As I understand it, this book is a cult classic, and I was very curious to read it. It’s about software project management, and even though that’s a subject about which I know nothing, I found the book very interesting — that is, the parts I could understand. My favorite section was a discussion of “The Joys of Craft,” in which Brooks answers the question, “Why is programming fun?” This question interests me because it’s such a good reminder of my Secret of Adulthood: Just because something is fun for someone else doesn’t mean it’s fun for me — and vice versa.

Feeling stressed? Out of control? It’s not you — it’s your drinking! At least, according to British Association of Anger Management. The organization (which is a thing that exists) posits that binge drinking is responsible for an increase in overall aggression among women. The number of women found guilty of murder, vicious assaults or attacks in the U.K. has increased 81 percent in the past 12 years, as has the number of women who admit to hitting the sauce a little too hard.

Whether it’s carefree relaxation or crisp Riesling you crave – or both – you’ll fall hard this autumn for Ontario’s spa getaways and wine trails.
