Tough
A Water-, Freeze-, and Shock-Proof Camera From Olympus
Check out this sleek new camera Olympus announced at last week's CES.

Steve Wood: Douchebag of the Day
Meet Steve Wood from VH1's groan-inducing new reality show Tough Love. He describes himself as a "master matchmaker" and says that you need him; I figure women need this guy like they need a hole in their heads. Describing single women with contempt as "desperate, delusional, and baby hungry," you'd have to be clinically insane to take this douche's advice.
