Perfumes: The A-Z Guideby Luca Turin, Tania Sanchez

Pompous names, bizarre ads, hundreds of new scents a year-the multibillion-dollar business of fragrance has long resisted understanding. At last the first critical-and critically acclaimed-guide to perfume illuminates the mysteries of this secretive industry. Lifelong perfume fanatics Luca Turin (best known as the subject of Chandler Burr's The Emperor of Scent) and Tania Sanchez exalt, wisecrack, and scold through their reviews with passion, eloquence, and erudition, making this book a must-have for anyone looking for a brilliant fragrance-or just a brilliant read.
Editorial Reviews
Less a guide in the sense of helping people choose the perfect fragrance than a wide-ranging, critical review of some 1,200 perfumes, both famous and obscure, this comprehensive book is unfailingly entertaining. A collaboration between Turin, a well-known olfactory scientist, and Sanchez, a perfume collector and critic, the book brings their exquisite connoisseurship to life in a contagious manner. Their passion for a few scents and their outrage at the others' failings make for entry after entry of hilarious, catty comments interspersed with occasional erudite, eloquent disquisitions. French perfumery Guerlain is subject to both: Jicky is "an object lesson in perfumery... a towering masterpiece," while Aqua Allegoria Pivoine Magnifica is "like chewing tin foil while staring at a welding arc." Other startlingly evocative metaphors abound, especially those comparing perfumes to people, whether someone real (Amy Winehouse, Paris Hilton) or a general type (socialites, someone ill with bronchitis). This will be a must-have for anyone who already loves perfumes, though many of the reviews will cause violent disagreement, and those who aren't utterly perfume-obsessed will still appreciate the opening essays on olfactory science, the history of perfume, general types of fragrances and how to choose perfumes.

In this guide to fragrance selection, renowned fragrance biophysicist Turin (The Secret of Scent) and writer/editor Sanchez (a frequent contributor to MakeUpAlley.com) review more than 1200 men's and women's fragrances in highly accessible, occasionally snarky, richly descriptive language. Sanchez's introductory essays are both illuminating and highly engaging. She brings a witty, intellectual edge to her account of the changing industry and the complex process of choosing scents. Sanchez and Turin employ the star-system and offer two-word synopses for each scent. For all fashion-focused collections.

Cool Water (Davidoff)
• *
• *
• aromatic fougère
This beautiful 1988 composition made Pierre Bourdon famous and was imitated more times, I'll wager, than any other fragrance in history save Chypre. The problem with successful masculines is that you associate them with the legion of aspirational klutzes who wore them for good luck. Trying to assess CW without conjuring up the image of some open shirted prat with hair gel is a bit like the Russian cure for hiccups: run around the house three times without thinking of the word wolf. This said, unlike Chypre, CW belongs to the category of things done right the first time, like the first Windsurfer and the Boeing 707. Countless imitations, extensions, variations, and complications failed to improve on it or add a jot of interest to this cheerful, abstract, cheap, and lethally effective formula of crab apple, woody citrus, amber, and musk. Now let women wear it for a decade or two. LT
L'Air du Désert Marocain (Tauer) ***** incense oriental
The sweet, resinous smell of amber, the smell of the classic perfume oriental, has long been weighed down with vanilla and sandalwood ballast, decorated with mulling spices, bolstered with musk, made come-hither, ready for its closeup, and we are quite used to it—but this is not amber's first life. Perfume, as has been pointed out many times, means "through smoke," named for the fragrant materials burned to clean the air and therefore the spirit. Since the angel Metatron sees fit to deliver his messages to the world nowadays via the guitar of Carlos Santana, it only makes sense that the as yet unnamed angel of perfume chooses to speak through an unassuming Swiss chemist from Zurich with a mustache and a buttoned shirt. L'Air du Désert is talented amateur perfumer Andy Tauer's second fragrance, after the rich oriental rose of Maroc pour Elle; one hale breath of Désert's vast spaces clears the head of all the world's nonsense. There is something about the ancient smell of these resins (styrax, frankincense) that on first inhalation strikes even this suburban American Protestant with no memories of mass as entirely holy, beautiful, purifying, lit without shadow from all sides. Even without the fragrance's name to prompt me, I would still feel the same peace when smelling it that I've felt only once before, when driving across the Southwestern desert one morning: all quiet, no human habitation for miles, the upturned bowl of the heavens infinitely high above, and the sage and occasional quail clutching close and gray to the dun earth. Each solitary object stood supersaturated with itself, full to the brim, sure to spill over if subjected to the slightest nudge. Wear this fragrance and feel the cloudless sky rush far away above you. TS
Eternity for Men (Calvin Klein)
• *
• mandarin lavender
An interesting twist on the perennially pleasant citrus-lavender accord using the (musically speaking) flattened note of mandarin rather than straight citrus, or the corresponding sharp of lime. This is a very skillfully composed and likable fragrance, but I wish more cash had been spent on the formula. It smells good but cheap, which would be fine if the overall structure were unpretentious as in Cool Water, whereas it is distinctly aspirational. LT
Spellbound (Estée Lauder)
• medicated treacle
Powerfully cloying and nauseating. Trails for miles. Frightens horses. Gets worse. TS
Tommy Girl (Tommy Hilfiger)
• *
• *
• tea floral
No fragrance in recent memory has suffered more from being affordable than Tommy Girl. It's as if it were deemed less desirable for being promiscuous. Despite all the historical evidence to the contrary (Brut, Canoe, Habanita, and the first J-Lo), the world is still crawling with naïve snobs who'd rather believe their wallet's loss than their nose's gain. Tommy Girl's origins were explained to me by creator Calice Becker, who was brought up in a Russian household, with a samovar always on the boil and a mother with a passion for strange teas. At Becker's instigation, the legendary chemist Roman Kaiser of Givaudan sampled the air in the Mariage Frères tea store in Paris to figure out what gave it its unique fragrance. From this a tea base was evolved, in which no one showed much interest. The idea waited several years until Elléna's excellent but only remotely tea-like Eau Parfumée au Thé Vert (Bulgari) came out in 1993. Its success made it possible for Becker to submit a tea composition for the Hilfiger brief. She won it, eleven hundred formulations later the perfume was finalized, in collaboration with a brilliant evaluator who went on to study philosophy. Tea makes excellent sense as a perfumery base, since it can be declined in dozens of ways, as flavored teas will attest: Soochong, Earl Grey, jasmine, and so on. In that respect it could serve as a modern chypre, a mannequin to be dressed at will. Tommy Girl clothed it in a torero's trafe de luces, a fresh floral accord so exhilaratingly bright that it could be used to set the white point for all future fragrances. Remarkably, late in the project, Hilfiger's PR firm asked Becker to give them so e reason to label the fragrance as typically American. Quest's resident botany expert was called in, and to everyone's surprise found that the composition fell neatly into several blocks, each apparently typical of a native American botanical. So it goes with projects whose sails are filled by the breath of angels. LT
The composition miraculously turned out to fall into accords typical of native American botanicals? Put me on record as skeptical. Tommy Girl smells great, though, and has been copied relentlessly. TS
Beauty Rush Appletini (Victoria's Secret)
• Jolly Rancher
Victoria's Secret has determined that its customers need (1) cleavage and (2) to smell precisely like dime-store candy. You may discern an implicit insult to the male mind in this pair of facts. TS

