The connecting thread is their apparent suspicion that investment managers are undermining British industry, by making it unnecessarily expensive to raise new capital. It's a suspicion substantiated by the fact that the Office of Fair Trading is now concluding an inquiry into the fees charged by the City for underwriting new share issues for companies. Expected to report later this year or early next, the OFT may well toss the whole issue over to the Monopolies and Mergers Commission for a full investigation.
The OFT has opened a wriggling can of worms. Underwriting fees are only a small part of the larger argument, but because fund managers' fees are hard to defend, they may find it difficult to fight off a wider inquiry.
While market forces are rampant in the City, underwriting fees have been curiously immune from competition. Fees are 2 per cent of the value of a share issue, with 0.5 per cent going to the merchant bank, 0.25 per cent to brokers, and 1.25 per cent to sub-underwriters (mainly pension and insurance funds) who guarantee to buy the new shares if no one else will. Not surprisingly, the OFT suspects a cartel is driving the gravy train.
To head off an MMC inquiry, the National Association of Pension Funds and the Association of British Insurers are trying to demonstrate to the OFT that it is possible to make fees more competitive and flexible. After a meeting with the London Investment Banking Association (LIBA) earlier this month, the NAPF and the ABI wrote to their members warning them to expect more flexible under-writing fees.
One suggestion, which came from Schroders, was to auction part of the sub-underwriting to introduce competitive pricing. But LIBA admits it is unlikely that such innovations will be in the market place in time to impress the OFT. But not only may the initiative be too late, it is proving impossible to treat fees in isolation because they link into three other areas about which investing institutions are extremely sensitive: pre-emption rights for shareholders, the high dividends paid by British firms compared with overseas rivals, and the overall cost of capital.
Some institutions wonder whether they are being fitted up by an unholy alliance of US investment banks, and the Treasury, which is encouraging the OFT to blow open the whole capital-raising process.
Thus Mr Maude, who now works for Morgan Stanley but also chairs the Government's deregulation panel, is allied with Mr Mayo of Zeneca - a former Warburg executive who advised on the demerger from ICI - in wanting a thorough overhaul of the capital raising system and a whittling away of pre-emption rights. Cheering them on are the other London-based US investment banks, and firms such as SBC Warburg. These critics claim that pre-emption rights restrict the ability to market UK company shares to foreign investors, creating a blockage on the supply of cheaper capital.
The argument supporting the claim that pre-emption rights are too expensive, rests on the sale of equity in rights issues to shareholders - the new shares are normally at a discount, which is equivalent to adding a free scrip issue of new shares into the pot. To offset this, companies ought to cut their dividends, otherwise their total cash payouts will rise, making new capital expensive. But in reality, companies are too afraid of shareholder reaction to make such cuts -a fact which undermines the defence of the pre-emption rights system.
The NAPF and the ABI have belatedly written to their members suggesting directors do cut dividends when they make rights issues. Yet the strongest defence of pre-emption rights is the simplest. Why remove these rights at a time when most people agree that big shareholders should start exercising a longer term and more thoughtful discipline over their companies? There is no better moment to influence a company than when it comes forward cap in hand.

Driving 6-7hours from central London to the British coast, was well worth it!!!. Wonderful place and sunsets for photographers, surfers as well as lovely blue coloured oceans. Best hotel would be the Tolcarne beach apartments😊
Great for surfing with great views even though the weather wax bad there were a lot of surfers and dog walkers lovely clean beach for families
Tolcarne beach is simply amazing, I try and stay twice a year, to visit my grandchildren, the staff do everything they possibly can to help you.
If you are fit there is a steep cliff with stairs, sadly i am not, but I am more than happy to drive down, when you get there it's another world.
Large sandy beach with great views taking in the Harbour and other beaches in Newquay. Can be difficult to get on if disabled
The sea is clear, the sand is golden and clean and you can watch the surfers. Dogs allowed from Nov to March only but winter is my favourite time to visit
Standing on the footpath overlooking the guard rail is the super view of Tolcarne beach with the Atlantic Breakers and the surfers. Magical and a site for sore eyes to a city dweller from the North
A clean and interesting beach just below the main bus route in to Newquay. Not easily accessible however with more than one hundred steps to negotiate. Very good beach for surfers!
Lovely private beach - all, except dogs (March to Nov), can access. Watersports, easy access to town and facilities.
Stayed in Newquay for a couple of days at Victoria hotel and this beach is directly below.
Beautiful sands and the day we were there in November, virtually deserted.
Careful of the tides though, you can get caught out.
There are excellent views of "surfers" riding the waves. You can sit on one of the many benches along the front.

