From the moment Beth started speaking, I knew she was the real deal. She had fresh, innovative ideas about the job world and her excitement was infectious. I left with renewed faith in my abilities, but it didn't end there - Beth followed up with valuable tools for my job search and together we went through an in-depth but enjoyable process of finding out what I wanted out of my career now. In the end, through following the steps that Beth outlined and by being consistently buoyed by her belief in my potential, I was able to find a job that aligns perfectly for my career goals at this time in my life."
Summer Dawn Franck, MBA
"I met with Greg with a below grade resume, he was then able to rework it into an exciting, informative and free flowing resume. He worked with me to gather my skills and experiences and directly align those with the position I was apply for (I got the job!)"
Jeffrey Wehrwein, '11 & '14 Midland
"Midge managed to stay accessible and offer 1:1 sessions in which she would answer questions and give priceless, tailored advice. Working with Midge and her endless tools for success gave me choices."
Manny Gonzalez, '13 Florida

Tanya Bakari, Adult Degree Program
"Greg's expertise in resume writing and knowing what employers are looking for helped guide me in building a resume to focus on the highlights of my military and civilian career over the last 30+ years. Through the help of Career Services, I have been offered one position and have received positive feedback from interviewers due to Greg's coaching to prepare me for interviews."
Franklin C. Taylor, '14 Midland
"Midge has a warm and welcoming attitude, which makes it easy to get in touch with her. I decided to stay for my OPT and she supported me from the first moment. She was patient, knowing and extremely helpful in creating an 'American' resume. Midge created a wonderful overview of my education and work experiences. Upon graduation, I moved to Miami and am working for one of the biggest yacht brokerage houses in the world."

'Insuring' Future Student SuccessPosted Apr. 12, 2011
Anyone hoping to get a few minutes with Kent State University President Lester A. Lefton knows they have to make it past the ultimate gatekeeper — his assistant, Debra Drake, '08.
In just five years with the university, the personable Drake with the contagious laugh has experienced it from nearly every angle: parent, staff member, student, alumna and donor. She began working in the Office of Diversity before moving to the president's suite. She watched her daughter graduate from the nursing program, while her son enrolled in the computer technology program. And in 2008, she completed her own bachelor's degree.
"I guess my first love of Kent State came when my daughter decided to go here. Honestly, my imagery of Kent State had always been from when I was a little girl, of May 4," she says. "So when my daughter said she wanted to go here, I said I'd rather you not because that was my only image."
In time, that fear vanished — first, when activist and speaker Tom Hayden took her on a tour of the May 4 site in 2007, and later, during the 40th commemoration last year.
"We paid real attention to the wounded students and the families," Drake says. "I think it just gave me a greater appreciation for what Kent State stands for. We've been fair, and inclusive, and understanding — which is kind of what Kent State is generally."
Education is important to the two men she calls father figures in her life: her father, who was a minister, and Lefton. When Drake was in school, both men demanded she excel — and both wanted to see her grades.
Upon examining her grades, "the president said, 'Good, I'm proud of you,'" she says. "When I finished my degree, I could tell he was proud of me because it was not only something I wanted to do; it was something I needed to do."
Now, Drake is creating a permanent legacy by endowing four scholarships through a gift of life insurance.
When Drake became a widowed mother of two, she ensured her children would be taken care of through insurance in the event of her death. Now that they're older, those policies are the foundation for her significant gift to four scholarship funds.
The first is a scholarship for nontraditional students in honor of her grandmother, who completed her mass-communication degree at the University of Akron when she was 72 years old, taking courses one at a time while working as a beautician and real estate broker.
"She just turned 90 in December," Drake says. "I gave her this scholarship; she didn't know what to say. I told her I wanted to give her the scholarship because she's such an inspiration."
Another scholarship provides emergency funds for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender students and honors a friend of Drake's who passed away.
The third scholarship honors her children, while the fourth is named for her parents and provides last-dollar support for students who have run out of other financial options.
"I want the scholarship for my parents to be meaningful," she says. "It's nice to know that no matter what I need, they'll always be there for me, just as this last-dollar scholarship will be there for future students."
President Lefton offers high praise for his assistant's generosity.
"Debra was a quintessential Kent State student — going to school, working full time, committed to family, and embodying a strong work ethic that is exceeded by no one," he says. "What a great legacy to leave in honor of her grandmother, parents and children. Debra is the best."
This story originally appeared in the summer 2011 issue of the Kent State Magazine.

Both the 24 and 25 fit comfortably at the waist. I ended up going with the bigger size in case I expand in the future, but this was a big mistake for the present! These jeans are super soft which is great, but they stretch A LOT in the waist, thighs, calves, everywhere. Even after washes, they don't go back to original size. Comfy and a nice color, but I definitely recommend sizing down at least one size, possibly more, to avoid swimming in your jeans. Wish I knew beforehand!

About this Artist
Sara Post
"Everything in my artwork-ideas, materials, color, form, placement-seems to happen in its own time. I usually have to wait, occasionally trying to follow along or intersect with what's going on in a wider, mostly invisible, world. Drinking tea, walking around are integral parts of this process."
Sara Post's artwork explores the close at hand. Her ceramic wall works juxtapose patterns with quiet space in warm, glowing colors. Her oil and wax paintings are largely abstract references to plants, garden plots, fields or house plans. Her interest in pattern has recently led her to fabric design.
Oil and cold wax paintings are multi-layered abstractions and may include monotype collage elements, oil stick, powdered pigments, transfers and incised lines. Watercolors are abstract botanicals painted on Arches watercolor paper. Ceramic wall works are made from hand cut slabs, glazed, painted with studio pigments, etched and fired before assembly on a wood backing. Pigment prints from oil and wax or watercolor originals are printed with archival inks on Hahnemuhle photo rag paper.
Post studied ceramics at Northern Arizona University. She and husband Thomas Post operated T.S. Post Ceramics in Davis, California from 1981-2005, producing highly decorative functional ware and tile. Sara turned to ceramic wall works in 2006 and two years later began her current work, including oil and cold wax mixed media painting, watercolor painting and printmaking. She is an instructor at the Davis Art Center in Davis, California and curates exhibits for the art center's Tsao Gallery and for the gallery at The Artery, also in Davis.

