January is Cervical Cancer Awareness Month
More than 12,000 woman in the United States are diagnosed with cervical cancer annually. (2012 statistics.) Cervical cancer is highly preventable through routine screening, early detection, and vaccination for the Human papilloma virus (HPV.) HPV is a sexually transmitted virus and one of the common causes of cervical cancer.
Screening and Early Detection Saves Lives!
A Pap test can help prevent cervical cancer through early detection. Over the last 30 years, deaths related to cervical cancer have gone down by more than 50% due to improved and increased use of screening tests and vaccinations against HPV.
HPV can cause other cancers besides cancer of the cervix, including cancer of the vagina, vulva, penis and anus. It can also cause cancer in the back of the throat, including the tongue and tonsils (

Marshall Rosenberg Quote of the Week from Greg Bover
“It’s never what people do that makes us angry; it’s what we tell ourselves about what they did.”
Marshall Rosenberg (1934 – 2015)
An Ohio native who grew up in what he described as “a rough neighborhood in Detroit,” Rosenberg attended Cooley High School and went on to the University of Wisconsin at Madison, receiving a PhD in Clinical Psychology in 1961. He was active in the civil rights movement and in educational reform where he observed passionate debate and even hatred from both sides of these contentious issues. As a response, he founded the Center for Nonviolent Communication in Albuquerque, New Mexico, as a training center for those engaged in peacemaking and conflict resolution. His training sessions and programs have been employed in 60 countries around the world and have served as a model in South Africa, Israel, Yugoslavia, and Afghanistan.

I’m not even sure where the railroad station in Magnolia was? Is this structure still around?
Check out the quality of the construction back then.

How much does it cost to take a yoga class on the North Shore? About $15.
So why is class $10 at
Cape Ann Power Yoga?
Over 15 years ago when Elizabeth started practicing yoga,
it cost
$10.
$10 made it affordable for her to drive into Cambridge to practice with Baron Baptiste. And practice a lot. Practice so much that when Baron told Elizabeth that he needed another teacher, and that it was going to be her – she couldn’t refuse.
All because of $10 yoga.
Brilliant Yoga Guy – Baron Baptiste
Fast forward a couple of years and Elizabeth is traveling to Mexico, and Hawaii, and Montana to train other people how to teach yoga. She helped to run events, retreats, and trainings all over the world to people who wanted to perform at the highest level.
All because of $10 yoga.
Fast forward a couple of more years and in…

Live Baby Back #Ribs Smoke Update At www.northeastbbq.com
Check out the live smoke and results at www.northeastbbq.com
Two hours in I wasn’t satisfied with the color, and the Weber Smokey Mountain had been cruising along at 225. I opened the fuel door and saw quite a bit of charcoal had been used up. Figuring we needed another two hours of heat and looking for a little more heat I fired up 2/3 a chimney of briquettes and added them to the charcoal basket. I also mixed up a container of a couple of tablespoons of Stubbs BBQ sauce, a couple of ounces of apple cider vinegar and a tablespoon of tabasco sauce and spritzed the ribs.

The snow has stopped, it’s just raw and cold out but the extra lit charcoal has helped the temps on the pit climb.

2:45PM Pull the ribs off the pit and foil them.

A drizzle of honey, a drizzle of Sweet Baby Rays and a light sprinkle of brown sugar. Ribs foiled meat side down and back on the smoker.

Holy Crap I Can’t Believe I Promised Everyone Smoked #Ribs In A Snowstorm Live Blog
Follow along for the live snowstorm Baby back ribs live smoke session at http://www.northeastbbq.com
All month long I’ve been looking forward to the first Patriots playoff game to smoke up some ribs for the crew. Babyback ribs were on sale so I picked up three racks and looked at the forecast yesterday which said the rain and snow was supposed to stop between noon and 2pm today.
Well fast forward to today and there’s no rain at all, instead it’s a full on sideways huge wind snowstorm.
Not to be deterred by the weather we forge ahead!
Babybacks were on sale at Stop and Shop yesterday but they didn’t have them in yet and would be frozen so I went to Market Basket, paid a little more from them but they were in the case unfrozen.

Took the ribs out of the cryovac and gave them a thorough rinse.


Next piercing the sinewy membrane on the bone side of the ribs and peeled off…
