Money Mizer Pawn Shop Opening In Panama City This Week
Money Mizer Pawn & Jewelry opening this week at 2424 W. 23rdSt. in Panama City. CEO Robbie Whitten, who will open the shop, founded the company with his father about 30 years ago in Columbus, Ga. and due to demand is now expanding nationwide. This is the second Money Mizer in Florida (the first opened this week in Jacksonville) and the company expects to open 25 total stores throughout the state within the next three years.
Why, you ask, would someone consider opening a pawn shop these days?
According to a 2009 survey by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., about 9 million households are unbanked and another 21 million are underbanked. As this population continues to grow, pawn shops have become a primary source for basic financial services such as loans and check cashing. As a result, sales are skyrocketing and chains are expanding. Furthermore, gold prices are steadily rising, which is good news for pawn shops that see much of their business from pawned jewelry.
Money Mizer, a growing chain of franchised pawn stores, offers a new spin on the traditional pawn shop, with an upscale store setting and advanced pawning options like PawnConfidential.com. The new website attracts more untraditional customers who are concerned about privacy and allows them to obtain a cash loan quickly and securely with complete discretion and without visiting a pawn shop. As a result of the struggling economy, the customer demographic of those who frequent pawn shops is shifting tremendously; now seeing an influx of white-collared Americans relying on their services.
Growing Pawn Shop Chain Opens Second Store in State, Plans 25 More Locations by 2015
(Panama City, Fla.)—As America's unbanked and underbanked community continues to grow, pawn shops have become a primary source for financial services. According to the FDIC, 1 in 4 American households is considered unbanked or underbanked. Coming soon to Panama City to serve this expanding population is Money Mizer Pawn & Jewelry, a growing chain of franchised pawn stores that offers a unique blend of traditional financing services as well as an unmatched selection of quality retail products in a comfortable and appealing, upscale store setting. The store will open at 2424 W. 23rd St. in Panama City on August 8 and it will be one of 25 franchised locations planned for the state over the next three years.
"With so many Americans in need of basic financial services, pawn shops have become a reliable source for small loans and cashed checks," says Robbie Whitten, president and CEO of Money Mizer. "Banks don't service this sector of the population, it's not worth their time, and we're happy to offer some support and help meet the needs of people in the community."
A pawn is another term for a collateral loan, primarily 30-day renewable loans. Pawnbrokers lend money on items of value ranging from gold and jewelry to electronics, musical instruments and almost anything imaginable. Loans are based on the value of the collateral. When a customer pays back the loan, their merchandise is returned or they may choose to surrender the collateral as payment in full. The average pawn loan is $125.
Many people today who depend on pawnbrokers to help them meet financial needs not offered through traditional means, are working families who use pawn loans to simply keep the electricity on, the rent paid and their gas tanks filled. The fast-growing, competitive pawn industry is governed by all of the major federal laws that apply to other financial institutions and is represented by the National Pawnbrokers Association.
The average median household income of people who pawn in Whitten's stores ranges between $40,000 and $60,000 and is continuing to increase due to a number of factors related to the economy, including job losses, foreclosures and cost of living increases.
Technology has also played a large part in the growth of the pawn industry and will continue to do so in the future. As more untraditional customers tap pawn shops for loans, many are concerned about privacy. Earlier this year, Money Mizer launched PawnConfidential.com, an online resource that allows customers the opportunity to obtain a cash loan quickly and securely with complete discretion and without visiting a pawn shop.
"Although companies such as Money Mizer have helped to change the sometimes-negative connotation associated with pawn shops, technology helps cater to the non-traditional customers that rely on pawn services but are uncomfortable going into a shop," says Whitten.
The new site provides short-term loans in exchange for collateral in the form of high-value items like jewelry, watches, precious metals, coin collections, cameras, fine art, antiques and collectibles. Valuables held as collateral during the loan repayment period are bar-coded and kept in a secured vault until the loan has been paid back. When the borrowed amount is paid in full, the items are promptly returned to the customer. Depending on the retail value of the item, loans range between $50 to $100,000 and no credit reporting or checking takes place.
About Money Mizer Pawn & Jewelry
Founded in 1980 by Robbie Whitten and his father Robert Whitten, Columbus, Ga. based Money Mizer has grown to four locations in Georgia and Alabama. The company has experienced tremendous growth and has loaned customers more than $26.4 million to date. Money Mizer launched a franchise program in 2009 and expects to open 150 locations by the end of 2015, primarily in cities with populations of at least 50,000, including college towns and military bases.