(This column was originally published Dec. 2, 2013)
Last week, I dropped my trousers for my first-ever colonoscopy.
Most people are advised by their doctors to start getting intimately acquainted with a camera by the age of 50. But due to some family medical history, I was advised to let a doctor act out his Federico Fellini fantasies on my undercarriage by the age of 40.
Since I turn 41 in January, I decided to literally get on the stick.
Everyone who has gone through this procedure says the worst part is the prep you go through the day and night before. You're not allowed to eat anything the day before, so it's a day of drinking nothing but water. Starting at 5 p.m. the day before the procedure, you have to drink what is essentially Drano for People.
Thankfully, I'm as regular as a Jay Leno monologue so this wasn't too traumatic.
As a matter of fact, aside from the first evacuation that rivaled that of Cambodia in 1975, the rest of the evening was oddly reminiscent of the Old Faithful cone geyser in Wyoming. As for the exact amount of force being unleashed, I wasn't able to record too much data as I was busy holding on to the sink in order to keep from slamming my head on the ceiling.
My father picked me up at 6:30 a.m. that fateful Tuesday morning. Although I'd been as empty as John Goodman's lettuce crisper for over 11 hours, there were still sporadic outbursts of tsunamic activity at 5 a.m. and 6 a.m. I was concerned that something untoward might happen en route to the doctor.
Suffice to say, everything on my person was clinched tightly together with extreme prejudice. Every time we hit a pothole, I was afraid something would emanate from me that would show up on radar.
Once in the little room in my little gown, it was needle time at 8:15 a.m. I'm brave enough to tell you that I'm a complete wuss when it comes to needles, but I turned my head, bit off a sizable chunk of my inner cheek and kept it together like a big boy. I'd yet to un-clinch everything that had been clinched together earlier in the morning, so I advised the doctor to send out for some Crisco, because as of that moment he couldn't have worked a wish on a Q-tip up in there, much less a camera with a flashlight taped to its side.
The moment of truth came around 8:40 a.m. and I was wheeled back into the spelunking room. A very nice nurse asks if I'm the guy who writes the funny stuff for the newspaper. I reply, "Yes, I'm Bryan Hanks. If you happen to find any spare change up there, I'll split it with you."
About a minute later, the anesthetist unleashed the joy juice and I started to fade. The last terrifying thought I had before dozing off was that I never found that green army truck I loved so much as a kid.
The next thing I know, I'm back in the little room. I'm told the entire procedure lasted only 15 minutes — which I'm assuming is a good thing. Contrary to popular belief, I've never been drunk or high in my life, but I've got to say this stuff they knock you out with at the doctor's office is fantastic.
For a few minutes after waking up, you could have cut off my arm and hit me with it and I wouldn't have minded in the least. Ground control to Major Tom: take your protein pills and put your helmet on.
After the staff talked me down from the ceiling, the doctor came by and said everything looked OK. Since they inflate your innards with air so as to make room for the camera, the nurse came by and asked me to pull my knees up and "give her some gas."
I've been with the same woman since 1990 and have never done that in her presence out of respect, so it took me a few minutes to conjure a few bars of "When the Saints Go Marching In" on the ol' thunder trumpet. When it finally got going, it sounded more like Eminem's latest album, but then again, they had the radio on so it may have actually been Eminem's latest album.
At my request, the doctor filmed the entire procedure. If you'd like to purchase a copy to share with loved ones this holiday season, "Jon Dawson: Up Close and Intestinal" can be purchased at jondawson.com. Bonus features on the DVD include commentary from the doctor, my audio journal from the night before and a buyer's guide for the best gas station pickled eggs.
As we drove away from the doctor's office I realized that I was blessed in many ways. I have a great family support system, the doctor found nothing wrong and I was finally reunited with my long lost army truck.
Merry Christmas, everybody!

Cox Pours In 31 as Women's Basketball Scores Victory in Home Opener over Anderson 74-65
November 15, 2011
MISENHEIMER, N.C. Led by Brittany Coxs (Winston-Salem, NC) game-high 31 points, Pfeiffer University took care of Anderson University 74-65 in non-conference womens basketball action on Tuesday night. The Lady Falcons drained nine long distance shots improving to 1-2 on the season while the Trojans remain winless at 0-2.
Pfeiffer had the lead from the moment Christina Harvey (Locust Grove, VA) drained the games first shot until the final buzzer. Up by four, 13-9, at the halfway point of the first half, the Lady Falcons sprinted out on an 18-2 run over the next six minutes to grab a commanding 33-11 lead with 3:19 left. With a pair of triples and pair of free throws, Cox registered eight of those points while Vontreece Hayes (Greensboro, NC) also contributed with back-to-back baskets.
Down 23 with 2:14 left in the half, Anderson made a quick 9-0 run to slim the deficit down to 14, 36-22 at the intermission. The entire stretch was thanks to Alissa Diaz (Coral Springs, FL) who connected on a jumper, three-ball and four free throws to end the first 20 minutes.
Early into the second half, Pfeiffer would see their largest lead get to 17 on three occasions with Cox and Harvey leading the way, but Anderson would again sneak back into the contest slicing the margin down to nine with 6:47 to go on a basket by Breonda Shannon (Columbia, SC). Cox responded with another three to put the Lady Falcons back up a dozen before Rhoney dropped a three in between two more from Cox to help ice the contest with three minutes left.
Behind Coxs 31, Harvey poured in 14 points while Rhoney contributed with 13. Pfeiffer shot 43% from the floor, including 35% from long distance. Each team pulled down 38 boards while Anderson had just two more turnovers than the Lady Falcons with 12. Anderson was led by Diazs 17 while Shannon posted a double-double with 15 points and 11 rebounds.
Pfeiffer returns to the hardwood on Friday and Saturday participating in the Queen City Classic hosted by Johnson C. Smith down in Charlotte. The Lady Falcons take on the host Bulls at 6:00 p.m. Friday while battling Livingstone at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday.

This is an unflown example of a "Block I" display keyboard (DSKY) developed by Raytheon for the Apollo program. It was the primary means by which astronauts communicated with the Apollo on-board guidance computer. The Block I design was used in several unmanned flights, but it was replaced by a more advanced design for the piloted flights, which took astronauts to the Moon and back, and to several missions in near Earth orbit.

