Right now, at preschool programs around the country, teachers are tapping infinite reserves of patience to keep the peace among children at various stages of development and need. They’re also providing meals, wiping noses and delivering a curriculum in math and reading that will get the kids ready for school.

A working parent like me would say these services are priceless. But according to a new study from the University of California, Berkeley, the economy values them between $8.63 and $20.99 per hour.

A batch of lyrics that Bob Dylan wrote in the late 1960s were given by Dylan to producer T-Bone Burnett, who came up with the idea to have some contemporary musicians set the words to music. Burnett gathered Elvis Costello, Marcus Mumford, My Morning Jacket’s Jim James, Taylor Goldsmith from Dawes, and Rhiannon Giddens from the Carolina Chocolate Drops, and they recorded an album over the course of two weeks in L.A. It’s called Lost on the River: The New Basement Tapes, and Showtime will air a documentary about the making of the album on November 21.

Fresh Air rock critic Ken Tucker has a review.

Honestly, I'll take the ER over the ICU any day. Less chance of me accidentally killing a patient, and there's always a doctor around to yell at me.

Man’s drastic weight loss reveals an issue you’d never see in a magazine 

Infomercials have created a multibillion-dollar industry by selling people on the idea that the “perfect body” is only a pill or machine away. But what happens when you stick to an exercise regime, keep food diaries and change your entire lifestyle to meet your body goals? 

One guy found out the hard way that real life doesn’t look like a TV before-and-after photo.

Watch as men try to explain why they catcall 

"If a girl comes out, in public, in tight leggings … I’m saying something."

Here we go again. In a new video created by Gothamist and production company Marabigo, men explain why they catcall. They also offer women helpful “advice” on how not to be harassed. For example, “Try not to wear tight clothes.”

Revolutionary.
