Last Modified: Friday, September 25, 2009 at 1:27 a.m.
Jonathan Edwards of Union is wondering what someone must have been thinking when attaching the words "urgent care" to a medical office name and then requiring that you have an appointment. He says he ran into that problem when his youngest son became ill at school and needed to be seen by a doctor. "Our family doctor was booked up and shorthanded, and the hospital emergency room was out because of costs, and then I thought about Urgent Care, but when I arrived, I was told they were seeing only patients with appointments. That's just crazy," says Mr. Edwards. "I think that if an office is going to advertise itself as an urgent care facility, it should operate as such or change its name. I was forced to take my son to Spartanburg to receive care, and I am disappointed that our emergency room alternative in Union turned me away because I had no appointment."
DO SOMETHING: A Union resident, Dewonna Brandon, saw something on her recent travel on Fernwood-Glendale Road in Spartanburg she says should disturb parents of schoolchildren. "Traffic was backed up, and kids were crossing the street everywhere," she says. "I thought to myself, 'Why are these kids crossing the street by themselves?' As I made my way through traffic, I saw the crossing guard at the end of the school zone. I don't have kids in that school, but I hope it doesn't take a kid to get hit to get something done about this."
NO HELP: Dave Luttrell of Cowpens says the Legislature has "done it to the taxpayers" of South Carolina again. "These lawmakers passed a law that allows developers and contractors to pay property taxes on their land only, not on their unsold homes and buildings. This is special legislation and does not benefit the majority of taxpayers," he fusses. "The governor vetoed the bill, but lawmakers overrode him. Maybe we are asking the wrong elected official to resign."
ODDS AND ENDS: The 27th annual Sparkle City Rod Run will bring some neat classics to the Marriott in Spartanburg this weekend, beginning today at 9 a.m. The event will continue Saturday with more car shows and entertainment, and Sunday is awards day. Come on out for a look at these nifty cars.
The Boiling Springs High School stadium will be more active than a just disturbed fire ant hill Saturday when the annual Festival of Bands, featuring bands from across the state, gets under way. Gates open at 11 a.m., and awards will be presented at 9:30 p.m. It's going to be a fun-filled day for the entire family.
Spartanburg's Greek Festival, with loads of entertainment, delicious foods and activities for all ages, cranks up today at 11 a.m. at St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church on Asheville Highway. The popular event, which will benefit Mobile Meals, will continue Saturday and Sunday.

Golf Accessories for your US Open Weekend
San Francisco's Olympic Club hosts the US Open this week, and if history is any indication, it's going to be an unpredictable and extremely difficult course for the contestants. Forbes magazine notes, "The U.S. Open has been contested at The Olympic Club 4 times previously (1955, 1966, 1987, 1998), and only 4 golfers total across those 4 tournaments finished the tournament below par."
So if you're headed to down to spectate, here are a handful of accessories that will keep you looking smooth while the course is looking rough. (And, for anyone playing their own round this weekend, check out the Mulholland gear.)
Tokens & Icons Golf Ball Cufflinks — $150
Tokens & Icons Golf Club Bottle Opener — $60-$75
Mulholland Brothers Divot Repair — $40

Jared- couldn't use because we have a close friend named Jared and I don't like naming my kids after people we know lol My daughters middle name is Michelle and my cousin... apparently that's also her middle name but I had NO clue until after DD was born and the birth certificate was filled out and my cousin said OMG YOU NAMED HER AFTER ME!!! lol
Logan- LOVE it!
Connor- coached gymnastics for several years and there was a girl named Connor who was a total PITA lol
Gavin- DH vetoed that one because he said it would make him think of Gavin Rosdale or however you spell his name, from Bush
Cole- Not my favorite, plus I went to elementary and middle school with a Cole and he was... not nice...
Micah- I LOVE the name. But I know someone here who is having a boy next month and naming him Micah. Now, granted we aren't real close to these people and we're moving to Tennessee before our baby is born but we're in a very small aviation community in the military and the girl WOULD find out about us naming our son the same thing she named hers and I'd rather not go there if you know what I mean. :rofl:

has posted up two new videos today showcasing Smart As, which hits PS Vita on October 30th, 2012.
To quote: We're launching PS Vita's all-new social brain training game, Smart As, on October 30th in North America.

