Very well located: next to "Théâtre de l'Odéon". You can take your delicious "bio" breakfast in a cute garden. Our bedroom was really nice and we even had a tasty gift as it was our marriage birthday.

Historical Traveller Reviews of Jardin de L Odeon Hotel
Not all that was promisedfrom A TripAdvisor Member
Good Value, Great Locationfrom odette38
The rooms were reasonably sized by Paris standards (we stayed at a different hotel for a bit and the rooms there were considerably smaller--hotel California Saint Germaine) and tastefully decorated. The rooms have working safes and mini bar/fridges. The bathrooms were modern and clean. All of the staff at the hotel were very nice and helpful.
We also tried the restaurant across the street, La Cambuse, based on other tripadvisor reviews and would recommend going there. The food was great at very reasonable prices.
The hotel is in an ideal location, being just a few streets up from the Odeon metro and very near the bustle of St. Germaine and the Latin Quarter, but located on a nice quiet street (our room faced the street but noise was not an issue). We did not have breakfast at the hotel because of the close proximity of so many cafes. There is also a bakery right around the corner called Pain du Prince and getting a baguette or some croissants or pain au chocolats from there in the morning is much cheaper and tastier.
We had a great experience and would definitely consider staying here again!

Lovely Quiet Hotel in Great Locationfrom dmurp
We paid 80 Euros per night for a double room which we booked on the internet about a week before we travelled. We were also in contact by email with Azir before we travelled and found him and his colleagues very helpful during our stay. The room itself was small - the standard for Paris - but was very clean, comfortable and modern.
There are lovely restaurants nearby and we would echo the comments made by another contributor that you should check out the restaurant across the street from the hotel, La Cambuse. The proprietor's name is Gerrard and the food was very good and was the most reasonably priced meal that we had during our visit. Gerrard is a great fan of rugby union and visits Ireland to watch France play Ireland. He also recommended a nice bar to us called La Pinte which is at the end of the road before you approach the Odeon metro station.
We would also recommend eating in a restaurant called La Mediterranee which is situated just around the corner from the hotel on the Place de L'Odeon. The food was great although more pricey than La Cambuse.
The hotel was great value in a wonderful location and we would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel and intend to stay there again ourselves.

Very Disappointedfrom Kathika
Good bet for the price range.from reading222
The breakfast was poor for the price (€12), better to go to one of the local cafes - try heading south to towards the Jardins de Lux rather than to the congested area around the Odeon metro.
Top Local Tips for Paris
The Latin area is overrated! We went arround the restaurant in the latin area. My impression is that you pay the full price for half the quality. Search for the small resteurants where the locals meet if you want a real Parisian experience and go for the local food. You want be dissapointed.
Sightseeing in Paris Purchase museum cards and metro tickets (batch of 10)
Stamps Although lots of places sell postcards, very few sell stamps. You'll need to find a post office; these usually have a multi-lingual info-provided machine for dispensing stamps, so you can avoid the queues.

