The heart is a pump, and like other pumps, it can become clogged, break down and need repair. And it does break down for many people -- heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. How much do you know about the dangers that threaten this organ, and what can you do to keep it healthy?

I can hear Madonna in my head singing "Open Your Heart" and in my mind's eye see her doing her yoga moves on stage. Why not celebrate V-Day with a little bit of yogic love? Physically stretching the muscles in your chest, shoulders, and belly allows for a deep emotional release, appreciation and honor of yourself and those you care about, and a feeling of lightness and contentment.

We had all had those holidays which stand out in our memories. It may be a fabulous memory which makes us all warm and fuzzy inside, to be compared to every future memory and be measured by it. We all have those holiday memories we'd like to forget---like the year both my Mom and my Aunt felt they had to be the one cooking the turkey and my Mom's turkey imploded. (Seriously...it became a heap of bones and the meat sort of disintegrated)
As children we had ideas about sugar plums just as much as we anticipated the tooth fairy...probably more. Later in life as we married and somehow combined families, and our family traditions changed. We created new memories together. We have had that gift we thought was going to rock someone's world which turned out to be as exciting as a flat tire.
There are those of us that prayed, pleaded, and made deals with God (or whoever else was listening) to just this one time....get that one thing or to be able to give that one great thing which would change our relationship with someone.
Of course there are also those times when we all thought "What the heck was this person thinking" when we opened a gift which astounded us. An example of this was someone close to me, her mother-in-law gave her a retractable clothesline one year, a sink hair strainer the next, and it just went even further down hill after that. (I am not kidding) And yes, we try to remember holiday seasons are about giving, not receiving....but still "What the heck!"

The following article was originally published by our Sugar friend, NurseBossyBoots. This was such an important contribution to the literature that I asked her if I could reprint it here:
Coronary Artery Disease in Women
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A lot of people think that women do not get heart disease. More women die from heart disease than from anything else.

Review: $10 Runkeeper Pro versus $315 Garmin Forerunner 405
Running is generally a cheap sport - good shoes and good music are generally all you need. However, like most other sports, the deeper you get into it the more you start eying professional gear. For runners, that means heart rate monitors and GPS devices.

In light of Glenn Beck's recent comments regarding social justice and the Church, there has been a lot of controversy, and speculation for that matter, regarding what a truly biblical view of social and economic justice should look like. Some, like Beck, would argue that God isn't the least bit interested in American or global political matters and politics, therefore, they should have no part of our religion. There are others, however, who believe that not only are Christians called to care for the poor, but that social and economic justice for the poor is fundamentally central to the heart of the Christian faith.

If humanity is divided between the party of “I wish but I can’t” and the party of “I could but I don’t want”, I propose Robert Pattinson as candidate of the second faction. 23 years old, vampire in spite of himself, unwillingly sexy icon, the boy with the case ( he has three of them, really, like the years that he spent among hotels ), he looks at the world from a porthole and thinks: “Boh?!”. But then he plays a DO, drinks a beer, crunches a Twix and goes on.
