Sheree has grand plans for her own dream house, however the pieces aren’t coming together so smoothly.

If you read this blog regularly you know that I'm a huge fan of anything put in slow-motion (like a cupcake cannon for example), so when I was poking around on CBSNews.com's The Feed I was happy to find two new clips for me to creepily enjoy while watching alone.
The first clip shows up what happens when you drop a slinky not down a flight of stairs, but straight down. The slow-motion action is very interesting. Check it out:
The second clip is far less scientific, but still very entertaining to watch. Check out what happens when you throw a water balloon in someone's face and it fails to pop.
I hope your life was improved by watching these clips. You're welcome.
Kelly Clarkson just released the video for her song "Mr. Know-It-All," the first single off her latest album Stronger (out October 24, 2011.) Check it out!
Any day we get a new song or video from Kelly Clarkson is a good day, but "Mr. Know-It-All" is not one of my favorites from Miss Independent. The song's good, and Kelly's voice is amazing as always, but to me the song and video just underwhelm. The tune slowly builds, but never really takes off.
Kelly looks beautiful, too, but does anyone else think she's secretly getting the Adele treatment? She's always shot from very close up or very far away. Or she's sitting down. Just an observation.
Side note! iTunes is offering Kelly Clarkson's first four albums at a bundled price! You can download Kelly Clarkson: The Collection (50 songs!) for only $19.99
Kelly Clarkson is amazing, so I hope we get to hear more jams when Stronger is released on October 24. What do you think of the video for "Mr. Know-It-All?" Leave a comment!
We all know that YouTube is composed of 95% cat videos, 4% of random crap from users (like vlogs about ANTM, for example) and about 1% actual helpful information.
A few weeks ago when shooting one a segment for Likes or Yikes? I needed to know how to pronounce the designer Lanvin. I thought I knew how to say it, but I couldn't get anyone in the office around me to confirm that I was correct. After some quick research online my coworker, Michele, stumbled upon the YouTube channel Pronunciation Book, which gives simple, spoken pronunciations for common words that may be a little confusing to say. Luckily for me, Lanvin was one of the words!
Were you saying it correctly? I mean, do you ever actually need to say this word aloud in your everyday life?
Four of the top six most-viewed videos on the channel are beauty/fashion related that may be tricky to the English-speaking individual, like Givenchy, L'Occitane and Hermes. Also up at the top is the berry acai, and the name of pop star Ke$ha, whose dollar sign may confuse those learning English for the first time (or anyone with a brain.)
But speaker, beware! There is also a spoof channel out there called Pronunciation Manual which gives incorrect -- albeit humorous -- pronunciations of commonly misspoken words. Try Onomatopoeia for example:
