For the last few weeks, all the rage has been about Thomas Beatie, better known as the Pregnant Man. The story was too good to be true, but it is. Beatie, who used to be a woman, is now legally a man and decided to carry a child instead of his wife, who is no longer able to. What surprised me most was not the media coverage of the story but a reaction I received last week. I had a conversation with a man three times my age and he said he was appalled by Beatie's decision to go through with it and that he owes everyone a glimpse of what he looks like naked (his words, not mine).

Despite city officials' fears that a poor economy will cause an increase in crime, so far that does not seem to be the case.
Sgt. Rich Weiner, Columbus Division of Police spokesman, said there is no evidence of any increase in crime, much in contrast to the fears of some public officials, who thought the ailing economy would spur some to commit crimes, as reported in an April Dispatch article.
