Historical Traveller Reviews of Le Meridien Angkor Hotel
Great pool. Good hotel.from mlasser
The pool is dynamite.
There are some food stalls across the street and a small market nearby where you can pickup water and snacks.
Nice and fastfrom Aznzygote
I didn't eat at any of the rest in the hotel because it's so easy to go to town and so much cheaper. I have to said i was very impress with house keeping. When ever i call them for something, they will be knocking in lease than five minutes. The staff was very friendly. This hotel is the closest to the Angkor Wat. The hotel can arrange all the tour for you. But since i already have my own diver, I didn't use their service. I notice there are always tour bus out side of the hotel.
Impressed by Le Meridienfrom buggybugstone
Room: We were upgraded to a corner suite on the second floor which was awesome! A great size room! A sitting room with a sofa, chair, tv and dvd player. We never even needed the dvd player as the hotel has two free movie channels that always seemed to be playing good films. The room was very elegant and spacious. We were facing the hotel entrance but never heard a peep of traffic or people. Nice white duvet with asian inspired colorful pillows. A crisp asian/elegance throughout the room. Also a tv in the bedroom. We loved getting three apples placed in our room each day and 3 petite fours each evening. The bathroom was very cool, large black tiles with a sparkle-sheen to them. sounds strange but very chic..a nice refreshing difference from the typical marble bathrooms most hotels have. The shower head comes right off so you can spray any part of you or just keep it up as a traditional head. There is no ironing board but they are happen to deliver one in a speedy manner.
Bar: The Naga bar ( think is the name) was pretty slick. The bartenders english could be better but he made up for it in his genuine desire to please us. Do not order a bloody Mary becasue they do not have olives, celery salt or horsradish. They do have the largest draft beers I have seen in a while. You cna also watch CNN while yo ulounge around on the couch in there.
Pool: Very nice to look at, very unique, but a lot of bugs in the pool which kept me from doing anything but jumping in for a moment. The lounge chairs are nice as well as the cabanas. The pool food is just ok, but the bartenders are easy to please and are happy to re-make your drink if you have a complaint.
The spa is gorgeous, the gym is tiny and could be a lot better with more equipment...but it will let you get done the basics that you'll need.
Tour Guide: They will happily set you up with a tour guid and car to angkor wat for $50 a day, $25 for car and $25 for guide, but the guide gets about only 20% of the fee. If there is anyway you can hire the guide without the hotel, please do and contribute to the cambodian economy and not more to Starwood Hotels and resorts.
All empoyees that we encountered were pleasant, professional and seemed eager and happy to make our stay enjoyable.
We never stay at le mereidien but will definitely check it out in other cities. A HUGE reccomendation for this hotel. Great location!
Mismanagedfrom zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Excellent Hotelfrom nddagwood
Great Location for Exploring Angkor Watfrom trvlmnky
The location is terrific, close to the ruins at Angkor Wat and a quick drive to walk around Siem Reap. There is a concert hall next door, and it was great to sit outside and listen to the music (and see many Cambodian families doing the same). A market is across the street, if you want to grab a baguette in between sight-seeing. Also, the children's hospital is a few buildings down, and passing all of the families waiting for treatment offered some very real insight into what life is like for many Cambodians.
The hotel very well run (we had absolutely no communication problems) and the staff was both friendly and helpful. The rooms are of a nice size with good amenities, including complimentary late-afternoon sweets (we were upgraded, so not sure how the regular standard rooms are). The pool area is large and got great sun - while it's Khmer-theme was a little cheezy, it was also kind of fun. We ate in the Italian restaurant the night we checked in, and it was really delicious!
This hotel is part of a very well-run chain, so it will feel familiar to that end. It is not a boutique-hotel experience, but it was a great place to come back to at the end of long, hot days and a very nice pool to sit out at.
ve stayed in!!!from char645
Second Visit Even Better Than the First!from alaskaitaly
I've just completed another week stay in Siem Reap and the Le Meridien Angkor. I can honestly say that I didn't want to leave!
Two friends joined me for the first three days of my one week stay. We were picked up at the airport in an air-conditioned vehicle, met at the front desk with a welcome drink and cold cloth and extremely easy check-in. We were shown to our rooms by the Guest Relations Manager.
The rooms are beautiful Khmer style-wood floors-large bathrooms with tub and separate shower, plenty of closet and drawer space, safe, small fridge/mini-bar, water kettle and misc. teas. Large television screen with many programs in English including news CNN, BBC, HBO, Hallmark, etc. Side of the bed controls for lights, clock and air conditioning are convenient.
I appreciated the high quality shampoo, conditioner, orange soaps and lotions.
The housekeeping staff were excellent during my stay. I sent many items out for laundering - very pleased!
The breakfast (which I wrote about for my February review) is still great! I found the service in the dining room to be much improved on this trip and the room service menu has been "tweeked" with a variety of better priced items.
They have a good Cambodian dance show a few times a week that includes a dinner that was quite entertaining.
Each day, a fruit plate was put into the room and a smaller plate of some sort of sweet in mid-afternoon.
This trip I took advantage of the exercise room (small but well equipped) and the massage/spa. I had two great massages (East-West Fusion). The pool is beautiful surrounded by smaller pools of lotus flowers.
The staff were helpful and genuinely eager to please. Mr. Maky, the conceirge, is just as wonderful at his job and does it with a huge smile.
On the first day, my friends and I hired a car and driver to take us to the sacred mountain. On the way back we were in a head-on car accident.
Fortunately, none of us were seriously injured-cuts and bumps. When the General Manager of the hotel, Mr. Mudry, was told of our accident, he had a doctor sent to the room and called each of our rooms to make sure we were doing ok and if there was anything that we needed.
We found the General Manager's presence to be friendly, vigilent as to the needs of his guests - far more approachable than I have found in most other hotels.
He also seemed quite sincere in his inquiries into our concerns and comments about his hotel and its staff.
What I would like to see? Breakfast served till 10:30 a.m. (I'm not an early riser) - lemongrass iced tea served before the massages (presently they change the type everyday) or offer a choice - better reading light next to the bed - DVD player in the room would be a nice luxury item - free WIFI useage for those of us who have hauled the extra weight of our laptops clear across the world -
Was ok !!!from cervia
Very nice staff. Swimming pool area wonderful. Rooms
ok. Massage below average.
Great hotel, Great Servicefrom doctored
Top Local Tips for Siem Reap
Car, Driver and Tour Guide for the Temples for $65USD The hotel arranged a full day private tour for our party for $65. It was a very good deal and our guide was excellent and charming. We had to pay another $20USD each for a day pass to the ruins.
Angkor Wat Visit at sunrise and experience and elephant ride
Getting a driver for your stay... When you arrive at the Siem Reap airport, getting a taxi to your hotel is hassle free. You go the the taxi counter, pay your USD5, then you get assigned a taxi driver. Most of them speak English to some level and are very friendly. The taxi drivers are also available to drive you around for the entire length of your stay. The going rate is USD25 per day. It is common practice that the driver that takes you to your hotel is also available to drive you around for the rest of your stay. It's good to be cautious, but this is not a scam. They don't expect payment until your last day, so it's a win win situation.

