The cost of living in rural America tends to be less expensive than rent in big cities, but even in a rural town like Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, many working Americans are struggling to get by.Data from the United Way show 64 percent of households in Stroudsburg are below poverty line or make less than needed to afford basic living expenses.“I am a single mom of three children, ranging from 22-12,” said Shelly McCarthy. “I work from the time I get up at six in the morning until four at night.”For the last four years, McCarthy has worked up to four jobs at the same time.“From waitressing, doing visiting nursing, and also working with developmental adults,” McCarthy explained. “I miss out on a lot of my 12-year old’s activities at school.”Despite all the hours worked, McCarthy has had months where she couldn’t make the mortgage or had funds for much-needed repairs to her home. As for being able to afford healthier food for the family? That’s out of reach.“My daughter has a thyroid disease. So, I miss out on cooking healthy meals for her, because I had to cut down,” said McCarthy. “I couldn’t afford healthy food. I couldn’t afford Mediterranean fish.”“What is happening in America is that the cost of living is outstripping the wages,” said Sarah Jacobi, with Pocono Mountains United Way. “We are seeing over the last 10 years wages increased by 20 percent, but the cost-of-living increased up to 36 percent for a family of four, so people are just falling farther and farther behind.”The United Way has created a data project known as the A.L.I.C.E., which measures the number of people in America who are Asset Limited Income Constrained Employed. It’s essentially the number of people who make above the federal poverty line but less than what they need to afford basic living expenses. “Two out of every five American people today are AIICE,” said Jacobi. “This truly is the American experience that people are living every day.”However, according to the United Way’s data, it doesn’t have to be.“The ALICE report not only does give us that data, to understand where is ALICE and what is their struggle,” said Jacobi. “But it helps us [to] have insight into what are the cost people are truly facing and how we could craft everything from public policy position to help improve lives of people to how we can create programs boots on the ground able to help people.”People like McCarthy are hopeful help will come, either from an economic boost that affects more working-class Americans or public policy that focuses on giving people like her a chance to get ahead. 2595

The Federal Communications Commission unveiled a proposal Wednesday to limit the scourge of unwanted robocalls, a measure that would give phone companies wide latitude to block those calls by default.The plan, if approved, could go into effect later this year and allow carriers to apply robocall-blocking technologies to customer accounts automatically.Americans received more than 26 billion robocalls last year — a 46% increase over the year before, according to a study by the Seattle-based spam monitoring service Hiya.Companies have been working on a variety of techniques to thwart spam callers, but many have been reluctant to release them widely over fears that the technology could be considered illegal by regulators, said FCC Chairman Ajit Pai, who added his proposal aims to put those fears to rest."Allowing call blocking by default could be a big benefit for consumers who are sick and tired of robocalls," Pai said in a statement. "By making it clear that such call blocking is allowed, the FCC will give voice service providers the legal certainty they need to block unwanted calls from the outset so that consumers never have to get them."Carriers have also been developing standards aimed at verifying the owner of a particular phone number, in order to cut down on robocalls in which scammers hide behind legitimate phone numbers. The FCC proposal would ask for public input on how those standards should work.Last month, T-Mobile and Comcast's Xfinity said they would start verifying calls between their networks, using a tool that will alert customers if an incoming call wasn't placed by an actual human.Most major telecom companies have also had a hand in developing and testing anti-robocall technology called STIR/SHAKEN. The technology's goal is to tamp down on bad actors who use a technique called "spoofing," which allows them to skirt Caller ID and make it look like they're calling from another number — even phone numbers that are identical or look similar to your own.Spoofing has made it difficult for authorities to sort out which robocalls are illegal and which robocalls are spoofed for a legitimate reason, in cases like a call from a pharmacist or local school district. 2223

