How to Buy Perfume Online

These days you can buy perfume online just as you can buy almost anything over the Internet. If you want to buy perfume online, however, it is a bit more of a challenge than purchasing certain other goods like books or small appliances. Unless you go to a store or get a chance to sample a friend’s perfume stash, you won’t be sure you actually like the scent until it arrives at your door.

after some miles in the desert

Back in LA, ready to hit the plane later this evening… thus, here is a quick update on things before I immerse deeply into bottling and packaging in Zurich. The desert was extraordinary cold, for two days, with low temperatures in the night in the 40ies not too comfortable.

eating donuts

Sitting on the veranda of the motel, blinking into the sun, eating donuts (the devil like another guest here called them this morning) and drinking coffee in a futile attempt to wake me up before I meet Katie. With my European coffeein receptors still expecting heavy dosis of real stuff, there is little hope that I will get into driving mode. Well, then.

an update from LA

I was savely beamed from there to here and got right into my car in LA and right into the motel which is basically around the block of Capitol Records building. Of course, the friendly car rental guy asked his usual questions about upgrading my REALLY small car into something more convenient. and I was warned about the insurance (I am broke if I have an accident) and they feared that I cannot fill the gas tank of the car, thus they have this wonderful option…

Shroud of Turin.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Flowers and pollen A Chrysanthemum coronarium In 1997 Avinoam Danin, a botanist at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, reported that he had identified the type of Chrysanthemum coronarium, Cistus creticus and Zygophyllum whose pressed image on the shroud was first noticed by Alan Whanger in 1985 on the photographs of the shroud taken in 1931. He reported that the outlines of the flowering plants would point to March or April and the environs of Jerusalem. In a separate report in 1978 Danin and Uri Baruch reported on the pollen grains on the cloth samples, stating that they were appropriate to the spring in Israel.
