From the sink and stovetop? Mine didn't. I paid for square footage used, not the whole slab. I would have liked to have had the cutouts though. I called them not long after the counters were finished and asked about getting a 12"x20" piece for another cabinet, and the lady quoted me the same price per foot I paid for the counters, which made it almost $300. Not worth it to us so we went with something else. I figure she didn't want to mess with us after I insisted they come out and template. |
Follow-Up Postings:
It may be a regional thing. Here in So Cal slabs are usually sold full only. You pay for the whole slab, and pay the fabrication price on the installed sq. ft. , plus lin. ft. of edge detail. Any left over material is yours to keep. |

We dug ours out of the dumpster. If we used them for anything else, we'd have to pay for someone to finish the edges, so may not be worth it. But they are sitting in the garage, just in case we want to use them. |
ctycdm is correct. our slabs purchase was separate from our fabrication. We kept all the extras. Connemara is a semiprecious stone, each sq ft is expensive:) Now I need to find a way to use it... |
I didn't get mine. Like you, we paid for what we used. I wouldn't have wanted them though. Super heavy and the real cost is in the fabrication so finish the edges. I don't know what I would have done with them. |

We did not get the cut out for the sink which was our only one. I don't know what I would do with it if I did have it. On a side note. Don't forget to pull the protective plastic off the front of your ge spacesaver. I just moved our spacesaver into the kitchen from our temp kitchen in the dining room. Since the lighting in the kitchen is much better than the dining, I just noticed the plastic film and pull it off. I've had this more than 6 months, lol. |
Thanks debrak, the film is still on mine. I thought we'd probably move it in and out one more time and I was leaving the film to protect it a little. I don't know what I'd do with the pieces either, just would have been nice to have one of them to do that top. |
My fabricator made me several trivets with the sink cutout and another leftover piece. |

Yes, I have both. One finished and one not. The finished one was the Blue Austral (laborite) that was "gifted" a few days after the install. I had not had a "real" bedside table for 8 years. I'd used a wrought Iron stand and wished often I could find a suitable top for it. I could not believe my eyes when my fabricator walked through my door with it. It fits my nightstand perfectly and I LOVE It. The other is from the dark green Costa Esmeralda and I have half of it enchanced to see how it changed the color and the other half natural. That's why I have it...they also gave me the material to enhance/seal it should I want to do that down the road. Don't want to at this time, but you never know what I might want to do down the road. I've taken a picture of my nightstand cutout. Throughly happy with my granite! |
Also in S.CA and we paid for square footage used. I think the difference is that we used a one-stop-shop rather than buy it at A and have it fabricated at B. We didn't get the cut-out, but I suspect if we'd asked, they would have given it to us. They don't really have a use for them other than breaking them up to give out as take-home samples for the remaining slabs. In my last woodworking class, a woman went to a local granite place and gave her a scrap piece for the night table she built. At the time I had no idea about granite fabrication, but I think now that they must have finished the edges for her. FYI - I think it's standard to not come out and template for small pieces, and 12 x 20 is pretty small. |
I also paid for the granite used. My fabricator gave me a "gift" of one square hot plate made from the one of the cut outs. |

We sent our sink cut outs to Columbia Gorge Stoneworks where they were used to make wall plates to match our backsplash. The rangetop cut out is in the garage along with a bit of other remnants from our slab. We may use it someday to redo the powder room vanity. Other remnants were used for the fireplace surround when we redid our family room. |
we got all the leftovers from our slab... they cut them into pieces that my dh is going to use to make outdoor table tops |

FWIW, I had to buy the full slabs of Danby marble; fabricator was not affiliated with stone yard. We only used 4, so fabricator is storing all the remnants as well as the full slab for me. He agreed to store them free-of-charge, because I was pretty sure I'd eventually use them for various projects. I think it's been worth it for him, because I've already paid him to make a small table and to do my parents' master bath sink and vanity using 2 of the remnants. Someday, after years and years of abuse, I may have him make a new island top. It's been a win-win. I'd recommend this to anyone who has too many remnant pieces to store at home, and a good relationship with their fabricator. |
Madeine616 - where did you source your Danby slab and which fabricator? Sounds like a great situation. |
- Posted by Madeline616 (My Page) on Sun, Dec 16, 12 at 15:53
Hi mxgmom, I live in Southern Louisiana, but I'm from the Northeast, that's why I knew about/wanted Danby. My fabricator is local to me, and the slabs were from North Lousiana. Please feel free to email me, I"m happy to share all the details! |
- Posted by Madeline616 (My Page) on Sun, Dec 16, 12 at 20:38
Hi Mgxmom, I tried replying to yur email, but got a send failure. Hopefully, you'll check the thread again. Here's my response below: I drove a few hours to check out my slabs in person. They don't photograph well, and I'm glad I made the trip, because they're really gorgeous in person as the salesperson had promised. There are things (like pits and cracks) that won't show up in pics, so unless you really trust the stone yard, I'd go in person. I looked at a number of slabs, some in pics and some in person, and my fabricator drove 2.5 hours to a stone yard to check out some slabs and make sure they were top quality. He was a totally objective party, and I was grateful that he helped me in my selection. For that reason, I'd suggest finding an excellent fabricator and getting slabs wherever you find the most beautiful ones. Good luck--Danby is wonderful marble!! Feel free to email with any questions, and I look fwd to seeing your pics. Best, |
I asked my fabricator to give me a small piece (4x4 to 6x6 square) to take when shopping flooring, backsplash, paint. I He willingly brought it; it had come from my sink cutout. It has been great! Even at 6x6, with 3 inches thick, it is kinda heavy. I would NOT recommend any larger. Not all fabricators have room to store your larger remnants. I had three great bids for our granite from reputable fabricators. The one I selected agreed to keep my granite remnant for 6 months free of charge. Then he would take ownership of it and use it on another job. The others could only keep it a week to 10 days before they would do the same. I did ultimately go with the one who kept my granite and six months later we decided to use it for the upstairs bath. Well worth it. |
I remember -- years ago; it was pre-granite countertops -- seeing Corian cutting boards at the Southern Christmas Show (or maybe it was the Southern Spring Show, and we realized that the fabricators had kept the cut-outs from kitchen sinks, honed down the edges, popped in a circle for a hand-hold . . . and they were selling them for a pretty good price. Brilliant use of "garbage". Personally, I can think of a number of things I could do with the cut-out from a sink (especially if it's a large sink). Tabletops are a natural choice, but I wouldn't mind having a circular cut-out that could go on top of a Lazy Susan in the middle of my breakfast table. Coasters. Trivets. I can see that you might need to pay to have it cut down into whatever you want. You've paid for your granite, and it should be yours. |
Thanks for the thread because I was not thinking about asking for leftovers until I read this thread. Good timing too because we just template'd a granite slab for my small bar tops. When I asked if I could get some trivets out of the leftovers, the installer said, "of course!" We'll end up having trivets of 8", 10", and 12" (can also be turned into lazy susans), as well as a 12x18" cutting board. |
Oh BTW, I just received the invoice and the extra pieces are not cheap! I'll probably use every single piece of them. Or, even if not, I'm sure I'll enjoy staring at them because I love the stone. :) Thought I should just post to remind people to ask about the cost so you don't get an invoice shock after work is done. |

