Humm, let me see, "light lube" a generic answer would be gun oil..but very little one or two drops. If that is what you're asking. Remember if you can't find your answer here Goggle and u tube can be helpful.

I blend my own. Cane's "Mobil Mystery", 90% Mobil 1 / 10% Marvel Mystery. +
To add .. my personal choice is.
Think you have seen a pattern here Basically any light machine or motor oil will do the job. Just a couple of things to consider, the lube should be of sufficient weight to stay put and not run off but not so heavy to attract dirt and gum up...5W-30 works fine. Also no detergents or other additives....just plain oil. Cane's mixture is fine as both are oils and the mystery oil penetrates the metal better than plain engine oil. I have actually tried that and the slide on my 1911 feels like its running on ball bearings...super smooth. Don't be taken in by the marketing hype of the gun lube makers, you'll pay $5 for 1oz of gun lube when a $5 quart of Mobil 1 will last a decade.

Joshua Ledet (born April 9, 1992) is an American singer from Westlake, Louisiana.[1] In 2012 he placed third in the eleventh season of American Idol.[2] He is known for his "soaring, church-bred brand of old school soul music."[3] On August 26, 2013 he released an original song called "Here to Die" through YouTube, which has been praised by Rolling Stone.
Ledet grew up in the small woody suburb city of Westlake in Louisiana's Calcasieu Parish, a part of the Lake Charles metropolitan area near Calcasieu River. His home life was slow and easy paced with lots of family get-togethers and friends sleeping over, the focus was "food and fun."[4] In 2004, when he was eleven he watched another southern soul singer, Fantasia Barrino, sing "I Believe" in the final show and win the third season of American Idol and knew he would like to sing for a living.[5] Ledet graduated from Westlake High School where he was a part of the school's theater program for all four years of school.[1][5][6] If he could not be a singer he would likely be an actor.[7] The first concert he ever attended was by Beyoncé.[7] He grew up singing in his family church and writes songs and lyrics for and attends the House of Prayer Holiness Church.[1][8] He has a large extended family and said his proudest moment outside singing is being an uncle to all his nieces and nephews.[7]
When asked to tell something about himself that would surprise most people he stated it was that he only eats spicy food.[7] He noted on the reality show that he missed Louisiana Creole cuisine so Louisiana Lt. Governor Jay Dardenne established a "Feed the Dream" project with the state's Seafood and Marketing Board to ship Ledet food each week including tamales, crawfish, boudin (a Cajun sausage), (chicken, duck and andouille) gumbo and jambalaya, donated by Louisiana restaurants and food manufacturers.[8][9][10] He said a dish he probably could not live without is rice and gravy, from Creole cuisine, usually a brown gravy based on pan drippings, which are deglazed and simmered with extra seasonings and served over steamed or boiled rice.[11]
According to the American Idol highlights, Ledet was studying criminal justice at Lamar University in Beaumont, Texas.
On his American Idol contestant page he notes his mother influences his musical style and he has had no formal singing training.[7] His favorite male artist is Michael Jackson "because his style in music is unique and genius," Ledet would model his career like Jackson's because he was able to help so many people.[7] His favorite female artist is Whitney Houston because of her voice.[7] He would love to meet and sing with Fantasia Barrino as she is his favorite singer, and his dream song to sing is "I Will Always Love You".[7] His musical influences include Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Fantasia Barrino, James Brown, Luther Vandross, Stevie Wonder, and Elton John.[12] His favorite type of music to sing is soul but listening to music he prefers country music.[13] When asked what was the most embarrassing song he listens to he said Aqua's "Barbie Girl."[14]
Ledet originally auditioned a year earlier (for the tenth season), but did not make it past the audition stage.[12] It has been revealed he was dealing with personal and family issues including situations caused by Hurricane Rita and its aftermath. His American Idol journey has been seen as somewhat effortless by music critics who note his soul singing is exceptional but may not be contemporary enough, however he is one of the best singers within the last few years of AI.[15] His performances have repeatedly earned him standing ovations and high praise from the judges.[16] He says he combats stage fright by tuning everything out.[7] George Huff (season three in 2004) is the only other Louisiana singer to make the top ten shows.[8]
Ledet auditioned for the eleventh season of AI in Houston, Texas. He almost did not travel to compete due to his fear of flying. He has been dubbed "Mantasia", the male version of former Idol contestant Fantasia, by fans, the media and even Fantasia herself.[17][18] For the semi-finals he performed Jennifer Hudson's "You Pulled Me Through". He was one of the top five male vote getters and advanced to the top 13. In the top 13, he performed Stevie Wonder's "I Wish" and was one of the bottom three male voter getters, but was declared safe.
Ledet earned his first standing ovation in Hollywood Round, Part 3 when he sang his version of Jar of Hearts by Christina Perri. In the Top 8 round, Ledet earned his first standing ovation of the evening for his rendition of Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes's "If You Don't Know Me by Now". His duet of George Michael and Aretha Franklin's "I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)" with fellow contestant Jessica Sanchez got a second standing ovation from the judges, prompting Jackson to declare "Two of the greatest singers to ever hit this competition ... This is one of the greatest performances I have seen on this show".[19][20] He also performed It's a Man's Man's Man's World by James Brown, which was conisidered "one of the best songs in the history of any singing competition," by Randy Jackson. Kris Allen, AI season eight winner, named the pair as his two favorites this season.[21] During the top five show the judges gave Ledet the most praise of all the contestants for his versions of "Ain't Too Proud to Beg" by The Temptations (for theme songs from the 1960s), and the Bee Gees' "To Love Somebody" (for theme British Pop).[22] Ledet received a record 18 standing ovations from the judges, including his duet with Season 3 winner Fantasia Barrino at Season 11 finale, the most of any AI contestant.[23] He was eliminated on May 17, 2012, placing third overall with the lowest total of 90 million votes cast.[23]
He took part in the American Idols LIVE! Tour 2012, which began July 6, 2012 and ran till September 21, 2012.[24] He is currently writing songs for his debut album. He was mentioned in Candice Glover's audition during the twelfth season of American Idol. He was also seen in the audience with Hollie Cavanagh during the Top 7 week, and was briefly interviewed. He and Hollie also made a cameo in the audience after Burnell Taylor was eliminated.
He performed "When a Man Loves a Woman" at the White House on April 9, 2013 at the "Memphis Soul" event. The show aired on April 16, at 8 p.m. EST on PBS.
On August 26, 2013, he released an original, self-written song called "Here to Die" through YouTube. It has gained praise from Rolling Stone, which urged record labels to give it a commercial release.[25]

