Google's antitrust win and the perfect monopoly on search
Adam Berry/Getty Images
A visitor uses a cell phone in front of the Google logo. The search giant isn't operating a search monopoly, according to the Federal Trade Commission.
UPDATE: Google offers its own take at the Google blog.
The big news out of Washington on Thursday morning isn't yet another installment in the fiscal cliff melodrama — it's that Google isn't breaking antitrust laws, the Federal Trade Commission concludes.
The investigation zeroed in on the thrumming heart of Google's business, which has rewarded the California tech colossus with a whopping $239 billion market capitalization: search. This is from the New York Times:
Companies that rely on Google to drive traffic to their sites have complained that Google adjusts its search algorithm to favor its own growing number of commerce sites — including shopping, local listings and travel.
But the [FTC] faced an uphill battle in proving malicious intent — that Google changes its search algorithm to purposely harm competitors and favor itself. Antitrust lawyers say anticompetitive behavior cannot be proved simply by showing that a change in the algorithm affects other Web sites and causes sites to show up lower in results, even though studies have shown that users rarely look beyond the first page of search results.

The Pew Charitable Trusts is driven by the power of knowledge to solve today's most challenging problems. Pew applies a rigorous, analytical approach to improve public policy, inform the public and stimulate civic life.
Sep 15, 2008
Many observers have suggested the 2008 presidential campaign was the first Internet election, in which campaigns and citizens would make extensive use of the Web for organizing, fund-raising, networking, and announcing news.
With roughly seven weeks left in the final phase of the campaign, how are the campaigns using the Web? How developed are their Web campaigns? Which candidate has the edge online, and how so?
A new study by the Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism finds both campaigns' official sites are now quite advanced beyond anything we saw in previous years. For much of the campaign, Obama enjoyed a clear advantage in the new medium. Yet in the last few weeks, much as presidential preference polls have tightened, the McCain campaign has narrowed the gap online, substantially adding features and content since his nomination at the Republican Convention. New features, such as a social networking component, now rivals Obama's. Nonetheless, entering the last turn in the race, Obama's online social network of registered users is more than five times larger than McCain's, according the sites' own accounting, and his site draws almost three times as many unique visitors each week.
Read the full report McCain vs. Obama on the Web on the Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism Web site.

ASU's Jaxon Hood excited for first Territorial Cup
The Sun Devil defensive tackle was recruited by the University of Arizona, who offered him a scholarship. Hood chose to stay closer to home, and has been a key cog in ASU's defense, which is ranked second in the Pac-12.
Hood has three sacks and 22 total tackles this season, in which he's started every game as a true freshman. He can't wait to get his first taste of playing for the Territorial Cup.
"This is one of the reasons that you stay in-state," Hood said Tuesday. "You've seen how big this rivalry gets -- I remember watching the game where James Brooks blocked two kicks and just how exciting that was.
"This is such a big game and there is so much on the line, so I'm very excited."
Hood has another reason to be excited. His older brother, Tevin, is a sophomore defensive lineman at Arizona. This will be the first time that the Hood brothers have faced each other in any organized sport.
"Besides pretty intense games of backyard football and wrestling and all that stuff, this is the first time we've been structured competitively against each other," Hood said. "We'd play games of football in the backyard, and it would always end in tears and fights, so this will be probably a more controlled thing than what we're used to."
So, with a brother behind enemy lines, is there back and forth communcation leading up to the game?
"Not much, we're just focusing on helping our teams winning the game," Hood said. "We've both been pretty mature about the whole thing. There will be more trash talk after game, but right now we're just focused on doing our jobs and making sure our teams come out with a win."

Only in Dreams
(Yes, I already voted this round, but I figured we could just move on anyway haha)
Thank goodness! I really hope TGMTEL is voted out, it's such a cacophonous mess of a song, good in premise but man, the execution could've been so much better - I don't think it even breaks my top 10 post-Pinkerton.
Longtime Sunshine on the other hand is easily one of the greatest things Rivers has ever penned.
Nice try Humpty..............but you know you voted this round already. That's okay if the game lasts an extra day.........I'll be sad when it's over. Of course, we'll do another game a few months after the next album comes out.
the tie is broken!
Exit TGMTEL,no?

