This invention relates to coffers for holding or storing numismatical coins, medals or the like, and particularly to a coffer of this type having a plurality of tablets each for holding a plurality of coins.
Coffers of this type comprise a bottom wall, a cover wall, side and back walls connecting same and a predetermined number of tablets holding coins, which tablets are adapted to slide between said walls. These prior art coffers include a solid back wall and solid side walls, the side walls each including guiding means for the predetermined number of tablets. Such a coffer is disclosed in German Utility Model No. 1,993,025.
The disadvantage of this prior art coffer resides in that the box type enclosure in any case is adapted only for an exactly predetermined number of tablets and thus has a fixed size. For smaller size numismatical collections such a coffer is usually too big, in many cases it further takes up too much space. Similar difficulties arise when the collection slightly exceeds the standard capacity of such a coffer: either some of the coins must be stored outside the coffer, or a complete coffer must be obtained and, above all, stored.
Therefore single coin holding tablets have been proposed which may be stacked upon each other. If a plurality of such tablets are stacked on each other, it is only the uppermost tablet which is accessible, to gain access to the other tablets, all tablets stacked on top of that must first be removed. Such tablets are disclosed in German Utility Model No. 1,960,379.
It is, therefore, an object of the invention to provide a coffer for storing numismatical coins, medals or the like which is adapted to collections of any size and in which simultaneously each individual tablet is separately accessible.
According to one aspect of the invention a coffer for storing numismatical coins comprises a bottom wall, a cover wall, side and back walls joining them, and at least one tablet for holding coins slidable between said walls, and said bottom wall and cover wall form separate components while for each tablet there is provided a U-shaped frame which is securely fastened to the bottom and cover wall, and/or other similar frames above or below it, respectively, and including a guiding means for the tablet, the side walls of the coffer being defined by the legs, and the back wall defined by the crosspieces of the individual U-shaped frames. In this manner a closed coffer may be assembled for practically any desired number of tablets which are individually accessible without using substantially more space than occupied directly by the tablets.
The tablets themselves may be designed in any desired manner, thus they may include partitions or compartments for taking up individual coins, or may be adapted to take up prefabricated inserts for individual coins or sets of coins.
As bottom or cover wall a relatively thin plate should be sufficient, if measures are provided to make the joint to the edges and frames sufficiently strong. Such a strong joint is obtained with the least expense if the bottom wall and/or the cover wall are each made integral with a frame. It should be noted that it is sufficient to do that at the bottom wall or the cover wall; if desired, a coffer may then be assembled having only one single tablet, still maintaining the stability obtained by integral forming.
Generally it is to be considered that the size of the collection to be stored in the coffer changes with time, and to adapt the coffer to such a change, according to one feature of the invention, each frame is releasably positively connected to the cover wall, bottom wall, or other frames respectively. As the connection is releasable, it is possible to remove individual frames from the coffer, to dissolve the coffer in part, and to add new frames, respectively, and by the positive joint the necessary solidity is ensured.
For a positive joint of the frames a variety of possibilities are available. Advantageously at the crosspiece of each frame a lug is disposed in the plane of the frame, and a correspondingly shaped recess is provided in the opposite side of the crosspiece, the bottom wall and the cover wall presenting the same recess, and lug, respectively, and locking means are provided at the front side of the legs of each frame, the bottom wall, and the cover wall. For assembling a frame when only the lug of the frame is inserted into the recess of the adjacent frame, then the two adjacent frames are folded together, and the locking means on the front side is closed.
In the preferred embodiment of the invention each leg is provided with a recess adjacent the free end thereof, and on the opposite side a projection fitting into same, and at least in the leg portion between recess and free end, and the projection each have a bore parallel to the axis of the leg, and there is provided a locking bolt fitting into both bores. After folding adjacent frames together only the locking bolts need be inserted, and the desired secure joint of the adjacent frames is complete. The same holds, of course, for the positive joint to the bottom and cover wall.
The locking bolt must, of course, fit to one of the bores so that it is held therein. The simplest way to achieve that is to provide for frictional engagement, and then it is advantageous to make the locking bolt out of an other material than the frame and the tablets. This is particularly true for components made of plastic since frictional engagement of identical plastic materials has a tendency for jamming.
In a specific embodiment of the invention the locking bolt includes a head having a nose defining an extension of the tablet guiding means of a frame. This has the advantage that the frame may be kept correspondingly smaller so that in the disassembled condition it takes up less space.
If and when in this or another manner the locking bolt takes part in guiding the tablet, it is possible to keep the individual tablets in their slid-in position only by frictional engagement without the already mentioned danger of jamming. It is then only necessary to fit each tablet loosely to the frame guiding means, and with close fit to the head of the locking bolt at which due to the different materials no jamming may occur.
