Many thanks for the lovely review, Key! Another Caron I'm not familiar with.
Thread: Acaciosa parfum- a Caron
Called the Caron boutique in NYC a couple weeks ago (finally!) and the kind and friendly Diane Haska set me up with some samples. Of the ones I've tried I feel I definitely need to sample them all again. So far they are all saturated, strongly emotional fragrances- even the ones I haven't as much cared for. It has made me curious to try their whole line.
Today I am trying out Acaciosa. Oh- what a truly lovely floral this is. Rich, deep- opens with an orange blossom note and gets deeper and sweeter with jasmine and rose yet retains a bit of brightness due to the pineapple-like note. This reminds me of a rose garden in early summer with the addition of other lovely blooms- the only thing that is missing is the buzzing of insects! The only other fragrance I can seem to compare it to is Jil Sander No 4, but at the moment that one (even in the parfum) feels like a harsher composition than the Caron. Close to 40 minutes later I could detect a slightly soapy/clean note through the florals, but it doesn't overwhelm and only serves to enhance the over-all composition. Close to an hour later the warmth of the base (this is stated as having an ambergris base- real or synthetic I am not sure) starts to come through. There is also a slight, root kind of warmth. I'm wondering if there isn't a touch of vetiver as well? Am awaiting the final dryout with anticipation.
Scent is such a lovely, simple pleasure!
Many thanks for the lovely review, Key! Another Caron I'm not familiar with.
"Wovon man nicht lesen kann, darüber muss man schreiben."
Is that a new one? I've never heard of it either, but it sounds wonderful!
Acaciosa is one of their Urn fragrances and I believe created around 1924. The literature they sent with the samples didn't talk about the dates created unfortunately. However, I've been collecting info on Carons for several years now. My notes say 1924 for this one.Originally Posted by justcurious
BTW- In its final dryout it has dried down to a warm, skin scent that smells very classical. Some of the older perfumes from the houses of Faberge and Coty come to mind- before the formulations were changed or tinkered with (Emeraude, Tigress, Woodhue.) We're talking final drydown though. Perhaps a smidge of indole from the jasmine is left- but it's very warm and skin-like. With newer fragrances, I'd be about ready to re-apply, but this is a very smooth, almost "intimate" fragrance on its own. Too bad my sweetie is traveling; I wonder what the "nuzzle rating" of this one is? [smiley=grin.gif]
Scent is such a lovely, simple pleasure!
I love Acaciosa at first, but eventually I find the pineapple note starts to cloy. Too sweet.
Then I must have at the very least smelled it on a testing strip. I am pretty sure I tried all of the urns in the NYC boutique. Funny that I have no memory of it! Thanks again for the great description, I'll have to look for a sample.
I Love many Carons!!! Acosiosa was not for me!!! I found it a bit suffocating and reminded me of old ladies who wear perfume to cover up other scents. I think I like the more dark incensey Carons. Nuit de Noel, Narcisse Noir, En Avion, even or et Noir and I'm a huge Alpona fan!!!
Maybe Caron Florals and I do not make for good mates
Interesting as my experience seems to be the other way around- although I haven't tried my sample of En Avion yet. Alpona smelled like chlorine on me and Nuit de Noel reminded me of church and funerals with old relatives that I had been to as a child but those two I'm not trying in this batch of samples. Of the other ones I've tried (while Basenotes was down) I feel I need to re-sample.Originally Posted by Buffalo_Gal
Thanks for your thoughts everyone. I certainly am more a floral lover.
Scent is such a lovely, simple pleasure!

Haven't tested Alpona yet but NdN smells very warm and cosy to me: it reminds me of log fire and furs for some reason.
Looking forward to reading more your Caron reviews, Key! [smiley=smiley.gif]
"Wovon man nicht lesen kann, darüber muss man schreiben."
Key, thank you for enunciating that: I keep finding I'm having similar reactions to the Caron extraits, and I've wondered if I'm over-partial or over-enthusiastic. I've sampled Caron parfums I wouldn't dream of wearing myself (at least, not to the office) like Fleurs de Rocaille and With Love, and I'm amazed at how I can still feel moved by many of them.Originally Posted by Artisankey
I've been a little afraid of sampling Acaciosa, since I'm never really sure what kind of acacia is supposed to be 'captured' or depicted. The mimosa scents I've encountered are seemingly deceptive: I love them when I catch a whiff from a distance, but a close encounter sends me 'running for the hills'. I may need to overcome my fear sometime in the future, just for the sake of curiosity.
Thanks for the review, Key! I'm really pleased you've taken the Caron plunge!
I have a sample of Acaciosa upon first trying I thought oh this is rather sweet cloying. But a while later decided to try wearing all day. OK I would not consider buying it but it is a lovely warm floral and very elegant.
On me Alpona is wonderful as is Nuit de Noel. Chemistery strikes again!
LOL.....We obviously have opposite skin chemistry or opposite noses.Originally Posted by Artisankey
Its wonderful to have a fragrance opposite!!! we can know if either of us likes a scent the other wont and if either of us hates a scent we should run to try it My Hubby & Dad didn't like the acociosa on me either....both shriveled up their noses and pulled their faces away from my wrist. I must masacre florals or something LOL.....
Diane the floral slayer....
I actually don't hate all florals and there are florals I can wear.....
just not Caron's florals
Thanks for the wonderful review....keep em coming!
I know there are many fans of Caron around here, yet here is a fragrance that so rarely gets mentioned along with bigger names like Tabac Blond and Bellodgia. The last thread on it was from half a decade ago ( ! ), so I thought I'd bring up a chance to revisit and discuss this one.
Personally, I love it, but I have a tendency to fall for "difficult" florals, and Acaciosa is no exception. The top notes of the parfum extrait are almost unpleasant for me, rather musty, aldehydic, waxy, and smelling "old" not in the sense of "vintage" but something that's gone off from hanging around in some dusty attic corner for years. Adding to this, these are top notes of extraordinary tenacity, and it takes a good hour or so for these to dissipate entirely.
