I ordered this cover in the tan color. It is a nice, neutral color and works well in my living room. The cover was a little difficult to put on the cushions, as I had to do it alone, for the tight fit it had velcro and took all my strength to pull it together. Two people would make it a whole lot easier. However, the fit is really nice on the cushions. The material is nice and the piping on the edge of the cushions and arms make it look more expensive and almost custom. The info said it would work on a T-cushion sofa and I got it on, but to fit it on the arms the skirt portion was short. My old sofa had a skirt, so I had to cut it off, so it wouldn't show under the new slipcover. It would probably work well on a regular sofa. I had ordered a different slipcover before and my cats claws would catch and pull the material making it look old and messy. This one doesn't do that, so that is a plus. It is an excellent value for the money and I would recommend it. I would have given this a 5, but it doesn't fit the t-cushion sofa as well as I would have wanted.
Absolutely LOVE the sofa & chair covers. They are a gorgeous true red color, sofl to the touch & durable. I have 2 active dogs & the covers stay put & the hair wipes right off. I covered 2 leather couches that the dogs nails were starting to destroy the leather. These covers look better than the leather & are holding up great. Even after washing!!
This sofa cover is very nice. I have tried numerous other brands and styles for this couch and this is by far the best one. It is soft and the color really pops- what an improvement on our old couch pattern. I really like the separate couch cushion cover. It helps the keep a tailored look and the fabric always stays in place. The arms of our couch are not as deep as the cover allows, but a little tucking at the corners made it fit just right. It stays in place with our dogs, cat and two year old playing on it. No constant tucking like the one piece kinds. It was worth the slightly higher price for the two piece style. Also, we have T-arm cushions and it does stretch to accomodate just like the remarks indicate. Great addition!
The site describes the product containing at least some elastic properties -- which is why I purchased it. It also mentions that the sofa cover should fit a couch up to 90-some inches. My couch is nowhere near 90 inches, and the cover (that turned out NOT to have any stretch) didn't come close to fitting. It was too tight length-wise to fit from one arm to the other. I was quite dissapointed too in the fact that the separate cover for three seat cushions was too BIG by almost a whole cushion! The only nice thing I can say is that the color was pretty and the piping on the cushion cover would have looked great if it fit. :( I've already boxed it up to return to Overstock...sad day.
Nice material and color but unfortunately it did not fit my sofa. Make sure your sofa is the exact design as the one pictured in the add or it will NOT fit. Ad states fits most sofas...not so.
This slipcover is larger than I imagined it would be so check out measurements before you buy. I guess my sofa is slightly smaller than average but this cover is huge. I would have better off with one that had stretch. Nice color. I ordered red one.
Slips and moves everywhere. Doesn't fit at all even though our sofa is shaped exactly like the one pictured, and our sofa's measurements are equivalent to what the slip cover is supposed to fit. The red bleeds color. The only positive I can say about it is that the material has a nice feel.
My daughter, 21, put this on by herself. I like the color and it fits perfect. This is a bulky oversized couch so I am thrilled with this cover and the low cost. I bought this to protect my furniture from dust/pets/wear.
The cover was too big and seem to be made for a T-shaped cushion instead of the cushion that was shown in the ad. The piping was only on one side of the cushion cover so flipping the cushions would cause that feature to disappear. All of the tucking and fussing with it made it too much of a nuisance to keep so I returned it.
I ordered the red but it was much more purply-red. Like a cabernet. The material seemed thinnish, but seeing the color I didn;t even bother to take it out of the packing. I returned it.

City defender has Premier ambition
Nyatanga was part of the Derby team which secured promotion via the play-offs in the 2006/07 campaign. The Wales defender, who left the Rams to move to Ashton Gate in the summer, believes the Robins have enough strength in depth to secure at least a play-off place. He said: "We have had setbacks with injuries and illnesses but we've got lots of good players here who can come in and do a good job. "There is real competition for places and it's a long, hard season with a lot of games so it's vital to have a good squad." He added: "The play-offs are a minimum target for us, we're looking to get into the Premier League and we don't want to get ahead of ourselves, but we set high standards."

