The Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE) accredits Doctor of Pharmacy programs offered by Colleges and Schools of Pharmacy in the United States and selected non-US sites. For a Doctor of Pharmacy program offered by a new College or School of Pharmacy, ACPE accreditation involves three steps: Precandidate accreditation status, Candidate accreditation status, and Full accreditation status.
Precandidate accreditation status denotes a developmental program that is expected to mature in accord with stated plans and within a defined time period. Precandidate accreditation status is awarded to a new program of a College or School of Pharmacy that has not yet enrolled students in the professional program and authorizes the college or school to admit its first class.
Granting of Precandidate accreditation status brings no rights or privileges of accreditation as associated with either Candidate accreditation status or Full accreditation status. Precandidate accreditation status indicates only that planning has taken into account ACPE standards and guidelines and suggests reasonable assurance of moving to the next step, that of Candidate status. Since Precandidate accreditation status does not create any rights of accreditation under the ACPE standards, it is the opinion of ACPE that graduates of programs of Colleges or Schools of pharmacy that bear Precandidate accreditation status do not meet the educational requirements for licensure.
Candidate accreditation status is awarded to a Doctor of Pharmacy program that is currently recognized by ACPE with Precandidate status and has students enrolled but has not yet had a graduating class. Full accreditation status is awarded to a program that has met all ACPE standards for accreditation and has graduated its first class.
With respect to clarification of the meaning of Candidate accreditation status, graduates of a program so designed would, in the opinion of ACPE, have the same rights and privileges of those graduates from a fully accredited program. The Candidate accreditation status denotes a developmental program that is expected to mature in accord with stated plans within a defined time period. It should be underscored, however, that decisions concerning eligibility for licensure by examination or reciprocity reside with the respective state boards of pharmacy in accordance with their state statutes and administrative rules. Should Candidate accreditation status be awarded to a program, ACPE would, however, make its position known and make recommendations consistent with that position.
The University of South Florida College of Pharmacy (USF COP) applied for Precandidate accreditation status December 1, 2010, and underwent an on-site evaluation May 2-4, 2011. The Doctor of Pharmacy program at the USF COP was awarded Precandidate accreditation status during the June 22-26, 2011 meeting of the ACPE Board of Directors. Approval was based upon due consideration of the on-site Evaluation Team Report, the College's application materials, other communications received from the institution, and discussions with the Dean during the Board of Directors meeting.
Following the enrollment of the inaugural class fall 2011, an on-site evaluation was held March 20-22, 2012 for consideration of advancing the Doctor of Pharmacy program from Precandidate to Candidate accreditation status. As noted above, the USF Doctor of Pharmacy program was granted Candidate status during the June 20-24, 2012 meeting of the ACPE Board of Directors.
Contact the Office of the Dean:(813) 974-5699 orvisit the ACPE Website.
Candidate status is awarded for a period not to exceed two years. The USF COP was requested to submit an interim report to ACPE March 2013. The report was reviewed by the ACPE Board of Directors during the June 19-23, 2013, and the USF COP was found to meet expectations for the stage of development.
As per ACPE requirements the USF COP underwent a focused on-site evaluation for the continuation of Candidate status April 16-17, 2014. During the ACPE Board of Directors meeting June 18-22, 2014 the continuation of Candidate status was granted.
Should the USF COP fail to maintain Candidate accreditation status, or advance to Full accreditation status within five years following the submission of the initial application, any graduates would be considered to have graduated from an unaccredited Doctor of Pharmacy program. It is unlikely that graduates of an unaccredited Doctor of Pharmacy program will meet licensing requirements in any U.S. jurisdiction.
The University of South Florida submitted a substantive change proposal addressing plans to administer the Doctor of Pharmacy degree program to the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) February 21, 2011. The proposal was approved by SACS April 1, 2011 (letter maintained on file).
Information regarding the USF accreditation can be found on the following web site: http://www.usf.edu/about-usf/accreditation.aspx.
Please revisit this page periodically for updates on the accreditation status.