I'm really wanting to potty train my 2 year old. I have one other child who is 10 months and am expecting my 3rd in June. I know potty training is usually the childs chioce when they want to start. The thing is my daughter acts like she's tired of diapers because everytime I turn around she's taking off her diaper almost instantly after she pees or poops. I ask her constantly if she has to potty, usually when a few moments after she drinks or eats. She'll either tell me yes and she'll be sitting on the potty for almost a half hour with no effect or tell me no and potty minutes later either in a diaper or on the floor. I try to encourage her with things like music, stickers, crayons and coloring book, or other things that she enjoys but it mostly becomes a thing of her seeming to ask me why she has to use the potty in order to recieve those things. I take her with me to the potty to let her know it's ok, that mommy does it too. I run water to help. I even hold my 10 month old over the potty until he goes to show her that even her brother can do it. Am I doing something wrong? Why am I feeling like she's giving me mixed signals when it comes to using the potty?? I don't think my mop can take much more!! Help please!!!!
think that maybe either she's not ready which doesn't sound like the case judging from what you wrote. or maybe you should remove the diapers/ training pants and put her in panties. When she potties in them she will feel gross and might be more inclined to use the toilet. especially after she understands that the toilet will keep her from feeling gross. Also do you have a training potty for her. I have read that some children are afraid of heights or the big potty, so maybe a training one would work for her. One last idea is to give her lots to drink and take her to the bathroom often (every 20 minutes or so from what i have been reading) when you take the diapers/training pants away. Just say come on lets try to potty. if she doesn't have to go then that's ok... if she does then lots of praise is in order. If she doesn't go then potties in her pants, just take her to the bathroom and clean her up and let her know that she needs to go potty in the toilet, not her pants. then try again next time.
Potty training is tough... Both of my older kids became potty trained when they were closer to 3... I worry about traumatizing them while trying to potty early on making it a bigger thing to them than it already is. Maybe try to transition to a pull up, read the potty training books and try to show her things like really cute underwear that she can wear when she becomes trained. The truth is however that she is more than likely going to do it when she is ready. Good luck and sorry if I don't have a magic solution here.... I can tell you are a bit stressed over this!
I hate to say it, but when she is ready she will be ready. She also probably feels that things are changing with another baby on the way and when stressed children often regress, so that makes it even harder. This has to be her thing or it's not going to happen, so if you take a step back she might take a step forward. Just a thought,

Fibrin degradation products (FDPs) are the substances left behind when clots dissolve in the blood. This article discusses the blood test to measure these products.
FDPs; FSPs; Fibrin split products; Fibrin breakdown products
A blood sample is needed. For information on how this is done, see: Venipuncture
The blood is sent to a laboratory. The laboratory specialist will run tests on the blood sample to measure the products that are left behind when blood clots dissolve.
Your health care provider may tell you to stop taking certain drugs before the test. Drugs that may increase FDPs include barbiturates, heparin, streptokinase, and urokinase.
Do not stop taking any medicine without first talking to your doctor.
When the needle is inserted to draw blood, some people feel moderate pain, while others feel only a prick or stinging sensation. Afterward, there may be some throbbing.
This test is done to see if your clot-dissolving (fibrinolytic) system is working properly. Your doctor may order this test if you have signs of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC)
or another clot-dissolving disorder.
The result is normally less than 10 micrograms per milliliter (mcg/mL).
Note: Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
The example above shows the common measurements for results for these tests. Some laboratories use different measurements or may test different specimens.
Increased FDPs may be a sign of primary or secondary fibrinolysis
(clot-dissolving activity) due to a variety of causes, including:
There is very little risk involved with having your blood taken. Veins and arteries vary in size from one patient to another and from one side of the body to the other. Taking blood from some people may be more difficult than from others.
Other risks associated with having blood drawn are slight but may include:

Thank you, Amy. I've also had a very hard time figuring out how to confront this issue. It is…Read More difficult when it becomes apparent that it just isn't nonsense anymore, it's dangerous nonsense. People will literally die if the anti-vaxx crowd is successful at convincing people not to vaccinate their kids. Potentially a lot of people. When you combine that with the stupidity, outright lies and paranoia displayed by celebrity spokes-people like Jenny McCarthy it becomes really hard to maintain ones composure (oops, I just lost mine). I suppose it's best to treat everyone as one would treat a good friend who is skeptical of modern medicine and scared for their children. As far as the black helicopter people go, I'm not sure what can be done to convince them, since they invariably believe that any data not conforming to their beliefs must the due to a conspiracy of some kind. I've known a lot of publicly funded scientists over the years, and the idea that they could all somehow be conspiring to harm public health in order to enrich corporations is ludicrous and insulting. Part of the problem is that as a result of reasonable skepticism of expert opinion, many people have decided that there is no such thing. Or, even worse, they pick people who have zero expertise but who are good at manipulating their fears. So now we have a huge population of scientifically illiterate people who no longer trust doctors, but are willing to put all their faith in internet scam artists like the "Health Ranger". This can't end well.

