As the course was well marked it was not challenging at all. The longest hole was a little over 400 feet, yet there is a ton of room to make the holes a little bit longer. There could even be more holes. However, this course is great for beginers or those looking to work on their approach shots.

More Than 400 People Arrested At Gasparilla Parade
Published January 31st, 2010
More than 400 alcohol-fueled people celebrating Saturday's Gasparilla parade were arrested in Tampa.
Tampa police said most of the arrests were alcohol-related misdemeanors. Other arrests included battery on a law enforcement officer, fake ids, drug charges and battery on a police horse.
Two dozen people were taken to jail. The rest were released and given notice to appear in court.
Police said seven juveniles face alcohol charges. Officials
attributed the low number of juvenile arrests to an extensive
education campaign in area high schools about a new zero tolerance

Southeast University (simplified Chinese: 东南大学; traditional Chinese: 東南大學; pinyin: Dōngnán Dàxué, SEU), colloquially Dongda (Chinese: 东大; pinyin: Dōngdà) is a public research university located in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, China. It is one of the oldest universities and the first coeducational university in China.[4] It is a member of both Project 985 and Project 211, and sponsored by the Ministry of Education of China aiming to become a well-known world-class university.[4]
SEU has been ranked among the top 20 research universities in China,[5][6] and among the top 500 in the world.[7] In the official subject ranking conducted by the Ministry of Education of China, SEU has been ranked top three nationally in 8 fields including architecture, landscape architecture, urban planning, art history, civil engineering, electronic engineering, transportation engineering and biomedical engineering.[8]
Its predecessor, Sanjiang Normal College, was established in 1902 as a modern university on the campus of an academy which dates back to 258. In 1921, the school changed its name to National Southeast University and became the second national university in China. Later SEU was renamed to National Central University in 1927 and soon became the nation's flagship university.[9] In 1952, the university was split into eight institutions during the communism revolution. And its engineering school, the largest school in terms of faculty number and student enrollment,[10] stayed in its original campus and form Nanjing Institute of Technology, which changed its name back to Southeast University in 1988.

The Imperial Nanjing School, the highest educational institution of kingdom, as the predecessor, was founded in CE 258 in the period of the Three Kingdoms. The imperial school enjoyed the same campus with the current Southeast University since the 14th year of Hongwu reign (CE 1381) in Ming dynasty.
Sanjiang Normal College (1902–1905)[edit]
At the end of the 19th century, under the domination of Qing Dynasty, the Chinese society was under the situation of domestic trouble and foreign invasion. 1901, the Qing government began to reform under this situation, and in 1902 issued 'The imperial rules for colleges', and adapted the new modern education system. On May, 30th of the same year, the Liangjiang governor Kunyi Liu submitted a document of preparing colleges to the Qing government, proposing to open normal college in Jiangning (now: Nanjing). In February 1903, the following Liangjiang governor Zhidong Zhang submitted a proposal to open Sanjiang Normal College to government, and authorize Quansun Miu as a representative to Japan for investigation, who later was norminated as the inspector of Sanjiang Normal College and responsible for the project preparation. In September 1903, Sanjiang Normal College was officially started.
Liangjiang Normal College (1905–1911)[edit]
Due to the ambiguous meaning of the college name which led to several disputes, the Sanjiang Normal College was named as Liangjiang Normal College in 1905. The year after, Ruiqing Li was nominated as the principal, who closed the junior normal subjects, and added the public subjects, professional subjects, and also created the first hand-painting subject in China. Until 1907, there had already been Geography-History department, Chinese-Foreign Language Department, Mathematic-Physics- Chemistry Department, and Agriculture Department. At the end of 1911, due to the breaking out of Xinhai Revolution, Liangjiang Normal College was almost closed.
National Nanjing Higher Normal School (1915–1923)[edit]
On 15 July 1914, Guojun Han nominated Qian Jiang as the principal, who was responsible for the starting up of Nanjing Higher Normal School in the same site of Liangjiang Normal College. Qiang Jiang employed a U.S scholar Bingwen Guo as the dean of teaching, Rong Chen as the advisor, and sent both of them to the Europe to investigate the education system and recruit new teachers. On 10 September 1915, Nanjing Higher Normal School was officially started. In December 1919, Nanjing Higher Normal School formally recruited 8 female students and 50 more female visiting students, being the first school in China allowing both females and males to study together.
National Southeast University (1921–1924)[edit]
In September 1918, Guo Bingwen was the president in the south division. On 7 April 1920, Guo Bingwen proposed at the school meeting in the South high-division, in favor of the foundation of the "Southeast University Preparatory Committee.",based on the founder of a national university. In September, Guo Bingwen proposed to the State Council and the Ministry of Education to apply for the establishment of Southeast University, and in December it was approved. On 6 June 1921, the Board of Southeast University was established, Guo Bingwen as president, and the university was officially opening in September. In December, the school council decided that Nanjing Higher Normal School would be incorporated into the Southeast University. Southeast University, based on the foundation of Nanjing Normal Higher School, until 1923, had possessed arts and sciences, Education, engineering, agriculture, business totaling more than 20 lines in 5 subjects.
National Hohai Technology University (1924–1927)[edit]
In 1924, the engineering school of National Southeast University merged with the water conservancy school Hohai Engineering School to form National Hohai Technology University, with Mao Yisheng as president.
National Central University (1927–1949)[edit]
In 1927, National Hohai Technology University along with several other schools merged with National Southeast University to form the later National Central University.
National Nanjing University (1949–1952)[edit]
At the beginning of 1949, some professors did not flee to Taiwan. In April 1949, the People Liberation Army occupied Nanjing and the Nanjing Military Committee took over the National Central University. On Aug, 8th, 1949, The name of National Central University was changed to National Nanjing University, until October 1950, the name was changed to Nanjing University again.
Nanjing Institute of Technology (NIT, 1952–1988)[edit]
In 1952, People's Republic of China began a national adjustment of its colleges. In Nanjing, the adjustment was mainly on Nanjing University and University of Nanking. Nanjing Institute of Technology was formed in the original site of National Central University from the previous Engineering Department (at the time, the biggest department) of Nanjing University and Agriculture Department of University of Nanking, also including Chemistry Department and Electrical Machine Department. Later there were also some relevant subjects from Jiaotong University, Zhejiang University, Shandong University, Xiamen University, Fudan University, and Private Jiangnan University merged into Nanjing Institute of Technology.
Southeast University (1988 – present)[edit]
In June 1988, Nanjing Institute of Technology was renamed as 'Southeast University', starting to convert from a technology institute to a technology-featured comprehensive university.

