Flipping Out Client Massage

Source: TVgasm Added: 5 hours ago

Throughout the series, the thumbnail sketch of Jeff Lewis has been, great with design, terrible with people.  This is one of those weeks that present nothing but people-management obstacles, so we’ll see how much better he’s gotten at it. PART ONE We open up the week at Valley Oak. Things are hectic, Jeff’s trying to get out the door to a job, and Sarah is slowing him down…not so much because she’s doing anything wrong, just because Jeff has an abnormally fast brain. Here’s where they're headed.  It’s called Knoll Dr.: This visual is the best Bravo could do It’s another project that came to him via the new website, but it’s piqued Jeff’s interest for a variety of reasons.  First, it’s a fixer, which means they’re basically redoing the entire thing.  This isn’t just “Come over and manage my the floor installing.”  Jeff gets to flex the muscles. You will probably get sick if you stay in this room for too long. But it’s even more enticing to him than that.  The owner, Jeru, won’t be micromanaging because he works long hours, and he seems like a nice guy on top of that.  Oh, and it’s about seven minutes from Valley Oak.  So for all these reasons, the project is almost like one of Jeff’s old solo flips. Jeff and Jeru have already had a consult to go over all their ideas, and they’ve come up with a general vision of what they want to do.  Today’s task is to explain all these ideas to their contractor, Kash, so he can come up with an estimate for them. When Jeru first meet’s Kash, he wryly remarks, “Ha.  Perfect name for a contractor.”  If this were a fiction show, this would be called foreshadowing! After this, Jeff’s on to a flurry of other projects all over LA, with a McDonald’s stop in there. He doesn’t look too worse for wear. Then it’s back to Valley Oak.  Today they are trying a new experiment with their day-to-day dynamic.  The house assistant, Jett, is going to start bringing his infant son Mason to work with him. I liked the way Jeff explained what was going on.  First he makes an ambiguous comment about why Jett has to do this, saying Jett’s having a “childcare issue [pregnant pause].”  I assume it’s nothing out of the ordinary and Jeff’s just making it seem that way? Then he phrases things oddly.  He says: “So I decided to try out him bringing Mason to work.”  Not something like “I offered to let him bring Mason to work”…it’s like Jett wasn’t even involved in the decision.  Weird. And of course they didn’t really work out a system for how to deal with Mason beforehand, which leads to a minor dispute about who’s going to look after him.  Zoila insists she isn’t a nanny on top of being a housekeeper, but Jeff tells her she can just multitask.  Take the baby with her into any of the rooms she’s cleaning.  And when she focuses on Mason instead of the chores, Jeff gets after her. So Zoila starts teaching Mason useful phrases in Spanish, like “Tell Jeff he’s crazy.” Later Jeff and Sarah are on the way to Casa Vega.  A couple week ago they refused the free lunch for the first time because they were worried about being freeloaders.  But today Jeff has decided enough time has passed to allow them to chow down again.  Problem is Christy stopped offering lunches after their refusal, so they have to figure out how to maneuver her into offering again. The best they come up with is, if Christy doesn’t offer, they’ll start walking back to the car, Sarah will say, “Oh, weren’t we going to stop for lunch?”  Then Jeff will say, “Oh, yeah!  Do you want to eat here?  Christy, do you mind if we stay for lunch?” It’s a good thing Jeff didn’t go into acting, or investigating crimes, or espionage, or the law, or any other profession that’s based on maneuvering people. But really, I’d be doing the same strategizing if I were in his place.  People shouldn’t offer free things. Right now at Casa Vega, Jeff is working on the lobby remodel.  The entire project hinges on this section.  If he can do this right, they will let him continue on the interior and the exterior remodels.  Jeff is on the doorstep, figuratively AND literally. (Ooooooooh yeeeeeahhhhh!) The trickiest part of the operation is that Christy has imposed a deadline of Cinco de Mayo, so that Casa Vega can attract holiday crowds.  Jeff is anxious about meeting the deadline; more on this later. That’s the last order of business for today, though, so Christy gets up to walk them out.  Now is the time to execute the plan to get the free lunch, but Jeff and Sarah both freeze up.  They just stand there uncomfortably for a good five seconds until Christy finally asks them if they’re hungry. Mission accomplished Back to Valley Oak for a short vignett-ey scene before the break.  Mason is baby-talking and when Sarah goes back to find him chewing on a shoe.  It is a cute baby moment. But I am a man and thus invulnerable to such things. PART TWO At Valley Oak Jett arrives for a work day and Jeff goes out to help him unload Mason and all of Mason’s stuff.  Jeff offers to hold Mason for a moment and Mason cries in that way babies do when they’re with someone unfamiliar.  Any time a baby is added to the mix on Flipping Out it brings up Jeff’s long-simmering desire to have children of his own.  Jeff says jokingly in a talking-head that he thinks Jeff would be in for a rude awakening. Over at Knoll Dr., they’re starting the best part of any renovation project: demo day… It’s Jeff’s favorite part of the entire process, and I couldn’t agree with him more.  Put it on your bucket list! Already the demo has uncovered some unexpected water damage in the floor frame that will have to be replaced. Back at Valley Oak Jeff calls Jeru up to tell him the demo has started.  But here’s a twist: Jeru and Jeff haven’t actually finalized the price.  They also talk about whether to replace the windows, because Jeff doesn’t think they can fit it into Jeru’s budget.  So clearly things are tight. Uh-oh. Jeff then heads over to Arte de Mexico—it’s that Mexican-themed furniture and accessory shop that’s making the custom door for Casa Vega.  Jeff is there to drop off a deposit check with the owner, David.  David is quite the character.  Not only does he blatantly try to upsell, he’s also incredibly smarmy, dropping all sorts of canned lines like, “I’m the copilot on YOUR journey.  I’m on YOUR team.” “Always be closing!  Greed is good!  I’m the New England man!  I’m vital in New England!  I…I don’t know who I am any more…” David also tries to get Jeff to accompany him over to the factory where they’re fabricating the door because it’s apparently visually cool, but Jeff says he doesn’t care how they make it as long as it’s done right.  David then says, “I’m working for your smile,” and winks. (But it’s more of a leer). Wrooooooong person to try that on, David And even though Jeff is visibly uncomfortable, David even asks if Jeff needs anything for Valley Oak. Has anyone ever been roofied for a business transaction?  If not, this’ll be the first time. Back at Valley Oak Jeff has Mason on his lap while he’s getting some work done.  Having Mason around gives has given him a chance to reflect on fatherhood again.  He’s always felt that there’s a “right time” to have kids, despite his friends saying otherwise, but now he’s beginning to feel there is no right time.  He’s starting to get over the anxieties. Over at Knoll Dr. Jeff, Jeru, and Jenni finally meet to discuss the budget. The combination of Bluetooth and sunglasses indoors increases douchiness exponentially, not linearly.  Common misconception. When Jeff gives Jeru the numbers, Jeru’s face immediately falls, and the air gets sucked out of the room.  Jeff tries to reassure him, but Jeru is clearly upset, and probably thinks he was misled. In a talking-head Jeff claims he gave an honest estimate…I know we’re getting all this from Jeff’s angle, but I do buy that.  To me this seems like Jeru wanted a “Jeff Lewis house,” but he figured he could do it on the cheap. This shan’t end well, I imagine. PART THREE Now it’s over to the Royal Woods remodeling consult.  There’s a wonderful callback to a couple episodes ago—Sarah is wearing the shame suit for taking Jeff’s credit card home again, but they don’t even need to explain this to us…she just shows up on the site, wearing it. Jeff is there to oversee the delivery of the hardwood flooring materials.  It’s purely for the sake of professionalism—he doesn’t really need to be there, but he doesn’t want the homeowner Tracey to feel like she had a truckload of wood dumped on her without any help. Sarah—without being prompted!—gets some flooring out of a box so they all can see how it will look in the house.  Tracey is impressed. I’m revising my earlier thought that Sarah is a terrible assistant…they were juking that episode to make it seem that way, and I bought into it.  She’s merely an average assistant. Jeff is excited overall about this project, and you really get to see what makes him tick here—he’s visualized the entire project already.  He just knows how it’s going to go.  It’s one of those moments when you realize exactly how he was able to build the business he has. Finally, Jeff asks to hold Tracey’s baby daughter, who’s even younger than Mason is.  It’s a fun little moment, because he did ask to hold her, but he’s also anxious about the entire prospect of holding a baby.  It’s kind of the same warring-impulses idea as, like, feeling guilty about masturbating but still doing it.  He’s also not so anxious that he fails to notice the kid’s unibrow. (Which he keeps to himself). After that we get a shit-ton of quick-cuts around Jeff’s smaller projects, and then end up back at Valley Oak.  Jeff tries to get in touch with Jeru about an updated budget, but Jeru is clearly dodging his calls.  Not good. More demo is going on, this time at Casa Vega. [ Bye bye 50 years of history But they’re running into a productivity snag.  Kash, the contractor, reminds Jeff that they can only work three hours a day, because Christy wants to keep the restaurant open for lunch.  But if she also wants them done with the lobby by Cinco de Mayo, it’s an unrealistic goal if the contractors are working at this pace. Jeff does his best to placate both sides, but there’s not much he can materially do beyond remind Kash that everyone’s really anxious for them to be done. Another Valley Oak moment next.  Jeff’s finding inefficiencies in Zoila’s work, for the umpteenth time...specifically Monkey needs some outside time, but she’s eating her lunch inside, and she could be killing two birds with one stone.  But Zoila totally won’t take any shit.  She keeps asking him if he has anything better to do…it’s awesome. And another call to Jeru goes unanswered—now his voicemail is full.  Clearly something is up…either they’re not clicking personally or the budget is too high.  Jeff wants Jenni to keep at it until they get an answer, and she should be aggressive about it if she has to.  Jeru’s being rude, but it’s also inconveniencing Jeff because he’s schedules his crews for the next step. PART FOUR Ready for this week’s bizarre Act Four slice o’ Valley Oak life?  This time…drumroll…everyone is asleep!  Zoila, Mason, the cats…everybody! God, that’s another awkward shooting assignment, “Go in Jeff’s bedroom and get some closeups of Zoila sleeping.  Try to shoot from the foot of the bed this time.  Get like ten minutes of tape on it.  She probably won't wake up.” PART FIVE Here’s another Zoila-Jett scene at Valley Oak…Zoila notices Jett feeding Mason and thinks he’s doing it incorrectly… Mason is always staring at the camera.  No camera presence at all. Apparently bottle-feeding him that way could make the baby choke, or make the milk go in his ear?  Or something.  I have no idea.  She tells Jett to put a pillow under Mason’s head, and he does, but doesn’t see the point. Then Jeff, Christy, and Sarah head back to Arte de Mexico to approve the custom door.  Problem is, the mock-up for the handle indicates the handle would be awkwardly high for most people.  So it looks like a disaster, because David and co. might have to remake the whole damn door, but then Jeff realizes they just have the door upside down. They flip the door right-side up, but Jeff and the gals are not impressed.  Jeff Lewis would not make an oversight like that. By the way, is it me or does it seem that people who are like David but can also back it up with results are the ones who wind up President of the United States? And honestly, if you’re gonna act like David, at least back it up. Man…which phrase should I use to smooth things over?  “I’m the…IT guy on your dreamscape?”  The message here: focus on your job.  And of course immediately after they approve the door David tries to hustle them again. Later in the car Jeff and Sarah laugh about David’s ineptitude, but it kinda felt like Bravo prompted them to talk about it and it came out forced.  Just me? Back at Valley Oak Jett takes the gang for a walk.  Nothing much to say about it, but I thought you’d like the visual: God I love being childless and dogless Jenni, meanwhile, finally has gotten in touch with Jeru.  A mutual friend told her Jeru has fired Jeff and gone with another company, called “Built,” and didn’t bother letting JLD know. Jenni reluctantly tells Jeff, and he’s pissed about it, more about the lack of courtesy than with the unfairness of firing him.  I do personally find the silent treatment to be pretty common in lieu of actually dismissing people, but I’m with Jeff.  It’s rude. But they’re a little hurt, so they analyze the encounter.  Jeff irritated because he gave Jeru some nice design ideas, and now Jeru’s likely going to use them with his new contractor.  But he’s also pissed because he played fair the entire time.  He made his estimates based on the high-end materials he and Jeru agreed they’d use.  He didn’t give Jeru a low number just to please him.  And the people at the other agency will probably do just that. (Again…no idea what Jeru’s thinking, so take this with a grain of salt). PART SIX This week wraps up with Jeff and Sarah in the car.  Jeff “happens” to be in Jeru’s neighborhood, so while they’re in the area, why not do a drive-by?  Sure enough, there’s the Built sign out front.  They have been betrayed.  Or, as Sarah put it, “We got clowned.” Apparently Built is a competitor now, or they just go after Jeff’s sloppy seconds.  Jeff thinks of them as the ambulance chasers of the design world. But the real lesson for Jeff this week is to be more selective about clients.  Weed them out, see who’s real and who’s fake. Ugh.  That career sounds like one long apartment hunt. That’s all for this week.  Come on back for the next episode.  They’re headed to New York, apparently for a summit at the United Nations of Interior Design… From next week's preview clips it looks like they make Jeff deliver an impromptu speech.  Should be fun. See you then!  >

