Hable Hooked Wool Rug 52 52
thrilled love this rug, even my husband loves this rug, it adds a lot to my bathroom April 4, 2014
Seeing Birds Love this rug! This is my second purchase of a Hable Hooked Wool Rug. Easy to keep clean, tightly woven, high quality, and just a beautiful, colorful, chirpy design! March 17, 2014
delightful rugs! I purchased two of these wool runners in fun, seashore-themed patterns. The beachy lifeguard chair rug is bright, well-made and whimsical. It works well in a child's room or in front of a bookcase (if you wish to invite sitting and browsing right there, as children will do!), and also would be fun as a hallway runner in a beach house or vacation home. In the right spot it could fill a niche year-round, or it could be brought out as a seasonal accessory. I put it on one side of the bed during the summer months, to lighten & brighten up our master bedroom. The "sailboats" runner is also summery in feel, but easily versatile enough for year-round use. I have it in my son's bedroom and the vivid colors (blues, red, orange, navy, green) fit so nicely. The boats are fetching and it's a truly handsome design. The quality of these rugs seems outstanding. They are wearing well and have a great (cushy) feel underfoot. The cheery design makes them extra-special and fun. And the sale price made them a great value. I am very pleased with this purchase. September 4, 2013
Sailboat Hable Wool Rug Very nice rug, great sale price, and just like shown in the picture. This is the second hable hook rug we purchased for our beach cottage. Love them both. Love the service I get from Garnet HIll! August 6, 2013
Love my rug Love everything about this rug...colors are rich and sharp - the rug is so soft too! Had purchased a previous design and love it too. July 30, 2013
On "sail" and a great price for a beautiful rug. Used the runner size in the guest bath and it is practical, and pretty. The colors in the rug are happy and enable me to decorate in multiple colors for this guest bath ... every guest has their colored towel hanging on hooks on the back of the bathroom doors.

Alameda County Superior Court judge Frank Roesch issued a temporary ruling Nov. 25 saying that the Alameda Unified School District's anti-bullying lessons do not fall under the category of health education. The ruling is a victory for AUSD and a defeat for the parents who sued the district hoping to keep their children out of the lessons.
A group of La Quinta High School students participated in a leadership conference aimed at bringing together students from Gay-Straight Alliance clubs throughout the Coachella Valley.
La Quinta High students were among 38 valley teens who attended the Oct. 24 conference, hosted by the College of the Desert Gay-Straight Alliance and the Palm Springs chapter of Parents, Family & Friends of Lesbians and Gays.
Noa Raz, one of three Israeli queer youth activists who visited San Francisco last week, recalled the horror of August 1 when a gunman opened fire on a group of queer youths at Tel Aviv's gay community center.
Raz spoke to about 40 members of San Francisco's Jewish LGBT community on November 2, a day after Israeli officials announced the arrest and detainment (which occurred last month) of a suspect in the attack. However, Israeli police don't believe the suspect is the gunman.
"There was blood everywhere," recounted Raz.
SAN FRANCISCO — In one ad after another, voters in California and Maine were besieged with images of what would supposedly happen if same-sex marriage were legal: Students on a field trip to a lesbian wedding, elementary kids gobbling up books featuring gay couples, kindergartners learning about homosexuality from their teachers.
Armed with a message of God's wrath and "imminent doom," six members of the Westboro Baptist Church staged a peaceful protest outside San Diego High School Friday, but were overshadowed by a large counter-demonstration chanting messages of love and tolerance.
Hundreds turned out to try to silence Westboro's members, who wore shirts with the church's URL — GodHatesFags.com — on them. Members of the Topeka-based congregation also carried colorful signs that read, "America is Doomed," "Antichrist Obama is Doomed" and — with no explanation — "You Will Eat Your Babies."
On Oct. 12, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed into law two historic LGBT rights bills – one recognizing the contributions of slain civil rights leader Harvey Milk, and another underscoring that same-sex couples married before the passage of Proposition 8 are entitled to full recognition as married spouses in California, regardless of whether they married in California or out of state. Both bills were sponsored by Equality California (EQCA) and were introduced by Senator Mark Leno (D-San Francisco). The bills were the top priority of EQCA, and were targeted by right wing anti-gay groups who worked to defeat the bills first in the legislature and then urging the governor to veto the measures.
Students representing more than 25 San Fernando Valley Schools will meet this weekend for Gay-Straight Alliance Summit
[Excerpt from pages 7-8] On the national Day of Silence last April, I visited Daniel Webster Middle School in Los Angeles, one of 21 middle schools in California with a G.S.A. California is one of only 12 states that have passed laws to protect students from bullying and harassment on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity or expression.
Data from a 2007 survey commissioned by the San Francisco Unified School District indicate that homophobic remarks are made frequently in schools citywide, regardless of neighborhood, an analysis by the Bay Area Reporter shows.
The survey results also show that teachers and staff often do not intervene when such comments are made.
But changes appear to be happening.
In 2007, students in grades 5-12 were presented with a school climate survey that asked them about violence and harassment, among other things.
Back-to-school time can be fraught with tension for many parents as we realize our children's shoes are too small, they need new knapsacks, and for reasons that surpass understanding, a perfectly working locker padlock somehow isn't cool enough to be acceptable this year.
For LGBT parents, there is an additional concern about how our children's new teachers and classmates will react to knowing our kids have LGBT moms or dads. Do you approach teachers and school administrators beforehand to inform them about your family and detect any potential problems?

