The 'Womanizer' singer, who proudly showed off her newly toned figure at the MTV Video Music Awards last month, has been inspired by fitness guru Jane Fonda to don a Lycra leotard and help her fans get in shape.

A source said: "Britney wants to put out a series of workout videos. The idea was inspired by Britney's love of dance and how it helped her get back into shape. It seems Britney found her mom's old Fonda tapes, popped them into an old VCR machine and got a big kick out of watching them."

Although the 26-year-old star is yet to confirm her DVD venture, her record label has fuelled the rumours.

A Jive/Zomba representative said: "The idea makes perfect sense, given Britney is a singer who uses dance so much in her act."

Though I am the prize I am also the prisoner.  I am left in the middle of this mess with absolutely NOTHING to wear!  Since my slow slim down, the outfits in the Fat Pants' camp hang on me like a tent.  The Cute Clothes are still too small. 18s engulf me and 16s cut off my circulation.  2XL is like wearing a mou mou and XL is like putting a baby-tee on Jabba the Hut.  I am left with my husbands t-shirts, yoga pants, and maternity shorts as a daily wardrobe.  Not helpful for when I actually have to leave the house!

There are a few pieces of Cute Clothes in the closet that I actually can see wearing again provided I don’t let the Fat Pants continue to control me.  They reach out to me on a daily basis…encouraging me to try them on and show me that I don’t have that far to go. Obviously they are cooperating with the "Feds".  Then you have those Cute Clothes turncoats that are obviously on the Fat Pants' payroll.  They are there to prove that I will never get into them again.  They are the TENS and they must be eliminated.

One thing I have learned since developing this murder plot is to be realistic.  The TENS are a pawn in the game and to me they are expendable.  I'm not 23 anymore and I have had 2 children.  I know my body type and my family history.  It is not pessimistic to admit that size 10 is no longer in my future. Size "healthy" is.  The Fat Pants seem to think that I want to be model-esque.  I just want to be a model for my daughter and be able to once again model for my husband!

One of the fist things I noticed when I got inside the car was that it seemed to have more space than the previous models. There’s also a smart looking all black 2 level instrument panel which I really like. Once you've got the ignition on, the lower dash area lights up and the upper layer displays the digital speedometer. Really slick and very easy on the eye. The layout is smart, clean, functional and convenient. It’s also void of any distractions.

Being a family man I was looking at the 5 speed 4 door manual model with a 140bhp 1.8 liter engine. It seems as though electric windows are a standard feature now which is a nice touch. Other features and options worth a mention are electric door mirrors, front and rear air bags, side curtains, ABS and few other minor touches.

This is only a short review as I’m neither a professional critique nor a driver of all models but what I can say as an avid fan and owner of Honda Civics is that Honda has done us proud on this model.

The Hybrid, which is a class of its own, differs in a number of ways. Its engine is smaller to start with, but it has a big electric motor support it. The clever thing about the Hybrid motor is that charges itself, spending and saving fuel as the situations arise. The new Honda Civic Hybrid boasts an impressive 50 mpg and not at the expense of power either, as this clever design has the gas engine and electric motor working together in perfect harmony.

As always, Honda has brought out the Si which has a different engine to the standard models. I’ve not driven it but I’m assuming the performance of the Si will be as impressive as always.

In my opinion, Japanese cars have always been great all round value from money but for me, Honda rules. I’ve been lucky enough to have owned a total of 7 Honda cars now and haven’t encountered any serious problems for any of them.

Already have a wii fit! how about this one from Refresh Club– the maids wear frilly and girlish dresses and are available at Akihabara’s Refresh Club. If the game and the facilities at the Refresh Club must catch the attention of a feminist, most gamers will be doomed before they can plan their trip to the club and try to lose some weight while playing games. Playing with the Wii Fit maids will cost you nearly $25.

For today's Fashion Lesson, we will explore examples for the Apple, Pear, Hourglass, Straight figures, and several other variations.

These sweaters are so versatile, they will flatter a wide variety shapes.  It's all in the details.

The first sweater would look nice on an Hourglass figure.  As I have discussed in prior Fashion Lessons, a belted waist helps to accentuate the lovely curves of an Hourglass shape. I recommend you lose the monochromatic belt, and pair it with a skinny animal print one instead. 

Bows are really hot this season and if you have a small bust, the bow on this blouse would add a little volume to that area to enhance your figure.

Apples and Straight Figures, you could pull of this look as well.  All that you need to do is ditch the belt. 

