Lysine- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.
This supplement has been used in connection with the following health conditions:
Used for Amount Why Cold Sores1 to 3 grams daily [3 stars] Supplementing with lysine may reduce recurrences by suppressing the virus that causes sores. Genital Herpes1,000 mg daily [2 stars] Taking lysine may speed healing and help prevent future outbreaks. Shingles and Postherpetic NeuralgiaRefer to label instructions [1 star] Because shingles is caused by a herpes virus, some doctors believe that lysine could help, since it inhibits replication of herpes simplex, a related virus. Lysine is an essential amino acid needed for growth and to help maintain nitrogen balance in the body. (Essential amino acids cannot be made in the body and must be supplied by the diet or supplements.)

I've had shingles and problems with cold sores; 2 different forms of herpes. When I had shingles, I took three or four of these per day. For prevention, I take one in the AM and one in the PM. When I feel a cold sore coming on, I take an extra one at lunchtime. Overall, I rarely have cold sores anymore, and when I do get one, it is smaller and clears up faster.

Convenient location and very cheap price for a hotel. I am very happy with their service and the place is very clean. I highly recommend this place for people looking for a perfect and low price hotel. It is like a home away from home.
I feel very happy with the value.. I feel very happy with the value. Great Price, The customer service and service overall was amazing. And they have best location and their staff are pretty nice people. They did such a great work.
Convenient Location. I visited oceanside to see my husband that is at his MOS for the USMC. We were satisfied with what we paid for. A cab could get us to the nearby mall, the strip, train station, in at least 10 dollars.
Always a pleasure.
The conference center is great. I always get the set up and service I want.
Exceeded our expectations. The hotel exceeded our expectations for the price that we were charged, especially given that it was located in Oceanside, CA which is a pretty upscale area. The room was clean and the staff was fairly attentive to our needs.
Nice place. The hotel was nice enough for us to stay in with our child. The parking was a bit cramp but we were still able to find a close parking to our room. I would recommend this hotel to anyone who is traveling out to san Diego or in Oceanside.
Friendly Faces. Arrived and was met with a friendly face. Hotel is a little off the beaten path, but just a few blocks from a very good mexican Resturant and about a mile from a good Sports Bar.
Great room and Value. Hotel was great for our Labor Day trip to Legoland/Disney. Oceanside has great beaches as well
I enjoy this place. I do enjoy that this property is pet friendly and still offer a few smoking rooms, which is a rarity in California these days. I also like that a few rooms have a patio or balcony, so I can step out for a private breath of fresh air

Troy Aikman: NFL May Not Remain No. 1 Sport
Tuesday, February 21, 2012 7:37 am
Written by: Ben Maller
Undoubtedly the National Football League is king, but a Dallas Cowboys legend thinks trouble may be coming.
Hall of Famer Troy Aikman, the lead analyst on the NFL on Fox, told a Los Angeles forum last Friday he feels the wildly popular sport may be in jeopardy.
"The long-term viability, to me anyway, is somewhat in question as far as what this game is going to look like 20 years from now," Aikman said.
The Super Bowl XXVII MVP said the NFL Network's struggles should be a red flag to owners: "People couldn't get [the channel] in the homes and, all of sudden, fans, me included, were saying, 'I wasn't getting the Thursday night game and I was OK with that.' Thats not a good thing."
Aikman spoke of his worry about the dilution of a product that is currently wildly popular.
"At one time, watching football was an event," Aikman said. "'Monday Night Football' was a big event. Now you get football Sunday, you get it Monday, you get it Thursday and, late in the year, you get it on Saturday."
Aikman did not mention which sport might end up passing football in popularity.
"I think were going to look back at this point in time and say these were the missteps that the National Football League took that kept football from being the No. 1 sport," Aikman said, as reported by the Los Angeles Times. "I believe, and this is my opinion, that at some point football is not going to be the number one sport. You talk about the ebbs and flows of whats popular and whats not. At some point, the TV ratings are not going to be there. I cant justify that because the numbers say otherwise (now), but I guess time will tell."
Aikman debuted with the Cowboys in 1989, playing until 2000 in a career that included six Pro Bowl births and three Super Bowl championships alongside Emmitt Smith and Michael Irvin. The former UCLA quarterback passed for 32,942 yards and 165 touchdowns during his pro career. He ended up the winningest starting quarterback of any decade with 90 of 94 career wins occurring in 1990s.
The Cowboys great also mentioned his concern about concussions, and whether anything can be done to remedy a situation that doesn't seem to be getting any better with increased research.
Aikman said if he had a son, "I dont know if I would be encouraging him to play."

