Michelle Grabner
Michelle Grabner, artist, critic, professor, gallery director, and co-curator of the 2014 Whitney Biennial
Michelle Grabner is a Chicago-based artist, curator, art writer, Professor and Chair of Painting and Drawing at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, senior critic for Yale University in painting and printmaking, and a curator of the 2014 Whitney Biennial – is a dynamic force who has been at the fore of the art world with her ambitious and varied initiatives for some time.
Staying attuned to what is vital and relevant locally, nationally, and internationally, Grabner operates her practice as an artist and provocateur from her Midwest locale and roots. In partnership with her husband, artist Brad Killam, she has run the small but dogged art space The Suburban located behind her Chicago home for fourteen years. More recently, the couple began the Poor Farm, an international alternative art center in rural Wisconsin.
As one of three curators for the upcoming Whitney Biennial, Grabner is quite possibly the first to identify principally as an artist. With a traveling survey exhibition of her work organized by the Museum of Contemporary Art Cleveland opening this fall, her friend and mentor David Robbins explains, "Michelle wears a lot of hats but she's an artist first and last. Artists have a different agenda than do curators, a different relation to history. . . . So with Michelle's participation [as a curator of the Whitney Biennial] we may see a greater openness to artists who have independently developed valuation systems and uses for art that depart from those reinforced by academe and the marketplace."
Championing good art wherever it might be found, Michelle Grabner speaks on her own work, her exhibition spaces, and the process of curating the Whitney Biennial in "The Center Doesn't Hold" for Tuesday Evenings at the Modern.

|This place lasted longer than Cafe Gratitude and Cha Ya which used to be on the same block. You can't go wrong ordering the Maggie Mudd ice creams. 3 years ago, they had a sign that said "vegan ice cream served here" Not sure if they have that sign there anymore. Lots of knick Knack to browse or to buy. Cool one of kind gifts. Non practical but the person receiving it will appreciate it.

|I had a big bowl of the soy based and coconut based "ice cream" today and it was excellent. I had 4 "ice cream" flavors and 1 sorbet, all good. I also tried a few more flavors that were good too. They had 3 * soy ice cream, 3 * coconut ice cream, 6 * sorbet, ~12 * gelato. My server was very good, and the environment was pleasant too. Highly recommended.

Re-Create 4 Indian Summer Cocktails From SF Cocktail Week
This week is San Francisco Cocktail Week, bringing the best Bay Area food and spirits together. I attended the Spirited Food Trucks event, located at the SoMa Streat Food Park, a hub for SF food trucks. Four bars from around the Bay Area presented Indian Summer cocktails, while the food trucks bordered the barn-turned-bar. The bartenders kindly shared their drink recipes with us, so you, too, can celebrate the last bit of Summer with these exotic cocktails. While you might not have the special equipment, simply combine the ingredients together, and serve them on the rocks.

Kim Kardashian got an unexpected welcome at her perfume launch Thursday — one that might have left her smelling more floury than flowery.
A woman dumped flour — bleached all-purpose, apparently — on the reality star as she was posing for photos on the red carpet before the event at the London Hotel in West Hollywood.
"She came from Kim's left, with a Zip-Lock baggie," said an Access Hollywood staffer who saw the flour-bombing.
At that point, some security guards whisked Kim away, while others detained the woman.
According to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, deputies and even paramedics were called to the scene, although Kim declined to press charges or get medical treatment, The Associated Press reported.
Both her sisters later took to Twitter with obligatory messages of encouragement and bewilderment.
"Classy to flour bomb my sister at a charity event helping women," Kourtney tweeted.
"I wish I was with my sister tonight. I bet you that woman wouldn't have dared [try] a thing…" Khloe said.
As for the flour-thrower's motives, E! Online reported that some witnesses said they had heard her talking about fur earlier.
After cleaning the flour out of her hair and returning to the event, Kim was reportedly in high spirits, possibly because her attacker didn't have the best aim and missed the starlet's face.