Phytosanitary Barrier
Japan currently prohibits the importation of pears from the U.S. due to alleged concerns regarding the bacterial disease fire blight. Japan is concerned that this bacterial plant disease might be transmitted to the country's domestic crops. The U.S. position is that mature, symptomless fruit produced under commercial conditions have not been shown to transmit the disease. Research substantiating the U.S. position was completed in 2007 and is in the hands of USDA/APHIS.
Potential Increase in Exports
Resolving the phytosanitary barrier in Japan would result in an increase of less than $5 million in sales.
Pesticide Maximum Residue Level Sanction Policy
During the past year the U.S. Trade Representative has met with Japanese officials to negotiate changes in the penalty structure for MRL violations. Penalties for violations include initially elevated inspection rates for shippers of the commodity that can be expanded to 100 percent hold and test for the entire commodity group if a second violation occurs. The USTR negotiations resulted in a written agreement that provided substantive relief, but following recent MRL violations it is apparent that Japan has decided to ignore that agreement. We urge USTR to remain engaged on this important issue with Japan.
Potential Increase in Exports
Reaching agreement on an MRL sanctions policy with Japan will not necessarily increase the amount of exports from the U.S. It will help to reduce risk exposure and maintain access to this $55 million to $82 million annual export market for U.S. cherries.
Phytosanitary Barriers
The first shipments of apples from Washington State to the People's Republic of China occurred in June of 1994. Only Red and Golden Delicious apples may be shipped directly to China. Two of the PRC's phytosanitary barriers described below are neither technically justifiable nor WTO-consistent and should be immediately eliminated.
Fire Blight: U.S. has been seeking access for all varieties of apples since the early 1990s but discussions have been stalled due to China's unfounded concerns regarding the bacterial plant disease fire blight. With the 2005 WTO decision in favor of the U.S. in its case with Japan on fire blight, and the separate case with Japan regarding varietals, China should now allow all varieties of apples entry.
Moreover, China allows market access for all varieties of apples from other countries, including New Zealand, even though such countries have fire blight.

U Penn's Wharton School, Lauder Institute to Feature New Dual-Degree Global Program for Multilingual Students
Feb 11, 2013 | 0 comments
The University of Pennsylvania's Lauder Institute, together with the Wharton School, will train MBA/MAs in politics, economics, business and culture as part of a new dual-degree Global Program, according to a recent article in Wharton Magazine.
The new Global Program is like a "startup" within the Lauder Institute, which for 30 years has provided students with a unique opportunity to develop deep regional expertise and strong linguistic skills, according to Wharton Magazine. Students in this new dual-degree program will study still-evolving aspects of the global political and economic system, such as international capital flows, the rise of sovereign wealth funds and China's emerging dominance.
Professor Regina Abrami will direct the new program, which admitted its first three students as part of Round 1 of Wharton's MBA admissions. With Round 2 now underway, Abrami hopes for six to eight students to make up the first Global Program class, which will begin in May 2013.
Abrami, a scholar of China and Vietnam, came to Wharton and Lauder from Harvard Business School (HBS) and is now a senior lecturer in the political science department and a senior fellow in the management department as well as director of the new Global Program. At HBS, she also helped launch globally-focused initiatives, including a "Doing Business in China" elective course and HBS's global immersion programming, through which 400 students participate in 11 country-specific immersions during the winter session.
New coursework designed for the Global Program will include classes on intercultural negotiations, international trade and the international legal order, which will take the place of language classes Lauder students take as part of that school's other tracks. Global Program students will be expected to enter the program proficient in two languages – another departure from the traditional Lauder candidate, who develops skills in one language.
All Lauder students will be eligible to take Global Program classes as electives, and dual-degree MA/MBA students in the program will complete Lauder's required core curriculum as well as its summer-long immersion programming.
"Lauder is unlike anything else out there, and the Global Program also promises to be extraordinarily unique," Abrami told Wharton Magazine.

