If I had seen a picture of what the rug really looks like, I wouldn't have bought it. Both the pattern and the colors on the rug are much duller than they appear in the photo. It looks MUCH cheaper than I expected it to based on the photo. Even rolled up, upon delivery, I could tell instantly--just from the top color sticking out/quality of the material--that it would look nothing like the image.
When I first saw this rug online I fell in love. I couldn't wait for it to arrive and when it did I immediately realized something was off. I had requested for it to be shipped to my office and the moment I saw it, it did not look like that rug I had ordered. Why was there brown and purple on my rug that was supposed to be teal and grey??? I went to the website and realized there were reviews that mirrored my feeling of the rug to a T. Frustrated, I took it home and laid it out to show my boyfriend. Suddenly, It looked just like the rug I had ordered. I felt silly. The lighting in my office is very bright but at home it's much less harsh and more warm. In my living room the rug looks wonderful. It IS exactly what I wanted. Before purchasing this MAKE SURE you take lighting into consideration.
I saw this rug in other Designer Showroom sites and fell in love, just not with the price! I happened to see a version of this rug in person and I knew it was exactly what I needed! I just couldn't believe how reasonable the price was at Overstock! It is a thin, low cut, synthetic blend rug, but I am mainly interested in the peacock blue color and time-worn appearance of an old-Persian Rug. I knew it was one of those pieces that I would probably tire of in a few seasons so I was reluctant to make a big investment. What a great find. I love the peacock blue and the pale grey accents that give the appearance of a Persian rug. Exactly as pictured. Love it!
I read some of the other reviews and I think I see what the complaints may have been about. I think because it's hooked a little bigger than expected, it gives the rug a little bit of a sheen which detracts from looking "vintage," but overall, it's pretty much as the picture represents. I purchased for the teal color to add a punch to the room. That's what it did. It's not SUPER high quality, and it's a little stiff out of the packaging instead of having that soft, flexible feel, but I like it. Don't get it for your mansion living room. It's a shabby feel, but not authentic shabby.
I'm planning on using this rug in my up dated living room. Beautiful color but if you are looking for a plush rug, it's not or you. It will be the perfect pop of color!
This rug is just what I expected as far as style and color. It's not the best quality in the world, but I didn't expect it to be considering the price, but it suits my purposes just fine. Another reviewer said there was purple in it, but I don't know what kind of lighting she was using that she would say that. I love the over-dyed look of the rug, which was my main purpose in purchasing it. It looks really nice in my living room. Shipping was super fast. I ordered it one day, and it was delivered the next day, barely 24 hrs. after ordering.
In my opinion this rug was just ok- I imagine it's all in what you put with it- however, there was nothing super special about it.. The undertone of colors are dark grey and "purple"- yes I said purple- there are flecks of purple in it that you can clearly see. It looks much better from a distance- it is a synthetic rug and when your right on top of it- it looks a bit on the cheap side. Fortunately I have it in my mudroom- it does hide dirt very well and it hasn't shed at all. For the overall look and quality, I wouldn't pay this price for it. If it was half the price I'd say go for it.
This rug is not a thick luxurious rug, however, I wanted it for my foyer where I have dogs (with muddy feet) coming in and out. I need something that was easy to care for and this would be it. The colors in my foyer are rather muted so I needed something that would really give it a pop of color and this rug is it. The color is gorgeous. It does look like an older rug as your information states. It kind of has a worn look in spots...not worn with holes or anything, but a little of the color is worn. Works great for me.
My daughter and I had been searching for a rug to add a pop of color and some bohemian style to her first "big city girl" (Chicago) apartment and this rug completely fits the bill! We were pleasantly surprised because a few of the reviews almost scared us off. We are picky about quality, price, and style -- this rug meets all criteria! If you're expecting it to look exactly like a $XXXX overdyed antique rug you will be disappointed. However it does a very good job of mimicking the look and for such a reasonable price. The colors are gorgeous and the pattern subtle -- very chic. We are thrilled with this purchase and think you will be too !
I love the color. It was just like the picture and matches my wall color perfectly. Easy care.

