Today being the first full day of summer and all, here’s a visual encore to yesterday’s launch party (scroll down to view). It’s the season to get outside, be active, eat fresh fruits and vegetables… in short, it’s growing season! JUNE from Mark Mazur on Vimeo.

Literally. Despite the headline hots, I’m no fan of hot weather. Summer is only one letter removed from simmer. Even so, there’s something about the arrival of summer that calls for celebration.

I have issues.
Here’s one right here, for example: What’s in this puppy? Well, there is a NEW COLUMN DEBUT: “Kid’s Stuff: Notes from a Pediatric Intern” on hot weather hydration; plus Men’s Health on stress; Rene Le Fort and his cadaver research; The Money Doctor on disability insurance; Bad Billy: Why are drugs so expensive?; World Medicine; poison ivy; brain fitness activities; …
