5 Foods for Healthier Skin (by Leslie Baumann, M.D.)

1. Fish: Fatty fish like salmon, tilapia, and cod are rich in omega-3 fatty acids. And that's a good thing, because our bodies cannot produce those essential lipids naturally. By adding omega-3s to your diet, though, you can bolster your skin barrier - that is, the layer of lipids that holds onto moisture and keeps irritants out.
2. Green Tea: It's inexpensive, easy to add to your routine, and one of the best-researched and most powerful antioxidants around. That's why green tea is my go-to antioxidant: I drink at least three cups a day to fight aging and inflammation. Some studies even suggest that the antioxidants in green tea reduce one's risk of skin cancer. So put down that soda and start drinking your way to healthier skin!
3. Broccoli: Rich in vitamins A, C, and K (among many other nutrients), this veggie does more than its fair share of nutritional work. Vitamin A decreases oil production, vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant, and vitamin K can help prevent bruises. So whatever ails you, this green wonderfood might be just what the doctor ordered.
4. Safflower or Sunflower Oil: Omega-3s get a lot more talk, but omega-6 fatty acids - like the linoleic acid in these two oils - are also important for healthy skin. Like omega-3s, they help prevent dry skin and inflammation; they're also essential for the formation of prostaglandins, hormones that keep all the cells of the body functioning well.
5. Almonds: When it comes to boosting skin's defenses against aging, inflammation, and even skin cancer, antioxidants are so important that I'm going to add another to my list: A handful of almonds every day boosts your levels of vitamin E, one of the most important antioxidants for skin health. Studies also suggest that consuming vitamin E orally can increase the levels of this moisturizing vitamin on your skin's surface - great news for anyone prone to dry skin.

Ok seriously i might try this kinda stuff. Because afterall who wants to looks like a 90 year old man at 30 or 40, right?

Ok ladies, we covered you guys wel, correct more Wingnut research about what MEN want on V-day? Seruiously this might give you some ideas from my hear earned internet research and a tad bit of me thrown in to make things fair right? I found this from the YAHOO people, they rock!

With Valentine's Day coming up, it seems like all you hear about is what women want from men on the "hearty" day. But what about what men want? I found this article from Yahoo Personals that might be of help called, "7 Things Men Really Find Romantic:"

1. Dress Up for Him - Consider dressing for his tastes and not just yours once in a while, take him shopping and have him choose outfits he would like to see you in. Remember, you're doing this for him, not for you.
2. Initiate Physical Affection - Whether you're playing footsie under the table or placing a hand on our shoulders while scooting behind our chairs, men find the touch of the woman they love unbelievably reassuring. In our treasured nonverbal language, it translates as: "I accept you... I love you... We're a team."
3. Give Him a Night Out with the Boys -- No Strings Attached It may seem odd to you that a romantic gesture might not involve you at all. But dogs run with dogs, wolves run with wolves, and every so often, guys just have to break away and run with the guys (drooling and howling optional).
4. Tell Him What a Big, Strong Guy He Is - We men are famously incompetent at expressing ourselves verbally... but that doesn't mean we don't appreciate hearing a little praise now and then. In particular, we draw a lot of our identity from our maleness. Nurturing our big-ape fantasies -- me Tarzan, you Jane -- lets us know you value us as males, which is somehow important to the continued production of testosterone.
5. Score Him a Pair of Tickets to the Big Game - Which would you rather receive from your mate: a weekend at a spa or a new set of cookware? The spa is by far the more romantic gift, if only because he doesn't stand to gain anything from it. Gifts that don't benefit the giver are somehow purer because they demonstrate you care only about making your partner happy. So when you're thinking about gifts, try not to think about what you'd like to get him, but what he'd like to receive.
6. Show Interest in His Outside Life - We live in a fast-paced world, and we all know it's easy enough to get wrapped up in our own routines. But finding ways to let a man know you care about all aspects of his life, not just the parts he shares with you, is a great way to show you love the whole man.
7. Tell Him a Secret - Men want to be soul mates, too. Telling him a secret -- symbolically letting him deeper inside you -- demonstrates total trust in him and faith in your relationship. Because you're making yourself vulnerable, it's an incredible bonding experience.

NEWS abused, by WINGNUT

Wal-Mart announced Tuesday it's dropping 800 jobs. So at Wal-Mart, prices are dropping like price-checkers.

Jessica Simpsons is having trouble remembering the words to her songs. Her boyfriend Tony Romo said, "How can you forget the words to songs when you can remember every ingredient on a box of Twinkies?"

I tell ya', the economy is bad. Lay's Potato Chips is making bags with just one chip.

Did you see that U.S. Airways Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger was interviewed for a full hour on 60 Minutes? Actually, it only lasted 15 minutes. The interview was delayed 45 minutes for de-icing.

During his Monday night press conference, President Barack Obama told Americans he didn't come into office "ginned up to spend $800 billion dollars." Apparently, Obama only gets ginned up when he selects vice presidents and makes cabinet appointments.

On Monday, the Senate has moved the stimulus bill closer to a final vote with news reports saying it "squeaked by" with a preliminary vote of 61 "yeas," to 36 Republican "nays." 61 to 36 is squeaking by? I don't know about you...but when the Clippers are down 61-36 at halftime, I go to bed.

As if eight years of failed George Bush strategies weren't enough, Congressional Republicans are still pushing the exact same ideas in opposition to Obama's stimulus plan. It's like last week when ABC finally cancelled "According to Jim," but you still have to deal with it for years in syndication...

Miley Cyrus has issued a second apology for racially insensitive photographs that showed her mocking Asians by intentionally slanting her eyes with her fingers. Asian groups said Miley's first attempt at contrition, "I apologize from the bottom of my achy-breaky heart," sounded a little disingenuous.

A coffee cup used by Tom Cruise in the movie "Valkyrie" is being auctioned in Brazil with a minimum price set at $2,200. It's considered the most expensive coffee cup in the world that wasn't sold by Starbucks.

It's getting more obvious each day how different an Obama/Biden administration is from what a McCain/Palin one might have been. For instance, with Obama/Biden, Elkhart is a town hall meeting in Indiana. With McCain/Palin, "Elkhart" is a recipe.

In Elkhart, Indiana, President Obama held the first genuine presidential town hall meeting in eight years. All of President Bush's were "town-hall-style" meetings, with pre-screened guests, and pre-screened questions. The only time George Bush ever heard people who disagreed with him was when he was tapping our phones.

Senator John McCain made his 68th appearance on the CBS Sunday show, "Face the Nation" this week. I believe the only CBS Sunday show he's appeared on more was "Ed Sullivan."

Speaking from the Senate floor this week, Joe Lieberman said, "Tonight, we're going to do it." For the last time, Joe... We don't like you in that way.

Val Kilmer says he's seriously thinking about running to replace Bill Richardson as Governor of New Mexico. Have you seen photos of Val Kilmer lately? He certainly meets the weight requirement...

In Canada, a 60-year-old woman has given birth to twins. The good news is, in Canada breast feeding in public is legal. The bad news is... waist feeding isn't.

HA HA sorry i crack myself up soemtimes.....
