We’ll be in touch to set-up a time to show you the room and blow through the simple paperwork faster than you can say: “Party time, excellent!” We’ll take care of your reservation deposit, and will also require a refundable security and cleaning deposit for private parties just in case you decide to go all rockstar on us and break everything.
Take this room and flip it. You'll decide how you want to layout and decorate Mixin Mingle for your event. We’ll talk you through setup and teardown plans, and give you a helpful list of things to bring. (Still manage to forget something? Don’t worry! We’ve got an emergency supply on site to cover those easy mind-slips, like scissors.)
If you’re planning a public event, let the buzz-building begin. We’ll feature you on our website, to our fans on e-mail and social media channels, and you can even put a flyer in our front window. With this kind of marketing support? You’ll be sharing mini kobe beef burgers with the A-listers in no time.
Email and phone support to handle those questions that pop up. We’ve done this 100,000x before (rough estimate), so we’ve got a take-charge attitude and hands-on approach that’ll help keep your event on track to be a smashing success. With us, there’s no wham-bam-rent-me-ma’am approach. If you’ve got questions leading up to your big shindig (like how to play a slideshow on the TV), we’re here to help.
Time for the main event! Ta-da! Please stand by for guest gushing.Is there a Numerical Miracle of the Qur'an?
In recent years some claims of numerical features of the Qur'an have been proposed as a proof for the divine origin of the book.
This page will collect material discussing those claims.
A Numeric Miracle of the Number 19?
Are there Mathematical Miracles in the Qur'an or the Bible?Is there an off-screen romance happening between Elizabeth Olsen and Tom Hiddleston? During an interview with Refinery 29, the 26-year-old actress answered the question, denying talk that she's dating her I Saw the Light co-star.
Elizabeth, who has been single since splitting with her fiancé Boyd Holbrook in January, was asked directly if she was dating Tom, to which she replied: "No. I mean people can think what they want to think."
She also shared: "I mean, we definitely are friends and have known each other for about four years. We happened to be at a restaurant, at the wrong time, having dinner. We all go out to dinner."
Elizabeth admits that this isn't the first time she has been linked to a Hollywood actor, quipping: "Well, apparently, I'm dating Chris Evans, and apparently, I've dated Jeremy Renner… I don't react to it."
She and Tom sparked relationship rumors in July after they were spotted on several outings, including enjoying a romantic dinner. On Friday, the Marvel stars appeared together – but it was for their film's premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival.
I Saw the Light is scheduled for release in November, and revolves around country music singer Hank Williams' rise to fame and sudden death at the age of 29. In the film, Elizabeth plays Hank's first wife Audrey.
The actress explained what drew her to the character, and described the couple's complex love-hate relationship. "The first thing that drew me to the relationship was how passionately they hated each other and how passionately they loved each other. I think the way [writer/director] Marc [Abraham] wrote the dynamic of the marriage and their dysfunctional relationship was very honest," she explained.
She added: "It wasn’t judgmental. That was something I found very interesting. I really love characters that people assume you’re supposed to not like and then defending them."If you need to print a dinner register for your lunchtime staff or kitchen, it is quick and easy in Arbor!

Cellular resilience describes the ability of a cell to cope with environmental changes such as toxicant exposure. If cellular metabolism does not collapse directly after the hit or end in programmed cell death, the ensuing stress responses promote a new homeostasis under stress. The processes of reverting “back to normal” and reversal of apoptosis (“anastasis”) have been studied little at the cellular level. Cell types show astonishingly similar vulnerability to most toxicants, except for those that require a very specific target, metabolism or mechanism present only in specific cell types. The majority of chemicals triggers “general cytotoxicity” in any cell at similar concentrations. We hypothesize that cells differ less in their vulnerability to a given toxicant than in their resilience (coping with the “hit”). In many cases, cells do not return to the naïve state after a toxic insult. The phenomena of “pre-conditioning”, “tolerance” and “hormesis” describe this for low-dose exposures to toxicants that render the cell more resistant to subsequent hits. The defense and resilience programs include epigenetic changes that leave a “memory/scar” – an alteration as a consequence of the stress the cell has experienced. These memories might have long-term consequences, both positive (resistance) and negative, that contribute to chronic and delayed manifestations of hazard and, ultimately, disease. This article calls for more systematic analyses of how cells cope with toxic perturbations in the long-term after stressor withdrawal. A technical prerequisite for these are stable (organotypic) cultures and a characterization of stress response molecular networks.

Many companies are motivated to take climate action in their value chains, yet current limitations in the GHG Protocol Corporate Scope 3 Standard mean that companies are not fully recognized for these efforts. Gold Standard, the Science Based Targets partners, Danone, Mars and Livelihoods Fund are developing a sector-neutral accounting and reporting framework that provides guidance on how companies can invest in supply chain interventions at scale and incorporate these into reporting towards their performance targets. These include activities inside the Scope 3 boundary associated with the production of purchased goods and services, such as energy efficiency measures and biological sequestration (eg, through forests or soil carbon).
This workshop, held during Gold Standard’s conference “Grow to Zero,” will include a brief presentation of the Framework, an interactive discussion of the proposed approach, and an explanation of next steps, including an invitation to participate in Phase 2 working group to test the application of the Framework in various sectors.import torch
