Next U-M Game: Saturday, Nov. 26 -- vs. Ohio State (Michigan Stadium), Noon
ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- The University of Michigan football team (No. 20 AP/No. 18 USA Today Coaches) routed Nebraska (No. 17 AP/No. 16 USA Today Coaches), 45-17, on Saturday (Nov. 19) at Michigan Stadium for the Wolverines' first win against a ranked opponent this season. Michigan heavily outgained (418-260) and out-possessed (41:13-18:39) the Cornhuskers to improve to a perfect 7-0 record at the Big House in 2011.
Michigan rode the legs of junior/sophomore running back Fitzgerald Toussaint (Youngstown, Ohio/Liberty)and junior quarterback Denard Robinson (Deerfield Beach, Fla./Deerfield Beach). Toussaint finished with a career-high 29 carries for 138 yards and two touchdowns, while Robinson earned 23 carries for 83 yards and two rushing scores. Toussaint eclipsed 100 rushing yards for the fourth time this season and the second time in as many weeks.
Through the air, Robinson completed 11-of-18 passes for 180 yards and two touchdowns. Robinson's passing touchdowns were to junior/sophomore wide receiver Jeremy Gallon (Apopka, Fla./Apopka) and senior wideout Martavious Odoms (Pahokee, Fla./Pahokee). Gallon recorded a team-high three catches for 34 yards and Odoms tallied two receptions for a season-best 47 yards.
Nebraska only reached the red zone twice and held possession for only 18:39 as Michigan posted six tackles-for-loss, three sacks, three fumble recoveries and a blocked punt. Senior/junior safety Jordan Kovacs (Curtice, Ohio/Clay) led the team with seven tackles and a TFL, while senior/junior middle linebacker Kenny Demens (Oak Park, Mich./Detroit Country Day) registered five tackles, an assisted sack and a pass breakup. Fifth-year senior defensive lineman Ryan Van Bergen added two TFLs -- bringing his total to seven in the past four games -- and a sack.
After both defenses forced three-and-outs to open the first quarter, Robinson led the Wolverines on an eight-play, 79-yard touchdown drive. Robinson sparked the drive on the first play, sprinting for 16 yards before being tripped up. Then, facing a third-and-eight, Robinson lobbed a 46-yard pass to senior/junior wide receiver Roy Roundtree (Trotwood, Ohio/Trotwood-Madison) down the right sideline inside the Nebraska five-yard line. Robinson capped the scoring drive two plays later with a six-yard pass to a crossing Gallon in the end zone for a 7-0 lead.
Junior/sophomore placekicker Brendan Gibbons (West Palm Beach, Fla./Cardinal Newman) drilled a career-long 42-yard field goal into the wind to add three points to Michigan's lead with 2:03 left in the first quarter. The Cornhuskers recovered quickly, putting 10 points on the scoreboard in a 4:05 span to tie the game with a 54-yard, play-action touchdown pass and a 51-yard field goal.
Michigan retook the lead on the ensuing drive, marching 74 yards in 12 plays in 6:07. Robinson converted two third-and-six situations with an eight-yard completion to fifth-year senior wideout Junior Hemingway (Conway, S.C./Conway) and an eight-yard rush to extend the drive. Facing his third third down of the drive, Robinson ran to the left on a designed keeper and burst through the hole untouched for a 14-yard touchdown, giving the Wolverines a 17-10 lead at halftime.
The Wolverines pulled away in the third quarter, capitalizing on Nebraska special-teams mistakes. On the kickoff to open the second half, senior/junior wide receiver Terrence Robinson (Klein, Texas/Oak) drilled the Nebraska returner, forcing his first career fumble that sophomore cornerback Courtney Avery (Mansfield, Ohio/Lexington) -- who also notched a TFL and pass breakup -- jumped on at the Cornhusker 33-yard line. After a 23-yard throwback screen to Gallon set up Michigan near the goal line, Robinson scored his second rushing touchdown of the day from one-yard out on a play-action rollout to the right pylon.
Nebraska was forced to punt on the next possession, but the punter dropped the snap. By the time he picked the football back up, sophomore/freshman safety Josh Furman (Annapolis, Md./Old Mill Senior) blocked the punt -- Michigan's first since 2009. The Wolverines appeared to have stalled at the Nebraska five-yard line, setting up a short field-goal attempt, but sophomore wideout and holder Drew Dileo (Greenwell Springs, La./Parkview Baptist) took the snap and scurried four yards for a first down. Toussaint bounced to the outside on the next play, scoring on a one-yard touchdown run untouched to give Michigan a 31-10 advantage with 5:03 remaining in the third quarter.
After the Cornhuskers scored on a well-designed, three-yard option play late in the third quarter, the Wolverines added two more touchdowns. Robinson threw a perfect 38-yard touchdown strike to Odoms in the back of the end zone, and Toussaint added his second rushing score of the game on a tackle-breaking, 31-yard run following Nebraska's third fumble with 7:33 left in the fourth quarter for Michigan's final touchdown.
Michigan closes the 2011 regular season at home against arch-rival Ohio State next Saturday (Nov. 26). Kickoff is noon on ESPN or ABC.

*Do you have to size up to fit over something such as a padraig slipper or are they sized to fit over shoes to begin with?
*liner or no liner? Which to you prefer and why? I wonder if we would be fine without since we already have padraigs or would they be warmer with the liners?
*How well have the soles held up with walking on trails or dirt roads? Are they better suited to snow and grass? Some winters here are just rainy cold and wet while others are snowy. my daughter hates her rubber boots which aren't warm anyway. I don't think they are good for her feet anyway. I just wonder how well Stonz would hold up for us.
Thanks Mamas!
Sue, Mama to Fiona Aileen (2/1/09) and Maeve Penelope (10/7/11)
We didn't do a liner. I'd add wool socks to keep him warm.
I'd say they don't do well on cement. Dirt, grass, and snow are good. They also can't go in puddles...learned this the hard way.
So they are good for being in a carrier (Ergo etc) being in a stroller and doing minor treading around.

I would go up a little bit if you plan to use the liners or go over a pair of shoes.
We did get the liners - you could certainly live without them but they are an easy solution for times when you want a warmer boot.
Ours look brand new after a full winter's use but ds didn't walk a lot outside last year & even less on rough surfaces so I'm not sure how they would hold up under those conditions.
I got comments on those boots everywhere we went - they really are terrific. Oh & easy to get on & keep on!
Doula mama to dd (Oct '11) & ds (Oct '08) and expecting (Apr '17)
I got a pair off of Craigslist last year for $20. I put them right over her Padraigs and she was good to go. The liners are a nuisance, and costly, in my opinion, although my friend loved the set. We had no problems just putting the Stonz over her Padraigs.
I'm not getting a pair this year, as I don't think they'd do great for full-time walkers. I'm skeptical that the sole would hold up to that much wear and tear, especially if they're going to be your main boot. The upper is not water proof.
We're looking at Kamiks this year. I can't make a link for some reason, but you can check out the website at www.kamik.com and go to the toddler section.
We will NOT be buying those new! So expensive! I've got my eye on CL for a pair.
The Stonz held up great, considering that they were used for two seasons already, and still looked great when I handed them on. Just don't have much form to the bottoms though.

