WASHINGTON — Despite a moderate increase in overall consumer prices, retail prices for apparel fell sharply last month, marking the largest January decrease since 1949, according to the Labor Department, which released the Consumer Price Index on Friday.
This story first appeared in the February 24, 2003 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
Retail prices for all apparel fell 0.9 percent in January, while apparel prices fell 1.9 percent against January 2002, continuing a pattern of year-over-year declines.
Women's apparel retail prices fell sharply by 1.1 percent in January against December, on a seasonally adjusted basis. Compared with January 2002, women's retail prices plunged 2.9 percent.
Girls' retail apparel prices finally succumbed to the price deflation plaguing other categories and fell 1.6 percent in January. However, those prices gained by 2.8 percent against a year ago.
"The industry faces a flood of cutthroat priced imports, weakening domestic and global demand and an overhang of nearly 35 percent in expensive, idle capacity," said Charles McMillion, chief economist at MBG Information Services. "Today's report of severe deflation in the industry indicates just how little pricing power the industry has all along the supply chain and suggests the remainder of the year is likely to be unusually difficult."
Steve Spiwak, an economist at Retail Forward, said apparel price deflation eased up last year going into the holidays, as retailers steadily pared down inventories.
But January data shows year-over-year prices declined more than they did in December, he noted.
"That was driven by some extra discounting and price cutting to clear out higher inventories that lagged into the first part of the year," Spiwak said. "This is a last effort to clear out winter gear and make room for spring merchandise so it will be a short-term blip for apparel prices."
He said he expects price declines to continue in line with continued cautious spending, war worries and market stagnation.
But John Mothersole, senior economist at Global Insight, said he does not expect the apparel retail price declines to be repeated next month.
"As much as you want to stimulate business, you can't cut prices forever," said Mothersole.
In the overall economy, consumer prices rose 0.3 percent, driven by higher energy costs, which were a result of a severe winter and fears of a U.S. war with Iraq.
Prices for suits and separates fell 1.5 percent in January against December and plunged 3.6 against a year ago; retail prices for outerwear fell 1.4 percent last month and dropped 0.4 percent against January 2002. Retail prices for dresses fell 0.1 percent last month, but inched up 0.8 percent year-over-year, while prices for underwear, nightwear, sportswear and accessories fell 0.3 percent in January, but fell 4 percent against January 2002.

