Reprint from The Baltimore Messenger, February 26, 2001
|Composing career success
|Roland Park
resident's music takes her up the scale
Larry Perl
Lorraine Whittlesey had no plans to watch the Grammy Awards on TV or use her invitation to attend the show in Los Angeles this week
Although the Roland Park resident is a Grammy voter and, indirectly, a past nominee, she's too busy writing and producing music in her home studio on Roland Avenue.
The classically trained pianist has composed commissioned works for the U.S. Navy, The Baltimore Symphony Orchestra and The National Trust, among others.
Eighteen of her compositions have premiered at Carnegie Hall.
She is also a former rock keyboardist and songwriter, whose New Wave band, The Lines, had a hit single, "Let's Be Modern" in 1980.
"I love all kinds of music," says Whittlesey, who incorporates classical, blues, gospel and pop into her instrumental and choral works.
Her philosophy of composing is, "Try and try and try, and some things work out and some don't."
Whittlesey studied TV and film scoring at UCLA and contributed background music for the TV show "Fantasy Island."
Her music even appears on a hot-selling, Grammy-nominated hip-hop album.
Featured on the 1999 CD "Nature's Fury" by the rap group Naughty By Nature is the hit song "Wicked Bounce," which was originally a Whittlesey ballad called "How Can You Live Without Me?"
Somehow, it caught the ear of the band's producer. Now, Whittlesey gets royalty checks from around the world and even from Internet downloads.
Whittlesey, 53, has had a successful career with or without a hip-hop credit.
"I don't think it's my claim to fame," she says. "I think it's just something that happened along the way. I've done very well."
As a member of the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences, Whittlesey voted this year for Grammy nominees ranging from rock's Radiohead to classical pianist Murray Perahia.
The letters ASCAP on the license plate of her green minivan announce her as a long-time member of the licensing organization American Society of Composers and Producers.
She is working on musical projects including a cabaret-style collaboration with the noted singer and performance artist Joyce Scott. They recorded a critically acclaimed CD, "Try This." She is producing an upcoming concert March 16 by the Dunbar Jazz Band. And she is artist-in-residence at Western Maryland College and has composed a choral work that will be performed April 22 in honor of the investiture of the college's new president.
The U.S. Naval Choir, Peabody Children's Chorus and Concert Artists of Baltimore have performed her music. The Naval composition in 1986 was to honor a new aircraft carrier, the U.S.S. Theodore Roosevelt.
Whittlesey won a 2001 composition award from the Maryland State Arts Council.
All of which verifies her claim: "I'm busier than three people need to be."
At home with her work
Whittlesey and her husband, Markell, a computer programmer and Gilman School graduate, live in an original Roland Park house that she likes to call "a work in progress."
Both work from home and have virtually identical business names. His is Private Sector Inc.; hers is Private Sector Productions, Ltd., and her Web address is private-sector.com.
In her third-floor studio, two keyboards are hooked up to a computer, one for typing and the other for composing. She can program the latter to sound like any musical instrument she wants to write for, even a glockenspiel. Also hooked to the computer are a mixer and a synthesizer module.
"This technology doesn't make you a composer," Whittlesey says. "But it does for you what a word processor does for a writer - makes it easier to compose. It's an enabler."
At the low-tech end of the spectrum is an old Farfisa organ in a carrying case marked The Lines. It's from her days as a New Wave rocker.
She refuses to be pigeonholed as anything more than a writer, composer and producer.
"I can't be defined," she says. "I can't be characterized, and who would want to be?"
Making of a Grammy voter
Whittlesey's first claim to fame was as a young child, when she appeared for two years in the Peanut Gallery on the Howdy Doody TV show. She had a formal upbringing in Long Island, N.Y., and attended a convent boarding school in Pennsylvania.
But she didn't go to college and considers herself mostly self-taught.
"I'm not an academic person. I like to find who's really good at something and then study with that person," she says.
In her younger years in New York, she gave piano lessons, was assistant to a radio station president, played in various ensembles and co-founded The Lines, a post-punk group that took its name from the clothes lines in the drummer's back yard.
The Lines were a modest success, scoring a single and rubbing shoulders with the likes of The Ramones on the concert tour circuit.
In addition to writing and producing, Whittlesey also judges music as a Grammy Awards voter. Every fall, the recording academy mails her a thick paperback book with thousands of artists who are recommended for nomination by academy members. Members then choose five finalists in each category in which they have the expertise to vote.
The Naughty by Nature album was recommended last year but wasn't one of the five finalists.
Whittlesey takes her Grammy duties seriously. She gets many complimentary CDs in the mail from artists seeking nominations and although she rarely nominates, she votes in many categories after giving the nominated recordings a careful review.
"You have to listen to them, and not just once," she says.
Her picks this year include "Kid A" by Radiohead as Album of the Year, R&B singer Jill Scott as Best New Artist and "Bach: Goldberg Variations," performed by Perahia, as Best Classical Album.
She won't vote in some categories such as Best Album Notes or Spoken Word Recording for Children, because, she says, "I'm not qualified to vote in all categories."
She is not very interested in going to the Grammys and usually gives her tickets to family members. Nor is she inclined to watch the Grammys on TV, although this year, her friend Les Paul, the legendary guitarist and technology innovator, is an honoree.
She doesn't feel compelled to find out the winners on Grammy Night.
"I'll read it the next morning," she says.

