In an effort to educate consumers, NTCA–The Rural Broadband Association
has released several educational pieces regarding the ongoing call completion epidemic that are available for association members to share with their customers.
On February 16, the association issued a feature article that has been placed in hundreds of local newspapers in rural areas across the country. The article provides consumers with information about call completion and how consumers can report call failures to the FCC.
Additionally, the association has released a video and an infographic that explain the issue.
All of the new resources are posted at www.ntca.org/callcompletion. |

As the Director of the Southwest Environmental Finance Center at the University of New Mexico, Heather focuses on finding better ways to manage and pay for public water systems. Public water managers provide our communities with a resource upon which all else depends. Clean, reliable water and the infrastructure that supports it is something many in our society take for granted. Ms.Himmelberger sees upcoming water issues of quality, quantity, and infrastructure as an opportunity to invest in a sustainable water future and choose to put water first.

Wal-Mart said Thanksgiving was its second biggest day ever for online sales and Target’s online buying was up 40% over last year.
This is the time of year that people buy new smartphones, TVs and new game consoles because they are able to get killer deals and now they are dying to get their hands on these new goodies.
What you may not know is that similar to a magazine’s editorial calendar, criminal hackers have a “scam calendar” which focuses on events exactly like this. They have campaigns planned and ready to roll starting TODAY for the rest of the month.
These malware campaigns do not discriminate between the home and the office. Roughly a billion of these criminal emails are sent each day.
“Scammers are preying on people that have just made a lot of online purchases on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. There are several scam campaigns being sent right now.
