It’s hard to believe that just over a month ago was the first time the Top 20 took the stage and now, we’re staring down the barrel of the finale with only six contestants left after tonight. But even the harshest critics of the show’s new Stage vs. Street format have to agree that the […]
7 Snacks That Are Perfect for Back to School
Somehow we’re entering September and back to school time in just a few days. I’m not really sure how to it happened but before we know it this heat will be gone and we’ll all be wearing our heavy jackets and boots while wondering if we’ll ever not be freezing again. Along with the cold […]
Carly Rae Jepsen Shows ‘Emotion’ on Her New Album
Back in the summer of 2012, Canadian pop singer Carly Rae Jepsen rose to stardom after Justin Bieber tweeted about her uber-catchy hit single, “Call Me Maybe.” Jepsen was subsequently signed to the same label as Bieber, Schoolboy Records, and released an album (called Kiss) later that year. This summer, she’s back and making waves […]
Changing the Face of Back to School With Inspiring Ad Campaign
The end of August is just around the corner and with that are changes. The leaves are starting to look a little less green. Nightfall seems to be coming just a little earlier. Mornings have the slightest bit of chill. Schedules are changing as kids go back to school as well, but it’s not just […]
Paradise Still Exists in Cannon Beach, Oregon
My favorite vacation spot growing up was always Cannon Beach, Oregon. To me, the little town on the Oregon coast was paradise, and I cherished the time I was able to spend there with family and friends. My family went practically every other year when I was growing up, but as I got older and […]
SYTYCD12: The Top 10 Join Forces With The All-Stars
Despite some great routines up to this point, I think it’s safe to say that most SYTYCD fans wait for the night where the show’s best alumni, the “all-stars”, join the ten remaining contestants for some routines that are just that much better for the involvement of a pro and we definitely had a few of those […]
Miriam Pultro Sings It Like It Is with Debut Single, ‘Good Thing I Don’t Love You’
Love is all you need—unless you come to a hard realization regarding the truth of that beloved four-letter word. Falling in love does not always end up like a romantic comedy or a photograph from some home catalog. Love means pain, heartache, breakups, and lonely nights of drinking your face off, or sending text messages you shouldn’t have. No one understands […]
7 Recipes for Summer Camping That is S’More Perfect Than You Know
With summer coming to an end in a few short weeks, it’s time to soak up all the outdoors time you can before it’s back to freezing temperatures and snowy days that will be here before we know it. Soaking up time outside means different things to different people. For some of us, it means […]
Consumers Get Roasted as Starbucks Increases Price of Coffee Nationwide
Last month, Starbucks increased the prices of some of its most popular hot beverages by a nickel to 20 cents in the United States. While customers can expect to see a spike on the small and big sizes of their favorite brewed coffees, The Associated Press reports that the Seattle-based company will keep the prices of their most popular beverages like the Grande Brewed […]
Movie Review: The Not-So-‘Fantastic Four’
The Fantastic Four is my favorite superhero team in the Marvel Universe. When I started reading comics, I loved X-Men and the Avengers, but was captivated by the idea of family that journeyed into the unknown together. They had differences and good times like any family, and they also beat up bad guys. No matter […]
SYTYCD12: The Top 14 Dance Again and the Top 10 is Revealed!
Last week, our consummate host Cat Deeley spilled the unfortunate beans that we’d be losing four members of our talented Top 14 and with the deck so stack, especially on the Street side of things (at least, in my opinion), I knew we’d likely lose at least one dancer before their time tonight, but before we […]
Luke Bryan Amps up Country Music with ‘Kill The Lights’
There is no bigger name in the country music industry today than reigning Entertainer of the Year, Luke Bryan. The 39 year-old Georgia native celebrated his 13th No. 1 hit last week when the debut single “Kick The Dust Up” from his fifth-studio album, Kill The Lights topped country radio airplay charts.

Figuring Out If You’re With “The One”
How do you know you want to marry someone? No matter how much you love your partner today, the idea of an eternal bond can seem overwhelming.
