Audie Award Nominee, Solo Narration - Female, 2013
At the age of 22, Jennifer Worth left her comfortable home to move into a convent and become a midwife in postwar London's East End slums. The colorful characters she met while delivering babies all over London - from the plucky, warm-hearted nuns with whom she lived to the woman with 24 children who couldn't speak English to the prostitutes and dockers of the city's seedier side - illuminate a fascinating time in history. Beautifully written and utterly moving, Call the Midwife will touch the hearts of anyone who is, and everyone who has, a mother.
©2002 Jennifer Worth (P)2012 HighBridge Company
"A charming tale of deliveries and deliverance." (Kirkus Reviews)
"This is one I didn't want to put down!"
Call the Midwife was a truly gripping book for me. I am interested in birth and so reading about how births were conducted 60 years ago was so fascinating.
Yet, Jennifer Worth's story went far beyond that of the stories of the births she attended. It was the story of her maturing as a nurse and midwife, and of her strongly held notions about what was right and acceptable being challenged. She began her midwifery training at an Anglican convent in the dockland area of London's East End with not much more than disdain for people who were strongly motivated by love of God and called to service because of it. She grew to understand the women who mentored her, and to respect the ones whom she wrote off as just nasty or odd in the beginning. Seeing her dawning understanding of faith was lovely.
She also learned so much from the families of the poor and down trodden of an area so different from what she knew before.
Some of the stories she tells in this book are hilariously funny, and others are completely heartbreaking and painful to read. Worth certainly was a gifted storyteller, reminiscent of James Herriott. I hope the other books she wrote will be released on Audible soon.
Nicola Barber is a competent narrator, and not one who will put me off a book, so I was okay at first. But, I was very surprised; she seemed to really enjoy doing this book, and the characters came alive through her excellent narration. I was very pleased!
I don't think guys should be put of by a book about birthing babies, just as Herriott's books are more about the people than the animals. Give it a go.
"What a lovely story"
entertaining, sweet, educational
The breech birth scene was so intense and exactingly told I could not put this down. In fact the entire book went by too fast. I think people of all ages would enjoy these stories all from the 1950's East End of London
all of it
"Fantastic Book..."
The PBS series was fascinating, the book was better.
To find out one of the boys became one of Lady Di's drivers. Not only ar there wonderful stories of birth, but so much history after WW 2.
It made me smile, with so many stories it told.
Think this book is for all.
"1950's, London Dockyards, Family, Faith"
I enjoyed this book far more than I expected. This is a memoir of a nurse early in her career learning to be a Midwife in the London Dockyards in the 1950's. Her observations of convent and family living conditions are vivid, and the stories are funny, sad, and sometimes downright inspirational. I looked forward to my next chance to listen from the first chapter, with the introduction to Sister Monica Jones.
"A delightful read!"
This is a delightful book and just wonderful to listen to. It is the memoir of a midwife in London of the 1950s. It is hard to believe that before the National Health Service came into being in the late 1940s and made free healthcare available to all, maternity care for the poor was practically non-existent in Britain. But by the mid 1950s nurse midwives were bicycling around the projects of London giving prenatal (the Brits call it antenatal) care and handling home deliveries, or even hospital deliveries for complications. Each story is more delightful or amazing than the others. My only complaint is that I never wanted it to end. The author, an experienced nurse, signs up for midwife training and thinks she is being sent to a hospital but instead it is a community of nuns who lovingly care for their patients and train other nurses to become experienced midwives. Britain was still recovering from the privations of WWII and there was an immense shortage of housing. Poor families lived in incredibly crowded and primitive conditions. Many of the old condemned buildings did not have running water for each flat but were still full of families because there was nowhere to move them. Into this comes all the drama of birth and death and family and money issues and even racial issues (Britian was just beginning to get immigrants of different racial backgrounds). It is just beautifully written, beautifully narrated (the Cockney voices will haunt me) and I cannot recommend it highly enough.
Retired CFO, Army wife, Mom of five, Grandma of six, two sons who served in combat, love to read books that reflect my values and faith, love mysteries, historical, military stories, and books that don't waste my time . . . if it doesn't have an ending that was worth the wait, I'm not a happy camper.
"True Story of Exact Era I Was Born In"
I'm a child of the '50s, but here in the US, not in London, post WWII, a time of great uncertainty for many people. I'm usually drawn to historical fiction, but this audio book with true stories of the convent and midwives who served the poor and impoverished citizens is excellent. It's funny, touching, sad, and gives us a glimpse into a profession and lifestyle that most of us would never have the opportunity to know or understand otherwise. The faith of the catholic nuns, which Jennifer at first found to be strange and meaningless, was one of the sweetest and most profound parts of the story, as Jennifer learned first hand the power of a God that heals . . . a God that HEARS. This book is not preachy, it's very understated on the subject of religion, yet very real. Midwives riding bikes through snow and storms to deliver babies, give insulin shots, care for the elderly. Nuns who are as tough as nails, and as kind as Jesus. I purposely have not yet watched the tv series. I'm ready to see it now. I'm sure it won't hold a candle to the book.
"Excellent writin performed excellently."
I love non-fictional first hand tales like this and this writer was really good.
Sister Monica Joan made me laugh, think and want to cry.
Nicola Barber seemed to have the rare talent of a great voice and an understanding of the material that allows her to read the story with the right emphasis on the right things. Her various accents were brilliant. I would actually choose anther book on the strength of her reading it alone.
Eclectic, avid listener, favorite book is the one currently in ear.
"My favorite this year... but not for all..."
Slices of life as experienced by a young midwife in postwar London slums. Similar to James Herriot books, with feel of Potato Peel Pie Literary Society. However, "real life" is shared and it isn't always pretty. It includes several step by step delivery of babies, the story of how a young girl is drawn into prostitution, ups and downs of married life and child raising, a few babies born with "unexpected" color, some heartbreaking abuse, poverty, adoption and horrors of poor house relief. The only portion which is lewd is during the "entertainment" at the brothel, you know it is coming and a 3 minute fast forward would remove it easily without messing with the plot. Language is clean and although some of the experiences are heartbreaking the whole feeling of the book is the beauty of the cycle of life - aptly named birth, joy and hard times. You will smile a lot!
"One of the Best"
I'm so glad I found this book! Maybe it's because I am a Doula! I loved it. There is one place, in the brothel that was portrayed more graphically then I would prefer. This book should be required reading. It is historical and pertains to life itself. We have SO much in this century and don't always know it. The author's voice was soothing. I disagree with the reviewer who felt she talked in exclamations. She had the voice of a storyteller. I enjoyed listening and was sorry it ended. I watched one of the series and was disappointed. The book is so rich and the video doesn't pick up the characterization, at all.
"More coherent than the television performance"
This book is an exploration of a subject that few in the U.S. have experienced; Post war poverty and living conditions and the use of midwives in home births.
This is a very moving book which will touch most women. It explores the bravery of doing a job that is far out of one's comfort zone and the determination of people who have little materially to persevere and improve not only their own circumstances but also those of the people around them.

