I am receiving More magazine and enjoy it very much. Thanks.
I was quite taken (in good ways) with you Letter in the March issue ("The end of the 'firsts'"). I teach a college class (among other things) as we talk about the importance of firsts - firsts in one's own life as well as firsts for the world at large, and all in between. So thanks for providing a nice boost to the discussion.
--Tom Squitieri
I have been a devoted reader of More for many years because as a magazine dedicated originally to women age 40+ it spoke to me, a woman who is in that demographic. I recently decided to enter the More Beauty Search and saw that the rules state that participants must be at least 30 years of age! On closer inspection, I also noticed that the February 2012 issue has a feature regarding hair for ages 30 and over. When did More become younger? Are there not enough beautiful, fascinating, and sexy women over the age of 40 to keep your magazine in business? Are there not enough beautiful and sexy women over the age of 40 to participate in your beauty search? What is your magazine suggesting? Are you caving in to the pressure of our society that emphasizes youth? As a 46 year old woman, I feel insulted that this magazine, which I once highly regarded, has succumbed to the idea that younger is somehow better for business. Are there not enough magazines out there to address the issues of those in their early years of adulthood? As I age, what magazine will I have to turn to? I feel insulted and profoundly disappointed. I will not be renewing my subscription.
--Irene Stadnyk, New York, NY
I enjoyed your important article entitled, "When You Can't Get a Diagnosis," but I was disappointed at the use of "he" when referring to physicians. I applaud the citations of female doctors, researchers, and specialists, but was dismayed that doctors are still referred to as male. A direct quotation is one thing, but generic reference should include the female option--especially in a women's magazine.
Thank you.
While I applaud your editorial "The End of the Firsts" for its message of women breaking new ground, I was disappointed on your take on southern women and the south in general. When I started the article and read you were asked by New England classmates why you would want to attend a college where everyone "sounds dumb", I assumed you would make the point that southerners are indeed as intelligent as any other group of people. Moreover, southerners are generally a gracious, courteous people who genuinely care for others. As a proud southern woman, I feel you should raise the flag for all women, not just those in other parts of the country!
--Luanne Schafner, Augusta, GA
I love the magazine and look forward to every issue. However, for a publication that celebrates women over 40, I'm very disappointed about the heavy use of airbrushing on all the fabulous women you feature. We should be celebrating aging gracefully. Why does More -- of all magazines -- cover up laugh lines and try so hard to make the stars you feature look like they're 25? For that matter, I'd love to see More take a stand and require cosmetic companies that advertise on your pages to not use airbrushing. Wouldn't it be lovely if there was one magazine out there that glorified women as they are?
--Margaret Harrist, Austin, TX
Julianne Moore is a beautiful, 51 year old woman who you make the point of saying, in your interview of her, has no interest or inclination to get plastic surgery.
So WHY do you airbrush the hell out of her face on your cover????????????
Your magazine is all about celebrating women being beautiful as they age so LET THEM AGE.
Her face is lacking LIFE ~ experience, life lines, joy, pain.....
So tired of women being airbrushed to death.
--Alexandra Martella, Lyons, CO
I love your magazine but my only complaint is that the print is too small and too light. I wear contacts but still have trouble reading your magazine! I am only 46 but would love it if you made it larger for those of us whose eyes are just not what they used to be!
Thank you,
Beth Fetcho

