If you can't get jolly for the holidays without your annual Scrooge fix, you're in luck. More than a handful of Los Angeles theaters are staging the Dickens classic A Christmas Carol "" or delivering new tales inspired by the timeless curmudgeon of Christmas. With offerings ranging from the traditional to the twisted and tawdry, there is something for everyone. Bah, humbug!
A Christmas Carol Sierra Madre Playhouse (Sierra Madre)
Sierra Madre Playhouse keeps its tacit agreement with holiday audiences by providing a full-blown family classic for kids of all ages. Adapted and directed by Christina Harris, the traditional tale is brought to life with a large ensemble cast of 29 "" including several young performers "" and plenty of familiar holiday songs designed to warm hearts for the holiday season.
Harris' script draws directly on the original text for structure and language but also includes new scenes not in the book. "I wanted scenes between Scrooge and his younger sister, Fanny," says Harris. "The arc to the Fanny story offers a deeper understanding of Scrooge. I want people to understand his past "" his heartache and heartbreak."
Harris uses 10″"12 musical selections "" under the musical direction of Rich Dembowski "" to help transition the play's action across space and time. And, while some directors may shy away from casting young performers, Harris delights not only in their innate sense of freedom on stage but also the immediacy they bring to every performance.
"I also wanted something that felt spiritual without being overtly religious," says Harris. "We've found something that is familiar but still new for audiences who know the story well. It's a chance to rediscover it."
A Christmas Carol A Noise Within (Pasadena)
With just over a year in its new theater space, the "Home for the Classics" theater company brings Scrooge, Tiny Tim and Bob Cratchit to the stage for the first time in 10 years.
Penned by co-artistic director Geoff Elliott (who shares directing duties with co-artistic director Julia Rodriguez-Elliott), the script is a pure adaptation directly from the source material. "[Dickens] was such a dramatist with an intuitive sense," says Elliott. "His novels can so seamlessly be brought to the stage. I really just pulled all of his words to create this adaptation."
But Elliott ensures there's nothing stodgy about this rendition of the story, which Dickens first published in 1843. Plenty of edge can be found in the production, from Victorian-inspired design elements to the original music from Los Angeles' ever-eclectic composer Ego Plum.
Staging Carol for the first time in ANW's new 283-seat theater (built from the ground up and opened last year) has made this production an important milestone in the company's 20-year history. Elliott is particularly thrilled to be stepping into the shoes of Scrooge.
"With all the work we do, but especially with [A Christmas Carol], we feel the importance of the play's message," says Elliott. "That we can all be present enough to see the beauty in people around us "" it gives us all a sense of responsibility telling the story."
A Christmas Carol GTC Burbank (Burbank)
After a limited run last year of this intimate take "" in which a three-person cast performs with a minimalist set, few props and mere suggestions of costumes "" GTC Burbank is remounting Carol as adapted and directed by GTC artistic director Kevin Cochran. David Allen Jones (playing Scrooge) is joined by Frank Simons and Kate Danley, who play multiple characters.
"People who love A Christmas Carol and have seen it a dozen times really like this one," says Cochran. "It's a different way to see it and really hear the words. My goal was getting back to the original."
Cochran notes Dickens' love for the theater and storytelling in Victorian England, the author often writing his narratives as stories meant to be shared and spoken aloud. Cochran says he found no reason to deviate from the original text other than determining what to cut, keeping the show at a lean 80 minutes in performance. He believes this year's production offers an improved version after last year's first outing and collaboration with the actors to refine the text and staging for 2012.
"[Carol] has earned the same position in theater that Nutcracker has for ballet," says Cochran. "It truly is one of the great stories of all time, both the holiday part of it and the human part of it."
A Mulholland Christmas Theatre of NOTE (Hollywood)
At Theatre of NOTE, a cast of 17 actors is playing more than 100 roles in this musical comedy based on the true history of California's Water Wars in the early 20th century and the machinations of Los Angeles power-mogul William Mulholland.
"I really wanted to tell the Mulholland story," says Bill Robens, writer of the book and music. "It seemed natural to use the redemption story of Scrooge as a template."
Mulholland was first produced at NOTE 10 years ago, receiving critical acclaim and winning over company members to what its current director Alina Phelan describes as its "historically accurate, wildly funny but moving" storyline.
"This show is very beloved by our company," says Phelan. "But there's a tonal shift from the previous version. We're going for a more bluegrass and unplugged feel with the sound."
The revival has some new elements, including a new song. While presented with a strong dose of fun, the politics and themes of water conservation remind these storytellers of the larger issues percolating beneath the spoof-riddled antics.
"It gives you the perfect holiday spirit," Phelan says. "It's a great history lesson "" and a reminder that battles for water are still happening "" but it's also silly and has a message, which can be unexpected."
Jacob Marley's Christmas Carol And So We Make Art (Downtown Los Angeles)
And So We Make Art features a core group of collaborative artists exploring several forms and styles of performance. According to company founder Casey Kringlen, this production of Jacob Marley's Christmas Carol by Tom Mula combines elements of a haunted house and Cirque du Soleil-inspired theatricality for intimate audiences averaging only 40 people "" all within a 7,000-square-foot warehouse. This is not your grandma's Christmas Carol.
"How it's presented is as far away from traditional as you can get," says Kringlen. "But when you get down to it, the spiritual arc of the story is the same "" and it's all from Jacob Marley's perspective."
Last year, the company developed a 10-minute selection of the Marley text as a workshop performance with full design elements. This process helped the company create an "audience immersive" aesthetic for bringing the entire play to the stage in the über-hip Six01 Studio, a transformative performance space/art gallery/sound stage in downtown Los Angeles.
Kringlen describes the creative freedom instilled in the company through the collaborative process and the fun of staging what is essentially a ghost story in such a cavernous space. But themes of redemption and transformation remain as Marley is compared to the original Dickens story.
"This is the kind of piece you have to experience and let your expectations go," says Kringlen. "The action happens all around you; there's no possibility you're going to be bored. In fact, you're going to be on the edge of your seat."
A Christmas Twist SeaGlass Theatre (Burbank)
Combining two Dickens classics "" Oliver Twist and A Christmas Carol "" writers Doug Armstrong, Keith Cooper and Maureen Morley create a completely new tale with a holiday message and Monty Python sense of humor for SeaGlass Theatre.
"If you love Christmas, you'll enjoy it. And if the holidays annoy you, you'll also enjoy it," jokes Twist director and SeaGlass managing director Paul Stroili. "It's a love letter to the holidays "" and also a preemptive strike against the season and all it entails."
With the smell of cider wafting from the lobby and Santa greeting you to snap a picture in front of the Christmas tree, SeaGlass Theatre creates what Stroili describes as "event theater" for its audiences.
"When people make that commitment to get in the car and go see a show, we want to offer something more than simply sit down to watch a play," says Stroili. "The overall experience of the evening is important to us."
As a small company whose members have roots mostly in Chicago, SeaGlass produces only one show a year with company actors gracing other stages during the remaining months. Stroili finds the company "creatively happiest" when creating work for the stage and hopes Twist will excite audiences about live performance as much as it inspires the SeaGlass team.
"There are still people out here who enjoy theater purely as the art form," says Stroili. "It's not just a springboard to film and television."

