RCC President Dr. Terrence Gomes heaped praises on all four awardees for the contributions they have made and encouraged the gathering to join with RCC as the college moves forward in a new direction. The festivities began with the music of cellist Tony Rymer, followed by the elegance and symmetry of the OrigiNations Dance Group, Girls of Imani, who entertained the small gathering.

Councilor Yoon spoke about connecting the new generation of which he, as the first Asian elected councilor, would be pursuing, with all the generations and ethnic population in the city.

Elder statesman Mel King seem humbled by the occasion and ac- cepted his award while acknowledging the work of his parents in preparing him to work to makes other lives better.

He has seen it from both sides, as a student and as an administrator. Patrick was a student here between 1 991 and 1994, a task that seemed formidable then for a young Haitian immigrant, fresh out of high school. "One African American student told me he thought we all slept on trees", he said. Now he is in charge of the school's Information Technology Department, that produces challenges on a daily basis. Patrick arrived in America in November of 1990. Like most other Haitian immigrants, he had difficulty overcoming the language barrier. He enrolled at RCC in the Fall of 1 991 and majored in Computer Information System. His time here helped to improve his language skills. The environment at RCC was different then than it is today he feels, "Clubs were very active then in organizing activities for the students. Activities such as Caribbean Focus, exposing students to other countries and culture. Even members of the community would participate,' 1 he states. However, he feels the influx of immigrants both to the school and to state has helped to lessen the effect of such activities, since we have now become such a multicultural society, people are learning from each just by interacting with each other on a daily basis.