"Dare I be so bold as to present my heart's truth?
"The truth is that all artists are 'Artists – First.' (There is no other kind.)
One, however, doesn't choose to be an artist. One recognizes that one already is. One hears herself, sees what belongs to her and claims it."
–Gail Sher, The Intuitive Writer
My paintings are a happy lot. Brush strokes unleashed! Each painting is an intuitive rendering of color and form. A kaleidoscope of silent sounds.
Restless, free, spontaneous, sensual. Sights and sounds flow into images that become painted narratives.
"Art after all is but an extension of language to the expression of sensations too subtle for words." –Robert Henri, The Art Spirit
My secrets are empty of hidden
- Each painting wants its joy
to be shown to and shared with the world, or sometimes simply shared with a solitary admirer.
Rose Marie Mercado, artist, seeks.
She, artist, surrenders.
You will find the intuitive intertwining of her abstract expressions conveyed in her brush strokes emblazoned across her paper or canvas.
First, there was watercolor (2000 – 2003, and sometime again soon). Restless, free, spontaneous, sensual watercolor. Rose Marie's first paint brushes were dipped in watercolor paint. With a natural affinity for the deft touch, her hushed swishes upon the cold-press paper astounded her. Feeling unseen gentle force behind her elbow, guiding her own moving hand, she realized she was…painting!!! When she introduced napthol crimson and cadmium scarlet to marigold, squealing when the pigments blended to orange sunset or diluted to plum pink, she declared herself amid a dream manifested: Rose Marie was actually painting! (Not just thinking about it.)
Later, there was oil painting (2004 – present, and not to be forsaken). Cognizant, exotic oil paint. A kaleidoscope of buttery soft paint swirls atop her new glass palette. Bigger, heavier brushes. With a natural affinity for the bold touch, her noisy swishes upon the stretched virgin canvas stimulate a kinetic passion. Feeling fire rising in her belly, guiding her cerebral murmurs, yielding to voices rising to bellow then receding to mellow, in sweeping gestures she unleashes the strokes. Artist!
What she is today: a mature, prepared visual painter — and writer — in her early sixties who has weighed the options and given herself over to pursuit of Art Habla, her term for both her contemporary abstract expressions in painting and for her blog stories about her art work and life as an "artpreneur."
"Art after all is but an extension of language to the expression of sensations too subtle for words." –Robert Henri, The Art Spirit

Driver of stalled pickup finds slithering surpriseJuly 11, 2014 @ 1:56 pm
SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) -- When a woman's pickup stalled on a street in Santa Fe, New Mexico, local chef Jackson Ault stopped to lend a hand.
Ault and the driver both ended up with a surprise Thursday when Ault popped the hood and found a brown and yellow python slithering across the engine block.
A police lieutenant responded to a call for help. He retrieved the 20-pound snake.
The python was taken to the Santa Fe Animal Shelter, where spokesman Ben Swan says the reptile has minor injuries but otherwise is in good shape.
Police say the snake likely crawled into the pickup at the motorist's home several blocks from where the vehicle stalled. And Ault says he thinks the truck stalled because the snake dislodged an electrical wire.
Authorities say the owner hasn't turned up yet.

Do you think it's the mom's fault her child died?
PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium says the mother of a 2-year-old boy fatally mauled in a wild African dogs exhibit is to blame in her son's death and shouldn't be allowed to sue.
The claim filed Monday in Allegheny County is in response to a lawsuit brought by the parents of Maddox Derkosh.
Jason and Elizabeth Derkosh are seeking unspecified damages in the Nov. 4 death of Maddox, who fell over a 4-foot-tall railing into the exhibit after his mother lifted him up to get a better look.
The zoo says in the court filing that Maddox's death was "caused solely by the carelessness, negligence and/or recklessness of Elizabeth Derkosh."
The parents' attorney, Robert Mongeluzzi, said in a statement Wednesday that "the zoo's position is dead wrong and shameful."
While it is such a horrible, sad thing.....c'mon. Who looks at a pack of wild dogs and says 'my kid can't see them good enough, I should dangle him over the fence!'
While I feel really bad for the mom, and I'm not going to say its HER FAULT, I dontthink it's the zoos fault either.
Quoting -42-:
Of course not, zoos should know better than to have wild animals behind a fence and in an enclosure.....it's just asking for it!
While it is such a horrible, sad thing.....c'mon. Who looks at a pack of wild dogs and says 'my kid can't see them good enough, I should dangle him over the fence!'
If you google 'Pittsburgh zoo dog exhibit picture', you can see it.
Quoting crwspringer:
4ft isn't much of a safety railing. I guess without seeing the configuration if the exhibit and rail I can't really say.
While the mom should have have obviously not held that poor boy on the fence, the zoo needs to get better restrictions on that outlook. My family went to this zoo earlier this summer and as I was walking past the outlook (there's no longer any animals down under the outlook) two older kids ran up to it and jumped on the bottom of the fence and leaned their heads over to look down. They could easily lift themselves up and obet without paying attention if they were trying to get a better look. I live an hour and a half away from there, and the news will mention it sometimes in detail and I just quiver thinking about that poor little boy.
It wasn't the petting zoo. The fence is there for a reason. The mom chose to ignore that reason. The zoo is not liable, imo.
she is suffering the horrible loss of her babay and had to watch him in pain does she really need any more sorrow

