Creating Subpages
Subpages are groups of pages that share a common prefix, which itself is another page. While this is also possible with "classic" wiki, by using names like SomeTopicSubTopic, the use of SomeTopic/SubTopic allows better navigational support, and you can omit the common prefix when linking from the parent page to the child page.
Thus, by using "/" to concatenate several WikiNames, you can create arbitrarily deep hierarchies (within limits, especially the length of filenames on your system). In reality, subpages are normal pages that contain a "/" in their name, and thus they are stored besides all other pages in the file system. Subpages are a configurable feature, but they're on by default and it's recommended that you keep it that way, since the help pages themselves use this feature.
Links to sibling pages start with "../", for example ["../子网页"] (a link to this page).

Md. lawmakers say federal facility's move delayed
Thursday - 1/3/2013, 8:05pm EST
HYATTSVILLE, Md. (AP) - Members of Maryland's congressional delegation say plans to relocate about 450 jobs from Prince George's County have been delayed until the end of 2019.
The Maryland lawmakers made the announcement on Thursday.
The 450 positions are part of the Financial Management Services facility in Hyattsville. The Treasury Department had announced plans to move the jobs to Parkersburg, W.Va., next November as part of a consolidation with the Bureau of Public Debt.
The original plan called for giving employees until January 2015 to either relocate or separate.
Members of the Maryland congressional delegation have been negotiating with the Treasury Department for a delay since the move was announced in August.

Fuel combustion is an important part of any vehicle's performance. To deliver maximum performance without wasting energy, a precise mixture of air and fuel is required. To accomplish precise accuracy of this goal, most engines use an advanced fuel injection system. Among the necessary components in this system is the Air mass meter. This little piece of equipment is typically located near the air filter. It's job is to measure and regulate the amount of air entering the intake system at a given time. This ensures that the right amount of oxygen is being fed into the combustion chamber at any given time. To achieve this, the meter is electronically connected to the onboard computer. Through this connection, the component monitors fluid flow in the engine and adjusts air flow accordingly. Two types of air mass meters exist hot wire and vane meter. They differ in the way they measure the amount of air volume found in the intake stream. If you're looking for affordable prices and fast shipping, choose PartsGeek.com for all your automotive needs.
The Beck Arnley Air Mass Meter determines the blend of gasoline to air.

While Ash and friends are still discovering new islands, they come upon the seven Grapefruit Islands where groves of giant grapefruit are ripe and in season. When it looks like thieves are stealing the grapefruit, Ash, Tracey and Misty volunteer to help catch them. Surprisingly enough, what looked like hundreds of thieves was actually just one giant, hungry... and sleepy culprit!
- Ruby: "Where are they?"
Grapefruit Island worker: "Not they, it."
- "I did it! I caught a... Snor...lax."
Ash falling asleep.
- Ash says that Snorlax was doing the "blubberfly" while swimming, a play on the butterfly swimming stroke and also a reference to a non-Pokemon species. The closest Pokemon analogy to a butterfly would be Butterfree, which also appears in this episode.
- The "Who's that Pokémon?" in this episode is Ivysaur.

A Shirker's Call to Action: A Layabout No More! (逃げ腰NO.1 めんどくせーがやろっきゃねえ!!, Nigegoshi Nanbaa Wan Mendokuse~ga Yarukkyanee!!) is episode 70 of the original Naruto anime.
Kakashi orders Sakura to dispel the genjutsu on Naruto and Shikamaru. She dispelled Naruto, and it turned out that Shikamaru had already done so. Kakashi told them that this was an A-rank mission, and they needed to catch up to Sasuke. Pakkun noticed that Sound ninja were following them, and said that there were nine of them. Pakkun stopped, and told them to step on their footprints, so that it looked like that their prints had stopped. This would at least buy them some time.
Naruto told everyone that they should ambush them, but Pakkun told them that there would at least be a jōnin with those ninja following them. Then Shikamaru said that an ambush wouldn't work, because those ninja following them were trained for this, while their group was comprised of an idiot, a female ninja with no special talent, a dog, and the number one coward. Then Shikamaru said that they needed a decoy, so the other three could complete the mission. He said that the decoy would most probably die. Shikamaru said that he would do it, because his shadow imitation jutsu was designed to stop people. Naruto, Sakura, and Pakkun left him.
Pakkun told everyone that the Sound ninja were catching up to them. Sakura now felt worried, because Shikamaru might have just run away. The Sound ninja saw footprints, and suddenly they were unable to move. Shikamaru showed up, and said that they fell into his trap. Shikamaru was still feeling the effects of his fight, and he realised that he couldn't hold on for much longer. He threw a kunai at the enemy; however, all of his attacks were deflected by another ninja hiding in the trees.
Pakkun told everyone that the pursuers had stopped. Sakura said that she was sorry that she had doubted Shikamaru. Shikamaru's technique had stopped working, but Asuma arrived and defeated all the Sound Ninja without even breaking a sweat. Temari, Kankurō, and Gaara had now noticed that there were more people chasing them and Temari orders Kankurō to move faster. Meanwhile, the fight between the Third, and the First and Second, was about to start.