If you have a large bust, I encourage you to find a different blouse.  The bow will only make you look more ample.  You want to keep the V neck line of this sweater to draw the eye down and break up the area.

You could wear a the same sort of shirt that is illustrated below with a long necklace.

(Click on images for shopping information.)

I love the shock of color with this cardigan.  This is really the sort of sweater that would look good on any shape.  Due to its hip length, it will not draw too much attention to a Pear's thighs as if she were to wear the gray example above.  I also think the shirt and tie is a really cute combination.

This sweater would compliment a busty Apple shape woman.  The deep V will draw the eye down, and the band around the hips will add proportion to a full bust.

Here is another example of a universally flattering casual sweater.  The dolman sleeve on this cardigan would also suit a woman with full arms.  You could even layer this combination one more time with a pop of color from the long sleeve tee that would enhance your complexion.

Honestly, I could have written this whole post based on the cardigan page on Anthropologie.com.  This lovely example would become an Hourglass, Straight or Pear figure. 

Especially important to a Straight figure, this sweater creates an hourglass shape with the peplum at the hips.

One other interesting point to note.  Do you see how the wide set buttons draw the eye outward, broadening the the shoulders?  Now look at the close set buttons on the lower body of the cardigan.  They help create the focal point for a smaller waist.

This is very important if you are a Pear with narrow shoulders.  You want embellishments that create a broad shoulder to put your upper body in proportion to you lower body.

Remember that when you are out shopping.  Wider set buttons, make certain areas look larger and closer set buttons make the area look smaller.

I really fancy this swing sweater for an Apple shape paired with the the blouse below.  The ruffle on the blouse helps to lengthen a Short Waist and add proportion at the same time.

A cardigan post would not be complete without a cashmere argyle sweater.  Universally flattering, you can wear it with a pair of jeans or dress it up with an equally universally flattering A-Line skirt.  Don't you just love that cute little belt?

This is my Wild Card pick.  I like the very unusual, almost Medusa looking design around the neck.  When I first saw it, I thought it would be a good choice for a small bust because all that detailing adds volume and draws the eye in that direction rather than focus on your cup size. 

Reader Heba asked for some advice earlier about examples for a small bust, hence the extra examples this week.

I felt the bell sleeves on the blouse would be a good choice for this sweater and would look great together with a pair of pants like the ones pictured for a business casual outfit at the office.    

Finally, I am a big fan of polka dots and I thought this sweater vest would be really fun under this bright red cardigan. 

You can tone it down if you are not interested in a "LOOK AT ME!" sort of image.  It could also be worn under a blazer or over a white blouse similar to the one above for a less conspicuous appearance.

If you are a Pear or Hourglass shape, consider buttoning up the sweater and wearing a skinny black belt with it to accentuate your little waist.

I hope these tips help.  If you have a suggestion for a future Fashion Lesson topic, be sure to leave me a comment!

Hi dance lovers! How are you doing’ I’m one of us, Dance is my passion, Dear friends

Let me tell you something before I start, ‘m not a writer, but whatever knowledge I gathered in my research about this unique and exceptional form of dance, I have it for you. Let’s go through the brief…

Hip-Hop is a very intense dance that builds balance, strong muscles, and great figure. There is no age limitation or restriction for learners and dancers. It is also not necessary that the instructor should be a professional dancer. Relax guys! You can even learn it online.

Let’s know the History of this popular Dance form:

Hip Hop dancing is an urban ethnic dance form that has gained popularity in recent days. It is more common than the break dance of modern days. It is a cultural movement which marked its beginning as part of the hip hop culture in the early 1900's, when the youth in and around Bronx, New York started dancing on the streets (primarily among African Americans and Latinos).

When hip hop music began to emerge, it was based around DJs who created rhythmic beats by looping breaks (small’s portions of songs emphasizing a percussive pattern) on two turntables. This was later accompanied by "rapping" (a rhythmic style of chanting). An original form of dancing, and particular styles of dress, arose among followers of this new music. These elements experienced considerable refinement and development over the course of the history of the culture.

Hip hop dance Form:

Hip hop dancing is an ideal way to express one's creativeness. It features self impressions and the dances come from the soul. The dancing represents body movements that go with the beat and rhythm of hip hop music. There is breaking, popping, locking, and free styling in hip hop dances. The jumps, breakages, and rotations in the movements are combined in such a way that the dance style becomes an informal and explosive one. The dancers should become familiar with the dancing technique.

