NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwire) -- 12/31/12 -- According to a recent Associated Press article, more and more colleges and universities are beginning to offer their students tools for online reputation management. The article highlights one recent graduate of Syracuse University, a Samantha Grossman; while the article says that Grossman "wasn't always thrilled" with the listing that emerged when her name was entered as a Google search query, the university helped her repair her online reputation. Now, a Google search for her name reveals only her professional photo and her list of credentials -- a clean online profile that has, according to Grossman, proven instrumental in her landing of a much-wanted advertising job. The Associated Press report on the importance of online reputation management has, naturally, drawn the attention of the leading online reputation management firm, ReputationChanger.com.
ReputationChanger.com reviews all of the latest trends in online reputation defense, and the company has issued a new statement to the press, in which CEO Cliff Stein offers his take on the Associated Press story. "That more colleges and universities are realizing the importance of online reputation management is ultimately a boon to students, and especially soon-to-be graduates," Stein says. "In college, it is easy to amass harmful online listings that could prove detrimental once the time comes to start seeking employment. For many college students, then, online reputation management is key."
The article from The Associated Press makes note of some of the specific ways in which a college student's online image might be impaired, listing "prank videos" as well as embarrassing photos from a frat party. "The truth is that there are plenty of potentially embarrassing images or listings that can make their way online, often quite innocently," Stein says. "A buddy might post a picture of you looking drunk and slovenly, not meaning to do any harm -- but if that image is the first thing a potential employer sees when he Googles your name, it could end your career before it even begins."
Stein says that online reputation management is a big concern for college students precisely because so many of them are preparing to enter the job market -- and because employers are turning, more and more frequently, to the Web as a tool for weeding out red-flag applicants. "Employers are flooded with job applications from clients, and many of them need quick ways to separate the desirable candidates from the not-so-desirable ones," Stein offers. "Conducting a Google search is often the best way to do exactly that."
For students whose colleges do not offer reputation defense tools, Stein says there are DIY alternatives. "Students can try to suppress unwanted listings by flooding the Web with good, positive content," Stein notes. "This content might include a solid, professional LinkedIn profile, a blog, a personal website, and more. The important thing is to keep this content clean and professional, without anything that might raise a would-be employer's eyebrow."
Students might also consult with a professional online reputation management company. "When the negative listings are really bad, like DIY mugshots or arrest reports, the DIY route may prove insufficient," Stein offers. "ReputationChanger.com reviews the online reputation needs of many clients, among them students, recent graduates, and job seekers. We have proven strategies for suppressing unwanted online listings, and for helping our clients to position themselves as desirable job candidates."
ReputationChanger.com was founded in 2009 by a team of online marketing and SEO professionals, and since then the company has established itself as the foremost name in online reputation repair. Providing services to businesses, brands, and individuals alike, the agency is zealous for giving companies and individuals control over how they are portrayed on the Web. ReputationChanger.com reviews the online reputation needs of countless clients, among them Fortune 500 companies, small businesses, individuals, and elected officials. The company's offerings include online clearing plans, review suppression, brand enhancement, and more.

Nigeria has the largest economy in Africa, at more than US$500 billion, and ranks 23rd in the world. A recent re-evaluation of Nigeria's true economic size doubled the previous estimate, and brought it well ahead of South Africa, which is a member (unlike Nigeria) of the G20 club for political as well as economic reasons. Nigeria's economy can be said to be quite diverse from one point of view, but heavily dependent on oil and gas at the same time. Oil and natural gas account for about 15% of Nigera's overall economy, but traditionally represent more than 90% of the country's exports and as...

Just What I Was Looking For!
Sharon Hart from Washington, NC
I am in love with this beautiful, high quality dining room set. With the leaf insert it is just the right size for my large dining room. This set is nice and heavy and the construction is solid. The table top is georgous! The large, sturdy chairs will comfortably seat all-sized guests. I have not found such quality at such a reasonable price in any furniture stores I have visited. The picture accurately displays the set as does the product description. Free delivery was timely and the delivery man helped us to unwrap the boxes to make sure there were no damaged pieces. My husband had no problem assembling the chairs and table. Wayfair, it was a pleasure doing on-line business with you.

