Wookiee Life Day
Posted By Dustin on November 12, 2010
Spokane, WA, November 12, 2010: On November 17, 1978 The Star Wars Holiday Special aired for one time only on CBS in the United States. Featuring an odd story about Chewbacca reuniting with his family to celebrate the Wookiee holiday of Life Day, it has gone on to live in infamy among Star Wars fans. The special includes appearances and strange musical performances from the cast of the original Star Wars movie, as well as Bea Arthur, Art Carney, Harvey Korman, Diahann Carroll, and Jefferson Starship. To no ones surprise The Star Wars Holiday Special is renowned for its overwhelmingly negative reception. Lucasfilm has never released the Holiday Special to the public after its initial broadcast, but it has lived on through video recordings and sharing among friends.
The first annual Wookiee Life Day was held on November 17, 2009. The original celebration was held at the Baby Bar in Spokane, WA where a collection of geeks, hipsters, and Stormtroopers united to watch The Star Wars Holiday Special on the 31st anniversary of its lone broadcast. Those in attendance donned crimson colored Snuggies to recreate the look of the ceremonial Wookiee Life Day robes as seen in the Holiday Special. Before the celebration, word of the ironic new Holiday quickly spread across the Internet and articles were featured on Snuggie Sightings, TheForce.net, and even StarWars.com. This led to people holding their own Wookiee Life Day celebrations all around the world!
For the 2nd Annual Wookiee Life Day on November 17, 2010 fans of The Star Wars Holiday Special are encouraged to host their own celebrations wherever they choose. From local cantinas, to coffee houses, to tiny 1-bedroom apartments � anywhere works! All you need is a way to watch The Star Wars Holiday Special and some Crimson Snuggies (or other brands/colors of sleeved blankets, backwards bathrobes). Everyone who participates is encouraged to send in pictures of their festivities to Wookiee Life Day via facebook, twitter, tumblr, etc.
Wookiee Life Day started as an excuse for some people to get silly at a bar, but also to create more public awareness of the anomaly that is The Star Wars Holiday Special. The ultimate goal of Wookiee Life Day is to show Lucasfilm that there is indeed much fan interest in their oddball property � and that it demands an official release on DVD and Blu-ray! Until then, and after, fans around the world will be celebrating Wookiee Life Day every November 17th.
11/17/78 Never Forget
�If I had the time and a sledgehammer, I would track down every copy of that show and smash it.� - George Lucas

ABC's "B---- in Apt. 23"
OMM must switch gears to another ABC program "Don't Trust the
B---- in Apartment 23." ABC's newest show is even worse than we
anticipated, even outside the awful title it airs on Wednesday at
9:30 p.m. /8:30 Central with a TV-14 DSL rating.
To give a rundown of the thirty-minute program:
• 7 scenes/segments containing visual depictions
of sexual behavior or activity
• 12 scenes/segments containing discussions or
dialogue about sexual behavior or activity
• 15 instances of foul language
• The show opens with June walking in on her
fiancé, Steven, having sexual intercourse with her new roommate
• June catches male friend masturbating
• Nudity- breasts and genitals blurred twice
during program
A few quotes from the show:
• June: "I wrote a rap at Christian camp. It was
called, Jesus is right, word!"
• Chloe: "We weren't really compatible
genitally. Imagine trying to fit a cucumber into a coin
• Chloe: "Oh, hey roomie! You're just in time
for a little four-way action."
The program is primarily sponsored by movie previews and ABC
Please send ABC and parent company Disney an email letter
expressing your concern for the inappropriate content in their
newest program "Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment

The coolest place on the internet, according to this tagline.Ask • Archive • FAQ
"It's come to my attention that some of you have been…persuaded, perhaps, to vote for Summer Kennedy." After his opponent recruited fellow Breaking Bad cast member Giancarlo Esposito for an endorsement video, Crossroads School for Arts & Sciences student Maxwell Ulin contacted Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul in hopes of locking up their support. Even if you don't attend Crossroads, something tells us that this video will have you trying to figure out how you, too, can vote for Maxwell. (thanks Hypervocal) source

