New house so needed new rug to tie in colours. The light blue version of this rug looked perfect online and now it has been delivered is even more so. I love it. Seems great quality and love the fact it is wool. Highly recommend.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Colors and quality are very good. The rug will fit perfectly in the space for which I bought it. It is very soft and thick. It was delivered in record time.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.I have the same rug in a different shape in another part of the house. This rug is a bit more yellow toned than the other rug but that is probably due to dye lots. The other rug has held up nicely for a year and I expect the same from this one. Rug came very quickly.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.This is my second review. I returned the rugs because the very small one didn't have the boarder, as pictured. Also the colors were so far off I couldn't believe it. I paid for shipping but felt that that money should be refunded as the order was not as pictured..no boarder. I've called twice and emailed and have yet to get a reply. Beautifully made but poor customers,er service. My first review wasn't posted.
RECOMMENDED: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.This rug is heavy and very colorful. The background color is a dark buttery yellow, so don't be shocked when it arrives. The other colors are very vivid. I like the size and height of the weave. The only problem I found was there were a few missed loops where there wss no yarn. But all in all, I love this rug! Also, it arrived very quickly
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Very nice rug, especially for the price. The color is much lighter than it appears on the web site. Although I would have preferred a richer gold color, the rug serves the purpose for which it was intended. Very fast shipping.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Love this rug! It's hard to find a 12' runner and this one is perfect for my long hallway. Colorful but not too bold. Makes a great entrance into the living room. Quality is fine and happy the rug is not too thick. Overall, a great purchase.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.I purchased this with the light blue background and it is a stunner ! In fact, this is the second one I've purchased, the former in a larger size. It is a beautiful rug, bold colors, and very well made.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Very good quality especially for the money. Rug came in longer lengths which I needed for my long hallways. Colors are vibrant & true to pictures provided.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.This rug is awesome. It's absolutely beautiful and has many colors to match other aspects of my room. It is not as bright as visualized on line, but I am very happy with it.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Ordered this in Ivory..colors are beautiful. Middle backround is the color of butter..Fast shipping, ordered on Sat.and it was here on Thurs...Will order from Rugs USA again.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.It's very beautiful, soft and gorgeous, I like it very much! Colors are spectacular!
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.THE RUG IS THICK AND WELL MADE. THE COLORS ARE JUST AS THEY APPEAR IN THE PICTURE. I REALLY AM HAPPY WITH MY CHOICE. IT'S JUST THE RIGHT SIZE AND GOES WELL WITH THE DECOR IN MY ROOM.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.I ordered this rug in black and it is actually navy blue. Very disappointed as this is a beautiful rug. The room I was planning on using it in is comprised of browns and blacks, so the navy does not look good at all. I am planning on using it in another room as I do like the rug. I was very pleased with the quick shipping and the condition the rug arrived in.
RECOMMENDED: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.It made a nice Christmas gift that I was proud to give and the recipient was grateful to receive, very satisfied.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.We needed a larger rug for our family room. With two dogs and a pool outside we didn't want to spend a ton of money. We order the ivory color and it's perfect. The colors are vibrant and the pattern will hide some sins. While there is a bit of variation in the loops, for the money I don't think we could have done any better. We are very pleased. I have ordered numerous rugs from rugsusa and have been happy every time.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Exactly what I wanted! Looks great in my kitchen and the quality is good too. Thanks again for the super fast shipping!!
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.This rug is absolutely beautiful. So impressed with the design, color combination, texture, and softness of the rug.

