New Tesla goes from 0-60 in 1.9 seconds.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
If Elon Musk had been holding a microphone during the big reveal event for the upcoming Tesla semi, he could have dropped it a dozen times, especially when a little red sports car emerged from the back of one of two Tesla semi prototypes on hand. While being dramatically backlit and surrounded by the haze from a smoke machine, the car crept down the trailer ramp, turned away from the assembled crowd of VIPs and journalists, and rocketed away as if propelled by a silent thermonuclear explosion. With that, Tesla resurrected the Roadster.

When a prototype of the car finally reappeared after a couple of fast, silent passes, Musk provided just a few comments and details, including confirmation that, yes, the long-awaited follow-up to Tesla's first car was indeed happening. "People asked us for a long time, 'When are you going to make a new Roadster?' We are making it now."

As they are wont to do at Tesla events, the crowd went wild, clearly not bothered at all by the fact that this version is no "roadster" in the traditional "sporty, two-seat convertible" sense but is, rather, a four-seat sports car with a removable glass roof panel. That makes it more akin to a Porsche 911 Targa than anything else, albeit without the complicated power top. Nor, for that matter, is Tesla "making it now" in the sense that you can pop by one of the company's retail centers today and drive one home: the new Roadster supposedly will be available in 2020. Of course, Tesla isn't the best at meeting deadlines, so it remains to be seen if that target date will indeed be hit.

We may be willing to overlook those semantic inaccuracies if the proffered numbers hold up. Zero to 60 mph could take as little as a mind-bending 1.9 seconds, Musk said, with zero to 100 mph being accomplished in just 4.2. The claimed quarter-mile time of 8.8 seconds is truly hard to fathom, while the car's projected top speed is more than 250 mph-and "this is the base model," he said, without providing any hints of what other versions the company might have planned.

Musk didn't provide any details about the three electric motors the car will use, except that they will provide 7376 lb-ft of torque at the wheels and there will be one in front and two in back, which means the Roadster will be all-wheel drive. Musk also asserted that this new Roadster will be the first production car to hit 60 in less than two seconds or cover a quarter-mile in less than nine. The car's capacious 200-kWh battery pack was also touted, enabling, it was claimed, a massive 620 miles of highway range. "Driving a gasoline sports car is going to feel like a steam engine with a side of quiche," said Musk.

The Roadster's exterior design is quite beautiful, if not as striking as that of, say, a Bugatti Chiron, one of the only cars that may be able to keep up with the thing. It's also not quite as distinctive as a McLaren 570GT, a car with which it will compete on price, with the electric model already advertised to start at $200,000; Tesla says that $250K will snag one of the 1000 Founders Series launch models, although no other details were given about those. (Naturally, Tesla invites customers to reserve a Roadster now for $50,000; reservations for the Founders Series version cost the full $250,000.)

We hope that the next-generation Model X and Model S will adopt some of the Roadster's more successful design elements, such as the contoured hood and the curvy body sculpting. The interior appears relatively austere, too, but that's something of a Tesla hallmark at this point.

We'll bring you more details as they become available, presumably accompanied by the sound of mics dropping.

* VOTE NOW: Esurance MLB Awards' Best Major Leaguer

It is the first MVP honor for both players.

Stanton, who is the first player in Marlins team history to be honored with the NL MVP Award, edged Joey Votto of the Reds by two points in the third closest in NL MVP balloting and the fourth overall. D-backs slugger Paul Goldschmidt finished in third place.

Always a premier power threat, Stanton took his reputation to new heights in 2017. He hit 59 home runs, the most by any player in 16 years. Stanton led the Majors with 132 RBIs, a .631 slugging percentage and tied for first with 71 extra-base hits.

The Marlins' right fielder finished in the top five in the big leagues in runs, total bases and OPS, while walking often (85 times) and socking 32 doubles. Stanton set career highs in nearly every offensive category while hitting .281/.376/.631 on the year.

Stanton was dominant from a perspective as well, leading the National League in average exit velocity (91.9 mph), barrels (76), and placing second in average home run distance (min 30 HR).

Buoyed by a midseason swing change, Stanton closed his stance in June and rode the adjustment to an avalanche of second-half success. He slugged .702 with 33 home runs after the All-Star break, including 18 in August, which tied the Major League record for the month set in 1937. His .349/.433/.899 slash line in August rivals the best by any player in any month, and Stanton's sizzling bat single-handedly kept Miami in the NL Wild Card hunt for a while. At one point, Stanton homered in six straight games.

