Intrinsic Infinity - Antique Diamond Engagement Ring 1.37 c
Elegant in a manner only Edwardian jewelry can possess, a 1.37 carat old European cut diamond in an octagonal and mille-grained setting is the focal point of this luxurious diamond ring. With color of J-K and SI1-2 clarity, the brightness and whiteness of this gem is enhanced by its platinum mount.
Eight is the number of infinity - the octagon - a sign of forever. And whether used as an engagement ring symbolizing endless love - or simply this ring will be forever treasured - this is a superb antique diamond ring.
The refined double arched open tracery work emphasizes the delicacy of the architecture of both the gallery and the overall setting. Lending a splash of color, six rectangular cut sapphires (three on each side) accent the gently tapering shoulders. The eye finds pleasure with the finely engraved foliate-leaf motif and mille-grain edgework throughout.
Hallmarks: "1545" (most likely a manufacturer's reference number)
Condition: Very good; three sapphires have all over wear when viewed with magnification; light wear to the mount as expected with age and use.
Measurements: 5/16 of an inch (0.8 cm) north to south on the hand and rises 1/4 of an inch (0.6 cm) from the finger. Weight of 3.2 grams (2.0 dwt).
Size: US 6-1/4 (UK M; Euro 16.75, 53 mm). Can be easily sized to accommodate most. Ring sizing information.
Date: Circa 1915 - 1920.
Note: All diamond and gemstone weights, color grades and clarity are approximate as the stones have not been removed in order to preserve the integrity of the setting.

"So good! I love that is doesn't have broth so the sodium stays low! To me the end result is a cross between a delicious marinara and traditional Catalan tomato spread made into a soup! So good! I also roasted my garlic before adding to concentrate the flavors more!"

For Whom the Bell Trolls
In or out of mating season, John Bolton in full swollen umbrage is never an edifying spectacle, which makes it all the more puzzling that producers insist on providing this diplomatic reject and rage-aholic with a peddler's license to lie, bluster, and fearmonger. We Americans are now accustomed to the likes of Bolton in full coconut-heaving mode but the Brits have been less exposed to neoconservatism in the malignant raw, and Matthew Carr's review of Bolton's recent perf on the Today show read like a report filed from behind a one-way mirror at a psychiatric clinic:
It wasn't just that Bolton's arguments were bizarre and illogical to the point of insanity, such as his description of [interviewer John] Humphrys and the millionaire philanthrophist George Soros as members of the 'extreme left'. Or his ludicrous assertion that the invasion of Iraq has laid the basis for a more stable and peaceful Middle East. It wasn't even his fanaticism, his arrogance and his utter contempt for the opinions of the non-American world. What is striking about Bolton is the savagery and homicidal intent that shows through the statesmanlike patter.
Frankly, I'm surprised Bolton even mobilized his mustache enough to let a little "statesmanlike patter" breezer under it. He often doesn't bother. One of Bolton's sidekicks without shame is Richard Perle, whose "oily gravitas" produces instant revulsion in those still possessed of a smidgen of human decency.
Perle, Bolton and co often pontificate on the unique moral evil of terrorism. But in their contempt for human life and their appetite for war they are not that different from Osama bin Laden. Unlike Osama, they will not be found in the Hindu Kush carrying a Kalashnikov. They are war trolls, endlessly manipulating the public from TV studios. In this sense they are more like the Roman senators who grew rich and fat while the legions went out to 'create a wasteland and call it peace', as Tacitus once put it.
War trolls, such a magnificently exact epithet. I suppose Carr and innocent viewers of British television should count themselves blessed that they have been spared the blood-curdling exhortations from the grand high exalted Tiresias of War Trolls.
Taking as his scriptural text Paddy Chayefsky's audacious screenplay for The Americanization of Emily (one of my favorite subversions too), Arthur Silber decries that the entire American political and media culture has elevated big talk of war at the expense of the hard, dirty, chaotic, deranged, heartbreaking visual truth. Bolton, Perle, Tiresias, Victor Davis Hanson, and a regiment of supine bloggers are able to rattle their pots and pans together to a deafening din because the sights and sounds of these savage wars of peace are muffled and veiled. In our national maturity...
...we have significantly regressed. Even as our governing class remains absolute in its determination to avoid the central and most fundamental lessons from Vietnam, it has remembered and applied certain lessons very well indeed. The horrors of Iraq, including the slaughter of hundreds of thousands of entirely innocent Iraqis, never even enter the consciousness of most Americans. The dead and horrifically injured Americans are shuffled offstage without ceremony. The great majority of Americans continue in their preferred mode of existence: intellectually ignorant and lazy, spiritually fat and self-satisfied, and completely oblivious to the unimaginable suffering their government inflicts in other parts of the world.
Our national media remain cowed and intimidated, and they refuse, a few honorable exceptions aside, to provide details of the daily and hourly horrors in Iraq to the public. A single major newspaper could provide a noble and invaluable service: if they gave a damn at all about unnecessary death and suffering, they would select the most awful and horrifying picture they could find -- a body with its guts falling out, a bloody corpse shorn of arms and legs, a mutilated face made unrecognizable -- and fill up their entire front page with it, a new one every day. Perhaps after a month or two, enough Americans would demand that their government stop butchering people who never harmed us. [To achieve the sought-for effect, the pictures obviously should be of Iraqis, and only Iraqis. The Iraqis had no choice about our criminal war of aggression, and the endless destruction we have unleashed; the United States did -- and does, even today. We could leave, as we quickly would if we had any remaining decency and humanity, but we won't.]
No, we're going to drag it out, just as we did in Vietnam, pretending our national pride and stature are at stake because too many fools in high places can't bring themselves to admit they were wrong and that history will not absolve them.

