Yahoo has launched their new site to a more targeted audience. Yahoo hopes to appeal to the approximately 40 million women ages 25 to 54 that use Yahoo monthly.

Yahoo thinks their categories will appeal to the masses, but when they touch on everything of course they don’t leave much room for anything else.

They cover , for those who wish to remove the zits and the cellulite in one miracle cream. I hate to break it to your fat lazy ass, but eating bon-bons while you smoke a pack of Camel Lights does not help your cellulite issue. Get off your butt and do some work, jog or use the ellipticals you bought last year when you were hopeful, it doesn’t matter, working out is good for you, do it.

, because most people consult the internet before they ask a doctor what is right. is another one of their categories since everyone needs to pry into the celebrities lives. goes along side the doctor thing, people would rather than ask their mother or mother-in-law. is a huge target group, women in general are either sad, happy, happy in love, in a bad relationship, having sex, loving sex, hating their sex lives and want better ones… so either way you turn, Love and Sex is the way to go. , for those who want to make a quick buck, save their cash for that Bermuda trip or just hate their job. and are a couple of goodies, I always like new recipes and ways to organize better, even if I don’t. is bogus, but people believe that and love it. Ah yes, , one category that will actually be interesting. Speak Up is their community section, where people can voice their opinion, much like I do here.

Papercraft, or Pepakura, is basically origami except this is done with heavy paper or card stock. This hobby is actually pretty popular, the majority of the paper crafters are from Japan, Europe and the United States.

Origami uses no glue, just paper, which can be difficult, especially if you suck at folding. Papercraft allows the use of glue and whatever else you need to make your model correct, but it still is pretty difficult. For those who cannot create from their imagination, and have it still turn out pretty, the internet is filled with all the stuff you need: templates, directions and a finished product to see where you’ve gone wrong. Here are a few of the ones I have seen that I think are cool, yes it shows my inner nerd, but whatever I like anime and Star Wars.

Ben Levin and Matt Burnett paired up to make this skit from their wonderful animation “studio.” They have a couple other shorts that you can find on their and on their website ForTaxReasons.com. They were featured on BoingBoing TV, which turns out is pretty funny as well.

There, I unleashed my inner geek for a second, enjoy the papercraft!

Update 4/1/08: Here is video with more craptastic information about the lovely TSA and how they are here to help you. Let’s just hope that they get friendlier attitudes along with these new “advancements” in their strip search of your personal space.

I cannot be the only person out there thinking that security at airports is getting beyond ridiculous… can I? I enjoy my freedoms, but I also enjoy my security. When I go to the airport I expect to be safe and comfortable. I would never suspect a woman to rip the jewelry out of her tender nipples in order to hijack the plane and put the people aboard at risk.

I just read about a 37 year old Texas woman named Mandi Hamlin who had to remove her painful piercings after the female employee scanned her chest with the hand metal sensor. I know it is security measures, but they went a little overboard with this. Hamlin offered to expose her piercings after being told to step behind a curtain and remove the piercings or miss her flight.

“Still crying, she informed the TSA officer that she could not remove it without the help of pliers, and the officer gave a pair to her,” said Hamlin’s attorney, Gloria Allred, reading from a letter she sent Thursday to the director of the TSA’s Office of Civil Rights and Liberties. Allred is a Los Angeles lawyer who often represents high-profile claims.

She said she heard male TSA agents snickering as she took out the ring. She was scanned again and was allowed to board even though she still was wearing a belly button ring.

“After nipple rings are inserted, the skin can often heal around the piercing, and the rings can be extremely difficult and painful to remove,” Allred said in the letter.

Sorry to have ranted on this, but it just peeves me that this happened… I definitely would fight to keep my piercings in, what if you had an even more private piercing like say your clit? or a Prince Albert? Jacob’s Ladder? I really would hate to have to be one of those people who have 12 piercings on a super sensitive area.

This is what I like to see from the TSA:

 

Thanks to DS, I had the pleasure of seeing such a futuristic way of life, even if it is Microsoft it is pretty cool.  Now all of you get to watch this 4 minute long video, it’s long but worth the time.  Digital wallets are the way of the future!