English arrogance standing in the way of success
You have to admire Greg Dyke's optimism. The new chairman of the English Football Association told reporters this week that he wanted the national team to reach the semi-finals of the European Championships in 2020 and to lift the World Cup in 2022. Bold words, especially when Roy Hodgson's team face a battle merely to qualify for the 2014 tournament.
Dyke has set up an FA Commission to investigate the reasons for England's shortcomings and to propose solutions that might stop people laughing when he says, "No, seriously, we really can win it in 2022."
He suggested a number of areas in which the English game had gone horribly wrong. Compared to other nations, for example, there are far fewer qualified coaches. England, according to Dyke, has just 1,161 coaches at UEFA A Level, compared to 12,720 in Spain.
He discussed the way in which English players are routinely pulled out of national youth squads for spurious reasons, compared with the European superpowers who will continue to field full internationals in Under-21 tournaments in an effort to ready them for the real thing.
Most of all, he lamented the lack of English players at the top level of the English game. In the 1992-93 season, the inaugural Premier League, 69 percent of the players in the starting lineups were English. Now that figure has dropped to 32 percent.
All of which are perfectly valid and intelligent responses to the problem. But Dyke completely ignored the ground-breaking, clear blue sky thinking first offered by former US star Alexi Lalas when he was asked for his opinion on England in 2010.
"Maybe they're just not very good."
Dyke made it abundantly clear that he was not firing the first shots in a war between his organisation and the all-powerful Premier League, but that is how it will be interpreted nonetheless. The implication that people will take is that had it not been for Peter Scudamore, sat on a throne of kitten skulls in his underwater base in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, everything would be fine. English players would sprout up through the cracks, institutionalised self-interest would fade and the national team would prosper once again.
But as Lalas said, maybe England just aren't very good. Maybe, when they have been very good, their performances haven't matched their potential. Maybe if expectations weren't so high that they inhibited performances they would be more successful. Maybe we're hearing hooves and shouting, "ZEBRA!"
Since lifting the trophy in 1966, England have won just five World Cup knockout games. FIVE! They beat Paraguay in 1986, Belgium and Cameroon in 1990, Denmark in 2002 and Ecuador in 2006. In the 1970s, an era fondly remembered as golden, England failed to qualify for either the 1974 and the 1978 World Cup. In the 1980s, save for a spirited display in Mexico in 1986, more ignominy followed. There was no Premier League, English players were abundant, and yet there was no success.
And then what of the "golden generation"? Regardless of your nationality or your club loyalty, only a fool would seriously suggest that the likes of Steven Gerrard, David Beckham, Michael Owen, Frank Lampard, Rio Ferdinand, John Terry and Sol Campbell were bad players. But they fell short in tournaments too, reaching "only" the quarterfinals in 2002, 2004 and 2006, failing to even qualify for 2008 and stinking out 2010.
A cautious observer might conclude that Sven Goran-Eriksson's consistent last eight finishes represented a natural high water mark for a nation with no real pedigree in international football. Instead, the consensus was that the Swede had failed and few tears were shed when he left.
A new pattern emerged post-Sven. A pattern of flat performances followed by forelock-tugging claims from players that they "had to take responsibility" for the results. But they never did. They just went out the next time, played badly, accepted notional responsibility for taking an hour to score against Andorra and the circle of ineptitude continued to spiral.
Even under the fearsome Fabio Capello there was an arrogance to England's play, matched only by the arrogance of their fans and media. When England scored early against the US in 2010, the commenter warbled, "It's easy!" It bloody wasn't. It ended in a draw. Even then, the English let themselves down, gleefully retweeting the New York Post's knowing headline, "USA wins 1-1" as if the sports desk at the Post didn't understand football, as if English superiority still held, as if the US weren't actually quite good at this game and were getting better all the time.
This was the group that the tabloid newspaper The Sun had mockingly described as "E(ngland), A(lgeria), S(lovenia), Y(anks)." It was anything but easy, and England only just qualified.
Dyke's intentions are good, and his energy is much needed. England does require more coaches, it does need to take youth football more seriously, and it is damaging to only have a pool of 30-40 viable players, especially in the self-proclaimed biggest league in the world.
But until the English address their own arrogance, on the pitch, in the press box and in the stands, you fear that nothing will really change. They are not as good as they think are. Perhaps they never were.

