Surrounded by vegetarians and vegans, the arrival of the holidays always leaves me a little perplexed as to what's best to serve them during a festive meal. I don't want to slight them by giving them a bunch of side dishes, but I am not a fan of Tofurky and Now and Zen's Unturkey. My vegetarian and vegan guests will have the pleasure of eating a Celebration Roast this Thanksgiving. It's a meatless alternative to turkey that omnivores have been known to gobble up.
Geek Tip: Avoid Extra Holiday Pounds With Lose It For me, part of gearing up for the holiday season is the realization that I'm going to overindulge in holiday goodies from time to time. While this time of year isn't the best for trying to shed extra pounds, there's still benefit in watching what I'm eating — even if I allow myself a few "cheat" days here and there
I have been swimming for pleasure and exercise since I was a kid, but working with my Equinox swim coach Hannah, I am learning the devil is in the details. And those details extend all the way down to your fingertips. Swimming is really technical: along with breaking down my freestyle stroke, from my breathing to my head placement, I have been working on my hands. Here are a few tips Hannah has taught me that I wanted to share with you.
With your elbow high, you fingers enter the water like your hand is diving into a mail slot as you reach out and long.
Put pressure in your fingertips as you begin to catch the water as soon as you begin to pull.
Your fingers should be neither spread apart or clamped shut. Think of your fingers as being straight yet relaxed.
Who doesn’t love to play dress up? As long as it’s sexy, we’re in. But how many times can you stand to be a seductive policewoman before you place yourself under arrest for overdone costume ideas? Admit it, dress-up parties have gotten blasé, because everybody does the same old dreary themes.
So get your head in the game, and think of fun new twists on the old standards. Arbor Mist is hosting a contest and wants to hear all your saucy, wild ideas for themed parties!

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart arrived at LAX together last night while some of their New Moon costars hit the late-night circuit, with Taylor on Conan and Ashley on Letterman. Rihanna's new album is out, but she's not weighing in on the Taylor vs. Robert debate. Last night we said farewell to Jon and Kate Plus 8 with a dramatic new episode, and watch Paula Deen get hit in the head with a ham — luckily, she's OK. Watch PopSugar Rush now!
Considered the most travel saturated holiday in the US, many of us will be taking to the road or to the skies to see our family and friends this Thanksgiving. If you're flying try these stretches to keep yourself sane on the plane. And if you're driving I have a few moves to keep your body awake and make good use of your time stuck in traffic.
Steering wheel isometrics: Using simple isometric exercises, you can work your arms. Start with your hands at nine and three on the steering wheel (just like driver's ed class) and press inward with your arms. Hold for five counts, but keep the tension out of your neck. Repeat four times, and then move your hands to 10 and two and repeat. Changing positions of your hands will work different muscle groups.
Belly vacuums: This is a great way to work your abs at traffic lights or waiting out a traffic jam. On an exhale simply pull your abs toward your spine without letting your back round. Keep the abs engaged and focus on breathing into the back of your ribs for three to five breaths.
Glute winks: Your bum can get sore and numb from sitting for so long. This exercise not only works the glutes a bit, it also gets the circulation going once again and can relieve low back pain, too. Simply squeeze your right glute for three to five seconds, release it and switch sides. Repeat for a total of 10 times.

After years of midterms, finals, and all-nighters, a group of students at Lincoln University in Pennsylvania are being told they are too fat to graduate. The private college's core curriculum states that students must have a body mass index (BMI) that falls below 30 to graduate. If not, they must take steps to lose the weight by enrolling in a physical education class that meets three times a week for one semester — a requirement that has been part of the school's curriculum for the last three years.
While some students are upset over the school's judgment call on their weight and say it's discriminatory, school officials say that "no student should ever be able to leave Lincoln and not know the risks of obesity." Because Lincoln University is a private college, it is wholly within its rights to develop its curriculum in this manner.
