3.1/5 rDev -1.3%
12 oz bottle poured into a pint glass.
A: Pours a cloudy golden copper color. The head is a two finger offwhite color with a rather frothy texture and low retention. On the other hand, it leaves a level of lacing I only see out of IPAs.
S: Aromatically, it does come across like a non-hoppy pine aroma. It's not loaded with spruce, but I do notice it quite well. Other than that, though, it smells like an old IPA with stale hops and generic caramel malts.
T: Firstly, the flavor profile comes across like a generic ESB, hitting the basics of the style (bright fruit presence and weirdly tart caramel malts) without doing them brilliantly...then the wave of piny spruce comes (both from hops and added spruce); and honestly it kind of works, especially on the finish. It's not great, but it's actually quite okay - more than I was expecting.
M: Has a good coarseness to the texture which might be my favorite feature of this brew. The finish and aftertaste are pretty neutral between wet and dry.
O: Nothing wrong with this at all. There's no wow factor or 'zing', but I can't find anything bad with this. I wouldn't purchase this again, but I'd never refuse one.

12 oz bottle. Pours a clear reddish gold with a small off white head that quickly goes to a thin collar.
The aroma is sweet biscuity caramel malts, honey, some fruit and a little spruce that comes out as it warms.
The flavor is sweet bready malts that quickly is dominated by a big spruce bitterness. The mouthfeel is thin to medium bodied and a bit watery.
Overall, interesting one-dimensional spruce beer.

12oz brown bottle with no freshness date.
LOOK: Nearly clear amber, thick two fingers of head
SMELL: Biscuity malt, mild spruce resin, ripe fruit, faint diacetyl
TASTE: Moderate sized body, wet, grainy, grassy, twang of spruce, light hopping, slightly biscuity, dried grass, watery, very dry
Not as complex as I though it would have been, a little out of balance but since the spruce is not that agressive the dryness actually helps in the area ... sadly it leaves the beer a in a lackluster state. A good stepping stone for anyone that has not had a spruced beer before and perhaps even an extreme beer.

Clear honey amber with a frothy beige head that lingers long. Low aroma of corn. Flavors of honey malt, subtle floral hops, sharp bitterness, metallic notes, evenly balanced, piney spruce notes, somewhat subtle but noticeable and a bit reminiscent of cleaning solution. Crisp and dry mouthfeel, somewhat thin. Average beer.

Poured from 12oz bottle into narrow pint glass. Crystal clear gold with a thick foamy head that shrunk to half its size and then stuck around for a bit, leaving some sticky lacing. Smells hoppy and sour. Taste is crisp and clean up front, with a nice pinch finish of hops. Upon exhaling through my nose after my first sip, a faint essence of spruce or pine is noticed. Not outstanding, but easy to drink and tasty.

3.03/5 rDev -3.5%
Medium to slightly bigger off white head settles into a nice lacing above a clear caramel golden colored beer.
Light piney hops mix well with a light caramel malt in an aroma that is quite nice but on the lighter side.
Almost burnt roasted malts dominate the taste with some slight hints of sourish hops skewing the dark malts.
A dryish aftertaste with some burnt like malt tastes staying around on this medium bodied ESB.
This beer has a almost burnt dark malt taste that is just a bit over the top for me, and as it sits it seems to become more prominent and to me less desirable.

Bottle served cold into a goblet.
Deep redish amber color with great clarity. The head is thin but leaves nice lacing behind.
Aroma is sweet and malty with a nice piney spruce undertone.
Flavor is sweet, herbal, and piney with good balance.
Mouthfeel is medium-light in body and well carbonated.
Overall a good ESB but I'm not sure the spruce makes it better than it would be without.

Sampled this beer as part of a Magic Hat mix pack that included #9, Encore, and Heart of Darkness.
Overly herb / pine taste that bites and lingers. My taste in beer, while not deft and refined, is extremely broad and highly tolerant.
And I'm incapable of finishing this beer.

3.13/5 rDev -0.3%
A- pours an orangish-gold color with a small white head that reduces quickly, but leaves a thin layer skimming the top with no lace.
S- toasted grainy malt with some fruity notes
T- some fruity notes follow the nose, grainy malt profile mid-palate, the finish is dry with a little bit of piney hops, perhaps assisted by the spruce. Seems to be lacking more of a malt profile that by would expect of the style.
M- medium-high carbonation, light body, creamy finish. The finish us pleasant but its too carbonated for an ESB.
O- it's pretty clean and easy to drink (except for the high carbonation), but doesn't really drink like an ESB.

Spotted this in the singles section, hoping it's relatively fresh. Fall seasonal... neck has a string of random numbers: K1826 1 1325 556K. According to Freshbeeronly, that's October 18, 2012, with an extra 6 at the end. Huh.
Hazy orange color, one finger of foam, lasting skim that remains unbroken for quite awhile. Spotty lace around the edges of the glass, some visible rising carbonation.
There is a little dry herbal spruce spice in the aftertaste, but it's masked by a general watery soggy grain flavor. As it warms there's some low level crackery malt, but it's pretty mild overall. Light bodied, a little thin. Nothing special, but if you love spruce beers give it a try.

