Why? Because expecting your high-def TV to also produce high-quality sound is like going to McDonald’s for a T-bone steak. You won’t be satisfied. The bottom line is that the bedrock for the modern home sound system is the soundbar. Soundbars take the job of nuanced, dynamic sound from your already overworked TV by breaking it down into component parts: the highs, mids, and bass all get the attention they deserve, while software stitches them precisely together....

These 7 moves are designed to target your lower back. In each case, the stretch should be no deeper than a position you can comfortably hold for at least 30 seconds, and should never be so intense as to cause pain. Slowly ease into each position, and when you reach a point of manageable intensity, focus on breathing in and out deeply for 30 seconds to one minute. Child’s Pose Funny, isn’t it, that a likely source of your back pain is also the name of the exercise to ease it?...

My baby is teething, and it’s about as bad as I thought it would be. There’s a lot of crying and fussiness. But my grandmother suggested I put whiskey on my baby’s gums to help her. I’m almost ready to try anything, but should I try that? Randall Bismarck, South Dakota * Whiskey is a fine remedy for any number of maladies, including consciousness, sobriety, and the constant crushing feeling that the world is crumbling, inexorably, around you....

The bill in question allocates $550 billion to infrastructure spending. It would be the “biggest infusion of federal spending on public works in decades,” according to Bloomberg News. But it still is inadequate to tackle the serious economic and environmental problems facing the United States. Here’s what families need to know about what is, and isn’t, in the bill and how Joe Biden plans to keep his campaign promises....

The Biden administration had planned on doing a widespread rollout of the booster shots — the third dose for Pfizer and Moderna receivers and a second for those who got the Johnson & Johnson shot. But on Friday afternoon, the FDA said they didn’t recommend a widespread rollout of the COVID-19 vaccine booster shots, and instead settled on recommending the rollout for targeted groups. But why did the FDA not approve it for everyone?...

The tricky thing about bad habits is that, generally speaking, we know that they’re bad. We know that smoking will eventually kill us, that eating the wrong food is making us fat, that not working out will hurt us in the long run, and yet we continue to indulge in these behaviors anyway. So then the question then becomes why? Why do we do something that we know is destructive and why can’t we stop ourselves?...

Of course, not every cake idea you find online is doable, especially if you can’t remember the last time you actually used your oven. Certain styles of cake — like sky-high layer creations, or anything requiring intricate shaping or carving, should be left to the pros, says Jessica Schwarz, owner of Silverwood Bakery, a McKinney, Texas-based custom cake shop. “I’ve seen a lot of purse cakes or makeup cakes [cakes that are supposed to look like these objects] that just look like lumps....

Under Assembly Bill 1498, the Department of Child Support Services would be required to post the delinquent parents on a public webpage with each person’s picture, full name, and the amount they owe. Parents would receive a 60-day notice before being placed on the list. And to be removed, they would have to make 90 straight days of payments. “What we’re trying to do is use a very effective tool called peer pressure that actually allows people to shape their behavior in a positive way,” the bill’s author, Republican representative Tom Lackey, told ABC7....

Child support is so complicated in large part because most of one’s life gets wrapped up in consideration of it. How is one person defined as the primary parent? Are the family courts biased against fathers? How do you handle late payments? Child support is emotionally daunting and difficult to talk about, and it brings with it an enormous amount of interpersonal stress. But it’s important to understand. We talked to experts about the ins and outs of child support to demystify the process a little bit....

“Speech includes how we pronounce or articulate the sounds in words, the quality of our voice, and the fluency or smoothness of delivery,” says to Melanie Potock, a pediatric speech pathologist, a feeding specialist, and the author of Adventures in Veggieland. Dysfluencies in language – such as stuttering or repeating words or starting sentences over – may be a part of typical speech development as toddlers learn to produce these sounds....

“From the cases that we are seeing and hearing about, the biggest issue is about whether the parties are on the same page with social distancing,” says Sheryl Seiden, a founding partner at Seiden Family Law. “It is important for parents to remember that children need the love and affection of both of their parents in difficult and upsetting times like these, so parents need to put aside their differences and try to agree to a schedule or a system that protects the children physically and emotionally....

“Most children only need a bath a few times a week,” says dermatologist Robert Sidbury of the University of Washington School of Medicine, in a statement for the AAD. “For children, a few germs here and there are healthy, as this is how their bodies learn to fight off bacteria and build stronger immune systems.” When it comes to hair washing, the AAD has your bath schedule on lockdown. Their website essentially provides a flowchart for parents who are weighing the pros and cons of trying to coax their child to embrace shampoo....