|Small honored by CoSIDA
MOSCOW, Idaho – University of Idaho senior soccer player Chelsea Small was honored for the third time in her career on Friday as a Capital One Academic All-District honoree, as voted by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA).
Small, who finished her Idaho career this week as the soccer program's career and single-season leader in goals, points, game-winners and shots, was voted First-Team All-District 7. Her selection to the First Team means that she advances to the national ballot for Academic All-America honors later this year.
The fourth-year Vandal forward from Solana Beach, Calif. (Torrey Pines HS) was a Second-Team Academic All-American in 2010 and has been voted to the All-District First Team all three years which she has been eligible.
"It doesn't surprise me that she's in this category for a third year in a row," Idaho head soccer coach Peter Showler said on Friday. "With the way she commits to everything she does, on and off the pitch, this is a full recognition of who she is."
Small is a Math major with a 3.94 grade-point average who will graduate in May. She intends to pursue a graduate degree in accounting after school.
In her four years at Idaho, Small set program career records with 39 goals, 91 points, 16 game-winning goals and 404 shots. She finished her career ranked second all-time in the Western Athletic Conference in career shots and seventh in career goals. Small also holds Idaho's single-season records for goals (13), shots (121), points (30) and game-winners (8), all of which she set in the 2010 season when she led the Vandal women to a school-record 14 wins and a third-place WAC finish.
"She puts herself in a good position because of her work ethic, time management and commitment," Showler said. "Those things don't happen by chance. They happen for a reason, and it's an excellent example of every part of being a student-athlete. She deserves every honor she gets because of those attributes."
Small is the first four-time First-Team All-WAC honoree in Idaho history and is the first Vandal woman to achieve that feat in a team sport since Alli Nieman in women's basketball from 1997-00. She was the 2009 WAC Freshman of the Year and 2010 WAC Offensive Player of the Year. She is a two-time National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) All-West Region pick and was an NSCAA Scholar All-West Region selection last year.
Small recently changed her major from Secondary Education to Math, and in addition to soccer, she has also worked as math tutor for the university.
Small led Idaho in scoring this season with eight goals, one assist an 17 points. Four of her eight scores this season were game-winners. She has more game-winning goals than any other three players in Idaho soccer history.
The women's soccer Academic All-America teams will be announced in late November. District 7 includes all NCAA Division I schools within the states of Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas and Wyoming.

The services sector plays an increasingly important role in the global economy and the growth and development of countries.
Services are becoming crucial in a country's development, including in achieving the Millennium Development Goals, such as poverty reduction and access to basic services, including education and health services.
UNCTAD has implemented a comprehensive work programme on services, trade and development with a view to assisting developing countries in developing their services sectors, increasing their participation in services trade and realizing development benefits. This work enjoys extensive complementarity between the three pillars of UNCTAD's operations.
Culture, as exemplified by thriving creative industries around the world, has many positive spillovers for human development, UNCTAD's Deputy Secretary-General has said in China.
Numbers released in run-up to Global Services Forum in Beijing show creative industries exports rose sharply from 2002-2011.
Ugandan officials are visiting Pretoria, South Africa, from 6 to 10 May, to learn how to expand their nation's services sector so that it boosts growth and makes the national economy less vulnerable to external shocks.

Gardening Articles: Landscaping :: Trees, Shrubs, & Vines
Low-Maintenance Gardens (page 3 of 3)
by Jane von Trapp
Some Practicalities
There's no real trick to proper plant spacing. If a plant's mature width is 3 feet, it needs about half that distance all the way around. But if your plants are slow-growing, or if you want them to grow together and look as one eventually, space them slightly closer. (This also minimizes weeds in ground covers.)
When you prepare a new bed, make sure you pull weeds, roots and all, or they will return to haunt your plantings. A layer of woven fabric weed cloth can help in some situations. But weeds can still grow through the opening made for the plant. Unfortunately, the weeds that root into the cloth are much more difficult to pull.
Mulch is a very effective weed deterrent. If a weed seed sprouts, it is very easy to pull with roots intact. Spread a 2- to 3-inch layer of shredded bark between the plants. Shredded bark, as opposed to nuggets or chips, provides the best coverage and, in my opinion, looks the best. Mulch adds organic matter to the soil as it breaks down, and it also shades the soil in summer and insulates it in winter. Replenish mulch every few years. If you replace it annually, you may run the risk of making the mulch layer too deep, and it will smother the plants. It's better just to freshen it with a light top-dressing at the beginning of the season.
Even if plants require only minimal maintenance, water and fertilizer are still essential. A drip-irrigation system on a timer eliminates the need to stand with a hose or to move sprinklers around. A little water for a long time is healthier for plants than a lot of water over a short period, so invest in a drip or soaker hose, drip irrigation, or more elaborate system. Since most of the water goes underground, drip irrigation really cuts down on weed growth, particularly in dry-summer climates.
Amending the planting hole with a commercial planting mix or homemade compost will provide just the boost new plants need. To make fertilizing a snap, use controlled-release fertilizers; one application can last an entire season. Or apply water-soluble fertilizers automatically through your irrigation system.
For fencing and garden benches, use cedar or other rot-resistant wood--no paint, no stain, no fuss when you let it weather naturally.
So there you have it. You can ignore your garden and enjoy it, too.