MCA's NYC hoops legacy will live on
May, 4, 2012
By Scott Turken, Special to ESPNNewYork.com
David Dow/Getty ImagesThe late Adam Yauch -- aka MCA of the Beastie Boys -- was a lifelong Knicks fan. Here he poses with Danilo Gallinari at the 2008 NBA draft at Madison Square Garden.
While you're at the job working nine to five
The Beastie Boys at the Garden, cold kickin' it live
-- "No Sleep Till Brooklyn"
Few teams commanded the attention of The Garden crowd more than the Beastie Boys. But one of the key stars from the legendary New York trio is gone.
Adam Yauch died Friday after a long bout with cancer. He was 47.
The Beasties are inexorably linked with the city and its teams, especially those of the '80s and '90s. Coincidentally, the seminal rap album Licensed to Ill was released in 1986 -- the same year the bad-boy Mets shocked the Red Sox and the sports world. The album and the team remain two of the most important icons of '80s pop culture in the Big Apple.
In 1994, at the height of Knicks and Rangers glory, the Beasties debuted at No. 1 on the charts with Ill Communication. For many, the brilliant tracks on that album are the perfect mix tape for those halcyon spring days of sports. A line from the track "Get it Together" said it all: "I got heart like John Starks, hitting mad sparks, pass me the mic, and I'll be rocking the whole park."
Michael Ochs Archives/Getty ImagesThe Beastie Boys' vast canon is littered with references to New York City hoops.
Throughout the vast catalogue of Beasties hits, there are references to Patrick Ewing, Latrell Sprewell, Anthony Mason, Harthorne Wingo and Phil Rizzuto.
The band's influence, it can be said, sometimes trumped even sports itself. In 2011, after the Knicks were blown out by the Celtics in the first round of the playoffs, the group debuted their album Hot Sauce Committee Part Two during a Livestream broadcast. The next day, a Yahoo! headline read: "Beastie Boys Outplay the Knicks at Madison Square Garden."
Yauch remained true to the Knicks to the end, attending games and the NBA draft. He directed a critically acclaimed hoops documentary in 2008 -- Gunnin' for That #1 Spot -- about the best high school players in the country playing in the Elite 24 All-Star Game.
And his hoops legacy will live on. As another hip-hop icon was planning to move his team to MCA's native Brooklyn, Nets owner Jay-Z sampled from the Beasties with his own "Hello Brooklyn 2.0."
To honor the late MCA on Friday night, eight Mets starters took the plate to a Beastie Boys song.
MCA would have dug that -- because when it came to sports, he always seemed to be "rocking this party eight days a week."

