A study funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) reveals that pregnant women's exposure to the flu is linked to a nearly fourfold increased risk of their child developing bipolar disorder in adulthood. "Prospective mothers should take common sense preventive measures, such as getting flu shots prior to and in the early stages of pregnancy and avoiding contact with people who are symptomatic," says Alan Brown of Columbia University and New York State Psychiatric Institute and a grantee of the NIH's National Institute of Mental Health. "In spite of public health recommendations, only a relatively small fraction of such women get immunized." Brown and his colleagues report their findings in the journal JAMA Psychiatry. The study is the first to prospectively follow families in the same health maintenance organization, using physician-based diagnoses and structured standardized psychiatric measures. Access to unique Kaiser-Permanente, county, and Child Health and Development Study databases enabled the researchers to include more cases with detailed maternal flu exposure information than in previous studies. There was evidence suggesting slightly higher risk for bipolar disorder if the flu occurred during the second or third trimesters. In addition, flu exposure was associated with an almost sixfold increase in a subtype of bipolar disorder with psychotic features.

A new exhibition in Germany about archaeology under the Nazis shows how the regime launched a 'Last Crusade' expedition in wartime to find the Holy Grail from the Last Supper of Christ. In the 1989 Last Crusade movie, Indiana Jones played by Harrison Ford was on the quest for the grail – and he was in competition with the Nazis. Now truth turns out to be stranger than fiction in the exhibition 'Dig for Germania. Archaeology under the Swastika' in Bremen. It tells how S.S. chief Heinrich Himmler allegedly visited Spain during the war because he believed the grail was at the Montserrat Abbey near Barcelona.
The chief architect and manager of the Nazi Holocaust believed that finding the grail 'would help Germany win the war and give him supernatural powers.' Squads of S.S. men searched in vain for the grail. The S.S. budget for such projects was vast as the Nazis intended their finds to rewrite history to prove Germans were the greatest race in all history. Before Hitler came to power there were just a handful of professorships in archaeology; afterwards there were 24, all tasked with promoting this claptrap theory while finding as many rare artefacts as possible from around the globe.
'If we want to again become a large, single people, we must build on the time, where the Nordic racial nucleus was still pure and unadulterated and which combined with a splendid culture which influenced all over Europe,' said Hans Reinerth, Hitler's favourite archaeologist.
Far from being the 'King of the Jews,' Himmler shared the hocus-pocus belief with his boss Hitler that Jesus Christ was actually descended from Aryan stock – the race which Hitler decreed was to rule the world for 1,000 years. 'This is the time of Germanic antiquity, the German prehistory', he added. Visitors to the exhibition are informed: 'The Nazis sought to establish the image of blonde, blue-eyed heroes and conquerors who were the ancestors of the Germans and that their race was summoned for world domination.'
When the Nazi war machine rolled eastwards to conquer the Soviet Union in 1941, the archaeologists were in their wake, using slave labourers to dig up evidence of 'German superior race-colonies' that inhabited the lands back in the distant past. The exhibition tells the visitor that many died in the hunt for artefacts trying to underwrite this racial myth.
'Archaeologists often planned these crimes or worked on their own initiative', said historian of Dirk Mahsarski, who curated the exhibition hall at the Bremen Focke Museum. 'There are a whole bunch of archaeologists of whom we can safely say that they knew about the Holocaust and the suffering of forced laborers.' The exhibition chronicles how two of the Third Reich's most powerful men – Himmler and Alfred Rosenberg, the Nazi party racial philosopher – competed with separate archaeological teams to dig for artefacts to support Nazi theories. Himmler even sent a team of S.S. men to Tibet before the war to try to discover the mythical lost kingdom of Shangri La.
Mostly the Nazis discovered pottery and bits of jewellery, all of which were used to promote their berserk racial theories; the treasure, like the Holy Grail, eluded them.