Injured Barry Island soldier tells fundraiser how Welsh Guards Afghanistan Appeal has helped
4:40pm Friday 7th December 2012 in News
SINGER and presenter Mark Evans' charity single Tell My Father has raised more than £30,000 for The Welsh Guards Afghanistan Appeal fund – and he recently heard first-hand from a former Barry Island soldier who was seriously injured in Afghanistan just how the appeal is helping.
Mark released the fundraising double single with the Band of the Welsh Guards in March, with support track Men of Harlech.
The single was made with the generous support of many artists and technicians, all of whom gave their time and talents for free in order to raise funds for the Appeal Fund, and Tell My Father reached number 1 in the Singles and Military charts.
Dale Leach from Barry Island, pictured with Mark, joined the Welsh guards in 2004, and in June 2009 his jackal was hit by an IED. He was sent home with serious injuries and through the support of the Welsh Guards Afghanistan Appeal, he has rebuilt his life.
Mark said: "Dale told me from his first hand experience about how the monies raised have helped him and others to rebuild their lives and support their families.
"What people don't realise is that the appeal helps with converting homes and running courses to rebuild soldiers' lives."
Mark has successfully raised more than £30,000 to date for the fund, and performed at the recent Welsh Guards homecoming parade in Cardiff. He is currently working on his new album, which will be out next year.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill -- On Tuesday, the Illinois House of Representatives passed a law that allows illegal immigrants to acquire a license with the proper paperwork.
After a lengthy discussion during the last day of the lame duck session at the state Capitol, the full House voted in favor of the bill 65 to 46.
The new law permits three-year driver's licenses for immigrants who can prove they've lived in the state's for more than one year and have proper identification.
According to the Highway Safety Coalition, there are about 250,000 illegal immigrants in Illinois who are driving without licenses or insurance.
The group says that has resulted in millions of dollars in insurance claims.
Still, opponents like State Representative Don Moffitt, say the bill isn't perfect.
"The Illinois Police Chief Association remained opposed, and they had some concerns.," said Rep. Moffitt, (R), of the 74th District. "One of those was that the person applying for a driver's license really was that person, so they wanted fingerprinting. I think that was a reasonable request."
Governor Pat Quinn said in a statement that he was pleased with the passing of the measure.
"I want to commend members of the Illinois House for their bipartisan passage of legislation that will help ensure every Illinois motorist is properly licensed and empower more immigrants to become stronger contributors to our economy," said Quinn.
Governor Quinn concluded his statement by saying that he was looking forward to signing the bill.
The law will go into effect ten months after Governor Quinn signs it.

We received our first fine furniture order from Alaska last week and that makes the 50th state we will have delivered furniture to. Once the bedroom set arrives safely, we'll have to have celebrate this milestone with a little party.
It's actually a pretty exciting accomplishment for a small company like Vermont Woods Studios Furniture.
It turns out that packaging and safely shipping your fine furniture is the most challenging part of our business and we're always working to make the system work better, faster, cheaper and stress-free.
Our preferred method of shipping fine furniture is to blanket wrap it and send it "white glove delivery" with the world's number one, award-winning furniture shipper: Clark and Reid. They are the best. When you receive your furniture from C&R, they carefully bring it into your home, set it up wherever you like, help you inspect it for any shipping damage and remove the wrapping. You do nothing but smile.
However Clark and Reid is not the fastest or the cheapest. So when customer's are in a hurry and need to save money, we can sometimes (depending on size) package and ship their furniture via common carrier or even FedEx to get it there faster and cheaper. We call it DIY delivery and it has just recently been made possible with advances in packaging technology.
If your order is eligible for DIY packaging and shippping, we'll let you know. As you can see, it's not your typical UPS delivery. It took 4 of us to wrestle this filing cabinet out of the box.
I always try to emphasize to our customers that unpackaging and moving solid wood furniture is not easy. It's heavy (often >100#) and if it has doors or drawers, you want to be especially careful not to damage or unbalance them. If you're a "handyman" DIY can save you money and time but for most customers I wholeheartedly recommend the luxury and peace of mind that white glove delivery brings.

