The Fizik Arione Kurve Saddle is built for those with more felxibility bend to greater degree at a lower part of the spine. In this position, the sit bones manage most of the body's weight with little pressure on the genital region. To optimize comfort for the Snake, Fizik utilizes Wing Flex technology, which allows the shell to flex downward where the inner thigh contacts the saddle, allowing more efficient pedaling and a full range of movement. The Twin Flex Technology further enhances comfort by offering a Kevlar/carbon shell which is bonded toa stiff outer shell and provides a hammock-like feeling. The interchangeable tension system allows riders to customize saddle flex by simply changing out the nose piece. The Arione Kurve is also compatible with Fizik's tool-free Integrated Clip System for quick attachments and removal of Fizik packs and blink lights.

It's in some dude's backyard in Idaho, and he's auctioning it off on ebay.
The Q&A with the seller is priceless:
Here's the seller's description of how the "hand" appeared:
I was struggling with life, faith and my role in both. As I do every night I pray for guidance from the hand of God and to please keep me on the path the Lord has set me on. Sunday morning the second Sunday of Lent I received a magnificent sign from God that His hand is indeed guiding me and to not let my Faith falter.
In the early morning while we slept the Lord moved rock from a fairly solid section of the rock wall in my backyard to make known his guiding hand. Now I have a sign of the Hand of God to strengthen, fortify and sustain my faith. My faith is strong but my mind and body are weak; the Lords hand strengthens me.

(NewsUSA) - Acne's mortifying when you're a teen, but at least you can take comfort in knowing that, in a few years, you'll never again get a big zit before a big date. Or will you?
Studies show that acne affects more than 50 percent of women between the ages of 20-29 and more than 25 percent of women between the ages of 40-49.1
Adult acne, like teenage acne, is related to hormones. Teens get acne during puberty, and many adult women experience breakouts linked to their menstrual cycle.
But adult acne and teenage acne may require different treatments. Teenage acne typically affects the T-zone, while adult acne afflicts the jaw area.
Adult acne may be harder to treat. "Women have drier skin than teens. It is more sensitive and harder to treat (especially on the jaw), and some women may have difficulty tolerating the more drying over-the-counter topical acne treatments." explains Dr. Hilary Baldwin, associate professor and vice chairman of the Department of Dermatology at SUNY Downstate.
Women should talk with their dermatologists about prescription acne treatments, and be prepared for what may be an open-ended process. ACZONE (dapsone) Gel 5% has been FDA approved for the treatment of acne.
"The combination of moisturizing and anti-acne can be a tall order, so talking with a dermatologist can cut down on the treatment trial and error," adds Dr. Baldwin. "I also tell my adult acne patients to cleanse gently, moisturize when you need to and come and see me so we can find the right treatment."

(BPT) - Up to 5 million Americans suffer from an often symptomless � but potentially serious � liver infection called hepatitis C. Many are surprised to learn it affects four times as many people as the number of people with HIV. Three out of four people infected with hepatitis C in the United States are baby boomers � those born between 1945 and 1965. Because of this, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention now recommends all baby boomers be tested once for hepatitis C.
Kerry Monahan, a 57-year-old teacher, mother of three and grandmother of five, was shocked to learn she had hepatitis C and may have been living with it for years. �I had no idea I was infected,� she said. �Like many baby boomers, I had no symptoms and thought I was in great health.�
Untreated hepatitis C is the leading cause of liver disease, liver cancer and the need for liver transplant in the United States. Deaths from hepatitis C are also on the rise. In 2007, there were 15,000 deaths in the United States from hepatitis C, surpassing the number of deaths from HIV that year.
Despite the serious nature of hepatitis C, for many people, it can be cured, unlike other viruses such as hepatitis B and HIV. A person is considered cured of hepatitis C when the virus cannot be detected in the blood six months after they have ended treatment.
After she was diagnosed, Monahan and her liver specialist discussed her options. Because of the potential risks of letting her hepatitis C go untreated, she decided to begin treatment for her hepatitis C immediately.
�When I learned that there�s no way of knowing exactly how quickly my hepatitis C could progress, I wanted to begin treatment right away and not delay,� said Monahan. �I was determined to beat this infection.�
Monahan completed treatment and her follow-up tests revealed that she has achieved a cure. �I�m so glad I made the decision to be treated instead of waiting. Now, I can put hepatitis C behind me and focus on my family and friends,� said Monahan.
�As someone who frequently treats people with hepatitis C, I have seen the significant health complications caused by letting it go untreated,� said Kathryn McParlane, N.P., the clinician who helped Monahan through her treatment. �It�s extremely important that those who are diagnosed with hepatitis C discuss the risks and options with their health care professionals.�

If sitting outside on a crisp fall afternoon with a glass of wine in hand sounds like your idea of relaxing, then heading out to a local winery might be a good idea.
Approaching its two-year anniversary, Huffman Vineyards has expanded its interior and exterior at its location at the Mirey Creek gift shop, located at 221 Haw Branch Roadin Richlands.
What started out as a hobby for owner Lee Huffman grew into much more, creating the need for more space for wine tastings.
Huffman, along with his brother-in-law Glenn Turner, started brewing beer and decided to experiment with making wine from the grapes Huffman had been growing in his backyard. After finding success with the project, he enrolled in classes at JamesSpruntCommunity Collegein Kenansville, turning his hobby into a second job by stepping into the wine making industry.
"We've gotten incredibly lucky," Huffman said of his business taking off in a way that required the expansion. "It's been great and we continue to grow as an operation."
The new tasting bar, hand built by Huffman and Turner, is located in the back left corner of the gift shop, accommodating up to 15 people comfortably if standing, and up to 10 if tasters choose to sit. The new space also features a mural hand-painted by Huffman's mother, Phyllis, in addition to other wine-themed decorations.
Huffman Vineyards currently features 16 different wines on their menu categorized into a listing of dry, semi-sweet and sweet wines. For $5, tasters are able to select six out of the 16 wines on the listing to sample and receive a wine glass etched with the Huffman Vineyards logo that they can keep.
A new seating area outdoors is also part of the expansion to the winery, but Huffman said it's often a surprise to visitors.
"People sometimes don't notice the new seating area since it's located on the left side of the building, which blocks it from view of the road if you don't drive to the second parking lot," said Huffman.
The new patio space features several chairs and tables underneath an open-sky wooden awning, which Huffman hopes his vines will grow into to create a canopy.
"Sometimes we have 20 to 30 people out here, enough room so that everyone can have a seat" said Huffman. "People who have done the tasting often order a glass of their favorite wine and come out here to sit."
Next to the patio area is a wooden bench that wraps around a large tree, providing more seating and bit of shade.
Huffman also has plans to expand the left side of the building 30 feet, in order to let visitors take tours of the wine process.
"Currently where we process all of our wine is a small space and doesn't allow very much room to move around and give tours," said Huffman. "Once we expand the building I plan on setting up an area to explain the processing and give tours."
Visitors are allowed access to the vineyards, allowing them to taste a few varieties of the grapes Huffman has marked off on the left side of the building.
"I didn't know what to expect when I started this venture," Huffman said. "I had hoped to give my mother's gift shop, Mirey Creek, more exposure and have more customers come in. We've been pretty successful so far and continue to grow. We still don't know what to expect, but I'm along for the ride."
Patti Shaw, of Jacksonville, recently visited the winery with her friend who was visiting from Arizona.
"We didn't even know that the winery was there," said Shaw, who said that the winery was recommended by fellow members of The Red Hat Society.
"It was a really good experience. … They were all very knowledgeable," she said Shaw, who left with two bottles of the wine in tow. "It was everything you wanted in a small winery. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and we'll be back."
Lake Road Winery, in Newport, has also expanded at its location by adding outdoor seating.
This past summer, Mitchell Smith, owner and winemaker of Lake Road Winery, built an outdoor patio that can entertain up to 25 people comfortably outside.
"We can now do wine tastings both inside in our tasting room and outside on our new patio," said Smith. "We've also hosted live music and entertainment outside for our guests to enjoy with a glass of wine."
Lake Road's patio has featured a keyboard player and a blues singer on select nights, providing entertainment for guests, something that Smith hopes to continue to host. The indoor tasting room at Lake Roadalso features space for an entertainer complete with a tasting bar and gas fireplace for guests to enjoy during the colder months.
"We want to host something that both the younger and older generations can come have fun and enjoy in addition to their tasting experience," Smith said.
For $5, guests can take part in a tasting at Lake Road, which allows them to taste from list of 10 wines chosen by Smith.
"Our tastings go the full spectrum, and while we don't require our guests to try all 10 we suggest they try a tiny sip of all because they may find something new that they like," he said.
In addition to hosting tastings, Lake Roadhosts private events including wedding receptions and business gatherings and attends local festivals.
This past year, Lake Road Winery was selected to produce the official wine of the North Carolina Seafood Festival.
Smith and his wife, Susie, created Dockside, a blend of three wines they classify as a "fanciful wine" for the festival.
"The label featured fishing boat tied up to a dock and a dish of seafood, and the name (Dockside) came easily to me. We had a lot of fun doing it."
Since 2004, the Smiths' business has grown, and the couple now offers a variety of wines, tours and tastings at their location on Lake Road.
"We're still a small winery and we like that. It's a hands-on operation, and I get a chance to talk with most of my customers," he said. "We have travelers coming from everywhere, whether its 20 minutes or two states away. My wife and I are both in our golden years and are enjoying it."
With the harvest season coming to a close in August, Bannerman Vineyard, located in Burgaw, has altered its hours during the off-season, but is still offering weekly tastings Wednesday through Saturday.
The vineyard has been growing grapes since 1973, and under the ownership and operation of Colleen and Scot Bannerman, has been making wine for seven years. They make a sweet North Carolinamuscadine wine and have a small tasting room that offers six different varieties for guests to try.
"We're pretty tiny compared to some of the larger wineries out there," Colleen Bannerman said. "We appreciate all of the support we've received from those who buy, support, and enjoy local wines."