Question: What was the highlight of your summer?
Mason and Keegan Cardman
Mason Cardman, 4, and her sister, Keegan, 8, enjoyed spending time with their grandma and grandpa, Karen and Bill Cardman.
"We had tennis, golf and swimming lessons at the Longboat Key Club," Mason said.
Keegan added: "And we saw a turtle nest."
But, most of all, Mason loved, "swimming and the beach."
Jeanine Stebbins
"It was watching my 16-month-old son, Trey, continue to learn. In sign language he was always asking for 'more cookies,' and he did learn how to say 'thank you.' He attends The Learning Chest in Sarasota."
Tom Greeley
"Definitely the highlight of my summer was learning that I am going to become an uncle. My brother, Tim, and his wife, Lauren, are expecting their first baby, a girl, in January. I think they are going to name her Olivia."
Mollie Dutton
"The highlight of my summer was the same as it has been every summer since the late 1950s — spending time at our cottage on Walloon Lake in northern Michigan. It is a wonderful place to relax with family."
Alan Ackerman
"A lot of my friends went to Europe, China and world cruises, but I went to Hayes, Kansas, a little town in the middle of nowhere. I visited an old friend, Chap Rackaway, who is a professor at the university there. It was hotter than blazes and, fortunately, I only stayed three days."
Paulus Egers
"I read a few more books, relaxed a bit, but, really, my summer or vacation time is here on Longboat Key. I am an interior architect from the Netherlands, and each year I visit and stay at our family condo. I am looking forward to a month here."

Unique Funding Opportunities
The Lakeland College women's basketball team - normally decked out in navy blue and gold - will be sporting red on Thursday, December 6, when the Muskies host their inaugural Red Out, an evening of information and fundraising for the American Heart Association.
Fans attending that night's 7 p.m. game against Maranatha Baptist Bible College are encouraged to wear red as the college partners with the American Heart Association (AHA) to help spread the word about the importance of heart health and risks associated with heart disease.
Lakeland Professor of Music Janet Herrick will be an honorary coach with the women's basketball team. Herrick is a heart attack survivor, and she underwent successful open heart surgery this past spring to repair an unrelated heart defect.
Prizes will be available throughout the game, and some special halftime activities are planned. Staff members from Coulis Cardiology will be on hand to share information about heart disease and heart health.
Heart disease and stroke are the No. 1 and No. 4 killers in America and Sheboygan County, accounting for over 33 percent of all deaths locally, according to the American Heart Association. Moderate to brisk walking for one hour can add two hours to your life expectancy.
The American Heart Association educates over 5,000 students in Sheboygan County each year on being heart healthy, certifies local hospitals as providing the best treatment after a stroke, and has successfully lobbied for everything from AED placement to smoke-free workplaces all in the name of healthier hearts and longer lives in Sheboygan County.

