  <description>The Ellen Hermanson Foundation (Ellen's Run) was established in 1997 to honor the memory of Ellen Hermanson and carry on the important work to which she devoted so much of her time and energy.  This year's benefit on August 15th is  in celebration of the new Ellen Hermanson Breast Center at Southampton Hospital. An activist and an advocate, Ellen channeled her journalistic talents to become a forceful voice for breast cancer patients and their families. She educated her readers about the importance of early detection, the challenges of living with breast cancer, the very real, but little-discussed or understood, issue of pain management, and the debilitating effects of breast cancer on the entire family.
&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
The Ellen Hermanson Foundation is continuing Ellen's work by focusing on three specific areas:&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
1) Educational outreach about the importance of mammography and early detection to medically under served communities of women;
&lt;BR&gt;
2) Psychosocial support services that address the broad range of issues facing breast cancer patients, survivors, spouses, families,&lt;BR&gt;and friends; and&lt;BR&gt;
3) Research on improving understanding of pain management and 
methods for treating pain.
&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
The Ellen Hermanson Foundation is unique in its commitment to helping breast cancer patients and their families cope with the physical and emotional vicissitudes of breast cancer. The Ellen Hermanson Foundation was incorporated under the not-for-profit laws of the State of New York and is exempt from taxation under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Donations to The Ellen Hermanson Foundation are tax deductible to the extent provided by law.

&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Designing with herself and her friends Kate Moss, Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow in mind, rock royal Stella McCartney is famous for her sharp tailoring, irreverence and sexy femininity. A strict vegetarian, her designs are fur and leather free. After working as the chief designer at Chloe, McCartney started her signature line in 2001 under the Gucci group, quickly adding accessories and fragrance. She often mixes tough and sweet elements, so look out for her ultra floaty florals and tailored trenches.
&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
A lot of amazing work for such a young woman, and she has done well to earn the numerous awards bestowed upon her, like VH1/Vogue Fashion and Music 2000 Designer of the Year award, the Woman of Courage Award for work against cancer at the prestigious Unforgettable Evening event in 2003, the Glamour Award for Designer of the Year in 2004, and the Organic Style Woman of the Year Award.

      <name>&lt;i&gt;Lucky Spot in Daisy Field&lt;/i&gt; by Linda McCartney</name>
      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>&lt;i&gt;Lucky Spot in Daisy Field&lt;/i&gt;, Sussez 1985
&lt;br&gt;
16&quot; x 12&quot; framed print by Linda McCartney
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Linda McCartney, who died of breast cancer at age 56, is remembered as more than the wife of a former Beatle - she was a successful photographer, musician and animal rights activist who built a multi-million dollar vegetarian food business.  Raised in Scarsdale, New York, she was a Fine Arts major at the University of Arizona. It was while living in Arizona that her passion for photographs began. But it was not until she returned to New York that this self-taught photographer began her career - while working for &lt;i&gt;Town and Country&lt;/i&gt; magazine in the early sixties.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Seizing an opportunity to photograph the Rolling Stones on a yacht on the Hudson River, Linda discovered that her work was immediately in demand.  Coupling photography with her love of rock and rhythm &amp; blues, Linda specialized in capturing the character of the musicians. She worked with Jimi Hendrix, the Doors, the Who, Simon and Garfunkel, B. B. King, Bob Dylan, Otis Redding and the Beatles - subsequently meeting her husband of 29 years, Paul.  Linda was a Rolling Stone photographer, and her work with rock stars has appeared in magazines around the world. Exhibitions of her photography have also appeared in galleries worldwide.</description>

      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>&lt;a href=&quot;http://amandapearl.com&quot;target=_&quot;blank&gt;Amanda Pearl's&lt;/a&gt; roll clutch is handmade by artisans in Florence, using Darjeerling fuchsia duchesse satin on a gold plated brass frame.

&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Measures 8.75&quot; x 2.75&quot; x 2.75&quot;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Armed with a collection of vintage fabrics and beads gathered from her travels around the world, Amanda Pearl Brotman began constructing fait a la main evening bags out of her Greenwich Village apartment. The elegant, yet refreshingly quirky designs quickly turned into a collection inspired by antique jewelry, textiles, modern art, vintage travel posters and fashion and culture of the Fifties and Sixties, officially launching in February of 2008.

