Sunshine Daaaay.
Our freshly painted laundry room makes me want to sing (and dance and dress) like this:
Yup, it's bright and happy in there. First I repainted all the trim (with Olympic No-VOC semi-gloss off-the-shelf white) and painted the annoying brown quarter round near the baseboards, so it blended in with the white trim. I applied three thin coats of the same Olympic No-VOC paint (no primer because I used the same method with success in the living room five months back and I'm lazy). Then when it came to the wall color, we decided to use the leftover paint that we used in the adjoining kitchen (remember when we painted that beastly paneling here?). Why that color? To brighten things up and connect the two spaces since you pretty much see the kitchen as soon as you step in the side door in the laundry room.
Since the laundry room is such a small space we knew a different color might interrupt the flow and make it feel a lot smaller than something that would connect slash elongate it. We might add a subtle stencil or some other paint treatment down the line if we want more mojo in there – but once we hang window treatments and a new dangly light fixture and add lots of other stuff (art, storage, etc) we're not sure if it'll be too much for the tiny room. So we're waiting on the whole stencil/stripe possibility.
Bee tee dubs (yes I just spelled out btw, and turned the w into a dubs) the color is called Sesame 381 by Benjamin Moore (color matched to Olympic's No-VOC paint in a semi-gloss finish). Our small semi-light-filled laundry room has a door and window that let in light from the carport, which isn't super bright but it's a lot brighter than our windowless kitchen. So the artichoke-ish grellow (green + yellow) tone:
- is a smidge brighter
- reads a little more yellow than it does in the kitchen
- is so insanely cheerful
We're psyched. Who doesn't love a happy little laundry nook? As soon as I started cutting in I knew it would wake up the whole space.
Here's what it looked like when we moved in:
And here she is now with a slap of how-you-doin'-on-this-fine-morning color (along with some other changes covered here):
Oh and if you're wondering what that white board is in the pic above and below, we heard setting stacked appliances on a nice thick piece of plywood that goes against all three walls can stabilize the machine for a longer life. So we did it. And I painted it white because when we add shelving to that side of the nook it'll blend in like chin hair on a mountain goat. Made that up. Think it's catchy? Nah, me neither.
Some of these photos look a little more neon and booger-ish than it does in real life. In real life there's zero booger resemblance and it's definitely not neon. Which is a relief. It's light and sweet – like liquid sunshine. And here's why we knew this room could handle some happy color:
- We'll add a ton of white shelving to temper the color (along with the white washer/dryer).
- It has a window & a glass door as well as a doorway into the kitchen to break things up.
- Eventually when we have wood floors in there it'll be even more subdued.
Oh and as for that crazy metal fuse box cover that we had going on – remember this?
We just rolled/brushed a few thin and even coats of paint right over it. Didn't even prime. We did that in our last house to hide a just-as-obvious one in the corner of the den – and four years later it still looked awesome. See if you can find it here. Metal actually takes thin coats of paint really well (like spray paint) so by being sure not to glob it on and opting to do more thin coats (as opposed to fewer thick and globby ones) I got some nice coverage. And it still opens and closes easily (tip: do that a few times between coats to ensure that things still work smoothly and nothing gets gummed up with paint). In short: thin and even applications = the painting holy grail.
Total spent for this phase of the makeover: $0 (thanks to trim and wall paint that we already had leftover from the kitchen). Wait, we did buy a pack of rollers so it was actually $8. Of course we still have plans for adding a ton of function (and a good dose of looks-nice stuff, like art) to the room – and that blank wall in particular. So that painted fuse box won't just sit there looking, well, painted. We'll share those details as we go.
As for the to do list, here it is as it stands today:
Paint the odd brown quarter round near the baseboards glossy white
Redo all the dinged up trim (also in semi-gloss white) Paint the walls
- Replace our dryer hose with a safer all-metal one
- Add adjustable built-in shelving in that nook next to the stacked washer & dryer <– we can't unstack them and put them on the long wall since the room is only 3.5′ wide so the doors wouldn't even open
- Replace the hinges and knobs on the upper cabinetry
- Get a new light fixture <- DIY something? maybe a small chandelier?
- Add a window treatment (maybe a homemade one?)
- Add other functional storage near the door for shoes, Burger's leash, etc
- Hang some art to keep it cheerful and obscure the giant metal fuse box
Mmm, crisp white trim might also be the painting holy grail. Doesn't it look so great with warm greeny gold? This photo is probably the most true to life when it comes to the actual paint color and how it looks in there. It's a little lighter in person, but this is the yellow with a hint of green tone to a T. It's just like an artichoke heart.
Suddenly I actually feel like doing laundry. Weird.
Psst- You guys were all so sweet about my haircut yesterday. Seriously, I almost got a cavity. And I definitely got all awkward and clammy and blushy. Basically the opposite of cute. Anyway, rest assured that my hair will never look that good again (you know stylists possess some other-worldly powers to create a hairstyle that no one can replicate at home). So stop being so dang nice. It's making me rashy.

