Read the May 2015 SRA Catalyst
This is the first in a series of Catalyst articles intended to highlight some of the major issues in the new Uniform Guidance, and also the ways in which Uniform Guidance impacts the research administrator's day-to-day operations. In this article, I will give a short summary of Uniform Guidance regulations and their rationales, and discuss specific points found in Subpart A – Acronyms and Definitions (2 CFR 200, §§200.0-200.99), Subpart B – General Provisions (2 CFR 200, §§200.100-200.113, and Subpart C – Pre-Federal Award Requirements and Contents of Federal Awards (2 CFR 200, §§200.200-200.211).

Uniform Guidance and its Impact
While there are some substantial changes in the implementation of the Office of Management of Budget (OMB) Uniform Guidance, overall many policies remain the same. Our focus here is on the underlying motivation behind the changes and enhanced compliance emphases. The reader will notice that internal controls are central to the Uniform Guidance. They are mentioned over 100 times! The emphasis on robust internal controls manifests itself in the Guidance as follows: Read more.

Sentences Containing 'admonish'
A few keyboard players played with the band after the reunion, but they could not commit to the band, and eventually Admonish ended up being without a keyboardist. Joel decided to leave the band for personal reasons.
A new guitarist, Samuel, was performed with the band in for Luccemetal. After that, Admonish regained its reputation in the Swedish metal scene.
Admonish is a Swedish black metal band formed in 1994.
Admonish performed at Elements of Rock, the biggest Christian metal festival in Europe in 2008.
Admonish went on a hiatus after the band ended on a situation where they could not focus fully on the band.

Because of their beliefs, Admonish has been a subject of controversy in the metal scene.
He concluded, "Therefor, I doe Admonish you, and alsoe charge you in the name of Ch[rist Jein whose place I stand...that you would sadly consider the just hand of God agaynst you, the great hurt you have done to the Churches, the great Dishonour you have brought to Je[sus Ch, and the Evell that you have done to many a poore soule."
If you come backward, and arguing from your inferred causes, conclude, that any other fact has existed, or will exist, in the course of nature, which may serve as a fuller display of particular attributes; I must admonish you, that you have departed from the method of reasoning, attached to the present subject, and have certainly added something to the attributes of the cause, beyond what appears in the effect; otherwise you could never, with tolerable sense or propriety, add anything to the effect, in order to render it more worthy of the cause.
In 1997 Admonish launched an official website and began to achieve a reputation in the metal underground.
Let thy reasonable faculty, work upon his reasonable faculty; show him his fault, admonish him.
Mattias had left Admonish as well, but Emanuel, Martin and Robin remained in the band.
On October 6, 2006, the twins Emil and Jonas Karlsson appeared on "Pimp My Ride International" in which they advertised Admonish and the band's music was played while the show host Lil Jon presented how the twins' Audi 80 was turned into a horror-themed luxury vehicle.
On that show, in which their car was modified, the twins advertised their band and Admonish's music was played.
So, Admonish, a joke band needing attention from a crap TV program to worm their way to the sun?
The band wrote new material, and Admonish was booked to play its first gig after the reunion at a festival called Luccemetal 2003.
The former Admonish member Per Sundström was also a guitar-player in Crimson Moonlight.
The recorded music of Admonish leans towards modern black metal with a focus on melodies.
This caused some debate in the metal underground and soon an anti-Admonish website was started.
When thou art hard to be stirred up and awaked out of thy sleep, admonish thyself and call to mind, that, to perform actions tending to the common good is that which thine own proper constitution, and that which the nature of man do require.
While the band did not release anything until 2005, the magazine "Metal Hammer" called Admonish "One of the leading Christian black metal bands" in a 1990s issue which focused on black metal. The band was not able to record a demo because of their line up changes: the vocalist Samuel left the band, and after Per moved from drums to guitar, Andre joined the band on drums but soon departed.

Register now for the 8th annual MobileBeat, July 13-14, where the best and brightest will be exploring the latest strategies and tactics in the mobile space. Google is allegedly working on creating a company-branded entertainment device capable of streaming music in multiple locations throughout a person's home. The information about the Google-branded device comes from a Wall Street Journal report that cites unnamed people briefed on the project. If true, it would mark the Google's first attempt at creating a hardware product without the aid of an electronics manufacturing partner. The search giant has historically concentrated its resources on developing web-based services, and more recently its open-source Android operating system software for mobile and streaming media devices. The report indicates that the device is being developed by Google's Android department, which has previously worked with consumer electronics companies HTC and Samsung on a Google-branded smartphone running a "pure" version of the Android OS. The report also states that the device would allow people to make purchases through the Android Market, which may not be restricted to just music—meaning video, podcasts, etc. In addition to the word-of-mouth rumors, there are several reasons to believe Google is indeed developing its own streaming device. Last week, an FCC application from Google was unearthed requesting permission to use an undisclosed new "entertainment device" in four major cities over the next six months. As I previously theorized, the data transfer process for the device described in the application would probably allow people to grab video or audio content from the Internet and then distribute it to all their other mobile devices or set-top boxes using Bluetooth technology. The benefit of this would be that people aren't exhausting their overall network or racking up expensive data charges from wireless carriers. Also, The timing of the news coincides with Google nearing approval from federal regulators on its acquisition of prominent consumer electronics company Motorola Mobility.

