NicolasMcComber/Getty ImagesNorweigan Cruise Line is credited with creating this category of onboard eating, which it calls freestyle dining. I wished we could've just had our desired mealtime locked in, but NCL doesn't do traditional dining. Puzzled, we explained that we didn't need one because we were doing flexible dining. I missed sharing tables with strangers, the standard with traditional dining (unless you have a large group).

But figuring out whether a date uses dark psychology tricks is more nuanced than scanning their potential red flags. Instead of trying to suss out if your charming date is a dark empath, Wright said there is a healthier — and much simpler — way to tell if a romantic partner is shady. The first is to actively learn what a healthy relationship looks like, even if it seems contrary to what feels natural. The other is to engage in somatic exercises and mindfulness so that you feel more connected to your body physically.

☆ Shohei Ohtani’s interpreter allegedly stole $16 million from his bank account. Here’s how to protect your own
▼ + stars: | 2024-04-13 | by ( Brian Fung | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +6 min

The interpreter, a longtime friend of Ohtani’s named Ippei Mizuhara, allegedly stole vast sums of money from a bank account established in Ohtani’s name. Mizuhara had unique access to Ohtani’s bank account, authorities say, because it was he who helped Ohtani create it in the first place in 2018 — which put him in a privileged position to take advantage of his client. Password managers help you generate and keep track of complex, secure passwords that aren’t easily guessed or cracked. And many password managers are also transitioning to support passkeys. This is another area where password managers can come in handy.

A report by strategy consultant firm Tyton Partners, sponsored by plagiarism detection platform Turnitin, found half of college students used AI tools in Fall 2023. The practice of using AI for writing feedback or grading assignments also raises ethical considerations. But teachers should then grade students’ work themselves when looking for novelty, creativity and depth of insight. “Using feedback that is not truly from me seems like it is shortchanging that relationship a little,” she said. She also sees uploading a student’s work to ChatGPT as a “huge ethical consideration” and potentially a breach of their intellectual property.

☆ Do you need to rinse your chicken before you cook it?

CNN —Despite what your elders may have told you, you don’t need to rinse raw chicken or any other poultry or meat before prepping and cooking it. When rinsing chicken, bacteria such as salmonella can be transferred via the water to your kitchen surfaces, leading to potential cross contamination of other ingredients. Bacteria was found in the sinks of 60% of cooks who rinsed raw chicken as part of a 2019 USDA study. “Use paper towels, even more than you think you need,” Matijevich said, and pat the chicken dry or let the paper towels soak up the excess liquid. If they are used to clean up raw poultry juice, they should also go in the dishwasher on the sanitize cycle,” Schaffner said.

This extra review has enormous potential to improve the detection of suspicious breast masses and lead to earlier diagnoses of breast cancer. With RadNet’s AI tool, “it’s as if all patients get the benefit of our very top performer.”But is the tech analysis worth the extra cost to patients? The health system has developed AI models and is testing the technology with mammograms but doesn’t yet offer it to patients, she said.
