Wedding: 8/2/2015
These girls were out of this world! To look your best on your special day - there is only Charlotte Phinney and Co. We used three artists (hair and make-up) We had about 15 girls using the service. Each girl had a unique hair style and make-up application. No two girls looked the same. These artists were creative, professional, efficient, great listeners and great personalities. Charlotte runs a fabulous business. Any questions, all my e-mails came back to quickly (never more than 1 day) and more common in several hours.
The air brush make-up was incredible. Being the brides mother - I shed a few tears - my daughter too (happiness tears) the mascara did not run, the foundation did not rub off even after a million hugs. I did not have to keep checking my make-up - I still looked the same (fabulous) when the reception ended. We looked our best for all the pictures. I did a lot of research as I live in Michigan, and my daughter lives in Florida. I did not know one hair and make-up artist in Boston (where the wedding was held). All my research - Charlotte's name kept coming out in top. I now know why - she (and her girls) are the best of the best.

Cait and AnneMarie did hair and make-up for me, my bridesmaids, my Mom, and Mother-in-Law. I was so nervous about my make-up as I don't typically wear a lot, if any, make-up day-to-day. But they both did a great job and made us all look gorgeous and natural. Their personalities were also so great to work with. They were relaxed, efficient, and both had a great sense of humor.
I think the biggest compliment I can give actually comes from one of my bridesmaids. She used to be a wedding photographer herself. She said to me post-wedding that this was the best hair/make-up team she has ever seen. She was really impressed with the results.
All of the women looked gorgeous that day. I couldn't be happier with how I felt that day and how all of my pictures turned out.
Wedding: 9/7/2013
Definitely the perfect choice for wedding day hair and makeup! Annemarie, Julia and Ashley came to our hotel room to do hair and makeup for myself, my five bridesmaids and my mother, stepmother and mother-in-law. They were on time, stayed on schedule and were overall just a pleasure to work with!
Annemarie was so great during my trial so I knew I could completely trust her on the wedding day! I was a bit nervous about the airbrush makeup at first because I was afraid it may look too heavy, but it looked perfect and stayed on throughout the whole day. I got so many compliments about my hair and makeup and I can't thank Annemarie enough for doing such an amazing job! I would highly recommend Charlotte & Co!!
Wedding: 10/5/2014
Charlotte and Co. were amazing to work with from start to finish! Charlotte was very personable and helped arrange the whole thing. My hair/makeup stylist, Marissa, was fantastic! We had a great time at my hair and make-up trial, which made me feel very at ease for the day of the wedding.
On the day of the wedding Marissa arrived early and did my five bridesmaids' hair styles, my maid of honor's make up and my hair/make-up in exactly the amount of time allotted. I had changed my mind on my hair style after my hair trial (something Marissa says rarely happens!), but she was able to do it just the way I wanted it. It looked SO awesome!! I can safely say I don't think my hair or make up has ever looked better.
If you are looking for someone to do your wedding/hair and make-up in the Boston area, I definitely recommend this company!
Wedding: 9/6/2014
I was so pleased with my hair and makeup done by Anne Marie. Their services are top notch at an affordable price and I appreciated that they travelled to my hotel for no extra cost. I loved my hair and my girls looked beautiful. More importantly, Annemarie made my Mom happy, which as we all know can be the magic key to a great wedding day. I would recommend to anyone!
Wedding: 7/26/2014
Charlotte is very sweet and does an excellent job. I did a trial at her mini salon and knew right away the airbrush would be worth it. She and Giana did both hair and makeup for me, the bridesmaids, mothers and grandmother. Everyone looked great! The airbrush held up in the heat just as expected. Makeup and hair was flawless through the night!
Wedding: 8/9/2014
I hired Julia to do the make-up for myself as well as my bridesmaids. In total, there were five of us. We all loved our make-up which included eyelashes, airbrush make-up and helpful suggestions from Julia. She was fantastic. Julia listened and applied what each bridesmaid wanted for their make-up style. I could not recommend her more!
Wedding: 8/23/2014
I worked with Charlotte Phinney and her team for bridal hair and bridesmaids hair and make up. Each stylist was incredibly thoughtful, kind, patient, and talented. They captured the look each of my bridesmaids was trying to achieve and everyone's hair and make up was done ahead of schedule! Everyone looked so natural, elegant, and stylish when Charlotte and her team were finished. They are amazing!!! They made the morning of the wedding so relaxed and fun too, I cannot express enough how much I enjoyed working with them and highly recommend them for all wedding hair and make up services!
Wedding: 8/30/2014
After reading all the positive reviews on theknot.com, I decided to give Charlotte a try even without doing a trial run. The wedding day makeup and hair styles were gorgeous! The team came in on time (slightly early to prepare) and kept us on schedule and therefore we didn't have to worry about anything regarding our hair & makeup!
Wedding: 7/26/2014
Charlotte Phinney was incredible to work with. She was so responsive and professional in all of my contact with her. Anne Marie did my hair and makeup trial in November, 2013 leading up to my July, 2014 wedding. She was so wonderful to work with- she listened to exactly what I wanted and was very professional, I immediately reserved the wedding date. Anne Marie did the hair for myself, my 4 bridesmaids, my mom and mother in law. She came to the hotel right on time, and I was actually sitting with her drinking my coffee before the craziness of the day started, and she was so calming and nice to be around. I think that is really important in having a hair and makeup artist come to your hotel room or home on the day of the wedding- you want to be around someone who is calm, professional and can laugh- and that was Anne Marie. Anne Marie did my makeup and then Lacie did all of the other girls/moms makeup. Anne Marie and Lacie are so talented. They listened to what everyone wanted and worked quickly and efficiently to stay on time. All of the girls said with the number of weddings they've been in, or have gone to, they've never seen the bride/bridemaid and moms be 100% happy with their hair and makeup and truly, everyone loved their hair and makeup. Anne Marie even stayed right until I left for the church to do any final touch ups. I would highly recommend Charlotte Phinney and Anne Marie.