We look to them to provide excitement to our mundane existence. They plant seeds of hope in our hearts in our darkest hows and guide us through difficult times. Many persons look to superstar athletes and entertainment celebrities when choosing heroes. They look up to them and model their lifestyles after them. We mistakenly put these persons on such high pedestals that often; they fail to live up to such high expectations. Meanwhile we ignore the ordinary folks around us who strive daily to make our lives better with neither the need nor the desire for recognition. While searching for the solution of how to finance coming back to school for my last semester (oh what a joy!), after searching everywhere and contacting everyone I knew, in vain, 1 finally ended up in the office of the President of Roxbury Commu- nity College, Dr. Terrence Gomes. 1 had already given up hope and expected nothing but to be turned away again with any more solutions to my problems. There I met up on a wonderful lady called Shirley Leslie, Senior Assistant to the President and my hopes were restored. No, she didn't give me any money nor did she tell me where I could get some, but the way she took on my problems, trying in no small measure to help me find solutions lifted my spirits immensely. This lady had, in all probability, never laid eyes on me before that day, but that didn't seem to matter to her. She treated like I was her own son and thus she had to find a solution. As it turns out I found my way back to school and this is due in no small measure to the efforts of the President himself and Vice President Stephanie Janey. It must be pointed out, however, and 1 have saved the best for last, that the words of encouragement and counseling that I have received from a very powerful dynamo in a small package, that goes by the name of Judy Kahalas, was instrumental in helping me to keep my sanity. I could not have lasted through all those difficult times without the efforts that these people have made. I truly thank you all. You have my undying gratitude. If it seems I have gotten away from the point of heroes let me break it down for you. These are people we see everyday at school who try their very best give to help us students. They numbeT among my list of heroes and role models. Most of us consis- tently take these efforts for granted. We don't place the work these people do in the same high regard as we do the work of athletes and celebrities who actually care more about themselves than they do about their fans. Yet they deserve it so much more. To deal with us students everyday cannot be the easiest job in the world. Yet they show up everyday to try and formulate new plans to ensure that we are better prepared to face the world and in many cases make more money that they ever will. Once in a while it doesn't hurt just to say thanks. Double Time Kizzy Aponte How are we as students supposed to meet our graduation requirements if we are not able to take our required classes? I set out to answer this question, because as a BMT (Broadcast Media Technology) student I am required to take Journalism. Yet it was offered at the same time as my other BMT classes. This dilemma is irritating students and teachers across campus. "We are not the ones responsible for this occurrence in schedule matters; we merely input the classes being offered into the system", responds Registrar Qui n ton Wilder, when I ask him how this matter can be rectified. ''Furthermore, the department heads need to make the classes conducive to the requirements of the students and be mindful to not overlap classes, Wilder states. This problem of the "department heads", according to the Registrar is a matter for the department heads to solve. Justin Petty, the BMT professor and mentor to many students, came to the rescue of those of us who are required to take Journalism. Along with the journalism teacher, he polled the BMT students and came up with a time and day to run the class and - viola - problem solved ! Hopefully this will not occur next semester, we can only keep our fingers crossed that the department heads get it together so we students are able to meet our graduation requirements and leave RCC prepared and properly educated with our required classes completed. Page 4 Student BOOY^ RCC Student Profile i Monte Evans Nicolee Grant I met up with Eric "Monte" Evans at the cafeteria in the Student Center building. He was having lunch: so to break the ice I decided to drink a Jamaican tropical punch. Turned out he loo was having a tropical punch along with soup. He sat by himself, cap with the NFL logo, on backwards. He was wearing a NFL jersey, number 81 written across the sleeves, front and back, blue jeans pants and Jordan sneakers. I later learnt that most of his wardrobe consisted ofJordon ensembles. My curiosity about the man sitting across from me was further peaked when 1 observed the "biing" that adorned his neck, both wrists and left ear. Because of the noise, the interview was conducted in his office, situated on the 3 rd floor of the Student Center building, which housed the Student Government Association. Monte is the Vice President and Giselle O" Brady is the President. As soon as we were seated. Monte began discussing his role as Vice President of SG A, I had other ideas. It was obvious we were both a little uneasy. NG: Where are you from? <1 hoped this would break the tension). EE: North Carolina. Where are you from? NG: Who is doing the interview? Jamaica. EE: My ex is from Jamaica. 'If a student has a problem with a NG: Great we have something in common. grade from a professor or feels EE: You are not going to write that, arc you? tmi t t h ey are being treated NG: What? unfairly, we intervene by finding a EE: That my ex is from Jamaica. middle ground.' NG: Yes. Wc all need a little gossip. EE: Fine but write that I date every one, all nations. After all, my father is from Panama and my mother is an America. By now we were completely at ease and I understood his earlier statement about being very charismatic. NG: Tell me a little about yourself before Roxbury Community College. EE: I went to West Robertson High in North Carolina. I am a sport fanatic. I played football and basketball; corner back, wide receiver and guard respectively. I was also an all star, I have three brothers and two sisters, my father died in 1996 and my mom is still in North Carolina, My aunt works in the cafeteria (1 notice the note of pride in his voice at the mention of his aunt), and I have a two year old daughter. NG; What is it like now that your father is dead? EE: He shrugged. "My mother pretty much raised us. NG: What brought you to Massachusetts? EE: I met my daughter's mother in DC, came down for a visit and have not looked back since. NG: What is the function of the Student Government Association? EE: We look out for the best interest of the students. If a student has a problem with a grade from a professor or feels that they arc being treated unfairly, we intervene by finding a middle ground. NG: Middle ground? EE: We gel together with the dean and, the professor and student and come to a resolution that is acceptable to all. NG: Have you ever had a difficult situation where an issue could not be resolved. EE: No. I am upfront and straight to the point. I am not afraid to admit when 1 am wrong. 1 pretty much stand firm on a point once it has been determined that that is the right point and is in the best interest of all the parties involved and the school." NG: Do you believe that the low graduation rate would increase if there was more interest on the parts of some of the students to excel academically and. if some professor where to go above and beyond their call of duty in terms of instructing students ? academically. EL: Both sides must work as a team. 1 left high school in 1993, spent four years in the military; when I came back to school in 2004, it was hard. I did badly in my first semester but then I decided that this was my life and I have to make something of it. I cannot afford to say, "Oh my tuition is paid, so I can float around with no cares in the world." I had to make my mind up to work hard. NG: If neither you nor Giselle are not at the student center where can the students go? EE: They can go to the student activities in the student building and seems. Ms. Elizabeth Clark. NG: Well Monte keep up the good work. Page 5 * __ y GAZETTE CttLTttRE MmL. RCC HAPPENINGS CBS Journalist Liz Walker Speaks on Darfur, Sudan PANEL DISCUSSION ON FIRST FEMALE AFRICAN HEAD OF STATE Patrick Jean Louis Continued from page 2 After graduation in 1994 he attended night school at Suf- folk University while working full time at RCC. Three years later he felt the urge to be in more of a business environment. He left RCC to become Network Administrator for the main office of Man- agement Sciences for Health, a company that did work mainly for the United States Agency for International Development. This company had offices in 26 different countries and his main task was to set up networks in several of these countries. This allowed him to travel all over the world but mainly to South and Eastern Africa. He encountered a lot of racial bias while in South Africa but was determined not let that get in his way. "1 believe once you set your mission and your goals, you should not procrastinate but get on with it. 1 encountered racial bias right here in Boston too," he said, somehow managing to ooze confidence while at the same time remaining totally humble. After fours years he moved to Florida and opened an IT consulting firm. He operated this business for three years before the events of September II, 200 1 caused business to dry up. His search for employment then led him back to RCC in 2002 to faces that were familiar to htm from his time as a student. But the environment was different. People were now more willing, he says, to make quick decisions to force a change when it is needed in order to improve the school and make it better able to compete with other community colleges. Patrick's mission since returning to RCC is to gradually improve all computer labs semester by semester. Already the fruits of this can be seen in the brand new computer lab in room 325 which now boast state of the art facilities. Internet connections have also improved with the bandwidth now three times faster. "The goal is to get all the computer labs on the same level as the one in (room) 325 in the shortest possible time." Patrick is married with one child and his presently pursu- ing two masters degrees in Information Technology. His advice to immigrants who speak a foreign language is, "even though it can be difficult, you can overcome it. The reality is that there will always be more whites in the workplace than blacks but you have to keep moving towards your goals. Remember your goals."

In addition to his duties as director of the Upward Bound program at RCC, Mr. Neita has been a community activist since 1972 in Jamaica and elsewhere. He has traveled extensively throughout Europe, Latin America, and the Caribbean representing ,-outh groups.

