WASHINGTON, D.C. (April 16, 2007) -- The following statement was issued today by Biotechnology Industry Organization (BIO) President and CEO Jim Greenwood regarding the recent conclusion of the U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement negotiations:
"BIO applauds Ambassador Susan Schwab and the staff at the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) for their hard work in reaching a successful conclusion of the U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement (FTA) negotiations. By recognizing the value of innovative, patented new medicines and raising the standards of protection for intellectual property rights, the FTA will go a long way in providing additional market access opportunities in Korea for U.S. biotechnology companies.
"BIO also congratulates Chief Agricultural Negotiator Richard Crowder and his staff for negotiating a separate understanding on several agricultural biotechnology issues. With BIO's support, the United States worked with the Republic of Korea to address a number of issues over the past year focused on ensuring that Korea's agricultural biotechnology regulations are science-based, and that trade of biotech-derived crops, foods, and feeds continues without disruption. With over one billion dollars in U.S. exports that may be produced from agricultural biotechnology products, achieving a constructive dialogue on these matters is a significant achievement.
"Korea has made important new commitments in the area of biopharmaceuticals that should provide the Korean people greater access to cutting-edge, life-saving new medicines. While it is disappointing that the Korean Government refused to address details relating to Korea's new drug pricing and reimbursement regulations, I am pleased that they have committed to adequately recognize the value of patented medicines and have agreed to an independent review body to review pricing and reimbursement decisions. Coupled with provisions increasing transparency, allowing greater dissemination of product-specific information over the Internet, and strengthening intellectual property rights, this package of commitments will help level the playing field for U.S. biotech companies in Korea.
"It is imperative that the U.S. Government closely monitor the implementation of Korea's FTA commitments regarding agricultural biotechnology and biopharmaceuticals. In particular, I urge the U.S. Government to work with Korea to ensure that Korea's new government reimbursement system for medicines does not run counter to the important goal of rewarding innovation and providing greater access to effective new medicines for the Korean people."

The Master of Education in Elementary Education program is designed for individuals interested in the education of children in elementary or middle school who are seeking initial teacher licensure. The format and courses of this regionally accredited and Arizona-approved program are tailored to meet the needs of the adult learner and to maximize the content knowledge that the teacher candidate will possess upon graduation. Graduates of the master's in elementary education program are prepared to become informed educators in public and private schools and other settings requiring a teaching license.
In this program, students study topics such as: Philosophical and social issues in education; classroom engagement and management; educating learners with diverse needs; English as a second language; structured English immersion; prescriptive reading and assessment; literacy curriculum, assessment and methods; math curriculum, assessment and methods; and social studies curriculum, assessment and methods. All courses are directly aligned with professional teaching standards and the associated national content standards.
Students must have access to a grade 1-8 classroom to complete assignments within many of the courses which guide students through more than 100 hours of observational and practice-based experiences. The final semester of the master's in elementary education program includes a full-time, 16-week student teaching component. Teacher candidates are responsible for contacting their state department of education for licensure requirements and program approval.

