GamePC Barebones System Review - Components
As it took about me a week to settle on a chipset, you would have thought that selecting a motherboard would take just as long. Selecting a motherboard was a bit easier as I decided on the Asus CUSL2.
Asus CUSL2 Layout
Two reviews stand out that helped me decide on the CUSL2 - GamePC's review and AnandTech's I815E motherboard roundup where it received an editors choice award.
Here are some of the main features of the CUSL2. Detailed information can be found at the Asus web site (5.6MB Adobe PDF format):
Note that there are no ISA slots on the CUSL2. In my case, I had to purchase a PCI based network card to continue using a cable modem.
The Asus CUSL2 has more overclocking options than you can shake a stick at. In JumperFree Mode, the CUSL2 allows the FSB, SDRAM, and PCI frequencies to be manipulated within the Advanced BIOS setup.
Advanced BIOS Setup
The FSB:SDRAM:PCI ratio frequencies can be configured in any one of the following modes: [66:100:33], [100:100:33], [133:133:33], and [133:100:33]. Following the selection of a frequency ratio, up to 32 additional FSB, SDRAM, and PCI frequency settings can be selected for fine tuning.
If the system should crash or hang due to improper frequency settings, just power off and restart the PC.
Safe Mode Boot
The system will boot up in a safe mode running at a 66MHz bus speed and the Advanced BIOS setup will appear allowing the frequencies to be adjusted. I've become all to familiar with this screen during the first few days of tweaking the system which I'll cover in the overclocking section.
The CUSL2 was not without it's initial problems, but updating the BIOS with the latest beta version (1003.1) and grabbing the lastest versions of Asus Update and PC Probe solved them.
Asus Update
Updating the BIOS using Asus Update may have worked, but I felt more comfortable flashing from a boot disk. Following the update from version 1001.A to beta version 1002.7, the PC wouldn't reboot and I was sweating bullets at this point. I found my hammer and chisel, removed the CMOS battery, waited a few minutes, and put the battery back. My problem was solved, but you wonder how many motherboards were returned because of this? Asus finally provided instructions shortly before I published this review, on updating the CUSL2 BIOS from version 1001.A:
I also looked through the CUSL2 manual searching for on a jumper to discharge the CMOS similar to Abit's BH6. Unfortunately, Asus decided to make it difficult and on page 57 of the manual cover a procedure to discharge the CMOS by shorting two solder points.
However, it wasn't until I updated to the 1003.1 beta BIOS that wake up from suspend mode worked and the CPU temperature was being reported correctly.
PC Probe
Now that things have settled down, I'd like to mention that the message boards over at CUSL2.com were of great assistance during the initial troubleshooting stage.
The processor. Another tough decision. Had I chosen to go with an AMD based system, this decision would probably have been a bit easier. AMD processors are cheaper than Intel's at the same MHz, and are readily available. Not that I could afford a 1GHz Pentium 3, but at the time I began this review, I was hard pressed to find one unless I ordered a system from a major OEM such as Dell or Gateway.
Overclockers.com is a good source of information on users' overclocking results. For instance, the 700MHz Pentium 3 has become a popular processor to overclock as over 400 user submitted results have been tallied with the average speed being a whopping 953MHz.
So a 700MHz Pentium 3 it is. I also picked up ThermalTake's Golden Orb, which is an interesting looking contraption, as a cooling solution.
ThermalTake Golden Orb
I went the extra distance and bought Mushkin's 150MHz CAS-2 HSDRAM which is rated at 2-3-2 at 150MHz. It was more a bit more expensive than CAS-2 PC133 rated memory, but I figured to go all out.
And finally, to take advantage of the CUSL2's UltraDMA/100 capability, I purchased Maxtor's DiamondMax Plus 40 hard drive which included an 80-wire UDMA interface cable. This specific type of cable is necessary to achive UltraDMA/100 transfer rates. The capacity of the drive is 20.5GB, rotates at 7200RPM, contains a 2MB buffer and is their Ultra ATA/100 model.
SiSoft Sandra Disk Drive Benchmark
The Maxtor drive runs quiet and is fast. However, a visitor to nV News let me know about Maxtor's AMSET program. This program will adjust the speed of the head seeks, which will cause increased sound levels during read/write operations but also increases performance. I have not yet tried the utility.
Enough yappin' - let's see what this system can do.