Let There be Light!
March 25, 2010 by TMO
By Mahvish Akhtar, MMNS Pakistan Correspondent
Just recently I hired a maid, who would come every morning, clean the house and leave. She was a young girl of 14 or 15 not more than that. Every day she would get done with the work and come to me and ask me if there is something else she could do for me. I would tell her that she could leave once she was done cleaning but every day she would come and ask me if there was anything else. When I told her that was it, she would ask me if I wanted her to massage my feet, or if I wanted that drawer on my dresser cleaned out. I didn't understand why she wanted to do extra work without being asked to do so. Being confused for a long time I finally asked a friend about this strange behavior. She simply said she must be looking for some extra money. She must be thinking that by doing your other small chores you might give her some extra money. But I had not given her any extra money and she had not even asked for it. I still was not satisfied. One day when she was fixing my shoe closet after I had told her she could go I asked her. I said, "Why do you insist on staying here even after I have told you that you can go home? Don't you like it in your own house?" Without even looking at me she said in a very matter of fact way that it was because I had fans working all the time. I am one of the lucky ones who have a UPS so even if the electricity goes the fans are still working. She did not want to go home because she did not have a way of even slightly comforting her self when the electricity was taken away in this scorching heat of Lahore.
I was taking a stroll in my neighborhood where I noticed 2 small boys playing who were not wearing anything. I looked around to see if I could find their mother. I saw a woman standing nearby I went up to her and asked her if she knew the boys. She said she was their big sister. She told me that they live in the street next to mine and the boys were playing here so she came to watch over them. I asked her why they were not wearing any clothes. She replied that they had developed rashes and hives because of the heat and the doctor had suggested to not let any fabric touch them and keep them cool so that's why every day the sun goes down they let them play out for a while. I told her that this is probably not such a good idea since its still not cool enough and their rashes could get aggravated maybe keeping them inside under a fan is a better idea. She said yes that's what we were doing until yesterday when the lights went out in the morning and came back at 8 in the evening. Today she said is a repeat of yesterday, as far as they were concerned this is the coolest it's going to be for them today.
There are many sides to this problem that we are facing and everyone is affected by it in their own way. It does not matter what class or section of the society one belongs to everyone is facing the problems and has their own issues to deal with when it comes to electricity. With that said it would be very correct to assume that the businesses and the marketplace must be suffering greatly because of this problem. I wanted to know how they deal with this problem. The day I visited to talk to a Bookstore they were facing an especially bad day. I was told that electricity had been shutting down every half hour. They said that their generator has been on for the whole day. The manager told me that the business is good but with the cost of generator it is becoming hard to make ends meet considering the growing prices of electricity as well. He said that it is so costly to keep the generator on all day that some times they think of closing early just to avoid the cost "but then its hard to do that when you are running a business and you know customers are counting on you", adds the manager.
Another clothing store has the same story. Of course their store is well known and they have more customers so it is not such a big issue for them. Surprisingly most shops and stores I spoke to in Liberty market didn't complain much about electricity problems in that area. They said that they had timed load shedding which they had generators for so it was working out fine. Most of them however shifted quiet quickly to the situation at their homes and their neighborhoods. They were quick to tell me that this electricity problem was a menace in their homes. Most of them told me that had no electricity for about 2 hours at a time in their homes. One cashier said that it's terrible when his children come home from school all tired and sweating and they don't even have a fan to rest under when they get home.
While I was talking to the cashier at a shoe store a lady who was standing line right behind me overheard our conversation about load shedding and chimed in saying that sometimes she leaves her house when there is no light because there is an AC in her car and the stores are usually more comfortable than her house under the circumstances. I asked her what about her kids and other members of the family. She laughed and said I don't do it every day. "Do you know how much patrol costs these days?" of course I know how high those prices are too. But it is sad when people are looking for ways to find comfort and relief in any way possible. I had heard of driving the baby around the block in the car to put him/her to sleep but this was something new for me. Is this going too far? Under this circumstance who knows what is going too far and what is not we are all doing the best we can to survive these days.
A tailor who owns a small shop in the basement of a busy market told me that his business has been cut in half because of load shedding. Now he says he doesn't take on too much work because he knows he will not be able to complete it. "I can't afford a generator and when I don't take enough work I don't even make enough to feed my family. "When women come in here with a lot of clothes to get sown and tell me that they need it in a week I tell them its not possible. So, they take their clothes to a bigger shop that has a generator and can sew their clothes in less amount of time". This tailor is forced to take less work and even with that work he struggles to finish it in the time he has given his customers with the electricity playing hide and seek constantly. Just recently this tailor fired his assistant because he couldn't afford to pay him any more. He says things don't seem to be getting any better. Now he is working hard and trying to save up as much as possible. I asked him what he was saving up for…he said he wants to save up enough to be able to buy a generator. He thinks once he has a generator all his problems will be solved.
I guess there is something to be said about the power of generators. A student expressed his opinion when asked how he deals with not having electricity especially during exams by saying; "Generator Zindabad!" then he added that his neighbors keep the generators on all the time since it is convenient and they find it cheaper then electricity. Of course this was in Karachi where things are a bit more difficult in terms of electricity problems. I asked this young man what they do in school when there is no electricity. He said you just get used to it. When asked about how the learning process is in the heat he said, "I don't think I learn anything in the heat. I mean the teachers are teaching but I don't retain anything." I asked him why and he said, "Because it's HOT".
Another student who is my relative messaged me one day out of the blue. I asked her what's up and why she is messaging me she said she was bored and just wanted to see what was up with me. That was not a normal thing for her to do so but I was glad that she had thought of messaging an old person like me just to chit chat. After a while of massaging back and forth she abruptly said that she had to go. I asked her what the hurry was and she said "the electricity is back I gotta go study for my exams who knows how long we have this luxury for". Basically she was killing time talking to me while she was waiting for the electricity to come back so she could get back to her studying. While it made me feel not so great about myself it made me think of how much time we waste because we have no way of utilizing it while the electricity is gone.
In Pakistan everything stops as the lights go out? Whatever people are doing they just drop it and start to look around waiting for the lights to come back on. If you are reading a book you will stop and spend at least a few minutes thinking about what you should do now. Very few times you will get an answer because there is very little that can be done in the dark. Even while taking an exam the lights go off and everyone stops. There is pin drop silence. And as soon as the lights are back even if it's five minutes to turn on the generators the students start to ask for more time for the loss of time because of the electricity. I guess the point I am trying to make is that we are wasting collective time of our nation. Nothing gets done while there is no light. Even if there are generators and UPS there are minimal things running and very little that can be done. Children can't get on the computer and research for their homework. Businesses can't use credit cards. Schools and colleges have teachers leaving classroom without teaching because it's too hot for them to bear.
All of this makes us miss time to do things. We take much longer to accomplish things now compared with before because of the shortage of electricity. Our productivity as a nation is going down because out of the 8 hours we barely have 1 or 2 in which the work can actually get done. The problem is that it may seem like that the whole world is on stand still while the electricity is gone, that's really not the case. Only we are on stand still. While we are waiting for the lights to turn back on time and life is passing us by. We wait and then we start the work while someone somewhere else started the work without any waitt. Of course at the end of the day that person will take the fruits of the hard work we were not able to put in. Time goes on but we stay on a stand still by force. Does that seem fair at all?
People have turned this thing into a joke as well you will hear a person saying that well this is our government's way of telling us to slow down. It is an automatic brake even if one doesn't want it. We have lost so many hours of our lives to this terrible menace of our society and we have no idea how many more we still have to lose.
We have discussed what kind of problems are taking place in our Pakistan because of lack of electricity. Actually everything that I have mentioned above is just the tip of the iceberg. There is so much more that is going on that if we tried to put all of this in one piece of writing it would go on forever. So, we will leave the description of the problem at this point and try to invest the leftover energy in figuring out how we can get to a solution. The question is this is a nationwide problem so to get this solved who do we go to? Do we try to track down the government officials and ask them what should be done? But we have heard plenty of them on television saying that there is nothing that can be done because this shortage of resource is worldwide and everyone feels it. However, we don't see the rest of the world complaining and suffering from the consequences as we are.

