Product: Domain Cost Club (aka DCC)
Website: www.domaincostclub.com
Price: $99 Basic ; $499 Premium
Rank: 17/100
In this review I'll be covering Domain Cost Club from two different perspectives; one of the buyer and from the seller, or affiliate's point of view. While Domain Cost Club, in a way operates similar to bigger-named companies like Godday, HostGator, NameCheap, to name a few, one of the primary differences I'd like to cover today, is the home-based opportunity itself.
So, if you're contemplating on becoming a Domain Cost Club affiliate, or even a wholesale purchaser, I recommend you first read through this DCC review.
What Is Domain Cost Club?
Domain CostClub is a company very similar to big corporations that we better well-know today as GoDaddy.
More importantly is its precise similarity with and to Global Domains International, otherwise known as G.D.I – a company founded back in 2000. While there are a few minor differences at play, they both offer an affiliate and Multi-Level Marketing opportunity.
Cost To Join Domain Cost Club?
In order to become a member of Domain Cost Club, you're required to pay one of two fee's:
1st – $99 multi-level marketing fee; a DCC standard member package that determines your resulting compensation from your recruitment efforts of other individuals.
2nd – $499 multi-level marketing fee; a DCC charter member package allowing for increased compensation by your recruiting.
Difference Between Domain Cost Club and GoDaddy?
I believe what you'll find to be unique with Domain Cost Club are its extensive features and offers in regards to domain names. As a result of its attempt to stand over and above the crowd of bigger domain corporations, is why you'll also come to notice some highly unusual domain extensions.
These extensions are better known as TLDs, and the likeliness of you having come across or seeing any one of these TLD's listed on Google's SERPs is literally slim to none.
In-fact, it's important to become aware of the fact, that in-regards to the general population, ".com" is by far the most favored extension when it comes to getting your website indexed.
Unlike GoDaddy and it's affiliate opportunity which offers the much more favorable, original top-level domains, GDI & DCC have come to offer 1,000's of various and highly-randomized domain extensions; extensions that may in-fact look to be attractive at first-sight, but unfortunately are unrealistic when it comes to creating a legitimized branded website. And thus, is likely best to be avoided altogether, as both a potential affiliate, network marketer, and consumer!
"Newest" Domain Cost Club TLD Examples:
Why TLD's Are Ineffective & Useless?
I did this to help make you aware of the motive behind DCC. Although, Domain Cost Club doesn't seem to have an actual represented owner, or co-founder to vouch for the products legitimacy, gives reason to why the company itself (given their specialty in the purchasing of domain names) are aware of the fact that these TLD domains, are useless.
Is Use Of TLD's a Good Idea?
Yes, it may look like a truly good idea, yet regardless of the actual idea comes down to the simple fact in question, if there is anyway this could work out. Imagine…
How confusing it would become if Google were to begin indexing 100's of newly made up TLD/Domain Extensions?
It would cause a LARGE number of issues if Google were to ever decide in changing its algorithmic policies when it comes to proper SEO and ranking.
Another problem that comes to mind is the mere fact, no one would be able to remember specific websites anymore. People would be going crazy over the fact just trying to remember if they entered the right extension or not.
Hence, while this TLD/domain extension has been brought up for quite awhile now, has made such a minimal impact in the world of domain purchasing!
Let's get into the affiliate opportunity regarding Domain Cost Club…
Becoming a Domain Cost Club Affiliate?
One thing I'd like to point out, is Domain Cost Club's very own Home Page. The first thing you'll come to notice is not only the large-spelled words of "Become an Affiliate," but even a whole DCC affiliate video besides it.
In my opinion this immediately shows me more about the entire motive behind company, which is made to simply leverage its own affiliate AND MLM Networking opportunity – A true call for skepticism!
Domain Cost Club Overview:
After thoroughly reviewing Domain Cost Club, its high-price to join an opportunity, which can be done for free at GoDaddy, for an opportunity, product, and service that only seems to be losing more popularity tells me the opportunity has implemented one too many features to ever become a success; both in-terms of the company and every one of its affiliates.
Furthermore, it's easy to reason why Domain Cost Club has taken measures to implement their own MLM opportunity.
While the affiliate marketing home-based opportunity makes plenty of sense, adding a whole new marketing level scheme to it, that requires payment solidifies proof that the creation of this product and website was nothing more than for mere profit.
The fact GDI has also been using this same technique, minus the use of TLD's, also brings another factor into place… That is, both these companies have taken the Domain Industry and utilized its legitimate products to create their own multi-marketing scheme behind everything else.
There's a reason for the legitimacy of GoDaddy and that's the result of offering the right consumer products without any in-your-face type MLM advertising!
Domain Cost Club Scam Or Legit?
To conclude, Domain Cost Club and Global Domains International are not just very hard-sells, but are also costing you a fortune to get into an opportunity where you must be required to sell this opportunity and product to others.
While the opportunities may not be scams entirely in themselves, the required fee and payment to join is completely unnecessary and the reason to why I believe is utilized only since the products themselves, aren't actually selling!
Try selling such TLD extensions to the online community before paying any fee simply to see how well it would work! Or, why not simply go with the better alternative and start and create your own website. Become an affiliate for a whole wide number of legitimate products and services out there, without being charged hundreds of dollars!

A panel of nine economists and business leaders believe the Reserve Bank should leave the official cash rate at 2.5 per cent on Thursday, but with less conviction than they did six weeks ago.
The members of a "shadow board" set up by the New Zealand Institute of Economic Research are asked to give a percentage value of how much they prefer each interest rate the bank might go for.
The results are then aggregated to give a collective view which serves as an indicator of how convinced they are of the preferred option and how they see the distribution of risks around it.
The panel is 62 per cent in favour of leaving the OCR on hold, down from 65 per cent before the last review in late July.
If the rate were to be moved, they see a much stronger case for a cut than an increase.
NZIER economist Kirdan Lees, who set up the shadow board, said global risks continued to materialise, hitting Asian exports and weakening the outlook for Australia.
Combined with a muted domestic recovery and limited inflation, that meant there was no rush to lift rates.