To obtain such guiding of the tablet by the head of the locking bolt, it is necessary to define the position of the head of the locking bolt in a precise manner, and to obtain that advantageously each locking bolt has a means to prevent rotation. Various possibilities are available to achieve that, it is convenient to use for this purpose a pin fitting into a bore extending into the front side of the frame leg. This pin simultaneously may be utilised to assure the correct position of the locking bolt in the assembled coffer in the first place.
The coffer according to the invention is well adapted for storing of a coin collection, during transport problems may be encountered because the individual tablets are only frictionally kept in position, so that there is the danger that upon substantial shocks or the like individual tablets may become loose from the coffer.
To resolve that in a specific embodiment of the invention there is therefore disposed in at least one leg of each U-shaped frame a rotational lock which extends, in one rotational position, in a recess at the side edge of the slid-in tablet, which rotational lock presents, on its upper face, a recess having non-round cross-section, and on the lower face a projection shaped corresponding to the recess in the rotational lock of the frame disposed thereunder. When in such a coffer the rotational lock in the lowest or uppermost frame is rotated, all other rotational legs are rotated jointly therewith and extend into the recess of the associated tablet, or are rotated out of engagement into this recess.
In addition it is possible to prevent unauthorised access to the coffer by mounting a key lock at the cover wall which lock has a projection shaped corresponding to the recess of a rotational lock disposed thereunder and engaging same.
During transporting the closed coffer the rotational locks are maintained in their position by the frame above, and cover, and bottom plate, respectively, when individual frames are shipped or transported, it may happen, however, that the rotational lock falls out of the frame. To prevent that at each rotational lock there may be provided a groove extending around a portion of its periphery, and a pin engaging said groove is inserted into each frame. Such a pin keeps the rotational lock in each rotational position positively in the frame, so that it cannot be lost.

The bottom wall shown in FIG. 1 to 4 comprises a bottom plate 21 having reinforcing ribs 22 and an integral U-shaped frame having a crosspiece 23 and two legs 24. The crosspiece 23 presents on its inner side a recess 25 having the shape of a groove extending over the major portion of the length of the crosspiece.
The thickness of the two legs 24 is larger adjacent their free ends than in the remaining portion, and in these thickened portions a recess 26 is provided the depth of which is equal to the size of the thickening. In the thickened portion there is provided a bore 27 parallel to the bottom plate 21, and below, in the actual leg, a shorter bore 28. At the outside of the leg and the crosspiece there is each provided a peripheral flange which extends so far beyond leg, and crosspiece, respectively, as the thickening at the face end of the legs.
At the inner side of the legs 24 each are provided three guide portions 28a, 28b, and 28c. For fabrication of the bottom wall out of plastic material equally sized apertures 29a, 29b, 29c are provided under such guide portions in the bottom plate 21, through which apertures dies for the lower side of the guiding means may extend.
The cover wall shown in FIG. 5 and 6 comprises a cover plate 30, which conveniently is also provided with reinforcing ribs as the bottom plate 21, and an integral U-shaped frame comprising a crosspiece 31 and two legs 32. On the outer side of the crosspiece 31 there is provided a lug 33 which in shape and size is matched to the groove 25 in the inner side of the crosspiece 23 of the bottom wall according to FIG. 1 to 4.
The legs 32 are adapted to fit on the legs 24 of the bottom wall frame adjoining the peripheral flange and terminate where the thickening at the free end of the legs 24 of the bottom portion begins. Corresponding to the recess 26 in the thickening of the bottom wall leg 24 a projection 34 is provided which in shape and size is matched to the recess 26 and has a bore 35 corresponding to the bore 27.
The coin tablet shown in FIG. 7 comprises a plate 36 which in the embodiment shown in the drawing is reinforced by partitions 37 and label carrying webs 38, and an integral supporting frame 39. On the outer face of the narrow sides of the rectangle formed by the frame 39 grooves are provided which are loosely fitted to the guiding means 24; such grooves are not shown for clarity.
At the rearward end of the tablet frame 39 short tapers are provided serving to facilitate insertion of the tablet into the frame. At the front end the tablet frame includes two laterally protruding lugs 40 which in the slid-in condition of the tablet extend across the front faces of the legs 24. Adjacent to the lugs 40 the frame 39 is slightly thickened for a short distance at 41, and this thickening blends into the frame via a 5� -taper 42.
The locking bolt shown in FIG. 8 to 11 comprises a head 45, the actual locking bolt 46, and a pin 47 parallel to the bolt 46. On the external side the head 45 presents a recess 48 and on the opposite side a leg 49 the dimensions of which are matched to that of the guiding portion 28c. The dimensions of the bolt 46 are matched to the bore 27 in the bottom portion, and 34 in the cover portion, respectively; the dimensions of the pin 47 are matched to those of the bore 28 in the bottom wall.
