Meet Bob Hampton. UCLA graduate in his late 20s, lean and muscular, a skilled painter but perhaps not an especially talented one, he's got one mission: to fly to Paris and enroll in art school at the École des Beaux Arts. To become a great artist, he has to study the masters, doesn't he? To make his mark on the art world, he must experience firsthand dramatic subjects worthy of painting, no? Indeed, to discover his own vision he must first absorb the world-views of the Matisses and Da Vincis who came before him, right? If the only answer to these questions is yes, then Bob is on a one-way collision with his dreams.
Convinced that in Paris he will finally fulfill the command his last UCLA art teacher gave him -- "You must be born again, Mr. Hampton" -- Bob has packed, sold, or exchanged all his worldly possessions. But it's more than money he'll lose if he goes bust on the Left Bank -- it's the entire architecture of his life. Pity the central character of any story with hopes that large and unwieldy. Paris fast drains Bob of his ambition, and he retreats as hastily as he arrived. For in Paris the young artists aspire to study in California, and no one is where he thinks he should be. It's this state of confused desire that opens Carolyn See's latest novel, The Handyman, and sets the stage for a bittersweet journey that takes Bob inward to the true flame of his artistic longing and back out into the world of color and people and geography.
As much a statement on aesthetic principle as a novel of self-exploration, The Handyman sets Bob on the unexplored path toward artistic expression and off the traveled route of following in the masters' well-trod footsteps. The Handyman is a novelist's manifesto on the nature of art and how each writer must work for and trust the tale she's meant to tell, each painter realize and give himself over to the scene he's individually meant to create. Along the way toward learning this lesson, Bob meets a cast of idiosyncratic characters alive with problems and heartaches worse than his own.
Filled with See's trademark wit and the piercing revelations discovered within the everyday that distinguished her memoir, Making History, from so many forgettable others, The Handyman is a lesson in inspiration and a pure joy to read.
Returned from Paris and at loose ends, Bob crashes in a house full of graduate students, the only other souls more lost than he, and sets out on a summer of in-between time. He'll enroll back at the Otis School of Design in the fall and in the meantime make do as a handyman. Like many an aspiring artist or writer, Bob is figuring out that balance between art and paying the rent, between angst-ridden time with the brush and palette and walks out in the city, where the teeming masses know nothing of one man's private obsession. What else can Bob really expect when he puts himself to work with flyers advertising "WHATEVER'S WRONG I CAN FIX IT!" Part of the charm of See's conceit here is that there's actually very little that Bob can fix. Handed a broken lamp by a beautiful young mother anxious to please her developmentally slow son with its repair, Bob dashes out on his lunch break to pay a real repairman to patch it up. After rewiring a dryer, no one is more surprised than Bob when his slapdash job manages to whirl the machine back to life. It's the wrongs that don't require mechanical fixing that Bob is really handy with.
Meandering through the vast neighborhoods of L.A. on calls from people as disparate as they are desperate, Bob steps through the door of the world and finds his home. There's the Landrys, who want him to paint and landscape their pool. Diligent at his work, trying out every color of blue he can mix, affable but sensitive Bob can't help but notice that it's more than the pool that needs attention. Mr. Landry is seldom home -- and when he is, he ignores his sexpot daughter and brooding, gorgeous wife. Bob manages to feed both of them the attention they're starved for even as he answers the call to Jamie, mother of two unmanageable children and their menagerie of bizarre animals. They, too, are neglected by a workaholic father, and Bob is the answer to their domestic prayers. Then there's Hank and Ben, teenaged refugees from the stultifying Midwest for whom L.A. was a dream of freedom short-lived. When Bob answers their call, Ben is so ill that Bob can barely stand to be in his sickroom with him. Hank has been brave to stay with Ben at all, and it's up to Bob to pull it all together. Doing laundry, scouring floors, feeding neglected pets, hosing down mattresses, and setting out the fragile, ailing people of the back side of L.A. into the sun of their own backyards, Bob is the handyman who fixes hearts and homes.
