Braves maintain confidence in offense after major turnover
Those who watched the Braves in 2014 and then went into hibernation over the past two months might find it hard to believe some think their offense could prove to be even worse this season. Such is the case now the Braves have traded Jason Heyward, Justin Upton and Evan Gattis. In exchange, they gained a drastically-improved farm system and legitimate concerns about how they will score runs in 2015.
1/15/2015 |
Optimistic Hart has no plans to deal Kimbrel
Now that the Braves have traded Jason Heyward, Justin Upton and Evan Gattis, why would they choose to keep Craig Kimbrel when their offense is unlikely to be strong enough to provide the elite closer with consistent save opportunities?
1/15/2015 |
Gattis trade difficult for both Astros and Braves
OK, Braves fans, take a deep breath. Yes, you will miss Evan Gattis. His power is impressive, his humility appealing. This is one of those times when the baseball team's bottom line collides with the emotion of losing a popular player. Funny thing is, the Astros feel absolutely the same way. This trade stung from their end, too, although in a different way. Three years ago when Jeff Luhnow became the general manager, his primary goal was to build a great farm system.

Braves' 300-starts club tops for Hall of Famers
As Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine and John Smoltz have been elected to Cooperstown over the past year, the Braves can certifiably claim to have provided more starts to Hall of Fame starting pitchers than any other Major League organization.

Clutch factor sets Smoltz apart from HOF brethren
Cy Maddux, Cy Glavine or Cy Smoltz? Actually, I should give each member of the Braves' storied pitching trio an upgraded title. So I'll rephrase what I just wrote this way: Baseball Hall of Famer Maddux, Baseball Hall of Famer Glavine or Baseball Hall of Famer Smoltz? Tough choice, but if it's Game 7 of the World Series, and if I need to start one of those pitchers in their prime, I'm going with ...

Braves acquire promising lefty Sanchez from Angels
Extending their mission to improve the organization's pitching depth, the Braves have acquired Ricardo Sanchez, an intriguing 17-year-old prospect who had been with the Angels.

I really like old radio programs. This one is fairly entertaining. It is a product of its time. Please do not try to impose modern values on the characters. Do they develop the characters? Not really? Do we get to know Sailor and Slate deep down? Not at all!
This is good, schmaltzy, noir fun! There are a lot of dead people and stuff that makes no logical sense.
Note: there are some scratchy parts.
I highly recommend it.
Bogart is Slate Shannon, a hotelier who owns a boat he calls "Bold Venture" and Bacall as Sailor Duval, is his love interest/foil who joins him on adventures of rescue, intrigue, and crime fighting set against the colorful backdrop that is Cuba, as they become detectives for hire.

In the March 1934 issue of the legendary pulp magazine Black Mask, Jack "Flashgun" Casey, crime photographer, made his debut. His creator was former newspaper and advertising executive George Harmon Coxe Jr., who wrote more than 60 crime fiction novels in his lifetime. Casey's keen eye for detail served him well on the job, helping him to solve the crimes he was assigned to photograph for the newspapers.

The premiere production was Brave New World, narrated by Huxley himself, with a complicated sound-effects score that evidently took a long time to construct, and comprised a ticking metronome, tom-tom beats, bubbling water, an air hose, a cow's moo, an oscillator, and three kinds of wine glasses clicking together.