Stanton came close to winning the NL MVP Award once previously, when he placed second in 2014. But a season-ending facial injury cut his year short, ultimately hurting his candidacy.

Altuve was the heartbeat -- and best player -- on the best team in baseball. He won his second consecutive batting title and third in four seasons, hitting .346 with an AL-best 204 hits. He became the first player in Major League history to lead his league in hits four consecutive seasons.

By doing this, Altuve racked up records and laurels. He led the AL in multihit games and infield hits and led the Majors in games with at least three hits. He tied for second in runs (112), third in on-base percentage (.410), third in stolen bases, third in OPS (.957), fifth in total bases (323), sixth in slugging percentage (.547) and tied for ninth in doubles (39).

Altuve also stole 32 bases, eclipsing the 30-steals mark for the sixth consecutive season. He matched a career-high with 23 home runs, drove in 81 runs and slashed .346/.410/.547, while ranking as one of baseball's top two players by bWAR (8.3) and fWAR (7.5).

Altuve is the second player in Astros history to win the award, and the first since Jeff Bagwell in 1994, in the National League. He's the first second baseman to win the award in either league since Dustin Pedroia in 2008.

Yankees slugger Aaron Judge, who captured the AL Rookie of the Year Award on Monday, finished second in the AL MVP Award voting, while Indians third baseman Jose Ramirez wrapped up this breakout season with a third-place showing.

A single mom in Louisiana volunteered her son to pick up yards, wash cars, and do other chores for people in his community after he had been suspended from his school for three days because he talked back to a teacher.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
When Demetris Payne saw a missed call from her son's junior high school, she knew something was wrong.

With a sigh, the single mom of four from Shreveport, Louisiana, called back. A school official said her 13-year-old son Jadarien was suspended for three days for talking back to his teacher. She was told to pick him up right away.

"Three days seems kind of harsh -- why not do in-school suspension?" Payne asked.

But since Jadarien had been in trouble once before, they said he had to leave.

As soon as the pair got home, Payne took away her son's cellphone and video games. She left him with her 70-year-old father who lives with them.

"When I got home from work he's eating strawberries and having fun with my dad," Payne told CBS News. "I was like, 'Oh no.' It was like a vacation."

Payne knew she needed to do more to discipline him.

So she handed him a rake and asked him to start cleaning up the yard. When he was finished, she told him he'd be volunteering his lawn care services free of charge for people in need during the remainder of his suspension.

"He didn't believe it," Payne said. "I can be soft on him and baby him sometimes."

But Payne was serious. She posted a photo of Jadarien on Facebook with the heading, "Yard service - FREE," explaining that he got suspended from school and would mow lawns, pick up trash or wash cars for members of the community over the next three days.

Posted by Demetris Payne on Friday, November 10, 2017

Within hours, Payne got requests from several residents taking her up on the offer.

So she drove Jadarien from house to house. She stood by the car and watched him work. He mowed lawns, picked up pine needles and raked leaves.

"He didn't complain the whole time," Payne said.

Jadarien spent about two hours cleaning up the yards. He ended up hitting at least eight different homes. When he was finished, Payne took him to the library, where he spent the rest of the day reading and completing homework assignments.

"We explained to him that these chores weren't to punish, punish, punish, but to teach him a lesson and teach him about discipline," Payne said. "No matter if the teacher is right or wrong -- always respect your teachers, respect adults."

On Tuesday, Jadarien was happy to finally head back to school.

Look who's back at school. Meeting with all his teachers and set up a plan so we can make sure he stays on track....
Posted by Demetris Payne on Tuesday, November 14, 2017

The eighth-grader's classmates and teachers said they saw him on Facebook.

"He just laughed it off," Payne said. "Some people say he was 'shamed.' He wasn't shamed at all. He's not that type of kid. He really isn't."

Payne sat down with Jadarien's teachers to help come up with a plan to keep him on track. However, she's confident Jadarien learned his lesson.

Hundreds of people have shared Payne's Facebook post over the past week, many praising her for her unique approach to discipline.

"Beautiful idea! Parenting done right," one Facebook user commented.

"Raising your child to learn consequences for unacceptable behavior falls under good parenting 101," another wrote.

Payne said she hopes her other kids -- ages 3, 8 and 17 -- also learned something from Jadarien's experience. But if she has to do it all over again, she will.

"Single parents, do not give up. Keep encouraging your child. When one avenue doesn't work try another avenue. Get to the root of the problem," she advised.