Today PyeongChang, South Korea has marked 100 days to go until the start of the 2013 Special Olympics World Winter Games, the world's largest sports and humanitarian event, with a celebration of events in Seoul and in Gangneung.
The celebration event called "Together We Walk" brought together 2013 people to do a 3km walk down the iconic Cheonggye stream in Seoul, showing the spirit of unity and inclusion that the upcoming World Winter Games will foster. Festivities included the walk, cultural events, a performance of K-Pop Idol Group, N-TRAIN, and concluded with Poppin HyunJun leading a flash mob to the Korean hit "Gangnam Style".
Korean Olympians including Yuna Kim, Sim Kwon Ho, Kim Won Ki, Lee En Chul, Jang Jeong Goo and Jang Yoon Chang also participated in the celebration of Korea preparing to host the world's most inspiring sporting event in just over three months time. The official theme song of the 2013 Special Olympics World Winter Games was also unveiled and sung by Lee Juck. The theme song was produced by Korean music director, Lee Byeong Woo, who has produced music scores of several famous Korean films such as "King and the Clown".
This and other high-resolution images of the celebration are available for media use at: Photos on Flickr
"With 100 days to go to until the start of the World Winter Games, Special Olympics athletes from more than 100 countries are training to showcase their abilities on this international stage in PyeongChang," said Timothy Shriver, Chairman and CEO of Special Olympics. "Korea is opening its arms to people with intellectual disabilities and showing the world what our athletes are capable of achieving, both on and off the playing field. In 100 days, lives will be changed, dreams will become realities and we hope more acceptance will be found worldwide."
The 10th Special Olympics World Winter Games will be held in PyeongChang, Korea from 29 January to 5 February 2013, at the same site where the 2018 Winter Olympics will be held. Media are invited to register now to cover the Games in PyeongChang this coming January. Media who cannot attend but can help spread awareness are encouraged to contact Special Olympics for details on satellite feed options, photos and stories available to the press.
The World Winter Games will feature more than 3,000 Special Olympics athletes and coaches from over 100 countries who will compete in seven Olympic-type sports: alpine skiing, cross country skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, short track speed skating, figure skating, floor hockey and also a demonstration sport of floor ball.
These World Winter Games will showcase the unlimited potential of people with intellectual disabilities – the largest disability population in the world.
Every two years, thousands of Special Olympics athletes worldwide come together to showcase their athletic skills and celebrate the spirit of Special Olympics, which holds over 50,000 competitions a year. The first Special Olympics World Games took place in 1968 and since then Special Olympics World Games have evolved into a world-class sporting event, attracting a wide range of sponsors, supporters and media. Alternating between Summer Games and Winter Games, Special Olympics World Games bring public attention to the talents and capabilities of people with intellectual disabilities, helping to change attitudes and break down barriers that excluded them from the mainstream of the community.
Special Olympics is an international organization that changes lives through the power of sport by empowering people with intellectual disabilities, promoting acceptance for all, and fostering communities of understanding and respect worldwide.
Founded in 1968 by Eunice Kennedy Shriver, the Special Olympics movement has grown from a few hundred athletes to 4 million athletes in 170 countries worldwide, providing year-round sports training, athletic competition and related programs. Special Olympics events take place daily, changing the lives of people with intellectual disabilities all over the world. Special Olympics provides people with intellectual disabilities the opportunity to realize their potential, develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, and experience joy and friendship.
Engage with us on:
The 2013 Special Olympics World Winter Games will be held from 29 January to 5 February 2013 in PyeongChang, Korea, the hub of winter sports. It will be the largest Special Olympics World Winter Games featuring seven categories of sports including alpine skiing, cross country skiing, snow boarding, snow shoeing, speed skating, figure skating, floor hockey, and demo sport floorball. The Games will demonstrate unity as they overcome differences of region, borders, political belief, age, race and religion. More information is available at the 2013 World Winter Games official website: http://www.2013sopoc.org

