Shopping Guides
Popular Types of Quilts
Out of all the bedding made, quilts may be the most diverse. Quilts are produced in all kinds of colors, patterns, sizes, styles and types. If you're looking for a quilt but don't know where to start, take a look at the popular types of quilts below to learn more about this beautiful kind of bedding. Amish quilts: These beautiful quilts reflect the Amish way of living and feature solid colors, deep hues, geometric patterns and very little embellishment. Amish quilts contain the highest quality of construction and stitching, and, sometimes, the wonderful stitch patterns (scrolls, feathers) contrast with the simple backgrounds of their quilts. Applique quilts: These quilts use a French needlework technique where fabric pieces are sewn onto another piece of material to create a design. Applique is used extensively in the quilting process and is not to be confused with patchwork. Patchwork pieces are joined together; applique is sewn on top of the whole piece. Baltimore album quilts: Baltimore album quilts came from Maryland in the early 1800s. Each block in the design of these quilts is appliqued differently, often in ornate floral patterns. Bangladeshi quilts: These quilts are made with layers of Saree cloth. Saree cloth is silk cloth used by women of India to wrap and fold around the body as a garment. The cloth is usually 40 to 60 inches wide by 6 yards long. These quilts are used as bedding or as decorative pieces. Bargello quilts: Bargello quilts are created with offset squares in an up-and-down geometric "V" pattern. The small squares of different fabrics and the colorful designs make these quilts true works of art. Hawaiian quilts: Hawaiian quilts are not pieced, and they usually showcase a large, symmetrical applique in the center of the quilt. Most often the background is white or another solid color. Patchwork quilts: Patchwork quilts are constructed of many small pieces of fabric which are put together in an improvised or irregular pattern. This is a well-known quilt style, and examples of historical patchwork quilts are found in many museums. Ralli quilts: Ralli quilts, sometimes known as rilli quilts, are traditional quilts made in India or Pakistan. There is an abundance of embroidery as well as applique on the patchwork patterns. Star quilts: Star quilts are created with a large star shape, or several star shapes, dominating the pattern. Wedding ring quilts: Wedding ring quilts are crafted in a design of interlocking rings. This pattern goes far back in history: in the fourth century it was used to decorate drinking cups in Rome. Wedding ring quilts are highly popular and make wonderful wedding gifts. If you're looking for a gift to please an engaged couple, you can't go wrong with a wedding quilt. Bedding always makes a significant gift for the bride and groom, and a quilt with coordinating Egyptian cotton sheets can be even better. View All Quilts Back to Guides Directory View All Quilts

Best Wall Ideas for Baby's Room
With the arrival of your new baby drawing closer, you'll want to do everything you can to prepare, including furnishing and decorating the baby nursery. A baby nursery that is filled with all the right touches will give your infant a bright and beautiful place to start life. The wall decor can set the mood for the entire room, so start with art and decorations that are fun, interesting, unique and special. Wall art appliques. Removable wall decor appliques and decals offer some of the best ideas for a baby's room. Printed plastic and vinyl wall decals come in a variety of colors and designs. Opt for a themed collection of wall art images and create your own mural, which you can easily rearrange or remove as your child grows and you want to change the room. There are also decals that display words or phrases, such as well-known lines from nursery rhymes, prayers or beloved children's books. These look especially precious when posted on the wall above a baby's crib or cradle and can set the theme for the whole room. Framed art. As in any room, framed art can be the best way to add interest and beauty to nursery walls. Art is always personal, so choose a piece or grouping that speaks to you and your family. A lovely print of a mother and child or a toddler with a stuffed toy might move you, or you may prefer something whimsical and bright. If you have not yet settled on a theme or color for your baby's room, the perfect piece of framed art could be your best inspiration. Quilts. You have probably contemplated in great detail, if not already selected, the bedding for your baby's room. What you might not have considered is using a pretty quilt to decorate the wall. Quilts make lovely wall hangings and, with elaborate patterns and multicolor pieces, they let you tie together several colors in the room. Find a large quilt that harmonizes with your nursery decor or arrange several smaller ones in a delightful wall grouping. Letters. It has long been popular to decorate a nursery with letters. Spell out your little one's name with lovely, polished silver letters hanging from ribbons above the crib or use bright, colorful letters to showcase the alphabet or your little one's initials. You can add letters to your child's nursery in a variety of ways, from hand-painting them right onto the wall to utilizing lovely lettered wallpaper.

