Jan Hooks Dead At 57
Posted on October 11, 2014 by Brian DiMaio
Jan Hooks, right, in a dress rehearsal of the famous Brenda The Waitress sketch with Alec Baldwin, center, and RECOiL writer/director Brian DiMaio, right. DiMaio's part was cut from the scene in the final sketch, allegedly at Hooks request. DiMaio would return the favor by casting Hooks in his film RECOiL and then cutting her scenes from the final cut.
New York—Comedienne and actress Jan Hooks, best known for her work on "Saturday Night Live," died Thursday. She was 57.
The cause of death hasn't been released, though her representatives said she had been battling a serious illness for some time.
Besides her brilliant work on "Saturday Night Live" when the show was actually pretty damn good (she was brilliant as Sinead O'Connor taking on Phil Hartman's amazing Frank Sinatra in one of the best skits ever), Brooks also appeared on "Designing Women," "Third Rock From the Sun" and as Jenna Maroney's mother on "30 Rock."
On the big screen, Hooks appeared in films like "Pee-Wee's Big Adventure," "Batman Returns," "RECOiL" and "Jiminy Glick in Lalawood."
No further details about her death were released.

Posted on July 18, 2014 by Brian DiMaio
Elaine Stritch, right, first met RECOiL writer/director Brian DiMaio, left, on the set of a game show in the early 1960's.
Birmingham, MI—Tony and Emmy Award winning actress Elaine Stritch died Thursday. She was 89.
Known to most uncultured neanderthals who never saw a Broadway play as Jack Donaghy's fun-loving, caring, affectionate mother Colleen on "30 Rock," Stritch starred in dozens of Broadway and traveling shows, including, "Anything Goes," "A Little Night Music," "The King and I" and "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?"
She won a Tony and Drama Desk Award for her performance in "Elaine Stritch at Liberty" in 2002 and was inducted into the American Theater Hall of Fame in 1995.
She won an Emmy Award for her work on "30 Rock" in 2007 and for a guest appearance on "Law and Order" in 1993.
Besides her work on stage and on television, Stritch appeared on the big screen in such films as, "Three Violent People," Who Killed Teddy Bear," "RECOiL" and "Cocoon: The Return."
She was married in 1973 to actor John Bay until his death in 1982.

Posted on March 13, 2013 by Brian DiMaio
Waynes World: The Musical may feature theater vetrans Nathan Lane and Clay Aiken.
New York—A spokesman for "Saturday Night Live" creator and producer Lorne Michaels has confirmed that he will be producing a Broadway musical adaptation of the 1992 classic film, "Wayne's World," set to open this fall.
The musical will appear at the Longacre Theatre on West 48th St. American Idol alum Clay Aiken has already been cast to play Garth, Wayne's bespectacled sidekick, played by Dana Carvey on "Saturday Night Live" and the two "Wayne's World" films. Denzel Washington has been cast as famous record producer Frankie "Mr. Big" Sharp.
The role of Wayne, created by Shrek himself, Mike Myers, has not yet been filled at press time, but a spokesman for Michaels confirmed that the three candidates currently being considered for the role are Tony-Award nominated actor Jeremy Jordan, Nathan Lane and Nigel Lindsay.

Lifetime Network Offices Protested By Angry Union Members After "Project Runway All-Stars" Episode
Posted on January 23, 2013 by Michele Meadows
"What would Tim Gunn do?" He would make it work.
A symphony of angry plastic and jolly laughter- a sea of cowboy hats, beards, and doo rags- greeted employees of the Lifetime Network as they attempted to make their way into their New York City headquarters yesterday morning. A blanket union of bucket drummers, mall Santas and horse whisperers, formed in 2009 after an episode of the NBC television show "30 Rock" parodied a union of the same composition, barricaded the entrance to the network in protest of the recent episode of "Project Runway All-Stars."
In the final episode designers presented mini-collections in their own runway shows complete with music and lighting. Designer Emilio Sosa kicked off his young, hip collection with a bucket drummer in silhouette behind a screen at the end of his runway. Unfortunately for Sosa, he, Project Runway execs and the Lifetime Network neglected to contact their local union for bucket talent, and instead used Joel "Chuy" Rodriguez, a Lifetime Network executive's nephew, aspiring bucket drummer and former contestant on the ABC show "Bachelor Pad."

PROVINCE INVESTS IN NEW FIRE ALARM SYSTEM FOR CENTENNIAL CONCERT HALL AND MANITOBA MUSEUM
New System Reduces Maintenance Costs, Meets Latest Safety Codes: Friesen
Finance Minister Cameron Friesen announced today the Manitoba government's latest investment in the Manitoba Centennial Centre (MCC), a $5-million commitment to upgrade the centre's fire alarm system.
"For more than 50 years, the Centennial Centre has been a great source of pride to Manitobans," said Friesen, who is responsible for central services. "This is a much needed investment to preserve these wonderful venues and ensure the safety of the many thousands of people who visit each year."
The new fire alarm system is comprised of two systems networked together, one for the Centennial Concert Hall and one for the Manitoba Museum, and is designed to meet the latest building codes and standards.
Friesen noted the new system will replace the existing system that requires frequent servicing. It will reduce annual maintenance costs and comply with workplace health and safety provisions, he added.
"Today's announcement is another great example of our government's support for the arts and creative industries in Manitoba," said Sport, Culture and Heritage Minister Cathy Cox. "The Centennial Centre is an important venue for so many wonderful productions and presentations, and we are delighted to help preserve it for Manitobans to enjoy for years to come."
The minister confirmed the project has been awarded to McCaine Electric Ltd. Work is expected to begin in June and be completed late this year, she added.
"The Manitoba Centennial Centre Corporation (MCCC) welcomes the financial commitment Minister Friesen and the Province of Manitoba is making to replace the life safety systems of the centre," said Karl Loepp, chair of the MCC board of directors. "This investment is one of the largest commitments made in recent memory and ensures Manitoba's premier centre for the arts will continue to operate in a safe, efficient manner for the 950,000 patrons who attend events each year."
In addition to today's announcement, on May 12 the province announced a $1.4-million commitment to the Manitoba Museum's Bringing Our Stories Forward capital renewal project, with another $3.6 million available if private donation targets are met. The Manitoba government also invested $4.2 million for the museum's expansion and renovation of Alloway Hall, which reopened in March of 2017.
The MCC is a major arts, science and culture centre, which houses the Centennial Concert Hall, Planetarium and the Manitoba Museum. With seating for over 2,300 people, the Concert Hall is Manitoba's premier performing arts facility and is home to the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra, Manitoba Opera and Canada's Royal Winnipeg Ballet. The Manitoba Museum is the largest, not-for-profit heritage and science centre in the province and is renowned for its vivid portrayal of Manitoba's rich and colourful history.