- Sort by:
National Great Rivers Museum
Located adjacent to the Melvin Price Locks and Dam, this museum is dedicated to telling the story of the Mississippi River, from its colorful history to its modern-day role as a major transportation corridor. The museum features kid-friendly, interactive and computer animated exhibits. Steer a towboat through the locks and dam via simulator, measure your water consumption or come face-to-face with river fish in the aquarium.
Confederate Prison Site
Built in 1833, Alton houses Illinois' first state penitentiary. During the Civil War, the facility imprisoned thousands of Confederate soldiers. Partial remains of the structure can still be observed today.
Confederate Cemetery and Memorial
This monument remembers those who died in the infamous Alton prison. A smallpox virus spread rapidly through the Alton Prison in 1863, killing more than 1,435 incarcerated soldiers. The soldiers are laid to rest here and each of their names is commemorated at the Memorial. The Alton Prison and Confederate Cemetery are some of the rare northernmost monuments to the Confederate Soldier.
Lincoln-Douglas Square
The final debate of Stephan A. Douglas and Abraham Lincoln took place in front of Alton's city hall at the corner of Broadway and Market Streets. The senatorial debate drew national attention along with more that 6,000 visitors. Life-like statues of the two statesmen keep the famous series of debates in 1858 frozen forever in time.
Lovejoy Monument
This monument memorializes Elijah P. Lovejoy, whose work and death in Alton gave him a place in history for the abolition of slavery. During the slavery era, Elijah Lovejoy was a pastor who wrote anti-slavery editorials so controversial he became an object of hatred by slaveholders. Despite threats to his life, he continued his anti-slavery writings in the Alton Observer, even after three of his printing presses were thrown into the Mississippi River. It was this persistence that led an angry pro-slavery mob to attack and kill him in 1837.
Robert Wadlow Statue
In 1918, Alton became the famous birthplace of Robert Wadlow, "The Gentle Giant." Born a normal eight pounds in 1918, Wadlow suffered from a pituitary gland problem. He was almost nine feet tall and 500 pounds when he died of complications from a foot infection at age 22. He is noted in the Guinness Book of World Records as the tallest man alive. A life-sized statue on College Avenue lifts visitors' heads in amazement. The Alton Museum of History and Art have devoted an entire room to Wadlow, including his third-grade desk and oversized grade school ring.
Lincoln & Civil War Legacy Trail
Walk in the footsteps of Abraham and Mary Todd Lincoln, and Civil War soldiers from both North and South. Experience the life of young Lincoln as a lawyer, duelist and orator. It was here that the final Lincoln-Douglas Debate took place, with the issue of slavery on the minds of spectators. It was here that Confederate soldiers were held captive, died and were buried. It was here that Alton resident and U.S. Senator Lyman Trumbull authored the 13th Amendment, putting an end to slavery in the United States. Experience the 11 historic sites interpreted along the Lincoln & Civil War Legacy Trail.
Alton Museum of History and Art
Winged monsters, explorers, riverboats and a gentle giant. The Alton Museum of History & Art shows the crossroads of American history in Alton. The museum is located in the historic Loomis Hall across from the Wadlow statue. Loomis Hall is the oldest building in the state of Illinois continuously utilized for education. One of the most popular rooms, the Wadlow Room, pays tribute to Alton's "Gentle Giant" and the World's Tallest Man. The Pioneer Room explores the history of Alton from the Lewis & Clark Expedition to the Civil War with exhibits on Elijah Lovejoy, the Lincoln-Douglas Debates and the "Alton Route" on the Underground Railroad. Hours: Wednesday - Saturday 10 a.m. - 4 p.m., Sunday 1 - 4 p.m.
Alton Hauntings Tours
Based on the book Haunted Alton by Troy Taylor, Alton Hauntings Tours offers an entertaining and spine-tingling trip into the unknown, taking visitors to the most authentic haunted places in Alton. Uncover the eerie folklore, ghostly tales and documented haunted spots on a three-hour walking tour of the city's most haunted sites. Visitors will see sites that have become nationally known, like the old Alton penitentiary, First Unitarian Church, Enos Sanitarium and many others. The tours have been proven to be popular with ghost enthusiasts and history buffs alike, and nowhere else can you learn as much about the real, haunted history of Alton. Walking tours and bus tours are offered during two touring seasons – Spring & Summer and the Haunted Fall Season. Private tours are also available for groups of 20 or more. Reservations must be made in advance for all tours.
Mineral Springs Haunted Tours
Take an eight-block tour of some of the haunted locations in downtown Alton, investigate the four floors of the Mineral Springs Hotel, be part of a seance and top the evening off with a tarot card reading. All tours begin and end at the Mineral Springs Mall. Tour options include New Moon Haunted Tours, Waking the Dead Walking Tours, Cemetery Tours and Haunted Overnights.
J.E. Robinson Underground Railroad Tours
In the early 1800s, Alton became a safe haven for slaves escaping from the bonds of slavery. Because of the area's neighboring slave state of Missouri, runaways found refuge in the free land surrounding Alton. The tunnels of the Underground Railroad run deep beneath the streets along the "Alton Route." The area was a major stop along the Underground Railroad, hiding slaves in caves, barns and basements throughout Alton, Otterville and Jerseyville.

Economic opportunity
Markets, whether large or small, keep communities thriving. But conflicts, disasters and a lack of infrastructure can prevent people from conducting the daily transactions on which all growth and progress depend. Around the world, Mercy Corps discovers why commerce is stuck.
In some places, manufacturers need loans to purchase equipment and young people desire job skills. In others, key transportation routes to market must be rebuilt or farmers require better storage to keep their inventory fresh until sold.
Our economic development projects provide financing, equipment, training or technical support. These projects help people find jobs, build their businesses, supply their communities with the goods they need —and improve their lives.

You know everyone has a Special Olympics moment. Mine happened to be last year where I returned to the track at OSU for the summer games. The reason I had to step away from track is because of my back pains. It hurts so much sometimes to the point where I almost black out but last year at OSU, I won the gold and that was my most remarkable victory at OSU. The best in people doesn't mean to just go to state one year and win the gold then retire, no, no, you must keep your head held high and keep going untill you reach that dream of being the best you can be. This year in 2013 win or lose this will be my offical dream to get to go for my 14th year. I know, right, 14 years of doing this stuff. I love this stuff even though there may be moments where I'm like, omg, I quit, I can't do this. But then I sit myself down and pray to Jesus and I believe that after I say amen that I say to myself, let's get out there and let's do this as a team and say sorry for my mistakes. That is what you got to do 2 win.

