Nanit Breathing Wear Nanit, makers of a connected, overhead baby monitor, released two new garments, a Breathing Band and Swaddle. Both are adorned with special patterns of squares that allow the monitors to track a baby’s breathing rate and, most importantly, alert you when no breathing motion is detected. They’ll be available in single- and three-packs priced from $25, with a monitor, band, and swaddle bundle on sale for $379. They won’t hit the market until March, but you can sign up for the waitlist now on the company’s website....

As a show of support for Teigen and the doctors who cared for her, seven of Teigen’s friends donated blood at a Halloween blood drive—in effect replacing the seven pints she received during her stay. Led by Kimmie Kyees, a celebrity manicurist, the septet chronicled their donations in photos and threw together a slideshow that Teigen shared on Instagram along with a heartfelt note. “Phewwwww the tears. I’m overwhelmed by our circle of friends....

“I had such an unconventional path so early on that I think I was so well acquainted with the idea that taking a risk is only as valuable as being able to accept it,” says Wade. In a culture where we act as human adversity obstacles, sheltering our kids from tough choices and tougher challenges, this book takes a different approach: But what if I go the wrong way? The Road curved a little,almost as if it was giving me a hug, and said,Do not worry....

The officially-licensed ‘Echo Base’ collection ⏤ which (weirdly) celebrates the 37th anniversary of the greatest Star Wars movie of all time, The Empire Strikes Back, and has nothing to do with The Last Jedi ⏤ goes on sale this Friday online and in select Columbia stores around the country. It includes three coats: Luke’s ‘Warmer Than a Tauntaun’ water-resistant jacket-vest combo with stowable hood; Leia’s similarly styled ‘May the Force Be With You’ Echo Base jacket; and Han’s badass blue, three-quarter length parka with faux-fur trimmed hood....

The Low Positivity Rate, Explained Compared to the winter surge of 2020 to 2021, in which 13 percent of tests were coming back positive, the total of 2 percent of positive tests is great news, per The Wall Street Journal. There are several different factors at work here — namely that labs across the United States processed about 677,000 tests in the time the 2 percent positivity rate came back, whereas they were processing some two million during the fall and winter peaks of COVID-19....

Think of the Crua Clan tent as a central living room with three adjoining bedrooms. In the middle is the Crua Core, a 16-feet by 12-feet (192-sqft), 33-pound, air-framed tent with a built-in stove jack and a garage door for backing up your SUV. It costs $549. Three sides of the Crua Core have a door to connect detachable two-person lightweight hiking tents, the Crua Duo. The water-repellent Crua Duo features bug-proof mesh, aluminum poles, and a storage foyer for your gear....

But sleep-deprived parents can always take some solace in knowing they aren’t alone in the misery and laugh together in their shared struggle. One TikTok dad perfectly summarized the experience of trying to get a baby to fall asleep and his relatable video quickly went viral. In the video, Aaron (better known on TikTok as thedad.father) has just settled in after finally getting his baby to go to sleep. He checks the baby monitor two minutes later only to discover that the baby (also played by Aaron) is wide awake and does a Seth Rogen chuckle while staring down the baby monitor camera....

“It’s the same reason they targeted John Boyega for playing a Stormtrooper in Star Wars. They are people who are fundamentally against progress. As the election shows and these films show, progress is inexorable,” says Oyelowo. “People want to see themselves reflected in these movies. Why shouldn’t a stormtrooper be represented by different kinds of people? But actually, I like that it’s being aired that these people are out there and we know about them....

Let’s first get this out of the way: You can’t taste things with your testicles. (Sorry everyone). But — shockingly — the viral trend does have a basis in truth. Testicles do, in fact, have taste receptors. The thing is, according to a 2013 study, the taste receptors in testicles aren’t the same as those in our mouths. “There’s a tricky little difference between taste receptors on the tongue and those in the testicle,” urologist Paul Turek told the Huffington Post....

Fatherly caught up with Dr. Ruth, who teamed up with Mr. Peanut to answer amorous questions on Twitter as part of Planters’ #CrunchTime hotline. She and the monocled legume were not equally knowledgeable on intimate matters (only half that duo possesses genitalia), so Fatherly directed all question to the one and only Dr. Ruth. How can dads make get moms more excited about sex and intimacy? It’s true that children take a lot of their attention and women do get tired, so dads need to make sure mom knows you love her, not only because she’s the mother of your child or children, but because she is herself....

Dads aren’t cool. We wear bad clothes, stupid shoes, clip phones to our belts. We’re the ones dancing awkwardly in commercials, embarrassing the kids, and constantly failing to stay relevant. Want to kill a trend? Have your Dad do it. Say goodbye to dabbing and hello to Dadding! How do you describe a lousy body? Call it a “Dad Bod.” Want to slam a co-worker’s terrible joke? Roast them for making a “Dad Joke....

When formaldehyde is present in the air at levels higher than 0.1 parts per million (ppm), it can cause watery eyes, burning in the throat and nose, coughing, wheezing, and skin irritation. Let’s be clear: The most effective way to improve your indoor air quality is by opening a window and letting in outdoor air (and not with an abundance of house plants, despite what you may believe). But when that’s not an option, portable air purifiers can help....

It’s been 30 years since Eddie Murphy has done serious stand-up, which will make some of us feel very, very old. If you were a kid in the ’80s, then you remember a time when Eddie Murphy was the funniest person the planet. Personally, as 12-year-old, I couldn’t get enough of Eddie Murphy playing Gumby on Saturday Night Live, yelling “Merry Christmas, Damnit.” Should I have been watching Eddie Murphy as a 12-year-old?...

“I’m not at risk for COVID, nor are my kids,” he told Kara Swisher on her new podcast. He did not provide any evidence for this claim, and the CDC says “everyone is at risk for getting COVID-19 if they are exposed to the virus.” Musk did not elaborate on why he feels the way he does, but his comments aren’t exactly unexpected given his history of COVID-19 skepticism. In January, Musk predicted that this coronavirus would be “comparable to other forms of influenza” in terms of its virality....

Note: To qualify for this list, the remake has to have the same name as an animated Disney original. So, weird spinoffs like Maleficent or sequels to remakes like Alice Through the Looking Glass aren’t included. 9. Dumbo (2019) The new Dumbo is a very strange movie. It blows through a Cliffs Notes version of the original Dumbo plot at warp speed, undermining all its big emotional moments, so it can devote two-thirds of its two-hour runtime to a weird plot about an evil theme-park magnate played by Michael Keaton buying the circus....

Manufacturer GlaxoSmithKline recently announced that they halted the production of both varieties of the well-known blend of aspirin, acetaminophen, and caffeine. “Through routine quality control and assurance measures, we discovered inconsistencies in how we transfer and weigh ingredients for Excedrin Extra Strength Caplets and Geltabs and Excedrin Migraine Caplets and Geltabs,” it said in a statement that doesn’t really say much of anything. But while GSK is being cagey about what the specific issue is, the company is assuring consumers that their existing supplies of these medicines don’t pose a safety risk, describing the production interruption as “a precautionary measure....

Understanding the need for assistance, yesterday, House Democrats introduced the “Families First Coronavirus Response Act,” a 124-page piece of legislation that would provide paid sick leave to workers who don’t already have it, establish free tests for Coronavirus and the COVID-19 illness it causes, and help families not feel the economic brunt of a global pandemic so severely. The legislation is expected to be voted on by the House today, March 12....
