Perfect for a child's room or at the beach house, this 100% nylon machine made rugs are very easy to clean and are non-skid.

Rugs Direct recommends you avoid using your vacuum's beater bar on any area rug. For complete information on area rug care and cleaning, please click here.
Rug is very thin. Just like a flat mat on rubber. Not what I thought it would be like. Very disappointed!
I was skeptical, but figured a $20 gamble on a kids bath rug for two sport crazy boys was worth it. Yes it was! We all love it and with the built-in non-skid pad this is a perfect size for the front of the tub. Service was fast and streamlined, will definitely consider this company again in the future/tell our friends.
I redesigned my son's room with a surf theme. We put up a new border, used this rug on the wall over his bed and added some matching throw pillows, WOW. This rug looks great and the bright colors really are an attention grabber. My son's friends are so envious of his new room.

Resolved questions
Would you help with these questions?
My mind and body waxed and waned under the fan. The sound of motors trilled as they moved toward our house, then lulled off into the distance as they rolled past. A train in the cut beyond the woodline made its shift as well, high-pitched and seeming to hurtle toward my single bed, as if falling toward me, as if I'd become some mass attracting the noise of metal and the metal itself. My pulse fluttered up into my eyes. I exhaled hard whenever the noise rolled past, off toward some other target. I don't remember what I dreamed, but Murph was there, Murph and me and the same ghosts every night. I don't remember what I dreamed, but finally I slept.
1) How would you explain "wax and wane" in the first sentence? Does it mean he was tossing and turning?
2) What does "the cut beyond the woodline" and "made its shift" mean in the third sentence?
1) How would you explain "wax and wane" in the first sentence? Does it mean he was tossing and turning?
2) What does "the cut beyond the woodline" and "made its shift" mean in the third sentence?
Additional Details:In the second question, does "cut" mean railway tracks?

Best Answer - Chosen by the Asker
(1) "Wax and wane" literally means to grow larger and smaller (a moon waxes and wanes). While I am sure, reading the passage, that the author did have a sleepless night tossing and turning, my interpretation is that here he is probably saying that he alternatively felt hot and cold physically, and his mind tensed up and relaxed at various times throughout the night. (2) "A cut beyond the woodbine" is the author's poetic way of seeing the train "in a small opening through the woods." Finally, (3) in the sentence just prior, the author describes motors seemingly coming towards him and then rolling past. Likewise, the train seemed to come at him, and then "made its shift" by then traveling past him.

A Semi-Hater Revisits Voyager

Re: A Hater Revisits Voyager
Year of Hell, Part 2
And the reset hits. Ah well.
What I really love about this episode is Annorax, since finishing the episode I've been using him in the Trek XI forum as an example of a really good antagonist because of the fact that you care about him and part of you wants him to succeed. He's not your standard villain who destroys entire worlds for absolutely no reason *cough*Nero*cough*, Annorax is a person first and foremost and his story is compelling. Even during the final battle sequence he is given that beautiful character moment where he runs into his office to find the lock of his wife's hair disintegrate before his eyes. That's how you make an antagonist.
In previous posts I made comments about how Voyager (the ship) never felt like a character as the classic Enterprise did. Well in this timeline Voyager finally gets the character I felt it was lacking; it held on just long enough to make it through the battle, and the ship's sacrifice saved the lives of billions. It is a beautiful idea, and it almost negates the fact that the episode ends on a big reset, but not quite.
I'm confused about what Voyager was doing for almost 200 days. The only reason I can think why this episode took place over such a long time-frame is that they had the title "Year of Hell" since season 3 and 80 days just wouldn't cut it.
It's a great two-parter, but it is a pity that there was no consequences for anything which happened in the episodes. It makes we wish that Braga's idea of having a year-long arc had been allowed, but I guess I'll have to wait until I rewatch Enterprise for that.