n.a.stroud About equal distances between the beach and the main strip/shopping area (few minutes walk to each). You have to buy a ticket for the beach at reception, but that's cheaper than buying it on the beach. Staff pretty much left us to ourselves - though one did sort out a fantastic dive trip for me so can't complain. Room had fridge/tv/AC/shower but it wasn't anything special. It was by far the most expensive place we stayed but probably the worst - it has facilities but lacks atmosphere.

Clean rooms (freshly painted), good breakfast, hot water, free WiFi, convenient location in the old Hurghada for a very cheap price. And most of all: very friendly and helpful staff that provided us with good ideas of things to do and cheap packages.

SELinux is on in Fedora, but not in other linux distributions. This does not mean that they are less ecure. SELinux makes some assumptions for a linux system that prevents ISPConfig on running.
If you want to have a really secure webserver i recommend not to install PHP or perl or any other scripting language for webpages as most hacks currently are done trough unsecure scripts. Then do not install any management software except an SSH server on a non common port and remove all compilers from your system.

Prophecy of 7 picked up by Disney/Hyperion!Hey guys,I haven't written any journals in a while due to college assignments and life. But I thought I would just write a short journal about a really amazing thing happening a few months ago. I received an email from Joann Hill who is the art director of Disney/Hyperion publishing, and she said that they wanted to buy the rights from my 'Prophecy of 7' painting.Apparently they saw this edit of my painting, in which someone has slapped on the title 'Blood of Olympus' and they now wanted to use it for a poster accompanying the final book to sold in select stores like Walmart.

SKIPPING WITH HAPPINESStoday has been the best day.why:i went to my Independent Research: Drawing class, which i signed up for late. so i didn't know quite what to expect, having not been to class yet. the only thing my professor told me to bring to class was a drawing i'd worked on or completed lately...do you realize how vague that is? my mind went into overdrive. should i bring a large one that was more conceptual? should i grab a still-life? a comic? i was losing it. but then my dad, who is good friend with my professor, having been a grad student under his teaching, tells me to show my professor what i LIKE to do.thus, i take the Hunger Games drawing i've been coloring, and a completed Blaire design.i was so embarrassed when i showed him my cartoons, that i started rambling about how i'd like to go into animation, and he stops me. he asks me what materials i need to do that. i kinda freeze, cause i wasn't anticipating that at all. but then i spit out that i hadn't thought about anything spec

Health Tip: Develop Good Sleep Habits
(HealthDay News) -- To get a good night's sleep, it's important to develop healthy sleep habits and stick to them each night.
The National Sleep Foundation recommends these healthy sleep habits to help you wake up rested each morning:
Establish a regular bedtime and wake-time schedule and follow it every day, even on weekends.
Create a consistent and relaxing bedtime routine, and make sure your bedroom is comfortable, dark and quiet.
Invest in a comfortable mattress and pillows, and only sleep and have sex in your bedroom -- nothing else.
Don't eat within two to three hours of bedtime, and avoid caffeine, alcohol and tobacco before going to sleep.
Exercise regularly, but try to schedule your workout well before bedtime.

On the surface, one might expect that the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1-inch and the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1-inch are the exact same device, with one featuring S-Pen stylus support. What we've learned, however, is that the Galaxy Note is actually a faster device.
As a comparison, the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 features a 1280x800 display, a 1.0GHz dual-core Samsung Exynos Cortex A9, 1GB of RAM, a 3-megapixel rear camera and up to 32GB of internal storage. On the other hand, the Galaxy Note 10.1 features a 1280x800 display, a 1.40GHz dual-core Samsung Exynos Cortex A9, 1GB of RAM, a 3-megapixel rear camera, S-Pen support, Wi-Fi channel bonding for better Wi-Fi performance on supported routers and up to 64GB of internal storage.
While both new tablets run Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, the Galaxy Note 10.1 is equipped with Samsung's TouchWiz UI and a number of optimizations for the S-Pen, including shortcuts to bring up the S-Notes app. Based on initial reports, the tablet "feels" like a Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 fused with Galaxy Note functionality. As stated best by The Verge, however, "the hard task for Samsung will be to convince the iPad-buying public that what they really want in a tablet is a stylus."