Learn about the features, benefits and risks of gearing over higher-yielding stocks, around dividend time.
By Peter Mermelas, UBS
The dividend yield play is a strategy that can generate income from dividend-paying stocks using listed instalment warrants. Instalments are a way of borrowing to invest (referred to as "leveraging" or "gearing") in listed securities through instalment payments.
For a fraction of the price of the underlying security you can gain leveraged exposure through a loan made to you and an underlying security held on your behalf by a security trustee. Instalment warrants are traded on ASX and are a limited recourse leveraged investment that can provide access to dividends on the underlying security and franking credits (for those who are eligible for franking credits).
(Editor's note: To learn about the features, benefits and risks of instalments, do the free ASX Warrants and instalments course).
How the leveraged dividend yield strategy works
The strategy can be used to access dividend income and potentially franking credits from higher-yielding stocks. The strategy can be particularly relevant to underlying shares that pay reliable franked dividends.
Because of their track record of consistently paying franked dividends, the big four banks - ANZ Banking Group, Commonwealth Bank, National Australia Bank, Westpac Banking Corporation - as well as Telstra Corporation, are candidates for the strategy but instalment warrants over other high-yielding shares could equally fit into the strategy.
Steady dividend income is a core part of the strategy, so looking at a dividend calendar is a good place to start. The first step involves buying an instalment warrant before the underlying share goes ex-dividend, to gain a leveraged exposure to the share and therefore the dividends that are about to be paid.
This instalment warrant can be held to its maturity if you are comfortable with the risks of holding such an investment (see below) and you wish to derive further dividends and potentially franking credits from the underlying share during the term of the instalment warrant.
Alternatively, if you wish to manage your portfolio more actively, you can select from the range of instalment warrants offered over various ASX-listed shares to see if you can roll over your invested amount by selling one instalment warrant and buying another prior to the new instalment warrant's ex-dividend date.
Be aware of the holding period requirement if you would like to qualify for franking credits (see below). But a strategy that involves rolling over your invested amount across different instalment warrant series over different underlying securities would likely generate a more regular dividend income stream compared to a buy-and-hold strategy over a single instalment warrant that typically would pay only two dividends per year.
Importantly, the active strategy carries greater risk as you will have exposure to different underlying securities and a greater range of factors that can affect the price of the underlying security.
Putting the strategy into practice
The instalment warrants must be purchased before the ex-dividend date for you to be entitled to the dividend from the underlying share. To be eligible for the franking credits, certain criteria must be satisfied and are usually set out in a tax summary in the product disclosure statement for the relevant instalments. This includes needing to be an Australian resident taxpayer, satisfying the "45-day holding period" rule, and meeting the "at risk" requirement. You should seek independent tax advice from a qualified professional before investing in instalment warrants, including in relation to whether you qualify for franking credits.
Planning is essential to the success of the strategy. Timing the entry and exit to this trade is very important because of the embedded leverage or gearing in the instalment warrant that will accelerate both gains and losses. The instalment warrant price is closely linked to the price of the underlying share (among other things) subject to any caps that may apply to a particular series.
A cap feature in an instalment warrant means you will not benefit from an increase in price of the underlying share above the capped level. If the underlying share price falls as the stock goes ex-dividend, the value of your instalments will also fall with the ex-dividend event. If the underlying share price subsequently rises or falls, the price of your instalment warrant will also likely rise or fall, respectively.
Before deciding whether to adopt this particular investment and strategy, consider:
- Share price movements - how do you expect the share price to perform both before and after the ex-dividend date? What is the total return (inclusive of dividends) that you expect to make and how does that compare to the cost of gearing (i.e. the interest payable) through an instalment warrant?
- Researching and developing a schedule of company dividends amounts (including franking rates), ex-dividend dates and dividend payment dates
- Identifying an instalment warrant that reflects your tolerance for risk. The higher the gearing level, the higher the risk
- Selecting an instalment warrant with an expiry date beyond your desired holding period that is able to capture two or three dividends
- Speaking to an independent licensed financial adviser and tax professional to work out whether instalment warrants and dividend yield strategies are right for you.
For information on historical share performance around ex-dividend dates, see ASX Market Insight report on Ex-Dividend Performance of ASX200 stocks.
You should note that historical performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance so careful analysis of the risks and profit potential of your particular trade should be done before you invest.
Useful information for employing the dividend yield strategy with instalment warrants
- Research and consensus sharebroking analyst forecasts will provide an estimate of the dividend and franking percentage leading up to the company announcement
- As mentioned, you should seek independent tax advice from a qualified professional before investing in instalment warrants, including in relation to whether you qualify for franking credits. Some helpful information is available in the ASX/Deloitte "Are you entitled to franking credits" document.
- Plan and monitor your trade - particularly in the lead-up to the announcement of results. This announcement could trigger significant price movement if results differ from expectations, and after the ex-dividend date as the underlying share price should theoretically drop.
- Consider the interest cost that would be incurred during your holding period, as this cost would reduce the value of your instalment warrants, all else being equal.
This is not an exhaustive list of the considerations you or your financial adviser should take into account when employing a dividend yield strategy with instalment warrants, but it is intended as a useful reference point.
Case study: Leveraging into bank dividends
Telstra and Commonwealth Bank are expected to go ex-dividend in February and August each year.
The ISU series of UBS Capped Instalment warrants issued by UBS AG, Australia Branch are approximately 100 per cent geared at the time of writing and are expected to capture the February 2013 and August 2013 dividends that will be paid out to eligible instalment warrant holders.
The following table compares the prices of ISU series of UBS Capped Instalment warrants on January 24, 2013 (based on the underlying share price of that date) to hypothetical grossed-up dividends for February 2013 and August 2013 (on the basis that the dividends for February 2013 and August 2013 will equal the aggregate dividends paid for February 2012 and August 2012 and will also be 100 per cent franked).
You should note that historical data may not be a good indicator of future dividends and franking levels, and investors should consider their personal circumstances to ascertain whether they are entitled to franking credits.

