in a moment but first:
A Richmond-area woman and her two children have been found dead in their
Colonial Heights home.
Twenty-seven year old Rhonda Bush was found dead in her bed late yesterday.
The body of two-year old Sonny was on the floor; 1-year old Billy was dead
in his crib. The boys apparently died of dehydration sometime after their
mother died.
Chesterield County authorities are treating the mother's death as a
homicide, for now.

Planned Parenthood contends the notification law is unconstitutional.
It took effect July first and says a judge MAY waive the notification

Of course the list includes many holiday favorites and Taylor says it's not
realistic to expect that we can stay away from all of them. The key, she says,
is moderation.

Another suggestion is to eat lower-fat items at other meals, to balance out
the time when you're eating heavier.
And don't forget to exercise.
