...only male (besides my fat brown Lab, Otto) among four females in my nuclear family? While Otto and I are adored and tolerated in pretty much the same way, he can always amuse himself during these estrogenic family nights by sleeping in a corner or quietly licking himself. I cannot get away with that, though I have tried. What I needed was a big dose of technology to get me through this ordeal. (Watch TIME's video "HD Projector Movie Night...

Experts say part of the reason it is so common to intervene in dementia cases is that the patient, by definition, cannot make medical decisions autonomously, leaving a relative or friend to serve as their health-care proxy.

...Most will raise rates - but one very conspicuous central bank is unlikely to follow suit. With the U.S. jobless rate at 9.8% and still rising, the U.S. Federal Reserve cannot risk a rate increase anytime soon, despite the danger of inflation. Raising rates would add to the burden on U.S. businesses, particularly small- and medium-size enterprises that account for the majority of U.S. jobs. Higher rates would also make mortgages, credit-card debt and other forms of personal financing more expensive, further crimping consumer spending, which accounts for the bulk...