For investors looking for an instalment warrant with a lower gearing level over Commonwealth Bank shares, an investor may consider the CBASST series, which is approximately 52 per cent geared (as the date of writing). The SST series are UBS Rolling Self Funding Instalments, so while investors may receive the benefit of dividends and potentially franking credits, the cash amounts of actual dividends are not paid out to the investor, but are instead used to reduce the loan amount of the UBS Instalment.
A possible strategy for investors already holding Commonwealth Bank shares is to sell the stock and buy the instalment warrant. This would allow investors to use a portion of the funds from the sale of shares to buy the warrant, which could capture the two dividends and any available franking credits and any potential upside in the shares. The surplus funds from the sale of the shares could be used to diversify a share portfolio.
This is simply one of a number of possible strategies that an investor may use in relation to instalment warrants only and does not take into account an individual investor's investment objectives, financial situation or particular needs. Investors should obtain advice from a licensed financial adviser regarding the suitability of investment instalment warrants and dividend yield strategy before making an investment decision.
Main benefits of the strategy using instalment warrants
- Less capital is required to derive the same dividend income and potential franking credits compared to a direct investment in the underlying shares
- Leverage can generate greater profits if underlying share price appreciates (up to any cap level)
- Gearing is achieved through one simple investment without the risk of margin calls
- Known downside risk - investors cannot lose more than what they have invested due to built-in protection through the limited recourse loan in the instalment structure. Investors are not required to pay any shortfall in the event that the price of the underlying is less than the loan amount when the instalment warrant expires
- Instalment warrants are eligible investments for self-managed superannuation funds (SMSFs) if made via a cash application or purchased on ASX
- Interest paid on the embedded limited recourse loan may be tax deductible, depending on your personal circumstances.
Main risks of the strategy using instalment warrants
- A small negative move in the underlying share price will lead to a higher percentage loss on an instalment warrant investment compared to a direct share investment, because the instalment warrant is a leveraged investment
- The value of your instalment warrants depends on its issuer's ability to fulfil its obligations and you may have credit exposure to the issuer
- The share price may fall for reasons other than the share going ex-dividend; for example, due to a fundamental change in the performance of the company or an unfavourable results announcement
- The value of your instalment warrant will "decay" over time as a result of interest and protection costs on the embedded loan
- Upside will be limited if the instalment warrant has a cap feature
- Obligations created by instalment warrants do not constitute deposit obligations of UBS and are not covered by the depositor protection provisions of Division 2 of the Banking Act 1959 (Cth).
You should ensure you read and understand the complete list of risks in the PDS for the relevant series of instalment warrants before making a decision to invest.

"I never write reviews but I HAD to for this product. This christmas card turned out better than I could have ever imagined. My son was born in september and I never sent out birth announcements (because life with a newborn is chaotic) so I used it for our christmas card/be-lated birth announcement. It is beautiful the quality is 5 stars and seems like it should have cost 10x as much. I highly recommend."
"I received a lot of compliments on the card. The quality of the card is great. I would have loved to have seen the card in lighter colors and/or more holiday themed. I liked how you could design the back of the card with a different color and photo and add another message. I used this card as a combination birth announcement and Christmas card. I would recommend it."
"Super quick delivery (days earlier than expected!). Quick and easy design template. I used the pearl paper and am so glad I did. It added a little extra shine to the gold style design. The weight of the paper was perfect for my son's birth announcement!"
"Great quality card stock. Design in back compliments nicely. I used sepia tone for pictures and it matched very well. Many compliments!"
"This is the most unique card with beautiful colors! We used the card for our second son's birth announcement and received so many compliments! This is my second time ordering from tiny prints and I will continue to do so. The cards are such great quality!"

