Unlimited Visibility Design (UVLD) is pleased to announce that Cameron Yeary is moving to New York City. Yeary, formerly located in Dallas, is one of UVLD's lighting designers and programmers, with outstanding skills in the areas of media design, manipulation, and execution. His relocation makes him more accessible to the New York City production community and enhances the convergence capabilities of UVLD's New York office.
"We're thrilled that Cameron has come to join us in the Big Apple," says lighting designer and UVLD founding partner Gregory Cohen. "As more productions explore the multimedia aspects of a show and look to us to be a part of their team, his expertise in console programming and 3D rendering, his grasp of new technologies, and his outstanding design skills make him a valuable resource to UVLD's clients."
Yeary, the founder of Portal Design Services, a Dallas-based pre-visualization services provider, has been working with UVLD on an array of projects since 2002. "I'm very excited about being based in New York where I hope to expand my portfolio to include additional work in live TV, theatr,e and architectural entertainment," he says.
"Certainly while we position ourselves as a company with both a national and global presence, I feel we are very much a New York firm," adds Cohen. "It is thrilling to have the additional resources here that Cameron brings. We will be able to serve our clients better, both during the production process but during pre-production as well; site-surveys, meetings, and pitches are always easier to schedule when they don't involve the inevitable La Guardia gate delay."

Achieving success as a manager depends on the ability to maximize the productivity of your team.
Many managers struggle to fully realize the performance potential of the people working for them. The ability to maximize employee performance through effective coaching is often what separates great leaders from those who are merely average.
The objective of this session is to develop your awareness and skills as a capable coach and mentor to others.
In this session you'll learn
- Quickly build credibility with direct reports so they are open and receptive to performance feedback.
- Set goals that inspire direct reports to achieve high levels of performance
- Accurately evaluate performance issues and deliver effective feedback that builds on employee strengths while managing potential weaknesses
- Create a high performance work environment that aligns team members around common strategic goals
To accomplish these learning objectives, the presenters will relay their own broad experiences, utilize web and DVD media, and most importantly, we will learn from each other.
This course is designed both for people currently managing direct reports as well as for individual contributors who are interested in moving into management positions. The techniques taught in this course will mix findings based on empirical research on employee performance with best practices drawn from Fortune 1000 companies. Students will learn through the use of hands-on, experiential exercises and leverage examples taken from their current job and/or school environment.

The 2013 Leading Vendors
to the Top 1000 E-Retailers
Special Digital Edition
Research Guide
A treasure trove of information for online retailers searching for e-commerce technology and services.
There are more than 2,000 vendors of e-commerce technology and services, and they play an indispensible role in the online retail market. They are continually reinventing e-commerce as they expand their product and service lines with innovations that take e-retailing to the next level of performance. In addition, hundreds of new solution providers are emerging with all new products geared to brand new segments of the e-commerce business—from mobile commerce to social media marketing and commerce.
Why is there such a proliferation of e-commerce solutions? The simple answer is that web merchants—driven by a hyper-competitive market—are demanding new and better tools for their e-retail businesses. They are sorting through this growing maize of vendors all the time as they seek to upgrade their retail web sites with the latest technology. In 2012, e-retailers spent about $3 billion on e-commerce technology, according to Gartner Inc., and a recent Internet Retailer survey finds that 68.5% of e-retailers plan to increase their spending on e-commerce applications and services in 2013.

2.15/5 rDev +13.8%
Half-litre bottle: best before 11 Sep 2013, poured @ home into three stemmed Pilsner glasses on a random tasting evening on 23 Nov 2012.
Gluten free: this looked your typical pale pilsner but has a sweet aroma and taste. Normal small white head that disappears before it arrives and as you'd expect a golden, clean apperance.
struggled to drink my third of the bottle to be honest: just too sweet and tasteless. Arty, farty front label gave the brew an interesting packaging, but the product was toothless as well as flavourless.

1.63/5 rDev -13.8%
Glutenfree and according to the label it contains syrup, malt-aroma, beer-aroma.
A: Pours pale golden with some small bubbles. The white head is creamy but light, medium-tall. Poor lacings.
S: Very sweet, honey-like - no malt, something else. Citric notes and bitter hops. It doesn't smell like a German Pilsener.
T: Very sweet! Honey and hard candy, no malt. It's like they packed suger in this one. Some bitter hops, but this isn't pleasant.
M: Aftertaste is not long, but too long, it's very sweet. Body is medium while carbonation is flat.
O: As a German Pilsener this is a disaster, but if you are allergic to gluten this might be a good choice, but I'm grateful I can choose beers with gluten.