7 Simple Stress Busters
Going from college to high school can seem like a big transition for some students. The academic workload, increase of responsibility and just the aspect of being on your own for the first time in your life can come as a bit of a shock. Many students are not prepared and putting all of the new aspects of college life together at one moment can lead to what all people have but dread: stress.
Stress is a common presence in the lives of many Americans, not just college students, and it can arise from a multitude of factors varying for each individual. College students, however, do face high levels of stress, which can contribute to how successful a student is and their overall college experience. Learning to manage stress can be a key component to a successful college experience. The biggest problem with stress is how to deal with it. What actions can be taken to relieve and prevent future stress? What do you do if you are stressed? Well, here are seven simple tips to help relieve and prevent future stress.
1. Allow plenty of time. Do not get involved in too much or spread yourself too thin, as being too busy is a major source of stress. Allot yourself enough time to complete every task that needs to be accomplished. Decide which tasks are most important and need to be completed first.
2. Exercise. Exercising or just doing something active, whether it's yoga, rock climbing or even karate, is a great stress buster. Exercise improves blood flow to the brain and causes the release of chemicals called endorphins into the bloodstream, which provide feelings of happiness and an overall sense of wellbeing.
3. Get plenty of rest. Sleep is important in the management of stress meaning that getting enough sleep allows time for your mind to refocus, recharge and rebalance. Sometimes getting in a daily nap or going to bed early one night may be all you need.
4. Talk with a friend or family member. If you are very stressed, talk to someone. Find someone that you feel comfortable talking to and tell them what is on your mind. Sometimes getting other peoples perspective or just getting things off your chest in general can make all the difference.
5. Get some quiet time. As in college life, alone time is hard to find. Personal space is rare for students; bathrooms and bedrooms are shared as well as the gym and even the library. Finding time to yourself is difficult. However, it is important to find a space where you can go and be alone to escape from the crazy world of college life. Getting sufficient quiet time in which you can regain thoughts and just relax can work wonders on your stress levels.
6. Make room for fun. It is important to make time for activities that you enjoy doing – the activities that you do for you, for fun. Everyone has something that they love doing and that makes them happy when doing it, whether its playing a sport, the guitar or even doing volunteer work. Find something you love and use that as your go-to-activity when you feel stressed.
7. Keep things in perspective. College life may seem overwhelming, as there are many things that you want to do. Although this is the case, there is only so much a person can handle and the reason why you are in college must not be, but often forgotten, is academics. No matter what you choose to involve yourself in, the most important priority is always academics. Nothing else will matter if you do not succeed academically.
Stress, like many things in life, is manageable and how you deal with stress holds much significance. Following these seven simple tips will help de stress your life, allowing you to lead a more successful and fun college career.

Celiac Sprue
Celiac Sprue Overview
Celiac sprue, also known as celiac disease, gluten-sensitive enteropathy, and gluten-induced enteropathy, is a chronic disease of the digestive tract that interferes with the digestion and absorption of nutrients from food. People with celiac sprue cannot tolerate gluten, a protein commonly found in wheat, rye, barley, and to some degree, oats. When affected individuals ingest foods containing gluten, the lining (mucosa) of the intestine becomes damaged due to the body's immune reaction. Because the lining of the intestine contains essential enzymes for digestion and absorption, its destruction leads to malabsorption, a difficulty in absorption of food and essential nutrients. As result, celiac sprue is often considered a malabsorption disorder.
Persons with celiac sprue experience improvement in the condition when on a strict, gluten-free diet and relapse when dietary gluten is reintroduced. With treatment,celiac sprueis rarely fatal. However, untreated and unrecognized celiac disease may slightly increase the risk of developing intestinal lymphoma, a form of cancer.

Well I'm thinking one of George's new managers has been really throwing his weight around . Tall with glasses hum ? He did something similar to me and a few other people I know . Fits in with the other rude nasty managers there . Oh that managers name is David Batista I know cause I used to work there . And I would be very interested in that video
Georgie's Alibi
3100 3rd Ave N
St Petersburg, FL 33713
Jan 30th, 2013 my friends and I were visiting the beautiful city of St. Petersburg, Florida.
We were excited to explore the night life and we went to the bar called "Georgie's Alibi". The place was nice. The bartenders inattentive, but that's not all. My friend from Russia, who did not speak English well by the way wanted to have some fun and dance a little bit. He took his sandals off so it be easy to dance. He didn't know the rules on the dance floor and it was not allowed to dance barefoot. I was just sitting and chatting with other customers by the bar. In 15 minutes I saw the security guard was pushing my friend to the exit in a rude way from my point of view. I came up to the guard and I asked him what had happened. He told me to mind my own business and get back to where I was, witch sounded rude enough too. My response was: "it's my business because he is my friend and I need to know why you kicked him out." The security guard explained that it was manager's order to take my friend out because he was dancing barefoot. Once again, my friend didn't speak English well! And the manager could've asked me (as it was obvious that we were hanging together) or someone else to explain to the poor Russian guy the rules of the bar. But the manager didn't bother to find a way to let the guy know that he couldn't dance barefoot, he JUST WANTED TO THROW HIM OUT!!! I did attempt to fix it and I explained to the manager that my friend didn't speak English well. And my friend apologized to the manager and promised him to follow the rules in the future, but the manager didn't care about the apology and ordered to security: "GET THEM ALL THEM OUT OF HERE!" It was very, very, VERY rude!!! I didn't get the managers name. I asked him what his name was but he just turned his back on me and never gave me response! All I know is that it was a tall guy wearing glasses. And I also do have some video from this story. It is available if someone's interested.
There are a lot of other places with nice and smart managers! "Good luck" to the owner of "Georgie's Alibi". I hope you are smarter then your employees! I definitely would not recommend this place to anyone. So "good luck" "Georgie's Alibi" in getting new customers!
Miami, FL
It was alright, but you make your own party – First time in St. Petes, so we found this place alright. The drag show was ok, but I do have to say I come LA where its really amazing. Bartenders were awesome!!!
AWFUL!!!!!! – OMG!! My first visit to this place was unbelievably awful! It was after the St. Pete Pride Parade on June 24th, 2011. We sat we our friends and were completely ignored by the waiter. When we addressed him that we wanted to order he completely ignored us and went on his business. We were a group of 4 females. I got the feeling that he didn't want to serve us because we were females. I couldn't understand his attitude towards us. After 20 minutes, 2 guys sat behind us and the waiter went and got their order before us. OMG! We're we celebrating equality on that day? and to have this old waiter completely ignore us like that - What's happening here? I tried looking for a manager, but there was no one to complaint to, so we decided to leave and eat some place else. WOW!!!!!!
I hostile invirement ! Vary Rude General Manager. – I found the music to boring and the bartenders lazy and the General manager to be offensive. Not going back . I been a customer for 8 years and i don't know any employees due to massive turnover.
Great place to hang out with friends – Georgies is really a professionally run establishment and is a great place to meet up with your friends and have drinks and food.
The prices are a bit high, but if you go during happy hour, which is from open until 9:00 the two for one special drinks make up for it. If you go later, there is never a cover, so the higher drink prices make sense at this time.
The only drawback is the music - they used to have a nice mix of music during the day - however, now it is not uncommon to see the same video reel 4-5 times in one week. When there is a DJ, he does not take any requests and seems to play what he likes. It's not uncommon for people to complain about this to staff and management, to no avail. Typically this crowd loves their dance music, and the DJ will clear the floor with Hip hop.
A great place to Party like a Rock Star – I really love Georgie's Alibi because I feel safe and undisturbed when I attend. I usually go for Thursday Long Island and I always have a blast. The drinks and food are all at a reasonable price. I love the music but the only draw back with the music is the DJ/VJ stop playing hiphop music because of the crowd it was drawing. The good thing about not playing hiphop music is that it's fewer fights in the club.

