Comments about On-Line Supersocke 100 4-Ply Walking Color:
OnLine's Supersocke yarns are among my favorite of the German brand sock yarns, though they frequently in my experience are spun in Turkey and sometimes Italy. IME the Turkish yarns can vary widely in texture. But this line is pleasing indeed.
I was surprised by how springy and soft this incarnation of Walking is. While working it up, I felt that it had more fluff and halo than I usually like. I feared the resulting socks would be "hairy." Instead they are amazingly lustrous and soft soft soft. I like them best for cabin slippers/clogs rather than boot socks, but that may be because I worked them a little looser. To force them into an Alpine boot I find the stitches gape, though they have always resnugged upon washing. (We line dry, never machine dry, our handmade socks even where the manufacturer suggests it.)
This Walking line has thicker solid color stripes separated by stripes of white with jacquard-type flecks. The thicker striping allows for wider-row repeats, which means that this yarn can give interesting striped effects in something other than socks, like children's or toddlers' vests, mittens, sweater fronts, etc. I also like these patterned yarns for knitted and crocheted blocks and other modular approaches.
soft and easy to work with yarn
Best Uses
Comments about On-Line Supersocke 100 4-Ply Walking Color:
I make women's and men's socks for sale. The softness is good for this purpose, but I will want to see results after washing as I thought there was a slight tendency to mat/shed as I was handling the product.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Beautiful and soft!
Best Uses
Comments about On-Line Supersocke 100 4-Ply Walking Color:
I recently knitted two pairs of adult socks with this beautiful self striping yarn. The medium womens pair left over enough to knit a pair of baby socks while the 100g skein was just the right amount for men's large socks. Both pairs washed up nice and soft and were a pleasure to knit.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
This makes an excellent sock
Best Uses
Comments about On-Line Supersocke 100 4-Ply Walking Color:
I love to knit socks with this yarn, There are no knots, slubs and it does not split. The design pattern is consistent for matching the 2nd sock.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
I would not buy this yarn again.

I made footies form this yarn for Christmas Gifts and I am not happy with the results. I bought four different colors and the weight of the yarn varied color by color from very thin (lace weight) to sort of ok. One color especially is quite harsh to the touch.

I have idea about Dispose and Finalize method in .Net as following. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Dispose : Implement IDisposable inferface and remove unused/unmanaged code in Dispose method. Developer needs to call it manually if they want immediate removal or GC will dispose the resources when it is invoked.
Finalize : When GC invoked it will free the unused managed code and if IDisposable is implemented then it will call Dispose method to free up the unmanaged resources(normally).
The question is: When we dispose the resources using Dispose method, memory will be freed immediately and compacted(as GC doing)?