Wedding: 7/25/2014
Charlotte and Co. were wonderful! I had an absurd number of bridesmaids, and they were perfect for the job. I had looked at a makeup artist who worked solo and hired extra artists when necessary, which raised the price exponentially. Charlotte's employees are all a part of the same team, and they all do hair and make up both, which means both services and multiple people (depending on how many you need) are built into the extremely reasonable price. Most importantly, they did a beautiful job!
Wedding: 8/2/2014
I hired Marissa from Charlotte & Co. to do hair/makeup for my wedding day on August 2, 2014 and she was the best! I honestly cannot say enough about her and this company and do not know where to begin. I found Charlotte & Co through the Knot and hired her based on reviews from other brides. From the beginning, Charlotte was nothing but professional and responsive. She went out of her way to make sure I found a stylist who was the right fit for me on my wedding day and did everything she could to make sure I was happy and comfortable. This is how I ended up with Marissa and could not have been happier.
When I first met Marissa at my trial run, I couldn't help but feel like she was someone I have known for ages. She is such a warm and friendly person and made me feel comfortable with her right from the start. Marissa really listened to what I wanted and worked with me to make sure I got the most perfect style for my wedding day. As a bride, with so many other anxieties, she made me feel at ease so leading up to my wedding day this was one less thing I had to worry about.
On the wedding day, Marissa was on time and let her true talents shine as she so flawlessly pulled together such stunning looks for me and my bridesmaids. A couple of my bridesmaids were skeptical in the beginning because they couldn't imagine someone could do their hair/makeup in such a short amount of time but Marisa is such a natural talent that she had everyone looking beautiful in no time at all. Needless to say, they were all impressed with the final results. All I can say is WOW! Everyone in my bridal party looked stunning and I could not have been happier with the final results.
We also loved the airbrush make up! I would definitely recommend this to any bride on her wedding day…it really does last all day and I didn't even touch up my make up once. I have never received so many compliments about my hair/makeup and neither have my bridesmaids. Even as I showed someone pictures today, they commented on how much they loved my hair and make up and asked me who did it.
So Marissa and Charlotte, thank you! Marissa did an amazing job and really made me feel like the most beautiful bride in the world! I would recommend you guys to anyone!
Wedding: 7/26/2014
Super professional company - great to work with and good results!
Wedding: 7/19/2014
I contacted Charlotte while I was in Singapore. Despite the time zone difference of 12 hours, Charlotte responded very promptly to me and she was able to answer all my questions in the most friendly way over email.
I learnt about Charlotte from reviews and even heard about her by word of mouth. I knew from the start that it would be such a bonus to work with her personally. Thankfully she was available. And of course, I didn't hesitate to quickly secure her time.
On the day of my wedding, she was very flexibility. She showed up at 7am sharp, at my request, at the hotel, despite a long drive from home. Charlotte had gone the extra mile to apply my make-up in the way I had envisioned it. She also took extra steps to ensure my hair had bigger and tighter curls which was an initiative she incorporated on her own after a wonderful hair trial with her. I would totally recommend the hair trial as it saved so much time on the actual day which allowed me to get on as quickly as possible to do my pictures.
My sister and sister-in-law loved their hair and make-up as well. When I got back to the hotel room after a first round of outdoor pictures in the sun, I learnt that Charlotte actually waited for me so that she could quickly do final touch ups on my hair and make-up before leaving. I really appreciated it and couldn't be more grateful for her time.
I would recommend Charlotte to every bride! I'm sure you'll enjoy her wonderful personality as well as her talents, experience and professionalism as much as I did.
Wedding: 7/12/2014
A friend from work recommended Charlotte for hair and make-up. I'm so glad that she did! Right from the start, working with Charlotte was easy.
The trial was great; she tweaked the amount/style of make-up so that the look was exactly what I wanted. My friend had mentioned that I should try the false eyelashes during the trial, so I figured this is the time to go for it. They looked amazing both at the trail and at the wedding!
On the day of, Charlotte arrived exactly on time and was ready to get started. My mom and sister didn't do hair/makeup trials ahead of time, so Charlotte took the time to pause, ask questions, and make sure that they were happy with the hair and make-up as she was working (they were!).
The makeup that Charlotte uses really stays on. I kept meaning to go to the ladies' room during the reception to reapply lipstick, but I was having too much fun. From the pictures, it's clear that the lipstain that Charlotte used stayed on. The airbrushed make-up also withstood the warm temps. at the outdoor ceremony.
I loved the way that I looked on my wedding day and I received so many compliments from friends and family members. Charlotte is wonderful to work with. She's kind, easy, going, and professional. I whole-heartedly recommend her!
Wedding: 6/7/2014
Hiring Charlotte & Company to do hair and make-up at our June, 2014 wedding at the Mountain View Grand Resort & Spa in Whitefield, NH was one of our best decisions. We were planning our wedding from over 7 hours away and were very unfamiliar with the area. Hair and make-up was by far one of the biggest challenges, trying to schedule trials and find someone willing to travel several hours to our venue. We also had a very large bridal party to accommodate. After several trials that went well, but just weren't what I was hoping for, we found Charlotte & Company, and I could tell from the first phone conversation with Charlotte that our search was over. Charlotte was very responsive and flexible. After my trial with Annemarie, I felt such a huge sense of relief, because Annemarie was able to create a look that was exactly what I was dreaming of. Annemarie and Nicky traveled over three hours to the wedding and they were on time, cheerful and kept our very large bridal party on schedule for all of their hair and make-up. Charlotte was also great in helping to organize a schedule to keep everything running on time. Annemarie did my hair and make-up, and it was exactly how she had done it for my trial, if not better. I was so happy with the look, she truly made me feel as special as a bride should feel on her wedding day. Nicky did the hair for the mother of the bride and all of the bridesmaids and Annemarie did all of their make-up. They kept everything on time, so there was no stress and they both were a lot of fun while we were getting ready and helped get the day off to a great start. All of the hair and make-up came out absolutely beautiful and myself, my Mom and all of the bridesmaids loved our looks. We started taking photos several hours pre-ceremony and Annemarie and Nicky stayed to do touch ups right before the ceremony. The hair and make-up lasted all day and night. I was nervous about airbrush, because I had never used it before and don't wear very much make-up, but I loved the look and it was very natural. We could not recommend Charlotte & Company and Annemarie and Nicky enough.