I live in Vancouver in fact very close to Stonz storage facility. The quality of booties used to be very good.They used to make them here in Vancouver but they have moved production to China, do you know Walmart sells the same booties for $10.
I have a November baby, so last winter he was a fairly new walker. I wouldn't use Stonz for a kid that was walking around a lot outside--they don't have real soles, just fabric cover. They were great for popping him in the carrier and running errands (they are tall enough that you don't get a gap between socks and shoes if their pants get pulled up a bit when their legs are bent in the carrier). We barely used the liners.
This year we got kamik boots with a liner--although we've barely had a winter! By spring, he'll be able to wear them as wellies without the liner, so although they were pricey, I feel like we got a twofer.
We have the kamik boots and have really liked them. If you get the ones that velcro (elastic closure with velcro on the end of the elastic) they open up very wide for kiddos who can't figure out how to get their feet into boots yet.
Two moms and two boys enjoying the truth that love always wins!!!
Stonz are not at all like Walmart booties, or any other knock offs I have seen.
They don't fall apart, easy to put on and they actually do stay on!
Really I think you get what you pay for. :)
The Stonz plus liners we bought last year for my then 18 month old (who had been walking since 9 months) held up very well. She has small feet (still a size 5) which made proper winter boots hard to find for her and so we went with them again this year, but these ones have been destroyed. We have had a warmer winter, which means more walking on cement, so that is probably the reason. We walk a lot: I wear my soles out all the time as well.
I find it extremely frustrating that I can't get something like the Kamiks in her size.

I have to admit that I have been shamelessly ignoring my NaKniSweMo commitment in favor of adorable polar bears. I mean, really. Look at them. Would you want to knit a 2x2 ribbed cuff if you had those adorable marching polar bears on the needles?
But, December is closing fast. I finished the last 10 rows of the sweater on the way home from Target in the car last night. (It was dark and I couldn't read the chart for the 2nd row of snowflakes on the chart). I used the Vogue Knitting sewn bind off for 2x2 rib today while Will painted the garage door and the kids painted on their easel. The sweater is now blocking by the dryer and I can return to my polar bears with a clear conscience!

A Confession and... a change?
A corollary of this is that I don't announce my goals very often. I have lots of FO posts, but I'm always shy about goals. What if I fall short? You know, not be perfect?
I'm going to put it out there, this time. I'm trying NaKniSweMo. Yesterday, a box came in the mail with Wendy Bernard's Custom Knits and 9 skeins of gray Merino Style. I grabbed my size 5 needles and cast on Pink. But in gray. The color is actually called Hawk, but it's grey, so I can't help but call this sweater... The Gygax Sweater. Thought I was more of a Forgotten Realms fan, myself.
And if you get the reference, come roll some dice with us. We just picked up the 4th edition books and I'm slowly learning the system.
I'm going to try to finish this month, but without going nuts. It's a goal, and I'm putting out there. And, you know what? If I don't make, there are no consequences. It's okay.

One piece Gusseted Fingerless Mitts
I've knit two sets of simple fingerless mitts in the past week. The kids seem to like them because they can still play and draw in the car without taking off (and losing) their gloves.
A while ago, I knit these. They were a huge hit. Then the little dude wanted fingerless mitts like his sister. In a vain attempt to use up the green and yellow yarns from his hat and sweater striped mitts ensued, but there's still a bunch of yarn. (48 yards)
Originally uploaded by thebookstoregirl
Then Sweet Pea left her favorite fingerless mitts at pre-school. They closed to school for a week due to the flu, so I let her pick out yarn for a back-up pair. The yarn looks red in some lights, fuschia in others. (66 yds). They're baby cashmerino on size 3 needles for a tight, warm fabric.
Originally uploaded by thebookstoregirl
I improvised both sets on 2 circular needles. They're gusseted, but instead of putting the thumb stitches on a holder before going on, I simply bound them off. Too easy for words. I think it would be too short on an adult mitt, but it works just fine the the kids'.
I'm not usually a joiner but, next up? NaKneSweMo.