ENTERTAINMENT NEWS (CNN) — Tom Cruise has signed on for a fifth "Mission: Impossible" movie.
Paramount and Skydance Productions announced in a press release Tuesday that the 50-year-old actor will return to the franchise as Ethan Hunt, a role he first played in 1996.
Back in 2010, Cruise's involvement with the franchise was less certain. At the time, there was speculation that Jeremy Renner was on tap to lead the fourth "M:I" in an effort to bring in a younger actor who could potentially carry on series.
Renner wasn't opposed to the idea, but Cruise ended up sealing the deal to remain Ethan Hunt, with Renner as his co-star.
The fifth "Mission: Impossible" movie doesn't have a director or a writer yet, but Cruise is on board to produce.
The last "M:I" film, 2011's "Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol" earned $209 million domestically, and almost $700 million worldwide. According to the statement from Paramount, that added up to be Cruise's highest grossing film to date.

A food allergy is an exaggerated immune response triggered by eggs, peanuts, milk, or some other specific food.
Allergy to food
Many people have what is called a food intolerance. This term refers to heartburn, cramps, belly pain, or diarrhea that can occur after they eat foods such as:
A true food allergy is much less common.
Any food can cause an allergic reaction, but a few foods are the main culprits. The most common food allergies are to:
Food additives -- such as dyes, thickeners, and preservatives -- may rarely cause a food allergy or intolerance reaction.
Some people have an allergy syndrome that affects the mouth and tongue after they eat certain fresh fruits and vegetables.
Symptoms usually begin within 2 hours after eating. Rarely, the symptoms may begin hours after eating the food.
If you develop symptoms shortly after eating a certain food, you may have a food allergy. Key symptoms of a food allergy include hives, a hoarse voice, and wheezing.
Other symptoms that may occur include:
Symptoms of mouth (oral) allergy syndrome:
In severe reactions, you may have low blood pressure and blocked airways.
Blood or skin tests are sometimes used to confirm that you have an allergy. A double-blind food challenge is one way to diagnose true food allergies. During this test, you and your health care provider will not know what you are eating.
With elimination diets, you avoid the suspected food until your symptoms disappear. Then you start eating the foods again to see if you develop an allergic reaction.
In provocation (challenge) testing, you eat a small amount of the suspected food under medical supervision. This type of test may cause severe allergic reactions. Challenge testing should only be done by a health care provider.
Never try to cause a reaction or reintroduce a food on your own. These tests should only be done under the guidance of a health care provider -- especially if your first reaction was severe.
The only proven treatment for a food allergy is to avoid the food. Other treatments, including allergy shots and probiotics, have not been proven to help with food allergies.
If your child has a problem with cow's milk formula, your health care provider may suggest trying a soy-based formula or something called an elemental formula, if it is available.
If you suspect that you or your child has a food allergy, see an allergy specialist.
If you have symptoms on only one area of the body (for example, a hive on the chin after eating the food), you may not need any treatment. The symptoms will likely go away in a brief time. Antihistamines may relieve the discomfort. Soothing skin creams can also provide some relief.
Talk to your health care provider if you think you have had an allergic reaction to food, even if it is only a local reaction.
Anyone who has been diagnosed with a food allergy should carry (and know how to use) injectable epinephrine at all times. If you develop any type of serious or whole-body reaction (even hives) after eating the food:
Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network -- www.foodallergy.org
Many children will outgrow their allergy to milk, egg, wheat, and soy by the time they are 5 years old if they avoid that food when they are young. Allergies to peanuts, tree nuts, and shellfish tend to last a lifetime.