Comments about Enduro Seal/Wiper Kit For Marzocchi Fork:
These seals are great for an old leaky fork or a race rig. I've replaced several seals in forks with these seals and they never fail. Have them on my downhill race bike, my cross country bike and everything in between. Note: these do have a break in period so no worries if they leak for a small amount of time.
Best Uses
Comments about Enduro Seal/Wiper Kit For Marzocchi Fork:
I've installed enduro seals on about a dozen forks over the last few years. One comment that I hear a lot from first-time users is 'they leak oil'. Yes, they leak oil when installed initially. Try riding them for a few hours, as per the company's suggestions. It takes some use before the seals deform enough to seal properly against the stanchions, and once in there they will outlast and outperform most OEM seals. They seem to prevent dirt and grime entering the fork better than other seals I've used, and stanchion scuffs do not appear to affect their performance if properly smoothed down. Additionally, there is no exposed garter spring outside the seal body; I find that wear on this part is the main cause of seal failure so this is a big plus for me.
Enduro has great product support through their website, and detailed installation/maintenance instructions. Also, these seals are priced lower than many OEM/factory replacement seals, so I'm giving this product 4/5 stars - they aren't perfect, but they are the only seals I will use if given a choice.
Comments about Enduro Seal/Wiper Kit For Marzocchi Fork:
Terrible, Seals leaked from the moment they were installed, I have been working on mountain bike and motorcross forks for years and would not recommend these aftermarket seals, spend the extra money and buy factory replacement seals, wiper seals constantly pop out of place/do not fit properly and main seals leak a ridiculous amount of oil, had to remove them and purchase oem seals, a complete waste of money

The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy's (EERE's) International Team advances the progress of EERE's domestic programs and accelerates global deployment of U.S. clean energy products and services through international collaboration.
To realize the benefits of international collaboration, we coordinate with other offices in the U.S. Department of Energy and U.S. government agencies to identify, negotiate and actively manage targeted partnerships and projects that help advance our strategic goals. The collaborative research we support is either in the "pre-competitive" space or includes intellectual property issues that have been agreed upon in advance. All funds support U.S.-based project performers or international organizations of which the United States is a member.
Why it Matters
We support collaborative activities with international partners to help:
- Accelerate our domestic R&D results by leveraging international resources
- We leverage 3:1 U.S. funds with the Israeli government and private sector funds in supporting collaborative R&D on multiple energy efficiency and renewable energy topics through the United States – Israel BIRD Foundation.
- We coordinate competitively-awarded collaborative R&D consortia of American scientists with counterparts in China and India.
- We facilitate information exchange and expert-to-expert interactions between American scientists and their counterparts around the world.
- Improve energy security
- We fund collaborative R&D on developing drop-in biofuels with Brazil, which can lead to reduced oil demand in both countries.
- Our collaborative projects with countries such as Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, and Russia are focused on enhancing their readiness to absorb energy efficiency and/or renewable energy.
- Prime markets for U.S. exports
- We have supported a technical workshop in Brazil involving 3 U.S.-based mid-size wind turbine manufacturers to explore Brazilian policy incentives, interconnection issues, and market opportunities.
- We support experts at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory to collaborate with India's Solar Energy Center (SEC) on testing and characterization of U.S.-manufactured solar photovoltaic (PV) modules at SEC's outdoor test facility. This activity supports the American PV thin film industry by improving understanding how products perform in different environments over time and by developing testing procedures to improve product reliability.
- We support technical experts in adopting U.S. test procedures and energy efficiency labeling schemes for building products. Adopting these labels in foreign markets can reduce compliance costs to American manufacturers seeking to sell into these markets.
Our technical collaborations are wide ranging, from coordinated research and development to renewable resource assessment, standards and labeling, code development, product testing and certification, policy analysis, and more. But one thing all our activities have in common is delivering benefits to the U.S. taxpayer.

