Your post title "Your fragrance should match your personality!" suggests that your actual post will be about personality and not age.
You then make a statement but don't clarify how you're inviting comment.
In a nutshell: "What's your point?"...
im starting to think that what fragrance you choose to wear should match the type of person you are. i hate to say this but shouldnt your fragrance be an accessory to your clothes and personality regardless if it's a masterpiece or not?
i mean i might be insecure but i dont want to smell like an old man or a woman, no offence to old men or women. it seems like a lot of people here talk about certain fragrances as if there the best thing since pants with pockets and i think to myself "are u a 47 year old woman?"
if your 25 and you smell like my grandmas purse because the fragrances reviews or reputation than thats on you but im not going to.
edit: i no longer think this. thank you slushiex for that a-ha moment and grotola too. you guys are the real reason basenotes is still active.

I think I get what you were trying to say Dixon and I agree to a point. You wouldn't normally associate powerful and peppery fragrances with a guy who chills on the beach and catches some rays, but then again, he might rule the night scene and such a scent would fit perfectly in that mood.. I think people are so multifaceted and so dimensional that different scents work for different aspects of a persons nature.
The subject of fragrances are completely subjective, no doubt about that. What is interested to me is what elements people find themselves drawn to in fragrances. This might be conceived as creating a fragrance profile or a fragrance personality for yourself. Mine seems to be stuck in the 17th century. I guess that makes me an old man.
- Expect the unexpected
Thierry Mugler seems to fit my personality in general. Something about those fragrances are just ME.
I think you associate some smells with a group of people, because in YOUR life you smelled those smells/notes on those specific people.
If your mother wore Le Male (yeah I swear some women wear it) since its launching, maybe you would say it's a very feminine frag.
ok i just used old men and women as an example but i mean the same could be said about a tough looking guy with a feminine fragrance. or anything with patchouli in it and someone with style, jk.

It's not about reputation or reviews. You should wear what you enjoy.
you can wear whatever you want but just because i like the smell of my grandmas purse that doesn't mean i want to smell like it

I don't let my decision making get to complicted....if it smells good, particularly on me, and it's within budget I buy. Sure, my mood certainly will influence what I may wear at the time.
One of benefits of getting older is you tend to care less and less what others think, and more inclined to please yourself rather than looking for approval from others.

(said with an evil smile while sniffing my ancient 40 year old self)
I wonder which part of my personality and life experience (us old folks tend to have quite a bit of that) should match my fragrance choices. Maybe that's why manyof us amassed such huge collections
can you imagine a 16 year old school girl wearing 10 sprays of kouros on her first date? lmao
i know an old man that smells like piss and he could careless what people think. i give him major props tho
Dixon, i understand what you are saying that fragrances sometime have certain vibes to it, and yes imo some frags do seem to fit more than others, but i feel also that, for the most part ANYONE can pull off almost every fragrance as long as they have the confidence too. Anyone can adapt to different auras also (if you get what i mean by auras).
however all in all, who really cares? If you like a fragrances go wear it, go buy it, go smell it, do whatever you like with it. Old man or not, you like it wear it. Don't care too much about what others think. Sometimes, thats the best way to get attention anyway if you want something that will be memorable.
Dixon kid, STOP pigeonholing the world. Scratch those silly labels and wear what pleases you. Perfume aficionados don't give a flying squirrel what the other unknowing multitude think of their smell. You gotta lot to learn.

Of course we wear certain fragrances often because they "fit" us. A "signature" scent, one that fits us perfectly and compliments our personalities.
However, the fragrance world is full of beautiful smells that are wonderful, and a fragrance connoisseur may not give a damn about the psychological or social aspects of the fragrance and just enjoy the fact that it smells wonderful, and they love being in possession of a bottle and being able to wear it.
I love Encre Noire, but I don't think a bonfire of vetiver describes my personality. Why would I want to be described in a scent, other than, "you smell nice"?
Why would I want to be described and predictable at all? People knowing you and loving you is one thing, but people KNOWING you, a very shallow, one-dimension person? Just one fragrance? That "Stetson" man? Part of the excitement in this fragrance hobby that brings us all together on this site, I think, is smelling new fragrances, and striking gold on a good one. It may not be your spouse, but it could happily become a new friend.

