I just moved out to Orange County, and I was wondering if anyone knew of good neighborhoods that are all decked out in Christmas lights. I don't mind having to park somewhere and just walking around the streets. I actually prefer to walk around and admire the decorations.

Thanks!

I'm just wondering, how many girls here actually go out and hit jumps built in the backcountry? If you do, how big are you comfortable going? If not, do you hit park jumps? Do you not get the opportunity to hit backcountry jumps?

Eva Longoria, Teri Hatcher, Nicolette Sheridan, or one of the other two I can't even name...?

The fact is, I enjoy both equally, I have no preference. I'm told I have a great baritone/bass voice, especially for a high-schooler, but am also a proficient acoustic/jazz guitarist. I know whichever I choose to get serious about will get me some relative success, so I want input. Which would you, as the public, prefer to see a young adult break out into: Jazz guitar or theater?

As soon as she had finished convent school, a bright young girl named Lena shook the dust of Ireland off her shoes and made her way to New York where before long, she became a successful performer in show business. Eventually she returned to her home town for a visit and on a Saturday night went to confession in the church, which she had always attended as a child. In the confessional Father Sullivan recognized her and began asking her about her work. She explained that she was an acrobatic dancer, and he wanted to know what that meant. She said she would be happy to show him the kind of thing she did on stage. She stepped out of the confessional and within sight of Father Sullivan, she went into a series of cartwheels, leaping splits, handsprings and backflips. Kneeling near the confessional, waiting their turn, were two middle-aged ladies. They witnessed Lena's acrobatics with wide eyes, and one said to the other: "Will you just look at the penance Father Sullivan is givin' out this night, and me without me bloomers on!"

i have been eating healthy for like - ever!

meaning i DONT have junk foods and stick to fruit/vege/yogurt/wholemeal bread/wholemeal cereals/chicken breasts/fruit and nut bars and no butter etc etc....

but recently i have been eating around every 1 1/2 hour (something like an apple, or 200gms of yogurt etc)

and i have noticed i have gained weight on my legs.

i'm 15-16 girl , around 175cms high and weigh around 47kgs.

i know i need to put on a little weight, but its all going to my legs!!

so now i'm not sure what to do, ((please DONT suggest excersise because that is NOT an option for me at this point in time.. honest.. i wont go into details please))

anyway i think i'm eating around 800-900 calories a day and i do very little excersise, but having this really flabby weight on my inner thighs is very very discouraging to try and gain weight. (meaning you can still see my ribs)

i drink a lot of water and lately i have been REALLY obsessed with eating this muesli...

QUOTE Aristotle taught that virtue has to do with the proper function of a thing. An eye is only a good eye in so much as it can see, because the proper function of an eye is sight. Aristotle reasoned that man must have a function uncommon to anything else, and that this function must be an activity of the soul. Aristotle identified the best activity of the soul as eudaimonia: a happiness or joy that pervades the good life. Aristotle taught that to achieve the good life, one must live a balanced life and avoid excess. This balance, he taught, varies among different persons and situations, and exists as a golden mean between two vices - one an excess and one a deficiency. END QUOTE

What is the function that man must have that is uncommon?

I own an ice cream store and last week, I noticed some significant scratches on the glass of my display - like someone had keyed it. My employees saw it also.
I have a good surveillance system at my store so I started reviewing my hard drive. To my dismay, I found the people who did the damage. They are both 5 years old and they were with an adult, who happens to be one of my employees - and who was not watching what they were doing. Also. . .I work a full time job where I work with one of the young people who scratched my display.

I called a glass company to see what could be done and due to the size and depth of the scratches, my only option is to replace the glass at a cost of $1,500.

My dilemma is this: this is a smallish town, I have a casual acquaintance with the parents of one of the vandals and the adult that was with them is one of my employees. How should I reconcile this situation in a kind way without letting them have it? I want to be firm, but fair.

Recently I went to the doctor and was told I have high blood pressure. She took a lot of blood and did various tests, and when the results came back, she said I am basically fine except for my HBP and that my liver seems to be producing too many enzymes. More blood tests over time have shown the same results.

Are there medical illnesses that can have the overproduction of liver enzymes as an early indication? My doctors are focusing only on the HBP and I can't get them to discuss the liver issue with me because it is not my "primary medical issue".

They tell me that my liver produces too many enzymes in an "Oh, by the way..." manner and leave it at that. I wish to know of any potential issues that could arrise with this symptom.

On a further note. I have also been diagnosed with gall stones and am scheduled to have my gall bladder removed. Don't know if that makes a difference, but figured I'd throw that in, just in case it does.

We all know the theory of good health etc. But when it comes to practising it most of us fail. So knowing what is a good breakfast is one thing but what do most families have for breakfast ... what do they actually consume ?

For those of you who are saved Christians, who follow the Bible and Jesus, please help me out with this.
My sister started going to this church recently and wants me to go with her.
I was looking through their website, and some of the things they say worry me a little bit.
Is it just me, or does their statement of philosophy/membership criteria seem a bit sketchy?
Thanks

I'm currently 22 weeks pregnant & I'm 152 pounds already.
My pre-pregnancy weight was around 115-120. Is this too much or just right? Thanks!

I was told by a Serb in 1998 that we would have the same problem with the radical muslims as they did. He stated that the muslims were killing the Serbs because they would not convert to muslim. According to him they had no choice to kill them, however when Macedonia was faced with the same problem we (USA) turned our heads and let it happen. He pleaded to me that eventually we would have the radical muslim problem. Can any one clarify if any of this is true? I am a patriot.