I am currently using John Frieda's Root Awakening line; however I used the Sheer Blond line for years without any issues. It is hard to speak to the highlighting properties, as I used it consistently for years; however my hair was soft and managable while using it, and I never had any of the issues other have noted with my hair being overly lightened, or feeling stripped. This shampoo is only meant to enhance your current color, and not actually make changes to it. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this to others and will likely purchase again in the future if I get tired of the Root Awakening line.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I use this Shampoo in the Platinum to Champagne shade, on my hair that i dye using only a prelighter, and it really helps to make my hair look so shiny and beautifully coloured. I've found its important to use the right shampoo with the correct conditioner (ie. a highlight activating one) to give the maximum and best result! And I switch between this shampoo and the John Frieda 'Go Blonder' Shampoo, which I use as more of a colour treatment; to add natural all over even colour and a stronger natural lightening effect to my dyed hair. Then once i switch to this one again it makes my hair look so champagne and beautifully light, so the two Shampoos work great in alternation.
I bought this product not with the intention to make my hair any lighter, rather it had the ingredients that are beneficial for oily hair. I really liked the fragrance it surely wasn't too strong. It foams nice and easily and my hair feels fresh and silky after washing. It definitely isn't too harsh. As well as it really works for my oily hair. It gives me nice volume and keeps my hair good for at least two days.
I definitely recommend this product for blond haired gals with oily hair. Only downside it's fairly expensive for a shampoo
i used it never liked it too heavy weighed my hair down and was hard to manage and the smell was horrible same with the conditioner it is dear but good if it works for everyone else his other stuff is good but i never liked this range i would not buy it again
I love this shampoo and its companion conditioner. It washes my hair really good and I have no idea why I ever stopped using it, but I wont stop again. This is a shampoo that is supposed to remove residues that dull natural or chemically highlighted hair, it is not intended to highlight your hair. I think it is a great deal for the money and I like the packaging.
I have dark-ish blond hair and was using this throughout the winter when my hair tends to become even darker. This didn't lighten my hair at all even though I used it repeatedly and used up the whole bottle. I dislike the entire John Frieda line, including his Frizz Ease products and will not be repurchasing again.
This product does bring out your blonde highlights more... but I don't really like it as a shampoo at all. It doesn't lather, and dries out my hair, I HAVE to deep condition it after I use the shampoo or else it's really coarse and dry. The difference in my hair isn't really worth the extra pain of the conditioning, so I won't be buying this again.
I use this on my six year old daughter's waist length hair. (very carefully because this stuff will burn your eyes) She has beautiful dirty blonde hair mixed in with natural platinum streaks. People are always asking me if I streaked her hair..
Anyway, this shampoo really brightens up her blonde and makes it shiny. I also use the John Frieda conditioner on her and it takes out tangles in no time flat. It never dries out her hair either, but that might be because we wash 2 times per week.
Sometimes I use this shampoo to de-gunkify my hair once a month. I really love this stuff and what it has done for my daughter's hair.
I honestly haven't seen a difference in my hair color. But, funny enough, my dad was the first person to say, "wow, your hair looks lighter!" So, while the difference isn't dramatic, I guess it actually does work enough for even a guy to notice.
I just like this shampoo. I think the scent is very pleasant and sweet, and doesn't linger too long after showering. My hair feels softer, even in this dry winter weather.
I would buy this again if I found another 2 for 1 deal.

Do you like comic books? Do you Love Sonic the Hedgehog? How big is your bromance with Mega Man? Well, get ready for, quite possibly, one of the coolest team ups in comic book history!
Archie Comics has confirmed that our two favorite heroes will team up in a 12 part series that spans three titles. The three titles that will host the epic series will be Sonic the Hedgehog, Mega Man, and Sonic Universe. We can expect to see the crossover appear next year in both print and a digital downloadable copy.
The story will be written by Ian Flynn and features cover art by Patrick Spaziante. It looks like both Sega and Capcom signed off on the deal last year before the New York Comic Con. Editor Paul Kaminski called Flynn after he heard the news.
"His response was, 'I have been writing that story since we began the Mega Man title,' " said Kaminski . "Of course, I thought he was joking, but not an hour later my inbox was flooded with Sonic/Mega Man story synopses."
Flynn also added, "I'm already living the dream by writing the Sonic titles. Then I got to live the other dream of writing for Mega Man. With that many dreams being handed to me, I figured it was only a matter of time."
The crossover is coming out as Archie Comics celebrates the 20th year since the release of their first Sonic comic. It will be the one year anniversary of their Mega Man run. Flynn had the following to say about the direction he would like the series to go:
"Going in, I want this to be the story fans wanted to read — not just our regular comic fans, but fans of both franchises — so we're holding nothing back," he says. "Who knows when the stars will align and we'll get another chance to do something like this again, so I'm making sure this is the end-all, be-all crossover."
I cannot wait to see what they do with the crossover! If it is a hit, I hope that it can be translated to an awesome Nintendo game!

Draft this man!
THE GODFREY SHOW – This is Dexter McCluster. The waterbug. The scatback. The X-man. The Wild Rebel. The savior of an impostor offense in 2009. He's also the undersized draft risk, an offensive tweener thought to be too small to withstand life as a primary (or even changeup/third down) tailback in the league and too much of an unknown at receiver. See what Godfrey has to say about Dexter's draft chances on The Godfrey Show in this week's Oxford Town. (April 15, 2010, Page 12)

Would later Double Decker be any better?
After earning a reprieve from having to compete with the Ole Miss spring football game, now Double Decker officials are hearing from some local businesses that they'd like to see the local festival, always held on the final weekend of April, moved to a summer date.

