Loveland resident Loretta Craighead, 44, faces felony charges after allegedly getting into an altercation with both another woman and a police officer on Tuesday.
According to Loveland Police spokesman Sgt. Mike Halloran, an officer responded to 1518 Ranae Drive just before 7 p.m. on the report of a disturbance at the home. Upon arrival, the officer found a disturbance between three people, Halloran said.
Craighead was identified as the cause of the disturbance and as the officer approached her, she reportedly shoved the female victim. When the officer's flashlight fell on the garage floor, Craighead went for it and the officer was worried she'd use it as a weapon, Halloran said.
When the officer intercepted the flashlight, Craighead allegedly grabbed the name tag on his uniform, tried to pull the radio off his chest and grabbed at his belt and groin area.
"She continued to reach back towards his gun and that's when he increased his use of force and took her to the ground," Halloran said.
A second officer arrived and Craighead was arrested without further incident.
The officer sustained an abrasion to the hand but was otherwise uninjured. Craighead was treated and released from Medical Center of the Rockies for a shoulder injury.
She was charged with criminal attempt to disarm an officer, a class 6 felony, second-degree assault of an officer, a class 6 felony, resisting arrest, obstructing a peace officer, harassment, obstruction of telephone service and domestic violence.
She was remanded to Larimer County Jail.

Negative sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies associated with positive Indian Ocean Dipole (pIOD) events first appear in the seasonal upwelling zone along the southern coast of Java during May-July. The evolution of anomalous SSTs in this coastal region is analyzed by computing a temperature budget using output from a strongly eddy-active ocean general circulation model. The seasonal cooling south of Java in May-July is driven by a reduction in incoming shortwave radiation and by vertical mixing, consistent with earlier studies in the region; however, the model budget also shows an advective contribution that drives anomalous cooling at the onset of pIOD events. To identify which process(es) are responsible for the anomalous advective cooling during pIOD events, a novel process index regression method is used to estimate the contributions of wind stress, equatorial Kelvin waves, mesoscale eddies, and Lombok Strait flow to anomalous cooling south of Java. Using this method, wind stress forcing along the west coast of Sumatra is found to make the most substantial contribution to anomalous cooling south of Java, with lesser contributions from equatorially sourced Kelvin waves and local wind stress. Mesoscale eddies redistribute heat from the Lombok Strait outflow, and have an anomalous warming effect on the eastern side of the upwelling region. The process-specific temperature budget south of Java highlights the importance of wind stress forcing west of Sumatra relative to equatorial and local forcing, and explains most of the mixed layer temperature anomaly evolution associated with advection during pIOD events. Plain Language Summary Climate variations from year to year in much of the Indian Ocean region are controlled by a phenomenon called the Indian Ocean Dipole, which is similar to El Nino but centered on the Indian Ocean basin. The positive phase of the Indian Ocean Dipole, or pIOD, typically brings drought conditions to Indonesia and unusually heavy rainfall to east Africa. These pIOD events are caused in part by unusually strong cooling in sea surface temperatures south of the Indonesian island of Java, but the series of events that causes this strong cooling has not been well understood previously. This paper uses the results obtained from a high-resolution ocean model, together with a new method for analyzing these results, to study exactly how much sea surface cooling (or warming) is caused by specific processes in the Java region. The study finds that changes in wind patterns adjacent to the Indonesian island of Sumatra can explain nearly all of the unusual cooling that develops south of Java in years when these pIOD events happen. The analysis method introduced in this paper may be adapted to study how processes in the ocean or atmosphere cause changes in the Earth's climate system.

Braving the mud hills of his obscure Canadian location and risking getting beaten by members of the "Breaking Dawn" cast and crew, Robert Pattinson took time to call into Ryan Seacrest's radio show this morning for a brief chat. RPattz was surprisingly giggly (but to be honest, Ryan lends himself to that sort of response) and divulged a few details about his upcoming release, "Water for Elephants" with Reese Witherspoon, and the highly anticipated "Breaking Dawn." Here's what we learned:
As if this wasn't clear from the current Vanity Fair cover, he's an animal lover.
Robert formed a close relationship with Tai, one of the elephants featured in "Water for Elephants." "They're the most sophisticated, gentle creatures you could possibly hope to work with," he told Ryan. "I got carried around in her mouth the first day I met [Tai] and you suddenly realize how incredible they are."
Historical accuracy is so important to him, he even researched for his role in the Great Depression-era film.
"It's a big, beautiful old-fashioned love story, set in the '30s with me and Reese Witherspoon playing lovers. It's very sweet," he explained. "I watched a bunch of documentaries, but the main thing is the [Sara Gruen] novel it's based on is very historically accurate. Jack Fisk, who's the production designer, his sets were so incredibly authentic, and the costume designer and everything, it's an incredibly true to life adaptation of the book."
Team Edward fans made him nervous about taking on the "Water for Elephants" character of Jacob.
Wait a second, not that Jacob. "It's quite funny, as soon as I read [the script] that was one of my main concerns," Robert laughed. "I think the fact that he's Polish—Jacob Jankowski—takes away from [the similarities] a little bit. It's very different from 'Twilight.'"
Despite the constant buzz of media attention, he's content with where he is in his career.
"I'm pretty happy with the way things have gone. I mean, I stayed working, stayed pretty happy. I think that's the most you can ask for," he said.
Sadly, Robert remained mum on details from the "Breaking Dawn" set, but did set the rumor straight that his fellow cast members are not on lockdown while secluded in "the middle of nowhere" Canada. "They're being super-secretive about all the stuff on this one but I think I can get out of my room," he laughed. But the next two months won't allow Rob much time for anything else, as "Breaking Dawn" continues filming until the premiere of "Water for Elephants" on April 22.
As you countdown the remaining days until "Breaking Dawn" hits theaters, are you excited to check out "Water for Elephants" to get your RPattz fix? Let us know in the comments and on Twitter!