Fire Stone Home Products changes name
November 13, 2008-- Casual Living,
Fire Stone Home Products, manufacturer of outdoor room settings including fireplaces, pergolas, gas and electric grills, furniture and lighting, has changed its name to The Outdoor Greatroom Company.
While operating as Fire Stone Home Products for more than four years, the product line was expanded to include more than 100 items in the outdoor living category. The name change more appropriately identifies its current offerings and direction.
"We are really excited about our new name," said Dan Shimek, president and CEO of The Outdoor Greatroom Company. "When we started the company our product focus was mainly on our Cook Number grills. While the grills remain the heart of the Outdoor Greatroom, it has become apparent that the opportunity is to offer an expanded product line that helps the consumer create the outdoor living experience. We feel the new name allows us greater access into that market while clearly identifying to the consumer what our product line is about. It also allows us to build on our internet domain names OutdoorGreatrooms.com and OutdoorRooms.com."

I sometimes HATE my job... Or maybe this job is just not the right one for me?
I mean:
- I'm in love with food, but I'm not allowed to eat it.
- I get to wear all these amazing clothes and outfits , but I'm not capable to afford all of them.
- I travel all over the world and get to see all these amazing places, but I'm mostly there for less then 24 hours and the only thing I get to see is a f*cking studio.
- It's almost impossible to have a normal relationship.
- And where is home? I don't really have a place to call home, or does my luggage count?
Don't get me wrong I'm very thankfull and SUPER happy to be a model, but some people really do underestimate this job. They just see the glamorous and fancy side, but I guess that every job has his downsides.

Why / Research Rationale
|Assign at least two mentors to the new hire, from within & outside the department.
Offer work-life resources (such as realtors, community resources, etc.) to the new hire.
Support the new hire in processing all paperwork, including securing start-up funds, lab-space, equipment, and all Human Resources forms.
Ensure timely adherence to all negotiated items in the offer letter.
Maintain open communication with the new-hire's mentors to ensure that nothing falls through the cracks.
|Provide support networks: Underrepresented groups, members of stigmatized groups, or women who are in positions of solo-status in their departments may feel more distinctive and less satisfied with their jobs. Indeed, the "spotlight" feeling may mediate job satisfaction (Niemann & Dovidio, 1998).
Retention: Mentoring can be an effective strategy in improving retention of underrepresented faculty (Girves, Zepeda, & Gwathmey, 2005). Furthermore, the benefits of mentoring are reciprocal and benefit the institution as well by cultivating a sense of institutional ownership and belonging in the mentee. (Schrodt, Cawyer, & Sanders, 2003).
Simple, often taken-for-granted, factors can contribute to the success of new faculty (ADVANCE focus groups, 2004):