Trex Company Announces Third-Quarter 2012 Results
Trex Company, Inc. (NYSE: TREX), the world's largest manufacturer of wood-alternative decking and railing products, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012.
Net sales for the third quarter of 2012 totaled $70.8 million compared to net sales of $67.9 million for the 2011 third quarter. The Company reported a net loss of $14.3 million, or $0.86 per diluted share, for the 2012 quarter compared to a net loss of $0.5 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the prior-year period. During the third quarter of 2012, the Company recognized a $20 million pre-tax increase to its warranty reserve for decking material manufactured at its Nevada plant between 2002 and 2006. Before giving effect to this charge, net income was $6.2 million, or $0.36 per diluted share. The Company's third-quarter-2011 results included an accelerated non-cash charge of $0.5 million related to its repurchase of $5.6 million of its senior subordinated convertible notes. Before giving effect to this charge, the Company realized net income of $0.03 million, or $0.00 per diluted share, for the 2011 third quarter.
"Trex turned in another strong operating performance," commented Chairman, President and CEO Ronald W. Kaplan. "Year over year, sales rose 4%, topping the guidance we provided. On an underlying basis, gross margin exceeded 31%, maintaining strong margins for the year and delivering solid underlying earnings. I am pleased with our results to date in 2012, especially given the continued economic challenges.
"During the quarter we recognized a $20 million increase to the warranty reserve for a legacy issue. We concluded, based on an analysis of recent claims activity, that the payments and the rate of decline in claims in 2012 will approximate the levels experienced in 2011. Although the rate of claims in 2012 has dropped off at a healthy pace – and we expect reductions to continue in subsequent years – it is now apparent that the declines will not be at the rate previously expected. This not only has an impact on this year's claims rate, but also on the rate of expected future claims."

If your using swap magic and don't have a flip top, you'll need to first
remove the front cover of the disc tray for use of the slide card.
Here's a link for how to remove the front cover...

After patching burn the iso with Imgburn or Dvd Decrypter to respectable media

Plus, I think it would be decent if you let us pick how our body looks, you\'re doing barbie syndrome, not everyone is that skinny, some are muscular, some are heavier,and last but not least we want to be able to have hats, without having to change our hair, there are some cute hats I\'ll admit, but I have short blond hair, and your making it so we must choose the hair that comes with the hat.

Fix-It Friday: So You've Run Out of Yarn…
While working through my latest knitting project, a sweater, I saw that my sneaky little yarn tail was creeping toward my project, and my ball of yarn was getting closer and closer to ending. So what now? There are several easy ways to attach new yarn to your project, like the Russian join or the spit splice. But, my favorite way is to use a simple half-square knot. Here's how to join yarn:
The first step is to stop knitting, leaving yourself a three-inch tail of yarn. Then, find the working end of your next ball of yarn, and grab it so that you have a second three-inch tail. With the new ball of yarn, tie a half-square knot around the old tail (preserving both three-inch tails), slide the knot up to your project, and tighten it. Keep the old and new tails out of the way while you knit the rest of the project. Once you're finished knitting, weave both tails in, and voilà!
If you've enjoyed this tip, you might also be interested in Ragga Eiríksdóttir's instructions on how to join yarn ends.