In my opinion, the wait is well worth it, however, as once those off-colored top notes fade away, I'm left with a rich, darkly floral blend that is one of the nicest and most unique I've experienced. Many have referenced Joy, and while there is a similarity, Acasiosa has a different personality to my nose - less about rose, more about orange flower, and for all the world I swear this the closest to a floral reproduction of karo karounde ( minus the honey-mustard edge of the tincture ) I've smelled. It's warmly animalic without a definite edge of fecal civet or sweaty castoreum, darkly floral without ever smelling dense, dried, or powdery.
In terms of visualization, the term "white floral" seems inappropriate. The jasmine present isn't of the explosive headiness of many purer jasmine fragrances, and everything seems rich and edgeless, rounded off by a resinous amber that becomes noticeable in the base. There's something golden about it; full-blown late summer flowers, just starting to fade with the first cool evenings of Fall.
Though the sillage is surprisingly light, Acaciosa lasts and lasts on me, and was fully present a good eighteen hours after I put it on.
I must thank Mysticknot for giving me a chance to smell this! It's not something I would have thought to search out on my own.
Intrigued to hear your thoughts on this one.
Oh Galamb- you do so much better than me at describing this perfume. It is unusual ,a beauty and trust Caron to have such a wonderful perfume .
To me it is reminiscent of Joy parfum extrait -vintage. Complex, dark ,rich I I'm glad you love it.
For sale. Carnal Flower and Vero Profumo Onda.
ha! I just got my sample from Mysticknot yesterday :-) I'll wear this weekend and report back on what I thought. Sigh... I can't keep finding Caron's to love
I know Luca Turin savages Acaciosa, bully! I have a sample of the extract and remember thinking, OH pineapple!!! I read the notes and it said pineapple, so I had this idea of tinned pineapples. I do get fruit in with the white flowers and aldehyde but not finger pointing thats pineapple. I think of it as sophisticated, but I consider Caron's all sophisticated. I knew a full bottle was not for me.
I'd love to try some vintage Acaciosa, but that seems about as likely as a unicorn sighting at this point, I'm afraid, so I'll have to deal with the Luca-trashed version as is.
Interestingly, my mother cannot stand this stuff, and finds it very fecal - says it smells like a cat went to the bathroom in a box of baby powder.
I smelled Acaciosa in Grasse @ meeting with Osmothèque
I don't like, I don't know THE note I hate here, but IMHO Farnesiana is the best Caron on cassie flower
A, quales ego mane rosas procedere vidi!
Nascebantur adhuc neque erat par omnibus aetas.
I love both Farnesiana and Acasiosa. I think it would be very hard for me to pick between the two... Farnesiana is all sunshine and happiness; a sunny day at the bakery, by the mimosa tree. Acaciosa is a wistful, almost sad fragrance of fading flowers and ambery depth. I think Farnesiana is more aesthetically pleasing but Acaciosa has a stronger emotional appeal to me, despite - or perhaps because of - its flawed character.
I didn't quite go for Farnesiana. I see that I must try Acaciosa. Thanks for the excellent review, GB!
I'll be curious to read what BayKAT thinks of this.
Huanani - I'm looking through your wardrobe and tested list and can't quite find a direct analogy. The closest I can come is that there is an ambery note in the drydown a smidgen like L'Ombre Fauve, but not quite. Happy to send off my sample to you if you like!
Oh, I just adore Acaciosa and have worn it for ages; unfortunately I have not used it in a while now. It is one of those scents that has substance but never overwhelms, yet it is not an everyday type of a fragrance; something is just too special about it. Whenever I have worn it I have thought that it has a touch of melancholy to it. It makes me think of a scent one would wear while looking through old photos and reminiscing.
It has an animalic note, but not an overly heavy one. The jasmine in it is just superb and the type that feels almost creamy, not the sharp jasmine so common in many scents. It has a certain weight to it, not that it is heavy, just weighty in substance. A true masterpiece of a bygone era.
GB you are correct in noting how under-appreciated this great scent is, even I have overlooked it for longer than I care to mention.

Editing to add that the Caron jasmine is very unique, a sort of candied jasmine. For those who like/love Acaciosa, Montaigne is a must try. The newer Edp has the same jasmine, but with wonderful bitter orange at the top and the orange continues to linger throughout. The pineapple at the top of Acaciosia, I would say is overripe, but only after I was told it was pineapple did I get it. Not edible.
As far as The Guide is concerned. Whatever. I love it, wear it and that is what counts.
I agree with Vidacon - Montaigne is great- I loved it immediately.
For sale. Carnal Flower and Vero Profumo Onda.
Glad to see there are fans of Acaciosa out there.
Interesting reading - from Vidacon's comments on this thread and Brielle's on another thread, it sounds like Montaigne is my next stop in Caron land!
I'm please to learn there are so many fans of Acaciosa on this site -- I first tried it when I was just getting back into perfumes a few years ago. I thought it was wonderful. It made me think of late spring in GA when everything is blooming and drenched with sun, and therefore sleepily beautiful. I don't wear Acaciosa that often, but it is definitely one of my favorite Carons. Now I have to try Farnesiana!
OK, I just put htis on. Surprisingly it does not stinketh straight out of the bottle like most Carons.
Looking forward to seeing what will happen.
Reviewd! Liked. I do get fresh citrus something, most likely pineapple. lovely!
Interesting thread! I agree with Mims' Joy association, which must be due to the Caron jasmine. I did get the pineapple note. The drydown reveals IMO that this has not only shared the bottle and box design with the preceding Pois de Senteur, but also that it could be meant as a variation on the theme. I picture Acaciosa as the perfect escape in the big city hassle on a cold, wet winter day to a tropical island sipping a Piña Colada under a palm tree. I also wrote a review about it. In the end, I can enjoy this, but it is too sweet for me.