A Stat Is Born: Golf's New Way to Measure Putting
Steve Stricker falls from No. 1; Brad Faxon climbs the charts; Tiger still great; who's the best?
Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, working with the PGA Tour, have come up with a way to solve one of golf's biggest conundrums: how to determine who are the truly great putters in the game.
Putting, as any golfer with more than 30 minutes experience on an actual course will tell you, is the key to scoring. The old saw "drive for show, putt for dough" is a bedrock truth among professionals. But until now there hasn't been a reliable statistical method of measuring putting skill among the world's best golfers.
The main problem is that too many external variables come into play. The most commonly used putting statistic, "putting average, " measures the number of putts that a player takes per round when his ball lands on the green in regulation—that is, in par less two strokes (for example, in two strokes on a par-four hole). Not only does this approach exclude about 30% of putts attempted on the PGA Tour (those made on greens not reached in regulation), but it also rewards the accuracy of shots into the green as much as it does putting skill.
Chart: PGA Tour players ranked by the new putting statistic, putts gained per round, for the 2009 season. This metric, which evaluates each putt a pro makes based on distance and compares the result to the expected average of pros hitting putts of the same length, eliminates biases that distort other statistical putting measures and better identifies pure putting skill.
The chart includes three other rankings for comparison. Putting average is the number of putts taken on greens reached in regulation (par minus two strokes). It is the most often used current metric but is heavily influenced by how close to the hole a players hits his approach shots. Putts per round, the simple sum of all putts taken in a round, exaggerates the putting prowess of golfers who often miss greens, then chip it close and one-putt. Proximity to the hole is the average distance a player's approach shots finish in relation to the hole within 30 feet, even if the ball is not on the green
- MIT research paper abstract
To illustrate, Steve Stricker finished No. 1 in putting average on Tour last year in large part because he parked so many of his approach shots close to the hole. He ranked 15th in the length of his average first putt on greens reached in regulation, at 20.4 feet. Brad Faxon, on the other hand, ranked 56th in putting despite being regarded by his peers as one of the best putters in the world. The main reason: He ranked a lowly 151st in the distance of his first putts—an average of 22.5 feet, or more than two feet farther from the hole than Mr. Stricker. That may not sound like a lot, but when the gap between the Tour's best putting average and the 100th-best putting average is just 0.053 strokes per green, it's big.
Two other commonly used putting statistics have weaknesses, too. Putts per round is a measure overly generous to the player who misses a lot of greens in regulation, then chips it close and one-putts. The average feet of putts holed per round, among other problems, penalizes exceptionally good lag putters who leave themselves second putts of inches rather than feet.
Moreover, none of the above statistics take into account the relative difficulty of the greens played. Players who compete on a higher percentage of courses with tricky greens, such as at the majors, get a bum deal.
You might think, since the PGA Tour maintains a massive database of performance statstics—more than 600 for every player—that someone would have come up with a better putting metric.
Well, someone just has. A team of researchers at MIT's Sloan School of Management, using PGA Tour data, has derived a metric it calls "putts gained per round" that corrects for these and other deficiencies and provides a more accurate picture of every Tour player's true putting prowess.
The PGA Tour is so enthused by this new metric that it began work two weeks ago integrating it into its statistical ShotLink system. Working with its technology partner, CDW, it will take several months to write all the code and analyze feedback from players and staff, but if all goes well, "putts gained" will pop up as one of the Tour's core reported statistics by the end of the year. Together with other new statistics being developed by MIT and other academic institutions, "putts gained" could open up a new frontier in golf record-keeping and performance analysis comparable to the sea change in baseball statistics following Bill James's pioneering work in the 1970s and 1980s.
"Statistics can just become a big splash of numbers and not mean anything. But this, we think, will mean something," said Steve Evans, the PGA Tour's senior vice president for information systems. "It's complex to calculate, but simple to understand."
At each tournament, ShotLink mobilizes an army of up to 350 volunteer scorers and uses laser measuring devices and real-time networking technology to collect data about every shot hit. It is the engine that feeds the live scoring system at the tournaments and online, and delivers juicy tidbits to Johnny Miller up in the booth, such as the percentage of 4-foot to 8-foot putts Camilo Villegas has missed so far this season. Most of this information is not available online to the public, primarily because of the expense, but the Tour is planning a tenfold increase in the statistical categories it posts on its Web site, pgatour.com, within the next month.
The amount of raw data accumulated since 2003 when ShotLink was rolled out is colossal but underutilized. So 18 months ago the Tour began making the information available to academic institutions for research purposes. "The data set is spectacular," said Douglas Fearing, a member of the MIT team, along with Jason Acimovic and Professor Stephen Graves, that developed the new putting metric. "It gives us a chance to try out new analytic tools and experiment with complex concepts."
The first step in creating the new metric, building on the research of other academics, was to establish a baseline performance model for putts of every distance up to 100 feet, in one-inch increments. The team calls this baseline "putts to go." From 10 feet, the average number of putts that Tour pros take is 1.63. At around 30 feet, the putts-to-go average starts exceeding two. From 40, the average is 2.15.
These baseline figures (think of them as a kind of "par" for putts of each distance) are then adjusted, using statistical regression models, for two factors. The first is the relative difficulty of the greens upon which they were struck. A 10-foot putt that finishes three inches from the hole on a slippery, slopey U.S. Open green should count for more than a 10-foot putt with a similar outcome on a flat, slow green at a lesser event. The second adjustment is for the relative strength of the field in each round, so that those green-difficulty ratings, which are based solely on the results of putts taken in competition, are not biased against tournaments with many strong putters. The math involved is daunting. It took a very powerful computer at MIT several days of number crunching to come up with a statistical model that best corresponds to the data.
But then it gets fun. With this baseline established, the model compares the results of each putt a pro takes to the expected putts-to-go average on that particular green by a hypothetical average field. If a player holes a 15- footer whose value is 1.82, he gains .82 strokes on the field. If he needs two putts, he loses .18 strokes on the field. At the end of the round, the model adds up all the pluses and minuses to produce the net putts-gained statistic.
The best putter in 2009 by this measure was Luke Donald, who gained an average of 0.905 strokes on the field by virtue of his putting skill alone. Mr. Stricker, who finished No. 1 in putting average last year largely because of his proficiency with approach shots, ranked a surprising 69th in putts gained per round. (Deeper analysis by MIT showed that Mr. Stricker's ranking was also negatively affected because he happened to play on the "easiest" greens of all 166 players sampled.)
The MIT team is at work on extending the methodology to evaluate non-putting performance, in a metric it calls "off-green strokes gained per round." Early results show that Tiger Woods led the Tour in 2009 by nearly a full stroke in this category, with 2.901 off-green strokes gained. For now, the results for shots gained in different situations, such as from the fairway, from the rough or from specific distances, are not available, but that's only a matter of time.
Ultimately, sophisticated analytics like this could help players make better strategic decisions, and better focus their training regimens. But the main goal, from the Tour's perspective, is to better engage the fan. "We want people to appreciate how these guys do it," Mr. Evans said.

