WHY MEN & WOMEN HEAR THINGS DIFFERENTLY
|
Researchers are unlocking differences in the ways men and
women hear-knowledge that could explain what's labeled
inattention or becomes misunderstanding in your household.
It's why men tune out and women miss the point. Reader's
Digest, 6/02

PROSTATE CANCER: THREE RESEARCH ADVANCES
|
Harvard Men's
Health Watch, 6/02 reports that prostate cancer is
like a jigsaw puzzle. The outlines may be clear, but many
pieces are still out of place. Then, it's nice to know that

epidemiology, etiology and treatment targets.

Girl to introduce "Teen" editions including Elle and Vogue.

WHAT MAKES A GIRL BEAUTIFUL?
|
It might be baking cupcakes for rescue workers, playing
football on an all-boys' team, bringing magic into a
friend's life, or daring to ski backwards down a black
diamond slope. Inside, meet 25 girls and find out what makes
them tick. New

Hate kills but local DA's fear charging killers. It appears
that it's the killers they are trying to protect, not
potential victims. Sounds like a bad case of homophobia to
me.

"The Best of 30 Years of Ms", this topic looks at divorce in
the age of equal parenting. Ms,
Spr/02

Mentoring is a critical activity that can help support
children and can make the difference between a child
succeeding or failing. Great article. Not addressed is the
importance of keeping the father involved after a divorce.