For James Agee, night was the most enchanting and blessed part of the day, and he often wrote about its hushed, starry beauty and the wonder of being awake when nearly everyone else was under the strange and necessary spell of sleep. Agee also loved movies, another form of magic that takes place in the dark, and both of these passions are manifest in the opening pages of his best-known work, the posthumously published, Pulitzer Prize–winning novel, A Death in the Family (1957). Although Agee completed few books over the course of his somewhat frenetic, all-too-brief writing life—one volume of poetry, two works of fiction, and the provocative prose lyric Let Us Now Praise Famous Men (1941)—he wrote scores of ardent, impeccable, and far-reaching movie reviews and ultimately left behind a highly concentrated yet remarkably innovative and profoundly influential oeuvre.Less

When Risk Is Disconnected From Consequence, the System Itself Is at Risk
If we understand risk cannot be eliminated, it can only be transferred, then we will understand why the current financial trickery in Europe and elsewhere is doomed to fail.
The entire global economy's fundamental financial instability can be traced back to one simple rule of Nature: risk cannot be eliminated, it can only be transferred to others or masked. And when it is transferred to others or masked, then the causal feedback between risk and consequence is severed.
Once risk has been disconnected from consequence, then it is impossible to discover the price of capital and risk. Once capital and risk have been mispriced, then the inevitable result is misallocation of capital and a positive feedback loop of self-referential, self-reinforcing risk.
This can be illustrated by imagining yourself in a casino where a consortium will guarantee your losses up to $1 million. We call the disconnect of risk from the resulting gain/loss "moral hazard," and to understand the ramifications of moral hazard, we need only compare the actions of two gamblers in the casino: one is using his own money, the other has none of his own capital at risk, and his losses will be covered up to $1 million.
How much risk will you take on in gaming if you can lose $1 million without any loss to yourself? Obviously, we will accept enormous risks because if we win the high-risk bet, the gain will be ours to keep. Low-risk bets yield low returns but high-risk bets yield high returns.
If we actually score a few high-risk "wins," this success feeds our risk appetite.This is a positive feedback loop: our wins reinforce our risk appetite, while negative feedback (the losses from losing bets) no longer register--they have been eliminated from our calculations of risk and gain.
This positive feedback eventually leads us to make stupendously large bets.Eventually, we bet $1 million on a high-risk play and lose. We are wiped out, but oh well, it was fun while it lasted. If we were especially disciplined and clever, we squirreled away some of our winnings in our own account: we kept the gain and the consortium took all the losses.
The risk didn't vanish, it was simply transferred to others who now bear the cost of the unfettered risk being played with abandon. The consortium who financed the no-risk gambling spree now has to absorb the $1 million in loss. If the consortium masked its own risk by presenting a phantom financial security to the casino, then the casino will have to absorb the loss.
In effect, the risk was transferred to the entire system. Since the consortium is made up of many investors, and the casino has many investors, then the risk and loss was effectively spread over many participants. The $1 million loss, catastrophic to any one player, is effectively distributed to everyone in the system.
When losses are trivial compared to the size of the system, then this distribution of transferred risk results in a modest loss to all participants.
But let's suppose the player with the $1 million backstop was extraordinarily successful with insanely high-risk bets, and he built the $1 million stake into $100 million, which he then rolled into several stupendous bets.
He loses, because the risk of gambling hasn't been elminated, it has only been masked and transferred to others. Now the consortium faces a loss 100 times its guaranteed backstop, and since its capital is only $10 million, it is also wiped out and leaves the casino with $90 million in uncollectible debt.
If the casino needs that $90 million to pay its own speculative debts, then it too will be wiped out.
This is how one player who manages to mask or transfer risk to others can bring down entire systems. The risk only appears trivial and manageable at the start, but since the negative feedback of consequence (reality) has been eliminated from the players' perspective, then risk piles up in a self-reinforcing positive feedback.
Since the system itself has disconnected risk from consequence with backstops, guarantees and illusory claims of financial security, then it is has lost the essential feedback required to adapt to changing circumstances. As the risk being transferred to the system rises geometrically, the system is incapable of recognizing, measuring or assessing the risk being transferred until it is so large it overwhelms the system in a massive collapse/default.
The consortium has only two ways to create the illusion of solvency when the punter's $100 million bet goes bad: borrow $100 million from credulous possessors of capital or counterfeit it on a printing press. These are precisely the strategies being pursued by central banks and states around the globe. BUt since risk remains disconnected from gain/loss, then capital and risk both remain completely mispriced.
Risk is being transferred to the entire global financial system at a fantastic rate, because counterfeiting money or borrowing it on this scale to cover losses creates new self-reinforcing feedbacks of risk.
As long as risk is being masked or transferred to others who don't reap the gain, they only reap the losses, then the system is doomed to self-reinforcing instability and eventual collapse.
The only solution is to enforce the causal connection between risk and consequence: those who took the risk have to absorb all the loss. Since risk cannot be eliminated, it can only be masked or transferred, then all the tricks that are being played out in Europe, China, Japan and the U.S. are only enabling risk to pile ever higher in the system itself.
At some unpredictable stick/slip point, the accumulated risk will cause the system to implode like a supernova star.