FILM; Master of Motion and Emotion
By PHILLIP LOPATE
Published: June 20, 1999
WHATEVER the summer movies may bring, it is a safe bet that the most ravishing, romantic images onscreen this season will be at the Max Ophuls retrospective, starting on Friday and running through July 15 at the Film Society of Lincoln Center's Walter Reade Theater. This virtually complete selection of 21 Ophuls films, with many rarities and new prints, will be catnip for film buffs, who regard the divine Max as their patron saint -- perhaps because no other director in the history of movies wrung so much emotional resonance from cinematic technique. ''His camera could pass through walls,'' said Stanley Kubrick, referring to Ophuls's penchant for movement. The French New Wave, especially Francois Truffaut, regarded him as their auteur role model, because he had managed to impose a personal style in the face of producer pressures. A bon vivant who was subject to fits of depression, Ophuls dramatized the will to pleasure and its attendant humiliations.
But Ophuls also had his detractors, who saw him as a decorative stylist without substance. The fact that he made what might be called ''women's films'' held him back from being taken seriously during his lifetime. It was only after his death, in 1957, that he was canonized, though there is still debate whether to regard him as a ''beloved minor master'' (Richard Roud) or ''one of the greatest of film directors'' (David Thomson). The paradox of Max Ophuls is that he may have been both -- minor and great.
One is tempted to call Ophuls a Viennese master, since so many of his signature works are set in 1900 Vienna. Yet the facts are that he was a German who gravitated to France. Drawn imaginatively to the fin de siecle Vienna of Schnitzler, Freud and Hapsburg pomp, Ophuls recreated it on the sound stage as a closed society with recognizable types (army officer, artist, investor, beautiful young woman desired by all), locales (Opera, Prater park, train station) and moral quandaries (family pressure to marry, adultery, aristocratic code of honor, the duel.) Ophuls himself came from a more bourgeois, non-dueling background. He was born Max Oppenheimer in 1902; his German-Jewish family owned a department store, and in deference to their proprieties he changed his name when he decided to pursue acting. Short, not particularly handsome, with no acting talent, he quickly switched to direction. By age 23 he had directed hundreds of plays, operettas and radio shows, and worked at the Burgtheater in Vienna (the one year he lived in that city). There he also met and married the actress Hilde Wall. By 1930, recognized as a premiere theater director, he was lured into filmmaking.
The tragic love story ''Liebelei'' (1933), adapted from Schnitzler, gave Ophuls his first international success. In ''Liebelei'' a young opera singer and an officer of the dragoons fall in love, but past mistakes catch up with the officer: he is forced to fight a fatal duel with an ex-mistress's husband. This simple, delicate film is embellished with tender scenes of lovers riding through the snow, waltzing all night in a Viennese cafe. Courtship passages were an Ophuls specialty.
In the 1930's Ophuls left Nazi Germany to make movies in Italy, Holland and France. ''La Signora di Tutti'' (''Everybody's Woman''), shot in Italy in 1934, was a particularly sparkling, if mordant, tale of a reluctant femme fatale: a young woman whose beauty brings death and misery to everyone around her. She ends up a movie star. The shot of her rowing in a boat while her elderly married suitor drives along the riverbank in pursuit has a gliding liquidity, both pastoral and ominous. ''La Signora di Tutti'' also initiated the Ophuls tendency to tell a character's life story, ''Citizen Kane''-like, through a complex flashback structure.
Of the eight features he shot in France during this period, all have their charms, but the freshest is ''Divine'' (1935), from a Colette script about music-hall life. Ophuls loved to film the backstage milieu, the agitations of show people. The result was what Truffaut called ''a little masterpiece of verve, health and life with that Ophulsian fury that drives the camera up staircases, into the flies, in and out of the wings.''
In 1941, just managing to escape the Gestapo, he landed in Hollywood, along with many other European refugees, and cooled his heels for four years, waiting for someone to offer him work. He finally directed four pictures for small studios, including an under-rated 1949 gem, ''The Reckless Moment,'' with Joan Bennett and James Mason. Howard Koch, who wrote the screenplay for Ophuls's best American movie, ''Letter From an Unknown Woman,'' recalled: ''I remember my first impression of him as a baldish Peter Lorre, with the same heavy-lidded, wide-set eyes and the same impish sense of humor.'' Ophuls had transported to California his wife, Hilde, his son, Marcel (later to become an important documentary filmmaker) -- and his attractive young mistress. ''Since Americans are not adept at this sort of thing,'' wrote Koch, ''Max undertook to instruct me on some of the finer points. One of his rules that I recall is that cut flowers are properly sent to one's mistress as they are perishable, whereas a plant, being more durable and therefore more economical, is the correct choice for one's wife.''

I was going to make a cake and realized I only had 1 egg and I needed 3. I didn't want to go back to the store, so I ended here and it worked great. Thanks. The cake came out great.
What a time saver! I was baking to satisfy a dessert craving, and tried this instead of sending husband out to the store. I mixed the starch in with the dry ingredients, and the water in with the wet. Half an hour later we had dessert - and I couldn't tell the difference at all.