At Baptist Health, women have a place they can turn for compassionate, quality healthcare throughout all stages of their lives. We offer both inpatient and outpatient services that address nearly any medical need, across the continuum of a woman's life.
Baptist Medical Center South recently received two American Heart Association top performance awards for quality of care under the association's Get With The Guidelines in hospital-based quality improvement programs and is a Blue Cross Center of Distinction.
From carpal tunnel syndrome to the knee pain you've had since playing high school sports, Baptist Health offers a wide array of orthopaedic services to central Alabama to help you overcome the pains that ail you.
Baptist Medical Center East has been named one of the nation's 100 Top Hospitals by Thomson Reuters, a leading provider of information and solutions to improve the cost and quality of healthcare. Baptist East is the only hospital in Alabama to receive this designation. The Thomson Reuters 100 Top Hospitals® study evaluates performance in 10 areas: mortality; medical complications; patient safety; average patient stay; expenses; profitability; patient satisfaction; adherence to clinical standards of care; post-discharge mortality; and readmission rates for acute myocardial infarction (heart attack), heart failure, and pneumonia. The study has been conducted annually since 1993. This is the second time Baptist East has been recognized with this honor. "We are incredibly proud of this recognition," said Peter Selman, Baptist East CEO. "We are committed to providing our community with quality healthcare and this award recognizes that dedication." Baptist Medical Center East is a 150-bed acute care hospital providing a broad range of health care services. Baptist Medical Center East is one of three hospitals which comprise Baptist Health, the largest health system in Central Alabama. Baptist Health was recently named a Thomson Reuters Top 15 Health System, a distinction that recognizes the nation's top 15 health systems for setting industry benchmarks for excellence across the healthcare spectrum. Baptist Health was the only system in Alabama to receive this prestigious recognition. To conduct the 100 Top Hospitals study, Thomson Reuters researchers evaluated 2,886 short-term, acute care, non-federal hospitals. They used public information — Medicare cost reports, Medicare Provider Analysis and Review (MedPAR) data, and core measures and patient satisfaction data from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Hospital Compare website. Hospitals do not apply, and winners do not pay to market this honor. The winning hospitals were announced in the April 16 edition of Modern Healthcare magazine. Based on comparisons between the study winners and a peer group of similar high-volume hospitals that were not winners, we found that if all hospitals performed at the level of this year's winners: • More than 186,000 additional lives could be saved. • Approximately 56,000 additional patients could be complication-free. • More than $4.3 billion could be saved. • The average patient stay would decrease by nearly half a day. More information on this study and other 100 Top Hospitals research is available at www.100tophospitals.com.

Hi all, I've been reading a bit about the Creed Aventus issues where some batches are vile and some are great...
So which are good? Which are bad? How to tell without buying first?
Thread: Aventus batch numbers |
Yep, I didnt like the bottle I ordered so I got another one with a different batch number that I liked. I set the first one aside for a while, and now that I smell it again the strong pinapple notes are back (was faint-to-none when I first smelled it). I assume it went through "delivery shock", just like cigars go through when shipped, and needed to "rest" for a while; but who knows.
Hi all, I've been reading a bit about the Creed Aventus issues where some batches are vile and some are great...
So which are good? Which are bad? How to tell without buying first?
I was just looking this up myself. I found it through a search. You should try that method.
Ah, I was using the wrong search terms. Gracias.
Anyone have any experience with A42B10K04 ?
Forza..if none of the three smell good..which batch does?????I got mine from a decant at the perfumed court and mine smells GREAT!!I have nothing to compare it to however so im not sure if there are BETTER ones out there.I emailed them about batch numbers and the one they are decanting at the moment is:C42B10J01....
For the record. Aventus has just arrived on the shleves here and I bought one (75ml / USD 150) LOT C42B11N01.
The opening is nice - and it seems to be settling pretty nicely. I have had a Creed Card Sample in my drawer for a few months and come to like it so I'll see how this feels over time and if anything interesting comes up add to the thread, altho frankly I'm not that obsessed over this one way or the either. I predict Aventus will be very popular in this part of the world during the long hot summer.

I just received my Aventus K01 batch from an online store. Upon first spray i get a hit of both fruits and ash. Both very strong. The ash smell reminds me of the smell of cigarette smoke on someones leather jacket. Anyone else get this? Top notes also heavily remind me of Chanel Bleu (which i love).
Will see how the drydown goes.