Earned Income Tax
All City of Wilmington residents or persons conducting business in the city are required to pay an Earned Income Tax, also known as the City Wage Tax.
Related to the Earned Income Tax is the Net Profits Tax. This applies to the net profit from self-employed businesses and professionals such as consultants, sole proprietors, and LLC's.
Visit the Earned Income Tax and Net Profits Tax Forms Library
EIT Frequently Asked Questions
Are you a resident of the City of Wilmington?
All residents of the City of Wilmington are subject to the Earned Income Tax. The tax is payable on all earned income (whether derived from wages or business income) regardless of where it is you may work, whether inside or outside the City.
Do you work or conduct business in the City?
Any person who works in the City or conducts business in the City from which he or she derives wages or business income, is subject to the City's Earned Income Tax, regardless of whether he or she lives inside the City or not.
How is the tax calculated?
The Earned Income Tax that is due is calculated as the product of 1.25 percent times the applicable wages or net profits on business income of the taxpayer.
When is the Earned Income Tax payable?
The Earned Income Tax is payable monthly if the amount withheld is $50.00 or more. If it is less than $50.00 per month, it is payable quarterly. Net profits tax is an annual tax due on April 15th each year.
Does an employer have a responsibility to collect the Earned Income Tax of its employees?
Yes. If the employer operates from within the State of Delaware, it has a statutory responsibility to collect and remit the tax to the City. Failure to collect and remit the Earned Income Tax as required subjects the employer to joint liability for the tax, as well as all accrued penalties, interest and other charges.
What happens if a Taxpayer doesn't pay the Earned Income Tax?
Failure to pay the tax on a timely basis subjects the taxpayer to statutory penalties and interest. If the taxpayer does not voluntarily pay the tax and all assessments thereon, the account will be referred to either or both a third party collection agency or to an outside law firm with authority to take such action as may be necessary and appropriate to collect the debt, including but not limited to filing suit and executing on any judgment obtained in connection therewith. In addition, the City may elect to report the taxpayer's Earned Income Tax delinquency to one or more credit reporting agencies.
Why does the City have an Earned Income Tax?
The City uses the revenues from the Earned Income Tax to fund, staff and administer a myriad of City services that work to strengthen neighborhoods and to promote and sustain business activity and economic development. By way of example, these revenues help to equip, train and retain police and firefighters, to sweep the streets and pick up the trash, to enforce the correction of licensing and inspection code violations, and to promote City cultural and entertainment venues like the Clifford Brown Jazz Festival.
How do I find out more about the Earned Income Tax?
If you would like more information about the City's Earned Income Tax or would like to open an account to pay the tax, please contact the Finance Department, Earned Income Division, 8th Floor, Louis L. Redding City/County Building, 800 French Street, Wilmington, Delaware 19801 or call (302) 576-2418.

50¢ a reasonable fee for copies?
Unit owners at MNTY condominium requested access to the office records of their association. Pursuant to the Condominium Act, the association is required to make records available within ten work days from the unit owner's written request. The association failed to timely respond and when it did so, sought to charge 50¢ per page.
In a situation where a unit owner requests access to the official records and the association fails to timely respond, the Condominium Act provides a rebuttable presumption that the association willfully failed to permit access, which entitles the unit owner to damages of $50.00 per day, up to ten days, for a maximum of $500.00.
As to the amount the association may charge for copies, the Condominium Act provides for a "reasonable expense".
At issue in a subsequent arbitration was whether the association failed to timely provide access and whether the association was charging an unreasonable amount for copies of official records by charging 50¢ per page.
To determine what was "reasonable", the arbitrator turned to Section 119.07(4), Florida Statutes. Said section establishes fees that Florida government agencies may charge for making copies of public records, providing for a fee of up to 15¢ per one-sided copy.
Ultimately, the arbitrator concluded that unless the association could demonstrate payment of a market rate to a vendor, such as a copy service or an accounting tied to the cost of the copies, a charge of 50¢ per page for photocopies was "unreasonable". A reasonable fee would have been 15¢ for each single-sided copy or 20¢ for each double-sided copy. [see Maldondo v MNTY Condominium Association, Inc., Arb. Case no. 209-05-1376, decided February 5, 2010].
Please note that at one time, Rule 61B.23, Florida Administrative Code permitted a condominium association to charge 25¢ per page. Now only Section 718.111(12)(c) governs and as noted, the test will be what is "reasonable".