I have wanted to explore the urn fragrances and this thread has pushed me over the edge! Just ordered samples of Farnesiana and Acasiosa from TPC
And I just found out how to pronounce it: http://fragnameoftheday.blogspot.com.../acaciosa.html
Furrypine, Farnesiana is quite a journey over several hours and Acaciosa is big fun! ENJOY!
Ah Colony! I happened to sample most of the Ma Collection EdTs a few weeks ago (I also wrote reviews for them, because there are hardly any available, but they are still in the pipeline for approval...). Anyway, if you got the pineapple note in this, you should easily get it in Acaciosa, too. It is listed as a specific note for Acaciosa in the Caron book, too.
Another fan here! l have Suga to thank for giving me the opportunity to sample this gorgeous fragrance; one that l probably wouldn't have sought out otherwise. l agree with the words "candied" & "golden" in describing it. l don't find it melancholy at all, though; perhaps "daydreamy" (is that a word? lt is now! ) would describe it better for me. l get the slight mustiness in the opening, then the pineapple, & then gloriously warm, creamy, soapy jasmine & a lovely ambery base. lt lasts an extraordinary 10 hours on me. A decant of this is definitely in my future. l agree it doesn't get enough mentions around here!

Thank you Artisankey, it's interesting to hear you see some similarities to Jil Sander No 4, which I really like.
I'm inserting my comment from the Pois de Senteur thread here...
Interesting to hear from Suga that Acaciosa's drydown is so reminicent of a musk available in Egypt. I must say that I have wondered whether Acaciosa could refer to 'faux-acacia', a robinia (black locust)... the vintage ads look so much like the leaves and flowers on the trees here. Locally, they are called 'acacia' here, too, which is botanically incorrect, but I could also find a similar reference in French. It is one beguiling, dense and sultry smell for sure... I will cross-check for sure next May.
I am test-driving Acaciosa once again today. It is giving me a much darker impression than last summer when I wrote my review. I can clearly detect a not too weak animalic component well incorporated into the overall structure. I am not saying this is like, but clearly it makes me think of Neil Morris' Gandhara. Acaciosa on me today is nearly as dark and dirty. However, the waxy 'candied jasmine' overtone does not go away in Acaciosa. Oh my oh my, not yet another Caron love for me....
I would love if Mon-Petit, who was in the process of getting a vintage Acaciosa, could join in and maybe Furrypine as well how his sampling went? Please, guys!
Well Larimar, I got my sample of Acaciosa and I look with horror how much of it I have used.
It's a glorious scent, very old fashioned but there is nothing "old lady"-ish about it, it's just far beyond fragrance trends. I wonder if it was ever on trend? This is the only urn fragrances I've tried that worked from the get go, no foul top notes to work through .
Earlier in the thread I wondered how Acaciosa would compare with Colony, and I feel Acaciosa is a better fit for me. I have a sweet tooth, and with Acaciosa I get the pineapple without the chypre edge of Colony.
The others above has described Acaciosa so well, I can only concur. Now I need to save up for a bottle of it, decants will not suffice any more!
Oh how great, furrypine! I agree it is glorious (of bygone days) and old-fashioned, but in a timeless way. I have only half of my sample left and I am thinking I should consider a bottle of this (before going for Tubereuse). I much more love Acaciosa now in winter... I felt it was a bit over-the-top for me in summer. Thanks for joining in, furrypine!
Meanwhile, Acaciosa is on top of my buy list for April when I am in Paris...
I also had the chance to sample a vintage (older) Acaciosa and I got hold of two minis of vintage extrait (newer - 1990s?)... they all - including my sample of the current smell very much alike and clearly like Acaciosa and what makes it so special for all its admirers. However, taking chances of being stoned, but I think Richard Fraysse improved Acaciosa by giving it the extraordinary longevity it has now. The vintages (both forms) last decidedly less long on my skin. I still have a feeling the smell of the black locust trees in bloom in coming May (it's this sort of overripe, almost animalic, rich smell) will be a close match to the parfum. I do need to update here when the time comes...
However, this is not the reason for bumping this thread. Acaciosa seemed to be in very very limited distribution (in fact, Paris only?) in the past years and now I heard from Caron that it is uncertain whether yet another batch can be produced. Caron is currently selling what they have left, so my impression from last April was correct - no longer an own fountain at Boutique Montaigne was no good sign (this was also true for Alpona). Acaciosa certainly has a small following. Sugandaraja has done a splendid review futher above. So, if you feel you need Acaciosa in your life, now is a good time to get it.
Resurrecting this old thread since I stopped at the Caron boutique yesterday and got some Acaciosa parfum, in whatever version is there. I thought it was discontinued, they told may still do some from time to time, but were not sure.
In any case, the current version is an animalic bomb. I imagined a deep jasmine, but, as some reviews above say, I do not get much jasmine per se. What I get is an oily, thick cassie, with boatloads of indefinite sweetish animalics. Perhaps I am oversensitive to these animalics. Wonderful. At times, it remembers things like Ferme tes yeux (which by chance I smelled soon after). But I have not tried it on skin, just on paperstrip, so things could be very different on skin. I will do so when I go back to the US in a couple of weeks.
Incidentally, Turin trashes whatever Acaciosa edt was around in 2007. He does not review the parfum for the Carons. The parfum is nothing like the description of the edt he did in his old guide (light orange blossom?)

cacio, to my knowledge and also according to the Hattemberg Caron bible there has never been any other concentration but extrait. I agree about the sweet animalicness, but I feel the main accord, if one simplified the formula, is an orange blossom - jasmine not unlike Narcisse Noir, although the latter is today one-dimensional and dull (without the civet and musks). It struck me when I had a friend sample it and I had returned to that room after one or two minutes. I felt there was definitely a Narcisse Noir vibe in the air.
thanks for the info. LTTS usually review the lightest concentration - but if there is only parfum, that should be it. Who knows what juice was around in 2007. But perhaps, it is just me who is hypersensitive to the musks in there, because to me the main note is a wonderfully dirty one. To my nose, it doesnt smell like orange blossom jasmine - the florals are there, but not the primary note that jumps to my nose. Somebody here mentioned candied jasmine, and I can feel that. But it is very dirty.
