Tuesday 15th June

Hellooo my friends and welcome back to the blog!! Its Tuesday...Soon it will be Wednesday and then the weekend will just be around the corner!! YAYA!! And what a lovely day it has been today with the sun showing its face for the first time in ages...Mind you, I would like it a bit hotter!

Ooooh hows your nerves today??? With this blog, I like to help you, so if you are having problems today and you just want to carm your nerves and get back to normal, here are 10 GREAT ways to carm your nerves:
1. Take a 10-minute walk. This will help your body to relax and let off energy that may be leading to your anxiety.
2. Listen to some music or a relaxation CD. This will help distract you from thinking about your current stressors.
3. Stop obsessive thoughts. Keep busy as much as possible outside your home is even better to avoid getting bored.
4. Stop talking about your past. If you must, seek counseling for professional help. Soon after try to move on with your life and leave your past behind.
5. Breathe slowly. This will help you to relieve some of the tension you are experiencing within minutes.
6. Count to ten. This technique can help you to maintain focused and avoid saying or engaging into inappropriate behaviors you would later regret.
7. Use positive affirmations. Talking to yourself is always a useful self-care tool one can depend on anytime you want to avoid a nervous break down or losing control over your feelings.
8. Be gentle with yourself. Avoid putting yourself down or being negative, as this will only stress you out more.
9. Sleep or take a nap. Rest is important when it comes to taking care of one's body. When you get tired you become irritable and stressed, which may lead to health problems.
10. Talk to a friend or family. Sharing one's stressors with people you can trust helps to relieve tension and may lead to you finding a solution.

I hope those help!! If you want anymore advice or whatever, please just email me... casey.floyd@mtjr.co.uk Remember me and the show is here for you!!

Ever been talking to a friend or colleague from the south and realize you’ve picked up their twang? Don’t feel bad. Linguists say a lot of us unintentionally pick up other people’s accents. Arika Okrent, a linguistics expert and author of “In the Land of Invented Languages,” says copying a person’s accent is a natural human trait. While picking up the accent of an individual tends to annoy others, including the one who picked it up, a recent study found those who pick up the accent of folks from other parts of the country are more likely to be more helpful and generous toward others than people who didn’t pick up the accent. WOW!! I think I think I'll have to go and live up in Scotland for a few months!! At the moment I am surrounded by Welsh people, Brummies and sheep...I need to be surrounded by more types of people - don't I?!

For someone who got famous by singing about refusing to go to rehab, AMY WINEHOUSE sure has been to rehab a lot. The not-always-reliable British tabloids say she has admitted herself again, because she wants to save her relationship with some guy she's been nailing lately. A so-called "source" says, quote, "When she's not on the bottle they get on brilliantly. But he has told her to quit the booze, otherwise he'll be off, and she hit it hard last week. She wants to keep him so has decided to make a huge effort to stay sober." So in other words, Amy might be in rehab AGAIN...But we aren't too sure...You can't always trust this papers!! You can't even trust the page 3 girl because her boobs might be fake...Anyway...Moving on...Thats it for today!!

Back on air with THE BIG SHOW tonight from 7pm UK TIME! - http://www.mtjr.co.uk

Wednesday 16th June

Greeting's fellow readers and WELCOME to the blog and to Wednesday!! The weekend is just around the corner...Can just smell it!

Now this weekend is very important! I was told today that it is Father's Day tomorrow...If you haven't got anything for you Dad, like me, go and buy him some Calvin Klein and make sure it is called "Obsession"! Why I hear you shout...Well Biologists tracking jaguars in the Guatemalan jungle might smell nice but it's all in the name of science, with researchers finding the Calvin Klein cologne Obsession for Men attracts big cats. And if it attracts those pussy's, I'm sure you'll able to get another type of pussy on your back in a nightclub...Anyway, Biologists Rony Garcia and Jose Moreira from the Wildlife Conservation Society's (WCS) Jaguar Conservation Program say they use hidden cameras as a primary source for observing and tracking jaguars in Guatemala's Maya Biosphere Reserve.

But they also rely on Obsession for Men, a cologne known for its complex scent, to help lure then research and hopefully ultimately preserve jaguars in the Central American country. So kids, if your daddy likes to smell nice, make sure you get him some of that...And you never know, within a year, you might have a new brother or sister because your mum wouldn't be able to get off him!

Have you ever been to the doctors and your can get in fast??? Well there is this women who had this problem and she did something which made her get the attention she wanted quicker! An out-of-work Michigan woman shot herself in the hope she'd receive medical treatment for a shoulder injury. Kathy Myers says she injured the shoulder a month ago while playing with her dogs. The 41-year-old Niles resident said she's been unable to see a specialist because she can't afford health insurance. So Myers shot herself on Thursday...Sounds a stupid thing to do but at least she got to see a doctor about her shoulder...PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS AT HOME!! She was released from the hospital a few hours later.

