SAN ANTONIO — UTSA will begin an 11-game road trip on Wednesday when it takes on Houston Baptist in a 2 p.m. doubleheader.
The Roadrunners (11-8), who are coming off a 3-1 week that included their first win against Houston since 2006, rank third in the Western Athletic Conference with a .299 batting average and a 2.41 ERA.
Megan Low paces the offense and ranks second in the league with a .455 batting average, while her .864 slugging percentage and .636 on-base percentage lead the circuit. The Spring native hit .571 last week with a pair of doubles and seven walks, five of which were intentional.
Haylee Staton leads the pitching staff with a 1.62 ERA to go along with her 6-2 record and one save. The Austin native has struck out 44 batters and has two shutouts this season. Meanwhile, Alyssa Vordenbaum evened her record at 3-3 last week with a pair of victories. She recorded a career-high six strikeouts and allowed just two unearned runs in the win at Houston before going 5.1 frames in a victory last Saturday against Sam Houston State.
The Huskies (4-3) will be looking to snap a three-game losing streak on Tuesday when they play a doubleheader at Texas Southern. Houston Baptist opened the season with wins against Southern, Alcorn State and Louisiana Tech before losses to Texas, Houston and the Lady Tigers.
The squad is led by Lauren Schwirtlich, who has started every contest and is hitting .556 with two triples, a home run and four RBIs. Her sister, Kirsten, is batting .381 and paces the Huskies with three homers and 13 RBIs.
Houston Baptist's four wins are spread among four pitchers. Sarah Shotton has seen the most work in the circle with 17 innings and she has a 2.06 ERA and 17 strikeouts to go along with her 1-1 record.
UTSA leads the all-time series 15-4 despite dropping two of three meetings with the Huskies last season.

Freelancers Retirement Plan
Freelancers Union's 401(k) Retirement Plan helps freelancers save for retirement. Start saving now or rollover an old account.Get started
Why Retirement?
Being a freelancer doesn't mean your finances have to be in freefall. Retirement may seem far on your horizon, but the sooner you start saving, the more comfortable you'll end up. By enrolling in our freelance-friendly 401(k) plan, you'll be able to:
Roll with the punches.
Life is full of surprises, some more pleasant than others. A 401(k) can help shoulder the burden of unexpected medical costs and provide financial security for your loved ones.
Eliminate uncertainty.
As more people retire and live longer than ever, social security benefits continue to shrink. A retirement plan will put you in charge so your golden years remain rich.
Make your money work for you.
Saving now lets you plan for later. A 401(k) will give you a clear sense of your financial future as well as a cushion to pursue goals down the road.
Who is eligible?
Any freelancer who receives 1099 income is eligible, but you can't contribute to the Freelancers Retirement Plan and a SEP IRA (Self Employed Individual Retirement Account) in the same year.
We do the work for you
Not a financial planner? Don't worry. Our plan automatically readjusts as you get older, so that your investments are always working for you.
Freelancer friendly
Freelancers' income is always changing. That's why our plan has no minimums and lets you change your contribution every month. You can also make a big contribution at the end of the year to reduce your taxable income.

"That's all I ever wanted to do," she said. "Every job I've ever had has involved working with children. I started babysitting when I was 12. Then after babysitting, I started working at the Care Center through Piedmont Housing Authority. After working there, I started working at Camp Cottaquilla for six consecutive summers. When the care center closed, I started working for Piedmont City Schools as a substitute teacher and a teacher at the Piedmont Learning Academy. I now work as a teacher at Coosa Valley Regional Youth Detention Center."
Eboney is going into her third year of teaching at Coosa Valley in Anniston. Students there range in age from 10-18.
"I'm very happy with my job," she said. "I'm 100 percent sure this is where I'm supposed to be. When I wake up in the morning, I don't have an uneasy feeling about having to go to work. I know that at 7:30 when I walk through the doors, I'm going to be able to do something that I love to do."
Eboney graduated from Piedmont High School in 2003, and that's where she acquired a love of history.
"In my senior year, I had a teacher who made history fun," she said. "It wasn't about memorizing facts, reading endless amounts of notes, or using any form of rote memorization. It was different. It was more about applying what you're learning to real life situations. I wanted to be the kind of teacher she was. She had a big influence on my life."
That teacher was Lauri Elam.
Eboney, 27, is the daughter of Tiny Lewis and the late Joe Lewis. She was born and reared in Piedmont. She loves her hometown.
"Piedmont is awesome," she said. "It's been the best place for me to live. The community is wonderful and supportive. When we're growing up, we all say things about wanting to move away, but it's within those couple of years branching out that we realize that Piedmont will always be home."
She received her BSE (2008) and MSE (2010) in general social science from Jacksonville State University and is currently taking classes at the University of Alabama to get her educational specialist degree.
Eboney is a member of Word Alive International Outreach Church in Coldwater where she is active in Life Group, a Bible study group, and is a second Saturday volunteer to help give out items to those in need.
She's a Zumba fitness instructor at Bethune Community Center in Piedmont and at Pepper's Academy of Self Defense in Jacksonville.
Eboney is happy to be where she is in her life right now. She has lost 180 pounds in the past three years by eating right and exercising.
"It wasn't just Zumba," she said. "It's also eating the right food. I feel a lot better. Realizing that health problems ran in my family I knew that if I didn't get control of it, I would be having the same problems."
Eboney enjoys reading, writing, playing volleyball and softball and blogging. Anyone wanting to see her blogs can go to www.sparkpeople.com. Her user name is ebielou. She has recently been recognized as an official spark people success story.
She likes to cook and knew that to be able to lose weight and keep her weight off, she'd need to know how to prepare healthy meals. She knew nothing about cooking, so she asked her mother and a friend about their recipes. A friend literally walked her through the first thing she made -- baked pork chops. Eboney served these with corn and yeast rolls, which were frozen, yet healthier than some of the things she'd been eating.
"I'm cooking healthy now," she said. "It has completely changed my life."
Eboney encourages others to watch what they eat and to exercise. Some of her favorite recipes are her version of Baked Pork Chops, Chicken Stove Top Pot Pie, Pizza Pasta Casserole and Easy Red Velvet Cookies.