Cooper Tire & Rubber Company Reports Record Fourth Quarter And Full Year 2012 Results
Cooper Tire & Rubber Company (NYSE: CTB) today reported results for the fourth quarter and full year 2012. Fourth quarter net sales were a record $1.1 billion, an increase of $24 million, or 2%, compared with the same period a year ago. Operating profit was a fourth-quarter record of $124 million, $65 million higher than fourth quarter 2011 and 11.7% of net sales. The company reported net income attributable to Cooper Tire & Rubber Company of $1.15 per share, or $73 million in the fourth quarter. This compares with $32 million, or $0.51 per share, for the same period last year, excluding the one-time, non-cash impact of $177 million, or $2.82 per share, in 2011 due to the release of most of the company's valuation allowance against U.S. deferred tax assets and related expense effects.
"A strong fourth quarter capped off a great year," said Chief Executive Officer Roy Armes. "Cooper Tire closed 2012 with record fourth quarter and full-year net sales and operating profit. Despite challenging global economic and industry conditions, our employees around the world continued to execute our strategic initiatives including diversifying our channel and product mix for light vehicle tires as well as expanding volumes in the truck-bus radial tire segment. Due in large part to successful product launches and demand for our products, the company has increased unit volumes and outpaced the industry in our key markets for the full year. Among other achievements in our International segment during 2012, we completed the purchase of tire manufacturing assets in Serbia, a facility that has already produced its one millionth tire and was responsible for driving volume growth for the total International segment in the fourth quarter."
Fourth quarter profits compared to the prior year were positively impacted by lower raw material costs of $101 million, manufacturing efficiencies of $9 million, volume increases totaling $5 million and $2 million in lower product liability costs. These profit contributors were partially offset by $25 million in unfavorable price and mix, and $20 million in higher selling, general and administrative costs as the company continued to invest in expanding distribution networks and promoting Cooper brands. "Other" costs increased $6 million including higher pension expense. Higher incentive compensation costs, resulting from higher profits, affected both selling, general and administrative costs and "other" costs.

RDA Microelectronics Enters Into Definitive Merger Agreement To Be Acquired By Tsinghua Unigroup For US$18.50 Per ADS
SHANGHAI, China, Nov. 11, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tsinghua Unigroup Ltd. (" Tsinghua Unigroup"), an operating subsidiary of Tsinghua Holdings Co., Ltd., a solely state-owned limited liability corporation funded by Tsinghua University in China, and RDA Microelectronics, Inc. (Nasdaq:RDA) (" RDA" or the " Company"), a fabless semiconductor company that designs, develops and markets wireless systems-on-chip and radio-frequency (RF) semiconductors for cellular, connectivity and broadcast applications, today jointly announced that they have entered into a definitive merger agreement under which Tsinghua Unigroup will acquire all of the outstanding ordinary shares of RDA for US$18.50 per American Depositary Share (or US$3.0833 per ordinary share, each American Depositary Share representing six ordinary shares). The merger values RDA's equity at approximately US$910 million, on a fully diluted basis. The purchase price represents a premium of approximately 33.3% over the closing price of RDA's American Depositary Shares on September 26, 2013, the last trading day prior to the announcement by RDA of the receipt of a preliminary non-binding proposal letter to acquire RDA from a third party.
The transaction is subject to approval by the shareholders of RDA, and antitrust and other regulatory approvals, and is not subject to any financing condition. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2014.
The Company's Board of Directors unanimously approved the merger agreement and recommends that the Company's shareholders vote to approve the merger agreement. RDA expects to hold a special meeting of its shareholders to consider and act upon the proposed transaction as promptly as practicable. Details regarding the record date for, and the date, time and place of, the special meeting will be included in a press release when finalized.
"We are very excited to be adding RDA to the Tsinghua Unigroup family of companies," commented Mr. Zhao Weiguo, Chairman and President of Tsinghua Unigroup. "RDA will complement our existing portfolio in consumer products, protection and support and will benefit from our vast IP library and unique access to important capital markets in China."Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Perhaps in Miami, they'll pull out some 2 Live Crew or KC & the Sunshine Band. "That's a good one," he says with a laugh. "KC & the Sunshine Band would be fantastic. Thanks — you've just given me an idea."
Whether Hansard takes us up on the dare is anyone's guess. What's certain, however, is that he and Irglová will perform much of the keen sonic wonder that is Strict Joy. It's an incredibly accomplished album, and it also happens to find the Swell Season expanding its sound beyond its initial pining quietude. So expect a certain soar to the proceedings when the two swing into town.
But the Fillmore is only one of several world stages they'll hit before the year ends. Also on tap are Nashville's Ryman Auditorium, the Hollywood Bowl, and London's Royal Albert Hall. And though it's an admittedly intimidating array of venues, Hansard knows just how to handle that kinda situation.
1700 Washington Ave.
Miami Beach, FL 33139
Category: Music Venues
Region: South Beach
"We played the Royal Albert before, and that was incredible. It was quite intimidating, to be honest. There are very few rooms in the world where the room is a bigger star than you are," he says. "But like anything that's legendary, you have to have a little touch of disrespect for it, just a healthy amount. And you've gotta sorta go, 'Fuck you. I'm here to do my thing, and this room is mine tonight.'"
And if the Swell Season can conquer the Royal Albert, surely it'll take on the Fillmore Miami Beach too. After all, both venues have seen some of our most inspired performers take their stages. And each is suitably hallowed ground for a sound that's at once winsome and wily, intimate and divine.