great blazer
This is a beautiful blazer! I ordered the size 18 and it fit perfectly! However, the sleeves were a bit too long and I had to have them shortened, which cost me almost $30.00 at the dry cleaners!! It still is a great piece though and I wanted to order the houndstooth plaid but it isn't available anymore in my size. Hope to catch it for the fall.
Ontario, OR
Sizing runs small
I just ordered this jacket in black, and to my disappointment found that the size I ordered is smaller than I expected. Depending on the label brand, the same size can run a little larger, so I was surprised. I even checked the label to be sure the wrong size wasn't shipped in error. So back it goes to be exchanged. Be aware - the sizing on this item can run small, order the next size up!
Plaistow, NH
Nice But Fitted
First, not a great sales price.Petite jacket length is fine, I'm 5'4". Like the grey color. It's a true dark grey, NOT heathered. Sleeves are snug especially upper arm. Have to wear thin long sleeve top underneath. Wool material isn't a good quality. It's a little itchy.
Love it
I just got this in vanilla ice. It was easy to press, fits great and I'll be buying more. I just need to decide the colors! I wear blazers with skirts or suit pants at the office and with jeans and denim skirts for casual. I love Blazers and this is a perfect one due to style and fit to add to my collection. Thank you Chadwick's! Just wish I could find this jacket in a nice light pink. . .
Reno, NV
Great Blazer
I just received my blazer in plaid and it is perfect. I ordered a 10P in this jacket and was a little nervous that it might run small. It was a beautiful fit sleeves are just right and I have room to wear a sweater under and it buttons with no pulls. I hope I can get another one soon. I just love love love it!!!!
Greensburg, PA
Wonderful surprise
I order the 18 in women's - my measurements fit the 20, but I am doing well on Weight Watchers so I ordered down a size - and it fit me perfectly. I was so surprised, because for the price, I didn't expect it to be fully lined and even the underside of the collar is finished beautifully. I had plenty of wiggle room in the bust, shoulders and upper arms - I found the sleeve length just fine, and I am 6'0", and 305 pounds.The fabric is soft too, not at all scratchy. I got the Blackwatch and am now planning on buying the brown tartan. These will be my autumn wardrobe staples this year, and many years to come….
Sleeves are Too Short in Tall Sizes
I ordered a tall size and the sleeves were WAY too short. I had to doublecheck the label to make sure I hadn't ordered a regular by mistake! Tall girls, beware- this jacket is not even close to a proper sleeve length. It's going back. Very disappointed.
Syracuse, NY
Love This Blazer!
This blazer is all I hoped it would be.I LOVE!!!!! the fit, style & quality. It runs true to size, sleeve length is on the mark. I plan to wear it dressed down.....T'neck sweaters, V'neck sweaters, cords & jeans.Thanks,Chadwicks!

Impact of Resident-Focused Education and the Rapid Response Team on Severe Sepsis Patients: Outcomes and Compliance to Treatment Protocol
Avinesh Singh Bhar, M.D., Edison Gavilanes, M.D., Sofya Kostanyan, M.D., Rakhil Rubinova, D.O., Vladimir Sabayev, M.D. F.C.C.P.
Objective:To investigate the impact of resident-focused education and the introduction of the Rapid Response Team (RRT) on the outcomes of severe sepsis patients admitted to the general medical floor (GMF) at the New York Hospital of Queens (NYHQ). In addition we set out to identify compliance to treatment protocols, demographics and prevalence of MRSA & MDR organisms in this patient population.
Method: A retrospective study of severe sepsis patients admitted to the GMF at NYHQ with the RRT called between November 1 and December 31, 2007. Data from the RRT evaluation and medical records including demographics, serum lactate, compliance to treatment protocol (fluid resuscitation, vasopressor support and stress dose-steroid use), culture results, utilization of mechanical ventilation and 30-day mortality were recorded.
A comparison of 30-mortality was made with a cohort of severe sepsis patients prior to the resident-focused education initiative and RRT introduction.
Results: Pending
Conclusion: Pending

CLINTON – The city of Clinton reported a wastewater discharge near Mill Creek and Manufacturing Drive on Monday.
The city has been working since Monday to unplug a sewer line and stop the small discharge coming out of manholes in a wooded area.
Clinton city officials discovered Friday afternoon and reported to the DNR that untreated wastewater was reaching Mill Creek. The discharge location is about 2,000 feet from where a city contractor initially began work to unplug the line.
Work is proceeding slowly, because the area is heavily wooded and a long section of the sewer line is completely plugged. The city plans to work through the weekend to unclog the line and allow wastewater to flow to the treatment plant. They will also work to pump around the blockage and reduce wastewater flowing to the creek.
The clogged pipe is in an industrial area, where there is limited access for children and pets.
The DNR will continue to monitor the situation and consider appropriate enforcement action.