Child support a catch; Freddie Mitchell jailed
March 23, 2012
BY PHILLIP LUCAS, Daily News Staff Writer
FORMER EAGLE Freddie Mitchell was arraigned on tax-fraud charges after surrendering to authorities in Orlando last week. Now he's sitting in jail in Orange County, Fla., after being arrested on an Indiana warrant for failing to pay back child support, a lawyer says. Mitchell, 33, known as FredEx, surrendered to authorities March 12 and was released on his own recognizance until his arraignment, which was scheduled for Thursday. Bringing his child-support payments up to date was a condition of his release prior to his arraignment, according to court documents.
Freddie Mitchell stays upbeat as he adapts to system
October 17, 2001
By Phil Sheridan INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
If Freddie Mitchell has learned the Eagles' offense as well as he has learned patience in the last six months, his future should be bright indeed. The Eagles' first-round draft pick bounded into town in April planning to be an NFL star. He still has those plans, but his time frame has been adjusted. After a long training camp and four regular-season games, Mitchell has one reception for zero yards. He's playing behind Todd Pinkston, who has blossomed into a big-play receiver. If Mitchell is not exactly content, he's certainly understanding about his status.
FOURTH AND 26 FOREVER The Eagles will never forget Freddie Mitchell's catch. They just wish it led to something bigger.

By Bob Brookover INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
Fourth and 26. Just say those words and most of the population in Green Bay and Philadelphia knows exactly what you're talking about. Football fans all over the country will be talking about Fourth and 26 all week as the Packers and Eagles prepare for Sunday's game at Lincoln Financial Field. It was the most memorable play of the Eagles' 2003 season and the most miserable play of the Green Bay Packers' season. Fifty years from now, they'll still be breaking out that roll of video from the NFL Films archives.
Freddie Mitchell gets involved The Birds' rookie receiver had four catches for 62 yards, his best game yet.
November 5, 2001
By Todd Zolecki INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
This is just the beginning for Freddie Mitchell. He is quite certain of that. Mitchell came to the Eagles this summer as a very confident first-round draft pick from UCLA. More important, he came to be the wide receiver Donovan McNabb so desperately needed a year ago. But few had seen much from Mitchell this season. Just two catches for 15 yards in his first four games, actually. Eagles fans wondered where Mitchell was. No matter that it takes rookies time to learn the West Coast offense.
Freddie Mitchell: You've got to love him, flash and all Mitchell has flash of a champ

By Annette John-Hall INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
Dear Freddie, I know you've said you don't read your fan mail. And my journalist's objectivity usually prevents me from saying this. But I can't help gushing. You're my Eagle. I know Donovan is the team superstar, the $5 million man, the all-pro. But you, Freddie, are the people's champ. You are rhinestone flash on a team of solid sterling, dual-toned mink on a squad of workman corduroy. That's why you do that cute buckle-the-belt motion every time you make a crucial grab, as you did on fourth-and-26 last Sunday.
Best of times, worst of times Freddie Mitchell caught a TD pass early, but had a big drop in the second half. "It happens," he said.
November 3, 2003
By Frank Fitzpatrick INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
It was a revealing day for Freddie Mitchell. Two plays in the Eagles' 23-16 victory over Atlanta yesterday showcased why the wide receiver was a first-round draft choice - and why he hasn't yet lived up to that potential. The first came in the opening quarter, on a 37-yard strike from a rolling-out Donovan McNabb that, in this season's eighth game, turned out to be the the first TD by a Philadelphia wide receiver. The other came late in the third quarter of what was then a tie game.
Racial threats target Eagles wide receiver Freddie Mitchell and five others in the NFL got letters threatening death and castration. The FBI is investigating.

By Phil Sheridan INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
Eagles wide receiver Freddie Mitchell is one of six NFL players who received racially motivated, threatening letters in a campaign that is being investigated by the FBI. "Yes, I got a letter," Mitchell said yesterday after the Eagles practiced. "It doesn't make any sense, but you know, there's racism everywhere. I'm not worried about it. It's not a threat to me at all. I don't live in fear. I just go out and live day to day. If you live in fear, you know your life will be messed up. " Federal law enforcement sources confirmed that Mitchell had been sent several letters, including one in September.
LETTERS Just FredEx 'im!
February 16, 2005
I WOULD LIKE to thank Bill Belichick on his first derogatory remarks in print being against Freddie Mitchell. I have been an Eagles fan for 29 years, and I never disliked an Eagle as much as I do Freddie Mitchell. He has contributed nothing to this city as long as he has been here. With all the mouth he has, you would think he would find a way to back it up, but he is just another big-mouth bust. The faster he is out of green and white the better. Brian White Philadelphia
Pats' McGinest takes notice of Mitchell's untimely remark
January 29, 2005
By Tim Panaccio INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
Maybe Freddie Mitchell was kidding when he said on ESPN that he's "got something" for Patriots all-pro safety Rodney Harrison. Maybe he was just being stupid. Whatever, Mitchell's comments caught the attention of Patriots linebacker Willie McGinest. "Freddie Mitchell is a first-round draft choice who has been an underachiever," McGinest said yesterday. "The only reason people know his name is because he's been on TV running his mouth. "You don't see the real guys who make a difference on their team saying anything.
LETTERS Freddie the kids
May 16, 2005
NOW THAT THE Freddie Mitchell era in Philadelphia has come to an end, I would like to share with your readers a side of Freddie that most people did not get to see. Freddie Mitchell has a big, caring heart when it comes to kids in our community, especially disabled and disadvantaged children. Whenever we asked him, Freddie would make the time to attend our Variety Club events and light up the faces of our kids. He never once dropped the ball. Freddie, thanks for the 4th and 26. Eagles fans will never forget it. Thank you even more for the warm reception you always gave to Philadelphia's children.

