<font color="white" size="1">WASHINGTON Nine states will share $500 million in grant money won
in a high-profile competition intended to jump-start improvements in often-overlooked early childhood
programs, The Associated Press has learned.The winners to be announced Friday at
the White House are California, Delaware, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina, Ohio,
Rhode Island and Washington, according to an administration official who spoke on

the lesson is that markets and consumer demand are the best drivers
of innovation and new choices," Upton said.Sen. Jeff Bingaman, chairman of the
Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, said the move would have little
practical consequence, since it does not affect a 2007 law that requires
manufacturers to produce or import more efficient bulbs. The five largest light
bulb manufacturers have already switched to making and selling the more efficient

public."Blocking funds to enforce minimum standards works against our nation getting the
