The amount of creativity that Disney icons inspires in other people is something we really appreciate since our childhood love runs deep. The latest Disney artistic interpretation is the re-imagining of Disney villains as attractive as their counterparts whose lives they are trying to ruin. My personal favorite is Ursula who seems revamped as Christina Aguilera. Check them out.

Yes, you are adding lot of targets in a one call, actually there is a
check inside Lua 'LUAI_MAXCSTACK == 8000' to avoid consuming the stack,
and there is also another _global_ special argument 'max-newtargets',
wich can be used to limit the number of added targets to avoid memory
starvation, however this last one is subject of debate. I think an
argument like this can have its use case in this targets-sniffer script.
(remember 'max-newtargets' is a global one: for all the scripts).
We may have to change this back to the old method of adding one address at a
time. That would also make output of IP address easier since we could check
for duplicates before printing the addresses.
The script doesn't output the IP address for now (except with -d) but I'll
add that functionality once we decide how I should go about adding addresses
to newtargets.
Yes we must change it, and since the script can add lot of targets, and
since the pcap_receive() will yield, we can consider Lua coroutines [1].

VALPARAISO| The founder of Girls on the Run International will speak Friday at a special event at Valparaiso University.
Girls on the Run of Northwest Indiana and Gamma Phi Beta will welcome Molly Barker to the Neils Science Center, 1610 Campus Drive East on the campus of Valparaiso University. The evening begins at 6:30 p.m. and Barker will speak at 7:30. Open to the public, admission is $5 for adults and free for children.
"This is a very exciting time for Girls on the Run of Northwest Indiana, " Jill Schlueter-Kim, council director for GOTR of NWI, said. "We have grown so much in the past four years and Molly Barker was the inspiration for us to start all of this. She is a tremendous person and I can't wait to introduce her to the region."
Barker, a four-time Hawaii Ironman triathlete, launched Girls on the Run in 1996 in Charlotte, NC. Today, the 501c3 non-profit organization serves girls through more than 200 councils in the U.S. and Canada.
Girls on the Run of Northwest Indiana is a life-changing character development program for girls in grades 3 through 8 that is offered at more than 35 sites in Porter, Lake, LaPorte and Jasper counties.
Through exercise, positive reinforcement and encouraging role models, GOTR helps girls develop the confidence they need during critical preteen years. Led by trained coaches, the program combines training for a 3.1-mile running event with self-esteem enhancing workouts. The goal of the program is to encourage positive emotional, social, mental, spiritual and physical development.

Leak Against This War
After 17 months observing pacification efforts in Vietnam as a state department official, I laid eyes upon an unmistakable enemy for the first time on New Year's Day in 1967. I was walking point with three members of a company from the US army's 25th Division, moving through tall rice, the water over our ankles, when we heard firing close behind us. We spun around, ready to fire. I saw a boy of about 15, wearing nothing but ragged black shorts, crouching and firing an AK-47 at the troops behind us. I could see two others, heads just above the top of the rice, firing as well.
They had lain there, letting us four pass so as to get a better shot at the main body of troops. We couldn't fire at them, because we would have been firing into our own platoon. But a lot of its fire came back right at us. Dropping to the ground, I watched this kid firing away for 10 seconds, till he disappeared with his buddies into the rice. After a minute the platoon ceased fire in our direction and we got up and moved on.
About an hour later, the same thing happened again; this time I only saw a glimpse of a black jersey through the rice. I was very impressed, not only by their tactics but by their performance.
One thing was clear: these were local boys. They had the advantage of knowing every ditch and dyke, every tree and blade of rice and piece of cover, like it was their own backyard. Because it was their backyard. No doubt (I thought later) that was why they had the nerve to pop up in the midst of a reinforced battalion and fire away with American troops on all sides. They thought they were shooting at trespassers, occupiers, that they had a right to be there and we didn't. This would have been a good moment to ask myself if they were wrong, and if we had a good enough reason to be in their backyard to be fired at.
Later that afternoon, I turned to the radio man, a wiry African American kid who looked too thin to be lugging his 75lb radio, and asked: "By any chance, do you ever feel like the redcoats?"
Without missing a beat he said, in a drawl: "I've been thinking that … all … day." You couldn't miss the comparison if you'd gone to grade school in America. Foreign troops far from home, wearing helmets and uniforms and carrying heavy equipment, getting shot at every half-hour by non-uniformed irregulars near their own homes, blending into the local population after each attack.
