I bought this because I needed a fleece, and the sale could not be beat for my chance at owning a Patagonia. Turquoise is my favorite color, so this fleece caught my eye in particular. When I received it, it fit perfectly! I'm 5'5" and normally wear an XL, but opted for the Large since I don't like bulky fleeces. Glad I went with the Large - perfect for wearing under my Burton Eleanor snowboarding jacket. The combo keeps me extra warm. Plus, this fleece and great as is - it's perfect for cooler days where a heavy coat just won't suffice. I highly recommend this for anyone in the market for a fleece.
Got this for Christmas last year-- super comfy for lounging/running errands/apres, etc... Doesn't cinch at the bottom or cuffs, so can get really bulky under other layers for skiing. The fleece can get pulled kind of easily, so avoid contact with velcro, firewood, and anything catchy
I should know.I am an expert in hamsters.This is a fantastic fleece jacket for those 30-40F days. Very cozy and very soft. The color is also quite lovely. I am 5'8" 150lb and ordered a medium. It fits very well around the torso. The sleeves are a tiny bit too short for my tastes, but only if I stretch, and everything else fits fine so I can deal with it. There are 4 pockets total, one inside, two hand pockets, and one outside chest pocket.
I got the retool hoodie about a year ago and wore it almost every day last winter. After countless times through the washer it still looks brand new. Decided to break down and buy the zip up version on sale and it was definitely well worth it This is by far the best fleece I've ever owned. The fit is great....very slightly fitted but overall super comfy, so don't be put off by the "slim fit" description. I'm 5'10, 155 lbs and got a medium. I was pleasantly surprised that the sleeves were actually long enough for me and the cut isn't too short, it falls just below my hip. Get one while they're still on sale!!! You won't regret it.
This fleece jacket is so soft and warm you won't want to take it off. I keep mine at work for those blustery days in the office, and my coworkers probably think I never change my clothes. The fit is roomy, so you can definitely layer-up underneath. The only reason I can't give this five stars is because I hate the neck! Like I said, it runs on the loose side, but the neck is so tight and stiff that I can never zip it all the way up. Luckily it still keeps me warm, but for the price, it would be great if you could zip it up all the way.

Women's Tennis Makes It Lucky 13 with 9-0 Victory over King
April 8, 2013
MISENHEIMER, N.C. - The historic 2013 women's tennis season continued with another victory on Monday afternoon as Pfeiffer University blanked visiting King 9-0 in Conference Carolinas action at the Knapp Tennis Center.

Seattle's Capitol Hill turned into a street party Tuesday night as voters celebrated the state's tentative approval of gay marriage.
With about half of the expected ballots counted Tuesday night, Referendum 74 was passing with 52 percent of the vote. About 61 percent of the votes have been counted.
That sent crowds of about 1,000 people out onto the street outside the Lobby bar, near Broadway and Pike, where the Referendum 74 party began on Election night.
We're celebrating something that should have been a right for a really long time. And now it finally is, and that's why we're here! said supporter Tara Stewart.
It's just a great celebration of everybody here, loving, caring, regardless of gender, orientation or anything, said supporter Sarah Mansa.
According to King County officials, marriage applications will have to be changed from saying bride and groom to Applicant 1 and Applicant 2.
The state says it plans to certify the election results on December 5. People could begin applying for the new marriage licenses on December 6. The first marriages could happen on December 9.
R-74 asked voters to approve or reject Washington state's new law legalizing same-sex marriage. That law was passed by the Legislature and signed by Gov. Chris Gregoire earlier this year, but it's been on hold pending the election's outcome.
Gregoire spoke to supporters Tuesday night.
We showed the world that love wins out, that families of all types deserve the same rights and protections that are afforded to others, she said.
About $13.6 million was spent on Washington state's campaign, with the bulk of it coming from gay marriage supporters.
Measures allowing same-sex marriage also appear to have passed in Maine and Maryland.

Pukke managed to register their first win of the 2009 Varsity Cup with a 27-15 win over Shimlas in Bloemfontein.
Pukke were in complete control in the first half, but let the home side back in to the match in the second half when Shimlas scored three tries. However, Pukke were able to dig deep and hold out for a well deserved victory.
The students from the North-West dominated the opening exchanges as they set up camp deep in the Shimlas half and scored the first try of the game through winger Randall April who pounced on a loose pass by Shimlas. Scrumhalf Theuns Kotze added the extras and Pukke were out to a 7-0 lead in just the second minute of the game
Pukke, however, struggled to turn possession into try scoring opportunities. Kotze missed two penalty opportunities before Dewan Eckard slotted a nicely taken drop goal.
After a good period of sustained pressure Pukke finally got their second try of the game through centre Jacques de Kock. Kotza added the two points and Pukker lead 17-0 with the first half drawing to a close.
Kotze scored the first points of the second-half when Shimlas were penalised for playing the ball on the ground.
The home side finally got on the board in the 49th minute when winger Wouter Stieger showed a good step and some blistering pace to finish off a well worked try.
The Free State students scored their second try just three minutes later, this time through centre Cameron Jacobs. Once again, though, Neill Jacobs missed the conversion and Pukke still led by 10.
With twenty minutes some great continuity play saw replacement Willem Britz bag the Shimlas third try. Lionel Cronje then took over the kicking duties, but he could only manage to strike the right-hand upright.
Pukke eventually got back to the game plan of the first half and a great turn over was finished in style by Kotze who sold the Shimlas defenders with a beautiful dummy. The scrumhalf picked himself up and slotted the conversion to give his side a 27-15 win.
In the nights other results, defending champions Maties beat UJ 29-14 in Stellenbosch while Tuks maintained their 100% record with a 39-20 victory over NMMU.
Shimlas - Tries: Wouter Stieger, Cameron Jacobs, Willem Britz.
Pukke – Tries: Randall April, Jacques de Kock, Theuns Kotze. Conversions: Kotze (2). Penalties: Kotze. Drop goal: Dewan Eckard