Innovative design, exceptional quality, and a deep reverence for tradition are the foundation for accessories designer, Katherinw Kwei's design philosophy.  As a young girl, Kwei remembers spending afternoons with her grandmother folding wonton dumplings, knotting cords for necklaces filled with jade and precious stonzes, or looking over the intricate embroidery patterns of old quilts and robes.  Kwei's grandmother who was a clothier &quot;artiste&quot; for silver screen legends Katherine Hepburn and Anthony Quinn, as well as a master at Chinese knotting -- instilled in Kwei a deep reverence for her cultural roots and passion for working with her hands.</description>

&lt;br&gt;
&lt;i&gt;David at Haddon Hall&lt;/i&gt;, March 1972
&lt;br&gt;
Black &amp; White Silver Gelatin Archival Quality Signed Limited Edition Photo Print
&lt;br&gt;
#11 of 90 hand-signed by Mick Rock
&lt;br&gt;
16&quot; x 20&quot;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Mick Rock's limited edition photos typically fetch nearly $5,000 and will only appreciate in value with time!
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Often referred to as The Man Who Shot the Seventies, legendary rock and roll photographer Mick Rock first met David Bowie in early 1972. Most of the memorable images of David Bowie as Ziggy Stardust were shot by Mick Rock in his capacity as the official Bowie photographer.  
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Rock was instrumental in creating many other key rock 'n roll images such as album covers for Syd Barrett's &quot;The Madcap Laughs&quot;, Lou Reed's &quot;Transformer&quot; and &quot;Coney Island Baby&quot;, &quot;Iggy and the Stooges&quot;, &quot;Raw Power&quot;, Queen's &quot;Queen II (recreated for their classic music video &quot;Bohemian Rhapsody&quot;) and &quot;Sheer Heart Attack&quot;, the Ramones &quot;End of the Century&quot; and Joan Jett's &quot;I Love Rock 'N Roll&quot;.  He was the chief photographer on the films &quot;The Rocky Horror Picture Show&quot; and &quot;Hedwig and the Angry Inch&quot;.  He also produced and directed the seminal music videos for Bowie to be found on Bowie's recent &quot;Sound and Vision&quot; DVD collection: &quot;John, I'm Only Dancing&quot;, &quot;Jean Genie&quot;, &quot;Space Oddity&quot;, and &quot;Life On Mars&quot;.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
In recent years he has published a series of books, many based on his classic images: &lt;u&gt;A Photographic Record 1969-1980&lt;/u&gt; (Century 22 Books 1995), &lt;u&gt;Blood &amp; Glitter - Glam: An Eyewitness Account&lt;/u&gt; (VisionOn Books 2001), &lt;u&gt;Psychedelic Renegades / Syd Barrett&lt;/u&gt; (Genesis Publications 2002), &lt;u&gt;Moonage Daydream / Ziggy Stardust (with David Bowie)&lt;/u&gt; (Genesis Publications), &lt;u&gt;Rock 'n Roll Eye&lt;/u&gt;(Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography 2003), &lt;u&gt;Killer Queen (with Brian May and Roger Taylor)&lt;/u&gt; (Genesis Publications 2003), &lt;u&gt;Picture This - Debbie Harry &amp; Blondie (foreword by Debbie Harry)&lt;/u&gt; (Sanctuary Books 2004), and &lt;u&gt;Raw Power - Iggy &amp; The Stooges(foreword by Iggy Pop)&lt;/u&gt; (Omnibus Books 2005).
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Mick's recent massive (186 prints) retrospective exhibition at the Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography was dubbed &quot;one of the finest collections of pop art to ever reach these shores&quot; in the local press. Mick Rock's enthusiasm for his art has remained undimmed and he has continues to capture the musical spirit of succeeding eras through his work with musicians of the 1980's and 1990's and the new millennium.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
His recent subjects include Michael Stipe of REM, Johnny Marr, Supergrass, Kate Moss, Perry Farrell, The Music, Third Eye Blind, VHS or Beta, Los Lonely Boys, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Chemical Brothers, The Rapture, The Killers, Razorlight, The Libertines, Kasabian, Snow Patrol, The Raveonettes, Fat Joe and old friends Bowie, Lou Reed and Debbie Harry.