* Prices may differ from that shown
The upstairs of my house is completely carpet, and while they all look very nice when first laid overtime the dirt sadly builds up. With a house full of children trying to keep cream carpets clean is near on impossible. After we had the carpets replaced I decided it was time to buy a carpet cleaner, to preserve the life of our latest additions.
Choosing my product
I'm not very good when it comes to choosing from different brands. I tend to just impulse buy and this was what happened when purchasing this VAX Rapid Spring Clean carpet cleaner. I had recently seen the Vax advert and the carpet cleaner looked like it was doing a good job, so I went onto the internet and looked for such product. I was shocked at how many cleaners VAX had in the range, so now it came down to selecting which one was right for me. I didn't want anything to big and heavy, not overly expensive but would need to do the job. I read a couple of reviews, and googled a couple of prices and this seemed to be an ideal one for me so I selected this one.
About the product
Luckily I managed to snap one of these up from ebay for £50, but they retail between £70-£100. I noticed a couple of places have these on sale at the minute. The product is very lightweight, I believe it weighs around 5 kg, similar to your average household hoover. This makes it easy to carry from room to room, not very strenuous work at all. Prior to purchase seeing carpet cleaners on shopping channels and such they looked very bulky, and a little hard work so I was dubious when buying one. But this like I said is very lightweight and relatively slimline. The cleaner is grey and orange the well know VAX colours, and quite appealing to look at. Some of these iv seen are a total eyesore! The front of the cleaner is semi see through so you can see how much dirt is being removed. I thought mine were pretty clean but after using this I was amazed to see how much dirt it had taken from my carpets. The cleaner has a line of brush like bristles at the front these help to lift the ground in dirt. The cleaner is connected with a 6 meter cord, so you can go a fair distance with it.
What's in the box?
1 Vax Rapide Spring Clean
1 Carpet cleaning solution
1 Instructional booklet
Overall I was very impressed with the results when using this product. Its very easy to manoeuvre, and doesn't take too much time. My carpets looked a huge amount cleaner restoring them to an almost brand new look. After using the cleaner my carpets smelt very fresh and left a pleasant fragrance to the room. I think its good that this cleaner allows you to see how much dirt is being removed, so that we as the consumer know that its doing its job. With young children as most people will be aware on many occasions when eating or drinking there will be a spillage. This cleaner comes in very handy when this happens and completely removes any spillage and stain that may have occurred. This carpet cleaner also cleans without leaving your carpets soaked which is what I've heard from friends who have brought other brands and models.
I do believe this an all round great product but everything comes with a few downsides in my opinion. Firstly I think this would of hugely benefitted from having a hose, this would of allowed you to clean a specific area in such events as a spillage. Without this you have to clean a larger area and this can become very time consuming. I first purchased this around 6 months ago, and over time iv noticed that the tank has to be emptied more regularly now. Also I find that the filters need to be cleaned a lot more often now than before, i'm not entirely sure why this is. One last thing I would have to say is that the extra VAX products that you have to buy such as the cleaning solution, and the pre and post cleaning treatment are quite expensive compared to others on the market.
Would I recommend this?
I would definitely recommend this cleaner, I was very happy with the price I paid and believe its one of the cheapest cleaners. Not only is it good value for money but it cleans your carpets exceptionally well. Its easy to set up and easy to work. It leaves your carpets smelling fragrant fresh. I am going to give this a 4 out of 5, purely removing one star due to the few negatives iv noticed with it.
For the last few weeks I have been painting the chimney wall of the lounge and the walls and ceiling of our spare bedroom. To finish the bedroom I wanted to get the carpet cleaned but I didn't want to spend too much money if I could help it.
I decided to take a look around to see if there were any reasonably priced carpet cleaners to be had.
The one that I found was the Vax Rapide Spring Clean Carpet Cleaner and I was drawn to it because it was an upright cleaner similar in shape to the upright Hoover vacuum cleaner I used to own. This made me think that the carpet cleaner would be easy to use.
Many years ago I used to have one of the original Vax carpet cleaners which was very cumbersome and it was a right faff to use so I never really got my money's worth from it eventually selling it to someone else.
The other advantage of buying a cleaner over renting one is that I can use it over and over again at no extra cost apart from the cleaning fluid and the electricity.
The Price
I purchased mine from an EBay shop for £69.99 plus a delivery charge of £3.99 although I looked back at the shop the following week and the price had risen to £114.99 so it would be a good idea to shop around to make sure that you were getting the best price.
What Do You Get?
The cleaner comes in a sturdy box and the whole thing weighs 7kg.
In the box you get a set of instructions, a 237ml bottle of Vax Carpet Cleaning Solution and the cleaner in three pieces plus two water reservoirs, screws and locking pins.
It also comes with a two year guarantee.
It is easy to put together - well I managed it unaided so it must be!
Firstly you insert the main body of the cleaner into the base and secure it by inserting one screw in either side. Then you push the handle into the main body and secure in place using the two locking pins - one either side.
There are two reservoirs - a dirty water one which is 1.8 litres - and a clean water one which is 2.6 litres.
The dirty water one fits into the base of the cleaner and the clean water one fits into the upright main body of the cleaner.
Once assembled the 700w cleaner measures 15.2 x 15.2 x 7.6 cm and weighs 5.5kg. It has 6 metres of cable, a 23cm cleaning width, using a multi row brush bar, and a 6.5 metre cleaning reach.
How Do You Use It?
First of all you remove the clean water reservoir by pressing the clip at the top of the reservoir to release it from the main body of the cleaner. Then you need to unscrew the cap from the reservoir and fill it with water and Vax carpet cleaner at a ratio of one litre of water to 40ml of cleaner. There are no graduations marked on the side of the reservoir so you will need to use your measuring jug until you get used to the volume and can do it 'by eye'.
You then push the reservoir back into the main body of the cleaner until it clicks firmly into place. I must stress this fact as, the first time I used mine, I didn't push it in properly and the reservoir emptied itself over the carpet! Ooops!
The dirty water reservoir sits in the base unit with a removable lid on the top.
Once it is all set up and filled using the cleaner is easy peasy.
To clean your carpet you push the cleaner forward whilst depressing the spray trigger on the handle of the machine. This releases a small amount of the liquid into the carpet. You then release the trigger and pull the machine back towards you thus sucking the liquid back out of the carpet and into the dirty water reservoir.
Once cleaning is finished you need to empty any residue from the clean water reservoir and also you need to empty the dirty water reservoir.
This is done by removing the lid by just releasing a small clip and pulling. Then you need to lift out the reservoir using the handle and being careful not to spill any! Then you empty the dirty water into the sink and gasp at the colour of it! Well I did anyway!
How Easy Is It To Use?
Well I found it very manoeuvrable and easy to carry from room to room as it is quite light even when fully loaded with water.
The way I used mine was to apply the carpet cleaner as instructed but then to push the cleaner backwards and forwards over the damp carpet a few times without depressing the trigger thus removing as much of the water from the carpet as possible.
When I spilt the liquid on the carpet I just used the Vax to clean up the spill.
What Are The Results Like?
Well, I'm not going to lie to you, the carpet did not look like new so don't expect miracles. The brush bar is supposed to lift the pile of the carpet and leave it looking renewed.
I found that my carpets look refreshed and the pile is definitely raised which makes them look a lot better. The cleaner removed a lot of dirt from the carpets and left them looking better than before although not really 'renewed' as such.
The carpets were damp when I had finished cleaning them but this is what I would expect and they dried very quickly although I would recommend cleaning them on a warm day rather than in the middle of winter!
How About The Instructions?
The instruction booklet is only in English so there is no sorting through it to find the correct language.
The instructions are easy to understand and come complete with clear diagrams which show how to assemble the cleaner, how to use it, how to clean it and a list of troubleshooting problems and answers.
In Conclusion
Well I would recommend the carpet cleaner.
For the price that I paid and the amount of effort required to use it the results were excellent. It is easy to use, easy to fill and empty and it isn't too big to store away afterwards either.
The carpets look and smell fresher and cleaner and I am impressed so it is five stars from me!