Los Angeles Kings (45-27-6) at Vancouver Canucks (34-32-11), 10 p.m.
(SportsNetwork.com) - The Vancouver Canucks will try to aid their slim playoff
chances by snapping a three-game slide when they welcome the Los Angeles Kings
for Saturday's clash at Rogers Arena.
Vancouver is 0-2-1 over its last three games and has dropped the first two
tests of a five-game homestand in regulation. The slide has damaged the club's
already fragile playoff hopes, and the Canucks enter Saturday seven points out
of the Western Conference's last postseason berth with only five games left on
their schedule.
The Kings, meanwhile, officially earned a fifth straight trip to the
postseason following Wednesday's home win over Phoenix.
Vancouver will try to avoid getting swept by the Kings in the season series on
Saturday. Los Angeles is 4-0 versus the Canucks this season and has won seven
of the last 10 meetings between the clubs. The Kings halted a two-game skid in
Vancouver with a 3-2 overtime win at Rogers Arena on Nov. 25.
After getting slammed by Anaheim 5-1 to begin this homestand on March 29, the
Canucks then dropped a 3-1 decision in Tuesday's tilt against the New York
Henrik Lundqvist stopped 34 shots to help New York subdue the Canucks on
Tuesday. Ryan Kesler had the only goal of the game for Vancouver, while Eddie
Lack gave up all three goals on 31 shots in the loss.
"I thought our team played hard and we had some chances that we just didn't
finish," said Vancouver head coach John Tortorella. "I thought we battled real
hard and it was a good game."
Tortorella went 0-2 against his former team this season, also losing to the
Rangers 5-2 in New York on Nov. 30. Rangers head coach Alain Vigneault and
Tortorella had switched cities in the offseason after both coaches were fired
from their previous jobs.
Vancouver fell to 18-13-6 as the home club this season. After tonight's game,
the Canucks will complete the homestand with tests against Anaheim and
The Kings have won seven of their last nine games, but the playoff-bound club
has dropped two of its past three tilts. One night after clinching its
postseason spot with a 4-0 win over the Coyotes, Los Angeles was handed a 2-1
regulation defeat in Thursday's game at San Jose.
Antti Niemi stopped 26 shots to help lead the Sharks, who assured themselves
of finishing no lower than third in the Pacific Division. Los Angeles is now
locked into the third spot in the division and will be the guest in its first-
round playoff matchup against either Anaheim or San Jose.
Jordan Nolan had the only goal of the game for the Kings. Martin Jones gave up
both goals on 21 shots in the loss.
Also, L.A. saw defenseman Drew Doughty leave the game in the first period with
a possible shoulder injury after checking Tyler Kennedy. Doughty, who was
playing in his 199th consecutive game, is questionable for Saturday's tilt.
The Kings had an eight-game road winning streak snapped on Thursday. The club
is 22-13-3 as the guest this season and is making the second stop on a four-
game road trip tonight.

JON CARDINELLI reports on the Stormers' unconvincing 39-26 win over an ill-disciplined yet plucky Hurricanes side on Saturday.
A last-minute effort by fullback Joe Pietersen so nearly earned the Stormers a bonus-point try, but it seemed fitting that the Cape side were denied a full-haul of log points. In fact, the Stormers turned in a performance that was at times so loose that they were fortunate to walk away with a win at all.
They dominated the early stages of the first half, their forwards manhandling the tourists at the point of contact and via the rolling maul. The loss of captain Schalk Burger to what appeared to be a serious knee injury did little to stall their forward momentum, and by the 34th minute they had established a formidable 20-9 lead.
It was all the Hurricanes could do to spoil at the breakdowns and at the maul, and by the end of the half they had lost props Tristan Moran and Ben May to yellow cards for professional fouls. Despite the two-man disadvantage, however, the Hurricanes stonewalled the limited Stormers attack and struck with a try of their own right on half-time. Beauden Barrett followed up a cool goal-kicking display with a game-breaking offload right on the buzzer, and centre Tim Bateman finished under the posts.
Suddenly the team that had been on the wrong side of a savage beating was only seven points adrift. The Hurricanes were also first to score in the second stanza when Barrett intercepted a loose pass by Jean de Villiers and raced clear. The young flyhalf showed terrific pace to avoid a desperate Gio Aplon en route to the tryline, and then managed to get up and slot a difficult conversion.
The next 20 minutes was a mixed bag for the hosts, who produced some impressive forward drives but also put themselves under unnecessary pressure with basic errors. If they had been playing a more experienced Hurricanes outfit, they may not have been so fortunate to escape with the spoils.
They were awarded a penalty try after a sustained period on attack in Hurricanes territory, and Pietersen continued to knock the penalties over to generate some breathing room. There were some positives in an largely erratic display, and Pietersen's goal-kicking under pressure was certainly one of them.
The maul also worked well, but the Stormers still seem to lack that killer instinct on attack. They should have scored a try towards the end of the first half and buried the Hurricanes, but flyhalf Gary van Aswegen eventually opted for the drop goal after it was clear the hosts weren't going anywhere. This after stand-in captain Jean de Villiers had decided to turn down goalable penalties and push for the try.
There were also a number of youngsters on show for the hosts, but considering their fine start, they should have put this inexperienced and ill-disciplined Hurricanes side away by far more.

