London CNN  —  Those who want to follow in the footsteps of King Charles III will get the chance this summer – but they’ll have to take off their shoes. Visitors to London’s Westminster Abbey will be invited to walk on the church’s historic “Cosmati” pavement – the spot where Charles’ newly restored coronation chair will be placed for his coronation on May 6 – as long as they strip down to their socks to protect the floor. The mosaic, a colorful and highly decorative work composed of marble, stone, glass and metal, is the best surviving example of the inlay stonework known as Cosmati outside of Italy, according to the abbey. Groups of up to 10 visitors at a time will be allowed to walk on the floor on select days between May 15 and July 29, the abbey said on its website, “with everyone asked to remove their…

CNN  —  When the second annual Middle East & North Africa’s 50 Best Restaurants was hosted in Abu Dhabi earlier this year, it helped shine a light on the emirate’s own fine dining scene as well as honoring the region’s best culinary creativity. Restaurants across 14 Middle Eastern and North African cities were garlanded, with the overall winner named as Orfali Bros Bistro, a Dubai spot founded in 2021 by three brothers originally from the Syrian city of Aleppo. While its glitzy neighbor Dubai has had a head start, Abu Dhabi is now stepping in to the fray and its three entries on the list are testament to the strength of…

CNN  —  We’ve had people tracking their bags when airlines can’t find them. Now here’s something new: a passenger tracking an item she left on a plane – to an airport employee’s home. Earlier in March, Alisabeth Hayden, from Washington state in the US, was separated from her AirPods – Apple’s pricey micro headphones – while disembarking from a plane in San Francisco. She swiftly realized that they appeared to have been stolen. But after nearly two weeks, she had them back – thanks to her tenacious tracking abilities. Hayden was flying back from a trip to Tokyo to visit her husband, who is on secondment in the military, when she was parted from…

CNN  —  The eyes are more than a window to the soul — they’re also a reflection of a person’s cognitive health. “The eye is the window into the brain,” said ophthalmologist Dr. Christine Greer, director of medical education at the Institute for Neurodegenerative Diseases in Boca Raton, Florida. “You can see directly into the nervous system by looking into the back of the eye, toward the optic nerve and retina.” Research has been exploring how the eye may help in diagnosing Alzheimer’s disease before symptoms begin. The disease is well advanced by the time memory and behavior are affected. “Alzheimer’s disease begins in the brain decades before the first symptoms of memory loss,” said Dr. Richard Isaacson, an Alzheimer’s…
