Beadboard Backsplash & wood hood- your thoughts?
Although I'm not up to the backsplash (demo hasn't even started) I am "pre-planning" and wondering what you think about beadboard backsplashes?
Are they difficult to clean (grooves)? I assume they are less expensive than tile or am I wrong?
In my inspiration photo, I love the cottage look it gives but wonder if I should just do a white subway tile?
We may put beadboard in the glass cabs or maybe one of my fabrics...
Also we are doing a wood hood so I wasn't sure if beadboard would be a problem behind the cooktop? I should say in my inspiration photo Betsy Speert the designer used a stainless backsplash & hood but since we are doing an induction cooktop I don't think that would look good. **Would a stainless hood and backsplash work if you don't have range???
Here is my inspiration photo and then my layout:
Ignore the windows and fridge style (below)... We'll also have some glass uppers somewhere in the "L".
Using some of these things...
Hi 2littlefishies
Love that photo and those fabrics! How about ceramic bead board ? It is easy to clean no problem if it gets wet. SusieQusie used it. I'm considering it since I don't want so much grout on the BS, it's already enough to deal with in the bathroom. I'm also ordering bead board from the cabinet company for three open cabinets. The fabrics would look great too. How would you put them in the cabinets so that you could change them out ? Mount them on a board or something similar ?
Here is a link that might be useful: ceramic beadboard thread
Oooh! Didn't even know that existed! I'll definitely check into it : )
I guess you'd use regular beadboard for the open cabinets?
Yes, I think the fabrics would get mounted to a board somehow...
Also wondering if the beadboard in the glass uppers should be white like my cabs or the same yellow using below... I'm thinking white and then putting in yellow accents (bowls, vases, etc.)
Not sure if you mentioned this before but will the glass be clear so that you can see the bead board? I wouldn't pay extra for the bead board if only you will see it. Check with the cabinet company and see what the upgrade "finished insides" look like. You may decide you don't need it depending on the glass and using that beautiful fabric.
I'm using English Flemish glass and had all white interiors(glass, wood door, open cupboard) finished inside. The bead board for the open cupboards/small pantry is expensive IMHO but it makes it look so finished. I know I didn't need to get the closed cabinets finished inside but they are uppers so more noticeable to potential buyers and me. I wanted them as bright as possible.
Wow! That ceramic beadboard is wonderful! Great find, SusieQusie...that's what I want in both bathrooms...and maybe the utility room, too :)
Fishies- Marcolo said something very true about your kitchen...it should always be cute. It's what fits your house and I think it's good advice. So, thinking with that idea in mind, I would say beadboard ceramic tile is perfect and I'd use wood beadboard in the glass upper cabinets, too.
I think the fabric (unless you find something more like a small gingham or narrow stripe) will be too bold for your cute kitchen. If you use the fabric pendant lights, I'd keep the fabric on the valances, cushions, pillows, etc...especially in the dining room. That will make that side feel more formal, even though it's all one big space. Just my two cents :)
jjdcl says she has beadboard with subways behind stovetop and sink. I'm curious to see the two together... Anyone have any pics??
Thanks lavender! I totally agree with you about the cute and I think the beadboard would be great! Now that I know about the ceramic I'm feeling much more inclined to go in that direction : ) Same for cabinets. We're on the same page. I asked Betsy Speert her opinion on several lights (thought she didn't post them on her blog) and the fabrics etc... Here was her response. I'm the first one.
PS- White beadboard in cabs, right? Then add yellow accent pieces? That's what I'm thinking anyway : )

I saw a really cute board and batten and tile backsplash in the Diamond Cabinetry catalog that I picked up at Lowe's. I have a small photo of it (which I hope will upload), but the catalog shows the entire kitchen. They tiled behind the range and the sink. There are DIY directions on the internet, and Houzz has a lot of board and batten photos, including a gorgeous bathroom done in it.
2littlefishes, We have a beadboard backsplash and wood hood in our kitchen with a ceramic cooktop stove. We have no problem with cleanup. Used BM Advance paint and it washes up beautifully.

oldhouse- Thanks! Yours is one of my favorite kitchens : )
mayflowers- thanks! I'm not too familiar with board and batten
a2gemini- No grout would be great!
OK, I think my question 3 posts up had to do with having a cap molding, but now I see that sometimes people don't have that. I do like the cap molding but maybe it depends where you are using it. I found some photos of various kitchens with beadboard and how it is treated differently.
Well 2littlefishes the backsplash decision is a big one. One down 50 more to go ! Are you using the wallpaper from the inspiration photo as Betsy suggests ? I'm not ready to order that BS yet, if you get a sample can you post how you like it ? Your idea about fabric inside the cabinets has gotten me thinking...
EATREALFOOD- Well, Betsy suggested using the yellow bird print as wallpaper, but it isn't wallpaper, it's FABRIC. So, I don't know. I don't have very much wall space so I may look for a wallpaper like she used in her photo. I just know my dh hates wallpaper and it's a pain to change out vs. painting.
I won't be ordering BS for quite awhile. But if I get any samples I'll let you know for sure! : )
***Under the cabinets, in the baking and L can I still use cap molding? I like the way it finishes off the beadboard but I see most of the pics I posted above doesn't use it.
I really like the 3rd pic I posted above (bananas/orange on counter). What kind of tiles are those over range? Maybe I can even do something like that over the cooktop? Although those are probably not easy to clean.
What do you think about Arabesque in my kitchen? To me, It is feminine and more interesting than subway. Would it work alone or even in a combo with ceramic beadboard-- like behind the cooktop? I just love it- maybe it's the formal/sparkly side of me trying to jump out!
Where's marcolo??????????
Hey 2littlefishies, I just read through here and wanted to let you know you can use fabric as wallpaper. I know one person who did it in her dining room, below her chair rail. I'm sure you can find directions on-line, but it involves a glue-water mixture that you paint right over the material.
The other thing you could do is tack the fabric in place or adhere it to a light thin foam board, cut to fit the back of your cabs, and pop it in there. Then you could swap it out for something else if you grew tired of it.
Here is the first of a b'zillion hits on google :) I'll just "paste" it here...
These days we've been searching around for removable or reversible design ideas. Not so much because we rent but because we have a hard time committing; we like knowing we can change our minds. This is the main reason we've avoided any kind of wallpaper. It's normally expensive, hard to put up an then, sort of permanent. But after reading about a way to make removable wallpaper our of fabric we already own, we're definitely warming to the idea, especially for a small area that would benefit from a little something something and not take 4 days to accomplish:
We've read rave reviews of mixing lightweight fabric with starch and applying it to walls. We don't have the courage to try this in an entire room, but for an accent wall or the space beneath a window, it could be perfect. And since the adhesive is starch, mixing a bit of water when you're done will help it pull right off.
lightweight fabric with a pattern and palette you love
(for some inspiration check out these etsy sellers, these eco friendly fabrics and this post on how to stamp your own fabric)
fabric starch
sponge or paint roller
To Install Fabric Wallpaper (Linit Craft Ideas):
1. Wash the wall to remove any dirt or film.
2. Measure from the floor to the ceiling and add a couple extra inches. Cut the fabric accordingly. If fabric has a design, be sure to match the design before cutting the next panel as when using wallpaper.
3. Pour starch into a clean pan or spray on if using stiffener (see Tip section if using spray stiffener). Apply starch to the top half of the wall with a sponge, paint roller or spray on if using spray stiffener.
4. Smooth fabric into place at the top of the wall, leaving about one inch to be trimmed later. Use push pins to hold the fabric temporarily in place. Apply more starch going down the wall as needed until you get to the floor, leave approximately one inch overlap at floor level.
5. Apply starch to the top of the fabric, brushing and smoothing the fabric in place to remove bubbles and wrinkles. Be sure the starch penetrates the fabric evenly.
6. Work your way down the panel, continuing to sponge or spray starch onto the wall, smoothing the fabric, and applying more starch.
7. Position the second panel, matching the design along the edge. Repeat steps.
8. Around windows and doors, leave a one inch overlap as with the ceiling and floor.
9. Fabric overlap should be cut when the fabric is completely dry. It will then cut clean and easily and any shrinkage will have occurred before you trim.
To Remove Fabric From Wall:
Peel one corner loose, then gently begin to peel the fabric off of the wall panel by panel. If the fabric does not peel easily, dampen the fabric with water using a wet sponge and it should come right off.
Has anyone tried this? Have any tips to share?

