Hanging out at the pool, riding bikes, running through the sprinklers and picnicing in the park… There’s lots to do in during a St. Louis summer. But one thing you shouldn’t go without? Sunscreen.

A study led by Wendy Troxel, PhD, Assistant Professor at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine found that women who were in stable marriages had the highest quality sleep even after taking into account those factors that typically affect a woman’s sleep such as age, socioeconomic status, and depressive symptoms.

A little girl named Bessie Higgenbottom is on a quest to collect every badge in Honeybee history. (Honeybee scouts are sort of like the Girl Scouts of America.) Why? Because she has heard that if you do so you can become a Mighty B superhero.
Can you blame the girl? Who DOESN’T want to be a superhero? That’s the premise behind the Nickelodeon cartoon Mighty B. Recently I was asked to review “The Mighty B – We Got The Bee!” I wasn’t familiar with the show so I didn’t know what …
