Since the day you set your eyes on tantalizing Kate Bosworth in Blue Crush, you’ve longed for her tousled blonde hair and killer body. Yet being pummeled by salty waves isn’t quite what you had in mind for a workout session.

Don’t bail on your aspirations! You can still steal that lean surfer-girl body without even setting foot in the water.

Yoga instructor, Peggy Hall, of Laguna Beach, California, shared her muscle-sculpting techniques with SELF magazine this month. The workout challenges your body the way surfing does, so you too can obtain that sexy, toned look.

For each super move, work in (up to) two sets of 12 to 15 reps on nonconsecutive days, and you’ll be bikini-ready in as little as two weeks!

Sex. Assault. Scandal. It all sounds so Danielle Steele.

Yet these things don’t just happen to fictitious characters in novels; they happen to real women daily.

The most important issue that came to light as a result of the Duke lacrosse scandal (whether the players are guilty or not) is that sexual victimization occurs on college campuses nationwide. Sadly, this reality is often kept under wraps by university administrations in order to preserve the reputations of the institutions. In this case, however, the victim’s indictments spread beyond campus grounds.

As a girl, how would you feel if this was happening at your school?

We asked Duke girls what they thought, and this is what they had to say:

“I will say that as nice as a person can seemingly appear to be in everyday interactions, alcohol can bring out other, darker sides of an individual, especially their aggressive side.”

- Nicole, ’07

“There have been Duke parties where I have felt harassed by friends and by strangers, but unwanted attention is not something, by any means, uncommon in the world of a 20-year-old female. I have not felt threatened sexually at Duke but I have at other universities that I have visited, at bars around the world. Harassment at parties is a reality that us young women have to deal with almost incessantly. A woman [must deal with harassment] at your average fraternity, bar, dance club, sports team party … of course not exclusively in these situations, but in these social options, wherever there is alcohol, there is unwanted attention.“

&#8217 A., ’08

“Within my first week of school, the older [lacrosse] players had a party for the incoming guys. They would walk around the freshman campus looking for only the good looking girls to come. They would actually walk up to a group of maybe eight girls and be like, ‘You, you and you should come.’ I wouldn’t consider that harassment, but it’s not exactly the biggest compliment to the other five girls.”

&#8217 Kat, ’09

What’s under there? It’s certainly not your typical underwear.

Commando Intimates are the latest in quirk-tastic underpinnings, helping you keep your nether regions covered no matter how high you are on the scantily-clad-o-meter.

For the lowest of the low-rise pant lovers, there is Commando’s invisible underwear — a collection of low-rise panties that are seamless, light weight and keep panty lines (and utter fashion embarrassment) at bay.

Speaking of fashion fouls … how about nipples that just won’t give up? To shield those headlights from daylight, try Commando’s “Low Beams” nipple-masking pasties, which cover those God-given accessories of yours, keeping them concealed under any and all kinds of fabric, for ultimate traffic-stopping action.

For gals that like a little extra “oomph” once and a while (and who doesn’t?), let Commando’s “Cup Cakes” enter stage left. These squishy silicone-filled pouches are inserted into your bra-cups for a lift that is, well, uplifting. After all, toilet paper stuffing is so passe, and you’ll get extra props for saving the trees!

All of the Commando Intimates products come in the cutest packages imaginable. Think intimate life savers in Chinese takeout containers and on keychains so obscure they’ll be sure to keep everyone guessing.

Is there underwear under there? It’s our little secret!

$10-$48. Available at www.commandointimates.com.

How far would you go for “perfection”?

A dangerous trend has started among women who already have near-perfect bodies. Dedicated to counting calories and regular sessions at the gym, these women are just not having any luck ridding their bodies of the miniscule fat deposits on their lower back, bra lines and knees. They want to be flawless.

The solution: liposuction. Sound extreme?

In some cases, the fat deposits are so small, even the plastic surgeons cannot see them. They ask the patient to wear her tightest jeans or undergarments the day of the surgery so the red imprints on the skin can serve as guidelines. Psychologists are concerned-will these women ever be truly satisfied? Or will they keep coming back, risking scars, pain&#8217even death, in the name of “perfection”?

With the price of this procedure in the thousands of dollars, lipo may not be an option for those of us on a tighter budget (no pun intended). Perhaps as the procedure becomes more common, beauty routines everywhere will have to be adjusted. Picture this as the norm: Diet, exercise and lipo.

Till then, the rest of us will just have to learn to live with our (tiny) imperfections.

I have been friends with this guy for over a year now, and we have a great relationship. I recently realized I may have feelings for him. Those feelings seem to have grown stronger since I found out he was into me. Other than the fact that I&#8217m a senior and he’s a freshman, he is not the kind of guy I feel I should be with. What should I do?

Sometimes the best relationships are the ones that start out as friendships, gradually molding into something substantial and meaningful. It’s true that age shouldn’t be an issue, but in your case, you may need to rethink taking your relationship to the next level. Both of you are on two different paths: One that leads you into the real world, the other that leads him into endless parties and random hook-ups. Age may just be a number, but the stages in our lives that we go through are the real stats we should be paying attention to.