text: The LL products were not developed in a jail cell in 2003. The nefarious origin was developed in the back of a taxi cab in March 2005, in less than 35 minutes with the help of a taxi driver named "Jimmie" who came up with the information on fraud alerts, because of his misfortune in Id Theft in 2002, and learning of placing credit fraud alerts by then Gov. Janet Napolitano in Arizona in September 2003 for 2 yrs. originally, then changed to every 3 months in February 2005, and the Original intellectual idea for "Lost Wallet" and "True Credit Address" & "Red Alerts", a self replicating software product came from "Jimmie". Also marketing channels of advertising were discussed. You should have seen Mr. Maynard after learning of the fraud alert system and product ideas, he lost his mind repeating"oh my God", "oh my God" ( a light bulb turned on!) on a business idea. The 2003 jail story and a taxi drivers bank ID theft was used together as a marketing idea. A Phoenix New Times reporter was standing outside the cab in March 2005 when a 1% handshake deal on all "Liflock" profits was discussed mutually between "Jimmie" and Mr. Maynard as he exited the vehicle on Mill Ave in Tempe, down the street from the now, new offices of LL. I'd say be careful with the company, as the thing the taxi driver got was "LL" idea theft, no recognition or $$ for the product ideas in 9 years… http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/pdf-0009-taking-charge.pdf

If Hillis is OUT for a while,
i would be ALL for the RETURN of RB A. Brown......
if we get 8 games out of him,
And 8 Games outta Hillis, thats a Season...
P-Squad RB M.Cox....
....... REESE is also looking into RB B. Jacobs.....
If it means losing a good player to make the 53 man roster we would normally be keeping, I would say "no" to signing Andre Brown. Even at a veteran's minimum contract, he is injured much more often than not, which makes him unreliable. The roster spot is much more valuable than the salary that would be paid to Brown. And since there is the possibility of keeping three QB's on the roster this season because of Reese's refusal to give up on draft picks like Nassib (or TE A.Robinson as a non-QB example), that roster spot becomes even more valuable than filling it with an oft-injured, unreliable player like Brown.
I mean for the minimum why not? D wil done hillis is down atm and journeyman rashad Jennings rookie Williams and second year Player in cox only guys currently on the roster do we feel the giants are so deep at the position we shouldn't sign him?

Geneva Greene will always remember the little boy who came to the Valley Outreach Interfaith Center one day with an older woman.
"Are these really for me?" he asked after Greene gave him some school supplies.
Then she handed him some toys, and the boy was even more amazed.
"Do I really get to keep these?" he asked as his eyes grew wider and wider.
Finally, Greene gave the boy some snacks and other food.
"He looked up at me," she remembered, "and he said, 'If I ever have to run away again, I'm coming here!'"
Greene, 66, loves to tell that story, even though it happened years ago, because it illustrates what the Interfaith Center is all about.
It's a place where people in need can get food, clothing, household goods and a variety of other items while struggling through hard times.
The Interfaith Center is located on Augusta Road in the Horse Creek Valley area of Aiken County. The towns served by the charitable organization include Bath, Clearwater, Graniteville, Langley and Warrenville. All are full of men, women and children who need a helping hand, Greene said.
"When the mills closed, people around here lost their jobs and, for most of them, that was all they knew how to do," Greene said. "The closing of the mills and the big stores like Walmart ran off a lot of the mom and pop businesses."
The Interfaith Center started as a food bank in August 1985. Two years later, the organization began using its current name and added clothes and food items to its offerings.
Greene has been with the Interfaith Center since its founding. At first she was a volunteer, but about 10 years ago she started receiving a salary. She's been called the Center's director, but Greene prefers to refer to herself as the organization's manager.
"When we first opened, I saw the need," she said. "But then I realized that I needed it as much as it needed me. After all my kids were grown, it gave me a purpose, and that kind of still holds true."
Gifts from churches and the community fund the Interfaith Center, which operates on a shoestring budget of less than $20,000 a year.
"Donations are down, and since we purchased our own building about eight years ago, we struggle to pay the bills during the months that the insurance and the taxes are due," Greene said.
The Interfaith Center also has an ongoing problem with people dumping trash at its site.
"They take the good donated items and leave garbage bags with rotted food and dirty diapers inside," Greene said.
However, Greene added, the worthwhile work that the Interfaith Center does and her close-knit group of eight or so loyal volunteers help keep her going through financial challenges and trash cleanups.
"We all enjoy the camaraderie," Greene said. "We have a little breakfast get-together on Wednesday mornings, and we go out to lunch sometimes. We also get a good feeling from the people who appreciate what we do."