If having a horse in a movie is almost always a good idea, having a flying white horse ridden by Colin Farrell is the ne plus ultra. Farrell is an extraordinarily appealing actor, a five-o'-clock-shadow charmer. But even with those mad, Groucho Marx eyebrows -- like two caterpillars meeting on a leaf and saying "How d'you do?" -- and his party-boy reputation, on film Farrell has always come off as a contemplative fellow, one who carries worry with him wherever he goes. As Peter Lake, a petty criminal going straight in Akiva Goldsman's Winter's Tale -- based on Mark Helprin's novel set in a mythical 20th-century Manhattan -- Farrell must be a shy heartthrob in the movie's first half and a savior in the second. He pulls it off as well as anyone could. And his first meeting with that white horse is more pleasingly earthbound than cartoonishly fantastical. Approaching this lovely creature, he shows the humility of a stable boy and a sense of wonder at its otherworldly beauty. Horse and rider are a match -- as you would expect, there's a spiritual connection -- though later, Jack will appear shirtless with the feverish heiress Beverly Penn (Jessica Brown Findlay), which is a different sort of magic altogether. Unfortunately, it all goes south when Jennifer Connelly shows up as a modern-day newspaper columnist and super-worried mom. Winter's Tale switches from a lavish mystical fantasy into a ponderous fable about destiny and miracles and stuff. Goldsman has written heaps of screenplays, but Winter's Tale is his feature directing debut. The proceedings feel perfunctory, and in the clinch, he overreaches for pathos.Stephanie Zacharek

About Vampire Weekend
Indie group sinks its teeth into pop culture, find success (Created February 27, 2013)
At a time when vampires began to dominate popular culture by appearing in movies, television and literature, four men in New York City also made sure music wouldn't be left off that list. Thus the inspiration for what would become one of indie rock's latest, greatest success stories -- a band by the name of Vampire Weekend.
Formed in Manhattan in 2006, the group was originally a rap collaboration between Ezra Koenig and Chris Tomson during their time at Columbia University. With a shared interest in vastly different genres of music, they chose the name Vampire Weekend simply for the fact that it might play into the undying popularity of the mythical, blood-sucking creatures. Needless to say, the gamble worked. As two became four, with the band officially adding Chris Baio and Rostam Batmanglij, they began playing shows around campus and self-produced their debut album.
The quartet officially made its studio debut with 2008's "Vampire Weekend," an album that featured the well-worn song "Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa" (released in 2007 and ranked 67th on Rolling Stone's list of '100 Best Songs of the Year') , along with other cuts like "A-Punk" and "Oxford Comma" (which was No. 4 on Rolling Stone's list in 2008). Substantial media attention followed right into the band's sophomore effort, "Contra," in January 2010. The project was ultimately nominated for a Grammy for Best Alternative Music Album, but lost to The Black Keys's "Brothers."
The band's upcoming album, "Modern Vampires of the City," has been described by Koenig as "darker and more organic" in the February 2013 edition of Q. The band will kick off a tour beginning March 13 in Austin, Texas, with the project set to bow on May 6 in the UK and May 7 in the US.
SBTRKT Reveals New Album, Plans North American Tour

New York", the track features vocals by Vampire Weekend's Ezra Koenig (you can listen to the track below).

Pharmacy student is one of just 12 recipients of national leadership award
Rodney Turner, a second-year pharmacy student at the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine School of Pharmacy, recently received the 2010 American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP) Student Leadership Award. Of the more than 13,000 pharmacy students in the U.S., only 12 are awarded this special distinction each year.
|Rodney Turner, second from right, is pictured with members of the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine School of Pharmacy Student Society of Health-System Pharmacists chapter, which received a national award from the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists in November 2009. Turner was one of 12 recipients of the ASHP Student Leadership Award.
The ASHP Student Leadership Award recognizes students with an interest in pharmacy practice in health systems who have demonstrated leadership ability. It also recognizes and celebrates the contributions of students who represent the very best attributes and accomplishments of ASHP student members.
In addition to receiving an award plaque, Turner also receives a $2,500 cash award provided by the ASHP Research and Education Foundation through the Walter Jones Memorial Pharmacy Student Financial Aid Fund.
Turner is president of the LECOM chapter of the Student Society of Health-System Pharmacists (SSHP), the student organization of the ASHP. He presided over the chapter when it was recognized by the ASHP with a national award in November 2009. The award acknowledges the organizational success of the LECOM chapter on a local and national level, and it affords the school's chapter official recognition by the ASHP. In December 2009, LECOM's SSHP chapter collected 555 pounds of canned food as part of a monthlong food drive at the College.
The Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine and LECOM School of Pharmacy offer innovative and affordable education in osteopathic medicine and pharmacy. From campuses in Erie, Pennsylvania, Greensburg, Pennsylvania and Bradenton, Florida, LECOM provides student-centered pathways to prepare the next generation of healthcare professionals. Prepare yourself for medicine as your life's profession.

Anyone know how I can get on this Albertson's mailing list? My Albertson's is like 3 miles away, but I never get any ads (or stupid doublers) for them. I've updated my address on my Albys card and everything...
It has greatly impeded my ability to hoard Dreyer's this week. Well not greatly...I was just a little slow on it...and it wasn't free.
Dreyers Ice Cream is on sale 2/$6 (retail 6.99), buy $12 worth get $4 cat.
They must be going off retail because I bought two & got the cat.
6 - $1/2 = $5
- $4 cat = $1/2
(free if you use a doubler)
PS: I couldn't find any Mocha Almond Fudge...is this just my Albys or has Dreyers lost their mind?

do you get Albertsons ad in the mail with other ads? if not you can sign up here http://www.redplum.com/couponbook.aspx or contact them at 877-823-7119. Ralphs and Sprouts are the only grocery chains close to me all the others are 3+ miles away

For anyone that does have stupid doublers, the HH at Albies is still producing both CATs today.
For those that don't have stupid doublers a better deal would be to buy 10 HH for $1 each and use 3 of the .75/3 MQ from today's SS. After coupon cost $7.75, then get $7 back in CATs, a $5 CAT and a $2 CAT, so it would be .75 cents for 10 boxes of Hamburger/Chicken/Tuna helper.
Last edited by sdca; 08-14-2011 at 01:59 PM.. Reason: added deal for those without stupid doublers

This has pretty much been my only organized trip of the summer and I'm posting a screenshot of my list in case anyone finds it helpful. Basically, HH $2 cat is printing (off of 10 for sure, I didn't want to try 6) and I got a GM cereal CAT for $2/5 (first tran) and $1.50/4 (second tran). I felt bad for paying for that much for cereal, but I've been slacking on the milk deals and I love me some Cocoa Puffs so what can you do. & file name typo fail, I know.
On another note: Anyone else stop getting Fresh & Easy ads in their Sunday paper? I miss those x off y Qs they usually include.
ALSO: There was a demo for Fiber One 90 calorie bars (something like that) and the lady was giving out $1/1 Qs too so look out for that..mine was in the back at the cereal endcap near the meat section.

