BOTHELL, Wash., July 18, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KB Home (NYSE: KBH), one of the largest and most trusted homebuilders in the U.S., today announced the grand opening of Camas Ridge, a new-home community in highly desirable Bothell, Washington, which offers a charming blend of outdoor recreation, local culture and a vibrant downtown scene. The new homes are designed for the way people live today, with popular features like modern kitchens overlooking large great rooms, expansive bedroom suites with walk-in closets, and ample storage space. The community's two-story floor plans feature up to five bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths, with some plans offering a walkout basement. Camas Ridge is zoned for the highly rated Northshore School District and is walking distance to parks.
What sets KB Home apart is the company's focus on building strong, personal relationships with every customer, so they have a real partner in the homebuying process. Every KB home is uniquely built for each customer, so no two KB homes are the same. Their home comes to life in the KB Home Design Studio, a one-of-a-kind experience where customers get both expert advice and the opportunity to select from a wide range of design choices that fit their style and their budget. Reflecting the company's commitment to creating an exceptional homebuying experience, KB Home is the #1 customer-ranked national homebuilder based on homebuyer satisfaction surveys from a leading third-party review site.
"We are pleased to offer homebuyers in the Seattle area spacious new two- and three-story homes in the charming town of Bothell," said Ryan Kemp, President of KB Home's Seattle division. "Camas Ridge is walking distance to highly rated schools and close to several neighborhood parks, including Park at Bothell Landing and North Creek Forest. Homeowners will also appreciate the proximity to downtown Bothell, which features excellent shopping and dining. At KB Home, we're here to help you achieve your dream with a personalized new home built uniquely for you and your life."

The company's floor plans inspire contemporary living, with a focus on roomy, light-filled spaces that have easy indoor/outdoor flow. KB homes are engineered to be highly energy and water efficient and include features that support healthier indoor environments. They are also designed to be ENERGY STAR® certified — a standard that fewer than 12% of new homes nationwide meet — offering greater comfort, well-being and utility cost savings than new homes without certification.

