Advanced military platforms, ocean-bottom survey systems and remote sensing applications all require precise timing for mission success. Chip Scale Atomic Clocks (CSACs) ensure stable and accurate timing even when Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) time signals are unavailable. Helping industrial and military system designers to meet this requirement, Microchip Technology Inc. (Nasdaq: MCHP) today announced its new SA65 CSAC, providing precise timing accuracy and stability in extreme environments.

Microchip’s SA65 CSAC is an embedded timing solution with improved environmental ruggedness, delivering higher performance than the previous SA.45s CSAC, including double the frequency stability over a wider temperature range and faster warm-up at cold temperatures. The SA65 has an operating temperature range of -40 to 80 degrees Celsius (^oC) and a storage temperature range of -55 to 105 ^oC. The warm-up time of two minutes at -40 ^oC is 33% faster than that of the SA.45s.

Together, these SA65 CSAC performance improvements benefit designers of highly-portable solutions for military applications such as Assured Position, Navigation and Timing (A-PNT) and command, control, communications, computers, cyber, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C5ISR) requiring precise frequencies generated by a low Size, Weight and Power (SWaP) atomic clock. Improvements such as fast warm-up to frequency after cold start, temperature stability over a wide operating range, and frequency accuracy and stability enabling extended operation while GNSS is denied help to ensure mission success in conflict environments.

The SA65 CSAC is the world’s lowest-power commercial atomic clock and provides precise timing for portable and battery-powered applications requiring continuous operation and holdover in GNSS-denied environments. The SA65 is form-, fit- and function-compatible with the SA.45s, which minimizes risk and redesign costs for the system developer while improving performance and environmental insensitivity.

As a world leader in the research, development and manufacture of timing and synchronization solutions, Microchip has delivered more than 275,000 rubidium clocks, 138,000 CSACs, 12,500 Cesium clocks and 200 active hydrogen masers to customers worldwide.

Development Tools

The CSAC family of atomic clocks is supported by Developer Kit 990-00123-000, as well as associated software, a user guide and technical support.

Garnet Valley, PA, USA, August 24, 2021 -- Briggs Auction is pleased to offer the Dr. Mead Shaffer collection of early American antiques on Friday, September 24th. Bidding is online only, through Briggs Auction's Bid at Briggs platform and through Live Auctioneers.com. Pre-auction/absentee bids will be accepted until 10 am on the date of auction, September 24th, when real-time online bidding will begin on both platforms.

Dr. Shaffer, a resident of Garnet Valley, Pennsylvania, is a noted preservationist, historian and collector. The auction will include Dr. Shaffer’s extensive collection of colonial and early American and regional antiques, colonial cookware, folk and decorative arts and much more. Briggs Auction has an app to make bidding easy and convenient; simply search Briggs Auction in the Apple App Store, or on Google Play.

"Dr. Shaffer has been a staple in the antiques community for over forty years, and his collection is truly one to be admired," said Stephen Turner, the owner of Briggs Auction, Inc. "We are honored Dr. Shaffer chose us to handle this important and historic collection, and we hope that it will appeal to a wide range of collectors, history buffs and anyone who's looking for a piece of early America and/or local Pennsylvania.”

Dr. Shaffer grew up on a farm in Wayne County, Pennsylvania, which he later gifted to the state. It is now known as the Varden Conservation Area. In 1960, after college at Penn State and a stint in the Army as a veterinarian, he moved to Delaware County, where he opened his (still thriving) veterinary practice. Shortly after, he took up residence in a home on the circa 1721 Booth farm in Bethel Township, also known as the Garret-Booth-Cheyney House, which he relished as much for its ties to colonial America as the farmland itself. "I am obsessed with history", Dr. Shaffer said, and his collection reflects this passion.

