Gotta Get The Bread And Milk! Winter Storms Are Coming! [VIDEO]
Winter storms are predicted for Wichita Falls this week. Of course, this means many people are going to freak out and rush to fill their pantries.
Winter storms are predicted for Wichita Falls this week. Of course, this means many people are going to freak out and rush to fill their pantries.
Icy roads may return to Texoma by the end of this week
When inclement weather hits Wichita Falls it becomes necessary for some schools, businesses and organizations to close or delay opening. With that in mind, we would like to remind local business owners and organizations that they can sign up for our FREE closings/delays directory.
With the winter weather that has hit Texoma, it's important to use extra caution on the roads. Far too many people don't know how to drive on ice, and the result can be deadly.
During the annual off-road event 'Rednecks With Paychecks' in Saint Jo, Texas on Saturday (Oct 26), an off-road racing enthusiast was struck by lightning twice - and survived.
UPDATE Saturday 6:15 a.m. EST: The number of reported fatalities is at least five, with another 71 injuries caused by what authorities say are a total of 17 tornadoes ripping through the Midwest on Friday.
Many people are wondering what they can do in the wake of the tornados that ripped through Oklahoma last night, so a representative from the Red Cross stopped by to make some suggestions.
Yesterday's (May 20) tornado that ripped through the Oklahoma City suburb of Moore is a painful reminder to all just how powerful Mother Nature can be. According to ABC News, the two-mile wide twister has killed at least 24 people, an esitmate which was just lowered by the medical examiner from the original estimate of 91. Tragically, seven of those casualties are children as the tornado tore through two elementary schools yesterday afternoon.
A massive tornado touched down in Moore, Oklahoma yesterday afternoon (May 20), just south of Oklahoma City, killing dozens. At least seven of those killed were students at Plaza Towers Elementary School in Moore.
Preliminary reports clasify the tornado as an EF4 with wind speeds
Officials in Oklahoma have lowered the number of deaths suffered to 24 in the massive tornado that swept through the town of Moore Monday night. Originally, the figure had been as high as 51, probably a result of double-counting.
A huge tornado touched down just outside of Oklahoma City earlier today, causing widespread destruction and leaving behind a yet-untold number of casualties.
To see how you can help those affected, see the list below
The massive EF4 tornado that touched down Monday Afternoon (May 20) in Moore, Oklahoma - southwest of Oklahoma City - is likely to be one of the worst in history.

DC's Best Neighborhoods For First-Time Buyers
As home prices in the area have steadily increased over the last couple years, one group of buyers is finding that options in their price range are dwindling: first-timers.
At the request of a number of readers, UrbanTurf did some research and came up with three neighborhoods in the DC area that are good options for first-time buyers.
However, we took a bit of a different approach with our analysis. Too often, first-time buyers are categorized as young professionals in search of a one-bedroom near a Metro line. While in many cases that is true, there are a number of first-timers on the hunt for a larger place.
So, this article picks out the best neighborhoods in the area split up by property size: one-bedrooms, two-bedrooms or three-bedrooms.
Are there other neighborhoods out there that first-timers should look into beyond those mentioned below? Absolutely. These neighborhoods are just our choices for where they can find a place for under $400,000 in a given property segment.
One-Bedrooms — Cleveland Park
Connecticut Avenue in Cleveland Park
We can hear it now.
"You chose Cleveland Park???? That is home to some of the biggest houses in the city?!?"
Yes, that is true. But the Red Line neighborhood also probably has the highest percentage of well-priced one-bedrooms in the city.
The average sales price for the last 15 one-bedroom units (condos and co-ops) in the neighborhood came in at $349,000. And at $460, the average price per square foot for these units is also on the low side for DC. While monthly fees can run high (averaging $470), it is important to remember that many of the one-bedrooms in Cleveland Park are co-ops where the monthly fees include property taxes.
Beyond the real estate, Cleveland Park checks a number of boxes for the young, professional first-time buyer. It sits on top of the Metro and several bus lines run down Connecticut Avenue. There is a retail strip that has gotten increasingly better over the past few years and offers everything from restaurants to movies to places to pick up everyday items. And, while not as trendy, the neighborhood remains relatively peaceful and quiet compared to its neighbors to the south and east.
Two-Bedrooms — Silver Spring
UrbanTurf discovered that finding a neighborhood in the DC area with a healthy stock of two-bedroom units available for under $400,000 was a tall order.
However, downtown Silver Spring, just on the other side of Northwest DC, proved to be a place where there were a number of options…for below $300,000.
The average price for the last ten two-bedrooms to sell in downtown Silver Spring was $290,000. Given our surprise at the low number, we took a closer look to make sure we weren't including distressed homes in the mix. We weren't; the listings ranged from homes in garden-style complexes in need of work to move-in ready units in high-rises.
Downtown Silver Spring may not be a destination at the top of the list for prospective buyers in the region, but places like the AFI Silver Theatre, the relatively new music venue The Fillmore and an increasing number of restaurants are making it a place to look.
Michigan Park
Three-Bedrooms — Michigan Park
DC has a handful of neighborhoods where homebuyers can find a single-family home for under $400,000, and Michigan Park is one of them.
The average sales price for the last 10 three-bedroom homes in the northeast DC neighborhood came in at $388,000 with an average price per square foot of just $262. To be clear, these sales figures include homes that needed some work or renovations down the line, but most were in livable condition when purchased.
Compared to DC's suburban-like neighborhoods in upper Northwest, Michigan Park is notably more modest and a bit slower. And there isn't a lot of variety in the housing stock: the tree-lined streets are largely lined with red, box colonials. The retail options are quite limited, but people generally move here because it is a bit quieter than the rest of DC, while still being in the city.
