Charla Sedacca

Charla Sedacca (born Charla Lineman, January 18, 1960 in Western Pennsylvania) was a female bodybuilder[1] from the United States in the late 1980s. Her older sister Janice Graser also competed in bodybuilding during the same period. The sisters made history in 1987 when both won their classes at the NPC Nationals, with Charla winning the lightweight class and Janice the heavyweight. Charla defeated Janice and middleweight class winner Renee Casella for the overall title. The victory earned Charla her pro card, but she only competed in one professional contest before retiring from competition. She is best remembered for her incredibly peaked biceps (nearly 15" at only 5'1½" and a contest weight of around 114 lbs.). She is now a pharmaceutical sales representative in Texas.

gollark: The broader issue is that when people say stuff like that they generally mean to sneak in a bunch of connotations which are dragged along with "organism" or "life".
gollark: You could *maybe* stretch that to extend to *all* humans, but *also* probably-not-organism things like stars, which also reproduce (ish), process things into usable energy (ish), sort of respond to stimuli for very broad definitions of stimuli, maintain a balance between radiation pressure and gravity, and grow (ish).
gollark: Individual humans are "organisms" by any sensible definition, inasmuch as they... reproduce, think, maintain homeostasis, grow, respond to stimuli, process inputs into usable energy and whatever.
gollark: I consider myself an atheist, since even though don't *know* there isn't a god, that doesn't mean I'm going to treat it as "well, maaaaaaybe" when the general policy for poorly evidenced claims is just to say "no".
gollark: Is not an organism, except by very stretched definitions which admit stars and such.
