One  percent  of  the  nation's  50

Yoga,  a  Hindu  system 

of  stretching 

exercises  for  well-

popularity,  mostly 
because  the  older

Aerobic  boxing,  with  boxing-style  leg  and  arm  work,  turns

work  off  their  aggression  by  throwing  a  right  and  a  lew  jabs. 


The  hottest

Power  Rangers,  so  hot 
Cabbage  Patch  dolls  pale  in

Since  their  giant  frozen  wave  is  a  ski  hill,  snowboarders  annoy

Remaining  a  virgin  in  the  face  of  peer  pressure  finds  new 
respect  among  teens  who  defend  their  freedom  to  forgo 
sex  in  a  sex-crazy  world.  The  movement  is  both  a 
demand  for  real  love  and  a  reaction  against  unwanted 
pregnancy  and  health  risks,  since  today  one  out  of  four  kids  are 
infected  with  sexually  transmitted  diseases  by  the  age  of  21 . 


It's  called  "the  year

Kool-Aid  makes  a 
cheap  hair-dye,  an 
alternative  to 
bleached  hair  with,  say, 
Prizm  Blue  added  for  sheen. 
The  "city  fade"  shaves  the 
sides  of  your  head  and 
leaves  the  top  longer,  and 
the  matted  hair  look  is 
achieved  by  leaving  the  soap 
in  and  forgetting  to  comb. 


The  designer  pets  of  the  year  are  African  pigmy 
hedgehogs,  and  some  3,000  find  homes  with  humans. 
They  are  gentle,  like  to  be  petted,  and  need  a  once-a- 
day  feeding  of  pet  food  or  mealworms.  They  don't  smell  and 
will  even  eat  your  roaches.
