David Eccles, President. Thomas D. Dee, Vice-Prest. Henry H. Rolapp, Sec'y. James Pingree, Treas. The Ogden Sugar Company. Ogden, Utah, June 6/02 Hiram H. Spencer, Joseph Clark, Fred J. Kiesel, John Scowcroft, Ephraim P. Ellison, Adam Patterson, Chas. W. Nibley. Personal H. 0. Haverneyer, Esq. New York City. Dear Sir: After consultation with some of my associates here at home. I hereby notify you that the proposition agreed upon between you and I in relation to the three sugar factories situate at Ogden, Utah, Logan, Utah and LaSranue Oregon, will be accepted; and I have been and still am busy securing one-half of the stock from each of the main stockholders of our present corporations with the understanding, however, that the consolidation will be carried out as previously understood, ""While I at first thought that the transfer from us to you had better Mill the consolidation, upon investigation and con¬sideration I have come to the conclusion that I might have some difficulty in getting some of the stockholders in the various organizations to agree to dispose of half of their stock at a reduction of l0% from a stock, which after its issuance will unquestionably have a par value upon the salt Lake market; but at present before such stockholders have an exact knowledge of the extent of our assetts I can accomplish the matter more easily and more satisfac¬torily. I have therefore proceeded upon this line, and will be able within a week to turn over to you one-half of all the issued stock of the present corporations for the sum mentioned between us, to-wit: one-half of $2,303,850.00 or $1,151,925.00. Of course in making this transfer it must be understood that your stock will vote in favor of the consolidation of these factories upon the terms provided for prior to my seeing you.That is to say, the total capital stock of the new consolidated company will be four million dollars,divided into 40,000 shares of the par value of one hundred dollars each; David Eccles, President. Thomas D. Dee, Vice-Prest. Henry H. Rolapp, Sec'y. James Pingree, Treas. The Ogden Sugar Company. Ogden, Utah, June 6/02 Hiram H. Spencer, Jeseph Clark, Fred J. Kiesel, John Scowcroft, Ephraim P. Ellison, Adam Patterson, Chas. W. Nibley. Personal 2/3 of the stock to be preferred and 1/3 common, Under the agreement to incorporate and consolidate it is understood that there shall be issued to the various stockholders in the three factories aggregately $1,701,000.00 preferred and $850,500.00 common stock, making a total of $2,551,500.00; leaving the remainder in the treasury. Of course the difference between the payment to be made by you, and the par value of the stock coming to you, occurs by reason of the reduction of the $247,650.00 from the figures original¬ly presented by me to you. It is of course also desirable that we should have the necessary money here prior to the transfer, so that we can issue to each of the present stockholders so much stock in the new corporation as half of his present holding would demand, and pay cash for the balance; and if you desire it, I can come to New York at once, but I must return before the date set for the consolidation, which is July 3rd, and can then deliver to you the stock and have the transfer all completed before the public shall have become advised of the change or the terms thereof. Of course there are some other details relating to the incorporation,and transfer,concerning which I had not sufficient information at the time of our conversation to consult you upon, and I find that in the articles of incorporation, which were drawn while I was away, it is provided that the new corporation shall have eleven directors; the purpose of making the number so large being so that we might retain as directors some of the large stock¬holders and some of the wholesale grocers, who are heavy consumers of sugar, and who are at present associated with us as directors. Of course to you will be cheerfully accorded the privilege, if you so desire it, to designate as near as can be one-half of the directory to act as your representatives upon the board, and when so designated such persons will be promptly elected 3 and duly installed; or if you are not at present prepared to make such selec¬tions, we will at any time in the future arrange for resignations sufficient to enable your appointees to be elected. The articles also provide that the first board of directors shall serve until the first Monday in March 1907; this was done so as to insure to the people the same guarantee that was ac¬corded the Utah Sugar Company that home interests would not be affected. I have talked with my associates about the propriety of reducing the dividend on the preferred stock to 6% and inasmuch as the balance of the earnings will belong to the same stockholders anyhow, and accrue to them upon their common stock, we have adopted your suggestion in this matter, and consequently changed the draft of the articles accordingly. I have ordered prepared for your use a detailed statement of the assetts and liabilities of the three companies, which statement should show net assetts aggregating at least $500,000000 over and above all liabilities and exclusive of the factories and sites. If there are any other details or arrangements that you desire to suggest with reference to the transfer, which can be provided for before the final signatures to the consolidated articles, which takes place on July 3rd, I shall be very pleased to have them submitted and acted upon. Kindly acknowledge the receipt of this letter, confirming our understanding, and advise me in mediately whether you desire me to come east to consummate this matter. The beet crop is very promising at all at our factories, and we look for a very successful seasons run. Yours Truly David Eccles