What is Protagonize?
"So," you're asking yourself. "What exactly is Protagonize all about?"
Protagonize.com is a multiple award-winning online writing community based out of Vancouver, BC, Canada, established in late December of 2007. It's owned and operated by Taunt Media. The site caters to both amateur and experienced authors interested in online collaborative creative writing, and is currently home to over 30,000 members from around the world.
Where it all started
Protagonize was originally devised as a lark, testing out a new technology platform with what was supposed to be a simple, fun idea. When the site launched in late 2007, it was dedicated completely to the (nearly) lost art of the addventure (yes, that's spelled right), a very specific type of collaborative fiction. Shortly after our initial launch, the site was expanded to support the creation of linear stories (now referred to as standard stories when writing on Protagonize), as well, based on user feedback. This significant change allowed the site to attract a much broader community of authors looking to hone and refine their creative talents. Since that time, many more updates and additions have been made to enhance our authors' experience on the site.
Linear stories are familiar to everyone, but you may be asking yourself: how exactly does an addventure work? Early forms of this on the web date back over a decade, when the now-defunct Snoot.com popularized a sub-site called "Choose Your Own Schizophrenia" in the mid-to-late '90s. Of course, this all dates back to the old Choose Your Own Adventure™ series that started back in 1979 and ran until 1998, published by Bantam Books.
To quote the wondrous Wikipedia (and to save us writing something that's already been explained better by someone else):
An addventure is a type of online interactive fiction that combines aspects of round-robin stories and Choose Your Own Adventure-style tales. Like a round-robin story, an addventure is a form of collaborative fiction in which many authors contribute to a story, each writing discrete segments. However, like a gamebook, the resulting narrative is non-linear, allowing authors to branch out in different directions after each segment of the story. The result is a continually growing work of hypertext fiction.
The idea to revamp the concept surfaced in mid-2007 while trying to come up with a good way to test out our new technology platform. The old web-based collaborative fiction implementations were always a lot of fun, but were either critically flawed or generally lacking in a variety of ways. Snoot.com was uncontrolled and organic. There was no moderation of any shape or form, and people tended to run amok, causing havoc and generally enjoying themselves in a chaotic sort of way. Protagonize began as an attempt to modernize the collaborative creative writing arena and inject a little Web 2.0 love to produce a better, more usable interface. Mix an underlying social network and that's where we stand today. So far, so good.
Where Protagonize is going
Since launching, Protagonize has transitioned gradually from what was originally conceived as a game-like environment to a more widespread collaborative writing community that encourages constructive feedback and critique. The site has won a variety of awards since its inception, mostly in the design and community development spheres. Most recently, Protagonize was a finalist at the 2009 SXSW Interactive Web Awards in the Community category. While we didn't win, it was great exposure for the site and it's been growing steadily since then.
We've recently launched a new groups & writing circles feature on the site that encourages discussion on various topics about creative writing, and allows the authors on the site to create their own custom groups and writing circles. We're hoping to attract existing real-life local writing communities and programs as well, and provide them with an online presence for their members on an already writing-oriented site, as opposed to using more generic social networking tools or platforms.
In the near future, we'll also be introducing a tiered subscription system chock full of additional features for members who'd like to upgrade to paid accounts. This system will help support ongoing and future development, and the continued addition of new features to the site.
Protagonize's future is bright, and we're ecstatic to have you here to be a part of it.

Our History
Founded in 1993, The Emily Program has become nationally recognized for our compassionate and personalized approach to eating disorder awareness, treatment, and lifetime recovery. We're here to help people of all ages and genders make peace with food. Take the first step today. Schedule an eating disorder assessment or call us at 1-888-EMILY-77 (1-888-364-5977).
The History Of The Emily Program
In 1993, psychologist Dirk Miller, Ph.D., L.P., opened a private eating disorders treatment practice after a distinguished career in the field. Previously, he had started the first hospital-based eating disorders treatment program at South Bend (IN) General Hospital. He had also worked with the University of Minnesota's intensive bulimia program and started an eating disorders group at The University of St. Thomas.
"I had great experiences," he says, "but I didn't feel as good about treating eating disorders in a hospital setting as I did in outpatient settings. The goals of a hospital didn't coincide with the needs of the eating disorder clients I knew. Mental health issues are very different than physical health concerns and require different methods and settings."
Dr. Miller named his new practice The Emily Program, after his sister, Emily, who recovered from an eating disorder. The Emily name has come to signify the core values behind our successes: personalized care for all individuals struggling with eating disorders.
The Emily Program timeline
- 1993: Dr. Dirk Miller opens a private practice called The Emily Program in a former St. Paul fire station.
- 1995: Gretchen Goff, M.P.H., coordinator of the first intensive bulimia treatment program, becomes Miller's business partner.
- 1999: Goff retires. The Emily Program hires our first staff person, therapist Lori Peiffer, Ph.D.
- 2000: The Emily Program adds two additional therapists and our first administrative staff person, Shirley Gottwalt, and a consulting dietitian begins offering services. Our St. Louis Park office opens on S. Highway 100. The St. Paul office moves to Gordon's School Building on Dayton Avenue.
- 2002: With outpatient groups expanding, Jennifer (Gottwalt) Smith, R.D., L.D., becomes our first staff dietitian.
- 2003: Our team, now comprised of six therapists and a dietitian, holds a day-long retreat to plan The Emily Program's first intensive program, and consider expanding into other outpatient services. Our St. Paul offices move to the Court International Building on University Ave.
- 2006: Our first satellite office opens in downtown Stillwater, Minnesota.
- 2007: We begin operating the Anna Westin House in Chaska, Minnesota's first residential eating disorders treatment facility. Our second satellite office opens in downtown Duluth, the largest city in northern Minnesota. To accommodate our growing programs and staff, we purchase and begin to renovate the former Park Midway Bank in St. Paul's St. Anthony Park neighborhood, creating our new St. Paul office and agency headquarters.
- 2008: Our third satellite office opens in Burnsville, a Twin Cities suburb. We move into our new St. Paul headquarters and even hold meetings in the old vault!
- 2009: The Emily Program purchases the former St. Andrew Kim Catholic Church, across from the University of Minnesota's St. Paul campus. We renovate the building to host the new Anna Westin House, doubling treatment capacity to 16.
- 2010: In response to steadily increasing demand for treatment, our Duluth team moves into new, larger offices. The Anna Westin House opens in its new, expanded facility—the renovation wins a design award from the Builders Association of the Twin Cities. We also purchase the Children's Home Society and Family Services historic Toogood Building, down the block from our St. Paul headquarters, and begin renovating it to house more treatment, including an expansion for our adolescent programming.
- 2011: Our first facility outside Minnesota opens—an outpatient program in Seattle Washington's Westlake neighborhood. We also open a 10-bed adolescent residential program in St. Paul's historic Toogood Building, which includes outpatient services for adolescents and their families.
- 2013: We open our partial plus lodging options in St. Paul, St. Louis Park, and Seattle. Hillside, West End, and Neptune Lodging are the first of their kind for eating disorders in Minnesota and Washington, offering adult women a comfortable, home-like place to stay while participating in Minneapolis-St. Paul or Seattle intensive programs. Responding to demand in Washington, we expand our Seattle office and open in Spokane. Spokane is our second Washington location. We also open our Woodbury, MN office in September.
- 2014: We expand our Burnsville office in February to provide more treatment options, including family and couples counseling along with additional adolescent programs. In June we partner with Cleveland Center for Eating Disorders. Due to high demands for treatment in the South Sound area of Washington, our third Washington office opens in Lacey, WA. Spokane services expand to offer partial plus lodging and we begin plans to open 24/7 residential care in Ohio and Washington.
- 2015: The Emily Program opens an outpatient office in Cranberry Township outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania that offers individual, group, and family therapy services. In June, The Emily Program-Residential opens in Cleveland Heights, Ohio, offering adults 24/7 eating disorder treatment in a warm, inviting, renovated historic home.
Today, The Emily Program's clinical and administrative staff has grown to over 500 people, offering an unusually wide range of outpatient, group treatment services, intensive programs, and residential care for eating disorders and related problems.
Dr. Miller believes the program is unique because our foundation is outpatient services. He says, "We didn't start as an inpatient program and develop outpatient services to support that model. The reason is pretty simple: most change occurs as an outpatient. We live our lives as 'outpatients'. Ultimately we must apply what's learned to a life of recovery that we live outside the treatment program."