In 2007, Southeast University was listed 443rd among world universities.[17]
There are 3 main campuses of Southeast University namely Sipailou Campus, Jiulonghu campus and Dingjaiqiao campus. Sipailou (Xuanwu District) and Dingjiaqiao campus (Gulou district) are in Nanjing city and Jiulonghu campus in suburbs of Nanjing( Jiangning District).
The Sipailou Campus of Southeast University is the flagship campus that is inherited from National Central University. It is located at 2 Sipailou, Nanjing, China. In 1988, Pukou Campus which located in Pukou Campus across the Yangtze River was opened as another site mainly for the education of first and second year students (freshman and sophomores). However, in 2008 Pukou Campus was separated from Southeast University and was then acquired by Cheng Xian Institute.
In 2001, SEU acquired three other colleges in Nanjing. They are: Nanjing Railway Medical College, Nanjing College of Advanced Transportation, as well as Nanjing Advanced School of Geology. Nanjing Railway Medical College became the School of Medicine at Southeast University after it merged with SEU. The medical school is located in Dingjiaqiao.
In 2005 when Jiulonghu Campus which located in Jiangning District was founded, the authority of Pukou Campus was transferred to the Chengxian College of Southeast University. Most of the undergraduate students and master students are studying at Jiulonghu Campus currently. After Jiulonghu Campus was opened, the Sipailou Campus basically includes some most important research institutes and administrations of the university. Jiulonghu Campus is situated in the south of the Jiangning Technology Development District, to the east of Suyuan Avenue, west of Shuanglong Street, and south of Jiyin Street. It is around 20 kilometers away from the Sipailou Campus, with an area of 3749mu. The architecture design of Jiulonghu Campus follows the basis of Southeast University's culture, characterized in the combination of public teaching and research which compromises the merit of Chinese and Western styles, forming a green and active university community. The total building area in Jiulonghu Campus is 574 thousand square meters with the investment of 1.6 billion yuan.

Understood. Who's the manufacturer of this part, I ask as there is only a part code and no name. A search with digi-key shows two different Companies with the same product code IRFP250 but with different specs & both out of stock. As the others are STMicroelectronics parts I'd say this is also theirs?
If you do have one available, I'll be happy to send a paypal payment for it plus covering p&p and fees

sure that there are in stock, I can send you a couple if you also want the res-fuse, np, as I said before, I wanted to refund this expense. remains the problem of shipping. (if you need something else, I'm available) |

International Rectifier, now I've seen the thier logo I can just make it out on the the mosfet... IvR or something close.
Lots in stock at digi-key so everything ok Thanks for your help and patience. I'll update once I've got the parts & have the two dps-600's back up and running.

So Close...
I really hate trying to find parts... I can't find the IR's IRFP250 which the data sheet says is a third generation HEXFET part... I have got an IRFP250M(PbF) which is IR's fith generation version. Shows A very slight variation within the datasheet...
Vishay do a IRFP250(PdF) which, as far as I can tell, is identical to International Rectifier's 3rd gen part used on the dps-600. AP2, can I use the IRFP250M or better getting the Vishay part?

Hi Roberto,
I'm up to working on a heatsink temp threshold circuit to trigger DPS600 protection circuit. If I have open collector LM339 comparator pulled up to 3V during normal operation, when temp input (TMP36) exceeds reference, comparator output connects to ISO gnd. Hysteresis needed to prevent amp from being re-enabled after protection triggers, until temp drops sufficiently. Is that the intended operation for this connection? Cheers, Chris |

I remember that you're using a logic that affects the remote control (2 pins), then you already have an isolator actuator. Close the remote control when the temp is higher. this is better, because it puts the DPS-600 as dead. in both cases, you must provide a latch (remains closed until the temperature is high). ----------------------------------- Break ISO pin, can be used to stop very quickly, eg. Fast photocoupler/circuit (OC) for overcurrent in amplifier. This breaks only the operation of the PWM. The remote control does two things. pwm break and disable / reset startup circuit. regards Roberto Last edited by AP2; 13th November 2012 at 08:51 PM. |

Arguably one of the most recognizable of the Abstract Expressionists, Jackson Pollock was an influential American painter who enjoyed considerable fame and notoriety during his lifetime. A reclusive artist with a famously volatile personality, he struggled with alcoholism for most of his life. In 1945, he married the artist Lee Krasner, who became an important influence on his career and legacy.