Saints' Drop Thriller 81-77 to Belmont Abbey
DAHLONEGA, Ga. – Four Saints hit double-digits in point totals for the North Georgia College & State University men's basketball team, but it was not enough as Belmont Abbey College (5-1) claimed a thriller of a game 81-77 over the Saints (3-2) inside Memorial Hall Gymnasium Saturday evening.
North Georgia was extremely solid from the field, hitting on 41.4% (29-70) of their looks, but the Crusaders were more efficient as they knocked down 54.2% (32-59) of their attempts overall. The Saints were only 28.1% (9-32) from three-point range while Belmont Abbey was able to go 8-14 (57.1%) from beyond the arc.
Lamar Richardson led the Saints with 16 points off four three-pointers while fellow guard Chris Tanzy added 13 points of his own including three treys.
Ishmael Hollis and Scott Windom rounded out the top scoring for North Georgia with 12 points each. The tandem of forwards also led the starters with six rebounds each while Victor Holder came off the bench to corral in nine boards.
Tyshawn Good led all scorers with 29 points off an efficient 11-17 performance from the field. He was 5-7 from three-point range and added four rebounds, three assists and two steals.
Terrone Sheffey added 14 points and Chris Davis contributed 12 points of his own.
The two teams matched up extremely well on the hardwood as the largest lead of the night was Belmont Abbey's 10-point lead (16-6) off a Tyshawn layup with 15:12 remaining in the first half.
But from there, North Georgia was able to regroup and, with 5:23 remaining in the opening stanza, Windom handed North Georgia a 30-29 lead off a jumper.
The two entered intermission tied at 40, but the Saints opened the second stanza with a 10-2 run before Belmont Abbey was able to regain its composure.
The Crusaders tied things back up at 59-all just seven minutes into the game and for the next seven minutes the two traded the lead back and forth, but Belmont Abbey was able to take the lead back for good with just over five minutes remaining when Jay Council made a layup.
North Georgia will now embark on a four-game road trek to close out the 2012 portion of the season starting with a Wednesday, Nov. 28 game at Treutt-McConnell. Tipoff is schedule for 7:30 p.m.

ALLEN PARK, Mich. (WJBK)
Police in Allen Park are hoping several store surveillance pictures will help them track down a man suspected of robbing a local Metro PCS store.
Detectives say the man entered the store at 23063 W. Outer Drive on Saturday and made off with wallets from several purses belonging to employees.
Both victims say they were working on the sales floor and believed the suspect was using the restroom when he walked to the back of the store and entered the "Employees Only" door. They did not approach the man as he left and later discovered their wallets had been taken from their purses which were hanging on the wall in the employees' break room.
The suspect is described as a Black Male, between 20 and 30 years old. He was wearing blue jeans, red plaid jacket and a black baseball hat.
Anyone with information about the crime is asked to call the Allen Park Police Department.