At the $0.99 Cents store the other day I was delighted to find Back to Nature Crispy Oatmeal Cookies. I have seen them many times on the shelves of my neighborhood grocery store, but for some reason I hadn't tried these before - and I've tried many, many Back to Nature goodies.
Can you say delicious delights three times fast? You better learn how if you plan on eating these cookies. Most of the time, when you find an oatmeal cookie, you also find chewy raisins, but not with Back to Nature's variety. One bite into these crispy cookies relinquishes a subtly sweet, honey-like taste. The crunchy cookie snaps with each bite and turns into a smooth and sinful tasting mouthful. Though there are no gooey raisins dispersed throughout the batter, the raisins make a slight appearance in the form of raisin paste, which adds a hint of natural sweetness to the cookies.
A serving of 2 Back to Nature Crispy Oatmeal Cookies provides 120 calories, 8% off the daily value for total fat, no saturated fat, less than one gram of fiber, 8 grams of sugar and 1 gram of protein. The ingredient list is very basic, which is appreciated, but alas, Back to Nature uses unbleached enriched flour. The benefits of choosing these cookies over the average brand is the use of non-hydrogenated oils, no artificial preservatives, flavors or colors, no high fructose corn syrup, plus the use of unrefined sugar, natural rolled oats, real honey and just a touch of cinnamon to finish it off.
I have seen Back to Nature Crispy Oatmeal Cookies on sale for as low as $2.50. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed these cookies and could see myself buying them again. But curiously, a 25 gram Nutridel Almond Cookie provides half the calories - 59 calories and 2 grams of fat - which means, these will definitely have the upper hand when I'm on the hunt for cookies. And Nutridel cookies are made with all natural ingredients as well.

Surfaces are a special class of topological spaces that crop up in many places in the world of mathematics. In this unit, you will learn to classify surfaces and will be introduced to such concepts as homeomorphism, orientability, the Euler characteristic and the classification theorem of compact surfaces.
By the end of this unit you should be able to:
- explain the terms surface, surface in space, disc-like neighbourhood and half-disc-like neighbourhood;
- explain the terms n-fold torus, torus with n holes, Möbius band and Klein bottle;
- explain what is meant by the boundary of a surface, and determine the boundary number of a given surface with boundary;
- construct certain compact surfaces from a polygon by identifying edges;
- explain how a surface in space can be regarded as a topological space;
- explain the terms orientable and non-orientable with regard to surfaces;
- describe the projective plane, and explain why it is non-orientable;
- outline the connections between the projective plane and the Möbius band;
- explain the terms subdivision and Euler characteristic;
- draw a subdivision of a given surface and calculate its Euler characteristic;
- appreciate that the Euler characteristics of all subdivisions of a given surface are the same;
- state and use the Classification Theorem for surfaces;
- explain the term identification topology;
- explain why an object obtained by identifying pairs of edges of a polygon is a surface.

This unit is concerned with a special class of topological spaces called surfaces. Common examples of surfaces are the sphere and the cylinder; less common, though probably still familiar, are the torus and the Möbius band. Other surfaces, such as the projective plane and the Klein bottle, may be unfamiliar, but they crop up in many places in mathematics. Our aim is to classify surfaces – that is, to produce criteria that allow us to determine whether two given surfaces are homeomorphic.

Researchers analyzed the dietary habits of 38,022 women not previously diagnosed with AMD. This included their intake of the omega-3 fatty acids EPA & DHA. The women with the highest consumption of DHA had a 38% reduced risk of developing AMD. Carilyn Anderson, President of Carlson Laboratories, stated, "Research continues to reveal the extraordinary benefits of omega-3 fatty acids. DHA is highly concentrated in the eyes, so it makes sense that high dietary intake of the omega-3 would support healthy eye structures. For those individuals that don't eat an oily fish diet, supplementation is a convenient alternative." Carlson Laboratories has an extensive line of eye care products that includes Norwegian fish oils, high in the omega-3 fatty acids EPA & DHA. Carlson also offers unique eye care supplements, which were specially formulated to promote lasting vision as we age.