What do you think of when you hear the name Nothing but Funk?
Exactly: funky, rocking and guaranteed to blow you off the dancefloor. The moment Bert Habets (NL) came into possession of a radio he became addicted to music, dancemusic specifically. He started DJ-ing at the age of 14 and from then, things really evolved! With his energetic, funky sound (a variation of styles such as funky house, tech-house and deephouse) he got booked by organizations such as Red Bull Holland and Buro Pinkpop (well-known from the oldest music festival of Holland 'Pinkpop').

again, i'm hyperventilating over Joan's flawfree look in Della.
just ignore me.
Seriously, I cannot think of any word that would be good enough to describe how endlessly beautiful Joan is in 'Della'. Seriously.
Did you know that all the jewelry worn by Joan in this film was her OWN? Dammit, I will never be rich enough to afford such gorgeous things!
but i'm watching 'Della' again, as you might have noticed. and:
1. Diane Baker should be Joan's and Clark Gable's child in real life, she would be so perfect! O___________________O
2. Hello PLAYBOY MANSION! I noticed this house that is seen here (outdoors) was Hefner's a long time before, but I always forgot to get excited about it. Now I can :D
Joan looked just PERFECT in 'Della'. I can't find words to describe how elegant, distinguished and JUST PERFECT she was in it.

PISCATAWAY, N.J. (May 3, 2013) – The Rutgers softball team faces Pittsburgh this weekend at the RU Softball Complex in a pivotal BIG EAST series. RU and Pitt are two of eight teams fighting for the final four qualifying spots for the BIG EAST Championships, set for May 9-11 in Tampa, Fla.
The series begins on Saturday, May 4 with a doubleheader. Game times are set for noon and 2 p.m., as the Scarlet Knights will honor their four graduating seniors – Ashley Bragg (Middletown, Del.), Jennifer Harabedian (Flemington, N.J.), Abbey Houston (New Egypt, N.J.) and Kaci Madden (Saratoga, N.Y.) – prior to the first contest of the afternoon.
The series finale will be played on Sunday at the RU Softball Complex, beginning at noon. RVision, presented by AT&T, will broadcast the contest live on scarletknights.com. Danny Breslauer will be on the play-by-play call.
The Scarlet Knights (29-24, 7-12) currently hold onto the eighth and final qualifying spot for the BIG EAST Championships, as they seek their fourth consecutive bid to the conference tournament. Pitt (17-28, 6-13) enters the series tied for 10th with Seton Hall (19-28, 6-12) in the conference standings. Both are behind Connecticut (25-25, 7-12), which is currently ninth, since RU owns the series tiebreaker after taking two of three games from the Huskies earlier this season.
RU has outscored the opposition, 20-2, in its last three contests, as the Scarlet Knights enter on a three-game winning streak. The squad shutout Lafayette, 15-0, in two games on Wednesday, May 1, in its final non-conference meetings of the season. Harabedian continues to swing a hot bat, as the second baseman is hitting .433 (13-30) is the Scarlet Knights' last 10 games.
The Panthers enter the critical series after splitting a midweek doubleheader with Providence (22-25-1, 8-11) on Wednesday. By taking one of two, Pitt put itself in a better position to reach the BIG EAST Championships, as Providence ascended to sixth place with a victory.
Leading Pitt from the plate is Tori Nirschl, who owns a .331 batting average in 45 games played this season. Her 11 home runs and .662 slugging percentage are good for fourth and ninth, respectively, in the league.
Savannah King aces the Panthers' staff, boasting a 3.79 ERA and 8-15 record this season.

|General David Petraeus shakes hands with his biographer, Paula Broadwell. (ISAF via Reuters)
It's hard to believe that President Obama's re-election last week—and the looming fiscal cliff of next month—have been eclipsed by news of the CIA director's affair with his biographer. People in Washington have affairs all the time, so what's the big deal with Gen. David Petraeus' relationship with journalist Paula Broadwell?
Some people may be focused on the immorality of betraying someone you've been married to for 38 years, while others may be enjoying the spectacle of seeing a powerful Washington insider humiliated. But aside from the affair, another big story concerns what national security secrets the director of the CIA told his girlfriend. Worse, how did that girlfriend illegally manage to remove documents from secure government buildings as she's admitted to the FBI? The President, Congress, and a lot of the American people must be wondering about Petraeus' judgment and how he could get himself into such a position.
People also want to know if there were any kind of "pillow talk" between Petraeus and Broadwell. Broadwell is a journalist with security clearance, so it's likely she would be interested in inside information that Petraeus might provide.
And what was Broadwell's real motivation for having the affair? Petraeus himself might be wondering if Broadwell were more interested in him or the information he could provide. Jill Kelley, the woman in Tampa that Broadwell threatened, was also a friend to Petraeus. Broadwell's threats may have been motivated by jealousy over their relationship, or maybe the fact that Kelley was an insider who also may have had access to classified information.
At this point, the media's focus on the Petraeus affair has moved from cheating on your wife to telling your girlfriend national security secrets. But even as the scandal seems to widen everyday, we haven't yet heard a clarifying statement from Petraeus or Broadwell.
"I found out that everybody talks, everybody talks, everybody talks" goes the Neon Trees' song that's a hit right now. When Broadwell finally does talk, she has at least three things to explain: her affair with the director of the CIA, how she happened to take those documents, and what she's planning to do with any secrets she collected during the affair.

