NFL Draft 2011: The 10 Best 7th Round Picks in NFL History | Bleacher Report: "While the glamor and attention largely rests on the first few rounds of the draft, the final round of the draft is often forgotten in pre-draft speculation. While there is good reason to pay more attention to the earlier rounds than the later ones, we must not completely discount the later rounds.
While the sexy picks are in the first and second rounds, the most impressive picks for NFL executives are the low picks that outshine everybody picked ahead of them. To get a star at that low cost is incredible for a team, and it's always fun for the fans to see players rise above their expectations.
As the second half of the draft approaches, let's take a look at the 10 of the biggest steals in the 7th round."

The Top 10 Pet-Owner Mistakes | Real Simple
The Top 10 Pet-Owner Mistakes | Real Simple: "Why this is a mistake: That doggie in the window may be darling, but he might not be the right fit for your family or lifestyle.
How to avoid it: Fully inform yourself before you bring home a pet. Every dog or cat has its own needs, some of which are specific to the breed. Terriers tend to dig; Abyssinians explore and climb. If there’s a breed that interests you, read up on it (try the website of the American Kennel Club, at akc.org, or the Cat Fanciers Association, at cfainc.org), talk to owners, and get to know someone else’s Border collie or Persian. That said, not every dog or cat is typical of its breed, so “ask about the pet’s history, health, and temperament,” says Stephanie Shain, a director at the Humane Society of the United States. When dealing with a breeder, you should be shown where the pet was raised and meet his parents."

HowStuffWorks "Top 10 Jobs for Foodies": "Foodies -- people who not only love to eat, but are infinitely interested in all things edible -- come from all corners of the globe and all walks of life. In fact, foodie-ism is one of the world's great equalizers, because it allows socially, culturally and economically diverse people to meet on equal footing as they appreciate the merits of various culinary offerings, from fine wine and ripe cheese to taco-truck carnitas. Want to debate about the perfect peach or learn to identify the dominant cheese in a quattro formaggi in less than five seconds? A foodie can probably help you out."
"10 Tips for Debt-free Life"
HowStuffWorks "10 Tips for Debt-free Life": "Can you imagine having no debt? What kinds of decisions come with each paycheck when you owe nothing? Your savings account is bursting at the seams, so you can add some more to the world travel budget. But wait, that budget is set for two years of travel already. Your time volunteering and visiting the orphanage you helped fund in Haiti will happen when the kids are on school break, so maybe it's time to put a paycheck or two into the business you've always wanted to start. That could even add money to your money and set up the family for when you're gone. No worries."

mental_floss Blog » The Quick 10: 10 Royal Wedding Presents to Avoid: "Well, the Royal Wedding is upon us. It’s already being called “The Wedding of the Century,” which seems a bit premature to me, but I suppose “Wedding of the First 11 Years of the Century” isn’t nearly as catchy. It’s not just the tabloids that have been cashing in on Will and Kate’s upcoming nuptials, though. It seems like nearly every company has a product tie-in related to the Royal Wedding. From cat food to condoms, here are a few of the stranger ones."

Now, while I can’t think of many adornments that would actually send a guy running from a woman’s bedroom, I thought it’d be appropriate to come up with a list of items that would certainly incur some judgment (at least as much as Chiara hurled upon the poor men who dare like Gilmore Girls).

Although most Russian critics panned the novel on its publication as a “trifling romance of high life,” Fyodor Dostoevsky declared it to be “flawless as a work of art.” Tolstoy’s style in Anna Karenina is considered by many critics to be transitional, forming a bridge between the realist and modernist novel"