The national best-selling author of Royal Blood whisks her heroine away to the French Riviera for fun-and danger.
Lady Georgiana Rannoch has once again been called into service by Her Majesty the Queen. This time she's sent to Nice on a secret assignment that's nothing to sneeze at: recover the Queen's stolen snuff box.
As much of an honor as it is to be trusted by Her Majesty, an even greater honor awaits Georgie in Nice - as Coco Chanel herself asks Georgie to model her latest fashion. But when a necklace belonging to the Queen is stolen on the catwalk, Georgie has to find two priceless items - and solve a murder. How's a girl to find any time to go to the casino?
Listen to more Royal Spyness mysteries.
©2011 Janet Quin-Harkin (P)2011 Audible, Inc.
"Katherine Kellgren's performance encompasses an astonishing range of personalities while remaining true to her impoverished sleuth's impeccable enunciation…Kellgren, undaunted by the burgeoning cast of characters, supplies plenty of distinctive accents and jaunty tones. The delighted listener wants the story to go on and on." (Audiofile)
"Fans of Peter Lovesey''s hilarious books transforming the future Edward VII into an unlikely sleuth will relish Bowen''s whimsical fifth Royal Spyness mystery starring Lady Georgiana Rannoch, 34th in line to the British thrown (after 2010''s Royal Blood). Bowen successfully melds a whodunit with comedy as few contemporary writers can." (Publishers Weekly, starred review)
"The best part of this delicious series is the cast of characters (well known and otherwise), led, of course, by the level-headed and stiff- upper-lipped Georgiana, who tackles whatever is in front of her, be it murder or romance, with uncommon relish. A royal romp." (Booklist)
"Lots of good fun"
This was a great easy read. Lots of fun and well done. The books are easy to figure out but there are always some nice things added in and the characters are funny and light hearted. Georgie is getting more clever and it would be nice to actually have her figure it out before she gets herself in a pickle. Having said that though, there are lots of adventures, parties and interesting (and often shallow) people. The narrator is enjoyable. Ms Bowen is good at coming up with interesting ideas and is entertaining. If you are interested in an easy fun time, this is a book you will enjoy. Funny characters and lots of bridget jonesque girl fun with a good accent.
"Very NICE!"
I love the Royal Sypness Mystery books. Rhys Bowen must have a great sense of humor because there are plenty of times while I'm listening to her books that I laugh out loud. The writing is excellent and the story is creative and entertaining.
I only wish that Georgie and Darcy could be paired up to solve a mystery together and that their romance was spiced up considerably.
I've listened to the whole series and the narrator is wonderful and truly brings the whole story to life. I'll definitely listen to more audiobooks narrated by Katherine Kellgren. She's GREAT!
I can't wait for the next Royal Spyness Mystery.
"Murder mystery for the delicately nurtured"
A murder mystery for the delicately nurtured, or those who merely wish to escape the daily grind and grittiness. In the Miss Marple genre, but with a heroine who has youthful, girlish exuberance and the patina of royalty. This is the latest delightful instalment in this lighthearted series, which never fails to provide enough plot twists and surprises, to keep the listener engaged. Perfect for an overnight transatlantic flight or for cheering up time spent dreary waiting rooms.
This audiobook is a perfect confluence of author and narrator. It is a hilarious book with a mystery plot and many excellent lines from various characters. The author's previous books in this series were funny, but had weak mystery plots. This book has both excellent characters and plot. The narrator does an absolutely perfect French accent, adding immensely to the listening pleasure. I was a bit leery that the author had included famous people as characters in her book, but she nails them in the book. They are portrayed very accurately and well.
This is the sort of book that lingers in the listener's mind for a long time and with pleasure. I recommend this book for hours of delight.
"Devoured it"
I will keep this short. I started listening to this series earlier this week. I am all caught up now and feeling really despondent that there are not anymore to listen to now. A great mix of mystery, humor, history and romance. There is not a dull moment. The heroine is fabulous, fun supporting cast and a truly fabulous setting.
Katherine Kellgren could read the phone book and make it sound fun.
Baltimore book lover
"Such a delight"
I enjoy this series so much and this book in partuclar because the getting-repetitive love interest figures very little. However, Coco Chanel and the often absent mother are nice additions. The main character, who is a minor and penniless royal, is sent by the Queen of England to the French Riviera to quietly retrieve stolen item of her majesty's. Of course it's never as simple as it starts out. The mystery is challenging, yet not too dour or dark in tone. The author does a good blancing act in this respect. The setting is well described and lively. The reader is top notch and I enjoy every word and detail.
"Great series. Fabulous narrator"
Read these in order if you can. Just started with the first in the series and read straight through them all!! The stories are great and the reader is one if the best. Her ability to use different accents and voices really makes the stories come to life.
A few must reads: Mr. Mercedes, Narrows Gate, Cop Town, Bomb Proof, Wayfaring Stranger, The Son (Nesbo), Dept Q series...
"It's simply a fun and clever escape!"
I picked this up because I felt like I needed a break. Every Royal Spyness novel is light, funny, engaging and educational. I always find myself smiling while listening to Rhys Bowen novels.
Wine, food and travel writer, editor, and aspiring novelist.
"The Most Fun I've Had in the Last Six Months"
Having not read the print version, it may be presumptuous of me to say, but I can't imagine that the audio version isn't far superior. Katherine Kellgren is mesmerizing. Her command of different English accents is amazing, and this is the first time I've heard totally believable English and American accents from the same narrator. Hats off and a deep bow to Katherine Kellgren (thanks so much for an entertaining read!).
This is an unusual series, in that it combines mystery with humor and romance. All three elements are in play at all times, and that in itself creates a pleasant tension within the story.
She can do a dozen different characters and accents, men and women, and keep them separate. It's like listening to a cast recording. Kellgren is simply amazing, and she makes the story come alive in a way that I've rarely experienced.
Yes, though I was unable to listen all in one sitting, I have to admit to stealing time that was otherwise allotted.
This is a perfect match of author to narrator. I'd like to give them both a hug.
Love audiobooks for commuting and anywhere really.
"Lady Georgie Comes Into Her Own"
This series has definitely become my guilty pleasure. I have listened to all of the previous editions in the Her Royal Spyness series, and they were all enjoyable, but in this one, Lady Georgiana really hits her stride as a character.
I won't give any spoilers, but some of the best parts of this story include the inclusion of Coco Chanel and Lady Georgiana's mother, who has a more inclusive role in this story. I am not very familiar with the life of Coco Chanel, but if she was anything like the way she was portrayed fictionally, I would be eager to learn more about such an icon. Rhys Bowen has previously portrayed real life persons as characters and they were very like their real life personae to the knowledge I have of them.
I don't feel the perceived absence of Darcy O'Mara detracts from the story, because it is really a non-issue, he is still present in the thoughts of Lady Georgiana, and it was nice to have the introduction of someone who could possibly take his place. [I can not believe I am commenting on romantic complications between two fictional characters, I suppose I will be reading Regency Romances before long (no offense to lovers of that genre).

