Sweet and social, gorgeous LeeLoo, a native of Canadas French-speaking Quebec province, is expanding the definition of what it means to be a cat. Perhaps she has a canine gene: Leeloo fetches balls of crumpled-up paper and returns them every time to her person, Yana Klimava. A water baby at heart, Leeloos also working on a technique to turn on the faucet all by herself. Voil bien un chat!

BANK HOLIDAY (UNITED KINGDOM) LABOUR DAY (QLD AUSTRALIA)1 . Monday . May 2017

WINNER OF THE WEEK He may look like a wildcat bounding right for you, but big boy Jaxon is actually a big cuddler. Hes also resourceful: The five-year-old Pixie-bob has extra toes, which enable him to use his paws like hands to pick up things and feed himself, according to owner Shari Rife. Pixie-bobs are known as the Golden Retriever of cats, and he exhibits this trait by carrying toys from floor to floor in the house. Jaxon began life in the northwest United States, where Pixie-bobs were first bred, but now resides in Sharis Vernon, Connecticut, home.

FASHION AND BEAUT Y After World War I, women began riding astride instead of sidesaddle, and fashionable equestrian wear was redesigned accordingly. Women now wore modern divided skirts or generously cut breeches, while men still donned formal riding jackets and jodhpurs. As the decade progressed, riding clothes became more casual, with narrower trousers and less structured sweaters.

Thra (Santorini) is the

most renowned of the

islands--its location on

the rim of a collapsed

volcano is breathtaking.

Mykonoss high energy

has long attracted stylish

visitors. Also search

out the lesser-known,

and more authentic,

sister islands: Milos,

Folegandros, Paros, and

Naxos are quiet and

delightful, while tiny

Tinos is the religious

center of the country.

is set beneath the white peaks of

the Annapurna range, often reflec

of Pokhara Lake. It has gained

fame as a base for yoga, meditati

THE BOOK OF QUESTIONS CALENDARGregory Stock, Ph.D.

Returning after a strong debut, this is the thought-provoking calendar adapted from the phenomenal New York Times bestselling The Book of Questions, which has over 2.6 million copies

in print. On each page is an open-ended question that has no right or

wrong answerbut provokes insights into oneself and stimulates

lively discussion with others. Here are questions about love, about

morality, about privacy and technology. Questions with societal

implications (Do you want to see television censored to remove all

physical violence? What if it would reduce crime by 25 percent?) and

questions that are intensely

personal (What is the biggest

sacrifice you ever made for

another person? Would you

make the same sacrifice again?).

Returning after an excellent debut

Hundreds of open-ended questions guaranteed to provoke lively thinking

Adapted from the phenomenal New York Times bestseller, with over 2.6 million copies in print

The Power of Planning

Dwight Eisenhower observed,

Plans are worthless, but

planning is everything.

Take time to do some helpful

planningwhether that

means what youll eat for

dinner this week, what dates

youll take a vacation, or where

your career is headed.

Questions to Ask Yourself

Architect Frank Lloyd Wright observed, A true home is the finest ideal of man, and the challenge lies in that word true. What would be true for you? What would make your home a happier place?

3 Tips for Handling Criticism1. Listen to what a critic is saying. Really listen, try

to understand that point of view; dont just nod while you formulate retorts. Acknowledge fair criticism.

2. Delay your reaction. Count to ten, take a deep breath, sleep on it, wait until the next day to send that email . . . any kind of delay is good.

3. Admit your mistakes. If you accept blame when you deserve it, people are more likely to give you responsibility.

Power HourMost of us have a long list of chores we need to tackle

tasks that arent urgent and therefore can be indenitely

postponed. Over time, these unnished chores drain our energy.

Try a Power Hour. Do whatever you can do, for sixty minutes.

An hour doesnt sound like much time, but its manageable, and its

long enough to get things done.Replace lightbulbs, run to the hardware store, deal with vacation

photos, clean out a closet, or drop off some items at a thrift store.

Its amazing how much can get done in just a few months, one hour

at a time.