I think there's a distinction, too, between wearing a fragrance as communication, versus wearing it for your own pleasure. People often wear clothes as communication--they're concerned about others' reaction to the clothes. On the other hand, they usually eat food for their own pleasure. (Or, if they sometimes worry about what "message" their food choices send at a restaurant, they'll at least choose food for their own pleasure at home.)
For me, fragrance is more like food than clothes. I usually choose fragrance because I like to smell it. I sometimes choose fragrance as a sort of costume or mood-builder, like children playing dressup or a person who wears his lucky socks. Only rarely do I choose fragrance based on the impression that it will give others.
I think its all societal bias, girls wear flowery stuff, guys wear nothing or stuff so light it doesn't matter. On Basenotes we ignore these "standards", but that does not change the fact they exist. Sorry, we're an extreme minority, and there is NO chance of us changing anything. I do see a movement towards guys wearing fragrances, but I don't see it being like Eastern cultures where perfumes are 10% of the atmosphere (I wish it was like that )
Personally, I use scents as an accessory though there are times I wear them just to indulge my whims. If fragrances are to match our personality, I think many fragrance houses will go out of business. New fragrance purchases will only be made by those with personality disorders, lol. Perhaps we should wear fragrances that match our guts?
But I do agree that certain scents wear better on certain people but not others. Why don't you tell us which fragrance best describes your personality? Btw age is not = personality.
Everything I wear, everything I like, everything I'm trying out expresses my personality. That's because I like the smell(s), so whatever I'm wearing--and liking I guess--matches my personality.
So unless one wears things one dislikes (lucky we are that one doesn't need to) I take it as a truism that a fragrance matches a personality. And matches a personality rather than a purse. One has to think of it as an expression of what the wearer likes and feels about his/her aura, not a matching of judgmental or preconceived pigeon holes. I don't mean to beat a dead horse or inflame anything with the harsh words "judgmental" and "preconceived" in the last sentence, I just use them to help us think about the way things are thought about.
That girl, that bottle, that mattress and me.
Most personalities have different facets, and different perfumes to suit them (if the person likes). Then there are the personality traits we WANT to project; strength calls for one scent, frivolity another, a third for sexy time.
Probably we all have some scents that are unlikely to suit us in any facet (there is nothing about me that speaks to Pink Sugar!). For the OP, that may be vintage or floral scents, for others the scents like Dad wore, still others foody gourmand nose snacks.
To each his and her own, but in the end yes, personality and perfume are tied together.
My Top 10*:
1. Bois des Iles (Chanel)
2. Ubar (Amouage)
3. Pandora (DSH)
4. Miss Dior - vintage (Dior)
5. Jolie Madame (Balmain)
6. Jicky (Guerlain)
7. Gold Woman (Amouage)
8. Mata Hari (DSH)
9. L'Air du Desert Moracain (Tauer)
10. Medici - Italian Splendor: Florence (DSH)

New Saudi rules set rights for domestic workers
More News from Agence France-Presse
RIYADH—Saudi Arabia has announced new rules to protect the rights of foreign domestic workers, most of whom are from South Asia, but stressed they must "respect" Islam and "obey" their employers.
Labor Minister Adel Faqih said the new rules require employers to pay workers "the agreed monthly salary without delay, and give them a day off each week," in remarks carried by the official SPA news agency.
Employers are also required to provide domestic workers with "suitable accommodations, as well as granting them time to rest for at least nine hours each day," Faqih said.
Under the new guidelines, workers are entitled to paid sick leave and a one-month paid vacation after putting in two years of work as well as end of service compensation equal to one month salary after four years, he said.
But Faqih also insisted that employees must respect "Islam and its teachings… and obey the orders of the employers and their family members concerning getting the agreed work done."
A domestic worker "does not have the right to reject a work, or leave a job, without a valid reason," he added.
Around eight million foreign workers are employed in the oil-rich kingdom, with most of them coming from South Asia and earning low wages. The number of domestic workers is not available.
In June the Philippines said it had signed a landmark agreement with Saudi Arabia that would protect thousands of Filipina maids from being exploited in the kingdom.
The agreement followed a row that erupted in 2011 when the Philippines insisted on a minimum wage of $400 a month for its maids among other measures.