Myers told WSBT-TV in South Bend, Ind., she has "no suicide wish." She says her life isn't great "right now, but I want to live." The prosecutor's office is going to decide whether Myers will face charges for firing a weapon within city limits. So there we go...Don't try that at home people!! Mind you, doctors and hospitals are a pain in the backside!

Thats it for today readers!! I am now off into the garden because the weather is lovely today!! There isn't a cloudy in the sky!! Apparently, its like this around much of the UK right now!!

Thursday 17th June

Ooooooo, I am so loving this weather!! Summer is finally here!! In the papers the other day was stories saying that we could see some water shortages if we don't see any rain...Looks like I better start weeing into a pot...Anyway, welcome to the daily blog!

The sun makes people do a lot of odd things...Seriously, it has that effect on some people...A Chinese man brought a city centre to near gridlock by practising yoga in the middle of a busy road. See, I told you to makes people do odd things! Traffic was reduced to a crawl after the man got out his mat in the middle of Guangzhou, Guangdong province, in the middle of the morning rush hour. I'm guessing the gym was closed or full so he needed to do it somewhere where there is loads of room...Horns blasted out around the city as the congestion spread to neighbouring roads.

Traffic officers were drafted in to direct vehicles and the man was eventually arrested and taken to a police station! WHAT?! Arrested for doing Yoga in the middle of the road??? Welll well well! A police spokesman said: "Luckily he only practised for an hour, otherwise the whole city's transportation system would have ground to a halt." So there we go...Errrr, if you don't want to be arrested, don't do yoga in the middle of the road during rush hour, because you might get arrested! If the gym is closed, GO TO THE PARK to do your stuff!

In this day and age, kids will do anything to get their hands on some money...Two teenage 'entrepreneurs' have been arrested for selling burgers and beer - with free porn DVDs - from a caravan near clubs and bars. Well at least they were trying to make a business! But what I want to know is, where did they get the movies from...??? Because I don't think shops like Blockbuster sells them...They allegedly screened porn movies onto a nearby wall to attract custom to their unlicensed venture in Driffield, East Yorkshire. The pair even had a Facebook page - Driffield Porn Burger Caravan Lads for Junior Apprentice 2011 - set up in their 'honour'. Customers were allegedly given a free porn DVD if they spent more than £5 on food and drink...Well thats a good deal!

But the offer was spotted by outraged locals who alerted police and two men were arrested following an undercover operation. Police also seized their caravan which was parked on an access road in the centre of the market town, close to clubs and bars. Sgt David Jenkins said: "We received complaints that free porn DVDs were being offered to everyone who spent £5 or more on beer and burgers." So there we go young readers...Don't GET ANY IDEAS!!

FRIDAY 18th June

Helloooo readers and Hellooooo Friday!! The weekend is now here and apparently the weather is meant to be nice! Woohooo! Looks like I'll be spending all weekend out in the garden!

Artists do really strange things, as well as painting stuff...Well there is this odd artist who thought it would be good art to put a huge rock on top of a mountain...I think he'd been drinking...Anyway, this is true! An artist is to place a four tonne boulder on top of one of Austria's highest mountains. Ai Weiwei - who designed the Birds Nest stadium for the Beijing Olympics - has been given permission to take the massive rock to the top of the 9,000 ft high Hoher Dachstein peak. An artist is to place a four tonne boulder on top of one of Austria's highest mountains. The artist says the work will highlight the tension between man and his environment...Oooook! See what drink and art does to people kids! ...Soooo kids, if you want to do odd things when you are older, become a artist!

Here is a nice story to end the week with...A Hungarian dog has been reunited with his owners after being sucked into the sky still in his kennel by the wind from a huge storm. Agnes Tamas, 57, said she had chained her dog who she has renamed Lucky to the dog house when he was swept away by what she described as the worst storm anyone in her village of Gesztered can remember. She said: "I saw the roofs of the local houses being ripped off one by one, and I ran into my garden to try and get to the cellar. I couldn't believe it when the dog house flew up into the air - complete with my dog cowering inside. It was like something out of the wizard of Oz." Awwwwwww!! Poor dog!

Lucky was eventually found 20 miles away after local radio reported an appeal for him to be traced. The dog house and the chain however had vanished. Kalman Csutor who found Lucky and called the Red Cross said: "He was pretty shaken - I have no idea what happened to the dog house or whether the wind carried him all that way - but when i found him he was 20 miles from home." Storms are dangerous things, but we're lucky we don't get weather like that here in the UK!