on July 18, 2010 Source: Policy Dialogue on Entrepreneurship
Amidst all the bad news in Iceland related to the economic crisis and the disruption caused earlier this year by the Eyjafjallajokull volcano, the country has seen some entrepreneurial silver linings. The stream of positive signs I noticed began in March this year when Iceland replaced the United States as the INSEAD world champion in innovation. Then in Dubai that same month, Iceland won the Global Entrepreneurship Congress award for best entrepreneurship movement during the 2009 Global Entrepreneurship Week. And more recently, entrepreneurship was incorporated into public discourse as a main driver of economic regeneration when Iceland's President led a summit in his country on innovation, entrepreneurship, and green energy. With Iceland getting so much attention for being on the brink of bankruptcy, I thought such good news about signs of an entrepreneur-led economic resurgence deserves note.Iceland certainly felt the effects of their unprecedented financial collapse. According to an OECD report, domestic demand fell sharply in 2009, and the economy continued to shrink during the first part of this year. The declining economy, combined with news of excess and corruption in the financial sector, caused violent protests, the resignation of a government, and a lingering anger against big business. Kauffman Foundation president and CEO Carl Schramm's article in the May/June issue of Foreign Affairs introducing a new area of economic inquiry called expeditionary economics was well timed for Iceland. Schramm proposes a new model for how to tackle such collapse whether caused by economic or natural disasters or conflict that emphasizes the formation and growth of firms, ideally firms that are capable of scaling and thus employing many people. This new doctrine is based on the recognition that a country's political and social stability stems from economic opportunity and job growth. While the argument in "Expeditionary Economics—Spurring Growth after Conflicts and Disasters" focuses on the reconstruction experiences in war-torn economies, countries like Iceland and Greece deserve considerable attention for they can offer great insights and lessons in this regard from a less dramatic platform for other nations fearful of similar fates. Iceland's leaders are clearly committed to an entrepreneurial strategy for recovery. President Ólafur Ragnar Grímsson who led the MIT Global Startup Workshop (GSW) this year spoke under the theme of "Conquering the Economic Crisis with Innovation, Entrepreneurship, and Green Energy." He attracted entrepreneurial leaders, financiers, students, professors, government agents and other private sector parties to build a global support network for entrepreneurship. These efforts could quickly take off and generate benefits of innovation, job generation and economic regeneration for Iceland's economy. The 2009 Eurobarometersurvey reports a favorable attitude towards entrepreneurs in Iceland (82% of the population share this favorable view). And this attitude translates into action. Thorlindur Kjartansson, Chairman of Innovit, a centre for innovation and entrepreneurship in the country, reported recently that even in the midst of a turbulent sociopolitical and economic climate, Iceland has seen a surge of entrepreneurial activity. And much of this activity is focused on high-impact projects. The OECD predicted last November that economic growth will return to Iceland thanks to an expected stabilization of financial conditions coupled with increased investments in large energy-related projects. Iceland's geography allows the country to be the home of many geothermal ventures and other cleantech ventures. It is estimated that around 80 per cent of Iceland's energy now comes from renewable sources and many argue that the country is further along the road to becoming a low-carbon economy than any other.While the application of an entrepreneurial growth strategy always varies by country, one of the core tasks is identifying high-growth entrepreneurial opportunities specific to each economy. If Iceland's innovative entrepreneurs are willing and have a supportive climate to grow new businesses, the country has already embarked on a homegrown path to economic stability and will resurge firmly. European nations threatened with future economic fears might do well to invest now in their own homegrown high-growth potential entrepreneurs. Who knows, maybe they might just be the key to avoid the fiscal doom so many economists predict.

An opulent bronze, marble and sandstone cenotaph has stood in Esk since 1921, even though it took another 58 years for the surrounding park to be proclaimed as a memorial reserve.
The foundation stone was laid in December 1920 by Colonel Graham Butler, the original medical officer who landed with the Queensland 9th Battalion at Gallipoli.
... moreThe Esk Patriotic Committee had started fundraising in 1916. They needed £885, a high price for a community paying a high human cost. Of the 545 men from the Esk district who enlisted, 83 died.
All the names are captured on this monument. Fixed bronze plates on the base bear the names of the dead. The others' names appear on huge bronze plates fixed to recessed marble panels.
Designed by Georg Brockwell Gill of Ipswich, the stonework was executed by masons Frank Williams & Co. Art metalwork was supplied by Wunderlich Ltd of Sydney.
The memorial park, proclaimed in 1979, was extended four years later. It now includes a stone memorial to Captain Patrick Logan, commandant of the Moreton Bay Penal Settlement who was murdered while exploring the Brisbane Valley in 1830, and plaques honouring those who died in WWII and post-1945 conflicts.