Jurassic Park is based on a novel by Michael Crichton. It is based on an island west of Costa Rica in an amusement park. The amusement park is a novelty; something that has never been seen before. It is basically a safari, where the wild animals are, in fact, dinosaurs. Hammond, the owner of the island, has found dinosaur DNA and has used this to create living, breathing animals. A group of people, including a chaotician, an archaeologist and a paleobotanist have come to the island to observe what the island is about and submit an opinion on whether the island is safe for humans. They agree and set out on their tour of the island.
After the initial tour of the island, almost every member of the party is convinced that the park is amazing, but each person also has a small problem with the park. Ian, the chaotician, is worried about the dinosaurs' being able to breed. The paleobotanist is worried about the plants on the island, some of which are poisonous. Hammond dismisses their concerns and insists on everyone going on another tour the next day.
While everyone, including Hammond's grandchildren, are out on their second tour, the electricity and computers are disabled and the dinosaurs get loose. This is when the real action of the movie begins. When the dinosaurs get loose, most everyone is in the park trying to get back to the main building, and because of this they are loose in the park with no protection from the dinosaurs.
Two of the most heartwarming parts of the movies are when Alan gets to see the dinosaurs up close and personal. At one point, he gets to hold a baby velociraptor. This is designed to allow the audience to connect with the dinosaurs, and even sympathize with them. They are dangerous animals, and should never be allowed to run free, but at the same time, they are animals out of time, and are only acting by instinct. Having humans in their man-made habitat is dangerous. Every human on the island must work together to survive these magnificent animals, and escape the island alive.
It's "third time's a charm" for "Jurassic Park" actor Jeff Goldblum. He has popped the question to his girlfriend of two years, and she (emphatically) has said YES. Emilie Livingston, 31, bragged the news on her Twitter over the weekend, sharing the hashtag-laced announcement along with a picture of her and Goldblum, 61, embracing. "Jul 8 he proposed @ our fav #okstore. I was taken over by tears of joy n ecstasy! We picked the ring 2gether #inlove." The pair then flew to Maui for a romantic vacation, and she showed off the ring as she stood beside Haleakala, a dormant volcano.
Though it has been hibernating long enough that the world thought it was extinct, "Jurassic Park 4" is springing back to life with an official director. Colin Trevorrow will be bringing us the fourth installment of the dinosaur flicks. It is a pretty serious promotion for Trevorrow, whose only other directed film was "Safety Not Guaranteed." The quirky flick earned him a nomination for an Independent Spirit Award for Best First Feature. Apparently, despite his short resume, the studio and attached filmmakers think Trevorrow is a great match for the flick.
"Jurassic World" is either going to be the best movie ever, or the dumbest. If JoBlo is to be trusted (and when it comes to leaked plot details, it usually is), we know a few small details about the upcoming "Jurassic Park" reboot, "Jurassic World." And they're...different. Here's how the article describes one of the new dino creatures: "They splice together a T-Rex, raptor, snake, and cuttlefish to create a monstrous new dino that, of course, gets loose and terrorizes the park.
Scary! Being a celebrity certainly does have its downfalls. Paparazzi, stalkers… you know, the usual. Jeff Goldblum is one of the man celebs who would be happy to fill you in. Last night his own personal stalker was arrested for violating her restraining order. Linda Ransom has been harassing the "Jurassic Park" star for more than ten years according to Goldblum. She would follow him constantly, in public, or showing up at his house uninvited, or appearing multiple times to watch his stage performances in New York or Los Angeles.
Hurricane Sandy is the villain of the day – causing millions of people to evacuate their homes along the East Coast. As the country braces itself for the worst, we are reminded once again that Mother Nature is one little lady you don't want to piss off. Don't believe me? Revisit these tempest tales and be glad you are warm and cozy on your couch. 1. The Wizard of Oz (1939)- Dorothy Gale's world is turned upside down - literally - when a Kansas twister picks up her and her house and drops her in the land of Oz.
We already knew that the seed of an idea had been planted in Steven Spielberg's head, but now it's official: "Jurassic Park" is about to get a re-release in 3D. Spielberg had mentioned some of his regrets over editing "ET" last year, so it was safe to assume that he wasn't interested in messing with any of his other movies (unlike his colleague George Lucas). But he did mention that a 3D re-release of "Jurassic Park" might be the exception... and here it is.
Producer Frank Marshall recently confirmed to Collider that the long-rumored fourth "Jurassic Park" entry has a tentative ballpark timeframe. Marshall was stumping for another major sequel to which he's attached, next month's "The Bourne Legacy" starring Jeremy Renner, when he claimed "it will be on the screen within two years." Unsurprisingly calling it a "popcorn movie," Universal Pictures is for now shooting for a summer release, Marshall elaborated.