I was talking about the ACRL-OR/WA Fall Conference, which was hosted this year by ACRL-OR at the Menucha Retreat in the Columbia Gorge, and about which I went on in this post.
(View from Menucha)
Jim Holmes from Reed College did an amazing job running technology at the conference – and captured all of the amazing women noted above while he was doing so. The results are available now. If you weren't able to join us (or even if you were) –
Barbara Fister gave an inspiring and thoughtful opening keynote. Ignore the fangirl giving the introduction.
Rachel Bridgewater put together a two hour program called Fair Use as Advocacy Laboratory, integrating a remote talk from Brandon Butler at ARL (who was also fantastic)
And Char Booth wrapped up the conference with a closing keynote that built on and wrapped around the themes of the previous two programs. It was like magic.
Thanks again to everyone who put so much work into this conference, which means every single member of the ACRL-OR Board. Interested in being a part of the next one? ACRL-OR elections will be happening in the next few months. Watch the ACRL-OR blog for the announcement.

Marvel Preemptively Cancels Yet Another Miniseries
Okay, this is starting to get depressing: Marvel Comics have cancelled Destroyers, which was meant to be a five-issue miniseries by Fred Van Lente and Kyle Hotz that starred The Thing, She-Hulk, Beast and, most importantly, Devil Dinosaur. Originally announced in August and not yet solicited, the series will not be coming out at all.
Van Lente revealed the series' premature cancellation on Twitter, where he also added that artist Hotz had already drawn the first two issues of Destroyers.
Destroyers is the latest in a series of cancellations Marvel's been doing across their line, including ongoings (Iron Man 2.0), miniseries that were later announced as ongoings (Alpha Flight), miniseries that were part of the way through publication (All-Winners Squad: Band of Heroes) and miniseries that had yet to be published (Victor Von Doom).
...so what's going on over at Marvel? All these wanton cancellations have me worried about the future of the publisher.
DC Cancels R.E.B.E.L.S. Volume 5 TPB
Those of you who trade-waited on R.E.B.E.L.S. by Tony Bedard and Claude St. Aubin should probably start hunting for the single issues (they can't be that hard to find), as DC Comics have cancelled their plans to collect the fifth volume of stories in the recently cancelled series.
At least, y'know, they came out in some form.
Hey, At Least The Twelve is Coming Back
Several weeks ago there were rumblings about The Twelve, the long-incomplete 12-issue Marvel maxiseries by J. Michael Straczynski and Chris Weston, finally making its return to complete the series after a three-year delay following Issue #8.
Now Marvel has made it official, announcing the release schedule for the series:
- January 2012: The Twelve Volume 1 trade paperback (collecting #1-6)
- February 2012: The Twelve: Marvel Must Have #1 (collecting #7-8), The Twelve #9 and #10
- March 2012: The Twelve #11
- April 2012: The Twelve #12
So, look forward to that, I guess.

Wivenhoe v Clacton derby is already a major doubt
7:00am Friday 7th February 2014 in Sport By Matt Plummer
WIVENHOE TOWN'S eagerly-awaited derby at home to FC CLACTON is already a "major doubt", according to Dragons boss Mo Osman.
The Maple Tree Cars Stadium is still water-logged from the recent heavy rainfall.
And with more due yesterday and today, there is only a slim chance tomorrow's contest will go ahead.
Wivenhoe, who have been using a pump to remove surface water from the pitch, will try their hardest to get the surface in a playable condition.
But a pitch inspection will take place later today, probably early evening, and the indications do not look good.
"Unfortunately, the match is in major doubt," said Osman.
"We'll do everything we can but there's already a lot of standing water on the pitch - and that's before more rain today."