New Laptop General Laptop Advice
Hi all
Hopefully not posting an already answered topic !
I pretty new to Linux and completely new to Audio work (currently running Ubuntu on Desktop) and looking for a laptop. I would like to use 64 Studio to tinker around with recording some classical performances (wife is a soprano) usually consisting of Piano / Voice sometimes organ which hopefully will then go onto our website with video etc.......
I am looking to buy laptop and this is one of the uses together with some web development stuff (when I start to learn it !) and would appreciate any general advice and what to lookout for / laptop recommendation's
My budget is pretty thin £300 - £400 ish mark, so dont want to make a mistake ! Would then have to save up for any external mixing / audio input devices etc..
So far I have gleaned that a dual core AMD setup is advised (what speed would be recommended as a minimum ?) and does anyone have any pointers on : -
Good on board wireless devices / on board video device / on board sound chip sets that work reasonably well under Linux,
+ any basic pointers on general recording combinations (thinking some kind of reasonable fire wire / USB external audio device / maybe a mixer ?) would be welcome !
Regarding the Video work I know good on-board video is required, but on my budget think I would have to stick with using the desktop at home for editing !
trying to do too much with too little knowledge.......

...Cheap HP laptop
I've got an HP G6030em (sempron 3200+).
Cost £350 from Comet about 6 months ago.
Works just fine; broadcom wireless was slightly fiddly to setup, but works just fine.
I've not tested hooking up an external monitor, or suspend and resume, so can't confirm if they work.
Tesco are currently selling an apparently uprated machine G6062 twin athlon for £375.
Can't guarantee that the 6062 is the same inside as the g6030.

Our local TV station (Nova TV, for my compatriots, who have not heard the news) is, on Feb 10th, starting to air an Italian TV series on Enzo Ferrari (I guess this is it: http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0346946/ ). I'm a bit suspicious to such shows, hence the question here.
Has anybody seen it? What are your opinions on it? Thanks in advance.

Powdery mildew is often confused with downy mildew. Both downy mildew and powdery mildew produce whitish collections of spores on the leaf surface, but similarities end there. In powdery mildew the white sporulation covers much of both the lower and upper sides of the leaf; downy mildew spores appear mostly on the undersides of leaves. Downy mildew spores are produced on branched stalks that look like little trees, whereas powdery mildew spores occur in chains on a single stalk. Areas affected with powdery mildew enlarge in a circular pattern, spreading a white, dusty growth over the whole leaf; there is no clear veinal delineation as in downy mildew infections. Powdery mildew thrives in warm weather; downy mildew is a cool-weather disease.

Sony Xperia Z3 review
UpdatedWith PS4 Remote Play on board, is this a flagship phone you should be considering?
UpdatedWith PS4 Remote Play on board, is this a flagship phone you should be considering?
UpdatedSony's new phone is small in size only - it packs such a mighty punch that Samsung and HTC should worry.
UpdatedThe Xperia Z2 is still a top smartphone, but it lacks the wow factor to make it really stand out.
MWC 2015It looks like a flagship but at a low price - but would you be willing to sacrifice resolution and PS4 playback?
UpdatedHas Sony managed to create a compact version of its flagship smartphone that can stand on its own?
The Sony Xperia M2 Aqua adds water resistance to the solid Xperia M2. It's a great idea but is it well executed?
IFA 2014We lost the E2 for some reason - but the E3 reckons it's got great tech at a low price to paper over the problem.
In the market specifically for a Sony smartphone with a big screen and a non-flagship price? No? Ah. That's a shame.

Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is a condition in which the muscle wall of heart's left pumping chamber (ventricle) becomes thickened (hypertrophy).
Other conditions, such as heart attack, valve disease and dilated cardiomyopathy, can cause the heart (or the heart cavity) to get bigger. This is not the same as LVH.
The heart is a muscle. And so, like other muscles, it gets bigger if it is worked hard over time. Several health conditions cause your heart to work harder than normal. The most common cause of LVH is high blood pressure (hypertension). Other causes include athletic hypertrophy (a condition related to exercise), valve disease, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HOCM), and congenital heart disease.
Some patients have no symptoms related to LVH. The condition usually develops over time, and most symptoms occur when the condition causes complications. The most common symptoms of LVH are:
Left ventricular hypertrophy may be first noticed on an electrocardiogram (EKG). If your doctor sees evidence of LVH on your EKG, you will have an echocardiogram to determine if you have the condition.
An echocardiogram is the most common way to determine if a patient has LVH. This test allows your doctor to measure the walls of the ventricle. A measurement greater than 1.5 cm is considered enlarged. Patients with athletic hypertrophy usually have a measurement less than 1.5 cm, and the wall returns to normal size after exercising. If you do not have any of the typical causes of LVH and have a family history of HOCM, your doctor may determine that you have HOCM.
If you have LVH, your treatment depends on the cause of the condition:
If you have LVH, it is important to get proper treatment. Although the condition can be well-managed, you are at risk of developing heart failure. Following your treatment plan and seeing your doctor as recommended can help reduce this risk.

