After noticing an increased number of employees leaving Healthwise during the pandemic, company leadership decided to take a novel approach to boost employee morale and increase retention. “We decided it was a good time to try the four-day week,” Healthwise CEO Adam Husney, M.D. told The Idaho Statesman. “We’ve seen very little attrition since that time. Healthwise has always been a place that has cared a lot about its workers, and we’re proud of that....

So, in the interest of coming up with a wacky fan theory that also fits in with a show about a newly married couple, what happens if Vision has to entertain his in-laws for dinner? How will Vision deal with having to have beers with Wanda’s dad? If you answered: He’ll deal with it the way all husbands do; by getting drunk, you’re partially right. But you’d also be missing the fact that Wanda’s dad, at least in the Marvel comics, is none other than Magneto!...

Parents might think they are playfully joking with their child, but intent does not always correlate with impact explains child and adolescent psychologist Sophie Pierce, Psy.D. And these four specific types of communication can make parents sound like a bully, even if they aren’t trying to. “No offense, but…” What people typically mean when they use this phrase is that it’s likely to offend but they are going to say it anyway....

Here’s what you need to know about the moon’s name, when it will rise, why it’s called a ‘micromoon,’ and how to view it. Why is January’s Full Moon called a “Wolf Moon”? According to The Farmer’s Almanac, the Full Moon of January, called the Wolf Moon, gets its name from several sources, including “Native American, Colonial American, and European” traditions that have been passed down for generations. Naming January’s Moon the Wolf Moon is a nod to the animal, the site explains....

Your kids will become mesmerized by this sexy 5-gallon desktop aquarium.

While no material evidence has emerged on Hannity or elsewhere to show that Biden was aware of the gun purchase, Hannity did offer up solid evidence of a dad being a very good parent to a son in trouble — and a textbook case of how to talk to a child who is in trouble. In the message, Biden says, ‘It’s Dad. I called to tell you I love you....

The charismatic Cho just turned 50 in June and is a very private father of two kids; a 14-year-old and a 9-year-old. We recently got the chance to catch up with this thoughtful, low-key actor. Here, he talks about Don’t Make Me Go, his hopes for the long-hoped-for fourth Star Trek movie, why he wrote Troublemaker, his memories of his own father, and what movie he may end up directing....

What is going on with Jupiter in September? It’s not unusual to see other planets in the sky at night. But often, when we see them, it’s by telescope. However, this month we’re getting a unique, rare treat. Jupiter will be closer to Earth than it has been in more than 70 years, according to EarthSky.org. This month, Jupiter will rise in the Eastern sky after sunset and be visible through the night until just before the sun rises....

On September 12, a worldwide team of astronomers released new photos taken from JWST showing the Orion Nebula, which lies some 1,300 light-years away from Earth. According to the researchers, the new images are wow-worthy because there previously hasn’t been a way to see this area with the degree of detail that they were able to pull with the JWST. “It’s just the amazing detail, how sharp the images are, all this filamentary structure,” Els Peeters, an astronomer and one of the principal investigators for the JWST observing program known as Photodissociation Regions for All (PDRs4AlI), told CBC News....

On November 17, NASA tweeted photos of two early galaxies the JWST recently found. “This is a whole new chapter in astronomy,” the tweet read. Of the two new galaxies discovered, one “may contain the most distant starlight ever seen,” NASA noted. “These 2 unexpectedly bright galaxies could fundamentally alter what we know about the very first stars.” Can you explain what we see in these photos like we’re five years old?...

Here’s the deal: There’s a complex network of muscles that surround the base of the penis and extend deep inside the body. These hammock-like muscles hold up your internal organs — namely your bladder and bowels. They’re also responsible for causing the surge of blood to your penis that helps you maintain an erection. Clenching these muscles regularly — what Kegel exercises require — can force more blood into your penis and keep it there longer....

The actor recently spoke to Yahoo! Entertainment to promote his new movie They/Them. The movie, which is a horror-thriller film, is centered around a conversion therapy camp setting and the theme of accepting our kids for who they are, The Hollywood Reporter explains. In the chat with the publication, Kevin admitted that he “struggles” with that subject because he can’t understand “the idea of other parents rejecting their children” who may disclose and identify within the LGBTQ+ spectrum....

In the Instagram video, which clocks in at less than five minutes long, Appleton uses only clippers, scissors, sectioning clips and a hair comb. Whatever custodial parent has taken over the hair-cutting duties for the family may want to check this out. Keep in mind that a buzz cut will do just fine in these trying times. But we all have a lot of time on our hands, so why not learn a new skill?...

The Kinder app uses an enormous set of baby names and all parents have to do is insert the last name and gender of the baby. From there the app generates thousands of potential names. If the parents like one name they can swipe right on it, and they can left swipe the ones they don’t like. Moreover, the parents don’t even have to be in the same room to do it....

To commemorate the movie’s silver anniversary, the company released a 360-piece Jurassic Park Velociraptor Chase set this morning. Centered around the visitor center from the classic film, the admittedly smaller set includes two scenes: the computer control center (“It’s a Unix System!“) and the kitchen area (We hope the doors are buffed to a high shine to help reflections confuse the raptors). Actually, the set comes with an embryo cold storage container, so it’s almost three full rooms....

That’s at least how one journalist sees it. Lisa Taddeo spent the better part of ten years following the lives of three women scattered across the country. There’s Maggie, who was involved in a sexual relationship with her teacher while still in high school, Sloane, who engages in sex with other women without though sometimes in front of her husband, and Linda, a Midwestern mother of two who cheats on her husband in an affectionless marriage....

But I’ve changed my tune. Through the perspective of time (and a few phone calls with management experts) I now know that managing up is a powerful skill — and simply amounts to being clearer-eyed about the two-way street that is a manager-employee relationship. To manage up correctly, you must change from seeing yourself as a passive character waiting for assignments to someone who can empathize with their manager’s position and come to a meeting armed with solutions....