Very simple answersSubmitted by Commonsensenotc... on Fri, 04/06/2012 - 3:18pm.
Courts have ruled that you can't make welfare recipients work as a condition for collecting payments. Some unemployed people are starting to work farm labor, but only those who are accustomed to physical labor and low wages. You're not going to see unemployed degreed professionals harvesting squash. Jeez, you can't even get them to move to where jobs are available - you want them to bend over and pick vegetables!?!? If we sealed the border and arrested every illegal alien, we'd have a massive food shortage in this country. We need millions of them every year, but we need to manage their presence as we used to do forty years ago. »

Citigroup Rebounds, Stays Below Its 200-Day Simple Moving Average
NEW YORK (TheStreet) - Citigroup
(C - Get Report) beat analysts' estimates on earnings per share by 16 cents earning $1.24. This report was released before the opening bell on Monday and this followed the company's announcement that they settled their subprime mortgage probe paying $7 billion.
Citi shares are currently trading around $48.45, down over 7% for the year to date.
When I crunched the numbers for the 24 components on the KBW Banking Index on July 7 I noted that Citigroup has a year-to-date decline of 7.4% since its July 3 close at $48.24.
Let's look at the daily chart for Citigroup:
Courtesy of MetaStock Xenith Citigroup traded as high as $48.83 on Monday morning hopping above its 21-day and 50-day simple moving averages at $47.61 and $47.57, respectively, but stayed shy of its 200-week SMA at $49.24. >>Citigroup's Bad Bank Drives Second-Quarter Profit Despite Mortgage Settlement >>Why JPMorgan Is Undervalued on Long-Term Earnings Growth Estimates I am not showing Citi's weekly chart, but the stock will have a positive weekly chart given a close this week above its five-week modified moving average at $47.73 with its 200-week SMA at $40.91.

"Neutron and X-Ray Spectroscopy" delivers an up-to-date account of the principles and practice of inelastic and spectroscopic methods available at neutron and synchrotron sources, including recent developments. The chapters are based on a course of lectures and practicals (the Hercules course at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility) delivered to young scientists who require these methods in their professional careers. Each chapter, written by a leading specialist in the field, introduces the basic concepts of the technique and provides an overview of recent work. This volume, which focuses on spectroscopic techniques in synchrotron radiation and inelastic neutron scattering, will be a primary source of information for physicists, chemists and materials scientists who wish to acquire a basic understanding of these techniques and to discover the possibilities offered by them. Emphasizing the complementarity of the neutron and X-ray methods, this tutorial will also be invaluable to scientists already working in neighboring fields who seek to extend their knowledge.

forward foot controls for a 1984 750 Shadow
I am new here and had some questions. I have recently found a 1984 750 Shadow that has been stored since 2004. Even then the bike only has 47000 kms on it. After doing a bunch of stuff to it for the the safety check (tires, fork seals, brakes, etc) I want to start to get it right for me. This is the bike I searched for and wanted because as a kid I can remember my dad and I riding on his 1984 750 Shadow. I love the bike but being 6'2" tall and 280 lbs, I am a little big for it. I have hiway pegs on her and ride with my feet on them all the time and use my heels to shift and brake. Does anyone know somewhere to get a set of forward foot controls for this bike? Has anyone made their own that they could post pictures of so I could see? I was thinking of putting ape hangers on it and the forward controls to make it more comfortable. As it stands, I can comfortably ride the bike sitting on the passenger seat. Thanks Adam |

I am 290 and 6'0. This bike was the first generation of "Cruisers" from Honda. You ride it like a standard, with your feet under you.
I have looked for forward controls as well, but there are none ready made. You can stick some highway bars on for stretching the legs out on longer rides, but basically you ride the bike like a standard bike with your feet under you, |

As far as I know, no commercial forwards are available. Some guys have rigged up their own and they like the change.

That link is great for giving you ideas, but not to rain on anyone's parade. The bike is the next gen shadow (86 onwards) and has subtle differences to the original shadow, such as rod operated brake, lower seat height and other cosmetic changes.
That is not to say it is not helpful, but be aware it is for a different model shadow and there are differences.

The earlier Shadows are cable operated. You can attach a cut down brake lever to the brake mechanism and operate it by a brake assembly with a rod from a newer Shadow. I copied these pics previous from the writeup that lost the pics. Credit goes to oldtoys1961 who did this work.