I’m all about living in the now, but if feelings are at stake, sometimes it’s better to leave it alone. I don’t know your situation or possible future plans, but a relationship that has one person going to bed early for work the next day and the other getting wasted on a weeknight is far from balanced. On the other hand, you can always try it out and see what happens. But don’t get upset if things don’t work out and the friendship gets ruined in the meantime. I’m not being pessimistic — just realistic.

Spring Break is all about the party … and the excuse to hook up with several sexy guys in a week (hey, what happens in Acapulco stays in Acapulco).

But now that summer has kicked in, you’re lusting for that steamy passion without the hangover. Here’s how to turn up the summer heat with a Spring (Break-ish) fling:

1) Expectations. No one wants the lazy days of summer to end, especially if they mean you’re having regular orgasms. But try to recognize that flings are temporary. Though it feels good lying around in the sun, without protection, you might get burned.

2) Options. This may sound obvious with all the sizzling skin on the beach, but keep your eyes and options open. The more willing you are to date different types of guys, the less likely you are to fall for one.

3) Maintain a Safe Distance. It’s natural to want an emotional connection if you’re sleeping together, but don’t let it get too intense. Revealing intimate details about your past is a right reserved for your boyfriend, not your fling. So keep it safe and topics simple.

With the pheromones wafting from the Coppertone-glazed boys on the beach, it’s going to be impossible to resist an embrace from your golden Adonis.

But who wants to worry about getting sweaty when your honey is ready to heat things up? Here are some quick cool-down ideas that’ll still keep you hot, without the sticky stench.

1. Juicy popsicles aren’t just for day campers anymore. Now that you’re old enough, add a little something extra into the mix. Think margarita pops for a refreshing treat with a kick!

2. Wondering what to do with left over ice cubes? Take your cooler and your sun bunny to a hidden spot on the beach and help him brush up on his spelling. Put a cube in your mouth and make him guess the words you’re spelling out on his tummy. Reward his correct answers by wandering beyond the abdomen.

3. There’s no better way to rinse off after your spelling bee(jay) than by hitting the showers with your study buddy. Be sure to soap him off in all of those hard to reach areas. If you really want to keep it clean, leave those swim trunks on for a cool down that’s both safe and sexy.

If rock and roll is really here to stay, you should probably do something about that wardrobe.

If you ever wondered where some of your favorite rockers got their gear, then look no further: Smashing Grandpa’s line of designer tees, tanks, jersey dresses and hoodies is apropos for a party, hanging out or a night of stage diving.

Skulls, roses and hearts (Oh, my). For a girly femme-rock hybrid look, Smashing Grandpa comes through with a vengeance, offering duds with edgy silk-screened images. If you were wondering, the line’s name pays homage to Designer Leslie Gardner’s inspiration (the rockers of the 70s and 80s that by the 90s were all “Smashing Grandpas”), and these clothes have graced the bods of some of the world’s most celebrated crooners past and present.

Have you always wanted to be a rocker yourself? Smashing Grandpa Tees won’t ensure you a platinum record, but they’re certainly a start.

Check out Smashing Grandpa tees at www.girlshop.com. For store locations, visit www.smashinggrandpa.com. Prices range from $45 for T-shirts to $150 for dresses.

You’re the type of blonde that has a lot of fun … until one fateful day when you’re hit by a bombshell&#8217a Brassy Blonde bombshell!

Showering in hard water and other icky environmental conditions can wreak havoc on your platinum tresses, making them more “sun-in” yellow than beachy-sunkissed.

But before you kiss your street cred goodbye, why not say hello to LUSH. This so-hip-it-hurts natural beauty product line has found a way to combat that nasty yellow hue, with its DaddyO Purple Shampoo.

The secret of this magic concoction is in its veritable grocery list of fresh, natural ingredients&#8217all items that are found in the market such as lemon (to restore color), coconut oil (to strengthen follicles) and seaweed minerals (to condition hair). Isn’t LUSH thoughtful?! But the best part is the irresistible lavender scent that stays on your hair for hours and brings all the boys to your beach blanket.

Now if only you could do something about those roots …

LUSH DaddyO Purple Shampoo is available at www.lush.com and LUSH retail stores nationwide. Prices range from $7.20-$22.50.

A Bed of Roses: Candlelight, roses, nakedness … a pretty hot combo. So toss these scented rose petals on the floor, on your bed, on the kitchen table – wherever you want to get busy.

Rubbing your man down with sweet-smelling cream will not only relax his tired muscles, but also enhance the important one(s). Be sure to hit up the shower and lather each other up with the tantalizing massage gel. Slippery and steamy, oh my!

Silk Seductions: Two faux-silk ties and a blindfold. Kinky. Let out that inner-dominatrix: Tie his arms to the bed and watch him squirm as you touch his most sensitive spots. Later, blindfold each other to experience an intense game of hide and seek.

However you decide to play, there’s no doubt the quickie will become a distant memory.