Constantly on the hunt for new and different items to provide for our customers. Check us out at the store, online or find us on the road!


Funny old day today, made one sill mistake that if in a test would have been a fail. Spent a fair bit of time today parking in bays, started off at ASDA, who despite being in the empty part of the car park told Kev he could not teach learners in Car Parks. Went down to Marine Drive and had people driving behind us while trying to park in the bays.
Anyway seem to have got he parking in bays quite well, did one perfectly by accident, still need to remember to keep checking behind me.
Got a lesson every day this week, so I am just going to do short summaries rather than write anything at length. Aced turning round in the road again, missed a check on my reverse park and went too close, then too wide then got it right on reverse round the corner. Also had a tendency to drive a little to far right on faster roads, must remember the two points on the windscreen the markings should pass through.
Tomorrow is bay parking more reverse parking and reverse round a corner.
Passed the 60 hours of driving lessons milestone today, which probably equates to about 58 hours of actual driving. What with the first couple of lessons being driven to somewhere to practice, and the end of lessons going over Drivers Records from time to time. Turning round in the road was pretty much spot on, Kev wanted me to make a mistake so that he could ask me to do it again so we would be pointing the right way again. Reverse round a corner wasn't as bad as usual I concentrated very hard – however I find it difficult to get the observations in and make the changes to steering to get round the corner. Reverse parking went very wrong from the outset – I was phased by a white van and rushed it, getting it all wrong from the outset.
The rain was really quite heavy on the way home, it was interesting to be in that situation but made it very difficult to see and make judgments in my door mirrors. Still figuring out where all of the controls for the car are, it doesn't seem to quite make sense in my head that the rear wiper is pushing the right control forward and front wipers are pushing it up.
Have booked another 6 lessons with Kev over the course of the next two weeks, one every day over half term. A bit of a drive round on the Monday and then my test on the Tuesday. Starting to get minor butterflies when I think about it, although reading a book or playing EVE gets my mind off it.
Today was a very bizarre day, it seemed to me that the whole country ground to a halt (electronically too). I got a text message at 0630 this morning telling me to stay in bed as the school I work at is closed. After a slightly more gentle wake up than usual, I discovered that the local bus company had suspended services, twitter was going mad with snow reports from the UK, someone even came up with a Twitter & Google Maps mash up.
As it turns out Brighton and Hove was not alone London also had its bus service suspended. It seems that much of Brighton and Hove wasn't gritted because it was too cold. In the end my driving lesson was canceled because they roads were just not safe.
Why is it the whole of the south-east of England ground to a halt? we weren't prepared! Brighton and Hove's reasoning for not gritting the roads was it was too cold, what does the temperate have to do with it? the answer is that a 1:9 salt to water solution lowers the freezing point of water to -6c whereas a 1:4 solution lowers the freezing point to -16c (Source). Why this wonder of modern physics escaped those responsible for salting roads I do not know.
So the council not gritting the roads is the reason for the havoc caused by snow flakes, no probably not, I suspect the lack of preparedness stretches from the biggest to the largest. How many people in the country have supplies of water, heat and light in their house. A couple of large bottles (say 2 x 4 liters) of water will typically last one person about 4 days, have you got that much water at home… I don't think I have. Have you got enough candles or glow sticks to allow you to move safely round your house after dark? How long will it take your house to get dangerously cold when there is no heating and it is -6 outside? Do you have any way of generating heat, cooking stoves candles can these be safely used inside? Can you prepare any food without power, do you have an non electric can opener any more? I have glow sticks and a manual can opener, not sure how much food I have in the house – cold baked beans would work but you can't survive on them.
What would happen if it was more serious than snow, what would happen if you were in New Orleans on August 29th 2005 would money do you any good. What would happen if you only had a £20 note, would anyone accept it – would anyone have change. I am taking it to extremes now, however today has taught me a lesson there are some things you don't think about until it is too late.
On a cheerful note, Catherine and I spent a nice day together we built a snow rabbit (or perhaps cat) went for a walk and spent some time together. As far as I'm concerned today was a free day, a gift, and I enjoyed it.

GM's Former Uzbekistan Joint Venture To Begin Selling Chevrolet Crossovers and SUVs
— Feb 7, 2020
General Motors' former Uzbekistan joint-venture has begun importing several Chevrolet crossover models into the country and may begin local production of the vehicles if sales are strong enough.
UzAuto said this week it will be monitoring sales of the Chevrolet Equinox, Tahoe, Trailblazer and Traverse models in the country, which it began importing earlier this year. If sales of the vehicles are sufficient, it will invest $1 billlion to $2 billion to produce each model, according to Wards Auto. The vehicles will likely be built at UzAuto's existing Asaka plant in the eastern part of the country, which currently builds the Chevrolet Spark, Cobalt, Gentra/Lacetti and Nexia cars. The crossovers would replace the cars at the plant, which employs roughly 8,000 people and has an annual output of around 250,000 units.
Chevrolet Trailblazers ready to be shipped to Uzbekistan
In addition to those models, UzAuto also currently builds the Chevrolet Tracker and Malibu at a plant in Tashkent and the Damas and Labo at a separate facility in Pitnak. It's not clear what the future of these models would be if the new crossover models end up entering production in the country.
UzAuto was formerly called GM Uzbekistan and was a joint venture between state-owned holding company UzAvtosanoat and GM itself, with UzAvtosanoat claiming a 75% stake and GM holding the remaining 25%. The company was first established in 1996 as part of a joint venture between the Uzbek government and Korean brand Daewoo. This initial joint venture was called UzDaewoo Auto, though it was eventually renamed GM Uzbekistan after GM acquired Daewoo's assets in 2001. UzAvtosanoat bought GM out if its remaining stake in the company last year, becoming UzAuto.
Ravon brand logo
UzAuto markets vehicles under both the Chevrolet and Ravon brands. It it ends up producing the new Chevrolet crossover vehicles, it will also export them to other countries in addition to selling them locally in Uzbekistan. The company already exports vehicles to other countries in the region including Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Belarus and Azerbaijan and sends vehicles to some African and Middle Eastern countries as well.
Additionally, UzAuto has said that it may be interested in manufacturing vehicles outside of the country and is currently in talks with GM to acquire its St. Petersburg plant in Russia, which the automaker closed in 2015.

