Middleton famously paired her new sapphire and diamond engagement ring with a blue Issa dress on the day her engagement to Prince William was announced. The dress sold out within hours, as did a budget version from Tesco.
Other retailers and labels also released their own imitations, including this one from Ingenue.
Middleton chose a white Reiss dress, the Nannette, for one of her official engagement portraits with William. It was a past-season piece from the label, and the company rereleased the dress after high demand.
In the United States, it reportedly sold out within two days.
Middleton also dressed herself for the second engagement portrait, this time choosing a cream, silk blouse from Whistles.
Like the Reiss dress, the blouse was rereleased because of customer interest.
In December 2010, Middleton wore a cream and black Temperley London dress paired with a black blazer to a charity event in Norfolk, England.
Admirers were disappointed when the dress, which was from a previous collection, wasn't restocked.
For a trip to Belfast in northern Ireland, Middleton wore a Burberry trench coat featuring a ruffled hem. The coat sold out online within hours.
Middleton chose a vibrant two-piece red skirt suit by designer Luisa Spagnoli when she visited the University of St. Andrews with William. The outfit sold out within days at the London boutique Hollie de Keyser, which stocks the label.
She paired her suit with black suede boots by Aquatalia, and fashionistas snapped them up. Middleton continues to wear the boots -- and they have been so popular that Aquatalia reissued the Rhumba in June 2013.
Speaking of boots, royal fans have noticed that the future queen loves her knee-highs.
In April 2011, the UK's Daily Telegraph reported that sales of knee-high boots soared 663 percent in the past month.
Middleton has also popularized nude pumps -- the duchess is regularly seen in her favorite L.K. Bennett Sledge heels.
Fashionistas have also been keeping an eye on Middleton's love of hats and hair accessories. Fascination over the "fascinator," a particularly ornate hair accessory that can feature feathers, beads, flowers and other fancy trimmings, is growing in the United States.
In April 2011, CNN reported that Google searches shot up 50 percent for "fascinators" since January. Middleton wore this feathered piece at the wedding of Laura Parker Bowles and Harry Lopes in May 2006.
Middleton during the Sovereign's Parade at the Royal Military Academy in Sandhurst, southern England, Dec. 15, 2006.
She wore this one at the Order of the Garter Service in Windsor, England, in June 2008.
Another envy of women across the world is Middleton's hair. Glamour even published a how-to for attaining her "bouncy, shiny, basically perfect" locks.
Middleton has the Midas touch on jewelry, too. As soon as the world caught a glimpse of the sapphire and diamond engagement ring on her hand (which once belonged to William's mother, Princess Diana, shown on the right), it seemed everyone wanted their own replica.
Knockoff versions, left, were stocked at QVC, HSN and elsewhere. At right is the real ring.
The white topaz earrings she wore for one of her engagement portraits, from Links of London, were also hot. A fight reportedly broke out between two women over the last pair at the New York Links store.
Her fashion dominance continued into her pregnancy. She wore a $76 polka dot Topshop dress while touring the Warner Bros. Studios at Leavesden in England and the frock reportedly sold out online and in stores within hours.
This Max Mara wrap dress was also reportedly snatched up by "copy-Kates" hours after she stepped out in the dress.
Some women want to emulate Middleton so much that they're making it their livelihood. Kate Bevan quit her job to become a professional Middleton look-alike.
Several style blogs and websites devoted to Middleton's fashion -- and how you can score your own "copy-Kate" outfits -- have also popped up.
And if you needed any more proof that Middleton really is a style icon, take a look at this: She has her very own fashion doll.

More than two-dozen Southgate residents and business owners crowded the Siesta Drive post office Friday morning, waiting to hear word about the possible closure of their postal branch.
"This post office is so convenient for us," said Southgate resident Joan Atchley. "I love the location."
The U.S. Postal Service has put the Southgate branch, which employs 24 people, on a list of more than 600 post offices nationwide that are at risk of closure as part of a cost-cutting tactic. It's the only location in Sarasota on the list.