June Bisantz, professor of graphic art, has artwork displayed across the United States through "Art Here, Art There, Art Everywhere" and the Billboard Art Project. "Art Here, Art There, Art Everywhere consists of a series of five altered street signs on display on the Dunham Mall in front of the Pittsfield, MA, City Hall since February. The project was commissioned by Pittsfield's Artscape 2011-12.
The Billboard Art Project is a non-profit organization that takes billboards from Pennsylvania to California and repurposes these billboards normally used for advertising as artwork. The exhibition has already occurred in Duluth, MN; Chicago; Reading, PA. New Orleans; Baton Rouge; and San Bernadino, CA.
The Billboard Art Project was organized by David Morrison, an artist and advertising media specialist. Lamar Advertising has given artists space on electronic billboards across the country to complete the project. "I'm really happy to be involved in this," said Bisantz. "Morrison's philosophy and mine are identical: to replace advertising with art and give the public an opportunity to experience creative statement in the midst of a pressured, highly commercial environment."

If the venture is successful for the firm, Laszlo believes that other real estate companies will hop on the Second Life bandwagon, even if consumers don't.
"If Coldwell Banker is successful, I think that will start to put pressure on realtors to experiment there," Laszlo said.
"The challenge with Second Life is that, unlike the Web, [which] reached a point where suddenly it exploded, it's still kind of a fair distance away, where it becomes a place where people have to be to make money and do business. ... The learning curve factor is going to be the big inhibitor."
For now, Coldwell Banker is calling this mixture of real-life realty and Second Life "an experimental project," said Young, who believes that other realtors will follow his lead.
"You're not going to see it immediately, but in the next three to five years? Absolutely."

This pie is delicious. I think next time I'll make it, I'll increase SALTED peanuts to 1 1/2 cup. Don't put unsalted peanut in the pie, for the contrast between the sweetness of sugar and corn syrups, and salt of the peanuts is very surprising... in a positive way!
This was weird

This is a delicious pie. My husband compared the taste to that of a Payday(tm) candybar.
Excellent! My family loved it, so did my company.
I made this a few years ago and it has been requested every every year since! Tastes very much like a Payday!
I made this for Thanksgiving last year. Followed the directions exactly and it was perfect! My husband can't eat pecans but loves peanuts and this has the same consistency of a pecan pie! Wonderful taste! Will definitely make again!
very good. Family loved it.
This was really an answer to my peanut butter craving. I made it exactly as per recipe. It is very rich, but very pleasing. Thanks for a great recipe!

Restaurants in Singapore
The residents of Singapore love to eat out. By one estimate there are 20,000 restaurants feeding its population of 5 million. Some of the best restaurants in Singapore are white glove, gourmet destinations while more humble options include countless street food stalls—with its rigorously enforced health codes, you can dine at them without fear. Singapore restaurants run the gamut of cuisines—at the crossroads of Southeast Asia, you'll find Thai, Malay, Indonesian and other options, while the country's large Indian population has the subcontinent's cuisine covered. Unique to Singapore, and a few cities in Malaysia, is Peranakan cuisine, a hybrid of Chinese and Malaysian cuisines. To experience the full range of the city's culinary scene, check out Singapore restaurants that are a once-per-trip splurge, like Saint Pierre, as well as the food stalls. In Saint Pierre's formal central business district dining room, the kitchen serves dishes that are a unique combination of Japanese and French. The selection of foie gras is one of its specialties. When it's time to check out some of the more wallet-friendly options, Hainanese chicken is an unofficial national dish—chicken poached in stock and served with a chili and garlic sauce.
Located in the hawker center of the bustling Tiong Bahru market, the Roasted Pig Specialist is easily recognizable by its bright yellow and green awning. The small stand roasts its own pigs and serves them whole (priced and sold by size) or in slices over beds of rice.
Long a Singapore mainstay for Nonya (Chinese and Malay) cuisine, Kim Choo's built its reputation on fragrant rice dumplings—which it stuffs and steams in 12 varieties, from chili prawns to minced pork and winter melon.
The highest restaurant in Singapore, Si Chuan Dou Hua serves traditional Sichuan and Cantonese cuisine on the 60th floor of the UOB Plaza One skyscraper.
Located in Chinatown's New Majestic Hotel, this namesake restaurant is owned by acclaimed chef Yong Bing Ngen, previously of Jade and Jiang-Nan Chun.
Founder Wong Yew Hwa slowly simmers his spicy noodle soups over a traditional charcoal fire.
A smart, busy place on the Esplanade that started life as a hawker stall, No Signboard Seafood Restaurant offers its giant Sri Lankan crab under a lava of addictive, ruddy-hued sweet-piquant hot sauce amped with garlic, pungent shrimp paste, and a host of secret ingredients.
Located in the science and research—driven Biopolis neighborhood, Infuzi is a modern European eatery run by chef Freddie Lee. The high-ceilinged dining room is furnished with decorative glass walls, and small, intimate tables are illuminated by candlelight.
A plate of slippery rice noodles loaded with Chinese sausage, eggs, and fish-cake nuggets should do the trick.
This laid-back open-air hangout in Changi's rooftop cactus garden has spectacular views of the runway, live jazz on weeknights, and a well-stocked cigar lounge.
Owned by husband and wife Emmanuel Stroobant and Edina Hong, Saint Pierre is widely considered one of Singapore's finest restaurants thanks to Stroobant's innovative take on French and Japanese cuisine.
Broth, which is an acronym for Bar Restaurant on the Hill, stands out among the other Duxton Hill eateries thanks to its unique menu of Australian cuisine.
"Sin Huat is a wonderland of fresh seafood—notably the Crab Bee Hoon. The service, however, could be described as borderline hostile, and the decor? Nonexistent. Grab your own Tiger beer from the case, and hopefully, eventually, someone will bring mugs and ice. Yes.
Originally founded in Taiwan, Din Tai Fung is a casual Chinese restaurant serving traditional dim sum, rice, and noodle dishes. The popularity of the restaurant's steamed dumplings launched a global enterprise with locations in the United States, Japan, China, and Korea.