Wedding: 4/19/2014
Charlotte and her team were great on my wedding day. They showed up early at our bridal suite. Everyone loved their hairstyles and makeup. I loved the airbrush makeup. It looked very natural in pictures and also loved my natural looking hairstyle. Charlotte listened to what I wanted and was so nice to everyone on my wedding day.
Wedding: 3/29/2014
I highly recommend booking Charlotte & Co. for your wedding. Charlotte is extremely warm, professional and responsive over email (this is huge when planning a wedding!). On the day of the wedding Charlotte and Brian (make up) were a dream team, efficiently beautifying my three bridesmaids, my mom, my best friend (not a bridesmaid) and myself. Charlotte worked with me to get the look right, and Brian did this awesome, dramatic makeup that was simply spectacular and tailored to each individual. I felt like a movie star, which is how every bride should feel! Brian has a special knack for getting an idea of what you want, picking out the right palette and then just running with it, turning you super glam. Charlotte had all of my girls looking ravishing, and wishing they could do that at home:) As for my hair, although it turned out great, I do regret not doing a trial run before the wedding. It definitely would've been fun to see multiple options for my hair before the big day, when you're nervous and feeling pressed for time even though you're not! That said, my hair looked beautiful and these two are pros who are definitely worth it!
Wedding: 6/29/2013
Charlotte, Joanne, and Gianna did a fabulous job on my wedding day! I met Charlotte first for my trial, and brought along my mother for whom Charlotte was happy to accommodate for a trial as well. Charlotte was amazing--made us both feel comfortable, and when we gave her very little instruction and more-so told her to do whatever she thought was best--she was AWESOME. She took into account what our dresses looked like in her plan, and is clearly a hair and make-up mastermind. Charlotte and her team were all a few minutes early on my wedding day (which was bright and early!), and worked patiently, quickly, and with amazingly high quality through myself, my family, my husband's family, and our wedding party (including three young flower girls). Everyone looked absolutely beautiful and the hair and make-up stayed flawlessly through the end of the night. I would not hesitate to recommend Charlotte to others (I already have!), and would love to use her again for another occasion in the future. Thank you Charlotte (and to your wonderful team!) for doing such a great job on my wedding day, and helping to make me more relaxed when I freaked out about the weather and all the other little details!!
Wedding: 1/5/2014
I hired Charlotte to do my hair and makeup for my wedding, as well as the hair for one of my bridesmaids, and the makeup for my mother. We all loved her. All I had to show her was one picture to give her an idea of the style I wanted and she went to town, and actually, she did a better job than the reference picture I gave her. As far as my makeup was concerned, she understood that I don't wear much makeup, and managed to find the perfect blend for me. I was very impressed.
I highly recommend Charlotte to any bride looking for an on-site hair and makeup artist. She is amazing, professional, and kind.

This is Ivory and Thrift's son! created the character and I filled in the colors for it. ^^ At first, and I couldn't figure out a name for him, but the idea name of Shift came up when while typing, I accidently keep pressing the caps button instead of the Shift button and it suddenly gave me the idea of naming their son. Also, this character will not be paired with any other character. Well, that's it for the day.....
(EXCEPT for *Blinded-Djinn)
I like how you came up with his name! It's funny where inspiration can come from, isn't it?XD
I love Shift's design though, it looks really cool and the colors you chose really blend well together.
I know right? xD It was something silly but I guess it was something. xDDD
Thank you!! I think my friend did a great job with it!

An interracial couple was attacked leaving a waterfront bar in long Island City early Saturday morning, police said.
A group of three men yelled racial slurs at Jacob James-Vogel, 37, and his wife, Billie, 40, as they left the restaurant Shi on Center Boulevard at 2 a.m. As they began to walk away one of the suspects assaulted the couple, according to the NYPD.
Police charged Nikolaos Katsos, 28, with assault and harassment. The charges could be upgraded, police said.
James sustained non-life threatening injuries to his face. His wife was thrown to the ground when she tried to stop the assault and blacked out as her head hit the sidewalk.
Police are still looking for the other two men.

Glass, Lewis & Co. Recommends SandRidge Energy Stockholders Replace A Majority Of The Board
TPG-Axon, beneficial owner of seven percent of the outstanding shares of SandRidge Energy, Inc. (NYSE: SD) (the "Company"), today announced that Glass, Lewis & Co. (Glass Lewis), a leading independent proxy voting and corporate governance advisory firm, has recommended SandRidge stockholders vote the GREEN consent card in support of TPG-Axon's proposals.
Specifically, Glass Lewis recommends SandRidge's bylaws be amended to destagger the Board, that six incumbent directors be removed, including SandRidge Chief Executive Officer Tom Ward, and that independent director nominees Stephen C. Beasley, Edward W. Moneypenny, Dinakar Singh, Alan J. Weber, Dan A. Westbrook and Peter H. Rothschild be elected to the Board. Glass Lewis also recommends stockholders NOT VOTE the white consent card provided by SandRidge.