Kennedy Laid to Rest at Arlington Cemetery
Catholic News Service
Tuesday, September 01, 2009
Family members gather during the burial service for Sen. Kennedy at Arlington National Cemetery.
BOSTON (CNS)—Sen. Edward M. Kennedy was mourned at a Boston church and laid to rest at Arlington National Cemetery Aug. 29, amid words of comfort from the Book of Wisdom, Paul's Letter to the Romans and the Gospel of Matthew, and recollections of his life by his sons, his pastor, President Barack Obama and Cardinal Theodore E. McCarrick.
During the funeral Mass for the senator at Boston's Basilica of Our Lady of Perpetual Help, Father Mark Hession, pastor of Our Lady of Victory Parish in Centerville, Mass., linked the Scripture readings—chosen by Kennedy, his wife, Vicki, and their family—with elements of the senator's own life and faith.
"St. Paul states our case with his usual confidence," Father Hession noted of the reading that opens: "If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own son but handed him over for us all, how will he not also give us everything else along with him?"
Father Hession said "that confidence (that) the triumph of life over death is rooted in the central belief of Christian faith" is the conviction on which all Christian faith is built— "that Christ who passed through death to new life will, as he promised, lead us through death to new life as well."
"We hold the life of Sen. Kennedy with reverence and respect," Father Hession continued. "We also recognize that like all of us his life has a destiny beyond history, destiny of risen life in the kingdom of God."
Boston Cardinal Sean P. O'Malley presided over the funeral and said the final prayers of commendation. Boston College chancellor Jesuit Father J. Donald Monan, a longtime friend, was the main celebrant.
Four other priests concelebrated: Father Raymond Collins, pastor of the basilica, also known as the Mission Church, and the senator's longtime friends Father Gerry Creedon, pastor of St. Charles Borromeo Church in Arlington, Va.; Father Percival D'Silva, pastor of Holy Redeemer Church in Kensington, Md.; and Jesuit Father Donald MacMillan, chaplain at Boston College.
A long list of family members participated by giving the readings and petitions, taking up offertory gifts or serving as pallbearers or ushers. Music was provided by cellist Yo-Yo Ma, the Tanglewood Festival Chorus, mezzo-soprano Susan Graham and tenor Placido Domingo.
Kennedy's two sons, Patrick and Ted Jr., offered remembrances at the end of the Mass. Each recalled lessons learned and strength gained from their father.
In his eulogy, Obama said that through a variety of types of suffering in his life, Kennedy "became more alive to the plight and suffering of others—the sick child who could not see a doctor; the young soldier sent to battle without armor; the citizen denied her rights because of what she looks like or who she loves or where she comes from."
Later, during the burial service at twilight at Arlington Cemetery in Virginia, Cardinal McCarrick, Washington's retired archbishop, said Kennedy deserved his reputation as the lion of the Senate.
"His roar and his zeal for what he believed made a difference in our nation's life," said Cardinal McCarrick.
"Sometimes, we who were his friends and had affection for him would get mad at him when he roared at what we believed was the wrong side of an issue," he continued, "but we always knew and were always touched by his passion for the underdog, for the rights of working people, for better education and for adequate health care for every American.
"His legacy will surely place him among the dozen or so greats in the history of the Senate of the United States," he said.
Cardinal McCarrick also read excerpts of letters exchanged by Kennedy and Pope Benedict XVI in the last few weeks. Kennedy sent a personal letter to the pope that Obama delivered during their meeting at the Vatican in July. The Vatican responded a couple of weeks later, the cardinal said.
He explained that he and Kennedy's family thought using parts of the letters would help "commemorate the faith of Ted Kennedy and the warm and paternal spirit of Pope Benedict XVI."
Kennedy wrote to the pope: "I have been blessed to be a part of a wonderful family, and both of my parents, particularly my mother, kept our Catholic faith at the center of our lives. That gift of faith has sustained, nurtured and provided solace to me in the darkest hours. I know that I have been an imperfect human being, but with the help of my faith, I have tried to right my path.
"I want you to know, Your Holiness, that in my nearly 50 years of elective office, I have done my best to champion the rights of the poor and open doors of economic opportunity," he continued.
"I've worked to welcome the immigrant, fight discrimination and expand access to health care and education. I have opposed the death penalty and fought to end war. Those are the issues that have motivated me and been the focus of my work as a United States senator," he said.
Kennedy also told the pope: "I have always tried to be a faithful Catholic, Your Holiness, and though I have fallen short through human failings, I have never failed to believe and respect the fundamental teachings. I continue to pray for God's blessings on you and our church and would be most thankful for your prayers for me."
Cardinal McCarrick said that two weeks later, Kennedy received a reply.
It read, in part: "The Holy Father ... was saddened to know of your illness, and has asked me to assure you of his concern and his spiritual closeness. He is particularly grateful for your promise of prayers for him and for the needs of the universal church.
"His Holiness prays that in the days ahead you may be sustained in faith and hope, and granted the precious grace of joyful surrender to the will of God our merciful father. He invokes upon you the consolation and peace promised by the risen Savior to all who share in his sufferings and trust in his promise of eternal life," it said.
"Commending you and the members of your family to the loving intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Holy Father cordially imparts his apostolic blessing as a pledge of wisdom, comfort and strength in the Lord."

Power has been restored to more than 87 percent of PECO's customers in Montgomery and Bucks counties, the utility said late Saturday afternoon.
About 15,000 customers remained without power in Montgomery County, PECO said. It hopes to have most of the remaining customers back in service by midnight on Sunday night. Customers "in the most damaged and isolated areas" may not get service back until later in the week, the company said.
Patch was at the scene as power was restored to one neighborhood in the Eagleville section of Lower Providence Township on Saturday evening.
Abington, Cheltenham, Upper Moreland, Lower Merion, and Plymouth townships were named by PECO as the areas that remained most severely impacted by power outages.
"I want to thank our customers for their patience and understanding as we continue to focus on safely restoring service across the region," said Craig Adams, PECO President and CEO, in a statement sent to media outlets. "We know it is hard to be without electric, especially for several days. I want to assure our customers that we will not stop until every last customer is restored."
A PECO customer information center will be open at the Best Buy location at 1130 Easton Road in Willow Grove from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday. Customers may visit the center to speak with a PECO representative about their outage.

- Bob Vila TV Shows >
- Basement Finishing and Family Space > Episode 12: Exterior Lighting, Audio, Video, and Décor for the Melrose Home
Installing Exterior Lighting
Bob is in Melrose, where landscape lighting is installed in the front and back yards using 12/2 wire in a continuous lead from the last light fixture all the way to the hub connecting solid-stem brass fixtures and 20-watt bulbs throughout the grounds. The yard is on a single circuit but could be wired as zones to turn lights on when it's dark, or to break up controls between the front, back, and side yards. The exterior is completely rewired for lighting and outlets while the inside gets radio-frequency-controlled lighting complete with scenes for different areas of the home. The children's room is reorganized with a double desk, toy storage, drawers, and bookshelves. The basement is completely finished with basement drainage, waterproofing, new subfloors, easy-stick carpet tiles, media-room recliners, audio and video systems, finished storage, a second bath with a macerating toilet and pump, laundry, and a small desk area. The entire basement is finished with a basement system that provides walls, trim, doors, and ceiling for a polished, sound-deadening new family room. The new furnace, central air, air purification, and on-demand hot water system are tucked behind finished walls where they function quietly to keep the entire house comfortable.
- Part 1: Installing Exterior Lighting
- Although the project in the Melrose home began as a basement expansion and remodel, it soon expanded to include portions of the home that either needed repair or offered opportunities for improvement. The front of the house had some serious landscape and hardscape improvements made, including putting in a retaining wall and new shrubs and bushes. A white cedar fence was put along the side of the house. An area of peastone was put in the backyard along with a section of NewGrass artificial grass. Tom Pena of Atlantic View Lighting reviews how the outdoor lighting fixtures were installed. In this case, a 20 watt Astrobrite bulb was used which should last a long time and is user-friendly as it is resistant to oils on human hands. The Uniques stem and fixture are solid brass and feature a lifetime warranty. A 25-foot wire was used to power the lights, 22 of them in all. Every fixture in this case has a 20 watt bulb. Different sections of the yard could be designed to handle lighting differently. Photocell lighting is available to turn lights on automatically when it turns dark. No matter what size the lighting job, installers should work in order from the last light installed back to the hub to make sure things work consistently.
- Part 2: Planning Exterior and Interior Lighting, Storage Solutions, and Interior Decorating
- Part 3: Touring the Completed Basement Remodel
Also from Basement Finishing and Family Space
Episode 1 - Removing Unwanted Junk and Combatting Basement MoistureDescription:

In Melrose, MA, a family with two young sons needs extra room and looks to Bob and his team to repurpose their damp basement for expanded living space. Homeowner Sarah Monzon shows Bob the backyard of the 1921 gambrel with a stone retaining wall they created to manage the slope for the kids' play yard. She explains how the exterior has water intrusion and moisture buildup problems. Inside, Cyrus Beasley rips out the under-stair closet and assesses the stair support required while the plumber disconnects the old soapstone sink. The Monzons then clear out years of junk and demolition waste before calling 1-800-Got-Junk to stack, sort, and dispose of everything to donation centers, recycling sites, and the dump for a set price. Larry Janesky of Basement Systems reviews the exterior drainage problems of the home with Bob and then explains how they will reduce moisture on the inside. The crew breaks up the concrete floor to create an interior drainage trench, applies Clean Walls to isolate the stone walls and send moisture runoff to the drainage trench and sump, installs Thermal Dry radiant barrier behind finished walls to prevent moisture transfer, and creates a hole for the sump.

Episode 2 - Basement Waterproofing, New Plumbing, and On-Demand Hot WaterDescription:

Bob and Larry Janesky of Basement Systems review the work being done to cut a drainage trench in the concrete around the perimeter of the basement floor. Water will be channeled through the trench to a sump – dug at the lowest spot in the basement – where it can be pumped out of the home.  A triple safe power pump protects the home even if there is a loss of power. Bob reviews the work done on the existing plumbing once all the waterproofing and flood-prevention measures are put in place in the basement. Al Leone of Leone Plumbing Corp. first cut the pipes into sections for easy removal and demonstrates some of the specialized work he does to install the pipe, including using oakum, a joint runner, and poured hot lead to form a joint seal. Old brass water pipes are replaced with PEX tubing, creating more headroom in the basement and the sink and laundry lines can be easily relocated. Bob talks with Dan Driscoll of Rinnai about the new on-demand water heater being installed. The heater is a whole-house system sized for a three-bathroom household, laundry, and cleaning. An on-demand, tankless water heater saves basement space  and is energy efficient because it does not store hot water. Driscoll opens up the water heater to show how the system works. Once the water is turned on, sensors detect the amount of water being used and the temperature of the incoming cold water. The on-demand system is about 40% more efficient than gas-fueled tank water heaters and 70% more efficient than electric tank water heaters.

Episode 3 - Moving the Oil Tank for New Heating, Cooling, and Air FiltrationDescription:

Bob is in Melrose where John Ambrosino of Total Temperature Control installs the new heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. Because of clearance issues, the unit is installed horizontally and tied to the joists with steel rods. Ambrosino explains how the unit pulls air in for exchange, to be heated or cooled, then pushes it through a fan and into the ducts for circulation. The 16 SEER unit is very big for maximum efficiency, quiet operation, and up to 45 percent savings over current energy costs. Mark Hagan shows Bob the Trane CleanEffects whole-house three-stage air-cleaning system that cleans the air of 99.98 percent of particulates, filtering first for large particles, then charging the small particles and capturing them in a collection filter for healthy indoor air. Don Adams of Bond-Tite Tank Service shows Bob how they move the oil tank, reattach it, set it in a trough to catch leaks and drips, and apply Tank-Guard to isolate condensing water and prevent tank corrosion. Bob talks to Howard Brickman about how to control squeaking floors either by drawing the wood floor tight against the subfloor with screws, connecting blocking to the joists and subfloor from below, or shimming the space between the subfloor and joists.