Plus size fashion is all about discovering the right fabric, color and pattern. Choosing plus size clothing can be a fun and exciting process, as long as you know what makes you look and feel good.
Choosing plus size clothing is far from complicated. The outfits selected need to conceal certain areas and to put emphasis on the most attractive bodily characteristics. Plus size fashion is no different from other trends— it gets regulated by major brands and their highlights for each season.
Summertime plus size apparel and plus size swimwear needs to be light, comfortable and made of natural fabrics. Cotton and silk are best. Plus size sundresses should come in beautiful pastel shades. Avoid white— it does add a few pounds in visual terms.
Plus size clothing should underline femininity. Trying to hide everything underneath tremendous pieces of fabric is far from the best way to go.
A number of brands focus on plus size clothing. It really is important to have confidence and to have fun when picking clothes. Plus size fashion can be just as entertaining and trendy as all other developments in the world.
Full figure fashion for the winter needs to be warm. Avoid horizontal stripes, but other types of patterns can in fact make you look slimmer. Choose elongated, vertical patterns, as these will make you look taller.
The selection of materials is once again of uttermost importance. Wool and cotton will keep you warm and cashmere adds a sense of luxury.
Understand the fact that the best plus size clothing isn't always difficult to discover. Have fun when you go shopping, experiment with different appearances and combinations. If it makes you look good and confident, it is right for you.next article >>

Nobody likes sky-high heating bills—global warming, even less so. Yet according to the Alliance to Save Energy, the average US household will pay $2,300 this year on residential energy costs, with heating accounting for almost 45 percent of that total. You can help knock out soaring heating bills and fight climate change this wintery season by caulking your windows. Though the gaps and cracks around the window frame seem tiny, they help contribute to the approximately 10 percent of heat lost through windows, according to the Department of Energy.
Plus, caulk is handy for other drafty crevices around the house, like in the bathroom and kitchen. And certain types of caulk prevent icky mold, which can muck up your indoor air quality and can cause stuffiness, eye irritation, wheezing, or skin irritation among sensitive populations, according to the Centers for Disease Control.
Below are six easy steps to plugging up drafts and lowering your heating bill.
- Caulking gun (ask to borrow your neighbor's!)
- Putty knife
- Old rag
- Candle
- Lead test kit (if your paint is really old)
2. Scrape and clean the area to be caulked to remove any paint chips, dirt, old caulk, or anything else in the way of a clean, dry surface. This can be done using a putty knife, which can be found at your local hardware store for about $5, and an old rag. Note: If the paint on your walls is fairly old, you may want to first test it for lead before scraping because lead-based paint is best left alone.
3. Get your tube of caulk and cut the top off at a 45 degree angle. We recommend Green Series Acrylic Urethane Indoor/Outdoor Sealant, which is Greenguard certified for healthy indoor air quality, and AFM Safecoat Caulk, a non-toxic, water-based caulk that won't crack or dry out. Or, if you don't have a caulking gun, try Titebond's Tub and Tile Caulk, which only requires hand power and can be used on multiple surfaces while meeting stringent VOC and indoor air quality regulations.
4. Run a thin bead of caulk (about half an inch) between the window frame and siding to ensure a leak-proof window. Also, be sure to push caulk into any other sources of leaks like cracks and gaps that your incense/candle burning revealed. If you're standing in front of a window and you can still feel wisps of air coming through, recheck it for possible culprits.
5. Smooth the caulk with something flat, like a Popsicle stick or even the pad of your wetted finger.
6. Go have fun while you wait for your caulk to dry, which can take anywhere from 4 to 24 hours (check the label for details).
**Still unsure of your caulking skills? Check out the Alliance to Save Energy Web site to get step-by-step video instructions on energy-saving tips like caulking windows and doors and getting a home energy audit.
Lead testing
• Lead testing swabs from Hybrivet Systems Inc
• EPA approved water testing facilities by state if you want professionals to test your water for lead and other contaminants:
Eco-friendly caulk
• Titebond's Tub and Tile Caulk (no caulking gun required). Meets stringent VOC and indoor air quality regulations.
• AFM Safecoat Caulk. A non-toxic, water-based caulk that won't crack or dry out.

"The trip itself was comfortable. The staff member ( lady) who helped us at the Montparnasse ticket station attended to our needs with utmost detail and patience when we needed to change a schedule on the return trip and booking for a car rental. The trip was delYed but they totally made up for the delay and made sure we were able to catch the connecting train to Lourdes on time. The only problem was there were no signages on the tracks to guide the passengers. A lot of confusion took place transferring from 1 coach to the other bearing the same coach and seat no. Conductors helped but some were confused too. "

Ellen DeGeneres has taken her love for the vegan lifestyle and turned it into a new website called "Going Vegan with Ellen." The portal, an offshoot of her official Ellen.com site, is an introduction to an all-plant diet and how to stop eating the animal products.
DeGeneres, 53, went vegan in late 2008 after reading books like "Skinny B*tch," "Diet for a New America" and watching documentaries "Earthlings" and "Meet Your Meat." Her wife, actress Portia de Rossi, is also committed to the lifestyle — and one of 41 vegan celebrities named on the site. In addition, there are helpful FAQs, recipes, tips on getting started, and book and film resources.
Despite this outreach, some in the vegan community find Ellen's commitment somewhat half-baked due to her relationship with Cover Girl — one of the largest U.S. brands to conduct animal testing on its products. "I love Ellen but you can't promote a company like Cover Girl and promote a vegan site ... you lose all credibility," wrote one commenter on the site VegNews.
"She might have signed a contract with them before she knew about their practices," wrote another, in defense of the star. "Or maybe she is trying to change things from the inside. If she represents Cover Girl and uses that income to support veganism, then more power to her. She does more for veganism than anyone on here complaining."
Whatever your stance, we'd love to hear what you think of Ellen's new site! And if you're a vegan (or thinking about it), we'd love to hear about that, too. Chime in below.

The Austin Mini had the fourth-longest production run of any car in history, behind only the Volkswagen Type I, the Morgan 4/4, and the Morris Oxford/Hindustan Motors Ambassador. By 1989, it still had 11 more years to go!
This ad for the Rover Mini 30 Limited Edition features 1960s icon Twiggy going all misty-eyed over some beater Mini parked near her chauffeured Roller, resulting in a bunch of hallucino-Anglo-sixties imagery overcoming her. Fortunately, she could have gone right out and purchased a brand-new version of (essentially) the same car she loved Back In The Day.