Santa to the Sea
From day one we have been a healthy fun event for the whole family. We have the Half Marathon, for serious runners. We have the 2 Person Relay for people who want to do more than a 5K. We have the 5K which some run and some people walk, push a stroller or take their dog along. And in 2012 we added the 1K kids run so the little kids can have fun along with their parents. We thought we had the whole family covered. But, we forgot one very important group, BABIES. The 2nd Annual Diaper Dash will be at 2pm on Saturday Dec.13, 2014 at 2pm at our Oxnard Packet pick-up location. This year we will cap the race to 35 babies. We will have 7 races with 5 babies in each race. The 7 winners will advance to the championship. The coarse will be about 10 feet long on a small stage with coaches on both ends one starts the baby off and the other coach cheers the baby to the finish line. The babies must crawl, any standing or walking and the babies will be disqualified. There is a $10.00 registration fee. Click Here to register your winner
The winning baby will be awarded a trophy and be declared the "Fastest Baby at Santa to the Sea 2014"

LINVILLE The path alongside Rose Creek naturally follows its rocky bank and gentle contours as it approaches the Eastern Continental Divide.
For centuries this wild and lush land served as prime buffalo and elk hunting grounds for Native American tribes.
And about 230 years ago, chestnut and massive oak trees dwarfed Revolutionary War patriots who traveled this trail on their way to Kings Mountain and a battle that historians say changed the New World.
Until now, there has been no way for the public to hike Rose Creek from the nearby Blue Ridge Parkway. But nine years ago, several North Carolinians came together with the state to change that. The group cobbled together nearly 1,600 acres to create Rose Creek Trail and two other walking routes, Saddle Mountain and Little Table Rock, along the parkway.
All three opened to the public this weekend.
Tens of thousands of tourists have passed by on the nearby parkway and have had no idea the history that lies through those woods, said conservationist Mike Leonard, a Charlotte native.
With all the mess in Washington these days, thank goodness there are good people like Fred and Alice Stanback, said Leonard, referring to a Salisbury philanthropist couple who have helped protect and conserve numerous wild areas in North Carolina. They are people who dont wait on the federal government, but are willing to stand up and put their own money on the table to buy and conserve land while its still undeveloped. ... And to create walking trails and natural areas for the public good.
Money to purchase the land, build three trails, and erect signs and granite markers came from several private citizens (including the Stanbacks), as well as from The Conservation Fund and the Southern Appalachian Highlands Conservancy.
Leonard, vice chairman of the Virginia-based Conservation Fund, also credits the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission with helping to create the trails.
In all, the land involved had a value approaching $9 million, he said, which was paid from private and government sources, along with some landowners willing to donate their property.
Leonard declined to provide a breakdown of the individuals and groups that contributed. But the Stanback family did play a prominent role.
Fred and Alice Stanback part of the family that founded and later sold the Stanback headache powder business have contributed to more than 30 land conservation efforts, including 18,000 acres in the South Mountains near Morganton and Chimney Rock Park, about 90 miles west of Charlotte.
Fred Stanback said the new pathways are an invitation for people to get out of their cars and experience the wonders of the Blue Ridge.
Alice and I believe that the way to assure public support for the beautiful North Carolina mountains is to make (them) available to the general public by protecting land along the parkway and providing trails on those protected lands, he said.
Uniting to preserve nature
The Blue Ridge Parkway is the nations most visited national park unit, drawing some 16 million visitors annually, with an estimated economic impact in the Southern Appalachians region of $2.3 billion.
Since completing the 469-mile parkway in 1987, the federal government has, for the most part, left any expansion of land holdings along the route to private groups such as The Conservation Fund. In some instances, the protected land stretches only as wide as the pavement and a 400-foot right-of-way.
Leonard, who played key roles in bringing national landmarks such as Chimney Rock and Grandfather Mountain into state ownership, helps assemble the framework for private landowners to come together with land trusts and local and state governments. As a volunteer in the 1990s, he helped bring about the improbable linking Crowders Mountain State Park in North Carolina with Kings Mountain State Park in South Carolina.
If I have the opportunity to help protect another beautiful place in the Carolinas, Im going to try to do it, said Leonard, a products liability lawyer at Womble Carlyle in Winston-Salem. It helps keep me sane.
Both Leonard and the Stanbacks have been honored for their conservation work with the North Carolina Award; previous winners include evangelist Billy Graham, singer James Taylor, and poet and author Maya Angelou.
The Stanback Trails are designed for casual hikers and families. They are rated easy to moderate and can be completed in less than three hours. The trails are also well-marked and accessible directly from the parkway or by nearby access roads.
Gordon Warburton of the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission said public-private partnerships are critical in a time of limited government dollars.
Its crucial in putting together the jigsaw puzzle of public and private lands to provide access for hunters, fishermen, birdwatchers and hikers, Warburton said as he helped secure the granite trail marker at Rose Creek.
Theres ways of stretching these resources turning an old logging road into a hiking trail so a new generation can experience whats out here, just beyond the parkway.