Welcome to the show here in Melrose. It's our final visit at the project where we've taken a basement area and turned it into a fabulous family room, and of course the project grew from there . So we are going to show you other parts of the house where we have have made some serious improvements including the bedrooms, the backyard, we'll be looking at all sorts of lighting, lots of neat stuff to show you.
Stick around, it's good to have you with us. Although Our project here began really just as an expansion and remodel of the downstairs basement space of this little house. It soon expanded to include all sorts of areas that either needed repair or offered opportunities for improvement.
So I'm standing at the front of the house where we did some serious hardscape and landscape improvements. Putting in a retainer wall to create a sense of separation from the sidewalk and the street, putting in all sorts of beautiful shrubs and bushes.
And then around the sides and the back of the house, a beautiful white cedar fence, including a potting shed and storage areas, so that the tiny backyard in the house can be further developed, where in fact we put in a beautiful area of pea stone and another area of new grass, something the little kids won't be able to destroy very easily.
And, now everything is complete, including the outdoor lighting.
What you do is you start with the right bulb size. The bulb is, in this case, a 20 watt astro bright, has a 10,000 hour lamp life . Similar to an LED light, it lasts a long time, but more user friendly than a halogen because if you touch this particular bulb with your fingers, it won't blow up as, as a halogen will because of the oil on your fingers. That will then touch the light source and cause a problem.
From there you go to the stem and the fixture, which is a solid brass fixture made by Uniques. Comes with a lifetime warranty, so you're guaranteed that it's gonna last forever and in any condition.
From there, you have got a great wire lead, cause the 25ft wire lead is pre-done, so you minimize the amount of connection which is your biggest breaking point in the lighting system.
With that, at the end of that wire lead, you take your 12-2 wire, in this case, and bring it to your main source, which then be your hub.
So, in this case, with this installation, as far as transformer power goe , we're going to be using 840 watt trans-meric from. There's 22 light fixtures in this property.
Every fixture in this case is a twenty watt bulb, so we have more than enough transformer power to do this property.
What you could do, because we have a front yard, a backyard and a side yard, is you could designate the different sections and have different transformers, so you may want the front yard to stay on, maybe till twelve 'o' clock at night, maybe perhaps the backyard only goes on a switch so, then now you have options.
The style you are depending on the usage could then have it be on with the switch or have it be on a photocell timer, such as the front. Photocell means that when it turns dark, it turns on.
A timer can turn it off whatever time you' ve predisposed it to do.
So what have we learned as far as insulation goes, no matter what the size of the project is, whether its a 10 light job or a 200 light project that you have to be able to go in order to make things work very consistently.
So as you dig your trenches and you lay your lights out. What you want to do is when you pull your wire leads, which is our main line through the transmitter to our set of lights.
Three, four, five lights whatever a set it is. You wanna pull it all the way to the end. Pull your leads all the way back, that way, as far as is concerned with me owning a lighting company and being consistent, and having all our employees working at once, is as you start at the end and you finish, you can work your way back and everyone works their way back together.
So as you're wiring the lights it's putting the wire leads on it, hubbing them up, you start back filling, setting your lights and you all finish together right back at the transmitter where you then power up the lights and then you are done.
So in that sense everything's done perfectly together. You have lots of options when you are choosing lighting fixtures for remodeling an old house, and you want to make sure you find something that's sympathetic.
These are chosen from Bellacor selections.
The two you see on the porch ceiling which with their clear glass domes really are appropriate for a house built back in the 1920's with kind of an eclectic mixture of styles.
There's a little bit a Dutch Colonial here mixed in with just regular American Colonial. Gambrel in arts and crafts. In fact, some of the lighting fixtures that we'll see around the back of the house, really do reflect that arts and crafts style.
But remember, houses in the 20's, people were very happy just to have electricity, never mind all the other amenities that we have today . And that applies for the interiors too. Most of the interiors of this house had very little storage room and the closets, in fact, were quite small.
So again we've had the opportunity to embellish and expand on the whole area of closets and storage.
When I came to see the boys room There was a lot of little containers for toy storage and it felt a little bit cluttered. I asked Sarah what she would like to see incorporated in this design and she said she would like to have easy toy storage as well as a desk area.
The first suggestion I gave her with the design was one desk. She suggested two separate spaces, for sanity for the boys. I've included some pencil drawers, as well as a big drawer for art storage.
Some toy storage on bookshelves over here, with baskets for stuffed animals, balls, baseball mitts. Bookcase that boys can easily reach down low. Extra things to store up high .
And we don't, when we are in someone's house we don't always have to come up with a system. We try to use what's existing. This is a perfect instance. With the closet I suggested taking the door off. Painting inside. Sarah's using some storage space items that she had before. We're using every nook and cranny. And what we have left is nicely clean design for boys to grow and play.
Next we added a great new bunk bed from levitts.com and suddenly we had lot of space for homework and chilling out.
All this online dot-com shopping spread to the master bedroom as well. So, besides having hardly any closet space, this little 1921 house basically had almost no exterior lighting and not even a place to plug in the Christmas lights.
Our electrician John Charvoni changed all that, as well as adding some great fixtures to the inside of the house, which has really undergone a big face lift.
Now in the living room itself we're going to talk about all the changes in a minute, but the light fixtures, the table lamps are all under a control that's wireless.
in an old house like this you don't want to have to run from table lamp to table lamp turning switches off all the time when it's night time.
So we learned how this one radio control can help, not only turn them on and off, but also create different moods.
The massive control unit is the heart of the Lutron Radio RAW system.
Here, we program five buttons to accommodate the homeowner's lifestyle.
Here we have the welcome scene.
And this controls the exterior light pole.
The other one is , the third one is the TV. And this button, for when they're watching TV, you don't want every light on in the house so, I have some of the lights to turn off, and some we didn't.
The brain of the Lutron Radio roster.
This is known as the RS signal repeater, which seeks out a signal not being used by wireless devices such as wireless phones or baby monitors.
It seeks out this signal to secure it, so that it's only used by the Lutron radio raw system.
The massive control box is not the only way to control all the lighting. In each room there's a wall demo switch which will allow you to turn it on or off or in between.
I especially like the dimmer features. But anyway, the house has some architectural character. It's got lots of nice dark woodwork. And the homeowners in taking back this space, now that they've got kid space downstairs, took that into account in their selections of new furniture. And of course everything's been done online.
The only things that remain in their old living room are grandmother's piano and an Indian armoir from which they have really taken the color scheme and even floral motive which they've found is the accent cushions.
Now, the other cool thing is that busy parents with young kids don't have too much much time to go to department stores and furniture stores and so this was all done online.
Levits.com for the furnishings and Bell rug for the beautiful oriental rug, indian rug, that we see on the floor here which really unifies the room, and wool rugs, oriental patterns, no matter what you say, they're always, they're always in keeping with especially New England houses like this.