Topic Outline
Postmenopausal bleeding (PMB) refers to any uterine bleeding in a menopausal woman (other than the expected cyclic bleeding that occurs in women taking sequential postmenopausal hormone therapy). It accounts for about 5 percent of office gynecology visits [1].
All postmenopausal women with unexpected uterine bleeding patients should be evaluated for endometrial carcinoma since this potentially lethal disease will be the cause of bleeding in approximately 10 percent (range 1 to 25 percent, depending upon risk factors) [2]. However, the most common cause of bleeding in these women is atrophy of the vaginal mucosa or endometrium [3]. In the early menopausal years, endometrial hyperplasia, polyps, and submucosal fibroids are also common etiologies [4].
The evaluation of postmenopausal women with vaginal bleeding will be reviewed here. Evaluation and management of premenopausal women with vaginal bleeding is discussed separately. (See "Differential diagnosis of genital tract bleeding in women" and "Approach to abnormal uterine bleeding in nonpregnant reproductive-age women".)
Vaginal bleeding occurs in approximately 4 to 11 percent of postmenopausal women [5-8]. The incidence of bleeding appears to correlate with time since menopause, with the likelihood of bleeding decreasing over time. As an example in a study that asked 271 postmenopausal women to complete a daily record, the estimated incidence of bleeding fell from 409/1000 person-years immediately after the first 12 months of amenorrhea following menopause to 42/1000 person-years more than three years after menopause [5].
Abnormal bleeding noted in the genital area is usually attributed to an intrauterine source, but may actually arise from the cervix, vagina, vulva, or fallopian tubes, or be related to ovarian pathology. The origin of bleeding can also involve nongynecologic sites, such as the urethra, bladder, and rectum/bowel. Cervical stenosis may inhibit egress of blood from the uterine cavity; hematometra may result.

Wayne's World
There wasn't a ton in Wayne's World that I felt like I identified with. I couldn't quite tell how old the guys were and so living with one's parents didn't yet seem to be as "bogus and sad†as Wayne insisted. But one part of the movie did make an indelible print on my memory and that thing was The Gasworks, the rock club where Wayne first meets Cassandra. Lazy, cursory research shows that The Gasworks is a now-defunct rock club in Myers's beloved hometown of Toronto. or something. When I first watched Wayne's World though, I just assumed that that's where teenagers hung out: heavy metal clubs with fire spewing from the roof with bunch of drunken hooligans in vomit-soaked band t-shirts. I wasn't much into metal, dirty hair or vomit, and at eleven had yet to take my first REAL drink but "Oh well!†I thought. "This is what I'll like doing in 7 to 10 years!â€
Empire Records
If the movies we watch, along with our food and drink, made up our genetic code (they do not), my sister's body would have been 30% Shark Bites, 10% orange juice and 60% "The Empire.†This movie was on in my house countless times and thus, a primer on 'teenz. Renee Zellweger was the slut friend I knew I'd have (check!), Robin Tunney was the depresso friend I knew I also must have (check kiiiiinda), Ethan Embry was the wacky asexual guy you partied with and of course my own sister's betrothed, Johnny Whitworth was the sensitive artiste in a bowling shirt whose every hair-flip awakened yet another molecule in your vagina. This movie taught me that working at a job just means going to a place besides school to stand around, goof off with your friends, do nothing and get paid. Word.
If you walked up to me on the street, punched me in the head and yelled "The 90s!†the first thing I would think of was Liv Tyler's blue mohair sweater and yellow and blue plaid kilt with combat boots. Guys. I'm totally gonna dress like that sophomore year.
Charles in Charge
I watched this show on and off during m'tween years, and while it was pretty boring and whatever, it made a very clear point about teenage girls and what one must look like to achieve any degree of happiness:
Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead
Aside from my sister and my friend Trish, virtually no one remembers this show, which could be why its basically impossible to find screencaps. Apparently it was on during the time when everyone else in my generation was off riding bikes, climbing trees, baking fudge with their grandma, knitting socks for the soldiers in The Great War and gathering berries and wildflowers in the glen. I meanwhile, was parked on the couch drinking Dr. Pepper and watching this Canadian teen drama unfold. Alcoholism, interracial romance, your parents divorce, stealing and selling a VCR, betrayal, secrets and a wardrobe that was apparently repurposed later for the girlfriends of Seinfeld. The best character of all was conniving Candian Brooke, who's hair looked like the side of a roof.
Also Ry-Reyn's in it you guys, as Billy, Courtney's Troubled, Bullying Younger Brother!
What were the shows/movies that shaped YOUR perceptions of teendom, hmm?

