Sweetgreen stock jumped 15% Friday, paring back a massive four-day slump, after regulators traced an explosive diarrhea outbreak back to Taco Bell restaurants – sparing the salad bowl chain’s reputation. The fast-casual salad chain – known for its so-called “slop bowls” – saw its stock soar as much as 21% Friday for its biggest intraday gain since August 2024. It plummeted nearly 26% from Monday through Thursday’s close as investors feared consumers would steer clear of fresh produce as thousands of people across several US states were sickened by cyclosporiasis.

Scientists long thought that when RNA kick-started life on Earth 4 billion years ago, it could form only small, simple structures. But new research shows that naturally occurring RNA molecules can also adopt large, sophisticated geometries, like filaments and cages. Now, scientists wonder whether the structures were present at life’s beginning.According to an idea known as the RNA world hypothesis, RNA-based life-forms preceded modern ones that use DNA and protein. RNA, a molecular cousin of DNA, still plays roles in modern cells but does not serve as the primary genetic material. By comparison, primordial species used RNA to store genetic…

Apparently, USC does not have any literature classes — or at least none on ancient Greece. Christopher Nolan’s “The Odyssey” hit theaters on Friday, and the USC football team tried to get in on the fun, posting “Our Odyssey begins August 29” on X, referring to their first game of the year. The issue with that is Homer’s 8th century epic poem “The Odyssey” follows Odysseus’ 10-year journey back to Greece after defeating the city of Troy in the Trojan War — the same city that serves as inspiration for USC’s nickname. The literary Trojans never had an odyssey. In fact, Troy was burned and destroyed during the Trojan war, according to Homer’s earlier poem “Iliad” — with very limited survivors. College football fans reacted to the slip up about how you’d expect. “Wow, this is absolutely fantastic work,” one fan said sarcastically. “Did you hire a Notre Dame or UCLA grad to run the twitter account or something?” USC famously has a rivalry with both programs mentioned. The school was first given its nickname, the Trojans, in 1912 when a sports editor suggested it because of the fighting spirit the school’s athletes had when playing bigger, more equipped schools.…
Californians who are divorced, widowed or single for any reason may be charged higher car insurance prices after a shocking court ruling. A California Court of Appeal upheld a state regulation Thursday that’s been in place since 1996 that permits auto insurers to use marital status as a factor in determining premiums for its “substantial relationship to loss.” Some insurers, such as Farmers Insurance, have relied on historical actuarial data that shows that married drivers tend to file fewer and less severe claims than unmarried ones. A 2025 analysis by the Consumer Federation of America, for instance, showed GEICO charged…