I can't help but remember that afternoon as I read about US and British patrols meeting rockets and mines without warning in the cities of Iraq. As we faced ambush after ambush in the countryside, we passed villagers who could have told us we were about to be attacked. Why didn't they? First, there was a good chance their friends and family members were the ones doing the attacking. Second, we were widely seen by the local population not as allies or protectors–as we preferred to imagine–but as foreign occupiers. Helping us would have been seen as collaboration, unpatriotic. Third, they knew that to collaborate was to be in danger from the resistance, and that the foreigners' ability to protect them was negligible.
There could not be a more exact parallel between this situation and Iraq. Our troops in Iraq keep walking into attacks in the course of patrols apparently designed to provide "security" for civilians who, mysteriously, do not appear the slightest bit inclined to warn us of these attacks. This situation–as in Vietnam–is a harbinger of endless bloodletting. I believe American and British soldiers will be dying, and killing, in that country as long as they remain there.
As more and more US and British families lose loved ones in Iraq–killed while ostensibly protecting a population that does not appear to want them there–they will begin to ask: "How did we get into this mess, and why are we still in it?" And the answers they find will be disturbingly similar to those the American public found for Vietnam.
I served three US presidents–Kennedy, Johnson and Nixon–who lied repeatedly and blatantly about our reasons for entering Vietnam, and the risks in our staying there. For the past year, I have found myself in the horrifying position of watching history repeat itself. I believe that George Bush and Tony Blair lied–and continue to lie–as blatantly about their reasons for entering Iraq and the prospects for the invasion and occupation as the presidents I served did about Vietnam.
By the time I released to the press in 1971 what became known as the Pentagon Papers–7,000 pages of top-secret documents demonstrating that virtually everything four American presidents had told the public about our involvement in Vietnam was false–I had known that pattern as an insider for years, and I knew that a fifth president, Richard Nixon, was following in their footsteps. In the fall of 2002, I hoped that officials in Washington and London who knew that our countries were being lied into an illegal, bloody war and occupation would consider doing what I wish I had done in 1964 or 1965, years before I did, before the bombs started to fall: expose these lies, with documents.
I can only admire the more timely, courageous action of Katherine Gun, the GCHQ translator who risked her career and freedom to expose an illegal plan to win official and public support for an illegal war, before that war had started. Her revelation of a classified document urging British intelligence to help the US bug the phones of all the members of the UN security council to manipulate their votes on the war may have been critical in denying the invasion a false cloak of legitimacy. That did not prevent the aggression, but it was reasonable for her to hope that her country would not choose to act as an outlaw, thereby saving lives. She did what she could, in time for it to make a difference, as indeed others should have done, and still can.
I have no doubt that there are thousands of pages of documents in safes in London and Washington right now–the Pentagon Papers of Iraq–whose unauthorised revelation would drastically alter the public discourse on whether we should continue sending our children to die in Iraq. That's clear from what has already come out through unauthorised disclosures from many anonymous sources and from officials and former officials such as David Kelly and US ambassador Joseph Wilson, who revealed the falsity of reports that Iraq had pursued uranium from Niger, which President Bush none the less cited as endorsed by British intelligence in his state of the union address before the war. Both Downing Street and the White House organised covert pressure to punish these leakers and to deter others, in Dr Kelly's case with tragic results.
Those who reveal documents on the scale necessary to return foreign policy to democratic control risk prosecution and prison sentences, as Katherine Gun is now facing. I faced 12 felony counts and a possible sentence of 115 years; the charges were dismissed when it was discovered that White House actions aimed at stopping further revelations of administration lying had included criminal actions against me.
Exposing governmental lies carries a heavy personal risk, even in our democracies. But that risk can be worthwhile when a war's-worth of lives is at stake.

Matt Lauer has softened his position about leaving "Today" in December at the end of his contract -- that is, if NBC antes up a record amount of money.
Sources connected to NBC tell TMZ ... Lauer was done with "Today" and wanted out -- but the word at the network is he will now re-sign if NBC ponies up way more than the $17 mil he's currently making.
We're told negotiations are now ongoing -- but if NBC agrees ... Lauer could score as much as $30 MILLION a year.
As for why the change of heart -- there are two schools of thought according to network sources. Some say Lauer changed his mind when network execs made it clear they were extremely interested in tapping Ryan Seacrest as Matt's replacement -- in other words, he got a little jealous.
But there's another school of thought -- that Lauer has wanted to re-sign all along and just played the "I'm leaving" card to score a bigger pay day.
As for whether Lauer is worth $30 mil ... to put it in context, "Today" makes roughly $450 million a year for the network ... more than any other show on NBC.
So we gotta ask ...
Why doesn't Obama say something about this amount of $ to Matt Lauer!! Oh that's right, Matt's a LIBERAL!!
Awfully arrogant there Lauer! Don't you realize your gray, balding arse can easily be replaced? Your time is up!
