How to Measure for a 2-on-1 Headrail:
Outside Mount:
Inside Mount:
All Mounting Hardware Included!
Steel brackets snap into place, making shades very easy to install!
Top Down/Bottom Up: The shade can be lowered from the top and raised from the bottom. Thus, the shade can be positioned anywhere in the window. Separate controls on each side of the shade control the rails independently. The shade is measured the same way as a standard shade.
Top Down Only: The fabric lowers from the top of the shade only. The bottom rail does not operate. Measure this shade as a standard shade.
Continuous Cord Loop System: A pulley system where the cord length is always the same. A simple pull on the control cord positions the shade at the exact height desired.
Cordless System: The elimination of lift cords make the shade child and pet safe. Simply raise and lower your shade by pushing down and pulling up on the bottom rail. The spring-motor activation offers easy operation. A handle is provided with every cordless shade.
Cordless Top Down/Bottom Up: Combine Levolor's Cordless lift system with Top Down/Bottom Up engineering. This shade can be lowered from the top or raised from the bottom—you decide how much light control you want and where on the window the light control should be. The shade is measured in the same way as a standard shade and each shade is provided with a handle to raise and lower it.
Additional Special Options Not Provided on Website (Please call 1-800-548-5711 for pricing and details!)
Energy Shield: Is an added layer that helps block air and provides additional insulation. In warmer months Energy Shield eliminates air flow through the shade and blocks interior cooled air from escaping your home. In colder months, Energy Shield eliminates air flow through the shade, provides additional insulation and allows warmth and filtered ligh from the sun.

Great product. Very durable. A little pricey, but you get what you pay for. My greatest concern is cleaning. I'll know more once they've been up long enough to get dirty.

Just what I wanted

This is my second purchase from seller. I am extremely happy with the quality of the product and it made a major change to the look of my room. I will be back to order more soon!
Definitely room darkening
By Dog Mom

I bought the top down, bottom up shades. I love them, they are so easy to use and with the cordless option no cords to mess with. The top down option lets you still have your privacy while letting light into the room.
Steves Blinds Is the Best
By Bill the Blind Installer
from Whitmore Lake, MI
I find the convenience of buying blinds for my customers on-line to be incredible. I have bought blinds from all of the on-line stores and Steves blows them all away not only in price [...] Buying blinds on line is so much easier than going to the site. It saves me so much time. [...] I usually buy whatever brand the customer wants. If they do not have a particular brand in mind I always direct them to Steves Exclusive Collection because the quality is the best and the price is always the lowest.
Easy to Order- even at 10 PM
By Happy in PA
from Shippensburg, PA
I used the Levelor blinds in my country kitchen to update my kitchen to trendy, neat and functional. I like the top up, bottom down blinds because they are so versatile. Sunlight is great in the AM and privacy is needed in the PM. If you have already purchased a blind and want to add another in the same room, I would suggest getting a sample cloth to match color and style.
Definitely worth the money!
By Wendy
from Wisconsin
It's amazing how well these blinds darken the bedroom. I usually wake around 5 AM, when it gets light out. Now, I can sleep a little longer on my days off.
Great Value
By Jeremy
from White Plains, NY
I love the product, we have other ones in our house.
Quality product
Product is very attractive, and easy to install and operate. I suspect they may be a chore to clean since they are not a hard surface...time will tell. I have very shallow window wells and needed something that will mount in a well less than 1" deep. These fit the bill. The product seems very durable so far. Somewhat pricey, but worth every penny. Great selection of colors available to match any decor. Samples were available for matching colors - huge plus! Room is now very dark - neighbors annoying motion lights no longer wake me in the middle of the night. Double layer construction also insulates room from cold/hot temps coming in around windows.
i would buy this product again

Perfect room darkening shade
By 00
from Morgantown,WV
Bought this in a 70" width for a large bedroom window. Street light shines way too much light in our room and room darkening shades are a must. This blocks out EVERYTHING! Would be great for anyone who works nights and needs to sleep during the day. It's also a very attractive blind.
Wonderful product! I highly recommend!
This product was the perfect choice for our family room. The heat was kept out in the summer and the cold stays out in the winter. We watch a lot of movies and enjoy the total blockout of light even on a sunny day. Wonderful quality and ease of raising and lowering the blinds.
Highly Recommended