I found a couple of great reviews for colognes I was considering buying and their descriptions were very accurate and written in a compelling manner. The book is a good read from cover to cover and both informed and entertained me. Well worth buying if you have an interest in perfume.
As a critical reference book for the art and science of perfume, this book is a sheer delight. For anyone fascinated by fragrance, confused about what to buy - it is informative and fun to read.
a great read, the honesty is much appreciated and makes this guide indespensible.
This book is well, entertainly and sparklingly written, like a fine perfume itself. I carry it around with me just to dip into. Exuberant, fizzy, informative and modent, buy it if you are a student (or wanna-be like me) student ot perfume!

External Effects of Agricultural Production in Italy and Environmental Accounting
This paper deals with the valuation of some negative external effects arising from agricultural production in Italy. External effects are treated in a transformation function as a 'bad' output additional to the normal output of a production activity. In this case we can distinguish a price component or shadow price of the external effect and a quantity component and estimate them separately. In order to calculate the price component of the external effects we first estimate one point on the marginal external costs curve and then try to obtain the whole curve, i.e. external costs associated to different levels of emissions in different years. As to the quantity component, net emissions of Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium have been estimated. The aggregate value of external effects is then calculated for thirty years from 1961 to 1991 and deducted from the value added of the agricultural sector, as a first step towards the correction of national accounting aggregates to take environmental degradation into account.

Key Chart Level to Watch in Wheat Futures
Following last week's post about corn futures, we continue our focus on grains by highlighting a support area to watch in wheat futures.

In the best written and staged moment in this lackluster play, Murphy gives voice to the actors' internal thoughts, and it's telling that most of them are focused on offstage dramas playing out in their lives rather than their show. »Read Full Article(1)