With her light touch, See carves a compelling march toward destiny out of a meandering summer when Bob realizes that being a handyman means filling in where others, namely men, have abandoned their duty. In doing so, he touches flesh to flesh, soul to soul with subjects worth paying attention to, worth learning by heart, literally, in order to paint. As a gift for his bedside, he draws Ben in a throne, magisterial and serene. To propose to the woman he finally falls for, he paints a story of their falling in love, his dusky figure on his knees before her flowing gown. In all of his taking care and mental recording of the people outside his own numbed and sorrowful past, Bob opens his aesthetic sensibility to light and space and color. The reader of The Handyman experiences no less.

Doesn`t matter what pipe you smoke. And guess what, if Holy chooses to box and stay away. Frazier has the wheels an heart to wear him down. Unless of course you want to tell me that Holy was more elusive than Ali and a better boxer ??? If you don`t think Frazier hit hard enough, especially to the body. Tell that to Ali who had to use a cane for week and urinated blood as well after Manila ... Kudos for great points at exactly how Holy would steamroll Frazier !! BTW rocketman, did you happen to miss how a very poor mans Frazier in Bert Cooper almose stopped Holyfield ??? Oops, forgot that one right ? That was a jammed up Cooper who`s body attack wasn`t even remotley close to Frazier`s ...

History Notes on a Brief History of Dead Hands
posted by February 27 at 14:17 PMon
1) One of the 55 British survivors to the Battle of Isandlwana, which happened on 22-1-1879 in KwaZulu-Natal Province of South Africa (20,000 Zulu troops overwhelmed and killed 1,400 British troops), wrote: "[The Zulus] cut everyone up and took his heart out and put it on his breast, and then put his hand right hand [into the hole left by the heart]."
2) After Prince Albert's death on 14-12-1861, Queen Victoria, who deeply loved her husband and outlived him by 40 years, often went to bed holding a plaster cast of Albert's hand.
3) On 7-12-43 BC, the philosopher, speaker, and politician Marcus Tullius Cicero was finally caught and cut down to death by one of his hunters, Herennius. Mark Antony, who ordered the murder and wanted to send a clear message to his other enemies in Rome, had Cicero's head and hands nailed to the speaker's podium in the Senate. (Note: One version of this incident states that Antony had Cicero's tongue and hands nailed to the podium. And another version states that Cicero's head and only his right hand were nailed to the podium. And yet another version claims that Antony's wife, Fulvia, stuck a hairpin into Cicero's tongue.)

Recycling Center Tours
Experience a rare, close-up look at how recyclable items are sorted and baled.
Ever wondered what happens to all the recyclable materials once Raleigh Recycling crews collect them from your recycling bin or cart? Where do they go? What if unacceptable materials got put in? Get your questions answered!
Raleigh Recycling offers free quarterly tours of our recycling contractor's sorting facility. The place where all the materials are taken is called a material recovery facility, usually abbreviated MRF, and pronounced "merf". This is the place where all the materials are sorted - both by people and machines. Once sorted, each type material gets baled and is shipped to a manufacturer to be made into new products.
Quarterly tours include a walk through the sorting floor and are limited to Raleigh residents who are at least 18 years old and in good physical condition. Registration is required. After touring Sonoco Recycling, participants may stay for a guided tour of the Wilders Grove Solid Waste Services Facility, a LEED Platinum-certified site featuring geothermal energy and solar panels.
The next quarterly tour will be announced in July.
Children are welcome to visit Sonoco Recycling's Education Center. Groups of five or more may request a free tour. Tours are never offered on evenings or weekends. Tours must be requested at least two weeks in advance. Contact Amanda Astor to schedule a group tour.

Skip to comments.Bush and the Libby Pardon
Posted on 01/15/2009 7:10:03 AM PST by meandog
As the curtain closes on the presidency of George W. Bush, the one loose end dangling is the pardon of I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby. In 2007 Mr. Libby, Vice President Dick Cheney's chief of staff, was convicted for perjury and obstruction of justice.
Let us be clear about the Bush legacy. After September 11, not a year into Mr. Bush's term, his became a war presidency. George Bush's place in history will turn on what becomes of Iraq and al Qaeda. If Iraq fails, history will mark down the Bush presidency. If by fits and starts Iraq grows into the Middle East's first large, functioning democratic republic, a more likely result, the Bush presidency will be one of the great building blocks of the new century's political order.
