Load HEAT- Lana Parrilla

I forget who suggested this week’s hottie, but thanks!

(Aha! It was Huey that suggested her!)

Wow. Sexy Puerto Rican actress Lana Parrilla has had success in a number of small roles, and is currently at her peak as the Evil Queen on ABC’s Once Upon A Time.  Between her and Jennifer Morrison, I may have to give that show a shot.

Load HEAT- Lea Michele

You, gentle reader, do realize how much sacrifice I am willing to make for you, right?

I mean, serious research and hard work are out of the question, let alone writing anything of true substance. But I am willing to go to great lengths to ensure the quality of Load HEAT. How far? I actually watched the pilot episode of Glee just to see what Lea Michele looked like.

And what does she look like? Pretty cute, if you ask me.

Load HEAT- Sarah Rafferty

With a long history of guest star spots and bits in smaller films, Sarah Rafferty finally has a recurring role on the USA Networks drama Suits. And I love a hot redhead in a suit.

Load HEAT- Eva Mendes

Eva may not be an A-list actress, but she’s had a strong career, and she’s been kind enough to be photographed a lot.

Or, Lizzie Grant, as she was born.

I’m not a huge fan of her music, but I love her slightly retro look.

Load HEAT- Odette Annable

Well, somehow we forgot today was Monday. Which means we forgot to schedule this.  Better late than never.  I thought Odette Annable was pretty cute on the final season of House.

Second Coldest Start To Spring In US History

It wasn’t just my imagination.  Behold, from Steven Goddard’s Real Science post.

screenhunter_157-apr-26-06-02

Huh.  To show how significant this catastrophe is, all one has to do is “AlGorify” the data.  (Not to be confused with “algorithm”, which could lend some statistical validity to the process.)

Picture1

So, there’s where next year’s spring temperatures will be come the end of April.  Just a little above freezing.   2015?   Frozen solid.   Anthropomorphic?  I dunno.  And I am also confused by what to do about it.   When the coldest spring of 1975 happened, we were told that we needed to stifle industry and redistribute wealth to the Third World (and Environmentalists’ pockets) to keep the world from freezing.    THEN we were told that we needed to stifle industry and redistribute wealth to the Third World (and the pockets of those same Environmentalists) to keep the world from roasting to oblivion.

I can’t for the life of me understand why 0.00000000035%  of the data is not conclusive.    Even though it was unevenly collected with a wide variety of instruments and methods.   But hey, it is “settled science”, innit?   Like predicting Presidential election results by counting four tenths of a vote.

Load HEAT- Jennifer Paige

I was looking back at Top 40 lists a while back to find some more music for my playlist, and came across one hit wonder Jennifer Paige.  Her bluesy 1998 tune Crush was and still is quite pleasant. And who doesn’t like a cute blonde from Marietta, Georgia?

Like a lot of folks who only have one Top 40 song here, she’s had continued success in Europe, and appears to spend  most of her time in Germany.

Load HEAT- Kim Raver

First there was JAG (Catherine Bell), then it’s spin-off NCIS (Sasha Alexander, Cote de Pablo and of course, Pauley Perrette), and it’s spin-off NCIS Los Angeles (Daniela Ruah), and tomorrow, there’s a soft launch for a spinoff from that, featuring the Red Team, including this week’s entry, Kim Raver.

Kim has managed to score a gig as a regular cast member or recurring character on an impressive number of series. But she’s no Nick Searcy.

Load HEAT- Jewel Staite

I could have sworn Jewel Staite was one of the very first Load HEAT entries, but after checking the master list, it turns out, I just never got around to it.

**facepalm**

Yes, everybody loved her on Firefly. But I always remember her from the Canadian show DaVinci’s Inquest.

Load HEAT- Sherilyn Fenn

A friend of mine mentioned uber-cheesy 80s flick The Wraith the other day, so I watched it, and reveled in just how bad it was. So bad, I thoroughly enjoyed it. And I’d forgotten just how cute Sherilyn Fenn  was in it.

Load HEAT- Vanessa the Intern

We’re not quite the Civil War buff that Craig is, but we do find it, and museums about it, interesting.  Especially when they have a cute redhead intern to display the artifacts.

The Gettysburg Museum of History is a private museum, which you may have seen featured on American Pickers. If you “like” them on Facebook, you can peruse hundreds of pictures of some really interesting artifacts, both Civil War and from other periods. And most of them feature Vanessa.

This will also serve as a firearms recognition quiz.

Load HEAT- Sophia Bush

Yes, I did enjoy watching all nine seasons of One Tree Hill. Really. Mostly because of the luscious Sophia Bush. This isn’t her first appearance here on Load HEAT. Her most recent foray into television was the awful “Partners” on CBS. She still looked great, but it was a terrible show, with a terrible, tired premise and absolutely no chemistry. Which is a shame, because Sophia really does have some good comedic chops. Here’s hoping someone can cast her well in the near future.
