The net has been abuzz with the recent events in the Chris and Rihanna saga. It seems in love all is forgiven. As expected Chris and Rihanna may be on the road to reconciliation, but will the justice system be as forgiving?

      <title>2.19 - CAN CHARRED FOOD CAUSE CANCER?</title>
      <description>
 This week, Charlie Wilson – from the Gap band – revealed that he was diagnosed with prostate cancer. What caught my attention is that he mentioned that cancer can arise from charred food. Why charred food is what summer is all about. Men especially enjoy cooking in that fashion so I had to find out just how true Charlie’s statement was.

      <description>
I came across the article and had to share.  The article suggests what we’ve heard for years – that you marry your parents.  

In retrospect, I have to agree.  I think some of us do it intentionally while others of us unconsciously do it.  At the end of the day, I do believe that the majority of us do it!

I went from an electric heat source to a gas heat source. And with that has come extreme dryness – dry eyes, dry throat, dry nose. This was a problem. Putting in eye drops and drinking enough fluid to soothe my throat was adding time to my morning routine.

      <title>1.7 - BWW REVIEW:  ORIGINS OIL CONTROLLING LOTION</title>
      <description>
African Americans generally have trouble with oily skin mainly because our skin has more and larger sebaceous (or oil) glands than our Caucasian or Asian sisters.

The good news is this skin type is generally slower to show fine lines, wrinkles and discoloration. The downside can be more frequent breakouts, large pores and a greasy appearance.

However when the merely overweight folks are separated out, the health risks drop and sometimes even disappear.  Hmmm.....

This time, "your" idea is met with a chorus of "Great idea!" from your colleagues. Oh no she didn’t…..

      <title>11.7 - KEVON EDMONDS:  Past Meets Present</title>
      <description>
Yes ladies and gents, he’s back and he’s definitely got something to prove. Kevon Edmonds, known for being the lead vocalist of After7 as well as Babyface’s older brother, is currently working on his second solo album that’s set to release in early 2009. On it, we can expect to hear the same soulfully potent voice that made Kevon famous, as well as lyrics that are authentic and unadulterated.

      <title>11.6 - COMING CLEAN</title>
      <description>
Splattered spaghetti sauce, dribbled merlot, and loose lipstick. They're the mishaps that keep on giving — in the form of unsightly stains. But with speed, the right splotch-fighting agents, and the proper plan of attack, your shirt doesn't need to be relegated to the rag pile.

      <title>11.6 - BARACK OBAMA - YES WE DID!!!!!</title>
      <description>
The inevitable has happened. BARACK OBAMA IS THE NEW PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.  The first African-American president – named Barack Obama no less with a Kenyan father. He’s been called everything from a terrorist to an elitist. When they weren’t questioning his experience, they were scrutinizing his place of worship and the backgrounds of his associates. They even stole his slogan! Yet……He defied the odds.

      <title>11.4 - If the People Around Me Would Change</title>
      <description>
Do you find yourself frustrated by the same types of occurrences in your life - over and over again? Perhaps it is the aggressive people in the traffic you endure daily during your commute. Maybe it is the behavior of someone you deal with regularly who does not behave as you think they should.

      <title>11.3 - What is Toner and Do I Need It?</title>
      <description>
This weekend, I went by Origins – a store that totes its success on the fact that all its products are formulated with the finest quality renewable plants, earth and sea substances – to pick up one my favorite moisturizers for oily skin.  
 
Just before I pulled my debit card out to purchase it, the sales clerk asked if I needed toner. In the face of a firm no, the sales clerk immediately went into the benefits that a toner provided. While I didn’t budge, she made me wonder: What exactly is toner and do I need it?