TPG-Axon recommends stockholders vote its full slate of independent directors including Mr. Beasley, Mr. Moneypenny, Mr. Singh, Mr. Weber, Mr. Westbrook, Mr. Rothschild and Fredric G. Reynolds. TPG-Axon requests that stockholders return their signed and dated GREEN consent cards promptly, to ensure that their consent cards are received by SandRidge prior to March 15, 2013, the deadline for submitting consents.
In its recommendation, Glass Lewis noted the following:
- "We agree with TPG-Axon that independent shareholders would strongly benefit from fresh, external perspectives and a substantial overhaul of board level oversight."
- "…we find an equally dismal corporate governance landscape marred by regressive practices, poorly-implemented compensation policies and a general lack of substantive oversight."
- "As a rule, we are reticent to recommend the removal of incumbent board members, or in favor of dissident nominees, unless one of the following two things has occurred: (i) there are serious problems at the company and the newly proposed nominees have a clear and realistic plan to solve these problems; or (ii) the current board has undertaken an action clearly contrary to the interests of shareholders (or failed to undertake an action clearly to the benefit of shareholders)."
- "We agree with the Dissident that there is sufficient cause to doubt the board's assessment of certain related party transactions, particularly those related to CEO Tom Ward…We believe it is entirely reasonable for independent shareholders to question how the continued involvement of a conflicted CEO could possibly benefit SandRidge over any term…"
- "Taken collectively, we find the foregoing issues strongly indicative of a board sorely unprepared to create or protect shareholder value, or, indeed, effectively oversee a CEO that has, by virtually any meaningful standard, steered SandRidge toward peer-worst performance since the Company's initial public offering. In lieu of offering owners any value-additive rebuttal to these concerns, it appears the board has opted to double down on its poor pattern of practice by adopting a shareholder rights plan and clumsily wielding the threat of violated debt covenants and potential executive severance payments as a cudgel to maintain the status quo."

Red Sky Morning
Hailed as "play of the year" by The Sunday Age, Tom Holloway's award winning Red Sky Morning will make its Brisbane premiere at the Judith Wright Centre from Tuesday 5 to Saturday 9 October 2010.
"Time has taught me how amazing the experience of theatre can be; I mean theatre that grabs you in the guts. Theatre that can give you an experience you've never had before and can't get anywhere else." Holloway said.
"Red Sky Morning is a play where I have tried to capture this experience in a new way. I hope it is not so much a play you go and see, as one you go an experience." he said.
"My hope is that you will sit back and let the words and the rhythm of the work wash over you."
Red Sky Morning is about a family (mother, father and teenage daughter) who are unable to deal with the mother's alcohol addiction and have stopped communicating with each other. Playing to critical acclaim in 2008, Red Sky Morning was nominated for six Green Room Awards in 2009, winning Best New Writing for the Australian Stage. The show was remounted for the 2009 FULL TILT at the Victorian Arts Centre. Developed over a year of readings, workshops and rewrites, Red Sky Morning was commissioned and produced by Melbourne's renowned Red Stitch Theatre (home to Logie Award-winning actor Kat Stewart, of Underbelly and Offspring fame). Red Sky Morning won the 2007 R E Ross Trust Development Award and was funded by Arts Victoria and the Australia Council during the script development process.
Red Sky Morning is brought to life by a stellar Australian cast including David Whitely (Artistic Director of Red Stitch), Sarah Sutherland and Erin Dewar. Australian audiences will be familiar with all three actors; David Whiteley stars in the upcoming film, The Killer Elite with Clive Owen, Robert de Niro and Jason Statham, and has featured in City Homicide ('Serious Men'), the US Beastmaster series, Ponderosa, The Man From Snowy River, Stingers, as well as Neighbours, Blue Heelers, Good Guys Bad Guys and The Hollowmen.

J&J 4Q profit jumps on higher sales, lower chargesBy LINDA A. JOHNSON
The Associated Press | January 23,2013AP PHOTO
Johnson & Johnson products are displayed in Orlando, Fla. Higher sales helped Johnson & Johnson post a much bigger fourth-quarter profit than a year ago, when a slew of charges depressed results.Higher sales of prescription drugs and medical devices helped Johnson & Johnson post a much bigger fourth-quarter profit than a year ago, when a slew of charges depressed results.
However, consumer health product sales dipped and the company again pushed back its timeline for returning recalled products to stores. In addition, J&Js 2013 profit forecast, for $5.35 to $5.45 per share, is below the average analyst estimate of $5.49.
The New Brunswick, N.J., company said Tuesday that net income was $2.57 billion, or 91 cents per share, up from $218 million, or 8 cents per share, in 2011s fourth quarter.
Excluding about $800 million in charges in the latest quarter, earnings would have been $3.38 billion, or $1.19 per share, 2 cents above analysts expectations. The charges include J&Js biggest acquisition ever and increased litigation reserves over recalls of defective DePuy hip implants.
The maker of attention deficit drug Concerta, Acuvue contact lenses and consumer health products such as No More Tears shampoo said revenue totaled $17.56 billion, up 8 percent from a year ago but just shy of analysts average estimate of $17.69 billion.
In late-afternoon trading, J&J shares fell 60 cents to $72.63.
On the whole, the quarter was no problem, said WBB Securities analyst Steve Brozak, adding J&J needs to quickly decide what to do with its $12.5 billion in free cash flow. Are they going to buy, are they going to sell or are they going to stand still?
CEO Alex Gorsky told analysts during a conference call that the company is exploring alternatives such as the sale or spinoff of its Ortho Clinical Diagnostics business. It makes equipment and supplies for detecting and diagnosing conditions such as HIV, diabetes and high cholesterol and for ensuring donated blood is safe.
Johnson & Johnson delivered solid results in 2012, with momentum continuing to build and sales growth accelerating, Gorsky said. As we enter 2013, I believe were well positioned to drive growth in this increasingly competitive, dynamic market.
