Welcome to Crystal Harris’s New Life [Gallery]
So I don’t know if you ladies have heard or not, but everyone’s favorite heart-throb Hugh Hefner is settling down…again. And this time with 24-year-old Crystal Harris. PopEater tells us that two are getting closer and closer to making it official now that they’ve set a date for the big day. And while Hugh’s ex, Holly Madison, worries about what would happen to Hugh if the two were to divorce I can’t help but wonder what will happen to Crystal if they don’t!
Baggin’ Out: Matt and Nat Santogold
Matt & Nat is the brainchild of Inder Bedi, and it came about while he was completing his degree in Marketing at Concordia University (in Montreal – go Canada!). As part of a course, he was required to come up with a business plan, which of course was Matt and Nat. Because he practiced a vegetarian lifestyle, the line had to be vegan. He was so taken by the idea of a vegan handbag line, that he decided to give up Law School and turn his business plan into a legitimate career.

Sex in the News: Planned Parenthood & Abortion Law
The House in Arizona passed a bill to ban abortions performed on the basis of race or sex. This means women would have to justify the reason they want to have an abortion. This is especially problematic because a selective body could try and target a women’s race as the reason she wants an abortion rather than the fact that maybe she can’t afford to support a child at that stage in her life.

The 83rd Annual Academy Awards: A Cheat Sheet
You may not know by now, but I’m a movie nerd. In fact, I have seen all of the films nominated for Best Picture this year at the Academy Awards. Which brings us to why we’re here: I’m going to help those of you who didn’t want to spend a million dollars at the theater last year, but still want to impress at your Oscar party guests.
Ask a Dude: (No) Love at First Sight
Dude, So my boyfriend and I have been going strong for a few months now. Here’s the one thing that really bothers me about him, though: He was not atracted to me when we first met (last year). He said he didn’t think that I was that pretty but that now he thinks I am. I can’t get over the fact that he thought I wasn’t hot. What does this mean for our relationship?

17 Celebrity Hairstyles We’ll Never Forget
I get hair cuts all the time and it never stops the presses, so why should Bieber’s new shag be talked about like it actually means anything? Or our favorite friend, Jen’s, new style (which isn’t new for anyone who actually watched ‘Friends’).
Put This on Your iPod: MC Lars’ The Graduate
This week’s artist is someone who’s totally inspired me growing up. While most people spent their college years drinking and dreaming about what they’ll be after they graduate (guilty!), MC Lars was doing something about his dreams.
In Our Makeup Bag: Shobha Brow Pencil
Brows are an oft overlooked beauty asset. Shaping your brows can completely change your face and paying attention to them can really pull your look together. Can you imagine a beautiful starlet, strolling down the red carpet, with unruly brows? Never!
This Post-Grad Life: Don’t Be So Hard On Yourself, Girl
After being shot into the real world, I picked up a dirty habit. While being thrown into something I was totally unprepared for (ehem, hey real world! It’s a pleasure!) it became nearly impossible to find any satisfaction in my life. I was so overwhelmed with emotions and goals, I became an angry, judgmental girl. And who saw the brunt of all that negativity? Me.
University of Texas Student Speaks Out Against Allowing Guns on Campus
I’ve lived in Texas for most of my life, but one thing I will never understand is the gun-happy culture that is so prevalent here. My own sister got a gun as an anniversary present from her uncle-in-law. And now our state government wants to take this love of guns one step further and allow students and professors to carry concealed handguns on public university campuses.
Summer Internship vs. Part-Time Job – Making the Most of Your Summer Break
Ask any student what the best part about school is, and you’ll most likely get the same answer – summer vacation. The carefree days of summer make all of the homework and pop quizzes bearable and give students something to look forward to during April showers.
Celebrity Chic on the Cheap: Kim Kardashian Makes Sexy Simple
I could probably wrack my brain and crank out a seriously amazing sociology paper on the phenomenon of Kim Kardashian and how she parlayed having a big butt and a sex tape into a legitimate, relatively long-lasting career, but I’d much rather talk about her banging sense of style.

Glee-cap: I’m Talking About Everybody Gettin’ Crunk, Crunk
This week’s episode caused quite a buzz (tee hee) before it even aired: entitled “Blame it On The Alcohol,” this week’s installment featured its high school-aged characters participating in illegal drinking. Which, might I add, was sorta hilarious. But that’s not the point. I understand the origin of these concerns. Glee does have a very young fan base, and surely some of its viewers are impressionable – like, “Hey! Brittany’s drinking! I want to drink, too!”
