Either file for a divorce, or try and see if she's cool if you had sex with other people.
Hey, it's a strange day and age that we are living in.
Spend a little cash and call and escort service, or go get a rub and tug. **** man! You haven't cheated, you don't get satisfied at home, wtf? All you want is a good ******. I wouldn't see it as cheating if you did that.
Tell her what you want. She's probably completely clueless. Try to get her to try new things. Most women love an adventure!
She isn't clueless. I've told her, spoken to her about it and nothing changes. I've begged...shamelessly for change...and she simply refuses. ****!!!
Never having been in your position I can't even imagine. Sorry for you. Really. Glad I have a great sex group to be a part of and lots of friends to have sex with. So there's your answer, just find some "friends with benefits". That's not cheating that's having fun with friends. You aren't doing anything with them you wouldn't do with any other friend - who dropped her drawers and let you **** her or sucked you off, right?
yep...this sounds so familiar-i was married for 20+years and my wife has lost interest in sex-she'd rather watch TV, sleep, or read a book. I was so fed up that I went on a dating website and had an affair which lasted for over a year before the lady ended it. So I had another one and then my wife found out. She must have wanted me back because we had so much sex that week-elevn or twelve times in all sorts of amazing positions!
But all good things must come to an end and she's gone back to her sleep, her reading and her TV and I'm left to twiddle my fingers. I'm too tired she says. Huh. -
I totally understand your situation. I am very unhappy with my marriage, have stayed all these years for my boys. 5 years ago, i had an affair and fell in love with a woman that was wonderful for me, had everything i was looking for and brought out the best in me. She left her husband and kept trying to get me to leave. finally 2 years ago, she told me not to contact her again, moved on with her life and has a bf. Now my boys are graduated, on their own, and I am without the woman I still love. My counselor says no matter what I do (or would have done) the boys would adjust. Dont make my mistake, I foolishly sacrificed what I wanted. Your children will adjust and someday will have their own life, make sure you live yours...
I met her at age 19 and married at 27, married now for 19 years. The last 15 years have progressively lost love. I tried to get her into my business when I started on my own with a safe solution for her to try it and if she did not like it to go back to her career job. She refused. I tried again for her to go on her own without me and I would get her all started. She did not do it.
I have grown the business over the years and have given family a comfortable life. The business, stress and associates have changed me over time. I am attracted to women that are strong and business minded. It is overwhelming and uncontrollable.
I have re-connected with an ex-employee from the time I first started after 9-years of loosing touch. We never did anything but I was attracted to her for her motivation and fiery spirit to succeed in business. Now she is my partner in another company and we are a fantastic professional team. We have connected in love as well. I want to leave my marriage and spend my life with someone that shares my passion. I tried! I have one boy, age 15, currently that adores me and I him. He looks up to me. He is strong and level headed as I am. I know that at some point he may understand this decision I find getting closer and closer.
My wife suspects and is hunting around my every move. I am passionate about my newfound love. I feel shameful at times. I don't and did not want this. My heart says to listen to it. My duty as a father says another. My duty towards the promise I made when I said "I do" at the altar is haunting me. -
To Jocjeepster: There is such a thing as Chemistry. Your wife bores you to death because there is none. You force adapt. Deep inside the yearn and passion for a suitable partner is eating you and will continue. What do you do? Find your happiness. That is what matters to quality of life in the end. The many Taboos, attachments and concerns are the check valve that hold us back.

Full-auto prices - huge jump, what's up????
Full auto prices are jumping at a rate I've never seen before. One guy on Gunbroker has a bid of 10K for an AC556, but his reserve hasn't been met! http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...Item=355394149
I know it comes with about $900 worth of goodies, but still seems like prices have climbed 70% from where they were about 1 year ago. This goes for FNC sears, M16's, UZI's, etc. Are we in a "full-auto bubble"? Or, has inflation finally kicked in? Have any of you noticed a huge price jump in full-auto recently? |

Yes, there has been a huge jump, but some of the prices on gunbroker are a little bit unrealistic.
You can check the prices out at the machine gun price guide. They have charts of machine gun historical values. http://www.machinegunpriceguide.com/...hine_guns.html I am currently waiting on stamps for an m16a1 and m16a2 (all genuine parts), and an mp5. I spent a pretty penny on all three. I am currently in negotiations to buy two more mp5s, an m16a2, and a Tommy gun, so I've seen the rise first hand. Even one month later, there has been a rise. One dealer is currently asking for about $2000-4000 more for his mp5s than my first dealer, and it seems to be consistent across the country with well established and respectable dealers. Talk about machine gun prices on gunbroker...last week I saw a Steyr Aug for 19,000. I went to check the market price and check the legitimacy of the seller, and slept on it. Next day it was gone. Arrg. Shoulda bought it, assuming the seller was legit. Last edited by Machineguntony; July 26, 2013 at 11:38 AM. |