The images "Rocksolid" put up were the ones I was looking for, that I mentioned earlier. The footrests and pedals are TCBros Choppers, I am pretty sure that they are the universal forward control kit. Here is link. http://www.tcbroschoppers.com/index.html I also noticed in the topic http://www.hondashadow.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=72406 on page 4, Duke51 has used a different method. See his images in his reply with photobucket. Good ideas on this topic too

Create alert for ReutersReuters
, Create alert for Mohammed MorsiMohammed Morsi
Shares on the Egyptian stock exchange continued to slide dramatically in early trading on Sunday, according to Reuters.
The sudden drop is reportedly caused by Mohammed Morsi's recent decree, granting himself extensive new powers. There have been widespread protests across the country since the announcement.
Trading was suspended for 30 minutes soon after opening as the free-fall exceeding allowed limits. By 0915GMT, the market was down 8.7 per cent, according to Reuters. This comes at a bad time for Egypt's economy, as the deficit continues to grow and the GDP slumps to 2.6 per cent, well below targets of 4.5 per cent.

Ryanair Holdings Plc's CEO Discusses Q1 2012 Results - Earnings Call Transcript
Traffic in Dublin has plummeted by some 30% to just over 18 million passengers in 2011 from its 2007 peak of 24.5 million. We believe the Irish government can only reverse its downward spiral in air traffic and return to tourism in Charles de Gaulle when the DAA airport monopoly is broken up and replaced with competing term of the Dublin and competing airports at Cork and Shannon, which will lead to a much more competitive airport charges and more efficient terminal facilities at the expense of white elephants, to which the DAA have delivered over recent years.
We've recently submitted a proposal to the Irish government to deliver 5 million extra passengers annually over the next 5 years to kick start the Irish tourism and job creation. This will create about 5,000 jobs in the Irish airport directly. This growth proposal is based on airport charges falling to return to competitive levels here in Ireland and the government's scrapping the remaining EUR 3 tourist tax. And we still await the government's response to our proposal.
The latest U.K. Competition Commission's confirmation of its original 2008 recommendation that the BAA airport monopoly should be forced to sell Stansted and at least one Scottish airport will we hope finally end the BAA policy of using legal appeals to delay the sale. These delaying tactics have not stopped the BAA at Stansted overcharging airlines, generating excessive monopoly profit by losing even more routes and traffic. We call on the U.K. government to force the early sale of Stansted and one of the Scottish airports, and allow a competition between the U.K. airports in order to deliver better facilities and lower cost for airport users. We intend to shortly launch legal proceedings against the BAA Stansted seeking a recovery of the substantial overcharges, which Ryanair believes it and other airlines have suffered at the BAA Stansted monopoly's hands in recent years, and which have been used to fund Ferrovial's acquisition and operation of Heathrow.