John Curley says it's no wonder Hostess has failed
on November 16, 2012 @ 10:58 am (Updated: 11:15 am - 11/16/12 )About 250 people in Washington are out of job Friday after Hostess decided to close its doors.
Many of the employees worked at the plant in South Lake Union and the remaining were at plants in Kent and in Pierce County.
The company had already filed for bankruptcy this year, but it was trying to stay afloat. It couldn't survive a strike by 30-percent of its work force over a pay cut.
More than 18,000 people nationwide are now out of work.
"Hopefully somebody else will come in and start the bakery up and hire the experienced workers," said David Douglas, a Hostess worker in St. Louis.
John Curley said on Seattle's Morning News he's not surprised Hostess is calling it quits.
"People stopped eating white bread. People stopped eating Twinkies," said Curley, who said Wonder Bread became irrelevant as soon as we had cheap options for wheat, multi-grain, etc.
Not only that, but Curley is guessing fewer people bring their old, metal lunch boxes to work, which means they're not carrying around a packaged Ding Dong or Ho-Ho.
KIRO Radio reporter Chris Sullivan expects we can blame some of the sales loss to healthier options in vending machines, both at work and in schools.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm going to miss Wonder Bread. Every so often a good peanut butter and jelly sandwich on Wonder Bread is awesome."
Curley is going to miss Ding Dongs the most. Ursula Twinkies, and Sullivan the Ho-Ho.

461st Air Control Wing
This article includes a list of references, related reading or external links, but its sources remain unclear because it lacks inline citations. (January 2013) |