These people get paid way too much money. He definitely doesn't deserve $30 million. That is ridiculous. He should be happy he has a job. So many people are without work and here he and so many other celebrities and athletes complain they get to little. Poor Babies. Why don't they live like middle class do and see how much they would appreciate what they get. I wish my husband would make even a 10th of what they all get. Very sad and greedy people. Good riddance to Matt Laurer and his kind.
I've never really watched Matt on anything. But, from his facial expression on here, he looks like one of those guys that has an opinion of himself, that no one else shares with him. 30 Million is just crazy. Ask the President of our country how much he makes a year. Trust me there's no comparison. Who does this guy think he is? He has alot of nerve making fun of Republicans from what I hear.
fire his ass
that show is so stale. nbc is the channel in our town, but i can hardly watch it with the cast they have now. it would be refreshing to have new faces on that show.
Hair Plugs are expensive. so.....
Please...they should be paying him $30M to "leave"!...what's he gonna do...become a news anchor at CBS?...yeah right...we all know that Today Show hosts are overrated...Don't we Katie Couric?
Is he helping to generate that back in revenue or advertisements is my question? Value add begets high salary.
Matt Lauer is a tool. Remember when he scored an interview with Robert Shapiro and the segment turned out to be nothing but an ad for Legal Zoom? That was one of the best trolls I've ever seen on TV!
Please let Matt go!!Bring in someone cool and fun! Ryan Seacrest, Mario Lopez, Andy Cohen... Matt is washed up..over it!
Really its time to cut him loose, all he does is get up early in the morning, a limo picks him up, he sits in the make up chair demanding breakfast and starbucks, reads some words on a paper, takes his limo back home to nap or sail on a boat. Ugghhh!! Go please....
OMG how big is that ego of his? I don't think sports stars are worth what they get paid, let alone a show anchor!! Come on you guys, get down in the trenches with us and see how you like minimum wage!!
Wonder if the Occupy folks will scream and squawk about this? Probably not - they only whine about Wall Street types. The liberal left can make as much as they want.
I vote George Lopez, hilarious and a doll!! Shake that place up.....dulll

Corn Cakes with Walnuts
- Yield 4 servings
- Prep 15 mins
- Cook 10 mins
Walnuts and corn kernels quickly processes with yogurt and egg for this corm cake that a bit different from the rest.
- 1-1/2 cup frozen corn kernels, thawed
- 1/2 cup low-cholesterol egg substitute
- 1/3 cup nonfat yogurt
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup chopped California walnuts
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- -- Cooking spray
- -- Fat-free sour cream, if desired
- -- Salsa, if desired
- Set aside ½ cup of the corn kernels. In a food processor or blender, combine the remaining 1 cup corn kernels with the egg substitute, yogurt, flour, walnuts, baking powder, baking soda, salt and pepper. Process for 30-60 seconds, until the batter is blended and smooth, stopping once or twice to scrape down the sides of the container.
- Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl and stir in the reserved corn. Spray a large skillet, preferable nonstick, with no-stick cooking spray and place over medium heat. When the skillet is hot (the batter should sizzle quietly as it hits the pan), make corncakes, cooking them just like pancakes and using about ¼ cup of batter per cake.
- Cook 2-3 minutes on the first side, until tiny bubbles appear around the edges, then turn carefully and cook about 2 minutes on the other side, until golden.
- If necessary, spray the skillet with additional no stick cooking spray for cooking the next batch. Accompany the corncakes with salsa and fat-free sour cream, if desired.

It appears that the rumors that Troy Polamalu might be out for the year could be correct. In speaking with reporters earlier this week, he confirmed that his target return date is the Steelers final game against Miami, although he said he hoped he might be back soon.
Either way, Polamalu will not play this week against Green Bay.
Last week conflicting press reports either had Poalmalu on the verge of returning or perhaps out for the year.
The Steelers beleaguered offensive line got more bad news this week, as Mike Tomlin also ruled Chris Kemoatu out for the Green Bay game. Ramon Foster will start in his place.
But, in perhaps might be a piece of good news, Post-Gazette correspondent Ed Bouchette informed during his weekly chat that Isaac "Red Zone" Redman returned to the Steelers practice squad. Redman had been cut prior to the Raiders game to make room for Justin Vincent.

Fashion chain AllSaints is on the brink of agreeing a last-minute rescue plan that should save the retailer from collapse. Private equity group Lion Capital is believed to have done a deal which will give it 75% of the 100-outlet chain. US investor Goode Partners and AllSaints chairman Kevin Stanford will own the balance. AllSaints was put up for sale by administrators to Kaupthing and Glitnir, the collapsed Icelandic banks that owned a stake in the business. The Lion bid is understood to be worth £100m, with £20m going to the bank administrators. AllSaints has more than £50m of debt. Lion has also backed lingerie chain La Senza and US fashion brand American Apparel - which has its own financial problems.