Simply Put The Speaker is WrongSimply Put The Speaker is Wrong And so is any member of the Council of color that did not speak up against this new revision to the city's campaign finance law in the democratic caucus meetings (you know who you are). This law is wrong for the very basic fact that it is local government trying to determine which political speech ought to be heard the loudest and that is emphatically wrong. But there are other reasons: 1. Limiting contributions for some while doing nothing the decrease the very clear advantage of wealthy candidates like Mayor Bloomberg is unconscionable; 2. The law creates a protected class that needs little protection when it comes to elections: labor unions. They are some of the most powerful folks in the process as is - with their already considerable advantage in manpower, get-out-the-vote efforts and endorsements 3. This law not only limits who and how much can be contributed but it also takes money away from candidates. As the bill no longer holds exempt the costs related to compliance and fundraising that were exempt just last election cycle. This will costs candidates who can least afford it upwards of $20,000 that were once used to talk directly with voters and field activities will now have to be saved to pay lawyers as they maneuver through the complex Campaign Finance Board that is also a creation of law by the Council. (How many candidates do you know have $20,000 lying around after an election to pay for lawyers and compliance?) This law is violation of speech but it also hurts candidates of color in the city disproportionately. Look at the campaign filings of the candidates of color in NYC and see who were the contributors who wrote checks of $2,000 or more (City Council only) - they are the labor unions, the lobbyists and so-called "people who do business with the city". (Which could be a daycare provider). Most people who live in communities of color in this city cannot afford to write their city council candidate of choice a $2,000+ check and pay their bills at the same time. This may not be an issue for those who live on the Upper East Side or West Side of Manhattan, but it is for those who live in Harlem and the South Bronx and in Central Brooklyn. If the unions are the only remaining source for the larger contributions for candidates of color in NYC - how likely will it be that they can afford to take positions that may hurt the unions, even if they are good for the city? (I would say unlikely at best).

**I wrote this story in April of 2009, as part of my requirements to fulfill my journalism degree at Columbia University. I didn't want to let it quietly hibernate on my laptop through another prom season, so I'm posting it here. And just to be clear, this issue is not only present in the deep South. Throughout my research, I found recent (within the past decade) segregated proms scattered throughout the US, included a "Russians Only" prom in Brooklyn. I do think, at this point, Wilcox County holds the only remaining segregated prom–though my research is certainly not exhaustive. **
United We Stand, Divided We Dance: Wilcox County Proms in Black and White
The classrooms at Wilcox County High in Rochelle, Georgia stand empty on a cool, sunny Thursday morning. Whitney Turner, a petite junior with a headful of tiny braids, chocolate skin and wide-set expressive eyes, shifts her weight and studies her feet. Her stiletto heels sink in the soft earth. She's sandwiched between her identical twin Brittney and their friend Regan Beale. When Whitney turns to survey the crowd, Beale's long blond hair brushes her cheek. The whole school, black and white, has turned out. Everyone loved Jay McDuffie.
Brittney clings to Whitney and sniffs, swiping her eyes with the back of her hand. Beale stares stoically ahead, yanking at the hem of her baby-doll dress as Britt Peavy, pastor of Pitts Church of God, says, "Jay was always laughing and joking. He wouldn't want y'all to mope around."
On cue, Michael McDuffie and Mac McKinney, both 19, crank their engines and, with their trucks still in park, slam on the gas. The quick, satisfying bursts are their own eulogy to the lean, blue-eyed 17-year-old who had been Michael's brother and McKinney's best friend—the boy who lived in his John Deere hoodie, loved souped-up trucks and massive parties and four days ago, slammed his Chevy into a tree at 80 mph, ending his life on Rochelle's infamous S-curves.
As the final roar descends into silence, punctuated by muffled weeping, Whitney thinks about Jay's father, Police Chief Michael McDuffie. An hour ago in the high school gym, he had begged his son's peers—"Please slow down." February 8, 2009, in the wee hours of Sunday morning, Chief McDuffie had discovered his son's mangled body.

