About UNDP in Serbia
UNDP has been working in Serbia since 1952.
UNDP supports Serbia in its own efforts to achieve the highest level of human prosperity and dignity for all its citizens irrespective of their gender, ethnicity or creed. UNDP promotes sustainable human development, human security and equal possibilities for all, while providing every available support to Serbia in its progress toward joining the European Union.
UNDP objectives for Serbia are outlined in the Country Programme Document (CPD), 2011-2015, adopted in July 2010 and Country Programme Action Plan (CPAP), 2011-2015, which has been designed together and approved by the Government in December 2010.
What do we want to accomplish?
The ultimate goal of UNDP is to improve the lives of the people of Serbia, especially the poorest and most vulnerable, and to ensure a future that offers equality, dignity and opportunity for all. UNDP works in partnership with the Government of Serbia, development partners, UN agencies, civil society and local communities to help identify local solutions to meet global and national development challenges through a range of interventions that combine UNDP's expertise and comparative advantage in the areas of Democratic Governance, Poverty Reduction and Energy and Environment.
What are our results?
The UNDP delivered transformational change in a number of strategic areas:
In the area of Social Inclusion, one of UNDP flagship initiatives led to a shift in society with regard to persons with disabilities (PWD). The previous notion of medical and humanitarian assistance to PWD is giving way to a more social approach, ensuring that all persons have access to daily services on an equal basis.
UNDP's piloting of active labor market measures resulted in work placements, vocational training and business start ups for 2,700 beneficiaries of the Youth Employment Fund in 50 municipalities throughout the country.
UNDP promoted domestic and international investment in rural tourism, building local capacities for project implementation, enhancing environmental protection and increasing social inclusion of marginalized groups.
UNDP helped to establish Citizens' Advisory Services (CAS) in South Serbia to expand outreach services to possible migrants and returnees.
UNDP has assisted the Government to broadly adapt more gender sensitive policies which contributed to an increase in reported cases of violence against women.
The social welfare services became more accessible to poor and vulnerable in Serbia. UNDP supported partnership-building between governmental and nongovernmental sectors through the establishing of the Social Innovations Fund (SIF), a mechanism to fast-track the reform. The SIF introduced the mixed modality in provision of social welfare services, including for the first time the Civil Society Organizations as service providers.
In Democratic Governance, UNDP supported the Anti-corruption Agency in promoting its mandate and thus achieving a substantial improvement in the collection of asset declarations by civil servants (16,000 declarations as opposed to previously 9,000).
UNDP contributed to increased government accountability by brokering an MoU between the Prime Minister (and Government) and the Anticorruption Agency, outlining their collaboration in the fight against corruption and specific points of joint action. As a result the Agency began developing integrity plans, registering the assets of civil servants and combating conflicts of interest. Based on initial recommendations from UNDP experts, the Prosecution allocated additional resources, both human and financial, to its anticorruption units.
In 2011, UNDP assisted the Anticorruption Agency draft whistleblower protection guidelines, develop a new anticorruption strategy/action plan, and initiatives targeting the sub-national level. UNDP conducted a series of corruption benchmarking surveys at the household level, which provided data on the incidence of corruption. The media covered the survey reports, which further contributed to UNDP's leadership position in the field.
In March 2009, with UNDP's assistance, the Government adopted the Law on the Prohibition of Discrimination, which provides for mechanisms to protect against discrimination, including judicial protection through a specific litigation proceeding. Through UNDP's support to the establishment of the Commissioner for the Protection of Equality (CPE), an independent body envisaged in the Law, became operational in May 2010.
In the area of legislative accountability, UNDP support to Parliament resulted in the adoption of a Law on Parliament and new Rules of Procedure, which introduced mechanisms for collaboration with independent oversight bodies and reviewing their reports. As a result of these acts public hearings have been institutionalized.
Programming in the area of public procurement led to standardization of practices (1,200 public procurement officials were certified on international standards). UNDP support to the State Audit Institution yielded 143 audit reports filed in 2012, as compared to only 47 in 2011. 14 criminal charges for misuse of public funds were raised to date.
UNDP/SEESAC spearheaded efforts to mainstream gender in security sector reform and advance regional cooperation in achieving gender equality in police and military services in South-East Europe. UNDP supported the destruction of 17,000 weapons and initiated the disposal of stockpiles of 115 tones of napalm powder in 2012.
In Energy and Environment area, UNDP is assisting the Government of Serbia in increasing the share of renewable energy in the energy production mix, and in fulfilling its international obligations towards reducing carbon emissions and reducing energy consumption.
UNDP supported the Government of Serbia in implementing the Law on Energy, and in fulfilling commitments that are associated by joining the Energy Community Treaty.
UNDP supported the Government to comply with obligations under the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), including the preparation of the first and second National Communication.
UNDP has initiated development of a sustainable urban transport plan for the city of Belgrade, which provided the basis for a positive decision by IFIs to allocate additional loans towards urban reconstruction and sustainable transport.
To ensure an increase in the "protected natural resources areas" and their sustainability, UNDP assisted the Government of Serbia in developing the strategic framework for biodiversity conservation, which resulted in the development and adoption of National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan.
UNDP supported the establishment of the Association of National Parks and Protected Areas of Serbia and assisted in developing their fund-raising strategy.

