Ledge said he would make a detailed reply early next week. Vishinsky charged the United States and its atomic partners reduced the original Eisenhower proposal to a mere shell by: ' 1.

BLAKESLEE AP Science Reporter NEW YORK (fP) — One of the most sensational reports of danger in cigarettes came last June with announcement of findings in the American Cancer Society's big statistical study. Oddly, many people apparently missed one of its most significant findings its evidence that cigarette smoking stepped up the risk of heait attacks. This aspect, new to most people could have been overlooked in concern over cancer. In main essence, this study found: Men, aged 50 to 70, who smobe a pack of cigarettes or more daily run about twice the risk of heart disease and cancer as nonsmokers. Smokers run more risk not cnly of lung cancer, but other forms of cancer. Heavy cigarette smoking might 'cut an" average of seven years ; from ,the. life,span.... This study, headed by Doctors E. Cuyler Hammond and Daniel Horn, attracted attention because it was based upon interviews with seme $180,000 men about their smoking habits, then checks to learn what they died of later. Said Dr. Hammond, who switched from chain-smoking cigarette to a pipe: Clear to Cloudy for SMU Game LITTLE ROCK W T U. S. Weather- Bureau to I Found Baptist Out About Preacher." A Certain Tomorrow (Sunday) there will be no services cer. in the Hall at 11 a. m. but the party will appear in the First Methodist Church to sing for the Bible Class at 10 a. m. after which they will go to Texarkana to conduct • their television service over KCMC- TV Channel 6 from 11 a. m. to 12 noon. ff». A Big Mass meeting will be held *" in the City Hall Auditorium at 2:30 p. m. when Comer says he will discuss the timely message on] "Will Russia Invade America, If So When And Where? What does the Bible say about the Atomic Bomb? Will Russia use it? these and many other phases will be discussed he says in this service. All pastors in and around Hope and their congregations are specially f ,. invited for this hour. v He states that the services on Sunday night will be held at 8 p. m. instead of 7:30 so that those going to their Churches can come to the Hall. He will preach on, "When Chickens Come Home To Roost." Services will continue all next week nightly at 7:30 p. m. He states that the crowd's have been increasing with each service.

He has proposed a "time-eraser" which woul d aut omatically remove remaining meter time when a car leaves a parking space. Again, there are many medical men who do not agree with Hammond that cigarettes play any great role in contributing to heart attacks. It has alotng been known that smoking can make tiny blood vessels narrow down, kick up pulse rate and blood pressure. Nicotine is usually blamed for this.

Apparently the announcements of cigarette-danger studies have knocked co n s u m pt i o n down to some degree, and have been an impetus for greater sales of filter cigarettes. They have persuaded some people to stop smoking, at least temporarily. A number have switched to cigars or pipes, since the cancer society study has so far at least found litle risk in them. On the other hand, a • few surveys or observations do not find pipes and cigars as free of indicated hazard as the cancer society study does. Clearly, one effect is that most Americans are aware of the questioning over cigarettes. New bits of news, pro or con, are coming egularly. A month ago, the Public Health Cancer Assn., a small organizn- ion of cancer speciaists in pubic health responsibilities, by a 13-' vote atopted a resolution advising the public to stop smoking as a way to reduce lung cancer deaths, and suggesting that youths ponder whether the risks in smok- rig were worth the pleasure, Some authorities now term cigarettes "a major factor in causing" lung cancer. The New Eng land Journal •->£ Medicine has said editorial ly t hat the evidence amounts to "proof within the or dinary moaning of the word." But other autnorities—physicians and scientists 1 say a link is py no means proved.

"Both Gable and Bogart are over the hill romantically but don't know it" stormed handsome Bill Campbell 28 in an unusually frank interview. Gable and Bogart are 53. Campbell held that over-age Romeos last on the screen because of what he called ,'a perversion of the Hollywood star system. "most of the leading women are 35 and then some" he said. "Yet they demand that ihe makeup deparmtcnt work miracles so they can keep on looking 21 year after year.