We all run across the pill bug in our gardens. At the first sign of danger, the tiny paranoid crustacean suddenly turns into a ball -- in hopes danger will have passed when he unrolls.
That roly-poly bug can serve as a fair symbol of present-day U.S. foreign policy, especially in our understandable weariness over Iraq, Afghanistan and the current scandals that are overwhelming the Obama administration.
On Aug. 4, U.S. embassies across the Middle East simply closed based on intelligence reports of planned al-Qaeda violence. The shutdown of 21 diplomatic facilities was the most extensive in recent American history.
Yet we still have over a month to go before the 12th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks, an iconic date for radical Islamists.
Such preemptive measures are no doubt sober and judicious. Yet if we shut down our entire Middle East public profile on the threat of terrorism, what will we do when more anti-American violence arises? Should we close more embassies for more days, or return home altogether?
Apparently al-Qaeda did not get the message that the administration's euphemisms of "workplace violence," "overseas contingency operations," "man-caused disasters" and jihad as "a holy struggle" were intended as outreach to the global Muslim community.
Instead, the terrorists are getting their second wind, as they interpret our loud magnanimity as weakness -- or, more likely, simple confusion. They increasingly do not seem to fear U.S. retaliation for any planned assaults. Instead, al-Qaeda franchises expect Americans to adopt their new pill-bug mode of shutting down and curling up until danger passes.
Our enemies have grounds for such cockiness. President Obama promised swift punishment for those who attacked U.S. installations in Benghazi and killed four Americans. So far the killers roam free. Rumors abound that they have been seen publicly in Libya.
Instead of blaming radical Islamist killers for that attack, the Obama re-election campaign team fobbed the assault on a supposedly right-wing, Islamophobic video maker. That yarn was untrue and was greeted as politically correct appeasement in the Middle East.
All these Libyan developments take place against a backdrop of "lead from behind." Was it wise for American officials to brag that the world's largest military had taken a subordinate role in removing Muammar Gadhafi -- with a military operation contingent on approval from the United Nations and Arab League but not the U.S. Congress?
No one knows what to do about the mess in Syria. But when you do not know what to do, it is imprudent to periodically put down "red lines." Yet the administration did just that to the Bashar al-Assad regime over the last two years.
In a similar vein, the administration has so far issued serial "deadlines" to the Iranians to cease the production of weapons-grade uranium. They don't seem much worried about yet another deadline.
In Egypt, the United States went from abandoning ally and crook Hosni Mubarak to welcoming the freely elected and anti-American Muslim Brotherhood. Now, we are both praising and damning the military junta that overthrew President Mohamed Morsi. Do we still call that "the Arab Spring"? Is a junta still a junta, a coup still a coup?
Our entire anti-terrorism agenda is a paradox. Obama ran for office on the promise of shutting down Guantanamo Bay, curbing the Patriot Act, ending renditions and preventative detention, and mumbling about drones. Then, in office, he went both hot and cold on all of them.
U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder hinted at trying accused terrorist killers such as Khalid Sheikh Mohammed in civilian courts and holding CIA interrogators responsible for enhanced interrogations. Then, the administration abruptly dropped those bad ideas and embraced or expanded many of the Bush-Cheney anti-terrorism protocols -- and in many cases went far beyond anything envisioned by the prior administration.
These paradoxes were not lost on our terrorist enemies. The successors to Osama bin Laden apparently guessed that the Obama administration might not like America's anti-terrorism policies any more than the terrorists themselves did.
News that the FBI scrutinized and then apparently forgot about unhinged Islamists such as Tamerlan Tsarnaev and Major Nidal Malik Hasan sent the wrong message to terrorists. Was the Obama administration more worried about hurting feelings than preventing further attacks?
Other rivals and enemies are now fully aware of our new pill-bug mode in the Middle East -- and are willing to bet that it might apply everywhere. Without worry over the U.S. reaction, Russia has given tentative asylum as a reward to Edward Snowden, who singlehandedly exposed -- and sabotaged -- a vast National Security Agency spying network. Increasingly, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan seem to be on their own with a bullying China, unsure whether to bend or resist.
Meanwhile, the new American pill bug curls up in hopes that the mounting dangers will just go away.

Jury clears Portland Public Schools in special ed demotion case, says treatment of former principal was bad but legal
Betsy Hammond | email@example.com
December 07, 2011, 9:02PM
Nine jurors out of 12 say Stacey Sibley failed to prove that her repeated complaints about staff safety were a prime reason she was demoted in 2009. She sought $750,000 for suffering and future salary loss but was awarded nothing.

Closing arguments raise questions of truthfulness in Portland Public Schools special ed whistleblower suit
Betsy Hammond | firstname.lastname@example.com
December 06, 2011, 8:00PM
Was Stacey Sibley demoted for standing up for employee safety and students' rights, or was she someone who disagreed on professional issues with her supervisor and couldn't handle not getting her way? A jury has to decide. Among the mysteries: Did a scheduled meeting by district higher-ups to plan for Sibley's demotion happen or not? It evidence is strikingly contradictory.

Got rocks?
School me in starter quads for my kids
What would be a good starter 4 wheeler for my kids? I have heard that e-ton's are about the best of those chinese looking ones. My Daughter is 8, and my son is 5.
I was around 6 or 7 when my parents bought a brand new 80cc yamaha, did us quite a few years of service. They currently have a Jeep Hurricane but I think they are ready for a little more speed. I am in the process of picking up a 1995 Blaster with a possible blown motor, but my buddy says it will be way too fast for them(once fixed), hence my question. Appreciate your time and knowledge in advance!
I heart Jeeps |

Blaster is too much bike for that young of a kid. I started when I was 5 on a 3 wheeler and then moved to a PW50 dirtbike and then a Yamaha 125 Breeze.
I would look for something like the Breeze. Automatic, reverse, easy to ride, decent amount of power and super reliable. My brother still rides a Blaster and he is 21. |

Stay away from those Chinese brand quads for kids. They break and you can never get parts for them from what I hear. I picked up a Honda 90 for my son. It's a 2004 and I think I paid like 800 for it. SO worth the money. It's Honda reliable and we've been having a ball with it. It's a semi auto which you shift the gears but you don't need a clutch. Also look for a quad that has a throttle limiter so you can tone it down while they learn to ride.

I bought my son a pw50 and made training wheels for it. Whatever you get them though, make sure you get them good helmets to go with them.

Yeeeee Haaaaw!
We kicked my kid off on a Bombardier 90 and it was perfect. That kid put some serious miles on it between the ages of 6 and 15.
There's a thumb screw that will limit the speed initially and you can start to crank it down as they progress. I think the top speed was right around 40 with my fatt ass on it once we opened it up all of the way. |

Duck Shootin' Wheelerer!!
My son started on a Polaris sportsman 90 at 5... he was a Big 5, but as a Huge 13 year old, he still rides it... I am a shade over 210 and 6' tall and ride it all the time... I can wheelie that little thing long time...
Seems to be a great little bike. My daughter is on it now and she won't let me sell it to get a bigger one!