The Green Pharmacist
When you talk to a pharmacist in a drugstore, you can be pretty confident you're dealing with a professional who has taken rigorous courses on the medicines he or she sells. But when you're looking for herbal remedies, the situation's different. The clerk at the counter of a health food store is probably just as willing to give you advice. But many such employees know little about the uses -- and risks -- of the herbs they sell.
An informal WebMD survey of health store clerks found that their training ranged from a 12-week course to none at all. That's typical of those who sell herbs, says Mindy Green, a founder of the American Herbalists Guild.

By Jenn Sturiale "Oh -- I'm sorry, what did you say?" It happens to the best of us while engaged in a conversation (even an interesting one): We suddenly snap back to the present, then realize we have no idea what was just said. Our mind wandered away and went... where? Most likely it skipped off to the past or the future. It doesn't just happen during conversations. While watching a movie, we'll start compiling a mental grocery list. Or while walking the dog, we'll replay a conversation we had...
Read the Pay Attention: Be in the Now article > >
It's a problem because herbs, if used improperly, can be dangerous or even lethal. And guidance about what and what not to use can be hard to come by. Many labels on herbal products don't even specify the maladies for which they should be used. And commercially manufactured herbs are often sold mixed with other ingredients in concentrations that can vary widely from one product to another -- making it even more difficult to determine the right product for a given ailment.
So where can you get advice you can trust? The closest equivalents to pharmacists in the herb industry are professional herbalists who have spent years studying and using the plant products they prescribe. But while pharmacists and doctors must meet a uniform set of licensing requirements set by a governing board, no such governing body certifies herbalists. This means that checking the credentials of an herbalist may take a little digging, but it's important to do so.
To begin, ask if your herbalist belongs to the American Herbalists Guild. To become members, herbalists must submit three letters of reference from other professional herbalists, a description of their training, and an account of at least four years of experience working with medicinal herbs. (To obtain a list of herbalists accepted as members by the American Herbalists Guild, visit their web site at http://www.healthy.net/herbalists or call them at 435-722-8434.)

WEST POINT, N.Y.-- Keller Army Community Hospital a leader in Army Medicine honored patients during National Patient Recognition Month, with a special National Patient Recognition Day, Monday, Feb. 27.
With a theme of "We Are Patient Centered," Army Medicine is devoting the entire month of February to honoring more than 3.95 million eligible beneficiaries worldwide, including active duty service members, retirees, and their Family members.
According to Army Medical Command Health Policy and Services Clinical Services Division, in a typical day, the Army Medical Command serves patients through 41,986 clinic visits, 374 patient admissions, 26,600 dental procedures, 5,879 immunizations, 64 births, 12,494 radiology procedures, 54,048 outpatient pharmacy prescriptions and 50,420 laboratory procedures.
Here at Keller, we believe National Patient Recognition Month is a chance to examine and demonstrate our commitment to patient care, consumer advocacy, and patient-inspired best practices and outcomes.
"Most healthcare observances focus on healthcare personnel," said Col. Wanda Jenkins, deputy commander for nursing and health services. "National Patient Recognition Day is a chance to honor the patients we serve."
"I've been coming to Keller for over 10 years. The doctors here are great and you can tell they really care about their patients. I always receive the best of care," said Gloria Goda, Keller Army Community Hospital patient.
"Patient well being, loyalty, and satisfaction are continually cited as a top concern among healthcare providers," says Col. Beverly Land, Keller Army Community Hospital commander. "National Patient Recognition Day presents a golden opportunity for our management team, physicians, nurses, technologists, technicians, ancillary personnel, and volunteers to reflect on how their attitude and actions affect the well-being and satisfaction of the patients they serve."
"We need to demonstrate that patient needs go beyond the technical aspects of medical care to include empathy, exactness, and encouragement," said Deputy Commander for Clinical Services, Col. Michael Doyle.
It's because of our patient care that Keller earned an overall patient satisfaction rating of 95 percent for January; it's highest on record, according to the monthly Department of Defense and Army surgeon general's Army Provider Level Satisfaction Survey (APLSS).
APLSS surveys are mailed to randomly selected patients approximately one to two weeks after their visit. Patients are asked to assess satisfaction with the provider and services at Keller and their level of overall satisfaction with the entire visit, from making the appointment to the delivery of care.
"Gaining patients' trust is not always an easy thing to do; however, we plan to continue providing excellent customer service and meeting or exceeding Army Medicine's recommended goal of 95 percent in the months to come," said Deputy Commander for Administration Lt. Col. Andrew Lankowicz

