Seth Aaron Henderson was triumphant on the season finale of “Project Runway” Thursday night.
“I can’t believe I just won ‘Project Runway,’” Henderson gushed after Heidi Klum revealed that he’d out-designed his fellow finalists Emilio Sosa and Mila Hermanovski.
“I’m ready to start a large clothing line. I’m ready to conquer the fashion industry, if you will,” he said.
Henderson wins an editorial feature in an issue of Marie Claire magazine, a cash prize of $100,000 to start his own line, an opportunity to sell the line on Bluefly.com, and a $50,000 technology suite from Hewlett-Packard to create, design, and run his business.

It’s the action, not the fruit of the action, that’s important. You have to do the right thing. It may not be in your power, may not be in your time, that there’ll be any fruit. But that doesn’t mean you stop doing the right thing. You may never know what results come from your action. But if you do nothing, there will be no result. — Mahatma Gandhi

That’s right. This glow in the dark phenomenon is growing.From glow in the dark tattoes,glow in the dark jeans and tees from Diesel, to glow in the dark lingeries from Lumino, it is getting pretty insane.
For the clubbing generation, Or the Twilight generation,both tend to live and learn more during the night. Halloween is long gone now and this adds up to this year’s Halloween must list, right next to that Chanel pumpkin (corner with the glow in the dark eyelashes).
The new glow in the dark jeans (and attire) from Diesel was treated with a special fluorescent coating making some things apparent only under UV lights.
Kim Kardashian’s stripping down to empower women to “embrace their curves.” The star of E!’s Keeping Up With The Kardashians is just one of three celebs (including Joy Bryant and Amanda de Cadenet) going nude and unairbrushed for the May issue of Harper’s Bazaar Magazine, where she opens up about how she really feels about her body for the mag’s annual “Naked Truth” edition. She do have a hot smoking body, but …. just not sure if it’s 100% natural, or there’s some nips and tucks here and there.
Scarves are a must for a dash of trendiness to your personal style.A strategically wrapped scarf is a must-have accessory. Available in virtually every price point, a lightweight scarf adds a glam touch to something as simple as a tank top and jeans or a layer of texture to a spring jacket or dress.Fashion history classes have taught us that the uniqueness of a frock or of an outfit often resides in the accessories they’re matched with.

Watching others using chopsticks can make it look so easy, but when you try it, you end up asking for a fork. Here’s how to say goodbye to that fork for good and put those chopsticks to work! I have always wanted to eat with Chopsticks, but I was too lazy / scared / discouraged to learn because everytime I tried to use them, the result were really bad. So I gave up trying.One day I was reading an article about how Chopsticks can be a really good dieting trick,it continued on saying, with Chopstick you eat more slowly and are more engaged with concentrating on your food, versus just shoveling it in. After I was done reading that particular article, I decided its about time for me to try again. My friends at work, walked me through on how to position my fingers and chopsticks to make it work. Finally tonight, I had an opportunity to put my skills into use.. We had Sushi for dinner, and I tell you, I was so impressed with the results…( be gentle ..lol… I am still in the learning process .. but I can now hold chopsticks and be able to lift food without dropping..)
The easiest way to explain how to hold chopsticks is to hold almost like holding pencil… Well, it’s not quit the same, obviously because you are holding two sticks, rather than one pencil. But if you can use a pencil, you can learn to use chopsticks.
First, rest one of the chopstick on the bottom on the thumb, at about 1 inch from the end (thick side) of the chopstick, and rest the middle of the chopstick on the side of ring finger at about 1/2 inch from the tip of the finger. This stick will remain stationary. Then hold the other chopstick with three fingers, thumb, pointing finger and the middle finger. This is the stick that moves to pick up food. Make sure the tip of both sticks meet.
Chopstick Rules
~~Do not hold the chopsticks when you are not eating. Rest them on a chopstick rest or a plate closest and directly in front of you, with the tips facing your left. Only rest the tip of the chopstick on to of chopstick rest or a plate, and the thick end should be on the table. You will do the same when you are done with the meal.
~~Do not drag a plate or bowl with your chopsticks.
~~Do not point with chopsticks or talk animatedly with chopsticks in your hand. Do not walk or run with chopsticks. (You’ll be surprised to hear how many people are injured by chopsticks!)
~~Never leave chopsticks stuck vertically into your food, especially into a bowl of rice. (At funerals, Japanese present a bowl of rice with chopsticks standing in the middle at the altar.)
I got this through email and wanted to share a little laugh with you!.
Every woman knows that there are days when all a man has to do is open his mouth and he takes his life in his hands! This is a handy guide that should be carried like a driver’s license in the wallet of every husband, boyfriend, co-worker or significant other! (Just for humor)

