Dear Margo: I am 19 years old and in desperate need of advice. I work a full-time job and am trying to go back to school in the fall. I am currently living with my parents, and they are threatening to kick me out. We argue all the time. My parents have been alcoholics my whole life, and now that I am older, it seems it's getting worse. I'm seriously afraid my mom is going to take all my stuff and throw it out of the house and I will end up living in my car.

Nutrition: Making Smart Choices http://www.womanpokerplayer.com/wellness/healthandwellness/556-nutrition-making-smart-choices.html http://www.womanpokerplayer.com/wellness/healthandwellness/556-nutrition-making-smart-choices.html Making Smart Choices Want to make some better choices at the grocery store? Cooking Light has a new book, "What to Eat: A Real-World Guide to Making Smart Choices," that gives healthy eating guidelines for the store. Here is a sampling:

— Base meals on items from the grocery store perimeter. The perimeter is where you find most healthy foods: fresh fruits and vegetables, fish, meats, poultry and dairy products. Then shop the aisles containing 100 percent whole grain breads and pastas and whole grains such as oatmeal, barley and quinoa.

Can Women Intimidate Each Other On The Felt? http://www.womanpokerplayer.com/poker-strategy/pokerskillsgeneral/553-can-women-intimidate-each-other-on-the-felt.html http://www.womanpokerplayer.com/poker-strategy/pokerskillsgeneral/553-can-women-intimidate-each-other-on-the-felt.html

I find the subject often rises about men intimidating women in poker; especially beginners. Due to this intimidation and wanting more women to take to the felt in a friendly atmosphere, we have a lot of tournaments for women exclusively in mind. Some suggest that by offering these tournaments or women’s only events the fairer sex will feel more comfortable to play.

If I'm Right, How Can You Be Right Too? http://www.womanpokerplayer.com/poker-strategy/pokerskillsgeneral/550-if-im-right-how-can-you-be-right-too.html http://www.womanpokerplayer.com/poker-strategy/pokerskillsgeneral/550-if-im-right-how-can-you-be-right-too.html Poker is a zero sum game.  If there wasn’t any rake, the money won by players at the table would always equal the money other players lost.  No mystery there.  Because of that, poker seems like a place where you wouldn’t expect to find many win-win situations.