We have plenty of nourishing potions and lotions for the skin on our faces, but from the neck down it's a bit of a wasteland. That's all changing thanks to this brand new body serum from One Love Organics. Handmade with ethically sourced essential oils, the spray-on treatment hydrates skin and leave it lightly scented. Plus, it's a Birchbox exclusive!
I received the Lavender oil and I love it. It almost has a combination of lavender and a woodsy note as well. Either way, it smells incredible and is very relaxing...quite spa like. I also love that it is from One Love Organics. Sinks into dry skin quickly and doesn't feel greasy. I just might have to buy the full size product!4
I received this in my BB today, I didn't know what it was but as soon as I smelled it I was in love! This product is an oil so don't expect it to feel like a lotion of course, but the serum soaks in fast and the pleasant aroma lasted a long time without being over powering. Also a very great sample size. Good job One Love! I will look for more things from you!5

@Seifer & Final: I'm very excited about getting back to work on CoD. I have all the pieces cut out, just need to sew them together.
Though I came to discover, I need to buy new gold fabric since the remainder I had from making Kuja ended up being used to work on Princess Velvet. So I need to buy some to do the golden parts on the skirt and do my idea for the "tentacles"? or Om and Nom as tifaia says for hers :P
I do have some gold, but I'm using it for Rydia's boots. So, need that.
@tifa : No CoD? D8
On the Ultimecia front: I started drafting out patterns for the wings, and I'm trying to keep them travel-sized but still bad ass. I need to have them so that they'll be easy to store. Which is part of my problem. It's her horns that will be the bigger issue, but I will have lots of time after February to work on her as long as I don't get any requests or commissions between Con-G and Anime North. Her dress? Easy. Makeup? Will be interesting. Gloves? Not too bad. Wings? Challenge, but manageable. Horns? Still working on that XD
Kuja will be under-going repairs in the new year. I have him in storage mode for now as I still have.... 8 costumes? maybe 12? to finish before the end of the year. I might take him back to Anime North next year, maybe. Depending. Depends what I want to wear to replace Kefka the Friday since he's now on a back-burner. I have fabric for him, the wig, and the feathers and beads.... Kuja's repairs and slight revamp will involve boots being fixed, neck armour being re-done, redoing the gold trim on the jacket, and possibly a new shirt that will be more solid - since it's supposed to be armour.

At around 4 a.m. on Sunday March 16, 16-year-old Justin Casquejo snuck into the new World Trade Center and climbed as high as he could, capturing most of it in pictures and video. The New Jersey teen later confessed everything to the police.
Here is what you need to know about this illegal feat of daring:
1. He Climbed Through a 12-inch-by-12 Inch Hole in the Fence
Around 4 a.m., Casquejo climbed through a 12-inch-by-12-inch hole in the fence that surrounds the entirety of the World Trade Center grounds. From there he made his way to the building.
2. He Was Barely Detectable By Cameras
Police told the ABC that security cameras showed only "faint" evidence that Casquejo was even there. The teen told police that he was, "trying to be stealthy and avoid detection."
One of the only things noticeable about Casquejo that night was the red blinking of his Go Pro camera, which was confiscated when he was arrested. It is unclear as to whether the footage will ever be released.
3. The Security Guard Was Sleeping
Once inside the building, the New York Post reports that Casquejo was given a ride by an elevator operator to the 88th floor. He then climbed the stairs up to the 104th floor where a security guard assigned to protect the area that is still under construction, was sound asleep.
From there the teen daredevil made his way to the roof, and finally the antenna. The sleeping guard has since been fired.

4. He's a Daredevil
His Twitter account paints the picture of a teen in love with parkour and adventure. Above you can see him hanging from a crane, and on his account you can see him flipping into the Hudson River, and climbing onto some pretty high looking rooftops.
5. He's Been Arrested & Is Being Charged
On his way down from the tower after sunrise, he was spotted by a construction worker and arrested by Port Authority police. He is being charged with misdemeanor trespassing.

How nerdy pursuits could save your life.
Recently I spent a good proportion of a day in a dark, smoky room, confused by loud noise while other people snuck around and tried to shoot me. What on earth was I doing? I was playing Quasar with some friends, and it struck me that this was remarkably good practice for the end times.… Read More »

Team NZ's godfather says event should be country v country.
The man who kicked it all off for Team New Zealand believes for the America's Cup to draw the competitors back in a nationality clause needs to be reinstated.
After two months of one-boat contests and repetitive match-ups, a disappointing Louis Vuitton challenger series came to a close this week when Emirates Team New Zealand ousted Luna Rossa 7-1 in the final.
The Italians were the only team that Dean Barker and his crew met on the water during the regatta, after Artemis made a belated entry during the semifinals.
Sydney-based Belgian financier Marcel Fachler, who paid the entry fee for New Zealand's first America's Cup challenge back in 1987, said to attract more challengers in the future the event needs to distance itself from the image that it is the exclusive domain of egotistical billionaires, and restore an element of nationalism.
"It needs to be country against country," said Fachler, who was in San Francisco cheering on Team NZ in the Louis Vuitton finals.
"If you remember Larry Ellison said at the beginning, 'this is going to be an American team, this is going to be American sailors who are going to win the America's Cup'. There are two Americans on the boat, the rest are New Zealanders and Australians.
"If you want to get people to care about the America's Cup, there needs to be some national pride involved. Like the Kiwis and Italians have."
Fachler said the youth America's Cup, which kicks off next week before the real show begins, will likely attract more international media coverage than the Louis Vuitton Cup. Featuring 10 international teams, including two from New Zealand, the youth event will be sailed in the smaller AC45 catamarans.
The current iteration of the America's Cup is a very different world from when Fachler fell in love with the event, witnessing Australia II's historic victory during the 25th edition in Newport in 1983.
A keen sailor, he'd been following the exploits of New Zealand sailors for 10 years, and started asking why the Kiwis did not lodge a challenge for the Cup in Fremantle.
"I was sure when the time came in 1984 that someone would pay the entry fee and nobody paid. I waited until the last day, and without anybody knowing, I just paid it."
The challenge accepted, Mr Fachler flew to Auckland and told a stunned RNZYS Vice-Commodore Don Brooke "you're in the Cup".
"He said 'we don't have the money'. I said I don't have the money for the whole Cup, but what I can do is start you off and I put in something like $250,000, which at that time was a lot of money. That's how it started."
When Fachler's commodity broking business "went south", Sir Michael Fay was brought into the picture and the New Zealand Challenge went on to its outstanding debut in Fremantle.
Fachler, who had no prior connection to New Zealand sailing when he stumped up the US$16,000 entry fee on their behalf, said he is extremely proud when he considers how far Team NZ have come.
"It has created a whole industry since 1984 - boat-building, engineering, even professional sailors.