BOCA RATON, Fla. -- In the hours leading up to tonight's foreign policy debate, President Obama's aides and a powerful Republican congressman are mixing it up over security in Libya.
Obama aides criticized Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, for releasing documents that include the names of Libyan nationals who are -- were? -- secretly cooperating with the United States on security issues.
"Jeopardizing their lives -- carelessly, recklessly putting them at risk -- all to score political points in the final weeks before an election," said Obama campaign senior adviser David Axelrod, speaking on NBC's Meet The Press. "That's disgraceful. The way they have handled this issue is disgraceful."
Issa, who has been investigating the Obama administration's handling of the attack Sept. 11 on a consulate in Benghazi, Libya, said in a statement that the president's campaign aides are the ones playing politics.
"Obama administration officials and their surrogates are clearly reeling from revelations about how the situation in Benghazi was mishandled and are falsely politicizing the issue in a last ditch effort to save President Obama's re-election effort," Issa said.
The Libya morass is sure to be a topic in tonight's foreign policy debate between Obama and Republican opponent Mitt Romney.
Issa's committee is investigating security at the Benghazi compound leading up to the attack that killed four Americans, including U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens.
The GOP is asking questions about changing stories on the origins of the attack -- first attributed to a protest over an anti-Islam film, then to a preplanned terrorist assault.
Obama officials said the story behind the attack changed as the evidence did, and President Obama has vowed to track down the killers.

iPhone 6s Plus, Nexus 6P Battle for High-End Smartphone Supremacy
iPhone 6s Plus, Nexus 6P Battle for High-End Smartphone SupremacyThe iPhone 6s Plus has a new rival to contend with—the Nexus 6P. Both have are high-end smartphones with screens. Here is a comparison of the two devices.
Nexus 6P and iPhone 6s Plus Both Boast Large ScreensDisplay size is of major concern to consumers and enterprise customers, so it's no surprise that the Huawei-designed Nexus 6P tries to trump Apple on that front. The Nexus 6P comes with a 5.7-inch screen, compared with the 5.5-inch model in Apple's handset. The iPhone 6s Plus has 401 pixels per inch, which is substantially lower than the 518 pixels per inch available in the Nexus 6P.
A Surprisingly Similar Design ConceptFrom the front and side, the iPhone 6s Plus and the Nexus 6P look surprisingly similar. Both devices have a slim design and metal finish and come with a front panel that is dominated by a large screen and small bezel. The big difference, however, is the back of the devices, where the Nexus 6P has a camera area that adds some more depth. And since the Nexus 6P has a slightly larger screen, it's also a bit bigger than the iPhone 6s Plus.
Fingerprint Sensors Open OSes, Make PaymentsFingerprint sensors have become the go-to security feature for smartphone makers, and both these devices feature them. The iPhone 6s Plus has a fingerprint sensor on the front, called Touch ID, while the Nexus 6P's fingerprint sensor is on the back panel that provides slight haptic feedback when it's activated. Both sensors are capable of opening the operating system and making payments with their respective mobile wallets.
The Obvious: Operating Systems Are DifferentThe operating systems built into the Nexus 6P and the iPhone 6s Plus are about as different as they come. The Nexus handset comes with the standard version of Google's Android Marshmallow. Apple's iPhone 6s Plus, meanwhile, features the company's recently launched iOS 9. Those who prefer one over the other should keep that in mind before choosing a handset.
Consider the Device MakersThere are some companies that have a special affinity toward device makers. Many in the enterprise, for example, have seemingly taken a liking to Apple's products. Customers in China, especially, have a desire for Huawei-based products. Although both companies use China-based manufacturers for their product designs and have a strong track record for building solid devices, some may ultimately choose one over the other simply because of the company that makes them. In this battle, it's Huawei against Apple.
Which Device Will Win on Power?It's hard to say which device will ultimately win on power, since proper benchmarking for both products hasn't been completed. That said, it's quite possible that the Nexus 6P, equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor, featuring a 2GHz clock speed, is an early front-runner. The iPhone 6s Plus, however, is no slouch, boasting Apple's A9 chip that the company says is by far more powerful than previous models. When both devices do go up against each other in a power showdown, it will be interesting to see which one will ultimately win the day.
Cameras Matter in Today's WorldCameras matter greatly in today's selfie-obsessed world, which is likely why both the Nexus 6P and the iPhone 6s Plus come with updated snappers. The iPhone 6s Plus comes with a 12-megapixel rear-facing camera with 4K video recording capabilities. The device's front-facing camera has 5 megapixels and 720p HD video recording. The Nexus 6P, on the other hand, has a 12.3-megapixel rear-facing camera and 4K video recording, while the front-facing camera tops out at 8 megapixels. The front-facing Nexus 6P camera also has HD video capture.
Examine the Built-In SoftwareBuilt-in software is a major selling point for both iPhones and Android-based devices. With Apple's handsets, customers will find everything from Apple Pay to Apple News to the new and improved Notes. The iPhone 6s Plus also includes Apple Music and Apple Maps. The Nexus 6P, meanwhile, has a treasure trove of Google apps, including Google Maps, Gmail, Chrome and others. Choosing between the devices means choosing between Apple and Google apps.
Does 3D Touch Matter at All?One of the key features in Apple's iPhone 6s Plus is support for 3D Touch, a feature that allows users to gain extra functionality by modifying how they press down on the touch screen. Apple's 3D Touch is a feature not found in many of its competitors, but whether it's a killer feature that will take out the competition remains to be seen.
A Look at PricingIf it's pricing that will ultimately determine success in the marketplace, the Nexus 6P may have the advantage. The handset starts at $499 unlocked for the 32GB model and goes up to $649 for the 128GB option. If customers don't choose the iPhone Upgrade program that amortizes the cost of Apple's handsets over several months, the iPhone 6s Plus starts at $749 for 16GB of storage. The 128GB iPhone 6s Plus is available from $949.
It seems each week brings a new battle in the smartphone space. And many of those battles involve none other than Apple. In one of the latest battles, the iPhone 6s Plus, which Apple launched late in September, is taking on Google's Huawei-made alternative, the Nexus 6P. Both products come with big screens, high-end components and features that many consumers are seeking. In fact, one could argue that the iPhone 6s Plus and the Nexus 6P are among the best smartphones available. For that reason, many consumers and even some enterprise customers are pitting the two "phablets" against each other to determine which option would be best for them. While some of the differences are stark, there are nuances that, while not major, could be enough to make a customer pick one over the other. In the following slides, eWEEK will touch on both the major and the small differences to help would-be owners decide which product is best for them. Here is a comparison of the iPhone 6s Plus and the Nexus 6P.

