AdvertisementSo, you’d better believe I tuned in when former chef (and current YouTuber) @SenpaiKai9000 began his video by describing “why rice tastes better in restaurants.”Why DOES rice taste better in restaurants? Lower-quality rice contains more blemishes, has more broken grains, contains the right amount of starch, and is the correct length. But “really good restaurants will cook [rice] in the oven or rice cooker,” he added. To cook it in the oven, the ex-chef covers a baking dish with foil and bakes the water, rice, butter, and salt together for 40-45 minutes. “This allows the rice to cook way more evenly, because the heat source isn’t just coming hyper-aggressively from the bottom.”AdvertisementWhy does butter work in rice?

LOADING ERROR LOADINGA self-described “MAGA junkie” who voted for President Donald Trump last year told CNN she now regrets her decision after losing her job at the Treasury Department as part of the DOGE purge orchestrated by Elon Musk. “I cried,” Jennifer Piggott told the network. “It’s a really scary thing, and I was embarrassed.”She said targeting working-class Americans for layoffs “just doesn’t make sense” to her. “I expected more from President Donald Trump,” she told CNN.

I’m an adventure guide for an all-women’s travel company, which means I get to lead groups of incredible women on hiking, backpacking, surfing, rappelling, snorkeling and cultural trips around the world. I asked them, “How can I get your job?”Advertisement AdvertisementAdvertisementAnd that’s where my ride began — working part-time as an adventure guide at my university while earning my bachelor’s in psychology and communication. At 19, I traveled abroad for the first time, getting paid to guide the Landmannalaugar Trail, a 35-mile trek through Iceland’s backcountry. I watch the sunset from the top of one of America’s best mountains — all while getting paid — and I can’t help but feel sorry for the merry-go-round people. Katie Klos is an adventure guide and writer who leads trips around the world for the company Explorer Chick.

In an interview with Vince Coglianese, Trump said a U.S. delegation was traveling to the territory this week “to let them know that we need Greenland for international safety and security.”Advertisement“We need it, we have to have it,” Trump said. Asked if he thinks the Greenlandic public would be on board with his plans, Trump said he wasn’t sure.

AdvertisementThe head of Germany’s auto industry association, VDA, said the tariffs would weigh on car makers and every company in the deeply interwoven global supply chain “with negative consequences above all for consumers, including in North America.”“The consequences will cost growth and prosperity on all sides,” Hildegard Müller said in a statement. The U.S. is the biggest export destination for the European auto industry and in 2023, European automakers exported 56 billion euros worth of vehicles and parts to the U.S.. Europe’s auto industry supports 13.8 million jobs, or 6.1% of total EU employment. Any trouble in the auto industry would weigh on the European economy that did not grow at all in the last quarter of 2024 and just 0.9% for the entire year. Support HuffPost Already contributed? AdvertisementGerman auto association head Müller called for immediate negotiations between the EU and U.S. on a bilateral agreement that would offer “a forum to discuss the various tariff and non-tariff barriers for automobile products and could lead to a more balanced approach.”

The messages, which The Atlantic first reported on Monday, discussed plans for strikes in Yemen, along with other sensitive national security matters. Here are some of the biggest takeaways from this national security failure:Using Signal To Discuss National Security IssuesThe Trump administration’s decision to use a third-party messaging app like Signal flies in the face of basic operational security measures. Repeated Denials That These Texts Weren’t ‘War Plans’ Fall FlatAfter Goldberg published his initial story saying Trump’s national security adviser, Michael Waltz, accidentally added him to the Signal group, Trump’s team pushed back on the claim that they ever discussed war plans. “The Atlantic released the so-called ‘war plans’ and those ‘plans’ include: No names. And no classified information.”Advertisement“Those are some really shitty war plans,” Hegseth added.