Grisons is the largest and easternmost canton of Switzerland.It borders on Liechtenstein to the north, Austria to the north and the east, Italy to the south and southeast, and the cantons of St. Gall to the north west, Canton of Glarus, Uri to the west, and Ticino to the south west. Most of the lands of the canton were once part of a Roman province called Raetia, which was established in 15 BC. The Historical Museum of the Canton of the Grisons, or Raetian Museum, is located in the House Buol in the Old Town of the cantonal capital Chur.
The baroque patrician residence was built 1675 by Baron Paul von Buol zu Strassberg und Rietberg (16341697). He belonged to the ruling classes of the Three Leagues. The interior of the building is accessible through wide flights of stairs. They connect the basement, the ground/ main floor, the passage for carriages, two stately upper floors, the quarters of the servants and the attic. Like in many other Swiss cantons, the founding of the museum was initiated in the waning 19th century by the increasing movement of cultural possessions.
The lawyer, historian and politician Peter Conradin von Planta-Zuoz (18151902) established a foundation for the benefit of a Grisons Museum for Science and Art. The museum opened to the public in the main floor of the House Buol on June 8, 1872. Initially, it held a library, a collection of antiquities and objects of natural history.

Keeping a submit button at the bottom of a line box, aligned with form controls positioned below their label (Figure 1).
If the containing block is not wide enough for the submit button to flow next to the other controls, that button must show at the beginning of the next line box (according to RTL/LTR context) with minimal space above it (Figure 2).
display:inline-block allow us to keep everything in the flow and at the bottom of the line box. This is because
inline-block generates a block box (see 9.2.4 The 'display' property), which itself is flowed as a single inline box, similar to a replaced element (i.e. an image).
We group label and control pairs inside
<form>
  <select></select>

  <select></select>

  <select></select>

 <input />
 </form>
label {display:block;} div { display:inline-block; margin:0 10px 10px 0; *display:inline; zoom:1; }
To position the controls below their associated label, we style the labels with
display:block (without this, these elements would show side-by-side).
Note that styling the labels as block does not make them expand across the form, but only across their parent boxes – which share the same line box. This is because the inside of an inline-block is formatted as a block box, and the box itself is formatted as an inline box.
The two last rules are for IE 6 and 7 which do not support
inline-block. For these browsers, we need to style the
divs as inline and use
zoom. Note that this hack is not as robust as the real thing because a nested (non replaced) element with a layout will break everything, sitting on its own line inside the form. So, unless you plan to give such nested elements a width, do not give them a layout.
Good ole ie6 and 7
Are you sure that inline-block is not supported at all IE6? Perhaps display: inline-block mode is not *fully* supported in IE6.
I remember after three years at a web company writing IE6 compatible sites day in day out, I reconsidered this often overlooked display mode. I had assumed for a long time that it wouldn't work, but it did. I had these buttons that I refined over time which can have variable length text in it, with the usual rounded corner background images an all. I converted them to inline-block and found they worked just fine in IE6, so that helped reduce the CSS a little bit. One very nice side effect was that the buttons would no longer break when the button is crammed in a small table cell; something I couldn't solve with my previous inline + line-height buttons (these were truly flexible buttons for enterprise like websites, which didn't use float and block mode, but could have the background images, with the rounded sides and hover image etc).
Ah, quirksmode says inline-block support on IE6/7 is only for "natural" inline elements. That explains why my inline-block buttons worked in IE6 (they were made of A > SPAN).
In the FORM example above I suspect switching the DIVs to SPANs would make it work in IE6; but then it probably doesn't matter ;-)
This is because display:inline-block gives elements a layout.
As a side note, this value can be used as a layout switch. For example:
a {display:inline-block;}
a {display:inline;}
The above will give the As a layout (in IE).
Note that this would not work if both declarations were used in the same rule.
The tricky part If the containing block is not wide enough for the submit button to flow next to the other controls, that button must show at the beginning of the next line box (according to RTL / LTR context) with minimal space above it (Figure 2). The solution display:inline-block allow us to keep everything in the flow and at the bottom of the line box.
the same approach is also used here http://blog.mozilla.com/webdev/2009/02/20/cross-browser-inline-block/

I've also put something on my site a while ago. It may be a little bit easier to understand as it only attempts to show you a solution for display:inline-block the way the standards consortium defines it.