email@example.com [2]
The Sturgis Board of Aldermen voted unanimously Tuesday to hold a workshop Feb. 12 to develop a counterproposal to the Sturgis South Bike Rally Board's 2013 motorcycle rally proposal, with an alderman liaison set to ask the rally board to meet jointly with the aldermen once the counterproposal is ready.
The decisions came after a debate among aldermen and Sturgis Mayor Walter Turner about the terms under which the city board agreed to discuss a new rally proposal in the first place. At the start of discussion, Turner said rally board president Donny Hanson had declined a joint meeting between the two boards that aldermen had proposed.
"I talked to Donny; he didn't see any reason for a meeting," Turner said. "He said, 'Just use last year's (rally proposal.) Nothing's changed.'"
The only change, Turner said, was the date of the rally, set for Aug. 16-18, 2013. Alderman Keith Parker said the circumstances of the proposal were inconsistent with a motion the board made in December to consider the contract.
"That's not what that motion says," Parker said. "It says the press will not be notified until a date has been set for a meeting between the two boards. (Hanson) hasn't even met with his board. Until we get a meeting set between the two boards, (nothing needs) to be said about the rally. In order to be legal, we have to go by what this paper says."
In a December Starkville Daily News report, Turner said the board would look at a 2013 rally proposal in January. McCool said he is concerned about multiple media outlets reporting on the new rally discussion, but Turner said he has only spoken with SDN reporters.
McCool said he also questioned Turner's decision to approach Hanson himself about a rally proposal instead of letting Alderman Mike Collins make that contact.
"I thought we had an agreement," McCool said. "We elected (Collins) to that position to be able to take care of the business between the two boards so there wouldn't be any confrontation, and now all of a sudden it (has blown) up like it has the last two years. Everybody's running around all over town, (saying) we're (going) to have it. We haven't even discussed it yet."
Alderman Amanda Page also questioned Turner's decision.
"Why did you approach (Hanson) and not leave it to Mike?" Page said. "Mike is the liaison. Leave it to him to find out the facts and bring it to the board."
Collins said several people asked him about the rally last week after Turner's statements went to print, leading him to call Hanson himself Friday.
"(Hanson) didn't know a thing about the proposal at that time. He told me he had not met with his people yet," Collins said. "I asked him if he had mentioned any of this to the media; he told me no, that they hadn't even met yet. He was waiting until after the holidays to get his group together."
However, Collins said he also spoke with Hanson Monday, and Hanson told him about submitting the 2012 proposal again through Turner. He said he and Hanson shared a specific concern about further rally discussion.
"Twice in two years we've turned their proposals down, but we have never actually (written) up a counterproposal to let them know what we want," Collins said. "He (doesn't) want to actually sit down and meet until we've got something that we want (written) down and they've got what they want (written) down. Then, we can compare notes."
Turner then said he would approach Hanson about a joint board meeting, and several board members immediately protested, saying Collins should approach Hanson instead. Parker then suggested the city hold a workshop to develop the counterproposal.
"Let's get something we can not shout about," Parker said.
McCool said he agreed, and he wanted to avoid the confrontations the aldermen have seen in previous rally discussions.
"We don't need to push and rush on this, not again," McCool said. "That's the way it's been the last two years."