The 461st Air Control Wing (461 ACW) is a joint Air Force/Army unit flying the E-8 J-STARS aircraft. The 461 ACW is assigned to the Air Combat Command (ACC), Ninth Air Force, and is stationed at Robins Air Force Base, Georgia. It was activated on 1 Oct 2011.
Originally activated as a tactical bomber wing by Tactical Air Command (TAC) in the 1950s, the wing was organized as a strategic wing and organized by Strategic Air Command (SAC) at Amarillo AFB, Texas in 1963. The wing flew Boeing B-52 Stratofortress heavy strategic bombers and Boeing KC-135 Stratotanker heavy air refueling aircraft. It deployed aircraft and crews to Andersen AFB, Guam for combat operations in Southeast Asia. The wing was inactivated in March 1968 with the closure of Amarillo AFB.
The 461st ACW is the only active duty Air Force wing operating the E-8C Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System (Joint STARS), an advanced ground surveillance and battle management system. Joint STARS detects, locates, classifies, tracks and targets ground movements on the battlefield, communicating real-time information through secure data links with U.S. Forces command posts.
Tactical Air Command[edit]
The unit was established as the 461st Bombardment Wing, Light under the Tactical Air Command Ninth Air Force on 11 December 1953. Unit was formed at Hill AFB, Utah and initially equipped with World War II-era B-26B Invader tactical light bombers brought out of storage depots in the southwest. The mission of the 461st Bomb Wing was to provide training in air support of ground forces and air interdiction from lessons learned during the Korean War. Modifications made to the aircraft were made by depot personnel at Hill as a result of combat in Korea meant that the Invader operated at considerably higher weights and with greater loads than had been achieved in World War II.
The Invader, however, was used as a transitory aircraft until the unit could receive the jet-powered Martin B-57 Canberra, which was still under development by Air Materiel Command. On 1 October 1955 the wing was reassigned to its permanent base at Blytheville AFB, Arkansas. It was redesignated as the 461st Bombardment wing, Tactical, and began receiving production B-57B Canberras. However, a number of B-57Bs were lost in accidents, particularly during high-speed, low-level operations when aircraft suddenly and unexplainably dove into the ground. As these accidents persisted, all tactically-assigned B-57Bs were grounded in May 1956 for a period of four months while the problem was investigated. The fault was eventually traced to a faulty tailplane actuator which set the trim incorrectly. The installation of a new actuator switch cured the problem.
The USAF was not very happy with the B-57B as it was initially produced. It was still deemed to be inadequate to meet the night intruder and close support role for which it had originally been designed. The target acquisition system was inadequate, the navigational range was too short, and the radio navigation could not recover the aircraft after strikes. The armament was inadequate—the gun-bomb-rocket sight, the gun charging systems, and the external stores release mechanisms were all unreliable.
After three years of service with the B-57s in tactical bomb groups, the decision was made to phase out the B-57 in favor of supersonic aircraft. The wing turned in its aircraft to TAC for disposition and the wing inactivated on 1 April 1958.
Strategic Air Command[edit]
On 5 January 1959, SAC established the 4128th Strategic Wing at Amarillo AFB, Texas and assigned it to the 822d Air Division as part of SAC's plan to disperse its Boeing B-52 Stratofortress heavy bombers over a larger number of bases, thus making it more difficult for the Soviet Union to knock out the entire fleet with a surprise first strike. The wing initially comprised three maintenance squadrons and a squadron to provide security for special weapons. In July, the 58th Aviation Depot Squadron was activated to oversee the wing's special weapons and the wing was transferred to the 810th Air Division.
The wing became operational on 1 February 1960 when the 718th Bombardment Squadron (BS), consisting of 15 B-52s moved to Amarillo from Ellsworth AFB, South Dakota where it had been one of the three squadrons of the 28th Bombardment Wing. Half of the wing's aircraft were maintained on fifteen minute alert, fully fueled, armed, and ready for combat. The 4128th (and later the 461st) continued to maintain an alert commitment until inactivated. However, SAC Strategic Wings could not carry a permanent history or lineage[1] and SAC looked for a way to make its Strategic Wings permanent.
In 1962, in order to perpetuate the lineage of many currently inactive bombardment units with illustrious World War II records, Headquarters SAC received authority from Headquarters USAF to discontinue its Major Command controlled (MAJCON) strategic wings that were equipped with combat aircraft and to activate Air Force controlled (AFCON) units, most of which were inactive at the time which could carry a lineage and history.[2] As a result the 4128th SW was replaced by reactivated 461st Bombardment Wing, Heavy (461st BW), which assumed its mission, personnel, and equipment on 1 February 1963.[3][4]
In the same way the 764th Bombardment Squadron, one of the unit's World War II historical bomb squadrons, replaced the 718th BS. Under the Dual Deputate organization,[5] all flying and maintenance squadrons were directly assigned to the wing, so no operational group element was activated. The 58th Munitions Maintenance Squadron was reassigned to the 461st, while The 4039th's other maintenance and security squadrons were replaced by ones with the 461st numerical designation of the new wing. Each of the new units assumed the personnel, equipment, and mission of its predecessor.
In April 1963, the wing gained an air refueling capability for its bombers when the 909th Air Refueling Squadron was activated with KC-135 tankers. The 909th remained with the wing until June 1966, when it moved to March AFB, California and was reassigned.[6] The wing trained with B-52s maintained heavy bombardment proficiency and participated in numerous operational readiness inspections and actual and simulated exercises. It deployed B-52 aircraft and crews to Andersen AFB, Guam from 18 January to 4 July 1967 for combat operations in Southeast Asia, however its headquarters remained at Amarillo where it served as a deterrent force and also supported SAC's global air refueling mission.
By 1968, Intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM) had been deployed and become operational as part of the United States' strategic triad, and the need for B-52s had been reduced. In addition, funds were also needed to cover the costs of combat operations in Indochina. The 461st Bombardment Wing was inactivated on 25 March 1968 and its aircraft were reassigned to other SAC units. As part of the inactivation, Amarillo AFB was closed.
Air Combat Command[edit]
The wing was redesignated as the 461st Air Control Wing and activated in October 2011 when the regular Air Force assumed associate responsibility to the 116th Air Control Wing, Georgia Air National Guard for the JSTARS mission.

ZIA Men HydraShield Shave Cream -- 5 fl oz
keep skin smooth and never feels dry
good to use even if you don't use aftershave, makes skin easy to shave, but it finish very fast.
March 8, 2013
It is a good product. The reality is there is a learning curve. First the face must be really wet and then use just a tiny amount of this, mix it in the hand with a nice bit of hot water and you get a really smooth, slick shaving surface. Frankly if you use more than a small amount and/or not enough water it is too tacky/sticky. I would like a little gentle scent but this is unscented. When used correctly and with the after shave, I have had no episodes of razor burn!
November 1, 2011
Excellent product--very gentle, does a great job!

Zia Hydrashield Shave Cream
This is, without one doubt, the best shave cream I have used. I also believe my blades last longer because the shaving is so much smoother and faster, for real! I have tried many. While it seemed at first this is much more expensive than regular shave creams, it does not take much and goes a long way.