The tour takes 90 minutes. You can opt for just the 90-minute tour for $19. For $21, you can choose to get off and on all day, or for $25, you can get the addition of one of the historic houses. For an additional $15, you can also take a riverboat cruise. That will be the first decision you have to make. The bus makes 14 stops as it travels around the 2.5 miles of the historic district; you can get on the bus at anyone of these stops and purchase your ticket from the driver.
Our driver's name was Jack, and he had a great sense of humor. He had us laughing a good deal of the time. Along with the humor, he had a seemingly endless flow of trivia and gossip about the city of Savannah. He took us to many of the squares. We learned about the monuments on them, who was buried under them, and the buildings surrounding them. It was the perfect way to get our feet ready for trekking through the city. We bounced down the hill to the Riverwalk, cruised through some of the residential neighborhoods of the city, and circled city market.
We learned that the cotton gin was invented in Savannah, that the cobblestones on the streets of the Riverwalk were originally ballast on the ships that sailed there, that Savannah had the first motorized fire department in the country, and that you can rent some of the squares and many people do so for weddings and social events.
Grayline also offers several specialty tours, including The Book Tour, Low Country Tours, ghost tours, and historic tours. There really is a tour for every taste.

A bus tour is the best thing to do if you don't have lots of time for sightseeing because you'll learn a lot quickly. I also would recommend it as the first thing to do if you do have more time because you can learn a little about everything and choose what you want to learn more about, then using the on-off feature to get around. We bought our tickets pretty late in the day, so they let us do the full 90-minute tour that day and then save our ticket so we could use the on-off feature the next day. This was excellent because they stop running at around 4:30pm.
The tour guides were nice and gave lots of neat information about all of the things in Savannah.
The next day we toured the maritime museum, which has lots of models of ships from Savannah's history. We also toured the Andrew Lowe house, which was one of the choices for a tour when you bought your ticket. If you're interested in a particular house, make sure you note which days its open/closed when you purchase your bus ticket! This was a nice, relaxing way to fit lots of sightseeing into a small amount of time.

The shops on River Street (the riverfront) offer many personal and souvenir options. There are also many restaurants along the riverfront and another visitor's center in case you need additional maps and directions. Savannah has many historic points of interest. Be sure to check out the Gray Line Tours-Savannah website for additional tour options and prices. They offer discounts for AAA members.

