LA Galaxy forward Landon Donovan will be serving as an analyst for ESPN for the 2014 FIFA World Cup, but in light of this news, let's look back at the highlight of Donovan's last foray into broadcasting.
Donovan served as an analyst for Fox Sports 1's UEFA Champions League coverage a year ago and during the broadcast, he provided a hilarious impression of english accent of German-born U.S. National Team midfielder Jermaine Jones.

CARSON, Calif. -- LA Galaxy II offers playing opportunities to players across the team's player pyramid including international newcomers like French defensive midfielder Andre Auras.
In 10 appearances for Galaxy II, the French midfielder has been one of head coach Curt Onalfo's top performers with his refined passing ability that has resulted in three assists on the season. On Sunday during the Galaxy II's 5-1 victory over the Dayton Dutch Lions, Auras was influential yet again as he helped break up plays while also helping spark several counterattacks for Los Dos as they ran roughshod over their USL PRO counterparts.
Following Sunday's victory, Onalfo offered a high compliment of Auras' play which may have given an indication of where the Frenchman's career could end up if he continues his solid play.
"He is a very, very good player. It was a little bit of a long week because he trained on the day we often have the training with the first team," said Onalfo. "I think he was sharp in the beginning of the game, but he got sharper as the game went on. His passing is good and his positioning continues to get better. He is a guy that I think can play in the MLS."
Think Auras has a future in MLS?

A day ago, U.S. Soccer released 23 fascinating profile videos of each of the members of the 23-man U.S. National Team squad that will be competing in the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil.
LA Galaxy center back Omar Gonzalez's is perhaps one of the most interesting as he describes his love of cooking, the interesting way that he met his wife Erica and how he started his youth career in Dallas.
Check it out below.
CARSON, Calif. -- LA Galaxy II demolished the Dayton Dutch Lions 5-1 on Sunday thanks to a pair of two goal performances from Jack McBean and Bradford Jamieson IV.
Los Dos tallied all five goals in the first half as Jamieson IV opened the scoring before two goals by McBean and one by Charlie Rugg. Jamieson then ended the scoring for the Galaxy II in the 45th minute off a beautiful individual effort.
Dayton scored a consolation goal in the 74th minute as Aaron Schoenfeld capitalized on a defensive miscommunication to break the shutout.
CARSON, Calif. -- LA Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena spoke to the media following LA's 1-1 draw to Chivas USA on Sunday.
Check it out below.
(On the team's performance...)
ARENA: "It's not a good a result for us. I give Chivas credit. We squandered a few chances. Obviously, conceded a goal isn't the smartest way to play this game. There were chances for us to get a few more goals. At the end of the day, that's the game. We didn't connect, but give them credit. They played very hard. They had good concentration for 90 plus minutes. I think our team didn't come out and play well the first 15 minutes or so."
(On Robbie Rogers' performance...)
ARENA: "He played pretty well. Defensively he didn't have to do a whole lot. I think got forward in the attack. He got used to playing the position. It's hard to mimic a real game in training. This is his first real game at 90 minutes at that position. I think overall he did well."
(On Gyasi Zardes' performance...)
ARENA: "Good goal. We had some chances before that. It was good to see Gyasi get a goal. I think for the most part he did alright tonight."
(On A.J. DeLaGarza playing in the central defense...)
ARENA: "He plays all different spots in the back. We are just prepared for that. Obviously, we've had a few injures and missing a few players. He's always an option for us."
(On the tie..)
ARENA: "Let's face it. They did a good job. They dropped and played pretty deep to keep everything in front of them. They had good numbers behind the ball. The execution of the last pass or the shots, some reluctance at times to shoot the ball, and the crossing at times was not good or should have been there and wasn't there for us. All those little things that make a difference against a team that is going to defend with numbers. A draw for them is a victory. They aren't going to come out of that shell unless you execute a little bit better. And, we didn't."
(On Chandler Hoffman...)
ARENA: "He got a good opportunity at the end of the game. And, that's a real positive. That's the job of a forward coming in at the end of the game to try and get a chance, and hopefully, get a goal and position the team to get the win."
CARSON, Calif. -- The LA Galaxy will look to earn their sixth straight victory against Chivas USA on Sunday in their last home SuperClasico before the Rojiblancos expected rebrand -- and potential move -- in the offseason.
*Sunday will be the final home game for the LA Galaxy against Chivas USA before the team's rebrand and earlier in the week, LA's players reflected on the rivalry.
*Don't forget to pick up one of the LA Galaxy's commemorative match posters prior to or during the match.
*Juninho is enjoying a banner year, but as of yet, the goals have not come, which is a cause of concern for the LA Galaxy.
*Tommy Meyer and Leonardo have formed a solid partnership in central defense in recent weeks. LAGalaxy.com's Larry Morgan speaks to the pair and talks about their comfort playing alongside one another.
*Brazilian forward Samuel has been steadily continuing his development with the LA Galaxy, will he get the start with Robbie Keane away?
*Lastly, LAGalaxy.com's Larry Morgan offered his preview of the match.
CUBO TORRES vs. LEONARDO
Torres makes his money by sliding over the shoulder of center backs and he'll be looking to find space behind Leonardo from the outset. If he can find the back of the net early, the Galaxy may be in for a difficult evening.
JUNINHO vs. MAURO ROSALES
The Argentine will look to put a world of pressure on the LA Galaxy's defensive midfielder, but without the presence of the suspended Oswaldo Minda, he will need to be mindful of pushing too far lest he become susceptible to the Galaxy counterattack.
"I think they have better team than last year. I think [Erick] Torres has grown as a player, [Mauro] Rosales is a really good addition. I think the backline improved. The goalkeeper is always good. They've had some impressive results on the road. Beat Colorado in a snow storm and got a point against Portland while also winning their opening game this season against Chicago. They've got some good games and some that are not. Maybe they can say the same about us."
- Head coach Bruce Arena
"It's definitely a good opportunity for the players and for us to try to perform well against a very good team. [The week] has been positive, with good mentality. We're trying to just rebound from the two games that we played here and we didn't play as well and didn't have good results. We're not making excuses. We just have to be strong, have a good attitude with the game during the 90 minutes, understanding that we have a very good team in front of us."
- Head coach Wilmer Cabrera