(Po River Cruise)
Romantics, connoisseurs of food and wine, and lovers of art and architecture may rejoice on this delightful river cruise, celebrating the glories of Italy with the Po River and Venice Lagoon as your highway. Renaissance palazzi float above the lagoon, miragelike. Gondoliers pole past, singing. You could be in only one place in the world: Venice. But Venice is not the only storied city in the region. Ravenna hosts ravishing Byzantine mosaics. Bologna, Verona, and Padua, bequeathed beautiful historic city centers by centuries of trade, are still dynamic places to visit. Unpack, pour a glass of prosecco, and prepare to explore Northern Italy from the comfort of a luxurious river cruise ship.
Cruise Departure Dates:
2014: every Sunday from Apr 6 - Nov 9
Take a private water taxi for an airport transfer.
Set out on an exploratory adventure into the world of Venetian glass creation. Begin by departing your hotel with your English-speaking guide and board a private taxi boat. This aquatic taxi will glide across the Venetian Lagoon towards the two enchanting islands of Murano and Burano. For hundreds of years the glass factory on Murano has been producing some of the world's greatest and most coveted glass creations. During this exclusive tour of the factory, you'll get an opportunity to marvel at the traditional glass-blowing techniques used in this very factory for centuries. After the demonstration, you'll have an opportunity to purchase these freshly blown glass objects if you'd like (at your own expense). From Murano you'll again board your water taxi and travel to the magnificent island of Burano featuring various colorful painted houses and villas. Burano is renowned throughout Europe for its marvelous lace production, which you'll experience during your visit to the Lace Factory. You'll have an opportunity before returning back to the Venetian mainland to stroll along the narrow streets and barter with the merchants for that special souvenir of your visit to these truly inspirational Venetian islands.
Take a private water taxi for a port transfer.
Welcome aboard!Take some time to get settled in to your stateroom, and to explore the length of your ship. Your cruise experience begins this evening with your first dinner on board; perhaps an ideal time to meet some of your fellow cruisemates.
Port charges are included in your itinerary pricing.
Today you'll set out on a group walking tour of historic Venice, as well as a Grand Canal cruise, and an exclusive evening opening of St. Mark's Basilica. Venice, founded in the sixth century, rose up on 118 islands in a lagoon of the Adriatic Sea. It became a great political power that controlled all European trade with the East throughout the Middle Ages, and its citizens lavished their wealth on their home town. You'll stand in Piazza San Marco, perhaps the most famous plaza in Italy, where every view has been re-created by painters through the ages, and be awed by 11th-century San Mark's Basilica, adorned inside and out with treasures Venetian traders brought back from their voyages. The Palazzo Ducale, the Doge's Palace, reflects the wealth and the security of Venice's rulers—it contained both the doge's private quarters and the council chambers where the elite 1,000 met to make major political decisions. See the city as voyagers have always seen it, from the water, as you cruise along the Grand Canal, lined with palaces that reflect the history of the city—Byzantine, Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque—and spanned by famous bridges.
A full-day group excursion today takes you to Padua. The 13th and 14th centuries were glory days for Padua. At the Scrovegni Chapel you'll see the astonishing and moving frescoes painted by Giotto around 1300, but Giotto was not the only artist to shine here; Mantegna and Donatello also gave Padua extraordinary artistic treasures. Your walking tour will take you from the Basilica del Santo to Caffè Pedrocchi, which writers, poets, and artists have frequented.
Your full-day shore excursion today will have you traveling by coach to Ravenna, a vital seaport and Italian capital of the Byzantine Empire, is celebrated for the fifth- and sixth-century mosaics that adorn its churches. You will see the UNESCO-designated Basilica di Sant'Apollinare and the mausoleum of Galla Placidia; the buildings are sheathed in spectacular mosaics. Spend the afternoon rambling through the lovely historic downtown on your own, and enjoy artisanal foods tasting.
Spend the whole day in Bologna, called la grassa, meaning bountiful. Does it have the best food in Northern Italy? You be the judge. There's more to the city than Bolognese sauce, that's for sure—there's Parma ham, Parmegiano (parmesan), and perhaps the best tortellini in the world, all on lavish display at Bologna's amazing food markets. Join in on a pasta workshop and discover how to make your own fabulous pasta.
Your full-day excursion today begins with a coach drive to Verona. Shakespeare endowed Verona with fame through the ages when he wrote of two local star-crossed lovers, Romeo and Juliet, but Verona's wealth comes from its role as a center of trade; today it hosts Italy's biggest wine fair. You'll see architectural treasures ranging from an ancient Roman amphitheater still in use to Medieval palaces and the Piazza d'Erbe, with its 14th-century fountain. And, of course, you may stand below the Juliet balcony just as Romeo did.
Explore Venice at your leisure. You can take a vaporetto to Murano for the world-renowned glass studios. Of course, you must take a gondola ride! Go to the Gallerie dell'Accademia for the greatest collection of Italian masters in one place; you'll find Titian, Tintoretto, Tiepolo, Veronese, Canaletto, and Guardi, to name only a few. Lounge beside the Grand Canal with an aperitivo. Take time to see some of the quiet back lanes where tourists rarely go and get a sense of daily life in the enchanted city.
This morning you'll disembark from your ship, bidding farewell to your fellow cruisemates.
Board the coach transfer to the airport for your outbound flight.
Located in the historical heart, Hotel Palace Bonvecchiati is one of the newer and better hotels in Venice, as well as one of the closer ones to Saint Mark's Square and Rialto Bridge. Inviting rooms, defined by contemporary Italian design, break with 18th century tradition and make a new statement for Venetian hospitality. The rooms at the hotel each have their own personality and charm and are enhanced by all the modern comforts. La Terrazza Restaurant offers traditional Venetian and Italian dishes, served in an enchanting setting. Palace Bonvecchiati has a spa, which features a range of services to keep the guests relaxed.
The River Countess is a stunning, newly remodeled (2012) boutique river cruise ship, for an intimate group of up to 134 guests. Lavishly appointed riverview staterooms and suites have handcrafted Savoir® of England beds draped in high-thread count 100% Egyptian cotton sheets and European duvets, along with a menu of pillow options. Staterooms and suites on the Rhine Deck have French balconies. Public areas and facilities include the Main Lounge with full-service bar and dance floor, Captain's Lounge with library, elegant restaurant, patio lounge, sky lounge, sun deck with life-size chess and shuffleboard, fitness center, sauna, Serenity River Spa, boutique, and elevator.