Paul Domowitch, Daily News Staff Writer
NELSON Agholor's middle name is Efamehule. In his native country of Nigeria, it means "may my name not be forgotten. " So far, he has done a very good job of making sure that doesn't happen. He was one of the top high school running backs in the country at Berkeley Prep in Tampa, rushing for nearly 2,000 yards as a senior. Moved on to USC, where he was converted to a wide receiver and started 30 games in three seasons. Was a team captain as a junior last season and caught 104 passes, the third most in school history.
Sports in Brief: Ex-Eagle Mitchell guilty in tax scam
March 10, 2013
Former Eagles wide receiver Freddie Mitchell admitted to his role in a tax-fraud scheme. Mitchell pleaded guilty in federal court in Orlando, Fla., Friday, to a single count of conspiracy to file a false claim. He faces a maximum prison sentence of 10 years and a maximum fine of $250,000. Prosecutors say Mitchell and two others concocted a scheme that involved filing a false tax return on behalf of another professional athlete. They say Mitchell told the athlete, only identified as "A.G.," that he could help him get a bigger tax refund from the IRS. Mitchell and his two associates filed a return on behalf of A.G. that contained blatantly false information.

Rodney Peete was the Eagles starting quarterback for 24 games from 1995 to 1998, including a memorable playoff win, 58-37, over Detroit in 1995. Donovan McNabb had an Eagles record 142 starts (five more than Ron Jaworski), Cunningham had 107, and Vick has had 35. Those 308 starts are equivalent to more than 19 full seasons. 2. Vince Young , a former Tennessee Titans starter, started three games for the Eagles after Vick got hurt in 2011, and played in three others.
Former Eagle Freddie Mitchell sues co-defendants
May 11, 2012
BY DAN GROSS, Daily News Columnist
FREDDIE MITCHELL has filed a civil suit against his co-defendants in his federal conspiracy and tax fraud case. The former Eagles wide receiver brought a case in U.S. District Court for Eastern Pennsylvania against Jamie Russ-Walls and Richard Walls, of Bensalem, alleging fraud, breach of contract and infliction of emotional distress. The suit cites that Mitchell, best remembered for his fourth-and-26 catch against the Packers in a January 2004 NFC divisional playoff game, has suffered embarrassment, lost business opportunities and required medical or psychological attention because of being implicated in the federal court matter in which the couple took advantage of him and defrauded him. An April 2011 federal indictment in Florida, which was unsealed last March, charged that Mitchell worked with the Wallses to bring pro athletes to their tax business, which the government says falsified wage and tax statements to make it seem their clients were owed refunds ranging from $170,000 to nearly $2 million.
Child support a catch; Freddie Mitchell jailed
March 23, 2012
BY PHILLIP LUCAS, Daily News Staff Writer
FORMER EAGLE Freddie Mitchell was arraigned on tax-fraud charges after surrendering to authorities in Orlando last week. Now he's sitting in jail in Orange County, Fla., after being arrested on an Indiana warrant for failing to pay back child support, a lawyer says. Mitchell, 33, known as FredEx, surrendered to authorities March 12 and was released on his own recognizance until his arraignment, which was scheduled for Thursday. Bringing his child-support payments up to date was a condition of his release prior to his arraignment, according to court documents.
Recalling Eagles' Fourth and 26
January 7, 2011
By Frank Fitzpatrick, Inquirer Staff Writer
Now that Eagles fans have witnessed DeSean Jackson's exclamation point at the end of Miracle at the Meadowlands II, Fourth and 26 - much like the two players who engineered it - has lost a little luster here. But Sunday, when the Eagles and Green Bay Packers meet in an NFL playoff game for the first time since that maddeningly memorable afternoon seven years ago, it will be difficult to overlook the improbable salvation wrought by 74 Double Go. "I just remember being on the sidelines," said safety Quintin Mikell, a rookie that day, Jan. 11, 2004.
Bob Ford: Jackson's antic a cause célèbre
December 14, 2010
By Bob Ford, Inquirer Columnist
The official game report from Sunday's win over the Dallas Cowboys dourly notes that Eagles receiver DeSean Jackson was penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct. This is because the NFL does not yet march off 15 yards for stupidity. If it did, there would be a lot of marching and the games would take an awful long time. When the penalty was assessed for Jackson's slo-mo plunge into the end zone, backward somersault and monster spike, many wondered how a touchdown celebration could be illegal when the touchdown was still in the process of occurring.
McNabb exits, his promise never fulfilled
April 5, 2010
By Frank Fitzpatrick INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
His arrival produced boos, his departure cheers and, in the 11 years in between, Donovan McNabb generated a near-constant, noisy cacophony in Philadelphia - elated roars, frustrated sighs and loud disagreements. The era of the player Andy Reid called "the greatest quarterback ever to play for the Philadelphia Eagles" ended with a trade to Washington late on Easter Sunday, his lengthy career here apparently beyond salvation even on that day of redemption. McNabb, who holds virtually all of the franchise's career quarterback records, was dealt to the Redskins for a second-round draft pick this year and a third- or fourth-rounder next year.
Solomon Jones: A refresher on what McNabb has done for the Eagles
March 27, 2010
WITH ALLthe hubbub about the possible trade of Donovan McNabb, I thought it was time for a true Eagles fan to pipe up. Granted, my expertise is limited to drawing up plays with a stick and dropping lots of passes when I was 12. But, like all the other slobs sitting on couches and pontificating about the Eagles, I am a rabid fan, and I have the scars to prove it. I was watching in 1981, when the Eagles went to Super Bowl XV to face the Oakland...
Just how clutch has McNabb been?
October 25, 2009
By Bob Brookover, Inquirer Staff Writer
They were the kind of games that champions win, and the city's baseball team won two of them in the span of a week with the stakes elevated to postseason proportion. Down to their last out, the Phillies staged scintillating rallies to eliminate the Colorado Rockies from the National League division series, and then to take Game 4 of the National League Championship Series against Los Angeles. In Colorado, Ryan Howard and Jayson Werth delivered the knockout blows. Against the Dodgers, Jimmy Rollins' aplomb allowed him to scorch a game-winning double into right-center field.