It does definitely feel grand, fit for a vamp ruining mens lives, and if Narcisse Noir had a similar feel, I can see all the legend about it, which is definitely not there in the current version of NN. I now regret I only bought 7ml...
I'm the opposite of you, cacio. I perceive 'scandalously' animalic perfumes as having just the right omph. It's decidedly smoky and musky on me and way more daring than Narcisse Noir (mine is not the old stuff with natural civet and musks, of which I only have a small decant). The low(er) sillage and the smokiness is what makes it wearable.

BUAV campaign to end UK involvement in wild-caught primate trade gains widespread support
BUAV's call to the Government to end the UK's import of the offspring of wild-caught monkeys for research in the UK has gained momentum with the support of politicians, academics, primatologists, zoologists and other scientists, wildlife experts and celebrities. All have signed up to an Open Letter to the Prime Minister, David Cameron. The letter was published in The Times, The Guardian and New Stateman and personally delivered to Downing Street by the BUAV's Chief Executive Michelle Thew in March 2011.
Support for the BUAV campaign comes from leading primatologist and Founder of the Jane Goodall Foundation, Dr Jane Goodall, actress and wildlife campaigner Virginia McKenna, environmentalist Jonathon Porritt, conservationist Ian Redmond, author Richard Adams, TV wildlife presenters Simon King, Bill Oddie, Michaela Strachan and Mark Carwardine along with celebrities such as Dr Brian May, Ricky Gervais, Jenny Seagrove and Toyah Wilcox. Other individuals to sign up include barrister Michael Mansfield, human rights campaigner Peter Tatchell and leading academics and scientists such as Professor Roger Crisp, Professor William McGrew, Revd Professor Andrew Linzey, Professor Stephen Harris, Professor Michael Balls, Professor Vernon Reynolds, Dr Anna Nekaris, Professor Simon Bearder and Professor Jonathan Wolff. Politicians include David Blunkett MP, Vernon Coaker MP, Caroline Lucas MP, Zac Goldsmith MP, Chris Davies MEP, Jillian Evans MEP, Nigel Dodds MP and Charles Kennedy MP.
Over 100 MPs have also signed an Early Day Motion (EDM 957) which also calls on the government to end the UK's involvement in the wild-caught primate trade.
Many primates used in UK laboratories are imported from countries such as Mauritius, and despite a ban on the use of wild-caught primates in research since 1997, there is no such ban on their offspring or those from farms which trap wild primates for breeding purposes. The capture of primates from the wild inflicts great suffering which has been recognised by a number of organisations and official bodies, including the UK government's own advisory committee, the Animal Procedures Committee. A recent BUAV investigation on Mauritius exposed the cruelty and suffering inflicted on monkeys as they are ripped from their jungle homes and families for the international research industry.
The BUAV urges the Government to end the UK's involvement in this cruel trade by introducing a ban on the importation of the offspring of wild-caught monkeys, as well as those from any breeding facility that captures monkeys from the wild.
What the experts say:
Ian Redmond OBE, field biologist and conservationist: "In the 21st century, knowing what we do about primate cognition and their capacity to suffer, it is totally unacceptable to capture wild monkeys to breed babies for what is essentially a 19th century approach to medical science. New research tools make the use of non-human primates as living test-tubes obsolete. Rather, we should value the role of monkeys and apes as keystone species in their habitats - especially the tropical forest ecosystems that we urgently need to protect to stablise our changing climate and provide rainfall to water the world."
Virginia McKenna OBE, actress, author and Founder of the Born Free Foundation: "It is totally inconsistent to ban the adults and experiment on the young. Such cruelty and lack of compassion should shame us."
Professor Vernon Reynolds, Professor Emeritus, Oxford University and Founder of the Budongo Conservation Field Station, Uganda: "As a lifelong primatologist and a senior member of the academic community I was shocked to realise this was going on so that our medical laboratories can have 'subjects' to use for experiments."
Peter Tatchell, human rights campaigner: "Congratulations to BUAV for their campaign against the trade in the offspring of wild-caught nonhuman primates and their abuse in research laboratories. It is time Britain and the EU ended this barbaric trafficking and mistreatment of these intelligent, social animals who feel and suffer the pain of confinement and experimentation."
Mark Carwadine, TV presenter, conservationist and wildlife photographer: "We should be showing our non-human relatives more respect."
Michaela Strachan, wildlife presenter and conservationist: "When you've worked closely with primates like I have, the thought of using them for medical experiments is just abhorrent. How can anyone with an ounce of compassion accept the sight of a monkey being caged and experimented on, often in cruel and painful ways. Surely medical science has come on enough for us to not have to put primates through this kind of appalling suffering anymore. Britain made a stand by not allowing the use of wild caught primates in laboratories, but laboratories are now importing the offspring of wild primates. Let's just put an end to the use of primates in laboratories altogether. I think the time is well overdue."
Jenny Seagrove, actress: "What happens to these wild monkeys is terrible. I am glad to join the BUAV in their letter calling on Prime Minister David Cameron to end the UK's involvement in this cruel trade."
David Spratt, chartered scientist, chartered biologist and zoologist: "The white coats of the scientist who carry out this work should be a symbol of hope and of humanities efforts to protect humans, animals, and the environment. Instead, they become the blood stained butchers aprons of those who put academia and profit before compassion and empathy with all living creatures. The abuse of animals by the vivisectionists continue only because society has been led to believe that it benefits from it, but anyone who has enough courage to recognise the physical and psychological pain suffered by animals in the dark recesses of animal research laboratories will oppose it wholeheartedly. It is because the BUAV is committed to exposing the unpalatable truth behind this suffering that I am honoured to be able to support this campaign – and all their campaigns to bring an end to the practice of animal experimentation."

svn co http://svn.codehaus.org/ashcroft/guantanamo
Do you have problems maintaining high test coverage? All code is guilty until tested innocent. Send the untested code to Guantanamo!