Speier on Toyota

As you probably know, Rep. Jackie Speier (pictured above at a town hall meeting last year in Montara) is pondering a bid for California attorney general after a poll showed her having an advantage over other Democratic candidates, and with the candidate filing period opening Feb. 15, a decision is expected soon.
So which way is she going to go? It's clear she's fed up with Washington and the Senate in particular. Being a junior member of the House at a time of partisan gridlock has been difficult for her, especially when financial reform proposals she's worked hard to pass are being tossed aside in the Senate, where Sen. Chris Dodd is in the process of caving in to Republican demands.
On the other hand, there is still a slim chance to enact historic health care reform legislation as well as contribute to a moment of great importance for Democrats, who have as good a shot as they're going to get to enact significant policies on climate change and other issues. San Mateo County residents need leadership from Washington as far as stimulating the economy and creating jobs. And doesn't every newbie in Washington have to pay his or her dues before rising in influence and seniority?
But Speier, 59, doesn't have unlimited time left in public office. So she has to figure out how best to use that time, and maybe spending five years working her way up the ladder in the House isn't it. And perhaps Capitol Hill really is so "dysfunctional," as she put it, and the Senate is so corrupt and useless, that there's no legitimate hope of winning important legislative battles or making a difference there.
If she runs for attorney general and wins, Speier will be able to spend much more time with her husband and two children — Jackson, 21, and Stephanie, 15. The commute to and from Washington has been a strain for her, newly hired spokesman Nathan Ballard confirmed this week. As attorney general, she'd also be able to focus on many of the consumer protection issues that are so important to her.
The hunch here is that Speier will run for AG. Maybe she'll decide she has unfinished business in Washington. Perhaps her family could talk her into sticking with it, if that's what they feel. But if we had to guess, we'd say her clear distaste for what's going on in D.C., particularly the sausage-making that takes place in the Senate, combined with the need to be closer to her family, will tip the scales in favor of leaving the House and heading back to Sacramento.
UPDATE: Wrong! Speier released a statement today saying she will not run for attorney general.
"I am thankful that so many supporters came forward to urge me to run for statewide office, but after talking it over with my family, I have decided to stay in Congress," Speier said in a statement. "I am convinced it is the right thing to do for my family, and I believe I can best serve my constituents by remaining in Congress and working hard on consumer protection, financial reform, jobs, and health care."
So don't ever listen to us again.

Just received Tom Ford extrême, wear it twice already... I'm a big fan of fragrances, have above 25 different ones.... But this one is the one trust me guys :-) win the day own the night with Tom Ford extrême

Tom Ford Extreme is a very nice cologne, if your in the mood for a leather, tobacco, and deep woods scent. All the notes are blended well together. The dry down is nice and not over powering. This is my first day wearing this scent, I do like it alot.

Wow, this fragrance has a lot of notes going on, but like most Tom Ford fragrances they are blended so well. I've sampled a lot of fragrances since the new year, and Tom Ford Extreme was a definite standout for me! This has true opening, heart, and dry down. You will definitely notice how this scent transforms on your skin. The fig, truffle, patchouli, and woods make up the overall character of this fragrance, and it really has an awesome smokiness that I love and is extremely masculine. For me, this is more of nighttime, special occasion, romantic type of fragrance. It's not something that I would want to wear everyday, it's too unique for that. I also have the original Tom Ford for Men and this is much more complex. My favorite Tom Ford

Older driver safety
Most older drivers obey the speed limit and wear their seat belts. But they are expected to become a bigger part of the traffic crash picture in the next couple of decades.
In the U.S., highway deaths for motorists under 65 have dropped in recent years, but for those over 65, traffic fatalities are expected to increase sharply nationwide.
Fortunately, in Wisconsin, we have not yet seen an increase in fatalities among drivers over the age of 65 in recent years.
But the fact remains, the nation is aging quickly.
- By 2030 one out of every five Americans will be over 65 years of age, and most of them will probably be licensed to drive.
- The number of drivers older than 65 will more than double to 60 million during the next three decades as baby boomers move into retirement.
As a group, older drivers are some of the country's safest drivers. Fewer speed or drive after drinking alcohol than at any other age.
- But compared to young and middle-age adults, people over 70 are more likely to be involved in a crash while driving and more likely to die in that crash.

"Pit Bull." There is no other breed of dog—or arguably, any other animal at all—whose mere mention can elicit such strong opinions. Try a word-associate game with your friends: Ask them what they think of when you say "Pit Bull." Chances are that by the numbers, their responses will be more negative than positive. And it's no wonder: No other type of dog is as widely banned from housing, legislated against, or incorrectly vilified by the media.
How did we get here?
Pit Bulls were once widely considered ideal family pets—affectionate, loyal and gentle with children. But in recent years, these dogs have suffered tremendously from a combination of overbreeding, bad publicity and irresponsible owners. In reality, the overwhelming majority of Pits and Pit mixes are sweet goofballs who have gotten a very bad rap.
Learn the truth.
National Pit Bull Awareness Day, on October 27, is a day of appreciation and education designed to change perceptions and stereotypes about Pit Bulls and their responsible owners. Please take a moment to learn the truth about these wonderful dogs and consider rescuing one of them from a shelter.
Are you a proud Pit Bull parent? Please participate in National Pit Bull Awareness Day, and help us dispel the myths about these dogs by leaving a comment below about your wonderful pooch.
I am a very proud momma of 2 amazing Pit Bulls. Titus is an American Pit Bull/American Staffordshire Terrier (1/4) mix, red and white. he will be 3 in december and is the sweetest most loving and scaredey dog I have ever known. Hes a great "guard alert" dog, but all he will do is stand right in front of you and bark. If you put your hand out he will bark and give it kisses. He loves to swim, and play chase and football, and sometimes frisbee. He is AKC Canine Good Citizen certified.
Apollo is 100% American Blue nose Pit. He is 1 year old and almost bigger than Titus and certainly has way more muscle. He is a total mess who loves to sleep and waller on his back. He affectionately flee nibbles to say hello. Once we put him through a little more training we plan on getting his CGC also, but hes still a WHOLE lot of puppy!
Both of my boys LOVE the dog park, meeting new dogs and people and love all 4 cats that live in our house. I am hopelessly in love with my sweet babies and wouldnt ever have another type of dog...ok well I really want a Dane...but having them makes it hard not to want more.
I rescued Sydnee March 17, 2006 from a local "kill shelter." I was there to pull 2 other pooches that I knew I could find homes for once I took them to the vet and had whatever medical attention they needed taken care of. Well, I saw Sydnee crouching in the corner of the kennel, her coat was dull, she was so depressed, scared and underweight so I grabbed her along with the other 2 dogs and off we went to the vet. She was so excited she practically flew into my SUV. Long story short, I discovered the first week that Sydnee had a raging yeast infection throughout her entire body which took me 9 months to cure using holistic methods, she also had a tongue that was too long for her mouth so it rolled up, she couldn't eat kibble easily so I every meal was freshly prepared with brown rice and chicken and veggies, she packed on the weight and her coat was so shiny and beautiful. And of course she loved her treats! Sydnee did not like a lot activity or noise around her so I kept my home quiet, it took her 30 days before she felt comfortable being in the house so I know she was never allowed in a house before she came to me, cats made her terribly nervous but she finally gave in because my cats loved her and liked to curl up with her. I had the pleasure of having Sydnee in my life for 5 years before she passed away from congestive heart failure. Once she knew she was safe and loved which took about 30 days, she showed me every day with a big silly smile and a "high five" how happy she was to be in a home that showed her love 24/7. She was a very, very, very happy girl and she loved people and they all loved her. Everyone would commend on how "sweet" she was. She and my Black Lab/Chow mix, Lexi, were inseparabale, they did everything together and we both miss our Sydnee girl very much. She brought so much joy and love into my house. She isn't the first dog I have ever rescued and won't be the last. I recommend a bully breed to anyone, they are so loving, gentle and good natured. R.I.P. my little girl :-)
My red and white pit and pit mix are angels. The cats sleep on top of them! They might be a danger to frogs or rabbits if they could catch them, which they can't. They can live in an apartment because they almost never bark. The purebred boy would rather die than be naughty. It humiliates him to displease me. Our girl is rather short and fat (1/4 beagle is our current theory) and she is a little naughty sometimes! She was rescued at 11 months, having had a litter already, from a horrible rural kill shelter. Our boy was rescued at 3 years old from the city pound. It isn't how you raise them, because we didn't! It's how they are!
Our Pitty is a very smart goofy guy. We adopted him 2 years ago from our local humane society. He is supper smart and learns new tricks very fast as long as you have food in your hand. He plays with our kitty at home and loves car rides. He is sometimes really naughty and for 2 years, he chewed 3 pairs of my shoes and 3 remote controls. His favorite food is banana and will do anything to get the sweet treat. He doesn't have any mean bone in his body. He's our baby and he is a pit bull!
I am the proud parent of 2 wonderful pitbulls. I have my baby Kabela she is a 7 year old red american gatormouth pit we rescued her off the side of the road in Dallas 4 yrs ago she is so sweet and playful. She had been abused and bred many times she was very malnourished and heartworm positive. Now she is healthy and beautiful she spends her days with her sisters sun bathing playing ball running around and loves her walks. She is a snuggler and loves to sleep between me and my husband and loves all people. I also have my baby Kahlua she is a 5 year old black and white american staffordshire/bull terrier mix she is a charecter lots of personality. We got her from a litter she was the last one that nobody wanted because she was the runt and not a purebred she looks like the Target dog half black and white face with the black ring around the eye so adorable and unique. She loves to play ball swim in her pool run around with her sisters and loves her walks. She is our shadow and everywhere we are loves to snuggle and sleep with us as well loves all people. They are the best dogs and the most loving affectionate breed they are our protectors great guard dogs only when necessary. I am positive we will have many more to come and me and my husband plan to have our own pitbull sanctuary when we get property with acreage later on so we can give all the unwanted and unfortunate ones that need love and nuturing a home:)
I am the proud owner of wonderful pity. This is my second one, my first one Duke passed away at 15 years old. He was my baby. Pit bulls love to be cuddle they are very loyal and very funny. I rescued my second one his name is Mako, he came with that name, even though he had a missarable life he kept his spirit . He is so loving. It brakes my heart to see how much people abuse this breed. Love conquer everything and everyone. We humans need the nurturing and love to grow up and become decent humans been there is not difference among animals.

