Hello everyone! I am a PE teacher in Austin, TX. I became involved with intel, Teachers Engage after a friend, Cindy Austria, told me about everything she was learning in this group. I wanted to get involved, so I could learn new ways to bring technology into my gym. So far my students, Kinder - 5th grade, have enjoyed using power points, and apps on the ipad.
Hello, Aimee and thanks for introducing yourself! Have you found some interesting areas in Engage yet? Since you mentioned apps, you might like to take a look at this discussion... Many teachers share apps here in the community in various discussions, but that seems to be one place which is full of them.
Here is one app a fellow Gym teacher used...and a couple of other ones here.
What would you like to find here? I may be able to show you just what you need!
My name is Debra Knox! I am the Media Coordinator at Lincoln Elementary School. I am so excited about joining this group/community. I would like to engage in learning more about how others collaborate and share information about the Common Core with their teachers. I was introduce to your site by another colleague. I am also interested in learning new technology applications to help the teacher at my school share information easily. Thank you!
Hello and Welcome! I hope you will find some great ideas here in Engage regarding Common Core. I suggest that you put Common core into the little search window at the upper right and check out some of the things here in the community.
...and don't forget you can click on my name wherever you find it in the community and send me a private message to ask for help in locating particular items.
Close to 26,000 members... 14,000+ groups-- amazing! The education world is (Intel) engaged!
I created 3 groups and been invited to several of those created by teachers I introduced to Engage. Brings a smile when one thinks of how far teachers may have taken the idea of online community.
The statistics in the first paragraph is a heartwarming reminder about how well we have been supported by Teachers Engage. Thank you, Intel!
I'm glad to hear that you have created groups of your own...do you use the "mock training group" to start your group areas? Anyone who wants to learn how to create a group, there are several wonderful resources in the community...From the "FAQs and Tips" area within About Engage, there are several resources to begin with. Want more? put "group" in the search bar...or ask me directly by requesting friensdhip or clicking "send private message" after you click on my name...
Hi, Bonnie and everybody! I am an elementary music teacher in Austin, TX. I have discovered many cool music apps for iPads, just wish I had enough iPads for my classes. I've also found some that help struggling readers. There are so many Web 2.0 tools that I haven't yet used, but I wouldn't have used any had it not been for the Engage community, so I'm grateful for all that I am learning. This is an amazing community.
I'm so glad to hear you are enjoying the community! I agree that the tools and tips shared by other community members here is amazing! Do you have a favorite discussion or area?
I am a 3rd grade teacher at Haven, Kansas. This will be my 25th year teaching. I am currently taking an Intel class, I have just finished my project unit and will present it to the class this afternoon. Everybody enjoy the 3 day weekend.
Good Morning All!
My name is Joni Allsup, and I am a 4th grade teacher in Kansas. I've been teaching for 29 years, mostly here in Kansas. I became involved in Intel this past week with a Thinking With Technology class. I am looking forward to trying out some of the ideas I have learned this week with my students in August. I chose to focus my projects on Math problem solving.
Hello, I am a 6th grade math teacher in Haven, Kansas. This is my 8th year of teaching. I have had a great week in the "Thinking with Technology" class learning so much and excited to apply it with my students this year. My instructor was awesome and made it very easy to get through the unit plan.
Hello from HOT, dry Kansas!
I am a 5th grade teacher learning to use the intel tools. I love adding the technology to my classroom. It engages my brain so I know it will also engage the students. I will enjoy the summer but I love to teach and can't wait to use what I have learned.
Hello! I am Kristi Roper, and I am new to this site. I am in my 13th year of teaching here in KS. I have been taking the Intel trainig this week and have learned some amazing new tools to use in my classroom. I am excited to use this site to find new ideas and materials to use in my teaching!
Hi Kristi,
I want to look at your photo album, yet!
Hello from Kansas. I am currently taking an intel class at Yoder. Yoder is an amish community so taking an technology class here is comical. We are on our last day of training. I have enjoyed this class.
Good morning! My name is Robbie Hays and I am a First Grade teacher at Haven,Kansas. I am currently taking an intel class in Yoder, Kansas. I am excited about the visual tool that I learned about this week. I have taught for 30 years and am excited to have something new to work with. This class has made me more comfortable working on a computer. Our instructor was patient and made us feel comfortable working on the computer. It's been a good week.
I have been teaching in the same school for 17 years. I teach 7th grade and I needed hours to recertify.
Intel Teach Program–Thinking and Technology is the course that I am taking and it is opening my eyes to the different ways we can challenge students to learn. One of the many positive things I see about this is that students won't realize that they are learning. This is when teaching gets fun. LEARNING without headaches.
Hi, I am a third grade teacher at Haven Grade School. I have been teaching for 25 years. We are just finishing our class on Thinking with Technology. I am excited to use the new tools from this class.
Hello from south-central Kansas, USA. We are a small, rural community in the "Heartland". Being a Career & Technical Education (CTE) secondary education teacher, I'm constantly trying to "update" my technical skills--FYI--I was raised with "manual" machines (if that gives you an indication of my age--women aren't suppose to tell people that they are 59 yrs old). We're suppose to keep our classroom technology updated which is challenging with the reduction of funds, which seems to be nation wide today. I'm currently taking the Intel Thinking with Technology Course to keep myself updated. This Kindle would be a tremendous asset in my business classroom.
Hi I am a Business teacher in Iowa! Would love to hear some of the classes you have taught. I think networking is one of the best ways to enhance our curriculum!