He spent all his life striving to spread the message of peace, non-violence and equality. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi's legacy lives on and is today celebrated even in pop culture — films, books, fashion and more. It is perceived as cool to indulge in 'Gandhigiri' today.
Several documentaries and films continue to be made on Gandhiji's life. Remember Richard Attenborough's Gandhi that fetched eight Academy Awards? Take the case of the latest addition, Gandhi to Hitler, that did a round of several film festivals across the world. Books — fiction, non-fiction and graphic novels — present his heroic tales. Fashion wise, you'd not be surprised to spot a guy on the streets wearing Gandhiji on his sleeves, literally.
Today, a souvenir shop, Eternal Gandhi, is slated to open its doors to the city dwellers. It will stock up Gandhiji-inspired wristwatches, statues of the iconic three monkeys, khadi shirts, mugs, bookmarks, key chains and pens, among other items.
"It is very relevant for the times we live in. There is strife and corruption today and it's tearing down the moral fabric of society. It is imperative for us to remember Gandhi's philosophy and teachings so that we can learn to live in harmony with one another," says Tony Valechha, founder of Peace Initiative, which handles the store's sales and marketing.
Designer Ritu Kumar will be showcasing her khadi bridal collection today for the same reason. "Khadi is one garment that ekes out livelihood for many. Remember Gandhiji working on his charkha? I've always backed the indigenous, so this seemed like a good time to showcase my khadi wear," stresses Ritu. To relive the Gandhian era, you can step into some malls where you can learn to spin a charkha, while gazing at a few grand ones on display.
Soon, in Munkee Man, a comic book by filmmaker Abhishek Sharma, the superhero 'Monkey Man' will be seen in conflict with the values that the iconic three monkeys stand for. Popular comic franchise Amar Chitra Katha justifies the need to churn more illustrative books on the political figure. "Gandhiji is one of the strongest figures in our freedom struggle and our aim is to tell stories of Indian heroes who can be role models for children.
When a child reads the story of Gandhi in this format, it is not just the words that stay with him but the pictures too," explains Reena I Puri, editor, Amar Chitra Katha.
Printed Gandhi captions and stencil tees are immensely popular with the young crowd and you can get such tees at Tantra and Inkfruit. And thanks to the recent Anna movement, his caps are once again a rage. Surely this is one topi that one wouldn't mind wearing at all!

Great Smog of 1952, London, England
The Great Smog, began on December 5, 1952, in London, England and lasted 4-5 days. It was one of London's most severe, if not the worst, air-pollution events. The city was very familiar with smog and therefore it wasn't seen as a concern in the first few days of the smog. The last major smog event, prior to this, was in December 1873 and saw the death rate increase by 40%.
Medical reports in the weeks following the event stated otherwise. People with chronic lung diseases had excess mortality and it is estimated that between 7,000 and 14,000 people died and many tens of thousands were made ill. There were many contributing factors to this event including cold weather, windless conditions and airborne pollutants such as coal, which has a high sulphur dioxide content. During The Great Smog, all forms of public transportation, apart from the London Underground, were cancelled. The paramedic service also stopped functioning, leaving many to try and get themselves to the hospital. The smoke even made its way indoors and as a result many events were cancelled.
Some sources say that it is the worst air-pollution event in the history of the United Kingdom. The Great Smog led to the implementation of the Clean Air Act of 1956.

The Polypropylene & Polyethylene have no complexity in side groups attached with main carbon chain, they do not have good strength and creep resistance because they have low glass transition temperaturez