Bridges at Mint Hill
Posted 24 January 2005 - 12:50 AM
1.3 million square feet of restaurants, entertainment, stores in stylish, open-air setting
A mall-size retail development is in the works for a 200-acre tract in east Mecklenburg on the outskirts of Mint Hill.
Developers General Growth Properties Inc. of Chicago and Charlotte's Childress Klein Properties are teaming on The Bridges at Mint Hill at Interstate 485 and Lawyers Road.
Their goal is to open in spring 2007.
At 1.3 million square feet, the upscale open-air retail and entertainment center would be slightly smaller than SouthPark and Concord Mills, each about 1.4 million square feet, but it won't look like either of them.
There would be no enclosed mall. Department stores -- a 150,000-square-foot Belk is the first to be announced -- specialty shops, restaurants and a movie theater would be free-standing amid pedestrian-friendly amenities and water features.
The design incorporates some of the features of Childress Klein Properties' Promenade on Providence shopping center at Providence Road and I-485, but the closest thing to the Mint Hill concept in this region probably is the outdoor portion of The Streets at SouthPoint in Durham.
It was the first shopping complex in the state to combine an enclosed mall with outdoor stores.
SouthPoint clusters shops and restaurants outside along a main street with three water fountains to give visitors the experience of strolling along a traditional American downtown avenue.
"A lot is still being determined as we do the site plan and architectural layout for The Bridges at Mint Hill, but you could say it will be The Streets at SouthPoint taken to a new level," said General Growth Properties spokeswoman Julie Jacoby.
General Growth, the nation's second-largest shopping center owner, owns The Streets at SouthPoint as well as Carolina Place mall in Pineville.
The signature features and the namesake of The Bridges at Mint Hill will be pedestrian and vehicular bridges over a creek that runs through the site.
Childress Klein's Chris Thomas said developers might be able to start site work by the end of the year. He didn't disclose the price tag. Local experts say such construction typically costs about $100 a square foot, which would put the cost in the range of $130 million.
The project -- in the works for more than three years -- is the latest example of I-485's potential to transform formerly rural acreage as it encircles the county.
In many cases controversy follows, but the developers of this project say they have worked in harmony with Mint Hill officials and believe they are proceeding in step with the town's vision for the interchange.
They filed a rezoning petition late last week with the town, which has jurisdiction over the property, now zoned for residential development.
Thomas characterized the land as "a mixture of rural residential and pasture land. There are a lot more cows than people."
The developers view the new center as a gateway to Mint Hill and as an extension of the town's central business district. Lawyers Road is the main thoroughfare linking downtown Mint Hill to I-485, about two miles away.
The development plan calls for Mint Hill -- about 15,000 population in the last census -- to annex the center.
Mint Hill Mayor Ted Biggers couldn't be reached Friday for comment. But in a prepared statement, he said, "Childress Klein and General Growth Properties have a great reputation for delivering high-quality projects that are community friendly. It will be interesting to see what they bring to Mint Hill."
Keith MacVean, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Planning Commission's zoning administrator, said he was informed of the project. But since it's in Mint Hill's jurisdiction, he hasn't been involved.
"It sounds like a great approach to that large a retail center -- open-air and pedestrian-oriented," he said. "Our concern -- if we're going to have a concern -- is it's close to the interchange. Are we overloading our interchanges with destination areas that tend to clog up?"
He said he expects Mint Hill officials and the developers to conduct traffic studies and work with the state to minimize traffic backup on access ramps.
Childress Klein's Thomas said the Mint Hill trade area is "underserved by quality retailers." He said people who live in the area typically drive to Carolina Place in Pineville, SouthPark in south Charlotte or Eastland Mall in east Charlotte.
The developers say The Bridges of Mint Hill would be about halfway between SouthPark and Concord Mills. Northlake mall, to open in September, is off I-77 in north Mecklenburg, more than 15 miles away.
The Mint Hill center is expected to attract shoppers from parts of Union and Cabarrus counties as well as Mecklenburg.
It would be about eight miles east of 1.2 million-square-foot Eastland Mall on Central Avenue. The potential impact on Eastland is unclear.
Eastland has three department stores -- Belk, Dillard's and Sears -- but it has been in the midst of a makeover in recent years. A public-private coalition is working to turn it into a community center on the east side.
Belk spokesman Steve Pernotto said, "It's way too soon to say" if the new Mint Hill store would have any effect on the Belk at Eastland.
The Mint Hill department store would be less than half the size of Belk's flagship, 329,000-square-foot store at SouthPark. Pernotto said it would stock "a significant portion of the most wanted merchandise" and emphasize fashion in all areas, from cosmetics to home.
It would be full service and include a gift registry, gift-wrapping and alterations.
He said the store -- a roughly $16 million investment -- would resemble a free-standing store that has been successful for Belk at Mount Pleasant Towne Centre outside Charleston.
"That whole open-air concept is unique," he said. "It's almost a mini city where you can walk and talk and sit outside -- and you don't need an automobile to go from store to store."
In addition to Belk, The Bridges at Mint Hill is expected to have two other free-standing anchors of similar size plus specialty stores, restaurants, a bookstore and a movie theater.
The developers say design plans aren't detailed enough yet for them to say how many stores would be included. Malls in the million-square-foot range typically have 100 or more.
The theater would be the centerpiece of a restaurant-entertainment district fronting Lawyers Road. An open-air street of shops would be built along I-485.

Dillard's will *leave* their location at Eastland mall for this new location
Best Buy and Toys R Us are both scouting new locations due to much increased crime at their Independence Boulevard locations, and this new center sounds appealing.
and the usual "always" rumor that comes when new malls are announced that
Sears, JC Penney, Hecht's and dept. stores of the sort could also be heading to this center
your thoughts...

It's hard enough making a left going southbound on the 485 exit at Lawyers as it is, makes my drive home worse. They should really make sure they have the infrastructure in place before starting such a development off of a two lane road like this.

