Travelers Institute and Cambridge Mobile Telematics Release Educational Guide to Help Curb Distracted Driving

YourUpdateTV

The Travelers Institute, the public policy division of The Travelers Companies, Inc. (NYSE: TRV ), recently released “ Every Second Matters®: Reducing Distracted Driving, One Voice at a Time,” an educational guide published in partnership with Cambridge Mobile Telematics (CMT), the world’s largest telematics company. “The guide highlights new statistics that show how risky driving behaviors, such as speeding and texting behind the wheel, accelerated during the pandemic,” said Joan Woodward, President of the Travelers Institute and Executive Vice President of Public Policy at Travelers. “Throughout the report, we provide an eye-opening account of the dangers of distraction and arm drivers with important resources for staying safe on the road.” The Every Second Matters guide outlines steps motorists can take to improve their driving habits, including: · Adopt a professional driver’s mindset: Hands on wheel, eyes on road, mind on driving. · Don’t be a distraction: According to the 2022 Travelers Risk Index, nearly 80% of drivers make or take calls while driving, so avoid becoming the distraction – don’t call or text employees, family members and friends while they are on the road. · Activate “Do Not Disturb”: Use this setting while driving to silence notifications and avoid distractions. · Speak up: Let risky drivers know of their dangerous behavior and encourage others to do the same when they are passengers in a car. · Get feedback: Consider enrolling in a telematics program that provides feedback as well as incentives for driving safely. The report also highlights the benefits of telematics programs. Data from CMT shows that drivers who open their telematics app more than three times a week are 65% safer and 57% less distracted than those who don’t. “Telematics programs are changing behaviors and reducing distractions on the road,” said Ryan McMahon, Senior Vice President of Strategy at CMT. “By joining a telematics program, drivers are learning about their habits and improving roadway safety for all. Consumers are seeing these benefits, and telematics programs are more popular than ever as a result.” Other key findings from CMT include: · More than 35% of car trips involve some type of phone distraction. · More than 35% of distracted driving happens over 50 mph. · The most distracted drivers are 2.2 times more likely to crash than the least distracted drivers. Through the Every Second Matters distracted driving education initiative, the Travelers Institute publishes materials and hosts events that encourage drivers, passengers, cyclists and pedestrians to play an active role in changing roadway behaviors.

Comcast Invests in Chico, Calif. Launching Three New Lift Zones to Help Increase Digital Equity in the Region

Comcast California

Comcast today announced the opening of a new Lift Zone at The Jesus Center and one in The Torres Community Shelter in Chico to provide free WiFi access to families across the area with an additional Lift Zone location opening at The Jesus Center early next year. As part of its larger digital equity initiative, Comcast also announced donations totaling $75,000. The Jesus Center received $50,000 to help their residents and those of the Pallet Shelter with digital literacy training and work readiness skills, and the Torres Community Shelter received $25,000 to provide digital literacy training to unhoused adults and seniors. Comcast’s Lift Zones program provides free WiFi, powered by Comcast Business, to enable students, seniors, families, and community members to get online and fully participate in the digital economy. With these new locations, Comcast now offers three Lift Zones in the City of Chico — and a total of over 150 Lift Zones throughout its California service area. “Helping to close the digital divide and address digital equity remain top priorities here in Chico,” said Mayor Andrew Coolidge, of Chico, CA. “Our city and our region have become more dependent on broadband to learn, find work and healthcare services and many other aspects of our daily life. Comcast’s new Lift Zones along with their significant financial investments into our city, will create opportunity for individuals, families, and seniors in our community.” “Comcast’s significant investments in our shelters and our communities will help us expand not only our digital literacy efforts but our workforce development initiatives and shows their commitment to providing the necessary tools and resources to those who will benefit most from these life-changing opportunities,” said Amber Abney-Bass, Executive Director of The Jesus Center. “Today’s announcement, and Comcast’s support, will allow us to ensure all of our community members have access to the services they need to thrive.” Today’s announcement and donation are part of Project UP, Comcast’s $1 billion commitment to reach millions of people with the tools, resources, and skills needed to succeed in a digital world. Comcast’s Lift Zones program complements its Internet Essentials program which, since 2011, has helped connect more than 10 million low-income people to the Internet at home. In California, Comcast has connected more than 1.7 million residents, making it the number one state in terms of overall participation in the Internet Essentials program. “We’re proud to partner with the City of Chico to launch these new Lift Zones and donate $75,000 to advance digital equity and workforce readiness in our most vulnerable neighborhoods,” said David Tashjian, Regional Senior Vice President, Comcast California. “Today’s announcement is a testament to the continued commitment from Comcast in closing the digital divide and ensuring equitable digital learning opportunities are available to every individual who seeks it. Our continued partnership with the city and our community partners will equip individuals, families and seniors with the tools, skills and resources they need to achieve their goals.” Comcast continues to be a proud participant in the Federal Government’s Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), which provides eligible people up to a $30 per month credit toward their Internet and mobile services (and $75 per month on tribal lands).