Wow, this little lady is less than great. Lauren on America’s Next Top Model went blank, as if she wasn’t already, when Tyra asked her to show a sexy pose of her palms hurting. I bet Tyra’s stalker Brady Green would have done a better job at that pose than that blank-minded girl. The rest of the ladies played their parts graciously, even if some of theirs were super easy.

I love America’s Next Top Model, but I don’t always get to watch the entire series. I tend to watch it when I go over to one of my girl friends house, she is way more devoted than I.

I watched a tiring seven minute long video on MSN today about the Vogue magazine cover. I learned a few things, Vogue has been around for over 100 years, that LeBron James is the first black man to grace the cover and there were only 4 black women prior to him. The cover is controversial now due to the fact that some people, bloggers, are comparing the image to a King Kong photo of a gorilla holding a damsel in distress.

So that whole business with LeBron James and the King Kongish photo with the beautiful super model Gisele on the cover of Vogue is completely asinine. The argument of the bloggers out there is that the image just caters to the stereotypes against blacks. Pfft, who thinks about that when they look at the cover of a very famous athlete and a beautiful woman? He is simply doing what he does best, holding a beautiful woman, dribbling a basketball and showing some excitement. So for those out there who think otherwise you sound completely ignorant. Have a nice day.

Love the photo Vogue, A+ LeBron and Gisele.

I see so many botched celebrity plastic surgeries, most of them I find on TMZ, but this one is hilarious.

Hollywood’s ‘elite’ are in big trouble with their regular plastic surgeons. Word that Priscilla Presley, among many others, went ahead and got procedures done to alter her appearance. In most cases this is done to make yourself look better, or more fitting for society. Well, these poor celebutards hired the wrong guy this time. Instead of sticking to their normal plastic surgeons, who have actual documentation of completing the school required, and went for the ‘Doc’ with the goods.

Dr. Daniel Serrano around 2003. Serrano was a good-looking doc from Argentina who hooked into Hollywood’s social A-list and started giving them what he claimed were miracle injections that worked better than Botox.

In fact, Serrano was injecting industrial, low-grade silicone similar to what’s used to lubricate auto parts in Argentina into the faces of these women. Several women, including Shawn King, Larry’s wife, and Diane Richie, Lionel’s wife at the time, held injection parties in their homes, with Serrano needling them with the non-FDA approved drug that he had smuggled in to the U.S. Shawn King has said the injections created a lump in her lip that made it difficult to speak and drink liquids. Serrano charged between $300 and $500 a pop.

But wait, it gets worse. Serrano wasn’t even a licensed doc in the U.S. The injections caused lumps, paralysis and holes in the faces of some of the women (and some men) he injected.

Woohoo, I bet they look pretty now.

  Plastic surgery for no reason other than to make yourself look younger, prettier or to get bigger boobs, is absolutely ridiculous.  People like Ashley Simpson who once looked different and now looks identical to her more beautiful sister, how pathetic.  Why can’t people stop screwing up their image and learn to live with themselves.

Look at Lisa Rinna, Michael Jackson, Jocelyn Wildenstein, and the list goes on.  Look at this for the top 15 biggest disasters of cosmetic surgery.

For those of you who are disgusted with how the Hogans, or Bollea, family handled the Nick Hogan August 2007 wreck… Don’t worry, justice still has a chance.

Back in August of 2007, Nick Hogan was illegally street racing with some friends in his father’s cars when he was involved in a horrible crash that left his passenger in a coma. The family of John Graziano, the passenger, has filed suit against the Hulk, Linda and Nick Hogan for negligence and being directly liable for the wreck.

Let’s hope some justice comes to this.

Oh my, this is rather disturbing.  The McCain girls are a little , uh, not sexy.  Apparently Obama lucked out when was his quirky supporter, but these girls just make McCain look sad.

I mean, the song itself is funny, but the singing is dreadful, they would be kicked off American Idol before they even hit their second note.  It is so off key that my dog looked at my laptop oddly and ran off as the song played in the background.  Lucky for me Styx is on the radio drowning out Raining McCain.

Poor McCain, some sexier ladies should support him. GO!

My favorite part though was when the older lady in green kept disappearing in the green screens, love it!

I’m gonna go out and let myself get absolutely John McCain!