Stand Back: NRA's PAC is Loaded on Eve of Convention
April 23, 2014
With a fat $14.1 million in its bank account, the NRA Political Victory Fund prepares to bolster a large herd of Republicans.
K Street's Fortunes Decline for Third Year
January 29, 2014
Total spending on federal lobbying fell by about $100 million in 2013, or a little less than 3 percent, and the number of lobbyists dropped again as well.
Industries Cut Lobbying Expenditures — Again
July 31, 2013
Is big business backing off K Street? After years of dominating the scene, several traditionally powerful lobbying interests have significantly cut back their spending in the second quarter of 2013. A list of industries that cut their spending most between the first three months of the year and the second three months reads like a Who's Who of lobbying heavyweights: Pharmaceuticals, electric utilities, oil and gas, finance and credit, telecom and agricultural services led the roster.
Quarterly Lobbying Reports Show Yet Another Decline
May 2, 2013
Following a pattern that has been playing out for the last few years, spending on federal lobbying declined in the first quarter of 2013. There were exceptions in connection with the hottest issues of the past three months, like the gun control debate; but overall, most organizations that traditionally spend big on lobbyists have cut back once again.
Spending on Gun Lobbying Doesn't Match Rhetoric
April 22, 2013
Not surprisingly -- and per the usual pattern -- lobbying expenditures by pro-gun rights groups in the first quarter of 2013 far surpassed that of groups on the other side. But there wasn't as much of a jump in that spending as some expected, given the Sandy Hook shootings.
Issues and Interest Groups in State of the Union Spotlight
February 12, 2013
The economy, immigration, gun control and climate change are among the issues President Obama is expected to highlight in his address tonight. But don't expect any of his proposals to sail through Congress -- there are too many interests at stake for that.
Culture Wars Skip K Street
May 2, 2012
Talking heads and culture warriors have been working overtime in 2012 on both sides of the abortion, birth control, religious freedom and gun rights issues. But for all the talk about how much -- or how little -- say the government should have on key social issues, the battles haven't spilled onto K Street. According to OpenSecrets.org data, lobbying on ideological issues was down nearly across the board for the first three months of 2012.
Jennifer Palmieri Spins Through Revolving Door Again, Back to White House
December 7, 2011
The White House press shop will soon have a new addition: Jennifer Palmieri, who will be the deputy communications director. Despite her status as a former lobbyist, Palmieri is likely to find a welcome home working for a president who once vowed that lobbyists would not "find a job in my White House."
Boeing's Influence Soars, Right-to-Carry Gun Bill Attracts Lobbyists and More in Capital Eye Opener: Nov. 18
November 18, 2011
Boeing Co. is one of the most influential companies in airline manufacturing and has continually shown its influence in lobbying Congress.
Bank of America Draws Criticism, Guns Groups Assault DC and More in Capital Eye Opener: Oct. 6
October 6, 2011
Bank of America's decision to charge its debit card users $5 per month has drawn the ire first of customers, and now, politicians, including President Barack Obama, who collected about $395,000 from Bank of America employees during his 2008 presidential run -- although this year BofA employees have favored Republican Mitt Romney with their campaign cash.