3.1/5 rDev -1.3%
Pours a hazy light copper color with a tight, white head that leaves little bits of lacing.
Smells light fruit notes and some bready malt.
Tastes of the bready malt with some light sweetness. Malts lead off with bread and a little grainy sweetness. The sweetness blends into a little fruitiness. This is in turn ends with a bit of lemon zest.
Mouthfeel is medium-light with a slightly smooth amount of carbonation.
Overall, this is nothing worth mentioning. An overall light profile leaves me bored.

Pours a light orange with and off white head that fades fast. Smell is not very strong but it is mainly the spruce and a sweet malt. The taste starts with the spruce, not overpowering, but still the main focus to the beer. A nice sweet malt starts, but a bitter finish with a dry aftertaste with not much spruce. A nice smooth medium mouthfeel, an easy drinker if you are a fan of the taste. Not something I could have many of, but still a nice beer. Overall a good beer, not overpowering, mostly focuses on the spruce, but a good flavor.

Draft countdown
About the Author
Alex Mayster
Editorial assistant
Recent posts by Alex Mayster
Related Stories
Overview: The 22nd pick in the draft has been used to take a lot of big-name players. Some lived up to the hype better than others, but in the long run PFW found that many of the players taken at No. 22, a draft slot that is held by the Colts this year, were unable to fulfill expectations:
2010: Broncos select Georgia Tech WR Demaryius Thomas
Injuries have limited Thomas' ability to show what he can do. He played in just 10 contests last season, grabbing 8-97-1 in Week Two. But surgery on a torn Achilles tendon in the offseason likely will limit Thomas in '11.
2009: Vikings select Florida WR Percy Harvin
The skill and athleticism haven't been problems, but the migraines have. Harvin has proven to be one of the NFL's top slot receivers and most dangerous returners, but he has had trouble staying on the field consistently.
2008: Cowboys select Arkansas RB Felix Jones
Jones has shown he can be effective but has never developed into an every-down back. He ran for a career-high 800 yards last season but has picked up only seven rushing touchdowns in his three-year career.
2007: Browns select Notre Dame QB Brady Quinn
After holding out to begin his career, Quinn lost the starting job in Cleveland on multiple occasions. He was eventually shipped to the Broncos for RB Peyton Hills, and he has yet to see a snap in Denver.
2006: 49ers select North Carolina State OLB Manny Lawson
The 49ers thought they were getting a consistent, double-digit sacker when they drafted Lawson. He turned out to be a disappointment, tallying just 14½ sacks in his five seasons in San Francisco.
2005: Ravens select Oklahoma WR Mark Clayton
Clayton looked like he turned the corner in his second year in the league, catching 67-939-5, but he was never able to build off that career year. His play tailed off over the next three seasons, and he eventually joined the Rams in '10.
2004: Bills select Tulane QB J.P. Losman
Expected to become the next Jim Kelly, Losman was never able to live up to expectations. His career total of 34 interceptions is one higher than his 33 touchdown passes, and a career passer rating of 75.6 isn't good enough for an NFL starter.
2003: Bears select Florida QB Rex Grossman
Grossman spent six seasons with the Bears, but injuries and a lack of accuracy never allowed him to develop into a star. In 2006, his lone season making all 16 starts for Chicago, he threw 23 touchdown passes and led the Bears to the Super Bowl.
2002: Jets select UAB DE Bryan Thomas
Thomas has had a solid career in his nine seasons with the Jets and has missed just three games in total. He has held up well for his age (31) and has proven to be a solid pass rusher while still being productive against the run.
2001: Giants select Syracuse CB Will Allen
Allen played well for both the Giants and Dolphins in his nine pro seasons, but he has recently hit a wall. His '09 season was cut short by a knee injury, which was followed by a DUI arrest and another knee injury which kept him out in '10.

... or how to say. So I mean the FN user profile now (and not the DiBo profile as in my other thread)
For some reason ... I wanted to fill the profile, and the adventure began. I even succeeded: http://www.forum.nokia.com/Profile/?u=wizard_hu_
Here are some observations:
- it does not like Chrome, all changes are lost, which does not necessarily match with the original intent of the user
- it is not user friendly: for me it was not trivial that it used XHTML, so when I entered R&D I was a bit surprised about the "Short bio field has invalid XHTML." message. Although I knew HTML I simply did not think about it, so it still took me some time to find out what it meant, add &, then recognize that anchor tags could be used for creating links, and also that the <br> needed to be a closed tag because of X-ness
- and the result with this light-gray-on-white looks like some kind of "fine print".

Pass Labs is out in Vegas this week, but you won't find them on the 2013 International CES show floor. Instead, the company is hoarding some of its new products, making them exclusive to visitors of the Venetian. We don't blame them—it's quite the stunning crop!
The company just debuted its Xs Series of amplifiers. To start, the line will include the Xs-300 and the Xs-150. Both are monoblock models, designed to deliver 300 and 150 watts, respectively.
Each one is a beautiful beast, with a double-stacked chassis that has the power supply and current source in one section and the input and main output stage in the other.
Pass Labs has been working on this line for 3 years. During that time, the company developed several new refinements, including adjusting the values for push-pull Class A biasing and the amount of single-ended bias in the output stage. They also increased the single-end bias in the output stage. Other features include sturdy output stage transistors and massive heat sink assemblies.
Pass Labs will start selling the Xs-300 and the Xs-150 sometime in the first quarter of 2013. Each model will be available via authorized Pass Labs dealers for $85,000 and $65,000 per pair, respectively.

