Meat Institute Submits Comments Regarding FDA's Proposed Changes to Track Antimicrobial Sales and Distribution DataMonday, November 20, 2017
(North American Meat Institute)
The Meat Institute submitted comments in response to the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) proposal to use a biomass denominator to adjust annual data regarding the amount of antimicrobials sold or distributed for use in food-producing animals in the U.S. The purpose of the proposed biomass denominator is to provide estimates of annual antimicrobial drug sales adjusted for the size of the animal population (the animal biomass) potentially being treated with those drugs. FDA believes these adjusted estimates will provide insight into shifts in the amount of antimicrobials sold for use in food-producing animals and will give the agency a better understanding of why sales increase or decrease over time.
In its comments, the Meat Institute contends antimicrobial sales data will not provide useful or accurate information about the shifts in antimicrobial use and resistance. The Meat Institute instead recommends that FDA support USDA's Antimicrobial Resistance Action Plan to "collect useful data that will help livestock procurers and veterinarians become even more judicious in their use of antimicrobials in their animals."share on facebook share on twitter

On Sunday, April 8, the 9th annual Trashion/ReFashion Runway Show was held at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater. A fundraiser for the Center for Sustainable Living, the show featured 80 locally made designs, all of which consisted of at least 90 percent recycled materials.
The show's Trashion category presented designs made from waste materials other than traditional fabric, while the ReFashion category showcased up-cycled and reimagined clothing. Items repurposed for the designs included used dryer sheets, fruit rinds, mylar balloons, and even an old Trashion design.
The event was sponsored by Plato's Closet.

Anti-diabetic drug won't be available for 15-30 days
Though the ban on the anti-diabetic drug pioglitazone has been revoked, city chemists said it would take 15 days to one month before the drug is available once again at medical stores.mumbai Updated: Aug 05, 2013 09:25 IST
Though the ban on the anti-diabetic drug pioglitazone has been revoked, city chemists said it would take 15 days to one month before the drug is available once again at medical stores.
This means that the 35 lakh diabetics in India who, according to various doctors' associations, were consuming this drug, will have to wait.
The union health ministry had banned the drug on July 18 for its association with various health risks, it but revoked the ban on July 31 on the condition that the drug would be sold in new packing with a warning about its side effects.
Some of the health risks associated with drug include increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, bladder cancer and weight gain.
The ban led to protests by doctors and patients, who said the ministry's decision had been hasty and soon after, the ban was removed unconditionally.
More than 95% diabetic patients in India suffer from type 2 diabetes and doctors said insulin resistance is a major complication.
Insulin resistance is more common in Asian Indians, so glitazones have been more popular in India, said doctors
The low cost of the drug is a big reason for its popularity.
In India, the drug costs R1 to R4 per tablet.
The drug has an estimated annual market of R700 crore Pioglitazone is used to improve glucose control in adults with type 2 diabetes.
It allows internal insulin to work in the body,doctors said.
The US FDA approved pioglitazone, in 1999, to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus.
It is usually prescribed as second- or third-line treatment in diabetic patients
Pioglitazone was banned in France in 2011 was removed conditionally.
"As per the notification, the drug can be sold only if it carries the warning literature," said Damji Pallan from Retail Drug and Chemist Association (RDCA), Mumbai.
"The stock we have does not have the necessary warnings so we are waiting for manufacturing companies to take back the stock and repackage it," Pallan said.
Before the ban, around 5,000 strips of pioglitazone drug were sold on a monthly basis at a chemist store, according to the RDCA.
"With warnings on boxes, initiating new patients on this drug will be difficult. But those patients who have been on pioglitazone are waiting to get back on the drug," said a diabetologist, requesting anonymity.
"As a result of the ban, many patients who were on pioglitazone have switched to other drugs or insulin," said Dr Rajiv Kovil, diabetologist.
"They will have to continue with the alternatives prescribed until the drug with the prescribed warning arrives," he added.