USDA Rules Will Require Safety Labels on Tenderized BeefMay 14, 2015 9:00 am | by MARY CLARE JALONICK, Associated Press
The Agriculture Department said Wednesday the labels will be required starting in May 2016.

Since many people eat cuts of meat that aren't fully cooked in the center, that bacteria can pose a safety hazard.

DRZ400 Forks, Rear Disk & HPN Tank on a R100 GS Paris Dakar
I took this bike (above) out for a spin on a few trails and found the suspension and brakes to be lacking so I did a search on here and found the thread on
GSifying an RT link: HERE which inspired me to have a go myself. I checked out Ebay and a few local classified type websites and came across a set
of DRZ400E forks and yokes, a Remus silencer, a HPN Tank and saddle.
I stripped all the PARIS DAKAR stuff (I have it all complete and stored safely), even before I tried the forks out I had to see how the HPN tank would fit.
The oil cooler was in the way, and in moving the cooler this negated some of the need for the crash bars.(need to source a bolt on sidestand).
I straightened out the tubes to the cooler and reversed them to allow the cooler to be mounted under the headstock, much like the Touratech kit.
I did consider putting a bypass block on it as we don't get the temperatures here to need an oilcooler, but patience isn't a trait of mine so this will
have to do for a while.
Once the DRZ stuff arrived I put it together thinking all I'd beed is a couple of spacers to make up for a longer stem
length, the GS bearing size is 52x28x16 but the DRZ bearing size is 55x30x16.... luckily there is a 52x30x16 available
which got me sorted, popped out the old races and in with the new.
The longer stem needed packing of about 5mm so I routed in the boxes of nuts and bolts and found a 6mm collar with an ID of 30mm, greased the
bearings and bolted it all together.
The next problem was the forks and clamps didn't come with a brake system or an axle bolt and neither did the front wheel, I now have a DRZ
which has now become a temporary donor bike.
The silencer, the original was rotten with rust, but the one I'd picked up was perfect for what I wanted but was way too long, so I drilled out the
rivets and chopped 4 inches off and re-riveted it (below).
I had a couple of TKC80's from another bike so I put them on, I had a target date for New Years Day for a spin so I did take a few short cuts.
I had a set of Magura bars from the XChallenge and fat bar-adapter lower clamps but no top clamps so I had to make them, luckily I found the
right size drill in work, SORTED.
The next problem was the Throttle Vs Brake master cylinder, I wanted to use the DRZ brake system but the BMW unit incorporates the brake and
throttle with two cables running to a carb each.
I used the DRZ master cylinder and a borrowed spurious single cable throttle (thanks Gunner) along with the splitter from the choke to cable the carbs.
Worked a treat, looks a bit home made but shouldn't give any trouble.
I never liked the bulky rear mudguard so I found and old tail-piece from a DR which I used, so all the original plastics are now in a box safe and sound.
I've a bit of tidying up to do with switches and mudguards and I like to put a disk on the back like Phreaky Phil did but for the time being I'm delighted
with the results. I've taken the bike for a spin on the road and it handles very well, there's a lot more ground clearance, infinitely lighter and the brakes
are fantastic, I'm looking forward to a trail ride on it.
Nice! Those fork tubes are monstrous. Are you doing anything to lower the ride height? I have to imagine it's a little chopperesque with the stock height.
fantastic, and I was very conscious of the possibility that it would feel chopperish. I have long legs so the height is a good
thing, between putting the spacer on the top and the forks pushed through the top yoke by 40mm that's as much clearance
as I'm willing to lose, I'd like to raise the back rather than drop the front. I have and adjustable torsion strut and I'm going
to look at replacing the stock rear shock. It genuinely feels very good but needs to go offroad to see for sure, I do however
need handle bar risers.
Really love this bike, can't help but grin when I get on it.
I have a DRZ and am really curious how well the front brake stops the big bike as on the DRZ the brakes aren't anything to write home about. Good enough on the trail but lacking on the road.
moderate speeds and have never found them wanting but the Brembos on the GS were crap which, combined with the
poor suspension, is what made me do this. I know there may have been better choices out there but I got the Forks
and Yokes for very very little money and I'm delighted with the result.
In answer to your question, it now feels possible to do a stoppie on the GS. :D
I've got a dr650 front end--similar brakes. I've done stoppies but I had to get on a downhill and lean waaaay forward. Scared the crap outta me!
This is really weird. I've been used as 'inspiration'. :lol3
Rock on Daithi! Personally I love those forks. I have a '91 GS and I really think that the DRZ forks are a big upgrade. Big thick and just feel RIGHT. Continue!!!
Nice bike.
LETS RACE IT :freaky
I made up a bashplate for the HP1...........
......... and while I'll admit it ain't pretty it's certainly functional. :d
I've bodged the original oil-cooler pipes and managed to get the oil-cooler up out of the way on the downtubes.
I've taken the bike out for a few spins off-road and it's brilliant, need to sort out the back suspension though
but need to maintain the Ultra low budget, any ideas ?. :ear
For economical, people like the YSS shock.
Remus Can.
Nice bike Daithi.
I fitted a Remus can to my R100R a couple of years ago. Must say it increased the power performance of the bike.

