The next time your partner, roommate or mother starts bitching about the bottles piling up in your recycle bin, here’s a whole new belt load of ammunition to defend your love of beer.You have the researchers at the Mediterranean Neurological Institute in Italy to thank for these recent findings. They devoted themselves to reviewing over […]
SEED, the Untold Story would be worth watching if only for the lush beauty of its visuals; the opening sequence is pure art, glowing and smoldering with fecund life. Jewel-like ovules and whirligigs pour into the viewer’s eyes in a hypnotizing swirl. But behind the colors lurks a dark cloud, and this story, like the germ […]
Dear C; I’m back in school. I know this is a great opportunity and a privilege, but it’s also stressful as hell. Last semester, I felt like I lost myself while I kept up my studies and grades. I let my exercises and yoga slide. Not only that, I seemed to get sick a lot; […]
“Well, I’ve been afraid of changing, ‘cause I built my life around you.” -Stevie Nicks There are many “first days” that come in September. Students are heading back to school, recent grads are (hopefully!) starting new jobs … and for many of you stay-at-home moms (and dads) this is the moment you have dreamed of […]

Dear C, I caught my partner masturbating in the middle of the night when I got up to use the bathroom. HE says he read online that it was good for his health and “keeps him young” if he does it daily. I am not sure how I feel about it. I certainly don’t want […]
Dear C; I work days, from about 8:30 in the morning until 6 at night. My boyfriend doesn’t have to get to his job until mid afternoon so he gets up late and then doesn’t get home until after 10pm. It’s really becoming a problem because we hardly ever see each other. We got a […]
I got my first lesson about the dangers of acetaminophen back in 1980, from a physician specializing in sports injuries. Like many other broke students in the 1980s, I did housework in exchange for a room in a private home. This one just happened to be owned by a doctor and his family. His attitude […]