I rescued my second one his name is Mako, he came with that name, even though he had a missarable life he kept his spirit . He is so loving. It brakes my heart to see how much people abuse this breed. Love conquer everything and everyone. We humans need the nurturing and love to grow up and become decent humans been there is not difference among animals.
I've always been a fan of bully breeds, but 8 weeks ago I took in my first Pit as a foster... and what a treat! He is a total marshmallow! He loves to play, sleep on his back, and is so curious about everything! He loves to play with and in water. He is great with people and dogs, even in large crowds. He has a wonderfully generous personality, and is always a clown! He and my Mastiff mix are Gilligan and The Skipper!!! Love the bully breeds... wouldn't be without them!
I rescued a female Pitbull about 4 years ago. I now consider her my best friend. She will sit on my couch next to my chair and watch television with me. Also she sits in the passenger seat of my car while I drive and appears to be a small human, she will reach over with her paw and hold my hand. She is a amazing animal that I have grown to love and respect. She is also a big show off who loves to entertain.
I have a beautiful 5-year-old brindle Pit Bull Terrier named Trina. I love my baby more than anything and have such a sweet bond with her; she's my family. She came into my life after I rescued her when she was 1 1/2, and it's almost like she's aware that I saved her. Trina is the sweetest, smartest girl ever. She loves other dogs, can't get enough of people, and could just go swimming for days. Really quick learner, gentle with kids, I could go on forever. It makes me sick to think of how horribly mistreated and misunderstood these innocent creatures are. :( They don't want to fight, and I seriously doubt they have one mean bone in their bodies. After all, Trina lived the first 1 1/2 of her life with neglectful crackheads that kept her chained up in the backyard, barely interacted with her, and when they did, it was rarely pleasant. But she still turned out like a completely normal dog. All these guys want is a little love. And maybe a meaty bone or two.

According to my girlfriend, these pants are super comfortable. She wears them all the time so I believe her. They're also quite durable, she wears them to do everything in; rock climb, run, laze around the house.
Ok, I'm destructive towards clothes, but usually this isn't an issue until after I start WEARING them.I got these in the mail, tried them on & liked them. They are v supportive (high waist and fitted shape) & are butt beautifying wonders. Could be long on others, but I'm 5'9". I cut off the tag, happy with my purchase.Stretching the next day before my yoga class, I see string. Seams on the crotch of my new pants are loose! WTF. When I spend $80 on a pair of pants, I expect them to last. I'm willing to return them for a new pair and hopefully Moosejaw will let me exchange them without the tag. So far I'm disappointed and apprehensive to buy online again, thanks to this poor craftsmanship.
higher rise pant (inch below belly button) with thick supportive material. I'm 5'1" 36C 128 lbs and got a large (medium would have been too tight in crotch). Better support than the isis pant. Of course I had to hem them...like every other pant I get.
I love the fit on my tush. Has a little higher rise so it makes a nice silhouette for your tummy, which is nice since mine is not rock hard. They are also super long which is no big deal, since I can hem them. My caveat is that they attract lint & hair ALOT. I have 2 small dogs- 8 & 11 lbs, & they don't shed very much, & I ended up being covered in hair & lint by the time I walked down my stairs. I would love to see theses a color other than black- preferably like a heather to hide the hair. Lol, or make them less statically charged. That would be great too.
Guess what - THEY'RE LONG AND SLIMMING. Exceptionally durable, but not so heavy that I overheat. I'm 5'11'', 140 pounds and I bought the large, because the mediums were a little tight through the crotch/butt for me. The large is still very fitted, and honestly, they're long. The larges probably boast a 35" inseam. I love the higher rise, so that when I stretch out, and bend over, I'm protected. (The waist seams are very smooth, though. No bunching, or weird lines through tank tops.) I'll confess, too, that I first saw them at Moosejaw, shopped around for price, and then PURCHASED from Moosejaw because they can't be beat!
I have this product in grey. I loved it so much I bought another! I like the fabric...thick, stretchy and form fitting! However, I am 5'6" and the pants are a bit long for me. But, not long enough from stopping me to buy another pair.
These are great pants. I'm 5'5" and 110 lbs. and I have them in blackberry in small. The color is fantastic! - I love prAna's color selection. But these babes are LONG! They drag about 1.5-2 inches, and when I climb in them I roll them up, and I avoid doing yoga in them. If you're of one us (who's petite - not SHORT, thank you very much) I would stick with prAna's awesome capri collection. I just decided I'm going to hem these pups when I get home. I'm excited now.
I am a student, and I spend long hours sitting. I need comfortable pants that don't make me look homeless, give my tushy a lift, and whose waistband will fit and feel great at 8 am and 11 pm. These are those pants. I carry a wee bit o junk in the trunk, and these pants give a nice rounded hip and are flattering on the hip, thigh, and butt, emphasizing curves without giving any sort of muffin top. The length is long, but they hem easily. They are lightweight and the fabric is very fluid and wicks moisture quite well. All in all, I would absolutely recommend these pants for working out, loungewear, and exercising. Great overall pant.