Greg Jackson, Sarasota's postmaster, said the primary reason Southgate is at risk is because it leases, not owns, its space, and the Postal Service is looking to shed its leases.
District 13 Rep. Vern Buchanan, R-Longboat Key, met with Jackson and U.S. Postal Service officials at the Southgate branch Friday morning in an effort to keep the post office open.
"I never realized the impact a post office has on a community," said Buchanan. "It's huge."
Postal Service spokesman Gary Sawtelle said a decision whether to close the branch could come within 90 days.
"We're still early in the process," said Sawtelle. "We don't want to close them, but we're in a tough financial situation."
The Postal Service's economic woes were not much comfort to those who have come to rely on the Siesta Drive post office.
"I bought into this neighborhood because it's a walking neighborhood," said Southgate resident Joann Atkins. "We walk to the post office. We walk to the mall. We walk to the restaurants. This (post office) is the fabric of the neighborhood."
Buchanan vowed to do what he could.
"Our goal is to keep the post office from advancing further (on the postal service's cut list)," he said.

- The Southgate Post Office sits on Siesta Drive, just off Tamiami Trail near Bee Ridge Road; one of the busiest commercial intersections in Sarasota, Florida. For over fifty years it has served not only the local community, but also those on Siesta Key coming north onto the mainland via Siesta Drive, and others as far away as I-75.
This busy Post Office is the anchor to a plaza with a number of small businesses. Within ten minutes walking distance are a grocery store, deli, bakery, pharmacies, banks, an elementary school and a middle school, restaurants of all types, a barber, and service and repair shops for your car. A shopping mall is across the street, and laundry, dry cleaning and hardware used to be close, but are a bit farther away now.
Just about everything you need is close at hand to this Post Office. This area defines what Sarasota neighborhoods are supposed to be; what American neighborhoods are supposed to be like. It is one of the key reasons people buy homes here. New families love the schools, seniors love being able to walk safely to the Post Office and other shops.
The only reason put forward for the closing of this post office is that it is in a leased building. It has been there for decades. It could have been in a permanent building years ago. This decision to close this office was made purely on money. Isn't our government meant to serve? This decision was not made about service. Its loss will weaken the community, and provide more work for other already overburdened facilities nearby.
I urge each of you to contact your legislators and the postmaster to stop this unfair and misguided closing.

The Fault Line of Fear – a Tectonic Response
September 8, 2011 by TMO · Leave a Comment
By Samia Moustapha Bahsoun and Brenda Naomi Rosenberg
Our world is in emotional HIGH RED ALERT with fear as our compass. Headlines read: Are terrorist masterminding another Sept 11? If the Palestinian authority gets formal UN recognition does it mean no peace treaty with Israel and another war? Will more Muslims immigrants result in Sharia being the law of the land? Is the Arab Spring a venue for Islamic fundamentalists to take over the world? Today the world is afraid of Muslims and their motives. Sixty years ago, Hitler used fear to rally half a continent against Jews engineering their total elimination. "Fear continues to be the weapon of choice in small and large conflicts worldwide used to manipulate and control"1 as leaders play on our physiological responses to these fears – fight or flight.
Originally discovered by the great Harvard physiologist Walter Cannon, this physiological response is hard-wired into our brains – and represents a genetic wisdom designed to protect us from bodily harm2. We have been indoctrinated to believe that these are the only responses to fear. In fact, such conditioning is so prevalent that it is rarely questioned when leaders use fear-mongering for their own personal ambitions, acting as protectors for their constituents. The fight or flight response fuels the tension and fear generated by mistrust, lack of respect, unmet expectations, denial of identity, and targeted aggression. This tension cannot be eradicated but can be addressed in a new way.
