Do You Point at Your Pets When Speaking?
I have a friend whose stepfather freaked out when I once pointed at their pooch. I was telling the dog to sit, and the pointing came naturally. I never really understood why he didn't want me to point, and honestly it was an instant reflex, but his reaction stuck with me all these years.Now I'm self-conscious about raising my finger – do you do it, too?

Out and About: Connecticut's Bushy Point Beach
Before we start a new state tomorrow, I couldn't forget to finish up with Connecticut!

Decorati and PointClickHome Team Up to Sell Décor
Decorati, the online interior design community featuring luxury home furnishings and services, has teamed up with PointClickHome, web portal for the shelter magazines Elle Decor and Metropolitan Home, to launch a new showroom product finder on the magazines' sites in July. Design Finder, as it will be called, essentially will allow visitors to PointClickHome to search and shop Decorati's collection of home furnishings and browse photos of real rooms with those products, as well as read articles uploaded by top interior designers. There's clearly a lot of synergy between the two properties in terms of luxury interior design, so it makes sense that they'd partner up.
Avoid Menu Items That Take You to Your Bliss Point
The "once you pop, you can't stop" Pringles campaign seemed kind of cute, but the catch phrase actually embodied truth in advertising. Former FDA commissioner David A. Kessler says some foods are scientifically engineered with particular combinations of salt, sugar, and fat that ultimately take you to your "bliss point" and keep you reaching for more.
The Vampire Diaries "The Turning Point": The Good, The Bad and The Bloody
I was already bummed knowing this was the last week of new episodes of The Vampire Diaries until January; and now, having seen it, I'm freaking out a little bit. I knew there was going to be an epic cliffhanger, I just didn't know how epic!
With new vampires, violence and passion come "The Turning Point" — a title that would apply to many things that happened this week.
Find the Distance Between Two Points With a Google Mashup
When you use Google Maps, the distance you're getting from point A to B is in driving, walking, or public transportation terms. But, if you just need to find the distance between two points on a map, then check out this cool Google Map mashup: Distance From To. It works just like Google Maps where you put in your starting and ending point, and gives you exact distance in kilometers and miles, but leaves out all that messy info like turn-by-turn directions and traffic.

Trend Alert: Pointed Toe Flats
You went gaga over the lovely pointed toe pumps I featured not too long ago. So my question is: do pointed toe flats have the same effect? When I look at these I see ladylike, flirty and sophisticated.
Trend Alert: Pointed Toe Pumps
Just when I had really embraced round toe pumps, the pointed toe comes back on the scene. While there are some celebs who will always swear by pointed toe pumps — SJP and Cameron Diaz come to mind — there are really so many choices out there. I think the girlie girl in me gravitates towards the round toe, while the bad girl is seduced by the fierce pointy toe.