Sales assistant joins Valley Record
The Snoqualmie Valley Record is pleased to have LeeAnn Hansen-Dewey join its staff as its sales assistant, filling the position vacated by Adrienne Turley.
Hansen-Dewey joined the newspaper in mid-November, providing support for advertising manager Leesa McKay by proofing ads, completing insertion orders, taking phone calls and offering general assistance.
"I want to add whatever I can to the quality of the newspaper," she said.
Hansen-Dewey noted that she has always had a love for journalism, starting with being involved with her high school's newspaper.
Plus, the position had its appeal because the part-time job works with her son's school schedule, she added.
Hansen-Dewey began her professional career as an executive secretary. She earned her bachelor's degree in social work from the University of Washington in 1986, working as a social worker until 2002. She also has a partial master's degree in teaching. She was employed as an instructional assistant and substituted in the Riverview School District and the Snoqualmie Valley School District until 2004.
Growing up all over Washington State, Hansen-Dewey moved to Fall City in 1997 with her husband Steve. Her son Christian, 10, attends Fall City Elementary School. Her family and extended family have been in the area for more than 25 years.
"LeeAnn is a very energetic addition to the staff. She has a very customer-friendly personality and quick wit, which fits in well," said Valley Record publisher Jim McKiernan.

It isn't well known that the Governments have been covering up the fact the aliens have bases on the moon. There are many facts, Pictures, videos, satellite images, and testimonies that create hard evidence of this fact. From well known respected scientists, Astronauts, and military personal we gain a pretty define perspective on this subject.
First we have this video below which is part of the disclosure project that starts off with a women talking to Military personnel about an image from space that has an Unidentified Flying object in it. She asks, "is that a UFO" and he answered, "I'm not allowed to tell you that". Now we know that he could have even said yes because a UFO doesn't stand for some alien ship it simply means an Unidentified Flying object. But he instead says it's privileged information. When she asks what hes going to do with this extraordinary information he replies, "it's procedure to air brush these images out before we release them to the public".
Next we have a man sergeant Karl Wolfe in the video, that was brought to Langley air force base where the NSA (National Security Agency) was bringing in information and pictures from the lunar orbiter. At that point one of the Officers said that they had found a base on the back side of the moon. Afterwords sergeant Karl Wolfe was shown images of the base from large towers to spherical domes over half a mile in diameter on a section of the dark side of the moon. He immediately stopped looking at the moon base pictures fearing for his safety. These are real Military personnel not just people off the street. They came forward knowing that they and their family's would be at risk just so they could reveal to the public the truth about UFOs and alien moon bases.
These three images come from a NASA satellite which circled the moon in order to supposedly map it. Oddly enough though most of these missions were financed from the defence department and not just through NASA. NASA has blurred out the images of the alien bases and structures but if you look closely you can, through the blurriness, see the shapes of the towers and buildings.
Here we have an image from a lunar module about 15 miles off the surface of the moon and even though you can really see the buildings themselves you can see the basic geometric shapes of them like the rectangle in the bottom left corner.
This is a Japanese satellite photo of a possible underground alien moon base. You can see two tunnels on either side and as we zoom in we can see something that looks like a weapon or possible communicating device.
This is three images zoomed in at different levels showing a glowing object possibly a sphere. Nothing else on the moon would glow like this unless it was metallic or glass. The moon is almost like a dessert with craters and mountains. There is no water or anything else reflective on the surface.
This is a superior image of one of the alien moon bases. It's undeniable. you can see perfect shapes, buildings, roads, and walls. This is one of the images that wasn't supposed to be seen by the public. Classified...
The side of the moon that you can never see from the Earth is called "the dark side of the moon" this is where the aliens have their bases so as we can't see them from Earth. This is a satellite image from above that shows these bases even in the dark.
This is another example of something reflective on the surface of the moon that just shouldn't be there. Leading us to believe its a dome used by extraterrestrials for research and housing.
This is one of my personal favorites so I had to add it. You can see a geometric shape leading to another point of light. This cannot be explained other than beings from another planet. From this distance it could be a number of things such as roads, buildings, covered erogation, roads. It's impossible to tell.
Even more evidence seems to pile up on this subject as we look to the past. When you look at certain cities, objects, or ruins from space on Earth things don't always look so crystal clear. Tall and short images that are actually closer or farther away get blurred just like when you take a picture of something on your camera.
There are many places on the moon that have very similar characteristics as places on Earth from far away. Such as cities and almost all ruins. If you watch this video on the right it explains in detail with many satellite images from both the moon Earth and Mars to back up the theory that there are old structures canals and buildings on the moon that have been slowly washed away with time.
What this means is that there was if not still are alien bases or civilizations inhabiting the Earths moon. With that in mind I can't help to question why we have not gone back to the moon and why the Governments of the world choose to keep this as a secret. If they are hostile I doubt there is anything we can do about it anyway so why not tell the world? Are we in contact with them? Are aliens the reason why we have seen this surge of technology over the last 50 years? I'm sure many of you out there are thinking many of the same questions.

Hydrant Hit in San Diego, 317,000 Gallons Spilled
San Diego police are searching for two men who fled the scene after crashing a minivan into a fire hydrant in Grant Hill on Monday.
The crash occurred at about 10:45 p.m. at 28th Street and G Street and sent water shooting into the air.
City crews and firefighters had the water turned off within 45 minutes, but in that time, 317,000 gallons of water was wasted.
The water shot into the power lines, but utilities in the area were not interrupted.
Police are still searching for the driver and passenger.