The first Tibetan to attain complete enlightenment was in all probability the woman Yeshe Tsogyal, the closest disciple of Padmasambhava, the master who brought Buddhism to Tibet in the eighth century. This classical text is not only a biography but also an inspiring example of how the Buddha's teaching can be put into practice. Lady of the Lotus-Born interweaves profound Buddhist teachings with a colorful narrative that includes episodes of adventure, court intrigue, and personal searching. The book will appeal to students of Tibetan Buddhism and readers interested in the role of women in Buddhism and world religions.
"Clear and readable, Lady of the Lotus-Born will reward students and scholars."— Library Journal

The World Health Organization (WHO) has disclosed that it has issued a roadmap to stop ongoing Ebola transmission worldwide within 6 to 9 months, while rapidly managing the consequences of any further international spread.
A statement issued by the organization on Thursday says that the roadmap 'recognizes the need to address, in parallel, the outbreak's broader socioeconomic impact.'
The roadmap responds to the urgent need to dramatically scale up the international response, said the statement.
It is stated that nearly 40% of the total number of reported cases has occurred within the past three weeks.
The roadmap was informed by comments received from a large number of partners, including health officials in the affected countries, the African Union, development banks, other UN agencies, Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), and countries providing direct financial support.
It will serve as a framework for updating detailed operational plans.
Priority is being given to needs for treatment and management centers, social mobilization, and safe burials.
These plans will be based on site-specific data that are being set out in regular situation reports, which roadmap covers the health dimensions of the international response.
These dimensions include key potential bottlenecks requiring international coordination, such as the supply of personal protective equipment, disinfectants, and body bags.
The WHO roadmap will be complemented by the development of a separate UN-wide operational platform that brings in the skills and capacities of other agencies, including assets in the areas of logistics and transportation.
The UN-wide platform aims to facilitate the delivery of essential services, such as food and other provisions, water supply and sanitation, and primary health care.
The statement indicates that resource flows to implement the roadmap will be tracked separately, with support from the World Bank.

After the Mexican American War, Mexican American land owners in United States territory began to lose their land at a disheartening pace. Either through fraud or force, Mexicans living in United States regions were often stripped of their rights to their land.
Looking for a hero, Mexicans Americans believed they found one in William McKendree Gwin, who sympathized with their land claims. In 1851, the United States Senate passed Gwins Act to Ascertain the Land Claims in California. The Act mandated that three members appointed by the President rule on land claims. The proceedings were formal, and either side could appeal to the U.S. District Court and to the U.S. Supreme Court.
While intended to secure fair treatment of Mexicans land claims, the bill actually worked in the reverse. Since either side could appeal a court decision, the process of protecting ones land became very expensive. In essence, only the wealthy ranchers could afford the lengthy legal process. Many of the people with legitimate claims to land went bankrupt under the tremendous legal costs. Often, the land fell into the hands of the claimants lawyers who acquired the land as payment for their fees. Mexicans hopes of equality under the California Land Claims Act were squashed. Moreover, landowners became the victims of American squatters who would take their lands piece by piece through violent means.

Chairman Jordan Comments on President Obama's Endorsement of the Defense of Marriage Act
Republican Study Committee Chairman Jim Jordan released the following statement after President Obama staked out a new position on same-sex marriage:
"President Obama claimed today that while he personally supports same-sex marriage, he also believes every state should be able to make its own decision on this issue. In other words, he claims to agree with the Defense of Marriage Act even though his own Justice Department refuses to defend the law in court. His hypocrisy on this issue evidently knows no bounds."
"North Carolina's vote yesterday means 32 states have voted to maintain the traditional definition of marriage. I agree with them that marriage should remain what it has always been."