The low-atranol oakmoss does not appear to be a totally satisfactory substitute?
There seem to be concerns that it lacks the complexity of the original substance - unsurprisingly.
It looks to me like the industry bought itself some time and breathing space on allergens. The industry and the EU turned a larger negotiation into a smaller, flexible standard on key substances - all allergens - that can be pinned down over the next few years. The non-key substances - most of IFRA - seem to be basically off the table. The EU is either accepting the IFRA standards, or not caring about things outside their focus. That part is clearly a win for self-regulation.
As you noted, there is going to be testing. It looks like the EU is saying that is the industry's responsibility, but if the industry can demonstrate non-allergenic levels on the "dirty dozen" (presumably capable of convincing EU scientists that they are as safe or safer than the more arbitrary 0.01% limit), then they can go with those. I appears to me that 0.01% was a reasonable cutoff - and the fact that it is reflected in labeling limits for wash-off products makes it seem fairly generous, if you take the hard line on allergies. Viewed by perfumers, however, those are probably scary, and that is the worrisome tone that slips into the reporting. It's like having your kid in some class where he may be smart, but could theoretically fail the exam. Perfumers whose works are on the line have to be biting their nails. Eugenol could end up with a higher limit, but it could end up defaulting to the 0.01% level. I agree - the documents are not terribly explicit about that point, because the consultation actually drops mention of the 0.01% value, and *TO ME* that appears to be intentionally vague. That was probably a point of negotiation, even if it's only psychological. Numbers have a type of undeserved permanence in discussions where flexibility might serve better, so getting the work product to not mention the value explicitly was a win for the industry. It leaves the baseline up for re-negotiation. If they can't get a good array of values for the dirty dozen, or only for some of them, then there may be excellent arguments that it should be 0.015% or something like that, so why set things in stone? Smart business on both sides to leave some room on that point. But still - where will the values ultimately fall? A value of 0.01% HAS to be scary, because it implies that about 9000 reformulations have to occur. And THAT is part of how they negotiated the nice lag times for implementation.
Honestly, after seeing how some of this fits together, I have to compliment people on working things out reasonably. The starting premise that fragrances cannot be allergenic is debatable on the social contract level, but if you proceed from that assumption, then the rest of it works out.
So to answer your question, TrimmTrabb, I simply have to make some speculative assumptions about the outcomes of testing. I think it's far easier to look at the worst-case scenario (9000+ fragrances reformulated to varying extents) and the rather unrealistic best-case scenario (clinical test are a shocker - we did not understand allergy science as well as we thought - current levels are ALL fine - ZERO changes). The value will be somewhere between 0 and ~9000. My guess is that the industry will gain some traction in testing, and the number will be in the thousands, with a few hundred being "significant" enough to demand rebranding, re-bottling, discontinuation, or a similar tactic.
I understand your question about specific levels of the dirty dozen - how those specific aroma chemicals would change from current IFRA standards to a new value (defaulting to 0.01%). I will look at that later. I have to get offline and do some chores, but it's a very interesting question, because it could give us some insight into actual changes in fragrances. It would be nice for somebody who already knows this to say something - and a few perfumers have spoken in generalities about citral, I know - but I suspect that a lot of them were instructed to keep mum while negotiations were going on, or longer.
All very fascinating, I have to admit. Not a lot of clear-cut answers, but still - fascinating.

Isn't history any kind of guide that can be used to measure the potential issues with fragrances? When has there ever been an allergy or significant reaction from fragrances that affected more than 0.01% of the population? Does anyone ever recall a scare where numerous people ended up in the hospital? These bans have been made upon ingredients that have been used without notable issue for many decades. Have any of these recent compound/note introductions raised medical concerns by any other entity/institution/organization? I don't see it.
I am really expecting that down the road, we'll find some kind of corruption going on with the EU Commission where their decisions are purposefully made with the deliberate intent to bring additional profit to various unreported benefactors.