Saving Flower Seeds Saves Money
"Packaged seeds are pricey," she says. "With some varieties, you can get as few as 12 or 14 seeds in a package, and it can cost $1.59 to $1.79. "I have been saving seeds from my flowers for about eight years. Planting flowers is just something that I love to do and I've always enjoyed being resourceful," she says. According to Dorsett, the secret to successfully saving high-germination seeds is getting them "good and dry." It's best if they can do most of their drying on the stem, but close attention must be paid in order to collect them at the right time or they'll end up on the ground. One of the flowers that Dorsett grows a lot of is marigolds. Thanks to her ample seed supply, she plants a 40-ft. by 3-ft. hedge made with one row of tall Cracker Jacks in the center, and a row of regular border marigolds on each side, creating a big splash of oranges, yellows and bronze. "Our place is along the river, and I've had people come from clear across the river to see what kind of hedge it is because of the spectacularly bright colors. They're always surprised when they see that it's just common marigolds," she says. Dorsett also plants marigolds in her vegetable garden because they deter cabbage moths so she doesn't have to use pesticides. "Each year I collect and use anywhere from 6 to 8 gallons of marigold seeds alone," she says. "I don't know what you'd be talking about to buy that much, but it would be a lot!" Collecting flower seeds doesn't take very long. You can get a lot of seeds in an hour, she points out. In the fall, when the flower heads have dried sufficiently on the stems, Dorsett snaps them off and lays them out on a sheet to dry further. Usually, the petals have fallen off and all that's left are the pods. If the weather is warm, this can be done outside, but she usually does it indoors on a large table, or on the floor, "because you can't always depend on the weather." "Then you move the pods around with your hands û you'll know when they're dry enough because the seeds just start falling out of the pods," she explains. "Some people dry them in the oven, but I never have, because I've had really good success with my method." Next, Dorsett rubs them between her thumb and forefinger. Some of the chaff comes off with the seeds, which is good, she says, because it "thins the seeds down when you're planting and makes them easier to sow." This is especially true for tiny seeds like poppies. After Dorsett has finished separating her flower seeds from the pods, she puts them in large bowls, pans or plastic bins where she can let them dry a little more and stir them around occasionally with her hand. Once she feels that they're totally dry, she puts them in 1-gal. zip lock bags and places them in a cool, dry place until spring planting begins. She uses her system on a wide variety of flower types. "The thing I enjoy about saving seeds is being as generous as I want to when planting time comes," she says.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION

Look, just about everything that could happen has already happened in the long and glorious history of the Canadian Football League.
And so while statistics were not immediately available on Sunday, the odds are still probably at least 50-50 that at some point over the last 80 years some sad-sack team has mustered just 23 yards of total offence in the first half of a CFL game and yet still somehow gone on to win.
But it hasn't happened very often and it most certainly has never before happened for a more deserving -- or long-suffering -- bunch than the fans of the 2013 Winnipeg Blue Bombers.
In a Banjo Bowl game that every year means a little more than the rest, the Bombers used a highly unusual formula of epic defence, opportunistic special teams and atrocious offence to defeat a genuinely befuddled Saskatchewan Roughriders team, 25-13.
The victory -- which snapped a seven-game losing streak for Winnipeg -- was just the second of the season for the 2-8 Bombers and just the second loss of the year for the formerly high-flying 8-2 Riders. And while it raised as many questions as it answered about this maddening Bombers team -- like, for instance, how could this offence get any worse than 23 yards in an entire half? -- at the end of the day all that mattered was for the first time ever, fans went home happy after attending a Bombers game at Investors Group Field.
Defence wins championships, or at least Banjo Bowls
The Bombers have just two wins this season and both came as a result of epic performances by their defence.
A Week 2 defensive performance that the CFL stats bureau ranked among the 15 stingiest since 1996 generated Winnipeg's first win of the year over Montreal.
And you could make the case that Sunday's performance -- coming as it did against the best team in the league with, by far, the league's best offensive line -- was even more impressive.
By game's end, a furiously blitzing Bombers team had sacked Riders QB Darian Durant eight times and it was reflected in Durant's final numbers -- 15-33, 129 yards and 1 INT.
Vaunted Riders tailback Kory Sheets didn't fare much better, held to just 65 yards rushing on a day when the Riders were held to a shockingly low 219 yards total offence.
It was offensive all right
The Bombers mustered just 23 yards total offence in the first half and did not record so much as a first down until three minutes into the third quarter.
And yet despite a woefully anemic performance in the first two quarters -- Bombers starting QB Justin Goltz was 2-7 for 12 yards and 1 INT in the first half -- Winnipeg trailed just 12-10 heading into halftime, thanks in part to a 98-yard kickoff return for a touchdown by running back Will Ford in the first quarter.
While still far from dominating, Goltz and the Bombers offence were much improved in the second half, with the QB doing with his feet -- rushing for 56 yards and 2 TDs in the second half -- what he couldn't do with his arm.
Dare to Dream?
The combination of a Bombers win and Montreal loss to Toronto on Sunday means the Bombers wake up today just four points behind the Als for the third and final playoff spot in the East.
What's more, the Bombers now play back-to-back games against the only team in the CFL with a worse record on the field and even more dysfunction off of it -- the train wreck 1-8 Edmonton Eskimos.
The Bombers play in Edmonton next Saturday and then host the rematch on Sept. 20.