US 4847673 A Abstract Grooves having a predetermined depth are formed on an insulating layer, and an electrode wiring layer is provided in the grooves of the insulating layer. The electrode wiring layer is formed to fill the grooves either completely or partially to a predetermined thickness on the inner wall surfaces of the grooves.
Claims(2) 1. A semiconductor device comprising:
a semiconductor substrate; a first insulating layer formed on said semiconductor substrate; a plurality of grooves formed on said first insulating layer into a depth which is less than a thickness of said first insulating layer; an electrode wiring layer formed in said grooves so as to have a generally C-shaped cross section; and a second insulating layer formed in an opening of said electrode wiring layer. 2. The semiconductor device of claim 1, wherein said electrode wiring and second insulating layers have their surfaces substantially flush with a surface of said first insulating layer.
Description 1. Field of the Invention This invention relates to a semiconductor device and, more particularly, to a semiconductor device having a fine wiring pattern with a gap of 2μ or below. FIGS. 3(a) to 3(d) are sectional views showing the fabrication of a prior art semiconductor device "Electronic Integrated Circuits", J. Allison, McGraw-Hill (1975), (English translation: McGraw-Hill Koyusha), Chapter 1. Referring to the Figures, reference numeral 1 designates a semiconductor substrate, numeral 2 an insulating layer, numeral 3 an electrode wiring layer made of an aluminum alloy, for instance, and numeral 4 a resist. In this prior art semiconductor device, the electrode wiring layer 3 is formed in the following way. As shown in FIG. 3(a), the semiconductor substrate 1 made of silicon is subjected to various processes such as the formation of a diffused layer and a gate pattern necessary for the construction of an integrated circuit, and then the ground insulating layer 2 for an electrode wiring is formed. Then, a wiring material layer 3A in the form of the thin film is formed. The most frequently used wiring material is an aluminum alloy containing several percent of silicon or the like. Then, the resist 4 is coated over the entire surface, and then exposed and developed by the ordinary photographic plate manufacturing technique, thus forming the resist pattern 4 corresponding to a wiring pattern (FIG. 3b). Then, the wiring material layer 3A is etched with the resist 4 used as a mask (FIG. 3c). Then, the resist 4 is removed by means of oxygen plasma, whereby forming a pattern of the electrode wiring layer 3 (FIG. 3d). Finally, the entire system is annealed at a temperature above 400� C. to obtain a reliable ohmic (non-rectifying) contact with the silicon layer. In the above prior art semiconductor device, however, the aluminum alloy is subject to rearrangement of the metal crystals when it is thermally treated at a temperature above 300� C. During this process, hillrocks (projections) are produced toward the free interface in order to alleviate the internal stress. Therefore, when the wiring gap becomes less than 2μ, a short-curcuit with a hillrock between the adjacent wiring electrodes occurs as shown in a circle of A of FIG. 4. The primary object of the invention is to provide a semiconductor device, in which no short-circuit occurs between adjacent wiring lines even if the gap is reduced to be less than 2μ, so that it is possible to realize a very high integration degree. Another object of the invention is to facilitate the formation of a fine wiring pattern by forming the final electrode pattern on the group insulating layer having a low light reflectivity. The above and other objects, features and advantages of the invention will become more apparent from the following description with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIGS. 1(a) to 1(f) are sectional views showing steps of making a semiconductor device according to one embodiment of the invention; FIGS. 2(a) to 2(c) are sectional views showing steps of of making a semiconductor device according to another embodiment of the invention; FIGS. 3(a) to 3(d) are sectional views showing steps of a prior art method; and FIG. 4 is a plan view for explaining a drawback in the prior art semiconductor. In FIGS. 1(a) to 1(f), reference numeral 11 designates a semiconductor substrate, numeral 12 an insulating layer made of silicon oxide or silicon nitride, for instance, numeral 13 an electrode wiring layer made of an aluminum alloy, numeral 14 a resist, and numeral 15 grooves formed by etching in the surface of the insulating layer 12. In this case, the electrode wiring layer 13 completely fills the grooves 15, and its surface perfectly coincides with the surface of the insulating layer. The semiconductor device of this embodiment is fablicated basically in the sane process as that of the prior art device up to the formation of the insulating layer 12 on the semiconductor substrate 11 made of silicon. The thickness of the insulating layer 12 according to the invention is conveniently 1.5 to 2μ while it is about 0.5 to 1μ in the prior art. Then, the resist 14 which is in an inverse relation to a desired wiring pattern (i.e., relation between positive and negative) is formed on the insulating layer 12 (FIG. 1(b)). The insulating layer 12 is then etched with the resist as a mask (FIG. 1(c)). The etching depth in this step is determined such that it is approximately equal to or greater than the thickness of electrode wiring layer. Then, the resist 14 is removed using plasma or by immersion in an oxide solution (FIG. 1(d)). Thus, planar grooves 15 corresponding to the electrode wiring pattern are formed in the insulating layer 12. Then, the wiring material layer 13A is formed on the entire surface by means of CVD (chemical vapor deposition) or spattering. At this point, the film is also formed on the inner wall surfaces of the grooves 15. Therefore, when the film thickness is increased to a certain extent, the grooves are completely filled (FIG. 1(e)). It has been known that in order to reliably fill the grooves it is effective to apply a low bias voltage to the substrate while forming the film 13A. Subsequently, the wiring material layer 13A is etched by RIE (reactive ion etching) to reduce the film thickness until the the wiring material layer 13 is left only in the grooves 15 forming electrodes 13 FIG. 1(f)). Thereafter, the annealing for making an ohmic contact may be performed as in the prior art. In the above embodiment, the surface of the device is flattened with the formation of the electrode wiring layer 13. However, it is possible to form a wiring material layer 21A that is too thin form a flat surface such as shown in (FIG. 2 (a)), and the surface is flattened by forming a second insulating layer 22 by coating or CVD on the wiring material layer 21A and then etching the entire surface. In this case, it is possible to flatten the surface by etching the wiring material layer 21A and insulating layer 22 substantially at an equal etching speed (FIG. 2(c)). Reference numeral 21 designates an electrode wiring layer. The electrode wiring layer 21 is formed to a constant thickness on the inner surfaces of the grooves 15. The insulating layer 22 is formed to fill recesses formed on the surface of the electrode wiring layer 21. In the above embodiment, an aluminum alloy has been used for the electrode wiring layer. However, the same results may be obtained by using tungsten, molybdenum or other high-melting metals or silicides thereof. In the above embodiment a single electrode wiring layer is formed. Where two or more electrode wiring layers are formed, fine electrode wiring patterns may of course be formed by repeating entirely the same process. As has been described in the foregoing, according to the invention an electrode wiring layer is burried in grooves that have been formed in advance. Therefore, it is possible to increase the integration density of the electrode wiring. Nevertheless, it is possible to obtain a semiconductor device, which is flat at the top and has high reliability. Further, it has no a high light reflectivity layer such as an aluminum alloy layer but a ground insulating layer having a low light reflectivity that has a pattern of the electrode wiring the electrode wiring.

