It’s the Christmas season, and signs of kindness are essential. I particularly enjoy stories like this one from the Naperville Sun.
Too often we hear only about the greed: Black Friday Stampedes; fights and extortion-like auctions for the season’s hot toys. This darker elements need to be driven back by brighter stories of generosity and kindness. […]
Yes, it seems our days of reporting on Ms. Porter are indeed coming to an end. If the Scotsman is to be believed, then Gail’s hair has almost completely regrown.
It’s been coming back for about four months. I was in Africa a few weeks ago with a charity, and when I got back about 70 […]

Today I’d like to introduce you to Laurie from Canada. She is “39 years old with two kids and breast cancer,” and she is chronicling her treatment at Not Just About Cancer.
Here is a sampling from this past May:
Now, I am bald and bloated. Surgery and chemo have taken their toll on my body. But […]
This is interesting. Kursad Turkmen, a Turkish scientist working at the University of Ottawa has succeeded in “reproducing skin with hair” as part of his “research on skin using stem cells.” I put all that in quotes, because the article is rather vague.