PEORIA, Ill. -- Tuesday night, the Peoria City Council gave the green light to developers wanting to build a 3-story, 25-unit apartment complex at Junction City.
The controversial measure produced a close vote with 6 yays, 4 nays.
Neighbors in the area have fought the issue for many months, saying it would decrease property values and quality of life, among other issues.
"We have worked incredibly hard to protect our neighborhood. Protecting one's neighborhood shouldn't be this hard. Our city council should be supporting our neighbors," said Carol Long, a neighbor to the project.
Tom Lighter, attorney for the developers, said, "I submit to you in every respect that this projects conforms with zoning. Every effort has been made to accommodate the neighbors' request."
Several conditions were included in the approved motion, including no access will be allowed to or from the complex onto Humbolt Avenue, and no parking would be allowed along Humbolt.

SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH (CNN) - Students at one high school in Utah better hustle to get to class on time or they will be slapped with a fine.
A new policy went into effect this week at East High School in the Salt Lake City School District.
If a student walks in late, they will be fined $5. But, they also have the choice of serving a half-hour detention instead of paying up.
The principal says they have seen an immediate change in behavior. "What I have noticed as an administrator is that students aren't leaning against walls, they're not stopping and talking," said Paul Sagers, School Principal. "There's not enough time, if they want to be in class."
The principal says teachers have total discretion on whether to issue a citation. He says teachers can give students a break if they have a reasonable excuse. Also, students can appeal.

RADCLIFF, Ky. (WDRB) -- A Hardin County man faces drug charges after nearly three pounds of potent medical marijuana was confiscated from his Radcliff home.
Authorities say it was all part of a drug ring that involved shipping cash through the postal service and shipping in drugs from states like Colorado and California -- where medical marijuana is legal.
Henry Lee Butler Jr. faces charges of trafficking marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia after police seized 2.8 pounds of marijuana, a handgun and roughly $6,000 in cash from his Radcliff home late last month.
Ron Eckart, director of the Greater Hardin County Drug Task Force, says his officers have seen an increase in higher quality marijuana recently. Eckart says the bust at Butler's home was their first involving medical marijuana. Eckart says it's twice as expensive and packs a longer-lasting high with names like "Tangerine Kush" or "Golden Goat."
"We may run across marijuana being shipped from UPS, FedEx or the postal service," Eckart said. "As far as this high-end, high-grade marijuana, it's just recently that we've been running into it," Eckart said.
"It seemed that there were some parcels coming from Colorado, others from California," Eckert said, referring to what officers found in Butler's home.
Authorities say Henry Lee Butler Jr. was having the parcels of drugs shipped to him and then sending out more cash.
"During our search of the home we found a receipt, a letter from the postal service where they had intercepted $14,000," Eckart said.
Eckart said that money was destined for California. A WDRB News reporter stopped by Butler's house, but no one answered the door.
Neighbors seemed surprised to learn of Butler's arrest.
"That's a little disturbing because there's a lot of children in the neighborhood. There's a lot of people that just go to work and come home. That type of deal -- you never know," said Samantha Sturgeon.
This case involved the USPS, but Eckart says he knew the drugs came from out of state because of one distinction. "The price was definitely twice what we were used to seeing. And the quality -- from looking at it you could tell it was a very manicured marijuana buds."
The investigation into where the cash was headed is ongoing, but Eckart said the investigation culminated through a partnership with the Radcliff and Louisville Metro Police Departments.
Butler was scheduled to be arraigned Tuesday, but that was postponed. He's being held on a $75,000 cash bond.

U.S. District Judge Terrence Boyle has scheduled an arraignment Thursday for 29-year-old Basit Sheikh of Cary. He's expected to enter a plea on the criminal charge. Boyle is allowing some government motions to stay secret.
Sheikh was arrested in November at Raleigh-Durham International Airport at the start of what prosecutors say was a trek to fight in Syria's civil war with Jabhat al-Nusra, also called the Nusra Front.
The FBI has been on the lookout for Americans expressing interest in joining the Syrian war, where they could become radicalized by al-Qaida-linked militant groups and return to the U.S. as battle-hardened security risks.