Easy installation clean lines
i really like this product.

i used the blinds in our motorhome. you could see light through the blinds that were in it. you can't see anything through these blinds. very pleased.

levolor accordia room darkening blinds
By Lar-Lar
from Youngstown, Ohio
we really like the clean sharp look it gives a room,, and the ease of installation and use. We had to return one due to manufacturer defect-[...] Levolor [...] very cooperative and timely in taking care of the problem
Perfect and Best Price
By CK in SA
from San Antonio, TX
The Levelor Accordia blinds are perfect for the bedroom. The Room Darkening not only provides the privacy and light blocking we needed, but also is much better constructed than the old blinds in our bedroom. We are finishing a remodel of the bathroom and had to replace the large blind when the contractors damaged it. After installing the one blind it was clear that these blinds were much higher quality and the color inside is perfect tone. So we purchased 3 more blinds! Installation was easy, once we figured out the technique for our window frames. We also got the cordless versions for these blinds and I would replace any blind I have with that functionality. Clean look, easy to raise and lower, and no cords for the cats to play with or get caught in a vacuum cleaner. Would be great for homes with small children too. I can't think of any issues or "not so great" concerns I have with these blinds. They are perfect and Steve's has the best prices. This is our third or fourth purchase and every one has been exactly as we ordered.
Glad I went to Steve's Blinds
By Pam S

The blinds fit well and looks great
My last two homes have had Levolor blind
By Sky
from Florida
I have Levolor blinds in every window of the house. They are all cordless and room darkening. In the dining room I have the blinds that can be pulled up from the bottom or down from the top. You can let light in and still see out and have privacy. Also keeps the dog from barking at everything that moves outside.
Great product at a great price
By Tom
from PA
Used the blinds in the bedroomeasy to install
This is NOT a light-blocking shade!!!
By J. W.
from Swarthmore, PA
Excellent quality shade. However, contrary to what the advertising leads you to believe, this shade does NOT block 100% of incoming light. A Levelor representative confirmed this for me. She apologized for the misleading literature.
Thrilled with my purchase!
By Fabulous home on a shoestring budget
from Lockport, IL
I am thrilled with the products [...] from Steve's Blinds! The color swatches online were on point, [...] and the products were superb quality. I was hesitant to purchase something so final and permanent online, but I was beyond impressed. Great products, great selection, and super prices - I would recommend Steve's Blinds to anyone shopping for window coverings!
Love them!

-- NBA and WNBA Players, Legends, and Special Olympics Athletes from Around the World to Participate in a Unified Sports Game Prior to the 62nd NBA All-Star Game on Sunday, Feb. 17 --
New York and Washington, D.C., Feb. 12, 2013 – The National Basketball Association (NBA) and Special Olympics today announced the NBA Cares Special Olympics Unified Sports Basketball Game, which will take place as part of 2013 NBA All-Star in Houston. With support from The Coca-Cola Company, the game will tip off on Center Court at NBA All-Star Jam Session on Sunday, Feb. 17, at 2:00 PM, prior to the 62nd NBA All-Star Game that evening. This year's Unified Sports Basketball Game will feature 12 Special Olympics athletes – some of whom are coming from as far away as China and Africa – playing alongside NBA Legends Dikembe Mutombo, Chris Mullin, Detlef Schrempf and Ron Harper, current WNBA players Candice Wiggins, Ruth Riley, and Nicole Powell, and WNBA Legend Ticha Penicheiro. NBA stars Harrison Barnes, Andre Drummond, Kenneth Faried, and Damian Lillard will serve as honorary coaches and NBA All-Star Jrue Holiday will participate in the honorary tip-off.This Unified Sports® exhibition game, which was first held during NBA All-Star 2012, will combine athletes with and without intellectual disabilities as teammates to showcase the power of Special Olympics' Unified Sports®, which helps unite communities and foster an environment of acceptance and inclusion. Following the game, The Coca-Cola Company and NBA Cares will present Special Olympics with a $50,000 donation. In addition, prior to the Unified Sports Game and only hours before competing in his third NBA All-Star Game, Oklahoma City Thunder's Russell Westbrook along with NBA Legend John Starks will host a clinic for local Special Olympics Texas athletes at Jam Session."The NBA is thrilled to once again join our longtime partner Special Olympics for the NBA Cares Special Olympics Unified Sports Basketball Game at NBA All-Star and we look forward to building upon the excitement and success of last year's game," said NBA Senior Vice President of Community Relations Todd Jacobson. "This great event highlights the role that basketball plays in bringing people together while emphasizing the importance of having fun and living an active, healthy lifestyle."The NBA's global partnership with Special Olympics began more than 30 years ago when the league helped to introduce basketball as a new sport to the organization. The NBA has since provided sponsorship to Special Olympics basketball tournaments, created public service announcements featuring NBA players, and participated in major Special Olympics events. The NBA's Basketball without Borders program has also featured international clinics for Special Olympics athletes in China, Puerto Rico, Russia, France, Greece, Italy, Brazil, Spain, and Mexico. "We are so grateful to our longtime partners at the NBA, and also to Coca-Cola, for their support of this second annual Special Olympics Unified Sports basketball game," said Peter Wheeler, Special Olympics Chief of Strategic Properties. "To showcase the power of Special Olympics Unified Sports on such a huge global stage like this presents an incredible opportunity for us to increase awareness and educate communities about acceptance and inclusion for all people."