Also known as Horror-Punk, Fiendcore was started by The Misfits in the late 1970's. This was inspired by the punk rock movement era in New York City. However, The Misfits are from New Jersey. Fiendcore is Punk, B-Movies, and Greaser music put in 1. its like...The Ramones and Elvis Presley having a kid and putting him in an old ass 50's movie about aliens and zombies. good shit.

A Very Intense Period
Now that we've had a chance catch to quell the panic attacks and mop up all the puddles of perspiration, here's an update on our tampon donations to women's shelters. In a word: Whoa! After Kendra posted about our program, the viral nature of the internet took it and ran with it like there was no tomorrow. Our little initiative became a big giant tampon-breathing monster. Budgets were crushed. Hair was lost. Tampons were virtually hurled from coast to coast. Here's how our internal newsletter, Inner Piece, reports the chain of events in this week's edition:
Last summer, SVG launched Tampontification.com , encouraging our friends nationwide to get real about menstruation. SVG got real, too. We'd realized that women's shelters in the U.S. go through thousands of tampons and pads monthly, and while agencies generally assist with everyday necessities such as toilet paper, diapers, and clothing, this most basic need is often overlooked.
Many of us take our monthly trips down the feminine care aisle for granted, but for women in shelters, a box of tampons is five dollars they can't spare. Solution: virtual donations of our eco-friendly chlorine-free organic cotton fem-care to local shelters, with an emphasis on volunteer opportunities.
Our mission fairies hit the road several months later, delivering product and our message from Seattle to San Fran and all points in between. That message struck a chord with women across the nation~a slow burn, that months later, is spreading like wildfire!
Before long, e-mails like this one began crowding our IN box:

Americans consume unhealthy amounts of sodium in their food, far exceeding public health recommendations. Indeed the average American gets more than 3,400 milligrams of sodium a day — 50 percent more than what's recommended. Statistics like this lead New York City in 2010 to declare war on salt, and many others have joined the fray. Here's a brief update on what's been happening in the war on salt:
At the urging of Congress, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Institute of Medicine released the groundbreaking report, "A Population-Based Policy and Systems Change Approach to Prevent and Control Hypertension." It highlighted the connection between salt and high blood pressure, stroke and heart attack. The report also noted that one in three adults have high blood pressure, one of the leading causes of death.
All of these are good first steps in the war on salt, but individuals also have to make up their minds to join this initiative. If you haven't, what's keeping you from shaking your salt habit? For those who are trying to change, share what you've been doing with fellow readers.