Thanks for the prompt response; but, I think you may have been looking at another post. I was asking about the color of your paint, Sesame 381. I just want to make sure it's the right color. Benjamin Moore's site says it's a taupe color. Is that the right name?
This makes me want to paint my laundry room …
I still have the Brady Bunch casette tape in my car! Love!
Bee tee dubs, hmm? I pronounce/say(yes, out loud) WB as WuBee (stress on the second syllable). It sounds much more enthusiastic than "welcome back."
Painting the laundry the same color as the kitchen was a good choice. And I'm not just saying that because I did the same thing since my laundry is right off the kitchen too. ;)
Love the colors! How do you feel about matching BM to Olympic? I tried researching it when I was picking paint colors but they seemed to think that it wasn't fool proof. I had them do it for a sample at Lowes but I wasn't able to do it myself or online to see how close it matched beforehand.
Looks great!!
I have to admit… I have been on vacation for a week now and I still check your blog everyday. I love the laundry room progress and I can't wait until I have a home of my own someday to use all your tips and tricks on!
i went to the b m web site(ha ha) and searched sesame 381 and a taupe color came up. could you tell me the name of your laundry room color? i think it looks awsome with the white trim.
Love it!!! It's so happy in there now. Did you also pick this bright color because one day that window & door will not let light in anymore because you will have a garage there instead of the carport? I can't wait to see all the details you put into this room. It's going to be a very nice entrance area into your home. Have you thought about coving the washer and dryer with a curtain to just hide the whole area back there? From floor to ceiling. Just curious.
Looks great and cheery! I can't remember if you've posted about this, but did you apply that foggy-looking film to your door in there? If so, do you know what it's called or where I could find something like that? Thanks!
Oh, I love, love, love that you are choosing such happy colors! We tend to love color too much, but I see nothing wrong with that.
that's a bummer you can't move the washer/dryer. i would check into that more though (longer cords or hoses, i don't know? or have a plumber/electrician relocate hookups. since the wall will be hidden by the appliances maybe you wouldn't have to completely refinish the drywall or plaster once that work was done to save money). it would cost a little more but not as much as moving the wall between your kitchen/laundry room and might be worth it for convenience of more storage. but yeah, i'm obsessed with functional storage…
I can't remember if you did this after you purchased your washer and dryer, but while you replacing your dryer hose with a safer metal one, you'll want to replace your washing machine's water lines with metal ones as well. The plastic ones that come with the washer can break and flood your entire house. Happened to my and family and I while we were on vacation, and it caused thousands of dollars in damage.
So I just thought you guys might want to know, you have "paining" holy grail instead of "painting" in the paragraph right before the last picture. You guys do such a great job with this blog. It's definitely my fav! Keep up the great work, you are so inspiring!
Can I just say that it is refreshing to see that in the last photo you got the littlest bit of yellow paint on the bottom of the trim. I was painting our bathroom yesterday and when I got it on the trim I got so mad and said "Sherry never gets paint on her trim!"
I love the paint color! Isn't it amazing what a clean laundry room can put you in the mood for… actually doing laundry? ;)
Got a question. What kind of lights are those hanging in the kitchen? And, how high are your ceilings?
We have 8′ ceilings in our house and I see everyone putting in "dangly light fixtures" but I wonder what their ceiling height is? It seems like it would make it feel even lower if there was a light fixture hanging down…
Oh, and I love your hair Sherry… you look like a movie star!
Thank God I didn't click on the video…I already have the song stuck in my head just by reading the title…wouldn't want to jam it in there all week! :P
I am all about your laundry room…love fab! Oh PS, got my hair cut today thanks to you!
Show us a pic from the kitchen perspective pretty please? Kthxbye.
Funny that you just posted the video from the Brady Bunch today because I just heard on the radio that the creator of the Brady Bunch died yesterday or this morning, not funny that he died but ironic that you posted that video on this day….. errrr. Anyways… cute laundry room, you guys have officially made me go gaga over light greens.
A CHIN HAIR ON A MOUNTAIN GOAT!?!? You just made my day. I don't know why I think that is hilarious but I do.
Oh, I want to redo our dingy laundry room soooo bad and do the stackables for more floor space and built in shelving. I love doing laundry and it would make me so happy to have a cheery place to do it and organize everything. But the husband says no more projects this summer since we just finished our hardwoods. I wish it were our jobs to renovate! :)
I love your website! After just buying our first house, we're in the middle of projects galore and you give me inspiration to do them!
For the trim, we have ugly brown quarter round as well…how did you paint it without getting paint on the floor?
Do you guys line dry any clothes? If you do, do you just stick with the pop-up drying rack? Do you keep it in the laundry room? I always love the cute drying racks like those in Ballard Design and have always been tempted to DIY one, but I don't really have a good place to put it.
wow- i totally remember that song!!! i loved that episode!!!
and the laundry room looks so fresh and cheerful!
lol I haven't thought about Sunshine Day for decades . . . like two and a half. (And I'm only 35. Man . . . that sounds so much OLDER than 34, which is what I was just a few weeks ago.)
