Who Buys Electric Cars In California — And Who Doesn’t?
1 Traffic & Transit Though ownership is disproportionate, interest in electric cars is high across all incomes and races, according to a 2019 survey. CalMatters , News Partner Posted Reply In Atherton, one of the nation’s richest towns, giant oaks and well-manicured hedges surround gated mansions owned by some of Silicon Valley’s most prominent billionaires, basketball stars, tech executives and venture capitalists.

First female police officer in rural Michigan town says she was relentlessly harassed and assaulted by fellow cops
Teresa Williams thought she landed her dream job in Iron Mountain, Michigan, becoming the first female officer in the history of the rural town's police department. But she was relentlessly harassed and assaulted during her four-and-a-half year tenure there and ultimately forced to resign, according to a federal lawsuit Williams filed last month against three officers in the Iron Mountain Police Department.

A change of messenger at Goldman Sachs For nearly a decade, Jake Siewert led Goldman Sachs ’s post-crisis efforts to shed its image as one of Wall Street’s most mysterious, and maligned, money machines. We’re the first to report that he plans to announce his departure later today. Mr. Siewert joined Goldman as its communications chief in 2012, bringing both political connections — he was a top aide to Tim Geithner when he was Treasury secretary, and spent eight years in the Clinton administration, including as White House press secretary — and experience as a senior executive at Alcoa. (Mr. Siewert’s wife, Christine Anderson, is the global head of external relations at Blackstone.) He did not have an easy job: The day after his hiring was announced, a former Goldman banker published a now-famous Op-Ed, “ Why I Am Leaving Goldman Sachs ,” accusing the firm of fostering a “toxic and destructive” environment. As he departs, disgruntled junior bankers at the firm have … [Read more...] about Goldman Sachs’s Top Image Maker Is Leaving