Hollywood is very large. There's a West Hollywood (which is the area that you are referring to) that borders Beverly Hills and Hollywood Hills. The homes and condos are pretty pricey there. So... if you have a minimum of $500,000, you might be able to find a starter condo. The attraction there is lots of trendy shops and restaurants. You are close to Sunset strip which also has a lot of entertainment venues.
This area is usuall West of Cresent Heights, between Hollywood Blvd. and Santa Monica.
Hollywood, East of Crescent Heights, is a little less expensive. The community changes dramatically the further east you head - towards Western, etc.
Overall, there's a lot of traffic and it's quite fast paced. Depending on your age,activities and budget, it might work well for you.
Julie Kryukova
If you are buying today to call a home a home, and give the market time to rebound, I can't help but think that your investment now will be worth more come the time all this development is completed.
Let me know if I can be of any further assistance, I service Antelope Valley (still declining market, but if you want to live like a king for la lot ess money this would be the choice, good medical and aircraft/aerospace jobs, upper desert), Santa Clarita Valley (very desirable area, lot of LA commuters, great access to freeways, excellent sought out schools, straight shoot on Hwy 126 to the beach!), San Fernando Valley (less commute if working in LA area, lots of job possibilities, city life, smog etc.) and Venura County (great areas, less property tax, closer to the beach so it is cooler). I know large territory...born and raised in one, office in another, live in one of the other areas. I love working with first time buyers, their excitement fires me up! Put your running shoes on and let's get in the game!
There is lots of new construction and refurbishment going on which can only enhance property values in the medium to long term.
West Hollywood (an incorporated City) is well known as being a "gay village" and is an exciting and vibrant city to live in. It is generally more expensive than Hollywood with a great choice of condo buildings as well as single family homes.
Hollywood is split into 2 parts, West Hollywood (Incorporated) and Hollywood
True Hollywood is bordered by these streets: Mulholand Dr (N) Western Ave (E) Santa Monica (S) La Brea (W). West Hollywood (ignoring the border of incorporation) Sunset (N) La Brea (E) Melrose (S) La Cienega or Doheny (W).
Hollywood is in a rapid stage of flux. West Hollywood is getting tired and looking very 80's. I think you can find deals in Hollywood, Condo's will be dropping in price quite a bit. (A lot of overbuilding going on). There are also a lot of virtual tear-down bungalows around in the SE of Hollywood, if you can beat developers to the punch and fix it up you will have yourself quite a deal.
West Hollywood? Forgetaboutit. Sellers there still in the mass grip of 2006 delusion.
As for the gay issue... It's hard to generalize... but here goes. The main concentration of gay commerce is on Santa Monica - La Brea to Doheny. So unless you're gay you have the rest of the city to play in. Having said that... some of the BEST neighbors I've had were gay. They REALLY take care of their properties and most are really welcoming. If you're a messy guy (like me) you may run afoul from time to time.
One thing to remember is... the traffic in Los Angeles is a freakin' nightmare so mby get a rental until you find out where you're going to work. Then get something close. You can always drive into Hollywood to rave!

Shumlin expresses doubts on GMO billThe Associated Press | March 07,2013MONTPELIER — Gov. Peter Shumlin is expressing doubt about whether Vermont should pass a bill requiring special labeling for food that is genetically modified or contains genetically modified ingredients.
Shumlin says Vermont lost a lawsuit several years ago over a requirement for labels on dairy products from cows treated with an artificial growth hormone.
He says that loss in the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals makes Vermont likely not the best state to be the first to test a GMO labeling law.
A bill requiring labels on genetically modified food cleared the House Agriculture Committee last Friday, but even supporters say they expect that if it passes, it will be challenged in court by the biotech industry.MORE IN This Just InARLINGTON The Otter Valley boys soccer team earned its second win over Springfield in four days...