For assembling a coffer for a tablet according to FIG. 7 the lug 33 of the cover wall according to FIG. 5 and 6 is inserted into the groove 25 of the bottom wall according to FIG. 2 to 4, and then the cover wall is so flapped onto the bottom wall that the projection 34 engages recess 26. Thereafter the locking bolt according to FIG. 8 to 11 is inserted, i.e. the bolt 46 into the bore 27 of the bottom wall and into the bore 35 of the cover wall, and the pin 47 into the bore 28 of the bottom wall. The lock holds itself by frictional engagement in the bores, thus need not be fastened again. The locking bolt is made of another material, such as polypropylene, than the bottom and cover wall, which are made, for example, of polystyrene, so that inspite of frictional engagement no jamming of the locking bolt at the other portions may occur. The locking bolt thus may be withdrawn at any time, and the coffer disassembled, if desired.
Thereafter the tablet according to FIG. 7 is inserted in such a manner that the (not shown) guiding groove slides across the projections 49 of the heads of the two locking bolts on the right, and left, respectively, side, as well as the guiding means 28 in the frame of the bottom wall. Insertion is facilitated on the one hand by the tapers at the tablet and, on the other hand, by tapering the projection 49 in accordance with FIG. 11 and rounding its front edge according to FIG. 10. During insertion the tablet, on the major portion of its travel slides with ample clearance across the head of the locking bolt, only on the latter portion of the insertion way it is adjusted by the tapers 42 more exactly with respect to the two heads on the right and left, respectively, front face, until it engages frictionally the two heads 45 of the locking bolts during the last portion of its way corresponding to the thickening 41, so that it is maintained in its position by frictional engagement.
The frame shown in FIG. 12 to 14 corresponds on its upper face to the frame of the bottom wall, and on its lower face it corresponds to the frame of the cover wall. Accordingly, the internal face of the crosspiece includes a groove 51 according to groove 25 of the frame of the bottom wall, and on the external face of the crosspiece it includes a lug 52 according to lug 33 of the cover wall.
The two legs present a guiding means 53 corresponding to guiding means 28a to 28c of the bottom wall, except that they are continuous, and at the front end there is provided a thickening having a recess 54 according to recess 26 of the bottom wall. On the outer side there is provided a continuous peripheral flange much as at the bottom wall, the height of which corresponds to that of the thickening.
On the lower face there is provided a flange 55 corresponding to flange 32 of the cover wall, as well as a projection 56 corresponding to the projection 34 of the cover wall adjacent to the front end. In the thickening two bores 57, and 58, respectively, corresponding to the bores 27 and 28 in the bottom wall, and in projection 56 a bore 59 corresponding to bore 53 of the cover wall are provided.
For enlarging a coffer comprising only a cover and a bottom wall to adapt the coffer for taking up another tablet, the locking bolts are removed, the cover portion is folded out, and its lug 33 removed from groove 25. Thereafter the lug 52 of the frame is inserted into the groove 25, and the frame is so folded onto the bottom wall that the projection 56 engages recess 26. In the same manner as described with respect to locking the cover portion thereafter on the right and the left side each a locking bolt is inserted, the locking bolt to be inserted on the right hand side being the mirror image of the one shown in FIG. 8 to 11, much as for locking the cover wall.
Thereafter the cover wall is put upon the frame according to FIG. 12 to 14 in the same manner as it was put on to the bottom wall, and then locked, and eventually the two tablets to be taken up are inserted in the manner described above.
In the same manner practically any number of frames for taking up one tablet each may be inserted between cover and bottom wall, and removed again as may be seen without further explanation.
FIG. 15 shows a section through a leg 24' of a U-shaped frame integral with a bottom plate 21' at a place in which a rotational lock 60 is inserted into the leg 24', as well as the corresponding place of a cover plate 30' and an inserted tablet 21'.
The actual rotational lock comprises a cylindrical pivot 61, a conical, hexagonal projection 62 extending downwardly, and a cam-shaped (FIG. 16) locking portion 63 which includes a conical, hexagonal recess 64 shaped according to the shape of the projection 62. In the rotational position shown in the drawing the protruding portion of the cam 63 extends into a recess 65 in the side edge of the tablet 21' (FIG. 16) so that the tablet 21' may not be removed from the frame.
In the cylindrical portion 61 of the rotational lock there is provided a groove 66 extending around a portion of the periphery, which nut corresponds to a bore 67 in the frame leg 24' extending transversely to the axis of the rotational lock. A pin not shown for clarity may be inserted into said bore, which pin engages in each rotational position of the rotational lock into groove 66 and thus prevents any axial movement of the rotational lock 60.
A keylock 68 is disposed in the cover plate 30', which lock comprises a housing 69 and a rotational portion 70; the remaining portion of the keylock as spring for defining the open, and closed position, respectively, tumbler, keyway or keyhole and the like are known and therefore need not be detailed here. A projection 71 identical to the projection 62 of the rotational lock and engaging into recess 64 in rotational lock 60, see FIG. 15, projects from the lower end of the rotational portion 70.