Avoiding the offending foods may be easy if the food is uncommon or easy to identify. However, you may need to severely restrict your diet, carefully read all package ingredients, and ask detailed questions when eating away from home.
Anaphylaxis is a severe, whole-body allergic reaction that is life threatening. Although people with oral allergy syndrome rarely have an anaphylactic reaction, they should ask their doctor whether they need to carry injectable epinephrine.
Food allergies can trigger or worsen asthma , eczema , or other disorders.
Breastfeeding may help prevent allergies. Otherwise, there is no known way to prevent food allergies except to delay introducing allergy-causing foods to infants until their gastrointestinal tract has had a chance to mature. The timing for this varies from food to food and from baby to baby.
Once an allergy has developed, carefully avoiding the offending food usually prevents further problems.

I would love to join in, 30 Roses! I've developed an interest in this house, but have never had the opportunity to sample any of their scents.
I was at Nordstrom today and had a wonderful chat with Lyndsay, assistant manager in cosmetics, about the new Jo Malone, Blackberry & Bay, which is definitely growing on me. I find this a calm scent.
Lyndsay generously contributed 10 samples for the purpose of a sample pass and discussion. These are 1.5ml official spray samples. Edit: Each of 10 participants will keep one entire sample. I know many of you don't live near stores selling Malone and may like to try this.
To be in this sample pass, you must have been a member of Basenotes since at least August 1, 2012, and must have made at least 10 posts. Men are also welcome. This is easily a unisex fragrance, not sweet.
USA only, please.
I'm going to set up 5 groups with 2 members each.
As soon as the first 5 people have signed up, I will send packages containing 2 samples to each of the first 5 members.
Each of the first 5 members will keep one spray sample, and mail the second sample to the person after them on the list for their group. Member #2 will keep his sample also.
Let's move this along quickly.
Post reviews or impressions, as you wish.
Postage for each of you to send the samples on to the next person will be only $1.95 to send a bubble mailer first class. (I just slap on 2 one-dollar stamps to avoid waiting in line at the P.O.)
Who's in?
Edit: I now have the names and shipping addresses of the first 5 members.
As more people sign up for the #2 slot, they should PM their names and mailing addresses to the members who will be shipping to them (except that I already gave Genie Jeanie the address for PerfumedLady.)
- - - Updated - - -
Group 1:
1. Genie Jeanie-- received
2. PerfumedLady-- received

I would love to join in, 30 Roses! I've developed an interest in this house, but have never had the opportunity to sample any of their scents.
Great, PM me your name and address.
Maybe I'm overly optimistic about interest in this scent? If there seems to be little interest I'll close the groups after we have 10 members, and then everyone will have one sample to keep and one to mail to the next person.
I think this one really is growing on me...3 stars for now but I find I want to wear it more. It's rather centering.

Penhaligon's Trade Routes Sample Pass-- limited space, sign up now!
I love the description of this scent from Jo Malone's website!
Vibrant. Verdant. New Blackberry & Bay. Inspired by childhood memories of blackberry picking. A burst of deep, tart blackberry juice, blending with the freshness of just-gathered bay and brambly woods. A scent of innocence. An irresistible collection to savour.
My childhood friends & I had many prickled fingers from snitching from a neighbor's bushes.
Give it some time, please. You know how it is with many people having a long(er) weekend, away from home, not having computer access from home, etc. Some people are just nice as they have already been recipients of your kindness in the past sample passes.
True, Twolf. It's a holiday weekend and people are busy.
There's only one scent to test this time, though; in the past we did two Malones per pass. It's not a limited edition and I see lots of samples on eBay, so maybe people think it's not worth the cost of postage to pass it on. But I'll give it some time.
I hope people will feel free to participate no matter how many sample passes they have taken part in before.