At this point, I'm working up the courage to dig into those IFRA numbers. They have a great online database, but OMG - it verges on TMI !
I can explain this on a personal level. I'm slightly allergic to one of my favorite perfumes. If I wear it to bed, I will usually wake up with a stuffy nose and scratchy eyes. Nothing terrible - it certainly doesn't stop me from wearing it. I tend to wear it to bed less often now, or use less, or keep it away from my face. No big deal. Still, I occasionally get a stuffy nose from this one.
However, what if I was more of a hypochondriac, a complainer, or somebody with a personal injury lawyer on speed dial? That's where the industry has a valid motive. They say to themselves, let's just keep fragrance at the sub-allergic level, so it's never a real issue, and all those problems go away. People say "beauty products", and almost never have to worry about them. I have to be honest - the more I think about this problem, the more I'm led to believe that the high honchos in the industry made the right choice in making those "buy anywhere" fragrances sub-allergenic, or almost so. They are trying to fit everything under a wire that allows them to roll out a very desirable narrative: Our products never hurt anybody or any test animals. Beauty is innocent.
Can you blame the industry for wanting that? I'm certainly not going to. Judging from the folks around here, the very thought of skin discoloration from phototoxic components in very old fragrances is enough to send them running for the hills. People WANT their beauty products to be super-trustworthy. Even Basenoters do.
Now - there could be a demand for "special" fragrances that fall into a more allergenic category, where the buyer enters into a different social contract of personal responsibility. I actually like that idea. Edmond Roudnitska advocated keeping perfume off of skin for the fragrance's sake, and in the long run, that would have actually been better for the sake of fragrance as a whole, because the chypre would not have died based on skin allergies. But people love the idea of putting fragrance directly on their skin, and we will never change that, so there's no point in fighting it for mass fragrance. But there COULD be a class of historical fragrances - the old formulas - where the industry actually says "Listen to Roudnitska. Wear old fragrances in old ways. Wear them on cloth, a hanky, gloves or a locket. BE the [ expensive ] old-fashioned fragrance. If you wear it on skin, you're taking a chance." If we could change the ethic in that direction, it might actually be possible to bring back "old" fragrances in all their glory, and keep everybody happy.
I was thinking about all those old formulas that they have been showing off at Guerlain, that you can sniff in the mothership, but you can't take home. Are they pre-IFRA formulations? Are they attracting some interest? If they aren't, then it's probably not worth the effort, but if people are hooting and hollering about these historic beauties, then - hmmmmmm - sounds like some great test marketing results for the idea of historic fragrances. And THAT solves France's history problem. Actually, it more than solves it - it drives things positive. France NEEDS fragrance history. Not in the Osmothèque, but out in the wild where it stays part of culture and couture. If you can buy a bottle of "special" Chanel no.5 in 2121 or Shalimar in 2525, and they smell roughly like they did in history, THAT is really something. It's actually society's way of doing what Andy Warhol did - wear scents to lay down and then bring back memories of his own history. So in a weird way, we need to treat historic fragrances with more care, if we want to have them. Handling old scents that cause allergies is like reading old books filled with bad ideas from less enlightened but more opportune times. We shouldn't go back and delete those bad ideas - just treat them carefully. Sorry - I guess that's the librarian in me, getting carried away. Saving old books and old fragrances is just in my blood.
As for the EU and the companies - I understand your concern. Sometimes it's hard to tell corruption from cooperation and collaboration. In practice, it's actually very hard to keep one from segueing into the other. But I think you can rest easy here. I consider myself neither a hater nor a flack of the industry. But the report seems refreshingly honest to me, and I tend to think that there is far more cooperation than cronyism on this deal. One point in particular. There was a point in the 2011 report where they could have REALLY screwed the naturals people, by speculating that complex mixtures either compound or amplify the problems of the "dirty dozen". The writers of the report could have tried to pull exactly the kind of "synthetics over naturals" trick that they are routinely accused of doing. They didn't. Instead, they took the MOST naturals-friendly interpretation - to simply assume that interactions are benign, barring any evidence to the contrary, and to only look at the content of the regulated substances. To me, that shows good intent toward the small fry. I was very pleased when I saw that.
There is no doubt that government and industry are doing a dance here. But I think they're both trying to do the right thing for their constituencies, which are largely the same people. I also tend to believe that RIFM, IFRA, and EU scientists are playing a clean game. A certain amount of back-scratching is unavoidable - these companies are an important part of the EU. But an adversarial relationship hurts everybody, and it would probably give us a crummy solution in the end. Keep it honest, keep it open, and that way even if people disagree, those disagreements will be valid and open to being revisited.
^ You make a good point, about the lawsuit potential. I sometimes forget about how our societies have become so litigious. Part of the problem is the judges and magistrates, who ALLOW so many frivolous lawsuits to be processed. There is an inherent conflict of interest. A nice long backlog is JOB SECURITY, especially since there are FEDERAL HOURS that keep them from working overtime. They work their limited hours, go home, and enjoy a long respite before the next day. Lather, rinse, repeat until they collect a hefty retirement income.
So I can see it... fear of being sued by someone being inconvenienced with an allergic reaction that makes them miss an important business function, ultimately causing them to lose a "highly profitable" opportunity. If such unsubstantiated claims would be rapidly and consistently rebuffed/dismissed, then... wasting all of that money on lawyers suing every easy opportunity would impact their bottom line too much. And maybe they'd stop the nonsense.
Your other points are also interesting... but alas my fingers are too tired to respond with sufficient intellectual measure.

To anyone still reading this who is even remotely interested in knowing what a real chypre smells and feels like my advice would still be to look to the past - there is no clear cut off date but somewhere round mid 2000's is probably a safe bet. Earlier = better.
Me too. Not holding my breath. The history of the chypre will be interrupted at best.
I believe that in more 'open' compositions where the emphasis is on citrus, lighter floral and herbal notes with no serious base - i.e. an absence of balsamics, patchouli, vetiver etc. 'grounding' the fragrance (and thereby competing with and subsuming the use of oakmoss as a base fixative) that oakmoss can still play a part.
I imagine in the Jo Malone, and Eau de Guerlain, Granville and possibly L'Heure Fougueuse - all of which lean more towards a classic eau de cologne style (in terms of the ingredients) than a more robust perfume - that even a little oakmoss may add a hint of life because there's not a lot of competition.
In other words, it is possible that a ridiculously small amount of oakmoss in certain lighter styles of perfume is still better than none at all
Of course this could all just be wishful thinking on my part
When you smell some of the Guerlain Eaux de Colognes from a couple of decades ago (Vol de Nuit, Parure, Mitsouko) they have a heft to them that even current Eaux de Parfums and Parfums cannot muster. Back then EDC's were able to employ more oakmoss than current Parfums and even diluted at EDC proportions the shape and space of the thing was magnificent.

A knowledgeable and influential person within the perfume industry told me the best thing anyone can do is write to the perfume houses.
Thierry Wasser was talking about the possibility of finding a way to have a 'Heritage Line' or something similar a while back, and the subsequent public comments about how difficult it is to even obtain some of the original ingredients from growers were both exciting and frustrating but, ultimately, very tantalising.
Ulrik has kicked off some great reviews of the ones done so far and, yes, we have to ask 'why?'. My guess is that at the very least some form of semi-bespoke / private order may be possible at some point . . . and then let's see if there is something as simple as a held harmless agreement type of arrangement that will allow purchases of limited edition runs. It's all about volume and pricing, of course, but given the fact that Arnault is up in arms about the EU / IFRA directives (reportedly) then you have a nice confluence of the creative force at the worlds top perfume company and it's owner - i.e. the bean counters answer to this guy - that might offer the political clout to revive the artistic and historical importance of this stuff to France.
Let's hope so!
And yes, pluran, will put pen to paper - I imagine a few epistles might provide a bit more ammunition for the perfumers with policy makers etc.