In his final press conference Monday, Mr. Bush described the disarray after the airliners slammed into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a Pennsylvania field: "People were hauled in front of Congress and members of Congress were asking questions about, 'How come you didn't know this that or the other?'"
The Bush team righted itself and assembled a tough response to the attack: the assault on the terror strongholds of Afghanistan and the Patriot Act. Then, in astonishingly short order, the political unity of 9/11 dissolved. Mr. Bush and his team found themselves embattled by the opposition party, much of the Beltway press corps and a leaking national-security bureaucracy. The goal of the domestic opposition was to thwart the Bush antiterror policy, or take down the people shaping it.

Mighty big "IFs"
"the one loose end dangling is the pardon of I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby"
Bull. Ramos and Compean deserve it more.
Yeah, Scoot should get a pardon, but Ramos and Compean DESERVE a Medal of Freedom, not jail time.
ABSOLUTELY CORRECT, dynachrome.
"Medal of Freedom"
and we know who just got one of those!
This commentary by Daniel Henninger in the WSJ is not about pardons, it is about crap that led to the attack and conviction of Libby. Libby should not have been convicted. Libby should be pardoned - and for the reasons cited by Henniger.
Sure, Ramos and Compean should be pardoned, but that is not what this commentary is discussing. We here on this forum should understand that.
I left a comment on the article at the site. The moderator there probably won't approve it.
Implies there are no other loose ends. Sloppy writing or....
Mega dittos.
No one else could have done the job Bush did. No one.
Bush is plagued by the McCain pathology. I had a grandfather who reflected this same sickness. He was generous to a fault to strangers and miserly to his family. Bush rewards his political enemies but conflicts his allies. All in the name of compassionate conservatism.
They messed up, bigtime:
Shooting at the felon was not out of order, but they are in jail for LYING about it.
Lying under oath, or in your statements is punishable, often with jail time.
It's a pity they did wrong.
That said, there is NOTHING barring President Bush from pardoning them and recommending re-instating them to their original jobs. Scooter should be released as well. He was guilty only of being in the wrong place when a partisan committee went utterly rogue.
José Alonso Compeán is a former United States Border Patrol Agent, convicted of shooting an unarmed, illegal alien drug smuggler on the United StatesMexico border near El Paso, Texas, on February 17, 2005 and "obstructing justice by willfully defacing the crime scene".
General regulations regarding the submission, consideration and award of pardons are set down in Title 28 of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations, Sections 1.1-1.10. The regulations suggest a five-year waiting period (after conviction or the end of incarceration) before a person becomes eligible to apply for a pardon,
After a long investigation, Justice Department prosecutors determined that Berger only removed classified copies of data stored on hard drives stored in the National Archives, and that no original material was destroyed.[15] Berger eventually pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of unauthorized removal and retention of classified material on April 1, 2005. Berger was fined $50,000 [16], sentenced to serve two years of probation and 100 hours of community service, and stripped of his security clearance for 3 years.[17] Berger also relinquished his license to practice law. [18]
What about the margin notes! You know, those handwritten little "over-the-transom" messages from Tricky Billy that set the unoffical but more important-to-follow-not-for-public-consumption-policy?
Honestly,the misinformation some people try to pass off...
Speaking of which, concerning Ramos & Campean:
(1) they didn't break laws, but adminstrative procedures, and there is some question as to even that.
(2) Sutton moved to suppress vital information about the veracity of his star witness, in a friendly court. This incl. lying to the judge. Why did he feel the need to do that?
(3) unarmed? Prove it! The "victim" managed to cross the border after he was hit, and presented himself several days later. How many days to dump a gun?
There's alot more, if you're really interested in the truth. Go and find it yourself: people always value what they've found themselves more than what's just handed to them.
You really need to find a more accurate source than wikipedia. Try going to the source documents, and your accuracy will improve. Of course, that might impede your purpose...
"Implies there are no other loose ends. Sloppy writing or...."
The Bush administration is one big loose end...
"Ramos and Compean deserve it more"
I second that!