Cameron's new treasurer quits before he starts
Friday 20 August 2010
David Cameron faced embarrassment last night after a multimillionaire former tax exile recruited to raise money for the Conservative Party resigned before even starting the job.
David Rowland, whose family has an estimated fortune of £730m, returned from Guernsey last year to donate almost £3m to the Tories in the run-up to the general election.
His appointment in June as treasurer, with the task of refilling party coffers depleted by the campaign, sparked a flurry of accusations about the business affairs and private life of the notoriously publicity-shy property magnate.
Mr Rowland, the son of a scrap-metal dealer who left school without qualifications, became a tax exile in the late 1960s after making his first million in property dealing by the age of 23.
He went on to build a vast corporate empire founded on company acquisitions. His involvement in a takeover of the Scottish football team Hibernian in the 1980s led to him being described in a Commons motion as a "shady financier".
In a brief statement issued by Tory headquarters he confirmed that he had decided not to take up the post, which was due to begin in October.
"Unfortunately my developing business interests mean I will not have the time to give that role the focus and attention it deserves," he said.
Mr Cameron has endured uncomfortable headlines in recent months over his links with wealthy business figures and there will be fresh questions over whether Tory chiefs examined the background of their millionaire recruit in sufficient detail.
Liberal Democrat MPs have demanded an investigation into the tax affairs of the billionaire Topshop boss Sir Philip Green – who handed ownership of his hugely profitable fashion empire to his wife, who lives in Monaco – after he was appointed as an efficiency adviser to the Government.
And during the election campaign the Conservatives faced repeated challenges over the tax status of their former treasurer, Lord Ashcroft, following the disclosure that he was a so-called "non-dom".
Conservative sources and friends of Mr Rowland said he made the decision not to accept the post entirely on his own and had not been put under any pressure by the party's high command.
They added that he had recently bought a bank in Luxemburg and the acquisition was taking more of his time and energy than he had anticipated.
He now jointly controls his business interests with his son Jonathan. According to the Sunday Times Rich List, the value of his interests grew by £100m in 2009 alone.
Mr Rowland, 65, who once paid £20,000 for a portrait of the Prime Minister David Cameron, became fully domiciled in Britain in advance of the election, enabling him to make donations to the Conservatives totalling £2.7m.
He stressed yesterday that he would remain a "deeply committed" supporter of the party. He added: "David Cameron is a great leader of the party and of our country and I will continue to actively support him and the party in the years ahead."
A spokesman for the party said: "We understand Mr Rowland's reasons for not taking up the role and remain grateful for his support."
But the Labour MP John Spellar MP said: "To lose one Tory treasurer with question marks over his tax affairs might be regarded as a misfortune, but to lose two looks like carelessness. What is it with the Tories that they keep picking people with questions over their tax affairs – and what do their Lib Dem allies make of all this?"
Lord Oakeshott of Seagrove Bay, a Liberal Democrat treasury spokesman, said: "It must be right for any British people in prominent positions in public life to be firmly resident and domiciled in the UK for tax purposes." Stanley Fink, who is currently the Conservatives' co-treasurer with Michael Spencer, will continue as sole treasurer when Mr Spencer steps down after the Tory conference in October.

Westminster basketball: big night from Yazzie moves Griffins within one game of title
GREAT FALLS, Mont. – The fourth-ranked Westminster College women's basketball team moved one step closer to a fifth straight Frontier Conference regular season championship with a 70-42 win over Great Falls (Mont.) on Friday night in the McLaughlin Center.
Westminster improved to 23-2 overall this season and remains perfect in league play at 12-0. The Griffins are now one win shy of clinching the conference title for a fifth consecutive season. Great Falls drops to 14-14 and 4-10 in the league with the loss.
Playing on regional television for the first time in school history, the Griffins started the game quickly for the Altitude Sports Network audience. Less than 10 minutes into the contest, it was 22-4 for Westminster and would grow the lead to 30-9 in the half. UGF would make a push to close the half and trailed 34-23 at intermission.
Just to make sure the game was out of reach, Westminster scored the first 12 points of the second half to lead by 23 with 16:22 left in the game. The Griffins would maintain a 20-point cushion throughout the rest of the half, and the 28-point final margin was the largest lead of the game.
The Griffins finished the evening shooting 44.8 percent from the field and were 51.7 percent in the second half. They made four treys and held a 36-32 edge on the glass. Westminster held UGF to 30.2 percent shooting and scored 23 points from 19 Argonauts turnovers.
Nicole Yazzie finished with a game-high 23 points. Her second-highest scoring night of the season was aided by three triples and a career-best 10 made field goals. The senior guard also added seven assists and matched her career-best with six steals. Cydney Tibbitts added 10 points and nine rebounds, while Kelsi Wells had 10 and eight.
Lindsey Abramson and Erin Legel led UGF with nine points apiece. Abramson and Kindra Jones grabbed nine boards each.
Westminster will take its first shot at clinching the regular season title on Saturday when it faces Montana State-Northern at 5:30 p.m. in Havre, Mont.