As much as the oakmoss aspect is interesting, it's already happened.
For those wondering what's next, citral and limonene are used for citrus accords, while linalool is a compound found in rosewood, lavender & bergamot.
Base notes are the past. Now they're after the top notes.
I really wonder if the EUC and IFRA are mandated to provide scientific and medical evidence to support their legislation. If so, shouldn't this be publicly available somewhere? Anyone got a link?
Hurrah. The CEO of The Different Company, Luc Gabriel, is fighting back, per Grain de Musc. See here.
There's probably more recent stuff about allergens somewhere on their site. I'll keep digging. The new regs are also supposedly intended to protect reproductive health too. There should be some information considered about that on the site as well.

Meanwhile- there are some really tragic chemical scandals going on that are being completely overlooked and ignored. Does anyone REALLY care about public safety?
Dear friends,
The latest European regulatory provisions of February 13th concerning raw materials used in fine fragrance, if they are adopted, will sound the death knell of high perfumery within five years.
Essential natural ingredients such as rose, citral, tonka bean, ylang-ylang, will be banished or accepted in ridiculously weak proportions. Only chemical equivalents will be authorized.
And a chemical compound, however efficient it is, does not replace the olfactive vibration of a beautiful natural.
This is a futile issue, you say? Useless?
Beyond the complications it will entail for our brand and the entire sector, imagine a world without these notes. Imagine losing the memory of these emotions, these mementos, and most of all, imagine depriving future generation of this bit of humanity that cohorts of perfumers, creators, artisans, have allowed us to develop, to experience, to discover. A world without this sum of passions in the service of pure creations and of dreams, of conceiving a beautiful sillage, an exceptional juice; without an art that defines a share of our humanity just like music, gastronomy and laughter.
And if laughter increased the risk of having a stroke, would comedians also be banned?
Must the precautionary principle negate free will?
Some populations can't access the true taste of certain foods under the pretext of the precautionary principle. We are laying the groundwork that will make us go from a civilized world, with its share of animality and dreams, to a sterilized world in which humanity will become a mechanism, a lovely synthetic molecule like those we will be authorized to manipulate to create soulless fragrances.
And why will they be suppressed? Because of a public health issue or in the interest of those who produce synthetic molecules?
Are there any statistics demonstrating the mortal danger of using Chanel N°5 over the years?
I am more than outraged, and this goes far beyond my personal interest for my company's continued existence, it is a warning call that must carry, an infinite sadness that must turn into revolt.
Europe will be killing part of its memory and contribution to the beauty of the world.
There is still time, the matter will be under consultation for three months by the European Commission Directorate General Health and Consumers, but it urgent to communicate, to act, to lobby.Through your activities and your social circle, you may have access to opinion leaders, intellectuals, physicians, researchers, politicians, designers, company directors.
So get the message across, even once, even in thirty seconds. I am willing to meet them, to explain, to discuss it.
At the Esxence fair in Milan in March, I will try to federate the voices of perfumers and brands like The Different Company. But the profession is often secretive, withdrawn, shy.
One brand took on the slogan "Perfume is dead, long live perfume". No, perfume will just be dead, taking part of us with it.
original article found at http://graindemusc.blogspot.com/
....what a nightmare this is going to be; the only good outcome for this is that I will not buy another $200 perfume with the implementation of the rule; perfume at most will cost $20 will the exclusion of high price natural essential oils and everything will smell the same

I did my part and email some fragrance houses to do their part! If this regulation will push through, I will not use any fragrances anymore and let the perfume industry die on its own.