Each of the three images created in these instructional videos present their
own challenges but they all share one thing – each makes extensive use of the
Shadertree in modo 401. Working with supplied models and images, the videos will
guide you through the thought processes and mechanics of increasing the visual
sophistication of the final image in a step-by-step fashion. By watching and
listening to Ryan explain his expert approach to getting the most out of the
Shadertree, each of the three supplied videos will deepen your knowledge of this
critical part of modo.
The videos are narrated in English and are most appropriate for people with some
modo experience. If you are new to modo's Shadertree system, this free video
will provide you with a basic overview.
Shadertree Essentials Series Includes:
Video Parts 01 - 03
Total Running Time: 3 hours 26 minutes
Experience Level:
Intermediate modo user. If you need to become familiar with basic Shadertree
functionality view this free video on Luxology TV before
embarking on these tutorials.
Software Required:
modo 401. Photoshop is recommended.
The Video Tutorial was developed using modo 401.
Note: Your Training Videos are delivered online in 1280 x 720 QuickTime
(H.264) format and will be available for download through your Registered
Training page upon purchase. The Training Video is licensed to each individual
and is not a studio-wide license.
Video Part 01 – Game Controller Product Shot
This video guides you through the creation of a final product shot from a
supplied model. The almost stark white on white scene makes every tweak and
nuance of the final "beauty pass" image highly visible. The approach in this
video is to simulate (to some extent) studio lighting techniques and to use
Photoshop to perform image post-processing on separate render outputs.
Topics covered include:
Lighting a scene with luminous polygons
Environment and Camera settings to "sell it"
Adding and duplicating materials
Instancing materials
Controlling highlights
Blurry reflections
Subsurface scattering
Visibility settings
Use of image maps in lieu of modeling
Subsurface scattering
Gamma correction
Ambient occlusion to add edge detail
Preview Renderer
Video Part 02 – Notebook Computer Product Shot
This second video in the series is a step-by-step creation of a final product
shot from a pre-built model of a notebook computer. Particularly challenging
areas are creating the brushed aluminum material, achieving a realistic screen
reflection, and making the keys "pop" in the scene.
Topics covered include:
Shadertree organization
Multiple environments
Control over reflection
Use of light probe
Leveraging render outputs in Photoshop (e.g. colorization)
Global illumination
Anti-aliasing settings
ShadowCatcher to capture ground shadows
Adding directional lights
Render region
Noise elimination via render settings
Gamma control
Video Part 03 – Riverbed Nature Scene
This final video in the series has as its subject a natural, organic setting.
The scene is depicted at early morning, with nearly still water running down the
stream and a colored mist rising from the wet ground. Scene complexity is
radically increased at render time via the extensive use of modo Replicators for
rocks and leaves.
Topics covered include:
Physically-based sunlight as environment
Shadow parameter adjustment
Boundary box mode to maintain interactivity
Group and Layer masks
Extensive use of image maps across scene with tiling
Creating water
Using Gradients and Weight maps to drive where rocks are replicated on streambed
Achieving mossy look on rocks
Stencil maps
Subsurface scattering
Gamma correction
Instance Replicators
Mist effect via Volumetric lighting

Are They Hiring?
There are jobs for managers and administrators, purchasing officers, and HR.
Lots of them.
No Staff Nurse posts are being advertised.
They are advertising for more "apprentices" and aiming the adverts at teenagers.
It still makes me laugh when people say that the University education of Nursing is what has destroyed Nursing care.
You idiot.
If we actually had university educated nurses staffing the wards I would agree with you. But the university educated nurses are stacking shelves at Asda while they try to find a job at the bedside. Even if they only want to do noctoring and managerial stuff they cannot even dream of it, if they do not have years of experience as a bedside nurse first.
The vast majority of staff on the wards at any given time these days are untrained, uneducated but mostly nice if a little dippy carers who have never been to university and do not want to become Nurses. It is getting to the point where we rarely have more than 1 RN per shift. The Nurses are an aging workforce. Most of the time that one nurse per shift is someone who trained back in the "good old days". The majority of NHS staff who are actually qualified nurses trained pre project 2000. Carers cannot help with drugs, treatments, orders, information organisation and action etc etc. The lone nurse carries that on her own. There are more drugs that need to be prepared and given than you can possibly, physically give. That's the case even with the threat of getting sacked for a med error and getting struck off as a nurse at the forefront of your thoughts. Even if your stomach is doing flip flops, due to fear that you are going to kill someone due to medication problesm, you still cannot do it.
In Victoria, Australia and California, USA the hospitals must staff their wards with degree nurses so well that no degree nurse is to have any more than 5 patients at a time. This is law. The hospitals tried to resist these laws but patients were dying. The law went into effect around the year 2001. If one of her 5 patients gets unwell, she gets another real nurse to help out with her other 4. In the UK I start my shift with more patients than I can handle, then I get more and I have so many constant and unrelenting interruptions that I cannot accomplish a thing. The only way to survive, and ensure my patients survive is to stay focused. This makes me look hard---as if I am lacking in compassion.
The degree RN in California has a small number of patients which allows her to do everything for them. Care assistants are few and far between. This is what they have over there, rather than untrained kids running around and one real Nurse trying to do it all for 30 patients like we have in the UK. On a 30 bed ward in California you would have 7 real Nurses at least (One in Charge), maybe one care assistant who is merely helping out rather than taking charge of the basic care, admin staff to answer the phone, domestics, dietary staff for a shift.. In the UK you will have one real Nurse and 3 untrained kids on a 30 bed ward per shift and that is all. This is getting to be the norm.
You won't hear of any patients getting starved, neglected, and left in their own filth in Victoria or California. And their staff nurses are ALL degree nurses.
You think it costs too much to pay all that well educated staff? Wrong again, they actually have lowered their costs by improving patient outcomes as a result of having strict, legistlated nurse patient ratios. If hospitals weren't so busy fucking around with government initiatives and interference this stuff would probably be automatic.
The second link is fabulous. The hospitals would not be able to include care assistants and non direct care providing nurses in their ratio declarations.