Dancing with the Stars Week 5: Dancing Through Tragedy Together
Written on April 18, 2013 at 2:30 pm , by FITNESS Editors
Written by Karina Smirnoff
I want to start this blog by sending my prayers to all the innocent people directly affected by the senseless violence in Boston. My condolences to the families who lost loved ones. It is devastating to hear the stories and see the pictures. Through all the horrific stories I found inspiration in several others and was reminded of how strong the human spirit is. Martin Richard's message of spreading love and not hate or violence is one I will continue to be inspired by.
Going into Monday's show on the heels of such an unfathomable situation was extremely hard. I'm thankful ABC and DWTS decided to move forward with the episode, as all of the dancers and celebrity partners wanted to dedicate the night to each and every one of you. We are extremely blessed to do what we love and hopefully by putting our passion to work, we were able to transmit that love into your homes.
Given that Jacoby and I had the Jive we needed to channel that inspiration and positivity into our performance. We had such a great week of preparation that I knew he was going to deliver. However, he never ceases to amaze me! His musicality, timing, strength, charm and commitment are incredible. When he said he was going to jump over my head without touching me, I thought he was nuts! After he did it, I was shocked. When he did it over and over I was convinced that what I was starting to realize was true – the sky is truly the limit for Jacoby Jones! Read more

Dancing with the Stars Week 4: The Dance That Works Your Core
Written on April 9, 2013 at 3:40 pm , by FITNESS Editors
Think dancing's not a workout? Think again. This week, celebrity guest blogger Karina Smirnoff talks about the added perks of the Fox Trot, and pushing past mental blocks.
Written by Karina Smirnoff
After last week's sexy, emotionally charged Rumba I was eager to tackle the Fox Trot. We had a really special theme, which was "My Most Memorable Year" and Jacoby's couldn't have been more incredible! As most of you now know, Jacoby has a beautiful baby boy, Jacoby Jones Jr. and despite winning the Super Bowl, he was the obvious highlight of 2012.
The song we danced to was Rodney Atkins "Watching You", which is extremely sentimental for JJ. Never knowing his own father, he has vowed to do all the things he never got to experience with his own dad. It was so fun to watch Jacoby with his son! He's so sweet and gentle yet can make his little boy laugh with ease. It was great to spend time with them and really helped to inspire this week's dance. Read more

Dancing with the Stars Week 3: Will Jacoby Be Crowned Prom King?
Written on April 2, 2013 at 4:05 pm , by FITNESS Editors
Jacoby Jones admitted getting kicked out of his actual high school prom last night on Dancing with the Stars, and hopefully he won't get kicked out of a second one tonight! Read on as Karina Smirnoff gives us the scoop on how they prepared for their dance and how the team is doing so far.
Written by Karina Smirnoff
What a week it has been! Unlike previous weeks Jacoby and I stayed in LA, which I think was beneficial since he had to learn both the rumba and the group dance. I was so excited to have rumba and knew that Jacoby would be able to pull off the moves; however I was really impressed by his depth of character and his gracefulness. On our first day of rehearsal for the week, I couldn't believe how well he picked up the movement. We worked hard on the fluidity and rhythm of our hips and on his extensions. We were also really looking forward to going to the DWTS Prom and couldn't wait to share our work with all of you! It's funny, normally I get really nervous before I perform and last night I was extremely calm. I think it's because I trusted that Jacoby would be there to catch me, turn me and move with me. It was certainly a special moment for us.
On top of how well Jacoby danced, I was honored to be able to pay tribute to his high school destroyed by Hurricane Katrina and to all the victims of these tragic natural disasters. I always say that when you dance for something bigger than yourself the connection the audience feels is that much greater. It is definitely a dance I will never forget and we hope it touched all of you. Read more

This week on Dancing with the Stars the contestants stepped up their fancy feet to perform a jazz routine. Below, our guest blogger and dancing pro Karina Smirnoff dishes on the week of training leading up to last night's performances, plus a hilarious Harlem Shake video you need to watch to bust your midday slump.
Written by Karina Smirnoff
There is never a dull moment with Jacoby Jones! This week we traveled to Houston, TX to train. It's been really cool to experience the various places around the country that mean so much to him. I love learning more about where he's come from and what he's gone through, it all helps when putting together the vision for each of the dances.
This week, we had Jazz, which is one of the new styles DWTS has added this season. I was really excited about incorporating the roots of jazz into this piece. However, I also realized that this week we needed to put more time into rehearsals, since Jacoby's recovery from knee surgery had kept us back a bit leading up to the premiere. Jacoby and I are both competitors and want to improve from week to week. We also wanted the judges to see us improve in areas they had previously critiqued. Read more

Kicking Off Dancing With the Stars Season 16 with Karina Smirnoff
Written on March 19, 2013 at 1:39 pm , by FITNESS Editors
Last night, a new batch of stars put on their dancing shoes to do the Cha Cha and Foxtrot on Dancing With the Stars, Season 16. We can't get enough of the glittery costumes and fancy footwork, so we're even more excited to have pro Karina Smirnoff recap each episode here on The Fit Stop every Tuesday! Check out her thoughts on last night's show and get behind-the-scenes info and her fitness tips below.
Written by Karina Smirnoff
Hey guys! Thank you for tuning in last night and for reading my new Fitness blog! I can't wait to share all the behind the scenes fun as well as give you some of my favorite health/fitness and nutrition tips!
I am extremely excited to have such an athletic, charming and hardworking partner in Jacoby. I can't wait to dance more with him this season! As most of you know, training and rehearsing for a dance is extremely challenging both physically and mentally. This coupled with the fact we only had a solid week to prep made us have to fast track what is normally 3+ weeks to rehearse. Jacoby had to get knee surgery after winning the Super Bowl and his team of doctors had to clear him to dance. You can imagine my anticipation when we finally got the good news! PHEW! Even though time wasn't on our side, we dug in and gave it our all.
I was thrilled to see how well Jacoby moved his body and especially those hips! Wow those hips can move! I had been doing a lot of visual "training", where he watched me marking the dance and showing him what was to be expected. I think that really helped because once we finally started dancing Jacoby's Cha Cha was pretty impressive. I have to admit, I got excited!
Rehearsals and training for this show and/or any competitive dance is a lot like training for a marathon, you need a good amount of stamina and you have to be focused, so this week in rehearsals I wanted to not only focus on stamina, but also his movement, lines and getting his footwork right. Even though we didn't have the same amount of time as everyone, I knew we had to stay on track and focus, which helped us to get quite a bit accomplished. Read more

