Ron Hurtibise | (TNS) South Florida Sun SentinelJust when you finally traded up to a 5G phone, Comcast’s newest marketing campaign promises to hook you up to its 10G Network.TV commercials debuted during the Super Bowl, boasting, “The next generation 10G Network. Only from Xfinity. One giant leap for mankind!”Sounds like Comcast is offering a service that’s twice as good as 5G, right?That might be what the cable and internet giant wants you to think is happening. But don’t throw that 5G phone out just yet.There’s literally no comparison between 5G and 10G.Despite having the letter G in common, the two phrases refer to completely distinct technology, and some tech-oriented websites are criticizing companies that leave the wrong impression in consumers’ minds.Let’s clarify what the two terms mean: 5G refers to the fifth generation of cellular technology, while 10G refers to the speed by which data can enter homes through cable and fiber connections.5G is the latest iteration in an evo...Dolphins bringing back RBs Raheem Mostert, Jeff Wilson on two-year deals

Two banks have collapsed since Friday, the federal government swooped in to save the day, and there’s still a lot of uncertainty about what comes next.Depositors at Silicon Valley Bank — which failed Friday after a bank run — and New York-based Signature Bank — which collapsed Sunday — will see their money guaranteed by the federal government. In a joint statement Sunday, the U.S. Treasury Department, the Federal Reserve and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. said all deposits at both banks would be guaranteed — but not at the expense of taxpayers. Depositors were told they would have access to their money Monday.» Ask a Nerd: How Does SVB’s Closure Affect Me?The move was an attempt to alleviate systemic risk to the banking system and shore up public confidence, according to the statement.

BEIRUT (AP) — Syrian President Bashar Assad arrived in Moscow on Tuesday, where he is scheduled to meet top ally Russian President Vladimir Putin. Russia is a main backer of Assad and has a broad presence in Syria, where a 12-year uprising-turned-civil war has killed nearly half a million people and displaced half the country’s pre-war population. Moscow has played a pivotal role in fighting back armed opposition groups trying to topple Assad’s government through its military support, and has also aggressively backed Damascus against opponents at the United Nations.The Kremlin confirmed Tuesday that Putin will meet with Assad on Wednesday — the anniversary of the conflict — in a statement carried by Russia’s state news agency Tass.According to the statement, “further development of Russian-Syrian cooperation in the political, trade, economic and humanitarian spheres, as well as the prospects for a comprehensive settlement of the situation in and around Syria,” will be on the agenda....Ohio sues Norfolk Southern over toxic train derailment

Ohio filed a lawsuit against railroad Norfolk Southern to make sure it pays for the cleanup and environmental damage caused by a fiery train derailment on the Ohio-Pennsylvania border last month, the state’s attorney general said Tuesday. The federal lawsuit also seeks to force the company to pay for groundwater and soil monitoring in the years ahead and economic losses in the village of East Palestine and surrounding areas, said Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost. “The fallout from this highly preventable accident is going to reverberate throughout Ohio for many years to come,” Yost said. No one was hurt in the Feb. 3 derailment, but half of the roughly 5,000 residents of East Palestine had to evacuate for days when responders intentionally burned toxic chemicals in some of the derailed cars to prevent an uncontrolled explosion, leaving residents with lingering health concerns. Government officials say tests over the past month haven’t found dangerous levels of chemicals i...Five years after Rio councilwoman slain, questions and hope