Rio de Janeiro pre-show - Relocation all round
Rio de Janeiro pre-show - Relocation all round. The band has to move hotels because of fan siege and the gig relocates for technical reasons.
My journey from San Francisco took me through New York, where I had stopped off for a couple of days to watch Bill Clinton in the throes of scandal on CNN and a dozen other channels. Took a night flight from JFK (-1deg C) to Rio (+35deg C) arriving in the late morning. I met John Panaro, our merchandising guy, on the flight and on emerging through customs in Rio we were most surprised to meet our Italian promoter representative, Pamela Alvin. Turns out the Italian promoter, Fran Tomasi, is co-promoting these shows to bring some experience and sense of order to the proceedings (and when the Italians are the orderly and experienced players, you can only imagine the level of indigenous chaos).
Rio de Janeiro is a most beautiful city, and we are staying at Copacobana ("her name was Lola, she was a show girl", etc, etc) facing endless golden beaches. Not far below the surface, Rio also offers much in the way of crime and poverty, so swanning through with a bunch of rock stars, you can't help but feel the contradictions of the extraordinary life which we lead. The band came down here yesterday to get an extra day of soaking up the atmosphere. This was the theory at least, but by the time I arrived they'd already evacuated due to the hotel being under siege from fans. U2 are normally not afraid of a challenge, but this was clearly going to be unmanageable, so they bailed to a secret location on an island somewhere to try to calm the mob.
We were supposed to be playing at the Maracana - a colossal football stadium - but the show has been moved to a nearby racetrack, due to not being able to get a crane into the stadium, which we need to build the show. Elsewhere in the world this might constitute a crisis, but nobody here seems particularly bothered by this change of plan. Its hot. Very hot. Many of the crew guys are unrecognisable from their last appearance in Seattle, being rested and bright pink from the day's sun. Three people ended up being carted away suffering from sun stroke, so the lesson seems to be to take it steady.

Pimp my Moleskines
I'm not sure if I've ever mentioned it before but, even though I am not a trained designer myself, I manage a small team of graphic designers in my "real" job. They've been working their butts off lately in preparation for a big event we have coming up in a few weeks, so I decided yesterday to make something for them to show my appreciation.
They are the ones who first introduced me to Moleskines, so I couldn't think of anything more appropriate than some fabric covered ones! I found the tutorial over on Wise Craft. They were super easy and a great use of scrap fabrics. All you need is some double-sided fusible bond. A GREAT Christmas gift idea, I think!
Also, for all you Amy Butler fans out there, Kelly from I Have A Notion reached out to me this weekend to let me know about a fun contest she has going on over at her blog. YOU could be the designer of the name badge worn by Amy and her whole team at the upcoming quilt market in Houston! Besides the awesome bragging rights, if your design is chosen you will also win some of Amy's patterns, stationary, and other goodies.
You can find all the details here:
Amy Butler Tag Challenge
Best wishes for a great week ahead!