Just a short one for today guys, because the weekend is HERE!! The blog will be back on Monday! Have a nice weekend!

Monday 21st June

Welcome to the LONGEST DAY OF THE YEAR...Its seems like a normal day to me but apparently, its meant to stay light until late tonight...But some people say that after this day, the nights start drawing in...Booooo!! Anywayyyy, what a lovely day today has been...Too hot for me but it is nice!! Lets hope the studio air con is working well tonight!

So the World Cup is still going and England are doing...Well, I won't finish that sentence...The big think at the World Cup this year is that horn thing...The Vuvuzelas...Basically, summed up in a few words, they are annoying and people seem to be using them everywhere now! But the world's favourite tennis tournament will be a World Cup-free zone - with vuvuzelas banned from making a racket! Woohooo! The All England Club took action to outlaw the droning football World Cup horns amid fears they could distract players. Football fans may also be disappointed to hear that no games in South Africa will being broadcast on the big screens. And some people have even complained to the BBC about these horns...So for all tennis fans, don't worry about these horns, because they won't be allowed into the ground!

Justin Bieber is going to have to explain his fascination with KIM KARDASHIAN now . . . because in a recent interview, he revealed that he's into SMART WOMEN. He said, quote, "She needs to have a nice personality, a good sense of humor, nice eyes and a brain. What's the point of having a nice looking girlfriend if you can't talk to her? "You want to be able to sit down to dinner and be with someone who you can have a proper conversation with." So ladies, if you love Justin and you want him to love you, you better be smart! I don't think Justin likes doing maths, so he leaves it all to the girl to do...

Are you someone who lives in a HUGE street and you sometimes forgot which house you live at?? Well maybe you should try and make you house stand out from the rest...A Croatian family have painted their house white with black spots in tribute to their dalmatian dog. Dad Goran Tomasic, 55, wanted to remember pet Bingo after he was run over and killed by a car. So he painted the entire exterior of the family home in the village of Pribuslavec black and white. Awwwwwww, So sweet!! Now I wonder why they never painted the England Flag on it too?? Hmmmm...Maybe because they didn't want to look stupid if you lost the world cup...

Well thats it for today roomies!!

Tuesday 22nd June

Good afternoon my warm readers!! Welcome to another boiling afternoon in the sunshine and welcome to another blog!! I'll try and not make today's blog long because I know you'd prefer to be outside in the sun rather than reading this...Soooo here we go!

Important news to start off with today, if you have an Ipod and you're always listening to it, listen up! Listening to an iPod or MP3 player for just an hour can significantly damage your hearing, according to new research. So if I was you, I would start cutting down a bit. I do want to hear your deaf before your 50! See, I do care for you! Anyway, these Scientists have shown that listening to music on headphones for an hour can have a temporary impact on people's hearing because of the damage caused to the hair cells in the outer ear. Participants in the study, published in the journal Archives of Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery, had their hearing tested and were then asked to listen to pop or rock music for six one hour long sessions using two different types of headphones and at varying, preset volumes. OK, I have come to a conclusion, I think I now know why I can't hear must these days...But on the other hand, I just think its down to old age...

Are you one of those people who hate this weather because of Hayfever??? Well here is some good news, a jab that could provide a "one size fits all" approach to tackling hayfever, asthma and eczema could be available within a few years, a conference heard. YAYA!! OK OK, you now stop cheering hayfever suffers...Oh, did you know, today is Hay day...Today is the day when people will suffer from hayfever the most...I bet you didn't know that! Swiss researchers claimed allergies that blight the lives of 10 million British sufferers could be largely eradicated with a single vaccine. Its nice to see that the Swiss care for us British people!! We must have given them 12 points in the Eurovision this year...

Something on the bright-side now, and something to make you say "AWWWWW"... Rather than flying around Centre Court at Wimbledon this year, some tennis balls have been given the unusual job of housing harvest mice instead. Awwwwww! Conservationists hope the old balls will make perfect nest houses to boost numbers living at Slimbridge Wetland Centre in Gloucestershire. They have been put in an area of the centre for mammals called Back From The Brink. So, if you want to see some cute some mice this summer in your garden, all you need to do is cut some tennis balls in half and put them around your garden!! BUT REMEMBER not to use them again!!! You wouldn't want to see a flying mouse!

Wednesday 23rd June

Oooook! Happening right now as I type this blog, the England game is on and already we are 1 - 0 up!! YAYA!! If you don't understand football, if we don't win this game, we are out of the World Cup...So in other words, we better win! COME ON ENGLAND!! Anyway, its been another warm, sunny day where I have been today...Far too hot but its making me go brown! LOVE IT!

