North Carolina resident Michael Cusick and his Rivian R1T got caught in Hurricane Helene last week. But his experience with his Rivian R1T EV truck following Hurricane Helene — a storm that ravaged the southeast, including Cusick's home in Asheville, North Carolina — has cemented his position as a new Rivian convert. Cusick's Rivian in Pisgah National Forest in North Carolina earlier this year. A Rivian spokesperson told Inside EVs, which earlier reported on Cusick's truck, that Rivian battery packs are sealed to provide floodwater protection. The interior of Cusick's Rivian truck was kept dry during Hurricane Helene, Cusick told BI.

That's because of a twisty backstory involving gun-shy Hollywood studios, a fledgling producer, and his father-in-law: Dan Snyder, a billionaire Trump supporter who initially bankrolled the movie. Related storiesYou got a Trump supporter to fund this movie, which in no way is a movie a Trump supporter would want to see, let alone fund. And so indirectly, a Republican Trump donor's money was paying for the production of this movie. The nightmare scenario would be that we shoot this movie and then Dan Snyder hates the movie and somehow is able to block it. AdvertisementThis will sound pretty cavalier from me, but: It seems like if there's an "unseeable Trump movie" that is going to immediately make people demand to see it.

☆ How to trade falling Tesla shares from here with lower risk using options

The movement in the patience-to-impatience investor pendulum for Elon Musk (and Tesla) has fully swung to impatience. I believe this initial negative reaction (down nearly 10%) is presenting a discount in Tesla (TSLA) shares and I want to use options to create short-term income while I wait for a short-term bounce. Tesla plans to introduce full self-driving (FSD) capabilities in California and Texas as early as Q1 2025, pending regulatory approvals. The trade Tesla is a stock that has become more intensely emotional as Musk is in the news daily. I want to capture the emotion in today's tape by utilizing a Risk Reversal options strategy which takes the premium I am collecting from the put option I am selling to finance and buy the call option.

☆ DNA reveals surprises trapped in teeth of ‘Tsavo man-eater’ lions

Thomas Gnoske, a collections manager at the museum, first spotted thousands of hairs trapped within the lions’ teeth when he examined their skulls in the 1990s. “Our analysis showed that the historic Tsavo lions preyed on giraffe, human, oryx, waterbuck, wildebeest, and zebra, and we also identified hairs that originated from lions. The Tsavo lions were maneless, like this adult male lion. The combined efforts opened a treasure trove of data about the lions’ prey as well as about the predators themselves. “It suggests that the Tsavo lions may have either traveled farther than previously believed, or that wildebeest were present in the Tsavo region during that time,” de Flamingh said.

He added, “Hungary also continues to disregard the concerns raised by its allies and partners about deepening its ties with China. Orbán has endorsed Trump, and Trump has touted the prime minister’s backing, even noting it during September’s presidential debate. GOP Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina restarted the U.S. Senate NATO Observer Group in 2018, co-chairing the group alongside Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire. This led Tillis and Shaheen to introduce a Senate resolution condemning Hungary’s democratic backsliding and its delay in allowing Sweden to join the alliance.

Attorneys for Donald Trump on Thursday argued against the release of additional evidence in the former president's federal election interference case in the lead up to Election Day. A spokesperson for the special counsel’s office declined to comment on the filing. Prosecutors from Smith's office had previously rebuffed assertions from Trump's attorneys that the government was "motivated by improper political considerations." The federal election case was upended after the Supreme Court’s immunity ruling which found that Trump has some protection from prosecution related to official acts. A judge overseeing that case last month granted the former president's request to further postpone his sentencing hearing until after Election Day.

Kennedy, to assassins' bullets, and who channeled her grief into raising her 11 children and lifetime of public service, died Thursday. At the time, he was dating her older sister, Patricia, according to an official biography at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum. Meanwhile, Robert F.