People aren't exactly breaking down the doors, lucasai...send me your address and I'll pop one of my 2 personal samples in the mail for you, while keeping the group USA only, at least for now.

Oh no! Keep them! There's no sense sending just this one sample all over the world. Costs of shipping will overprice the sample itself... And I'm not sure if something bad is happening or not but I for the last two weeks I didn't get any parcel from the States and at least one should already arrive, don't know wha to think about it.
It might be slow on our end...I think mail is moving a little slower here than usual. The USPS has financial woes and has been reorganizing, shutting down many local post offices and sorting facilities. I hope your items arrive soon. Waiting can be nerve-wracking.
Penhaligon's Trade Routes Sample Pass-- limited space, sign up now!
In the UK JM did a free sample if you "Liked" them on Facebook, as By Killian do. Did this happen in the US? It might explain the slow response
That's interesting, Alityke. Maybe they did that here too, I don't know.
Many or few, we'll have a little bit of chat about Blackberry & Bay, and I hope anyone who has tried it will feel free to add their impressions, pro or con.
I may not be online so much today-- have some things to do. I'll check in later.
Smelling it now, it occurs to me that Blackberry & Bay is a little like Byredo Pulp, minus the fig. It's also a little like L'Ombre Dans L'Eau, without the aggressive tomato stem note. It's less assertive than either fragrance, lower sillage and longevity.

Twolf is right, think this will fill up now that the holiday weekend is coming to a close. Which is why I'm here to grab my spot! If possible, could I be one of the later testers? I have the giant Weil pass making it's way to me now but if you need me to be one of the first, I will make it work.
Just had Mr.PL play around at the JM counter at Saks last week but missed this one. He seems to like their ideas about layering as much as I do. We need one of those displays in our house!

I got a sample of B&B in the way Alityke mentioned - if any UK basenoters are wanting to to try it, just PM me your adress and I'll send it out to you. It comes in a pretty little card box-holder-thing with the publicity photos on Sample now claimed

Ooooh, this sounds lovely! If there is space, I would love to join in! Thank you for obtaining the samples and providing the opportunity!
I can send to CN after I am done if that works for you 30R.

I've put you in slot 1 for group 4, CN-- thanks kalli but I'm trying to fill the #1 slots first so that the first 5 people can all be testing and posting impressions at the same time. When we get one more person to head group 5, I'll ship.

30 Roses, Twolf is right: I don't know if I can impose anymore on your kindness. But if you do need people to sign up, I would absolutely loved to. Your and Quarry's descriptions made me very intrigued. I do like berry fragrances, but can't stand L'Artisan's Mure at Musk. I am not very good at descriptions or picking notes apart, so it is doubtful I will be very good contributor; but definitely interested I am...
Okay then! We have five groups and I will mail out tomorrow to you 5. Meanwhile we can keep adding group members as they sign up.
Even if you've participated in every sample pass I've ever done; this is a whole new scent, so why not try it?
I've decided to cut the groups back to 2 members each. Each of 10 participants can keep one entire sample and mail the other sample immediately to the person after you (as soon as you have someone listed after you, that is!) This saves me a bit of postage and it will make the group more interesting as we all sniff and post impressions.
We still have 4 slots open.

I'd like to take a sniff if there is still availability, please!
That's fine, Hayven-- please PM your name and mailing address to NDN-01, who will mail to you.
Room for 3 more members.
My husband has begun using the other of my 2 personal samples-- he finds it quite light and needs multiple sprays, and even then complains that it fades too fast. But then, he is used to one spray of Pulp! (Which lasts all day and announces itself to everyone around.) It is true that Blackberry & Bay is light, but I enjoy the gentle wafts of scent.

Mom (age 83 with dementia) walked outdoors and fell today, got herself a big black eye. She had to go to the ER to get a CT scan.
I have to spend overnight with her as she is confused and unsafe on her own. Will probably get the packets mailed tomorrow or Friday at latest. I know, I know...but they were almost ready to mail when I got the call!!

How horrible, 30 Roses!!! Sending big hugs to both ((you)) & ((Mom)).
And no rush - family first!
Thank, Genie Jeanie. Mom slept thought the night, thankfully. I was surprised how comfortable the rollaway bed was and got a decent night's sleep as well.
I spent 2 hours orienting the new caregiver this morning (she had never provided care at Mom's residence before so there was a lot for her to learn.) I have to go back later to take a few more things over-- food etc.-- and I'll later have to orient a new person who will cover Saturday & Sunday, but as of now things have settled down to "minimally disrupted". I can cope with that.
I'll finish packing up the Blackberry & Bay samples and will get them in the mail today.
We still have 3 slots open if anyone else wants to sign up.

Hi 30 Roses,
Sorry to hear about your Mom. I hope everything works out with the new caregivers.
Have I actually read & responded to a sample pass in time to actually join? I would love to be included!