We loathe giving Aflac any more media attention than they have already received, but we can't keep our mouths shut about the recent PR stunt they pulled. If you haven't yet heard, Aflac recently let a duck loose into a busy New York City subway station and began tweeting about it, ruffling our feathers in the process! The duck, representing their famed mascot, drew quite a bit of attention—but at what cost?
NYC subway stations are noisy, crowded, and let's face it, pretty dirty places. The hazards that could have harmed our small feathered friend are too numerous to count. We're appalled that Aflac would pull such a stunt.
Do you think this PR stunt went too far? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
I hope I remembered my subway pass. #IMadeAComeback#NYChttp://t.co/nyMicqRQH x— Aflac Duck (@aflacduck) September 23, 2013

the stress and utmost fear must have been awful for this baby! how about throwing them into a cage with tigers and lions and see how they feel
I completely agree with you guys - this is way too far. Did they even care if the duck was hurt? Anyone who has been to the City knows that people are very tunnel-visioned when it comes to getting to where they need to be.... it could've easily been hurt because of that. Not to mention how traumatic that must have been. Tasteless, I'd say.
Shame on them. Are they completely crazy !!!
Of course it was wrong and animal abuse, why weren't they arrested?
Yes it was wrong. Companies should not be allowed to use live animals in any ads, publicity stunts or commercials! Period. Why does this continue to be allowed?? I think if companies are reading this, they should know that MANY consumers will NOT have anything to do with these companies!! MYSELF included!!! Thumbs down to AFLAC!!
I never liked those ads anyway now i have a reason to hate them. they are annoying and ducks should poop all over their building in retaliation

TomTom invites you to "unwrap the world" and win
Six driving adventures and thousands more great prizes to be won with new online game
London, 30 November 2012– TomTom today launches an online competition TomTom Gives You More, which offers you the chance to "unwrap the world" and win one of six unforgettable driving adventures at www.tomtom.com/more
The game is easy to play and puts players' virtual unwrapping skills to the test. To be eligible to win, entrants need to select a wrapped-up continent and unwrap it. In addition to the six main prizes, there are thousands of other prizes to be won, including TomTom navigation devices, Nike+ sports watches and gift vouchers. The global competition runs until 15th January 2013.
The six main prizewinners will be sent on a two-week driving adventure for four people along one of these spectacular routes: Ruta 40 in Argentina; the Garden Route in South Africa; the Grand Alpine Tour in Europe; the Malaysian Roundabout; the Australian Coastal Route; or the Pacific Coast Highway in California.

Contestants should visit http://www.tomtom.com/more between now and 15 January 2013 to play the game and be in with a chance of winning. Players pick a route to follow and help Christopher unwrap presents along the way. Once contestants have successfully unwrapped an entire route, they'll be asked to create and upload a file that explains why they think they should win the holiday. It could be a video, a song, a short story or even a short poem. The most original and fun entry will win the route they just unwrapped.

I think I found where all the priests and druids went. I joined a group for Tempest Keep - Arcatraz. We had one priest and two druids. Guess who ended up main-healing?
It was still a good and successful run. And I got to play with a Shadow priest for the first time in TBC. Shadow priests really complement Holy Paladins, to an almost rediculous degree. All that extra mana fueled my larger heals, and the group healing through Vampiric Embrace took care of all the splash damage that makes paladin healing hard.
In many ways, Shadow priests are the one hybrid that Blizzard really got right. Unlike a paladin, a Shadow priest does not choose between healing and doing damage. They heal by doing damage. Vampiric Embrace is the critical talent that makes the Shadow priest work. And the amount healed is linked to the amount of damage done, which gives large incentive to maximize damage capabilities.
What a lot of paladins really want is our own Vampiric Embrace. (Angelic Embrace, maybe. Though Blizzard would probably call it something silly like Embrace of the Naaru.) Imagine a Retribution talent where you healed your party for a certain percentage of the damage that you do. That is the precise solution that would make many Retribution paladins happy, because it gives the extra, obvious purpose to their meleeing. We are a melee hybrid, and so we should support by meleeing.
Judgement of Light does not work as well as Vampiric Embrace because JoL is independent of the paladin. There is no support incentive for the Retribution paladin to maximize his damage in the same manner as the Shadow priest.
This solution to the paladin role is fairly obvious, and I think that is the reason that Blizzard has been resisting this. It's really too close to Vampiric Embrace, and I think that Blizzard does not want to just copy themselves. But I think all their other attempts have not truely restored the paladin class to the melee zone for the large majority of players.
But so long as casting a heal reduces your dps (which it does, as time spent casting takes away from time spent meleeing), I think paladins will always have this tension between being allowed on the front lines or being forced to healbot.

blizzard has been trying to alleviate this. For example the enhancement shaman tier 5, the proc is an instal flash heal. For paladins, the imp. sanctity aura indirectly heals melee while you are doing damage. Same goes for feral druids and imp. aspect of the pack where it heals you when you do a crit.

Shadow Priests have come into their own in the TBC, its been quite funny the way that our guild leaders have changed their tune on this class and are now actively encouraging a couple of our formerly shadowy figures to return to the dark side. In some of the longer encounters in Karazhan the mana and health regen makes the difference.

I'm really encouraged, because my up-and-coming shadow priest is a blast to play.
My wife and I run beastmaster hunter and shadow priest (both 51). I typically just drop SW:P, Vampiric Touch, and Vampiric Embrace and we never need healing (I just wand so the pet keeps aggro). The beauty of it is that we can run in almost constant combat, with very little down time (usually only a rare stop for me to replenish mana).
If we get adds or are taking on tough mobs, I start hitting with Mind Flay and Mind Blast. Vampiric heals, vampiric mana, and shadow damage are rather amazing even with my badly out-of-date gear (we rarely run instances). I can't wait to get the Outland quest gear updates and into the Outland cloth drops my main has sent down.
It's kind of a joke with us now that I used to say, "Now this will be tough...", only to have us mow down the mobs with no problem.