How Companies Can Keep Kids Safe In Today's Digital World
James Lamond is the Executive Director of Trusted Future, a Washington-based think tank focused on technology policy. For parents today, the world is drastically different than the one they grew up in. While the proliferation of connected technologies has created countless opportunities for children to learn and experience the world, there are very serious risks for kids if they don't enter the digital world safely. This can often feel overwhelming for parents. The good news is that companies can take real measures to help parents navigate the digital environment and give their kids the opportunities to benefit from all that technology has to offer. Some high-profile stories have highlighted just how risky the digital world can be for kids and teens. The risks include harmful interactions with adults online, harmful content delivered to vulnerable teens and even AI chatbots forming dangerous romantic relationships with minors. It's no wonder parents and policymakers want to take action. However, I believe some of the mobile app age verification bills in states like Texas, Utah and Louisiana, along with proposed legislation at the national level, miss the target and actually make the situation worse. These bills require app stores to verify the age of a user before the app is downloaded. On the surface, this sounds like a great idea, yet doing this the way the bill mandates requires the device to collect data about the user's age and then share it with each and every app they download. We should enhance privacy standards for children, not require more data to be shared. What's more, because the bills mandate age verification at the single point of the app store, it's easy enough to work around. For example, a user can avoid app store restrictions by going onto a shared family computer instead of their own personal device. How Businesses Can Help Kids And Parents The good news is that business leaders who develop and deploy technology can take real steps to help protect kids online with helpful safeguards that put parents in control. Here are a few steps companies can take: Securing the privacy of our kids and teens should be paramount for all companies. With any step taken regarding kids online, companies should ask whether it enhances or degrades a child's privacy. If the answer is that it degrades privacy, the company should reexamine it very carefully to make sure the benefit is worth the cost. Most of the time, it won't be. Many companies offer very good settings specifically for children that offer enhanced privacy and security as well as restrictions on functions and access. These tools can work wonderfully if they're properly set up and maintained. However, there is also a fairly large disparity between how tech-savvy individual parents are; some are tech whizzes themselves, while others aren't. A child's digital safety should not depend on their parents' digital capabilities. This is why having a very clear and streamlined process can go a long way. Specific steps could include things like maximum privacy settings by default, integrated family accounts, updated age ratings and the ability for parents to easily update their child's information if they did not set it up correctly or if they are using a hand-me-down device. It's also good business. Speaking as a consumer myself, I have set up three different devices for children with child safety features from three different companies. One was clear, simple and easy to use. The other two took much longer and required more independent research on my part. The first one instilled much more trust and confidence, and I would be much more likely to purchase from that company the next time. Ultimately, we want parents and families to be in charge of their kids' access online. Every family has different rules and standards, and there is no universal one-size-fits-all. It also means parents can have conversations with their kids to help navigate what can often be an unclear environment. Companies should empower parents with the ability to understand the decisions they have to make when it comes to their kids and the tools to be able to put those decisions into action. Many companies already have these types of tools in place, whether it's app stores at the point of purchase or social media and gaming platforms in the program. Companies should continue to iterate and further develop these tools but also make sure guardians and educators know about those tools and, more importantly, how to use them. As Shane Tews of the American Enterprise Institute explained, the technology stack refers to the combination of layers that make up our digital experience: 1. Hardware such as smartphones, laptops and gaming consoles 2. Software that includes programs and operating systems 3. Content providers that include app developers, streaming services, social media platforms and gaming services Tews noted that "the key difference is who controls what." As we work to increasingly keep kids safer online, companies need to step up and be responsible (and accountable) for the level in the technology stack that they have the most access and control over. For example, the manufacturer of a device—such as a video game console or tablet—cannot determine whether a game or video contains inappropriate content for kids without information from the game or app where it's coming from. It's the developer providing the game or app that has the knowledge to make that call because of where it lies in the technology stack. There is no foolproof way or single thing that can be done to keep our kids safe online. However, by all working together and everyone playing their part, we can go a long way and continually work toward improving the digital world for kids.

Boeing posts smaller loss as jet deliveries rise
(Reuters) -Boeing reported a smaller second-quarter loss on Tuesday as the U.S. planemaker ramped up jet production and deliveries, recovering from a regulatory crisis and a major strike that halted most production last year. Shares of the company rose 1.5% in premarket trading. After years of grappling with quality issues and production delays on its flagship 737 MAX, Boeing has cautiously ramped up monthly output this year. In May, the company produced 38 737s. Production has been stable since then, according to the company. "As we continue to execute our Safety & Quality Plan, there's more stability in our operations," CEO Kelly Ortberg said in a letter to Boeing employees on Tuesday. The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration had capped the production of Boeing's best selling 737 MAX jets following a mid-air panel blowout in a nearly new jet in January 2024. "We plan to seek FAA approval to increase to rate 42 when our key performance indicators (KPIs) show that we're ready," Ortberg added. It has delivered 206 737 MAX jets through the first half of the year. Wall Street closely tracks aircraft deliveries, because planemakers collect much of their payment when they hand over jets to customers. Boeing also increased 787 production at its plant in Charleston, South Carolina, from five aircraft a month to seven a month. Through the first half of the year, the planemaker has booked 668 orders, or 625 net orders after cancellations and conversions. An improvement in deliveries marks a pivotal step in Boeing's effort to rebound from years of production disruptions and crises that piled on debt, highlighting the urgency of accelerating output to restore financial stability. The planemaker posted a net loss of $612 million, or 92 cents per share, for the quarter through June, compared with $1.44 billion, or $2.33 per share, a year earlier. However, the planemaker continues to face pressure from supply chain disruptions that have delayed production and limited its ability to meet surging aerospace demand. It posted a loss of nearly $12 billion in 2024 due to challenges across its major business units including charges on its defense programs. It also remains exposed to U.S. President Donald Trump's sweeping tariffs, which could increase parts costs and further strain an already fragile supply chain. Boeing's revenue for the quarter through June rose 35% to $22.75 billion.