When was the last time the IFRA police issued a ban to retail stores not to sell a given fragrance? Or an IFRA police team raided a perfumery accused of using banned ingredients? Or more plausibly, the IFRA issuing a public warning about perfumeries that have been caught violating their stated bans? I've never seen a stamp on a fragrance package that says "IFRA compliant". Just how is this ENFORCED?
We see so many different aspects of society where companies "conditionally" abide by regulations and get away with it. Are fragrance companies not confident in their own product testing, instead deferring to the IFRA regulations? Why can't they make a disclaimer on a fragrance about the potential allergenic constituents, much the way the food industry warns everyone that "this product may contain nuts"?
Forgive me, I am naive on the subject. I just don't understand all of this "fear" that seems attributed.
well, you can also write an email to
[email protected]
Header: Fragrance allergens - Public Consultation
tell them what you think as a consumer but i would suggest to stay polite
I think the EU is more likely to be influenced by input from their constituents than by persons from non-EU countries, so it is especially important that EU citizens use their voice if they disagree with what has been announced as likely to happen this week.
Please pardon my ignorance on the way things work in the EU, but I imagine there are procedures in place that allow oppty for public input via hearings, written arguments, etc. It's seems likely to me the deadline for such input has expired. The media coverage suggest this is a done deal. Requests that a final decision be postponed to allow more input, in consideration of recent increased public awareness and concern, might be wise at this point.
Deadline: May 14th
worth a try, i would guess they are used to recieve emails from consumers complaining or communicating their opinion directly to the Directorate General
In any case... there are many processed food products with warnings about "may contain nuts" or was "created in a facility that processes nuts", which don't seem to detract at all from sales. Cigarettes have had cancer warnings on their labels for years with little impact on their sales, at least not until more medical evidence was unearthed, in addition to indictments of tobacco companies for hiding evidence of unhealthy side effects. So a small imprinting on the fragrance package is all that is needed. I seriously don't think this will scare off purchases.
I think the IFRA does some good with respect to the preservation of rare natural materials that have been over exploited. To me, that should be their primary function. And yes, if a given oil is identified for possibly incurring rashes for 1% or more of the population, then definitely ban the use. Otherwise... let the buyer decide.
If Renato's vision comes to pass I will gladly join Kaern in the woods.
Ban Eugenol and Coumarin? That writes off at least 80% of the frags I own made in the last 20 years. If the future is doomed to smell like Febreze I will do the unforgivable and cut off my own nose.
"Strange things are afoot. I am one of them and I am up to another." -*^-'._.'-^*- - S.B.
I am thoroughly discouraged. I doubt any of these EU officials give a flying fig what some perfume-lover in Nebraska (Nebraska? Is that even on this planet?) thinks about their actions.
"Most GPs (general practitioners, primary care physicians) in Western Europe, North America and Australia say the number of people diagnosed each year with eczema is has been rising in recent years."
"Experts say that people with eczema are born with it - it is a genetically inherited condition. It can be worsened with exposure to external or environmental factors such as pollen or pet fur, and internal factors such as hormone levels and stress."
I wonder if the rate of eczema increase is proportionate to the population increase. Otherwise... it's about environmental triggers causing it in people with the genetic predisposition. Also... once triggered, you can't put it back in remission. It becomes a chronic condition that needs to be controlled. So the medical community is concerned with minimizing the triggers for those who are vulnerable. If certain fragrance ingredients increase the triggers then... I can understand their need to ban.
We're also faced with the lack of data... regarding the past. Who knows how many people contracted eczema from fragrance related exposure? Certainly newspapers weren't going about reporting these. Just because we didn't hear about any reports doesn't mean they didn't happen.
I like Redneck Perfumisto's suggestion (and Edmond Rounitska's idea) about wearing perfume on clothes. Perhaps the houses should come up with a non-dermal product, kind like of room sprays, but dedicated to clothes. This could allow us to literally wear perfumes containing all these sensitising ingredients.
Meanwhile, there are some weird things happening already. I could be totally wrong on this and would hate to instill any paranoia, but just hear me out )
It looks like Burberry London and YSL's La Nuit are being messed with RIGHT NOW. London is pretty heavy on opoponax which is rumored to get banned. It also has some lavender and is fixed with oakmoss. It is not on Burberrys website anymore. Amazon still has it, but what's remarkable is that they sell it full list price, not a penny discounted. When do they ever do that?
Second observation - La Nuit de l'homme, heavy on lavender and coumarin, seems harder to come by nowadays as well. I was trying to buy a big bottle the other day - it was sold out in Nordstrom, Sephora had just ONE small bottle left in stock and it is not available on amazon directly (not counting 3rd parties). I did buy a bottle from Macys that day but I have to admit I was surprised I had to do multiple stops in order to make that purchase. I always remembered this scent as something that the shelves were always well stocked with...
Maybe I am connecting the dots that arent there, but who knows.. At the very least, all of this looks like noticeable disruptions in supply chains so a closer look may be advised...
I think it was Tania Sanchez who said, several years ago in 'The Guide', something along the lines of:
"If you find something you really like, buy an extra one because it may not be the same tomorrow".
More true now than ever.
"Dear European Commission,
I am very sad to see upcomming regulation in using of 3 ingredients that are large part of majority of current perfumes. For a fragrance lover and collector (who buys much more fragrances than your average consumer) this is the end of my fragrance journey and end of my hobby. It is sad to see that you've choosed to ban few ingredients that can be dangerous to maybe 1% of population instead of puting warning labels on boxes. It is sad to see that while you allow selling of cigarettes which have much more dangerous impact on smokers and non smokers, you want destroy many fragrances that we people and consumers loved. It is sad to see that you might be willing to take a chance to contaminate european land with GMO plants (from USA with transatlantic agreement) and risk people health with GMO food (which still is not proved to be safe) but does not hestitate to forbid things that are from our mother earth and with much less impact on general public. I am very disappointed with this new regulations and as a fragrance lover, and a lover of real things from our nature (not some artificial synthetics made by companies which have huge profit from it) I will definitely not support this international companies by buying new soulless fragrances made from few selected synthetics made by few selected companies...