UFC featherweight fighter Mark Hominick, who started in the sport with Georges St-Pierre in the TKO promotion in Montreal and moved on to the WEC, announced his retirement tonight on UFC Tonight.
Hominick is best known for giving featherweight champion Jose Aldo Jr. his toughest fight in recent years, on the April 30, 2011, show at Rogers Centre in Toronto.
He cited his family, with a daughter on the way, that wouldn't allow him to devote the kind of time needed to train for this level of fighting as his reason for retiring.

Shark tooth
A shark tooth is one of the numerous teeth of a shark. Sharks continually shed their teeth, and some Carcharhiniformes shed approximately 35,000 teeth in a lifetime. In some geological formations, shark's teeth are a common fossil. These fossils can be analyzed for information on shark evolution and biology, especially because the teeth are often the only part of the shark to be fossilized, in fact fossil teeth comprise much of the fossil record of the Elasmobranchii, extending back hundreds of millions of years.
The most ancient types of sharks date back to 450 million years ago, during the Late Ordovician period, and they are mostly known from their fossilised teeth. The most commonly found fossil shark's teeth are, however, from the Cenozoic (the last 66 million years).
The shape of sharks' teeth vary according to their diet; those species that feed on mollusks and crustaceans have dense flattened teeth for crushing, those that feed on fish have needle-like teeth for gripping, and those that feed on larger prey such as mammals have pointed lower teeth for gripping and triangular upper teeth with serrated edges for cutting. The teeth of plankton-feeders such as the basking shark are greatly reduced and non-functional.[1]
In taxonomy, shark teeth are counted as follows: rows of teeth are counted along the line of the jaw, while series of teeth are counted from the front of the jaw inward. A single tooth row includes one or more functional teeth at the front of the jaw, and multiple replacement teeth behind this.[2] For example, the jaws of a bull shark can have 50 rows of teeth in 7 series, with the outermost series functional. The small teeth at the symphysis, where the two halves of the jaw meet, are usually counted separately from the main teeth on either side.
History of discovery[edit]
The oldest known records of fossilized shark teeth are by Pliny the Elder who believed that these triangular objects fell from the sky during lunar eclipses.
According to Renaissance accounts, large, triangular fossil teeth often found embedded in rocky formations were believed to be petrified tongues of dragons and snakes and so were referred to as "tongue stones" or "glossopetrae", Glossopetrae were commonly thought to be a remedy or cure for various poisons and toxins. They were used in the treatment of snake bites. Due to this ingrained belief, many noblemen and royalty wore these "tongue stones" pendants or kept them in their pockets as good-luck charms.
This interpretation was corrected in 1611 by the Italian naturalist Fabio Colonna, who recognized them as ancient shark teeth, and, in 1667, by the Danish naturalist Nicolaus Steno, who discussed their composition and famously produced a depiction of a shark's head bearing such teeth.[3] He mentioned his findings in a book, The Head of a Shark Dissected, which also contained an illustration of a C. megalodon tooth, previously considered to be a tongue stone.[4]
Transitional teeth[edit]
As one species evolves into another, its teeth may become difficult to classify, exhibiting characteristics of both species. For example, teeth from Carcharocles auriculatus as it evolved into C. angustidens, are difficult to definitively identify as coming from either species.
A commonly referred to transition is the evolution of Isurus hastalis, the Extinct Giant Mako, into the Great White shark, Carcharodon carcharias. There exist teeth which are believed to represent the transition between the two species. These teeth, from Carcharodon sp. are characterised by the wider, flatter crowns of the Extinct Giant Mako. However, they also exhibit partial, fading serrations which are more pronounced near the root, and disappear towards the tip of the tooth - serrations being found in Great Whites but not Extinct Giant Makos.
Megalodon teeth[edit]
C. megalodon teeth are the largest of any shark, extinct or living, and are among the most sought after types of shark teeth in the world. This shark lived during the late Oligocene epoch and Neogene period, roughly about 28 to 1.5 million years ago. The smallest teeth are only 1.2 cm (0.5 in) in maximum height, while the largest teeth are in excess of 17.7 cm (7.0 in) in maximum height. These teeth are in extremely high demand by collectors and private investors, and they can fetch steep prices.
Shark teeth cannot be collected from just any type of rock. Any fossils, including fossil shark teeth, are preserved in sedimentary rocks. Shark teeth are most commonly found between Upper Cretaceous and Tertiary periods.[5] Fossilized shark teeth can often be found in or near river bed banks, sand pits, and beaches. These teeth are typically worn, because they were frequently moved and redeposited in different areas repeatedly before settling down.[5] Other locations, however, yield perfect teeth that were hardly moved during the ages. These teeth are typically fragile, and great care should be taken while excavating them.[5] Phosphate pits, containing mostly fossil bones and teeth, or kaolin pits, are ideal places to look for fossil shark teeth. One of the most notable phosphate mines is in Central Florida, Polk County, and is known as Bone Valley. Near New Caledonia, up until the practice was banned, fishermen and commercial vessels used to dredge the sea floor for megalodon teeth.
Tool use by humans[edit]
In Oceania and America, shark teeth were commonly used for tools, especially on weapons such as clubs and daggers, but also as blades to carve wood and as tools for food preparation. For example, various weapons edged with shark teeth were used by the Native Hawaiians (see example here[6]), who called them leiomano.[7] Some types were reserved for royalty.[8] The Guaitaca (Weittaka) of coastal Brazil tipped their arrows with shark teeth.[9] The remains of shark tooth-edged weapons, as well as chert replicas of shark teeth, have been found in the Cahokia mounds of the upper Mississippi River valley, more than 1,000 km (620 mi) from the ocean.[10] It is reported that the rongorongo tablets of Easter Island were first shaped and then inscribed using a hafted shark tooth.[11]