Many people have been quick to dismiss Bitcoin's prospects recently, especially since the world's leading cryptocurrency is drawing ever-closer to the oft-dreaded "halvening." Despite all the doom and gloom predictions surrounding Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, however, there are plenty of reasons to believe that the halvening is a perfectly normal part of the crypto-market instead of being something worthy of our fear.
As a matter of fact, Bitcoin could even explode in price once the halvening happens. Here's a brief explanation of the forthcoming halvening, and what it means for Bitcoin's future valuation prospects.
The halvening may sound like a terrifying event out of a sci-fi movie, but in reality, it's much less sinister and much more essential to the ongoing maintenance of the Bitcoin network. Around May 27, 2020, the coin reward for Bitcoin mining will be drastically changed - indeed, it will be halved entirely. Whereas people today can be rewarded with 12.5 Bitcoins in exchange for mining new Bitcoin blocks, which maintains the overall network and adds new tokens to the market, miners will only receive 6.25 Bitcoins after the dreaded halvening occurs. Since Bitcoin's creation in 2009, we've already undergone two halvenings, and this latest one will be no different.
Every halvening is a momentous occasion largely because nobody is certain how the market is going to react. Some insist that a halvening means Bitcoin's price is going to plummet, arguing that miners now have little to no incentive to keep expanding the network. In reality, however, Bitcoin's price has benefited from previous halvenings; after the first halvening in 2012, for instance, the world's leading cryptocurrency shot up to a then all-time-high of $1,000. There are thus clear reasons to believe that a halvening doesn't necessarily spell out doom for Bitcoin in the near-future.
With mainstream actors increasingly finding themselves interested in Bitcoin, and large financial institutions beginning to mull the creation of their own cryptocurrencies, there are few reasons to be pessimistic about Bitcoin even in light of the forthcoming halvening. Bitcoin halvenings usually occur every four years, or after 210,000 blocks have been mined, so the halvening could take place just around the time that cryptocurrencies become mainstays of the modern economy.
Another reason that Bitcoin could see its price flourish after the halvening is that the cryptocurrency will continue to be secure, an alluring option in a day-and-age defined by data breaches and hacking efforts. Ethereum Classic recently suffered from a 51% attack, for instance, something unlikely to happen to Bitcoin thanks to the token's impressive hash rate. Given that Bitcoin will likely remain the most secure cryptocurrency on the market for the foreseeable future, it's fair to say that investors will be attracted to it even after the halvening occurs.
Mainstream media coverage of the halvening is sure to bring in newcomers to the cryptocurrency marketplace, too. When major outlets in the world of tech report on Bitcoin halvenings, they traditionally generate an immense amount of attention for cryptocurrencies amongst mainstream audiences who are unfamiliar with the technology. Any attention for Bitcoin is good attention, as the fledgling digital currency needs all the support it can get as it attempts to supplant traditional cash.
Furthermore, the halvening is an important part of mitigating inflation within the Bitcoin community.
If too many cryptocurrency coins are released too quickly, the overall value of the Bitcoin market becomes murky, with investors everywhere uncertain if they're about to endure another sudden plunge. Bitcoin's upper limit is 21 million, meaning once the network hits that limit, no more coins can be released. Until that number is hit, constant halvening will be necessary to ensure rapid inflation doesn't destroy the cryptocurrency in the marketplace.
By far the biggest reason I'm convinced that Bitcoin could explode in price once the halvening happens is that experts believe halvenings are necessary parts of the system. Satoshi Nakamoto explained his inflationary logic in an email, for instance, wherein Bitcoin's mysterious creator makes it quite clear that inflation is a serious threat to cryptocurrencies that needs to be mitigated. Halvening encourages sustainable growth, and overall is quite a positive thing for Bitcoin's long-term health.
Don't buy into the panic or believe the insinuations that Bitcoin is on the brink of failure. People have been counting the world's leading cryptocurrency out since day one, and the forthcoming panic over the approaching halvening is no different. Regardless of the fear and uncertainty surrounding a halvening, it's a necessary part of making Bitcoin a healthy token that has long-term viability in a marketplace that distrust it. Nobody knows what Bitcoin's valuation will be like after the halvening, but I see plenty of reasons to be optimistic about the token as it wisely moves to clamp down on inflation.

Medical marijuana ban fails in town of Red Cliff
Marijuana | December 15, 2014
smiller@vaildaily.com
RED CLIFF — Voters here Tuesday retained two town council members and rejected a proposed ban on medical marijuana operations.
Anuschka Bales and Tom Henderson, both current board members, were both elected to four-year terms. But the election still leaves the seven-member board short two people. Town clerk Barb Smith said the town will post the vacancies, with a 30-day period for interested people to apply for the board positions.
With just two people running for four seats, the town might have canceled the spring election, except for a resident-supported ballot measure that would have banned medical marijuana operations. There are no such businesses in town now, and mayor Scott Burgess said there are no pending applications, either.
But the town council last year approved regulations for retail marijuana operations, which prompted a group of town residents to sponsor both the medical marijuana ban ballot measure and a possible fall ballot measure to ban retail operations.
Burgess said the residents couldn't put both measures on the April municipal election ballot due to language in Amendment 64, the 2012 state constitutional amendment that legalized the possession, growing and retail sale of marijuana for recreation purposes. According to the amendment, communities can only vote to ban retail sales and growing operations in the November general election of even-numbered years.
Town voters in 2012 voted for Amendment 64 by a wide margin — Burgess said roughly 75 percent of voters cast ballots in favor of the measure. Tuesday's vote against the ban wasn't that decisive, but the margin of defeat was still in the 60 percent range.
Diana Cisneros, a life-long town resident who helped circulate petitions to put the medical ban on Tuesday's ballot, said she was disappointed in the outcome.
"I worked long and hard on it," she said. "I guess other people didn't agree."

