In the article, Dr. Farley refers to the “Type T Personality” — the T stands for Thrill. He makes the argument that we elect the politicians we do because we’re drawn to their bold ideas, their intensity, their charisma. But those same qualities that may make them a good politician (we don’t really know, because there hasn’t been a lot of research done in this area yet), also may put them at greater risk for engaging in unethical relationship behavior, such as cheating on their spouse. Politicians, like Hollywood celebrities, are also con...

Plus, listening to a good, calming voice is an instant stress-reliever. Remember Kind Coma: Alec Baldwin, Deepak Chopra, and 3 Other Soothing Voices to Relax Your Mind, Body, and Spirit? Well, today we’re back with another edition that solely focuses on the dulcet tones of five yoga instructor pipes. It’s worth noting that I don’t actually use these instructional yoga videos as part of my practice. (I go to various yoga studios for that.)

And in a lot of cases that’s definitely true. There are exceptions, however: Slavery, the Holocaust, the Columbine shootings, the Challenger Space Shuttle disaster, the Oklahoma City Bombing, Hurricane Katrina, 9/11, and last year’s earthquake in Haiti, just to name a few. But there’s also another sacred rule of comedy to abide by: Too soon. And earlier this week, Gilbert Gottfried seriously violated that unwritten law in the unhealthiest way possible. A few days ago, the comedian was canned by the Aflac insurance company (he’s the distinctive voice of that annoying duck on TV and radio) for Tweeting off-color and insensitive jokes about the recent earthquake and tsunami in Japan.

Studies show laughter, which lowers the heart rate, whittles the waistline, and gives the lungs a hearty workout, may be even healthier for the body than today’s trendiest forms of exercise. Enrollment is surging at improv classes and circus schools, and a growing number of Americans are also joining laughter clubs, where they learn to chuckle their hellos and goodbyes, mime their way through complicated jokes, and invent songs made of “ho-ho-ho” and ‘ha-ha-ha’ sounds.

Well, a few years ago, Bacon decided to capitalize on his Six Degrees mega-popularity and found SixDegrees.org, a social networking site that’s all about finding charitable nonprofits (more than one million of them), promoting the ones you already care about, and donating to help support them. (You can even find out which causes are near-and-dear to celebrities’ hearts. Woot.) Oh, and Kevin’s wife, Kyra, just won an Emmy. Congrats.

And, while Jaws can’t speak for himself, we bet he and his relatives are pretty interested in keeping the ocean clean. That’s why Discovery has teamed up with artists to create and auction off shark-themed skateboards for charity. Proceeds go to Oceana, a conservation group that strives to stop ocean pollution, promote responsible fishing, and protect marine wildlife. (We’re gonna need a bigger boat.)

She hopes to direct attention to all those who have helped or fed stray cats. Apparently I’ve done it, you’ve done it, and your neighbor has done it (40% of us have, to be exact). These alley cat allies also want to spread the idea of Trap-Neuter-Return – a program that helps control feral cat populations and improve kitty-cat health.

Clinton and Usher are co-chairs for the New Look Foundation’s first World Leadership Awards, which will raise funds to mentor youth as world leaders.

Okay, so we’re a little obsessed with the egregious baby-naming practices of TV, movie, and music’s biggest stars (and not so biggest…sorry, John and Connie). We’ve done not one, not two, but three recent installments. This one will be the last. Maybe. It’s really all up to Hollywood. 1. Prima Sellecchia – Daughter of John Tesh and Connie Sellecca 2.

As I type this, I’m watching an episode of MTV’s “True Life” while anxiously awaiting the season finale of Bravo’s “Kell on Earth.” Due to my obsession with – er, interest in – this influential genre, I keep up with the happenings of its stars (purely for research purposes, of course). After making a tiny ripple in the reality TV pond with her appearance on MTV’s “Laguna Beach,” Heidi Montag moved on to “The Hills.” And while The Montag’s fame has waxed and waned, she has found inventive ways to keep her irrelevance surprisingly relevant. There have been many media manifestations of Montag and her husband, Spencer Pratt (j...

And I’ve pretty much made it my mission at Blisstree to shore up other mothers. But it’s been tough not to judge this whole Demi-Rumer-pole-dancing debacle. In case you aren’t a Hollywood gossip hound, reportedly, 47-year-old Demi Moore recently performed an impromptu pole dance at a party at the Chateau Marmont in L.A. (Wait…Demi actually wants people to remember Striptease?) She then pulled her 21-year-old daughter up and taught her some on-the-fly exotic moves while the crowd (mostly fellow A-listers, including Jennifer Aniston) cheered. Two words: Indecent. Proposal. Admittedly, erotic dancing is just another form of exercise these days: Crunches and Equinoxes acros...

Yesterday, we mentioned Ronald Reagan and his family at Alzheimer’s Notes.  When they went public with his condition, it couldn’t have been easy for them.  However, they have helped so many people, in an area that was unrelated to his presidency, governorship, and acting career.  They reached out to others.  Hopefully it brought the Reagans comfort.  I know it helped me as I d...