Saudi Arabia is set to tighter security around all its missions in Pakistan following the assassination in Karachi on Monday of one of its diplomats by suspected al-Qaeda elements.
A spokesman of the Saudi interior ministry, Mansour Al-Turki said in a statement that in the light of the assassination of one of its diplomats, Hassan Misfer Al-Qahtani, Riyadh would now review the "security of Saudi diplomatic missions in Pakistan with a view to ensuring adequate protection to diplomats, staff and their dependents".
In Islamabad, interior minister Rehman Malik held Al Qaeda responsible for the Saudi diplomat's slaying.
"Undoubtedly Al-Qaeda has had a role in the assassination of the Saudi diplomat," Iran's Fars News Agency quoted Mr. Malik as saying. Analysts point out that the assassination of the Saudi diplomat could be seen as an act of assertion by Al Qaeda, following the killing in Pakistan of Osama bin Laden, the head of the organisation. Al Qaeda has since the end of the former Soviet Union's withdrawal from Afghanistan, targeted the House of Saud, because of its close military ties with the Americans.
On Wednesday, circles close to Al Qaeda announced the name of Saif el Adal as the group's new head. Observers say that Mohammad Ilyas Kashmiri and Adnan G. El Shukrijumah, is likely assist el Adel, an
Egyptian, to organise operations to avenge bin Laden's killing in Abbottabad on May 2 by U.S. Navy Seals.
In Riyadh, King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz, the Saudi monarch telephoned Al Qahtani's father to convey his condolences, Saudi daily Arab News reported. Saudi assistant foreign minister, Prince Khalid bin Saud bin Khalid has been quoted as saying that Pakistan would play a "primary role" in the investigating of the crime. However, a panel of Saudi officials, whenever required, could join the Pakistani investigating team.

