...Adore the Snore I enjoyed your piece "The Snore Wars" [Sept. 1]. I would like to share a remarkable discovery I made while traveling the country on business and sharing hotel rooms with a male colleague who had a snore like an outboard motor. You cannot win a snore war by fighting the noise; you can win by embracing the sound. Simply set your breathing rhythm to the rhythm of the snore, and the sound becomes a sleep aid. Now I like it when my colleague goes to sleep first because I fall asleep faster. Colin Dangaard, Malibu, Calif...

Even now, he said, though about half of infertility cases are caused by male factors, such as low sperm count or motility, there are many more tests to evaluate a woman's fertility than...
There are many possible explanations for the decline in male fertility, from a decrease in the number of sperm and their motility to lower testosterone levels to the effects of other age-related diseases like diabetes, which is associated with erectile dysfunction and lower levels of testosterone.

Although sperm may be no more than 90 days old, the cells that make sperm...

Joel Stein's wisecrack about Smith College and field hockey was a cheap shot either at women's colleges, sexual preference or the sport [Sept. 1]. It wasn't funny. It was also wrong. Field hockey is largely a male sport internationally, and if Stein had tuned in to any of the Olympic matches, he would have seen jaw-dropping displays of athleticism and speed. Stein should have gone after beach volleyball. Elizabeth Hoffman, HUMMELSTOWN...
