Maine is awash in high-profile, accomplished women. We have female leaders in Congress, the U.S. Senate, executive suites in public companies and board rooms, but also manufacturing sites, healthcare companies and in the farm-to-table supply chain. Yet the journey continues. Now in its sixth year, the Mainebiz Women to Watch award started in response to the lack of women on the cover of our own publication, as well as to growing evidence that women were, in fact, assuming more control of executive suites and Senate chambers and small businesses.

If you haven't heard the news yet about AM radio, you might never — at least not in your car.
Many automotive manufacturers have stopped supplying vehicles with the technology, claiming it interferes with electronics and that customers are tuning in less anyway.
But U.S. Sens. Susan Collins, R-Maine, and Angus King, I-Maine, say AM radio is essential, especially in rural regions. The lawmakers cite a National Association of Farm Broadcasters survey that found two-thirds of farmers listen to AM for weather forecasts and other information needed for business.
The association says AM radio reaches an estimated 82 million listeners monthly through more than 4,400 stations across the U.S.
Collins and King have signed onto legislation that would ensure manufacturers continue to provide AM reception in every new car and truck, at no charge.
