With so many people working from home, restaurant traffic is down but grocery stores are getting plenty of business. But according to Business Insider, Whole Foods had 21% fewer visitors across its stores on October 4 compared to the same day last year. That flies in the face of other grocery store chains, where traffic is bouncing back much faster. At Kroger's, for example, business was only down 2%. A Whole Foods spokesperson said stores normally get a lot of lunchtime trade from office workers, who are now working from home. Sales of packaged sandwiches and salads have fallen 75%. For every five in-store shoppers Whole Foods Markets had last October, it now only has four.

To celebrate this special birthday and as a tribute to its history, the Scorpion is launching the new Abarth 695 75° Anniversario edition, available in only 1,368 units to pay homage to its well-known 1.4 T-Jet engine, with a symbolic reference to the engine’s capacity: 1.368cc. The engine is supercharged with a Garrett GT 1446 turbocharger, delivering 180 HP of power and a torque of 250 Nm at 3,000 rpm. The maximum speed is 225 km/h, and it accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.7 seconds. The exterior immediately catches the eye. For the first time ever, a scorpion covers the entire roof and pops out against the total black livery thanks to the contrast with its golden body. Inside, the designers created an exclusive and charming ambience, as exemplified by the high-quality black Alcantara dashboard and the new Sabelt specific carbon seats.