M.iss Pickford, known to an early ;eneration as "America's sweet- leait," disclosed yesterday that he fire department had given her carbogen, an oxygen mixture, for 22 minutes Monday. However, she insisted that her jilment was not serious, hut merely 'an attack of indigestion from eating enchiladas, which I love." She added that she was in good nealth. The former actress said the trouble brought on a "case of nerves" which upset her husband, Charles (Buddy) Rogers, and he called the fire department when her doctor did not arrive at once. Democrats were openly pessimistic 'about their chances of blocking a speedup recommended by Presi ednt Eisenhower and the Atomic Energy Commission. The issue at a closed committee session: Whether to waive a 30-day period in which the next Congress — a Democratic Congress — could study the contract, signed this week by the AEC and the Dixon-Yates power group. Republican committee members had the votes to put the waiver through and said they were ready to use them, regardless of Demo cratic demands that more witnesses be heard. The 500-m511ion-dollar contract calls for DixonYatps to build a 107-million-dollar generating plant at West Memphis. Ark., to supply the Tennessee Valley Authority with' private power to replace TVA energy now used by EC.

Sheppard cooperate with police in their investigation of his wife's slaying July 4V The state contends that he gave them very little help, that his brothers hurried him away to hospital seclusion, that he refused to take a lie detector test and that he later clammed up under police questioning. Through one of the state's own witnesses, the defense made a strong effort at Dr. Shepipard's murder trial yesterday to knock down/, that contention. The witness was Fred Drenkhnn, a good-looking police officer from suburban Bay Village, where th.2 murder occurred. Drenkhan, who appeared to have a mental filing cabinet, had been a good witness for the state. The chief defense attoreny. William J. Corrigan. took pver on cross-examination.

Remember. those stirring battle cries of other years, "Keep Kins George out of Chicago," and "Pass the biscuit s. pa py"? A voting place is a luxury.

US Fracking and LNG production could save tens of thousands of lives in China by displacing coal

US Natural gas fracking is enabling the boom in natural gas production and will be building up liquid natural gas imports to tens of millions of tons over the next few years.

China will increase natural gas imports and this will offset about 15% of coal power generation. Natural gas has about half the air pollution as coal. This would mean about an 8% reduction in energy production air pollution for China.

China air pollution causes an estimated 1.6 million premature deaths a year according to U.S.-based Health Effects Institute.

An 8% reduction in air pollution should have some an effect on air quality and save tens of thousands of lives each year. If it was a linear effect it would save about 130,000 lives each year.

Natural Gas displacing coal power

Replacing the electricity generation provided by 1 gigawatt of coal in China would require the installation of 2.3 GW of wind or 4.5 GW of solar or 1.0 GW of natural gas.

In 2010 China imported 10 million metric tons (mtpa) of LNG and 20 mtpa in 2015.
In 2017, China imported almost 40 mtpa.
In the first four months of 2018 imports hit 15.75 million metric tons (which could reach 50 million metric tons for 2018.

China has 17 LNG import terminals with a combined capacity of 7.4 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d). China LNG import terminal capacity will grow to 11.2 Bcf/d by 2021 according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

By 2035 China is forecasted to import 200 mtpa. In 2017, the global LNG trade amounted to 294 mtpa.

A one-gigawatt natural gas power plant would use to 0.168 BCF / day at peak. This is 3,500 tonnes of LNG per day. 1.28 million tons per year.

China’s 50 million tons of imports would offset about 39 GW of coal production.

China’s installed coal-based electrical capacity was 907 GW, or 77% of the total electrical capacity, in 2014.

China increasing to 200 million tons of natural gas imports per year would allow 120 GW less coal power.

US LNG Export Facilities

In 2019 shipments will begin from the USA Cameron LNG export facility. The Gulf Coast facility will bring three production units online by the early 2020’s capable of exporting 15 mtpa, or a little over 2 Bcf per day. This will be valued at over $10 billion. Two more production units could increase the facility’s total export volume to 25 mtpa, or 3.5 Bcf/d.

Pembina Pipeline (NYSE:PBA – Canadian company) bought the Jordon Cove LNG project in Oregon in late 2017. Increased demand in China and Japan might ensure the 1 Bcf/d project is built.

Delfin LNG recently had a floating LNG facility in the Gulf of Mexico approved by regulators, which could boast 13 mtpa (1.8 Bcf/d) of LNG export capacity and start shipments by 2022.

EAST HAMPTON -- The reigning state champions have been there before.

East Hampton's baseball team found itself locked in another tight game Friday afternoon, this time with Shoreline Conference foe Haddam-Killingworth. But this is old stuff to the Bellringers. Nine times they have been involved in one- or two-run games, two of which went to extra innings. Been there, done that, know what to do.