1. This look works best on day-old waves. Spritz them with a bit of spray gel and use your hands to scrunch them and add some volume.
2. Don't brush or comb through them at all, since you're going for the straggly bedhead look.
3. Then apply some styling wax to your fingers and piece out the ends for the finished touch.

Donating blood benefits you, too
UPDATED 3:14 PM EST Jan 04, 2013
While most people donate blood to help others who need it, there are also some health benefits to the donor as well.
When you donate blood a short physical is done on each donor.
To ensure you are in good health your blood pressure, pulse and temperature are taken. A small hemoglobin sample is also taken. This will alert you to any potential problems with your vitals.

Weiner adds, "Assuming a homeowner can reduce energy use for space heating by 10 – 25% by sealing ductwork, the average homeowner could save $40 - $100 per year." It's important to note that sealing ductwork not only saves energy during the heating season; if you use central AC, it will save you money during the cooling season, too. And thanks to the improved performance of the system, sealed ducts help reduce the workload on your (expensive) heating and cooling plants—that is, your furnace and AC unit. While this isn't really a measurable factor, it's worth noting that any mechanical equipment tends to last longer and require less maintenance when it's working efficiently.
If you really want to know how much sealing your ducts will save, you can have your duct system tested by a home energy auditor or HVAC pro with special pressurizing equipment. Similar to a blower door test, duct testing equipment uses a fan to pressurize the duct network and detects leakage by how much air flow is present. By doing the test before and after you seal your ducts, an operator can calculate how much energy, and therefore money, you'll save in an average year.

GREENVILLE — Jacksonville's tennis team didn't slow down Thursday.
The Cardinals sent one singles player and two doubles teams to next week's individual regional round following their performances in the Coastal 3-A Conference tournament at River Burch Tennis Center.
Jacksonville's Stephanie Wangerin advanced to the NCHSAA East Regional championships in singles play while the doubles teams of Morgan Redick and Kate Reeves, and Chloe Brown and Brianna Carberry also qualified.
The regionals will be played Oct. 19 at Barton College.
"It would have been awesome to have all six girls travel to the regionals, but if someone would have told me 5 of 6 girls would qualify, I would have definitely been shocked," Jacksonville coach David Fleischer said. "It's really unheard of."
The conference tournament was held to determine regional qualifiers. The top four singles players and top four doubles teams advance. Once qualifiers were named, the tournament didn't continue.
Wangerin opened with a 6-0, 6-0 win over White Oak's Courtney Myers before defeating West Carteret's Mallory Munden 6-0, 6-0.
As the top doubles team, the Redick/Reeves pair earned a first-round bye before defeating their opponents from South Central 6-0, 6-4. The fifth-seeded Brown/Carberry team opened with a 6-3, 6-1 win over their foes from South Central before defeating their opponents from Washington 6-3, 6-2.
White Oak's doubles team of Tia Decker and Sarah Hambright also advanced to regionals. They didn't play Thursday since they were the top seed and already qualified.
"I told them (players) that they were the top dogs and that they have proven all season that they were the best in the conference," said Fleischer, who lead his team to the conference title. "We expected them to move on and they did that."
Jacksonville will host Southern Lee in the first round of the NCHSAA 3-A dual team playoffs Tuesday at 4 p.m. Southern Lee is the second seed from the Cape Fear Valley Conference.
Jacksonville 6, Havelock 2: Defender Blake Heatherly recorded 3 goals and an assist to lead Jacksonville to a Coastal 3-A Conference win at Havelock.

It will be interesting to see just what Santa's Elf Chandler sends us for holiday wear. I was especially happy that the launch coincided with my $12 discount and free shipping.
Thread: Chandler Burr Untitled S01E06
We are off and running again !
Looks like Chandler has chosen to keep his impressions to a minimum this time, which is a fair strategy I think.
Will this fragrance have the punch to stand up to winter's cold, even though it's apparently good for summer as well ?
"Rich" he says, so perhaps it will.
It will be interesting to see just what Santa's Elf Chandler sends us for holiday wear. I was especially happy that the launch coincided with my $12 discount and free shipping.
I have to give the Untitled Series (and all the conversation around it) credit for reigniting my interest in trying new perfumes. During the break, I ordered about 20 samples to try.
Glad to hear that 06 is rich -- as opposed to spineless as before -- and I will be following the discussion with interest. I realize that "rich" for me and him can be different, though!
Can I get a summary of the first five? Is there a thread or website with that information?
I wish I could join but I doubt even if I asked someone to buy it for me, it would get here in time with all the X-mas fever. Looking forward to the discussion and the reveal though.

Out of the young(er) noses going rich I think of Daniel Maurel, Cecile Zarokian and Karine Vichon-Spehner, but CB kept saying "he". We'll see, as soon as you guys start telling what you smell.
Who knows - perhaps it will have some real teeth!
*gasps / faints / snores*
Half of me would love it, but half would prefer Chandler to treat Josh as an Amazonian native, to be studied with care and respect, but never to be disturbed by those of us living in Aquatica and Fleuyrup.
I'm in and am looking forward to what Chandler has in store for us.
I heartily approve of the much condensed description. It will be interesting to see how our discussion is different without so much verbal packaging.

