Complies with ECE R44/04I come with
Perfect product, just what i needed at a fantastic price, my two year old loves it She is just the right weight and height to start using this seat and it will last her 10 more years! What more could i want for such a good price. It is easy to set up, easy to put in, the straps are easy to adjust, its lightweight for carrying if needed, its safe, it keeps her in nice and securely.
Got this seat when it had £25 off so it made it £27 odd with delivery. I wouldn't have bought it otherwise as I've had a Kiddicare own brand seat before for grandparents car so I knew basically what to expect. It's got no padding just the basic cover and the harness can't be moved up or down like other more expensive models. It's a faff to install as you have to put the belt through the back of the seat between the cover & the plastic and it doesn't feel particularly sturdy once it is in. Took OH & myself 10 mins to work out if was in ok as it doesn't stay in place like you would expect it to. In the main car we use a maxi cosi axiss & a Hauck varioguard so this seems a little inadequate, but we figured for the amount of times it will be used it will be fine as it's obviously safe enough otherwise they wouldn't be able to sell them! I've said I would recommend it below but only as a second seat as I don't think it would be comfortable enough for long term use due to lack of padding. Having said that my 3 year old looked quite pleased with herself in it, I imagine because it's more like sitting in a normal seat.
I bought this for my grandson and it's perfect for us ,easy to install and he seems very happy in it . We have not tried him in it on a long journey yet but I don't see any problems , I bought it on offer which was even better ,delivery was fast too ,overall am very happy I bought this car seat.
Easy to install quick delivery
I bought the car seat because it was on a very good price. I didn't expect much as it was quite cheap but I was nicely surprised when opened the box. I still haven't used it but it looks great.

Two thousand years before THE JOY OF SEX, the KAMA SUTRA detailed every aspect of the lovers' experience. Here is the fascinating story of this remarkable text.
Its 36 chapters detail the complete range of erotic experience from formulas for aphrodisiacs to foreplay and explicit details of intercourse. More than 2,000 years after a forgotten Hindu high priest sat down to compile all that was written about sex and sensuality, the Kama Sutra continues to inspire delight and spark controversy.
Take an unblinking look at one of the most remarkable and, to some, notorious works ever written. This program traces not only the details of the book itself such as the identity of the author and how it eventually came to the attention of the Western World but also explores the culture that gave rise to it. Visit an incredible temple-town a few hours drive from Delhi decorated in erotic sculptures that celebrate the sexual positions of the Kama Sutra, and which Mahatma Gandhi wanted to destroy. And meet with historians and leading thinkers including bestselling author Deepak Chopra who offer insight into the place of the Kama Sutra in Indian culture and history.

LAKE GEORGE, N.Y. — Saturday may not have felt like a day for swimming, but that didn't stop hundreds of people in Lake George.
About 550 people came out to Shepard's Park Beach for the 6th annual Polar Plunge. It's a benefit to raise money for the Special Olympics.
It's also a competition for many of the participants, who form teams and try to out-raise their competitors.
"It's an opportunity to raise money for our athletes. We never charge them to compete or train in 22 Olympic-style sports, so events like this help to provide training opportunities, to provide transportation, meals, anything that goes along with competition," said Michelle Iorizzo, Special Olympics New York.
"I was really really scared, I was very nervous, but today was a beautiful day and it's for a great cause, and everybody's energy really amped it up, so it was good," said Angela Tucker, Glens Falls.
Organizers raised about $80,000 from this year's event.