Keeping Your Area Clean and Green Since 1992
Everyone knows where to go when it's time to recycle a week's worth of soda cans, beer bottles and newspapers. We all go through tons of plastic bottles, aluminum cans and cardboard boxes during the course of a calendar year, so it makes sense recycling companies handling such materials are easy to find. There's another class of substance that's equally ubiquitous, but much harder to find a recycling center for, which is urethane.
An incredibly versatile and durable material, urethane is used to create a number of essential household items, from rigid building insulation to flexible mattress filling. Unfortunately, its durability can pose significant, long-term dangers to the environment. So if you're looking to do your part in saving the planet, be sure to contact Reynolds Urethane Recycling Inc.
We've handled the polyurethane recycling needs of residents of Wisconsin, Illinois and part of Minnesota since 1992. Don't hesitate to call us or stop by our Middleton offices today.

Nima Skin Institute Clears Up Myths of Acne
Posted: June 10, 2010
Because June is National Acne Awareness Month, the Chicago acne treatment specialists at Nima Institute would like to help clear up certain myths associated with this condition. Nima Skin Institute is a medical and cosmetic dermatology facility located in Chicago. Acne treatment is one of the medical treatments they provide for patients.
Myth 1: Because acne is a skin condition only affecting the outside surface of the body, many people believe that it is merely a cosmetic condition.
Truth: Acne is a medical condition caused by the chronic inflammation of the hairs and hair follicles. It is often treated by over-the-counter products, but in more severe cases, prescription medication is prescribed by a dermatologist.
Myth 2: People believe that chocolate and oily foods are main contributors of acne because oily skin is often considered a direct cause for acne breakouts.
Truth: There is no proven correlation between chocolate and fried foods causing acne; however, because acne often involves the formation of clogged pores, comedogenic, greasy products can result in acne breakouts.

What I want: To get rid of the center post holding up my patio roof.
Why: We just added a beautiful water feature, and the center post ruins the view. What I have: A 16 ft 4x8 horizontal beam mounted on three vertical 4x6 posts, one on each end and one in the center. The patio roof itself consists of asphalt shingles on plywood on 4x6 rafters on 16 inch centers. The beam is 13 feet from the house. The top of the beam (and the bottom of the rafters) is 90 inches above the concrete slab patio. The bottom of the rafters on the house end is 101 inches.
Some ideas for your comments if you would be so kind: 1- Just knock the center post out. Probably not a good idea. 2- Reinforce the 4x8 beam by bolting a 16 foot long 2x8 onto it. Reinforce the 4x6 posts by bolting a 2x6 onto each one for its entire height. Maybe even dig under the corners of the slab and pour a concrete footing. Then knock out the center post. 3- Add a 4x6 at a 45 degree angle starting 3 feet from each end of the beam to 3 feet below the top of each post. Maybe reinforce the posts and slab like in #2. Then knock out the center post. 4- Suspend the center from a (very) large helium balloon...never mind. Any advice, ideas, or references to appropriate resources will be greatly appreciated. |
Follow-Up Postings:
The best solution is actually pretty simple: Add 2 new posts about 4 feet in from the outside. This is sort of like your scenario in option #2. Don't put additional 2x material onto the 4x beam. There is no point to this. You will need to create footings under the new support posts. The span between the new posts can be 8' Then knock out the old center post. That will still maintain structural integrity and give you a better view. |

What CB to get ?

CB's don't suck, they work exactly like an inexpensive 5 watt radio in low band frequencies are expected to work.
Find the least expensive CB you can and get it, any differences in price have little to do with real quality and are due more to bells & whistles that you probably don't need. It's much more important with CB to make sure your antenna has a good ground plane, and is correctly installed and tuned.
HAM is nice but if you do a lot of runs with Front Range or CO4x4 you'll find that few of them have Hams and most do have CB's.