Ditto, re Ramos and Compean.
At his final press conference, Bush virtually wagged his finger at the majority of Americans who adamantly oppose Shamnesty. *He's* angry? Try ME! I'm absolutely furious with Bush and his arrogant stubborn anger. I'm livid regarding what he tried to do to this country vis a vis the illegal aliens, and twice so for his anger towards *us* who opposed him.
The miscarriage of justice regarding Ramos and Compean is glaring, as these two men and their families continue to needlessly suffer. Will Bush do the right thing and show mercy to these brave men, or will he persist in his perverse stubborness?
They are two different matters, you're right. But Scooter is free, and Ramos & Compeon are rotting in prison, in danger every day. It's hard to find the Scooter situation very relevant while the situation continues.
There's no reason Bush can't do both.
"Theres no reason Bush cant do both."
Agreed. If Bush does not pardon Ramos & Compeon he will forever be an enigma with many of us on this website. Pardon them, and his esteem here will rise significantly.
To those people who want to scold me because, "Bush kept us safe all these years". If any of you are employers, I need a job, and I can do much better than 50% job performance.
I'd love to believe otherwise, but I suspect that GWB's stubborness about the border has let hundreds if not a couple of thousand Jihadis setup shop on our soil. From captured documents we've found the Jihadis are targeting our porus border because it makes it easy.
Yes, yes, "thousand" seems an exaggeration, but look at the magnitude of the numbers we're dealing with & remember, when its bad news Gov. under-reports. The pro-amnesty people themselves estimate 20million illegals. What percent is 1k or 2k of that?
Add GWB's need for "bipartisan love" which in this case expressed itself in such PC-ness as ignoring the protests & warnings of danger from other flavors of Islam to cozy up to the most violent form of the religion.
Armed w/WH approval, they've expanded their reach and used WH favor like a club to force compliance from the other sects.
Then there's the "Saudi Express" visa program. When it was exposed, it was temporarily discontinued because of heat from the Citizenry. Now other programs with the same effect have replaced it, and the whole "keep terrorists out" thing had become somewhat of a joke. Unfortunately, that joke's on us.
Anyway, to not go too far afield, I'm of the opinion that if Jihadis can stroll across the border because of actions you've rammed through or executive orders you've signed -- even if the flower doesn't bloom while you're on the job -- its still your fault.
So, I'll wait a few years to credit him with our safety. I think with the changes caused by PEBO, we won't have more than 3yrs before they start to show themselves.
But I pray that those who say "GWB has kept us safe..." are right!
I agree 110% with your post. You know as well as I, that some people on this site state the fact that Bush has kept us safe all these years. Being that they are FRiends, I don't want to attack anyone for that because, truthfully he has. But his bipolarism with the border infuriates me among other things. I'm glad he's gone. I realized when I voted for him twice that he was only a speedbump on the road to socialism, but I had hope. God be with us all.

Maternity Jeans issues
I have the "motherhood" brand full panel jeans. Those fit REALLY nicely towards the end of pregnancy when my belly fills them out..
At this poiny in pregnancy though, I prefer my half panel, elastic band, "old navy" brand jeans,
Married my Love - 03/09
Mom to DD 03/11 and DS 03/13
Thanks for the belly band tip...I'm having the same problem with the full panel Motherhood Maternity jeans. The size smalls are too small for my huge butt, the size mediums are apparently a little too big and always falling down. I always wonder why stores can't make a size "small and a half", because I think that would be perfect for me.
Heart mommy to 4 on 12/1/2012 - 14, 6, 4, 3
Tummy mommy to 1 - 14 months
Big surprise due 9/25!
Working mom to DS (1/26/2011) and DD (4/21/2013).
I have the Motherhood pants with the panel that stays up high on my stomach. I'm 5'9 and it works great. I also have some maternity jeans I bought at Target and I always have to pull them up since they sit low below my pregnant pouch. Motherhood has several different styles and colors. I suggest buying them. They're very comfortable. I feel like I'm wearing sweat pants when I'm wearing them.:)
My maternity jeans that I got from Target have this same problem. They're full panel but seem to be a little lower in the back, and I think that's why they fall a bit. I've been tucking my pants into taller boots and it helps them stay up some, probably because there isn't so much weight pulling them down. I have maternity slacks that I got from Kohls and I LOVE them! They don't move at all and are SO comfortable! They're also full panel.
