ocregister.com/2024/04/16/anaheim-police-unveil-new-tesla-patrol-cars/
Quick Glance: Anaheim Police Introduce New Tesla Patrol Vehicles
- Anaheim police will soon start using electric Tesla Model Ys as patrol vehicles in a pilot program to keep more officers on the road.
- The Police Department has 83 patrol vehicles that are aging and breaking down more often. The need is critical as the patrol fleet is depleted, leading to insufficient vehicles for proper officer deployment.
- The six purchased Model Ys will be put in service after 16 officers are trained to use them. The electric vehicles will be charged at police stations with level-two chargers and refueled with Tesla Superchargers during 24-hour shifts.
- The Teslas are expected to be cheaper to operate but have a higher initial cost. The department plans to evaluate the performance of electric vehicles during the pilot program to determine potential future purchases.

bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-04-17/there-s-at-least-one-job-seeker-per-opening-in-five-us-states
Quick Glance: Outlook on Labor Markets in California, New Jersey, and Connecticut
- There’s now at least one unemployed job seeker for every vacancy in five US states, indicating a loosening of the labor market in parts of the country.
- Connecticut joined California, Nevada, New Jersey, and Washington in the list of states where the ratio of jobless people per opening is one or more. Meanwhile, Arizona and New York are nearing parity with a rate of 0.9, according to February data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics.
- The ratio of one or more in some states suggests a dynamic in the labor market being monitored by Federal Reserve officials for potential interest rate adjustments. This trend aligns with a gradual cooling and lower inflation.
- Nationally, the job market remains challenging, with job openings outnumbering unemployed individuals. The ongoing rate of 0.7 over 10 months implies the potential for every unemployed worker to find at least one available position.

Quick Glance: Ippei Mizuhara Remains Free Despite Bank Fraud Charges on $25,000 Bond
- Former interpreter for baseball star Shohei Ohtani from the Los Angeles Dodgers surrendered to authorities and later appeared before the U.S. District Court.
- Ippei Mizuhara turned himself in on Friday and was subsequently released on an unsecured $25,000 bond, commonly referred to as a signature bond. This arrangement allowed Mizuhara to secure his release without needing to provide any cash or collateral.
- United States Magistrate Judge Maria A. Audero also stipulated that Mizuhara must undergo treatment for his gambling addiction related to the sports betting scandal. Prosecutors alleged that he exploited his personal and professional connection with Ohtani to steal over $16 million from the player's bank account by occasionally posing as Ohtani to bankers to cover his gambling expenses.
- On Friday, Mizuhara only responded to the judge's inquiries by answering 'yes' when Audero asked him if he comprehended various aspects of the case and his bond conditions.