Days of Shrugging Off Sexual Misconduct at the Capitol May Be Over

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Slideshow by Business Insider
WASHINGTON - Capitol Hill has long been an insular boys' club known for tales of unwanted sexual approaches, wandering hands at crowded receptions and young women cornered in elevators. But the days when such actions are dismissed out of hand and escape scrutiny may be coming to an end.

The quick bipartisan call for an ethics inquiry into accusations of groping by Senator Al Franken, Democrat of Minnesota, made clear that a rapidly shifting national mood on the subject had reached the Capitol, raising the prospect that lawmakers and aides will be increasingly unwilling to overlook sexual misconduct, harassment and crude behavior that they might have let pass before.

"We are at a watershed moment," Representative Nancy Pelosi of California, the Democratic leader, declared on Thursday, calling on Congress to overhaul its fairly toothless internal process for dealing with sexual harassment.
Sign Up For the Morning Briefing Newsletter
It was evident the national outpouring of disturbing accounts of sexual harassment and assault and the furor surrounding Roy S. Moore, the Republican Senate candidate in Alabama, was prompting an examination of the culture in Congress. Though Congress has often shown a reluctance to police itself too strenuously, some lawmakers were demanding a legislative response as well as a recognition that attitudes and activities accepted in the past should be exposed and punished.

"I think we need to, as a country, have a much fuller conversation about this kind of behavior - how wrong it is, how toxic it is, how harmful it is, and how we need to support survivors and make sure that there is a place for them to not only tell their story, but to get some measure of justice, some measure of transparency and accountability," said Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, Democrat of New York. She spoke in an interview for the New York Times podcast "The New Washington."

Congress has long been a natural locale for inappropriate sexual behavior, with thousands of young and ambitious aides striving for advancement while working for bosses who hold power beyond typical superiors in a business given their political stature.

To be sure, Congress has seen many highly publicized cases of unacceptable sexual behavior and misconduct, including accusations of harassment and assault by Senator Bob Packwood, an influential Republican from Oregon in the 1990s, and accounts of Representative Mark Foley of Florida making overtures to House pages. That scandal led to Mr. Foley's ouster, helped Republicans lose the House in 2006 and ended the House page program. But those events and a few others became so big that they dominated headlines.

Many, many other occurrences of sexual harassment by lawmakers and staff members over the years went unreported because of the understandable reluctance of the victims to take on powerful figures. Each House and Senate office is like an independent business, with lawmakers and their senior aides controlling budgets, plum assignments and job mobility with little to no oversight. It has been a significant risk for aides to challenge the system and put their political hopes on the line.

At the same time, lawmakers and others have been resistant to naming names. In some cases, they have admired a person or have recognized the need to work with them in the future. Going public can also damage one's own political party by setting off scrutiny. Representative Jackie Speier, Democrat of California, said this week that she was aware of two members of Congress - one from each party - known to have engaged in sexual harassment, but she did not name them.

That climate could be changing.

"I think that the, sort of, flood gates have been opened in terms of the people who are willing to talk about their experiences," said Representative Linda Sánchez of California, a member of the Democratic leadership. "And we can learn from that to figure out - how do we tighten up the procedures to make it a fairer process for complainants?"

"I think many don't come forward because of the fear of reprisal, the fear of losing their job and the economic impact of that, the fear of being blacklisted throughout their career," Ms. Sánchez said. "And I think now is finally that turning point in our country where people are starting to take complaints seriously, and people are starting to agitate for a fairer process for those who have been the victims of sexual assault or sexual harassment."

With intense attention focused on Mr. Moore - who is accused of sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl in 1979 while he was in his 30s - and now Mr. Franken, the clear expectation on Capitol Hill was that more names and past episodes could surface.

A striking element of the case of Mr. Franken -who was accused of forcing a kiss on a fellow member of a troupe performing for American forces overseas in 2006 and later groping her as she slept - was the speed at which members of both parties backed an ethics inquiry into the events, which happened before he was elected to the Senate.

"I strongly condemn this behavior, and the Senate Ethics Committee must open an investigation," said Senator Amy Klobuchar, Mr. Franken's Democratic colleague from Minnesota. She called the episode "another example of why we need to change work environments and reporting practices across the nation, including in Congress."

In the House, Speaker Paul D. Ryan of Wisconsin has called for mandatory harassment training for all lawmakers and staff members, and the Senate passed a resolution directing that the Senate do the same. But others want Congress to go much further and institute a system that would provide more job protection and support for victims.