However, J&Js long-running manufacturing quality problems continue to hurt sales of consumer health products, which were down 3.6 percent in the U.S. and 0.4 percent worldwide at $3.65 billion in the quarter.
The company has issued about 30 recalls of Tylenol and other products since September 2009. Reasons range from nauseating packaging smells to tiny glass and metal shards in liquid medicines.
Costs for upgrades and completely rebuilding one factory, and for lost sales as Tylenol, Motrin, Benadryl and other products remained off store shelves, top $1 billion. Upgrading its factories and getting all the products back in stores has dragged on far longer than the company initially predicted.
We will return a consistent supply of our key products over the course of 2013, Gorsky said, with about 75 percent of the brands getting back on the market.
Two years ago, Gorskys predecessor, Bill Weldon, said all the products would be back in stores by the end of 2011.
They havent turned the corner on the fallout from the string of recalls, said analyst Erik Gordon, a professor at the University of Michigans Ross School of Business. Without the sales added by the Synthes acquisition, overall sales were anemic and medical device and diagnostic sales took a dive.
The $19.7 billion acquisition of surgical trauma equipment and orthopedic implants maker Synthes Inc. last June drove a 14 percent increase in sales of medical devices and diagnostics, J&Js largest segment, to $7.38 billion.
Prescription medicine sales rose 7.1 percent, to $6.53 billion, despite continuing revenue losses to generic competition for several drugs. Newer medicines posted double-digit sales jumps, including HIV drug Prezista, Invega Sustenna for schizophrenia and Simponi and Stelara for immune disorders such as psoriasis.
Gorsky told the analysts the company is poised to take advantage of expected growth of health care sales in developed countries from $5.5 billion in 2012 to $8 billion in 2022.
Brozak said the companys growth assumptions are too optimistic, given that government health programs, particularly in debt-laden European countries, are trying to trim their spending.
Theyre talking about a pie ... thats only growing in terms of demand, but whos going to pay for that demand? he said.
For all of 2012, J&J reported net income of $10.85 billion, or $3.86 per share, on revenue of $67.22 billion. The company expects 2013 revenue of about $71 billion.
During a lengthy presentation on the medical device business the worlds largest managers of its three divisions said they intend to increase market share, partly by expanding sales into more countries.
Other sales-boosting strategies they cited include developing innovative products, such as a new artificial knee with improved range of motion that makes climbing stairs easier. Another is giving customers both clinical and economic value, as with a program J&J developed to speed up each step in treating patients with new hip fractures so theyre sent home from the hospital quicker, saving insurance plans lots of money.MORE IN National / World BusinessNEW YORK Natural gas, the nations most prevalent heating fuel, is getting cheaper just as...

|Connecticut Broadleaf, Maduro
The saga continues....
No matter how long you've been in the cigar game, you're likely quite familiar with Xikar, maker of high-end, industry-leading, lifetime guaranteed cigar accessories. In the world of luxury cigar accessories, Xikar proudly sits pretty atop the pyramid. A few years ago, Xikar rolled out its own premium cigar line, the Xikar HC Series, and folks said they couldn't compete....their talents wouldn't carry over....they'd never succeed. But ten 90+ ratings later (that's 10, count'em), it's safe to say Xikar has proven all doubters: wrong. With that in mind, welcome the latest addition to the HC family - Xikar HC Maduro.
Dressed in a dark, silky-smooth Havana Oscuro wrapper grown in Connecticut, Xikar HC Maduro is jam-packed with a rich combination of long fillers from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic. After aging, these medium to full-bodied handmades deliver a creamy, complex array of coffee, pepper, caramel, leather, and earth. Delicious is an understatement, Xikar HC Maduro is downright heavenly. And now for the really good part....they're starting at just $2.50 apiece.
"C.I. speaks the truth! Delicious is an understatement!"GR of Staten Island, NY
"Sometimes I'm suprised by an exceptional cigar , and this is one of those times . These beauties burn and draw perfectly . There are hints of sweet spice , mild pepper , wood , and earth . Yummie from first lite to nub . Cigars like this are giving me an appriciation for milder maduro flavors . I could smoke these every day and not get tired of them . At these prices I can afford to! Thanks C.I."LW of Sylmar, CA
"Couldn't wait to try these when they arrived yesterday....great looking, well made cigar! The burn is even and slow, but the draw was pretty tight....hoping this improves after some time in the humi."JP of Indianapolis, IN
"Forget the price, damn fine cigar. Smooth and rich, while still a little mild for my tastes. They just came in today, I can only hope they maintain their smooth flavor as they rest. Chocolate caramel toast with a hint of pepper. Nice smoke."CP of Burlington, CT
"This is my Goldilocks cigar. Not too strong not too mild. Just right. Good burn and draw all at an attractive price point. Another winner in the CI stable."GH of Chicago, IL
"Excellent smoke, was very impressed with this cigar, I received 2 cigars in a sampler pack, and I now have it saved in my wish list. I will certainly buy this smoke next time around. 4 STARS. Very even burn, 1.5 inch ash, so it was rolled perfectly in my opinion. A must try cigar (Belisico Torpedo)"BG of Baton Rouge, LA
"I purchased a bundle of these last week when they were the "Weekly Deal" and they arrived Saturday. I normally place all new cigars in the humi for at least a week before trying them. I decided to try these right off the truck and I am glad I did. I am on the third one now and they are a very nice smoke. It is a good looking cigar, good construction, and each of the three I had burned well. The body is medium and the maduro wrapper adds wonderful flavors. For the price I paid I am quite happy with the purchase and I would have paid more now that I have tried them. Great cigar!"JZ of Gotha, FL
"This is a well constructed, medium bodied Maduro with a lot of flavor. Draws smooth, burns slow and even. I poured some scotch and kicked back with this one to unwind for the day. An hour later I am relaxed and feeling pretty satisfied."TP of Lima, OH
