Miles apart from India, here in Michigan I wake up. First thing, I open up India’s leading news website to catch up on what is happening in one of the most promising and an economically rising nation.

Dear Tamara:

I have a huge relationship dilemma. My boyfriend and I have been dating since our sophomore year in high school. Yes, we are your stereotypical match made in heaven. The captain of the football team and head cheerleader, the prom king and queen, voted most likely to be married, etc., etc. Everyone, thinks we are a perfect couple. The problem is, my boyfriend accepted a scholarship to a school out west and I am in Ohio. It feels like we are worlds apart and I think the distance between us has changed our relationship.

I’ve been seeing a lot of cases of “hand, foot and mouth disease” (HFM) in the office lately. This illness is usually caused by a Coxsackie virus A-16, a member of the enteroviral family. These viruses are typically seen in the summer and early fall. (Don’t worry, this illness is not related to “hoof and mouth” disease seen in animals.)

By reference Librarian Mari G.

A few years ago while driving through Big Sur, California, I stumbled across a state park that boasted a beautiful waterfall called McWay Falls. Stopping along the side of the road to admire the falls dumping into the Pacific Ocean, I noticed a tiny wedding ceremony in progress. I remember thinking: Wow-rigging your wedding to take place near a natural scenic treasure is incredibly romantic!
