TACOMA, Wash. (AP) — No one will face criminal charges following a two-car crash in Tacoma, Washington, that killed six Arizona residents in July, according to Pierce County prosecutors. A seventh occupant — a Phoenix man — survived with serious injuries but had no memory of the crash. Esparza was driving, and the Phoenix man who survived was in the front passenger’s seat. The driver and passenger in the BMW — a 42-year-old Tacoma man and his 40-year-old wife — were uninjured. There was insufficient evidence to prove the BMW driver acted with disregard for the safety of others, according to Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Elizabeth Dasse.

☆ How the G.O.P. Speaker Mess Has Divided N.Y. House Republicans
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-19 | by ( Nicholas Fandos | More About Nicholas Fandos | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

If there is one thing Representative Mike Lawler of New York wants his constituents to know these days, it is that his political party is an absolute mess. “Stuck on stupid,” he branded a band of hard-right Republicans who pulled Congress to the brink of a government shutdown. He said their ouster of Speaker Kevin McCarthy “undermined the will of the American people.” As for the fight over a replacement that has ground the House to a halt for two weeks and counting? His mounting frustration, voiced in interviews with reporters in the Capitol and on networks like CNN that are typically reviled on the right, is not merely an unusual display of bluntness. It is a risky gambit by one of the House’s most endangered Republicans to insulate himself from his own party as it careens, leaderless, toward another possible shutdown.

☆ Edward Bleier, Visionary Executive at Dawn of Cable TV, Dies at 94
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-19 | by ( Glenn Rifkin | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

A former journalist who began his career in newspapers and radio, Mr. Bleier was an innovator who foresaw industry-changing technologies and the need for fresh content to serve the emerging cable television market. At ABC and later at Warner Bros. Television, he gained a reputation for imaginative but also practical strategic thinking that helped usher in a new television era. From 1986 to 2000, he was president of a Warner Bros. division that developed basic cable networks such as Nickelodeon, MTV and The Movie Channel. As far back as 1961, while at ABC, Mr. Bleier saw a future for vintage Looney Tunes cartoons, animated shorts made by Warner Bros. and shown in movie theaters in the 1930s and ’40s. The move transformed Looney Tunes and similar cartoons into consistent profit-makers for both ABC and Warner Bros.

The research network aims to examine the lifetime impact of exposure in the womb to chemical contaminants in air, water and food. Both DDT and HCB contamination in people occurs “mainly through bioaccumulation in the food chain via fish, fish products, meat (and) dairy products,” Montazeri said. The July 2022 report also found PFAS exposure was sufficiently associated with decreased infant and fetal growth as well as decreased antibody response to vaccines in both adults and children. Pregnant people can take steps to reduce their exposure to various chemicals in commercial products, food and water. “Phthalates and phenols come from plastics and personal care products,” Montazeri said.

India's top court on Tuesday declined to legalize same-sex marriage and left it to parliament to decide, agreeing with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government that the legislature is the right forum to rule on the issue. "The United States supports marriage equality globally," a U.S. State Department spokesperson said. Chandrachud, said on Tuesday the Supreme Court "cannot make law. Asia, a continent where conservative values still dominate society in many nations, largely lags behind the West in accepting same-sex marriage. The U.S. State Department said it regularly engages with the Indian government on human rights concerns, including over LGBT rights.

☆ Tesla downshifts out of ludicrous mode
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-19 | by ( Jonathan Guilford | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +3 min

The Model Y maker’s gross and operating profit margins were once the envy of the entire American automotive industry. As Tesla began rolling more vehicles off the production line than it could sell, however, Musk repeatedly offered discounts to rev demand. Even setting aside tough financial comparisons because of the factory shutdowns needed to retool its best-selling vehicles, progress has been sluggish. Tesla’s gross margin at its core automotive business, adjusting for regulatory credits, has fallen nearly in half, to 16.3%, according to the latest quarterly results released on Wednesday. Tesla sold just a hair under half of all U.S. battery-powered rides in the third quarter, according to Cox Automotive, down from 75% in early 2022.

In 1993, her days of on-the-ground protest behind her — she’d long stopped handing out flyers at rallies — Prada and Bertelli created Milano Prada Arte, which later became the Fondazione Prada.

☆ Tesla's Cybertruck is almost here — but don't bet on it being affordable
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-19 | by ( Tim Levin | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +4 min

In 2021, all that information vanished from Tesla's website, leaving future customers in the dark about their dream truck's eventual price. AdvertisementAdvertisementMusk tempers expectations about an affordable CybertruckOn Tesla's earnings call on Wednesday, Musk attempted to dispel any expectations of an accessible Cybertruck — at least initially. The more trucks Tesla can churn out of its Texas Gigafactory, the cheaper it can sell each one for. And Musk said he foresees "enormous challenges" in ramping up Cybertruck production, mainly because the unusual truck requires new manufacturing processes. Tesla's website says the Cybertruck will offer up to 500 miles of range and hit 60 mph in a brisk 2.9 seconds.

