Super-loyal customers who use Starbucks' membership program account for about 40% of sales at the company's US stores. Now Starbucks is taking steps it believes will make the program more attractive.Starting on April 16, the coffee company's rewards members in the United States and Canada will start earning rewards sooner and have more options when redeeming points. For customers who use a Starbucks rewards credit or debit card, points won't expire. (They still expire after about six months for other members.)Digital rewards programs are a way for companies such as Starbucks to increase loyalty and learn more about their customers. The update is designed to bring even more people into the program by offering more choice.The current rewards program works like this: Customers get two points, or stars, for every dollar they spend. Customers need to hit 300 stars within one year in order to start qualifying for rewards. Once they qualify, they can get a free drink or free food for every 125 stars. If they hold on to the points until they reach, say, 250, they can redeem the points for two free drinks, two food items or one of each.The new system lets people get different rewards for different amounts of stars, and starts at a lower tier. Members can cash in 25 stars for an extra espresso shot, dairy substitute or another flavor pump. For 50, they get coffee or tea or a bakery item, and so on.More flexibility can serve more types of customer behaviors, Matthew Ryan, the company's chief marketing officer, told CNN Business."There are people who like to spend at very low levels, and there are people who like to hoard a lot of points," Ryan said. "Right now, we have just the middle point of the range."Starbucks launched its rewards programs in 2009, but has changed how it works over the years. Notably, in 2016, Starbucks 1857

TAMPA--Can coronavirus stick to your mail and packages? It's a question many people have when they run to the mailbox or even pick up groceries at the store.The National Institutes of Health says a study suggested the virus that causes COVID-19 can stay on surfaces like plastic and stainless steel for up to three days. The study also found the virus can live on cardboard for up to 24 hours. "The question exists, just because the virus has the capacity to survive on these surfaces, we don’t know that just that living virus can then turn into an infection as well," said Dr. Paul Nanda of Tampa General Hospital Urgent Care.The CDC reported it may be possible to get coronavirus after touching a contaminated surface and then touching your face, though the World Health Organization says that likelihood is low. The virus is thought to spread mainly person to person through respiratory droplets when someone sneezes or coughs.When it comes to your mail and packages, Dr. Nanda says you shouldn't have a problem.“Usually when mail and packages are in transit, they’re in transit long enough that if there was any contamination or virus on that packaging that enough time would’ve elapsed and it would be safe,” said Nanda.Dr. Nanda has heard of people creating a staging area in their garage to leave packages for an additional 24 hours after delivery. He says being extra cautious won't hurt you.Dr. Marissa Levine, a professor of public health and family medicine at USF, wants people to get into a routine of washing your hands."Just wash your hands, soap and water, 20 seconds. That’s the best thing that you can do," said Levine. "If the box or the surface is something you might use or touch frequently, then it wouldn’t be wrong to disinfect those surfaces.”If you get an envelope, package, or groceries, health experts suggest washing your hands, handle the items, and then sanitize again when you're done.Agencies like USPS, UPS, and FEDEX have taken extra precautions like using sanitizers, following social distancing guidelines, and no longer requiring signatures for some deliveries.

President Trump seems nowhere near making a deal with Democrats over border wall funding. And instead of waiting on a compromise, Trump's claiming he can declare an "immigration emergency" to get his way. But experts aren't so sure about that. "I don't think he can go through with it," said James Thurber, professor of government at American University and author of "Rivals for Power: Presidential-Congress Relations." "Maybe it will take a judicial action to force him not to do it, but I think that he probably found out that there was such a thing as the national emergency powers of the president and that stuck with him, and so he tweeted and stated things that were well before legal advice given to him."But is there precedent for Trump's potential move? They have been used by President George W. Bush during times of war and by President Barack Obama after Russia annexed Crimea. "Emergency powers were used to build facilities in Afghanistan and Iraq, but they've also been used since the 1976 National Emergencies Act that defines what you can and cannot do. They've been used probably 30 times, primarily on trade issues but also related to war and war powers," Thurber said.An 1204