Nats happy with ball-transfer rule clarification
WASHINGTON -- Major League Baseball announced on Friday that the ball-transfer rule will be enforced, which means if a player catches the ball and drops it while trying to throw to another base, it is still considered a catch.
Before Friday, a defender had to secure the ball all the way until act of throwing.
Nationals second baseman Danny Espinosa is happy the rule has been clarified. In the fourth inning of an 8-0 loss to the Cardinals on April 17, Adam Wainwright hit a ground ball to shortstop Ian Desmond, who threw to Espinosa for the force at second. It looked like Espinosa caught the ball, but he dropped it as he was throwing to first base. The umpire ruled that Espinosa did not make the out at second. Jhonny Peralta scored on the play and Espinosa was charged with an error.
"I would like it if they took that error away, but they can't do it," Espinosa said. "I'm happy that it's gone, though."
With a runner on second base in the top of the ninth inning Wednesday, Angels outfielder Raul Ibanez hit a line drive to first baseman Adam LaRoche, who caught the ball but he dropped it as he was trying to double off David Freese at second base. The umpire ruled that LaRoche dropped the ball, and he was charged with an error.
"It's about time," LaRoche said of the rule interpretation. "I think they found out very quickly that it was going to cause a lot more problems than anything else. It's good to know."

From the May 2013 edition of the Glover Park Gazette:
The vacant lot at 2140 Wisconsin Ave. (a few doors up from Café
Romeo's) will become a "very nice, top-of-the-line" condominium
building within a year, according to local developer Zak
Elyasi. The lot—hidden for years behind a construction fence—was
recently purchased by Elyasi's parents, Abdul and Ramzia Elyasi of
Greensboro, North Carolina. Son Zak, managing member of Raz Development,
says plans are in the works to construct a residential building
that may include ground-floor commercial space. The development
group hopes to begin foundation work within the next month or two
and complete the building in the spring of 2014.
The family recently completed a project in Columbia Heights that
yielded two spacious luxury condo units, Zak says. Asked whether the
Glover Park building's façade would be as close to the sidewalk as its
blocky beige neighbor at 2136 Wisconsin Ave., he replied that while
final plans have not yet been drawn, "it's going to look nicer than that
beige building."
The lot's previous owner, Davar Ashgrizzadeh—who also owns
Café Romeo's—bought the property in 2008 for $995,000 and sold it on
March 22 for $1,250,000, according to city land records.

Once a week, my guest blogger (who shall remain nameless...okay, not nameless...let's call her Ms. Sassy Pants. Sassy for short) stops by to share all the things in her life that deserve a big, fat DELETE. Anyhoo, her majesty is back and this week, she's tackling the wild world of dating. Check out what she had to say and then come up with a few DELETES of your own.
Launching into the world of dating is no easy feat. And in reality, my life is more like an episode of "Punked" than "Sex in the City." I think I'd rather stay in, curled up in my bed, watching a marathon of "30 Rock" and stuffing my face with pizza, than have to endure another first date. All the BS conversation, asking questions about things you really don't give two shits about. The bottom line is, I just want to know if I can spend more than an hour with you without multiple eye-rolls.
But once you get past that first date, establish somewhat of a rapport and start doing the dating rituals...that's when things can get a little sticky. How do you know when things are working, when they're not and when you need to cut your losses and hit DELETE?
Here are a few things that should tip you off that your potential beau is more DELETE-worthy than DATE-worthy:
If they ask if your boobs are real…DELETE.
If they tell you how many girls they've slept with in the past 3 weeks…DELETE.
If they say they like looking at your photos on Facebook...every few hours…DELETE.
If they brag about having "seasonal" girlfriends…DELETE.
If they collect action figures of any kind...DELETE.
If they want to meet your parents after the first date…DELETE.
If they spend more time on their hair than you do…DELETE.
If they have an IV filled with booze…DELETE.If they don't want you to meet their friends…DELETE.
If they still live with their parents…DELETE.Thumb rings. Stole this one from "30 Rock"…thank you Liz Lemon. DELETE.
If they expect you to cook them dinner on your first date…Martha Stewart doesn't bleepin live here…DELETE.If they remotely remind you of a cast member from the "Jersey Shore"…DELETE.
If they talk baby talk...Mama-Wama doesn't likey the Baby-Waby tawk…DELETE.
And this is just a short list. I'm sure I'll have to revisit and revise as the weeks pass. Let's face it, I'm not getting any younger and the pizza eventually will start to take it's toll. But in the meantime, my finger is armed, ready and might I add just a bit trigger-happy to hit DELETE.

Petrino Out As Razorbacks Head Coach
Bobby Petrino is out as the football coach at Arkansas.
University of Arkansas's Athletic Director Jeff Long said Coach Petrino's relationship with the football team was "immediately terminated."
Livewire: Post Your Comments |
AP Commentary: Guillen May Be Insensitive, But Petrino Much Worse
Petrino's Complete Statement
He said Petrino was fired "with cause" -- meaning he will not receive a multimillion-dollar buyout -- and there were no discussions about ways to keep Petrino at Arkansas.
"This is a very difficult decision on a human and personal level, but I have higher responsibilities and I have to set that aside," Long said.
Long said Petrino's failure to disclose his sexual relationship with Jessica Dorrell before he hired her was"unfair." Long said Petrino gave $20,000 in cash to Dorrell.
Long said Petrino "abused his authority" and made decisions that "benefited himself and jeopardized the integrity of the football program."
University of Arkansas Chancellor G. David Gearhart issued a statement Tuesday saying, "This is a sad day for the University of Arkansas and Razorback sports. After a thorough review, Vice Chancellor and Director of Athletics Jeff Long has made his decision.
Mr. Petrinos contract establishes a process by which he may have his termination decision reviewed. Under that process, the review would ultimately come to me for consideration and action.
Given my role in the review process as Chancellor, I must decline further comment on todays announcement.
Interim coach Taver Johnson was expected to lead the team through spring practice.
Petrino admitted to the behavior after an Arkansas State Police report was released into his April 1 motorcycle crash on Highway 16 in Madison County.
Long put Petrino on paid administrative leave hours after the ASP report was released.
Petrino says he is sorry for what he calls selfish decisions that hurt his family and others.
In a statement issued Tuesday night, Petrino said he has "no one to blame but myself." He said he chose to engage in an improper relationship and then made "several poor decisions" following the end of that relationship.
Petrino was hired at the University of Arkansas in 2007 after leaving the Atlanta Falcons on Dec. 11 with three games left in the season. Petrino's record at Arkansas is 34-7, including a win over Kansas State in the 2012 Cotton Bowl.