I Just noticed that get more pineapple on paper. On my skin i get more ash.
LOT C42B10K02 Unhappy...
Does anyone have this batch? I bought it from Neiman Marcus. This batch smells very smokey from the get go. I get the pineapple top note but that's about it. No french apples. No black currants. The heart notes are missing too. No rose, jasmine, or patchouli just birch. The sample I received from The Perfumed Court smells amazing. All the fruity top notes are there. As the dry down continues I can detect the birch note but it's held way back allowing plenty of room for the other heart notes to breathe. This is the Aventus I love and was expecting to get. What I ended up with reeks so much of smoke/ash that it gives me a headache. Totally unacceptable. Especially for the amount of $$$ this fragrance cost.
Does anyone here with a good bottle with all the fruity notes, get any smoke smell at all??
Jazznpool, i agree. I gave it another wear this morning and i still only get the slight pineapple opening, then the heavy leather/smokey drydown. Then gets alittle powdery after that. Nothing else. No other notes detected.
The stuff i have lasts a looooong time on my skin. Its very strong. After i showered etc it is still very detectable on my skin. Very potent stuff.
Oy Vey. Your conclusion is a gross exaggeration of reality. I wonder if you're the same guy that got bounced here a few times under yet a different name. Time will tell. You sound like his twin. He was a Creed hater too. Fortunately, Creed will go on making fine fragrances that many of us can enjoy regardless. It would be great if every batch of every fragrance was perfectly consistent at the highest level...but that is not the real world.
Obviously the problem with Creed is a lot worse than not being "perfectly consistent at the highest level". Other than that, no reason to be aggressive and silly, Jazz. Answer the arguments, don't call other people names.
Is there any other major perfume house regarding the products of which separate threads discussing gross batches inconsistencies gather hundreds of posts?
I'm very unhappy with C42B10K02. Almost identical batch numbers. Do you still have batch C42B10K03? Just wondering if the fruit notes have ripened and the annoying smokey smell has gone away.
A42B10K04 is the batch I just received when ordering a 4oz directly from the boutique. I'll wear it tomorrow and I'll report back in on this thread here while I'm at work. I don't know if this batch anyone has. LOL this is crazy. I'm scared to even open it.
Isn't there a thread specifically for this purpose?
ya, but I posted yesterday letting people know what batch to expect if you order from the boutique right now. I was hoping my post didn't get moved here because although it pertains to batch numbers, it's also inferring what you would get if you bought aventus at this point in time from the boutique.
I just received my order from the NYC Boutique- Lot number: A42B11NO1-
very ashy, zero fruit.
I called and they will exchange it, but how many times? I am beyond frustrated with this.....ready to buy Old Spice!
Last week I went to Neiman Marcus and found out there are new bottles of Aventus starting with the letter S? Has anyone recently bought Aventus that came from a lot/batch starting with the letter S?
Hey folks how would you compare Aventus batch #A42B10K02 TO #C4210E01?
If anyone has batch A42B10K02, and would like to trade a decant of it for a decant of C4210E01, I'm down.
For now I can give a detailed bit on C4210E01. So far, C4210E01 has the least ashy/smokey/birch note of all the batches I've tried, and the most Black Currant and Apple, a very "peel like" Apple note, closest to Cereus #4's "Realistic Apple Peel" of any Aventus batch. C4210E01 is my favorite fruity batch, as I wasn't a huge fan of the pineapple, but love the Apple peel, coniferous Juniper Berry, Bergamot, and the cassis is ok I guess. A4210E01 is probably the best equal balance of all 3 major fruit notes (Apple, Cassis, Pineapple), but I slightly prefer C4210E01, for letting the apple peel shine thru. I've tried all Aventus batches listed on basenotes either thru first hand testing or decants, except the new batches beginning in "S", and batch A42B10K02. As well as two batches I have no interest in trying: C42B10K04, A42B10J02....both of which have been reported by multiple noses I trust here and on crystal flacon as very weak, ashy batches. Thanks to everyone out there on youtube and crysta flacon and especially here on Basenotes for being honest, and holding Creed accountable for such inconsistency.
A42b10k03 is rich in Pineapple and "Vanilla", not so much on apple or birch...... is A42b10k02 likewise, or with a different emphasis ?

Sometimes I think all this batch number stuff is just people's imagination, but then I remember trying like hell to find a bottle of Himalaya that smelled like the sample someone gave me-- I must have tried ten different Himalayas, including a tester at Nieman Marcus, and I had to just give up and call it a day. I know the frustration.
As much as I want to call it a quality control issue, I just don't know. Obviously, their perfumes do contain some synthetics-- so there shouldn't be any variances there. With natural materials, of course, there are always differences.
For what it's worth, when I sampled Aventus at NM, I didn't care for it at first, because the topnotes were kind of weak and bland, but then an hour later I really started to notice the drydown-- it had a lot of birch tar smokiness, which I liked quite a bit. I was expecting one thing but got something else with this one. Don't know what the batch number was.
How about everybody call Creed NY tomorrow and complain about Aventus batch variation. I'm sure with 100 calls in one day, they'll get the message.
Done. Everybody call when you read this for the next few weeks. A general complaint is strength/longevity....and general inconsistency and weakness/lack of strength....in aventus and much of the rest of the line for the last 18-24 months. Add whatever else you feel. But do call.

Excellent post and I agree that C4210e01 is probably the best batch yet, the new one I received A4210BK02 is very good also but I notice I'n the middle notes the birch is a lot stronger and smells almost like rubber Not a huge difference but you can definitely
tell the difference.
I respectfully disagree sir, there are definitely differences I'n variation when it comes to notes, sillage, and longevity. I will say this though I only notice batch differences with aventus, mi, and git. The rest have been extremely consistent for me over the years. I cant understand why though....