Small Business Development Centers
The Small Business Development Center (SBDC) program has been vital to SBA's entrepreneurial outreach for more than 30 years. It has become one of the largest professional small business management and technical assistance networks in the nation. With
nearly 900 locations across the country, SBDCs offer free one-on-one expert business advice and low-cost training by qualified small business professionals to existing and future entrepreneurs.
The SBDC program includes special focus areas such as, green business technology, disaster recovery and preparedness, import and export assistance, veterans assistance, procurement assistance, electronic commerce, technology transfer and regulatory compliance. A number of SBDC networks have specialized programs or centers dedicated to these focus areas.
During the past thirty years, through a unique mix of federal, state and private sector resources, the SBDC program has increased its return on investment. Through federal grants, SBDCs in every state and territory provide the foundation for the economic growth of small businesses. These small businesses, in turn, advance local and regional economic development through the generation of business revenues, job creation and job retention. This return on investment is demonstrated by fiscal 2010 outcomes, where SBDCs:
• Assisted more than 13,600 entrepreneurs to start new businesses – an estimated 37 new business starts per day.
• Provided counseling services to over 107,000 emerging entrepreneurs and nearly 102,000 existing businesses.
• Provided training services to approximately 380,000 clients.
The efficacy of the SBDC program has been validated by a nationwide impact study. Of the clients surveyed, more than 80 percent reported that the business assistance they received from the SBDC counselor was worthwhile. Similarly, more than 50 percent reported that SBDC guidance was beneficial in making the decision to start a business. More than 40 percent of long-term clients, those receiving 5 hours or more of counseling, reported an increase in sales and 38 percent reported an increase in profit margins.

The Beacon
AACK! Invasion of the sea squirt
A blob-like creature is invading Long Island Sound and posing a threat to its lobsters and other shellfish. No, it's not the blob made famous by the cult-classic film, but rather "sea squirts" - an even stranger species. Read all about it here.

Just because P35 supports it, doesn't mean that the P5K is using it, actually I'm pretty certain that it doesn't have it. But if we think two years before its even useable, then I think I can wait
Yeah, it doesn't use it...and it probably won't be fixed by a BIOS update. Anyway, 2 years is way out.

The seven-time champions play the Hurricanes this weekend, and may be without the services of Romano, with the initial prognosis not looking good according to coach Todd Blackadder.
"Well I don't really know so I can't say too much," the Crusaders coach said to Yahoo Sport, with Romano's injury believed to be his ribs.
"But it would seem serious for him to come off and when we get back to Christchurch this afternoon Luke's going to go have a scan so we'll know then."

Central African Republic profile
The Central African Republic (CAR) has been unstable since its independence from France in 1960 and is one of the least-developed countries in the world.
It has endured several coups and a notorious period under a self-declared emperor, Jean-Bedel Bokassa, who headed a brutal regime.
The Bokassa era ended in 1979, when he was overthrown in a coup led by David Dacko and backed by French commandos based in the country.
After just two years in office Mr Dacko was toppled by Andre Kolingba, who eventually allowed multi-party presidential elections and was duly rejected in the first round.
Mr Kolingba's successor, Ange-Felix Patasse, had to contend with serious unrest which culminated in riots and looting in 1997 by unpaid soldiers.
When in that year the French pulled out, there were fears of a power vacuum, so Paris financed a group of French-speaking African countries to create a peacekeeping force. That force was then transformed into the UN Mission to the Central African Republic, or Minurca.
In 1999 Mr Patasse beat nine other candidates to become president again, but there were allegations of electoral fraud. He was overthrown in a coup in 2003 and went into exile in Togo.
At a glance
- Politics: Country described as a failed state in permanent crisis, facing mutinies and rebellions. Latest rebel alliance ousted president in March 2013, plunging country into chaos
- Economy: Decades of instability have undermined the economy. Diamonds are an important source of income - and rivalry
- International: Suffers spill-over of violence from neighbours; assisted by French military; hosts African peacekeepers. UN to deploy peacekeeping force
Country profiles compiled by BBC Monitoring
Illegal weapons proliferate across the CAR, the legacy of years of unrest. The unrest has displaced tens of thousands of Central Africans; many of them have crossed the border into Chad.
Some progress towards stabilising the country was made between 2008 and 2012, before the new Seleka rebel alliance marched south and captured the capital in March 2013, ousting President Francois Bozize.
The CAR possesses considerable agricultural, water and mineral resources. But corruption is rife and undermines the timber and diamond industries.
The country is endowed with virgin rainforests and has some of the highest densities of lowland gorillas and forest elephants in Africa.