Is anyone receiving anything yet? Please post your sniffing experiences, OK?
I just checked my delivery status, and UPS says my bottle will arrive on Saturday, 12/15.
- - - Updated - - -
Well UPS was wrong - my S01E06 arrived today! I was already well-scented with Chanel Coco, so I can't get a complete take on it yet, but my initial impression is orange and musk. I absolutely agree with Chandler's description that it emanates light. Anyone hoping to get down and dirty is going to be disappointed; this is a well-mannered fragrance (unless musk is your idea of raunchy). I'm not picking up on the "rich" aspect yet, but as I said I can't do more than a quick sniff against the backdrop of Coco. More impressions tomorrow.
I have been playing since S01E02 and avidly lurking here to find out what others are thinking. Got S01E06 today. I'm smelling pineapple and coconut. Anyone else get their bottle today?
I'm not playing this round, but I look forward to hearing everyone's impressions.
The question that women casually shopping for perfume ask more than any other is this: "What scent drives men wild?" After years of intense research, we know the definitive answer. It is bacon. Now, on to the far more interesting subject of perfume.
― Tania Sanchez, Perfumes: The Guide
I don't smell anything that overtly smells like pineapple and coconut, but I might be missing that. There is something warm and tangy in S01E06, but I'm having trouble teasing out individual notes. I'm disappointed in the longevity/sillage. The scent seems to smell different up-close than at a distance. That's not to say I don't like it - I do. It felt very cheery on a cold and wet December Saturday.
I got my bottle and wore it today. Not smelling any coconut or pineapple either. It is very similar to several scents that I have, so as you can guess, I like this one a lot. I detect several components, but I'm going to think about it before I shoot off my mouth about what I think is in it. I already thought it was three different fragrances, only to realize that it's probably not any of them. This may be new in my wardrobe. If it is one of the ones I was thinking, then there's been a reformulation.
This is, IMO, a more substantial scent. No knuckles are dragging, and no little black dresses are slinking, but it's more earthy and full-bodied than the previous five, so bravo for that.
I will enjoy wearing this!
PS - I finally saw the Art of Scent exhibit! It's great!
What grounds them oranges in 06, besides musk? Woods, roots, fuzziness, animalic warmth?
Let's take oranges that everybody knows -- Terre d'Hermes -- and compare them to 06. Any resemblance? Or, take another Orange Hermes -- any, basically -- Orange Vert or Merveilles in any form -- and please compare them with 06.
How is the throw? Does 06 last at all?

Here's what Chandler said:
I'm going to use ROT13 to remove the antichandlerian spoilers (a.k.a. "notes").Our holiday Untitled Series S01E06 is just perfect. There is a quality to it that's very holidays. Its beauty is very rich, and it emanates light, embraces you and holds you. I think it is the most perfect holiday scent although it can be worn all year round and in the summer. It is the creation from a young perfumer who is one of the most talented, innovative and creative olfactory artists out there. His work is terrific - it is one of the most solidly structured, overtly luxurious, beautiful works of olfactory art I know.
The first thing I noticed is that this is definitely a irgvire fragrance. The rich beauty and the embracing/holding quality seem to come from a combination of irgvire and gbaxn. In fact, I almost thought that this was the well-known favorite, Irgvire Gbaxn. I verified that it is not. But it's definitely earthy and smoky and warm, in the same way. It is also similar to other irgvire fragrances in my collection.
I agree that it can be worn year-round, but it is particularly nice right now.
I agree that it is solidly structured, in that the notes blend together very nicely and lose their individual form. If I sniff it up close on skin, it just keeps going and going and going. Very warm and toasty. I would say that it's masculine, for sure.
I don't get a lot of benatr per se. I do get some. Definitely not as much as in Greer qUrezrf. I do get zhfx in the drydown, and even in the opening, when it warms up the irgvire and gbaxn/inavyyn.
In some ways, as it dries down, it passes through a toasty gourmandish phase - roasted chestnuts? It leaves an excellent skin scent as well.
Because of the similarities to the highly respected Irgvire Gbaxn, but being in some ways even better, I have to concur with Chandler that this is a great fragrance and that the young perfumer must be a bit of a rock star!
Great description, EAC (ROT13)! Could you please compare it with Lalique Encre Noire Men then? Any similarities besides that fuzzy rooty note? Knowing CB, I realize it is all not that simple, with chestnuts roasting and other million peculiarities.
Overall, we are getting some sort of (sweet) citrus on top, masculine wood and roots in the development, and fuzzy warm enveloping almost vanillic but not sweet drydown, right?
Anything from PG that comes to mind?
Also, how about Francis Camail for Bond No.9 (also known for sweet and not so sweet citruses for Annick Goutal)?
And then again, there is always Ralph Schwieger (not only for Hermes with Merveilles).

He is rather fitting, I agree. Obfdhr is too happy, too light, too crisp, too colognesque. Ask SoS, he should know for certain.
What color is the liquid in 06?
Last edited by Twolf; 20th December 2012 at 08:10 PM.
Does this help?
Your overall description is very good!
Not totally sure about your two suggestions, there, but could be.
Judging by the color only Obfdhr is the right color (picture on the F-site). However, the descriptions everywhere make me think of more green grass and then sweetness. Some reviewers note great longevity too. Nobody ever remarks about the daffodil element in it. How do you guys feel about the floralcy of 06?
Thank you to RN for your offer to send me a little drop for a sniff.
And to which fragrance family do you think it belongs (citrus, fougere, chypre, oriental)?

THE thread for all newbies DIY fragrance
I think there could definitely be saffron + citrus in this, which I could be interpreting as orange when it is some other citrus. But if there is any daffodil, I'm not finding it. The fragrance doesn't strike me as floral.
Also, I have a mild dislike for gbaxn, so unless the perfumer used it so skillfully it was disguised, I think the warmth in the base is due to other notes. I agree that irgvire plays a big role in the fragrance, but by the time it dries down and warms up on my skin, its the warmer notes that I notice.
I have to say again this is a wonderful fragrance, and I continue to be grateful to Chandler for bringing these scents to my attention. This was forcefully demonstrated to me by a sample I received yesterday (that will remain nameless) that was so terrible it made me wish I was anosmic. There are definitely some ham-handed perfumers out there.
Does the new day bring any new developments with 06?
OK, now that we are speaking about the genre, do you think it is marketed for women or men? I would also like to hear some asnwers to Irina's fragrance family question.
Any imagery/associations evoked by it?
I tend to think of it as a citric irgvire fragrance - I hesitate to call it oriental, because it's not spicy, but it is warm, and to a degree that might even deserve the term "ambery". Without being an amber fragrance, if that makes sense.
I think this feels very unisex, but I could see it being marketed to either gender or neither. The fact that is seemed like Gbz Sbeq Terl Irgvire at first says masculine, but the similarity to Irgvire Gbaxn would mean unisex. And the overall vibe is like a more feminine version of Raper Abver (of which I have not smelled the feminine flanker, and which this could be). More masculine than Irgvire Cbhe Ryyr, too.
I'm also thinking this may have a lot of pnfuzrena in it. In fact, that's the image I associate with it, and why it's so perfect for the holidays. It's like the warmest pnfuzrer scarf or sweater one can imagine. It's not Pnfuzrer Zvfg - it's much less upscale and restrained. More like Pnfuzrer Ninynapur, an imaginary fragrance created by perfuming snowboard chicks!
There is a toasty element in it that almost reminds me of Wrhk qr Crnh, but it's much less - just a strong facet, not a predominant theme.
I'm going to recommend that people buy a bottle of this sucker!
Actually I was referring to Michael Edwars fragrance wheel: http://www.fragrancesoftheworld.com/fragrancewheel.aspx
E06 sounds like a woody oriental?
Also as the 30 ml offered on Open Sky is priced at $50 we're looking at a niche fragrance priced at least $180 a 100 ml bottle right?
I was re-reading Gilbert's 'What the nose knows' and realized what a huge bias these blind sniffs carry within them with a huge placebo effect because of the shared imagery, notes and such, it's impossible for the brain to not play that 'pattern recognition' cognitive game filling in the gaps and leading us by the nose

Is is anything like Znunenavu?
I have Znunenavu, and S01E06 is nothing like it IMO.
Definitely NOT Raper Abver pour femme, which is a light and sort of non-descript white floral with very little irgvire if any at all.If we are, however, looking for a lighter version of Raper Abver, a few reviewers on the F-site point towards Ybrgr 7.
Speaking of numbers: somehow I am thinking more of CT07 Tenaq Fvrpyr (of course the nose behind it is almost 15 years younger than CB, but who is counting?).