Tennessee's heralded mid-term freshman made his collegiate debut against the No. 2 team in America (Kentucky) Saturday at Thompson-Boling Arena and wound up playing nearly half the game (17 minutes). The 6-foot-8, 270-pound Memphis native made 4 of 5 shots, finishing with 9 points, 4 rebounds and an assist. He created such a buzz among Vol fans that the fact Tennessee lost 65-62 was almost incidental.
"He played a hell of a game," senior teammate Cameron Tatum said. "For a freshman coming out and giving us the spark we needed, I commend the kid. He wasn't too high and wasn't too low. He stayed even-keel during the ups and downs of the game, and I commend him tremendously for that."
Considering that he hadn't played in an actual game since AAU ball last July, Stokes showed tremendous potential and very little rust. He also showed surprising stamina for a guy who missed his senior season of high school ball after transferring from Central to Southwind last summer. He even showed poise ... no small feat considering he had to cope with a capacity crowd of 21,678, an elite opponent and national TV cameras.
"I felt good going into the game," he said. "A scared man is a dead man, so I really wasn't worried about all of that. It felt different with the atmosphere of the crowd, something I hadn't been used to the past few months."
Stokes watched nearly nine minutes before taking the floor following a media timeout with 11:18 left in the first half. He wasted no time making his presence felt, sinking an 8-foot half-hook at the 10:48 mark, exactly 30 seconds after entering the lineup.
"It definitely helped," he said of making his first collegiate field-goal attempt. "I felt pretty good once that shot went in."
Apparently so. He was called for a foul while battling for a rebound at the 9:57 mark, then swished a 15-footer that bumped Tennessee's lead to 21-15 with 9:12 remaining in the half.
Stokes' rugged style of play flustered Kentucky's Terrence Jones, who was called for throwing an elbow at 8:52. Stokes left to a hearty ovation at 8:28 but returned to action less than two minutes later. He immediately outmuscled a pair of Wildcats for a rebound that led to a Jeronne Maymon transition layup.
Stokes took a charge with 1:38 remaining in the half, nullifying a layup by Kentucky's Marquis Teague, then parlayed an offensive rebound into a putback with 1:30 left to give the Vols a 34-28 intermission lead. He finished his first half of collegiate hoops 3 for 3 from the field, with 6 points and 3 rebounds in just nine minutes of action.
Kentucky did a better job on the inside in the second half, limiting Stokes to one basket and one rebound after the break. Still, his debut was pretty impressive.
Noting that he was playing "for my team and the state of Tennessee," Stokes conceded that he had "a lot of adrenalin going through" and was "a little worried how I'd do coming out of high school." Now that those first-game jitters are out of the way, he expects to be more composed and efficient when the Vols visit Georgia on Wednesday evening.
"I plan to build off of that," he said. "I'll watch film — something I haven't been used to doing — and learn some defensive plays because I made a lot of defensive mistakes."
Because he joined the Vols 15 games into the season, Stokes represented a potential threat to team chemistry. He says his teammates have accepted him with open arms, however.
"They accepted me pretty well," he said. "Maymon and Cam and Trae Golden — all those guys — have given me nothing but love. Coming in out of high school, I feel like I needed that ... from the coaches also. I love Tennessee."
From the reaction of the capacity crowd, it's apparent Tennessee loves him, too.
All but lost in Stokes' debut was the fact the Big Orange and Big Blue provided a national ESPN audience with an exceptional basketball game.
A Stokes layup in transition gave Tennessee an eight-point lead (42-34) with 15:00 to play. Kentucky used an 18-8 run to ease ahead 52-50, taking its first lead since 28-25. It was 54-all with 6:58 minutes remaining but Tennessee suddenly went ice cold.
Stokes had a layup blocked by 6-foot-10 Anthony Davis, then Tatum and Golden missed back-to-back 3-point tries early in the shot clock. Turnovers by Tatum and Stokes were followed by a missed layup and a missed dunk by Kenny Hall. Kentucky outscored the Vols 8-0 during that six-minute drought to go up 62-54 with 53 seconds left.
Skylar McBee and Tatum hit consecutive 3-pointers that narrowed the gap to 62-60 but Darius Miller nailed two free throws with 20 seconds remaining to seal Kentucky's victory.
Tatum (16 points) and Maymon (15) were the big scorers for Tennessee, with Maymon (10) also leading the rebounders. Golden managed just 2 points but contributed 6 assists and just 2 turnovers for the Vols, who slip to 8-9 overall and 1-2 in SEC play.
Tennessee did a superior job shutting down Kentucky's perimeter scorers as Miller (1 for 4), Teague (3 for 8) and Doron Lamb (1 for 7) combined to make just 5 of 19 field goal tries. Point guard Teague also committed 5 turnovers against just 1 assist.
Tennessee's interior defense was not nearly as stingy. Davis scored 18 points for Kentucky (17-1, 3-0), while forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist added 17 points and 12 rebounds.
Tennessee led for 30 of the game's 40 minutes only to lose due to its finishing fade. Fatigue may have been a factor, since the Vols played a late game at Starkville on Thursday night, flew back to Knoxville in the wee hours of Friday morning, then played the Wildcats roughly 24 hours later. To his credit, Tennessee's head coach refused to use that as an excuse.
"You have to get out and play and perform. You can't make excuses," Cuonzo Martin said. "There were times we should've gotten offensive rebounds, times we got the ball knocked out of our hands when we should've made layups. We have to do a better job of finishing the game."

The Warrior
To live and die by the sword is a choice not to be ignored.
I fight so that you with the pen may tell of men that where once
Courageous and great.
Even though you may hate me for what I do, before each day is through know that I fight for you.
I fight for the right to breathe and to run, to have sons to carry my name, not for the fame or the honor, but simply to be a father.
It is not our wish to die or have our widows cry when our time on earth is through , merely I say to you, it is to see the beauty of the land so mysterious and grand that a single man can not fully understand that which warriors can.
If my blade dares break then this vow I shall make to one and all.that I shall not fall without a fight , I shall not go silently into the night , and when men hear my name they will know of my fame.
To my brothers at arms , fear no harm and in unison join me in a round of in Heaven there is not beer, for it will quench your fear , it will make you focused and strong as the battle's long and arduous contest is fought and the destruction is wrought and from the ashes hear my cry and rally around me fellow warriors as we die like men , so our children hear the heroes we have been on this day.
The enemy may be nasty, rough and tough, but they have never seen the likes of us my fellow warriors.
Today our might will strike them down and they will fall to the ground and be beaten this day.
For we are warriors and we fear not death, dark, light or cold, but we are bold enough to take anything that comes our way this day. We fear no man or beast to say the least and let us remember it this day.
When they start their charge my fellow warriors let them see that we are more fierce then they, let their priests pray , for I tell you my warriors god is with us this day, and whether we live or die make sure to look to the sky and yell the battle cry:

Developed by a Veterinarian, the Drinkwell Multi-Tier Pet Fountain provides 100 oz of fresh, filtered water to your pet. The Multi Level fountain is designed with upper and lower drinking dishes for easy access for more than one pet.
A patented free-falling stream of water entices your pet to drink more and continually aerates the water with healthful oxygen. A charcoal filter removes bad tastes and odors, giving your pet the best way to stay hydrated! The fountain features two places for pets to drink from, the elevated dish and the lower bowl.

