I was clicking in my RSS news, and saw a headline I couldn’t turn away from!

Scientists at the Mayo Clinic have been testing a new technique, called Molecular Breast Imaging, that uses a radioactive tracer, so far seen as safe to the body, that activates in tumor cells. The tracer chemical makes tumor cells that have otherwise been overlooked by traditional mammography much more visible.

What the article also describes, is that using this tracer chemical can prevent unnecessary biopsies and other invasive tests on questionable cells.

You know that we at LittleLizzyLou are supporters of research that saves lives, and are so excited when we see progress in areas that will affect so many we know and love.

Last night, we were riveted to our televisions to start the newest season of The Biggest Loser! We’ve watched each season, and aspired to get healthy and commit to healthy habits ourselves.

If your plans include breaking a sweat, why not make LittleLizzyLou a part of 2009!

Kate has been watching General Hospital for many years, practically since she was born. When her Mom and Sisters and she get together, GH is often a subject of discussion; most phone calls contain the phrase: “What day are you on?”

Lots of people make fun of soap operas, even though a lot of prime time shows follow a similar format. Like many TV shoes, a soap opera really means something to you when you find a character that you can really relate to. For example, Kate was born around the time of a character Robin Scorpio, so she and her Mom feel very connected to Robin and Anna.

I’ve tolerated the Soap watching for a few years, and at times have found myself wrapped up in the action. Over the last 2 years, a character has popped up on the show that connects to geeks and those of us who may have had slightly awkward teen years: Spinelli.

Spinelli is the computer geek of all computer geeks, using TV magic to hack into security systems and get information on many characters. He also speaks in cryptic fantasy & 1337 speech patterns that are great to entertain and attempt to decipher. Here is a link to his description on Wikipedia

As Kate and her family have been enjoying GH, Kate drew up an “I Speak Spinelli” design, complete with his beverage of choice: Orange Soda.