Condensed and re-edited by 'BRANTON' with the permission of E.D.H.
This is a greatly condensed version of the 'DULCE BATTLE' Report. The full 166 page version of this and other E.D.H. Research Reports are available at:
Government scientists (the secret government) purportedly labored alongside an alien force to work out the sundry ways the general population could be brought under an ultimate totalitarian control that would leave humanity as little more than farm animals to be used for breeding. All of which began with a 1947 treaty signed by President Harry Truman, that set in motion a plan where the ELITE obtained alien technological secrets in exchange for permitting the aliens to abduct human subjects for their diabolical research. In time, the elite would be allowed to survive to become the overlords of the human sheep, under ultimate control of the aliens - like the dogs that watch the sheep on a human farm.
Located almost two miles beneath Archuleta Mesa on the Jicarilla Apache Indian Reservation near Dulce, New Mexico was an installation classified so secret its existence would be one of the most protected realities in the world! There was the Earth's first main joint United States Government/Alien biogenetics laboratory. Others existed in Colorado, Nevada, and Arizona, not to mention in a number of other locations like Afghanistan and Russia - but Dulce (is)/was the largest.
In an era when the officers in charge of the major military units were still part of the generation that looked on young women - potential mothers - as a treasure to be protected, to learn that thousands of young females were being abducted, and even created (cloned, etc.) for use as sex slaves by aliens was simply too much for such men to allow to continue.
The turning point came when National Security Adviser Dr. Zbigniew Brzezinski met with President Jimmy Carter in the White House on June 14, 1977 with a number of other intelligence operatives and leaders to bring the President up to speed on a number of top secret programs including 'Project Aquarius' and the work being done at Dulce, Area 51, and other secret bases. Brzezinski, a member of the power elite that backed the 'Grey' cause, never guessed that the President would be so shocked that he would soon turn to trusted military advisors in the military intelligence community for options of how to stop what had been going on.
The National Security Agency (NSA) had been secretly fighting the alien cause and the humans that worked for or with the aliens since it was established in the mid 1950s. Project Aquarius was originally established in 1953 by order of President Eisenhower and under control of NSC and MJ 12. In 1966, the Project's name had been changed from Project Gleem to Project Aquarius, and portions of it went into DEEP COVER, hidden even from the CIA and the NSC. At that point, the NSA had opened Department X (to identify and study all alien or enemy operations that could be a threat to the United States or the Human Race in general), and Department Z (to 'react' and 'neutralize' any sort of threat to the United States or the Human Race).
Under secret Presidential Order, signed by President Jimmy Carter, the NSA's Department Z, the newly established DELTA FORCE, and a specially hand-picked group of Air Force SOC, Navy SEAL, and Army Rangers were organized for a mission so secret that not even command officers were told what it was about until the night of the attack. The only 'Attack Team' leaders who knew what this would be about were the men involved in the NSA Department Z, who had been involved with fighting aliens for years. The commanding officer of the attack was none other than Captain Mark Richards, the son of the infamous "Dutchman", Major Ellis Lloyd Richards, who had been the Commander of International Security (IS) since Admiral Chester W. Nimitz died in 1966.
By 1978, the NSA Department X was warning the human commanders of new programs starting at Dulce that were so frightening that even seasoned men of war were shocked. Thousands of young human females were being 'created' in test tubes to be sex slaves for the aliens. But these clones were proving to be less than satisfying for the aliens, because they didn't suffer the same way that once free victims did. They could be engineered to provide better sexual tools for some of the stranger life forms, but they were proving to be nearly mindless, and thus couldn't react with the fear that normal young women could. For that reason, while the clone program would continue, it had been decided that the abduction program would be stepped up - with the forced 'short-term' attacks to increase by 1980 to over 100,000 a year, and the facility to be enlarged for long-term victims (who would stay there for as long as they lived) with numbers over 75,000.
The labs at Dulce started cloning human females by a process perfected in the world's largest and most advanced bio-genetic facility - Los Alamos. The elite humans who manipulated the world's governments from the shadows would soon have a disposable slave-race for medical culling of body parts and their own perverted pleasures. Like the alien Greys, the U.S. (secret) Government secretly kidnapped and impregnated young females, then removed the hybrid fetus after a three-month time period, before accelerating their growth in laboratories. Biogenetic (DNA Manipulation) programming was then instilled - many being implanted with all sorts of devices, some that allowed them to be controlled at a distance through RF (Radio Frequency) transmissions.
From: EDH Archives: Dulce Interviews; WC-289487346--80:
"Level 7 is worse. It was like a whore house for pervert ETs'. Human females were brought there for 'experiments', but you can't convince me that most of it wasn't just sadistic pleasure for the Greys. They wouldn't just impregnate the girls. They would sexually torture them for hours. Sure, there were the scientific procedures, but there were also orgies where a few pretty human females would be given to a large number of Greys for nothing less than a brutal gang-rape. And this was constant. Hundreds of Greys, and other species that seemed to be friends to the Greys, would come and go every week, for no other clear reason than to take sexual pleasure with the provided human females."
When the truth was evident that sub-humans and other creatures were being produced from abducted human females, impregnated against their will, a secret resistance group formed within the military and intelligence agencies of the U.S. Government that did not approve of the deals that had been made with the 'Off-Worlders'. Many of these brave humans would be assassinated or died under mysterious circumstance - or would be silenced in other ways. But in 1979, they would manage a victory that would cost the Greys and the humans that backed the Greys, dearly.
The Air Force Intelligence Officer that reportedly was the man who met with the Aliens at Holloman (Air Force Base) in 1964, was the legendary 'Dutchman' Ellis Lloyd Richards, Jr. - the same man who would reportedly order the attack on Dulce in 1979, and whose son, Captain Mark Richards, would lead the human attack on the facility.
The Richards' names come up time and time again when one looks into any of the mentioned Top Secret Projects that Military Intelligence or the Eyes-Only - Top Secret Agency known as International Security were involved in from World War II through the Cold War years.
The in-house political argument that developed within MAJESTIC TWELVE in the late 1970s, when the military/intelligence men objected to the deals with some of the Aliens on the side for the selfish gain of such groups as the Illuminati or the 'Club of Rome' at the expense of thousands of innocents, if not all of mankind, helped to cause the rift that would lead to the military action taken against the Dulce Facility in 1979.
Later on in the DULCE BATTLE report, it is written:
"It would be one of the Reptoids who taught several of the men involved in the attack on Dulce a number of the informative points that would first cause them to look more deeply into what was being done at the Facility, and then helped them better understand the enemy, and how to defeat them. Indeed, it would be this Reptoid who communicated the factual basis for a number of the plots being organized against humanity by a number of off-world sources, and (some of them) had proven their willingness to aid the human cause in the Battle for Central Asia in 1976, and in the August 1979 space defense of Earth against alien invaders. It was also (they) who warned of the danger of bacteria it represented to both aliens and humans.
In 1979, there were 37 alien species represented at the Dulce facility. Only 6 of those had their own space or dimensional traveling ability, while the others were guests of the Greys. All of those species that had come as guests of the Greys were there for genetic and reproductive experiments with humans - and 8 of those were also interested in humans as a SOURCE OF FOOD. Of those interested in reproductive experiments, 25 could enjoy direct intercourse with human females (although several needed the female to be placed on special hormone treatments ahead of time), and the facility apparently got the reputation for being a sexual pleasure spot for the quadrant.
Of course, not all the Reptoid-type creatures are friendly towards humans. According to Lear and others, the U.S. government may have made a 'pact' with a non-human race as early as 1933. According to some, this 'race' is not human yet claims to have had it's origin on Earth. Some sources allege that this predatory race is of a neo-saurian nature. This has led others to suggest that the dinosaurs, which ruled the surface of the Earth in prehistoric times, may not have become entirely extinct as is commonly believed, but that certain of the more intelligent and biped-hominoid mutations of that race developed a form of intellectual thought equal to or surpassing in some respects that of the human race - especially with their 'collective mind' matrix. - Branton
The theory then suggests that some of this race went into space, only to return to find that their founders on their home planet had not survived (on the surface, that is.) However, there are several reports of reptilian humanoids being encountered in deep underground natural cavern systems all over the world and in time, the space-based reptiloids learned of these. - Branton
There were a number of facts quickly put forward. For instance: One branch or mutation of the supposedly extinct Sauroid race, Stenonychosaurus, was according to paleontologists, remarkably hominoid in appearance being 3 ½ to 4 ½ feet in height with possibly greyish-green skin and three digit clawed hands and a partially-opposable 'thumb'. The opposable thumb and intellectual capacity are the only thing preventing members of the animal kingdom from challenging the human race as the masters of planet Earth. For instance: The Ape Kingdom possesses opposable thumbs yet, it does not possess the intellectual capacity to use them as humans do. The dolphins possess intellects nearing that of humans but do not possess opposable thumbs or even limbs necessary to build, etc. The cranial capacity of Stenonychosaurus was nearly twice the size of that of human beings, indicating a large and possibly advanced though not necessarily benevolent intellect.