We are proposing a third and new response to fear – a Tectonic response to fear- one that connects not separates, one that engages the other and does not alienate, one that empathizes and does not destroy – one that distinguishes us from the animals who are limited to fight or flight. Using earth plate tectonics as a metaphor, we recognize that human interactions in situations of conflict are like fault lines between tectonic plates; plates interacting and building friction at their boundaries, causing earthquakes to occur when the natural elasticity of surrounding rocks has been exceeded. Human interactions can similarly create fault lines. When the pressure generated by tension and fear becomes unbearable, the energy released is tsunami-like, creating mass hysteria, inciting hate and fear, separating nations, destroying businesses and communities, oppressing people, and instigating wars. To give the rocks back their elasticity, we must move beyond the fight or flight model and use the tension as an opportunity to inform ourselves of the deepest fear, pains, and trans-generational wounds that separate people in conflict, and plague our world, build trust and create a new discourse. To construct this new relational architecture that can sustain seismic events inherent to our civilization, we are proposing a less 1 "Fear and Argentina's Dirty War" published in July 2010 by Crystina Wyler for course work at NOVA Southeastern University.
2 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fight-or-flight_response
instinctive and more evolved paradoxical and Tectonic response to fear, one that goes beyond ("para") our common sense ("doxa").
We developed this Tectonic response to fear by utilizing the tension in our own relationship – a relationship defined by our separate national, professional, religious, cultural, and political identities – Samia Moustapha Bahsoun, an American Arab of Muslim descent, telecom executive, pro-Palestinian activist, and Brenda Naomi Rosenberg, an American Jewish Zionist, pro-Israel, global fashion executive. Together, we tackled the hot topics that separate our communities – Zionism, Holocaust, Gaza, Lebanon War, Jerusalem, occupation, settlements, suicide bombing, right of return, flotilla, the Cordoba Center at ground zero – and used the tension surrounding these elements of conflict to deepen our understanding of the other. We expanded the holocaust story to include both our narratives without changing our core beliefs, connecting without comparing the death of 70 year old Holocaust victim Dora Shklyan, who died at Teofipol in the Ukraine to the death of Samia's 70 year old grand-mother Mariam Bahsoun, who died in 1982 under Israeli raids on Southern Lebanon.
As we used tension as an opportunity to face our realities and deepen our understanding of each other and not as an obstacle in partnering, we learned that being committed and disciplined to care equally about self and other is essential to building trust, transforming conflict, and sustaining our relationship.
The September U.N. Conferences on Palestinian Statehood and Durban III give us an opportunity to apply a Tectonic approach to conflict transformation.
Leaders responding to the upcoming conferences are falling into the "fight or flight" trap. In the upcoming UN vote on Palestinian Statehood, the Palestinians are presenting it as a "fight" for their denied identity, the Israeli are "fighting" against it as a threat to their security; both parties are "fleeing" from the peace process. Their respective allies are not responding any differently; a veto by the United States is a "flight" response to the fear of alienating its ally in the region, broadening the divide. Reactions to the upcoming Durban III UN conference are no different. Australia, Canada, the United States, Israel, the Czech Republic, Italy and the Netherlands have announced that they will boycott Durban III, charging that the Durban process has been used to promote racism, intolerance, anti-Semitism and Holocaust denial, and to erode freedom of speech and Israel's right to exist. Such boycott unfortunately does not address the tension surrounding these issues, broadening once again the divide. Both are "fighting" for what they believe to be right, both are "fleeing " to the comfort of those who share the same point of view instead of addressing the fear and real issues that are creating the tension with the people whose views are different.
Under the Tectonic response model, leaders on all sides of conflict can instead use the tension that separates Israelis and Palestinians and their respective allies to articulate the real needs of both people, common to both; need for a national identity, safety, equality, and freedom. To transform conflict and give peace a chance, we must move beyond the fight or flight model to a tectonic response to fear – one that brings tension to the negotiating table instead of seeing tension as the enemy, using it as an opportunity to reveal the unspoken barriers to peace, addressing the deep trans-generational wounding, the cultural, sociological and motivational differences of both people.
Samia Moustapha Bahsoun and Brenda Naomi Rosenberg are co-founders of the Tectonic Leadership Center for Conflict Transformation and Cross Cultural Communication. The center trains leaders on opposite side of conflicts to take joint ownership in using tension to transform conflict. For more information, please visit www.tectonicleadership.org.