Great idea, but will the charcoal filter eliminate any & all vitamins and minerals introduced into the osmosis (dead water)
due to our in-home osmosis drinking water is treated by us via
ConcenTrace ,Trace Mineral Drops
Anyone know ...? or maybe Radio Fence can research this.

My cats love this fountain! It's very quiet and holds enough for my six large kitties. They love the different levels, some drink from the top, some from the waterfall and some from the large base. It's easy to take apart and clean and the plastic feet on the bottom keep the cats from scooting it around.

Customer service is of course not available on weekends -- cannot call during the week as i work also -- not the best customer service here-- left a voicemail and an alternate person to call -- anyways the pump went out within 2 months of intermittent use -- need a replacement --- warranty whatnot -- also the fountain is a little smaller then the picture makes it look -- hopefully we get this resolved

With 12 cats I needed a way to provide a lot of fresh water without the hassle of refilling the smaller fountains multiple times per day. I found it with the Drinkwell Multi-level Pet Fountain. Well constructed, quiet and plenty of water capacity (3+ gallons), My cats like the motion of the water over the spillway, which helps to keep the water cooler. This encourages them to drink more water which in turn keeps them healthier in the long run. I (and my cats) are very happy with this purchase.
Posted by Gail on Feb 10th 2014
My cats love it because they can get fresh running water and I love it because it is the quietest fountain I have ever bought!!
Posted by Unknown on Dec 11th 2013
This is a nice size for my 2 cats. We top it up daily and clean it every week or 2. It is compact but fits a lot of water in it. Not to loud but is noticeable in a silent room. The dogs want to use it as well but they drink it down to quickly and are messy drinkers! Would buy this again!
Posted by dan on Nov 26th 2013
After buying a different fountain this model offered exclusively by radio fence is the unit that's perfect!
Posted by Unknown on May 18th 2013
This fountain is so easy to clean and I don't have to clean it every like I did my old fountain. Very quiet and looks good too.
Posted by Happy Cat on May 6th 2013
I had researched many different fountains and I decided on this one because I really liked the two levels of drinking. My Cat loves his fountain.
It is a little bigger than I had anticipated, and would be great for multi cat house, I only have one cat and it's a little big.
But overall, love the fountain and it is very quiet!

"Strengthening the number of women in leadership roles in sport is key to addressing gender balance at all levels," said Judy Murray, one the most influential figures in tennis, at the second Grand Women's Summit held on ladies day of the Crabbie's Grand National Festival at Aintree Racecourse.
Judy joined Rugby World Cup winner Maggie Alphonsi MBE, Shelley Alexander; BBC editorial lead for women's sport and Nick Rust; Chief Executive of the British Horseracing Board on the panel, which was hosted by Channel 4 Racing's Tanya Stevenson. A room of 125 delegates heard the speakers' experiences and views on gender diversity in sport at the summit hosted by Aintree Racecourse and Women in Racing.
Maggie Alphonsi spoke on her transition from rugby to presenting sport. "Since retiring from playing rugby and moving into broadcasting I'm much more aware of the men to women imbalance in presenting roles and on the administration side of rugby. I had to put myself out there as the only female pundit on men's sport and want to encourage other women to do the same so it becomes normal to hear women commentating on sport across all subjects."
Nick Rust added: "Horseracing has plenty of positive stories in terms of women competing on a level playing field. Female jockeys are literally shining beacons, but there are not enough of them at leading level. There has also been a shift of more women in racecourse management roles but we have not conquered things yet and there is work to be done with regard to improving horseracing gender diversity in the administration, participation and engagement side of the sport."
Nick also announced that in November 2015 The Horsemen's Group, the Racecourse Association and the British Horseracing Authority came together to work on strategy, recognising that working in isolation is not the way forward to influence perception and attitudes and bring management and diversity together.
During the discussion Judy outlined her approach when establishing her Miss-Hits programme. She took the time to ask what stopped youngsters, girls in particular, in taking up tennis or prevented them from carrying on in the sport and addressed each one. She delivered a programme that tapped into existing workforces that young children were already familiar with and didn't have to be run by tennis coaches. The approach is gentle, child-friendly and contemporary. It gradually builds up co-ordination and confidence in comfortable and social environments providing the skills and confidence to then take in to mini-tennis and beyond.
Maggie recalled the event that started her career. At 16 she was selected to represent GBR in Touch Rugby and needed to raise £1,000 to take part. Knowing her family couldn't afford it she approached her head of year and was told to take a bucket to each class in her year and make a presentation as to why she needed the funds and ask for donations. Her efforts were match-funded and the target was achieved. This taught Maggie a valuable early lesson in confidence and leadership. Her sport has taught her how to fail, how to recover and how to become resilient.