I like the healing to damage talent, but how imba would it be in pvp ;/. And another thing, you said blizzard doesnt want to copy themselves look at the new dungeon sets its a reskin of prior stuff.

It's nice that there are some combinations of hybrid that are working well together. Perhaps that's more what Bliz needs to focus on - pairings up...
But I guess as with anything, it's hard to balance. Just neat to know that Pally/Shadow Priest rocks together so well, I've heard that a few times now.

Bradley V-8
Gift in memory of Rudolph Degen by Mrs. Emma Degen and Robert Degen
Because little information can be found regarding the Bradley engine, its designer, builder or place of manufacture, it is believed that very few were built. Typical of the early V-8 air-cooled designs, it may have been an off-shoot of the Bradley motorcycle engine. This example, purchased second-hand in 1912 by Rudolph Degen of New Durham, New Jersey, for his home-built airplane, is probably the only one remaining. The engine was built in 1911 and produced 50 hp with a displacement of 267 cubic inches.
This engine is located in the Civilian Hangar as part of the Aviation Pioneers exhibit.

Never thought I would say this, but Xavier Henry is more useful than Austin Rivers right now.
PelicansReport.com Sim League
New Orleans Hornets General Manager
We traded warrick for nobody and saved 500k in the process how is that horrible?
The bench is decent every team has off night and besides ryno and Lopez tonight was an off night.
You forgot to mention all the 20 other brilliant moves demps has made for some reason you only remember the past couple months.
My Anthony Davis website: http://thebrow.uphero.com/
(apparition voice) rebuilding season.... Rebuilding season!!!!!
Okay. By using what you're seeing now, a team that is not at full strength struggle against our coach AND our GM it's more than a little unfair.
If you're going to sling around hyperbole, Anderson wasn't a nice move, it was a BRILLIANT one.
Rivers is what it is.
Giving EG a max wasn't a horrible move it was the only move. So, what, we should've let him walk for nothing but maybe more mediocre players and maybe another pick that we couldn't use this season anyway?
Trading Warrick as a horrible move? Dude can dunk. That's about it.
I have no problems with expecting us to be an 8th seed next year. My problem is you're laying what you're seeing right now as if its the first strike. As if our bench should be San Antonio Spurs level overnight.
You're being real quick to lay the hammer down. When nobody told you this process would be quick and easy.
Now I do voice overs. Finally!
Click here for my first voice demo!
-Brackins and Songaila for Green and J.Smith
-Thornton + cash for Carl Landry
-CP3 for Gordon, Kaman, Aminu and 1st (turned out to be #10 overall, which we then selected Rivers with)
-2nd for X.Henry (3 team deal)
-I think J.Smith extension was in here somewhere
-Qpon for Vasquez
-Collison and Posey for Ariza
-future 1st for Bayless
-Peja and Bayless for Jack, Andersen and Banks
-J.Wright for Belinelli
-Okafor and Ariza for R.Lewis + 2nd
-Buyout R.Lewis (saved team i think around 7mil)
-Ayon for Anderson
-Gordon extension
-Jack for rights to Edin Bavcic (cap space)
-Conditional 2nd for (2) 2nds and B.Miller (800k buyout)
-Signed Davis and Rivers to their rookie contracts
-Dyson, B.Miller and (2) 2nd rounders for Lopez and Warrick
And I didn't say every move he made was brilliant. But he has done a lot of good for this team. And this list may need some updating.

I know you're ticked off from that performance man but just calm down. We are not contending for the finals this year and probably not next year... Improvement is all i am watching for this season. (like hopefully Rivers starts making layups and rotating on defense by the end of the season)
Checking in after attenfing the game...ryno is still the steady force i have come to expect. X played his best game of the year and hopefully he can build from it. After watching rivers closely the last couple of games...two things are clear;he lacks confidence in his jumper at the moment and he has to get stronger. He usually beats his defender off the dribble, but he cant finish in traffic. I think and hope that he will improve on this over time.
Offensively, Austin isn't a factor either. I don't care if he can get to the rim, he won't finish it. And 75% of the time he's 26 feet from the basket looking at the opposite basket off the catch, he's out of the play already. Atleast you know Xavier is going to work, he's an above average offensive and defensive rebounder, his assist rate isn't too bad. Worst part, I just proved nothing with that argument, but that's more than Rivers brings to the court. But neither are deserving of a spot on a NBA roster right now.

X is no where near mediocre defensively he is horrible at everything he does and we are talking about a player who has years of experience vs 16 games?
Vasquez for Pondexter
Trading Ariza and Okafor AND saving money at the same time.
Trading Julian Wright for Marco.
Getting Jarrett Jack instead of sticking with Darren Collison.
Getting Anderson.
Getting Jason Smith for Songaila and Craig Brackens.
Signing Gustavo Ayon.
Getting an actual scouting staff.
The general overhaul of the infrastructure of the front office....
What else? Hm..
Oh. Raising the Bar already got the rest.
Last edited by Eman5805; 12-05-2012 at 09:47 PM.
And whilst Jason Smith is in this shooting funk and suffering alot of minor injuries I'd like to see Lance play. Seems like he can be a stopper and he makes his free throws for the most part.
And what else? Henry is better at literally EVERYTHING else. FG%, eFG%, ORB%, DRB%, TRB%, TOV%, USG%, Drtg, OWS, DWS, WS, WS/48.
Sad part is, like I said, Henry isn't good at anything either. That just goes to show how bad Austin is.