Looking Back on 2011: BI, Mobility and Collaboration
To understand more about spending on technology for information workers, Forrester Research surveyed more than 2,700 IT executives and technology budget decision-makers in the spring of 2011. The firm published results from the survey in the December, 2011 report, "Forrsights: Analytics, Mobile, and Collaboration Lead 2011 Tech Investment Growth" (available to Forrester subscribers or for purchase).
Highlights from the Forrester study
In a nutshell, Forrester's findings indicate that IT investments are on the rise to help information workers become even more social and more mobile, and even better equipped to find meaning in data.
- IT orgs plan to increase spending on, and adoption of, BI software. BI/analytics topped the list for highest projected software spending increase, with an average planned spending increase of 3.9% in 2011 over 2010. Likewise, the #2 initiatives likely to be the IT organization's top technology priorities during the coming 12 months was increasing the use of BI and decision support tools and services. (Sixty eight percent of survey respondents said it was either a high priority or a critical priority.) These numbers make perfect sense when you consider that the top two business priorities in 2011 were growing overall company revenue (65% of survey respondents) and lowering the firm's overall operating costs (57%). Many organizations deploy BI to help them achieve exactly these goals.
- Nearly half of orgs are increasing investments in mobility. According to Forrester, growth in adoption of mobile technologies in the workplace was initially powered by employees who purchased their own smartphones and work-related mobile applications to increase productivity and efficiency. In response to user demand, 48% of firms surveyed said they planned to increase corporate spending on mobile apps and mobile middleware in 2011, 42% of firms said they planned to increase spending on smartphones, and 43% of firms said they would increase spending on tablets and application development.
- Almost 1/3 of orgs said they planned to increase spending on collaboration tools. Thirty two percent of firms said they planned to increase spending on collaboration applications from 2010 to 2011. According to Forrester, the need for these technologies has increased as the workforce becomes more dispersed, with benefits including improved collaboration and decision making, faster problem solving, and reduced travel expenses. Also, 26% of survey respondents said they planned to implement collaborative project management, case management, or services management apps in 2011—and 24% said they planned to implement a social media platform.
Information workers are mobile and social and need easily-accessible, user-friendly tools for exploring data, discovering insights, and arriving at decision. These warm and fuzzy Forrester numbers are indicative of a big effort on the part of organizations around the world to provide information workers—modern-day hunter-gatherers—with the best possible toolkit for getting the job done.