Former GB Fed Cup Captain
"I stepped down from the Fed Cup team this year as I wanted to be a granny… and teach my grand daughter how to dance, of course."
BBC editorial lead for women's sport
"I was inspired to take the newly created role as lead for women's sport at the BBC after Lizzie Armitstead won Team GB's first medal at the London Olympics. Interviewed just after she crossed the line to win silver, Lizzie used that moment of glory to highlight the iniquities of her sport. So there were three coaches for the Team GB men cyclists who raced the day before – Lizzie didn't have one. The tactics for the men's race had been perfected over six months whereas Lizzie sat down with teammate Emma Pooley in a cafe a few days before to work out their race plan. To me the implication was that had Lizzie been treated equally then she might have won gold. So here was a job where I could play my part in helping to bring about that change."

"Life is measured by the impact you have on other people."
Chief Executive British Horseracing Authority
"Horseracing is the second highest-attended sport in the UK, next to football, yet 40% of those booking tickets for racing fixtures are women. We need to pay attention to this."
Leading Jump jockey
"I see myself equal to any jockey when on board a horse, but understand that there are some challenges for women involved in sport. If I can be a role model and inspire any young person to consider a career in horseracing that's great. Many people say that if I win the National, I would be the first female to do so, I don't see it like that, I just think it would be great to win a Grand National!"