Do you all think that charlotte's lack of budge in granting retail zoning at albemarle/485 drove developers/Mint Hill to do such a large project outside of Charlotte's limits? They refused to grant the changes because they didn't want to risk the current retail areas... but if they fail anyway, then charlotte lost all that revenue.
Posted 24 January 2005 - 10:23 PM
If these stores all ditch eastland and independence and go waaaaaaaaay out to mint hill, it may open up the possibility of these stores opening near uptown eventually. Otherwise, i think this is terrible news for the east side, and independence corridor. With Harris Teeter already gone from Independence, losing Best Buy will be a a very bad omen.

I don't think this had much to do with the Albemarle/485 thing since this had been planned for years at Lawyers Rd... developers really wanted to do something either at 485 and Lawyers or 485 and Idlewild.

I'm sure the people in Mint Hill are estatic, but even if the anchor stores at Eastland don't immediately close, they're probably going to fade away fast.
Belk's already cut back a lot, and I've been figuring they're going to close as soon as they the get the Nothlake store on its feet anyway. Throwing Mint Hill into the mix definately makes it toast.

What are they thinking? Two simlar projects that close with that population base are going to spread the store offerings too thin and increase the spawl. What inevitably happens is that one mall fails in time because there's not enough business to keep it afloat.
It would be better for everyone involved if the stores gathered at one exit and a coordinated trasportation and pedestrian system to move people from the highway and parking to the main center through the coming satelite centers was constructed. The way they're setting this up, people who want to comparasin shop at, say, Belk & Dillard's will have to get back in the car and repark, wasting gas and time.
I don't understand fully why these stores feel they need to leave Eastland. The place is always full. Don't people in that neighborhood deserve good places to shop, too?
Posted 14 February 2005 - 09:26 AM
However, the demographics around Eastland have changed to the point that most of the people in the area will not support this type of retail. Putting food on the table is more important than wasting money in a Mall store. Hence, the mall, Eastland fails in its original purpose.
Some malls enjoy a resurgence in being re-born as something else. The Tryon Mall -> Asian Mall tranformation is the biggest example of this in Charlotte. Sadly behemothis such as Eastland are so expensive because of their size, this may never happen. And to worsen the problem, the Charlotte City Council allows other malls to be built with the same stores where the "pickings" are better. Case in point, Northlake being built in the affluent North. (the affluent part is actually beyond the Charlotte city limits in the North but the Northern towns would never approve a mall such as Northlake)
Posted 14 February 2005 - 06:51 PM
We're always talking about as a culture why people buy so much stuff and how bad certain retailers are. The reason we shop so much, along with incessant, presuasive marketing, is that humans of all types, even in the seemingly least materialistic cultures, define themselves by what they have. Even simple remote villages in Africa and Asia have people who define themselves by what they have, even if it's just a little more than the next guy. You can't fight human nature.
The reason that retailers define themselves as upscale, downscale, and whatever's in-between is because someone had sense enough to tap into people's egoes to make money to live a better life. That, my friend, is capitalism at work.
I don't fault the Nordstroms, the Belks, the Waltons, or any of their investors or merchants for making me feel at home in their store so I can buy stuff I don't need. I'm glad to shop wherever I shop, and it makes me feel good to do so. I don't care if you think SouthPark's too expensive; as long as you don't deride me for spending my money as I please. We can agree to disagree and stay out of each other's pocketbooks. I'm not alone in this opinion.
Concerning Eastland, I don't think it's a failure any more than I thought Uptown Charlotte was a failure when it emptied in the '70s and '80s. It just needs to redefine itsef to fit into its new environment. That may mean some major changes, but they're achievable if the parties involved work towards them with an open mind.
It's not a question of money as much as you would think either. Belk, for example, even with the cutbacks it's made over the past several years, sells almost as expensive merchandise in certain departments at Eastland as it does at SouthPark. You may not know this, but no malls in truly 'poor' neighborhoods have department stores that carry high-dollar MAC Cosmetics as Belk Eastland does. Carolina Place, at last check, didn't even sell them.
A store like Target, for example, would be a great fit for the mall, but I doubt one is coming because it's a 'bad' (read: Black and Latino) neighborhood with 'high crime.' Last time I checked, people were being attacked less at the corner of Central & Sharon Amity than at the corner of Sharon & Fairview, a supposed 'good' neighborhood.
Marketers refuse to acknowledge that minority customers want anything but sneakers and baby clothes and as such their marketing efforts fail, making malls like Eastland seem like they're in worse shape than they actually are.
The answers are simple, but will take some work to achieve. Satisfy the customer. Acknowledge the Black and Latino communites in the mix of merchandise, but don't put in stores that portray ethnic stereotypes. Provide community spaces, jobs and activities so that you don't have youths standing around doing nothing every night. Install security that isn't as intrusive but still keeps things secure. It's not imposssible.
Pushing development to the fringes to get rid of 'urban' consumers, which is seemingly what Belk and Dillard's are planning, won't solve anything. If Eastland shuts down, all those 'bad and poor' poeple who shop there are going to go to the next closest mall, and the retrenchment from that mall and neighborhood will start. Unless you stop the cycle, it will continue unabated.

this was in the paper 2 days ago
Are you interested in learning how far our region has come in working cooperatively to develop in sustainable ways? Do you want to see our streams protected from further degradation? Do you wonder if the Endangered Species Act is worth the paper it is written on?
And, is it possible for Mint Hill to plop a mall nearly the size of SouthPark right in the middle of the habitat of a creature on the verge of extinction?