Fresh Android Apps for Feb. 28: Squats Pro, Meltdown on Mars THD, Parking Frenzy 2.0
by Ian Black
Welcome to the end of the month. Oh, that's right, it's a leap year which means you have one extra day this month to download some fresh Android apps. Get in shape with Squats Pro, fight to live with Meltdown on Mars THD, and practice the Y-Turn with Parking Frenzy 2.0.
Squats Pro (Free)
Take your Android to the gym with you. With apps like this, it will help you stay on track and may even pump you up.
This app aims to increase your abilities to do squats and provides a personalized plan with sets and repetitions to get you there. Hold your Android in your hands as you drop and the app will use your device's sensors to count for you. It's the latest in a series of exercise apps from NorthPark that includes Push Ups, Pull Ups, and Sit Ups. The apps share information that shows your progress across the group.
Meltdown on Mars THD ($3.99)
One is the loneliest number! You play the last survivor of a bustling Mars colony that has been overrun by huge alien bugs. You have only one mission: stay alive long enough to get off planet or until a rescue team arrives.
Fortunately, you have some serious weapons at the ready and, as you slaughter the bugs, you earn more points with which to buy automatic gun turrets, mines, barricades and other over-powered defenses. Use the landscape to your advantage by leading the aliens down tight alleys and into corners so that you can blow them away. Don't forget your Tegra-based tablet because that's what the app was designed to run on.
Parking Frenzy 2.0 (Free)
And you thought the test for your driver's license was tough. Unlike your standard racing game, this game focuses on stopping and, specifically, parking your car. Sounds easy except that you'll find many challenges like yellow construction cones, traffic, one-way streets and other cars that want your spot.
On screen controls for steering, forward and reverse, and gas pedal work like a real car. Make a mistake – like hitting a barrier – and you'll damage your vehicle and lose points. Park perfectly and you can level up through 16 stages. But, the reviews say you'll be left wanting more.

For Australians over age 65 included in a new study, being obese raised the risk of experiencing a fall by 31 percent.
"Falls are one of the most common causes of injury for older individuals and as the world population ages, the number of fall-related injuries are projected to increase rapidly," said lead author Rebecca Mitchell.
"Likewise, rates of overweight and obesity among older individuals are also increasing," added Mitchell, a researcher with Neuroscience Research Australia at the University of New South Wales.
Mitchell and her colleagues wanted to determine whether overweight and obesity added to the risk of falling among older adults, as well as the risk of being injured in a fall.
The researchers used information from the New South Wales Prevention Baseline Survey, a large Australian population study started in 2009.
A total of 5,681 people 65 years of age and older were asked about their history of falling, their perception of their own risk of falling, their general health status, medication use and activity levels.
Participants who had fallen one or more times in the previous 12 months as a result of accidentally losing their balance, tripping or slipping were also asked how many of those falls resulted in injury and how many required medical attention or led to hospital admission.
According to the results published in the Australian and New Zealand Journal of Public Health, 23 percent of healthy-weight respondents had fallen once during the previous 12 months and 34 percent had fallen more than once.
About 30 percent of obese respondents fell once and another 45 percent fell more than once, making the overall fall risk 31 percent higher in the obese group.
The obese participants who fell didn't have any higher risk of fall-related injuries compared to healthy-weight people who fell, but they were more likely to have other health conditions - such as heart disease, diabetes and high blood pressure - and to report being in moderate or extreme discomfort.
Those who were obese and fell were also more likely to be taking four or more prescription medications.
"It is difficult to know for certain why the risk of falling increases for obese individuals, but it is likely to be as a result of reduced peripheral sensation, general physical weakness and instability when standing or walking," Mitchell said.
There are a number of common risk factors that can increase any older person's risk of falling, she added.
"These can include individual factors such as: poor