Exclusive: TrackHQ.com interview with Boris Said
28 Featured, K1 Speed Anaheim, K1 Speed Austin, K1 Speed Carlsbad, K1 Speed Irvine, K1 Speed Ontario, K1 Speed Phoenix, K1 Speed Santa Clara, K1 Speed Seattle, K1 Speed South Florida, K1 Speed Torrance, News – K1 Speed April 28, 2012
Anyone familiar with contemporary motor racing, of nearly any kind, knows the name Boris Said. His shock of curly dark brown hair, signature goatee and his success in so many forms of motorsport have made him a household name in households where racing is spoken.
In his 25-year career as a race car driver, Said has competed in the United States, Europe and Australia in everything from off road races to stock cars, prototypes and sports sedans in sprint and endurance racing. Beginning in 1988 as the Sports Car Club of America's Rookie of the Year, Said went on to win Showroom Stock GT at the Runoffs for three consecutive years. Those successes led him from the ranks of amateur to professional racing driver, and to this day, Said is the only American driver to have won the 24 Hours of the Nurburgring.
In addition to his successes in Europe, Said has competed in the SCCA Trans Am series, IMSA in which he won 15 races, including the 1997 and 1998 Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona and the 1998 12 Hours of Sebring. Said also began racing in the NASCAR series in 1997 with the then-titled Craftsman Truck Series. His experience in sports racing led other NASCAR teams to employ him as a driving coach to other Sprint Cup drivers when the tour visited road courses such as Infineon and Watkins Glen.
In addition to co-owning K1 Speed karting centers and running his BMW dealership in Murrieta, Calif., Said still maintains a racing schedule on three continents. Clearly, he isn't slowing down.

From left, Dr. Wiley Chambers, US FDA; Jennifer Hunt, Editas Medicine, Tami Morehouse, LCA patient; Jeffrey Fineman, panel moderator.
Successful clinical drug trials are a cornerstone of U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval, such as with LUXTURNA™, a ground-breaking genetic therapy that helps restore vision in Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) patients with a mutation in their RPE65 gene (LCA2).
But the FDA's Dr. Wiley A. Chambers II cautioned LCA families and patients at a recent LCA Family Conference hosted by Sofia Sees Hope to make sure their clinical trial of interest is real and not bogus.
Clinical trials drive research with the goal of finding treatments or cures that need FDA approval before commercial use. Twenty-three gene-based clinical trials targeting 13 genes are underway, including an LCA4 (AIPL1) trial, according to Foundation Fighting Blindness. More than 20 retinal cell therapy trials are in progress, and another 100 genes are under investigation in the preclinical pipeline, the Foundation reported.
Chambers is supervisory medical officer in the Office of New Drugs in the FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. The center's mission is to assure that safe and effective drugs are available to the American people.
He was among three panelists who joined moderator Jeffrey Finman, PhD., of Jupiter Point Pharma Consulting, in exploring the development and approval of new treatments for rare diseases, including LCA. The panel was part of Sofia Sees Hope's first-ever LCA Family Conference in Groton, CT, on Oct. 6.
Jennifer Hunt with Editas Medicine, a discovery-phase biotechnology company, and Tami Morehouse, a participant in the breakthrough LCA2 (RPE65) genetic therapy trial joined Chambers on the panel.
He said every clinical trial is assigned an Investigational New Drug (IND) number. No number, no real trial.
Chambers sited the disastrous case of a 77-year-old woman who traveled to Georgia to have stem cells injected in her eyes in the hopes of a cure or at least help for her macular degeneration. The procedure entailed taking fat from the woman's belly, separating stem cells that naturally occur in fat, and injecting them into her eyes to regenerate damaged tissue.
The procedure, not covered by insurance and not approved by the FDA, cost the woman $8,900. Within three months, her retinas – the eye's layer of light-sensitive cells – had peeled away from the rest of her eyes. Her vision deteriorated to where she only could see hand movement before her eyes. She no longer could find her way on her own.
To fulfill its mission, the FDA monitors the drug development process during investigational stages, approves new drug products that are safe and efficacious, and monitors post-approval adverse events.
The FDA does not conduct clinical studies, choose which products a company will study, force companies to market products, or regulate the practice of medicine.
Approval depends on whether the benefits of a drug outweigh the risks.
and missing out on an alternative therapy.
Panelist Jennifer Hunt, vice president of clinical operations for Editas Medicine, described the process of developing a medicine that corrects mutated genes through editing. Using her company's investigational medicine, EDIT-101, as an example, she detailed the course for finding an ocular medicine to treat patients with LCA10 (CEP290). LCA10 is one of the leading causes of blindness beginning in the first years of life.
Editas is working on developing CRISPR-based medicines (pronounced crisper, and meaning Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats). CRISPRs are specialized stretches of DNA; the protein Cas9, meaning CRISPR-associated, is an enzyme that acts like a pair of molecular scissors, capable of cutting strands of DNA, according to LiveScience.
EDIT-101 is poised to be the first in vivo CRISPR medicine used in human trials. Before those clinical trials begin, researchers have been looking to answer key questions, such as, does editing restore protein expression in cells and what are the best clinical trials for patients?
Editas researchers also are conducting an ongoing natural history study with 40 patients, ages 3 and older. They are followed up with six times over the course of a year at seven sites – four in the United States and three in Europe – to characterize them, assess their vision changes and validate study endpoints.
Editas has stated it plans to file an Investigational New Drug (IND) application with the FDA in October. Once allowed by the FDA, Editas can begin clinical trials.
Phase 1 investigation of new drugs in humans is a phase of research to describe clinical trials that focus on the safety of a drug. They are usually conducted with healthy volunteers, and the goal is to determine the drug's most frequent and serious adverse events and, often, how the drug is broken down and excreted by the body. These trials usually involve a small number of participants.
Phase 2 consists of research to describe clinical trials that gather preliminary data on whether the drug is effective in people who have a certain condition/disease. Participants receiving the drug may be compared to similar participants receiving a different treatment, usually an inactive substance, called a placebo, or a different drug. Safety continues to be evaluated, and short-term adverse events are studied.
Phase 3 research is to describe trials that gather more information about a drug's safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. These studies typically involve more participants.
The third panelist, Tami Morehouse, spoke to the safety and effectiveness of LUXTURNA, a medication developed by Spark Therapeutics that the FDA approved last December for commercial use. Tami made medical history at age 44 when she became the oldest person to participate in the successful Phase 1 LCA-RPE65 genetic therapy clinical trial in 2009.
Dr. Jean Bennett and her husband, Dr. Albert Maguire successfully used the treatment on Lancelot, a dog born blind with a mutation in his RPE65 gene, before testing the medication on humans.
Prior to the trial, Tami could see faces, but much of the time she saw dark, gray haze. She woke up every morning when her alarm clock went off, wondering, would this be the day she would wake up with no vision.
"I had no hope whatsoever," she said.
Michael learned of Dr. Bennett and her ongoing clinical trials at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) from a radio broadcast.
The trials resulted in FDA approval of LUXTURNA, a gene therapy that enabled Tami to regain some of her vision.
"It was an incredible experience that was a long time coming," she said.
Tami said she is "walking, living proof" of the treatment's safety and effectiveness. She told her audience to keep in mind that older people, along with children and young adults, can benefit from the treatment.