Change gives Bills a 10th sack in Redskins win
ASHBURN, VA. (AP) —How bad are things going for the Washington Redskins? They've been given a new dubious franchise record - in the middle of the week.
The Buffalo Bills announced Wednesday that a scoring change has given the team a 10th sack in the 23-0 victory over the Redskins on Sunday in Toronto.
That's the second most in Bills history - behind an 11-sack performance at Denver on Dec. 13, 1964.
For the Redskins, it's the most they've ever allowed. The nine sacks had tied a franchise mark that last occurred in 1978.
The change was made on first quarter play when John Beck(notes) scrambled, then recovered his own fumble. It was originally ruled a rushing play but is now a sack shared by Nick Barnett(notes) and Danny Batten(notes).

Laura Martinez-Herring was not a perfect 10 when she became Miss El Paso in 1983. Chubby and tongue-tied, the 5'6" Texas teenager was short by pageant standards and flat-chested to boot. But two years later, when she stepped forward to accept the Miss U.S.A. title, Herring looked every inch the beauty queen—sleek and poised in a pink crepe sheath.
"She's my Cinderella story," says Richard Guy, 48, who along with his partner, Rex Holt, 46, engineered Herring's two-year transfiguration. But Herring, now 23 and married last February to a German count, is only one of their many successes. Running the Texas state franchise of the Miss U.S.A. competition (rival of the Miss America system), Guy and Holt have turned a string of Miss Texas-U.S.A. titleholders into national Miss U.S.A. winners. In 1977 Kim Tomes became the first Miss U.S.A. for Guyrex Associates, the company Guy and Holt formed 24 years ago. After Herring wore the crown in 1985, she relinquished it to Miss Texas 1986, Christy Fichtner, who in turn crowned Miss Texas 1987, Michelle Reneé Royer, last Feb. 17. Since then the beauty world has been abuzz with talk of the Texas pygmalions.
"The key to our success is that we don't clone our girls," says Guy, who met Holt 28 years ago when they were dance instructors at a local Arthur Murray studio. Adds Holt: "We just try to enhance, enhance, enhance what a girl already has." No effort or expense is spared in the process. The Guyrex partners summon experts and special services to ensure that the hair, skin, diet, dress, shape and speech of their protegees will be as near perfect as possible. Guy and Holt live together in a Spanish-plush-style home next door to two other houses that include offices and an apartment for the current object of their attentions. She spends her entire year as Miss Texas preparing for the national pageant, forsaking any social life for the rigors of her regime. "We will not tolerate negatives like boyfriends or parents," says Guy.
To prepare Herring the Guyrex duo brought in a speech coach to tone down her Mexican accent. A dietician fed her a seaweed-and-fruit-juice drink, and a trainer made her skip rope 2½ hours a day "to get rid of the jiggle." Guy supplied some extra weight-loss motivation by calling her "tubby" at fittings for the wardrobe he designed. Seamstresses stitched the outfits in a basement workshop piled with lace and taffeta.
No Miss Texas U.S.A. enters this beauty boot camp unaware. Holt takes pains to warn all state semifinalists about the difficulties. Christy Fichtner, 1986's Miss U.S.A., admits that "Guy and I were barely on speaking terms" at certain stages of her ordeal. Once Guy says he caught Fichtner "slumping" at a party: "I leaned over and whispered, 'Suck it up, and keep it sucked up all night!' She did."
After a few months of basic training, Miss Texas begins her public appearances, both to compensate sponsors and to sharpen all-important social skills. "If a girl is flat-chested," says Guy, "we can put a ruffle across the top of her dress. But we cannot think for her." They can, however, follow each outing with a videotaped postmortem. "Anyone can read TIME and memorize," says Guy. "But getting out of a tricky situation—that's hard. Everyone wants to know why a girl from Texas won three times in a row. Well, she won on the interview."
In 1971 El Paso's beauty pageant business was just about moribund. Guy and Holt had been designing costumes and parade floats and running a Christmas decorating business when they found out that the franchise to run the Miss America contest in Texas was for sale, cheap. They grabbed it, but after four years the national office kicked them out because of "creative differences." "We believe in individuality," says Guy. "All their girls look alike. If you're doing Playboy, let's have Playboy. But if you're supposedly doing a beauty pageant, why pad? Why glue?"
Though the Miss America organization won't comment on Guyrex, a Miss U.S.A. spokesman is "really pleased" with the way the duo has made their once-faltering Texas franchise into one of the splashiest state pageants. "If Pam Mahoney Furs cannot give me the best fur she's got for Miss Texas, I don't want it," says Guy, who lines up the sponsors. "I don't want a little jacket. I want a full-length mink—the best." And he gets it: $90,000 in cash and prizes and a prime-time slot on Texas television, with advertisements that cost $20,000 a minute.
In the past decade Guyrex has acquired a Mexican restaurant and the rights to several smaller pageants. The firm also makes custom evening gowns for local socialites and even for some Miss America contestants. Still, the entrance fees and sponsorship revenues from the state pageant generate most of Guyrex's considerable cash flow. "We're not millionaires," says Guy, who refuses to get specific about his finances. "We just live like millionaires." After they bought control of the Miss California-U.S.A. contest last May, Guy and Holt purchased a lavish Beverly Hills home that will serve as a West Coast base. "We're more Hollywood than Hollywood," says Guy. "We should fit right in."
Guy bridles at the suggestion that he and Holt simply outspend the competition. Told of some snide comments at this year's pageant about other girls not being able to afford Miss Texas' "$40,000 gown," Guy snorts, "Michelle's dress was made out of $4-a-yard material. I told them, 'Money does not give you taste.' " And slavish imitation does not give you the Guyrex edge. Ever since Guy dressed Herring in a straight, high-necked dress to make her look taller and then added a thigh-high slit to temper the prudish effect, the runway has been littered with leg-baring copies. "Yet this year," chuckles Guy, "I sent Michelle out in a demure dress, and she won."
This summer the cycle begins again. A new Miss Texas U.S.A. will be chosen on August 3. After rooting for Royer in May at the Miss Universe contest in Singapore, Guy and Holt will shift their attention to a new fair lady and her strengths and weaknesses. As Guy is fond of saying, "This is not a bust contest, and it's not a hair contest. I want a total girl." If that's something less than a total woman, at least it's a winning formula.