Seven teams withdrew from the US Grand Prix because of safety concerns over tyres made by the French firm.
The promoters of the French GP revealed they had received guarantees that the problems which dogged Michelin would not happen at Magny-Cours on 3 July.
Michelin advised the teams not to race at Indianapolis after tyre failure caused two crashes in free practice.
British Grand Prix organisers, whose race follows on from France on 10 July, said they were also confident there would be no problems at Silverstone.
"The configuration of the circuit does not place the tyres under the pressure levels they had to withstand in Indianapolis," said British Racing Drivers' Club chief executive Alex Hooton.
"The banked corners are a feature of the Indianapolis circuit and are a one-off in Formula One.
"The problems that arose as a direct result of the banking at turn 13 should not be experienced at any other circuit."
He added: "The teams are fully prepared, so it's inconceivable that we will see a repeat of events from the weekend."
Michelin's future in Formula One has come under scrutiny following Sunday's events in the United States.
They have apologised for providing unsuitable tyres but have vowed to remain in F1 despite the controversy.
"We are convinced our decision was a professional one in line with our policy of 100% safety," said a statement.

What's in a name? Well, quite a bit actually considering pseudonyms are quite the rage in the literary world. Today authors use pen names for a variety of reasons; to disguise what a prolific writer they are or possibly to keep their second job and/or personal life a secret. However one of the big reasons for having a pen name, especially in the 'Good old days' was to mask your gender. Since it's Women's History Month, I decided to take a look at some famous authors who some might be shocked to find out were, in fact, women.
George Eliot is a creator of classics, the author of titles such as Middlemarch, Daniel Deronda, Silas Marner, and more. Everyone may know George Eliot, but Eliot is only a pen name for Mary Ann Evans. Before publishing novels as Eliot, Evans was the assistant publisher for the Westminister Review, which is nothing to scoff at. However, determined that her work would be taken seriously she assumed the pseudonym of George Eliot. The choice of a pen name may also have been to keep her out of the public eye due to her affair with a married man, George Henry Lewes.
- Karen Blixen A.K.A. Isak Dinesen (1885-1962)
Isak Dinesen who wrote the classic Out of Africa, a memoir of her time in first Kenya and then East British Africa. Out of Africa was published in 1937 and covers 17 years of the life of Karen Blixen, Dinesen's real name. Blixen was well respected by her contemporaries (such as Ernest Hemingway and Truman Capote). She authored many stories and essays until her death in 1962.
Though today they are published under their given names, the Bronte sisters originally published under male pen names. They became the Bell brothers; Charlotte became Currer, Emily became Ellis, and Anne was Acton. The sisters are best known for the novels Jane Eyre (Charlotte), Wuthering Heights (Emily), and Agnes Grey(Anne).
To find more female authors who have used male pseudonyms click here or check out our book display on the Main library's first floor.

COKE BUST "Lines In The Sand" LP (Six Weeks)
After a 7″ and demo, Washington, DC's reigning masters of thrashing hardcore have finally hit the studio to record a full-length of no holds barred, old-school hardcore punk, bringing intelligence to straight edge hardcore that is played at lightning speed, channeling the spirits of bands like SSD, Deep Wound and Youth Of Today. Vinyl available through Six Weeks Records and is now for sale at Smash!
FLIPPER"Public Flipper Limited" LP (4 Men with Beards)
On 180 gram vinyl with gatefold sleeve! Public Flipper Limited was originally released in 1986 as a double LP of live material culled from 1980-1985. The sound quality and playing are both a grimy, distorted mess, which suits the band just fine. Always alternating between endearing and abrasive Flipper left no room for the middle ground of "like." The album title is a shot at John Lydon and his alleged plagiarism of Flipper's artwork for his own PIL and it proves that Flipper was never opposed to alienating its audience, no matter how sanctified. Harsh, art-rock classics from one of SF's most important post-hippy era bands.
FLIPPER "Sex Bomb Baby" LP (4 Men with Beards)
Originally released in 1987, Sex Bomb Baby is actually a collection of Flipper material dated no later than 1982, comprised of singles, B-sides, and compilation tracks. The single version of "Sex Bomb" is an all out classic, a frenetic, yelping punk answer to "Louie, Louie" and the rest is no slouch either, outrageous, harsh, sludge-punk from San Francisco's finest. If you don't already own these songs, you are not worthy of punk-dom.
MAGRUDERGRIND "s/t' LP (Six Weeks)
Magrudergrind took time off of their busy tour schedule to record this self-titled full-length, with the CD on Willowtip and the LP on Six Weeks. This barrage of grinding thrashcore is strictly limited to 1,000 copies on vinyl and Smash! has a few copies, we're keepin' em' warm, just for you, so come on… don't be afriad, we don't bite, unless you ask us to.
MARGINAL MAN "Identity" LP (Dischord)
Marginal Man was one of the first of the DC hardcore bands to feature two guitars and was first introduced to the DC crowds at the "555″ concert at the 9:30 club on Jan. 2, 1983. The show was billed as "555″ because not only was Marginal Man a five-piece, but both Minor Threat and Faith had recently added second guitars to their line-ups, and this was a coming out party of sorts for all three. Other than Minor Threat, Government Issue, and Scream, Marginal Man was one of the few early DC punk bands to get out and tour the country. They released their first LP, "Identity" on Dischord in March 1984 and later released albums on Enigma and Giant Records before breaking up in 1988. This 12″ EP was re-cut in April 2009 at Chicago Mastering Service and is being re-issued on vinyl for the first time since the mid-80s. The vinyl also comes with a free MP3 download.
WIPERS "Over the Edge" LP
The bleak, hard-driven third LP by the Wipers (originally released in 1983) offers Greg Sage at his most chased and breathless, lashing out with sharp staccato notes as if melody were his only defense. While their debut LP provided the blueprint for grunge, and their second album recast the band as one of America's premier postpunk bands, it's Over The Edge that best exemplifies the Wipers' sound. The jagged, effortless guitar lines, the paranoid lyrics and raw-throated vocals and the taut, unified rhythms that define their sound bleed together most clearly on this LP, and it stands as both the best entry point for new fans and the most prevalent favorite of diehards.
EDDY CURRENT SUPPRESSION RING "Primary Colours" LP/CD (Goner Records)Australia's Eddy Current Suppression Ring have been making waves in the punk/garage/indie scene ever since their first album and U.S. tour. Primary Colours was released to rave reviews and sold out shows, with the first week sales putting the record at number six on the Australian national charts. Eddy says, "musically, to me it sounds a bit more '82ish than the '76ish sound of our first LP, slightly less frantic and maybe a bit more palatable." LP version includes a free download.
THE NERVES "One Way Ticket" LP/CD (Alive Records 2008)This collection, authorized for the first time ever by the three band members, features the band's 1976 EP (now regarded as a power pop classic), as well as demos and previously unreleased live recordings, REMASTERED and complete with notes and photos. The CD is a Digipack and the LP comes with an alternate cover.
JAY REATARD " Singles 06-07″ 2xLP/CD (In The Red 2008)In The Red is proud to release Singles 06-07–a collection of all his out-of-print material, re-mastered by the Tard himself. It's finally possible to hear these gems in one straight shot, sounding better than ever, without flipping over a pile of seven inch platters. The CD version of Singles 06-07 includes a DVD showcasing some choice live performances of Reatard and his incredible live backing band, the Boston Chinks.
924 GILMAN STREET"Let's Talk About Tact And Timing…" (virus381 2008) DVD Director Jack Curran's debut feature, 924 Gilman Street, is an ambitious documentary that chronicles the 21-year history of the volunteer-run, all-ages venue in Berkeley, California and captures a music scene still thriving today on creativity and a sense of camaraderie.In 924 Gilman Street, Curran crafts an intimate portrait of a small punk venue that continues to foster a vital music scene, and most importantly, a sense of hope that punk principles and practices can build a successful, long-running community.
Amebix - "No Sanctuary- The Spiderleg Recordings" virus382 (2008)In the wake of Crass, the UK birthed a large scene of anarcho-punk bands such as Subhumans, Rudimentary Peni, Flux Of Pink Indians, and, perhaps the best known of all, Amebix. Their seminal Arise album, originally released by Alternative Tentacles in 1985, remains one of the genre's ultimate statements, featuring elements of Black Sabbath, Motorhead, and Venom infused with a healthy dose of early punk's gutter grime and Crass' confrontational imagery.
Bonnie "Prince" Billy - "Lie Down in the Light" Drag City 2008Bonnie 'Prince' Billy is letting the sun shine in so you can Lie Down In The Light. Before you get undressed, we're talking about a brand-new twelve-song album of excellent new songs and sounds, okay? Get that thong back up your crack and listen! Bristling with guitar strings and laced with harmonies, Lie Down In The Light is the brightest album to date from the Bonnie 'Prince.'