According to researchers such as Brad Steiger, Val Valerian, TAL LeVesque and others, this may actually be the same type of entity or entities most commonly described in 'UFO' encounters, as well as the same type of creatures depicted in early 1992 in the nationally viewed CBS presentation 'INTRUDERS'.
According to Lear, the government may have established a 'treaty' with this (Reptilian) race, which they later learned to their horror was extremely malevolent in nature and were merely using the 'treaties' as a means to buy time while they methodically established certain controls upon the human race, with the ultimate goal of an absolute domination.
The fact that a base like Dulce might house dozens of 'types' and 'races' of ETs would never be admitted by most humans, and would be reduced to the stuff of legends if ever turned over to the general public. The years of work to cover up the alien threat had worked very well by 1979, and normal people would not admit seeing an alien for fear of being called crazy!
The types and races at Dulce at the time of the attack are still in question, and many races have not wanted to admit their taking part in what took place there in 1979.
Many victims find their abductors to be nothing less than brutal beasts. The casebooks of researchers are filled with incidents in which malice and hostility played a significant role in the abduction. Unfortunately, most of the victims who suffer these more vile attacks do not get the chance to make a report to any human authority about the event as they vanish and become another statistic in the growing number of missing persons across the country.
By the early 1970s, the number of these missing persons - most all young, white women, was going up. While the abductions of humans by superhuman forces of varying descriptions appeared to obey the same mechanisms worldwide, it was clear that young white women were the most frequent victims, and that there was little support for abductees should they survive.
In the more controlled environment of Dulce, researchers hadn't any disclosure problems concerning stem cell and cloning research. The fertilized eggs of hundreds of healthy young human females could be 'harvested' constantly for unlimited embryo and stem-cell research 'killing' uncounted human embryos in the search for everything from cures to alien skin infections caused by Earth germs to how to better create a sub-human slave race of cloned worker creatures.
Such research also moved into other dangerous fields, such as 'enhancing' humans into becoming creatures that would serve other alien needs. One of the more shocking of these that the 'attackers' would find in huge holding pens were the human females who had been 'enhanced' to become reproductive 'cows' as the need for human milk and reproductive systems had grown. Hundreds of young women had been 'altered' to become little more than cows.
'Free will' is always dangerous to a fascist society, or a police state! 'Free will' is what allowed a group of men to take the moral high-ground, and attack the Dulce Facility. The attack plan centered on crippling the main generator, then doing as much damage as possible while freeing as many victims as possible, started to take shape in the Fall of 1979 after the August space battle between forces of the USAF Space Command and an alien invasion force, with none other than Brigadier General Aderholt (USAF) brought in to head the organization that would be formed for the invasion of the Dulce Facility.
Funded by Texas businessman Ross Perot, CIA/DIA front man Edwin Wilson, and a massive 'black ops' fund, long hidden by Major E.L. Richards Jr., the plan moved forward quickly within a small community of intelligence officers and their backers.
Brigadier General Harry C. Aderholt would pull a team together in September and October of 1979 that would have made any commanding officer proud, and perhaps shot fear into any enemy who had an idea of what was being put together. Colonel Roger H.C. Donlon, stationed at Fort Leavenworth at the time, would head one combat team, drawing heavily from the newly formed DELTA FORCE, Navy SEALS, and USAF Special Operations Command (AFSOC). Flight teams were organized by astronaut scientist Karl Gordon Henize, and included the best of the best in combat and test pilots, with special operations training - or who could be counted on to keep their silence, including Captain Mark Richards, who was recovering from his command roll of Dragon Squadron in the battle that had taken place in August.
While exact numbers of the human force involved is still so protected that there seems to be no firm record of the exact count, there were never more than a few hundred who knew anything about the operation. The center of the operation was clearly found in USAF Space Command, and the Director of I.S., Major Ellis L. Richards Jr.
The President (of the U.S.), the Secretary General of the United Nations, and the Chairman of the JCS were never informed of the pending operation, and it should be noted that the humans and aliens involved in the attack took part in the action without orders or clearances from higher authorities.
Those who fought against the aliens did so against the will of the human elite, many of whom may even be reptilian shape-shifters in human form, according to some sources, like David dIcke and others. - Branton
The Dulce landing ports were set up to accept the 'light craft' and other Mass Accelerator Beam (MAB) Riders used by the Greys to transport from planet to orbital pick-up points. These craft generated magneto-hydrodynamic thrust, driven by microwaves and pulsed lasers, to accelerate the classic 'flying saucers' up to altitudes of 50 kilometers and accelerations that easily allowed orbital velocities. This made the human-style of heavy-lift chemical rockets an expensive folly, and allowed the aliens Earth-to-Orbit travel at will for a relatively low cost.
It also gave the human forces a way into the facility.
Because an infrastructure of orbiting stations were used to reflect energy from a solar-power station hidden on the Dark Side of the Moon, there were a number of ways to track such a ship. The light-craft focused the microwave energy to create an air spike that deflected oncoming air - that could be tracked. And electrodes on the vehicle's rim that ionized air and formed part of the thrust-generating system could be seen by real-time cameras (and even the human eye at close ranges). Thus, it was planned that one of the attack teams would enter the facility when the main port's doors were open for an incoming light-craft.
This was not going to be an easy stunt. Sensors around the area set off an alarm if anything got too close to the doors, not to mention warn the operators of any air or space vehicle that got too close. The mouth was too small for anything larger than a good sized helicopter, but helicopters would be too slow to reach the doors before the base defensive systems went off. Because of the special problems of entry into the Dulce Facility, normal helicopter attack would not work. As well trained as they were, to attempt a landing into the hanger area of the facility would have been suicidal. And once inside the port area, any attack force would be likely overwhelmed by the base defenders - unless, whatever craft was used could carry a number of heavy automatic weapons, and land a large number of attackers at one time.
The Greys were quite content that no such craft existed in the human military inventory. And not even the Reptoids had a craft that could be used under all of the required conditions, that wouldn't be spotted long before it could reach the port.
What they hadn't counted on was one, single, experimental aircraft, that was still so secret that it had never been entered on any inventory list. Manufactured by the Bell Corporation, the X-22 was a 'research' craft, with some interesting abilities. The first successful V/STOL VSS (Variable Stability System) aircraft, this strange mix of wings, jets, and huge ducted props might not have been pretty, but it was perfect for the mission needs of the Dulce Attack Force.
Because of the lack of time, the only man involved who also had the skill to fly the X-22 under such combat conditions was Captain Mark Richards. Thus he was chosen to lead Combat Assault Team (CAT) Three, that would be responsible for attacking the main landing port - and hold it long enough for other teams to land in conventional helicopters and for the evacuation of CAT's and victims when the attack was concluded. According to records, Captain Richards had no more than 12 hours flying the X-22 before he took it into combat.
While the attack teams were being organized and trained, the attack itself was being planned by the men responsible for the situation. Objectives and alternative were picked, including a nuclear option in case the manned attack failed. Astronaut David Griggs was chosen to go with CAT-3 to make an attempt to 'loot' one of the alien space ships, while astronaut Ronald Ervin McNair went in as Richards' co-pilot and 'laser weapons expert' (the fact that he was a black belt in Karate also came in highly helpful before the event was over). Astronaut Lieutenant Colonel Ellison S. Onizuka (USAF) and Colonel Stuart Allen Roosa (USAF) also went in as members of CAT-3 to gather information, and hopefully escape with alien ships or equipment, with Colonel Roosa commanding the Material Acquisition Team (MAT). None of their efforts could be of value, of course, unless the attack plan worked.
To make sure of success, the full information gathering ability of several top-secret departments within the NSA was turned loose on Dulce. Facts were gathered from sources far and wide, including everything from sightings listed in newspapers to interviews with people who helped to build the facility.
John V. Chambers, a Kentfield, CA resident spent his working life in management and finance of large engineering construction projects. It would be Chambers, who had been involved with the Bechtel work at Dulce and other top secret government projects, who would be contacted by the forces that intended to attack Dulce, and became convinced to aid them in their effort.
It would be Mr. Chambers who would mention a number of weak points in the Dulce systems that would allow an attack to have a much better chance of success. It was Chambers who pointed out major weak points for the aliens. .It seemed that the aliens had reason to worry about a number of the germs found outside the facility, and that some of the alien species were highly vulnerable to a number of human-passed diseases.
The germs and bacteria that are everywhere on the planet, that humans and other mammals have (for the most part) developed ways to cope with, can offer great threat to aliens and their life forms. Earth dust, or bacteria blowing on the winds, can be deadly to a life form that has no resistance to such things. What humans refer to as 'hay fever' can be just as deadly to a creature that is having a difficult time 'breathing' in the Earth's oxygen rich atmosphere. It was quickly realized that if the filters used to make Earth's 'air' more acceptable for the aliens could be disabled, many of the enemy would soon be sick and unable to continue to fight, and a large number might simply die on the spot!
