In the late 1890s, A.V.L. Verneuil first developed the process for creating synthetic sapphires, which quickly became known as the quot;the Verneuil method.quot; The Verneuil method was introduced to the United States during World War II, when the Linde Air Products Company used his method to mass produce synthetic star sapphires, called Lindy star sapphires. The original Lindy star sapphires are not produced today, but many companies have adapted similar methods for producing synthetic sapphires.br /
Original Lindy star sapphires originate from the state of Ohio in the United States. Carl von Linde, the founder of the Linde Air Products Company, first mass produced Lindy star sapphires in Cleveland, Ohio, and sent them to companies and manufacturers throughout the United States.br /
Linde patented their star sapphires in November of 1949. Production was discontinued in 1974 due to overseas competition. This one was produced in a Russian lab br /

Erin gt;br /
If you’re curious about the origins of the name Erin, you’ll enjoy knowing that this pretty female moniker can be traced back to the Emerald Isle. Erin is an Irish name, and it actually means, quot;Ireland”! In the lilting, poetic Gaelic language, this word was used to indicate the island of Ireland itself - over time, it began to be used as a first name. You may be familiar with the Irish catchphrase, quot;Erin Go Bragh” - this means quot;Ireland Forever”; therefore, there is really no name that is as purely Irish as the name Erin. br /
br /
Irish mythology also recorded the stories of a goddess named Ériu - she was the mother goddess of the Emerald Isle, and her name was pronounced much like Erin is pronounced today (Eru, rather than Erin, but quite close all the same). This protective, nurturing female spirit was thought to watch over the island and its people, along with her two sisters, Banba and Fódla. in the original Trinity of Ireland Celtic faith . This was captured in the Trinity of the shamrock or Clover With the rare 4 leaf Clover havinga 4th for Luck . br /
br /
The four-leaf clover is an uncommon variation of the common, three-leaved clover. According to tradition, such leaves bring good luck to their finders, especially if found accidentally. According to legend, each leaf represents something: the first is for faith, the second is for hope, the third is for love, and the fourth is for luck the three-leaf shamrock had been used by St. Patrick as a metaphor for the Christian Trinity./p

About Erin Dickins
A founding member of MANHATTAN TRANSFER, the original jazz vocal group, Ms.
Dickins continues to enchant audiences throughout the world. She has performed
and recorded with Leonard Cohen, Bette Midler, James Taylor, The Talking Heads,
James Brown, Barry Manilow, Jaco Pastorius and Ashford & Simpson, to name but a
few.
NICE GIRLS is Erin Dickins' debut solo album, recently released on Champagne
Records. Anchored by the single and video Nice Girls Don't Stay for Breakfast -a
remake of 1950's starlet Julie London's hit - Dickins' album was carefully
crafted over a two-year period by a group of renowned musicians including
composer Jesse Frederick (music for Flamingo Kid, Full House, Perfect Strangers,
Step By Step, Family Matters), pianist/arranger Rob Mounsey (Kurt Elling, Tony Bennett, Natalie Cole, Deborah Cox) and bassist David
Finck (Harry Connick Jr., Steve Kuhn, Liza Minelli, Rod Stewart, Sir Andre
Previn).
This collection of beautifully recorded and performed gems - from cool sultry
ballads to swinging arrangements, is a perfect musical reflection to Dickins'
engaging personality.
Dickins comes from an artistic family. Her mother, who traded photo-portraits
to a local opera singer in return for singing lessons for nine-year-old Erin,
was formerly a dancer with the Rockettes in New York. Erin's father was a
passionate amateur jazz pianist who taught Erin to sing and play, sharing with
her his deep love of music.
Dickins considers it her honor and responsibility to spread the joy that she
experiences every time she performs. Music is an instrument of transformation,
and Dickins is transformed when singing. She believes that as a musician she has
been given a unique gift. "When I perform I give 200 percent. If I can be an
instrument for joy, just for one instant, then I have done what is asked of me.
That's how you heal the planet, right?
One song, one person, one joyful encounter at a time - it's nice work if you
can get it."
Seeing Dickins perform with her live band is an experience you do not want to
miss. Riding off of the success of her recent launch at Avalon Theatre in
Easton, MD, Dickins will be performing several spot dates throughout the U.S. in
2011 and is booking international dates in China and Europe for 2012.
She is currently in the early stages of writing and pre-production for the
follow-up to Nice Girls with Frederick.
In the meantime, she continues to devote her time working with children at
SummerFame, a performing arts summer program she founded in 2000, along with her
other charitable efforts.
Quotes
"I have known Erin since 1969, and I've always thought she was a great
singerbecause she sings from her heart, and those kind of singers are my
favorites."
Tim Hauser - co-founder of Manhattan Transfer
"... Dickins is astute on the one hand, yet sensitive and sensual on the
other. Producing lyrical and enthralling renditions of famous jazz tunes such
as Billie Holiday's I Must Have That Man, or Julie London's Nice Girls Don't
Stay For Breakfast, a delight for the listening ear. Her live take of Frank Loesser's Adeleide's Lament is hilarious. Manhattan Transfer's Gene Pistilli
and producer Jesse Frederick - Dickins' go-to composers - have created
original tunes that allow her to redefine the boundaries of vocal jazz"
Katherine Bernard, NPR, USA Co-Host
"2 Boomer Babes
Radio Hour
"... The [CD] production by Jesse Frederick is masterful: clean, dynamic and
refreshing. He simply surrounds that great voice with texture, knowing when to
allow the musicians to dance with it, and when to stay out of the way. And
Erin floats through it all like a cool breeze on a summer day. Clearly there
is a smile in her voice and her vocal performance is technically superb while
remaining effortless and laid back. She has grown immensely as an artist, all
the while honoring her roots and enjoying the fun I first heard in her so long
ago."
Mike Jahn - award winning novelist and author of Jim
Morrison and the Doors: An Unauthorized Book. Jahn served as rock reviewer for
the New York Times 1968-1973
"Break out the martinis and the silver cocktail shaker for song stylist
Erin Dickins who thrilled the packed house at the art deco Avalon Theatre in
Easton with songs from her newest CD, Nice Girls.' Dickins sophisticated
scat, swing and ballads remind the listener that she was one of the founding
members of Manhattan Transfer. With a nine-piece backup band that has more
industry awards than an evening's worth of Grammy's, Dickins tore the place
up, tossing her signature pearls to the crowd. She has performed with the
likes of Leonard Cohen, James Taylor, Linda Ronstadt, Bette Midler, James
Brown, Randy Neuman, Roberta Flack, Peabo Bryson, Barry Manilow, Dr. John,
Paul Butterfield and Levon Helm."
Jordan Wright, Reviewer for The Washington Examiner
The Washingtonian Magazine, USA
"Erin, you swing your "S" off and your intonation is impeccable."
Francois Moutin Jazz Bassist, Moutin Reunion,
France/USA
