Garmin recalling 1.25 million GPS systems

Garmin Recall GPS ModelsGarmin is on fire.  The GPS manufacturer is recalling 1.25 million Nuvi devices after it was learned that some of the products were overheating.  Check below to see if your device is one of the recalls:

The faulty devices have batteries from an unnamed third-party supplier. Used in conjunction with a specific Nuvi printed circuit board (PCB) design, these batteries can “in rare circumstances, increase the possibility of overheating, which may lead to a fire hazard,” the company said in a statement. Only batteries from an unspecified date range are impacted.

Nearly 800,000 of the Nuvi devices were sold in the United States. The defective units include those with model numbers 200W, 250W, 260W, 7xx and 7xxT (where the xx is a two-digit number).

Heidi Montag is getting rid of her breast implants

Heidi Montag has given Life & Style magazine an exclusive interview wherein she tells the magazine that she feels trapped in her new body and she wants out.  Seem’s Heidi is turning over an entirely new leaf.. ditching Spencer, losing the boobs, what’s next?  The press release is below, the full story is in this month’s issue of Life & Style.

Just one week after the untimely death of her plastic surgeon, Dr. Frank Ryan, Heidi Montag sat down exclusively with Life & Style to tell-all about her plastic surgery regrets, revealing that she wants her outrageous G implants removed.

“I’m desperate to go back to normal,” she confides to Life & Style. “I’m downgrading and going a little smaller, to a D or a double D.”

More than nine months after she went under the knife on Nov. 20, Heidi says she is still in severe pain and her body has not gotten used to the over the top boob job. “I have major anxiety about it. I was taking painkillers but they weren’t working so I stopped. It hurt either way,”

Besides being unable to hug her four dogs or wear anything but custom-made clothing, “I’m obsessed with fitness but it’s impossible to work out with these boobs,” she says. “It’s heartbreaking. I can’t live an everyday life.”

And while Heidi tells Life & Style she is currently shopping for a surgeon in South America, she worries that she’ll be trapped in this cartoonish body forever after the untimely passing of her confidant Dr. Ryan. “I feel trapped in my own body,” Heidi tells Life & Style.

“There’s just no fixing it,” she says. “Dr. Ryan knows the work he did, he knows everything.”

Manny Ramirez placed on waivers

I told you people (specifically this guy) that Manny Ramirez will break your heart.. or worse, make you hate him within a couple seasons.  I went through it as a Red Sox fan, and now that all the “This is MY Town” billboards have replaced Manny Ramirez with Slash we’re all ready to see him go.

Manny Ramirez has officially been placed on waivers.  There is talk of him possibly getting picked up by the Cubs, but do you really want this guy fielding anymore?  In order to get the best out of Manny you need a cup for him to take a leak in, and a nice warm bench to sit on until it’s his time to hit.  This guy is what being a DH is all about.  And no, Red Sox Nation does not want him back.