Some of you wash every other day while others let the loads build up for over a week before tossing them in the wash. What would you recommend as a washing schedule for those just getting started? How frequently do you have to launder them so that smell isn't an issue? We all have different tricks for keeping those diapers clean while cutting down our workload. What are yours?
We diaper our 6 week old with prefolds, and wash every three days. We have 36 diapers, so running out is not the issue. Three days is when the pail (target garbage can + Wammies liner) gets full and a touch smelly.
I know people sprinkle baking soda in the pail when things get a little smelly and chemically I know is should work (it also makes washing a little more effective)
I'm really glad you posted this question. We're expecting our 1st in May and planning on cloth diapering. I'm not quite sure what our routine is going to be, so I'm curious what everybody does. Right now, I think our plan is every 2-3 days but that is mostly due to the number of diapers we have at the moment.
We have 2 under 2 (I can only say that for 3 more weeks, sigh…) both in cloth diapers….we wash every 2 days. We use 2 wet bags in the bathroom & by that point, the bags are overflowing…some times, we get out of sync and one uses more diapers than normal (ie: teething, sick tummies, etc…) and we end up washing every day for a couple days…
i try to go 2-3, I found if I went more than 3, the stink (even after washing) was horrible and the hardest thing to get rid of…
Every other day. I don't have enough diapers to go longer, but I think even if I did I would still wash every other day. The thought of letting it sit longer than that is kinda grossing me out right now…
Every other day. And I do 'em after bedtime to get as many as I can in the load.
I just started cloth diapering my 19 month old four weeks ago for four days a week. I work three days a week so we use disposables at the babysitter's house. I wash every two days typically Saturday night and Monday night. I don't have a lot of diapers yet and I am still trying to figure out what works for us and what doesn't. Washing every two days seems to be pretty good for us. It really has not been a big deal to wash them. I thought it would be so much more difficult than it is. We had our first blow out today (but that can happen with any diaper). Other than the blow out it has been great and I never knew how addicting it could be. I am trying to figure cloth diapering out now so when our third child (three and under) arrives this summer we will be ready.
I use all pocket diapers and I have quite a large amount. I usually wash every 2-3 days, but I do have some back up diapers to use if I run out before the wash.
We use BG pocket 1 size diapers and wash every other day. I usually run out by then and do the load right after bedtime. I'm planning on adding more to our stash so that we don't "run out" anymore and can wash with out needing to use the dryer, air drying is so much nicer and cheaper! Honestly by that time the pail starts to smell iffy anyway so i wouldn't want to wait any longer…especially if their was a diaper that had had a #2 in it.
I was so happy to see this post! I am due to have a baby TODAY and have all of my cloth diapers ready to go (a girlfriend of mine MAKES them in a sewing circle with other like-minded moms, from scraps of material!). I was planning on washing daily and can now see that's not going to be necessary. Thanks for the great question and the tips!
We have 30 diapers, I wash them every three days (three and half days if its a busy week). Any longer than that and they start to smell and I start to worry about whats growing in them.
Thanks for all the feedback so far!
We had three dozen prefolds and washed every four days. Some have said that letting them sit longer than two days is questionable. I know that if you use a diaper service, they pick up the diapers once a week, so I felt fine about every four days.
I did not let diapers sit around with #2 on them–that goes in the toilet (after your child is eating solid foods). If the diapers get too messy and the poop does not just fall off the diaper and into the toilet, you can always get flushable diaper liners if you want to avoid dunking your diapers. I had to dunk a few times and I did not enjoy it! If it had been a regular thing I'd have ordered the diaper liners without hesitation.
The idea of buying more diapers than you need so you have the time to line dry them between loads is a good one!
This is fabulous advice! Does anyone have advice on different kinds of cloth diapers: all in ones, pocket diapers, etc, or brands? Or is there another post already about this topic? Thanks!!
We have loads of great diaper posts! Check out our diaper duel between prefolds and pocket diapers and look over our favorite eco-friendly diaper websites. You can also find cost comparisons between disposables and cloth. And there's more where all of that came from! Simply use the blue search box right below the ad in the top right corner. Thanks for visiting!
To add to Joy's comment, you could also just click on "Diapers" under "categories" on the left to read all of our diaper posts.
I usually do a load of diapers on Tuesdays and Fridays. I hang them to dry and never have a problem running out of diapers. I use pockets and have a decent amount. I always dump and rinse the poopy diapers and really have never noticed an odor problem. However, once it starts to get more humid and we don't have the heat on, I will probably need to add an extra wash per week so the dipes have longer to dry.
I have BG OS and I just added some FB OS to the mix. I do laundry about every other day. No Smell issues really. I use a regular trash can with the wahmies pail liner and it works great.
Baby number two is on the way and I am going to using a mix of prefolds, fitteds, and AIO's. I think I may have to do laundry loads more often just bc I will have two in cloth and I do not want the loads to be too large, I do not see myself running out of diapers.
I live in the northeast so it is COLD! But I can not wait until it warms up a little bit bc I want to try to start drying the diapers outside, in the sun–this will be an exciting event in my life;)
we wash every three days. we use a dry pail and just rinse the soiled ones, and we actually leave the lid open–the air combined with sprinkled baking soda actually keeps odors at bay.
I wash about every 3 days. Sometimes more like 3 1/2 to 4 days. I haven't had smell issues. My kid eats A LOT of fruit and does not have poops that fall into the toilet, so I use liners, but that still doesn't always prevent poop from getting on the diapers. I rarely toilet dunk though. My sister toilet dunks and says she often goes as long as a week without problems. If you are just starting, I would try every other day, and then go from there. I started every other day, and quickly realized I could stretch to 3 days without problem. I do have lots of diapers, though, and am able to line dry when the weather is nice, which also helps with smell issues, by the way.
I wash diapers every other day. We put solid poops in the toilet, and then always wash poopy diapers out in the sink before we put them in the diaper pail. We sprinkle baking soda into the pail after every few diapers, and don't have odor problems. Our little guy is 10 months old and has been in cloth diapers since he was born. It's been so much easier than we had thought it would be!
We have 36 prefolds and now that baby is almost 3 months we wash every 5 days. But I have to say, I prewash them at home by hand to get rid of smell and hang to dry until it's laundry day.-
I've never heard of anyone else doing this so maybe there's a reason, but after a few weeks of using cloth diapers I started washing the wet-only diapers with the rest of our laundry (I do a wash every 2-3 days anyway). I keep the #2 diapers (after dumping & rinsing if necessary) in a closed bucket until I had enough for a small load. After 2 years I've never had any issues. If I wasn't going to do a wash in more than a day or so I'd usually rinse the wet #1 diapers in used bathwater or something similar. When I got close to a load with the #2 diapers (usually a week to 10 days) I'd throw the #1 diapers in also.
Especially in summer I'd sometimes air dry the rinsed diapers on branches in the backyard before tossing them in bucket or hamper. (In Texas they'd be completely dry in an hour or 2)
We use pocket diapers and I wash them every 3 days, sometimes 4. Basically when I run out of clean ones, I throw them in the machine.
We do use disposables at night because my kids are super soakers at night. I am not brave enough to use cloth at night because I value my sleep and would hate for a leak to wake them (and me) up.
We do what has been said above: poop goes into the toilet and rinse in sink, ones with just pee go directly into the pail.
I am so glad I saw this – I just started cloth diapering regularly, I was very unorganized at first and would use cloth them disposable. I just washed diapers yesterday and threw in another load today. My little wet bag wouldn't hold any more and I thought I needed to wash more often. I am so glad to read that I can go 2 or 3 days without problems. I will need to get more covers – I have 4 covers and 16 prefolds. I have never used them all as I am just getting started. Here goes to full-time cloth diapering!