Hello! I've been excited to get a chance to set up a unit involving the study of the Santa Fe trail. I'm taking the Thinking with Technology class this week in Yoder, KS. I have been teaching for almost 30 years and still get excited about new ways to inspire deeper thinking in our student. I feel this interaction with the students will get them engaged in learning. Yea! a real method to bring the thrill back to discovery. I look forward to using this technology in my classroom.

My goodness! I have not checked this discussion for 4 days and there has been an explosion of activity! Welcome to Teresa, Joni, Audry, Valerie, Kristi, Renetta, Robbie, Wendell, Mary, Nancy, June, and Amna! I hope you all find the community a benefit to you!
Many of you are currently taking or recently took an Intel training. I know that has been engaging for you, and that it encourages new ways of thinking about planning learning activities for your students!
Keep an eye on this community- if you are the winner, we will contact you at the end of June!
Did you see that the community is about to undergo some changes? I have not yet seen the new look, but I will be here to help you if you get "lost" after the changes. Please consider "friending" me so it will be easier to send me a private message with any questions.
Thank you for joining!
I'm Michelle from Kingwood, WV! I teach Band/General Music and I am beginning my trek as a TIS (Technology Integration Specialist). The training will take 1 year and 320hrs of work.
I live on a small homestead and raise Oberhasli Dairy Goats, Welsummer Chickens and Muscovy Ducks!
I think this is going to be a great resource to share with my teachers, thanks Intel!! I'm also taking your class on 21st Century Assessments.
Welcome, Michelle!
You have joined the community right after our update. We are working to be sure we know where everything is, so let me know if you are seeking something in particular. It will give me a chance to find it!
I was a TIS for quite a few years, though that is not what I'm doing at this time. I loved the job and the learning I was able to do daily as well as helping teachers to learn the best ways to integrate technology effectively in their lessons. Please be sure to let me know if you need anything, and good luck on the Kindle!

I think you will really enjoy being part of the Intel community.
"Deafteach" you are a great example of a new member! I see your avatar all around the community! Others can use your example of an easily identifiable avatar or photo so others "get to know" you! Thank you for all of your contributions over the past year!

HI Everyone~
My name is Mary Frake and I am a junior math and language arts teacher in northeast Iowa as well. I have just completed day two of the Thinking With Technology class. I have enjoyed meeting the other teachers who are in my class and learning from them as well. I am excited about the materials that Intel has to offer. Each day I learn more and more which makes it interesting and exciting at the same time. I hope everyone is having a great summer!
Some of the best things about teaching- "June, July, and August!" Although in my neck of the woods, school is going well into June and starting early in August! However, in addition to R&R, most teachers spend their time working on the following school year! Still, it helps to vary the pace of life!

