Reader's Digest|June 2022LETTERSWhere Have All the Nurses Gone?I was made to be a nurse and can’t see myself in any other profession. Your article about the nursing shortage (March/April) came just as the Federal Trade Commission began investigating travel nursing rates. Capping their pay can only negatively affect all nurses. Health-care executives make millions, and nurses deserve higher wages instead of pay scrutiny. That would certainly help the shortage.—NICOLE VIDAK Swanton, OhioPandemic Silver LiningsThese quarantine silver linings (March/April) were a welcome relief. I could see the smiles of the senior couple who found “A New Chance at Love” during the pandemic. I felt energized to get outside by the bicycling family in “The Road Less Pedaled.” I felt the grandmother’s joy in leading virtual “Grandmagarten” for her grandson. It gave me hope…3 min
Reader's Digest|June 2022Dads on DutyON THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 2021, just weeks into the school year, two groups of boys brawled across the courtyard at Southwood High School in Shreveport, Louisiana. The following day, two groups of girls picked up where the boys had left off. In a mere two days, 23 students were in police custody. One was charged with battery for allegedly hitting an assistant principal. Another student was charged with threatening a resource officer and a staff member.When a school administrator told her former classmate Craig Lee, a business owner and community activist, that gang tensions were rising, Lee wanted to do something. He contacted Michael La’Fitte, a fellow activist, who had an 11th-grade daughter at Southwood. That Sunday, the two held an emergency meeting with parents and the principal. By the…3 min
Reader's Digest|June 2022A Goose ChaseGertie, our white Chinese goose, with her companion, Vinnie, a brown Toulouse goose, has laid a clutch of eggs every spring for the past nine years. Gertie faithfully sits on them every spring, but, sadly, the eggs never hatch.Last spring, Gertie injured her leg and was very upset that she couldn’t roam free while she healed—her eggs needed her! My teenage son went down to the shore-line of the lake behind our house and carefully scooped up the eggs in her nest and brought them to her.Weeks later, a miracle happened: An egg hatched! But the gosling peeking out from under Gertie’s wing didn’t resemble either of its parents. It was a Canada gosling like the ones that live on the lake.Our guess is that a Canada goose laid eggs…1 min
Reader's Digest|June 2022Picking PeppersPeppers, especially chilis, are at the center of dishes around the world, from China and India to Ghana and Uganda to Spain and Italy and, of course, to Mexico, where they originated. In fact, all peppers emanated from the Americas, but courtesy of Columbus’s travels between the New World and Spain in the 1500s—and then Portuguese explorers’ bringing them from Brazil to India—they spread far and wide. Today, these colorful, flavorful vegetables are so deeply incorporated into global cuisines that it’s hard to imagine what these chili-centric food traditions might have been like pre-pepper.Peppers range from sweet to spicy to somewhere beguilingly in between. The common bell pepper, a lunch box favorite with not even a hint of heat, comes in yellow, red, orange, and purple varieties, as well as…2 min
Reader's Digest|June 2022All in a Day’sWORKI began to have doubts about how math is taught in this country when a young cook at my pizzeria said he had a problem. “A customer called, asking for a pie that’s a third cheese, a third pepperoni, and a third combination, ” he said.“So, what’s the problem?” I asked him. “I don’t know what to put on the fourth third.”—ROBERT KEARNEYRancho Cordova, CaliforniaI pulled over a 17-year-old for speeding. When I told him I’d clocked him at 101 mph, he insisted he was doing only 85. “Why do you think that?” I asked.He yelled back, “My speedometer only goes to 85, and I had the gas pedal pushed all the way to the floor!”SOURCE: POLICEONE.COM“Health-care workers are really stressed these days, ” I observed as my nurse in…3 min
Reader's Digest|June 2022Calling All Blood Donors!BLOOD DRIVES at schools and colleges-which make up a large portion of the American Red Cross’s collection sites-have dropped 62 percent. “The need is far greater than the supply, ” says Tiffany Taylor, a spokesperson for the American Red Cross, which supplies about 40 percent of the nation’s blood. “There’s no replacement for blood.”And the problem is likely to get worse. “As we go into the summer, we see a decline in donations, ” she says. “Schools are out, people are traveling, the weather is nice-so donating blood drops to the bottom of the list.”That’s why RD is putting out a call for all eligible donors to roll up their sleeves and help replenish the blood banks. Your donation could make a huge difference, especially right now.Here are a few…2 min