Ruggles, if you could provide the link to the other thread you quote from, that would be of interest.
According to Luca Turin, and other sources, Pierre Bourdon reworked his own 1985 creation, Green Irish Tweed into Cool Water in 1988.
So I ask, was Creed's Orange Spice also created by Mr. Bourdon at some undisclosed year, and then reworked by him into Kouros in 1981?
Creed claims that Orange Spice was created in 1950, but one of Basenotes esteemed Creed afficiandos, hirch_duckfinder just stated in another Creed thread that, "In fact, an historian and several other knowledgable fragrance enthusiasts have not seen any evidence whatsoever that they made fragrances before the 70's. Luca Turin made his opinion of their claimed history clear in his and Sachez's "Perfumes The Guide" and has not been sued."
Orange Spice and Kouros are just too close to be accidentally/coincidentally related, IMHO. I know it has been rumored that Mr. St. Laurent admired Orange Spice before Kouros was created, but does anyone have a bottle from the 1950s that would disprove my theory as Bourdon only began working professionally in the mid-70s.
Thanks for indulging me and any information leading to an answer to this question.
This has been nagging me since I smelled Orange Spice a few years ago.

I'll buy the story off the strength of Pierre Bourdon's level of taste and execution, in pairing with the vacuum of pre-1980 CREED info.
Well we all wonder what is truth and what is fiction about Creed's history. How much is marketing creative story telling and how much is actually fact. My first bottle of Orange Spice was purchased in the mid 1990's so I am little help.
Somebody should ask Mr. Bourdon himself! Does anyone here know him personally? I understand he has retired. He should put together a book that explains the evolution of the fragrances we all know and love from his past years of experience. His early history and close friendship Edmond Routnitska and his early work for Roure Bertrand would turn up very interesting foundational developments of the growing perfume industry in the 1970's.
But the real Creed history is a perplexing issue. Who knows what is real there.
This has the potential of being a fascinating thread, but unfortunately no one seems to really know what Creed's history really is, other than the Creed family itself, and I dont' have much faith in them revealing the truth. I think the fact that information about Creed pre-1980s seems practically nonexistent speaks volumes.
Although I have yet to smell Orange Spice, I am an ardent Kouros fan, and like Ruggles, I'd love to know the truth about the origins of these two scents.
It was a funny shock to try Orange Spice. I shot it onto a sample card and recoiled laughing. Right out of the bottle- it shares a lot with Kouros, that's for sure. I haven't given it a longer test wear, so don't know what kind of dry down it has.
Any lover of Kouros has to give it a shot, just for the big grin when you first spray it out. What do I know, but the 1950 date seems a stretch. It may just be me, but I have a tough time imagining my dad's generation using something that intense in the 1950s.
As for Creed's mysterious history, the optimist in me tends to think they may have made small batches throughout the years, but probably didn't burst out as a main stream perfumer with any real retail presence until the 70s. It's certainly not impossible, but some of their older scents (Orange Spice excepted) just seem like they're from an earlier time. RSL, REL, TABAROME, AMBRE CANELLE.
You'd think we'd have one really old cranky Basenoter who would remember them from the 50s or 60s. OR, someone who remembers their dad always wore Epicea, Vetiver or Cuir de Russie.
Last edited by StylinLA; 18th February 2010 at 07:04 PM.
According to a Basenoter (I forget her nick), Fleurs de Bulgarie has been listed in Empress Eugenie's official bio as a commissioned scent.
To think that no Creed scents existed before the 1970s is too unbelievable...maybe they didn't exist for commercial consumption. Also, the oldies have probably been reformulated.
BTW, does the fact that you made an effort to create this thread indicate that you like Orange Spice ?
Weren't there pictures of Creed bottles from the early 20th that were just listed like "Eau de Cologne" or something like that? They were then relabeled into current formulations. I think you're right in that most of Creed's scents were just in house bespoke blends that weren't for public sale.
Does anyone here know which year the Paris Creed store in the 8th opened? The decor makes it look like it's been there since the 70s. This certainly must be easy to ascertain. I'm going to give it a web search.
Orange Spice = Kouros? Not a chance. I smell very little similarity between the two. Orange Spice has an old-school, "barbershoppy" feel to it. Kouros smells much more modern chemical to me.
And the "no Creed before 1970" idea. . . umm. . . have to say, sounds like something out of the "fake moonwalk" conspiracy theory handbook.
I've been intrigued by this question since Turin established the GIT-Cool Water link. I would not be surprised. As to Creed history, we've been over this so many times
Other niche brands have shown that you can create a line of dozens of perfumes out of nowhere in very short time. So it is not impossible that Creed truly only started in the late 60s. On the other hand the style of some fragrances is clearly old-fashioned, though I do not buy most of the dates floating around - e.g. Vintage Tabarome is mid 20s earliest (post-tabac blond and habanita). It is possible that Creed produced (or had made for them) generics following the trends of the day, but this would have been a negligible side of their tailoring business. I simply do not believe that a tailor catering to the courts of Europe, travelling from court to court with his entourage to take measure of kings & queens had time to waste on concocting perfumes in the back room. David G. Williams in Perfumes of Yesterday draws a compelling picture of Victorian perfumery as widely based on the coyping or slight modification of standard prescriptions from handbooks by pharmacists etc. with professionalization driven by ionly a handful of pioneers like Guerlain and Rimmel. Whatever Creed may have been selling at the time has little to do with their current offerings, I believe. I'm also sure that Bourdon is not the only pro that master perfumer Olivier Creed has made use of. I would not be surprised if numerous other better-known noses were behind Creed perfumes.

the_good_life and Indie_Guy, thanks for you votes of confidence on the Boudron/Orange Spice connection. The plot always thickens with Creed inquiries, but never congeals. I tried to Google the opening date of the Paris Creed boutique without any luck. Any ideas? Thanks again for becoming part of this search for the beginning of Creed's perfumery origins.
I would be very surprised if this was not the case ! Michael Edwards might know more, or one of the giants like Givaudan, Symrise or Firmenich. But to my knowledge it's been in the contract of perfumers / perfume labs never to release the name of the noses behind orders executed.
That has changed a little after one or the other 'outsider' had started to introduce a few important perfumers to the public (guess who). But to this day Creed seem to claim doing everything in-house, and their magical talent seems to be heritable, a god-given like imperial crowns.