CHARLESTON (AP) — A federal judge is directing a lawsuit challenging West Virginia municipal gun control laws to state court.
U.S. District Judge John Copenhaver also dismissed a dozen counts against the city of Charleston from the case brought by the West Virginia Citizens Defense League.
The group and individual gun rights advocates sued Charleston, Dunbar and South Charleston last year. The lawsuit alleges various firearms ordinances are unconstitutional.
Each city bars weapons from property it owns. The lawsuit also targets Charleston's handgun purchase limit and waiting period ordinances.
Copenhaver's Sept. 20 ruling concluded that a state court should hear the case first. A federal judge in Martinsburg ruled similarly last year, in a lawsuit filed against that city by the Citizens Defense League.

At the farmers' market, look for deep red late-summer raspberries, artisanal ricotta cheese (if available), and pistachios. For the silkiest texture, use a ricotta that contains no gums, pectin, or other stabilizers. (Standard grocery-store ricotta isn't as smooth, but still tastes good.)
Sunset SEPTEMBER 2010
1. Toss berries with sugar and brandy in a bowl, mixing gently. Let stand at room temperature, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves and berries render some juice, about 1 hour.
2. Purée ricotta, honey, and vanilla in a food processor until very smooth. Transfer to a bowl; stir in chocolate and pistachios.
3. Whip cream to firm peaks. Gently fold into ricotta mixture.
4. Divide berries and their juices among 4 glasses. Top each with ricotta mixture. With a vegetable peeler, shave a little more chocolate over each.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Cellulose acetate is the acetate ester of cellulose. It was first prepared in 1865. Cellulose acetate is used as a film base in photography, as a component in some coatings, and as a frame material for eyeglasses;[1] it is also used as a synthetic fiber in the manufacture of cigarette filters and playing cards.
Paul Schützenberger discovered that cellulose could react with acetic anhydride to form cellulose acetate in 1865. The use of chloroform to make it soluble was expensive, but in 1904 George Miles, an American chemist,[2] discovered that hydrolyzed cellulose acetate is soluble in other solvents, such as acetone. The German chemist Eduard Schweizer discovered that tetraaminecopper dihydroxide could dissolve cellulose.[3]
Acetate was first introduced in 1904, when Camille Dreyfus and his younger brother Henri did chemical research and development in a shed in their father's garden in Basel, Switzerland. Since their father was involved with a chemical factory, his influence was probably a factor in their choice of careers. And since Basel was a center of the dyestuffs industry, it was natural that their first achievement should be the development of synthetic indigo dyes. In search of a field that offered great potential, they selected cellulose acetate products, including fibers for textile use.[4]
For five years, the Dreyfus brothers studied and experimented in a systematic manner in Switzerland and France. By 1910, they had perfected acetate lacquers and plastic film and opened a factory in Basel capable of producing about three tons a day. This was largely sold to the celluloid industry in France and Germany, and to Pathe Fréres in Paris for non-flammable motion picture film base. A small but constantly growing amount of acetate lacquer, called "dope", was sold to the expanding aircraft industry to coat the fabric covering wings and fuselage.[4]
By 1913, after some twenty-odd thousand separate experiments, the brothers produced excellent laboratory samples of acetate continuous filament yarn. In 1918 they founded the American Cellulose & Chemical Manufacturing Company in New York.
The outbreak of World War I postponed development of successful commercial production until 1921. The war necessitated rapid expansion of the Basel factory: its trade with Germany was stopped and it exclusively supplied the Allied governments with acetate dope for military aircraft.[4] In 1927 the American Cellulose & Chemical Manufacturing Company name was changed to the Celanese Corporation of America.[5]
In 1849 Mazzucchelli Spa. opened in north of Italy in Castiglione Olona near Varese, Como and Milan. The founder, Santino Mazzucchelli, and his son Pompeo begin working Cellulose nitrate sheets in the late 1800. The idea was to transform the sheets into combs, brushes, buttons and hair ornaments. These entrepreneurs were able to establish a company that would influence the development of bioplastic material world wide until today. Mazzucchelli grew to become the largest producer of Celluloid Acetate sheets and Cellulose Nitrate sheets worldwide. Today this warm and aesthetically pleasing material is used mostly for making the frames for eyeglasses, followed by hair ornaments, jewellery, stationary and other accessories. Mazzucchelli 1849 Spa. is one of the few family companies that has lasted for 6 generations. The family is still involved in the business and it continues to influence the bioplastic manufacturing development in Europe, USA and Asia. Through the years many tests were done and many patterns were created with acetate sheets, the most famous of which is the Tortoise shell look, made exclusively by Mazzucchelli.