Palace concedes media's right to expose scams
MANILA, Philippines—Investigative journalism is part of press freedom.
Presidential spokesman Edwin Lacierda said this in a nutshell to recognize the inherent right of the media to independently look into perceived anomalies in government.
"These are the media … These are the outfits that are doing investigative reporting," Lacierda said, referring to the Inquirer and other media organizations that have been reporting about the alleged P10-billion pork barrel scam.
"That's the function of media. They want to investigate, you are free to investigate. We are in a democracy. If you can talk to those people (whistle-blowers), it's up to you. But, as far as we are concerned, we will rely on the investigation of the NBI," said Lacierda.
Piecemeal basis
The Inquirer has been running a series of reports on the inquiry being conducted by the National Bureau of Investigation on the alleged funneling of lawmakers' pork barrel, officially called the Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF), into kickbacks using dummy nongovernment organizations (NGOs) said to have been formed by businesswoman Janet Lim-Napoles.
The Inquirer has also reported on other questionable PDAF releases, including the procurement of antidengue solution which later turned out to be a garbage deodorizer, in 2011. The "Effective Microwealth Probiotics" was provided by Innsbruck International Trading to four towns in Rizal province and in Polillo in Quezon province at a cost of P20 million. The program was funded by Sen. Lito Lapid's PDAF.
Lacierda said he would not know if—or why—the media were releasing names of politicians linked to the pork barrel scam on a piecemeal basis.
"I don't (know). We are not privy to what they are doing," Lacierda said.
Denying any cover-up in the investigation of the NBI, Lacierda said the President's instruction to the bureau was clear: "Probe everything."
Lacierda also expected Agriculture Secretary Proceso Alcala to defend himself from allegation by Merlina Suñas, a whistle-blower, that his office was a key facilitator in funneling government funds to at least two dummy NGOs.
"We cannot talk (about the issue) since there is an NBI investigation. I think the whistle-blowers were called in to the investigation (Tuesday). I just saw it in the media," he said.
"The NBI will be investigating thoroughly who the whistle-blowers (are). The bureau will invite (for questioning) those that need to be invited. So what I can say is that the NBI knows what evidence to look for. So … wherever the evidence leads to—we will pursue that," Lacierda added.
Asked if he would advise Alcala to explain his side, Lacierda said: "I think he (made his) response to the media. He, in fact, did respond to it and, certainly, he will be open to explaining the situation. That's not a problem for us," Lacierda said.

