CNN —Hollywood star Sydney Sweeney has hit out at what she calls “fake” pronouncements on female empowerment in the entertainment industry. “This entire industry, all people say is ‘women empowering other women.’ None of it’s happening. “I’ve read that our entire lives, we were raised — and it’s a generational problem — to believe only one woman can be at the top. There’s one woman who can get the man. There’s one woman who can be, I don’t know, anything,” said Sweeney.

☆ What are endocrine-disrupting chemicals? Experts explain
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-29 | by ( Madeline Holcombe | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +9 min

The question is how worried should people be about these endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), such as phthalates, BPA or bisphenol A, and brominated flame retardants? Endocrine-disrupting chemicals are not produced by the human body but influence the way your hormones function, Bloom said. CNN reached out to the National Pest Management Association and the Personal Care Products Council for comment. Gradually replacing personal care products one at a time as you use up individual products is a great place to start, she said. “But personal care products is one thing where I think folks have a lot of autonomy and what they’re purchasing within reason.”

CNN —If Halloween had a fashion handbook, the party scene from the 2004 classic “Mean Girls” would take up a whole chapter. Paramount+/ImdbIn the two decades since “Mean Girls,” came out, the Halloween costume spectrum has filled with more choice — and a lot of creativity. Dressing up sexy for Halloween has been going on for decades, but more people also seem to be embracing alternative aesthetics for the season. Heidi Klum is one of the celebrities flipping the script on dressing for Halloween in recent years. The model is seen here in her 2022 Halloween costume - a worm.

At trial Thursday, defense lawyer Andrew Baldwin asked the clerk, Kathy Shank, if his client was trying to "assist" the investigation. And he said the information Allen provided to authorities days later was marked as cleared when it shouldn’t have been. Allen provided a similar account, according to former Delphi Police Chief Steve Mullin, who conducted the interview, though Allen said he’d arrived at the trail at noon and left at 1:30 p.m. When Mullin showed Allen a photo of the “bridge guy,” the former chief testified, Allen responded: “If the picture was taken with the girl’s camera, there was no way it could be him,” Mullin testified. In his testimony, Liggett said it was the discovery of that bullet along with witness accounts that prompted Allen’s arrest.

While a drain snake is incredibly helpful in clearing up your sink or bathtub drain, it’s important to prevent hair and other particles from building up in the first place. A drain snake is effective at cleaning out a bathtub drain, but they could potentially damage pipes if used improperly. Instead, use an enzyme-based liquid cleaner if you prefer that over a drain snake. If you have to unclog your bathtub drain but don’t have a drain snake, you can try using an enzyme-based cleaner, such as the Mighty Mint Drain Maintainer with Enzymes, to clear out the pipes.

CNN —Sydney Sweeney is tapping into the ring as she prepares for a new film role that will stand out as compared to her previous body of work. The actress and producer shared an update on her Instagram page on Wednesday, revealing how production is going on a still-untitled biopic about famed boxer Christy Martin. Following her 2012 retirement from boxing, Martin founded an organization called Christy’s Champs, which supports victims of domestic abuse. “Christy’s story shines a light on her incredible rise to the top while showing the struggles of fame behind the curtains,” Sweeney told Deadline in May about taking on the role. “I feel compelled to tell a story about a woman who faced so much adversity and didn’t allow it to defeat her.

Eugenicists used photographs and IQ tests to determine which people were "inferior," and sterilized those who didn't measure up — which usually turned out to be anyone who wasn't white and rich. Before he worked with photographs, Kosinski was interested in Facebook. It's just picking up on the way gay people present themselves on dating sites — which, not surprisingly, is often very different from the way straight people present themselves to potential partners. Kosinski thinks AI's ability to make the kind of personality judgments he studies will only get better. That is the future Kosinski fears — even as he continues to tinker with the very models that prove it will come to pass.
