Thierry Mugler Cologne is a very good blind buy, inspired by reviews on perfume blogs. In fact, I loved it so much that I reordered right away. For the upcoming hot period I like something refreshing, and I like to spray it on liberally. No danger to offend anyone, even with ample application. It's different enough from other colognes or even EdT to be noticeable. I really like it.

Theirry Mugler original cologne is a fresh crisp clean scent. I wore it to work and all day people would ask if I was even wearing cologne. (I always wear cologne and they were wondering why I didn't wear any). if your trying to get noticed this isn't the one to go, but if you want a cologne that is not offensive and will make you smell like you just got done showering all day long this is the one to go with. GREAT GYM SCENT

The smell is reminiscent of L'eau D'Issey. It smells cold crisp lemon and pine. This is a fragrance for when you DON'T want to wear fragrance. It's impossible to offend anyone with it. Good one to have in anyone's collection. It's cheap too!

- Azobenzene-functionalized molecular glasses for holographic applications (2010)
- Holography is an optical imaging technique, with which an authentic copy of the original object can be created, even in the absence of the object itself. This means, that in contrast to conventional photography, the information of depth is not lost. Holography is based on writing an interference grating in a photosensitive volume element. Hereby two light sources are generating an interference pattern, which causes chemical or physical changes in the photosensitive material. By illumination of the stored diffraction grating, the original information can be reconstructed. One of the most important classes of photoaddressable chromophores utilized in holography are azobenzene compounds. Owing to the rich photochemistry of these chromophores, materials incorporating azobenzenes can be used as photoswitches, allowing fast and reversible control over the chemical, physical or optical properties of the entire system. Therefore, azobenzene-containing compounds are envisioned as smart light-responsive materials for various holographic applications. This thesis describes the synthesis and characterization of azobenzene-containing molecular glasses as well as their application as functional materials in specific holographic experiments. By utilizing a modular design principle, we were able to fine-tune their physical and photo-physical properties and optimize the molecular structure in view of the formation of surface relief nanostructures as well as inscription of holographic volume gratings. Understanding the formation of surface relief nanostructures and discovering ways of controlling the process is of importance, as uniform surface relief gratings (SRGs) with adjustable spacing and amplitude are of interest. Therefore a new series of azobenzene-containing molecular glasses based on a triphenylamine core has been synthesized and photo-physically characterized. A clear relationship between the chemical structure of these molecules and SRG build-up was established: the rate of formation and the maximal achievable amplitude of SRGs strongly depend on the optical susceptibility at the wavelength of the writing laser. Furthermore, we found that different polarizations of the laser beams also have a major influence. With this knowledge we were able to efficiently form SRGs with amplitude heights of up to 600 nm by tailoring the molecular structure of the material and selecting specific experimental conditions. Furthermore, it has been demonstrated that these surface patterns are stable enough to be transferred to a polymer surface with replica molding techniques. This concept has the potential to be practically applied for holographic optical elements. Holography is a most promising solution for optical data storage, as in contrast to conventional optical storage media, the entire volume of the medium is used instead of only a few thin layers. Unfortunately, current rewritable materials still exhibit certain challenges, most important, sufficiently fast writing times. Therefore, material concepts especially for improving the recording time as well as the long-term stability of holographic volume gratings are presented. By employing azobenzene-containing molecular glasses in blends with photoaddressable polymers, we were able to merge the excellent long-term stability of the polymer systems with the higher photo-physical sensitivity of the molecular glasses, thus creating a superior holographic material which combines the advantages of both material classes. In order to find a suitable blending material, we synthesized series of photochromic azobenzene-containing molecular glasses and screened them with respect to their photo-physical properties. The best combination of structural variations was chosen for the blending experiments. Already a blend comprising as less as ten wt% of molecular glass allowed us to decrease the holographic writing time of a photoaddressable block copolymer system by a factor of three while increasing the recording sensitivity by the factor five. In addition to molecular glasses with ordinary azobenzene chromophores we also examined low molecular weight materials functionalized with bisazobenzene moieties. This enabled us to achieve higher maximum refractive index modulations. Liquid-crystalline behaviour could be introduced with the incorporation of substituents at the bisazobenzene moiety. Subsequent investigations of the photo-physical properties revealed a long-term stable photo-orientation solely based on small molecular compounds, making such materials an interesting alternative to established systems. In summary, this thesis demonstrates that azobenzene-containing molecular glasses are a worthwile focus for research, as they are an amazingly versatile and adaptable class of materials suitable for a large number of different applications.