I was at a 'hospital at night' meeting today where the night nurse practitioner and the night matron were laughing at the silly little ward nurses who thought they had too many patients and not enough staff - apparently it was so much worse in their day and the ward nurses should just pull their socks up and stop complaining (note that none of these nurses now worked on the wards).
The parallels between nursing and medicine are so striking it isn't funny. - 6 March 2010 15:15

Lord that makes me cross. I spend my life trying to get more staff for the wards, God help me if I ever turn into them.

It doesn't surprise me at all. They think it is funny.
They forget that when they were on the wards there was less throughput, patients were not as sick, frail, and complicated. The nursing students were legally allowed to do more, mistakes were swept under the carpet.
They had more support in the form of hospital social workers who did the job rather than community social workers who dump on the ward nurse. They had visible matrons who supported the staff, ran the wards, and saw the patients.
There were more doctors and they were there more.
They were protected from constant interruptions.
They had a higher ratio of trained (RN's and EN's) to untrained staff.
Why don't you show them this blog anonymous? - 7 March 2010 00:08
I was trained in the the good old days Anne. And yes, things were different then. As you say, more qualified staff and more support, but I would argue that "mistakes were swept under the carpet." What do you base this on?
In is interesting that you feel patients were not as "sick, frail or complicated" then. How come?
I was a science graduate, but after two years in the research field, decided that I would do what I really always had wanted to do - become a nurse.
Of course, as I was not a graduate nurse, I decided after qualifying to leave my brain on hold. Since then, I have not taken on board any new procedures - refuse to do them! Novel meds after that time - refuse to dispense them! The list is endless. I prefer to squark on about the good old days.
Get real Anne and stop attacking your colleagues!
Nevertheless, I do enjoy your blog, for in the most part, you report as is. - 7 March 2010 09:24
- Dino-nurse said...
Staffing levels on general wards were far better 30 years ago. Fact. Students were apprentices. I can remember doing drug rounds with another student, putting up drips, doing the paperwork and even being the teamlead for a shift- all as a student. Like most, my first ward as a staff nurse was the last ward I had worked on as a senior student, hence not too big a culture shock. Yes the responsibility was hard to get used to but at least I felt at home. Now whenever I attend directorate meetings I have to gag myself. Our matron is pretty good the sticks up for the unit. Same goes for the ED matron. Unfortunately the others are a waste of space. Any hint that staffing is a problem is glossed over with glib comments about lack of resources and targets being the most important things. Most meetings are merely there to introduce the latest batch of pointless audits. Most of the surgical consultants no longer even turn up.
- 7 March 2010 12:03
I see Iain Dale posted a letter to a MP today about a generic ward problem andd nothing like as horrific as your 12 patients to 1 RN story earlier.
Perhaps, if you get time, head on over explain in a post. TBH if more RN people were willing to speak out on larger media sources (guest blog on larger readerships or even comment on these issues on those blogs the we might graually start to see some better awarenes perpetuated via the MSM as its becoming increasingly obviouss that the MSM no longer generat their own content and trawl for stories off blogs.)
The problem, of course, that all blogging done about life at the coal face on public services are done by people who a: don't want too much attention and B: are constanly on the job and just don't have time to surf and discuss on other forums/blogs.
But Dale's post along with other articles you mentioned before are starting to point to 'near truths' - 12 March 2010 01:12
- DespairingLiberal said...
Toby, I think Iain Dale is doing what he so often does, eg, pick on one rather narrow aspect of the problems that the NHS is having as part of an ongoing anti-public healthcare campaign that he and his fellow travellers of the New Right so ardently follow - their goal is complete privatisation and removal of healthcare from the majority.
Nurse Anne, I am glad to see your blog, very informative and revealing. - 12 March 2010 04:59
- pj said...
That incident does sound pretty bad but I was much amused by this line:
"Between my wife and I we survived the week but it certainly was not without incident! I have total admiration for many of the staff but there are fundamental issues that need to be addressed and in my view a starting point would be to listen to the Matrons etc who I am sure can see ways for improvement and who are doing their best with the resources provided."
Yeah right, the Matrons, they're clearly the ones who know how to sort everything out - all that time they spend at the coalface. - 14 March 2010 05:43