When I first published The Good Mood Diet, I had a great time traveling around the country speaking to all kinds of audiences on my book tour. One of my favorite stops were college campuses. Now I frequently receive questions about how to apply the principles from the book while eating in college and university cafeterias. Here are a few tips.
1. Eat from the "Feel Great Foods" list.
The concept of "feeding your brain" really resonates with students. And since you are students, you are probably great with lists. Start with the "Feel Great Foods" list. One group of girls on a campus copied the list out of the book, enlarged it, and put it up on the wall in their cafeteria. It not only reminded the students about foods that make them feel good, but it ultimately influenced the daily menus served in the cafeteria.
2. Eat breakfast!
I know it's early, but get up and eat breakfast. It's usually the best, most edible meal at a cafeteria, and makes a huge difference in how you feel and perform for the rest of the day. Research is clear on many counts: people who eat breakfast control their body weight better; people who eat breakfast think more clearly and perform mental tasks at higher levels; and people who eat breakfast lead healthier lives, compared to those who skip breakfast.
3. Eat regularly, about every 3 hours.
You will probably have to have some snacks in your room to do this, but it will help you feel energized and focused, and help to limit random snacking of foods that don't help you feel great. Foods to have on hand, and to throw in a backpack or book bag include:
yogurt, mozzarella cheese sticks and other small wrapped hard cheese, hard boiled eggs, turkey jerky, fresh and dried fruit, nuts, small packs of vegetables, whole grain crackers.
4. Always combine proteins, carbohydrates and feel great fats every time you eat, except around exercise.
The 3 macronutrients work in concert with each other to fuel your brain and your body, and support mental and physical health and performance. Fats slow digestion, so avoid them immediately around exercise.
5. If you're feeling out of control with your diet, keep a food journal.
You really just need to create some new habits, and the best way to turn old habits into new ones is to write down what you are doing. It's just like any kind of learning: do it, say it, write it down. You are creating new pathways in your brain, and eliminating the old ones. The more repetitions that you have of the new habits, the more defined the brain pathways become. It takes time, and it takes effort, but it works. Just like college.
6. Get some real exercise.
College is stressful and sedentary, a negative combination. Exercise helps us not only relieve stress, but changes the biochemistry in the brain to enhance our ability to cope with stress. Taking the time to exercise will increase your work efficiency, helping you to work smarter, not harder. Walking around campus is great daily activity, but it doesn't get your heart pumping, your blood flowing, and your muscles contracting the way that concerted exercise does. Find an activity that you like, and do it. It will make you feel noticeably better.
7. Request a feel great foods care package.
I have a daughter in college right now, and I know that it's hard to take control of your food. It's especially tricky when you live in the dorm. Instead of sending cookies and candy in care packages, I send her dried fruit and nuts. I even send my homemade salad dressing. She supplements with some veggies and cheese in a small fridge. That way when she's studying late into the night she has feel great foods to eat, rather than the ubiquitous fried snack foods that make her feel sluggish and sleepy.
You don't have to make all these changes at once. Choose one or two that seem doable, and try them for a week. Once you get those down, add another, and then another. You'll be feeling great in no time!
Yours in a good mood,
Dr. Susan Kleiner

Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM) leader and MLA Akbaruddin Owaisi on Tuesday underwent medical tests at a government hospital here as the police wanted to determine whether he was well enough to be quizzed in connection to hate speech cases filed against him.
Amid tight security, a police team took him to Gandhi Hospital in Hyderabad from his residence, where he underwent medical tests.
According to reports, a team of doctors, including a cardiologist, orthopedician and general surgeon, examined Owaisi.
Owaisi´s personal doctors, present at the hospital, were not allowed to enter the examination room, reports said.
Meanwhile, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Tuesday slammed the Andhra Pradesh government for not taking instant action against the MIM leader.
Speaking to media, BJP spokesperson Balbir Punj said: "Somewhere, the Andhra Pradesh Government and the Owaisi clan, they are mixed up. It is a fixed match."
"Owaisi has made a highly criminal and an anti-national speech. Any serious government would arrest right at the time he stepped out of aircraft and would not have allowed the crowd there," he said.
Police on Monday went to Owaisi´s residence to question him over the purported hate speeches.
The police arrived at his residence with a team of government doctors after the controversial politician sought four days to appear before the police for allegedly making inflammatory speeches, media reports said.
Owaisi has been booked in three different "hate speech" cases and was asked to appear before the police on Monday.
The Andhra Pradesh leader returned from London on the same day and was greeted by a large number of his supporters.
He was in London for treatment of intestinal injuries that he had suffered when he was attacked by rivals over a land dispute.
On Saturday, Akbaruddin´s brother and Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi told NDTV that Akbaruddin would surrender once he returned from London.
"My brother will not run away from the law," he said.

