First, I’ll answer this week’s SBQ: What do you do with your charts once you’ve stitched them? Do you keep them or dispose of them? If you keep them, do you organize them in a way that is different from the way you keep your unstitched charts? I keep them. ALL of them. In fact, […]
Stress during pregnancy may lead to increased risk of fibromyalgia for baby girls
From a University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine Press Release about findings being presented at the International Congress of Neuroendocrinology June 19–22, 2006: Stressful or traumatic events experienced during pregnancy can have long-lasting effects on the fetus, yet these effects may not become apparent until many years later, according to a study suggesting that girls […]
The ManDiet
I have referred to The Man Diet several times as something I have done and recommend. After explaining it several times, I’ve decided to write it up here and just refer people to the article. I call it the Man Diet, but that’s really a misnomer. It should be an SO Diet or Relationship Diet […]

Is there a pentagram badge?
A historical article, written in 2001. In an introductory post to a newsgroup, I mentioned at one point that my partner and I have been active in starting a CUUPs (Covenant of Unitarian Universalist Pagans) chapter in our area, and also that I had just started training to be a Girl Scout leader.