"Taste is ok, Draw is way to tight, hard staying lit. Why better maduro's out there for the money. I would not buy these again"JP of PARSIPPANY, NJ
"I received a 5 pack of these with a Xikar cigar caddy combo. I'm new to cigar smoking and still trying to find what I like. I really enjoyed this cigar. It burned even and held a nice long ash. It wasn't too full for my taste. I can't wait to burn through the rest of these and wouldn't mind sharing either."TL of Hauppauge, NY
"Got these with the '12 days of Christmas' sampler and had waited to try them. Pulled on out during the Packers game and was pleAsently surprised. Very attractive cigar with a nice medium maduro burn. Was amazed by the price. Normally cigars this cost have wrapper defects. This one is very nicely wrapped and smokes well. Would recommend to madaro lovers looking for an everyday smoke."TC of Indianapolis, IN
"This is not a good cigar. I received one with a sampler, would not buy them outright. The first few puffs had a bad taste, almost chemical, ammonia would be a good description. After that it leveled out to a bland grassy flavor, that rode out the rest of the cigar. Became harsh early in the final third so I put it down, no loss."JO of Winter Garden, FL
"What an outstanding cigar at such a low price. The CI description is right on target then some. There was nothing about the cigar I didn't like, & so glad I purchased a box of these. If your looking for a great go to cigar, try a few of these. Even burn, great draw, plenty of smoke. This is the kind you smoke till your fingers burn."DM of Hixson, TN
"Not quite what I was expecting from this maduro. Very light flavor (think ghost kiss) that is noticeable on the retrohale. I had the robustos as a free upgrade thrown in and the flavor and body does crescendo as you smoke them but by the time you are done, you're left wanting more and having nothing. I wouldn't seek them out again."JA of Patterson, LA
"Somewhat let down on this HC Maduro. Kind of " Plain Jane " tasting to me. Guess I was thinking it was a Xikar product it was going to be fantastic or at least " pretty good " but it's truly about a 6 on a scale of 10 for me. Wish I could report the satisfying results like others seem to enjoy but like the old saying goes - - - - Experience is a Dear Teacher ! ! !"VT of BLUE SPRINGS, MO
"I must admit I was skeptical of these cigars before I tried them. I was smoking 5 Vegas Alpha Series as my everyday and found they are a terrible brand. They come unwrapped all the time and are just not a quality smoke. It was a night and day difference once I tried the HC though. I have fallen in love with them! They are a fraction of the cost (almost half) of the 5 Vegas and never come unwrapped, burn very even and well, plus the flavor is not too peppery which I attribute to a sub-par brand. I have a Xikkar lighter and have always loved it and I am glad to see that Xikkar puts as much time and care into rolling their own cigars as they do to making high quality, very smokable, fine cigars."BT of OCEAN VIEW, NJ
"Very Nice good smoke for the money."MB of BEREA, KY
"Very nice cigar for the money!"RH of Chicago, IL
"Started out lovely with nice earth and coffee tones. About halfway through though the flavors became muted and it was like a totally different cigar. Couldn't finish smoking and am a little leery of smoking the other one sitting in the humidor.... Shame since the construction and draw were perfect and the first half was wonderful."DW of Los Angeles, CA
"Great cigar, I like a smaller cigar but this is a good one. I did have one tunnel on me though."MT of Allegan, MI
"Notwithstanding some negative reviews, after having smoked some 60 of these, I think this is a great cigar."DM of CHULA VISTA, CA
"This is a truly delicious cigar. Don't let the low price fool you. Well constructed, smooth and slow burning. The taste is fine and smooth. Don't hesitate to buy these as you'll be smoking a fine cigar at a great price."SS of Chapin, SC
"Great taste, although draw is somewhat tight and it was canoeing fairly bad for the first third. Straightened out after that. Would purchase again."GB of Lafayette, IN
"After trying 2 of the milder blends from the HC Taster's pack, I wasn't sure what to expect from the Maduro. I was more than surprised... This is a REALLY good cigar. I'm still trying different brands and learning the differences, but this one is going to be hard to beat for the price."JO of Crossroads, TX
"This is a good looking, well made cigar. The draw is perfect, producing billows of smoke. An excellent taste which I really can't describe. Burned perfectly out of the box and I'm glad I stocked up on these goodies because I am sure they'll even get better with age. Don't let the low price point fool you. Save some cash and buy these, you won't be sorry."SS of Chapin, SC
"Some maduros are mellow and smooth, tucking there complexity just beneath the hints of cocoa, cream & soft leather. Others punch you in the face and douse you with pepper spray. THIS (HC) maduro is "something completely different." Right out of the cellophane, I held this to my nose and was fascinated by the complex aroma - almost like something faintly floral.... While I stashed a few back in my humi, I couldn't wait to try one. Holy $#!t!!! Flavors are right out front AND STAY THERE. I kept pausing throughout the smoke to marvel at this gem. Passed one off to a friend at a music festival over the weekend (9/20/14) and he went ape-$#!t over this thing. Perfect burn, steady draw (Belicoso, btw), great mouth feel, balanced pepper, tons of leather and earth… Not an everyday smoke for me. This one is special. But at these prices?… I may be changing my ways."PS of Decatur, GA
"Great smoke. Got a few as part of a sampler. Will definitely be looking to get some more!"DL of Seaford, DE
"Excellent burn, draw and flavors. I would highly recommend the HC Maduros."SB of Whitesboro, TX
