Raphael Warnock during a Friday Democratic rally questioned Herschel Walker's fitness for office. "You actually have to know stuff to do this job," the senator said to applause from the audience. Warnock and Walker remain locked in one of the most competitive Senate races in the country. Warnock then zinged Walker for what he's repeatedly said is his opponent's lack of fitness to serve in the Senate. "You actually have to know stuff to do this job," the senator said to applause from the audience.

Some young women are changing the way they talk about food and their body image after seeing the discussion surrounding so-called almond moms on TikTok. The term “almond mom” began trending on TikTok last month after a 2014 clip of former “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” cast member Yolanda Hadid went viral. Koemptgen, 25, recently posted a video showing off the “almond mom” snacks at her mom’s house. Carla A. Pfeffer, an associate professor in the school of social work at Michigan State University, said some of the criticism of “almond moms” is rooted in misogyny and a culture that places the burden of childcare almost exclusively on women. She called “almond moms” a scapegoat of diet culture, but not the cause.

Rents are rising all over NYC so I knew my time was coming, but I didn't expect a $200 increase. I'm now sharing groceries with friends, doing zero-spend days, and going to mostly free events. I found four ways to switch up our spending to be able to afford our New York City rent increase. In an effort to cut back on mindless spending, I marked two days on my calendar, every month, that are my zero-dollar days.

When it comes to the world’s best spicy dishes, we have some of the world’s hottest peppers to thank, along with incredible layers of flavor and a long, spice-loving human history. Peppers – a headliner for heat – are rated on the Scoville Heat Units scale, which measures capsaicin and other active components of chile peppers. And it’s the perky red pepper of the same name that brings the spiciness to this complex, layered and delicious dish. “The peperoncino (red chile pepper) is what makes this sauce ‘angry’ (arrabbiata) or spicy,” Chris MacLean of Italy-based Open Tuesday Wines said via email. FomaA/Adobe StockThe fiery Ethiopian spice blend called berbere – aromatic with chile peppers, basil, cardamom, garlic and ginger – is instrumental to the flavor chorus that’s doro wat, Ethiopia’s much-loved spicy chicken stew.

I used to focus a lot more on pinch pennies, until I realized it was costing me time. I used to try to save money without much thought for the time invested. Having a dollar amount in mind helps me quickly assess whether an opportunity to earn or save money is worthwhile. If I'm not netting close to $1 per minute, I'm probably not interested. This approach also works in reverse to help me decide whether I should spend money to save time.

Aldi is the US's fastest-growing grocer for the third year running, the real-estate firm JLL said. Aldi almost always has the lowest prices for core products like bread, milk, and eggs, Monford said. Monford added that consumers "don't mind" that products aren't taken out of their boxes because they're shopping at Aldi for value. Campbell said the Aldi stores near her generally had just four or five aisles. Vadakkepatt said Aldi's stores have fewer employees and shorter hours than at other chains.

☆ Myanmar villagers say army beheaded high school teacher

The slain teacher, Saw Tun Moe, was a longtime educator who had participated in anti-military protests before taking charge of a high school founded by the country’s pro-democracy movement in his native Thit Nyi Naung village. Saw Tun Moe also taught mathematics at his village school and another nearby alternative school and was involved in the administration of Thit Nyi Naung, where he lived with his family. She said Saw Tun Moe was taken to Taung Myint village, almost a mile north of Thit Nyi Naung, and killed there the following day. A villager from Taung Myint village said he saw Saw Tun Moe’s body at about 11 a.m. Monday after the soldiers had left. I immediately knew that it was Teacher Moe.

ATLANTA — Democratic candidates in the two marquee Georgia races are blitzing the airwaves with television ads — and making two markedly different pitches to voters. Another features testimonials from GOP-leaning voters who say they’re supporting Warnock this fall. Abrams is relying heavily on mobilizing the base, aiming to inspire and register disaffected Georgians and turbocharge progressive turnout. “They are running two very different campaigns,” said an adviser to Kemp, who was granted anonymity to candidly assess Democratic strategy. “There are some voters — many voters — that are already pretty much fixed in their opinions.

Today, at 31, I have a thriving vending machine business that brings in more than $300,000 a year in sales.

New York CNN Business —Earlier this year, Mars shocked the internet when it unveiled new looks for its M&M’S characters. Now, M&M’S is making another, bigger change — this time, it’s adding a brand new character to the mix. And customers will be able to buy purple M&M’S online, an option that was already available. But when it comes to a regular bag of peanut M&M’S, purple fans are out of luck. “Now we know for certain that M&M’S is a cultural icon.”So when it came to the new purple character, Hwang said, M&M’S didn’t take the reaction to Green into account.

A former Navy engineer accused of trying to sell sensitive secrets about the Navy's nuclear-powered submarines to a foreign country by hiding them in a peanut butter sandwich changed his plea to guilty, federal court documents reveal. Jonathan Toebbe's wife, Diana Toebbe, also pleaded guilty after she was accused of helping him conduct surveillance to determine whether they were being followed. Jose Luis Magana / AP fileAt the time, the deal would have sent Jonathan Toebbe to prison for 12 years, while Diana Toebbe was to serve three years. The complaint described another instance where Jonathan Toebbe put the card in a chewing gum package. If the court doesn’t accept the latest plea agreement, Jonathan and Diana Toebbe would again have the right to withdraw their guilty pleas.

☆ How the airline industry plans to wean itself off one billion tons of carbon emissions

But Taylor has nothing on the airline industry, whose annual CO2 emission is pushing one billion metric tons. Airlines have completed test flights with sustainable aviation fuels, and the deals with sustainable aviation fuel producers have started to accumulate. American is the first airline globally to receive validation from the Science Based Targets initiative for its intermediate GHG emissions reduction targets and the only U.S. airline to report using more than 1 million gallons of sustainable aviation fuel in 2021. From ethanol, Gevo then processes further into a product that is chemically identical to standard aviation fuel. Judged against the standards of its own industry, American remains a leader in carbon reduction efforts.

One of two state agencies responsible for pushing out millions of dollars in federal infrastructure funds said it could be at least mid-to-late 2023 before any allocations roll out. Jackson Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba, a Democrat, has said the price tag to overhaul the city’s water infrastructure could balloon into the billions. This year, the Mississippi Legislature created a $450 million water infrastructure funding program with money the state received through the Congressional Covid relief package that passed in 2021. The Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality is administering the Clean Water State Revolving Fund program. Sam Mozee, director of the Mississippi Urban Research Center at Jackson State University, says his team is tracking what happens with funding going forward.

See's Candies President and CEO Pat Egan, speaks to Fox Business reporter Liz Claman about Warren Buffett's favorite See's product, Peanut Brittle, during the Berkshire Hathaway shareholders meeting, on Friday, April 29. Berkshire-owned See's Candies and Dairy Queen both had popular booths on the exhibit floor. "People need their candy," said See's Candies president and CEO Pat Egan. He added that higher labor and equipment costs are a challenge for Dairy Queen franchisees too. But Bader said Dairy Queen franchise operators have to "thread the needle" because the chain doesn't want to lose customers.