The fate of my comic
I am taking a break from Toy Division for several reasons:
1. Going back to school + job. I like to devout most of my energy to school ..it's so expensive!, I don't
want to waste a bit. Some people can do school and comics but I'm not one of them.
2. I would like to do more illustrations
3. As much as I love it. It's hard devoting so much time to something I can't put in my portfolio/show my friends and family.
4. I'm a bit dissalusioned with web comics. Too much snarking, too much competition for
attention (it's worse then being a dancer!). Though I have met some awesome people through my comic
Toy Division is NEVER going to be an hugely popular webcomic- My writing isn't sharp enough and there isn't
any jokes about RPGS.
5. Sometimes the subject matter makes me feel terrible. It's hard to be proud of a comic that springs off
other people's misfortune.
p.s I love Pepsi and friends and will still draw them , just not as much.

New Caney
Some people are sadly mistaken about this little town, it is not just a little hick town. The one
thing about this town is that there are more drugs than people in this crazy ass town. If you need anything this town has it, gaurenteed. There is also a wide range of races in this town everything from gangsters to rednecks live here. There is alot of rumors going around that that town is nothing but a little hick town, but you are very mistaken. There is alot to offer in this town, after all, I should know because I lived there for 15 years, and I wish I were still there instead of this suburb of Dallas called Allen, TX.

Now the race for college football's title can really begin.
Oklahoma topped the first Bowl Championship Series (BCS) rankings this weekend, stealing the thunder of both Oregon and Boise State, the two top ranked teams in the polls, reports ESPN.
The BCS, which employs a mix of human-determined rankings and computer selection methods to determine the two teams that play in the national title game, slotted the Sooners, ranked third in the most current Associated Press poll, in the driver's seat to head to Glendale, Arizona, in January. If the game were held today, they would play the high-scoring Ducks, who came in second in the first BCS rankings, despite topping the A.P. poll.
U.S. & World
Upstart Boise State came in third, but will need a lot of help to ascend to the title game as the Western Athletic Conference, of which they are a member, does not get an automatic bid to the BCS. The Broncos seemed to be in a good position to crack the top two in the rankings by virtue of a dramatic win over then number 10 Virginia Tech to open the season, but as the Hokies have faltered, that win has diminished in importance and their weak conference schedule has caught up to them.
The SEC's top team is the Auburn Tigers, who took the fourth slot, and are followed by the Horned Frogs of TCU, another team that hails from a conference without an automatic bid. LSU is the sixth team in the rankings. Michigan State, Alabama, Utah, Ohio State, Missouri and Stanford round out the top dozen teams.
In the 12 year history of the BCS, 20 of the 24 squads that eventually played for the title were ranked in the top five in the first set of rankings. No team outside the top 12 has ever gotten to the championship game.
Both Oklahoma and Oregon have clear paths to the BCS title game; win out and they should hold their positions. Oklahoma still has to face two currently undefeated teams; they have a showdown with #18 Missouri October 23 and then take on in-state rival, #17 Oklahoma State, November 27. Should they remain undefeated, they would likely face Missouri, Kansas State or Nebraska in the Big XII title game.
Oregon does not have to contend with a title game, though they do have to travel to Los Angeles to take on USC and then face a stiff test at home against #15 Arizona.
Should either of those teams falter, Auburn seems most likely to benefit, given its wins over ranked South Carolina and Arkansas teams. They face #6 LSU October 23 and #8 Alabama November 26. The Iron Bowl could be especially important this year if Alabama wins out - not a given with LSU and Mississippi State left to play - because a win over the hated Tigers would move the Crimson Tide into the SEC championship and give them a shot at playing in the BCS title game with one loss.

CHESTER, Pa. – The New York Red Bulls will head into the playoffs with a lot of momentum – and, perhaps, a direct ticket to the Eastern Conference quarterfinals.
On Saturday at PPL Park, the visiting Red Bulls took care of business, using a brace from Kenny Cooper and a goal from Thierry Henry to rout the rival Philadelphia Union, 3-0, and put themselves in a better position to clinch a top-three seed in the East and avoid the Knockout Round.
The seeding won't be decided, though, until the results of Saturday afternoon's Chicago-D.C. United match.
For the Union, a disappointing season ended in very disappointing fashion.
The Red Bulls thoroughly dominated Saturday's derby match, taking advantage of a mostly lifeless Union squad, especially in the first half.
New York got on the board in the 11th minute when Philly center back Carlos Valdés tripped up Tim Cahill in the box and Cooper drilled the ensuing penalty kick into the bottom corner. It was the second time in the past three games Valdés has been whistled for a penalty in the box.
In the 35th minute, Valdés was victimized again when a streaking Henry turned him around and then beat Union goalie Zac MacMath to score his 15th of the year and put New York up 2-0. The play was set up after a giveaway from Union midfielder Michael Lahoud, who was replaced at halftime in favor of rookie striker Antoine Hoppenot.
The Union had a couple of chances in the first half, mostly from leading scorer Jack McInerney, who was dispossessed from behind by Markus Holgersson in the 19th minute on a breakaway. Keon Daniel later got numbers forward before giving the ball away.
MacMath who finished his first full season as a starter with eight shutouts, kept the game from getting even more out of hand when he took the ball off the foot of a streaking Henry in the 25th minute.
But things got even worse for the Union in the second half. Pushing numbers forward to try to get back into the match, they left themselves exposed. And Cooper took advantage of their three-man backline to score his second goal of the day in the 57th minute.
OPTA CHALKBOARD: New York run roughshod over Union
It was Cooper's 18th goal of the season – and fifth against the Union.
In the 72nd minute, Brian Carroll nearly got the Union on the board but his header hit side netting. A minute after that, Danny Cruz shot just wide after a feed from second-half sub Roger Torres. In the 89th minute, a last-ditch, wide-open shot from McInerney went wide as New York goalkeeper Luis Robles escaped with his second shutout in four starts this year.
A year after making the playoffs, the Union finished the 2012 season with a 10-18-6 overall record, similar to the 8-15-7 mark from their expansion season. New York finished 16-9-9 on 57 points.