#TalkEarly was created with a simple goal in mind: Empower parents to be confident about their own decisions regarding alcohol, model healthy, balanced behaviors and create a foundation for starting conversations with their kids from an early age.
By joining forces with influential parenting bloggers, we at The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility hope #TalkEarly inspires more conversations between parents and friends while providing parents with the tools to continue such dialogue with their kids for years to come. We want families to talk early, talk often and be healthy.

Parents looking for answers to their child's genitourinary problems will find the most advanced, family-friendly pediatric urology treatment services available at the Clark-Morrison Children's Urological Center at UCLA. From the simplest to the most complex conditions, the Center addresses urologic problems such as obstructed kidneys, urinary tract infections, undescended testes, bedwetting, spina bifida and more.
The Center provides a comprehensive approach to pediatric urology care. Our goal is to minimize your child's discomfort and stress while streamlining the diagnostic and treatment process. In many cases, parents can obtain a treatment recommendation on their first visit. The Center offers extensive use of noninvasive diagnostic testing and treatments whenever possible and a multidisciplinary approach to pediatric urology care.
Established in 1995, The UCLA Pediatric Urology Program offers the latest advances in diagnostic and treatment services, as well as patient education. Services are provided in the state-of-the-art Clark-Morrison Children's Urological Center, which offers a child-friendly approach to pediatric urology care.
As a part of the Department of Urology at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, the Center offers many diagnostic testing and treatment services developed - and found only at - UCLA. Pediatric urologists at the Center work in consultation with radiologists, orthopaedists, endocrinologists, nephrologists, and neurosurgeons to provide care for children with urologic conditions.
In 1999, a grant from the Wallis Foundation of Santa Barbara funded the development of the Spina Bifida Center to help children with this condition become healthy, independent adults. In addition to workshops for parents, the project included the development of the My Spina Bifida Handbook, which provides a wealth of knowledge and resources for patients and parents alike. It is published in English with a Spanish companion text underway.
The UCLA Pediatric Urology Program has developed numerous innovations in pediatric surgery including cystoplasty, pyeloplasty, management of ureteral reflux and hypospadias. A unique approach to hypospadias repair incorporates a dartos flap (which reinforces the repair). Faculty members developed the CIPI urodynamic system, which has become the gold standard for urodynamic studies. CIPI simultaneously tests and images the emptying, storage, and holding capability of the lower urinary tract, presenting color-coded results via computer.

"If ever you miss a dinner date with your girlfriend, common sense tells you that you'd better have a good excuse. Which I did… on both counts. And my excuse was outstanding. I was attacked… by a lion… at an office party… in a strip club… in Jo'burg. Well… ok… let me go back to the beginning." And so starts 'Wild', a highly-entertaining one-man show starring multi-award breaking comic Robert Fridjhon.