Is there one thing out there that you can’t live without? For me, its Chai/Tea latte from Starbucks. Starbucks uses the TAZO CHAI liquid concentrate for their famous Chai Tea Lattes. I also really like the instant Chai mix from Oregon Chai, it’s like a pack of hot cocoa, just add water and you get this yummy spicy Chai!
I even downloaded a Starbucks iPhone app where I can order my favorite drinks right at my fingertips and all I have to do is to go and pick them up.
Sometimes I get lazy to stop by Starbucks, since I have to have a cup of tea in a daily basis, my Chai recipe comes handy and its just as good as Starbucks
Ingredients
CHAI TEA ~my favorites are Tazo Organic Chai(teabags) or Oregon Chai(liquid) brands
2 1/2 cups water
1 3/4 cups milk
1/4 cup sugar( optional.. I personally prefer Truvia)
1/4 inch fresh ginger root (sliced thin)
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamon
1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoons ground nutmeg
1 teaspoons ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
If you have an Espresso machine then you can do this step first~~ make your Chai Tea, then mix with milk that’s been steamed from an Espresso machine. I love the soft foamy texture the steamed milk adds to the chai.
If you dont have an Espresso machine then use a 6-qt saucepan, heat milk to boiling.
Stir in remaining ingredients until well blended and tea and sugar are dissolved.
-Makes 5 servings (2/3 cup each)
-1 serving is 80 calories
-Enjoy it hot or iced
Pro-The Starbucks Chai has got a lot of spice to it. It’s more punchy than sweet, but still creamy and delicious. A 12oz non fat Chai Tea Latte from Starbucks is 150 calories, has no fat and has 6 grams of protein,
Cons-it has a whopping 32 grams of sugar and 33 carbs!! They don’t offer a reduced sugar or sugar free version ..
That’s right, ladies and gentlemen who loves SATC, a new trailer for “Sex and the City 2″ has landed, and I am excited about it.In the sequel to the 2008 hit film, Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker), Charlotte (Kristin Davis), Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) and Samantha (Kim Cattrall) are back to answer the question of what happens after you tie the knot. Carrie isn’t finding herself in marital bliss with Mr. Big (Chris Noth), Miranda and Charlotte are trying to navigate motherhood and Samantha is, unsurprisingly, trying to slow down the aging process.
Age ain’t nothing but a number.Dame Elizabeth Taylor may soon be walking down the aisle … for the ninth time. A source close to the Oscar-winning actress, 78, tells UsMagazine.com exclusively that Taylor recently got engaged to Jason Winters, 49, of Sterling Winters Management. Taylor- who now predominantly uses a wheelchair ,and Winters- who recently became Janet Jackson’s new manager — have yet to confirm the news.
Garcelle Beauvais-Nilon is brave enough to blasts her cheating husband Mike Nilon in a mass e-mail.Some women might go into hiding at the hint of a cheating scandal. Garcelle Beauvais-Nilon is a different kind of woman. She wants the world to know that her husband, Mike Nilon, is a cheater.
The actress from “The Jamie Foxx Show” send this e-mail to Mike Nilon’s co-workers at the CAA agency.
The e-mail’s subject is “Tiger Woods/ Jesse James / Mike Nilon” and it says, “What do they have in common… I found out today that MY husband of almost 9 yrs has been having an affair for 5 yrs with some slut in Chicago. I am devastated!!!! And I have been duped!! Our boys don’t deserve this!”
The boys in question are the couple’s 2-year-old sons Jax and Jaid.
After sending the e-mail, Beauvais-Nilon decided to stop commenting. She told US Weekly, “My focus at this time is on my kids and healing the pain. There will be no further comment.”
Mike Nilon apparently learned that you don’t mess with Garcelle. His colleagues learned it too. Way to go Sister..