A milestone 100 years in the making, these locations are celebrating the historical achievement with commemorative events and exhibitions in 2013.
CALIFORNIA, Death Valley
The lowest and driest area in North America, Death Valley is also the record-holder for the highest recorded temperature in the world. On July 10, 1913, Furnace Creek hit 134 degrees.
Today, with towering peaks dusted with snow in the winter and vast colorful fields of wildflowers every spring, Death Valley definitely is a land of extremes.
MORE INFORMATION: nps.gov/deva
MISSOURI, St. Louis
One of the city's most popular attractions, the Crown Candy Kitchen opened its doors in 1913. Founders brought their confectionary skills from Greece, creating delectable chocolates and desserts.
The classic soda fountain features thick-stacked sandwiches, chili and other hearty traditional meals. A 30-minute challenge, in the form of five 24-ounce malts or milkshakes, awaits brave souls; since opening day, only 33 people have succeeded.
MORE INFORMATION: 314-621-9650 or crowncandykitchen.net
NEW YORK, New York City
After an extensive renovation, Grand Central Terminal opened for business on Feb. 1, 1913. The Beaux-Arts-style building is the largest train station in the world, with 44 platforms serving 67 tracks. Nearly 22 million visitors utilize the rail station, restaurants, stores, gallery and transit museum annually.
Many centennial events have been planned, including a birthday party, an exhibition and an art show, to name a few. A Grand Centennial Parade of Trains will be held May11-12.
Be sure to check out the four-faced opal clock on top of the information booth, perhaps the most recognizable icon of Grand Central.
MORE INFORMATION: 212-484-1222 or grandcentralterminal.com

Customer Raves & Reviews
They look great and will be a useful memory for those that share in our day.
I was looking for something with a tulip(my husband is from Holland) as well as something useful. Because we are already married and were doing a convalidation of our vows, I wanted something as a memory for those sharing this day. This was perfect. I was able to personalize with my own message so it could say what I wanted. It looks exactly like the picture. The print on the bottom is a bit small...I should have made it larger as it's difficult to read but it is fine for us. It's very thin...I would have expected a thicker board, but it sticks to the refrigerator fine and did not seem to fall off. The pen has a magnet attachment that is separate which will make it easy to take off to use. They fit perfectly in the bag and the seals look great on the back. I am pleased and found the price to be reasonable.

The word year when pronounced starts with a phonetic sound of e which is a vowel sound making it eligible for being preceded by an. Yet, we tend to write a year. Why?
I reject your premise that the word year starts with a phonetic sound of e. Here's how it is pronounced according to the various dictionaries:
Words that start with the /j/ sound are preceded by an a, not by an an. Compare: a user, a utility, a yak.
It doesn't start with a phonetic sound of e. It starts with [j] (usually spelled "y" in English), and that sound is not a vowel here.
A year does not start with an e sound. An ear starts with an e sound.
In most cases.
A good rule is
For the word 'year' to be preceded by 'an' it must sound like it's beginning with a vowel. The reason why it is a tad tricky is because of the difference in the way people pronounce it.
Some people pronounce the word 'year' as 'ear' with 'y' silent, thereby wanting 'an' to precede and feeling discomfort with 'a'. e.g. 'It's been an _ear since we talked'.
Whereas others pronounce it with a 'ye' sound in the beginning. In this case one finds that using 'a' suddenly sounds more comfortable. e.g. 'It's been a 'ye'ar since we talked'.

Without formal computer education, he was amazingly clever at figuring out how to do just about everything, from making the printers work, to installing all of the blogs, to designing much of the former site's look. He worked for many people doing computer repair and web design, he was loved by many and never had a bad word to say about anyone.

Justin Thornton and Thea Bregazzi have firmly established Preen as one of London's most distinctive and successful labels. They met when they were both eighteen in the Isle of Man where they grew up and began with a small boutique in London's Portobello in 1996. A sophisticated client base was soon established which today also include Scarlett Johansson, Sienna Miller, Kate Moss and Kirsten Dunst.
Celebrations for their 10th anniversary last year included a retrospective exhibition of archive pieces, sketches, original photographs and back-stage shots. They now have over seventy stockists worldwide plus a successful menswear and accessory collection which includes bags, belts, purses, scarves. They also design for Top Shop.
They are renowned for their distinctive and clever cutting. Their experimentation often starts with the simplest of shapes and then springs off into detail, asymmetry, drape or fold, which never ignores a sexy body-shape or a bold silhouette. Superb colourists they also use original prints with a spare and modern application.

As an aside- what did we do before using a nursing cover? Seriously, I think blankets would just fall right off me.
Pin It
SO cute! the banner is my favorite part!
I love all the details. Looks like one little guy felt pretty special. The rocks and trucks in the vase was pure GENIUS!
Will you be my mommy?
Cake, beer & wine in your fridge - I heart you!

GREAT party! I love the banner and apple in a cup the peanut butter. I may try that for my daughters birthday in July. Oh and your kitchen....LOVE IT!
Have a wonderful weekend!
I was looking forward to see your son's birthday party!
As always, everything looks so neat.
Congratulations for your boy and also for you, who did a great job!
What a fun party! (And I spotted some "mommy juice" above the cake in the fridge :)
Now I'm curious to see an "aftermath" picture ...
Pretty, fun, and delicious! Super mom Jessica! :) Have a fab weekend! And, yea, what did we do before nursing covers??
Oh my, so cute!! I love all the details! You really did an awesome job and I'm sure he had a blast!