Royal Briar by Carroll & Co. $25 a big bottle, and all the compliments one can stand.
What is the fragrance that is not very popular or talked about here alot, but always seems to get u compliments?
for me its givenchy pour homme (red bottle). i never fail to get compliments with that
Royal Briar by Carroll & Co. $25 a big bottle, and all the compliments one can stand.
L'Occitane Eau des Baux and Geir
CK Eternity. The one that Off-Scenter hilariously described as follows:
"Eternity is as close to "generic" a men's fragrance as I've smelled in a while. The composition is so bland, so faceless, that I'm not sure I can describe it in terms of notes and ingredients. Etermity's top notes are a vague, undifferentiated citrus (dihydromyrcenal?) and Calone, as blatantly chemical as any store brand shower gel, and its core smells like the lowest common denominator of every stereotypical "fresh" fruity-aquatic fougère since Cool Water. Ideally, any scent so little distinguished from its peers in terms of composition should exhibit outstanding quality to justify purchase. Eternity for Men does nothing of the sort. It's not only trite, but shoddy to boot. Not worth another line of text."
But women love it! This is the thing, you can review and grade perfumes according to top notes, middle notes, dry down, whatever. But people don't think about that when they smell it on another person. I couldn't care less about all that academic hoo hah, if it smells appealing, then it smells appealing (now, of course, there ARE better perfumes than Eternity!)
Pure Malt.
Not very well known around here, but you guys should really check it out.
"...call on God, but row away from the rocks..."
Thanks mate! I just will do that! I hear Pure Coffee is rather good too.
I own a 3.4 Pure Coffee and a few Pure Malt Samples. The Pure Malt gets more compliments, if that's what you're looking for.
Everyone is somebody's weirdo.
Paris Hilton For Men, this thing is a huge compliment getter for me. Not one if my favorites but probably one of the biggest compliment getters for me.
Givenchy Gentleman is probably my #1 compliment getter. (I don't know how "under the radar" it is, though.
When I used to wear it more often. Aqua di Gio always got plenty of compliments and still does as far as I know. It's funny how enlightenment makes the individual feel elevated by newer, obscure and better and all the usual stuff you hear on BN, but plain and simple and nonpretentious Aqua di Gio works....(ohhh those ignorant masses):-)
Your nostrils, which will dilate immesurably in unspeakable contentment, in motionless ecstasy, will ask nothing better for space, for they will be full of fragrance, as if perfumes and incense; for they will be glutted with complete happiness, like angels who dwell in the peace and magnificence of pleasent heaven.
(From Maldoror by Comte de Lautreamont)
Aseel Attar by Al-Rehab
a lady at work told me she was hypnotized by it
I wore Montale White Aoud the next day and he said the Aseel smelled much better
Off-Site Decants =) (updated 05/16/12)
Carnal Flower
I get a ton of compliments with dunhill desire which not too many people own but my number one compliment getter is Bulgari Aqua which is more known and owned but still not too many people have it
Cerruti PH, Azzaro Silver Black, Boss in motion Black. These get me compliments quite a bit, especially Cerruti and Azzaro SB.
Under radar would be Allure Sport.
Looking to purchase - Aventus any size or participate in a split
Allure by Chanel.
MdD by Guerlain
The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education.
Its not exactly compliment getter but yesterday before I went to gym I sprayed myself with some Old Spice Deodorant which I want to use quick and my mother commented how nice it smells. Lol.. She hardly comments on anything I wear.
TOP 3 hot weather:
1. Gucci Pour Homme II
2. Lalique Encre Noire
3. Creed Millesime Imperial
TOP 3 cold weather:
1. Dior Homme
2. Eau Des Baux
3. L'Instant de Guerlain Pour Homme Extreme
Over the past few months it's been Horizon by Guy Laroche.
Some people will compliment you on ANYTHING provided it is not body odour.
Btw. I see you two mentioning Givenchy PH, I love that one, it shares the vibe with Boss in motion black but Boss in motion black is sharper, stronger.
I have to add Azzaro Chrome to my compliment list, I don't see it being highly praised here, I'm not saying it deserves that, but it gets noticed quite.
I think Davidoff Adventure deserves a mention. I saw this at TJ Maxx for about 10 dollars.
I got a compliment on the new Fahrenheit A., that hasn't happened in a while.
I always get compliments whenever i wear the "regular" Fahrenheit (both vintage and reformulation).
Dunhill (brown bottle): Excellent for getting compliment
Swiss Army Altitude, and Original.
Mandarina Duck Pure Black. One of the best blind buy ever.
Aside from this one, my "under the radar" ones that get complimented on pretty much whenever I wear them are:
1) Enigma - Karen Low
2) Black Walnut - Banana Republic
3) 212 Men H20
4) Ferrari Black
And a few girls in college a couple of years back stayed glued to my Dunhill Desire Blue bottle...a BIT too sweet IMO..but if you saw the way they surrounded and sniffed that bottle, you would've thought they were bloodhounds...
I smell better than you.
I wear lots of different things always for myself and not for compliments. BUT, I consistently get comments from strangers whenever I wear these fragrances. I don't know how under the radar they are, but they are nice to smell.
Creed Erolfa (the '98 vintage) - it is worth pointing out that the earlier vintages of Erolfa are a completely different scent due to the intensity of ingredients being used back then.
Le Labo Rose 31
CdG Avignon
Bond No. 9 Harrod's Limited Ed. (Same as Swarovski bottle Oud)
Aqua di Gio *yawn* But it always does the trick!
I do also get compliments for Elixir des Merveilles, in a sort of "gosh, you smell so interesting!" way, which I love.