Forward planner
The forward planner helps people plan for and implement NICE guidance by:
- summarising published guidance organisations may still be implementing
- listing forthcoming guidance to help NHS bodies plan ahead
- including an indicative cost for England for forthcoming guidance, based on the Institute's draft guidance where published
Using the forward planner
The forward planner is an Excel spreadsheet. By downloading it to your PCs and opening it in Excel, you can use all the features of that programme. The data can be sorted by any column. 'Auto filter' has been added to the file so that types of data can be selected, such as published guidance, or technology appraisals.
- Download the latest forward planner
- There is now a video tutorial available explaining how to use the forward planner in Windows Media Player and Quick Time format.
The spreadsheet contains the following columns:
|Whether guidance is published or in development. Can filter to display only published guidance, or guidance in development.
|Publication date/ Anticipated publication date
|Month that guidance was - or will be - published. Where publication date is unknown, usually additional analysis has been requested, or an appeal is in progress.
|Type of guidance
|For example, clinical guideline or technology appraisal
|Short title
|Short descriptive title, instead of full published title.
|Potential providers affected by the guidance
|Which sectors will be affected by the guidance. Can filter to display the guidance for a particular sector.
|Impacts on payment by results
Whether guidance impact on either the cost of activity provided under payment by results (PbP) or the levels of activity commissioned.
|Funding considerations
|Additional comments on the previous column.
|Related recommendation reminder or commissioning guide produced
|Identifies the guidance for which these further tools have been developed.
|Recurrent costs
|Actual (or estimated) recurrent costs for England, in £000.
|Non-recurrent costs
|Actual non-recurrent costs for England, in £000.
|Support materials produced
|Gives details of the implementation support tools produced for this guidance. These columns are hidden but can be unhidden by clicking the + sign above column W
|Date row last updated
|Date entry was last updated. Helps identify what has changed since the forward planner was last downloaded.
Cost estimates on the forward planner
The forward planner has been updated to include draft costs for guidance that is in development, as well as the costs identified by the costing team for guidance that is already published. This will allow users to plan effectively for the costs, savings and opportunities to re-direct resources that arise from implementing NICE guidance. Prior to publication costs for clinical guidelines and public health are assessed into the following categories based on best information known at the time:
- Cost saving - it is anticipated that net cost is less than £0
- Low cost - it is anticipated that the net cost for England is less than £30 million
- High cost - it is anticipated that the net cost for England is greater than £30 million
Anticipated costs for technology appraisals are initially based on the maximum cost anticipated if the technology received an unqualified yes for the whole patient group referred to in the scope of the appraisal. As more information becomes available - such as publication of the appraisal consultation document then this cost estimate will be refined.
The cost estimates are based on a number of assumptions and provide an indication of the likely impact, but are not absolute figures. When guidance is published a more thorough costing exercise is undertaken and more detailed estimates are provided in the costing tools that accompany the guidance.
If you have comments or suggestions for improving the forward planner, please email email@example.com.

Indulge in some sparkles!
Yes, I've mentioned sparkly styles for the new year before, but what better time to bring in the bling than on this side of winter Solstice, waiting for the days to get longer and knowing that there's still a lot of winter to come. Also: sparkles!!
You can use our Browse by Pattern & Texture feature to go straight for the sparkles, or maybe you're feeling metallic? There's definitely some overlap between the two.
For more subtle sparkle, these three styles knit only a bit of shimmer in leaving most of the yarn unadorned.
• Frosted Crochet Slouch Sock •
• Party Night Arm Warmers •
• Romantic Lace Ribbed Sweater Socks •
But if you're feeling a bit more bold, the overall shimmer-sparkle of these two styles should be perfect
• Metallic Flecked Tights •
• Shimmery Crews •
And if you just can't shine brightly enough then put on your shades for these three:
• Metallic Ribbed Thigh High •
• Metallic Leggings •
• Lurex Stripe Knee High •
But what if you'd like to indulge a bit less ostentatiously? Well, the Indulgences category has all of our pricer (and worth it!) options that you totally deserve after surviving the year. From knee highs in cashmere or silk,
• Ginger Ribbed Knee High •
• Silk Knee High •
To luxurious velvet,
• Polonova Velvet Gloves with Vines •
• Lusso Velvet Print Leggings •
And truly indulgent sheers.
• Floral Damask Crew •
• Mermaid Armor Over the Knee •
• Floating Flowers Midcalf •
You deserve something special, even if it's just drinking in some sock-tastic beauty and adding it to your wishlist! Our year with you has been fabulous and it's our awesome customers that keep us going, so thank you and here's to 2014!

Last minute sock DIY gifts!
Last week I shared styles we carry that have that hand made touch. Now let's look at some things you can make or personalise as gifts! We've got a big ol' DIY section full of ideas, I'll share some favourites from there and then point you other places on the crafty web that has more fabulous sock crafting how-tos!
Customising stuff for friends and family can be fun, either by cutting into some socks to make styles you can't find off-the-shelf, in DIY for Fun & Fashion, or custom-dyeing styles to match the giftee's wardrobe!
You could even combine both with bleach stamping for an ultra-customised style! And if you make a mistake, almost any sock can be salvaged into arm warmers.
There are more fun things to try in the DIY category of the Sock Journal, but let's look elsewhere for more inspiration. Our DIY Sock Style Pinterest Board is full of ideas, from a galaxy bleach tutorial at The Sun Was High to a sweet little teddy bear at The Meta Picture.
images from The Sun Was High and The Meta Picture
I think one of my favourite tutorials from around the web is this glorious draft stopper at Squawkfox.
image from Squawkfox
From catnip pillows from retired socks at Craftster, to DIY grippy socks at Cut-Out-And-Keep, there are tonnes of great DIY ideas for socks floating around the web. If you end up solving a last-minute gift emergency with crafty sock superhero skills, share the results with us!