This article explores the role of Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) in furthering bilateral attempts by Somali regimes and the international community in restoring peace and functional social institutions in Somalia. It highlights how an inclusive reconciliation process that covers social actors and stakeholders can repair the eroded trust and fosters peaceful coexistence. The core discourse focuses on the roles played by CSOs in the negotiation and bridging gaps between communities and the government through a fair and equitable non-partisan framework for restoring peace in Somalia. The emphasis will be placed on the sociocultural dynamics CSOs can bring within the context of the process to bridge social and political gaps created by decades of civil strife. The article concluded that a quest for sustainable peace, institutional development, and effective governance requires equitable contributions and representation of the CSOs and local communities' stakeholders. Most efforts put forth by political elites in the government and the international community have faced lot of resistance because of competing interests. Therefore, it is of vital importance that political elites, community leaders, and regional bodies encourage the participation of Somali CSOs and stakeholders in all aspects of the post-conflict socio-economic and political reconstruction. The article suggests a new approach to redefine CSO roles in the reconciliation process and rehabilitation of sociopolitical and economic challenges posed by decades of the ongoing political and civil unrest in the country.

EMC Hire is the largest hire company for specialist equipment in the RF and EMC field. Their partnership with WEMEC Ltd and Frequensys Ltd also provide customers with an extensive portfolio of additional EMC and electrical-related services including on-site measurements, chamber validations and equipment procurement.
EMC Hire first came to Realnet in 2008, with a dated website that lacked visual appeal, design hierarchy, strong SEO and a consumer-focused approach.
Specifically, one of the greatest challenges was presenting the vast array of products that EMC Hire offers in a neatly-categorised way to allow visitors to find what they were looking for quickly.
EMC Hire needed a way to keep their product list up to date, and self-manage content, images and ways to surface featured products on the home page.
Realnet's first rendering of the website answered each of these challenges, and the site – now in it's the third iteration – has continued to evolve to meet modern design and functionality standards.
A fresh new look has lightened up the site, with visual appeal highlighted in the large images on the home page.
An improved product filtering system makes the site extremely easy to navigate, with clear visual cues guiding visitors to where they want to go.
There is now a news module so that more dynamic content can be maintained and displayed on the home page.
SEO has been refined to ensure EMC Hire is found for the vast array of search terms used for their product range.
The new site is also easier to manage via LeanCMS and enables the home page banners and portals to be changed to reflect new offers, featured products and more.
EMC Hire's new website has experienced remarkable results, with the refined SEO leading to an increase in organic search traffic of 10.5%, and an improvement in the number of sessions by 11.25%.

Big B refuses Aussie doctorate in protest against 'racial' attacks
May 31st
By Agenices
New Delhi: Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan has reacted to the racial attacks on Indian students in Australia, by rejecting an honourary doctorate offered to him by an Australian university.
The Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, had offered him a doctorate for his contribution to the world of entertainment, and Bachchan had earlier accepted the title. The honour was to be conferred on the star in July.
'I have been witnessing with great dismay and shock, the recent violent attacks on Indian students in Australia, on the electronic media the entire day,' Bachchan wrote in his blog. 'I mean no disrespect to the Institution, but under the circumstances, where citizens of my own country are subjected to such acts of inhuman horror, my conscience does not permit me to accept this decoration from a country that perpetrates such indignity to my fellow
PAYING GUESTS' climax : a riot of sorts
May 31st
|May 30, 2009 5:04:09 PM IST
Joginder Tuteja, Bollywood Trade News Network
So often we see a good film going kaput due to a terrible climax. Whether it is a suspense flick or a full on comedy affair, there have been numerous instances when a film has fallen flat because the writer and director couldn't deliver that final punch during the concluding moments. However, if the makers of PAYING GUESTS are to believed, that won't be the case with this laughaton which is a multi starrer in it's own right, what with as many as five on-screen couples arriving on screen.
Confirms a course attached to the film, "The climax is the highlight of PAYING GUESTS. The movie had come out brilliantly and if the written material was a rage, then what you would see on screen has surpassed even that. Actors like Shreyas Talpade and Javed Jaffrey have been known for their comic timing and they have got it on full display in PAYING GUESTS."
Though she is not willing to reveal much about how the film's climax unfolds, she hints that it would be a riot of sorts, what with PAYING GUESTS boasting of such an enormous star cast.
"In spite of such a huge number of actors who would be seen on a common frame, there is a definite space for anyone and everyone", adds the source, "Haven't we seen that in DHAMAAL earlier, which was written by Paritossh Painter himself, who is now making his directorial debut with PAYING GUESTS? We are just waiting for the strike to be off and once that happens, we would become really aggressive with the promotion of the film. It has come out really well and is a complete laugh affair, especially during the climax."
A film that features Shreyas and Javed playing women for most duration, PAYING GUESTS also features Aashish Chaudhary, Vatsal Sheth, Neha Dhupia, Celina Jaitley, Riya Sen and Sayali Bhagat along with Johney Lever and Delnaz Paul. A Subhash Ghai production, the film has music by Sajid-Wajid.
'Marriage is on the cards'-Ameesha Patel