None of the experts got to the real question: how much salt is a necessity in frozen/canned/ dehydrated foods. Saw 800mg salt in can of chili with beans. How much is actually needed, and how much is simply catering to an over-salted public?
Your note about Sea Salt is worthy of note, but the "Trace" you mention is actually about 15% by weight, of other elements. My question is because I can find no mention of the other (non-salt) materials that are in sea water, that must be in sea salt, unless they wash it out somehow (a process they don't do or don't advertise). Certainly there would be organic mater (algy, human pollutants, diatoms, etc.). The required 'ingredients' only says 'sea salt' Does anyone actually assay such products?
I am now eating Himilayan Salt. I also add it to my drinking water. It has 84 minerals in it. A Dr. has implimented this salt for healthy living.
Some years ago I went on a No Salt Diet in order to reverse my tendency to gradually increase blood pressure. I eat only foods to which salt has not been added, neither by my nor by whoever produced it. My total sodium load comes from what occurs naturally in the vegetables and fish that I eat. Most of my food is prepared at home, but I do patronize several favorite restaurants where they are willing to prepare dishes without salt. The only canned or frozen foods that I eat are those specified as 'no salt added.' Fortunately I have a small grocery nearby that caters to special dietary needs, but also buy on line. I have learned to use lots of herbs and spices that, for me, make the food taste better than with salt. (I even carry some with me when going to a restaurant.) By now I can't stand food prepared with the 'normal' amount of salt; it tastes awful. Occasionally, when the chef forgets and adds a little salt to a dish, I have to send it back. This regimen has allowed me to keep my blood pressure down without using any medication.
The War On Salt is great news for those having hypertension. I am one of those. My question is exactly how much sodium is necessary in people's daily food intake? Another question is can people really thrive on 500 mg sodium/day? Since almost every kind of food has sodium in it how can we be sure to minimize sodium intake? So far my hypertension control has not been optimal.
I've had menieres for 30+ years so am on a salt restricted diet. I eat mainly fresh fruit & vegetables, chicken, red meat, and non-salty fish. My small city has salt free products from Eden plus we use the Dash spices. We don't use many other canned or pre-prepared products. After eating low salt products for years my husband finds many of the restaurant foods too salty to enjoy. He also finds the high fat content in foods such as pizza don't agree with his stomach. Since he has high blood pressure this diet has been helpful for him as well.
I'm 78 years old and do not suffer from high blood pressure or anything other than the usual age-related joint stiffness. As a matter of fact my blood pressure is on the low side, if anything. And it burns me up to have people watch me eating and criticize my habit of adding salt to my meals. Some of them become obnoxiously loud, arguing so much and getting their blood pressure boiling. Adding salt to food with a shaker never tastes the same as having cooked it with salt because it does not spread evenly. And I strenuously object to the government telling me what I cannot eat or how not to prepare it. You can call me a curmudgeon if you wish, but I'm really a mild-mannered old geezer.
I have been a saltaholic all my life. I used to lick my hand as a child, sprinkle it with salt and lick it again. After 2 pregnancies with pre-eclampsia and no salt diets, despite what the doctors told me, I did not lose my taste for or craving for salty things. I do, however, intensely dislike a sweet taste in my mouth or sweet foods. I found sea salt on my own and now cook with it in small amounts and add it to my food when I eat. It has the salty taste with far less being put on my food. I tried Mrs. Dash and other seasonings and it just didn't help. I crave the salty taste. Maybe you could do something for those of us who crave it: why do we crave the salty flavour, is our diet lacking in something else, is sea salt a good alternative etc.
I am in total agreement however, it is sodium not salt that we should be concerned about. Salt contains sodium as does a very large amount of foods naturally as well as added. A medium piece of celery for example has 35 mg of sodium. My advise is to get as much information about sodium quanitites as possible. The ADA has some excellent information on this - 26 pages worth. It is important to keep a food diary and a running daily total of amounts eaten. It is also important that potassium, magnesium and calcium levels be maintained, naturally if possible, once the sodium level is dropped.
Adding salt with a salt shaker rather than adding salt before or as it cooks seems to be a "controllable" way to add desirable taste to food. Paying attention to salt already in foods will help you decide before you eat, whether to add more salt.
I would like to say thank you for addressing this major issue in many people's lives. Since discontinuing a blood pressure medication a few weeks ago I have embarked on a completely new meal plan. The reason for stopping the medication was my renal function was being compromised. I am using two cookbooks for lowering the blood pressure, one is Don Gazzaniga's No Salt, Lowest Sodium cookbook and the other is the DASH diet cookbook. Don had CHF and in 18 months turned his illness around by ingesting only 500 mg sodium/day. Following his way is going to bring my hypertension down to much lower levels, levels in the range of low 100's to about 115 systolic. The grocery store I frequent has a problem in that it does not subscribe to lowering sodium and salt intake, thus making it difficult to buy what is necessary. Most of the foods I buy are fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, minimal red meat, the meat eaten is chicken and fish, plus more whole grains than other diets. Today the blood pressure was the lowest in several weeks, the systolic was 128 mmHg. This sums up what I eat in a nutshell. If only more people would heed this warning.
Nicely compiled data. I have started reading this site. This is really worthy content and useful for every new language learner. Appreciation for this kind of important write-up!
The original version of this post gave an estimate in tons of how much salt Americans eat each day. That figure raised questions among readers. Because that number was incidental to the blog's message -- that progress is being made in reducing salt consumption -- we removed it. Thanks to everyone who posted a comment.
I think this salt initiative is a great idea. Getting the companies involved is a sure fire way to reduce salt intake. I always have a problem finding low salt anything. Chips, canned soup (like cream of mushroom or chicken), or rice mixes. Finally there are starting to be companies that recognize this. At one point there was only low fat, reduced fat, or 100 calorie items. What about the people wanting reduced salt? My grandma is on a no salt diet and it is almost impossible to find any food that has NO salt. It requires that we cook everything from scratch. Nothing can be processed. No eating out. We are currently looking into home made foods that take less time to prepare.
I have suffered from severe hypertension since my early 30s. I am now 56, and have been under good control control with a low dose beta blocker and mild diuretic. At one point in my treatment, about 25 years ago, I went a salt restricted diet under the supervision of my doc at UofPenn. I was also a marathon runner, a vegetarian and had 9% body fat. After two weeks of the worst tasting food i have ever tasted, my diastolic and systolic measures reduced about 4 and 7 ml respectively. My BP after this ordeal was 170/110, basically what it always is, whether I salt restrict, exercise, eat salty foods or don't exercise. My doctors explanation which I continue to believe to be correct, is that I am not salt sensitive and that there is a strong genetic component in my condition. His estimation then, was that this combination characterizes about 60% of hypertensives, who can little or no clinical improvement without drugs. Would you comment on this latter assertion?
sorry, forgot link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20826631
Whats interesting is this study released in 2010. Despite perceptions of increased intake, UNa+ measured over 24hrs has not changed over time. From my readings, this method correlates well to intake, argues against worsening secular outcome trendds and associations with intake. Take a look--study got lots of attn in '10 and would like to get you take. brad

