Serves me right for not keeping my big fat mouth shut tight. You see, this is what happens when you utter one of those taboo phrases, such as "I wonder what Paris Hilton has been up to lately" or "no, Britney will not have another meltdown". Well, I don't need to tell you, right? You already know where this is h... |

Watch out, Rihanna, step aside Leona Lewis - there's a new hot singer in town, and she's kicking a*s. I think it's a pity she only launched her first single a few days ago and she's not in the running for this year's Grammy Awards. She would have been a sure winner. But no worries, she'l... |

Heidi Montag is soooo funny. I mean really, this lady sure has one well-established New Year resolution and is holding onto it like crazy.

Bali is a fiesta for the senses. There are kilometers of dreamlike beaches (with white sand in the south and black sand in the north and west) and crystalline waters, edging coral reefs, which contrast with the exuberant green of the picturesque terraces of paddy fields, in a equatorial island of just 5,632 km˛ (2,00... |

We call them colonies, but they are in fact just huge harems. In the case of the northern fur seals, the first to invade the beaches in March are the males. Once they reach the sand, they become aggressive with each other, fighting for the best spots. They do not even go fishing into the sea, to keep the best locatio... |

Sea turtles have puzzled the scientists since…ever.