Like everything in Congress, changing a deeply ingrained culture where the powerful sometimes believed sexual advantage came with the oath of office is going to take time and negotiation. But the bipartisan response to the Moore and Franken cases - and the prospect of others to come - suggest that the rules of the boys' club may be in for a rewrite.

Hampton Police said they arrested a man Wednesday who was accused of trying to carjack a 67-year-old man on November 9. They arrested a 24-year-old man named Jared Ross Lesesne and charged him with malicious wounding and attempted carjacking.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
HAMPTON, Va. - Hampton Police said they arrested a man Wednesday who was accused of trying to carjack a 67-year-old man on November 9.

The victim had part of his thumb bitten off as he is fighting off a suspected carjacker.

News 3's exclusively spoke to the victim Wednesday. He didn't want his name used in the story.

He had a bandage covering his right thumb and said it was throbbing in pain after surgery on Tuesday.

He said back on November 9 he went to his older brother's house to fix his wheelchair but when he went to leave and get back in his truck he says a young man attacked him.

It happened on the 600 block of Lee Street around 5:30 p.m.

"He just started wailing on me and trying to pull me on out of the truck," he said. "I had a good size knot there and he hit me behind the ear which is still sore. At the same time, I'm laying back and kicking, trying to get him off of me."

He said the fight spilled over into the street and for a second it looked like the suspect gave up, but then he came back around and got into the passenger side of the truck and the alleged assault continues.

"I was trying to turn the ignition off with my left hand and I'm holding him around with his neck with my right hand and at some point, my thumb ended up in his mouth and he bit down on it. I yanked my thumb out of his mouth and he ran," he said.

There was blood everywhere and he gave us pictures of the injuries which were very intense.

"You're too scared to think," he said.

He said it took a few minutes to realize the tip was missing.

"As I looked down and I asked the police officer what was that down there, she shined her light and that's when she discovered the tip of the finger laying there by the door of my truck," he said.

Police arrested 24-year-old Jared Ross Lesesne and charged him with malicious wounding and attempted carjacking.

The victim said the shock of what happened didn't set in until the day after the attack when the doctor explained that he couldn't save the tip of his thumb.

"When I realize the severity depressed and got depressed very depressed," he said.

Now he has a warning for others.

"Please be aware of your surroundings at all times," he said.

The victim said he has surgery again on Friday and is just trying to deal with what happened.

The Ohio State University suspended the activities of almost all of its fraternities Thursday, citing a large number of ongoing investigations into hazing and alcohol -- making it the latest US school to take action against Greek student organizations in the wake of troubling incidents.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Of the 37 fraternities that are part of the Interfraternity Council, 11 have been under investigation since the start of the school year for possible violations of the student code of conduct, Ohio State said. The majority of the cases involve "hazing and/or alcohol," a statement said.

"This is an unacceptably high number, and the university will not tolerate behavior that puts the health and safety of students at risk," read a message sent to fraternity chapter presidents by the school's director of Greek life, Ryan Lovell.

"As a result ... I am hereby suspending all social, recruitment and new member activities for Interfraternity Council chapters until further notice, effective immediately."

Ohio State said the move was not based on any specific case, but instead on the high number of investigations.

The head of the Interfraternity Council at Ohio State said it would work with the school to find "tangible solutions to the problems that exist within our community."

Ohio State, in Columbus, is one of the nation's largest universities, with more than 45,000 undergraduate students.

It is the latest school to clamp down on Greek letter organizations following incidents of hazing, misconduct, and even deaths of students.

Texas State University

Earlier this week, Texas State University moved to suspend all fraternity and sorority activities after a 20-year-old fraternity pledge died following an off-campus social event.

Police said friends discovered Matthew Ellis, a pledge for the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity, unresponsive at an apartment complex Monday morning; he was declared dead an hour later. A preliminary investigation indicated alcohol may have been a factor in his death, police said.

University President Denise Trauth suspended all activities of Greek fraternity and sorority chapters at the university. Trauth also ordered a review of the Greek life on campus that would propose recommendations for reinstating the chapters.

The Texas State chapter of Phi Kappa Psi had been suspended by the national fraternity for "unrelated matters" last week, according to a statement from Phi Kappa Psi executive director Mark Guidi.

Other fraternity incidents

-- The University of Michigan is investigating fraternities there after learning the school's Interfraternity Council suspended all chapters at the Ann Arbor school last week, according to CNN affiliate WDIV.

