Because this nightmare is a very real problem .. When a child is missing, it is the most emotionally exhausting experience a family may ever face. To help parents take action if this tragedy should ever occur, WKJF -AM and WKJF -FM organized a program to provide the most precise child identification possible. These Fetzer radio stations contacted a local video movie dealer and the Cadillac area Jaycees to create video prints of each participating child as the youngster talked and moved. Afterwards, area law enforce- ment agencies were given the video tape for their permanent files. WKJF -AM/FM organized and publicized the program, the Jaycees donated man- power, and the video movie dealer donated the taping services-all absolutely free to the families. The child video print program enjoyed area -wide participation and is scheduled for an update. Providing records that give parents a fighting chance in the search for missing youngsters is all a part of the Fetzer tradition of total community involvement.

  • COVID-19. Rarely Does the World Offer Proof of an Academic Argument, and Even More Rarely in a Single Word Or Term
    PREFACE TO THE PAPERBACK uU COVID-19. Rarely does the world offer proof of an academic argument, and even more rarely in a single word or term. But there it is. COVID-19 has shown us in the starkest terms—life and death—what happens when we don’t trust science and defy the advice of experts. As of this writing, the United States leads the world in both total cases and total deaths from COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus that appeared in 2019. One might think that death rates would be highest in China, where the virus first emerged and doctorswere presumably caught unpre- pared, but that is not the case. According to The Lancet— the world’s premier medical journal—as of early October 2020, China had confirmed 90,604 cases of COVID-19 and 4,739 deaths, while the United States had registered 7,382,194 cases and 209,382 deaths.1 And China has a population more than four times that of the United States. If the United States had a pandemic pattern similar to China, we would have seen only 22,500 cases and 1128 deaths. While COVID-19 has killed people across the globe, death rates have been far higher in the United States than in other wealthy countries, such as Germany, Iceland, South Korea, New Zealand, and Taiwan, and even than in some much poorer x • Preface to the Paperback countries, such as Vietnam.2 The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine puts the US death rate per 100,000 people at 65.5.3 In Germany it is 11.6.

  • COVID-19: a Weekly Health Care Update from Washington April 13-17, 2020
    COVID-19: A Weekly Health Care Update from Washington April 13-17, 2020 IN BRIEF What Happened This Week: Negotiators failed to reach consensus on a proposal to provide additional support for small businesses this week (hospital funding was one of the major sticking points, although negotiations are progressing). Meanwhile, at the White House, President Trump and members of the Coronavirus Task Force unveiled the details of a new phased approach to “reopen” the nation’s the economy yesterday and instructed state governors to take the lead. What to Expect in the Weeks and Months Ahead: Expect lawmakers to continue negotiating a path forward for additional small business support; expect lawmakers to continue working remotely on additional measures tied to the pandemic; and expect the Trump Administration to continue providing clarity and guidance on the distribution of funds and implementation of other major provisions in the first three COVID-19 bills. DEEP DIVE President Trump Unveils “Guidelines for Opening Up America Again”; Instructs State Governors to Take the Lead on a Phased Reopening of the Economy President Trump and members of the White House Coronavirus Task Force unveiled the details of a new phased “reopening” of the nation’s economy using a “deliberate, data-driven approach.” The Administration leaves much of the decision-making to the states but instructs them to open up gradually after benchmarks on new cases, testing, and hospital resources are met. As far as timing goes, Coronavirus Task Force Response Coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx said there is no set schedule for any of the guideline’s three phases.

  • What Are the Implications of Minimum Wage Regulations on Franchising?
    What Are the Implications of Minimum Wage Regulations on Franchising? Alicia Cofiño Robert Emerson J.D. March 20, 2015 1 Abstract Franchising is often overlooked when people speak about “big business.” However, franchise companies are often those that consumers use almost every day. Franchises include chain restaurants such as McDonald’s and Subway. Additionally, when the legal world and business world intertwine, franchises worldwide are affected. When specific laws about workers are discussed, the effects of these regulations on franchising need to be examined. Specifically, proposed regulations to increase the minimum wage vastly impacts franchisors and franchisees, not just employees and their families. This article examines the positive and negative effects of increasing the minimum wage requirement on United States franchising. 2 Table of Contents OVERVIEW ................................................................................................................................................. 4 HISTORY ................................................................................................................................................... 10 FRANCHISE LAW ...................................................................................................................................... 10 MINIMUM WAGE REGULATION ............................................................................................................... 13 Figure 1: Historical Minimum Wage Prices Adjusted for Inflation ..................................................

  • UMBC Alumnae Racing to Develop Coronavirus Vaccine
    Newsletter SPRING 2020 To our UMBC/Meyerhoff families: We hope you and your families are all doing well during this strange and stressful time of Covid- 19. Although the world has changed quickly with so many things shut down and many of us sheltering at home, we hope this newsletter will represent a ray of sunshine during a dark and difficult time. Please enjoy this positive representation of our student and alumni community. MPA Board UMBC Alumnae Racing to Develop Coronavirus Vaccine Kizzmekia Corbett ’08, M16, biological sciences, says it feels like she’s “living in a constant adrenaline rush.” Maybe that’s because she and her team at the Vaccine Research Center at the National Insti- tute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases have been working around the clock for weeks. They’re racing to develop a vaccine for the coronavirus faster than it can race across the globe. “To be living in this moment where I have the opportunity to work on something that has imminent global importance…it’s just a surre- al moment for me,” Corbett says. Despite it feeling surreal, the advances Corbett and her team are making are very real, and they’re setting records. “We are making better progress than I could have ever hoped for,” she says. After three months of studies in test tubes and in animals, the vaccine her team developed is about to enter a phase I clinical trial, a crucial hur- dle on the way to FDA approval.