Griffin Theatre's 'Spelling Bee' ideally suited for the times
By HEDY WEISS Theater Critic November 7, 2013 5:40PM
Laura McClain is among the ensemble cast of "The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee" at Griffin Theatre.
'THE 25th ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY

When: Through Dec. 15
Where: Griffin Theatre at Theater Wit, 1229 W. Belmont

Updated: November 7, 2013 7:22PM
'The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee," the beguiling little musical chosen to open Griffin Theatre's 25th anniversary season, unfolds in a typical high school gym complete with basketball hoops and bleacher seats.
It is there that a pack of six neurotic teens (briefly buttressed by four pre-selected audience members) vie for a trophy, and chance to make it to the next highest round of competition.
Overseeing the bee is Rona Lisa Peretti (expertly played in subtle high-drive by Laura McClain), a real estate agent and long-ago winner, and the school's somewhat aberrant vice principal, Douglas Panch (Andy Cameron). Assigned to serve as the hug-and juicebox-dispensing "bouncer" who must gently but firmly usher out the disqualified is Mitch Mahoney (a perfectly droll Steven Perkins). Mitch, who is doing his post-prison community service at the bee, offers this bit of wisdom: Disappointment DOES matter, but THIS is nothing.
You don't have to love dictionaries to find delight in this musical, which arrived on Broadway in 2005, was conceived by Rebecca Feldman, and features a zippy, aptly eccentric score by William Finn and an alternately funny and touching Tony Award-winning book by Rachel Sheinkin. But who doesn't love derivations and definitions and the sheer magic of language? And at a time when kids are being so pushed, prepped, tested and fueled by adult anxieties, something about this show just feels made-to-order. The danger that lurks is that the whole thing can become overly cute and precious. But director Scott Weinstein and his cast have neatly sidestepped such pitfalls.
The adolescent spellers include Olive Ostrovsky (Charlotte Mae Ellison, a supremely natural actress), whose mom is off at an ashram in India and whose dad has neglected to pay the contest entry fee or show up at the event; Logainne Schwartzandgrubenierre (Landree Fleming as the politicized nerd trying to please her gay dads); Marcy Park (Rochelle Therrien, perfect as the multilingual overachiever); Charlito "Chip" Tolentino (William Lucas, ideal as the most mature guy, distracted by sexual fantasies); William Barfee (Conor McCahill, a bundle of neuroses as the high-strung, allergy-ridden kid who spells out words with his foot), and Leaf Coneybear (Daniel Desmarias as the sweet, imaginative loser ).
Music director Matt Deitchmann leads an expert band that includes Kevin Reeks, Mike Matlock and Dylan Frank in this show that is just acerbic, poignant and nutty enough to suggest these kids will take their scars into adulthood, along with memories of the bee.

Overall Rating: 1.5 / 5

Don't bother with this one. Poorly made. None of the cheap plastic bezels included are large enough to cover the stock hole in the fender on my '66. Even if the bezels were designed properly, the plastic is so thin and brittle I cannot imagine them lasting for any length of time. Although, if designed properly, this wouldn't be particularly hard to install, there are no instructions and there is one odd part that I could not figure out what it was for. Bottom line is that you cannot use this on your stock fender. Even if I could, I wouldn't because it looks cheap and would almost certainly break in a short amount of time.
I can't say I recommend this item. If you want original, simply use stock antenna... If I had it to do over, I would have eliminated the factory hole in the fender and gone with a Sirius antenna on the back deck lid. The mounting quality of this product leaves much to be desired. The included parts do not even cover the stock hole well enough. You would think that after all this time, someone would have designed a power antenna that would actually work and look great....I stuffed the thing back into the box and put it on the shelf. I will be using the stock antenna base with the mast shoved all the way down so the button shows as though it was a retracted power antenna just to plug the hole... Maybe some day, they will make a Sirius antenna to fill the hole.

The dining scene in Midtown Sacramento has never been more exciting or diverse. If you can't get there as often as you might like, at least now you can taste a sampling of what all the buzz is about.
The Cupertino-based company DishCrawl is offering a mini-tour of three Midtown restaurants for $45. Each will serve samples of three house-specialty dishes — maybe something like the meatballs pictured here. At each place, the chef or owner will greet the group, talk about the menu and his/her food philosophy, and answer questions. Adult beverages are not included, but can be purchased separately.
Exactly which restaurants are on the tour is a secret that won't be revealed until just before the evening starts. If you sign up here, you'll be emailed the name and address of the first restaurant on the tour; that's the tour meet-up spot.
The Midtown DishCrawl will tour from 7 to 10 p.m. May 21. BTW, check out the DishCrawl videos here.
About This BlogAppetizers brings you the latest restaurant happenings, interesting tidbits on good food and events, and -- of course -- great specials and deals.

