August 25th - It was on this day in history that the first U.S. woman won in the Olympics. Ethelda Bleibtrey was a U.S. swimmer who won 3 gold medals at the Olympics in 1920. Watching the Olympics this year, I was blown away by the strength, endurance and determination of all the athletes.

Famous Birthday
Howie Dorough, 34 - He’s one of the singers from the Backstreet Boys…but he’s not one of the really popular ones. The thing with boy bands is that there’s one or two members that always stick out more than the rest. In videos and album covers, they’re usually in plain view and the rest of the members are kinda faded into the background. Sadly, I think Howie is one of the background guys. But hey, on the bright side, he does have amazing skin and hair! So when he does get a rare close up, he always looks very handsome. If you want baby smooth skin like Howie with dark rich hair, head over to ZIRH for men’s beauty products. Save 16% by redeeming ZIRH coupons when you spend $20 or more.
