Cran-Fastic The Joke: “When somebody at your table tells you that you’ve been hogging all of the side dishes, you can’t have any more, I hope that you respond with a creed that sums up the spirit of a hungry people: ‘Yes, we cran.’” Who said it: President Obama. No president embraced the dad joke quite like President Obama, who, with a gleeful grin, snatched every opportunity to drop a cringe-y pun or corny one-liner....
Here’s a tip from Dr. Jeremy Fenton of the Schweiger Dermatology Group in New York on how to get the perfect close shave: “Cleanse the face first. Soften the beard. I highly recommend either shaving in the shower or immediately after the shower. If you choose the former, a good investment is a small, anti-fog shower mirror. If you want to really soften the beard, take a towel and wet it, warm it in the microwave and let it sit on the skin for several minutes prior to shaving....
“It’s funny, most people will not think twice about spending several thousand dollars on a new refrigerator to protect their food, yet balk at spending money on a safe,” says Nancy Bryan, the Co-Owner of Maximum Security Safes who has been in the home security space for more than two decades. “Yet a safe will protect their most valuable heirlooms and possessions, items that are often irreplaceable.” Today’s models are as smart and secure as ever, able to withstand everything from burglary tactics to hours in a blazing fire....

We couldn’t have picked a better time. Film is undergoing a renaissance, growing five percent year-over-year, and with this flush has come a crop of excellent Polaroid-like instant cameras. These instant camera models are exceedingly similar to the instant cameras of yore (they use similar film, have a fat flash, and feature more or less the same form factor) except they have a few tech upgrades that make snapping and printing a bit easier....
Marissa Machada, a celebrity groomer who works with Rami Malek and Zachary Levi, is here to tell you that, as much as you might want to, you shouldn’t ignore your nose hair. “I usually take one day a week that I inspect my face in a close-up mirror just to make sure I don’t have any unwanted hair or anything on my face,” she says. “I wish more men did that as well....

If you’re the kind of parent who requires constant reassurance that all is well in the nursery (and you know who you are), or if you simply love gazing at your baby, get a WiFi-enabled video baby monitor. There’s a camera unit placed in the baby’s room, which streams video of the baby to parents via an app. Many have 2-way talk, the ability to zoom in and out, handy night vision, and cry-detection technology....
So, if you don’t know anything about Shang-Chi in the Marvel Comics OR if you’re kind of fuzzy on the MCU timeline, you’re good. This movie is designed to be a crowd-pleaser for all, and with a release date of September 3, 2021, could be a great way to head back to the movie theaters. (Fingers crossed!) But…if you are really into the interconnectedness of the Marvel movie and TV universe, Shang-Chi does have some sly, sideways connections to Iron Man and Ant-Man....
When you see smoke billowing off of a typical campfire, you’re seeing unused fuel escaping into the atmosphere. To do away with this, BioLite engineered the FirePit with 51 individual air jets that inject the fire with oxygen. An internal fan kicks in to create a more uniform temperature, which helps yield a more efficient flame. The FirePit maintains a steady burn for 24 hours on its lowest setting. Medium will get you 10 hours, and the two higher settings can give you up to five hours of fire time....
Instead of a more traditional, numerically descending Dad Beard ranking, this list is more akin to a high school yearbook composed only of bearded superlatives. The qualifications for this illustriously-lustrous facial hair list is pretty unscientific: So technically and retrospectively, maybe this article isn’t even about beards. It’s a tribute to great dads who happen to have beards. Onto the unshaven! Ben Affleck: The Love is Not Dead Dad Beard For a while, it was looking like Ben Affleck’s most successful and committed relationship was going to be with his much-documented daily Dunkin Donuts iced coffee....
Nowhere is this truer than in the case of infant nurseries. When an expectant parent browses Pinterest for nursery ideas, they find image after image of cozy spaces featuring cribs draped with luxurious, soft, throw-blankets and staged with cute stuffed animals. Instagram is full of these photos, too. The message in the images is that babies require the soft and comfortable and that stuffed animals in the crib are cute and harmless....
We found this by way of cold, hard, eagle-eyed research, when we ran out of storage space, all of which was crammed with flimsy, plastic ride-on junk we didn’t want our kid using but that we’d gotten as gifts. Enter the Doona Liki Trike, from the same brand that gave parents the collapsible car seat stroller. This highly modular and folding wheeled toy can’t completely solve the outgrow and toss aside issue because it’s only meant to be used until from age 1 until your preschooler is 36 months old....
I Couldn’t Stand My Wife’s Loud Talking “When you live in close quarters, all sounds get amplified like crazy. My wife claims she doesn’t yell, but she does have a loud speaking voice. As we’re both working from home, I’m set up in the kitchen, and she’s in the spare room. A lot of my work doesn’t require any face-to-face virtual meetings, but hers does. So it just became a constant battle of asking her to talk a little more quietly so I could think, close the door a little, or move to a room farther away....
In early October, you will have the opportunity to see the Draconid Meteor Shower, which is different than many other meteor showers because it is one that is here for a good time, not a long time. Here’s how to make sure you don’t miss the Draconic meteor shower, a fairly short meteor shower that occurs in early October each year, whose meteors come from the comet Giacobini–Zinner. When Is the Draconid Meteor Shower?...
What Is the Ursid Meteor Shower? A relatively new meteor shower, Ursid was discovered around the turn of the 20th Century and, as you may have guessed by its name, reaches its radiant point around Ursa Major and Ursa Minor (also known as the Big and Little Dipper). It’s not the flashiest of meteor showers, as you will likely only see about 5-10 meteors per hour of watching. Though, there are occasional outbursts where you can see up to 30 meteors in an hour....
Officials from St. Joseph, which serves around 10,000 students, say the move might be necessary to address a significant shortage of qualified teachers. A shortened week would also cut down on overhead like utilities and maintenance costs. Four-day school weeks are gaining momentum, particularly in rural areas where it’s more difficult to fill staff vacancies. According to research, in 2021, 1,600 schools in 24 states had adopted a shortened week — up from 257 back in 1999 — and the trend is more common in the South and Western parts of the country....
Then your first child arrives, and there is a seismic eruption of exhilaration, fatherly pride, and family bliss. We did it! This period of unbridled euphoria lasts about 24 hours before the shit makes contact with the fan. Life devolves rather quickly into a mumble-jumble of diaper blowouts, colicky bedtimes, and burping disasters. There’s still joy in Mudville, but it’s tempered a bit over time with crazy soccer carpools, schoolyard dramas, food fights, and epic temper tantrums in the ice cream aisle....