Over the past few days I've read an antique book online via Google Books: Philip Tocque's Newfoundland: as it was and as it is in 1877. I started out skimming descriptions of particular settlements, hoping for contemporary details, but I got caught up in Tocque's opinions about the social structure of 19th-century Newfoundland, which he calls a "fishocracy." Despite his obvious patriotism, the portrait he paints of Newfoundland is grim: all corruption, abuse, ignorance, partisanship, and violence. The frame of his critique is that Newfoundland was always administered by the Crown only as a profitable fishery, with no concern for the well-being or human rights of the island's residents and workers. Tocque was himself a merchant's son from Carbonear, and had a comfortable upbringing, but seems to have been spiritually moved towards progressivism.
Perhaps most striking about Tocque's work is his nascent environmentalism. He finds the seal fishery disgusting and exploitative of both animals and humans. As a young man, in 1831, he stowed away on a sealer and became convinced by what he saw that the seal hunt was immoral. Years later, he still writes powerfully about the sickening violence:
On the first of March, all is bustle and animation, preparing for the seal fishery. Persons are seen coming in from all parts of the country, some by land, with their bats, sealing-gun, and bundles of clothes over their shoulders; others come in skiffs, loaded with clothes, boxes, bags, guns, and gaffs. From the 1st to about the 10th of March, the streets of Harbour Grace, Carbonear, Bay Roberts, and Brigus, are crowded with groups of hardy seal-hunters. Some are employed bending sails and fixing the rigging of the vessel; some making oars and preparing the sealing-punts or skiffs; others collecting stones for ballast, filling the water casks and cleaving wood; while others are employed putting on board the provisions necessary for the voyage. The shouting, whistling, and clatter of tongues, presents almost a scene of Babel. In severe winters the harbors are frozen, when a channel through the ice has to be cut for the egress of vessels. Many men and vessels are lost in the prosecution of this voyage. Sometimes vessels are crushed between large masses of ice called 'rollers,' at other times they get in contact with islands of ice. The seal-fishery is a constant scene of bloodshed and slaughter. Here you behold a heap of seals which have only received a slight dart from the gaff, writhing, and crimsoning the ice with their blood, rolling from side to side in dying agony. There you see another lot, while the last spark of life is not yet extinguished, being stripped of their skins and fat, their startlings and heavings making the unpracticed hand shrink with horror to touch them. In the prosecution of the seal fishery the Sabbath is violated to a great extent. In pursuing this branch of commercial enterprise, some have been suddenly raised from comparative poverty to wealth and affluence. On the other hand, persons of means have embarked in the voyage, and have been as suddenly reduced to poverty. Several steamers are now sent to the seal fisheries from Harbour Grace. Fortune at best is but a fickle goddess, but she will always have devotees worshipping at her altars. (pp. 123-124)
He expands on that idea later and says that the seal fishery is nothing but a lottery in which the merchants risk capital for the chance at vast riches, while the fishermen risk their lives for short pay.
That was in 1877. My Newfoundland grandparents were born in the 1890s and had no trouble with the seal fishery. My grandmother had fond memories of eating seal meat. Since her day, the world economy has changed. It's impossible to justify the brutal seal hunt in the 21st century. This year's hunt has just ended, with kills far under quota for the second year. This drop reflects lower demand for the furs (now banned in the EU), and also fewer hunters. Seal hunting requires one to go out on foot on the spring ice, and with global warming the spring ice is more dangerous than ever, adding even more risk to a bloody job. Some activists are calling for a boycott of all Canadian seafood until the seal hunt stops. (Beware graphic images of dead seals at that last link!) The seals even have a celebrity spokesman in Bill Maher. We can hope that two centuries after Tocque's troubled witnessing, the seal hunt will also be history.

NFPA 1144: Standard for Reducing Structure Ignition Hazards from Wildland Fire, 2013 Edition
|Item # 114413
|Member *
|Table of Contents
|Quantity Discounts
Reduce death and destruction from wildfire. Use rules for hazard assessment, building design, and fuel modification in the 2013 NFPA 1144.
Essential for community preparedness and protection, NFPA 1144: Reducing Structure Ignitions from Wildland Fire provides a methodology for assessing wildland fire ignition hazards around existing structures and provides requirements for new construction to reduce the potential of structure ignition from wildland fires.
Revised to incorporate the latest industry data from the USDA Forest Service, NIST, and other authorities, the Standard's updated provisions cover design, construction and landscaping elements for structures in the wildland/urban interface.
Update your knowledge of important changes in the 2013 NFPA 1144, including:
- Additional clarification for the definitions of combustible, noncombustible, and ignition-resistant material
- New requirements for the maintenance and use of noncombustible roof gutters, down spouts, and connections
- Protect the lives of both residents and fire fighters and reduce property damage when wildfires strike.
NFPA 1144 presents basic criteria for fire agencies, land use planners, architects, developers, and local government for planning development in areas that might be threatened by wildfire. This Standard, when used as part of a cooperative approach among key disciplines, will provide guidance in the design and development of Firewise Communities in or near wildland fire-prone areas. Landscapers, commercial property owners, and home owners can also used this document to reduce the likelihood of structure ignition during a wildfire event. (Softbound, 30 pp., 2013)

