July 4, 2022 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Today marks the 246th Independence Day of the United States of America. Also known as the Fourth of July, this day commemorates the adoption of the Declaration of Independence by the Continental Congress, as well as the declaration by the Congress that the American colonies are free and independent states. Independence Day is the National Day of the United States.
Interesting note: Benjamin Franklin, George Clymer, Robert Morris, George Read, James Wilson, and Roger Sherman were the only founders to sign both the Declaration of Independence in 1776 and the Constitution of the United States in 1787.

American Made Advocacy: Rebuilding America’s Military Stockpiles Begins With Microelectronics

Dan’s Biz Bookshelf: 'Breakneck: China’s Quest to Engineer the Future'
03/26/2026 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: Dan's Biz BookshelfEvery once in a while, a book comes along that doesn’t just inform you, it recalibrates you. Breakneck: China’s Quest to Engineer the Future by Dan Wang is one of those books. This is not another breathless “China is coming” warning, nor is it a dismissive “they’ll never catch up” comfort read. Wang does something far more valuable: He calmly, intelligently, and relentlessly walks you through what’s actually happening on the ground inside the world’s fastest industrial transformation. It’s eye-opening.
