We all know that exercise is one of the best ways to stay healthy. Flushing out your toxins from your lymph-nodes can only be achieved through exercise or lymph brushing… and as much fun as lymph brushing is (actually it feels really cool) surfing is admittedly way more fun. Don’t know how to ride… or want to check out boards specifically made for the ladies? Come on down to Oceanside for a free demo and and clinic.
Glue Network and Keep A Breast team up once again for the Imagine if.. Photography campaign.

“All of us at Susan G. Komen for the Cure, San Diego, are inspired by Amanda’s story,” said Laura Farmer, executive director of Susan G. Komen for the Cure, San Diego.
Being Diagnosed with Breast Cancer at age 27 was a challenge but being able to draw on my personal experience, I am now able to have a huge impact. My goal is to increase breast cancer awareness among young people and also encourage them to develop healthy habits that will benefit their long-term health and well-being. Working for Keep A Breast lets me interface with thousands of people and make a dramatic difference.

Bodkin wrote a great post on why buying organic is so important. Not only with things but fruits and veggies, but things you put on your body too. Bodkin is a women’s collection that functions as an ongoing exploration of the sustainability question—not only in materials and production methods, but also in aesthetic terms. Bodkin was named the inaugural recipient of the Ecco Domani Sustainable Design Award in 2009.
…. While we urbanites usually think about organic farming in terms of crops, it turns out animals themselves are also subjected to pesticides. Because it grows and regrows, wool is an inherently sustainable material—if the land is managed sensibly and cleanly. Unfortunately, in most parts of the world, it isn’t.
To control fleas and mites, sheep are sprayed with pesticides—14,000 pounds of them in the U.S. in 2000—and those chemicals affect humans and surrounding soil and water, too. According to the Organic Trade Association, “sheep dip,” as it’s called, is not only moderately toxic and a suspected endocrine disruptor (like parabens, the likely culprit for the recent rash of hermaphrodite fish and underdeveloped sex organs in baby boys), it has a long track record of causing nerve damage in workers exposed to it—with side effects including reduced bone formation, anxiety, and depression. Oh, and there’s probably some residue on your winter scarf.
On FRIDAY September 18th, from 6PM until 9PM, John Covington and After Hours Gallery will donate 25% of the proceeds of the Gallery’s sales, including sales of Covington’s limited edition art book of the BOUNDLESS exhibition, to Keep-A-Breast Foundation. The fundraiser is on the same night as Third Friday, and both Covington and the After Hours Gallery owners hope to draw another shoulder-to-shoulder crowd of admirers and buyers.
“I was blown away by the response to the work,” says Covington, who started out as a rock drummer, became a custom manufacturer of motorcycles, then transitioned into a career as a commercial photographer in the auto and motorcycle industry. “Women in particular identified with the powerful and liberating images of these nude models. That made me think that perhaps with my success, I could give something back to women who face difficult circumstances. When I learned of the “Keep A Breast” foundation, I felt this was a perfect fit.”
“This show is all about women finding themselves and breaking away from being mere accessories to the cars and motorcycles they usually model with,” adds Russ Haan, one of the owners of the After Hours Gallery. “It’s about their inner stories, their strength, their comfort with their own bodies”.
