Carly Rae Jepsen isn't a one tricky pony. She's a two-to-three trick pony, if her debut U.S. album, 'Kiss,' is indication, and if she strays too far from what she knows, it doesn't end that well.

For the second time in less than a week, prices at the pump have jumped. This time up to $3.69 a gallon. Petroleum industry analysts have speculated that the price could be over $4 a gallon as a national average by April. Talk of $5 a gallon by Memorial Day is being bandied about.
