Ruthless Beta Blockers v. Scandalous Ace Inhibitors


Nope, not an in-depth analysis of the actions and contraindications of cardiac pharmacotherapeutics... but an intense evening of girl-on-girl ROLLER DERBY!

A benefit to: Smash Tarts for Open Hearts, as the Sacred Heart Medical Center Surgical Team gears up to head to Rwanda to preform much needed open heart surgery.

And a fantastic and inspirational quality athletic event, to be sure.
Note: I have a new dream to encourage my rambunctious 4-year-old niece to join the ranks. I can see her now, trading in those new Barbie roller skates for a more hardcore pair.

"Bouts" occur at the old Pattison's Rink where I recall awkward sweaty Junior High hand-holding. Spokane's Lilac City Rollergirls created the Beta-Blockers and Ace-Inhibitors for the Benefit's benefit, but you can catch these official competitors at their regularly scheduled and promoted girl fights: The Toothless Annies, The Pretty Deadly's, and The She-Wolves.

FRUiTS


FRUiTS is a fun favorite. A free gawk at freestyle fashion.


And now you can check out some Spovegas (Spokyo?) street fashion of our own. The artist collective RiVerSpeAK, requested photographers to submit snapped representations of local identity. Two are mine. My descriptions for the submissions are as follows:
Twenty-something, aqua pashmina from Calcutta, mom's old sweater, floral long underwear, fallen leaves. Spotted: Spokane November 8, Regal & 77th.
Three-year-old, tutu, tights, pink cowgirl boots, apple, toy stroller. Spotted: Spokane November 6, Jackson & Washington.


This one is for you Stine, including the alliteration.