Thank you, RN (Neil), for your generosity in sending me a sample of this to sniff. I'm glad I had the opportunity, even though I'm afraid my comments are going to be a bit of a rant . . .
My first impression was simply, "Is Chandler having a laugh at our expense?" I understand that there are many perfumes he obviously can't throw our way, but is contemporary perfumery so bereft of ideas and creativity, that this is all he can come up with?
Upfront, I get a huge blast of grapefruit, followed by the rest of the lunchroom can of fruit cocktail, followed by something vaguely floral, followed by . . . dead air. Both times I applied this, it went from 110 mph to nothingness in about 10 minutes. Its over all impression is of something created as the ne plus ultra of a by-the-numbers blueprint of how to construct a fruity floral. Not that I necessarily mind the genre--Calyx for one is brilliant. But this ain't no Calyx.
In fact, I'm struggling to figure out what, exactly, it is. Once again, I find myself in an Emperor's New Clothes position, struggling to come up with the "there" there.

Not again, darn it! Will check my mailbox today, will let you know, OK?
Fortunately, I have to say that Burr's *individual artistic* appreciation and his *art historical* appreciation are clearly two different things. The only line you could possibly draw through the scents in the Art of Scent exhibit, would be the curve of greatest and earliest advance of the art. The scents in the exhibit are truly myriad in their diversity, and are clearly not selected according to Burr's likes or dislikes.
Got my sample today. Totally agree with RNP that this is what Encre Noir pour Femme should have been smelling like, not what they got us.
Right off top of the bat: designer, not niche. Or, weird niche with no projection and 1 hour longevity (remember everything lasts on me). Initial blast (timid one, pastel watercolor) made me think masculine, the development is sort of unisex.
Notewise, I got NO oranges at all, it is a bitter citrus (bergamot would be my best bet) and some aldehydes. In combination, they produce that fizzy tickling sensation at the start. Then there is sweet green vetiver, a little bit of plain jasmine (sambac, not grandiflorum), and something sweet and creamy -- almost like gardenia. What some of the sniffers perceive as fruit is, in fact, something vegetal -- I will not be surprised if it were listed as "celery seed" or an herb (tarragon?) or something else in this venue. Dries down in one hour, to musk and that sweet nothing with higher-pitched cedar. Among the existing fragrances, I would say Caleche Delicate Triple Legere (it does not exist of course) with added vetiver would come close. No, not Pierre, not his style. Not JC Ellena -- not his expressive means.
Overall, happy cheery light scent, spring-like rather than Christmas, positive but lacking energy to deliver. More like a blueprint, etude, not the finished product. Will not go out of the way to wear it on a regular basis.
Will think some more on it, OK?
When do they reveal? End of the month? What are our suggestions besides the ones suggested?
Great observations! Totally with you on almost everything - except that I'm lucky to get some skin scent longevity out of the deal.
The reveal is normally the last day of the month/first day of the next month - depends on the day of the week and Chandler's personal schedule, as well as logistics if he's doing a video, too.
I'm no longer concerned with what it is - just what it is that I like (or don't like) about it. I may try to do one last post about that, before the reveal.
PMed you with a few ideas.
Guys, what about the art & emotional response with this one?

THE thread for all newbies DIY fragrance
Heh, I'm not concerned about what it is, either, because it smells to my nose like so much of what is currently being produced. I'd love to smell something vegetal in this--but after four applications, all my nose gets is fruit cocktail, book-ended by a sharp grapefruit note to start and some woods to finish. Its not offensive, and in fact it seems over all rather well made, but it's just not all that interesting.
What IS interesting to me, however, is what it says about Burr's particular taste--and its consistency.
Emotional response: Disinterest
Art work analogy: Modern, blends into any decor. http://www.wallartdecorstore.com/art/sleek/
Emotional response: noisy youngsters in the park ready to go on a few rides. Happy, chewing gum, eating junk food. Rides are noisier though. Some of them are even scary, but the fragrance is about the youths, not the heavy machinery.
I was also thinking that the wood we thought was cedar, got that slightly unpleasant undertone, not synthetic, but in addition to cedarwood it might be rosewood.
I feel like we're stuck in a very particular room in a very particular wing of a museum and we're being made to look at every single work in a very particular genre. Everything is very clean and all the decor is white and gray and sleek. There's no risk of offense in any of the art. I feel bored and antsy.
I really want something that shows some risk. Something that people might not like. Something where my immediate response isn't "yes, yes. quite nice. smells like the last 5 but a little different."
I feel like I understood and learned to appreciate a lightness and airy-ness after the very first release and I wish we could move on and bump up the diversity.
Then again, maybe this is what *s01* is and when the time comes for *s02* we'll change gears.
I'll probably get the next bottle as well, but if that's just another light, slightly this, slightly that scent... I'm out.
I just returned from my holiday travels to find Neil's kind sample. Again, I've tried not to read people's impressions, so I hope you all will be OK with this being a naive response.
This is my second wearing, and after 5 spritzes on the back of my hand (3 did not last long enough when I tried it yesterday), my first response was......yet another Chandler frag. Slim, elegant, refined, and nothing particularly exciting or challenging about it. I can see both men and women wearing it, but it's another one of those things a person might wear if they weren't interested in leaving any particular kind of an impression.
Not to say that it's not relaxing, because I do think it is. And from the emotional impression standpoint, I do get a mental picture of languid mid-morning on a warm spring day. Which is a nice enough picture I'll admit.
But if I am going to wear something for myself, rather than to make an impression on others, I suspect that even on such a morning I'd want something that's a little more foreword and with some ongoing projection. Something that brings me back to smelling my wrist as time passes, rather than something so non-intrusive that I'd find myself quickly forgetting that I was even wearing it. Which I'll shamefully admit was what happened when I wore it yesterday.
I know Chandler said this one was "rich", and perhaps it does have a little more breadth to it than some of the previous ones, but it's still got a very long way to go before it approaches the richness of the things that I tend to apply that label to.
Call my nose coarse and crude, and you may be right, but it really does surprise me that after six of these editions, we still seem to be stuck in the same esthetic chapter.
I don't mean to be getting down on this fragrance, because it is pleasant in a....pleasant sort of way, and I do believe I would be giving it a lot more chances, if only my first impression had not been "Oh, another one of those."
- - - Updated - - -
OK, after reading some of the comments, I'm back.
In response to which, if I remember correctly, he got kind of defensive and said "No no no !".
But if that's *not* what he is trying to tell us......what exactly is he trying to tell us ?
I keep hoping the message will be something wider in scope than "I'm Chandler, and this is the particular style of things that I personally like."