Born | January 14, 1953 Sioux Falls, South Dakota |
Gail Matthius (born January 14, 1953) is an American actress and voice actress. She was a cast member of NBC's Saturday Night Live during its critical and ratings low point at the time (the 1980-1981 season headed by Jean Doumanian), and co-anchored the Weekend Update segment with Charles Rocket in 1981.
Following her stint on SNL, Matthius appeared in the short-lived British/American sketch show Assaulted Nuts and the syndicated sketch comedy series Laugh Trax (where she revived her Valley Girl Vicki character from SNL). She has done a good deal of voice acting for animated shows in the late 1980s into the 1990s, including Bobby's World (with Laugh Trax co-star Howie Mandel), Tiny Toon Adventures, Animaniacs, The Ren & Stimpy Show and Bump in the Night, often using the voice of her Valley Girl and Roweena characters from Saturday Night Live (in characters such as Martha [who sounds like Roweena] and Shirley the Loon from Tiny Toon Adventures).
She also is a member of the Spolin Players Improv comedy troupe and acts as a drama and theater coach and teacher in Pacific Palisades, CA for various acting studios including Theatre Palisades. She continues to perform as an improv and drama theater actress to this day.

After a lenghtly battle with lymphatic cancer, the late Colombian author and Nobel Laureate, Gabriel García Márquez, has reportedly died at the age of 87. Márquez was recently hosptialized for a multitude of reasons including a respitory and urinary-tract infection as well as dehydration. He was released however, and said to be doing better but was in fragile condition.
Known affectionately as "Gabo" throughout Latin America, he is considered one of the most significant authors of the 20th century. He is survived by his wife Mercedes Barcha Pardo and two sons Rodrigo Garcia Barcha and Gonzalo Garcia Barcha.
The Latin American author got his start as a journalist, and has written many acclaimed non-fiction works, but is best known for his novels, novellas and short stories, which in 1982 won García Márquez the Nobel prize. His works have achieved significant critical acclaim and widespread commercial success. Notably for popularizing a literary style referred to as magic realism, which uses magical elements and events in ordinary and realistic situations.
García Márquez leaves behind a legacy as an important part of the Latin American Boom of Literature. Moreover, he has galvanized Colombian literature in an unprecedented way."Whether in fiction or nonfiction, in the epic novel or the concentrated story, García Márquez is now recognized in the words of Carlos Fuentes as 'the most popular and perhaps the best writer in Spanish since Cervantes.'"

OTC students heading to SkillsUSA nationals
OTC students heading to SkillsUSA nationals
Monday, June 10, 2013
College Director of Communications
417.447.2655 firstname.lastname@example.com Koehler
Coordinator of Media Relations (417) 447-2666 firstname.lastname@example.com Byrd would like to be a chef who teaches as well as cooks for people so they can learn and appreciate the healthy side of food.
"My goal is community outreach and educating people," the 23-year-old OTC culinary arts student said.
But first, Byrd will pack her knives and lead a contingent of 24 OTC students to the national SkillsUSA competition June 24-28 in Kansas City.
SkillsUSA is a national nonprofit organization serving teachers, high school and college students who are preparing for careers in trade, technical and skilled service occupations, including health occupation. It was formerly known as VICA (Vocational Industrial Clubs of America).
Students compete in several categories that include both tests of hands-on skills and a written test.
"The leadership skills students learn will be invaluable in the world of work," said Cindy Phillips, lead SkillsUSA advisor at OTC.
For Byrd, she will be required to prepare a soup, salad and entrée from yet-to-be disclosed food products.
For the past few weeks, she has been practicing in the OTC culinary arts kitchens honing her knife skills and cooking abilities by breaking down proteins, making soups and pasta dishes.
Byrd won the state competition several weeks ago. It was the first time she entered the event.
"I am practicing whatever I think I will need to do my work. You won't know until you get there what you will have to work with," she said. "I am awesome with vegetables."
Chef Paul Trout of OTC's culinary arts staff said Byrd wants to take what she is learning at OTC and help others.
"She has a natural talent in the kitchen. She has a beautiful outlook on life and will succeed in any life path," he said.
Byrd, who moved to Springfield when she was six, said her research has brought her to the conclusion that people need to know more about food and where it comes from.
Byrd is also studying hospitality management and knows opening a restaurant is a huge undertaking. She also wants to study massage therapy and get her yoga certificate to do life coaching.
"My food puts health first," she said.