Beware pets in vehicles
Published: Wednesday, May 1, 2013 at 12:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, April 30, 2013 at 4:26 p.m.
Editor: Many people are not aware of how quickly vehicles heat up and retain heat and could kill their dogs in minutes. If it is over 70 degrees outside, you should not leave your dog in the car. They cannot sweat like we do, and they do not lose heat as quickly as humans do either. Even with windows cracked, vehicles can heat up and kill a dog in six minutes.
Leaving the air conditioning running is not a solution because the air does not circulate in a vehicle sitting still like it does in a moving vehicle, not to mention if the vehicle cuts off while you are away for a moment.
Asphalt can also heat up and burn their paw pads. Always have a supply of fresh water on hand for your dogs as well preferably in a shady area if it is outside.

1. Melatonin is a hormone that:
a. Regulates estrogen levels in the body
b. Controls the body's internal clock
c. Helps the body digest melon
d. Causes insomnia
Answer: b
Melatonin, a hormone secreted by the pineal gland in the brain, controls the body's sleep cycles (circadian rhythm). Studies show that melatonin production naturally decreases with age, causing disrupted sleep patterns. Although melatonin is widely used in supplement form, its effects on sleep have been inconsistent in studies. The optimal dose of melatonin or safety of long-term therapy is not known. More studies are needed to determine if melatonin is effective and safe for some forms of insomnia, particularly for long-term use.
2. Sleep problems can be caused by:
a. Use of stimulants such as caffeine
b. Hot flashes
c. Stress, depression, and/or anxiety
d. All of the above
Answer: d
Many things, including hot flashes, stress, or use of stimulants such as caffeine and alcohol, can cause sleep problems. Other potential causes include advancing age, depression and anxiety, medical conditions such as sleep apnea and restless leg syndrome, certain medications, and exercising or overeating before bedtime.
3. An adequate amount of sleep per night for adult women is:
a. 12 hours
b. Between 6 and 9 hours
c. Between 10 and 11 hours
d. 5 hours
Answer: b
The optimal amount of sleep varies from person to person, but 6 to 9 hours is a good rule of thumb. Sleep is considered adequate if one can function in an alert state during desired waking hours. When we get less sleep (even 1 hour less) than we need each night, we develop a "sleep debt." If the sleep debt becomes too great, it can lead to problem sleepiness and/or impairment — this occurs when you should be awake and alert, interferes with daily routine and activities, and reduces your ability to function and your ability to react quickly. You may not be aware of this reduction in reflex time, but it is measurable and may put you or your family at risk.
4. The following herbal therapies may assist women with sleep problems:
a. Valerian and passionflower
b. Chamomile and hops
c. Lavender and lemon balm
d. All of the above
Answer: d
Valerian has been reported to promote deeper sleep, and there is some medical evidence to confirm this. Passionflower, chamomile, hops, lavender and lemon balm are said to be mild sedatives — although true scientific data are lacking. (Ask your healthcare provider if herbal therapies might help you.)
5. According to a survey by the National Sleep Foundation, the percentage of peri- and postmenopausal women who reported frequent insomnia was:
a. 61%
b. 86%
c. 100%
d. Less than 10%
Answer: a
A total of 61% of peri- and postmenopausal women reported frequent insomnia.
6. The most common cause of insomnia is:
a. Menopause
b. Overeating
c. Depression and anxiety
d. Loud music
Answer: c
Altered brain chemistry as a result of depression or anxiety interferes with sleep, making these conditions two of the most common causes of insomnia.
7. Which of the following does not help cure sleeplessness:
a. Having a bedtime snack
b. Avoiding nicotine
c. Limiting the use of the bedroom to sleep and sexual activities
d. Watching half an hour of television before bed
Answer: d
Television is often too stimulating an activity. Some strategies that may help with insomnia include the following:
Maintain a quiet, cool, dark environment that is conducive to sleep.
If you are unable to fall asleep after about 15 minutes, get up and engage in relaxing activities outside the bedroom, and return to bed when sleepy.
Follow a sleep routine by waking up and going to bed about the same time every day, even on weekends.
Finally, consider prescription therapy. Generally, it is a good idea to discuss this with your healthcare provider and try to evaluate the cause of the problem. Insomnia can be a symptom and the solution is to treat the underlying issues. Drugs may occasionally be used to treat insomnia, although ideally only as a short-term solution. Hormone therapy may improve sleep in some peri- and postmenopausal women, mostly by reducing menopause-related hot flashes and night sweats in women who are symptomatic.
For more questions on menopause, visit the North American Menopause Society's web site.