Have I mentioned how much I love the heat? Last week's weigh-in was 352lbs, another 2lb loss for the third week in a row, which was getting frustrating, but I was just dealing with it. Saturday I stepped on the scale - 340 1/2! I was just hoping for 349, but hell, I'll take it!
As a background, on June 15, 2005 I weighed 567 pounds, and decided enough was enough. I began a MD-supervised 800 calorie/day diet for the next three months that facilitated my life change. Last summer I dropped below 367lbs and pretty much hung out in the 360's for the rest of the summer, then fall brought a wedding + new job that really derailed the weight loss. I kept it off for awhile by going to the gym over my lunch hour during the fall/early winter but then work stress.. .well.. you know the story. This March when I got back on the bike, I was up to 377 and unhappy with that number completely. Now it's June, and I'm down to 340, and well.. tickled pink!
There's no secret to my diet. During the week I eat 1500-2000 calories/day of healthy balanced foods and ride my bike at least 20 miles a day. On the weekends I don't watch the diet so closely, but at this point I know what I can and cannot eat to keep the weight off. If I do my 40+ mile rides on Saturday, plus another 30 on Sunday I give myself some leeway, but that leeway never involves a drive-thru, either driving through one or (here's the key) dining anywhere that has one.
If I can do it, so can you. And you too can toot your own horn repeatedly and often when you do it.

32 year old woman | Astoria, NY, USA | Seeking men 31-37 within 15 miles
We're All Stories in the End. Make Yours a Good One
One month. Infinite possibilities. Ok, not really. Online dating has never worked for me, but I figured one last shot and I'll then reconcile myself to being yet another one of New York City's myriad cat ladies (copious trash bags filled with oddities optional.) Not really. However, I think this anecdote best summarizes the point I've reached in my life: I was at an interview recently and was asked "what would you change about yourself?" I thought for a minute and looked my interviewer straight in the eye and said, "Honestly, nothing. I like who I am." And it's true. I'm not perfect but I always want to learn more and expand my experience (hopefully WITH someone, hint hint.) I talk a lot, I'm disarmingly honest. I know what I like and am not afraid to communicate that. I'm stubborn, smart, sultry and I can cook a mean spanakopita. I can't be fake, wish I spoke better German and I'll debate all day with you which Britpop band really had the biggest impact on the nineties music scene in the U.K. (watch what you say, I grew up there.) Long story short: I own who I am with all my charms and all my imperfections. And I like this person. Please be secure in yourself, strong, sarcastic and up for a hot woman with a brain she's not afraid to use. And if you like running, cooking, good beer, better music and the random ass art museums in New York, I think we might have something to talk about.
Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Dining out , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering , Wine tasting
Cycling, Dancing, Other types of exercise, Running, Walking / Hiking, Yoga
I exercise 5 or more times per week.
I like Cats, Dogs
I really was joking about being a cat lady. Just one would be nice and I'd love a border collie when not living in a shoebox. It ain't fair to the dog.
Greek food in Astoria, Central Park on a sunny afternoon, Brooklyn on a lazy Sunday and - yes - my balcony with a good book and excellent glass of wine.
Reading, running, learning about/tasting wine, vegetarian food, Dr. Who, British music, spicy food, chocolate, German art, writing, warm socks, a great pair of running shoes, a brilliantly crafted Spotify playlist, walking everywhere, books, pilates
Late to the game, but I just read The Hunger Games triology and am currently slogging through Sophie's Choice (I was curious!)