Hey, I'm Deb!
Arts and nonprofit professional who is a community advocate and friendly host to her visitors after years of living on the East Coast in New York, Connecticut, Arizona and now home in Missouri. Private individual who prefers the quiet of the country to the hustle and bustle of the city life now. What are five things I could not live without?
1) My traveling companions and good friends, my pups Lulu and Pete
2) My great human friends and family all over the world and here in Arizona
3) My camera, art supplies and computer
4) Learning new things through books and travel to places in the USA, Europe, Mexico, and the Far East. My favorite book is a biography of Georgia O'Keefe called "Full Bloom," which inspired me to come here from NYC.
5) Music of all kinds and from all different worlds inspires me (that's why the studio has two kinds of ways to play music :-) - especially jazz, rock, country and world music.
My style of traveling is very "down to earth" and no frills. Am a passionate environmentalist and art lover. I enjoy gaining new experiences and try to travel as light as possible - especially when going on planes. Road trips are my favorite since the dogs can join me.
I do have a life motto: "Art is life and vice versa." And my favorite quotation is from Bette Davis: "No Guts, No Glory."

I'm building a site for a client (NDA, can not list website).
I'm stuck on the "Mixed Basket" section of their website. They sell cookies and I'm trying to achieve the following:
#1 - Select size (Large / Small)
#2 - Select up to 4 different types of cookies.
Now in theory that base is super simple, and has actually already been completed. My issue is there is ONE cookie that costs more than the others, and buy adding it to this basket is to increase the price of the basket but only ONE time.
Select Size: Large
Select Cookie: Chocolate Chip
Select Cookie: Chocolate Chip
Select Cookie: Raspberry Chip
Select Cookie: Raspberry Chip
Now, the base price of the basket is $40, but by choosing "Chocolate Chip" it needs to increase the total cost to $50 and with that increase it is only to add the $10 upcharge ONCE. I have it listed there 2 times, but it is not to cost $60 (40+20=60), it is only supposed to cost $50.
So how would one go about having a price adjustment for ONE product variation?
I'm running the most recent versions of WordPress and wooCommerce.
I did search all over google, and read numerous articles that you can alter the price based on 'attributes', and attempted to work that setup into WooCommerce however it is not the attribute that I need to attach the price increase to, it is the specific product itself.
Is this even possible?

Twitter Tools - not creating blog posts from tweets
I had twitter tools working fine from my sidebar, tweets were updated.
But now that I have decided to select the option "Create a blog post from each of your tweets" set to "yes," the tweets are not showing as blog posts.
Is there something that I need to do to tweak my theme called "Shifter" to get this to work?

Yeah, if winning a Super Bowl was a requirement, he would have been fired years ago. :rolleyes:
It was posted on at UT board, so don't know if it is true, but I hope it is!
So.....I have heard that VY's house is on the market and he is back in Houston, so you probably won't have to worry about him anymore.:)
How do you know Fisher isn't the one making up facts? Because he told you so? :rolleyes:
-He never missed any treatment for his ankle injury & fisher said this himself.
Guess he slipped up and told the truth before he had a chance to...
I don't care if he ever plays again as long as he never takes another snap as a Titan.
Great! I hope you are 100% correct! VY deserves better.
No. He would sometimes limp off as we all held our breath and then be back in the next series running again.
Since middle school......:lol:
I wonder which team will snap him up now? If I remember correctly from a month or so ago, a lot of people here could hardly wait for that to happen....
The Vince we all knew and loved is back!!
Right. :rolleyes:
I agree. And it's no coincidence that VY trusts Hall and Scaife.

