J.J. Watt was perhaps just short of a living legend in the city of Houston before Hurricane Harvey struck, but now, he’s much, much more.

The Texans’ star began a relief fund with a personal donation of $100,000 in hopes of raising thousands more to aid the millions of victims displaced and in need or resources and rescue. That fund has now exceeded 10 million dollars.

The mark was reached after Hollywood stars Ellen DeGeneres and Miley Cyrus presented a $1 million check from Walmart during her show Wednesday. The huge donation comes after DeGeneres gave $50k of her own money, as well as $500,000 from Cyrus. Rapper Drake also helped push it over the mark with a $200,000 donation of his own.

Watt began his efforts after posting this video on Twitter which has now persuaded over 100,000 people to pitch in. He has continues to post video updates on the donations daily, pleading for the public’s help.

The amount that Watt’s donated has already exceeded his total earnings this season as one of the highest paid players in football.

  171. Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.

  172. The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.

  173. This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.

  175. I would like to thank you for the efforts you have put in writing this blog. I am hoping the same high-grade web site post from you in the upcoming also. Actually your creative writing skills has inspired me to get my own site now. Really the blogging is spreading its wings quickly. Your write up is a great example of it.

  202. Today, I went to the beachfront with my kids.

There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!
