A few years ago, the APA released practice guidelines for therapy with men and boys. An APA press release on the new guidelines made clear just what those guidelines amounted to: an assault on traditional men and boys. “They draw on more than 40 years of research showing that traditional masculinity is psychologically harmful and that socializing boys to suppress their emotions causes damage,” reads the press release. “The main thrust of the subsequent research is that traditional masculinity—marked by stoicism, competitiveness, dominance and aggression—is, on the whole, harmful....

However, despite the nostalgic wonders the Analogue Pocket brings, one thing that may deter some from picking it up is that the device only accepts physical cartridges. Of course, this is no big deal for players who have access to their old game cartridges or for those whose parents have a sealed copy of Pokemon Blue lying around. However, for players who don’t have cartridges on hand, the Analogue Pocket doesn’t do much apart from other features that are not related to gaming....

A shocking Saturday at Newlands saw Australia opener Cameron Bancroft admit to ball tampering, with skipper Steve Smith confessing the team’s leadership group had been responsible for devising a plan to manipulate the ball. Smith and his vice-captain, David Warner, were subsequently stood down from their roles for the remainder of the Test, with Tim Paine appointed acting skipper. And Smith will now miss the series finale after he was handed a one-match ban by the ICC....

Ever since Cesare Prandelli took over from Lippi in 2010 after Italy’s shameful exit from the World Cup, he has won just three games out of 12 friendly matches. Those 12 matches included six defeats and three draws, losing his first-ever game as the national coach in a friendly against Ivory Coast. Judging his managerial acumen by reviewing the poor results in friendlies is unfair on Prandelli; he led Italy to the final in last year’s Euro Championship and he regularly fields strong teams in friendly games....

Wolter’s experience with postpartum depression is vastly more typical than Andrea Yates’s. Indeed, PPD very rarely results in the kind of tragedy that unfolded in Houston last week. Still, it is a serious and debilitating disorder that calls for prompt treatment. Unlike the “baby blues,” a temporary period of weepiness that up to 80 percent of new mothers undergo, PPD is characterized by persistent feelings of anxiety, hopelessness and guilt, insomnia, lack of motivation and, sometimes, thoughts or fantasies of harming oneself–or even the baby....

This meant that congratulations were in order for Stoic’s Arnie Jorgensen. After all, this was another, important step towards completing one of the most unique and intriguing RPG properties of recent years. Thankfully, Game Rant had the chance to talk with Jorgensen about The Banner Saga, from its Kickstarter roots through to the changes that Stoic is going to ring in with the last part of the trilogy. For starters, Jorgensen was quick to talk about the potential volatility of funding a game through Kickstarter, and how much of a relief it was to see the fans of The Banner Saga return to fund its final outing....

Embiid went to Los Angeles to get a second opinion on a stress fracture in his back, an injury that will keep him out of the Big 12 tournament. But will Embiid be able to play in the NCAA Tournament?

It was back in 2002 that then-commissioner Stern said in a press conference that the NBA would be expanding into Europe, and that it would happen, “within a decade.” Reminder: That was 13 years ago, and a decade is composed of 10 years. MORE: Silver on plans for European teams | Injury bug bites ‘14 rookie class | Cavs predictions Speaking in London on Thursday, where the Knicks and Bucks were facing off in the fifth regular-season game to be played in the city, Silver admitted that the NFL was ahead of the NBA in terms of getting a team located in Europe, but that the NBA still is bound by some sort of predestination to have teams in Europe....

They’re wrong. Hypermodern Shanghai is very good at one thing: business. For many ordinary Chinese, the true variety and chaos of the People’s Republic is most concentrated in Beijing. People swarm here from all over the country, legally or not, lured by the opportunities, the possibilities and the sense of cultural ferment. “Beijing has students, artists, officials, executives, entrepreneurs–all coming and going, all buying things, all looking for places to live....

Of course, what is blood-curdingly terrifying to one person barely registers to another. The Exorcist, for example, may leave devout Catholics quaking in the aisles, while others find themselves laughing at the various shocking things Linda Blair’s character finds herself doing, especially as the key scenes have been (almost literally) spoofed to death. With that in mind, we asked Newsweek’s culture writers to highlight some of their essential horror movies that they find themselves returning to Halloween after Halloween – the ones they love the most, that scare them the most, or that diabolically combination of the two that horror fans look for....

For some clubs, a one-year veteran deal has become a last resort as the progression toward younger rosters continues. However, depending on a team’s needs, the use of such pacts can have a strong impact on its overall roster construction. For the club, the uncertainty of the outcome is a risk worth taking. As for the player, often times the deal they take is the only one they received....