Guantanamo is a tool that can delete all code lines that are not covered by tests. It can also delete code that is not covered by the application itself. Guantanamo is part of the Extreme XP Tools family. Some thoughts about why it was created are written down here. Consider this sample coverage report by Clover:
Guantanamo has an Ant task that you can use to remove untested (in other words, unreliable) code. It is defined like this:
<taskdef name="guantanamo" classname="org.codehaus.guantanamo.ant.GuantanamoTask"> <classpath> <pathelement location="lib/guantanamo.jar"/> <pathelement location="lib/xpp3-1.1.2a.jar"/> </classpath> </taskdef>
And used like this:
<guantanamo clover="target/clover/main/coverage-report/clover.xml" dest="target/clover/guantanamo"/>
Where to write the modified sources
Path to Clover XML Coverage file (clover.xml)
Path to JCoverage XML Coverage file (coverage.xml)
One and only one of these must be specified.
After you have run Guantanamo over your sources, you can run Clover over the guantanamoed sources again and see the wonders it has done. In the case of our example, it would look like the following:
Guantanamo is eating its own dog food. When it came to a working state, I ran it over itself, just to discover that there were lots of lines of code that were never executed. They no longer exist. And Guantanamo is still working fine. In fact, it has 100% coverage
This is maybe one of the more instersting usages of Guantanamo. Just instrument your code with Clover or JCoverage (EMMA coming soon) and run the application in the normal way. When the application exits there will be coverage data about what is actually being used by the application. Try running Guantanamo over this coverage report. I'm sure you'll find something different than what you found from running it in conjunction with your tests. You may have to delete some tests that tested "orphan" code!
Guantanamo has hijacked Ashcroft's JIRA, where you can post patches, bugs and feature requests.
Q: Does the deleted code get deleted from the original sources?
A: No. The original sources are always left unchanged. Guantanamo writes the modified sources to a different folder that you have to specify. It's up to you if you want to transport them back to where they came from.
Q: What about good code without tests? Will it be taken away and sent to Guantanamo too?
A: Yes. We follow our own rules here. Your code has to prove its innocence through coverage. We don't have to prove that the code has bugs, we just assume it has. And therefore it must be taken away. It is for your own security.
Q: If good code is removed, doesn't this question the validity of Guantanamo itself?
A: You can't prove that untested code is good. Things that cannot be proven good must go.
Q: Have you considered that enforcing too strict XP policies on developers may turn them against XP as a whole?
A: Mind your own business, or we'll send your operating system to Guantanamo as well. If you're not with us, you're against us you sloppy waterfall coder! If it isn't 100% covered it is evil, evil, evil!
Q: Why did you choose such a bad-taste name?
A: What's bad taste - the name, or what's going on there? Would you rather look the other way and give the tool a nice name like "summer breeze"?

NBA owners on Wednesday voted against Chris Hansen's bid to relocate the Sacramento Kings to Seattle.
The vote was 22-8.
This is going to be short; I have a game to get to in Oklahoma City, NBA Commissioner David Stern said to start his press conference. We're able to report to you that the NBA Board of Governors voted to reject the relocation of the Sacramento Kings to Seattle.
Poll:What did you think of Stern's Oklahoma City comment?
The NBA Board of Governors met in Dallas to resolve the tug of war over the Kings between a group in Seattle that wants to move them and a group in Sacramento that wants the franchise to stay put.
The board heard from representatives for both sides -- Seattle ownership group leader Chris Hansen and Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson. Each side was given 45 minutes to make its presentation.
Follow KING 5's Chris Daniels onTwitter, reporting from Dallas
The Seattle presentation was brisk, firm, excellent and reflected the efforts that have been put into this and the extraordinary ownership group that they have put together, said NBA Commissioner David Stern.
At the conclusion, though, the committee voted, and recommended to the board and was adopted that if the Sacramento community could produce a site, a construction team, a financially strong ownership group and the kind of support by the city and the region that the Mayor Johnson has galvanized, then the appropriate outcome was to keep the team in Seattle, and that's what they did, said Stern.
After months of staying quiet and letting the process play out, the Seattle group trying to purchase the Kings went on the offensive following the NBA relocation committee's decision on April 29 to recommend denying the move.
Hansen and Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer raised their purchase offer of the Kings by $75 million and negotiated a back-up deal with the Maloof family in an effort to sway owners to vote in their favor.
Asked about the Hansen back-up bid, Stern said there was nothing in writing for group to vote on regarding that.
Seattle Mayor Mike McGinn issued a statement saying he shares the disappointment of Sonics fans, but we are in this for the long haul.
The Memorandum of Understanding we have with Chris Hansen is for five years, and we will continue working to bring the NBA back to Seattle. I want to express my thanks and appreciation to Chris Hansen, Steve Ballmer, and the Nordstroms for their hard work and dedication to bringing the Sonics home.
This is a tough loss, but we're encouraged by just how far we've come in the last year, said Metropolitan King County Council Chair Larry Gossett. Mr. Hansen has put Seattle back on the NBA map, and I know it's a matter of when-not if-that the Supersonics will return.
I'm disappointed by today's decision. I know the work will continue, said Council Budget Chair Joe McDermott. Mr. Hansen's vision has brought us this far, and I look forward to the Sonics returning to Seattle.
Gossett and McDermott said the NBA was reminded that Seattle is still a viable location for an NBA franchise.
Kevin Calabro, the former voice of the Sonics, remains optimistic Seattle will get a team.
The Sonics will be coming back, I believe, as an expansion team and I think it will be coming back when the new TV contract is in full swing, which will be the 15- 16 season, he said. It would fall in line with the framework of the MOU, so I m optimistic.
Seattle has been without an NBA franchise since the SuperSonics moved. Led by star Kevin Durant, the Thunder have made the playoffs four straight seasons, reached the Western Conference finals in 2011 and lost to Miami in last year's NBA finals.
The NBA's relocation committee, coincidentally headed by Bennett, voted unanimously last month to reject the bid to move the Kings.