I found a great Budwiser $3 peelie that combines perfectly with the Bud beer/penny water deal at Albies. I bought the 20 pk of Bud light and a case of Crystal Geyser water. I was able to combine the $3 off any $3+ water peelie wyb Bud and the case of Crystal Geyser water for a penny Albies deal. The preferred card took off $2.99 and the peelie took off $3 since the water was exactly $3. For some reason I was only charged a nickel CRV for the case of water & $1 CRV for the beer. It was a great deal for me as I used an Albies gift card that I got free from a RX for the balance. I also found a bunch of other beer tearpads and rebates at Albies.
Albies had a big sheet of coupons that included coupons for $2 off Huggies, $1 off Visine, $2 off Garnier, $1.50 off 2 Pedialite products etc. They also had a booklet that said, "Pack to go back" with ten coupons for various items including $1 off 2 Ritz, $1 off one Kraft string cheese, Coke q's etc.If anyone wants the size details just lmk. Have a delightful night everyone!
Fresh & Easyif you sign up online to get emails from Fresh&Easy they usually include x off y qs you can print- last one was $10 of $50
Yes, I signed up in-store and received one a couple of weeks later, but it was BOGO artisan bread (new addition to my store) and $5 off $25. I only ask because I often find myself in need of meat (oh the joys of living with two grown men who must think I have a slaughterhouse out back).

VIRGINIA BEACH---The Army Corps of Engineers has started dredging sand offshore as part of the first beach-replenishment project at the Oceanfront in a decade.
After nor'easters and hurricanes, the city says they've lost a considerable amount of sand.
Crews have worked around the clock dredging sand from offshore, bringing load after load back to 15th Street to 70th Street, and piling it back on.
'If another storm were to come and hit, you would be looking at a lot more loss of sand,' said project manager Jennifer Armstrong. 'The sand acts as a buffer, so all that energy would be placed on the seawall.'
There was a similar project, Operation Big Beach, in 2002.
Since the last replenishment, the city has saved more than $400 million in storm water damage, and Armstrong says it comes with a small investment locally.
'In the short time that it's been in place, it has already paid for itself in initial costs and all anticipated costs for replenishment over the lifecycle of the project,' said Armstrong.
More than a million cubic yards of sand will be added to the beach by May 15th.
In order to start the current replenishment the city needed federal funding, which wasn't available until recently.

Crazy. I wonder when/if he'll ever feel like he's "there" again.
He'll definitely get there but it's only a matter of time. I don't think we'll see the real Dwight until close to playoffs time, and even then it's not certain. He had a very serious injury and I'm glad he's even able to play now.

Women's Tennis Defeat USC Aiken to Match Best Start Since 2006-07 Season
March 1, 2014
AIKEN, SC – The Pfeiffer women's tennis team (7-0) recorded a huge victory at USC Aiken (6-2) on a cool and cloudy Saturday afternoon. The Falcons ran their winning streak to seven games and matched the best start to a season since the 2006-07 Pfeiffer team also started 7-0.
Pfeiffer got off to a good start in doubles competition as the Falcons took two of three to grab the upper hand. The team of Taylor Lindsay and Valeria Mendoza along with the duo of Hannah Watson and Olivia Nelms won by scores of 8-2 and 8-4 in first and second doubles respectively. The tandem of Margot Simon and Victoria Jasko topped Pfeiffer's Briana Oliver and Mylene Petitpas by an 8-2 final in third doubles.
Nadine Tusiama took down Nelms in first singles by identical scores of 6-2, Nelms' first loss on the season. Lindsay and Mendoza took care of second and third singles in straight sets to regain the advantage for the Falcons.
Aiken would respond by winning fourth singles as Shauna Williams beat Watson 7-6 and 6-1. However, Petitpas sealed the Pfeiffer victory with a 6-2, 5-7, 6-4 victory over Jasko in fifth singles.
Pfeiffer has a chance to surpass its best start since the aforementioned 2006-07 season when they host Guilford tomorrow at the Knapp Tennis Center at 2 p.m.

If there were such a title as King of Alamance County Band Directors, Eddie Harris would have enjoyed a long reign.
Harris, who died Monday at the age of 68, spent nearly half his life as band director at Western Alamance High School – and, for part of that time, other schools in that part of the county. He retired from Western in 1998 after 32 years.
David Nebrig, an assistant principal at Western, became band director there in 1998 when Harris retired. From 1990 to 1998, Nebrig was band director at
"He started the band program" in the Western attendance zone, Nebrig said. Besides teaching at the high school, that initially included working with band students at Western Middle and, before that school opened in the late 1970s, what are now Altamahaw-Ossipee and Elon elementary schools.
People who knew Harris said his exterior was sometimes old-school to the point of being gruff, but quickly added that those who knew him saw beyond that.
"He had a kind of hard exterior, like a piece of candy," said Darla Bray, who first knew Harris as one of his band students and later worked closely with him when she taught chorus at Western. "But on the inside, he was as soft and warm as he could be."
Harris, Nebrig said, was a leader among band directors in
Steve Van Pelt, now a member of the Alamance-Burlington Board of Education, got to know Harris as a fellow band director. First a high school band director in
"He knew how to get the most out of his students and had great musical ability, too," Van Pelt said. "He was just larger than life in so many ways."
BRAY SAID HARRIS was a profound influence throughout her life, beginning when she was a student at Western.
It was a tradition for Harris to conduct the national anthem at the start of football games at Western, Bray said, but he turned that over to her during her time as drum major.
Bray played saxophone, and Harris put her in the school's jazz ensemble. When he heard her sing at church, he had her begin singing with the jazz group.
"That was his gift," she said. "As a teacher, he could see the potential in you before you ever saw it in yourself."
When Harris pushed students to attempt more than they thought they could do, Bray said, trophies and other outward signs of success were a byproduct rather than his goal. That, instead, was about students learning how much they could achieve and what they could become.
"It was always about the kids," she said.
Years later, Harris helped make Bray a more effective chorus teacher than she believes she otherwise would have been: "Everywhere you look (in my life), there's a piece of Eddie Harris in it."
Harris was emotional about music, Bray said, to the point where he would sometimes be in tears at the end of a well-performed piece.
He was known for his sense of humor, once posting on the band-room wall a clipping from an advice column. An unnamed band student from an unidentified locale complained about a band director borrowing students' instruments to show them how to maneuver through difficult passages. Except for percussion instruments, that involved the director's mouth on the instruments' mouthpieces.
"Who turned me in?" Harris wrote alongside the column's text.
HARRIS' AFFECTION for young people and his colleagues extended beyond the band program. Emogene Kernodle, a 1971 Western graduate, was impressed at Harris's reaction when she returned to the school to teach in 1983.
"He remembered me, and I wasn't even in the band," she said. "He just took me right in as a member of the family."
Those who knew Harris say he played a wicked set of drums and enjoyed making music as an instrumentalist with fellow musicians.
Billy Hatley, who plays bass for the Mason Lovette Band, and his sister, Mary Hatley Ricks, remembered coming home to find their father, Elmo Hatley, Harris and others playing jazz music.
"That's the greatest gift you can get, as a child," Ricks said.
In retirement, Harris stayed involved with music through bands at smaller schools and other musical groups.