Featured news
For example, years ago, a new service request required a hole to be punched in a single firewall. But, todays multi-layer approach means that ACLs and rule changes not only affect firewalls, but also integrated routers and switches. When multiple vendors are thrown into the mix, the challenges rapidly start to skyrocket.
The complexity of todays networks is a challenge, but it is also leading to a new dynamic in IT organisations: a blurring of the boundaries.
Blurring the boundaries
The roles of those responsible for protecting an organisations IT network infrastructure have, historically, been clearly defined, with security teams managing the firewalls and network teams managing the routers and switches. But as networks are becoming bigger, broader, and more complex, security teams and networking teams are collaborating, passing tasks from one team to the other.
Collaboration is a good thing. But, the downside is that security teams or networking teams individually are not likely to have the specified knowledge or experience necessary to carry out these blended tasks. Involving networking teams in changing rules and ACLs, for example, can take a considerable amount of time and involve a significant risk of error. This risk is further increased when you consider that the networking team is highly unlikely to be familiar with the various subtleties and nuances in syntax used by different vendors.
Security teams, on the other hand, often set internal policies governing best practices that will impact the network team. Challenges and frustration can grow if the network team does not have the expertise or time to implement the actions required of it, and the security team might not be given the auditing information it needs to verify that these actions have been carried out correctly. In addition, due to a potential lack of knowledge, the networking team might be unable to deliver the proof points needed by the security team.
Frustration and challenges
So not only can this situation cause companies costly delays and put networks at risk, it has introduced new tensions for the teams concerned, changing their internal relationships.
We met a security practitioner at an industry tradeshow recently, who told us that he is responsible for his companys firewalls and ACL rule changes, but that most requests these days require changes to both the firewalls AND the integrated routers. While he can make the changes to the firewalls, he cant touch the routers, as thats the job of the network team, and he can only give them the requirements in the hope that they are implemented correctly. And, should something break, the company has different teams with different skills trying to figure out what went wrong.
It might be time then to consider the actions that IT team leaders ought to take in order to help restore the balance between the two teams. Ideally, of course, each team would have all the necessary training and expertise it needed to enable it to work across multiple vendors - to understand their individual syntaxes, and the nuances between network and security devices.
However, this isnt likely for most organisations.
We would suggest therefore that companies should consider automated network control as a means of reducing the risks, saving time and alleviating the inter-departmental stresses brought about by this situation.
Automating the network
At its most basic, successful network security control depends on knowing what is connected and how it is configured.

Re: E32 Whisker pole
I use my whisker pole pretty frequently when going downwind w my genoa. It's really easy to do a quick rig - that is, clipping it onto the bowline at the clew, threading it between the two front shrouds, and clipping it to the spinnaker ring on the front of the mast. I can do that in about 45 seconds, and in fact did so Monday on a shor tdownwind run.
When I will be going downwind for a long spell, I also rig a downhaul from the clew to a snatch block on the toe rail. I find if I keep the clew low I get better sail shape. As well, having the clew pitch up and down for hours at a time is annoying.

The problem is if you want to jump the gap, the requirement is that need to be lacking 2 of the following:
-full time job -girlfriend -social life I was over there once, on it every night, fearsome with my VSS, admining Bit-tech's server. That was when I just got a full time job, didn't have a social life or girlfriend. Now I have all 3, I am on the casual side of the gap. Don't really want to jump into multiplayer games anymore, knowing I'll have my backside handed to me on a well dressed plate. Single player game and occasional Super Smash Bros / Mario Kart with friends is all I do. still yet to finish Black Mesa........