I just received my 50ml decant of this exact batch from the a split Ash just hosted and just from initially spraying a napkin i can see there is literally no pineapple detected after 10minutes and very smokey. Obvously this is not Ash's is fault by any means since he has no control of this, but i am extremely disappointed to have spent my hard earned money and stuck with something i don't know if i will be wearing. I still have some of my 30ml decant left that i received from Dullah back in December and it's like im smelling almost 2 different scents.
I will give this a full wearing and report back to you all , but dam i do not want to walk around smelling like an fkn ash tray
This topic is hilarious.
Plunging down all this money for an inconsistent product that smells like fruit.
If you want to smell fruity, go for a new designer fragrance.
I don't want to piss off Creed fans or Aventus fans, but this amateurism of Creed makes no sense at all.
I wouldn't even want to spend 1 dollar on such a company.
Lucy (Lucille Ball) had a much better solution:
Sshhh, be careful, remember Woody Allen's semi-obscure, quasi-futuristic masterpiece Sleeper.
At some point the "hero," played by Woody Allen himself, uses a humongous strawberry to kill a man.
you can see what a Royal Banana looks like (0:35).
Do you realize what kind of hurt a Creed Royal Pineapple could cause, in the angry yet capable hands of disgruntled pseudo-royalty?
The mind shudders.
I am giving my decant it's first wearing today and im having trouble detecting it on me. It's batch C42B10KO3. I'll let you know if anyone else notices it on me, but i sprayed it on pretty heavey but really can not detect any fragrances on me, so i guess i'm suffereing from what others have mentioned where the scent comes and goes?
Just got back from the King of Prussia Mall in PA. I first stopped at Nordstrom's and asked if they had Aventus. The woman said, "I wish we did. We had three people already today asking for it". I knew then that finding an old batch would be difficult. After that I went to Neiman Marcus where I had purchased a bottle of C4210E01 the first week it was available. I told the woman I was looking for some of that batch number. We checked all their bottles, but no go. Every bottle from the smallest to the flacons were from known bad batches. Of course the tester was C4210E01. I should have taken it and ran. lol There will be some disappointed people who smelled the tester and got the ashy bottles.
So far this has not been a good experience for my first wearing. I literally detect zero fragrance at all and haven't all morning. I just feel like i'm not wearing anything. I asked someone to take a sniff and they said it smelted great, however i smell NOTHING.
Whats the enjoyment if i can't even smell it? This is not the case with the other decant i have. I sprayed pretty heavy as well.
So what batch number amd i tryign to track down if i want the fruity notes and the strength that some people have that gives them 8-10+hrs? I don't mind the ash note but i just want a batch better blended so i can detect the fruits as well. Currently i have a 50ml decant of C42B10KO3, and i feel this one has the pineapple note but it seems to come and go a bit and is a bit too ashy but not as bad as some other batches.
have only ever gotten one bottle of a certain creed so far. GIT, MI, and Aventus. I am waiting till the next time when I buy all new bottles for these and see if there really is SUUUUUUUCH a big difference in the fragrance. It makes no sense to give a fragrance a name if it always smells different every time you buy it? Right? It shouldn't have a name brand such as Creed, but instead something like morphological EDT
also who else is selling this outside of neimens and creed boutique? i checked several online dealers and none seem to have it.
I contacted the Creed boutique and the current batches of 4oz bottles of Aventus they have in stock are the ones that have been labled on this site as the "ashy" batch with little to no fruit. It sucks that we don't have more options of places to purchase this, i checked with Neimens as well, and the batch they have falls in this category as well. I guess there are no current batches circulating that are worthy of purchasing? I really would like to find a pretty good one so i can just buy it and get this over with! I do like the scent a lot and still enjoy the decant of C42B10KO3, but i want more fruit!