OK - maybe that would be a bit much. But I honestly feel like we're comparing skyscrapers, and it's hard to work up tears on number 6. They're all big, beautiful, sleek, and very commercial. Commissioned by rich people. If we passed an adobe home, or even better an "Occupy Perfume" encampment, my
eyesnose would be wandering, sister!
It's not that these aren't great works of art/design - I honestly feel that they are. But the approach isn't so much diversity as repetition.
One thing that Birdboy and PPM said that I agree with is that maybe this is showing us a single concept - a certain sort of sleekness and olfactory simplicity and continuity. Maybe it's a certain style of modern olfactory art. THAT I can buy. And that IS something which I feel is the core competence of "high-industry" fragrance, and less common in the more "artisanal" stuff.
On the other hand, maybe that other stuff just doesn't feel compelling to Chandler. It's his show - if he thinks it's unworthy, so be it.
I don't know. Maybe it's just the holidays messing with us.

I don't know Red; perhaps his intention actually is to educate people about this one narrow segment of perfume, but if that's his mission, why doesn't he just come out and say so ?
Sometimes I think somebody needs to sneak up behind him, throw a bag over his head, and as with the old chloroform-on-a-rag thing, make him sniff some Lutens !
Just kidding of course, but it's almost as though he doesn't recognize the existence of such things, and if there happen to be people who are uneducated about perfume who have joined the project with the hope of being presented with a good cross-section of what exists within the world of perfumery, it worries me that they are being kept in the dark about the many exciting stylistic approaches that make perfume so interesting.
Whatever the intent of the choices, Chandler has most certainly succeeded in getting people to talk about perfume!
I do think that the choices have been advantageous in terms of getting us to move our focus off of the "notes" themselves, and onto the melody and harmony. He seems to have chosen things which don't have too much complexity in terms of details, and which show off their larger structure more easily. Perhaps he tried to keep things simple? That would also explain why he hasn't exactly gone out of his way to explain the reason behind the choices. People generally don't like being told that they're working on the "elementary" track!
Yes, Burr is applying his own aesthetic to the selection of scents not only for the Untitled Series but also for the Art of Scent Exhibit. Did you expect anything else?! If you missed it, we spent the month of October (S01E05) delving into relationships between existing art movements and olfactory art. A person has the responsibility for "curating" collections. Certain pieces are excluded, deemed not to fit the collection. That doesn't mean they're bad, it just means they're not right for this particular aesthetic. For example, have you ever created a station on Pandora? You start out with a concept: e.g. Van Morrison Radio. Pandora then suggests songs by other artists that it considers stylistically similar. But in this case, its grouping The Rolling Stones with Van Morrison, and while I love the Stones, I don't want to hear them as part of my "Van Morrison Radio station". So I give them the "thumbs down" every time one is suggested, in order to fine-tune the criteria for my station. If you can't see the frame I'm applying to my selections, you don't know why I'm including Otis Redding and excluding The Rolling Stones. I'm guessing that for some reason Burr doesn't feel Lutens scents fit the Untitled Series aesthetic, but we don't know that for certain. He could choose Jeux de Peau as his next Untitled!
Maybe Burr could be doing more to explain his frame of reference, but I think people as enthusiastic about fragrance as we are should at least give him the benefit of the doubt and try to understand what he's doing. I haven't come anywhere near understanding or internalizing his frame/model/aesthetic, but I was hoping some of the other people playing along on the Untitled Series would have insights that I'd learn from. I think this is what Burr intended for both of his projects -- to get people thinking differently about scent, to propose the association of scent characteristics with existing art movements. I think its an interesting and worthwhile endeavor, if you're ready to go beyond simple categorization by notes and fragrance families. And think how it might influence olfactory artists to translate a concept from one realm into new scents!
He gave us Eau de Lierre as the Literalist, Photo-Realistic exhibit. The Art of Scent Exhibit give us twelve more examples of his classifications:
01 Romanticism
Aimé Guerlain
02 Abstract Expressionism
Francis Fabron
Abstract Expressionism
Chanel No. 5
03 Early American School
Aromatics Elixir
Bernard Chant
04 Industrialism
Drakkar Noir
Pierre Wargnye
05 Surrealism
Olivier Cresp
06 Minimalism
L'Eau d'Issey
Jacques Cavallier
07 Photo Realism
Annie Buzantian, Alberto Morillas
08 Kinetic Sculpture
Light Blue
Olivier Cresp
09 Neo-Romanticism
Prada Amber
Carlos Benaïm, Max Gavarry, Clément Gavarry
10 Luminism
Osmanthe Yunnan
Jean-Claude Ellena
11 Post-Brutalism
Daniela Andrier
You don't have to agree with his classifications - if you disagree, maybe Burr will learn something from you. (Note that we could talk about how the two photo realistic examples are alike/different.) But it feels like everyone else is throwing the towel in on this. Yes? No?
Last edited by Perfume_Addict; 3rd January 2013 at 02:07 PM.
I don't think I'm throwing in the towel, myself. I did see the exhibit in NYC, and my impression was that the scents therein were generally more clear-cut and more obvious members of their classifications, than what we got in the Untitled series. For example, calling Untitled by Daniela Andrier either Brutalist or Post-Brutalist makes sense when you smell it. The fragrance is (to my nose) constructed from olfactory cinder blocks - yet somehow made beautiful. Angel - Surrealist - no problem. And most of the others - they make sense. I still don't get Eau de Lierre as Photo Realism, but that's a tough call, IMO. I'm curious why Chanel no. 5 is not in your list - it was in the exhibit (also Abstract Expressionism, IIRC). Again - that and Jicky - no problem. In fact, the whole exhibit made sense, in its chronological change of styles.
But I would be much more hard-pressed to call the predominant artistic movement on any of the scents in S01. Much less obvious to me.