I'm so glad you guys put down the plywood under your machines . . . it really will make all the difference in stiffening up the floor, and helping to reduce wear and tear on the main bearing in the washer.
Now, go forth and launder! ;o)
Gosh, you guys just make me want to paint something! My basement laundry area is pretty gross, I think it needs more than paint.
How in the world do you reach to do the laundry Sherry? This may be something I look into to get out of laundry duty.
The paint looks great, you are the painting master! Do you buy new rollers each time you paint, or can they be reused without losing quality? If so, how many times?
It is so cheery! It almost makes me want to do laundry. Almost.
I see you mentioned doing a subtle stencil or paint treatment if you need more "mojo" in that room, but have you considered painting a color in the same shade, just a bit darker than the kitchen?
You mentioned that you will be adding tons of white shelving, (along with the tons of white already there from the window, washer/dryer & doorframes) it reminded me of the dark blue paint my mother put on our sunroom walls. Our sunroom is mostly windows, so there is tons of white molding. She decided to paint it a dark blue that is shades darker, but still the same hue of blue in our den (our den is connected to the sunroom by a huuuuge 8-foot-ish wide doorway). The colors were related, so it connected the two rooms really well, but the sunroom still gets to have it's own identity!!!
Yes, I'm excited about giving our sunroom it's own identity. I think it's sad when a room has an identity crisis :P And could you paint experts tell me if I'm using the terms "hue" and "shades" correctly?
True, it is a bit of an awkward and small space. Maybe I'll be able to see you guys use the "a couple shades lighter/darker" trick somewhere else in your house :)
and "bee tee dubs," your old washer/dryer combo is still performing beautifully at my house! I love having appliances that work, haha :)
Hi Guys! LOVE your new kitchen color! Passing along a little photo tutorial about using a photo grey card to achieve the correct color balance in your pics. It's very EASY and will help you tremendously in the various lighting situations around your home. No need to adjust the White Balance in your camera — all done in post processing in Photoshop or Adobe Camera Raw in Bridge (which can also process JPEGs).
Have a sunshine-y day!!!!
That looks great!
Laundry room looks awesome — and so does your new cut! (love that john called your pony tail the 5th member of YHL too) Happy Anniversary and you should totally make the hawaii 5 – 0 thing happen!
Do you guys know of any free websites that are similar to something you can do on Photoshop when it comes to room design?
are you looking to make moodboards?
if so, i just paste the pictures onto a blank PowerPoint slide and then change the background color to match the wall color in the room…
if not, disregard :)
if you mean mood board what i do is crop pictures into paint and re size them so it makes sense. you cant really do a lay out but you can put furniture together, add pillows on top. it looks a little awkward but it gives you an idea.
I'm looking more for something I can change wall, floor, and fireplace colors with. Also, maybe changing kitchen layout or removing an overhead cabinet to see how it changes the space. I like visuals. =)
im pretty sure you can go to the ikea website and download what they use to change kitchens. of course you'll have to use ikea cabinetry but you'll get the idea. bher.com also has an application to upload photos of your room and change the colours.
Love the color! I'm a weird-o who's obsessed with bright and clean laundry rooms. It makes me actually want to do laundry!
Very cheery (which definitely sets the right mood for when you do laundry)! Love it!
Really, loving how bright everything is with this color. Now that we (may) be choosing a small house with lots of dark potential (thankfully NO paneling!), I'm going to have to let go of my dream colors (like the back of your bookshelf) and opt for colors that will brighten like this. A teeny charming hosue of neutrals could be really lovely. I may look to your former hosue photos for inspiration!
You did a fabulous job.
And I'm kind of wild about your artichoke reference… digging those so much these days.
It looks wonderful. I am with you on sticking with the same color throughout the kitchen and laundry room, much less choppy looking than 2 colors.
Any tips on painting quarter round? We've lived in our house for a year now, thought I could overlook quarter round stained oak to match our floors. I'd love to paint them white to give our baseboard a bit more weight, but I'm afraid I will munge them up and get paint on the hardwood floors.
I love everything about your quaint litty laundry space, from the white molding around the windows to the limey color on the walls. It's crazy how much a little bit of paint can change a room. I'm in the process right now of trying to pick a color for my washroom and bedroom and something along the lines of this is definitely going somewhere.
The tip about putting plywood below the washing machine is a great one too. Unstable washing machines can definitely lead to unnecessary wear and tear, which no one wants. Like you said, the fix is simple but can give your machine a few extra years of life.
Thanks for sharing!
Looks great! We have a hideously long & large fuse box in our bedroom… it turned out to be a great place to hang a full length mirror! Bye bye fuse box!
Are you going to hang some fabulous chandelier in this room? There is something so awesome about elegance in a place of washing clothes. My washer/dryer is in the garage, so I'm not sure I can pull it off. Maybe next house…
Looks even better in that room. Love it. Cannot wait to see what else you do in there!
Delurking to say hahahahaha – Bobby's heartfelt solos!!!! That always cracks me up.
Love, LOVE the yellow and white trim.
