[Title] => Christmas is for the family
[Summary] =>
Yes, it’s true: Christmas is for kids and kids-at-heart which we all are, aren’t we?
It’s also for the family, a time for reunions and renewal of ties, of letting bygones be bygones and unloading your chest of emotional burden which, according to doctors, can cause serious (physical) illness.
Still the best piece of advice is for you and I to travel light through the otherwise torturous, long-winding highways and byways of the journey called Life.

[Title] => Aches & pains we should not ignore
[Summary] => 
At my age, when I wake up in the morning without any aches and pains, I think I’ve died and gone to heaven!" my father said. "So I pinch myself hard to make sure that I am still alive!"
We burst out laughing and he continued, "When I was in my 40s, I could play 18 holes of golf, and go to the gym afterward for more exercise. Now in my 80s, after a round of golf, I need to go to a physical therapist to soothe out all my aches and pains."

[Title] => Relief is just a swallow away
[Summary] => Many years ago, there was an Alka Seltzer commercial where their cartoon mascot Speedy would sing a tune at the end – "Relief is just…. a swallow away." For this country, debt relief may not be a swallow away but if we don’t reduce our huge debt we can be swallowed away. If we can just pull off Speaker Joe de Venecia’s debt-for-equity proposal even by just 20 percent, the debt reduction will greatly relieve the burden on the economy.

[Title] => Spring cleaning
[Summary] => Have you done a regular inspection of what your cupboards, cabinets and storage boxes contain? You should do this at regular intervals, more so if you are one of those who buy and keep lots of things, specially food stuff, "in reserve". Pay special attention to expiry dates and ‘best by’ stamps. It is likely that you have sauces, seasonings, biscuits, canned goods you could have bought on impulse or because they were new in the market. As their quantity accumulates, you certainly will not be able use them all.

[Title] => 2 Fast 2 Furious 2003: Live, learn and lingerie for 2004
[Summary] => It was the year of the Friendster (moving at caterpillar speed despite an epidemic of DSL-powered households). It was the year of the iPod and iTunes championing against piracy. It was the year of lesbian (pseudos more like it) pop singers/media corned beef tongue hockey (ex: tATu and Magde and Britney). It was the year of the cargo pants. It was the year of Zac Posen.
It was the year of Saddamnit. It was the year of Kris and Joey. It was the year of Politicians Gone Wild. It was the year of the mini (car and skirt).

[Title] => Some painful truths about painkillers
[Summary] => 
Some people pop it into their mouths as if it was the most natural thing to do. Fact is, some people live on it. Undoubtedly, it’s the world’s most popular drug. Of course, you’ve taken aspirin at least once in your life. It’s fast (relief is just a swallow away, to borrow the words of an old Alka Seltzer ad), safe and effective. But this most used drug is also the most abused, writes Dr. Dharma Singh Khalsa with Cameron Stauth in the book The Pain Cure (available at Goodwill Bookstore).

It was almost called "Cosmetic Warriors from the Temple of Temptation." Or "Keep It Fluffy." But instead it is called Lush, a word that evokes richness, volume, luxury and, yes, a drunken woman.
And what is Lush? Before you think, "Oh, no, another purveyor of bath gel!" read on. Lush was recently awarded the 2001 MAPIC Award for International Dynamism in Retail Real Estate in the beauty and health category, beating such industry giants as Sephora and Origins.