Galaxy 3 Chivas USA 0
The LA Galaxy will play their final MLS match before the league's two-week break for the group stage of the 2014 FIFA World Cup on Sunday against Chivas USA, but does it come at the right time?
The Galaxy have dealt with numerous breaks and off weeks throughout the first half of the 2014 season and will need to deal with another after their match against the Rojiblancos.
But how important is it?
"I don't know if this is good or not, I just want to know when to come back. For us, it is going to be a good rest," said Juninho. "We can take our time, set up and figure out for the [U.S. Open Cup]. Bruce is going have more time to think about the team, and think about what formation he prefers—diamond or two midfields. I think this break is good."
Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena -- unsurprisingly -- has a different take.
"It's important to win. We are not really having a break. The break thing is only the league officials and referees," he said. "We work the whole time with the Open Cup and all so it is not that much of a break but it will be somewhat in the league of a break. We are going to have the Open Cup obligation, but having said all that, it is important to get a win."

Omar Gonzalez serves as late substitute as U.S. defeat Nigeria 2-1 in final World Cup Send-Off match
The United States attack came alive in a major way on Saturday thanks to a brace from Jozy Altidore as the Americans earned a 2-1 victory over Nigeria helping the U.S. compile a perfect 3-0-0 record in their "Send-Off Series."
Altidore scored in both halves with a tap-in to put the Americans ahead in the 32nd minute before tallying a confident strike in the 68th minute to seal the victory. The goals ended a six-month scoring drought for Altidore who had last scored for his club side Sunderland back in December 2013.
Galaxy defender Omar Gonzalez checked in for Altidore in the 80th minute and just moments after he checked in, Nigerian striker Victor Moses was awarded a penalty after a defensive breakdown forced American center back Matt Besler to bring down the forward in the penalty area. Moses slotted the penalty past American goalkeeper Tim Howard to spark a Nigerian rally, but the U.S. held on for the victory.
The U.S. will head to Brazil in the coming days and play their final World Cup tuneup against Belgium in a closed-door scrimmage on June 12 in Sao Paulo. Klinsmann's group will open Group G play on June 16 against Ghana in Natal. Nigeria are in Group F alongside Iran, Bosnia and Herzegovina and tournament favorite Argentina. The Super Eagles open the tournament on June 16 against Iran in Curitiba.
Pleased by the result? Upset that Gonzalez did not start for a third straight match for the USMNT?
Share your thoughts below.
CARSON, Calif. – Whether he's stationed at forward or on the wing, it's all the same to Gyasi Zardes.
The LA Galaxy's dynamic offensive-minded player simply wants to get into the attack.
Zardes got a taste of life back up top during a brief second half appearance during LA's 1-1 draw with the Chicago Fire a week ago. Although the shift went well for 22-year-old, who has one goal and one assist this season, Zardes doesn't have an opinion on where he's best suited to play.
"It felt great getting back up top. It felt really good to get back up there," said Zardes. "I missed playing up top, but I like outside too because I have freedom to space. I'm a runner; I want to run [at people]."
If he gets a chance to see the field, he'll look to pressure a Chivas USA side that he's enjoyed success against since coming into the league as he's tallied two goals and two assists in a pair of SuperClasico appearances.
Although the Galaxy have dominated the Rojiblancos throughout their series, Zardes expects a tough challenge from Chivas on Sunday.
"This Chivas team is going to come strong and hard," said Zardes. "We need to be prepared for them."
Where do you think Zardes' best position is?

The women of the Everett Reign play 'real football'
Genna Martin / The Herald
Amy Selia of Marysville warms up for practice with the Everett Reign women's football team. The team's first game is Saturday against the Las Vegas Showgirlz at Everett Memorial Stadium.
Genna Martin / The Herald
The Everett Reign defense huddles after a drill. The Reign is a tackle football team that competes in the Women's Football Alliance.
Girls on the gridiron? Not likely, unless they were the cheerleaders leading the team out before the game. Or maybe the girls in the marching band, which is how it was for Theresa Trinka-Hoard, who graduated from Bothell High School and lives today in Snohomish.
Playing halftime shows with her high school band "was the closest I ever got to the football field," Trinka-Hoard said.
Even as women have made advances in other sports over the years, football has always remained the pride and province of men.
Until now, that is. Because the women of the Everett Reign are adjusting their shoulder pads and tightening their chin straps in anticipation of their upcoming season in the Women's Football Alliance, a league with 13 divisions and 50 teams from across the United States.
If you're thinking this is something like powder puff football, think again.
"This is real football," said 23-year-old Brynn Winsor of Monroe, a receptionist in the cardiology department of the Everett Clinic who plays on the team's offensive and defensive lines. "It's full tackle. It's what you see on Sundays."
The WFA has been around a few years, but this is the first season for the Reign, a team of women mostly in their 20s and 30s. They come from varied careers and sports backgrounds, but are united by their love of football and the opportunity to play a game that has been, to this point, mostly off-limits to their gender.
"I've wanted to play my entire life," said wide receiver and defensive back Brooklyn Holton of Arlington, a 23-year-old student at Western Washington University who is pursuing degrees in business management and kinesiology. "There's this feeling you get when you're out there -- and anyone that's played football can relate to it -- and it's that feeling you get when you make a block or catch the football.
"You have to play to understand why somebody would want to do this so bad, but then once you play, you don't want to do anything else," she said.
The Reign is coached by Billy Russo, who played football at Lakewood High School in the early 1990s before going on to play one season at Western New Mexico University and then a few seasons of semipro back in Snohomish County. He has been a high school assistant coach and today is the head coach at Park Place Middle School in the Monroe School District.
"Some of our girls have never played football before, so they're still learning," he said. "But we've got some real athletes on the team, and I think our starting lineup is going to be really solid."
Compared to men, Reign players "give up a lot in terms of strength," Russo said. "But we have a few girls who are super aggressive. They get after it. I was actually shocked by a couple of them."
Among them Winsor, who plays a bruising game. "I'm very physical," she said, "and I have no problem with the contact. It's a way to release your aggressions and stresses."
Winsor and Holton are two of the team's younger players, but there are older players, too. One of them is Trinka-Hoard, a personal trainer who is 55 -- no, that's not a typo -- and has four adult children. Her youngest plays football at Carroll College in Helena, Mont.
"I really didn't know much about football until my son started playing, but I've grown to love the sport," said Trinka-Hoard, an offensive and defensive lineman. "And now I understand why men love football and why they're so hooked on it. Because there's nothing like putting on pads and a helmet, and then going out there and hitting. It's great."
It was her husband who suggested she try out for the Reign, and at first "I laughed my head off," Trinka-Hoard said. "But then I thought about it and decided, well, one more thing for the bucket list."
Not everyone understands, of course. Family members fear for their safety. A few friends think they are nuts. And, sadly, some people believe a woman who wants to play football is somehow "less of a female," Holton said.
But others, men and women alike, are completely encouraging.
"The majority of my friends are very supportive," Trinka-Hoard said. "So many people come up to me and say, 'It's the coolest thing that you're doing this.' ... I just have a few women who don't understand it, but I think they will eventually.
"Besides," she added, "I like the idea of being very feminine if I want to, and then being able to come out here and kick ass."
As much as they love playing, the women have complaints about the apparel. Football gear is designed for male bodies, which means women have to wear pants and pads that are too big in some places, too small in others. Players were given new equipment at a recent Reign practice, and some were struggling to pull on snug football pants intended to fit the thighs, hips and derrières of men.
Likewise, shoulder pads do not rest properly on a woman's chest, "and my hip pads are not where my hips are," Winsor said.
But those are small grievances compared to the surpassing joy of simply playing the game.
"I'm doing something that I love," Holton said. "And I'm not afraid of getting injured because if you get injured doing something you love, it's worth it."
No one is quite sure how the public will respond to a football team for women, but the players are hoping it catches on. In particular, they want other women to get interested and consider playing, too.
"I think women will want to come out and see what it's all about," Winsor said. "Because it's empowering. For me it's like, 'Boys do this, and I want to do it, too.'"
"I grew up in an era when this would've been frowned upon," said Trinka-Hoard. "It would've been ludicrous. But now I get to do it, too."