The Milwaukee Public Library Foundation's annual Ben Franklin Awards Celebration was a bestseller this year. Or maybe a better description might be that it was a home run, as the event honored Milwaukee Brewers owner Mark Attanasio and his wife, Debbie. The fete, held at the public library on Oct. 24, drew a heavy contingent of Brewer owners and friends that included longtime Brewer announcer and local icon Bob Uecker who was there with his wife, Judy.
The Lubar family, partial owners of the team, were there in force including Shel and Marianne Lubar, their son and daughter-in-law David and Madeleine and daughter Joan Lubar. Cecelia Gore, who heads the Brewers' foundation, was there with her husband, Randy Bryant. So was Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett, Dan and Janne Keegan, Samantha Ernest, Marti and Andy Wronski, Ted Bobrow, Bob and Joan Enters,Katie Gingrass, Jim Meyer, Meredith Malone, Andrew and Tai Pauls, Gina Peter, Fran and Judith Croak, Nancy Hernandez, Barbara Stein,Greg and Rhonda Oberland, Bruce and Peppy O'Neill, Ryan Otto and local historian John Gurda. »Read Full Article
Video: Kacey Musgraves covers 'Are You Lonesome Tonight'
Since the release of her debut single, "Merry Go Round" last year, Kacey Musgraves has been a constant source of refreshing country music surprises. Her album, "Same Trailer, Different Park," was the first in a string of strong female releases this year that have reignited the classic sounds of Nashville in fresh new ways that embrace the music's traditions.
Now, Musgraves has done it again with her recent appearance on the Grand Ole Opry, where she tapped band mate, guitarist and a talented vocalist in his own right, Misa Arriaga for a duet of "Are You Lonesome Tonight" - a song with its origins in the 1920s that was made most famous, of course, by Elvis Presley. At the Opry, Musgraves and Arriaga harmonized tenderly and beautifully, while the steel guitar dripped with emotion behind them. It was a stunning moment on the WSM-AM radio show that you can now watch online below. »Read Full Blog Post

A fair sized Chinatown existed in Spokane for years that started when the railroad came through in 1883. It consisted of a network of alleys between Front Avenue (today's Spokane Falls Boulevard) and Main Avenue that stretched east from Howard Avenue to Bernard Street about four blocks. The Chinese population gradually thinned out until the alley became abandoned by the 1940s. All the remains of Chinatown were demolished for parking for Spokane's Expo '74.
In the 1880s, Spokane had a "bustling Chinatown" which was as big as three to four blocks "... stretching from Howard Street to Bernard Street ..." along Spokane Falls Blvd. It earned the nickname "Japanese Alley" or "Trent Alley".[1] More sources said that the Chinatown swelled even more during the Franklin Delano Roosevelt era with the internment of Asian peoples due to the war against Japan.[2] An old newspaper article shows that an annual convention for the Chinese Hip Sing organization was held in 1924.[3]

Carolina Miranda (°1914, Casper, Wyoming) creates performances and media art. By demonstrating the omnipresent lingering of a 'corporate world', Miranda tries to create works in which the actual event still has to take place or just has ended: moments evocative of atmosphere and suspense that are not part of a narrative thread. The drama unfolds elsewhere while the build-up of tension is frozen to become the memory of an event that will never take place.
Her performances are given improper functions: significations are inversed and form and content merge. Shapes are dissociated from their original meaning, by which the system in which they normally function is exposed. Initially unambiguous meanings are shattered and disseminate endlessly. By investigating language on a meta-level, she tries to grasp language. Transformed into art, language becomes an ornament. At that moment, lots of ambiguities and indistinctnesses, which are inherent to the phenomenon, come to the surface.
Her works focus on the inability of communication which is used to visualise reality, the attempt of dialogue, the dissonance between form and content and the dysfunctions of language. In short, the lack of clear references are key elements in the work. By putting the viewer on the wrong track, her works references post-colonial theory as well as the avant-garde or the post-modern and the left-wing democratic movement as a form of resistance against the logic of the capitalist market system.
Her works demonstrate how life extends beyond its own subjective limits and often tells a story about the effects of global cultural interaction over the latter half of the twentieth century. It challenges the binaries we continually reconstruct between Self and Other, between our own 'cannibal' and 'civilized' selves. Carolina Miranda currently lives and works in Los Angeles.

Posted on 09/05/2009 9:52:05 AM PDT by smokingfrog
Hard-edged propaganda now suffuses America's history textbooks. A thorough cover-to-cover reading of almost any high school history text leaves you with the impression that the United States is at best embarrassing, and at worst a menace to world peace.
I think I was in fifth grade when I began to suspect that textbooks weren't entirely on the level. The first tip-off came from the word problems in math class. They typically began with scenarios that, even to a 10-year-old, seemed a little unlikely: "Julio's mom is a welder. His father is a pediatric nurse. If his mom welds for 9 hours a day, then..."
Or: "If Maria wins her first three prizefights by knockout, and her next three by TKO, how long before she can leave her job as a lumberjack and fight full time?"
The characters in my textbooks didn't sound like anyone I had ever met. Years later I realized, that was exactly the point. The educators who wrote them weren't interested in describing the world as it was, or had been, but rather as they wanted it to be. They were ideologues, and my math and history books were their pamphlets, disguised as academic texts.
Thirty years later, few textbooks bother with the disguise. Entire chunks of the English language have been banned from the classroom, liquidated in a P.C. purge. First to go were words containing the dreaded term "man," the three letters most offensive to professional feminists. Mailman, chairman, snowman, fisherman, manhole cover--every one now extinct, disdained relics of a bygone age.

