LOVE it when technology gets it right.

Just read about this new computer program called “Silence of the Celebs” that will filter out any mentions of which ever celebrity you are most tired of reading about from your online news media just by entering their names.

Mind you, it’s totally not limited to celebs. Feel free to filter out any topic of choice. (So basically, we can all pretend that Sarah Palin, the entire Tea Party and the ignorant Arizona GOP don’t even exist.)

Although currently it only works on Twitter, NYTimes, CNN, Huffington Post, NYPost, Google News, Gawker, Mashable and TMZ; the creators are working on expanding it more sources as I type.

And and wait on it… it’s FREE.

Check it out HERE. You can thank me later.

starting out on the good foot…

More giveaways, more giveaway, more giveaways!!!

And even if you don’t give a damn bout that new Diddy-Dirty Money foolishness dropping tomorrow… Who couldn’t use some new Jazmine Sullivan on the iPod or MP3 player of choice to help you zone out during these frantic last minute holiday shopping days?

Exactly.

holiday page-turner giveaway…

Mitzi — Mon, 06 Dec 2010 14:08:00 +0000

And the Holiday Giveaway train continues to roll.

This week, I’m excited to gift one lucky Moments reader with an autographed copy of Raised By The Mistress: My Mother, Her Lover & Me by Jamilah B. Creekmur.

I have to tell you, I’ve enjoyed reading a lot of great books this year. But this memoir from the perspective of a child who is aware of the fact that her mom was a sidechick BEFORE it become such an acceptable way of life (looks directly at Alicia Keys) is fantastic. Written with New York Times bestselling author, Aliya S. King; Jamilah keeps it all the way real from beginning to end.

Oh and wait on it…. the book even includes chapters written by her mom and Mr. Wayne, the man her mom was intimately involved with for almost 20 years.

BLANK STARE

Trust me, even if you’re not a “reader” you’ll still get caught up in the drama of this book.

Here’s what you’ve got to do to win your own autographed copy:

Nothing make a woman feel better than when her hair is looking correct… okay, almost nothing.

Drumroll please.

And according to random.org, the winner of the MitziMoments’ Holiday Body Beautiful Giveaway is…

LISA JONES

Honey, I’m home!!!

Whew, the Lord knows I live for a fabulous vacation-especially when there is warm weather and good food involved. And while Buenos Aires was every bit of the once-in-a-lifetime blast I imagined, it feels really, really good to be back in the States.

But wait on it… in the spirit of for the holiday season, over the month of December I’ll be giving away some of my favorite goodies.

Now don’t. get. crazy. I ain’t Oprah.

But you know, it’s a lil something to say thanks for keeping up with my special brand of tomfoolery over the past year.

Anyhoo, enough of the sentimental, I love you guys crap. The first giveaway is from my latest beauty find: Karen’s Body Beautiful.

The luxurious Brooklyn based spa offers manicures, pedicures, facials, waxings and a wide array of specially tailored packages for couples, newlyweds, mothers-to-be and bridal parties. But most importantly, sells a line of hair products that are to seriously, to DIE for.

Made with all natural products, my favorites- the shampoo and conditioner- are a godsend for chicks rocking natural ‘dos and probably even better for those who have chosen the way of the lye.

Simply put, it’s the business.

But don’t take my word for it.

Instead, enter for a chance to win their signature, Keep It Soft Survival Kit. which includes the Ultimate Conditioning Shampoo, Complete Hair Conditioner, the Butter Love creme and the Sweet Ambrosia leave-in conditioner.

Good luck!