My son has been hurt more in his 1st 8 months than my daughter was in her 1st 2 years. today he's sporting his first black eye from a fall. If we make it to his 1st birthday without stitches or a broken bone, it will be a miracle. He gives me a heart attack at least once a day! lolReplyDelete
Boys are naturally more gray hair inducing. I was lucky enough to have had a boy first so the girl seemed very easy in comparison. Expect him to climb everything.ReplyDelete
Good luck!!
My son was a climber too. Even with the mattress at the lowest level, he still managed to get out. We finally found a crib tent--mesh with flexible rods the fit like a dome and attach to the crib. He could never climb out after that!ReplyDelete
I had to laugh: how did you know I was eyeing that tall dresser and hoping it was anchored? Too funny.ReplyDelete

|Conversion chart
- 1.50 cup(s) basmati rice, rinsed
- 2 tablespoon(s) plain yogurt
- 3 tablespoon(s) cooking oil
- 2 onions, sliced thin
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon(s) minced fresh ginger
- 3/4 teaspoon(s) dry mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon(s) ground cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon(s) cayenne
- 1/4 teaspoon(s) ground coriander
- 1/8 teaspoon(s) ground cloves
- 2 teaspoon(s) salt
- 1 head cauliflower (about 2 pounds), cut into small florets
- 1 pound(s) baking potatoes (about 2), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice
- 3 tablespoon(s) raisins
- 3 to 4 tablespoons cider or wine vinegar
- 3.50 cup(s) water
- 1/2 cup(s) chopped cilantro
- 4 scallions including green tops, chopped
- Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Stir in the rice; boil until just done, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain and transfer to a large bowl. Let the rice cool slightly and then stir in the yogurt.
- Meanwhile, in a large frying pan, heat the oil over moderate heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger, mustard, cumin, cayenne, coriander, cloves, and 13/4 teaspoons of the salt and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Stir in the cauliflower, potatoes, and raisins and coat with the spices. Add 2 tablespoons of the vinegar and the water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the potatoes are almost tender, about 10 minutes. Uncover, raise the heat, and simmer until almost no liquid remains in the pan, about 10 minutes more.
- Add the cauliflower mixture to the rice. Stir in the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt, 1 tablespoon vinegar, the cilantro, and scallions. Taste the salad and, if necessary, add the remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar.
- Wine Recommendation: Basmati's spice and jasmine aromas suggest a floral Vouvray from France's Loire Valley. You'll need a demi-sec to stand up to the spices here.

WINDSOR, CONN. — A good selection of Americana and Orientalia was offered on April 6 during a two-session auction at Nadeau's. More than 350 lots of Americana crossed the auction block during the morning session, followed by close to 300 lots of Asian items in the afternoon.
"We were pleased with the results," commented auctioneer Ed Nadeau in the days following the sale. "We didn't set the woods on fire, but overall the sale was solid." The auctioneer reported a good crowd making its way through preview in the days leading up to the auction and active bidding from participants throughout both of the sessions.
"The silver did really well," said Nadeau. The auction opened with a Steiff sterling repousse pitcher that listed a provenance of the Connecticut Historical Society and carried an estimate of $400/600. Strong bidding from several in the gallery pushed the piece far past estimate, with it selling at $2,185. A pair of sterling candlesticks with intricately decorated bulbous bases terminating in griffin feet more than tripled estimate, selling at $4,945, while a silver porringer thought to have been by Eighteenth Century Boston maker John Cooney realized $2,070.
Paintings in the auction did well, with two Eric Sloan oils leading the way. "Kids Fishing by 'Just Suits' Red Covered Bridge," Sloan's oil on Masonite, retained an Abercrombie & Fitch label on the verso and was also inscribed "Eric Sloan, New Milford, Conn." The painting, with a classic touch of Sloan folky interpretation, sold at $11,500.
Another oil on Masonite by Sloan, "Morning Sun Rising on Red Covered Bridge," became the top painting of the auction after an active bout of bidding from the telephones and the gallery, bringing $17,250.
A couple of paintings that seemingly sold under the money included a Modernist painting signed illegibly that went out at $460 and a John Bazadona "Still Life with Roses," with a Cooley Gallery label on the verso, selling reasonably at $575.
A couple of weathervanes did well, with a running horse with jockey vane selling at $13,800, while a stag weathervane with gilt surface brought $9,200.
A handsome mahogany tall case clock marked W. Cummens with rocking ship brass works became the top lot of the auction as it sold for $24,150. An Elmer Stennes girandole clock with gilt eagle finial and a scrolling leaf base did well at $4,887.
Furniture brought mixed prices, with a diminutive early cherry Queen Anne highboy selling well. Listing a Phelps-Brown family history, the attractive case piece made $5,175. An early blanket box in salmon-colored paint and decorated with eagles, shields and floral motifs was one of the items that attracted a great deal of presale interest. An attractive folky chest with unusual decoration, it sold for $2,645. Case pieces included a cherry serpentine chest with inlay selling at $2,185. A bold Sheraton mahogany chest with bowed burl veneered front and cookie corners caught the attention of the crowd, bringing $4,255.
A mahogany tilt-top table on tripod base terminating in lion paw feet in the manner of Duncan Phyfe was a sleeper. Estimated at $200/400, the table garnered active bidding and climbed to $4,600. A small tiger maple spice chest on a bracket base also did well. Active bidding from the crowd took the 11-drawer chest to $4,025.
Asian antiques followed the Americana and opened up with a selection of famille rose that sold between $175 and the $690 that was paid for a small covered jar with gold decorated handles. A large sandstone head caught many in the gallery by surprise as it soared past estimates to bring $4,025.
The top lot of the session came as a Chinese silk robe with dragon claw decoration was actively bid by several in the gallery, the telephones and Internet bidders, with the lot finishing at $10,350. Several other robes were included with prices ranging from $2,450 paid for a blue Chinese silk example to $450 for a plain robe with gold ornamentation.
Prices include the buyer's premium charged. For further information. 860-246-2444 or www.nadeausauction.com.