A confident, talented, gorgeous woman isn't as hard to come by these days as she used to be. But to come across a DJ at the top of her game with all of those attributes…well, it's extremely rare! She is not only talented, but she is a very humble, cool, down-to-earth chick. Oh, and she is a SKAM Artist, which is an agency that reps only the best in the world. Ladies and gentlemen, may I introduce you to DJ Jessica Who.
Summer Altice: When did you start deejaying?
Jessica Who: I started eight and a half years ago. I was really young, about to graduate high school.
Altice: What is your favorite style or format to play?
Who: I get really anxious when I'm told a gig is one type of music, like I can't play hip-hop, or it's only commercial house. I feel like I've molded my style based on being able to play things people aren't expecting, whether that is Motown or Merengue. That's where I have the most fun, which translates into the crowd having the most fun. In my opinion, "open format" has come to mean house and hip-hop, or as someone once brilliantly said when I asked the format of a club, "Drake-house." So I guess I'd say my favorite style is anti-format. I love to play really feel-good, fun music, as silly as that may sound, anything that encapsulates that "best night ever" feeling for the crowd is my favorite. But if I had to be specific, I love to play old R&B, hip-hop, oldies, Motown, disco. Stuff you can't always play in a club setting.
Altice: What was your most fun gig recently?
Who: It would have to be between dragon-i in Hong Kong and Pangaea in Singapore. They go really crazy in Asia, and those two clubs both had really good vibes, which allowed me to do things a little differently and still have the crowd right there with me.
Altice: Do you feel the advances in technology have hurt or helped the DJ world?
Who: The dreaded question. I think moderation is the key here, as with most things. Most DJs I know have come to the collective decision that while it has made our lives easier and given us the ability to branch out and play a wider range of music in farther away places, it has also opened a Pandora's box of people who see this as a way to skip all the important steps we took to get here.
I've only been deejaying for a short time in the grand scheme of things, but I did a lot of crappy gigs for no money in order to get where I am now. I think that's a huge part of it, and without that, you have no concept of the value of what you have, and no appreciation for the art of deejaying. I don't mean to sound like your dad with the "value of a dollar" speech, but it's true. Deejaying wasn't a springboard to instant fame when I started. It was a means to be creative and, if you were good at it, to use that gift to give other people a really fun time. That's still what it means for me.
I can only hope that some of the kids who start now with all this new technology are doing what I did, which was learn everything I could about how it started and the people that came before me to mold it into what it has become.
Altice: Do you ever find it hard to get respect as a female DJ?
Who: It's rare. If I do encounter some kind of prejudice based on that, I try not to take it personally. After all, I never considered myself a "female DJ," seeing as I didn't have much of a choice in being female. I just consider myself a DJ. But I'm aware the outside world is going to label you no matter how you see it. As can be expected with all the new technology and advent of the DJ-as-superstar, a lot of the people who have hopped on board the DJ wagon are female. I feel that just like any other new DJs who may not be truly committed, there are a lot of women who may give serious female DJs a bad name.
I've learned to make it into a game to prove people wrong.
I can feel it sometimes when I walk into a new place and start setting up, the resident DJs or staff or crowd will be thinking, "Oh god, a female DJ. This is going to suck," and in all honesty I don't blame them. They've probably had bad experiences. I just start playing and hope that they are pleasantly surprised when they realize I do take it seriously, at which point I can distance myself from any negative stereotypes.
At this point in my career, I feel like I've worked pretty hard. I've been given support and respect from people I've looked up to for years, and that has meant more to me than anything anyone could say about me based on being female.
A confident, talented, gorgeous woman isn't as hard to come by these days as she used to be. But to come across a DJ at the top of her game with all of those attributes…well, it's extremely rare! She is not only talented, but she is a very humble, cool, down-to-earth chick. Oh, and she is a SKAM Artist, which is an agency that reps only the best in the world. Ladies and gentlemen, may I introduce you to DJ Jessica Who.

The holidays have come and gone, and even though cold weather has set in, it's time to get back to some BBQ and grilling. The subject of today's column won't take a ton of work, but the results are unique and delicious. And with the football playoffs starting and the Super Bowl approaching, this sandwich will be sure to make game-day guests smile.
Another great feature of this dish is its affordability. Pork loin is one of the best values out there.
When it's on sale, you can find it at less than $2 per pound. Now that's a deal.
What you will be creating is a smoked pork loin sandwich smothered in cole slaw and white Alabama sauce. We got together with a bunch of friends and did some serious tailgating at an Indianapolis Colts game a few weeks ago. This was the sandwich we served, and unless everyone was lying, it was a great hit. Let's get started.
Set up your grill with indirect heat. Once your coals are 75 percent gray, sprinkle hickory chips on the hot coals. Rub the pork loin down with your favorite pork rub and place on the side of the grill which is not directly over the coals. Open all vents by roughly one half and place the lid on the grill. The loin will be done when the internal temperature hits 135 degrees. Pork loin is lean and it won't take long.
Depending on the size of the loin and the heat of your fire, plan on one to two hours max.
Once the pork is done, pull it off the grill and allow it to rest for 15 minutes or so. Carve the loin into sandwich sized pieces. Place on a sandwich bun and smother with traditional vinegar based cole slaw and white Alabama sauce. If possible, prepare the cole slaw and the sauce the day before. It's especially important with the cole slaw.