"One day, on my way back from work, I tuned-in to what used to be my favorite station and started listening to Catholic Answers Live. Slowly, the hard shell that had been built around me started breaking apart every time I listened to your show. There have been several programs that have touched me very deeply, even to the point of tears."

"The [secular] sense of right and wrong is so delicate, so fitful, so easily puzzled, obscured, perverted, so subtle in its argumentative methods, so impressionable by education, so biased by pride and passion, so unsteady in its course, that in the struggle for existence amid the various exercises and triumphs of the human intellect, the sense is at once the highest of all teachers yet the least luminous."

GENRES: Suspense, mystery, romance, action-adventure
MAIN PAIRINGS: Harry/Cedric (primary), Hermione/Viktor, Remus/Sirius
WARNINGS: ADULT, radical AU
Note on pairings: Yes, this novella series has homosexual pairings, and yes, it has heterosexual pairings. If you're a slash or het purist, bail now. I believe fiction should reflect life, so both appear.
Special Notes Relating to the Books & Films: If the pairing was inspired by Robert Pattinson's shameless and adorable flirting as Cedric in the film, this novella series is BOOK CANON up until it completely diverges.
Acknowledgements: Special thanks go to Laurel TX, for HP detail checks, general comments, prodding me to go ahead and do the unexpected, and mad plotting assistance, as well as (per usual) Bren Kuebler, for keeping my British (and grammar) on track.
Parent Series: None
Categories: The Broomshed > The Changing Room
Characters: Alastor Moody, Cedric Diggory, Fleur Delacour, Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Minerva McGonagall, Oliver Wood, Regulus Black, Remus Lupin, Ron Weasley, Viktor Krum, Voldemort

Opening Day in San Francisco
After a stormy evening, San Franciscians experienced a perfect day at AT&T Park. Pregame festivities began with the introduction of the 2012 and 1962 Giants. The 41,138 fans were also treated to a fantastic flyover by the pilots of Lemoore Naval Air Station and a touching tribute to Giants fan Bryan Stow. Matt Cain kept the excitement going with a complete game shutout.

Would recommend this cot to anyone. I slept like I was sleeping in my bed at home. Unlike the little cots you didn't feel like you were waking others in the room up when you rolled over or in getting up. Very sturdy. I would buy another one today if I needed. The people I camp with are looking into getting one soon. Everyone had to try it out. I bought a air mattress to go with his cot but ended up not having to use it. The cot was so comfortable. I will be getting my moneys worth out of this product for sure. The free shipping made it even better.
We got this as a spare bed for when we have guests. It is solid and is an awesome price. We set it up to test it out when it arrived. It requires a little elbow grease to look into place, but when it does, it is very sturdy. If you're looking at this, you've probably slept on a camping cot before. As such, you know that you don't want the canvas to be too loose. Luckily, the canvas is tightly pulled and thus very comfortable. I will definitely use this more than a blow-up mattress.
Very happy with this product for our uses. An extra bed for guests that is easy to store and won't pop like an air mattress. Would recommend 2 extra long twin feather/fiber beds to top with.
Bar in the center was higher than the frame surrounding the cot. Very heavy and hard to put back into the bag, which was torn.
This is a sturdy and quickly assembled support for an airbed.
I was hoping to use this cot with my air mattress. However, since there is a bar running down the middle it did not work. This cot would work well with two separate sleeping bags. It is sturdy and quite heavy.
This cot set up easy and break down was fast and easy. I put a queen size air mattress on it, it hung over the edge by 2 inches on each side. Worked Great. Delivery was super fast. Best price found at overstock.
Wish that review mentioned that this cot at first appears to have to be used by only two people as the apparatus in the middle does not make it conducive for one person to roll over on it. After purchasing a full size air mattress, NOT queen size, and putting padding underneath that to protect the air mattress it is now a very comfortable full size outdoor bed.
Have only set this up in the living room but it was very comfortable and seemed sturdy!