For what felt like the majority of the regular season, Los Angeles Kings' defenseman Jake Muzzin seemed to be nothing less than a defensive liability for his team. Whenever the opposing team scored, yours truly usually quipped that Muzzin must have been on the ice. Of course, such treatment of the 25-year-old was, to say the leasy, unfair. After all, in only his second full season with the Kings, Muzzin looked generally more comfortable with each passing game.
In 76 games this past season, Muzzin scored five goals and added 19 assists, with five of his 24 points coming on the power play. As for status as a defensive liability, his +8 rating may beg to differ. A former draft pick of the Pittsburgh Penguins, Jake Muzzin also registered 175 shots, second among Los Angeles defensemen behind Drew Doughty's 177, third in hits with 169 and fourth in blocked shots with 82.
In the playoffs, the native of Woodstock, Ontario, only seemed to get better.
Muzzin's six goals led all Kings' defenseman while his 12 points placed him second behind the aforementioned Doughty. In fact, half of Muzzin's postseason points came on the power play with three of them counting for goals. Muzzin also further quieted those skeptics who thought he was a defensive liability by racking up a +6 rating and was even well-disciplined, committing just eight penalty minutes.
Also in the playoffs, Jake Muzzin played in each of Los Angeles's 26 games en route to the Stanley Cup, logging an averaging of 23:23 of ice time per outing, which was over four minutes more than his average during the regular season.
Also, like in the regular season, Muzzin was not afraid to use his 6' 3, 213-pound frame to his advantage as he dished out 74 hits (second only to Slava Voynov) while showing off his defensive muscle, blocking 51 shots.
He may still make a costly mistake here and there that will cost his team a goal but overall Jake Muzzin has come into his own as an ideal player for a defense as stingy as that of the Los Angeles Kings. If this were early in the season, Jake Muzzin may have received a low grade. But as the season has gone on, that just isn't the case anymore.
Overall grade for Jake Muzzin: B-

Graham Daniels is thrilled to become a Cambridge United director
Posted: May 05, 2013|
Former Cambridge United player Graham Daniels has returned to the club as a director.
Daniels, who spent two years at the Abbey from 1983 to 1985, has joined the board in a non-executive role after also becoming chairman of Cambridge United Youth & Community Trust, having been a trustee since it was formed in 2011.
Following his success in charge of Cambridge University Press this season after leading them to the Thurlow Nunn League, Division One title, he decided to seek pastures new after the club elected to drop down to the Kershaw League following the end of their groundshare agreement with Histon.
And he turned down offers of managerial jobs from Thurlow Nunn League outfit Haverhill and Ryman League side Sudbury to take up the chance offered to him by United.
Daniels, who has also been in charge at Histon, Cambridge City and Kershaw League side Hardwick, said: "It's a tremendous honour to join Cambridge United.
"I have the very highest regard for Dave Doggett (chairman) and Jez George (director of football) and I'm thrilled to have been offered the opportunity to play a part in the future development of this great club in the city that's become my family's home in the last 30 years."
The Welshman is general director of charitable organisation Christians in Sport and Doggett felt his broad range of skills will allow him to enhance the role of United and the trust in the community.
Doggett said: "Graham is the perfect additon to the board. He's held in high esteem within the football and wider community.
"His enthusiasm and energy is infectious and I'm looking forward to working with him as we demonstrate how a football club can have a positive impact in the community.
"It's also good news for the club that we now have a former professional footballer on the board to complement the business expertise."
George said Daniels would also play a part helping to develop youngsters on the training ground.
He added: "Graham is a man of the highest calibre and integrity. He has already helped the trust enormously with his input as a trustee and the additional time he'll now be able to commit to the club and the trust will help both organisations grow and develop together"

In addition, employers with self-insured group health plans not subject to federal continuation coverage requirements (COBRA, ERISA or the Public Health Services Act) and employers who issued fewer than 250 W-2s for the preceding calendar year are not required to report for the 2012 calendar year.
The IRS website contains a helpful chart showing the types of coverage that must be reported. See http://www.irs.gov/uac/Form-W-2-Reporting-of-Employer-Sponsored-Health-Coverage.