I would think a Fumerie and LDDM fan would love:
Black Tourmaline by Oliver Durbano
Well, you have helped me narrow colognes in the past and I need assistance again. Sometimes, you guys know more about me in my random posts than I realized. Like Eric (evogel) told me, I just do not play well with citrus. Why oh why did I not listen and stay away???
Well, L'Eau Neuve may be great on others, but it absorbs into my skin. I tested Eau Savage this morning and it had a metallic edge. Aquatic scents are okay, but the only one that really does well on me is Acqua di Gio and it is tired.
So, let me tell you those that work, those that did not, and see what you think of some that I am considering.
I have Fumerie and Chergui and MI and Tauer's LDDM. All last to well past 3:00 on me usually. Chergui I wear in Fall an Winter but can wear all the others year round.
Guerlain Vetiver and OV by Creed are soapy and earthy. Voleur de Roses was raw. Black Oud and I could not play, but it lasted so long. Eternity and Obsession last very well on me. Safari by Lauren as well. Romance does okay. Piper Nigrum lasted well and so did Yerbamate, but it was too powdery. Eau des Iles lasted but in the 2nd year, that hazelnut gave me a headache. Tea for Two was smokey, and I loved to a degree the Eau de Navagateur by L'Artisan. Divine Homme Sage was nice.
I dont know what class I like. SOmetimes I think it is incense, or woods, but I dont know how to classify them really.
Creed Virgin Island Water too coconutty. Royal English Leather smelt like bubblegum, but good!! Acier Aluminum, well, I did get the aluminum part. These I would stay away from.
I did not like Blenheim or Hamman Bouquet by Penhaligons, and Floris Santal was nice but dried to too much pepper.
I read Incensi and Sandalo by LV are nice, but dont know about them.
I am leaning to Feuille de Tabac by Miller Harris, or maybe Bois du Portugal. I am thinking it best to aim for a year round scent than try to go summer only, and that will keep me away from Citrus. Acqua di Parma had a certain allure but I read it is short-lived. Czech and Speak's 88 sounds okay, but I dunno, but Cuba sounds like better.
I do like to smell myself at lunch. The wrist with my watchband really smells great, and I love to use cologne on the other wrist as well. Sometimes, I can turn my neck and somehow, after lunch, I get a whiff of cologne. I dont spray it on clothes since I wear a suit 90% of the time during the week and then on Sundays.
I do have a bottle of D'Orsay Arome3 coming.
So guys, can I go to the well again with you?
Ambre Precieux by MPG?
Feuilles de Tabac
Cuir de Russie by Pafurms Empire, or even any others there?
Cuba by Czech and Speake?
Sandalo or Incensi by Villoresi?
Something else?