GRAHAM — A Graham woman alleges that
Nicole Hall filed a complaint against Webster with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission at the
Webster said he was advised by his attorney this week not to comment about Hill's claims.
"This issue is under legal jurisdiction and I am not supposed to comment on it now no matter how much I want to talk about it to get the truth known," Webster said.
Hall, 25, told the Times-News she interviewed with Webster on Aug. 15 for the position of Register of Deeds Deputy II. During the interview, Hall said Webster repeatedly asked her about her medical history and wanted her to provide him with her medical records.
"Some of the questions he asked me included what medical problem I had, what surgeries have I had, and if I had asked for any work accommodations at my prior place of employment," Hall stated in her EEOC charge of discrimination complaint. "I informed him that I would not be having any more procedures and wouldn't require any work restrictions for the position for which I was applying."
Hall said her explanations weren't good enough for Webster.
"He informed me that he wanted more information about my medical history and I told him the same information that I had previously," Hall stated. "He told me that wasn't good enough."
Hall said Webster asked her what surgeries she had in the past. She declined to answer.
"It was wrong for him to ask that," Hall said.
During the Aug. 15 interview, Hall said Webster allegedly made sexist remarks about women working in the office. Hall said Webster's comments focused on how he believed his female employees should dress, eat, exercise and vote and that he could fire them for any reason he wanted.
Hall told the Times-News she was surprised by some of the comments Webster allegedly made, but she didn't say anything to him because she wanted the job at the Register of Deeds.
Hall was called back for a second interview on Aug. 24. According to the EEOC charge of discrimination, Hall was one of two final candidates being considered for the job. During the interview, Webster allegedly asked Hall again about what surgeries she had so he could decide if she was going to need more in the future and possibly miss time from work.
"I informed him that I could do the job and should have no problems," Hall said. "He also
Hall told the Times-News she felt intimidated and threatened by Webster's behavior during both interviews. Hall said she went back for a second interview hoping to get the job and get off unemployment benefits.
"There are so few jobs out there," Hall said. "I tried to tolerate him."
Also during the second interview, Hall alleged that Webster made disparaging remarks against women saying he believed that they nag and gossip too much and think they know everything.
Hall left the second interview with no job offer. On Aug. 28, Hall replied to an email from Webster's office to allow him to do a background check.
"I have not heard anything
In the EEOC charge of discrimination, Hall said she believed that she was discriminated against due to her sex in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and that she was discriminated against in violation of the
The county's response to the EEOC regarding the charge of discrimination was due on Friday.
Albright said he submitted a request on Friday morning with the EEOC to have the deadline extended.

Layering is when you use soap/body wash and deodorant before spraying on the EDT/EDP fragrance (usually all of the same scent) in order to increase the longevity of a certain fragrance.
Thread: Layering Frags
I am not big into layering, but two fragrances that work very good as layering bases in my experience are Oud Luban by Aftelier and Cologne du Parfumeur by Guerlain.