The first few weeks of the NHL season are a critical time. It's when some coaches will earn a vote of confidence from management following a quick start, and others will find themselves hitting the unemployment line after a disastrous beginning to the season. Here's a look at four NHL head coaches that will be feeling the heat to get off to a strong start in order to avoid taking a gig as a TSN analyst before mid-season.
Marc Crawford – Dallas Stars
Crawford has the advantage of being general manager Joe Nieuwendyk's first hire when he took over the duties last summer. With this offseason's exodus of aging superstars, one could bet that Crawford will be given a long leash in an effort to right this ship of uncertainties in Dallas.
Marc Crawford could lose his job if… the Stars don't improve on their atrocious 254 goals against from a season ago. A healthy and focused Kari Lehtonen will help, but the Stars are a solid No. 1-3 defenseman away from realistically improving their blue line.
Scoring goals was not a problem for the 2009-10 Stars, the club boasted six players that scored at least 20 goals; Loui Eriksson (29), James Neal (27), Brad Richards (24), Jamie Benn (22), Brendan Morrow (20). A lame penalty kill (27th) and poor performances on the road (14-20-7) ultimately killed any hope of a resurgence in Dallas, and Crawford will be challenged to improve both of those areas.
Todd Richards – Minnesota Wild
The duo of Richards and GM Chuck Fletcher was supposed to herald a new era of up-tempo offense in Minnesota. Sure, the Wild were a faster team in 2009-10 but they sure as shit didn't score much. The Wild were among the worst even-strength teams in terms of scoring last season, and managed a grand total of only 219 goals as a group – despite owning the league's 10th best power play. The Wild's saving grace was scheduled to be their $6 million man in goal, Niklas Backstrom, but the 32-year old Finnish keeper struggled all season while turning in the worst statistical performance of his 4-year career.
Todd Richards will lose his job if… he can't find a way to spark Minnesota's anemic offence. The addition of two-way players like John Madden and Matt Cullen should help sure up the Wild's defensive game, but more players are going to have to figure into scoring in order for the Wild to improve upon their 13th place finish from 2009-10. A healthy Pierre Marc-Bouchard would help, but his status remains uncertain.
Mikko Koivu was involved in 33.2.% of all of the Wild's goals last season, turning in 20 multi-point games in the process. A rebound from Martin Havlat and an entire season of the productive version of Guillaume Latendresse are in order, and some consistency from the likes of d-men Brent Burns and Cam Barker could ultimately help propel the Wild back into the competitive end of the Western Conference.
John Tortorella – New York Rangers
"Torts" is one of those coaches that media types love to push when he's hot under the collar. Sometimes, all it takes is a little push from Larry Brooks and BOOM!, Tortorella provides us with all the sound bytes we can handle. In 2009-10, Tortorella was much more entertaining to watch in the post-game interviews every night than his Rangers' play on the ice. An average regular season performance was lost on the Rangers when they failed to qualify for the playoffs by losing to the eventual Stanley Cup finalist Philadelphia Flyers in a shootout on the last day of the season. One could safely say that Glen Sather failed to address several of the team's glaring needs this offseason.
John Tortorella will lose his job if… Marian Gaborik gets injured. There's a hint of sarcasm there, but in all seriousness, this team could easily get lost in the competitive Atlantic Division on account of a lack of depth and no legitimate first line centre. Gaborik scored 19.2% of the Rangers' goals in 2009-10 and figured in on 39.3% of the team's total scoring; if he goes down there's not much behind to pick up the slack.
A step back in the standings would be a reasonable expectation for the 2010-11 Rangers, how far back that is may depend on what John Tortorella can get out of his rag-tag roster.
Ron Wilson – Toronto Maple Leafs
How bad would the Toronto Maple Leafs have to be in order for Brian Burke to give his good friend Ron Wilson his walking papers? Worse than last season might be the best answer, which would give Wilson another year to try and turn things around in Toronto. Although, if the Leafs come out of the gate as limp as they did a season ago then Wilson may be the first man on the chopping block.
Ron Wilson will lose his job if… it's meant to be. That's vague reasoning, I know, but think about this: despite a roster overhaul to begin 2009-10 and then another one just after mid-season, the Leafs never got better until it was far too late. Even then, their inspired play trailed off in the final weeks of the season, keeping the club at or near the bottom in both power play, penalty killing, goals for, and goals against. Changing the culture of a franchise is no simple task, but Brian Burke can only give the roster a makeover so many times before he looks to Wilson as a part of the problem and not a solution to it.

My previous faked tilt-shift shot proved quite popular so here's another one, also taken in San Francisco: this time, from Twin Peaks. The flag is at the junction of Market Street and Castro, about a mile away. We'd been up to Twin Peaks the night before to try to get some night shots of the city but were defeated by some of the densest fog my host could remember and he's lived in San Francisco for mumblety years.
I've mentioned before how much I like this lens. The green street sign near the flag is legible in the full-resolution version. I'd be able to tell you the price of petrol, except that Chevron weren't displaying it, that day.
I'm not sure if the effect I've created in this photo, with the diagonal band of focus, is actually possible with a real tilt-shift lens. To be honest, though, I don't much care!
I hope you like it. All comments and criticism appreciated, as always.

2 And he saith: I called, because of my distress, to Jehovah, And He doth answer me, From the belly of sheol I have cried, Thou hast heard my voice. | 2 He said: "In my distress I called to the LORD, and he answered me. From the depths of the grave I called for help, and you listened to my cry. |
3 When Thou dost cast me [into] the deep, Into the heart of the seas, Then the flood doth compass me, All Thy breakers and Thy billows have passed over me. | 3 You hurled me into the deep, into the very heart of the seas, and the currents swirled about me; all your waves and breakers swept over me. |
4 And I -- I said: I have been cast out from before Thine eyes, (Yet I add to look unto Thy holy temple!) | 4 I said, 'I have been banished from your sight; yet I will look again toward your holy temple.' |
5 Compassed me have waters unto the soul, The deep doth compass me, The weed is bound to my head. | 5 The engulfing waters threatened me, the deep surrounded me; seaweed was wrapped around my head. |
6 To the cuttings of mountains I have come down, The earth, her bars [are] behind me to the age. And Thou bringest up from the pit my life, O Jehovah my God. | 6 To the roots of the mountains I sank down; the earth beneath barred me in forever. But you brought my life up from the pit, O LORD my God. |
7 In the feebleness within me of my soul Jehovah I have remembered, And come in unto Thee doth my prayer, Unto Thy holy temple. | 7 "When my life was ebbing away, I remembered you, LORD, and my prayer rose to you, to your holy temple. |
8 Those observing lying vanities their own mercy forsake. | 8 "Those who cling to worthless idols forfeit the grace that could be theirs. |
9 And I -- with a voice of thanksgiving -- I sacrifice to Thee, That which I have vowed I complete, Salvation [is] of Jehovah. | 9 But I, with a song of thanksgiving, will sacrifice to you. What I have vowed I will make good. Salvation comes from the LORD." |
10 And Jehovah saith to the fish, and it vomiteth out Jonah on the dry land. | 10 And the LORD commanded the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto dry land. |