It's bad enough we have to correct our kids about behavior and moral issues now we have to correct them on what they learn in school. All part of a bigger picture..
As I watched Tucker Carlsons EXCELLENT report I began
to weep and thank God for Fox News. I have known about
revisionist textbooks since the 70's. What struck me was
that I was seeing this on a network news program other
than "Pray TV".
I believe we are too late. At least three generations have
been indoctrinated by the status quo.
Cruschev was right... they have buried us from within.
My oldest daughter is 24 and she and 2 of her 3 siblings were homeschooled.
Once when she was about 7 we were reading books from the library and she said, "Why doesn't anyone in these books look like me?"
My daughter has fair skin, very light blond hair, and bright blue eyes.
It was stunning to watch this documentary. The forces are heavily at work in taking the Americanism out of America and inserting the 'gay', 'green', 'diversity' hype on the citizens. And rewriting history and our National holidays....hmmm wasn't it michele obama who also said that would be done?
Revisionism is a powerfull and effective tool over time.
The socialist left has ****always***** been in control of government K-12 education. Please read about the philosophies of the earliest proponents of modern government education. The goal of these mid-1800 century activists ( and later, early 1900's educational leaders) has **always** been the creation of a compliant, uniform, and bland citizen-worker for the fascist state.
Government schools **ARE** socialism in action. They have always (from their beginnings in the mid-1800s until finally nationwide in the early 1900s) been a socialist experiment to force citizens to pay for a service that parents want for free! How is it possible to fix SOCIALISM?
Socialism can't be fixed!
Children, just by attending, learn by daily example that government has the power to take money from his neighbor to pay for his educational needs. Even worse, for 13 or more years, his teachers tell him it is his **right** to expect this! It is an easy step from believing one has a right to expect government to force his neighbor to pay for his schooling to expect government to pay for all of his other needs.
I believe that FDR was elected and was able to push through his highly radical socialist schemes precisely because one to two generations of voters had lived the daily experience of socialist schools paid for by their neighbor's taxes.
It's been downhill since then.
Marxism ( mixed with fascism) is our nation's most urgent and serious threat! Government K-12 schools are the Marxist-fascist's **most** important and powerful weapon.
Yet...Few conservatives recognize that Marxism is our nation's most serious threat. Instead, they are focused on the minutia such as Obama's speech on Tuesday, or the health care bill. And...Few conservatives understand that their child's school is killing freedom.
Teaching Math in 1950: - (traditional math)
A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of production is 4/5 of the price. What is his profit?
Teaching Math in 1960:
A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of production is 4/5 of the price, or $80. What is his profit?
Teaching Math in 1970: - (new math)
A logger exchanges a set "L" of lumber for a set "M" of money. The cardinality of set "M" is 100. Each element is worth one dollar. Make 100 dots representing the elements of the set "M." The set "C", the cost of production contains 20 fewer points than set "M." Represent the set "C" as a subset of set "M" and answer the following question: What is the cardinality of the set "P" of profits?
Teaching Math in 1980:
A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of production is $80 and his profit is $20. Your assignment: Underline the number 20.
Teaching Math in 1990: - (Outcome-Based education)
By cutting down beautiful forest trees, the logger makes $20. What do you think of this way of making a living? Topic for class participation after answering the question: How did the forest birds and squirrels feel as the logger cut down the trees? There are no wrong answers.
Teaching Math in 1996:
By laying off 40% of its loggers, a company improves its stock price from $80 to $100. How much capital gain per share does the CEO make by exercising his stock options at $80. Assume capital gains are no longer taxed, because this encourages investment.
Teaching Math in 1997:
A company outsources all of its loggers. They save on benefits and when demand for their product is down the logging work force can easily be cut back. The average logger employed by the company earned $50,000, had 3 weeks vacation, received a nice retirement plan and medical insurance. The contracted logger charges $50 an hour. Was outsourcing a good move?
Teaching Math in 1998:
A logging company exports its wood-finishing jobs to its Indonesian subsidiary and lays off the corresponding half of its US workers (the higher-paid half). It clear-cuts 95% of the forest, leaving the rest for the spotted owl, and lays off all its remaining US workers. It tells the workers that the spotted owl is responsible for the absence of fellable trees and lobbies Congress for exemption from the Endangered Species Act. Congress instead exempts the company from all federal regulation. What is the return on investment of the lobbying costs?
Teaching Math in 2000:
A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of production is $120. How does Arthur Andersen determine that his profit margin is $60?
Teaching Math in 2010:
El hachero vende un camion de carga por $100. El costo de production es........
I would just like to know what sick wonderful mind came up with that. It cracks me up every time-and I teach algebra 1.
Khruschev said "we will take America without firing a shot."