A Chicken is an item in EarthBound and Mother 3. It can be obtained if Ness and co. have a Fresh Egg in their inventory and wait. The egg will eventually hatch into a Chick, which will then grow into a Chicken.
If used, the Chicken will flee from the character's inventory, but they can be sold for considerably more than the Fresh Egg it originally came from is worth. This can be used as a simple way to obtain money early in the game. In Earthbound, the Chicken sells for $110 while Fresh Eggs cost $12.00, earning $98.00 in profit with each egg.
In Mother 3, a Chicken will periodically make clucking noises as long as it is in a character's inventory. Chickens also appear as NPCs at Alec's house.

Santa Marta lies at the foot of the snowcapped Sierra Nevada, the world's highest coastal range. The mountains are largely protected within Parque Nacional Tayrona. Hidden on their slopes are the pre-Columbian ruins of La Ciudad Perdida.
Although Santa Marta was founded in 1525, modern industry and architecture largely obscure its colonial heritage. Today the city's 200,000 inhabitants rely heavily on the deep-water port, where banana boats are anchored in thick clusters. Most of the cargo is legitimate, but Santa Marta also handles more contraband than any other Colombian port. In the 1970s that meant mostly marijuana; today cocaine reigns supreme. Santa Marta is mostly nonchalant and friendly, but inquisitiveness in this feral, fascinating city is unwise; some of its residents carry weapons as a matter of course.

Then came the news that the interior decorator responsible for fitting out Quags so splendidly has gone bust, claiming that Conran did not fully pay up. No business wrangle is ever so straightforward, however. Conran argues that the firm, Howard & Constable, incurred a default clause in the contract and is making a claim against its liquidators.
What is certain is that the firm, which also worked on the interior of Conran's last great restaurant, Le Pont de la Tour, will not be involved with the next one, a 228-seat traditional British chop house, scheduled to open in October.
Speculation is already mounting that even the mighty Conran organisation will not be able to attract another couple of hundred customers each mealtime to the south bank site of the Gastrodome complex, which already includes three perfectly good restaurants. Wander down there now, though, and you would not bet against it. With almost nowhere else to eat with a view of the river, the Butler's Wharf restaurants overflow with pleasure seekers, despite access being restricted by the closure of Tower Bridge.
While the bridge is closed, the Gastrodome has requisitioned a former police launch which operates at mealtimes, ferrying folk across the river from St Katharine's Pier for pounds 1 each way.
AS SECOND horn with the London Philharmonic, Gareth Mollison travels all over the world and often finds himself trying to order meals in a foreign language, which can be tricky when you are a fussy eater.
'I was in Tokyo,' Mr Mollison told the Gastropod, 'where, in the windows of restaurants, they frequently display plastic replicas of what's on the menu. When the dish is coated in batter, however, you often can't tell if it's supposed to be chicken or pork or fish. I had to keep leading Japanese waiters into the street to point at the window and play interminable games of charades.'
It was after one such meal, preceded by marathon gesticulation, that he had a brainwave. What he and non-linguists everywhere needed was a language- free menu decoder. So was born the Menu Master, a series of pictures of more than 100 ingredients, from eggs to oysters, plus methods of cooking and means of paying, that one can point to when trying to communicate with waiters.
An idea so simple that one wonders why no one thought of it before, Menu Master is marketed by Go Travel and costs pounds 2.95.
ANOTHER simple idea is My Cook Book, a collection of recipes, each of which is clearly explained with step-by-step instructions and illustrated with line drawings. It is published by the British Institute of Learning Disabilities at pounds 14.99. Although it is aimed at adults with learning difficulties, My Cook Book would also be of use to children and, indeed, anyone who has problems with the written word.
THOSE who have no problem with the written word and 'are keen on all that relates to the offices of the mouth' will be excited by the opening of a shop devoted entirely to books about food and drink. Visitors to Food For Thought in Cecil Court, off Charing Cross Road in London, can peruse such arcane volumes as An Account of the Culture and Use of the Mangel Wurzell, published in 1788. Those who cannot call at the shop in person can telephone the proprietor, Simon Gough (071-379 1993) and ask for a copy of his catalogue.
INDEPENDENCE Day is celebrated tomorrow in selected pubs around the country, including the Canterbury Arms in Canterbury, Kent, the Mason's Arms on Caldbeck Fell in Cumbria and the Vane Arms in Sodborough, Northamptonshire, with foaming pints of Anchor Liberty Ale.
San Francisco's Anchor brewery has established itself as the 'biggest micro brewery in America' and is best known over here for its steam beer, so-called after the secondary fermentation process that gives the beer its head, or after the steamy atmosphere of the old brewery, or after an old brewer called Pete Steam. Liberty Ale is darker and hoppier, with a huge bouquet. Look out for it on draught in pubs this weekend and on the shelves of Waitrose supermarkets.Reuse content

