Treasure
For seemingly forever, individuals have been interested in the fantasy of hiding their fortune. Stories of stowed away wealth and covered gold have ignited broad investigation endeavors everywhere, from the Middle East's deserts to the Caribbean Ocean. One way or another, where precisely is the gold? This trip takes us through outdated guides, puzzling signs, and the narratives of swashbucklers who meandered into the neglected world.

Letters to Queer Youth Challenge Winners
When I was growing up, I knew that I was different from those around me. I was a “tomboy” who secretly thought I looked so pretty in dresses. I never understood how girls around found guys hot, yet I wanted to be one. Sometimes I’d wear my dad’s button-down shirts, or pack. And sometimes I loved getting my hair done. I strived to find where I fit into, and yet my existence was always fluid. If only I knew that was okay, normal, valid.

Oops, I Did It Again with My Internalized Homophobia
“Let’s watch a DVD,” she says. “How about The Birdcage?” Oh shit. Ugh, drag queens. Female impersonators. Why do they always show this side of gay life? This is certainly not helping the cause.

Three Straight Friends Asked Why I Took So Long to Come Out of the Closet
Three sets of straight-guy eyes turn, boring into me, genuinely intrigued. Dudes were perplexed. Wait, what had I said to make them so focused and interested? It was like the classic record-scratch moment, as if the music and conversation in the lively bar went silent and the entire room had turned its attention to me.

The Law of Attraction. You have probably heard so much about this already. Maybe you have watched The Secret (Dare to Dream)? Maybe you’ve heard every celebrity and successful person you know of talking about the very same formula. (If not - start with Jim Carey and the story about him asking for a hike as a kid. Then look up Helen Hadsell. Then perhaps J-Lo, Oprah Winfrey, Jennifer Anniston… they all openly discuss this. Athletes, Olympic medalists and their trainers… the list is endless.