Last weekend, staff of Project Hope accompanied Catholic Charities staff and volunteers to the Lower East Side of Manhattan to help New Yorkers who had been affected by Hurricane Sandy.
The New York State Office of Mental Health Project Hope Crisis Counseling Program was created in November to help families, individuals and groups impacted by the storm, offering free supportive counseling and public education services. Project Hope's confidential services promote resilience, empowerment and recovery.
On Saturday, Catholic Charities and Project Hope staff visited Baruch Houses to speak with residents and leave flyers in both Spanish and English for residents who weren't at home. They provided information on Our Lady of Sorrows Church, Catholic Charities and other resources, including immigration services. Project Hope staff were available on the spot for those who requested additional counseling.
Collaborating with Project Hope to directly reach people in their own homes is one way Catholic Charities continues to work with parishes, communities and government agencies to get Sandy survivors the help they need. Learn more about Project Hope.
If you'd like to help families and individuals still recovering, text SANDY to 85944 to make a one-time $10 donation.

Ranked among the nation's most integrated healthcare systems, Community Health Network is Central Indiana's leader in providing convenient access to exceptional healthcare services, where and when patients need them—in hospitals, health pavilions, workplaces, schools and homes.
Every family looks forward to a healthy pregnancy and to the birth of a healthy newborn. And, for the vast majority of women, pregnancy follows a fairly routine course. But, for some, there may be unexpected difficulties and challenges along the way with a high-risk pregnancy.
Having a high-risk pregnancy means that a woman has a greater chance of complications because of conditions in her pregnancy, her own medical status or lifestyle, or due to external factors.
Many times, complications are unexpected and may occur without warning. Other times, there are certain risk factors that make problems more likely.
While many complications are unavoidable, with the help of your physician, you can minimize your risks and work toward the healthiest pregnancy possible.
Fortunately, advances in technology have helped improve the care of both mothers and unborn babies. Being as healthy as possible before becoming pregnant, and getting early and regular prenatal care during pregnancy, are important ways to take the best care of you and your developing baby.

RSF Prototype
NREL's Information Services staff prototyped the new workstations and technologies planned for the RSF. This helped ensure that employees moving into the RSF would know all about the "workplace of the future."
Nearly 100 employees prototyped several new workstation configurations that utilized shorter cube heights and allowed for maximum daylighting and lower energy costs. Along with the furniture, employees tested many of the new information technologies now in the RSF. Learn how NREL tested the energy-saving office of the future.

Green Data Center
The RSF's green data center was designed to optimize efficiency by implementing building and data center best practices to obtain better than industry standard Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) ratings, and to support the RSF's energy goals. Through innovative air handling using "free cooling" courtesy of Denver's climate, the data center significantly reduces the need to use traditional air conditioning to counteract the extensive heat generated by equipment housed in the facility. The RSF heating system reuses the waste heat in the winter, with the heat from the data center being either ducted to the building's ventilation systems, or exhausted to the outside when not needed. The data center is also configured with hot aisle containment, ensuring that supply air is not mixed with the hot air vented from the equipment.
In addition to features in the design of the data center, NREL replaced 90% of its legacy server environment with HP Blade servers that utilize variable speed fans and energy-efficient power supplies. 70% of NREL's server environment is now virtualized, with a more than 20:1 ratio of legacy physical machines to virtual servers. This equates to a 96% reduction in computing equipment energy footprint through virtualization. Data center design, virtualization, implementation of efficient uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), and an energy efficient computing environment resulted in a 55% to 71% per user reduction in data center energy requirements and a world class power usage effectiveness rating of between 1.12 and 1.22 (depending on the season).
Learn more about the RSF Data Center by reading the case study highlighting the design, implementation strategies, and continuous performance monitoring: Reducing Data Center Loads for a Large-Scale, Net Zero Office Building
Research Support Facility Workshop
In July 2011, NREL and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) hosted the RSF Workshop, with the goal of bringing together a broad set of stakeholders in the commercial building industry to learn about, discuss, critique and comment on the energy features and design-build process used for the RSF.

