  • Bachelor Pad 2’ Recap Episode 2: Ames Brown Trumps Them All by Lori Bizzoco
    Tara Reid: Engaged and Married All In One Day Just hours after tweeting that she “just got engaged,” Tara Reid tied the knot with her fiancé Zack Kehayov in Greece on Saturday. UsMagazine.com reported that the American Reunion actress recently split from her boyfriend Michael Lilleun. She was also previously engaged to Internet entrepreneur Michael Axtmann, but called it off in April 2010. Even further back, she was engaged to Carson Daly — The Voice host — and they ended their relationship in June 2001. Things might be happening very quickly for Reid, but we wish her all the best. What are the advantages to eloping? Cupid’s Advice: Weddings are expensive and can be stressful to plan. Here is why Cupid thinks eloping can be the best decision for you: 1. Cost: Couples who elope will pay a nominal fee compared to those who have a wedding. Marriage licenses range from $10 (Colorado) to $100 (Minnesota). Your other expenses will only be your outfit, transportation and lodging. 2. No stress: Planning a wedding is stressful. If you elope, you won’t be overwhelmed because all you have to plan is when and where you want to marry the one you love. 3. Avoid drama: If your parents object to the marriage, then avoid the drama the wedding will cause. By eloping, you’ll have a simpler ceremony and won’t have to deal with people who don’t support you both. Do you think it’s a good idea for couples to elope? Let us know about your thoughts by commenting below.

  • Reality TV Personality Chris Harrison Partners with Seagram's Escapes: New Flavor Seagram's Escapes Tropical Rosé to Hit Sh
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contact: Cheryl McLean 323-512-3822 [email protected] Reality TV Personality Chris Harrison Partners with Seagram’s Escapes: New Flavor Seagram’s Escapes Tropical Rosé to Hit Shelves this February Rochester, NY – One of reality TV’s most beloved stars is teaming up with one of America’s ​ favorite alcoholic beverage brands, and they’re a perfect match. Reality TV host and social media giant, Chris Harrison, is expanding into the alcoholic beverage space with a brand-new Seagram’s Escapes flavor: Tropical Rosé. The rosé style drink has just 100 calories, similar to seltzers, but is packed with much more taste and made with natural passion fruit and dragon fruit flavors. Tropical Rosé clocks in at 3.2 percent alcohol-by-volume and will be available nationally in four packs of 12-ounce cans starting in February. Harrison has been fully immersed in what is his first alcohol partnership, working closely with the Seagram’s Escapes team to craft the new drink’s flavor, name and packaging. “Creating Tropical Rosé has been a really hands-on experience for me,” said Harrison. “From the very beginning, I traveled with the Seagram’s Escapes team to their flavor house in Chicago to pick just the right color and the perfect fruit flavors. After we were happy with the drink, I had the opportunity to choose the name and weigh in on everything from packaging to advertising. I’m proud of Tropical Rosé and can’t wait for everyone to finally taste it.” “We’re thrilled to have had the opportunity to partner with Chris and to share this drink with both our fans and his,” said Lisa Texido, Seagram’s Escapes brand manager.

Stanwood, Thesis Advisor Boston College May 2007 Acknowledgments There have been many people over the past year who have in one way or another helped and participated in the creation of this senior thesis. First and foremost, I dedicate this thesis to my family for encouraging me to undertake this project and challenge myself, and for helping me push through even at the most stressful of times. They have given me endless love and support my entire life and have never stopped believing in me, and I am eternally thankful to them. I also want to thank my advisor, Professor Bill Stanwood, for his countless hours of guidance, support and optimism. Coming in as my advisor later than normal, he has been optimistic and excited about this project from day one. Constantly available and willing to help, he has had such confidence in my abilities. This thesis would not be what it is today if not for Professor Stanwood’s direction and continual support, and I feel privileged to have had him as my advisor. Finally, I want to thank the Communication Department and the Arts & Sciences Honors Program of Boston College for affording me the opportunity to engage in such a challenging yet fulfilling project. It has been a tremendous learning experience and one which I am incredibly thankful for! i Table of Contents Abstract..............................................................................................................................
