Those ads feature on-screen text saying “Harris would raise taxes,” attributing those words to a CBS News article.

Now that I'm older, I'm learning to accept my body. But after 25 years of regular gym time, I'm finally OK with not looking like an Adonis. My primary health goal was to look good naked. Unfortunately, I learned the hard way that "look good naked" can translate to "voluntary starvation."

Having a colonoscopy served as the wake-up call she needed to make lifestyle changes to improve her health. I've struggled with constipation and bleeding with bowel movements since childhood. When I was 16, I decided to become vegan, but I was still eating a high-processed vegan diet, so the change didn't help my digestive issues. The bleeding with bowel movements continued on and off through adulthood but got continuously worse with age. After the colonoscopy and lifestyle changes, now at 25, I experience bleeding or pain with bowel movements maybe once a year.

New York CNN —Goldfish crackers are synonymous with hungry kids, but the company is betting that a sophisticated name change could expand that audience.

So, as a playful reminder, we went ahead and gave our iconic cheddar cracker a new, fun, grown-up name,” Danielle Brown, vice president of Goldfish, told CNN. But the Chilean Sea Bass snacks won’t appear on shelves: Bags featuring the branding are only being sold online beginning Wednesday and just for one week.

During an appearance this weekend on Andy Cohen’s messy and drama-prone Bravo talk show, “Watch What Happens Live,” Martha Stewart stoked the fires of a feud between herself and her fellow culinary mogul, Ina Garten. The pair has long presented a familiar dichotomy to the world of homemaking television, with Ms. Stewart, 83, as the blonde perfectionist and Ms. Garten, 76, as the friendly brunette. They became close friends in the 1990s, but have since had a falling out — and they have decidedly different views of what transpired. Here is what you need to know about the feud and whose side Snoop Dogg is taking. During a segment on Mr. Cohen’s show, he asked Ms. Stewart, who was on set with her frequent companion Snoop Dogg, if she had read Ms. Garten’s memoir, “Be Ready When the Luck Happens.” The memoir, which was published on Oct. 1, details Ms. Garten’s difficult childhood and her road to culinary fame.