The council said it made the decision because some members of its community had failed to live up to its standards of conduct. But The Michigan Daily, the campus newspaper, said the decision came after allegations of sexual misconduct, hazing, and drug and alcohol use.

-- Last week, Florida State University suspended all fraternity and sorority activity in the wake of a fraternity pledge's death. Andrew Coffey, 20, was found unresponsive the morning after attending a party.

-- An 18-year-old freshman pledge at Louisiana State University died in September after a night of heavy drinking at the Phi Delta Theta house, police said. Maxwell Gruver passed out on a couch and by the time fraternity members checked on him in the morning, his pulse was weak. He died at a hospital. Phi Delta Theta's national office suspended the chapter following Gruver's death.

-- At Penn State, sophomore Tim Piazza, 19, died after his first night pledging a fraternity in February. Surveillance footage played in court showed Piazza falling repeatedly, including down a set of stairs, following an event that involved heavy drinking.

After his fall, a dying Piazza was placed on a couch for hours as fellow fraternity brothers searched on Google about head injuries, hid evidence and pushed back against those who wanted to call for help, according to prosecutors. Authorities weren't called until the next morning, as fraternity members "literally delayed getting him help," prosecutors said.

Twenty-six fraternity members are charged with various offenses related to Piazza's death, including involuntary manslaughter, assault and hazing.

Arizona Cardinals give Larry Fitzgerald a 1 year extension. Fitzgerald can return to the Cardinals next year but doesn't guarantee it.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The Arizona Cardinals announced Friday that they agreed to terms on a one-year contract extension that will keep wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald with the club through 2018.

Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio first reported the sides were nearing an agreement.

The extension does not guarantee Fitzgerald will play in 2018, as he still plans to consider all options, including retirement.

Fitzgerald entered the 2017 season on an expiring deal after he inked a one-year extension in August 2016, but he stated over the summer he wasn't thinking about retiring even though he turned 34 years old shortly before Week 1.

"I can still play at a high level," he said in July, according to NFL.com's Steve Wyche. "If my number is called I can still make a play."

That much has been clear this season.

Despite a rash of injuries that have plagued quarterbacks Carson Palmer and Drew Stanton, Fitzgerald has remained the centerpiece of Arizona's passing attack.

Through nine games, Fitzgerald leads the Cardinals in receptions (60), receiving yards (677) and receiving touchdowns (three). In fact, no other player on the team has eclipsed more than 35 catches or 350 yards.

On a more macro scale, returning for one more season will give Fitzgerald a legitimate chance to move into even more esteemed territory on a pair of the league's receiving leaderboards.

Entering Week 11, Fitzgerald (1,185) sits 140 catches shy of legendary tight end Tony Gonzalez (1,325) on the -868 yards shy of all-time receptions list. He's also currently sixth on the all-time receiving yards list (15,066) Terrell Owens for No. 2 in league history.

However, Fitzgerald has remained adamant that Super Bowl aspirations-not statistical achievements-are why he's sticking around.

"That's the only reason I'm playing at this point," Fitzgerald said of aiming for a Super Bowl, according to ESPN.com's Josh Weinfuss. "From a personal standpoint and the things I've accomplished, they're fine. But the thing that you will say is out of your control because you're in a team sport is a championship."

"We have had our sights set on international expansion for months, and the Canadian market is an obvious fit for Lyft's culture, values and the service that we provide," Lyft CEO Logan Green said in a statement to CNN Tech. "We've had incredible interest from both drivers and passengers in Toronto."

Previously, Lyft operated internationally through partnerships with local ride-sharing companies, like Grab in Southeast Asia and Didi in China.

"Lyft is a little late to the [international] game, but enjoys a better public image [than Uber], which I expect will ease their expansion efforts," said Carl Doty, vice president and group director at research firm Forrester.

"There is some pretty high, positive sentiment with Lyft," he added. "They are playing this slow and steady wins the race game."

The move comes as its competitor Uber continues to face challenges abroad. The company is appealing London's decision to pull its license after the city's transport authority said Uber was not "fit and proper" to operate there.

Uber also considered pulling out of Quebec. The company was operating in the Canadian province under a government pilot project, which was renewed with stricter requirement. For example, Quebec wants drivers to complete 35 hours of training, which Uber said was not feasible for many of its drivers who have other jobs and only drive for the service part-time.

But last month, the company said it would continue to operate in Quebec for now and hopes to negotiate with the new transport minister about the new regulations.

Uber already operates in Toronto.