As the intelligence gathering expanded, a number of shocking facts were uncovered. In 1947, the Dutchman had been involved with Admiral Byrd in the attack of the last Nazi base at the South Pole. Now he and others would come to better understand the connections that elite humans had developed with aliens, from the days of the Nazi efforts to modern times. This included helping the aliens to build secret bases all over the Earth (including the base at the South Pole, and the facility at Dulce), aiding in the abduction of young women for alien research and pleasure needs, and the addition of more pollution to the planets atmosphere to bring on global warming and make the Earth more friendly to alien life forms.
One of the most shocking finds was the extent of the alien underground base-and-transportation network. While tube-trains had been expected, the vast bases that had been created came as a shock to even the best informed officers.
The reason such bases became more important now was that the human forces had to quickly find out where every base was that might react to an attack on Dulce, and how long it would take before they might send rescue forces. Another question was, how would they react in general? Might they attack humanity in some more deadly fashion than simply abducting a few thousand females a year? In the end it became clear that because of divisions in alien intentions, there was little organization between groups. Like a number of competing collages at a ruin, for the most part they were only interested in their own little outpost and research.
In a report filed in early 1980, believed by a number of CIA sources to have been written by Brigadier General Aderholt, the author states:
"What those young men did was nothing less than the stuff of legend. Against overwhelming numbers and technology, they fought from Level 1 (containing the garages and hangers) down into the bowels of the enemy base. Portions of the combat took, and held, the Level 2 ports where tunnel shuttles and disc maintenance areas would have allowed enemy reinforcements to enter, while the main force charged forward towards Level 6, and 'Nightmare Hall', to rescue the thousands of human victims kept there."
They were not ready for what they found in Level 6. Reports spoke of multi-armed and multi-legged humans and cages (and vats) of humanoid bat-like creatures as tall as 7-feet. The aliens had learned a great deal about genetics, things both useful and frightening. And most of it had been learned at the cost of human suffering and lives.
Captain Leathers' flight reached Level 7 first, blowing the main HUB entrance open and neutralizing the security force there with extreme prejudice in less than 45
seconds. On entering the security station, they realized the extent of the facility for the first time, finding systems for watching and controlling over 30,000 captives on that one level (alone), and the control and security systems for moving the captives to 'testing facilities' and 'pleasure centers' in over 62 different locations - where another 4,600 captives were currently kept.
Captain Leathers' report to I.S. would mention the moment:
"I looked out over holographic images of scenes of horror that are impossible to express in words, and a zoo of human being in various states of health and mental condition. Seeing images of young women being tortured at that very moment, all I could think of were my own daughters for several moments. Then I collected my wits, and gave the order to move forward to release as many of the victims as we could."
While the original mission plan had called for the teams to attack, smash as much of the enemy facility as they could, and withdraw in less than half an hour, the introduction of so many human victims added a new dimension to the problems at hand. While none of the officers in charge will admit to who made the order, recorded radio communications, and eyewitness reports, seem to suggest that Aderholt allowed the young Richards to change the mission demands as the numbers of 'savable' victims became more apparent.
Captain Leathers - I.S. report reads:
"It wasn't like we had choices. We couldn't leave those poor girls behind alive. We knew that any that we didn't evacuate, we were going to have to terminate. Our
problem was simply numbers. Thousands of aliens trying to kill us. Thousands of human females screaming for help. Thousands more so far gone that we knew we would have to leave them behind. Thousands of enemy troops starting to arrive on the subway trains. We just weren't set up for a mass evacuation. The sub-tube back to New York, and one to Mexico, seemed to still be open, so we started loading girls into tube trains and shooting them off as soon as we knew our forces were in control of the stations at the other ends. We blew two air shafts wide open, so a couple squads could get girls out that way into the fresh air where hopefully our people could pick them up. CAT-4 took a real beating as they fought to keep alien reinforcements from entering the main sub tube stations. There is no doubt in my mind that we stayed in the facility too long, but at the time it was very hard to leave those poor young women behind. You knew that everyone you failed to send out in front of you was going to die, and soon."
Exactly one hour after the X-22 had first attacked the main port entry, Aderholt ordered a full recall. David Griggs and R.E. McNair had by then managed to get two alien craft airborne - one disk-craft and one of the highly advanced triangle fighter-craft - and were running for Area 51. Roosa's men also had managed to get a huge disk-shuttle moving, in which over 3,600 human females had been loaded and were now being taken to a safe base.
The human female survivors were taken to several top secret military bases where they were 'deprogrammed' and 'rehabilitated' so that they could be slowly farmed back into society with no memory of what they had suffered.
As the mysterious 'Commander X' stated:
"From my own intelligence work within the military, I can say WITH ALL CERTAINTY that one of the main reasons the public has been kept in total darkness about the reality of UFOs and 'aliens' is that the truth of the matter actually exists TOO CLOSE TO HOME TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT. How could a spokesman for the Pentagon dare admit that five or ten thousand feet underground EXISTS AN ENTIRE WORLD THAT IS FOREIGN TO A BELIEF STRUCTURE WE HAVE HAD FOR CENTURIES? How could, for example, our fastest bomber be any challenge to those aerial invaders when we can only guess about the routes they take to the surface; eluding radar as they fly so low headed back to their underground lair? The 'Greys' or the 'EBEs' have established a fortress, spreading out to other parts of the U.S. via means of a vast underground tunnel system THAT HAS VIRTUALLY EXISTED BEFORE RECORDED HISTORY".
All of the men involved in any of the attack teams were either 'mind-wiped' or sworn to secrecy on pain of death or terminated by higher-level insiders following the battle, self-serving politicians and 'elite' who had nothing to do with initiating the attack, but who had everything to do with suppressing any information concerning it after the fact. Branton
Because the officers in charge were seen as heroes by many of the political right-wing that took control in Washington in 1981, most were protected by the changing political elite. Many of those who had either openly backed the alien cause, or had profited from it in one way or another, were forced to pull back from their position for nearly ten years. Only when George Bush Sr. became President were the aliens able to return, and then only in much smaller numbers.
The Battle of Dulce ended the alien hope for using the Earth as a breeding tank for a subspecies, or for their take-over of the planet at any time in the near future. While the Grey's restarted a breeding program in 1993 and some of the lower levels of the Dulce Facility were reopened by 1998, the numbers are in the tens or hundreds rather than the thousands. And USAF Space Command now tracks all alien craft with the constant threat that Top Secret Flights can react and attack an other world enemy at any moment with dramatic results.
Over 50 years of intense UFO interest, investigation, researching, evaluation, and theorizing by countless UFO aficionados have enabled modern field investigators to better examine, evaluate, and identify many of the unusual airborne objects that are being reported. Yet a small percentage of the reports continue to elude positive identification. Rumors of what took place at Dulce in 1979 have already been reduced to legend at the end of the 20th century. Indeed, the continued 'conmen' involved with such reports have helped the USAF cover the truth of events that took place at Dulce, and continue to aid in the effort to hide the ruined facility and those who took part in events there.
Men like Intelligence Officer William Cooper, who have become too loose with their knowledge of the truth, can be discredited in any number of ways, or terminated if they become too great a threat. It should be clear from their actions, and their willingness to challenge authority, that these men must never be allowed into such a position of power or authority again (or rather, such is the mindset of the human - or shape shifting!? - elite).
While the "Dutchman" was terminated in 1996, and his son will be in prison for the rest of his life, the mindset itself that created such men must be crushed if the human race is to know peace with the aliens (but then again, the elite & gray-alien version of 'peace' is more akin to 'assimilation'. - Branton.
The illusion of freedom that may be lost by those few who know what is really going on will be a worthy exchange for amazing technology that will come into the hands of the human elite (so they reason) that takes part in the new transfer. This may not take place easily, of course, until all human resistance has been removed either through retraining or through conquest. (This is the distorted reasoning of the 'elite' who would sell out our planet for their own selfish personal physical gain). - Branton.
One of the key lessons to be learned from the Dulce Battle is as long as there are small, highly trained and well equipped human forces, that can, may, or will go into action on their own accord to protect the people of the Earth, easy conquest of the planet becomes difficult. A departmentalized military, with some branches so 'top secret' that even the political elite who rule the country aren't too sure of what is out there, is a threat to any enemy. At this time, there are arms of the USAF Space Command so Top Secret that no one in the Pentagon knows that they exist in anything but legend.
If humanity is to survive long enough for it to take a historic place in the civilized social structures of the universe, they must either defend themselves from any life-form that would harm them or their planet, or surrender themselves to some sort of interplanetary police force that will protect them. At this time, only rumors of such a police force have reached those in the know, leaving self-defense as the only real option. The men who attacked the Dulce Facility in 1979 understood that reality, and took the task of defending humanity into their own hands. One can only make subjective guesses at what might have happened if they had not done what they did.