Kat Von D Says Jesse James is The One

Some fall in love at first sight, but for Kat Von D it took a bit longer to realize that Jesse James was "the one" for her. She arrived hand-in-hand with the newly single bachelor to her Wonderland gallery opening on Thursday in West Hollywood, CA. She told People how they evolved into more than just friends, saying, "It was just like, 'Wow, I can't believe I haven't spent this much time with you the entire time I've known you.' Now I'm just embracing it and enjoying it." Kat sees a future with Jesse, sharing, "I believe he is" [my] soul mate. "Jesse is only my ninth boyfriend. I don't hang out with anybody unless I am in love." They have found common ground in playing games like Scrabble and relishing in one another's "nerdy" sides. The motorcycle guru was a bit more coy about their romance, simply replying, "yes" he's happy and he likes "everything" about Kat. In the aftermath of a cheating scandal, Jesse and Sandra Bullock's divorce was finalized in June.[Read full story on The Insider]

Sarah Palin Vanity Fair Interviewer The Worst Stuff Isn t Even in There

Source: The Hollywood Gossip Added: 8 hours ago

The author of a blistering Vanity Fair article on Sarah Palin says his attempt at a positive piece went so awry, he couldn't even include all the bad stuff he found out. "The worst stuff isn't even in there," Michael Joseph Gross said on MSNBC. "I couldn't believe these stories either when I first heard them, and I started this story with a prejudice in her favor. I have a lot in common with this woman." Sarah Palin is portrayed unflatteringly in Vanity Fair this month. "I'm a small-town person, I'm a Christian, I think that a lot of her criticisms of the media actually have something to them. And I think she got a bum ride." "But, everybody close to her tells the same story." You can read the Vanity Fair article yourself and draw your own conclusions, but he paints Palin as an abusive, combative figure with an extreme ability to lie. "This is a person for whom there is no topic too small to lie about," he said of the ex-Alaska Governor and mother of Bristol Palin. "She lies about everything." Meghan McCain has nothing on this. As for Palin's political future? "If we decide to let her keep lying and getting away with it, she's gonna still be around," he said. "But if we start returning to the standard that a politician has to talk with people, and a politician has to tell the truth, then she's outta here." "Because she can't stand up to that." Gross takes exception to criticisms that he wrote a "hit piece" against Sarah Palin, saying "I started this with every good intention. I was just shocked and appalled at every step at what I found. I wrote this story sort of against my will." "It wasn't what I wanted to write," he adds, noting that the facts do the talking. "It wasn't what I wanted to find. It was what was forced on me by the facts." Do you like Sarah Palin?