Having a private IP address on the internet can keep your online activity anonymous. What sites your visit, what you download/upload, who you chat with, the contents of your emails, and even your physical location can be discovered and hijacked while you surf the net with your real IP, especially on public networks. A private IP from a VPN service does a couple of things.
- It replaces your real IP with a VPN IP
- It passively protects you against deep packet searching, spying, and identity theft by making you anonymous online
- It actively protects you against full-on hacks with VPN tunneling and SSL encryption
- It can bypass firewalls, unblock sites, and even speed up you internet connection on restricted networks
Virtual private networks are a monthly service, and there are a variety of companies, with a range of packages. Each services has unique features and servers in different locations. Server location will affect the type of IP you have – for example, if you sign into a VPN server in The USA, you'll get an American IP address. The same would apply if you signed into a server in The UK – you'll get a British IP address. Prices will vary from less than $10 dollars a month, to more than $20, depending on the service you choose. Number and reliability of servers, as well as customer support will of course influence this price.
Best VPN services
+ Hide My Ass for Privacy and Features
Hide My Ass is a very popular VPN service because it takes care of just about everything. First off, it has lots of free stuff for being anonymous online.
- Free Web Based Proxy
- Free Link Cloaker (for anonymous site linking)
- Free Anonymous Uploading
- Free Open Proxy List
They've of course got a ProVPN service as well. With 37 country IP address, over 200 VPN servers, and 22500 IP addresses, they've got the most comprehensive network of private IP addresses I've ever come across. They allow P2P and torrents, have their own Wiki forum for troubleshooting, and even a 30 day money back guarantee if this is your first time signing up. You can choose servers based on speed, or based on how many users are signed in. You also get free server switching, unlimited bandwidth, and VPN protocols or iOS/Android/Windows/Mac/Linux. It's easy to see why I've got HMA listed for features.
As for privacy, they're also very clear. They DO NOT monitor your online activity. They're clear about that, and they've reiterated that point over and over on their blog, public forums, and even commenting on personal reviews and blogs. They're pretty cool about communicating with people reviewing their service. However, they're also clear about not supporting illegal activity. They do log in times you sign into servers, and if they receive complaints from individuals, the DMCA (The Digital Millennium Copyright Act – USA), or UK court orders, they can find you.
+ 12VPN For Customer Service and User Friendliness
This is a very easy to install VPN, with a great customer service team. Setup is super easy, and ticket-support customer service is clear, concise, and friendly. This is the VPN service I signed up for quite a few years back, and I've signed up again every year after that. It's reliable, its fast, and getting started only takes a few minutes. There's a VPN servers in Japan is something that makes them quite unique from other VPN services. The majority of their servers are in The US and Europe however. $79 for 10 US city locations is a great price as well. For users seeking VPNs for less common smart phone or computer operating systems, data encryption upgrades, or for users in China/The Middle East, this is the service for you.
+ StrongVPN for Overall VPN Service
With plans starting at $55 per year, and going up to $30 per month, you can imagine that there's a wide variety of choice in between. Some plans feature just one or two VPN server country locations, and some plans offer 19. Dedicated IP addresses as well as dynamic IP addresses are available. They provide support for Nokia, Mac, Linux, DD-WRT, Windows, iOS, and maybe others (but who really uses anything else?). SSTP, PPTP, L2TP, IPSec, and OpenVPN means they have pretty much all their bases covered. They also have live support and a 7 day money back guarantee. Need I say more? Oh yeah, and they're cool with torrents.