Hi folks ...
In Argentina, the Internet and educational technology is a little late ... also technological concepts in schools is very low ... so I am dedicated to teach and train people.
I am planning a reunion for a group of 20 people to present the new networks sosciales ...
but I have to do it right ...
I accept suggestions ...
I hope you find some other folks who know about the new networks sociales. If you tell me a bit more, perhaps I can steer you to some discussions here which would help.

Hello everyone! It's a beautiful day in the community! My name is Morrisa and I bring you all greetings from Greenville, NC where I am a proud kindergarten teacher! I taught 4th grade and a program called Reading Recovery before I took a walk on the wild side last year in kindergarten. I've been teaching for 7.5 years and in that time I've learned that talking to other educators along with my own experiences is so much more helpful than all those university courses...shhh...don't tell my professors... Thanks for the warm welcome Mrs. Bonnie!
You are so right about learning from other teachers! And we learn from our students how to teach as well. You may find the regularly scheduled webinars here in the community interesting . Take a look at the schedule and plan to attend some this summer. They are always interesting and fun! Plus, you may win a prize! You will find information about and links to register for at the above link.
If you have never attended an online webinar, this is an easy way to start. You will want to have speakers on your computer so you can hear the leader. You will ask your questions via the chat area within the webinar.

Court sides with Microsoft over Motorola patents used in Xbox
In a closely watched case, a federal judge has determined that Motorola is entitled to millions -- not billions -- of dollars in compensation for Microsoft's use of certain standard-essential patents.
U.S. District Judge James Robart ruled Thursday that Microsoft should pay Google's Motorola Mobility unit $1.8 million a year in royalties for use of wireless and video coding patents it used in the Xbox and its smartphones.
Motorola had demanded Microsoft pay royalties of $4 billion for use of patents that are part of the H.264 video and 802.11 wireless standards, which is … Read more

Action-fueled inspiration meets heart-thumping harmony. Skullcandy was founded with an action-sports ethos and an innovative spirit in 2003. Inception sparked when founder Rick Alden was listening to music on a Park City, Utah, chairlift. Alden wanted to combine the ability to rock favorite tunes and connect a cell phone seamlessly and simultaneously. Shortly thereafter, they released their first hands-free kit, allowing riders, skiers, and skaters the ability to talk and listen to music.
Since 2003, they have reinvented headphones with the innovative Skullcrusher subwoofer headphone and industry-leading in-line microphone technology. Additionally, they have paved the way through integrating amazing style and cutting-edge design into its entire collection of headphones and earbuds. Bold graphics and bright colors dominate the brands products when other competitors offer boring, uninspiring designs.
The functionality of Skullcandy headphones is better than ever, and sound quality is rich enough to please the pickiest of headphone junkies. Launched in 2012, Skullcandy Supreme Sound is the company's newest campaign, focused on offering insane sound quality. Through the combination of punchy and powerful bass, warm and smooth vocals, and precise highs, Supreme Sound results in perfect tonal balance. Furthermore, a limited lifetime warranty for those who aggressively listen while skating and snowboarding results in true headphone nirvana.
As if this weren't enough, they continue the tradition of pushing boundaries with the Navigator Headphone. Drawing from the same retro inspiration as the Aviator Headphone, the Navigator represents the evolution of an already perfect product. High-quality tuned 40mm drivers paired with an advanced acoustic chamber deliver Skullcandy Supreme Sound. Additionally, the Navigator Headphone is hooked up with Mic3, working harmoniously with iOS products. These headphones fold nicely and are sleeker and smaller than their older sibling, the Aviator. Grab a pair today for timeless style and supreme sound.

