Seattle Seahawk Marshawn "Beast Mode" Spends Time In Vegas...Where??

Seattle Seahawks’ running back, Marshawn ‘Beast Mode’ Lynch, partied at Foxtail® Nightclub inside SLS Las Vegas on Feb.2nd. ‘Beast Mode’ was joined by his cousins for a boys’ night out on The Strip, arriving to the venue around 2 a.m. The crew hung out at the bar for most of the evening, and Lynch enjoyed his usual Hennessy on-the-rocks throughout the night, unwinding into the early morning hours following Sunday’s big game.

Tips For The Perfect Proposal For Valentine's Day!

Preparing to pop the question on Valentine’s Day, but not sure how to plan the perfect moment? The clock is ticking, but there is still time. Planning the perfect proposal can seem like a daunting task, as coming up with the right way to ask those four little words ("Will you marry me?") can pose as a challenge to even the most hopeless romantic.

In preparation for arguably the most popular day for marriage proposals, the diamond and gem experts American Gem Society and American Gem Society Laboratories have launched the Perfect Proposal Toolkit, as well as an all-new proposal countdown clock.

The revamped Perfect Proposal Toolkit is an online resource - located at www.americangemsociety.org/proposal - created to provide suggestions and inventive recommendations for both traditional and unconventional wedding proposals. The Toolkit provides a simple navigation experience, helping users find exactly what they are looking for by categorizing and providing tips for romantic, funny, adventurous, “2.0” and simple proposals.

The site provides expert advice on selecting the type of ring with which to propose (including what to look for when selecting the proper stones, settings, colors, sizes, etc.), memorable proposal stories, the latest trends, music playlists to set the mood and more.

The Toolkit also offers an easy to use “Find A Jeweler” feature that provides contact information on all American Gem Society certified jewelers throughout the United States.

To provide ample time to plan a small or large scale proposal, the Perfect Proposal Toolkit will be live through Valentine’s Day.

Toolkit users are encouraged to join the conversation and share their Perfect Proposal stories using the hashtag, #AGSProposal.
