Abstract: A lighting apparatus for creating a substantially homogenous lit appearance along the length of the apparatus is provided. The lighting apparatus includes an elongated envelope, an LED mounted in the elongated envelope, and a reflector. The elongated envelope includes a translucent portion. The reflector is positioned in relation to the LED such that the light emitted from the LED is directed toward the translucent portion of the elongated envelope and dispersed along the length of the lighting apparatus.

Abstract: A method and computerized system for reducing risk actually assumed by at least one of a plurality of parties, wherein at least one of the parties supplies electric power to at least one other of the parties, and if an unplanned at least partial failure to supply the electric power occurs, at least one of the parties assumes the risk. The method includes designating at least one factor associated with the supplying of electric power and for determining whether an unplanned at least partial failure to supply the electric power that occurs is a qualifying event; designating a compensation which will at least partially reduce the risk actually assumed by the at least one of the parties assuming the risk if the unplanned at least partial failure to supply the electric power occurs and is determined to be a qualifying event; and, establishing a relationship between the at least one of the parties assuming the risk and at least one other party.