Please! We need your help!
Madison-Greene Humane Society has seen a huge increase in the amount of cats that have been surrendered to us.
Most of these cats coming to our shelter are in desperate need of medical attention.
Most arrive with respiratory infections but some are much worse. Dehydrated and undernourished are common in our new arrivals.
We have a wonderful adoption rate and these beautiful animals are finding their furrever homes but in the meantime it is the basics that we have to provide. Based on last years'financial, the animals in our care cost on average $400.00 per cat (some obviously more, some less).
We hope that you can continue to support us and help us raise the funds we so desperately need.
Our gift is hope….
Your gift is life….
The fate of abandoned and homeless cats in Greene County rests solely with Madison-Greene Humane Society because the County provides shelter for dogs only; we save the lives of about 300 cats yearly.
Our physical location is adjacent to the Greene County Animal Shelter on Jeri Allen Way in Ruckersville, across Route 33 from Stanardsville. We welcome visitors, particularly those interested in adopting one of our cats. Thank you for stopping by our Website; we invite you to take your time and get to know us better. You'll find lots of information about our services, open hours, directions, ways to get involved, and interesting, helpful information for both new and experienced pet owners. If we can be of any help, please call or send us an email. We welcome your help, donations, and feedback.

An Analysis of Public Expenditure on Education in Pakistan
Achieving economic growth is an important goal of any country. However, in recent years it has increasingly been realised that economic growth is a necessary but not a sufficient condition for human development. Pakistan provides a good example of a country which has historically enjoyed a respectable GDP growth rate and yet failed to translate this positive development into a satisfactory level of human development. Since its independence in 1947, Pakistan's development policies have focused primarily on realising high economic growth and only incidentally on the task of providing social necessities. Such a process has given rise to a structure of production and distribution which has been only indirectly responsive to social goals. However, there is now a growing realisation that we could have done much better had we stressed human resource investments relatively more.