Hello all,
I am trying to achieve a Nokia challenge: 250 reviews on the US Windows Phone Store. The deadline is today (in 12 hours). The app I released on March 20th, 2012 currently has 232 reviews. In other words, I need 18 new reviews to achieve the challenge. If you have a Windows Phone and live in the US, can you please help me and give a 5 star review to my app?
Here's a link to my app: http://www.windowsph...e1-a07348b2e4c5.

North America just witnessed the hottest month in the history of record keeping [1] (about 117 years). The month of July shattered every previous record, but was certainly not a freak occurrence. So far, the first 7 months of this year have been the warmest on average [1] since records began over a century ago. Media outlets were abuzz with coverage of floods, droughts, fires, and storms, so naturally you'd think climate change would have played a massive role in their coverage.
You'd be wrong.
A great new study by Media Matters for America [2] shows that our major media outlets – from cable news to print – almost completely ignored the role that man-made climate change played in our severe weather.
According to the study [2], only about 25% of print articles on the massive heat wave even mentioned climate change, while less than 9% of TV news stories about the weather mentioned climate change. Of the major cable outlets, MSNBC devoted the most time to discussing climate change, bringing up the issue in about 88% of their stories on the heat wave.
Not surprisingly, Fox News only mentioned climate change once [2], and the theory was quickly shot down by conservative hosts.
From the Media Matters report [2]:
Of the six TV outlets included in our analysis, ABC mentioned climate change the least, in only 2% of coverage. Among the cable networks, CNN mentioned climate change the least, in less than 4% of coverage. MSNBC was the only television network to regularly incorporate climate change into primetime segments on extreme heat.
Fox Mentioned Climate Change Once, Only To Dismiss It. In six primetime segments on extreme heat, Fox News raised climate change once. The Five's only liberal co-host Bob Beckel noted that record July heat is consistent with global warming, and was promptly dismissed by co-host Greg Gutfeld, who routinely denies that manmade global warming is occurring.
Overall, the major print outlets mentioned climate change in just over a quarter of articles on extreme heat. The New York Times led the pack, mentioning climate change in more than half of its coverage (54.5%), and the Washington Post mentioned it in 26% of articles on July heat. But the Associated Press, the Los Angeles Times, and USA Today mentioned it in less than 15% of coverage. The Wall Street Journal didn't mention climate change at all, although the paper had significantly fewer stories on extreme heat.
Only 8% Of Coverage Pointed Out That Human Activities Are Driving Climate Change. Only 6% of television segments and 12% of print articles noted that climate change is fueled by human activities including the burning of fossil fuels, which emit greenhouse gases that are warming the planet. The Associated Press, USA Today, Fox News and the Wall Street Journal never made that connection.
Media Matters also took the time [2] to show that these events were predictable, and that they were consistent with the effects we were expecting with anthropogenic climate change:
A 2012 Special Report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) deemed it "virtually certain" that heat extremes will become stronger and more frequent on a global scale in the 21st century, and "very likely" that heat waves will increase in "length, frequency, and/or intensity ... over most land areas." The report noted that "[p]rojected changes at subcontinental scales are less certain than is the case for the global scale" and that "[m]ean global warming does not necessarily imply warming in all regions and seasons."
A study by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's James Hansen and other scientists found that land areas across the globe are "much more likely to experience an extreme summer heat wave than they were in the middle of the 20th century".
But this isn't the first time that the media has failed in their coverage of climate and environment-related events. In January of this year, Media Matters put together a report [3] showing that media outlets were almost twice as likely to host Keystone XL proponents in their coverage of that issue. A report from the organization last year [4] also showed that climate skeptics and anti-EPA carpers were more likely to receive airtime than those who acknowledge climate change science and support strong environmental safeguards.
The poor media coverage could be the main reason why American voters don't believe that climate and environment issues are important [5] in this year's elections, with only 21% saying that combatting climate change is important to them. Canadians, on the other hand, have clearly learned more than Americans simply by observation, as a new poll shows that only 2% [6] of Canadians believe that climate change is a hoax.

I'm getting a crash everytime I try to export an OMF from Audition 5.0.1 ( and also from 5.0.0 )
I'm on a mac 10.7.3 any clues, anyone else seeing this?
Hi Ben,
When this crash occurs, do you get the Crash Reporter window? If you can submit the crash log, or email it to email@example.com, I'd appreciate it. Are you able to import an OMF file without a crash?
Thanks, Ben. I found the report and am sending a bug report up the chain now. To clarify, this worked fine before you installed the update patch, correct?
edit: I see now you mentioned this was broken before the patch as well. Did OMF export EVER work for you or has this been an issue since CS6 was installed?
Hi Durin
Actually no it wasn't working on 5.0 either, I tried installing the update patch in the hope it would fix it. Thanks for all your help with this.
Cheers Ben

