HTC One S Review: I Give It A Fly

IMG_0053Despite the fact that there's no real wow factor here, it would be entirely unfair to say that HTC's One S isn't a great phone. It is. The hardware is some of the best I've seen in a long time, Sense 4 is quite nice albeit a touch heavy for my taste, and the specs are right in line with what we're seeing on the market today. Truth be told, anyone at T-Mobile would be lucky to have one. S. (Lawl.)

Lifetime?s 7 Days Of Sex Challenge Day 1: Anything Goes

Okay here we are, day one of Lifetime?s 7 Days of Sex Challenge. Honestly if it weren?t for this challenge we would not have done anything but sleep. It has been a long week. I had a week full of DR appointments and was in the hospital for slightly high blood pressure so they wanted to do non-stress test on the baby and I. Thankfully everything turned out okay and we were sent on our way. Still it was an exhausting week to say the least. This challenge encourages a week-long timeframe to really try and revitalize and rejuvenate your relationship and I think that it is a great idea for couples, not only ones having issues. It is all about staying connected and keeping your relationship strong, the sex is just the bonus. We definitely encourage you (YES you!!!!) to take the challenge with us and see how it improves your relationship! After a long week we used a giftcard to go to dinner out! It was a treat! We typically don?t do dinner out as we are trying to save for the new baby. Additionally, we rarely go on dates. After this week, we needed it. Call in [...]

Sharp posts $1.4 billion extraordinary loss, refocuses on mobile displays

Sharp posts $1.4 billion extraordinary loss for 2011 - 2012, sees writing on wall in high definitionSharp has reported an extraordinary loss of 117.1 billion yen ($1.4 billion) for the financial year ending March 2012. The company has cited restructuring costs and inventory losses as the causes for the write-down, but also projected that its TV business would lose a further 18.7 percent of its projected sales in the current year. The company has decided to convert some of its big-screen LCD production lines into mobile LCDs as it tries to reassert its dwindling display business. It's yet more bad news after the company sold part of its LCD manufacturing business to Hon Hai, Sony withdrew from a joint venture and refused to deal with Sharp in the future, plus an 86 percent collapse in profits.

Lindsay Lohan, Kim Kardashian Join List Of Odd White House Correspondents' Guests

George Clooney, Josh Hutcherson and Sway are also on the list.

You expect celebs like George Clooney, Charlize Theron, Steven Spielberg and even MTV News' own Sway to get invites to Washington's annual night off from partisan bickering replaced with biting political jokes known as the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner. It's a tradition to mix real Hollywood with the biggest stars in politics at the gathering, which over the years has made for some truly odd place settings.

This year is no exception, as tabloid staples Kim Kardashian and Lindsay Lohan have made the cut, meaning they will be rubbing elbows with the likes of Zooey Deschanel, Paul Rudd, Stevie Wonder, "Hunger Games" star Josh Hutcherson, Mary J. Blige, "The Artist" star dog Uggie, Diane Keaton, John Legend and "Portlandia" co-stars Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein. This is actually Kardashian's second go-round, as she was a guest of Fox News in 2010, though this is the first invite for Lohan.

While the Washington Post noted that the picks tend to be a bit safer these days, Lohan and Kardashian follow in the tradition of such past in-the-headlines-right-now choices as Ozzy Osbourne in 2002 and Ellen DeGeneres in 1997. The comedian was making her first appearance in public with a girlfriend that year, when she appeared with Anne Heche shortly after coming out as a lesbian.

But because media organizations get to submit their own guest list, it makes a weird Tinseltown sense that curvy Sofia Vergara got the nod from ABC News along with "Modern Family" co-stars Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Eric Stonestreet and Julie Bowen. The Huffington Post reserved a slot for Dakota Fanning, as well as Daniel Day Lewis and "True Blood" co-stars and mates Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer, while Newsweek made room at a table for Reese Witherspoon.

Lohan and Kardashian aren't the only strange bedfellows to make the cut recently. In 2011, you might have seen such invitees as "American Pie" alum Jason Biggs hanging with Bristol Palin, snowboarder Shaun White, "Dancing with the Stars" co-host Brooke Burke, Paula Abdul and Zach Galifianakis.

The 2010 list was even weirder, ranging from Betty White and Jon Bon Jovi to Chace Crawford, Enrique Iglesias, Ashley Greene, Justin Bieber and Jessica Simpson. Not to be outdone, in 2009 you got the almost-First Vice Husband, Todd Palin, as well as former "American Idol" judge Kara DioGuardi, then-husband/wife Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore, Tyra Banks, hero pilot "Sully" Sullenberger, George Lucas, Sting, Ludacris, Alicia Keys and Natasha Bedingfield.

Jimmy Kimmel is hosting this year's show, and while Kardashian's current man, Kanye West,
 is reportedly finishing up a short film in Qatar, it doesn't sound like he'll be flying in to be by her side on Saturday night. Kardashian will be attending with her mother, Kris Jenner, as a guest of Fox News, while Fox talking head Greta Van Susteren put Lohan on the list.

A 38-Ton Custom Bulldozer Crushes Leftover Landmines [Video]

After decades of strife, occupation, and conflict, Afghanistan has been left pockmarked with an estimated ten million anti-personnel landmines in its soils. It's a bad situation. There are mines like the the Soviet PFM-1 butterfly mine—especially popular with small children, who mistake it for a toy. But an anti-mine machine from Komatsu is working across the country to help Afghans literally save life and limb. More »