Chris Brown ft. Tyga & Kevin McCall - Deuces
Artist: Chris Brown
Featuring: Tyga, Kevin McCall
Producer: KMack and Jahlil
Album: Fan of a Fan Mixtape
Avg Rating: 4.2 ( 186 votes )
Whether it was because of a media conspiracy, as he alleges, because the album wasn't very good, or a little bit of both, the numbers say that Chris Brown's Graffiti was a relative flop for Breezy. Attempting to recover his previous spot at the top of the game, Brown is looking to get a boost by teaming up with Cash Money young stunna Tyga for a collabo mixalbum, Fan of a Fan. While Brown both rhymes and raps on Fan, on standout track Deuces, he leaves the mic work to Tyga and newcomer Kevin McCall, instead concentrating, and succeeding, on dropping a typically smooth vocal performance over a simple but effective beat from KMack and Jahlil. So how about it Booth nation? Can we call it a comeback (after all, he's been here for years), or is Brown still a long way from regaining his former glory? Those who answered yes to the first question have undoubtedly already downloaded Ill Will & DJ Rockstar Present: Chris Brown & Tyga Fan of a Fan, available now.

Patrice Bergeron and Joe Corvo will take warmups
|04.22.12 at 2:08 pm ET
WASHINGTON — Bruins coach Claude Julien did not indicate Sunday whether center Patrice Bergeron and defenseman Joe Corvo will be in the team's lineup for Game 6 of the Eastern Conference quarterfinals against the Capitals, but he did say the two will take the ice for warmups.
Both players left Saturday's 4-3 loss due to injury, as Corvo was hurt blocking a shot in the second period and Bergeron left the game in the third period with an undisclosed injury.
Both Jordan Caron and Mike Mottau will also take warmups for the B's, as will blueliner Andrew Bodnarchuk.

The frustrating thing for Cowboys fans is that the offense scored 10 pts and tied things up in the blink of the eye. Only to just mess up again and lose it OT because they couldn't block the punt rush which resulted in the winning score for Arizona. Something has to snap Dallas out of this sleep walking season or it will be again a long off-season with a lot of questions.
A few suggestions.
Bench Corey Procter. He's over head as a starter and is the player other defenses focus on when game planning for the Cowboys.
Trade for Roy Williams before the deadline. We need a play maker to jump start this offense and a #1 pick will be well worth it.
Stop splitting the carries from all Barber then all Jones. Having them both touch the ball in the same drive makes much more sense
Fire Bruce Read now!!! Joe A. is available.
As always I'm interested in other ideas to get this team on the right track.

Harry Potter actor evolves with bold new roles
More News from Associated Press
TORONTO — Daniel Radcliffe continued to evolve from his Harry Potter character with bold new roles, and he's brought three of them to the Toronto International Film Festival.
While they cover some adult themes like murder and homosexuality, Radcliffe says his current roles are not part of some strategy to abandon his past. Rather they're about doing what actors do best: "Take chances."
Radcliffe told The Associated Press on Saturday that he goes by his instincts and makes the kind of films that he would want to see.
The 24-year-old actor spoke candidly about his movie roles during an interview for his new film, "Horns," where he plays a man suspected of brutally killing his girlfriend and one morning awakens with a pair of horns on his head.

The Minister also said that the last date for submission of applications would be extended to Feb. 15 from the existing Feb 10. Scores of students met Damodar Raja Narasimha at Regode and presented a memorandum to the Minister explaining rejection of their applications by the authorities on the grounds that the final exam for the students will be held in June.

John Oster admits he was stunned to be dropped from Reading's starting team for last week's win over Everton.
The 28-year-old midfield schemer said: "I was very disappointed not to start, to be honest. I didn't find out until before the game so I had no idea.
"I was surprised and disappointed at the same time, but it's one of those things.
"I had no inkling what the team was going to be and it's a bit of a mystery to me. Maybe the manager will pull me aside to explain."
Royals boss Steve Coppell stated: "John has said nothing to me about it. My door is always open but he's mentioned nothing so far. Now he's a concern this weekend."