The brutal heat wave that engulfed more than half of the country, left tens of thousands without power and resulted in two deaths is finally coming to an end.People in the Midwest and Northeast should wake up to cooler temperatures Monday morning, according to CNN Meteorologist Michael Guy.That's because a cold front from Canada has traveled south, bringing with it some rain and a lot of much needed relief for overheated cities, many of which were under excessive heat watches over the weekend.Guy said that those in Washington DC and Philadelphia could still see temperatures in the 90's, but things should cool down by midweek.Some states in the Midwest such as Iowa and Illinois have already seen this cold front and lower temperatures as a result of cooler, drier air that's come down from our neighbors to the north.But even with a cold front the thermometer won't drop that much.The front is only expected to bring temperatures down into the mid-80's in the Midwest and Northeast, which is a normal range for this time of year, Guy said.Oddly enough, there are other parts of the United States that haven't experienced the above average heat that has plagued most of the country but are, instead, reporting record lows."While the East Coast was baking, parts of Montana hit in the upper 30's," Guy said, noting that on Sunday morning parts of Montana registered a record low for the day, reaching only 38 degrees Fahrenheit.Excessive heat watchAbout 195.7 million people were under an excessive heat watch or warning or a heat advisory Friday, according to the National Weather Service with alerts stretching from New Mexico to Maine.Record-breaking highs were recorded in at least four cities, including El Paso, Texas, which topped out at a boiling 106 degrees Fahrenheit, and Atlantic City, which saw 100 degrees.In Washington DC the fire department received 33 heat-related calls over the weekend and transported 11 people to hospitals due to heat-related illnesses, DC Fire spokesman Douglas Buchanan said.Buchanan tells CNN his department responded to 64 heat-related calls since the heat wave began on Thursday.Boston, New York and Philadelphia were just a few of the other cities on the East Coast that were under excessive heat warnings as of Friday.New York Mayor Bill De Blasio even issued an emergency declaration because of the intense heat that threatened its nearly 20 million residents.That declaration ordered office buildings 100 feet or taller to raise office thermostats to 78 degrees to conserve energy and urged residents to conserve energy. The emergency declaration ended at 11:59pm EST Sunday.But rolling power outages in the boroughs left some in Brooklyn, the Bronx and parts of Queens without any refuge from the blistering heat Sunday night.At its peak ConEdison reported a total of 53,000 customers without power across New York City prompting New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo to deploy hundreds of State Police, generators and light towers to assist. He encouraged New Yorkers to check on their elderly neighbors.Extreme heat also resulted in the cancellation of the New York City Triathalon on Sunday because the organization felt it was unsafe for athletes and spectators alike.High heat index in the MidwestSweltering temperatures led to several cities issuing heat advisories and opening up cooling centers to try to protect the most vulnerable communities.Officials in Detroit opened cooling centers and had members of the Police Department check on homeless people and offer them a ride to the centers.In other parts of the Midwest, several communities experienced soaring heat indexes. Madison, Wisconsin, for example, reached 93 degrees but had a heat index of 109 on Friday.Heat index or "apparent temperature" is a combination of air temperature and humidity which measures what the body actually feels when it's outside, according to CNN Meteorologist Haley Brink"We should pay attention because of the way we, as humans, cool down," she said. "We cool down by sweating, and that sweat evaporates off of our bodies, in turn decreasing our body temperature."When it is really humid outside, the rate of sweating decreases, so it actually feels warmer outside than it is," Brink said.Heat-related deathsThese record high temperatures are to blame for at least two deaths in recent days.Mitch Petrus, a former NFL lineman for the New York Giants, died from heatstroke at the age of 32 on Thursday.The former Super Bowl champion was working outside at his parents' shop in Lonoke County, Arkansas, where the temperature reached 92 degrees and a heat advisory was in effect, according to Pulaski County Coroner Gerone Hobbs.Petrus' mother told the coroner that her son had been drinking water while working outside but did not get enough electrolytes. Petrus did not appear to have any pre-existing conditions, Hobbs said.A woman hiking on a Maryland trail in the Washington DC suburbs died Saturday from what authorities believe was a heat-related emergency, Pete Piringer, a spokesman for Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Services, told CNN.Earlier this week Maryland officials announced four heat-related deaths between the July 3 and 15 but these were unrelated to the current heat wave.Those deaths included people in Prince George's, Worcester, Baltimore City, and Anne Arundel counties Maryland health officials said. 5378