But he eluded capture, even as dozens of people in Haiti and nearly a dozen in the United States were arrested in connection with the killing. Evidence indicates that Mr. Badio was involved in nearly every aspect of the conspiracy, Mr. Johnston said. The Justice Department in Washington has accused several South Florida businessmen of orchestrating the assassination so they could install a puppet as president and secure lucrative contracts with the Haitian government. No U.S. charges have been announced against Mr. Badio, who owns a house in Rockland County, N.Y. Phone records viewed by The New York Times show calls between Mr. Badio and Ariel Henry, now Haiti’s prime minister, both before and after Mr. Moise’s killing, each of which lasted several minutes.

In 1994, the 15-year-old Liz Ianelli was sent by her parents to the Family Foundation School in Hancock, N.Y., which claimed to treat her disruptive behavior. Now Ms. Ianelli is an activist and the author of a new memoir, “I See You, Survivor,” which details her ordeal. Some states exempt programs that claim to be religion-based from standards enforced on other child-caring facilities, while some states have few, if any, regulations on these programs. Because more than a dozen states allow spanking and paddling in schools, corporal punishment that would be illegal in prisons occurs in many of these programs. But until Ms. Hilton took up the cause, efforts to protect youth on the federal level had stalled.

"If interest rates remain high ... it's that much harder for people to buy the car. The price of the popular Model Y SUV was "almost unchanged" for consumers even after Tesla's price cuts, Musk said, accounting for higher financing costs. Reuters GraphicsPRICE CUTSTesla's aggressive price cuts this year have battered its gross margin even as it faces stiff competition in China from local automakers. Still, it stuck to its annual production target of 1.8 million cars, a sign that the price cuts were buoying demand to an extent. In the second quarter, Tesla had posted a gross margin of 18.2%.

ON TRACK FOR GOVT GDP TARGETThe recovery momentum suggests the government's full year 2023 growth target of around 5.0% is likely to be achieved. The key issue is what growth target the government will set and how much fiscal easing will take place." The statistics bureau said China would be able to hit the 2023 growth target if the fourth quarter growth tops 4.4%. Moody's Analytics has also raised its 2023 growth projection to 5% from 4.9%.

On a quarter-by-quarter basis, GDP grew 1.3% in the third quarter, accelerating from a revised 0.5% in the second quarter and above the forecast for growth of 1.0%. "It seems that all of that stimulus is finally beginning to take effect, with a broad beat from growth, retail sales, industrial production and unemployment," said Matt Simpson, senior market analyst at City Index in Brisbane. The economy faltered in the second quarter after a brief post-COVID recovery, dragged by a property downturn and huge debt due to a decades-long infrastructure binge. The recovery momentum suggests the government's full year 2023 growth target of around 5.0% is likely to be achieved. Growth of retail sales, a gauge of consumption, also beat expectations, rising 5.5% last month, and accelerating from a 4.6% increase in August.

Jordan's bid to become speaker appeared to be in deep trouble Wednesday, after he failed to secure the gavel by a wider margin than expected in the Tuesday vote. On that ballot, 20 Republicans publicly voted against the Judiciary Committee chairman, and 200 voted for him. Jordan's second bid already appeared doom to fail early Wednesday afternoon with at least nine Republicans voting against him so far, more than the congressman can afford to lose. Other Republicans voted for Lee Zeldin, who left Congress in January. "By empowering Patrick McHenry as Speaker Pro Tempore we can take care of our ally Israel until a new Speaker is elected."

He has responded with courage, wisdom and inspirational leadership — for all of us who reject solving problems through bloodshed and blind rage. Mr. Friedman articulates why a ground invasion of Gaza will only empower Israel’s enemies and ultimately lead to even worse conditions for Israel.

Earnings per share fell to 53 cents from 95 cents. Excluding stock-based compensation, Tesla’s adjusted net income fell to $2.32 billion, or 66 cents per share. On that basis, Tesla’s earnings fell short of analysts’ consensus estimate of 73 cents per share, according to FactSet. The discounts range from $4,400 on Tesla’s top-selling vehicles to as much as $20,000 on its most expensive models.

Ahead of Tesla's quarterly release, several Wall Street analysts have pulled back their performance forecasts. Wells Fargo cuts target price Wells Fargo trimmed its price target by $5 to $260 on Oct. 9, leaving its investment recommendation at equal weight.

MG — owned by SAIC Motor, China’s biggest automaker — is the largest Chinese EV player in Europe.

REUTERS/Anushree Fadnavis Acquire Licensing RightsNEW DELHI, Oct 17 (Reuters) - India's top court on Tuesday said it cannot legalise same-sex marriages, with the chief justice of the country saying making such a law is the domain of parliament. Chandrachud said there was a degree of "agreement and disagreement on how far we have to go" on same-sex marriages as he began reading his order. Two of the other four judges agreed with Chandrachud on the court not legalising same-sex marriages, making it a majority. The court ruling comes five years after a historic 2018 judgement when the Supreme Court scrapped a colonial-era ban on gay sex.