Photos and Review by Oyster.com Investigators
Under an hour from the airport (traffic will make this trip longer), and just a few minutes' walk to a major metro station and bus stops. Public transportation is the way to go in this crowded city.
Hotel Bonaparte by Rhombus is located in Hong Kong's Wan Chai neighborhood, close to Times Square Shopping Mall, Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, and Hong Kong Central Library.
Hong Kong is filled with skyscrapers and tightly packed streets. Traffic can be a problem, so public transportation is the way to go here, and visitors can get around everywhere in this way. Another way to take in the sights is to ride the Star Ferry across Victoria Harbor, one of the world's busiest harbors. It's an essential part of local commuter life, but also an important aspect of the city's tourism. Once at Victoria Harbor's waterfront, visitors can seek the Avenue of the Stars -- Hong Kong's version of Hollywood's Walk of Fame. Avenue of the Stars is accompanied by the Symphony of the Stars, a sound and light show that pays tribute to the city's film industry. Visitors can experience thrill rides at Ocean Park Theme Park, or get lost in the magic at Hong Kong Disneyland, which incorporates the different lands of Disney World's Magic Kingdom.
To escape the madness of the city, visitors can take the Peak Tram -- which rises 1,300 feat above sea level to provide outrageous views of the city -- to Peak Tower, where they'll find Once at the top, The Peak shopping, dining, and The Sky Gallery displaying artwork by local Hong Kong artists.
Flanked on either side by tall, skinny buildings, the mid-range, 80-room Hotel Bonaparte feels a bit claustrophobic even from the outside. And inside is no different: The all-black lobby, while swanky, is tiny with low ceilings. And the rooms are even smaller than most in this city -- it may take a minute to decide how best to navigate the minuscule space if there is more than one person in the room at a time. Still, the rooms are clean with updated amenities like flat-screen TVs, free minibars, and modern platform beds. One aspect that may bother some guests is the open flow into the bathrooms (in several cases, the bathroom is completely exposed through glass walls). Despite this openness, each bathroom is adorned in tiny, pretty iridescent tiles and features a walk-in shower. The property lacks a spa, fitness center, and meeting spaces, but there is a small cafe with a good happy hour special. With a central location near major metro lines, Hotel Bonaparte is a good option for both business travelers and tourists who are used to capsule hotels.

Originally written on Mets Merized Online | Last updated 2/7/13
According to Andy Martino of the Daily News, while the Mets remain very motivated to sign free-agent center fielder Michael Bourn, they won't make a deal if it will cost them their first round draft pick. It turns out that the decision about the draft pick would be in hands of an independent arbitrator, not the commissioner's office. Here is how the process could work: The players association could file a grievance on behalf of Bourn, a Type A free agent, at any time before or after he signs a contract. The union could then argue that since the Mets were the 10th-worst team in baseball in 2012, they should have a protected pick, and be able to sign Bourn without losing it. I'm not sure if this means the Mets would have to roll the dice and actually sign Bourn before it goes as far as filing a grievance, scheduling an arbitration hearing, and then waiting for a decision to be rendered. It kind of sounds to me that none of this will happen until the Mets actually sign Bourn which woul...

KUALA LUMPUR: The Federal Territory MIC has endorsed statechairman Datuk M. Saravanan to contest for the deputy president post in the party polls next year.
Its secretary S. Rajah said the 12 divisions in Federan Territory has unanimously decided to give their support for Saravanan, who is also MP for Tapah in Perak.
"The divisions will stand by him (Saravanan). We wil give him all the support," he told reporters here yesterday.
Also present were division chairmen as well as representatives of the other divisions.
Rajah was commenting on reports that Saravanan, who is currently an MIC vice president, would contest for the deputy presidents post.
It has also been reported that deputy president Datuk Dr S. Subramaniam will mount a challenge against Datuk Seri G Palanivel for the president's post.
If true, this will be the first time in 20 years that there is a contest for the president' s post since incumbent Datuk Seri S Samy Vellu was challenged by Kapar division chairman S. Subramaniam, better known as Jumbo Maniam in 1993.
Rajah said Saravanan who rose through the rank and file in the party, has the necessary experience and capability to hold the number two post in the party.
On whether the FT MIC supported Palanivel for the presidents post, Rajah said the state liaision committee would abide by the decision made by Saravanan.
"We are firm that we will follow the decision made by Saravanan. At the moment, we have reserved our support," he said.
He said the FT MIC has not deliberated on a resolution to pledge support for Palanivel although Selangor and Penang had pledged their support to the president.
The last presidential elections was held in 2009 where Samy Vellu won without a contest but he handed over to Palanivel in Dec 2010.
The presidential elections were scheduled last year but the party's central working committee decided to postpone it to concentrate on the general elections.
In a CWC meeting last Friday, the party decided to conduct the party polls for the branches, division, president and other posts next year.