"I'm smoking my second of these bad boys, HC Maduro Torpedo-sized from the CI Boutique Beauties sampler... A bit of backstory - My new neighbor (I moved to FL this year) saw me smoking a cigar and struck up a conversation, and then highly recommended the CI Sampler I mentioned. He said he loved mild, smooth cigars (which is right up my alley) and they were all great cigars and tremendous value. The Good News: He was right...they were all great smokes and this is no exception. This is a beautiful, pretty smoke... gorgeous silky brown wrapper and perfect construction. BUT - It's NO JOKE! I had no idea the sampler was all Maduro cigars... and powerhouses! I am much MUCH more a Montecristo and Dominican/Connecticut Shade guy than a Puros Indios/Bahia and Honduras/Maduro guy.... BUT HAVING SAID THAT, This spicy, rich cigar is a fine, fine smoke. Pretty flavorful and lots of spice come out from the beginning and this Maduro wrapper is no walk in the park, but very well made and very enjoyable. Just not exactly a breakfast -smoke. Plenty of spicy, full-bodied notes on the palate and a pretty, perfect burn with crisp white ash and even draw. Cannot go wrong here, especially if a true medium-to-full body cigar is your bag, baby."DM of Dunnellon, FL
"Good smoke. Well worth the price."JS of DPO, AE

Real-life couple Nick Offerman (Parks and Recreation) and Megan Mullally (name a sitcom and she's done an arc) go for anything but laughs in Annapurna, a two-person drama about love, loss, and not remembering why you lost that love. (The New Group production runs through June 1 at Off Broadway's Acorn Theatre.) Offerman plays Ulysses, a former celebrated poet and professor, now withering away in a bug-infested trailer in ''the ass crack of the Rockies.'' He's perfectly pathetic, shuffling around in nothing but a filthy apron and a backpack with an oxygen tank that pumps air through a nose tube to his failing lungs, and frying up rancid sausage for his relentless barker of a dog. That is until his ex-wife, Emma (Mullally), barrels in with all kinds of luggage, emotional and literal.
The 90 minutes of banter sometimes heartbreaking, always sharp revolves around why Emma left Ulysses in the middle of the night two decades earlier with their son, now 25. The build-up is so strong to those final moments when Ulysses' actions are finally revealed that you expect a Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? climax. Sharr White's script doesn't pack the same emotional gut punch, but that's no reason to dismiss this fine work. White's dialogue pops, especially when the extraordinary Offerman adroitly hops from desperate to lovestruck to angry to devastated. If that's not enough Offerman for you, be sure to sit in the left side of the audience. You'll never think of him as cheeky in quite the same way again. B+(Tickets: Telecharge.com)

The officer was responding to report of a disturbance Thursday night when he was shot multiple times, according to a statement from the Middlesex district attorney's office and Cambridge police. It said there were no other victims.
MIT said on its website right after the shooting that police were sweeping the campus in Cambridge and urged people to remain indoors until further notice. People were urged to stay away from the Stata Building, a mixed use building with faculty offices, classrooms and a common area.
Hours later, MIT said the campus was clear.
The shooting came little more than three days after the twin bombings on the Boston Marathon that killed three people, wounded more than 180 others and led to an increase in security across the city.
The shooting took place about 10:30 p.m. outside an MIT building, according to state police spokesman Dave Procopio.
The officer, who was not immediately identified, was taken to a hospital where he was pronounced dead from his wounds.
About 11,000 people attend the prestigious university.

That's right everyone, the hedgie has arrived. My husband and I picked him up on Saturday in North Port Florida. That is about 4 hours away from our home, so it was truly a day trip. We arrived at the breeder's home around 1:30pm, and she opened the door with our new little baby in her hands. We immediately went inside and she handed him over to me. Now, I will be honest with you here...I don't think I listened to anything else once I had him in my hands. I was just so focused on him. I fell in love instantly. Thank goodness my husband took everything in.
The breeder, Shelly, was so sweet. She answered all of our questions, made sure that we understood everything, and she even introduced us to her other hedgehogs. She has about 15! They were so cute, and we even got to see the brand new babies that just arrived. Shelly made sure that we knew that hedgehogs need about a week to adjust to their new families. During that adjustment period they will be standoffish and shy. We were there about 30 minutes, and then we were on our way home.
We decided to name our little guy Oy. We have been debating names for a couple of weeks now, and we chose Oy as an homage to one of our favorite novel characters. So no, his name is not Oy as in Oy Vey. :) Although my friends like to tease me about that. We have been spending at least an hour a day with him since Saturday to help him get used to us and the noises in our house like dogs barking and our neighbors "music". He is doing well so far, but he has raised his quills a lot. Yes they hurt. But only if he is really frightened. He really is just trying to make us leave him alone when he does it. Shelly assured me that this is only temporary. When he is playing or snuggling in his blanket with me on the couch he is soft to the touch.
Ok, I know you are all just dying for pictures, but let me warn you first. He is CONSTANTLY in motion. He is so playful, and he is darn near impossible to photograph. But I do have a few really cute blurry photos to share.
Here he is with my husband. They are doing great together. Animals are naturally drawn to him.
Most hedgehogs love to play with toilet paper tubes. I don't know why, but man they go berserk! Oy played with this one for at least 30 minutes. He rolled it around, stuck his head in it, and chased it.
Everyone asks me, "why do you want a hedgehog?". It's the same reason some people buy a puppy, or a cat. A hedgie is a great pet. I grew up on a farm, and I honestly miss being around so many different types of animals. Plus hedgies are so cute, they are low maintenance, they are playful and smart. If you want to read more about them you can read the Wiki or go to Hedgehog Central. Oy is absolutely adorable, and we love him dearly. I will continue to share photos (hopefully some decent ones).
Now for the contest. I have put together a fantastic hedgehog themed prize. The winner will receive the Fiber Trends Huggable Hedgehog pattern, the yarn needed to make one hedgie, and child proof eyes. Just leave a comment between now and Sunday night to enter your name. Monday morning I will use a random number generator to pick the winner. Make sure you come by on Monday to see if you have won.