Now, just so you know, every story in this blog is true!! An Australian man has had his firearms confiscated after he and a friend took turns to shoot each other in the bottom with an air rifle. Seriously!! This is true and just WEIRD! Victoria Police confirmed that the man would also have his licence revoked after the incident, which left the 34-year-old friends in pain and needing surgery. "The men were sharing a few beers on Sunday evening when they thought it would be interesting to see if they shot one another with an air rifle, if it would penetrate their skin or it would hurt," police said. Horsham police will continue to investigate and will interview both Grampian men when they have sufficiently recovered! Well what a stupid thing to do...This must be a new sport...Or maybe not!

BIG NEWS NOW!! Apparently, "Harry Potter" is about the only pop culture phenomenon that DANIEL RADCLIFFE is familiar with. He says, quote, "I only heard JUSTIN BIEBER for the first time two weeks ago. I genuinely thought it was a woman singing. I'd never heard it before. Is it big in England yet?" He added, quote, "I'm so out of the loop when it comes to pop culture that I kind of don't even try anymore. "I know who LADY GAGA is. I think she's kind of amazing. She's really got a voice. My God. Not my kind of music, particularly, but she can really sing." So there we go, Daniel Radcliffe isn't that much of a wizard at all!! I hope Justin Bieber wasn't told this!

If you're not clinging to your job for dear life, and actually thinking about switching careers . . . might as well change to one where they're BEGGING for more people. According to Manpower Staffing, these are the 10 jobs that companies are having the most trouble filling. Usually, it's because there just aren't enough talented and skilled people to handle all of the available positions. Suck 'em down . . .

#1.) Skilled laborers . . . like carpenters, plumbers, and electricians
#2.) Sales representatives
#3.) Nurses
#4.) Technicians
#5.) Truck drivers
#6.) Restaurant and hotel staff
#7.) Management and executives
#8.) Engineers
#9.) Doctors
#10.) Customer service representatives

Thursday 24th June

Hello there Thursday people, and welcome to today's addition of the daily blog!! Big news: England won their match yesterday, which means we are on our way home yet! BUT we have to play mighty Germany on Sunday...I wonder if we'll win that match!?

Exciting news out today, Digital channel Babestation Xtreme has announced what it claims is the worldwide premiere of adult 3D TV scheduled broadcasts. Wooohooo!! Late night TV will never be the same again now! The Freeview station will broadcast the movie 3D Sex Fantasies at midnight on Saturday, June 26 and promises a "new era" of live and pre-recorded content on its family of channels. Roll on the weekend! I say! Philippe Gerard of film technology company 3Dlized recently claimed that "when boobs pop out of the screen" in 3D cinema broadcasts of pornography "people reach out to touch them". But when you reach out to touch them, you won't feel anything...I'm sorry, but they just aren't like the real things! If you do what the real thing, go on a dating website or something...

Watching the World Cup on TV could help to kill you, scientists warned last night. I bet you watching the big game yesterday, but this is something you need to be aware of...Every hour sitting in front of the box boosts your risk of death from heart disease by seven per cent, a study of 13,197 healthy people in Norfolk has shown. The Medical Research Council found one in 35 died over 10 years. Thirty might have been saved by less TV and sedentary activities could all be as risky. So in other words, on Sunday, go to the be and watch the big game on Sunday instead watching at home!

There last few days/weeks have been boiling and there has been hardly any rain, so this won't surprise you; one of Britain’s biggest water companies has raised the prospect of hosepipe bans by seeking a drought permit. The emergency action will let the company in what is normally one of the country’s wettest areas, the Lake District, extract more water. United Utilities, which supplies the North-west including Manchester and Liverpool, is acting because the region’s driest start to a year since 1929 has left reservoirs less than half full. Well lets just say thank god there is loads of water is the oceans!

FRIDAY 25th June

Hello my lovely Friday readers!! Welcome to another daily blog full of all the stuff you need to know before you start your weekend! So the weekend is now here and the weather is going to be great...It could get around 30 degrees over the weekend!! Looks like my legs will be out most of the weekend then.

Women do loads of crazy things, as a lot of men should know...But this is the craziest thing I have ever heard a women do... Police have arrested a woman in Utah on suspicion of stealing two cars while completely naked. Sylvina Beagley, 31, reportedly pulled over a man putting up road signs in West Jordan before jumping into his car and driving off. The man followed her in her own abandoned vehicle and dialled the police, who chased her until she crashed into a fence. Seriously, this story is true!! I don't think the women had her head on right....Beagley, of Kearns, is being held in jail on charges of stealing two vehicles, felony fleeing and lewdness. This brings me onto a story...My mum was woken up on morning around 4am but people shouting things down the street...She looked out of her window and saw 3 naked men running in the snow!! She said they were small...Anyway, I think its time to move on!