With Giants Fan Fest just a month away, now seems like a good time to discuss it. I did the Fan Fest thing for the first time last year and it was, um, flawed. To say the least. In my opinion. I looked on the internet and saw only glowing reviews of it, so I'm really curious… do you like your team's Fan Fest? Are you planning to go this year? And without further ado, The Good, The Bad and The Ugly in my opinion.
The Good
Going into the press box and seeing the labels for all the different news sources and the view from there was lots of fun.
Going on the field…
…and seeing the view of the stands from the field
The Bad
Which has much more text and fewer pictures = much less fun.
Sort of hectic and unpleasant and for all anyone was doing to speed it along, the lines were very long and slow. I get that there were a lot of people who appreciate and enjoy that you can just go in for free and see whatever you want to see, but that honestly wasn't fun for me or my Fan-Fest-going-partners. I think if it were more guided and concise, it would be more fun for all. Timed tickets, anyone? It's not like I have cash flowing out of my ears or anything, but I would absolutely be willing to pay something if the event was better streamlined. Especially if the parking stayed free.
Some visual aid on the cash coming out of ears thing. Doesn't that guy look exactly like me? Twins separated and birth, I think. And I was delayed for 40 odd years.
Even on a smaller scale, it was just hard to find where anything was or what, exactly, was going on. The workers seemed as genuinely confused as I was. And the way the KNBR booth- which could have been a top attraction- was set up, made it hard to have a good time watching. The Chronicle Live set was way more fun and had TVs set up playing the show so you could see the result of what was going on set. At the KNBR booth, you couldn't hear a thing and there were no radios.
But there was a Tim Lincecum spotting, so how bad could it have been?
The Ugly
I'm not blaming the Giants for this, but the field was like going to the beach. Wet and sandy. And kind of muddy, too. Not prime conditions for my embellished boots. Or my brother's sneakers, for that matter. Just not prime conditions to walk on. It was a little bit ugly.
For all that, I will probably end up going back this year. It's been a long offseason and I don't think I'll be able to pass up a chance to smell some baseball.
Diamond Girl
p.s. You knew I wouldn't end this post without referencing National Whipped Cream Day. I made chocolate mousse with whipped cream. It was really good. But not real whipped cream, I guess, because whipped cream isn't whipped cream at all unless it's been whipped with whips. Willy Wonka is the authority on this one.

For today, I am just going to hand off this this gold nugget of an interview from ESPN Dallas, with Rangers general manager Jon Daniels. It's forty minutes long, so they go more in depth than is usually possible in a radio interview and it also means that you need to go devote forty minutes of your life to it (time well spent, trust me) so I should probably let you go.
But first… I snorted noisily when I heard him say they were committed- again!- to Neftali starting and Joe Nathan being the closer. My sister, sitting nearby, inquired as to the noisy snorting. When I told her, I also added a choice, Who even likes Joe Nathan?! (Sorry, Joe. I'm sure you're a wonderful guy. I was just annoyed at the moment.)
Anyhow, a few minutes later, I got an email with this screen grab from aforementioned sister.
She has appointed herself president of the Official Joe Nathan Fan Club, too.
Don't I possess a fabulous sister?
Diamond Girl
p.s. Go listen. Seriously. Or I will track you down and feed you cupcakes until you die.

NFL Schedule and Tickets
Week 3 of the 2014 NFL season brought some surprises and some close games. We begin with the best game of the day and the most surprising game of the day.
Seattle Seahawks 26, Denver Broncos 20 – Peyton Manning drove his team 80 yards and converted a two point play to send this game into overtime. The Seahawks ended it with a touchdown drive in overtime to end any hopes of manning seeing the field again.
Arizona Cardinals 23, San Francisco 49ers 14 – For the second straight week the San Francisco 49ers blew a game in the second half. Credit a tenacious Cardinals defense that held the 49ers scoreless for two quarters and a workmanlike performance from Drew Stanton. Arizona is playing well, the 49ers, not so much.
The Best of the Rest
Dallas Cowboys 34, St. Louis Rams 31 – When the Rams were up by 21 points it would have been easy to throw in the towel for the Dallas Cowboys. They refused, and Tony Romo led his team back in an amazing comeback victory. There's life in those Cowboys yet.
Philadelphia Eagles 37, Washington Redskins 34 – Kirk Cousins proved an able replacement for RG3 but a 427 yard, 3TD performance wasn't enough as the Philadelphia Eagles rebounded from a 10-point deficit to win their third straight.
New York Giants 30, Houston Texans 17 – Who can figure out the New York Giants? After two miserable weeks, New York looked sharp in beating the Houston Texans.
New Orleans Saints 20, Minnesota Vikings 9 – The Saints got off to a good start, stalled, then came back to life. The Vikings played well defensively but without Adrian Peterson couldn't muster much on the ground. Vikings fans also got a first look at Teddy Bridgewater as Matt Cassell left with a foot injury in the 2nd quarter.
Cincinnati Bengals 33, Tennessee Titans 7 – Everything went well for the Bengals, including a touchdown catch for Andy Dalton. Nothing went well for the Titans.
Baltimore Ravens 23, Cleveland Browns 21 – After beating the Saints on a last second field goal, the Browns were on the other end, losing 23-21 to Baltimore after blowing two field goals and missing an easy touchdown when wide receiver Taylor Gabriel…..fell down.
Detroit Lions 19, Green Bay Packers 7 – The Lions managed a ton of defense and enough offense to beat the Packers 19-7.