In November 1914, the British Government invited Dr. Camille Dreyfus to come to England to manufacture acetate dope. The "British Cellulose and Chemical Manufacturing Co" was set up. At the end of World War I, the British Government canceled all contracts and the company changed to produce acetate fibers. In 1918 the company name was changed to British Celanese Ltd.
In 1917, the War Department of the United States Government invited Dr. Dreyfus to establish a similar factory in the US after their entry into war. After about six weeks, a contract was negotiated for sale of acetate "dope" to the War Department and a plant site was sought. Dr. Dreyfus and his associates started construction of the American company at Cumberland, Maryland in 1918, but the war was over before the plant could be completed. The business with the Government was completed in due time, construction of the plant continued, the early nucleus of the management began to assemble, and the organization in England completed development of the first commercially successful acetate textile yarn. In England, in 1912, the British company produced the first commercial cellulose acetate yarn. The yarn was sold primarily for crocheting, trimming, and effect threads and for popular-priced linings.[4]
The first yarn spun in America was on Christmas Day, 1924, at the Cumberland, Maryland Plant. The first yarn was of fair quality, but sales resistance was heavy, and silk associates worked zealously to discredit acetate and discourage its use. Acetate became an enormous success as a fiber for moiré because its thermoplastic quality made the moiré design absolutely permanent. The same characteristic also made permanent pleating a commercial fact for the first time, and gave great style impetus to the whole dress industry.[4]
This was a genuine contribution. The mixing of silk and acetate in fabrics was accomplished at the beginning and almost at once cotton was also blended, thus making possible low-cost fabrics by means of a fiber which then was cheaper than silk or acetate. Today, acetate is blended with silk, cotton, wool, nylon, etc. to give to fabrics an excellent wrinkle recovery, good left, handle, draping quality, quick drying, proper dimensional stability, cross-dye pattern potential, at a very competitive price.[4]
Acetate and triacetate are mistakenly referred to as the same fiber; although they are similar, their chemical compositions and formulae differ. Triacetate is known as a generic description or primary acetate containing no hydroxyl group. Acetate fiber is known as modified or secondary acetate having two or more hydroxyl groups. Triacetate fibers, although no longer produced in the United States, contain a higher ratio of acetate-to-cellulose than do acetate fibers[1]
Cellulose acetate film was introduced in 1934 as a replacement for the cellulose nitrate film stock that had previously been standard. When exposed to heat, moisture or acids in the film base begin to deteriorate to an unusable state, releasing acetic acid with a characteristic vinegary smell, causing the process to be known as "vinegar syndrome." Acetate film stock is still used in some applications, such as camera negative for motion pictures. Since the 1980s, polyester film stock (sometimes referred to under Kodak's trade name "ESTAR Base") has become more commonplace, particularly for archival applications. Acetate film was also used as the base for magnetic tape, prior to the advent of polyester film.
Cellulose acetate magnetic tape was introduced by IBM in 1952 for use on their IBM 726 tape drive in the IBM 701 computer. It was much lighter and easier to handle than the metal tape introduced by UNIVAC in 1951 for use on their UNISERVO tape drive in the UNIVAC I computer. In 1956 cellulose acetate magnetic tape was replaced by the more stable PET film magnetic tape for use on their IBM 727 tape drive.
Cellulose acetate fiber is one of the earliest synthetic fibers and is based on cotton or tree pulp cellulose ("biopolymers"). These "cellulosic fibers" have been replaced in many applications by cheaper petro-based fibers (nylon and polyester) in recent decades.[6]
Trade names for acetate include Acele, Avisco, Celanese, Chromspun and Estron.[7]
Acetate shares many similarities with rayon, and both were formally considered as the same textile. Acetate differs from rayon in the employment of acetic acid in production. The two fabric are now required to be listed distinctly on garment labels. [8]
Rayon resists heat while acetate is prone to melting. Acetate must be laundered with care either by hand-washing or dry cleaning. Acetate garments will disintegrate when heated in a tumble dryer.[9][10]
The fabric's breathable nature suits it for use as a lining. Acetate fabric is used frequently in wedding gowns and other bridal attire. [11] It's lustrous sheen and smooth, satiny texture make it a good synthetic alternative to silk.[9]
Acetate is a very valuable manufactured fiber that is low in cost and has good draping qualities. Acetate is used in fabrics such as satins, brocades, and taffetas to accentuate luster, body, drape and beauty.
The Federal Trade Commission definition for acetate fiber is "A manufactured fiber in which the fiber-forming substance is cellulose acetate. Where not less than 92 percent of the hydroxyl groups are acetylated, the term triacetate may be used as a generic description of the fiber."