What is the PAWSitive Therapy Troupe?
The PAWSitive Therapy Troupe is an Animal-Assisted Activities and Therapy program designed to share registered therapy dogs with patients and students in a variety of health care and educational settings.
The PAWSitive Therapy Troupe is an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) public charity dedicated to sharing registered therapy dogs with individuals in a wide variety of health care and educational settings--bringing comfort, support and encouragement through the unique healing power of the human-animal bond.
The PAWSitive Therapy Troupe is an Animal-Assisted Activities and Therapy program designed to share registered therapy dogs with patients and students in a variety of health care and educational settings.
Yes! Therapy dogs are NOT "service", or "assistance" dogs. Service dogs include guide dogs for the blind; hearing dogs that alert their owners to sounds; mobility assistance dogs, which may pull a wheelchair or directly support a person; seizure alert dogs; and others like them. Service dogs are covered under the Americans With Disabilities Act. People with disabilities can BY LAW, take their service dogs with them wherever they go, including planes, restaurants, sporting events, etc.
Many people are under the mistaken impression that therapy dogs and their handlers have the same rights of access as people with disabilities and their service animals. Therapy dogs are NOT service dogs. They are NOT allowed to accompany their handlers wherever they go. Therapy dogs are invited into hospitals, nursing homes or schools to work with patients or students on very specific tasks, or simply to bring their unconditional love to the many people who need them in these facilities. Therapy dogs and their handlers have no more rights of access than anyone with a companion animal or pet.
Therapy dogs are always first and foremost beloved family pets. You cannot "buy" a ready made therapy dog. Therapy dogs and their owners, because of their interest in therapy work have undergone additional rigorous training to prepare them to function reliably in health care or educational settings. Therapy dogs live at home with their families when they are not working.
Animal-Assisted Activities (AAA) share registered therapy dogs with patients or students in a variety of activities such as individual bedside visits, entertaining demonstrations or educational sessions. Animal- Assisted Activities are not necessarily goal-directed, but they are nonetheless certainly therapeutic in nature.
Animal-Assisted Therapy (AAT) is goal-directed intervention in which a therapy dog is an integral part of the clinical treatment process. It is directed by a licensed health care or education professional with specialized expertise and within the scope of his or her profession. AAT is designed to promote improvement in physical, social, emotional and / or cognitive functioning / reading skills. This process is documented in the health care record by the health care professional or in the education plan by the education professional.
For general information on Animal-Assisted Activities/Therapy, visit the Pet Partners web site.
If you are already a registered Pet Partner Team and would like to become involved yourself, please fill out our online application.

The brain is waking and with it the mind is returning. It is as if the Milky Way entered upon some cosmic dance. Swiftly the head mass becomes an enchanted loom where millions of flashing shuttles weave a dissolving pattern, always a meaningful pattern though never an abiding one; a shifting harmony of subpatterns. Now as the waking body rouses, subpatterns of this great harmony of activity stretch down into the unlit tracks of the stalk-piece of the scheme. Strings of flashing and travelling sparks engage the lengths of it. This means that the body is up and rises to meet its waking day. |

Truth has no path. Truth is living and, therefore, changing. Awareness is without choice, without demand, without anxiety; in that state of mind, there is perception. To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person. Awareness has no frontier; it is giving of your whole being, without exclusion. |

Today we give our thanks, most of all, for the ideals of honor and faith we inherit from our forefathers — for the decency of purpose, steadfastness of resolve and strength of will, for the courage and the humility, which they possessed and which we must seek every day to emulate. As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words but to live by them. Let us therefore proclaim our gratitude to Providence for manifold blessings — let us be humbly thankful for inherited ideals — and let us resolve to share those blessings and those ideals with our fellow human beings throughout the world. |