Letter: Challenging prevailing ideas on global warming causes
Original post made on Jul 5, 2007
Read the full story here Web Link
on Jul 5, 2007 at 1:33 pm
Interesting. Since Mr. Cohen mentioned the American Geophysical Union I visited that organization's web site and found the following policy statement regarding climate change, which was adopted by the union's council in December 2003: Web Link. The first two paragraphs of that statement follow:
"Human activities are increasingly altering the Earth's climate. These effects add to natural influences that have been present over Earth's history. Scientific evidence strongly indicates that natural influences cannot explain the rapid increase in global near-surface temperatures observed during the second half of the 20th century.
"Human impacts on the climate system include increasing concentrations of atmospheric greenhouse gases (e.g., carbon dioxide, chlorofluorocarbons and their substitutes, methane, nitrous oxide, etc.), air pollution, increasing concentrations of airborne particles, and land alteration. A particular concern is that atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide may be rising faster than at any time in Earth's history, except possibly following rare events like impacts from large extraterrestrial objects."
So, Mr. Cohen, as a genuinely concerned and interested citizen I would ask that you provide links or references to the "wealth of peer-reviewed scientific evidence ... to counter the hype generated by such propaganda as 'An Inconvenient Truth.'" I hear a great deal about this purported wealth of scientific evidence and the surfeit of scientists willing and able to debunk the human/climate change myth, but as with UFOs and Bigfoot I never seem to get a glimpse of either, though not for lack of trying (and I read widely and don't get my news from television). Regards,
Mark Drury

Mr Drury and others:
There are tons of scientists who say the CO2 warming theory is non-sense. A group in Oregon has a petition signed by over 17,000 scientists who say this is non-sense. This, of course, is not going to stop Al Gore. Lets get ourselves into a frenzy and don't let another minute pass before we stop emitting CO2.
Look at:
Web Link
Use Google to find the other side, which is being out shouted by the politicians, who of course know everything. This will all pass soon enough, but not before Menlo Park and other cities spend plenty to achieve nothing.
on Jul 9, 2007 at 10:16 am
I just found another interesting site. It is obviously a right-wing site and information there should be taken with much caution. The same should be said for "An Inconvenient Truth". However, some checking revealed some of their statements to be factual.
Our council should not be so smug by just accepting that the currently popular notions being paraded around are gospel.
Web Link
Look at
Web Link
for the petition which 17000 scientists have signed, disagreeing with the currently popular CO2 warming theory.

With Oklahoma and Texas officially allowed to explore the possibility of leaving the Big 12, the Pac-12 has informed the AP that a vote by the school presidents on whether or not to expand is expected by end of week.
According to conference rules, at least 9 votes will be needed in order to approve the expansion of the conference.
The Texas Longhorns and Oklahoma Sooners have both expressed public interest in leaving the Big 12 and joining the Pac-12. If they were to join, the Texas Tech Red Raiders and Oklahoma State Cowboys would likely come with their in-state rivals in keeping with the set-up of the conference. At that point, the Pac-12 would become the Pac-16.
However, we're still a long ways from that.
There is no guarantee that the conference will approve the measure, especially when it means that some current Pac-12 schools would be moved into a division separate from others. If they were not voted in, and Oklahoma had to go back to the Big 12 after saying it wanted commissioner Dan Beebe to be removed, things could get very interesting.
For more on these schools, check out Texas Longhorns blog Burnt Orange Nation, Oklahoma Sooners blog Crimson And Cream Machine, Oklahoma State blog Cowboys Ride For Free and Texas Tech blog Double T Nation. And Pac-12 blog Pacific Takes.

MANILA, PHILIPPINES -- This is the Manila branch of the "Philippine mermaid swimming academy".
It opened in May.
For around $41, anyone with basic swimming skills can join the two-hour pool sessions.
The idea started with a halloween costume and turned into a creative way to teach children how to swim.
But, the school has attracted students of all ages.
Swimming in a skin-tight suit and mono-fin requires abdominal and leg muscle strength, so the sessions make for a good workout too.

WILMINGTON, NC (WECT) - A professor from UNC Wilmington is joining other university faculty from across the country in proposing a potential solution to the fiscal cliff discussions taking place in Washington D.C.
Cherie Hennig is an associate professor of accountancy at the UNCW Cameron School of Business. Hennig, along with faculty from the University of Colorado, The Ohio State University and Virginia Commonwealth University, are calling for a 34% MAXtax rate on business income as the potential answer.
They are promoting their idea in a publication called "Tax Notes," which is out Monday. "Tax Notes" is produced by Tax Analysts, which is a nonprofit organization that focuses on tax issues.

Jackson Police have made an arrest in the murder of Felisha Spann. The 41-year-old woman was shot in the face and killed in late August. Her body was found off Westhaven Boulevard in Jackson on property owned by the Greater Bethlehem Temple Church.
48-year-old Michael Buck of Jackson has been arrested and charged with the murder. He also faces a domestic violence charge.
Spann's daughter, Felicia Miller, was also murdered in 2010. She was shot in the head inside a room at the Metro Inn on Ellis Avenue.
An arrest was made in Miller's case, but there was not enough evidence to move forward with the case.

Thread: signature scent
what is yours???
^^^^ Same here.
Wearing scent is my signature.
I've trademarked the color bleu
The days of having a signature scent are well in the past. I don't think many people have one.

Cabochard by Gres
Although I wear a different scent every day, this is on I will always have. It's one of my first loves and smells fantastic on me. I'll never be without it!! I realize this is not what you would typically consider a "signature scent" however it's as close to one as I'll ever have.
No single scent can reflect or represent or compliment or whatever my personality... Jicky, Sous le Vent and Tabac Blond currently feel very much like me, although a year ago I would have said 'Tabac Blond' only.
I like to have my cake and eat it too. I consider Habit Rouge my signature scent, but I wear many others often.
HR is the one I always come back to, the one I wear for most important occasions, the one I always have at hand - the one that I feel the most comfortable in.