Got my samples today. Will give the scent a full wear tomorrow.
Your sample will go out on Monday, PerfumedLady. Looking forward to see if this novice can get close to what your more-experienced nose detects! Learn, learn, learn for me.
Thank you Genie Jeanie!
I am always learning still, too. I'm excited to be paired with a newer nose, I find much to learn from fresh sniffers. Hard to believe we haven't had you in a group yet, you've fit in so seamlessly here! It's about time! You'll be glad you did this, Malone passes are fun & easy learning. Looking forward to your thoughts on this!
The nose wants what it wants!
Happy Sunday, fellow sniffers! Looks like I'm the first one to sample our scent, so welcome to the New Nose Review.
I must admit I was a bit surprised by my first spritz of Blackberry & Bay. Instead of the sweet berry note I anticipated, I was greeted by a big punch of tart juicy grapefruit! It's so very reminiscent of the opening of my Aqua Allegoria Pamplelune mini, but with a light herbal note as if the stem is still attached. As the dry down begins the blackberry note becomes more prominent. It's not the sweet, finger-staining aroma of the soft ripe fruit, but the slightly tart berry, still firm & reaching for it's prime. Upon dry down it settles into a very refreshing but soothing scent. Light citrus, softly herbal & quite wearable in the summer heat. The only letdown is the scent only lasts for about two hours on me, but I did find myself wanting to reapply. I like it!
Nice review Genie Jeanie! Glad you liked it. Mmm, grapefruit huh? Seems to be the note to use right now..not sure why.

woot woot!!!!
Just an additional little thought...
Though the citrus & berry notes did not have much staying power, I can still notice the faint scent of bay wafting from my wrists this morning!
This is a quick one, just to say that package arrived safely! Thank you 30 Roses for this great opportunity! Quick first impressions:
Just as Genie Jeanie I was surprised profoundly with the blast of grapefruit! So far it is grapefruit, grapefruit, grapefruit and more grapefruit. I will report later as the scent progresses on my skin. But I must say that this grapefruit is very natural smelling, and not as harsh and chemical as in EL Intuition. It is bright and cheerful and I can see why it would be so comforting and uplifting. Still waiting for blackberry...
darkdreams, you are the final member.
Glad to know you got the package safely, whitefluffy.

The generosity was that of the assistant manager who donated the samples-- I hope she has found our thread
It's good to have a full sample to test in this case; Blackberry & Bay is not one of the stronger JM fragrances and you really do need to apply more sprays than you do for, say, Lime, Basil & Mandarin.
Penhaligon's Trade Routes Sample Pass-- limited space, sign up now!
Blackberry and Bay.. lemony-citrus tart berry..woody earthy, dark herbal..going to guess that's the bay..a little vanilla on the dry down? More woody notes. Gets a bit sweet as it dries down. Woods are dry...some florals not sure what. Sweet pea? Wondering if there is rose in this...if it's there..it's very light. Thought I picked up a sweet jasmine note.
Berries are under-ripe at first..a tangy, zingy tart blackberry. Woods, bay and something sweet smooth over the berries. Then a mix of light florals come in. A bit masculine. Clearly unisex. This is a light, refreshing scent. Reminds me of more of a splash than a perfume. There's a bit of a green notes going on...not really a grass but a deeper green...like a green note from a violet or iris but don't believe either is in this scent. Perhaps the green is from cassis/blackcurrant? Florals later become more white and clean. Pretty sure I smelled vetiver in there.
Nothing too complex here..just a fresh, clean, tart, zingy berry woody splash...with a slight bit of sweet on the dry down. Easily wearable for either sex, imo.
Thanks so much for sharing this 30R!

Love your review Kalli! I'm definitely learning here. Think that maybe I need to close out other distractions & just really focus on the scent at hand. Time for another spritz to see what else I can notice.
My first pass & I love the sharing of ideas. I think I'm in deep!!!
Lol..thanks. Some of those I was somewhat sure of..a couple were guesses, haha. I just was trying to figure out what added that sweetness. Vanilla was a guess...though not sure of that. And florals sometimes are hard for me to detect. Rose is kind of a tough one for me..not sure why..maybe I am a bit anosmic to it a little if it's not an in-your-face rose note. And not sure really if it's in there. Though there is a nice, light mix of florals. Not too floral that would distract from the rest of the composition though. I like that the florals are light and not overpowering..not distracting. A good balance of the notes I think. I don't think I smell vanilla on the dry down and it's usually a base note. Don't know what added the sweetness really.