- Rank or add further suggestions…
Ranking system:
- 4 : Excellent - should definitely be used.
- 3 : Very Good - strong desire to see it used.
- 2 : Good - some desire to see it used.
- 1 : Acceptable - but with no particular desire to see it used.
- 0 : Not acceptable - not appropriate for use as a quote of the day.
The perfect way is only difficult for those who pick and choose. Do not like, do not dislike; all will then be clear. Make a hairbreadth difference and heaven and earth are set apart; if you want the truth to stand clear before you, never be for or against. The struggle between "for" and "against" is the mind's worst disease. ~ Bruce Lee (date of birth)

* 3 Kalki 15:24, 23 November 2008 (UTC)This quote is misattributed to Lee : In Striking Thoughts: Bruce Lee's Wisdom for Daily Living (2000) edited by John Little, it is attributed to Lee, but it is also quoted in precisely this form, from what appear to be translations from Taoist writings in The Religions of Man (1958) by Huston Smith. I would be willing to rank this a 3 or perhaps even a 4, even on this date, if full and proper attributions were found for it. (Current information which led me to exclude this as a quote from Lee derives primarily from looking at segments of the 1958 book found with Google Booksearch).- I really liked this quote. I was surely hoping that it was one of Lee's. Even if it was edited by Little and/or related to the writings of Smith, I'd still associate it with Lee, this was the best choice for the day with the deep message. Zarbon 03:37, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
- I've seen this attributed several times to Zen masters, specifically, Sent-ts'an (eg http://www.righteousmind.com/). And it isn't really Lee's prose style either - too much parallelism, which is a hallmark of classic Chinese. --Gwern 14:56, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
I'm not a master, I'm a student-master, meaning that I have the knowledge of a master and the expertise of a master, but I'm still learning, So I'm a student-master. I don't believe in the word master, I consider the master as such when they close the casket. ~ Bruce Lee

Let us put aside resolutely that great fright, tenderly and without malice, daring to be wrong in something important rather than right in some meticulous banality, fearing no evil while the mind is free to search, imagine, and conclude, inviting our countrymen to try other instruments than coercion and suppression in the effort to meet destiny with triumph, genially suspecting that no creed yet calendared in the annals of politics mirrors the doomful possibilities of infinity. ~ Charles A.

Thanksgiving provides a formal context in which to consider the instances of kindness that have enlightened our lives, for moments of grace that have gotten us through when all seemed lost. These are fine and sentimental subjects for contemplation. ~ Jon Carroll
I pray for you, that all your misgivings will be melted to thanksgivings. Remember that the shadow a thing casts often far exceeds the size of the thing itself (especially if the light be low on the horizon) and though some future fear may strut brave darkness as you approach, the thing itself will be but a speck when seen from beyond. Oh that He would restore us often with that 'aspect from beyond,' to see a thing as He sees it, to remember that He dealeth with us as with sons. ~ Jim Elliot

Back from the walk! Sunrise was beautiful this morning. My knees hurt but my glutes are feeling great. NYC is beautiful. I'm new to the area so this was my first time seeing a lot of the districts. While walking I kept thinking how compressed the neighborhoods were — every 5 blocks is a new world. I felt hungry about 4 hours into the walk, and at one point had this odd flushing of saliva in my mouth, but now at the 12 hour mark of the fast the hunger's gone. I'm tired but don't feel like sleeping. I'm 5 lbs lighter which I suspect is mostly water. Time for a cold shower.
Umm binge then cold turkey?

How are you feeling so far?
At the 22 hour mark now and I am ravenous. Trying to focus on work but it's not helping that work is page layout for a recipe book. The food I want most right now is Nissan Spoonable Noodles, Rich & Savory Beef flavor. I could dump one of those powdered flavor packets in my mouth right now. But instead it's a cup of coffee.
I'm still getting those random flushes of saliva. It's different from the kind that comes with smelling food. It's much more saliva—enough to swallow in big gulps. It'll occur for about 2 minutes and then go away. I've had about 4 occurrences of this since I started the fast. Odd but not uncomfortable enough to stop the fast by any means.
Another thing... my butt feels great. Like I just did squats, except I haven't squatted in years. I'm surprised just walking could make your muscle hypertrophy like that, especially in a fasted state.
It's interesting that you've been having lots of saliva. I've been waking up with a bit of dry mouth, but it might be due to my not hydrating adequately. When I first started doing IF though, I was totally ravenous at the sight of tasty food. I know exactly how that feels. It's a totally irrational kind of hunger, kind of like: "That looks tasty. I WANT IT IN MY MOUTH NOW."
Something I've recently begun doing is indulging in food porn. Maybe it's a little masochistic, but somehow, looking at pictures of really delicious food and not succumbing to the temptation of eating has made me feel kind of stronger in my resolve, haha.