I think half the reason I love Half-Life so much is that there's nobody pushing me towards multiplayer. I'd love to play Portal 2's co-op but don't want to play with a stranger and have no friends I can arrange the time with.

Fortunately for me the only multiplayer game I ever play is TF2 and despite being no where near my peak a few years ago its still casual enough and luck based that I can pick it up after not played any games for a few months and be competitive on public servers. Never did get into "competitive" play.

There's these things called MMORPGs that are multiplayer on the one side and don't require lot's of time on the other side.
Stop thinking FPS or RTS, where you need to invest lots of time to get good at or to train for. There's tons of casual MMORPGs, where you can hop in for an hour or two and just have some fun.

Only game I've ever tried to take seriously is TF2, and for that there are enough competitive levels for most people who want to try it to have a real go
I understand what you mean, no other game has made me want to try and take it more seriously, it's also one of the few multiplayer games I play.

I think what really bugs me about trying to step your game up is the never ending torrent of abuse or urine extraction because of a mistake, there's only so many times you can take "you ****king idiot" or screams of "noob" before it gets off putting and you begin to give up.

This article didn't turn out how I expected but was still an interesting read.
Personally, I like multiplayer games BUT i don't like it when MP is basically forced on you. I don't want to buy a game with a 5 hour campaign and no other offline mode, not even bots. Not to sound egotistical but most people I play against online aren't worth my time. They're either boringly easy or professional to the point that they've been accused as cheaters. In most online games or even leader board games, i tend to fall in the top 10-15%. Humans are also surprisingly predictable. I like playing multiplayer matches against bots only because you either need a really good plan or it just takes pure skill to win rather than tactics. Tactics are fine but no plan is good enough if you don't have the skill to carry it out. My main gripe about the MP games i dislike the most, such as COD or need for speed (the new ones) is they use MP probably because their programmers either suck too much or are too lazy to make a competitive bot. Of course I could be wrong but the short campaign really gives me a "don't care" vibe from the devs. |

Multi player modes are nothing but a trojan horse for DLC and micro transactions.
It's why I don't play anything but the amazing WWII Mod Forgotten Hope 2. |

I quoted the wrong person, but in regards to seizures most commonly in kids that young its caused by a high fever. I'm pretty sure you are supposed to take the kid to the ER then...
And strangely, Xanax is classified as a benzodiazapene and other drugs in the same drug class are prescribed for seizures, like Klonopin.
Also, someone asked how much would be too dangerous for a Cylee...the answer is probably not that much. I was prescribed it for panic attacks, I only need to take it about once a month but I am always afraid to because I am on the smallest dose and it can really knock me off my feet.
Also, in my opinion the name Zenaida "Zanny" has nothing to do with Xanax...I've known women by that name...well not the whole one. I still don't see where it fits in the picture though.
This is so creepy.
Good night everyone. Hug your children, and trust no one - except those of us here at WebSleuths!!! I am tired and have another long day ahead. I am pissed that we don't have an answer yet. Keep up your good work. Wish I could help more, but believe me when I say that what you are doing matters - it does! Otherwise, cases like this would go into a box of evidence in the basement. We demand an answer.
I seem to always agree with absolut..... LOL you are one smart person! Anyhoo...
You hit on what I have only just begun to realize...that casey was not prepared for how fast this was going to go down. She did not think amy would find out so quickly about the theft, that her car had been sent back to daddy (I bet she never thought ahead to those small details that businesses will tow a car since she never had a job), that her mother would actually call the cops and not believe her nanny lie. She was caught completely off guard (eeehheeemm...clears throat...thanks to gma...ok I said it).
And it fits that her lies escalated just like our new poster has talked about with her own son that has the same issues with lying. She backed herself into a complete corner.
So what she said in that arrest afadavit...they are all lies. But they have to be based on something that she knows from somewhere. LE will untangle it all...
They need to work with a psychiatrist or forensic psychologist who can in turn work with the family to unravel the lies. (and with friends as well)
This bee my opinion
Don't be sorry for your actions. You made your point with your daughter and the point stands because it was RIGHT.
As for the people in question in this thread (Casie and Caylee), they seem to be living in such an alternate reality that I just can't follow them. Should you need help in those five minutes alone with Mom or GM, let me know. We might get their feet back on the ground so they know again what is REALLY going on. A child is missing. It's about the child, not them. Someone needs to slam their fist on the table and end this incredible charade.
Good night. May our dreams give us inspiration to unravel this sad tale.
Her daughter's reputation didn't have far to go to tank, if you ask me. Cindy wants to believe the "perfect family" she created in her mind is still intact and wants to project this to the world at all cost, imo. She needs to wake up to the fact that their reputation is the last thing that matters now. Finding that darling baby is!

