In a recent live demonstration, Nyobolt’s battery was able to charge from 10% to 80% in just over four and a half minutes, far surpassing the 20 minutes it currently takes for some electric cars to charge using a fast charger like Tesla’s Supercharger. This development brings electric vehicles much closer to the quick refueling times of traditional…

In a landmark decision by the Supreme Court on Monday, former President Donald Trump was granted immunity from criminal prosecution for some actions taken during his presidency. This ruling is expected to further delay the trial on federal election subversion charges against him. The ruling, which was closely watched, was decided by a 6-3 margin, with the dissenting votes coming from the court’s liberal justices. Chief Justice John Roberts, writing on behalf of the majority, stated that “under our constitutional structure of separated powers, the nature of presidential power requires that a former president have some immunity from criminal prosecution…

CNN is set to air “Dr. Sanjay Gupta Reports: The Last Alzheimer’s Patient” on Sunday, July 7, at 8 p.m. ET. As the FDA prepares to make a decision on another expensive Alzheimer’s disease treatment, the nonprofit Alzheimer’s Association has finalized its new diagnostic criteria for the disease. In a significant change, doctors diagnosing Alzheimer’s are now being urged to rely on biomarkers such as beta amyloid and tau proteins detected through lab tests or brain scans, rather than traditional pen-and-paper memory tests. The new criteria aim to detect the disease in its earliest stages, even before symptoms appear. This…

Dylan Groenewegen, riding for Jayco-AlUla, made quite the statement on Stage 3 of the Tour de France with his unique Batman-style beak. The Dutch cyclist arrived at the start in Plaisance, Italy with a sunglasses extension that covered his nose, prompting reactions on social media and in the Webpressnews commentary box. Commentator Carlton Kirby speculated on the purpose of Groenewegen’s unusual accessory, suggesting that it may have been for aerodynamics or sun protection. Kirby mentioned that some cyclists with larger noses could experience glare from sweat beading up on the end of their nose. However, Dani Rowe, a former gold…

The Department of Education has announced that roughly 3 million borrowers will have their student loan payments paused after federal courts blocked parts of the SAVE (Saving on a Valuable Education) repayment plan. President Joe Biden launched this plan last year to lower monthly bills for borrowers. Two groups of Republican-led states filed lawsuits challenging the plan, leading to temporary injunctions issued by Missouri and Kansas judges. These injunctions halt portions of the plan that would have lowered payments by as much as half for some borrowers and provided a faster route to debt forgiveness. Currently, all 8 million borrowers…

Last year, Jennifer Hernandez was shocked to receive notice that her Houston home mortgage payments would jump by about $2,000 per month. She had refinanced her home loan in 2016 using an adjustable-rate mortgage loan, which initially had a low introductory rate for a fixed period. As many homeowners like Hernandez are now experiencing, adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs) can offer temporary relief from higher mortgage rates, but also come with the risk of rates adjusting periodically based on market conditions. For thousands of Americans who took out ARM loans five years ago, before interest rates rose to a four-decade high, the…

This indicates a surge in domestic and international demand for Chinese goods. However, an official government survey released on Sunday showed a contraction among larger, state-owned manufacturers, highlighting the uneven recovery in the world’s second-largest economy. The Caixin manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) reported a rise to 51.8 in June, up from 51.7 in May.