Last month, Lyft announced a $1 billion investment round led by Google parent company Alphabet .

Doctors have found you can fight off salt and sugar cravings with spicy foods. They did a test in China with over 600 citizens using PET/CT scans. The scans revealed that by consuming spicy foods it increases your sensitivity to salt and sugar which can decrease your cravings for them.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Research has shown that simply spicing up your diet may help you consume less salt and possibly less sugar, while potentially improving your health even beyond the reduction of salt and sugar.

There is more consistent evidence that spicy food helps curb salt cravings than sugar.

In a study involving more than 600 people from China whose brains were analyzed with PET/CT scans, researchers found that regions stimulated by intake of both salty and spicy foods overlapped. Because of similar activities taking place in this shared space (think of the overlapping parts of a Venn diagram), consuming spicy foods effectively enhanced one's sensitivity to salt, thereby helping people crave and consume less salt.

"We think that spicy food can trick our brain when tasting salty food. It makes us taste the same (level of) saltiness even when a reduced amount of salt is actually consumed," said study author Dr. Zhiming Zhu, professor and director of the Department of Hypertension and Endocrinology at the Third Military Medical University in Chongqing, China.

In fact, researchers found that people who regularly enjoy spicy foods consumed 2.5 grams less salt in a day (that's 1,000 fewer milligrams of sodium) compared with those who typically steer clear of spice. They also had lower blood pressure.

It remains to be seen whether the findings can be replicated in other populations outside China, said Richard David Wainford, associate professor in the Department of Pharmacology at the Boston University School of Medicine, in an accompanying editorial. Still, "a lifestyle intervention that adds taste to the diet, in the form of extra spice and flavor, versus reduction of the pleasure given by the salt we add to our food, may have more success as a public health strategy to promote population-level dietary salt reduction," he added.

Spice may have the potential to curb sugar cravings too, though the evidence is mixed. In one study involving 40 students from Denmark, when chili pepper was added to sweet, sour and bitter meals, participants experienced a greater desire to eat sweet foods compared with meals without chili added.

In another study, also from Denmark, people experienced a decreased desire for salty and spicy foods when they ate tomato soup with cayenne pepper compared with eating the soup without pepper. But their desire for sweet and fatty foods significantly increased when they consumed the spicy soup.

No pain, no weight gain?

Capsaicin is the compound in chili peppers that is responsible for the burning sensation we experience when eating them. The compound has the ability to suppress sweet taste, which could also explain some findings.

But while some may enjoy the heat that capsaicin produces, it may also come with an unintended consequence.

"Capsaicin helps fight pain. Most of the time, you hear about this as a topical cream, but eating chili peppers also has benefits. It may be that when the pain goes away, you're stimulated to consume more sweet foods," said Mary-Jon Ludy, an associate professor of clinical nutrition at Bowling Green State University.

In a meta-analysis, involving more than 70 studies, funded by the National Institutes of Health and the McCormick Science Institute, researchers state that the balance of the literature suggests the capsaicin suppresses appetite, though the magnitude of the effects is small. "Purposeful inclusion of these compounds in the diet may aid weight management, albeit modestly," the study stated.

(Note that the National Institutes of Health is a federal government agency, and the McCormick Science Institute is an independent research organization that is owned and funded by spice product manufacturer McCormick & Co. Inc. The company said it does not influence the science institute's research priorities.)

The meta-analysis included the Danish study that found increased sugar cravings among those who consumed spicy meals. But it also included a study that found adding spice can actually curb sugar cravings. In that study, when people added half a teaspoon of red pepper to their lunch, they had a decreased desire to eat sugary, fatty and salty foods, and ate about 70 fewer calories at their next meal. The effects were seen only among those who didn't regularly consume red pepper.

"I think that there's something in the novelty of the stimulus that would allow you to eat less," said Ludy, who authored the study and the meta-analysis. "In terms of the work with red pepper, I think that that's an important piece of the puzzle. If you are adding a spicy meal every couple of weeks, it might be enough to have an effect ... but if you have it every day, the effect goes away, because you get used to it."

A little dash will do ya

To get started with spice, Ludy recommends sprinkling red pepper flakes into eggs in the morning. You can also use spice when making a rub for meat or when seasoning vegetables, soups, pasta or curry dishes.

She also recommends adding red pepper flakes to a meal in anticipation of a tempting dessert. "It may give you that extra piece of security," she said. Though not specific to sweet taste, cinnamon, ginger and saffron are other pungent spices with appetite suppressive effects, according to Ludy.