Teen Mom Trial and Error

Source: TVgasm Added: 1 day ago

It's been 2 weeks since we've seen our favorite teen moms in action and this weeks episode "Trial and Error" finds the whole gang trying to get their lives in order. Farrah Farrah is recovering from the "not at all planned by MTV" scam that left her nearly $3,000 in the hole.  She somehow lost her free babysitter because the state thinks she makes too much money and she must relay on her friend, Ali, to watch Sophia while she picks up more hours at work.  I must say that I am beginning to think that Farrah may be the smart one among her friends.  Ali refers to Sophia's soaked diaper as "wetable".  What the fuck? Then she goes on to suggest that Farrah try speed dating. Honestly, it would be more productive if she just tried speed. Think of the shit she'd get done.  Anyways, so Ali brings up speed dating (again, I am totally sure MTV had nothing to do with this) and Farrah is hesitant. FINALLY, Farrah is demonstrating some common fucking sense. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against speed dating.  I think it's a great way for  lame pathetic people to meet each other.  Even Farrah gets that, stating "Sounds like I am going to meet a lot of losers in a fast amount of time.” Maybe her oxygen supply wasn't entirely cutoff in the womb.  But, Ali insists she give it shot because you never know, she may just find someone like her (Yikes! Sophia would be dead in a week if that happened) and , really, what else is she going to contribute to this episode if she doesn't do it? So Ali watches Sophia while Farrah heads to TGIFriday's or  whatever shit hole that hosts these  freaks. She first meets Sean who asks her if anyone in her family is a downer? What the fuck can a question is that? Then she meets Derek who talks about his cats, totally they type of guy that owns several outfits made out of human flesh. And then there's Zack.  He's a total knob, talking about his cage fighting and doucey tattoo.  I am pretty sure Farrah mentions her daughter just to get him to shut the fuck up. Needless to say the experience was a complete waste of Farrah' s time.  She could have spent that hour inadvertently sticking Sophia's hand in a blender.  Farrah may not have intelligence, a proper education,  or parenting skills but she does have enough sense to not try speed dating again. Hey Farrah, I hear craigslist has personal ads... Maci Maci and Kyle are heating up, they just have so much in common.  They both love motocross, they live in the same state, and require oxygen to live. One big happy Aryan family They've been together for a few months and Maci and Bentley are spending a lot of time in Nashville.  Kyle suggests they stop making the 2 hour drive from Chattanooga and move to Nashville! I have to note that there's been an increasing need for subtitles in order to decipher what Kyle is saying.  And I'm beginning to wonder if he has upper teeth.  Anyways, Maci explains to Ky that if she's to move up there she's going to need his help.   She knows that living together is the only way they'll ever really have a chance, but she's not yet ready to tell her parents or Ryan about the potential move. She meets with her adviser in his weird basement rec room office, complete with Mr. Peanut memorabilia, mini fridge, and microwave. She wants to know about the potential of her transferring to a school closer to Nashville. He says it shouldn't be a problem since she did "so good" in high school. But is it the right thing for Bentley? She decides to visit a daycare in Nashville.  While there, Bentley calls Kyle "dada". Kyle asks like he didn't hear it, but he looks freaked the fuck out. It's looking more and more like the move is going to happen. Maci decides to tell her friends back home about her potential plans. Her friend Ashton is visibly shocked and concerned. Maci defends herself, "Just because you all don’t have boyfriends it doesn’t mean you have to get on me for having one" ZING! Maci knows she can transfer, she's found a daycare, and now she just needs to make sure that Kyle is on the same page. She asks him, yet again, how serious he feels they are.  He responds, "Pretty a lot". He seriously said that. I couldn't make this shit up if I tried. Anyways, that being said, it looks like Maci is heading to Nashville. Now she just needs to tell her parents and Ryan.  I have a feeling that they are all going to be pretty a lot pissed. Amber It's time, time for Amber to push herself like never before.  She probably already has the HIV, but can she get the GED? Amber really has her heart set on earning a high school diploma. She could do the course week from home, but the materials cost $355. She shares this information with Gary who is extremely in favor of the GED which is only $60, that's a savings of $295 or, in Gary currency, 295 Hostess fruit pies.   However, Amber fears that Gary will forever hold his high school diploma over her head. Forever? Who are we kidding here? Gary's bound to have a coronary by the age of 25.  But, Amber is also worried that Leah will wonder why her mommy doesn't have a high school diploma.  Uhhh...I think she'll figure it out. Hello? Is this Child Protective Services? To help her better understand her options, Amber meets up with Diane, our favorite counselor from last season.  I really hate to beat a dead horse, but I'm noticing a theme: Anyways, Diane seems a little less uncomfortable dealing with Amber this season. Man, it was so awkward last season when Amber broke down in Diane's office.  Diane looked like she wanted to console Amber, but feared, if she touched her, she'd get AIDS.  Diane really pushed the GED on Amber and convinces her that it's better for her family. So Amber decides that she's going to take the next GED test being offered. She decides to tell Gary at some poor man's Chuck E. Cheese and expresses her fears about taking on something so demanding.  She can't possibly work and learn the alphabet at the same time which means Gary will need to find a job. Are you fucking kidding me? This asshole still doesn't have a job? I know the economy is bad, but when you are only qualified to do menial work it shouldn't be that hard to find a toilet that needs scrubbing somewhere.  I'm beginning to sympathize with Amber's frustration with Gary.  He does say that he is proud of her and that he will take her to dinner if she passes.  Talk about an incentive. Amber hits the books instead of Gary for a change It's the night before the big test and Amber is struggling.  Upon seeing Amber worried, Gary so lovingly states,  "I want to marry a woman on the her game."  Quite the insult coming from someone with a BMI has high as Gary's. Naturally, they argue. Test day arrives and Amber is clearly not on her game. She breaks down during the exam and  fails every section.  She expresses her frustrations to Gary (who's just glad that doesn't have to pay for a dinner) asking if there are vitamins that will "help her brain chemically remember".  Man, I really can't believe she didn't pass. She should have skipped the GED and went straight for the MCATs. Gary offers this suggestion, "Listen to Mozart while you do your homework. It will make you 15% smarter. It’s proven." Amber wonders where she can find this "Mozart" and how much smarter it will make her if she blows him. Catelynn Catelynn and Tyler are finally back on track.  Things have been relatively drama free with Butch,  Tyler's dad and Catelynn's step dad (I know, seriously fucked up), out of jail.   April is less of a bitch with Butch around. You know you are in a bad place when the person that keeps you  grounded has a mullet as severe as Butch's.  They lovingly embrace while Nick, April's son with god knows who, very disturbingly mimics them. Somebody get the Kilz Butch tries to play dad with Tyler and asks about his relationship with Catelynn. Tyler explains that she lied. To this, Butch shares his modus operondi, "“the least I know the less I have to understand". Enough said. He then goes all to tell Tyler that if he ever needs to talk that he's here for him. By "here" he means locked up or coked out. Tyler, of course, isn't buying it. Tyler and Catelynn head over to Tyler's mom house and we are, for the first time,  introduced to Tyler's sister, Amber. Who knew? Butch arrives to share an announcement.  The state of Michigan wants to him go to rehab. Once again, he's leaving. Afterwards, Tyler and Catelynn have a mature conversation. Tyler equates his father to a child and Catelynn is glad they got Carly away from all this trashy shit (my words, not Catelynn's). April is very torn up about having to live without Butch for however many weeks. It really is too bad that she can't go with him, no, REALLY. What sane woman wouldn't miss this? April lashes out on Catelynn, telling her she does nothing around the house to help and even resorts to throwing the adoption back in her  face. Catelynn calls Tyler to come get her. Kim, Tyler, and Catelynn discuss the fight in Kim's backyard. Kim must have read my last recap because her yard is considerably cleaner . Catelynn vents and they listen. She wants a good relationship with her mom, but doesn't know what to do. Catelynn, have you considered dressing up like a bottle of Jack? Catelynn returns home to make thing better with her mom.  April is still pissed and calls Catelynn lazy.  Catelynn cleans up around the house and  April comes around. April rewards Catelynn with an evening of pizza, “classic” Sunday night cartoons, and second hand smoke. >

