The student debt is being forgiven for a very specific group of student loan borrowers — those who went to ITT Technical Institute, a for-profit school that no longer exists and that has been regularly accused of pushing vulnerable students into expensive loans. The students who will have their debt forgiven didn’t finish their degrees and left the school after March 31, 2008, per CNBC. The amount of debt that the Biden administration has now forgiven for student borrowers now amounts to nearly $10 billion — $9....

But sadly, while Mr. Musk admitted to making dad jokes, he left the Twitter world in complete darkness as to what they might be. Are they the standard, what-do-clouds-wear-under-their-clothes-type jokes? (Thunderpants, BTW.) Or are they something more disruptive and innovative? For right now, all the world can do is speculate — kind of like people already do about most Musk projects. (How exactly will an anti-traffic tunnel be different than a subway?...

But you probably have never found yourself thinking, “You know what would be the perfect mashup with this song? ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit.’” On the surface, the two songs seem to have less in common than Mr. Rodgers and Eric Cartman but it turns out, due to a 2017 Foo Fighters concert, that the two deeply dissimilar tunes are actually a match made in sonic heaven. At a Foo Fighters concert, former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl brought Rick Astley onstage, where he greeted the crowd with a hearty “Come on, you motherfuckers!...

So what does that look like? Well, in the Nissan Rogue SL FWD, that means 10 airbags, automatic emergency braking, blind-spot warning, rear cross-traffic detection, lane-keeping, advanced cruise control, and automated high beams. The safety system also monitors the alertness of the driver; if you start to drift in and out of your lane a bunch it’ll suggest you perhaps need to take a break. That’s cool. Also cool? If you’ve opened the rear doors at the start of your trip, when you arrive at your destination, your Rogue will beep the horn to remind you to check the back seat, in case you’ve perched a kid back there....

Listen, becoming a new parent opens you up to a whole new world of joy and fulfillment. However, in the early months of their first kid’s life, the stakes are raised considerably and with that comes stress, uncertainty, and the near-constant appearance of squabbles. Newborns are fragile, vulnerable and totally reliant on rookie parents frazzled by the exhaustion that comes with a newborn’s sleep schedule. “Everything is harder to deal with when you are sleep deprived, which the vast majority of new parents experience on a nightly basis,” New York City Psychotherapist and parent coach Olivia Bergeron said....

YETI Tundra Haul Portable Wheeled Cooler YETI’s first wheeled cooler is a mobile take on its time-tested Tundra model, and features a sturdy surrounding a central cavity that can keep your sodas and suds ice cold for an absurd eight days.

And even though the price tag defies you to try roughing it up, its heavy-duty, Rotomolded construction says, “Bring it on!...

Start Now. If there is one certainty about college, it is that it will not be free. In fact, since the mid 1980’s the cost of sending a child to university has continually grown every year. Just this century alone the average cost of education, plus room and board, at four-year public, and private colleges has risen 64 percent and 37 percent respectively. “If you have a child of any age you should be saving money for the college education right now,” says Stack....

Is formula bad for babies? Absolutely not. In the words of Dr. Steven Abrams, chairperson of the American Academy of Pediatrics Committee on Nutrition, “No family should ever feel guilty or ashamed for formula feeding. That serves no purpose and is not consistent with what we know about feeding babies.” Formula-Fed Babies Don’t Struggle to Bond While it’s true that breastfed babies spend a great deal of time experiencing skin-to-skin contact with their mothers, that does not mean that children fed on newborn formula are somehow deficient in parental bonding....

But adult coloring books are also great for kids who are tired of easy designs and want to try something more complicated. Now, a coloring book of swear words and sex references probably isn’t the way to go (a lot of adult books are dirtttty). So, instead, we offer these excellent adult coloring books. They’re challenging, fun, and don’t result in your kid staring at the word ‘Bullshit’ for an hour and a half....

Now, understanding what’s going on in your mind and body during tense moments is key to calming yourself down. So, it’s important to remember that stress-ridden moments involve the fight-or-flight response. Basically, when you perceive a threat — whether your screaming toddler or your toxic boss — your body ramps up as though it’s about to go head-to-head with a snarling forest beast who’s been nosing around your food. Being upset, then, isn’t just an emotional experience, but a physical one, notes Lori Ryland, PhD, a psychotherapist and chief clinical officer at Pinnacle Treatment Centers....

Lawmakers in at least seven Republican-led states—Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Indiana, Montana, Oklahoma and Utah—have enacted laws that prevent schools from requiring either coronavirus vaccinations or documentation of vaccination status in order to attend. The specifics of the laws, which have been introduced in 34 different states, vary. Alabama doesn’t allow educational institutions to add any new vaccines to the list of required inoculations that predated the pandemic. Arkansas explicitly prohibits the requirement of any coronavirus vaccines, while Florida and Indiana banned requiring “vaccine passports....

You’re Lucky — So Take Advantage of It If you are entitled to paid time-off following the birth of a child (i.e. paternity leave), consider yourself lucky. A staggering number of companies and organizations do not offer paid maternity or paternity leave — you essentially have to cobble together sick time, vacation time and unpaid time to care for your child. The good news is that several large and significant companies have elevated their parental-leave policies just this year....

But curiosity is a hallmark of healthy couples. And despite how much you think you know your significant other, there’s always more to learn. You just need to ask the right questions, which is why it helps to have a series of interesting and provocative conversation starters designed to do just that. The more you talk to each other about the way you think, the more you bond, which increases trust and vulnerability....

8. “We’re Going on a Bear Hunt” Not only is this a fun song to sing along with, it also helps young children learn the differences between above, over, and through. This classic folk song was actually made into a book of the same name by Michael Rosen. 7. “Camp Granada” This 1963 novelty song from Allan Sherman is from the perspective of a young camper who’s trying to convince his parents to let him return home....

When done right, a squat happens in one seamless motion: bend-drop-rise. More often than not, though, the squat presents at least one awkward moment: a jerky knee bend, uncomfortable back arch, and pause with your butt hanging way the heck out while your shoulders hunch forward for counterbalance. Finding that sweet spot of easy gliding takes practice. With a few pointers, though, you’ll be maneuvering your way through this exercise like a pro....

The proposed “Fairness in Women’s Sports Act” is an attempt to block transgender kids from playing sports on teams that align with their gender identity. Should it have been passed, the Pennsylvania bill would have required sports or athletic teams for girls and women in public schools from primary through university to only be open to cisgender female students (those who were assigned female at birth). However, the bill was vetoed by the Governor, who said, “that hate has no place in Pennsylvania” and made clear his firm stance that discrimination against trans kids is not acceptable....