Unfortunately, it is not a neighborhood where homes come on the market that frequently. It took going back through four months of records to find the ten three-bedroom sales used for our analysis.
Readers, are you saying "Holy smokes, they didn't include that one?" Make your case in the comments section.

Great concept. I agree with these and would also add in col hts for one beds and Woodridge for three beds.
- J. Martin said at 9:01 am on Friday August 9, 2013:
I would say Fairlawn. Traditional row houses, row houses with garages, bungalows, single family homes and condos. Renovated homes can be had for $270k to $330k. Great location close to Capitol Hill and some shopping nearby on Penn. Ave or shops in Anacostia. Great neighborhood!
- Kea said at 9:10 am on Friday August 9, 2013:
I agree that Woodridge in NE DCis a nice neighborhood. Decent sized houses and big yards. Great for young families!
- knm said at 9:22 am on Friday August 9, 2013:
Don't forget Hyattsville!
- Rick said at 9:34 am on Friday August 9, 2013:
I'd throw Trinidad and Kingman Park in there for affordability and being west of the river.
What are people's thoughts on Congress Heights and Mayfair?
- StringsAttached said at 9:47 am on Friday August 9, 2013:
@J. Martin…I agree with you because I live in Fairlawn and actually get to experience the neighborhood. Unfortunately, real estate websites such as Urban Turf, and frankly the type of individuals that visit their site, can't overlook the negatives of the neighborhood (every neighborhood has its negatives) to suggest it to their readers. I'm sure people would be quite shocked to learn that Good Hope Road, in the infamous Southeast quadrant of the city, once sported "Whites Only" signs and that the row homes you reference were once owned by Caucasians who eventually left because they didn't want to live next to Black Americans. UT would rather send people to Silver Spring than east of the river and forego the sweeping views we have of monuments and other DC landmarks, proximity to the downtown, and the suburban (yes, I said suburban) feel neighborhoods offer. I love how people drive down one or two streets in Anacostia and then feel as though they are EOTR neighborhood experts.
I don't fault UT because their job is to appeal to the masses.
P.S. I reviewed my post more than I should have and almost didn't submit it because I felt it may come across as being "angry"; it's not. I meant it to be informative and hopefully eye-opening to some people. From a real estate perspective, essentially every UT article regarding value housing (looking at $/sq. ft., access to public transportation, neighborhood improvements, proximity to downtown, access to major highways, parks, bike trails, etc.) in DC should include something EOTR. It's that simple.
- Will said at 10:13 am on Friday August 9, 2013:
That small neighborhood between Brookland and Petworth occasionally has houses for sale and they are usually under $400K (that's what 121 Hawaii NE is going for now). Not really sure what neighborhood you would say it's in but it is within walking distance to both.
You got to get creative and aggressive to find a place in DC. And even that doesn't always work.
- Jamie said at 10:26 am on Friday August 9, 2013:
Anacostia—Douglass—Congress Heights. We've been in Douglass for 5 years now and our mortgage (3 BR) is less than the cost of a 1 bedroom in Cleveland Park.
- Ryan said at 10:40 am on Friday August 9, 2013:
Some 3 brs in north Eckington are still going under/around $400k. Close proximity to downtown, metros, and all that's developing in NoMa and Bloomingdale.
- Nick said at 11:28 am on Friday August 9, 2013:
I recently bought a house in Lamond North of Kansas Ave. The area is usually advertised as Takoma but is technically Lamond-Riggs. It's a 10-15 minute walk to the shops in Takoma DC/PK. I got it for well under $300k but prices in the neighborhood have been skyrocketing. It's probably increased in value about $45k in 9 months. I'm not a fan of Woodridge but I think Michigan Park, Brightwood, Lamond-Riggs, Manor Park, and their surrounding neighborhoods are all good values. Basically everything in close proximity to Petworth, Brookland, and Takoma.
- YupCap said at 11:47 am on Friday August 9, 2013:
This was very informative. Thank you. What was most informative is that if you actually ARE a "young professional in search of a one-bedroom near a Metro line," you're out of luck. When you consider someone in this group, they are likely young, ambitious, career-centered, and craving energized urban atmospheres that support that lifestyle. Cleveland Park feels like a suburb.
- SW, DC said at 11:52 am on Friday August 9, 2013:
@Strings Attached - I would assume a lot of people have a tough time overlooking the violence and lack of amenities and walk-ability EotR neighborhoods generally have to offer. You can't put a price on a peace on mind and an overall positive, progressive clean environment. Sure there are great views, but they are not stunning enough to move the masses. EotR needs more. Looks like it is on the way, but I can completely understand why UT and UT readers could be sour on EotR real estate. BTW I grew up on the northern end of Naylor Road and still have lots of family EotR.
- SW, DC said at 11:57 am on Friday August 9, 2013:
Oh, and SW (near waterfront metro) is a great place to get an affordable one bedroom in a neighborhood that will be BOOMING after the Wharf redevelopment, DC United Stadium and all the other development planned for the area. It has a great location in that you can walk/bike almost anywhere in the city (except way uptown of course).
- J. Martin said at 11:58 am on Friday August 9, 2013:
@StringsAttached- I agree Fairlawn, Anacostia and other areas east of the river should always be mentioned in articles like these. There are alot of things going on/planned on this side of the river; not to mention being right across from Anacostia Park. The area is very under rated and for what people are paying for U Street studios you can have a nice row home here or new construction ie. Sheridan Station (which is now sold out by the way) for $250k. Since I've lived here the neighbor hood is definitely changing and becoming more diverse economically and racially. The row houses here are charming and the views of DC are the best!