Kalli I thought about vanilla too, though it is not listed on Fragrantica. I thought I imagined it or there is something else that smells like vanilla. The drydown actually reminded me of Deep Red by Hugo Boss.
Ack! I went into this blind without reading previous reviews here or other sites. Should I be taking that into consideration to see if I notice the notes described?? Help me out here ladies.
Madly spritzing more.
Fragrantica, I've noticed, doesn't list all of the notes a good amount of times. Upon reading..lotv was listed..which isn't on Fragrantica..rather it is mentioned on basenotes and other sites. I wouldn't rely solely on Fragrantica.
Genie..it's good to go in blind..to see what you pick up. I think? 30R, what do you think? Then you could go to reviews to see what others smelled or what notes were listed. Kind of comparing..re-sniffing, discovering..
Lotv..I am totally unfamiliar with this note..I didn't pick it up, I normally miss that one.

Seems that I miss a lot of notes right now, because don't know how to discern them. I need a big ol "sniff kit" of notes. But I do know that my nose will determine the slightest molecule of tuberose & say NOOO!
Back on topic.
With a second trial of the Blackberry & Bay I'm having a very different experience. The bay note is a much stronger top note & is trailed by the grapefruit. Maybe I"m subconsciously searching for the bay, as the drydown became my favorite part of the scent. I'm really enjoying this much more than the initial wearing. The grapefruit is definitely there, but comes in with a companion to the mix. I'm liking this much better & find the scent to be very unisex. It's growing on me.
Lol, I feel ya on the tuberose, haha.
Genie Jeanie..at some point maybe you could join in on one of those blind sniffs. They are fun and informative...I learned a bit from that experience-I hope! Lol. Also, places like Surrender to Chance and The Perfumed Court have sample packs focusing on one note. I got a cedar pack off TPC once..though I sure didn't pay 25 dollars for it..they must have raised their prices?
Here are links to both sites:
Anyone know of any other sites that have note discovery sample packs?

Sometimes a fragrance makes an immediate impression on me-- an image, a memory-- and in those cases I tend not to try to deconstruct the notes but just enjoy the whole.
Blackberry & Bay took me immediately to a location that I have never seen in person, only in a movie, but I thought, "That is what it would smell like to be there." It was a place of greenery, neglected by the people who owned the land, gone somewhat wild and very restful. (I will keep the location to myself, however; the impression is subjective and would have no meaning for anyone else.)

I absolutely agree, many times I feel the same way too. However, very few elicit this kind of response and for that they are even more precious. Blackberry & Bay didn't do it for me, but I did enjoyed it very much today. I still can smell the drydown on my skin 7 hours later.
I can see how it would grow on the wearer with each subsequent wear. I still can't shake Deep Red associations, but BB is much nicer, warmer, and more natural than Deep Red. Second time around I could pick up blackberry right away and along with grapefruit it stayed all the way through the drydown. It is not just pleasant - it is comforting and uplifting in a soulful kind of way. I think that from all Jo Malone's I have tried so far, this one would be my favorite. I really love the balance between fresh and sweet, relaxing and energizing. It's a very good fragrance: maybe not an artful piece, but certainly an example of wearable art.
I also want to thank generous assistant manager, from the bottom of my heart - you are a very kind and smart lady

How to prepare your walls for decorating
Walls almost always need some surface preparation before you can start painting. Even brand-new plaster needs sealing. You should fill any cracks and holes and make sure all surfaces are clean, smooth and dry. You can paint over emulsion-painted surfaces that are in good condition, but make certain you strip back or sand off any peeling paint.
Buying guides
Primers buying guide
If you're painting on bare wood, plaster or metal surfaces, you'll get a better result if you use a primer first. It provides a surface which the paint can bond to and stops the paint being absorbed. Find out more what you need and for what surface.

With Detroit in Dire Straits, Mayor Invites Big Thinking
In order to take on the challenges posed by a shrinking population, lost revenue and tight budget, Mayor Bing of Detroit is making an open call for any plans, proposals and theories on how to cure the ailing city.
San Francisco might be the cultural center of the region, but in the technology sector the city has generally played second fiddle to the Silicon Valley. That began to change during the dot-com boom and then again more recently, a new generation of startups is setting up in neighborhoods like SoMa and Potrero Hill. (SPUR discussed the trend in its "year in urbanism" recap.)
When it comes to global sporting events, almost as intense as the competition between star athletes is the competition between cities to play host.
That's because hosting a major international sporting event presents a unique opportunity for a city to redefine its development goals, stimulate investment and boost tourism.
"Residents of Transit-Oriented Development Say 'No' To Transit"
What happens when a neighborhood is transit-ready, but it's residents aren't? Not much, if the community doesn't see the benefit of TOD, argues Kaid Benfield.
"A Miami Beach Event Space. Parking Space, Too"
A parking garage in Miami doubles as an unlikely but sought after event space because of its high-end architecture and stunning views of the city.