Liability car insurance
Most states' financial responsibility laws require that drivers buy two types of liability car insurance coverage in order to operate a vehicle on the roadway.
- Bodily injury liability car insurance pays the medical bills of individuals you are found liable for injuring with your car.
- Property damage liability car insurance pays to repair or replace cars or other property that you hit with your vehicle.
Details on both types of liability car insurance are below.
What does liability car insurance do?
Bodily injury liability (BI) pays, up to your policy limits, for injuries or death that you (the policyholder), or other drivers covered by your car insurance policy, are found responsible for after a motor vehicle accident. Policy terms vary but typically bodily injury liability coverage will pay, up to your policy limits, for:
- Medical expenses
- Funeral expenses
- Loss of income
- Pain and suffering
- Legal defense if a lawsuit results from the auto accident
[Let CarInsurance.com help you find affordable auto insurance now.]
Policy limits for bodily injury liability are per person and per accident and coverage is written as such. For example, $25,000/$50,000 means that the maximum payout per person is $25,000, and the maximum payout for all people injured in one accident is $50,000. This coverage may also be simply written as 25/50.
Bodily injury liability does NOT cover your injuries, only the injuries of others that you are liable for. For your personal injuries to be covered, you would need coverages such as personal injury protection (PIP) or medical payments (MedPay).
Property damage liability (PD) pays, up to your policy limits, for damages to someone else's property that you (the policyholder), or other drivers covered by your car insurance policy, are found responsible for after a motor vehicle accident.
Property damage typically is damage to another car, but property damage liability also covers damages you may cause to someone's house, tree, fence, guardrail, pole, etc.
Property damage liability provides you with legal defense if another party files a lawsuit against you regarding property damage that resulted from an auto accident.
Property damage liability does NOT cover in any way damages to your own vehicle. For such coverage, you need physical damage coverages of collision and comprehensive.
Is liability car insurance mandatory?
Yes, in most states bodily injury liability and property damage liability are required as part of the minimum auto insurance coverages you must carry as a car owner. To see your state's requirements, click on State Car Insurance at the top of this page.
Car insurance companies normally require that you carry the same level of liability coverage on each vehicle listed on your policy. In some states, you must carry the same liability limits on all cars that you own. Even if the state does not require this, some insurance companies will.
A few states do not require bodily injury liability coverage because they have what are known as no-fault laws. Under those rules, drivers must carry what is known as personal injury protection to pay for their own injuries or those of their passengers. Once those limits are exceeded, you are personally liable for the costs of treating the injuries you cause.
Even in states with no-fault laws, most people buy bodily injury liability insurance.
Recommended limits for liability car insurance
In many states the legal minimum is not enough to pay for serious injuries or to replace a late-model car. It is only enough to drive legally. Buy the minimum only if you have no savings or home to shield from lawsuits.
The Insurance Information Institute (III) and other insurance industry experts recommend motorists carry bodily injury liability coverage of $100,000 per person and $300,000 per accident (referred to as 100/300 coverage). For property damage liability coverage, $50,000 or above is suggested. If you can afford higher limits, that is even better for the protection of your assets. Liability insurance beyond these amounts tends to be very inexpensive.
What happens if I don't have liability car insurance?
If you don't carry liability and the state requires it, then penalties can be handed out, such as fines and suspension of your license, and/or vehicle registration.
Also, without bodily injury liability and property damage liability coverage on your car insurance policy, you will be held personally responsible for any injuries or damages you cause to others in an auto accident. This could mean you will be forced to liquidate property, savings and other assets in order to pay for a judgment against you.
If you do carry bodily injury liability coverage, but with low limits, you still could be putting yourself at risk financially, since if you cause a serious accident where injury expenses exceed your limits you can be held responsible for the amount above your limits.
The same applies to property damage liability insurance. Every state requires that you take financial responsibility in the event of an accident. If you have very low limits on your property damage liability coverage, you are personally liable for the amount over and above what your insurance pays.