MAD MEN RECAP And The Award Goes To 8230

Source: Vh1 Best Week Ever Added: 3 day ago

This is a recap for the sixth episode of Season 4 of Mad Men starring Jon Hamm, Christina Hendricks, John Slattery, January Jones, and a slew of other talented actors, on an episode called “Waldorf Stories.” And here is your For Your Consideration Recap: THE CURE FOR THE COMMON WASP This dude that Roger sends into Don’s office for an interview is basically Jon Lovitz in J. Crew critter pants. Could a human being make a worse impression in a job interview? No. Forgetting the fact that he is only an inch taller than SCDP’s brand new (spoiler) CLEO Award, he just doesn’t seem to be a good fit in the world of the dapper advertising scene. Hell, even Miss Blankenship hates the guy. MOST LIKELY TO GET KNOCKED DOWN A PEGGY You’ll notice a running theme in this episode… Don being a supreme Dick to Peggy. First, she’s not invited to the CLEO Awards to celebrate a campaign she helped brainstorm. Then, he orders her to spend the weekend with her new art director, Stan, instructing them to get a room together at the Waldorf-Astoria in order for them to come up with idea for Vick Chemical Corp. This is all well and good, until you realize that Stan… IS ACTUALLY BIFF FROM BACK TO THE FUTURE SHE’S RIGHT ON TOP OF THAT ROSE! Speaking of 80s movies, remember when this secretary bumped into Sue Ellen Crandell by the fax machine and then saved her ass by fixing up the Q.E.D. report? We love this lady! Let us hope she never told Mom that the babysitter was dead. THE BABYSITTER, IN THIS SCENARIO, IS MISS BLANKENSHIP MOST UNCONVINCING FLASHBACK SEQUENCE This episode hopped around the timeline a bit, which would have been slightly less confusing if they would have actually tried to make Don and Roger look, let’s say, 10 years younger. Because while we don’t hate the eyeliner Roger has on, we also don’t buy that it’s a look he’d really go for. But what they can’t accomplish with makeup they can make up with in ACTING! And so Don became the most pathetic son of a bitch alive, while Roger perfected his Joan impression… HE FEELS PRETTY AND WITTY AND GAY And he pities, any girl who isn’t him today. IS THAT BETTY DRAPER IN THE HELLER’S AD? This is a legitimate question. It sure looks like her, and it would make sense that they’d use her for budget reasons… but it could also be any other wooden 44 in a blond wig, so we’re torn. MOST CONVINCING SAMANTHA JONES ON SEX AND THE CITY “Half a fur? Why that only deserves half an orgasm!” AND SO WE FIND OURSELVES AT THE CLEO AWARDS… IN THE PRESENCE OF THE MOST GLORIOUS TOP HAT… Put this woman face right up there next to Cooper on our new website SceneStealers.org. HAMMIN’ IT UP! Never accuse Jon Hamm of not ~acting.~ Look at that face right there. ACTING. WELL F*CK A DUCK! HE’S BACK Yessss! It’s our favorite Mad Men cast-off (after Sal) and favorite man who has ever slept with Peggy, Duck!! And he is shwassstiezzzz. He’s the Michael Scott in the 1960s ad world, this guy. OBLIGATORY Chauncey, we still miss you every waking day. SWEETEST HAND HOLD Aww, Roger and Joan are holding hands. WHAT DA HALE? I know she ain’t holdin’ hands with Don, too… HAVE I JUST WOKEN UP FROM A PLOT POINT COMA? Now Don is making out with Joan? Have I missed something? Also, while we’re on the subject of Joan.. POOR PEGGY. While she’s back at the office, Don, Pete, Roger and Joan get to go celebrate the award that she basically won them. Why was Joan there, anyway? OH RIGHT It’s because of her huge…. ….. ….. …. hands. MEANWHILE, BACK AT WORK… This is seriously my dream: Being whiskey’d and dined by Lane Pryce. I adore his British awkwardness and would make do with his pock marks. OH LOOK! DON IS BACK WITH HIS NEW LIFE CEREAL CONCEPT! YOU DON’T LIKE THAT? WELL HOW ABOUT THIS?? p.s. I would actually eat this cereal. HMM, LOOKS FAMILIAR “Uh, Don, pretty sure that insanely sh*tty slogan was given to you by fake Jon Lovitz earlier in the episode.” — What I Heard BLANKENSHIP GIF OF THE DAY I dare any hardcore rapper out there to look more street than Miss Blankenship in the above GIF. Take my advice and don’t take the dare, because it’s impossible. The woman’s a pimp. THE PROOF IS IN HER STOP SNITCHING NECKLACE MODERN LADIES, HUG YOUR BRAS I’m not sure if I’m looking at a bra or two banana nut muffins hung off the ends of shoelaces. STAN, THE MAN WITH THE LONGEST BALLS IN THE LAND Sorry, Cisco Adler, but your title has been revoked. (NSFW Clearly) IS HIS ASS LONG TOO OR IS IT JUST THE BRIEFS? I love a man with a long ass crack, but this is ridiculous. Is his underwear the missing link between a one-piece bathing suit and modern day men’s briefs? I’ve never seen anything as disturbing. Oh, wait, JK. (NSFW & Fool me once.) MOST SUBTLE BONER TRUCE DON IS REALLY LIVING IT UP AT THE CLEO’S WHILE ROGER IS SHOOTING JEALOUS MICROWAVE BEAMS OUT OF HIS EYE SOCKETS The above photo courtesy of the fine people who made Avatar.* (*lies) MOST FAMILIAR LOOKING TIE THAAAAAT’S WHERE I’VE SEEN IT Hanging from the window of Von Trapp family only moments before they were turned into “playclothes” and “Don’s tie.” AWARD I WOULD MOST LIKE TO WIN MOST INAPPROPRIATE TIME TO START HUMMING THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER Right before performing America’s favorite past time: Blow jobs. Uncle Sam just pulled up a seat next to Sally Draper and started weeping. WORST BEER GOGGLE REVEAL Doris, the waitress. EVEN JANUARY JONES WORKED UP THE ENERGY TO MAKE A FACE ABOUT IT AND WHO IS TO BLAME FOR DON’S PAINFUL, FORGETFUL, BANGING LOCAL WAITRESSES AND FORGETTING TO PICK THE KIDS UP DOWNFALL? As always… Canada. PETE WAS PRETTY SURE HE COULD EXCHANGE A BJ FOR A NEW JOB AT STERLING COOPER UNTIL HE REMEMBERED HE WAS OFFERING THE JOB TO COSGROVE Give the guy some Canada, maybe he’ll change his mind. LET’S GET A CLOSE-UP OF THAT CLEO AWARD AND SO, ANOTHER ELEVATOR DOOR CLOSES, AND ANOTHER EPISODE ENDS BIGGEST LOST OPPORTUNITY Not incorporating the “Coming to America” music at any point in the episode. You say Waldorf-Astoria, I say “My son works?!?” — King Jaffe Joffer What did you guys think of the episode? Disagree with any of my above assessments?

Tori Spelling Shares Her Relationship Success Secret

Source: im not obsessed Added: 3 day ago

Tori Spelling shared some relationship advice with ET. When asked what her best tip to a successful relationship, she shared: "I think communication is the key," Tori says. "I know that sounds like a boring tip, but it's so true! You forget to communicate ... I think it's very important to always make eye contact, to make physical contact .. to keep the open dialogue going." Sounds like common sense, but there are plenty of couples who lack in that area. Tori talked about what she's doing to stay busy as summer is winding down: "I love to throw parties for my kids, so I'm having all my friends over -- and all their kids over -- for an end of summer back to school party." "I know most parents are really excited when their kids go back to school, but I'm really sad," I'm assuming she means that she's sad about the end of summer, because her little ones are only 2 and 3, not quite school age yet. ;) Photos by WENN