For millennia humans have been taking to the water to prove their awesomeness.

Speed across the water's surface with today's adventurous deal. Pay just $130 for a two-hour wakeboarding charter for two people or just $260 for up to four people.
Carving up the water has never been easier, safer, and more fun than it is with Blue Adventures.

You'll head out with the skipper and professional instructor on their specially decked out boat, fitted with a brand new wakeboarding tower.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

SEATTLE – A unique ice-class barge designed to clean up any oil spills that might result from Shell Alaska's upcoming operations in the Arctic Ocean has so far failed to acquire final U.S. Coast Guard certification.

Lawrence S. Pertillar (February/'47 / Connecticut, USA)
Poems by Lawrence S. Pertillar : 4692 / 16023
I Will Travel
I will travel.
From point A through to Z.
To journey on a path,
With no guarantee...
If the doing of it succeeds.
Or if my attempts should be defeated.
But faith I keep strong with me.
Knowing I will travel.
Knowing there will be obstacles.
And prepared for opposition.
To face and not replace with fear.
Doubts I chase away.
I've never been comforted by limits.
I will travel.
Since my mind will not permit,
A sitting to wish dreams to visit.
I am one who would rather travel.
I choose to greet and meet my destiny.

Photos by Lindsey Orton. The Holiday greeting card exchange is one of our favorite parts of the season and we love sharing them with you here!

nutcracker garland
We are a little bit smitten with Ikea's Holiday line this year. So many awesome graphic elements and as always they think of every detail. We likely went way overboard this year, and even though it's a little late in the game, wanted to share how we're using them in our decor! Using, or reusing, in this case. One giant nutcracker gift bag transformed into a giant nutcracker garland! First you'll need a few of the aforementioned bags. They're double-sided so you can get two out of each bag. Then cut the nutcrackers and attach them to the twine or string … Read more
cheer package
We had so much fun this Holiday getting these gift-giving challenges! Today we teamed up with HomeGoods to create a gift package and here's what we picked. Start with a gorgeous gold wire basket: Fill it with cozy necessities like a blanket, cocoa, popcorn, gold handled mugs, and gold baubles for their tree. We sent this package with Quinn to his teacher, but could have easily gifted this to any of our wonderful support systems. Friends, sisters, neighbors. We love gifting in reusable storage like this basket, or a vase, or pottery. Even after all the goodies are gone, you … Read more
nativity puppets
The Nativity is for sure the most loved (and touched) element to our holiday decor each year. We've found poor baby Jesus in some pretty precarious places. As much as we love having beautiful set, we always find ourselves needing something more durable that the kids can love on. Here's this year's, Popsicle Stick Puppets! Start with tongue-depressor size popsicle sticks. You can get these at the grocery store — no need for an extra craft store trip! Our boys are on the younger side so we had them paint the majority of the stick and then we finished off the … Read more
christmas tree cones
Do you all tackle the gingerbread house each holiday? We've found that with small kids that can be quite the undertaking. So we wanted to simplify the experience without losing what is so fun about it – the candy decorating of course. Enter Waffle Cone Christmas Trees! This is a great addition to a gingerbread house making party, or a standalone project. Here's what we used: Colorful candies, sprinkles, pearls and colored sugar flakes for decorating. Waffle ice cream cones for the trees, and store bought frosting (right from the can!) to bring them all together. Also, for crafting like … Read more