I don't know what narcus is going to say, but in my book the last awesome Creed was Bois du Portugal (1987). Royal Delight (1993) and Neroli Sauvage (1994) are excellent, if not quite awesome. I haven't been blown away since. Even great noses produce a lot of mediocrities.

I doubt that Creed started making fragrances as late as the 70s. Perhaps for broader public consumption, yes.
A lot of these wouldn't make sense to have been created in the 70s and beyond. They feel as if they come from an earlier period.
Until Creed gives a real release date for Orange Spice there is no way to know. Indeed Kouros could have been released first, unless there is someone here that can personally vouch for a bottle of Orange Spice before 1981.

I can't judge what I'm not meant to wear. It was never sold in Europe, as you surely know. I tried some from a mini-vial, but it wasn't enough for a full evaluation. Anyway, a perfume house pursuing a policy of keeping the really good stuff super-limited and ultra-expensive can kiss my behind, whether it's Creed, Guerlain or whoever else. As to my taste, it is simple, like Oscar Wilde's.

Allow me to insert another possibility, that Bourdon's relationship with Oliver was in part founded by Bourdon's admiration for Orange Spice.....if indeed Orange Spice is the 1950's technicolor marvel we find it to be. I would love to know more of Pierre Bourdon's initial contact and early dealings with Olivier Creed.

I am of the opinion Creed may be much better at advertising than most realize. Possible benefits over controversy to their claims as to when they actually introduced or began their fragrance lines could be well thought out by the Creed Ad department. It might just be in their best financial interests to not say a word clarifying any controversial statements they have made both in advertising and in media releases about their fragrances.
Controversy definitely sells and some savvy firms know this is a proven way to increase sales. Controversy produces both negative and positive interest and those states of mind in the public appear to work hand in hand to increase revenues.
Consider that Creed is almost always in the headlines in a number of Basenotes threads and enjoying the benefits of continual controversy. My bet is Creed has one or more of their employees reading and evaluating every post about Creed here and on other fragrance sites as to the monetary effectiveness of their advertising and published history.

The thing I find so funny is that if they did create a frag for this or that dignitary, then what happened? From the history, or lack thereof, it would seem that they were terrible frags that nobody wanted, and perhaps the dignitary was nice enough to just have a servant put it in the storage cellar, never to see the light of day again. However, some of them would have seen the light of day eventually. On the other hand, if the frags were so great, why wouldn't they want to make some money on that part of the business, like other companies did? It does not pass the smell test, pardon the pun !

Controversy may be an inexpensive way to keep your name out there if you don't have the money for an ad campaign, but it has a much shorter shelf life than positive reinforcement. Controversy is like the news, it gets old very quickly. Who wants to be the Lindsay Lohan of fragrances, anyhow?
Creed appear to have a mix of both positive ad reinforcement aimed at more knowledgeable fragrance users and to a lesser extent the general public while at the same time not openly discouraging the much more limited controversy about the veracity of their fragrance history. Only Creed know to what extent both approaches are working.

Ok, I have been holding up from mentioning this story for a while....but I suppose I will have to. Note I can not disclose any names, specific dates, places or events. Merely due to the fact I can not be accounted for their accuracy.
I personally know someone in the fragrance business, who has ownership of the "flagship" of many of the big houses in a certain country. I'm not sure how else to explain that. You know when you ask a house like say, YSL, to bring their products to a country, and you'll be responsible for the distribution?
Anyway, I've heard this story from one of his siblings; He was at a perfume event while working for one of the big designer houses, around the 80s or 70s. Oliver Creed was there, at his creed table which had, according to his sibling, only a single completed perfume, putting aside the conceptional/rough work. Now he liked that creed perfume and ended up offering to distribute it in said country. Of course, that single perfume was the only one that creed was readily able to produce, and distribute initially. My guess is that perfume is Creed Cologne?
Now if this story is true, and I shall check with him next time I see him, it does not prove creed did not create perfumes prior to 1970s. Orange Spice could have been made before Kouros. However, the question is, when and why did Pierre Bourdon smell orange spice, or get a bottle of it, then copy it. And most importantly, why would he even bother to copy something not very well known at the time?
I did not hear the story first hand so a lot of things are probably missing. I just thought it'd be interesting to share. And that said person perhaps could let me know a lot more about creed history. He is certainly a fan of the house, so no biased crap here.
1950 Creed Orange Spice (X)=1981 YSL Kouros (Pierre Bourdon)
1985 Creed Green Irish Tweed (Pierre Bourdon)=1988 Davidoff Cool Water
2003 Montblanc Individuel(Pierre Bourdon)=2005 Creed Original Santal (Olivier Creed[prob. Pierre Bourdon])
Orange Spice. Kouros. Which came first? I mean are we to believe that Olivier stuffed Pierre Bourdon into a DeLorean and sent him back in time where he saw Olivier's dad with beakers in hand, rockin' it out in 1950 with the groundbreaking "technicolor marvel" of Orange Spice (to the fanfare of crickets), before adding, "I guess you guys aren't ready for this, but your kids are gonna LOVE IT!"? LOL
I'm craving some Huey Lewis right now.
It does seem that people inside the business (the ones I have talked to about this) don't take Creed history seriously at all. For one, because they probably know things about Creed of the kind you just reported, but also because they are all quite cynical about the preponderance of bullshit in fragrance marketing per se.

