I don't understand all the negativity and believe me I understand some of the frustration. My Fiance and I decided to to a little shopping yesterday, ran a few errands.... I didn't realize how many people would be in Winco with their EBT cards, it was kind of sad. It was not just one race of people, there were all kinds of people there shopping with their EBT cards. I get that sometimes people need the help, but that many people? It was BANANAS!

In Our Own Backyard

Rick Ramirez — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 02:44:00 +0100

It's so sad to see these horrible crimes happening in Our Own Backyard. Just in the past couple of months we have seen a Sheriff Deputy shot, a woman went missing and was found dead in her own car's trunk, a mom found bound and gagged in her own house, shootings in Palmdale, stabbings in Lancaster, and numerous other terrible acts. We should all be looking out for each other and reporting suspicious acts ASAP.
Let's make this a Better A.V.

Professional help

Angel Mendoza — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 21:03:31 +0100

Why Get Professional Help? Washing your hair, trimming bangs, and choosing a new style may not seem like difficult actions, but incorrect hair care can lead to extensive damage, hair loss, and loss of confidence in a look gone wrong. While many people may think they know how to best care for their hair, there are many conditions and problems that are not obvious to someone who lacks professional training.

The landlord—who had to leave the country and travel to Nigeria—asks that you wire him two months’ worth of rent. You arrive at the home on the agreed-upon date, but there’s just one small problem—the house is not actually for rent and its owners know nothing Read More...