BSF Cuts: cancelled schools cost £160m
The cost to councils of the Government cancelling school rebuilding projects has been placed at £160 million, it has been disclosed
The Local Government Association (LGA) said that local authorities recruited and commissioned designers and architects and carried out public consultations amongst other preparatory work for Labour's £55 billion Building Schools for the Future programme (BSF).
The work should be eligible for use under any new scheme established to carry out school building work, the LGA said.
More than £161,448,000 has been spent by 67 authorities in preparation for building projects in their areas - such as Maber Architects' Tibshelf Community School scheme - according to a snapshot survey carried out by the LGA, which represents councils across England.
Education Secretary Michael Gove axed the BSF programme last week. He has since come under fire from MPs - including some from within his own party - over his handling of the decision.
He was forced to apologise to the Commons, and later said sorry again to council leaders, after it emerged that an initial list of 715 affected projects was strewn with errors - many schools believed to have escaped the axe later learned their re-building projects would be affected.
Councillor Shireen Ritchie, chairman of the LGA's Children and Young People's Board, said: 'Councils have invested millions of pounds of taxpayers' money preparing for school building schemes which they are told will now not go ahead. Town halls which have embraced this Government initiative should not be out of pocket and their residents should not end up footing the bill.'

KeepItPositive: Voters in Bedford Township will be asked to renew their law enforcement millage of .4 mills this August. With someone with a $200,000.00 house with $100,000.00 taxable value, it will be about $40 a year. The current millage helps fund a total of 10 deputies who patrol Bedford Township exclusively on a full-time basis 24/7. Bedford usually has at least two deputies on patrol at any given time, and often there are 3 or 4 on patrol. Because in addition to the 10 paid spots from Bedford Township, there are another 7 county-funded deputies assigned to that substation, including two detectives. In addition to that, there are 2 deputies assigned to Bedford Public Schools which are funded jointly by the school district (67%) and the county (33%.) So as I see it, this adequate law enforcement/Sheriff presence in Bedford Township is at least one decent return we get back from our county tax dollars.
What I like most about this millage (unlike other millages) is that the township never reduced the general fund contribution for law enforcement (the township used to pay for 6 deputies and STILL does.) The additional 4 deputy spots and patrol vehicles are funded by this millage, and the township has maintained their commitment of the previous dedicated tax dollars for it as well.
This millage will continue to have my support as I see the direct benefit every day.
bedford wife: I will vote yes on this issue. A strong law enforcement presence benefits everyone in the community. Crime is on the rise and the last thing we need is less officers. I have had the opportunity to interact with several of our officers ... they are all amazing individuals who go well above and beyond anything they are paid for. We especially need them now that the schools may cut a resource officer.
signal: I, too, will support this tax renewal. For one thing, it is an honest tax. It was proposed as a way to put a certain number of additional officers on the road, and it does. We are getting exactly what we are paying for. This is the way taxes should work - no hidden details, no admin overhead, no extra costs.
Also, consider that the Sheriff's Department may make more cuts in the future. There is no guarantee that we will always have the same number of Deputies assigned to Bedford, beyond what we actually pay for with this tax. If this tax renewal were to be voted down, and then the Sheriff announced that road patrol Deputies were to be cut by 25%, how many officers would we then have on our streets?
Mike Malone: I will support this millage as well. I think that if we don't it will be a huge mistake. I have seen several positive results personally. Bring me a yard sign!!!

I gotta say though, just hefting the Canon lens and the Nikon lens, the Canon feels a lot more substantial and solid. We'll see how the pics turn out.
Oh yeah, I got a FLASH, too, so there...!
That's a great deal. I started out in photography with that exact combo. About half or more of the photos on my website were made with the FG and either the 50mm Series E lens or the 75-150 Series E lens. It's a good, light camera. The only big downside for me is the small, dark viewfinder and the lack of depth of field preview.Quote:

The E-lenses had the exact same formula and glass as the professional lenses. 50 mm lenses were among the best Nikon ever made. That wasn't difficult because the 50 mm design was the standard lens for everyone. So, research and practical experience had eliminated all flaws years ago. And because of the large numbers sold, Nikon could produce them efficiently and cheaply.
But the E-series had much cheaper barrels and mechanics than the professional ones. So they are more vulnerable. Are you a war photographer?
The Nikon E 75-150, was made by Kiron, as were many of the E series Nikons. Very good optically. Just not as robust as their upper end line of lenses. It's almost identical to the Kiron 70-150. The Kiron is built more along the lines of the better Nikon's. Kiron was founded by a few former top Nikon lens designers.Quote:

Glad to hear I rescued a good little camera!
Gee, I want a FG and the one I was bidding on on ebay just went for $113 US
The steamer trunk was from the Titanic !!!
Estate auction sales in small towns are another thing. My mate encouraged me to go with her to one in particular in rural Minnesota. Stupid me, I did not go for the 8x10 enlarger with lenses which went for $65. I did get two gross of #2 flasbulbs for $5.
What knocked me on my butt was some scenic (hills, trees) photographs that went for over $100 each. They were clearly LF and not remarkable in any photographic sense at all. I learned later when I met the buyer that they were of part of California (forgot which part) which is now 100% covered in humanity. Who bid on them? A couple of sleepers - low-profile Long Island and NYC dealers in the audience. They really know how to find obscure auctions.
Well, it has been a bit since I posted this thread - was actually surprised to see it pop back up - but I'll take the opportunity for an update.
My little FG has been a great addition to my gear. I shoot it quite a bit, and even added two extremely cheap lenses - a Makinon 24mm f2.8 and a Soligor 80-200 f4.5 zoom (with "macro";) focus!). I bought the two lenses for $25 for the pair, and well... the Soligor seems to be pretty darn sharp, while the Maknonis a typical cheap WA - lotsof distortion, and plummetting quality if not stopped down. The E-series 50mm is a little gem - a little flimsy feeling, but I would say its probably sharper than my 50mm Canon 1.8 lens - but that may just be a function of me managing some better shots by total chance - I doubt its anything else, seeing how hte 50mm's are pretty hard to screw up! In addition, my wife loves it - its really comfy for her smaller hands. So now the tally is $30 for the FG, matching Nikon flash, 50mm, 24mm, 80-200mm lenses.
Having said that, would I spend actual "market value" money on that camera? Probably not - for one, its a different system than the one I have already invested in (not a matter of brand loyalty, just the monetary investment in a choice I made), for two - I have seen Canon A1 bodies go for about the same money on eBay if you look hard enough, an it is a more capable camera. Even if you compare it to an AE1, they seem to be twice as much on average - and are not twice the camera, more accurately they are basically on par - the Canon having DOF preview and a controlled shutter speed down to 2 seconds vs the fg's one. But the way I came by this camera, I am quite happy with it - it is what it is and I like it.

Other variant appears to be related to recurrence of progesterone receptor-positive disease
Monday, December 13, 2010 (Last Updated: 12/14/2010)
MONDAY, Dec. 13 (HealthDay News) -- A polymorphic variant in human histone deacetylase 9 (HDAC9) appears to be associated with an earlier onset of estrogen receptor (ER) positive breast cancer, while another variant may be associated with recurrence of progesterone receptor-positive disease, according to a study presented at the annual San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium, held from Dec. 8 to 12.
Kim M. Hirshfield, M.D., Ph.D., and Alexei Vazquez, Ph.D., of the University of Medicine and Dentistry New Jersey-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School in New Brunswick, evaluated the association of human HDAC9 single nucleotide polymorphisms at three loci (rs2239926, rs2240279, and rs2286003) with age of onset and recurrence of breast cancer in a cohort of 1,101 patients enrolled prospectively from 2004 to 2009. They performed genotyping using an Applied Biosystems TaqMan assay on the ABI 7900HT Fast Real-Time PCR System. They studied the association between HDAC9 genotypes and age at diagnosis in the 516 Caucasian women with ductal carcinomas.
In patients with ER-positive breast cancer, the investigators found that those with the homozygous variant CC at HDAC9 rs2239926 locus developed breast cancer at an earlier age (49.3 years) than G allele carriers (GG+CG) (54.1 years). However, in patients with ER-negative breast cancer, those with the homozygous variant CC at HDAC9 rs2239926 locus developed breast cancer at a later age (53.7 years) than G allele carriers (GG+CG) (48.0 years). Another polymorphism, HDAC9 rs2240279 demonstrated a strong association with recurrence in Caucasians with progesterone receptor-positive breast cancers.
"These genetic variants in the HDAC9 gene could ultimately affect signaling through the estrogen receptor, thus possibly leading to the alteration of the clinical features of breast cancer. The more specifics we have about how genetics alter age of diagnosis and natural biology of breast cancer could help us to better tailor treatment options in the future," Hirshfield said in a statement.