Easter arrives today. For Christians, it's regarded as the holiest day of the year. The holiday is held to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, who arose from the dead following His death on the cross as revealed by the scriptures.
Easter, or Resurrection Day, as many Christians refer to the holiday, is a time to celebrate.
Unlike Christmas, which is celebrated on Dec. 25 each year by Christians shortly after the arrival of winter, Easter can fall any place on the calendar between March 22 and April 25.
I would like to take this opportunity to personally endorse Barry Faile as sheriff of Lancaster County.
This letter is different than most political endorsements, as I have nothing to lose or gain by writing it. I believe Barry is the right choice for Lancaster County sheriff.
Barry has spent his entire law enforcement career as a deputy sheriff. He has worked in every capacity of the Sheriff's Office and was instrumental in organizing the Metro Drug Task Force.
I am a 62-year-old woman and a native of New Jersey. I worked 12 years as a ward/health coordinator at Bergen Pines Hospital in New Jersey. And I have worked in management positions for more than 30 years.
I have worked with the public for many years and never encountered anything like I did after moving to Lancaster.
At my place of employment a young, white man called me a racial slur. I felt degraded and overwhelmed when he made the remark.
Listening Center is a support center
The residents of Lancaster, Chester and York counties are all facing some fast changes in the economy and in lifestyles.
As these changes happen, more and more people may face challenges that lead to a downturn in their everyday life and may have feelings of hopelessness with no one to turn to.
This is just a reminder that the Listening Center in Lancaster is a referral and support center with an ear.
I agree wholeheartedly that the responsibility of an animal, dangerous or not, lies solely with the owner.
I would like to ask Lancaster County Council members and committee members to strengthen the response to an animal complaint.
I understand complaints as Animal Control's responsibility, as it should be.
He wasn't getting into a "challenging" contest with an elephant. The context is not verbatim. I can't print what he really said here, but you get the idea.
He - head of a state department, whose salary is paid by taxpayers - was the challenger and I was the elephant. I have a prominent nose and I had gained some weight. But I decided not to take the comment personally.
In an election year, it's simply amazing what candidates will latch on to in in order to make another candidate look bad. Case in point is the campaign for the Senate 16 seat between Rep. Mick Mulvaney and Democrat Mandy Powers-Norrell.
Several weeks ago, the Charlotte Observer misstated that Mulvaney's children attended Indian Land Elementary when actually they attend Catholic school.
To conduct business in the Panhandle, some local officials have had to play a game of musical meeting sites. But that changed recently when Merrifield Partners, the developer of 521 Commerce Center on U.S. 521, donated a 1,300-square-foot space in its Pinckney Building.
Lancaster County Economic Development Corp., Lancaster County Chamber of Commerce and the local office of the S.C. Employment Security Commission will use the space.
"Often times, all of us have had a need for office space, a place to meet" in Indian Land, said LCEDC President Keith Tunnell.
I read the guest editorial "Dog breed regulations won't work" in the March 14 edition of The Lancaster News and it raised several questions.
Is Lancaster County Council considering mandatory DNA tests of all dogs to prove they are or are not a dangerous breed?
How else will they know for certain what a mixed dog has as ancestors or parents?
How does designating a dog breed as a dangerous breed affect the owners liability especially regarding the homeowners insurance?
I recently noticed an obvious and hopefully, an innocent misprint in the March 9 edition of The Neighbors of York and Lancaster County in The Charlotte Observer.
The story was the coverage of S.C. Gov. Mark Sanford's support of Mick Mulvaney, a Republican candidate for the S.C. Senate 16 District.
The Lancaster News had already covered the story with the correct information. Along with the story was similar photo that was published in The Lancaster News. It was a photo of Sanford, Mulvaney and Mulvaney's wife.
The equation for a good life is to have good literacy skills. Mastering literacy can lead to a good education, good health and a good job which equates to a good life.
That was the message recently at the J. Marion Sims Literacy Forum. Dr. Linda Gambrell, president of the International Reading Association, was the guest speaker.
Gambrell, who has authored several books on literacy and is, of course, an avid reader, was touting the benefits of reading.
As sheriff of Lancaster County, I would like to discuss an issue very close to each of us - crime prevention. My office is committed to making our neighborhoods safer places to live.
By doing so, we will improve the quality of life for individuals and families, both young and old. It is imperative that we seek progress to reduce the negative influences that crime has on our children and to help safeguard the elderly.
I would like to thank the A.R. Rucker Middle School cheerleaders for being just that - middle school cheerleaders. These girls consistently complement the athletic programs at A.R. Rucker Middle School.
They strive to do what cheerleaders should, which is lead the crowd in support of the athletes competing. I am proud to know that the A.R. Rucker Middle School cheerleaders take their positions as leaders and role models seriously.
Critics of social networking Web sites better get used it; they're here to stay. The youth are using them to keep in touch with one another.
Telecommuters from HP are using them to connect with their development teams. Even military officers are using Facebook to organize their squadrons.
Social networks are a part of a larger schema that is oft called Web 2.0. Web 2.0 is the catalyst for the culture clash between those who embrace these tools and those who are just fine with the conventional methods.
As a dog owner in this county, I oppose any County Council decision regulating dogs based on breed.
We have asked a couple of times for our public bodies to do a little bit more to get involved in the effort to stop the interbasin transfer.
The state of North Carolina approved a request from two of its towns, Concord and Kannapolis, to withdraw up to 10 million gallons a day from the Catawba River.
That water would be returned, as sewage, to the Yadkin-Pee Dee River basin.
When this first popped up, at the end of 2005, Chester County Council approved a resolution saying it was opposed to the transfer. There wasn't too much other action after that, for a while.
Andrew Jackson State Park will be teeming with energy Saturday. That's when the annual Andrew Jackson Birthday Celebration unfolds at the state park built to honor the nation's seventh president.
The young and young-at-heart will be in full force for a full day of activities on the land where Jackson roamed the Carolina frontier as a young lad.
As a youngster, Jackson might have been found hiking through these very woods, fishing or handling a chore or two around his family's cabin.
Lt. Gov. Andre Bauer answers questions about aging issues.
Question: My mother called me the other day wanting to know what I thought about a great program that an insurance agent called her about. The agent told her that they would give her either a motorized scooter or $1,000 if she completed a survey on health-related questions and provided some personal information. When she said that she would fill out a survey, an agent came by her house to notarize the survey and have her sign a release.
The Founding Fathers set down guidelines for our nation. Although, they adhered to Christian principles, they also emphasized "liberty and justice for all" and "freedom of religion." Over the years, efforts were instigated to specify just who liberty and justice should relate to. Religious freedom removed any form of "state religion" giving us the right to "bow to our maker in any way or form we felt comfortable. Now, it seems we are moving toward freedom from religion.
I enjoyed editor Barbara Rutledge's recent column "Conversations, tidbits and FYI's." I can only imagine how many complaints you must get any given day.
But I, too, harbor a list that irritates me.
I have submitted information to The Lancaster News. And because of miscommunication and inconsistent procedures my information was not published or lost. Also, I had my personal photos misplaced.
I had just lost all hope in The Lancaster News.

From Ministro Pistarini International Airport (Ezeiza):
We offer free shuttle service from the airport. Our contact information will be in your booking confirmation email.
Alternately, you can take a taxi. This is a faster but more expensive option. It should take around 40 minutes to get to the hostel and cost nearly $45USD (or AR$300) and the entire journey should be by highway.
From Retiro Bus Station:
Take the Line C subway in the direction of Constitucion and get off at Lavalle station, just three blocks from our hostel. Please print the map above to help you find your way from there.
Alternately, a taxi will cost around $10USD (AR$80) and will take 10-15 minutes, depending on traffic.
