I was in Barnes & Noble last night, perusing the magazine section. I picked up a European magazine, I think it was Beautiful Kitchens (not the US Version) and I was thumbing through it. I'm still not settled on my back splash yet, so I find myself looking for ideas anywhere I can.
I noticed that only about 2 of the kitchens in the magazine had tiled back splashes. And no, these weren't French Country kitchens with plaster, etc....but rather contemporay kitchens. (I don't mean super sleek modern, either) They were using painted glass either just behind the cooking area, or all over the kitchen between the counters and the upper cabinets. It really struck me to see lack of tile. Although they did show some with clear glass or painted white glass slabs, but. some were hot pink, I saw purple too. What do you think? Do you think we are getting away from all the tile? When did the tile craze for all over the kitchen start? Growing up we didn't have anything back there. The very first kitchen I ever did (1991) had formica on the counters that continued up the backsplash (btw, I had pot drawers in THAT kitchen) and we never even thought about tile back there. I'm just curious what you think. I'm wondering if a smokey gray back painted glass panel is what I should be thinking about in my kitchen... Bee |

It would be easier to clean, but not as beautiful. Even though the glass is reflective, it still reads a bit flat to me. Tiles like your famous Arabsque, add dimension, variation and endless possibilities. Could you post pictures of kitchens that are not super modern with this type of Back Splash? A bit OT, I saw on your "saran wrap" thread that your beautiful Super White has gotten etched. I thought quartzites were supposed to be stronger than granites. What's up with the etching? It made me sad because I LOVED your thread about it being installed and was excited for you . |
Bee, I think that we might be. It's like stainless, granite, an island, or other items we've been conditioned to think we must have. It's not that there won't be beautiful tiled kitchens, but there are some of us [pointing wildly down at myself] that just don't want to deal with grout or visual distractions that some tiling can create. I'm not sure when tile because THE thing. |

Particularly in European magazines I don't know that tile ever had the same presence that it had in the US in mainstream magazines. (Also less presence in high-design/high budget US magazines, which featured tile, slabs, sheet glass and SS pretty equally). But you see really slick modern (Italian or German) kitchens rarely in the US magazines (except in ads), too. I have seen the short backsplash of 2-6 inches done by very respected designers, particularly in non-US magazines, all along, with or without something other than wall treatment above it. So, I think we may be moving away from it in the magazines, just like we are moving away from white kitchens in magazines. This doesn't mean there is anything wrong with them, just that we've seen a lot of it and the editors are ready to show us something different. |
I think countertop materials have become more expressive. With granites becoming more affordable and the wide variety that is now available, as well as the other beautiful stone and quartz choices, the top is becoming the star. I have two wet saws and my joke was always, "have wet saw will travel". I started doing backsplashes for my friends and family in the late 1990's. Back then I was always adding tile to dress up above the 4" formica back splash. The formica counter top (sometimes Corian) was usually very plain, usually a solid or white. Then I went through the period where I put something different up to provide a little movement or color against Uba Tuba granite (again above the 4" backsplash). I think it was about 4-5 years ago or so when I did my first tiling against granite with no 4" splash and that has been the way it has been ever since. That tiling has been mostly solid color tiling in a color that pulls one of the colors of the granite as other colors and busier granite became more popular. I am moving shortly and decided not to tile the backsplash in the new kitchen I am putting in. I have been attracted for a couple years to the plain simple lines of a nice stone material against the wall paint color and the cabinets and have never done one. My young electrician, who has done a lot of work for me, was discussing the switch/outlet layout in the backsplash area in the new kitchen and looked at me incredulously and said, "YOU are not tiling a backsplash!" I laughed and told him I had two bathrooms to tile so plenty of work for my wet saw! |

I've noticed a lot of marble backsplash/counters recently, in kitchen magazines. Very pretty, too :) |

I just got rid of my depressing yellowy cream formica-up-the-wall kitchen, so I didn't even think of not doing tile. It just seemed to fit with my house and new kitchen. That said, I've seen lovely kitchens with stainless steel or marble 'one piece' backsplash, as well as just paint as the backsplash. Do you what you love and feel looks best, Bee. You've got great taste, trust yourself! I think kitchens seem to be going toward a multi-style unique space - whatever fits you. Kind of like fashion today, right? There are so many options and ways to go. Here's a tile-less kitchen that just popped up on Houzz. It's supposed to be modern, but doesn't read very modern to me - more transitional. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Houzz tile-less kitchen
When did the tile craze for all over the kitchen start? Dunno, really. Maybe during the early Hygienic Period? |
Here is a link that might be useful: 1929 Kitchen
I thought Europeans picked their kitchens up and took them along when they moved. Seriously, the cabinets are pieces of furniture that go along. There fore it would make no sense to have tile installed because the next person's cabs might be different. Just a thought. |
That is a good point, dedtired.... |
Great point, very en pointe. :) Perhaps it's slightly in part economic conditions influencing upwards? Making a little austerity feel good even among those not feeling a pinch? Lack of actual need for tile? I know I didn't tile the drywall over the counters of my new kitchen in part because I was tired of spending money, in part because I needed more money for anything I loved; but it was the attractive simplicity of the counter meeting the plain painted wall that wraps the room that make me want to blow off a more elaborate surface. That was almost 4 years ago. The paint scrubs up well. It has a couple small dots of stain behind the stove and otherwise still looks good. A 50-year run, twice even stainless steel's 25-year run, just means time for a change? |
I really wanted back painted glass but never could pull it off! |
Great, our kitchen is not even done and it is out of style-- stainless appliances and tile back splash. Thank goodness I am only doing what I want and not what fashion dictates. It helps, though, that we do not plan to move or sell anytime in the next several decades! |
If by "we" you're including me, then no. I think tile is lovely, but I am interested in large format ceramic tile like the Claymonde ceramic sheets at Fireclay tile that measure 5 3/4" or 11 11/16" x 35 1/4" and these large format totally customizable glass tiles (I call them tile, you can think of them as sheets...whatever) from Dreamwalls. In case you're interested, I recommended these to TNGardener19 a few weeks ago. I don't know if she has any more info for you on the cost or the company. It's definitely a sleek, contemporary look, and as grlwprls mentioned, very easy to clean because there's no grout. That having been said, which do you think will show grease splatters more - a solid large format glass tile, or subway, or mosaic format glass tiles? It will be easier to clean, but you'll be cleaning it daily. Be sure to also invest in Johnson&Johnson stock (they make Windex). |