Concerned Citizen March 1, 2014 at 04:39 pm
The library is a measure of a society that values access to education for all. I use ebooks at least…Read More once a week. There are many that use the library because of a lack of alternatives. We should use libraries for children to research and read as opposed to the current model of video causing social non-interaction. That aside the argument made of how to support and fund our library is unfair. It is time for all who vote to also take part in what they vote for. It is patently unfair to tax one group by proxy. I would gladly pay for all to have access. But I'm no longer comfortable paying for those that ask me to pay while not having the same obligation. The argument that homeowners are a higher income class is not applicable in Novato. Many homeowners fall into the income bracket as renters. I don't believe there are those who couldn;t afford 50 cents a month per person. That is what it would cost for our 52000+ residents vs the parcel tax levied on a few for the roughly 9000 parcels in town. Libraries are different than schools but that formula should be reconsidered. The argument that good schools help support higher property values is applicable. However the only persons that should have a say any parcel tax should be those with a parcel. One parcel one vote. If you want to have a supplemental tax to support our schools I'm in. But same as libraries if you have kids in the system you should pay at least as much as you are asking me to pay without a child in the system. One vote should equal one fixed dollar contribution. I wonder how many would be so free with my dollars if they had to put their money where their vote is?

Dr. Jack Calareso
President of Anna Maria College
Ten days ago, the world read with fascination and interest the interview conducted with Pope Francis six months into his papacy. For Catholics and non-Catholics alike, Pope Francis has been interesting to listen to and observe as he reveals more and more his approach to leading the Church.
Many, who are often uncomfortable with the grandeur of the hierarchy in contrast to the message of the Gospels, are energized by Pope Francis' choices to live in community and in a more simple lifestyle. His spontaneous and never-ending pastoral approach and his smile are infectious.
But what is more important is to listen … to really listen to his words. While clearly conservative in his theology, Pope Francis seems determined to reframe the world's understanding of the message and meaning of the Church rooted in hospitality to all and a spirit of hope.
The headlines ten days ago focused on the Pope's concern that the focus of the Church in recent years has been too limited to teachings related to abortion, gay marriage and the use of contraception. While clearly affirming these teachings the day after his interview was released, Pope Francis called for "a new balance; otherwise even the moral edifice of the Church is likely to fall like a house of cards, losing the freshness and fragrance of the Gospel."
As one would expect, the news reports simply highlight only the most surprising comments made by the Pope in this interview. I would strongly urge those seriously interested in Pope Francis and his leadership to read the entire interview, readily available online. It helps us to understand better the depth and spirituality of this man. It also helps to understand Jorge Mario Bergoglio's life (For Italian opera fans like me, it was wonderful to read the Pope's reference to Puccini's great work, Turandot, in his response regarding the importance of hope!).
Over the past two weeks, the reactions to the Pope's statements have been relatively few from within the Church. Hopefully, his vision of the Church will be embraced in word and deed by dioceses all over the world. But I wonder?
On the same day that the Pope's interview was released, the House of Representatives in Washington voted to cut $40 billion dollars from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, more commonly known as the Food Stamps program. The rationale for this draconian decision was the improving economy and the waste in the program.
If waste was the primary criterion for reducing government programs, they should all be cut immediately. Administering federal programs of this magnitude have an inherent element of mismanagement and abuse. The fact is that a high number of Americans still cannot afford food and basic sustenance. The percentage of families in Worcester County who qualify for food stamps is 20%. There may be signs of an improving economy, but not among the poorest of our neighbors.
In light of Pope Francis' speech, I have been waiting to hear the American Catholic Church speak out against this potential cut in a critical program in this country. I scan the web and news reports regularly, but have yet to find any statements from Church leaders. I was hopeful when I found an article entitled, "Food Stamp Cuts a Cruel Proposal." But this well written critique of this potential congressional decision was authored by political strategist Donna Brazile.
Maybe Church leaders have been silent because they assume this legislation will not pass the Senate. But maybe they are silent because it does not relate to the limited moral issues so prevalent in the rhetoric today. Maybe it would help if they would read the interview with Pope Francis. Because I wonder … if Pope Francis was an American Cardinal … what would he say? Actually, I think I know!
(As always, your comments and questions are welcome.)
A couple of weeks ago, my blog included an op ed piece I wrote for the local newspaper. The focus of the editorial was a critique of the proposed federal government scorecard for colleges. My main argument was that not all colleges are the same and not all college students are the same. Therefore, a unitary system is neither fair nor accurate when determining an institution's success.
