    This Is Where Your Real Strength Comes From

    Remember when Popeye the Sailor Man would pop open a can of spinach, guzzle down the green goop and bam!, his biceps would bulge?

    4 Tips for Going on a Low-Tech ‘Media Diet’ During Christmas

    These days, I think the song “Jingle Bells” might start like this: “Dashing through the snow, with a high-def touchscreen display, o’er the fields we go, tweeting and texting all the way. Bells on smartphones ring, making bandwidth bright, what fun it is to stare and cling to a virtual world tonight …” Silver bells,

    Why Are Teens Really Hiding Their Sexual Reality From Their Parents?

    Sexual revelations about their children shake most parents to the core. Let’s face it—“our little Katie” getting naked with a boy or “our little Kevin” guzzling porn on his smart phone and chronically masturbating is an exercise that—again—most parents can’t mentally engage or never want to imagine.

    Are You Blind to Your Achilles’ Heel?

    A friend has been learning a lot about the Achilles tendon lately. At 47, locals nicknamed him “Old School” because he is still able to teach the young guns a few basketball lessons.