Law enforcement agencies in Shelby County are becoming increasingly concerned about drivers who are still in their stranded vehicles.
The Sheriff's Office said deputies will be transporting as many as possible to shelters for the night. However, due to the number of people that are stranded and the fact that roads in some areas are impassable, stranded drivers need to take the following actions:1. Make sure someone knows where you are.2. Create a plan for your own safety.3. Take note of possible locations to shelter until you can be taken to a warming shelter.4. Are there occupied homes nearby that may offer warmth?5. Are there businesses that may offer warmth?6. Is there a church nearby that will offer warmth?7. Staying in a parked car with the engine running poses a risk of carbon monoxide poisoning and knocking on a strangers door may be safer.8. Notify a loved one of where you are sheltering with address and name of others there.Click here to see a list of shelters open across the area.

text: The best was saved for last on a very successful opening day at the WIAA Girls State Basketball tournament hosted for the first time by the Resch Center. Colfax defeated the Prairie School 42-42 in the tightest game of the first two sessions. The Vikings advance to the Division 4 title game against Algoma on Saturday. The game was tied five times with five lead changes, the last with 1:54 to play on a free throw by Ryleigh Prochnow. Two more throws built the lead to 3 and Prairie missed a game tying three in the closing seconds but threw in a put back at the horn for the final margin. Colfax (26-1) was led by Braana Steen with 16 points and 11 rebounds. The Prairie School (24-3) was led by All State candidate Gabrielle Ortiz with 15 points but the Division 1 recruit struggled from the floor hitting just 6 of 23 shots. Colfax advances to their first title game on their third trip to state. The WIAA released attendance figures for Thursday's Division 5 and 4 semifinals and the 8440 fans far surpassed the 6242 who attended last year at the Kohl Center.

Yep, those are great ones. Jaipur being a little sweeter. My wife LOVES both on me. Powdery, warm and sweet. Great for Fall and Winter.
Thread: Mont Blanc Presence
This has been compared to Jaipur, and I do smell a resemblance. I'm wondering if they were composed by the same perfumer.
Nevertheless, both are highly recommended by moi.
Yep, those are great ones. Jaipur being a little sweeter. My wife LOVES both on me. Powdery, warm and sweet. Great for Fall and Winter.
Own (and love Jaipur) and have tried MB Presence. Sorry, I don't get much resemblance, except the fact both are sweet. Jaipur is far more superior, especially on middle-dry down, imo.
"I love fragrances because they provide a sheer endless variety: there is a scent for every occasion, mood or feeling. Standing before my collection in the morning matching a perfume to my needs is one of the most enjoyable things in my day". I don't want to miss that
Current Top 12 Spring: | Chanel Allure Blanche | Guerlain Homme Intense | Dior Fahrenheit | Givenchy pour Homme | Carolina Herrera for Men | Narciso Rodriguez Him | T. Mugler A*Men Sunessence | Trussardi Inside | C. Herrera Chic | Azzaro PH | M. Kors Michael for Men | Pal Zileri Sartoriale |
I find them to be very much a like, Jaipur (EDP) being much powdery, richer, denser and smooth with better longevity and sillage.
I think Jaipur is better.
They are not composed by the same perfumer. The nose behind Boucheron - Jaipur is Annick Menardo and the nose behind Mont Blanc - Presence is Corinne Cachen
Agree Jaipur is way better
May blind buy this stuff. I see it cheap in Ross, TJMaxx for around $20 for a 3.4oz. I sniffed Jaipur at Nordstrom and though I thought it smelled good, it wasn't Nordstrom price good.
Own both and like both.
Jaipur (and actually Diesel Zero Plus Masculine too) is spoilt for me by a a white floral accord in the middle that smells like something my grandmother would wear.
Presence is spoilt for me by a overly strong, soapy, scratchy, cheap smelling synthetic musk note that is there from the get go and stays around like the guy at a house party who can't take the hint that the hosts want to clear up and then go to bed. I have to mist this one so that the musk is weakened enough that I can smell the other components.
If I could find a frag that had the cinnamon-cardamom-heliotrope-tonka combo of these two but without the notes that do not agree with me, I would be in hog heaven.
Nothing can actually beat Jaipur Homme EDP in terms of quality, versatility and the beauty of it!

The only purpose for "Climate Warming" hysteria is to usher in global government. And they don't even hide it anymore!
The Bible tells us that the Anti-Christ will rule from the Jewish temple and will be in charge of a one-world government. That's what this "global governance" has to do with prophecy. (Rev 13; Dan. 7:8, 11, 23).
And this was prophesied in Daniel (Daniel 2:33).
With the signing of this treaty, the feet of iron and clay are now complete on the statue in Daniel's dream! Is this the beginning of the tribulation? Time will tell.
Are you ready to meet Christ, the Messiah? Have you made Him Lord and Savior?
Two outcomes, I believe, will be seen.
Either Jesus is coming before tribulation and can show Himself at any moment, or Jesus is coming mid-trib.
I don't know if this is the beginning or not. I don't know if this is the covenant of desolation or not. But it sure is interesting that the Holy Roman Empire is now revived.
Want to learn more about endtime prophecy? Go to http://endtime.com
I am not in any way affiliated with that organization, but they make the most sense to me about prophecy. I don't agree with all of their doctrine with their church affiliation (I'm a non-denominational Christian) but I do believe they teach sound theology in regard to end times.