Here are some of the other reversible design ideas for renters we've posted on Apartment Therapy.

Fishies- I do not agree with this Betsy person...that fabric is beautiful, but too strong a pattern, for all your walls. I would use the patterns in the dining room and maybe the yellow/birds, for the kitchen valance. Think cute, cottage, cape cod...not old world, castle, elaborate. Too many over the top details and you'll lose your cute/cottage look. And, I wish Marcolo would chime in, because he's the one who recommended this look for your house! :)
As for fabric on walls, this is usually done in formal dining rooms, ladies' dressing rooms, maybe a study...places where the fabric won't get greasy or dirty too easily. Sarah Richardson used fabric in her farmhouse remodel (for the dining room) but only on the top 1/3 of the wall, because she didn't want handprints on the fabric. Here's a picture... From Farmhouse plans
Hi lavender
I agree. Not doing fabric and I'll use it for window treatments and accessories (placemats etc)
I think beadboard inside cabs will be better than fabrics as well.
Is the arabesque tile of the question? one of my words is "feminine "
And I don't think it's over the top?
I adore that beadboard tile- I am still sad that I saw it only AFTER I installed my backsplash. It is still my back up plan if I ever get the chance to pull out the tile that I put in. I think it would look amazing with the look you are going for in your kitchen 2little!
To me, the beadboard tile works better for you than real beadboard. Personally I hate seeing Victorian-era beadboard slapped up in postwar houses. The tile is sort of a twist on it, though, which freshens it.
Grab some samples, put the beadboard behind you and move on to looking for an alternative backsplash tile. Then when everything is installed you have ideas and options at the ready, and won't come screaming on here yelling, "O no! I forgot to pick a backsplash!"
I would not like to see the bird fabric right behind your drum shade, btw. In the other thread I suggested it for draperies, which I think would be OK because it's a smaller expanse.
Thanks marcolo-
Is the arabesque a possibility? If not , subways?
Also regarding bird fabric the kitchen window is behind the island. Are u saying that won't work bc you wouldn't want to see the bird and the drum damask print close to each other? Not sure of your point there.
I am also exploring doing the pendant in the medallion fabric I have. (or the birds?). Would you suggest doing the kitchen balance in the yellow bird, let's say and the drums in the medallion or other of my fabrics?
Fishies- I like the arabesque, but not for your kitchen. It's old world again (IMHO) and doesn't fit your cottage style. I think you need to look at each element and say...would this work in a cottage home? Granted the marble and some of the fabrics are a little fancier, but I think you have a 'fancy cottage' style :)
However, the more you get away from your basic idea, I think you start to lose focus...and it will seem a bit thrown together. Subway tile is a possiblity, but I think the ceramic beadboard tile would be my first choice. I'd use it in my kitchen, if I didn't already have my 'bunny tile' (LOL) but it's my first choice for the bathrooms!
knemb- They are Joel Dewberry Fabrics-- Aviary2.

lavender- gotcha on the arabesque. I guess b/c I don't see Bee's kitchen as old world... but I know what you're saying. I think it's pretty so thought it might work.
"Fancy Cottage" I like that! BUT, I know- no dancing candlesticks!
I'm going to go to a store by me tomorrow that says they have ceramic beadboard. A Different one said they did but when I went it wasn't right. It was wide planks- definitely more for a bathroom.
Love your bunny tile- I hope you bought some so it doesn't get discontinued on you!
Thanks- Hope I'm not making you nuts. I just like to explore various options so in the end I can feel confident that I thought it all through : ) no fear there I guess!
This place will make a shade with any of my fabrics if I should decide to go that route...