lucky you!
I've phone-ordered from them in the past, and it was a top-notch experience. If I remember correctly, they were selling the CdG Synthetic series for about $26 a pop, so I bought all of them!
Thread: Rate my haul!!!
Today I drove 30 minutes to go to Saks for the first time. Complete waste of time, the selection is worse than Nordstroms and there are no testers to even try anything. So on my way back I come across this house that had been turned into a perfume shop. Apparently it's been there 25 years but this is the first time I noticed it. The fragrance smell was extremely heavy going in and it took my senses a good 15-20 minutes to settle down.
They have pretty much everything! Too many things to test in one trip, I fried my senses pretty quick. I did pick up a couple things while there:
Serge Lutens - Chergui
L Artisan Parfumeur - Fou d`Absinthe
Got samples of the following:
Serge Lutens - Serge Noire
Serge Lutens - Fille en Aiguilles (wanted to buy this but they were out)
Carthusia - Uomo
Miller Harris - Feuilles de Tabac
Amouage - Reflection Man
I saw Montale's for the first time today, decided to go right to the wrist with one... MISTAKE! It was so strong and mind numbing, if I had a pocket knife with me I probably would have cut my arm off and thrown it out the window on the drive home. I'll definitely be going back next week, family owned business and everyone there is very helpful. They actually know their frags unlike most SA's at department stores.
lucky you!

Sounds like a nice find - cool little house.
I think if I had to own just one Lutens and L'Artisan it would probably be Chergui & Fou d'Absinthe (with Daim Blond & Dzing coming a close second). And Amouage here we come, eh? hehehe
Wow, I really envy you for having such a place to go to. Only in my wildest dreams.....
Anyways, I thought you did pretty darn good. Chergui is nice ( although to me, kind of overhyped on Basenotes and other sites). The L'Artisan is a goodnutmeg and woods scent. Very nice haul !
But whats with all this mass exageration in your posts ? 15-20 minutes for your senses to calm down ? You wanted to cut off your arm after spraying it with a Montale ? Montales are not that strong. Which Montale was it ?
Seeking: Bottles/decants : of Alain Delon Iquitos, Feeling Man, Gucci pour Homme, Essence of John Galliano, Opium pour Homme, Oxford & Cambridge, Azzaro pour Homme (vintage), Concentré D'Orange Verte...etc.
Seeking decant/sample of Jil Sander Feeling Man, Comme des Garcons 2 Man, Giorgio VIP, ....etc. I have samples to swap.
More HERE
Please PM me !
Good haul!
I think you'll be very pleased with your bottles of Chergui and Fou d'Absinthe, two of the better ones from their respective houses.
Lutens is one of my favorite houses, and IMO you got three really good ones. I think I'm becoming addicted to Fille en Aiguilles, especially now that it has gotten cooler.
Feuilles de Tabac in also an excellent fragrance, one of my faves from Miller Harris. I like Reflection Man but it isn't one of my favorites from the Amouage line. But there are several members here who are crazy about it.
I may have tested Carthusia Uomo years ago, but can't remember enough to comment on it. I'm interested to hear what you have to say about it.
I predict that you'll probably end up getting full bottles of most of the ones you have samples for!
BTW, interesting looking shop! Wouldn't it be fun to have a business like that?
These terms EDT & EDP don't always give a true indication of what you're in store for with Amouage IMO. Reflection Man performs really well and seems to last forever for me . . .
The Montale was a black bottle and called something like Boise Vanilla (sp?). Total monstrosity!

Congrats on the Chergui and FdA. Both are excellent.
Serge Noire - Good stuff. But it doesn't compare to his older scents.
Fille en Aiguilles - Overrated, boring and not worth the price. Pass!
Carthusia Uomo - Decent scent. Somewhat unique. Good for Summer.
M/H - FdT - Decent scent. But there are much better tobacco fragrances out there IMO.
Reflection - Top Notch. Excellent fragrance. I love it. (I have the old style bottle - I'm not sure if it was reformulated when they changed bottles.)