What the Bellringers did was find a way to score a single run in the bottom of the seventh for a 1-0, walk-off win at East Hampton High.

"We've played a lot of close games," said East Hampton coach Scott Wolslager. "Our guys are used to them, We have that core of guys who have been through a state championship run, so a game like this doesn't faze them."

The Easties also survived a zany fifth inning in which they got three runners on with one out, but because of some dreadful baserunning, nobody scored. Joe Tuxbury got picked off first and Matt Sevigny was out from here to there trying to go from first to third on a single to right by pinch-hitter Steve Peltier. No matter. Didn't faze 'em. Bellringers went to the seventh and won it.

Spencer Daly led the inning with a base hit and after Ryan Massie failed to bunt and struck out, Tuxbury singled to right center sending Daly to third. Haddam-Killingworth then gambled by playing the infield back for a double play, but Woslager one-upped H-K coach Mark Brookes.

"We saw that, so I pinch-hit Zac [Harrington] whom I knew would get the bat on the ball," he said. "We had Spencer take an aggressive lead off third. He was going to go on contact. I thought it was a gutsy move on their part to play the infield back, but I thought we could score on a ground ball."

That's what happened.

Harrington hit a slow roller towards second and as soon as the ball was hit, second baseman Brian Moskey, playing back remember, had no chance to get the runner. He bobbled the ball, but it made no difference. Fielder's choice, RBI, ball game.

"It's a tough loss," said Brookes, whose team had a chance to score in the top of the seventh. "They play the game intelligently and I respect that."

Brookes lamented the hard luck of his starting pitcher, Wes Nuhn.

"Tough luck Wes is what he is," said Brookes. "We just don't score for him. He lost a walk-off in Ellington, lost another close game and now this. He's 1-3, but his ERA is great and he certainly didn't look like a 1-3 pitcher today."

He did not.

In 6 1/3 innings, Nuhn allowed five hits, struck out four and walked two. Enough to win most days, but this was not most days. That's because of Eastie pitcher Adam Michaud.

"He struggled his last two outings," said Woslager. "So we spent about four hours looking at film of when he was successful early and then his last two. We thought we saw something and he bought into it completely. He pitched to contact and let his defense work for him. He competes, we know that, and today he was very good. Our infield played very well behind him, too."

East Hampton made no errors and Michaud threw 10 ground balls.

Michaud allowed just one hit, a single to Matt Sturman in the second inning. He struck out seven, walked four, two of them intentionally. His biggest strikeout came in the seventh, stranding H-K runners on first and third.

In that inning, Dan Kovach led with a walk. Sturman's bouncer to the right side moved him to second and that's when Brookes called for the unconventional one-out bunt to move Kovach to third. The bunt worked, then Aiden Grealish was intentionally walked. But with runners on first and third, Michaud blew Andrew Mead away, getting second and third called strikes on fastballs.

"Nuhn was great," said Brookes. "The fault lies with the offense. We just don't score any runs for him."

On this day, Michaud had a bit to do with that.

East Hampton is 13-4 and H-K fell to 10-5.

Organic milk 'is healthier' than conventional milk, study says

Wednesday February 17 2016

"Organic meat and milk could offer health benefits, study suggests," The Guardian reports.

The news is the conclusion of two reviews looking at the available evidence on the potential benefits of organic meat and milk compared to their conventionally-farmed counterparts. We decided to focus our efforts on the milk review, as it is the larger of the two studies.

The study found some differences in nutrient levels. While organic milk had more omega-3 fatty acids, linked to improved heart health, and was slightly higher in iron and vitamin E, it also had lower levels of iodine and selenium. Iodine is needed by the body to produce the thyroid hormone, and selenium helps to protect against cell damage.

Overall levels of saturated fat did not differ between the two production methods.

Importantly, we do not know if any of these results would actually have a significant impact on long-term health outcomes. Studies looking at this, such as a cohort or randomised study, would be required to provide some sort of answer.

In many cases, people prefer organic food and drinks for environmental and animal welfare reasons, so health issues may not be that important to them.

Where did the story come from?

The study was carried out by researchers from a large number of universities and research institutes across Europe, including Newcastle University, the Norwegian Institute for Biochemistry Research and Warsaw University of Life Sciences.