Mick Rock's limited edition photos typically fetch nearly $5,000 and will only appreciate in value with time! 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Often referred to as The Man Who Shot the Seventies, legendary rock and roll photographer Mick Rock first met David Bowie in early 1972. Most of the memorable images of David Bowie as Ziggy Stardust were shot by Mick Rock in his capacity as the official Bowie photographer.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Rock was instrumental in creating many other key rock 'n roll images such as album covers for Syd Barrett's &quot;The Madcap Laughs&quot;, Lou Reed's &quot;Transformer&quot; and &quot;Coney Island Baby&quot;, &quot;Iggy and the Stooges&quot;, &quot;Raw Power&quot;, Queen's &quot;Queen II (recreated for their classic music video &quot;Bohemian Rhapsody&quot;) and &quot;Sheer Heart Attack&quot;, the Ramones &quot;End of the Century&quot; and Joan Jett's &quot;I Love Rock 'N Roll&quot;.  He was the chief photographer on the films &quot;The Rocky Horror Picture Show&quot; and &quot;Hedwig and the Angry Inch&quot;.  He also produced and directed the seminal music videos for Bowie to be found on Bowie's recent &quot;Sound and Vision&quot; DVD collection: &quot;John, I'm Only Dancing&quot;, &quot;Jean Genie&quot;, &quot;Space Oddity&quot;, and &quot;Life On Mars&quot;.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
In recent years he has published a series of books, many based on his classic images: &lt;u&gt;A Photographic Record 1969-1980&lt;/u&gt; (Century 22 Books 1995), &lt;u&gt;Blood &amp; Glitter - Glam: An Eyewitness Account&lt;/u&gt; (VisionOn Books 2001), &lt;u&gt;Psychedelic Renegades / Syd Barrett&lt;/u&gt; (Genesis Publications 2002), &lt;u&gt;Moonage Daydream / Ziggy Stardust (with David Bowie)&lt;/u&gt; (Genesis Publications), &lt;u&gt;Rock 'n Roll Eye&lt;/u&gt;(Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography 2003), &lt;u&gt;Killer Queen (with Brian May and Roger Taylor)&lt;/u&gt; (Genesis Publications 2003), &lt;u&gt;Picture This - Debbie Harry &amp; Blondie (foreword by Debbie Harry)&lt;/u&gt; (Sanctuary Books 2004), and &lt;u&gt;Raw Power - Iggy &amp; The Stooges(foreword by Iggy Pop)&lt;/u&gt; (Omnibus Books 2005).
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Mick's recent massive (186 prints) retrospective exhibition at the Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography was dubbed &quot;one of the finest collections of pop art to ever reach these shores&quot; in the local press. Mick Rock's enthusiasm for his art has remained undimmed and he has continues to capture the musical spirit of succeeding eras through his work with musicians of the 1980's and 1990's and the new millennium.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
His recent subjects include Michael Stipe of REM, Johnny Marr, Supergrass, Kate Moss, Perry Farrell, The Music, Third Eye Blind, VHS or Beta, Los Lonely Boys, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Chemical Brothers, The Rapture, The Killers, Razorlight, The Libertines, Kasabian, Snow Patrol, The Raveonettes, Fat Joe and old friends Bowie, Lou Reed and Debbie Harry.</description>

      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>&lt;b&gt;Steven Klein&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;i&gt;Prince&lt;/i&gt;, 2004
&lt;br&gt;
33&quot; x 40&quot;
&lt;br&gt;
Edition 2/5, 2APs
&lt;br&gt;
Unframed
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
For some time now photography has existed in an expanded field that includes fashion, advertising, music, cinema and virtually every other aspect of the culture we live and breath every day. And while there are those who denounce this as a contamination of its ability to report accurately on the world we live in, there are others for whom this very impurity is a saving aesthetic grace. Steven Klein might be one such photographer and X-STaTIC Pro=CeSS, his collaboration with Madonna, is just such a cross-fertilization of talent, medium and genre. 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Where artists such as Jeff Wall or Gregory Crewdson have recruited the means of film to create images that condense its technical and narrative aspiration into a single pictorial moment, Klein uses those same means to expand the photographic means outwards, towards the of condition of the moving image. To this end many of the still images of X-STaTIC Pro=CeSS have been animated with CGI, just as the moving images are often edited in such a way that they appear to be composed of sequenced stills. In doing so he has created a strange hybrid that is neither one nor the other yet draws on both. Images fibrillate on the edge of movement or are cut in such a way as to suggest rituals of preparation so endlessly repeated that their lyric beauty has itself become the main event. Trapped within these cycles of development, photograph and subject are captured on the verge of perpetual metamorphosis existing as they do in a state that is neither fully fledged nor fully formed. By approaching his subject in this way Klein refuses to indulge in photography as the fetishized outcome of an un-witnessed performance or event. Instead, he creates work that embodies the very processes from which such conclusions are normally drawn. 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Playing with appearances he mixes mediums and metaphors to literally stitch his tableaus together from the stuff of reality and dreams: Coyotes encircle the queen of pop with feral menace and failed Beuysian communication; the wedding dress burning in eternal flame brings ceremonial immolation to the passage of purity; organs respond to the contortions of their neighbors pulsing messages across the stillness. Each is locked in its own irreconcilable reality, brought in as nothing more than an element in the overall composition. Each is reconstituted within a vision that post-produces the idea into a state of exhaustive difficulty. The result is a strange and fractured landscape, a form of collaboration that looks not to the glare of publicity but to the twilight of the idols. There it inhabits a darkened space where performance and art merge to create an iconography of their own.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Klein probes beneath the celebrity skin to create images for which manifest content and latent meaning are held in perpetual conflict. And for all the seductions of surface, his is a subcutaneous view that literally digs beneath the surface to portray the muscular and emotional tension underneath - exposing, if you want, the beast within. Tapping into the deeper currents of libidinal energy that flow through the pop persona he worries the stasis of the photograph into a state of convulsive and animated beauty. Here the regalia of the queen is the myth of her own reign. To look at her looking at us is to see something that is both inside and outside; a moving image that inhales contradiction and exhales uncertainty.

