I was due for a check-up in July, and for the last eight months, I’ve been moving the reminder card around my office and coming up with new excuses about why I couldn’t make an appointment. I made the Thursday, went in, and the whole process took thirty-eight minutes from the time I picked up a magazine in the waiting room to the time I walked out the door holding my bag with freebie toothbrush and floss. I walked the twenty-five blocks to get there, too, on this beautiful spring afternoon, so even half of my travel time was well-spent. From this experience, I draw two lessons for myself — both of which were quite apparent to me, although I neglected to act on them… 1. Procrastination is itself draining. That reminder c...

You can read all the rules for yourself, but the success of an open relationship seems to depend upon honesty, communication, and trust. Possible? We’re skeptical.

My boyfriend David and I had been dating for a few years when, one night, we decided to spend the evening at home. We had a few drinks, watched some TV, then had this innocent conversation: “If you could have sex with anyone in the world, who would it be?” he asked me. “You,” I replied. “Other than me.” “Russell Crowe.” “Gross.” “You didn’t ask me who I wanted to have an interesting conversation with,” I protested. “You asked me who I would...

Grassley’s continuing investigation into researchers who failed to disclose millions of dollars in incomes from pharmaceutical companies), you’d think both pharmaceutical companies and experts who get paid by them would’ve learned a thing or two. Apparently the news hasn’t reached Australia yet. The Daily Telegraph reports today that seven out of 10 members of the committee setting the country’s treatment guidelines for attention deficit disorder (ADHD) have significant funding ties to the same companies who make the treatments recommended by the committee. How is this not the very definition of “conflict of interest?” The committee’...