The Perfect Server - CentOS 6.0 x86_64 [ISPConfig 2] - Page 3
Submitted by falko (Contact Author) (Forums) on Sun, 2011-08-28 18:06. ::
4 Adjust /etc/hosts
Next we edit /etc/hosts. Make it look like this:
vi /etc/hosts
5 Configure The Firewall
(You can skip this chapter if you have already disabled the firewall at the end of the basic system installation.)
I want to install ISPConfig at the end of this tutorial which comes with its own firewall. That's why I disable the default CentOS firewall now. Of course, you are free to leave it on and configure it to your needs (but then you shouldn't use any other firewall later on as it will most probably interfere with the CentOS firewall).
and disable the firewall.
To check that the firewall has really been disabled, you can run
iptables -L
afterwards. The output should look like this:
[root@server1 ~]# iptables -L
6 Disable SELinux
SELinux is a security extension of CentOS that should provide extended security. In my opinion you don't need it to configure a secure system, and it usually causes more problems than advantages (think of it after you have done a week of trouble-shooting because some service wasn't working as expected, and then you find out that everything was ok, only SELinux was causing the problem). Therefore I disable it (this is a must if you want to install ISPConfig later on).
Edit /etc/selinux/config and set SELINUX=disabled:
vi /etc/selinux/config
Afterwards we must reboot the system:
7 Install Some Software
First we import the GPG keys for software packages:
rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY*
Then we update our existing packages on the system:
yum update
Now we install some software packages that are needed later on:
yum install fetchmail wget bzip2 unzip zip nmap openssl lynx fileutils gcc gcc-c++ telnet flex
8 Quota
(If you have chosen a different partitioning scheme than I did, you must adjust this chapter so that quota applies to the partitions where you need it.)
To install quota, we run this command:
yum install quota
Edit /etc/fstab and add ,usrjquota=aquota.user,grpjquota=aquota.group,jqfmt=vfsv0 to the / partition (/dev/mapper/vg_server1-lv_root):
vi /etc/fstab
Then run
mount -o remount /
quotacheck -avugm
to enable quota.
9 Install A Chrooted DNS Server (BIND9)
To install a chrooted BIND9, we do this:
yum install bind-chroot
Then do this:
chmod 755 /var/named/
BIND will run in a chroot jail under /var/named/chroot/var/named/. I will use ISPConfig to configure BIND (zones, etc.).

I have a new favorite drink that I am totally hooked on. From the first time I saw Cinnamon Affogatos in the Desserts in Jars cookbook, I knew I had to try this delicacy. I think it was the Cinnamon Gelato that first attracted me. The taste of caramel and coffee is just heavenly and often makes me question if this is really a drink or is it a dessert. I think I like to refer to Cinnamon Affogatos as a drink because it sounds better. After all, I couldn't possibly tell all my friends that I am enjoying a dessert every afternoon. Anyone that knows me knows, I am not a dessert lover…. but this drink is just out of this world. Try it and tell me what you think. I bet you will be hooked too.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

What's the Value in Giving Back to Your Facebook Fans?
The whole secret to Facebook success isn't about talking to Facebook users about your cause, it's about getting your biggest fans to talk about your cause.
How difficult this is depends on how well you know your fans! For example, REI posts tons of useful how-to articles for hikers, climbers and campers. They post videos and photos that are truly informative, with no sales pitch. Fans naturally share this content with their friends – many of whom share the same passion for the outdoors!
So where's the value in fans talking about you?
Research shows that consumers trust product recommendations from friends ten times as much as marketing messages that come directly from those recommended brands. Potential donors and volunteers are more likely to donate and volunteer if they hear about you from a friend who loves your organization.
Focusing 100% on what your fans truly want (not what you think they want) encourages recommendations about your organization!

My mother got diagnosed with breast cancer; again. This time, it was stage 4 and we found ourselves back in the hospitals, the chemotherapy treatments, being bald and throwing up all night. After her first round of chemo we found out she was resistant to the drugs. Her tumor had tripled in size in three months and I was scared.
The only remedy I knew, was that of a animal; so I found Velcro. Vel was a tiny black Schnoodle that fit perfectly into the crook of her arm. The two became inseparable.
Until one morning when the phone rang and my mother screamed, "A coyote's got Velcro!"
I tore out of bed from my mother's guesthouse and ran across the lawn in desperation.
My heart pounded through my chest as I gasped, "Vel, Vel, Vel". Then, through the branches, I saw a coyote peer through the trees. I chased him through the woods, my bare feet shred from the thorns underfoot. Bloodied and barely alive, I found Velcro, again.
The vets said that even if she survived the surgeries the infections would most likely kill her.
After two weeks in ICU with: three surgeries, one blood transfusion, puncture wounds over 90% of her body, ears ripped off and sewn back on, a neck and abdomen pieced back together and drains protruding from her skull, thighs, back and chest and $12,000 in vet bills, Velcro survived.
And so did my mom.
The photo is of my mother and Velcro while she was in ICU.

