The new system is designed to detect images of child sexual abuse on customers’ devices in the United States before they are uploaded to iCloud. If an image is detected, a human reviewer will review the photo to confirm that it is child sexual abuse and report the finding to law enforcement and/or the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. The person’s iCloud account will also be disabled, per Apple, NPR, and the BBC....

What is the August Sturgeon Moon? According to the Old Farmer’s Almanac, the Sturgeon Moon got its name from the strange-looking fish called a sturgeon. The site explains that the fish was readily caught at this point in the summer in Lake Champlain and the Great Lakes. “These prehistoric-looking fish have been traced back to around 136 million years ago and many people call them ‘living fossils,’” the site explains. Unfortunately, due to over-fishing, there are fewer sturgeon fish in the lakes than there used to be....

Which is why it can be tough for parents, like my wife and I, who want to introduce their young kids to music. And why we were so impressed by the Woofer guitar from B. Toys. Not only did our three-year-old daughter start shredding on it like Slash at Monsters of Rock, but it’s inspired her to dance, sing, and riff like she never has with her other musical toys....

So it won’t come as any surprise to you when your own little beast wants (no, demands) to be in on the night-eating action. It’s in their very blood. Oh, and also, they literally cannot eat enough to fuel their growth during business hours. So, there’s that too. RELATED: How to Bottle Feed a Baby But how do you deal with your late night luncher? Here are some tips....

Curious why infants, especially preemies, hiccup so much, University College London researchers monitored 13 newborns with persistent hiccups. By attaching brainwave-tracking electrodes to their scalps and movement sensors to their torsos, they discovered that each time the diaphragm muscle contracts, causing a hiccup, it triggers three large brainwaves within the cortex. Because the third wave resembles those provoked by noises, the researchers believe this signal allows babies’ brains to connect the “hic” sound of a hiccup to the sensation of their diaphragm muscle contracting....

“Babies can do anything in the womb that we do as adults,” explains OB/GYN Kecia Gaither, M.D., Director of Perinatal Services at NYC Health + Hospitals/Lincoln. That doesn’t mean that a fetus is writing a great American novel, but it does mean that the basic biological processes are up and running. Here are some of the more intriguing and counterintuitive. Babies Pee in the Womb “We all developed in a sack of our own urine,” Gaither says....

The plush toy from Hasbro is just 7.5 inches tall and 10 inches from ear to ear, which isn’t that far from life-size, when you think about it. It has a molded plastic head with solid detailing: wrinkled texture, subtle color highlights in the ears, a tiny nose, and the massive eyes that make Baby Yoda so captivating. The hands at the end of this Baby Yoda’s poseable arms are also plastic, but the rest of the doll is a soft stuffed animal sheathed in a warm-looking collar and plain tan robe, an outfit that is faithful to what the little guy wears onscreen....

For kiddos whose interests revolve around costumed heroes from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, there’s arguably no collection of superheroes with better words of wisdom and resilience than Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, the Avengers. Below are the most inspiring quotes — organized by character — from various Avengers, throughout all 27 MCU films. Captain America (Steve Rogers) “I can do this all day.” – Captain America in Captain America: The First Avenger (2011) “You start running, they’ll never let you stop....

Modular Robotics These blocks snap together using magnets and ball-bearings to form thousands of robots. Kids as young as 4 years old can build simple robots (and their understanding of larger systems) with Cubelets, while MOSS kits offer more complex robot builds that older kids can program to respond to light and proximity. With all those cubes, it’ll be like Minecraft come to life, only you’ll have a chance in hell at understanding how it works....

RELATED: The Best Toddler Climbing Toys And Tumbling Mats Flat-pack playhouses are usually (but not always) made of heavy-duty cardboard, require no tools to assemble, and store away flat when not being used as a rampart in a spirited Nerf dart war. The beauty of the thing is that the unbeautiful thing can be put away, stored in a closet, under a bed, or in the garage. Need a forward operating base on a moments notice?...

According to federal records, more than four million people still carry FFEL loans, once the primary lending vehicle for families who needed to finance higher education. The program was shuttered in 2010. Biden’s loan forgiveness package, which promises debt forgiveness of up to $20,000, only applies to Federal Direct loans, which are both owned and backed by the government. FFEL loans were provided by private lenders but with government support....

“I hate those people that have kids and then they become this new person,” Burr explained, adding, “They pretend like they weren’t this guy doing keg stands and driving drunk or whatever the hell you did.” And when host Meyers asked if Burr’s newfound reflectiveness (he mentioned he was thinking of going to church again) was a result of becoming a dad, Burr responded, “I never had that moment. I was a jerk so I’m not going to try to become somebody I wasn’t....

Sihota’s curiosity eventually lead to a research review on the subject with her colleagues at the University of British Columbia, which was published last year. The study added to a small but growing body of research focusing on the father’s perspective, which is often an overlooked aspect of breastfeeding. Researchers agree that breastfeeding is good for babies and moms. Breastmilk likely protects babies from infections, makes them less likely to become overweight, and the bacteria in breastmilk builds the foundation of an infants’ gut microbiome — the ecosystem of microbes inside the digestive system that can help keep a person healthy throughout their life....

The photo appears to be a nod to the family’s Star Wars legacy (Lourd herself appeared in The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker), with the baby wearing an adorable space-themed onesie. And we can probably guess that the “Fisher” in Kingston’s name is an ode to Lourd’s late mom. In terms of baby announcements, this one definitely took fans and other celebrities by major surprise....

There are some clues to the mad-moms lack of forethought. For one, she laments how Millennials will never know the exhaustion of chasing a three-year-old around the park. Also, she whines about having said three-year-old in line for three hours while the kid gets cranky and suggests mothers with kids should be able to skip all lines. All of this suggests she made the classic Disney World parenting mistake in assuming she could just show up whenever and have a blast....

That deceptively effortless ability to connect with others could also be Pratt’s own superpower. He’s a pro at seemingly not taking himself all that seriously while being hyper-serious about the work he’s paid a lot of money to do. That’s him, musing about the intended purpose of a rather puzzlingly phallic face roller used by his groomer before a day of press. That’s him sporting what passes for an actual mud mask while shooting his next series, The Terminal List....

Originally released to about 800 families and educators through a successful 2013 Kickstarter campaign, Primo Toys’ Cubetto teaches kids as young as three years old programming fundamentals through tactile interaction with a toy they totally get: a sweet, smiling wooden block. Kids program Cubetto to move along a specified course on a map by arranging 16 colored-coded chips in a particular order on a Bluetooth-enabled “pad” (also made of delightful, blonde wood)....

On Monday, September 26, a D.C. Council committee met to advance a bill that would make public transit far more affordable and accessible in many cases. The bill would give most residents $100 a month to be used toward Metrobus and Metrorail transit, taking this expense off the plates of already stretched families and encouraging folks who often drive to take transit instead. “The council’s five-person transportation committee unanimously voted to approve the bill,” DCist reports, “sending it to the full legislature for debate and a first vote as early as October....

She teased me and asked if I knew what it meant. I didn’t want to be presumptuous. Then she said, “Not only are you a DILF, you’re also a FILF!” I’m not sure that’s much better. And here I thought the evening was going well! Then a light bulb turned on. I chuckled and replied, “That’s the nicest thing anybody has said to me in a while!” This story was submitted by a Fatherly reader....