In a letter sent to the relocation and finance committees during its April 17 meeting, the Maloofs said they preferred to sell to the Seattle group and expressed discontent with Sacramento's latest bid, saying it falls significantly short.
Eight owners did vote for the move - including Blazers owner and Seattle-Ite Paul Allen.
It was important for him to be supportive of Seattle, said Vulcan CEO Peter McLoughlin, who represented the Blazers at the meeting.
The stage is now set for the NBA to force the Maloofs to sell the franchise to a back-up group, yet George Maloof is noncommittal.
There is no pressure on us... zero, he said.
The NBA's incoming commissioner, Adam Silver, did open the door a bit.
Expansion was discussion as a least a possibility down the road, we will have to wait and see, he said.
Hansen spent nearly two years working to get an arena plan approved by the city and county governments and spent more than $65 million buying land in Seattle's SoDo neighborhood where the arena would be built. Hansen has a five-year memorandum of understanding with the city and county on the arena plan.
Hansen issued a statement after the vote was annonced Wednesday, saying he looks forward to hearing back on our agreement to join the Maloofs as Limited Partners in the Kings.
Our day will come...and when it does it will just be that much sweeter for the struggle, he said.

The fourteenth of every February becomes the realm of lace, frills, frocks and champagne. One can daintily pose for slice of red velvet cake, donning forms of ruby-hued accoutrements, and simply muse of their (future) Prince Charming.
However, for me, Valentine's Day translates to Valentino and his courtly confidant, William Shakespeare. It is the Spring/Summer 2012 Ad Campaign, cultivated and brewed by the aesthetically-talented connoisseurs at Valentino, that leaves a lasting impression.
Who isn't enthralled by the antique, royal tones of these photos? The overall story, mood and paraphernalia seems like merely an offspring of Shakespeare's penned works.
Of course, this only makes me excited for a slew of spring/summer trends that are already erupting, thanks to the buffet of models on the runways. Ornate prints, embroided laces, mocha palettes, subtle studding...?
Count me in!
What are you excited for spring/summer?

Has anyone ever bought a TV Extended Warranty online before?
by tvimpaired2266 - 3/7/08 8:37 AM
I know that generally speaking warranties can be overpriced and not worth the money.However, I found a pretty reputable online company that has great prices and they have been in business for over 10 years.They even offer a 130% money back guarantee if the TV is not serviced in a timely manner(they outline the timeframes on the website)...and I was just curious if anyone else has bought a warranty for their TV online or if anyone had checked out this place DTV Express?
If you have heard of them or had any dealings with them,your feedback would be welcome!!!

Do NOT eat at this CCF if you must be gf! My server seemed ticked that I would ask for gf. I am now violently ill.. I know what cross contamination feels like, and this isn't it. I honestly believe I was served non gf pasta, even though the person who brought it out told me it was gf. Lesson learned the hard way. :-(
Very nice gluten free menu - lots of options
been here multiple times. almost inevitably served gluten by accident or given the most tasteless dry chicken and plain rice as my "only option"
I work at a different Cheesecake Factory so this one might be slightly different. However, I see the most horrible things happen with "gluten free food". I came here cause of a friends birthday choice and ate grilled salmon, which I never have a problem with. But stay away from the pasta and salad dressings. I have found pasta in my eggs, and gluten free pasta. The salad dressings get mixed up all the time. Stick with grilled food!!!
Great gluten free menu. pasta was good & tender. would be nice to have more than one cheesecake option but the one they have is very good.
I recently revisited this location (after being turned away a few years ago) and I am sooo glad I did! They have a new multi-page gluten free menu!! Wow! The food was great. I had a burger with a gf bun, seemed like an udis bun, and French fries. Will be back again soon.
I read a lot of bad reviews about gluten items showing in "gluten free" entrees, so I sent an email to the corporate office. I received a call from their representative on September 10, 2013 stating they now have a menu dedicated for those who are gluten free. First let me say that they have a separate area in the kitchen with designated utensils for gluten free items, this will cut down on cross contamination. The representative relayed that they try to prepare gluten free items first. This is a new program, about a week old from this review. My family and I have eaten there two times since my conversation and have been satisfied both times. The only problem would be the noodles at this time, some was too hard while other entrees where too soft. They have gluten free bread, for those who want an actual hamburger/turkey burger/mushroom burger/eggplant burger (yes many choices). Like all restaurants the waiter can make the experience great or just average, which is why I won't deduct my rating for an establishment because of one waitress. They also have desserts that are consumable for those with gluten intolerance/Celiac. Another feature my wife and I like is the fact they state that some items may contain has much as 20ppm. Finally the prices, there is NO added surcharge for wanting gluten free items; the price remains the same, minus the bread that is given complimentary in the beginning of the meal for those who can consume gluten. For those who miss eating Cheesecake Factory I highly recommend revisiting now they are serving gluten free items.
10120 California Street, Omaha, NE 68114
While they don't have a gluten free menu specifically, they do identify what they can prepare gluten free. When I asked the waitress how the gluten free options were prepared her answer was very knowledgable and impeccable. Sure, there is a high degree of trust here. But for the first time in a long time my three year old got to eat a hamburger and dessert at a restaurant. Thank you!!
1201 Lake Woodlands Dr #302, The Woodlands, TX 77380
I got soooo sick after eating here. I was up all night. I haven't been that sick in a long time.
7002 Arundel Mills Circle, Hanover, MD 21076
I'm so excited about discovering the CF offering gluten-free alternatives on their regular menu with a gf icon to include: Shepard's Pie (!), a few different pasta and burgers, sides, various meat entrees, and a couple desserts.
251 Geary Street, San Francisco, CA 94102
They don't have "GF" items - they have items that are on the menu that don't have gluten in them. They make no effort to be GF at all. Its just regular menu items that wouldn't come with gluten anyway.

There's a good selection of GF food from pizza to pasta to a hamburger with a bun!! The Shepard's Pie is awesome!
781 Brandon Town Center Mall, Brandon, FL 33511
Sweet corn tamales are great. Never had a problem. Staff really nice and helpful.