What is striking about these loanwords is that their pronunciation and spelling has been assimilated to Old English practices, so that the spelling-sound correspondences were not disturbed. Note, for instance, the spelling mynster, which shows the Old English front rounded vowel /y/, the <æ> in Old English mæsse, indicating the Old English front vowel. The Old English spelling of fenix with initial <f> shows that the word was pronounced the same way as in Latin, but that the spelling was changed to reflect Old English practices. While the spelling of Old English biscop appears similar to that of Latin episcopus, the pronunciation was altered to the /ʃ/ sound, still heard today in bishop, and so the <sc> spelling retained its Old English usage. This process of assimilation can be contrasted with the fate of the later loanword, episcopal, borrowed from the same Latin root in the fifteenth century but which has retained its Latin spelling and pronunciation. However, during the third state of latin borrowing in the tenth century, a number of words from Classical Latin were borrowed which were not integrated into the native language in the same way. The foreign status of these technical words was emphasized by the preservation of their latinate spellings and structure, as we can see from a comparison of the tenth-century Old English word magister (Latin magister), with the earlier loan mægester, derived from the same latin word. Where the earlier borrowing has been respelled according to Old English practices, the later adoption has retained its classical latin spelling.


Brett Renzi connected on five of six kicks this afternoon, including the game-winning 33-yard field goal as time expired, which helped Brockport defeat Delaware Valley, 31-28, in the 2017 NCAA Division III Football Tournament Quarterfinals at James Work Memorial Stadium in Doylestown, Pennsylvania on Saturday afternoon.
The win – the Golden Eagles' 13th straight – secures the Green and Gold a spot in next weekend's national semifinals against top-ranked University of Mary Hardin-Baylor.
Mary Hardin-Baylor, which has also won 13 consecutive games this season, defeated St. Thomas, 24-10, in its quarterfinal match-up earlier today. Mount Union and University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh also clinched spots in next weekend's semifinals by capturing their respective contests, too.
Per the Brockport Athletics' Twitter handle, this is the first-time in program history that the Golden Eagles have reached the national semifinals.
Brockport quarterback Joe Germinerio accounted for a trio of scores, including two rushing touchdowns, while Tyree Brown concluded the contest with 23 yards on five carries and one score, along with a reception for 16 yards.
The Golden Eagles led the Aggies, 21-7, at the break and 28-7 after three quarters before DelVal rallied with three consecutive fourth quarter touchdowns, including a pair of strikes from Dashawn Darden to Marquis Ellis, which evened the score at 28-28.
DelVal attempted to take the lead on its next two possessions, but saw both drives conclude with a punt from Stephen Adams.
Brockport would take over with 55 seconds remaining – they started their drive at the DelVal 48 – and would reach the 16 before sending in Renzi for the game-winning boot.
The loss snaps DelVal's 12-game winning streak, which included a pair of postseason victories over Husson University and Western New England.
Brockport has now won three-straight postseason games, including a second round victory over Wesley. The Golden Eagles began their quest for a national championship by defeating Plymouth State, 66-0, in the opening round.


I have the following method that sets up a kendo datasource and ties it to a pager and listview. As you'll see in the attached code, the pager itself is pretty bare bones, tie it to the datasource. The datasource sets the page size (10) and turns on serverside paging. Everything works great, until I try to page more than a certain, unknown, number of records. For example, with a page size of 10, I can break the pager by return 101 records. That initially led me to think maybe it was the idea of rendering more than 10 pages. Unfortunately, a page size of 100, and 1000 records also breaks. Any insight to what I am overlooking would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Your code looks OK. I am not sure where exactly the problem comes from.

5 Best Chrome Addons for Power Twitter User
In recent times, Twitter has become one of the most powerful Social media. The trending of the hashtags makes people know what is happening though they may not keep in track with the news. There are country-based trending hashtags and city-based trending hashtags. This analysis is of greater help to know about the country and the city too. When a user is tweeting he/she always wants his post to be observed by many people. Certain tools would help a Twitter user to make his/her or a company's post to reach many people.
Twitter Tool
Tweetdeck by Twitter
Chirp for Twitter
EmojiT
QualiTweet
A content that has the power to reach people's hearts is the best way to reach a lot of people. Since Twitter has got the feature of retweeting, people who love a post would retweet or and in this way the post will reach a lot of people through friends of friends. Thus a relevant content will reach its target audience. The Twitter tool is of greater help when it comes to scheduling of posts, to get better engagement by posting in the optimal time without having to switch between applications. The "Best Time" option in this app will automatically suggest the correct time to post to reach a greater audience.
Tweetdeck is a Google Chrome extension that is a boon to all the people who want to manage multiple Twitter accounts. It is a feature that is designed for social media managers, marketers, power users, and publishers which allows them to keep in track with the messages and news from all the accounts as well as in scheduling the tweets. Hence the feature allows the user to handle multiple accounts under a single dashboard with various customizations.
Twitter allows the character range of the captions to be less than 280. If the snippet that the user wants to share exceeds the limit then he/she can make use of this feature which is an extension from Google Chrome. This feature will allow the user to take a snapshot of the content that has exceeded the limit.

The user needs to select the text that has exceeded and it will automatically take a snapshot of it and will post it as a new tweet and the URL of the page. An additional feature is that the user can involve in conversations and reply to the comments without having to leave the page after using this feature.
Unlike Instagram and Facebook, Twitter does not have an emoji generator of its own. Generally, the users would copy-paste the emojis or send it as an image. Many of the users wanted the management to fix it. But still, it's not done yet. So for this purpose, the EmojiT will help to add the emoji to the posts of in comments without having to copy and paste. Many find this feature to be very interesting.
This will help the users to see what they only want to see. The unwanted tweets from various people will be filtered by the app. So the user need not spend much time in his/her feed which doesn't have posts on his relevant and necessary topics.
Hence by using some of the add-ons a power user or a blogger or a marketer can drive more traffic to their pages. This will help to connect with more like-minded people and get more online friends. It will help to optimize the Twitter pages and hence there need not be much time to spend on switching of pages or in replying to the comments or to keep on-trend. Also, these extensions are not only used to become a pro but it also helps the newbies of Twitter to know about the various options that Twitter provides its users.