Honda Accord vs Nissan Altima
lilengineerboy Posts: 4,116For the Accord or for any other car, is it harmful to use the D3 to sorta use it as a manual shift, mainly to get more power when accelerating, and then switch it back to auto when you are up to speed.
D3 still is Auto, otherwise you would be stuck in 3rd (or 4th) gear. It just disables the OD. You aren't hurting anything by turning off the OD except perhaps fuel economy If you have your foot in it to accelerate, it isn't going to be in overdrive anyway, so its kind of a mute point.
If I am in a rental car on a 2 lane road and have to pass, I usually turn off overdrive so I don't have the delay of waiting for the thing to figure out to downshift in addition to the lag for the car to accelerate. -

madpistol Posts: 126Dealerships were Crown Nissan in Hoover, AL and Family Nissan in Oxford, AL. Oxford gave me the better price, but were incredibly pushy. Crown Nissan was very relaxing and professional, but I ultimately paid a little more to buy it from them. I would recommend Crown Nissan 100% and Family Nissan about 75%. Both are good dealerships, but Crown just struck a much better chord with me.
elroy5 Posts: 3,741Advantage Accord. No question "The choice you'd make if you were serious about driving".
http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/Drives/Comparos/articleId=123357 -
madpistol Posts: 126I agree with that article... I have no choice. I have not driven the coupes of either model. A lot of people say they like the Accord coupe better though, so I can't question that.
What I DO know is that I've driven the '08 Accord EX-L 4-cyl and '08 Altima 2.5 SL sedans back-to-back, and the Altima is quicker, more fuel efficient, has more features, and is more fun to drive. All of this combined with a lower price tag makes the Altima sedan an excellent value compared to the '08 Accord sedan.
The way I look at it, if you want a larger back seat and stability control, get the Accord. For everything else, get the Altima. I've had my '08 Altima 2.5 SL sedan for 3 months now, and I have no regrets at all. I sometimes wonder if I should have gotten the Accord, but then I think about all the stuff that the Altima comes with that the Accord doesn't. It makes me love my Altima even more.
One more thing...
'08 Accord = 8.9
'08 Altima = 9.3
It seems that most people agree with me. It's just too bad that most people don't do several months worth of research before they buy their cars. -
bvdj84 Posts: 1,721Well just be glad we got a 5spd, rather than a 4spd. Did you know that the Impala SS model with the V8 only has a 4spd transmission, now tell me whose skimping out on features, or no wait, necessities. New cars should atleast have a 5spd, its 2008.
So despite all of the Altima and Accord's flaws, they atleast are thinking of the basic requirements of the car. Certainly not skimping out on fit and finish or compromising anything to save money, because I don't feel that when I see these cars, when compared to "other" models. -
lilengineerboy Posts: 4,116New cars should at least have a 5spd, its 2008.
Its about having the engine in its efficiency band. The engine should be able to get to peak horsepower, peak torque, or peak economy. Adding gears in a marketing campaign to compensate for a razor thin powerband in the motor doesn't mean everyone needs to go around adding mechanical complexity to their transmissions.
I would worry more about fuel economy and performance measures than how many gears something has. -
bvdj84 Posts: 1,721Good points! But, Given that an engine with more gearing, could perhaps have more options in getting better efficiency, as it would be able to pick the best gear to be in, at a certain RPM, therefore allowing the engine to have more options. Its also more fun in a manual mode, or actual manual.
karpediem Posts: 46Given that an engine with more gearing, could perhaps have more options in getting better efficiency, as it would be able to pick the best gear to be in, at a certain RPM, therefore allowing the engine to have more options.
Yeah, they should invent a transmission that is continuously variable. This would be great, the car would never have to shift. It could provide a smooth, fast, efficient automobile. Someday they'll make it happen. -
karpediem Posts: 46Saw a couple Accord Coupes on the road today, they're alright looking...better than the sedan IMO. Altima coupe is alright too. I think the main reason both of them look a little odd to me is because they are still pretty big for a coupe. Still have to give props to both Nissan and Honda though for at least making them look attractive.....unlike the G6 coupe.
jam1kj Posts: 2I would have to say the Nissan Altima is your best bet. My family has been a nissan family since 1989. Here is a rundown of the family vehicles. 1989 Pickup(389,000)cops dont now how as it looked like a crush beer can cousin fell sleep coming home) 1997 Nissan Altima(340,000m) 2002 Nissan Maxima(140,000 miles when sold) 2006 Nissan Sentra (36000) 2007 Nissan Frontier(39,000). All these vehicle are still being driven never had any major repairs. So in October of 2008. I have come to the decision based on repeated reliality and performance and maitnence cost. To purchae either the 2008 or 2009 Nissan Altima 3.5 SE fully loaded or the 2008-2009 Nissan Maxima fully loaded as my birthday gift to myself.
swhonda Posts: 19Hi All!
I will (hopefully) be purchasing my first new car in the near future and wanted to ask for your feedback/advice. I am currently torn between the Nissan Altima Coupe and either the Honda Civic Coupe or the Honda Accord Coupe. I have test driven the Altima several times and love the car, but am unclear as to the long term reliability of the vehicle (what I've been reading on the forums about engine failures after 6 years is concerning...but I think most are coming from the first year of the redesigned sedan back in 2002). A plus for the Honda's is they come with a few more standard safety features like Electronic Stability Control/Vehicle Stability Assist. I would truly love to hear your advice and feedback. Thank you in advance for your time and advice, I truly appreciate it! -
madpistol Posts: 126In all honesty, you can't go wrong with either the Altima Coupe or the Accord Coupe. The only reason you should buy a Civic coupe, though, is if you wish to save money on gas. Either the Accord or Altima will be far more practical and enjoyable driving wise.
After the reviews I've read of both the Altima and Accord Coupe, I'd have to lean towards the Accord Coupe. It seems to have a more refined ride, and it has more usable space than the Altima. However, the Altima has a terrific CVT transmission w/ 6-speed manual mode, which will definitely add some excitement to the drive with that car.
If you want all-out thrills though, either the Civic Si coupe or the Accord V6 manual will give you all the thrills you need in a FWD coupe.
If you're looking for a more practical coupe though, I'd vote for the '08-'09 Accord EX 4-cyl. It's probably the best midsize coupe on the market currently. -
elroy5 Posts: 3,741You can read this comparison.
http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/Drives/Comparos/articleId=123357 -
bvdj84 Posts: 1,721I think the Altima sedan is a bit ugly. Looks really heavy, its rear end is huge looking!
The style is just a re-done, blown up version of the model before it. Blah, it does not give me any inspiration. Just my opinion though. Too each their own.
Now, the Altima coupe is a sharp looking ride and so is the Accord coupe.
Now, the Accord sedan, could use some slimming, and a bit more coupe inspiration, it would not have hurt anything. People want more style these days. -
thegraduate Posts: 9,731My only advice is to drive them all thoroughly!
One person's junk is another person's jewel. Nobody's trying to lead you wrong here, but opinions differ quite regularly. I hope you'll drive each of the cars you are interested in before deciding against them!
Best Regards,
TheGraduate -
swhonda Posts: 19Thank you all so much for input; I really appreciate it!!! Thank you thegraduate...you are so right! I find that each time I test drive a vehicle, I learn something new about it. I like the Altima, Accord, Civic (and now adding Civic SI) to the list in different ways. I hope to go for another round of test drives this week to help narrow down the list....but my goodness, this is a tough decision... :blush:
Thanks again! -
thegraduate Posts: 9,731
madpistol Posts: 126To add to what thegraduate said, the difference between driving a Civic and an Altima/Accord is very striking. Although you lose a few MPG in fuel economy, you gain lots of refinement, ride comfort, usable space, and engine power. The Civic is a lot of fun for a small car, but there's a reason our society is always moving for larger, more space efficient vehicles. Nearly everyone that I know values size and power over fuel economy. Since most cars are now pushing close to 30MPG highway with nearly 200hp, there isn't a good reason not to get a midsize sedan/coupe anymore.
The only thing that I can think of that's making people question weather a midsize is worth it over a compact is simply price. Is it worth it to the average joe to pay roughly $5-7k more to gain space, power, and overall comfort to the driver? That's the question that most buyers have to answer.
I've driven a compact sedan before, and now that I've moved to a midsize, I can say in confidence that I will never go back. The advantages of a midsize far outweigh the loss of fuel economy. -
mevander1 Posts: 43I am driving an 2009 Altima as a loaner car while my BMW 740I (1998. 75,000 miles) in in for service. I am impressed with the base 2.5S for it comes with quite a few features, It is reasonably fast for a 4 cylinder, CVT was easy to drive and awesome gas mileage! I have been getting 24 in the city and 35 on the highway (extended loaner). I also get to put regular gas vs. premium that BMW needs. Its is not a strong or built as well, however the 740i listed for over 70,000 when new and this one can be has in the high teens price wise. The only thing I would add would be a power drivers seat. The engine seems stronger/faster than the Accord/Camry 4 bangers
rostam Posts: 1I wonder if any of you actually driven these two cars because if you have and you are a driver, you can not miss the striking difference between them and that's the power and performance advantage of Altima vs Accord. Hondas and Toyotas are known for their sub par performance in comparison to their competitors in the same category. Maybe performance is not what you are looking for which is fine but even quality wise Nissan's competitive if not better. The shock's of the Altima is stiffer because of it's performance capabilities special if you have a V6. By far you get more enjoyment driving an Altima, I know I've a 2010 3.5SR CVT.
You should not ignore the enjoyment factor of a car unless you are purchasing a utility vehicle for work. By the way, Honda corporation is not such a clean honest company as you may think that are. This is from a friend of mine owning 3 Hondas saying that they avoid publicly issuing recalls by fixing it the next time you visit the dealer for something like an oil change. They would just inform you that they have replaced the part for you free of charge. -