So much to comment on so little time to do it. First, now that picture of you nursing...that's the kind of picture Time should have on their cover! Then, I think your refrigerator is just as beautiful and well decorated as your house. Of course, your party looked fantastic, no detail apparently was spared. What great memories!
What a cute party. I think even my daughter would have liked the party. She likes Bob the Builder.
From one party girl to another, GREAT job Jessica! You totally get the Parties for Pennies stamp of approval! :-) Love it! Heidi Rew from Parties for Pennies
What a great idea for a birthday party...I love all of the little details that go with the theme! Also, champagne for the adults..you're mind kind of hostess!
Awesome! Love the lemonade sippers (and the champagne!). What a great idea to give books as favors. I'm so copying these ideas!
My son turns 26 this July. Wonder how he'd feel about a construction birthday? (Probably the same way he'd feel if I was nursing a baby. And yes, the blankets did fall off. Generally, we had to stay in the house. With no guests. Ever.) Very cute party!!
Super cute party! I recently did a dump truck/dirt party for my 3 boys--haven't blogged about it yet. Love the orange and the cake!
What a beautiful party Jessica! You have every detail covered and you did an amazing job! Angie xo

As much as I love Gucci II, it's probably the weakest frag in my wardrobe for both projection and longevity.
As the title suggests, drop your fragrances that just have terrible longevity and horrendous projection.
The following made my list:
Versace Man Eau Fraiche sitting at 2 hours, with 1.5 hours stuck on skin
Lacoste Essential Sport
D&G The One
D&G The One Gentleman
As much as I love Gucci II, it's probably the weakest frag in my wardrobe for both projection and longevity.
Eau Mixte
Creed Royal Island Water and Virgin Island Water. I really like the pleasant softness of these scents but they just die on my skin and on my clothes they last not more than one hour.
Amouage Dia I can not smell it after ten minutes of applying it. And Creeds Neroli Sauvage I bought two samples from two different places and after twenty minutes on my skin both times it was gone with hardly any projection.
Erolfa by Creed
Roger & Gallet Jean Paul Farina Edition Cologne
In a world where people smell bad, it is the personal responsibility of every Basenoter to improve the world one SotD at a time...
Beckham's Instinct
Wow, HDS, I can smell Erolfa all day long. Why we're all different.
For me:
Borsari Aqcua Classica and Ed Hardy Love and Luck.
Millesime Imperial too if it's really hot. No problems on mild days though.
Love all of the below but longevity/sillage is an issue. Only wear them when I'm only going out for a short while
Polo Blue
Givenchy Pour Homme Red (Although I'm discovering in recent times it's not as bad as I first thought)
Carlos Santana (Great while it lasts though)
Hanae Mori EDT
not sure about the projection, but i find cdg 2 longevity a little bit lacking
Cereus No.4 and Clinique Happy.
I love Trumper Extract of West Indian Limes, but longevity is nearly nonexistent. You put it on and get a great invigorating natural lime, then it is gone in minutes (or maybe I should say seconds). Too bad, really.
Current Top Favorites:
1) Portrait of a Lady original formula (EdP Frédéric Malle)
2) Giorgio for Men vintage/V.I.P. for Men (Giorgio Beverly Hills)
3) Dia Man vintage edt (Amouage)
4) Anat Fritz Original Formula and Classical (Anat Fritz) - tie
4) Lalfeorosa (O'driù) - tie
6) Les Nombres d'Or Vetyver (Mona di Orio)
7) Captain vintage (Molyneux)
8) Tzora (Anat Fritz)
9) Javanese Patchouli (Zegna) - tie
9) Monsieur de Givenchy vintage (Givenchy) - tie
9) Coeur de Vetiver Sacré (L'Artisan) - tie
9) X for Men (Clive Christian) - tie
9) Patou pour Homme Privé (Jean Patou) - tie
9) Oud Shamash (The Different Company) - tie
This stuff lasts all of 5 minutes:
About 7 minutes:
About 15 minutes:
About 30 minutes:
Oh yes: sneezing for 5 minutes then nothing:
I forgot the worst! I'm not even sure if there is any perfume at all in Boss Night
I forgot another. Gone almost instantly on evaporation:
Creed Bois de Cedrat. I love it, but it disappears almost immediately into a skin scent even if I bathe in it.
Current Top Five:
1. Creed Green Irish Tweed
2. Tom Ford Neroli Portofino
3. Hermes Concentre d'Orange Verte
4. Bond No. 9 New Haarlem
5. Creed Original Vetiver
Why "terrible" longevity and "horrendous" projection? Not all of us want to smell like the Empress of all the Russias all the time.
On some hot days I only want to wear a simple eau de cologne, and if I have to work closely with people, a close skin scent that I can feel comfortable in is all I need.
Hermes d' Orange Verte - really like it, but so short lived, it's a deal killer for me.
Gone after 20 minutes
sean john - iamking
hermes - concentree de orange de verte
On El- good scent, yet even after half an hour, any trace of longevity is gone in spite of generous and- often repeated- applications
Amouage dia on me as well as dg the one and gentleman.
Burberry Weekend for Men doesn't last at all on me.
Chanel Pour Monsieur Concentree (the current version).
Does last one hour max on me :/
For me Gucci pour homme 2 and Gucci sport.
Current favorites_____Black Tourmaline_____Gucci Pour Homme II_____Memoir Man_____Tuscan Leather______Montale Aoud and Pine_____Sel Marin_____Invasion Barbare_____Tonka Imperial____Dior Homme Intense_____L'Humaniste____Santal 33_____Bois d'Argent_____Nio_____MFK Oud_____Lumiere Noire_____Bois d'Encens_____Cuir Ottoman
guess man.............3 mins if not less
PDN Cedrat, one whiff then gone.
Lacoste essential sport? Lasted quite long on me for a sport fragrance 5 hours about in summer heat. projeection wasnt the best but not the worst.
Black by kenneth cole, CK Truth
I've at least sampled, if not owned, all of the above mentioned but I have one that beats them all by a mile ...
... Dior Cologne Royale !!!
Such a shame because it's really a nice scent.
CK Be last about 15 minutes on me, even with more than 20 sprays
Clinique Happy
Last edited by Shaka; 23rd November 2011 at 09:36 AM.
Cedrat by Parfums de Nicolaï, 15 minutes and that's it
I'll always make time for cats and roses
My great loves:
Mitsouko, L'Heure Bleue, Caron Pour un Homme, Dune, Fat Electrician, Oxford and Cambridge, Eau de Campagne, Elixir des Merveilles, Sarrasins, MKK, Ambre Sultan, Tocade, Dzing!
Current obsessions:
Le Temps d'Une Fête, Tom of Finland, Jasmin et Cigarette, Dirty (not dirty at all )
"Perfume is an invisible art form, and yet one of the most evocative and personal."
LAVANDA TONICA has really low sillage for me, but the longevity is good.