Meet our Students
Meet Travis WambachOceanside native Travis Wambach graduated from El Camino High School with honors in the fall of 2009. He had no immediate career plans and decided to attend MiraCosta College to figure out what he wanted to do in the future. "I came to MiraCosta College because it was affordable and the Oceanside Campus was close to my house – it worked out really well," says Travis. When Travis began his studies at MiraCosta College he did not know which subject he wanted major in. "I knew I wanted to do something in the field of science but didn't know which branch for quite some time," says Travis. After completing transfer level courses in physics, Travis decided his major. "I chose electrical engineering because of the physics class sequence I took at MiraCosta. It incorporates the study of circuits and electricity, is very logical and analytical, and I really like the math behind it," says Travis. With his major decided, the next step for Travis was to prepare for transfer. Travis got on the right path to the school of his dreams by visiting the Transfer Center. "I met with transfer counselor Lise Flocken, and she told me exactly what was needed to do to become a competitive candidate for admissions at big name universities," says Travis. Along with advice about which classes to take, Lise helped Travis join the Honors Scholar Program. "It is a really good environment to surround yourself in – I met great people, and while I was in the honors program I was able to go to the UCLA and UCSD transfer day. It gave me inspiration to continue working hard," says Travis. While Travis was studying full time at MiraCosta College, he also held a part time job on campus tutoring math, physics and chemistry at the Tutoring and Academic Support Center. "Balancing my schedule was difficult at times. I was on campus every day of the week, either in class or working. I also didn't have any transportation so had to rely on others to get to and from campus," says Travis. The hard work Travis put into his studies paid off, and in the fall semester of 2011 and spring semester of 2012 he was awarded the Emerson Network Power Scholarship, which recognizes students leadership and academic achievement. The scholarships ultimately lead to an internship at Emerson Power Network, giving Travis real life experience in a Fortune 200 company. "When I was working at Emerson my bosses gave me excellent career advice and mini-lectures," says Travis. In fall 2012, Travis will be transferring to UCSD. He applied and was accepted into other schools, such as UCLA, UC Berkeley and the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, but decided on UCSD because of the financial assistance the university offered. "I was awarded the Regents Scholarship at UCSD and the Emerson Network Power Scholarship through the MiraCosta College Foundation," says Travis. Along with the generous financial assistance, he will also be given the opportunity to complete research at UCSD during his first semester, an exciting prospect for Travis. "I have only had good experiences with the faculty and staff at MiraCosta College. Everyone is really good at their jobs." |

Rated 3 out of 5Â by 1
Rated 3 out of 5Â by BuCacton Eh, it's okay
I love Adidas sportswear from their sports bras and socks to tanks and pants but this one was a bit of a bummer. I got the reversible pants in purple and they ran a bit long (maybe 3-4 in. too long). I am 5'3" and the pants usually fit me very well. I don't think it's a bad purchase for lounging around in but maybe not so much for what I wanted it for #rock-climbing#. Also, in person, the color didn't seem as nice as online.

Laura Hand anchors CNY Central's Weekend Today in Central New York.
Two under arrest
Ithaca Police say two officers, injured in a scuffle at a concert on Saturday night, will be returning to work shortly, after recovering from injuries.
According to police reports, the two, a uniformed officer and a uniformed sargeant, were at Ithaca's State Street Theater about 8:45 Saturday night as a theater security officer was removing a concert goer for disorderly behavior.
The man, 23 year old David Wiles from Trumansburg, reportedly approached the police in a threatening manner, then got into a physical fight as they tried to arrest him, at one point taking an officer's Taser. His companion, 23 year old Juliet Halloran, from Ithaca, was also involved. She faces resisting arrest charges, he also faces assault and criminal possession of a weapon counts.
Ithaca Police say the security guard was also injured. The officers' injuries are not life threatening, but they will have medical time off before returning to duty.

My morning got cheery real quick when I checked my inbox and discovered this Charlie Brown Christmas cover from local band the Pauses, so I figured I'd give you the same opportunity to recall the true meaning of Christmas along with me. It got me thinking about all the holiday parties coming up, so I threw together a quick list of five holiday music nights to go be naughty or nice at: 1.

