Press Releases

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The campaign for the Oscars kicked into high gear at last night's Piaget Men To Watch event, as Lee Daniels, the celebrated director of "Precious" toasted fellow Oscar hopeful Jeremy Renner, the star of "The Hurt Locker" which just swept the Gotham Awards. The two were being honored along with: Jeffrey Donovan, star of the TV series "Burn Notice", celebrity chef, restaurateur and now author David Chang, fashion designer Michael Bastian, and top-ranked US polo player Nick Roldan.

Piaget acknowledged the distinguished group at an exclusive cocktail party and touted them as the ones to watch in the year ahead. "It's a privilege to be in the company of these six accomplished gentlemen who exemplify style, strength of character and performance--the same ideals that we hold dear at Piaget," said Larry Boland, President of Piaget NA. In recognition of their achievements, Boland presented each of the honorees with a Piaget Polo FortyFive, the firm's bold new titanium and steel timepiece.

The event was held at the dramatic Lehmann Maupin Gallery on the Lower East Side, with the artwork of renowned British artist Tracy Emin providing a provocative backdrop for the festivities. An intimate crowd of New York's best and brightest from the worlds of film, fashion, art and design joined Piaget to personally congratulate the honorees.

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Residents of The Washington Metropolitan Area will not have to wait on the health care reform bill to pass in order to save money on their prescriptions. A free prescription assistance drug card program called DC Rx Card launched earlier today. The program is open to all residents and will provide instant savings on prescription drugs at most retail pharmacy locations. The Washington Metropolitan Area has more than five (5) million residents that are eligible for this prescription assistance program.

The DC Chamber of Commerce is one of the many supporters of the program. "In the midst of trying economic times, DC Rx Card helps residents throughout The Washington Metropolitan Area looking for new solutions to cut the ever-rising costs of prescription medications," said Barbara Lang, President and CEO of the DC Chamber of Commerce. "The DC Chamber is proud to support a program that is open to everyone and will provide valuable savings."

The Medical Society of the District of Columbia is also working to create awareness for the program. "Far too often the high cost of pharmaceuticals stands in the way of patient compliance for obtaining needed medications," said K. Edward Shanbacker, Executive Vice President of Medical Society of the District of Colombia. "This program will assist patients, especially those without other resources, in achieving optimal health outcomes, and the physician community is pleased to have this resource for their patients."

The DC Rx Card was launched to help uninsured residents afford their prescription medications. However, the program can also be used by people that have health insurance coverage with no prescription benefits, which is common in many health savings accounts (HSA) and high deductible health plans. Additionally, people who have prescription coverage can use this program for non-formulary or non-covered drugs.

Anyone interested in obtaining a free discount prescription drug card can visit www.DCRxCard.com. CVS/Pharmacy was selected to serve as the exclusive preferred pharmacy for the program due to their size and the support they have delivered to similar programs in other parts of the country. CVS/Pharmacy has the ability to process your prescription through DC Rx Card even if you don't have a card.

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- With the gift-giving season quickly approaching, Intertek is pleased to see Radio Flyer's Push, Pull and Ride Wagon revealed as the first toy to be certified under the Toy Industry Association's newly launched Toy Safety Certification Program (TSCP). As a leading provider of quality and safety solutions worldwide, Intertek is an ANSI-accredited and Toy Industry Association (TIA) recognized certification body that's worked in tandem with the legendary wagon maker to oversee design appraisals, factory process control evaluations, test reports and related documents to assure compliance with safety standards mandated by the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA).

Recent attention towards children's product recalls has highlighted the need for manufacturers to consider safety hazards from early on in the design process. "It's essential for manufacturers to take a more holistic approach at safety," said Gene Rider, President of Intertek Consumer Goods. "We've worked with toy industry leaders, such as Radio Flyer, early on in their planning process to understand potential usage of the end product and to identify safe product design."

In addition to meeting TSCP and regulatory specifications, Intertek guides manufacturers using its own Design Hazard Analysis (DHA) criteria, which helps integrate safety into the modeling process of product development. Companies can thus effectively minimize production setbacks, costly rework, and post-distribution problems resulting in failures and recalls. Using historical data, simulations and child development research, Intertek can help toy makers consider every aspect of foreseeable use before a product is brought to market.

Shenwei Zhu, Senior Quality Assurance Engineer for Radio Flyer said, "We have partnered with Intertek throughout our product development cycles to ensure we design safe products that go beyond regulations. Throughout the TSCP certification process, Intertek's integrity, fast and friendly service, and global outreach helped us to ensure that our products are manufactured to the highest industry standards."