MasterChef Bastage Dresses Down 8230

Source: TVgasm Added: 4 day ago

Alright, my little food fanatics…here we go, again. It’s our second straight week of 2 hour episodes of MasterChef, and we just can’t get enough. Or can we? Well, that’s for you all to decide…Either way, FOX seems uncannily aware that they have us right where they want us. We’ve committed too much to this show to back out now, and they’re not ready for the ride to end. Seriously, this is the point in time that you expect a clip show just to fill a week. Thankfully, FOX doesn’t seem to have realized that they could pull that stunt and get away with it…yet. As always, we begin with a 2+ minute introduction that tells us what we forgot after binge-drinking our way through the previous 5 episodes. We’ve narrowed the field to 11, but…There can be only one. So, in lieu of a clip show, it seems that FOX has decided to re-air last week’s episode, just with different ingredients and settings. We start off with another WHAT’S IN THE FUCKING BOX?!?!?!? challenge. Cool, I guess. Gordie polls the remaining 11, and asks them what they’d like to be in the box. DK says he wants something seafood. I got news for ya, bro-dog…if there was seafood under that box, you’d have known it the second you walked into the MasterChef kitchen. Tracy wants eggs and flour and milk and other baking ingredients. So, “WHAT’S IN THE FUCKING BOX?!?” Baking supplies, that’s what! It’s a CUPCAKE CHALLENGE!!! Tracy is excited, and starts screaming and dancing. Ca$h Money in the bank. The judges tell them that they have the same basic ingredients in their box, and then unveil the table of deliciousness, from which the contestants can take ingredients to make their cupcakes stand out. I thought this kind of spread only existed in Imagina-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-ationland So our minis are running around gathering the food and tools needed to make the perfect cupcake, and the music is already intense since they only get 45 minutes to complete this challenge. Our judges, again, have a pretentious pow-wow just to make sure there’s no question that they know their shit better than our minis. We get interviews with our minichefs interjected intermittently, and as usual there is very little value added. However, I’m noticing that every time Sharone starts talking in his interviews, he’s grinning and laughing and “NO WAI”ing, and I’m wondering if he is taking that whole “ignorance is bliss” to a new level, or if he’s getting a quickie every commercial break. Insert your own "No WAY!", "Really?!?", or "I CAN'T BELIEVE IT" here. The judges keep wandering around checking with everyone to see what they’re doing. I think I’d be all like “GTF up out my bizness, my BIZNASS!”, but instead they just stop and talk to our judges, wasting precious time. I think our judges are just starting to fuck with people… I mean, just look what Bastage does when he thinks the cameras aren’t looking…he just dipped his finger in Whitney’s batter. What I’d give to do that… Tracy talks again about how she’s going to dominate. Foreshadowing? Our Judges reconvene and start talking about which cupcakes they’re eager to try. Teddy wants to try Sharone’s cupcake, because he’s “using a lot of nuts, and it sounds good.” That’s a lotta nuts! We fast forward to the 20 minute mark, at which point Gordie kindly points out that the cupcakes need to be in the oven. Tracy looks up like “WTF where did the time go,” and Gordie has to repeat the “cupcakes in the oven” instruction for Faruq. Lucky for everyone who is running behind, as we already know from last week, there are no eliminations at the end of this challenge. What we didn’t know, until DFV kindly pointed it out, is that the winner of this challenge will not only have the advantage of making a decision that effects the next round, but will also have a chance to jump into the final four. So that seems unfair. But this show isn’t about being fair… We hit the one-minute mark, and things aren’t looking pretty. Tracy can’t take hers out of the oven because they’re not ready, and we get a montage of “icing melting off the cupcakes” because they’re too damn hot. Everyone is scrambling around trying to get their icing to stick, with a few exceptions – namely Sharone, Whitney, and DK, who all seem to have nailed it. Tracy is proper fucked, and we’re all like LOL Tortoise and the Hare, biatch! Cockiness gets you nowhere… She’s taking a page out of Tebow’s playbook. Anyways, she starts crying, and Gordie seems a bit displeased. I don’t blame him. She’s crying over a fucking cupcake. Granted, it is a terrible looking cupcake. Ironically, Tebow seems to be smirking at her crying. Gordie asks who’s not happy with their cupcake…Tracy raises her hand, among a few others. She’s not happy because it was too warm and the frosting melted. Gordie rubs her nose in it…”presentation: 0.” Next time, don’t be cocky. Didn’t you learn anything from Slim last week? The judges have again picked based on presumptions, and the first of our three finalists is: DK! He made a delicious chocolate cupcake, which seems to have impressed the judges. He makes a little speech about how he won’t let them down, and all he asked for was an opportunity and they gave him that, and the judges are like… “Ok, the orchestra is playing the gtfo music and you’re still going on like Adrian Brody” The next finalist is Sharone. He can’t believe it. Neither can I. “How did you call my name?” Gordie explains that the secret to a good cupcake is “the excitement that draws you in at the top, and the moist inside.” It’s funny, I feel like the same logic applies here. Our third and final finalist is…Whitney!!! Well, first we get a brief interview with Cap’n Cliché, talking about how he’s sure it’s gonna be him. This concerns me for any of you on board with him, since he’s really had like no face time to this point. Beware the foreshadowing of reality TV. Our judges love Whitney’s cupcake, and I’m certain I would too. Bastage refers to it as a “smart” cupcake…which I guess is the opposite of Sharone’s cupcake. Anyways, the winner of the first challenge is: SHARONE! We’re all surprised! Surely there’s no way he’s going to just cruise into a spot in the final four, right FOX?! Sure he will…and don’t call me “Shirley.” FOX tries to add to the drama, and conducts little back-stabby interviews with the other minis. They basically seem to echo my feelings towards him, so, while scripted and unnecessary, I don’t mind these. Slim Shady respects him as a cook, but “doesn’t like the dude.” DK thinks he’s a bit of a kiss-ass. Seeing as everyone apparently doesn’t care for Sharone, you can imagine their reaction when they hear that he has a chance at a free pass. Sharone’s reaction, though… ...bliss. He practically nuts in his pants when he learns the guest chef that they were hyping for this week’s episode is Cat Cora. So Sharone’s huge advantage is that he gets to pick the dish that everyone will be making. The other part of his huge advantage is that he’s ineligible for elimination this round. Where was that bonus for my Whitney last week?!? The last bonus is that if the judges rule that he outdoes her at her own dish, he gets to advance to the final four without partaking in any more competitions. I feel like a 16-year-old school girl seeing Justin Timberlake. We get like 5 minutes of verbal handjobs for Cat Cora while she stands around trying to act like it isn’t at all awkward. Then they start showing the three dishes that Sharone can choose from…there’s an awkward attempt at synergy between Gordie and Cat, but instead of finishing each other’s sentences, they just keep cutting each other off. Sharone decides that since he isn’t going to get booted, he’s going to make everyone cook the halibut. Hali-what?!? Our minichefs have finally taken to swearing regularly instead of just on rare occasion. It’s making me feel less self-conscious, which is good. I think it’s more FOX scripting to let us know how high the heat is right now. Now everyone is introduced to Cat Cora, and they learn that one of them is getting sent home. FINALLY! There’ll at least be one elimination this episode. I was getting worried!!! Our contestants are sad to hear that there are eliminations, but super-psyched about Cat Cora. She gives some stupid speech about how great it is to be there, and it’s nice to see everyone so excited about cooking, and we’re all like “GTFO the stage!!!” Then Sharone is told that while everyone else is fighting off elimination, he’ll be cooking against Cat Cora for a chance to cruise to the final four. People don’t seem to like this, as it seems a little…how do you say…unfair. It’s not fair, I have a semi-faux-hawk, sensitive guy beard, and the same rugged good looks as Sharone, and he gets all the attention!! Marcia, Marcia, MARCIA!!!! Gordie poses a question to Sharone: “Can you beat Cat Cora??” Cat stands by and shakes her head, as if to say “I eat pieces of shit like you for breakfast.” Sharone is still too starstruck to question why she eats pieces of shit for breakfast. So first, we get a little tutorial on how to make the dish. Lee stands around and looks brooding. Cat demos this in 18 minutes. They bring in a mobile wall to block off Cat and Sharone from the rest. This way the judges have no way of knowing which dish, Sharone’s or Cat’s, they’re tasting. Everyone gets one hour to prepare the same dish that just took Cat 18 minutes… The judges confer, and Bastage says that Sharone is probably stupid enough to try to change the dish in an effort to make it better. “Cat sautéed her corn and onions in olive oil. Maybe I can do something to butter up the judges a little bit, and saute them in butter instead.” …and then maybe laugh at my own terrible pun. He then proceeds to talk about how if he uses shallots instead of onions, since they’re a little sweeter, he can sweeten up the judges too. And then maybe he can make the show even cheesier by melting cheese on top of his dish, right? For no raisin at all!!! Fuck you, Sharone!! We run around with the judges, visiting the different stations. Some people don’t seem to be doing so well…others are very confident. Tebow thinks he’s done Cat one better with his cream sauce. Bastage again feels the need to finger someone’s food. From his reaction, he prefers Cat’s cream to Tebow’s. People don’t seem to be doing so well here, either. Slim