Obama makes right choice
Published: Friday, June 20, 2014 at 12:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, June 19, 2014 at 11:12 a.m.
Editor: For the haters of President Obama, it doesn't really matter what he does regarding any issue. The haters will find some excuse to criticize, condemn and complain. Thankfully, our president seems to be able to somewhat ignore the haters and take actions he deems best for our people and our country as a whole.
The recent decision to bring back the American soldier held as a POW in Afghanistan seems to me to have been the proper decision. I don't recall reading or hearing that the soldier had renounced his American citizenship or had "sold out" to the enemy. If my understanding is correct, then he remained an American during his time in captivity. It was the right course of action to obtain the freedom of this American from the enemy.
There will be adequate opportunities to investigate the soldier's actions that may have resulted in him becoming an American POW in the hands of the enemy. That investigation will be conducted by Americans, and if it is determined that the soldier committed any illegal or improper acts that resulted in his becoming a captive of the enemy, then it will be Americans who will make that determination. His punishment, if appropriate, will be determined by Americans. That's the way it will be — and that's the way it should be.
"Support our troops" seems to be a mere slogan for some folks in this country. The real support is not there when it comes to tax increases to pay for our wars. The support is not there when additional funding is needed for Veterans Affairs — unless news of a major event hits the airwaves and the print media. The support is not there when it comes to increased job opportunities for returning veterans. The support is not there if there's an opportunity to bash our president. Ah, but "Support our troops" looks "good" on a bumper sticker.
Sgt. (Bowe) Bergdahl was one of our troops. I support the recovery of Bergdahl from the enemy. Thank you, President Obama, for your support of our troops as shown by many of your actions and requests of Congress.
O. Eugene Queen

Actually, the skate shop and event space on 2428 E. Robinson St. in the Milk District, is now called Spacebar Distribution (Spacebar for short).
It's also acting as a bar of sorts now that the owners have gotten a beer and wine license (and there is an actual bar inside). Here are pictures from the Sweets for Your Feet block party last weekend and the official relaunch party of Spacebar.
Expect lots of art shows and dance nights in the future. In fact, here are a couple coming up:
Never Not Lurking: a digital photography show featuring works created on cellphones on Saturday from 7-10 p.m.
Panic: DJs Rich Rosario and Tommy Mot spin Brit pop, indie and classic retro on Sept. 3 at 8 p.m.
I'm particularly excited about Panic, I loved when Mot used to spin at Bullitt Bar in downtown Orlando when it first opened and it's still a loss for that bar he's not there anymore.
All events are free.

Ocean cargo: The Shipping Act of 2010 signals end to cartels
September 23, 2010 - LM Editorial
As widely expected, the Federal Maritime Commission is likely to be given more authority next year to end ocean carrier pricing collusion.
The Shipping Act of 2010, introduced by Rep. James L. Oberstar, D-Minn., yesterday will abolish carrier antitrust immunity and prevent carrier executives from convening so-called "discussion groups" used to formalize rate strategy.
The bill also will empower the FMC to mediate contract disputes…something shippers have long waited for.
"The carrier's freewheeling market share approach to contracts is what took rates down in the first place," said Jon Monroe, president of Monroe Consulting in Shanghai. "But the real frustration was the lack of communication and the lack of a real partnership."
As reported in LM, a draft of this bill had been endorsed by a large coalition of shippers this summer. U.S. exporters of agricultural goods had been especially vocal in their support of legislation that might also encourage carriers to provide more containers for westbound deployment.
Oberstar, chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, apparently had been listening.
"Even under the current regulatory scheme, immunity for agreements has long outlived its usefulness," he said in a statement.
Michael Berzon, chairman of the National Industrial Transportation League's ocean committee, told LM last month that U.S.shippers were making a compelling argument.
"If enacted, the end of the limited anti-trust immunity would follow the action taken by European regulators," he said. "Since the elimination of the EU Block Exemption, it prohibits consultation by groups of carriers to discuss rates in the European trades."