Hypoglycemia (Low Blood Sugar) and the Heart

- How to Read a Study Record
The risk of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) associated with the treatment of diabetes increases with age. Hypoglycemia is a common reason for admission to hospital for older patients with diabetes. Older patients are often unaware that their blood sugar is low and asymptomatic hypoglycemia, as assessed by continuous blood sugar monitoring, is frequent in the elderly. There is also evidence that older people with diabetes are more likely to develop cardiovascular events such a heart attack and more likely to die suddenly when compared to older people without diabetes. It is possible that low blood sugar levels contribute to the increased frequency of these events, but this possibility has never been studied. The purpose of this study is to assess how frequently low blood sugar occurs in older patients with diabetes and to see if low blood sugars adversely affect heart function in these patients.
Condition |
Hypoglycemia Type 2 Diabetes |
Study Type: | Observational |
Study Design: | Time Perspective: Prospective |
Official Title: | Impact of Hypoglycemia on Cardiac Function in Elderly Patients With Diabetes |
- blood sugar measurement [ Time Frame: 6 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Track hypoglycemia with continuous glucose monitor
- Monitor cardiac function [ Time Frame: 6 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Track alterations in cardiac rhythm, alterations in cardiovascular autonomic function and myocardial ischemia, collect baseline data to design a subsequent study to assess the effects of various interventions designed to protect the cardiovascular system against hypoglycemia.
- Correlation [ Time Frame: 6 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Try to correlate blood sugar (hypoglycemic events) and cardiac function (alterations in cardiac rhythm, alterations in cardiovascular autonomic function and myocardial ischemia).
Estimated Enrollment: | 20 |
Study Start Date: | March 2015 |

Estimated Primary Completion Date: | June 2015 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
Investigators propose a pilot study in 20 patients over age 70 who have type 2 diabetes and are being treated with insulin. These patients will be enrolled from the elderly diabetes clinic at Vancouver General Hospital. Patients will be asked to come to the Gerontology research laboratory in the Research Pavilion at Vancouver General Hospital. A trained research nurse will instrument each patient with an iPro2 glucose sensor (Medtronic Canada). These sensors reliably and continuously measure blood glucose for periods of up to 7 days. Briefly, the skin will be swabbed with a disinfectant and a small catheter will be inserted subcutaneously. This needle will be attached to a glucose sensor. Patients will wear this sensor for 6 days. Patients will measure their glucose using a glucometer 4 times each day during this period and will also be given a log book to keep track of glucose values. Patients will also be asked to record any symptoms of hypoglycemia. At the end of 6 days the sensor will be removed.
At the same time the glucose sensor is started, a trained research nurse will connect the patient to a single use CardioSTAT ECG recorder. The archived ECG waveforms will be downloaded for QT and T-wave alternans analysis. The heart rate and QT interval will be measured at baseline and the end of each interval from the digitized ECG.
Patients and relevant family will be provided with in person education regarding the function and use of the monitor, implications for bathing and sleep, and contact information for troubleshooting. Patients will be asked to change the leads at home twice during the 6 days of the study. Patients will be asked to keep a log book of any cardiac symptoms during the 6 days of the study, as well as their activities. The glucose and CardioSTAT monitor will undergo time synchronization to ensure ability to do correlative analysis.
This is a feasibility pilot to establish preliminary data for analysis. The CardioSTAT monitor will allow assessment of cardiac arrhythmias, myocardial ischemia and cardiovascular autonomic function. The results from the glucose sensor and the CardioSTAT monitor will be correlated and compared to each other to determine if hypoglycemia has an adverse effect on heart function. Hypoglycemia is likely to induce autonomic responses captured on the CardioSTAT monitor and concordant ischemic S-T segment changes if coronary disease is present. It may also detect any resultant arrhythmias, although ischemic arrhythmias are uncommon in 6 days of monitoring. If investigators determine that hypoglycemia has negative effects on cardiac function, investigators may able to design treatments that would prevent these effects from happening in the future.

Good size but not durable I received this cabinet 2 days ago and assembled it last night. Overall the quality of the cabinet is very poor, it looks cheap (handles are plastic) and it is made of compressed particle board which is not durable. It is also very very heavy, around 95 lbs. The only positive thing is that I am a girl and I was able to put it together in about 1 hr. I would not buy this cabinet again and would instead invest money on something that will last for at least a few years. Save your money.