With all of our modern toys and gadgets, it is easy to forget how simple things can put a smile on your little one's face. Even more amazing, is how something so simple can evolve into a popular toy. For example, our lead designer, Rose, researched the origination of the cute little Sock Monkey and look what she found …
The history of the Sock Monkey goes back to when the stuffed animal craze swept across Europe and the United States during the Great Depression. Money was scarce and people could not afford "luxury" items such as stuffed animals. So American moms, being creative and resourceful, started making stuffed monkey dolls out of socks, filling them with whatever was available in the house – paper, rice, even old pantyhose.
In 1932, the Nelson Knitting Company in Rockford, IL, invented a work sock with a trademarked red heel. These socks became known as "Rockfords." Not only were they the most popular work sock of their time, they became the basis for one of the most popular and long-lasting toys. When made into a doll, the red sock heel created a distinctive red mouth.
The Nelson Knitting Company soon became aware that their socks were being used to create this extremely popular stuffed toy. They decided to patent the pattern for the Sock Monkey doll and use it in their advertising and promotional campaigns. They even included the Sock Monkey pattern with each pair of "Rockford" socks sold!
In 1992, Fox River Mills acquired the Nelson Knitting Company. And while the Rockford sock is still in production today, the red heel design has undergone a noteworthy change. The red heel pattern that gave the Sock Monkey its famous smile has been replaced by a more oval pattern.
The Sock Monkey theme has seen a new growth in popularity in the 21st Century. While it has taken on many new forms and faces, the original remains steadfast. A yearly Sock Monkey Festival is held in Rockford, IL, where visitors can also enjoy a museum honoring this wonderful fuzzy fella that brought smiles to so many faces for over 100 years.
Funny how something as basic as a sock with a red swatch on it turned into a national phenomenon. To honor such American ingenuity, this month we are featuring our fun and playful Sock Monkey Crib Bedding set – and of course giving one away! All you have to do to win is tell us about an everyday item that became your child's favorite plaything – an appliance box that became a fortress, or a Tupperware container that became a pirate hat. You tell us how you, or you little one, created something special out of something ordinary. Leave a comment on our blog to enter; we'll pick our favorite and the grand prize will be, of course, a 4-piece Sock Monkey Crib Bedding set! We think you'll love this classic gender-neutral bedding collection.
Important: You must leave your comment on our blog to be eligible to win! The deadline to enter is Sunday, November 20, 2011 (midnight EDT). Good luck!