The Sound of Learning
Country, jazz, choral, Broadway, rock, alternative, bluegrass, classical, pop, hip-hop…it's all happening at Vol State.
Music at Vol State is instruction, theory, practice and performance. It's a way to hone your craft, grow your talent and discover new ideas. It's a group of dedicated professional musicians to guide you with one-on-one instruction and in the many different group and ensemble opportunities. The programs are real-world oriented and designed to introduce students to many different facets of music. The recording studio, commercial music and songwriting programs bring together a diverse group of students. Showstoppers and the Vol State Singers provide group experience, with some students able to travel internationally with their performance group. Concerts and a CD recording project highlight student talents each semester.
Our students have played the Grand Ole Opry, appeared on national TV shows and have gone on to careers in a variety of music genres. Our instructors are professional, working musicians with a great deal of experience. They include a hit songwriter, a Grammy award winning recording engineer, a seasoned vocal performer, a country and bluegrass sideman to the stars, an orchestral conductor, a guitar craftsman and a rock and roll band leader. They all share a passion for music and a desire to see students build new skills and blossom creatively.
The Associate of Fine Arts in Music (AFA-Music)
The AFA in Music is part of the Tennessee Transfer Pathways (TTP). This degree allows students to transfer all successfully completed classes on the community college level to Tennessee public and private colleges universities. Certain competencies in Applied Music, Piano and Music Theory will be evaluated at the senior university. Students must set up an appointment with full-time music faculty for advisement in this path.
Recording Industry Management (RIM University Parallel-Music)
Recording Industry Management gives students a solid background in audio recording techniques. Students learn fundamentals of audio, acoustics, and recording. They can take that theory into studio courses where they record bands and other musical groups in our on-campus Recording Studio. Advanced students have the opportunity to participate in internships with studios such as Blackbird Studio, Starstruck Studios, and Soundstage Studios. Students must set up an appointment with full-time music faculty for this path.
Entertainment Media Production
Under the Communication Department, Entertainment Media Production combines several areas with the same purpose: to get students trained and plugged into the entertainment industry in Tennessee. Tracks include concentrations in audio and music production, music business, multimedia and web design, and video production. The program offers certificates, which are designed to get students into the workplace. Those certificates can then apply towards a new associate of applied science degree. Students must set up an appointment with full-time music faculty for advisement in this path.
Associate of Science University Parallel Major -Songwriting
Students work with Nashville songwriters in the honing of their craft, in whatever musical style they choose. The program has had hip-hop, rock, jazz, country and Americana songwriters. Students take their original work into the Vol State recording studio and participate in live performances and a CD project each semester.
Associate of Science University Parallel Major-Bluegrass
Individual and group instruction is the foundation of this program. Students can build solo skills and then take what they learn into the Vol State Bluegrass ensemble- Bluegrass Ablaze. The group has performed in concerts in Tennessee and Ireland and released a CD.

Peptide Drugs Are Not Only Diverse...
Berg Pharma and the Parkinson's Institute established a partnership that aims to generate new insights into the molecular basis and progression of Parkinson Disease (PD) and provide new avenues for diagnostic and therapeutic development.
The collaboration will exploit Berg's Interrogative Biology® discovery platform for identifying genomic, metabolomic, proteomic, and lipidomic signatures of disease, together with the Parkinson's Institute's tissue repository. Under terms of the deal Berg will have access to clinically annotated tissue samples with specific PD-related characteristics and genomic features, including the LRKK2 mutation.
Berg is exploiting a suite of platforms to understand how changes in metabolism and metabolic control relate to disease onset. The platform is being exploited to identify and develop validated targets in a range of therapeutic fields, and build a product pipeline based on endogenous compounds in the body that act to normalize the disease microenvironment. Key therapeutic areas include cancer, metabolic disorders, central nervous system diseases, and inflammatory conditions.
A topical formulation of lead candidate 31510 is undergoing Phase III evaluation against skin cancer, and an intravenous formulation of the same drug is in Phase I or II development for treating solid tumors, rheumatoid and psoriatic arthritis, lupus, and inflammation. A second anticancer candidate 31543 is in Phase I studies for treating chemotherapy-induced alopecia (topical administration), and is undergoing IND-enabling studies as a potential treatment for chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression (IV formulation). The firm's CNS R&D is centered on programs for autism, Alzheimer disease, and Parkinson disease.