Great Insulation
I was very pleasantly surprised with these curtain panels! (I purchased the Chocolate color) Some reviewers said they weren't pleased with the fabric, and it attracted pet hair... which was a concern of mine with my very furry pup! Please know that the fabric is thick, doesn't look cheap, and does NOT attract pet hair. I think they hang nicely, and REALLY keep the cold out, and the heat in... it was a very obvious improvement while sleeping next to a drafty window! I can't recommend these enough. They arrived super-quick, and the price is wonderful for high-quality drapery panels... and yes they do make the bedroom nice and dark! :)Read More
I just received my black out curtain that I ordered in Chocolate. They arrived a bright medium brown, not the color that I was expecting. They are very shiny and attract all duct and pet hair. They do a great job of blocking out the light are are wide enough to only use one panel per window.Read More
Beautiful curtains
I was pleasantly suprised when I recieved my package. I had orderd 2 colors, chocolate brown for the livingrm & blue for my bedroom. Wow, I'm so happy with both. The gromet tops make it so much easier to position & they hang beautifully. The material is so soft & silky. The backs are the same color & I really like this. I couldn't have asked for a better quality of curtain. I will be ordering more for the sliders in the bedroom & livingrm. This definately was a value compared to 'big box stores' that charge 'per panel' & the material doesn't come close to matching these!Read More
Makes about a 20 degree difference in room temp!!!
Great curtain for that late afternoon sun. We could tell a difference in the room temperature within an hour of hanging them! They also make a perfect, dark room for that afternoon nap!!Read More
Cheap looking
I bought these because of the positive reviews, but I am not impressed. The fabric looks cheap--it has a shiny polyester sheen and feels gross to the touch. I am going to return them.Read More
Great room darkening panels!
We ordered an olive green pair to go in my daughter's shabby chic room. We wanted it to be a little darker on one side of the room in the morning, and we didn't want to get too carried away with pink. The olive looks great, and works wonderfully. She has the darkness she likes while trying to sleep, and it's a nice change to having the entire room being pink with flowers.Read More
Awesome product! Highly effective!
I was SO pleasantly surprised at how effective these black out curtains are! I had previously tried curtains from ***, ****, and ****** and ****** and returned them when they were no where near actually blacking out the light from my daughter's room. These curtains are so terrific! My daughter sleeps so much better, especially during her daytime naps, the curtains completely eliminate light in her room. And since her window is only a half-room height, the length on this particular curtain is just perfect, I didn't have to do any hemming. Also, to get two panels for the price of what one would cost at ***, *****, and ****** is excellent value! The color that I chose - eggplant, I think - is also beautiful as is the fabric. I highly recommend this product!Read More
Blackout Curtains
Color was prettier than in pic online. Great quality. Awesome price!Read More
Greatest sleep aid ever!
This curtain worked out perfectly. This bedroom window always was bathed in sunlight, since using these curtains, the room has been much cooler. The blackout portion of this curtain does its job too. It is so much easier to catch a nap in the daytime. Color was rich and quality of material appears to be good. Overall, I'm happy I took a chance on these curtains.Read More
just what I was looking for. Very stylish yet functional. Blocks light perfectly. I am very happy with these curtains and would highly recommend.Read More
Questions & Answers
Do the navy come in 95 length ? Need to match window certain in same room, for sliding glass door?
Hello nikkie58, yes, we offer this in the 95-inch length in the navy color option under item number 12329779. Thank you for shopping with us!
Can you please tell me if these curtains use to be listed as chocolate brown and black instead of brown and onyx. I think these are the curtains I purchased in a longer size but colors were different. Thank you
Thank you for contacting us, bmsw. No, the description should be the same. Please let us know if you have any further questions.
Are these curtains available in an 84" length?
I'd like to order the gray, but need to know is it a dark color or light, and is it more of a slate/pewter tone or a bluish gray?
Thank you for your inquiry, mellison. These curtains are a lighter bluish grey. We try to represent the colors of our products accurately, but unfortunately due to the difference in monitor colors we cannot guarantee that the color will match exactly what you see on your screen. We hope this helps. Thank you for shopping with us.
What color are the grommets for the cobalt and navy drapes? Descripton says bronze, but pix is silver/nickle.
Hi txdonna78, They are antique bronze. Thank you for shopping with us.
My Window is 8 foot wide, how many sets of panels should I order? Also I do not know what a grommet is. What do I need to order to hang them up?
Hello alicianmark, Two (one set) will cover it, but four (two sets) will look fuller. It really just depends on your preferences. These panels are 104 inches wide together.Your window is 96 inches wide and we recommend 2-3 times the width. A grommet is the reinforced circle that the rod goes through to hang the curtain. These grommets will be able to hang on a curtain rod that is 1.5 inches in diameter or smaller. I hope this helps, thanks for shopping with us.
You will need two sets. A grommet is a metal fitting that is on the top of the curtain. A pole type rod is all you need. Just remember that for 8 ft buy a rod with center support.
I would order 4 panels at the minimum. My window is 56" wide and I ordered 2 panels, then purchased two more so I could get more folds while they are closed. a grommet is a round , usually metal ring on which to slide a rod through for easy hanging. The only thing you need to purchase is a rod that will fit through the grommets, which is simple, The grommets on these specific panels are large enough for a medium to large diameter rod. I used a standard rod with pretty finials at the end in oil rubbed bronze to match the hue of the curtains. Good luck and enjoy these panels, I know I do.
I understand that its recommended for the panel width to be 2-3x wider than the window. Since my window is 80", it would seem that I need to order (2) pairs of these. How would I go about installing it? Is there a way to connect these panels together, so that instead of 4 panels, there would now be 2?
Thank you for your question jus2impress. The Grommet Top Thermal Insulated Blackout 64-inch Curtain Pair are 104 inches wide. And they cannot be connected. Have a great day.
If you overlap the two curtains on the rod, you won't be able to tell when one ends and the other begins, unless you look very closely. It works beautifully.
Used one pair on a 70 inch window. They are perfect. Check the width per pair . ( I hates skimpy looking curtains) They were wide enough to extend the curtain rod a few inches on either side of the window. This really helped keep the room dark.
Hello, The width of the window is 59". Would one set of two panels providing 104" in width be sufficient? Thank you.
Thank you for your question luvdriven540i. Yes, we think it would be sufficient to purchase one set of two panels, this also includes tie backs, so you should be ok!! Have a great day.
If you truely are looking for blackout curtains you'd probably be better off going wider width to insure no slivers of light come through.
i have a double window in my son's bedroom that is 72 inches wide in total and 54 inches high. How many panels do I need?
I used two.
I got these for my dad and although the style is a guy look due to the hooks it takes some material away from the actual size of the curtain. He had an 80" opening and we would have needed two sets but he switched to another rod style adn they worked better.
do these panels come any shorter than 64 inches? I need a max length of 40. prefer 36 inches
Hello phoenixgirl123, Unfortunately, we do not. The minimum length we have in any of our curtains or drapes currently is 64 inches. Thank you for shopping with us.
The grommet color says "antique bronze", but when I look through hardware I either see "antique brown" or black. Which one is the closest match to this grommet color?
Thank you for contacting us cascon. The color of the grommet is antique bronze, which looks brownish and not black. Please let us know if you have any further questions.
I ordered the brown panels and the bronze grommets look great with the brown rod we got. All in all, any earth tones will look great
It is a brownish color.
What manufacturer makes these curtains?
Hello colleenarn1, We are unable to disclose the manufacturer of some of our products; however, Overstock.com stands behind every product we sell. When necessary we can contact suppliers if a product issue arises. Thank you for your inquiry.
Hi. I need the turquoise color but it's not available in the drop down. Why is that? And if it's sold out, when will it be restocked? Thanks.
Hello algernonca! I love these panels! Unfortunately, the turquoise color option is currently sold out. Items are restocked as they become available, however we cannot guarantee if/when an item will be restocked. I apologize for the inconvenience. Thanks for shopping with us.
I was trying to order a gray color in the grommet curtains size 64inch. It does not give me that color option when I try to order. I understand that the item is sold out, but will you be getting more in soon. I really need to order them for my room since my bedspread is a pewter color. I love these curtains.
Thank you for your inquiry. Items are restocked as they become available, however we cannot guarantee an Item will be restocked.
Are the grommets pewter colored on the navy panels or bronze I only want pewter or silver.
I'm not sure about that color, but as for the curtains...their GREAT!
Thank you for asking. The grommet ring color is antique bronze.
They are a brownish antique look on all curtains.
They are bronze.
would these work with rods of 3/4 inch diameter?
Yes these will work with a rod that size.
I am very new to curtain shopping, so I really need assistance ASAP. I need curtains for 4 windows (2 in the bedroom and 2 in the living room). A carpenter gave me measurements of 40 X 72. Can you please give me some advice on purchasing some decent, affordable curtains?
For proper fullness, panels should measure two to three times the width of your window. You might also want sheets that are longer to reach the ground but that is your preference.
Will a 5/8" curtain rod work for these? Will they slide easily?
Yes, that size rod will work. They should slide easily.
Where are these made?
These are made in China.