DES MOINES – A work plan agreement on the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Program, a federal program under the Clean Water Act, has been reached by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
The agreement, signed today, by Iowa Department of Natural Resources and EPA Region 7, establishes a partnership approach for working with large and medium scale livestock operations in Iowa to share best practices, clarify responsibilities, and further demonstrate the shared commitment from all stakeholders to be good stewards of the land. This work plan agreement will help to clarify misunderstandings about the NPDES program implementation and underscore a shared interest in environmental preservation and protection.
"Our state is blessed with many natural resources and we want to continue our efforts to protect our land and water for future generations." said DNR Director Chuck Gipp, "As we gathered suggestions for this work plan, we visited with many Iowans affected by the NPDES program, including farmers, landowners, municipalities, the EPA and other stakeholders to discuss how we can work together to achieve a shared goal. This work plan agreement clarifies program implementation and is a reflection of Iowans working together on a commonsense solution that will encourage best practices and promote open communication between affected Iowans and the DNR."
"This plan rejects a one-size-fits-all approach for every farm in Iowa. Instead, the state chose a partnership approach that enables agricultural producers to leverage best practices proactively," said Bruce Trautman, Deputy Director of the DNR.
In addition to the work plan agreement, DNR also worked with the EPA and affected stakeholders to create a variety of standard operating procedure documents, which will promote best practices, embrace the partnership approach and provide for further regulatory certainty for Iowa farmers and landowners.
"We also believe this partnership approach will improve stakeholder coordination and allow us to better focus resources," Gipp added.
Gipp said U.S. EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy's visit to Iowa during the State Fair helped the process of completing a final work plan.
"I think Administrator McCarthy's message of cooperation rather than confrontation was well received here in Iowa," said Gipp.
This work plan is just another demonstration of the State of Iowa's commitment to water quality. Earlier this summer Governor Branstad signed into law a $700,000 appropriation to hire seven additional environmental specialists and $22.4 million appropriated to the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship for water quality initiatives, including the Nutrient Reduction Strategy. In addition, DNR received an additional $8.6 million for lake restoration.

To Your Health
With its sunny days and seaside location, Sarasota has long attracted adventurous and active newcomers, who value both the physical and mental health benefits of living here. It's easier to stay fit and happy in a place where the days are bright and beautiful and everything from walking to windsurfing is accessible all year long.
And as a critical mass of people settled here, many in their retirement years, medical and healthcare professionals followed. In the past few decades, our relatively small region has gained an outsize reputation for top-quality healthcare, from highly ranked hospitals to outstanding specialists in a host of fields. (You can read more about that in Mike Vizvary's comprehensive roundup of hospitals and top area specialties in "Don't Leave Town for Healthcare.")
We're also now home to two major medical schools, biomedical companies and research institutes, great rehab centers and an army of massage therapists, fitness experts and other health-related professionals. In fact, in a joint study by The Robert Wood Foundation and the University of Wisconsin, Sarasota ranked third among Florida's 67 counties in 2012 for the overall health of its population and our access to healthcare.
Indeed, good healthcare has joined good weather and a lively arts scene as one of the top reasons people choose Sarasota over other warm-weather beach towns. Local doctors note that their patients are unusually well-educated and discerning when it comes to health, and we've certainly seen that at Sarasota Magazine. Our readers have the resources and the interest to seek out state-of-the art facilities and care, and in recent years, we've responded to that interest with more coverage of health and medical issues in the magazine and on our website.
But health in this city has become too big a subject to cover completely in a general-interest magazine. It deserves a publication of its own. This debut issue of Sarasota Health brings together a host of resources and stories. We've included some of the most compelling health content from Sarasota Magazine, especially our exclusive listing of the doctors in Sarasota/Manatee chosen as "Top Doctors" by national medical researcher Castle Connolly. You'll find our 2012 listing of Top Dentists as well.
But we've also sent out our reporters to cover new subjects and stories that will help you make smart medical decisions and find the help you need right here. You'll learn about the procedures that are making new hips, knees and shoulders an everyday miracle for thousands of local residents, discover painless ways to improve your memory and brainpower, and find understanding—and practical help—if you're one of the many local residents caring for an aging or disabled friend or relative. We also explore the connection between your health and your inner happiness; and we haven't neglected the externals, with a guide to the ways local cosmetic surgeons, dermatologists and dentists can make you look as young as you feel.