My Past Lives: Pieces of our existence
Posted 17 December 2016 - 02:30 PM
What I am about to share was THE most vivid dream of anything I'd ever experienced, to date (the future life was just wild to say the least, that's later).
I was a Renowned Healer in 1860's, some where in the southern states (like perhaps New Orleans?). I saw many slaves. (that was the general feel, and the only way to describe what I'd seen) Slave women, hefty, slim, all poor. No husbands in sight - it was during the Civil War time, of course all age-eligible males were drafted. I think I remember seeing small children though, I'm having flashbacks.. . Like very young children. Maybe one baby on a woman's hip.
I don't know what my gender was during this time, only that I remember seeing my feet or lower half of my body - clad in a long, white linen robe or gown - as these women fell before me, begging and pleading for my help. There were other's following me, walking my journey with me together, like my entourage or something, my group, my tribe. Maybe two or three here with me
I was walking into an open field of some sort. OR CROSSING THERE. There were tree lines to my left, spread across the expanse of the horizon in front me, a stretch of white clapboard type houses down this dirt lane, lined up along my right.
These houses were right next to each other. Several on either side of this gravel road, where, at the dead end was this Sacred Forest with a beaten path that led down to this field where all these women were running towards me... or I was crossing here.
***Maybe I had walked down that dirt road, but it did not connect to this special, magical forest. (*not sure about that part; due to the time traveled from the village to the forest... )***
Anyways... These women were crying, falling at my feet, pleading for me to "Save my son!! Save my son!!! You are the only one who can save my son (you are the only one who has the power).."
And I couldn't save every son though. There was a special ritual that had to be done first, and only then could I know for sure if her son was able to be saved. (I don't know why this is...)
I remember one woman specifically, pouring her heart out, tears streaming down her dusty face.. Her hair wrapped with in a Red do-ragg on top of her head, white cotton dress tied around the waist. She was hanging on to my legs and feet. She was not taking no for answer. (*so maybe they'd tried everything else and cut me off at the pass before I left their village. I dunno*) she said "PLEASE, ONLY YOU CAN SAVE MY SON!!"
... maybe here's where that ritual came to exist.
The bones of the young men who died had to be wrapped in this special white cloth. (And given to me later) don't know how much time had passed, for these to be BONES already.. That remains a mystery.
The grieving mothers had to nail a pig to the eve of their home. (Right in the front, right above the porch.) (I don't know if these pigs were still alive or dead at the time they were nailed to the eves... - - -* if so, then it would represent a sacrifice*)
Those pigs had to remain nailed up for 7 days. (For those who requested their son be brought back to life by me)
If, on the 7th day, when I walked passed their house, if that pig fell as I walked passed their house, that meant that I COULD SAVE THEIR SON. . (ONLY 3 SONS WERE able to be saved, they were chosen).
Those bones had to be brought to me, for I had a long journey ahead. I remember walking through the dark, in the forest, in between trees, only guided by the light of the moon.
I had to bury them in this Sacred Forest to complete the resurrection ritual..
Day 1, I walked far out into the middle of this forest.. To a stream.. Or a river.. I had to pray.. Saying prayers over these bones & the cloth they were wrapped in. They had to be buried around sunrise or by sunset.
After much prayer..
Day 2, I was on my knees in the mud, I was by the stream (not sure of my actions here)
praying & burying each set of bones.
Day 3, I was to go back on the 3rd day to pray some more??? And see that the bones had disappeared.
And then at the end of the 3rd day, It was done. If they (the 3 sons) came & remained. . Either Good or bad.. They were reborn. No turning back now.
The Aunt Jamima woman thanked me profusely, glad & knowing in her heart all was well.
..... The next post is a continuation of this dream, relaying information of my subsequent past life (maybe as I released my last breath in this here life, I took my first breath into the following life) during the same time or night.
Posted 17 December 2016 - 03:46 PM
- - Remembered as a dream, and I hope this wasn't just a dream - -
Okay so...
My husband and I were sitting in a diner eating breakfast, talking. There weren't a whole lot of people in there at the time. As we talked, I noticed he kept staring over my shoulder. Finally I stood up and turned around, and the woman he'd been having an affair with (unbeknownst to me) was standing behind me, off in the distance. We began arguing about his infidelity. Things went south real quick, he was getting loud, and violent, throwing our table over on its side, and slapped me.
(He was a high ranking military officer. I'm not certain where we were stationed.
I was young, like early 30's, maybe. He was in his late 30's - early 40's.)
He raised his voice at me, and I saw those other people who were dining, they started scooting out the front door. They just all left in a hurry, and one older gentleman glanced over at me with a look of regret and remorse. (I guess because I was about to get a beating and they wanted no part of it.)
As those people were filing out, I remember seeing these three men walk in, two of them wearing a dark green uniform and the other in an all-white old timey sailor uniform. (That guy patted the older man on his back on the way out the door and then he locked the door behind him.)
My husband seemed oblivious to his surroundings, struck me in the face with his fist a couple of times while yelling and screaming at me.
Next thing I know, those three guys are standing behind my husband.
The sailor in white (who seemed to have an affinity for me, he felt familiar) said, "We'll take it from here, miss. You saved our lives, so we are repaying that same kindness - same favor - you once showed us long ago."
The other dark haired one said, "You don't need to watch this. It will be too horrific for you to witness," and he shielded me behind the table.
And it was. As I was on my hands and knees, sheltered behind the table, I could hear screaming and yelling and pounding and things being knocked over and clattering. I was scared, shaking. I peered around the edge of the table. I watched for a moment as they beat my husband, savagely, kicking him and punching him in the head, face and stomach; he was bleeding everywhere. I think I watched the light go out in his eyes. I just remember seeing his face looking up at me from the floor. They beat him to death literally.
And one of the green uniformed guys looked over at me and said, "It will be okay now. Everything will be okay."
But the look on their faces, was just... Crazed and creepy. And I was astounded and appalled.
The time period was between the 1920's and the 1950's; I'm unsure.. It was whenever they first began building diners with the shiny metal bartops & round, red barstools at the upfront area. So whenever that was, is when this was.
And that is the last Past Life I've been privileged to know about. Which, based on the average life span of the first and second lives, it would just about be accurate, given my current incarnation now.
I do have a great affinity for the 1920's. It's like "I miss it!!" ya know? For no logical reason.
Anyways. Thank you again for your time and attention. I have more to say in another post.
Posted 24 December 2016 - 08:37 AM
Cool, quite interesting!
How much of it, do you thinks, is relevant in your current life?
Take my hand and we'll go riding through the sunshine from above
Posted 25 December 2016 - 03:35 PM
And what's weird, is that I have always been attracted to Military men. (The branch didn't really matter.) My first two husbands were both in the Marines and Navy. And most of the men I dated before and after were also in the Military. So that plays a big part of my life. (Or did, I am now focused on myself and my acquiring my PhD's.)
And also, I am a Healer. I didn't realize that that was my life path in this current incarnation, up until a couple years ago. But only recently have I dedicated my time and energy towards being of service to others.
Also, it occurred to me the other day, that I may have been a witch in another life (perhaps being burned at the stake corroborates my fear of fire. I'm okay with candles, but fire pits are pretty to watch, yet I am very scared of the repercussions if it gets out of hand.)
And ALSO lol, I may have been an artist in the life before that.
I sat down one day and took a long hard look at myself, my topics of interest, my likes and dislikes, what areas of the world I was most drawn to, and the time periods.
I found out (for me and my experiences) that the things I seek out and research may be linked to my past lives.
I love the essence of Witchcraft, Russia, China, the moon (Cosmos in general), art, Healing, Philosophy, Esoteric subjects, Spiritualism & Spirituality, learning every thing I can about everything I can.
So... Yep. Oh and last year I had a crazy dream about the moon and then another dream within that dream I remembered something about the dream I was having (Or a part of it was a premonition that came true, very interesting.) I'll post that soon.
Thank you, Moon, for your time and interest. I'll read through here to see of you've had any experiences with past lives and what they are.
It is a.. challenge.. of mine to piece together parts of our existence. I am hoping that by sharing my pieces here, that others may be able to identify specific pieces of the puzzle... I love this Game of Life!
Posted 26 December 2016 - 07:36 PM
Cool, quite interesting!
How much of it, do you thinks, is relevant in your current life?
I might should rephrase The Holistic Healer part. Lol I am in training to become one, learning and growing. I suppose I am already, like an acorn is a tree; it's what its destined to be.
So on that note, I have an experience from this morning I'd like to share. Gotta find the right forum.
Posted 30 December 2016 - 09:42 PM
Very interesting... I've had past life flashes myself. I may be off base here, but it seems to me that the 3 men who beat your then husband to death were the 3 you saved in that other life.

Yes, that's what seemed weird to me. (upon review)
What were your past life experiences? If you don't mind sharing.

Though it may be today's 'fresh', it's the latest revelation of an ongoing effort by several journalists to investigate rank influence-peddling, allegedly by Dimitri Soudas.
On Thursday morning, several audio recordings appeared on YouTube purporting to be conversations between two businessmen prominent in the Quebec construction industry, Tony Accurso and Bernard Poulin.
In what sounds like a telephone conversation, two people discuss how they would work to influence the appointment process to choose the next chief executive of the port authority. Their choice, just like that of the federal government and the city of Montreal, was Abdallah, a former executive director of the city until 2006. He was subsequently employed by one of Accurso's companies.
The voice reported to be that of Poulin says he would talk to Montreal Tory Senator Leo Housakos, then a prominent party fundraiser, and ask him to bring Soudas, his good friend, on board.
"It's not through Leo's relationship to (Foreign Affairs Minister Lawrence) Cannon that he's good, it's through Dimitri Soudas," says the voice identified as Poulin. "So far, he appears to be very capable of delivering the goods."
They discuss "compensation" for Soudas if he can "deliver something" for them on the appointment process.
When questioned about the latest development in this unfolding scandal, Contempt Party leader Harper said allegations about Soudas' actions are "categorically false" ... which might actually mean, in true Con fashion ... *correct in a different category* ... *untrue, but only in the details* ... or something else along those lines.

