‘Gone With the Wind' star Ann Rutherford's ‘one-of-a-kind' Beverly Hills estate hits market for $42M
'Gone With the Wind' star Ann Rutherford's former 1930s Beverly Hills estate has hit the market for $42 million. The actress – who played Carreen O'Hara, one of the sisters of Scarlett O'Hara (Vivien Leigh) in the iconic 1939 movie – and her husband, television producer William Dozier, lived at the French Revival-style residence, known as Rutherford House, for decades, according to the Los Angeles Times. Dozier was known for creating the 1960s TV series 'Batman' and 'The Green Hornet,' while Rutherford also starred opposite Mickey Rooney in the 'Andy Hardy' film series during the 1930s and 1940s. During their tenure at the residence, Rutherford and Dozier frequently hosted celebrity weddings at the home, which they nicknamed Greenway Chapel, according to the LA Times. Built in 1938, the estate was designed by renowned architect Paul R. Williams, who created homes for a number of Hollywood legends, including Frank Sinatra, Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz, and Barbara Stanwyck. 3 The actress lived at the French Revival-style residence, known as Rutherford House, for decades.

President's latest interview gives US automakers much-needed boost
It's no secret that the U.S. auto industry has become dominated by foreign brands over the past few decades. While General Motors still has the highest market share at 17% and Ford ranks third with a 13% market share, foreign models from Asia round out the top five, according to Cox Automotive data. Toyota ranks second with 15% U.S. market share, while Korean brand Hyundai ranks fourth with 11%. Toyota's fellow Japanese brand, Honda, is fifth in the market, with 9%. Related: Toyota makes surprising move to beat Tesla in key market Despite its home-court advantage, Stellantis ranks sixth with an 8% share. Many ingredients have played a part in the downfall of the once-mighty American auto manufacturing industry, including quality issues and an eroding manufacturing base. But the rise of the foreign brands, especially the Japanese ones, is also complicated. Japanese auto manufacturers produced 3.28 million vehicles in the U.S. Toyota sold over 2.3 million vehicles in the U.S. in 2024, a 3.7% year-over-year increase. Between April 2024 and March 2025, the company built 1.96 million units in the U.S. Honda, Subaru, Nissan, Mazda, and Toyota combined employed nearly 75,000 manufacturing employees in the U.S. last year. Image source: Dozier/Getty Images Japanese automakers are not only selling and building cars in this country, they're also investing heavily. Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association (JAMA) says its members have spent $4.6 billion on research and development. This bit of nuance doesn't seem to matter to President Donald Trump, as he sounds intent on keeping 25% tariffs on Japanese auto imports in place. "They won't take our cars, and yet we take millions and millions of their cars into the United States. It's not fair, and I explained that to Japan, and they understand it," Trump said in an interview on Fox News' "Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo." Nikkei Asia points out that Japan already has a no-tariff policy on imported passenger cars. Related: Detroit Big 3 benefit from auto tariffs now, but time is running out Sounding a bit more measured, President Trump offered an alternative, seemingly admitting that the idea of Japan taking U.S. cars they don't want is ridiculous. "And we have a big deficit with Japan, and they understand that, too. Now we have oil. They could take a lot of oil, they could take a lot of other things," he said. Trump says that Japan's non-tariff policies, like strict fuel economy standards, are the reason U.S. automakers have only a 2% market share in their country, while they have a 38% market share here. President Trump also said he does not intend to postpone his July 9 negotiating deadline before his administration resumes its trade war. The iShares MSCI Japan ETF (EWJ) , which tracks Japanese autos, was down 0.5% in market trading Monday, along with the rest of the auto industry. Everyone in Detroit, from Big 3 CEOs Jim Farley and Mary Barra, to United Auto Workers union President Shawn Fain, has sung the praises of Trump's auto tariffs. "We're in a triage situation," Fain told ABC earlier this year. "Tariffs are an attempt to stop the bleeding from the hemorrhaging of jobs in America for the last 33 years." The U.S. auto industry, including manufacturing and dealerships, employed over 2 million Americans last year. Over 1 million of those jobs were in vehicle and parts manufacturing. The U.S. auto industry peaked in the 1970s, producing about 10 million vehicles annually. Despite the population growing by more than 60% since then, car manufacturers produced just 10.6 million vehicles in the U.S. in 2023. In June, GM announced a $4 billion investment in U.S. manufacturing. Ford revealed that the tariffs will shave at least $1.5 billion off the company's EBITDA this year, but CEO Jim Farley also praised President Trump's handling of tariffs. Ford "supports the administration's goal to strengthen the U.S. economy by growing manufacturing."

"Last year, we assembled over 300,000 more vehicles in the U.S. than our closest competitor. That includes 100% of all our full-size trucks," CEO Jim Farley said during the company's last earnings call. "In this new with the largest U.S. footprint will have a big advantage, and boy, is that true for Ford," he added. "It puts us in the pole position."