I am about to begin a partial DIY bathroom remodel and have a question about how 3/8 drywall and hardibacker come together in harmony.
Consider tiled walls above a tub in a bathroom with painted walls. The tile comes up high enough to make the area functional as a shower with a curtain on a rod. How do the drywall, backer under the tile, and tile meet? Isn't most backer thinner than 3/8s? Does the rounded-over edge tile lay on the drywall by a very small amount? Can someone help me understand how that comes together, pls? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Where Drywall and backer board come together: In most cases it's just a taped joint. If the backerboard isn't flush with the drywall, you can sometimes use felt strips on the studs to fur the backerboard out. |
- Posted by bill_vincent (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Thu, Nov 9, 06 at 18:28
There are two thicknesses of CBU that are normally available-- 1/4" and 1/2". The 1/2" is what should be used for wall tile, and the sheetrock should also be 1/2". The two should meet under where the last tile will fall, and it should then be no problem whatsoever to transition the two. |
- Posted by toronto_doug (My Page) on Sun, Nov 12, 06 at 12:10
What Bill describes is how I did mine, and both the drywall and backerboard (USG Dens-Shield in my case) were 1/2". I made the joint fall about 1 1/2" below the top of the tile, taped the joints with mesh tape, and covered the joint with thinset in the same manner one would use drywall compund on a drywall joint. I also did the same for backerboard-to-backerboard joints, and let the joints dry before doiing the actual tiling. One tip: don't let any thinset get on drywall that will remain exposed - it will be hard to sand/finish. Another option - here (Canada) I've seen a fiber-based backerboard (Fiberock) also from USG that can be finished like drywall. Using this you could eliminate the joint. I believe the product documentation indicates you can use this in wet areas (i.e. showers) but of course you would need to confirm this. |
- Posted by bill_vincent (email@example.com) on Sun, Nov 12, 06 at 13:45
Yes, it can be used in wet areas. It's basically hardi board made by another manufacturer. |

No Link or Princess Zelda cosplay costume is complete without a pair of Zelda 'Twilight Princess' Vans. These slip-on Vans are colorfully decorated to resemble the shield carried by Link in the game 'The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.'
The look of these shoes is impeccable, with the colors expertly painted, and so bright that they nearly pop off of the canvas. The paint itself is waterproof, allowing gamers to fly their geek flag regardless of the weather. The Zelda 'Twilight Princess' Vans were created by KyozoKicks, an apparel company specializing in video game clothing and shoes. These shoes are for hardocre Zelda fans only, as indicated by their surprisingly high price. You'll need to have an immense love for the Triforce, and $195, in order to sport these bad boys.