Ivanka Trump Debuts Baby Bump in Tight Gold Dress — See Pic!
We are fired up about this exciting news!
Ivanka Trump, who appears with her father Donald on Celebrity Apprentice, debuted her cute little baby bump at a glitzy event on April 11, according to Us Weekly.
Ivanka attended the 2013 American Museum of Natural History Museum Dance in NYC, wearing a gold Roberto Cavalli gown that showed off more than a little cleavage.
Also detectable was her baby bump, which is currently tiny.
Click here to see a pic of 31-year-old Ivanka and her bump. She looks ravishing in her beautiful dress, no?
New broke last week that Ivanka is expecting her second child with hubby Jared Kushner.
Ivanka and Jared got hitched in 2009 and have a 20-month-old daughter, Arabella.
"Jared and I and are so excited that Arabella will become a big sister this fall," Ivanka tweeted on April 11. "Thanks for all your good wishes!"

I met my brde in 1961 and we have been together ever since. She used the Narcisse Noir Perfume (NNP)almost daily. About forty years ago NNP "disappeared" from the over-the-counter market. Since NNP was her and MY favorite scent, I began searching for it, then, in every country and airport I visited/worked---North, Central and South America, Caribbean, Middle East Gulf States, Central West Africa, and Heathrow, Charles de Gaulle and Frankfurt Am Mein airports--I have never been to European cities. My search for the NNP wase unsuccesful (athough the Cologne was available, it was unacceptable, to my bride). Recently a friend pointed me to the Fragrancex.com website, and--VOILA! I am now searching for MY predilection--Ecusson--also unavailable for about 40 years. Moncho

This perfume reminds me of Jardins de Bagatelle by Guerlain. But Jardins is milder and, maybe, not so decadent. In general Narcisse is a lovely perfume for any occasion with its beautiful jasmine and neroli that doesn't become soapy even in combination with musk.

Forest Biomass Supply Assessment Updated 8/2/12
The "Washington Forest Biomass Supply Assessment" was completed in March 2012. The study examines the sustainable volume of residual forest biomass that can be collected from Washington's working forests. The study is a the first of its kind in the nation and will help ensure that Washington's forest biomass-to-energy sector move forward sustainably. There will be two workshops, one east and one west of the Cascades, that will provide more detail on the study findings later in the spring. Please check this webpage for more details. Prior to entering into long-term contracts for forest biomass from state managed lands, DNR must first assess the available supply of biomass in the contract area (See HB 2165 Section 4). In 2010, DNR sought and ultimately received a $1M grant from the U.S. Forest Service (USFS), a portion of which has been allocated to a statewide forest biomass supply study.
Because 2SHB 2481 requires DNR to complete a biomass supply assessment before entering into long-term contracts for biomass supply from DNR managed lands, an aggressive timeline for the project has been developed. After a competitive Request for Proposals and careful analyses of proposals and bids received, in November 2010, DNR selected the University of Washington (who will be working with TSS Consultants) to conduct the research. The project is scheduled for completion by August 2011, with interim reports provided to the agency throughout the research process.
There will be several public meetings where the University of Washington will present progress on the project over the course of the year. These meetings are scheduled for March, June, and September. Please check this website for more information on the meetings as the dates approach.
Scope of StudyThe study will help assess forest biomass availability and sustainability throughout Washington State on all forest land ownerships, including state-owned lands, as well as fulfill the specific requirements under 2SHB 2481 Section 2(1). The grant will, in addition to the supply study, enable DNR and partners to test methods for making forest biomass material available from broad, multi-landowner areas with the aim to improve the economic feasibility of protecting forests from wildfire and restoring forest health.
The forest biomass supply assessment will build on previous biomass supply analyses, refining and improving upon them by using finer-scale data and evaluating individual land managers' objectives, operational and economic factors for biomass availability, and environmental sustainability. A range of supply estimates will be developed encompassing all forestland owners statewide, and will further break down these estimates within a series of logical supply tributary areas.
The study approach will include the following methodological elements to determine what volume of biomass from Washington forests is both economically and ecologically available:
The project will also result in the development of a biomass calculator tool that allows for customized biomass availability estimates based on user-defined inputs. This tool will be made available to the public and will be utilized by the agency in developing long-term supply contracts for forest biomass from public lands.
Stay tunedMay and June Progress Reports coming soon.

