Congratulations to Carol and Noreen, the winners of last weeks Monday Give-Away. We at Warm Biscuit look forward to making a personalized pencil case for them! We hope it helps their kids stay organized this school year.
Following in line with our fabric finds of last week, our give-away this time focuses on the upcoming holiday--Halloween! I do just love this holiday; the candy, the costumes, the parties, the spooky decorations...there is just so much to get excited about.
Perhaps its because it is the first holiday of the season, but I remember as a kid that I always anticipated Halloween with a lot of excitement. Not only was it hard to wait to don my new costume, but I was also very eager to bob for apples, take a whack at a pinata, and join my friends on a walk around the neighborhood to collect a bag full of chocolate and candies.
This week Warm Biscuit Bedding Co. is going to give away two personalized Halloween trick-or-treat bags! These bags are super cute, and any kid is sure to love them. There is a bag with ghost, a witch, a pumpkin, and a scaredy cat. Each personalized bag is hand-stitched with cut-out felt accents and soft, comfy handles.
Here's how to enter the give-away to win one of these personalized Halloween trick-or-treat bags:
1. Leave a comment on either your favorite Halloween tradition or candy.
2. Mention how you found this site
3. Check out the Warm Biscuit Bedding Co. to see what other kinds of Halloween fabrics and goodies are offered.
4. Make sure I can contact you! Either leave an email address in your comment, or make sure that you have contact information on your blog profile.
You can receive an extra entry towards this giveaway if you link to this give-away in your blog and put that link in your comment.
The give-away is open for entries until Sunday, September 13th, at 11:59PM. Winners will be chosen at random, and emailed Monday morning. Good luck!
Note: At this time, the Warm Biscuit Bedding Co. cannot ship give-away items internationally. They apologize for the inconvenience to all of you great people living outside of the U.S.

My favorite Halloween candy is Candy Corn-yum! :)

I love the Green Gingham fabric at Warm Biscuit!
My daughter turned 2 in the spring, so she never used to need a bag to trick or treat with. One of these would be great for her this year! (I am partial to the pumpkin, but they are all cute.)

As soon as we finished trick or treating we always dump out our bags and trade the candy the we don't like. If no one liked the candy we would trade it for candy we were giving out.
I have you on my favorites list.

When I was a girl people used to invite you into their homes for trick or treat. They would have homemade decorated cookies, warm cider and donuts. My favorite candy was the peanut butter chews. I would eat all of my candy up and my sister would still have hers into christmas.

When I was younger we would always watch the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown as a family... now that my daughter is getting a bit older, I can't wait to do the same with her!!

My urban neighborhood has a Halloween parade down the main avenue, and most of the stores welcome trick or treaters. This makes a community event, and a safe (and easy) way to trick or treat in a big city with lots of apartments.

I love anything chocolate and PB!! Last year for my daughter's first Halloween, I hollowed out a pumpkin and cut a hole in the top and two holes in the front. I put her inside and it made for a funny and adorable greeting card. Not sure she'll fit into a pumpkin this year but definitely something to do with the next one! m_huston(at)hotmail(dot)com

Ooh, I love Halloween! I've been following your blog for a while now, and have your button on mine.
My favorite things about Halloween is the costumes and the cooler weather. And my favorite candy is anything with caramel--Twix, milky way, etc.
I love your Halloween door decor; it looks charmingly old-fashioned. The personalized plate set is lovely too.

I have to say that my favorite Halloween tradition is sharing a bag of Candy Corn with my family because the first time my husband really talked to me was when he offered me some of his Candy corn from the huge bag he was enjoying. Now, we have fun combining the trick-or-treat booty of our seven kids (and sneaking some of the good stuff for ourselves) so there isn't any fighting. Have loved Warm Biscuit Co. for years, the nostalgic feel is fun and comfortable. email@example.com

I love to go trick-or-treating downtown in the college town where I grew up. I went as a child, and now we take my daughter. We probably won't let her eat that much of the candy, but it'll sure be fun to show off her Halloween costume! She's going to be a witch.