Jax Taylor
Jax Taylor Introduces Current Girlfriend to Ex-Girlfriend — Awkward Alert!
Some girls do love a bad boy, which is probably why Vanderpump Rules's Jax Taylor is never lonely for long. His girlfriend Carmen Dickman has acknowledged he has a "bad boy" side, referencing his less-than-ideal behavior in the past, and Jax has admitted to being jailed several times.
And now he's committed the crime of introducing his current girlfriend to a recent ex — one he stopped seeing right when he started dating the new one. Awkward.
Carmen and Jax got together in January and split in March, but they are a couple once again. Jax's ex, Tiffany Matthews, said she's still close friends with Jax, even though they split in January right around when he started dating Carmen. She doesn't seem to have a grudge against him, but when RadarOnline asked if Carmen caused the split, Tiffany answered, "It's complicated. I'd rather not talk about it."
OK, fair enough, but Tiffany did add a note about their meeting. "Jax actually introduced me to Carmen over the weekend in Las Vegas. She seems sweet. I'm happy for them." Interesting. Good for her for staying positive, especially if her breakup with Jax was "complicated."
However, Tiffany did say that Jax came to Vegas to visit her several times when he was on his dating "break" from Carmen. So now it's doubly awkward, especially for Carmen, whether she already knew that about Tiffany and Jax or not.
But Tiffany said she and Jax are just close friends, nothing more. "Jax and I still care about each other a lot, but the timing just wasn't ever right. I want the best for him."
"Friends" or not, this is the kind of ex a new girlfriend doesn't really want in her man's life. But that's Carmen's issue now. Would you be fine with it, trusting that if your man wanted to be with his ex he'd already be there, or worried that he'd rekindle whatever was there the next time you weren't around?

Mommy Me Time
by Slacker and Steve
posted Feb 19 2014 8:59PM
Mothers get on average just 17 minutes of 'me time' all to themselves a day. Those moments are usually spent trying to catch up on a TV show reading, or taking a little extra time in bed. Women are so overworked that they're often frazzled and stressed and forget to take any time at all for themselves. Even though both men and women can be working it is still mostly up to women to get the household chores done. When women can find time to themselves they find their bedroom to be their sanctuary.
Slacker says that his wife, who is a stay-at-home mom, watches entire seasons of TV shows on Netflix. Slacker says someone is lying: the moms about what they do with their time, or the study about how much time they get. Lil D completely disagrees with this study. We recently had some time off and he spent that time home with daughter. He says that he has never had so much free time in his life and he would be a stay-at-home dad in an instant.
Do you agree with the study? How much 'me time' do you get a day?

Mommy Me Time
Every home is different. I was tempted to call in today but decided not to because a) I didn't have time and b) I didn't want to be yelled at for having a differing opinion. I am a single mom and have been since my children were 3 & 7. My eldest was diagnosed with a seizure and memory disorder so most things children do at her age, she needed assistance. She also didn't nap for a full two hours, nor did she sleep all night. If I were on your radio show, you would have told me by now that "I chose the life" and to "stop complaining." I chose to get married, not to be cheated on. I chose to divorce to protect my children. I did not chose to miscarry or to have a special needs child. Yes, many evenings, I had a free 30 minutes or more without caring for children, cleaning the house, or any of the many other things parents do. Usually, I was so tired, that I slept instead of reading, watching tv, etc. I was usually awoken in the middle of the night with my daughter having night terrors. As they got older, I drove them to school events, helped them with homework, was a shoulder to lean on when things didn't go well at school. Try being a single mom with a special needs child, working full time, and having no one else to lean on. Then tell me how much time you have to watch full seasons of some tv show.