My fragrance blog: http://bigslyfragrance.wordpress.com/
well, I've seen many fragrances I liked that lasted like 30 mins to 2 hours...but worst of the worst....:
D&G The one and The one Gentlemen: About 10 minutes.
Gucci Pour Homme II: 30 seconds, literally.
Oh I forgot most of the hermessence line, save for Ambre Narguile, Paprika Brasil and Vetiver Tonka...they all last like 10 mins on me.
Last edited by Ekove; 4th September 2011 at 03:45 AM.
DEMETER fragrances are THE WORSE PERIOD!!!! You get 10 seconds of Longevity, maybe 5. SERIOUSLY!! And they are the worse MOST HORRIBLE smelling scents after that 10 seconds is up. Terrible drydowns. I'm glad I only paid $10 dollars for this stinky stuff. DO NOT BUY, what a rip off!!
Givenchy Pour Homme - non-existent
Sean John I am King - non-existent
Gucci Pour Homme II - 30 minutes?
4711 Echt Kölnisch Wasser - smells nice for a few minutes
Trumper Extract of West Indian Limes - smells nice for a few seconds
Probably the worst for me is Eau d'Orange Vert by Hermes, which is a shame because I love it. A*Men Sunessence is pretty weak, too.
Clinique Happy is pretty weak also
Voyage d'Hermès. So disappointing because I absolutely loved it while it lasted. It seems to disappear almost instantly, sprayed on clothing I get maybe 15 minutes and a little bit of an afterglow. That's it.
i forgot dior - eau savage
20 minutes and its gone
Virgin Island Water lasts about 1hr.
I've become a fan of Gucci PH II lately. Even with one spray to the chest, I get wafts of it many hours later. It's got better sillage by far than Lavanda Tonica, that's for sure, but for me it's got really good sillage period, though it never really blasts you like some frags do. I'm thinking that may be the issue for some people.

The inbounds play with 5.8 seconds left was supposed to go to a cutting Josh Folwell.
But he was covered, so Burlington Christian Academy's Jamison Jeffers threw the ball to Josh Stewart, took a handoff and dribbled a few times before rising and launching a 3 from the right wing.
No doubt it was in.
"I took off running, I knew it was going in," Jeffers said.
And when his game-winner hit the bottom of the net, Jeffers took off to run a pair of celebration laps on the euphoria of a 58-56 victory against Westchester Country Day School in the Triad Athletic Conference Tournament championship Friday night.
"I'm just glad it ended like that. I never hit a game-winner in my life and I'm really happy it happened here at BCA because all the people supported me," an ecstatic Jeffers said.
BCA was the host school for the tournament and was boosted by a passionate crowd, most of which spilled onto the court as Jeffers and the Royals celebrated.
Jeffers scored 15 points and dished out five assists while playing all 32 minutes. His shot erased a potentially devastating outcome, as the Wildcats' Kayman Mitchell converted a traditional three-point play with 16 seconds left.
There was still one second left on the clock when Jeffers' shot swished through, but the Wilcats never got off a shot.
Folwell, who led the Royals (17-6) with 21 points, had the closest view in the gym to watch the game-winner.
"I was standing right under goal and saw it go right through the net and I was just thinking to myself, 'Wow, we just won. This is a great feeling,' " Folwell said.
The senior was under the basket for most of the game, pulling in 12 rebounds. He played a key part in the third quarter, when he scored nine straight points to give BCA an eight-point lead.
His physical play on the interior was made all the more important when fellow senior Andrew Carden, who had 13 points and 12 rebounds, was forced to bench for long stretches of the second half with foul trouble.
"Obviously, (Carden is) about 6-5 and is a big rebounder for us," Folwell said. "I knew that when he was done, I had to step up and try to get the boards and stuff like that.
"I like physicality a lot. I'm a pretty rough player, so I like getting bumped and pushed and stuff like that."
That physicality, which BCA coach Brian Dehart said he knew would be an advantage, gave the Royals a lead they held for most of the second half.
"Folwell is a banger and they don't have kids that want to bang. To me, he was the difference," Dehart said.
There was extra motivation for the Royals, playing the Wildcats (17-10) for the second time this season. In the first matchup, BCA wound up on the wrong end of a 55-50 decision in High Point.
"That's the reason we really wanted to beat them," Jeffers said. "I mean, we wanted to beat them anyway because it was the conference championship, but just that they beat us the first time just made it even worse that we wanted to beat them."
Carden, who's a four-year player for BCA and was a part of a team that didn't win a conference game in his freshman season, said: "We wanted them bad, we wanted them bad. Ever since that loss. We knew we would meet them in the finals."
The game-winning play marked the fourth time in the second half that BCA scored off an inbounds play, with Jeffers making the pass on every play. The first three times, he set up one of his teammates.
"We laugh because we never run an inbounds play correctly," Dehart said. "My inbounds are set up to run off of what they give you. We're looking to cut that backdoor quick bucket.
"They haven't done it for 21 games, but (Friday) night they did it and I'm looking like a genius."
Dehart also said the victory laps indicated an inside joke among the team. Once a week during practices, BCA enjoys a round of making simulated game-winners. It's based on assistant coach Josh Rudder, who hit a couple game-winners when he played at Lenoir-Rhyne.
So when Jeffers pulled off his jersey and ran his laps, there was more to it than just the pure elation of a winning shot.
"Jamison was doing that and as a team, that was an inside joke," Dehart said. "Nobody else is in here, we're all running around making fun of each other, hitting game-winners.
"This is something you dream of, isn't it? It don't get no better than this."