grigol Posts: 17Ok, I'll try to explain
If you put yourself into Altima or Acura TL or Acura RDX (and many others), adjust your seat and steering column you noticed that you can hold a steering wheel with your right hand and rest your right elbow on a armrest.
Try the same in Accord.
For me it is very important feature for a long run.

Paleo dinner rolls may very well save my relationship with my oldest son. Wait…let me explain. My son Ben is generally a very sweet, smart, funny and easy-going young man. But give him gluten and he turns into a different person. Ben normally takes his paleo lunch to school but yesterday was "Take Your Child To Work Day" and he ended up eating the pizza lunch given to the kids at the event. Last night he had another one of his meltdowns and it proved once again the direct and very dramatic correlation between his mood and his diet.
We follow our paleo way of eating fairly strictly. In spite of the paleo dessert recipes on this site we really do not indulge in them frequently. Our desire for sugary snacks is not that powerful at this point. But when you have a middle school boy who is gluten intolerant (and quite possibly celiac) there has to be a balance between following what may be considered strictly paleo and helping him feel like a normal kid. During his meltdown Ben expressed he is often embarrassed that he eats differently from his peers. He NEEDS to have treats now and then and yes, he wants to eat bread. I want to train him to eat whole foods and take care of his body. But I refuse to allow food to become something that divides us and makes life more difficult. Middle school is hard enough!
In order to keep Ben on board with the program – to keep him from rebelling completely – I tried to come up with a recipe for a type of paleo bread he might enjoy. I have another recipe for banana cardamom bread but it uses almond flour and Ben is allergic to nuts. So this paleo bread recipe had to be nut free as well as grain and gluten free. The solution is a recipe that uses tapioca flour (also known as tapioca starch) as well as coconut flour and a few other, simple ingredients. Continue reading