'We know it is hard out here for our seniors,' City Councilman Jason Dozier said. This includes seniors like Coretha Easterling, who sometimes struggles to make ends meet. 'Some seniors don't know,' Easterling said. On Thursday, they were brought to the right place. 'We know a lot of our seniors have to rely on Social Security, and are navigating the high cost of living and energy costs, so we're trying to bring the resources to them so they can weather this storm,' Councilman Dozier said.

There was also information on affordable housing, getting more out of Medicare, Social Security, veterans' benefits and much more. Dozier said the seniors who looked after us now need someone to look after them. Easterling said they just need to know where to go. 'It helps the seniors to know what they can get or information they need to know,' Easterling said. The gathering at Atlanta City Hall was the first of four planned to help local seniors.

Millennials have lived through economic uncertainty before. They're not nostalgic for more.
Millennials are worried they are about to experience a 'once-in-a-lifetime' recession. Again. Dire economic downturns are supposed to be rare, but millennials — defined by the Pew Research Center as those born between 1981 and 1996 — have already had several recessions during formative stages of their lives, from the dot-com bubble burst when most were children, to the Great Recession as they entered the workforce after college, to the Covid-19 pandemic when they were trying to settle into their careers. Once dubbed the ' unluckiest generation,' millennials have postponed major milestones during past recessions. A significant slice of them graduated college between 2007 and 2009 and struggled to find jobs, which led them to delay buying homes, getting married, and making major purchases, such as cars. Then, after the pandemic led to another sharp recession, some millennials, contending with student loans and rising costs of living, decided to rethink having kids. Now, as the Trump administration's tariffs program roils global markets, raising fears of another recession, the millennial cohort of approximately 29- to 44-year-olds is expressing their frustration and fatigue over the financial instability that has haunted so much of their lives. Some have posted videos on TikTok joking about how they have little advice for Gen Zers who may have to navigate their first possible recession. Others have shared how they are preparing for economic turmoil. Most are just going on social media to trade memes and jokes. 'It's out of our control, and so why not handle it with a sense of humor and joke about it?' said Jeremy Dozier, 38, a real estate agent in Los Angeles County, California, who has posted funny TikTok videos as a way to express his disdain for the current economic situation. Dozier knows how painful recessions can be: He graduated college in 2008 and was forced to take temp jobs out of college because he couldn't find full-time work during the Great Recession. By the time the pandemic hit, he had been in a steady job for a decade, but then was laid off. 'Every time we start to get ahead or it starts to feel like, 'OK, things are going to work out,' the other shoe drops,' he said. TikTok has been an outlet for him. In a video that Dozier posted in February, he pretends to sob as the song 'I Dreamed a Dream' from 'Les Misérables.' plays. The caption to the video reads: 'Millennials preparing to live through their 4th recession before hitting 40.' The video racked up 23,000 likes and hundreds of comments. For young people, sarcasm and memes have become increasingly popular coping mechanisms, said Pamela Aronson, a sociology professor in the Department of Behavioral Sciences at the University of Michigan-Dearborn. 'These social media arenas represent a shared cultural understanding, and these then get spread across groups who are connected to each other digitally,' she said. ''It both reflects and transforms how we think about things.' Not all members of this generation have fared poorly during past economic uncertainty. A wave of millennials were able to purchase houses during the pandemic. And concern about another recession is not limited to only their age group, said Jean Twenge, a professor of psychology at San Diego State University and author of the 2023 book 'Generations,' which posits that technology, not major events in history, is the primary cause of generational differences. 'Millennials went through these horrible economic times at the beginning of their adult lives, then built everything back up, did really well, and now are rightfully concerned that if there's another recession, that they could lose it all again,' Twenge said. But, she added: 'I do think this is something that is coming up for people of all ages.' There was some relief Wednesday afternoon, as stocks soared after President Donald Trump announced that he would pause for 90 days higher tariff rates on dozens of trading partners. John Sabelhaus, a visiting fellow in economic studies at the Washington-based think tank the Brookings Institution, pointed out that 'the overall strategy of the current Congress could be extremely disruptive' still and noted that a financial downturn at this time would be especially damaging to millennials. 'Millennials are exactly at that age where they are building businesses, and they're trying to make these businesses work,' he said. 'It's always risky, and when you throw in a lot of macroeconomic risk, it just makes it that much worse.' Christie Cronan, a millennial content creator in Central Florida who has been posting about recession fears, said she feels like her videos have brought comfort to others in her generation. 'Everyone feels validated, that that this is what people are expecting, that we are in an economic downturn of some sort — whether they want to call it a recession or not,' she said. Dozier, the millennial in California, said posting lighthearted TikToks has prompted other people to open up about their economic anxiety. He said people have shared what they are doing to prepare for financial stress, with some saying they are growing their own food and others commenting that they bought an extra freezer so they can try to stockpile frozen items now before tariffs hit. 'While people in the comments are talking about the struggles they're going through, it's all kind of handled with a sense of humor and a sense of community,' he said. 'We're going to weather the storm together.'