Before even checking back into this post, I stopped wearing the maternity jeans and am just wearing regular jeans w the Be Band and omg so much better... stupid maternity jeans.. so glad I borrowed them and didn't spend money on them!
Fitness/Natural Birth/Breastfeeding/Sleep Training/Pre&Postnatal Massage/Nutrition/Early Potty-Training (EC)
I love the Gap underbelly jeans. They work much better for me than the over-the-belly jeans.
I think the full belly is the only option. I have 2 pairs that are demi-band with them and the elastic gets folder over within the fabric part of it, so yes, I'm pulling them up al lthe time - 2 different brands. Glad I'm not the only one!

MONTGOMERY, Ala. ---- Last Friday, the Auburn Montgomery women's soccer and women's basketball teams each spent their free time partnering with special education children from Crump Elementary School to participate in Buddy Ball here on AUM's campus.
Members of the women's soccer team each paired with a child, teaching them the basic rules of the game before participating in various relay races at the AUM Soccer Complex.
In all, 14 members of the team took part in the event, which concluded with a scrimmage and the passing out of schedule posters and signed autographs.
"It was certainly a rewarding, enriching moment for our team," head coach Jamey Newsome said. "I think it meant just as much to our players as it did to the students involved. It was nice to have the opportunity to give back to our community."
Women's basketball, meanwhile, partnered up with the kids and guided them through dribbling and shooting drills. After their time on the court, the Warhawks helped the children's teachers distribute lunch and interacted with the students as they ate.
"It was a great opportunity for our players to work with a group of kids who would not typically get the opportunity to attend campus or clinics," assistant coach Haley Rosa said. "Our young ladies did an awesome job engaging the students and had a great time getting to know them and teaching them different skills. It was a very rewarding experience for all of us."
Additional pictures from the event can be found here.

Failure is wonderful. I thank failure because without mistakes I would never be the blogger I am today. I would never have traveled the world or quit my job for good. You might be worried, or anxious, or out and out terrified by failure, or what your blogging future holds. I feel your pain. Honestly. Many of my readers know my background; I struggled horribly to become a successful blogger. My audience? Crickets....and boy were they loud! Every day, crickets and silence. I also had a terrible time trying to build my online businesses through blogging. (53 comments)

Industry News
Jewel Kade Introduces a New Line of Customizable Jewelry and Business Opportunities in Direct Sales
Jewel Kade, a direct sales company specializing in customizable Jewelry and launched in 2008. The company currently has over 2000 consultants and continues to offer new jewelry collections for interested stylists and consumers.
Dec. 13, 2011 - PRLog -- With three great years in direct sales, Jewel Kade has found a comfortable niche in the industry, as JK stylists continue to rise in number. Up and coming direct sales company, Jewel Kade, was founded in 2008 but officially launched in 2009 as a party plan company by Jewelry designer, Janet Kinkade. Having finished a degree in fashion merchandising with years of experience in jewelry design, starting her own jewelry business seemed like the most natural thing to do for Jewel Kade's founder and CEO.
Janet Kinkade has often described her personal style as being highly diverse, inspired by a variety of things from places and people to landmarks and special occasions. The unique, eclectic, and subtle charm of Jewel Kade has been the driving force behind the company's success. "The simplicity and beauty of the product make Jewel Kade an easy, exciting direct sales choice for stylists" Janet Kinkade said in an interview. "It [Jewel Kade] is worn by those who celebrate life, and those who treasure unforgettable accessories"
The company specializes in handcrafted jewelry pieces that include charms and necklaces with customizable pendants and even earrings and bracelets inspired by a variety of trends. Having had only three years in direct sales, Jewel Kade is still a newcomer to the industry but the company, its brand name, and products are no longer strangers to the public. These products have been featured in shows like The Today Show and The Ellen Degeneres Show.