My favorite was on a reading selection from an English exam (I belive it was the NY Regents exam), "The Elderly Man and the Sea" by Hemingway.
How do they get away with changing the title of a very well-known book?
Nope. Khruschev said, "We will bury you from within!"
I remember his speech. He drove by our home in a huge
motorcade on a visit to California around 1960.
'November 1956
During a diplomatic reception... Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev told
Western diplomats:
"About the capitalist states, it doesn't depend on you whether we
(Soviet Union) exist. If you don't like us, don't accept our
invitations, and don't invite us to come to see you. Whether you like
it our not, history is on our side. We will bury you."'

"Learnin' never taught me nothing, and books is the worst!"
""As I watched Tucker Carlsons EXCELLENT report I began
to weep and thank God for Fox News.""
In spite of a note to myself, I forgot to watch this last night. I think I heard that it will be on again tonight at 10 - sure hope that's right as my note now is on the TV screen....
I will elaborate...
When I heard Khruschev say, "We will bury you from
within!" on a TV news broadcast (I believe), I asked
my Mother what that meant. She was a John Bircher
so she was very well informed. In fact, she wore
tinfoil way before it was kewl. Anyway... She said
that communists wanted to take over our country and
they would do it by inserting themselves into positions
of power in the area of public education, the government
and I believe she talked about Unions as well.
I was six years old at the time. I will never forget
K's words nor my mother's astute explanation. Now I
have lived long enough to see that the plan has nearly
been accomplished...
... without firing a single shot.
Yes... there is a replay of TC's Textbook special tonight at 10pm pacific time.
Anybody who sends their kids to a public school has little room to complain about it.
It is at least confusing, if not hypocritical, to submit your children to the authority of the tax-funded, union-run government school and then tell them that the government school's vision of the world is wrong.
"Public School" is best understood as the tax-funded, union-run Bus Ministry of the State Church of Marxist Humanism.
Do yourselves and your childre a favor.
Make the sacrifices to edcucate them yourselves or at least enroll them in a church school or synagogue school.
For college, stay away from state universities or any school run by the Left. That pretty much leaves schools like Patrick Henry College, Pensacola Christian College, Bob Jones University, Liberty University, etc.
If enough people did that, you would effectively disembowell the Leftist machine.
George Bernard Shaw said it best about textbooks- no one ever learned anything from them.
You couldn't find a book in the library featuring a girl with fair skin, blond hair, and blue eyes? My eldest son always has been a voracious reader, reading big books on his own at a very young age. There came a time when he wondered aloud to me: "I noticed all these characters look like you." (i.e. "white" skin, blue eyes, etc.) Think of all the most popular books. There aren't many books in which the main character is black, for example.
You couldn't find a book in the library featuring a girl with fair skin, blond hair, and blue eyes?
Yes, there were, but even at age 7, my daughter was trying to say that the illustrations in the library books were not reflecting her reality.
Of course the "Dick and Jane" primers were in use then, and my little first grade mind simply couldn't understand why Dick and Jane's neighborhood and house didn't look like mine? I would ask, "Mommy, where do Dick and Jane live?"
Later as an adult, I had a job in Marion, Ohio. I would joke with my husband, "I know now where Dick and Jane lived! Marion, Ohio!" :-)
Carlson's special airs tonight at 10pm pst.
After watching Tucker Carlsons Fox News special
on Textbooks and revisionist history, I awoke in the
night with this awful thought.
What if the Obummer regime is purposefully targeting
the elderly through health neglect because they are
the remaining eyewitnesses to historys atrocities
of communism, socialism and fascism?
There is some truth to that, it's like eliminating the eyewitness of a murder, etc.
You can watch it right now on:
Look how many senior citizens have rolled out for the town hall meetings and against the AARP. 0bama will try to marginalize the older generations for sure. Accuse them of being selfish, stuck in the past, and the ones to blame for the manufactured crisis, etc. Maybe not all that far-fetched.
TVO Time.
Homeschool is the way. End public education completely. Let the private market work with private schools and homeschooling. That would end the propaganda for good.
Shaw was also a communist. Textbooks at the time
were Judeo-Christian. Today, Shaw would revere
testbooks. He also believed in giving his money
away and often did ... to total strangers. Easy
for him, he was married to a million heiress.
The only good thing about Shaw was "Saint Joan"
and his friendship with G. K. Chesterton.
While on this subject, consider how few children's books are about homeschoolers! The few novels I'm finding today for young people with homeschoolers as lead characters tend to be either left-leaning or promoting the view that homeschoolers are very strange.
My son, being a voracious reader, now is a prolific writer. He didn't used to be interested in writing. Now I can't seem to stop him from writing. He's written hundreds of pages of stories using his computer. And, oddly enough, none of his characters resemble him or his reality at all. I tried convincing him there might be a market for a story about someone like him - but, so far, he doesn't seem to be interested in writing one.
Excellent observation.
Of course, when my kids were homeschoolers very few families were homeschooling. It was considered very daring. I didn't expect to see any stories about homeschoolers.
Homeschooling could now be as high a 4% of the school age population. I agree with you, children as normal homeschoolers should be, as characters, a natural part of literature for both children and adults.
Aren't we seeing children and adults in wheelchairs in advertising? Well, why not normal homeschoolers in literature?
Good point!

