Is it fair to use credit scores to help determine your insurance rates?

Did you know that in Nevada your credit rating can affect how much you are charged for car insurance? For many living in the state, credit is a major factor in their rates going up. For example, if you are behind on your mortgage payments, your car insurance rates could increase. Do you think it is fair to use credit scores to help determine your insurance rates?

Mya is rocking it!

I was double right last week as Mark and Mike went home. This week is kind of crazy as they had to do a ballroom dance and a Latin dance that had to be in a particular era. Finally, my original pick for the competition Mya topped the night with a 59 and got the first three 10’s of the season. That being said the next person to follow her was Joanna she got a 52 which was still way behind the total score for Mya. Next in line was Kelly Osbourne with her Fox Trot and her Jive and in the bottom was Donny Osmond and Aaron Carter. My feeling is that if it’s two people going home it will be Aaron and Donny. If it’s one, it will be Donny and Las Vegas will lose out this year  -- which is good for me when I get to do the show!

What do you think about the details Andre Agassi reveals in his new book?

Andre Agassi's new book hit store shelves Monday and he was in Las Vegas to promote it. The book's title is Open. Agassi stunned his fans when he admitted in the book to using crystal meth in the late 1990's. He also talks about his failed marriage and his very strained relationship with his own father, who pushed him to play a game that he didn't always like to play.

When asked about being a role model and whether or not his fans would be disappointed with the truth, he said that was something he had to come to terms with and not being open like the title of his book wasn't an option. What do you think about the revelations from his book?
