Here are 7 tips for keeping your feet healthy and beach ready.

Male feet have a limited audience.

Common Drugs May Be Contributing to Depression

Over one-third of Americans take at least one medication with depression as a potential side effect, a new study reports.

Suicide is always an option.
It punishes the living.

I do not find punishment attractive.

The V.A. is supposed to stop killing vets.

House Hunting in … England

The housing market in South West England has been steadily improving since the 2008 financial crisis, but the high end is still below its 2007 peak.

My ancestors left Britain for good reasons.
Those reasons have not perished.

East House is a Victorian fantasy.   I would go mad.

$4.75 Million Homes in California, New York and Illinois

A storybook-style house on Belvedere Island, an 1858 Italianate house overlooking the Hudson River and a lakefront condominium in Chicago.

Belvedere is almost livable.
It is a brick house in an earthquake area.

All are white elephants.

He Wore It First

Why do all these men look so dreadful? Baggy blazers. Ugly sneakers. Light-wash jeans. Welcome to your dad’s closet.

I don't need a designer label.

The fashionable are passing as responsible adults.

Gift Ideas for the Vast Array of Dad Types

Father's Day is June 17, which is very soon.

The type is varied. 
Get a gift that fits the relationship.
Some are ironic, some are loving.
Some are both.

It is not a holiday in my calendar.

A phone call or visit would do for me.
Sooner is better.    As soon as you can is best.

Florida Police Chief and 2 Officers Are Accused of Framing Teenager for Burglaries

The three men were indicted on civil rights violations this week, five years after a 16-year-old was charged with four felony burglaries in the Village of Biscayne Park.

There must be a trial.
The result of these false accusations is equivalent to murder.

Bachelorettes in Boots Take On Nashville

“They can be a bit loud or a bit messy, but we love them,” says Butch Spyridon, the chief of the city’s convention bureau, of the pre-wedding parties.

Your party, your cost.

Sooner is better.   As soon as you can is best.

Any ceremony you can get that you want.
I want to get on with the main event.

Disrespect and the $20 Bill

A reader writes that Trump’s refusal to commit to putting Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill is emblematic of his blatant disrespect for black women.

Put endangered species on the fiat money.
Specie for the specious.

A Community Cracked Open by Fracking

Eliza Griswold’s “Amity and Prosperity” follows a single mother’s fight against the impact of fracking in her Pennsylvania county.

Fracking is against the law in New York State.
That law may be temporary.

Confidence in Twitter Is Growing, and Its Stock Is Up — But Can It Keep Going?

The social network’s total user numbers may be slow to grow, but that isn’t dampening investor enthusiasm for the company. For now, anyway.

Twitter requires original thought.
Retweets do not have much impact.
It does not present much hope as a business.
