Amy Winehouse out of hospital: British singer Amy Winehouse was rushed to a London emergency room on Monday. Her father Mitch was there to call the ambulance and told reporters gathered there, "She's fine, she just mixed up her medication." Her American rep said: "Amy Winehouse suffered a reaction to medication at home and was taken to the hospital." She was released this morning.

275 minutes per week for weight loss: Scientists at the University of Pittsburgh have calculated how many minutes of exercise is needed to lose weight and keep it off: 275 minutes per week over the baseline activity (that's 55 minutes a day, five days a week). When 200 women were given no more than 1500 calories a day and told to exercise five days a week, the women who exercised for 275 minutes per week kept 10 percent or more of their original body weight off for two years.

Rachael Ray to launch pet food line: Celebrity chef Rachael Ray has expanded her culinary line to include dog foods, based on recipes she created for her pit bull Isaboo. All the proceeds from the sales of Rachael Ray Nutrish will go to Rachael's Rescue, a charity she founded to help abused animals. "It seemed like not a lot of extra time to donate to something that could potentially raise millions of dollars for championing these little creatures that can't speak for themselves," Ray said. A line for cats also is planned.

Where to send kids to college...for keggers: The Princeton Review has named the University of Florida the best party school in the country. The school stole the title from previous winner West Virginia University and beat the University of Mississippi and Penn State University in the Princeton Review survey of 120,000 students. Florida also came in first in the categories of students who study the least and students who pack the stadiums. The Princeton Review's annual guide, "The Best 368 Colleges," also ranks schools on scores from admissions, financial aid, best food, environmentally friendly practices, and more.