Thank y'all for your kind words.
I realize this isn't traditional colors for a quilt.
Most of it was made from scraps/left-overs.
My goal is to try and use what I've got, only buying what I need to finish up a quilt.
As I could never live long enough to use up all my fabric!
very nicely done... bright and cheerful

Why? Because you can! And pickle, and jam, or otherwise celebrate the resurgence of the domestic arts our forebears held so dear. Put on your best apron and step into our kitchen, won't you?
Raising our own meat chickens has been a truly liberating food experience for our family. We truly appreciate every bite of pastured chicken that we put in our mouths, and we work hard to not waste a bit. The hard work pays off on the table!
Did you know that wood ash can be used for keeping mites at bay? The next time you clean your fireplace, keep your chickens in mind by storing some of the ashes for them. It's a hen's best kept beauty secret.
Choosing the right breed of chicken is a lot like dating. Well, not really, but there are serious matters of compatibility at stake and hundreds of breeds to choose from. Before making a commitment, take a moment to consider your "type."
This is a work in progress, so the how to's will be provided in future posts. But just the same, here is the recipe I plan to use for homegrown chicken feed. When they eat right, so do you!
A few years ago, we had an absolute disaster in our flock that could have been easily prevented. Ever since then I've been telling everyone I can about it so that other people don't have to go through the same experience.
Let's face it, when you have a flock of chickens, you're rollin' in the eggs. I have flock of 14 hens. In a typical day, one's broody, one's molting, and a couple of others are otherwise takin' the day off. I'm still collecting about 10 eggs per day.
Some advice on chicken butchering
Last year one of my friends raised chickens to order so I got some beautiful, heritage chickens from them. This year they moved into town and couldn't raise meat chickens so I talked my Dad into getting some :)
If you've raised baby chicks or you see some in your future, one of the questions you'll ask is, "How can you tell the males from the females?" Jillian shows us how to sex baby chicks like the big hatcheries do!

The Dark Knight Rises actor Tom Hardy is in talks to play the Kray twins in a new film out their notorious life, it has been reported.
The thriller - which has a working title of Legend - is said to be written and directed by Brian Helgeland (LA Confidential) and is expected to shoot in the UK later this year.
The British actor has a number of projects that he is considering and the film about the unique relationship between gangsters Ronald and Reginald Kray is one, claim Screen Daily.
In 1990 the twins were portrayed by Spandau Ballet's Martin and Gary Kemp in The Krays.
Helgeland is said to have spoken about the project at a Writer's Guild of America event in LA in October last year, revealing that he would be concentrating on the life of Reggie Kray as he sought to control the psychotic tendencies of his younger twin.
The writer-director spent time researching the project in London where he is reported to have met with Krays associates, according to LA Wave.
If the project does go ahead it will add to Hardy's busy schedule as he has upcoming roles which include Warner Bros' reboot Mad Max: Fury Road and thriller Child 44.
Hardy has also signed up for the second series of Peaky Blinders which will air at the on BBC2 in autumn 2014.
The actor is also the lead in Elton John biopic Rocketman, which is due to shoot later in the year.
The living legend has told of his delight that Hardy had been cast to play him in a movie about his life.
Speaking on The Graham Norton Show, he said: "I've spent a lot of time with Tom already and we get on like a house on fire. We are very much alike - you wouldn't think so and certainly not physically."

Tim Pawlenty reports raising $160,000 in the first ten days of his start-up committee for president.
The former Minnesota governor opened his exploratory committee for president on March 21st. Several people donated to his campaign, including his former chief of staff, the former finance chair for his federal PAC, the Chair of the Minnesota Commission on Judicial Selection and the former managing partner of the San Francisco Giants.
Pawlenty's advisers asked donors to wait until April 1 to write checks to his PAC so he would make bigger headlines when he reported his second quarter numbers in July.
Pawlenty spent $43,000 of his funds on travel, consulting and office supplies.