One of the main tasks of Compliance is to help ensure that BNP Paribas remains a trustworthy Bank, not only by complying with laws and regulations, but also by complying with the spirit of laws and regulations.
The Compliance function is evolving. Regulatory, geopolitical and societal changes place Compliance more and more at the crossroads of the strategy and everyday action of the bank and its customers.
Compliance also has to ensure the security of the Group, its business lines and territories, which implies adapting to the growing demands of regulators, customers and public opinion.
Know Your Customer (KYC)
The "Know Your Customer" (KYC) domain defines and maintains the Group policies related to client knowledge (identification and documentation, risk assessment, on-boarding decision process), supports and monitors their implementation in the Business Lines, and contributes to the operational efficiency of the KYC processes.
Financial Security
The "Group Financial Security" (GFS)
domain is a department divided into two teams, one located in Paris and the
other in NYC. GFS Paris is primarily responsible for the prevention of money
laundering and the fight against corruption
and terrorist financing, while the main role of GFS U.S. is to supervise and coordinate the Group's
efforts to comply with U.S. and other international sanctions and embargoes.
*Group Financial Security
of Interests of Clients (PIC)
The mission of the « Protection of Interests of Clients » (PIC) domain is to make sure that BNP Paribas clients:
· are offered products and services that truly meet their needs
· are provided with clear and accurate information on product features, costs and risks.
In that purpose, the PIC domain is ensuring Compliance with complex and changing local regulations designed to protect the clients' interests:
· throughout the duration of its relationship with the clients,
· throughout the life cycle of all products and services that BNP Paribas develops or sells.
PIC Compliance Officers work therefore with business lines to help them reinforce the primacy of clients' interests in their practices.
Market Integrity
The "Market Integrity"
domain is committed to ensure the Group activities compliance with:
- the rules applicable to : circulation of confidential and privileged information and prevention of insider trading, operations on financial instruments, pre and post market transparency rules, prevention and detection of market abuse, detection and management of conflict-of-interest situation.
the rules governing the organisation and rules of conduct applicable to the Group as a producer of financial services and instruments.
Professional Ethics
Professsional Ethics deals
with to the professional behavior of the Group's employees, in order to prevent
them from taking undue personal advantages from their professionnal position.
The Domain sets professional conduct rules and promotes a culture of probity,
aiming at protecting the Group and its employees specifically against the risks
of corruption, market abuse and conflicts of interests.

Location description from owner
The Region of Murcia region
La Manga is situated approximately 80 miles south of Alicante on the Costa Calida and is famous for the La Manga Strip. This unique strip divides the Mediterranean Sea from the natural Lagoon know as The Mar Menor.
The Mar Menor is the largest natural salt water lagoon in Europe and is well known for its shallow warm waters. Due to this the sea is calmer and stays at an average temperature of 18c throughout the year. The climate is very good all year round and is frequently around 90c during the summer months.
The Strip consists of numerous Hotels, Bars, Cafes, Restaurants with beaches on both coastlines.
There are two harbours including the very Cosmopolitan Marina to which there are numerous sailing club and ferries operating to such places as Santiago de Ribera with its weekly street Markets.

It also boasts a top Football Coaching Academy and is also used for training purposes by many of the worlds best Football Clubs, including the England squad.
The beautiful historic City of Cartagena is also only a short drive away with its fabulous shopping and the most beautiful Port and historic Buildings. The port has an interesting boat trip that gives you an insight of the history and local culture.
La Manga del Mar Menor
Many of the local beaches on the Mar Menor are well known for the therapeutic clay which can be found by wading out into the water, this is full of minerals and salts and the local folk cover their skin with it and bake in the sun. This is said to be good for skin complaints, rheumatism and arthritis.
There are regular boat and ferry trips from the Marina which is a 10 minute walk away. You can also hire or charter a boat or hire Jet Ski's from the Marina to explore this wonderful coastline.
The Marina itself boasts a wealth of excellent Restaurants, Cafes were you can sit out and enjoy watching the sun going down over the Mar Menor and the mountains beyond.