You really make my place look bad, haha… just kidding, kinda :)~
"I am still learning"
I am so happy you used that bright color in your laundry room! Ours is completely windowless, in the basement and I used the brightest, cheery yellow I could find. With the white appliances and hopefully soon there will be white shelving units and cupboards, it just looks so cheery and clean! Yay!
The laundry room looks great (and, oddly, I'm coveting Marcia's shorts/skort!).
what did the previous owners use those tiny little weird shelves for?
Great color- it looks so fresh! And your looks great too!
We must be on the same sunshiny wave length this week… I used the BB Sunshine Day in my blog post earlier this week :) (Ironic too that the BB creator just passed away this week… a little tribute to the wholesomeness he created!)
Hey now, you aren't making fun of my Bradys are you? Marcia Marcia Marcia (otherwise known as Maureen) was my girl crush when I was in high school back in the 70s. I finally met her at her book signing a couple years ago.
I love the color you guys selected for the kitchen and laundry. Maybe I should paint my laundry again. I have painted it about six times and never like the color so my last color was antique white! My condo has neighbors on both sides and behind so I only have windows at the front of the condo and none in the bathrooms, laundry and kitchen which are in the back. No sunshine day at my house without turning on lights even in the day!
Love the new color in the kitchen and laundry room; it looks beautiful and cheery! I have a question for you about painting metal…have you guys ever painted a metal door? I have two doors, that are both metal and they desperately need a fresh coat of paint. I'm not sure what steps I should take to make them look new again…any ideas?
not to sound totally dim-witted but what is the risk with the dryer hose? Maybe I need to be more concerned about ours? Thanks!

Ryan C. Thomas is the author of THE SUMMER I DIED, BORN TO BLEED, HISSERS, THE UNDEAD WORLD of OZ, and many more. He works as a professional musician in San Diego.
Review by:
james carroll
on Dec. 08, 2011 :
This release from independent newcomers Grand Mal Press is a kick ass quartet of novellas by four rising stars of the genre.
First up is Howler by Randy Chandler; a ripping tale set in the American South of the 1930s. When a hairy prostitute known as Wolf Girl escapes captivity in a whorehouse, she joins a carnival of sideshow freaks where she falls under the psychic influence of a strange specimen in a jar.
Historical horror can be difficult to pull off, especially when writers make the mistake of emulating the slower pace of yesteryear in their quest for a more authentic feel. Their dialogue can often sound stilted for the same reason, so it was great to see Chandler avoid these pitfalls with a contemporary style that was constantly engaging.
Next up is The Mushrooms by Gregory L. Norris. When a crazed woman attacks a celebrity chef over claims of plagiarism, the TV host retreats to an isolated cottage in order to recuperate, only to discover it isn't the safe haven she thought it was.
This is a very well written story and Norris does a fine job of creating an atmosphere of claustrophobic terror within the cottage. He also displays considerable skill in handling a bizarre concept that could have easily come off as b-grade in lesser hands.
Choose by Ryan C. Thomas is the tale of a computer repairman on the run from a madman who's threatened to kill the repairman's wife and daughter unless he kills one of them himself.
This is perhaps the darkest of the four novellas, a powerful story that is every bit as bleak and harrowing as it is compelling.
Finally we have The Outsider Trio by David T. Wilbanks, where a man in search of the woman he loves gets caught up in supernatural events after discovering she's been kidnapped by occultists. This is another fine story that ventures even further into the fantastical than the preceding three, and deftly contrasts action with an overall mood of creeping dread.
Wilbanks describes himself as a writer of horror, fantasy & adventure, and this is a great example of how he blends all three into his own distinctive style.
I really can't find anything to dislike about MalContents, and look forward to reading more from each of these writers and more from Grand Mal Press.
(reviewed long after purchase)

Last week, I went on Ticketmaster to purchase a ticket to see one of my favorite artists, The Weeknd, in concert. Tickets went on sale on Thursday at 10 am. There I was on my iPad at 10am, trying unsuccessfully to process my order. I tried for thirty minutes – on my iPad, my Blackberry, and even a PC. Finally, I called Ticketmaster, who apologized for my inconvenience and explained that the show was sold out (a fact that my Twitter feed later confirmed happened in about 30 seconds). On a whim, I checked out Stubhub, the world's largest fan-to-fan ticket marketplace. To my non-surprise, tickets
for the concert were already on sale, less than an hour after Ticketmaster opened for sale and priced at up to 200% of the face value.
Look, I respect a good hustle as much as the next person. But, as a music fan, I am frustrated and annoyed by this scenario: so-called savvy entrepreneurs purchasing tickets from the official ticket vendors, then re-selling the tickets with the appropriate price mark-up (which sounds eerily similar to the cybersquatters from the early 2000).The purpose of Stubhub is "provide fans a safe, convenient place to get tickets . . . .and an easy way to sell their tickets when they can't go (to the event). Stubhub was not meant to serve as a de facto gray market for scalpers—yet in my situation, and in countless others, that is precisely what it is used to do.