However you choose to use spice, it's wise to start slowly. "Remember that a tiny bit of spice can go a long way!" Ludy said. If the heat is an issue, you can calm your taste buds by pairing hot spices with healthy fats, such as avocados and nuts, according to Ludy. "They help break down the chemical that causes the burn."

If you're new to spicy peppers, she recommends starting with milder varieties, such as jalapeno or serrano, which cause less burn than cayenne or habanero. "These peppers still contain some capsaicin but not as much. Although I haven't researched it directly, my guess is that there would still be appetite effects (perhaps of a lesser magnitude) ... but if you can't tolerate higher quantities of spice, something is better than nothing, right?"

George H. W. Bush has been accused of sexually assaulting a woman in 1992 during re-election campaign.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The woman, now 55, spoke exclusively with CNN and said she was attending a fundraiser for Bush's re-election campaign in Dearborn, Michigan, with her father when the president grabbed her rear end during a photo-op.

"We got closer together for a family photo and it was like 'Holy crap!'" she said, describing the moment Bush touched her buttocks. "It was like a gentle squeeze."

In the moment, the woman said, she just smiled for the camera. There were people all around, including US Secret Service, but she does not believe anyone else noticed. She said she rationalized the moment to herself back then by saying they were moving closer together for the photo and so "it was probably an accident."

Recent reports about groping allegations against the former president, now 93 and in a wheelchair, made her rethink that incident.

"All the focus has been on 'He's old.' OK, but he wasn't old when it happened to me," she told CNN. "I've been debating what to do about it."

Her story -- remarkably similar to the accounts shared by at least six other women who said the former president groped them during photo-ops between 2003 and 2016 -- is significant, because it is the first time a woman has come forward to accuse Bush of unwanted touching while he was in office.

This latest Bush accuser asked that her name not be published to avoid unwanted media attention. However, CNN has spoken with the woman's ex-husband and her best friend, both of whom she told of the incident soon after it occurred.

"I remember her coming home and her saying he (Bush) said (to her father), 'Is that your daughter?' or 'Who's that with you?' and her dad said, 'It's my daughter,' and he said, 'Well, get her in the picture,'" the woman's ex-husband said. "She tried to write it off as 'move in closer' -- but no, it wasn't. The hand definitely was across the butt. It wasn't across the waist."

The woman shared with CNN the photograph of the moment during which she said Bush grabbed her, along with the transcript of his address to the Dearborn fundraiser and recent texts from her ex-husband and a co-worker referring to the 1992 incident in the wake of the groping allegations against Bush that surfaced in October.

Her best friend noted that the woman had a "strange look on her face in the photograph" and she asked her whether that was the moment the president grabbed her.

"I said, 'Is that when it happened?' And she said 'Yes,'" the friend said.

Bush spokesman Jim McGrath declined to comment on this latest allegation.

Earlier allegations

Actress Heather Lind, who appeared in the AMC series "Turn: Washington's Spies," wrote in October that Bush touched her inappropriately a few years ago as they were posing for a photograph, and while she did not get into the specifics of the incident, she referred to it as a sexual assault.

"He didn't shake my hand. He touched me from behind his wheelchair with his wife, Barbara Bush, by his side and told me a dirty joke. And then, all the while being photographed, touched me again," Lind wrote in a now-deleted post on Instagram.

A second actress, Jordana Grolnick, described a 2016 incident in which she said she was groped by Bush.

"He came backstage to take a picture with a group of girls and he was in a wheelchair and he reached his hand around and said to the group ... 'Do you know who my favorite magician is?' And we all said, 'No, who?' and he said, 'David Cop-a-Feel,' and at that moment, I felt him grab my behind," she told CNN in an interview in October.

A third woman who wished to remain anonymous told CNN in October that she met Bush at a VIP event in Houston in 2015. She said he squeezed her buttocks "a couple times. It was unmistakable. It was not just a pat. It was a serious squeeze."

Best-selling author Christina Baker Kline wrote in Slate in October about being groped by the former president in April 2014 when she was invited to Houston as a guest author for the Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy fundraiser.

"I had this one moment with this ex-president. He beckons me over and says, 'You're a writer. Do you know what my favorite book is?' I thought, 'This is my one moment with this guy,'" she told CNN. I thought, 'I'm a writer and a reader, and this president is going to tell me his favorite book. What an honor.' I leaned forward thinking this is a moment to remember -- a moment of connection. The joke was on me."