"This blog is like a fusion of the Baroque 'salon' with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West "saloon" with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven." – Fr. Z

As for Latin…
"But if, in any layman who is indeed imbued with literature, ignorance of the Latin language, which we can truly call the 'catholic' language, indicates a certain sluggishness in his love toward the Church, how much more fitting it is that each and every cleric should be adequately practiced and skilled in that language!" - Pius XI
"Let us realize that this remark of Cicero (Brutus 37, 140) can be in a certain way referred to [young lay people]: 'It is not so much a matter of distinction to know Latin as it is disgraceful not to know it.'" - St. John Paul II

Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm.

They may no longer be engaged, but Kristin Cavallari and Jay Cutler are looking like a couple again.
The Chicago bear quarterback took a seat in the ballroom audience at Dancing with the Stars on Monday night to cheer on his former fiancée.
Cutler grinned broadly and clapped his hands as Cavallari and pro partner Mark Ballas did an upbeat and sultry samba to "Crazy in Love" by Beyoncé, earning 24 points from the judges.
Cavallari and Cutler called off their engagement in July after 10 months together, but a source said recently that after a summer apart the pair were "working it

Dick Van Dyke is seeing doctors for an undiagnosed health problem, and he's seeking advice online as well.
"My head bangs every time I lay down," the 87-year-old actor posted on his Twitter account. "I've had every test come back that I'm perfectly healthy. Anybody got any ideas?"
Bob Palmer, a spokesman for Van Dyke, said Thursday that he's undergoing tests for "cranial throbbing" that's causing him to lose sleep. The sensation occurs when Van Dyke lies down, and scans and other tests have yet to yield a diagnosis, Palmer said.
Van Dyke drew a number of responses to his tweet for help Wednesday, including questions about what's been done so far for the problem he described as stubborn.
"It has been going on for 7 years. I've had every test you can think of," he replied, including an MRI and spinal tap.
Van Dyke has a strong constitution and is otherwise OK, but the "fatigue factor has become acute," Palmer said. Until he receives a diagnosis and treatment plan he's been advised not to fly, and is resting at his Malibu home.
He was to accept an award next week from New York's 92nd Street Y but canceled the trip.
Van Dyke's credits include "The Dick Van Dyke Show" and "Diagnosis Murder."

Snow sculpting competition back at Winter Carnival
ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — The Minnesota State Snow Sculpting Competition is returning to this year's St. Paul Winter Carnival.
The event was canceled last year because of unseasonably warm weather and lack of snow.
But this year, Green Acres Recreation will provide snow-making equipment to make artificial snow for the competition. Colder temperatures this year also will make it easier to create artificial snow.
Three-member teams from around Minnesota have from 9 a.m. Friday, Jan. 25, until noon Sunday, Jan. 27, to transform a block of snow into artwork at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds.
The Winter Carnival will be held Jan. 24 through Feb. 3.

Fan Fiction used to be the lifeblood of this forum.
Over time, as prolific authors moved on to greater things, the fan fiction forums have waned from their once-busy heyday.
To reflect this, and to try and encourage a more inclusive approach and greater critique, we have elected to reorganise the forums into just two. One is for fan fiction, no matter the setting and the other is for competitions, which I intend to start up again.
Should the fan fiction areas once again become busy, we will consider reintroducing separate forums once more.
I have moved the most recently busy topics into the new forum, and the rest are contained within the archive section.
Any issues, questions or queries, please get in touch.

USA's J'den Cox defeated Reineris Salas Perez of Cuba on Saturday to earn bronze in the 86 kg class of the freestyle wrestling competition.
The match ended in controversy when the Cuban wrestler refused to go on after Cox was awarded two points following a challenge. The Cuban wrestler was disqualified, and the 21-year-old Cox had bronze in his first Olympics.
Cox beat Balarus' Amarhajy Mahamedau 3-1 in the round of 16. He went on to defeat Iran's Alireza Karimi in the quarterfinals 3-1, but lost in the semifinals 3-1 to Turkey's Selim Yasar. He will fight for bronze at 4:15 p.m. ET.
U.S. & World
Cox won his second NCAA championship in 2016, which qualified him for Olympic Trials. He decided to cut weight to compete down at 86kg at trials, where he upset top-seed Jake Herbert en route to winning the tournament.
Two weeks later, Cox earned gold at an Olympic Games World Qualifying Tournament in Mongolia to punch his ticket to Rio.
In the 125 kg class, Tervel Dlagnev of the U.S. was defeated by Geno Petriashvili of Georgia in the bronze medal match.

It was only a matter of time before someone realized that Zac Efron is the kind of commodity that needs to be locked down and taken full advantage of. With a two-year first look deal, this week Warner Brothers put a ring on it.
The 22-year-old "High School Musical" sensation helped earn New Line, a subsidiary of the studio, $136 million internationally with "17 Again" and now they'll have first crack at any pitches, spec scripts, and books that Zac and his management team deem worthy star vehicles. The studio has already expressed interest in finding him and his yet unnamed production company a franchise a la the "Bourne" series. Too bad they don't own "Spiderman."
A lot can be said about Efron and his roots but, in our experience, he's an incredibly committed actor who made his way through the Disney machine to emerge poised, savvy and well-versed in the business of Hollywood. Case in point, Efron is the youngest actor ever to ink a deal like this with WB. We've long pegged Zac as one of the leaders of the new garde in Tinseltown. With a bit more experience and some roles to shave down his Disney-fication, Efron could make the same transition from child star to serious actor that Drew Barrymore made.