Jewel Kade products are very much inspired by what the company calls "Old World craftsmanship"
As a direct sales jewelry company, Jewel Kade is open to new stylists who are interested in venturing into direct sales to represent the company and its products online and through home parties. Independent stylists can earn personal sales commissions ranging from 25% to 30%. Those who are interested in building a team can sponsor new stylists and earn a portion of their commissionable sales plus team bonuses. Interested stylists may join Jewel Kade by purchasing a starter kit, which comes equipped with all the essentials for launching a Jewel Kade business. The starter kit is available to new consultants for $249 and comes with $600 worth of Jewel Kade products. The kit also comes inclusive of 10 catalogs, a product guide, postcards, order forms, business cards, an accessory kit, and an assortment of Jewel Kade products. The company also offers add-on collections, which can be purchased alongside the starter kit. There are two add-on options; the Executive upgrade, which comes equipped with additional Jewel Kade products valued at $300 but available to stylists for $150 and the Elite Upgrade, which comes with all items available in the Executive upgrade plus exclusive Jewel Kade merchandise and is offered to stylists for $299 with a retail value of $600.
Aside from the starter kit, new stylists can also opt to purchase a personal website, which is renewable each month. Jewel Kade stylist websites are essentially replicated websites of the company's official site but comes with personalized tabs and stylist information. Jewel Kade stylist websites can be used for selling merchandise online, marketing, and for disseminating information to networks. New stylists can also expect to receive 5% of their initial sales in their first week in free jewelry through the company's "Charming Start 7-day Program".
Jewel Kade also employs party-plan marketing and anyone interested can host a JK home party to earn free Jewelry and exclusive hostess rewards. Hostesses can earn 10% of party sales in free jewelry plus 1 host gift for minimum party sales of $250 with 3 individual guest orders. Hostesses who reach party sales of $3000 and at least 3 individual guests orders can earn 25% or $750 of the party's sales in free Jewel Kade jewelry plus five items at half the price off.
Those who are interested to join Jewel Kade as an independent stylist can visit www.jewelkade.com for more information and news about the company and its business opportunity. Consumers can also visit the site to download the latest catalog, browse through the latest collections. You can also watch out for news and updates, as well as search for stylists near their area at http://www.directsalesaid.com

today i am wearing poison cologne...i have a pretty good sense of smell and just two sprays of poison edt vintage overwhelm me...admit that i am wearing only one spray of light cologne but it is...
for me its Nombre Noir though not intentionally. i would wear it everyday if i could but the scarcity requires me to apply economic principles to it :)
i bought 3 bottles..but to be honest i didnt do it to sell for huge markup but instead swap two bottles for Pure Malt and Pure Coffee.. this is my first purchase in the Mugler Pure Series.
we Americans feel frustrated the same way when L'Artisan and Serge Lutens run sales in Europe and exclude us Americans :(
grey flannel
this billionaire has a great taste..even if i become a billionaire, i would still proudly wear givenchy gentleman..it is one of my top ten for sure
nightflight is day scent too like cool water but if you have two fragrances only, i will use cool water during the day and nightflight during the night, especially if i am flying by air :)
i will apply tomorrow..had to go somewhere so wearing dunhill for man :(
someone may be wearing creed virgin island water
please enter me too so that i return the library book and have a permanent book for myself :)
Leesee you could answer a question..i have two also..one bottle which i know for sure is edt..another is mini with about 7.6 ml and it is long lalique made flask with with hearts line...
you have edt or parfum version?
now i am feeling comfortable that it is indeed soft and its not just me..i know Germain Cellier was not the kind to go easy on formulas that's why i expected it to be a bomb like her piguet...