I would think a Fumerie and LDDM fan would love:
Black Tourmaline by Oliver Durbano
Last edited by thebeck; 25th May 2008 at 09:55 PM. Reason: add vebage
Unfourtunatelly, of the ones you listed I only have tried cuba (Because I read somewhere that it smells like Havana). Nice scent.
I never understood LDDM hype... to me Bois Blond - Perfumerie Generale is much better if a bit sweeter. How about trying L'Homme Sage by divine?
*Summer" scent with no citrus Daim blond. Love it.
Current top 10 in no particular order : Malle - Carnal Flower (pre 2008) ; Montale - Black Aoud ; Bond #9 - Silver Factory ; Tauer - L'air du désert marocain ; C&Z - No 88 ; Francis K. - APOM ; Creed - Aventus ; Amouage - Epic ; Profumum - Dulcis In Fundo ; Amouage - Opus V
Thebeck: I read the reviews over on Luckyscent and they are promising but one guy said it was like standing in a fire and then pouring PineSol on yourself. I dont do pine very well.
Divine's Sage was okay on me, a good lasting one, but maybe not as great on me as say Feuilles de Tabac. However, neither one was a 'strong' cologne.
The idea of Cuba is interesting. To those of you who know what family of scents you like, your life is easier. I have come to realize that citrus is not going to be one for me. I used to wear Drakar and Eau Savage and Paco Rabanne and Quorom, but now, they have a metallic edge to them on my skin.
Dior's Homme lasted the best on me today between that, Juicy's Dirty English and Terre De Hermes.
Black Tourmaline seems Fall/winter but it did have good reviews.
Thanks to all that told me Acqua di Parma will be shortlived on me and not what I am looking for, as well as to forget about Tangerine Homme by Calypso.
I am like Sixcats in that scents die on me. Parfumes Empire sounds promising from the descriptions at Luckyscent and Beautyhabit.
Did you determine that SL Gris Clair was not an option for you?
Please feel free to check out my Swap Thread - Patou pour Homme, L'Instant de Guerlain PH Extreme, Dior Homme Intense, Pure Malt, Pure Coffee and many more! Click Here For My Swap Thread
I was able to try many of the Lutens, including Gris Clair, when I got my Chergui and Fumerie. As I recall, those two were the ones I liked. I don't think I want to dip into the Lutens pool again, for some reason, I might then start to think the two I have are not all that 'special' to me.
If you like tobacco scents, you will love the Miller Harris!
Founder- Cosa Nosetra
Under the "Something else" category, may I suggest Chanel's Coromandel. It would smell fantastic on a guy but perhaps more for cooler temps. Also, their Cuir de Russie & Eau de Cologne would be wonderful. Should be fairly easy to find samples to try too.
No affiliation...just love the scents.
We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men. ~Herman Melville
Part of the problem is I dont know what to look for as a starting point. There was one Bulgari that smelt like burnt tire rubber on me and if I knew what sort of 'group' that belonged to, I would avoid it. I am guessing that leather is a scent I dont do well with. I wonder if the Chergui, Fumerie, LDDM and say Obsession share something, like woods, or tobacco, that I need to stay with.
Thebeck suggested I order samples and I have done that, but the problem is I get like $20 worth of samples and that could have gone to a full bottle!!! I also can't handle more than 6 scents, say 3 or 4 for a season. I get kinda upset if I dont wear one often enough, but I dont want to be too anal and rotate them exactly.
C&S Cuba is an excellent fragrance but, for tobacco, I prefer 'Vintage' Tabarome, SMN Tabacco Toscano, SMN Acqua di Cuba and Domenico Caraceni pour Homme.
Please give C&S No. 88 a try. It is a superb masculine rose with excellent sillage and longevity. You'll catch whiffs well past three o'clock!
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, and sorry I could not travel both and be one traveler, long I stood and looked down one as far as I could to where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, ...... I shall be telling this with a sigh somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I -- I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference. - Robert Frost
I would suggest Miller Harris, FdT--however, I don't really think of this as a year-round scent (then again, I'm in Las Vegas). As an alternative for year-round use, and much different tobacco notes, how about Le Dandy? Or i Profumi di Firenze's Tabacco. Both are much more versatile than FdT.
Wow, that Domenico Caraceni sounds great. But with a bad experience with Voleur de Roses, I am a bit reticent and hesitant. Also, I read up on SMN Acqua di Cuba and a lit cigar seems like a no no, and Vintage Tabarome was a bit too heavy on the tobacco. I liked the sweetness of the Miller Harris, but in fall when I wore a sample of the Feuilles it was very light. If heat brings it out, great but if not, and its longevity is moderate, for that price, Id move on.
But back to a rose scent. C & S #88 and the Domenico, well, the sound intriguing. THe Blenheim Bouquet by Penhaligons, if I remember it correctly, smelled like pine needles, and Hamman Bouquet, oh, I can't remember, but neither impressed me.
Maybe you guys can see a pattern in what I like and then that narrows the field? I have Chergui and Fumerie and love the honeyed whatever in Chergui without it being cloying and the smokiness of Fumerie. I love the dryness of LDDM by Tauer and the bright note in MI and GIT. Love the pepper in Piper, and love the tabacco (sweet, not ashtray kind) in Miller Harris Feuilles. Dont like powdery, soap, the burnt rubber in one of those Bulgaris and strong vetiver. Like Eternity and Obsession by Calvin Klein
Feuilles de tabac is a nice one, very round and comforting tobacco, not too heavy.
About AdP, I can say citrus scents usually are weak and not lasting on me, but Colonia Assoluta is a all year round juice, both soapy-citrussy refreshing and with a warmer drydown that lasts on me about 8 hours. Maybe you should give it a try.
:::::: Visit My Blog: La gardenia nell'occhiello ::::::
Stuigi and Magnifiscent: Yes, the Miller Harris Feuilles de Tabac was nice on my skin, but after about 3 hours, it was close to the skin and by 6 hours, hardly detectable. But maybe in the heat of summer it works better? It has the sweet side of tabacco. If it lasts longer than most others I could consider, say Aqcua di Parma and the like, then with the sale at Beautyhabit, it is doable.
I was suppossed to have been sent a sample of the Acqua di Parma Colonia and Assoluta but it has not gotten here in 10 days.
I guess from what I like that I like incense (Fumerie?) and tobacco. I dont think I am a leather person and not a vanilla (LeMale) or raw earth. I do like them to last.
I have tried Terre D Hermes, YSL Pour Homme, Juicy's Dirty English, Dior Homme (best of the bunch), JPG Light Blue, Issye Miyaki and sniffed others.
Assume you have nothing in your collection but Chergui, MI, Tauer LDDM and Fumerie Turque. You want projection, you want longevity and you want to balance out your collection. No citrus, no Voleur de Roses, no Guerlain Vetiver. What works for you under those guidelines. 25% off is a powerful attraction, eh? Does MPG Ambre Precieux, Santal Noble or other work for you. Something from Parfum d'Empire?
I find that Cuba isn't really a tobacco scent. I find it mostly a bergamot/civet monster. I think it's really sexy, but I'm not sure why it's called Cuba.
Chergui's tobacco is quite comforting.
The Dreamer has a great tobacco leaf/lily accord. I also find the tobacco/ginger mix in Creed's Tabarome Millesime to be quite captivating.
Virgilio by Diptyque - Nice fresh long lasting frag. They use herbs like thyme and basil. The effect is a mixture that makes it have a nice refreshing minty quality. Mint by itself has no lasting power. With the combinations of herbs smelling like mint and having lasting power is great. It has some nice cedar in the base for that woody scent that works for you. Great for summer. I just bought a bottle myself.
Come back in fall for Fougere Bengale. Strong, long lasting, intoxicating powerhouse frag.
Ok, now I am learning something. Tabarome is ok on me, nothing special, but it does last. Chergui has tabacco also, and that is good, because the tabacco then in that and in Miller Harris is a good smell to me. I guess LDDM has tabacco?
Bahiana - sounds great, but I am afraid on me it would not last long. Also, read reviews on luckyscent that say the coconut is prominent, and that was what turned me off of Virgin Island Water by Creed (I think that was it). Edit: Eau de Toilette, it would not last on me. At least Feuilles is an eau de parfum, dang it.
Fougere Bengale, well, if it is that awesome, might be better off getting it and wearing MI and LDDM in summer and seeing if Chergui works in summer. If not, I have Chergui and the FB in fall/winter and Fumerie all year round? Or try another Parfume D'Empire?

Don't forget that the 25% off also works for samples. Since it lasts till June 30, you'd still have time to decide on what you'd like. I just ordered a sample pack myself.
One of the guys on board has. Acqua di Parma Colonia Assoluta edizione Riviera, 200ml spray, 95% full, $90
and he has Black Tourmaline for like $95. I tried a sample this afternoon of the AdP Assoluta and the Colonia. First impressions: after 20 mins, the Colonia is stronger than L'Eau Neuve but half of what it was when applied. The Assoluta is less rose and I smell something almost medicinal, but in a nice way. It is also twice as loud, if you will, then the Colonia
Opps, after 45 mins, the AdP Assoluta is perfumy - very bright. I don't get lemons or citrus, but something that would sparkle bordering on feminine. Am I right?
What did not work
1) Acqua di Parma Colonia - nice rose, very nice, not too floral, not too earthy, but dang it, petered out after 30 minutes
2) Acqua di Parma Assoluta - maybe 2 hours, but deeper in scent. Not as nice as the Colonia, but if it lasted 5 hours, would have worked
3) Arome 3 - for someone who loves lavendar, very nice. I have a Root English Lavendar candle I love to burn at home and this is that for the skin. Shortlived on me
4) Acqua di Parma Blu Mediterraneo Toscano - very feminine. Drydown is nicer than the inital 90 minutes
5) Le Male - too vanilla, too vanilla
6) JPG Light blue - too metallic/acquatic
I am thinking citrus and vetiver and mostly floral topnotes dont work. I love Chergui and Fumerie and LDDM by Taeur
How do these strike you, and remember, I need longevity the most, and then projection:
Feuilles de Tabac - my idea of a nice, nice safe scent, but longevity may not be that great
Something by Parfum d'Empire
MPG Ambre Precieux - too sweet?
Black Tourmaline?
Santal Noble by MPG? - I read creamy and think vanilla, but who knows. I love Sandalwood shave cream, but some can be dry.
Czech and Speak Francinsens and Myrrh - same reservations as the Santal Noble.
I like the smoothness of the tabacco in Feuilles. I love the smokiness from Fumerie. I love that honey note in Chergui without it being cloying or too sweet. I love the dryness of LDDM. I LOVE the longevity of each of these.
Last edited by finsfan; 28th May 2008 at 01:11 AM.
I have narrowed it down to:
Fougere Bengale by Parfum D'empire - dont know but it sounds interesting.
Czech & SPeake 88 - everyone says I have to try it. I dont like the roses in Voleur de Roses but did so much like them in Acqua di Parma Colonia though it was fleeting.
Miller Harris Feuilles de Tabac, maybe Citron Citron. The Feuilles, I love the smoothness of the tabacco, not a ashtray but fresher and sweeter. It is THIS SMELL I am trying to duplicate. Fumerie may be too close to it, but I get more of a floral smell out of Fumerie, which is fine, to give it a little edge. If Feuilles was a silage monster and lasted all day, two bottles.
Black Tourmaline - sounds interesting
Costes - worried if it becomes too vanilla or powdery.
So, considering I have and like LDDM, Chergui, MI and Fumerie Turque and I love projection and longevity, and looking for warm weather to year round scent, which one(s)?
Last edited by finsfan; 28th May 2008 at 03:18 PM.
I personally think you can't go wrong with C&S 88. As with a lot of other fragrances, you may just have to apply it lightly in warmer weather.
Please feel free to check out my Swap Thread - Patou pour Homme, L'Instant de Guerlain PH Extreme, Dior Homme Intense, Pure Malt, Pure Coffee and many more! Click Here For My Swap Thread
Costes is back in and I also put in Citron Citron. I am trading a few of my scents so I put it back in. Maybe as long as it smells good, I can get an atomizer and refresh at work. Maybe have two or three that I keep in a drawer at home and take with.
C&S 88, well, soapy and I dont do well. I loved Spanish Leather by Trumper but the soap, nah.
When I find something I like, I love it. In fact, Fumerie, I have 1.5 bell jars of that stuff