Holiday Gift Guide for Him

Benzinga

Buying gifts for men can be difficult, but there are ways to make the gift selection process easier. Remember, each man is different and will have various likes, hobbies and dislikes. If you’re looking for the best gifts for the man in your life, keep reading to view our holiday season gift guide for him. First, Take into Consideration These Tips on Buying the Best Gift for Any Man in Your Life No holiday gift guide would be complete without a quick discussion of things you should think about when buying gifts for him. To find the ideal gift for the man in your life, there are three things you can look for that will help you find something he'll love. Pay attention to his needs: Everyone has practical needs, but we don’t always tend to them. For example, someone may talk about needing a car wash kit so they don’t have to continue to go to the car wash but never buy one for themselves. Spend some time listening to your man to see whether you can identify anything he needs but hasn’t bought for himself. If you want to give a good gift, the No. 1 rule is that you give him something he will use and not put it on an empty shelf somewhere. Keep it simple: Men tend to like straightforward things, and that’s why you shouldn’t overthink the gift. Instead of complicating things, think about what would make his life easier or more enjoyable. For instance, if he is a music lover, you could give him tickets to his favorite concert or buy him that guitar he’s had his eye on. Notice what he likes to do and buy for himself: Does the man in your life have a? Does he have a habit of buying things that contribute to or grow his hobby? Noticing these things can make for great gift-giving ideas. If he has a hobby that he loves, give him a gift related to it. For example, does he play golf often? Get him a golf gift such as a replacement for the club he's always complaining about. Or, you could concentrate on the things he wants to do but hasn’t. Maybe you’ve heard him talk about wanting to try rock climbing — why not make his day and give him the gift of lessons? 10 Holiday Gift Ideas That Men Actually Want It’s time to get into the specifics. Here are some of the best holiday gifts for him. 1. Grill Set If the man you’re shopping for likes to cook outdoors, you have a lot of choices, but to make the gift special, why not opt for a grill set? Just like how pool players take their pool sticks seriously, any griller worth this salt understands that the tools he uses can make cooking that steak or hamburger even better. And if you want to make the gift even more special, consider personalizing it with his name or a funny saying. 2. Engraved Decanter Set If he likes to pour his drinks in style, an engraved decanter set could be the ideal gift. You can engrave the glasses with his initials, or engrave the decanter with his name or some other sentimental text. This gift is best for anyone who likes to entertain and wants to make a good impression when serving drinks. 3. Wallet Men carry a lot of important stuff in their wallets. A wallet not only needs to be practical and a size that will hold everything they carry, it also needs to match their style. Some men like simple leather wallets while others like metal wallets. If the man in your life needs a new wallet, make sure you understand his style and then wow him with a new one. 4. Watch Watches have come a long way, and if he hasn’t caught up to the times and still wears the same watch he wore a decade ago, it might be time for an upgrade. Pay attention to his style and select a watch that matches it. Would a leather band fit his style, or would a gold or silver band fit into his wardrobe and lifestyle? If he is adventurous, think about giving him a watchmaking kit so he can make his own unique watch. Watches make an excellent luxury gift for him, if you're looking for something a little more pricey. 5. Personalized Toiletry Bag If the man you are buying a gift for travels a lot, a custom toiletry bag could make a great personalized gift. You can find toiletry bags in leather in various colors or bags that are made from other types of materials. One hint if you want to buy the right style is to look at his luggage and match it as closely as you can. 5. Cigar Humidor If the man you’re buying for loves good cigars, he would likely love a good humidor to store them in. When searching for a humidor, be sure to think about the quality. A good-quality humidor will allow him to store the cigars and keep them fresh for months. 7. Laptop Bag Does he carry his laptop to and from work or when he travels? If so, a laptop bag could make a perfect gift. Look for a bag that matches his personality — whether it’s made from canvas, leather or another material — and ensure that it has enough pockets and compartments to hold the rest of his gear. This is a great tech gift for any man who carries his laptop with him. If you want to make it even more special, personalize it with his name. 8. Hot Sauce Set As a general rule, men love hot sauce. In fact, you likely know a man who has participated in a hot pepper-eating contest. If the man in your life loves hot sauce, a hot sauce set might make a well-appreciated unique gift. You can find sets that include various styles of hot sauce in many different types of bottles and containers. If you choose this gift, have fun with it and find one that matches his personality. If you can't find enough to complete a set you can use individual bottles as stocking stuffers! 9. Cooler If he likes to spend time at the beach, lake, pool party or campground, a cooler would make a great gift. You can get him a cooler that will keep his favorite canned beverages cool for days, or you could opt for a mini-cooler if he only needs it for a few hours. Just like with any other gift, if you personalize the gift it will make it that much more special to him. Plus, it will ensure that his cooler doesn’t get mixed up with his friends’ coolers. 10. Subscription Box If you want to give him a gift that keeps on giving, think about signing him up for a subscription box. You can find subscription boxes for beer lovers that will deliver a beer or wine of the month, movie collections for movie night enthusiasts, or even shaving essentials for the burly gentlemen. If you choose this type of gift, he will think of you every time a new box shows up in his mailbox! Yes, You Can Find the Perfect Gift for Him Finding unique gifts for men doesn’t have to be difficult. To find the perfect gift for him, focus on his personality, style and needs, and soon, you will know just what type of gift to buy. And don’t forget to get jewelry insurance if you choose fine jewelry as a gift. For instance, if you buy him an expensive watch and you make insurance a part of the gift, he will relax, knowing that any loss resulting from theft or damage will be covered.

