This photo is taken from the beautifully pristine Moraine Lake in Banff, Alberta, Canada. Just a little glimpse of heaven in all her untouched glory.
And these photographers are supposedly professionals?!? I guess hormones just can't be helped, but sheesh.....give the girl a break, will ya? She ran fast and hard.....but I'm sure the "professionals" ran fast and hard to get to this A+ photo shoot. It probably sounded like a herd of elephants! Men will always be little boys at heart. Lol.
Is it just me, or is it REALLY difficult to post anything on VOX? It takes me forever to get a photo up and the story to go with it. THEN....to get it into a Blog and post it makes me want to turn to the "dark side" and do nasty things!! *evil eyes* I know that other people are having difficulties with the site, too. Does anyone know the percentages of VOXers that are NOT having problems as to the VOXers who are wanting to go crazy...like me?
I’m getting paranoid importing from YouTube because of the tags they introduce, and tags might be one of the reasons it takes me hours to get a compose screen on Vox. However, this one came up on demand, which is a relief.
I showed this to my neighbourhood yesterday, but as the YouTube one is public, I have no problems sharing it more widely. It was my TV appearance last month on CTV, with Angela and Megan on Good Living. This was not networked, but it was very fun to do. The set reminded me a bit of the Good Morning one at Avalon, except I got one thing that I was promised but never got: a subtitle with both my and Lucire’s names.
Since they're over booked and running behind. I love being a valued customer!

Athlete: Four piece out of London, England. You’re probably familiar with their 2005 single Wires, which saw them being becoming household names in the UK and even saw them make it to Australia. Unsurprisingly, this wasn’t their first release (Vehicles and Animals was their first full-length album) and hasn’t been their last.
Following the release of Tourist (the album that contained Wires) was the release of the 2007 album Beyond the Neighbourhood. I must admit, this release didn’t make a big impact in Australia and as it seems, didn’t make it into the collection of many, claimed to be considered “a disappointment” by some.
Much like Coldplay, Athlete has been critically acclaimed for their songwriting efforts picking up a Mercury Music Prize nomination and winning an Ivor Novello award for Wires. The band has additional similarities to Coldplay, in that their music it quite mellow and mature; appealing to a slightly older audience than your general indie-pop/rock. If you hate Coldplay though, never fear their music is not quite in that same realm of “ya mum probably likes it”. That is, I don’t think mums would dig Athlete. They still retain that slight edge which will appeal to the kids, but maybe not the ones that think dressing like they stepped out of the 80’s is cool.
To celebrate the upcoming February 2010 US release of the bands fourth full-length album Black Swan (the album was released in the UK in August), the band have recently released an EP entitled, The Getaway.
Black Swan, is not, as you may have thought, a tribute to the state emblem of Western Australia, but apparently, encompasses the events and emotions that the boys from Athlete have gone through. Based around the tale that saw the Black Swan being seen as a mythical animal for hundreds of years, until someone went to Western Australia (obviously) and the metaphor that life is made of up significant events, some of which can be shocking, both good and bad.
Don’t worry, it’s not all sadness and gloom. The first single from Black Swan, Superhuman Touch (which is also on the EP), is quite upbeat and lyrically uplifting. Whereas the EP title track, The Getaway, is less uplifting, but just as heartwarming and emotive lyrically.
To mark the EP's release, Athlete is offering a free download, which is a deal well worth jumping on. So, to get your grubby hands on this freebie you just need to pop along and join the mailing list at http://www.originalsignalrecordings.com/Athlete/us/

2002: Who's that guy next to Rachel?
2009: Rachel still looks the same, but Dr. House sure has changed!
Sheesh, wish I could stay looking so young as "Rachel" did. It's funny how many people, when you watch reruns from years back, have become stars themselves. I've been watching certain shows on the internet lately from Season 1 Episode 1 to the present episodes (House, Third Watch, NCIS, Bones, etc, etc). Did you know that Lil's first partner in Cold Case (and who said about three words throughout the season) is now the resident doctor on Grey's Anatomy who married the cancer patient who is also a resident? I should have made a list from all the shows where the stars of today were just mere character actors in the early seasons of other shows.

Stretching along the shore as far as the eye can see, it is a galaxy of starfish. More than 10,000 were left high and dry on the sands after choppy seas washed them from their feeding grounds. And unfortunately, nearly all perished, unable to get back to the safety of the water. The graveyard of orange and pink extends more than a quarter of a mile along the golden sands of Holkham Beach in Norfolk. 1 photo of 3.
Margaret Perrott, 63, was distraught after seeing the devastation on her morning walk. 'It's a long stretch of beach and there were just thousands of them littering the shore line for as far as you could see,' she said.
The starfish, which washed up early last week, may have been victims of dredgers scraping the seabeds for mussels, their favourite food. The process could have dislodged the feeding starfish and the currents carried them to the shore.

But Nigel Croasdale, of the Hunstanton Sea Life Sanctuary, believes Mother Nature is the most likely culprit. He said: 'Strandings tend to occur once a year or once every two years. They are also most common between November and March - the time of the year when we experience bigger tides.'
Mrs Perrott estimated that the carpet of orange and pink stretched for more than a quarter of mile. The grandmother-of-four said: 'The sight of all these little creatures dying on the beach was horrendous. We only went on a short walk and found a starfish graveyard.
'It's a long stretch of beach and there were just thousands of them littering the shore line for as far you could see.'
There was one bright spot in Miss Perrott's sad stroll along the beach: She saw one starfish still alive and returned it to the sea. 3rd photo of 3.