Q: VBA Macro to Autofill a cell I am trying to find a simple autofill solution to copy the formula in cell C3 into C2 after a new line has been inserted. Here is what I have that I thought would work:
Sub AutoFill()
    Set SourceRange = Worksheets("Sheet 1").Range("C3")
    Set fillRange = Worksheets("Sheet 1").Range("C2")
    SourceRange.AutoFill Destination:=fillRange
End Sub

Basically, in C3 (and every cell in column C after row 3) has a average function that takes the previous 20 days and creates an average. I am trying to get the macro to input that formula everytime a new row gets put in (I have the code to input the new row it just won't apply the function after the new row comes in)

A:
The cells to be filled. The destination must include the source range.

As quoted from MSDN.
So try:
Set SourceRange = Worksheets("Sheet 1").Range("C3")
Set fillRange = Worksheets("Sheet 1").Range("C2")
SourceRange.AutoFill Destination:=Range(fillRange, SourceRange)

Another note is to use Named ranges if you are inserting rows in between.

A: Other ways to get formulas with updated cell references
Option Explicit

Public Sub getFormula()
    With Sheet1
        .Range("C3").Copy
        .Range("C2").PasteSpecial xlPasteFormulas

        If .ListObjects.Count = 1 Then
            With .ListObjects(1)        'for tables
                .Cells(2, 3).Formula = .Cells(3, 3).Formula
            End With
        End If
    End With
End Sub

.
Also, you should not use the name of VBA method as a sub name (AutoFill)

*

*A fast way to determine VBA keywords: click on the sub name and press F1
If the help page shows Keyword Not Found your sub name should be Ok

Army's response adequate, immediate and intense: Gen. Dalbir Singh
By IANS | Bharat Defence Kavach | Publish Date: 12/31/2016 11:39:58 AM
New Delhi: Outgoing Army chief General Dalbir Singh on Saturday said he had promised "more than adequate, immediate and intense" response to any action, and the Indian Army had delivered on it during the two and a half years he was at the helm.
He said that the Indian Army was fully prepared and well trained to undertake any challenge, be it external or internal.
As many as 141 terrorists were killed in Jammu and Kashmir this year alone, General Dalbir Singh said.
General Singh, who retired on Saturday, inspected a Guard of Honour on the lawns of the South Block in the morning, before handing over charge to his successor General Bipin Rawat.
Addressing the media, the outgoing General thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his government for giving the Army a "free hand" in conducting operations and also thanked the citizens for respecting the Army that boosted their morale.
General Singh saluted the martyrs who made the supreme sacrifice for the nation, the soldiers who serve in challenging areas like "Siachen, icy mountains, scorching deserts and dense forests" and those fighting insurgency and terrorism in the northeast and Jammu and Kashmir.
"I express my sincere gratitude to the honourable Prime Minister and the government for their full support and for giving free hand in conducting operations; for giving impetus to modernisation and for granting 'One Rank One Pension' to the ex-servicemen," General Singh said.
"I also thank the citizens of this country for supporting and respecting the soldiers which has enhanced the morale of the Indian Army immensely," he said.
"As you are aware, I have never given any TV interview because I strongly believe that actions must speak louder than words. The day I took over as Chief of the Army Staff I had said that our response to any action will be more than adequate, immediate and intense," he said.
General Singh, when he took over as the Army chief on August 1, 2014, had said India's response to any aggression from Pakistan will be "more than adequate".
"The Indian Army has delivered that in the last two and a half years. The Indian Army is the finest and the strongest Army in the world. Our leaders are most competent and unit leaders lead from the front and soldiers are bravest. I want to assure the nation that Indian Army is fully prepared, well trained to undertake any challenges, be it external or internal," he said.
General Singh said the focus of the Army was on operational preparedness and training during his headship.
Asked about the attacks like that in Uri, in which 19 soldiers were killed, and Nagrota, in which seven soldiers were killed, the outgoing Army chief said the attacks and infiltration have increased, but the Army has also killed double the number of terrorists compared with last year.
"We have displayed the power of firmness, resolve, ability and will power... as far as casualties are concerned, the infiltration attempts have increased. If we leave the casualties caused in those two incidents (Nagrota and Uri), the casualties are not so high," General Singh said.
"In 2012, we killed 67 terrorists, in 2013 we killed 65 terrorists... this year, only in Jammu and Kashmir, we have killed 141 terrorists. There are more incidents of infiltration, but we have killed more terrorists, almost double the number," he added.

