4 lil' Tricks That Make You Eat Less

If you want to lose weight but have absolutely no will power, here are four tricks that will make you eat less.

#1.) Turn on Relaxing Music. Soft music naturally relaxes you and lowers your stress level, which makes you chew slower than if you were listening to, say, death metal. And when you eat slower, you start feeling full faster.

#2.) Turn on More Lights. Dim lighting might create a more romantic atmosphere, but another reason restaurants keep the lights down is because it lowers your inhibitions and makes you eat more.

#3.) Light a Vanilla-Scented Candle. The scent of vanilla makes you less likely to want dessert. In fact, one group of volunteers lost an average of four-and-a-half pounds each by wearing vanilla-scented patches.

#4.) Paint Your Dining Room Blue. This is weird, but researchers have found that people eat 33% less if they're sitting in a blue room.

--It's because when light bounces off of the walls, it creates a blue tint, which makes the food look less appetizing.

--The colors red, orange, and yellow have the opposite effect, which is why so many fast-food places use those colors inside.

Her bra size would be a 39 FF, putting Dolly Parton’s 40 DDs to shame"! - Her measurements "would be an unrealistic 39-21-33. If Barbie had the hips of an average American woman, size 14, she would be 8’ 9’’. - She "wouldn't have enough room in her arms for all her bones." - Her "head would be almost triple the size of a normal-sized head.

The Relationship Research Institute Has Found the Three Signs Your Relationship Has Potential . . . and Four Signs It's In Trouble
Dr. John Gottman founded the RRI, and he says they've identified the three signs a relationship has long-term potential, and the four signs it's in trouble.

The three signs your relationship has long-term potential are:


#1.) Each of you is genuinely interested in the other's day-to-day lives, dreams, goals, likes, and dislikes.

#2.) You ask open-ended questions and ask for more info and details.

#3.) You show signs of affection like smiling, laughing, and touching.

The four signs your relationship is doomed are:

#1.) Too much criticism.

#2.) You both find yourselves getting defensive all the time.

#3.) There seems to be a lot of contempt.

#4.) Instead of talking out problems, you stonewall each other and shut down communication.

Would You Let Someone Paint Your House Bright Colors and Cover It With Ads If They Paid Your Mortgage?

The company is called Adzookie. And they're offering to pay your mortgage . . . IF you let them paint your house in bright colors and cover it with ads.

Here's an example of what a painted house would look like. It's yellow, orange, purple, and covered in ads. But at least the lawn looks nicely manicured.

Why has ‘The Hangover: Part II’ trailer been pulled from theaters?



Warner Bros. has issued a statement regarding the yanked trailer for “The Hangover: Part II.”

“In our haste to meet the placement schedule for this trailer, we failed to properly vet the final version with the MPAA,” says the statement, e-mailed to me by a studio publicist. “We acted immediately to correct the mistake and removed the trailer from screens.” WHY???

Answer: You have a nice smile

Question: They estimate that 2.4 billion people around the world are expected to do this Month - what is it?

Answer: Watch (or listen) to the Royal Wedding!

BTW According to the "Astrology Detective" on YourTango.com, Prince William's wedding day is a bad one. Says the Detective: "On April 29, 2011, Kate and Williams's wedding day, nearly all of the planets are in disharmonious positions, which could mean a married life filled with challenges and misunderstandings. They would have been better off waiting a month or two to wed under more harmonious skies. In fact, if Princess Diana were around today she never would have allowed the couple to wed on April 29. Diana used astrologers, and any good astrologer would have told Waity Katey to waity a lil longer.

In honor of "National Crime Victims’ Rights Week - Reagan library is Screening of “Heaven’s Rain”"


Please join us for a private screening of “Heaven’s Rain,” the inspiring true story of Brooks Douglass, his sister Leslie, and their parents who were brutally attacked by two drifters in 1979. Mr. Douglass and his sister survived the attack, but their parents did not. The crime became a driving force for Mr. Douglass to become the youngest elected Oklahoma State Senator, and to champion legislation on behalf of crime victims.

The film will be screened at 7:00 p.m. and will be followed by a film discussion with Ventura County District Attorney Greg Totten and the film’s co-author and producer, Brooks Douglass.

This film has been rated R for due to brief flashbacks to a crime scene, which are handled delicately and respectfully, but are not appropriate for children.

This event is free and open to the public; however, reservations for seating are recommended. Click here.