Narciso Rodriguez x Kohls: All the Details You Need to Know Now
Last week we learned that Kohls had tapped Narciso Rodriguez for its first high-end partnership. This morning, further details were released, complete with a few pictures from the upcoming line. Here's exactly what's happening:
The brand is going to be the first of many participants (Derek Lam is rumored to be next!) scheduled in the mega chain's new "Design Nation" program—a expensive-label-meets-fast-fashion model similar to what you've seen at H&M, Target and Macy's. The difference, however, is that the company is taking each designer to a city of their choice to gather inspiration. Rodriguez picked Istanbul and spent four days there, visiting museums and shopping bazaars.
"It was a really interesting idea to travel somewhere you had never been to before, and get your inspiration from a place that wouldn't normally be in your comfort zone, bring that back and turn it into a collection," he told WWD about his trip. "I was completely inspired by the people, the city and all the different cultures."
The resulting collection, which is priced in the wallet-friendly $30 to $150 range, is full of vibrant prints and rich textures. The pieces are very different from his signature modrenist designs, but still beautiful. Ultimately, we think this will bring something very new to the collaboration scene: often designers present their newest ideas on the runway which are then watered down and reinvented throughout several seasons. Ideally, "Design Nation" will present shoppers freshly conceived styles, minus the RTW pricetag.
Below are two looks from Istanbul-inspired collection, available early next November. What do you think? Do you like Rodriguez-made outfits with a Turkish spin?

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Google or China, which is bigger?
Google beards Chinese tiger - Times Online
Google's dispute with China over censorship and spying is fascinating on many levels. But one aspect that has been largely overlooked is the sheer scale of the financial sacrifice Google is making by taking its moral stand. In pursuit of their laudable aims, the co-founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page are burning dollar bills on an industrial scale.
I don't doubt there is an element of noble sacrifice here but the millions of profit that Google is willing to forgo is a pittance to the economic damage that not having access to Google will cause the Chinese economy. I can't find the reference quickly, even using Google, but i think Worstall for instance pointed out that of the "profits" that Google creates it only gets to keep a percent or so.
So maybe hardball is the game to play.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) -- Knoxville Police are on the hunt for two men after an attempted robbery and shooting early Sunday morning.
Their target, a taxicab.
Lamont Hardwick, with Fast Taxi Service, told Local 8 News he received a call from two men asking to be picked up from Prestwick Ridge Aparments on Sutherland Avenue.
Shortly after, a taxicab driver went on his way. But when he arrived, there were two guys waiting-- not for a ride-- but an opportunity.
"They flagged him down and got in the side doors, pulled a .45 automatic weapons and demanded his money," Hardwick said. "They tried to get him out of the car. Somehow he slipped back in the car and drove away. "
That's when Hardwick said the two men started shooting at the van.
"A few minutes later, I see him pull in here with both side doors open, bullet holes in the window and side of the vehicle," Hardwick said.
Hardwick said he doesn't think the suspects live at the apartment complex, which is only a few miles from Fast Taxi Service's office.
He said the suspects left emptyhanded, and is grateful the driver escaped with his life.
"He had his angels around him that night," Hardwick said.

