How to Reach the Summit

I am quite content with being a housewife.Although my house is not spotless, it runs smoothly. We have a hot meal every day, and the children are neat and clean. Yet when I look at my neighbor, my efforts pale into insignificance.

MODERN DAY MESHOLIM AND MUSSAR
Somebody Goofed

by Bayla Gimmel

CREATIVITY CORNER
Read and Color

by Devora Piha

Want to improve your child's reading skills? Try using a little color!

Help your child enjoy and remember written material by letting him/her do something they do naturally — color. Let them color words and add their own pictures as they read. Adding one's handwork to the text of another person creates a bond between the author and the reader.

Your Medical Questions Answered!
by Joseph B. Leibman, MD

I am an emergency physician, not a primary care physician, but there are topics that are crucial to speak about. We have spoken before about the cancer that kills the most women, and we are dedicating this column to an article that appeared in the New England Journal of Medicine on 31 July 2005. The subject is for women only so if you are a male reader of my column, you may skip this column this week.