Most readers agreed with my perspective. But many readers objected to one of my contentions that all students deserve a college education. Some argued that not every child in America deserves or is qualified to attend college. I had been thinking about this issue when I came across a recent study conducted by researchers at the University of Michigan.
Whether or not every high school graduate should attend college, no one I know believes that disadvantaged students of ability should be denied access and opportunity. And this research study affirmed strategies that seem to be extraordinarily effective with this population.
For the past 22 years, a non-profit organization called College for Every Student (CFES) has focused on "raising the academic aspirations and performance of underserved youth so that they can prepare for, gain access to, and succeed in college." CFES currently works with 20,000 students in 200 rural and urban schools and districts in 24 states.
A team of researchers from the University of Michigan conducted a study to assess the effectiveness of CFES and its programs. Using a sample of 1,100 middle school students from 21 schools in 10 states, they found that 75% of the participants in the CFES program planned on attending a four-year college compared to only 5% of the students in their control group.
What are the strategies used by CFES? The three key elements of the program are early exposure to college, mentoring, and community service leadership. Participants in the program are selected by the individual school and are named CFES scholars. At the young age of middle school (or even elementary school), CFES scholars learn about the possibility of attending college and are encouraged to begin planning for this important step in their educational lives.
Over the course of several years, CFES scholars interact with mentors both in their schools and on college campus visits to receive guidance and to become familiar with the world and life of a college student. CFES scholars are also provided with the opportunity to exercise leadership in the community in order to develop both skills and confidence.
What is clear from studying the programs and services of CFES and the corroborating data from this research study is that the result is a student who gains confidence in his or her ability to succeed in college, and an inherent expectation that this is the logical and necessary next step after high school. In addition to the ultimate benefit of significantly more CFES scholars attending college, there is also ample evidence that while in the program, these students improve their academic performance, improve their behavior and improve their attendance.
For many disadvantaged young people in this country, a college degree is only a dream. While there will always remain challenges to earning a college degree, programs like CFES are helping us to better understand how to make some dreams become a reality.

Higher education has its fair share of myths, biases and stereotypes. Last week, for example, I provided some evidence to address the bias against the value of online degrees and the myths about on-ground (face to face) instruction.
There are also many myths, biases and stereotypes related to classroom instruction. For example, most people inside and outside of higher education tend to believe that the quality of instruction is better with full-time (tenure track) faculty rather than adjunct or part-time faculty. But the results of a recent research study conducted at Northwestern University challenges this preconception.
Last week, the National Bureau of Economic Research released a paper entitled, "Are Tenure-Track Professors Better Teachers?" The study was based on data drawn from over 15,000 students who attended Northwestern University from 2001-2008. It focused primarily on instructional quality in introductory courses, the courses every student is required to take.
According to the authors of the study, there was "strong and consistent evidence that Northwestern faculty outside of the tenure system outperform tenure track/tenured professors in introductory undergraduate classrooms." These qualitative differences were consistently found across disciplines and subject areas. The differences were even more pronounced for students of "average" ability and those "less qualified."
The data also revealed other interesting trends. Students who took an introductory course taught by an untenured instructor were more likely to take a second course in that same discipline than those instructed initially by a tenure-track/tenured faculty member. Students taught by untenured faculty tended to earn higher grades as well.
Critics of the study point to the facts that it was conducted at a single institution and one that attracts students who are not necessarily reflective of the entire college-bound student population. However, while the authors accept these limitations, they state, "Our results provide evidence that the rise of full-time designated teachers at U.S. colleges and universities may be less of a cause for alarm than some people think, and indeed, may actually be educationally beneficial."
From my perspective, this study's greatest benefit is to help break down the myth or stereotype about adjunct faculty. I doubt that any college or university will use this study to dismantle its full-time, tenure-track faculty. But many institutions utilize many part-time faculty and this study corroborates what some of us already know.
Good teachers are good teachers. Whether full-time or part-time … tenure-track/tenured or adjunct, colleges and universities have great instructors and those who are less inspiring. The common element is not the type of contract or employment status. Rather it's the knowledge and understanding of the material, the creativity and dedication to effective pedagogy, and the abiding commitment to serving the educational and learning needs of the students.
College students are fortunate to have so many wonderful instructors who enter the noble profession of teaching for all of the right reasons. Some pursue their teaching careers full-time … others part-time … but they all share a love for teaching and a dedication to student learning.