Perfect picture illustrations! Thanks Stefanie.
Great photos! One question…do you untie the knot before weaving in the tails or do you leave the knot in and weave in the remaining tail yarn?
Please don't tie knots in your knitting! Try some of these alternatives for adding yarn: http://techknitting.blogspot.com/2007/02/adding-new-ball-of-yarn-in-same-color.html
I've been "cheating" with a knot and just working to make sure its on the wrong side….But this is inspired!!! So simple, so elegant!
Thank you
Thank you so much for showing this. I have used several other patterns for this but have not liked them. Thank you for the pictures also. I do better with pictures.
I was taught to never tie a knot.
Instead of a square knot try a slip knot and then tighten which should kind of pop when locked in, it's called a Weaver's Knot and used in bookbinding (and weaving).
I was just knitting a new project and suddenly the yarn broke – in the middle of a row. I'm so grateful that I had Stefanie's idea to go back to. I've never joined a new ball of yarn this way but it worked out fine. The knot doesn't even show and I'm thrilled.
Thanks Stefanie and all of you at Craftsy!
I'll add to the never tie a knot chorus. That's the absolute last thing I'd ever do with my work. I'm shocked to see someone as experienced as Stefanie suggest such blasphemy.
I do a few different things, depending on the circumstances. If the fabric is dense and the yarn is the right squishiness, I usually just knit three or four stitches with old and new yarns held together, then drop the old yarn tail and continue with only the new yarn.
The other thing I do is to tie an overhand knot with the new and old tails really snugly next to the fabric, then undo the knot when I go to weave in the ends.
I love the Russian join if I can't spit splice. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-O5ZcSVWCMc
I'm a big fan of the spit splice, but I've been known to tie a knot in acrylic.
If it's 100% wool yarn (not superwash) you can always spit splice the ends together!
depends on what type of yarn I'm using. 100% wool I would felt the 2 ends together, others I might twist the 2 ends together
if it's wool, i spit splice and knit while damp to be less obvious; if it's not wool, i will knit old and new together for five stitches, leaving a five inch tail on either side to be woven in later.
I was always told never EVER to tie a knot and not to trust knots in the skein. It's nice to know there are other schools of thought.
I've always just dropped the old yarn, started knitting with the new, and woven in both ends when I'm done. But I like this half-knot idea a lot and have already employed it once since this post went up.
I never tie knots! I have always woven in the new yarn for 5 or 6 stitches, switch to it an then woven the old piece for 5 or 6 stitches. (Similar to how you would twist colour work on back.
If the wrong side might show and the work is fine (like shawls or lace) I use a Russian join. It's barely noticeable. I'm pretty sure you can google it.
I used to NEVER tie a knot, just start with the new. But now I use the half square knot because it helps to keep the tension even. If at the end the knot is a problem, it can be undone.
I consider a knot to be a temporary thing, myself; to be later woven in and especially good for worsted spun and heavy weight yarns. If I am working with a woolen spun yarn, lace and fingering weight, a russian join is best. (Of course, these are only my opinions!)
How do you suggest to join cotton yarn or what to do with the ends? It seems to show and be extra bulk for me when I weave it.
You've got to be kidding!!! I have been knitting for over 50 years and one of the few hard-and-fast rules has always been NO KNOTS IN KNITTING!
Well, you put a knot in the last string when your finished with the project right? Lots of people here are saying NO KNOTS in Knitting, but that's a knot isn't it? lol

One country already has Obamacare. Here's how it works after 65 years:
North Korea's health care system is in shambles with doctors sometimes performing amputations without anesthesia and working by candlelight in hospitals lacking essential medicine, heat and power, a human rights watchdog said Thursday.
North Korea's state health care system has been deteriorating for years amid the country's economic difficulties. Many of its 24 million people reportedly face health problems related to chronic malnutrition, such as tuberculosis and anemia, Amnesty International said in a report on the state of the health care system.
A 24-year-old defector from northeastern Hamkyong province told Amnesty that a doctor amputated his left leg from the calf down without anesthesia after his ankle was crushed by a moving train when he fell from one of the cars.
"Five medical assistants held my arms and legs down to keep me from moving. I was in so much pain that I screamed and eventually fainted from pain," said the man, identified only by his family name, Hwang. "I woke up one week later in a hospital bed."