The popular Medium-Size Gift Edition of the St. Joseph New American (Catholic) Bible Revised Edition from Catholic Book Publishing contains the complete Old and New Testaments, many helpful aids for easy Bible reading including new maps, full-color illustrations, and Family Record. The beautiful and elegant features of this high-quality, medium-size (5 ½" x 8"). Indexed Pages. Imitation Leather cover.
St. Joseph New American Bible Revised Edition include supple material, blind embossing, foil stamping, precise stitching, and decorative gilding to provide an exquisite and unique package for the Word of God. Flexible burgundy imitation leather cover.
Note: The Bible readings used in the current missals & lectionaries & LOTH use an older version of the NAB translation that has now been updated in all the new NAB Catholic Bibles currently being printed. For this reason, this NAB Bible will be close (but not exactly word-for-word) to the readings you will hear at Mass. It is not possible to purchase an older NAB translation to exactly match the Mass readings, because they are no longer in print.

|I bought this gift for the young man I sponsored for Confirmation. He loved it! I bought the blue color, and it looked very classy. I thought it was great for a young man, but I'm sure young ladies would like it also. It was such a good size.
|September (Chicago, IL, March 13, 2010)
|I like this bible very much. My only complaint was that the cover had some kind of fragment of material on it when they stamped the name on the front cover. I pulled the fragment off which then left a small blank spot (it hard to describe - like a divot) in one of the gold letters.
|Jo Putt (Olathe, KS, March 26, 2010)
|The Bible I purchased for my niece's confirmation was absolutely beautiful. And she loved her name imprinted on the cover. The internet picture does not do it justice. Very nice quality and a great price.
|Valarie B. (Blue Ridge Mountains, NC, May 20, 2010)
|What a beautiful Bible! I was thrilled to find a CATHOLIC Bible that was both beautiful and not a paperback or hardback. It's not leather, but it looks like it. The only thing that would make it better, is if it was real leather. Pros: Beautiful, Heirloom quality

White Linen was my fragrance many years ago, in the late 1980's and I wore it for about 5 years. It had less aldehyde back then and maybe a bit more of the Bulgarian rose, a little more soft floral. I suppose I could have changed, but I do know that EL reformulated their fragrances as many perfume producers seem to have done. But as much as I have tried to go back to wearing White Linen over the last several years, it just is not the same. There is still the basic fresh,crisp, aldehydic burst, but then, nothing else special happens- no light floral, no soft dry down. Just kind of a sharpness and clean laundry feel. Which is not bad, it would be nice for just a casual summer day. I cannot see this a snuggle up fragrance, it does not evoke any real interest or intrigue, just a nice basic daytime scent that may really put off someone who did not like the sharpness of aldehydes. And then there is the unfortunate side effect of a headache which invariably comes along when I have worn any EL fragrance in the last several years.
I get a little nostalgic for it sometimes, and I do have a bottle (which cost $70, good thing I got the gift with purchase). I keep it around to take a small whiff once in a while, for old times sake. And each time do, I know it just won't work anymore. I think I'll have to keep it in the drawer, where it will stay with some old memories. I often associate fragrances with memories and people. This was the fragrance of my younger self, and there are some good times associated with it. And, if this still smelled as good as it did back then, still smelled as good on me as it used to, then I would wear it. But it just doesn't.
Fragrance is designed to make you feel good about yourself, so whether it be a classic from seventy years ago or the newest one on the market, you should always wear what makes you feel good about you. And keep the good memories, too...