And then of course, all the accent lighting, and all the little features that make it a warm room, but the main thing is that now we have adult space reclaimed and next we are going to look at the new kids space. And our new family room is one-hundred percent done and furnished and looks terrific.
And I thought it would be most fun to invite Sara Monsun who is our homeowner and who has been the GC on the project to give us the tour. Now Sara, let's reminisce a bit about what was here when you started?
It was a cave. That's what I liked to call it. There were two families who lived here before us. The house is 85 years old. Do the math. Everybody was doing their laundry, for years and years, in the basement, and before there were washing machines they had a pitted soap stone sink that they worked with.
Scrub -a-dub.
Yeah, and so obviously, when we moved in with all of our old stuff and stacked it all to the ceiling joists, it was not really great place to be. My husband still tired valiantly to use it as a music studio. The kids would come down here and we'd kind of let them play, but it wasn't ideal.
And it was such good space, that we were looking for the opportunity to make it into something livable.
Right. There was a lot of preliminary work that had to be done before we could get moving. Finishing the walls.
Well you decided to be your own general contractor?
Would you do that again?
No. Well actually I might out of necessity.
I mean I basically did it cause we didn't have a budget for that.
So, there was a tremendous learning curve. I actually got a lot of help from my local inpsectional services department here in Melrose. They where terrific and not condescending.
To a first time homeowner general contractor who was exploring this whole thing. You know, with only a surface knowledge of what was going on and trying to decide what had to happen when.
The proper way to do it. I can't stress enough that if a homeowner is going to do this sort of thing themselves, they explore what's safe and what's not and they get permits because if you do work without a permit and then something happens. Yeah, insured.
You're not insured, exactly.
You're stuck, your house is in jeopardy.
So let's talk about some of the basics that went on down here before we talk about all the beautiful particulars.
Yes. Well, you know this house was crisscrossed with heating ducts and the floors were concrete. It was just a rat slab down here.
We had water on the floor when it rained this past year. And it was the first time ever, but I said there is a first time for everything. It's just going to keep happening.
So, we had to have basement systems come in, and do a perimeter drain. Which was great. That was the first step.
We had to move a whole bunch of plumbing from the ceiling to make room for all this head height that we needed.
Right, because it is not exactly a deep cellar.
Right. And then we decided to move some ducts, and that turned into replacing the entire H VAC system. With a new system that's now over there in the mechanical space. Central air, which, I gotta tell you, it's a life-changing event.
And an air filter that won't quit. It's fabulous.
Well the the biggest thing down here was really one of the smallest spaces. We were able to put in a second bathroom thanks
Thanks to the technology of Saniflo.
Which uses macerating pumps to allow us to locate the bathroom and the laundry room, all away over on the other side of the basement.
And so once we got all the mechanicals in place, we called Owen' s Corning Basement Finishing Systems in. And they did an amazing amount of work in just ten days. They had walls up here, that we then did not have to finish.
Yeah. That's the thing with that kind of a system. It's instant gratification, once you put it up together, you're done. And if you need to get behind the walls?
You can pull this stuff right off, if you need to.
You can pull the mouldings off and get back there. Yeah.
We actually had to do this little bump-out because we had a plumbing stack and a water meter in here. We had, we actually have our new water heater behind that wall. We have hidden all sorts things behind here, including the old field stone foundation walls, which I didn't know how we were going to finish this.
Right, yeah.
So it's a great solution.
You even, it's a Rinnai Tankless water heaters, so that's one of the reasons it fits behind the wall.
And then you've got a whole new entertainment center.
This is just other-worldly for me, but.
Basically, what we have here, on top of the Bose system that went in last week, which is an audio controller. We have a video controller from S1. It's the S1 Digital Media Center.
And I have the ability here to go through and look at my pictures. You know, I can put, download them from my camera and stick them on here. These are demo pictures right now but, you know, I can use it as wall paper if I want to.
Yes, it's almost like a giant screensaver that you can.
Right. So we can have a family slide show here.
Right. Exactly.
So, I can also back out of this, and I can watch live TV. Or I can record TV by using the guide to search for any program that I want to record, and scheduling it to record. It takes inputs from a lot of different sources and it has a probe It will control the cable box, and change the channel every time I need it to record a program. Ok. It'll store videos. It will store all kinds of movies.
If I wanted to store my DVDs on here, I could and sort them and search for them by title. I'm just really psyched to sit down and be able to watch it finally.
We've got these great new chairs to sit on from Bellow. This is a newly developed system.
Well, this is like you'd see in any, you know, real media center, home theater kind of set up. They're very comfortable.
Yeah. And they recline. If I move this for you, you can push yourself right back.
Oh, I'd rather not. It's alright. But then, the other thing that you had to deal with was the floor. We had a slab.
That was just a kind of irregular old concrete floor.
And as we learned, you want to keep the wood off the floor in a basement.
Right, so we did not put down any kind of a plywood under lament. We went with a different system that's made out of plastic.
This is a plastic tile that interlocks, and screws down onto the concrete and has a webbing underneath that lets any water that might get up in the slab, or get spilled from a broken appliance, God forbid, it'll run away from the flooring surface and never get the carpet wet.
And eventually get to the perimeter drainage.
And then the other big thing was that you still needed more storage 'cause...
You gave up the raw basement space for storage and that's where all of these...
Well. We decided to use slide-lock cabinets throughout this basement, and they were especially great in the workshop area, where we regained some storage. And used their great wall system for hanging tools. These are really easy to install and they come in lots of different sizes.
You know, we can keep a refrigerator in here if we really wanted to, but my husband, the musician, is finding a lot of great new space for his instruments, and he's been using this as a rehearsal space. He's really going to love this.
And we love the fact that there are two and a half inches of fiberglass between him and the neighbors. He's really going to love this.
Yes, so you have a got a pretty contained you can pretty well sound attenuated space.
And even if the kids are upstairs or, you know you have company upstairs you're still in a situation where you don't have to worry about.
The noise and you provided a corner back here.
This is his little office space.
So, he'll have a space to work instead of having to be all over the dining room table, as we are now.
I like that you've, you know, picked out accents for for the space, because it's a very neutral space.
And you've picked out accents that correlate with other things you've brought in here.
Yeah, the lamp core.
Well you can choose a million different things from their website, but the lampshades have a design that kind of relates to the flooring product that you put in.
Which is not a wall-to-wall carpet .
This is.
Yeah, no, this is from Binvitech.
This is a cut piece right here, but these are tiles of carpet that stick down with a tacky backing.
And I did this myself in the night, cause you can just turn them around and make different sorts of patterns with it and they all interlock.
So you can choose which pattern you want to make and just lay them out like tiles, but you don't have to use any adhesive, which is terrific.
We've got these great Sumo bean bags as well. They're enormous and the kids love to lounge on them, or play on them. And we even found a great fish tank that is only 4 inches deep, this Aqua Vista saved us space, even on the stairwell.
So, kids aren't home from school yet?
But, you're ready for them when they get here.
I will be.
Congratulations, I think you've done a great job of your own general contractor.
Thank you, Bob.
The family room has come up...
And we're out of time and out of project here, but next week we're starting a whole new story. Creating a, an in-law suite for an elderly parent.
Till then I'm Bob Vila. Thanks for joining us.