- SL said at 12:22 pm on Friday August 9, 2013:
For 1BR units I would recommend Adams Morgan 's Lanier Heights as an even better option - mostly older co-op buildings that are a lower price per sq ft than new construction condos in trendier areas, but a more fun neighborhood for younger buyers. If Lanier Heights is too expensive , you can still get 1 BR units in Petworth for under 300K, that are walkable to metro and also Columbia Heights.
- AnacostiaFan said at 1:36 pm on Friday August 9, 2013:
@SW, DC - many neighborhoods east of the river have great walkability and growing amenities. Take a look at Anacostia - Martin Luther King Ave coming off of the new 11th street bridge is a classically walkable neighborhood with great transportation access (metro, buses, capitol bike share, and of course 295) not to mention gorgeous views of the monuments. The H Street Playhouse just became the Anacostia Playhouse, and has relocated to Shannon Place. The area is bikable to Capitol Hill too. Haven't seen much more violent crime in this neighborhood than we see in other parts of the city - in recent years. With the new DC United Stadium coming over and the new Reeves Center, it seems like the area is a great investment too.
- EmptyNester said at 1:43 pm on Friday August 9, 2013:
Anacostia fan
sure historic anacostia has lots of potential. But the places cited earlier were NOT historic anacostia, but places EOTR with more suburban layouts - if thats what you want, there are lots of suburbs where you can find that - at higher cost/longer commute, but with better schools and less crime. Historica Anacostia has the walkability, but it IIUC it has higher crime than many of those other areas EOTR. maybe that will change soon - with the redevelopment of Barry Farms, the streetcar, the opening of St E's and the movement of more DC offices there.
- 3rd Generation Washingtonian said at 2:19 pm on Friday August 9, 2013:
If people want to stay IN NW,DC- Another neighborhood to look at is Brightwood… they have homes under $300k too.
If people are open to other quadrants of DC- Trinidad, Fairlawn, Congress Heights are also options.
People do need to realize that each neighborhood has its own personality and also as long as your looking for something near a metro or HIGHLY accessible (meaning you don't need to drive to get to the bus/metro stop, or the bus runs pretty frequently in the night) by public transit you WILL be paying a pretty penny!..
Another person also mentioned Hyattsville (another up and coming area), but prices in this area are also going up… I'm just saying people will need to keep their options open and not get tunnel vision (especially if they have a set budget). D.C. (as well as the neighborhoods surrounding it) is not what it used to be, with the fast growing population it IS getting crowded and we all know what happens when there's higher demand!!!....
- 3rd Generation Washingtonian said at 2:27 pm on Friday August 9, 2013:
@SW,DC the Columbia Heights area its fair share of crime still believe it or not (but has improved since the early 90s)! I saw three teenage kids snatch a girl's purse in front of my house. I think people just want to be there because it looks new and shiny, and has more attractions and other places around it are more accessible. U St also has crime, but people are still there?...
- jag said at 3:50 pm on Friday August 9, 2013:
Why would someone choose EotR instead of the places mentioned in this article? Serious question. I don't get it. As the article notes, you get get a pretty good bang for you buck without sacrificing safety, amenities, public transit access, good schools, walkability, etc. in places like downtown Silver Spring. Why would someone actively choose EotR over that? The prospect of big $$ when you go to sell after dealing with the bad times? Or is there something else I'm missing? TIA.
- Mary said at 9:19 am on Saturday August 10, 2013:
"East of the River" is a pretty broad brush to be tarring very different neighborhoods with. I mean, EoTR includes Hillcrest which has no issues with crime and nicer houses than Michigan Park with no better or worse transit access. While Historic Anacostia has really charming housing stock, a lot of potential for business along MLK, good transit, and still quite a bit of crime.
On the leafy, suburban and quiet neighborhoods, in addition to Hillcrest, I'd point out Cheverly. Low crime, right at a metro station, very affordable homes and even a little tennis and swim club for the neighborhood. If you have kids you'll have to do the charter/private school thing in any of the neighborhoods talked about here, though.
I concur that SW is a great buy for one and two bedrooms (and there are still rowhouses with decent space selling in the 400s although more in the 500-700s now, I think) close to transit. Brookland also has condos at similar price points, with transit…and, bonus, a nice built in pool of future renters if you want to hang onto said started condo as an investment.
- Eponymous said at 9:26 am on Monday August 12, 2013:
Another comment for Hyattsville! It's one of the few places near a Metro where it's still quite possible to find a very nice house with a yard for under $400k (though most homes that go on the market in that range do need work).
I don't think SW is a very good option - most of the properties for sale there are co-ops, and from what I understand it can be hard to obtain financing (even if you are comfortable with the concept of owning a co-op outside of New York City - which I'm not).
- Mary said at 9:45 am on Monday August 12, 2013:
On coops - yes, there are three coops in SW (in addition to many condo buildings) but financing isn't all that complicated, so that in and of itself shouldn't be daunting. The principal difference is that they usually require you to use one of several agreed upon lenders (all of them include banks like PNC and Bank of America on thier list). And banks typically will only give conventional fixed term mortgages (so no ARMs or jumbo loans) for coops and, these days, require a 10 or 20% down payment. The upside of all of this is that they have a very low foreclosure rate, which is quite nice for your home value.
- SW, DC said at 9:51 am on Monday August 12, 2013:
@AnacostiaFan - sure you can walk in Historic Anacostia, but by walk-ability I meant actually walking somewhere. For the time being, there are little options. Not saying options are not coming, but they clearly aren't there yet. And as far as I remember the new soccer stadium is slated for SW (WotR). Of course that development will ultimately help Anacostia, but for now unless you are looking to make a savvy, long term investment, I would steer clear of LIVING EotR. And I spend A LOT of time EotR for business, family, and drinks at Union Town. Try walking to the top of W St. after drinks at Union Town. You may never make it!!!