I love the look of beadboard in a kitchen. I had an ugly popcorn ceiling that I removed and covered with beadboard. I am also going with a beadboard backsplash above a 4 inch granite strip. My cabinet doors have beadboard panels. It has a cottage look to it.
I like dancing candlesticks! Especially when they have a French accent :)
Actually my 'bunny tile' artist passed away, before I even found the tile, online. I'm going to use it as an inspiration for my artist friend...when I get to the point that I want to paint tile. I wish I had the talent to paint it myself.
Just Shades was on Saturday Night Live years ago, along with Just Bulbs.
I'd seriously consider a custom shade from the same fabric line. Remember you need a diffuser on the bottom. Of course I do this the cheap way--I bought cheapo shades and glued Japanese paper from Paper Source on them. They look great but getting the seams and roll-overs right almost sent me on a rampage through Michael's.
That wood fabric is kind of cool--keep that in your pocket if you need a less busy pattern somewhere.
Also, bring home samples of wider planks. I was just going to suggest that--maybe it will look like a fresh take on knotty pine panelling without the ugly parts. Remember, your house was built in the 1950s, not the 1850s or the 1750s.
Yes, That's what I'm thinking. Getting my drum pendants and getting them re-done in one of my fabrics. I'm thinking the medallion and then maybe the bird for the window valance, but lmk if you don't agree.
The pendants are from Lamps Plus and you can choose one of several designs. It's a computer generated print that is on a very heavy paper/board and then they glue it onto a plastic form (shade) and put edges on it. Looking at the one I have I could probably take it apart myself.
Also went to tile store who had some ceramic beadboard and a couple of other things. I'm thinking of what I can put behind the cooktop if I don't continue the beadboard (it's only 20" high and then there is a seam)... The salesperson mentioned doing a slab of my Danby marble under the hood.
Another brand:
Oh my gosh...I love this tile! So much for the bead board! LOL From Cottage house plans
And this is my choice for the light... From Cottage house plans
And favorite fabrics...starting with the bird fabrics. From Cottage house plans From Cottage house plans
Then the flowers... From Cottage house plans
And for a little 'fancy' for your 'fancy cottage' style. From Cottage house plans
The other ones are nice, but might be too traditional/old world...but used in smaller amounts, might make nice accent pillows. These are my favorites, though :)
Ha! Too funny! The salesperson showed that to me when I mentioned the possibility of using tin squares under the hood... She say, "Oooh, I have something that may work!" She meant in between the beadboard though.. She actually thought the beadboard was a good direction and helped steer me away from anything too glam.
I love the bird fabrics too! I really like the black b/c it's so striking but I think it may be too dark for the lights. Maybe somewhere small. We shall see!
Thanks for your thoughts : )
Fishies- I thought about painted tin ceiling tiles for your backsplash...but thought it would be too much work and might not be easy to clean. That explains why the tiles look so good. I think they go beautifully with your fabrics and you do seem to like some curves, rather than all straight lines. Me, too!
I think the black bird fabric would be very pretty, especially in the dining room. If you bring in more black, I think this fabric would look great, on some cushions. From Cottage house plans
As for your upper cabinets, rather than add beadboard or fabric...why not paint the backs yellow? Then you'll bring up the yellow from the lower cabinets and any dishes will look good. Eaiser, cheaper and a nice splash of color! :)
So, you'd say (at this moment, but I won't hold you to it!) to do the square tiles everywhere- no bead board? They are beautiful but I didn't know if they were too fancy like the arabesque. I can see now though that the square shape with the curvy lines could work. : )
Maybe I could do the black bird fabric on the window seat cushion : )
I've been thinking a lot about those upper- especially with regard to color. I was first thinking yellow beadboard like the way the color is added here (but yellow)
However, I am leaning towards keeping a white beadboard b/c I might rather add yellow accents on the shelves and if I do yellow background that will be too much. I am doing dishes in a drawer so won't really put dishes unless I find a couple of pretty ones just for display. Some ideas...
These aren't my things... just photos-- except for the colander : )
BTW, the 6'6" window will be counter height so no backsplash there and the cabinet to the left of the fridge MAY come down to the counter with an appliance garage.
Actually I like the black on the shade. And those tiles LL pointed out are da bomb. Keep them in the pile. You know that putting beadboard in your house is naughty, don't you?
Are you having cutout valances, over either windows or bookcases? You both need and deserve them. Don't make them too Victorianified or Frenchified--make them cute and sweet.
marcolo- I didn't until yesterday. But everyone keeps saying to go with bead board : ) lol If you have any other pics of directions to go that would be fun.
Doing valances over kitchen window and bay window seat in dining area but have no idea yet what they'll look like but figured I'd use my fabrics. What does a "cutout" valance look like?
It's one room-- here's a reminder--- The windows on the right wall are small awning windows that will be up higher over banquette:
PS- So glad we're "talking" again, marcolo. So is lavender... LOL
As I said, I'm a lot happier to see the BB tile than I would actual BB. But those damask tiles are really cool, and might echo some of your fabrics as long as everything doesn't get too crazy.
Cutouts? Look at your inspiration pic, at the top of the open shelf cabinet. Cutout. I was talking about wooden valances rather than fabric. I thought you were doing a curved wooden valance over the sink window or something?
OH, yes I was thinking of that a while back but then thought against it but nothing has been decided in stone! I thought the arch was a "no-no" and then a decorator mentioned just doing a fabric window treatment there. Also the window is about 6 1/2 feet so it would be kind of large.
The price my cabinet maker quoted included doing a wooden valance so that's not an issue.
I'll take a look at some and post so you can lmk what you think. Would I put fabric behind it?
You don't have to use wooden cutouts. I would just avoid straight-line wooden valances, if you do have any wooden valances. But girly wooden cutouts fit the cottagey vibe and are also very appropriate for your house style.
Crossville also has a nice bead board tile. I used it in my bathroom. Scroll down to the Savoy series.
Love reading about your kitchen and looking forward to seeing it finished.

redlover- thanks! I can't wait until it's finished either. Actually, can't wait til it starts! ha!
Hey guys- I have to choose a fabric for a custom banquette piece I'm going to have made. "My" fabrics are just quilt/curtain fabric. I assume they wouldn't be the best for a piece of furniture that will be used to sit at regularly and for eating as well. I'll have to find something else I guess for that. Maybe a stain resistant/sunbrella something in a solid color?
Here's the piece... it will be about 8' long. I though it would be nice under the awning windows instead of a built in bench. (The bay window will have a window seat).
Fishies- Sorry I missed your earlier post...I do love the tile and think you should use them! I will commit to them if you will! LOL From Cottage house plans
It's more like a floral and curvey, but not too formal. The arabesque seems more 'old world' and I think it would have looked beautiful in your original kitchen. I liked those pendants, too...but it's a different style. You're still keeping the curves but they're softer and more informal...but still a little fancy. Does that make sense?
That being said, the beadboard might be too 'linear' in your kitchen. I really like that first yellow glass vase you showed...and I think that would be beautiful...but maybe just have a white background, not beadboard.
I like the bench! The sunbrella fabric is a great idea and I like the yellow or soft cream color, to pick up the colors in your other fabrics.
Too bad about the cabinet guy...but maybe you'll get some great 'cottage ideas' from your new interviewees :)
Thanks lavender! I have another tile place to go to so I'm going to see if I find some that are similar to the one above just for some options. I also didn't ask the price of them but why should that matter? lol : ) I see what you mean about the arabesque and the previous inspiration kitchen and this one being more informal but still some fancy.
Would you say my kitchen will be similar to my present inspiration but less cottage? Or, maybe more fancy cottage? lol The beadboard seems to work well in the inspiration photo, no?
OH-- one more thing, I love turquoise with the yellow but am scared to scatter that into my accent pieces as my fabrics don't have any aqua... What do you think? Add turquoise or just stick to yellow (with my fabrics)