|This ship has been lost in the Expanse for months at the very least. Even assuming it only drifted into the asteroid field right before the episode, it would have been in there for a matter of hours. Given the frequency of collisions that we observed in the field, the ship should have been bashed to bits in no time – yet as far as we could see, not a single asteroid ever hit it.
Also, once again we have an asteroid with Earth-normal gravity. Unless these asteroids are massively dense - like a thousand times denser than the densest known element - this is simply impossible.
|Great Moment :
|Lots of eye candy in this one. The asteroid field stuff is my favourite.
|Body Count :
|Many Vulcans were shot, but it was all using stun settings so presumably none would have been killed. All 147 Vulcans would have been killed when the ship was destroyed though.
|Factoid :
|This episode gives us a crew complement for the Sh'ran class - 147 people. This is incidentally yet another occurance of the famous Trek "47 syndrome".
This was the halloween episode, hence the whole "Night of the Living Dead" theme.
|Quote :
|"Part of the fun of a mystery is trying to solve it before it ends. Using logic. You of all people should appreciate that." - Trip to T'Pol; concerning the movie

how long till my guppies give birth???
Hey guys,
I have a video of my 2 pregnant guppies and I don't know how long till they give birth?
And I still haven't got my tank planted yet. I only have java moss but I have some driftwood I am treating so i can get rid of that ugly bell :)
CheersAqua one AR-850 40 gallon
10 neon tetra
5 black neon tetra
5 Guppies
(still stocking it)
Java moss (Anubis and java fern on driftwood next :) )
If you have a male and female guppy, very soon, your tank will be overrun by the guppies. What are your long term plans to deal with this issue? Also, starting with two will result in a terrible inbreeding issue long term (you can't give these back to a ILS for reselling.)
You don't give details on your tank size so no idea on what the effect on your tank parameters a large number of guppies will have. By the way, I can't get your link to work.
Last edited by Cermet; 01-05-2013 at 12:28 PM.
My personal experiences taught me that guppies may not overrun the tank if you have male and females which is something many are concerned about. My wife had me get some guppies for one of the tanks that I had running about 2 years ago, the way I had the tank setup there was not many places for the fry to hide so the adults were able to hunt down the majority of the fry. The adults I had would eliminate all but perhaps 2 or 3 fry and the adults did not have batches of fry very often either which helped. The liquid rock and cooler water temperatures (hardness around 300 ppm, pH = 8.4, temperature 68-72, ammo 0, nitrites = 0, nitrates = 20-40) I had them in might have played a factor too.
If you have a fish or two that is proficient at hunting fry and there are not many places for fry to hide you may not have to worry much about a guppy population explosion.
The wife had kept guppies before we meet and she described the tank as having more guppies than water so she has seen both extremes.