I get lots of compliments when I wear Michael Jordan's original fragrance. It is an average cologne to me, but women seem to love it.

Aramis New West (preferably old bottle)
Patrick by Fragrances of Ireland
Azzaro Aqua
Gloria by Cacharel
PM me if you have bottles that you're willing to sell or trade!
Nautica Voyage always does the trick especially in the summer
Not totally a cologne but it's the old Bath and body works Woodlands daily refresher more like a body spray in a dark cobalt blue spray bottle. I had 2 and 3/4 bottles left of it and it probably has a 75% success rate on getting compliments. Lasts 5-6 hours easy on clothes, doesn't change a whole bunch but it sure is a wonderful smell. Never did have the cologne or anything else but love the refresher.
Perfume is like cocktails without the hangover, like chocolate without the calories, like an affair without tears, like a vacation from which you never have to come back.
L'Artisan Al Oudh.
I don't know much about medicine, but I know what I like. -- S.J. Perelman
Le Labo Rose 31 - it's a boxer dropper.
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
Two that come to mind are Polo Black and Lanvin Arpege Pour Homme. I don't care for them really, but they worked on me.
One that my wife and I are enjoying these days is Varvatos Vintage. It's been a while since something clicked this way for me (probably since TDH). I can see wearing this one through next March. It's probably a little too sweet and "liquory" for the warmer months, but I have plenty of scents for those times. We have short winters in the south!
A local cheapo: Tabac Beige de Wels. It is a Zino knock off that those complimenting me unmistakeably confuse with Guerlain's Heritage.
Realm Men
For those about to stink, I salute you!
I reply to a lot of threads on this board with this answer: Tuscany!

Brooks Brothers (Original). When I owned it I had people asking me daily what I was wearing.

Join the women who make up rock band Girl in a Coma for a screening of a documentary film produced by Rockefeller Intercultural Media Fellow Jim Mendiola of which they are the subjects, a follow up Q&A with students, and a short, acoustic performance by lead singer and guitarist Nina Diaz. The proposed event represents an exciting opportunity for students to come into dialog with these Chicana artists about their roles as women of color in a field dominated by white men and their particular, embodied ways of constructing queer identity and Chicana/Tejana feminisms.
The women of Girl in a Coma have been the subjects of academic inquiry by scholars interested in feminist cultures and Chican@ cultural production. They have been invited speakers at universities across the country and abroad. For more about them, visit http://girlinacoma.com/.
Sponsored by Department of Chicano Studies, Department of Gender, Women, and Sexuality Studies, Department of American Studies, the Women's Center, and La Raza Student Cultural Center.

It's a combination of languages: Germanic ("Vater"="Father"); Latin ("Deus"= "Deity"); Greek ("Pneuma"="Breath" [pneumonia]); and then words from various other languages (such as "al gib'r" from Arabic="albebra" and "al kohl" from Arabic= "alcohol"). English tends to use word order (as opposed to word endings) to express meaning. For example, there's a big difference between "I love you only" and "Only I love you." In some languages, word order makes no difference because the endings on the words or the forms of the words carry the meaning. The letters used in the English language can be traced all the way back to the Middle East in ancient times ("aleph" = the letter A; and ="beth" equals the letter B. Someone who knows his "alephbeth" knows the "alphabet."

So if you want to know where English came from, I'd have to ask you, "How far back do you want to go?"

The English language of Chaucer (1300's) would have to be studied to be understood. However, by the 1500's-1600's, the language of William Shakespeare can be understood. The English used in the King James Version of the Bible is the language of the 1600's. (BTW, King James didn't translate it. He just appointed the committee that did the translation from the Greek/Latin versions available.)
6th grade is that hard?
Anglo saxons spoke it when the Germanics got here 5th C
i believe it evolved, more than was discovered, if you're referring to the language
By the Germanic Tribes. Hard to say exactly when though, as they didn't really write anything down until much later.
I found it under a rock last night while i was gardening.
English was discovered by someone in England. He must have been thinking "these words we speak, let's call them a language". And since those same words were spoken all over England (but until then not outside of it), he called the language English.

The same thing happened in other countries where other languages were being spoken. Language borders varied from time to time, but languages more or less remained in their own area. Because of that we got several countries where different languages are being spoken. For example Belgium where the northern half speaks Dutch while the southern half speaks French.

George Strait's 'All My Assets Go to Taxes' is a Hilarious Parody Song
The George Strait song 'All My Ex's Live in Texas' will never be the same, once you hear what gospel-singer/songwriter Brian Arnold did to it. Arnold has had a rough go at life, first losing his leg at 13 in a horrible lawn mower accident then years later he loses his left arm to an auto accident. Nonetheless, Brian puts together a very successful singing quartet called the Chosen Few, who works full-time out of Silver Dollar City, Missouri. Brian Arnold writes a lot of the groups skits (with comedy injected of course). He has a great sense of humor as you'll soon be able to tell when you hear his newest parody song, 'All My Assets go to Taxes.'