FAQs about Thermal Insulated Curtains
Create privacy and save energy when you buy thermal curtains for your home. They're made of materials that provide a layer of insulation that prevents hot or cold air from entering or escaping a room through a drafty window. While thermal curtains are often made of heavy materials, like cotton or velvet, to regulate the amount of light that comes into the room, you can find curtains in a variety of fabrics that go with any room decor. Learn more about these curtains by reading the answers to frequently asked questions about thermal curtains.
How to Install Blackout Curtains
Blackout curtains can keep a room cool and dark even when it's bright and sunny outside. A completely dark room is a wonderful thing if you have a job that requires you to work all night or even if you just want a dark room for watching a movie when it's light outside. In addition, blackout window treatments help you conserve energy by keeping heat in and cold out or vice versa. You have two choices when it comes to installing blackout curtains: You can buy curtains that come with blackout liners already sewn in, or you can add panels of blackout fabric to the curtains you already own.
How to Measure for Curtains
Curtains add privacy and style to a room, but before you buy a set, you'll need to know which size is right. You'll find that curtains usually come in lengths of 63 inches, 84 inches, 95 inches, 108 inches, and 120 inches. The length you choose will depend on the look that you want as well as the placement of your curtain rod.
How to Hang a Valance and Curtains
Hanging a valance and curtains over your window will add dimension, texture and style to any room. Window curtains with a valance give your window treatments a finished, designer look. If you want to block out light, a valance and full-length blackout panel curtain is your best choice. If you are more interested in decoration and only need to block minimal light, then a valance over sheer curtains is a good choice. It's important to measure the window and decide what type of curtains you want before you buy the curtain hardware. A cafe rod will be sufficient to support a sheer curtain, but you will need a stronger curtain rod to support heavier fabrics such as blackout panels. Also, the larger the window, the sturdier the curtain rod will need to be.

