by Slim Randles Looking around at all the yard signs and hearing politicians tell us on television what a lying crook their competition is, I have to admit I miss Guv Reeve. Guv had a real first name, but I sure don’t recall it now, because this was back in the 1960s and 1970s in the high desert of California. He had his first name legally changed to Guv so everyone would know what he was all about. Every four years, he ran for governor. I worked for the Victor Valley Daily Press in Victorville, which is just 30 miles from Barstow, where everyone’s car breaks down on the way to Vegas. The other folks in the newsroom knew me as the “weirdo reporter” because if someone needed some serious couch time, they were pointed toward my desk. Guv was maybe in his early 50s when I met him.

GUEST By Bill DeVries A slew of recent announcements suggests that the self-driving cars of the future have arrived. Google sibling Waymo is rolling out paid autonomous taxi rides in San Francisco and Los Angeles. Elon Musk announced plans to unveil Tesla's robotaxi this October. This momentum is enough to make city planners hopeful for an imminent transformation. But widespread adoption of autonomous vehicles could be a long time coming. Before self-driving cars can live up to their potential, we need major changes to our physical infrastructure, laws, and the way we think. Currently, the United States sees about 40,000 traffic fatalities a year, mostly due to human error. Transportation emits more greenhouse gasses than any other sector, and traffic jams cost drivers countless hours. Autonomous vehicles paired with well-designed roads can help solve these problems. But to achieve full effectiveness, cities need to incorporate sensor-enabled "smart roads." These can...

By Merrill Matthews A record number of travelers are taking to the skies this year. In an era of expensive groceries, gas, food and rent, the last thing anyone wants is a massive increase in airfares. CNBNews Guest Opinion But that's precisely what travelers could experience if lawmakers push through new restrictions on prices, routes and even seat sizes. More airline regulation might sound appealing. But red tape always comes with a cost, often in higher prices but also in reduced access and convenience. Air travel used to be heavily regulated. Until the late 1970s, government officials set fares, routes and schedules for all interstate air travel. Prices were sky high, the industry operated inefficiently and relatively few people flew. Lawmakers decided they had to do something. Congress passed the Airline Deregulation Act in 1978. The law allowed airlines to determine their own routes and prices. The change unleashed competition...

by Dana DiFilippo, New Jersey Monitor August 14, 2024 The New Jersey Working Families Party has asked a state watchdog to investigate and terminate any public contracts involving South Jersey Democratic power broker George Norcross and the five business associates recently indicted with him for racketeering. In a letter sent Tuesday to acting state Comptroller Kevin D. Walsh, the group’s director, Antoinette Miles, said the corruption indictment should trigger “a strong enforcement response” to protect taxpayer money. She reminded Walsh that state officials, by law, can suspend and disqualify public contractors who have been indicted of any “offense indicating a lack of business integrity or honesty.” “This indictment represents one of the most significant state public corruption prosecutions in New Jersey history,” Miles wrote. “These defendants hold leadership roles in institutions that continue to receive millions of dollars annually in federal, state, and local taxpayer dollars.

A government plan to rule out innovation By Laura Schoppe The federal government may soon finalize guidance that could weaken ownership of intellectual property throughout the U.S. economy. This would affect a huge swathe of industries, among them biotechnology, clean energy, agriculture, and defense. CNBNews graphics More specifically, the new guidance would cause companies large and small, as well as their investors, to balk at licensing and developing promising new technologies -- with severe consequences for American innovation. Shepherding a promising idea from lab to marketplace is already a daunting task, as I know firsthand. My consulting firm, Fuentek, helps universities, non-profit research institutions, and companies turn early-stage discoveries into real-world inventions -- a laborious and risky process known as "tech transfer."