In the embodiment shown the solid portion 69 of the keylock 68 is provided with a peripheral slot 72 including an undercut 73 in a side wall. A nose 74 of the cover 30' engages said undercut 73. When the lock 68 is inserted into the cover plate 30' the nose 74 is at first pressed back thanks to the resiliency of the material of the cover 30', and then snaps into the undercut 73 so that there is a positive fastening of the lock 68 within the cover plate 30'.
The cover plate 30' is put on the bottom portion 21' including the frame 24' in the same manner as described above, however with the addition that the rotational lock 60 and the rotating portion 70 of the lock 68 are brought into a predetermined position, for example the open position shown in FIG. 16 in broken lines. Since the two possible positions of the rotating portion 70 of the lock 68 are displaced by 90�, and the projection 71 and the recess 64 have hexagonal cross-section, projection 71 cannot completely engage recess 64 if and when a uniform rotational position is not obtained earlier. Assembly errors are thus prevented.
After assembly and insertion of a key into the rotational portion 70 of the lock 68 this may be brought into the other position, such as the locking position shown in solid lines in FIG. 16. Projection 71 drives, via positive engagement into recess 64, rotational lock 60.
If more than one U-shaped frame is to be utilized, the cover plate 30' need only be removed in the manner described above, the new U-shaped frame be inserted, and the cover plate 30' again be put upon same. Projection 71 of the rotational portion 70 of the lock 68 then engages into the rotational lock of the then inserted frame, and the corresponding projection 62 of this rotational lock then engages recess 64 of the rotational lock 60 in the bottom portion 21' which is shown here.
When the actual portions of the coffer, particularly the frames, are made of plastic, the rotational lock 60 and the keylock 68 are made conveniently of metal so that the key is adapted to transmit substantial turning moments into the lock and to transfer that onto a plurality of rotational locks, there being no danger for distorsions.

Minnesota @ Club Red
If you've seen the recent documentary Re:Generation, you're probably aware of the current trend of reconfiguring rock, pop, and other music forms by spicing 'em up with various electronica elements. But as any chef will tell you, sometimes the whole doesn't wind up tastier than the sum of its ingredients. Take the popular practice of dubstep artists' remixing the bombastic bass-infused EDM genre into every song imaginable, whether it's '80s cartoon theme songs (Inspector Gadget, Transformers) or pop and rock standards of the past. YouTube and SoundCloud are littered with hundreds of tracks that blend subharmonic wub-wub into Frank Sinatra's "I Won't Dance" or The Beatles' "Eleanor Rigby," often with mixed results. When producer Christian Bauhofer (also known by his stage name Minnesota) remixed The Mamas and the Papas single "California Dreamin'" last year, however, what resulted was a superior track. Unlike, say, Cragga's bass-y remix of the Marvelettes' 1961 hit "Please Mr. Postman," Bauhofer's dubstep tweakings mesh with the languid moodiness of the source material. It's just one way in which the Santa Cruz-based artist's work ranks above his more brostep-inclined brethren, as Bauhofer's more interested in ambiently indolent dubscapes filled with subtlety, more in line with the EDM genre's roots than creating the sort of adrenaline-soaked groans, grinds, and killer drops heard in the works of 12th Planet and his ilk.

The webcam is very good as well. I was surprised how well it works in low light situations. You can see perfectly!
The only thing I dislike about the computer is the mouse. But you're gonna hear that from the majority of people with a dv6 or similar model. (I bought an external mouse to fix the issue). It's hard to press down when you are trying to drag something. But when you are just browsing the internet then it is fine because I just tap it. I like how it has a mouse lock. You tap twice the small circle in the upper left hand corner and it's locked. Do the same to unlock it.
Also, what I didn't like at first, but now I don't mind, is the keyboard. It has an extra set of keys on the left hand side making it kind of confusing to know where your fingers are. At first I was thinking about returning it but then I got used to it. The keys feel great, well at least to me.
In my opinion you should check out this laptop in store first to see if you like the mouse and keyboard and such.
Overall, this is a great machine (besides the mouse of course). If you think you can look past that flaw then this would be a great product for you at a great price!
BTW- I didn't buy from Amazon (It was $699 at the time). I'm not sure how great Amazon is with computer products. I bought it from office max for $549 on 2/4/11. But they're most likely sold out by now. If you want a cheaper price than amazon, which I recommend, go to HP.com or office depot. Which are both $599.
