Celebrity Tots in the Limelight

So by now many of you have heard about Suri Cruise's birthday bash. The 2-year-old celebrated in style with a $100,000 birthday party thanks to her parents Tom and Katie. Wow, I don't even know of anyone who spent that kind of cash on their wedding. Shiloh Jolie-Pitt is also turning 2, I wonder what Angelina and Brad have planned for her party?

Speaking of 2-year-olds, Matt Damon's daughter, Isabella, was finally seen in public. US Magazine captured a great picture of the famous father and daughter. She's a cutie, not sure why they kept her out of the limelight for so long.

With the latest celebrity baby boom, I decide to find out what the top searched celebrity tots were on AOL Search. Do you know which celebrities some of these tots belong to? Moses Martin's proud parents are Gwyneth Paltrow Chris Martin, Nahla Aubry's proud parents are Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubry, Kingston Rossdale's proud parents are Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale and Max Bratman's proud parents are Christina Aguilera and Jordan Bratman. I think the rest are pretty obvious.

What Is Your Favorite Soap Opera?

As a child, I remember watching 'All My Children' with my mom. I actually loved the soap opera so much that when I was in college, I would rush home from class just to catch it. What is it about all the crazy drama that keeps us glued to our television sets?

Soap operas have been around for well over 30 years. One of my girlfriends is addicted to 'As the World Turns'. She started watching the soap as a little girl, and thanks to DVRs she still watches it every day.

Since I've been out of the soap opera drama for a number of years, I decided to find out what the top searched soap operas were on AOL Search.

To my surprise not much has changed. The soap operas that were popular when I was a child are still popular today. As you can see, 'Days of Our Lives', 'General Hospital' and 'All My Children' made it into the top three. 'Fuego En La Sangre' (Fire in the Blood) is actually a Latino soap opera that has become popular over the past few months.

What is your favorite soap opera? Find out more about your favorite show by searching for it on AOL Television.

Celebrate Earth Day and Go Green!

Earth Day is a great time to remind us why it's important to consider how our everyday actions will affect the environment for years to come. There are so many simple things a person can do to help save our environment and planet.

Recycling is an easy task and can save natural resources and energy. Recycling the most common materials, such as aluminum cans, glass bottles, paper, plastic and steel/tin cans, can help protect our ozone layer, decrease pollution and decrease tree cuttings.

Driving hybrid cars results in less fuel consumption, which in turn addresses the issues of smog and global warming.

Of course making these changes alone are not enough, so I decided to find out which green products people were searching for on AOL Search. As you can see, organic products such as food, cotton, baby products and wine are on the list. Local grocery and retail stores usually stock these organic products, making them easy to obtain.

A great way to save energy by at least 75 percent is to use compact fluorescent bulbs. These work just as well as regular light bulbs but last up to 10 times longer. Other ways to go green is to use cork flooring, organic fertilizer or bamboo clothing.

Do you know of any other great tips to help save our planet? If so, please tell us about them.

Top Searched Green Products on AOL Search:

1. Hybrid Cars
2. Cork Flooring

Angie Harmon Posed Nude?

There's so much gossip and so little time -- here's a quick recap of this weekend's highlights.

Angie Harmon, from the hit TV show 'Womens Murder Club', has decided to go naked for Allure Magazine. Harmon admitted that she is a very modest person and the closest she'd ever come to public nudity was skinny-dipping with her husband on a private beach in Bora Bora. She is one of five celebs featured in the nude pictorials.

Danica Patrick won the Indy Japan 300 and became the first female to win an IndyCar race. While Pope Benedict XVI greeted worshipers at a Mass at Yankee Stadium. It was his first visit to the United States as leader of the Roman Catholic Church. Baseball players and friends mourn for the loss of former major league player John Marzano. He was found dead in his home. It is unknown whether Marzano fell down the stairs or suffered a heart attack.

Wedding bells were ringing for New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning and his college sweetheart Abby McGrew. They had a sunset ceremony at the One & Only Palmilla resort in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. Speaking of bells, Kristen Bell is starring a new movie 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall', which is getting great reviews.

'Forgetting Sarah Marshall' is a funny comedy about a man named Peter (Jason Segel) who is dumped by his girlfriend Sarah Marshall (Kristen Bell) and decides to take a trip to Hawaii to forget about his lost love. Only to find out that his lost love is vacationing at the same hotel with her current rock star boyfriend. Check out the trailer.

