    Breadless features sandwiches wrapped in leafy greens like collards, swiss chard, and kale in place of bread. Sometimes you just wanna enjoy a sandwich without the thick bread and extra calories that come along with it. For those moments, there’s Breadless, a new locally-owned sandwich shop that opened in Detroit on Monday. Breadless features sandwiches wrapped in leafy greens like collards, swiss chard, and kale in place of bread. The sandwiches can also be served as a salad bowl, and there are both meat and vegetarian options available (the oyster mushroom club sounds delish). The shop is located at 2761...

    Kiss canceled their planned Las Vegas residency suddenly late last week, amid questions about their coronavirus safety protocols. The Rock and Roll Hall of Famers were scheduled to play at Zappos Theater at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas as part of their long-running End of the Road World Tour. The decision came after some of the band's roadies blamed guitar tech Francis Stueber's death on negligent safety protocols in Rolling Stone. Kiss disputed many of the claims the tour staffers made. Kiss was scheduled to play at Zappos Theater from Dec. 29 to Feb. 5, but options to buy tickets...

    The CIA has removed its top officer in Vienna following criticism of his management, including what some considered an insufficient response to a growing number of mysterious health incidents at the U.S. Embassy there, according to current and former U.S. officials.... The sidelining of the station chief in one of the largest and most prestigious CIA posts is expected to send a message that top agency leaders must take seriously any reports of “Havana Syndrome,” the phenomenon named after the Cuban capital where U.S. diplomats and intelligence officers had first reported unusual and varied symptoms, from headaches to vision problems...

    Scientists and health advisers are taking the claims of people who say electricity makes them ill seriously for the first time. The National Radiological Protection Board (NRPB) is carrying out a review of existing scientific studies into "electromagnetic hypersensitivity" (EHS). Two studies into the condition, funded with £750,000 from the Department of Health and the telecommunications industry, are already under way. Sir William Stewart, the government's adviser on radiation, has called for more research into the issue. Some researchers believe a proportion of the population suffers ill health, with symptoms including fatigue, severe headaches and skin problems, because of exposure...