We want this magazine to be both a resource and an inspiration, helping you achieve your dream of living a long and healthy life in Sarasota. Our new Sarasota Health blog will offer more resources and information; you can find it at sarasotamagazine.com.

News Number of deaths on Czech roads over summer holidays lowest since 1990
One hundred and thirty-three people died in traffic accidents on Czech roads over the course of the summer holidays – three fewer than the same period last year and the lowest since 1990. Over the first eight months, however, the number of road fatalities increased by 21 year-on-year, traffic police chief Tomáš Lerch told journalists on Friday. The number could still change based on ongoing investigations where death may have been related to health problems and the accident itself was secondary.

Police arrest international network of euro counterfeiters
Czech police in December arrested members of an organised network, which has allegedly been importing counterfeit 500 euro banknotes in the Czech Republic. According to the police, the money was forged in Bulgaria and distributed in the Czech Republic and other EU states. Spokesman of the Czech Police's Organised Crime Unit Pavel Hanták said on Friday that the group produced 90 percent of all fake 500 euro banknotes seized in the Czech Republic last year. Nine members of the group, including one Czech national, were charged with counterfeiting so far. If found guilty, they are facing up to 12 years in prison.
STEM: popularity of PM Sobotka continues to rise
A new poll released by the STEM agency suggests that the popularity of Prime Minister Bohuslav Sobotka has continued to go up. The survey found that 63 percent of respondents view the prime minister positively, which is the best result Mr Sobotka has registered so far. ANO party leader Andrej Babiš remains the most popular head of a parliamentary party with 72 percent. On the contrary, the popularity of Tomio Okamura, the leader of the controversial Dawn Party, has been gradually dropping, since reaching its peak after early elections in 2013.
Number of newly registered HIV cases up by 232 in 2014
Czech doctors last year registered 232 new cases of HIV infection, mostly among men. According to the figures released by the National Reference Laboratory for HIV/AIDS on Friday, 34 people developed full blown AIDS and 13 people died of the disease in 2014. So far the highest number of new HIV cases was registered in 2013, when it reached 235. Altogether 2,354 people have been diagnosed HIV-positive since 1985, when testing for HIV in the Czech Republic started. There has been a steady increase in cases since 2003.

Meteorologists have issued a snow warning for most parts of the Czech Republic. Weather experts have also warned against strong winds, especially in Moravia. Drivers should expect snowdrifts and the fact that less frequented roads may be impassable. Heavy snowfall could bring up to 30 centimetres of fresh snow to the Beskydy Mountains in northern Moravia. Temperatures in the next few days are expected to remain below the freezing point.
Health warning issued over extremely low pressure
Barometric pressure in the Czech Republic has been rapidly falling over the past few years, attacking a record registered in 1989. The barometric pressure on Friday reached 974 hPa while the average pressure in January is around 1013 hPA. The lowest ever barometric pressure measured in the Czech Republic, 967hPa, was recorded in February 1989. Chronically ill people, particularly cardiac patients and people suffering from asthma, have been advised to refrain from strenuous physical activity outdoors.

In a commentary for the daily Právo on Friday, Mr Pavel, who is to become the new head of NATO's Military Committee in summer, said he was ready to resign if he was to be an obstacle to normal functioning of the government. The relationship between Mr Pavel and the Defence Minister Martin Stropnický has worsened in the past few weeks over the appointment of new head of the Czech military police.
Dozens of otters killed by poachers every year
Dozens of otters living in the Czech Republic are killed by poachers every year, according to a survey carried out by ALKA Wildlife organisation. The organisation has warned that if the negative trend continues, the otter population in the Czech Republic would be seriously threatened. A number of other protected species, such as birds of prey, also fall victim to poachers. Killing a protected animal is a criminal offense punishable by up to three years in prison. However, only a small percentage of the cases are successfully investigated.