Appraising the Cost of Home Solar Power Systems
So, what exactly is concerned in calculating solar panels price? When thinking about solar energy incredibly number of folks know the way the price of solar panel systems is actually measured. Or even, for that matter, do we instantly grasp the connection relating to the price of solar energy and the value of solar energy. We all know that gasoline costs are in dollars per gallon. We likewise are all conscious of roughly how far we'll be capable to drive after investing forty bucks for a tank of gas. In contrast to a tank of gas, the value of which can be consumed pretty considerably instantaneously, solar panels supply their value across a time period of time.
With that thought, the objective of this article is to address two issues: How considerably do solar panels price? and can the value of solar panels outweigh the price?
The preliminary question is directly linked to solar panels price, so we'll cover that initial. Solar photovoltaic (PV) panels (that transform the sun's rays into electrical power) usually are priced in dollars per watt ($/W). Typically there are quite a few details associated with this stage. It can be attainable that you'll hear some folks talk about DC watts vs AC watts. Furthermore they could effectively mention one thing referred to as dollars per watt peak ($/Wp). But the key aspect to try to remember is the fact that, when you determine to purchase a solar power method, you are actually buying the capability or "probable" to generate electrical energy correct now and into the future. Fairly neat, huh?
That being mentioned, how considerably income will you be paying out? What is the out-of-pocket price of a solar PV method?
Thinking about the fact that every single single solar dwelling installation is just a tiny different, the result differs a bit from dwelling to dwelling. And also, taking into consideration that solar rebates and solar tax credits are typically created obtainable at the state and/or nearby degree, the price tag varies relatively from area to area. Know that all US householders with federal cash flow tax liability are capable to consider advantage of a federal solar power tax credit score really worth 30% of method fees. Listed here are a number of beneficial resources for solar power fees:
The Open PV Task, a project of the Nationwide Renewable Power Lab, includes pricing data from solar installers nationwide. The 2010 nationwide regular price tag for solar PV was $7.15 per watt. Not all solar installation businesses participate in this program, hence the numbers aren't unquestionably best. Nevertheless the data supplies a search of how considerably, for example, the common Arizona house owner could be investing ($five.64/W) versus the regular house owner in New Jersey at ($7.64/W).
Sure states mandate solar installers to report the costs for their solar installations and authorities could hold back solar rebates in the event that figures aren't supplied. The finish result is reasonably thorough solar panels price data. Pennsylvania's Sunshine Solar Rebate Program, for example, is reporting an regular charge of $five.32/W for residential solar power projects having a median method capability of eight kilowatts (kW).
If you are not quite certain, opt for a rule of thumb. Any time you are calculating the price of solar panels use a default value of $7.00/W for family solar projects. Even if this figure could possibly not be best, it is a superior ballpark figure to begin. Try to remember that this pre-incentive figure can finish up being diminished by no matter what solar rebates with each other with tax credits made available in your area.
Consider to get at the incredibly least two (ideally three) solar dwelling power price tag quotes from accredited solar installers. In the finish, it's not until you have gotten a definite proposal that you will be capable to know about how considerably solar panels will price for your dwelling.
This youtube video will give you a better idea
As described above, due to the fact just about every and every single project is exceptional, it is rather tricky to make generalizations. Nevertheless, presuming a pre-incentive price of $7.00/W, an regular five-kW method would in all probability have a gross price of $35,000 ($7.00/W * five,000 W = $35,000). Any form of solar rebates are going to reduced this gross price even much more, as would the 30 % federal solar tax credit score.
Does the value presented by solar panels outweigh the price tag tag?
Like the preceding response, this one particular fluctuates from project to project, and area to area. In states that transpire to be "great" for solar, this kind of as New Jersey, Pennsylvania, California, Arizona, Massachusetts Colorado and Hawaii, as effectively as other individuals, a solar panel method pays for itself after as tiny as three to 5 many years and provide reliable, lengthy-term power savings. When it comes to a residential solar power project, you ought to search at the following components, all of which plays a portion in solar panels' return on your investment:
The actual price tag you have to pay for electrical energy. All matters the very same, folks that pay a rather substantial per-kilowatt hour (kWh) price tag for their electrical energy can have the most significant financial payback on their solar dwelling power method.
The solar power incentives obtainable in your location. If you are residing in a state the place you will be capable to promote solar renewable power credits (SRECs), a dwelling solar power method will not just lower your electrical energy bill, it is going to yield revenue above and past utility savings.
The amount of sunshine or "insolation" in your place. Although a great deal of the U.S. receives ample amounts of sunshine to make solar an productive proposition, solar power systems do yield much more energy in sunnier locations.
The very likely influence solar panels ought to have on the value of your dwelling. Ordinarily, solar panels make improvements to a home's really worth and, accordingly lessen its price tag of ownership.
A strong quote will accurately illustrate the yr-after-yr price added benefits associated with a offered method. It will also incorporate a money flow evaluation that offers an anticipated investment recovery time frame and return on investment (ROI).
Naturally, it is your determination, the residence owner, to decide what type of financial payback you want in a dwelling power improvement. Numerous folks are comfy with a 10 yr repayment and fully grasp that a solar panel method will carry on to supply inflation-protected economic savings for as considerably as an added 15 many years following that 10 yr time period. Other styles of householders could want an investment recovery of, possibly, five many years or fewer.
In common, countless new solar energy projects are commonly tremendously cutting homeowners' energy expenses and giving a constructive ROI. The value of solar panels is considerably much more than the upfront solar panels price. To be truthful, then once more, you'll obtain instances in states that nearby solar incentives are weak and/or electrical energy is reasonably inexpensive. Examples incorporate Kentucky, Alabama and Nevada. At present all through these locations, it is tricky to say if the value of solar is increased than the fees. Up towards a 19-yr investment recovery coupled with a return on investment in the lower single digits, an person in Nebraska, to present an example, can be forgiven for their concern.
As solar panels price gets a tiny much more cost-effective every single day, and though an growing number of states are implementing actions to motivate demand for solar energy, you can feel that the value of a dwelling solar power method improves for nearly all residence owners nationwide. In the event that you happen to be fortunate sufficient to be in a state the place the value of solar currently surpasses its price, do not miss out on an incredible opportunity!

