 Kenzo Tokyo Cologne for Men Review

The Kenzo Tokyo cologne represents a serene nature amidst a crazy and poetic city, and it rests in the intersection between bamboo and skyscrapers set against Tokyo by night’s sharp city lights. The Kenzo Tokyo cologne is Tokyo as it would be experienced by a Westerner, someone who is dazed and bedazzled by jet lag and bright lights, a businessman ready to lose himself in a city with no limits.

 Humane Hijackers Take Over TWTRCON Feed

As NASA public affairs specialist Stephanie Schierholz took to the stage at Monday’s TWTRCON to weigh in on “customer service,” animal defenders elsewhere took to their Twitter accounts and took over the #TWTRCON hashtag—specifically weighing in on NASA’s plan to fund a misguided, cruel, and wasteful experiment in which dozens of squirrel monkeys would be blasted with harmful space radiation. Tweets about NASA’s radiation experiments started appearing on large projectors flanking the sides of the stage that the conference was using to display tweets about the event. One attendee reported that after the NASA representative responded to the surprise Twitter protest by shrugging her shoulders and rolling her eyes, curious audience members could be heard tapping on their keyboards for more information about NASA’s plans to bankroll the torment of monkeys at the Brookhaven National Laboratory and Harvard’s McLean Hospital.

 PETA Pays Fine for ‘Cowardly’ Bullfighter

On Sunday in Mexico City, bullfighter Cristian Hernández left the ring in the middle of a fight. After he was arrested and charged a fine for breach of contract, he announced his retirement from bullfighting, saying, “I didn’t have the ability, I didn’t have the balls, this is not my thing.” Well, we don’t think that’s exactly right. I mean, any coward can bully an animal.

 Quake at PETCO Stadium Leaves One Brick Intact

Phew! PETA’s “BOYCOTT PETCO” brick* survived the 5.7-magnitude earthquake that shook San Diego’s PETCO Park on Monday—and here’s a photo snapped by an activist last night to prove it: Don’t get me wrong—PETA loves the stadium’s tasty, animal-friendly eats but hates the massive suffering that PETCO causes by buying animals from shady dealers and selling them to anyone who walks in, intentions be damned . Animals like the poor fellow below who are bred for and shipped to PETCO and other pet stores get their world shaken to pieces every single day by being mishandled, abused, or even thrown into the trash to die. They are crammed en masse into crowded, filthy containers at animal distributors such as U.S.

 Wine Talk: A World of Rosés

There are few non-sparkling wines as pleasurable to drink as rosé. (Add bubbles to rosé and you’ve got heaven in a glass.) Most rosé is made by leaving the skins of red wine grapes in contact with the clear juice long enough to impart a pink hue.
