I grew up with a dad who hated both the taste and smell of onions so we didn’t eat them very often. In high school, I discovered my love of onions, but the closest we could get to having them at home was dried French onion soup mix. So French onion soup it was. I made it as a soup to eat plain or used it to season foods or roasted vegetables. Sometimes I’d sneak fresh onions into the house (contraband onions… lol), but I definitely developed a love for the French onion soup mix during this time. Once…

The decision paves the way for Texas to implement SB4, which critics have called unconstitutional.
Screenshot YouTube : USA Today A recent survey discovered that almost half of all adult American children are receiving financial support from their parents. The financial support ranges from sending money and paying bills to many young to middle-aged adults still living at home or moving back in with their parents. For many of us, including myself, this seems like a bizarre construct. It was made very clear to me from about the time I started high school that the expectation was that I would no longer live with my parents once I graduated, let alone receive financial assistance…

It was a game that gave a glimpse into the future of two legendary NBA careers, but Bird and his team just fell short. Throughout the tournament though, Bird led the field in individual scoring with 27.2 and individual rebounding with 13.4. Out of all mid-major players though, Bird has to be up there as one of the best to come from that level.
It’s the wrong time to be right-brained. Students who majored in liberal arts, performing arts, and theology or religion can expect to earn the lowest salaries within five years of graduating from college, per a February 2024 New York Federal Reserve analysis. Alumni of each of those three majors are making a median annual income of $38,000 five years out—the lowest among the 75 majors the Fed studied. (Full disclosure: I’m a former English major who graduated college five years ago.) Some of the other lowest-paying majors include hospitality, anthropology, early childhood education, history, and fine arts—all of which…
Efforts to hammer out a temporary truce in Gaza have intensified after months of war that have left parts of the devastated territory facing imminent famine. A United Nations-backed assessment described the increasingly dire situation by noting that without a surge of aid, famine would hit the 300,000 people in Gaza’s war-battered north by May. Gaza’s 2.3 million people are trapped in the fighting, which again flared at the territory’s biggest hospital, al-Shifa in Gaza City, as an Israeli raid stretched into Tuesday. But positive signals have been reported from negotiations for a new truce that would include an exchange…

YouTube has updated its rulebook for the era of deepfakes. Starting today, anyone uploading video to the platform must disclose certain uses of synthetic media, including generative AI, so viewers know what they’re seeing isn’t real. YouTube says it applies to “realistic” altered media such as “making it appear as if a real building caught fire” or swapping “the face of one individual with another’s.” The new policy shows YouTube taking steps that could help curb the spread of AI-generated misinformation as the US presidential election approaches. It is also striking for what it permits: AI-generated animations aimed at kids…