quote:without calling a politician a name
quote:Doc Fenton
quote:I doubt that we'd see threads remain if someone called Obama, Hillary, Bush, etc. names like Rex has done.
quote:IMO, if a poster can't discuss issues in a civilized way without calling a politician a name, you don't deserve to post on the Political Board.
quote:Controlling threads on the Political Board
quote:It's pretty spineless to pick on someone like Rex simply because he, as a dissenting voice, is such an easy target. fricking spineless
quote:There is this Request Admin icon you can click on to let us know that something needs to be addressed
quote:why? He created a thread with an insult in the title. The entire purpose of the thread was a troll. If someone else creates a thread and calls Obama a name, I'll RA and make sure to point that out to Admins. I've already stated that it is wrong regardless of who does the name calling. It takes away from the conversation. and, I think it is hilarious how you call me spineless in a thread about hurling insults at people. Nice. And, just so you know, I disagree with almost every poster on the Political Board on almost every single issue. Both Republicans and Democrats alike disgust me. Both parties, and those who enable them by voting and knighting for them, have become evil. I dislike those who say Obama is a Marxist, Bush is an idiot, Sarah Palin is a whore, and Ted Kennedy is a murderer all equally. Both sides, and many in between, are creating a cloud of confusion that disables others to see the real issues that are country faces. I'd like to be able to go to the Political Board without seeing any of the name calling , from either side.
quote:Obama is a Marxist
quote:If you're going to campaign against "name calling," you might as well campaign against describing things. Logically, there is just nowhere to draw the line. The only thing you can fall back upon is the old "well you know it when you see it" line, but when it comes to politics, I really doubt anyone can.
quote:The only way to take the PT board back is to rid it of the infestation of snarky hipster a-holes. If it can just go back to the old way of being filled with good old fashioned rabid frothing-at-the-mouth fights over legitimate issues, then that would make it about 1000 times better than what it is now.
quote:What's wrong with saying that? Come on, man.
quote:And snarkiness and people "being above it all" are among the least of the poliboard's problems.
quote:The posters may even sort of believe in what they're saying, but when they think it's better to just drop sarcasm because it's funny rather than actually stopping to think and make a detailed response, then that's when the board becomes totally trivial and useless.
quote:The gmorgan-esque crusade against "name calling"
quote:Singling out one of the people on this site who already gets 1000x the abuse that the average poster receives
quote:because he is an ideological minority
quote: Calling them names causes anonymity
quote:1- perhaps you don't have the brains to hang

Bryce Harper, slumping since the All-Star break, sat out last night's win.
PHOENIX — It's been a while since we compiled one of these things, looking alternatively at some of the more encouraging and discouraging developments involving the Nationals.
So as the Nats head west following a four-game sweep of the Astros and prepare for a weekend series with the Diamondbacks in advance of a big, three-game showdown with the Giants, let's take a look where certain players on this roster currently stand.
ENCOURAGING: Jordan Zimmermann continues to develop not only into a front-line pitcher for the Nationals but into one of the best pitchers in the National League. With last night's demolition of Houston's lineup — six scoreless innings, 11 strikeouts — Zimmermann improved to 9-6 with a 2.35 ERA (second-best in the NL). Most impressively, he's getting better as the season progresses. Yes, there was a little hiccup last weekend against the Marlins. But even with that one included, Zimmermann is now 6-0 with a 1.47 ERA over his last nine starts. During that span, he's walked only eight batters whileRead more »