Sergio Perez is adamant he is not letting the pressure of becoming a McLaren driver get to him.
The Mexican racer, who is off to McLaren next season having signed a multi-year deal to replace Lewis Hamilton, retired from the previous race in Japan while battling the Brit.
Although Perez pulled off a great move to take a position from Hamilton earlier in the grand prix when he again found himself behind the McLaren driver, the 22-year-old spun off.
"Not really," he said when asked if the pressure of heading to McLaren was getting to him.
"In a way I feel more relaxed because now my future is secure and I am really focused for my team.
"I am not thinking about McLaren at the moment.
"I am fully focused on this year to finish races very high and until the last lap I drive for this team, then I start at McLaren," he said.
"I did a mistake and now I move on. It is normal for people to criticise you after you do a mistake."

after reading some of the negative reviews of this product, i was frightened that the rug would end up looking like rat hair, or something. i also expected it to be incredibly itchy because of the wool. i was pleasantly surprised when i received it today, which by the way was only 2 business days after i had ordered it. the wool is VERY soft. craftsmanship is impressive as well. sure it sheds, but i feel like that is typical of ALL wool (think about it, your winter sweaters shed don't they?). also the value of this rug is incredible. i looked at many other stores before checking overstock, and these rugs ran well into the $300s-$500s, especially for the size. overall much more satisfied than i thought i would be. don't take the negative reviews too seriously, especially since this rug is such a great value.
Just FYI, these rugs are wool and DO shed. They need raked, they need shaken out, and they need special care when having them cleaned. They will last forever, but educate yourself on how to care for them. I adore Flokati, the thicker the better. But they are not "simple." I bought one awhile back from Overstock and I just wanted to let people know that there is a learning curve with them. The one I purchased from Overstock was as fine as any other. Go to a reputable website that sells these exclusively and read up about their care, the weight/thickness issues, etc. THEN you can complain if you think the one you purchased is less than quality.
I was very surprised to get a rug this good on-line, sight unseen. It is very thick, plush and lovely. I have been looking at flokati rugs for years and this is the best I've seen. The wool is super soft. I would not recommend it if you have shedding pets or messy children. I think it would be impossible to get the hair out. Good for adults only in my opinion. Little toys would get lost in the deep fibers and drippy juice boxes would be awful. It slides around easily and does need a pad (which I ordered here today) to keep it in place. It's a beautiful carpet. I am very happy with it.
I love this rug!!! I bought three! I was a little concerned when I first received the rug because it didn't look plush at all. I took a medium bristled brush and gently brushed the rug. This removed the excess hair and opened the fibers right up, making it soft and very plush. I noticed that if I brush the rug often, it removes any dirt or whatever falls into the rug before it falls too deep into the rug making it difficult to remove. I have two small children and I don't have any issues with hairs from the rug getting all over them. This is due to the fact that I make sure I brush it often. It truly is a beautiful rug.
I purchased this for my new grandchild's room. The rug is beautiful, and so very,very soft. I researched the flokati rugs before purchasing.This rug at 2000gm was middle of the line,highest 4000gm. I was very happy to find such a reasonable price for such a high quality rug!
More than hoped for, this Flokati is made in Greece of lovely wool and fits the bill for a casual shabby/chic floor covering: just what I wanted and better than hoped for!
The rug sheds too much and simply can't afford to maintain. It is almost like having a dog that sheds all the time that you have to clean up for all the time. Returned.
This rug is terrible, that's the only way I can put it. All of the has started falling out, there are bare spots within the area of the fabric, and it SMELLS! The fabric looks like the yarn you would buy in a craft store, it's not soft at all. My reccomendation is that you don't spend the ***+ bucks for this, not even close to being worth that price.
The rug itself is very nice appearance wise but it sheds a lot and the texture of the rug is very rough.
A couple of things that should be said first: - This is not fake "fur" so it's not going to be soft like that. It's wool. It feels like wool. It's soft on your feet, and my cats love it, but I probably wouldn't lay on it. But I don't like wool sweaters, so... - Because it's a natural fiber, it gets matted like a natural fiber. Like your dog or your long haired cat if you packed them in plastic and shipped them cross-country (not that you would!). In order for it to looks its best, it needs to be brushed - at least initially. You can use a wire pet brush, but I use one of those rubber Kong groomers, as it does less damage to the fibers while still getting the separation and fluff. - It sheds. And, if my previous flokati (different brand) is any indication, it will forever. It does get less over time, but you will always have some tumbleweeds on your floor or stuck to your socks. Taking all of that into consideration, this is a great rug, for a fantastic price. I ordered the brown to complement the living room color scheme, while hopefully hiding the dirt from traffic much better than the natural color that is currently in place.