Happy Mojo Monday, Pinkies! Today we're going to work on mojo by Owning Our Bodies. Today was a gorgeous sunny day at the beach where I live, so it was the first day of BATHING SUIT SEASON. AHHH!!!! I've lost 20 lbs this year by green juicing, eating lots of raw foods, growing my own organic garden, doing yoga, hiking regularly- but no matter what I do, I still have this little gut that pooches out. And after giving birth 3 1/2 years ago, I decided- today- that I was going to wear a bikini for the first time since I was pregnant. Funny, when I was pregnant, I had no problem wearing a bikini. I was so happy in my skin with my pregnant belly. It's as if I finally got permission not to stress out about my gut! But since then? Forget it. I've been cursing my belly and HATING it. And it's not like it's that big. If you saw it you'd kick me. My husband rolls his eyes when I complain. In fact, he says he can't notice the difference with the 20 lb weight loss. (Yeah, sure…) Says he loves me either way and I'm no more sexy skinnier. (I think, "Liar!" But he swears it's true.)
Which makes me wonder. Why are we women so hard on ourselves? Bet you have the same issue. Some nagging part of your body that you curse incessantly, bad mouth every time you go bathing suit or jeans shopping. But why? If our true beauty lies within us, why do we stress out so much about our thighs, our bellies, our hips, our wrinkles, our legs, our arms, our lips, our cheekbones? I mean- REALLY. Thank JABA (Jesus/Jehovah, Allah, Buddha, Athena, etc) that we actually have all those parts to complain about! Why do we do that?
I know my belly obsession probably stems back to my decades of ballet dancing. I had this ballet Nazi who would rap on my belly with her pointer whenever it pooched out. (And mind you, I was 5'5" and about 105 lbs- and I worked out about 4-6 hours/day, so there couldn't have been an ounce of fat on me. Yet, the belly did always puff out a bit). Even now, when I donned my pretty red bikini this am (it does help to have a bathing suit you love), I heard her voice saying, "Suck it in! And why can't you fix that?" Evil bitch. There's nothing wrong with my belly! Yet, here I am today, hiking up my cover up skirt so my gut doesn't show.
After thinking about it all morning, I realized that this kind of thinking does me absolutely no good. Why? Why torture myself? It's not going to change, and I love most of me. Why can't I just accept who I am and suck it up (no pun intended). So I have a little gut? So what? I'm kind, generous, talented, caring, honest, and otherwise quite pretty. So why the self-flagellation?
When I came home from the beach, I thought of Pink Posse Dr. Rachel Abrams' Body Blessing from The Multi-Orgasmic Woman. I teach this blessing to my patients all the time. And yet why don't I do it more often myself? So this afternoon, I closed the door, took my bikini off, climbed into a warm bath, and spent a few minutes doing this meditation. I want to share it with you. I'm vowing to do it every night this month, until I start to love my body more. Want to join me for Mojo Monday? I swear it's good for the mojo- and for Owning Your Body.
Here goes, the BODY BLESSING (slightly modified in my own words, but with great big respect to Rachel Abrams, who wrote it).
Body Blessing
1. Sit or lie in a comfortable position.
2. Take three deep breaths into your abdomen and let your body relax.
3. Imagine an image of love (your smiling face, your partner, your child, the sun) in front of you. Take in the loving, warm energy through your third eye (between your two eyes) and direct it, in turn, to each part of your body. Begin with your head and continue down your body to every little part- your hair, your eyes, your nose, your ears, your lips, your cheekbones, your neck, your shoulders, your breasts, your arms, your hands, your belly, your waist, your butt, your back, your genitals, your hips, your thighs, your legs, your ankles, your feet, your toes.
4. Observe any judgments you notice about each body part as you send loving energy. Your judgments often present themselves as blocks when you try to send loving, smiling energy. For example, smile to your arms and notice any judgments that you may have come to your consciousness- "weak, flabby, skin is dry and scaly, ugly elbows, too hairy." Or in my case, "poochy belly- demonstrates a weakness in me that I can't control my gut and it insists on sticking out."
5. Send smiling energy to the body part and shift your intention to see all of the strengths that she possesses, using words silently or aloud to enumerate her positive qualities- "my arms are capable of expressing love, carrying my children, writing, and praying, and they are a beautiful dark brown." Or in my case, "my belly carried my incredible daughter and helped me bring life into the world. My belly gives Matt and Siena a place to rest their heads when we're snuggling. Thank you belly."
6. Imagine the energy of your judgments being released and sent out of your body through your hands and feet. It is helpful to imagine your judgments have a particular color or texture. As you breathe in, send smiling, warm energy to your body part. As you breathe out, imagine the smiling energy filling that part and the judgmental energy flowing out and down your arms or legs and out of your body into the ground.
7. Continue to each body part that you wish to address, becoming aware of your judgments and sending loving energy and affirmations to replace the judgments. The more specific you can be about your judgments and, in particular, your affirmations, the more "clearing" will take place.
8. When you are finished, shake your hands and feet to release any of the trapped negative emotions you may still hold.
Do this daily for the next month, then reassess and see how you feel.

How was that, Pinkies? I feel better already. And I'm feeling really grateful that my belly is healthy and that is has served one of life's biggest purposes. What about you? How's the mojo? Share your experience please!
With a belly full of love,
[...] acceptance that I am who I am, and this body is what carries me from A to B? Maybe it's the Body Blessings I've been doing. Maybe it's related to turning forty and realizing that I have to surrender to [...]
Oh, yes. A Pink God among us. Thanks Billy! Yes, I am blessed. I know my husband is the key. He is a total rock star and he truly doesn't care what I look like. I know that-deep down- really. If only more men could see past the exterior and love women for what I see- the woman INSIDE.
I think your husband is the key. If more men understood what makes a woman really attractive there would be far fewer anxious women. FYI, I've been married 30+ years; my wife isn't quite as svelte as she used to be, but who cares, neither am I.
Thanks for the hot bod comment, Leslee. If only we could see ourselves as other see us, right? But yes, it shouldn't matter how others see us. We need to love ourselves from the inside out. That way, as we age, we attach less what what our bodies look like on the outside and associate more of our sense of self with who we are inside...
You totally have a hot bod Lissa! But I can relate to you on the belly thing. Even before I ever was pregnant I looked about 4 mos along. One of my sorority sisters used to call me Buddha. And I was asked on New Year's day (3 weeks after my youngest daughter's 3rd birthday) if I was expecting. But these days I try not to focus on it and one way I do that is looking straight at myself in the mirror and realize from that view it doesn't look big at all and you can even see the ab muscles I've developed by working out. I also just bought my first bikini in years and I am going to wear it proudly this year, belly or not!
I agree, Megan. Part of my mission is to make you realize that you're not alone. As an OB/GYN, I've interacted with thousands of women, and we so often feel like we're the only one struggling. Yet, I see that our stories, while unique, share many common threads. Thanks for noticing. You are SO not alone!
My favorite thing about your posts, aside from them being incredibly inspiring and vulnerable is that they are so easy to relate to! I think it is important as women, that we are able to connect with other women around us. It gives us a sense of sanity. Thank you!
Beautiful beach...beautiful picture...beautiful you...
Ah, thanks. I bought the red bikini when I was pregnant. Wasn't feeling particularly sexy at the time and figured a hot red bikini would help- and it did! But I haven't worn it since. It was time to break it out- and OWN it!
What a wonderful post! I'll definitely be back here soon!
I love your red bikini too!