Soaked Hay Cubes as a Base?
I have wanted to start feeding some supplements to my mare keeping it as natural as possible. Not super excited about using a grain mix so I started looking at hay cubes and pellets as the base and then would add in other supplements as needed. If anyone has an opinion on this that would be great :-)
I do the same for my horse's seasonal allergy supplement. He's not that picky of a horse, so most things I can just put in with his ration balancer, but the seasonal allergy stuff smells (and I'm sure tastes) awful. So I hide it in a mash made out of alfalfa pellets (I've also used cubes). He's more enthusiastic about alfalfa than anything else I've ever given him (treats included) so it works really well for him.

UB Confucius Institute Distinguished Lecture Series
"The Daoist Unhewn: One Sort of Knowing"
Brook Ziporyn (Professor, University of Chicago) Professor Ziporyn is a leading scholar and translator of Chinese religion and philosophy, and he has published a number of important books, including: Evil And/Or/As the Good (Harvard, 2000), Zhuangzi: The Essential Writings (Hackett, 2009). Before joining faculty of the Divinity School, University of Chicago, he has taught at the Harvard University and the National University of Singapore. In this presentation, Professor Ziporyn explores the metaphor of Dao (the Way) as the "unhewn" to show the Daoist attempt to undermine definitive and rational knowledge, and its alternative view of knowledge, action, and goodness.

I'm still on the fence with the Xindi storyline. It had its moments, yet it could have been better.
Or, better yet, it could not have happened at all.
I never bought into these "what's your favorite/least favorite season of Star Trek?" discussions before, then that worthless Xindi season happened.
Most notably, it achieved the impossible. It took Trip, who was an insufferable, unlikable, loud mouthed jackass from day one, and turned him into an insufferable, unlikeable WHINY loud mouthed jackass.
But, I understnad some people like the Xindi arc, and I'm fine with that. I just don't.

25 year old woman | Toronto, ON, CAN | Seeking men 25-35
Energetic woman looking for Romance!
I am a fun and easy going woman who enjoys meeting new people and trying new things. I have done a fair bit of traveling so far, and I can't wait to add to my list of adventures. I enjoy reading and writing, people-watching, going for strolls when the weather's nice, curling up for a movie when it's chilly out, and I love being surrounded by my friends and family. I have big dreams, and I want to be in a supportive relationship that will help me to achieve my goals - as well as having a partner that has goals and dreams that I can support. I want to travel and work at TED within the next 5-10 years. I'd like to live in New York and Europe as well at some point in the future. My biggest dream is to one day start or work with a foundation that protects elephants from ivory poachers. :) I want to meet someone who also has big dreams and wants to do something great with their life. I listen to all different types of music, but I prefer to have music on that I can sing to (I remember lyrics like it's my job.) I'm open to a lot though, and it really depends on my mood. I have a big family, and by big I mean crazy. :) I have a great group of friends and I love going out with them to have dinner and enjoy great conversation! I'm looking for someone to be my person. The person I can confide in, find support from, and laugh with. I want a lover and a best friend. I need someone who is mature but fun, intellectual but relaxed, confident but kind, funny but serious when need be... I want to meet someone who I can be myself with, and I want to be all of that and more for them. :)