Highlights of the collection include early cupboards and cabinets, including an 18th century Pennsylvania red painted corner cupboard with star and moon decoration; a Pennsylvania blue-painted two-door cupboard with rat-tail hinges; an 18th century two-part Dutch cupboard in salmon paint with pie shelf; and an 18th century possible Eastern Shore, Md., one-piece corner cupboard with a 12-light glass door top.

Also included is a fine selection of early and 19th century chairs, including a set of ten Bucks County, Pa., bamboo-turned chairs attributed to Samuel Moon; several 18th century Philadelphia low-back Windsor armchairs, many with grain painted seats; early Philadelphia Windsor settees; and wonderful benches.

Also sold will be a Chippendale walnut desk; an 18th century Chippendale pine blanket chest and an 18th century walnut hanging wall cupboard from Oley Valley (Berks County), with a self-locking lower drawer.

Whimsical early American folk-art pieces are sure to generate excitement, including carvings by William Ellis; a carved and painted passenger pigeon perched on a branch; a carved and polychrome-decorated rabbit figure; a carved wooden sculpture of a standing pig with a painted surface; a carved wooden sculpture of a fish mounted onto a later whalebone and wood base; and a collection of carved decoys.

The Dr. Shaffer collection will also feature many pieces of local stoneware, including jugs, crocks, water coolers and more, by makers such as H. Weston (Honesdale, Pa.); Sipe, Nichols & Co. (Williamsport, Pa.); O.H. Smith & Bros. (Flemington, N.J.), as well as others. Also up for bid will be a fine assortment of 19th century toleware and early American metal ware, including kitchen wares, utensils and other items.

Live, in-person previews will be held on Wednesday, September 22nd, from 1-5 pm; and on Thursday, September 23rd from 1-5 pm, both times Eastern, with no appointment needed. The previews will be held at the Garret-Booth-Cheyney House and barn, located at 1645 Bethel Road, Garnet Valley, PA 19060.

However, because returning buyers are so vital to business, it’s integral to do all you can to secure them, but how? Well, before a customer becomes a repeat customer, they need to become a first time customer.

The key to earning new customers is to make your business easy to find, and we don’t just mean having a good physical location. A big online presence is crucial for attracting new consumers, who will ideally become repeat shoppers down the road. MORBiZ specializes in helping small local businesses establish and maintain a digital footprint that makes it easy for nearby consumers to find them. Once a potential customer finds you online and likes what they see, such as an easy to navigate website that clearly explains your services, they’re likely to schedule an appointment or simply head in. At that point, it’s time for you and your team to do what you do best, offer a quality experience.

The new blog released by MORBiZ about earning repeat customers answers integral questions, such as "Why are repeat customers so important?" and provides tips for converting first time customers into life-long clients.

“TopicFolders” continue to be the Work Hub for small businesses worldwide.

Fort Lee, NJ - USA | August 24, 2021 -- CCE Technologies, Inc., a technology startup based in Fort Lee, New Jersey, announced a series of significant updates to its flagship business productivity app, Clariti (https://clariti.app/) to boost personal and team productivity.

Since securing funding late last year, Clariti has been continually investing resources in enhancing the software with a singular goal of increasing productivity especially in small businesses and startups. It was quick to separate itself from other chat-focused apps like Slack and Teams and present an alternative that doesn’t force users to give up emails and yet not hamper productivity.

With the introduction of TopicFolders earlier this year, Clariti offered an intuitive way for people to organize their work using some of the same ideas they are familiar with typical desktop folders. Most users find it convenient to have all their work-related communications in one simple web app and have increasingly adopted Clariti as the Work Hub in their businesses.

Some of the key product enhancements include the ability for users to switch seamlessly between chats and calls connected to the same topic. Clariti has improved its user experience by allowing calls to be placed from within the chat session. The same user interface also allows for screen-sharing, thereby enhancing the overall collaboration experience. This update is key because it helps the user to preserve the context of the discussion even after switching from a chat to a call for instance. This is currently available for direct one-on-one private chats/calls and will very soon be rolled out for group calls.

