All of these coaches are certified by the International Coach Federation. * Gina Columna founded G-Force International in 1990. The firm focuses on helping organizations and leaders move forward positively. * Harvey Smith (ACC, CPBA, CPVA) is a UNCC Certified Business Coach and President of the International Coach Federation, Charlotte Chapter. * Sherry Sutton is a Six Sigma-trained executive and certified coach with more than 25 years experience as an executive and manager. You've put in years of work for others or in a certain industry or at home. Maybe it's a new kind of work you want. Maybe an entrepreneurial spirit has captured you. Perhaps you want to go back to college or change the way you manage your life balance and personal sense of reward. These are big trends among "Boomers" in mid-life and as some look toward retirement. * Learn from the professional business coaches who have helped people in our area redefine the way they work, how they think about work and how they define their success. * Learn practical tips and strategies you can use immediately that can produce positive results in your business and personal life. * Bring your questions and your ideas. When: November 15, 2006, 6:30-8:30 p.m. Where: Central Campus, Information Technology Building, Room 1116 (off the lobby behind the stairs). Registration: $25.

Both Blackboard and Moodle are our most mission-critical applications. These systems are integrated with and dependent upon many other complex systems. These and other systems require hardware and software installations, vendor patches/fixes, and security upgrades on a regular basis. These updates must be performed when the vendor's technical support staff is available to us. We transparently conduct many system changes, keeping these systems operational where possible. Please find for your information, input, and review a document outlining the various procedures and upcoming planned maintenance windows. The particular dates are chosen to minimize the impact the outage would have on classes based upon the published academic calendar. The online learning environment is produced and delivered through a partnership between ITS and ID (Instructional Development). The shared support responsibilities of ITS and ID are described at http://www.cpcc.edu/itservices/Blackboard/supportstructure.htm and the service level agreement is available at http://www.cpcc.edu/itservices/Blackboard/ServiceLevelAgreement.htm.

Women between age 20 and 39 should have a clinical breast exam performed by a health-care professional at least every three years; women 40 years of age or older with no significant breast problems, should have annual exams and screening mammograms. Charlotte Radiology will have appointments available on the following dates and times: Monday-Friday December 4-8, 2006 7:45 a.m.-4:15 p.m Please call 704.367.2232 or toll free 877.362.2232 to make your appointment!