Habla espanol?
The Metropolitan Transportation Authority issued a Spanish-language advertising campaign on MetroCards.
250,000 MetroCards were purchased by the immigration law firm Youman, Madeo & Fasano LLP to promote their law firm and a television show the firm produces called Hablando De Inmigracion, which means talking about immigration.
This will be the first time a MetroCard advertisement will be in a language other than English since the MTA started using advertisements on the back of MetroCards in 1995. The MTA began selling space on the card's front face in 2012. MetroCard advertisements range between 25 and 45 cents per card with a minimum print run of 250,000 cards.
"We're very pleased by the continuing high level of interest that advertisers are showing toward the MetroCard as a medium for promotions," MTA spokesman Paul Fleuranges said in a news release. "This confirms that our decision to relaunch the MetroCard advertising program was the right move. Advertisers can continue to leverage the MetroCard as a vehicle to communicate to our diverse customer base."

Mark Kern: Have MMOs Become Too Easy?
Source Author
Mark Kern
Source Site
Where did MMOs go wrong? A reflection on the rush to serve casual players
Red 5 CEO Mark Kern is the sort of person you should really listen to when it comes to MMO design. Not only is he currently leading one of the biggest MMOs on the horizon, Firefall, but he was also part of the original World of Warcraft team.
In this opinion piece on MMO specialist site MMORPG.com, Kern traces the historical line to the moments when the MMORPG genre started to lose its way. Interestingly, he ends up partially blaming himself.
World of Warcraft was one of the original catalysts of the current casual-crazy genre. Warcraft was far from a casual MMO when it launched, we'd consider it quite hardcore by today's standards, but it was the beginning of a march toward being friendlier to many different types of play styles.
There's some great points made here, but given that tens of millions of players have enjoyed World of Warcraft over the past decade it's hard to fully agree. I'm a former WoW player, and there's an interesting phenomenon that's easy to notice when speaking with MMO players: everyone seems to know the moment when the genre went soft.
Not surprisingly, it usually corresponds with their own play time. You're not likely to hear somebody say, "I stopped playing in 2006, but the game was great until 2010." You're far more likely to hear, "I stopped playing in 2006 because the game just wasn't fun anymore. They took out all the challenge."
I find it hard to criticize the MMO genre when the changes that have been made have allowed for millions more people to enjoy their style of gameplay. Even if the difficulty crash has personally alienated a vocal minority of players like me.
That said, I would love to see more variety within MMOs. It would be great to see the return of semi-hardcore games to complement the EVE Online's and the World of Warcraft's that have bound the genre to farthest ends of the difficulty spectrum.

02/09/2014 The number of people in financial difficulty due to pay day loans has risen by 42% in the last 6 months, according to StepChange debt charity. The charity dealt with 43,716 people in financial difficulty due to payday loans and £72,210,340 worth of debt in the first 6 months of 2014, up from 30,762 people and £51,227,222 worth of debt from the same period last year. These figures demonstrate an increase in the number of people getting into difficulty due to pay day loans. The charity is now calling for the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to take further action to ensure better protections for financially vulnerable consumers. StepChange debt charity chief..

01/09/2014 Pensioners in Britain are now more likely to go bankrupt than they were at the height of the recession, even though overall bankruptcy figures have gone down. Due to rising costs and low incomes, accountancy firm Moore Stephens have found that 5,672 pensioners went bankrupt in 2013, up from 4,727 at the height of the recession. There has been a 25% fall in the overall number of personal insolvencies, from 134,053 to 100,389, over the same period. This means pensioners now make up 6% of all personal insolvencies, up from 3.6% in 2009. As well as facing rising costs on food, energy bills, fuel and healthcare, pensioners have been hit with the Bank of England base..

A study from Scottish Widows has revealed that more than three-quarters of families in the UK with children under 16 are without income protection, up from 69 per cent in 2013. This further highlights the increasing protection gap, and is based on the results of a major survey with more than 5,000 respondents. On top of this, over half of those who have children admitted that their savings would last no longer than a couple of months if they were unable to work. Nearly half of those with children under 16 are reliant on two incomes, while 14 per cent admitted that parents or grandparents are dependent on their income. The majority of protection customers, some 75 per cent of..