Holiday Jewelry Buying Guide for Her

Benzinga

If you are looking for jewelry as the perfect gift for your girlfriend, wife, sister or friend, you have a lot to consider. After all, jewelry is a personal gift, and you can’t give her just any piece of jewelry. Instead, you’ll need to put a lot of thought into it to ensure that you give her a piece that she will love and wear for years. If you know you want to buy her jewelry but aren’t sure how to go forward, our holiday gift guide will help you find the best gifts. Buying the Perfect Gift for Your Special Someone Gift buying is an art; when you get that perfect gift, the recipient will remember it forever. And jewelry tops the list of great gifts because of all the options associated with it. For instance, you can give timeless pieces; you can customize jewelry to make it even more personal; you can purchase matching sets for friends or family; you can give permanent jewelry; and more. Even better is the fact that a gift of jewelry will last for years as long as it’s properly cared for. And if you want to take your holiday jewelry gift to the next level? Include the first year of jewelry insurance if you plan to give a piece of high-end jewelry. 5 Holiday Jewelry Gift Ideas While giving jewelry is personal because people have their own style, some traditional jewelry gifts appeal to everyone. You can make the gift special by keeping in mind the recipient’s style and how they like to wear their jewelry. Here are some unique gift ideas that will warm her heart during the holiday season. 1. Earrings If you’re looking for holiday gifts for her where you can get a little crazy, earrings are a great choice. Earrings are an ideal gift for people who like to express themselves in creative and unique ways. For instance, you can give an ear cuff or wrap perfectly sized hoops for the woman who loves the simplicity of thin gold. On the other hand, if she is more conservative in her dress, think about small diamonds or pearl earrings. 2. Rings When it comes to jewelry gifts, rings are in a special category of their own. Whether you are surprising her with a holiday proposal and an engagement ring or want to give her a ring that fits her everyday style, a ring will please even the most discerning woman in your life. You will have many options when it comes to rings. You can give a unique custom ring that draws attention, or you can buy an understated ring that looks expensive and classy. You will find many different price points when buying a ring. 3. Necklaces Giving her a necklace is a great choice because this type of jewelry gives her a chance to stand out in the crowd. You can give her a statement piece that draws attention or you can opt for an understated piece that is adorned with a single gem. You can also give a more traditional necklace such as a band of pearls or a long gold or silver chain. 4. Watches If you want to give a jewelry gift that combines beauty and practicality, a watch is a great choice. And you won’t be limited by only a few styles. You can opt for a classic watch with a thin gold band and understated face, or a unique watch that shows personality, or even go more modern and get an apple watch. Price is a factor with a watch gift, as well. You can choose an inexpensive watch or opt for a high-end watch. Either way, ensure that you choose one that fits her style and personality. 5. Bracelets Another great jewelry gift is a bracelet. Because these pieces of jewelry come in so many styles and colors, your choices are seemingly endless. You can give her a simple gold bracelet, or you can opt for a colorful bracelet made of various materials. Another great gift for her is a permanent bracelet. She will think of you every time she feels the gold touch her wrist. How to Pick the Right Piece of Jewelry As wonderful as gift jewelry is, if you select a piece that doesn’t go with her style, she may not wear it often. Here are some things you can do to ensure that you choose the right piece for her. Consider Her Style Preferences Every woman has a style of her own, and that style extends to her jewelry. Pay attention to the jewelry that she wears. Does she prefer gold or silver, maybe rose gold? Does she wear pieces with diamonds or does she prefer colored stones? Is her favorite jewelry made up of large, showy pieces, or does she prefer smaller, understated pieces? Does she view jewelry as an investment or does she prefer inexpensive jewelry that she can change often? The type of jewelry she wears now will give you insight into her style – and you can use that to select the ideal jewelry piece for her. Take into Account Her Lifestyle Her lifestyle should also take a front seat when selecting jewelry for her. For instance, does she like to wear her jewelry 24/7 or does she take it off every night? Does she work in a creative atmosphere where she can wear unique pieces, or does she work in an office where she needs to wear more modest pieces? Is she active? If so, you may not want to give her a dangly bracelet or necklace that will get in the way while she's working. Think Beyond Rings Although rings make an excellent holiday jewelry gift in many circumstances, there are some instances when it’s best to avoid them and think about a different type of jewelry. For instance, if you’re dating her and are not ready to make a commitment, a ring would not be an appropriate jewelry gift because it could too easily be associated with a wedding ring. Don’t Break the Bank It can be tempting to buy her the most expensive piece of jewelry in the showcase, but before you do that, think about your budget. If you keep the other tips in mind and select a piece of jewelry that fits her style and life, you can get away with a less expensive piece. By shopping around, you can find budget-friendly options that she will find stunning. Consult with Jewelers If you’re not certain about what type of jewelry to buy for her, it’s a good idea to meet with a few jewelers and talk to them about your choices. When you meet with them, ask about their bestsellers, which may inspire some ideas for your gift. If she has a jeweler, speak to them about her past preferences and that may lead you to a better idea of what she would love for this gift. Select the Perfect Holiday Jewelry Gift for Her Giving jewelry as gifts is a great way to let her know that you love and appreciate her. But it’s important to understand what type of jewelry she loves and what jewelry will fit into her lifestyle. Don’t forget to speak to jewelers if you aren’t sure how to select the perfect gift. And if you choose a high-end piece, be sure to insure the jewelry to ensure that it’s replaced if it’s lost, damaged or stolen. This post contains sponsored advertising content.