Trapped within these cycles of development, photograph and subject are captured on the verge of perpetual metamorphosis existing as they do in a state that is neither fully fledged nor fully formed. By approaching his subject in this way Klein refuses to indulge in photography as the fetishized outcome of an un-witnessed performance or event. Instead, he creates work that embodies the very processes from which such conclusions are normally drawn. 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Playing with appearances he mixes mediums and metaphors to literally stitch his tableaus together from the stuff of reality and dreams: Coyotes encircle the queen of pop with feral menace and failed Beuysian communication; the wedding dress burning in eternal flame brings ceremonial immolation to the passage of purity; organs respond to the contortions of their neighbors pulsing messages across the stillness. Each is locked in its own irreconcilable reality, brought in as nothing more than an element in the overall composition. Each is reconstituted within a vision that post-produces the idea into a state of exhaustive difficulty. The result is a strange and fractured landscape, a form of collaboration that looks not to the glare of publicity but to the twilight of the idols. There it inhabits a darkened space where performance and art merge to create an iconography of their own.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Klein probes beneath the celebrity skin to create images for which manifest content and latent meaning are held in perpetual conflict. And for all the seductions of surface, his is a subcutaneous view that literally digs beneath the surface to portray the muscular and emotional tension underneath - exposing, if you want, the beast within. Tapping into the deeper currents of libidinal energy that flow through the pop persona he worries the stasis of the photograph into a state of convulsive and animated beauty. Here the regalia of the queen is the myth of her own reign. To look at her looking at us is to see something that is both inside and outside; a moving image that inhales contradiction and exhales uncertainty.

&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
For some time now photography has existed in an expanded field that includes fashion, advertising, music, cinema and virtually every other aspect of the culture we live and breath every day. And while there are those who denounce this as a contamination of its ability to report accurately on the world we live in, there are others for whom this very impurity is a saving aesthetic grace. Steven Klein might be one such photographer and X-STaTIC Pro=CeSS, his collaboration with Madonna, is just such a cross-fertilization of talent, medium and genre. 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Where artists such as Jeff Wall or Gregory Crewdson have recruited the means of film to create images that condense its technical and narrative aspiration into a single pictorial moment, Klein uses those same means to expand the photographic means outwards, towards the of condition of the moving image. To this end many of the still images of X-STaTIC Pro=CeSS have been animated with CGI, just as the moving images are often edited in such a way that they appear to be composed of sequenced stills. In doing so he has created a strange hybrid that is neither one nor the other yet draws on both. Images fibrillate on the edge of movement or are cut in such a way as to suggest rituals of preparation so endlessly repeated that their lyric beauty has itself become the main event. Trapped within these cycles of development, photograph and subject are captured on the verge of perpetual metamorphosis existing as they do in a state that is neither fully fledged nor fully formed. By approaching his subject in this way Klein refuses to indulge in photography as the fetishized outcome of an un-witnessed performance or event. Instead, he creates work that embodies the very processes from which such conclusions are normally drawn.