NEW ALBANY, IN (WAVE) - Several residents in New Albany traded in their guns for cash.
On Friday, December 28, the anonymous gun buyback program was held in New Albany leaving police with 249 guns. Now, the police department has begun the process of going through everything they've collected."Our goal and objective in this thing was to get them out of the homes and possibly off the streets," said New Albany Major Keith Whitlow. "Any of those guns could have been stolen at some point so, it can't hurt."The New Albany gun buyback program brought in 100 handguns, two assault type weapons, and a lot of rifles and shotguns. Now, those guns are at the New Albany Police Department."A lot of these handguns, if not all of these handguns are pretty typical of what street officers both here and even in Kentucky will encounter," said Whitlow.Major Whitlow says officers are cataloging the guns with a serial number and will run them through the National Crime Information Center database to see if any of the guns are stolen or wanted in connection with a crime. If they come back clean, the guns will be destroyed."Shredding them or cutting them up with a torch we haven't come up with a method we are going to use yet," said Whitlow. "We don't have a lot of storage at the police department anyway's the quicker we can get them processed get them out of here the better off we are gonna be."The New Albany Police department had a budget of $50,000 for their gun buyback program and the money was gone after two hours. Major Whitlow says if any money is re cooped from the scrap metal from the guns, they will likely throw it back into a fund for a future gun buyback program if they have one.

[JURIST] One in 31 US adults are on probation, in prison, or on parole, according to a report [text; press release] released Monday by the Pew Center on the States [advocacy website]. The report found that men are five times more likely than women to be under correctional control, although the number of women continues to grow. Black adults are four times more likely than white adults to be under correctional supervision. These correctional controls cost an escalating $68 billion per year, without an apparent change in recidivism rates. The report states:
With the costs of imprisonment rising and the benefits falling, our ability to keep communities safe depends more than ever upon our ability to better manage the 5 million offenders on probation and parole. The current budget crisis presents states with an important, perhaps unprecedented opportunity to do so. Rather than trying to weather the economic storm with short-term cost saving measures, policy leaders should see this as a chance to retool their sentencing and corrections systems.

Health Care Reform: Patient Protection, Affordable Care Act and Implications for Health Care ProvidersThings we are thinking about now |
On March 23, 2010, President Obama signed into law the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA).On March 30, 2010, he signed into law the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, which made a number of significant changes to the PPACA.
These reforms represent one of the most strategically disruptive events for US Health Care Providers in the last century. Only a few other events come close to matching the potential impact of this package of reforms. These include the Hill Burton Act in 1946 which stimulated the growth and expansion of hospitals across the country, the passage of Medicare and Medicaid in 1965, and the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 which introduced prospective reimbursement.
The 2010 health care reforms represent a 'point of inflection' for providers. Opportunities and challenges will come quickly and should be managed in real-time. In our view, providers should begin contemplating a number of key questions immediately:
- Increased Coverage (and Revenues)
Have you estimated the potential impact of increased coverage and associated revenues on your profit margins and bad debt? Do you have the operational capacity to respond to pent-up demand from the newly-insured?
- Cost Structure
Can you dramatically change your cost structure to reduce your operating costs? Or, framed another way, "If reimbursement rates are dramatically reduced, even to the level of Medicare rates for example, could your organization sustain positive margins and replenish capital over the medium to long-term?"
- Physician Relationships
Are your physician relationships strong and diverse enough to allow for the types of integration and alignment which will be required to support success under episodic payment systems like Accountable Care Organizations or medical home models?
- Quality
If clinical quality and effectiveness were to become the primary measures by which reimbursement levels were established and differentiated among Providers, is it likely your organization would see its revenue grow?
- Access to Capital
Does your organization have sufficient capital to support the investments which will be required to succeed in a post-reform environment (e.g., health information technology, business intelligence, physician alignment, etc)?
- Market Strategy
If your local market were to consolidate and your largest competitors were to align or disrupt your key physician relationships, does your organization have a defined response strategy?
Negative answers to even one of these significant questions could compromise a provider's future viability and/or market position. The next 12-18 months will be critical. Providers who are able to quickly reorient their strategy and underlying operations to align with the incentives and 'new normal' of the post-reform marketplace, have the opportunity to leap-frog their competitors and assume a stronger position going forward.