While technology and innovative new business models continue to provide opportunities for connecting fans to music, the question becomes: how can we ensure that these new tools are used in a way to promote fairness? What are our "code of ethics" or best practices with respect to the Internet? Where do we draw the line between capitalism and theft? Who will be responsible for ensuring "fairness" in the internet marketplace? Who will protect the innocents?
I have been thinking about these questions in several contexts over the past few months, most significantly with respect to former Megaupload users. The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) is representing customers who stored legitimate, non-infringing content on the cloud-storage service, but were left with no access to their data after the Department of Justice shut Megaupload down in January. On its face, their stories are not much different from mine: individuals using technology for its intended purpose, only to be penalized for the actions of those who do not. Thus far, the solution has been to rely on the law to protect and punish, but even that does not seem to provide an effective solution because when Congress attempts to protect, we cry foul.
So what are we to do? Ideally, I think the only way curb this "bad behavior" is to hold ourselves and each other accountable. But in order to do that, we need to find a common understanding of what is "right" and "wrong." It occurs to me that there remains a fundamental misunderstanding of what the Internet is or should be, how it should be used and for what purpose. Most importantly, our moral and economic compass remains in flux. If left unaddressed, this misunderstanding or failure of the meeting of minds will continue to manifest itself and reflect in disagreements on the appropriate action to take. Laws are simply a consensus of social rules with actionable consequences. So before we can take any action we need to take a hard look at what's going on and see if we can't pull out some general consensus on how we feel about it.
(And I'm off my soapbox.)

Just a few weeks ago, President Bush and Secretary of State Rice hosted an international conference at the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. The conference focused on supporting the efforts of Israeli Prime Minister Olmert and Palestinian Authority President Abbas on their road to peace.
After months of posturing by the Democrat leadership in the House of Representatives over the future of the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP), the simple legislation to extend the existing program was agreed to on a vote of 411-to-three. This extension does not include an increase in taxes that some had advocated in order to extend the SCHIP program to those making up to $61,000 and to make it easier for recent immigrants and illegals to access the SCHIP program.
We'll find out tomorrow whether the "Democratic" Party's establishment will regret the party's heavily front-loaded primary and caucus schedule.
Trees along a curved section Va. 24, between Spradlin Road and Morgans Mill Road bear the signs of motor vehicle accidents.
One of those was made by a Staunton River High School student on May 1. Katherine Hogan believes she is alive today because of the "granny car", a 1996 Mercury Sable, that her family got for her to drive and the fact that she always wears her seatbelt.
Bedford area firefighters will soon have a new facility that will help them be better trained to fight fires and respond to emergency situations.
Construction of a burn building off Orange Street in Bedford should be finished later this month or in February. The cost of the building ? $430,000 including construction and engineering ? is being paid for through a grant from the Department of Fire Programs, applied for by the Bedford Fire Department. The facility will be used by all 12 independent fire departments in the city and county, representing some 705 volunteers.
Bedford Science and Technology Center (BSTC) has earned ASE certification in four automotive repair areas.
According to Kevin Fike, who teaches automotive repair, ASE means Automotive Service of Excellence. It's an automotive service standards program run by the National Automotive Technicians Education Foundation (NATEF).
Roy Arrington, of Goode, was a New Year's Day baby.
Arrington was born on Jan. 1, 1908 near Sedalia. Yesterday he celebrated his centennial.
He worked a number of different jobs, including a stint with the Works Progress Administration (WPA) doing road work in Bedford County during the Depression. He finally landed a job with the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) and stayed with them for 36 years until his retirement in 1970. He was a motor grader operator and truck driver for VDOT and worked under 12 different resident engineers in the county.
A Friday morning fire gutted a house on U. S. 460 a few miles west of Bedford.
Russell Stevens, Bedford's fire chief, said the call came in around 7 a.m. Flames were shooting out of the front of the house when firefighters got there.
Stevens, who was the on-scene commander for the firefighters involved, said that it took between 35 and 40 minutes to extinguish the blaze. However, smoldering pockets inside walls and in the attic kept them on the scene until nearly noon.
The house was heavily damaged.
Charles Moore can tell you that getting carjacked is a disconcerting experience. It's even worse when the thieves take you along with the car.
This was one of many experiences that Moore had during nearly 30 years as an American Baptist missionary in Zaire, now the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
At 7:28 a.m. Thursday morning, Bedford County Sheriff?s Office received a 911 call reporting that a woman had been abducted and stabbed in the stomach. The Chamblissburg Rescue Squad and sheriff?s deputies responded to 116 Scenic Drive. The female victim, was able to get away from the suspect and go to a neighbor?s home and call 911. She had a stab wound to her side and was transported to Carillon Roanoke Memorial Hospital. At this time the relationship between victim and suspect is unclear.

All entries are due by 7/21/14 by 12:00:00 (noon) ET.
What kind of kitchen projects are eligible for The Big Reveal?
Any kind of kitchen project — from a DIY project to a full-scale professional renovation — is welcome. As long as the entry begins with a clear before photo of the space, and finishes with an after photo following completion of the project, it is eligible.
