Man pulled into MRI machine after he walked into an exam room wearing a chain necklace

WESTBURY, N.Y. (AP) — A man wearing a large chain necklace was pulled into an MRI machine in New York when he walked into the exam room wearing a large chain necklace, police said. The man, 61, had entered an MRI room while a scan was underway Wednesday afternoon at Nassau Open MRI. The machine's strong magnetic force drew him in by his metallic necklace, according to the Nassau County Police Department. Police said the incident 'resulted in a medical episode' that left the man hospitalized in critical condition. Authorities did not release his name and did not have an update on the man's condition on Friday. A person who answered the phone at Nassau Open MRI on Long Island declined to comment Friday. MRI machines 'employ a strong magnetic field' that 'exerts very powerful forces on objects of iron, some steels, and other magnetizable objects,' according to the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering, which says the units are 'strong enough to fling a wheelchair across the room.'

'Throw Yourself In With Zealous Passion,' Says Etsy CEO Josh Silverman, Who Went From Theater Major To Running A $5.3 Billion Company

"Throw yourself in with zealous passion," Etsy Inc. (NASDAQ:ETSY) CEO Josh Silverman told Pace University graduates during a commencement speech in May 19. Silverman urged graduates to find work they enjoy. He said over-delivering on every task sparks career-launching opportunities for today's most ambitious new hires. AI Reshapes Early Careers "For me, the most important thing has always been to start by throwing myself in with zealous passion to something that I liked," Silverman said, recounting how failed auditions at Brown University—where he majored in theater— pushed him toward public policy. Payrolls grew by 147,000 jobs in June and the unemployment rate slipped to 4.1%, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported. Meanwhile, recent college graduates—those aged 22 to 27—faced a jobless rate of 5.8% in early 2025, significantly higher than the general fourth-quarter average. Don't Miss: —with up to 120% bonus shares—before this Uber-style disruption hits the public markets Named a TIME Best Invention and Backed by 5,000+ Users, Kara's Air-to-Water Pod Cuts Plastic and Costs — Artificial intelligence is adding pressure. A May National Bureau of Economic Research paper found that generative AI eventually displaces workers when wage renegotiation fails, though it boosts short-term productivity. The World Economic Forum's Future of Jobs Report, released in early January, predicts AI and data processing will create 11 million roles and replace 9 million by 2030. Gen Z is already adapting. Many are adding micro-credentials instead of waiting on advanced degrees. Enrollments in generative-AI courses jumped 866% year over year, according to Coursera. Employers are responding with stipends for upskilling, a trend Coursera says improves retention and closes skill gaps. "I was an absolute sponge in meetings. I hung out by the water cooler, determined not to miss the most interesting conversations," Silverman said. Trending: $100k+ in investable assets? – no cost, no obligation. "Then life opened a totally unexpected door." That door led from answering phones for former Sen. Bill Bradley (D-NJ) after graduating from Brown University. Three years later, Bradley's chief of staff offered him a job at a boutique consulting firm. Silverman said the experience proved that "small rooms often lead to big doors." "Life shouldn't be full of adventure—it should be an adventure, and don't let that scare you. Embrace it," Silverman told the graduates. Those doors kept opening for him—he co-founded Evite, steered Skype, led consumer products at American Express (NYSE:AXP), and became Etsy's CEO in 2017. "Sitting here, you may not be able to clearly see the opportunities ahead, but you will seize them, shape them, and even create them," Silverman told graduates. For those stepping into a workforce transformed by AI, it was his final challenge—and a call to embrace the unknown with confidence.

Here Are My Top 2 Buffett Stocks to Buy Now

Key Points American Express is demonstrating resilience in a tough environment. Bank of America is a top consumer bank with a great dividend. 10 stocks we like better than American Express › The market is rebounding after plunging earlier this year, continuing its bull run and reaching new highs. Legendary investor Warren Buffett has made it clear many times what he thinks about bull markets: He's a contrarian investor who prefers to buy stocks when they're in bargain territory. Although he has found stocks to buy in what seems to be an expensive market, his holding company, Berkshire Hathaway, now holds more cash than ever, mostly socked away in U.S. Treasury bills. It's also been a net seller of stocks for 10 straight quarters. Two of his favorite stocks are my top two Buffett stocks right now. Here's why American Express (NYSE: AXP) and Bank of America (NYSE: BAC) look like good buys today. 1. American Express: New members, same great model Buffett recently joked that he's not a fan of young companies, and American Express is an excellent example, since it's celebrating its 150th anniversary this year. This is the kind of long-term relevance and stability he loves in a stock. It's in second place in terms of how long he has held it, and his second-largest position. The company has changed over time as its clientele and its demands have changed, and these days, it has a two-sided model of banking products and credit cards -- what's called a closed-loop system. Its highest-growth categories in terms of age are younger customers, and that should drive growth for the foreseeable future. All of these trends, plus its focus on an affluent consumer base, have led to its formidable performance as a financial services giant. It's been keeping that up despite inflation and macroeconomic pressure. Exclusive of a leap-year impact, revenue increased 9% year over year (currency neutral) in the 2025 first quarter, and cardmember spending was up 7%. Management expects revenue to increase 8% to 10% for the full year. Another distinctive feature in the company's model are its annual fees. Although these aren't exclusive to American Express, and not all of its cards feature them, they are a mainstay of the model, which offers a best-in-class rewards program for its mostly fee-based credit cards. The fees are designed to encourage spending via the rewards program, and they make up a substantial portion of the company's revenue. Fee income increased 18% year over year in the first quarter and accounted for 13% of total net revenue. Its resilience under pressure has played a big role in its outperformance during the past year, and its gains are almost triple the S&P 500's, 30% to 11%. It also pays a dividend that yields 1% at the current price. American Express is an excellent choice for a stock that offers value with a growing dividend and reliability over time. 2. Bank of America: The classic bank stock Bank of America, or BofA, is the second-largest bank by assets in the U.S. Buffett doesn't usually mention it by name, but there are traits he often talks about that fit BofA's model. It's a large bank that helps drive the economy, it's specifically consumer-focused, and it has excellent management that has steered it through challenging times. As a stock, it's cheaper than similar bank stocks, and it pays an attractive dividend. Bank of America is Berkshire Hathaway's third-largest position after getting bumped down from the second spot when Buffett sold some shares last year. Although the consumer focus remains its core segment, BofA has had success in its institutional business, and it demonstrated strength while interest rates soared. It's in even better shape now that interest rates are coming down. In the first quarter, revenue increased 6% to $27.4 billion, and earnings per share (EPS) increased 18% to $0.90. It added 250,000 new checking accounts, the 25th straight quarter of growth, and 1 million credit card accounts. It has a strong digital program that's attracting new business even though it's already a banking giant. Deposits increased for the seventh consecutive quarter, since a low in 2023, to nearly $2 trillion. On the global banking side, it maintained its third place in investment banking and deposits increased 12% from last year. As for the stock, it trades at a price-to-book ratio of 1.3, which is cheaper than similar banks, and its dividend yields 2.2% at the current price. Bank of America is a strong value candidate that's still growing, and it offers stability and reliability for a diversified portfolio. Do the experts think American Express is a buy right now?