Reader's Digest|June 2022FOR SALE My Catalog of Dad JokesFROM MCSWEENEYS.NETI STILL REMEMBER THE first time I told my then-six-year-old son, Lev, that a clam makes calls with its “shell phone.” The laugh of recognition when he first got the joke was a moment I won’t ever forget. When I told it a second time in front of his friends Henry and Amir, I could see how proud he was that I had made his friends laugh. Excuse the bragging, but I was the cool dad.By Lev’s ninth birthday party, things had begun to change. After the seventh or eighth time I asked him “What do you call someone with no body and no nose?” he dismissively rolled his eyes. “I get it, Dad...”“... Nobody knows!”“Stop it, Dad!”I immediately shifted gears into food puns, reminding him and his friends…3 min

I’m also a mom to two boys who dirt bike. At their first race, my oldest went first and managed to catch a little air. My youngest surprised me even more.

Reader's Digest|June 2022The RDLISTFILMTop Gun: MaverickStarring Tom CruiseTOM CRUISE IS BACK to take your breath away in the sequel to the 1986 classic Top Gun. Hotshot Navy pilot Pete “Maverick” Mitchell is now captain at the Top Gun flight school, teaching a new generation of aviators how to wing it—but he can definitely still push Mach 9 in the sky, as his students learn. Trainees include Lt. Bradley “Rooster” Bradshaw (Miles Teller), the skeptical son of the first film’s ill-fated “Goose” character: “My dad believed in you. I’m not going to make the same mistake, ” he says. Although Maverick’s former love, Charlie (Kelly McGillis), is MIA, onetime rival Tom “Iceman” Kazansky (Val Kilmer) returns. And Cruise, a licensed pilot, actually flies a jet. Is it too much to ask for a new…3 min

Reader's Digest|June 2022Hey, That’s Me!MY JANDRISEVITS KNOWS the value of a good doll. “Dolls have a power we don’t completely understand, ” she told The Today Show. It’s a conclusion she came to while working as a pediatric oncology social worker using dolls to help her young clients adapt to their changing medical situations. Many of the kids saw themselves in those dolls. But for the kids missing a limb or who had lost their hair, there were none they could relate to.So, seven years ago, when a friend revealed that her child was transgender, Jandrisevits, now 49, knew what might help the youth through this potentially challenging period. “It’s hard to tell a kid, ‘You are perfect the way you are, ’ and to build self-esteem that way, but never offer them anything…2 min

Reader's Digest|June 2022HOW TO Stop Losing Your StuffFROM THE WASHINGTON POSTSASHA BRADFORD DOESN’T have time to lose things. She’s a working mom with lots of hobbies, and when she misplaces her keys or leaves her purse at a restaurant, she becomes frustrated and irritable.“It impacts me greatly, ” says Bradford, 35, a Washington, DC-based federal contracting officer. Bradford has attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), which, she says, makes her “prone to put things places and not remember where I put them.”Her angst is probably familiar to anyone whose phone is MIA a dozen times a day, or who can’t find the TV remote until ten minutes after a favorite show has begun. Such lapses might be accompanied by a nagging fear: Is something wrong with me?Probably not, experts agree. “It’s a common occurrence and certainly annoying, ” says Daniel…6 min

Reader's Digest|June 2022An Anti-Migraine DietWELLNESS FROM THEHEALTHY.COMCHRISTY NIELSON, 49, remembers getting her first migraine when she was in third grade. She curled up in the back of the school bus with excruciating pain, not able to find the words to tell her parents what it felt like when she got home. When she hit puberty, the migraines got worse. By her early 20s, she assumed that severe headaches were an unavoidable part of her life. It wasn’t until years later that she finally found a cure... in her kitchen.Migraine is a neurological disease that has a number of symptoms, including moderate-to-severe throbbing head pain that can stick around for anywhere from four hours to several days. According to the American Migraine Foundation, nearly 40 million people in the United States experience these headaches. While…5 min
Reader's Digest|June 2022News FROM THE WORLD OF MEDICINEA NEW WAY TO PROTECT YOUR EARSExposure to loud noise, such as an ear-splitting concert, is a common cause of hearing loss. But now we may have a way to prevent it. A University of Southern California study found that exposure to 100 decibels of sound or more—equivalent to a power lawn mower or motorcycle—causes inner ear fluid buildup and nerve cell damage. However, when researchers applied a salt-based solution inside affected ears one hour after noise exposure, the solution drew out the excess fluid, reducing the damage. After more testing, people exposed to loud noises could be scanned for possible fluid buildup and treated with a prescription that might end up saving their hearing.EXERCISE WON’T RUIN YOUR KNEESIt’s commonly thought that your knees will eventually pay the price if…2 min