Went to a different tile store today... nothing too exciting but here's a couple...
Some faux marble bead board... Comes in bead board like the pic but didn't have the sample...
... and I loved the tiny sparkles that this gives off : ) Can't tell here though!
AND, my decorator (who I admit I'm barely using to save some $, but who needs it when you gave GardenWeb?? : ) ) dropped off a new book of yellow/gray fabrics!!! woo-hoo!!! fun weekend ahead!!!
Fishies- Hi! Sorry I missed your latest posts. Has your decorator dropped off any yellow and turquoise fabrics? Have you seen any that you really liked? How about some teal or greens?
And...I still like the 'floral' tile the best! Very pretty and perfectly wonderful, in your fancy/cottage kitchen :)
Oh, and I started looking for some fancy/cottage fabrics that would look nice in your space...so far, I really like this dragonfly fabric. What do you think? Here's a link, too. From Cottage house plans

Do you like either of these fabrics... From Cottage house plans From Cottage house plans
hi Lavender- thanks! Love the bird cage-- so pretty : )
I also really like the fabrics but I feel like they are a little too cottage for me. They are very pretty but I like my original fabrics b/c they give the kitchen a little more of a contemporary feel & I'm going to make sure not to overdo them.
If I add a secondary color it would be the turquoise. I love green but right now I have a lot of brown and aqua/turquoise in the LR and those colors would work well if I added to kitchen as well. as it is now, I'm a bit concerned (too strong of a word) b/c the kitchen/DR have the yellow, some black/gray and the walnut top - which doesn't really "match" my LR furniture and curtains especially. The couch & loveseat which we are keeping another year or two until we can finish the basement are brown with aqua and so are our window treatments, OH- and the 2 pieces of wood furniture- desk and buffet so I can't really change the LR.
However, now that the LR/DR and being separated by the french doors and panels I think it makes it a bit more okay for them not to match perfectly... I hope. I'm thinking maybe I can use the same color paint in both to bring it together... maybe...
I'm keeping the dining room table for now and recovering the chairs to match the window treatments and bench. I'll see how it works with the bench being it's not a console table, but I can always change it later.
What do you think? Do you think the kitchen/dr can be one scheme and the LR another?
Fishies- I know! That bird cage just grabbed me. Way too fancy for most of my spaces, but maybe in the master bathroom.... :)
These are probably too cottage for you, too...but I'll post them, just in case. From Cottage house plans From Cottage house plans
This one is a little more contemporary...and has blue, if not turquoise. Difficult to tell, on my monitor. Just in case you do like it, I attached the link, below. From Cottage house plans
And this one reminds me a bit of your picture, in the living room... From Cottage house plans
As for the style in the living room and kitchen/dining room...as long as they relate to each other, IMHO, they can each have their own personality since they're separated by the French doors. Similar, but not necessarily the same...does that make sense?
I LOVE your dining room chairs...the table, too...but those flowers, on the chairs are so cute! Of course, I'd probably paint them (gasp!) or refinish them a lighter color...to work in my kitchen. Let me know if you decide to replace them! LOL
Here is a link that might be useful: Link to dahlia fabric
OK, since we're on the turquoise subject several weeks ago I was thinking if I should bring in the turquoise and came up with a bunch of inspiration photos. My DH said it reminded him of an easter egg. lol Also, I seem to get a retro feel with these colors. I love them and they are fun but may be a little too... themed? I think I may tire of it quicker and it's further away from my original inspiration in my mind... hmmm I'm thinking the bird fabrics I love may just be a better choice..
Ooh, missed your post as I was cutting and pasting all of my links!
I actually like all those fabrics : ) Maybe something about a dragonfly was throwing me off but I love flowers and birds! oh, actually looking again the 3rd is too contemporary for me. I LOVE the 4th one : ) Do you have a link to that?

