One week 'till V-Day. Just sayin'. Today, though, is another important day, it's the kickoff to  Just Say No to Power Point Week. Of course, who doesn't enjoy a nice, long presentation about something nobody cares a about. It's also National Fettuccini Alfredo Day and the kick-off to National School Counseling Week and Risk Awareness Week.

Research has narrowed down the exact age when women start losing their looks... (insert blog address)

35.09
Researchers for a Japanese skincare study conducted a study along with Fukui University to discover the exact age when women start rapidly maturing -- and narrowed it down to 35.09 years old. After that, things start happening: Wrinkles appear, skin sags, and it's much harder to rebound after lack of sleep or too many cocktails.

This isn't the first study to pinpoint exactly when things start going downhill. QVC had a survey last July that found women reach their beauty peak at 31, and a report from Superdrug last December said 52 was the perfect age for plastic surgery.

Time moves on. Things change. Can't stop it. But you CAN control your attitude over it all. What has been the worst hump to get over when it comes to aging? Oh, and tell those kids to GET OFF MY LAWN!

Wow. Someone needs a vacation. 3 reasons why women are unhappier than EVER (insert your blog address here)

C'mere, Gimmie A Hug!
How depressing is to hear women are more depressed than ever. A couple studies highlight the issue:

2009, from the national Bureau of Economics found women are unhappier than they've been in 35 years.
A survey of 200,000 college freshman found women are always less happy than men.

What gives? Self Magazine points out three reasons -- see if you agree:

#1 For the last several decades, women's roles and responsibilities have blown up. "You're supposed to look stunning, work out and be physically in shape, have a wonderful relationship and family."

#2 We try too hard to force happiness which, ironically, backfires and makes us miserable. Happiness has become an ultimate goal and we do everything to avoid negative feelings. Happiness is impossible to sustain all the time.

#3 Technology (we're looking at you, Facebook!) gives us a 24/7 way to compare ourselves to others. "Facebook causes constant comparisons and the sense that you're not measuring up"

So what can you do to change your attitude? Life coach Kiki Weingarten told Self: "Appreciate what you do have. The constant hunt for the next great thing only leaves you rushing around for the next 'get' and not appreciating what's in front of you." Consider placing limit on your social networking. A good place to start: No Facebook (or Twitter, etc.) after 5 p.m. Your evenings are about you -- not everyone else you know.

The good, the bad, and the ugly from last night's Super Bowl (insert blog address)

Super Bowl Rollercoaster

Last night's big game may go down for more flubs than highlights. What did you think? A few notes:

-850 fans showed up only to find out their seats weren't there...literally. Stadium workers didn't have enough time to install all temporary seats, so they relocated over half to other seats around the stadium, and gave the other half triple the cost of the face value of their $900 seats. They also got to watch the game on a big screen from inside the stadium.

Christina Aguilera flubbed the National Anthem, repeating a line of the song. She was supposed to sing "O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming." Instead she sang "What so proudly we watched at the twilight's last gleaming." Twitter and Facebook lit up like the Fourth of July... and they weren't kind.

The Black Eyed Peas put on a huge half-time show, with Slash and Usher making a surprise appearance. The show, though, was riddled with audio problems, and Entertainment Weekly thought the band looked "small." They think "... the Peas, merely standing next to each other in a line, looked awkward, as if they didn’t have a concrete plan for what would happen after they descended from the sky."
