This Apple 2025 MacBook Air With M4 Chip Holds Its Memorial Day Price for Now
There's been a sighting of one of the rarest retail birds of all — a big sale on a brand-new Apple laptop. It's happening at Amazon, and it features the 13-inch model of the 2025 MacBook Air — an M4-powered dynamo — for just $892. How good of a deal is this? It's less than the price of the 2020 MacBook Air.
It doesn't get any newer than this version of ther MacBook Air, which has only been on the market for just over 2 months. That means all of Apple's latest tech is present and accounted for — Apple Intelligence, an 18-hour battery life, 12MP Center Stage camera, WiFi 6E, and much more, all driven by Apple's industry-best M4 processor chip, which is up to twice as fast as the M1 chip and a staggering 23x faster than the fastest of Apple's Intel chips.

Florida lawmakers reach budget agreement, set to finalize $900 million tax cut plan
Nearly a month after leaving the Capitol without passing a budget, House and Senate leaders said Friday night they had reached an agreement that will clear the way for lawmakers to begin hammering out details of a spending plan Tuesday. House Speaker Daniel Perez, R-Miami, and Senate President Ben Albritton, R-Wauchula, issued memos that indicated they expect to pass a budget for the 2025-2026 fiscal year on June 16. The memos came after weeks of behind-the-scenes talks aimed at trying to kick-start the conference negotiating process. Key financial priorities The memos said the agreement includes a $900 million tax cut through eliminating a tax on commercial leases, a longtime priority of business lobbyists. It also includes what the memos described as $350 million in "permanent sales tax exemptions targeted towards Florida families," $250 million in debt reduction and $750 million in annual payments into a state rainy-day fund. "In total, the framework set forth in these allocations provides for a fiscally responsible, balanced budget that reduces state spending, lowers per capita spending, and reduces the growth of state bureaucracy," Albritton wrote in his memo to senators. "The budget authorizes early payoff of state debt, accounts for significant, broad-based tax relief, and builds on historic state reserves for emergencies." Conference committees will start meeting Tuesday to negotiate details of the different parts of the budget, such as education, health care and criminal justice. Unresolved issues will go Thursday to House Budget Chairman Lawrence McClure, R-Dover, and Senate Appropriations Chairman Ed Hooper, R-Trinity, for further negotiations. The fiscal year will start July 1, which, if a budget passes June 16, will give Gov. Ron DeSantis two weeks to use his line-item veto authority. Past disagreements and new framework The House and Senate were unable to reach agreement on a budget before the scheduled May 2 end of the annual legislative session because of differences about tax cuts and spending levels. Lawmakers extended the session, but House and Senate leaders remained at odds as they worked behind the scenes. The House in April approved a plan that called for cutting the state sales-tax rate from 6 percent to 5.25 percent, which would have totaled roughly $5 billion. But the Senate did not go along and pitched a plan that included providing a sales-tax exemption on clothes and shoes valued at $75 or less, sales-tax "holidays" and trimming the commercial-lease tax. DeSantis, meanwhile, called for cutting property taxes and criticized the House's plan for reducing the sales-tax rate. Perez and Albritton indicated on May 2 that they had reached a "framework" that would include $2.8 billion in tax cuts, including reducing the sales-tax rate. But that later blew up, with Perez publicly accusing Albritton of backing out of the deal. But Albritton said senators had raised concerns that a cut in the sales-tax rate would not be "meaningful, felt, or seen by families and seniors when compared with other available options." The memos released Friday night did not provide details of the $350 million in sales-tax exemptions that are included in the latest agreement. They also did not mention property-tax cuts.

New Jersey kindergartners step into the role of doctors, nurses with teddy bears as patients
It was a different kind of field trip for a few kindergarten students in Camden on Friday: seeing inside an ambulance and then inside a hospital for Cooper Hospital's annual Teddy Bears to the Rescue event. Here, teddy bears become patients, and the medical staff guide the students through diagnosing and treating them using real medical tools and equipment — things like x-rays and heart imaging. CBS Philadelphia CBS Philadelphia CBS Philadelphia "This helps to increase their familiarity to get comfortable with who they might be seeing in the event they ever have to come back," Max Kursh from Cooper Hospital said. "We help to ease their anxiety around coming to the hospital." Six-year-old Messiah named his teddy bear Blueberry. "He went outside without a coat, and then he got sick," Messiah said. This group imagined all kinds of situations. "She was riding her scooter without a helmet then she fell off then she broke her leg," Sylee said. CBS Philadelphia CBS Philadelphia CBS Philadelphia Physical therapist Delia Tarantino also had the opportunity to explain why wheelchairs and crutches are sometimes necessary. "The coolest part is just getting to work with the kids, getting them comfortable being here, and teaching them what we do everyday," Tarantino said. Along with some prevention lessons, like swimming safety, the students also learned about staying healthy and away from the hospital.
