CA Considers Law to Protect Band Names

Cheryl Miller

Every night in Las Vegas, Baby Boomers plunk down $47.30 each and file into the Sahara Hotel & Casino's Congo Room to revisit the sounds of their youth.

Philip H. Spector

Hardly a day goes by without major media attention to global warming and the need to develop and invest in sources of alternative energy. Legislation to encourage investment in renewable energy has bipartisan support. Tax legislation passed in 2005 and 2006 extended the renewable energy production tax credit and the energy investment tax credit to facilities placed in service before Jan. 1, 2009. Further extension and expansion of these credits is expected from the current Congress.
