The Asian secret to strong, lush hair

With thicker hair, there is higher demand for products that provide fluid movement and manageability.

"She looked like she'd lost all the baby weight, and she was toned too. Even her tush was remarkable."
How has the best-selling author of Naturally Thin and Skinnygirl Dish bounced back so soon? "There's been no real drastic anything," Bethenny, who weighs a healthy 118 lbs, tells Life & Style. "I've really been eating, just not like a crazy person." The 5-foot-6 natural-food chef has a new mantra, "Taste everything, eat nothing."
　
Lately, she's been combining outdoor activities with routines from her yoga DVD, Body by Bethenny. "Sometimes it'll take me the whole day to get through it," the busy mom tells Life & Style. "I do what I can when I can a couple of times a week."

Star Wars - The Clone Wars (PG)

RY December 31, people across the world gather to pray that there will be world peace.
And that there will be no more Star Wars movies to bore non-believers witless.
Judging by the way this violent animation has appeared in the week that Russia has taken on Georgia, world peace is an inter-galactic pipe dream.
And so is the thought that the now 62-year-old George Lucas will ever stop milking his cash cows.
The man who dug up Indiana's Bones in May has executively produced this Star Wars' spin-off too.
It's very much Saturday morning stuff in appearance and, rather like The Simpsons, something of a TV movie in disguise (a small screen series is set to follow).
What saves The Clone Wars is that it's got a fair bit of pace - something that was sadly lacking in the three prequels - and the action sequences look in tune with the previous movies' models.

Nun's death rallies anti-immigration forces

In Arizona, the shooting death of a rancher blew the lid off simmering anger over border security and helped solidify support for a tough new immigration law. A similar eruption threatens in Virginia following the death of a Catholic nun in a car accident involving a man in the country illegally and accused of drunken driving.
The Benedictine Sisters of Virginia tried to discourage using the death of Sister Denise Mosier as a "forum of the illegal immigration agenda" and pleaded for a focus on "Christ's command to forgive."
"The sisters' mission is peace and love," said Corey Stewart, chairman of Prince William County's Board of Supervisors. "My mission is law enforcement and the protection of public safety."
Prince William County, about 25 miles southwest of Washington, D.C., stepped up its immigration enforcement in 2007 amid explosive growth of its Hispanic and immigrant populations. Under Stewart's leadership, the county implemented a local policy requiring police to determine the immigration status of all people arrested on suspicion of violating state or local laws.