I just can't get over how amazing White Linen smells all day, no layering necessary. Its strong, high key, meaning its going to stand out when you wear this, its lovely but not subtle at all. It makes you feel very good to smell so good, which increases your self confidence.
This is a floral masterpiece, an absolute beauty.
Love this, its one of my all time favorites and I own a large bottle.
Smells clean, very pretty and exceptionally classy.

It is a beautiful scent. When I smell it, I get transported back to my childhood sneaking into my mothers bedroom to play with her makeup and perfume on her vanity. Its such a warm, comforting smell. Like a grandmother wearing a warm cozy sweater we hugging you..
But alas, I am not meant to wear it. It doesn't go well with my chemistry/personality. I was told it makes me smell like old ladies and mothballs.
I thought about buying it just to sniff it when I am at home just for nostalgic purpose. I may, once a good GWP of a perfume comes out.

At initial burst, White Linen is sharp, loud, and overpowering. After a few hours, it quieted down to a soapy floral. White Linen might be something to wear to a business luncheon. I can see why some people enjoy this classic. However, it is not for me.

I bought White Linen a part of a set of mini Estee Lauder fragrances. Given its name, I expected White Linen to be light and soapy, but it's actually a rather strong floral. Peronally, I find it to be a bit harsh. Although it's not a terrible perfume, I probably won't repurchase.

My husband's all-time favorite perfume, White Linen has probably been the most worn fragrance of my lifetime. I've lost count of how many large bottles I've been through.
Beginning around 1981, I wore it throughout the 80's and 90's, and I still own it now -- I always will. I still wear it, especially with my husband, on our dinner dates and vacations.
White Linen is a clean fresh floral but so much more -- there's a mystique about it, I think. I find it alluring and magnetic.
Personal story: In the 80's I was once at a Christmas party with my husband (I was wearing Cinnabar) -- and I sniffed a fabulous perfume coming off a young 20-something slim pretty blonde girl who was sitting by herself.
Her perfume was a "drawing in" scent to the max -- it was mysterious, compelling, alluring, and had a pull like a strong magnet. Irresistible. I thought she was bound to attract men like flies, just so they could get better whiffs of that perfume! It was mysterious, hypnotic, & spellbinding to me.
I approached her and said, "I have to ask you -- what is that perfume you're wearing, it just smells so good!" -- to which she said "White Linen".
Huh? White Linen? That was my husband's fave on me, and I had already gone through at least 2 bottles and had another at home. Yet I didn't recognize it? I never thought of it as a wintery or Christmasy or particularly mysterious/hypnotic/spellbinding fragrance before, but on her, it reeeeeeally was! It made me appreciate it even more, getting that "outsider" perspective. Any time I catch a whiff of White Linen in public, it spins my head around -- it's arresting.
I've always had a big collection of perfumes and have always rotated constantly. Once, one of my female coworkers -- who had smelled many perfumes rotating on me for a very long time -- stood behind me at work and said, "You smell better right now than you've ever smelled". I was wearing White Linen.

Revisiting White Linen 20+ years after I used to wear it, and it's somehow shot into my top 5, for all time. A beautiful floating bubble of aldehydes and pale greens, this scent grounds me and erases all the messy pencil strokes to reveal the tidy lines underneath.
It's modern (in the classic sense), and clean without being ascetic. I'll love it for the feeling it gives me - comfortable, capable, calm.

Lovely floral with a soapy quality, to me. IMO, one of the best iterations of "soapy/clean." Not boring, long-lasting, and does not take on any "dirty" quality. Within its kind, the best.

Does anybody think the current White Linen is TOTALLY DIFFERENT than how it used to be???? I have a friend who used it in the late 80's early 90's and I remember it VIVIDLY... but when I smell it in stores now, it's not the same. Am I alone in this opinion? Did they change the formula?

What the **** did you just ******* say about me, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I'm the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the **** out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my ******* words. You think you can get away with saying that **** to me over the Internet? Think again, ****** . As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're ******* dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little **** . If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your ******* tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will **** fury all over you and you will drown in it. You're ******* dead, kiddo.