The word "guitar" comes from the Spanish "guittara," which comes from the Arabic "qitar," which comes from the Greek "kithara." It's easy to see that this musical instrument has been around for a long time and in many different cultures. Typically having six strings, variations have as few as four and as many as twelve strings.
Elvis Presley, Frank Zappa, Bruce Springsteen, and Bob Dylan are a few of the many musicians who have kept the guitar in the forefront of entertainment. Today's virtual guitars make it possible for anyone to learn how to play, whether you own a real guitar or not.

It's that time of year again when we mess around with our clocks.
Daylight Saving Time (DST) begins Sunday, March. 9th at 2 a.m. So remember to set your clocks forward one hour.
That means you are going to lose an hour of sleep. So you may want to try to go to bed earlier.
But why do we turn our clocks ahead?
Here is everything you need to know about Daylight Savings Time as described from the National Institute of Standards and Technology's website.
What is Daylight Saving Time?
DST is the time of year when we move our clocks one hour ahead in order to attain an extra hour of sunlight during the day.
The end of DST to Standard Time, or ST, comes at this time of year, fall. Clocks are moved back and an hour of daylight is lost in the evening.
When is Daylight Saving Time?
In 1918, the United States government introduced DST to the nation. It is effective for 238 days during the year and begins the second Sunday in March at 2 a.m., and ends the first Sunday in November at 2 a.m.
Just remember the old adage, "spring forward, fall back."
Why is there Daylight Saving Time?
DST was begun as a way to save energy. Advocates believe that by having an extra hour of daylight in the warmer summer and spring months, people will be more likely to go outside and not use up energy in their homes, the FAQ page of NIST.gov explained.
Where is Daylight Saving Time followed / not followed?
Forty-eight of the 50 states follow DST. The two states that do not are Arizona and Hawaii. Indiana changed over to DST in 2006. American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands also do not observe DST.
What are the current rules for Daylight Saving Time?
The Energy Policy Act of 2005 changed the rules of DST for the first time in 20 years. The United States Naval Observatory says that in the beginning of 2007, DST changed from starting the first Sunday in April to beginning the second Sunday in March.
In addition, DST initially ended the last Sunday in October, but was lengthened to ending the first Sunday in November instead.
So this Sunday remember to set your clocks a head an hour at 2 a.m. Standard Time in whatever time zone you are in.
Summer is not over just yet! Hot and humid conditions much of the week with temps in the 90's and upper 80's.
Summer is not over just yet! Today will be very hot and humid with high temperatures in the low to mid 90s and mostly sunny skies. A cold front will bring some thunderstorms tonight, some of which may be severe.
Wednesday will be less humid but it remains warm all week long.

A historic World War II plane arrived at Mesa Gateway Airport on Thursday.
The famous B-29 Superfortress is the only one in the world still flying.
Several other historic military airplanes will also be on display during the CAF Airpower History Tour.
The B-29 Superfortress is being flown in by the third female pilot to ever fly a B-29.
"This type of aircraft changed the course of history and we need to get her out in front of the public. We're a flying museum, we're losing veterans everyday and I find it incredibly important to remember them," said Debbie King, B-29 pilot.
The 3-day event starts Friday and goes through Sunday at the Mesa Gateway Airport.