      <name>&lt;i&gt;BRIDGE&lt;/i&gt; by Roberto Dutesco</name>
      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>&lt;b&gt;Roberto Dutesco&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;i&gt;BRIDGE&lt;/i&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Toned Metallic Chromogenic Print, Face Mounted on Plexi, with Aluminum Backing and Museum Hanging Mechanism.
&lt;br&gt;
Signed on the Verso by the Artist. From an Edition of 30.
&lt;br&gt;
32&quot; x 48&quot;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Roberto Dutesco, a New York based photographer working in art, fashion, and film, has received much acclaim for his photoworks featuring the Sable horses. Roberto's fashion photography has been published regularly in magazines such as &lt;i&gt;Details, GQ, Interview, Vanity Fair&lt;/i&gt;, and &lt;i&gt;Vogue&lt;/i&gt;. Arts reviewer and editor Sarah Valdez wrote, &quot;For decades, editors have relied on his ability to capture the most striking aspects of a model, a piece of fabric, or environment. His reliably sleek, clean, dramatic esthetic has consistently had the edge to sustain a career in the oft-cutthroat world of fashion&quot;.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Born in Bucharest, Romania, Roberto studied painting, drawing and sculpture at the National School of Arts in Bucharest. His family moved to Canada in 1981, and he studied for a degree at the Dawson Institute of Photography in Montreal. He opened his first studio in 1987, and two years later he shot his first cover for &lt;i&gt;Elle&lt;/i&gt; magazine, and soon became one of Canada's most accomplished fashion photographers.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
After moving to New York in 1995, Roberto, compelled by his enthusiasm for travel and discovery, visited over fifty countries, seeking to capture with photography the beauty and emotional essence of each location. These experiences left him with a passion for &quot;One World&quot;, the place where we live, the place we share. For Roberto &quot;home&quot; has a plural sense. He explains that &quot;home is a place where even after you have left, you still exist, it is a place where you look forward to return, it is a place that helps you become&quot;. With memories and family connections  Bucharest, Montreal, New York City, and Sao Paulo are his homes. But so are many other places that have touched him and shaped his perspective. Roberto thinks of Sable Island as home.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
While travelling in the mid-1990s, Roberto began developing three major art projects: &lt;i&gt;The American SandScape, Rocks &amp; Things&lt;/i&gt;, and &lt;i&gt;The Wild Horses of Sable Island&lt;/i&gt;.  His first visit to Sable Island was in summer 1994, followed by another in 1997.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The photographic studies he made during these early visits to Sable Island have been exhibited in some impressive venues. In 2002 (commencing &quot;the Year of the Horse&quot;), Roberto was invited to display &lt;i&gt;The Horses of Sable Island&lt;/i&gt; at the Sony Style windows in both New York City and Chicago, and in 2003, &lt;i&gt;A World Without Borders: The Wild Horses of Sable Island&lt;/i&gt; was presented in a show hosted by the French Cultural Association at the United Nations. Roberto's main exhibit&#8212;&lt;i&gt;The Wild Horses of Sable Island&lt;/i&gt;&#8212;is on permanent view at the Dutesco Gallery in Soho.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;i&gt;Chasing Wild Horses&lt;/i&gt; premiered on Bravo! April 6, 2008. During autumn 2008, &lt;i&gt;Chasing Wild Horses&lt;/i&gt; will be screened at the Atlantic Film Festival in Halifax (September 20), the New York Independent Film and Video Festival (September 25), and the Planet in Focus Film Fest in Toronto (late October). </description>

      <name>&lt;i&gt;Bonfire Baskets&lt;/i&gt; by Dale Chihuly</name>

      <description>&lt;b&gt;Dale Chihuly&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;i&gt;Bonfire Baskets&lt;/i&gt;, 2003
&lt;br&gt;
Blown Glass
&lt;br&gt;
10&quot; x 10&quot; x 10&quot;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Writing of aged Indian baskets, Henry Geldzahler, then a curator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, explained, &quot;When Chihuly saw these misshapen fiber baskets, he saw the essence of glass.&quot;  Since their first appearance in a 1977 exhibition at the Seattle Art Museum, Dale Chihuly's &lt;i&gt;Baskets&lt;/i&gt; have evolved into an organic series that embraces the natural qualities of molten glass. &quot;This meant letting glass find its own form,&quot; says Chihuly.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;i&gt;Bonfire Baskets&lt;/i&gt;, a 2003 Portland Press Studio Edition, explores the inherent delicacy of glass. A fine black glass thread trails over the surfaces of two transparent red elements, one piece nesting within the other. The transparency allows simultaneous visual access to the three-dimensional forms and their linear surface features. This elegant handblown work is signed and measures approximately ten inches across.  With graceful harmony and languid curves, &lt;i&gt;Bonfire Baskets&lt;/i&gt; exemplifies refinement.