Recipe: Persimmon and Chèvre Tart
A Redwood Hill Farm favorite
This recipe has been a favorite for as long as we can remember. We recently learned that it first appeared in print in SF Gate on January 2, 2003 in an article by Lynne Char Bennett. CLICK HERE for the link to the original recipe and article which includes wine pairings too.
There is an amazing persimmon tree on the farm, each year it gifts us such an abundance of fruit AND the fall color is spectacular (it's fall and I must get a picture soon and post it here). This tart has it all, great contrast of tart and sweet, the creamy chèvre just shines and it's beautiful to look at before slicing for your family or guests.
Baking with the seasonal harvest is such a great way to celebrate! One of our many Redwood Hill Farm customers sent this recipe to us, and after trying it, we knew we had to include it here. If you have a favorite recipe with any of our artisan goat milk products please send it along—we'd love to share it too.
Recipe: Baked Chèvre
Recipe: Grape Leaves Stuffed with Chèvre and Figs
Recipe: Composed Salad with Goat Cheese Chèvre or Crottin
This simple salad topped with warmed goat cheese is a popular menu item in France. Use either our fresh Chevre, California Crottin or Terra.
Recipe: Late Summer Salad Figs and Melon with Goat Cheese and Citrus Vinaigrette
Recipe: Potato Cheese Chilies
Featured in Sunset magazine, this delicious recipe stuffs Poblano chilies with cheesy mashed potatoes. Serve with home-made bell pepper salsa, or cut prep time by purchasing prepared salsa. Our thanks to Barbara Schack, sister of the late Steven Schack, former co-owner of Redwood Hill Farm, for contributing this, one of our favorite recipes.
Recipe: Portobello Dumplings with Goat Cheese Sauce
Recipe: Penne Pasta With Roasted Vegetables in a Redwood Hill Goat Cheese & Spinach Sauce
Recipe: Penne with Sun Dried Tomatoes, Shitake Mushrooms and Goat Cheese
Recipe: Goat Cheese-Stuffed Chicken Breast
We invite you to enjoy this main course stuffed chicken recipe from Livermore Valley's vineyard proprietor Carolyn Wente and Kimball Jones, the executive chef of the Vineyards Restaurant Wente founded nearly 14 years ago.
This recipe first appeared in "Sharing the Vineyard Table: A Celebration of Wine and Food From the Wente Vineyards Restaurant," by Carolyn Wente and Kimball Jones (Ten Speed Press)
Carolyn Wente suggests serving this with Sauvignon Blanc or a light Chardonnay.

|Project Title:
|Use of Internet Health Information By Cancer Patients
|Fiscal Year:
The explosion in the use of the Internet is transforming the access and delivery of health information. Consumers now have the same medical information that is currently available to providers and this availability has the potential to significantly change the relationship between patient and provider, alter the ways patients and providers communicate and help create a consumer base of power in health policy and decision making. The health consumer can now access electronic information at any time, from home or office, day or night, and id no longer restricted to traditional avenues of communications talking to health care professionals, friends or colleagues. Coupled with current political efforts to "wire: the nation it will be essential to examine the role computers will play in this century and the impact that this information delivery system will have on health education for consumers, their providers, and health care delivery systems. This research project is a cross-sectional study examining the relationship between the use of Internet health information by people newly diagnosed with cancer and patient task behavior and perceived self efficacy. Specific variables studied will include overall descriptive characteristics of those using Internet health information, perceived patient behavior in patient-provider communication and perceived self efficacy coping with disease. These variables will be compared among, 1. Direct users-people using the Internet themselves; 2. Indirect Users-people receiving Internet health information from friends or family members; and, 3. Non-Users- people not using the Internet health information. The study will utilize the Cancer Information Service (CIS) Atlantic Office, located at Fox Chase Cancer Center in Philadelphia, PA. Participants (N=600) will be recruited from persons calling the 1-800-4-Cancer telephone service who indicate that they, 1. are 18 years or older; 2. have been newly diagnosed with cancer; and, 3. have not begun cancer treatment. For those who consent to be in the study, follow up phone interviews will be made six to eight weeks after initial contact to assess impact of the use of Internet on perceived patient task behavior and self efficacy.

San Clemente teen dance offers chance to improve a child's life
If you knew that by attending a teen dance a week from Saturday, you could change a child's life somewhere in the world, would you go?
That's just part of the sales pitch for "Rock the Smile," a dance shaping up for 7 to 11 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 24, in the San Clemente Community Center. Sponsored by Dragon, the dance will feature a disc jockey, a 15-minute fashion show and an appearance by MTV's Chase Johnson, honorary chairman of the event. A short DVD about the cause will be shown.
Operation Smile, a new club at San Clemente High School, is hosting the dance to raise awareness about the plight of 200,000 children born each year with traumatizing facial deformities, many of them left untreated due to poverty. Doctors affiliated with www.operationsmile.org travel at their own expense to 51 countries, volunteering their time to treat children. Operation Smile provides lodging and meals, trains local people and opens local health clinics to promote self-sufficiency.
Dance tickets are $15. Call Sam or Frannie Coxe at 949-365-1739. The students are hoping for a turnout of more than 300.
Operation Smile's Audra Platz says a cleft lip can take as little as $240 and 45 minutes to repair. Some worse deformities can impair eating or speaking - even be life-threatening - and some kids are kept out of school.
Youths attending the Jan. 24 dance will be invited to sign a wristband used in post-op so they can eventually receive an e-mailed photo as evidence that "they are impacting a child's life," Platz said.