Skip to comments.Pay $500 more in tuition at DevBootCamp if you are male, white, or Asian
Posted on 06/25/2014 8:18:06 AM PDT by reaganaut1
We offer a $500 scholarship if you're female, a veteran of the U.S. Military, or from an ethnic minority group underrepresented in the software engineering field (African American, Chicano/Latino, Native American, Pacific Islander).
(Excerpt) Read more at devbootcamp.com ...
You can give a scholarship to anyone you want.
Is this a private organization?
If so, they can do as they please........................
In general, no, businesses cannot charge different groups different prices. Either the civil rights laws should protect everyone or no one.
Institutionalized discrimination.
Have an educational institution give scholarships only to white, heterosexual, Christian, males and see how long before the federal lawsuits begin.
They actually do that in historically black schools.
Sure you can. Try offering one where eligibility is limited to males, whites or Asians. Let me know what happens.
There you go.....using logic and reason again.....................
Provided that the private business is not subsidized by the taxpayers (and none of them should be), a business should be able to do what it wants. If they like making money, they will come up with a reasonable pricing model. The civil rights laws are silly, as they assume that a business owner would refuse to accept someone's money without good cause.
Its worse than that. They really aren't giving "scholarships." They are setting a price point and then jacking up the price on whites and Asians. Its not like they have some magic pot of money to dole out while keeping prices for everyone else low.
There are good reasons why certain groups are under-represented in the field. The cost of tuition does not number among them.
I am an urban public school teacher. A number of years ago, a received a scholarship packet to distribute to my 12th graders.
It was from one of Bill Gates's foundations. The foundation offered tuition assistance to those 12th graders who were going to college as science majors.
But not every such student was eligible. Eligibility was based on your ancestral nationality.
There was a very long list. It was like a world atlas. Algerian, Sudanese, Pacific Islander, Brazilian. It went on and on.
Then I noticed something. There was not a single European country on the list. Even Russia did not make the list. Gates could have saved himself a lot of ink by simply stating: no whites.
I threw the packet in the trash. To h*ll with that sort of thing.
Some might say that I denied those on the list from a chance at a scholarship. That might be true. But the whole concept was unethical and evil from the start. I wanted no part of it.
a 70 - 90 hour week? they must be kidding
Right. It's a discount based on race.
It's like if I owned a night club, and set the entry cover-charge at $100, but offered an 80%-off discount if you were visibly of European descent. I would have few, if any, non-white customers.
You did the right thing.
Why help in the demise and erasure of your own people?
Maybe we should start up the United Caucasian College Fund... you know, "because a mind is a terrible thing to waste..." and all that...
And, you'd have the State shut you down really quick.
Who's got "privilege"?
sounds like a good excuse for men to indicate on their application that they "identify as a female", surely they have scholarships for that!
Thats true, but imagine the outrage at a scholarship intended for white males only.
Goodness, somebody would be fired, boycotted and have death threats.
But this... "no white males".... perfectly acceptable.
In the current legal climate, if you say you are female (no matter what your genitals and chromosomes look like, or that you have a beard) then they must accept you as being female.
And if you can "identify" as female, why not as "black" or "hispanic"?
If the packet was obviously excluding anyone of African ancestry, there'd be "outrage",
so, you did the right thing.
entry cover-charge at $100, but offered an 80%-off discount if you were visibly of European descent. I would have few, if any, non-white customers
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Now, you know that would NEVER fly.....
Remember a few years back when some 'Men' lodged law suits because 'Hooters' would not even allow them to apply for a job and others sued over establishments offering 'Ladies Night' saying it was unfair to Males (and I guess the LGMVDSLSMFT crowd felt 'insulted' when she-boys were not included as 'Ladies Night' eligible).
I personally thought the suits frivolous BUT it may have brought light to just how 'idiotic' we have become.—
Of course, the only ones that really noticed were those of us that knew we were/are in 'trouble'.
"...America is (or was) supposed to be a melting pot, with advancement due to one's ability..."
You didn't start this - the other side did. They took advantage of the natural and compassionate decency of American folks - our people - and used it against us.
It's called Self-Preservation and Cultural Survival now, unfortunately. That's the reality we have to deal with.
But yes, I get your point as well.
Black privilege.
DevBootCamp should be outed for the racists they are.
But on their own webpage, they cannot figure out how to put in a decent left margin, and they have a tab that overlaps the main body of text -- and you cannot remove it or collapse it.
And their 'Alumni' are a bunch of failed 3rd world nobodies. Don't sweat it.
Legality doesn't enter into the discussion. There are many laws that are invalid, and don't apply.
It's WRONG. Unfair.
or native American, based on high cheekbones and family lore
"How the heck can a "scholarship" awarded by an educational institution based on race or sex be legal?"
Imagine the uproar if a scholarship fund was earmarked "Whites Only."
I actually DO have that claim, based on pretty much the same thing - plus pictures & diary entries.
Anyway... I haven't tried to "game" it as I'm no democRat.
I read the page, and did some reviews. $12,500 for essentially four months of intensive coding, or about $800 per week, not including food and lodging is rather harsh. To be blunt, if you have the Internet and put in the same amount of time, and you can join a couple of coding groups as well, you can probably do the same thing in maybe a little more time for considerably less money. Perhaps the job placement may be worth it IF you can get a job, but I'll be blunt: if the school were THAT confidant you can get a job, they would not require the money up front.
Frankly, I would see this as an opportunity for a competitor to come in and offer the same thing, but with a job GUARANTEE for graduates that pass. If such jobs are really in demand, this would be a no-brainer for the most part.
I am starting the Transracial movement to take advantage of these programs. Whites can feel and identify as any race they want. Same for blacks, Asians, arabs, Persians, Indians, everyone. Everyone can chose whichever race they identify with and be granted the entitlements given to the race of their choosing.
If some freakshow that chopped off his own penis and stuffed a bunch of silicon in his chest can identify as a woman than I can sure identify myself as a Filipino.

For the first time in at least 125 years, Giant Sequoias in the southern Sierra Nevada Mountains of California are showing significant amounts of "dieback" in their foliage due to several years of drought.
The U.S. Forest Service contributed emergency funding to a collaborative research project involving scientists from U.C. Berkeley, Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks, U.S. Geological Survey, andCarnegie Airborne Observatory to examine the effects of the current historic drought on Giant Sequoias.
If they get adequate water and nutrients, Giant Sequoias can live to be well over 3,000 years. They are the largest single-stem tree species in the world, with respect to wood volume and mass, and they grow best in a climate of snowy winters and dry summers. A big decline in snow pack in California over the last few years is a major reason for the observed dieback.
Ambrose and his colleagues intend to construct a "vulnerability map" for the Giant Sequoias using a combination of traditional ground-based monitoring and data collected aerially by the Carnegie Airborne Observatory. The map will reveal which stands of trees are the most susceptible to drought conditions, allowing managers to prioritize those stands most in need of prescribed fire, mechanical thinning, or other treatments.
"Obviously, given the water needs of Giant Sequoias, we cannot water an entire forest during periods of extended drought," Ambrose said.