Clariti also has made significant improvements to the workflow of its unique OrbitChat feature where Clariti users can chat with their email contacts using just the recipient’s email address. This allows for much faster communication without forcing the recipient to create a Clariti account. The complete history of all your chat with every OrbitChat user is always available for reference and the recipient can create a Clariti account later at any point when they choose to.

“We are singularly focused on making product improvements that make people more efficient at what they do. Given that most people waste a lot of time switching between multiple apps for email, chat, calls…or trying to find information lost in these silos, Clariti, with its unique TopicFolder, serves as the perfect Work Hub for businesses. The recent improvements we announced is poised to boost personal and team productivity in businesses. It is our mission to give users an easy way to keep their work organized without any additional effort or changing the way they work,” said Vinay Wagle, V.P. Sales & Marketing at CCE Technologies, Inc.

Clariti is securely hosted on Amazon Web Services, providing total reliability, 100% uptime and trusted security. It uses 256-bit SHA encryption for both data and communications.

Clariti is available as a web app (no downloads needed) with a rich set of functionalities. Some of the key features include:

* Easy organizing using TopicFolders
* Full-featured Email client
* One-on-one & group Chats
* Direct & Conference Calling with screen-sharing
* Calendar for To-dos/Events
* Built-in Document storage
* Cloud Storage integration
* Chat directly from an email – no need to forward emails

Clariti is available for free for all users. Premium features are available for a low monthly fee. For complete pricing information, visit clariti.app/pricing/. To learn more about Clariti and get started for free, visit clariti.app

Democrats sneaking Amnesty for millions of illegals into reconciliation budget bill

Most Americans are unaware Congress is on the verge of passing a federal budget this week that contains unrelated green card Amnesty legislation for millions of illegal aliens.

The national organization ALIPAC advises that exposing this plot to the American public and getting them on the phones to Congress is key to defeating this Amnesty dirty trick.

Democrats in Congress are breaking the legislative rules by placing green card Amnesty for illegals and other unrelated or non-germane items into the budget to sneak radical agenda items into law, bypassing the 60 vote filibuster rule in the US Senate.

The filibuster rule in the US Senate is a time-honored rule designed to prevent any political group from making radical changes to American laws unless there is strong majority support above 60 votes. Budget bills only require 50 votes but are only supposed to be focused on budget items according to the rules of Congress.

The green card Amnesty being snuck into the budget bill is expected to give green cards to more than five million illegal immigrants who would, in turn, give Democrats millions of new voters bestowing full and permanent control of all national elections, branches of the federal government, and laws and policies of the United States.

"The key to defeating this budget bill Amnesty plot is exposure and rallying individual activists, groups, and members of the honest media to warn American citizens rapidly while encouraging them to express their opposition to congress by phone," said William Gheen, spokesperson for ALIPAC.us "Any legislation passed in this covert way that violates the rules of Congress will be rightfully deemed illegitimate and unconstitutional by the American public when they find out."

Radio Show host Mark Levin and GOP White House advisor Stephen Miller warned on Fox News on Sat. Aug 21, 2021 that...

"This is the most extreme, frankly most insane proposal I would argue in all of modern history. During the worst most devastating border crisis... during a pandemic... They (Democrats) are proposing to effectively eliminate the legislative filibuster by using an arcane budget process... to enact Amnesty for this nation's illegal alien population."

Americans for Legal Immigration PAC has been leading the national fight against illegal immigration and Amnesty since 2004 and has played an an influential and sometimes decisive role in stopping legislation Amnesty in DC many times.

The organization has also played a key role in defeating state-level bills that tried to give Amnesty, licenses, and in-state tuition to illegals in more than 30 states.

The truth is that a large majority of Americans oppose any form of Amnesty for illegals, and any Amnesty legislation that passes will place America under totalitarian single-party rule while increasing the amount of costly and deadly illegal immigration into our nation.
