The Seven Things You Need for Yhe Big Games Party Party:
If you're hosting a party this Sunday, make sure you've got everything you need BEFORE the game starts. No one wants to run out at halftime and miss Madonna lip-synching.
#1.) Enough People. There's never been a "great" Football Games party where only three people showed up. But at the same time, you also don't want a roomful of people who don't even LIKE football.

Four Ways You're Destroying the Planet Every Day without Realizing It:
If you think you're pretty responsible when it comes to saving energy and being good to the environment, think again. Here are four ways you're destroying the planet on the daily basis without even realizing it.
#1.) By Keeping Your Electronics Plugged In. Most gadgets like computers, cable boxes, and DVD players don't actually turn off. They go into "sleep mode" and keep using energy.

The Five Most Overused Phrases in Online Dating:
If you want to improve your online dating profile, you need to get rid of phrases that are unoriginal or overused. You're probably guilty of at least one of these, so listen up.
#1.) "I can't believe I'm doing this." It's not all that shocking to date online anymore, so this makes you seem a little out of it. And it suggests that you're better or different than everyone ELSE online: Because everyone you meet this way is in the same boat.