The word distressed can be used to describe more than just the strategy many hedge funds are pursuing these days. For most fund managers, the adjective could also describe recent performance. In the case of the MatlinPatterson Distressed Opportunities Fund, however, results are actually proving a source of excitement.
In May, the $300 million fund, which focuses on bank debt, credit, equities and credit default swaps, returned 10.84%,...

NORMAN — Oklahoma entered this season believing quarterback play to be its strength. After Saturday's loss to Kansas State and the two games leading up to it, "strength" isn't one of the many adjectives used to describe Landry Jones' play.
The senior quarterback completed 28 of 43 attempts for 298 yards against the Wildcats. He threw one touchdown pass with four minutes to go. However, the dominant memories from the 24-19 loss were the errant passes that missed wide-open receivers, or the off-balance heave Kansas State safety Tyler Zimmerman intercepted to set up a go-ahead touchdown late in the third quarter or the fumble that gave the Wildcats their first touchdown.
Jones didn't hide from his mistakes.
"It's frustrating," he said. "We have a lot of good players on this offense — a lot of good backs, a lot of good offensive linemen, good receivers. We've got a lot of skill. But it seems like we can't put it together.
"We're playing a lot of dumb football — me especially. There were a lot of plays out there I needed to make for us to be successful."
But it would be a misconception to believe Jones started struggling on Saturday. His play has been on a downward trajectory since November of last season. It started when then-star receiver Ryan Broyles suffered a season-ending knee injury.
In the seven games since, Jones has a pass efficiency rating of 120.01. That rating is 12 points below the NCAA average for all FBS quarterbacks in 2011 and 10 points lower than Jones' rating at the end of his redshirt freshman season in 2009 (130.83). OU went 8-5 that year. Jones became the starter after a shoulder injury to Sam Bradford and he led an injury-riddled offense through a rebuilding year.
Jones reaped the rewards from it in 2010. His passer rating jumped to 146.31 in his sophomore season as he helped lead OU to a Big 12 Championship.
It's been a slow regression since.
His rating was 141.56 last season. Through three games this season, it's 135.84. But over the last seven games Jones has thrown 276 passes, completed 169 of them for 1,886 yards. He's thrown six touchdown passes, but eight very costly interceptions, including another Saturday night.
OU coach Bob Stoops was diplomatic when asked about Jones' play.
"I don't think it's fair to say 'Landry Jones.' I think it's fair to say the guys around him, also were inconsistent," Stoops said. "But again, some of the plays that stick out to everybody, that weren't very good, when you're turning the football over it's going to kill you."
Jones isn't very good, and it was evident from OU's opening series against the Wildcats. He completed his first six passes. None of them were spectacular. They were the simple short throws that have been a staple of the Sooners' offense since 2008.
Then Jones missed tight end Brannon Green for what should have been a wide open 9-yard touchdown to complete the opening drive. The play-action pass to the tight end has been a primary play in OU's red zone offense for years. Green was all alone. Jones just threw it behind him.
The drive stalled, OU settled for a field goal and Jones never seemed to recover. He wandered into the arms of Kansas State's Jesse Tuggle early in the second quarter and that resulted in Jarell Childs' fumble recovery in the end zone.
Offensive coordinator Josh Heupel, who is three games into his second full season as the play caller, wouldn't put all the blame on Jones. There was enough of it to go around. Backup quarterback Blake Bell fumbled away a potential touchdown in the second quarter. The Sooners rushed for a season low 88 yards.
"We are not where we need to be by any stretch of the imagination and anywhere where we're capable of being. Things have got to change," Heupel said. "We have got to come back (today) and need to refocus."
One less mistake, and OU might have escaped with a victory. Jones' struggles, however, didn't suddenly crop up on Saturday. They've been around for a while.
"He's our leader. I have full faith, trust and confidence in him. So I'm not going to say anything to him," center Gabe Ikard said. "I know he's going to bounce back well; come back, keep leading this team in practice and on the field."

