Professor teaches therapeutic benefits of dance for mind, body and soul By TROY FULTZ contributing columnist There is a certain type of pain that comes with being gay, only to be counterbalanced with an overwhelming form of joy. The true struggle is having the conviction to be who you really are, while the world is telling you otherwise. You have to ignore all other voices. Ignore all social limitations, constraints and ignore all perceived obstacles. According to a review conducted at Loyola Marymount University in 2011, approximately 3.8 percent of individuals in the United States identify as gay, bisexual or transgender. An estimated 9 million adults are LGBTQ identified with an even larger percentage identifying as having same-sex attractions. So why does this matter? What do your actions have to do with queer community? Trust me, a lot. The number one concern of being LGBTQ at JMU is certainly the ignorance of acknowledgement. Never speculate that the appearance or mannerisms or effeminate/ masculine qualities of individuals make them gay.

Shareholder: Last year we announced plans to separate our Household Products and Personal Care businesses into two independent, publicly traded companies. The separation will occur by means of a spin-off of a newly formed company named Energizer SpinCo, Inc. (“New Energizer”), which will own the Household Products business currently owned by Energizer Holdings, Inc. (“ParentCo”). ParentCo, the existing publicly traded company, will continue to own its Personal Care business. The separation is expected to create two strong, independent public companies with distinct brands, categories and corporate strategies. ParentCo will continue to be a leading consumer products company with an attractive stable of well-established brand names, including Schick® and Wilkinson Sword® in Wet Shave; Edge® and Skintimate® in shave preparation; Playtex®, Stayfree®, Carefree® and o.b.® in Feminine Care; and Banana Boat® and Hawaiian Tropic® in Sun Care. With batteries and portable lighting products, New Energizer is expected to generate strong margins and significant cash flows, and will be anchored by the universally recognized Energizer® and Eveready® brands. The separation will be effected by means of a pro rata distribution of 100% of the outstanding shares of New Energizer common stock to holders of ParentCo common stock. Each ParentCo shareholder will receive one share of New Energizer common stock for every share of ParentCo common stock held as of the close of business on June 16, 2015, the record date for the distribution.