They shouldn't both work. One should say "not compatible with this OS" or words to that effect.
Unfortunately, whichever is appropriate to your OS (Control Panel > System should tell you what you have), they are both prone to the same (MS) design flaw. If HDD errors are preventing the OS from booting, they can also prevent the CD from booting too (It checks the HDD as it boots).
You can however use an OS which doesn't check the state of Windows first, and salvage your personal data like this, before you "factory reset" the PC

Football: Evergreen Park one-ups Richards 35-34
By Tim O'Brien For Sun-Times Media September 27, 2013 10:12PM
Updated: October 30, 2013 6:30AM
Evergreen Park 35, Richards 34
Evergreen Park (5-0, 3-0) came out on top in the South Suburban Red clash, with Jacquet McClendon's interception with three seconds to go in the fourth quarter sealing the deal.
With 24 seconds left in the game, Evergreen Park backup quarterback Sean Ryan scored the game-tying touchdown, a 7-yard run. Matt Schulte's PAT put the Mustangs up 35-34.
Keyshawn Carpenter (39 carries, 140 yards, 2 TDs) carried the Mustangs offense when quarterback Jonathan O'Brien was knocked out with a broken left collarbone in the first half. McClendon finished with nine catches for 139 yards and two scores.
Hasan Muhammad-Rogers finished with 188 passing yards, 106 rushing yards and four TDs for Richards (4-1, 2-1). The second half featured six lead changes, Richards going up 34-28 when Muhammad-Rogers hit Spencer Tears for a 10-yard score with 4:23 remaining.
"We're 5-0, and we have lofty goals. I think this is one step closer to a state championship. Richards is the best team we will see all year. At Richards? That's our best win." — McClendon

Originally two houses, both purchased as a summer retreat by George Weare Braikenridge who then lived at Brislington, Bristol. He was a nineteenth-century merchant, who was also a collector of artefacts and amassed around 1,400 views of Bristol, most of which had been specially commissioned in the period 1820 to 1830. They were bequeathed to Bristol's City Museum and Art Gallery, and provide an invaluable record of buildings and streets dating back to the thirteenth century which have since been bombed, demolished, damaged, fallen into disrepair or altered beyond recognition. Work started in joining the houses by George was continued by his son. The buildings were named Claremont Villa. At some stage the buildings were sold, and became the offices of Clevedon Urban District Council. The plaque to the left of the driveway now calls the property Claremont Hall. It seems to have become flats.

Clevedon Pier B&W | Flickr - Photo Sharing!
To view this large on black please click here: www.psimage.co.uk/gallery2/order.php?image=734967659&... The picture was taken with a Sigma 10-20mm lens set at 10mm. The image was desaturated in Photoshop. Clevedon peir is only 5 miles off junction 20 of the M5 and well worth a visit. Info On Clevedon Pier from Wikipedia: Opened in 1869, it is partially constructed from second-hand railway lines, and is 225 m long and 14.5 m tall. The tidal range at this part of the estuary can be up to 14 m, and the landing stage at the end of the pier has several levels to allow boats to dock at all stages of the tide. On October 17, 1970, the final span of the pier collapsed during stress testing, where long polythene tanks resting on the pier were filled with water, to create a pressure of 50 pounds per square foot (2.4 kPa). The pavilions from the end of the pier were taken ashore for storage, in anticipation of eventual restoration. Sufficient funds were not forthcoming, however, and the first stage was simply to open the Toll House as an exhibition centre in 1980. After a long campaign by local people to raise funds for restoration (supported by Sir John Betjeman), the pier eventually reopened. One fundraising method was "sponsored planks" — small brass plaques with names or messages are inlaid on the wooden planks and benches, recording donations. The major breakthrough came in 1984, when English Heritage and the National Heritage Memorial Fund granted a million pounds towards the restoration, with smaller sums from Woodspring District Council and other funding bodies. The pier was dismantled and restored in Portishead dock. On May 27, 1989, the reconstruction of the pier spans and decking was completed and the pier was reopened to great fanfare. The pierhead was still shut, however, and it was not until May 23, 1998 that it was finally restored and opened to the public, thanks to funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund. In 2001 the pier was upgraded to a grade 1 listed building, the only other pier with this status being Brighton's West Pier (largely destroyed by fire and storms between 2002 and 2004). The landing stage at the end of the pier is occasionally used by ships (notably the PS Waverley), and it is a popular spot for angling. There is a cafe at the pierhead, and a shop selling souvenirs at the toll house. The upper floor of the toll house is occasionally used for art exhibitions. The pier is open every day of the year (except Christmas Day).

Everything you've read about Journey is true. It's a gorgeous, startlingly fresh, three-hour adventure that packs an incredible emotional punch without at any point using death rays to vaporise children. It's also two fistfuls of sand thrown in the face of Roger Ebert and the rest of the games can't be art crowd. If you own a PS3, you really owe it to yourself to play it.
However, for those of you who've already played it, and happened to cross paths with me in the desert this weekend, all I can say is: I'm so sorry.
Sorry that I probably spoiled the most artsy, cathartic gaming experience of this generation by buggering off to make a bacon sandwich halfway through. Sorry that when you fell off that massive viaduct I left you running around on the dunes below, chirping frantically, while I looked down sympathetically, chirped once, and then wandered into the next area. Sorry that my bladder control is so bad (laugh it up - I'm 35, it'll happen to you too) that I had to dash off during a vital sequence to take a leak. Sorry that I kept stopping to check my Twitter account.
It's my fault, not the game's - which is brilliant and moving and all that stuff. The internet has ruined me. I'm just not built for doing anything that takes a three-hour single sitting anymore. I faff about on my iPad while watching films. I text and tweet during football matches. I have no attention span, and almost uniquely Journey demands total attention for a comparatively large chunk of time.
The need to concentrate is compounded by the possible presence of another player. Whenever another cloaked explorer turned up I felt an initial thrill of discovery, swiftly followed by the sinking fear that I was bound to let them down, most likely with my inept swooshing around skills. It's just as well there's no voice communication, as I can only imagine how exasperated my floaty mentors would have sounded while trying to baby me up to the next ledge only to see me drift down like a soggy chip wrapper.