What a bargain!!! This was one of the best things I have bought from Overstock. ....for the money it does the job, easy enough to put up...When my mother saw it, guess what..another order coming our way for her. Shoes are now easily avialable and dust free, while the huge cabinet kept all of our stuff in place. VERY useful cabinet that is worth much more than the cost - what a bargain!!! :)

Extremely satisfied I ordered this one day and was amazed that it was at my door two days later! Some of the reviewers said that the quality of this cabinet wasn't very good. So I was a little concerned when I bought it, but for the price, I wouldn't have expected a solid wood piece of furniture. Once assembled, it looks nice and really improved our entryway which always looked like a mess with all our shoes laying around. I was definitely pleasantly surprised by how good it looks. The assembly was very simple. My eleven year old daughter and I assembled it in no time! Just make sure that you building it close to it's permanent location. It is quite heavy and would be very difficult to move across carpeting without some lifting.

Questions & Answers
Hello use12, this cabinet is made of MDF. The veneer is a laminate walnut finish. Thanks for shopping with us! L.B.
approximately how many shoes does this cabinet hold?
Hello kokjo2kids, the cabinet can hold approximately 20 pairs of shoes. Have a great day!
Are the door handles made of metal or are they hard plastic with metallic finish/coating?!
Hello ninz0891, the handles are plastic. Have a great day!
What are the inner dimensions of the shelves behind doors (especially height and depth)? My husband wears size 10 and most of his shoes are 12 to 13 inches long. WIll they be able to fit straight on the shelves behind the doors, or will they have to be kept sideways? Thank you!
Hello Nehak! The inner dimensions are 6 H X 13 W. Depending on they style of the shoe, they should be able to fit straight on the shelve. Thanks for shopping with us!
It says the frame is wood....what about the back panel? It is card board or wood??
I would say the back is not cardboard, but may also not be wood. Some kind of nice hard material though.
It's card board.
The webpage clearly shows the unit is available in Walnut option. But the only option when selecting to order is Black. Is it available in Walnut or not?
Hello ithom17297, If you click on the options scroll down it will tell you each color available with the price. Please feel free to contact us again with any further questions. Thank you for shopping with us!
Hello ithom17297, We currently have the dark walnut option available. There is no guarantee that the item will remain in stock. I hope this helps you! Thanks for shopping with us.
Do you think UGG boot would be able to fit in the cabinet??
sideways, they would.
Only if you remove a shelf. I had to trouble with putting my 5" heels inside, but after removing a shelf they fit.
You can always remove one of the outside shelves to make room for taller shoes/boots.
How tall are the shelves? I want to use this for holding dvds & blu-rays and I'm not sure if they'll fit.
Thank you for your question. The shelves are approximately 6". Have a nice day.
The shelves are tall enough to put your dvds on. I love the sturdiness of the product.
This would not be a good choice to hold dvds and the like. The shelves are not tall enough for this purpose.
there is 6 1/4-6 3/8" between shelves, not enough to fit DVD's
what is the shipping size?
Our information states the box dimensions are Height: 15 Width: 18 Length: 40 inches and the weight is 68 lbs.
I don't know exactly as I threw the box away but it is flat packed, dimensions in previous answer look accurate. It was easy to manage and quite easy to assemble.
Are the shelfs removeable inside and out?
No they are not.
yes the shelves are removeable. you can omit shelves for more head room and it does not affect the construction of the product
no they are not
Yes they are. Not sure why users are saying no. You can remove them just as easy as you put them in. in the instructions, the shelves are the last parts to get installed. Last in, First out...
I would like this in the maple color. Will you be getting this in soon? Can you let me know?
Items are restocked as they become available; however, we cannot guarantee an item will be restocked. Please feel free to check back with us periodically to see if the item has returned.
what is the width of the shelves behind the closed door section?
it is 30 inches
Can the shelves be adjusted in the height?
No, they are not adjustable.
No the aren't
what size shoe can this cabinet hold? Can it hold men's 13s?
I bought this for my husband and he also wheres a size 13, Most his shoes fit but I guess it just depends on the size, for the ones that dont fit, he usually just keeps those in the open space of the cabinet. I hope this helps.
The item is 16" deep, It really depends on the shoe type since all shoes are different, The customer can measure the shoes he is trying to fix and see if they are under 16", also there is the open part of the shoe cabinet where customer can fit their shoes and not have to worry about the doors closing all the way.
It should fit most size 13 Men's shoes.
Discrepancy - the Product Review says 13" deep, but Customer Support says it's 16" deep. Which is correct?
The cabinet is 16 inches deep. It really depends on the type of the shoe, since all shoes are different,
Can you please specify if there are shelves behind the two doors and, if so, how many? Are they similar to the ones that do not have a door on the right side?
The item comes with 4 shelves that are located behind the door. They are bigger than the shelves that can be viewed.