We get the powers over us that we've earned collectively. Humanity, as a whole, is self-interested, shallow, ignorant, violent and immoral; small wonder, therefore, that our leaders (secret or otherwise) reflect that. You want better leaders, become better people.

I have been reading and studying this subject for a little while now, on the internet. I cannot totally agree with those who say that this is disinformation, unless they mean, in the true sense of "disinformation", that this is lies mixed in with a grain of truth. I feel, from the tone of these comments, however, that they mean "total lies". I am attempting to read and study as many different biographies of those stated to be involved as possible. However, there is a lot of material on the net about this, some of it more reliable than others.
I intend to look at the official biographies (military, N. A. S. A., etc.), as well as the unofficial ones. If this a hoax, then somebody would have to make sure that they have written about people who actually exist(ed), or else the thing would be complete fiction. On this point, I agree with the debunkers!
However, once one starts to use the identities of real people, one has to be very careful that all the facts of their lives are correct, or one is very quickly caught out as lying, or having made it up. As I have stated already, there is a lot of material to work through, and if anybody else wants to lend a hand and do some independent searching and re-searching (literally!), I would be only too grateful.
The main problem would appear to be that whether this is true or not, and especially if it is true, that any information from official sources would be very guarded, if available at all. It is here that one needs to read between the lines, without reading extras into what is written, a fine line to tread indeed.
Assuming that the sources do not absolutely rule out the possibility that an individual could have taken part in the incident, then I would keep an open mind as to whether or not they could have participated. With that sort of mind-set, it would be necessary to examine, not what is written in a person's biography, but also what is not said, i.e., any unexplained gaps in their story. Whilst the people at the top would make sure that their cover stories were watertight, it may be that any chinks in the armour would be found in the life histories of those at a lower level.
Another problem is that a large number of the quoted participants are already dead. Unless they left any death-bed confessions or papers for their families, their stories would have died with them.
1 possible area of (re)search that I have not looked at yet is Captain M(ark) Richards. His pedigree stretches back to his grandfather, who, it is claimed was involved with Tesla on unorthodox science, and whose father was also connected with operations that would not normally be part of any official history.
I mention him, because that might be a fruitful area for somebody to start looking, due to Captain Richards current situation. He is at present in prison for murder, and has been there for over 20 years, and in excess of the sentence that he was given by the court. The background to this jail sentence is that it is claimed that he was framed for the murder, because of his story above.
This reminds me of a similar situation, in the case of a green beret, whose name and details escape me at the time of writing, but who is well documented on the internet. He was framed for the murder of a Vietnamese double-agent, because he wanted to expose the goings-on mentioned in The Pentagon Papers, but which at that time (the 1980's, I believe), had not been published.
Nobody has come forward and stated, "no, this story (Captain Richards')is wrong, because...
The only disproof seems to be along the lines of "You do not expect me to believe that, do you?" If I am about to embark on what will be a long stretch of research, anybody who has proof positive of this being a hoax is more than welcome to say so here, as that will save me a lot of time that I can then spend on something more worthwhile.
Until then, I propose looking into things in a little more depth than I have done previously. Sorry that this is such a long post, with nothing concrete to say, but, if the truth is really out there,it certainly seems to be worth looking for.
Hopefully, I shall, eventually, have something to report, even if it is that I can find no possibility of this incident having happened.
However, on a brief overview of those involved, these people seem to have been well suited to the tasks allotted to them, and unless they were occupied with other provable activities at the time that this incident took place, it seems reasonable to infer they they could have taken part. We shall see!