Get The Biggest Compilation Of Professional 800+ eBay Templates
And Create Eyeball-Grabbing Listings...
...Which Attract EAGER eBay Shoppers
Pulling In MORE Sales Than Ever Before!
"YES, I Want to Join Spicy Auction Templates Community Right Now!"
From: Andrew Minalto
eBay Powerseller
TWF Moderator, CEO of SpicyAuctionTemplates.com
Dear eBayer,
Have you been googling, yahooing and looking all around the Internet in vain in a search of professional and affordable eBay templates? Let me stress this - both professional and affordable? And at the end you've come to a conclusion that is quite weird but - it's true…
… while eBay has grown and added tons of new tools and resources to their site to help sellers like YOU turn a profit, they've somehow completely ignored their selling templates!
In the last 10 years since it launched, eBay has grown like wildfire!
Today, over 2 Million people shop on eBay each day, spending over $60 BILLION in year 2009 - that's over $2000 per second! (approx. £1370)
Today, eBay is more competitive than EVER before for sellers…
…yet eBay is still offering pretty much the same old plain, unprofessional, and… let's just say it… ugly selling templates it has for YEARS.
Up until now, if you want a good-looking selling template for eBay to help you showcase your items for sale, you'd have to pay £200 to £1200+ to a designer or a "coder" to custom design one for you.
For the majority of people, this isn't an option - especially if you're just starting out.
But finally, there's a simple, easy-to-use, affordable solution
for eBay sellers who want to ramp up their eBay sales - S A T !
I'm talking about a smoking hot new resource called "Spicy Auction Templates" - and people from all over the world are talking about it!>
See for yourself - here are a few of SAT members e-mails...
I Was Searching For Professional
eBay Templates And What I
Discovered Was SHOCKING….
Templates offered by eBay were nonsense. I'd better use MS Paint to create something more appealing and I don't doubt the result wouldn't be that bad after all!
As I kept on selling more and more products on eBay auctions I was spending more and more money on image hosting offered by eBay - money that ate away my profits! (And who LIKES watching his potential profits not reaching his account, right?)
Soon enough I started to use other services offering listing building automation, auction templates and image hosting on their servers.
But here's what he's learned about such solutions.
Hopefully I can help YOU from throwing your time and money away on them and repeating my costly, time-consuming mistakes!
I Sold My Successful Business,
Invested ALL Savings and Gathered
Our Team to Get This Incredible Project Done…
I decided to create professionally designed templates for EVERY single eBay product category and put ALL my auction selling knowledge in videos for ONE SIMPLE REASON:
I wanted to fill the vacuum in this product niche - and - create a successful business.
And soon enough there was a buzz about our project - "Spicy Auction Templates" - and our members are taking advantage of this new resource!
Provided you know at least how to copy and paste -
you WILL be able to enjoy the kind of eBay
sales increase and satisfaction other SAT members do!
And remember - you DON'T have to:
...Be a PowerSeller
...Know the listing technical side inside out
...Having been spent years on eBay
...Spend hundreds of dollars on useless products…
Forget about using eBay's standard "plain jane" selling templates - the exact same templates 99.99% of other eBay sellers are using…
Forget spending loads of money on a single template - you'll probably see the niche getting oversaturated in a while and start selling new products…
Spicy Auction Templates is a revolutionary one-stop
online resource that contains LOADS of absolutely
stunning eBay selling templates!...
...in addition - EVERYTHING you need to upload,
modify and manage them,
plus TONS of marketing advice and secrets!

Spicy Auction Templates spits out custom HTML code that you can easily cut-and-paste into eBay in a matter of seconds!
This foolproof system does absolutely ALL of the work for you…
Our Designers' Team Worked 5 Months
NON-STOP to Create the LARGEST

Party Auction Listing Design Provider!

