6pm.com - Biggest Deals on Shoes

Thu, 20 Nov 2008 17:20:34 GMT

The New York Times has an article on how many online retail sites are heavily discounting their prices lately. They give us a really good tip about Zappos, the shoe retailer, and how we can find their shoes way cheaper at 6pm.com.

To preserve the sanctity of their brands and some level of pricing control, some Web companies are promoting discount sites separately from their main brands. Zappos.com, a shoe retailer based in Henderson, Nev., never runs promotions on its site. Instead, it quietly moves shoes that do not sell in six months to 6pm.com, a clearance site it acquired last year, but runs separately. This month, the company is buying mor

Cetaphil Cleanser for Normal to Oily Skin

Mon, 17 Nov 2008 18:52:37 GMT
Cetaphil Cleanser is one of those products that many people are crazy about, because it does an amazing job of deep cleansing the skin and removing makeup without being too harsh on your face.

Wrinkle Filler Risks

Mon, 17 Nov 2008 16:07:58 GMT

The FDA is meeting with a panel of outside experts tomorrow to see if additional warnings should be placed on dermal filler labels.

They've heard complaints from about 930 people who used some type of dermal filler in the past six years. Considering that last year alone about 1.4 million people received injections, this seems to be a relatively small number of negative health reports. But it's not clear what percentage of health complications end up reporting to the FDA.

"Among the reports, 19 were from people admitted to the emergency room for severe allergic reactions, 638 patients required treatment with medication, which included steroids, antihistamines and oral antibiotics. Also, 94 patients required surgical intervention (opening the abscesses, excision of nodules and biopsy of lesions), which included 44 that had also received drug therapy. The other reports did not include specific treatments for conditions."

Will EA Sports Active Outsell the Wii Fit?

Thu, 13 Nov 2008 18:16:42 GMT

Electronic Arts is going to be competing directly with the very popular Wii Fit interactive fitness game soon. This spring they're releasing the EA Sports Active which is geared especially for busy women at home. For less than the price of a gym membership (at $59.99) this exercise software takes a more Western cardiovascular approach to exercise compared to the Wii Fit which is more geared to yoga and the Eastern emphasis on balance. The EA version will not require a Balance Board.

The Wii Fit has already sold almost 9 million copies in only 9 months. One needs to buy a Nintendo console before purchasing either of these two exercise 'games'.