HP quality control is poor. They appear to have reached a corporate decision to send out defective machines and then repair them under warranty. This allows them to sell what would ultimately be "refurbs" as full price machines. They would have to repair them anyway, but this way they capture a higher price. I am not an HP basher. Of the half dozen laptops in my home, three are HP products. I am running four HP printers. HP until now had been my preferred brand.Read more ›
***** I received this as a birthday present and was technically my first laptop. This review is about the key things you should note about the computer. This is my first review. *****
The screen on the HP Pavilion dv6 can get VERY bright. It can also get very DARK if you are in a position where there is a lot of light coming in the room. I also admire that the laptop has the option of customizing the amount of energy the computer gives off. There are also brightness control keys on the F2 and F3 keys which are very helpful. The reason I gave the screen an 8 out of 10 was mainly because of the glossy screen, which can be very annoying sometimes. However, the glossy screen allows more vibrant colors to be showed on the 15.6" display.
The Intel Core i3 processor is a very nice processor to me but the exact opposite for others. People have said that i3 is sort of slower than other processors like Intel Core i5 or i7. If you're a basic web surfer and you use about only half of the computer's hard drive, like me, you might disagree with this. The i3 processor is perfect for me who, like many others, watch YouTube videos and communicate with different people over the Internet. When you have more demanding applications like the Adobe Creative Suite you should invest in an Intel Core i5 or i7 Extreme processor instead of i3. For my needs, i3 gets the job done perfectly, if annoying every once in a while.
A hard drive of 500GB and a RAM of 4GB is actually a lot of memory if you think about it. I have so far used about half of the computer's hard drive and it seems perfectly normal; it still acts like it's brand new.Read more ›

Off-Campus Dining:
I go to school at the University of Boston. Boston has a variety of dining options to fit all tastes and budgets. There are places where you can get pizza by the slice, chain restaurants, and local eateries. The food ranges from Chinese to Indian to Italian to local fare. It is a great place to go to school and to explore other cultures and their food.
Local Area:
The people aren't too nice, but I love the city. The activities are diverse, the cultural events are interesting. There are certain parts of the city to avoid, such as dark alley ways, back streets, and never walk anywhere by yourself at night. Common sense rules are great to follow. Shopping is fantastic and the locals are very accepting of the students because we create the culture.
Off-Campus Dining:
I love the food and I'm convinced that I am gaining so much weight from it. However, the walking should balance it out very soon.
Everyone is accepting because the whole campus is so diverse. We embrace it and often learn from each other.
Everything about it is amazing and fun. The teams are made up of amazing people and the school spirit is nice.
It makes me walk faster to and from classes so I don't freeze!
Greek Life:
It's a great way to make the school smaller and the community is very supportive.
They are great computers but they tend to be slow. Printing from a personal computer is difficult because it needs to be sent to the printer and then released. Then when the papers are picked up, an entire sheet is wasted because our names are printed on the front page for organizational purposes. Network reliability is fine, but there are so many options, it can be hard to know which one to choose. The wireless on smart phones could also be improved.
Party Scene:
It's cold and the fastest and safest way to get anywhere at night is with a cab or to take the T; both of which are extremely expensive. The parties aren't the greatest and Boston is centered mostly around the bar scene, which a majority of college students cannot enjoy due to the drinking age.
Drug Safety:
Alcohol is a big thing, but no more or less than what would be expected at a college
It is a city, the T runs right through the campus as well as buses.
Local Area:
Living in Boston is one of the best places to go to college because there are so many other schools around and so much to do!
Health & Safety:
Student Health is very accessible and friendly but they do not always offer the best help. Campus is very safe.
Party Scene:
The bars and clubs are strict here, so when you turn 21 it is awesome. Otherwise they are house parties in basements
Campus Housing:
For a city school, the dorms are spacious and nice, especially the upperclassmen dorms, Stuvi 1 and Stuvi 2
Because it is a city school, security is a bit tighter, which can be frustrating, but at the same time totally fine.
It is Boston, so it can be windy, and cold. However there are seasons and fall is beautiful.
Off-Campus Housing:
Because it is Boston there is a ton of places off campus, however, I don't know how helpful the school is.
Greek Life:
If you are involved with it, it is a wonderful opportunity that makes the community smaller, however if you are not in it, it will not take you over.
There are plenty of computers around in the libraries and schools if you need one.
Local Area:
so much to do all the time day/night
Drug Safety:
not much anyone can do about it. it happens
Off-Campus Dining:
being in the city offers a tremendous amounts of restaurants. you can go eat any kinds of food that range from all different prices. also many cafe and study areas off campus
Health & Safety:
health center is very efficient. generally feel safe everywhere; just never go anywhere alone at night
academics are great. very hard though

Sorry, there are no reviews.
While BU certainly has its downfalls, most of which are due to the sheer size of the University, there are plenty of opportunities to take full advantage of all that it has to offer. For the resourceful and motivated, a little effort will go a long way. The most important thing is to utilize your professors to your advantage. It is their job to be available to their students, and while some are certainly more attentive than others, students are not turned away by a professor when they have gone looking for opportunities or support.