Do You Like Vitamins, Supplements or Both?

I woke up the other morning with a really bad sore throat. As soon as I told anyone, I started recieveing all kinds of advice. Take some zinc and vitamin C. Drink lots of hot fluid. Start taking echinacea to build up you immune system. Listening to all the advice made my throat feel better a few days later.

There are so many vitamins and supplements out there from vendors like Puritan's Pride that work just as good, if not better than OTC medication. I decided to find out what the top searched vitamins and supplements were on AOL Search.

Melatonin is at the top of our list and is used to treat insomnia. Niacin can help reduce cholesterol and folic acid can help prevent serious birth defects in pregnant women.

I was actually surprised to see ephedra on list. This dietary supplement found in diet pills stimulates the nervous system can cause high blood pressure and heart attacks. As of June 2007, the sale of ephedra-containing dietary supplements remains illegal in the United States, due to the health risks.

Do You Have A Favorite Board Game?

Once a month my friends and I get together for game night. Sounds kind of corny, but it's actually tons of fun. With so many board games to choose from these days, the fun is endless.

Last weekend we played a game called Quelf, which was actually hilarious. It's a game where you use your creativity, answer funny questions and perform ridiculous stunts. For example, one of our friends had her face wrapped in toilet paper and had to keep it on until someone rolled a six.

Wondering what board game to try out next month, I decided to see what the top searched board games are on AOL Search. To my surprise, many of the board games on the list were games I played as a child. I remember sleeping over my grandmother's house and playing Uno, Trouble and checkers. Those games were so much fun and, as you can see from our most searched list, these games are still very popular.

Other games such as Dirty Minds and Battle of the Sexes that showed up lower on the list are obviously skewed more toward the adult crowed. There are also some games that I've never heard of like Cluzzle, Blurt, and Gazootch. Have you ever played these?

Have any fun board games that you would like to share? Try searching for board games on AOL Search or check out AOL Shopping for some new board games. You can also play online versions of many popular board games at AOL Games.

Which Designer Jeans Do You Prefer?

I have to admit, I love wearing jeans. Not only are they comfortable but you can dress them up or down depending on your mood. Over the years, I (unfortunately) have become a jeans snob. With so many designer brands out there it's become much easier to find the perfect pair for my body type.

A few years ago I had a girlfriend who raved about how much she loved Seven jeans. She went on about how they were hip-slimming, butt-lifting and great-fitting. So I had to try them out for myself and I have to say she was absolutely right. These jeans extremely comfortable and they fit great, too. Since then I've also purchased jeans from Lucky Brand, Paige and Citizens of Humanity.

Lately I've had the itch to test out some new jeans. I decided to see what our top searched designer jeans are on AOL Search. I've heard True Religion jeans and Rock and Republic jeans fit well and are very comfortable. Have you heard of Not Your Daughter's jeans? They're also called "tummy tuck " jeans and claim to flatten your stomach, slim your thighs and lift your butt. (Time to hit Nordstrom.)

Is there a favorite designer jean brand that you recommend? Learn more about them by searching for designer jeans on AOL Search. Also look for your favorite brands on AOL Shopping.

What's the Latest Diet Craze?

I feel as though every week a new type of diet is making headlines. This week it's the Beckham and Holmes's seaweed and algae diet. Sounds totally gross to me, but I do have to wonder does this diet really work? And if does sign me up for some seaweed shakes!

With bikini weather around the corner I decide to check out what the top searched fad diets were on AOL Search. Some of them on the list like cookie diet, chocolate diet and peanut butter diet actually sound really good. Who wouldn't want to eat these delicious foods and lose weight?

I really had no idea what the lemonade diet, DASH diet and Paleo diet were all about so I decided to do some research. The lemonade diet (aka Master Cleanse diet) consists of drinking lemonade with hot pepper and no food. I'm sure you can lose some weight with this diet plan since you never eat anything. The DASH diet favors fruits, vegetables, whole grains and plant-based protein over meat. It can actually help lower your blood pressure. Now that sounds like a more reasonable diet plan. The Paleo diet is based on eating foods that your body was designed to eat.

Do you know of a fad diet that's not on our top searched list? If so, tell us about it! Check out AOL Body for more information on dieting or try searching for diet plans on AOL Search.