Well, what difference would it make anyway if the true history of creed is revealed? They're still ripping people off at $280 a bottle. While the best ones are worth $150 at best.
Then you get the limited edition BS. People argue that those limited edition like Windsor and Vintage Tabarome make little profit for a company as large as creed. Maybe....But they hype they make in the fragrance community is enormous.
Creed is just good marketing all around. And let's face it, most of their creations are not that bad. They're just twice as expensive as they should be to keep up with their marketing.
Creeds used to cost a few dollars in the 70s/ early 80s as far as I know. So much for a house that only made perfumes for royalties. But maybe it's inflation, who am I to judge them?
Though the question right now is, is Pierre Bourdon a fan of Olivier creed or is it the other way around? I'm just waiting for creed to rip-off Iris Poudre.
"...are we to believe that Olivier stuffed Pierre Bourdon into a DeLorean and sent him back in time where he saw Olivier's dad with beakers in hand, rockin' it out in 1950..."
Where did the OS 1950 date originate? When was it first stated? If I could bet a nice sum of money on it never being proven (that it's from 1950 or thereabouts), I would.

Cale.it probably has the most accurate Creed launch dates. They even state the reformulation years (for e.g., REL was reformulated in 1805): http://www.cale.it/fragranza-scheda....ofumazione=162
I'm not sure what you are trying to communicate, zztop. Are you claiming that Cale.it has the relevant historical documents in their possession, or has examined these documents (if they exist)? If not, what are you claiming?

Enough with the historical documents mate!
I am claiming cale.it may know something that we don't (unless they have fabricated these dates by themselves). If Creed are fabricating launch dates, there's no need to provide a 'reformulation date'...the original fib would be fine.
Isn't Cale.it/Carle SRL Creed's Italian distributor? Like all distributors, they would get their product information from their manufacturers and pass it on verbatim to their website and clients.
As far as your reasoning that the 'reformulation date' is some kind of proof that the story is true, I disagree, it's just a classic diversionary tactic.
For me, zztop just showed us all how blinded by Creed claims a person can become. If there are no documents, how did Olivier know that this or that frag went back that far. This has gotten to the point of being silly !

I kind of have a suspicion that the Creed story is more or less true. If you look at Pierre Bourdons career, his first job directly out of school was starting in 1971 as an apprentice with Roure Bertrand working in Grasse. The first 5 years of his career was considered as "in training" as he had no experience in perfumery busines until this first job where he did work with Edmond Roudnitska among other established perfumers who were employed by Roure Bertrand. He worked for this firm for 11 years and during this time he is given credit for creating Kouros as a project for YSL but all through his firm Roure Bertrand. This company Roure Bertrand was one of the largest processers of natural florals and other naturally grown herbs etc for fragrance. In fact Roure Bertrand got their start in Grasse many years earlier and were a leading producer of floral formulas used to fragrance leather. During the 18th century, making fragrant leather was a huge industry. Fragrant gloves were a raging fad back then. There were 70 companies in Grasse who only created fragrant formulas to give a particular fragrance to leather for gloves, mostly, but in all types of apparel. Specifically fragrant leather was a huge fashion trend in the 1700's and into the 1800's and producing these leather fragrance formulas to cover the smell of the hides was big business. Roure Bertrand was a leader in this field. It was not until the early 1900's that they are given credit for developing the eflourage process to work with flowers. Their business gradually transferred from making fragrant leather to making fragrances.
Creeds oldest fragrance formulas are mostly leather formulas or fragrance formulas that might have been used for an exotic leather fragrance (the huge trend). Creed is well documented as a courturier or clothier to the upper end clients. They used these fragrant leather formulas as did many other shops. It is very possible that Creed may have been apart of the fragrant leathers supplier business and got the idea to requisition some of these same exotic scented leather formulas as perfume for clients. Creed claims Royal English Leather to be the oldest fragrance used today still in existence. I am sure when the first encountered this fragrance it was probably a leather fragrance as leather fragrancing was all the rage. The advent of perfume companies using the materials from Roure Bertrand for perfumes slowly increased in the 1800's and became their primary business in the mid 1900's. It seems very likely that the formula for Creed Royal English Leather may have come from Roure Bertrand and it was adapted from a leather fragrancing formula that they used. Pierre Bourdon would have known about these formulas due to his apprenticing in the business when he got one of his first jobs to work on YSL Kouros for Roure Bertrand, the supplier of the natural distillastions. Roure Bertrand was also well known for have using all natural ingredients for their distillations of fragrance oil.
Pierre Bourdon was moved to the Paris office of Roure Bertrand where he was known for his work in skin creams, shampoos and deodorants. During his first eleven years at Roure he created Kouros. He left to become co- founder of Takasugo Europe where he reportedly created Cool Water as well as Jil Sander and Sun Joop for men. It wouldn't surprise me at all if inspiration for both of these fragrances (Cool Water and Kouros) came from other work done at Roure were he apprenticed and got his first 11 years on the job. He worked often with Roudnitska and Kouros definitely has influences from Roudnitska'a use of animalic muscs and cumin used in Dior Eau Sauvage. Bourdon went on from Roure Bertrand to become the Creative Director for Quest in 1991. Roure Bertrand was bought by the Swiss fragrance giant Givaudan who predominantly created synthetics and want to add Roure's expertise in naturals. Bourdon left Quest after a brief stay, to form the French branch of Creative Resources where he was managing director. He is given credit for many fragrances there, among them, GOOD LIFE by Davidoff versions for men and women. Bourdon helped create many fragrances including Renee Lezard and Aigner Leather. He worked often with creative directors of other companies however there is no mention of working with Creed. My guess is that his company where he apprenticed, Roure Bertrand had worked with Creed in years past, possibly many generations earlier in the leather trade which was evidently the seedbed for the creation of the perfume industry itself in Grasse. Lots of those early Creeds sound like they could have been perfumed leather garments or gloves made for clients back then. It is only a slight fudging of details to not mention that the perfume was made to fragrance leather articles and not necessarily as stand alone perfumes. Most of Creeds first marketed fragrances were noted for their high naturals content and Roure Bertrand was the leading source for naturals in all of Grasse. But there definitely could have been Creed fragrance formulated at Roure and some may have come from old leather formulas too that Creed had used for clients back in the dates they claim.
I guess that all of Creeds claimed history has some kernal of truth to it. This is becuase the companies were all there making natural florals and other ingredients. Bourdon apprenticed there and probably absorbed these earlier formulas and was inspired by them when working on Kouros and later of Cool Water.
It is definitely a mystery why someone at Creed, or possibly Piere Bourdon (retired) doesn't give a little more detailed history of events to help clear all this up. What harm could come from full disclosure.
In my opionion Creed knows all too well that the guessing game leads to curiosity which leads to further discussion which leads to increased exposure and ultimately more sales of product. The Hunt for Red October made a hit movie. The subsequent Docking of Red October as a follow-up movie is a dead issue.
Thanks for the info Buzzlepuff!