More and more colleges and universities are offering online degree programs. The rationale in most cases relates to accessibility and flexibility. Online degrees are accessible to students from anywhere in the world and are not restricted by geographic boundaries and proximity to campus. Online degrees allow learners to engage in the course material at flexible times that better meet the needs of their hectic lives with competing expectations and obligations. Anna Maria College has been offering online degrees for a number of years.
Questions that often get raised relate to the quality of these degree programs. Are they of the same quality as an on-ground (face to face) learning environment? Are they perceived by the public as valid and credible? The educational quality issue has been answered repeatedly through extensive research. Quality learning has much more to do with the instructor, course content, pedagogical approaches, levels of student engagement, etc. than with modality (on-ground or online). Perhaps I will return to this topic in a future blog.
But there is less evidence related to external perceptions. So I was interested in a recent headline that read, "Employers View Online, Traditional Degrees Equally." The article compiled data from a number of research studies conducted by credible organizations … some that engage in online educational programs and services and others that address more widespread higher ed issues. The article itself was sponsored by an institution promoting its own online university. But I think the data is both valuable and valid.
According to studies conducted by the Zogby International Survey and Inside Higher Ed.com, the U.S. News and World Report, the Sloan Consortium, the Society for Human Research Management, and the Online Journal of Distance Learning Administration, employers and recruitment professionals view online degrees and traditional degrees equally if they meet three criteria.
The first criterion is accreditation. Employers and recruiters feel strongly that only online degree programs that are accredited are equivalent to traditional programs. It is interesting to note that U.S. News and World Report, which publishes a list every year of the "Best Online Bachelor's and Master's Degree Programs," will only include those that are regionally accredited.
The second criterion is that the online degree program is offered by a college or university that also has a traditional campus. While 70% of academic leaders in the Sloan Consortium Study expressed some confidence in online only institutions, the percentage increases to 89% if the online program is offered by an institution that also has a traditional campus. This high level of support for programs from colleges and universities with a traditional campus was also expressed by HR Directors, CEOs and hiring managers (Zogby Survey).
The third criterion relates to brand. Online programs are viewed more often as equal to traditional degree programs if the institution offering the program has an established brand. If the college or university has name recognition and a good reputation, the online programs are judged to be the same in quality as the traditional programs.
The growth in online education has been exponential. The reputation of these programs has been negatively impacted by too many for-profit institutions that are viewed as being "diploma mills." What is clear from these studies is that employers and recruiters are more discerning and assess a person's degree carefully. If the degree is awarded from a traditional college, regionally accredited, and well respected, the online degree is equally valued.
As more and more well respected colleges and universities expand their online degree options, this can only be a good thing for those interested in quality education in a more flexible and accessible modality. It is nice to see that students have more and more choices. It is nice to know that these students' efforts will be respected … if they make the right choice!