You have got your party dress for the festive season now finish your look by transforming your hair with Crazy Color, Manic Panic Dye, or this La Riche Hair Colour Kit by Directions. Kates Clothing has all your Gothic Hair Dye needs wrapped up for you!
This Hair Dye Kit is available in 8 different colours and has everything you need for a perfect hair dye job. The colours are Apple Green, Atlantic Blue, Flamingo Pink, Lagoon Blue, Mandarin, Poppy Red, Rose Red and Violet.
The kit contains:
1x Pot of Directions colour
1x Pre Dye Shampoo
1x Colour Protect Shampoo
1x Colour Protect Conditioner
1x Tint Brush
1x Colour Development Cap
1x Protective Gloves
These dyes usually last between 2-6 weeks and fade out gradually over time, mainly depending on how often you wash your hair.
Helpful Hints:
Shampoo the hair with a pH acid balanced shampoo, this will give the hair the correct acid balance, allowing Directions hair colour to achieve the best results. Comb Directions into the hair until it emulsifies, i.e becomes frothy, the pigments will have penetrated in to the hair, lighter shades may require a little more combing. Processing time is between 15 and 30 minutes, a plastic cap will contain the heat on the hair helping to achieve a better result. Rinse the hair thoroughly away from the face with warm water until all the residue dye has been removed.
All directions colours can be mixed with each other so to create your own unique shade. Directions will take faster and last longer on chemically treated hair eg permed or bleached. If more than one colour is applied the hair must be washed and dried separately, greater care must be taken when partially colouring lighter hair.
Shop the La Riche Directions Hair Colour Kit at Kates Clothing now.

Siegfried & Roy's Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat
The white tiger habitat is located at the south end of the resort and can be visited 24 hours a day. The critically endangered animals are living in an environment that is most suitable for their needs and comfort. They are rotated in and out of the habitat during the day, if they are not on show they are living in Siegfried and Roys secret garden. The habitat is held completely in white to allow the animals to blend in with the background which enhances their feeling for security. A special glas makes it not only more enjoyable for the visitor to watch the animals but also regulates the temparature within the enclosure.

Hi Janette,
I was just looking at some old messages and found yours again. Did you ever learn anything more form your mother? It was so exciting seeing that someone else is researching the same family. The 1850 Census shows David 45, married to Nancy 32. The oldest child, Caroline, is listed as 18. Also, I found that a David Brown married Lucinda Cockrell in Scioto Co. in 1830. I then found that a Daniel Brown married Nancy Smith in 1848. The way they wrote back then, David's and Daniel's were often confussed. I'm thinking that Lucinda was the mother of the children and died, possibly giving birth to the last child in 1847. He then married Nancy. This is only a theory. Sure wish I had proof. I know that David was born in VA, but that's all. If you have anything I would really appreciate hearing from you!!!
Thanks so much,

There are many things one "lives for". On a purely personal level, I

and nutritious food, even a good sleep. Feeling good physically, having no (or
at least, little) pain, tasting cold water to cool and refresh one's self,
feeling clean after a shower, breathing the fresh outdoor air, feeling the
warmth of the sun on one's skin, and relishing the brisk feeling of the
cold of winter, and the beauty of God's nature in the growth of a tree, in
a bush, or flower, as well as the amazing splendor of the glistening of snow

We were able to have 9 children (of 15 pregnancies). The cost and care of so many has been a struggle. But with 9 grandchildren here, and the 10th on it's way, we are now reaping blessings of raising children.

'She Hit Me First,' Greek Slapper Says
By Mark Memmott
This sounds like something we said in first grade:
"She raised her hand and hit me first and since I respect my honor and my name, I had to defend myself. The police ought to arrest her."
That's the excuse Greek far-right politician Ilias Kasidiaris offered on Star TV for that slapfest we posted about Thursday.
He spoke from an undisclosed location because there's a warrant for his arrest.
In case you haven't seen what he's talking about, the video's here.

