☆ 'Nobody's getting wealthy on Social Security,' lawmaker says. The November election may influence the program's future

Protect Social Security!" In 1983, when the last major Social Security reforms were enacted, there were no benefit enhancements, Larson argued. Today, annual earnings of up to $168,600 are subject to a 6.2% payroll tax toward Social Security paid by both workers and employers. Larson's plan also calls for closing loopholes that allow wealthy taxpayers to avoid paying Social Security taxes on other income. Larson said the public is well aware that Social Security benefits are theirs and they've paid for them.

Billionaire investor Bill Ackman, who's spent a good chunk of the weekend putting his weight — and his money — behind the prospect of a Joe Rogan-hosted vaccine debate, wants you to know he's not an anti-vaxxer or an advocate for conspiracy theories. "If you are truly interested in saving lives, you need to further the public's understanding of the truth about vaccines," Ackman added. Every day we wait, thousands more will die," Ackman tweeted at the time.

“That’s always a very difficult question,” Emelianova told CNN Sport when asked how she would describe the art of chess photography.

☆ Starbucks' Howard Schultz was the gold standard for good bosses everywhere. Then Gen Z worked for him.

Howard Schultz, the CEO of Starbucks at the time, then appeared with Clinton on a panel to discuss corporate responsibility. Schultz discussed his 1987 decision to offer Starbucks employees stock options and what he said was better healthcare than rivals, among other benefits. Starbucks workers participate in November's Red Cup Rebellion, a nationwide strike. Starbucks's health insurance option for part-time workers originates in a 1986 contract for unionized Seattle Starbucks workers that Schultz fought against at the time. Markey said that by unionizing, Starbucks workers are "just looking to be someone who can protect themselves in the way your father could not."
☆ Chiefs coach Andy Reid uses 1 simple tactic to build trust with his players—and anyone can do it
  + stars: | 2023-02-08 | by ( Natasha Piñon | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
Andy Reid's run of success with the Kansas City Chiefs stems, at least partially, from a single decision he made a decade ago. Since becoming the team's head coach in 2013, Reid has led Kansas City to the NFL playoffs nine times in ten seasons. But when Reid first started in Kansas City, the team was weathering a rough patch, and he needed to quickly build trust with his players. former Kansas City linebacker Derrick Johnson told ESPN in 2020. At the meetings, players could complain about anything: the length or intensity of practices, the food in the cafeteria or whatever else was on their minds.
☆ Reddit just hired its first-ever CRO. He tells Insider how Reddit's ad sales team quintupled since 2020, and why a bad economy won't keep it from hiring more this year.

Media companies are cutting staff, but Reddit is still hiring in ad sales. Since massively re-organizing its ads sales team over two years ago and hiring Pinterest exec Harold Klaje to be VP of ads, the size of that team has quintupled, he said. Because of the growth of the ad sales team, Klaje has been promoted to be Reddit's first-ever CRO. Redditors are notoriously protective of their privacy, so Reddit never let advertisers target individual users. He added that Reddit is still hiring and its sales team will expand in 2023, though he declined to say by how much.

☆ STUDIU: Răspunsul imun al celulelor T la COVID-19 oferă protecţie şi împotriva noilor variante de coronavirus
  + stars: | 2021-04-01 | by ( Publika.Md - Aici Sunt Știrile | ) www.publika.md   time to read: +2 min
O componentă esenţială a sistemului imunitar, aşa-numitele celule T, care răspund prin combaterea infecţiei în versiunea iniţială a noului coronavirus par să protejeze, de asemenea, împotriva a trei dintre cele mai îngrijorătoare variante ale virusului, conform unui studiu de laborator efectuat în Statele Unite, ale cărui constatări au fost publicate săptămâna aceasta, relatează Reuters.Mai multe studii recente au demonstrat că anumite variante ale noului coronavirus pot submina protecţia oferită de anticorpi şi vaccinuri, scrie agerpres.ro Însă, potrivit unui studiu realizat de cercetători de la Institutul Naţional de Alergii şi Boli infecţioase (NIAID) din Statele Unite, pe lângă anticorpi - care împiedică virusul să atace celulele umane - celulele T par să joace un important rol suplimentar de protecţie. ''Datele noastre, precum şi rezultatele de la alte grupuri, demonstrează că răspunsul celulelor T la COVID-19 în cazul persoanelor infectate cu variantele virale iniţiale pare să recunoască pe deplin noi variante importante identificate în Marea Britanie, Africa de Sud şi Brazilia'', a declarat conducătorul studiului, Andrew Redd, de la NIAID şi Universitatea de Medicină Johns Hopkins.Cercetătorii au analizat probe de sânge recoltate de la 30 de persoane care s-au recuperat după COVID-19 înainte de apariţia noilor variante mai contagioase.Specialiştii au identificat în aceste probe o formă specifică de celulă T care era activă împotriva virusului şi au analizat reacţia acestor celule T faţă de variantele îngrijorătoare din Africa de Sud, Marea Britanie şi Brazilia.Cercetătorii au constatat că răspunsul celulelor T a rămas în mare parte intact, dovedindu-se astfel capabile să recunoască toate mutaţiile din variantele studiate.Aceste constatări se adaugă celor rezultate în urma unui studiu anterior care a sugerat, de asemenea, că răspunsul protector oferit de celulele T pare să rămână intact împotriva variantelor.Cercetătorii NIAID au menţionat că sunt necesare studii mai ample pentru confirmarea acestor concluzii.Redd a precizat că este necesară monitorizarea continuă pentru variante care scapă atât protecţiei oferite de anticorpi, cât şi a celulelor T.Studiul a fost evaluat de alţi oameni de ştiinţă şi acceptat pentru publicare în Open Forum Infectious Diseases.