Hardly ever layer, usually a single scent applied tends to develop so many complexities, subtleties, undertones I want to discover and better appreciate, almost any layering would thus just distract me.
try rochas an le nuit
Hello all,
I'm really intrigued about layering and would like to know more. What is the proper technique? Which notes go well together and which are a no-no?
I hear TF Tobacco Vanille/Noir de Noir goes well with Tuscan Leather. Havent got round to trying it yet but will give it a try and report back
Please share with us your experiences.... successes and otherwise
Amen and Bogart pour Homme (easy on both). Other than that I haven't tried much else.
Acqua di Gio + Issey + Aventus + GIT + Pure Havane + Amouage Lyric Man
At least two sprays of each.
Ambre narguile with poivre samarcande. more poivre than ambre for sure - 2:1 or better 3:1
Amouage Homage and Creeds Boi Du Portgual is a good combo with gorgeous florals and great wood notes.
I often use an EDC in the morning after stepping out of the shower. Many traditional EDC's are intended to work as a base for heavier fragrances, and they seem to work quite nicely if you pick the right one. Cologne du 68, despite being an EDT, is a favourite as it dries quickly to a subtle Guerlinade skin-scent that is gorgeous, and quite versatile.
Layering is fun. I used to layer Philosphy's Falling in Love with Angel and got lots of compliments! I say, if you can pull it off have at it! It's probably a good idea to start layering with simpler fragrances rather than complex ones. But that's not to say complex fragrances can't go together.
I typically don't, but had an SA layer Lacoste White (Blanc?) with Fahrenheit 32 to a very interesting effect. Worth a try sometime.
I'm wearing Montales Aoud Lime on the one hand and Malle's Portrait of a Lady on the other. It's a lot like sitting in a garden of my dreams. I don't usually layer deliberately but when samples come in I end up with some quite interesting combinations. because I have no patience to wait for one sample to wear off before applying the next.
Occasionally I layer fragrances, basically experimenting, and get some really good results. I may use a fragrance with low projection as a base, then layer over that another fragrance, with similar notes, that project better. I often find that the combo works well and I tend to receive many compliments.
Jo Malone Nectarine Blossom & Honey + Cuir de Lancome -or- Yves Rocher Voile de Ambre
I layered Juicy Couture Dirty English and Animale Animale. Reminded me of Perry Ellis 360 Black and John Varvatos
very funny
Hey guys. So i've been experimenting quite a bit since i had so many samples laying around and I came up with some interesting mixtures. Some are what i've seen other people on this forum suggest, others are what i came up with. I thought i'd share my findings and see if anyone else has done some mad mixings of their own haha. Also if you have what i have, perhaps you can try out my mix and let me know your thoughts? Here goes:
"midnight aventus" - 1:1 Creed aventus and Van Cleef & Arpels Midnight in Paris. I like this because it adds a creamyness to the smoky pineapple. one of my go-to date scents.
PinaColada Aventus 1:1 Aventus + Virgin Island water - one of my partyscents. smoky pinacola
Bond Dinner Jacket 1:1 creed millesime imperial + Tom Ford Grey Vetiver. I feel like bond when wearing this combo, lol
One Million Gio - 1:1 aqua di gio + Paco rabanne one million. (one million first, then acqua di gio). A fresher party scent
Aqua Million - 3x Aqua di Gio + 1x Paco One million. I pre-mixed this in an atomizer and let it sit for at least 3 days. To me it smells like a much more sophisticated fresh version of one million. less in-your face. more elegant.
Gucci Tea & Soda - 1:1 Gucci Pour Homme II with Aqua di Gio. Smells like tea + italian soda
Aqua Gold - 1:1 Cuba Gold with Aqua di gio. Felt like a fresh le male with hint of tobacco.
Vanilla Soda 1:1 Thallium + Aqua di gio. I imagine this work work with Dior homme instead of thallium too. Smells like vanilla soda to me.
Vanilla Temptation - 1:1 Axe Dark Temptation + Thallium. I found them to be pretty compatible with each other.
*i added aqua di gio to a whole bunch of stuff, lol.
Lemme know what you guys think!
Although I never mix or layer, I enjoy the ideas people come up with.
great thread.
Looking forward to trying the la nuit and rochas man. SOunds good.
I took 3 ml atomizers to mix my mugler frags. Did one with 1/3 A*men and 2/3 pure malt, 1/3 A*men and 2/3 Pure havane, and 1/2 Pure Havane 1/2 pure malt. Havent dealt into all 3 yet, but the amen pure havane is very interesting.
For the a*men le male combo are you guys doing a 1:1 ratio?
La Nuit and Rochas is great. But I prefer to layer La Nuit with Midnight in Paris.
Rochas with Potion is really interesting. The opening is a bit strange but afterwards I can't just stop sniffing myself.
I don't layer niche fragrances except the TF Private Blends. TV + TL is my favorite so far.
Thx. I have tried TV and TL and it's very good. Also LIDGE and TV is good too.
Eau De Fraiche with Eau D'ete Summer Edition by Issey Miyake
OMG it's amazing. Probably the best citrus scent I have ever experienced. When I smell this, I think of myself on a boat in the middle of the Caribbean drinking a Corona with lime as the sailing wind brings towards my nostrils the soothing smell of the ocean's breeze and then a buddy goes lets take a shot of bacardi and we chase it down with a glass off freshly squeezed orange juice.
It's intoxicating. If anyone has those two bottles at hand, I suggest you immediately put it on your skin and enter a utopian state of mind.
Would you like mix 2 or 3 scents and wear it?
If you know any body does that business let me know
Yes I have layered before. I have also mixed the juices in one vial..it did not turn out well.
I never understood layering. Would you mix pepsi and mountain dew? But props to you if you can actually pull it off.
Yes I have layered before, with some success. Actually a company like Jo Malone advocates layering their scents, but I'm sure that's just a shameless ploy to get you to buy multiple bottles.
I have layered Equipage with Burberry Classic for men and it heightened the Equipage scent. Fantastic results!
I'm not OLD...I'm VINTAGE!
Etro frag are made for this deal , u have base based frag and the cover one... nice combo etro etro plus etro pachuli.
...i know many don't agree with layering, but i had to share this one.
Pure Havane + Aqua di gio.
In my opinion it worked very well. The fruity/aquatic balance was amazing. I had a travel size aqua, which i splashed on around my neck and chest, with one spray of Havane on the back of my neck and one on my chest.
It was hard to pick out the dominating scent of the two.
definitely going to try it again. I was never a big fan of Adua di gio in the first place, but now i'm tempted to buy a bottle.
This will be noted on your permanent record, as you know, and Grant will have to place you on the watch list. (Shakes head sadly.)
'...And you'll carry me down on your dancing
To the pools that you lift on your wrist...'
The seatbelt in my car has been layered about 500x times since 2003 when it was new and it smells amazing.
It could totally be it's own scent by now haha.
I do layer a few frags here and there usually in the same theme, those two seem worlds apart but you just never know!
Perfume is like cocktails without the hangover, like chocolate without the calories, like an affair without tears, like a vacation from which you never have to come back.
Tea Rose + Caron's Pour Un Homme, on the chest. One of Tea Rose, several of PUH, great end result. Makes me think if adding rose to PUH's blend would improve it (someone tell the guys in Caron about this, please?).
Caron's PUH + Chanel's Jersey. One or two of the former, several of PUH's. It gives this one the longevity and sillage everybody complains about.
Pure Malt plus Khiel's Musk is good as well.
I always layer Midnight In Paris, edp, with MIP, edt. It lasts and projects well when layered. Love that frag.
I love layering. A fave is L'Air du Desert Marocain with something green like Mazzolari or Le Temps d'Une Fete. I also really love layering with Balle de Match. It goes beautifully with this stuff that Aveda made called Pure-Fume Tonic for Men. Sounds like something off the back of a 19th C charlatan's cart, but smells quite nice.
Anyway, nuts to the layering police!
'...And you'll carry me down on your dancing
To the pools that you lift on your wrist...'
I can't even imagine those two being layered with each other ever!
Similarly, I saw a video of someone layering Paco Rabanne One Million and Aqua di Gio, which they swear by. I'd try it but I don't own either fragrance.

