Can you get a refund for poor in-flight Wi-Fi?

Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 18:37:42 GMT

For many frequent flyers in 2023, functional Wi-Fi has become a critical in-flight amenity. Many travelers demand access to the cloud while they’re, well, in the clouds.But sometimes, the Wi-Fi is no good. It takes three tries to reload a page, or the connection cuts out right when you've found what you were looking for.That's frustrating enough for passengers on airlines like JetBlue that offer complimentary Wi-Fi, or for those who get free in-flight Wi-Fi through their airline elite status or an airline-branded credit card. But it’s most brutal for the people who pay specifically for in-flight Wi-Fi yet receive a service that hardly serves them at all. 7.6 magnitude earthquake strikes off the southern Philippines; tsunami warning issued I had a faulty Wi-Fi connection on a United Airlines flight in September from San Francisco to Orlando. On U.S. domestic flights, United sells Wi-Fi service for either $8 or 800 miles for MileagePlus members and $10 for everyone else. I opted to ...

State data collection systems failing students in juvenile detention, report says

Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 18:37:42 GMT

(BCN) -- California is failing to provide a high-quality education to students in the juvenile justice system by not addressing the inadequacies of academic data collection practices, according to a recent report from the national Youth Law Center. Current collection practices, the report authors argue, do not accurately measure student needs and outcomes."A failure to design better metrics would be a disastrous choice on the part of California stakeholders to keep these students out of sight and out of mind," the report's authors wrote. Biden says HIV/AIDS strategy needs to confront inequity The report, "Out of Sight, Out of Mind," is a follow-up to a 2016 report that similarly found the state to be failing in its mission of providing students in juvenile detention with high-quality education via its disproportionate representation of multiple student populations, high rates of chronic absenteeism, low high school graduation rates, inaccurate or incomplete data, and more.The most...

He was cited on a weapons charge, the TSA said.The man, who claimed that he didn’t know he had his gun with him, could see a penalty of up to $15,000 for bringing a gun to an airport checkpoint.“Two guns caught in a three-day span says a lot about the continued vigilance of our TSA officers,” Scott T.

BERLIN (AP) — Nathan Ngoumou scored late for Borussia Mönchengladbach to beat Hoffenheim 2-1 in the Bundesliga on Saturday and bounce back from its loss at Borussia Dortmund.The French midfielder was left unmarked by the Hoffenheim defense to tuck away Luca Netz’s cross in the 80th minute.Alassane Plea fired Gladbach ahead from the penalty spot in the 58th before Wout Weghorst equalized two minutes later.But the visitors were unable to muster a response to Ngoumou’s late goal as they slumped to their first away defeat.Gladbach, which was unbeaten in three games before losing at Dortmund 4-2 last weekend, was without American forward Jordan Pefok, who tore a thigh muscle in training on Friday.

¿Qué es un tsunami y por qué puede ser tan peligroso?

Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 18:37:42 GMT

(CNN) — Los tsunamis se forman por un desplazamiento de agua causado por un deslizamiento de tierra, un terremoto, una erupción volcánica o un deslizamiento del límite entre dos de las placas tectónicas de la tierra (que son placas de roca de 15 a 200 metros de espesor que apoyan los continentes de la Tierra y los mares en un océano subterráneo de material semisólido mucho más caliente).Sismo de magnitud 7,6 sacude Mindanao, FilipinasLos tsunamis pueden viajar a más de 800 kilómetros por hora en el punto más profundo del agua. Sin embargo, disminuyen la velocidad a medida que se acercan a la costa.Pero siguen siendo peligrosos, pues allí pueden llegar con una velocidad de entre 32 a 48 kilómetros por hora.La energía de la velocidad de la ola se transfiere a la altura y la fuerza bruta a medida que se acerca a la orilla.Según la Administración Nacional Oceánica y Atmosférica de EE.UU. (NOAA), aunque no se puede prevenir un tsunami, “el impacto de uno se puede mitigar a tr...

McCarthy was ditched and Santos expelled. The House is making history, but not as the GOP envisioned

Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 18:37:42 GMT

WASHINGTON (AP) — The House is making history this year in ways that Republicans could hardly have envisioned when the party took control.First, the Republicans voted to oust their speaker, Rep. Kevin McCarthy, in October. On Friday they voted to get rid of one of their own, indicted Rep. George Santos of New York.Never before had a House majority voted to evict its speaker, and not since the Civil War had the chamber voted to expel a member who was charged but not yet convicted of a crime.The result has been a dizzying 11 months in a House majority riven by infighting, chiseling away at the powers of Congress and taking its toll on the actual business of governing. As the year comes to a close, the arc of power for House Republicans is at an inflection point, a new era of performance politics and chaotic governing that shows no signs of easing.“Is it messy? Yeah, sure,” said Republican Rep. Mike Lawler, among the New Yorkers who led the ouster of Santos. “But when you’r...