How to Hang HDTVs Using Wall Anchors
While it's always best to hang a TV by securing the mount directly to wall studs, sometimes that's just not possible. Your new home might be framed with metal studs. Maybe you want to hang your TV over a (non-operational) fireplace. Or, if you're like me, the wood stud is simply in a bad location. Here are two ways to hang a LCD/LED using wall anchors.

While Mardi Gras has become a fixture of New Orleans culture, the holiday does not have its earliest roots in the city. The Mardi Gras/Fat Tuesday tradition began centuries before in Rome as a religious holiday that marked the last day before Lent, or Ash Wednesday.
The custom spread to France where it then traveled to the French American colonies at the tail end of the 17th century. On March 2, 1699, French-Canadian explorer Jean Baptiste Le Moyne Sieur de Bienville set up camp about 60 miles south of New Orleans. Knowing that March 3 was being celebrated as a major holiday back in France, Bienville named the spot "Pointe du Mardi Gras."
In 1703, the first Mardi Gras in America was celebrated in what is now Mobile. In 1704, the secret society Masque de la Mobile was founded as a precursor to today's Mardi Gras krewes. In 1710, the Boeuf Gras Society was established and paraded from 1711 through 1861.
New Orleans was founded in 1718, and by the 1730s, Mardi Gras was celebrated openly in the form of elegant society balls, which became the basis of today's Mardi Gras ball tradition. In 1781, the Perseverance Benevolent & Mutual Aid Association was the first of hundreds of New Orleans' carnival organizations.

Pastors, Youth Leaders, and Youth Volunteers,
For the past year, Family Life has been sending out Youth Resource Connections - a monthly newsletter featuring upcoming youth events in the Family Life listening area, an editorial letter, and various other resources.
Family Life understands that the needs of the church are constantly changing. In order to serve you better, last month we asked for feedback on how helpful this resource was for you. Due to the response to that request, we have decided not to continue Youth Resource Connections. The growing number of local youth leaders and pastors that are now networking and sharing more events within their area is exciting! However, this also has shown us that our BREAK Youth Resources website is no longer needed. We sincerely hope that if you are not connected to a local group of youth leaders who meet regularly, that you will find a group in your area or we encourage you to start one.
We wish to thank those who sent in events and shared resources. If you feel that you still need an avenue for advertising your event, please go to Family Life's Community calendar page (click here) and submit your event information for a free Public Service Announcement (PSA). A PSA provides a free 20 sec on air advertising of your event, as well as displays it on our online community calendar.
There are many national youth resource organizations and I encourage you to check them out. Simply Youth Ministry, National Network of Youth Leaders, Youth Ministry 360, and Download Youth Ministry to name a few.
As Family Life's portion of Youth Resourcing comes to a close, I once again urge you to be in community with fellow youth leaders. People are the body of Christ, (His hands and feet) and nothing will be more encouraging to you as a youth leader, and more powerful to your ministry as a whole, than being in fellowship with fellow laborers in your local community.
I pray God richly blesses your ministry,
Katie Bernier

The Local Spin: You, me and musicBy Ali Flewelling
Arts Correspondent | February 27,2013There's a lot in store for music lovers in the days ahead. Whether you want to participate, sit back and enjoy, or do a little of both, this week gives you the opportunity to do all three. With some unique venues and performances coming up, you may want to reserve a seat ahead of time.
Tonight, Chad Hollister is back in town to perform at the new Taps Tavern in Poultney. Hollister will play solo starting at 7 p.m. This is a great venue and an opportunity to catch this hometown favorite.
In addition tonight, The Peacheaters will perform late night at the Pickle Barrel on Killington Road in Killington.
Rather than classify themselves as a tribute band, the group says they are "an Allman Brothers experience."
On Friday, aspiring local musicians have the chance to show their skills in Chittenden. The Church of the Wildwood on Holden Road is hosting an open mic night at 7 p.m. Interested individuals are asked to call Donna Martin at 483-2234 to secure a spot on stage.
As we've seen all winter, Killington is famous for hosting our favorite musicians back to back, and this week is no different. On Friday night, The Wobbly Barn invites you to see Temporary Grace at 9:30 p.m.
You can also join the Joey Leone Trio at the Outback on Friday night and the Joey Leone Band Saturday night. Both shows start at 9 p.m.
The Pickle Barrel will feature the sounds of the six-piece powerhouse, Occasional Sundays. The group will perform a variety of covers both Friday and Saturday night.
Saturday is packed full of tunes. Start the day with Tom Irish at the Vermont Winter Farmers Market on West Street in Rutland. Irish will perform acoustic starting at 10 a.m.
Duane Carleton will be at The Foundry at Summit Pond for 4 p.m. happy hour in Killington. He then heads to the Clear River Tavern on Route 100 in Pittsfield for a 9 p.m. show.
Sarah Blacker will perform at Brandon Music on Country Club Road in Brandon on Saturday night at 7 p.m. The rock, folk and jazz-influenced vocalist will be joined by Shaysh on drums, Erik White on guitar and Sean McLaughlin on bass. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased in advance by calling 465-4071.
There are two special events Saturday featuring local musicians. The Carving Studio & Sculpture Center hosts its Marble Mardi Gras at the Rutland Country Club. On the Rocks will perform at 5:30 p.m., and attendees can enjoy a live auction and dinner starting at 7 p.m. Tickets are $65; call 438-2097 to RSVP.
There will also be a Mardi Gras Celebration at the Knights of Columbus on Merchants Row in Rutland. Enerjazz, a 15-piece brass band, will perform at 6 p.m. followed by dinner and dancing. Tickets are $75 per person or $130 for a couple.
Also Saturday, the Aaron Audet Band will perform at JAX in Killington at 10 p.m.
On Sunday, Rick Redington will perform at his new Sunday spot, the Outback, at 9 p.m. Duane Carleton will be just down the road at JAX for locals' night starting at 9:30 p.m.
I also wanted to let everyone know about a rare musical opportunity in Vermont next week. Rosanne Cash, daughter of country superstar Johnny Cash and a standout musician in her own right, will be at Latchis Theater in Brattleboro on Friday, March 8. Tickets are on sale ranging from $29 to $59 and can be purchased by visiting kingdomcounty.org. The show is at 7 p.m. Don't miss your chance to see this music great.