The post Christmas Time is [almost] here: Local bands, holiday parties and Christmas covers appeared first on Orlando Weekly Blogs.
Over the past few weeks, there has been some confusion among app loyalists who subscribe to BandsInTown, Songkick, [insert robot who auto-generates show notifications], etc. It seems both Songkick and BandsInTown falsely reported a cover set of Yeah Yeah Yeahs songs to be an actual Yeah Yeah Yeahs show in Orlando, which generated a fair amount of buzz considering the last time they played here was in 2006. (This is the risk you take when you trust a robot to put together your show calendar for you instead of checking Orlando Weekly's comprehensive calendar, I guess.) I just wanted to clarify that the Yeah Yeah Yeahs are NOT coming to town to play a FREE show, so if you saw this poster: And your eyes went straight to the bottom, and didn't see the text at the very top where it says COVER SET, don't say I didn't try to warn you before you get to Will's Pub on Dec. 16 and have a different "oh" moment than seeing Karen O perform here for the first time in seven years. In case the thought of a Yeah Yeah Yeahs cover set is enough to entice you out, there are also […]

1. Fire the coach, GM or QB is uttered during the first week of the season.
2. Suggesting the headcoach made a few bad decisions means you're a bad fan.
3. The only thing worse than your pro team…is your college team.
4. You can recite the back-up center's name but can't remember who is running for President.
5. Listening to sports radio makes you angrier than listening to campaign speeches.
6. Next week is always the week things are going to get better.
7. After 1 week you're trying to convince the ticket office that you cancelled your season tickets.
8. Your rookie QB looks more like a rookie than any of the other rookies.
9. You just blamed your grandma for the last INT.
10. The defense is good enough to win…if all the other phases of the game play well.
11. You haven't seen a real safety since the Blackwood Brothers.
12. You know who the Blackwood Brothers are.
Right now most Dolphins fans are somewhere between hope and depression. Most are hopeful that last weekends volleyball match between Ryan Tannehill and the defensive line was just an aberration and the coaching staff will "make some tweaks" to fix the problem. Let's just say I'm not encouraged when I hear Mike Sherman say that the tipped passes are all the fault of his rookie QB. Maybe Sherman should have remembered he was playing in the NFL with a rookie QB last week when he kept having him drop back with less than 2 minutes to go…only to turn it over…again and again and again. You see, Ryan Tannehill is young and will make mistakes; but, it is up to Sherman to know when to pull back the reigns back and when to turn him loose. Last week, any 10 year old with a playbook would've pulled back the reigns after INT number 1. After INT number 2, most sentient, cognizant humans would've taken a knee or simply hand the ball off to a RB. Not Sherman, he was determined to make that one of the worse two minutes of football Dolphin Fans have ever seen. It made me think of the 1999 playoffs…first two minutes. No Mike, it isn't all on the rookie. Your play calling and lack of awareness might have been the biggest shortcoming on the field that day.
That is if you discount the play of Chris Clemons. His total lack of awareness coupled with his non-physical style of football. I'm not sure if he was doing an oley move or if he was reaching for a flag in his back pocket when Adrian Foster ran through him to the endzone. I also saw the way he was so focused on avoiding contact on one play that the ball just dropped at his feet. I'm sure he was just trying to stay healthy for next week.
Finally, I guess it is hard to expect Tannehill to complete any passes when the offense is playing with 10 guys most of the game. That was because Mr. Legedu Naanee was completely invisible. How can a WR that big, be ….well….that small. You would think a guy 6-2, 215lbs with 4.4 speed … well you get the picture. His problem is he has 2 inch arms. They must've missed that at the scouting combine. Someone ought to give him T-Rex as his handle. Anyway, I digress.
Oakland...I know most people are expecting a close win. I will only say that Oakland's Defensive Front is the tallest MIami will face all season. So we'll quickly figure out whether RT and Sherman have figured out how to prevent batted balls. The interior of Oaklands line..Kelly and Seymour are both 6-6. That's an inch taller than JJ Watts.