11800 Lake Victoria Gardens, Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33410
Glutened. That is all.

Bacon Burger with GF buns and flower less GF cheesecake excellent
71 Isham Road #20, West Hartford, CT 06107
I loved the GF Menu in Cheese Cake Factory. Server was great and I had no problems with the food I ate. I will keep coming to this restaurant in Frisco TX.
They are amazing. It was my favorite before I could eat gluten and still is. So many options and the cheeseburger with gluten free bun was amazing with gluten free dressing for the salad.
115 Huntington Avenue, Boston, MA 02199
Great options. Wait staff very knowledgeable and went out of their way to be helpful.
4200 Conroy Road, Orlando, FL 32839
BE VERY CAUTIOUS if you're truly Celiac!! Visited from out-of-state. Called ahead on a Friday evening, confirmed with management that GF options could be prepped separately and reduce risk for contamination. Waited an hour for a table, was finally seated. Asked waitress to confirm chef could prepare a SALAD with grilled chicken separately -- kitchen manager told her there was high risk of contamination. A SALAD ? With grilled chicken? Manager came by, was arrogant and condescending stating that any restaurant cannot guarantee anything. No attempt to even reassure that he would have the chef grill the chicken separately or anything. After an hour and half of waiting for dinner, I left and went to California Pizza Kitchen -- which is amazing by the way!
3500 Las Vegas Freeway, Las Vegas, NV 89109
Good Food! Waiter (Adam) very helpful and knowledgeable about how food was prepared. Not a huge selection, but I enjoyed my choice (steak Diane).
789 W Harbor Dr, San Diego, CA 92101
Has a gluten free option menu and Godiva chocolate cheesecake that's GF!
Although there are gluten free options there seems to be a lot of issues with staff knowledge. Fries are marked as gluten free on the menu but they are not cooked in a dedicated fryer. Only two salad dressings are ok and server had to check several times to see what was safe.
71800 California 111, Rancho Mirage, CA 92270
Gluten free cheesecake and great GF menu.
5015 Westheimer Road, Houston, TX 77056
Delicious!! GF notes in menu and staff very attentive to GF needs. Had sweet tamale corn cakes and shepherds pie. The Godiva cheesecake is also amazing, though super rich.
700 Pike Street, Seattle, WA 98109
Excellent service, had tamale cakes, Mexican lettuce wraps, and cheeseburger with fries (shared with family)! So good. Ordered orange juice and was sad it was $4 but it turned out to be fresh squeezed and worth every penny!
1504 Old Country Road, Westbury, NY 11590
Very accommodating and helpful. plus delicious.
7400 San Pedro Avenue, San Antonio, TX 78216
This Cheescake Factory location is not as good as the La Cantera location at doing gluten free, but it may depend on your server. They are usually way, way too crowded and chaotic, especially on weekends. However, the corn cakes are super here and you probably can't go wrong with them! If you do go, you have to insist that they cut the godiva cheesecake with a new knife or else they do use the same one on multiple cheesecakes.
7 Backus Ave, Danbury, CT 06810
I ordered edamame as a starter. Are half way through and then found a spaghetti noodle and ziti noodle mixes in...talk about cross contamination!!! I was sick for days!!!
2301 Kalakaua Ave, Honolulu, HI 96815
They had lots of options! My pasta was really good and the gluten free cheesecake was amazing. I want to eat it every day. The waitress knew what to do and took care of my food well.
3015 Grand Ave, Coconut Grove, FL 33133
The food was very good. There was even a delicious gluten free dessert - Godiva chocolate cheesecake on a flourless chocolate cake crust. Our server was great too. I had no problems afterward, and I am pretty sensitive to cross-contamination.
161 Quakerbridge Mall, Lawrenceville, NJ 08648
Wow - never thought I could eat cheesecake without getting really sick until I tried an amazing chocolate cheesecake from here. My mom got it for me and it was soooo good, and I didn't get sick! I also had the gluten free mac and cheese. It was good, but the pasta was a little undercooked. But I know how finicky gf pasta can be!
2301 Kalakaua Ave, Honolulu, HI 96815
Staff was very knowledgable and attentive to gf protocols and cross contamination. Food very good.
15900 La Cantera Parkway, The Shops at La Cantera Mall, Suite 24100, San Antonio, TX 78256
I had a cheeseburger on a gf bun and it was amazing. The Godiva Chocolate Cheesecake is to die for.
2301 Kalakaua Ave, Honolulu, HI 96815
Menu is very clearly marked with GF options. Had great service. Was shocked that I could get a cheeseburger with bun and fries...all GF!
16134 N 83rd Ave, Peoria, AZ 85382
Gluten free items are listed in the menu with a gf sign but you still have to tell them to prepare it gluten free ... a lot of great options only downside was that there wasn't a lot of gluten free appetizers although the guacamole dip was a good option
1 Walden Galleria, Cheektowaga, NY 14225
Amazing new gluten free menu best burger yet
2402 East Camelback Road, Phoenix, AZ 85016
Waitress, Kayla G was knowledgeable, extremely pleasant and patient. She answered all my questions and recommended what I could safely eat as The Cheesecake Factory does not have a dedicated fryer or grill. They use gluten containing marinades on the grill. I ordered the 1/2 chicken, mashed potatoes and green beans. I did not get sick and will eat there again this week during my vacation. The only reason I gave The Cheesecake Factory 4 stars is because the options are very limited because of cross contamination risk. My visit was very pleasant, the food was very flavorful and the staff was excellent.
250 Granite Street, Braintree, MA 02184
The staff is uneducated, the choices are plain and cross-contamination rampant.
304 Orland Square Drive, Orland Park, IL 60462
We've been here a couple of times. Never been sick. Once though something was on my meal that shouldn't have been.