I also don't buy that it's 1% of the population for which these ingredients are dangerous. More like 1% of the population where it is inconvenient (a simple rash that goes away with disuse). But maybe 5% of that 1% can develop contact eczema, which is a nasty business. This has been shown to happen with other ingredients that have been banned over the years, but the latest round casts a lot of doubt. Coumarin hasn't been medically confirmed to cause eczema. The claim is not substantiated with medical data as yet. This is based on the document linked previously.
Where the "fault" lies is regarding communication to the consumer. People who are genetically predisposed to contract eczema need to be aware of their condition and to take precautions. Such people should feel confident to use fragrances stamped with "IFRA approved" (long overdue for having this) and avoid those that don't have this certification. For those who don't have a tendency to get rashes and aren't predisposed to contracting eczema, they don't need to pay attention to this... which is a significant majority of the population (99%).

Who cares if he used a spell checker, the message is clear. And, unlike many others, he actually acted on it. Good job, dreamer81.
Narrow minded? I'm just pointing out a basic thing that can be done. It helps make a message look more professional. I was not trying to insult you.
But if that's how it's going to be here, that a tag-team starts happening to make it look like I'm the bad guy then I'll just get out of this special clique and move on. Good bye.
Oh, dear, let's not start fighting amongst ourselves. Divided we fall, for sure.
Please stick to the topic guys - we were discussing EU regulations.
No one has commented on my complaint about the use of 'the patch'. It is placed over the sample which is placed on skin. Thus extending the exposure time. Perfume, when used as intended- air dries in a few minutes.
I wonder if we pointed out this discrepancy if it would do some good.
I'm just not clear on why the patch is necessary. It appears the study is designed to amplify exposure to infinitesimal amounts of substance- oak moss, for instance.
It would be interesting to find out what alternatives to banning were considered (for example labeling so that the consumer may make an informed choice to avoid exposure to a particular ingredient) and especially: why those alternatives were rejected.
I smell conspiracy. Follow the money. Someone is benefitting here and it ain't us.
This is an interesting blog post
I had no idea the 'tests' were so hamfisted - it's a joke.
This blog and the article are from Somerville Metro Man, BTW, who used to contribute a lot of insight and good vibes to Basenotes when I first joined - great he has a new blog space
I hate those dam people. I just want a perfume house with some balls to create a fragrance with every banned ingredient and call it "BANNED" - "For when your not afraid to smell good"

Whether through microtransactions or loot drops, getting that special hat or extra-sparkly pair of pants allows players to put their personal stamp on a character, without giving them a gameplay advantage.
Some games let players customize their character (or characters). Degree of customization may vary, with some games simply allowing to choose between different types of clothes, while others provide more detailed tinkering of features such as the distance between a character's eyes or hair color.

LONDON, England (WGGB) — A video of the Queen's Guard playing the "Game of Thrones" theme song went viral over the weekend.
The guards are seen performing a perfect rendition of the song outside of Buckingham Palace.
Queen Elizabeth may have refused to sit on the iron throne when she visited the popular HBO show, but she's not above having her guards play the theme song.

Updated info for this post can now be found in teched. Please disregard this blog entry. Please refer to http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg398833.aspx
Recently I was onsite with a customer and was asked about DNS Load Balancing. How does it work? Why the change from OCS 2007 R2?
DNS Load Balancing
Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 requires a Hardware Load Balancer (HLB) to provide resilience for the Enterprise pool. This configuration is both expensive and difficult to configure for SIP load balancing. Lync 2010 introduces DNS load balancing as an alternative to hardware load balancing.
How it Works
The front-end servers register their fully qualified domain name (FQDN) as A records in DNS. When the Enterprise pool is created, the pool FQDN is registered to return from DNS the list of IP addresses of all the front-end servers. The client attempts to connect to one of the IP addresses that were returned. If this connection fails, the client attempts to connect to the next IP address in the list until the connection succeeds.
Server Failure and Recovery
When a server fails, the physical registrar sequence is updated to show the server as unavailable and shared amongst all surviving servers by using a server-server heartbeat. Users are redirected to the next server in their logical registrar sequence and are then connected in backup mode. The server will be recovered returning the physical registrar sequence back to its original state.
Server Commission and Decommission
When topology changes occur, the logical registrar sequence is recalculated for all users. Some users are re-homed to a different front-end server in the same pool. When the server is fully operational, the heartbeat process updates the physical registrar sequence. This results in the batched re-registration process. Decommission is very similar to server failure, with the exception of the re-home to a new primary registrar being part of the decommission process. The topology change results in the recalculation of the logical registrar sequence. This step doesn't happen in a server failure.
You can use DNS load balancing for the SIP traffic on Front End pools and Director pools. With DNS load balancing deployed, you still need to also use hardware load balancers for these pools, but only for HTTP and Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM) traffic. The hardware load balancer is used for HTTP traffic from clients over ports 443 and 80, and for DCOM traffic over port 135 from administrators performing user moves.
Although you still need hardware load balancers for these pools, their setup and administration will be primarily for HTTP traffic, which the administrators of hardware load balancers are accustomed to.
DNS Load Balancing Decision Guidelines
DNS load balancing supported?
DNS load balancing recommended?
Hardware load balancer (only) recommended?
All or most users homed in the pool run Lync Server 2010 clients.
Many users homed in the pool still running older clients.
Interoperates only with other Lync Server 2010 servers.
Interoperates with many servers running earlier versions of Office Communications Server.
Running Exchange UM with Exchange 2010 SP1 (or not running Exchange UM)
Running Exchange UM with earlier versions of Exchange
Before you can use DNS load balancing, you must:
1. From the Lync Server 2010 program group, open Topology Builder.
2. From the console tree, expand the Enterprise Edition Front End pools node.
3. Right-click the pool, click Edit Properties, and then click Web Services.
4. Below Internal web services, select the Override FQDN check box.
5. Type the pool FQDN that resolves to the physical IP addresses of the servers in the pool.
6. Below External web services, type the external pool FQDN that resolves to the virtual IP addresses of the pool, and then click OK.
7. From the console tree, select Lync Server 2010 , and then in the Actions pane, click Publish Topology.
1. For each Front End Server in your pool, create a DNS A Host record that maps the pool FQDN to the IP address of that Front End Server.
For example, if you had a pool named pool1.contoso.edu and three front-end servers, you would create the following DNS entries:
Host A
Server Draining
A new feature called server draining enables you to take a server offline without any loss of service to users. When a server is drained it stops taking new connections and calls. These new connections and calls are routed through other servers in the pool. A server being drained allows its sessions on existing connections to continue until they naturally end. When all existing sessions have ended, the server is ready to be taken offline.
so can I only use dns load balancing for 2 front end server???
and If not, what is the other alternative for the hardware load balancer??
DNS LB can be used for all Lync traffic except Web and DCOM which will require a HW load balancer.
Does the Mac Communicator 2011 client support DNS Load Balancing? That is a significant design consideration one way or the other, that seems to be inadequately documented. Having to HLB just because of the Mac would be unfortunate. Please tell me that it supports DNS LB....
I have not seen that it would not work for Mac users. Mac clients would hit DNS in the same manner as PC clients.
IN regards to needing an HLB for HTTP and DCOM traffic. We are currently using TMG for HTTP traffic. Would that work for HTTP traffic?