Almost every countertop in our kitchen had the laminate lifting and bubbling, caulking was old and already falling off in spots, water leakage from rain above one basement window, cold spot in front entrance way from ducting not installed properly, (we have used 5cans of expanding foam under the deck and in the utility room to fill gaps as well as the garage).
We had moisture showing up on the ceiling in the front bedroom and it turned out there was no insulation stops in place in the attic - Saddle Ranch would only pay $200.00 of the over $1,000+ of the bill we had to pay (we did not accept this). Many, many problems!!

Asuza Canyon Pics
Had a blast today, Everyone showed up on time aired down and went on in. Place was like a ghost town. A couple other people out there but id say around 10 out there the whole day. No major stucks or breakage. I had a funny blip in the jeep but i reset the comp and all is good. There wasnt much mud out there. but we found enough to get dirty. You WF follks missed out, only a couple sections of big mud areas. LOTS of creek crossing hill climbs and rock.
The place has REALLY changed theres a boiuld field about 3 football fields long.
John crossing the First creek
Brian following
Another crossing
Tim Finally got stuck out there. it was barely stuck. he high centered his rer leaf spring on a rock in the water. Not often do i get to yank Tim out of stuck.
Tims friend Brad has all the mud shots that we will have soon.
After i pulled him out he threw it back in drive and ran through the spot.
Wow Rawk, looks cool. Is it a specific park that you offroad in??
oh and.....
You are coming to Big Bear aren't you??
I should be up ther on the 21st. Im trying to get the wifey to celebrate our wedding anniverary the following weekend. lol
Yea its Asuza OHV. 8 bucks to get in. the last few times i was there it wasnt as nice as this. It was my group and a few others and that was it. typcally its like tijauna in there with the parking lot full. Another guys has a bunch of the mud and hill climb pics. when i get them ill post them up. my poor jeep isnt even in the photos hahaha
It looks like a great place to roll around in, and you guys having the run of the place is just cool as hell. It wasn't as muddy? I was really reluctant about the mud.
I love it, but it's just such a hassel anymore. One time having to spend a day cleaning it out of the seats and I'm mud shy.
haha yea I try to stay out of it too. the place is night and day different as far as terrain. there are soo many boulders its crazy. theres still a muddy area but you can easily drive around it. granted when they lower the lake level there wil be more mud but today was sweet.
Very nice pics. That's not like last time I was there at all. I just remember a big field of nothing but mud. Look like it was fun, sorry to have missed it.
yea theres lots of Rocks. kinda wierd. there still a huge area of nothing but mud. but man its waaay different. alot more creek crossings too
bad thing about the HUGE rock area is that there is stagnant water in there haha. I drove in it a little (didnt have enough clearance for alot of it) and it started to stink haha.

Obama, Biden Parroting Bogus Gas Industry Talking Points [1]
Farron Cousins [2] | May 12, 2013
By Farron Cousins [2] • Sunday, May 12, 2013 - 12:57
For several years, both President Obama and Vice President Biden have been singing the praises [3] of natural gas and hydraulic fracturing, claiming that the upcoming "cheap energy boom [4]" would bring hundreds of thousands of jobs to work-hungry Americans.
The claim, which reached the most ears during the President's 2012 State of the Union Address and was parroted throughout the campaign season, was that the new shale gas bonanza would bring 600,000 new jobs to America over the next decade. With job creation as a top campaign issue, this talking point resonated well with American voters.
And while the talking point was blindly reprinted by countless media outlets [3], the source has been traced back to the dirty energy industry itself. Specifically, a 2012 shale gas / fracking booster sheet [5] produced by the American Petroleum Institute.
API, the oil and gas industry's chief lobbying front in Washington, successfully influenced the President's administration to embrace fracking as part of the "all of the above [3]" energy approach that the administration has pushed since Obama's first days in office [6].
From the president's 2012 State of the Union address [7]: "We have a supply of natural gas that can last America nearly 100 years, and my administration will take every possible action to safely develop this energy."
Just this month, Vice President Joe Biden [8] is quoted in Rolling Stone repeating the claim: "There are going to be 600,000 new jobs out there in the gas industry over the next 10 to 12 years."
But the numbers within the claim don't add up. And when the entire picture of the shale gas industry is taken into context, you see why.
The majority of those 600,000 jobs already exist [9], and job stats in the shale fields aren't matching their rosy forecast. There will not be 600,000 new jobs, even by the industry's own admission.
As it turns out, the shale gas boom has actually been a bust for job creation. While it's true that 36,000 natural gas jobs were added [9] around the country over the last 2 years, the industry wasn't happy about the fact that the increased production drove down the price of natural gas, so the country is now on track to lose 72,000 natural gas jobs [9] in the coming year.
Apparently the dirty energy industry forgot the most basic concept within macro economics: When supply goes up and demand goes down, prices plummet. And that's exactly what has happened with shale gas in America right now [4].
It appears unlikely that many of those "600,000 jobs" will actually materialize [4] in America, but that hasn't stopped the President and Vice President from repeating the industry's talking points, which is enough for them to be able to declare victory on this issue, while the American people are once again live with the fracking mess.

