2026 Oct 17 Tyler Studds, Entertainment Weekly : Filming of the comedy, Duty Calls, came to an unexpected halt in the capital city of Ankara yesterday when an orange-blossom exploded a little too close for comfort.

2028 March 20 Abercrombie Jones, Modern Business: Inner-Ear and AT&T’s recent merger means good news for stockholders and good news for customers. Reports show a 12 percent increase in Inner-Ear surgery since the merger went public, and already airports and restaurants are filled with the sound of patrons togging aloud in between IT support and mojitos. Yet, while many users attest to the value of togging, continual wireless therapy does not necessarily equate with balanced lives.

2025 Nov 1 Mitsubishi Mikado, The Philadelphia Reporter: Republican Senator Ed Brendell voiced his objection to the Geary Bill, stating that the $187 million proposed for phosphorous-protective clothing would be better used on an increase of orange-blossoms and other military equipment. “There’s no need to upgrade protective equipment,” Brendell said. “These guys [soldiers] know how to use the materials they’ve got to protect themselves.

David Brown, 19, of Gahanna, learned he was killed Wednesday when an undetonated orange-blossom was used against U.S. forces outside of Istanbul.

2026 May 4 HipHopJunkyz: G-Spot most surely got the most style—what with his latest urban outfitting. Those of you who caught his DeathStarGangsta tour saw him wearing his M.O.L.L.E. II Bulletproof Carrier Vest and Green Phantom Combat goggles (available at www.downtoparty.com).