A man who last year jumped from a second-story building in a failed attempt to escape Federal Way police was sentenced Friday to 12 years in federal prison.
Jeffrey A. Dorsey, 37, was wanted for passing counterfeit money when he ran from police in January 2012, the U.S. Attorney's Office in Seattle said.
He was arrested and eventually convicted of possession of a stolen gun, counterfeiting, using counterfeit money and interstate transportation of a stolen vehicle.
Investigators said he stole a car, a gun, ammunition and a GPS unit in his native Colorado before coming to Washington and using counterfeit money to buy another car in Federal Way. The seller called police when he discovered the money Dorsey paid with was counterfeit.
Police tracked Dorsey near a motel on Pacific Highway South, and he ran. They eventually caught him and found the stolen gun and more than $5,000 in counterfeit bills, federal prosecutors said.

Although feather/down filled decorator cushions seem quite popular, I cannot buy them because of dh's allergy to feathers. I need sources for quality cushion inserts for use with cushion covers I'll be making myself. I've tried some I found at the fabric store, which I really didn't like. The 'fabric' is like non-woven interfacing, which I don't care for, and they seemed to flatten quickly. I had success at Sears, which sells a few in their Sears-O-Pedic line that appear well made with 100% cotton fabric. I just got them recently so I don't know how well the 'loft' holds up yet. I saw a few synthetic-fill ones on the Pottery Barn website with cotton covers too-has anyone tried them? I'd like to try out a few brands, so please let me know of others you've tried.
I assume you mean pillows, or throw pillows?Why don't you try your local custom Upholstery shop. They usually have a few choices. We use a product we call Uni-down, it's a synthetic fill that we cover with a 100% cotton cover. It holds up well. Understand that you will never duplicate a down feel 100% and no product on the market will stand the test of time as a down feather mix.
Hmm, I'm not sure exactly what most of my pillows are stuffed with.
The Pottery Barn ones have reviews you might be interested in reading: http://reviews.potterybarn.com/9076/down-synthetic-bedding-pillow-insert...
West Elm also has some but I haven't personally tried them: (click here)
Anyone else have experience with synthetic pillow inserts?

Level of Importance:Recommended
Dell recommends applying this update during your next scheduled update cycle. The update contains feature enhancements or changes that will help keep your system software current and compatible with other system modules (firmware, BIOS, drivers and software).
Systems PowerEdge M1000E | Operating Systems Not Applicable |
Applies to
- Dell Device
Fixes & Enhancements
- Support for optional upgrade FlexAddress feature.
The FlexAddress feature is an optional upgrade that allows the chassis to assign WWN/MAC (World Wide Name/Media Access Control) addresses to Fibre Channel and Ethernet devices. Chassis-assigned WWN/MAC addresses are globally unique, and specific to a server slot within a given chassis. This feature allows the chassis to assign a WWN/MAC address (Chassis Assigned IDs) that stays with a particular slot in the chassis. If a server is replaced, the FlexAddress for the slot remains the same for that given server slot. If the server is inserted into a new slot or chassis, the server-assigned WWN/MAC is used unless the FlexAddress feature is enabled for the new slot. If you remove the server, it will revert to the server-assigned address.
- CMC will block any user attempt to upload a non-Web server certificate. A user error will be returned.
- If a user has uploaded a non-Web server certificate using CMC firmware version 1.01, after a firmware install and reboot of 1.10, the non-Web server certificate will be removed.

Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:When last heard from, Captain Heris Serrano, cashiered Captain of the Fleet, now captain of a rich lady's yacht, and her employer, Lady Cecelia, had just triumphed over a heinous cabal, a "Hunting Club" that used human beings as prey. Much to her horror, one of the hunters had been none other than Prince Gerel, first in line to the throne. He had been told the nature of his prey only at the last minute, and was assured that they were criminal volunteers who would get off scot-free if only they could avoid the hunters for a mere three days. While deeply uneasy about the morality of the whole venture, and unwilling to indulge in any "hunting" himself, the Prince had been persuaded of the legitimacy of the "club's" activities.
How could he have been so stupid??
Having volunteered herself and her yacht to spirit the Prince home so as to avoid a Royal Scandal, that indeed is the question that Lady Cecelia-of the Blood Royal herself-wants answered; she remembers her nephew the Heir Apparent as a rather bright young lad.