Find a St. Joseph's altar near you
Published: Thursday, March 18, 2010 at 12:37 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, March 18, 2010 at 12:37 p.m.
HOUMA — Velma Dufrene of Lockport and her crew have spent the past three weeks baking cakes, fancy breads and special dough into the shapes of crosses, Bibles, hearts, palm leaves and other Christian symbols.
Here's where you can find Saint Joseph Altars Friday
-- St. Joseph Co-Cathedral in Thibodaux, in the Life Center, 10 a.m.-2 p.m.
-- St. Joseph Catholic Church of Galliano, in the recreation center, 9 a.m.- 4 p.m., with a meal served from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

-- St. Joseph Plantation in Vacherie, 9:30 a.m.-4 p.m. today and Saturday. For information, call the plantation at 225-265-4078.
Then there are the hundreds of Italian cookies, the lucky beans, the fruits and vegetables and colorful decorations required for a fitting tribute to Saint Joseph's Day, celebrated Friday.
Dufrene and other Catholics throughout Terrebonne and Lafourche parishes have been hard at work this month creating altars in honor of Saint Joseph, patron saint of carpenters, Sicily and working people.
"I just enjoy doing it. I have devotion to Saint Joseph," Dufrene said. "I pray to him all the time because he's a worker."
The altars, a tradition dating back to medieval times in Sicily, celebrate the Italian island's patron saint with prayers, meals, sweets, elaborate décor and donations of food and money to people in need. Visitors usually leave with cookies, a lucky bean, blessed bread and a prayer card.

Letters: National debt is piling up beyond all reason
There is much concern today about the future of our children and grandchildren if the stimulus package is passed by Congress, and rightly so. The huge debt left for them to pay could result in a much greater tax rate than we are currently paying and certainly much higher than was paid by the preceding generation. That seems to be the history of an economy throughout the ages.

love the ring second ring I've bought from O last one after 6weeks lost stone hoping this one is better. would buy the insurance just to be safe.
- How did the image on site compare with the actual product? very much like the picture
- How accurate was the sizing? very
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. I wear it everyday still has that sparkel
This was perfect. My wife loved it and it was true to form.
- Did the image onsite match the product? Yes
- Did the product fit true to size? Yes
- How is the quality of the product? Amazing
beautiful ring! Got lots of compliments. It looks just as good as a similar ring (if not the same one!) I was looking at in the jewelry store. Overstock had it for almost half the price. It does run maybe half a size small though...
I have had this ring as my wedding band for 3 years now. I bought in on overstock and have been very happy with it. I have had no problems with it and it is a great size for me. I am a nurse so this fits my lifestyle because I only wear my wedding band to work. It adds some sparkle to my hand and it looks great even by itself.