It used to be T. Mugler Angel, now it's Agent Provocateur.
No, I am not black, yes, I am African.
every bottle I own is my signature.
While I'm just starting and don't have one yet, I look at this question a couple of ways: 1) I agree with the people saying they have different scents for different events, seasons, etc instead of ONE single scent. That's what I'm looking to do as well. 2) I view a "signature" scent being one that can be worn year-round, day or night. It's your "go-to" scent. The one that never leaves your shelf. The one you would want to be wearing when you're buried.....and I would be shocked if most (if not all) of you fragrance veterans don't have a scent like that. 3) I also know from reading, that as we get older and more scent-seasoned, our preferences naturally change...meaning our "signature" scent is forever changing.
So can we maybe alter the question (because I think it's a fun topic) and say this: What's your current "go-to" scent?
"We don't fail because we aim too high and miss, but because we aim too low and hit" - Les Brown
"Sometimes we need to suffer just so we can look at our lives and know we're for real" - Francis Chan
If you can call a scent you only wear once a week a signature scent, then it would be Millesime Imperial by Creed. If I had to choose to wear only one for the rest of my life it would be that one at this point.
None, and, at the same time, more than just one signature scents.
Pretty much, far closer to a "signature rotation", coinciding almost entirely with both the "owned" and the "tested" section in my fragrance wardrobe.
hard to say because my tastes are constantly changing.
I don't have one either, and enjoy wearing different scents based on different moods, seasons, and occasions. But if I had to choose based on a scent being versatile enough to be worn year round in both casual and dressy situations, I would probably go with Bond No 9's Chez Bond or Versace Pour Homme from my wardrobe. To me, these are "no brainers", that u can grab at any time without thought and feel appropriate.
Sometimes I pick a signature scent, but it never lasts for more than a few days. I'm fickle.
I just could not get rid of every fragrance I have to just have that ONE signature scent.
I like to wear fragrances according to my mood on any particular day. It would be difficult to say that I have one signature scent. But, If I had to pick one, that fragrance would most likely be Creed's Avenutus. But don't get me wrong, I adore wearing different scents.
Instead of a signature I have a rotation or go by my mood but if i had to say it would be hugo by hugo boss
For awhile it was Lacoste Pour Homme. It's just too hard to stick with one scent...it get's boring.
I have too many to have a signature scent, but I do have my favorites (below)...
Seasonal favorites:
1. Creed - Pure White Cologne
2. Creed - Aventus
3. Tom Ford - Grey Vetiver
4. by Kilian - Straight to Heaven
5. Clive Christian - 1872
6. Montale - Aoud Legacy
7. Xerjoff - Nio
8. Neela Vermeire - Bombay Bling
9. The Different Company - De Bachmakov
10. Chanel - Allure Homme Edition Blanche
If I had to pick one it would be one of hte following in order of likelihood:
Burqa Eau Fine
Yellow Sea
Memoir Man
***For sale:
Iris Pallida 50ml
Ungaro I 75ml
and more! - http://www.basenotes.net/threads/301...n-Man-and-more
Few years ago Very Irresistible Givenchy, now Chanel Allure edp.
Mirror mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all?
I've never really had one and very likely never will. I like variety far too much when it comes to fragrances. i will say, though, if I were forced to whittle down my collection to bare bones, Creed Green Irish Tweed would definitely be one I'd hold onto.

I know it is pretty late. But just wanted to put in my two small cents here.
The original concept of cloud computing was a utility-like service that would provide a pool of shared resources for clients to use on-demand thereby allowing customers to leverage a large pool of resources without having to bear the burden of the capital cost of building or maintaining the entire infrastructure themselves. In the web hosting world what we refer to as cloud computing sometimes aligns with this original concept, sometimes not so much, depending on the service in question.
All cloud products that are offered as a web hosting service have one thing in common: they are virtualized. "Virtualized" means that your server (whether called an instance, slice or something else by your service provider) is actually a virtualized operating system (kernel) that is referred to as a virtual machine, or VM. The VM is running inside a container system, which is in charge of managing the resources of multiple VMs running alongside yours. There are several products that do this, some of which you may be familiar with some of the more well known products out there are VmWare, VirtualBox, and XEN.

Nice post hostwitus.
Cloud will inevitably be a strong contender in 2012 I believe. For 2011 (now) I think it is too unpolished. With cloud emerging in other markets like Apple with iCloud, Amazon, Google, etc, I think 2012 will be the year you will see decrease in pricing and increase in fit and finish.
For now though, VPS and dedicated servers are still king.

Actually VPS and dedicated servers will still be strong well after clouds go mainstream. A lot of people don't really need the extra strings that come attached with cloud hosting.