Acetate is derived from cellulose by deconstructing wood pulp into a purified fluffy white cellulose. In order to get a good product special qualities of pulps - dissolving pulps - are used. A common problem with these is that the reactivity of the cellulose is uneven, and the quality of the cellulose acetate will sometimes be impacted. The cellulose is then reacted with acetic acid and acetic anhydride in the presence of sulfuric acid. It is then put through a controlled, partial hydrolysis to remove the sulfate and a sufficient number of acetate groups to give the product the desired properties. The anhydroglucose unit is the fundamental repeating structure of cellulose and has three hydroxyl groups which can react to form acetate esters. The most common form of cellulose acetate fiber has an acetate group on approximately two of every three hydroxyls. This cellulose diacetate is known as secondary acetate, or simply as "acetate".
After it is formed, cellulose acetate is dissolved in acetone into a viscous resin for extrusion through spinnerets (which resemble a shower head). As the filaments emerge, the solvent is evaporated in warm air via dry spinning, producing fine cellulose acetate fibers.
First U.S. Commercial Acetate Fiber Production: 1924, Celanese Corporation
Current U.S. Acetate Fiber Producers: Celanese, Eastman Chemical Company
Cellulose acetate is marketed under various trade names, such as Tenite by the Eastman Chemical Company, zyl and zylonite,[1] Cellon[Note 1] and Rhodoid.[Note 2]

Look! Installing a New FLOR Area Rug
I am so excited to share my new FLOR rug with AT! I was an early adapter when it came to FLOR. After two moves, almost six years and a hot-tempered chihuahua puppy, my first FLOR purchase had seen better days. I'm sending our old, abused FLOR back to Interface to be recycled. After searching for a replacement area rug, we decided on FLOR again. It's inexpensive, easy to take care of and the company is environmentally progressive...
We chose FLOR's Fedora tile in Chartreuse. The felt-like surface is one of the softest, and the super-thin tile is made of 80% recycled material. An extremely low-pile in rug speak, it would be easy to keep clean with a canister vacuum. Fedora is sold by CB2 and it was easy to pick up twelve tiles at the Manhattan store. At only $7 a tile, Fedora is FLOR's least expensive tile!
After pulling up the old tiles, we cleaned and vacuumed the floor. Our rental's hardwood floors are seriously damaged and uneven, so we were instantly reminded of why we needed a rug...
When, laying out the tiles, I used the strips of hardwood as a guide to keep the rug straight.
FLOR has abandoned the original rubber-cement-like stickers that kept the carpet stuck to the ground. Now, the company uses these larger adhesive stickers to stick the carpet tiles to other carpet tiles, without damaging the floor. A welcome improvement.
The seams are nearly invisible.
I love our new FLOR!

Looks great!
But I'm curious to hear how your Fedora tiles hold up. I purchased the Oatmeal about 6 months ago and could not be more disappointed. Within 2-3 months my tiles began to pill like crazy and now they look awful. It's just me in my apartment too so they don't get heavy use. Has anyone else had similar issues?
I hope you have better luck Aaron!
Gina, good to know about the Fedora tiles. i was just going to place an order for them today. I did speak to someone at Flor yesterday & they said that they were having issues with the vendor that makes these tiles for them. Perhaps this is the issue?
Has anyone had any experience with the Solid Ground group? that was our 2nd choice...
I used fedora wall-to-wall in my entire basement (big family room and guest room) and it looks great. I did notice it started pilling, though, in the area where I exercise.
I'm hoping to order some of the "heavy traffic" stuff for stair treads.
Where are those cubes from?
We also used Fedora, and it was the worst waste of money. We did an 8x8 area, and it looked awful after the first week. The pilling is awful, and lord help you if you walk on it occasionally. We decided to buy a rug for that area, and although we were greatly disappointed with it, I did call Flor and ask for return boxes to recycle it (not to try to get a refund), and they guy said he would send them out, and they never came. That was our bad experience with Flor. As a side note, when they say not to be used on waxed hardwood, PLEASE be sure you don't have ANY wax (or any coating on it for that matter) on it. Those glue dots came up and pulled the varnish off with it.
Inexpensive??? I guess that's a matter of opinion but I did not think they were affordable.
NathanSE: the cubes were purchased many years ago at a Dune sale. They still sell them and they almost always have some available at their annual floor model sale.
1971MI: As I mentioned in my post, FLOR no longer uses the glue dots.
denver digs: under $100 for a nearly 5x8' area rug is a good deal.
i hope ours don't pill! It's in an area of the room where there is not a lot of foot traffic, so maybe they will be ok.