SO cute!! Thanks!
I went to the Joel Dewberry site (makes "my" fabrics) and he had another line with some yellow and turquoise... Some of the patterns aren't so great but I really like this one, what do you think??? And maybe one of the others might coordinate.
,... and if you like orange..
OK, I need to get to bed! my head is spinning : ) PS- Did you read my long one above with all the turquoise/yellow pics?
This is fun! I actually like the orange floral...it's very pretty and the white background seems to balance out the turquoise. The first floral is also pretty, but the darker shade of turquoise seems a little too intense...same thing with the third and fourth fabrics. Any other fabrics that have the softer turquoise and yellow, like in the orange floral?
If you do decide to use the orange, then the yellow and white underneath it would look great...and if you use 'the tile' then the other yellow and white would look really good, too. Otherwise, it might be a bit too much.
Do they have any other bird fabrics? Maybe something with the turquoise? Wait...I just remembered seeing (I think) your bird fabric, with some orange. Let me see if I can find it.
Here it is...autumn sparrow fabric (bottom, left). From Cottage house plans
If you are using the bench fabric shown (which I like) then those branches in the bird fabric may pick that up.
You know, if those oranges do match...then the turquoise could be your third color. That would be perfect, so you could bring in some of the dishes you like, above. Like those little bowls and maybe some canisters.
Yellow, orange and turquoise would be very cottage (IMHO) and the fabric line that you like definitely brings in the fancy. I think you're on the right track! :)
I have to choose a fabric for the bench. The autumn sparrow fabric doesn't have yellow. It's creamy beige I think. Here are the only others I could find.
The site is : http://www.joeldewberry.com/ Just click under "collections"
Wow! Those are pretty :)
If you choose the bird pattern, with the yellow background and orange flowers for your bench, I think the beige (autumn) bird pattern would also look good as an accent fabric. Just like the yellow and black bird patterns worked together, in that collection.
I really like the orange floral, but I'm not so sure about the stripes. Are there any other fabrics that have a little beige, besides the bird fabrics? Maybe as an accent pillow or two?
Here are my favorites...what do you think? From Cottage house plans From Cottage house plans From Cottage house plans From Cottage house plans From Cottage house plans
And again, I think this one works, if you choose the fancy tile :) From Cottage house plans
Sorry, this striped fabric. It would look good and it has the beige, which works with the bird fabrics. Any fabrics with beige and the light aqua/turquoise, together? I'll try to check the website, later, too :) From Cottage house plans
The 2nd bird one doesn't seem quite right to me with the yellow background bird one as much as it does with the yellow/grey/black group. Actually it could be fine, but I'd have to make sure the oranges are the same and I think they may not be.
I'm not crazy about the big orange flowers (2nd to last) but love the last yellow one. (It's called tiled or something) I also think it would be great with the fancy tile which is what I'm leaning towards: )
I'll see if I can get some samples. The yellow background bird one has been discontinued say may be hard to find. Also, I wonder if that yellow will work as well as the more gold yellows here.
... and now I'm finding myself secretly longing for these again : ) (don't kill me!) lol I'll have to mull this all over and see some fabrics IRL...
I'm going to order some samples today. That will definitely help me straighten these out : ) I do really like the orange yellow as well. I can't seem to find the perfect mix of everything. lol Yes, check out the website if you get a chance...
(as if you have nothing better to do...) lol Maybe you'll find some bunnies! ha
Oh, you definitely need samples! I do like the aqua/turquoise and orange, more than the gray...but what matters is what YOU like :)
I think you're right about the autumn birds, though...maybe the dark brown is what's not matching. For some reason, I forgot you were redoing the bench and thought you were using that 'oatmeal' color...so that's why the beiges would work.
Also, have you gone to the fabric store and looked at the custom fabrics from Waverly and other companies? They have a lot more choices, than what you see on the rolls, back in the designer fabric section. They often come in collections, too! From Cottage house plans
OK, I ordered a bunch of samples! I'll show you some of them...
At this moment, I'm thinking I should perhaps stick to a yellow and white fabric and then I can still add in aqua accessories here and there if I want. Also, in looking at my inspiration pic, one of the things I loved about it was the soft look it has. I think the yellow cabs will be a big statement as far as color (especially where I live-- LOTS of white white kitchens...) and when thinking about adding orange or other bright colors to the window treatments it just isn't what I had in mind.. I even worried about my original yellow/gray birds being too disruptive but maybe I liked that that color scheme b/c it was a little more subdued?
Anyway, if I don't do the yellow/gray/black scheme maybe I'll stick to yellow and white. If I do SOME of these fabrics I could leave my pendants as they are instead of changing fabric on the shades.
Pic not great but I think this is really cute : )
Some with color...
The yellow like this is above:
Hi Fishies! I like the last four yellow/white ones, starting with the bird/floral, above the 'dandelions'. I think you have the right idea about keeping the fabrics fairly neutral and then adding your color, with the accessories.
Of course, if you really like any of the fabrics with the 'blue birds' you could use those for cushions/pillows and other accents that you could change, seasonally. I think the yellow and white will look good in spring/summer/fall and can you imagine some dark green, red and gold...for Christmas? Maybe even a little silver? :)
lavender-- (as if anyone else is reading this- lol)
I couldn't make sense out of which ones. You said the last 4 yellow/white but if I start with the one above the dandelions, that is 3 not 4?
I really like the one above the dandelions but I think the one above that goes well with the pendant shade. The "tile" one is nice too.
I don't love dandelions but what I love about that one is that there's so much white. I'd like to find one where the white is dominant....
Some coordinating dandelion prints-- They have what they call "girly blue" and "true turquoise".
I got a bunch of fabrics and really love the little blue birds. Unfortunately the dandelion fabric is more orangey than I'd like.. However, still might work?
oldbat2be- I found out the tile you like (and the other one I like) are both from Wizard Enterprise. http://www.wizardenterprise.com/
I think yours is "Iron Grate" or Gate?
Here are more of the tile... I guess you can make different patterns out of it and these are the same tiles but patterned differently. Actually in looking again I'm wrong-- I guess it just looks different when there is a wall of it : ) It comes in about 60 colors! The I I show actually has a green glaze on it.
Here is the Wizard Catalog. The one I like is called Ribbons & Feathers
Here is a link that might be useful: WIZARD CATALOG
Fishies- Sorry, I missed your last post...I also really like this last picture! The curtains are so delicate and light...and I think the little yellow and white/blue bird fabric would be wonderful for your pendants!
I think these fabrics are more cottage-like and you can still use some of your fancier fabrics, in the dining room. And of course, I love 'our' tile! :)
I really like the yellow and white/blue bird pattern. I think if you want to pick up any more blue...I'd choose that blue, over the turquoise. But, for dishes, accessories, etc. the turquoise might look very nice. I just wouldn't put it in the fabrics, so you have the option of changing it, later on.
So, you'll 'probably' have white, wood, yellow, gold, blue and maybe some green with plants and herbs. Sounds like your space might be more colorful that you thought! And quite the charming, cottage kitchen :)
... and don't forget fancy! lol
I agree about the blue. I went to Anthropologie today to look at some of those little accessories (jars, sugar bowl, etc) in yellow and aqua and brought the blue bird fabric. Most of them worked well but some of them were too green. It's a pretty blue. I don't think I'll do any other fabrics with turquoise- just if I find a good blue like the birds. It's sooo cute. I love it! My mom loves it too and agrees these work better than the original yellow/black/grey ones. Other ones I showed her she said were too french/formal. She has a good eye for decorating : )
The little bird fabric might be busy for the 6' window but that's why I thought maybe for the lights and then white with a bit of yellow (maybe the pom poms) for the window.
I get the dandelions tomorrow (fabric) in the turquoise and girly blue. I think the print is too large though compared to those cute little birds. Maybe in the DR though if I do pillows. We'll see!
I liked the tile even more today. They gave me 4 to take home woo-hoo!

As I said, all the evals do (I -believe-) is to add the lambda into the python dictionary with a specific name for getattr to find (I am probably horribly mangling pythonic terms here, and I apologise). I have read in numerous places that python's eval is hysterically slow, and I think that this is somewhat borne out.