Hand Made & Altered!
Really, you could argue that anything human hands finish or help machines produce is "handmade." However, when things are knit or sewn by hand, or an artisan's hands take a machine-made blank and turns it into a little work of art, we consider that hand made or altered and we have a category just for that!
Our Hand Made and Altered section is filled with delights that make for lovely gifts (for others or yourself) that have a personal touch. From hand screen-printed or dyed to hand-assembled or knit, these styles are produced in small batches, often just for us!
Silk-screening is hard work! We know from printing our logo t-shirts! But, a t-shirt is pretty simple to print on. The skill and quality of both Nylon Journal and Polonova in printing their pretties continues to impress us.
Nylon Journal's USA made tights are hand-printed in New York city!
• Skeleton Wrap Printed Tights •
• Eye Exam Chart Printed Tights •
• Cyborg Printed Tights •
Polonova's gloves and trouser socks are hand-printed much closer to home for us, right here in Portland, actually! And, just like Nylon Journal, both the knee-high trouser sock blanks and the glove blanks (fingerless or otherwise) are made in the USA, too.
• Polonova Velvet Wrist Warmers •
• Russian Imperial Trouser Socks •
A trippier option is Love Lite Precision Tie Dye, hand-dyed confections of glorious and brilliant tie dye on (mostly) our house brand styles.
• Psuper Psili Tie Dyes •
• Tie Dye Ripple OTK •
• Tie Dyed O Chevrons •
Una, based just North of us in Seattle, are hand-sewn and silk-screened. We also get to pick the colour combos, based on seasonal availability, so a little bit of us is in there too, but just a little, most of it is the wonderful folks of Una!
• Jellies Arm Cozies •
• Gloveometry Arm Cozies •
Texture Clothing's arm warmers are not only hand-made, they're produced with scraps from Texture's clothes-making process, where "nothing is wasted and everything is wanted".
• Knit Mitts •
• Wooly Knit Mitts •
Last, but most certainly not least, are Snappy Garters! Hand-made and lovingly crafted, they're the brand in the Hand Made and Altered category we've had the longest!
• Snappy Star Sock Garters •
• Snappy Big Button Garters •
Of course, because these styles are all hand made or altered in small batches, they run out quickly, so grab what you love while you can! If you miss out, just sign up for email notification and you'll know the same day we do that a fresh batch is in stock and ready to buy!

Socks for December!
Ah December! We've reached the end of the year and our last month of birth month symbol-inspired socks! Holly and poinsettia are inevitable flowers for this month, but turquoise is a surprise as the birthstone! And Sagittarius' arrows point straight to the end of the year!
The distinctive pretty prickliness of holly only really shows up in seasonal socks. This year we have the lovely Cardinals Crew, with bright little birds perched on holly leaves.
Did you know that the poinsettia "flower" is actually a cluster of specialised leaves? And besides the traditional red, they can be orange, pale green, cream, pink, white or marbled! They need to be kept in the dark for a while for the colour change to happen, then need lots of light to get as bright as can be! The Starry Poinsettia Over the Knees are an obvious sock choice,
But the Juneau Fairisle Crews have that same distinctive "flower" worked into their design. Subtle!
Now, turquoise is an easy one! We even have a built-in "Browse by Color" search for it! Well, turquoise and teal. Because actual turquoise stones vary from super pale to vivid and blue to blue-greens, as a colour name it runs the gamut!
Clockwise from top: Space Dyed Terry Baby Booties, O Basics, Keri Dimensional Stripe Crew, Harajuku Arm Warmers, Solid Bows & Cuffs Over the Knees, Seashell Anklet.
Now, what best represents the arrows of Sagittarius (since we only have horses, no centaur archers)? Why, chevrons! The stacked "V" design of a chevron is like a flying arrow, or the feathers (fletching) that balance it!
Of course, our DreaM Stockings have a lovely line of chevron styles:
• A Chevron •
• Chevron Sleeve •
• O Chevrons •
• B Chevrons •
And there are plenty of others to aim at!
• Sheer Pattern Crew •
• Cable Textured Acrylic OTK•
• Stockholm Trouser Socks •
See, December birthdays, even with all the holiday rush going on, we couldn't forget you!

Tips and Tricks: Gift notes
One of the beautiful things about getting somebody a present via the internet is that you can ship it straight to them! Physical mail is fun to get, particularly when it is a present. But there are problems. How do you make sure they wait until the special occasion or holiday to open their gift? How do you leave them a note or hide the price? Well, just read along, we've got some tips for you!
It all starts once you checkout. When you get to the page where you enter your information, pay attention to three places:
Make sure your Email address and Daytime phone are your contact info, not the person you're sending a gift to. These contacts are how you get order and shipping confirmation and how we get a hold of you if there is something wrong with your order. If you put the gift recipient's info there, then they find out what you've got them pretty much as soon as you buy it.
The Delivery Address needs to be the gift recipient (unless you're shipping it to yourself, because you're adding it to other, non-sock things, or whatever). If you put your address there, or forget to change it if you have the site set to remember your address, then it'll go to you, not the person you're trying to surprise.
To ensure no peeking, use the Company name field. It's a sneaky trick that we love. The way shipping labels work, whatever you put in the Company name field goes on the line above the delivery address (this is also great place in general to let the postal worker know to leave the package behind the screen door, or with the super). So, if you want your giftee to slow their roll until an official holiday, write that here. Keep it short and all caps for best effectiveness.
Now, on to the Shipping Options page, which you'll need to pay the most attention to!
If you want to leave a note for the person you're sending socks to, or you don't want them to see what you spent, check the "Gift invoice: do not include prices on invoice" checkbox. This does some magic and hides the prices from the gift recipient and! It opens up a nice space for you to leave a note, if you want to.
But what about that first box? If you type stuff there, where does it show up? Well, that's where you put order notes, the stuff you want us at Sock Dreams to see! If you're saying hello, requesting stickers, or crafting some emoji masterwork, this is where it goes (if you're asking about sizing info, it should be emailed to us, not put in your order notes).
Here's a side-by-side example of where each field goes once it becomes a printed invoice:
So what you type in the "order notes" box goes at the bottom of the invoice and what goes in the gift notes box (which only appears if you check the gift invoice checkbox) shows up at the top of the invoice, so it's the first thing you see (if you don't type anything there, no little Gift Note box will show up).
This means that if you're sending a gift directly to someone, you should probably be aware that your order notes will show up on the invoice! So if you're sending a gift, the recipient won't just see the nice note you've left,
They'll also see anything you put in as an order note too!
So make sure, when you get to the page that has you check over your order before finalising it, that everything is right!
Our free USPS First Class shipping in the United States (and free USPS Priority for orders over $50! check our Shipping FAQ) makes sending sock-tacular gifts easy, just remember to click that Gift Invoice checkbox to add a little personalisation to your present!