Reforming The FEC: Effective Commissioners Are Needed
By Trevor Potter
Law360 (October 26, 2020, 6:09 PM EDT) -- As Election Day nears, former commissioners of the Federal Election Commission discuss the biggest issues facing the FEC, which has been without a quorum since July.
Trevor Potter
The Federal Election Commission, enacted in 1974 as the cornerstone of the post-Watergate reforms, is the sole federal agency tasked with overseeing federal campaign finance laws. It was designed to be independent, responsive and effective. Today's FEC does not meet those goals.
For its first 25 years, the agency was at least reasonably energetic and effective in enforcing campaign finance law and writing new regulations responsive to changes in our electoral system. Thereafter, the commission began a steady slide into the practically defunct organization that it is today.
Since 2012, the FEC has issued one substantive new regulation: REG 2014-02, regarding how to report multistate independent expenditures and electioneering communications.[1]
Despite their dominance in our current state of politics, super PACs are still not even mentioned in FEC rules. The commission now deadlocks on the majority of important enforcement matters — that is, when it even has a quorum; the FEC has been without one for 12 of the past 13 months, unable to vote on anything substantive in the middle of a presidential election cycle.
This is the height of dysfunction. The FEC's complete inaction poses a severe threat to our democracy, but some congressional leaders want it to be this way. Commissioners are nominated by the president and confirmed by the Senate, and over the past two decades, Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky, and like-minded allies have prioritized confirming commissioners who are ideologically opposed to the mission of the agency in order to render it inoperative.
The strategy came at the suggestion of Don McGhan, according to former FEC Commissioner Ann Ravel. Around 2005, he suggested to McConnell that by appointing a bloc of Republican commissioners opposed to campaign finance law, he could ensure nothing got done.[2] McGhan was appointed, along with two other commissioners, and they proved the plan of action effective.
Since, McConnell has been deeply involved in personally selecting FEC nominees: According to a former chief of staff, of all the agencies where McConnell vetted nominees, "the one that I know of where McConnell himself interviewed every single person was the FEC."[3]
The result has been an FEC where half of the commissioners are committed to dismantling everything that the agency stands for.
It hasn't always worked like this. When I was on the commission from 1991 to 1995, other commissioners and I would disagree from time to time on how to enforce the law, but we did agree that it was the FEC's job to faithfully implement and uphold campaign finance laws passed by Congress. In fact, I can only recall one instance during the four years I served on the commission where we deadlocked.
Contrast that with today. Though the U.S. Supreme Court's 2010 decision in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission actually upheld disclosure laws, the FEC has deadlocked on every proposed disclosure rulemaking since the landmark campaign finance decision.
After Citizens United, the FEC took more than four years to agree on any regulatory action; the Democratic commissioners wanted to implement the disclosure part of the Citizens United opinion, and the Republicans refused to do so — they insisted on only removing the ban on corporate expenditures from the regulations, but did not allow a word on implementing the opinion's mandate for disclosure.
The FEC's enforcement responsibilities are suffering, too. In order to take action on investigating or punishing a candidate or group's violation of campaign finance law, the agency requires a majority vote.
The FEC admitted to the committee on House administration that the agency had at least one deadlock on the majority of enforcement votes since 2012.[4] The FEC does not just occasionally deadlock; it mostly does. Not only this, but the FEC is holding fewer votes in the first place: Between 2003 and 2007, the FEC averaged 727 votes on enforcement actions per year. Between 2008 and 2015, that number dropped to 183.[5]
The FEC's dysfunction has led to an explosion in secret spending, increasingly rigging campaign finance in favor of special interests. This election cycle, political spending by dark money groups — groups that do not have to disclose their donors — is set to exceed $1 billion in known expenditures.[6]
The true number is clearly significantly higher than that, as these entities face significantly less stringent requirements on digital platforms. Our politicians have become more responsive to those major sources of election finance than they are to average Americans, and the FEC, rather than resist this trend and faithfully administer federal campaign finance law's transparency requirements, has instead paved the way for so-called dark money.
An August decision from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit highlights this.
In Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington v. FEC, the court affirmed that FEC rules impermissibly allowed groups to spend large sums of money in federal elections without disclosing critical information about their funders. In issuing a win for transparency, the court's decision also demonstrates that the FEC bears much of the blame for the explosion of dark money we've seen since Citizens United.
Though the FEC's disclosure rule was on the books far before Citizens United was decided, the implications of the rule changed drastically when the landmark 2010 decision ushered in a new era of secret election spending. As a result, the FEC's narrow rule allowed up to $769 million in dark money to flow into our elections between 2010 and mid-2018,[7] and the FEC did nothing — despite many groups urging the FEC to address the problem.
The consequences of FEC dysfunction are grave and have fast-tracked the unraveling of our country's campaign finance infrastructure enabled by detrimental Supreme Court decisions. That being said, there are attainable measures we can take to reform the FEC and hold dark money groups accountable.
Congress can take the critical step to address structural barriers to FEC accountability. Legislation to do this has already passed the House: H.R. 1, the For the People Act, includes several FEC reforms.
It would amend the law so that a deadlock would no longer block Office of General Counsel recommendations to open investigations into alleged violations of law.
It would also change the number of commissioners from six to five to prevent deadlocks, and it would create a nonpartisan advisory panel to identify qualified candidates for the president's potential nominations, so that the president is encouraged to select commissioners who believe in the mission of the FEC get to serve.
Passing H.R. 1 is a necessary step toward a better functioning FEC, but the president need not wait for Congress. The simplest way to make the FEC functional again is for a president to nominate, and for the Senate to confirm, commissioners of any party who believe in the agency's mission.
Recent administrations, both Democratic and Republican, have not prioritized the nomination of committed FEC commissioners but instead have deferred to party leaders in Congress, but any president has the authority to use good nominations to strengthen the FEC.
There is no shortage of opportunities to appoint such commissioners: The FEC currently only has three out of six of the authorized commissioners, two of whom are serving expired terms. Both candidates should not only commit to restoring the agency to a quorum, but to nominating only candidates with a record and background demonstrating commitment to the enforcement of duly enacted campaign finance laws and regulations that protect the transparency and fairness of our elections.
American voters across the political spectrum consistently rate corruption in the political spectrum among their top concerns facing our democracy. It's past time for our elected officials to stop undermining the will of the people by refusing to appoint and confirm commissioners who will uphold the law. The FEC must be reformed to stop corruption and protect the voices of all Americans.

Will new texting law change people's behavior?
This is the week we begin to learn whether Utah drivers are smart enough to claim they were merely looking at their phone's GPS app when an officer pulls them over on suspicion of texting while driving.
That would get them off, but I'm guessing most people who such things are too, well, distracted to pay attention to the news.
Before this week, all a driver had to do was deny texting. "Officer, I was merely changing my Facebook status," was good enough.
Now, the allowable excuses are pretty much down to one — using a GPS.
The irony, of course, is that looking at a GPS app while driving is likely just as dangerous as texting.
"There are lots of things we could ban if we wanted to be perfectly safe," Sen. Stephen Urquhart acknowledged when I reached him by phone this week. A Republican from St. George, he was the sponsor of the law that took effect this week — a law that punishes people with a $100 fine if police catch them driving and using their phones for anything other than talking or looking at a virtual map of the street on which they are weaving.
Urquhart's reasoning is that he believes it's also dangerous to have people driving around lost, slowing down to look at street signs or doing other obnoxious maneuvers we tend to do when searching for the right way.
And, let's face it, looking at a GPS isn't much different from looking at a map, and who hasn't done that?
Not that a weaving map-reader headed your way is supposed to make you feel any better than a weaving GPS-reader.
If there is such a thing as a First World problem, distracted driving would qualify. It is the latest plague to hit roadways, fueled by a combination of wealth and a general obsession with instant communication and constant entertainment. But it also should be kept in perspective.
Traffic fatalities nationwide have dropped to levels not seen since the late 1940s. In Utah, we had 217 deaths in 2012, which was the lowest number since 1959. That rose slightly last year to 219. But of course it is little consolation to the relative of one of the deceased to know fatalities are down. Any death is one too many, and any death from distracted driving is galling in its careless disregard.
The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration says 71 percent of young people admit to composing text messages while driving, while 78 percent admit to having read such a message. Some will justify this by saying they hold the phone up to eye level in order to keep one eye on the road, which is about as ridiculous as it sounds.
The question, however, is whether Utah's new law will be the thing that makes us all safer.
About eight years ago, researchers at the U of U concluded that merely talking on the phone, even hands-free, made drivers about as safe as if they were drunk. But then, texting drivers are likely as safe as drunk drivers who also have passed out.
"I'm not completely confident we have struck the right balance," Urquhart said, adding that lawmakers may have to fine-tune the law in the future.
This is a great age. Time travelers from the 1950s would be astounded to know people today carry devices that instantly connect them to a vast store of all the world's information. But they might be dismayed to know many people use the devices to watch cat videos and send instant telegrams to their friends all day.
Humans are complex. That makes changing their behavior equally complex. Unless someone invents a GPS app that can map out exactly how to do that, I'll remain a hopeful skeptic.

