F-Bomb
New words were added to the Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary yesterday, and they include
- F-Bomb
- Sexting
- Flexitarian
- Obesogenic
- Energy drink
- Life coach
F-bomb dates back to 1988 from a Newsday story about Mets catcher Gary Carter talking about how he had given up profanity. F-bomb was brought back in the late 90's after Bobby Knight went F-bomb crazy during a locker room tirade.
The company picks about 100 new words a year.

Chocaholic News
Chocolate with fruit juice? A university scientist has spent months developing a chocolate bar that looks, feels and tastes like chocolate, but contains fruit juice to replace 50% of chocolate's fat content. Cocoa butter and milk fats that go into chocolate bars are swapped for tiny droplets of juice, which yes, will give it a fruity taste. The team hopes the food industry will use the new technique to create healthy bars.
Gaga. Lady Gaga. Fame.
Here's the black goo trailer for Lady Gaga's new perfume. You're as strange as ever, Gaga. Love ya.