Super Bowl Ads Hit Web Before Big Game
Do you remember a time when you would watch the Super Bowl for the ads? Mainly because your favorite team wasn't in the game, or post-1984 (the year of the famous Apple Macintosh ad), when advertisers started producing million-dollar ads that everyone would talk about the next day.
See also: Super Bowl XLV: The technology behind the event and the Cowboys Stadium [video]
Those days are over - Super Bowl advertisers are now leaking their ads on the Web before they debut during the game, generating video views on their sites in advance before the opening kickoff begins. Here's a roundup of some of the ads we've discovered already - we'll update them as more are released:
Volkswagen Commercial: The Force Darth Vader, little kids and a car. 'Nuff said. This video already has more than 1 million views on YouTube.
Volkswagen Commercial: Black Beetle Speaking of Volkswagen, they've also released this commercial showcasing the new Black Beetle. I'm not sure if this is a Super Bowl ad or just good timing.
Audi Big Game 2011 Teaser - Startled Smart (Part 1) Luxury automaker Audi has a "Scared Straight" spoof that shows life in a "luxury prison".
Audi Big Game 2011 Teaser - Kenny G Riot Suppressor (Part 2) Second spoof of life in the luxury prison, with Kenny G's role as a riot suppressor (he plays soothing music to calm down the inmates).
Bridgestone Teaser - Reply All We're not sure yet how tires relates to an office worker who hits "Reply-All" to an e-mail message, but this Bridgestone Tires teaser ad has us intrigued. Mainly because we despise people who automatically hit "Reply-All" to messages that they shouldn't.
Bridgestone Teaser - Carma This is more like it - a car with tires, a funny animal and a tree falling.
2011 GM Chevy Super Bowl Commercial "Bumblebee" We're not sure if this is an official Super Bowl 2011 ad or not, but it features Bumblebee from the Transformers movie, so it looks pretty official to us. Plus it's funny.
NEW Uncensored E*Trade Baby Not sure whether this is a Web-only video or if it will air during the Super Bowl, but this funny clip features the E*Trade Baby (always funny).
Kung Fu Panda 2 Super Bowl TV Spot "We Will Wok You" Among the many movies that will be teased during the game, this one is for the Kung Fu Panda 2 movie coming out later this summer.

Veterinarian James Block has dedicated his life to helping his four-legged patients.
Now, he's going to focus on helping himself and his family.
Block's mother died of Alzheimer's disease and he wants to know if he or his little boy is at risk. That's why he is planning to sign up for a prevention study investigating a new drug that targets a major risk factor for Alzheimer's.
"I would be very willing and eager to participate to see if I have predisposition through genetic influence or evidence of early Alzheimer's, or the lesions," Block said.
This summer, the A4 study will enroll 1,000 people between the ages of 65 and 85 with normal thinking and memory function who have evidence of amyloid plaque buildup in the brain.
Dr. Ranjan Duara, a neurologist at Mount Sinai Medical Center, pointed out the importance of studying the amyloid protein.
"We know that the amyloid starts being deposited in the brain typically at least 15 years before the onset of the disease and as much as 30 years before the onset of the disease," Duara explained. "The greater the amount of amyloid there is the redder the image tends to be."
Volunteers must undergo a PET scan, where they're injected with a special tracer that highlights amyloid in the brain.
The investigational drug, solanezumab, is designed to target and remove amyloid from the brain. The study participants will get a monthly infusion of the drug or a placebo for three years.
Researchers are hoping to learn two things.
"Do we have a way of treating the disease before it starts and secondly is amyloid really the cause of the disease," Daura said.
Finding those answers could change the future for Block and the rest of us.
The Wien Center for Clinical Research is one of more than 50 A4 study sites in the United States. The principal investigators are Dr. Reisa Sperling at Harvard and Dr. Paul Aisen at UCSD. To enroll, call 800-272-3700 to ask about trial match.