Drug information provided by: IBM Micromedex
Difenoxin and atropine combination medicine is used along with other measures to treat severe diarrhea in adults. Difenoxin helps stop diarrhea by slowing down the movements of the intestines.
Since difenoxin is chemically related to some narcotics, it may be habit-forming if taken in doses that are larger than prescribed. To help prevent possible abuse, atropine (an anticholinergic) has been added. If higher-than-normal doses of the combination are taken, the atropine will cause unpleasant effects, making it unlikely that such doses will be taken again.
Difenoxin and atropine combination medicine should not be used in children. Children with diarrhea should be given solutions of carbohydrates (sugars) and electrolytes (important salts) to replace the water and important salts that are lost from the body during diarrhea.
This medicine is available only with your doctor's prescription.
This product is available in the following dosage forms:

1922 - 2014
Historical Period:
The 20th Century and Beyond
Gordon Tullock (1922-2014) and his 1962 coauthor, Nobel laureate James M. Buchanan, are widely recognized as co-founders of public choice, a field that systematically applies the rational choice approach of economics to the analysis of political markets. During the past half-century Gordon Tullock has continually advanced the frontiers of political economy, most particularly with respect to the workings of representative democracies and autocracies. His exposure to formal economic training was limited to one course taught by Henry Simons as part of the law curriculum at the University of Chicago. Although Tullock does not hold a degree in economics, he is one of the most respected and widely cited economists of the modern age. His influence on modern political economy is simply immense.

Ford Mustang.
Start more than a car.
Australia's best-selling sports car of 2017. is now even better, with a new, sleeker design, more advanced technology and greater performance. From every angle, the 2018 Mustang makes a powerful impression. There's a wider, more aggressive mesh grille, re-profiled bumper, new air extractor bonnet vents and new LED headlights with signature tri-bar lighting.
Hear the Power
Performance is at the heart of every Mustang ever built. The unique thrill of opening up on that straight line. The quick and responsive downshift. Not to mention the legendary power under the hood and that throaty growl that comes with it.
5.0L V8 Engine
5.0L V8 Engine
The Mustang GT's 5.0L V8 engine has been expertly engineered to maximise power from every compression by utilising a dual-fuel, high-pressure direct injection and low-pressure port injection system. Boasting 339kW1 of power and 556Nm1 of torque, Mustang GT's engine roar and wide-eyed performance are the stuff of the legends.
10-Speed Automatic Transmission
10-Speed Automatic Transmission
The new optional 10-speed SelectShift® automatic transmission is the best automatic in any Mustang ever, designed for optimum ratio progression and efficiency. It provides more accurate, quicker upshift and downshift capability, and if you're someone who likes ultimate control, steering wheel-mounted shift paddles are included as well.
6-Speed Manual Transmission
6-Speed Manual Transmission
What some would consider a lost art, Ford consider a key ingredient of a sports car. For the driving purist, the standard 6-speed manual offers the ultimate in control and engagement.
Active Valve Exhaust
Active Valve Exhaust
Want to choose when you hear that signature growl? The unique Active Valve Exhaust feature lets you choose exactly when you want to make your presence known. Or, you can turn down the volume when you're cruising through a quiet neighbourhood.
Customise Your View
The 12-inch Digital Instrument Cluster is the first all-LCD display ever offered on a Mustang. It's easy to view, fast and responsive. And, like everything else in this Mustang, absolutely beautiful.
You can set your favorite drive settings and the MyMode system will remember them next time you get behind the wheel. Program your ideal ESC, throttle, steering, exhaust and gauge appearence preferences and save them with a touch of a button.
Once you've selected your ideal layout - Normal, Sport or Track - it's time to choose your colours. Ensure your instruments are uniquely yours by choosing the primary and secondary colours from 30 options. It takes mere seconds to totally change the mood from precise and business like, to vibrant and funky using Mustang's MyColour feature.
Track Apps

