New York CNN —Finally, an emoji to represent us all is coming soon: An exhausted face with bags under its eyes. It’s one of eight new emoji that will appear on smartphones and computers next year, which also include a root vegetable, a harp, a leafless tree, a fingerprint, a shovel, a purple splatter, and a flag for the remote island in the English Channel called Sark. Emojipedia, a popular emoji reference site, released sample images a few months ago. Recently, the Unicode Consortium, the non-profit that oversees global emoji standards and new releases approved the new emoji lineup. The exhausted emoji face had the honors of winning the “most anticipated” emoji in the World Emoji Awards receiving more than 60% of the vote.

New York CNN —Wednesday is National Cheeseburger Day, with some of the biggest chains offering some much-needed discounts amid consumer complaints about rising prices. It’s part of company’s string of deals to kickstart slumping sales, including recently extending its popular $5 value meal until December. Fast food has been a low-profit margin business with little customer loyalty. McDonald’s pricey burgers have become a flashpoint of criticism and a symbol of elevated fast food prices. So deals are particularly crucial to fast food companies at the moment to lure customers back.

☆ Cramer says a rate cut might be imminent because consumers are so stretched

CNBC's Jim Cramer on Wednesday detailed why he thinks the Federal Reserve will soon implement interest rate cuts, saying earnings season so far makes it clear that consumers continue to feel the weight of inflation. "I think that's why the Fed really laid the groundwork for a rate cut when it issued its statement today." At its Wednesday meeting, the Federal Reserve chose to hold rates steady, saying there has been "some further progress" towards its 2% inflation goal. Consumers are turning away from companies they feel have priced their goods too high, Cramer said. "Things are too expensive because people aren't doing well enough to afford to buy them, and interest rates are too high.

California is likely to be especially hard hit, with highs passing 110 degrees Fahrenheit (43 degrees Celsius) in many areas. For instance, chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of at least 165 degrees Fahrenheit, and ground beef should be cooked to at least 160 degrees Fahrenheit. That applies to cooked meat like hamburgers as well as perishable salads like potato salad and cole slaw. Not only can raw milk harbor bacteria, but it is also possible that raw milk can transmit the bird flu. It wasn’t advisable for people to drink raw milk or consume products made from raw milk prior to the bird flu outbreak, and it certainly is not advisable now.