I really just have no idea what I'm smelling here but I can tell you this..
This has a very strange cereal/oaty/biscuit type note in the opening which took my by surprise, it was slightly bizarre. Especially paired together with a somewhat sour floral-like note.
It doesn't hang around too long though thankfully, it then turns REALLY beautiful.
It's a crisp floral with a touch of sweetness but it's no way as realistically foody as the opening. It's really sophisticated in the dry down and something I would totally wear again. It doesn't smell like a Mugler to me.
I can feel a similar floral tone to the other one of this line I have tried which is "Dis moi" that one felt a lot like Alien to me but this is different.
Hmm....it's a tricky one for sure..
Agree that this smells toasty dusty almost salty!
I splurged on this, based on the reviews i've read here. I am a Mugler fanatic, i think i have over 20 of his perfumes alone. Out of all, this is a first one i absolutely hated! I had to return it, as i didn't see any point in hanging onto something i would never use.
First of, i have to point that i have never smelt anything like this in my entire life. Doesn't smell like any food i had, nor any perfume or cosmetic i have owned before. It's bordering on offensive (as a perfume) and on "I have to taste this" (as a food).
My husband, who has never hated any of my perfumes, including Angel,thought it's very odd, not very sexy and certainly not perfume-y.
It has absolutely nothing to do with Alien, resemblance to it is non-existing. It has nothing to do with jasmine either. It has nothing to do with madeleines also, as we have these occasionally with our morning coffee. It's just odd. Very odd indeed.Smelled like toasted dough of some kind, not necessarily sweet, but dough nevertheless.
In any case, this confused the heck out of me, so it had to go. Mugler had to be high when he let this one pass!
Oh no, I was so excited to get this and I hate it... It's a bit toasty dusty at first but after that it smells like your skin does right after using a sunbed , not after sunbathing in the Mediterranean sun:(
All that is mixed with synthetic and old ladyish jasmine (ducks for cover from the fans). I do not get the Alien resemblance at all, neither do I get all the lovely experiences other Fragranticans have had (boo for this).
It's nothing I would ever wear outside to smell nice, smells like an experiment, like a weird smell, not like perfume.
I do not find it similar to Jeux dePeau, which is more bearable albeit also not a 'perfume'.
I truly don't know why my nose has TOTALLY stopped liking Mugler's "jasmine"......I love jasmine! And every one I try it is so harsh and chemical smelling to me. I used to love them...a LOT of them!
If you could bake jasmine cookies with walnuts inside - that would be it. The warmest, driest, surrealistic, yet very natural jasmine. Mind you, it is not fresh and moist. More like getting fried on the bright sunshine flowery-bush. As usual with Mugler's house - innovative and very avant-garde. Will be loved by those, who appreciate Luten's Jeaux de Peau and Praline de Santal of Generale. Yet Miroir des Envies more bitchy and on "I will eat you!" side, rather than "Eat Me, babe"
This is just delicious! Sweet and warm, yet something about it is unsettling. I get toast when I first spray it. That note stays, but settles. Then the sweet jasmine comes out. I get another note, but I am not sure what it is. It ties the jasmine and toast together and sweetens the pot. This is unique, as all Mugler's are. Silage is moderate and longevity is pretty good-6-7 hours at this point. This is a delightful, delicious perfume...
I like everything by Mugler. This is an interesting creation. It reminds me very much of Taste of Fragrance Alien because it smells like jasmine and caramel. It is very gourmand and actually reminds me a lot of caramel corn--salty, buttery, nutty, and sweet. I did not know anything about notes of buttered toast or whatever the case might be, but it does indeed smell like buttered toast. I find sillage to be moderate. While I do like this perfume, I prefer Taste of Fragrance Alien, which I find more mouthwatering. The butter note here is prominent, but it is a tad on the synthetic side, so I can not fully enjoy it.
I simply love this perfume, makes me think of Sunday mornings in bed with toast.
I'm wearing this beauty in the summer as I feel the warmth extends the perfume and it fits right in the summer vibe. It lasts quite long with me and people love the smell, it's something original and totally different. Love!
"Morning toast, sun-drenched skin, and jasmine" are notes reported in this addictive perfume.
On my skin, this plays like Galliano, Frangelico and a touch of cream--liquorous anise, vanilla, herbs, citrus and hazelnuts. Jasmine doesn't seem to make an appearance but fortunately her understudy--something akin to cool, waxy orange blossoms--makes a showing.
Thoroughly addictive, comforting and intoxicating. Yes, I'd like another shot please!
This is an extraordinary scent. It is yes a mirror of envy, and totally convinces me that brilliant perfumers are true artists....there is a metallic glassy edge to the adoration of a beautiful image with the hot edge of envy . Whoever arranged the notes (actually we already know she is ) a genius.... I love this
Hazelnut! I have not see anything like this.
buttered toast and jasmine... gorgeous.
I swapped it some time ago. Funny,but I couldn't stand the hazelnut and some icy notes mixed together. I got them there:)
I absolutely love it. It's reminiscent of Alien, but it's like a faint memory of it. It feels warm and close to the skin with its addictive flower.
Where should I start? I do not feel prepared to review such masterpiece, but the urge to do so is so strong within me. I love this gem. And I feel blessed and lucky to love this gem. I honestly cannot detect the jasmine. Well, at least the jasmine is not like the one in Alien or A La Nuit. No, it is blended very well with the bread or biscotti note everyone was talking about. I never smell biscotti, but at least I have seen one. But I can detect the biscotti here. I normally never do. Miroir des Envies is a chihuahua to me. Why, it is so strong if smelled from the nozzle, or, because I bought a decant, the juice itself. But, after sprayed, it won't be that strong. In fact, it vanish into the thin air, just like that in a few hours. Or maybe my nose was anosmic, tired of smelling this beauty. For me, it is very enjoyable and I even thought this can be a fit for everybody. But no. From my family and friends who have sniffed this, my father is the only person to love this. Others complained that it is too strong, or something like that. They don't like it. The aroma has captivated me. The smell of the freshly baked biscotti, very natural!
One note listed? What's up with that? There's so much more than that going on here. I get what everyone is saying about the "bread" or "biscotti" note. Personally the note is more like biscotti, but not with any spices or anything, more of a yeasty-bready smelling biscotti, and NOT sweet or dipped in anything. Just the biscotti alone and naked. It's kinda reminiscent of the bready notes in Serge Lutens Jeux de Peau. There is definitely something weird there. Not weird in a bad way, just weird in a Mugler way ;) The scent is not in any way sweet or gourmand at all, not even a little bit, but it is comforting in the same manner that sweets are. I have to give it to him, this is quite a unique scent. You could say all jasmine is the same but you'd be dead wrong. Mugler has a way with florals that make them much more appealing to me than anyone I've discovered thus far. I don't know if everyone would really appreciate this scent though. It's quite unusual, and although I like the way it smells on my skin, I'm not sure I would like to smell like this all day. Hope that makes sense.
10/10 for creativity
9/10 for sillage
8.5/10 for wearability
9.5/10 for likeability!
EDIT: I just got myself a bottle of this! It's amazing!!!! The mirrored box is gorgeous, and so is the bottle. The scent is even better when it's sprayed on. I am so in love! <3 This is seriously the most unique jasmine scent I have ever smelled and I am completely INTOXICATED by its aroma. Just divine. You must sample this if you have any affinity for jasmine!
Excerpt from Thierry Mugler's "Mirroir Mirroir Catalog"
Mirroir des Envies = Mirror of Desires
Composition: An addictive floral
Unexpected notes of toast and sun-warmed skin contrast with and update a generous jasmine heart.
Clearly not for everybody. I am in love with this perfume. The composition above is missing the toasted bread component, which is very eminent.
Borderline schizophrenic.
Where to start....
My boy-cat had smelly paws. They didn't smell cheesey or dirty, & they weren't even unpleasant to sniff, per se. I would often awake to find a large, black pad hovering above my lips, trying to steal my breath. My velvet theif had feet that smelt of clean, dusty fur, dry, pale biscuits, aga-toasted breadcrumbs & aged candle-wax. My feline friend also had a penchant for padding across window cills & shelves, knocking treasures onto the floor with his furry plus-fours & fancy tail, much to my chagrin.
On first sniff, Miroir des Envies is a black cat, sat alone licking its paws in a beautiful french renaissance bedroom. The room is ransacked, the Duchess lies dead. Confusion reigns around the little furry island of calm. What? Why? How?
The mirror tells a tale...pad, pad, pad. Smash! A bowl of toasted, sugared hazelnuts & almonds shatters. Bang! A tea tray of brown toast spread with honeycomb hits the floor. Crash! The jasmine plant is upended & the waxy buds scatter. Thud! A full bottle of Alien parfum falls heavily onto the sleeping beauty's head. Pad, pad, pad...
M des E is a twisted little scent dressed up as sweetness & light. It has many facets & yet it does not give up its secrets easily. No matter how much you may love & hate it (& you will, with equal measure) you will be compelled to keep sniffing, searching for its breadcrumb trails as it pads across your skin.
For me, it is not a scent I would comfortably wear even though I like loud, oddball perfumes....& yet I keep re-visiting my sample. I simply can't keep my paws off it.
M des E = Mad as a bag of cats - one to sample for curiosity & kicks.
This smells like the finest, homeade, freshly baked, gourmet hazlenut biscotti with freshly picked jasmine in a clear watered vase, nearby! it's lightly sweet with a dab of salt and a nutty nuance, maybe some honey, oh and the jasmine ,,,this must be some super jasmine grown in some distant foregin land maybe some hidden place in tibet! lol, and i agree with Arkangel.... I sprayed a little on my neck and wrists and mmmmm, smelled so wonderfully delish, but it's very gentle that you forget it;s there, then every so often you are rewarded, you get a whiff of it and i think...ooh riight I nearly forgot i had this on, and the process repeats ..lol, and it stays this way for a good 6 hours on me,, very delicious , very relaxed, warm, one of the most comforting perfumes Ive ever tried, possibly at the very top of that list. its like the gourmet mac an cheese of perfume! lol No it doesn't smell like cheese,
The level of soft sweetness is so perfect i know this is described often with perfume, and we mean it when we say it, but then you smell something like mirrior envies.. and you forget how nice the others were, they no longer compare. This is yummy shortbread with gorgeous musk and jasmine with a delicate wood base. just so irresitably decidant, very consuming, very addictive. Half of me would love this more with a stronger silage, but the other half thinks it;s perfect the way it is and wouldnt want to ruin a great thing!
Also so unique! Just haven't the slightest idea what parfume smells similar to this. Too bad there isn;t a tea note, then this could be named 'tea and biscuits' honeyed tea with almond biscotti .... I'd definently buy a flanker of this, though i doubt that;s likely to happen
A true work of art
By the way I've never wanted to eat jasmine until now
And to the comments below, I really dont pick up anything burning, or plastic ..at all!
and "offensive''? to me this is one of the most inoffensive scents i've ever experienced ,,,i wish my feet smelled like this LOL
guessing at the notes.. other than jasmine, hazlenut, either beezwax or honey orris root, musk, blonde woods, some kind of light resin, benzoin maybe, but very little, iris and lily
And I think Luisa nailed it! I wouldn;t doubt for a second if that was the inspiration for this perfume.
Wanted to also point out that dough or what;s also referred to as footy smell i think is the lily, I personally love the lilly but i have read and heard others make comments about the lilly that it smells meaty or like cheese or feet, to them, lol ...well asl long as you dont have any lily phobias I think you;ll love this!
Actually just moments after first spraying this, the jasmine is quite prominent at this point its a very sexy and also comforting scent, but that quickly drys down to a purely comforting scent.
I own juiliette has a gun;s 'not a perfume; which only has one noet that is the vintage 50s synthetic amber extract..which is very expensive and very alluring... i added that on top of envies and it remains the same but someone makes the jasmine for apparent and also adds it;s one little sexy and alluring element, and well you have what is much closer to that initial spritz smell, it;s envies but with a touch of sex appeal. This is my new favorite recipie x)
I bet adding a simple amber scent like mark jacobs edt would work wonders for a little sexy appeal as well ;)
"Subtle" is the last word you'd associate with a Mugler fragrance, until now. That Mugler signature is also made known throughout transitioning... that glimmer or sparkle if you will. Des Envies is a quiet perfume, but when you've forgotten it's presence... it cuddles with you in a way, brushing your senses at random. Warm, gentle and comforting every moment it rises to be acknowledged. The colder it is outside, the more Des Envies will reveal itself. If this fragrance is reminiscent of any toasted bread, it would be Portuguese sweet bread with a hazelnut spread.
Miroir des Envies is a very interesting fragrance, one that I've worn three days in a row in order to gather any kind of opinion on the way it smells and speaks to me.
It's a jasmine fragrance alright, there's no doubt about it, however it's not necessarily pretty or flowery. The jasmine blooms in this fragrance, have been burnt or roasted alongside an array of hazelnuts and cashews.
It has a rather smokey and foody quality, which leans towards being gourmand, but not in a sweet sense of the word. The scent of toast is pretty spot-on, as I find this fragrance more savoury than sweet.
Many are referring to this fragrance as being a little similar to Alien, also by the same house. I know they're both dominated by jasmine, however I find Alien far more refreshing and a touch more feminine. Miroir des Envies is quite daring and strange, perhaps the name Alien was more suited to this Mugler creation.
This fragrance brings to mind marmalade toast, cocoa powder, an assortment of unsalted nuts and burning plastic. It's very strange, at times a little unpleasant, yet overall the kind of fragrance that you can't stop inhaling and spritzing on just to experience the weirdness of it all.
The longevity is good, very long lasting, yet the sillage is quite intimate and soft. I also find the scent a little soapy at times, but it's not really a clean scent. It's really hard to describe.
Jasmine? maybe, Alien-like. I don`t know where Mr. Mugler grows this kind of jasmine, but I can easily imagine myself smoking it and may be, even getting high.
The first whiff was a total surprise. I get a scent of freshly boiled millet pudding.It`s foody, but not in a gourmand sort of way - it does not make your mouth water or your brain crave sweets, but believe me, for the next 20 minutes your nose will be super-glued to your wrist and all kind of question marks are going to flash in your very mind. Is it eatable? is it flowery? is it something alive? is there a base? what the heck is this smell?!!!
I started to thing that it all begins to remind me of Ange ou Demon,but heartless and baseless - only the ghost of it`s opening notes. I think I rather like it.
How is it that the only note here is jasmine yet this smells nutty? Thanks for clarifying that there are in fact other notes here Celphie - i thought i was going nuts. Anyway there is something disturbing me about this scent, and I thought it might just be me but a few friends I asked to smell this equally turned up their noses, no one liked it. It smells strongly of hazelnut and the mixture of this and jasmine is just cloying, plasticky and a bit sickening, in my opinion. I usually love gourmands but this is such a weird smell.
There are two notes missing here: it's got toast in it, as well as "solar notes" (don't ask, I read this in another website, though I might be wrong)
At first whiff this smells really warm, comforting, nutty and gourmand, but not in a sticky cloying floral/fruity/sugary/caramel/marshmallow/cottoncandy/slap-you-in-the-face kind of gourmand, no. It's more like breakfast in bed croissant on a morning in France, next to a vase of fresh flowers. Later, the jasmine becomes more prominent, but the nutty warmth is still there.In the ens it smelled a bit like chocolate to me.
I smelled this through a tester, and later from a sample vial. It's lasting power is quite strong, and though the scent itself is quite strong, it's not overwhelming, though it can be annoying in summer. Best used in winter when you really want to feel warm and toasty and enveloped in cozy blanket of pastry, jasmine and sunshine.
Ok I'm off to buy my own bottle before I get the "I'm sorry we're sold out" retort.
Got my decant today! Couldn't agree more- beautiful jasmine fragrance but not overpowering
Ohhh!!!!! a sweet, mild and warm jasmine... this fragrance is a time machine, it's smells like my grandma kitchen when she baked sweet bread (the windows kitchen was near the garden) and of course, there was a jasmine plant.... it's really a conforting and relaxing perfume. It made me smile inmediately... good memories (great staying power.... but it's not a loud fragrance)

