Scope (mouthwash)
Scope is a brand of mouthwash made by Procter & Gamble. It was introduced in 1966, and for many years has been positioned in the marketplace as the purportedly better-tasting alternative to Listerine, the longtime dominant mouthwash product.
Originally available only in mint flavor, Scope is still currently available in original mint (green), but also in a peppermint (blue) & new Scope White. The Citrus Splash flavor was discontinued due to insufficient demand to meet the slightly higher cost of production. There is a new Scope Outlast and a new logo; the old logo on the scope mouthwash is still on sale in available stores. Scope also manufactures "Dual-Blast" mouthwash, which is claimed to remove odors such as garlic and onion from the mouth and throat.
On March 26, 2013 Scope introduced a viral video campaign for a bacon flavored mouthwash. It was intended as an April Fools' Day joke.
Ingredients
The active ingredients of Scope Outlast are cetylpyridinium chloride, domiphen bromide, and denatured alcohol.

Rubycon (band)
Rubycon is an Australian indie and alternative rock group formed in 2007.
Known by their friends and family as "The Conway Family Band", the early three members: Sam Conway (guitar), Max Conway (guitar), and Riley Conway (drums) gained musical and performing experience by busking acoustically on the streets of Canberra for years. The addition of their friend Reuben Styles (bass guitar) completed the band, and thus Rubycon was born. The name Rubycon comes from taking Reuben's first name, and the Conway's last. The band have done various gigs around Canberra to earn local rep and are quite well known around town.
After entering the 2007 National Campus Band Competition, the largest gathering of unknown bands in the southern hemisphere, Rubycon came in second place behind "Will Stoker and The Embers", gaining them a large fan base in their home town of Canberra, and Australia-wide.
In 2008 the band again won the ACT heats of the competition and went on to take out first place in the National Finals of the competition. Some of the prizes included a cheque for $3000, recording time, CDs pressed, and an Australian tour worth $8000.