Consent/Assent for Children and Youth
Obtaining parental consent is only part of the consent process when recruiting children or youth as research participants. The second component of the informed consent procedure for children and youth is obtaining assent.
Obtaining assent from children or youth as research participants means that the investigator is obtaining the agreement of the child to participate in the research. Additionally, because children cannot legally give consent on their own behalf, consent of their parent(s) or a legal guardian also is required before children and youth can participate in research projects. Note: in the state of Nebraska consent and assent must be obtained for all subjects age 18 and younger.
Obtaining Parental Consent
Follow these guidelines for obtaining parental consent for children as research subjects.
See the Characteristics of Parental Consent and the Sample Parental Consent Form for Non-Therapeutic Research.
Procedure for Obtaining and Documenting Assent
The means of obtaining assent from children must be appropriate for the age ranges and levels of mental development of the proposed subjects. The National Institutes of Health proposes the following guidelines:
Although age is used as the primary criteria to determine the appropriate procedure for obtaining assent, factors such as literacy and mental development must be considered. Because a single procedure for obtaining assent may not be appropriate for all potential subjects, investigators should be prepared to use different approaches with different participants.
The primary goal of assent is that the participant is able to understand the explanation of the study as presented. The requirement for a witness to document verbal assent procedures depends on the complexity of the research and the risks to the potential subjects.
A parent or guardian may not be the witness for a child's verbal assent document. A child's deliberate objection should be regarded as a veto of their involvement in the research.
Review the Characteristics for Obtaining Child/Youth Assent and the Consent/Assent Checklist before submitting protocol to the IRB.

Wine lovers may argue over Bordeaux vs. Burgundy, Napa vs. Sonoma, or even cabernet sauvignon vs. merlot. But when it comes to Champagne, there is no argument. Almost everyone, it seems, loves Champagne.
Genuine Champagne comes only from the strictly defined Champagne region, 90 miles northeast of Paris. Champagne producers wage an unrelenting war against any and all winemakers outside their region who try to usurp the Champagne name. Grapes have been grown and wine produced there for 2,000 years, but what we think of as Champagne can be traced only as far back as the 17th century and the development of the cork, which captured fermentation gases.
Champagne's popularity is largely based on its reputation as a luxury product. Champagne houses like Moët & Chandon and Veuve Clicquot vie to publicize their association with high society and exclusive sports like polo and yachting. One house, Pol Roger, even produced a special bottle size, the imperial pint, exclusively for Winston Churchill, who drank Champagne for breakfast and responded by naming his favorite horse Pol Roger.
The Champagne producers created and maintain that luxury image even though their wine is not necessarily expensive. Krug Champagne may sell for $250 a bottle but dozens of excellent Champagnes retail for under $35, appreciably less than a moderately priced Bordeaux or Napa Valley cabernet.
Nor is Champagne in any way exclusive. Upward of 300 million bottles of genuine Champagne are produced annually, and the industry is pressing the French government to expand the 71,000-acre Champagne region to meet the swelling demand from newly affluent markets in Eastern Europe and Asia.
While the new markets, Russia in particular, have served to keep Champagne prices higher than they might otherwise be, the growing demand has led to the addition of perhaps hundreds of new brands to wine shops' Champagne shelves.
Major names dominate: the LVMH group, which includes Moët & Chandon, Mercier, Ruinart and Veuve Clicquot; Lanson International, which includes Besserat de Bellefon and dozens of smaller labels; Vranken Monopole, Laurent-Perrier and Allied Domecq (owner of Mumm and Perrier Jouet), which together account for well over a third of all Champagne production. But many unfamiliar names, small producers that used to sell their wine to the major houses or confined themselves to France, now are going directly to the retail market. Their products usually sell for a few dollars less, and a lot of their Champagne is good.
According to Sotheby's Wine Encyclopedia, there are 19,000 grape growers in Champagne , of whom about 5,000 sell Champagne under their own name. There are, the encyclopedia claims, more than 12,500 Champagne brands.
Champagne should be served quite cold, preferably between 38 and 50 degrees Fahrenheit. Cold dulls flavor, so a cheaper bottle can be served colder than a more complex wine. The best Champagnes, including vintage bottles and blanc de blancs — which is made entirely from white chardonnay grapes — should never be served at less than 45 degrees Fahrenheit. A good Champagne should not be chilled for more than two hours before serving; longer chilling can dull flavor and bouquet.
The ideal Champagne glass is the tall, slender flute. Its relatively small surface permits only a few bubbles at a time to escape. It also concentrates the wine's bouquet. So pour a glass — and cheers!