Who knew there was a Saks on Wake Island?!?
Serious question, are all Saks like the one I went to today? No testers on the shelf, just sealed boxes. All predictable crap, CK, Burberry, etc. No Bond 9's, no Acqua Di Parma's, none of the stuff I saw on-line.
I see that you live in Portland, Orgeon. Yes, the Perfume house is an amazing place. Huge selection and a refreshingly knowledgable staff.
Hi PuddleMonkey -
Just wanted to let you know that if you got a Reflection sample that was EdT, it was from the old bottle. The new bottle Reflection is labeled EdP, and is very strong and long lasting, but from what I've heard is no different than the original besides strength.
Is the color of the juice in your sample a light violet/purple color? If so, I'd gladly be willing to trade you that sample for a couple mL sample of the new juice from my bottle. I am dying to try the old bottle stuff.
And yeah, Boise Vanille is fricken DISGUSTING. One of the few scents I've ever given 1 star to. Blech! Good luck getting that off of yourself!

Fou d'Absinthe is a favorite of mine - same with Feuilles de Tabac (not all that much tabac, but it will grow on you). For more tobacco I like Back in Black and Straight to Heaven from By Kilian. There's a touch in CH Men, too, that's nice.
Saks has kind of withdrawn to some degree in the frag world-- at least in my view. A couple of months back, my Saks SAs say they eliminated providing them little test spray cards or strips. I was in there today, and unless you want a scent sprayed on your arm, they have to dig around a spray it on Kleenex.
The Beverly Hills Saks goes pretty deep on scents. Bond No. 9 has a big presence. By Killian is there. It's the best source in LA for Guerlain. But outside of those two, it's mostly standard designer fare. Can't remember if they carry Tom Ford. Maybe.
Nieman and Barneys compliment Saks here. There're all within a couple of blocks of each other.
The Beverly Hills Saks has a fair number of testers, but they often have some scents with no testers open- especially when you're looking at something a bit out of mainstream like Mouchoir de Monsieur.
I'm pretty familiar with Portland, and I know it's probably not a very "frag friendly" city. I have seen write ups about that house you pictured in other forums. It's kind of a tough city for niche scents. Still, kind of a bummer the Portland Saks seems to be pretty mainstream in their fragrance department.
One trick I've noticed for you next trip. Some of the scents in Saks may be kept in the women's department. Don't ask me to explain the rationale. But in Bev Hills, the Guerlains and Bond No. 9 are all in the women's department along with the feminine offerings from those house. If anything is remotely unisex in my Saks, it's in the larger women's cosmeitics/fragrance department.
Saks in Portland is sort of the forgotten stepchild of the firm. It's a pale shadow of what you find on the East Coast.
Nordstrom is the high-end department store in Portland. But Portland is a lot more about small, niche stores regardless of what type of merchandise you're talking about.
A few other great tobacco's are SMN's Acqua di Cuba and Czech & Speake's Cuba.
Please forgive me if I'm rambling. Perhaps I shouldn't post after taking a xanax and drinking a few beers...
You have know idea how long it took me to post this short message!

Funny, I almost stopped in there today. I was in Hawthorn buying some lunch at Toney Bento. I have to be very careful going in there. I can lose hours just checking out their stuff. They have a great collection of Carons, Creeds, Chanels, and L'Artisans in additions to those you mentioned. I find one of the SA's a little off putting, she can be condescending and elitist (she told me I was too young and unrefined to wear Erolfa), but the other younger woman there is really great. If you go in during a weekday you can have the place almost to yourself. Lots of trouble to get into there.

Nice thread. Sounds like an awesome place to visit. I've ordered from them before (got a great deal on the three CdG Synthetics that I was missing) and they were great to deal with. If I ever make it out to Portland, I'm definitely going there.
Saks at Bridgeport isn't a proper Saks. It's Sak's Off Fifth Avenue which is sort of Saks discount outlet. But, the one downtown is not great either. Parking is no problem. Just find one of the many Smart Park garages and pay. The trick with downtown Portland is to Smart Park your car as soon as you can and then walk around. It's a very walkable downtown.
Great finds for sure!!! I wish I had a little slice of heaven close to me like this.....You are very fortunate for sure!!!
Well then I'm about to make you tripple jealous. If it's guns you crave, Keiths is a drive from Perfume house, but doable. And there's always Don's Machine Gun Den. Yes, Portland is a great city.
An entertaining read! I'm ever so curious about Reflection now.