Ameesha Patel talks about shaadi and romance with Kanav
OMAR QURESHI Times News Network (BOMBAY TIMES; May 31, 2009)
Ameesha Patel is in a brutal mood. She's not about to sit down and take any questions. She's ready to punch back. And in a no-holds barred, rocking interview with BT, she tells us of her current mood, her hot new avatar, marriage plans and romance with beau Kanav
Some friends have let you down. Do you regret any relationships now?
• None at all. I know there are some mistakes I've made in some decisions. But it's okay. I've learned from every one of them. And as far as my relationships and friendships are concerned, I haven't regretted a day of anything.
Don't look now, but Ameesha is changing — from cutie-next-door to hot new sizzler! So why not do a hot-hot, full-fledged role, rather than just an item song (Lazy Lamhe)?
• I guess I was testing the waters. I played a dumb bimbette, whose only interest in life is to be fashionable. It was a brand new avatar I had to present. Remember, I was this demure Gadar girl that you take home to your parents. A sweet, salwar kameez-wearing girl. And my audiences liked me like that. I had to change to see whether I fitted in and whether I'd be accepted as a hottie. I was scared to completely take on a full fledged hot role. Today I'm confident to take on any sizzling avatar.
How did you find true love with Kanav?
• Kanav is from London. He's a hotelier and shuttles between Delhi and London. On one of his business trips, I met him through a common friend. We had coffee over casual conversation. Then about seven-eight months later, we bumped into each other again when I went into Delhi, and we just clicked. We exchanged telephone numbers and that was it. We realised there was a hell of a lot of chemistry happening here and we've never looked back.
Who was more intense and which of the two, more romantic?
• There is a huge amount of intensity between us. In every which way. I mean, physically, emotionally, personally. Surprisingly, for a guy, he's actually very romantic and very caring and realises little-little things, and does the little things that make all the difference. That doesn't just mean taking me on great holidays or giving me great gifts. All that is, actually, easier to do. It's the little things that matter, that you have the depth to understand and give to that person.
So marriage is definitely on the cards?
• Aah yes! Eventually marriage is on the cards!
Dont watch my film RAAKH-Aamir Khan!

Aamir Khan's dead against the re-release of his film in multiplexes
DEEPALI DHINGRA Times News Network (BOMBAY TIMES; May 31, 2009)
Anvita Thapliyal, speaking on behalf of the production house that's re-releasing Raakh, says that by doing so, they want to revive Indian cinema. "It's a great film that deserves another chance," she says, adding that they have plans of reviving other films as well. As for which theatres they would release the film in case the strike doesn't end, she says, "It's not yet decided if we will release it in single screen theatres or multiplexes. We will do whatever is best for the film but the film has a lot of potential for single screen theatres, specially in the interiors, where they might not have multiplexes." It should be noted that the other films that were re-released in the past two months including Ghajini, Race, Jodhaa Akbar, A Wednesday, Oye Lucky Lucky Oye, Rang De Basanti, Fashion, Golmaal Returns and Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi were screened only in single screen theatres.