This year's theme for Women's History Month is Women's Education – Women's Empowerment. While we often celebrate Women's History Month with images of women like Susan B. Anthony and Amelia Earhart staring proudly into the camera, remembering great women and events that moved women forward in business, society and politics should also recognize improvements made in the nearer past.
At the WBDC, we celebrate a history of 26 years of empowering and educating women business owners, who are breaking through barriers and making their own history. Take a moment to look back at letters from WBDC Co-Presidents Carol Dougal and Hedy Ratner over the last few years. Additionally, the WBDC is proud to share a visual timeline of our organization's past through our newly renovated Facebook Timeline.
2011 "We became standard-bearers in a movement, empowering women through business ownership."
2009 "As fierce advocates of women's economic and business development, now, more than ever, it is vital to showcase and grow the incredible accomplishments of women business owners whose impact on the economy has been seismic."
2007 "We are mindful, however, that reputation does not lead to success; success leads to reputation. And a good reputation leads to great responsibility. We are where we are because we have remained as faithful to our mission in 2008 as we were in 1986, the year we began. While our mission may calibrate as times change, the core remains the empowerment of women through successful business ownership."
2006 "We came from longtime careers and volunteer hours advocating for women's health, education and employment parity. And based on our frontline experience, we knew one thing: Women's empowerment depended upon economic independence. We figured one surefire way to get there was through business ownership.
We had no shortage of clients. The women who entered our doors were single, married, widowed, divorced, with kids or childless. What they had in common was ambition, drive and a desperate need for business skills, role models, encouragement and support."
2004 "In 2003, over 34% of all businesses in the Chicago metropolitan area are women-owned, and women of color own one in five of these businesses. Naturally, there are an estimated 6.2 million women-owned businesses generating $1.15 trillion in sales and employing 9.2 million workers.
Within this context, the Women's Business Development Center continues as a national leader and innovator in economic development and empowerment of women. We remain steadfast in our dedication to generating economic opportunities and an enhanced quality of life for women and their families."
Share these empowering quotes with others and let it be reiterated that every month is Women's History Month!

Great Pants
I have this leather pant in black. It is great very suprised of the quality of leather. The leather is very soft. I recommend this pant to anyone looking for a leather pant.
Jacksonville florida
I bought the suit in Red and ordered a black jacket too. The fit is fabulous. It runs true to size and is extrememly comfortable. I was skeptical at first, but I am so glad I ordered them. I am going to order in brown and the black pants too. I think you will be thrilled with your purchase. Elegant, sleek, and easy on your budget!
Columbus, OH
Gorgeous, part II
I know I already reviewed this pant, but I just received this pant in Ruby and had to rate it! They are beautiful!!! I ordered at the same time as the leather blazer, and whoever packed my package really matched the colors of the pants and jacket PERFECTLY (unless they came from the same dye lot...but all leather dyes differently)!! The ruby pants are the same superior quality as the previously rated black and chocolate ones; the lining, btw (they are fully lined) is high quality, not thin, cheap stuff. These are classic and beautifully made to last a lifetime!
Los Angeles, Ca
I ordered these first in black; when they arrived, I was completely impressed beyond belief at the quality! The leather is *almost* butter-soft; really extremely well constructed! I ordered another pair in brown and they were on par with the black ones. These leather pants are gorgeous on, true to size and are a lot of bang for your buck! I've seen other leather pants elsewhere for twice to up to four times the cost of these and they could not hold a candle to Metrostyle's leather pants! I'm getting two more pair!!

From Quantification to Conversation
Ed. by Borin, Lars / Larsson, Staffan
Series:Trends in Linguistics. Studies and Monographs [TiLSM] 207
Aims and Scope
This collection of papers offers an overview of current research in formal and computational linguistics with a focus on semantics, i.e., the study of meaning. The topics covered range from theoretical treatments of quantification phenomena in natural language to concrete issues in language technology and dialogue systems. This indicates the wide scope of formal and computational semantics, and also gives an indication of the historical development and shift in focus of formal semantics over the last three-or-so decades, since its modern origin in the work of Richard Montague in the early 1970s. In a development which could hardly have been predicted given its ivory-tower beginnings, formal semantics has recently started to become of practical (and thus commercial) interest, and is beginning to have effects on our everyday lives in the form of language technology.
Firstly, computational semantics has recently been touted as a fundamental prerequisite to the next step in the development of the internet, the "Semantic Web". Secondly, conversational human-computer interfaces is a fast-growing sector in industry as well as in academia, and there is a general realisation that these systems need a proper account of semantics to move beyond the simple slot-filling dialogues of present-day commercial systems.
While the more abstract topics of early formal semantics have never quite dropped out of sight for academics, these recent developments have arguably led to a resurgence of interest in the theoretical puzzles related to quantification and situational interpretation in natural language. Formal and computational semantics are thus very much alive, and the future looks bright.

OWENSBORO, Ky. (11/3/13) — Saturday, October 26, was a family affair on stage on off, as baby boomers and their families came out in droves to see Mickey Dolenz of The MonKees and Peter Noone's 1960s hitmakers, Herman's Hermits. The crowd roared with applause as opening act Dolenz introduced his sister, Coco, who performs as one of his backup singers.
The onstage family fun continued when Peter Noone introduced his daughter, Natalie Noone. Natalie lives in Nashville and has her own band The Maybes. She told the audience, "I just came to see my dad, and here I am on stage with someone else's shiny blue guitar."

Customer Raves & Reviews
Beautiful quinceañera invitations
Enchanted Rectangle Invitations I was a little hesitant at first about ordering the invitations online. I had offered to purchase and order them for my little cousin's Sweet 15th. My aunt, uncle, and neice LOVED them when they saw them. My aunt was also nervous on how they were going to come out at first until she saw the final product. The Delivery was also very fast. I was very surprised and impressed. Let's just say when the time comes to order invitations for any special occasion I will order from here again. Thank you MagnetStreet for a wonderful and easy experience and transaction.
beautiful save the date
Enchanted Quinceanera Save the Date Magnets These came out great! Size is good..colors are beautiful....my daughter loves them
Enchanted Quinceanera Save the Date Magnets The colors seems to run into the picture. I had yellow so my daughters face looks yellowish. Overall nice for a save the date.
Magical Night Rectangle Invitations I ordered invitations for my daughters quinceanera. When I ordered they said they would be delivered around the 20th of May. I was so surprised to receiving them on the 17 of May less then 7 days. Fast service and delivery with wonderful results I would recommend to all my friends.
Excellent service and fast delivery
Magical Night Quinceanera Save the Date Magnets Overall excellent job. I will order again in any future needs.