European Union banks would be forced to push much of their trading activities into separately capitalized units and face extra bonus rules under plans proposed by an EU-mandated working group.
The group, led by European Central Bank Governing Council member Erkki Liikanen, also calls for a toughening of Basel bank capital rules and for lenders to issue debt designed to be written down in crises. The non-binding recommendations are part of a detailed blueprint to protect taxpayers from bailouts.
"This report will be the cornerstone of our work" on bank structure, Michel Barnier, the EU's financial services chief, told reporters in Brussels today. The European Commission "will look at the impact of these recommendations both on growth and on the safety and integrity" of lenders, he said.
U.S. and British regulators have also proposed structural changes to banks in a bid to curtail risks. U.K. Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne plans to force large lenders to separate their consumer and investment banking operations in an overhaul that the Treasury estimates may cost as much as 7 billion pounds ($11.3 billion) a year.
The U.K. plans, drafted by a panel led by former Bank of England Chief Economist John Vickers, won't clash with any EU follow-up to the Liikanen group's recommendations, according to an EU official.
Break Up
U.K. Labour Party leader Ed Miliband said Sept. 30 that he may go further than Vickers and break up banks if he wins the nation's 2015 general election.
Barnier said the commission would seek public comment on the Liikanen group's proposals for the next six weeks before deciding how to proceed. Any steps to implement parts of the report would be proposed "before summer" 2013, Barnier told reporters at a joint briefing with Liikanen.
"Don't ask me today to tell you what lies at the end of the road," he said.
Under the Liikanen group's plan, lenders would transfer trading they conduct on their own behalf and other "high risk" activities to a separately capitalized unit, according to the report.
This so-called trading entity would have to be "legally separate" from other parts of the bank. It also wouldn't be allowed to finance its activities through deposits covered by government guarantees, according to the report. It would be allowed to be part of the same holding company as the rest of the business.
The high-risk activities would include, among others, unsecured loans to hedge funds and private equity investments, according to the report.
Activities that could remain outside the trading unit would include interbank lending, mortgages and small business loans, as well as some hedging activities for non-bank clients.
The separation rule would apply to banks with available-for-sale assets worth more than 100 billion euros ($129 billion) or amount to more than 15 percent to 25 percent of a lender's total assets, according to the report. Supervisors would also carry out other assessments before applying the measure, while the "smallest banks" would be exempt.
"The review creates even more uncertainty for U.K. banks," Jeremy Jennings-Mares, capital markets partner at law firm, Morrison and Foerster LLP, said in an e-mail before the Liikanen-group report was published.
Realistic Timetable
"What banks need more than anything now is certainty and a realistic timetable to be able to properly plan for the effect the proposals will have on their business in the long term," he said.
On pay, regulators should consider setting "absolute levels to overall compensation," including banning bonus pots that exceed fixed dividends, according to the report.
The group also called for a share of bonus awards to be in debt that can be written down if a lender gets into difficulties.
Consideration should be given to plans by the European Parliament to set limits on how far bonuses can exceed fixed pay, according to the report.
Such a cap would "substantially ease the task of the supervisory authorities in screening out undesirable remuneration policies," according to the report.
Barnier set up Liikanen group earlier this year to examine possible rules on bank structure. Its 11 members included Jan Vanhevel, the former chief executive officer of KBC Group, and Zdenek Tuma, a former governor of the Czech National Bank.
Banks would need a "period of transition" to implement the separation measures, Liikanen said. The commission needs to "assess the costs and decide whether this leads to a proposal or not."
Other parts of the report call for a toughening of international capital rules set by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, notably those for assets that lenders intend to trade and for real-estate lending.
Options include bolstering a so-called leverage ratio drawn up by the Basel group, which is intended to limit how much a bank can finance its activities through debt, or toughening rules on how much business a lender can do with a single counterparty.
Failing Lenders
"Supervisors' ability to monitor banks has proven inadequate," according to the documents. "The financial crisis has clearly highlighted that the governance and control mechanisms of banks failed to rein in excessive risk taking."
The group also called for changes to plans published by Barnier in June to force creditors to share the cost of stabilizing failing lenders.
Banks should be required to issue so-called bail-in debt that stipulates, in its contractual terms, when losses may be imposed on the bearer, according to the report.
"Detailing the characteristics of the bail-in instruments in this way would greatly increase marketability" of bank debt and "facilitate the valuation and pricing of these instruments," according to the report.