Take a Look At Introduction Video
You'll find Inside Your SAT Members Area
As you can see, Spicy Auction Templates contains EVERYTHING you need - all of the tools, resources, and step-by-step training - to create eye-catching eBay templates that sell your items like hotcakes over and over again…
...And create limitless streams of eBay income!
If You Think This Ultimate eBay Sellers' Resource Is
Going To Cost You A Fortune...
... You're In For A VERY Pleasant Surprise!
Let's do a quick comparison - last time I checked, hiring a designer or a "coder" to custom design an eBay selling template for you would set you back £200 to £1200+.
Or you could pay £267 or more for one of the comparable eBay template creation tools on the Internet that only provide you with a SMALL FRACTION of the resources, training, and support that Spicy Auction Templates does.
The other option is for you to shell out £197 or more buying up all kinds of expensive eBay books and "how to" guides promising to show you how to code your own stunning selling templates…
Books that will most likely only sit on your shelf gathering dust.
Frankly, none of these options really seem fair to me. So I figured out a way to provide you with a REAL bargain…
...I don't want to sound arrogant but I think the price you pay - the one-off payment of just £29.95 - is ridiculous for everything you get in the Spicy Auction Templates members area!...
Don't Decide Now - Just Try
Everything At My Risk!...
Your success using the Spicy Auction Templates system is completely guaranteed
In fact, here's my 100% Better-Than-Risk-Free-Take-It-To-The-Bank Guarantee:
That means you can try out the ENTIRE Spicy Auction Templates system completely at my risk, while you see if the tools and resources inside will work for you or not.
And if the eBay selling templates you create using our easy "point-and-click" system don't help you produce more eBay sales than you're making right now, then I lose out - not you.
So as you can see, there's absolutely no risk whatsoever on your part. The burden to deliver is entirely on us.
This is why…
You Really Can't Afford Not To
Invest In Spicy Auction Templates!
Go ahead and grab this incredible resource that both beginner and expert eBay sellers turn to to attract MORE eBay shoppers to their listings and make MORE sales on eBay than ever before…
Your bank account will thank you!

37 categories...-- along with video lessons and secret
insider's marketing strategies never ever released before...

In Focus: Gilling's Journey, From Denmark To Seattle
Washington earned its first Pac-12 weekend sweep of the season, knocking off Utah on Sunday morning at Alaska Airlines, 63-51.

Washington returns to Alaska Airlines Arena this weekend to face Colorado (9-8, 2-4) on Friday evening at 7 p.m. and Utah (6-11, 0-6) on Sunday morning at 11 a.m
Washington sophomore guard was one of 20 players on the John R. Wooden Award Midseason Top-20 List.
Washington stayed with the No. 9 team in the country in a competitive back and forth game, but eventually fell to Oregon State, 75-67.
Washington pushed their Pac-12 record over .500, earning a 91-69 road win against Oregon.
Washington continues Pac-12 play this weekend with a trip to face Northwest rivals Oregon and Oregon State.
Washington bounced back from Friday's frustrating loss to Stanford, beating California 79-77 to earn the weekend split against the two teams picked to finish first and second in the Pac-12.
Washington had their chances to make it two seasons in a row beating a ranked Stanford team at home, but a banked in 3-pointer in the final minute helped the Cardinal prevail, 60-56.
Washington returns to Alaska Airlines Arena this weekend to open the home Pac-12 schedule against Stanford and California.

posted by: 4eagles on 02.17.2013 at 11:31 pm in Appliances Forum This unit is a year old but has been on display for six months, I was told they are replacing it with one that has an android interface which I have no interest in. They are offering a 3000 discount off list price which puts it much closer to the price of electrolux and bosch units which were my other considerations.
Which model did you have if you don't mind me asking? NOTES: <none>

The People's Operator (TPO), a UK Based Charitable mobile network has announced that they intend on launch its first contract and Sim-only deals in Q1 and has inked a new partner deal with the Childrens' Heart Federation.
According to CEO Alex Franks who told Mobile Today, the MVNO had signed up a number of new partners since its launch, with further partnership deals with major organisations in the pipeline.
When the MVNO launched, it had already agreed to work with Childline and the NSPCC as its charitable partners and added unions Unite and GMB.
The operator, which uses Everything Everywher's network and Transatel as its MVNE, launched in November as a Pay-As-You Go MVNO and they donates 10% of a consumer's bill to an organisation or charity of their choice with an additional incentive of an annually donation of 25% of the companies profits to charities, including the NSPCC and Childline, via an independent charity, the TPO Foundation.
TPO is also targeting the business sector. Companies can fulfill their CSR commitments with 10% of all call, text and data spend directed to their nominated cause. Franks said: 'We are creating an ecosystem of partners we can collate and use as a distribution channel. The unions and the NSPCC, for example, have huge membership bases.'
The MVNO is also targeting schools and colleges. Franks said the MVNO would consider a wide range of partnerships. 'As long as the end game is to support good causes we will look at it. We do not want to be seen as a niche player. Our aim is to be a big player in the telco market. We are built to be lean and profitable whilst supporting good causes. We are not going to compete with Lycamobile or Lebara but we think we are keenly priced.'