What I post are my opinions only.
ss..read back from around thread 5 or 6 to geez...it was discussed quite a bit and quite in depth. One poster linked that xanax is called a ZANNY. There were a lot of posts on it and, in my opinion, it was not out of question. Zanny the Nanny. I know it is sick. but anything is possible here and there were so many hours this kid was with her mom at parties... anyhoo.. that is where it is coming from.
This bee my opinion
OCCAM'S RAZOR : "All other things being equal, the simplest solution is the best."
Why would Cass feel safe at Amy's boyfriends house, yet she claimed she was worried about where Caylee went and says nothing? Why would Amy's boyfriend allow her to hang there so long, boy her friends seem flaky. Did he not have a job? Was this not Amy's boyfriend and not Cass's boyfriend? Wonder if Amy called GMA and told her about the stolen funds on top of GMA receiving a tow car letter? I really think GMA was angry about the car and possibly Amy's loss and that is really why she showed up, she then realized Caylee was not with Cass. Shame Cass could look her mother in the eye and continue to lie about her own daughter Caylee. That is not worry or concern.
How can all of her friends fall for the nanny bit for so long? Unless nanny was cece (GMA) in their minds. How did Caylee reference GMA to Cass's slew of friends, was it really CeCe or Nanny? Wonder if Cass has a split personalitiy? She had to have been given a drug test in jail.

you found a link for if the stain was blood? I read your other post, tho, about the breakdown of proteins producing the two byproducts (which are enzymes) p and c. Thanks for reposting that. I am not trying to ther_beatingA_Deadlol..I just thought you didn;t understand the science part of it...and being a nurse I was just trying to explain. Sorry in advance!
This bee my opinion
I think the babysitter story would hold some amount of truth if Casey had a job.
So I believe since nothing of Caylee's is missing she died or was killed on June 16th and buried in the backyard probably under the playhouse. Casey avoided but kept tabs on the house and gma and gpa whereabouts and knew when they were going on vacation or when they would be away. Then they locked the shed on her and she had to borrow a shovel to move Caylee to the trunk. From there who can be sure where Casey headed, but Jacksonville 140 miles away with a already decomposing body would affect the trunk. (weekend of 21-22nd would fit) alone is a possibility (jeff hopkins going is probably another lie) and then the car left at the Amscot on the 27th. Got a ride from the Amscot probably from Amy and went on with her life avoiding gma and the house. This theory basically dumps the call from Jesse to Casey on the 24th. Something caused an instant behavior change in Casey on the 16th. No more interaction with gma in person no clothes for the kid nothing.
Reannan~ I have to agree. Casey has been spoiled beyond reason and allowed to lie, cheat, steal, then have her mom clean up her messes for her each time, imo. Of course, this is one mess that mom can't fix no matter how hard she tries. No amount of deceit, money, or manipulation is going to get Casey out of the position she has put herself in. They are both getting the surprise of their lives now. This is reality and not the world they created for people to see anymore.
I would give you ten minutes alone with the both of them! Take your time!

goodnight everybody. I hope to see something happen tomorrow. And goodnight little Caylee. I am thinking of you...
This bee my opinion
She was given a ride by another girl who was also said to be a best friend. Amy knew Cassy had a car so why turn over your keys wonder what the excuse was mommy took it back. I also thought she may have moved Caylee her tattoo after the fact can also mean beautiful place>

I remember being thrown in the deep end by some other kids. We used to go there lots of times when I was a kid. I was born in 1956 and lived in Aldershot until I was 11 years old. Don't know if its still open anymore? Summer at the pool was lovely when it was very hot - not like our summers now!

