Life expectancy in the US shot up at a rate of about three years per decade in the last century: from roughly age 47 in 1900 to age 77 in 2000. As more people in wealthy countries make it to old age, human life expectancy gains are nearing a plateau. The study tracks trends in their death rates and life expectancy from 1990 to 2019, before the COVID-19 pandemic started. Spending just 3% of your day exercising can mean you stay healthier for longer, an expert in healthy aging said.

Vice President Kamala Harris hit back at Arkansas GOP Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders' comments that Harris "doesn’t have anything keeping her humble" because she doesn't have children. "I don't think she understands that there are a whole lot of women out here who, one, are not aspiring to be humble," Harris told "Call Her Daddy" podcast host Alex Cooper. In response, Harris blasted Trump, blaming him for nominating three Supreme Court Justice who voted to overrule Roe v. Wade. Harris asked, referring to Trump's comments about protecting women.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who suggested at a town hall with former President Donald Trump last month that the vice president doesn’t have anything to keep her humble because she doesn’t have biological children. “I feel sorry for her, and I’m going to tell you why,” Harris said on an episode of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast released Sunday. “Because I don’t think she understands that there are a whole lot of women out here who one, are not aspiring to be humble. Family comes in many forms, and I think that increasingly, all of us understand that this is not the 1950s anymore,” Harris said. Harris added: “This is the same guy that said women should be punished for having abortions.

To kick off the week, Harris' interview with Alex Cooper on the popular "Call Her Daddy" podcast is expected to air Sunday. The Trump campaign declined to do a "60 Minutes" interview after initially accepting the invitation, according to the network. On Tuesday, the Harris campaign will fly the vice president to New York for appearances on ABC's "The View," CBS' "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" and "The Howard Stern Show." Along with various appearances on Fox News, more friendly territory for the Republican nominee, Trump has interviewed on podcasts that are popular with young men like "This Past Weekend w/Theo Von" and the "Lex Fridman Podcast." Over the course of Harris' fast-tracked campaign, the vice president has sat for interviews with CNN, a panel from the National Association of Black Journalists, MSNBC and some local outlets.

You may have noticed how desperate some politicians' fundraising appeals can sound. AdvertisementIf you're a person who's at all involved in politics, from the most seasoned operative to the casual observer, you're undoubtedly familiar — and perhaps a bit annoyed — with the desperate fundraising appeals uttered in the voice of politicians. AdvertisementWe weren’t quite able to reach our most recent re-election campaign fundraising goal. If the candidate is inspiring to voters on their own, there's less need to scare people into sending them money. "There's an assumption that the more desperate the appeals become the better the fundraising works," Pennington said.

I tried apple pies from Arby's, KFC, McDonald's, Panda Express, and Popeyes. But come fall, I ditch my go-to chicken potpies for the season's staple: apple pie. It found that apple pie consistently ranked in the top five most popular pies across the country. To find which fast-food chain serves the best apple pie, I tried pies from Arby's, KFC, McDonald's, Panda Express, and Popeyes and ranked them from my least favorite to my favorite based on flavor, texture, and value. Here's how every fast-food apple pie ranked.

It's important to do your homework before taking them, the director of the Office of Dietary Supplements said. It's no surprise, then, that the US dietary supplement market had an estimated value of $45.1 billion in 2023, according to Statista. One 2023 study published in JAMA Network Open found that 89% of the 57 dietary supplements tested didn't accurately list their ingredients. But there are certainly aspects of certain dietary supplements that may be considered unsafe," he said.

“It also makes you a lot nicer to be around.”Cutting out social media and screen time altogether may be too much to ask. And because social media algorithms are designed to hold your attention, negative content that grabs you will keep getting pushed to you, Armitage said. On the other hand, if you are getting sucked into email, social media or news, you are getting rolling before you’ve had a chance to plan your day mentally, Rutledge said. By starting the day without social media, you might also get a boost from increasing your sense of agency over the kinds of content you are consuming — rather than letting social media pull you into a mindless scroll, Rutledge said. “By doing these things you are taking control of your phone rather than your phone controlling you,” Armitage added.

Carroll had little interest in cruises, but a writing retreat aboard the Queen Mary 2 intrigued her. The solo travel part wasn't out of character — I'd spent most of my 20s backpacking alone. It was this writing retreat — with its promise of expert instruction plus time to focus — that enticed me to get on board a ship. I was hoping that a writing retreat would reignite that spark.

Australian TV host Fiona MacDonald announced her own death at the age of 67 in a posthumous social media post on Thursday. The beloved host, who worked on the children's program “Wombat” and gameshow “It’s a Knockout,” died three years after being diagnosed with a motor neuron disease. There are various motor neuron diseases; the term refers to progressive neurological disorders that destroy motor neurons and cells. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and progressive bulbar palsy (PBP) are both examples of motor neuron diseases. She said the diagnosis came as a “shock” as MacDonald had no family history of motor neuron diseases.

CNN —Nearly two months ago, CNN reached out to Melania Trump’s book publisher to request an interview with the former first lady ahead of her upcoming memoir. After several exchanges about a possible interview, the publisher sent an unusual demand last week: an interview would cost $250,000. Melania Trump’s spokesperson declined comment. Spokespeople for ABC, NBC and CBS declined to comment on whether they received a similar request for payment from Trump’s publisher. But in this case, the Trump campaign hasn’t been involved in Melania Trump’s book rollout.

I spent some time alone after things ended, but by the end of 2012, I was ready to re-embrace online dating. Within a few years, my fellow millennials and I were reportedly spending 10 hours a week on dating apps. "Dating apps are designed to be a miserable experience," Stephanie Rodgers, the founder of the forthcoming dating app Verb, said. Increasingly, it feels like dating apps make things more monotonous and cumbersome to incentivize us to pay for upgrades. And while dating apps' cost in terms of harassment, threats, and violence is paid disproportionately by women, its financial cost is disproportionately paid by men.

“Democrats always want to be talking about health care because they have a political advantage over Republicans on the issue with voters,” Larry Levitt, executive vice president for health policy at KFF, a nonpartisan health policy research organization, told CNN. “Americans care about health care. They want to know where the candidates stand when it comes to health care,” Sarah Fioroni, a senior researcher at Gallup, told CNN. Early in the campaign, Trump revived talk of wanting to repeal the Affordable Care Act and replace it with something better. The Trump campaign accused the Harris campaign of “lying because they are losing,” Karoline Leavitt, the campaign’s national press secretary, said in an email to CNN.

That said, everyone seemed to agree that the days of logo-forward purchases and other conspicuous signs of wealth are over — even on Wall Street. The industry's movers and shakers are still into name brands but are leaning into those that exude "quiet luxury." And where there are celebrities and influencers, there tend to be Wall Street dealmakers. It's not surprising that high-earners on Wall Street would have second homes (or, in many cases, multiple). The HamptonsThe beach towns of the Hamptons have long been a Wall Street favorite thanks to their proximity to Manhattan.