4701 Wyandotte Street, Kansas City, MO 64112
They boil "steamed broccoli" in the same pot of water that they cook regular pasta and noodles. The manager can't address the problem of it because he has no knowledge about "gluten FREE". My husband found a strip of noodle in his Steamed broccoli that he specificity emphasized on STEAMED but no boiled. When we talked to the manager about it, he told us that they have been served the same kind of steamed broccoli to gluten free customers and it seemed to be no problem at all. He told us to call back the next day if my husband feel sick arrogantly. The worse experience we had with this franchise!
7400 San Pedro Avenue, San Antonio, TX 78216
I've been to other Cheesecake Factory restaurants and this was terrible. We came in towards the end of the night and our waitress didn't know what gluten free meant. I explained it and she said she'd alert the kitchen. I ordered the pasta carbonara as I have done at the other restaurants and it was a huge mistake. I took a bite and the pasta did not seem to taste gluten free and the texture was like regular pasta. She assured me it was gf and I was starving and at it. Before I even left there I was extremely ill. I was sick for almost 2 weeks. I know I should have trusted my instincts. I will not go back to this location as I feel they did not care and were unhappy we came in an hour before closing.
2708 Potomac Mills Cir, Woodbridge, VA 22192
Had a nice gluten free brunch. Not a ton of brunch options but they were friendly and helpful and took gf seriously.
3015 Grand Ave, Coconut Grove, FL 33133
The first time, perfect. They were sweet and understanding and the menu has things clearly marked for gf. I am super sensitive even cross contamination gets me- which is why I rarely go out to eat. The second time however, the waitress was very rude , like I was annoying her. The good was still great however. Hit or miss servers. But good food.
2402 East Camelback Road, Phoenix, AZ 85016
Good sized GF menu, and last time the waitress even had the GF bun toasted and brought out for me as bread to go with my pasta! Only one GF cheesecake, a super rich chocolate one.
3111 West Chandler Boulevard, Chandler, AZ 85226
Decent sized GF menu, the also offer GF buns. I usually get the pasta and haven't tried a burger yet. They offer one GF cheesecake, and it's the Godiva chocolate one, which is too rich for me. I usually get a sundae if I want dessert. Only one time did I have a regular pasta noodle in with my GF pasta, the apologized profusely and comped our meal. Fortunately I did not get sick. I have eaten there since with no problems.
1201 Lake Woodlands Dr #302, The Woodlands, TX 77380
Not large selection but you can request certain items to be made gluten free - they don't have a separate menu just a small symbol near the foods that are - unfortunately only 1 cheesecake is gluten and it's chocolate chocolate and more chocolate
1612 Palisades Center Drive, West Nyack, NY 10994
So far so good. Have eaten here 2x's , knock on wood it's all been fine.
EDIT January 19: Although a few dishes are clearly marked GF, servers seem to be very inconsistently trained on the subject. Fries are supposedly gluten free, but I was told they are only available when there is a clean fryer available. Was also told during my previous visit that the sauce on my burger wasn't safe, but this time I was assured the same sauce was indeed safe. East here at your own risk, because I sure don't trust them. Get your shit straight, Cheesecake Factory. ------------- Hadn't gone here in a while, because they couldn't seem to find me something gluten free off their menu. Well, apparently they've got a new menu with clearly marked GF items and options now! Also, GF hamburger buns and gluten free fries! Americana Cheeseburger A++! Will go again!
7875 Montgomery Rd, Cincinnati, OH 45236
Had a wonderful GF burger. Can't wait to go again.
3811 South Cooper Street, Fort Worth, TX 76104
Gf notated on menu. Waiter seemed willing to make accommodations (asking for pasta to be boiled in separate water) but I don't know if that is normal policy if not requested.
2350 N Mayfair Rd, Wauwatosa, WI 53226
Amazing food as always. They have a good variety of gluten free foods, which I was very thankful for. I ordered a GF cheeseburger and GF fries, which was so good, however I had a bad reaction, I think just from cross contamination. It happens, for it's not celiac certified, so I took my chances. I probably will go there again because I appreciate them trying to accommodate us gluten intolerant! Just be wary if you have celiacs.
5530 Glades Rd, Boca Raton, FL 33431
Cheesecake Factory is the worst gluten free place I have ever been to. They use same pots and pans a water for pasta. They don't know what's gluten they put croutons even in gluten free salads.
789 W Harbor Dr, San Diego, CA 92101
Great gluten free options and cheesecake for dessert
10120 California Street, Omaha, NE 68114
This a great gf place for family or date night. You do need to be on your toes as I've had tiny discrepancies with orders before but overall a great place to eat out. If they make a mistake they bend over backwards to fix it. I am genuinely sad they stopped serving the eggplant glamburger. The tamale appetizer platter is amazing. They recently combined their gf menu with their regular menu. They have a gf Godiva cheesecake.
6223 South State Street #2001, Murray, UT 84107
Had great menu options for gf, server was nice and made sure it was gluten free. My food was brought out separately, which gave me peace of mind. Did not get sick and will thankfully be going back!
53 Woodfield Rd, Schaumburg, IL 60173
large selection of gf options!
2350 N Mayfair Rd, Wauwatosa, WI 53226
Lots of gluten free options including pasta, turkey burgers, hamburgers, chicken and beef entrees. Drawback: soups and appetizers are not gluten free. Only gluten free cheesecake is Godiva Chocolate, luckily my favorite, i am a chocoaholic. I always get great service there. Cross contamination can happen, they do not have a completely gluten free kitchen section.

In the distant future, earthquakes and the effects of global warming have splintered Japanese society. Some struggle hand-to-mouth in the jungle-tangled ruins of civilization. Some live comfortably within the closed-off city of Atlas. Others lurk online, anonymously hacking the global economy. As nature grows more violent and the divide between classes expands, one spirited girl, Kuniko, must face her destiny and lead her people into the utopia of Atlas.
The city's ruthless government isn't going to welcome them with open arms, but Kuniko won't give up until the gates of Atlas are kicked open for good - even if it means discovering that the promised land she dreamed of is built upon a foundation of twisted secrets and lies.
This limited edition includes an artbox designed to hold both parts 1 and 2 of Shangri-La.