After a week and a half of testimony and jury deliberations, Joseph Ross-Jones has been cleared of all murder charges. Our Melissa Kakareka has more on the verdict that filled one family with emotions.
BINGHAMTON, N.Y. -- Family members of Joseph Ross-Jones let out an exclamation of joy inside Broome County Court Wednesday. After a day and a half of deliberations, the jury found Ross-Jones not guilty of murder.
"Yes, we are excited," said one family member coming out of the courthouse.
"Justice was served," said another family member.
Ross-Jones had been charged with second degree murder in the death of Daniel Martinez. In October of 2011, Martinez's body was found shot and stabbed multiple times in the woods in the Town of Chenango.
The prosecution claimed that Ross-Jones and another man, Daniel Doherty, murdered Martinez because they owed him drug money.
Doherty pleaded guilty to the crime and testified against Ross-Jones as part of a deal to lessen his own sentence down to manslaughter.
"I think the evidence is pretty clear. But it wasn't sufficient for the jury, so that's their call," said Broome County District Attorney Gerald Mollen.
Despite winning the case for his client, defense attorney James Moran had no comment leaving the courtroom.
Throughout the trial, Moran accused Doherty of lying about the murder for his own benefit and also argued against alleged blood and forensic evidence that the prosecution presented.
The District Attorney doesn't feel the prosecutors or investigators should have done anything differently and says he respects the jury's decision.
"Each part of the system does its job and at the end of the day it's for a jury to determine whether guilt is proven," said Mollen.
Daniel Doherty will be sentenced for the murder at a later date and faces a minimum of 23 years in prison.
Joseph Ross-Jones is now a free man.

LEESBURG, Va. (AP) - A Nativity scene that was a longtime part of holiday decorations at the Loudoun County Courthouse but also the subject of controversy has a new home at a nearby church.
The Washington Post ( http://wapo.st/Uhq5YJ) reported Sunday that the display is now on the lawn of the Leesburg Presbyterian Church.
A manger scene has been an annual part of decorations on the courthouse lawn since the 1950s, but in recent years some questioned whether the display was appropriate on courthouse property.
The Loudoun County Board of Supervisors voted earlier this year to buy different holiday decorations including a Christmas tree, Santa Claus, a menorah and a smaller-scale manger scene.
The pastor of Leesburg Presbyterian Church, Deborah Dodson Parsons, says she is glad the display has found a new home.

Many community banks in recent months have been buying back preferred shares issued to the Treasury Department under the Troubled Asset Relief Program. And its a good thing, too, because the dividends they are required to pay jump from 5 percent to 9 percent late next year for those who signed on early. Another good thing is that all six investments of more than $10 billion into TARPs Capital Purchase Program have been paid in full, as have 19 more between $1 billion and $10 billion.
On the other hand, 325 of the programs 707 total participants still owe taxpayers $13.8 billion. Unpaid dividends or interest of $455 million is due from 203 financial institutions, some of which have missed as many as 13 payments. And Treasury has auctioned off the preferred stock of more than 30 banks at a discount.
On July 25, the Treasury Departments special inspector general for TARP issued a quarterly report to Congress on the programs status through June 30. Depending on ones viewpoint, the numbers are encouraging or troubling.
According to SIGTARP, Treasury reported that $191.1 billion of the CPP principal (or 93.3 percent) had been repaid as of June 30. That repayment tally includes $245 million in proceeds from an auction held from June 11 through June 13 of preferred stock in seven banks, but does not include $204.4 million in proceeds from an auction held from June 25 through June 27 of preferred stock in another seven banks. On Aug. 21, Treasury announced public offerings of the preferred stock it held in five more institutions.
The repayment amount also includes $363.3 million in preferred stock that was converted from CPP investments into the Community Development Capital Initiative and therefore still represents outstanding obligations to TARP, and $2.2 billion that was refinanced in 2011 into the Small Business Lending Fund, a non-TARP program, according to the SIGs report.
As of June 30, Treasury had received approximately $11.7 billion in interest and dividends from CPP recipients. It also had received $7.7 billion through the sale of CPP warrants that were obtained from TARP recipients.
Of the 382 financial institutions that have exited the CPP, 165, or 43.2 percent, did so through other government programs 28 of them through CDCI and 137 through the SBLF, SIGTARP reported. Only 164 of the banks that exited, or 42.9 percent, fully repaid CPP otherwise. In addition, three CPP banks merged with other CPP banks; Treasury sold its investments in 33 institutions at a loss; and 17 institutions or their subsidiary banks failed, meaning Treasury lost its entire investment in those banks.
TARP has been controversial since its launch in late 2008, and it still is. Widely viewed as a big bank bailout, arguably it averted the failure of a few systemically critical financial institutions. It also injected needed capital into some regional and community banks. Unfortunately for many of the latter group, prices paid for acquisitions are being discounted by the amount of TARP preferred shares and the low interest rate environment is restricting their ability to meet dividend payments or buy back the stock.
Boon or bane? Take your pick. TARP is a government program conceived in the Bush Administration and executed mostly in the Obama Administration. Theres ample credit/blame to go around.