Thankful Friday
by jwhatcott Whatcott
This morning I went into the kitchen at work and found a case of imported beer on the table. It's not an uncommon sight at Acquia on a Friday - as we normally have a little relaxation time as a team before the weekend begins.
Now I'm an exotic ginger ale guy myself (every open source company should have at least one). But for some reason this box of beer caught my eye. Upon investigation, I discovered a nice note from our friends at Development Seed, congratulating us for being named to the Red Herring 100.
They had noticed the win and gone to the trouble to send us a gift. What a great gesture. Thanks guys!
It's great to be part of a community full of so many people who are thoughtful and great to work with.
Cheers to the entire team up there. Looking forward to drinking together in Sveged, if not sooner in our local dive here in DC:).
Keep up the great work,
Er, how is this Planet worthy? Sorry, it's awesome that you get tasty beer and all but what's that got to do with *my* Friday in Drupal-land?
Jeff -- considering the incoherent garbage I read on the planet, I don't think you need to apologize. Bear with me while I point out the obvious (notice I'm not anonymous):
Acknowledging a kind gesture publicly is a nice thing indeed.
Do not be intimidated by the drupal planet police. Anyone who wants to police drupal planet should by no means be allowed the job.
Anyways, I rather enjoyed the entry. It gave me a warm fuzzy feeling.
p.s. beware of those who don't give a name with a comment. They are prone to knavery.
I don't "get" beer myself, and don't care much for it.
But, I think this post is Drupal planet worthy, simply because it shows the cordial and amicable atmosphere that goes on between Drupal shops within the ecosystem.
Enough said ...

"We wanted to create an environment that is Tony," said Elise Jenkins, co-organizer of the event. "He is always a wonderful, strong (barbecue) competitor and frequently won competitions."
Jones has been competing in barbecue competitions since 2007 and has competed in such events as Moosefest, Charlie Boys, Mississippi Delta State Barbecue Contest/Cleveland Octoberfest, The Great Ruleville Roast, DeSoto Shrine Club Annual BBQ, Pig Pickin' and the B.B. King Homecoming Blues, Bikes, and BBQ, of which he is the reigning champion.
He has also been invited to compete at the Memphis Barbecue Network Invitational.
When considering his extensive participation in barbecue competitions, it seems only natural to have one to help raise money for his recovery.
Competitive barbecue is a close-knit family and Jones is like a brother to many of these competitors according to Jenkins, hence the name.
A Battle for our Brother will be judged by the Memphis Barbecue Network and will have three categories including chicken, pork ribs and pork tenderloin.
To enter the competition's three categories participants must pay a $100 fee.
Pork tenderloin must be turned in for judging at 11 a.m., while chicken is to be turned in at 12:15 p.m. and pork ribs at 1:30 p.m.
Pork tenderloin and chicken are "Cook's Choice" and may include some things like stuffing or garnish, but pork ribs must have no garnish when presented for judging.
The winner of the competition will receive a trophy and a winner-take-all cash prize, whose amount is dependent on the number of entries.
Some of the teams that have already signed up to compete are from as far away as Memphis and Olive Branch according to Jenkins.
Contact Jenkins at 662-719-1675 or by email at email@example.com for information on how to enter the competition.
Competitors may also sign up the morning of the competition.
A Battle for our Brother will also have Boston Butts for purchase at the Cleveland Moose Lodge that day for $35 and can be picked up at Noon.
One hundred percent of the profits earned from the sales of Boston Butts at A Battle for our Brother will be donated to the Anthony Jones Benefit Fund to help cover medical and travel expenses.
To pre-order a Boston Butt, please contact Charlie VanDaley at 662-588-1311 or by email at email@example.com.
Some of the items for the competition, such as dry rub, charcoal and some of the Boston Butts have been donated, which will increase the amount that can be donated to Jones' recovery.
"Tony is the kind of guy that if he wasn't in this situation he'd be doing this for someone else," said Jenkins.
"When I first entered the barbecue world, the first time around was just a competition, but the second time it became a way of life," said Jones. "All of the competitors bond together like family and I was very touched when I found out that they wanted to throw this barbecue to help. I'm still touched. I don't know how to thank them enough and once I get back on my feet I will be more than willing to help any of them that need it."
Jones has recently undergone reconstructive surgery but still faces at least three months of non-weight bearing healing before he can start intense physical rehabilitation.
To make a monetary donation to the Anthony Jones Benefit Fund, please mail it to Anthony Jones Benefit Fund c/o Cleveland State Bank P.O. Box 1000 Cleveland, MS 38732 or take donations to any Cleveland State Bank location.