It was funded by the European Community and the Sheepdrove Trust. The latter is a charity that supports research into organic farming practices.

The study was published in the peer-reviewed British Journal of Nutrition on an open-access basis, so it is free to read online (PDF, 1.6Mb).

The UK media was split in its reaction. The Daily Telegraph reported that the study "sparked a row among nutritionists," some of whom claimed the results "stretch credibility". The Mail Online was uncritical of the study, saying it "found clear differences" between organic and conventional food, calling it a "landmark study". The Metro was also uncritical, suggesting that if you buy organic you could "give yourself a pat on the back".

The Guardian and The Independent took a more neutral viewpoint, providing quotes from the researchers, as well as critics of the research.

What kind of research was this?

This was a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies comparing the nutritional content of organically-produced and conventionally-produced fresh milk. The meta-analysis only looked at cows' milk, although the study as a whole reported on results from some trials on sheep, goat and buffalo milk.

Standard systematic review and meta-analysis techniques were used. However, all the included studies were considered to be at high or unclear risk of bias because they didn't report results or methods in full, or didn't give enough detail about possible confounding factors. This reduces the reliability of the results.

Ultimately systematic reviews and meta-analyses are only as good as the information you feed into them.

What did the research involve?

The researchers looked for studies published from 1992 (when legal standards for farms describing themselves as organic were introduced into the EU) and 2014. They pooled the data to get average figures, looking at specific nutrient levels in organic and non-organic fresh cows' milk.

They tested the results for reliability and came up with percentage differences for organic and non-organic milk.

The researchers also carried out a study to identify what might have caused the differences in nutrient levels. They used data from a big European farm survey to identify the practices linked to composition of organic and conventional milk.

They also investigated what other factors could have influenced their results, including geographical differences that could affect (for example) the nutrients in grass.

What were the basic results?

The main result that researchers found was a higher level of certain fatty acids – linked to better heart health – in organic milk. While levels of saturated fat and monounsaturated fat were about the same, organic milk contained slightly higher polyunsaturated fatty acid levels, including, on average:

  • 56% more omega-3 fatty acid than conventionally-produced milk (95% confidence interval (CI) 38 to 74%)
  • 69% more alpha-linoleic acid (95% CI 53 to 84%)
  • 41% more conjugated linoleic acid (95% CI 14 to 68%); however, the effects of conjugated linoleic acid on human health are unclear from research

Looking at vitamins and minerals, the researchers found slightly higher levels of vitamin E and iron, but lower levels of iodine and selenium. Milk is not a major source of iron or vitamin E in the diet.

The researchers said that results varied a lot by country or geographic region. They said differences in cows' food explained much of the difference in nutritional levels, with more grazing on grass and silage (as is more common in organically-reared cattle) linked to higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids.

How did the researchers interpret the results?

The researchers said their results showed that switching from conventional to organic dairy farming, "will result in substantive improvements in milk fat composition," although they admit there are "virtually no studies in which the impacts of organic food consumption on animal or human health were assessed".

They said the results suggested that people wishing to increase their consumption of omega-3 fatty acids could switch to organic milk as a "complementary dietary approach". They say drinking the equivalent of half a litre of full-fat organic milk would provide an estimated 16% of the recommended daily allowance of omega-3 fatty acids, compared to 11% if you drank the same amount of conventional milk.

The arguments over whether organically-produced food is better for human health are unlikely to be resolved by this study. While the researchers have shown that some potentially beneficial fats are higher in organic milk than conventional milk, we don't know how much of an effect this would have on people's health.

Omega-3 fatty acids and alpha-linoleic acid have been associated with improvements in heart health, though causation has yet to be established. Indeed, the latest guidance from NICE does not recommend supplements of omega-3 for prevention of heart attacks, although it acknowledges that taking them does not appear to cause harm. In contrast, there's little evidence about the effect of conjugated linoleic acid on human health.

There are other factors worth bearing in mind. Firstly, the beneficial fats specified in this study are found in dairy fat, so would be a very small constituent of skimmed or semi-skimmed milk. Many people who want to protect their heart choose not to drink full-fat milk. Even if you did drink half a litre of full-fat organic milk a day, that would only give you a small proportion of the fatty acids recommended – and you would be getting the same level of saturated fats as drinking conventional milk. This would be 11g – over half the recommended 20g maximum daily saturated fat intake for women, or over a third of the 30g recommended for men.

