1. Foxy Brown -- Foxy Browns
   WHATEVER aroma Foxy Brown (above) is exuding should be bottled and sold. Last Friday, she had the gang at P.M. abuzz when she canoodled, cavorted and then sped away with supermodel Tyson Beckford. On Tuesday, she was back at the Haitian-themed lounge - this time locking lips with NBA hunk Chris Webber. And who was sitting in the adjacent banquette with Kimora Lee Simmons trying to avert his eyes? None other than Tyson Beckford! Also on hand: Queen Latifah, Busta Rhymes, Wyclef Jean with fellow Haitian Garcelle Beauvais, and A.J.
2. Brown Bear -- Brown Bears
   Brown bear moms (called sows) perform an amazing feat while sleeping through the winter: they give birth! Breeding season occurs May to July, but implantation of the eggs is delayed for up to five months, and cubs are not born until January or February, during the coldest part of the winter. There are usually two cubs in a litter, and they are born almost hairless, toothless, and with their eyes sealed shut. They find their mother's nipples by heading for the warmth. Although the sow will sleep through the winter, the cubs spend their time nursing, wrestling, and keeping warm in her fur. The cubs' eyes open when they are six weeks old, and by the time spring comes around they have grown teeth and thick fur and are able to follow the sow outside the den.
3. Xalatan -- Eyes
   Xalatan is the first and only prostaglandin-based glaucoma drug, which gives it a competitive edge. It is taken only once a day; other drops must be taken more often. And aside from the eye pigmentation, it has fewer side effects. In the United States, the company sells the drug for about $36 a bottle wholesale, far more expensive than the cheapest generic, but roughly in line with other brand-name glaucoma medications, according to industry data and experts.
4. Masks -- Eyes
   A number of standard masks are used in different dramas. A skilfully carved mask will appear to have subtle changes of expression depending on the way in which the wearer turns his head and the angle at which it is held. This is one of several variations of a young-woman mask based on an original design by Zeami, known as Zô-onna. The false eyebrows painted high on the forehead and the blackened teeth were fashionable cosmetic styles for over a thousand years until the late nineteenth century." See Japanese art and theater.
5. Red Eye
   The Red Eye™ is about the size of a filter and weighs less than 100 grams. The bulk and weight have been eliminated by using a durable and compact, high index, high clarity optical material which substantially reduces the size and weight of the lens. All Red Eye™ wide angle adapters feature a multi-layer anti-reflective coating to increase light transmission to near 100% for optimum image clarity, contrast and sharpness. In addition, hard coatings offer an extra degree of scratch resistance and improve water repellency. The lens housing is anodized aluminum and uses standard 62mm, 72mm, 77mm or 82mm thread mount. Each lens comes with its own hand-crafted padded leather case.
6. Red Eye -- Red-Eye
   Red-eye gravy is an American Southern specialty. The gravy is made by frying a piece of ham such as Smithfield or Virginia ham then removing it from the pan. Hot black coffee, is added to the pan, scraping up the browned ham bits. The liquid is then reduced to form a gravy which is poured over the ham.
7. Browning (Browning, Kurt - Skater) -- Kurt Browning
   Kurt Browning certainly wasn't the first person to attempt the quad. In the 1980s, several skaters were already trying it, including Brian Boitano, Brian Orser and Jozef Sabovcik. At the 1986 European Championships, Jozef seemed to have succeeded in landing the quad. However, replays showed that Jozef's free foot brushed the ice when he landed the jump, and the ISU didn't give it credit as a "successfully landed jump."
8. Emily Browning
   Gorgeous (she looks like a young Angelina Jolie) 15-year-old Emily Browning is one lucky Aussie teen. She was chosen to play the orphaned Violet in the new Jim Carrey fanciful adventure Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events. This isn't the first time on film for the young actress. She was a creepy young ghost in Ghost Ship and ran from an even creepier ghost in the horror thriller Darkness Falls. Before that, Emily was in loads of TV in her native Australia.
9. Jackson Browne
   Jackson Browne is the self-titled debut album of singer Jackson Browne. It is often mistakenly called Saturate Before Using, because the words appear on the album cover, which was designed to look like a burlap sack that would require saturation before its first use. For this very reason, Asylum Records executives suggested to no avail that the words be removed from the album cover and nearly rejected the cover art outright. The confusion over the title returned when the album was converted to CD format, when the words appeared on the spine of the jewel case as the album title.
10. David Brown
    David Brown was a patternmaker and began business in Huddersfield, England in 1860. The company's primary business was the manufacture of gears. In a partership with Harry Ferguson in 1936, 1350 Ferguson-Brown tractors were built. The partnership soon dissolved... and Ferguson left for the United States (later partnering with Ford). The first David Brown tractor, the VAK1, was shown in 1939. Initial orders were for 3000 units, however World War II reduced the actual number built to only 1000.