According to the 2012 Census of Agriculture, 30% of operators are women on the national level. In Ohio, 28% of operators are female: 31,413 women of 113,624 total operators. Ohio's largest concentration of female farm operators is in its 10 eastern counties, which boast more than 500 women farm operators per county.
The goal of the Ohio Women in Agriculture Learning Network (OWIALN) is to help women in agriculture improve their quality of life by providing them with resources to make better business decisions, while maintaining a balance with family and personal obligations.
This national initiative is developing a new portal for education, technical assistance and support of women farmers, ranchers and producers. The OWIALN shares the same goals and collaborates on programs with the eXtension Women in Agriculture Community of Practice at extension.org/womeninag.

A Panama City man is facing two counts of attempted murder following a double stabbing Friday morning.
The Bay County Sheriff's Office arrested 25-year-old Justin Lee Meeks Friday.
Deputies say Meeks stabbed two men outside the Key West Bar and Grill on Thomas Drive about 2:30 Friday morning.
Meeks was reportedly fighting with a man in the parking lot when the two victims came out of the bar. After they broke up the fight, Meeks got a knife from his car and stabbed one man in the neck, the other in the abdomen.
Both victims were taken to a local hospital.
Meek's girlfriend, 26-year-old Dana Jeanine Copas of Panama City Beach, is charged with aggravated battery for striking a third man in the head with a beer bottle.

Make sure your home inspector is properly licensed
As of this month, Florida requires home inspectors to be licensed. The new regulations also require inspectors to complete ongoing education courses and to undergo background checks, measures intended to better protect consumers.
In response to my recent Your Money column that suggested readers contact a home inspector to ensure their homes are properly fortified for hurricane protection, Joey Caballero, a former president of the Florida Association of Building Inspectors contacted me and requested I pass on this helpful information.
The new regulation requires that home inspectors receive 120 hours of education, carry proper insured and are tested regularly, said Caballero, who co-owns 5th Avenue Building Inspections of Boynton Beach.
"The home inspection profession has worked on licensing for over 15 years. I have been involved for the last 12 years and feel strongly that this will help consumers," Caballero said. "Prior to licensing anyone could [claim to be] a home inspector."
Click here to view the Florida home inspection services bill. Visit the Department of Business and Professional Regulation to check on a license.
For ongoing coverage related to homes and homeowners, check out the Sun Sentinel House Keys blog. And here are two recent articles from my colleague Julie Patel which discuss how some tile roofs are not getting insurance discounts and how some insurers are revoking discounts for hurricane-proofing.

5:30am drive from Johnston to Downtown
Driveway was barried in by the snow plow. Two stage struggled with 3-4 feet of snow.
Side roads were all ice and large drifts in certain areas
80/35 westbound was fine for 2/3 lanes-50mph
235 eastbound from the mixmaster to downtown-2/3 lanes ok-40 to 50mph.
Didn't see any vehicles in the ditch.
I'm still looking at my 4 foot drift on my drive and trying to decide if I want to go to work or just take vacation time.
I-218 is closed from IC to Missouri.
Looks like work isn't going to happen today....
Plows haven't even hit the side streets in Urbandale. Just got done snowblowing the driveway, wasn't too bad. The two-stage did fine and the snow drifts never got higher than the intake like they did last year.
My driveway was about 2' deep for the first 20 feet away from the garage, and it's about 1' the rest of the way to the street. Should have taken my wife up on the snow blower idea!
Anyone been on Hwy 30 west of Ames? Trying to decide if driving to Carroll from Ames this morning will be possible..
I came from Ankeny to the east side of Des Moines, so it's only about 10 miles, but I-35 and the portion of I-235 that I drove on were almost perfect. There was obviously spots where it was slick, but the majority of it you could hardly tell we've had any weather.
Side roads and intersections were much worse.
CR is fine........I think KGAN missed their estimates of 15 inches of powder.
Side streets in Cedar Rapids hadnt been touched at 6am. Interstate was ok, I went about 45. The other main drags in town were ok except intersections had plowed drifts.
*Rest in peace corn dog chick and #Hoiball
I would also like to know about 30 west.
My residential street in WDM was horrible. The primary side roads were plowed but very icy/snowy.
There was not much traffic and it only took me a few minutes longer than normal.
I just got to work on the south side of Des Moines, I live on the north side of Ankeny and took Highway 69 all the way in and the roads are in great shape. Traffic on 35/80 & NE 14th Street seemed to be moving along just fine.

I drove from the far west side of Ames to Nevada on HWY 30 this morning at about 5:00 and it wasn't bad at all. Not sure about west of Ames but I would think it would be about the same.

Iowa State Football Photos from the past
Where I live is pretty much, "end of the world as we know it". I'm setting late Thursday-Friday as first attempt to rejoin civilization.
My driveway in Ankeny had all the snow blown off of it :) no scooping for me!
Ankeny to Story City was good. Went 65 the whole way, and Im a conservative winter weather driver.

If Mario had never come back, and people didn't bandwagon with him because Tim tells them to, I would still be on the pseudo-elite level that I was at before. In any case, I'm still a mod, which still gives me plenty of authority over you. You can really just stop trying to make it look like everyone on the forum dislikes me to cover up your own inadequacy and just leave.