Officials at Standard & Poor's are downgrading the credit ratings of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and other agencies linked to long-term U.S. debt.
The agency says it has also lowered the ratings for: farm lenders; long-term U.S. government-backed debt issued by 32 banks and credit unions; and three major clearinghouses, which are used to execute trades of stocks, bonds and options.
All the downgrades were from AAA to AA+. S&P says the agencies and banks all have debt that is exposed to economic volatility and a further downgrade of long-term U.S. debt.
Officials at Standard & Poor's say they will also indicate shortly how local and state governments will be affected by their decision on Friday to lower the long-term U.S. debt from AAA to AA+.

Okay ladies,
I was thinking about getting certified to be an at home daycare provider. I have looked up all the classes and I know what I need to do to become certified, and I have been working with kids since I was 14 teaching swim lessons and various before/after school jobs in our school district. I have a few questions from anyone who does iin home daycare or who knows what their daycare provider does.
1. What happens if you get sick? You have 5 families counting on you but you dont want to get the children sick... What do you do? And vacations, what do you do if you want to take one?
2. How much do you put aside for food and up-keep?
3. What do you put aside for taxes? What is considered a write off?
4. How often do you have empty slots where income is missing... and how do you find kiddos to watch?
5. How often do you take the kids on trips outside of the house? How much is car insurance for your "daycare" car?
6. Is there other insurance you would need? Will I have to change my homeowners insurance to cover more?
7. I know this will vary by area, but if you dont mind sharing, how much do you charge and how much to you actually "take home" after putting aside for taxes, insurance, and food ect.
8. What do you include in yourcontracts the parents sign?
9. Are you happy with what you do?
I think that may be it for now... any advice would be great! Sorry about misspelled words, I have a few keys (including the space bar) that dont always work because a certian dd I know bangs on the keys while mommy is working.

Is it possible, and if so how, to obtain oxygen by breaking apart Carbon Dioxide or Sulphuric Acid?
Ask any plant.
You can obtain oxygen and hydrogen by electrolysis of water,in the ratio 1:2,respectively.
. You will need to add some Sulphuric acid to increase conductivity.
A good way to get oxygen is mixing bleach and hydrogen peroxide. Fun little home experiment.
But, don't be stupid enough to breathe this, if any peroxide vapor is in the mix, it would be very dangerous for you.
A magnesium flame is able to continue burning in CO2 because the reaction is sufficiently energetic to be able to break apart CO2 and consume the oxygen while liberating carbon.
What's the use of this if we don't get Oxygen as a product here?
Separate names with a comma.

Might have to wait a few days for delivery and OK it's a bit of a car journey but the way things are with the £ to the euro, you can probably pay for the fuel by doing a weekly shop as well. The BBC reporter over here, Mark Simpson, an Ulsterman, was sent back to N Ireland and then went shopping in both the North and the South for the same basket of goods. What cost the equivalent of over £11 in the South was only just over £8 in the North! A weekly shopping basket must save a fortune.