text: Classic Fire Engines: Many old fire engines feature distinctive designs and adornments, making them great additions to museums and personal collections; or for anyone wanting an eye-catching vehicle for parades. Fire trucks are expensive so they are usually well maintained through their useful years but they can be difficult and expensive to restore. The earliest fire engines were hand operated but now gasoline and diesel engines do most of the work. Over the years dozens of manufacturers such as Ford, Chevrolet, Mack, American LaFrance, GMC, REO and Seagrave have produced fire engines and many other companies supply them with specialized accessories. This category is open to all types of fire trucks, pump trucks, hook-and-ladder trucks, EMT vans, etc.

Hublot Celebrates The New York Launch Of The KP Arturo Fuente
ЗАКРЫТЬPaula Zahn Conducts A Heartfelt Interview with Carlos Fuente Jr. New York, NY – (December 10, 2012) – Hublot hosted an intimate luncheon in honor of Carlos Fuente Jr., owner of Arturo Fuente Cigars, to celebrate the New York debut of the King Power "Arturo Fuente" timepiece at the exclusive Grand Havana Room. The watch is a result of the unique collaboration between the fine Swiss luxury watchmaker and one of the world's premiere cigar brands.
Hublot's top customers, as well as watch and lifestyle press, sipped champagne and admired the King Power "Arturo Fuente" timepiece prior to sitting down to a three-course lunch. Former New York City Mayor, Rudy Giuliani, who is a close friend of the Fuente family, stopped by to congratulate Mr. Fuente on the partnership.
As the luncheon came to a close, eight-time Emmy award-winning journalist and friend of the Hublot brand Paula Zahn, conducted a touching interview with Mr. Fuente. He spoke passionately about the Hublot partnership and the synergy that exists between the two brands, specifically the creation of handcrafted products, the importance of precision and the shared philosophy of giving back to the community.
Mr. Fuente also gave an emotional testimony about honoring his grandfather's legacy and his wish to pass on the company to the next generation. He also spoke ardently about the company's nonprofit organization, the Cigar Family Charitable Foundation, a 23-acre complex in the Dominican Republic that features a school, sports and recreation facilities and a medical clinic.
Mr. Fuente remarked, "For my family and everyone who is here today, this is a very special moment and the best culmination of 100 years of my family's achievements. Today we celebrate with a BIG BANG and leave 2012 with great cigars and a great watch, the Hublot King Power "Arturo Fuente."
This past October, Hublot celebrated the launch of the partnership in Santo Domingo at the Arturo Fuente factory with CEO of Hublot, Ricardo Guadalupe and Mr. Fuente. The King Power "Arturo Fuente" timepiece was created in celebration of the 100-year anniversary of the Arturo Fuente brand and pays tribute to the Opus X, the rarest type of cigar in the world. Only 100 pieces of the King Gold version will be produced while the ceramic version is limited to 200 pieces. The limited edition timepieces come in a genuine cigar case made out of Macassar ebony and carbon fiber and of course, come with Opus X cigars.