Now that I am back from NNL East I can get back to this project. I started it while I was wrapping up my '58 Plymouth.
The Imperial body is HUGE, as a result the first thing I had to do was stretch the frame and floor pan from the pro-sportsman kits.
The fit between my floor and body is pretty sloppy so I decided I would use the dash as a locator. The cage may not be 100% accurate but doing it this way made a positive mount for the dash
Here is the frame. I really wanted a top fuel style wing on this big car so I added the back of a T/F dragster chassis. You can see the Imperial body on the left. Behind it is the next drag car in waiting.
Here's the frame with the body work in place.
Started on the wheelie bars
Hopefully this week I can start painting components. This will be a full on race car so no door panels or carpet. Just go fast goodies.
Thanks for looking!!!

Starring: Ranbir Kapoor, Minissha Lambha, Bipasha Basu, Deepika Padukone, and Kunal Kapoor.
Genre: Love
Director: Siddhartha Anand
Banner: Yash Raj Films
Bachna Ae Haseeno is a bland dish without substance by director Siddharttha Anand. The story revolves around four characters - Raj Sharma (Ranbir), Mahi (Miinisha),
Raj Dharma is a casanova by nature with a flirtous attitude. A happy go lucky guy, Raj has no room for love in his life. The first girl who becomes the target of his flirtatious nature is Mahi who meets Raj in Switzerland, where both are spending their holidays. In a similar format to Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Mahi misses her train to Zurich and Raj comes forward to help her. Mahi starts getting attracted to Raj and soon falls in love with him. However, love seems to be a game for Raj and when Mahi finds out the truth, she is deeply hurt.
As soon as Raj reaches Mumbai he meets the next girl in his life Radhika. She is an upcoming model who Raj gets attracted to and they end up having a live in relationship. One day Raj gets a great opportunity in Sydney and he decides to take it up and so Radhika suggests that they get married. Yet Raj leaves her waiting in court and flies off to Sydney. One can feel the pain that Radhika goes through as she is completely in shock!
In Sydney, Raj meets Gayatri who is a taxi driver and once again the attraction phase starts. He falls in love with Gayatri and proposes but Gayatri refuses! For the first time Raj releases the pain one goes through in rejection and to make up for his past mistakes he returns to India to apologize to Mahi and Radhika. And then a predicitable end as Raj returns back to Sydney to find Gayatri who loves him dearly.
Though the film has beautiful cinematography and great music, it just can not make up for the lack of a good story line. Ranbir has done a good attempt at playing a casanova but some how he just does not fit the role. With his chocolaty and cute looks, audiences just may not be able to digest such a character from Ranbir. Bipasha and Minissha are great in the film and really leave the audiences feeling touched. Deepika is average and could have gotten more of a substantial role in the film to prove her acting abilities.Coming from a Yash Raj banner and with the hype that the film has had, audiences will have a lot of expectations which unfortunately may not be met. A weak plot line, a predictable story and a script that lacks substance make Bachna Ae Haseeno a huge disappointment. Word out of Mouth may see the film's collections dropping as this is the third film this year by the Yash Raj Banner which once again lacks in the kind of quality expected.

watched it, it was pretty goodd man!
loved the movie .. ranbir was too good. the review was misleading. it is entertaining movie. just loved bipasha and minissa.. deepika is good as model but not for acting skills.
i loved ranbir a lot... minissa is good, bipasa is great and deepika is so fake.. on the whole entertaining movie. ranbir is going to have great future for sure..
i think minisshaz and ranbir jodi was better... buh i thought this was cute .... and ranbir is absolutely CUTE!
I just loves Minissha and Ranbir's chemistry fare more better than deepika and ranbir's chemistry. I would like to see more films of them. I loved this movie especially the first half, the second half was kinda boring. As we all already knows that he' gonna end up with deepika. There should have been a twist. Ranbir looks awesome, Minissha looks so cute, Bipasha as usual Sexy and Deepika looks good but her acting wasn't that good.
it is a copy of dil mange more (copy cats)
I finally watched it...and it wasn't half bad...from the reviews I expected it to be a horrible film...it wasn't the best, but it was entertaining....I think Bips acted the best in the film...her acting seemed very sincere, I felt really bad for Radhika the character...the ending was cute even though I don't really like the RD pairing....it was nice film!
-i loved ranvir(i think i m becoming one of his huge fans after watching this movie...he totally ROCKS in d movie!)
-i loved bipasha
-i loved manisha
-i loved DEEPIKA!!!(though she had a small role than manisha n bips...she still did a BRILLIANT job!!)
-i loved the songs and all the scenes!
-the movie is really fun to watch and makes u laugh & sometimes smile :]
now there cant be anything else u want in the movie...it totally rocked! i will watch it more & more!!!I recommend everybody to watch it cuz it's one of the best yash raj movies of the year...or shud i say the best so far??it shud be a hit man!!
Are you kidding me.....to each its own opinion! I LOVED the movie, the music, and needless to say RANBIR!!!!