What Can Public Schools Learn?
Published: November 9, 1997
(Page 2 of 2)
Darling-Hammond sees teachers as the principal engine for reform, but says nothing about the ways in which teachers' unions have frustrated reformers. She even embarks on an extended defense of the profession against adherents of what she calls ''the 'bright person myth' of teaching,'' who argue that people with academic credentials, but little or no formal training, should not be denied access to the classroom. You might think that these would be the perfect recruits for Darling-Hammond's self-actualizing classroom, but it turns out that they're running the risk of educational malpractice. At such moments, the author, for all her liberatory rhetoric, appears to be an insider defending the ramparts from a new breed of critic.
''New Schools for a New Century'' is a collection of 10 essays that came out of a seminar led by two education scholars, Diane Ravitch and Joseph P. Vitteriti. (Personal disclosure: as someone who writes frequently about education, I attended a number of the sessions.) The authors touch on virtually all the ''outside-the-box'' innovations in schooling -- vouchers, charter schools, contracting -- as well as new forms of public school governance. Taken together, the essays constitute a powerful argument that the schools will never change in the way that Darling-Hammond envisions unless they are challenged from the outside.
Chester E. Finn Jr., a former Reagan Administration education official, lists what he calls ''10 structural barriers to real reform.'' The system, he writes, ''is engineered for quantity at a time when the market demands performance''; the stakeholders who control it ''have mined the gateways to their policy arena'' through regulation and court action; parents have no clear means of fighting back; and so on. New York City, for example, fields an army of reformers, and they are responsible for many of the innovative schools that Linda Darling-Hammond describes, but the teachers' and supervisors' unions, the local school boards and other stakeholders have made them fight for every inch of change. If it is true, as Paul T. Hill of the University of Washington writes, that successful schools have ''a warrant to be different,'' then that warrant seems very hard to come by inside most public schools.
''New Schools'' will confound readers who think they can tell the white hats from the black. The most appealing school described in its pages is the one designed by the founders of the Edison Project, Christopher Whittle's for-profit venture. The Edison design, which was operating in a dozen locations as of last fall, strongly resembles the restructured schools that Darling-Hammond describes: a focus on the core curriculum, minimal administrative staff, teachers given time to reflect and plan, and a focus on the school as a community, with teachers and students staying together for several years. Edison had to undergo the salutary discipline of selling itself to school systems and to parents, and that may account for some of the ways in which it differs from Darling-Hammond's ideal. John E. Chubb, the Edison official who wrote the chapter on the subject, notes that the design team concluded that ''standards that minimized traditional skill and knowledge objectives in favor of 'higher-order thinking' or other cross-curricular goals might encourage an inadvertent dilettantism or a counterproductive disregard for fundamentals.'' Edison may yet fail, but the irony, if it is an irony, is that by constituting itself as a private actor, Edison was able to develop the kind of idealistic schools that the public system, supposedly dedicated to the well-being of children, frequently operates to prevent. (It's too bad, however, that Ravitch and Viteritti didn't see fit to include a chapter on the reform-minded public schools, or networks of such schools, on which Darling-Hammond dwells.)
Catholic schools provide a very different model of effective schooling. Valerie E. Lee, a scholar at the University of Michigan, writes that she was no fan of parochial schools until she saw data proving that impoverished minority children were significantly likelier to graduate, and to go on to college, if they attended Roman Catholic rather than comparable public schools. Lee rejects the conservative claim that Catholic schools succeed simply by virtue of being free of bureaucratic control; the answer, she argues, lies in the schools' moral atmosphere. The ideology of Catholic schools, she writes, is not the individualism that secular liberals and conservatives share, but a communitarianism founded on a vision of the common good. Lee describes an environment that is small-scale and richly personalized -- very much the new progressive model -- but also inflexible and old-fashioned. While Darling-Hammond believes that good schools must be sensitive to student diversity and to multiple perspectives -- not one, but seven kinds of intelligence -- Lee writes that Catholic schools offer an intentionally narrow and traditional academic program, with ''the aim of a common education'' for all. The point, of course, is not that public schools should submit to the dictates of Vatican II, but that the Catholic schools work because they are free from the constraints that govern the public system.
''New Schools For A New Century'' is both an enormously hopeful book and, at least for liberals, a very uncomfortable one. In his essay on the persistence of public school failure, Chester Finn complains that ''we are easily seduced'' by the idea of public schools, though not by public housing, welfare or transportation. He would like us to get over this fixation. But schools, unlike buses or even hospitals, are not simply a social service but a means by which we transmit and refresh our sense of collective identity. We should cherish the publicness of public schools; the ultimate goal of all reform is to make public schools work for everyone. But Finn is right in claiming that school people have used our faith in the system to ward off threatening changes. You have to wonder how much longer this can continue.
In the closing essay of ''New Schools,'' Diane Ravitch advocates a voucher program that would allow impoverished families to send their children to the school of their choice, public or private. Ravitch says that she has undergone a change of heart on the subject as she has watched ghetto schools sink deeper into failure. ''I do not advocate full choice solely on grounds that competition is good, although I do think that competition is good,'' she writes. ''No, what I argue is that it is unjust to compel poor children to attend bad schools.'' It may take a sentiment this simple to shatter an old paradigm.