Performance metrics are instantly provided in the instrument cluster. Accelerometer displays lateral and longitudinal g-forces, acceleration times and lap times, plus automatic and countdown starts. Launch Control on manual models integrates brakes, traction control and powertrain control to help ensure smooth, consistent starts.
Not too many, not too few. Select from six different gauges showing vital mechanical data for the three MyGauge slots, ensuring you always have the information you need right in front of your eyes. Prefer a more minimalist view? You can opt for as much as a little information as you like, that's the beauty of the Mustang's Digital Instrument Cluster.
Feel the Road
The straight and narrow is fun for that open-throttle acceleration, but there's nothing like the thrill of powering through a corner with awe-inspiring control.
MagneRide™ Dampers
MagneRide™ Dampers
The optional MagneRide™ damping system provides lightning-quick responsiveness to changing road conditions, automatically adjusting 1,000 times per second. That's how you can count on optimum handling performance.

Five drive modes – Normal, Snow/Wet, Sport, Track or the new Drag Strip mode – let you dial in the dynamics you want. Handling and response times are adjusted based on your selection. All you have to do is flip the toggle switch on the center stack to get what you want.
Electric Power Assisted Steering (EPAS)

Electric Power Assisted Steering adjusts to provide you with greater control in a range of road and weather conditions, and even crosswinds and potholes. And it only activates when needed, saving you fuel. Best of all, you're in control. Choose between three power-assisted settings to adjust steering effort: comfort, sport and normal.
Experience the Future
Performance may already run in its veins, but it's advanced driver assist technology that's taking the Mustang to a whole new level of sophistication.
LKA - Lane Keep Assist
LKA - Lane Keep Assist
By monitoring road markings, LKA detects if you appear to unintentionally move out of your lane. If you do, your steering wheel will vibrate to warn you. If lane departure continues it will also direct you back into your lane by applying steering torque, unless your indicator is on.
AEB - Autonomous Emergency Braking
AEB - Autonomous Emergency Braking
When traffic is crawling along, it can be easy to miss someone suddenly stopping up front. In speeds of less than 40km/h, AEB detects if the car in front has unexpectedly stopped or a pedestrian steps out onto the road and automatically applies the brakes if you don't.
ACC - Adaptive Cruise Control
ACC - Adaptive Cruise Control
Cruise Control is great when you leave the city limits. But what about when you're driving on busy highways and freeways? Mustang now features Adaptive Cruise Control which lets you relax in traffic by reading the traffic ahead with radar sensors and managing your speed and distance as it changes.
AHB - Auto High-Beam
AHB - Auto High-Beam
Driving through the country can be a stressful task, especially at night. Auto High Beam lends a helping hand by automatically turning the high beams on and off depending on light level and surrounding vehicles.
Ford Mustang has been awarded Australia's highest ANCAP safety rating possible: 5 stars, so you can drive with greater confidence and peace of mind (excludes RS which is not rated).