Bookshelves Buying Guide
Despite the name, bookshelves are about more than just shelving books. Bookshelves make versatile solutions as free-standing dry food pantries, open dressers or displays dedicated to your knick-knacks and tchochkes. They quickly convert into china cabinets, media organizers or shoe storage. Whatever the case, the right bookcase goes miles toward making your home into the haven it should be.
Best Materials for Cabinets
After deciding on the purpose and room for your new cabinet, it's time to think about material. As with all furniture, you will want to select a cabinet material depending on what you plan to use your cabinet for, as well as your personal taste. Take a look below to learn about the best materials for cabinets. Wood: The majority of cabinets produced are created with hard wood. Wood cabinets can be found in both traditional and contemporary designs. If you are hoping for durability in addition to design, no cabinet looks better and lasts longer than one manufactured using a solid wood. Cherry cabinets offer a sense of classic luxury while holding up to years of use. Oak cabinets conjure up the feel of subtle country beauty, and maple cabinets can look bright, modern and chic. Metal: Metal cabinets are terrific for those looking for a modern touch in their homes; most metal cabinets have a very forward-looking aesthetic, so they are perfect for a contemporary home. Metal cabinets are also great for home offices. Obviously, metal offers great durability, but it is vulnerable to dings and dents. Keep in mind that most metal cabinets have sharp corners, making them slightly less suitable for homes with kids running around. Glass: If you have something you feel like showing off, nothing is better for display purposes than a glass cabinet. These cabinets are certainly more fragile than those made from other materials, but they offer something other cabinets can't: transparency. Many glass cabinets are manufactured with built-in lighting systems to exhibit whatever you choose to place in them. Because of their show-off quality, glass cabinets are perfect for places you expect guests, such as the dining room and living room. Particle board: If you are shopping for a cabinet on a tight budget, looking into particle board cabinets is worthwhile. Particle board is a relatively new material produced by pressing wood particles together, which is then bound with synthetic resin. Furniture created with particle board is almost always the least expensive option and also the lightest, but you will sacrifice some durability. If you plan to move often, a particle board cabinet could be an ideal option. View All Furniture Back to Guides Directory View All Furniture
Best Knives for the Outdoors
Although almost all knives look very similar, outdoor knives are designed to serve a unique purpose or many specific purposes. Fishing and hunting knives make short work of hunting-related tasks, but they are not ideal for other survival needs. Pocket knives, multi-tools and survival knives are incredibly versatile, but they may not give you the same level of precision as some other outdoor knives. It is best to keep a variety of knives in your collection for all outdoor situations. Consider adding the following knives to your outdoor and survival gear.
Popular Closet Accessories
It's one of the most important rooms in your home: your closet. That might sound like an exaggeration, but think of how much you can fit in a closet with good storage solutions. Where would you put all your shirts, jackets, pants, shoes and skirts if you didn't have a closet? Of course, while closets are certainly indispensable, they can be made even more useful and convenient with closet accessories. Closet accessories, like closet organizers and shoe cabinets, can help you make the most of your closet space and keep your clothes neat and organized.
Best Bathroom Accessory Ideas
The bathroom is a key space in any home because it is an intimate area where you bathe and groom. Make it your haven or turn a shared bathroom into an inviting space by furnishing it with decorative and useful pieces. Look for bathroom accessories that help you relax and add to the decor. Here are some of the best bathroom accessory ideas to help you make the most out of your bathroom. Massaging bath mat: Massaging bath mats are bathroom accessories that can change your bathing experience. Suction cups hold these mats in place in your bathtub. By turning on one of these mats, you'll receive a full-body massage as you bathe. They're great for letting your circulation flow after a stressful day. Massaging bath mats are a worthwhile addition to your bathroom. Not only do they help you relax, but they also keep you from slipping in the tub. Select a mat in a color that is close to the one of your bathtub to keep the decor of the room uniform. Decorative mirrors: Decorative mirrors are useful bathroom accessories. Replace your plain bathroom mirror with one that has accents or an interesting shape. This new mirror will enliven the room while maintaining its purpose as a mirror. You can also use it for practical purposes, such as hiding a storage unit. Look for multipurpose mirrors that open to reveal a medicine cabinet. Bath pillows: Bath pillows can help you relax in your bathtub after a difficult day. A bath pillow offers support to your neck to keep it from straining when you lie down. They are convenient because they're small and take up very little space. Automatic soap dispensers: Automatic soap dispensers are very useful for your bathroom. They ensure that users will have plenty of soap for cleaning and sanitizing their hands. Soap dispensers are perfect for bathrooms that have lots of visitors, such as the one near your living room or in an office. An automatic dispenser detects a hand and dispenses a regulated amount of soap. View All Bath Accessories Back to Guides Directory View All Bath Accessories
Best Engraved Men's Jewelry