Joel Embiid Takes Hilarious Pre-Surgery Selfie on Instagram
With the 2014 NBA Draft less than a week away, all signs previously pointed to the Cleveland Cavaliers taking former Kansas star Joel Embiid with the No. 1 overall pick–that is until the devastating news that the center would need surgery to repair a fractured foot.
Obviously, this is the last thing Embiid or any of the teams with a top-five pick want to hear before next Thursday considering how much this injury will impact his draft stock, but at least Embiid seems to be in good spirits about the injury.
In fact, Embiid seems to be trying to stay positive enough where he was willing to take a hilarious selfie of himself right before undergoing surgery on Friday morning. In case you've been living under a rock for the last year or so, "selfies" have become a popular way of life and it's safe to say this photo was the last thing any of us would have expected from Embiid before surgery.
Unfortunately, this latest news on Embiid will certainly make things interesting next Thursday as nobody knows what to expect in the NBA Draft. Embiid to the Cavaliers seemed to be a lock considering the amount of potential surrounding the center, but now it wouldn't be a surprise to see Cleveland take a safer pick like Jabari Parker or Andrew Wiggins.
Only time will tell when it comes to which team will take a chance on Embiid, but for now–all we can do is enjoy this selfie for the next couple of days.

Beezie Madden
Born: November 20, 1963
Hometown: Cazenovia, New York
Beezie Madden and Authentic at the 2008 Olympic Games. (Photo by Ken Braddick)
Originally from Milwaukee, Wis., Beezie Madden has been riding since the age of three and made her Grand Prix debut in 1985. Four years of continued success followed, including participation on winning U.S. Nations Cup teams, leading to being named the 1989 United States Olympic Committee's Female Equestrian of the Year.
Madden was the first woman and the first U.S. rider to ever reach the top three in the Gandini Show Jumping World Ranking List (achieved in 2004), and she was the first woman to pass the $1 million mark in earnings for jumping. Additionally, she has won the USEF Equestrian of the Year title three times, including back-to-back honors in 2006 and 2007, the first rider ever to do so, and then clinched the title again in 2013.
In 2004, she breezed through the Olympic Selection Trials, finishing in first place on Authentic. With her contribution of double-clear rounds in the 2004 Ath¬ens Olympic Games, she helped the U.S. team win the Gold medal. Her success on U.S. soil earned her the American Grand Prix Association (AGA) Rider of the Year title that year.
Madden added Team and Individual Silver medals to her resume at the 2006 FEI World Equestrian Games in Aachen, Germany, riding Authentic.
One of her greatest accomplishments in 2007 involved her win at the Rolex Grand Prix of Aachen in July. Madden again rode Authentic for this prestigious win over 40 of the world's best riders. To add to this honor she was named leading rider in Aachen.
Madden enjoyed another incredible year in 2008 with Authentic. She won her second consecutive Team Gold medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, where they won an unbelievable jump-off to also pick up Individual Bronze.
Beezie Madden and Coral Reef Via Volo (Photo by Sportfot)
In 2010, Madden teamed up with Coral Reef Via Volo to win the $75,000 Equine Couture/Tuff Rider Grand Prix. In the summer they traveled to Europe, where they won the Grand Prix of Aachen and placed third in the Grand Prix of Dublin. At the Spruce Meadows CSIO5* 'Masters' Tournament, the pair won the $50,000 Cana Cup and was part of the winning U.S. Team in the Nations Cup in September. That same month they picked up wins at the American Gold Cup.
2011 saw Madden win at home and on foreign soil. In March, she and Coral Reef Via Volo were part of the winning U.S. team in the $75,000 FEI Nations Cup presented by G&C Farm at the FTI Consulting Winter Equestrian Festival (FTI WEF). In April, Madden traveled to Leipzig, Germany, to com¬pete in the 2011 Rolex/FEI World Cup Finals, where she tied for fourth-place honors overall.
Madden kept up her strong form throughout the summer of 2011. With Cortes 'C', Madden claimed her first victory on the Global Champions Tour (GCT) winning the VDL Groep sponsored GCT Grand Prix of Valkenswaard. Later that month, Madden and Coral Reef Via Volo won the Longines International Grand Prix of Rotterdam.
The year ended on a high note for Madden. After collecting third place in the $75,000 Grand Prix de Penn National with Cortes 'C', she traveled to Guadalajara, Mexico, to represent the U.S. at the 2011 Pan American Games. Riding Coral Reef Via Volo, she won Team Gold and Individual Silver medals.
In August of 2012, Madden represented the United States at the 2012 London Olympic Games with Coral Reef Via Volo.
Beezie Madden and Cortes 'C' (Jon Stroud/FEI)
In 2013, Madden cemented her status among the sport's elite as she won at nearly every turn. She began her record-setting campaign at the FTI WEF winning the $125,000 FEI W-Cup Grand Prix CSI3* presented by Spy Coast Farm before aiding in the winning U.S. effort in the $75,000 Furusiyya FEI Nations Cup presented by G&C Farm. Also during CSIO Wellington, she produced a second-place effort in the feature Grand Prix, the $150,000 CSIO4* Grand Prix presented by Wellington Equestrian Realty.
In April, Madden traveled to Gothenburg, Sweden, to claim the one title that had eluded her in her illustrious career, the Rolex/FEI World Cup Final crown. She kicked off the week with a win in the Speed Leg before jumping three more consistent rounds with Simon to force a jump-off with the reigning Olympic champion, where a clear effort saw her claim victory.
She continued to dominate in Europe, producing an impressive two double-clears in Furusiyya FEI Nations Cup competitions and a Longines GCT Grand Prix of Chantilly victory over the summer with Cortes 'C'. Madden then helped the U.S. to a win in the Consolation Round of the Furusiyya FEI Nations Cup Final in Barcelona. As a testament to her 2013 success, Madden spent three months as the second-ranked rider in the world on the Longines/FEI Rankings. For her banner year, Madden was named the USEF Equestrian of the Year for the third time.
2014 is playing out to be another successful year for Madden, as she scored a big win in the $200,000 American Invitational presented by G&C Farm with Coral Reef Via Volo. She then traveled to Lyon, France, where she earned a seventh-place finish at the Longines FEI World Cup Jumping Final with Simon. She partnered with Coral Reef Via Volo to earn a second-place finish in Nations Cup competition for the U.S. at CSIO4* Coapexpan before winning the Gran Premio Veracruz.
In May of 2014, Madden was forced to sit on the sidelines for six weeks due to a broken collarbone returning to competition in July. She quickly returned to her winning ways, helping the U.S. to victory in the Furusiyya FEI Nations Cup of Great Britain presented by Longines at CSIO5* Hickstead with a double-clear effort on Cortes 'C'. She then became the first women to ever win the Longines King George V Gold Cup at CSIO5* with Cortes 'C'. The following week she was a member of the winning U.S. Nations Cup effort at CSIO5* Dublin with Simon.
Married since 1998, Madden and her husband, horseman John Madden, reside in Cazenovia, N.Y.