Debbie Duncan – The First Lady of Song
She's Superb on funky upbeat workouts, tender ballads and all kinds of jazz numbers… she energizes the ordinary and puts her stamp on everything she does.
Debbie Duncan may be considered the upper Midwest's "best-kept-musical secret"
but she has become a local legend and treasure in her home of Minneapolis. Her personality, vitality, and versatility all contribute to that fact. She is a terrific entertainer, and this is certainly part of her appeal. Most importantly, however, "she's a superb vocalist, probably the finest in the area/" [Bob Protzman, St. Paul Pioneer Press]
Debbie was raised in Detroit by parents steeped in jazz, and was surrounded by the vibrant sound of Motown that was sweeping the country. She also has a strong love of folk, classical, and gospel music. The combination of these influences has given her the ability to blue the lines between jazz and popular music, and to sing with a rare level of emotional conviction that draws the audience into the heart of a song. She can move from a whisper to a fever pitch in the breath of a phrase and testigy in a way that commands the listeners rapt attention. Her choice of songs reflects her background. It ranges from jazz standards by great American composers to obscure bluesy sounds [bu Oscar Brown, Jr.] to popular music [by writers like Carol King]. Always, the treatment is Debbie's alone.
Debbie hones her skills through years of experience. She studied classical voice for 14 years, including 4 years at Wayne State University. In Detroit she recorded back-up vocals for Mitch Ryder and Bob Seger. She then spent several years in the Los Angeles music scene recording back-up vocals for various artists and performing with her own jazz groups in popular nightclub settings.
Originally brought to Minneapolis by Rupert's Nightclub. This ambitious and widely popular new club featured only the strongest performers and a crack 10-piece band. Jon Bream of the Minneapolis Star and Tribune raved: "Duncan is quite simply the star of the show… she's superb on funky upbeat workouts, tender ballads and all kinds of jazz numbers; she energizes the ordinary and puts her stamp on everything she does."
She soon got noticed by the rest of the Twin Cities music community and began working extensively with her own trio. Composed of master pianist Don Stille, bassist Gary Raynor [formerly in Sammy Davis Jr's trio] and Phil Hey [one of the finest bop drummers in the Midwest], they found themselves in constant demand. Debbie has since then surrounded herself with some of the Twin Cities finest musicians creating many different sound, colors, and textures.
She started collecting awards; Best Female Jazz Vocalist, Best Jazz Vocalist, Best Female Performer, Best Jazz Group, Best Jazz CD: Minnesota Music Awards; Best Female Jazz Vocalist: Minnesota Black Music Awards.
As her reputation grew, touring musicians began to learn about her and inviting her to sit in on their performances.
Debbie has sung with Bobby Watson and Horizon, Roy Hargrove, Bobby Lyle, Jack McDuff, John Hendricks, Mark Murphy, Chicago's legendary Von Freeman, Dee Dee Bridgewater, and Rececca Paris. She received rave reviews opening for greats such as Herbie Hancock, Stephan Grapelli, Miles Davis, Lou Rawls and Joe Henderson. She also sang on Jimmy McGriff's CD, "In a Blue Meed", where her track of Dr. Feelgood was the most-played tune on that CD.
Debbie has now expanded her musical horizons nationally to such places as the legendary "Snug Harbor" in New Orleans, "The Green Mill" in Chicago, "Bay Fest Blues Festival" in Mobile Alabama, "Alabama Blues and Jazz Federation" in Montgomery, "Black Hills Jazz Festival" in Black Hills South Dakota, the "Sioux Falls Jazz Festival" in South Dakota and the "KBEM Jazz Festival" in Minneapolis Minnesota.
Let's not leave out the Eastern area. Debbie has performed at the Baltimore Museum of Arts, Montpelier Art Museum in Laural Maryland, Studio 57 in Washington D.C., and at "Don't Tell Mama" in New York city. We certainly can't forget her being invited back two years in a row to the Latitudes Hotel in Paris, 1996-1997. Debbie performed at the Du Maurier Jazz Festival, and various other jazz cenus in Vancouver, B.C.
Duncan is a very civic-minded, conscientious person often donating her time and talents to organizations geared to helping others. She's often seen performing in benefits for AIDS, Women's Abuse, Black College Funds, Alzheimers, Senior Citizens and book giving programs for kids. She's been featured on complication discs benefiting organizations such as Camp Heartland for Kids with AIDS, and Memory Moments for Alzheimers. For the past five years she has been an instructor at Music Tech College teaching a Vocal performance workshop, helping young, upcoming performers to hone their talents.
Debbie an entertainer constantly evolving in her craft, continues to grow in her artistry. her 1995 CD release and holiday concert, performed at the renowned Guthrie Theater "proved that she just keeps getting better", Bret Robson, Star-Tribune Music Review. Her CD "Live at the Dakota" has and still is drawing much deserved attention nationally. She is also the featured vocalist on Adi Yeshaya's big band CD [Nice one for Boo]. She recently released a wonderful new CD "travelin' at the Speed of Love". Duncan is always pressing forward, digging deep into her creative energies, ever moving towards her destiny.
As word spreads even more about this talented and versatile performer, she is poised to become a major voice in American music. And she deserves to be, for she has earned the praise of those who have heard her with a constant commitment to her art. Critical phrases like "Stole the Show", "Star of the Show", "Blew away the crowd". and "No such thing as a sub par performance by the versatile Duncan" are common in her reviews.
They are responding to a rare combination on personality and vocal talent that promises to build an expanding base of renown wherever she sings.
"Thank you for your very professional and prompt response. I went to look for answers to my own questions and quickly realized tha the information I was requesting was very easy to find. As were the videos and the instructions. In fact everything has been perfect so far. This is by far the most well supported theme I have ever had the pleasure to work with. Yes, I have purchased it and it is working great. Lots of wonderful options. I wished I had found you before I spent money on a competitors theme. Thanks again for the great support and for a great product. "
"If I could give 100 stars for support and attention to detail I definitely would. I've purchased a good number of WordPress themes from various developers that look good on Themeforest but after you buy them you find numerous problems, bugs, crazy admin and very very poor support. I purchased the Avada theme and there were a couple of problems too, but the guys from ThemeFusion were remarkable – I really mean this. The speed of support and attention to detail is quite phenomenal. If you are considering buying this theme at all then take it from me, you will be extremely pleased. Thanks very much to Luke & Muhammad!"
"I have to echo sarumbear's post on the previous page (82), I too can highly recomend this theme for it's ease of use and support. Hell I manufacture cupboards for a living and have no previous experince with web design, so only use this to build our own company website and am finding it so easy, all the work is done for you. To the Avada team – thank you ALL for all the hard work especially after this huge update when you have released a further update the minute a problem was encountered. PS:- Mell I often have a good laugh at your responses to difficult customers"
"Hi, I just wanted to say thanks for the great theme. I'm finding new ways to improve it every day and find that it's been the most user-friendly theme I've ever purchased. I am practically computer illiterate and know extremely little if anything at all about code, CSS, or any of the inner workings of a website. The Avada theme removes all the worry, hassle, frustration and angst that beginners (and novices) feel when designing websites. If you can read and follow directions, this theme is for you. I've tried a hundred plug-ins with other themes and the Avada theme makes almost all of them unnecessary and obsolete."

