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.

With the three-ounce rule in effect for all air travelers, a mini-industry has sprung up in travel-sized bottles for all your toiletries, creams, and beauty goodies. But not everyone is so keen on the rules, especially since many airlines are now charging for checked baggage, meaning that people feel forced to carry everything in their on-board luggage.
Recently, quite a few people I know have sneaked larger items past security, despite knowing better and having misgivings.

Getting out of bed on cold days is hard enough, so when deciding what to wear I'm often tempted to throw on the warmest item in my wardrobe. Unfortunately, this isn't usually the most stylish item (think a big Winter fleece) so I'm forced to settle for something else, but I usually avoid skirts on really cold days. How about you, do you wear skirts less in the Winter?

For the past five years, Wes Anderson's wide fan base has been waiting for his first fully animated film. Would his adaption of Roald Dahl's children's book, Fantastic Mr. Fox appease the same crowd that holds Bottle Rocket and The Royal Tenenbaums near and dear to their hearts? The answer is an emphatic yes, and the best news is that you don't even have to enjoy Anderson's other work to fall in love with this film.

Zac Efron can act, people! Okay, so he's not going to win an Oscar for his performance in Me and Orson Welles, but he does take a step away from the tween territory of High School Musical and 17 Again to prove that he can hold his own among more experienced performers.
Efron stars as the "Me" in Me and Orson Welles, an over confident aspiring young actor named Richard whose only prior work includes a couple of high school productions — until he lucks into a bit part in Welles's stage production of Julius Caesar.