- SomePerspective said at 12:07 pm on Monday August 12, 2013:
@SW, DC you keep talking about EofTR like its the same. Some very nice places EoTR with very low/comparable crime to NW counterparts. It depends on what you are looking for. There is a beautiful english style Tudor home on woodcrest dr on sale right now for the price of a 1000ft condo in some of these NW areas being mentioned. To each their own, but you paint with a very broad brush my friend. Not everyone has the same priorities, fears, or prejudices for that matter. To broadly state EoTR is not a place for people to "LIVE" begs so many questions.
- Brock said at 9:06 pm on Monday August 12, 2013:
No Petworth? Seems like Petworth is worth mentioning. right on metro, 2 miles from ColHi (but safer) and still affordable. Am I missing something?
- lajoyce said at 9:24 pm on Monday August 12, 2013:
North Petworth. There are condos and some houses and also coops that are crazy affordable compared to fancier neighborhoods. And I agree about Lamond-Riggs. Nice and quiet but convenient.
- Jorge said at 4:16 pm on Tuesday August 13, 2013:
To Brock, Pet worth is safer than ColHi? Yes you are missing something
- aasnow said at 1:25 pm on Thursday August 15, 2013:
downtown Silver Spring definitely deserves it's place on this list. Most of the pros and few of the cons of both urban and suburban living. It's a lifestyle in higher and higher demand and I don't see that tapering off anytime soon.
- Drew said at 6:52 am on Sunday August 18, 2013:
Check out Riverdale Park. Walking distance to the MARC train, between two metro stops, well inside the beltway, and close to UMD. The town has several 3 bedrooms with larger lots which sell for 250k to 300k. Popular Farmers market and at the north end of the Route 1 Arts District.

This cutting must have taken you sometime... Then again... I think all of your layouts MUST take you time. haha. It looks really cool
Project - Vero Beach {Studio Calico: May Kits} by kinseywilson posted 05/15/13 at 05:18 PM Galleries: Scrapbooking The timing of this kit could not be more perfect since we just got back from Florida- lots of beach time while we were there and photos galore! As soon as I laid eyes on the grey wave patterned paper, I knew I wanted to bust out the craft knife and go to town on it, and that I did. I opted to leave some of the cut out areas 'bare' and then I added patterned paper to the other sections. I used foam dots to pop the wave paper and add some dimension. |

This has to be one of MS mental cases. First he divorces his wife and three children for his male lover, then he steals a small fortune from the state and city and now he wants the people to reelect him because he hasn't stolen all he can from the state as of yet. This man needs to be committed to a mental institution for evaluation.

Oban Inn a comfortable and relaxing place to stay
Posted Nov 18, 2013Pros: Location. Tranquility of inn. Great bed. Good breakfast.
Cons: Would be nice to have a fridge in room. And front desk could have been more friendly and attentive when checking in.
Location: There are some great restaurants close by. The downtown stores are a bit touristy, but fun. And there are plenty of wineries you can drive to.
We had a few days vacation before starting a new job, so decided to book a nice three day get-away to Niagara-on-the-Lake. We didn't want to stay a a very big hotel, so when we found a room at the Oban Inn and Spa, we jumped at it. The Oban Inn has only 27 rooms, and when we were there only 7 were filled (it is definitely off-season). The room we had (which was an upgrade) was wonderful. A very cozy room with an incredibly comfortable queen size bed. The inn is very much geared towards adults. While we didn't use the facilities, there is a great looking spa on the premise. And this also gives the inn a very tranquil feeling. For us, a continental breakfast was included in the cost of the room, and it consisted of hard boiled eggs, ham, toast, juice and croissants. The location of the inn is great. It is very close the water, and off of the main road of the town, so it has a much quieter feel, but you are only a few blocks away from the stores and restaurants. I highly recommend the Oban Inn for a relaxing and romantic getaway.

Nestled in the heart of Niagara on the Lake
Posted Nov 18, 2013Pros: The comfortable, clean, elegant room.
Cons: No improvements required
Location: Wineries, shopping, restaurants, the lake.
We had a dinner event at one of the local wineries and wanted to be just a short taxi ride away. Oban is nicely nestled in the heart of Niagara on the Lake. Our stay was short but we found this historic inn to be modern feeling while still holding historic charm and character. The staff were very pleasant and accommodating. The complimentary breakfast in the sun room was very nice.

Great couple's getaway
Posted Sep 10, 2013 on Hotels.comWonderful accommodations, staff and restaurant. Elegant and yet down to earth. Only suggestion would be to offer more breakfast variety for multi night stays as it got a bit repetitive by the third morning. Loved location, which is walking distance to Queen street but off the lake which made it both convenient and yet a peaceful retreat away from it all. Would definitely return.

And here we have a new interview! For Prevention Magazine, November's issue – mind you, right now I seriously want to punch that doctor she had. Also, honorary Glee member? Bring it on! Anyway, here you have it, happy reading!
With a new TV series and more energy now than in her 20s, Dana Delany is healthier and happier than ever.
Dana Delany is the rare actress who actually shows up early to a photo shoot. Even before her 9 AM call time, her hair is up in rollers and she's chatting with the makeup artist. This is all the more surprising when she gingerly holds up her hand to show two broken fingers encased in a splint, and reveals that she was in a car accident the day before. (She will gamely remove the splint for most of the photographs.) "I was hit by a big bus in Santa Monica," she explains.