Reuben Brothers
Reuben Brothers refers to the business interests of David and Simon Reuben. Reuben Brothers has various international departments and companies, headquartered in Switzerland its main activities are in real estate, private equity, and venture capitalism.
Reuben Brothers after migrating to the UK they began new business activities and later they set up a family company for holding assets in the Russian metals market during the 1980s and 1990's. Through those activities, they accumulated substantial amounts[clarification needed] of capital, and at one point were the world's largest aluminium company.
Present activities[edit]
By 2000, the Russian business environment was turning sour for them and they sold all their Russian assets and focused their business activities mainly in the UK property market, where they have a substantial portfolio[clarification needed] of debt-free assets. With others, they have been involved in financing a number of major acquisitions and also have investments in technology companies.
Today, their business activities revolve around real estate both in the UK and abroad, venture capital, and private equity. These are mainly split between two registered companies: Reuben Brothers (Assets and Management) and Aldersgate Investments (Investments)
In 2008, Reuben Brothers returned to the commodity business and expanding their mining and trading interests
Real estate: Reuben Brothers[edit]
Reuben Bothers more significant UK properties include: Millbank Tower; the John Lewis headquarters in Victoria; the American Express offices also in Victoria; Carlton House SW1; Academy House on Sackville Street; Connaught House on Berkeley Square; and prime Sloane Street shops.
Reuben Brothers purchased the Piccadilly estate in 2011, better known as the former Naval and Military Club, which comprises six freehold buildings in the center of Mayfair, which have a planning consent for a six-star hotel and private members' club.
Reuben Brothers have been involved in the regeneration of the Paddington area of London, which involves a 2,000,000 sq ft (190,000 m2) development scheme of offices and flats. They will include a 43-story residential tower – the tallest in the West End, where traditionally it has been hard to obtain planning permission for skyscrapers. Called Merchant Square, it will have 559 flats and more than 600,000 sq ft (56,000 m2) of office space. The project is part of an estimated 8 million sq ft of development round the railway station, much of which has already been built. An estimated 30,000 people will eventually work there.
Coincidentally, the Reuben Brothers are co-investors of D2 Jeans and Blue Inc clothing retailers with retail guru Sir Stuart Rose. The area of Paddington that the brothers are renovating, Merchant Square, also houses the London head offices of global retailing giant Marks and Spencer, where Sir Stuart was formerly Chief Executive.
The Reuben Brothers have 50:50 joint venture with Park Plaza Hotels & Resorts to develop a new apart-hotel under the 'art'otel' brand in Hoxton, in the City of London.
The company has been given the go-ahead to build three towers opposite Tate Britain. The development features a mix of apartments and an apart-hotel on the River Thames next to the Riverbank Park Plaza hotel. The development, designed by Foster & Partners, will see 1960s office building Hampton House demolished and replaced with the three towers, the highest of which stands at 27 storeys. The London, Paper, Brothers to build towers on Thames, retrieved 9 April 2008
Amongst others property assets that the Reuben Brothers own or have a significant stake in are London Oxford Airport, London Heliport, Luup, Travelodge Hotels, and Metro Bank.
Aldersgate Investments[edit]
Aldersgate Investments is the companies acquisition vehicle for buying operational companies in non-property related markets.
Via both companies, the Reuben Brothers continue to be one of the largest investors in luxury leisure group Orient-Express Hotels. The company also owns the Wellington Pub Company, the largest free-of-tie pub estate in the UK with approximately 850 tenanted pubs.
Global Switch[edit]
The company are 100% owners of Global Switch, the largest wholesale carrier-neutral data centre provider in Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. Global Switch has ten data centres: six are located in Europe London, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Paris and Madrid), with centres in Sydney and Singapore serving the Asia-Pacific market. The centres total around 3,100,000 sq ft (290,000 m2) of floor space and are occupied by a broad range of customers, global and national, large and small including government organisations, financial institutions, enterprises, global systems integrators, telecommunication carriers, managed service providers and other hosting businesses. Various initiatives are underway which will increase the overall floor space to around 4,000,000 sq ft (370,000 m2). Global Switch's chairman is John Corcoran, a former Multiplex executive, who has been with the company since 2007.
Horse racing[edit]
In December 2006, Aldersgate Investments made an offer of 200p per share for Northern Racing, completing the bid and taking it private again in April 2007.[1] In April 2012, Aldersgate Investments bought rival Arena Leisure. Proposed to be merged under the Arena Racing Company brand, the two companies together own 17 race courses in the United Kingdom, accounting for approximately 40% of UK racing fixtures, but still presently under the two separate brands.[2] The group is also a major shareholder in At The Races (ATR), the broadcaster taking UK and Irish racing to domestic andinternational audience.
Reuben Foundation[edit]
The family are well known for philanthropy[citation needed] and have a charitable wing, The Reuben Foundation, which donates mainly in the health care and education sectors through an initial endowment of $100 million. The family are active in the running of the foundation.
- In 2004, The Reuben Foundation completed a multimillion-pound project to build a school in North London; the school is called the N. Reuben primary school named after their mother. N Reuben School has over 250 students currently enrolled and was given a "stellar"oth th report by Ofsted.
- 2005 – The Reuben Foundation opened the largest breast cancer unit in the Meir hospital in Israel.
- 2008 – The Reuben Foundation opened another cancer clinic in Haifa, Israel, servicing all sectors of Israeli society.
- 2008 – The Reuben Foundation Great Ormond Street Hospital opened the largest cancer clinics for children in Europe. The centre was opened by Mayor of London Boris Johnson.
- 2010 – The Reuben Foundation together with Virgin Unite launched 'The Haiti Project' which raised substantial funds for the hurricane relief effort in that country.
- 2011 The Reuben Foundation together with the Mayor of London and Mayor of New York launched the "Team London" programme through a multi-million-pound endowment, to encourage volunteering across London.
- 2012 – The Reuben Foundation launched the Reuben Scholarship Program providing hundreds of free university scholarships at Oxford University, University College London and ARK SCHOOLS all in the UK
- 2012 – The Reuben Foundation launched the BFI (British Film Institute) Reuben Library