Inspector Alan Grant of Scotland Yard, recuperating in the hospital, becomes fascinated with the portrait of Richard III that bears no resemblance to the evil hunchback, murderer of the young princes. Could such a noble face actually belong to one of the world's most heinous villains -- one who would murder children to secure the crown? Or was Richard really the victim--slandered by others. Grant determines to find out once and for all, what kind of man Richard III was and who killed the Little Princes in the Tower. This was a fascinating twist on the historical mystery--a definite 5 out of 5.

No truth in advertising.
Laura from Jackson, NJ– Verified Buyer
I ordered these dishes specifically because the listing said they were made in the USA. They are not. They are made in India. They are flimsy and of poor quality already showing small dents. I am going to return them immediately. I will never order from this site again.

Man charged following Orwell pursuitMarch 28,2013Police chase ends
in multiple charges
ORWELL A local man is facing five charges after a high-speed pursuit on Mount Independence Road, according to Vermont State Police.
Police said they arrested Glen A. Tenzer, 45, of Orwell after his car went off the road late Tuesday night.
Police said they initially tried to stop Tenzer after he failed to stop at the intersection of Route 73 and Route 22A. But when the trooper activated his lights, police said, Tenzer sped away.
He was charged with a second offense of drunken driving, gross careless and negligent operation, attempting to elude police, excessive speed and possession of marijuana.
Tenzer was cited to appear in Middlebury criminal court April 15.MORE IN This Just InThe Associated Press Full StoryThe Associated Press Full StoryStaff Report Full Story

Weird thing is that this was mostly finished back in September. I started and finished this before I started working on VG Cats 5.
I like how this shows a more softer side of the relationship between Leo and Aeris. Don't worry though, she'll be a full-on bitch in VG Cats 6. Hope you all find this cute and entertaining despite it being a blatant rip-off of Mr. Ramsoomairs art. Speaking of which, he's releasing books with his Super Effective and VG Cats collection! Isn't that awesome!? I'm getting a hard cover copy sometime soon.
Original comic: http://www.vgcats.com/com ics/?strip_id=290
Update: Thanks for the front page guys! I love you. Also made a few tweaks in the video and added Trey's xmas greetz to the end.

Huh. This was made in 2011 but I read the actual comic for this more recently. I wonder if I originally missed it, or if the animated version was made before the static one? I don't know when the comic for this was made so it could just be that I didn't get around to seeing it until more recently. It's not really the sort of one I would think would be the best candidate to anime though, but what do I know.

Is there a way to add images to the Activity Timeline or to group posts?
I am working on a site conversion for some friends of mine who currently have their site on smearedandsmudged.ning.com to smearedandsmudged.com. I am using WordPress 3.0, BuddyPress and some of the plugins listed here on buddypress.
I would like to know if there is a way to embed pictures within the group conversations, or the activity timeline.
For example if someone is posting about a cake they made in the group for cakes, that in the space of the post they could add a picture and the picture (not a link of the picture) is displayed.
Any advice is much welcomed!

MADISON (WSAU) Wisconsin's murder rate last year was the lowest since 2004. That's according to new figures from the state Office of Justice Assistance. One-hundred-47 people were murdered in the Badger State last year, 38 fewer than in 2007.
There were 2.6-killings for every 100-thousand residents, the lowest in four years. And authorities made arrests in 85-percent of all homicides – the highest in the last five years.
Other violent crimes went down, too. The category that includes murder, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault showed a four-point-six percent drop from 2007. Property crimes like burglary and theft went down by two-and-a-half percent. Wisconsin had 156-thousand of those in 2008, down from 160-thousand the previous year.

Is the United States Bill of Rights out of date?
I will use the first and second amendments as examples.
The second amendment guarantees the right to bear arms. When the bill of rights was created, weaponry was obviously not as advanced as it is now (muskets were the predominant weapon in the American revolutionary war). Did the founding fathers intend the second amendment to protect rocket launchers and assault rifles?
The first amendment guarantees the right to free speech. This has been cited to protect (for example) huge donations and TV advertisements for elections. The politicians become dependent on these advertisements and donations to win. They must appease the companies that fund their campaign, not the people. This process of corruption is protected by the first amendment; the companies say "We're allowed to support who we want to win, right? What are advertisements but speech supporting someone?" The first amendment indirectly leads to politicians being controlled by the corporations who fund their campaigns. The founding fathers did not know this would be the case when they wrote the bill of rights.
Is the United States Bill of Rights out of date? Should it be changed? If so, how will a divided government unite enough to be able to do this?