I don't even know what a Totoro Plushie is, but I'm sure we have them somewhere.Come see our selection of Japanese Art, Anime Posters and Totoro Plushies
^ LMAO - I gotta move!
Oh, hell yes I've been to Powell's. That place is geek heaven! I almost died of laughter when I saw all of the famous scientist "action figures" (as if) in the checkout line.
Totoro is a mythical crypto-beast from what is arguably Miyazaki's greatest anime, Tonari no Totoro (very roughly translated to "My Neighbor Totoro" for US distribution). The movie is marketed in the US as a kiddie flick, but it's more of a cross between old Disney and an adult-oriented childhood remembrance film - almost Spielbergian in emotion, but deployed in a far more subtle way. Totoro never says anything, and steals your heart because of it. Brilliant story and execution - Miyazaki could have never done anything else and he would have been remembered as the king of anime for this one.
Hence a flood of plushies, such as these...
And I'll bet you have one hell of a good anime store, loaded with Totoro plush. The Japanese garden in Portland is exquisite, and ranks with the best gardens in Japan.
But.... Don's Machine Gun Den.....mmmmm. Hell, that's American as apple pie!

You know it's true: Senior dogs are the best. As much as we can't resist puppies, there is something about an old pooch that really makes our hearts sing. In honor of Adopt a Shelter Dog Month, we're counting down the top five reasons why old dogs rock.
1. What you see is what you get. Older dogs are open books—from the start, you'll know important things like their full-grown size, personality and grooming requirements.
2. Seniors are super-loving. Adopted dogs already in their golden years are devoted and grateful. They create an instant bond that cannot be topped!
3. They settle in quickly. Older dogs have been around the block and already learned what it takes to get along with others and become part of a pack. They'll be part of the family in no time!
4. Seniors enjoy easy livin'. Couch potato, know thyself. Consider adopting a laid-back canine retiree rather than a high-energy young dog who needs constant monitoring.
5. They're CUTE! Need we say more?
Did you adopt a senior dog? Tell us about your elder states-pooch in the comments below.
I adopted an 8-year-old dog 5 years ago. Still going, just a little slower and greyer. We bonded immediately! He has never given me a lick of problem, and I adore him.
My 2 adopted rescues (older dogs) are certainly not couch potatoes! They thrive on going to the park and following their sniffers (both hounds). Just because they are older does not mean they just want to lie around the house. I don't believe they had ever been to a park in their long lives, and now as seniors, they go 4-5 times a week. They have a new lease on life, and they seem to know it! Older dogs DO ROCK!!!
After being without a dog for nearly eight years we decided we were ready again. We had 3 criteria: 1. Shelter dog. 2. At least 5 years old. 3. 30-40 pounds. Two years ago, we found Emma at the Brighton Animal Shelter - a great organization. She met all the requirements and then some. We think she's a beagle-lion mix. She is a great traveler, flexible and adaptable, loves other dogs, and is wonderful with people. We often wonder who benefitted most from the adoption - Emma or us. We think we all came out equally well.
Just adopted a 10 year old hound from a shelter in West Va. What a joy. She is so sweet and lovable and a couch potato. Who knew she would bring such joy into my life. I'm a senior too so we get along just fine.
I adopted two senior dogs 2y yrs ago and everyone asks if they are puppies. Jenny is 16much and Junior is 13. I am a senior too, and the love is as strong as when we were all in our prime. Regular vet exams is one reason for their vitality.

We took in an older dog two years ago. Her name is Molly and she is a golden retrieve. She was 11 when we got her. Owners really just didn't want to be bothered anymore with her and they were going to take her to the shelter, where due to her age and hip issues we were sure she would be put down. Needless to say Molly is thriving and just loving being with us, and three other dogs!!! We are so blessed to have her in our lives. We all love you Molly.
My family took in a elder pitbull that had been neglected her whole life. And what a perfect little angel. You couldnt aske for a better fun loving quite little dog. She is loving, she is house trained,likes walks and gets tired much quicker then my 1 yr old pitbull. I actually am looking forward to my 1 yr old gettnig older. We had to put alot into getting Miss Zena health, but she has been worth every minute of it. She also never messes with the cats or her chihuahua brothers. It been awsome.
I have two senior DOgs, My Sammy is 11 and Alfie is 8 or 9. I was fostering Alfie and fell so in Love with him that I adopted him. These two Boys are my best friends. Even though they are seniors they dont act like it. They Love to go on walks when its not to hot out and get so excited when we pull up to the park. We spread out our blanket and stay at the park for a couple of hours, walking around meeting new people and pets. I cannot even imagine my live without my two boys. I will now only foster the Dogs that are the oldest and that have been at the shelter the longest, They are so darn greatful, and its like they know that you saved them and are so darn greatful. I Love my Old guys and I know they Love me.... Yes, senior Dogs do Rock
I adopted a mini doberman after she had her last liter of puppies. She is old and getting fat. I have a fenced in back yard so she has plenty of room to roam. She was ready to be put down when I got her and she has really bonded with my 3 other small dogs and my brother. She does not like to be out of sight of my brother. She is the most loving and caring dog I have ever seen and still has some spunk to her. My bro and I love her so very much.