Preliminary investigation yields that there might be a date-related bug in the ancient OMF Toolkit from Avid. Can you try setting your clock back on your system by a few months? I tried setting it back to 2011 and it worked for me, and then stopped when I came back to the current date.
WARNING: Some software copy protection mechanisms wack out if you change your system clock. For example, I think the time remaining on a trial version of Audition might immediately set itself to zero days left if this happens.
We're still investigating, however.
This thread was incredibly timely (pun intended)! I am using Audition 4.0x1815, Mac OS X 10.7.4, and was experiencing the same problem, crashing at the stage of "Making Composition Tracks" during OMF export. I rarely use Audition and this was the very first time I had tried an OMF export from the application. However, setting my system clock back to July 19, 2011 worked perfectly. The OMF now exports without crashing Audition.
In case it matters, initially I sent the sequence to Audition from Premiere (Right-click on sequence in Project panel > Edit in Adobe Audition > Sequence). I was also using Media Encoder at the same time to export different sequences. At some point, a dialog with a progress bar appeared in the jumble of windows on my desktop that said something about Dynamic Link, and I clicked "Cancel" before really thinking about it. I was distracted at the moment, and I'm sorry I can't recall the exact details, but thought I'd mention it in case that occurrence was related. I don't know which app presented the Dynamic Link dialog, but I had Premiere, Media Encoder, and Audition all open at that moment.
Hey Guys,
Just a quick note to let you all know we have released our 5.0.2 patch for Audition which has resolved this issue.
You can download and install the update by going to Help > Updates from within Audition, or by clicking the direct link below:
Mac: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=92&platform =Mac
While this issue was occuring on Mac only, if anyone needs the 5.0.2 update for Windows it can be downloaded from here:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=92&platform =Windows
Thanks for your patience while we worked to resolve the issue.
Thanks for the response Steve. I really hope that isn't Adobe's official stance on bug fixes. I feel like most bigger companies usually make sure their recent versions of software still work as they did when purchased. I'll be interested to see if any staff respond to my post.
I am also getting a crash on export. I am running 5.0.2 and am trying to export a large REFERENCE OMF (9.42GB) to a sound mastering company for our feature film. I have tried multiple things. Is there another option I am missing. Audition has worked great for us until now, in the final steps. Help!
Are you running Mac or Windows? If it's a Mac, can you launch Applications > Utilities > Console.app and send the most recent Audition crash report as an attachment to email@example.com? If not Mac, can you let me know any crash message or error dialog it displays?

Not just a running jacket....
January 17, 2013
I was looking for a light weight jacket that would provide some protection from the elements during hikes and treks. This jacket is very fitted: I am 5'2, 108 lbs -- the XS was too tight in the arms and chest, but the S fit perfectly. It looks very stylish and I love the longish sleeves with the thumb loops. The dragonfly/iris is a beautiful rich color, but doesn't scream out "Here I am in the outback in colors not found in nature." The jacket provides good protection from cool/chilly weather during hikes and early mornings at camp. It also stands up well to moderate wind and mist/very light rain. It is very light weight and doesn't take up a lot of room in your pack.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, PerformanceDecember 06, 2011
i bought this jacket for my wife, she loves it. the color, the contrast paneling. perfect for layering. i would highly recommend this piece to others.

What happens during a dental exam for children might vary depending on the child's age and treatment needs.
The dentist or hygienist might place your child on a table or have you hold your child on your lap to conduct the exam. Then the dentist or hygienist will likely:
During each regular checkup, the dentist or hygienist will continue to evaluate your child's oral hygiene and overall health, drinking and eating habits, and his or her risk of tooth decay. In addition to cleaning your child's teeth, the dentist or hygienist might:
As your child gets older, dental exams might also include counseling about the oral health risks associated with:
The dentist or hygienist might also discuss the possible removal of your child's wisdom teeth (third molars).
A dental X-ray allows the dentist to see detailed images of specific sections of your child's mouth. Traditional X-ray film is developed in a darkroom, but a newer technique allows X-ray images to be sent to a computer and viewed on a screen. Various types of oral X-rays are available, including:
X-rays aren't typically needed at every dental visit. Radiation exposure from dental X-rays is low — but talk to the dentist if you're concerned about the radiation exposure.
In some cases, the dentist might recommend making a dental impression to produce a replica of your child's teeth and oral tissue. The dentist or hygienist will fill a horseshoe-shaped tray with a soft, gelatin-like material and place it over your child's upper and then lower teeth. After a few minutes, the tray is removed and used to create a dental cast or replica of your child's mouth.

I have made some changes. Removed the wireless card and got a Cat5 cable between the router and linux box to minimise problems. Created a different fixed ip address for the wired connection. It's been running for about 5 hours and still going - the longest yet.
DHCP is renewing since the setting in the router is 3600 seconds. It is also telling me that the wired ip address is a fixed ip - the others have renewal times listed. It has been fine since the change to wired. I have just changed back to wireless again and it also reports fixed ip address in the router settings.
Why would DHCP renewal cause the problem? It is giving the same ip address to the same machine when renewing, even without a fixed ip. Why would this confuse the network?