Q. We have an ongoing issue with a steel part that is cadmium-plated and then treated with a chemical conversion coating. After a period of time, black spots start to appear on the surface. What is causing this? –M.C.
A. As mentioned above, there are two probable causes for this problem: inadequate rinsing and a porous cadmium deposit. Your final rinse procedure following the plating step should be alternating cold and warm rinses, ending with a warm rinse.
Check your cyanide concentration and make changes to bring the concentration up to specifications.

text: A great maypole tune and dance is Gathering Peascods. Conjecture is that it once was a Maypole dance. I've found that these changes make it perfect: Instead of doubles, siding & arming, do every verse as a grand hey. Each chorus, alternate guys or girls going in first, as is usual in the dance. Keep repeating until the maypole is wrapped. On the pole, it will make a checkered-weave pattern alternating with a spiral pattern. Another fun variation is Half-Hannigan. Substitute a grand hey for the arming. This makes a plain weave pattern on the pole. The simplest way is probably to do a continuous grand hey while the musicians play the music for Trenchmore.

Governor Schwarzenegger's May revise
AP Photo/Rich Pedroncelli
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger discusses his proposed 2010-11 state budget during a news conference in Sacramento, Calif., Friday, Jan. 8, 2010.
It's budget crunch time again. The May revision of the budget hit desks today, and the cuts, as usual, are not pretty. Larry Mantle previews the Governor's announcement today, as Sacramento sets about closing an estimated $19-22 billion budget shortfall. Schwarzenegger may propose eliminating California's Healthy Families program, and will shift 15,000 non-violent felons from state prisons to local jails. He is not expected to announce any new taxes. Are cuts to programs fair and fiscally responsible? How would you plug the budget hole?

"A great, easy recipe. I didn't have any crushed tomatoes, so I made the chowder "New England" style instead by adding about 1/2 cup more cream (for a double recipe), some chicken broth, and some celery and carrots for the second part of the cooking process."
"It was great to find a salmon recipe that used no exotic ingredients, just stuff I had on hand. The only thing I changed was sprinkling on some fresh ground pepper and some coarse Chardonnay Oak smoked salt I had on hand. It was to die for! Had to tear myself away from it! :) Served it with a nice green salad and some white rice."
"A very nice dish - my picky 2 and 4 year olds ate it too! I browned some turkey breasts, chopped them up and added them to make a complete meal."
"I didn't think it really needed the salt. Tasted more salty than sweet, and I think mint sauce should be sweet. So I tried it again without the salt."
"Made it this morning for my boys (3 and 1) - minus the nutmeg. They loved it, and I like that it doesn't contain refined sugar!"
"This is a great recipe. My whole family enjoyed it. I added a split vanilla bean during the simmer phase, for extra flavor. I also substituted Plantation Raw sugar for the dark brown sugar because that's what I had on hand. Had it over pound cake for Cinco de Mayo dinner, then over strawberry pancakes the next morning. Yum!"

Yet I still keep buying and enjoying the books.
When I met the Palladium gang at Gen Con several years ago, they were some of the most enthusiastic and genuinely nice group of industry pros I have met so far. Everyone was more than happy to sign stuff, have their pictures taken, answer questions and just stand around talking. I spent a great deal of time at their booth and their attitudes are what finally got me to pick up Rifts. From there I was hooked on their stuff, have spent a small fortune on books, and even subscribe to Rifter.
The only ones that I would say came close, in my experience, to having the same type of attitude were the gangs at Kenzer and AEG. I have spent a majority of my Gen Con budget at those booths every year since.Geek Gazettehttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6702508936667404812.post-56550797328526092362009-06-24T14:10:39.726-04:002009-06-24T14:10:39.726-04:00i didn't like Eastern Territory at all. i'...i didn't like Eastern Territory at all. i'm not going to get into the whys right now though.

from what i hear, the 1st edition Old Ones has a lot more info on the Timiro Kingdom than the 2nd edition, but the 2nd edition version is still a solid book, and contains the only adventure module i've ever run as a GM (i always design my own adventures/campaigns)

for high level campaigns, the best books for PFRPG are Land of the Damned 1 and 2. not only are there hordes of new monsters, there aren't any (that i recall) reprints, the story is fascinating, and it includes brilliant rules for traversing mountains and surviving in cold weather.
LoD 2 also has a dozen new forms of undead that will make your skin crawl.da Truxhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6702508936667404812.post-76834064816194602882009-06-24T10:40:45.317-04:002009-06-24T10:40:45.317-04:00I'll throw my two cents behind Eastern Territo...I'll throw my two cents behind Eastern Territory, as well. If you're looking for a solid setting from which to run your game, Eastern Territory is a great pickup. It's still pretty wild, with lots of built-in conflict, and has a lot of fully-mapped cities. I'm actually getting the office organized and found my notes for an Eastern campaign that I was all set to run a few years back, but fell through, so I'm feeling especially nostalgic.