So far so good Written By Joe, Walkersville, MD on Thursday, June 20, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I was worried after reading all of the negative reviews but this was the only option for my eclipse unit. Keeping the other reviews in mind installed the so that I could take laptop out and reprogram the unit if needed. So far I have no issues at all. I will say that the best install instructions are a review on another site. I am including 1. Down load the XM direct software from [...] 2. Plug in your CNP2000UC (the XM adapter thing), your computer should prompt you to install software. - Choose the second option that says "Install from a list or specific location (advanced)" and press Next - Click the box that says "Include this location in the search" and browse or type in the path "C:\Program Files\XM Direct 2" and press next - That should get you the the XM Universal Board v3 programing that you need. 3. Now the hard part DON'T use the instructions that pop up when you click on the short cut that gets installed on your desk top. Instead go to my computer > C: > Program Files > XM Direct 2 > usbprog Use the "usbprog" to program your unit. 4. You may have to use the Direct File Select option if the list of car stereo models is to long to show on the screen, if you do the path you will need is: my computer > C: > Program Files > XM Direct 2 > HEADUNITS > YourBrand > YourModel Once the blue bar runs across the bottom of the usbprog window then your unit is programed! Pros: Quick and easy to connect to radio. Works well Cons: The instructions that come in the box. That's why I included better ones above
Most frustrating piece of junk....ever. Written By Williams, Allentown, PA on Sunday, January 13, 2013 I've delt with this junk long enough, and it's finally time to voice my complete displeasure with this absolutely worthless unit. I don't normally rate items, but this junk has brought me to this... those who wrote good reviews obviously haven't owned the unit long enough to have experianced the little surprises this unit has in store. The unit was easy to install, and worked wonderfully for about three months. Once the honeymoon was over, however, the unit would suddenly flash "No Signal" and die. over the past year, I'ver become very proficiant at removing my Alpine head unit and disconnecting the power lead to the XM receiver, reconnecting, reinstalling, and reprogramming all of my stations. I can perform this task in about 10 minutes. The fact that I've gotten so friggin good at this task goes to show what a complete piece of garbage this unit is. If Crutchfield cares about carrying quality items, this unit should be on the chop and discard list. One star is a stretch....if i could have put a "-" in front of the star, I would have. BUYER BEWARE.....LOOK AT OTHER OPTIONS, AND USE THIS AS LAST RESORT ONLY. Pros: ease of installation Cons: you name it, this unit screams 'Cons'. Read entire review above. this thing sucks.
This unit is junk! Written By William, Charlottesville, VA on Wednesday, December 19, 2012 If find it hard to give this unreliable unit one star. It has quit working 3 times. I am hoping Crutchfield will have a NEW solution. Pros: Sometimes it works. Cons: It fails. it fails. it fails.
Frustrated SiriusXM subscriber Written By G. Hall, Marion, IL on Friday, October 05, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) What an unmitigated piece of electronic JUNK. Ordered the unit on 3/25/11. I repeatedly tried to program/update the receiver for my Kenwood head unit, but it would never work for more than a few seconds. I called Crutchfield and they sent me a sent a new tuner and installation kit claiming the USB cable was a known issue. After another frustrating few hours of attempting to get the unit to work, I removed the unit from my Dakota and left the piece of junk wrapped in a bag with the rest of the associated parts where it gathers dust to this day. Cons: Junk
Unable to Use Written By Okie A, OKC, Ok on Thursday, September 20, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The software is so far out of date I am suprised it didn't come on a floppy disc. I am unable to program the reciever. In this day and age of computers i was blown away by the antiquainted software you have to download. Even after spending 2 hours correcting the failed installation it still failed to update the reciever.This has nothing to do with Crutchfield but maybe they should stop selling this item until they get it fixed Pros: unknown Cons: Its been a week and I still cant get it to work. I guess I'll send it back
Piece of Crap Written By Philip, Jackson, WY on Thursday, August 09, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Worked for 3 months then intermittently lost signal then died. Reprogrammed, removed, reinstalled. worked for 2 days then died. Cruthfield was great. Sent a new one along with cable to JVC unit just in case. Second unit died in same fashion in 3 months. Went to local stero shop who said they will not stock this product because it sucks and they have had to eat labor on replacing. They recommended using a blutooth XM anywhere unit. I see there a bunch more similar experiences since I bought the stero and XM tuner. Pros: none Cons: pulling unit out is a pain every time it dies.
This product will fail and will need reprogramming Written By Jeff, Dublin, Ohio on Monday, July 23, 2012 it is easy to install and it will probably work for a while, but it will eventually fail and it will need to be reprogrammed. Mine has failed 5 times over the course of a year and a half. Make certain to use IE to program it. It may even report that a program is already loaded, but you need to re-load it often, so install it somewhere that is readily accessible. Mine is connected to a JVC receiver... the JVC works fine. Pros: works sometimes; when it works, it works perfectly. Cons: it will fail and need to be reprogrammed at random intervals.
XM Direct2 Tuner Written By terrym324, hot springs,ar on Monday, June 18, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Item had to be returned. It was not truely compatable with the Sony Ready Radio. Would not allow CD's to be played from the multi-changer and other working features were not available after installation.
Worthless Written By Scarymar, Sarasota, FL on Monday, April 30, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I'd be giving this thing a -10 if that was a choice. I am now on my 2nd unit - having had to pull and re-program the 1st one 5 times in less than 1 year. Loved the JVC KW-NY3HDT head unit but this receiver is the pits. Now I am less than 2 months into the replacement and it drops the signal yet again. Pull the dash- I think not. Pulled the fuse but you loose all the settings. For the record this is my 3rd aftermarket receiver - my son has had his almost 4 years now and NEVER had this crap to put up with. VERY DISAPPOINTED!!! BTW - Programming will not work with VISTA operating systems, but works fine on Windows 7 - not very user friendly I will admit, but doable. Pros: When it works I get XM radio! Cons: It quits working ALL THE TIME.
Works Great Written By Michale, Dayton, FL on Monday, April 02, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I was hesitant to order this due to the reviews on the site, but gave it a try anyway. I went to the Audiovox website for detailed information on installing and was up and running in 30 minutes. So far everything works great. Cons: Has to be programmed by consumer.
Piece of Junk Written By Ron, Lexington, KY on Monday, April 02, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I purchased a wonderful Kenwood XM receiver and speakers from Crutchfield. Unfortunately, the weak link in the system is this XM Tuner. The first one worked for ~1 month and quit for no apparent reason. The second one worked for 4 days, to say I am ticked is an understatement. Pros: It is flammable Cons: Everything about this unit, poorly constructed, poor software set-up Windows XP really and finally how does a device lose it's programming?