Recently, I went shopping with a close friend to catch up. A lot of items caught my eye during that afternoon of shopping, but there was one piece of jewelry that kept me thinking all day. My friend and I ventured into Charlotte Russe since they seemed to have some decent sales going on.
While we were waiting in line at the cash register, I saw a stretchy ring that had a word attached to it. It said "Taken" in all capital letters. I showed it to my friend, and we spent a minute talking and laughing about how silly it was to wear something like that. I didn't think much of it after leaving the store. However, it was when I saw several other pieces of jewelry with the same word spread across it that I started to subtly obsess over it.
But what does this all mean — are we really these relationship-obsessed people? Has the "relationship status" on our social networking sites put a brand on our outward appearance?

The Ribchester Cavalry Sports Helmet was a Roman Sports helmet found in Ribchester England. The masked style Roman helmet dates from the 1st C. AD. Cavalry sports equipment and helmets were used by teams of Roman Cavalry (Hippica Gymnasia). The games were played as one team would charge the other and throw light dummy javelins. Points were scored for hits on the other team. Our Ribchester Cavalry Sports Helmet is made from hand embossed brass. The detachable face mask is a solid casting and attaches with leather straps. Standard internal circumference of 23 inches.

LAST year's Kobe earthquake exposed Japanese earthquake engineering as fundamentally flawed, says a leading Japanese architect. The Kobe quake produced vertical, horizontal and twisting movements at the same time. "None of our engineering models ever looked at such a situation before, so we had no idea how buildings and other structures were going to react," says Yoshiteru Murosaki of Kobe University.
And while office blocks and hotels are designed to withstand earthquakes, most Japanese homes are more vulnerable than they were a hundred years ago, says Murosaki in the Red Cross's latest
"About a hundred universities in Japan teach earthquake engineering and architecture, but I know of only one or two that teach anything about wooden house design. Yet 80 per cent of Japanese people live in wooden houses," he says.
Until a century ago, Japanese wood-framed houses had loose joints that allowed for ...

During the adjournment debate session at the National Assembly onWednesday, 19 December 2012, the member for Jokadu called on the Agribusiness Services and Producers' Association (ASPA) to increasethe price of groundnuts to prevent the farmers from selling their nutsto the neighbouring countries.
"It is incumbent for (ASPA) and Gambia Groundnut Corporation (GGC) inconsultation with the Ministry of Finance and Economic Affairs toreview the price of groundnut at a higher rate", said Hon. AmadouKhan, National Assembly Member for Jokadu.The Jokadu NAM calls for the increment of groundnut price beforelosing the market to the neighbouring countries that are offeringbetter prices.
He said he went round the 'lumos' in his constituencyand discovered that the ASPA agents are losing the markets. He arguedthat the way things are going in the groundnut subsector would affectthe economy."Many people are hoarding their groundnuts with the expectation ofselling the 250 kg bags for two thousand dalasi in the next months tocome", he disclosed.Hon. Khan complained that the farm gate price is not favourable tomost farmers in the country. He complained of inconsistencies in theprice of groundnuts as many buying agents are involved in thebusiness.
He cited agencies that are going to homes to buy groundnutswithout any form of screening."As mentioned in the 'Budget Speech, there was about 60 percent cropfailure last year. We should assume 60 percent of the farmers did nothave seed nuts for this year. Then, where is the bumper harvest?" heasked.The Jokadu NAM disagreed with the notion of bumper harvest as sixtypercent of the farmers did not get seed nuts. He called on theregulators of the groundnut subsector to review the price before itwould be late.However, Hon. FabakaryTombong Jatta, Majority Leader and Member forSerrekunda East also raised concern on the price of groundnut. He saidthe groundnut is the cash crop in the Gambian economy, adding that thegovernment has left the pricing of groundnuts to both ASPA and GGC forthe past years."As the member said, farmers must be consulted in determining theprice of the groundnut", he added.
Meanwhile, Hon. Ousman Njie, Member for Sami, called for more focus onirrigation and the livestock subsector. He stressed the need forinvestment on irrigation infrastructure to improve agriculturalproductivity particularly rice cultivation. He argued that livestockdevelopment is a good source of income for farmers."I enjoin all Gambians particularly farmers to rear small ruminants toboost market capacity for the supply of 'Tobaski' rams to reducereliance on foreign markets", he added.

INSURANCE companies that pledged to pool premiums for political risk and terrorism covers have until tomorrow to each pay up their Sh2.2 million contribution to the kitty.
The idea of pooling resources for political risk and terrorism covers was brought up by Association of Kenya Insurers to make it affordable to insurance firms to offer this product to their clients as demand goes up ahead of the March 4 general election.
"I hope they will not ask us to change the deadline," AKI executive director Tom Gichuhi told the Star in a phone interview. The pool will enable local firms buy a joint reinsurance cover to transfer their risks to.
Africa Trade Insurance Agency (ATI) is expected to be the reinsurance partner for the firms as it has been working together with AKI on the modalities of setting up the pool.
Last week, ATI said it expects the first premium installment to the pool to be paid for before the elections. It has emerged that several international reinsurance firms which have deals with local insurers are cutting back their risk exposure by between 30 and 40 per cent because the country is being perceived as highly risky.
This has led to premiums rising to over 50 per cent making them too expensive for most people to afford, hence the need for a local insurance pool for political risk and terrorism cover.
At least 20 companies are said to be party to the premium pool and Gichuhi said he is optimistic that they will pay up given the importance of the cover at this time.
The idea of political risk and terrorism pool by local insurers was mooted after the 2007/2008 elections which caught many insurance firms, the business community and individual clients unprepared.
Most clients then did not have the cover and insurance firms had to pay some select claims on an ex gratia basis. This means paying on good will and not acceptance of liability because the claim does not meet the terms of the existing insurance contract between the two parties.