Women Carving Out Their Own Space in the Cannabis Conversation
Katie Pringle knew long before she got into the cannabis industry herself that its culture did not cater particularly well to women.
But as she prepared to conduct focus groups last year ahead of launching her own female-focused cannabis company, even she was surprised by how poorly women were served in the market.
She went to a head shop — a store that sells pipes, bongs and other paraphernalia related to marijuana use — and asked the clerk for their "most beautiful" smell-free jar, something the 34-year-old communications and marketing professional wouldn't mind displaying in her home.
"He brought me a Budweiser stash can," she said, laughing. That is, a storage container intentionally made to look like a beer can. "There wasn't much out there that was really catered towards women, or even men who were interested in more elegant things."
Pringle, who last year co-founded Canndora, which sells cannabis accessories "for elevated women," discussed this and other issues as part of a women's panel discussion at HempFest Toronto's Cannabis Expo on Sunday afternoon inside the Queen Elizabeth Building at Exhibition Place.
Another panelist, Sabrina Ramkellawan, president of the Clinical Research Association of Canada, spoke about the male bias present in much clinical research, including around cannabis. Ramkellawan, who specializes in cannabinoid research, said women absorb cannabis differently than men.
"Our bodies are different, our metabolisms are different, our muscle mass is different," she said.
Women also have higher rates of some of the conditions commonly treated by cannabis, such as migraine headaches, anxiety and various sleep disorders, Ramkellawan said.
"Women aren't just looking for something that is packaged small and pink with a bow on it. We're really looking for products that can help us."
Recreational cannabis becomes legal in Canada on Oct. 17 for those 19 and older.
Initially, the only legal outlet in Ontario will be the government-run Ontario Cannabis Store's website. Pot sales at private retail outlets are scheduled to begin next April. Ontarians will also be able to legally grow up to four plants per household, but the sale of edibles and cannabis concentrates, such as CBD oil, will not be legal until Oct. 17 of next year.
As the approaching legalization has led to the mainstreaming of cannabis, the industry, particularly at the executive level, started to look as male-dominated as other corporate sectors, Pringle said. But she doesn't think women are being pushed out.
"I think the pie is really big," she said, adding women are in the best position to know what other women want from a consumer perspective. "Women are looking for brands they trust, they're looking for brands with good reputations that represent who they are and have similar values to who they are."
Legalization is also aiding the destigmatization of cannabis use, particularly among women, Pringle said. Her company isn't the only one filling the gap in the cannabis marketplace for women with discerning tastes. Hemlock Rose, an online store with a feminine esthetic, sells "a thoughtfully curated selection of design-focused smokeware to complement an elevated lifestyle."
In Vancouver, meanwhile, a social club called The Green Hat Society describes itself as "an unofficial sisterhood for women over 50 who enjoy cannabis."
Pringle said in addition to offering women cannabis accessories better suited to them, her company also aims to provide a sense of community. Their website, for example, includes blogs on letting go of "Mom guilt" around cannabis use, cannabis-related recipes and answers to questions about cannabis legislation.
"Women are looking for community and opportunity to have that dialogue."

Buy Lighted Reading Glasses online and never worry about poor lighting again. These are cheap practical stylish reading glasses.
Having a pair of lighted reading glasses is not such a bad thing. You do not have to keep the lights on as you read in the night, restaurant menus are no longer an issue, in fact any situation which places you in poor light or with low vision issues is now fixed by these cool reading glasses. These eyeglasses have LED lights on the temples that are battery powered meaning you do not have to worry that the power will run out.
Once you have the eyeglasses on, the light turns toward the point you are looking at. Despite this lighting capability, the frame is light and it will not cause discomfort. The strengths of the eyeglasses vary because it targets a wide market of people with different needs.
Black framed light specs by Foster Grant with +2.00 cost about $30. This pair has lights on either side and the battery can serve you for 50 hours. The black color on the frame makes it one of the favorites because black matches with most skin tones in case you want a pair you can use in public when the lighting is not sufficient.
The design adopts a modern style with the temples taking the size of the edges of the eye rims and reducing towards the temple tips. This funky look is stylish and different from other conventional eyewear.
You can also settle for the LED lighted reading glasses that come in a tortoise colored frame. This pair has rectangular eye rims with the lights positioned on the upper corners of the temples.
The tortoise color is becoming popular with eyeglasses because it is classy and slightly subdued giving the wearer a unique style. There are so many other colors and designs such as the Gerson I-lights night readers that come in tortoise and Burgundy with different magnification sizes. The average cost for such pairs is around $16 and this provides a variety a person can consider. There is no restriction on the design a person can go for.
Innovation has extended creativity and some of the modern eyewear designs have decorative embellishments or different types of frames unlike in the past. For instance, the half rimmed and rimless pairs also look stylish and they come with the lights too. One of such pairs has refractive lenses and a plastic frame. It comes in +1.50, +2.00 and +2.50 strengths. The cost of this pair is about $40.
In addition, you can settle for Illumineyes readers that have rimless lenses attached to thick black temples. The bridge curves outward giving more space for the nose bridge. The batteries powering the lights are positioned on the temple tips and the lights angle, as expected, to focus on your documents.
This is a great way to magnify the size of the print while shedding more light on them, which is not common with the normal types of readers. Lighted reading glasses are paving the way for advanced technology in eyewear that will come up with products that offer more solutions apart from providing the magnification strengths needed to assist the wearer.