Perfect Solution for no-bleeder systems

Installed this in my baseboard system that previously had no bleeders or air removal provision (except for purge valve) when I added a second zone in my basement. After just three days, all "gurgling" after refill was gone and now all my baseboards are providing even, silent heat.Definitely worth it.

We dedicate this page to our dear Cardinal Jaime Sin, who is regarded as the clearest voice of the Philippine Church. Cardinal Sin played a pivotal role in the country's new era of democracy.
"Cardinal Sin has courageously promoted human rights, social justice, democracy, peace and authentic devotion to the Eucharist and to Mary"
- Fr. Fausto Gomez, O.P., the dean of sacred theology of the Pontifical University of Santo Tomas.
I consider everything as God's handiwork… I am just an instrument. I am just like the donkey the Lord rode on. I cannot boast of anything. Everything is grace!"
- Cardinal Sin
Cardinal Jaime Sin, also Jaime Lachica Sin (August 31, 1928–June 21, 2005), was a priest of the Roman Catholic Church in the Philippines.
Cardinal Jaime Sin led the Archdiocese of Manila as its archbishop and was later elevated to the rank of cardinal by Pope Paul VI. He concurrently served as Primate of the Philippines. He retired as the Archbishop of Manila on September 15, 2003 and was succeeded by Gaudencio Borbon Rosales.
Cardinal Jaime Sin was only the third native Filipino Archbishop of Manila — following centuries of Spanish, American and Irish episcopacy. He died at the age of 76 on June 21, 2005.
Priesthood and episcopacy
Cardinal Jaime Sin was born in New Washington, Aklan, Philippines to Juan Sin (of overseas Chinese ancestry) and Maxima Lachica. He was the fourteenth of sixteen children. He eventually left his boyhood home and his family to study in seminary.
On April 3, 1954, he was ordained to the presbyterium and became a priest of the Archdiocese of Jaro. He was appointed its auxiliary bishop on February 10, 1967. Following his appointment, he was ordained as bishop of the titular see of Obba on March 18 of that year.
On March 15, 1972, Sin was appointed Coadjutor Archbishop of Jaro, taking on administrative roles in the archdiocese. Concurrently, he was created archbishop of the titular see of Massa Lubrense.
On October 8, 1972, Sin assumed the office of Archbishop of Jaro, taking full control of the archdiocese.
Sin's service as Archbishop of Jaro ended with his appointment on January 21, 1974 to the larger archdiocese seated in the nation's capital of Manila. Sin was officially installed as Archbishop of Manila at Manila Cathedral on March 19, 1974.
On May 24 of 1976, Pope Paul VI summoned Sin to the Holy See to be raised into membership of the College of Cardinals, created Cardinal Priest of the titular church of Santa Maria ai Monti. Cardinal Jaime Sin remained the youngest member of the College until 1983.
People Power Movement
Events in the Philippines under President Ferdinand Marcos forced Cardinal Jaime Sin, the spiritual leader of all Filipino Catholics, to become involved in the politics of the region. Cardinal Jaime Sin became witness to corruption, fraud and even murder at the hands of the regime — events that pushed Filipinos on the brink of civil unrest and even war.
Cardinal Jaime Sin appealed to Filipinos of all religions to follow the teachings of Jesus in the Gospels and use peaceful means to change the political situation in the Philippines.
At the same time, President Marcos and First Lady Imelda Marcos, appealed to Cardinal Jaime Sin to side with the regime. Sin respectfully pleaded with the president and first lady to refrain from unleashing the armed forces against Filipinos marching in the streets of Manila.
President Marcos ordered his generals to deploy against the marchers, however, tanks and troops were stopped in the streets with people on their knees praying the Rosary and singing English language translations of sacred hymns. Some soldiers decided to join the marchers.
Cardinal Jaime Sin was convinced it was a miracle granted by the faith of his followers in God and nonviolence.
What later became known as the People Power Movement or the EDSA Revolution, President Marcos, his family and close advisors were forced to flee the Philippines — taking up residence in Honolulu, Hawaii upon the invitation of President of the United States Ronald Reagan.
Cardinal Jaime Sin, along with Presidents Corazon Aquino and Fidel Ramos, became known to Filipinos as the architects of the People Power Movement.
Cardinal Jaime Sin was called upon Filipinos again in 2001 to become the spiritual leader of another People Power Movement. Filipinos alleged that President Joseph Estrada was guilty of widespread corruption and graft. Marches in the streets, with the support of Sin, succeeded in toppling President Estrada from power and elevating Gloria Macapagal Arroyo as his successor.
Cardinal Jaime Sin was decorated three times by the Philippine government. The first was by President Corazon C. Aquino, who conferred him with the Philippine Legion of Honor, rank of Chief Commander; the second, by President Joseph Estrada, who confered on him the Order of Sikatuna, rank of Rajah; the final time was shortly after his retirement, when President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo conferred on him the Order of Lakandula, rank of Bayani (Grand Cross).
Although his name prompted many jokes – a cardinal sin is one of the seven deadly sins – Cardinal Jaime Sin himself made light of it. He often referred to his residence as "the house of Sin."
Retirement and death
Cardinal Jaime Sin retired as the Archbishop of Manila on September 15, 2003 and was succeeded by Gaudencio Borbon Rosales. He was too ill to travel to the conclave which elected Pope Benedict XVI.
The prelate — for years afflicted with a kidney ailment brought on by diabetes — was taken on June 19, 2005 to the Rufino Cardinal Santos Medical Center in San Juan, Metro Manila because of a slight but lingering fever. Cardinal Jaime Sin died of renal failure June 21, 2005 at 6:15 a.m.. He was 76 years old.

