305 Honeys: Former Miami Dolphin Cheerleaders to compete on Amazing Race: February 15, 2009
Written By DRO | Posted In Honeys (Girls), Media Watch
Thursday January 29th 2009, 10:00 am

Cara and Jaime met four years ago while trying out for the Miami Dolphins cheerleading squad. The two made an instant connection and have been friends ever since. Cara is planning to attend law school and Jaime is a former police officer.

Cara, a graduate of UCLA, is currently working for a non-profit fundraising organization benefiting individuals with mental disabilities. She prides herself upon being a loyal and devoted friend. Cara even deferred attending her first year of law school just to support Jaime’s dream to run in this Race around the world. Cara is a true thespian who enjoys dancing and singing. She describes herself as compassionate, intelligent and outgoing.

Jaime comes from a family of police officers. Following in her mother and father’s footsteps, she graduated from the police academy and donned the uniform for a few years. Jaime is an avid animal lover and volunteers at a non profit no kill shelter for dogs. She was also a cheerleader for the Miami Dolphins for six years and was chosen to represent the squad at the 2007 Pro Bowl. Jaime enjoys reading and traveling and describes herself as adventurous, passionate and witty. Cara’s biggest pet peeve about Jaime is that she tends to be stubborn and a bit of a control freak, while Jaime claims that Cara is too nice and needs to stop worrying about keeping the peace. Both Jaime and Cara have a highly competitive nature and a need to win.

Don’t put it past these two to use their good looks to their advantage for a shot at the million dollars and the chance to become the first ever all female team to win the Race.

Cara Rosenthal (26); Jaime Edmondson (29)
Hometown: Boca Raton, Fla./Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.
Occupation: Cara (Law Student); Jaime (Former Police Officer)
Relationship: Former NFL Cheerleaders

The Obama Action Figure – $14?
Written By DRO | Posted In Toys / Urban Vinyl
Wednesday January 28th 2009, 10:40 pm

Made by Jailbreak Toys, here’s the unofficially official Obama Action Figure. It may be a bit too far with this whole Obama craze, but either way, $14.99 and its all yours. Click here to purchase via WizardSleeveToys. And read the product description below:

Like countless others out there, we were inspired by the meteoric rise of Barack Obama and his campaign. In a time when America so desperately needed a hero, along came a man who showed us a brand new vision of what America and the world could be in the 21st century. In many ways, Obama is the closest thing we’ve ever seen to a superhero… someone who has literally inspired millions of people simultaneously to step past fear, to be brave enough to hope and to go past cynicism and imagine what we could be if we were at our best. That’s the stuff of legend! And we wanted to pitch in.

In that spirit we created the Obama Action Figure because every superhero should have one.

I saw Mauikai perform the other night at PS14 during “Heart & Sole 2″. She really has a great presence as a singer and as an emcee. She even had a little crowd interaction going on during her song “Negative Space” (***I think that was the title***). But yeah, as soon as she was done performing, I had to buy one of her CD’s to check out some of her recorded material. Below is one of the songs called “Love Of You” from her Beyond The Road EP.
