@seacity - I would go back to the epubs PeterT provided.

As I understand it, the epub he Polished is OK on your Nook, but the one you Polished is not. So I would open the two epubs in the Calibre Book Editor (press T) and eyeball them for differences. The Editor does have a book compare feature but if you're not familiar with the internals of EPUBs then. IMO, you'll be better off using your eyes - it's a minimal 'book' so differences should be obvious.

I would also seek to eliminate extraneous processes (eg Save to Disk, Send to Device, and Calibre Companion) by copying the epubs directly from my hard disk to the Nook's storage. It's not because I think any of them are the 'culprit' but the shortest path is usually the quickest when it comes to problem solving - it also removes nagging doubts.
