Judy’s Intimate Apparel is known as “The Bra Place.” At locations in Olympia and Tacoma, Judy’s provides custom fittings for any cup size from AA to M, for mastectomies, maternity or any shape in between. But did you know they offer custom swimwear, too?

Judy’s boasts hundreds of swimsuits all year long. From tankinis to racing suits to tummy control, the folks at Judy’s have the art of finding the right suit down to a science.

“Every woman is different,” says Tambi Osier, employee at the Olympia store, “Something that a woman might consider a flaw might be something good.”

After discussing the women’s needs, employees can fine tune the swimsuit search to specific styles, fabrics and cup sizes, which include G and H sizes.

Swimmers can find fabrics that last longer in chlorinated pools and styles that reduce drag in the water. There are even suits for nursing mothers that allow for feedings while staying covered and comfortable.

Judy’s brands and styles are constantly rotating.

“We’re very picky,” says Osier.

But when a customer walks away with the right suit, Osier says, “They are very happy that we carry pretty suits that real women can wear.”

HANDMADE, HIGH-ENERGY AND HAPPY >>>

Want to see happy faces? Hightail it to the Olympia Ballroom tonight. Artisans and musicians will be communing with each other, sharing craft ideas and artistic visions, during an Artisan Market inside the downtown Olympia space. Shoppers won't find grandma's doilies or puffy paint sweatshirts, but exotic, high-quality goods, including Oly Girl Photography, a tea station and raw treats. Sponsored by Buy Local South Sound, it's a global humanitarian happening above the Urban Onion restaurant.

What excites the Weekly Volcano, are the two bands scheduled to perform during the market, which runs 7 p.m. to midnight. The Blackberry Bushes Stringband bluegrass instrumentation draws from the deep roots of American folk music with influences from Appalachian old-time, indie rock, jazz and pop. And traveling up from Northern California, the Dead Winter Carpenters will perform its rollicking, high-energy, Americana roots-infused music. Part of the show will also feature segments of the pop oracle and music divining method, Radio8ball by Andras Jones.

The Weekly Volcano caught up with Dead Winter Carpenters's guitarist Jesse Dunn on the road.

WEEKLY VOLCANO:Who's in the band?

JESSE DUNN: Jenni Charles on fiddle and vocals, Sean Duerr on acoustic and electric lead guitar and vocals, Ryan Davis on drums, Dave Lockhart on upright and electric bass as well as vocals and me on acoustic and electric guitar and vocals.

VOLCANO:Where did you all meet?

DUNN: We met through some mutual friends at a little music festival in the hills of Northern California in the summer of 2009.  We slowly cultivated our relationships and began playing as Dead Winter Carpenters in the spring of 2010 in North Lake Tahoe. 

VOLCANO: Please describe your music.

DUNN: We play a unique blend of rockin' Americana drawing from deep within the roots of American folk music.  We pride ourselves on original tunes that both make a listener reflect as well as dance their ass off.  

VOLCANO: What covers do you play?

DUNN: We play a range of covers from funk to classic rock, from traditional pickers to modern rockers. Some artists include Neil Young, Paul Simon, Gillian Welch, The Band, The Presidents of the United States of America and the Scissor Sisters.    

VOLCANO: After a show nothing tastes better than?

DUNN: Preferably something cold and hoppy to drink, and something warm to eat. Usually, this amounts to Pabst Blue Ribbon and leftovers from dinner, which is also very satisfying.

VOLCANO: Do you think your music saves lives?

DUNN: The ultimate goal is to write music that someone can relate to, and that makes him or her happy. We're doing our best to make that happen!

GRAB YOUR CANDY CIGS >>>

Season five of Mad Men hits the boob tube tonight. For Tacoma fans addicted to the show like it's characters crave nicotine, this is a welcome relief.

Tonight from 5 to 8 p.m., the Tempest Lounge is hosting a Mad Men mixer, and those who arrive clad in early '60s finery will have a chance to win a prize.

In addition, the bash will feature Mad Men-themed drinks, meaning brown liquor or clear, in a highball glass, from opening to close. Just, as Roger Sterling says, "don't be a sissy Mary" about it: "You don't know how to drink. Your whole generation, you drink for the wrong reasons. My generation, we drink because it's good, because it feels better than unbuttoning your collar, because we deserve it. We drink because it's what men do."

Yeah ... and women.

And women better dig out that Jackie Kennedy finery quick.

In terms of food, organizers Denise Tempest (Tempest Lounge owner) and Kris Blondin (co-owner of Stink Cheese & Meat) will fill your TV tray with deviled eggs, onion dip, pigs-in-a-blanket and other staples of the '60s.

The party is meant to be a pre-function. It ends at 8 p.m. giving partiers plenty of time to safely get home for the 9 p.m. start of the show.

WTF

HEART DAY, FEB. 14, 2012 >>>

1. Cattle-prodding the oyster ditch with the lap rocket. Cannonballing the fiddlecove with a park steeple. Pulling the station wagon into the old creaky garage. No matter what clever name you have for it, sexual reproduction typically requires the involvement of two individuals or gametes, one each from opposite type of sex - although asexual reproduction, an individual can reproduce without involvement with another individual of that species. Oh, it's so confusing. At 6:30 p.m., University of Puget Sound biology professor Peter Wimberger will step in front of the Tacoma Science Café crowd at The Swiss and discuss the reproductive behavior of sea creatures. No word if Wimberger will show his anemone or flatworm. What?

2. Yes, the Museum of Glass Store is open today from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Yes, the store has all jewelry marked 20 percent off. And yes, you should be panicky if this is an issue for you.

3. According to the press release, Jilly Eddy - appearing at Morso from 6-9 p.m. as part of the wine bar's slew of Valentine's-related specials - is the world's leading expert in lip reading. In fact, Eddy is billed as a Lipsology Expert, which sounds pretty darn official. But we're not talking about deciphering the f-bombs dropped by coaches on the sidelines during the Super Bowl here. Rather, we're talking about reading and interpreting - quite literally - what peoples' lips say about their personalities.

4. Maybe you like your songs of romance to be sacred in nature? Perhaps you prefer them secular? Either way, according to the press release, the Canonici Vocal Quartet will have you covered on Valentines when the group busts out a collection of Renaissance love songs in English, French and Italian as part of the Classical Tuesdays in Old Town performance series, which begins at 7 p.m. inside the Old Town Slavonian Hall. Completely free - meaning you'll have more to spend on ridiculously priced flowers or stale chocolates - the Canonici Vocal Quartet's presentation of Plaisir d' Amour: The Pleasure of Love seems likely to seal at least a few deals this Valentine's Day.

5. Comedian Kermit Apio headlines a Valentine's Day "Clean Comedy Show" at 8 p.m. inside the Tacoma Comedy Club. The show benefits the House Of Matthews.
