No sweat: Obamas work fitness into daily routine

Many women recoil at the thought of baring their arms in sleeveless dresses or blouses, but not Michelle Obama — half of the fabulously fit new first couple. Both President-elect Barack Obama and the future first lady have exercise routines that would put most people to shame. Michelle Obama used to join a pal for 4:30 a.m. workouts, and Barack Obama usually starts his day in the gym.

The Fundamentals

Mike Moreau of HOOPSWORLD: “Now as we compare both in the current day, with LeBron in Year 6 and Kobe in Year 13, Kobe is still the better individual defender and a consistently better foul shooter. James is the better rebounder, passer and a more dominant physical presence. He has also consistently been a better teammate and better leader. Last shot to win the game? Right now, it’s The Black Mamba. No one strikes more fear at crunch time, which may be the best comparison of every when trying to

Mom Confessions

So our two boys, ages 7 and 8, have been allowed to join way too many activities this year. (Clearly their parents need more restraint.) I’m generally the type to be very careful about how much they’re in because, on top of believing that kids need to have time to be kids and just play, I also believe that it takes very little running around and trying to be responsible for things to go absolutely ape-shit crazy. So this year we’d planned it out. Both boys would be in soccer from through t

A fabooolous visit - Part deux

After a few glasses of Prosecco Petey & Asta had an ingenious idea of suggesting that every the pawrents or "two leggeds" as (*sigh*) Eric would say...insert dream sequence here...oh! anyway! Petey and Asta suggested that the bi-peds go and fetch something to eat. So off they went to some frenchy french restaurant - Mom said that she had the best steak sandwich and frites ever! I, of course, would not know because apparently she didn't even think to keep a crumb for me. Here is a picture o

Leighton Meester and Ed Westwick Both Shilling for Sneakers

In an ideal world, if Leighton Meester and Ed Westwick, the young actors who play the bad but secretly good Blair Waldorf and Chuck Bass on Gossip Girl, were to appear in an ad campaign, it would be for Marc Jacobs or Miu Miu or even Chanel; those are just the nice of labels we imagine Chuck and Blair promoting.

Me? A Writer?

The confession -- or revelation -- that one writes, always prompts some nice of response from others. Is is a hobby? A career? A worthwhile pursuit? How can one know for certain? Q) I have been writing on and off for most of my life. Nothing published, and frankly, nothing close to being published. Recent conversations with loved ones (read husband and parents) make me wonder if I am wasting my time; I spend at least three or four hours a week on my writing. How do I know if I'm just wasting my