The Making (and Remaking) of Tom Cruise: Cover Preview
In his own words, the star of Knight and Day and Esquire's new 'How to Be a Man' issue on how he figured things out, from forgiving his father to being one. And that whole thing on Oprah's couch.
GET THE APP: Download It Free on Your iPhone, Then Get a First Look at the Full Profile >>
By Cal Fussman
On His Father
"I remember looking at my dad and wanting to understand him. I didn't want to just write the guy off. He was lost. I can't speak specifically in terms of why and how he got to where he was that was his journey. All I can tell you is, he was overwhelmed by life... My mother basically did all the work, and then they got separated and I didn't see him for a long time. He didn't try to help the family financially or spiritually, and I lived with the effects of the chaos."
On the Value of Family
"You hear about people who have lifelong friends. I never was in a place long enough to have them. So that role was filled by my family.
"If anyone was teasing my sisters, I really felt it... I'd create different characters and ad-lib sketches to make my sisters and my mother feel better. I'd try to make them laugh. I'd do Donald Duck as John Wayne. I'd watch Soul Train and imitate the dancers. I guess you can say that's where it started. I always had a dream to be in movies, [my family] didn't say, That's impossible. They laughed."
On Knowledge
"Now, I'd ridden bikes a lot. When I was a kid, I'd set up ramps for jumps, like Evel Knievel, and crash all the time. I'd done it all but never on a minibike. I got on. Of course, all I wanted to do was go fast, so I hit the throttle. I started off by a neighbor's yard, went past our yard, which had a little hump, and suddenly I was airborne... Rrrrrrrrrrr! The minibike is still going. Oh, no, I'm alive... Okay, I'm alive. The minibike was wedged between the bumpers of the two cars. What a lesson: Know before you go. [You don't] have to curb your enthusiasm. Just fill it in with a little knowledge."
On His Big Break
"The audition [for Taps] was in New York. I said one line. That was it. I had long hair at the time, so they said, 'Hold up your hair.' Then 'Thank you.' I don't know why, but... I thought I'd get it. It wasn't arrogance. I had a quarter in my pocket and that was it. I'm telling you: I didn't have bus fare to get back to where my mom was living in Jersey. I remember... standing outside the Holland Tunnel, and hitchhiking.
"I walked up the driveway and saw my mother. It was a distance, but I remember her face. She looked at me and I looked at her, and I thought, I got it."
On Forgiving His Father
"Risky Business had become a hit. I hadn't seen my father in about ten years. I found out he was dying, and I went to see him in the hospital.
"He knew that he'd blown it. There was deep regret. I think he was torturing himself. We tend to do that. All I could do was tell him, 'Look, it's okay.' I wasn't going to live in blame and regret. I wanted to understand what happened. I wanted to understand, so I could answer the question, What can I do to make things better? I looked at my father there dying and thought, How can I not be that guy?"
On the Joy of Work
"We shot [A Few Good Men] in one go. You could sense how it was going to be edited like butter. At a certain point it goes beyond work, which is when it's fun. All I can tell you is, I remember being sad afterward that it was over."
On Being a Father
"I'll never forget the moment I became a dad. But it's hard to describe that level of responsibility, the desire to give such joy. The clarity: Nothing is more important than this. I remember that first night, just staring at Bella. I was checking her every second, just looking at her, feeling that immediate bond. I was probably looking at her so much that I was keeping her up.
"I made a promise to her: All I can do is the best I can. But I'm not going to say I'm gonna do something and then not do it."
On Humanity
"I got to talk to an astronaut and I asked him, 'What's it like going out into space and looking back at the world?' He said that it changed his perspective. Looking back at the world, you think, My God, how small it is. What are we doing? We don't need barriers and borders. But I already understood that. I understood it going from Canada to Kentucky."
On the Oprah Interview
"What happened, happened... I wanted the audience to be happy just like I wanted to make my sisters and my mother happy when I did those skits as a kid. But I'll take responsibility for my actions... Afterward, wild things were being said about me, and once they're in the ether, there's nothing you can do about it. It felt like being the new kid in the schoolyard again and the other kids are whispering and whispering about you and suddenly you hear what they're saying, and you think, What? That didn't happen. Look at the reality of the situation."
On the Oprah Fallout
"There was a confluence of events. My deal with Paramount was up and it wasn't extended. At first it was, Huh? I don't get it. But people have misconceptions about that whole thing, too. Sumner Redstone and I are friends. It's a business."
On Katie Holmes
"Because we do live in a cynical world. It's easy to be cynical. Making the choice not to be cynical is important. You can keep dwelling on what didn't work, or you can figure out how to fix it. Which is what being a parent is all about. You know, I'm married to such a special woman. Every night before we go to sleep, Kate and I look at each other and it's like, How'd we do today?"
On Success
"Those are times you learn a lot about life. You're back to, How do I figure this out? I'd lived through so many different periods in life that I had a good idea. You just get back to work. You move forward. That's what I did. Here we are today. Mission: Impossible IV."
On Suri
"It's come full circle. Now I'll put Suri on a swing and tell her stories when I'm working on a script. I'll start with the beginning of the movie and take her through the story beat by beat. Of course, I make it age-appropriate. She's four years old. But she asks all the right questions: Why does that happen? Those are the bad guys? You're the good guy, right?"
On Teaching His Children Well
"It comes down to the same thing as when I was a kid. Can I create a character that will make her happy, that will make her laugh? And you know what? She makes me get better and better, because she's always asking me to do it again."

Played it, it's awesome. I honestly do not have spoilers because today was hectic, but I'll try to get some pics tomorrow to share. I'll field questions while I play CoC Worlds tomorrow, so feel free to ask.

Posted 05 August 2010 - 05:58 PM
anything...just anything at all would be nice.
The anatomy of the cards for one?
Posted 05 August 2010 - 10:28 PM
Maybe few words about gameplay and card distribiution in Core Set?
Is it all 3x or 1x?
how many cards from 216 are used in game to deck building?
Posted 06 August 2010 - 12:11 AM
3x The One Ring would ruin things a bit for me . Actually, being an Meccg oldie, I liked that a Unique card was Unique, could only have 1 in deck, whereas the LCGs allow 3x in deck, but only one in play per person. Still, both players having The One Ring in play would equally suck monkey balls.

