We are 3 days into the Year of the Metal Rabbit! The rabbit’s peaceful nature combines with the noble, protective metal element to usher in a gentle phase governed by diplomacy. These Rabbits are very ambitious and can be quite crafty in their dealings with others. They throw themselves and their emotions into everything they do, making them intense lovers and immerse themselves into projects…both business and personal. This Chinese New Year will allow more time for family pursuits. Spending time with your nearest and dearest will take precedence over work and romantic love....

I don’t see how that’s possible, as I’ve been alone the last hour writing this piece (oh dear, am I making it up as I go along?). However, the half-hour before that, I averaged about fifteen per minute. “What are you eating, Mom?” (I’m shoving chocolate-dipped macaroons into my mouth at an ugly pace…) “Carrots! Want some?” Robert Feldman, a social psychologist at the University of Massachusetts found that liars tend to be more popular than honest people (think politics). Because social skills involve telling people what they want to hear (things that aren’t, um, true). The more social grace a person possesses, experiments say, the more willingness a...

Food, creams, and medications all can make your skin more sensitive to the sun. Check out this CBS clip on things that make sunburn worse. But don’t freak out when you see the margarita among the forbidden foods — it’s only bad if you rub it directly onto your skin.

Many of us have accepted that bottled water is rarely the best option, public transportation beats a gas-guzzling SUV, and recycling is just plain responsible. Of course, not everyone’s on board with practicing environmentally friendly manners, and you can find some of the most biting controversy when you eavesdrop on a brawl conversation between a vegetarian and a meat eater. That’s right — these two groups argue about more than just animal rights and health concerns. On one hand, some people believe a vegetarian diet is actually “greener” for the planet (and yes, this is where global warming makes its re-entrance). E Magazine offe...

It’s a term that refers to “the tendency to find meaningful patterns in meaningless noise,” as noted by Michael Shermer in the November Scientific American: Traditionally, scientists have treated patternicity as an error in cognition. A type I error, or a false positive, is believing something is real when it is not (finding a nonexistent pattern). A type II error, or a false negative, is not believing something is real when it is (not recognizing a real pattern—call it “apatternicity”). However, as Shermer notes, we don’t have a “Baloney Detection Network in the brain to distinguish between true and false patterns”—-patternicity does seem to be at work when it comes to theories of autism causation. There’s no doubt that s...

Here in the States it is fall and that means changing trees, cooler temperatures and the pumpkin patch. This is my favorite season. I love the darker evenings, open windows and orange and red tree tops. It is so pretty! With fall comes thoughts of jackets and the indoors. Not for me though. I am bizarre in that way, I tend to lose weight over the fall and winter months and be much more structured with my diet and exercise. Go figure… I want to share with you a slow cooker recipe that is very yummy, reminds me of the fall season and is diabetic friendly.

Put me in a kitchen, and I'd still be lost with both a compass and a road map. So, when it comes to cooking, keeping things as easy as possible seems to be the way to go -- especially when I'm trying to prepare a healthy dish. This is pretty much why I feel I have absolutely no right to pass along a recipe to you; with the only exception being this particular meal, which is as healthy and as easily prepared as they come. I'm not even going to bother with portions. Frankly, I don't even know what the portions are. But, I do know what the ingredients are; and they all combine to make a heart healthy, Omega-3 rich, pretty slamming tasting fish dish.

Moms everywhere now have research on their side.A large study of 500,000 American retirees has shown that increasing consumption of fruits or vegetables is enough to reduce the risk of head and neck cancer. Specifically, eating six servings of fruit and vegetables per day per 1,000 calories cut the risk of these cancers by 29 percent compared to eating one and a half servings. "It may not sound like news that vegetables protect from cancer, but there is actually some controversy in the literature," says Dr. Alan Kristal, associate head of the cancer prevention program at Fre...