P.S. There should be like a sticky thread for all the layering. I thought there was a thread before but now i cant find it.

So I've been wondering, why isn't there a sticky thread for all things layering / Fragrance combinations? I know some people really hate the idea, but there are others like myself who really like to experiment and would love to see what other people come up with.
On a side note, is there a "proper" way of layering 2 fragrances? I've tried spraying one on top of each other but that ends up being doing many sprays and overloading or not enough (i usually do 2-3 sprays, 1 on neck one on chest and maybe one on the wrist. spraying on on another usually just leaves me with only 2 sprays to the neck. 4 is too much.) I also tried mixing them in a small decant and then letting it sit for a few days to blend together. that works out ok, the scent changes quite a bit though, some times for the better (Aventus + MiP sat in 3 days ends up smelling kinda like the drink orange bang). What are your thoughts on proper layering techniques? how do you guys layer your scents?
I think that's a decision a moderator makes.
haha yeah, i figured i'd ask =P any thoughts on mixing /layering techniques? btw hednic i really digged your recommendations from my previous posts =) Thanks!
I don't have a signature fragrance. My signature changes a little bit every day, why shouldn't my fragrance?
i layered voyage d'hermes and thierry muglers mugler cologne. the reason is because voyage d'hermes might be fresh and start of a little citrusy but then it turns into a very fresh musky scent . to tone down the musk i layered it with mugler cologne which has citrussy and floral notes in it to make a very plesent smelling fresh fragrance and it worked very well!
Just for yucks, I just tried the 1 Million/AdG layering on the back of my hand. For about 30 seconds, it wasn't bad... just a sweeter AdG. Then it virtually disappeared. I swear. It is like nothing now, with my nose right up to it, just 3 minutes later!!
Good to see all the layerers coming out of the closet.
A couple of my personal favourites are 1 shot of Declaration with 2 of Gucci pour Homme 2 and Laura Biagott's Roma with, oops, I can't remember. (I'll have to get back with that one.)
OK, I'm sneaking into a guy thread...
Diptyque Eau Duelle + Lutens Chergui (like curling up in a cozy nest of my Opa's pipe tobacco)
L'Artisan Mechant Loup + Sienna by Crabtree & Evelyn (adds a bit more wolf to the Bassett's Allsorts vibe)
...skulking out now.... Lisa
Welcome to the dark side, SaNielson. Please visit often! Cool combos.
Lots of single-note-dominant niche frags layer well, and the dense Serge Lutens hold up well. Some of them are, from one perspective, like the sturdy, unfinished base of a gorgeous fragrance yet to be finished. Andy Tauer speaks of 'threads' in his compositions, often as if they were really quite separate, although complementary, beasts. It's well known that certain very fine noses and houses have their own bases that they go to again and again, Tauer and Guerlain being two notables.
Chergui makes great sense as one that would layer well. Chene seems like it's missing something without some sort of floral or green thrown in. Etc and so forth.
'...And you'll carry me down on your dancing
To the pools that you lift on your wrist...'
Ok, new mixture: Polo Blue Club + paco 1 Million. So far so good~ =) if you guys have both of these, try it out!
I spritz A*men on my neck and chest and a little spritz of Angel on each wrist.
I just got a bottle of Black Orchid. I haven't tried it yet but I'm thinking it might blend well with Midnight Poison.

text: I just wanted to let you guys know, I talked to Bink the other day. He was excited to hear about the progress that has been made with the Parks Dept. and he has already got the steel ready for the bridge on hole 3. About the only thing holding us up now is the weather. As soon as we can, we will need about a dozen strong backs to haul the steel beams down the hill to the supports near the creek. We can then get the framework up for the bridge. We are waiting to hear from the Parks Dept. as to what kind of bridges they want around holes 13 and 15, they will probably be either wood or fiberglass. Be patient it will all come together soon, we've waited this long, we can wait just a little longer. I have had talks with the other club officers and we have made a decision to make DLG, Jim Ashton, Eddie Whelan and Bink Life members in good standing of the LDGC. I could go on about the contributions these guys have made to the LDGC and DG in general, but it would take too long, and most of you could tell me things I don't know about. It is a small gesture of thanks to some outstanding ambassadors of our sport, and the LDGC. Again, I encourage anybody out there who hasn't joined the club to do so. We all need your support, we have a stronger voice when we can show a strong sense of unity, the officials and potential sponsers we deal with are impressed by strong numbers and makes it easier to state our case with a strong base of support behind us. We will set up another open meeting soon, and will announce it ASAP. Those who signed the phone list will get a phone call so they stay informed as well. Thanks for your support, and hope to see you on the course soon. I need to get a bag tag.