Posted by Mike Gilpin on October 29, 2010
By Mike Gilpin
I was in the audience at our recent "Business Process & Application Delivery Forum" for the track session "Using The Next-Generation PMO To Promote Innovation," which was delivered by Margo Visitacion. The premise of the session was that leading-edge PMOs (project management offices) are evolving to a more strategic role, focused on portfolio management of business investment rather than just IT projects or programs.
I know this phenomenon is real because I, too, have talked with multiple Forrester clients, PMO leaders, who have elevated the mission of their PMO to this level -- often to the extent that they no longer report into the CIO but are outside IT, reporting into a business exec like the COO or CEO. In so doing, they have refocused their efforts on everything from guiding business leaders through building a business case for the investments they want to make, to guiding decision-makers through selection from the portfolio of investment proposals, to tracking benefits realization and ROI after the fact. PMOs with this kind of business-focused, strategic mission have greater business impact and are often close partners with executives leading their firm.
During the session, one of the attendees asked an interesting question: "At our firm, the functions you describe are led by the enterprise architecture team as part of the strategic planning and business architecture process. Which is better suited to doing this function, EA or the PMO?"

Hopscotch Adoptions, Inc Honored As 2012 Top-Rated Nonprofit
High Point, North Carolina December 4, 2012 – Hopscotch Adoptions, Inc. announced today that it has been honored with a prestigious 2012 Top-Rated Award by GreatNonprofits, the leading provider of user reviews about nonprofit organizations.
The Top-Rated Nonprofit award was based on the large number of positive reviews that Hopscotch Adoptions received – reviews written by volunteers, donors and clients. People posted their personal experience with the nonprofit. For example, one person wrote, "I adopted two beautiful children internationally, both through Hopscotch Adoptions, and we are a grateful Hopscotch Family! Their teams, both here in the US and in-country, are wonderful to work with and, both times, really made the process very special."
Being on the Top-Rated List comes at an important time of the year, as donors look for causes to support during the holiday season.
"We are gratified by Hopscotch Adoptions, Inc for its work," said Perla Ni, CEO of GreatNonprofits, "They deserve to be discovered by more donors and volunteers who are looking for a great nonprofit to support."
Being on the Top-Rated list gives donors and volunteers more confidence that this is a credible organization. The reviews by volunteers, clients and other donors show the on-the-ground results of this nonprofit. This award is a form of recognition by the community.
About Hopscotch Adoptions, Inc
Hopscotch Adoptions, Inc. ("Hopscotch")
The fundamental belief of Hopscotch is that each child has the right to a lifelong, loving family. We recognize and support efforts that can allow children to safely remain in their original families and, where this is not possible, to be adopted in their countries of birth. When these options are not available, however, we believe that children should be placed internationally with adoptive parents who can provide a nurturing and stable permanent family. Sometimes, sadly, children do not meet the legal standards for international adoption and are subject to institutional life. In these cases, Hopscotch supports their needs through directed humanitarian assistance that improves their quality of life. It is these children and these adoptive parents that Hopscotch serves.

Batman Classic: Meet the Super Heroes: With Superman and Wonder Woman (2010)
by Michael Teitelbaum
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This book is perfect for children who love superheroes but aren't quite ready to read the graphic novels or comics. I enjoyed the combination of Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman. Together they fight against an evil dragon and save Gotham City. Great message of teamwork. The large text and style of writing makes this book a great early reader. At the elementary school I work at, these readers are always fought over.

Laminate Alignment / Baseboard mistake
4 Attachment(s)
I've installed laminate flooring in my house, but made a big mistake...
I left a big hole/gap between the floor and current baseboards, thinking the quarter round would cover everything up, but it doesn't seem to be the case...
Anyways, I'm posting some pictures, and would like suggestions on what to do...
What comes to mind now is:
1- Put quarter round baseboard around door casings and leave a gap between the baseboard and wall
2- Come up with some type of dark putty (that matches the color of the floor), so it's not too noticeable.
Please help!
You also have the transition strip the wrong place. It was suppost to be in the middle of the doorway.
All door jambs were suppost to be under cut and the flooring run under the jambs not beside them.
What do you think would be the best solution in your opinion? Cut the baseboards straight 45 degree angles and leave the gap between the door casing and baseboard (shown in pic 2) ?
In the last picture it sure looks like you left no gap between the flooring and the baseboard which will cause the floor to "tent". (buckle up)
FYI, The wide trim that was left on the wall is baseboard, 1/4 round is just that, it's not 1/4 round baseboard.
There just is no great way to cover that up without redoing it. So you do what looks ok to you.
simple fix.
just cut a piece of that flooring to fill the gap, glue it in place, carefully. if you can take up that last piece, it will be much easier to fit in the repair. . then properly cut the 1/4 round. if done well, it will almost look like you didn't make mistake.
2 Attachment(s)
The 1 & 2 picture are showing the right side of the hall (last piece), pic 3 & 4 shows the left... (first piece, was able to place it under the current baseboard)
I'll take a few more pictures just to give a better idea.
Edit: pics added...
1st picture: hallway explaining what happened
2nd: hallway, taken from opposite side..
idk what glue i would use. but do be carefull about what glue you do try = gorilla glue (the one i use anyways) expands like spay foam, just slower. this will ruin your "fix". i would first try wood glue, and experiment on scraps. and don't glue the fix to the floor, glue it to the flooring.
the base board on the right. take it off. the cut a "fix" that fits just right, and glue that little piece to that last piece, let dry and reinstall. then replace the baseboard.
btw, that is some nice looking flooring. what is it ? did you test is for durability ?
Tite Bond II or even Elmers white glue will work.
Just make sure to wipe any extra off with a damp rag asap.
one thing i should have said. making these "fixs" work isn't going to be "easy". you going to be trimming a few .001's of an inch at a time while making them fit. and your probably going to be making mistakes. just take it easy and don't be in a hurry. i am sure you will end up with satisfactory results.
joe, your probably right, tite bond is probably the glue to use. i used it to glue my subwoofer boxs together, no issues at all. though, iirc, the stuff takes a while to dry.
When installing vinyl plank flooring, I had a spot (closet door post) that had an edge gap. I used a caulk that was a good color match to the flooring, and it isn't noticeable.
I like to remove the base trim when installing flooring (I cut back the walls if they aren't gapped at the bottom, too). That way, I have a nice expansion gap, sometimes without having to resort to adding shoe molding.