Advertising/Sales Issues
Read Complaint Details
Additional NotesComplaint: I have had a few minor issues with Erhlich. As far as being told that I would have nissan sync in my car as well as ******* radio and it was NOT in my car. My husband and I wasted four days trying to figure out something I was told I had. I had taken it back to the lot and my sales rep had no idea what she was talking about obviously because she had to get someone else to come tell us what I was told was in my car wasn't. I let this slide. I was also suckered into a higher payment which is OKAY I dealt with that because, the negotiation was so disgraceful they wouldn't even budge a dollar. I let this slide.... ONE THING I will not let slide is that I asked ***** WHEN my plates were coming and HOW she told me they would be in the mail and that was all she could tell me. WRONG! I ended up getting a letter saying I have 30 (Now less than two weeks because, of ehrlichs mistake and sloppy paper work) days to come up with 500.00 for plates, emissions, licensing,and, title. (Which is why I paid a ridiculous dealer fee on my loan right?) Obviously. Oh and to be in ******* as well!!!!!!!!!!!! I also had told every one in the office and we initialed the paper work that our address was WRONG! This letter never made it to us but, luckily a NEIGHBOR caught your mistake so I am blind sided with this!!! I am so beyond livid with Ehrlich. NO returned phone calls. ***** reads my messages and does not respond. I have been told so many things by ehrlich and so many things have turned out another way. I don't feel this is exactly karens fault but, I feel it's poor employee training. I have never had a dealership do this to me! I am also so livid because, I called Nissan finance and they said I HAVE to deal with your lot that YOU should've taken care of all of this. I am so fed up with the drama this car has brought my life. Also, You also put my mother inlaw as the MAIN buyer on my car loan with out either of our permission. I was never explained or told this. Very disappointing. VERY. I was told that I was only on the second line because you are equal in colorado.... What a lie! Desired Settlement: I would like my registration, title, emissions, and, licensing taken care of. Had Ehrlich/***** had been honest with us in the FIRST place I would've planned accordingly and most likely walked out of the dealership to some where else that would've taken care of this. I am so beyond upset that our paper work was butchered and I was blind sided with this paper TWO weeks before this money is DUE and I have to be in ******* to take care of it. It has ruined our vacation to Iowa . I am very disappointed in you guys. I have sent family AND friends your way and I know for a fact I have had at least ONE friend purchase a car and my mother in law was going to come up and buy a vehicle as well and I am not sure I am going to let her with the bait and switches I have been dealing with. I am truly disgusted and would appreciate this is taken care of in a VERY fast manner. Business Response: We paid ****** ******** plate fees, $426. This dispute has been settled and customer agrees. |

Problems with Product/Service
Read Complaint Details
Additional NotesComplaint: Excessive wait time I was towed in. I told the service dept it was either battery or the solenoid. I was told it would be 40 minutes till it was looked at. That was fine. Well... After bring informed it was a battery, it took over 3 hours to stop a battery in! Then they told me that I had an important recall re suspension that was important to take care of ASAP but they didn't have time to do it. They also told me the brake fluid was dirty but didn't have time to change it. I had been there all day without anyone talking to me other than myself going in the area to inquire. Very poor customer service. Desired Settlement: A heartfelt sincere apology and a reason why I should ever deal with nissan again. Business Response: Business Response /* (1000, 5, 2013/07/25) */ **** ***** our Service Director spoke with ***** and informed her that we were sorry for the delay in servicing her vehicle and lack of communication. We ordered parts for the Safety Recall on her car and offered to pick up her vehicle and give her a replacement rental vehicle free of charge. She seemed to be very happy with the resolution and looked forward to getting her safety recall fixed and appreciated us picking up her vehicle and offering a free rental. Consumer Response /* (-5, 8, 2013/07/26) */ As part of the resolution the maintenance on vehicle that is due ( ie brake flush) was also offered free of charge and it was promised that the vehicle would be returned to me cleaned. |