In an eerie coincidence, the actress's new TV series, Body of Proof, finds her playing Dr. Megan Hunt, a brilliant neurosurgeon whose career ends when a car crash injures her hand. ("I didn't know I was a Method actress, but I guess I am!" Delany says.) The drama follows the character's adjustment to a new career as a brash medical examiner.
It's yet another strong female role for the 54-year-old actress, who's garnered accolades and legions of fans, beginning with her turn as a Vietnam War nurse in China Beach, to her recent role as deliciously nutty Katherine Mayfair on Desperate Housewives. To Delany, the new series feels like the right path. As she puts it, "I feel I have this sort of divinely protected life, and things happen mysteriously."
Getting Her Hands Dirty
You play a medical examiner—what research did you have to do, and did it freak you out?
I went to see an autopsy at a coroner's office. I had no problem with it. When you first look at the body, your brain makes the association, He looks like a friend of mine. But once they started cutting, I wanted to know where everything was, how it worked, how it connected. I held the brain in my hands. It was heavy and cold.
But I did have one issue. When you cut open the body, the intestines spill out, and it looks like sausage. So I'm not sure that I can ever eat foie gras or turkey sausage again.
Playing Doctor – for Real
It sounds like you have the stomach to be in the medical field.
My grandfather was a doctor, a GP, in Brooklyn. When I was young, I used to love reading his medical journals and looking at these pus-filled, bloody growths in color photographs. So I think that I have a pretty good relationship with death. Ever since I was a little kid, it wasn't something I feared.
Sweating It Out on the Mat
Coming from a medical family, did your exercise habits start at a young age?
I have to give my mother some credit because she was doing Pilates back in the Sixties, so I've always been very conscious of exercise. In the Eighties, I was living in New York and I did Pilates; then I moved to LA in 1986 and nobody was doing it, so I switched to yoga. And I absolutely love it. I usually do a "flow" class—a lot of Downward-Facing Dog, jumping into positions, a modified version of Ashtanga series. But I'll do any kind of yoga—I mean, even the easiest yoga is restorative.
Why She Doesn't Miss the '80s
How else do you work up a sweat?
I have a treadmill. I don't run—I walk—and for just a half hour. I'll watch Nurse Jackie while I do it. And I love to dance. I was recently in London doing press and the cast from Glee was there, and I sort of became an honorary Glee member. We all went out dancing at a nightclub, which was the most fun in the world!
What cracked me up is all these kids just love the Eighties music, and I was around in the Eighties, so I don't like it as much as they do.
So hearing "Holiday" by Madonna doesn't make you especially happy?
Not at all. [Laughs] I remember dancing with Madonna at [Eighties-era Manhattan nightclub] Danceteria!
Would you ever do Dancing with the Stars?
I would like to be on it if only to get in great shape! But would I have to wear all those sequins?
Dangerous Bingeing
Did you ever have any bad health habits?
When I was a teenager and in my 20s, I had eating issues. I binged. I starved. I was one step away from anorexia—a piece of toast and an apple would be all I'd eat in a day.
How did you get it under control?
When I turned 30, my life got interesting and I stopped focusing on eating. Part of it was doing China Beach. I needed to have energy to work those long hours, and so I started eating more healthily.
The Foods She Avoids
What is healthy eating for you?
I don't like meat, so I don't eat it. I just prefer vegetables, tofu, and fish. And recently I was told by my endocrinologist that I am gluten intolerant. I'm not supposed to eat bread or pasta, which is really hard when you don't eat meat. But I'm trying gluten-free pasta, bread. It makes you less bloated and sluggish when you cut it out of your diet.
Sweet Indulgences
Do you have a guilty pleasure food?
I have a piece of dark chocolate every day as my little reward. And I love Vosges Haut-Chocolat—oh my God, they have the most delicious flavors.
Botched Botox
Ever tried injectables or cosmetic surgery?
[Pause] Something nobody ever talks about is doctor error. Seven years ago, I had never even heard about Botox. My dermatologist was saying, "You should try it." He injected my forehead, hit a nerve, and created a huge hematoma. The nerve has been dead ever since. It affected the muscle
in my right eye, so my eye has started to droop a little bit. Now that I said this to you, everybody will look for it! I notice it more than anybody else, but I was symmetrical before and now I am not. I stopped going to him right then. Doctors are human—they make mistakes. But I never went back, especially after he wouldn't own up to it.
So, no plastic surgery for you?
I won't do it, no.
Aging Gracefully in Hollywood
And yet all of Hollywood seems to be doing it.
We are getting to the point that nobody says, "That's a beautiful woman." Instead, they say, "She's had good work." And I hope that at some point we can stop dyeing our hair. I'm not saying I'm not dyeing my hair—I have to because I'm on camera—but wouldn't it be nice? We would all save so much money and time. My hat's off to Jamie Lee Curtis. She's so smart, and she doesn't dye her hair or anything. And Meryl Streep still looks like herself. Diane Keaton, too. I think the really great actresses don't worry about that kind of thing.
Sweepstakes! Get Dana's Glow
Win Dana Delany's favorite chocolates and anti-aging skin care line.
To what does Delany attribute her gorgeous glow? "Twenty years ago, a dermatologist recommended Nu Skin products, and I've been using them ever since," she says of the anti-aging brand based in Provo, UT. Dana's favorites from the Epoch line include Nu Skin's Celltrex CoQ10 Complete, which she puts on every morning, and Ultra Recovery Fluid, which goes on before bed.