Citron Citron is also a great one!
No guru, not method, no teacher
Just you and I and nature
Citron Citron is out. I was remembered me and citrus do not play well, except that AdP I do like. If only it lasted longer.
C&S 88 is out if it is a soapy fragrance.
Went to Beauty Habit to order Samples, Here is what I got to test out
Tangerine Homme by Calypso
Fougere Bengale by Parfums D'Empire
Miller Harris Feuilles de Tabac
MPG Santal Noble
Hotel Costes
alternate was Ambre Precieux.
May have to go to Luckyscent to order.
I read that you don't like citrus, but now I see you ordered Tangerine by Calypso. Nice scent, one of my fav's for summer, but also very much a citrus scent, I'm affraid...
No guru, not method, no teacher
Just you and I and nature
That is a good list - I especially like Santal Noble myself - let us know what you find! I have a sample of Fougere Bengale that is on my dresser waiting for my allergies to die down so I can really evaluate the scent!
Don't be afraid of ordering from Luckyscent - they make ti very easy and very quick in my experience. Aedes website feels a bit more difficult to navigate their sample system, but they are a little bit less expensive than Luckyscent. I have not ordered from Aedes yet, though I am likely to soon!

Yes,, Domingo, you are right. Some Lemons are acrid on me, or smell like lemon furniture polish. Most are short lived. But many have liked this and, here is the shock, I am seriously about to rid myself of my last Creed. I want something different and wearing Creeds mostly in summer for 4 or 5 years, maybe I am tiring of them. I sold my GIT and want to list my MI. I feel like taking a flyer on some Acqua di Parma, even if it does not last long as I like. I could get an atomizer and keep the atomizer at the office to refreshen at lunch. I also am thinking that Imperial Opoponax would not be as powdery or vanilla as say Yerbamate was on me.
In fact, I am gonna start a new thread.
I sold a bottle of GIT a couple of weeks ago. I have worn Creed GIT and MI religiously in summer and spring and fall for at least 4 to 5 years. Now, I just am not feeling wowed by MI anymore. Creed used to be my go to colognes when I wanted to feel all that. Now, I wear it when it is a paperwork day in the office, or maybe I am running errands Saturday afternoon. I wear LDDM or Fumerie when I want to go wow.
I sampled Acqua di Parma Colonia and Assoluta. THe Colonia smelled better, the Assoluta lasted longer. NIce summer scents. Bahiana sounds intriguing and Imperial Opoponax smelled good and so did Feuilles de Tabac. Maybe they don't last as long but maybe that is okay. I could get small atomizers, even plastic, and put them in a coat pocket to take to work, leave in a drawer, freshen up after lunch.
By the way, how does one go about changing the title of his thread in the swap section? Or can it not be done? I want to add MI and I did in the body but not in the title

Today, I met up with Jock With Scents, aka Barry. He offered to let me smell some of his collection. Very nice guy. I'll say that it was so neat to be able to have him describe a scent and then I could smell it and see what it was he was talking about. On a couple of them, I was able to detect the primary topnote before he would tell me. Now, from reading my posts, he was able to tell what I like and did not like and sure enough, I would smell something and it was one he said I would like. A few of my impressions:
CDG 88 8 - he had offered in the Frank post to let me smell that. Well, this was the one I really, really like. I had not considered the CDG line, as I had not seen it, or desired to read much about this. Let me say I am going to do a search on basenotes as soon as I type this out.
Eau de Italia? I dont know which one this is, but he let me try two. One was wintery and one was summery. The summery one lasted a while on my hand. Very nice. THis was one of those that you don't mind receiving it, but to spend your money on it, well, there may be a couple ahead of it.
Black Tourmaline - Beck, you were right. Smoke in a bottle. It may turn on the skin once it is on, and it felt like it would be a fall scent, but all I did was sniff it in the bottle.
SMN Acqua di Cuba - this is liquid leather. And this is the type of longevity and projection I would love. Im not a leather guy and he pegged me on this one.
Did I say I liked CDG 88 8?? LOL
Vintage Tabarome - he said it was the old man's tabacco and he was right. I had only smelled the New Tabarome locally and sorta liked it.
Santal Noble by MPG - nice enough, reminded me of the Eau Des Iles I had, with no coffee note. Eau des Iles lasted on my skin though
There were some others that may come to me. Oh, here is one. I had tried Hermes Eau d'Orange Verte in Sephora and it was nice but did not last. He had the Concentree and it lasted. If I want a fun summer cologne, say to wear on Saturday mornings kicking around, I am thinking it would be the Concentree or Acqua di Parma Colonia. I told him I might want both, but I am thinking one or the other. I do want to get some Imperial Opopponax for fall though
Barry, I can't thank you enough. Having read descriptions of some of them and then having them before me, it is so much easy to place a description in my mind that way. We also both have Tauer's L'Air du Desert Morocain as a great must-have scent, and CHergui as well.

Meeting another Basenoter and smelling fragrances face-to-face can be a lot of fun - I agree.
So Barry, when can I come and play at your house!?