Dell's Still Stuck in The Doldrums
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Dell's (DELL) fiscal second-quarter came in light of expectations, but its third-quarter guidance has left investors wondering if the PC business will ever turn around.
As PC sales continue to be pressured by tablets, smartphones and mobile devices, Dell said it expects third-quarter revenue to fall between 2% and 5% sequentially. It also lowered full-year earnings guidance to at least $1.70 per share. Analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters were looking for earnings of $1.90 a share.
Deutsche Bank analyst Chris Whitmore is concerned that the pent up demand for Microsoft's (MSFT) Windows 8 will not be enough to stabilize the PC results. "Although the Win 8 launch should drive some inventory restocking and pent-up demand into the holidays, we remain concerned that Win8 tablets and NBs (notebooks) are unlikely to catalyze a sustained PC demand cycle," Whitmore wrote in a research note. He rates Dell "buy" with a $16 price target.
Results, however, were not all bad with several units of the Round Rock, Texas-based company showing growth, most notably server and networking, which saw revenue growth of 14%. Calling this growth "robust," Brean Murray analyst Ananda Baruah took some comfort that this segment can offset some of the pressures in the PC market.

text: Wayne Kramer: overrated or underrated? Depends who you ask. He made a name for himself with the indie "The Cooler" and followed it up with post-Tarantino multi-strand Paul Walker thriller "Running Scared" which in this writer's opinion doesn't deserve the cult following the film has. After that, Kramer switched it up again with the political drama "Crossing Over" which found him battling with the Weinsteins who ultimately buried the film. Earlier this year, Kramer was tapped to direct the Sylvester Stallone vehicle "Headshots" but later bowed out over "creative differences" with word that he had his another project brewing that was close to g...Read More »

2 (6.5 ounce) jars

1 small
onion, chopped
1 clove
garlic, minced
eggs, beaten
1/4 cup
fine dry bread crumbs
1/4 teaspoon
1/8 teaspoon
ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon
dried oregano
1/8 teaspoon
hot pepper sauce
2 cups
shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons
finely minced fresh parsley
Easy. Will make again. I agree it should be warm.
I was disappointed with this recipe since it sounded so great. I agree the consistency was a bit mushy. Also, I'd suggest decreasing the amount of onions, and then sauteeing them in butter or olive oil instead of the marinade...it seemed to give the dish an odd tangy flavor. Other than that, the bites were a little bland for my taste. Maybe adding more garlic, more seasoning and some parmesan cheese would help. Sorry, but this recipe received "thumbs down" from my crowd.

These are great. I bake them in an individual mini muffin pan so they are easy to serve at parties.
This recipe is absolutely delicious and it's a snap to make. My family love it.
I read all the reviews before making this wonderful recipe. To avoid the "mushy" comments, I sauted the onions and garlic in the artichoke marinade and cooked it until almost all the juice was gone. I also increased the oregano to 1/4 teaspoon and used seasoned fine bread crumbs instead of plain. Also, increased the cooking time by 5-10 minutes or until the top started to brown. The results were fantastic. No mushy artichoke bites here! And, I microwaved them for 1 min. 10 seconds to reheat. Perfect. Got numerous compliments from party I attended last night and my husband LOVED them. This one's a keeper and so easy!!
This is the greatest appetizer to have on hand...quick, easy and great results. I make mine up in Mini Muffin pans. (they resemble mini quiche) Love the result. I have even made this in advance...refrigerated, and zapped in the microwave when guests arrive. Friends always ask for the recipe.
I was looking for this recipe, after having tried something similar at a bunco party. This is very good, not exactly what I was looking for but I am glad to have stumbled across this recipe. I would suggest chopping the artichokes pretty small. Some of the larger chunks i left in made it crumble a bit.
Substitute Gruyere cheese for cheddar; and substitute Herbes de Provence for oregano. Sprinkle some grated Parmesan or Asiago over the top before baking....much better flavour profile.