Bulls' Kirk Hinrich out for Game 5 vs. Nets
BY SEAN JENSEN email@example.com April 29, 2013 9:42AM
Updated: April 29, 2013 6:37PM
NEW YORK – Bulls starting point guard Kirk Hinrich will not play in Game 5 against the Brooklyn Nets tonight at the Barclays Center because of a left calf injury.
Hinrich, who played a game-high 59 minutes in Saturday's triple-overtime Bulls win, arrived at his team's morning practice with a black walking boot on his left foot. He said he couldn't put any weight on it this morning.
Asked about missing Game 5, Hinrich said, "Anytime it's hard, but especially in the playoffs, because that's what you look forward to all year.
"It's going to be hard to sit out and watch."
The question is for how long.
If the Bulls, who lead the series 3-1, win tonight, they'll turn their attention to the Miami Heat, which swept the Milwaukee Bucks Sunday. The first game against the Heat would in Miami, most likely on Saturday.
If the Bulls lose, though, they'll return to the United Center for Game 6 Thursday night. If the Nets win that one, then Game 7 will be at the Barclays Center on Saturday.
Asked when he could return, Hinrich said, "I don't know.
"I wish I could tell you. Treat it like crazy, do what they tell me to do. Hopefully I don't have to sit out more than one game."
Hinrich said he suffered the injury in the first half and admitted it was "definitely bother me the whole second half."
"But the fact that I didn't stop, I was able to keep moving. It just went downhill after the game and overnight," he said.
What does the injury prevent him from doing on the court?
"It's everything. It's preventing me from walking right now," he said. "So I'm going to stay after it with the medical staff, treatments around the clock, and hopefully it'll improve."
Hinrich said he didn't make the injury worse by playing the second half and three overtimes. He finished the Bulls' 142-134 victory with 18 points, 14 assists, four rebounds and three steals.
Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau wouldn't say who would start in Hinrich's place. But the most likely bet is Nate Robinson, who scored a game-high 34 points Saturday.
Thibodeau also ruled Derrick Rose out for tonight's game.
"Everyone else is good," he said.
Hinrich has been a standout in this series, both running the point and playing defense on Nets All-Star Deron Williams. But Thibodeau said the Bulls can still close out the Nets tonight.
"It's what he's done all year," he said. "The way he runs the team, he's a two-way player, plays great defense, knows how to run the team, great leader. He's had a terrific season for us, but we also feel like we have more than enough to win here.''

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Lila, a Cincinnati Rat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Rat for sale in Cincinnati, or seeking a Rat from a breeder in Cincinnati.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Cincinnati already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Cincinnati breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Rat breeders who help with Rat rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Cincinnati paves the way for another one to be saved.

On iOS, the difference is essentially meaningless,
Not a bit.
The difference is profound. There's more at stake here than how revenue is or is not reported.
A freemium model favors a very different class of application than we have heretofore seen.
It favors, strongly, applications which can plausibly invent some kind of "consumable" that consumers will tolerate. And pay for.
"Freemium" only partly solves the first dollar problem. You do get a lot more downloads, but you have to provide some amount of non-crippled function or they just toss you aside. So, to get paid, you have to have a "consumable" that makes sense -- that people are willing to pay for. On top of the base line function, which still must be good.
Once you do get someone to "convert" -- to start making payments -- you can get a lot more than a buck, typically, over time. But, because you don't get everyone, the fraction is what really determines the revenue, in the end.
And, if the logic if your would-be app doesn't have a plausible consumable? Then you might get downloaded, but you don't get much revenue, except maybe from ads. For pay exists, but the message says "it's harder here". So, the market favors "consumables" independent of what might otherwise be the value of the app, because consumer expectations are either "free" or "freemium".
By contrast, in a traditional PC or gaming world, you tend to get paid up front if you get paid at all (you take "first dollar" on head on). It still seems, from what I can detect, a stronger model if you can establish it (it also explains why there are so many sequels to games or even utilities like Corel Draw). That's even after you account for the cost of retail distribution (still true the last several times I looked at EA's financials, for instance).
We're in a very different world here and only certain kinds of applications are favored. If you were a business and had some creativity, which would you choose? A useful utility with no notion of consumables, or a clever game that (e.g.) because of RPG considerations, has "stuff" you can sell to your gaming "partners" / participants and give the game itself away?
The market is clearly signalling it wants more of the latter than the former. In the up front world, a games versus utility split may well happen, but the financial model doesn't put its thumb on the scale quite so heavily.