Sep 6 2013: yes it is. citizens should be able to speak freely as long as they do that to the benefit of the nation. also they should be bear arms in accordance with the guidelines and permits provided by the authorities. after all, isn't the government working for the people? why would anyone want the right to oppose the government? opposing the government or the state is equivalent of opposing the people of the country, which should be a crime at most tolerated, but certainly not approved.
Sep 6 2013: The government is SUPPOSED TO work for the people. That does not mean it always does work for the people in every instance. Only a hardcore, fanatical fascist would make statements like you make. One must never presume that government automatically works for the people. Of course, a fascist would say that protesting against ones own government's warlike actions would be "equivalent of opposing the people of the country, which should be a crime". Fortunately, at least my own country is not (yet) a fascist state, and it is not a crime to oppose the government.
Sep 6 2013: Your point being? At least I'm not and never shall be a lunatic fanatic fascist, myself, who would say such vile, evil, Satanic things like "Opposing the government or the state is equivalent of opposing the people of the country, which should be a crime". You may eagerly wallow in the filth of fascism, but I refuse to.
Fred Lanisake 10+
Sep 8 2013: I'm not sure what country you live in, or how people see and relate to their government there. But I can say that few, if any, Americans see the government as being the equivilent of the people. Back in the years immediately following the American revolution, one of the biggest debates was whether the Federal government should even be allowed to have a standing army. Distrust of the ruling party is a pillar of American thinking. Democracy was commonly considered to be a dangerous idea as well at the time, as it was thought to surely result in mob rule. The founders opted for a constitutional republic with elected representatives instead.
So while the government in the US may be idealisticly by the people and for the people, it is surely not the people. "opposing the government or the state is equivalent of opposing the people of the country" is simply a fallacious statement.
Sep 8 2013: it was back in the day. today, the debate is about whether people should be allowed to carry handguns. obama slogans ooze "we" and "together". healthcare becoming a "right". and a serious debate can be started about how to "tweak" the freedom of speech to serve the society "better".
i claim that you do live in a dreamworld, a past america that does not exist today, and certainly won't exist tomorrow. you live, just like bryan said, a rising fascism, pretty much alike the 30's germany. and just they didn't notice, you don't notice either.
and this is a problem. it is a problem, because the western world is already lost, and america is the last standing bastion of the european idea of freedom. europe has fallen in the second world war, and have not recovered since. and now that last bastion is about to fall.
and then i don't know what's coming.
Sep 8 2013: I don't deny that the US is the next Nazi Germany. The Bill of Rights is codified only as amendments to the US Constitution. On its own it's simply a set of ideals, penned down by a society descended from New World refugees. The US founders didn't fail to see the future that threatened their country, but set forth a code of ideals to prepare for it.
"... God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, and always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive.
If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty.... And what country can preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not warned from time to time, that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms.
The remedy is to set them right as to the facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure."
--Thomas Jefferson
Sep 8 2013: Strong words Krisztian, and sadly, much to the point. I do not agree, however, with the statement that the western world is already lost. Europe despite it's problems (resulting in a growing insignificance) is still in the forefront of progress. Whatever the progress might be, of course. I have some serious doubts whether Asian countries (be it China, India or Japan) could ever go their own way once again. They - for all I know - commited an even more grave error by mindlessly following the western world and accepting its mechanization. A quick comparison of the Japan of yore and that of today (not to mention China, and, God forbid, India!) must lead to the conclusion that the former cultures (before, say, mechanization) were much more superior, even though they lacked the economic power. So, the western world is not lost, but its undergoing a very dynamic process of change. Where it will guide us, we can only guess, but the direction it will take will, for sure, be decisive for the whole world.

The Yavapai County Sheriff's Office has made an arrest in the Christmas 2011 beating of a black man outside a bar in Oak Creek.
61-year-old Marvel Warren was assaulted in the parking lot of the Full Moon Saloon, in the village of Oak Creek, about 2 a.m. Dec. 25, 2011.
The victim told deputies he was leaving the saloon when a young man began yelling racial slurs at him, regarding the fact he had contact with a white female in the bar. Warren's friend tried to intervene and was pushed by the suspect's friend.
The suspect then attacked Warren, knocking him to the ground, and punching him in the face, according to YCSO.
During the barrage, the suspect yelled the "N" word after each blow.
Deputies interviewed witnesses, but many of them "forgot" details and names. Over the next few months, detectives worked diligently to track down other witnesses and re-interview everyone.
YCSO says that some of them began to have better recall, realizing intentional deception could result in criminal charges.
Detectives were eventually able to pin down 25-year-old Logan Spude as the suspect. One year later, on Christmas Day 2012, detectives discovered Spude was already in custody on unrelated charges, being held without bond.
Spude is now facing additional charges of aggravated assault, intentional injury to another, and disorderly conduct.

The old adage goes that without laws there would be chaos? Why do we study law? The answer is very complex. A law is a written document which states that something is illegal and so committing the offense gives someone a consequence. For example, if someone commits murder and ends someone's life then they might face the death penalty or receive a prison sentence.
Studying Law Is Vital to Evolving As a World
The world is an ever changing place so as new trends take place, laws need to change as well. A decade ago, there were no cyber crime laws now there are many laws and statutes regarding this type of law. Experts had to study the types of offenses that were being committed to craft laws to deter them from actions such as cyber stalking, child pornography, and identity theft.
Civil Rights Has Changed the Landscape
The topic of gay marriage and basic civil rights has impacted laws in every state. Members of the legal community study the law and examine case precedents so that they can use them to create new laws. For example, Proposition 8 in the state of California has been debated on both sides of the issue regarding whether or not gay men and women should have the right to marry. The referendum is now before the Supreme Court and they will make a decision as to whether or not the measure is constitutional.
Studying Law Can Change the World
Years ago, there were laws that banned inner racial couples from marrying, allowed segregation to occur, banned women form getting equal pay for equal work and allowed people to own others as slaves. Laws change the world because without them many more people would not have any basic civil rights. People study the current laws and see how they can be expanded to help fix a problem.
Why People Attend Law School
Every year millions of students apply to law school. They do this because they want to learn about different types of law so that they can become lawyers and work on those cases. For example, someone who specializes in family law will probably work with parents who are trying to adopt, dealing with child custody and support issues, or trying to establish guardianship.
Studying the law gives lawyers the ability to help others defend themselves in court, file lawsuits and handle court proceedings. Examining statutes and legal precedents allow lawyers to continue learning about law for their entire careers.