Singing lieutenant's legacy lives on
Beth Sholom award honors employee, resident 'idol'
In his last 12 years of life, Art Heller coped with a debilitating stroke, a move from his lifelong home in New Jersey, and the stress of adjusting to serious health limitations and life in an assisted living facility and new town. But he didn't simply meet the challenge gracefully, say those who knew him. He excelled at his new life, won over an entire community of residents and employees in his new home, and went on to become an icon of the community who is still revered today. Although the World War II veteran passed away in 2004 – on Veteran's Day – his name still comes up frequently in conversations at Beth Sholom. From his stellar singing voice to his enthusiasm for baseball and his charismatic personality, Heller continues to live prominently in the memories of his Beth Sholom family. "The staff at the home absolutely adored him," says Arthur's son, Dan. "He had a personality that was able to engage everyone." Heller recalls that when family members visited other residents of the home, and their own relatives were not doing well, they would seek out Art Heller to get the lift in spirits they needed. "They'd stop and see my dad and just spend a few minutes, and then they'd tell me how good it made them feel," says Heller. "He had that uncanny ability." What's more, Art's legacy lives on in the annual Arthur Heller Employee Recognition Award award, which his grateful family established both as a tribute to Heller and as an appreciative gesture to the staff members who helped make his life so enjoyable in his later years. Heart of gold This year's award recipient, Mike Sorenson, has worked at Beth Sholom for 17 years in roles ranging from maintenance to night watchman to his current job as medical supplies coordinator. Deirdre Arnowitz, director of social work at Beth Sholom, says Sorenson is not only a deserving recipient, but one who has much in common with the award's namesake. "Mike is such a sweet man," says Arnowitz. "He'll do anything for anybody and he's very kind to all the residents." Arnowitz adds that among the roles Sorenson has assigned himself over the years -- without being asked -- is caretaker of animals at the home. "He loves cats and birds, and when we had a resident cat, Mike took care of her all the time," says Arnowitz. "He took her to the vet and came back on weekends to feed her. He wanted to make sure the residents had a cat." When the cat died, Sorenson took care of subsequent pets, including birds. He would make sure the birds were covered at night, and took them to residents to keep overnight. "The residents did better because of his efforts," says Arnowitz. Arnowitz also points out that when feral cats became a problem outside the residential community, Sorenson found homes for all of them as well. On the job, says Arnowitz, Sorenson is known for his knack for fixing things, and often helps out in the rehabilitation department repairing wheelchairs. "He just has a heart of gold," says Arnowitz, "and an unassuming manner. He never wants attention for himself and was just flabbergasted to get the award." 'King Arthur' While Sorenson is reluctant to speak of himself, he lights up with a smile remembering Art Heller, whom he calls a "good man" with a talent for singing and playing the piano. Arnowitz confirms Heller's talent for entertaining, and cites a list of favorite songs he would sing, including "Let Me Call You Sweetheart," "Take Me Out to the Ballgame," and "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling." "We called him King Arthur," says Arnowitz with a laugh. "He sang for every talent show and sing-along, and everyone followed along. I remember he also sang 'Always' to [his granddaughter] Erin. "He had the most gorgeous blue eyes. He just melted us." Dan Heller notes that his father's singing voice was something of a legend, and that he entertained the troops during the 1940s. "There's a picture of him singing to 10,000 troops in Louisville, Kentucky," says Heller. "They called him 'The Singing Lieutenant.' But he was very modest, and other family members had to tell us about it." Heller says that after the war, his father apparently auditioned for a singing role, and ended up taking second place. The man he lost out to was Dennis Day, who later went on to fame as Jack Benny's sidekick. "I tell my children," says Heller, 'If there had been an American Idol in the 1940s, your grandpa would have been in the top ten.'" 