I received confirmation that you received my entry. So why wasn't my entry posted?
Our system does not automatically post entries as they are submitted. Our team selects the best entries to post. Not all submissions may be posted due to space limitations and it is up to The Kitchn to post the strongest submissions.
How are finalists/winners chosen?
Finalists and the International favorite are chosen through a reader favoriting process. A final reader vote will determine the grand prize winner.
My home was previously featured on The Kitchn or Apartment Therapy — am I still eligible to enter The Big Reveal 2014 Contest?
Yes, readers who have previously shared their homes with the community are eligible.
I am getting the 'Too many users at this IP have voted for/favorited this' error message when I try to vote. I am voting from a shared computer network (e.g., a workplace or school) — what can I do to make sure my vote is recorded?
We limit the number of votes that are recorded from a single IP address to prevent attempts at voting multiple times by a single person, which is disallowed by our rules, against the spirit of the contest and, unfortunately, common. It is difficult for us to verify the rare case where many votes from the same IP address are legitimate. To ensure your vote gets counted, we recommend you sign in from a computer on a different network (for example, at home) to vote.
Still have questions?

How To Make Deviled Eggs
Cooking Lessons from The Kitchn
Deviled eggs are pure genius. They take hard-cooked eggs — already one of the world's most perfect foods — and elevate them into an elegant bite that's worthy of any appetizer plate. From summer picnics to Easter brunch, afternoon snack time to Sunday supper, deviled eggs are more than up for the occasion.
Deviled eggs are also one of the easiest appetizers we know how to make. Today, we'll show you the easiest, most basic method for these addictive treats, with plenty of ideas for making them your own.
How To Boil Eggs Perfectly Every Time
Cooking Lessons from The Kitchn
One bad hard-boiled egg can ruin you for life. At least, that's what I believed until I learned how to cook soft-boiled and hard-boiled eggs precisely how I wanted to eat them. The perfect hard-boiled egg has no green ring around the yolk; the innards are creamy and mellow; and if you're in the mood, you can stop short of the hard-boil and make a gooey soft-boiled egg instead.
Do you know how to make perfect boiled eggs every single time? Let us show you — it's so easy.

Each individual wire is labeled with its corresponding part name which runs the length of the wire for ease of identification.

In order to circumvent the sizeable roster bonus that was due to Culpepper without cutting him from the team, Culpepper and the Lions have agreed to a 1 Year deal that the Veteran Starter signed today. Lewand says that this deal does not necessarily mean that Dante is guaranteed the starting position.
In lieu of franchising Jason Hanson before the the deadline on Thursday, The Lions and Hanson agreed to a 4 year deal.
This works out well for everyone, I suppose this means that Hanson has resigned himself from any 'free agent kicker seeks Superbowl contender' thoughts and wishes. Jason is happy here and he will no doubt finish his career here. The Lions are thus spared the embarrassment of franchising their kicker.

Contour Brush is rated out of 5 by 139.
Rated 5 out of 5 by trinityaz from A staple in my makeup bag I actually did not like this brush when I first got it because I felt like it was too stiff to use on the eye area (and I already have a go-to contour brush). But recently I started using some makeup artist-quality eye shadows that are so highly pigmented that you can over-do them very easily if you don't have a precise application. This brush has now become my favorite brush for applying shadow to the crease of the eye! I have about four or five of these, and use them everyday for a really easy, precise application of shadows. The brush is soft, is somewhat small in size (compared to other contour brushes) and does not splay (or fan out) at all really, so if you think you might like those qualities, then definitely grab a few of these.

Rated 5 out of 5 by maritzasoto41 from amazing!!! another favorite brush i love using it on my eye crease and its so soft i love love love this brush.
Date published: 2014-08-06
Rated 3 out of 5 by winnie2 from bristles are too hard i bought this because the sales associate recommended it greatly for eye shadow application but the bristles are too hard and it hurts. It pulls my eyes whenever i use it. the other studio brushes are much better
Date published: 2014-08-01
Rated 5 out of 5 by Diamond from Great for contouring I actually use this brush to contour my nose.. and it works wonders!! Also very easy to clean!! I recommend this to everyone I know
Date published: 2014-05-26
Rated 4 out of 5 by Tinab from This brush is great for getting right into the crease and helping to blend. Soft and sturdy.?
Date published: 2014-04-01
Rated 3 out of 5 by jGeron from Not all brushes had soft bristles! I bought 3 of these but only 1 was soft while the other 2 were extremely stiff to the point where it was scratching my eyelid. Tried to fluff it out to lessen the stiffness but it didn't work. Had to throw those 2 out. The 'good' brush was actually really good and useful. Great as a blending tool!
Date published: 2014-03-30
Rated 5 out of 5 by jennifer26 from Nice sturdy brush Sleek easy to use and has worn well. helps you to apply make up where you want it and not all over the eye
Date published: 2014-01-28
Rated 5 out of 5 by jgriz from Use for inner corner of eye I don't use this for my crease since it is pretty dense. Instead I love using it to highlight my inner corner of my eye. I can never do it cleanly trying to apply a highlight shade with my finger. This brush is the perfect size and allows me to be more precise with this application. Love it.