Lion Face: Kobe Bean Bryant
It wasn't the best performance from Kobe, but in the end, he used the last 2 of his 27 points to add yet another game winner to his resume. COUNT TEH GAME WINNERZZZ KOBEZ DA CLUTCHEST DA MVPZZZZ. RINGZZZ
[flash http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SjBMznQDWJk]
Lemon Face: Rasual Butler
With 4.2 seconds to go in the game, Dwayne Casey called on Butler to be the trigger man for the out-of-bounds play with the Raptors trailing 93-92. Butler held the ball for too long before trying to call timeout and was issued a 5 second violation, turning the ball back over to the Lakers. And what kind of name is Rasual anyway?
Lion Face: Rajon Rondo
Rondo messed around and got a triple double, posting 32 points, 10 rebounds and 15 assists in the Celtics' win over the Bulls. He was by far the best player on the court. He controlled the entire flow of the game on both ends, got great shots for himself and his teammates and made 10 of his 13 free throws. His was just the tenth 30-10-15 game since the merger.
[flash http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DXZ-eNrAoQ]
Lemon Face: The Bulls' bench
The quartet of Kyle Korver, John Lucas III, Taj Gibson and Omer Asik combined to shoot 6-for-23 and scored just 16 points in 54 minutes combined. Without Derrick Rose, the Bulls needed to get production from their role players, and these guys simply didn't show up. Meanwhile, with Jermaine O'Neal sitting out, his backups Chris Wilcox and James Johnson combined for 23 points and 13 rebounds in 59 minutes played.
Lemon Face: The Pistons, all of them
They lost to the Wizards. By 21. At home. #FreeGregMonroe
Lion Face: JaVale McGee, Nick Young and John Wall
McGee put up 22 points on 13 shots and snagged 11 rebounds for his ninth double-double of the season. Young shot 8-for-13 and poured in 22 points. Wall was 1 point and 3 rebounds short of a triple-double and tallied 15 assists. He made several highlight reel plays and looked like he had some fun on a basketball court for the first time in a while. He had a few particularly nice dishes to McGee for high-flying dunks that we hadn't seen in some time. This trio led Washington to just their second road win of the season.
[flash http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meYIbAt2iaQ]
Lion Face: LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh
I don't have too much to say about this game because it was a truly terrible game to watch, but these guys had some nice round numbers to type up. LeBron had 23 points, 13 rebounds and 6 assists and was +26. Wade had 21 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists and was +24. Bosh, despite a poor shooting day, still made an impact as he had 14 points and 16 rebounds and was +22.
Lemon Face: Me
For not watching enough of the Warriors-Rockets fame to properly determine who should get Lion Faces and Lemon Faces.
Lion Face: Al Jefferson
He was dominant inside against a Memphis team that has some strong inside presence as he went 10-17 on his way to 21 points, 15 rebounds and 4 assists. He also blocked 2 shots.
Lemon Face: The Grizzlies
For wearing those stupid Oakland A's uniforms again. For letting Gordon Hayward drop 23 points. For turning it over 18 times. For not capitalizing on a rebounding and free throw shooting edge. For losing by double digits at home to a team that came in with a 2-7 record on the road.

True Blood
True Blood Review: Season 6, Episode 4 — Warlow Is Revealed!
Finally! On Season 6, Episode 4 ("At Last") of True Blood, Warlow's identity was revealed — and we weren't exactly surprised. Meanwhile, Eric takes his relationship with Truman's daughter, Willa. to the next level. (Yes, there's blood involved.)
So what went down in Bon Temps this week? Read on for Wetpaint Entertainment's review of the episode, and then rate it yourself!

Surprise, surprise. Hybrid hottie Ben is a vampire. But he's not just anything vampire. He's Warlow, the vamp that killed Sookie's parents and the one she's sworn to. (Did anyone actually think that a cute, normal guy would ever walk into Sookie's life without a catch?) And in typical True Blood fashion, the big reveal happened midway through Ben and Sookie's sexy time, thanks to Sookie's silver-tainted feast. After Ben saved Jason from his nasty fall on Season 6, Episode 3, Sookie used her best investigative skills to figure out that Ben was the vampire who's been tormenting her.
So during a heavy make-out session, Sookie prepares a ball of faerie light and threatens, "Get the f*** off me or die, Warlow." Damn. We're loving Sookie 2.0.
Unfortunately, it looks like Sookie can now add Grandpa Niall to the list of family members assaulted by Warlow. After draining the fae king of his blood, he sends him to another dimension and glamours Jason to forget it all. Here's hoping we get to see grandpa in the near future.
Meanwhile, the other jaw-dropping moment of "At Last" happened when Eric turned Willa into a vampire (it's not like she wasn't asking him to do it — she was practically begging to taste his blood). Now that Governor Burrell's daughter is now a vamp, Eric hoped Truman would be convinced that vampires are human, too. Unfortunately, that doesn't work out as planned, as Willa is unable to resist the smell of her father's blood from his injured hand and attacks him. Sarah Newlin, who just so happens to be hooking up the the elderly Governor, was on hand to shoot her and insist he send her to the Camp.
But Willa isn't the only vampire on the way to the Camp. Nora, Ginger and Pam are headed to the experimentation camp as well. Given Eric's latest offense (and Pam and Willa's incarceration), we wouldn't be surprised if he ended up there by the end of Season 6.
What did you think of "At Last," Truebies? Sound off in the comments below!
Catch the next episode of True Blood on Sunday, July 14 at 9 p.m. EST on HBO.