"I just posted a link to some information you weren't aware of."
If you make a historical claim you need historical documentation. Do you think that site contains historical documentation? And can you answer a simple question, which is, if they have all these precise dates from the 1700s and 1800s, don't they have to be written down somewhere? Or do you believe that it was all handed down orally, from one generation to another?

I agree they have to be written down or recorded somewhere. For that you may have to contact cale.it yourself.
For example, Creed announced a few years ago that 2000 Fleurs was now reformulated. Basenotes carried the story. I smelled the fragrance and it smelled a bit different that year. So that alongwith the Basenotes announced is enough for me.
Not sure what "enough for me" means. If I liked the frag, I couldn't care less what the historical claim was. If we are talking about historical claims, it is something that either is consistent with modern historigraphical standards or it is not, however.

(Just smelled Orange Spice so found this thread)
I never thought I'd find myself in this position, but here goes... I think I'm actually going to defend Creed here. I don't have any real hard evidence, just intuition, but my belief is that Creed has probably been around as long as they've claimed, predominantly as a tailoring house or as a leather goods perfumer as explained above. If I understand the history, it wouldn't be that unusual for court tailors to offer other products such as fragrances, which would have just been another luxury good to upsell with.
Whether Creed's people actually made up their own formulas, or they were commissioned with input from clients, or just knocked off whatever was popular in the time, who knows, and as to the point about royal warrants, well that may have been a stretch, along with the 'used/created for X' when it's probably more like 'we gave a bottle to X and they use it sometimes'.
So actually, I do believe Creed when they say they've been making fragrances for as long as they have (in the sense of design, but not PRODUCTION), but it was probably just some tiny batches of a few bottles here and there for random clients with the formulas going into a notebook. Then the house sort of fizzled out and somewhere around the 70's Olivier tried to revive it by re-producing a fragrance line to add to their clothing line, the first one sitting on that table Ekove spoke about. Slowly they've added a few new ones as well as re-produced a lot of their historical ones, and here we have the house today.
That would explain why they have so many fragrances, why so many of them smell very dated, but yet why there aren't any actual old vintage bottles lying around (either extremely small production, or NO production for huge stretches of time), etc.
So the Creed we know today, the big commercial machine that pumps out bottles and advertises, really only 'started' around the 70's, but in some half-truth, they are correct in saying they produced fragrances for various high officials and have been around for a while, just more in a name rather than function.

Most of the time I am very proud of the Basenotes community. Time after time I have witnessed the thoughtfulness, empathy & genuine friendship that members of this community extend to others - oldtimers & newcomers alike. There are other times, however, when egos get the upper hand and civility goes out the window. My philosophy is that I won't say anything here that I would not say if you were standing in front of me. Welcome to Basenotes, each and every one of us. ~ TwoRoads

Mother's 45s Revisited The tiling/slide show approach below affirms remembrance/commemoration as a result of significant loss - in Chambers' case, the loss of his mother in 1983. Begin to click on the 'next' link, and continue to do so. His mother is gone in the physical sense - noted by the piece (MS45s-44: the last picture of him and his mother together about a year before her death) becoming smaller and eventually disappearing because of the repetitive process of tiling, but his remembrance/commemoration are indeed a part of the process - similar to a byproduct: The word art through song titles and the informal term, mom affirm the relationship between a son [Chambers] and his mother. Click on the six record/photo assemblage-images from the 45 images that comprise the original project, Mother's 45s to bring up the word art:

Thank you Lucie. I'm painting a dragon on bark paper, and it's fun to do something that is imaginary and pretend. I love the texture of the horns on these Rams. They are amazing creatures!