Baker Kline, who said Bush told her a version of the "David Cop-a-Feel" joke as he groped her, had also been reluctant to share her story publicly. But like several of the women CNN spoke to, she was irritated by the explanations being put forward by Bush's team, which she said did not accurately represent what happened and were instead "twisting it around."

"It doesn't happen in a vacuum," she said. "Not every man does this, but if he does it, he usually does it more than once. Someone doesn't just grab a woman's butt out of the blue that hasn't done it before."

Pamela Kruger, a friend of Baker Kline, said the writer told her about the incident in 2016 when the sexual harassment allegations against then-Fox News chief Roger Ailes were emerging.

"What she wrote in Slate captured what she conveyed to me about the experience," Kruger told CNN.

In response to the allegations reported last month, most of which allegedly occurred in the last few years, McGrath issued a statement that cited the former president's age and physical condition.

"At age 93, President Bush has been confined to a wheelchair for roughly five years, so his arm falls on the lower waist of people with whom he takes pictures," McGrath wrote. "To try to put people at ease, the president routinely tells the same joke -- and on occasion, he has patted women's rears in what he intended to be a good-natured manner. Some have seen it as innocent; others clearly view it as inappropriate. To anyone he has offended, President Bush apologizes most sincerely."

McGrath confirmed to CNN at the time that he was referring to the "David Cop-a-Feel" joke mentioned by four of the women who have made allegations against the former president when he wrote last month's statement.

Earlier this week, after allegations surfaced in Time magazine that the former president groped Roslyn Corrigan in 2003, when she was just 16 years old and he was not in a wheelchair, McGrath issued another statement.

"George Bush simply does not have it in his heart to knowingly cause anyone distress, and he again apologizes to anyone he offended during a photo op." he wrote.

The Michigan woman said those explanations bothered her.

"I was starting to get irritated, because they were trying to excuse it like he was just a doddering old man," she said. "He was a sitting president who was running for election."

"He gave a fairly lengthy speech that day and all the big heavy hitters were there, from the Detroit area," said the woman.

Former journalist Liz Allen, 66, shared a Facebook post in late October about a 2004 encounter during which, she said, Bush touched her inappropriately.

"Guess what? He did this to me when we posed for a photo after the Manufacturer and Business Association dinner," she wrote in the post.

"It was cool to be in a photo with a former president. But I remember feeling uncomfortable with that pat or touch on my behind. It didn't traumatize me. I didn't need counseling. I told a couple of friends about it later, but I didn't make a big deal about it then and I'm not making a big deal about it now. It just felt inappropriate," she wrote.

Allen told CNN she wanted to share her story because she wanted people to know "this happened before he was in a wheelchair."

"He wasn't feeble. He gave what I thought was a really good speech that night -- very statesmanlike," she said.

Allen's sister, who was visiting her in Erie, Pennsylvania,during that time, corroborated her story.

"She came home and said she took this photo with George Bush, which she still has," she said. "We kind of laughed at it at the time. We thought it was creepy."

Home construction and price are at the best percentage in years.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Construction of new homes climbed 13.7 percent in October, the biggest jump in a year as builders broke ground on more apartments and single-family houses.

The Commerce Department said Friday that the monthly gain put U.S. housing starts at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.29 million units. That is the best pace for home construction in 12 months.

Housing starts have risen just 2.4 percent year-to-date, largely because fewer apartment complexes are being built. Single-family house construction has driven much of the growth this year in a sign of greater demand from buyers amid a healthy job market.

But recent building trends reversed themselves somewhat in October, with most of the momentum coming from apartment construction. The building of multi-family properties jumped 37.4 percent in October. Construction of single-family houses increased 5.3 percent.

Still, the building of new homes has done little to alleviate the growing shortage of existing homes for sale. This shortage has started to stifle the broader real estate market. Purchases of existing homes have fallen over the past 12 months, according to the National Association of Realtors. The decline largely reflects that there are 121,600 fewer homes on the market during the same period, a 6.4 percent decrease that new construction has been unable to offset.

"For a significant increase in new homes, municipalities are going to have to work harder to make more land available for building," said Robert Frick, a corporate economist with Navy Federal Credit Union.

Construction in the South rose 17.2 percent last month, a sign the region is regaining its footing after damage from Hurricanes Harvey and Irma. Home construction shot up in the Northeast due to ground breakings for apartments. Construction also increased in the Midwest but declined in the West.

Building permits, an indicator of future construction, rose 5.9 percent in October to 1.3 million.