Keeping busy, being well-organized, and choosing a course of study that truly stimulates your intellectual interests will all be really helpful in having a successful experience at BU. Many students dread graduation day, and therefore, leaving Boston is not something they look forward to. On the flip-side, countless others would argue the opposite perspective. Accept your environment and work with it, as well as against it. Do not stay inside for too long, and do not drink away your college years. Make school a priority, and hang out with your professors (they are the best resource you have). Boston is a huge city with a really large population of young people. If you are looking for a taste of city life, and think that you would be able to establish yourself at a big university in a high-paced atmosphere, it is definitely possible to find your niche here.

- Events
Against the backdrop of a young American West, we meet Miguel and Sarah, a newlywed couple madly in love with each other, but struggling to make a living cultivating their small patch of land in Arizona. A much bigger struggle awaits them, though. A powerful land-owner named Josiah, the preacher of their community, is after their property, the last bit of land he doesn't own. A very violent and flawed individual, Josiah starts to sabotage the young couple, and when that doesn't work, he kills Miguel and hides his body.
Sarah, assuming the worst, tries to keep the farm going. Meanwhile, Sheriff Jackson, a man of the law from the big city, arrives in the small town to investigate Josiah. Facing the town's rampant corruption, Jackson fires the local Sheriff and begins his investigation in earnest.
After being raped by Josiah, Sarah realizes that her husband is never coming back and that Josiah was his killer. So while Sheriff Jackson tries to bring justice to the town, Sarah decides to take justice in her own hands. Systematically eliminating Josiah's men one by one, Sarah comes to Josiah's ranch, saves an imprisoned and tortured Jackson from sure death, and proceeds to hunt down Josiah in one last, jaw-dropping showdown.

Sold Out $15.99
Rutherglen Estates The Reunion 2006
Rhone Red Blends from Victoria, Australia
Winemaker's Notes
Composition: Mourvedre 58%; Shiraz 24%; Grenache 18%
Critical Acclaim
International Wine Cellar - "Bright red. Intensely perfumed bouquet of spicy red berries, flowers and minerals. Tangy and sharply focused, offering juicy raspberry and cherry flavors, with fine-grained tannins providing shape and grip. A fresh, open-knit wine that is all about sweet fruit right now. Finishes with excellent cut and persistence."
Rutherglen Estates Winery
Undoubtedly this is the most exciting and ambitious vineyard project since Rutherglen was first planted back in the 1850's. Since 1997 Rutherglen Estates has planted almost 360 hectares of vineyard, spread across 5 separate hillside vineyards. The largest vineyard is "Melville's" with 113 hectares planted. The vineyards are planted predominantly to Rhone red varieties with Shiraz, Petit Sirah, Grenache and Mourvedre being the main focus. In addition there are substantial plantings of Marsanne and Viognier. The warm and dry growing conditions on these meticulously tended hillside vineyards are ideally suited for these varieties. Given the heritage of the region, there are almost 40 hectares devoted to Muscat and Tokay plantings. With the very talented young Winemaker Nicole Esdaile lured from WA, the second series of Rhone themed releases are about to be launched. View all Rutherglen Estates Wines
About VictoriaView a map of Victoria wineries
From stickies to Pinot Noir, Victoria is varied in its wines. The southernmost state of Australia, Victoria is third in wine production, after South Australia and New South Wales. The state is home to the cool-climate Yarra Valley, Yarra Valley, a producer of quality Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, as well the warmer regions of Rutherglen & Glenrowan. These two areas are hot and dusty and famous for their sweet, fortified stickies.
Notable FactsLots of coastline gives Victoria a cool climate, appropriate for growing grapes like Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Many new regions are discovering their growing potential – especially with these grapes. Inland gets warmer, and some of the best fortified wines are made here,as well as some good Shiraz. Victoria also makes the most Sparking Shiraz.
About AustraliaLike the United States, which is about the same size, Australia's winemaking regions are huddled into one or two pockets of the country. The state of South Australia, which produces about 60% of the country's wine, also has the most wineries and sub-regions, including McLaren Vale, Clare Valley, Coonawarra and Barossa Valley. New South Wales is home to the Hunter Valley, while the smaller, southern state of Victoria is best known for theYarra Valley. Head way west to the very large state of Western Australia and you'll find the tiny region of Margaret River at the southern tip.

Panasonic 56-inch 4K OLED TV pictures and eyes-onPocket-lint
Not one day ago we were bemoaning, via Twitter, the fact that OLED TVs were never going to happen. And then, literally hours later, Panasonic is telling us it has a new OLED TV which it hopes will be available "soon". Of course, that's not the same as it coming out this week, but there are some things about the Panasonic that give us a little more hope.
First, this is an R&D project with Sony. The two firms are working together to improve OLED and make the technology better and more affordable. But our understanding of the agreement is that it's not going to cover manufacture. So that both Sony and Panasonic have 56-inch 4K OLED TVs is really only a coincidence. Which means there's not going to be a Sony/Panasonic display company any time soon.