Mike, Play? Hell, I wanna go shopping!!!!!!!
IT was Eau d'Italie that he let me try two of them. I had to go read up on rose scents and the Eau d'Italie Paestum Rose sounds so interesting. Czech & Speake #88 would be soapy. Id love for the Acqua di Parma Colonia to last longer, but who knows. It is either that or the Eau D'Orange Verte Concentree for summer, though I did order a tester of Calypso Tangerine Homme. I am thinking one of those, and the Imperial Oppoponax, and then maybe a special fragrance. I hope Beautyhabit had the Bahiana sample I asked for, and I did get Santal Noble, and the Calypso , and the Fougere Bengale , and MIller Harris Feuilles de Tabac (I thought this was a safe choice but that Comme des Garcons 8 88, while expensive, is very nice)
I smelled one that was whiskey, the name escapes me. It was a Montale. He had another one and that aoud note, I just cant get warmed up to it. I did tell Barry that if I have to warm up to a cologne, 90% of the time, Id never like it. If I like it on first application, 90% of the time, Ill love it. I felt that way with Chergui, Fumerie and Tauer LDDM. I did not feel that way about the Creeds I had, and, well, sold them. But I did wear them for 4 years, probably because the wife liked them.
Thanks finsfan. I enjoyed meeting another basenotes junkie for the first time. It was fun.
Mike, I would have to foreclose my home if you and I ever got together and went sniffing.
The frag that finsfan said had a whiskey note was Montale Patchouli Leaves, and Red Oud was the one with the oud note. The two from the Eau d'Italie line were Sienne l'Hiver and Bois d'Ombrie he sampled.
While I did point out that Vintage Tabarome was an older tobacco scent, it is personally one of my favorites (well I am old).
CDG 8 88 is an odd one, when I first received a sample, I was indifferent, but later, at Barneys, it was love instantly.
It was nice talking and sniffing with another person that understood the passion and curiousity that so many of us have for fragrance. Very cool. This just renews my wish that one day I can meet so many of you in person.
Barry, thanks for clarifying that Eau d'Italia. My wife preferred the summer one of all the scents on me. She felt the CDG was powdery. In fact, I am going to alter my swap thread to include that one. When my samples arrive, ones I dont like, I'll pm you and if you want them, great. I decided I am getting three scents now: one summer one, between the Eau d'Orange Verte Concentree or the Acqua di Parma Colonia or Assoluta; the Imperial Oppoponax for fall/winter, and then something totally new, maybe the Eau d'Italia, or Bahiana if I like that smell, or something.
Oh, and in Barry's top 6, I smelled them all. The Domenico scent, definitely one of the best I smelled. Also that Vetiver one was not bad. I probably should have tested that one out. Yet it would have to move me like a Lutens that I have now to get me to pay what I read that bottle cost. The one like turpentine, probably might smooth out? The D'Orsay was nice
1. MPG Bahiana - this is one where the descriptions say at Beautyhabit or on Makeupalley do not translate to my skin. I get the dried fruit reference but nothing stands out. Maybe if I was outside and the sweat activated it more, who knows. It stays close to the skin. I will think it is not particularly longlasting
2. Parfum D'Empire Fougere Bengale - Animal is right, but by golly, it is remarkably similar to a fragrance I wore years ago. Closer to the skin than what it appears it might be.
3. Calypso Tangerine Homme - I really liked this, not too tart, but interesting. Wonder how this one lasts compared to Eau D'Orange Verte Concentree. If they last about the same, this one is fresher and Id get this over the Hermes.
4. MPG Ambre Precieux - I can see where they say this is the epitome of Amber. A bit too sweet. I would prefer, and will get, Les Imperides Imperial Opopponax. Also close to the skin on me. Wonder how Calypso's Amber is since it is only $55 and 25% off at Beautyhabit?
5. Hotel Costes - Spicy, but nondescript to me. also, close to the skin, moreso than the TangerineHomme.
6. Feuilles de Tabac - Fresh tobacco and I remember this from last fall. Got to get a bottle of this. Projects the most of the samples I am listing
I also wore a sample of the Acqua di Parma Colonia. I liked this a lot, but alas, 30 minutes on my skin and I would have not smelt it. I sprayed it on my forearms, inner and outer, and could not detect it.
To me, I like the Miller Harris first, the Tangerine Homme second, and none of the rest.

Well, I have worn samples and have narrowed down a summer fragrance to these three and one wildcard I have not smelled
1. A cqua di Parma Assoluta (the Colonia did not last but 30 minutes)
2. Hermes Eau D Orange Verte Concentree (the regular lasted an hour)
3. Calypso Tangerine Homme
wildcard, not smelled, is Miller Harris Tangerine Verte.
I am thinking that one of the three above. Id like projection and long lasting. Ideas?
Calypso's Amber is nothing to write home about. I would rather get Cote Bastide's Amber. Much more interesting, and one of the best values out there!
Yeah, the Calypso Tangerine Homme lasted maybe 45 minutes. Feuilles de Tabac goes strong for about 2 hours. Acqua di Parma Assoluta lasted a good 4 hours, and the Ambre Precieux still lasts. Is it me, or are Ambre Precieux and Imperial Oppoponax very similar?
Fougere Bengale really lasted the longest. Hotel Costes, wow, I think I never really smelt it.
Was wondering if anyone thought this could be worn in hotter weather? It has been a while since I smelled it.

Well, with the sale, you have $90 to spend. Someone who has no scents (or sense) desires your opinion. You know nothing about them, other than they want something to wear to work, to last throughout the day, maybe take them to a casual dinner at 5:00 p.m. They want a list of five from you. Well, how do you respond?
Kind of a round-about way of saying "I have $90 to spend at beautyhabit and I need suggestions for everyday wear", don't you think?
I would respond by phone, email or in person.
It's quite easy to spend $90 if you add in deodorants and the like.
Burberry Brit
Armani Code
Terre d'Hermes (will eat up the $90 more quickly)
Angel Men/Hanae Mori/Le Male (test first)
Bulgari Aqua (for a summer fresh scent)
Those are what I'd recommend to someone just starting out.
Any Serge Lutens fragrance ($120 - 25% discount = $90).
In particular, I would suggest Gris Clair.

Lubin - Idole de Lubin Eau de Toilette - 75ml, Item 14701, $89.00

If the Egyptian people know what is right for them, they must vote for Adel Emam because this man is special and have goodness in his heart and can make the country develope and will not make anyone sleep without food.
Adel Emam , u r nothing to talk about Al baradi , if you have somehting keep it to ur self .
I have always had a lot of respect for Adel Emam, but to see him Supporting Mubarak and or his Son is very wrong.
I think that everyone is Egypt is so Scared and worried of what Mubarak could make of them. Egyptian are living more in fear now than when they were under the reign of the Pharaohs.
This is just my opinion I could be wrong.