Gamers aren't the only ones who are suffering from the delay of Watch Dogs and The Crew. The delays, along with two under-performing games, have caused the publisher's stock to fall 22% to $2.27 (as of the time of this article.) Both ambitious open world games were delayed, but Watch Dogs really hurt as the game was to be the launch title for the next generation consoles, Xbox One and PlayStation 4. Both Amazon and GameStop have had to deal with the repercussions as well since both have offered a launch console with Watch Dogs bundled in. Rayman Legends and Splinter Cell: Blacklist also caused part of the stock drop, as both games failed to meet Ubisoft's sales expectations. |

James O. Wilkinson committed the murders. He was the son of James Wilkinson and Meddis East and was about 20 or 21 at the time of the murders. Interesting enough I know all about the John James Wilkinson to whom you refer. He was born in 1831 in Casey County Ky. He was the son of William Franklin Wilkinson and Jane Jones. They immigrated to Greene Co. IL also but settled out East of town. John James Wilkinson is what alot of people mistakenly refer to him as but that is not his name. It is John Jones Wilkinson. He is my 2nd Great Grandfather on my fathers side. I inherited a family keepsake that explained a great deal of this to me and had a picture of John Jones Wilkinson and some of his family. I've got it all laid out on ancestry.com and if you'd like I can send you an invite so you can view it all at your leisure - just send me an email that is good for you. The James O. Wilkinson (son of James & Meddis) is related to me through my mothers side. She was also a Wilkinson when her and my father married. They didnt know it at the time but they were 5th cousins. Mom's family had all descended from James Wilkinson & Meddis East of the Patterson & White Hall area of Greene Co and Dad's family had all descended from William Franklin Wilkinson & Jane Jones of the Barrow & Roodhouse area of Greene Co. I know this all sounds very confusing but I have worked long and hard to substantiate this information and wouldnt say any of this without knowing it to be accurate.

"Only a short 3 hour drive from Vegas and it feels like a different world. The cabin was more than we expected and had all the amenities we could have needed. Be sure to have a 4x4 because the roads leading up might be impossible without. Once we arrived we were blown away by the beauty and tranquility of the cabin and land surrounding. We will definitely be back."
"We chose this cabin for its central location to Bryce and Zion and it was perfect!! The cabin is extremely roomy and yet cozy. We had a great time preparing meals in the large kitchen and enjoying the food with our family and friends. The town is small but has most everything you need and the people are very friendly. We definitely plan on coming back again!!!"