You can coordinate with your fiancee when choosing an engraving for your wedding band or surprise her with a cool engraving that references an inside joke. You might prefer to shop for antique wedding bands. Many vintage wedding rings already have messages and dates engraved on the inside of the band and can connect you to the past in a meaningful way. Bands:Men's bands are very trendy at the moment, inspiring designers to create interesting new rings. Some men's bands are engraved on the outside, giving the piece an eye-catching bit of exclusivity. Popular engravings include tribal patterns, flames, and animals. Dog tags:Dog-tag engravings have very important practical purposes, but their design can also be used in fashion. You can have your name or initials engraved onto a set of dog tags or opt for a picture or quote. ID bracelets:If you're looking for an understated piece of men's jewelry, then consider investing in an ID bracelet. ID bracelets feature a small blank plate made of titanium, steel, platinum, gold, silver, or tungsten, which is attached to a sleek chain or a rugged piece of leather or rubber. Your name, your initials, or a meaningful word can be engraved onto the plate, giving you a modern piece of jewelry with a personalized touch. Watches:Watches are often engraved when given as gifts, but you can have your own watch engraved, too. Having your name engraved onto the watch backing can give you some peace of mind if you ever misplace your expensive timepiece. If you prefer the styles of the past, add an engraved pocket watch to your retro wardrobe. Shop Men's Jewelry See All Guides

For the good of their own people and to avoid a widening conflict and far worse bloodshed, both Hamas and Israel need to show maximal restraint and end escalating violence that's already claimed too many lives. U.S. officials must reach out to moderates throughout the region to pressure Hamas to end its terrorist rocket fire against Israeli civilians; then Washington needs to re-engage to try to bring both sides to the negotiating table.
Sadly, that is easier written than done.
Hamas, emboldened by sophisticated arms and longer-range rockets smuggled from Libya and Iran -- and by more sympathetic regimes in Egypt, Qatar and elsewhere -- has reverted to terrorist type. Its rocket strikes at Israeli towns are designed not just to kill civilians, but also to prosecute Hamas' long-stated goal of the destruction of Israel. For the first time since the 1967 Six-Day War, Jerusalem was targeted. Longer-range rockets were also aimed at Tel Aviv.
And while Israel's retaliatory airstrikes are a blunt instrument in the crowded Gaza Strip -- killing civilians, including children -- Israel has clearly tried to target Hamas terrorists and their rocket-launching sites. No country can sit still while its innocent citizens are killed with impunity by an outside aggressor. As evidence of Israel's targeting efforts, half the reported death toll in Gaza as of Friday afternoon were militants, according to the Associated Press.
But Israel now needs to be very careful not to get drawn into the costly ground war that Hamas may be hoping to provoke. That Hamas' leadership would be proceeding so boldly -- effectively encouraged by Friday's visit by Egypt's prime minister -- speaks volumes about deteriorating prospects for diplomacy in the region, and how much rising Arab militancy is contributing to Hamas' harder line.
It is time for the many moderate officials in Egypt and other moderate Arabs with influence over Hamas -- who understand that the bitter fruit of regional war is not worth the fleeting triumphalism of rocket strikes -- to step forward and exert that influence.

Sen. Thad Cochran (R., Miss.) and challenger Chris McDaniel appear to be headed to a June 24 runoff, but it's not decided yet and may not be until the end of next week.
Mississippi law gives state parties the authority to certify primary results – and they have until 5 p.m. (CDT) June 13 to decide both the Senate GOP primary winner and if Mr. McDaniel, who currently leads Mr. Cochran by about 2,000 votes, got to the 50% threshold to avoid the runoff.
With 99% of precincts reporting, Mr. McDaniel is about 1,300 votes shy of the runoff threshold, according to the Associated Press figures.
Complicating matters is the unknown number of provisional ballots cast. Tuesday marked the first election under Mississippi's new law requiring voters to show photo identification to vote. Would-be voters without ID were allowed to cast provisional ballots and have until June 10 to show an ID at their local county clerk's office for their votes to count.
The AP figures show precincts outstanding in Hinds County, which includes Jackson, and Rankin County, to Jackson's east. Mr. Cochran won by a two-to-one margin in Hinds County. Rankin County split its votes evenly between Mr. Cochran and Mr. McDaniel.
But nobody knows how many provisional ballots were cast statewide and because this was the first election run under the law, there is no precedent to even guess how many votes might be outstanding, said Pam Weaver, a spokeswoman for Mississippi Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann.
One thing that won't happen is a recount. There is no mechanism under Mississippi law to challenge certified vote totals.