When Ruthann Zentner began studying yoga, she soon realized that its focused breathing, emphasis on enhancing flexibility, and core-strengthening poses could help people of any age achieve mental and physical wellness. Throughout her yoga journey, she spent time working with Shakta Khalsa, a renowned children's yoga instructor, which inspired her to educate children through engaging stories and kid-friendly yoga classes as a certified yoga storyteller. Within the teal-green walls and dark wood floors of the studio, kids limber up while having fun during yoga-centered games, working off the stresses of filing lemonade-stand taxes. Adult students learn the basics in beginner-level yoga classes, or strengthen their cores and improve their balance in PiYo, which merges elements of Pilates and yoga into high-intensity routines. For her older students and those unable to do floor work, she partners poses with four-legged props in chair yoga.
Ruthann also trained under Sadie Nardini, an empowerment speaker, yoga and anatomy expert, and Healthy Hedonism lifestyle leader, and received training in Bootybarre, which combines strength, flexibility and cardio. At The Zen Zone she strives to share the latest trends and practices in yoga and Pilates with her students.
Snap Fitness's around-the-clock gyms enable members to work on their physical well-being with a cornucopia of fitness equipment. With 24-hour access, members don't have to let The Man tell them when to help themselves to Snap's strength and cardio equipment, which features built-in TVs and other media diversions. For those who exercise during conventional hours, Snap's friendly, unintimidating atmosphere welcomes patrons of all ability levels, unlike schoolyard dodge-ball squads. Members also enjoy nationwide access to all Snap Fitness locations, ideal for working out while traveling. For a dose of custom advice, patrons can seek out a personal-training session with a certified coach, who helps them assess and address their fitness goals. Clients reap the benefit of individual attention as a personal trainer helps them tackle weight loss, prepare for an arm-wrestling competition, or unveil the mysteries of arcane cable-weight machines.
Paradise Park started its life as a simple miniature-golf course in 1992. Since then, the park has grown with Lee's Summit, mirroring the suburb's population growth with additions that have turned it into a sprawling temple to family fun. Outdoors, guests can still show off their putts and best gopher impressions on the miniature-golf course, or head over to the go-kart track to face off against fellow drivers on a 1,000-foot road-inspired course. Inside the park's huge indoor area, kids play and learn at the Children's Edutainment Center or blast each other with air-propelled balls at the Foam Factory. A game room harks back to the arcades of old with token-fed classics such as Ms. Pac-Man, as well as offering new amusements including a SpongeBob SquarePants game.
Led by the experienced fitness guru Ryan Layman and his troop of knowledgeable trainers, Longview Recreation Center's boot camp motivates participants with peer power and intense physical exercises that last 30–45 minutes. Like Christmas sweaters and the length of fingers, no two workouts are ever the same. This boot camp adheres to the mind-body fusion approach, which strategically uses your own body weight in a combination of balance, resistance, cardio, sweaty camaraderie, and yoga stretching. For best Baconnaise-burning results, the professional motivators at Longview recommend attending boot camp two to three times a week. Check out the schedule to determine the best time (morning or night) and place (indoor or outdoor classes) to receive your swift kick in the pantaloons.
Jazzercise is 60 minutes of cardio, strength training, and stretching that incorporates moves from hip-hop, yoga, Pilates, jazz dance, kickboxing, and resistance training with handheld weights. Dancing with the Stars multiple-champion Cheryl Burke is a big fan of Jazzercise's improvisational workouts, though luckily you won't need her dance moves to get the most out of your class. If you're prone to first-class jitters, though, you can review the basic moves online before you go. Expect to burn off up to 500 calories with each go-round.
ImPulse Fitness' passionate instructors center their classes on camaraderie and supportive energy. Bootycamp fitness classes combine resistance and cardio training to sculpt muscles into toned masterpieces. A veteran Zumba instructor leads international-rhythm-inspired workouts, getting participants to sweat in the original universal language of dance aerobics. The turbo-kick class combines aerobic exercise with muscle-building martial-arts moves, and Vinyasa flow and Hatha yoga classes home in on body, mind, and spirit. Students can also develop abdominal prowess and articulate bellybuttons during shimmy-inducing belly-dance classes.

Orogold Cosmetics
Midtown East
- $$$$
Time Out says
Posted: Fri Aug 2 2013
Founded in Los Angeles in 2008, this high-end skin-care brand specializes in products infused with 24-karat colloidal gold, which is said to have antiaging benefits. Although Orogold has 70 stores across the globe, this tri-level flagship is the brand's first in NYC. Rather than pack the white-lacquered, 3,600-square-foot space with its spendy moisturizers ($128–$1,000), cleansers ($118–$138), serums ($128–$1,500), body creams ($28–$68) and masks ($248–$1,500), the company keeps just a few testers of each item displayed in golden alcoves for a clean, minimalist look. Either play with samples of eye serums ($198), collagen-renewal creams ($248) and men's aftershave balms ($148) on your own, or have a staffer help you find the proper products for your skin type via a complimentary 20-minute facial (no purchase necessary) in one of the two subterranean gilded treatment rooms. Shoppers are encouraged to linger at the upstairs bar, where you can sip a gratis cappuccino or espresso beside the tiered chandelier. Make sure to check out the new 24K Mousse Perfecting Foundation ($98)—Orogold's first foray into color cosmetics.