that makes me a winner in this suggestions' contest :) btw, it was a suggestion from a fellow New Yorker ;) so you will be fine !
go for rochas man...it is famous for being a lady-killer
i think 10 or more sprays is too much...my average is 3 sprays but at the maximum 4-5....i have a rule, a scent should only be detectable to those in your private space even though i know some...
found it..disregard my previous post..i think it showed different marketing material on my previous visit
can someone provide me link..i went to the website but cant find there
my favorite citrus is vintage eau sauvage, the most authentic citrus interpretation is eau de guerlain but monsieur balmain is closest to what you are seeking
very generous of you!
no, those testers were mistake..the seller didnt fulfill any order...i was one of the buyers
what a sharp observation..in the little book of perfumes, tania sanchez also says the reformulated eau sauvage is like jo malone lime basil cologne..
my suggestion is to stay away
The Twig is Cacharel Nemo :)
i do recognize some minis by bottle shape but i am 99.9 percent sure that the bottles have been filled with fake stuff...bottles look real but juice doesnt.
bvlgari black and then Vera Wang..Wang is good stuff but Black is artsy
i think he is selling you some fakes..i have some of these and juice color is entirely different..did you notice every bottle has same juice color which can only be extremely unusual coincidence
perfect recommendation..i have many tea-based scents including tea for two but Bvlgari has really mastered the art and Bvlgari Eau Parfumee Extreme is the best tea scent
balafre may be safer choice..phileas comes out too strong
all ungaro's I,II,III vintage versions
from list - l'humaniste
best cheapest fragrance - grey flannel
you are most welcome, glad to be of help!
i think its germaine monteil
yes Hednic , he means the original eau sauvage..vintage versions have concentree written on both the bottle and the box..
love the arabic fonts on the bottle
how can we get a sample :)
i like edt more even though i have both too...edp is sweeter..edt is crisper
tabac blond 2 oz edt splash (vintage)
grey flannel 4 oz splash (made in france version)
Dunhill Blend 30 4.2 oz splash (back-up bottle)
Smells great and awesome design as well.
which is this fragrance (first pic)..hard to read the label on the bottle
i have mini..made in east germany..you got the east germany one?
i will go for hugh parsons blue
great effort, congrats.. i am bookmarking your site..it seems you may only be focusing on Shalimar or covering others, too?
great effort, congrats.. i am bookmarking your site
Brian, did you get this at Bergdorff Goodman NYC?..is the split still open for this one :)
get this, it even impresses French women :)
i have 2 fragrances which have similar container like yours..one is an italian scent (i cant recall name now) and the other one is probably 1930s-1940s era Knize Ten..vintage Knize ten is probably my...
ma griffe is gorgeous. i also own about 1.5oz vintage pure parfum..its truly unique
they rip you off in shipping and handling charges
double vanille
has 89 been discontinued?
whenever i think about cheap but amazing fragrances, i think about Grey Flannel first..but you have to learn to appreciate it
prada amber..you need a formal scent
dunhill desire for men
Nejma Six
Lauder Metropolis Mini Spray
i got Nejma Six today..it is not fruity like others say..more like incensy balmy ..top notes are short lived and it goes real fast into middle notes
Rochas Lui (mindblowing and unique)
L'Occitane Vetyver (my favorite vetyver so far because i do not like pure vetyver interpretations)
Madame Rochas - vintage Parfum de Toilette (beautiful and...

I bought a pair of Herman Survivors and within one week the bottom of the boots split open.I returned to wal mart for an exchange.They gladly replaced them,but the second pair did the same thing within a three week period.I didn't bother to take them back the second time,but I wish I would of.Three or four years ago this same boot didn't crack like they do now.Cheaper material now days.
The boota we bought, Herman Survivors Big Timber II, are very comfortable. The problem is that they only last about 4-5 months. The bottoms on the last 2 pair about broke in half from side to side at the ball of the foot.
I bought a pair of Herman boots & only used them for hunting trips. I loved the fit & they were very comfortable but the bottoms of the boots separated after about 10 hunting trips. And funny thing is it happened on both the left & right boot on the same trip? I don't know if the glue they use finally gave out or what but I was pretty disappointed.
my husband bought a pair of herman survivor boots also.. we had the same problem that others have had with the bottoms of the boots tearing apart.. the same spot on both boots.. After only 3 months of buying them, we are now looking for a new pair... Will not purchase another pair in this brand again!!!!

More on Breyer v. Scalia
I am surprised that no one picked up on this comment by Breyer:
BREYER: I said, "If here I have a human being called a judge in a different country dealing with a similar problem, why don't I read what he says if it's similar enough? Maybe I'll learn something." To which the congressman said, "Fine. Read it. Just don't cite it." (Laughter.) I thought, "All right."