The Middle: Tom Ellis at the Wallace Collection
15 September – 27 November 2016
This September the Wallace Collection presents a new, contemporary exhibition of the work of Tom Ellis. Through a specially commissioned series of paintings and self-made furniture, Tom Ellis: The Middle will redefine the notion of public and private space and examine how the status of the space impacts the objects displayed within it.
Echoing the Wallace Collection's domestic curation, The Middle will be on display in three different spaces within the Museum, displaying enigmatic figurative paintings alongside furniture. By presenting these artworks in the surrounds of Hertford House, The Middle offers a rare opportunity to view contemporary works in direct dialogue with historic fine and decorative art.
Ellis is a British artist, living and working in London and his work has been widely exhibited in the UK and abroad. The Middle sees Ellis' work being displayed against the opulent backdrop of Hertford House, juxtaposing painting and furniture, the contemporary and the historic, addressing whether these juxtapositions of objects affects their status as art.
From Thursday 15th September, private views of Tom Ellis: The Middle will be available to enhance evening events at the Wallace Collection.
To find out more about this exciting new opportunity or to book your reception and private view, please call 020 7563 9507 or email firstname.lastname@example.com

My sentiments exactly Derek!!I was brought up in a household of West Ham supporters - my brother, sister, mum & dad & uncle's were indoctrinated into supporting West Ham United!!I preferred much to my family's consternation, the silky skill's of Glenn Hoddle to anything that West Ham had to offer!!As you could imagine, this has caused a number of rift's within the family unit - but I have been true to the Spurs cause for 35+ years and my support will never, ever change - THFC 4ever!!COME ON YOU SPURS!!!!!

Essential Oils and Their Constituents: Anticonvulsant Activity
AbstractA literature-based survey of plants species and their essential oils with anticonvulsant activity was carried out. As results, 30 species belonging to 13 families and 23 genera were identified for their activities in the experimental models used for anticonvulsant drug screening. Thirty chemical constituents of essential oils with anticonvulsant properties were described. Information on these 30 species is presented together with isolated bioactive compound studies.

Watch Alan Jackson's tribute to George Jones
There have been dozens of tributes to George Jones since his passing two weeks ago, but none is as heartbreaking and poignant as Alan Jackson's performance of "He Stopped Loving Her Today" during the country legend's funeral at the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville last Friday.
The Opry has now made the video of the performance available online as a lasting testament to the impact Jones had on the country music community. From the stark emotion in Jackson's voice and on his face, it is clear that Jones was more than the accolades to his peers. He was an intricate piece of the Nashville family. »Read Full Blog Post

Bruno Mars to headline Summerfest in Milwaukee June 25
Just hours after Summerfest made the surprising announcement that Dave Matthews Band would play the Big Gig instead of Alpine Valley this year, fest officials had more big news: Bruno Mars, Billboard's artist of the year, the forthcoming Super Bowl halftime show headliner, will kick off Summerfest on June 25.
In a relatively short timespan, Mars has sold 130 million singles worldwide and has been nominated for 18 Grammys. He's had a hand on 22 songs that landed in the Billboard Hot 100 charts, and had five songs top the chart, at a rate faster than any solo male artist since Elvis Presley. And his two albums--2010's "Doo-Wops & Hooligans" and 2012's "Unorthodox Jukebox"--have a combined certification total of 60 times platinum across the world. And it just so happens this booking was on the Journal Sentinel's 2014 Wish List. »Read Full Article(9)

#21413 closed Bug (fixed)
select_related "row, fields misalignment" in SQLCompiler.fill_related_selections()