      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>The Ultimate &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.toryburch.com&quot;target=_&quot;blank&gt;Tory Burch&lt;/a&gt; Package includes:&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A Private shopping party at Tory Burch's East Hampton boutique complete with cocktails for 20 people.
&lt;li&gt;Tory Burch canvas tote with Navy patent trim
&lt;li&gt;Tory Burch Raid towel in Hibiscus Pink
&lt;li&gt;Tory Burch signature candle in Orange and Navy
&lt;/ul&gt;
You and twenty of your closest friends can spend an evening of private shopping and enjoy cocktails at Tory Burch's fabulous boutique in East Hampton! Tory Burch will provide a server and cocktails, an e-vite for you to send out to your friends, and the chance to offer your friends a shopping discount or a percentage of the event's proceeds to a charity of your choice.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Perceiving a void in the market for a sophisticated American aesthetic at an accessible price point, Tory Burch wanted to create stylish yet wearable clothing and accessories for women of all ages. In designing Tory Burch, Ms. Burch draws inspiration from her favorite era - the 1960's and 1970's. She relies on such style influences as art, photographs, films, her mother and father's vintage wardrobes and the work of interior designer David Hicks. These influences find their way into Burch's design, which are famous and influental style in the world of fashion.</description>

      <description>The &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.turbochef.com/residential/products2/overview.aspx&quot;target=_&quot;blank&gt;TurboChef 30&quot; Single Wall Speedcook Oven&lt;/a&gt; is a high performance gourmet oven designed specifically for today's home chef. Unique in both design and technology, the oven's signature style serves as a centerpiece in today's high-end kitchen.  The oven is truly a piece of art! Designed by FROG (the people who designed the iPod) there is nothing on the market that has this technology or can touch the quality the oven produces when cooking.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Contemporary Signature Design&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Broadly curved edges, hearth-shaped sculpted doors, premium stainless steel chassis and polished aluminum door handles connect the past to the future and reflect the rich heritage of cooking. The door comes in white, allowing you to perfectly match the oven to virtually any kitchen color palette and accompanying appliances. An elegant analog clock and timer, precise dial-control knobs and a color LCD interface are designed to maximize functionality, visibility and your ease of use.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Maximum Functionality&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
The 30&quot; Single Wall Speedcook Oven incorporates our remarkable Airspeed Technology - previously available only to commercial restaurants - that can prepare food with exquisite quality, up to 15 times faster than a conventional oven.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Cooks with 5 Star Results, 15x Faster&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Imagine cooking anything - from fresh asparagus in 45 seconds, a frozen pizza in 90 seconds, to a rack of lamb in 3-1/2 minutes, or a Thanksgiving turkey in 42 minutes - with five-star quality results and in a fraction of the time. Meats come out caramelized, moist and tender. Baked goods are golden brown, flaky and perfect. Vegetables are crisp, flavorful and nutritious.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Cook Everything with Ease&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Interact with the oven's high performance technology through a simple interface that guides you effortlessly through the settings for all your favorite dishes and recipes, taking guesswork out of the equation and delivering picture-perfect, delicious food in minutes.</description>

      <name>Gorgeous Kabbalah Gold-Plated Cuff</name>
      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>Includes a &quot;72 Names of God&quot; sterling silver cuff lightly plated in 24K gold by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.rachelbrownjewelry.com/&quot;target=_&quot;blank&gt;Rachel Brown&lt;/a&gt;.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Rachel Brown's core collection of jewelry is composed of sterling silver lightly plated in 24K gold. She has chosen this process because the gold wears off over time, the pieces become oxidized and scratched, can become lighter or darker depending on the energy of the person wearing them, and actually takes on the individuality and personal expression of one's soul and character. The pieces start to look like antiquities over time, appearing as though they had been uncovered from an archaeological dig, thus physically reflecting the 4000 year old wisdom of Kabbalah.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Rachel Brown's jewelry is based on Kabbalistic meditations composed of the 22 letters of the hebrew alphabet which Kabbalah recognizes as the DNA of the universe; thus, her pieces are engraved with hebrew letters expressing variations of these meditations. The spiritual power behind these meditations connect one to &quot;mind over matter&quot;, total control of one's life, and to a realm of bliss where no chaos exists. Simply scan the engraved letters on her jewelry with one's eyes and the energy emanates to one's soul and throughout one's existence. Kabbalah states that the &quot;eyes are the windows of the soul&quot;, so that when one scans the hebrew letter combinations a spiritual technology takes place as the soul connects to and downloads these energies.