Look, let me be a little bit more frank, that in some of these countries there are institutions, courts that are trying to make their way in societies that didn't used to be democratic, and they are trying to protect human rights, they are trying to protect democracy. They're having a document called a constitution, and they want to be independent judges. And for years people all over the world have cited the Supreme Court, why don't we cite them occasionally? They will then go to some of their legislators and others and say, "See, the Supreme Court of the United States cites us." That might give them a leg up, even if we just say it's an interesting example. So, you see, it shows we read their opinions. That's important. Then he says, "Well, write them a letter." (Laughter.) I thought I wasn't making much headway. He had a point. And the point is the point that Justice Scalia has made. How do we know we can keep this under control? How do we know we cite both side? How do we know we looked for everything? Well, I'd say that kind of a problem arises with any sort of citation. A judge can do what he's supposed to do, or not. And we hope they do what they're supposed to do. Would I try to refer to both sides? Of course I would." (emphasis Tillman's)
Was he [Breyer] advocating a foreign policy for the Supreme Court? What did he mean by a leg up? A leg up on whom? Do we get to debate which nations should or should not get noticed by the Supreme Court?
Tillman adds:
Personally, I was not so much astounded by Associate Justice Breyer's statement -- as the lack of any response by his colleague Associate Justice Scalia, the moderator -- Professor Anderson, or any one in the audience. I nearly fell out of my seat. You can write that up too. As I indicate below -- I am not one who is in principle against citing foreign law or authority, even beyond English law (the step-child of Justice Scalia's jurisprudence).

Each week I'll talk about the sport I love, college basketball:
• The NCAA has decided to make a change in recruiting rules. The NCAA will now allow college basketball coaches to have recruiting conversations during summer camps and clinics on campus. The coaches, however, will be restricted from giving recruits campus tours or other benefits that come from official visits. I think that it is fair to have recruiting conversations during camps and clinics.
• John Calipari will simply reload next season at Kentucky. John Wall is gone, but in comes Brandon Knight, one of the top five prospects in America. Think about what Calipari has had in recent years in the backcourt: Derrick Rose, Tyreke Evans, John Wall and, now, Knight! Meanwhile, Enes Kanter, the future Diaper Dandy, must have some academic issues settled, which I hear will be solved. All of you Cats fans can relax now.
• On the heels of a 24-win campaign and an SEC Western Division Championship, Mississippi made a good move by giving coach Andy Kennedy a two-year contract extension through April 2014. He has done a solid job in the competitive SEC.
• I understand why coaches want to see the NCAA tournament expanded to 96 teams -- they feel it would provide additional job security. My friends, there is so much pressure to perform! Recently, a number of coaches with solid track records have been let go. It is all about "What have you done for me lately?" Also, isn't it interesting that school presidents talk about academics, yet winning is still the key? If you don't believe me, check out what happened at Holy Cross. Sean Kearney was fired after one bad season; I bet his kids went to class!
• Firing Dino Gaudio at 61-31 will really have Jeff Bzdelik scrutinized as the new coach at Wake Forest. Bzdelik did not have a great record at Colorado.
• The floodgates have stayed open as the early entry pool into the NBA draft continues to grow. Look at some of the players who jumped in this week: Syracuse junior forward Wes Johnson, Butler forward Gordon Hayward, West Virginia sophomore forward Devin Ebanks, Illinois junior guard Demetri McCamey, New Mexico junior forward Darington Hobson, Baylor forward Ekpe Udoh, North Carolina sophomore forward Ed Davis, Memphis sophomore guard Elliott Williams, Purdue's JaJuan Johnson and E'twaun Moore and Nevada guard Armon Johnson. I am sure that a few players entering the draft will realize they are better off pulling out and returning to school.
• The Mountain West and Missouri Valley Conference will continue their challenge series next season. I like the idea of these competitions as it limits the number of bargain basement goodies and cupcake city games. Among the interesting matchups for next season are BYU at Creighton, New Mexico at Southern Illinois, UNLV at Illinois State, Northern Iowa at TCU and Wichita State at San Diego State.