Bright Lights, Big Problems
Electric streetlights have been with us since the 1880s, and it wasn't long thereafter that some manufacturers recognized the visual and cost-saving benefits of directing light down, onto the ground. In 1918 the Holophane Glass Co. published the very first roadway-lighting manual. Titled The New Era in Street Lighting, it set forth a number of recommended practices, among them the common-sense notion that "Light above the horizontal must be conserved." In a later section, the manual notes:
In addition to the two fundamental items of highly efficient lamps and the effective use of the light, as discussed, it is very important to see to it that the street lighting system produces an effect which surrounds the eyes of those using the streets with conditions under which the eye is free to perform its functions properly. Any system which fails in this respect is extravagant — no matter how efficient the lamps nor how efficiently the light may be directed upon the street surfaces or objects. Glare serves seriously to reduce the discerning power of the eye.
Unfortunately, almost no one heeded this unsung champion of good lighting practices. Instead, artificial skyglow became markedly more obvious in the late 20th century with the widespread use of high-intensity fixtures utilizing mercury-vapor and high-pressure-sodium lamps, and with a societal shift that found more people on the streets at night — and at later hours — than ever before. As our nocturnal wanderings increased, so too did the need for ubiquitous nighttime illumination. Then decision-makers began to equate "more light" with "better safety and security," even though objective proof of such a relationship did not exist.
Lighting and Crime
The problematic relationship between lighting and crime increases when one considers that offenders need lighting to detect potential targets and low-risk situations. Consider lighting at outside ATM machines, for example. An ATM user might feel safer when the ATM and its immediate surrounding area are well lit. However, this same lighting makes the patron more visible to passing offenders. Whom the lighting serves is unclear.
Vision and safety are further compromised by glare, which results when a light source forces the eye to adapt to a brighter scene than is actually present. Lighting engineers make a distinction between discomfort glare, which may not necessarily affect visual performance, and disability glare, which does. (One example of the latter is what you experience at night from the "high-beam" headlights of an oncoming vehicle.)
In recent years the role of glare on visual performance has taken center stage in lighting research. Nowhere is this truer than within the ranks of the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America, which establishes standards and recommended practices followed by lighting designers and manufacturers. New studies on glare, task-specific lighting, and their environmental context are driving major revisions in the society's approach to establishing recommendations. "There's been a profound change in the IESNA," says James Benya, a nationally recognized lighting professional, and pro-dark-sky principles now dominate the society's deliberations over outdoor lighting.

We offer two ways to locate information:
We have added the following products to your shopping cart from a previous visit:
The grapes come exclusively from Grands and Premiers Crus. 17 villages have entered in the 1999 blend, 82% from Grands Crus and 18% from Premiers Crus. The blend of La Grande Année 1999 is composed of 63% Pinot Noir and 37% Chardonnay.
La Grande Année is the Prestige Cuvée of Champagne Bollinger. It is only produced when exceptional quality harvests occur, and is the expression of Bollinger's know-how. More than the illustration of the vintage particularity, La Grande Année is the result of the Bollinger style, of its exceptional "terroir" and traditional wine making techniques. La Grande Année develops a beautiful rounded structure and combines rich, complex and intense aromas, the expression of which changes according to the characteristics of the vintage.
"With this vintage, there are signs of a wine that is maturing fast. That's the initial impression. But at the same time, there are wonderful dry fruits, minerality and sweet hazelnuts, all finely in balance. The layers get more complex, bringing in toast as well as acidity. Almost ready, but worth aging." 96 Points Wine Enthusiast
"A beautiful Champagne, from the complex floral-, coffee- and brioche-scented nose to the graphite, vanilla and citrus flavors. Light-weight and intense, with a lively structure and a long, lingering finish. Drink now through 2018. 2,500 cases imported." 94 Points Wine Spectator
"Vibrant complexity drives this wine, one of the best from the 1999 vintage. The spice, leather and green fruit aromas hold its energy, while cool, earthy limestone grounds that tension, compacts it into powerful mineral flavors. As muscular as that structure may be, it's beautifully balanced by the natural sweetness and freshness of the fruit—like the sweet pea and lima bean character of grüner veltliner. This has come a long way since we tasted it last year, and shows exceptional potential for further aging." 94 Points Wine & Spirits
"Pale straw. Vibrant, exotically perfumed bouquet evokes fresh pear and nectarine, with a wild spicecake quality adding complexity. Cinnamon-accented orchard fruit flavors are strikingly precise and palate-coating. Delivers outstanding concentration and finesse and finishes with superb persistence." 93 Points International Wine Cellar
"The 1999 La Grande Annee is a refined, elegant wine with pretty, exotic notes of apricots, peaches, honey, flowers, smoke and toasted oak. There is notable clarity and precision, in a style that is generous and approachable. The 1999 La Grande Annee is 63% Pinot Noir and 37% Chardonnay, of which 82% came from grand cru vineyards while 18% came from premier cru sites spanning a total of 16 villages. The wine was aged in oak and dosage was 7-9 grams. This bottle was disgorged in July, 2007. I also tasted the February, 2008 disgorgement which showed a more opulent, quality that I found utterly sensual and irresistible. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2014." 92 Points The Wine Advocate
"Pale gold hue with an active bead. Shy, buttery aromas with hints of cream and caramel. Rich tart tatin flavors highlighted by opulent peach and cream notes. Lengthy, enjoyable finish displays elegance as well as staying power." 92 Points The Wine News
In 1829, Champagne Bollinger introduced an instantly recognizable, dry, toasty style that connoisseurs around the globe have coveted ever since. Six generations of the Bollinger family have maintained that trademark style, and Bollinger is one of the rare Grande Marque houses to be owned, controlled and managed by the same family since it was founded. With 399 acres of...Read More About Bollinger
Champagne is both a region and a method. The wines come from the northernmost vineyards in France and the name conjures an image like no other can. An 18th Century Benedictine monk named Dom Perignon is said to be the first to blend both varietals and vintages, making good wines not only great, but also special and unique to their winemaker. Today, nearly 75% of Champagne...Read More About Champagne
Vintage Champagne and Sparkling Wines Vintage Champagne is made in particularly good years with optimum weather and the best grape selection. Some houses, like Dom Perignon, only make vintage Champagne, so they do not produce a wine every year and have no non-vintage bottlings. What makes vintage Champagne better?

