Escapade Fancy Dress to Give Away One Free Costume a Month to a Lucky Customer in 2011

Escapade Fancy Dress launches a new competition that will see one lucky customer win a free fancy dress costume each month in 2011.

2010-12-31
LONDON, ENGLAND, December 31, 2010 (Press-News.org) Escapade Fancy Dress has announced that it will give away one free costume a month during 2011 to a lucky customer. The promotion will commence in December 2010 and will run recurring throughout each month of 2011, with the winner being announced on the last Thursday of each month.

In order to be entered into the competition, customers need to submit a review of their costume or a picture of them wearing it to the Escapade website. When they receive their review email from Escapade, they will be automatically entered into a draw to win back the cost of their costume.

Each review or picture provided will be assigned a random number and Escapade will use a random number generator to pick the winning review each month for one lucky customer.

The winners of the competition will have their reviews or pictures placed on a monthly winner's page which will be updated every month throughout 2011.

Director of Escapade, Bhupendra Maisuria said: "We want to make sure that our customers have enjoyed their costumes and that they are satisfied with their purchase. We've already had great feedback and this will help us decide what we will offer in 2011. Throughout 2011 we are offering each person who buys a costume with us the chance to win back the cost of that costume, just for sending us a few pictures or writing a review. It's our way of saying thank you for their loyal custom."

Escape is keen to receive feedback and honest reviews on its costumes and is offering customers the chance to be rewarded for sharing their opinions.

Bulb dipping controls Easter lily growth

2010-12-30
WEST LAFAYETTE, IN – In a recent issue of HortTechnology, Purdue University researchers Christopher J. Currey and Roberto G. Lopez reported on a study of the effects of a technique called "bulb dipping" on Easter lily. While plant growth retardants (PGRs) are commonly applied as sprays or media drenches, bulb crops can be submerged, or "dipped" in PGR solutions before planting. The experiments were designed to determine if dipping Easter lily bulbs in paclobutrazol solutions would produce a commercially acceptable product. Study results were encouraging; the researchers ...

High nitrogen fertilizers tested on post-transplant ornamentals

2010-12-30
DAVIE, FL – The nutrition and fertilization needs of container-grown ornamental plants during production are well-documented, but there is limited research about the plants' fertilizer requirements following transplantation into landscapes. A study from scientists at the University of Florida published in HortTechnology provides growers with new information and guidelines for post-transplant fertilization. Timothy K. Broschat and Kimberly Anne Moore reported on a study designed to determine if increasing the nitrogen content of fertilizers applied to transplanted container-grown ...

How does your green roof garden grow?

2010-12-30
UNIVERSITY PARK, PA -- Growing plants on rooftops is an old concept that has evolved from simple sod roofing to roof gardens and new, lightweight "extensive green roofs". Modern green roofs have environmental and social benefits; they can reduce stormwater runoff, improve air quality, mitigate urban heat, reduce the demand for air conditioning and greenhouse gas emissions, and provide habitat for birds and wildlife. Long-used in urban planning in Europe, green roofs are becoming more popular in North America, and new research designed to promote the integration of green ...

Uncovering the neurobiological basis of general anesthesia

2010-12-30
The use of general anesthesia is a routine part of surgical operations at hospitals and medical facilities around the world, but the precise biological mechanisms that underlie anesthetic drugs' effects on the brain and the body are only beginning to be understood. A review article in the December 30 New England Journal of Medicine brings together for the first time information from a range of disciplines, including neuroscience and sleep medicine, to lay the groundwork for more comprehensive investigations of processes underlying general anesthesia. "A key point of ...

Doctors should be required to disclose sleep deprived status to patients before elective surgeries

2010-12-30
While regulations have been put in place to restrict the work hours of doctors in training, no such regulations exist for fully trained physicians. An editorial in this week's New England Journal of Medicine argues that sleep-deprived physicians should not be permitted to proceed with an elective surgery without a patient's informed, written consent. According to the authors, "This approach would represent a fundamental shift in the responsibility patients are asked to assume in making decisions about their own care and might prove burdensome to patients and physicians ...

Team-based approach to care shows success in fight against depression with diabetes, heart disease

2010-12-30
SEATTLE—Many people in the U.S. have multiple common chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease, which complicates health care needs. When depression coexists with diabetes, heart disease, or both, health outcomes are often less favorable. In a randomized controlled trial, testing a primary care intervention called TEAMcare, nurses worked with patients and health teams to manage care for depression and physical disease together, using evidence-based guidelines. The result for patients: less depression, and better control of blood sugar, blood pressure and cholesterol ...

Trace amounts of microbe-killing molecules predict chronic granulomatous disease survival

2010-12-30
Investigators at the National Institutes of Health have observed that the survival rate of people with a rare immunodeficiency disease called chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is greatly improved when even very low levels of microbe-killing molecules are present. Because production of these molecules, made by an enzyme called NADPH oxidase, can be predicted from genetic analysis, a patient's risk for severe CGD could be assessed very early in life, allowing for more personalized treatment, say the researchers. The study was conducted at the NIH Clinical Center and ...