Influential Cardinal Jaime Sin dies at 76
As reported by PAUL ALEXANDER, Associated Press Writer Tue Jun 21, 7:46 AM ET
MANILA, Philippines – Roman Catholic Cardinal Jaime Sin, an outspoken advocate of democracy who played a key role in the "people power" revolts that ousted two Philippine presidents, died Tuesday. He was 76. Cardinal Jaime Sin had been ill with kidney problems and diabetes for years and was unable to attend the Vatican conclave that chose a new pope in April, although colleagues said he desperately wanted to go.
Known for his dedication, engaging personality and sense of humor — he often referred to his residence as "the house of Sin" — the cardinal was one of Asia's most prominent religious leaders.
Cardinal Jaime Sin served as the moral compass in the overwhelmingly Catholic Philippines, where he took vocal, sometimes controversial stances on everything from birth control to poverty, politics and the U.S.-led war in Iraq. He once apologized for church neglect of the poor.
President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, who continued to seek his counsel even after he retired in November 2003, called him "a blessed man who never failed to unite Filipinos during the most crucial battles against tyranny and evil."
"Cardinal Jaime Sin leaves a legacy of freedom and justice forged in deep personal courage," Arroyo said in a statement.
The U.S. Embassy, in a statement, said: "We recognize his many contributions to the political, spiritual and moral life of the Philippines, and we extend our condolences to his family and to the Catholic faithful."
Aides had to help a weak-looking Cardinal Jaime Sin to the altar toward the end of his tenure as Manila archbishop. But he remained a staunch defender of democracy after he stepped down as head of the archdiocese that he served for nearly three decades.
"As I enter a new chapter in my twilight years, I can say with gratitude that I have given my very best to God and country," he said after the late Pope John Paul II accepted his resignation. "I beg pardon from those I might have led astray or hurt. Please remember me kindly."
Father Jun Sescon, Sin's spokesman, told DZBB radio that the cardinal was taken to Cardinal Santos Medical Center with a high fever on Sunday evening and suffered multiple organ failure. Cardinal Jaime Sin died at 6:15 a.m. Tuesday.
"Our call to all the faithful is to include in their prayers the soul of Cardinal Sin," Sescon said.
The 14th of 16 children of a Chinese merchant and a Filipino woman, Cardinal Jaime Sin balanced joviality with deep spirituality and seemed to have a sixth sense, said Archbishop Oscar Cruz, former president of the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines.
"He would say, 'A bishop just died, would you please call to find out who he is?'" Cruz recalled.
Cardinal Jaime Sin burst onto the international stage when he called on Filipinos to surround the police and military headquarters in metropolitan Manila in 1986 to protect then-military Vice Chief of Staff Fidel Ramos and Defense Minister Juan Ponce Enrile, who broke away from dictator Ferdinand Marcos.
That led to the "people power" revolution that ousted Marcos over alleged corruption and human rights violations. The largely peaceful revolt became a harbinger of change in authoritarian regimes worldwide. Marcos died in exile in Hawaii in 1989.
But the country's problems continued, partly because of the endemic corruption that blossomed under Marcos.
"We got rid of Ali Baba, but the 40 thieves remained," Sin once quipped.
Cardinal Jaime Sin also helped lead large street protests that led to the ouster of President Joseph Estrada over alleged corruption and misrule in January 2001. The church wasn't fond of Estrada, a notorious womanizer who sired children by several women and was known for late-night drinking and gambling sessions.
Impoverished followers of Estrada, denouncing Sin and politicians who forced their leader from power, stormed the presidential palace in May 2001 in riots that killed six people.
Sin issued an unprecedented apology to the poor shortly thereafter, acknowledging that the church had neglected them and made them easy prey for selfish, powerful people. He offered reconciliation to the poor and assured them that the church is not "anti-Estrada, but pro-morality."
Although revered by many Filipinos, Cardinal Jaime Sin came under criticism over his active advocacies. He had a thorny relationship with President Fidel Ramos, a Protestant whose 1992-98 administration promoted the use of artificial birth control. Sin advocated only natural methods.
Church leaders were consulting with Cardinal Jaime Sin's family on funeral arrangements. His body was to be buried in the crypt beneath Manila Cathedral.

It lies at the mouth of Scariff Bay an inlet of Lough Derg which gives its name to an unpleasant breeze known to fishermen in particular as the 'Scariff Breeze'. Mountshannon is the nearest village to the island which is placed in the midst of some of the most beautiful scenery in the whole of Ireland.Prior to 1849 it formed part of Co. Clare but in that year it was transferred to Co.Galway. In 1899 soon after the passing of The Local Government Act it was restored to Clare. Ecclesiastically it belongs to the Diocese of Killaloe. It has a fine round tower but the top is missing and the ruins of several small churches and cells as well as part of 4 high crosses and a holy well. The cemetery on this island is still in use the coffins being transported from the Clare side in small boats.