Hip Hop helps us keep Fit:

Hip Hop dancing is considered a good exercise for those persons who perform these dances. It helps the dancers to improve flexibility, to develop body balance, and to coordinate the muscles. This dance allows the dancers to improve their own style and to remain in good body shape. It also leads the dancers to a state of spiritual wholeness. In order to achieve the maximum results for you, I suggest you always warm up before you start, just like all professional hip hop dancers do.

Photocall: NUJ to meet government over police obstruction and harassment of journalists.

Date: Tuesday 14th October 2008.

Time: 10.15am.

Place: Outside the Home Office, 2 Marsham Street, London SW1P 4DF. (Map)

Jeremy Dear the General Secretary of the National Union of Journalists (NUJ) will be meeting the Minister of State for Security, Counter-Terrorism, Crime and Policing Tony McNulty MP on Tuesday 14th October 2008 at the Home Office at 10.30am.

The meeting is to discuss the NUJ’s concerns about the increasing use of anti-terrorism legislation to undermine press freedoms and obstruct journalistic work.

Two specific issues are on the agenda:

1. The Shiv Malik case and the use of production orders – Shiv Malik was ordered to hand the police source material relating to a book he had been writing on terrorism.   Greater Manchester Police had originally obtained an order that would have seriously undermined the ability of journalists to persuade contacts to speak out.

A judicial review, which was supported financially by the NUJ and Times Newspapers, ruled that the original order was too broad in its scope.  Under a revised order, Shiv Malik had to hand over some of his source material, but under far more defined terms and in a way that will enable him to protect confidential sources.

Although this case has sent a clear signal to the police that they can’t use broad production orders against journalists in the hope of dredging up useful information, the NUJ is still concerned that the law fails to give journalists sufficient protections.

2. Police surveillance, obstruction and harassment of working journalists who regularly cover protests – the NUJ has a comprehensive dossier of numerous complaints from media workers who have experiences of the police going beyond their powers in attempting to restrict the ability of journalists to do their work.

The dossier also includes evidence of harassment and intimidation by the Metropolitan Police’s Forward Intelligence Team. There are also examples of journalists being threatened with arrest, because they have refused to stop taking photos and in other cases photographers have had their equipment seized. Many NUJ members have reported being physically and mentally intimidated by the police and some cases have included actual physical violence.  Examples from the dossier will be presented to the minister at the meeting.

Jeremy Dear will be available for interviews before and after the meeting. Contact the NUJ's Campaigns and Communications officer Stephen Pearse on 0207 843 6380 if you need more information.

Please note: This is not a protest but a photocall.

Well, in the interest of equality, she gets a little payback on national TV.

And just in case you don't remember what that video was like, here it is again.

Ví um Vt do Honda Fit na net e resolvi postar.

 Remetendo totalmente à um universo "Playstation", enfatiza os benefícios do Novo Honda Fit possuir 6 Air bags. Vale a pena conferir.

Let's take for example the first episode of the current season.  Tiny little Michelle seems physically able while Gillian is not.  Michelle clearly is unhappy to be on this tribe and is negative and a little rough with others.  Gillian is clearly super positive and also grating on others' nerves.  They both don't know how to shut their mouths, and the team ends up voting Michelle off first.

My thoughts on Survivor has always been - vote off the physically weak first.  ALL the challenges in the beginning are physical, and having a weaker tribe will only return you to a vote at night.  The challenges at the beginning can have a mental component, but the make it or break it parts are always physical.  Have these contestents been watching?  You can consider voting others (whether a threat, or grating, etc) only if the teams are well matched, otherwise, your team will never make it to the merge and get out of it intact.  The trick of course, is figuring out when that is and I certainly don't have the answer.

I'm always stunned at how quickly, they vote off the physically fit team-mates, even when they desparately need them to help win team immunity.  Perhaps the issue is one of leadership - although you'd rather get rid of Gillian and you've stated your case, you really can't keep harping on it, else you'll move up the ranks to be the next one out and ticking off your team-mates is a surefire way to get booted.

So, what's the moral of the story?  It's not about being fit vs being happy or anything else - the way to survive is by getting along with others.  DIdn't we learn that in Kindergarten?

Bowling is my fav. I have to buy the Wii fit also. It comes with a yoga mat etc. If you cant make it to the gym, i recommend investing one. I'm not saying its a substitute for the gym, BUT for those who are limited on time make the purchase. It is certainly NOT only for kids. GOOD JOB NINTENDO!

oooeeii, i feel it.

Note: keep a bottle of water and hand towel ready.
