Thanks to the Official White House Photostream, we not only get to take a visual trip inside the White House, witness the day-to-day goings-on of the administration, but we also get to see inside the Air Force One plane. We already know that The White House is filled with gadgets, but what happens when the administration takes flight? Here's what I found upon closer inspection.

I'm a huge fan of strength training with a buddy, and recently at the gym, I've been hearing a lot about forced repetitions where your weight lifting partner does more than just spot you. If you're not familiar with this term, allow me to explain. If a woman is lifting weights and she has reached her limit and can't do another repetition on her own, someone will assist her with one or more repetitions.

The inauguration may be behind us, but we're only beginning to get to know President Barack Obama's discerning palate.
In this clip from a National Geographic Channel series titled On Board Air Force One, the then-president-elect rides aboard the presidential plane for the very first time. Dinner is served on the plane, and the nation's leader barely takes a glance at the menu before proclaiming, "I'll see how you guys do a burger."

Recently I attended a 60's themed party at a friend's house. The house was decorated, the drinks were plentiful, and the guests wore costumes. Sounds like the perfect recipe for a fabulous party, right?

There are very few things that were made for each other. Peanut butter and jelly, milk and cookies, bananas and chocolate. But now, I think I've found a new pair.

Kittens in casts. Babies nudged to laugh every five seconds. Stuffed teddy bears left at killing-spree sites.

It seems so long since we've seen Jake Gyllenhaal on screen (2007 in Rendition, to be exact), so I'm glad that we're about to get a lot more of him. Next month we'll catch him in Brothers, then in the Spring all buffed up in Prince of Persia — and he won't be slowing down. Gyllenhaal is in talks to star in the sci-fi thriller Source Code.

This week's episode of The Hills was still very much wrapped up in the aftermath of Brody's party which Justin didn't show up to. Kristin tried to keep him under her control, but sneaky meetings with Audrina suggest otherwise. Meanwhile, Stephanie expressed concern over Holly's drinking habits which Heidi was forced to address.

Wow. The biggest surprise of the third season finale of Mad Men isn't actually a plot point, but how light and almost exciting it manages to be. For a show that's normally so tense and tightly wound, this week's episode has a quick pace, and at times, a sense of humor.

Like many children, my mother enrolled me in piano lessons but when I openly admitted to disliking it, she let me quit. Same went for the clarinet and skiing, both of which I did for about one week. Now that I'm older I desperately wish I could play an instrument or stand on skis, but I do understand why my mom didn't push either on me.