British Telecommunications PLC (BT) announced new cloud-based capabilities for BT Trace, its portfolio of supply chain solutions designed to help organizations overcome the challenges of managing increasingly complex global supply chains.
BT Trace now includes a cloud-based solution that will provide a single, accurate view into complex supply chains in near real time, to see how and where changes need to be made and enable customers to improve operational efficiency.
Companies with a global supply chain deal with multiple issues, from counterfeiting and shrinkage to product recalls and perishable goods. This is typical for global companies active in industry sectors such as consumer packaged goods, logistics, manufacturing, pharma or retail for example. They need an accurate understanding of all inventory and on-shelf availability, all the while trying to comply with regulations and operate a sustainable business.
Supply chain visibility is a challenge for those companies because of the multiplicity of formats, sources and partners that collect data. All too often, their various resource planning and backend systems are not even connected. BT Trace helps companies respond to those critical challenges.
The new cloud service announced today, cost effectively and securely collects, stores, shares and interprets high volume event data about goods and assets moving along an extended global supply chain. The new service integrates the complex information from the various resource planning and IT systems used by global companies - and by their suppliers - to provide a single view of the whole supply chain through a customized web portal.
"Through the combination of global network and data centre reach, multi-tiered security capabilities, industry expertise, and systems integration skills, BT brings to market a differentiated value proposition to the challenging problem of supply chain management. The cloud-based capabilities announced today for BT Trace provide global companies with end-to-end visibility of their supply chains and expedite the process of transforming enterprise resource planning data into real-time, actionable business intelligence," says Melanie Posey, research vice president at IDC.
The new service has been trialed and tested with TNT Express, the express delivery company. The service developed by BT in close collaboration with TNT was implemented to help drive operational efficiency; improve customer service and optimize reverse logistics.
"We have shown that greater visibility across the supply chain increases efficiency and flexibility, says Steve Brown, divisional general manager of TNT Special Services. "There is no doubt that a single view across all systems and data speeds up processes and identifies significant events, allowing us to respond in new and better ways to our customers, and they, in turn, deliver a better service to their customers."
"Billions of dollars are attributed to the cost of an organizations' global supply chain, with boardroom focus firmly on reducing cost and driving up operational efficiency. We are uniquely positioned to solve today's key supply chain challenges based on a heritage of managing complex data interactions over our global network. In addition, BT's worldwide infrastructure, service provision, security expertise, and track record of successful system integrations align precisely with the demands of modern supply chain systems," explains Luis Alvarez, CEO for BT Global Services.
"This combination is brought to bear through our strategic focus on global industry sectors, including consumer packaged goods, manufacturing, logistics, pharmaceuticals and retail," says Alvarez. "Customers in those sectors clearly depend on the efficiency of their supply chains to gain competitive advantages. With BT Trace, we are pioneers in providing those customers with the ability to identify inefficiencies, streamline their processes and be more successful in their market place."
BT Trace is a comprehensive supply chain portfolio of services designed primarily for global companies active in consumer packaged goods, manufacturing, logistics, pharmaceuticals and retail sectors. Its cloud-based capabilities rely on BT's new Cloud Compute platform.

A new report from eMarketer forecasts tablet spending in the U.S. to hit a mighty $24 billion in 2013, before reaching almost $50 billion in 2015.
Labelling mobile devices as a 'key component of the digital shopping landscape, the study states that mobile spending topped almost $25 billion in 2012, with this representing a year-on-year rise of 81% from 2011.
eMarketer expects this growth to continue in 2013, with mobile spending reckoned to increase by 55.7% year-on-year to account for 15% of all retail eCommerce sales.
It would appear that this growth will largely be driven by tablets however, with eMarketer saying that models like the iPad will 'produce the bulk' of Mcommerce up until 2017.
The researcher defines Mcommerce as all purchases made via smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices, with this not including the sale of travel or events tickets.
The firm says that U.S. consumers will spend $24 billion shopping on their tablets in 2013, and expects this figure to almost double by 2015. Such an increase will coincide with tablets accounting for 9.4% of all retail eCommerce sales this year, and for 16.9% by 2016.

Click on Logo
Partido Popular
Partido Independentista Puertorriqueño
Partido Nuevo Progresista
3 Political Parties / 4 3 Different Futures
Partido Popular Democrático
- There were two (2) alternatives. Only one (1) now, after Dec 13, 2013
1) ELA Mejorado
- The Hernández Colón version of having more independence in Trade, Immigration, Customs, Transportation
and out of the Territorial Clause
. But without loosing any or most of the benefits the island enjoy today, most important not loosing the Citizenship. Based on Ex-Governor Rafael Hernández Colón's "La Nueva Tesis"
2) ELA Soberano
- The Fas Alzamora vision as an Independent State but "associated" to the US. You could call it the "Associated Republic" ..