This holiday season, whether you’re looking for gifts for your children, grandkids, friends or yourself, Nintendo Switch has gifts for all ages — and incredible games and experiences the entire family can enjoy. With Nintendo’s vast library of games, there is a game for everyone on the Nintendo Switch system. This includes fun multiplayer titles that the whole family can play together, in addition to incredible games and experiences you can only find on Nintendo Switch. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/wWekFk-Mcik With the Nintendo Switch family of systems, everyone has the choice of a system that best fits their needs and play styles. The Nintendo Switch system can be played on the TV, in Tabletop mode or taken on the go for portable play. The Nintendo Switch Lite system is a dedicated handheld gaming system great for those who love playing in handheld mode. The Nintendo Switch – OLED Model system is similar in overall size to the Nintendo Switch system, but features a larger, vibrant 7-inch OLED screen with vivid colors and crisp contrast. Here are some of the Nintendo Switch games people are talking about this year: The Splatoon 3 game is the newest addition to the Splatoon series, where players splash vivid ink everywhere using colorful, over-the-top weapons. The battlegrounds include new and returning stages for heated multiplayer Turf War* battles, where two teams attempt to cover the most ground with their ink color in three-minutes. Players can also pick a side and battle it out in three-team Splatfests**, compete for rankings in thrilling Anarchy Battles or swim solo in the new single-player Story Mode, “Return of the Mammalians.” Gameplay is fun for both parents and kids, who can play together across multiple Nintendo Switch systems or online including co-op modes like Salmon Run*. Families can get moving together with the Nintendo Switch Sports game, as they team up to play Soccer, Volleyball, Bowling, Tennis, Badminton, and Chambara (swordplay) using Joy-Con controllers. Plus, in late November, Nintendo released a new update that adds Golf to the lineup. Controls are intuitive, so it’s easy to jump in and get started. With controlled motions you can curve your bowling ball, add spin to a tennis shot or even use a Joy-Con with the included Leg Strap accessory to kick the ball in Soccer. Family and friends can join in on the fun on the same system (additional accessories may be required; sold separately) or online**. In Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet embark on a new, open-world Pokémon adventure through the rich and expansive Paldea region. Weave freely through three grand stories: Take on Gyms in Victory Road, battle Titan Pokémon in Path of Legends and challenge Team Star in Starfall Street. Ride a form-changing Legendary Pokémon to traverse the land, seas and skies of the Paldea Region. Parents that grew up with the original Pokémon games can now experience the game in a whole new way with the little trainers in their family. Plus, several Nintendo Switch games and DLC*** are sure to bring family fun this holiday, including Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass DLC, Kirby and the Forgotten Land, Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope, Just Dance 2023 Edition, Sonic Frontiers in addition to a library of classic Nintendo 64 titles available for Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack members.
