Your neighbors might be paying less for the same groceries you buy every week. In the age of “surveillance pricing,” the cost of an item is being determined by your personal information. Companies are using your personal data to figure out how much they believe you are willing to pay. Now everyone from lawmakers to online influencers are starting to fight back against what many see as algorithmically driven price gouging. Surveillance pricing is what happens when companies track who you are, where you live, the devices you use and your purchase history, then quietly adjust online prices based on…

Selling Sunset‘s Mary Bonnet made a rare comment on the difficult — and immense — backlash after her onscreen feud with Chelsea Lazkani. “It had been very, very bad. My whole world was turned upside down,” Mary, 45, exclusively told Us Weekly while discussing her current work with animal advocacy. Mary recalled “fighting production the entire season” of how her tension with Chelsea, 33, would be portrayed, adding, “I could see what they were doing. I was like, ‘Don’t you dare allow that narrative to start or even creep in there.’ Because that is the furthest thing from the truth…

It must feel impossible.  Just a few weeks before South Africa was set to arrive in the United States for its first World Cup appearance in 16 years, Aqueelah Adendorf — the partner of Jayden Adams — was sharing her excitement with the world, unaware that it would come crashing down when the 25-year-old midfielder died of an undetermined cause. The couple reportedly shared a 5-year-old daughter. “Watching you achieve something this big has filled my heart with so much pride,” Adendorf wrote in an Instagram post. “From the hard work, sacrifices, early mornings, disappointments, and moments nobody saw —…

A Queens pol is pushing new legislation to ban giving away live fish as novelty prizes at NYC-based fairs, carnivals and other festivals. Councilwoman Vickie Paladino’s bill especially targets the longtime carnival practice of awarding goldfish to winners of Ping-Pong toss and similar carnival games. The fish are typically handed out in small plastic bags. Many animal-rights groups — including the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals — vehemently oppose the giveaways because they believe it subjects fish to extreme stress, shock and oxygen starvation and frequently results in death even before the winner gets their prize…

Astrophysicist Avi Loeb explains government secrecy on UAPs Astrophysicist Avi Loeb, lead advisor to the new Trump-era UAP Governance Board, discusses why the government previously maintained secrecy regarding unidentified aerial phenomena. Loeb explains that some objects are unidentified and could pose national security risks from adversarial nations. He advocates for transparency, noting his council seeks to collect unclassified data to better understand these UAPs and potentially make groundbreaking discoveries. NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Avi Loeb, the Harvard astronomer who was chosen last month by the White House to lead a UFO advisory council, believes he was…

These clams are in a jam. Scientists warn that along the West Coast, legions of soft-shell clams are contracting a deadly, highly contagious cancer. Known as bivalve transmissible neoplasia, the cancer is spread when living cancer cells pass from one animal to another through seawater. While the disease has previously been found in soft-shell clams along the Atlantic Coast, this is the first time it has been identified on the West Coast. A study published last month revealed that more than three-quarters of clams at two locations in Washington state waters were affected by the cancer, making it one of the most…

Dutton Ranch‘s Kelly Reilly teased who will be leading season 2 after making it very clear that the Yellowstone spinoff is “not the Beth and Rip show.” “I think season 2 is going to feel very much more Ed [Harris]’ show,” Reilly, 48, recently told TV Insider. “This is not the Beth and Rip show. This is Dutton Ranch, and there’s four lead characters.” Reilly specifically highlighted Annette Bening as well. “It’s such a privilege to have them come join our show,” she added. “I’ve said this before, I feel like they made us legit.” The actress continued: “We could…

The stunning death of South African midfielder Jayden Adams isn’t the first loss his family has suffered since the World Cup began. A little more than three weeks before Adams’ passing from an unknown cause, the 25-year-old was starting for South Africa in Atlanta against the Czech Republic just one day after his grandmother, Marianna Adams, died in a Stellenbosch hospital at the age of 72. South Africa then played its final match of the tournament — a 1-0 loss to Canada in the Round of 32 — on June 28, just one day after she was laid to rest. …

A quick cry could one day save your life. Brazilian researchers have developed a tiny sensor that can detect early signs of Parkinson’s disease in human tears — a method they say is faster, cheaper and far less invasive than the blood tests currently used to measure dopamine levels. Dopamine tends to drop in Parkinson’s patients a full decade before physical symptoms like tremors appear, making early detection critical, said Mark Frasier, chief scientist at the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research. The tear sensor, which delivers results in about three minutes, could flag that decline years before a…

Most archaeologists spend time digging in the dirt or piecing together broken artifacts or bones in the lab, attempting to make sense of the past in a painstakingly slow process. But others use that information — and a little ingenuity — to re-create the sights, sounds, smells and tastes of ancient societies through a practice called experimental archaeology.In his book “Dinner with King Tut: How Rogue Archaeologists Are Re-creating the Sights, Sounds, Smells, and Tastes of Lost Civilizations” (Little, Brown and Co., 2025), author Sam Kean delves into the overloaded sensory world of experimental archaeology practitioners. Along the way, he…