I'd take it over Western Empire (although it's a good book as well) for my first "world book" just because the Western Empire setting is less varied in the adventuring opportunities it provides.Jason Richardshttp://email@example.com

By As told by Danielle | Photography by Old South Studios
Posted: Friday, May. 16, 2014
We have been together for seven years now, and of course I was hoping it would come soon! January 7, 2013 was our six-year anniversary. We went out to dinner, had a great night, but no ring or surprise. The next day all my co-workers were shocked it didnt happen. Later that night I got home and Joe cooked me dinner and we decided to watch a movie. Before the movie he popped the question and completely surprised me. He took out some champagne and we celebrated. Now were looking forward to our destination wedding!As told by DanielleDanielle and Joe will be married May 14, 2014.

Oooooh it's so lovely when a blog writer gets feedback to validate the fact that anyone reads material you've written.
It's extra special when anyone takes the time to comment on a post. Last week I received an extraordinarily pleasant surprise when, out of the blue, an editor from MotherEarthNews.com sent me an email saying he really liked my blog and hoped I would write regularly for their website under the area of 'Modern Homesteader'.
I've said yes (of course) despite already feeling stretched so thinly across so many other projects but never mind. I'm really hoping this year I will get some much more serious writing done so having an extra place to publish suits this aim well.
I've now had the first two posts published and received a few nice comments from readers too which is really really great:
A New Blogger's Homesteading Journey Begins
U.S. Homesteading Versus U.K. Smallholding
It's a predominantly US site but with a global audience so I think I will focus my writing on things as they are here in the UK perhaps with British traditional recipes, quaint things we take for granted here etc. I lived for a short time in the States when I was a child so can recall some of the comparisons from then.

Parents could face counseling for kids' curfew violations
BY FRAN SPIELMAN City Hall Reporter /firstname.lastname@example.com April 4, 2013 12:58PM
Guardian Angels on a 12-hour patrol of Magnificent Mile and CTA Red Line in Chicago, Monday, April 1, 2013. | John H. White~Sun-Times
Updated: May 6, 2013 6:22AM
Chicago is "in for a rough summer" with "children taking over" the streets unless something is done to hold parents accountable, a West Side alderman warned Thursday.
Ald. Emma Mitts (37th) vented her fears and frustrations about unruly teens before a City Council committee approved a crackdown on the parents of repeat curfew violators.
Sponsored by West Side Ald. Deborah Graham (29th), the ordinance would refer parents of chronic curfew violators to counseling and empower administrative hearing officers to compel those parents to attend.
Five days after an outbreak of wildings on North Michigan Avenue orchestrated on Facebook and Twitter involving 400 young people, Mitts said it's time to get even tougher.
"Somebody needs to be held accountable for these children. The children are taking over and, if we don't do something, we're in for a rough summer. For the last two days, I'm out here on the street. This one got killed. This one's fighting. That one's fighting. These are kids. They're taking over the streets. They're taking over the restaurants," Mitts said.
"We're constantly saying parents need to be held accountable, but we're just talking. We need to put some teeth in the talk. Otherwise, we're gonna have the children taking over and parents will be sitting at home scared of their children. That's what we have: a lot of parents afraid of these kids. They're not in school. They're out on the street disrespecting everybody and everything. You can't even talk to 'em. . . . These youth are out of control."
Last Saturday's incidents on Michigan Avenue and a separate attack on a CTA Red Line train culminated in the arrest of 25 juveniles and three adults on a sunny and warm day that drew crowds to the Magnificent Mile.
Downtown Ald. Brendan Reilly has argued that Chicago needs an early season surge in police visibility on Michigan Avenue, State Street and the lakefront to reassure visitors and send a message to menacing young thugs bent on bullying and destruction that it's not worth the risk.
On Thursday, Mitts warned that the same problem is plaguing Chicago neighborhoods.
"They dance all over the street [and] in the restaurants, and they're stopping traffic. When you get hundreds of kids doing this type of stuff, where are the parents?" she said. "I don't know if the Police Department is gonna have enough resources to deal with these kids if we don't start putting some stiff penalties for parents to be held accountable for these children as well as the curfew" violations.
Public Safety Committee Chairman Jim Balcer (11th) agreed with Mitts that parents should be held accountable. But Balcer said he was willing to start with Graham's approach.
"Being offered these services instead of putting the . . . hammer down. [Saying], 'Look, we have supportive services here. We have things that can help you,' we can look for issues" that may be causing chronic curfew violations, Balcer said. "If we can save one child from going down the path of destruction and crime, that's important. Instead of incarceration and fines, we have these things we can offer."
Gene Roy, commander of youth investigations for the Chicago Police Department, said the counseling ordinance is aimed at parents struggling with problems such as alcohol and substance abuse and anger management.
"What we're trying to do is provide the parents with the resources so they can improve their parenting skills, address any underlying conditions in the home," Roy said. "The goal is to support the family so that we're seeing the kids stay home and seeing the parents take charge of their respective households."
In 2009, then-Mayor Richard M. Daley turned back the curfew clock by 30 minutes — to 10 p.m. on weekdays and 11 p.m. on weekends for Chicago's 730,000 kids under 17.
Chicago's curfew remained the same until 2011, when it was rolled back even more for kids under 12 — to 8:30 p.m. on weekdays and 9 p.m. on weekends.
At the time, Police Supt. Garry McCarthy vowed to make curfew enforcement a priority after the number of citations issued by Chicago Police dropped steadily — from 23,275 in 2009 to 19,555 in 2010 and 8,398 for the first six months of 2011.
"I have to get tough on my commanders to make sure that they're doing curfew [enforcement] so we don't have young people getting shot late at night," McCarthy said then. "As soon as a 15-year-old is shot at 12 o'clock at night, I want to know what the curfew numbers are in this location in this district."
The earlier curfew for younger kids gave parents who exercise "insufficient control" what Mayor Rahm Emanuel called "three strikes" — fines as high as $500 or community service if their young kids get two curfew citations in a calendar year and up to $1,500 if it happens three times.
"I grew up with a curfew. When the lights on the street went on, you took your tail and made it home and [got] in the house. And that's what I believe is the right policy for the safety and security of our kids," Emanuel said then.
"It doesn't mean that, because you have [curfew], kids are gonna be safe. But, it means that we're aligning good parenting and the laws of the city."