      <name>Don't Miss Jason Wu's NYC Fashion Show, Michelle Obama's Inaugural Gown Designer</name>
      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>Includes 2 tickets to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.jasonwustudio.com/&quot;target=_&quot;blank&gt;Jason Wu's&lt;/a&gt; New York City Fashion Show on 9/11/09.  Jason became a household name when he was chosen to design Michelle Obama's stunning Inaugural gown.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The Jason Wu Collection is a manifestation of the eclectic and diverse background of its designer Jason Wu.  Wu combines modern lifestyle dressing with the spirit and detailing of haute couture in a way that is both innovative and romantically reflective.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Influenced by the classic photography of Richard Avedon and the collections of Charles James and Jacques Fath, Wu celebrates the female form by emphasizing a women's hourglass silhouette while utilizing the most luxurious fabrications and detailing.  Harking back to the days when women were always polished and styled to perfection, the Jason Wu collection aims to revitalize the art and perfection of dressing with a relaxed and youthful attitude.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Although only 26, Wu has already achieved many accomplishments.  At age 9, Wu began learning how to sew, draft patterns, and sketch in fashion proportions by using dolls and mannequins.  By the age of 14, he went to study sclupture in Tokyo and then spent his senior year of high school in Paris, where he decided to become a fashion designer.  Wu then enrolled in the prestigious Parson School of Design in New York.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
In February of 2006 Wu debuted his collection, emerging as one of the leading new American designers.  The Jason Wu collection is stocked at the finest luxury stores like Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom, Ikram, Jeffrey, Louis Boston, Susan, and Net-a-Porter.com.  The fashion star is a favorite among press, stylists and celebrities.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Jason continues to receive accolades including Fashion Group International's Rising Star Awards for Women's Ready-to-Wear in January 2008 and in July 2008 he was named one of the finalists in the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund.</description>

      <name>Own a Magnificent Maurice Lacroix Watch</name>
      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>Includes a Maurice Lacroix women's Masterpiece Phase de Lune Dame timepiece featuring a diamond bezel made out of Top Wesselton Diamonds.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;  
Even if Maurice Lacroix is a comparatively young watch brand, it already can look back on a remarkable series of innovative developments. Since the beginning of the 1990s, the brand has been concentrating on the development of attractive, surprising additional functions for mechanical watch models.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Today, Maurice Lacroix has demonstrated its outstanding expertise primarily in the area of retrograde displays as well as chronographs and moon phase indications.  This is instantiated not by the ML 106 manufacture movement, an exclusive chronograph calibre, but above all by the Memoire 1: With the Memory function, which found its initial application in this strictly limited chronograph, Maurice Lacroix has, in the year 2008, officially presented an entirely new Grande Complication.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Since the end of October 2006, Maurice Lacroix has been producing also complex movement components for mechanical calibres in its own workshops near Saignelegier. By that, the brand has taken its place in the exclusive club of Swiss manufacture brands.</description>

      <name>Solange Azagury-Partridge Pink Hotlips Ring</name>
      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>Includes a pink &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.solange.info/&quot;target=_&quot;blank&gt;Solange Azagury-Partridge&lt;/a&gt; HOTLIPS silver and lacquer ring.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
With no formal jewelry training, and no prejudices or preconceptions, Solange Azagury-Partridge started by working for costume jeweler, Nicky Butler of Butler &amp; Wilson, and then with decorative arts dealer, Gordon Watson, where she discovered great masterpieces of 20th century jewelry.  It was her decision in 1987 to design her own engagement ring, set with a rough diamond, and much-admired, that propelled Solange into her creative adventure as a fine jewelry designer.  In 1990, she set up her own company, and in 1995 opened her first shop, in London's Notting Hill, a luscious velvet-dark jewel-box of a boutique that quickly drew an international clientele of design-driven devotees, including rock-stars and movie-moguls, all searching for a totally new and relevant creative expression for precious jewelry.  Solange led the way forward with new generation talismanic ornaments, layered with cultural depths, their designs poised between pop art and ancient mysticism, irreverent and iconoclastic.  Her huge, expressive power rings, alive with color, touched with playful fantasy, and rich in gems and enamels, were, and are still, the creations most closely associated with Solange's dynamic design.  Through her rings, Solange heralded the rediscovery of jewelry as the most powerful, personal expression of individual style.</description>

      <name>Meet Sean Kingston At One of His Upcoming 2009 Concerts!</name>
      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>Includes 2 tickets and meet &amp; greet passes to an upcoming Sean Kingston concert.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Much has happened since the now 19-year-old emerged in July 2007. &quot;Beautiful Girls&quot; made history as one of the fastest ascents up the charts ever. Following that, the singer/rapper scored three more top ten hits including &quot;Me Love,&quot; &quot;Take You There&quot; and &quot;There's Nothin'.&quot;  He has sold more than six million digital singles, more than 4.5 million ringtones and has toured with artists like Gwen Stefani and Chris Brown. His self-titled debut Sean Kingston went to #1 in 21 countries and sold over 1 million worldwide.  &quot;Take You There&quot; and &quot;Love Like This&quot; climbed the radio and iTunes charts together giving him back-to-back hits in January. With a musical bloodline that includes Jamaican legendary producer Jack Ruby as his grandfather, it's no wonder Sean, who is finishing up his sophomore album, &lt;b&gt;Tomorrow&lt;/b&gt;, for Epic Records, was able to introduce a new genre where rap, reggae, pop, doo-wop and remarkable songwriting all combine into something totally refreshing.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Sean's sophomore album, Tomorrow, due out on Epic Records in August is a reflection of his growth as a young man and evolution as an artist. The life experiences gained over the past two years have been invaluable to Sean and have greatly influenced him. As he evolves, he remains positive and hopeful of what the future has to bring. The title track on the album reflects this sentiment. There are also messages of personal acceptance as heard in the song &quot;Face Drop&quot; and echoed throughout with songs including &quot;Magical&quot;.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The theme of Tomorrow is further evidenced by the expansion of artists and producers Sean collaborated with on the album. While he continues to work with J.R. Rotem, Sean also teams up with pop-punk veterans Good Charlotte co-writing &quot;Shoulda Let You Go&quot;, world-wide superstar Wyclef Jean who produced and lends vocals to &quot;Ice Cream Girl&quot; and chart-topping producer Red One on the first single off the album &quot;Fire Burning.&quot;</description>