NEW PALTZ — The Plattsburgh State baseball team managed only two runs in 16 innings Saturday and had its SUNY Athletic Conference Tournament hopes come to an end.
New Paltz (15-14, 11-6) recorded 7-0 and 3-2 victories over the Cardinals (9-20, 4-11) to complete a three-game weekend sweep.
"Today was a microcosm of our season," Plattsburgh coach Kris Doorey said. "We knocked out the best pitcher in the league (Friday) and never took advantage of anything (Saturday)."
Andrew Grann went the full seven innings to blank Plattsburgh in the opener. Grann allowed three hits, walked three and struck out three. Brian Burns started for Plattsburgh and took the loss.
Matt Carr and David Lostaglio rapped out two hits apiece for the Hawks, who had every starter except for one get at least a hit.
New Paltz broke a scoreless tie with five runs in the third.
Shane Houppert, Brian Latulipe and Mat Chavez accounted for the lone Plattsburgh hits.
"In the first inning, they dropped a fly ball and maybe we jump on it and get out to an early lead," Doorey said. "But we didn't. Then, after they scored, we had an opportunity to come back and drive a runner in. But once again we didn't.
"Brian hadn't pitched like this all season. But there's a lot of pressure on him to be perfect."
The second game was much more competitive as Corey Grossman gave the Cardinals a good pitching performance, despite taking the loss. Grossman allowed eight hits, walked two and struck out two in going the distance.
But New Paltz starter and winner Chris Pyz held the Cardinals to eight hits and two runs while walking three and striking out three over seven innings. Mike Pastorino took over in the eighth and Brian Solomon in the ninth for the save.

Making a mess of grass-cutting
4:25pm Thursday 29th May 2014 in Letters
I UNDERSAND the concerns about grass cutting in Salisbury and I have been writing to Wiltshire Council and councillors about this as Bishopdown Farm and London Road were looking terrible.
I notice now that an attempt has been made to remedy the situation in London Road.
But Balfour Beatty, which has this £24m contract, is letting all taxpayers down.
I have just come back from Dartford and as one drives down the A343 from the A303 and travels through Hampshire all the verges have been cut.
As soon as we pass the sign "Wiltshire welcomes you" there is no sign of the grass on the verges being cut.
And this must be the case on all roads.
Balfour Beatty has a huge task to catch up, but unless they do so their contract should be terminated.
Michael Claydon, Salisbury
I HAVE noticed the grass cutting on the Bemerton Heath estate – they cut the grass last week and may I say what a mess.
Is it too much trouble for them to rake the grass cuttings off after they have cut it?
It is a disgrace – tufts of grass left all stuck up, edges not cut and where there is a pavement edge the grass has not been trimmed at all.
If you can't do the job right, don't do it at all.
There is no tidiness with the council but they can't blame the tools, it's a human doing the work.
C Bell, Salisbury

How it Works
Learning with the Livemocha Community
The Livemocha community is made up of language enthusiasts: teachers, language experts, other language learners, and native speakers proud of their language and heritage. Community members help each other learn in a myriad of ways: they leave comments in response to practice exercises, build mini-lessons within exercise feedback, have practice conversations via text, video or audio chat, provide language practice and culture tips, and give much-needed encouragement.
The Livemocha Methodology
We believe that language is not merely an academic subject but rather a performing art – something that must be actively practiced in order to master. A learner can watch people speak a new language, memorize all of the grammar rules, and talk about the language ad nauseam. But to truly speak a language, a learner must actually try it out with a partner. Real conversational fluency takes good instruction, a dose of courage, and a lot of real-life practice.

I'm not exaggerating when I say that I very well may love avocados more than anyone else in the world. Not a day goes by that I don't consume at least one, and just the thought of cutting into a perfectly ripe avocado makes my mouth water and heart skip a beat. I once thought it was just us Texans who went crazy for this delectable fruit (yes, fruit), but cooks and foodies all over are celebrating both their versatility and high nutritional value. So for today's 10 Best, we've rounded up some of the most delicious and unique dishes that showcase everyone's favorite ingredient du jour. Click through, and if you love avocados as much as I do, leave a comment and let us know your favorite way to enjoy!