This rug worked well in our room. It was a perfect size and matched our colors perfectly. There is more green in this rug than indicated, which works well with our colors, but others may not be happy with it.
Loved how fast it came in the mail, I like that it wasn't a big thick rug.
So beautiful! I hope they get more in! It matches part of the Monet print I have hanging it the same room!
Even though I would not recommend this rug to a friend since I don't think it is all that great over all, I think I am keeping the product doe to the inconvenience of returning. I searched online for hours looking for a large, plush rug that would functionally compliment my family room and ended up ordering this one. It's only been there for a day, and so far I do not love it. It lacks plushness. The pile height is listed at almost 2 inches, but there is minimal thickness (which will require me to now purchase a rug pad). Everyone elses comments about the color are correct; it's more of a sage tone (and is actually more shiny that I anticipated- not in a good way).
Rug is fine. It had a lot of powdery stuff that came out when we unrolled it. The Powdery stuff seemed to linger even after vacuuming.
I just received this area rug and was more than surprised to see this variegated sage & white rug instead of the "gold" I bought. There is no gold in this rug at all, and the color changes from sage to whitish depending on how you rub it. The binding on one edge was poorly sown, with chunks of thread and pieces of the shag sticking through the edge. The rug also shed whatever the backside was coated with. All in all, I think this rug is poor quality and would not buy the brand again.......... I am more than curious as to why Overstock has not changed the description of the rug color, as many of the reviews are months old.........