forgot to strain the sauce, and it’s separating, and we’re all like yay fuckin’ finally she’s going home!!!! Good riddance. Please? As always, we get the dramatic countdown of the last 30 seconds, which takes roughly two minutes, and is littered with interviews with everyone talking about how they’re either going to win or lose. Somehow, regardless of the fact that Cat prepared the whole dish in 18 minutes earlier, she is also scrambling to finish off her dish. And again, everyone finishes plating their dish at the exact same fucking time. The DFV tells us that since they judges haven’t been able to see Cat or Sharone for the last hour, this will truly be a blind taste test… I don’t remember being able to see little globules of butter all of Cat’s dish…this would only be a blind taste test if Ray Charles returned from the beyond… Gordon claims to not be able to tell the difference. The judges decide that one of the dishes is definitely better than the other. Gordie points at a dish, and tells him that if it’s his, he wins. Is it Sharone’s dish? Take a guess at the answer. LOL if you can’t stand the heat, GTFO of my kitchen rookie bitch!!! So, not surprisingly Sharone doesn’t win, but he’s safe. We almost forgot, but now it’s time for eliminations. First up is Slim. She totally overcooked her fish. Teddy tells her “better luck next time” in the best asshole voice he can muster, and it’s wonderful. Bastage refuses to even try it, because he doesn’t eat “garlic boiled in cream.” Slim Shady? More like Slim Shitty. Second up is Tracy. Bastage knocks her at first, but then comes back and decides that it’s actually really good. Third is David, and TG takes another moment to be an asshole, and it is glorious. “So, this is the sauce that’s better than Cat Cora’s?” “Well, I like it…I mean, Idunno.” “I thought you said it was better.” “I was hoping it was better.” “Oh, ok…maybe I misheard you...No, it’s definitely not” Mikey is fourth, and apparently he didn’t actually cook the fish all the way. NO!! Looks like there’s another person on the chopping block with Slim. DK runs up fifth, and he’s correct in his guess that he nailed it. ZOMG NO! Even Cat Cora is saying “stunning.” Is there a company out called “stunning” that is just paying advertising royalties or something? Whitney is sixth, and also does a poor job. Check out what our cameras caught while focusing on Whitney’s disappointment: If you didn’t hate Slim Shitty before now, there’s still room on the bandwagon. She’s the only person thus far to cheer someone else's misfortune… Last but not least is Faruq Vader. What the fuck?!? THREE PEOPLE were skipped!!! Lee, Sheetal, and Cap’n Cliché! Well, I guess none of them are going home. Seriously, FOX, L2TV! Faruq walks up confident. Apparently it’s not as good as FV seems to think it is. Our best dish on the day is, not surprisingly, DK. He’s been begging for fish the whole time, and nailed it. “I’m just, like, super stoked.” Sadly, most of us don’t care about the winner of this competition, since the juicy bits are in the elimination. The bottom three are: Mikey, Slim, and Faruq Vader. So we have one fish that wasn’t fully cooked, one whose sauce was technically flawed, and then Faruq Vader. “That fish died for a reason – so that you could take it, put it in a pan, and make it amazing. It’s so sad, it’s almost unforgiveable.” Faruq Vader is sent home, and it appears to be a bad day for the jedi mind trick. Faruq takes it well, but we’re all like NOOOOOOOO!!! Seriously, Faruq is the first person I’ve been sad to see go, because he’s the first person who actually seemed to truly appreciate everything. Anyways, we’re at the point where we realize there are an even number of people, and we all know what that means. TEAM CHALLENGE, Y’ALL!!! Today’s challenge is cooking at a truck stop in the middle of fucking nowhere, probably right down the road from where movies like The Hills were filmed. They’re cooking burgers at some seemingly abandoned truck stop in the California desert. As would be expected after the spectacle last week, Gordie & Co make a “fitting” entrance…by riding in the cab of a semi. Bastage tries to fit in by wearing a designer shirt and a belt buckle. I hope he put some sunscreen on his head, at least. Teddy tells everyone that they’ve probably had a hundred burgers in their lifetime…which is a horrible understatement for most Americans, who I’m sure eat at least 10-20 a year. He then tells them he probably had 50 burgers himself last week, and we all LOL. Then Gordie rubs his belly for luck, and it’s awkward for all of us. DK gets to pick teams, and they shake out like this: Blue team: DK, Tracey, Whitney, Lee, and Cap’n Cliché. Red team: Sharone, Sheetal, Slim, David, and Mikey. I’m not sure about the rest of you, but I lol’d pretty hard at the red team’s lineup. DK’s dream team vs a team with a Korean guy, a Vietnamese girl, and an Indian girl. This should be a freebie for DK& co. Lolz red team… The blue team goes with an all beef burger with onion, tomato, and topped with slaw. The red team also goes with an all beef burger, but mixes some bleu cheese into the patties, tops it with bacon and sautéed onion and bbq sauce. The blue team gets cocky as shit, and we get cocky with them, regardless of our knowledge of what goes wrong with that. The red team’s burgers are falling apart on the grill…and they scrap the bleu cheese patties and start over. The red team is running around with their heads cut off, and the trucker’s show up before they have even one burger to serve!!!! There’s more censored swearing!!! We’re like “What the f—k” Now, in my mind, the fact that the red team isn’t ready should mean they lose outright. I mean, seriously, the Blue team has served like 20 burgers and the Red team has served zero. FOX disagrees with my method of determining winners, though, as this is “reality” TV and not reality TV. Regardless of the delays, the truckers still cast their votes. It gets all super dramatic, as early on we’re neck and neck!! It’s 17-17…close race, what a shocker… We’re all watching this and assuming that this is going to end 51-49…but then Sharone comes up with a game-changer. Prior to toasting the buns on the grill, they start soaking them in bacon grease. ZOMG H4X!!! Seriously, this is practically cheating. Everyone starts hooting and hollering, and the truckers all come over to provide more verbal handjobs, and we now look to the Blue team to see what adjustment they make to re-even the table. If bacon buns are ignorant, I don’t want to be right!! Or something... Remember that thing about cockiness from earlier? Here it is again…and team Blue decides to stick with what’s not working, because if it’s broke, why fix it? Or it goes something like that, right?... Gordie takes pity and brings a Red team burger over to the Blue side, and lets them all taste it. DK immediately starts knocking it, trying to point out all that’s wrong with the burger that’s “currently kicking [his] ass.” DK, being the team leader, opts to not change anything, despite Gordie practically pleading with him to make the burger less plain. I mean, shit, I’m sure it’s a good burger, but how’s a burger topped in coleslaw gonna compete with a burger topped with cheese, bacon, and bbq sauce?!? It won’t. “That burger I just tasted was gross.” But, of course, the best burgers are gross burgers. I still can’t understand the logic of trying to reason out that all of the people who are ultimately deciding the outcome of the challenge are wrong, and you’re the only one that’s right. Most of us grow out of that when we exit our teenage years, but not DK. He just keeps arguing with Gordie, and yet again, Pride is the downfall. I just really wanted to work in another shot of Bastage and his absurd outfit…you know it probably cost him more than the combined cost of all 100 truckers outfits.... We’re at 50-39, and there’s a trucker ready to vote. And…commercial!! The horror!!! And we’re back, and the Red team wins, and we’re all like “noooo Slim isn’t going home noooo!!!” Jake still sits around and talks about how his burger was a better burger… “The weaker burger won today.” Seriously, where else would you hear a line like that? Even Cap’n Cliché himself looks pained by it. Well, that’s that…We have a losing team yet again, so there’s another pressure test. This week’s test…a table of ingredients, from the common to the exotic. The contestants have to name them by sight, touch, and smell. I guess they could try to hear them, too, so basically only taste is excluded. Again, like last week, this whole event lasts like 25 minutes…but it’s boring as hell. An amazing pressure test, to be sure…and with stunning ingredients So, I play along, kinda like when you watch Jeopardy…what, am I the only one who watches Jeopardy? Well, anyways, I think my total, without the benefit of touch or smell, was in the neighborhood of 13. So a couple of the scores below are pretty shameful, but I’m just going to list them for you again, and hope you don’t mind me skimming over this terrible segment of the show… Jake starts off, and says he’s aiming for 20…well… Scores, in order of participation: Jake: 11 Tony: 9 Lee: >9 Whitney: >9 Tracy: >9 So, we learned from this pressure test, too, right? Again, arrogant chefs are like blondes in Hollywood. They suck. Ah, see what I did there? I finished Gordie’s thought from week 1 with a clever little pun. CLEVER PUN. Laugh, already!! Most of the chefs, instead of going for the 12 or so ingredients that even I could name, they all go for weird ass ingredients. It’s ridiculous. Lucky for most of them, Capn’ Cliché set the bar so fucking low that it didn’t matter… Seriously, “passion fruit?!?!?” THERE’S A REASON IT’S CALLED STARFRUIT, DUMBASS!! IT’S BECAUSE IT’S SHAPED LIKE A STAR!!! The children are right to laugh at you!!! So, Cap’n Cliché is sent home, and nothing of value was lost. Tracy moves higher on my list of people I want to see get sent home, just because of her reaction when she’s told that Tony only got 9 right. As much as I’ve been begging for Slim to get sent home, this “see you next Tuesday” has reached the top of my list… And we’re finally on to the “next week on” segment, and so this is where I leave you yet again. Be careful not to spoil your MasterChef dinner, and come back hungry next week…when hopefully there will be more than a weak-ass two eliminations.>