I think I love them more than anyone in the world too That avocado & shrimp ceviche looks stunning!
Katie Meyers / Meyers Styles
Avocados are hands-down one of my favorite foods, Chanel, so I am in love with this post. And, I think that shrimp and avocado ceviche is calling my name. Delish!
Sarah [Sarah The Architect]
I agree, avocados are the best!! I'll eat them with anything, even desserts thanks to Jeanine!
Amanda @ Once Upon a Recipe
I love this post – avocados are one of my favorite things and I've been buying them by the bagful! My favorite way to eat them is smashed on toast with sea salt and pepper. Yum!
Lauren Craig (@PerpetuallyChic)
As a fellow Texan and avocado lover, I really enjoyed this little roundup! My favorite way to eat them is grilled and then topped with fresh goodies (like this: http://bit.ly/PI12w2) — so, so good.
Angelica Golden
That avocado sorbet looks amazing! My favorite is simply avocado smashed on toast with a drizzle of olive oil, salt and fresh cracked pepper, and red pepper flakes–the best!
A friend once made an avocado, mango and quinoa (with a drizzle of lemon) salad – so good I now make it regularly.
My favourite way to eat them however is mixed with hearts of palm, sweetcorn and green chicory leaves (with a dijon mustard, oil and cider vinegar dressing)… unusual but amazing!
Tiffany D'Souza
This is perfect! I love avocados! I have been looking everywhere for different ways to include them into my daily diet, rather than the mundane way of eating them straight as it is with some honey drizzled on them – which is good too, but variety is much more fun. Thanks for the recipes.
Big fan as well and the hubs LOVES them! Some delicious ideas here – thanks hun x
Wow, I would eat every single thing in this slideshow. Those guacamole cups look scrumpticous!
One of everything, please! Avocados are my favorite. Thank you very much for including my burrito in your roundup!
Ummmmmmm my mouth is watering!! I eat a large Hass avocado everyday…sometimes more than that hehe. I will absolutely be trying most if not all of these! Thanks for posting Chanel!
Besides the lovely salad where can I get the fabulous tablecloth?!
Bill Knight
I like them with hickory or mesquite seasoning salt.

This story is starting to get a little strange. Early Sunday morning ESPN's Chris Mortensen reported that Carolina Panthers QB Cam Newton is seeing a 'mind coach' to help improve his sideline demeanor. On Monday the organization stated that they didn't organize it, but did Tweet out that Newton sought help on his own, curiously this Tweet has now been removed from the Panthers' official account; now Newton is denying he's seeing one at all.
Jonathan Jones of the Charlotte Observer wrote that Newton 'confirmed he's not seeing a mind coach' saying:
"I have not hired a sports psychologist [...] I have no idea where that came from. I have a strong support system in my teammates, coaches and family. My focus is on improving this week and getting ready to play Atlanta."
Support system or not, there's nothing wrong with getting professional help if you're unable to get past something yourself. Obviously there's still a huge stigma surrounding mental health, but Ron Rivera doesn't see a problem with it:
"I've got a guy on speed dial that is a sports psychologist that I've talked with since 1999, and he's been outstanding with me [...] So I see no issues with it. I think it's great that he's trying to be proactive and help himself, if that's what he's doing."
For now we'll need to file this one away as 'we have no idea'. Whether Cam is, or isn't getting help is inconsequential– as long as he changes his attitude on Sundays.

Susan Bordo 's first book, The Flight to Objectivity, has become a classic of feminist philosophy. In 1993, she published Unbearable Weight: Feminism, Western Culture, and the Body, followed by The Male Body: A New Look at Men in Public and in Private. In her new book, The Creation of Anne Boleyn, Bordo challenges the mythology surrounding Anne Boleyn's life and afterlife, exploring how generations of polemicists, biographers, novelists and filmmakers imagined and re-imagined Anne: whore, martyr, cautionary tale, prototypical "mean girl," feminist icon and everything in between.