Quality Control
Evans Analytical Group Inc. (EAG), a global provider of surface analysis and materials characterization services, has acquired Chemir Analytical Services and its affiliates CAS-MI Laboratories and Cyanta Analytical Services.
The acquisitions will expand EAG's investigational, regulatory and product development capabilities across a variety of industries, including the coatings industry, the Sunnyvale, CA-based company said.
Chemir and CAS-MI will continue to operate under their current names, and Cyanta will begin the process to be renamed EAG Life Sciences to reflect its planned expansion of service offerings.
All three laboratories will continue operations at their respective facilities.
Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
Beyond Surface Analysis
The acquisition will allow EAG to better serve the industry-specific needs of its diverse clients, including those seeking to develop novel coating technologies beyond surface analysis investigations, EAG said. Other clients include medical device and pharmaceutical companies.
Clients will also have greater access to industry leading analytical capabilities, to determine the source of product failures or help defend a patent infringement case, and to a worldwide network of laboratories and surface analysis and materials characterization capabilities to support product development and analytical investigations, EAG said. The deal will also shore up and expand the global reach of CAS-MI, Chemir and Cyanta, which have been focused mainly on the U.S. market, officials said.
'A Stronger Partner'
EAG is a global, fully integrated, independent laboratory network, majority owned by Odyssey Investment Partners LLC, a private equity firm with more than $2 billion in capital under management. EAG's Materials Characterization Division provides analytical services focused on surface analysis and materials characterization in support of multiple industries.
EAG CEO Harry Davoody said the acquisition would allow his company to deliver "across a broader range of analytical, test and development offerings."
"The combination of our companies and integrated scope of services means EAG is a stronger partner for our clients, enabling them to more effectively achieve their time to market or solutions goals."
He added: "EAG is committed to providing the resources for Chemir and its laboratories to be a trusted partner for customers' projects on a long-term basis."
About the Companies
CAS-MI Laboratories of Ypsilanti, MI, has provided analytical services for the polymer, paints, coatings, adhesives and sealants industries since 1943. The company also provides outsourced concept-to-commercialization product development for commercial polymer, paint, coating and industrial chemical needs.
CAS-MI Laboratories' services includemanufacturing support and consulting.
CAS-MI specializes in analytical investigations involving deformulation, contaminant identification, products failures, method development and litigation support for paints, coatings, polymers, elastomers and a wide variety of other materials.
Chemir Analytical Services, an independent lab based in St. Louis, MO, has built its reputation by solving challenges associated with product failures across diverse industries. Its services include deformulation (reverse engineering), contaminant and impurity identification, product failure analysis, analytical method development, custom synthesis, polymer characterization and patents.
Chemir provides failure analysis servicesfor a variety of industries.
Cyanta Analytical Services, also of St. Louis, MO, provides services to support pharmaceutical and medical device development. Cyanta's services support early- to late-phase projects, including regulatory analytical investigations.
'Our Share of Hurdles'
David W. Riggs, PE, president of Chemir, said the acquisition would bring much-needed stability to his company.
"Over the past year and a half, we have experienced our share of hurdles," Riggs said, "and with EAG as our new owner, we have the financial resources and stability our clients deserve."
He added: "We believe this acquisition will greatly enhance our failure analysis and investigational capabilities due to EAG's extensive knowledge and instrumentation related to materials characterization and surface analysis."

However, it seems to be making bread just fine. It is a Morphy Richards Fast Bake, so I was most looking forward to making a speedy loaf. Said speedy loaf turned out to be a bit gooey. I suspect this is because I am using 'Value' flour from 'Tesco', so I will give it a whirl with bread flour. However, I am aiming for low-cost bread here. So I gave making rosemary bread a go using the standard timing, and it worked beautifully!
- 2.5 cups of flour
- 5 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of yeast
- 1/4 cup of warm water
- 3/4 cup of normal water
- 1 tablespoon of finely chopped rosemary
- 1 tablespoon of rosemary leaves
- Add the yeast, warm water, olive oil, and salt to the bottom of the bread maker pan.
- Add in half the rosemary
- Throw in the rest of the ingredients
- Add the rest of the rosemary
That was all I needed to do to produce the bread. It tastes amazing:
And not a bird feather in sight.