Retinoblastoma is a rare cancer of the retina (the innermost layer of the eye, located at the back of the eye, that receives light and images necessary for vision). About 300 children will be diagnosed with retinoblastoma this year. It accounts for 3 percent of childhood cancers. Nearly all children with retinoblastoma can be cured of the disease if it has been diagnosed early enough, and 90 percent will have normal vision in at least one eye after treatment.
Retinoblastoma occurs due to mutations in a tumor suppressor gene (called RB1) located on chromosome #13. Two mutations (or gene changes) are necessary to "knock-out" this gene, and cause uncontrolled cell growth. In inherited retinoblastoma (40 percent of the cases), the first mutation is inherited from a parent, while the second occurs during the development of the retina. In sporadic retinoblastoma (60 percent of the cases), both mutations occur during development of the retina. Sporadic means occurs by chance. Alterations in the RB1 gene have also been found in other tumors, including osteosarcoma and breast cancer.
Most children with inherited retinoblastoma have tumors involving both eyes. Consider the following statistics:
60 percent to 75 percent of retinoblastoma cases involve one eye (unilateral), and the majority of these are not inherited.
25 percent of retinoblastoma cases are bilateral (both eyes) and hereditary.
15 percent of retinoblastoma cases are unilateral (one eye) and hereditary.
Any individual with a positive family history of retinoblastoma may want to seek genetic counseling to identify the specific risks of passing the gene or disease to their children.
The following are the most common symptoms of retinoblastoma. However, each child may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include:
Leukocoria. A white light reflex that occurs at certain angles when a light is shined into the pupil.
Strabismus (also called wandering eye or lazy-eye). A misalignment of the eyes; when one or both eyes do not appear to be "looking" in the same direction.
Pain or redness around, and swelling of the eye(s)
Poor vision or change in child's vision
Often the symptoms may not appear if the disease is diagnosed early. The symptoms of retinoblastoma may resemble other conditions or medical problems. Always consult your child's doctor for a diagnosis.
In addition to a complete medical and physical examination, diagnostic procedures for retinoblastoma may include:
Complete eye examination and medical history
Funduscopic examination. With the child under anesthesia, the pupils are dilated so the entire retina can be viewed and examined.
Ultrasound exam of the eye. This is one of the most commonly used tests to confirm diagnosis, using sound waves to create images of tissues.
Computed tomography scan (also called a CT or CAT scan). A diagnostic imaging procedure that uses a combination of x-rays and computer technology to produce horizontal, or axial, images (often called slices) of the body. A CT scan shows detailed images of any part of the body, including the bones, muscles, fat, and organs. CT scans are more detailed than general X-rays.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). A diagnostic procedure that uses a combination of large magnets, radiofrequencies, and a computer to produce detailed images of organs and structures within the body without the use of X-rays.
Lumbar puncture (spinal tap)
Blood tests
Genetic and/or DNA testing
A diagnosis may be made before symptoms are present. If a family history is positive for retinoblastoma, frequent eye examinations may be necessary at many stages of the child's development to determine the presence of any tumor. When retinoblastoma is diagnosed, tests will be performed to determine the size of the tumor, and if the tumors have spread to the other parts of the body. This is called staging and is an important step toward planning a treatment program.
There are various staging systems that can be used for retinoblastoma. Always consult your child's physician for more information on staging.
The newest staging method is called The International Classification for Intraocular Retinoblastoma and it groups tumors into five categories--groups A through E--based on the likelihood of saving the eye.
The more traditional method of staging is the Reese-Ellsworth stages of retinoblastoma (this staging system is only for tumors that have not spread beyond the eye):
Group I. One or more tumors that are less than 4 disc diameters (DD) in size and are all located at or behind the equator*.
Group II. Either one or more tumors that are 4 to 10 DD in size located at or behind the equator.
Group III. Any lesion in front of the equator or one tumor larger than 10 DD behind the equator.
Group IV. Multiple tumors with some or all greater than 10 DD in size, or any lesions that extend forward to the ora serrata (front edge of the retina).
Group V. Very large tumors involving more than half of the retina or that have spread into the vitreous (the gelatinous material that fills the eye).
*The "equator" is an imaginary line that divides the eye into two equal parts: a front half and a back half.
Specific treatment for retinoblastoma will be determined by your child's doctor based on:
Your child's age, health, and medical history
Extent of the disease
Your child's tolerance for specific medications, procedures, or therapies
Expectations for the course of the disease
Your opinion or preference
The primary goal of treatment is to remove the tumor and prevent metastasis (spreading) of the cancer to other parts of the body.
Treatment may include one or more of the following:
Enucleation (surgical removal of the eye or eyes involved with the tumor)
Radiation therapy
Laser therapy or photocoagulation
Thermal therapy
Cryotherapy (uses a freezing process to destroy the tumor)
Prognosis greatly depends on the following:
The extent of the disease
The size and location of the tumor
Presence or absence of metastasis
The tumor's response to therapy
The age and overall health of your child
Your child's tolerance of specific medications, procedures, or therapies
New developments in treatment
As with any cancer, prognosis and long-term survival can vary greatly from child to child. Every child is unique and treatment and prognosis is structured around the child's needs. Prompt medical attention and aggressive therapy are important for the best prognosis.
Continuous follow-up care is essential for a child diagnosed with retinoblastoma. In hereditary retinoblastoma, new tumors may form in either eye until the child is 3 to 4 years old. Children will need very close follow-up by an ophthalmologist. Children with hereditary retinoblastoma and those treated with some chemotherapies, radiation therapies, and some other therapies, are at higher risk for new cancers later in life and should have regular medical and eye exams.

