So it would follow that training methods for one won’t work for the other, right? Well, one company is trying to translate the popular “clicker training” method for dogs into teaching people how to do their jobs or their sports better. It’s called TAGTeach and it works (for both species) like this: the desired response is communicated, verbally for humans, non-verbally (or using very short commands) for dogs, and the clicker is sounded....

So naturally, since they’re swimming in it, how much (on men) do they prefer to swim in? A lot? A little? None? Thus begins the Great Dude Pube Debate of 2016!

But which dick hairdo reigns supreme? Let’s roll the tape....

I’ve heard women swear by them for years, but it took me a while to finally try them. When I did, I was hooked. I hardly ever use a dry cleaner now, and I’m able to buy far more ‘dry clean only’ pieces, because I don’t have to factor outrageous dry cleaning prices into my decision. If you’ve never used a home dry cleaning product before, it’s super easy. They come with a spot treating fluid that you use first to eliminate spots and stains....

As soon as fall rolls around the corner, I start making a list of everything I can add pumpkin to. Sure there are the breads and cakes, but adding pumpkin to mac and cheese is just pure genius.

Not only is this recipe super easy to whip up on a chilly night, but it can be cooked in two different ways....

So as we always do, we had to ask: How true is the sizing? How practical are these pieces? Are they worth the splurge? Luckily for us, Swimsuits For All sent us the entire collection so we could see for ourselves. You can tell just by looking at these pictures that the Water Slide’s bottoms ran a little tight, but not so much that I felt I should size up....

Mason Brian Barclay and Houston Shelton are new besties. And like with most new friendships, they want to spend all their free time together, including on the weekends. But Shelton’s parents have a strict “no boys” rule when it comes to sleepovers, presumably because if a girl has a boy sleep over, the last thing on their minds is going to be sleep. More from CafeMom: Kindergardener Suspended for Pretending to Have a “Bomb’ in His Backpack Shelton was planning on having friends sleep over after school last Friday, and Barclay, who identifies as gay, didn’t want to be left out of the fun....

Her pediatrician recommended dipping a damp washcloth in whiskey, wringing it out, and then letting her son chew on it. There was a discussion on using whiskey for teething in the Stay at Home Moms group, and a majority of the moms said they wouldn’t use whiskey for teething. “I did do it when my baby’s were teething....

It wasn’t always like that. There was a time when the tapes that would play in my head were positive, hopeful, gentle. But that seems like a lifetime ago. At what point down the road of my recovery did things change? I entered Overeaters Anonymous five years ago for a few reasons, but here is the most important one — there were times when I wanted to stop eating, but I couldn’t....

Yes. Really. Meanwhile, Star is the master of self-promotion — it would be easy for his team to fire off a tweet like this, knowing that it will boost sales, get press (HIIIIIII), and also be impossible to disprove. Clinton’s campaign has been adamant about not discussing makeup in the lead-up to the presidential election (which is fair), so it’s really difficult to check the veracity of Star’s statement....

Our lives had been one big roller-coaster with the punches coming one after another. At 22 years old, the weight and reality of the life I was living felt heavy. None of my personal friends had transferred to where I was in life, and I found myself searching, for what I wasn’t sure.

Moms especially spend a great deal of time stressing about that last one. According to Dr. Melissa King, pediatrician, director of urgent care, and Dr. Mom Squad blogger at Dayton Children’s Hospital, it’s for good reason. “Constipation can become chronic if it is not addressed,” she warns.
