The cardinal and the Cosmo girl

The National Catholic Register website today features an op-ed in which I reflect on the life and legacy of longtime Cosmopolitan editor Helen Gurley Brown.Don’t be put off by the essay’s polemic headline, which was added by the editors. Although I do talk about Brown’s promotion of the “culture of use,” I’m more interested in how she came to dance with Dolan.

Cat Stuff…

My cri de coeur as to whether I should keep putting up news of the Monsignori drew a pretty large response from my readers, confirming my suspicion that the majority of you are really interested in the cat posts and the Catholicism bit is a bonus.When I returned from Eastbourne, I knew that Monsignor Furretti would be all over me like a rash. She was pretty clingy as a kitten, and has grown up to be rather attention-seeking

This is your brain on drugsThe New Scientist: The study showed that those who developed the most persistent dependence on the drug showed the greatest subsequent decline in IQ, losing 6 points on average regardless of how early the habit began. Within that group, those who began taking the drug before their 18th birthday saw a subsequent decline in IQ of 8 points, on average.Furthermore, friends and relatives close to the persistent cannabis users reported that these users had more everyday memory and attention problems, including forgetting to pay bills and misplacing common items like keys and wallets.Really?I’m totally shocked!I never would have anticipated such a result