After the terrorist incident of October 10, the sky has been turned into a psychedelic mirror, sadly reflecting a civilization only a shadow of its former self. As the world struggles to rebuild, two powerful forces wage a secret and terrifying war. Trying to restore the world to its former state is Orga, a tiny group of mutants with amazing psychic powers. Controlled by a wealthy and powerful widow known only as The Countess, they wait within her secret lair in the posh Hotel Providence for their enemy to stir, a dark cadre named Gilgamesh.
A black leather-clad army of beautiful and mysterious beings, Gilgamesh bow only to their "master," the brilliantly dangerous scientist who seeks to finish the terrorist attack he started years before. Caught between these warring factions are two runaways, a brother and sister who hold the key to destroying the world... or saving it.

Post subject: Sandy and her friends
So, unless you lived last week in a cave on Mars, you probably know that the mideast coast of the US was hit by Cat 1 hurricane Sandy on Monday. What you may not know if you weren't paying really close attention is that Sandy was augmented by a Nor'Easter that had been building near Nova Scotia and a Pacific front that had been crossing the US (and causing minor havoc on the Great Lakes, forcing multiple local bands to learn and cover "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" when they heard of high waves on the big three).
So, anyway, Sandy and her two friends hit the Jersey Shore (yeah, who didn't see that coming) and dragged their asses across New Jersey (as opposed to the island just off the English Channel), Pennsylvania and New York, causing sideband damage in Maryland Delaware Virginia, and New England. An entire town on Long Island burned to the ground because that's what happens when hundred-year-old wood ignites in a high wind. Most of the towns on the Jersey shore are partially buried under tons of sand (they used sand dunes for a sea wall...don't ask).
So the upshot, and the reasons for this post are this:
We have a number of members here who live on or near the major affected areas, and I was hoping they ould check inand let us know they're okay (especially Darc Sowers, who was in the middles of a move wheni Sandy hit). Because we're a dysfunctional family here at TWCL but we're still a family and we worry. Also,
As with any disaster, there are a number of douchebags who will try to cash in on the disaster, establishing "charitable organizations" in an effort to separate the generous from their money. I strongly advise, if you want to help, that you donate to
The Red Cross
or the
(especially the last one--you would be amazed at how many animals are abandoned or lost during disasters, and the ASPCA does an amazing job of reuniting them with their owners or finding themnew homes).
Anyway...I've said enough.

As of a few hours ago Nick who does Bunnies in Space (NickSD on here) was still without power, but otherwise okay. There are a few other people I know who've lost power, but to my knowledge they all have it back now. Nick's case is different though because he's reliant on a ventilator.
There's a longish post
about what's happened to make sure that he's got enough power to keep his equipment going, but the short version is thanks to help from friends and strangers he's currently getting fully charged up batteries delivered up to his place on the 12th floor.
Edit: Good news. His power's back.

I live in NJ and luckily I was spared both storms. My neighborhood didn't do as well. My next door neighbor lost power for a week. (Different power grid) And all family members scattered throught New Jersey (seven of them) lost power for up to a week.
I live over an hour away from my nearest relative. With the gas shortage, no one could drive up to my place so I've been stressed not being any help.
The people at the shore are the ones that got the most damage. Time will repair it all. New Jersey relies alot on the tax and tourist income at the shore so it will definitely be rebuilt.

Rooftop Corner Suites
Set at the corners of the Palace roof, like precious stones glittering in the sun, the Rooftop Corner Suites are the ideal location for blissful days on Lake Como.
The wood-panelled foyer leads, via a hallway, to the enchanting bedroom, where a delightful balcony looks straight out over the water. The fabulous views over stunning Lake Como can also be admired from the wonderful Cedarstone marble bathroom, with its spectacular central island, shower and panoramic whirlpool bath with large, breathtaking window.
The drawing room is furnished in a warm, welcoming style which combines the antique and the contemporary; it leads out onto the private terrace with heated Jacuzzi. The views are simply charming. The legend of Lake Como, from Bellagio to the Hotel's splendid grounds, has never been so close.
The Corner Park Suite has a slightly different layout to the two other Rooftop Corner Suites. The bathroom with its central island is flooded with light from a skylight, while the spacious terrace is the ideal spot for private, alfresco massages.
The incomparable 180° views range from the Hotel's lush green grounds and the rooftops of Tremezzo to the blue Lake and the tip of Balbianello.
Size: 50 sq m / 540 sq feet + 23 sq m / 250 sq feet private terrace