Ask The Astrosexologist How Do I Nab An Aquarius Man

Source: The Frisky Added: 5 day ago

So there's this guy that I have had a major crush on for about five years now.  His birthday is Feb. 9 (Aquarius), and my birthday is Sept. 24 (Libra).  I've gotten quite a few signs from him that he is interested in me, but seeing as we are both rather shy, neither of us have done anything.  So my question is, is there anything that I can do to encourage him to do something, or is there anything in particular that I can do that would ... entice him, for lack of a better word, or even sort of draw him in?  I don't see him much anymore, but I have him as a friend on Facebook, so I have some access to what's going on in his life.  Like I said, I've liked this guy for about five or six years now and I'm tired of this game we've been playing.  I look at him; he looks away. He looks at me and I look away.  We seem to have lots in common personality wise. We're both kind of sarcastic and we both have the same sense of humor, but we are also both kind of shy, which makes this sort of thing kind of difficult.  Plus, neither of us have had a lot of experience with the opposite sex.  Anyway, what should I do? —Nat

Rachel Zoe Project I ' m Having a White Moment

Source: TVgasm Added: 7 day ago

The show opens with what I think is Go Getta by Stella Mwangi which is an awesome song...but we don't get to hear it so I just thought I'd mention it. Topic 1 on the agenda of this week's episode is the need for Oscar dresses. Rachel explains that while designers show off tons of outfits every fashion week there aren't enough Oscar quality dresses and there is a lot of competition for those few dresses that are magnificent. Rachel sets her own agenda. She wants white dresses for Cameron Diaz and Demi Moore so they can have a "white moment". Does that involve subjugating other nationalities because of perceived superiority and callous indifference? No? Oh, it just means wearing white? OK, then. Topic 2 on the agenda. Rachel and Husband Rodger have an upcoming anniversary! Sadly, there's no time to celebrate. They had a winter wedding (The way Rachel says that lots of other couples have summer wedding while we had a winter wedding makes it seem like one of those long buried arguments married people bring up when they mean to say "this is your fault") and so they have to celebrate their anniversary during Fashion Week. It can't be helped. As Rachel puts it, "This is my job". We start Day 1 of our Fall 2010 Fashion Week coverage at an Oscar de la Renta show. *excited clapping* Rachel is there with Rodger and Brad in tow. There's nothing to really film backstage aside from models getting their hair done. Oscar is there and Rachel morphs into a 16-year-old girl, VERY flirty and girlish. He tells her "I looked back to be able to see forward" (translation: There are only so many ways you can manipulate cloth and wrap it around a dress form so I stole from the past). She twirls her hair and giggles. The gowns are gorgeous. There are some mediocre numbers but I am generally pleased. What is with the obsession with punky/angsty porcelain doll little girls? Pretty von Furstenberg-esque maxi dress. Scary, zombiefied model. Something a little more tailored and structured. Very "Undead Housewives Charity Brunch". Homeless girls need evening gowns, too. I can't help thinking of the feather duster in Beauty & the Beast. Qui? You want that I should sweep the floor with my dress, monsieur? Rachel's attention is caught by a gold dress. She thinks that maybe it'll be good for Cameron Diaz. She says some other nonsense but all I catch is that it's a princess dress and it's been a while since Cameron has had a "princess moment". Have we forgotten "Shrek Forever After" so soon? There's a bit about NY Traffic that's just about as exciting as you would think watching someone sitting in traffic would be. Yup. Just a few notches more boring that sitting in traffic yourself. This is entertainment, people. Day 1 Fashion Week continued: Because of all the terrible traffic they're late to the Michael Kors Fashion Show but whatever...he's a hack and makes hideous or very simple clothes. Rachel explains that being late is a big deal because if you're given a front row seat (which I assume she was) and you don't show up it's very obvious that there's an empty seat and people notice. This then upsets the relationship you have with the PR directors who notice the empty seats up front and take this as a snub and it's those PR directors who are the ones you have to call later to get dresses. Day 2 Fashion Week: I assume it's morning because Rachel answers the door in her bathrobe. Brian Atwood has come calling. They talk for a bit about designing a special Rachel Zoe shoe. I have a healthy amount of respect for people who can design a great variety of shoes since in my mind there can't be more than 10 or 20 basic variations. This session does nothing to make the task seem tremendously difficult as he just sketches a simple half-boot with a high heel and scribbles a zipper down the back. Some shoes he's designed. Rodger goes with Sister Pamela (I know that makes her sound like a nun) to a lingerie store. Since they'll be celebrating their anniversary soon, Rodger wants to get Rachel lingerie as a gift. #1 Why are you buying a gift a few days before your anniversary? If you knew you were going to buy lingerie it's not as if you'd have to worry about her gaining weight. #2 How is lingerie a gift for the woman? That's a gift for you. The store looks like it stocks  high-end lingerie before they pull out all the naughty items...lubricant, vibrators, french maid outfits. What kind of high-end store is this? Rachel would not approve... And why did you bring your sister-in-law? In his interview, Rodger says "When you're younger you don't really understand what it means to be in love. I think I'm more in love with Rachel now." Awww. Brad sent alone to the Derek Lam show since Rachel is tied up in meetings all morning. Wow, these clothes are hideous. Meryl Streep as Miranda Priestly would tear her apart. Sexy Cowgirl Secretary? This is a really simple look without the hat. Any ghost from one of the movies where it never stops raining... Brad says "As soon as the white gown came down the runway I knew it was the perfect dress for Cameron Diaz". So the white moment is about funeral shrouds? Brad calls Rachel to tell her he's found a dress. He says "It's so modern but so elegant...comfortable but chic". She says "You know I think it's really sexy when you say blouses". Calm down there, Rach. OK, new topic. Obviously we've been stuck on the same one for too long. QVC is staging a show. Rachel is designer. Rachel's fashion show is all about "accessible glamour" and "being able to work these garments into everyday life". Translation: I want to make clothes for the kind of women who shop on QVC. The clothes can't be so couture that when they wear them to the Walmart they're burned as witches, or heathens, or pagans. Do they still burn pagans? We only see a shiny trench coat. It's simple and aside from the cheap, shiny fabric it isn't too hideous. Day 3 of Fashion Week: Unfortunately fashion shows don't stop for our anniversary. -Rachel Rachel and Rodger watch a video from their younger days. We see Rachel when she was young (though can you believe wikipedia says she's 38???). She has brown hair and really harsh makeup and dark lipstick. She comments on how much she has grown and how she didn't know where her life was going at that point and cute things about her and Rodger but I can't type that fast so all I got was "I'm a brunette with no wrinkles" and "Ooo, that was some bad hair and makeup". "I love you." -Rachel "I love you more"-Rodger The two exchange gifts. Rachel got him a gift and then got herself a gift for him to give to her. I find that hilarious. There's a bit where they debate over who should open the package which ends up containing...rose-gold handcuffs. OK, first off, now we know who buys those kinds of things. Secondly, happy anniversary! Tres romantique. Now it's time to reveal what Rodger bought for her at the lingerie shop. Rodger: "Honey I got you something". Rachel: "I'm not wearing it. Not wearing it. Not wearing it. He explains that he knows she's been saying she needs a black camisole so he got her one. Aw, he listens. She finally takes a look inside the box and says "That's beautiful. I will wear it". Yay! She then riffles further and finds really skimpy black lace panties which she hides back in the box because "it's embarrassing". Obviously she has forgotten that people are filming this gift exchange to show on national television. God, Rodger! He tells her to hold on because he got her something else. I am jarred from typing this all up when I hear "No way! Shut up!" I turn and there's a Barbie designed to look like Rachel. You know, just taller and with fewer wrinkles and better hair. Whatever. She loves Barbies and she adores the doll. It even has a little chanel jacket and her sunglasses. I can't help it. I think it's adorable that he knows what makes her happy and is still trying after all the years they've been married to come up with something special. Rachel: "He never ever disappoints me...after 17 years together." AWWW After all that cuteness we're back to complaining. Honestly, there are two settings on this show. Complaining and catastrophe. Rodger says "My dream anniversary would definitely be Rachel and I on a beach alone no phones" but he knows that's not going to happen because their anniversary is always in the middle of fashion week. He suggests going to see a broadway show. Rachel points out that they don't do that even when it's not our anniversary. He says that's the point, that it's their anniversary so they should do something special. Instead she drags him along to a Donna Karan show. Demi Moore, Brooke Shields, and Susan Sarandon are there. The dresses are a mixture of hideous and mediocre. The models are creepy, red-lipped robots. Yes, this is soooo much better than a Broadway show. It's a sea of black and gray which Demi "lives in" but Rachel is going to take her out of her comfort zone this year so she can have a white moment. Rachel, I love you, but please stop saying that. Because all girls want an outfit that no one looks good in. Because if you intentionally have a nip slip wardrobe malfunction it's chic? Meh. Christian Siriano could have done it better. A simple, flattering dress slightly modified to be slightly unflattering. I like it, but then it's very simple. And we switch gears again to another unrelated topic (I've stopped keeping count). Someone just posted on Brad's twitter that Taylor is in NY. He is sitting with hair/makeup artist Joey by a window and tells him this. The only purpose of this segment is to bring up Taylor again so Brad can say "Taylor spent so much time trying to make me seem like an idiot, people started to believe I was an idiot. Now people are starting to see I'm really good at what i do." Thanks, Brad. Now, back to our regularly scheduled programming... Psych! Another unrelated topic! Sister Pam comes to sit with Rachel. She's leaving tomorrow which makes this a perfect time to have a conversation about Rachel not having kids. Cue promo scene at the end of last week's episode. We learn that Sister Pam is a single mom with two kids in suburbia which Rachel sees as the opposite of her life. I'd also like to point out that this does not really make her the best choice for recruiting new candidates for motherhood. If I had a sister with two children to take care of on my own I wouldn't be eager to follow in her footsteps if I had a loving husband and a fulfilling career. Rachel says that having children is an not impulsive decision. Most of her family lives across the country so they wouldn't be able to help and she has an "underlying fear that if I become a mom, my career goes out the window". While she would love to have children she would also be undertaking another obligation that would interfere with the obligations imposed by her career. I kind of love how she puts it. Instead of complaining that a child would be a pain, she says that if someone were coming to her saying mommy this and mommy that and constantly needing her help she would want to drop everything for them and that would cause her to neglect her responsibilities. Aw. No nanny, wet nurse, and loads of assistants roped into childcare for her. New scene! This show kind of has ADD. Rachel stands there like a little doll while Joey pins up her hair and Brad sews up her dress. The other straight woman in the room just hovers while the gays take charge. Her hair looks very pretty in an updo but she insists on undoing Joey's hard work (then why did you hire him?) and leaving her hair loose. Everyone protests and Brad says "You look like a couture Wicked Witch of the West with your hair down". That's certainly a nicer way of putting it. Rachel and Rodger are in the car/van/SUV with Brad in the back. Rachel: "I feel like there's no better way to spend our anniversary...going to a Marc Jacobs fashion show." Brad: "I feel like I really complete your anniversary." Brad asks if they want him to go to dinner with them after the show. Rachel: If you want me to get divorced. Brad interviews that "when Rodger's not around I assume the role of the fashion husband. Which I love". I wonder why everyone keeps inventing phrases. Stop being Gretchen from Mean Girls...white moment, fashion husband, fetch? It's not going to happen. Stop trying to make it happen. The Marc Jacobs show is full of different forms of tackiness. Fur and various shiny fabrics and way too much plaid. I'm frightened. Can't you just smize?   Plaid Squirrel-Human Mutant Hiking Scout Collaboration b/n Bowler Hatted Straight Guy and Ping Sexy Canadian Fishing Costume? I don't even know how to make a joke for this one... Jenna from Pretty Little Liars! After all of that wonderful fun, Rachel and Rodger drive off to have dinner at Babbo. Cute things are said. They're mostly killing time until they get there. Rachel tells him how Marc wished them a happy anniversary. She wonders if she's overdressed. He tells her that the common folk do occasionally dress up to go to dinner. Fashion Week Final Day: Rachel gets a call informing her that the stage at the Oscars will be white so they're requesting that no one wear a white gown. Gargh! Prerequisite Catastrophe! Happily, the episode's almost over this week so there's no time to make a big deal out of this. They're off to a Marchesa presentation. This is the sort of high fashion couture we've been waiting for. Bam! Vagina-highlighting black circle explosion! I can't shake the feeling that I've seen this fuzzy-sponge attack dress before... I love it FOR it's impracticality. The show is a presentation that involves all the models standing around in vignettes (translation: like mannequins) while people hover around them taking pictures and making notes. Rachel's attention is caught by a silver dress (that looks gold on the show and in the pictures I found). She says it's definitely a Best Dressed. It's the kind of dress a winner wears. I'm pretty sure it's the dress that Sandra Bullock wore when she won minus the shoulder blobs. Ooo, dramatic irony!   Rachel calls the team in LA to get the dress (vignette 6). Join me next week when there are apparently issues getting the dress. Future catastrophe! Hmn...I wonder why...>

