Tesla offers cash rebate on top models in China
  + stars: | 2023-07-07 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
Tesla said it would offer new buyers of its Model Y and Model 3 vehicles a cash rebate of 3,500 yuan ($483) if they could cite a referral from an existing owner. Tesla also said new buyers would have free access to its Enhanced Autopilot driver-assistance system for 90 days. It is continuing an earlier offer announced in June of 7,000-yuan rebates to buyers of its more expensive Model S and Model X vehicles in China. A number of Tesla owners posted their referral codes online and invited others to use them on Friday, suggesting the cash rebate could be widely available for new buyers. Earlier this week, Tesla cut prices on the Model 3 and Model Y by between 3% and 4% in Japan.

"Today's numbers confirm the job market is still strong... and this report gives the green light to the Fed to raise rates," said Peter Cardillo, chief market economist at Spartan Capital Securities.

WASHINGTON, July 6 (Reuters) - California Governor Gavin Newsom on Thursday urged the Department of Justice to open criminal and civil investigations into Florida's transportation of migrants to Martha's Vineyard and Sacramento in recent months. "We urge the USDOJ to investigate potential violations of federal law by those involved in this scheme." Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who is seeking the Republican Party's 2024 presidential nomination, last year arranged to transport dozens of migrants to the Massachusetts vacation island of Martha's Vineyard. Florida also acknowledged a role in sending two flights of migrants to California last month, saying all of them traveled voluntarily. A referral for potential criminal prosecution for that flight is pending with the Bexas County District Attorney's Office and the California Department of Justice has opened criminal and civil investigations into the circumstances of the Sacramento flights.

It's been a few years since I worked with the person in question, but when I did work with them … it wasn't great. And if the person in question reached out asking for a referral to the job, what's the best way to handle that? Chances are, you'll end up looking worse than the person you're dishing about. Just don't like the person or don't feel like you can give them a recommendation? Remember, you are in no way obligated to give someone a referral just because you worked with them in the past.

REUTERS/Daniel Becerril/File PhotoWASHINGTON/MEXICO CITY, July 2 (Reuters) - U.S. and Mexican officials are discussing a new U.S. refugee program for some non-Mexican asylum seekers waiting in Mexico, four sources said, part of President Joe Biden's attempts to create more legal avenues for migration. The program would likely be open to Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan and Venezuelan refugees in Mexico, the sources said. Under another Biden program, Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans can request to enter the U.S. by air if they have U.S. sponsors. The initiative under discussion would be a "Priority Two" refugee program, the sources said, similar to one opened for Afghans in 2021. If the program encourages more migrants to enter Mexico, it could tax the country's already-strained resources for dealing with migrants, the official said.

The Republican-led House on Thursday quashed a move to quickly impeach President Biden but voted along party lines to open an investigation into his removal, as reluctant G.O.P. leaders bowed to a member of their hard-right flank who demanded to move forward with charges that his immigration policies constitute high crimes and misdemeanors. By a vote of 219 to 208, the House referred two articles of impeachment against Mr. Biden — one for abuse of power and one for dereliction of duty — to the Homeland Security and Judiciary Committees. Speaker Kevin McCarthy engineered the move, which allowed the impeachment articles to advance without officially endorsing them. He sought with the referral to defuse pressure from right-wing lawmakers to immediately begin the process of removing Mr. Biden from office, despite a lack of evidence of any wrongdoing.

According to the Association of Real Estate License Law Officials, more than three million people hold active real estate licenses in the U.S. That’s a lot of people with a range of experience and expertise. That’d be “knowledge,” says Philip Hordijk, founder of real-estate brokerage Leven Real Estate. A note of caution: Think hard before choosing a friend or family member to help with a real estate transaction. Search online directories—with careThere are plenty of third-party real estate sites that offer agent directories, too, including Realtor.com and Zillow. Real-estate broker vs. agentThere is also a differentiation between a real-estate agent and a real-estate broker.