Hanging out with the kids from Glee… I love this woman. No meat? What will Bree say!!? =0P
Wow I would have bet she had never try Botox, seeing how you can tell she doesnt have her face frozen like the other 3 housewives, anyways I'll help you kill that doctor. I'm glad she is turning her back on surgery and Botox, one of the reasons why she is so physically appeling is because she looks natural.
Thanks for sharing!
Yes, Dana should play a bitch on Glee, Sue's BFF or just a random teacher that likes to play along with Sue and make those geeks i mean gleeks miserable for an hour.
Or better yet, have her be Sue's ultimate enemy and have them declare war to each other and see who can make them the most miserable… poor things.
I wonder if she had share this botox story with Marcia, because she really loooooves her botox, and should stop, she's starting to looks as plastic as Nicole Kidman.
And that doc better watch his back, *grabs torch*
i am a certified Gleek and i really love the TV Show GLEE. Diana is very pretty ~;*

Callisburg —
The staff of the ever-developing Abigail's Arms women's crisis center recently grew by two — and the agency's outreach possibilities have grown with it.
Carmen Rubio joined the agency as a primary prevention specialist on Dec. 3, and former Cooke County Home Hospice official Kathi Kirby is set to become an Abigail's Arms volunteer coordinator and program specialist on Jan. 2.
Rubio, a former North Texas Medical Center employee, will offer bilingual service to an incoming clientele that doesn't always speak English.
"There's a language barrier; that's what's going on," Rubio said Friday. "And so they don't know there's an option out there, that there's help."
Abigail's Arms Volunteer Coordinator Kelly Fiore-Watson said one aspect to the agency's outreach situation is that not enough clients show up in person, possibly since they don't speak English and may expect that none of the staff speaks Spanish.
"We do a lot of outreach but we don't get a lot who come in," Watson said. "And that's really not our fault. But it's our responsibility to educate so that they do come in. That's why we need someone who's bilingual and has such great connections to the community. And everyone knows her. And so if Carmen says, 'This is wrong and you can get help,' they're going to listen to her."
Prior to Rubio's arrival, Spanish translation was possible but scarce; Watson had to use Google or the occasional bilingual visitor in communicating with clients.
But with the Abigail's Arms shelter facility scheduled for a summer 2013 opening and a broader clientele, Rubio's abilities will be put to good use.
"There's so much to speak for the children and the adults," Rubio said Friday. Kirby is expected to officially join Abigail's Arms on Wednesday. Similar to her work with Cooke County Home Hospice, she will organize shelter volunteers, stay involved with educational outreach and help generate new programs that profit the crisis center.
"For 13 years, I was a volunteer," Kirby said Friday. "I can relate to the volunteers. And it's really, really important with volunteers that you build a relationship and I feel like I'm really good at that. I have no qualms whatsoever about talking to a stranger. You never know when you're going to meet either someone who is a victim, or someone who knows a victim, and doesn't know what to do. So I'm looking forward to learn about a whole new area of life."
Watson said Kirby's career change from end-of-life care to the process of aiding abuse victims will create a benefit for everyone involved.
"She comes to us with a long history in this community of leading volunteers," she said. "And at Home Hospice, it's not that she was unhappy there, but she was ready for a change. And we're blessed, since she comes with an insight and education about people."
Currently, the new employees are operating alongside Abigail's Arms administration in an office at 114 N. Dixon St. in Gainesville. But as reported in recent Register stories, the official and full-scale Abigail's Arms shelter is on track to opening by mid-2013, with nothing poised to prevent that.
"It looks phenomenal," Watson said about the facility in development on East Highway 82 in Gainesville. "Every day, there's more that's added, and there's nothing to explain the enthusiasm you have when you walk inside that building, knowing how this is going to impact families and generations of families."

COSTLY VISITS February 27, 1997TRANSCRIPT |
For two straight days President Clinton denied there was any improper use of the Lincoln Bedroom and other White House functions in raising campaign funds for his 1996 re-election campaign. Jim Lehrer leads a discussion with Ann Lewis, assistant to the President, and White House Deputy Director of Communications, and three regional commentators who disagree with the President's view.
JIM LEHRER: We go first again tonight to the continuing White House money story. For two straight days President Clinton has denied there was any improper use of the Lincoln Bedroom and other White House functions in raising campaign funds for his 1996 re-election campaign. But also for two straight days he's been hammered on many editorial and op-ed pages who disagree. Washington Post columnist William Raspberry was among many who spoke out today, writing: "Selling--nights in the White House is so crass a thing, so close to the possibility and appearance if not the actuality of corruption--and such god-awful judgment on Clinton's part--that I cannot imagine any defense of it." Well, we test the Raspberry premise now with Ann Lewis, assistant to the President, and White House Deputy Director of Communications, and three regional commentators who share Raspberry's views to varying degrees. Mike Barnicle of the Boston Globe; Lee Cullum of the Dallas Morning News; and Robert Kittle of the San Diego Union Tribune.Lee Cullum, "crass" was Raspberry's word. What word would you use?
LEE CULLUM, Dallas Morning News: Yes, it is crass. It's vulgar. It's terrible taste. The Dallas Morning News had two editorials this week, not one but two, calling for a special prosecutor in this matter. You know, the White House has simply gone too far. I'm not naive. I know that people have given money to presidents for years, and, in return, they get certain courtesies. Maybe they get invited to a party every now and then, and certainly somebody calls them up if they place a call and say they've got problems, but this has been a systematic selling of the White House in bits and pieces. It's gone too far, and it's way out of hand. It is crass.
JIM LEHRER: Crass, Ann Lewis?