Respected D.C. judge points out ties to Jesse Sr.

When U.S. District Judge Robert Wilkins supported the Rev. Jesse Jackson's campaign for president, he likely never imagined he might one day send the reverend's namesake son to prison.
Now 25 years later, that might be a very real possibility.
On Wednesday, Jesse Jackson Jr. and his wife, Sandi, pleaded guilty before Wilkins in federal court in Washington, D.C., to illegally spending campaign money.
Wilkins, in a court filing, offered to recuse himself because in 1988, when he was a student at Harvard Law School, he co-chaired a committee to elect the elder Jackson president. As a law student, Wilkins introduced Rev. Jackson at a campaign event for another candidate. Years later, he appeared on a CNN talk show hosted by Rev. Jackson to discuss a civil rights lawsuit that Wilkins had filed. Wilkins said he did not believe he had a bias in the case, and attorneys in the Jackson case declined to ask for a different judge.
To those who know him, it comes as no surprise that Wilkins, who was appointed to the bench by President Barack Obama in 2010, disclosed those interactions. Colleagues and friends in D.C. were unanimous in describingWilkins as "fair."
"He just wants to put everything on the table," said Angela J. Davis, a professor at American University Washington College of Law. "I'm not surprised by that because he is so very careful about being fair and aboveboard."
It was likely a similar sentiment that drove Wilkins to become the lead plaintiff in what would become a landmark civil rights lawsuit against Maryland State Police in the early 1990s.
Wilkins, who is black, and his family were returning from a funeral in Chicago in 1992 when they were stopped and searched by Maryland State Police. The class-action lawsuit accused police of racial profiling. The state eventually settled, and its police had to track who they were stopping, said one of the attorneys on the case, Bill Mertens, who said Wilkins was "committed to justice."
Before his appointment to the bench, Wilkins, a native of Muncie, Ind., who attended the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, worked for the private firm Venable and was instrumental in establishing the National Museum of African American History and Culture, which is expected to open in D.C. in 2015.
Early in his career Wilkins worked for the Public Defender Service in Washington, D.C. It was there he met Davis, who would later go on to recommend him for the federal bench.
"He was one of the go-to lawyers there because he was so bright, so smart, such a great writer and a great advocate in court," she said.
But though Wilkins was a longtime public defender, it doesn't mean he's soft on defendants that appear before him — that includes Jackson Jr., said Michele Roberts, a D.C. attorney who worked with Wilkins as a public defender.
"No one should expect a soft touch," she said. "He's very fair, but he doesn't have a predilection for being a coddler of people charged with crimes."
Roberts said Wilkins will be sensitive to Jackson Jr.'s claims that he suffers from bipolar disorder.
"He's not going to pooh-pooh or dismiss out of hand any legitimate suggestion that there is a mental health issue that can explain Jackson's conduct," she said.
But if it's not a legitimate issue, she warned, his lawyers "better not try it."

