RTFA: http://www.boston.com/bostonglobe/ideas/graphics/0… DO YOU EVER want to change the way you see the world? Wouldn’t it be fun to hallucinate on your lunch break? Although we typically associate such phenomena with powerful drugs like LSD or mescaline, it’s easy to fling open t...

It’s long been known that doctors in training don’t get much sleep. They endure long hours in teaching hospitals and double shifts. Which is why I was happy to hear about a new report that urges rest breaks during 30-hour shifts. You heard that right: 30-hour shifts. The most recent recommendati...

I don't know. I think I'd put this in the category of "Did they really need to spend money on research to figure this out??" I suppose I shouldn't be a pain in the butt about it, but it feels obvious. Anyway, ignore me and read on: "A study published in the current issue of the Journal of Obstetric,...

When Tom & I moved into the apartment before this one, we found that the previous tenant had left a bunch of stuff behind in the kitchen cupboards. One of those things was a pasta roller. We decided it might be a cool thing to have, so we hung on to it and gave the rest of the stuff to Goodwill. Yes...

Well, I managed to keep up with the pushup challenge for two weeks this time, instead of one. Then after several days in a row of major sleep deprivation, I found myself too whooped to do even one good-form pushup. Blah. I was supposed to start Week 3 on Wednesday, but I haven't done any pushups sin...

Now this is crazy stuff: have you ever seen the popular reality show "Deadliest Catch" on the Discovery Channel? It is one of my favorites; I seem to just find it fascinating. It’s about Alaskan king crab fishermen up in the Bering Sea, and what they risk to get their grubstake. Seriousl...

Are you an insomniac? If so, then which kind? The one who flat-out can’t ever get to sleep? Or are you the type who fall asleep okay but then has a restless night of tossing and turning as you struggle to stay in dreamland? If you’re the latter, there’s hope—maybe. Tossing and Turning -- A G...

The Chicago trip was a whirlwind. Literally. There were tornado warnings all day on Friday, the the weather was absolutely wild. It was hot and humid, but the wind was blowing like mad. At times, it was difficult to walk down the street, because the wind was pushing back so hard. You could practical...
