A Look at How Rewriting the Rules to Net Neutrality could Change the Internet

By |April 12th, 2017|Categories: Economy, Entertainment, Featured, National News, Tech News, TED Talks, United States, World News, YouTube|Tags: , , , , , , , , |

Net neutrality and regulating the Internet continues to become more important on a national and international level. During the past conflicts with net neutrality within the United States companies have folded under consumer demand. A recent development on Internet privacy is the overturning of the regulations that the Obama administration had put in place to protect Web users. In another poor move to kick off the first 100 days, the Trump administration has now signed into law giving Internet providers more access to their consumers' information. The New York Times reported: “This is a repeal with no replacement.” - Danny Weitzner,

The amount of methane and greenhouse gases being released into the atmosphere continues to build as our annual temperatures continue to increase above average speed. Climate change is real, and it is how we each decide to adapt to the changing climate that will lay foundation for future generations. When problems become solutions real progress takes place. Farmers in California have found a way to turn their cow manure into fuel for their farm. KAWL.org reported from Bob Giacomini’s family dairy farm north of Point Reyes Station: “We capture the methane, it’s pumped off and pumped up to run the

Startups and job growth continues to build momentum in 2017. President Trump has made it one of his top priorities, but with a list of current other issues, it often becomes a back burner problem. The United States continues to drive innovation in different markets with our advanced technology in comparison to other developing countries. That technology gives each person an opportunity to better their lives each day. In the first TED Talk below featuring Bill Gross, he covers data from different startups, and found that 42% of the 200 businesses he surveyed excelled when their product had proper

Biotechnology Continues to Modify Genetics with T Cells

By |December 26th, 2016|Categories: Economy, Environment, Featured, Health, National News, Politics, Tech News, TED Talks, YouTube|Tags: , , , , , , |

Biotechnology is still a relatively new concept for the general public that utilizes technical methods to diagnose problematic cells in the body. A quick definition of the word: 'At its simplest, biotechnology is technology based on biology - biotechnology harnesses cellular and biomolecular processes to develop technologies and products that help improve our lives and the health of our planet. We have used the biological processes of microorganisms for more than 6,000 years to make useful food products, such as bread and cheese, and to preserve dairy products.' Despite having financial setbacks in 2016, the biotech industry continues to

Amazon, the Seattle-based technology company, steamrolls through the negativity of the past election, right through climate change, and arrives in Virgina to change the world with five new solar farms. When Amazon created two wind farms in Ohio, I was excited, but to see them work directly with the eastern seaboard is an exciting piece of progression behind the clean energy movement. This level of progression is summerized by Amazon and Business Wire: 'By supporting 260MW of solar generation capacity in Virginia, Amazonbecomes the largest corporate backer of solar projects east of the Mississippi River.'  They also spoke with Governor