Frisky Readers Split Down The Middle On Drinking While Pregnant

Source: The Frisky Added: 8 day ago

Earlier this week, Ami posted about a recent article that said it's becoming more common for women to have the occasional drink while pregnant. We polled you on what your drinking policy would be when you're pregnant and over 4,700 of you responded. I suspect the results were shocking no matter how you voted, in that it was basically split down the middle. Over 48.5 percent of you indicated that you would drink while pregnant anywhere from only "on special occasions" (22.85 percent) to "every now and then" (24.1 percent), with 1.5 percent (74 of you!) vowing to imbibe even more regularly—though I hope you're joking (as we were) about "passing the smokes." Meanwhile, over 51 percent of you said you would have a zero tolerance alcohol policy while pregs. So what gives?

So if you still haven’t had the time to catch up with – Lamhaa, Tere Bin Laden and Udaan then read on…………… Lamhaa: This flick by Rahul Dholakia has a basic storyline about the Kashmiris, who are struggling to lead a normal life, yet are sometimes drawn into the utter chaos, which is pertaining there. The basic politically motivated turmoil, the tensions, curfews and the trauma of the common man, living in the once beautiful and lush Kashmir valley, is all wonderfully captured in the film. The protagonist played by Sanjay Dutt a police officer and Bipasha, a Kashmiri girl who falls in love with Sanjay and then the turmoil that they go through. Tere Bin Laden is a serious issue which has been tackled with a very comic structure of the storyline, which is woven with pure fun moments and comic relief. The flick, directed by debutant Abhishek Sharma, has a very cool and contemporary take on a serious issue. The story is based on a young boy belonging to the ordinary strata of society, who wants to make a bright future for himself in the U.S. The events of how he manages to migrate there follow, giving one funny moment after another. Udaan – This movie is directed by debutant director Vikramaditya Motwani. The flick is based on the trials and tribulations of the young generation and how the strict rules imposed upon young minds often lead to rebellious situations. The storyline is all about a young guy who returns home from hostel, after about 8 years of schooling there. On his return, he discovers that life was an almost treachery path, due to a step brother, and a dad who was the strictest form of Hitler, if there ever was one. The struggle of the young guy to make his life more meaningful, against all odds, is what makes it an excellent watch. The basic story, of a young students struggle to make good on his own, is almost gripping to a point and it makes one identify with one’s own self and real life situations with utmost impact. This new take on the problems faced by the youth all over the world is certainly a great effort by the director and the cast, to make the point of freedom at a certain level necessary drive home. Thus all the three flicks, Lamhaa, Tere Bin Laden and Udaan are a must watch for those seeking for some meaningful and theme based cinema!