Miami Head Coach Don Treadwell
On 25 seniors graduating
"We are going to miss a lot of great seniors. Certainly, I thought our kids, as they've done all year, played very hard. We continue to do that and I think that's a testament that the kids provide from that prospective because your seniors make such a big difference."
On 25-35 MPH wind
"It was a huge factor in terms of trying to throw against the wind, because it was really blowing. So, strategy wise, you really had to account for that."
On the loss
"We fell short, but as I told our kids, 'If you play your best there is no shame in losing, you just have to learn from it and move forward'."
On finishing 4-8 for the second straight season
"Certainly, as a head coach who has worn the red and white, played on the battlefield, no one has higher expectations for our football program than me. So, any critics can take a backseat, because there's no one that feels a loss more than a head coach that's played here. I'm going to make that very clear. We will continue to move forward and what matters most quite frankly is, especially as we finish this season, for those that are privileged to come back, and we have a lot of players coming back as returners, is how we respond. And I think that's where it sits."
Senior Defensive Lineman Jason Semmes
On the defensive effort in general
"We knew they were going to run the ball. That's what is frustrating. It came down to us making plays and executing and we didn't do that in the end. This one hurts."
Reflecting as a senior
"I think we gave all out effort today and they beat us. There's not really much more that I can say. It hurts to go out losing, but I know that it's going to springboard those guys for next season."
On playing with his brother Justin Semmes
"Looking over and seeing my brother, it's probably the best feeling. Even more exciting than when I make a play is when he's out there. I'm just excited that I got the opportunity to play with him here."
On finishing 4-8 this season
"We didn't come into the season thinking back-to-back 4-8 seasons. It's tough. We put our all into this program and we know the coaches put their all into the program, so when you come up short of your expectations it's hard."
Senior Quarterback Zac Dysert
On the loss
"They just made more plays than us when it came down to it."
On finishing his career
"It has been awesome here. I can't say enough about Miami University: the football program, the guys on the team, the coaches, you know, just everybody that surrounds the team. They're just awesome. Without them, none of this stuff that we accomplished could have happened."
Sophomore Wide Receiver Dawan Scott
On scoring his first rushing TD in the first quarter
"Coach told me we were going to throw a wildcat in there for you, so I just got real excited and just took my opportunity and everybody blocked."
On how it felt to be a running back again
"I miss it. I miss it a lot. Sometimes when I get the ball I just turn into one like I have the running back mentality. I just miss it."
Ball State Head Coach Pete Lembo
On today's game
"When I look at the tape, I will see a lot of good things, but we will see a few things that bother us a little bit. At the end of the day considering the circumstances we are very happy."
At the end of the regular season
"Relative to it being the second year of a rebuilding process, we're a pretty young team. We only started seven seniors most of them were on the offensive line. We've had several conversations going into the year about our schedule with three BCS opponents, finishing up with most our games on the road, and playing some of the better teams in the crossover phase. Relative to all of those things, I'm really proud of this team. It's pretty amazing and we're not even factoring in the injuries. We came over and got win number nine. It's only happened twice, once in 1978 and once in 2008. It's amazing what those guys have done relative to all of those things. It's pretty special what we've been able to do."

Student Printing at the Kelley School of Business
Printing at IUB is not free – part of your technology fee each semester goes towards the cost of paper, toner, maintenance, etc. of the printers at IUB. Graduate students are allotted a quota of 1,000 pages per semester. If a student goes over their quota, they will be billed by the Bursar at the rate of 4 cents per page, billed in 100 sheet increments (i.e. in $4 increments). NOTE – students are allowed to "rollover" up to 300 pages of unused printing allotment form the fall into the spring semester – see below for more info.
Kelley, in conjunction with UITS, has deployed Print Release Stations and duplex units to all of the printers in Kelley. These Release Stations are designed to simplify printing by allowing students to select a single printer as their printing target, and obtain that print job from any printer. By choosing to print to KSOB-prt, a Kelley Graduate student can then access their print job from any of the following printers:
These printers are located in the CG building and their names correspond to the nearest classroom, or the room itself:
Each of these printers house 3,000 sheets of paper when full – if you send a print job to one that is out of paper or experiencing a jam, simply redirect it to another printer. Technology Operations & Services personnel get automated updates when a printer is experiencing hardware difficulties and we try to attend to them as quickly as possible.
* CG3075prt is located in room CG 3075 – this is a technology lab that is often reserved by other departments or groups within the Kelley School. Therefore, this printer is not always available for Graduate printing needs.
What if I need more pages in the spring than I did in the fall?
Beginning the Sunday after finals, each fall semester -- through mid-February, students may request a rollover of up to 300 pages of unused allotment. Be sure to apply for your rollover before the deadline!
Similarly, at the end of spring semester -- through June, students may request a rollover of up to 300 pages into summer. Students missing the deadline may not be eligible for a rollover!
Summer quota amounts are not eligible for rollover into the fall semester.
How do I check my quota usage?
For the answer to this, and more questions about printing at IU, see http://kb.iu.edu/data/aouh.html