Panasonic says that what makes its OLED panel better than any others is the printing technology used to make the display. This method is said to dramatically reduce costs of production, increase yield rates and make the displays more reliable. It works by printing a layer, which is then sandwiched between a backing layer and a transparent cathode placed on the top. This apparently improves the light output, and ensures there are no reflections.
Panasonic claims that its printing process scales very well. So there's no reason you can't print both 24 and 56-inch screens using the same technology. It also says there is very little wastage of the organic material, which is another way to reduce costs.
OLED remains the goal of the whole display industry, it seems. We can sort of understand that, because OLED is basically all the good bits of LCD and plasma fused into one product. There's the brightness and colour of an LCD panel, with the black levels and contrast of a plasma. Samsung and LG have both promised OLED TVs for some time now, but a realistically priced screen has never emerged. As yet, even an unrealistically priced one is something of a pipe dream.
While we're hopeful that Panasonic has cracked the technology, we're still expecting that there won't be a working production model for a couple of years. Certainly, the demo running on the Panasonic CES stand is the usual unchallenging fare - largely static images that have little motion, and look impressive because of the contrast displayed.
Only time will tell how quickly Panasonic can get this TV on sale, but it's fair to say we're more excited by this than by any other OLED announcement of the past few years.

This is my experience....draw from it what you need to be informed. The wife interviewed us and said she would like to represent Kayla. I asked if she would be in better demand because she is biracial and the answer was yes. We paid for all the photos and they did come out really beautiful. We also paid additional money to be represented by the agency. I am told each and everytime I bring my daughter anywhere that she is beautiful (thank goodness she does not look like Mom) of course I am proud that Kayla has a great heart, a wonderful spirit and a jest for life...needless to say in the entire year she was represented she received only one call and then a return call after that she would not be needed for the casting call. I am more than disappointed in the company. Another issue is that they say they are working hard to get jobs but you have no idea what is being done on your behalf. Another very weird situation with the company is after the year was over I received a call the agency called but did not use my child's name but rather a different model-I know mistakes happen...but it was very strange.

I would recommend for those who believe they have the potential of becoming a model not to go to Dynasty models. This agency is a rip off, a bunch of hungry money nazi's. I have been with them for three years and it was a total waste of time. Joe Freeman is a corn man and so is his wife Joe Free man. Modeling agenices aren't supposed to ask for money up front at least the real one's aren't. Ask anyone who has model and excelled at this. They all have the same thing in common, they are affiliated with a NY agency. You would be a fool to go with Dynasty a big fool. For anyone trying to further there career and believe they have potential try click boston. They are an NY agency with a branch in Boston. They actually test shoot and if your pictures are good enough you are shipped off to New york. BOOM there you have no lie. I speak from experience. Dynasty is just not good enough.
Posted: 10/30/2010Provided by Citysearch -
Not impressed. I think they're a scam. Why? Because when I and my 5-year-old daughter recently met the owner Joe for a ""private interview"", within 3 minutes he handed me a price list that added up to a minimum of $1,000 for head shots, comp cards, etc. When I said I could get all that done on my own because I know people in the business (which is true), he immediately that comp cards MUST BE purchased through Dynasty which costs $495 for 150 cards. BTW. You can get comp cards printed on your own for about $100 for 500 cards. Here's the kicker. The ""private interview"" was supposed to be for Joe to meet my daughter to determine if she had potential. The problem is he barely acknowledged her presence during the interview. No surprise there. He was too busy reviewing his price list with me. I'll tell you this, he must be a good salesman. While I was there, the waiting room was packed with kids and their parents having photo shoots done. Keep in mind, according to Dynasty's price list, they get anywhere from $275 to $525 for each shoot. Throw in the optional add ons of make-up artist, hairstylist and clothing stylist and you're talking an additional $250 to $500. And don't forget about the $495 you MUST pay Dynasty for their comp cards. I asked a few of the parents that were there if they're kids had gotten any jobs through Dynasty. None had.
Posted: 3/24/2010Provided by Citysearch -
This is an agency that I enjoy working with, they have cute kids and some great print models. Sometimes they send out a few more models than I would like to see come in, but they always send kids and they have strong cards. I just need those cards, I cannot depend on computer color and I need to compare. Joe seems like a nice guy and is great about calling back

Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Sources: © Ecceback - Fotolia.com
Actavis will snap up Forest Laboratories for $25 billion, the companies said today, in a blockbuster deal that marries two growing specialty pharma portfolios, caps a two-year buying spree for the purchaser—and delivers a victory for Forest Labs' second-largest shareholder, activist Carl Icahn, after four years of sparring with the company to either acquire or be acquired.
The combined company will launch with $15 billion in annual sales anticipated for 2015. Of that total, $2 billion will come from its franchise of central nervous system drugs, with another $1 billion each from its gastroenterology and women's health treatments, roughly $500 million in cardiovascular medicines, and close to $500 million in sales from its urology and dermatology/established brand franchises.