|select_related parent inheritance subclass oracle

Description (last modified by shai)
Given this models for example:
class Place(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=50) address = models.CharField(max_length=80) class Restaurant(Place): serves_hot_dogs = models.BooleanField() serves_pizza = models.BooleanField()
When using select related to prefetch the child, the child fields are not initialized properly:
>>> Restaurant.objects.create(name='Bobs Cafe', address="Somewhere", serves_pizza=True, serves_hot_dogs=True) <Restaurant: Restaurant object> >>> p = Place.objects.all().select_related('restaurant')[0] >>> vars(p.restaurant) {'_place_ptr_cache': <Place: Place object>, '_state': <django.db.models.base.ModelState at 0x2e791d0>, 'address': u'Somewhere', 'id': 1L, 'name': u'Bobs Cafe', 'place_ptr_id': 1L, 'serves_hot_dogs': 1, 'serves_pizza': 1}
serves_pizza and serves_hot_dogs are set to 1 instead of True!
The cause of this bug is kind of tricky. It is actually a general defect because of a "row, fields misalignment" in SQLCompiler.fill_related_selections().
self.query.related_select_cols returns:
[SelectInfo(col=(u't13781_restaurant', u'place_ptr_id'), field=<django.db.models.fields.AutoField: id>), SelectInfo(col=(u't13781_restaurant', 'serves_hot_dogs'), field=<django.db.models.fields.CharField: name>), SelectInfo(col=(u't13781_restaurant', 'serves_pizza'), field=<django.db.models.fields.CharField: address>)]
But it only turns up when using SQL backends that use the misaligned fields for converting the row values depending on the field type (mainly when resolve_columns() is implemented). So for example in MySQL this only happens when boolean fields on the child model are involved, because in this special case the field information is interpreted.
if (field and field.get_internal_type() in ("BooleanField", "NullBooleanField") and value in (0, 1)): value = bool(value)
It won't appear using SQLite but i guess it will appear using Oracle (only tested SQLite and MySQL).

I haven't reviewed the patch, just gave the bug a quick look. Replaced explicit links to tickets in the description with ticket references.
comment:2 Changed 3 years ago by akaariai
- Triage Stage changed from Unreviewed to Accepted
Proposed patch for master here: https://github.com/django/django/pull/1929
I am not sure if the as_pairs change is too much to backpatch. Of course, this is a change to private API and get_default_columns(as_pairs=True) isn't likely that used.
comment:3 Changed 3 years ago by shai
I just tested both PR 1929 and the patch attached to the ticket against Oracle.
Both include the test that fails on master without the fix, the pull request does it more elegantly (where the models for the test already exist).
PR 1929's fix includes an "assert" statement which fails when the test is executed. The patch passes (and its fix appears much simpler). Anssi, do you care to explain what is wrong with it?

Comprehensive Description
Puellina praecox is an encrusting bryozoan. Colonies form irregular patches, composed of a single layer of autozooids. This species is very small; the largest known specimen consists of approximately 20 autozooids. Autozooids are irregular, oval, convex and clearly separated. They range in size from0.14-0.30 by 0.10-0.19 mm. Five spines are present in non-reproductive zooids, and four in reproductive zooids (with an ovicell).
The species is able to colonise shells and hard substrates. It has been recorded at depths of 73-99 metres. Puellina praecox is found as a fossil in the Pleistocene Red Crag of East Anglia, and is only known as a living bryozoan from a few localities off the English Channel coast of Brittany; from the Irish Seam and off Antrim.
Puellina praecox closely resembles Puellina bifida, however P. praecox is less heavily calcified than P. bifida

2 days later I caled and spoke to gentleman to verify and cancelled order. He said it was a good thing I called so soon as this charge would not be on my bill and if it was it could not be removed.
I got a bill in the mail today 11-29-04 saying I had this service. When I called to question the lady that answered the phone said they had a recorded message I ordered this service. The man on the recording was the one I called in the first place and cancelled, and he had said it would not be on bill and asked the phone info.
It seems they put the 2 tapes together to make it sound like I knew i was recorded. No harges have showed up on bill yet but I informed them I would not pay and would report them to attorney general.

Hi, guys,
I've been struggling with this for the last couple of days, and I can't get it to work.
When I click on page 2 it takes me back to the home page, even the URL is the one for the home page. When I click on page 3 or 4 or whatever page number is greater than 2, it works perfectly.
I have already tried using WP_Query or get_posts instead of query_posts, but nothing has worked - some other tries were even worse!
I tried having wp_reset_query after, before, in the middle of the loop or the wp_pagenavi() call and still the same.
Would anyone please have any suggestion to fix this? I'd appreciate any help very much.
Here's my code:
<?php get_header(); ?>
$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
$args = array(
'cat' => 10,
'order' => 'DESC',
'paged' => $paged,
query_posts( $args );
<?php while( have_posts() ): the_post(); ?>

<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php wp_pagenavi(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

Stephen King once toyed with writing a story about traveling inside the pillow on which H.P. Lovecraft laid his head each night, en route to creating the nightmarish tales that King rightly describes as "uniquely terrible in all of American literature."
Daunted and even frightened by such an assignment, King never did it, concluding that the idea of trying to "put all that into a story" would be "ludicrous." »Read Full Article

I just looked today and the wool that was on sale for 15.38/yd is now back to 23.50/yd. I only bought a yd to try it out thinking I would go back for more if I liked it--should have just bought more while it was on sale!!
Anyone else have a good place to get interlock? Any sales?
