Would you want to be caught dead in a tacky raggy, saggy looking bra? I think not. Not only should our undergarments look nice, it’s even more important to wear proper fitting lingerie. If you are large breasted, I highly suggest that you invest in a bra with underwire and strong straps. This type bra will perk those boobs up higher and push them forward where they belong and not halfway to your waist. |

A new bicycle remains a traditional favorite gift for kids for birthdays, Christmas, or other special events. But once the immediate excitement of receiving the bike is past, the responsibility of having a bicycle and the safety rules that apply should be taught to a child as a condition of riding it. Always wear a bike safety helmet. Make sure it fits snugly and does not obstruct vision. Make certain the bike is well-maintained and in good riding condition. Parents should regularly check a bike to ensure the tires are aired up appropriately, the seat is on solid and straight, handlebars are in the correct position, and the chain is in proper condition. Remember that kids often routinely lay down their bikes or tumble, and those actions can cause damage to the bicycle. Know your kid's route and time it takes to ride it, and require that they do not deviate from the established path or timeline. If your kid rides a bike to school or home, practice the route before the start of school and know where any crossing guards or help might be. If a younger child is riding a bike to a neighbors home and you are not monitoring the ride personally, require a phone call once the child arrives. Make sure the kid's bicycle is the proper size and, if adjustable, is at the right height for the rider right now. Parents sometimes make the mistake of "buying up" a bike in size with the premise their kid will grow into it soon enough. While the logic sounds reasonable, riding it will create bike safety concerns until the kid can properly sit and balance on the seat and touch the ground. Ride with your child! Parents can always use the extra exercise, and a bicycle ride creates an opportunity for parent-child involvement and good quality conversation time. |

Food writer Silvana Franco's advice will fill you with energy and that all-important feel-good factor - without loading up on unnecessary calories and fat.