In the film, Bachchan tutors five of his brightest protégées, played by Madhavan, Siddharth Kher, and newcomers Dhruv Ganesh, Vaibhav Talwar and Shraddha Kapoor for high-stake gambling, but with a cause.
Bunty Walia finds a unique way of finding buyers for Lamhaa
May 30th
By Subhash K. Jha, May 30, 2009 – 10:30 IST
Thanks to the recession and the stand-off between producers and multiplex, theatres the biggest of films under-production are lying unsold.
Director Rahul Dholakia's Kashmir saga Lamhaa is one such multi-crore film that is waiting for buyers. In spite of heavyweights like Sanjay Dutt, Bipasha Basu and Kunal Kapoor in the cast Lamhaa has found no takers yet.
Producer Bunty Walia has found a unique way of selling his film. He has put together a 6-minute trailer of Lamhaa which he will now send to 30 distributors across the country.
Walia hopes the trailer would convince distributors to invest in Lamhaa. Says the harassed producer. "I know this is a very unorthodox way of selling a film. But do we have a choice? Gone are the days when we producers wouldn't show a frame of our films to distributors until it was complete. "
In fact Bunty flew to Goa where Dutt is shooting, with his 6-minute trailer-showreel and got the actor's approval. Says Bunty, "Sanju loved it. Nothing is being done without his approval. Sanju is the backbone of Lamhaa. He grew a beard especially for the film. Then kept it right until the end. He shaved off the beard on the day he left for Lucknow to campaign for the Samajwadi Party."
Now, apparently, Dutt is taking a keen interest in the completion, sale and marketing of his films. Several of his films including Zee's Chatur Singh Two Star and Lamhaa are yet to find buyers.
But Walia says it's only a matter of time. "The break that he took send out wrong signals in the market. Now that he's back full-swing, the market knows Sanju is here for good. See, content is king. And if you've a film with a high content then you've nothing to worry about.
Angels & Demons will not open in multiplexes
May 30th
Friday, May 29, 2009 2:02 IST
Mumbai: Don't look for the Tom Hanks-starrer Angels and Demons in your neighbourhood multiplex. The film's distributor, Sony Pictures, will not release it in multiplexes on Friday in support of the Hindi film producers' standoff with multiplex owners.
Industry sources said the film, a prequel to The Da Vinci Code, will release only in single-screen theatres. No new Hindi films have been released since April 4 as a result of the strike, but that has not stopped the release of Hollywood films in multiplexes.
But Angels and Demons will be an exception as the producers have made Hindi films, including Saawariya and Straight in India, earlier.
According to a source, UPDF (The United Producers and Distributors Front) pressurised Kercy Daruwala, managing director of the company in India, to withhold the film from multiplexes. Daruwala, however, was unwilling to confirm this. He told DNA, "We are in negotiations with multiplexes. I am not sure about the outcome."
Ramesh Sippy of UPDF said the film will not release in multiplexes. "The film is on hold. I don't know what will happen," he said.
Corroborating this, Utpal Sanghvi, vice-president, programming and distribution, of the multiplex chain Inox, said, "Angels and Demons is not releasing in national and non-national multiplexes. They are asking for a 55% share of the profit, which is impossible. They are definitely doing this in support of the striking Bollywood producers."
If the film does not release in multiplexes, it could result in huge losses for the distributors as 60-65% of the profit of an English film released in India comes from multiplexes.
Major player offers formula to end multiplex standoff
May 30th
Bharati Dubey | TNN (THE TIMES OF INDIA; May 30, 2009)
Mumbai: A major multiplex has blinked. And United Forum chairman Mukesh Bhatt hopes a solution to the standoff will emerge by Monday. This large multiplex chain (possibly Big Cinemas), which is also a film production company (Big Pictures), is trying to get other multiplex chains to reach a settlement with the United Forum (UF). Insider info reveals this chain, which is all set to release the debut film of an actor (Jacky Bhagnani's KAL KISSNE DEKHA), has already agreed to the terms laid down by the UF and are under tremendous pressure from the multiplex association, which is still not ready to accept distributors holding control over the release of films.
"The chain has agreed upon complete control of distribution being with the producers and distributors, who will have the right to choose and release the film in theatres based on content,'' says a source. "Also, all accounting discrepancies have been acknowledged and are to be eradicated from now on. Entertainment tax will not be charged where it is not applicable. And the equal rights for Friday nights mantra—all films (including Hollywood films) will get 50-42.5-37.5-30 terms in the first four weeks—will be followed,'' adds the source.
The major chain is said to have taken these terms to the Multiplex Association of India (MAI), suggesting they all follow the same. While some multiplexes are ready to go with them, other hardliners are still not okay with the distribution strategy and also want a bigger share of revenue. "They're asking for 50-42.5-30-27.5,'' reveals an insider.
If the major chain fails to convince others in the MAI, there's every chance of it breaking away from the cartel. "This will work well for the chain as well as the UF. The two together can release films and revive the industry,'' says a source. The major chain has about 150 screens all over the country.
Recently, the UF had agreed to release films on single screens and Vashu Bhagnani's Kal Kissne Dekha was to be the first in line. But Big Pictures, the distributors of the film (also multiplex owners) wanted Bhagnani to release the film in multiplexes as well. The release of Kal Kissne Dekha was postponed to June. As of Friday, Sony Picture's latest release Angels & Demons released on single screens.
According to UF chairman Mukesh Bhatt, "Big Pictures is trying to mediate with multiplexes and resolve matters. Things are looking very positive on both sides so we hope we will be able to arrive at a solution by Monday.''
Strike update: Early next week holds the key
May 30th
The industry has been agog with talk that the warring factions [producers/distributors - multiplexes] have reached a solution. The truth is, they haven't. The two sides have been talking to each other on a regular basis [the dialogue never stopped], but they haven't reached a consensus yet.
A crucial meeting was held on Wednesday [May 27] at a suburban hotel and the producers/distributors have put forth their terms/demands. The multiplexes were conveyed through Amit Khanna and they [plexes] are supposed to get back, by early next week.
So, Monday/Tuesday is the day when a clearer picture should emerge. That's the latest on this front!

