National Geographic ( October) was quite good, with a great cover story about Neanderthals: The Other Humans. One amazing thing is that they have been able to extract DNA from some recent fossil discoveries. What if they could clone that? It turns out this species was not nearly as dumb as they have often been portrayed, and it still remains a mystery as to why we survived and they did not. All the other articles were good too, especially the article about India's new highway system.

Playboy (October) was a standard issue. Two pieces especially stood out, the article about the use of Adderall on college campuses, and the conclusion of the Noir novel by Denis Johnson, "Nobody Move." A great conclusion to this four part novel, it of course ended fast and furious.

Zoonooz (October) was pretty standard (which is not really a compliment for this publication). The redesign is coming in January, and I hope it looks and reads a lot better.