Media War: Building Strategic Forces Against MSM Submitted by lizsavage on Sat, 03/24/2012 - 4:44pm In a couple of weeks our 6 month anniversary is coming up. People still seem to be thinking Occupy is not doing anything. Why is this? Because we do not control the corporate media. We depend on citizen journalists for news. This works great for those of us in the know, well for the most part, but it does nothing for the rest of the audience we are trying to reach. I have been thinking a lot lately about how to reach more people. We need to use their tactics against them. One of the issues is we just cannot compete on the monetary scale that big business does. Taking out commercial ads during prime time TV is extremely expensive, as are full page ads in widely distributed publications. So how do we overcome this?

The areas around Peachtree City were inhabited by Native Americans from the Woodland period more than 12,000 years ago. The first permanent settlement and original inhabitants of Fayette County came to the city in the late 1700s. One of the earliest settlers, William McIntosh Jr., became a chief of the Lower Creek Indian tribes and believed that white settlers and Native Americans could live in peace.
Today, the city remains one of largest communities in The Peach State with one of the lowest costs of living and little crime. Because Peachtree City is a great starting point for many attractions in the Atlanta area, including the Georgia Dome and the city's zoo, this area attracts many visitors and future residents alike.
Peachtree City Attractions and Special Events
One of the events that the community takes pride in is the Great Georgia Air Show every fall. An exciting gathering conducted by the Commemorative Dixie Wing, the show features the best in historic military aircraft.
Another popular option for families is the Line Creek Nature Area. Complete with hiking trails, swimming and bird watching, this is a great place to get in touch with the adventurer in you. There are also plenty of birds, reptiles and other wildlife for adults and children to discover.

Mass. company to build solar array in Vt. townFebruary 02,2013CHARLOTTE- A Massachusetts company has received approval to build a solar array on a field in the Vermont town of Charlotte.
The Vermont Public Service Board recently approved the request by Charlotte Solar.
The Burlington Free Press reports (http://bfpne.ws/11cIBYk) the project, which was fought by neighbors, will occupy about 12.6 acres with 26 rows of solar panels. The panels will be about 10 feet high.
Bill Ellis, an attorney representing the neighbors, indicated then that it seemed the project was "predestined to be approved from the get-go."
Public Service Board Hearing Officer Jake Marren found that the project was consistent with the town plan.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER Vermonts senior U.S. Full StoryCOLCHESTER — Two year after Lake Champlain flooding destroyed part of it, the Colchester...

Rated 5 out of 5 Best Swaddle Blankets!!
I was given these as a gift before my son was born and I'm so grateful to have received them! We used these to swaddle him for naps and bedtime until he was 5 months old. These blankets were a lifesaver for us. Without them, he wouldn't sleep through the night. Our son was born in mid-July and we live in So.Cal. They worked perfectly in the hot summer months because they are 100% cotton and breath very well. He still sleeps with them and he's almost 2 years old now. I just bought a girly pack of these for his little sister who is due in May of this year.

Rated 5 out of 5 by LMarie Best blanket for all seasons
My son has loved these blankets from birth! They were the best swaddle blankets we had (and we had many) because they provided a stretchy but firm swaddle, that still kept him cool. The material breathes so nicely that I didn't have a sweaty baby on my hands. As he's grown, the blankets are perfect for snuggling, laying on the floor for tummy time, the stroller...you name it, these blankets have been there and done that! And the set of four is perfect because you'll always have one on hand when the others are in the wash.