The differences in vitamin and nutrient levels are small, and as the researchers note, the vitamins and minerals (vitamin E and iron) found at higher levels in organic milk are unlikely to have much effect on human health, as other foods provide much more of them in our regular diets.

Without good-quality studies that look at the effects on health of consuming mainly organic food, we can't really tell whether organically-produced food is better for our health.

It would be unwise to assume that organic foods and drinks are having a protective effect on your heart health if you neglect other important factors, such as your weightexercise levels and alcohol consumption.

Kasabian announce first tour dates of 2017

Get ready for more 'Fire'

Kasabian are set for a huge return next year, announcing their first tour dates of 2017.

The band are currently working on the follow-up to 2014’s ’48:13′. Having stormed Glastonbury in 2014 and their epic homecoming show to celebrate Leicester City FC’s victory, fans will soon be able to get a first taster of new material.

Taking to Twitter, the band have announced a trio of summer shows in Italy for July 2017. More European and UK dates are expected to follow shortly.

Last month, rumours started to circulate that the band would be headlining Reading & Leeds 2017. When asked for a response to the rumours and the band’s current activity, a Kasabian spokesman simply replied: “The band are currently finishing their new album.”

Earlier this year, the band debuted new track ‘Put Your Life On It’. Check it out below.

“Lennon said The Beatles version of rock & roll was their chair. So I thought ‘Wow, I want to make my version of that chair,’” said guitarist Serge Pizzorno of their new record earlier this year, – adding that the album would be “going back to our guitar roots.”

Frontman Tom Meighan added: “Serge played me the demos and I was ‘Fucking hell!’ It’s nothing like ’48:13’. There’s no fucking interludes or any of that shit.”

Meighan said new song ‘Put Your Life On It’ is “As good as ‘Let It Be’ – it’ll make you cry”, while ‘Good Fight’ is “Unbelievable, like a David Bowie song.” Other songs scheduled for the new album include ‘You’re In Love With A Psycho’ and ‘24/7’.

Live review: Kate Nash

Live review: Kate Nash

Komedia, Brighton Monday, March 8

I’m not a monster, so don’t get scared,” grins [a]Kate Nash[/a], bright blue eyebrows beetling below silver-and-sea-green forehead. If the post-punk sauce-mistress slink of [b]‘I Just Love You More’[/b] wasn’t a clear enough signal that Nash had changed, tonight will be. Batwing stripy art-dress swinging, she launches into a spittingly furious poem, [b]‘The Mansion Song’[/b], a neurotic and nasty skewering of scenester slappers. “[i]I read Glamour and The Guardian… I take cocaine… I can get fucked like the best of men[/i]”, she barks, grasping her guitar as an ominous synth drone and rumbling bass whirl around her. The poem segues into a stomping, shouting, Slits-ish song, with Kate bawling, “[i]I don’t have to be your baby… you can try and have your way[/i]” before hurling lyric sheets out into the crowd.

Not the girl you thought you knew, then; this small show, packed by the rabid, rowdy girl clan that follow Nash everywhere, is a space for her to unfurl new wings, test her strength and try on newly-stitched roles. Playing almost all her new album, [b]‘My Best Friend Is You’[/b] (and no [b]‘Foundations’[/b], egad), it’s a bewildering flaunting of many-hued feathers.

“This song is about homophobic pricks,” she announces, introducing [b]‘I’ve Got A Secret’[/b], a play-time sing-song that builds to a scuzzy, swaggering, YYYs-ish belter, big drums supporting Kate’s newly raw bellow. Lead single [b]‘Doo Wah Doo’[/b] sports grungy guitar, staccato chords and a sassy beat, while [b]‘Don’t You Wanna Share The Guilt?’[/b] revels in spoken-word angst and [b]‘Gorilla Munch’[/b] is dark and moody, Kate dirging out low basslines and intoning “everyone you knew was as vacuous as you”. So overwhelming is the rush of new sounds that [b]‘I Hate Seagulls’[/b] stands out for that gauche, over-cutesy Regina Spektor-esque lyrical style that could sometimes grate. Stand-out [b]‘Later On’[/b], though, finds her heartsore and yelling, Kathleen Hanna-style, “later on I cry my stupid eyes out”.

