by Samantha Michaels So, here we go again. What does your list consist of this year? If being interviewed by Barbara Walters, we may all weep openly and say we want nothing more than achieving a radiant state of pure zen enlightenment and world peace.

by Paul Hollinger Kids may say the darndest things—but toddlers seem to have the market cornered on defiant expressions of opinion. Your once sweet—but inarticulate—baby turns into a fountain of “No!” Sometimes, it may sound as if your two-year-old doesn’t like you much anymore: “No.” “Go Away!” “Mine!” “Stop!” But toddlers aren’t looking to make you mad. They’re just not yet fully fluent—at 24 months they only have... 12/24/2015 8:00:00 AM

If you did, I doubt you knew that throughout the 1930’s and 1940’s serious medical journals like “The New England... 12/19/2015 10:00:00 PM