tsunami, ( Japanese: "harbour wave") also called seismic sea wave or tidal wave, catastrophic ocean wave, usually caused by a submarine earthquake, by an underwater or coastal landslide, or by the eruption of a volcano. The term tidal wave is frequently used for such a wave, but it is a misnomer, for the wave has no connection with the tides.
Origin and development
After an earthquake or other generating impulse occurs, a train of simple, progressive oscillatory waves is propagated great distances over the ocean surface in ever-widening circles, much like the waves produced by a pebble falling into a shallow pool. In deep water a tsunami can travel as fast as 800 km (500 miles) per hour. The wavelengths are enormous, about 100 to 200 km (60 to 120 miles), but the wave amplitudes (heights) are very small, only about 30 to 60 cm (1 to 2 feet). The waves' periods (the lengths of time for successive crests or troughs to pass a single point) are very long, varying from five minutes to more than an hour. These long periods, coupled with the extremely low steepness of the waves, enables them to be completely obscured in deep water by normal wind waves and swell. A ship on the high seas experiences the passage of a tsunami as an insignificant rise and fall of only half a metre (1.6 feet), lasting from five minutes to an hour or more.
As the waves approach the coast of a continent, however, friction with the rising sea bottom reduces the velocity of the waves. As the velocity lessens, the wavelengths become shortened and the wave amplitudes increase. Coastal waters may rise as high as 30 metres (about 100 feet) above normal sea level in 10 to 15 minutes. By a poorly understood process, the continental shelf waters begin to oscillate after the rise in sea level. Between three and five major oscillations generate most of the damage, frequently appearing as powerful "run-ups" of rushing water that uproot trees, pull buildings off their foundations, carry boats far inshore, and wash away entire beaches, peninsulas, and other low-lying coastal formations. Frequently the succeeding outflow of water is just as destructive as the run-up or even more so. In any case, oscillations may continue for several days until the ocean surface reaches equilibrium.
Much like any other water waves, tsunamis are reflected and refracted by the topography of the seafloor near shore and by the configuration of a coastline. As a result, their effects vary widely from place to place. Occasionally, the first arrival of a tsunami at a coast may be the trough of the wave, in which case the water recedes and exposes the shallow seafloor. Such an occurrence took place in the bay of Lisbon, Portugal, on November 1, 1755, after a large earthquake; many curious people were attracted to the bay floor, and a large number of them were drowned by the wave crest that followed the trough only minutes later (see Lisbon earthquake of 1755).

Dear Peggy: I've heard so much about food allergies. Are milk allergies common? —A.W., Middleton, Wisconsin
They're not as common as you might believe. Many people who think they have a milk allergy are actually lactose-intolerant. With a milk allergy, the body can't handle casein and other protein components in milk. The immune system starts working, causing a reaction.
With lactose intolerance, the body can't easily digest the sugar, or lactose, in milk. The body doesn't produce enough lactase, the enzyme that digests lactose. This results in varying degrees of digestive discomfort.
Indulgence no longer has to feel guilty. Go ahead, treat yourself!