Thanks, Bonnie - I never realized a great-looking greenlady could be done this way. Those leaves are wonderful but I don't think I recognize them. What are they? Laura |
- Posted by louisiana_greetings z8LA (My Page) on Tue, May 23, 06 at 21:03
Those are rice paper plants, at first I thought they were gunnera,cuz they grow so large and very invasive. I have sent a bunch of them to different people here on the GW. My friend just bought me a gunnera, I can't wait to see if it will grow as good as the other. bonnie |
Thanks for the information. I have never before seen one so I am guessing they won't grow in southern Indiana. I am going to go look into it though! Laura |
I used the exact same techniqe, and created a garden girl.I imagine you could create a whole garden family, mom, pop, baby. Mine ended up reminding me of a flower child from the 70's lol. Cindy |
great photo! Does anyone have suggestions for how to do the faces? The masks I have seen seem kind of "bland". How did you all get your unique looks? Laura |
Hi all How to get a little more character into the face molds? The face mold is a great start. Unmold it very carefully, while it is still quite green, say 6hrs, this will depend on your temp and humidity. (pancake the mold to turn over so there is no banging it onto a hard surface). To practice I would make a couple of the masks up, and turn over at the same time. Since the molds are quite small it should harden up pretty quickly, but still be able to add some scrapes and even a couple embellishments with bonding agent and a slurry mix. Otherwise you can use a mix to make your own unique face free form, cast in sand or over a sand mold, about the size of the mold, let it harden and continue with the above technique. For me, I often work with a picture to help me with features, and am always learning along the way. Happy casting, Dena |
Thank you for the info! Could you or do you do this in layers to get a more individualize leaf look? I saw pics yesterday from some other posts. It looked like they might have done it in layers rather than all at once. I suppose that could be tricky to do. I think I'll try some experiments before I try using the real greenman face plaque. Thanks again! |
Doone, Here is a Face of Autumn that I did a couple years ago. This was one of the face masks, then added to it. The face had been in a sand cast bowl. Using already cast leaves I put a coiled glob (no better word) of new concrete mix and positioned my leaves, positioning them to stand or lay down with crupled newspaper and bits of foam, like stryo peanuts, until every thing was set up. Not sure if that is what you meant by 'layers' Dena |
Here is a link that might be useful: Behind the Fence Face of Autumn
Re: Gunnera and Rice Paper Plant. Gunnera's (Gunnera sp.) native range is in South America. They are a high humidity, cooler temperature, filtered sunlight plant. Think of them as an understory species.They are heavy feeders and require ample, consistent water, good drainage and shelter from wind to do their best. They grow very well in the Pacific Northwest but are "iffy" just about anywhere else in the U.S. Plant them where they can stay as cool as possible in the summer and out of direct sun. They make fantatstic leaf castings! Rice Paper Plant(Tetrapanax papyriferus/Aralia papyriferia) |
Bonnie - what do you mean by "trimming up a bit?" Do you use something (like a piece of concrete) to sand the edges?? Dena - What I meant by layers is that some of the greenpeople I've seen here look like the leaves have been cast separately and then attached. Meaning that the whole thing wasn't cast at the same time...the leaves look individualized...not meshed together. Does this make sense...I can't seem to describe what I mean.... Thanks nmgirl. I might try some caster bean leaves this fall. |
- Posted by louisiana_greetings z8LA (My Page) on Thu, May 25, 06 at 20:50
Yes, I use crete or steak knife to trim the excess crete off the edges of the leaf ( very carefully ) . And on my 1st one, I tried adding leaves, and I really don't like the turn out as much as the other way. I used fairly wet crete to add on leaves around the head. I was going to put something around the face to hide the crete, but I am a bit of a procrastinator, and I haven't did that yet :-) bonnie |
Doone, What you have described about the leaves is exactly how I did face of autumn. The leaves were cast separately, the mask was cast with the bowl, then as bonnie shows in her pic above they were attached. Perhaps it does not show in face of autumn as much because there are quite a few leaves. Dena |
OK. So, what kind of leaves are the smaller leaves that you used for the face of autumn? And, you used a coil of cement to attach the individual leaves, right? So, I'm assuming that it is safe to say that it won't fall apart too easily using this method? Sorry about all the questions...I just am one of those types that has to know everything before I start. Thanks so much!! |
Doone, Off to the right of many of the pictures in a webshots album will be a description of what is pictured. I used Lady's mantle and Japanese anemone (September flower I think is a more common name). I will have to go and find face of autumn but it has remained outdoors here in the northwest and I do not think it has fallen apart. Once the face bowl was the way I liked it, I arranged the leaves on the outside of the face as a dry run. Then used rolled newspaper and foam pieces to prop them so they could fit. I mixed up a batch of cement sand with bonding agent. Painted both the bowl and leaf with bonding agent, where the new mix would be placed to secure the leaf into place, and pattied a little coil around the face to smoosh the leaf into. I used a cheap brush dipped in water and bonding agent to further clean up the 'grouted'/cemented area. Spritzed the whole thing with water covered with plastic and let it sit at least a day. uncovered and just let it sit out. This one is too heavy to hang on a wall, and is meant to be propped against something or sitting on the ground. Look forward to seeing what you come up with. Experimentation is one of the greatest teachers. Dena |
Wow Dena! What a wonderful backyard...you have such a green thumb and artistic talent! I hope my backyard looks like yours someday! wow.... |