If you are interested, there is a debate over Christopher West's approach to Theology of the Body. As I have stated previously, I count Christopher as a friend, even though I don't agree with him on everything. Also, while I have been critical of Dawn's thesis, I believe she had good intentions behind it and several good points, even while I disagree with her on some major ones.
One of the things I have found in this debate is that neither "side" likes to admit when the other "side" has a good point. This doesn't help further the debate. A lot of it has become a "he-said / she-said" affair, which means people are defensive, walls go up, and some are trying to win.
Fulton Sheen once said, "Win and argument. Lose a soul." The participants in this debate should keep this in mind.
With this in mind - Janet Smith has written a response to Dawn Eden's thesis (pdf download here). There are a few good points and a few not-so-good ones. A few of my thoughts are interspersed within the quotes below. My thoughts are in Red.
A few snips:
I have communicated some of my concerns to Eden, but that dialogue did not end well. I am glad she did this directly with Dawn. This is part of the problem with the whole debate - Christopher hasn't been a part of it yet and it is public. It should have been done in private first, then brought out in the open. The scandal that has come from the whole debate is driving some people away from a wonderful teaching. I fear some people have taken a mere glance at her thesis, and since they are predisposed to accept her conclusions, they are dazzled by the number of quotations and footnotes into thinking that she has provided a worthy critique West's work. Here, I would like to invite those who are using Eden's thesis as the foundation of their rejection of West to test her claims. Go to the sources that she cites and see if her representation of West's views is accurate. I think they will discover that Eden regularly distorts what West says. I agree that her footnoting, quoting, and sources need a lot of work. I also agree that she distorts what Christopher actually says. But, Eden still has a few good points that need to be considered, even if the thesis isn't the greatest academic work. Fortunately, they will also discover an author much worth reading, that is, West. When Eden's work exhibits the care that West's does, and when she exhibits his fairness, humility and docility, There is no need to comment on her humility. she will have a great deal to offer the Church.Another:
Eden herself may not yet be enough of an expert on the Theology of the Body to be publicly critiquing the work of an author whose writings and presentations have been favorably reviewed both by bishops and top scholars. Maybe she doesn't know the TOB as well as many others, but I don't think that this should take her out of the debate.More:
Violating the "hermeneutic of continuity" is what Eden considers to be the most serious flaw in West's work. Oddly, she does not set aside any specific portion of her thesis to defend this charge. Her most direct engagement of the issue of "hermeneutic of continuity" is in her presentation of the first of ten "themes" she finds in West's work, a section of only two pages at most. She states the theme in this way: "The Theology of the Body is an all-encompassing theology that requires theologians and religious educators to recontextualize 'everything' about Christian faith and life" (ET, 11). She explains further by stating, "It isn't just about sex and marriage;" it is a "revolution" that "will lead to a dramatic development of thinking about the Creed." (Eden notes that this quotation came from George Weigel's Witness to Hope, 343). There is a striking set of words linked here: "all-encompassing," "recontextualize," "everything," "revolution," and "dramatic development." Eden bombards her readers with words that she seems to believe will shock them. Surely, there can be no hermeneutic of continuity if such radical claims are being made.One more:
But does West say such things and, if so, where, and what does he mean? The merit of Eden's thesis over against some of the other pieces against him is that it provides readers with sources where they can go to verify her charges. Unfortunately, as I have stated, when one goes to the sources or even reads carefully what Eden has stated, one rarely draws the same conclusions that she does. I have to agree on this point. I do not believe that there is such a radical disconnect with the Traditions of the Church as Eden proposes. I was hoping to find where West says what she states the first theme to be. Eden doesn't lead us to any passages that state that the Theology of the Body is an "all-encompassing" theology; she only notes that West said it "isn't just about sex and marriage." (ET, 11) I would have thought Eden would be pleased that West says the Theology of the Body "isn't just about sex and marriage," because elsewhere she accuses him of presenting the Theology of the Body as though it were only about sex and marriage. He can't win! I think Smith is missing the point. Sometimes Christopher does go to far in trying to stretch the TOB. But, this teaching is new and some mistakes are bound to be made. Furthermore, he does try to sexualize things a bit much, even if it isn't as bad as what some make it out to be.
Eden maintains that West's claim that the Theology of the Body is causing a "new sexual revolution" "implies discontinuity" (ET, 66). I suppose it might — but not a discontinuity with Church teaching. Eden fails to understand several claims West makes. He is claiming at least these three things, all defensible, in my view: 1) that those who teach Church teaching about sexuality and who use the concepts of the Theology of the Body, will present it in a more positive way than it has often been presented in the past; This is true in many respects. 2) that the teachings of the Theology of the Body have given us a much deeper understanding of the way that the body reveals truths about man and God; Also true. and 3) that if people understand and live by the teachings of the Theology of the Body, there will be a revolution in sexual conduct. Also true. None o these claims involve a "hermeneutic of discontinuity." Here is the biggest disagreement I have with Dawn's claims. I do not see the discontinuity either. Just because a teaching is called "revolutionary" does not mean it necessarily must be a change in doctrine. It seems to me that it is implying a change in individual behavior, which is much needed today.I could go on, but I haven't the time.
Suffice it to say - I pray for more charity and more clarity regarding this debate. Please pray with me.
John Paul II pray for us!