'He meant so much' But it was Art Heller's demeanor, even more than his talent for entertaining, that stands out in the memories of those who knew him. "He was so appreciative," says Arnowitz, "and so amenable to everyone. Art was just the nicest, kindest, smartest – and he would share about his life. I always assigned social worker interns to him, because he was such a great guy to get to know." Dan Heller tells the story of an encounter about two years after his father died, when he was in line with his son at a fast food restaurant and noticed a woman staring at him. Eventually the woman approached him, saying, "You're Mr. Heller's son." She told Dan that she had worked at Beth Sholom years ago, and that in her 25-year career working in nursing homes, his father was the "nicest man I ever met." "Then," recalls Dan, "she takes out her wallet and shows me his obituary. She looked at me and said, 'He meant so much to me.'" Hearing that from a professional with that much experience in the field, says Heller, told him that establishing the employee recognition award was clearly the right way to recognize his father. Since establishing the award (which he discussed with his father before his death), Heller has noticed that the idea seems to generate other ideas for good turns. One day, Heller happened to mention the award while on the golf course, telling his fellow players how it honored not only his father's memory but also the unsung heroes who work at Beth Sholom. One golfer, who had just lost his son in an accident, was moved to donate gift cards to all of the award recipients in his son's memory. It's also tradition that as part of the annual awards ceremony, previous recipients join the celebration and are given corsages and gift certificates. The current winner, surrounded by residents, staff, and friends of the community, receives a cash award in addition to the recognition. The ceremony never fails to move Deirdre Arnowitz and members of the Heller family (Dan, wife Nancy, and children Ben and Erin – all of whom have volunteered at the home for years) – or to elicit memories and story-telling about "King Arthur." "I am so glad he lived here 12 years," says Arnowitz. "We were so lucky to have him." |

Safavieh Courtyard Courtyard Rug Coffee Rug
Item #: 101CY5142A-P Add to Wishlist
Description: Safavieh takes classic beauty outside of the home with the launch of their Courtyard Collection. Made in Turkey with enhanced polypropylene for extra durability, these rugs are suitable for anywhere inside or outside of the house. To achieve more intricate and elaborate details in the designs, Safavieh used a specially-developed sisal weave.
- Collection: Courtyard
- Brand: Safavieh
- Material: 100% Polypropylene
- Weave: Machine Made
- Styles: Outdoor Rugs Contemporary Rugs
- Origin: Turkey
- Available in the following sizes: 4' x 5' 7'', 5' 3'' x 7' 7'', 7' 10'' x 11', 9' x 12', 7' 10" Round, 2' 4'' x 6' 7'', 2' 3" x 10', 2' 4" x 12' and 2' 4" x 14'
I purchased this rug in black for my kitchen. The pattern was a little smaller than I thought it would be but I'm happy with it. It is easy to keep clean and looks good. The synthetic fabric makes it a good choice for the kitchen. It's a good value for the money.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.An important thing to note is that the color is much closer to the description (coffee) than the photo, which has a little bit of a brick tint. The rug is a sandy brown and beige, and made very well.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Purchased this in black for our front patio and it definitely completed the look and feel. We will see how it stands with time but for now I love it. Very durable and high quality for sure.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.I'm using this rug as an indoor, high traffic area rug and it's absolutely perfect. We have 4 dogs and it's easy to vacuum and clean. The quality is much better than the outdoor rugs you can get at home improvement stores. It doesn't look like an outdoor rug.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.I love the rug and get so many compliments on it. The color is just what I was looking for, it's a deep saturated orange. This is the best price I've ever paid for this quality of rug.
Very nice quality, especially considering the price after the discount. It has enough substance to lie flat on my uneven brick patio without looking bumpy. The black dye of the main field is intense. I have had it only a few weeks so I don't know if it will fade in the sun, but a little fading if it occurs won't detract much anyway. The rug came within the same week I ordered it, and the email status updates from RugsUSA, including tracking number, was professionally managed.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Beautiful rug -- I have the black in my dining room and the rust in my living room. Perfect for eclectic decor (or any decor, for that matter!) Have received many compliments. Softer than the sisal rugs they replaced. And, you can't beat the price!
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.I purchased this rug in black, and I really love it! It was a fraction of the cost of the same rug at other stores.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Safavieh offers a wide variety of transitional area and accent rugs of both Oriental and contemporary designs.