Letter from the President & Board Chairman
Gail DeBoer
President & CEO
Jim Rockwood
Board Chairman
Thank you for your continued membership at SAC Federal Credit Union. We are pleased to report that 2015 was another exciting and phenomenal year, highlighted by a number of outstanding achievements.
In 2014, we completed a core banking system conversion. This new system is providing SAC better operating efficiencies, greater levels of security and a platform for future technology enhancements.
With the new system, additional measures have been put in place to not only provide enhanced security of member information, but protection from the unlikely event of a major systems outage at the credit union. This new disaster recovery site is several hours away from the Omaha metro area, and provides a secure facility for IT services at SAC should the need ever arise.
Providing exceptional security and safety for our members continues to be a top priority for us. The technological improvements we have made in our cyber and physical security, make it possible for our members to experience safe and convenient banking in all channels, whether it's online, on a smart phone or in one of our 23 branches. Members can be confident that we are putting security and back-up measures in place that will keep their accounts safe.
New technology has allowed us to introduce new products and services for our members, products like Apple Pay and EMV chips in credit cards. Future products like check capture and new online banking will further enhance our member's experience.
We're pleased to report that 2015 was another year of solid financial performance.
• Our total assets increased by an impressive 6.29% and are now at over $774 million
• The credit union had loan growth of 3.77% and totals $675 million, while maintaining loan quality
• SAC's total membership for 2015 grew by 9.64% bringing total membership to 90,604 as of June, 2015
As a result, SAC Federal Credit Union remains strong, well-capitalized and is the largest locally owned credit union in Nebraska.
We expanded our market footprint with the opening of our 24th branch, located within the Base Exchange at Offutt Air Force Base. The opening of this new branch is just one more example of SAC's commitment to Offutt Air Force Base and to the communities around the base as well.
We continue to operate under the credit union philosophy of "People Helping People." SAC FCU continued its commitment to being a good neighbor to the communities we serve, by supporting over 100 community organizations and participating in numerous community events. We want our communities to thrive, to have plenty of opportunities, and to be a great place to live, work and play. We also continue to invest in our employees and in building their talent.
We believe that these investments in our technology, our employees and our communities will provide unprecedented growth and success in the years to come.
We appreciate you and the trust you have placed in us. On behalf of the Board of Directors, the Management Team and our outstanding Staff, we are honored to have the privilege of serving you.
Gail L. DeBoer
President & CEO

I learn so much from my sister, Carol. She teaches me about being in the moment and listening. Carol, who was born with Down syndrome, has limited communication skills. If she is in a group and feels left out and "can't get a word in edgeways," as my mother used to say, she taps me on the shoulder and says, "Excuse me, excuse me. You are not listening to me."
In the last few weeks, there were a number of times when people and events relating to the environment tapped me on the shoulder insistently with "Excuse me, excuse me. You are not listening to me."