The Royal Bank of Scotland and NatWest are facing a large fine, after the City regulator, the Financial Conduct Authority, conducted a review that revealed "serious failings" in the advice being administered to mortgage customers. The fine, which is just under £14.5m, will be issued to RBS after it was revealed that only two out of 164 mortgage sales analysed met the required standards. The fine will be issued to both RBS and NatWest. The FCA has said that the firms failed to ensure that the advice given to mortgage customers was appropriate, after conducting two separate reviews in 2012, both of which showed that more than half of the cases analysed were not suitable. In..

The British Bankers Association has revealed that the number of mortgage approvals fell in July from the previous month, as the availability of cheap lending for new homes was reduced. In total, there were 42,800 mortgage approvals in July, while June figures stood at 43,200. Despite this though, volumes were still up by 12 per cent in July, when compared to the same month last year. The Bank of England (BoE) introduced a cap on the number of high loan-to-value mortgages that are available at the end of June in order to start 'cooling' the housing market, meaning July was the first month that in which the effects of this could be seen. New legislation introduced in the..

22/08/2014 EDF Energy has been told to pay £3m to a Citizens Advice scheme for the benefit of "vulnerable customers", after an investigation by Ofgem found the company had poorly managed a number of complaints. Ofgem found that after a new IT system was introduced in 2011, complaints increased by 30%. This was because the system did not give the company the ability to properly receive, record and process customer complaints. Beatrice Bigois, managing director of customers at EDF said: "Despite our best efforts and extensive planning to manage this transition in 2011 without impacting our customers, we recognise that for a period of time the service to our customers was not up..

21/08/2014 A cap on pension charges could hand savers a £1bn boost, according to one of the UK's largest pension providers. In the recent pension reforms, the government announced that management charges on workplace pension schemes would be capped at 0.75% a year. These caps are set to take effect from April 2015, and it was originally claimed the changes would be worth £200m to savers. However, the amount of money that pension customers may actually save could be "monumentally higher", according to estimates released by pension provider Royal London. Phil Loney, chief executive of Royal London said: "We estimate the total reduction in long-term insurer income may..

20/08/2014 The Bank of England has confirmed that interest rates will remain at the benchmark low of 0.5% for the remainder of 2014. There has been speculation in recent months that interest rate rises would be enforced as the economy continues to recover, however a fall in inflation has eased any pressure on the Bank to increase their rates in the near future. Inflation, as measured by the consumer prices index (CPI) fell to 1.6% in July, down from 1.9% the month before. Analysts had expected inflation to fall in July, but they only expected it to fall as low as 1.8%, meaning that increases in the cost of living had slowed down faster than expected. The reduction in inflation..

19/08/2014 Complaints from payday loan customers about credit broking services have doubled over the last 12 months, according to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS). Credit broking websites are essentially middlemen between the payday loan company and the customer, and they are designed to help people find a loan that suits their needs. However, these companies charge upfront broking or membership fees for their services, which can be as high as £100. The FOS said that in many cases, the customer was actually unaware that they were dealing with a 'middleman', and they actually thought the company was a payday loan provider. Since January 2014 alone, over 10,000 people..

18/08/2014 The UK economy performed better than expected in the second quarter of 2014, as it expanded by 3.2% in comparison with the same period last year. It was originally estimated that the economy would only grow by 3.1%, but figures released by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) confirmed that the UK economy had its best year since its 2008 peak. Most sectors performed positively in comparison to last year too, including the construction sector which appeared to perform even better than expected as it grew by 4.8% year-on-year. The services sector also performed particularly well, which is especially important as this sector accounts for 78% of the UK economy. In..

15/08/2014 Mortgage rates "will rise at some stage" and borrowers should be planning their finances for this eventuality, according to the Council of Mortgage Lenders (CML). During the second quarter of the year, home repossessions fell to the lowest level since quarterly records began in 2008. However, those who still have money left to repay on their mortgage should be careful they don't fall into trouble when the Bank of England inevitably increases interest rates. Mortgage rates are usually linked to the Bank of England's base interest rate, which has been set at a benchmark low of 0.5% in recent years, meaning mortgage repayments have generally been more affordable...