She pants with the effort of her playing, staring out at the crowd with an expression of genuine pain, made all the more intense by the blue brows. The unifying thread between Kates old and new is just that raw, key-thwacking passion; it might be louder and closer to the surface on the new tracks, but it was always there live; ‘Merry Happy’, reminiscent of an indie Victoria Wood on record, climaxes in a furious storm of battering piano, before Kate

ends by hitting random keys with fists like a stropping toddler. No monster, then, but no girl-next-door any more.

Chargers tie sets but are edged out in games, and show strength in doubles.

Dos Pueblos’ boys’ tennis team traveled to Westlake for a match with the Warriors. Although the Chargers tied in sets, 9-9, the lost in games, 72-71.

The match was tight from start to finish, and the two squads were tied after each round. Every player stepped up to play incredible tennis, and the Chargers snagged seven sets in doubles and two in singles.

The doubles teams of Joseph McDaniel and John Kim swept all three of their sets; Robert Kim and Ryan Zmolek took two sets; and the new doubles duo of Justin Kautz and Sean Simpsons also won two sets.

That private meeting at the Waldorf-Astoria, to discuss the economy, is just one illustration of how the president and Wall Street seem to have grown on each other.

Two weeks before he was sworn into office, Mr. Bush held a business leaders forum in Texas with dozens of prominent executives, but with no chief executive from Wall Street. Likewise, such executives were absent from his economic summit in Waco, Tex., in August 2002.

''There was some 'we're from Texas, we're not from Wall Street,' '' said Senator Jon Corzine of New Jersey, a Democrat who served as co-chairman at Goldman Sachs before taking office. ''To their credit, they've moved away from that.''

After winning Congressional approval for cuts in taxes on dividends, capital gains and for certain business investments, and after navigating a raft of corporate accounting scandals that shook the investment community, President Bush seems to have won over many financial executives, who are now strongly supporting his re-election campaign.

Continue reading the main story

A study to be released today shows that the financial community has surpassed all other groups, including lawyers and lobbyists, as the top industry among Mr. Bush's elite fund-raisers. The list of those generating $100,000 and $200,000 now includes chief executives like Henry M. Paulson of Goldman Sachs, John J. Mack of Credit Suisse First Boston and Stanley O'Neal of Merrill Lynch, whose firm has already raised twice the amount for Mr. Bush's re-election that it did during the entire 2000 campaign cycle.

''It's really a question of policy, that's what's driving this,'' said Marc Lackritz, president of the Securities Industry Association, which represents more than 650 securities firms. ''It's a pro-investor policy.''

Executives say the support is fed by patriotism and other factors, including the administration's actions to fight terrorism after the Sept. 11 attacks, which struck the country's financial nerve center. Financial executives are also providing money for the Republican convention, which is scheduled for New York next summer and will bring hundreds of business leaders to the city.

Finally, there is no clear leader among nine Democratic presidential candidates, some of whom have advocated repealing the administration's tax cuts, and Wall Street loves a winner.

Mr. Bush has long had support from the business community, but Wall Street has usually split its contributions between Democrats and Republicans and was supportive of President Bill Clinton and the presidential campaign of Al Gore. Whether the group will give as heavily to Democrats after a leader emerges from the primaries is yet to be seen.

A White House spokesman decline to characterize the president's relationship with Wall Street. But White House officials said that Mr. Bush had maintained regular contact with companies from all segments of the economy, from small businesses to the industrial sector, and that he had always appreciated Wall Street as an economic engine. When corporate scandals shook investor confidence, they noted, the president went to Wall Street to press for corporate accountability.

Campaign officials say the president has reached out to supporters nationwide, not just on Wall Street. ''All of our volunteer fund-raisers are an important part of the campaign,'' said Scott Stanzel, a campaign spokesman.

Yet some executives say the early days of the Bush administration suggested a frosty relationship. When he took office, the markets were declining, and he chose few from the Wall Street world as top advisers.

His first Treasury secretary, Paul H. O'Neill, came from Alcoa and had a tempestuous relationship with the financial sector. The Bush administration may also have suffered from comparisons to the Clinton administration, which was known for its warm relations with Wall Street. The Bush administration was also rocked by several corporate scandals, including those at Enron and Worldcom.