Sonic Riders
Digital Dimension is a remake of the course Babylon Guardian in Sonic Riders.
This race course consists of an underworld, a heaven, and a digital dimension. Near the beginning of the course, ghostly hands appear from the ground trying to grab the player. At some point of the stage, there is a large gate which transports the player from the underworld to the heaven part of the course. Near the end of the course, it turns into a digital dimension.
- Despite being a Heaven and Hell track, this resembles the Dark Garden and the Hero Garden from Sonic Adventure 2 because of the setting of this track.
- The track's BGM has noticeable differences between the version used in-game and the one found on the soundtrack. In the soundtrack version, the synths are accompanied by percussion, while in-game the percussion is absent altogether from the beginning.

Favor & Grace
Ms. Ela Flomo, mother of five, shares her appreciation for Alfalit International giving her little girls, Favor and Grace, the opportunity to receive a proper education.
Ms. Ela Flomo:
"I always prayed that my children do not end up illiterate like me, and today Alfalit L-GM is sponsoring two of my kids in school. I have 5 children and I'm a single mother. I wash people clothes in the neighborhood to survive, especially to feed my children.
Before Alfalit started supporting my twins in school -Grace and Favor Boakai, two of the other ones have not been going to school, because I don't have the money to support them.
When I heard about Alfalit L-GM supporting poor children in schools, I decided to ask for help for the two younger ones (Favor and Grace) and as God could have it, they were accepted this academic year.
I am grateful to Alfalit that my two children will not end up illiterate like me. As far as the other three, a good community neighbor is helping me with them. Although I did not go to school, I know the importance of education because when my children get education, they will help me in the future and in my old age."

Butterfield Of North Carolina: Criminal Justice Reform Crucial To Fix Racial Disparity By Anita Rao & Frank Stasio & Jess Clark • May 7, 2015 In the wake of events in Ferguson, Mo., and Baltimore, Md., U.S. Rep. G.K. Butterfield (D-NC) leads the Congressional Black Caucus at a tumultuous time for race relations in the country. The congressman told Frank Stasio of WUNC's The State of Things that he sees racial and socioeconomic tensions across the U.S. "There are Fergusons and Baltimores all across this country. It's not unique to these communities. It could even be here in North Carolina," Rep. Butterfield said. NC's Photo ID Voting Requirement May Be Challenged In Trial This July By Jorge Valencia • Jan 31, 2015 Flickr Creative Commons/ Ken Zirkel Voting rights advocates argued in a Wake County court on Friday that a new state law requiring voters to show photo identification at polling stations is unconstitutional because it will create a barrier to voting, keeping primarily minorities from the ballot. More People Vote Early Than In Last Midterm Election By Jorge Valencia • Nov 2, 2014 Flickr user Jeffrey Cohen More North Carolina voters cast their ballots early this year than did in the last mid-term elections, according to State Board of Elections figures released Sunday. A new election law limited the number of early voting days but increased the total hours. Roughly 1.1 million people voted by mail or in person at polling stations by the end of early voting on Saturday, up 20 percent from 961,000 in 2010, the board of elections said. Here are three possible causes for the increased turn-out: NC Voters Can Register Same Day They Vote During Early Voting Period, Federal Court Says By Jorge Valencia • Oct 2, 2014 Jorge Valencia A federal appeals court has suspended parts of North Carolina's new voting law, saying it may disproportionately affect black voters. State lawmakers are already asking the U.S. Supreme Court to reverse the decision. The ruling will allow voters to register on the same day they cast a ballot during early voting, and to vote outside of their assigned precinct. Will Voting Law Changes Cause Confusion? By Catherine Brand & Michael Tomsic • Sep 25, 2014 Leoneda Inge A federal appeals Court in Charlotte heard arguments Thursday on whether or not changes to North Carolina's voting law can go into effect before the November election. The changes were passed by the Republican-led General Assembly last year. Critics argue the laws restrict access to voting, particularly among minority groups. The North Carolina NAACP has argued the changes are a violation of the 14th Amendment's equal protection clause, and of the 1965 Voting Rights Act. The NAACP Says This TV Ad Is Confusing North Carolina Voters By Jorge Valencia • Sep 16, 2014 Sen. Phil Berger The North Carolina NAACP is calling on state Senate Leader Phil Berger to stop broadcasting an ad about a new voting law. The civil rights organization says the ad is misleading and could keep some from voting. It's a political campaign spot airing on TV stations in the Triad. And it gives Sen. Phil Berger (R-Rockingham) credit for a 2013 law that changed many rules about voting in North Carolina. "Now," the narrator says, "thanks to Phil Berger, voters must show a valid ID to vote." NC Board Of Elections Rejects Early Voting Site For Appalachian State University By Will Michaels • Aug 26, 2014 Flickr creative commons Appalachian State University will not have a early voting site on campus for this year's general election.