Do we know if there will be any more books?
Dark Heresy has quite a few books now, with a pretty sizeable bulk of content. While it's nowhere near such bloated hulks as GURPS or D&D 3.5, I can't help but wonder what's coming next. Deathwatch seems to be in a similar spot, with little left to make but adventures or rules for more chapters.Only War is wrapping up its beta soon, and once it releases we'll have a nice wait before we get anything further for it. Black Crusade should be getting a further three books (one for each god) and Rogue Trader is safe as long as they can think of more xenos to include, but I have to wonder: what's left for 40kRPG?

Chemical Equilibrium in a Protein Adsorption Ion-exchanger
Model ID: 1397
This example uses algebraic equilibrium relations to model the time-dependent adsorption of proteins to an ion-exchange medium.
The fluid phase contains three components: two proteins and one salt. The adsorption/desorption kinetics are described by a set of equilibrium reactions where proteins displace ions adsorbed at the surface and vice versa.
The model highlights the implementation of reactions at chemical equilibrium in mass-transport modeling by setting up the balance equations describing the present diffusion/reaction system results in a system of six partial differential equations.
To include equilibrium reactions in your kinetics, simply enter the chemical reaction formulas and the corresponding equilibrium constants.

He got that thickness, the kind that make you get up makin' biscuits with breakfast, so gone - Jill Scott - So Gone
The rumours have been confirmed. Beyoncé Knowles is officially the new face of H&M. The superstar singer features in the Swedish retailer's new campaign, modelling pieces which are inspired by her individual style. The print and billboard images were shot by renowned fashion photographers Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin and see Beyoncé relaxing on a tropical beach, posing in swimwear by the sea. Copy on the images read "Beyoncé as Mrs Carter in H&M," tying in neatly with her upcoming world tour.
Speaking about the campaign, she said: "I've always liked H&M's focus on fun affordable fashion. I really loved the concept we collaborated on to explore the different emotions of women represented by the four elements - fire, water, earth and wind… It was a beautiful shoot on a tropical island. It felt more like making a video than a commercial."
^^ Thank you. Charlemagne talks a lot of sh!t BUT a lot of time he is 100% on point. This is one of those times. If you don't like the song, don't like the song. But don't get all up in arms over the word bitch. Its petty and time consuming.
My favorite part of his spiel:
"Keyshia, don't go chasing waterfalls. Stick to the Ciara's and the Keri Hilson's that you're used to. Beyonce is not in your weight class. That is a battle you can not win. Go square off with Ashanti or somebody."
He read her for F.I.L.T.H

I'm ready.
The singer's first official single will debut on Monday (April 8).
Beyoncé comes face-to-face with her past in the her latest collaboration with Pepsi titled, "Mirrors."
In the one-minute video, King Bey' faces off with reflections of her old self, imitating signature moves from her 10-year solo career before introduciing new ones. "Embrace your past, but for now," she closes by saying. It's also been 10 years this year that Bey' has been working with Pepsi.
he commerical previews Beyoncé's first single, "Grown Woman," off her forthcoming album. The Timbaland-produced song, features a confident Bey', ready to show the world she's still got it.
"They like the way I walk cause I walk with a vengeance/ And you listen to me when I talk cause I ain't pretendin'/ Took awhile now I understand just where I'm going/ I know the world and I know who I am 'bout time I show it/ And I'm moving down like that when I do it/ I could be bad if I want / I can go slow all night long / I'm a grown woman," she sings.
"Grown Woman" will debut on Monday (April 8).
Take my coins, iTunes!
^ my soul.
She's so FUCKING AWESOME! OMG...I love this woman.
I'm ALREADY here for "Grown Woman". Bey just doesn't stop.
that commercial was soooo cute, and the song is going to be amazing. I was smiling the entire time. So fierce.

Looking 4ward to this era!
I need "Grown Woman" in full right now! I've played the commercial so many damn times it's not even funny
tooooooniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii iiiiiiiiiiiiigggggggghhhhhhhtt.
But really...where's the new music!?
looks like she debuted Grown Woman at one of her Paris shows
Beyoncé - Grown Woman
It looks like Beyoncé's "Grown Woman" has finally arrived. After a preview of the song landed on her new Pepsi commercial, she performed the record live for the first time during the Paris stop of her The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour. Below is a full studio version of the Timbaland-produced track, co-written by The-Dream, this vibrant dance record will most likely appear on her upcoming untitled fifth solo album.
I'm just posting that Beyonce is pregnant (again) before she announces it with the baby only like 4 weeks away.
^Seriously. "Grown Woman" was underwhelming in that Pepsi promo and the full version didn't change my opinion at all. She's generated all this hype for an album that has no release date, title, or official lead single. Real messy.
Beyoncé lent her voice to Gucci's "Chime for Change: The Sound of Change Live" concert on Saturday at Twickenham Stadium in London.
I really like this song and wish there was an official release, the only portions of the song I don't like is the rapping/heavy Bangladesh sections. It's a little jarring and doesn't quite mesh well. The rest however, especially the chorus, feels serene.

