☆ Why Do I Wake Up Right Before My Alarm?
  + stars: | 2023-06-27 | by ( Melinda Wenner Moyer | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Q: Sometimes I wake up a minute or two before my alarm is set to go off. In one telephone survey published in 1997, for instance, researchers from Iowa and Minnesota randomly interviewed 269 adults mainly in the Midwest. About three-quarters of those interviewed said they sometimes woke up before their alarms, and just under a quarter said they woke up so reliably that they never had to use an alarm. After the research team published a newspaper ad asking for people who always or regularly woke up at specific times without using an alarm, they invited 15 of those respondents into a lab and tracked their sleep for three nights. They found that five of the 15 awoke within 10 minutes of their target wake-up times all three times.

☆ How to Stop Sweating So Much
  + stars: | 2023-06-26 | by ( Melinda Wenner Moyer | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Summer is the season of swimming, sunbathing — and sweating. But while sweating is helpful for cooling us down, few people enjoy having smelly underarms, stinky feet and clothes stuck to their back and groin. And some people sweat excessively no matter the time of year, and in the absence of typical triggers like heat and physical activity. Here’s why some of us get extra swampy, and a few methods to cut down on chronic sweating. Why Some People Are Prone to PerspirePeople can sweat more when they have infections, take medications (such as certain antidepressants) or go through perimenopause or menopause, among other causes, Dr. Bowe said.

☆ Opinion | Classical Crescendo
  + stars: | 2023-05-20 | by ( Maureen Dowd | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
WASHINGTON — The orgasm heard around the world was reported by Magnus Fiennes, a composer and music producer who is the brother of Ralph Fiennes. Some in the audience tweeted back, wondering if the moaning was due to a medical condition. But the woman, who stayed with her smiling partner for the whole concert, has not come forward to clear it up. — it seems that classical music is getting hotter. Albert Imperato, a New York music promoter, says the idea is breaking through that classical music is not supposed to be safe and relaxing.
☆ How Do I Get Rid of Skin Tags?
  + stars: | 2023-05-09 | by ( Melinda Wenner Moyer | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: 1 min
Q: As I’ve gotten older, I’ve noticed more and more skin tags sprouting in odd places on my body. And is there anything I can (and should) do to get rid of them? They can pop up in unusual places: on your neck, under your arms, maybe even around your groin. Research suggests that more than half of adults will develop at least one skin tag during their lifetime. The good news, said Dr. Angela Lamb, a dermatologist at Mount Sinai in New York City, is that they are harmless.
☆ Lean Into Negative Emotions. It’s the Healthy Thing to Do.
  + stars: | 2023-04-21 | by ( Melinda Wenner Moyer | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
It is likely to increase both the intensity of our negative feelings and the amount of time we suffer from them. Those who tried to suppress their feelings reported more pain and couldn’t endure the ice water for as long as those who accepted their discomfort. Participants who said they didn’t usually accept their emotions reported experiencing more negative feelings while they gave the speech. In a follow-up experiment, the researchers found that subjects who didn’t usually accept their emotions reported worse psychological well-being and had more depression and anxiety symptoms six months later. Negative feelings can even serve a purpose, she added.

A tweet said, in part, “The lobby at CERN; Nothing at all demonic to see here…” (here). The posts show what appears to be a 3D art display of demonic figures or creatures climbing out of the floor, with observers in the background. An online search for the photo leads to a blog post (here), (here) by 3D artist Kurt Wenner (kurtwenner.com/biography/). He was commissioned by Microsoft Studios to promote the “Gears of War” video game series, the first installment of which was released in November 2006. The photo shows a 3D art illustration by artist Kurt Wenner at a gaming expo in 2006 and does not show the CERN lobby.
☆ Parents of successful kids don't worry about screen time, expert says—they teach these 3 skills instead
  + stars: | 2022-11-27 | by ( Melinda Wenner Moyer | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
And as much as we wish we could, we can't completely shield our kids from screens. While researching for my parenting book, I found that the most successful parents don't spend time worrying about how much time their kids spend on digital devices. Instead, they teach these three skills to help their kids become "screen smart":1. How to draw screen boundariesIf you feel you have too little control over your kids' screen use, or you want to establish some rules and expectations, consider sitting down for a family meeting to create a digital road map. Allow your kids to include their input and share how your technology use will fit into the roadmap, too.

Media mogul Jann Wenner told Joe Rogan that he believes people earning $20,000 should pay no tax. For society's super rich, the lowest rate of tax should be 50% and it should "escalate up" from there. Wenner, who founded Rolling Stone, made the comments on "The Joe Rogan Experience" podcast. Appearing on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast, the cofounder of Rolling Stone magazine discussed his latest book "Like a Rolling Stone: A Memoir" as well as drug legalization and tax rates. For a single taxpayer, the top federal income tax rate for 2022 is 37%, except for long-term capital gains and qualified dividends.

At a first play date, your shy toddler might sit on your lap the whole time. On the second play date, he might say a few things to the other child but still, periodically, have a death grip on your leg. But by the third play date, he may well be off and running.