14/08/2014 The income tax threshold would be increased to £12,500 during the next Parliament if Liberal Democrats were to come into power. The 'income tax threshold' is the amount of money a person needs to earn within a tax-year before they have to start paying income tax. At the moment, the income tax threshold stands at £10,000, and it will rise to £10,500 in the next tax year. This means that the Liberal Democrat proposals would give workers an extra £2,000 of tax free income, and this would be worth around £400 a year to the basic rate taxpayer. Additionally, the Liberal Democrats said that once these plans were in place, they would move on to National Insurance..

13/08/2014 The youth unemployment problem in the UK will not be solved by an economic recovery, the Institute for Public Policy (IPPR) has warned in a report. The report said that although youth unemployment has been falling steadily, there are still around 868,000 unemployed 16 to 24 year-olds in the UK. The IPPR said that one of the biggest problems is a 'mismatch' between what these youths are being trained to do and what jobs are actually available. For example, the report claimed that 94,000 16-24 year-olds have a health and beauty qualification despite there only being 18,000 jobs of this nature. In contrast, there are only 123,000 youths trained for the construction and..

12/08/2014 The average value of a purchase with a credit or debit card has dropped recently, suggesting that card payments are becoming an even bigger part of customer shopping habits. The average transaction for credit and debit cards fell by £1.40 over the last 12 months, and it now stands at £47.51. These figures suggest that more people are using cards for regular everyday spending, rather than just for big purchases. The research was conducted by the UK Cards Association, and they said that factors for the drop in value included supermarket price wars, budget retailers and the use of contactless cards. One of the other key drivers has been the rise of internet shopping...

11/08/2014 Energy prices could actually be getting pushed up by aggressive regulation of the market, according to a letter that has been sent to the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA). The letter which was written by a group of former energy regulators, claimed that rising energy costs and a lack of competition could be a result of over-regulation. The group who made these claims include Stephen Littlechild (former head of electricity regulation), Sir Callum McCarthy (former head of Ofgem) and Claire Spottiswoode (former head of gas regulation). However, this group believes that regulation has been too aggressive since 2008, and interventions on the energy market have..

08/08/2014 Over a third of pensioners will take cash out of their pension fund when new rules come into effect in April 2015, according to H M Revenue and Customs. That will mean an estimated 130,000 people will take advantage of the changes to the pension system, which were announced by chancellor George Osborne in his 2014 Budget speech. These changes mean that those aged 55 or over have more flexibility over what they do with their pension funds. The added flexibility means that people are no longer forced to trade their pension fund in for an annuity – which is a pre-set income for life. Instead, people have been told that they can do whatever they like with their..

07/08/2014 Barclays Bank is set to close 11 of their cash ISAs (Individual Savings Accounts), meaning 2.3 million customers will be moved onto a simplified product range. The simplification of their ISA range means that 1.6 million savers will be put on a worse interest rate than before, although 740,000 will be put on the same or a better rate. Lee Chiswell, head of savings at Barclays Bank defended the move saying it will "make it easier" for customers to understand the products on offer. He continued by stating: "We are writing to all impacted customers to let them know how these changes will affect them, and we have worked with our colleagues to ensure they can support..

06/08/2014 Pension reforms introduced by George Osborne in the 2014 Budget speech have already started to have a positive effect, according to a report by pension expert LCP. LCP said the future of the pensions market looks positive. The extra flexibility that is expected to be introduced as part of the pension reform makes the product more attractive to savers. Until recently, the majority of people in a 'defined contribution' pension scheme had to trade it in for an annuity, which is a pre-set, guaranteed income for life. However, it was argued that many annuities were poor value for money, so it was unfair for a person to be forced to buy one with their savings. As of 6th..

05/08/2014 HSBC are to repay £218m of interest charges to some of their UK loan customers who received insufficient paperwork. Under the Consumer Credit Act, lenders are required to use a customers annual statement to provide information about the option of making overpayments on a loan. However, the bank has admitted that they only provided the information when customers first took out the loan and the information had been left out of annual statements. It is for this reason that they have set aside £218m to pay back customers who were not provided with the correct information. The mistake was realised during the banks internal review, and despite admitting to making the..

