▼ + stars: | 2024-07-31 | by ( Renée Onque | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Biles is now the most decorated U.S. Olympic gymnast in history with eight Olympic medals. And she says it wouldn't have been possible without consistent mental health support. Three years ago, she withdrew from the team gymnastics competition at the postponed 2020 Tokyo Olympics citing mental health concerns. "I have to focus on my mental health," Biles said after pulling out of the Olympics in 2021. On Tuesday, the Team USA gymnastics team won gold in the Olympic women’s team final, and Biles made history as a result.

To get to the bottom of what's fact and what's fiction, we asked registered dietitians Maddie Pasquariello and Roxana Ehsani about the coffee myths they come across the most. But despite its popularity, there are plenty of myths about coffee and it can be difficult to know what's true. Two-thirds of Americans drink coffee every single day, according to data collected by the National Coffee Association in 2022. "I would only recommend that people don't forget to drink a glass of water first or along with [coffee] too," Ehsani says. Myth #3: "More than 2 cups of coffee a day is too much"Deepak Chopra told CNBC Make It he drinks two to three cups of coffee before noon.

▼ + stars: | 2024-07-26 | by ( Debra Kamin | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

An actress and comedian says she was drugged and sexually assaulted by Oren Alexander, a top luxury real estate agent who is facing a string of accusations that he and his two of his brothers sexually assaulted women — allegations that had been whispered throughout the high-end real estate industry for years. Renee Willett, 31, filed a federal lawsuit on Friday accusing Mr. Alexander, 37, of attacking her in his apartment nearly nine years ago. Two earlier lawsuits filed this year name Mr. Alexander and his twin brother, Alon, who does not work in real estate but often socializes with him. A third suit filed in June names Oren, Alon and their older brother Tal Alexander, 38, who is Oren’s longtime partner in real estate sales. Isabelle Kirshner, a lawyer for Oren Alexander, said she had no comment on the new allegation at this time.

CNN —Lady Gaga was in top form in Paris, France on Friday, when she performed on the banks of the River Seine as part of the grand kickoff to the opening ceremony for the Olympic Summer Games. After proclaiming, “Bonsoir et bienvenue à Paris,” which translates to, “Good evening and welcome to Paris,” Gaga danced and traipsed down a staircase on the riverbank surrounded by her dancers with feathers. At one point, Gaga sat at the piano waiting for an interlude before continuing her performance on the stage. Gaga join performers Celine Dion and Aya Nakamura in performing at the ceremony. It’s the first time the opening ceremony has not been held in a stadium, and it’s truly putting much of Paris on display.

In 1994, at just 15 years old, Usher Raymond IV, more commonly known as Usher, rose to fame after releasing his first album. Earning more money than most teens, Raymond could have easily splurged on expensive things like clothes and jewelry, but he says he chose a different path. "Surprisingly, I was never frivolous with my spending," Raymond tells CNBC Make It. "It wasn't until my latter years that I decided to buy cars and jewelry and things that would obviously depreciate." His hope is that his children will follow in his footsteps and do the same.

☆ Young people today are stressed, depressed—and changing the fundamental pattern of happiness, new research shows
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-23 | by ( Renée Onque | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

Research shows that young adults are the unhappiest age groupBlanchflower's most recent working paper, co-authored with Alex Bryson and Xiaowei Xu, shows a change in the pattern, with happiness starting off low in young adulthood and increasing with age. Alongside other researchers, Blanchflower analyzed data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. But Wimsatt Childs agrees with Blanchflower that social media likely plays a role in this new pattern of unhappiness. "What social media has done in a lot of ways is it has amplified concerns that were already well underway," she says. Social media — apps like Snapchat, Instagram and TikTok — floods people with information and can lead to comparison among peers on a larger scale, she adds.

CNN —The ascension of Vice President Kamala Harris to become the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee in less than 48 hours is an unprecedented occurrence in American politics. Only four people in US history have won a presidential election as a sitting vice president. Back then, the vice president was the runner-up in the presidential election. In 1861, Vice President John Breckinridge oversaw the counting of electoral votes that made Abraham Lincoln president, at a time when Southern states seceded from the country rather than accept Lincoln’s 1860 victory. Vice President Richard Nixon narrowly lost the 1960 election to John F. Kennedy and oversaw the counting of electoral votes in 1961.

California gets 54 electoral votes (it has two senators and 52 congressional districts). The winner is the candidate who gets 270 or more electoral votes. If no candidate gets to 270 electoral votes, the House of Representatives picks the winner from among the candidates who got electoral votes. The campaigns will focus more attention on the fewer than one-third of all electoral votes they consider to be up for grabs or winnable by either party. Two states, Maine and Nebraska, apportion some of their electoral votes by congressional district rather than giving all of them to the state winner.

Supplements, superfoods, and health hacks are advertised constantly to those looking to live a long, healthy life, but focusing on just those quick solutions is not very effective, according to leading longevity researcher Dan Buettner. On a recent episode of "Ten Percent Happier with Dan Harris," Buettner, who popularized the world's Blue Zones, spoke about how attempting to achieve good health through extreme measures can be counterproductive. In "five corners of the world," blue zones are living on average eight years longer than Americans, Buettner said. Yet, "none of them are tracking their steps, or taking superfoods, or running down to Costa Rica for stem cells." There's something that people in Blue Zones do that most Americans don't, and probably should, he noted.
