Duggar Mom Makeover

Duggar Mom Makeover, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, stars in the TLC’s “19 Kids and Counting.” The star of TLC’s TV series “19 Kids and Counting,” Michelle Duggar got a makeover – the first in about 40 years according to her friend and stylist Cindy. It was her 46th birthday and her kids wanted to surprise her on camera. The revamp included chopping off eight inches of her curly mullets and straightening her hair.

As it turned out, Michelle could live with chopped mullets, but the straightened hair ultimately failed to impress the mother of 19. She returned to her curly style right afterward. “I thought, “This is what I look like when I get out of the shower!” Michelle said of the sleek cut, which her daughters said made her look “amazing”.

Jim Bob, the husband and head of the Duggar clan, also expressed disappointment afterward.

“I do like it longer,” he said, repeating it again and again.

The family, nonetheless, remained supportive.

Michelle Duggar’s mom makeover comes during a busy time for the family, though, with 19 children, there are likely few quiet moments. Michelle has campaigned for controversial Senate candidate Todd Akin, Jezebel noted, and has suggested that there could one day be a 20th addition to the family.

Earlier this year she told Today‘s Savannah Guthrie that she and husband Jim Bob are thinking about trying for more children.

“Not that I know of. We would love to, but we don’t today,” Michelle told Guthrie when asked if they had any big news to share.

The Duggars are a deeply religious family and don’t believe in birth control; they became famous after a special on TLC featured the ins and outs of their daily lives, and eventually landed their own show on the network called “19 Kids And Counting”. Michelle prefers to say she is mom to 21 children: “nineteen here, and two in heaven” after two miscarriages. The devoted mother crafted a touching “audio letter” to those children, which she posted on the family’s website.

Leah Messer Pregnant

Leah Messer Pregnant, Baby #3 is on its way for Leah Messer — and she’s already showing! The “Teen Mom 2” star announced her pregnancy last week and wasted no time debuting her baby bump to the world.

Messer, 20, took 2-year-old twin daughters Ali and Aleeah to the park near her home in West Virginia, where she showed off her growing belly in a brown t-shirt.

It’s crazy how big her little girls have gotten!

This will be the first child for Leah and new husband Jeremy Calvert, who tied the knot in April. She reportedly suffered a miscarriage with the couple’s first pregnancy back in January.

Leah’s two girls are from her relationship with ex-husband Corey Simms.

Michelle Duggar Makeover

Michelle Duggar Makeover, ’19 Kids & Counting’: Michelle Duggar Gets A Makeover Surprise For Her Birthday, For Michelle Duggar’s 46th birthday, her kids had a huge and unexpected surprise for her on “19 Kids & Counting.” They brought in her childhood friend Cindy to help give their mom a makeover. Cindy suspected it had probably been 40 years since Michelle had tried a new look.

The makeover saw Michelle lose eight inches of hair, which she said was the most she had ever cut off at one time. And, at least temporarily, her curls were straightened. It was definitely a whole new style for Michelle, but her kids thought she looked great.

Jim Bob, on the other hand? “I do like it longer,” he said, repeating it for emphasis.

Michelle sported the new look to her birthday celebration, but then returned to her usual curly look. That along with Jim Bob’s comment makes it seem pretty likely that she’ll let it grow back into the style she’d sported for the past four decades.

PECO Power Outages

PECO Power Outages, Governor Tom Corbett chose to visit Dresher, Montgomery County – the site where power line repair crews are working to restore service. Out of state power crews are working 12-hour shifts to get PECO customers back on line.

“These are not easy things. You can plan for them but then you have to react. Planning has been going on and has helped us tremendosusly and you learn from it,” said Gov. Corbett.

Dresher resident Lora Ball, her family and their pets are surviving the large scale power outage with relative ease.

They have a gas fire place, and plenty of capacity to keep perishables.

“Yesterday I made a trip to Sam’s Club and picked up 15 bags of ice. I stacked the ice in the refridgerator and freezer but it’s starting to melt at this point,” said Ball.

The Ball family has to go to a relative’s house to shower in hot water as they wait for their power to come back on.

However, they know they are not suffering like so many others in the flood zones.

“We have it easy. It’s the other people we feel sorry for , the people in Atlantic City and other shore points,” said Ball.

PECO, reporting the largest share of outages in the state, has said it may take a week to restore everything.

Michael Moore Obama Ad

Michael Moore Obama Ad, Michael Moore Obama Ad Makes Lena Dunham First Time Ad Look Oscar Worthy, I’ll watch Lena Dunham’s “first time voting/first time sex” ad for Obama 50 times before I’ll re-watch Michael Moore’s nauseating effort to keep himself and MoveOn.org relevant. Moore manages to exploit the 80-and-over crowd while offending just about everyone else in one of the worst political ads ever made. I wish I could bleach my eyes and unhear this ad.

First, it’s the 97-year old woman threatening to burn this “motherf***** down.” Once everyone’s slapping their knees laughing at her, the 75-year old lady says she’ll “c*** punch” Romney in the “nut sack” if he wins. Just in case people don’t find those two ladies hilarious enough, an 85-year old man guarantees that even after he’s dead, he and his deceased pals will keep a close eye on Romney voters having sex, especially with relatives.

Many years ago, I saw Michael Moore’s movie, Roger & Me. I laughed at this movie. I thought he embarrassed the evil corporate overlord of General Motors, Roger Smith. I was surprised to see someone ambush someone like that, and I was naturally sympathetic to the people in Flint, MI who were out of work.

Of course many things in the movie were exaggerated, untrue, or twisted out of proportion. I didn’t know this at the time. I was in Moore’s demographic. But Roger & Me is to Moore’s later work like Fahrenheit 911 (disavowed by Ray Bradbury) as a small McDonald’s hamburger is to a double Wendy’s Baconator.

I thought Moore had hit rock bottom when he showed up with other “celebrities” to exploit the Occupy Wall Street protests last fall. His efforts to lead cheers and protests looked dated, leaden and lame. Then Victor Davis Hanson commented that Moore was seldom seen in live interviews because he was so ill-educated and ill-informed that he “couldn’t complete a sentence.”

Hanson mocked the low-testosterone, wheezy Moore patois. “You know, man, we’re just being exploited, man, like we’re the 99 percent and they’re the 1 percent, man.”