Common Core and Disadvantaged Students
It's no secret that there has been plenty of heated debate about the Common Core State Standards. Supporters say we need the standards to strengthen our workforce. Opponents contend that control over educational expectations should rest with local school boards and teachers, causing some lawmakers to back away from the standards. In May, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence signed legislation delaying common-core implementation in his state; funding for the standards has stalled in Michigan; and bills scrapping the common core are pending in Pennsylvania and elsewhere.
But for all the talk about economic competitiveness, fidelity to federalism, and empowering educators, there has been hardly any discussion of the importance of the standards to the least-served students in public education, the lower-income, disproportionately African-American and Latino students who before too long are likely to make up the majority of the public school population. For those students, the new national standards represent a path to the demanding subjects that many local educators have long doubted they could or should study. The achievement gap in public education, unfortunately, is in no small part an expectations gap.
The common core is composed of things every student should experience. Drafted by two Rhodes scholars and a range of subject experts and teachers under the auspices of the National Governors Association and the Council of Chief State School Officers, the measures cover both high-quality literature (with recommended readings like The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and "A Raisin in the Sun") to absorbing nonfiction on topics ranging from planets to presidents, Puritans, painting, and prairies, and baseball players—a breadth of content that builds what the scholar E.D. Hirsch calls "cultural literacy," the background knowledge that allows students to comprehend more of what they read.
With research revealing a troubling decline in the reading levels of high school texts, the common core proposes less Twilight and A Boy Called It and more of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "Letter From Birmingham Jail" and Neil deGrasse Tyson's Gravity in Reverse: The Tale of Albert Einstein's Greatest Blunder.
In writing, the common core downplays the simplistic sharing of feelings that's pervasive in public education classrooms today in favor of requiring students to explain things coherently and argue persuasively. And the new standards seek to strip redundancy out of the K-12 math sequence so students get further faster.
Traditionally, few disadvantaged students have been taught anything resembling the common core in public education. Since the start of the expansion of public education beyond an ad hoc local activity a century ago (in 1900, only about 6 percent of students received high school diplomas), impoverished and minority students routinely have been routed into undemanding basic-literacy and vocational courses, where they've been taught mostly to use their hands rather than their heads.
The historian Richard Hofstadter captured that reality in his 1963 Pulitzer Prize-winning book Anti-Intellectualism in American Life, where he wrote that "professional education" had come to believe deeply that "in a system of mass education, an academically serious training is an impossibility for more than a modest fraction of the student population."
A spate of national school reform reports of the 1980s rejected that strongly held orthodoxy in public education, and many states embraced the reformers' call for an expanded core curriculum known as the "new basics"—only to have local school systems channel many disadvantaged students and students of color into watered-down courses where they earned English credits for "typing," science credits for "auto body repair," and math credits for "commercial food preparation." I'll never forget a high school teacher in Florida telling me at the time how wrong-headed the state's new graduation requirements were. "What we really need for many kids," he said, "are courses in how to plant trees and such." Over and over, I heard educators define their expectations in terms of students' race and class.
More recently, the federal No Child Left Behind Act demanded that states create "world class" standards, test students' mastery, and hold educators accountable for the results—an attempt to pressure educators to help underserved groups of students. But the well-intentioned law's hair-trigger penalties prompted many states to lower their expectations of students rather than have large swaths of their schools declared failures.
The same pressure is mounting against the common core in the wake of discouraging (but hardly surprising) results on new tests based on the standards. The common-core expectations are "way too high," the historian and reform critic Diane Ravitch told The New York Times recently after New York education officials announced that more than two-thirds of the state's students had flunked common-core-linked tests. "Maybe [many students] don't need to go to college," she added.
But who decides which students are tracked toward college, and at what point are those decisions made? Third grade? Ninth grade? Supporting lower standards today amounts to capitulating to the race- and class-based stereotypes of the past, half a century after the passage of federal civil rights laws and just as the nation is transitioning to a minority-majority school population.
Given public education's history, commentators' claims that we need to "go back to the days when we trusted teachers" to ensure their students are achieving high standards ring hollow. They're a ticket back to second-class educational status for many students. Yet it's a common refrain among libertarians and public education defenders alike, who want to put power over standards back in the hands of local educators and school boards.
Nor should we lose sight of students' views about standards. Majorities of them say that their courses aren't challenging enough. They want more rigor, not less. And it's also true that nearly every country in the world with a high-performing education system has common standards, even as they give educators lots of instructional latitude in meeting them (exactly the sort of "local control" we should embrace in this country). Importantly, most of the international high-fliers are built on the conviction that hard work is more important to student success than innate ability, that there should be high common standards because they're within most students' grasp and thus all students should have access to them. "In top-performing countries, rigor is synonymous with educational equity," writes Amanda Ripley in her new book The Smartest Kids in the World. That's not a widely shared view in American education.
As a result, we're not going to get the nation's disadvantaged students where they need to be without explicit expectations. If we want students to perform at high levels, we have to set the bar higher, and that's what the common core does in most places. At this point, we need to focus on the hard work of implementing the new standards, not on whether we should have them.

Here's a puzzle I have been pondering over.
If we have two extremal black holes with the same charge, the electrostatic repulsion between them ought to cancel the gravitational attraction between them. Without any net attraction or repulsion between them, how close can we bring these two black holes to each other without merging? A peculiarity of the metric seems to suggest the event horizon is always infinitely far away for extremal black holes $\int_R^r dr' \frac{1}{r'-R} = \infty$. Does this give enough elbow room for both black holes to get arbitrarily close to each other without merging?