Hi: 21° Lo:9°
By Connie Osborne Friday 10 January 2014 Updated: 10/01 16:19
CALLS have been made for Redditch Borough Council to have more control over betting machines labelled the 'crack cocaine' of High Street gambling.
Rebecca Blake, Labour parliamentary spokeswoman for Redditch, is backing her party's bid to give councils the power to limit the number of Fixed Odds Betting Terminal machines in the borough.
Ms Blake said she wanted to pull the plug on the addictive casino style machines which invite bets of up to £100 every 20 seconds. In 2011/12 £26.5million was bet on the borough's 25 high stakes machines.
Labour forced a Parliamentary debate on the issue on Wednesday (January 8) but were defeated by Government MPs, including Redditch's Karen Lumley.
Ms Blake said: "This is another example of the Tory led Government having the wrong priorities.
"We don't want local bookies to be turned into High Street casinos."
But Mrs Lumley said while she had serious concerns about the machines it was premature to decide what action to take ahead of the publication of a government review into the issue next month.
"It wasn't us that introduced these machines," she said.
"These opposition debates are designed to make a political point against the Government on whatever issue it may be which is all very well but what do they achieve? Let's wait for the report, see what the facts and figures are and then it's time to make a decision.
"But I do understand for people who have got an addictive personality or a gambling problem these machines are very dangerous pieces of equipment, it's similar to people going into pubs and getting 50p pints of beer."
But Dirk Vennix, chief executive of the Association of British Bookmakers, said the move would not help problem gamblers but was simply about playing politics with the jobs of 40,000 workers.
"Gaming machines are not new and have been played and enjoyed by our customers for 12 years and no evidence has ever been produced to show they are any more addictive that any other product, whether a casino table game or scratch card," he said.
"While you could bet £100 in one go, hardly anyone does. The data from betting shop operators and machine manufacturers shows the average customer plays for about 10 to 15 minutes and spends only £7.55 which is less than the price of a cinema ticket."

Advanced Sculpture Students Install New Public Art at Princeton
Steve Runk
Director of Communications
Lewis Center for the Arts
A new public sculpture was recently installed on the Princeton campus, conceived and executed by eight students in the Lewis Center's course in Advanced Sculpture taught by artist Martha Friedman in the Program in Visual Arts. Constructed of concrete and rubber and located behind the Friend Center off Olden Street, the piece will be on view through October.
Creating and installing a collaborative outdoor public sculpture on campus was a stated goal in the course description and syllabus, along with creation of individual, thematically-linked sculptures or installations by each student.
"Not only did all eight students in the course have prior experience with creating sculpture," notes Friedman, "but most had either worked with me or one another, so a collaborative work came together very organically."
The students began the process by researching a wide range of outdoor sculpture projects including work in the university's extensive collection. They also researched how artists interact with the industrial fabricators that translate the artist's often large-scale vision into an actual object, visiting a number of fabricators including the contractor that does much of the concrete work for the university.
The class met with staff in the university's Office of the Vice President for Facilities to consider specific campus locations where the sculpture could be sited. "Critical to the creative process for the students, as for any artist conceiving a piece of outdoor public art, is to understand the context, the environment, the experience of the people who pass through the area, and the limitations posed by the site and materials, as well as practical and regulatory issues," explains Friedman.
Upon selection of the lawn between the Friend Center and Mudd Library as the site, the students developed concepts, sketches and models of potential designs both in-class and via email, according to Friedman. The students became interested in cast concrete pilings used as foundations and extending these foundational supports out of the ground. "The idea emerged of several columns that would communicate a 'group' and which were collectively activated by doing something," recounts Friedman. They also wanted to design a place for people to sit and view the piece and to enable viewers to become part of the sculpture.
The final design was for two erect seven-foot columns leaning in to grasp a blue rubber form between them with a third column lying prone nearby with another blue rubber form perched on it, becoming the seating envisioned in the design. Reaching consensus on a title for the piece proved more challenging that the collective design, and so a very long combined title was chosen: "Untitled; Untitled III; Chopsticks; Awesome; Compression; Blue Balls; Two Standing; One Sitting; Please Sit; Take a Load Off; Compress Me; Finals//Exhaustion; Drill Baby Drill; #Public; Touch Me; 4 Degrees; (Glass) Shards; Three Students; Let's Vote; #DenzerNation; Princess Di; Giant Poet; Anne-Elise; Freed Me; Antonia (much thanks to Antonio); Ji-Hold Me Tight; Ryan-bot; Three Little Pigs; Three Blind Mice; The Holy Trinity; Three Finger; Three's A Crowd; Gangsta Lean; Don't Pee On This Sculpture; Free Advice; Three Advice; Lean On Me; Outdoor Furniture; Outdoor Future; P=NP?; #Reunions13; Emergence."
To execute the sculpture, the students welded the rebar armature for the columns in the Lewis Center's sculpture studio and witnessed the pouring of the concrete columns at the manufacturer's plant. They also cast the blue rubber forms in class. The students were on hand to oversee the piece's installation at the site.
The students involved in the creation of the new work include undergraduates Ben Denzer '15, Jiho Lee '13, Diana Li 13, Elise Rise '15, and Nicolas Schmidt '15, along with graduate students in the School of Architecture, Michal Koszycki, Ryan Johns, and Antonia Weiss.
The Program in Visual Arts' technical director, Marjorie Carhart, coordinated the complex project. Members of the university's facilities staff who assisted are Sean Gallagher, Manager of Civil Engineering and Construction, and Charles Krank, Assistant Director of Administrative Services for Grounds and Building Maintenance, with the approval of Paul LaMarche, Vice Provost for Space Programming and Planning.
Friedman has been on the Lewis Center faculty for four years. Her work has been exhibited in solo exhibitions at the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit, DeCordova Museum and Sculpture Park in Massachusetts, and Wallspace in New York City, and in group exhibitions at The Garage Center for Contemporary Culture in Moscow and the Contemporary Art Center in Cincinnati. She will be acting director of the Program in Visual Arts in the spring semester of 2014.