I tend to get rather lost in python black magic as I said (sorry :). This said, stating python 2.5 as a 'baseline' is not a -bad- idea. It's been out in one form or another since sep 2006.. that's not exactly cutting edge ;) I am still wondering though, can't we simply look into the python object's dictionary and place functions into there ? if there is an existing _SO_get_Blah and a user defined _SO_get_Blah then can't python rename the existing one and then include a call at the end to the newly placed one onto the end ?

Rated 3.9 out of 5 by 445 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by JenAddy12 This is the place to stay on the Seacoast I travel to Portsmouth regularly on business and while there are plenty of new hotels popping up I much prefer this property. The ambience is cozy and the staff are wonderful! Within walking distance to everything Downtown, yet quiet and relaxed. December 21, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Docnad67 FEELS LIKE HOME The Sheraton Portsmouth Hotel feels like home; the staff is AMAZING...we miss them already and I truly wish all Sheraton staff around the world would be as friendly and warm as this place! Every stay and we come every summer, has been memorable! August 27, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by ims504 Love the Sheratons Have stayed at many Sheratons. Portsmouth one of our favorites. Beds and pillows are soooo comfy. Pouring the night we were there so we ate in at the restaurant, Excellent meal and service. Free dessert with our check in. Can't wait to go back! October 2, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Janet12 This hotel is beautiful! We had a wedding to attend that started at 3:00 (not on the premise) so we were hoping to get into our room earlier than the 3:00 check-in time. The staff made it happen! We were so pleased. And made it to our niece's wedding on time! Thanks! September 23, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by cate43 Nice hotel Convenient hotel, very beautiful layout. Our complaint was that it was very loud. You could hear everything going on around you. Also disappointed that the pool was closed, my fault for not checking that. Otherwise a nice hotel for the area. July 23, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by cadillacmama This hotel has a good location The staff were very helpful and friendly. Our room was very small but was adequate for our stay. The location of the hotel was great as we could enjoy Portsmouth or drive in any direction and find interesting and charming places to explore. October 23, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by MarkyMark59 Location, location and comfort It is with great delight that we had a chance to enjoy a night away from our hectic lives and the Portsmouth Sheraton was the perfect setting. Great staff( Sarah) and front desk. Our room was just lovely. The seaport is at your door step August 9, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Ed220 Overall Comments on Stay This was our second visit to the Portsmouth Sheraton. Overall, we were quite satisfied with our stay in Suite #443. Our only "negative" is with respect to the fact that the parlor area is tired and worn and is in need of a renovation. November 12, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by sam501 Great place to stay Didn't know what to expect, but this hotel is top-notch. Great rooms, good food and above all a wonderful customer service oriented staff. They focus on the little things to make your stay memorable. Will definitely stay there again. February 17, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Wrea Wonderful Experience We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Everyone was friendly and courteous. The hotel is close to wonderful restaurants and shops. We walked to Prescott Park and enjoyed the beautiful gardens and watching the ships and boats on the water. September 23, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by HussMan Nice Stay My wife and I went to Portsmouth for some R&R and stayed at The Sheraton. It is located close to the action and was very comfortable. Service was very good. August 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by zookeeper63 Service Everything about this hotel is wonderful. Location, food, rooms especially the bed but most significant was the service. Each person wnt out of their way to make sure everything was taken care of. Staff were out going and friendly. March 25, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Jan51 very comfortable The only thing we struggled with was the TV which is advertising hotel and extremely difficult to get to regular TV stations. Reprogram for ease of customers please! Andrew was wonderful helping us with bags...just a nice guy October 31, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by marbro7114 This hotel staff was excellent Sarah from the front desk went above and beyond. She made a stay a memorable one. Great place to stay, close to the downtown area. The rooms we updated and very clean. Can't wait to come back and enjoy July 5, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by KVermont Exceeded our expectations This is was our second time at the Sheraton Portsmouth and it did not disappoint. The staff is attentive and helpful. The location is central to downtown so you can walk everywhere. The Club Level is well worth the upgrade. February 9, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by Disappointed12 Needs renovation The rooms desperately need renovation. Our bed was comfortable, but the bathroom was very old, grimy (not housekeeping's fault) and desperately needs to be renovated. The breakfast was excellent and the staff very friendly. June 10, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Jaymom A Beautiful Hotel We had a very short stay at this hotel and wished we had more time to enjoy it. The hotel is very beautiful and sits on a waterfront which was just so pretty. I highly recommend it and will most certainly stay there again September 30, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ca57 great staff All the staff at this hotel are amazing. The front desk staff, room attendants, wait staff, event planers everyone was wonderful. I happened to be there when there was a SPG recognition cocktail hour and it was fabulous. January 22, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Heather72 Great hotel and customer service! We had a wonderful experience at the Sheraton Portsmouth Harborside Hotel - the staff was so accommodating and friendly. Very convenient to downtown, comfortable room, nice pool and exercise facilities. Highly recommend! February 6, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by SP217 The stay was good BUT I had made a romance package reservation for the weekend of Valentine's day. The staff was very welcoming, first in the valet section then in the lobby. We were asked where we parked which was across the street in their parking area, which was an additional fee (and was not told that we would need our room key to get out of that parking lot) then we were given our keys and direction to the elevator and sent on our way. Now the romance package was advertised that sparkling wine, chocolates or fruit would be in the room at check in, ours was not. We had stepped out and when we got back they were there. The room itself was awkwardly angled that made the room appear surprisingly small. There is no sound proofing; you can hear everything from all sides. At the time of our weekend away, there was also another group of BC kids that were up at all hours and running around in the halls. I would have figured that maybe the hotel would have done a block of rooms away from the BC folks but they did not. Over all we have stayed at better hotels, and probably would not go back. February 18, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by StevieV Beautiful Hotel We enjoyed our stay and found the location to be convenient for travel in the area. The restaurant menu offered several good choices for dinner and our selections were delicious! The staff was very friendly and helpful. October 13, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by EricM New years Eve Great location for walking in downtown Portsmouth. Comfortable rooms and a good restaurant to eat at. So many restaurants within walking distance hard to choose. We ate at the Hotel for New years Eve excellent food. January 3, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by MM54 Great Service I've stayed here over the past 21/2 years and I am most impressed by the service staff. Wheher at the front desk, in the sales department, or houskeeping staff. They are extremely friendly and competent. May 28, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Blackjack Not comfortable Heater turned itself on and off all night no matter what setting. So much furniture jammed into small room made it difficult to navigate for two people. Nothing complimentary. $4.00 for a bottle of water? REALLY? February 11, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ginmart10 Our Suite was Amazing! We had a terrific 2 bedroom suite with a full kitchen, dining area , living room with a fireplace, 2 beds, 2 baths and a balcony. It was great for our family of 4. July 28, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Maine1 This hotel is a great location for touring Portsmouth Easy to get to. Attended a wedding and everything was wonderful from the staff to the food. Had a great breakfast the next day. Room was nice and comfortable. July 31, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by VicAlyce Nice location, but no Jacuzzi Good hotel, in a great area, however, after a long day of site seeing and much walking, it would be great to come back and jump in to a well needed jacuzzi. there also should be no parking fee for the guest. September 11, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by unhappy Disappointed This hotel was undergoing construction during our stay. It was very noisy. The sink was cracked and the shower faucet was crooked. Our ocean view was a view of the parking lot with a sliver of ocean behind. April 23, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Yolyg Excellent staff Everyone was extremely friendly, prompt, and had a great attitude September 7, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by rabbit1 This hotel was so dirty!! I would never stay at this place again. Room was incredibly dirty and outdated. Furniture has rips everywhere on every piece. Light switches and wall were dirty, door. Just yuck. So not worth the $389.00 February 24, 2014

