  • The holy grill: A guilt-free superfood that tastes like bacon

    (CNN) — Food lovers might no longer have to choose between tastiness and healthiness. As will be familiar to anyone miserably chewing through leaf after leaf of kale in a beleaguered attempt to shed a few pounds, it’s hard to banish thoughts of cheeseburgers, pizza or — many a dieters’ Achilles’ heel — bacon. But some of those cravings, at least, might soon be banished, if researchers at Oregon State University are correct. Chris Langdon, a researcher at OSU’s Hatfield […]

  • 7 things Americans should know about travel to Cuba

    By Patrick Oppmann CNN HAVANA (CNN) — With the United States and Cuba set to restore full diplomatic relations next week, many Americans rightfully wonder what’s really changed as a result of America’s new policy with the communist-run island nation. Since we’re talking about Cuba, don’t expect everything to be perfectly clear: 1. How can Americans legally visit Cuba? U.S. citizens need approval from the Treasury Department to spend money in Cuba. Since the end of the Eisenhower administration, most […]

    (CNN) — The summer of 2001, Kim Manlove was hopeful that his 16-year-old son David had turned a corner in his recovery from drugs and alcohol. David had been in treatment for six months at a center near their Indiana home, where he attended therapy sessions, openly acknowledged he had a problem and went to 12-step meetings. By June, he had found a job and was trying to win back his parents’ trust. But the urge to get high was […]

  • Facebook is taking on Amazon with shopping pages

    NEW YORK (CNNMoney) — Facebook is testing a way to become a virtual shopping mall. To do this, the social network will help businesses transform their Facebook pages into e-commerce sites. A retailer, for example, could list and sell products directly through its Facebook page. People who visit the page would be able to browse, shop and pay without ever leaving Facebook’s mobile app, or Facebook.com. (This story was first reported by BuzzFeed.) This idea is appealing for companies who […]

  • Happy 60th, Disneyland! You’ve come a long way from Day One

    (CNN) – For all the attention paid to shiny new features at Florida’s Magic Kingdom, Tokyo Disneyland or the under-construction Shanghai Disneyland, there’s only one original Disney park.   On July 17, 1955, Walt Disney welcomed thousands of invited guests and gate crashers to preview the first Disneyland on a 160-acre former orange grove in Anaheim, California. On that invite-only opening day, crowds overwhelmed the park, which cost $17 million to build but was not quite ready for prime time. […]

  • Would you vacation on haunted Serpent Island?

    SENEGAL (CNN) — The name — Serpent Island — would be enough to deter even the most adventurous tourists. And while few snakes actually reside on the Senegalese island (which was named for an 18th-century French sergeant by the name of Sarpant), locals give it a wide berth. The land, you see, is rumored to be haunted. “The spirit doesn’t let anyone build here,” says Matta Diallo, a local Lebou guide. He points to the ruins of an 18th-century house […]