Comments about ProGold ProLink:
I haven't personally bought this item from Jensen, but certainly will in the future.
If your'e using prolink (as you should!) and you use it correctly, you know it doesn't last long. This bulk size container is like have the price per volume as the smaller 4oz container. Do yourself a favor and buy this and have enough lube for years and years and half price.
Best Uses
Comments about ProGold ProLink:
I have used various high quality lubes in the past, all the big names, but I keep coming back to ProLink.
I like ProLink because it acts as a decent cleaner and a great lubricant. It's a lower viscosity oil, so you'll have to apply it a bit more often than the thicker stuff. I usually apply this stuff about every 150-ish miles.
I believe that some people really overcomplicate the process of oiling a chain by using fancy chain cleaning tools, degreasers, extended soaks in oil and/or mineral spirit baths, etc. I'll share my personal technique below. I'm not claiming this is the best way to do it, but it's very easy and I get just as many miles out of my chains as I did back when I overcomplicated this process, if not more. I'm a full-blown cycler who puts on a good amount of miles annually, so I've gone through plenty of chains and have tried various techniques. Below is all I ever do anymore.
First, there's no need to use degreaser unless your chain is rusty. I'm in the camp that believes degreasers do more harm than good by allowing subtle debris to work its way deeper into the chain. Also, I believe that degreaser can flush deeply penetrated lube out, which can be hard to re-apply. ProLink does a good enough job cleaning and your chain will still look fairly shiny.
1. - Wipe chain vigorously with a dry rag (just hold the chain with a rag and pedal backwards).
2. - Apply a drop of lube on each roller.
3. - Wipe chain vigorously again.
4. - Re-apply a drop of lube on each roller, try to get it between the roller and the plates for better penetration.
5. - Let it sit for at least 30 minutes, while doing so pedal backwards on occasion to allow the lube to move around inside the chain.
6. - Wipe your chain vigorously again. You don't want the outside of your chain to be wet with oil, this will only gum up your drive-train by turning your chain into a dirt magnet (also if you don't wipe it enough then you'll get those dirty marks on your leg).
That's it. Keep it simple, the chain is a disposable part and I have noticed no added life by using degreasers and more involved cleaning/lubing techniques.
As a side note we own an indoor cycling studio we use ProLube on our indoor cycles too. They are chain driven and ProLube helps to keep the chain clean and smooth.

Allan Savory:
How to fight desertification and reverse climate change
"Desertification is a fancy word for land that is turning to desert," begins Allan Savory in this quietly powerful talk. And it's happening to about two-thirds of the world's grasslands, accelerating climate change and causing traditional grazing societies to descend into social chaos. Savory has devoted his life to stopping it. He now believes — and his work so far shows — that a surprising factor can protect grasslands and even reclaim degraded land that was once desert.

Don't be surprised to see Jonny Wilkinson in Australia with the British and Irish Lions.
Lions coach Warren Gatland confirmed Wilkinson had declared himself unavailable to tour and encouraged the selectors to pick Owen Farrell.
Gatland said the selectors wanted Wilkinson but the player felt his body would not meet the demands of the six week tour.
Gatland, however, did not rule out Wilkinson still playing a part in the three-Test series. He said that if a replacement flyhalf was needed because of injury he would 'resume' the conversation with Wilkinson, who in any event would not have been available to leave for Australia with the squad because of the French Top 14 final.
The Lions play the Barbarians in Hong Kong as a tour warm-up on the day of the French domestic final.
Gatland only named two specialist flyhalves in a squad of 37, when it was expected the squad would be 38 and there would be three flyhalves.
It would surprise few if Wilkinson reassesses his appetite for Australia post the French final.

Fibrocystic Disease
(Benign Breast Masses; Breast Cysts; Cystic Disease; Chronic Cystic Mastitis; Mammary Dysplasia)
|Breast Cysts
|Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
- Multiple lumps (cysts) will occur in both breasts that cycle with menstrual periods.
- Cysts may produce no symptoms or cause pain and tenderness.
- A fibrocystic lump may be difficult to tell apart from a cancerous mass. But, its rapid disappearance with menses and reappearance in the next menstrual cycle help to distinguish this condition from breast cancer.
- A fine needle biopsy is nearly identical to an aspiration. The only difference is that a tiny piece of tissue is also drawn out of the lump.
- An excisional biopsy removes the entire lump through a surgical incision. This can be done with local anesthesia if the lump is small and superficial.

Braving chilly water for annual New Year's Day dip
The brave jump into chilly Puget Sound for the Edmonds Polar Bear dip
Mark Mulligan / The Herald
Participants in the sixth annual Polar Bear Plunge run back out of the water at Brackett's Landing after fully submerging themselves Tuesday afternoon in Edmonds.
Mark Mulligan / The Herald
Revelers run into the water during the sixth annual Polar Bear Plunge at Brackett's Landing in Edmonds Tuesday afternoon.
Nearly all of their faces read the same thing: "Am I really going to run into Puget Sound on this chilly afternoon?"
A half-second later, they charged the shore and splashed, screaming, into the sparkling water adjacent to the Edmonds ferry dock.
As many turned around and ran back to the beach for the warmth of blankets and bathrobes, 88-year-old Carl Rautenberg of Edmonds dove in, first using a crawl stroke and then turning over on his back to swim.
"The water's only six degrees or so cooler than it is when I swim here in the summer," said Rautenberg as he waited for the annual New Year's Day Polar Bear Plunge to begin. "It's my first time to swim here in the winter, but I will be fine. I just had to cross this one off my bucket list."
Rautenberg is a retired city engineer, public works director and community development officer for the city of Mountlake Terrace. The avid swimmer has lived in Edmonds for many years. Each summer he notices that children play in the water at the Edmonds beach, but rarely do adults swim unless they're wearing wet suits for scuba diving.
"Usually the adults just sit on the beach logs and watch the kids," Rautenberg said. "Swimming in cold water is refreshing, renewing and a good way to wake up."
Rautenberg joined his daughter Karen, 50, and some of her colleagues from the Edmonds School District in the chilly dip on Tuesday.
Also diving into the cold water was Ellison Maul, 8, of Edmonds. While her family, bundled up in heavy coats and hats, watched from the beach, Ellison and her uncle, Jason Hill of Sumner, got thoroughly wet.
"It was freezing, but now I'm going to do the Polar Bear Plunge every year," Ellison said. "When I got out of the water, I started to cry. First I was mad at myself because it was so cold, then I was crying because I was so happy I did it."
The annual plunge into the new year is becoming a popular Edmonds event, said organizer Brian Taylor. Even the Edmonds Fire Department showed up to offer assistance Tuesday.
Taylor, 49, owns Daphne's Bar, home of the Edmonds Uplift Society, which sponsors the plunge. Membership in the society of New Year's Day swimmers supports the Edmonds Historical Museum. Between memberships and donations collected at the beach, the society gives about $500 a year to the museum, Taylor said.
Hanging in Daphne's is a photo taken in 1932 of the original Edmonds Uplift Society, with members sitting around a table covered with bottles of Rainier beer. Today the society is a drinking club with a social conscience, Taylor said.
New members are welcome and are awarded a 24-ounce can of Rainier beer after they take the plunge.
More information about joining the club is at www.daphnesbar.com.