THE BOX is an intimate restaurant and theater, with two bars and a stage.  A flexible design and top-notch sound system allow them to present all types of live entertainment: bands, shows, parties, private functions, and special events.

      <name>Foursome at the Exclusive Maidstone Club!</name>
      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>Enjoy a round with three friends at the famous Maidstone Club in East Hampton, NY!  This package includes golf cart and complimentary food on the course.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Set against the Atlantic Ocean in the posh town of East Hampton, N.Y., the Maidstone is one of the oldest and most exclusive golf clubs in the United States.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The course features several holes that play over and around a tidal marsh, but the main attraction are holes 7-14, which play through and over sand dunes next to the ocean.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The 7th demands that players hit a 145-yard shot to a green that is partially hidden by a massive dune; a small stake on the top of the dune provides a line of attack. Depending on the wind direction (it is often into the players' faces), golfers could need anything from a 9-iron to a 3-iron in order to find the green.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The 9th is perhaps the greatest links hole in America, with waves from the Atlantic washing onto the beach beside the tee box. The tee shot demands a controlled drive through the wind and between large dunes, and the approach shot is uphill to a large green that is heavily sloped and protected by pot bunkers and a severe drop off on the right.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The par-3 13th may be the prettiest hole on the course, with players hitting back into the wind from an elevated tee to a large green. The Atlantic Ocean in the background provides a beautiful backdrop.</description>

&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.lightbydebraskyler.com/SriYantra/index.htm&quot;target=_&quot;blank&gt;Debra Skyler&lt;/a&gt; designed the &quot;Light Collection&quot; to adorn the world with light and beauty. With inspirations from yoga and sacred geometry, the collection was created to unite extensive design experience with life energies. 
As yoga works in bringing our body mind and spirit into balance, so do these designs. Each hand crafted piece displays original workmanship with exquisite detail. Each piece comes with a detailed explanation of the symbolism to educate the spiritual newcomer and will reinforce the symbolism of those already on their journey. This necklace is from the Sri Lanka collection, influenced by the sacred geometric mandalas of Hindu Traditions. Sri Yantra represents the timeless principle of the universe and is used as an object of meditation. It is also known as the Goddess of wealth and prosperity. This is the most beautiful of the Yantras. Wear the jewelry as a form of self-expression. Wear the necklace to energize your life!</description>

      <name>Escape for Three Nights to the Calabash Cove Resort in St. Lucia</name>
      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>Includes: A 4 day/3 night stay for two people at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.calabashcove.com/&quot;target=_&quot;blank&gt;Cabalash Cove Resort &amp; Spa&lt;/a&gt; in beautiful St. Lucia! 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Calabash Cove Resort &amp; Spa is a luxury boutique hotel on the north-west coast of the beautiful Caribbean island of St. Lucia. The resort consists of twenty-six suites, all with jacuzzis and many with private pools, a restaurant and cocktail bar, library and games room, infinity-edge pool and a spa and fitness centre. 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Calabash Cove features a secluded white sand beach, with a custom-designed boardwalk, perfect for a candlelit dinner or romantic sunset stroll, and is tucked away on a gently sloping hillside overlooking the Caribbean Sea and Bonaire Bay at Mason Point on the northwest coast of Simply Beautiful St. Lucia.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
St. Lucia is a true example of paradise, with mile after mile of white sand beaches, kissed by tropical fish infused waters on one side, and giving way to lush rainforests and majestic volcanic peaks on the other.  The island is developed enough to boast a myriad of world-class restaurants, a deep berth marina and an 18-hole golf course, yet still retains the friendly culture and quaint village life that the Caribbean is so well known for.