Hey all, I'm planning to get into AG by doing 1-2 gallon batches, since I'm an apartment dweller... Does anyone have ideas for a mini MLT? I've looked at mini coolers, and none of the ones I saw had spigots... Thanks!
Get a 5 gallons cooler. You may want to scale up eventually and why build a whole new MLT. It's not that much of a storage difference.
Don't let space keep you from doing full five gallon batches (unless you do not have storage), There are some condo/apartment dwellers who have mastered full AG brewing in small spaces. If you are still looking at staying small scale, you could go full AG or even try partial mashing, where you use a combination of extract and grains. As far as coolers, there are 3 gallon round models available. Check places like target, walmart, and sporting good stores. In your situation, I would even consider getting one of the five gallon rubbermaid drink coolers from Home Depot, this will give you some flexibility in making stronger beers if you want. If you are having difficulty finding coolers with spigots in your area, it's not too difficult to drill a hole in the side of a cooler and add a ball valve. This thread might be of use to you.
Make Beer, Not War.
Hey guys, thanks for the advice... My problem is not storing the 5 gal cooler, but doing a full boil in my kitchen. Maybe I could try the two step method... I did look at a 3 gal round cooler, but the one I saw had "NO HOT BEVERAGES" stamped on the inside of the lid, which gave me visions of plastic chemicals leeching into the mash. Should I be concerned?
You could split the batches between two pots, or depending on the size of your stove, use a larger pot, and overlapping it on two burners.
Here's my small MLT made from a 3 gallon Igloo cooler. Works great, but now I'm using the same braid in a 12 gallon Rubbermaid. Still keeping the 3 gallon around for partial mash. Cheap and versatile set-up.http://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=51056
I live in a loft with no greenspace or yard where I can do AG in 5 gallon batches..so I'm in the same boat as you...I've been playing with some things that you might be interested in. You can do it for small batches even in a 2 gallon unmodified cooler... Read this article http://byo.com/feature/1536.html Also get one of these for the bottom of the cooler But unscrew or break off the center post. (it's a refinement that he talked about on a podcast, it lifts the grainbag above the spigot and prevents stuck sparges.) Then put a large grain bag in it and rubberband it to the outside edge of cooler. When you are mashing you wont be able to seal the lid tightly, but do it as tight as you can and cover the whole thing with a blanket to hold the temp. That's how I am doing a PM as I write for a 5 gallon batch of brown ale...I just doughed in and am mashing... But instead of it being a Partial Mash, you're doing a full volume boil...so use one of the brewing software programs that allows you to calculate recipes based on volume...I'm working on a project that involves AG brewing in a MR Beer fermentor.... I'm trying to rescue mr beer users from the humiliation they get subjected too.... My goal is to have someone win a GABF award using a MR Beer.....
Like my snazzy new avatar? Get Sons of Zymurgy swag, here, and brew with the best.Revvy's one of the cool reverends. He has a Harley and a t-shirt that says on the back "If you can read this, the bitch was Raptured. - Madman I gotta tell ya, just between us girls, that Revvy is HOT. Very tall, gorgeous grey hair and a terrific smile. He's very good looking in person, with a charismatic personality... he drives like a ****ing maniac! - YooperBrew
Awesome -- great tips! Thanks!
temp only dropped 3 degrees over an hour.
Jah, what kind of keg is that? Or is it a cooler? How many gallons is it? It's cool...all black and shiny and everything.

Active within 3 days
Life is too short to be boring.
Who am I? I'm an island girl, born and raised. Moved to Colorado when I was young and I have not been back since. Fun, outgoing, charismatic....ok it's sounding pretty cliche already. Let's be honest. I am fun, I can get a party started and I try to have fun when I'm out with friends or family. While I love hanging out with friends and family, I love reading almost as much. Religion is important to me, but my beliefs are not in sync with all the teachings of the church. We could discuss it sometime! I would like to think I'm a very traditional sort of person, I would love to be romanced and wooed. I'm not looking for Mr. Right now, I'm looking for someone that has potential to be my forever. Why am I here? Something new. A friend asked me to try, and I'm willing to give it a shot. I'm looking for a guy who can appreciate someone for who they are on the inside and out. Someone willing to commit and build trust in a relationship. A person that would go that extra mile to make me feel special, even on my worst day. I could go on forever about myself and who I am looking for, but what's the point in that? If you want to get to know me, ask away. I'm pretty sure I'll answer your question, within reason of course.