Voter ID Law Now Rests In A Judge's Hands By editor • Jul 11, 2014 North Carolina's voter ID law has come under fire in the courts, challenged by lawyers from the U.S. Department of Justice, the NAACP and voting rights groups.

Recap: First 'Moral Monday' Rally Of This Legislative Season By Jorge Valencia • May 20, 2014 Jorge Valencia Hundreds of protesters gathered outside of the Legislative Building Monday afternoon. It was the beginning of what they say is a second year of rallies in response to laws passed by the state's Republican-led legislature. Like many of last year's Moral Monday rallies, this one started like a party. But it wasn't exactly a celebration. People protested new laws affecting education, Medicaid and voting. NC Voter ID Lawsuit Moves Forward In Federal District Court By Jessica Jones • Feb 22, 2014 YardsaleDan on Flickr Lawsuits challenging North Carolina's Voter ID law are moving forward in court.

The event follows last year's weekly Moral Monday rallies that criticized laws passed by North Carolina's Republican-led government. The new focus is on the fall elections. Thousands To March Downtown Raleigh In Opposition Of New North Carolina Laws By Jorge Valencia • Feb 8, 2014 Matthew Lenard Thousands of people are expected to march in downtown Raleigh on Saturday, some coming in buses from other states, to call on North Carolina legislators to reverse laws they've signed over the last year including requiring voters to show IDs in polling stations, reducing unemployment benefits and blocking Medicaid expansion.

Challenges To NC's Voter ID Law Will Be Heard After 2014 Elections By Jorge Valencia • Dec 13, 2013 Jorge Valencia A federal judge has ruled that challenges to the North Carolina law that requires voters to show identification at polling stations will not be heard until after the mid-term elections of 2014. U.S. District Court Magistrate Judge Joi Elizabeth Peake said in a a hearing Thursday that the law was too complex to be thoroughly reviewed prior to the November elections. Peake scheduled a trial for July 2015. Parties In NC Voter ID Lawsuit Can't Agree Even On A Trial Date By Jorge Valencia • Dec 11, 2013 Attorneys on both sides of four lawsuits challenging voting rules signed into law by North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory this year are scheduled to meet in U.S. District Court on Thursday morning to argue over an opening date for the trial. The two sides disagree on whether a trial should be heard before the 2014 mid-term elections. The plaintiffs, which include the North Carolina NAACP and the League of Women Voters, are asking the court to schedule for trial in August 2014. The attorneys representing the state are asking for a begin date no earlier than January 2015. Voter Identification Faces Uphill Battle By Alex Granados & Frank Stasio • Nov 8, 2013 Credit NC General Assembly The election this week was the last in North Carolina before some provisions of a voter ID law go into effect.