Rated 5 out of 5 by Claudia from Exactly what I was looking for! When visiting a friend I fell in love with the sheets on the bed. Unfortunately the store that she had purchased them has closed. So I was on the hunt for soft snugly white sheets and I found them here! Be warned these do wrinkle since they are cotton. I iron the pillow cases but they feel great & are well worth the few minutes it takes. Sheets stayed true to size after washing and I love the fitted pillow case. Have always found the extra material hanging off the edge of a pillow case sloppy when making the bed. If you put the sheets on the bed right out of the drier they smooth right out. I plan on buying another set!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Doug from Great sheets - Interesting pillow cases I read the reviews of these before I purchases, and noticed quite a few people commenting on the size of the pillow cases. In fact, when I first put the pillowcases on my bed, I at first thought the same thing and was a little perturbed. However, a few days later while making my bed, I noticed that the pillows include a flap pocked in the opening so that they fit the whole way around the pillow very snug. This is a small but great feature that actually keeps the case on snug without much shifting and I couldn't be happier. The overall feel to the sheets is great and they don't seem to wrinkle super easily. Overall, I am impressed.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Gdog from Mini pillow cases! I just bought theses organic sheets, and of course washed them before I put them on the bed. I wish I hadn't - the pillow cases are ridiculously small, as the other reviewer noted, like unusable small, so now I have to go out and buy a pillow set for our bed. I will not be buying them from CB2 that's for sure!

Best of both worlds: George Clooney is talented behind the camera as well as well in front of it.
Directing is top priority for the suave actor.
ASKED what it's like to be buddies with The Monuments Men star and director George Clooney, actor Matt Damon smiles and explains it can be a little annoying.
"It's like God said 'Maybe this time I'll give one of them everything. I'll make him handsome. As he gets older, I'll make him look even better,'" says Damon, who calls Clooney "obscenely talented" as a director as Clooney hands him US$20 bills.
The payoff is done merely for a laugh.
Clooney has already shown he's got just as much talent behind the camera as in front of it with Confessions Of A Dangerous Mind, Good Night, And Good Luck, Leatherheads and The Ides Of March. The Oscar-winning actor's latest project highlights Clooney's continuing goal to find stories that others would never attempt.
"We're always interested in stories that are unique and no slam dunks for the studio to make. It will require us to sort of pick it up and carry it in. It's hard to make films like this. It took us a long time to get Argo (on which he was producer) made. With Good Night, Good Luck, I mortgaged my house to make it," Clooney says. "We are just trying not to do films where everyone would walk in and say, 'Yeah, that's an easy one.'
"Sometimes they are successful and sometimes they aren't. But they are the films we want to make."
Military movies have a good track record. But, as per Clooney's mandate, The Monuments Men is about more than opposing forces shooting at each other. The film, based on the true story of the greatest treasure hunt in history, looks at a group of seven over-the-hill, out-of-shape museum directors, artists, architects, curators and art historians sent to the front lines during WWII to rescue the masterpieces stolen by the Nazis.
Damon, Bill Murray, John Goodman, Jean Dujardin, Bob Balaban, Hugh Bonneville and Cate Blanchett also star.
Clooney knows saving art doesn't sound that exciting, but this is more than a film about art lovers.
"What we have to remind people is what we're talking about isn't just these paintings on the wall that some people can look at and some can't. But it's also about culture. It's about the fabric of a culture. It's mankind's way of recording history," Clooney says.
Blanchett, who plays a woman who holds the key to the secret location of thousands of priceless pieces of stolen art, saw Clooney's passion for this story when he pitched her the idea. She sees The Monuments Men as a reflection of Clooney's love of acting and directing accented by the humanitarian work he's done.
Being behind the camera for The Monuments Men is a thrill for Clooney. Of all the parts of filmmaking the he's involved in, directing is a primary love.
It's been three years since Clooney directed The Ides Of March, a delay caused by the amount of time it takes for him to find, prepare, shoot and edit a film. In the dozen years since he directed Confessions Of A Dangerous Mind, Clooney worked in front of the camera as a way of perfecting his directing skills.
"All you are trying do is learn from the people you work with and I've worked with some very talented directors," Clooney says. "You look at what they are doing and steal it. You keep slugging away at it. I don't know if I'm improving as a director but it's evolving in different directions."
His heart may be behind the camera, but in a world full of actors Clooney is one of the few who can be called a movie star. That status didn't come overnight. It was built on a career full of guest-starring and starring roles on TV shows like Hotel, Murder, She Wrote and Baby Talk. It wasn't until he played the charming Dr. Ross on ER 20 years ago that his star status became clear.
It was a lot of work to get to where he is today and Clooney has no regrets.
"When you start out as an actor, you're just trying to get a job," he says. "I wasn't really motivated to be the sixth banana on The Facts Of Life. But I was thrilled to have the job.
"Things just change as time goes on." – The Fresno Bee/McClatchy-Tribune Information Services