To those established franchises, Actavis-Forest Labs says it will also add emerging and sustainable drug portfolios in other therapeutic categories—including infectious disease, respiratory, cystic fibrosis, and dermatology. Not to mention Actavis' traditional strength in generic drugs, where it is the second-largest company in that category by market value.
On a pro forma combined basis for full-year 2014, the combined company will have an approximately $2 billion CNS franchise; gastroenterology and women's health franchises valued at approximately $1 billion each; a cardiovascular franchise that generates approximately $500 million; and urology and dermatology/established brand franchises approaching $500 million a year in sales each.
"With this strategic combination, we create an innovative new model in specialty pharmaceuticals leadership, with size and scale, a balanced offering of strong brands and generics, a focus on strategic, lower-risk drug development, and—most important—the ability to drive sustainable organic growth," said Paul Bisaro, chairman and CEO of Actavis. "Bolstered by one of the deepest and most diversified product portfolios in the industry with an exceptionally strong pipeline, this transaction creates a powerful engine for generating long-term, double-digit revenue and earnings growth."
Bisaro will lead the combined company, saying that Forest Labs CEO and president Brent Saunders had agreed to work with him in building the combined company, whose board Saunders will join, along with three members of Forest Labs' board, following the close of the deal. The boards of both companies have approved the acquisition deal, which is subject to shareholder approval by both companies as well as regulatory approvals that include a Hart-Scott-Rodino review in the United States.
Saunders called Forest "a great fit" with Actavis given his company's legacy in branded specialty and primary care pharmaceuticals, its commercial and drug development teams, and its history of successful partnerships.
"The acquisition builds on our blockbuster line call strategy in CNS and GI and dramatically extends our reach beyond the U.S. market," Saunders said. "By joining forces with Actavis, we become more relevant to key physicians and customers through blockbuster franchises in CNS, women's health, GI, and urology, as well as Actavis' global generics business."
By acquiring Forest Labs, Actavis caps a multiyear buying spree that included its acquisition and renaming of U.S.-based Watson Pharmaceuticals for €4.25 billion ($7.1 billion) in 2012. Last year, the renamed Actavis added to its specialty pharma operations by snapping up Irish-based Warner Chilcott for about $8.5 billion in a stock-for-stock deal completed October 1.
At $89.48 per share of Forest Labs stock—$26.04 cash plus 0.3306 Actavis shares—Actavis is paying a 25% per-share premium above Forest's stock price, and about 31% above Forest's 10-day volume-weighted average stock price, as of the close of trading on February 14, 2014.
Among the biggest winners in the deal is Icahn, whose Icahn Group owns 11.5% of Forest Labs shares. Icahn began snapping up Forest Labs shares in 2009, when they traded at about $29 a share and the company was looking to rebound from patent-cliff losses of drugs about to lose protection—namely the antidepressant Lexapro and the Alzheimer's drug Namenda. Since then, according to Icahn, Forest Labs shareholders enjoyed a near tripling (193% or nearly $17 billion) of aggregate gain in market value.
The dispute over Forest Labs' future led to proxy battles in 2011 and 2012, the latter ending when an Icahn director was among four named to the board. A third proxy battle was averted last year via a settlement that called for the election to the Forest Labs board of an Icahn representative, Vincent Intrieri, in return for Icahn voting for the full slate of directors endorsed by the company.
The new board ultimately ended the annual proxy battles with Icahn by appointing Saunders, the former Bausch & Lomb CEO, as chief executive of Forest Labs in September 2013. Earlier that year, Saunders steered B+L toward acquisition by Valeant Pharmaceuticals for $8.7 billion, only to be relegated to an advisory role for that combined company once their deal was done.
In a statement today, Icahn credited Saunders for the change in company attitude toward pursuing Forest Labs' acquisition.
Saunders has shown his own knack for quick dealmaking, having steered Forest Labs to acquire Aptalis—whose specialty drugs include cystic fibrosis and GI treatments—for $2.9 billion from TPG in a deal completed last month. At the time, Saunders told the Financial Times he had a "long list" of potential deals intended to boost his company's portfolio.
"To quote Shakespeare, 'All's well that ends well,' and we applaud Brent Saunders, who, in less than six months at the helm, has helped to bring about in my opinion one of the best pharma mergers in the last decade," Icahn stated. "I as one of the largest shareholders of Forest can only say thank you—and thank you as well to the entire board and management team for delivering this terrific result."

MDMA (commonly known as the empathogen "ecstasy") is classified as a Schedule 1 drug, which is reserved for compounds with no accepted medical use and a high abuse potential. Two researchers from Stanford, however, call for a rigorous scientific exploration of MDMA's effects to identify precisely how the drug works, the data from which could be used to develop therapeutic compounds.Do you agree that ecstasy should be studied for its potential therapeutic benefits?