Photo: Thinkstock It's no secret, among my friends and family, that I can't sing. I have a voice that could peel paint off the walls. For a long time I hid this flaw, embarrassed. I willed myself to silence when a favorite song came on the radio, lip-synched "Happy Birthday" whenever somebody brought out a cake. In church when voices were ablaze with the praise songs I loved, I imagined that some other woman's sweet soprano was coming out of my mouth. "Getting happy off of someone else's sound" was what I called it.
One Sunday morning I was pressing my lips shut and clapping my hands when the minister sidled up next to me. "Why aren't you singing?" he asked. "I can't sing," I whispered to him, afraid of attracting too much attention. "I have an awful voice." Then the minister looked at me and said five of the most beautiful words I have ever heard. He said, "Do you think God cares?" Ever since that glorious day, my love for singing has grown exponentially. I sing in the shower and around the house. I sing in the car, at church, and on the dance floor. The DJ who plays Gloria Gaynor is just asking for me to put a hurting on "I Will Survive." I've learned that it's a blessing when you can take something you once weighted down with shame and turn it into a pleasure. There's an art to doing things badly, especially in a society that puts so much emphasis on beauty, perfection, and achievement. Most of us talk ourselves out of doing anything we're not good at. Maybe we don't admit that our egos drive us to put forth only our brightest and best selves. We are, after all, so busy. Who has time for something we fully expect to be miserable at? Liba, an artist friend of mine, gave me a set of watercolors and paper. It sat on the shelf for years because I'd never learned to draw, let alone paint, anything more than a smiley face. I couldn't waste that lovely paper on smiley faces. Besides—and this was always the clincher—who would I show my artwork to? I don't think I'm alone in my elementary school affinity for show-and-tell. Why learn a piece of music unless it's to be performed? Why knit a sweater unless it's to be given to a loved one? We think everything we do has to be up to snuff, and we forget that the pure, uncensored joy of living in our own skin comes when we are not attached, 24-7, to either our fans or our critics. We can paint just for ourselves. We can belt out torch songs in an empty office when everyone else has gone home and tango across the living room solo. No one's going to stop us from baking soufflés that fall and eating them in the privacy of our own kitchens. Trust me on this one: Chocolate doesn't have to be beautiful to taste really, really good. Sometimes ethnic stereotypes make our shortfalls all the more painful. My posse of friends is brimming with black girls who can't play basketball, Latinas who don't speak Spanish well, and Asians who can't do math. "Black girls are supposed to be able to dance!" moans my friend Ali, who awkwardly muddled through our hip-hop adolescence and its complicated dances. These days Ali is more comfortable with how her body moves, whatever people might say or think. She keeps on grooving even when she reaches that inevitable moment on the dance floor when, she says, "I realize I have lost the beat with no clue where to find it."