Luxist Gift Guide 09: Holiday Fragrance Sets
Filed under: Cosmetics and Fragrance, Holiday Guides
Luxury fragrances make some of the best holiday gifts. Finding a unique scent that becomes your lady's signature scent can become a gift you both enjoy throughout the year. We sniffed, viewed, and sampled some of the hottest new scents out this season, some traditonal, some non, and some simply divine, to bring you the absolute best gifts for the holiday to satisfy any variety of perfume wearing personalities.
Juliette Has a Gun
Romano Ricci knows a thing or two about perfume. The grandson of Robert Ricci (creator of the cult classic L'Air du Temps) established his own name after creating four killer scents under his Juliette Has a Gun line, the sexiest thing to come out of Paris in a long time. Created for a woman who wants a more masculine perfume (yes, please!), the newest bottle in the collection, Calamity J., is inspired by Calamity Jane, the first cowgirl to act, drink, and shoot like a man. This decadent scent, however, is made without the hesperide or dihydromircenol, which are present in 90% of men's fragrances. Actress Lou Doillon (below), daughter of singer Jane Birken and director Jacques Doillon, serves as the perfect muse for Calamity J, the perfect scent for a strong, fierce woman. Fans of the line will love Juliette's other decadent fragrances: Lady Vengeance is a sultry sweet musk made of Bulgarian Rose, Patchouli and Vanilla. For a lighter scent, Miss Charming has notes of Morrocan Rose, Musks and wild fruits, and Citizen Queen, which focuses on the delicate rose, harps on the elegant classicism of perfume of the 1950s. Juliette Has a Gun scents are truly deadly and not for the faint of heart. One spritz will make you swoon. Be careful because a little goes a long way.

Varnishes. The word varnish has become something of a catchall term applied to a variety of liquid preparations that, when applied to a surface, dry to a clear, hard, and often shiny surface. They are good general-purpose clear finishes.
Natural varnishes are made from natural resins suspended in an oil base (typically, boiled linseed or tung oil); the solvent used is turpentine or mineral spirits. A wide variety of natural varnishes are sold for different uses, from marine applications to gymnasium floors to furniture. Exterior varnishes tend to have more oil, those for interior use less. So-called long oil has the richest mix of oil, so its strength is waterproofing, making it perfect for the boatyard; medium oil is very durable, so it's the right candidate for floor finishes. Short oil leaves a hard and brittle finish, suitable for furniture.
Polyurethane is a synthetic varnish. It is durable and dries quickly to a clear and transparent finish. It is sold in a variety of different formulations, both oil- and water-based. Polyurethanes and most other varnishes can be bought in glossy, flat, or satin finishes.
Varnishes are more difficult to use than, say, shellac or penetrating oils. They dry slowly (which means that dust and debris can accumulate on their tacky surfaces as they dry) and the surface tends to bubble. When applying varnish, the room should be warm and as dust-free as possible. Stir the varnish before using it, but don't shake the container, as that will cause bubbles to form.The brushes, too, must be clean. Overlap your brushstrokes, and apply the varnish in a very thin layer. Don't over-brush. After varnishing an entire surface, go over it once carefully with the tip of the brush. Don't apply more varnish, but smooth the varnish already there in long, even strokes.
When the varnish has dried completely, smooth it using extra fine sandpaper or steel wool. Apply a second coat. After that has dried, you may wish to rub the finish with steel wool or pumice. Apply a paste wax, and buff the finish thoroughly.
Paints. Varnish, oil, shellac, and French finishes are, for the most part, clear finishes. Paint, in contrast, is opaque, and usually contains colored pigments.
The pigments are finely ground solids that are suspended in the base material, which may be latex, oil, or other substances (lead-based paint now is no longer available because of the toxicity of the lead). Paints are sold for use indoors and outdoors (exterior paints are much more durable, resisting fading, chipping, and peeling). Most are sold in a variety of lusters, depending upon whether they dry to a glossy sheen; a semigloss or satin finish; or a flat or eggshell surface. Gloss and semigloss have the virtue that they can be washed and even scrubbed; flat or satin finishes have a soft, understated presence.
Before being painted, raw woods need to be sealed with a primer coat. This seals the wood and prepares a surface to which the paint to follow can bond. The primer used should be matched to the paint to be used; read the instructions on the can or consult your local paint supplier.
