☆ Australian Real-Estate Auctions May Help American Homebuyers, Sellers
▼ + stars: | 2024-12-03 | by ( James Rodriguez | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +14 min

For roughly a decade after that first auction, he continued to broker deals the conventional way — for American sellers, Aussie-style auctions were a tough sell. Real-estate auctions are a time-honored tradition in Australia, dating back more than 200 years to its days as a British colony. But in times of healthy demand for homes, auctions can deliver benefits for sellers looking to ride out the frenzy. "I don't think the American consumer is ready for auctions yet," says Rob Hahn, the CEO of Decentre Labs, a company he started in 2022 to bring online real-estate auctions to the masses. The biggest beneficiaries, Duby tells me, may just be real-estate agents: When buyers and sellers are shuffled through this murky process, they'll look for a professional guide.

CNN —The White House has been spruced up and transformed into a gilded winter wonderland after more than 300 volunteers and residence staff spent the holiday weekend decking the halls for the final time under the Biden administration. The theme of this year’s decorations, the Office of the First Lady announced Monday, is a “season of peace and light,” drawing on the spirit of the holiday season – and the décor hewed closely to the theme, with thousands of twinkling lights and floating paper doves. May the promise of this ‘Season of Peace and Light’ guide your path forward.”The White House welcomes approximately 100,000 visitors each holiday season, touring the festive displays from the East Wing through the Library, the Vermeil Room, the China Room, the Diplomatic Reception Room and more. Last week, Jill Biden welcomed this year’s official tree from Cartner’s Christmas Tree Farm in North Carolina. Jill Biden will welcome National Guard families to be the first to tour the decorations later Monday.

Ulf Mauder/picture alliance/Getty ImagesMany observers fear the ruling Georgian Dream party will resort to anything to stay in power. This year, Georgian Dream pushed through a Kremlin-style “foreign agent” law, which critics say aims to shut down watchdogs who call the government to account. She described some of the statements made by Georgian Dream officials as a “copy-paste” of those from Stalin’s show trials. ‘Soviet mentality’A question puzzling many is why the formerly center-left Georgian Dream has made a sudden authoritarian pivot. Joining the EU would require cleaning up the country’s judiciary and giving up power if Georgian Dream is voted out on Saturday.

☆ 'Swicy' items take over restaurant menus as Gen Z seeks heat
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-22 | by ( Amelia Lucas | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

Nearly 10% of restaurant menus have "sweet and spicy" items, up 1.8% over the last 12 months, according to market research firm Datassential. Common menu items have paired fruity flavors and chili powder, or used sauces like hot honey and gochujang, a red chili paste that's a popular Korean condiment. Courtesy: StarbucksAlthough the menu items were largely only available for a limited time, culinary experts think that the swicy trend has staying power. Buzzy, trendy menu items are more important now to restaurants, which are leaning on both discounts and innovation to attract diners and reverse declining sales. Limited-time menu items are particularly attractive to Gen Z customers, a key demographic because they account for roughly a fifth of Americans.

Internal research accidentally revealed this week indicates TikTok knew its algorithm was harmful. Lawyers for children harmed by social media say the apps have long known they are hurting kids. According to NPR, TikTok's internal documents show officials at parent company ByteDance discussing internal studies that show the app can harm children. According to NPR, the unredacted internal documents show that TikTok touted its tools for limiting teens' screen time despite knowing from its own research that these features had "little impact." Matthew Bergman, a founding attorney of the Social Media Victims Law Center, which represents over 3,000 plaintiffs in cases of adolescents harmed by social media, told BI that the unsealed information is "certainly consistent with what we're seeing" across TikTok and other social media.

With a full harvest of colder-month produce in the grocery store, here is how you can fall in love with vegetables.

Caroline Chambers' Harissa Roasted Veggies demonstrates how you can add some flavor to your dishes once you have cooked your veggies right. Remove the roasted veggies from the oven and transfer to a cooling rack. Spread a nice spoonful of whipped feta over the bottom of a bowl or plate and top it with a pile of roasted veggies and a sprinkle of nuts.

"I always like to say that if you can make a salad, you can make fermented foods because they're on par in complexity," he said. Fortune Business Insights estimates the global probiotics market will be more than $94 billion by 2027, and a small jar of fermented foods from Whole Foods costs around $9. With the health benefits and value-for-money (not to mention the tastiness) that fermented foods provide, there's no reason not to give fermenting a go. SauerkrautTo make sauerkraut, you need cabbage, salt, and any seasonings of your choice, such as herbs and spices, Zilber said. When you add salt to cabbage, which contains lactic acid-producing bacteria, and lightly massage it, the juices start to release, creating a salty brine.