Terrible Written By James g, Nj on Monday, March 26, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Huge piece of garbage. Finally works. Really just a terrible product Pros: Packed nicely Cons: Not one instruction regarding wiring. A very poor product
XM Direct2 Tuner Written By rickey b, tupelo, ms on Monday, March 12, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) love the cnp2000uca and xm direct2 tuner for my alpine cda 9853 , and everything worked great , it fix behind my radio nicely and it was priced at a good price. Thank you crutchfield and my advisor dasiy was great with the information i need about there product and my alpine radio. Pros: great price and product works great Cons: The frist unit was bad , but got another one ship had to wait 2 days ,but they made it good
Mixed Feelings Written By Tom, So Cal on Monday, March 12, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I bought this unit to go with my JVC radio which I also bought from Crutchfield. After reading all the reviews and instructions thoroughly, I followed all the steps to the "T" and made sure that I did the software upgrade using Microsoft XP. If you're not running XP, I guess you're out of luck...fortunately, I still have an old laptop with XP on it so it worked fine for me. The install was easy and the components are small enough to conceal during installation. The unit worked great for the first 30 days without any problems. Then suddenly one day it just stopped working. I returned the unit and bought a Pioneer XM receiver to go with a new Pioneer radio I also bought. Pros: Small components are easy to hide Cons: 1) Stopped functioning after on 30 days 2) Requires MS XP to perform software upgrade 3) Expensive when compared to others, + extra for special cables (double the price of a comparable Pioneer package)
THE WORST Written By MKHAMMDO, Coastal Georgua on Monday, February 06, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is the worst piece of electronic equipment I have ever purchased! The instructions are not for the unit they actually sent, the wiring is completely different. The unit has to be "Programmed" prior to installation. I am very computer savy and I was not able to program it after several hours of trying. From other reviews apparently it has to be programmed using a laptop, running internet explorer and it has to be using Windows XP ONLY ! I am sorry but I don't live in 2002, and I don't have access to such a device. I am really shocked that Crutchfield would sell such a piece. DO NOT BUY THIS DEVICE !!!!!! Pros: None Cons: Useless instructions, Has to be "Programmed prior to installation. Impossible to program. WASTE of time and money,
Buyer beware Written By Lymelizzard, WNC on Tuesday, December 27, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This product is utter rubbish. Cheap flimsy plastic, have to download software. After the download you have to have access to winxp computer with internet explorer only. After several call to Crutch field and rma's etc I phoned Kenwood had a 348-u head-unit and head unit rocks but..... The supplied software for the head unit from audiovox was corrupt.........Kenwood advised to use a different software than for my radio and it work for a month or so. Pros: XM, when it works Cons: It's a poor poor performer. Audiovox and XM should be embarrassed to put this out for sale or be associated with it.
Easy Install Written By Chris B, Houston, TX on Tuesday, September 27, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This was a very easy install. Connecting the 2 wires to the navigation head unit was easy, just matched the colors, and the cable connection uses a unique connector. It took some time to run the antenna cable. I had to go around the sunroof and went out through the third brake light rubber mounts. Very easy to pass the thin antenna through this rubber mount (Nissan Frontier Pickup).
Buyer beware - Awful instructions Written By MidloRichard, Midlothian, TX on Sunday, September 04, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Took about 6 hours to install. I know what I am doing, but apparently the technical writers at Audiovox do not. They do not tell you that the only way to program this is to use Windows IE. In fact, they tell you very little about programming it, unless you go to the Internet. Also, the head unit-specific cable comes with a black and yellow wire and the instructions say NOTHING about them. I figured out what to do with them after googling the unit and reading the complaints. Yellow goes to switch power, black goes to ground/chassis. After that, the unit works fine. Hopefully it work longer than what others say their experience was. Good luck. Hats off to Crutchfield Technical Service. They solved 2 problems very quickly over the phone ON A HOLIDAY WEEKEND. These guys know what they are doing!
old hat technology Written By Mike, Colorado Springs, CO on Tuesday, June 28, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I know better than to buy something without reading the details about it, but this one I missed. The requirements necessary to download the binary file for the adapter are from the 1900's. I had to pay an extra $10 to have it loaded after talking to some computer stores, insuring they had what was required to download the .msi file. A Tech Support group at a local office supply store could not do it. Their reason was "it must be a defective unit." So, I called Crutchfield asking for help. They readily agreed to send a replacement. This time I went to a local computer parts store, who had all the necessary items to download the program...and well worth the $10 to have it done. It works just fine now, and there are no more issues with mating to the XM radio receiver I purchased. Now that I've bought this, I see it is being discontinued. Not my lucky day when I purchased it.
XM Tuner Written By Jerry, Austin on Thursday, June 02, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great product. You have to download the config program from the internet and configure the unit, but it is simple to use.
XM Direct 2 Tuner Written By Mikek, Greensboro, NC on Thursday, November 25, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I wanted XM to be controlled thru my head unit; it meets my expectations. Crutchfield provided first class service to receive and respond to my questions. Recommended!
XM Direct2 Tuner Written By Gilbert H, Houston, TX on Tuesday, October 26, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) very easy to installed been waiting almost a year to add XM radio to my JVC radio, love it!
XM Direct2 Tuner Written By Eric, Chesapeake Beach, MD. on Thursday, September 09, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Ordered the MX Direct2 Tuner package from Crutchfield a couple of weeks ago. First off, let me say that the customer service, when I called, was excellent. Since I wasn't sure of what I needed, I told them that I wanted to hook up XM radio to my Alpine 9884 car stereo. Within a few seconds, the gentleman on the line directed me to the Crutchfield website that had what I needed so I could review it. After that, I placed the order, which was very quick, and within a couple of minutes, my order was placed. After the order was placed, I received an email within 2 hrs saying that my order had already shipped (That was a Thursday). And by the next day around 4pm, my kit was sitting on my doorstep (granted, they are located in VA., and I live in MD., so it may take an extra day or two if you live in the midewest or the west coast). I am very pleased with Crutchfield's service and will definitely be using them again in the future. By the way, my kit worked perfectly as well.