A dozen years ago, Hubby and I decided it was in our best interest, as well as the best interests of my three boys, to enter into a lawful union that would forever provide us a break on our taxes.
A dozen years ago, Hubby and I decided it was in our best interest, as well as the best interests of my three boys, to enter into a lawful union that would forever provide us a break on our taxes.
Since that major life decision, we've learned a lot about each other, family, and life.
We learned that food is much more important than sex or money when it comes to a healthy relationship. Food is going to happen at least three times a day or more. Food is a necessity and you will come by it no matter how much money you have or lack. But there is so much more to food than the obvious.
Cooking together creates bonds. It involves honing skills such as compromise, collaboration and communication. It allows for creative expression. Some of our warmest memories to date include our kitchen as the backdrop. And this is not solely because we were heating things up with the stove and oven.
Our kitchen is always in transition. As long as we are together, it will never look like the sterile, staged pictures of glamorous kitchens on the glossy pages of a magazine. There will always be homemade sauce splattered somewhere and at least one dirty cup, spoon or dish in or near the sink. The refrigerator will always be stuffed with fresh delicacies as well as old, forgotten leftovers.
Eating together is just as important. When Hubby went back to school this semester, which meant a gruelling six-day schedule of classes and work, we reinstated homemade Sunday dinners. Every Sunday afternoon, we gather around the dining room table like it's a holiday. We eat like kings and brag about it on Instagram. And while the food is great, the best part is being together and sharing family banter.
We learned that the porch is more important than the living room. Sitting in front of a television can be entertaining and relaxing. But just as entertaining and much more relaxing is the time we spend engaged with our neighborhood and each sitting in chairs outside our door.
From the porch we can wave to and greet folks walking their dogs or driving by. The porch offers scenic views of the sun, clouds, trees, moon, stars and angry squirrels blaming each other for losing nuts. The scene is always the same, yet always different. And we can talk about our days, share silly jokes or plan life events on our porch.
Lately, in order to preserve the sanctity of our porch time, we've begun leaving our electronic devices inside whenever we sit outside. If we don't answer a call or reply to a text right away, feel free to assume we are catching up with each other, enjoying cool breezes and chirping crickets.
We learned that having lots of money is not an important goal. Money is a tool. It is best to only use what we have while trying to set some aside. Sometimes we might even have enough extra to enjoy a date night at a restaurant with a wine list and linen napkins.
Sometimes our checking account will be depleted by the needs of our children, pets and cars, leaving us with a date night menu of rice and something dug out of the back of the freezer, thawed and grilled with rosemary from our garden.
We learned that arguments are important. They don't always have to be loud enough to rattle the windows and cause the neighborhood watch to go on alert, but they do need to occur. We do need to experience emotions together, and we need to find our way back to each other through the emotional turmoils of life.
There are both productive and destructive ways to argue. We've had our share of each. After a dozen years, it finally feels like the destructive arguments are waning and the productive ones are more prevalent. Arguments in general seem to be on the decline. Maybe we're getting better at this relationship thing.
We learned that we'd rather be with each other than anyone else. When we are apart, even if we really needed and craved the space, embracing the freedom like a long lost puppy, we miss each other desperately.
Not to say that we don't annoy the living petunias out of each other. I could write a full-length novel on the list of things I wish Hubby did differently, would stop doing, or would please, please remember to do, even just once. Hubby could dictate volumes on my shortcomings.
But the thing is, everyone comes with their own laundry list of traits that make them incompatible with other human beings. We happen to be fortunate enough to share a few core commonalities and values upon which we've built a relatively strong relationship.
Here's to lots more time in the kitchen, at the table and on the porch, and a couple of dozen more anniversaries with you, Hubby.

INDIANAPOLIS -- With testing scheduled to begin in exactly one month, five additional teams have joined their respective fields for the PRO National Warmup, January 19 - 21 at Southwestern International Raceway (SIR) in Tucson, Arizona.
1999 NHRA Winston Champion Tony Schumacher will unveil the newest U.S. Army Top Fuel entry and new teammate Whit Bazemore will debut the new Matco Tools Pontiac Firebird out of the expanded stable of team owner Don Schumacher.
Also scheduled for the Tucson event is fan favorite Scotty Cannon with his wild Oakley Camaro tuned this year by veteran crew chief Wes Cerny.
Tim Gibson will be in Tucson to oversee the aerodynamic development of the newest Ford Mustangs of John Force and Tony Pedregon and to drive the Bill Miller Top Fuel Dragster -- not necessarily in that order or priority.
Gary Densham, whose Auto Club of Southern California Pontiac Funny Car is being duplicated as a 70 foot float for the Tournament of Roses Parade, will be in Tucson with his real 310 MPH Pontiac.
The PRO National Warmup offers racers and fans a three day testing extravaganza just two weeks prior to the NHRA season opener, the Autozone Winternationals in Pomona, California. Tucson fans will see the biggest stars in NHRA Winston Drag Racing for ticket prices starting at $10. The SIR quarter mile is rated by drivers as one of the finest in the country and fans will enjoy the view from an expanded grandstand seating section.
For additional event information, contact PRO at 317-280-1320 or SIR

Palm's as-yet-unlaunched Treo 850 has appeared on the web, and it would indeed appear to be the company's first handset with Wi-Fi on board.
A slightly blurry picture of the phone has turned up on website BGR showing the Windows Mobile handset running Internet Explorer which, in turn, lists the device as the "Palm 850".
The phone has the same design concept as the Treo 500 and Centro, albeit tweaked slightly. The navpad is now circular, for instance, as are the call-make and call-break keys. As per the 500 and Centro, the Qwerty microkeyboard grid is linear not curved.
Palm's Treo 850: Wi-Fi switch on the side?
Image courtesy BGR
There's a sideways shot too, which reveals a key clearly embossed with a classic wireless signal strength icon, which suggests to us the handset does indeed come with Wi-Fi - and a key to disable it if your battery's running low.
They key's on the lower left-hand side next to what would seem to be the infrared port.
So far, speculation on the nature of Palm's next Treo has centred on a device called the 800, aka 'Zeppelin'. It's suggested that Zeppelin will have a 320 x 320 display, EvDO - a US 3G technology - and GPS in addition to Wi-Fi.