The Scorecard May Not Tell the Score

Scoring higher ed's success
By Jack Calareso
In recent days, President Obama has unveiled his plan to reform higher education. The plan includes a "report card" for every college and university that measures affordability (tuition rates and increases, scholarships, loan debt), access (percentage of students eligible for Pell grants), and outcomes (graduation rates, transfer rates, graduate earnings, graduate school admissions).
The federal government is not alone in promoting this simplified grading system. For years, families have used published rating systems from magazines, book companies and educationally related organizations to determine college rankings. Ranking systems abound so that you can not only find the college with the highest graduation rates, but the institution that parties the most.
Scorecards and rating systems have become a phenomenon. Self-appointed experts frequently publish lists and assessments based on partial and unsubstantiated data and analyses that are not fully explained or vetted. Sadly, these get published (often self-published on the Internet), read by prospective students, and add to the confusion of college choice.
The fact of the matter is that all college-bound students are not the same. President Obama has often said, and I agree, that every American should have the opportunity for a college education. I would go further and say that every American should have the opportunity to earn a bachelor's degree. But not every student is academically able, and some will need more time and extra support.
My advice to every parent and prospective student is that if you can be admitted to Harvard, Yale or Princeton - and can afford it - go. If you want to be further away from home, Stanford is not a bad choice either. But not every student can either meet the admission standards or afford an Ivy League school. And thankfully, there are colleges and universities willing to admit these students and help them to succeed.
President Obama's plan also calls for colleges to be penalized for low performance with less federal financial aid. While this seems to be a logical outcome to a scorecard approach, I wonder if this will cause colleges and universities to become more selective and only admit students who demonstrate a greater ability to succeed.
As most qualified researchers know, statistics can vary depending on the sources used, methodology and analysis procedures. Don't let skewed data and grading systems compromise the college search process. Use all of the accurate information you can obtain from qualified sources, as well as the college or university itself, and then visit, visit, visit before you make your decision. Not every college is Harvard - but Harvard isn't for everyone.

If you're looking for a story that's going to make waves across the SEC today, look no further than the news that after 15 years as a Georgia assistant, Rodney Garner is joining Gus Malzahn's new staff at Auburn. Garner is one of the nation's top recruiters and has served as Georgia's recruiting coordinator since 1998, under both Jim Donnan and Mark Richt. Garner was UGA's defensive line coach this past season as well as the Dawgs' assistant head coach. He will have the same job titles and responsibilities at AU.
Garner was an All-SEC player on the Plains in the late-1980s. And make no mistake, his homecoming is major coup for the first-year head coach… and serious blow to Georgia as signing day is less than 50 days away.
Garner told The Atlanta Journal Constitution late last night that his decision was not about the significant raise he'll receive:
"It was a very difficult decision. I've been approached many times about this opportunity. But it's my alma mater. It may be more of a pride thing, just looking at where they are right now and felling like I really wanted to be a part of getting them back on track. I just felt like God was leading me in this direction. It's something I prayed about and it was not an easy decision. I would not have left for any other reason than Auburn."
Here's how Georgia has fared nationally in Rivals.com's recruiting rankings over the past decade:
2013 (current class): 9th
2012: 12th
2011: 5th
2010: 15th
2009: 6th
2008: 7th
2007: 9th
2006: 4th
2005: 10th
2004: 9th
Not a bad run. Now, Garner can't take sole credit for that work and there's no guarantee he can help Auburn match Georgia's recruiting prowess. But if you're a Tiger fan today, there's reason for optimism. And if you're a Bulldog fan, there's reason for disappointment.
On his way out the door, Garner did throw some love in Richt's direction, saying: "Mark has been very good to me and I want people to know that. People need to recognize the body of work that Mark has done here. Here's a guy who has been at Georgia 12 years and he's gone to the championship game five times. Priot to him coming there, they'd never been to that game."
Of course, Richt will now have to get to that game for the first time without Garner coordinating his recruiting efforts.
No two ways around it — a big get for Auburn and Malzahn.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Red Cross volunteers from the Piedmont are standing by to go to the Northeast if Hurricane Sandy causes massive damage there.
The storm from the ocean is expected to combine with a winter storm coming from the west to create a massive weather event around New York, New Jersey, Maryland, and Pennsylvania.
One logistics volunteer from the 15-county Charlotte Red Cross region already left Saturday morning to do advance planning. Three more left Saturday night, and two more will leave Sunday morning.
The latter five volunteers will help set up and maintain shelters for evacuees. They will stage in White Plains, New York, until they are dispatched to where they are needed.
In all, as many as 50 volunteers could respond from the Charlotte area. Twenty to 30 are currently standing by.
Two of the region's Emergency Response Vehicles, or "ERV's," are also on standby. The trucks distribute meals to evacuees, volunteers, and victims in the hardest-hit areas.