Narcissistic injury is the term used for any threat to a narcissist's outsized ego or self-esteem.
No, I'm not putting him on ignore. For what? Thats the equivalent to tapping out in a fight or telling the coach to take you out because an opponent is annoying you. Sorry not in a mans DNA. Thats Raven Brown behavior. Not athe Steeler way
how many drives did he have in the 4th QR? troll. was it 2?
1 ending in a fumble and another 3rd and 9 that wasnt converted the defense let this raider team walk down the field and kill time.
did you see the time of possession at the half. 22 minutes to 8 we had the advantage and (hint hint0 it wasnt cause of the run game
Got two newbees to put on Ignore Feature now. Their negativity is affecting the generally positive culture of the board. So, bye boys.

"He talks too much, he doesn't make sense, he's fat, he's sloppy, he acts like he's the best thing since sliced bread. He's ugly, he stinks, his mouth stinks, his breath stinks, and basically his soul stinks, too.
"Not too many people have personalities like that and survive in life. I don't know how he does it."
-Kris Jenkins on Warren Sapp
What does that mean? Manning had one when he played us and he SCORED a TD. What does that mean? We had the advantage so if Ben puts up 40 do we lose? Not likely.
I'll say it again the most consistent part of our team is the Defense. Teams FEAR our Defense in the NFL. They sure dont fear our offense. The run game is missing THE STARTER lol
I pick fights? Uh.. I think I'm being called "troll" even by you. I'm being called bleep bleeep.
I understand but the facts remain that we lost because Ben was scoreless in the 4th. Dont get mad at me get mad at Ben. He did it. Perspective.