"This is a perfect apartment! A relaxing holiday in an amazing location."
John (owner) was great right from the beginning and was even able to change our rental dates when our airline company cancelled our flights. The apartment was spotless and has everything needed for our family of 6 with 4 teenagers. Big rooms, comfortable beds and the air-conditioning was a godsend! The views are spectacular with amazing sunrises and sunsets. Lovely warm breeze making it perfect to sit on the balcony for breakfast, lunch or an evening drink. The beaches on either side of the block are spotless and were fairly quiet and the water is warm. There is a supermarket a few minutes walk away with a few restaurants located there and a couple of minutes further to a wide selection of good restaurants and bars at the Marina. There's a Burger King very close by if the children can't live without it. Tony and Hayley keep the apartment immaculate and are very quick to help with any questions. The apartment block seems to be mainly residential so you will not experience any rowdy holidaymakers or late night noise. We took trips to Cartagena, Murcia and Alicante which were all lovely but if you are going, make sure it is outwith Siesta time as most shops close. All in all we had a great time and hopefully we will be back before too long. We travelled with two 19 year olds, a 17 year old and a 14 year old.
"Very well-appointed apartment, excellent location."
Beautifully clean, attractive and very comfortable apartment and the location could not have been bettered - our biggest decision each day was whether to swim in the Med or the Mar Menor - both right on our doorstep. The spacious balcony was perfect for breakfasts watching the sunrise over the islands opposite. Well-stocked supermarket 10m walk away and harbour with decent choice of restaurants. We took the No 15 bus down the strip and walked back up the 12 km on the beach - rewarded with ice-cold Mojitos at the beach bar! The apartment block and pool were spotless and well-maintained. Also the whole area was nice and quiet at this time. There were only two of us, but the apartment would easily provide high quality accommodation for up to six. The owner was very friendly, efficient and quick to reply to queries/e-mails. Very relaxing holiday and a highly recommended property.

Concorso Italiano is pleased to introduce a new chapter in the long history of this wonderful event. Earlier this year after learning that the on-going hotel and golf course construction at Bayonet Black Horse Golf Courses would restrict its ability to hold the event in the space it requires, or at the caliber it deserves, and cause the guests to park off-site, they began searching for a new and long-term home.
After reviewing many different sites on the Monterey Peninsula, they are very excited to announce their decision. This year will be the beginning of a wonderful new era as Concorso Italiano moves to the Marina California Airport – just 10 miles north of Monterey itself.
This site will give them tremendous opportunity to expand and to introduce new and exciting features. They are keeping all of the aspects that you have come to love about Concorso Italiano including the Fashion Show, the On-stage Commentary with Car Owners and Celebrities, the Wonderful Music, the Beautiful Cars, Riva yachts and of course the festive atmosphere.
This year they will also enjoy vintage aircraft and for the first time at Concorso Italiano, professionally catered Food and Beverage. They will also be adding shaded seating areas where you can relax and view the beautiful cars and the mountain backdrop of the Coastal Range.
Marina City Manager, Anthony Altfeld says, "We want to make sure that we prepare the site well for this major concours. I have scheduled a meeting with the City's Executive Team to make sure everyone knows how important it is that we make this first Concorso a truly 'World Class' event. First impressions make all the difference and you have my commitment that the city will do all that it can to work with the Concorso Italiano team to ensure success."
Mike Graham, Director at Large for the Ferrari Club of America Pacific Region, (who has measured the new site for layout) says, "This will give us a much better opportunity to be creative and to display a more aesthetically pleasing design of cars that will be much more enjoyable for everyone."
Jim Heady, President of the Lamborghini Club America says, "The new site gives us more open space and the ability to bring in our exotics more efficiently, which allows us more time to enjoy all of the aspects of what Concorso Italiano has become. We are also pleased that there will be an all new dining experience at the Gold Class Luncheon."
The New Venue Also Offers:
Easy Access / excellent parking, the ability to blend vintage aircraft with beautiful cars in a significant but non active and quiet area of the airport, a coastal setting that will be cool and pleasant, a place to see old friends in a new and exciting setting.
Additionally, Concorso Italiano announces yet another new chapter in this historic event.
Concorso Gala scheduled for Thursday, August 14th before Concorso Italiano, will feature Cocktails, Dinner by Il Fornaio, Fashion, Live Music, beautiful Italian Automobiles, Vintage Aircraft, and more. This event will provide an excellent opportunity for VIPs, Corporate Partners and a select number of Patrons, to enjoy an intimate evening of dining and entertainment.
For the inaugural Concorso Gala there are only 500 tickets available.
For ticketing call (425) 742-0632 or go to www.concorso.com
Concorso Italiano, a Celebration of Italian Style, in its 23rd year, is a multi-faceted automotive and luxury lifestyle event held each year as part of the Monterey Automotive Weekend anchored by the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.