Legalization didn't solve problems pot presents
Both validate libertarian get-out-of-my-private-life views. Yet I see them as very different, despite the link of timing.
Seeing happy, committed couples at long last able to marry, I am proud of Washington voters for taking a great step forward in support of equal rights.
To me, though -- even if it makes sense for law enforcement not to focus on marijuana -- legalizing pot is nothing to celebrate.
I'm troubled by the message the new marijuana law sends, and not just to kids. Weed is obviously not as harmful as heroin, opioid painkillers and other drugs. But let's not pretend there's no problem here.
Marijuana Anonymous, which uses the 12-step recovery approach founded by Alcoholics Anonymous, has 11 regular meetings in its Western Washington District 4. An Everett MA group is called "Last Puff."
That group meets 7 to 8 p.m. Tuesdays in the Padovan Room at Providence Regional Medical Center Everett's Pacific campus, and 7 to 8:15 p.m. Fridays in the hospital's Monte Cristo Room. One member of the group said 15 to 20 people show up for each meeting.
From a Marijuana Anonymous book, titled "Life with Hope," comes this question and answer:
"How can there be marijuana addicts if marijuana is not addicting?"
"We who are marijuana addicts know the answer to this question. Marijuana controls our lives. We lose interest in all else; our dreams go up in smoke."
If you never had a friend or loved one whose life fit that scenario, you are lucky -- and probably pretty rare.
"Marijuana is addictive to 9 percent to 10 percent of users," Dr. Bill Dickinson wrote in his Viewpoints opinion piece published in The Herald Oct. 21.
Dickinson is an addiction specialist with Providence Behavioral Health Services in Everett. Writing about his pot-dependent patients, Dickinson said "I am able to get people off of cocaine and heroin, but they are not able to stop using cannabis."
This isn't a "Reefer Madness" sort of rant. I truly struggled before deciding to vote no on Initiative 502. The law removes criminal penalties for pot users 21 and older. It will allow retail sales of marijuana, with the state collecting taxes.
I would have supported a decriminalization law, which California now has. Rather than legalizing marijuana, the California law that took effect in 2011 reduced possession of less than an ounce from a misdemeanor to an infraction.
The penalty -- and the California law applies to juveniles and adults -- is a $100 fine, like a traffic ticket. Pot users are spared criminal records, but the message is different than in Washington.
Here, voters seemed to say marijuana use is fine -- no harm at all.
Legalization will likely increase pot use. That has happened since hard liquor became available in Washington grocery stores and other shops.
The state Department of Revenue reported Tuesday that in the first four months of privatized sales, from June through September, consumers bought 7.9 percent more liquor than they did during the same period last year.
If and when Washington's pot law goes into effect fully, with retail outlets, weed will not only be more available, but presumably more respectable.
It's not hard to imagine parents, who previously kept a secret stash of weed in their bedroom, feeling free to smoke their drug of choice at home in front of the kids. That's now perfectly legal -- like having a beer on Super Bowl Sunday.
It's a big change. I'm surprised by how many voters supported it.
According to election returns released by Washington Secretary of State Sam Reed, 1,724,209 voters favored Initiative 502 for legalized pot, while 1,371,235 opposed it. That's a wider margin than the victory for Referendum 74, the same-sex marriage measure, which won 1,659,915 to 1,431,285.
Think of it: 124,344 more voters supported legal pot than same-sex marriage. Marriage equality validates long-term relationships and creates a stronger safety net for families.
What will legal weed create? We don't know yet. It's history in the making. But I'm wary of calling it progress.

Hi jane. The reason that you cannot change the text and color of the "get it now" button is because it is an actual image (). In order to change the appearance, you will need to download and edit the image in a photo editor like Photoshop. Don't forget to upload the file via FTP to the same location when you're done (alternatively you can upload via Wordpress -> Media and put the new image location in the Callout section). And thank you for using Firebug! You will find it very useful once you get the hang of it. In this case, when you right click on the image and click "inspect element" it brings up the HTML img element which points to the file I referenced above. Hope that helps!

Length is great for me with heels, am 5'1". I find though that while the style and look is cute, the fit is large. I have other 7FAM jeans ans this one fits larger than all the others, especially around the hips. Other than that it is a good design.
i love this jean. have an older pair with white stitching and it's one of my favorite jeans. i like the cut of A pocket better than bootcut, as A is more fitted through the tigh area. the wash is very nice- it can be dressed up or down. denim is not too thin, mid weight, so they can be worn all year round. i took my usual size 28 and it fits great, so i'll say they run true to size. very happy with purchase.

Lopez on Anthony Davis' defense: "From what I've seen, he's got great timing, is long and athletic. Hopefully we can close down some lanes"
Jim Eichenhofer @Jim_Eichenhofer
Lopez said former high school teammate Quincy Pondexter "had nothing but fantastic things to say about Monty and how he develops players."

Lopez joked to a TV guy getting a bit close while clipping on a mike:"Usually you have to take me to dinner a couple times first to do that"

Things came to a standstill last week for obvious reasons, but Hornets players are heading in to town. A few were going to come last week

At one point prior to Isaac's approach it appeared to be possible that all or close to all 14 guys would be here at once, but got scrapped
Damn you, Issac!
Now I do voice overs. Finally!
Click here for my first voice demo!
Some of you don't seem to like Warrick, but he was walking around the Warehouse District (saw him on Tchoup by Tommy's) with a real estate agent. Overheard their convo while I was at a red light. She was telling him about the neighborhood. Not sure if he was looking to buy or rent!
We dislike Warrick the player, not the person.
Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams
Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston
I think younger players can dramatically change. But Warrick is pretty set in his ways. He'll give us some athleticism. Hit some midrange shots, make some big get 'em hype plays. But anything more is lagniappe, anything less and he'll be on the pine while Jason Smith comes in to do his thing.