What you're seeing has been there for a long time.VOS,
I was working on a friend's setup, and noticed something I "think" is different (or at least different than I'm remembering it )
Under the SWM signal strengths screen I'm seeing a DVR use two SWM channels always. For example; the setup contained two HR's and an H receiver. When viewing the SWM signal strengths screen from only the "H" receiver there are four "0's" shown (two per DVR.) This is without the DVR's recording or in doubleplay.
I've also tested this on my setup, and verified that regardless of the time of day the DVR's are always "grabbing" two channels (initially I thought they might just be downloading a D* "push".) Has that always been the case? I thought I remembered having to record, or utilize doubleplay to have a DVR grab that 2nd channel in the signal strength screen.
They may not always show the two zeros after a reset, but they always seem to be consecutive channels, so the DVR must be telling the SWiM it wants two and the SWiM assigns two, unless of course the DVR is in single tuner mode.

Unger issues a public apology to Willamina

For the News-Register
Late in Dayton's 54-20 win vs. Willamina in the 3A state quarterfinals Friday, Dayton quarterback Nathan Bernards took a two-step drop, turned to his right and threw a short swing pass to receiver Justin Sutton.
Sutton did the rest, taking the ball 53 yards for the touchdown with 4:44 left in the fourth quarter.
While Pirates fans cheered the touchdown, Dayton coach Brodie Unger ran a few paces down the sidelines and screamed.
He was so furious that his team had scored again that he stalked off to the opposite side of the field, along the way tossing his headset at the bench, the earphones getting stuck in the mud.
Not exactly the typical reaction you'd expect after a touchdown, but then again, Unger isn't exactly the typical coach either.
"To all the Willamina fans, players and coaches," Unger said in his postgame talk, "there was a complete misunderstanding (on that final touchdown), and that's something we don't stand for or condone."
"That's just the type of guy he is," Dayton receiver Forrest Garcia said.
If you haven't gathered by now, Unger was apologizing for seemingly running up the score. His team was up 47-20 with five minutes left in the game. There was no need to throw the ball, and he was mortified when his play call to Bernards got misunderstood and he saw his senior quarterback dropping back.
Unger wanted to make it very clear that's not what Dayton football is about.
"That was by no means on purpose," Unger said. "I take full responsibility under my watch. I publicly apologize to Willamina fans, players and coaches. That was by no means my intentions."
Senior receiver Jered White said the confusion occurred because Unger's call was misheard. The Pirates change their play calls around, and Bernards supposedly heard a play with the word "green" in it, inidcating a pass.
"He got 'Green something,' and he wasn't sure," White said. "He wanted to ask, but he didn't want to get the penalty so he just called it and it just happened."
To Bernards' credit, he also realized what the touchdown pass would look like to Willamina.
"He went over and apologized to them and told them it wasn't supposed to happen," White said.
Willamina coach Tim France understood and wasn't upset by touchdown. He said that was football, and it was his defense's job to try and stop the Pirates from scoring. Of course, had the Pirates reacted differently and celebrated the score excessively instead of apologizing, he might have thought it was classless, but as it stood, he had nothing but good things to say about Dayton and its program.
The way the situation was handled by Unger should be noted by all coaches. Sports are about more than just who wins and who loses, though you can probably find those out there who disagree with that. Like anything else, reputations are made based on how other people observe athletes and coaches acting during a contest. Certain towns and teams can earn poor reputations for how they treat other teams.
It's one thing to win, but to win with class is something that transcends the contest and creates respect between opponents.
As Garcia puts it, "We don't want to show any bad class."
That's exactly right, and more people should do the same.

His thinking might be an outgrowth of radical egalitarianism that he may have picked up in his college days. The liberal university's in our country are awash with this kind of mentality. And we wonder why our country is becoming less and less competitive in the things that really matter.
I'm glad my grandkids aren't on his team.
I'll never forget the first time I'd watched a pop warner pee-wee fooball game, it was the Rhino's versus the I really can't remember 'those other guys' and the Rhino's had lost BIG TIME.
I'd turned to my brother who was sitting next to me up in the bleachers watching my two sons play and said..."Whelp!...it's all over but the crying now, time to bust out the hankies!"