Does anybody know any website which helps bands in promoting? Recently I've come across one website called artistecard.com. Is there anyone who uses their services? Can it help me with promotion? Maybe someone knows other similar websites.
I think the best way would be adding a great video of your music to YouTUBE, Vimeo etc.
You never know how many will see it.
I belive youtube is the way to go!
If you're interested in promote your band and sell some song/ EP you should check out Bandcamp!
Absolutely youtube, bandcamp, reverbnation, soundcloud,and of course, made facebook page for your band and you can include all of these sites to it.

Product DescriptionAlready one of the most popular and winning helmets on both the road and mountain bike circuits, the Sweep gets even better for 2009.
Review Options: Sorted by Latest Review | Sort by Best Rating

User Reviews
Date Reviewed: January 23, 2014
Strengths: It's light, very light, and the retention system works wonders... your helmet will stay put no matter what happens.
Weaknesses: It sits really uncomfortable on my head... it might be the shape of my skull, but Giro helmets fit me like gloves so I don't think I have a dinosaur or an alien's cranium. Padding is minimal and not sufficient to absorb sweat. Drops coming down the lid on hot summer days are the consequence. An issue I've never had with my Xen or my E2.
Bottom Line:
For the price, I'd go with Giro. Not a bad helmet by any means, but there's better stuff, out there.

Bottom Line:
The sweat pads started coming out, but I wear a bandanna anyway.

Duration Product Used: 2 Years

Date Reviewed: May 30, 2008
Strengths: Light, good looking, comfortable for my head, retention system is effortlessly adjusted for use of a bandanna or other under the helmet
Weaknesses: Relatively expensive, the shell at the rear has cracked off in two symmetrical spots on the left and right from regular use
Bottom Line:
Universal-fit Bell/Gyro helmets are cheap and work fine for most people. Your head is worth more than the price of a helmet, get one that fits you fine and that you'll wear every single time you ride.
Negative: in two spots on the rear, the shell has cracked off near the edge. It's by the middle rear "split" in the helmet. The core is not damaged, so just a cosmetic issue. An expensive helmet shouldn't do that. That's why I'm not giving it five stars.

Nearly a decade and a half of work by the Baldwinsville girls volleyball program has culminated with the team's first-ever state Class AA championship.
The Bees, denied at the state tournament each of the last two years, finally broke through Sunday at Glens Falls Civic Center, twice coming from behind to beat Webster Schroeder in a five-game classic to earn the state title.
B'ville and Schroeder, the Section V champions from the Rochester area, had made it through Saturday's round-robin play - the Bees going 5-1, the Warriors 4-2. They had split two games head-to-head, so it was little surprise that the final would prove to be a close one.
Schroeder gradually took control in the first game, then used a sustained run to pull away from the Bees and win 25-17, the sort of one-sided defeat B'ville had rarely dealt with all season, even in tournaments.
Yet the Bees did not get too rattled. Shaking off that defeat, it took the lead in the second game, then fended off all kinds of charges from the Warriors. When Paulina Rein put away back-to-back kills, B'ville won 26-24, and evened the match at one game apiece.
The third game proved just as close. Again, B'ville went out in front. Again, Schroeder fought back, pulling even at 22-22, then taking advantage of a few mistakes from the Bees to prevail by that same 26-24 margin, regaining the lead.
In a totally new position, B'ville again struck back during the fourth game, bolting to a 10-2 lead as Rein, Allegra Bell and Sydine Hamm dominated on the front line. And this time the Bees held on (a pair of late kills from Emily Walser helped) and prevailed, 25-21, so the match - and the championship - rested on one final game.
B'ville was ready for it. With the score 9-8, the Bees reeled off four straight points on Brianna Stewart's serve. From there, the Bees pulled away as Erica Miller's closing kill sealed a 25-17 victory - and the state championship

These Shoes were Made for Crawling
August 3, 2005
KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. - The newly shod Crawler Transporter is checked out before beginning a road test. The Crawler Transporter that will move Space Shuttle Discovery to the launch pad for Return to Flight is taking its first road test following the replacement of all its shoes. The crawlers have 456 shoes, 57 per belt (8 belts in all). Each shoe weighs 2,200 pounds. Cracks appeared in the shoes in recent years, spurring a need for replacement. The new manufacturer, in Duluth, Minn., has improved the design for a safe Return to Flight and use through the balance of the Space Shuttle Program.
