Emotional Wellness Is the Key to Stress-free Living
June 2, 2008 (Dallas, TX) – Jackie awakes each morning anxious about what lay ahead of her - work. Each evening she goes home agonizing over of all the unfinished tasks she left for the next day. Jackie feels like she’s was loosing ground.
Jackie’s email in-box, voicemail, and cell phone instant messages were taking over her life. Overflowing into the next day and the next. People at home, work and church were all to eager to demand her undivided attention and assistance.
Jackie is physically, mentally and emotionally tired. Over 146 million American’s work and are probably in Jackie’s same situation. Overbooked, over stressed, under nurished and under producing - at work and at home.
In 2007 alone, 237.2 million prescriptions were written for antidepressants. Jackie may not need to be prescribed antidepressants, but she certainly can consider reevaluating her conditions and i | Jokae's Bookstore 3223 W. Camp Wisdom Rd

Choose from the signature “New York Style” cheesecake (plain, Oreo Cookie or Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup), Grimaldi’s famous Cannoli or a tasty Tiramisu.
In the world of pizza, Grimaldi’s is an institution. It has garnered more awards than any other pizzeria in the country with the celebrity sightings of a 5-star restaurant. Using only the freshest ingredients, “secret recipe” pizza sauce, homemade mozzarella cheese and dough, Grimaldi’s serves traditional pizza (as it began in Naples, Italy) as well as calzones, salads and desserts in an upscale, yet casual, family oriented pizzeria.
With Frank Sinatra in the background, Grimaldi’s brings to West Village over 100-years of pizza making traditions and the tantalizing aroma of pizza and calzones baked to perfection in the signature coal burning oven.

The Spell of Sleeping Beauty In the kingdom of Never Nod there's celebration. A princess has been born to the King and Queen. Her name is Briar-Rose. Unfortunately, that nasty witch, Evilina, who lives in Tumbledown Castle with a giant spider for a companion, is not invited. She shows up anyway and pronounces her revenge. At age 16, the princess will cut her finger on a spinning wheel and fall into a deep sleep from which she'll never awake. Some good witches counter the curse by saying the princess can be awakened by the kiss of true love. The King bans all spinning wheels. Evilina is not so easily defeated and, on that fateful birthday, the princess does, indeed, cut her finger on a spinning wheel. It's up to Prince Alexander to come to Briar-Rose's rescue--and the court's too. They're all asleep! The prince must fight a Wall of Thorns, a False Princess and, most frightening of all--the awesome Dark Knight!

Hike for Discovery Kick Off - White Rock Lake How do you go from strolling the hills around White Rock Lake to hiking the highest peaks of Colorado’s Rocky Mountain National Park? One White Rock resident has found the answer: Hike for Discovery!
Hike For Discovery is a hiking and fundraising program for people who love to be in the great outdoors and want to help people battling cancer. The program is organized by The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, which many people around our neighborhood know for their Team in Training events.
Joe Dann is a Hike for Discovery participant and Team Captain for a training season that kicks off next week at White Rock Lake. “I walk three miles or more almost every day at White Rock and love it, but I was looking for a way to take it up a notch. That’s when I found Hike for Discovery”. Last January, Dann joined the group and has trained all spring for a hike event at Yosemite National Park. He is returning just in time for the new season kick off.

New Event This summer, McKinney-Custer area residents will likely take advantage of the more than 166 lakes, 11 amusement parks, 10 zoos and six water parks in Texas. But summer travel doesn’t always account for the furry members of the family.
The good news is that local area pet parents don’t have to be rich or famous to make sure their pets can take a bite (so to speak) out of the good life.
On June 21, the region’s first PetsHotel will officially open its doors at the PetSmart location at 8676 State High 121.
With more than 5,000 square feet at their disposal, canine and feline PetsHotel guests are treated to a high-quality day and overnight care service. Amenities range from poochy cots and hypoallergenic lambskin blankets to supervised play and park-like relief areas. | PetSmart 8676 State High 121

Scahill "Blackwater" Booksigning Many political commentators draw similarities between the Vietnam War and the current Iraq War. The Cold War ~ The War on Terror. The Soviet Union ~ al Qaeda. Ho Chi Minh ~ Saddam Hussein.
These are specters that the government props up as legitimate reasons to pre-emptively invade another country. However, there is one big difference between the illegitimate war of this generation, and the former illegal war: THE DRAFT.
How has the military avoided a draft? One way is by the privatization of the military. Companies like Blackwater are legalized paramilitary troops - killers for hire. And why join the army when you can make beaucoup bucks with private corporations - with more benefits and less oversight?
Jeremy Scahill investigates these and other issues in his book, "Blackwater: The Rise of the World's Most Powerful Mercenary Army." The Dallas Peace Center is hosting a talk and booksigning with the author later this month. | Half Price Books 5803 E. Northwest Hwy
