THOUGHTS... monthly column by Larry Pesavento
Men, Women and Relationship
Women need to realize that the man they are looking for can't be created through romantic love. They can't love a man into manhood. Love can bring feelings, but not direction. Men need a direction that is found in a journey alone, or with other men. Women must go against their instincts for relatedness and let them go. When men return, their capacity for relationship will be as much as any woman can handle.

COYOTE... monthly column by Dick Prosapio
It's Up There Over My Shoulder
You've probably seen a kestrel right? It's one of those hawks that is able to hover. It flaps its wings like a hummingbird to create a stationary platform while it awaits a tell-tale movement in the weeds below. Well, I've got one hovering above me right now. Soon I'll be going in for a prostate biopsy. I've heard all kinds of tales about this procedure from "excruciatingly painful" to "just a little bite here and there." I'm suspicious of the latter and fearful of the former. My experience with biopsy is based upon a nightmarish event I experienced about thirty years ago when my urologist did a kidney biopsy on me. As I involuntarily jerked with pain he told me; "The kidneys don't have any nerve endings so this can't be painful."

TRANSITIONS... monthly column by Ken Byers, Ph.D.
The Hotdog Man
Sometime during the late sixties the amusement park in New Haven became condos. I had graduated college and moved to Pennsylvania by then but I never forgot the summer nights walking the boardwalk "cruzin' for babes." There was simply no greater time to become a teenager than the early fifties. No civilization before or since in the entire history of the universe will ever have that opportunity to live American Graffiti. None ever had a better time.

THE NEW INTIMACY... monthly column by relationship experts James Sniechowski, Ph.D. and Judith Sherven, Ph.D.
In the old intimacy it seemed like it was fair game to chastise your lover, your spouse for the ways he or she was different from you -- ways that made you mad, upset you, scared you. It was okay to roll your eyes in contempt or be sarcastic as you told your kids how your spouse had been such a goofus earlier that day. It was expected that the best you could do in relating to those annoying differences, was to just "tolerate" them.