Posted 06 August 2010 - 01:55 AM
Okay, honestly, my first question to the dude in blue was, "how many base sets do I need to buy to get a full playset." The dude's obivious no-clue answer was, "we have not determined that yet." What!? How is it possible that the game is "on the boat" and you have no clue how many copies of the cards are in it?
Okay. Gameplay stuff:
Players take simultaneous turns with one being the Active player, which passes back and forth.
Players are battling a "Quest" deck which is really 3 cards that get progressively harder to beat (have more "hit-points"). Each turn, you flip 1 card per player from the Shadow deck which could be a creature (which blocks for the quest deck), a location (which blocks for the quest deck), or some events which can be really nasty. The tricky part is that the Quest phase and Combat phase are separate events and use separate hero abilities, so I'll describe the hero,s a bit:
In the upper left box of the hero cards there are three stats. The crossed axes is attack, the shield is defence, and the sun is your -I do't remember what it is called- attack on quests.
Before you flip shadow cards you must choose which characters are going on the quest. They exhaust to do this, so they are not available for combat after the quest phase. After you commit, you flip shadow cards. So the shadow may flip more blockers or not. Add up your suns, add up the shadows block, deal any extra suns as "damage" to the quest.
Monsters in the center jump out and attack. They attack first, you chose a blocker and must exhaust to block. If you have anyone left un-exhausted after blocking, you may exhaust to attack back.
That's basically it. Repeat until you die or win. Of course, the demo decks were tuned in the players favor, but I don't think the real game will be.
Also, unique is unique. Players cannot have the same characters in play.
Posted 06 August 2010 - 02:54 AM
Thank you very much for the info.
Is there some "theme" in the game, some sort of visible story/questline or is it all "random" ?
Is the art of all cards as good as we can see on the FF-site ?
It sounds very easy, do you think it will be harder to beat the quests with the complete set ?
PS: I like the "unique"-rule.
Posted 06 August 2010 - 02:55 AM
That's basically it. Repeat until you die or win. Of course, the demo decks were tuned in the players favor, but I don't think the real game will be.
Also, unique is unique. Players cannot have the same characters in play.
Is there region/site movement or usage a of a map to travel across middle earth like MECCG?
Do you have allies/factions like middle earth ccg?
Is there items you can equip/use?
Are there none battle quests?
Is there corruption like MECCG? (carrying to many items ie being greedy makes you succeptable to Sauron's evil)

I don't think the game has even seen a boat yet. Looking at the Upcoming tab from the top of the page, LotR isn't even listed in there yet.

The quests have story written on them. You read one side, then flip, read the rest and do whatever it says. It may give bonuses to things, or put more shadow cards in play or whatever. The demo quest was a travel through Mirkwood. So, there were tons of spiders and such.
There is a "travel" in which locations that come out on a quest, you may travel too. Instead of being a blocker for hte quest, they add hit points to the quest. You may assign damage as you like, so you can chose to kill the location first. The ones I saw did nothing other than block. Really, you must exhaust a hero to travel to the site and you move it up towards the quest stack to signify it is no longer blocking.
The artwork is just as awesome as you've seen.
I did not see any "items" but that does not mean they don't exist. Given the theme, I'm certain they do because there were "attachments" that were themed as blessings or spells.
There is "Thread Level" in this game that is similar to corruption I guess. You start with 3 Heroes and your threat level is the total of their cost (upper right I think.) You gain 1 threat per turn and can play things to reduce or increase threat based on their power. Monsters attack whomever has the highest threat and also will not attack unless a player has threat equal to or greater than the monsters threat (upper right again, I think)
Yes there are allies and factions. Factions mean nothing by themselves, you can combine whatever you want, but there are cards that may only be played on factions. The resourcing of the game is based on your heroes. Each hero generates 1 resource per turn of their "Sphere of Influence." You get to keep leftovers, so the pool builds up. To pay for a card, it's entire cost must be paid with the appropriate sphere's resources.

Cool that sounds more like MECCG but faster. I am definitly interested!
(No, I will not let go of my MECCG cards either. You can play that one solo as well!)

Again: Thank you.
Not so easy at all. I like it.

I'm curious how it will work with extra packs. Will you just add them to the threat deck or do you have to build the threat deck, and if the latter how do you stop yourself from putting easy to beat threats in?

MAybe it will depend on if you like rushing your threat deck o enjoy challenges. I should wait for the complete rule text about deck building thought.

Great to hear some news, looking forward to any pictures and other details about the game.
I can imagine the possibility of assigning the shadow cards point values, so that the ultimate objective would be to try and get the highest score, which would be done by making the toughest shadow deck possible. Or perhaps different FFG designed premade shadow decks for different scenarios. I'm certainly excited to hear more info.

Thanks for the early insights, guys.
As a MECCG player, I've got both my eyes on the internet today, desperate for more info on this game.
LotR LCG sounds less complex than MECCG (which I love, so less complexity is not a plus) but there's enough going on there that I have some hope. Exhausting to travel, exhausting to fight combats that block the quest, exhausting to attack the quest... these are definite echoes of MECCG imho, so... so far, so good! Hope to hear more, more, more!
(and judging by the Horn of Gondor card in the intro article, yes, there must be items that attach to the heroes)

This game has me excited. It sounds right up my alley. Which hero's/allies did they have in the demo decks?

The gencon day 2 video has LotR stuff at 2 min 40 seconds.
