"Thieves cut off man's 'holy leg' " BBC news article.
"Police in southern India are hunting for two men who attacked a Hindu holy man, cut off his right leg and then made off with it.
The 80-year-old holy man, Yanadi Kondaiah, claimed to have healing powers in the leg."

Or are the elements of greed, violence, and religious faith all too easy to believe? (and horrific when they combine!)

*****

Crocuses are just two months away
Tulips and the Daffodils are not that far behind
In time, we’ll sow the seeds, we’ll feed the trees
Build trellises for vines entwined
And fill the starter trays inside
With herbs and greens and sweet young things
Like paradise,
Spring garden…nice…

ok, so i'm 5'6-5'7 and 100-104lbs. i used to be anorexic but am recovered. i also used to be 110lbs but for some reason my body won't gain anymore weight, i am eating normally, like i used to, but just not gaining. but i like being thin anyway, secretly i'd like to weigh 80. all my guy friends always go on about how thin i am, and they're always like 'size zero is disguisting' 'kate moss is too thin' and im thinner so what does that make me. they always say they like a bum and big **** 'something to hold onto', and i don't have those things. does that make me unnattractive to guys? (i'm 15 btw). people say i'm pretty and all that and girls want my body, its just boys seem to be like 'eurgh you need a cheeseburger'. so do all guys like only curvy figures??

I am watching the last chapters of Lost III. I am happy to know they killed 10 "others" in the last episode. So, I am trying to put pieces together: if the producers say that "the others" were about 30-40 before the plane crash, how many are left now? Both Goldwin ans Ethan got killed, Sawyer and Kate killed 2 on Michaels trap on the season 2 finale, one woman was shot by Sun, Mr. Eko killed a few when they tried to abduct him, Juliet killed one at the start of season 3, That makes 18 killed, so there are 12-22 left. Am I missing any?

My fiance spends way too much money on the holidays. We are fresh out of college and trying so hard to save (however that is kind of one sided, I want a mortgage one day). His family is on the other side of the country, while I have no problem with him going to see them, plane tickets are very expensive and they are not willing to fly out to see us even once (because they don't want to spend the money) if thats not bad enough.....

He buys SUPER expensive presents on top of that. I mentioned to him that since he's traveling he doesnt have to buy super expensive gifts and I'm sure people will understand. I am very frugal with gifts, but he snubs my gifts towards family member saying they aren't expensive enough. I tell him 1. they don't have to know the price. 2. I don't think they will. 3. We need to save up for ourselves!

I know its not my place to tell him what to do, but him just pouring out tons of money affects both of us, it delays us getting a home some day, please help.

I have a slow heartbeat, and when I am laying down or taking a bath, I can, at times, lose conciousness or just visually black out when standing.

I'm curious as to exactly what's happening, and if there is medication or specific foods I can eat to increase my blood pressure.

Thanks

I used to give my ex his and put clear nail polish on his nails, which he was fine with and didn't consider "too pretty," but he thought it's too "pretty" to walk into a nail saloon to get them done (never understood the difference). When I see guys with nice hands and feet with clear nail polish, I always think they are well taken care of. However, I have heard guys saying manicures and pedicures for guys are totally "gay."

What are your thoughts?