McCrory Calls Federal Lawsuit On New Voting Rules An 'Overreach' By Gurnal Scott • Oct 1, 2013 NC Governor's Office North Carolina governor Pat McCrory has criticized the federal Justice Department's lawsuit alleging racial discrimination over new voting rules as a government overreach. U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder criticized the law signed by McCrory in August, saying changes such as restrictions on certain types of ID and fewer early-voting hours would reduce participation rather than expand it. NAACP Radio Ad Attacks Voting Law Changes By Leoneda Inge • Sep 30, 2013 Leoneda Inge The state NAACP has started airing radio ads across North Carolina to educate voters on the new law. The radio ad features the booming voice of Reverend William Barber – state NAACP president. "Election day is one time we are all equal, whether you are young or old, rich or poor. When we vote we all have the same say, that is unless you live in North Carolina," said Barber in this ad. No More Pre-Registration Puts Youth Vote In Question By Dave DeWitt • Sep 6, 2013 Malate269 / Wikimedia Commons As the legislative wheels turn, the Voter Identification Verification Act was introduced, debated, and passed at light speed. It was late July - the last week of the General Assembly's session - when Republican leaders introduced the sweeping voting changes. State Board Of Elections To Hear Disputed Local Cases By Dave DeWitt • Sep 3, 2013 Local County Board of Elections meetings are usually quiet, lightly attended affairs. But in Watauga and Pasquotank Counties, recent meetings have been acrimonious and highly partisan. Last month, the Watauga County Board of Elections moved a polling site off of the Appalachian State University campus. Across the state, the Pasquotank County Board of Elections denied a college student a chance to run for local office. Both decisions were decried by Democrats as efforts to suppress the votes of young people. Since this spring, all local Boards of Elections are Republican-majority.

Hagan told WUNC's Frank Stasio those instances barely exist. In Rural N.C., New Voter ID Law Awakens Some Old Fears By Ailsa Chang • Aug 16, 2013 This week, North Carolina's governor signed a new law requiring a state-approved photo ID to cast a vote in a polling place and shortening the period for early voting.

Pat McCrory Defends New Voter ID Law By editor • Aug 13, 2013 The American Civil Liberties Union says it's going to take legal action to stop the country's newest — and one of its most restrictive — voter ID laws, signed into law yesterday by Republican Governor Pat McCrory of North Carolina. The new law requires voters to show government-issued photo ID cards, and outlaws college ID cards or out-of-state driver's licenses as valid forms of identification. The law also eliminates same-day voter registration, and allows any registered voter to challenge another's eligibility. McCrory On WUNC: 'Our Right To Vote Deserves Protection' By Laura Candler & Frank Stasio • Aug 12, 2013 NC Governor's Office Listen Listening... / 12:35 Frank Stasio talks to Gov. McCrory about the voter ID bill and other legislation he has signed this year. Governor Pat McCrory signed a bill today that requires voters to present a photo ID at the polls, despite opposition from Attorney General Roy Cooper. In addition to requiring a form of photo ID for voters, the bill also shortens early voting by one week. Hours after he signed the bill, the American Civil Liberties Union, the ACLU of North Carolina and the Southern Coalition for Social Justice filed a lawsuit challenging the bill. Attorney General Roy Cooper Asks Governor To Veto Voting Bill By Jessica Jones • Aug 9, 2013 N.C. Democratic Party North Carolina's Attorney General, Roy Cooper, is taking a very public stance to urge Governor Pat McCrory to veto a recently passed elections law bill. Among other things, the bill would shorten early voting by one week and require residents to show approved photo identification at the polls.Cooper's campaign has sent out a mass email to ask people to sign an online petition requesting the governor veto House Bill 589. He says if passed, the legislation would cause expensive litigation and potential confusion. State Senate Moves Toward Sweeping Election Changes By Dave DeWitt • Jul 24, 2013 Dave DeWitt If you plan to vote in a future election in North Carolina, the Voter Information Verification Act – if it passes – affects you. That goes double if you are a younger voter, don't have a driver's license, like to vote early, or may ever be subject to a random challenge of your status as a voter. 73 Arrested In 12th Moral Monday Demonstration By Dave DeWitt • Jul 23, 2013 Matthew Lenard Another demonstration on Halifax Mall led to 73 arrests Monday night. It was the 12th Moral Monday event protesting the Republican-led General Assembly. This demonstration centered on what protestors called undue cuts to education and a bill that would change voting requirements. Protesters said they don't like the provision in the voter ID bill that would cut back on early voting."That's ridiculous. That's absolutely ridiculous," said Antoinette Joyner of Winston-Salem.