I purchased 4 boxes of FLOR tiles a couple months ago for a similar area rug. I was, and continue to be, horribly disappointed in them. They pilled, continuously look dingy and I'm having a terrible time with them pulling apart from even the lightest use. I hope this rug works well for you, but I'm, sadly, skeptical of FLOR now. And, it's too bad, because i was so excited about everything the company is about.
Also, did i understand that correct? you can contact FLOR directly and they'll send you boxes to return/recycle old tiles?
I have Fedora tiles under my desk in an area that sees a lot of rolling chair action. They have not started to pill at all. They do however attract every inch of cat hair within a two feet radius. I vaccuum regularly and they still look great. Totally worth it for the cost. And yes, they are incredibly cheap. I looked forever for rugs and this was the cheapest option I found short of buying a used one at a thirft store.
Ok, I'm going to out FLOR as well. I contacted FLOR a couple of days ago to ask if they ever donate remainders or rugs sent back for recycling to non profits. My son's public school needs a rug for one of their classes. The woman who answered the customer service line was borderline rude, answering every question I asked with, "We don't ever give the product away for free". While I do not necessarily expect them to donate their product, the response was pretty unpleasant. I was thinking that with their reputation of conscientiousness they would be a little more forthcoming, but evidently not.
For someone like me, with a Chihuahua that loves to tear up expensive rugs, these FLOR tiles are a godsend. I also like being able to have a rug that fits the exact area I need it to.
I have 2 Flor rugs that I received about 8 months ago. The dining room is Twiggy, which looks beautiful, but doesn't get much traffic and the family room is a combination of Solid Ground and Sprout. It has held up beautifully and gets quite a bit of traffic, especially from my cat. The cat is the main reason why I started to look at Flor rugs, because he will tear up anything with loops, but he hasn't managed to make a mark on the Flor rugs (and it's not for lack or trying). Like mattab said, it's a "godsend".
We had the FLOR "Toy Poodle" line in Citron, and got rid of it after about a year -- the tiles just looked so cheap and grungy and gross, no matter how often we washed them (which, given the number of tiles we had, was no easy task).
Maybe the darker colors are better?
I have Flor morning Coffee Latte. I love the tiles and after living with a few of them over a year I have 2 thoughts. First, if you own pets there is no better product. We have two ancient cats that never find the cat box, and an incontinent doggie. We have spent hundreds of dollars on rugs from Crate and Barrel, West Elm, and Lowes. All of the rugs were nice, but after a month or 2 with our animals they were done. After investing in Flor tiles the first thing we realized is if a pet has an accident you can pull up that tile, wash it right in the sink, let it dry and its good to go. No lingering pee in the backing or chemical spray fumes. But they are really expensive. The average tile cost 10 dollars. A 5x8 rug requires 17 tiles. Thatâs on average 170 dollars. And if you go with a higher quality tile, prices can get in to the 15-20 dollar range. In the end, the tiles are priceless worth ever hard earned penny, and I wish we had just went right to them, but Iâm a believer and would recommend them to all people that have pets or kids.
We just picked up 2 boxes of FLOR tiles from Target for the low low price of 40 bucks.... or $3 a tile!!!!
You don't have the same ability to chose, but in basic neutrals there's no reason not to pick them up!
Don't forget to check next time you are out!
I have dogs and teenagers and my foyer/hallway Fedora rug has held up well so far (4 months and counting)
I will definitely be buying more tiles from Flor.
I have had a 11.5x7 FLOR rug in Fedora in Oatmeal, Charcoal and Chartreuse for about 9 months. The rug attracts up a lot cats hair, but it is easily vacuumed off. I have already spilled a few things (tomato sauce and red wine) on the tiles, but I can easily pull it up and rinse it off in the sink and let it drip dry in the shower. So far this has been a great investment. Cleans easily and very affordable!
My question is: how plush and nice are they to barefeet? I have yucky berber in my apartment and would love something more soft and cushy to walk on....I'm assuming the more expensive ones might be more plush? And is it really true you can buy these at Target?!?!
I gotta know--where did you get that bookshelf thing behind the lamp? I love that!
I'm looking to reupholster a club chair and I love the fabric that you used on your chair in the photo. Any idea on the brand and name of the pattern? Thanks.
Geri: I wouldn't refer to Fedora as "plush" as it is very very thin. It is very very soft (and fuzzy) though.
donnafergie: The bookshelf/cabinet is BONDE from IKEA.
andrewg: the Recliner is from DWR and upholstered in a Maraham fabric in Morel. (they still sell the chair with this option)
I have Toy Poodle in black (which is actually a very dark muted brown) installed wall to wall and so far am very pleased. Its been in for about 6 months and I haven't had any pilling or other problems. I looked at the felt-y types (fedora, solid ground) when I was choosing but they looked like they would be dust magnets.