The complex cuisine of Malaysia
Malaysian food is the result of a delicious collision of three cultures. Beef satay, peanut sauce and prawn laksa paste - are classics in Malaysian cuisine.
Malaysian Beef Satay
|1 Tbsp
|Ground tumeric
|750 g
|Beef rump steaks, or scotch fillet
|1 Tbsp
|Ground cumin
|Lemon, zest
|1 tsp
|Fennel, (ground)
|1 tsp
|1 tsp
|1 Tbsp
|Peanut oil
Easy Peanut Sauce
|1 cup
|Coconut milk
|½ cup
|Unsalted peanuts
|Small red onion, finely chopped
|1 Tbsp
|Soy sauce
|1 tsp
|Brown sugar
|Lime, juice of
|Red chilli, (small)
Prawn Laksa paste
|Red chillies
|3 cloves
|6 cm
|Root ginger, piece, peeled and chopped
|1 stem
|Lemongrass, chopped
|Shallots, chopped
|1 tsp
|Ground tumeric
|1 tsp
|Ground coriander
|2 Tbsp
|Water, hot
Malaysian Beef Satay
- Cut the beef into 3cm cubes. Combine the other ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Add the beef and marinate for at least an hour.
- Thread the pieces of meat onto skewers. If using bamboo skewers, soak them in cold water while the beef is marinating so they won't burn as the meat cooks.
- Grill over a heated barbecue or under the preheated grill until the meat is crisp and golden at the edges.
- Splash a little water over during the cooking, as the steam will ensure the meat cooks through. Serve immediately with the following sauce.
Easy Peanut Sauce
- Heat the ingredients in a saucepan over a medium heat, stirring gently until it comes to a simmer.
- Remove from the heat and reserve. To serve, gently reheat. Wine match: chardonnay.
- I have always loved the idea of laksa, the soup that's full of spices, herbs and interesting ingredients.
- A genuine Penang laksa involves a complex paste, but I've made a simplified version so you don't have to chase the exotic ingredients.
Prawn Laksa paste
- Put all the paste ingredients into a food processor or spice grinder and blitz until a paste forms. (Even better, pound everything in a mortar with the pestle.)
- Heat the oil in a saucepan and when hot, add the paste. Fry for a minute or two over a medium heat until it becomes fragrant. Do not allow it to darken.
- Add the coconut cream and stock and simmer gently for about 10 minutes, then add a little water if it has reduced at all.
- Season with the fish sauce and lime juice, adding salt if necessary. Add the prawns and simmer for a further minute until cooked.
- Meanwhile, cook the noodles in boiling water until soft. Heat 4 laksa bowls, and divide the noodles between them.
- Ladle the soup into the bowls and add the tofu and eggs. Top with the sprouts, chillies, cucumber and herbs and serve at once.