I love these blankets. They are the best for swaddling. They are breathable for warm days, but warm for cold ones. I buy these blankets for every single one of my pregnant friends now. Litterally. I have a stock in my closet for the next friend that announces they're expecting! Get some. You won't regret it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by eeshie DON'T KNOW WHAT I WOULD DO WITHOUT THESE!
If I could give these more stars, I would. Yes, they are pricey. But I can honestly say that I don't know what we would do without them. We have several sets of them because my baby does everything with these blankets and has since birth. First, they are fantastic for swaddling because they are so big. Also they breathe, which is key since no matter how young they are, they figure out how to get them around their heads when you turn your head for a minute. They're like little Houdini's! You can also use them as covers, ground covers, burp cloths, bibs, etc. But most importantly (for us), they comfort my baby - he likes to cuddle with them (and unfortunately suck on them at times) so I go through a couple a day and I wash them daily (which means each blanket is washed a couple times a week). They are still like new after over 10 months (and very soft). I cannot speak more highly of these. Absolutely worth it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Fiona wonderful and multi-purpose
This is a must-have! These muslin blankets are great for swaddling, especially as it gets warmer outside. But beyond that, they are perfect sunshades for over the stroller canopy, great nursing/bottle-feeding cover-ups and burp-cloths, and work anytime you need to put your little one down on a blanket on the floor or the ground. They wash up wonderfully too. For city-dwellers, it's great to have baby gear that serves more than one function and follows your kid through multiple stages.
March 19, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Cortney My favorite
I love these swaddles for so many reasons. First of all the fabric is really soft and breathable so your able to stretch it and wrap your baby really tight. I also love that they are so big so you can cover your car seat while walking in your stroller or in the car to protect from the sun. Aiden and Anais have the cutest prints and that is no exception to their swaddle blanket selection! Must buy for any new or expecting family.

Then in 2009 my university threw out a bunch of Dell Latitudes, which were either sold, gifted to family and friends, or in the case of the small underpowered one on the upper right, repurposed into an alarm clock:
Well, here's the first of this year's trash. Seven Dell OptiPlex GX260 towers.
They're the same as some of the towers I found intermittently last year (also sold or gifted to family). Only two have RAM and none of them have hard drives. I'm going to see if anybody I know needs one; if not I'll be putting them on Craigslist as-is to see if I can make some money off them. To Antony: I am neither rich nor high-class.

Remarks regarding ETS support.
Please, copy all "truck" files (PMG, PMD and PMC) into proper truck name files. e.g.
renault_magnum folder should contain renault_magnum.pmg instead of "truck.pmg" when importing.
Second, export to proper truck name file too. E.g. export to renault_magnum.pmg and then rename renault_magnum files (PMG, PMD, PMC) to truck.

It's not often that a golfer shoots an 11-under-par 60 but finishes his round with a tinge of disappointment.
But that fate befell Phil Mickelson, who saw his perfectly struck 25-foot birdie putt curl around the cup but not drop on the par-four ninth at the TPC at Scottsdale in Arizona.
It was his final hole of the first round of the Phoenix Open and had it gone down, the American superstar would have joined the elite club of five players who have broken 60 on the PGA Tour.
"To see that last putt lip out the way it did and not go in, it's crushing because you don't get that chance very often to shoot 59," he told the official PGA Tour website.
"He could not have hit a better putt," said his long-time caddie Jim Mackay.
"Disappointing for everyone to not see that one go in on the last," said one of Mickelson's playing partner's Rickie Fowler.
Mickelson, who achieved the same 11-under 60 score at the tournament in 2005, joins fellow Masters winner Zach Johnson in being the only two PGA Tour players to shot 60 or better more than once in their careers.
Read: Singh 'shocked' by drug claims
"I was ecstatic (in 2005), and I'm ecstatic to shoot 60 (today)," Mickelson said.
"But there's a big difference between 60 and 59. Not that big between 60 and 61, there really isn't. But there's a big barrier, a Berlin Wall barrier, between 59 and 60."