Want to know how this works? Read all about it here.
- Preheat the oven to 220C/gas 7/fan 200C and lightly butter a baking sheet (unless you're using a non-stick sheet). Tip the flour into a mixing bowl with the salt. Shoot in the butter, then rub together with your fingers to make a reasonably fine crumbed mixture, lifting to aerate the mixture as you go. Try not to overrub, as the mixture will be lighter if it's a little bit flaky. Now stir in the sugar.
- Measure the buttermilk, then mix in the milk to slacken it. Make a bit of a well in the middle of the flour mixture with a round-bladed knife, then pour in most of this buttermilk mixture, holding a little bit back in case it's not needed. Using the knife, gently work the mixture together until it forms a soft, almost sticky, dough. Work in any loose dry bits of mixture with the rest of the buttermilk. Don't overwork at this point or you will toughen the dough.
- Lift the ball of soft dough out of the bowl and put it on to a very lightly floured surface. Knead the mixture just 3-4 times to get rid of the cracks.
- Pat the dough gently with your hands to a thickness of no less than 2cm and no more than 2.5cm. Dip a 5.5cm round fluted cutter into a bowl of flour – this helps to stop the dough sticking to it, then cut out the scones by pushing down quickly and firmly on the cutter with the palm of your hand – don't twist it.You will hear the dough give a big sigh as the cutter goes in. Gather the trimmings lightly then pat and cut out a couple more scones.
- Place on the baking sheet and sift over a light dusting of flour or glaze if you wish. Bake for 10-12 minutes until risen and golden. Cool on a wire rack, uncovered if you prefer crisp tops, or covered loosely with a cloth for soft ones.
- Serve with strawberry jam and a generous mound of clotted cream (Cornish people put cream first, then jam, Devonians the other way round). Eat them as fresh as you can.

Comments, questions and tips
I doubled the recipe and used a small cutter to make lots of small scones, brushed them with with milk and they came out lovely and golden. Served them with some thick double cream polish raspberry moose that my husband brought back from Poland, just lovely. Will definitely make again and possibly add some dried fruit next time.
What a great recipe. And foolproof. I had a sticky blob that I could not control. Realised I had no cookie cutter (?) at last minute so used a glass which was a disaster so ended up throwing lumps onto the baking tray and they STILL turned out great !!! What a luxury to have freshly baked scones with clotted cream and jam :0)
I was keen to find a foolproof scone recipe, so that I could make some good scones to go with our new found treasure of clotted cream in New Zealand - woohoo! These, whilst not the best scone I ever had, were probably the best I ever made. Shame there are only six of them! Best of all I liked the fact that they didn't have that horrid salty tongue tingly baking powder taste.

On PTR we spreaded out on 8 stacks of Adrenaline on the first Scorpion/Cat Shift. However we found out that the 2nd and 3rd Scorpion/Cat shift was a lot harder due to the stacks of Fury. We handled this by spreading on 5 stacks of Adrenaline with the 2nd/3rd Scorpion/Cat shift.
Main difficulty is handling the 5 Burning Orbs in the later Cat phase. Make sure to keep the debuffed players up and cast healing cooldowns.