David George Campbell
David George Campbell (born January 28, 1949 in Decatur, Illinois, United States) is an American educator, ecologist, environmentalist, and award-winning author of non-fiction.
Campbell spent his childhood on Eleuthera Island, Bahamas, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and Grosse Pointe, Michigan. He received a BS in biology from Kalamazoo College (1971), an MS in biology from the University of Michigan (1973), and a Ph.D. from the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health (1984). He is married to Karen S. Lowell, a phytochemist; they have a daughter.
Bahama Islands[edit]
From 1974-1977, Campbell was the executive Director of the Bahamas National Trust,[1] the organization responsible for parks, reserves, and setting priorities for wildlife conservation in the Bahamian Archipelago. As director he established priorities for the protection of island-endemic species including the rock iguanas (Cyclura spp.) and hutias,[2] and started the process of the Bahamas becoming a signatory to the Convention on Trade in Endangered Species (CITES). His career in the Bahamas accumulated in the publication of The Ephemeral Islands, the first natural history of the archipelago to be published since the 1800s.
Chincoteague Bay[edit]
From 1978-1983, Campbell elucidated the etiology of gray crab disease, an amoebic pathogen that every spring kills ca. 30% of the blue crabs (Callinectes sapidus) in Chincoteague Bay, VA. His research showed that the disease is spread by cannibalism, mediated by ambient temperature and salinity.[3]
In 1974, Campbell was a botanical explorer at the Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazônia (INPA)[4] in Manaus, Brazil, from where he staged expeditions to study the ethnobotany of the Jamamaji and Paumari Native Americans.[5] Campbell joined the scientific staff of the New York Botanical Garden from 1984–1990, conducting floristic inventories throughout Brazilian Amazonia as part of the Projeto Flora Amazônica program;[6] destinations included O Deserto on the Rio Xingu (Pará),[7] the Rio Falsino (Amapá), Reserva Biológica Ilha de Maracá (Roraima), the Rio Moa and Serra do Divisor National Park (Acre).
These expeditions resulted in several notable papers on allelopathy,[8] várzea floodplain forests[9][10] and anthropogenic lianaceous forests.[11] The Acre expeditions were chronicled in A Land of Ghosts, which won the Lannan Literary Award for Nonfiction.
Antarctica, Africa and Asia[edit]
In the late 1980s and 1990s, Campbell shifted his research. He examined the impacts of elephants on west African forests,[12] the diversity of subtropical forests in southern China,[13] conducted research on the pathologies of krill and marine isopods in the waters of Admiralty Bay, King George Island (one of the South Shetlands of the Antarctic Peninsula), joined the sixth Brazilian expedition to Antarctica (1988), and lived at that nation's Comandante Ferraz Base.[14] This experience was chronicled in The Crystal Desert, which won the Burroughs Medal, the PEN Martha Albrand Award and the Houghton Mifflin Literary Fellowship Award.
Grinnell College[edit]
Since 1991 Campbell has been a professor of biology, chair of environmental studies and Henry R. Luce Professor [15] in Nations and the Global Environment at Grinnell College.[16][17] From 1994-2007 he and his Grinnell students conducted studies on the historical ecology of the Yucatec, Mopan and Kekchi Maya of Belize, using quantitative methods to test the long-held hypothesis that the Maya Forest is anthropogenic,[18] even suggesting that its species composition was due to post-contact ranching.[19] In 2010 Campbell extrapolated this controversial hypothesis to Amazonia, presenting evidence that pre-Columbian Native Americans caused a large-scale extinction of botanical diversity before the Europeans arrived.[20]

WALLA WALLA -- A foreclosure auction for part of the former Blue Mountain Mall property has been called off
A sale of the southern half of the commercial property had been scheduled for Nov. 2 as part of a proceeding to pay delinquent taxes and other assessments, said Walla Walla City Attorney Tim Donaldson.
The city on Oct. 28, however, received two checks from Key Bank, identified as the creditor for the property. One was for $54,884.77, the amount owed to the city for a Local Improvement District assessment related to the mall's development more than 20 years ago. The second was for $451,877.22 in delinquent property taxes owed to Walla Walla County, Donaldson said.
He said property taxes are still outstanding for the northern portion of the property. That section had not been part of the foreclosure process.
The payments mark another chapter in the tumultuous story of the mall's redevelopment.
Since the property was acquired and a conversion from an enclosed to an open air mall began in 2008, the property has been in a blighted state of demolition and construction chaos. The property has withered down to three operations, Sears, Shopko and Pizza Hut.
Bellevue area developer Winston Bontrager is believed by the city to be a common link in every listed ownership group that has been part of the redevelopment. He has been a principle investor in the project and is part of Walla Walla Town Center LLC, which is the mall's current owner.
Many contractors have gone unpaid for their work and have filed liens against the development, which owners originally said went belly-up because they hadn't secured financing before banks tightened lending.
This was the third foreclosure action at the property since 2009. The last one before this, also cancelled was set for July 2010.
The last was on behalf of the lender for the $10.5 million acquisition of the property several years before.
Key Bank had been listed in that bankruptcy filing as having been pledged the $10.5 million note.
Consequently, Donaldson said he was not surprised to receive Key Bank's payment for the delinquent assessments.
"Their security on that loan is the property," he said.