The Honour Roll for the Tasman Municipality lists 30 men associated with the Peninsula who died in the First World War. Dr. Lysbeth Ford has researched their histories and will present her findings in this talk. James Parker has used this research to tell the story of the Australian involvement in the war. Lysbeth and James have presented this work twice before, and hope to do so again during the centenary of WWI, because, despite their presentation title, this is a tale of loss and sacrifice which must be told – in the hope that, one day, the message might be understood.
Dr Lysbeth Ford is a researcher, trained in Linguistics at ANU, with many years experience working with fluent speakers of endangered Aboriginal languages to document and maintain these languages and their music. She has published grammars and dictionaries of these languages. Secretary of the Tasman Peninsula Historical Society since 2011, she has co-curated several successful exhibitions, including Local Heroes. James Parker had a long history of work in theatre, films and events organisation in Australia and overseas but returned to his native Tasmania more than twenty years ago. Since then, he has done a double sentence at Port Arthur, both as a guide and in the café. He is a founding member of both the Convict Women's Press and the Female Factory Research Centre, and still does research work associated with the University of Tasmania.

The presentation will be an informal walk-through the history of the Coal Mines Historic Site but from a natural values point of view. The focus will be on the vegetation and an interpretation of its current state with a look back to historical use, including clearing and fire, and the importance of the reserve (and surrounding areas) to biodiversity, especially threatened species. The reserve is a critical breeding site for the endangered forty-spotted pardalote, a known foraging area for the endangered swift parrot, a key site for the endangered hairstreak butterfly, and a hotspot for orchids, including threatened species such as the tailed spider-orchid.
Mark Wapstra is a born and bred Tasmanian naturalist and environmental scientist. With a degree in Life Sciences from the University of Tasmania, followed by a stint as a volunteer lake biologist in Antarctica, he spent over a decade in the controversial forest industry as a government ecologist, before embarking on his own environmental consulting company, specialising in threatened flora and fauna, vegetation classification and conservation management planning. His "spare" time is spent as Editor of the Tasmanian Field Naturalists Club's annual Journal The Tasmanian Naturalist, undertaking self-funded research into Tasmania's threatened flora, especially orchids (a throwback to his youth hanging out the back of the car "orchid-hunting" with his parents and twin brother) and plant/wildlife photography.

In July 2008, UNESCO awarded World Heritage status to George Town and Melaka in Malaysia. George Town is considered to be of outstanding universal significance for its original urban morphology, architectural variety and a multiethnic, multicultural community. Raising the bar for the management of these two very important sites, the listing has had many positive effects. However, it has enhanced George Town's attractiveness for new development, and already resulted in a massive increase in property values, resulting in the displacement of many of the traditional activities. Those charged with the responsibility for its conservation will need to respond to these challenges.
The talk will consider challenges facing the George Town World Heritage area, and some of the measures that the local community has already implemented, as well as describe recent initiatives supported by AusHeritage to enhance local heritage expertise in managing future development.
Peter Romey has been working in heritage conservation for more than 25 years, both as a consultant and in government. He is a Partner at Godden Mackay Logan, Australia's largest independent heritage consultancy and from 1999 to 2006 was the Director of Conservation and Infrastructure at the Port Arthur Historic Site.

Alex softball: Dewanz's gem isn't quite enough against Apollo
The Alexandria softball team got a strong pitching performance from Kaila Dewanz on Tuesday night, but it wasn't enough to overcome 11 runners left on base in a 2-0, nine-inning loss to St. Cloud Apollo on Senior Night.
The two teams were scoreless until the top of the ninth when the Eagles led off the inning with a sharp single and a hit batter. That brought in reliever Taylor Ellingson to pitch, and the senior got the first two batters she faced with strikeouts.

I'm wondering if it is possible to totalize all products of the amount of scores for each photo multiplied by their score type factor in one SQL query?
t = total : my aim, the total score for each photo
c_foo = count score type foo = the amount of scores for each photo with the score type name = foo
c_bar = count score type bar = the amount of scores for each photo with the score type name = bar
m_foo = foo factor
m_bar = bar factor
The number of different score types is arbitrary.
t = c_foo * m_foo + c_bar * m_bar + … + c_last * m_last
My initial idea is to use the following table structure:
So far I have the following query:
SELECT p.id, st.name, st.factor, COUNT(*) AS count
FROM s2p_photo p
LEFT JOIN s2p_score s
LEFT JOIN s2p_score_type st
GROUP BY p.id, st.name
ORDER BY p.id ASC
I receive the name, factor and sum of photos but I'm not able to do the math.
I have no idea if
UNION is feasible here.
Is my table structure ok? Does anyone of you has a clue?
PS: Sorry I'm not able to post images; please open them manually in your browser :(