Alcohol Poisoning and Cardiovascular Mortality in Russia 1956-2005
Razvodovsky, Yuri E., Alcoholism
Summary - High mortality from cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Russia and its profound fluctuations over the past decades have attracted considerable interest. It was emphasized that cardiovascular death played an important role in the Russian mortality crisis during the 1990s. The mounting body of evidence points to binge drinking pattern as a potentially important contributor to high cardiovascular mortality rate in Russia. The purpose was to estimate the aggregate level effect of binge drinking on the CVD mortality rate in Russia. Trends in age-adjusted, sex-specific CVD mortality and fatal alcohol poisoning rate (as a proxy for binge drinking) from 1956 to 2005 were analyzed employing an ARIMA analysis in order to asses bivariate relationship between the two time series. The results of the time series analysis indicate the presence of a statistically significant association between the two time series at zero lag for male (r = 0.79; S.E. = 0.14), and for female (r = 0.58; S.E. = 0.14). The results of the present study suggest a positive relation between alcohol and cardiovascular mortality rate at aggregate level and support the hypothesis that alcohol played a crucial role in cardiovascular mortality fluctuation in Russia over the past decades. The findings of this study contribute to the growing body of evidence that suggests that a substantial proportion of cardiovascular deaths in Russia is due to acute effect of binge drinking. Thus, from a public policy point of view, the outcome of this study suggests that cardiovascular-related mortality prevention programs should focus more on addressing the drinking pattern.
Key words: CVD mortality; fatal alcohol poisoning; ARIMA time series analysis; Russia; 1956-2005
High mortality from cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Russia and its profound fluctuations over the past decades have attracted considerable interest.1-3 After a substantial decline in 1985-1988, coinciding with a major anti-alcohol campaign, CVD mortality rate was rapidly reversed and increased dramatically after the dissolution of the USSR.4 It was repeatedly emphasized that this phenomenon is only partially associated with the traditional CVD risk factors identified in epidemiologic studies.5,6 The results of population studies have shown that such risk factors as total cholesterol and apoprotein profile had little predictive value.7,8 This evidence suggests an influence of other powerful factors that are associated with the increase of the risk of cardiovascular death. Several scholars argue that these mortality fluctuations may be related to alcohol consumption.9,10 This hypothesis is based on a fairly close temporal covariation between trends in overall consumption and CVD mortality during anti-alcohol campaign. This evidence challenged the view on a curvilinear relationship between alcohol and cardiovascular mortality that has been reported repeatedly in the literature.11-14 Several studies point to binge drinking pattern as a potentially important contributor to a higher cardiovascular mortality rate in Russia.15-17 For example, in the Novosibirsk cohort study it was shown that frequent heavy drinking increased the mortality from CVD.16 Similarly, a case-control study of men aged 20-55 in the Republic of Udmurd established that periods of heavy drinking were associated with an increased risk of CVD mortality.17 This study reported that medium or greater level of intoxication occurred in a quarter of Russian men aged 20-55 dying from CVD. The role of excessive drinking pattern as a powerful risk factor for CVD mortality was emphasized in a study based on data from Moscow that reported an increase in deaths from alcohol poisoning and cardiovascular disease on weekends.3 These findings support the argument that binge drinking pattern may strengthen the negative role of alcohol as the major cause of high cardiovascular death rate in Russia.
The change of the paradigm from drinking volume to drinking pattern (heavy episodic drinking or binge drinking versus regular moderate drinking) as the primary determinant of cardiovascular mortality is supported by the mounting body of research evidence from other settings. …