ANN LEWIS, White House Deputy Communications Director: If that were true, if those accusations were true, crass would be a mild word. The White House is a very special building. I have the privilege of working there every day. And I truly feel it's a privilege. President and Mrs. Clinton have the privilege of living there. And they know it is a privilege. They also have the privilege of sharing that opportunity with their friends.
And one of the reasons we made all the list public of the people who had stayed at the White House over these four years, those 938 names, was so the public could see for themselves how many of these people were old friends, literally friends from high school, friends from college, friends from Arkansas, people the Clintons had known for 20 years, and how they had reached out to their friends partly because, as I say, they really wanted to share this wonderful opportunity, and partly because, as President Clinton has said, he believes it's an important to keep meeting and hearing from people. But I have to repeat anyone who was invited to the White House came as a personal guest. Anyone who was there was there because the Clintons chose personally to extend hospitality to them. I think that's a very important distinction, and one that should not get lost in some of these headlines we're seeing.
JIM LEHRER: But the headlines we're seeing, the op-ed page pieces today, the columns were really tough, and the editorials all over the country. We had a stack of them that we looked at--that I looked at a while ago. They don't buy what you just said. They don't think there was a connection between those people coming and fund-raising.
ANN LEWIS: Again, I can understand the concern if all this information, people are hearing it for the first time, and then look at that list, and say, wow, some of those people were fund-raisers and supporters. But then again, let's use some examples. Let's take someone that the President met as a roommate in college who later turns out as a supporter of his campaigns. He didn't get invited as a supporter. He got invited because he's a friend, who then also supported him. I would have to say, if I turned it into a reverse, I would hope my friends, the people who knew me best, would support me when I became a candidate. I would hope the people who had known me over the years would also support my question to be President of the United States. But what's most important is that I would keep in contact with my friends and that I would continue to reach out to people, both people I had known and people I was meeting along the way. And I think as the public sees the list again, hears people speaking for themselves and saying I came, it was lovely.
Here's from some hometown friends from Little Rock who say they heard we were going to be in town, and they asked us to stay, and they asked our family to stay, and it was the most special thing that could have happened; I think it's very important for people to get that perspective.
JIM LEHRER: Robert Kittle, you have been harsh. You and your newspaper have been harsh in criticizing this. After hearing Ann Lewis, do you see it any differently?
ROBERT KITTLE, San Diego Union-Tribune: I'm sorry. I just don't buy it, and I don't buy it because we have it in the President's own handwriting in the documents that were released by the White House this week the evidence that he was encouraging these overnights in the White House, these sleep-overs in the White House for money. It was in connection with the memo that suggested how much could be raised by inviting guests to the White House. The President said in his own handwriting, please give me the list of the top ten contributors and those who can give $50 or $100,000. And he said let's begin the overnights right away.
It is simply incredibly naive for anyone to expect that a person who gives $50,000 or $100,000 after sleeping over at the White House does so for no other reason than the pleasure of sleeping at the White House and being a friend of the President's. You know, only inside the Washington beltway is this myth perpetuated that there's no connection between large campaign contributions and buying influence and buying favors. The American people don't buy it. It just won't wash, I'm sorry. It's just not believable. We understand that money is the mother's milk of politics, and unfortunately, a lot of people are very cynical about that. But the reality is that the President was using the White House in a very tawdry way as a kind of very profitable Motel 6 to raise money for the Democratic Party to help himself to get re-elected. To suggest there's no connection between the money and the sleep-overs is crazy.
ANN LEWIS: Well, I'm not crazy. I'm quite sane. And let me go back to the very same memo that Mr. Kittle was talking about which starts with a list that was given him by Terry McCullough who was about to be the--
JIM LEHRER: Given to the President.
ANN LEWIS: It was given to the President.
JIM LEHRER: All right.
ANN LEWIS: Said here are your top ten supporters on the first page. Of those top ten supporters the majority were not invited to stay overnight at the White House. If, in fact, Mr. Kittle's--excuse me--but rather simplistic expression is this must have been about money were true, those would have been the first people invited. That wasn't so.
Second, interestingly, today we did a year-by-year analysis of how many people would come. We found that more people stayed at the White House in the two years before that memo than in the two years after. The reasons are pretty clear. By 1996 the President and Mrs. Clinton the second half of that year were spending a lot of time going around the country campaigning. They weren't home. The people they invited in the first two years as their personal guests they had more time and more chance to entertain.
But think for a moment at the context here, Jim. Think what the President is doing in 1995. Leading a fight against a Congress that had shut down the government twice, that was trying to cancel the Department of Education, roll back environmental regulations. Think of all he achieved in those difficult times. He took on the tobacco companies. We have regulations that will start tomorrow against marketing tobacco to children. He stood up to the National Rifle Association so that we have those laws still on the books banning assault weapons and the Brady Bill. That's what he was doing in 1995. He was leading the country as president, as he should have been.
JIM LEHRER: What about Mr. Kittle's point--this has also been made a major point by many people in the last 24 hours, was the President's personal handwriting said, hey, give me the names of the others.
ANN LEWIS: As the President has said--and I think we can go back and look at this--he had a conversation with Terry. Remember, he had asked Terry McCullough to be his campaign finance chair for the campaign. Terry went out, being very good, and asked people who had supported the President in 1992. He came back and in the conversation to the President said, "You know, some of your old friends, some of the people who really worked hard for you in �92, think they've been left out; they haven't heard from you." Again, after that meeting with Terry, thinking his in his own office with his own staff about this, made a list of three things. He said, one, I'm going to move forward on the program Terry recommended, and all that's in the memo; we will start bringing people--
JIM LEHRER: That's why he wrote that in--
ANN LEWIS: Yes. And second, he said, I want to know who those people are who gave or raised $100,000. I want to thank them when I see them. And third, he said--and this is where we see the word "overnights"--maybe there are some of these old friends I ought to be bringing back in so I can see them in a less formal, non-official setting.
