TECHNOLOGY IMPROVING OUR LIVES Enjoying a rural lifestyle no longer has to mean you have to give up the kind of Internet connectivity urban dwellers have, thanks to today’s out-of-this-world satellite systems. (NAPSI)—For many in the American countryside, signals from space have been most welcome for some time. That’s because, in many places, that’s the best way to get Internet service: via satellite. Then and Now While early systems may have been only a little better than dial-up, enormous improvements in high-capacity satellites mean they can deliver faster speeds and more data at a more affordable price. How It Works Satellite Internet doesn’t rely on terrestrial connections. That’s why it can keep people connected every day and even during disasters when other systems may be down. Instead, the Internet signal is delivered to a connection, which then sends the signal via radio waves up to the satellite over 20,000 miles...

Coming off a successful hunting season where additional Sunday hunting opportunities were permitted in Pennsylvania for the first time, the state game commission will have a discussion about expanding Sunday hunting for the 2021 season during its upcoming January meeting.

by Lesley Fair Attorney, Division of Consumer and Business Education, FTC There’s a new coronavirus-related scam making the rounds, but this time the crooks are targeting small businesses. It starts with an email that claims to come from the “Small Business Administration Office of Disaster Assistance.” It says you’re eligible for a loan of up to $250,000 and asks for personal information like birth date and Social Security number. Let’s do a CSI-style investigation to spot clues that the email is a fake. Clue #1. You got an email or phone call out of the blue that claims to be from the IRS, the Social Security Administration, or – in this case – the Small Business Administration. The FTC has warned about government imposter scams like this. Clue #2. You were told that you’re automatically eligible for a big loan. Real lenders never do this. Clue #3. You’re asked to...

of Economic Impact Payment (EIP) checks and cards January 22, 2021 by Cristina Miranda Division of Consumer and Business Education, FTC The US Department of the Treasury and the IRS are working hard to get a second round of Economic Impact Payments (EIP) to people. You might have already gotten your payment direct deposited into your bank account. That started on December 29th. You might have gotten a check in the mail. But, like last time, some people will get their payment in the mail on an EIP VISA debit card. Don’t be surprised if the way you get this second round of payments is different than the first time. Whichever way you get your payment, it’s all money the government wants you to have, and quickly. So: if you qualify for an Economic Impact Payment, look at your bank account for a direct deposit, keep an eye out for...

Newswise — Blood draws are no fun. They hurt. Veins can burst, or even roll — like they’re trying to avoid the needle, too. Oftentimes, doctors use blood samples to check for biomarkers of disease: antibodies that signal a viral or bacterial infection, such as SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19, or cytokines indicative of inflammation seen in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and sepsis. These biomarkers aren’t just in blood, though. They can also be found in the dense liquid medium that surrounds our cells, but in a low abundance that makes it difficult to be detected. Until now. Engineers at the McKelvey School of Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis have developed a microneedle patch that can be applied to the skin, capture a biomarker of interest and, thanks to its unprecedented sensitivity, allow clinicians to detect its presence. The technology is low cost, easy for a...

Jan 22, 2021 | Close readers of the Weekly Wastebasket will only need to stretch their memories to last Friday (which seems to have been a month ago, we agree) to recall that Taxpayers for Common Sense made “Four Point Six” recommendations for the Biden Administration on various federal agencies. These were a series of actions we suggested the administration could immediately implement to start off on the right fiscally-balanced foot. You don’t remember them all? Well, a lot has happened in the last week, so we’ll pause while you refresh your memory on our many common sense recommendations.

Now read this January 20, 2021 letter to the incoming head of the OMB from the Chairs of the House Appropriations and Budget Committees. Sound similar? We, literally, could have drafted this letter for Reps....

The New Jersey Business & Industry Association is testifying today in strong support of a bill that will direct Gov. Phil Murphy to develop and implement a county-based mitigation plan to allow businesses to operate during a pandemic. Citing specific regional reopening approaches currently applied in New York and Pennsylvania in testimony submitted to the Senate Commerce Committee, NJBIA Vice President of Government Affairs Christopher Emigholz said the intent of bill S-3093 is to move New Jersey away from its one-size-fits-all model to benefit areas of the state less impacted by COVID-19. “The entire economy and all of our tax revenue would not have to suffer as much with this scalpel approach instead of a blunter statewide edict, while public health will still be appropriately protected where necessary,” Emigholz said. NJBIA has been advocating for a regional approach to safe reopenings since the summer, when the coronavirus curve had flattened,...

The First Dose of the Pfizer Vaccine Gives About 50% COVID Protection, Not 91% Claimed by Those Who Want to Speed Up Immunization 15-Jan-2021 8:55 AM EST, by Newswise An article published by The Sun and another article in The Evening Standard reported that the Pfizer/BioNTech coronavirus vaccine gives "91 per cent protection" from COVID-19 after just the first dose.

Professor David Salisbury, in charge of immunization programs at the Department of Health until 2013, is quoted as saying, “If you look at the New England Journal of Medicine paper about the...

Steve Miller / RealClearInvestigations/THE CENTER SQUARE On Interstate 59, a neon billboard used by the Alabama Department of Public Health advises motorists to get their flu and pneumonia vaccines. Placards placed atop gas pumps around the state also promote the flu Gloucestercitynews.net files vaccine. But the vaccine that will quell COVID-19, a virus that has killed 400,000 nationwide, crippled businesses and prompted governments to force onerous restrictions on the public, gets no mention.

As individuals around the globe bring issues to light of the cryptocurrency upset, venture specialists are lining up to communicate their perspectives. As of late, defenders of digital currencies have been anticipating various refusals of gravity. It's normal to see a specialist on television, which is the reason they think the bitcoin will hit anyplace between $ 250,000 and $ 500,000 in the following two years.
