Continuity Test
Over the past few weeks -- while I've been busy on other projects -- my wife has been dropping hints that she'd like to see a little more progress on our house. One of her less subtle hints appeared in the mail the other day, in the form of a letter from the county building department telling me that my building permit will expire on July 30.

Chapter One: Childhood
We had a big backyard. Three quarters of an acre. The biggest of anyone we knew. Honeysuckle covered the back fence that guarded us from the alley way. There were tall trees and a stone statue. There was a metal pole and swing set. In the back corner was a secret hiding place where I would hide silver ware and different dishes from our kitchen. I made soups out of mud and leaves. I collected acorns and left them out in a bowl for the squirrels.

How the menstrual cycle changes women’s brains – for better
In the beginning, there was ‘hysteria’. From the medical magicians of ancient Egypt to the bearded philosophers of Classical Greece, men have pondered this condition for millennia. The tell-tale signs were extremely broad, including anxiety and erotic fantasies, but one thing was clear: it only happened to women.