Cambridge, MA...Public healthcare system Cambridge Health Alliance (CHA) is the recipient of a handmade mural donated by the Ceramics Program, Office for the Arts at Harvard. The installation took months of planning, designing, and prepping before it was recently hung at CHA's Cambridge Hospital campus, adding a spirit of warmth, community, and a touch of whimsy.
"The mural will bring a human touch to the high-tech hospital environment," said Allison Newsome, an instructor for the Ceramics Program who led her students in creating the artwork for CHA. "Cambridge Health Alliance was chosen for this project because it is a community hospital that works with courage and determination to serve the needs of a very varied and underserved population. It is good to give back to those who give."
Newsome's group of students created the mural over six months, utilizing indigenous clay from local historic brick manufacturer Stiles and Hart Company. The students incorporated the clay from Stiles and Hart in the center tile for each vignette of the mural, serving as the "heart" of each section of the creation. The mural was installed outside of CHA's Women's Health Center for visiting patients and their families to view, as much of the art reflects the diversity of CHA's patients and the Cambridge community.
The mural will be dedicated on Wednesday, January 25, 2012, during a reception at the Cambridge Hospital campus (1493 Cambridge St.). The event, which will take place from 4 - 6 p.m., is free and open to the public. CHA is a teaching affiliate of Harvard Medical School.

Deaf visitors at Beebe Medical Center can now call friends and relatives when a loved one is in the hospital by using a new videophone.
The videophone is located in a privacy cubicle in Beebe's Outpatient Laboratory Testing Request waiting area, near the east entrance of the hospital. The cubicle is close to the Emergency Department waiting area.
The videophone has a television screen and works much like Skype, allowing the deaf person to make calls to other deaf persons with the same kind of phone, or to a certified American Sign Language translator who then relays the message to a hearing person on a standard telephone.
The videophone at Beebe is set up to be completely private, and does not retain a record of content or the numbers that have been called.
According to Beebe, the deaf population in Sussex County is small, but the numbers swell in the summer season to several hundred.

Rated 4 out of 5 by 4 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by PTownGal Wonderful Chocolate Chip Peppermint Scones! I couldn't believe how easy these were to make--my brunch guests were walking up to the door just as I was just mixing these up. I didn't want to bother patting them into scone shapes, so I just sprayed cooking spray into a cake pan and baked them up! Took about 5 extra minutes, but worth it! This was wonderful for the peppermint aroma and taste, along with the mini chocolate chip! Everyone agreed these were great! I even savored the lone remaining 'scone" the next day for breakfast. Yum! December 29, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Marcia Part of our holiday traditions We kook forward to making the scones every Christmas. The aroma of peppermint when you take them out of the oven is so good!! November 30, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by teddy Perfect! Could not taste any better! Have these for breakfast. Could not buy better. December 13, 2009
Rated 1 out of 5 by Wildcat Easy but nasty tasting The mix was easy to make but tasted nasty and artificial. Bought it because I had surgery and wanted to make some seasonal baked goods for Christmas day. I was able to make sitting at the table with minimal effort, but no one would eat them. I ate 2, then threw them all away. Not good at all. Part of it was the flavor wasn't really right for breakfast. But I didn't like the texture either. It was too spongy for a scone. Weird stuff.

Thomasville won't raise vehicle taxes
Published: Wednesday, March 27, 2013 at 2:38 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, March 27, 2013 at 2:38 p.m.
While High Point officials continue to mull a proposed vehicle tax increase, leaders in Thomasville say there will be no rate hike in their city.
It's not a matter of the Thomasville City Council's pleasure, but more a matter of what the city can and cannot impose, according to state law.
Thomasville levies a $5 vehicle tax on cars and vehicles registered within the corporate limits of the city, which generates about $85,000 to $90,000 for the city's general fund annually, said Thomasville City Manager Kelly Craver.
Municipalities can levy privilege taxes of up to $5 per vehicle. They can also impose an additional $5 tax if the city or town operates a public transportation system, according to North Carolina General Statute 29-70.
The General Assembly has approved some municipalities to impose higher privilege taxes, up to $30 per vehicle. Legislators approved the higher increases contingent that the revenue gained would be used for transportation-related purposes.
High Point, for instance, is requesting an increase of $15, from $5 to $20, per vehicle. If approved, $15 of the tax could be used for any lawful purpose, and the remaining $5 could be used exclusively for transportation and sidewalks, according to House Bill 309.
The General Assembly has approved the higher vehicle tax for larger cities with mass transit systems, including Raleigh ($25), Winston-Salem ($20) and Charlotte ($20).
Because Thomasville does not have a mass transit system, it can't make a similar increase, Craver said.
"We cannot do it by general statute," he said.
Craver clarified that point to city council members recently after Thomasville City Councilman Neil Grimes raised the issue during a transportation committee meeting.
The General Assembly has yet to approve the special legislation for High Point. The bill is in committees.
High Point City Council would also have to approve the change for it to take effect.