The survey on attitudes to home improvement, which was conducted by DIY retail group Kingfisher, revealed that 31% of European homeowners intended to introduce measures to cut their energy bills. This means that energy efficiency is now the biggest priority among European households, which is particularly surprising, as it was one of the lowest priorities in 2012 when only 4% of homeowners held the same attitude. Sir Ian Cheshire, chief executive at Kingfisher said "There is a staggering increase in the number of people who..

A massive fire killed 35 horses at a Walker County horse farm in northwest Georgia, the Georgia Fire Marshal confirmed Friday. The fire started about 8:30 p.m. Thursday at Rossville's Happy Valley Farms at 289 Hutcheson Road. Raging flames destroyed two stables and a storage building on the property.Trainer Danny Jenner says he rushed to the fire, but there was no time to reach the fire extinguishers or fire hoses in the buildings. He says he and another trainer managed to get only one horse out."It's very hard to get a horse out of a fire," Jenner said.Fire investigators say the blaze spread too quickly and because of the thick, dark smoke, the trainer could not save any others.It took nearly 40 firefighters to finally knock down the fire.No people were injured in the fire.The horses killed included four studs and several other state and world champion show horses. Some were valued as much as $250,000 each. "Our estimation is that this loss is somewhere around $6 million," said Georgia Insurance Commission Ralph Hudgens. Officials said the barns were insured for $1.2 million. The horses were reportedly not insured.Jenner says the owner, Marian "Bit" Hutcheson, is trying to find solace in her new brood of yearlings and 2-year-olds."As far as the farm goes, there are more babies coming along and that progression will not stop," Jenner said. "We're just all devastated and hopefully Miss Hutcheson will be out and about soon."State fire officials have not confirmed what sparked the fire. ATF agents are taking part in the investigation. They say so far, it does not appear to be arson. It could be a number of days before the cause is determined, they said.Rossville is about 115 miles northwest of Atlanta, near the Tennessee border.
Firefighters are calling a man a hero after he helped save a family from a burning home in DeKalb County.

The Goshen area is under a winter weather advisory for Tuesday.
According to the National Weather Service forecast, a massive storm that dumped up to 15 inches of snow in Oklahoma, will deposit some of its remaining moisture on Goshen Tuesday through Wednesday. How much of that moisture will fall as snow depends on the air temperature when the storm front reaches Goshen, according to the NWS. However, the NWS is forecasting one to two inches of snow will fall Tuesday afternoon and another inch or two is expected to fall Tuesday night. Snow showers will continue through Wednesday, according to the NWS forecasts.
The forecasts also predict ice may accumulate up to a 10th of an inch.
"It's going to be pretty nasty out there too, because you are going to have winds out of the east up to 30 mph," said Mark Steinwedel of the NWS office in North Webster.
Steinwedel said the updated forecast put out Monday afternoon predicts the storm will begin to drop moisture on the Goshen area between 10 and 11 a.m. The forecast states that there will be a mix of snow, sleet and rain.

Baltimore Montessori Public Charter School
Baltimore, MD 21202
About This School
Charter schools are public schools, but differ from traditional public schools in that they are independent and are operated by educators, parents, community leaders, educational entrepreneurs, or others. Funding for charter schools is based on designated local or state educational organizations. Those organizations are responsible for monitoring and assessing the quality and effectiveness of education, but permit the schools to operate outside of the traditional public school education system. See Baltimore Montessori Public Charter School's test results to learn more about school performance.

Baltimore Montessori Public Charter School Reviews
I think this is a great school if you want to have a child who does not lose his or her creative, unique learning style and a love for learning. If you want a child that still has a compassion for his fellow man and be a part of making the world better; and not just fit in a cook cutter education system we have in most schools. I wish this school was around when my oldest was in school. This school knows how kids grow and they do their best to make the best environment for all kinds of learners.