I do need to make some extra effort when vacuuming and use the attachment hose to clean out the bevel grooves between tiles.
On a side note, Flor is NOT cheap. On a per square foot basis, the good stuff is significantly more than comparable installed carpeting. And thats not counting the shipping charges which can add a considerable chunk of change. If you are looking to carpet and save money, price out carpeting at your local home improvement or flooring store and compare.
The only reason I went with Flor over installed carpeting is that my building keeps springing leaks. It was just way cheaper to clean/replace a couple of tiles than to keep replacing mildewing carpet and padding. If I hadn't had this problem, I would have gone with conventional carpet.

Definitely not easy to start from the very first. So, lets start from the few days back.
Decided to whatsapp somebody bcos apparently he just spilled my secret to his mom. In the end, I gave him mixed signals. Well, thats what Amirah told me. Haha. So thats bcos he said he cared. Not moved, but that layer of ice around my heart is starting to melt bit by bit. Not in love, but difinitely confused. Being 15 is seriously hard. Imagine once I hit 20++. Just imagine. Well, dont wanna imagine.
So, have been away from school quite a while and some ppl are just pissing me off. I ask help for school work or help to bring back some notes and in the end you should noe what are the replies I got. I mean I am not angry with those who I didnt ask for help the day before but the ones that I remind days before. Now, I seriously cannot do my work. Sigh.

The KNSN was designed with and provided with the most up-to-date international techniques in the field of seismography. It consists of eight permanent seismic field stations distributed all over Kuwait according to the tectonic setting of the State. Seven of these stations are short-period stations. The eighth station is a very broad-band station. Each station has mainly 3 parts. The first part is the observatory unit, which includes three seismometers (SS-1 Ranger seismometer) in the short period stations or one seismometer (Streckeisen STS-2 seismometer) in the very broad band station. Seismometers are placed on a solid, leveled surface in a 3 to 4 meter deep seismic vault (cylindrical room) to record the ground motion in three dimensions: one vertical direction and two horizontal directions (i.e., north-south and east-west).
The second part is the recording and digitizing unit to amplify, digitize and record the observed data. Refraction Technology 72A-07 data acquisition system (DAS) is used for recording and digitizing the observed signals. DAS has three channels 24-bit digitizer/recorder and internal RAM that provides a 512K buffer for data retention, allowing adequate storage for packets to be retransmitted. The third unit is the communication unit that includes transmitter (T45F-2), receiver (R45F) and antenna as a full duplex unit fixed on a communication tower erected at each station. The Monitron model T45F-2 is a narrow-band transmitter with frequencies selectable in the 381 - 391 MHz band. The radiated power is maximum 4 W. The Monitron model R45F is the matching receiver in the 381 - 391 MHz band. The antenna employed is Yagi Antenna with 12dB gain. The antenna is mounted vertically polarized to minimize interference. Accordingly, Kuwait National Seismic Network is a real-time telemetric full duplex seismic network. The stations are powered by batteries, which are charged through solar cells to supply continuous power. Siemens Pro4 JF solar electric module has 36 specially processed single crystal solar cells that are capable of producing 75 watts at over 4 amps. Two Solar Panels with two 220 Amp-hour batteries provide adequate power. There is a charge controller to prevent the batteries from being overcharged.
Each seismometer converts the earth's vibrations into an electrical potential that is proportional to the amplitude of these vibrations. The voltage is digitized in the field into a digital value with precise sampling signals by the DAS. The generated digits are assembled into 1024 bytes packets (encoded data) and are continuously sent through a full duplex modem board by radio communication to the recording/analysis center at KISR. When the event trigger actuates, a flag is sent with a data. The modem encoding is QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) which allows 9600 baud transmission. The full duplex modem participates in the error-detection and correction process and also the retraining process. This setup enables KNSN to record all local seismic events and most of regional and distant seismic events.
In addition to the permanent stations, there are 6 portable stations. Each portable station consists of an advanced 6 channel broad-band, high resolution recording/digitizing seismic system (Quanterra Q330), three seismometers (SS-1) and 3-components accelerometer (Episensor) to record the acceleration of the earth under earthquake effect. Each Quanterra Q330 includes 8Mb RAM, GPS receiver for Universal Time signals, power management, sensor command/control, and an advanced telemetry application for reliable data delivery. The recorded data are stored in an external storage unit called Quanterra Packet Baler (PB14F) that is connected directly to Q330 via IP network technology. PB14F is a modular, field-ready high-capacity recording system that stores up to 20 GB of ready-to-use data in internationally-standardized Federation of Digital Seismic Networks MSEED format. The data are retrieved from PB14F and Q330 by using portable computer that has special software for field stations operation. Portable stations are powered by batteries that are recharged by solar cells.
