In honor of SWE Founders Day, read letters circa 1919 from deans and professors explaining that women cannot be admitted into engineering schools.

I have always thought that dancing is the best exercise!! Now we know that it is also good for us

Moving and socializing appears to perk up the aging brain.

This effects you...

Not that many of you will care until it shows up on your bills, but...
In Case You Missed It ༺♥༻
The Senate voted 51 to 48:
1. To end coverage for pre-existing conditions, veterans benefits, and aid to rural hospitals.
2. To remove discrimination protection for women in healthcare.
3. Against the provision allowing children to remain on their parent's insurance till the age of 26.
4. To cut off funding for the Child Health Insurance Program (CHIP).
5. Against ACA contraceptive coverage and maternity care provision.
6. To direct committees to send budget legislation to defund and repeal the Affordable Care Act.
For those who get health insurance through work, no pre-existing conditions. Lifetime caps for coverage are back for everyone.
Real actions are being taken that will affect more than just the 20-30 million people who will lose their health care coverage and the 3 million people who will lose their jobs.
Despite their assertions of this being an action to "repeal and replace," no viable alternative plan has been proposed.
As of this moment, no replacement exists.

Great interactive article. I was surprised by foods that I didn't know were high in sugar

See if you can stay under a healthy limit.

Great article. Thanks Michelle!!

Tight hips and hamstrings? The problem may be how you’re standing.

So happy to know that it is never too late to increase muscle mass and stay strong.

Men and women in their 60s and 70s can build muscles that are as strong as a 40-year-old’s, though the process of bulking up works differently in older people than in the young.

Great article. Chang the definition of "throw like a girl"!!! And it is filmed right here in San Diego, including Morley Field in North Park.

The new Fox show, Pitch, imagines a time when women can play Major League Baseball. Is it possible?

Very thoughtful article. Made me consider some of my food choices.

Why "healthy" is the artificial sweetener of the adjective world.

It time to break free from being a "desk turtle". This article from Yoga Journal is great at explaining how and why to stretch your chest wall to help prevent the dreaded rounded back.

Sometimes being Superwoman isn't so super!!!!

Some menopausal women get hot flashes early, some get them late, some get none at all. And then there is the “super flasher.”
