Extractions: Ongoing AMD Studies Supported by the NEI The Senate Appropriations Committee, in its report accompanying the fiscal year 1997 Appropriations Bill, has requested a report from the National Eye Institute (NEI). The Committee has urged the NEI to "accelerate and encourage research in age-related macular degeneration (AMD)," and has asked NEI to provide a status report on research and prospects for the future. AMD is a common eye disease of the macula, a tiny area in the retina that helps produce sharp, central vision required for "straight ahead" activities such as reading, sewing, and driving. A person with AMD loses this clear, central vision; in some cases, vision loss is rapid and dramatic. AMD is a leading cause of severe visual impairment and blindness in the United States. It is estimated that AMD already causes visual impairment in approximately 1.7 million of the 34 million Americans over age 65.

Extractions: It is hard to realise that the electron was only discovered a little over 100 years ago in 1897. That it was not expected is illustrated by a remark made by J J Thomson, the discoverer of the electron. He said I was told long afterwards by a distinguished physicist who had been present at my lecture that he thought I had been pulling their leg. The neutron was not discovered until 1932 so it is against this background that we trace the beginnings of quantum theory back to 1859. In 1859 Gustav Kirchhoff proved a theorem about blackbody radiation. A blackbody is an object that absorbs all the energy that falls upon it and, because it reflects no light, it would appear black to an observer. A blackbody is also a perfect emitter and Kirchhoff proved that the energy emitted E depends only on the temperature T and the frequency v of the emitted energy, i.e. E J T v He challenged physicists to find the function J In 1879 Josef Stefan proposed, on experimental grounds, that the total energy emitted by a hot body was proportional to the fourth power of the temperature. In the generality stated by Stefan this is false. The same conclusion was reached in 1884 by

Extractions: You can get paid to receive ads on your mobile, but it might burst the spam dam, writes Nicole Manktelow. It's just 160 characters on a tiny screen, but in the mobile phone world, that's all you need for some unusual moneymaking opportunities. If you thought you'd seen enough advertising for one lifetime, think again - mobile entrepreneurs are moving to pay mobile phone users for the right to send them SMS advertising. Despite its brazen name, Mark Read's business, MakeMoneyWithSMS.com ( www.makemoneywithsms.com ) is no scam, according to the Blue Mountains-based businessman. Read's service allows mobile phone users to sign up to receive advertisements on their handsets, in exchange for a five-cent payment per ad-message. "I have several nieces and nephews and their parents were complaining about the costs of their phones. So this service is targeted at teenagers, although anyone can use it. "As soon as a message is sent, I credit the recipients. If a member has $20 or more in their account it is directly deposited into the bank account of their choice. It could be the account of the person who pays the phone bills, such as their mum and dad, or perhaps a charity."

Directed by one of the greatest directors of our time, Martin Scorsese, it is a brilliant adaptation of Edith Wharton's Pulitzer-Prize-winning novel.