Kids take-over National Museum Cardiff!
Last Thursday 14th November Year 6 pupils from Trelai Primary School took part in National Taking Over Museums Day - a celebration of children and young people's contribution to museums, galleries and heritage sites across the UK.
The pupils worked with Learning Staff and Natural Science Curators at the National Museum Cardiff to help develop content for a new family science exhibition, which is due to open in July 2014.
Pupils gave us feedback on existing science galleries, chose objects for the exhibition and tested some potential activities for this hands-on exhibition.
It was a really successful day and the feedback from the children was so insightful, with lots of really useful ideas that will help inform our planning of the exhibition.
We're really looking forward to inviting them back to the exhibition launch in July.
More information on Kids in Museums can be found here:
Spooky Specimens!
On Wednesday 30th October, National Museum Cardiff came alive for a haunting day of Halloween fun. Curators (and witches!) from the Natural History department filled the main hall with spooky specimens from our collections to share with the public on a busy half term day.
The botanists made a real impression by opening up the Herbarium and creating a spooky graveyard of deadly plants. This was a real hit with the children who left repeating some of the delightfully ghoulish names to their parents such as "Stinking Hellebore!" and "Bloody Cranesbill!"
The Fungus table had a case of wonderful wax models where you could match each fungus with its creepy name, such as the Trumpet of Death, Scaly Tooth and Witch Heart. Children, and adults, could make their own fungus with the colourful modelling clay provided, creating some amazing new species!
Two witches stirred their potion in a cauldron alongside an eerie 'Herbs in Medicine and Magic' display. All Harry Potter fans would have immediately recognised the famous Mandrake, a plant often used in magic rituals due to its hallucinogenic properties, but there was no need for ear muffs as the real plant does not let out a fatal scream!
Marine and Mollusc curators put out an array of Halloween treats from ghost slugs and dead man's fingers to blood cockles and pumpkin snails. Visitors enjoyed being able to touch sea urchins, spiny oysters and star fish. The pickled cuttlefish and squid were a real treat and produced a great mixed response, from awe to disgust, from children and adults alike.
The giant bloodsucking mosquito model dominated the Entomology stand whilst a witch displayed a table of British bats, from the largest Noctule to the smallest Pipistrelle.
Geologists enticed visitors with 'fossils in folklore', including echinoderms that were thought to be 'fairy loaves', and 'dragon claws' that come from dinosaurs. Those brave enough stayed to see the 'Hell, Fire and Brimestone!' stand which revealed specimens of larva, ash and volcanic rocks.
The Open Day was underpinned with an educational trail provided by the Education department. The trail took children around all of the displays, answering questions on blood stained petals and thunder stones, fungal fingers and tails of worms, to name a few. It was an excellent way to get families involved and encouraged children to interact with the curators. The trail proved to be extremely popular with 170 families taking part.
For those who wanted to know more, there was a scary 'Dragons' tour in the Evolution of Wales gallery and two behind the scenes tours of the Biology and Geology collections.
The day was a real success with 3127 members of the public coming through the museum doors. So, if you didn't make it this time keep your eyes peeled on the 'What's On' guide for more upcoming Natural History Open Days throughout the year.

Fuel Combustion Lab
NREL's Fuel Combustion Laboratory focuses on characterizing fuels at the molecular level. This information can then be used to understand and predict the fuel's effect on engine performance and emissions. By understanding the effects of fuel chemistry on ignition we can develop fuels that enable more efficient engine designs, using both today's technology and future advanced combustion concepts.
This lab supports the distributed Renewable Fuels and Lubricants (ReFUEL) Laboratory, and the Biofuels activity.
Ignition Quality Tester
The central piece of equipment in the Fuel Combustion Laboratory is the Ignition Quality Tester (IQT™). The IQT™ is a constant volume combustion vessel that is used to study ignition properties of liquid fuels.
The IQT™ consists of three components: 1) a cabinet that houses temperature controllers and other electronics, 2) a base tool cabinet that houses a closed-loop cooling system, and 3) the main combustion vessel unit. The heart of the main unit is the constant volume combustion chamber designed so that fuel contact with the walls is minimal. Nine cartridge heaters controlled to maintain a constant chamber temperature surround the combustion chamber. A high-speed pressure transducer measures chamber pressure to detect fuel ignition. Air-actuated intake and exhaust valves are used to feed fresh charge air and to vent combustion product gases. Fuel samples are injected into the combustion chamber through a pintle-type injector nozzle.
The IQT™ unit is interfaced with a computer that allows the user to set temperature and pressure conditions as well as to process the experimental data. A typical experiment consists of 47 separate injections — 15 preinjections to reach steady state temperatures and 32 measurements of the actual ignition delay. The ignition delay is determined as the time difference between when the injector opens and where the pressure begins to increase.
Unregulated Emissions Measurement
The Fuels Chemistry Laboratory also houses equipment for measuring toxic unregulated exhaust emissions. This is important to better understand the impacts and compliance of advanced engines and fuels being proposed for high fuel-efficiency transportation. A gas chromatograph (GC) will allow for the speciation and quantification of C1-C12 hydrocarbon emission including 1,3-butadiene and benzene — both carcinogens being considered by CARB for future regulations. Gaseous exhaust samples are collected in passivated Summa canisters that are cleaned and evacuated prior to use. A preconcentrator will soon be acquired that will allow for detection at sub-ppbv levels. A high performance liquid chromatograph (HPLC) will quantify emissions of aldehyde and ketone, which are known to be pulmonary irritants. These carbony emissions are collected on DNPH adsorbent cartridges and eluted with acetonitrile for analysis via HPLC. Both of these capabilities allow NREL researchers to better understand potential impacts (positive or negative) that alternative fuels may have.