Operations and Supply Chain Management curriculum
Operations and Supply Chain Management is an area of concentration. Different from a major, a concentration lets you focus on an area of special interest within your major. You can complete a concentration in more than one area and within any of our majors. For example, you can earn a Bachelor of Science degree in Management with a concentration in Operations and Supply Chain Management.
Choosing a concentration doesn't mean you will take additional classes. Your major (Industrial Management, Accounting, Management or Economics) requires you to successfully complete 124 credit hours. You will fill some of those hours with electives, or classes that are not required for your major. If you select a concentration, your electives will include classes to fulfill the concentration requirements.
In Operations and Supply Chain Management, your courses focus on strategy, planning, control systems, technology and labor relations. You can also choose more than one concentration. Some classes even count toward two concentrations. Each concentration will require 12 credit hours for Management, Accounting and Economics majors, and 15 credit hours for Industrial Management majors.
Talk with your advisor about your career plans. They can help you decide which major and concentration(s) are right for you. They can also help you find opportunities for leadership and growth through clubs, organizations or study abroad programs.

These Rum & Pineapple cocktails were probably one of the strongest drinks we consumed during our trip! After a night out on the town, we decided to get one more drink in the lobby of the Sheraton New Orleans and couldn't even finish them! We normally drink 3-4-1's in 32oz cups but the bartender decided three shots of rum wouldn't hurt us. When I woke up the next morning, both cocktails were still sitting on the counter. I guess we had enough alcohol for one day!
Had so much fun sipping Hand Grenades on the balcony of Tropical Isle on Bourbon St! Everyone says its the strongest and best drink in New Orleans and I have to agree…it's sweet, sour, and strong at the same time and very easy to drink! Love them 💗

Troy's Take: The Impact of Societal Changes on Falmouth
By: Troy Clarkson, November 18, 2013
The news last week that a convicted sex offender was arrested lurking near the Teaticket School is a stark and troubling reminder of how much our society—and our community—has changed. The events since then, both those related to that event and several I observed in my daily travels throughout town, though, reminded me that our town of Falmouth is still very much a community, close-knit and supportive, united and caring.
After the discovery of the 30-year-old predator through reports of a person smoking in the woods behind the 7-Eleven on Teaticket Highway, across from what used to be Donahue's Grocery Store where my brother worked, newly minted superintendent Bonny Gifford acted swiftly with Police Chief Ed Dunne to reach out to a justifiably concerned public. They provided a truly valuable and precious commodity—information—and turned a potential crisis in public confidence into a local government success story of collaboration and effective outreach.
Those events made me think back to my childhood, growing up in Davisville's Fisherman's Cove in the 1970s. My mom pioneered a program called "Helping Hands," where neighbors displayed a bright orange hand in their window, symbolizing that their home was a safe place for a kid to go if they were lost or in trouble. I remember Falmouth Police Officer Andy Nyari and "Safety Officer" Bob Ronayne pitching this idea as they handed out Halloween collection bags at East Falmouth School under the supportive and kind eye of principal Ray Kenney. We were a community that came together and protected and supported our own.
As I contemplated over the weekend about those incidents and the change they represent in our society (where discussion of predators in our midst has become daily conversation) and in our community (where, like any place in our great nation, the ugly side of psychological disorders and a mental health system that puts people in need of care back on the street in deference to insurance companies) is tangible and reflected in our local challenges, my thoughts turned from lament to optimism as the weekend unfolded. What began as a solemn reflection on the challenges of our society ended as a hopeful reflection on the sense of community and togetherness—the "helping hand" that still envelops our town, our Falmouth.
My mood makeover began on Saturday, as Donna and I were browsing through Hubbard Paint & Wallpaper on Main Street, picking out colors for the walls of our new home. I never knew there were so many shades of white. As we began to sink into an overwhelming sea of cloud white, bright white, sailcloth, and dove white color swatches, a kind face appeared from around the paint samples. We were tentative at first, not sure if this random helper was someone just keeping warm in the store, or was perhaps a heartless interior decorating guerilla, looking to intentionally recommend clashing colors for our living room to feed her own sadistic sense of humor. Nancy August was neither of those. She is actually an accomplished and successful interior designer who not only took time to chat with us about appropriate colors, she actually came to our place on Palmer Avenue, walked around and visited, and gave us some great ideas and suggestions. For the record, we chose sailcloth and super white.
Our encounter with Nancy, who summered in Falmouth her whole life and now enjoys weekends here with her family when she's not helping to beautify interiors in New York, reminded me of the random acts of kindness that still abound within our borders.
After that enjoyable encounter, we headed over to Ideal Floor Covering next to Nedo Puliti's Slice of Italy in the old Hearth 'n Kettle plaza, looking for some tile for the bathroom. The possibilities were as endless as the paint. Luckily, another kind soul appeared to help us out. Owner Mark Woods took time to provide personal service, guiding us to our eventual choice (white). This encounter was not notable because the store owner took time to help a customer; it was noteworthy because this successful entrepreneur, who has launched prosperous stores in Manhattan and the Hamptons, still takes time to interact, converse, and engage with people in his hometown of Falmouth. We chatted about his years of service on the finance committee, and his hopes for better days ahead for the behavior at Town Hall Square. Like Nancy just a few minutes before, Mark reminded me of what's right with Falmouth.
Mark has built a flourishing floor business on the notion—the ideal—that Falmouth is first. I left with a smile—and some new tile, my mood makeover now complete.
Mom's "helping hand" effort from East Falmouth in the '70s may have faded away, but our community still has many people willing to lend one. My faith in our town, in our community, endures.