SACO – It's do-or-die time for the Saco Drive-In.
In this July 2011 file photo, cars are lined up to watch the latest Harry Potter movies at the Saco Drive-In. As movie studios move away from 35 mm film and firmly into the digital age, the nation's second-oldest drive-in theater faces the prospect of being left behind.

Ry Russell, who runs the Saco Drive-In, says this old film projector that has to be replaced with a digital projector at the cost of about $90,000 if the theater is to survive. Photographed on Wednesday, Feb. 13, 2013.

As movie studios move away from 35 mm film and firmly into the digital age, the nation's second-oldest drive-in theater faces the prospect of being left behind.
Without a digital conversion that could cost as much as $90,000, the drive-in theater will have to retire its giant screen, said Ry Russell, the Saco native who runs the summer theater.
Faced with the "heartbreaking" prospect of closing the theater, which opened in 1939, Russell said he is turning to the community for help in saving a local landmark.
"This is a lot bigger than this theater," Russell said. "This is one of 10,000 theaters struggling to stay above water."
Movie studios plan to stop producing the large reels of 35 mm film that theaters like the Saco Drive-In have used for decades. Theater operators say they don't know exactly when the distribution of film reels will stop, but they expect it will happen this year.
While larger, chain-operated movie theaters have already converted to digital, many small independent theaters now face a deadline to move away from film and into digital technology. That's a challenge for them because the new equipment costs tens of thousands of dollars.
"Larger theaters converted to digital a few years ago," said John Tevanian, owner of the Bridgton Twin Drive-In. "Once they did that, the writing was on the wall: If you plan on being in this business for more than a year or two, you have to convert to digital."
Tevanian has started converting his two-screen drive-in, but said the entire process will take until next year. This year, he is constructing a new building to house the digital equipment he plans to have by the start of the 2014 season.
He estimates that the conversion will cost $130,000 -- plus at least that much for the new building. He is confident that he will be able to get movies on 35 mm film for all of this season, which runs from spring to early fall.
Tevanian said 83 percent of the movie screens in the country have already been converted, and 90 percent are expected to be digital by the end of this year.
While most indoor theaters have made the switch, only about 10 percent of the country's 606 drive-in theaters have, according to the National Association of Theatre Owners.
Digital cinema provides consistent quality and is less expensive to produce and distribute, according to the association.
The conversion is expensive and may not be the wisest investment, Tevanian said, but he couldn't just walk away from the drive-in that his father bought 40 years ago.
Fans of the Bridgton Twin Drive-In have offered to help raise money, but Tevanian said the best way they could help was by buying movie tickets. He turned down offers of donations and fundraisers.
"If I was going to stay in business, that meant I was all in," he said. "When I made the announcement on my Facebook page last year, I said to the folks (that) a sane person would look at the numbers and walk away. Sometimes you do things that perhaps economically aren't the smartest move, but you only live once."
The operators of the Prides Corner Drive-In in Westbrook could not be reached for comment.
The Saco Drive-In isn't the only Maine theater to ask for community help to cover the cost.
Jason Sheckley, owner of the Harbor Theatre in Boothbay Harbor, turned to the community to help with the one-screen theater's digital conversion.
Open since 2002, the independent theater is a "labor of love" that doesn't turn a profit, Sheckley said.

With more than 50 years of history behind us, LIAT (1974) Limited prides itself on being an innovative regional carrier. We are currently on course for further innovation with the introduction of advertising opportunities on the interior and exterior of our aircraft. Our Dash 8:100 and Dash 8:300 aircraft offer a captive audience of regional travellers of all age groups access across 21 destinations.
LIAT is offering advertisers opportunities for branding inside and outside the aircraft, these include meal service trolley, seat branding, over-head bin branding, tray table branding, ticket jackets and the exterior of the aircraft. These branding opportunities range from logo usage to full colour advertisements.
The following document outlines these specific opportunities in full details for your consideration.
Trolley Branding
During Flights with a duration of 45 minutes or more, Flight Attendants serve refreshments to passengers via our portable refreshment trolley. The meal service trolley is cubed shaped with four sides available for branding, viewable to all passengers as the trolley is moved through the aisle of the aircraft.
Overhead Bins Branding
Each Aircraft is outfitted with between 10 to 16 overhead bins for the convenient storage of passenger carry-on luggage. The door to the overhead bin is a blank canvas ideal for one colour logo placement and messages that passengers will see on entering and exiting the aircraft as well as during the process of storing their luggage. The bins remain visible while the passengers are seated.
LIAT's Dash 8 aircraft offers either 37 seats or 50 seats. Each can be outfitted with branded head rest covers, carrying your logo. These head rest covers are available in various colours and are disposable, offering our passengers additional comfort.
Passengers on LIAT's aircraft are given cocktail napkins with each beverage served. These white napkins are ideal for logo branding and widespread exposure on our many aircrafts.
Ticket Jackets Branding
Everyday throughout the Caribbean, tickets are purchased for travel on LIAT. With the purchase of a physical ticket, passengers are given ticket jackets to keep their documents secure. These ticket jackets present an opportunity for widespread visibility as they would be available in each of the 21 countries LIAT services. The back covers of these jackets are ideal for company logos or full coloured ads.
Airplane Steps Branding
Everyday passengers on LIAT ascend a flight of stairs, attached to the aircraft. The outward facing surface of each stair can be branded with your logo for maximum exposure to each passenger boarding the aircraft.
Using a vinyl coating, LIAT offers the option to cover our aircraft with your branding. Whether it's a new product launch, an anniversary, or simply your logo, your company can be represented throughout the Caribbean skies and seen in the 22 regional airports that LIAT services. The plane is visible not only to boarding or disembarking passengers but also to passengers of other airlines awaiting departure.

The case of a former Boy Scout leader, accused of sexually assaulting a child, is going forward.

Investigators said Watkins abused a scout in 2005.
Watkins is being held without bond at the Albemarle-Charlottesville Regional Jail. His trial is set for April 2.