I have two kittens at home who are sisters, and I took one to the vets last night because they keep play fighting and the one had a sore on its head. So I took to see a vet about it...I NOW HATE GOING TO THE VETS! Because the women stuck her finger up the kittens bum to make her wee for some reason...What a sick job!! Never become a vet kids!! You do the most horrible things! But just so you know, the kitten is ok and has got some cream to put on the sore.

Here is something that might make you sad now... A California couple face child endangerment charges after police said they tried to sell their six-month-old baby for $25 (£17) outside a Walmart store. Argggg, it is sick what some people do! But its true! Salinas police spokesman, officer Lalo Villegas, said that Patrick Fousek and Samantha Tomasini were arrested on Wednesday morning, hours after Fousek allegedly approached two women outside Walmart and asked if they would like to purchase his child. The women initially thought Fousek was joking, but when he became persistent, they became suspicious and reported it to police. If that couple wanted to get rid of the baby, why did they have the sex to make it??? Let this be a reminder, if you don't want a baby, always use a condom!!

Parents, are you having trouble getting your kids to do some housework?? Well you're not a lone, becase a large numbers of young teenagers have never washed their own clothes and do not iron or do household shopping, according to a survey.More than three-quarters, or 76%, of 11 to 16-year-olds in the UK have yet to load a washing machine, 63% do not iron and 75% are strangers to bathroom cleaning, a survey has shown.

The study showed more than a third - 35% - have never cooked a meal, and 92% do not ever do the household shopping. I set a bad example because I don't do my washing! My mum does it for me! Thats what mum's are here for! Anyway, thats it for this week once again!! Have a mighty fine weekend and I'll type to you on Monday!

Monday 28th June

Hello my fellow readers and welcome to the last week of June...It is the First of July on Thursday...Yeah, we're getting oh so closer to Christmas!! Anyway, what a blooming hot day it has been today!! Who needs to go on holiday over the seas when the weather is just as nice here!

So I'm sorry to say this but we all know that England did rubbish yesterday and they are on their way home, but if you are a huge fan of the Vuvuzelas (Who loud horns), you're going to love this....Video sharing website YouTube has added a button which plays the sound of vuvuzela horns over its clips. The World Cup feature appears in the shape of a football on the bottom right hand corner below the screen. It allows fans of the controversial African plastic trumpet to overlay its sound on film clips, often to hilarious effect. Clips that are proving popular thanks to the new feature include David Cameron's speech on being voted into 10 Downing Street, and a USA vs England Lego match. So if you love the sound those horns give out, head over to YouTube now!! My friend brought one of these horns over the internet last week...He said its for him to blow when his girlfriend starts giving orders to him!! HAHAHAH! Love it!

Now, here is the stupiest story of the day...And just so you know, I have checked this story from different sources and it is true! A US man was run over by his own dog after it jumped into his pickup truck and knocked it into gear. Christopher Bishop, 43, was lying under his Ford truck, checking for oil leaks, with the vehicle in neutral, the engine running and the driver's door open. Suddenly, his bulldog, Tassey, jumped into the truck and knocked it into reverse, reports Hernando Today.

The truck rolled over Mr Bishop's left side, but he managed to escape serious injury, and was able to stop the vehicle before it struck a fence. He then went back into his house and waited about six hours before seeking medical attention because he "does not like doctors". Mr Bishop was treated at Pasco Regional Hospital for a non-life threatening injuries. So there we go...And its true!! So keep your dog out of the car driver seat because they aren't very good drivers!

BIG SHOWBIZ NEWS now...Angelina Jolie has revealed that she doesn't think she will be acting for "much longer". The 35 year-old actress told Vanity Fair that acting helped her while she was growing up, but that it is now not as important. "It's not the most important thing in my life. Acting helped me as I was growing up. It helped me learn about myself, helped me travel, helped me understand life, express myself, all those wonderful things. So I'm very, very grateful, it's a fun job. It's a luxury. Look, I'm at work today in the middle of Venice. But I don't think I'll do it much longer." The star added that having a family has shifted her priorities. "Because I have a happy home.... I got back from work last night, and everybody was playing music and dancing and I suddenly found myself dancing around with a bunch of little fun crazy people," she explained.

Jolie's upcoming action film Salt will be released July 23 in the US and August 20 in the UK.