JIM LEHRER: Mike Barnicle, how does this look to you?
MIKE BARNICLE, Boston Globe: Oh, man, Jim, this is--I'm getting tired just listening to this. You know, let's give the President all of those admirable accomplishments that Ms. Lewis listed. Depending on your point of view, they are admirable, and he did, indeed, work in 1995. I have no doubt of that. I don't think most people do. But clearly, on the record, there was an insatiable appetite for huge sums of money, millions and millions of dollars, to be raised for the campaign, for daily polling data that they would incorporate into speeches, for focus groups that they would use for reference in terms of strategy, millions of dollars were raised. I assume that occupied a good portion of the President's time.
When he had come to explain it a few weeks ago, it's no, no, no, that was the DNC doing that. Well, now it turns out that it was little more than the DNC. Here is the problem with President Clinton I think. I think many, many people look at him and they admire many things about him, but they view him as the sort of the teen-ager who leaves the house with the car keys, takes the car. He's gone for a considerable amount of time. He comes home. You ask him, "Where have you been; who have you been with, what have you done?" and you never get quite a straight answer. You have to extract the truth.
People get tired of extracting the truth from this President, and the fact that we've gone from Churchill in the White House during World War II to Chevy Chase in the White House today I think has a lot to do with people's level of expectation of both this President and the government. This is the White House. It's a House that belongs to us, children learn about in school, burned down in the 1800's. Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation there. And now it's for rent.
JIM LEHRER: Now it's for rent, Lee Cullum? Is that the message from this? Do you read it that way?
LEE CULLUM: Well, I do, Jim. If I'm not mistaken, a brochure was put out. Now to the President's credit, I think he wrote a memo saying this is terrible; this is awful. He underscored awful. And it certainly was awful. A brochure from the DNC outlining the benefits for contributing. But, you know, I'm inclined to agree with Mike Barnicle. And maybe I romanticize the White House, but I believe appropriately distinguished citizens should be invited to stay there, people who have genuinely served the public good. That's what makes sense to me. I think--you know, I think back to the days of LBJ, and he was hardly pure--I know that--but in those days Bob Strauss chaired a President's Club here in Dallas, co-chaired it, and I think you gave a thousand dollars and you got to be a member of the President's Club. And what you got in return was you got to go to a local hotel and hear Hubert Humphrey make a speech. This has become a very slick, sophisticated operation compared to that. And it's simply gone too far.
JIM LEHRER: Gone too far?
ANN LEWIS: Well, let me go back. I started by agreeing with some of what Mike Barnicle said. First, as I think he and I would agree, the President in 1995 achieved a lot that was admirable and we ought all to be thankful for. This economy, this country are moving in the right direction. Second, campaigns today cost too much, and the President has said that. They cost too much money, and you have to spend more money than--you have to spend more time than you should raising it. That's why he so strongly argues for campaign finance reform, has endorsed specific legislation, has brought people into the White House to say it. On the other hand, I've got to argue again very strongly, one, just as a matter of fact, for example, this campaign didn't take focus groups. There was so much exaggeration out there about what campaigns are like that I want to get back to reality.
JIM LEHRER: But the point that all three of these folks are making, and that all these editorials are making is that, yes, campaigns need money; yes, people are invited to the White House who are favorable to the President, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. But this particular President, this particular campaign went too far. You will not--you do not agree with that.
ANN LEWIS: The example I keep hearing is but--again, people were staying at the White House because they were contributors. They were not. People stayed at the White House because they were personal guests. Mike Barnicle and Lee Cullum said they should be distinguished citizens. Look at that list. We have some very distinguished citizens. Look at the numbers of governors. Look at Kathleen Battle. Look at the sort of world class Americans we can all be proud of. And then look at the ordinary people, the people from Arkansas, the people that the Clintons had known in high school and college. They kept bringing in their friends, and let me leave that with one more point. We have a President here who says I'm going to keep reaching out and talking to people and listening to them because I don't ever want to be isolated. And this is the first chance I have sitting over coffee in the family quarters sometimes in the morning, having breakfast. This is sometimes the only chance I have in the course of a day to talk to real people about what's happening in the real world. I'm going to get isolated from that.
JIM LEHRER: Robert Kittle, are discussions like this only happening inside the beltway? You mentioned that before. Is this kind of thing being discussed in San Diego?
ROBERT KITTLE: I think it's being discussed, but unfortunately, I think an awful lot of Americans are rather blase about this, and they are blase about it because it's--that sort of reflects that cynical view that politics and all politicians are corrupt and that money buys everything and that money makes the difference. And, you know, that's the unfortunate thing about this. And, of course, it's not the President's personal friends that anyone is concerned about. It's not Chelsea's friends who were invited to the White House to spend the night. It's those people who, as the New York Times reported this week, contributed $9.1 million to the Democratic Party's coffers, who in the case of a number of people quoted by the New York Times, fund-raisers approached them and let them know that if they were $50,000 contributors or $100,000 contributors, there would be an invitation to have coffee with the President, or to spend the night in the White House. And it's that. It's that pervasive, pernicious influence of money in the political process that people certainly ought to care about.
JIM LEHRER: All right.
ANN LEWIS: Can I just point out, Jim, that even in that article, that particular charge that people were told they could spend the night in the White House was not made. There is a kind of exaggeration around this that's been going on. I hope we can get back to the facts, so people could see for themselves because they're going to be much more comfortable when they do.
JIM LEHRER: Thank you all very much.
