Didier Grumbach, head of the French Couture Federation, lashed out at the fashion house. "I find this absolutely scandalous," he told the AFP. "Winning notoriety through people's illness is painful.

NIH estimates that 100,000 U.S. children could receive HGH if it proves effective...
Euro Disney got mixed results from two architects named Antoine. Grumbach's Sequoia Lodge is a nontoxic Rocky Mountain high -- restful, woodsy, organic. Predock's Hotel Santa Fe, once you get past its drive-in-theater billboard of Clint Eastwood, looks as bleak as a Southwestern insane asylum. For anyone who wants to get suicidally depressed at Euro Disney, this cinder-block shantytown is the place to bunk...