Capitals general manager George McPhee has a message for rival general managers who might consider meddling with restricted free agents Karl Alzner and Marcus Johansson:
Don't bother.
"We would always match," McPhee said when asked what he'd do if another team tried luring Alzner or Johansson with an offer sheet. "I'm not going to allow other clubs to determine who's in our lineup and who's not in our lineup. We would match and adjust in another way."
The most famous offer sheet in Caps history came in the summer of 1990 when the St. Louis Blues signed defenseman Scott Stevens to a four-year, $5.1 million offer sheet. The Caps opted not to match the offer and received two first-round picks they turned into defensemen Sergei Gonchar and Brendan Witt.
Since 1997, when the Flyers signed Chris Gratton to an offer sheet, there have been 10 offer sheets tendered to restricted free agents. All but one were matched by the original clubs. Philadelphia and Edmonton each has attempted the strategy twice in the past seven years but only the Oilers succeeded, landing Dustin Penner from the Ducks in 2007.
"Some teams might do it," McPhee said. "Teams get desperate sometimes and do that sort of thing and it almost never works. But some teams might do it this summer.
"We've never done it. I think if you're drafting and developing well you don't have to do it. Most of the clubs that do that sort of thing are a little desperate and you have three or four desperate clubs every summer. But I've never done it and I don't anticipate doing it. It just drives up costs. It's not our style."
Alzner, 27, earned $1.27 million last season, and carries a qualifying offer of the same amount. Johansson, 22, earned $900,000 and, because of signing bonuses, requires a qualifying offer of $850,500. Both qualifying offers have been made by the Caps, retaining the rights of both players.
"We'd like to get them done as soon as we can get them done and get another thing off your desk," McPhee said. "Sometimes it takes more time than you want or anticipated but that's the process."

Robert B. Justus Jr., 74
Published: Wednesday, March 12, 2003 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, March 11, 2003 at 9:15 p.m.
Robert "Bob" Bryan Justus Jr., 74, of Hendersonville, passed away Monday, March 10, 2003, in Pardee Hospital following a long period of declining health.
He began his 74-year journey through this life Jan. 4, 1929, born to the late Robert Bryan Justus Sr. and Edna Netherton Justus.
He was a Coast Guard veteran. For most of 50 years he was an electrician by trade. The last 15 years he was also a service representative for the Casablanca Ceiling Fan Co. He traveled all of Western North Carolina and, on occasion upper South Carolina, going into homes to repair fans and making many friends along the way.
He will not be remembered for big heroic acts but for the smaller things, such as kindnesses shown to customers, especially the elderly, whom he charged only a small amount or sometimes gave his electrical services for free.
He is survived by his friend and caregiver, Juanita Justus; two daughters, Rebecca Sleight and her husband, Bob, of East Flat Rock and Patricia Elliott of Arizona; two granddaughters, Lori Miller and her husband, Duke, and Lisa Sleight; four great-grandchildren, Kindra, Taylor, Hannah and Casey; a number of cousins who where as close as brothers and sisters; and numerous friends whom he cared for dearly.
A friend is one of life's greatest blessings. Getting to know this man was a great pleasure for all who cared for him. He will be greatly missed.
A funeral will be held at 2 p.m. Thursday in the Chapel-in-the-Pines of Jackson Funeral Service. The Rev. Cliff Eubanks will officiate. Burial will follow at Forest Lawn Memorial Park. The family will receive friends from 7 to 8:30 p.m. today at the funeral home. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Pacolet Baptist Church, Lynn, N.C. 28750.