ROCKVILLE, Md. - Most everyone knows it's important to eat a heart-healthy diet, but too often wallets get the workout from pricey, premium organics.
But there's good news: good food doesn't have to break the bank.
Take some tips from Jenna Umbriac. She knows how to eat well on a shoestring: she's the nutrition educator for Manna Food Center in Montgomery County. It's her job to teach classes on eating nutritious meals on tight budgets.
One of the biggest mistakes everyone makes, says Umbriac, is heading for the convenience foods. Many are packed with sodium, fat and sugar, and she says shoppers are paying for that convenience.
But, with busy schedules, grabbing a pack of ramen noodles, for example, might seem like a smart move. They're portable, cheap and laden with sodium.
Umbriac likens the noodles to eating a bowl of saltwater.
"There's over 1,000 milligrams of sodium in a serving of ramen noodles. The recommendation for most people is 1,500 milligrams - a day."
Another area where shoppers fumble when looking at their food budgets: continuing to lean on meats for protein. Umbriac advises to experiment with beans. They're cheap.
"They're loaded with fiber, they're going to fill you up, and they give you so much of what you need," she says.
Women know they need calcium, but anyone who's checked the price of milk lately knows it has skyrocketed. Umbriac recommends heading to the produce or frozen food aisles for collard greens or spinach.
"You're going to get calcium from that," she says.
Going without meat or milk isn't necessary, but a few substitutions here and there can save money and help the heart.
Umbriac accompanied Montgomery County officials as they embarked on the SNAP Challenge. SNAP is known to most people as food stamps. As part of the challenge, county officials are trying to feed their families on $5 a day.
Umbriac offered tips as county leaders tried to come up with a grocery list that would feed them for five days on just $25.
She will be blogging about the SNAP food challenge this week on MannaFood.org.

All hail the mighty humbucker! When you want that rich, heavy, crunch sound made famous by artists such as Jimmy Page, Slash, Pete Townshend, and Bob Marley, you want a Route 66 Vintage Solid Body Guitar with two humbucker pickups from Monoprice!
This full-sized, 22-fret guitar features a basswood archtop single-cutaway body, a bolt-on maple neck, a rosewood fingerboard , and chrome machine heads/tuning pegs. It uses two dual-coil humbuckers, which produce the distinctive sound used in southern rock, heavy metal, electric blues, reggae, and classic hard rock. A three-position switch on the body above the fingerboard allows you to easily select between the bridge and neck pups, or both together.
Before it gets shipped to you, each Monoprice guitar undergoes a setup, tuning, and inspection process by Master Luthier Roger Gresco here in Southern California. The setup ensures that the neck is straight, the action is right, and that it will stay in tune. Additionally, it comes with everything you need to get started, including strings (installed), a heavy-duty zippered black gig bag with shoulder strap, a truss-rod wrench, and a pick.

is it free return ?
I doubt these have any resale value
SwifiJon ( ) Jun. 9, 2013 at 11:15pm
birdwax ( ) Jun. 9, 2013 at 11:22pm
I've been meaning to try one of these. The "Route 66" model is probably a better deal because Les Paul clones aren't often found in this price range, while there are any number of decent Strat clones under $100. From what I've heard, these are really pretty good. The biggest complaint, by far, is that they say "Monoprice" on them. But at least that doesn't effect the quality, only your pride.
okinawanmatt ( ) Jun. 9, 2013 at 11:23pm
Lol. I don't think it'll have a resell value unless the guitar enthusiast websites online start declaring that it has value.
It's happened before. A Yamaha beginner dreadnought guitar I purchased in 2002 for $100 new now costs $400 used. It had nothing to do with Yamaha raising the price, and had everything to do with guitar enthusiasts praising it's craftsmanship while Yamaha stopped making that model.

If you ask me, the black looks better than the sunburst. The honeyburst looks nice, though.

Anybody else hoping this isn't the beginning of Monoprice's slow descent into a massive repository for trinkets and junk?
I'm not saying the guitars are junk, just that Monoprice does what they do so well (in my opinion) that I'd hate to see them lose focus on their core and expand/stretch themselves too far. Electric and (soon to be) acoustic guitars? Seems outta left field to me. . .