Customer satisfaction with e-government down slightly but near record highs
Monday - 10/22/2012, 8:06pm EDT
Satisfaction with federal e-government sites — such as the Social Security Administration's online application portal and the Health and Human Services Department's Web-based medical library — have remained high through most of 2012, according to a quarterly report from ForeSee and the American Customer Satisfaction Index.
On a 100-point scale, customer satisfaction with federal websites now sits at 75.3. That's actually down slightly from last quarter, which set an all-time high, according to the latest report.
But the continued strong performance allowed e-government sites to score more highly than comparable private-sector e-business sites — a reversal of longstanding trends, the report stated.
The results, compiled from about 300,000 surveys, measured 106 federal websites. Websites were grouped into three categories.
- E-commerce/transactional sites — The government's e-commerce-type websites posted the highest scores.
The Social Security Administration's iClaim website, which allows users to apply for benefits online, and its retirement estimator both scored in the low 90s, outpacing high-performing private-sector sites, such as Amazon.com.
- News and information sites — Overall, government news and information sites scored 3 percent higher than comparable private-sector news and information sites.
These sites include the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service's Resource Center as well as the Health and Human Services Department's MedlinePlus site, a repository of medical information from the National Library of Medicine.
- Main agency websites — However, overall, main agency websites ranked below private-sector portals and search engines in satisfaction surveys.
The highest-scoring federal website is the HHS' National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, which scored an 88. All told, HHS had five of its sites in the top 10. Others included NASA, the FBI main site and the Defense Department's main site.
More Americans interacting with government online
The report pointed more broadly to the fact that increasingly Americans are choosing to interact with the government online as opposed to through traditional methods.
"Any website that can meet the needs of its visitor will drive satisfaction and have a direct impact on behavior, and the pay-off is well worth the investment," said Larry Freed, president and CEO of ForeSee, in a release. "Research shows that highly satisfied citizens are more likely to recommend or return to the website, or use it as a primary resource before other more costly channels like call centers than less satisfied website visitors."
That trend is promising, since online services are often more cost-effective than brick-and-mortar call centers, for example.
Still, the authors of the report sounded a note of caution.
"Though it is encouraging to see some public sector websites outperforming the private sector, federal government agencies would be foolish to cut e-government budgets under the mistaken impression that less is more," said Claes Fornell, the founder of the American Customer Satisfaction Index, in the release. "When it comes to citizen satisfaction, a satisfied customer is almost always a more profitable one. Or in the case of government, a less expensive one."

Report: Citizen satisfaction with federal services slightly up in 2011

If the Aussies can pop a submarine up in a city harbor, why can't/won't we, like a LA or VA class submarine docking in New York City??
Is the water deep enough?
Would the security headaches be beyond doing.
The USS Nautilus was one time in NYC harbor, is that the last submarine to be in that harbor on the surface????
2 many questions I know, but this article got me to thinking.

Here is the thing I don't understand.
We sold over 500 boxes and you think all 500 post on the forums?
You only see a few people posting boxes so for y'all to judge the boxes that are posted on the forums is pretty craze. As long as the people that purchased them are happy that's all that matters. If you're not happy than you're happy with them. We got so many emails from people that lived their boxes in the last two weeks and that's what we are trying to accomplish. If you ain't happy with our service again you don't have to shop with us.
Thanks and God Bless.
why these people buying boxes if they aint like some of the stuff your company makes, thats their own mistake they made they cant be blaming BS for giving them what they ordered, a black box. If yall dont like some the stuff they make why buy a box from them, It all looks dope to me
