Izraelevitz: My Last Christmas Presents
My Last Christmas PresentsMy last summer in Montevideo, Uruguay,was spent in my grandparents’ home. My father was already in America making arrangements for our family to join him.

How the Hen House Turns: The Power of Imprinting
How the Hen House Turns: The Power of ImprintingI’m thinking of new beginnings as the new year begins. It’s been almost four years now, since Gwendolyn hen was a chick, raised in our human house during a nasty cold spring, thus imprinted with me as her mother hen.
She still climbs onto my lap whenever I perch on the bench beside the stock tank. She’ll accept a snuggle under my jacket and holds still for several minutes—a rare event in the life of most chickens—then she gets bored and hops off to peck around in the yard for the rest of the morning.

Skin Care Column: Microdermabrasion, How It Works
Skin Care Column: Microdermabrasion, How It WorksMicrodermabrasion, also known as microderm, is one of the easiest and most effective anti-aging treatments you can get.
