"I share the country's admiration for the bravery of Captain Phillips and his selfless concern for his crew. His courage is a model for all Americans."--President Barack Obama It was just another day on the job for fifty-three-year-old Richard Phillips, captain of the Maersk Alabama, the United States-flagged cargo ship which was carrying, among other things, food and agricultural materials for the World Food Program. That all changed when armed Somali pirates boarded the ship. The pirates didn't expect the crew to fight back, nor did they expect Captain Phillips to offer himself as hostage in exchange for the safety of his crew. Thus began the tense five-day stand-off, which ended in a daring high-seas rescue when U.S. Navy SEALs opened fire and picked off three of the captors. "It never ends like this," Captain Phillips said. And he's right. A Captain's Duty tells the life-and-death drama of the Vermont native who was held captive on a tiny lifeboat off Somalia's anarchic, gun-plagued shores. A story of adventure and courage, it provides the intimate details of this high-seas hostage-taking--the unbearable heat, the death threats, the mock executions, and the escape attempt. When the pirates boarded his ship, Captain Phillips put his experience into action, doing everything he could to safeguard his crew. And when he was held captive by the pirates, he marshaled all his resources to ensure his own survival, withstanding intense physical hardship and an escalating battle of wills with the pirates. This was it: the moment where training meets instinct and where character is everything. Richard Phillips was ready.

Shed Really Bad
I love tge feel of these blankets. However, they shed really bad. We have blanket fuzzy embedded in all of our clothes from these blankets. I have washed them several times.

Light, soft, comfy, cozy, but not hot!
Color: Dark Sage Green, Size: King/Cal King
I've been looking for a blanket to replace a Berkshire blanket called "Perfect Touch" I've had since 2009 and this is it! I wanted something light weight, comfy, and cozy that doesn't get so hot like many do. When I first got it i thought it might get hot because its soooo fluffy, but it doesn't. I know some have complained about shedding or it coming apart after washing. I've washed it several times, following the washing instructions provided and haven't had any issues at all, really nice quality for the price!
Oh, and its cat approved too.

Cute for girl's dorm room! Needs a wash/dry warning.
Color: Pastel Lilac, Size: Twin/Twin XL
Wash/dry by itself. Leaves lint on anything and everything that is washed and dried with it. Kiddo learned the hard way. Loves the blanket and it's feel and color but was disappointed with the left-over pills on the rest of her items from that 1 load. Soft, fluffy and lavender. Great for her dorm!

A cozy fall must-have!
Color: Pumpkin, Size: 50" x 60"
This Halloween Fleece Throw Blanket with pumpkins, leaves, and fall plaid is absolutely perfect for the season! The design is charming—everything from the vibrant pumpkins to the cozy plaid gives off major autumn vibes. It’s the ideal addition to my fall decor and keeps me warm on chilly nights.
The fleece material is incredibly soft and plush, and it's surprisingly lightweight yet warm enough for those crisp evenings. I love curling up with a cup of tea and wrapping myself in it while watching Halloween movies.
If you’re looking to add a little extra autumn magic to your home, this throw is a must-have! It’s not just cute—it's comfy and cozy too! 🍂🎃🧡