Allen B. Morgan Jr., the chairman of Morgan Keegan & Company, a brokerage firm based in Memphis, said support from Wall Street executives had come in spite of Mr. Bush's decision to keep some distance from them.

''Bush has stayed clear of the big firms,'' said Mr. Morgan, a former chairman of the Securities Industry Association and a Bush fund-raiser. ''But I think one of the reasons that people have raised money for him is they see him as a person who is cutting the size of government in the long run. They buy into that. And they think he can be re-elected.''

Others like Mr. Lackritz say they never saw a problem, finding the administration ''very receptive to ideas.'' Still others say it was Wall Street that woke up to Mr. Bush, not the other way around.

''Many people on Wall Street finally got it,'' said Steve Bartlett, a former member of Congress who is now president of the Financial Services Roundtable, which represents financial services companies. ''The president hasn't changed,'' he said. ''Wall Street has evolved to see that the president is doing what's right for the American people and the economy.''

When Mr. Bush began raising money this year, one of his first stops was New York, where he collected $4 million at an event organized in part by Mr. Paulson and Mr. Mack. On Friday, a reception is scheduled on Ellis Island at which Vice President Dick Cheney will thank more than 200 donors.

The 2004 election is still more than a year away, but employees of securities and investment firms and their political action committees have contributed $3.8 million to the Bush campaign through September, just $159,000 less than they gave during the entire campaign cycle in 2000, according to the Center for Responsive Politics, which tracks campaign finance.

The president has raised more from the industry than all nine candidates in the Democratic field combined. While Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts counts the industry as his second-largest contributor, at about $1 million through September, others have not done as well. Howard Dean, the top fund-raiser in the field, raised about $302,000, and Senator Joseph I. Lieberman of Connecticut raised about $639,000.

''All these guys are totally in Bush's camp,'' said a politically active executive, adding that ''people are not hedging their bets at this point. There's not a lot of fund-raising being done for Democrats right now.''

Mr. O'Neal of Merrill Lynch sent a series of letters to the homes of a few hundred of the firm's most senior executives in June, asking them to contribute to a fund-raising dinner in support of Mr. Bush. James E. Cayne, chairman and chief executive of Bear Stearns & Company, also sent a letter asking his executives to donate to the campaign.

Joseph J. Grano, who runs the brokerage operations of UBS, the Swiss bank, has been an avid backer of President Bush and the Republican convention. Mr. Grano promised to raise at least $200,000 for the re-election campaign and to gather money for the convention, said executives at the firm, formerly known as UBS PaineWebber.

Mr. Paulson, of Goldman Sachs, was recruited by Gov. George E. Pataki of New York to collect cash from the Wall Street firms to finance the convention, an official at the firm said, and has gathered $5 million so far.

Part of Mr. Bush's fund-raising success on Wall Street can be attributed to the new campaign-finance law that doubled, to $2,000, the amount an individual can give to a primary campaign. Several industries have already matched what they gave in 2000.

Mr. Bush plans to raise a record-setting $170 million for next year's race. His largest fund-raisers are grouped as Pioneers, who raise at least $100,000, and Rangers, who raise at least $200,000. An increasing number in both programs are from the financial sector.

Texans for Public Justice, a group that tracks campaign money, examined Mr. Bush's fund-raising network and which industries it represents. Its study, to be released today, shows that 20 percent now come from the financial sector, up from 14 percent in the last presidential election. The industry -- defined broadly to include banks, finance companies, securities and investment firms and accounting and tax service firms -- has produced at least 38 new elite fund-raisers for the Bush campaign.

Executives who have signed on include Mr. Cayne of Bear Stearns; Stephen M. Lessing, managing director at Lehman Brothers Holdings; and Henry Kravis, founding partner at Kohlberg Kravis & Roberts.

Over all, more of Mr. Bush's top fund-raisers come from the financial sector than any other, a change from the last presidential election when lawyers and lobbyists topped the list.

''The New York City financial district is doing much more than it did earlier,'' said Craig McDonald, executive director of Texans for Public Justice. ''Wall Street has surpassed K Street.''

At the Met Gala, Minimalism Is a Relative Term

Celebrities gathered on the red carpet at The Metropolitan Museum of Art for its annual costume benefit gala on Monday night.Published OnCreditCreditDamon Winter/The New York Times

The theme of the exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute this year was fashion in an age of technology. This meant that people like Andrew Bolton, the institute’s new head curator, along with Jonathan Ive of Apple — who served as a sponsor — spoke in lofty tones about the dichotomies of man versus machine, haute couture versus ready-to-wear, hand-sewn versus mass produced.