No matter which side of the ball, Highlander opponents had to deal with Boyce. The 6-foot-3, 220-pound senior defensive end collected 30 tackles, seven sacks, 10 quarterback hurries and two interceptions, both returned for touchdowns. When he lined up at tight end on offense, he notched six receptions for 83 yards and caught a 2-point conversion. He earns first-team honors on both the all-Marmonte League and coaches all-county large school teams. Boyce, who will next attend Ventura College, cites hanging out with his friends and family as his top hobby. He says USC is his favorite sports team.

Pizza >City Pizzeria
675 B St, San Diego, CA | Directions 9210132.717797 -117.158500
sun-thurs 9am-10pm. fri and sat 9am-11pm
Neighborhoods: Central, Core - Columbia, Core-Columbia, Central San Diego
Best pizza pie in SD – Excellent pizzas and subs. Definately the best in town. Delivery is always hot and fresh, way better than Bronx. Drivers are always kind and courteous. Great pizzas by the slice, huge selection during lunch, 2 slices and a soda for $6, very busy from 11:30 to 1:00 during lunch hour, but always manage to get in and out in a hurry. Always have good coupon prices, if you don't have a coupon just ask for current specials when orderring on the phone, they usually will hook you up with a good deal.
NOT New York Style, and NOT recommended – This is NOT "New York style pizza" by this adoptive New Yorker's definition, and not "one of the best in town" (as reviewed elsewhere here) by ANY true foodie's definition. The "crisp" crust was oversauced and soggy, the toppings franchise-average, the seasoning pedestrian.
I'd prefer franchise fare over this any day, especially since City Pizzeria's prices exceed typical franchise prices by about 15%(?!). The only good thing I have to say about this experience is that the delivery was quick (as it should be, at only 1/4 mile from my East Village high-rise).
Resident East Villagers and visitors, if you want REAL New York style stick with Pizza Station on Park between Broadway & C (in the SmartCorner complex, with entrances both directly on Park and via the City College station Trolley platform) despite its narrow menu and relatively restricted hours of operation. I know, I know...great pizza in a convenience store??? But improbable as it sounds, Pizza Station is the real thing: inexpensive, fast, consistently good-quality ingredients, as close to authentic New York style as I've yet found here on the Left Coast. And who knows what might happen if enough of us NY-pizza lovers beg Pizza Station to stay open later...
YUK YUK YUK! – Don't even think about eating the hot wings they serve here. They taste like they've been boiled with the skin on and then a rather watered down hot sauce is put on them and possibly stuck in a microwave. Limp and soggy. YUK! Certainly not worth the almost $8 price. If you can get the pizza in your mouth right out of the oven, it's okay. Walk a block and then eat your lunch, it generally taste undercooked, underspiced and cold.
Always Quality – The quality of the food was fantastic every time I ordered. The pizza and ingredients were always fresh. They always brought what I asked for, which is rare for a pizza delivery service. I wish I still lived nearby to get their pizza!
New York-style pizza and calzones in the heart of downtown San Diego. – In Short
Catering to city residents, tourists and office workers, this popular pizzeria offers a cozy dining area, friendly service and a choice of traditional and gourmet pizzas served by the slice or whole pie. A variety of salads are available individually or as combos with pizza slices, and the affordable menu also includes hearty sandwiches and calzones. The house specialty is the chicken ranch pie featuring a thin, crispy crust topped with barbecued chicken, mozzarella and ranch dressing.
Great Pizza Great Service – I like to suport local business & this is a good one. Good pizza & sandwiches, too. Nice people, good delivery service & VERY good pizza!! Strongly recommended
Best delivery downtown – Pizza hut and dominos have good coupons and the cheapest prices, but I would always rather support the local businesses than the larger chains. That's why I order from City pizzeria often. It's a bit more expensive, but they deliver right to my door downtown, and are always pleasant, on time, and gracious for the business. The pizza's decent, too.

AVG Free gives the following message: Warning: hidden extension . exe
Some viruses hide themselves by doubling their file extension. For example, the VBS/Iloveyou virus attaches a file, ILOVEYOU.TXT.VBS, to e-mails. The default Windows setting is to hide known extensions, so the file looks like ILOVEYOU.TXT. When you open it you do not open a .TXT text file but instead execute a .VBS script file.
Because of the increased use of this technique we have added detection of the double file extension into AVG Free. Of course there are cases of valid, harmless double extensions, e.g. uninstall.rar.bat, which is part of some installations of the RAR compression utility.