Unincorporated Associations and Tort Liability
McGregor-Lowndes, Myles & Richards, Rhonda A. (2007) Unincorporated Associations and Tort Liability. Queensland Lawyer, 27(1), pp. 257-263.
|PDF (72kB)
This article examines recent authorities both in Australia and the United Kingdom that consider tort liability issues involving unincorporated associations, their members and officers. The general principle is that a member of a member's club owes no duty to the other members other than that of an ordinary individual in the absence of any club rule to the contrary. First the liability of a member of an unincorporated association is examined, followed by that of the committee members as a whole and then individual officers. Finally, the duty owed to a volunteer in the course of an unincorporated association's activities is discussed.

Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.

Chunky Contrast Twist Wool Rug - Grey/Blue
$704 - $714 Final Sale

The natural beauty of wool gives this rug richness and sculptural character. Artisans twist the plush ropes from hand-spun blended yarns, then weave them over an azure ground. Our rugs are artisan crafted and no two are alike. Given their handwoven nature, slight variations in shading and size are inherent to the design. Imported. 50% wool, 50% viscose.

Podcast: Cloud Computing, Software Development, Testing and Security
Last month I was interviewed for a podcast with SearchSoftwareQuality.com.
We talked about some of the advantages Cloud Computing could bring to software development and testing. Notice I say 'could' - I continue to see great potential benefits but some of these require us to rethink how we do things as 'end-users' and depend on the Cloud Computing ecosystem maturing enough to deliver them (e.g. security monitoring of Cloud API calls).
This was recorded prior to the Microsoft Azure announcement hence the "software + services" model wasn't covered.
Anyway, the podcast is broken into 3 x 8 minute segments (I think I broke the spoken word count ;-):
- General benefits of cloud computing for software development
- Cloud computing's impact on agile development practices, software testing, and e-commerce
- Security elements surrounding cloud computing, such as software monitoring, implementing security patches, and the reduction of data leakage.
You can access the podcast segments here.
My thanks to Michelle and Keith over at TechTarget for the opportunity.
What About You?
Apart from general feedback on whether the podcast was helpful or not, I'm interested to hear if you've started any Cloud based development projects - please share in the comments.