Top 5 Curtain Rods for Formal Living Rooms
Formal living rooms need something more than a standard curtain rod to exude elegance and timelessness. You can have the most luxurious couches and elaborate wall art, but without the right window treatments, the room will still feel bare. The best curtain fabric to hang in living rooms is typically something heavy, with a sheen, like damask or silk. These weighty textiles need equally strong hardware to balance the look.

Tension rods are positioned between two facing surfaces, such as the interior frame of a window or the opposing sides of a shower cubicle.
Tips on Using Cloth Shower Curtains
Shower curtains drastically change the look of a bathroom, and cloth shower curtains can take bath decor from mediocre to magnificent.

Cloth shower curtains have reemerged as one of the most sought after bath products in recent years. While vinyl shower curtains are practical and low cost, a cloth shower curtain is a great choice if you're concerned with making your bathroom a place you love to be.

Recently, Sonics board member Jim Hogan uploaded some content onto deepchip.com (http://www.deepchip.com/items/0511-06.html) that purports to provide unbiased guidance regarding metrics for evaluating network-on-chip technology and interconnect fabrics. I applaud Jim for his analysis of the metrics one should use to evaluate SoC interconnects.
However, in my opinion, his product comparison chart has factual errors with respect to Arteris product capabilities.
First, I would like to address an area where the analysis may be confusing or shallow:
In the PPA row of the chart, Jim Hogan compares Sonics SGN's potential obtainable frequency to his estimates of the frequencies of chips incorporating the silicon-proven Arteris FlexNoC and ARM NIC-400 interconnect fabrics.
Here are some of the problems with the analysis in this row:
I created a separate column in Jim Hogan's original table (appended below) that summarizes Arteris FlexNoC's actual features and characteristics, and also added new rows for Latency and Silicon-Proven product adoption. My additions are in blue.
It's clear that NoC technology is now being adopted by all semiconductor makers creating SoCs with sufficient complexity. And it's even clearer that Arteris FlexNoC is the gold standard for NoC interconnect fabric IP.
But don't trust my word for it: Ask yourself, "Why have Samsung, Qualcomm, TI and Freescale adopted Arteris FlexNoC as their corporate-standard interconnect fabric IP for their most important chips?"
Innovative technology, excellent engineering, a robust product roadmap and customer satisfaction always speak louder than marketing!

Can you believe, until now, I had never made fudge before? I love fudge. So I don't know why I waited so long to try my hand at it! I always thought it was hard to make - it's not. It's easy. Very easy.
So, you want to know what I went and did on my very first time making fudge? I didn't make just one recipe of fudge. No, no. I put two fudge recipes to a head-to-head fudge cook-off battle. See, I'm cooking my way through the family cookbook I published last year for our family. And both my mother-in-law and my sister-in-law put a chocolate fudge recipe in the cookbook. It just seemed like the right thing to do was to put both recipes to the test, rather than picking just one. So, that's what I did.
The two recipes were similar in method. The differences, you ask? Well, my mother-in-law's recipe was made with marshmallows, had a higher ratio of evaporated milk, and a bit lower ratio of chocolate. My sister-in-law's recipe was made with marshmallow creme (as opposed to marshmallows themselves), had a lower ratio of evaporated milk, and a higher ratio of chocolate.
So I set about to whipping up both. And this method is so easy, I was done in no time.
First, bring some sugar, butter, and evaporated milk to a boil and cook it for a bit, stirring constantly, of course.
|Boiling, boiling, boiling ...
Then stir in some chocolate until it's all melted.
Finally, stir in the marshmallow until it's all melty and combined.
|Stirring in the marshmallow
Pour the mixture into a pan, and let it cool to set up. I used an aluminum foil sling in my pans to make removal from the pan (and clean up!) easier.
Here are my two finished products side-by-side ... I made one plain chocolate and the other chocolate-walnut, just for fun. My mother-in-law's is on the left ... my sister-in-law's is on the right. Which do you think won the cook-off battle?
|And the winner is ...
Well, I preferred my mother-in-law's version! ~ the one made with the marshmallows themselves, the higher ratio of evaporated milk, and (surprisingly!) the lower ratio of chocolate. To me, it had a smoother and creamier texture - just the way I like my fudge. The other one was good, too, - but it had a slightly drier, more crumbly texture. So, in my book, marshmallows reign supreme over marshmallow creme!
Looks like I can cross fudge off my cooking & baking bucket list. Well, chocolate fudge anyway. Let's see, there's still peanut butter fudge ... Nutella fudge ... maple walnut fudge ... rocky road fudge ...

18 large marshmallows
1 tsp. vanilla

1. Combine sugar, butter, and evaporated milk in a saucepan; bring to a full rolling boil, stirring constantly. Continue to boil, over medium heat, for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring constantly.
2. Pour in chocolate chips; remove from heat and stir until chocolate chips are melted. Add vanilla and marshmallows. Stir until smooth and all marshmallow is incorporated.

5. Use the edges of the aluminum foil to lift fudge from the pan; cut into small squares.