His wife had sent him out to get something called “meringue sugar, ” with strict instructions to buy no other kind, and he didn’t know what the stuff was and couldn’t find it, and nobody in any of the shops he’d so far wandered into had any idea either.He didn’t say this to me. He said it to the cheese shop person. She too appeared to be without a clue as to the meringue sugar mystery. None of this was any concern of mine. I could have—should…11 min

Reader's Digest|June 2022The Fairy’s GodmotherShould you find yourself wandering in Alexandria, Virginia, be sure to cast your gaze down. You just might spot a two-inch door at the base of a stone wall, or a vivid teal portal on a tree in front of a frozen custard shop. These “fairy doors” are the creation of Kate Young, 30, for the express use of fairies. Young, got the idea a few years ago after becoming enchanted by a small door in a tree with a stone path and a bridge. So she erected her own tiny structures, about 100 of them in total. One favorite, a tiny post office installed against a dogwood, collected around 100 letters from children asking, “Who are you?” “What are you?” “I am a fairy real estate agent, ” she…1 min

Reader's Digest|June 2022National Parks: Made for You and Me1 WHILE THE TERM “national park” conjures images of the American West, there are national park units in every U.S. state and territory. Together they welcome about 300 million visitors each year and span some 85 million acres, almost 55 million of which are in Alaska.2 THERE ARE more than 400 sites in the National Park System, though that includes far more than what we traditionally think of as “parks, ” such as parkways and rivers. Strictly speaking there are 63 national parks (California has the most, with nine), but there are also national historic parks, national military parks, and other designations A few are thoroughly unique. Among them: the White House.3 THE NATIONAL Park Service (NPS) oversees all 400+ of these sites, so Alfred Hitchco*ck in 1958 needed the…4 min

Reader's Digest|June 2022THE FUTURE OF TECHEvery day, it seems, a new techy term pops up, leaving us non-techies asking questions in what sounds like a foreign language. “What is an NFT?” for example. And “Where, exactly, is the metaverse?” If you’re confused, you’re not alone.While it might feel as if technology is speeding up, it follows a predictable formula called Moore’s Law, which has correctly predicted the pace of human advancements in technology for nearly six decades. Moore’s Law suggests that the number of transistors on a computer chip will double about every two years. This is a reliable indicator of how much and how quickly technology will change.And while Moore’s Law has held true for all this time, it hasn’t stopped other key trends in tech from accelerating far faster than computer chips can…9 min
Reader's Digest|June 2022“I NEVER THOUGHT OF IT THAT WAY”From the book I NEVER THOUGHT OF IT THAT WAYIF THERE’S ONE thing most people can agree on, it’s that the way we treat and talk to people with opposing views is broken. We can’t stomach the ideas from across the political divide, let alone the people who hold them. This goes for other polarizing topics, too, not just politics. In one 2021 poll, most Americans thought the biggest threat to our country’s way of life was “other people in America.” By June 2021, U.S. voters rated “division in the country” as the number one issue facing them personally.Whether you consider yourself conservative, liberal, something in between, or something off that spectrum altogether, I bet you’ve wondered, as I have, how long we can hold it together while our differences…13 min

One 2020 trial, for instance, found that patients with eczema showed more improvement when their hand creams contained colloidal oatmeal. (Colloidal means the grains are pulverized into dust and mixed thoroughly into the lotion or solution.)“Oatmeal has anti-itch, anti-inflammatory, soothing properties, and it improves the skin’s direct barrier, ” says Sandy Skotnicki, MD, a dermatologist in the department of medicine at the University of Toronto. This is thanks to the grain’s natural antioxidants, proteins, and other special compounds.