The Lewis Center for the Arts encompasses Princeton University's academic programs in creative writing, dance, theater, and visual arts, as well as the interdisciplinary Princeton Atelier. The Center represents a major initiative of President Shirley M. Tilghman to fully embrace the arts as an essential part of the educational experience for all who study and teach at Princeton.

PSY is cruising
PSY, the South Korean rapper and former Berklee and Boston University student behind YouTube's most-viewed video ever, has set what might be a ''Mission: Impossible'' for himself. Asked which celebrity he would like to see go ''Gangnam Style,'' the singer said: ''Tom Cruise!'' Surrounded by screaming fans, he then chuckled at the idea of the movie star doing his now famous horse-riding dance. PSY's comments Wednesday in Bangkok were his first public remarks since his viral smash video — with 838 million views — surpassed Justin Bieber's ''Baby,'' which until Saturday held the record with 803 million views.

Comments about Kitchen-Aid 36" Downdraft:
I have had this product for less than a year and already it has been replaced completely under the warranty. The second one still 'sticks' when in elevation mode and doesn't come up all the way - this will probably have to be replaced too. It's noisy when the extractor fans are turned on and it doesn't remove cooking odors, steam, fumes etc. which is the whole point of having it - our venting system is excellent - there are no blockages - so why doesn't the downdraft suck away fumes etc? I would NOT recommend this product to anyone - along with my new Kitchenaid 48" built-in, side-by-side refrigerator - the ice maker has been replaced once already and now the new one has ceased to work - we're waiting for a new 'shoot' - meanwhile - no ice also less than a year old!
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

CHESTERFIELD, VA—After Chesterfield residents voiced concerns over a landfill's proposal to accept "fly ash," a material that's potentially harmful to one's health, the landfill said it will withdraw its request to accept the material.
In a statement, Skinquarter Landfill announced a decision not to accept fly ash, and said it will withdrawal its request to accept the material.
The company said while it believes the material was environmentally and economically beneficial to the community, it has decided not to accept the materials due to the community's concerns over transporting the material to the site.
"Fly ash" and "fluff" are materials can be harmful to your health, and when Skinquarter Landfill in Chesterfield County announced plans to accept the materials, some residents were outraged.
Chesterfield resident Missy D'Aconti was stunned to learn the landfill planed to start collecting the two new kinds of waste.
Fly ash is a term for coal combustion products, and fluff is automobile shredder residue.
"It's dangerous. There's no reason for it," Missy said.
Very few facilities currently accept the materials. Currently, the landfill is mainly used for wood product recycling.

Saturday the 9th April brings Northern League Day, where everyone is being encouraged to support their local Northern League team. I know we're at home to WBA that day, but if you can't make it, or fancy some proper football then head down to your local team and support grassroots football. The Northern League are working to have games kick off earlier, and later so you can still get to SAFC v WBA should you wish.
I was recently asked to write about my experiences with the Northern League by organiser of the day, Michael Hudson for his Northern League Day Blog.
Here's what I had to say on the links between The Northern League, and my two beloved teams; Sunderland & Jarrow Roofing. There's more links between them than you'd think...
The Roker Report fully back this initiative to support grassroots football, and we will feature another article on the big day nearer the time, so look out for that.

This is a fantastic news for the city. The sculpture looks absolutely beautiful and purposeful from the pictures. It is a modern interpretation of an interactive art.
A couple of Christmas' ago, my family and I saw a neighborhood tree decorated and lit with tiny LED lights. The effects was magical at night. This one is going to be a super magical scene for the entire family.

"A lot of people keep saying, 'Why do you need money if it's already made?'" Gadeken said. "… One, there's a big difference between putting something on sidewalk for a year and staging it for a two-day festival. So trying to make things that are weatherproof and publicly safe has just been very expensive."
So, is the sculpture "publicly safe"? And if not, why is it being set before the public?

A lot of money being spent on one man's dream ..... the money is desperately needed in other areas
in our City ....If Mr. Gadeken wants to pay for his wish himself - alright, otherwise lets put the
expense money to better use.

Woman dies after crashing into SUV; car caught fireJanuary 29,2013JAMAICA — Authorities say a car skidded across a snow-covered southern Vermont road and crashed into a large SUV before catching on fire, killing a woman.
State police say the collision happened Monday afternoon in the town of Jamaica.
A preliminary investigation shows that a car was traveling southbound on Route 30 when the female driver lost control and the vehicle skidded across the road. It crashed into a northbound SUV driven by 48-year-old Gavin Scotti, of Greenwich, Conn.
Authorities say the car caught on fire shortly after the crash, and the driver was pronounced dead at the scene. Her name is being withheld until family can be notified.
Scotti and his 14-year-old passenger were taken to a hospital to be treated for minor injuries.