No one knows his classified military hardware like my former colleague Bill Sweetman on Defense Technology International magazine's "Ares" blog, but I'm going to stick my neck out here and disagree with him.
Last week, Bill wrote on Ares about the existence of a quasi-classified new sensor called the Littoral Surveillance Radar Surveillance (LSRS). I call it quasi-classified because the sensor's existence is a public fact (see here), but its capability and purpose are kept vigorously secret by the US Navy and contractors Boeing and Raytheon.
Bill wrote that the LSRS is a good fit for the Boeing 737-800-derived P-8A Poseidon, the submarine-hunting twin jet that remains in development. That's the part where I disagree.
Or, more precisely, that's the part where navy Captain Mike Moran disagrees. Moran is the deputy program manager for developing the P-8A fleet. I interviewed him today in Seattle to catch up on the P-8A program. I asked him if the navy was interested in the new radar sensor for the P-8A.
His response: "No. Not at this time." As Moran answered my follow-up questions, it became clear that "not at this time" really meant "never".
Moran's dismissal of LSRS rings of truth, if only because the navy is adamant about focusing the P-8A around the mission of hunting for submarines. It's not clear precisely what the scope of the LSRS capabilities are, but all the public evidence indicates that it is optimized to search for targets on the water's surface, not underneath it — a la the P-8A.
So I'll not only boldly disagree with Bill, but I'll up the ante with a bit of my own speculation. The sensor may not be a good fit for the P-8A's mission profile, but it could be an excellent candidate for the Broad Area Maritime Surveillance (BAMS) fleet. BAMS will be a fleet of unmanned or optionally-manned aircraft primarily tasked with detecting and identifying surface vessels, which is really what the LSRS is all about. BAMS is usually thought of as an open-ocean-type capability, but perhaps LSRS could expand its competency into the littoral regions.
Or, well, I'm completely wrong. Darn these quasi-classified programs! They give you just enough to make you curious, but not enough to understand why they exist in the first place. (Hmm … sounds very Catholic, doesn't it?)

COVINGTON - Newton County Senior Services is sending a clear message for Older Americans Month in May: "Just because you get old doesn't mean life stops," said Freda Reed, activities director.
Senior Services will kick off the month will the annual Chairman/Mayor's Walk on Friday, May 3.
"The purpose is to make the community aware of senior citizens and how active they still are and how they make a great contribution to the community," Reed said. "Over about 400 seniors come in and out of this building. They range from retired doctors, lawyers, principals of schools, etc. and they are very active and very concerned with things going on in the community."
The walk is open to all age groups in support of senior citizens. Last year, the oldest walker was age 86. Residents at local senior living facilities and children from Peachtree Academy also participated. Typically, elected officials also take part.
The group will gather at 9:30 a.m. at the Newton County Historic Courthouse in downtown Covington and begin the walk to Turner Lake Complex at 10 a.m.
Once there, at 11 a.m., a competitive walk at the Turner Lake Complex Gym will take place. There will be a 1-mile and half mile, with and without walkers. At noon, they can enjoy a hot dog lunch.
"We're inviting everyone to come help us walk just to bring awareness to our seniors," Reed added. The walk is free.
This year's theme for Older Americans Month is "Unleash the Power of Age."
Senior Services has several other events planned to celebrate Older Americans Month at the Senior Center at Turner Lake Complex.
-- The Fellowship Yard Sale takes place from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Friday, May 10.
-- International Day takes place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Friday, May 17. Seniors are welcome to experience the food, costumes and entertainment from different countries. Tickets are $5 per person.
-- Senior Leadership Day and Meet and Greet takes place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Friday, May 31. Seniors can talk to local and state officials and learn more about what is available to seniors in the community.
For more information on any of these events, contact Senior Services at 770-787-0038.

Next Act rings true in 'It's a Wonderful Life' adaptation
Early in Next Act Theatre's restaging of "It's a Wonderful Life" as a 1957 radio drama, we watch the Cream City Players - an ensemble of radio actors who have worked together for 20 years - preparing for their final broadcast.
Stan, the crusty foley artist played by David Cecsarini, heaps insults on the station boss while also identifying the true culprit: television, which kills the imagination and turns would-be theater fans into sodden lumps. Actors, Stan grumpily suggests, face a grim future. »Read Full Article(1)

Flip Wilson: What you saw wasn't all you got
Forty years ago, Flip Wilson was the biggest thing in television.
In its first two seasons on NBC, "The Flip Wilson Show" was the second-most watched program on TV. His comic characters spawned two of the medium's hottest catchphrases, "The devil made me do it" and "What you see is what you get!" (The latter lives on in its acronym, a computer application that allows you to see what a document you're working on will look like - WYSIWYG.) He jump-started the careers of the two biggest names in comedy, George Carlin and Richard Pryor. In January 1972, Time magazine had him on the cover, calling him "TV's First Black Superstar." »Read Full Article
