I've turned out to be a fairly well rounded person. (I can wear shoes OR go barefoot) Where you're from isn't what's important, it's what you do with what you've got that matters. That, and how you treat other people. As for Oak Ridge, it may not be your idea of a fun place to visit, but for others it might be very interesting. The fact is, it's there, and now it's open, so you can choose to go, or not go. Must you judge others opinions?
The Ultimate Doggie Beauty Treatment: The Dog O2 from AirPress {Luxist}
Aug 12th 2007 1:17PM Seriously, if you have a sick dog (or cat for that matter) and it would benefit their health, and you could afford it, OK. But really, if you've got that kind of money to throw around wouldn't it be better spent to support homeless animals, provide vet care for animals who's average income owners couldn't afford their special treatment, or duh, even help humans? People with money waste it on crap when they could make a difference for humanity, even on a small level. How about $1,000 for food or vet care for a shelter instead of a status item for your home.
Autism is more common than we thought {That's Fit}
Feb 17th 2007 10:00PM I must say something on the "trendyness" of diagnosing autism. Cancer is being found and diagnosed earlier than it was 50 years ago, does that mean cancer is a "trendy" diagnosis, or does it mean the doctors have gotten better at recognizing and diagnosing it? Gee, the doctors are now recognizing and diagnosing autism, I think it's because they're getting better at it. Autistic kids (and adults) were previously diagnosed as retarded and mute, the higher functioning autistic were often considered by their peers as stranage, weird, anti-social, socially inept. Autism has been around for a long time, before mercury in the immunizations, and before the doctors had an accurate way to recognize and diagnose it. Trendy diagnosis my butt, under recognized and diagnosed previously, for sure.

Autism is more common than we thought {That's Fit}
Feb 17th 2007 9:49PM I work with autistic preschoolers. It's the MOST rewarding job I've ever had. I look forward to Mondays so I can start a new week with these wonderful children. I have seen great strides of personal and academic growth in these children. Eileen, take heart, your child does not have to miss out on everything an average child does, start witht he public school system to see what they offer and be an advocate for your son and his education. ABA, (Applied Behavioral Analysis) is a scientific method of teaching autistic. It works. Check into this for your child. Autism doesn't mean a hopeless future, a tough one maybe, but not hopeless. I have seen so many wonderful things happen, little children go from practically mute to opinionated, from climbing all over you to sitting and playing games and reading books. There is a future, believe.
The Tire Ring {Luxist}
Aug 28th 2006 11:47AM The design on the band is attractive in it's own way, it would sort of be like wearing a team jersey, saying hey, see what I like, cars, trucks, motorcycles, etc. Adorable idea, but, will it get my husband to wear a ring, no. Will it get any guy to wear a ring, eh, maybe.