Russian Attack Jet Repeatedly Overflies U.S. Warship In Black Sea
The crisis in Ukraine has taken on even more of a Cold War-era feel after a Russian warplane made nearly a dozen low passes over the weekend of a U.S. destroyer that was sailing in the Black Sea.
Col. Steve Warren, a Pentagon spokesman, calls the Russian flybys "provocative and unprofessional," NPR's Tom Bowman reports.
According to the Pentagon, the Russian SU-24 attack aircraft came within several thousand feet of the USS Donald Cook on Saturday and ignored multiple radio warnings from the ship.
The Russian aircraft did not appear to be carrying bombs or missiles. Warren said another SU-24 was flying high above.
The incident reportedly lasted about 90 minutes. The Donald Cook was in international waters, the Pentagon reports.
NBC News says the U.S. ship "did not go to battle stations."
Ukraine borders the Black Sea on the north. Russia borders that body of water on the east. The Crimean peninsula extends from Ukraine into the Black Sea. Last month, after the collapse of Ukraine's pro-Russia government, Russian troops moved into Crimea. Soon after that, Russia annexed the region — over the protests of Ukraine, the U.S. and many Western nations.
As we reported earlier today, pro-Russia gunmen continue to occupy many government buildings in eastern Ukraine — despite warnings from the Ukrainian government that it will use force, if necessary, to remove them. With tens of thousands of his troops just across the border, there are fears that Russian President Vladimir Putin may send troops into eastern Ukraine.
On Monday, Ukrainian President Oleksandr Turchynov has asked U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to send international peacekeepers into eastern Ukraine with Ukrainian troops.

An innocent question posed in a Facebook group this morning was about the 6% commission debate and why commissions are 6% if it's a myth. It is a simple question with a simple answer that I can give because I am no longer a Realtor, and I'm absolutely entitled to my opinion whether you like it or not, as are you.
The 6% isn't really a myth, albeit the average actual paid real estate commission is much lower at around 5%. It is a fact that the commission is negotiable, but what consumers and Realtors have never understood is that from a sales perspective, that 3% per side has become more of a fictitious floor than a ceiling. When you ask a Realtor why, quite honestly, no one really knows, but the default knee-jerk response is, "but commissions are negotiable."
Sure they are, it's an absolute fact, but again, from a sales perspective (a lesson for any sales related business, not just real estate) negotiating from the floor is a failed proposition as a business.
Sure, people like to say it's so easy to list a property because they have an iPad now, and possibly a responsive MLS they can enter data into, but quite frankly (and I know listing agents will mostly agree, or at the least successful ones anyway) the expectations on listing a property have grown exponentially, as well as the expectations on the property agent themselves. The amount of hours it takes to actually hammer a square transaction through the round hole of closing has indeed increased tenfold – this is just a round number factoring shortsales, troublesome financing, or combating a neighborhood marred by failed mortgages and foreclosures.
Technology has made this housing crash more bearable, not easier, so why haven't real estate commissions increased tenfold? They haven't, yet there is still this burning need to negotiate from a floor – do you think your home seller respects this? No way, they love easy prey, sucker.
As milk prices have increased, gas prices have exploded, the cost of paper, ink, technology, supplying real estate porn to aggregators, the costs of featuring property within online environments and so many other factors of day to day life and business have risen due to the cost of doing business, yet real estate commissions have remained the same – around 5%?
These costs have to be passed on somewhere, and to be quite blunt, volume listing of property is costly and in high demand – just ask Trulia, Zillow, and Homes.com and others why these portals are not out acquiring their own property listings? Their answer will be that it's not profitable. And why aren't consumers uploading their own properties for sale in greater numbers? Because in the end, real estate search sites cannot support the consumer demand side in service of the listing, and that's a fact. Instead, that's laid on the backs of the listing agent and broker in their model – another cost of doing business.
So, in summation, I'm not going to tell you what you should be charging as a real estate commission per side, but I do think listing agents that are really in business have to look at the reality of the cost of doing business. Buyers agents say every day that it's easier because of technology, but that's not true of the listing side.
It wouldn't surprise me if in this very year you don't see listing brokers increase their commissions for their side of the transaction and lower the buyer side offering, and if they are the smart sales professionals I believe them to be, that fictitious floor and cieling could burst upwards to 8 or 9%, and why stop there? In some ways the cieling is regulated, but I'm not sure that's really been challenged in court. If you're truly negotiating commissions, shouldn't you negotiate from a position of strength? It's just good business.
So I say that each broker needs to do a real analysis of their business models and listen to their consumer – they want to negotiate, and it's about time listing brokers gave them what they've asked for.