With parliamentary elections round the corner, political parties are making multiple promises to pull in votes. But, unfortunately, healthcare, which is one of the greatest challenges faced by the country, does not figure in their poll manifesto.
In a bid to remind these parties, the members of People's Health Movement released a health manifesto on the occasion of World Health Day here on Monday.
Releasing the manifesto, members of the movement said health is a right of every citizen and urged political parties to take steps to enact the Right to Health Act which assures access to good quality and comprehensive health care for all.
"While the Congress, Aam Aamdi party, and the left parties have included Right to Health Act in their priority list, others must also include it," said P. Rajamanickam, a member of People's Health Movement.
Further the members said that the Central government should increase public spending on health from a meagre 1.04 per cent of the GDP in the Eleventh Plan to 3 per cent by 2020.
Some of the other demands include strengthening of anganwadis and Public Distribution System in the country, enactment of the National Clinical Establishment Act that would promote genuine ethical health care providers and contain costs of health care provided by private hospitals, to ensure access to essential and safe drugs to poor and needy and to eliminate corruption in public health system by brining transparent policies for appointments, promotions and procurement of goods and services.
"The Centre and State governments should stop privatisation of health care facilities and increase investment in public health facilities since 90 percent of the population in India visits government hospitals for health care," said Bimla Chandrashekar, EKTA foundation.
On the Chief Minister's health insurance scheme, the members said it was a failure and said less than 25 per cent get benefitted from the scheme.
The money was being diverted to insurance companies and private hospitals, they alleged.

Id agree 2..d5 is probably the best way to meet it, though i still think white has a slight advantage, not that it matters..after all if i were chasing an advantage I wouldn't play the trompowsky in the first place.2..e6 im not so convinced by, white has a few option including 3.e4, after which play can be somewhat unbalanced and 3.nf3 transposing into torre lines, which is what I do, to keep the possibility of a complicated game open (hoping for spassky gambit, wagner, or the likes)
3.e4 after 2...e6 is a pleasure for Black- bishop pair, and a white center to work against.
3.Nf3 is more prudent, although white can hardly expect something resembling an advantage after that. Black has comfortable play after 3...c5 or 3...h6 4.Bh4 c5, and he does not even have to worry about any white space advantage.
2...d5 is good, but inflexible. White can play the standard Bxf6 plan followed by c4, Nc3, e3, g3, Bg2, Nge2, when he does not have any significant advantage, but at least Black does not have here handy the plan to expand at the queenside, which is normal in the analogous Veresov tabiyas.
@ Fear_Itself: I originally played 6...e6, but failed to get any advantage after a few tries. The continuation went something like this.......

I want to start fishing as hobby?
john.butcher98May 11, 2011
I want to start fishing a hobby to help me relax, but don�t know where to start. What kind of Equipment to us or what type of fishing to take up. I live in Kenai, USA and know of a few place where I can fish, just don�t know what I should buy to get me going.
I would suggest that you go through the fishing websites and see comments of the person who runs the business. They will surely provide you the details like what fish are being caught, where they are being caught, how people are doing it, and what equipment people are buying in order to do that. Take a visit and have fun.

McIlroy warns Watson not to target him, Poulter at GleneaglesSubmitted by Rajiv Dhoot on Thu, 09/25/2014 - 08:07
Johannesburg, Sep 25 - Northern Irish golf ace Rory McIlroy has warned US Ryder Cup team captain Tom Watson that he would be making a big mistake if the American asked his players to target him and Ian Poulter this weekend at Gleneagles.
McIlroy is the world number one and the talisman for the European team who would aim to make it six wins out of the last seven encounters with the Americans.
Fowler shocked at attention over 'U.S.A.' hairdoSubmitted by Rajiv Dhoot on Thu, 09/25/2014 - 07:37
Johannesburg, Sep 25 - American golfer Rickie Fowler, who finished in the top-five at every golf major this season, has reportedly been shocked at the attention he received for shaving ' U. S. A.' into his head ahead of the Ryder Cup.
Fowler, who has long been a fashion trendsetter with colourful outfits with his fashion style now spreading to hairdos, admitted that it has gone a bit crazier than he expected.
McIlroy says 'golf to remain his girlfriend' for 'foreseeable futureSubmitted by Rajiv Dhoot on Thu, 09/25/2014 - 06:33
London, Sep 25 - Northern Irish golf ace Rory McIlroy has said that golf is his girlfriend as he ruled out becoming involved in a relationship for the foreseeable future four months ago following his break-up with tennis' former world number one Caroline Wozniacki.
McIlroy split from Wozniacki in May, just days after invites for the couple's planned wedding were sent out and since then the golf ace has gone on to land back-to-back major titles.
Now, psychic tiger named 'Woods' predicts European win in Ryder Cup!Submitted by Rajiv Dhoot on Thu, 09/25/2014 - 06:08
London, Sep 25 - The sporting world has a new psychic, a tiger named 'Woods' after Paul the Octopus, Barry the Badger or whatever the last animal psychic.
Tiger Woods, like the former world number one Tiger Woods, is a golf fanatic and he has predicted that Europe would win this Ryder Cup instead of the Americans, The Independent reported.
Woods prediction is based on the fact that he fancied eating more chunks of meat placed on giant blue golf tees than morsels on giant red tees.
McDowell admits 'older brother, younger brother' dynamic with McIlroy has changed foreverSubmitted by Keval Sharma on Wed, 09/24/2014 - 05:34
London, Sep 24 - Graeme McDowell says that his dynamic with Rory McIlroy has changed forever since the latter won four major titles and the world number one ranking.
He said that the older brother, younger brother thing that the duo had was not the same any more, the BBC reports.
McDowell said that McIlroy was a four-time major winner and the world number one, adding that the dynamic between the two may have changed forever and that he needed that leadership role.
McIlroy relishing prospect of being European player that America will gun for at Ryder CupSubmitted by Keval Sharma on Tue, 09/23/2014 - 05:43
London, Sep 23 - World number one Rory McIlroy has said that he is relishing the prospect of being the European player that
America would be gunning for at this week's Ryder Cup at Gleneagles.
McIlroy might play all five sessions and the US Ryder Cup team is likely to feel early wins over the Northern Irish golf ace would
represent a psychological blow. He said that any time the opposition starts to talk about a player it is a huge compliment.
McGinley says Europe will not underestimate U.S. at Ryder CupSubmitted by Keval Sharma on Mon, 09/22/2014 - 07:44

-the British Open and the US PGA.

I'm trying to speed up my Magento store and have recently enabled Gzip compression. The problem is, i also use the Magento in-built function that merges all CSS and JS files together to serve a single file for each.
The Gzip does not compress those files & since this is Magento, those files are enormous and slow down the site significantly.
Anything i can do that Gzip will also compress those files? They are located in /media/js/ and /media/css/