Election Violence in Poetry and Music: From 18th-Century England to Bob Marley
Megan Reif
Over thirty years after Bob Marley and his wife were shot and injured in election violence during the One Love concert in which Marley tried to bring the two main opposition politicians together on stage, many musicians in Jamaica still sing at events like the Red Stripe Reggae Sumfest about Jamaica's lingering problem. Despite its long history of election violence, Jamaica is considered a democracy by most political scientists. Recent election violence in Kenya and Pakistan, including the assassination of Benazir Bhutto, have made people increasingly weary of registration, campaign, and voting processes that are often a matter of life and death. Violence during elections has been characterized as a sign of the failure of democratic transition. Well-known international organizations, artists, and deejays have commissioned anti-election violence songs and concerts, including Common Ground Indonesia (see example below), Artists for Peace in Sierra Leone, the United Nations Development Program in Liberia, the Center for Multiparty Democracy and National Music Copyright Society in Kenya, and Kan Eye in Ghana. These songs are reminiscent of the satiric poetry and songs about election violence by writers in 18th-century England (see example below). It is important to keep in mind that, unfortunately, violence has been a part of democratization in many contexts, and is nothing new. Things might get worse before they get better as more and more countries make the transition to democracy, but, as a collection of satire on England's early election record indicates, violence does not necessarily signal the impending demise of democracy.
'ÄúThe Hustings.'Ä?
Now, hail ye, groans, hurras, and cheers,
So grateful to electors' ears,
Where all is riot and confusion,
Fraud, friendship, scandal, and delusion;
Now houses stormed, and windows broken,
Serve as a pastime and a token
Now greeting, hooting, and abuse,
To each man's party prove of use;
And mud, and stones, and waving hats,
And broken heads, and putrid cats,
Are offerings made to aid the cause
Of order government, and laws.
While blustering, bullying and brow-beating,
A little pummeling, jostling, and cajoling,
And all the jockeyship of polling,
And deep manoevre and duplicity,
Prove all elections fair and free;
But that elections to the mob
Might prove a right good merry job,
And, thus, with open-handed fee,
Meant as a check to bribery,
Each new-made Senator is willing,
By many a sixpence and a shilling,
To compromise for thumps and bruises,
For broken heads and bloody noses;
For damage done by sticks and stones,
For pockets picked, and broken bones.'Ä?
- Anonymous, "Election Day-A Sketch from
Nature'Ä?, England, 1837
(Grego, Joseph. 1886. A History of Parliamentary Elections and Electioneering in the Old Days: Showing the State of Political Parties and Party Warfare at the Hustings and in the House of Commons from the Stuarts to Queen Victoria. London: Chatto and Windus, Picadilly.)
Are not a place for fighting.
Different religion or race
The important thing is we participate
Different vote choices aren't forbidden
But don't force anyone
We choose who we each like
Of course we may…
As long as we choose the peaceful way.'Ä?
-- Radio song to discourage electoral violence, commissioned by Common Ground Indonesia, 2004

Value-Based Care Success Through Quality Analytics And Incentives
As the U.S. healthcare industry continues to evolve and undergo massive structural changes, the outcome that consumers, providers, and payers are looking to see is higher quality care at a lower cost. In order to achieve that, providers are beginning to leverage analytics based on clinical and administrative data to more effectively predict the health outcomes of their patient population, measure health trends, and establish meaningful correlations to help make more informed healthcare decisions. By Keith Blankenship, VP, Technical Solutions, Lumeris

Although long committed to using technology and data to drive high-quality, evidence-based care, TCH, like many organizations, struggled with cumbersome processes for analyzing populations, defining patient cohorts and implementing improvement programs that drove measurable and sustainable improvement.
How Community Care Physicians Can Deliver Effective Population Health Management With Clinical Analytics
Care management has historically focused on the acute space. This focus stems from the availability of inpatient data and the investment made by healthcare systems in analytic resources. Now shared accountability arrangements — such as accountable care organizations (ACOs) — are driving an expansion of scope, which includes a growing need for data regarding the other venues of care along the continuum.

Managing The HIPAA & PCI DSS Compliance Burden
All healthcare organizations in the US are subject to HIPAA and HITECH regulations, and most organizations take credit and debit cards, and are therefore subject to Payment Card Industry or PCI compliance rules as well. Today, we're going to talk about how to develop a security strategy that addresses both of these standards and strengthens your overall security posture in the process.
Protecting Your Patients From Medical Identity Theft Podcast
Medical identity theft is becoming a concern of epidemic proportions for patients, healthcare providers and healthcare plans. Not only is the Federal Government cracking down on fraud, but healthcare providers are striving to implement policies, procedures and technologies that will help them minimize the risk of data exposure.
The Value Of A Perioperative EHR In this podcast, Kermit Randa, senior VP of sales and marketing for Surgical Information Systems provides Health IT Outcomes's editor in chief Ken Congdon with his insights on why specialty EHR platforms, such as perioperative systems, are vital to the health information management efforts of today's hospitals. The podcast addresses key differences between perioperative EHRs and enterprise EHRs and key HIT challenges that require specialization. In response to the question of why are operating room and perioperative services so important to hospitals today, Randa says "The OR, according to HFMA, is about 70% of the revenue of the average hospital, 60% of the margin, and 40% to 60% of the supply costs. Additionally, about half the errors caused in the hospital are done in the operating room. So, when you start to look at what's happening today, the hospitals are in need of radical change."