Q: What is your response to the 40 Days for Life protest taking place outside your clinic?
Abortion is an issue to me that - scientifically, ethically, politically, legally - in my heart of hearts I favor legal, properly-performed abortions. Anybody who demonstrates against us, in my experience - and it's always tied to some religious organization - to me, they are no different than Osama bin Laden and his creed. Because you cannot talk to them, their minds are closed, they think that God talks to them, which in my point of view is psychotic.
I feel sorry for them, for all who walk down that road of brainwashing, but you know, some people are just susceptible to brainwashing. But despite that, no religious terrorism will stop me from doing what I think is the scientifically right thing to do.
Q: So then, I take it that you're not a particularly religious man?
No sir. I am a very devout atheist. Very deeply, there's no question about it. This God concept is a very interesting anthropological development, but I think its just - ah, did you ever see the Bill Mahr movie "Religulous?
Well, I haven't seen it, but I know the film you're talking about.
I would go a bit further than him, a little more radical. You know, Mahr says that 'God may exist.' But I say that God, as it's defined to me and through my readings from antiquity, you know, it's all a wonderful story. And, I suggest, a nice fairy tale.So, the doctor gives his atheistic (and admittedly radical) world view in the first few questions. Yet, the protesters, who peacefully and prayerfully protest outside his clinic, are considered brainwashed psychotic terrorists who believe in fairy tales.
Q: Your website describes abortion as an "important medical procedure." Can you expand on that?
Well, it's a philosophical question. But to us, ethically, having an early abortion and taking birth control pills are the same procedure, because certain types of birth control prevent the development of a fertilized egg and leads to miscarriage.
If you consider a fertilized egg a pregnancy, which religious people do, then taking certain birth control pills is just as much an abortion as anything else. It's somewhat interesting that many people who would demonstrate against an abortion service think nothing of taking birth control pills. Ethically, you cannot differentiate between the two.
Second, in a certain patient population, an early abortion is a safer, better birth-control method than even taking birth control pills. So, from a medical point of view, there is no scientific or ethical argument that you could come up with against early pregnancy termination. As long as humans have recreational sex they will need abortion. As long as some pregnancies are abnormal, we will need abortion. You can't get around it.Above is something the rest of America needs to read. An abortion doctor ADMITTING THAT CONTRACEPTION AND ABORTION ARE PHILOSOPHICALLY AND MEDICALLY TIED TOGETHER!
Q: Your website mentions you offer counseling. Does your clinic offer literature, or do you talk about other options, such as adoption, with the women who come in?
Well, adoption is very simple, if they are interested we discuss it. It's sort of a misconception in some circles that ladies who choose pregnancy termination would be interested in adoption, that's one thing people don't understand.
Abortion is birth control. Adoption is giving up your child and not accepting your duties as a mother. Most women are not interested in that. It's only in a religiously-altered mind that that's a true option.-Translation - of course we don't counsel for adoption. That would be silly. We don't want to lose profit.
Q: It seems that the debate over abortion hinges on a central question: at what point do you believe that a fetus becomes a human being?
Well, as long as you have an early abortion, that's birth control. If you have a late-term abortion, that's euthanasia. I mean c'mon, let's face it. You do an abortion at 30 weeks, you know, you could do a C-section and you have a little baby in your hands. That's euthanasia.
But euthanasia is something that's coming, you know. I mean c'mon. It already exists in Holland, Belgium and Switzerland."-Translation - My answer is completely arbitrary, but abortion isn't any worse than killing through euthanasia.
This is correct! His logic is both sound and faulty at the same time. If you take his premise to its logical conclusion, you can't help but become the decision-maker over every human life, not just babies!
Q: And what's your opinion of state-sanctioned euthanasia?
It's coming, I mean, you can't avoid it. You can cry against it, but it's a necessity. The only way you can control suffering and dying a most miserable death is by properly developed, medically-supervised euthanasia.I agree with his assessment of the direction of our culture. We are heading toward killing each other off for the sake of "death with dignity". There is no meaning to suffering if you believe that life is merely about pleasure and has no ultimate meaning. Nihilism coming home to roost.
Q: So you think that's a medical progression that will be sort of natural?
Yes, there's no question in my mind. The United States happens to be a sociologically very backwards country, I mean compared to any European country. So, it's coming, and it's a struggle. I mean look at it, the whole society struggles with it. But it's like a train coming down the track.
But can I ask you a question? You have asked many questions, so let me ask you: Why is it okay to put a dog to sleep because it hurts too much, but it's not okay to put a human to sleep? He needs to suffer? That's reasonable? I don't think so.Europe as a model to follow? No thanks. They are headed toward demographic suicide.
Getting a little slice of the way this man thinks frightens me. But, this is the kind of thinking that is permeating our society. Thoughts have consequences and we must fight such lies with the truth.
Please pray for him and all who work in the abortion business.

No one likes tube socks.
Tube socks are so soccer-player. Time to upgrade his style to the Volcom Boys' Full Stone Sock. A logo on the calf lets them know who he rides for, and a little color over the toe and heel makes it harder for him to put them on upside-down.