" Brand: Jean Paul Gaultier / Type: Fragrance / Concentration: Eau de Toilette / Gender: for men "
* Prices may differ from that shown
I saw this aftershave was released a while ago and decided to purchase some after trying it out and falling in love with the smell. In a strange way, it has a similar scent to the original Jean Paul Gaultier fragrance but it is slightly less rich and has a lighter and somewhat floral smell although it's 100% masculine. The aftershave comes in a tin just like the original, however it is white. It has the Fleur Du Male logo in the middle with the Jean Paul Gaultier logo at the top in an urban-style text. Beneath it says 'Eau De Toilette', which is the one you want to be getting rather than one simply labelled 'aftershave' online, which isn't as long lasting on the skin.
I managed to find an eau de toilette for around £35, which was 125ml in volume. This is a very large bottle for the price so I was pleased with this. Inside, the bottle is held within a mould so it's very stable and safe if being transported. You can open the tin and then pull out this mould to reveal the bottle. It slips out of the mould to be use, and it comes with a safety cap already on. This is good as it prevents the spray button being pressed when it's not in use, so it could be handy around kids for example. The very white design with a little 'Fleur Du Male' tag hanging from the spray button makes it look very modern and simplistic.
The bottle has the same design as the original but it is white and opaque. You can't really see the level of the aftershave left although there is a slight shadow if you look carefully. The bottle is shaped like a male torso and has a white spray button on the top. The spray function does work well although you'll have to make sure you are holding the bottle roughly in an upright position so it sprays well.
The scent is wonderful with bergamot and orange blossom. Although containing more floral scents, it still has a very masculine smell although I'm sure it may appeal to the ladies more, which is a benefit if you are wearing it! It is still quite strong in the way it's long-lasting on the skin but I wouldn't say it is immediately as rich as the original. A couple to a few sprays on the neck will easily see you through a day or night. I'd certainly recommend trying this aftershave, as although similar to the original it's very unique and quite attractive. I bought mine from Amazon.co.uk, which turned out to be pretty cheap. The bottle is quite large too so will last a long time.
Thanks for reading
Jean Paul Gaultier's Fleur du Mâle
The Packaging:
Fleur du Mâle is presented in a cylindrical tin, sheer white and simplistic. This tin seems to be a continuing theme with the JPG fragrances and although not so easy to get into without a foreceful pop, they are a unique and eye catching design amongst regular perfume boxes.
The Bottle:
Also continuing from the previous JPG line such as Le Male, the bottle is in the shape of a male torso. This bottle is sheer white and translucent (you can just about see the perfume if held up to a bright light). The spritzer is just above the neck and restricted from accidental pressing by a white, circular "Fleur du Mâle" tag holding the push button up. Each spray releases a generous amount of the fragrance. It is a pleasant shape to hold and also an eyecatching design. I'd say that this design is more aimed at a younger audience, similarly to the tin.
The Price:
You can expect to pay around
£35.00 for a 75 ml bottle
£47.00 for a 125ml bottle
(prices from Boots.com)
I'm sure there are numerous websites where you can find this perfume cheaper
The Scent:
The creators of Fleur du Mâle stated before the perfume was released that it contained Orange Blossom. This floral note has been used previously in men's fragrances as well as women's however this Orange Blossom is the key note that makes up the main body of the fragrance through from start to finish.
The initial spray to me is a sweet, overpowering burst of Orange Blossom with a hint of what seems like honey. Other florals linger in the background like a bouquet of white flowers. This extreme sweetness soon settles down to a more natural smelling blossom. It reminds me a sweet, male version of Cacharel's Anais Anais as the pure floral scent makes up the main body. Also however, it reminds me of furniture polish and having wore it I have heard it being referred to as smelling of this also. But this is not a bad thing, although the Orange Blossom is very prominant, Fleur du Mâle does not project too much as to be overpowering. It lingers as you move but only subtely. Fleur du Mâle remains pretty linear from here onwards, the Orange Blossom and honey scent is layered over mild woods keeping the scent from being too feminine (even though I would consider this a unisex fragrance). The lasting power is pretty good and I can still smell traces on my skin after numerous hours and on clothes for a couple of days.
Useful tip: A dab of Patchouli oil, such as the Body Shop's own brand, onto a spray of Fleur du Mâle works well in giving the fragrance a more mossy/masculine smell.
This fragrance I'd say is aimed more at the confident, possibly younger generation males who are open minded to their masculinity as such to wear a fragrance this floral. However it is nice to see a male fragrance which isn't just a "fresh citrus woodsy" scent and perfumers being more adventurous.
The original fragrance, Le Male, was launched in 1994. Jean-Paul Gaultier second fragrance in the range, Fleur du Male, has retained the fougere note from the original scent, but is developed around an olfactory story based on the orange blossom, formulated by Takasago's Francis Kurkdjian. It comes in a white signature bust-shaped bottle housed in a white tin.

As love triangles go it could not have a more A-list cast — the supermodel, the Oscar-nominated actress and the billionaire who owns Gucci.
Today in a Manhattan courtroom Linda Evangelista will give evidence in what could be one of the most expensive childcare cases in US history.
The model claims that French fashion tycoon François-Henri Pinault, who is now married to Salma Hayek, told her to abort their son Austin when she said she was pregnant.
Evangelista, 46, is seeking £28,500 a month in alimony from the magnate, whose PPR company owns brands including Yves Saint Laurent and Balenciaga.
She says she needs £4,300 a month for nannies and £10,000 a month for armed drivers.
Mr Pinault yesterday admitted breaking up with the Canadian after discovering she had become pregnant during a four-month romance which ended in January 2006.
"I didn't even know her," he said. Although he "was not involved in the decision" to have the baby, he told the model he would "recognise" the child. "She was so happy to be pregnant. But it was not planned. I decided to stop the relationship at that point," he added. Asked why he had paid nothing towards the boy's keep, he said: "She didn't ask and I didn't offer."
Mr Pinault was already dating Hayek, with whom he now has a four-year-old daughter Valentina, when he learned Evangelista was expecting, her lawyer William Beslow told the court.
"After some initial happiness, he told her he wished she would terminate the pregnancy. She said she would support herself since he made it clear he had no wish to. She's not looking to piggy-back her lifestyle on Mr Pinault. She is looking to continue the lifestyle that Augie [Austin] had," said Mr Beslow.
The lawyer said it was only when the model's contract with L'O réal ended in 2010 that "it became important for her to go to the bullpen and ask for a contribution".
Evangelista is reportedly worth £5 million. She once said about herself and her fellow supermodels: "We don't wake up for less than $10,000-a-day."
Mr Pinault, 49, is heir to a £7 billion family fortune. His lawyer, David Aronson, said: "Most of the expenses do not relate to Augie but to Ms Evangelista. These people have more money than a lot of people. But our position is that what is being asked for is just ridiculous."
Evangelista also wants Pinault to give their son a home similar to the £8 million California estate he put in trust for his daughter.

Rep. Raul Labrador (R-Idaho) has fired his longtime spokesman over a tweet the spokesman accidentally sent from the congressman's Twitter account praising a Super Bowl commercial featuring the stars of the CBS show "Broke Girls" provocatively pole dancing, according to the Idaho Statesman.
Spokesman Phil Hardy deleted the tweet, which read "Me likey Broke Girls" after 14 seconds, but Labrador's district director told the Idaho newspaper that Labrador fired Hardy late Monday over the incident. Labrador's office had apologized Monday for the slightly off-color tweet. Hardy, who had formerly worked in the music industry, had served as Labrador's director of communications since his 2010 campaign.
Labrador is taking on an increasingly public profile, as he seeks to coax fellow conservatives to consider an overhaul of the nation's immigration system. The congressman is a Fox News and tea party favorite, and Hardy had handled Labrador's voluminous press requests from his Meridian, Idaho, headquarters and not from Washington.
In an e-mail sent Monday shortly after news of the tweet hit the Internet, Hardy acknowledged that he was responsible but said the mistake was not intentional. "Totally an accident," he said. He did not immediately respond to a phone message Thursday. A spokeswoman for Labrador also did not immediately respond.
Hardy is hardly the first Capitol Hill staffer to lose his job over an errant tweet. An intern for former Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) was fired after accidentally retweeting a message from a member of the gender-bending band Scissor Sisters. Staffers for Rep. Rick Larsen (D-Wash.) lost their jobs after disparaging their boss and bragging about their drinking habits on Twitter.
A previous version of this story incorrectly stated the reason for Richard Grenell's resignation from the Mitt Romney campaign.

Examples of nepotism in a Sentence
Nepotism has hurt the company.
Did You Know?
During his papacy from 1471-1484, Sixtus IV granted many special favors to members of his family, in particular his nephews. This practice of papal favoritism was carried on by his successors, and in 1667 it was the subject of Gregorio Leti's book Il Nepotismo di Roma-titled in the English translation, The History of the Popes' Nephews. Shortly after the book's appearance, nepotism began to be used in English for the showing of special favor or unfair preference to any relative by someone in any position of power, be it ecclesiastical or not. (The "nep-" spelling is from nepote, a 17th-century variant of Italian nipote, meaning "nephew.")