The book is packed with stories of young women like her, girls whose efforts were documented but have not been popularized, and whose introductions leave you wanting more. After World War II came a generation of youthful reproductive rights activists. We meet Heather Tobis (later Booth), who, at 19, founded the legendary abortion referral service Jane out of her dorm room. She wanted change,” Kahn writes of the Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg, one of the most famous young voice of our own era. “Something to do; it might be very little but still it would be my own work.” Today, in the book’s words, stories of remarkable girls “abound.” But, as Kahn deftly shows, that’s been the story of these revolutionaries from the start.

And regulators could help monitor that such responses offer accurate and reliable information and resources. They’re underutilized already,” said John Ayers, an author of the study and a behavioral scientist at the University of California, San Diego. He said that now, while ChatGPT is still in development, is the time for public health experts and regulators to join forces with the chatbot’s developers to help curate responses to medical questions. The chatbot provided resources in two responses to a question about addiction, two responses for questions related to interpersonal violence and one response to a mental health-related question. “ChatGPT consistently provided evidence-based answers to public health questions, although it primarily offered advice rather than referrals,” the researchers wrote in their study.

Nicole Miranda made up to $400 a day speaking to men on the dating apps Meete and ToChat. She used to spend all her time on the apps, but now she markets them on TikTok for referrals. I was scrolling on TikTok one day when I came across a video of a girl talking about an app where guys pay to talk to you. Once I learned how to market the apps really well, I stopped hustling the guys for money because it was a lot of work and mentally exhausting. There are plenty of girls on the app still making thousands a month talking to guys, but for me, it's turned into an affiliate-marketing career.

CNN —Millions of children and teens live with obesity in the United States, and weight-loss surgery is becoming a more common way to treat it, new research shows. The trend held strong in the first two years of the Covid-19 pandemic, even as the number of weight-loss surgeries among adults dipped. Between 2020 and 2021, the number of weight-loss surgeries among youth jumped 19%. Childhood obesity is more prevalent among certain populations, including Black and Hispanic youth, according to the CDC. The new data shows that weight-loss surgery increased more than twice as much as average among these populations, up 42% among Back youth and 53% among Hispanic youth between 2020 and 2021.
However, age-related cognitive decline is quite different from Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias and should not be confused with those, experts say. During the course of the research, however, over 1,000 of the participants had an acute myocardial infarction, or heart attack. Past studies found linkThis isn’t the first study to find a connection between accelerated cognitive decline and heart attacks, Smith and Silbert noted. As in the new study, people with heart attacks or angina (chest pain) had annual rates of cognitive decline before the attack similar to those of people who never had a heart attack, but then experienced accelerated cognitive decline, they added. Possible explanations may include depression after having a heart attack, which has been linked to dementia, they said.

Insider found hundreds of Twitter profiles of people claiming to be Temu ambassadors. Experts say these accounts are likely created by individuals or organizations who want to exploit coupon codes to earn commission. A display name – that includes a nickname or a seemingly real name – alongside a couple of emoticons, and the words: "Temu Ambassador, "Ambassador of Temu," or "Campus Ambassador of Temu." An example of one of the many Twitter profiles we found. All of the profiles we checked shared a link to a $20 coupon to be used on Temu's site.
House Republicans successfully quashed an effort to hold a vote on expelling George Santos. But Republicans moved to refer it to the House Ethics Committee, effectively tabling it for now. Even House Republicans from New York — some of the strongest intraparty critics of Santos — voted for the referral resolution. There's also the political reality that McCarthy can ill afford to lose a reliable vote: Republicans hold the chamber by a four-vote margin, and McCarthy's grasp of the speaker's gavel depended on Santos in January. In the meantime, the criminally charged congressman will continue to serve as a loyal vote for Republicans.

He wanted a career that allowed him to help children as much as possible by prescribing meds and providing therapy. “When you can’t make sense of your despair, I can make sense,” says Bender, who has won several teaching and clinical-care awards. And, hopefully, help parents do so, too.”As he talked, more children were waiting at the hospital’s Psychiatric Emergency Services, six floors below. Most teenagers who experience suicidal thoughts don’t need to be hospitalized and most don’t kill themselves (about 2,800 did in 2021). “Ignore the social and family context at your peril,” says Brent, who has tracked the rise in adolescent suicide for years.