What can I surprise my boyfriend with on his first day at the new job?
My boyfriend will be starting a new job in a few days and I want to surprise him with something sweet in the morning to send him off on a positive... Show More
Most Helpful Opinion
Ohh tough one...lol I do not know what he likes, so I can't really answer this...ummm
okay..I will tell you what I'd do for my BF.
I would make him lunch..but, not just a sandwich and chips..that won't do! this is a new job! so, I'd make him something where he could heat it up..but, still taste good. Like, my boyfriend really likes hamburger helper. lol...He is addicted to that sh*t!...I would make something else but, he really likes it lol. Or, you can also make him something that you know he'd really like. Once I made my boyfriend cheeseburgers and mac and cheese..And, the note is also a great idea. So, yeah that is a good idea :) Also, I would surprise him with a new CD he has been wanting..Like my boyfriend loves Eminem..So, I'd go get him that new CD. Though, he already has it lol..but, there are others I could get. And, in the note, I would say "here is something to get you up and going!" Because, I mean come on! A new CD by one of his faves would excite him and get him in a happy mood, no? :)
Maybe meet him afterward and have dinner with him? And, see how things went?
I am not sure. Once, my boyfriend was sick..but, decided to go to work anyway..so, I went out..bought tons of meds lol and also bought a teddy bear with candy in it lol with a get well card. It was a surprise and he saw it when he woke up. I thought it might be a little much..but he seemed to like it.
Just saying..you might think things are a little much, but might be surprised.
Anyway, I know I couldn't help that much..but, good luck! I wish you the best! <3 <3 <3 <3
Actually that was pretty helpful lol. I was going to just go with a sandwich, I wasn't even thinking of stuff he could heat up. I like that idea better! The CD is a good idea too. But instead of buying him one I think I'd probably burn him a mix of songs he likes. That's usually what he listens to anyway. Thanks for putting so much thought into your answer! I knew you'd give me a good one :)
- Show Older Hide Older
awww that is a great idea! he will love it! xx
aww I am so happy for you! <3
What Guys Said 4
The best thing in the morning, I think if you want to really send him off on a positive note is make him breakfast and a nice hot cup of coffee and a big good morning kiss. Oh and yeah the lunch thing is awesome. And so that you know, you rock, because you care so much.
Haha thanks :)
And he's not a breakfast eater so I can't really do that. But the coffee and big kiss is a good idea!
i was thinking more like blowjob would have worked...yeah a nice breakfast is very brady bunch...but wakin up to a bj...thats much nicer than ground beef with teddy grahams in it. oh god. lol!
Well like I said, BJ wasn't a possibility. And he loved the beef and teddy grahams so it looks like I made a good choice :)
Sometimes if you put sexual words like a 'blow job' on a question it automatically goes into the Sexuality category
I still think a morning bj for his morning wood is still a good idea, forget his parents
I know you can go to his work and treat him for lunch, take him to get something to eat and then give him a blowjob
I know, this website is retarded... Anyway, I can't he's going to be working an hour away. And I have my own job to go to lol. Don't you have any ideas other than a blow job?
Give him a blowjob and have awesome sex the night before
Good for you, no blowjob but that's still nice
Why is a morning bj not possible, I'd think it'd be the best thing to put him in a great mood in the morning
Because he lives with his parents and they're supremely Christian.
You could say your pregnant they'd get happy, and I've read that swallowing semen can actually help with the development of the baby
So you could say that to his parents
Yeah cause they'd love to hear that I was having a baby out of wedlock lol. You're not helping.
What Girls Said 3
i like the lunch with the good luck note, but don't just write good luck, do a more meaningful message than that, also I don't know if you mean that a blow job is not possible at all or if it is just that morning, because you could include a little coupon book or something for him saying that this coupon is for a blow job, this one is for a hug, this one is for a kiss, etc. it could be sort of fun if you like the idea
Yeah it would say more than just "good luck." lol I can't give him a blowjob because he lives with his parents and they're VERY Christian. I like the coupon book idea, I thought of that too. But I think I'd rather save that for his birthday or Valentine's.
okay ha ha that makes sense, but then if you want to save the coupon book idea maybe just plan to hang out and watch a movie so he can relax after his first day of work or something
Yeah that's a pretty good idea. Thanks :)
Have an opinion?

For the record, I'm a fan of J Rob's outspoken style though.