Today, the PPD are trying to sell the ELA Soberano, not as the Associated Republic that it is but as the unconstitutional debunked ELA Mejorado mentioned above. Lying to its member saying they can achive the same rights as an Independent nation but still stay within the US Constitution, again what was debunked on August 1, 2013 by the US Senate.
Partido Independentista Puertorriqueño
The biggest argument on the island today is the status.. Within the argument, which of the two alternatives the PPD will advocate in the future (see above). After December 13, 2013 the only decision left are Statehood or Independence. ELA Mejorado has been eliminated, see "Que Pasa" page, so what is left are those two alternatives that are NOT Territorial/Colonial. So the PPD will have to to decide how they will present their political future, something they . Even though the PIP is a very active party it does not have very much followers. The General Election votes have been divided between the three (3) parties 48%-4%-48% (PPD-PIP-PNP) since 1944 to the present. These percentages are an average. Please "VOTE History" page.
Please note that the Plebiscite Table results, prior to 2012 there was NO clear alternative to solve the "territorial" problem. Until 2012 the Plebiscite election were in essence a continuation of the General Election, a fight between the 3 Political Parties.
The 2012 Plebiscite was the first 1st in which the people were free to tell if they wanted to change the present status (ELA) and then as which Non-Territorial Alternative they would choose. (Statehood - Independence - ELA Soberano.(see above)
3) Puerto Rico - an Independent Soveraing Nation
Partido Nuevo Progresista
4) Statehood. the 51st State of the Union
More than ever we must listen to what Don Luis said . . .
Luis Muñoz Marin
, July 17, 1951, Barranquitas, Puerto Rico
"What we have to guard against in this world we live in is not to confuse love for our patria (pueblo) with small, futile and naive concepts of nationalism and national state."
(Popular Democratic Party) PPD
(Independence Puertorrican Party) PIP
(New Progressive Party) PNP
Debunked by the US Senate
Aug 1 & confrmed on Dec 13, 2013
The August 1, 2013 Senate Sub Commette hearing on the Nov 6, 2012 Plebiscite and the Sub-Commette Chairman and Minority letter of Dec 13, 2013 cppleatly debunk the idea of the ELA Mejorado and definitively eliminated the idea of any Non-Territorial/Colonial alternative in any future Plebiscite.

German engineers demo ROBOT APE
Balance is relatively easy for humans because we spent millennia evolving into walking upright, but it's difficult for robotics researchers. Researchers at the German Research Centre for Artificial Intelligence have decided to skip bipedism in favour of a robot that walks like an ape. The 18 kg robot, dubbed iStruct by its …
Well at least they put a head on this one.
Now the Martians'll know which end to threaten!
"artificial crater"
Sounds a lot like a hollowed out volcano to me...
Skullduggery is afoot...
Does it do...
The Balmer?
"The 18 kg robot..."
I for one say thank goodness for that. Had it been 300 kg and seeing no tether, it would have been worrisome even with half the strength of a similarly sized ape. Now then, how about a nice video on really challenging terrain.
Re: "The 18 kg robot..."
Na, the worrisome bit would be if it could get agitated like apes do and had had the tools to simmer down like apes do, i.e. humping whatever is available.
Ze Robot...
EEt iz anstoppabel, hahaha. Finally, Ve are back in ze Bizness, and Ve are coming zu get You verever You are, even if You climb up ze Tree or down ze Krater. You are up Sheiss Kreek, Inglish and American PigDogs!
Can we please stop with all those i prefixes. Thank you.
Re: i
how long will it take crApple to change its name to ipple haha
Re: i
Agreed. iCan'ttakemuchmore.
Re: i
But can it
fling fæces ?
Needs more monolith.
Possibly a pile of parts also.
Good to see...
that someone is re-using the set where they shot all the Apollo "moon" scenes.
A metal gorilla
For when a 7ft tall 400lb real ape just isn't enough.
Can I just say....
... Oook!
Why are we trying to imitate nature? I get that nature had a pretty long time of figuring out solutions that work and solutions that don't, but I doubt that there are no more efficient means of traversing diverse terrains... Some engineers have to sit down and come up with the most efficient way of movement, that works on most different terrains (which does exclude standalone wheels btw.). Bro-tip: Flying is PRETTY efficient. Anything that conserves inertia is also very good, for example kangaroos can move very energy efficient...
Re: Useless?
Are you proposing a robotic kangaroo?
Re: Useless?
Because working out how to control and synchronise all of those servos and sensors is obviously trivial and has no other practical application?
This is research, working out what can be done and how. What that technology ends up in may be completely different, but the research is non the less useful.
Missing from the end of the video
The gorillabot sits down and starts picking fleas off its programmer :-)
Its Gore!!
Can't believe nobody noticed it looks like a prototype of Gore from Zoids!!
Mini AT-AT?
Make it bigger, put some armor and laser cannons on it, and we're done!
Can it
climb skyscrapers with a woman in hand and swat at planes?
"...dubbed iStruct by its creators..."
iStruct? iStrut, surely.