For lay people, it meant a carefully curated exhibit of wild designer gowns and a gala celebration on Monday night at which the bulk of celebrity attendees wore metallics.

Kanye West wore a loosefitting metallic jacket and a pair of colored contact lenses that turned his eyes a kind of iridescent blue. His wife, Kim Kardashian, wore metallic, beaded Balmain.

The stylist Tabitha Simmons wore red and gold embroidered Dolce & Gabbana, looking rather like a chair in pre-revolutionary France.

And the Oscar-winning actress Lupita Nyong’o donned a celery-green, metallic Calvin Klein dress, and an updo that seemed to recall both “Star Wars” and Nina Simone.

At most major red carpet events, choices like these would be referred to as misfires.

Here at the Met Gala, they imply merely that the attendees took the theme to heart.

For example, the Fox News host Megyn Kelly had on a navy, fitted Badgley Mischka dress. There was glitter in her hair, which had been slicked back, Brigitte Nielsen style. “It was a lot of fun to wear it in a way that would ordinarily inspire a phone call from second-floor management,” Ms. Kelly said.

Sarah Jessica Parker wore 18th-century-inspired men’s wear and said the evening was like a master class in fashion. “Sometimes you get an A and sometimes, it’s a pass-or-fail situation,” said Ms. Parker, who earned a fair share of ire last year for one such outfit.

And Madonna had on a black lace Givenchy dress by Riccardo Tisci that left almost nothing about her rear end or her bosom to the imagination.

Does she ever hear back from Ms. Wintour after making choices like these?

“Oh, she doesn’t speak to me,” Madonna said. “She does speak to Riccardo, though.”

So anyway, the evening began on the red carpet just before 6 p.m., when Ms. Wintour arrived in a simple cream Chanel gown.

Though she may be the brains behind this operation — whose involvement over the last decade and a half turned a trade-show-like event into a global social swirl that rivals the Oscars — she actually wanted the attention to go to Mr. Bolton, who created the exhibit on his own this year, the first since the retirement of Harold Koda, the Met’s legendary costume chief.

And the decisions about the exhibit, she said, were his entirely.

Furthermore, after a China-themed exhibition last year with set pieces and lighting design complex enough to rival a U2 show, the desire this year was to do something a little simpler.

But minimalism is a relative concept when you are talking about an exhibit of fur boleros and dresses made entirely of bones.

One minute, Lady Gaga was ascending the stairs in a bustierlike top with platform shoes, along with fishnet stockings and no pants. The next, Kate Hudson was inches away from her, wearing a white dress that seemed to have been constructed entirely from shards of plexiglass. In came Claire Danes, her long hair pulled back, her husband, Hugh Dancy, on one arm, the designer Zac Posen on another, and a baby blue dress with a train so long it took an actual bus to get her there.

Ms. Danes was not kidding when she explained this, prompting an obvious question: Was it remotely comfortable?

“Um,” she said. “I don’t know. I’m moving carefully and cautiously. And I’m going to throw the whole after party under my dress.”

If no one was asking her if she was all right, that might just be because most of them were in a similar boat.

The model Alessandra Ambrosio wore another metallic Balmain that looked as if it had been made from the mirrors at Studio 54.

“It’s heavy and it’s uncomfortable,” she said, “which is how it should be when you’re coming to the Met Ball.”

Even former Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg took the theme to heart. Looking over at his companion, Diana L. Taylor, he said, “She gave me a wood bow tie made by machine.”

As in years past, the last major celebrity arrival was Beyoncé, who walked onto the red carpet at 8:40 p.m. in a nude-colored Givenchy dress that also had metallic embellishments and showed off her famous curves.

Arriving fashionably late seemed apropos this year, coming a week after the release of her new album, “Lemonade,” which hints strongly at possible past infidelity and discord in her marriage.

But she was not there to talk about that, or why her husband, Jay Z, was not on her arm. The only question she answered was about how long it took to get ready. “It was actually a lot easier than last year,” she said.

An article in some editions on Tuesday about the gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art misidentified the entity that organized the exhibit about fashion in an age of technology.
