March 12, 2013: This photo shows the air traffic control tower at
Chicago's Midway International Airport.APWASHINGTON Transportation Secretary
Ray LaHood has assured lawmakers the Obama administration will prevent the
closure of 149 small airport towers as well as end furloughs of
air traffic controllers nationwide as a result of legislation passed by
Congress, according to officials involved in negotiations on the bill.The
disclosure came as senators sought signatures on a letter to LaHood saying
that that their support of the legislation "was based on the understanding
that the contract towers would be fully funded." In all, 149 towers
are ticketed for possible closure beginning June 15 as the FAA carries
out its share of the $85 billion in across-the-board budget cuts that
took effect in March at numerous federal agencies.The letter said the towers,
which are staffed by employees under contract to the FAA, are a
"vital public safety and economic development asset for dozens of communities
- many of them rural - in every corner of the country."
It was circulated by Sens. Jerry Moran, R-Kan., and Richard Blumenthal,
D-Conn.The developments coincided with congressional passage during the
day of a follow-up bill that fixed a stenographic error in legislation
that cleared late last week. It was designed to give LaHood flexibility
to shift up to $253 million among various accounts to "prevent reduced
operations and staffing of the FAA," b

raises questions about how the GRAS concept is working and is it
working adequately," Taylor said of the gum and other caffeine-added products.As
food companies have created more new ingredients to add health benefits,
improve taste or help food stay fresh, there are at least 4,650
of these "generally recognized as safe" ingredients, according to the nonpartisan
Pew Charitable Trusts. The bulk of them, at least 3,000, were determined
GRAS by companies and trade associations.Caffeine is not a new ingredient,
but Taylor says the FDA is concerned about all of the new
ways it is being delivered to consumers. He said the agency will
look at the potential impact these "new and easy sources" of caffeine
will have on children's health and will take action if necessary. He
said that he and other FDA officials have held meetings with some
of the large food companies that have ventured into caffeinated products,
including Mars Inc., of which Wrigley is a subsidiary.Wrigley and other
companies adding caffeine to their products have labeled them as for adult
use only. A spokeswoman for Wrigley, Denise M. Young, said the gum
is for "adults who are looking for foods with caffeine for energy"
and each piece contains about 40 milligrams, or the equivalent amount found
in half a cup of coffee. She said the company will work
with FDA."Millions of Americans consume caffeine responsibly and in moderation