Sebastian Vettel held off Mark Webber to win the Malaysian GP while Lewis Hamilton joined the Red Bulls on the podium...
Red Bull:
Sebastian Vettel: "I messed up today. I would love to come up with a nice excuse as to why I did it, but I can't. I can understand Mark's frustration and the team not being happy with what I did today; I owe an explanation to him and the whole team. I will try to explain to them later. We talk about this situation happening many times and what we will do if and when it happens and normally it doesn't, but today it did and I should have translated the call into action. I got the call and I ignored it. Mark and I are used to fighting each other when we're close, but with the tyres how they are now, and not knowing how long they will last, it was an extremely big risk to ignore the call to stay second. We could have ended up finishing eighth or ninth after destroying the tyres in those two laps; I put myself above a team decision, which was wrong. I didn't mean to and I apologise. I'm not happy I've won, I made a mistake and if I could undo it I would. It's not easy right now and I owe apologies to Mark and the team."
Mark Webber: "I think Sebastian has respect for me and I have respect for him, but the situation today was not handled well. It's hard to put your finger on it all now after the race; when we're racing on the limit and pushing as hard as we can, then it's the worst situation for a team. I am sure they are bricking themselves and know that things can go wrong. There's a bit of history to this as well; my mind in the last 15 laps was thinking about a lot of things, but I was happy with the way I drove. I tried to isolate what happened at the end and we got something out of it today, but of course I'm not satisfied with the result. This puts heat on a few people and unfortunately there's no rewind button. I know people want raw emotion from us after these situations and it's there, but we need to remain cool. There's three weeks until the next race, so time for us to work on things."
Lewis Hamilton: "That was a fantastic job by the team today. They worked so hard over the winter and to achieve a podium at the second race of the season is a nice reward, particularly here in Malaysia at one of our home races. I have to say big congratulations to Nico. He drove a smarter and more controlled race than me this afternoon and deserved to finish where I did. The team made the call for us to hold positions and we both respected that. The race was tough, we were fighting hard with Red Bull and went aggressive on our fuel strategy but they were just too good today. Third and fourth places is still a great result for us however and just increases our motivation to keep pushing and close that gap."
Nico Rosberg: "It was a great day for us as a team and we can be very happy of our performance here this weekend. It was a good feeling to be competitive and to be able to set fastest lap times during the race. Thanks to all of you at the team for all the hard work, results like these are very well deserved. Of course, it was disappointing for me having to hold position but I understand the team's decision to safeguard our positions and to make sure that both cars got to the end with a strong team finish, especially in light of the tough times behind us. There are a lot of races to go and our performance today makes me look forward to fighting for more podium finishes in the future."
Felipe Massa: "Today's race was really complicated, because starting with a new set of intermediates on a track that was very damp at some points and completely dry at others, prevented me from having a good pace and I lost ground to many other drivers on the first lap. Maybe bringing forward the first stop to fit dry tyres was a slightly risky choice, because the track was still damp and this cost me time. Then on the dry track, the car improved, the tyre degradation wasn't excessive and I managed to settle into a good pace, but at that point, any hope of finishing on the podium had vanished. I can't say I'm satisfied with this result, but given all the difficulties I had at the start of the race, I am happy to bring home a good points haul."
Fernando Alonso: "Today, unfortunately, we were very unlucky. After making a good start, I touched with Vettel at the second corner: it was a surprise to find him there, almost stopped and I don't know what speed he was doing. Despite the fact the car was damaged, it didn't seem to be too bad and, together with the team, we decided to keep going, because if we'd stopped immediately and then again on lap 3 or 4 to fit dry tyres, we would have dropped too far back and definitely lost the chance to finish up the front. It's easy to criticise this decision, but at the time it seemed like the right one. It was certainly a shame, because here we could have fought with the Red Bulls, but circumstances didn't help and apart from the wisdom of the decisions we took, bad luck really played its part, when you think how many off-track excursions there were in Australia without any consequence and even here when the cars first went out on track. Now we are already focusing on the coming races in China and Bahrain, where we hope to do better than last year, so that we arrive in Europe with as many points as possible."
Lotus F1:
Romain Grosjean: "I think we can be quite happy with the result today. It was a tough race, starting wet and finishing dry, but that's what you expect in Malaysia. I spent a lot of time stuck behind Felipe [Massa] in the middle phase of the race and I'm sure if I could have passed him earlier then I would have stayed ahead, but by the end my tyres were finished so it was best just to let him through. It's not the result we would have wanted at the beginning of the weekend, but at the end of the day it's more points for the team and we'll try to come back stronger in Shanghai."
Kimi Raikkonen: "Although the car felt very good on Friday, yesterday and today have been pretty difficult. Since Saturday morning it has not been behaving as we expected for some reason, especially in the wet where we really struggled for grip. It was a tough race and I lost part of my front wing at the start which didn't help, but at least we scored a few points which is better than coming away with nothing. If we can get the car back to how it was in Australia then I'm sure we'll be at the front again."

Jean-Louis-Ernest Meissonier
French, 1815–1891
The Painter in his Studio, 1872
oil on canvas
34.5 x 26.9 cm
Collection of the Winnipeg Art Gallery; Gift of Mrs. R.A. Purves
Jean-Louis-Ernest Meissonier received critical acclaim after submitting his first work to the Paris Salon in 1834 at age 19. Initially trained as an engraver and illustrator, Meissonier later became a specialist in conversation pieces, producing small-scale pictures featuring popular genre scenes and costume dramas intended for domestic spaces. Highly popular among European collectors, his paintings feature elaborate interiors, with detailed furnishings and meticulously dressed subjects, capturing the elegance and charm of France in the late nineteenth century. The WAG picture shows an artist at work in his studio attended by three fashionably attired gentlemen who appear very interested in the work in progress on the easel.

Climate Change
Climate change is one of the defining challenges of our time. Receding forests, changing rainfall patterns and rising sea levels will exacerbate existing economic, political and humanitarian stresses and affect human development in all parts of the world. As the leading global organization in the fight against poverty, with a presence in 177 countries and territories, UNDP is responding on the front lines of climate change – where it hits the world's 2.6 billion poorest people the hardest. UNDP works with national, regional, and local planning bodies to help them respond effectively to climate change and promote low-emission, climate-resilient development.
UNDP support focuses on three areas: connecting countries to knowledge, experience and resources to help people build a better life; helping countries build more resilient societies; and strengthening the capacity of countries to access, manage and account for climate finance.