I'm so happy with these blackout curtains! I ordered 2 sets for a large double wide window measuring 80" wide and hung them on a rod with matching clip-on rings, (also from Overstock,) that I extended to 106" wide. This creates the illusion of a much wider window and allows me to pull the curtains open and have the bulk of the fabric on either side without blocking the view. When the curtains are pulled closed there is still plenty of material to create soft folds across the window. This blocks about 95% of the light through this east-facing window.I bought the gray which is more of a blue-gray, as another reviewer mentioned. It works beautifully with my soft gray carpet even though there is no blue tone to the carpet color. The curtain fabric is the same color on both sides and has a somewhat heavy, yet soft, silky texture that drapes beautifully. I was surprised that the thread used was white, not gray, and the hem is just straight stitched, not a more hidden hem-stitch that I would have used if I made them myself. I thought that was going to be pretty noticeable but frankly, now that they are hung, it doesn't bother me enough to complain. I ironed them before hanging them, although they weren't overly wrinkled. Overall, the look is beautiful, they block the light effectively and I would definately buy them again at this great price.
I compared this product with 2 others sets of curtains from two major department stores. (one starts with "S" the other with a "K") These curtains were mid-range between both stores in terms of price, but the quality is superior! I have 2 large sliding glass doors that face West, so as the winter winds started to blow, I needed a solution. When this product arrived, I immediate loved the color and texture. When I hung them up, they definitely blocked out more light than the other ones I had tried. I can already tell a difference in the reduction of cold air that used to enter my living room. I never know what to think of these ratings when I read them. It's hard to order curtains without seeing them first. After shopping around, I had to leave a comment and highly recommend these.
I liked these curtains enough to buy them for 5 rooms in my home. The feel of the fabric is soft and smooth and they drape nicely. They're not heavy or stiff. I have purchased Chocolate, Beige and Dark Olive. The two darker colors do a great job of blocking light, the Beige not as well but still very good--good enough to use in the room of my day-sleeping shift-worker.(The Beige is not a gold at all but more of a very nice Stone or Antique White color.) We have a room with a wall of large windows and they help a lot with insulating. Before hanging I tossed them in the dryer with a damp cloth for 10-15 min. , hung them up right away, and all wrinkles or folds disappeared.
As someone familiar only with heavy, rubber-backed insulated drapes, I think the manufacturers seriously under-promoted that aspect of this product in the description. I can't believe how soft they are, and how well they hang and drape, nothing like the old insulated curtains. The fabric has a rich feel, but silky smooth, and it completely blocks the light, even direct sunlight. You may have a little light bleed through at the top where the rod is, but the fabric itself is totally, surprisingly, opaque. You can't tell if it's day or night, at least through the fabric. All of us online shoppers know the feeling of buying an item, and, once it arrives, finding out that it somehow doesn't live up to our expectations. This product exceeded my expectations, and will probably go into my Hall of Fame of Great Online Finds. Score one for the shopper!
I loved these curtains, but I ordered the gray and they are not gray. They are a smoke blue, they look terrible next to anything that is gray. If you are looking for the gray, do not order them because gray will not be what you get. Other than the color being really off on this one, I really liked the darkening they provided to the room. Seemed to help with outside noise as well. I had to return them and no other color will work for the gray I need.
Gorgeous pair of curtains. They are a bit heavier than a traditional pair of curtains. Make sure your curtain rods can withstand about 7 pounds...quite heavy due to their insulatedness. Great though. If you are looking for quality and value, this pair is great. Cardinal red came through as true fire engine red...just the exact color I desired.
They did the trick but wish you had more than just solids in this item.
I ordered one set first to be sure that these would work for my purposes and really liked them, so ordered four more sets. They are great, they look good and to quality exceeds what I expected.
I ordered these black out curtains severl weeks ago and they are perfect in every way. They really do make the room very dark (which I like when I am trying to sleep). They are soft to the touch and very durable. I have even machine washed on the mild cycle and they do great...no shrinkage or anything. I love these curtains and have told everyone I know about them. The best investment I have ever made in a purchase.
I loved them but they just didn't match as well with the wall color that I picked. So I returned them.

- Edulis (Toronto). "…the make-it-look-easy restaurant of the year. Refreshingly more show than tell, it does barn to table without the fuss. …it's above all not self-conscious…Nor should you be when you come back for more."
- Model Milk (Calgary). "Justin Leboe is taking his cooking down home without dumbing it down… perfectly tender southern-fried rabbit, the golden crust stung by hot pepper vinegar, sits on ethereally creamy grits."
- Ursa (Toronto). "…rootsy and possibly radical, but with more than a touch of glam… A cuisine that is health-oriented and highly original, but not preachy. We'll drink to that."
- Acadia (Toronto). "Encompassing Lowcountry and Acadian cuisines... the menu reinterprets with technical aplomb the messy jumble of rustic French and southern coastal influences."
- Pastaga (Montreal). "Pastaga shows off chef Martin Juneau's kooky but tightly controlled creativity… bison smoked meat sandwich with homemade rye, chopped liver 'à la juive,' marinated salmon and salmon jerky shavings..."
- Hopgood's Foodliner (Toronto). "…Geoff Hopgood presents East Coast comfort food with intimacy and intelligence. His nouveau Scotian cuisine is equal parts nostalgia and now."
- Grand Electric (Toronto). "…doing for Mexican what the isakaya scene did for Japanese. It's exciting, fun, affordable, quality late-night food to get drunk by."
- Keriwa Cafe (Toronto). "Keriwa's seasonal-minded menu draws First Nations techniques and unspoiled tastes of the Canadian landscape into an urban context…Canadian head-to-tail cooking with a history: a real dream catcher."
- Borgo (Calgary). "…a workhorse of a restaurant. It hustles from day to dark with the clatter of espresso cups and shared plates of the cuisine's greatest hits – golden arancini, imported salumi, crudi and cicchetti...."
- Nora Gray (Montreal). "Emma Cardarelli honed her command of red sauce at Liverpool House... the parade of direct, unfussy, seasonally motivated plates comes at you nonna style."
enRoute's Best Restaurants 2012
A big, HUGE congratulations to, "Edulis" (Toronto) for being named the best new restaurant in Canada according to enRoute's 2012 list! Every year, I look forward to seeing which restaurant will be featured by food journalist, Sarah Musgrave.