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Ducks provided more drama Thursday night, but this time it wasn't the kind they want to create in the middle of a playoff race.
Jonas Hiller's first start since his recovery from vertigo was disastrous as he gave up three goals on nine shots in less than 12 minutes and the Nashville Predators eventually held on for a 5-4 victory at Bridgestone Arena.
Hiller appeared in his first game since Feb. 13, but the ragged performance figures to renew questions of whether the All-Star is ready to resume his role as the team's lead goalie.
Sergei Kostitsyn scored twice and Nick Spaling added another as the Predators built a 3-0 lead. Ducks coach Randy Carlyle pulled Hiller in favor of Dan Ellis after Kostitsyn scored on a deflection.
"I didn't think he saw the puck," Carlyle said. "I understand his first game back, it's not easy to pull him. In my mind, you don't do that against him. You do it for the rest of the team. That's what I always say."
The Ducks lost for only the third time in 12 games and the end of their four-game winning streak didn't affect their hold on eighth place in the Western Conference as Dallas and Calgary, who are behind them, were idle.
Corey Perry and Teemu Selanne each scored twice as the Ducks rallied but never were able to tie the score as they appeared spent on a quick turnaround from their emotional overtime victory Wednesday in Dallas.
"It's always tough after big wins," Ducks captain Ryan Getzlaf said. "Especially when you're going on back-to-backs. You don't have that chance to re-focus very well. We proved that tonight in the first period."
Carlyle offered a harsher assessment for the lack of urgency despite another comeback that saw Selanne and Perry combine for three goals in the final 10:21 to make it close.
"We've played back to backs all year," he said. "We had to have a better effort, specifically in the early going. I felt that we had too many passengers tonight in that department."
Jordin Tootoo and David Legwand also scored for Nashville, which moved into fifth with 90 points.

Introduction The life expectancy for adults with developmental disabilities (DD) is now within 5 years of the general population. This has resulted in an increased frequency of death from age related illnesses such as cancer, heart disease, and chronic lung disease. This Fast Fact will review special issues in the care of developmentally disabled people with life-limiting diseases. Fast Fact #193 will discuss decision making around life-threatening diseases for adults with DD.
Background Adults with DD may be defined as persons with impaired social functioning and decreased ability (mild to profound) to comprehend new or complex information or to learn new skills. These disabilities begin prior to age 18. Examples include people with autism, Down syndrome, and cerebral palsy associated mental retardation. During the past decades there has been a move towards decreased institutionalization with mainstreaming of persons with DD to the community. Home care is often provided by elderly parents. Community housing may be supervised by individuals with little familiarity with the patient.

1st candidate announces for Alabama state auditor
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — The race for state auditor in 2014 has begun.
Adam Thompson, Alabama's deputy secretary of state, announced Wednesday that he will run as a Republican for auditor. The current auditor, Samantha Shaw, has served two terms and can't run again. Shaw said Wednesday she doesn't plan to seek any office in 2014 and will help her husband, Greg Shaw, with his re-election campaign for the Alabama Supreme Court.
Thompson worked in the state auditor's office when Beth Chapman held the post and then worked with her when she became secretary of state.
The auditor's office makes sure state agencies keep up with their property, ranging from laptop computers to heavy equipment. Thompson said that if elected, he plans to put the state's property database online.

I have had the great pleasure of working with some of the greatest angel investors around, but the New Dominion Angels (NDA) are among the best. They have excellent deal flow, they select good candidates, the do their homework on due diligence and while they don't always say YES, they believe in a quick NO and don't drag things on forever and when they do say YES, as they have 3 time now in the last 2 years, they expedite funding quickly. It is a great group and I am proud to be a member. Thanks Mike and Frank.