These traditionally looped terry towels come from the Denizli region of Turkey, which is legendary worldwide for its toweling of extraordinary thickness and absorbency. These genuine, 100% cotton Turkish towels have an 800-gram weight, making them among the heaviest, densest towels available in this country. Their 1/4"-thick pile makes them exceptionally soft while an abundance of tightly wound loops offer superior warmth and absorbency. Their softness is greatly enhanced with subsequent washings. White. Imported. If you desire to monogram this item, please call 1-800-395-7006.
"These are the best quality, longest lasting towels I have ever purchased. They last several years even with weekly washing and bleaching. I will continue to purchase these towels and highly recommend them." - S.C., California

A fine Towel
By Jack is a Maine Coon Cat
from Georgetown, TX
This is the best bath towel on the market. I like that it has a small border (vs larger boarders on some other Turkish towels). It is soft and very absorbent. The price is reasonable for the quality of the towel.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

the towels were soft and very absorbant but, when i dry myself off there are little fibers from the towels that i have to wipe off my skin/face. I'm hoping that after a few washes this will cease

Time will tell
By Grandma Jay
from Seattle
I was very, very disappointed to see the washing instructions. My current Egyptian cotton towels have been used daily for over 15 years and, despite hot water and chlorine bleach, are as good as new. I can only hope that these new ones will give me half the quality!
Very soft
By Mother of four
from Iowa
I really like the big, heavy duty towel. I just wish they had different colors other than white. This is what is preventing me from buying any more.
They are the Real Turkish Towel!
By willie
from Rural Texas
these are just like the ones we used in Hotel Effes during the 60's and 70's while stationed in Turkey. i.e. they are the Real Deal.

Use is daily after the shower

Always Great
I always stay at the Crystal Lodge when I travel to Whistler. Service is excellent, the location is perfectly central, and the rooms are well appointed. It's probably the best property you could possibly choose to stay at in terms of location and affordability. I have only stayed here for the past four years when visiting Whistler, by myself, with my boyfriend or with my family, and I will continue to give them my business.

I'm surprised how many people want to see Reggie walk. He wasn't used correctly and is arguably the only offensive playmaker on our team.

Hartline is not a #1 receiver, but he can be a good #2, or very good #3.
The idea is keep your decent/good players, while using your 5 picks in the first 3 rounds to turn the weaker units on your team into strengths. Not by creating more holes.
Starks. It would not shock me in the slightest to see Seattle sign him if Miami doesn't.
"If foot fetish videos of your wife surface online, and the voice of the cameraman sounds like you, just admit that it was you ... because the alternative is that someone else was filming foot fetish videos of your wife, and I'm pretty sure that's worse." - Bill Simmons's enduring lesson to Rex Ryan.
I voted Fasano for multiple reasons.
First I am big on resigning players who stay healthy, second if it is a position of need, 3rd talent level and fourth affordability. Starks would have been my first choice except that we have more talent on the DL position than the TE position and he would cost more to resign because he plays at a premium position. Hartline would be 3rd because he has ended up missing games hurt the 2 seasons prior to last year and I am not conviced of his talent, 4th would be Bush because of his talent and affordabilty, 5th Smith based strictly on need at CB, 6th Clemons based on affordability and last Jake Long because of his talent level if healthy and position
I voted Chris Clemons. I think he played better last year than previous years and he stayed healthy all 16 games. I also think he will come cheap and won't create more holes in our already spotty secondary. I would also sign bush and hartline if the price was right. No way is Hartline worth more than 5 mil a year and even then that's a gamble. Bush is a playmaker if used correctly but I'm pretty excited for the prospect of Miller, so if he doesn't come cheap then let him walk. Hell starks would be a good re-signing as well but he will be 30 years old by the end of the year so once again it all boils down to that contract.
hartline,starks,bush, smith yes all of them