After almost four months at the head of Billings Public Schools, Superintendent Keith Beeman has worked to create more interactivity with the community and has found strong support from the school board as he runs the district with a no-nonsense leadership style.
He came to the district with an intense work ethic and expects district employees to work just as hard, said Barbara Bryan, board chairwoman.
"He has very high standards," she said.
Some district employees naturally respond to that; others don't, she said.
As standards and expectations evolve, some employees bristle at the change. But Bryan explained that just because a policy has been executed one way in the past doesn't mean it will continue that way.
Beeman acknowledged as much.
"I know that change can be unsettling," he said.
However, he said he hasn't asked anyone to perform a task or undertake a project that he himself is not willing to do.
His hope is to strengthen the public and business partnerships that the district developed while Jack Copps was superintendent, open more lines of communication with the community and build trust with city neighbors.
The district's first responsibility is to educate its students, he said. A strong relationship with the community will make that easier to do, he said.
Recently, the Billings Public Schools website has added new buttons on its homepage directing visitors to administrative reports that the board has received, links to an accountability section that will include the budget and a page where community members can give feedback on the district and offer suggestions for reducing the budget.
So far, the website has received two comments and one budget suggestion — that the district could save money by cutting down on travel expenses.
"I want our public, our community to have good information," Beeman said. "One of the things that resonated pretty clearly (in meeting with community members) was communication."
People want to be heard, he said. They also want the school district to be receptive. The increased interactivity on the district's website is the first step to doing that, he said.
Copps excelled at building community partnerships, Bryan said. Beeman has been just as deft.
"It's one of his real strengths," Bryan said.
It is a strength he had to show early, she added.
Just as Beeman took over in July, school supporters were gearing up a campaign to get voters to approve $12 million in federal bonds to be used for school maintenance. Beeman was almost immediately spending many of his evenings, often accompanied by Bryan, with business leaders, service organizations, community groups and others talking about the bonds.
It allowed him to make connections with business leaders while he was still new to town and to spend significant time outside the education community early in his tenure.
That's led to the creation of the Speakers Bureau, which will accompany SD2's new website functions as another method of community outreach.
Through the Speakers Bureau, district officials will visit businesses and community groups that have approached SD2 requesting more information about a specific topic or program.
Eventually, Beeman hopes to stream district board meetings, which air on Channel 7 each month, on the district's website.
"It will continue to evolve," he said.
Bryan said Beeman's transition into the district has been surprisingly painless, considering all the issues surrounding SD2, from the recently approved bonds to the rumored budget cuts at next year's legislative session to the upcoming union contract negotiations in February.
"It's gone as well as it could go," she said.

Makes about 40 canapés
- 1 teaspoon curry powder
- 1 cup canned unsweetened coconut milk*, stirred well
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice, or to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
- 1/2 pound bay or sea scallops
- 2 Asian pears**
- 8 to 10 kumquats**
- about 40 fresh coriander leaves, washed well and spun dry
- *available at Asian markets and some specialty foods
- **available at specialty produce markets
In a heavy 1-quart saucepan stir curry powder into about 1 tablespoon coconut milk until dissolved. Stir in 1 teaspoon lime juice, salt, and remaining coconut milk and simmer over moderately low heat 10 minutes, or until thickened.
Remove tough muscle from side of each scallop if necessary. If using sea scallops, cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Add scallops to coconut milk mixture and poach at a bare simmer until just cooked through but still tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove pan from heat and cool mixture. Transfer scallops with poaching liquid to a small bowl. Scallops may be poached 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
Cut pears crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick rounds and discard seeds and core. Cut rounds into 1-inch wedges and in a small bowl toss with remaining lime juice. Macerate pears, covered and chilled, at least 15 minutes and up to 3 hours.
Just before serving, cut kumquats crosswise into thin slices and arrange pear wedges, drained, on plates. Top each wedge with 1 kumquat slice, 1 coriander leaf, and 1 piece of scallop coated with poaching liquid.

ship of the line
ship of the line
Type of sailing warship, the principal vessel of the West's great navies from the mid-17th to the mid-19th century. It evolved from a tactic in naval warfare known as the line of battle, in which two opposing columns of ships maneuvered to fire their guns broadside against each other. Since the largest ships carrying the biggest guns usually won these battles, this led to the construction of more big line-of-battle ships, or ships of the line. These three-masted ships were often 200 ft (60 m) long, displaced 1,200–2,000 tons (1,100–1,800 metric tons), and had crews of 600–800 men; they usually had 60–110 cannons and other guns arranged along three decks. They eventually gave way to the steam-powered battleship.

Thousands of Bangladeshi protestors took to the streets of Dhaka Monday, demanding justice for 112 people killed in a garment factory fire.
The fire brought renewed attention to unsafe conditions in Bangladesh's factories.
Officials say the factory had no emergency exits or fire escapes. Workers who made it out of the building said they ran to the exits but found them locked from the outside.
Some of the victims were killed when they jumped from the eighth floor of the building.
The factory is said to have made products for major U.S. retailers like Wal-Mart, IKEA and others. Activists say those companies should be held responsible.
"The industry and parent brands in the U.S. have been warned again and again about the extreme danger to workers in Bangladesh and they have not taken action," Scott Nova, executive director of the Workers Rights Consortium, said.
Wal-Mart actually warned of the dangerous conditions at the factory last year in a letter posted on the website of the factory owner.

Final Thoughts
The Gateway NV5214u notebook is the third fastest notebook that I have ever tested and did it at a price only marginally higher than your typical netbook. The performance for dollar factor here is very impressive.
The big downside to the machine is its battery life, but if you want a long run time then you should get an ultraportable. This notebook is a powerful machine and will do all you want but play intense 3D video games.