Louis James Kash died on November 11th, 2013, in Lexington, Nebraska. He was 93 years old.
Louis was born April 5th, 1920, at the family homestead near Winner, South Dakota, to Ethel (Smith) and Winnie Kash.
With the help of one of his deceased mother's sisters, Louis was able to attend high school in Valentine, Nebraska. His plans to attend the University of Nebraska were interrupted by World War II. A boy from a landlocked state, he enlisted in the Navy on November 6th, 1941. He volunteered for service in the Pacific, but a severe illness prevented him from shipping out with his class. During his term in the service, he attained the rank of Chief Petty Officer.
It was while he was in the Navy that Louis met Margaret Mary Gyger of Julesburg, Colorado. Following their engagement, Louis arranged for Margaret to fly on the China Clipper to Hawaii from San Francisco. They were married at the Church of the Crossroads in Honolulu on February 14th, 1946 and were married until her death in 1998.
Following his discharge from the Navy, Louis and Margaret moved to Lincoln, Nebraska, where he completed his degree in agricultural engineering.
They moved to Lexington in 1950 and Louis went to work for Walter Dunlap. When a lot became available on Cleveland Street, Louis bought it and, in the evening hours after work, single-handedly built a house for Margaret and their first child, Karen Margaret. Their son, Louis Mark, was born two years later.
By the early 1950s, Louis had saved enough money to start his own business. Darr Fertilizer Company provided advice to local farmers regarding crop husbandry, in addition to selling the necessary fertilizers. At about the same time, Louis also began investing in his own farm land. In 1963, with Dr. Ed Watson, Louis recognized the need for quality care for the elderly in Dawson County and together they built Westside Nursing Home, now known as Plum Creek Care Center.
After a brief courtship, Sunya Peters became Louis' wife on September 23rd, 2006. The couple has divided their time between homes in Arnold and in Lexington, with occasional travel to visit children and friends in other states. Together they have enjoyed bridge games with friends and attended grandchildren's school activities and birthday parties. One of Louis' many joys during the last decade was getting to know Sunny's family: Cynthia and John Timmermier of Omaha, Nebraska; Stephanie and Charlie Delp of Tampa, Florida and Melanie, Lane, Meredith and Dillon Chesley of Callaway, Nebraska.
Louis was involved in the civic life of his adopted town, serving on the School Board for many years. He was a Shriner, a Mason and an active member of the Lexington Rotary. For several years after his 80th birthday he volunteered at the Goodwill collection center in Lexington, receiving and organizing donations. Louis was an avid fisherman throughout his life and in later life was appreciative of friends who made sure he made it out to Johnson Lake a few times during the summer to try his hand at catching a bass. Louis enjoyed hunting and shot his last deer after he turned 90.
Louis is survived by his wife, Sunya Peters Kash; his daughter, Karen and her husband, Joe W. Redden, of Houston, Texas; granddaughter, Jennifer, her husband Bradley LaRue and their sons, Louis James LaRue (three) and Alexander Kash LaRue (seven months) Of Houston and grandson Michael Robert Jasa, his wife Jessica and their sons, Henry Robert (four) and Jackson George (two) of Olathe, Kansas.
His parents, his sister, Laurene Kash Hanson and his son, Louis Mark Kash, preceded him in death.
The family extends a special thanks to Marty Smith, Courtney Biehl, Lupe Carranza, Heather Vanburn, Dalia Quntana, Maria Reutlinger, Olga Gallego, Sandra Vicperino, Sherry Orozco and Kara Moomey and to the Lexington Hospice for their compassionate care.
A funeral service will be held at the First United Methodist Church in Lexington at 2 p.m. on Thursday, November 14th, 2013, with Reverend Dr. Dyton Owen, officiating.
Interment with military honors will be in the Greenwood Cemetery at Lexington.
Family and friends are invited to join the family in celebrating Louis' remarkable life at the service and afterward at Kirk's. Those who wish to honor Louis' memory are encouraged to donate to the Louis J. Kash Scholarship Foundation.
Reynolds-Love Funeral Home in Lexington is assisting the family with arrangements. Please forward online condolences to the family through reynoldslovefuneralhome.com.
