Marino Has Love Child: The NY Post claims Dan Marino had a love child in 1995 with a CBS production assistant named Donna Savattere. A source says, “They had an affair, and she had a baby. Everything was on the down-low and secretive.”

Marino says, “This is a personal and private matter. I take full responsibility both personally and financially for my actions now as I did then. We mutually agreed to keep our arrangement private to protect all parties involved. My wife and I have been married for almost 30 years and have six children together. And we continue to be a strong and loving family.”

 

Man To Man Coverage: Scores of married women are hiring private detectives to track their husbands at the Super Bowl. Some wives are paying as much as $3,000 to have their husbands placed under 24-hour surveillance. Tickets to Rolling Stone's Super Bowl party are selling for $1,000.

 

The Blind Side: Ravens offensive tackle Michael Oher is tired of being asked about how his life was portrayed in The Blind Side. He says, "I'm tired of the movie. I'm here to play football. Football is what got me here and the movie, it wasn’t me. I always knew how to play football growing up. It was different personalities, stuff like that. Playing football is what got me to this point. It was a little different, but I’ve been through a lot in my life, some rough times. Being here in New Orleans for the Super Bowl is truly unbelievable.” Michael's adopted family, the Tuohy family, will attend the Super Bowl.

 5 Tips To Lose Weight And Keep It Off from abcnews.com

Tip 1: Ditch the Soda
It takes 3 miles brisk walking to burn off calories from 20 oz. soda. Easier to avoid soda.

Tip 2: Start Small
Make small changes you can live with and then build on that feeling of success. Make small consistent improvements to your diet. Better long-term success than radical, wholesale changes.

Tip 3: Write It Down
Keeping a food journal will help you become aware of what and when you are eating. You may be amazed at what you find. Never underestimate the power of food journaling. It’s one of the most tried and true weight loss strategies.

Tip 4: Have a Healthy Stash
Keep your pantry and refrigerator stocked with healthy food. If you get the junk food out of the house, you will have fewer opportunities to eat those empty calories. A terrific route to a healthy diet is to fill up on healthy foods, squeezing out the junk.

Tip 5: Add Movement to the Mix
While changing your diet is most important, exercise can help. For adults, key to keeping weight off is daily exercise. Look for opportunities. Take the stairs whenever you get the chance.

 

 

Honey Do List

A new study by the Juan March Institute in Spain reveals that married men are likely to have less sex if they do a lot of housework. Dr. Sabino Kornrich says, "Couples in which men participate more in housework typically done by women report having sex less frequently. Similarly, couples in which men participate more in traditionally masculine tasks - such as yard work, paying bills, and auto maintenance - report higher sexual frequency. The results suggest that adopting traditional gender roles is important to sexual desire and performance. During the month prior to the survey, men claimed to have sex an average of 5.2 times and women 5.6 times. Couples in which women did most of the cooking, cleaning and shopping had sex more often. Wives' reported satisfaction with their sex life has the same relationship to men's participation in household labor as sexual frequency. Had satisfaction with sex been low, but frequency high, it might have suggested coercion. However, we didn't find that. Men who refuse to help around the house could increase conflict in their marriage and lower their wives' marital satisfaction. Earlier research has found that women's marital satisfaction is indeed linked to men's participation in overall household labor, which encompasses tasks traditionally done by both men and women."

 

Late Lunch

A new study by Boston's Brigham and Women's Hospital reveals that eating a late lunch may make you fat. Researcher Frank Scheer says, ''Those who ate before 3pm lost 30% more weight than those who dined later. Our results indicate that late eaters displayed a slower weight-loss rate and lost significantly less weight than early eaters, suggesting that the timing of large meals could be an important factor in a weight loss program. The team divided the participants into two groups: early eaters and late eaters. During this meal, 40% of the total daily calories were consumed. Early eaters ate lunch any time before 3pm and late eaters, after 3pm. Late eaters lost significantly less weight than early eaters, and displayed a much slower rate of weight loss.''

The truth is, Kanye is scared he’ll just add to Kim’s anxiety during labor. He suggested he could stick to pacing outside the delivery room – but Kim has jokingly branded him a ‘wimp’.

Of course everybody has their own opinions about him because of what he’s done. That will always be there but he made a mistake and he’s paid his dues. He’s paid so much and I know that’s not a place he would ever want to go back to. And sometimes people need support and encouragement instead of ridicule, and criticism and bashing. I would be here if I didn’t think Chris was ready. There’s nothing I could say that could convince you right now. But we’re in a great place and I can’t ever see us going back. Even if it’s a mistake, it’s my mistake. After being tormented for so many years, being angry and dark, I’d rather just live my truth and take the backlash. I can handle it.”

It breaks her heart to be made fun of so publicly, especially because her fans are starting to join in on the backlash. But she's putting herself in this position by dating so many high-profile guys and writing about them afterward. She can't snap out of it. Taylor is putting on a brave face to the public, but she is a complete mess. Taylor has been crying nonstop.''