If you're a fan of Asus' elfin Eee PC and you want to stand out from the crowd without having to wait in line for the larger, 8.9in model, how about a standard unit kitted out in carbon fibre instead?
One enterprising eBayer is offering just that: an Eee covered in the hi-tech material and with a memory and storage upgrade under the bonnet too.
Eee PC kitted out in... carbon
Up for grabs at a buy-now price of £400 - postage is £29 on top of that - is a 7in Eee with an 8GB solid-state drive, 2GB of memory and Windows XP pre-loaded. Linux lovers may want to re-apply the bundled Xandros OS, but they should appreciate the bundled Logitech mini-mouse no matter what.
But the real appeal comes from the "exclusive carbon fibre design", which gives the Eee's lid and wrist rest area a suitable sci-fi zig-zag look.
The sportscar of sub-notebooks?
Either that, or something reminiscent of the compact Lamborghini laptop Asus announced this week.
There's a catch, of course: the modified laptop will be sent from Taiwan, so you'll have to put up with a Chinese-English combo keyboard.
Full details on eBay here.
Thanks to reader Ben Parkinson for the tip.

NEA welcomes spotlight on education during president's State of the Union
Investing in education and economic prosperity go hand in hand
WASHINGTON - January 25, 2011 -NEA President Dennis Van Roekel tonight thanked President Barack Obama for shining a spotlight on education during his second State of the Union.
"We thank President Obama for shining a spotlight on education and for recognizing the remarkable work of the nation's teachers. Our students' futures and the economic well-being of our nation are at stake. We know that the road to the American dream runs directly through our nation's classrooms.
"Our members—millions of talented teachers, education support professionals, and higher education faculty—are ready to contribute to this discussion, to roll up their sleeves and keep working hard to improve our public schools one student at a time, one school at a time, one community at a time.
"President Obama is tackling the pressing issues of our times head on. His priorities—putting more Americans back to work and getting our fiscal and economic house in order—are indeed essential to the long-term economic well-being of our nation.
"Policymakers need to make tough choices to restore fiscal discipline, but we hope they do not jeopardize our students' education, which is tied to all of our futures.
"We welcome the president's call to fix No Child Left Behind. We agree that it is time to right-size the role of the federal government in education. However, we remain concerned that competitive grants such as Race to the Top create winners and losers among our students. We need to give more students access to an education that will prepare them for the challenges of the 21st century and open new opportunities for children, especially minority children and those in low-income families.
"NEA is committed to the success of all students and ensuring that education remains the engine that moves America forward. We look forward to working with this Congress and the administration to continue the important work of transforming the nation's public schools."

Lovelies, with the Valentine's Day just around the corner, I thought today would be fun to share ten of my favourite romantic comedies, including ten quotes from those movies that rock my world. They are perfect for a cozy evening-in and just the thing you need to unwind after a busy day! So here they are:
Sleepless in Seattle - Annie Reed: Now that was when people KNEW how to be in love. They knew it! Time, distance... nothing could separate them because they knew. It was right. It was real. It was...
Bridget Jones - Bridget: This is an occasion for genuinely tiny knickers.
When Harry Met Sally - Harry: I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.
Pretty Woman - Vivian: In case I forget to tell you later, I had a really good time tonight.
Love Actually - PM: ...If you look for it, I've got a sneaking suspicion... love actually is all around.
Notting Hill - Anna: After all... I'm just a girl, standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her.
The 40 Year-Old Virgin - Andy: Is it true that if you don't use it you lose it?
The Ugly Truth - Mike: That's crap. They say they want romance, they say they want true love, but all they want is a check list. Is he perfect? Is he handsome? Is he a doctor?...
Along Came Polly - Irving: It's not about what happened in the past, or what you think might happen in the future. It's about the ride...
Wedding Crashers - Jeremy: I'm not perfect. But who are we kidding? Neither are you. And you wanna know what? I dig it! And...You shut your mouth when you're talking to me!

Nothing makes me feel better than a shower and some scent. If I'm in a bad mood, or want to play with my image, a spritz will do the trick.
I am VERY GLAD to have found this site; to know that there are other people out there who are as fascinated
by fragrance as I am.
Since I was 14, I have been wearing Robe D'un Soir, by Carven. My Dad brought me back a bottle of the eau de cologne from France in 1967. I cannot describe the effect this unusual scent has had