FYI, Queen Bee dropped a FULL album (14 songs) along with a video for each song at midnight exclusively on itunes, at least for a week.

saw the videos and im confused. beyonce is getting whiter
http://gaybull.tumblr.com/My new and improved (still working on it) blog. Pictures and videos to watch and download.
#1 in 103 countries (record) and projected to debut with 600,000 copies (highest female this year) with absolutely no promotion. Not only that but it isn't even available physically and it debuted 3 days after the sales week had already begun.
BeyonSLAY indeed.
Happily eating crow for all the trash I was talking. Huge risk, huge reward, and brilliantly executed all around. Conceptionalizing this as a visual album really enhanced the music and these have to be the strongest videos she has ever released. It's hard not to admire this woman's work ethic alone. Get it Bey!
It's going to take some time for the new album to 'grow' on me, I think. None of the songs are giving me that new-song-excitement feeling yet.
However, I can see why some fans are loving it so far. It's just not my cup of tea, atm.
"I'll cast a spell that you can't undo...'til you wake up and you find that you love me too..."
Yeah, like you, nothing on this CD really "pops" out at me... there's no wow factor other than she released it without any leak or warning. I was waiting for a Freakum Dress or Party, or 1+1, or, even though I'm tired of this song, Halo... but it's just kinda straight forward.
"As anarchism rears its face,
They are answered by an iron fist..."
Holy shit. The Queen (Madonna) went to and called Beyonce Queen B after the latter kissed Madonna's daughter Mercy James.
Lol. Goop must be shitting lmao.

ugh...Beyonce was in Boston last night at the Garden...knew I was missing that....BUT then I find out after the fact that she was at the Walmart 2 towns over from me...just showed up and started handing out $50 gift cards to people as she pushed a cart around!
^^ awww, that's awesome! I would have liked to have seen that!
btw, I am starting to "feel" some of the songs a bit now. "No Angel" is my shit!!!! I've had that song on repeat for the last couple of days. I think it's going to become one of my favorite Bey tracks period.
"I'll cast a spell that you can't undo...'til you wake up and you find that you love me too..."
"I felt like I wanted follow in the footsteps of Madonna and be a powerhouse and have my own empire," she said to cheers from the crowd. "And (to) show other women when you get to this point in your career, you don't have to go sign with someone else and share your money and your success, you can do it yourself."
When did this Madonna - Beyonce lovefest come about?

That gif about sums it all up
^Yeah, easily this year's best album from all the pop gals combined. Her latest and "4" are her only two albums that I can listen to from start to finish. I think these two albums cement her being much more then a single's-artist, both just feel a lot of thought went into making them good as a whole. Still boppin'.

I have to completely agree I was caught off guard by "4", until BEYONCE' was released all I can say is this shite is amazing!
I'm definitely a fan. I think with the release of BEYONCE' she has taken it to another level.

- new stay at home mommy needs advice from the pros
Hi! I've been a sahm working from home for 9 years now. I have a 9 year old boy, 5 year old girl and now 9 year old stepson
My trick for getting housework done is coming up with activites to keep them busy in spurts. I admit, it was much harder when they were younger but now the boys pretty much entertain themself. The 5 year old...not so much! If it's a nice day out, I'll take her outside for a while to wear her out a bit then when we come in, she plays with her toys, reads books, etc. while I do chores. Or I will get her going on a craft in the kitchen while I'm doing dishes. I do alot during her naptime. She's special needs in many ways so she still naps everyday. I love nap time lol. You can try to find ways to include them in your chores and make it fun. A chore/reward chart will help with that. Crafts are fun, outdoor stuff like a baby pool with toys in it can be fun. I'm drawing a blank on what all we do but I'll keep thinking on it.
Great ideas from Christine but I have to add that it just won't happen some days
I used to be as uptight as anyone could be when it came to having the laundry done, the beds made, the kitchen clean, you name it, it had to be clean and organized and tidy!
That all worked out really well while I had two kids. I even had dinner ready most nights. Fast forward to kid number three and something just had to give!
My kids are now 3, 7 and 9 and I am back on top of my game after a few years of givcing in to the madness.
I'm not saying that you have to throw in the towel, I'm just saying that you can only do what you can do
You will be fine and learn what works for you and your family.
I'm not into child labor, but let me tell you this......my 9 year old folds laundry and puts it away. I don't pay her, but she knows that when the house is clean, we can go do fun stuff. I don't mess around, if the house is clean, I get everyone out of it so it stays that way
Congratulations on your growing family and your new job of being a stay at home mom
I miss nap time
I know...nap time rocks lol