I knew we were in trouble when the lower east side didn't look like
I could go on and on about the lack of authenticity of this film. But let me just rattle off a few: Deborah Harry (Malin Ackerman) doesn't have a thick
The actors come off as poor impersonators. This film isn't even worthy of being likened to what a cover band is to an established rock group. It's that lacking in cred. It's like a bad tv version of punk rock. It akin to a Disney version of punk.
What's good about "CBGB" is the music. Thank God the real music was used. So yes- this one rocks!!! It's fun seeing Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley in "Harry Potter") wearing a dog collar as a Dead Boy. There's a good reason why the actor playing The Police's Stewart Copeland is so well-cast: it's his son, Christopher.
Alan Rickman is a fine actor but he's directed to play Hilly Kristal as if he sleep-walked through life.
What "CBGB" could have used is a director like Jim Jarmusch, who lives in NYC.

Armed men demanding the expulsion of former officials of the regime of ousted Libyan leader Moamer Kadhafi surrounded the justice ministry in the capital, widening a campaign that began on the weekend with a siege on the foreign ministry, an official said.

Santa Cruz Bicycles Highball D XC Complete Mountain Bike
Out of Stock
Item # SNZ000Q
Don't worry though, we have a lot more Hardtail Bikes in stock than that.
Santa Cruz Bicycles Highball D XC Complete Mountain Bike $0.00
For those that like to shred without stats like nutritional intake and trail KOMs, there are sensory-pleasing rides like the Santa Cruz Highball Complete Mountain Bike. Packaged here as the D XC Complete Mountain Bike, with a Shimano Deore drivetrain, RockShox Recon fork, and WTB tubeless wheelset, it ensures value that won't leave you wishing for more.
Santa Cruz's renowned expertise with hydroformed aluminum has created a frame that mimics the ride quality of the carbon version, only at a friendlier price point. Additionally, the geometry of the Highball Aluminum is identical to that of its carbon brother. Speaking of geometry, there's a good reason to love the Highball.
Its short, 17.3in chainstays put your center of gravity more over the rear wheel. This position provides a surprising amount of flickability that separates the Highball from the typical, lumbering feel of some 29ers. It pops out of corners and navigates tight, technical lines with glee. For this reason, if you've been considering moving up to a big wheeler, but you've been wary of some the common objections like reduced maneuverability and slower accelerations, this bike will make you question the validity of claims about what a 29er can't do.
To be clear, this is a race-oriented machine. You'll be responsible for absorbing most of the bumps when you're in the saddle as you roll over technical terrain. For a cushier ride, you may want to look at a bike with longer chainstays. Adding to the aggressive, race-oriented feel of the Highball is a short head tube -- only 3.9 inches in the Medium and Large frame sizes. This gives you a compact front end that allows you to get into a powerful cross-country position.
In addition to dialing in the geometry, Santa Cruz incorporated several worthwhile finishing touches. A strut reinforces the brake-side rear dropout to provide confident, vibration-free braking. This is a feature that you'll appreciate, considering that with a larger wheel diameter and rolling mass, 29ers require more stopping power. Look down near the bottom bracket of the Highball, and you'll discover an asymmetric, forged chainstay yoke that provides maximum strength and stiffness, while ensuring adequate tire and chainring clearance.
The Highball Aluminum D XC Complete Bike comes standard with fixed dropouts for geared use, but they are removable for swinger-style dropouts if you want a single-speed conversion. Up front, you get a RockShox Recon TK fork, which offers 100mm of plush, tuneable travel through its Dual Air and Motion Control systems. The wheelset consists of durable WTB i19 TCS rims laced to SRAM MTH716/748 hubs. They've been wrapped in Maxxis Crossmark 2.1in tires.
The cockpit contains a Race Face Ride stem, bars, and seatpost. Shimano Deore shifters toggle Deore derailleurs for smooth, dependable shifting. A Deore triple crankset ensures you'll have the right ratio for any terrain. Rounding out the package are Avid Elixir1 brakes.
The Santa Cruz Highball D XC Complete Mountain Bike is available in four sizes from Small to X-Large and in the colors Gloss White, Black, and Red.