MeMcG, oh, no....I am so not questioning if kitchens with tile are "in" or not. I'm just wondering if it is becoming "acceptable" to the mainstream to not have tile, or anything on the kitchen walls, except behind the stove. EAM, funny about the J&J comment...sort of do have stock, but only in a human way ;) rosie--I'm thinking if I paint it a color, I can change it! dedtired, yes I understand that they usually take their kitchens. The ones I was looking at didn't exactly look like they were going anywhere. I wish I could get some of the photos electronically to share. grlwprls, that is one of the looks, just the glass behind the stove. Angie, I can always count on you for some great pics. I know tile has been around forever. (When I was in Ephesus looking at the Cliff Houses that they are working on, the entire wall of the kitchen area was done in a mosaic tile, probably made of marble based on the marble roads and sidewalks). I guess I meant when did it become "expected" to do tile all over the kitchen, and not just behind the range? Pal, I think the editors are still loving the white cabinets in the kitchen, but it's the backsplash where they want to see more color used. ....from what I'm told. Well, I'm back to waiting for my samples of tiles to arrive in the mail.... |

bee..exactly. I wanted something that was scrubbable and changeable and also simple and clean lined. I love my painted walls and have never regretted them. I used BM Matte and it is very easy to clean and looks exactly like it did over 6 yrs ago when it was first painted. It gets hard use behind this cooktop and deep fat fryer. I hope others will opt out of the tile/glass and go for the paint only look. c |
Europeans have always embraced clean modern design much more than Americans. Americans are now more familiar with modern design and the trend is toward modern for many. However, still the majority of American, modern is not something that they love. I see traditional look of tile enduring in America because Americans in general like ornamentation and decoration. |

>I'm just wondering if it is becoming "acceptable" to the mainstream to not have tile, or anything on the kitchen walls, except behind the stove. I think that in the mainstream, as opposed to the TKO, it's always been acceptable and even normal. The world at large never got the memo that the 4" backsplash was infra dig and goes on very happily using it. |
- Posted by writersblock (My Page) on Wed, Sep 12, 12 at 13:59
I meant to add that in my area, even plain ol' tumbled travertine over the whole backsplash area is still regarded as a very luxe upgrade item for any house not in the million dollar plus bracket. |

GW kitchen forum operates within a relatively narrow paradigm within the big picture. The House Beautiful Kitchen of the Year by Mick DeGuilio is a white kitchen with tiled backsplash (and a blue sink)--so I don't thing these elements are on their way out, just because people are interested in Seeing something different. A kitchen isn't an odd heel on a shoe or a faddish accessory that is completely ephemeral. A shift in what we see now means that in about ten years, fifteen year old kitchens will start to look a bit old, in general. Or at least that's what the timeline should be. I would hope that the lifecycle is 20 years or so, at least. |

Pipeline Productions, organizers of the Wakarusa and Harvest music festivals, are set to debut a three-day country music festival this year called "Thunder on the Mountain."
Like Wakarusa and Harvest, Thunder on the Mountain will include four stages on Mulberry Mountain near Ozark, Arkansas.
The inaugural festival is scheduled for June 6-8, just one week after the 2013 installment of Wakarusa.
Artist lineups won't be announced until December, but Pipeline spokeswoman Emily Ginsberg said Thunder on the Mountain promises to be "the Midwest's premiere country festival in 2013 and all years to come."
For what it's worth, we're hearing that Thunder on the Mountain hopes to be a Midwest version of major country music festivals like Stagecoach and WE Fest which usually feature artists like Toby Keith, Lady Antebellum, Little Big Town and Steve Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers.
Again, we don't have any information on the inaugural lineup, but don't be surprised to see some major names on the list.

I have heard that brugs start blooming once the y in the branches has formed, and was also told that cuttings should be taken from above the y also. Can anyone enlighten me on this?
Dorothy |
Follow-Up Postings:
Great question Dorothy, as a newbie I too am curious about this, can't wait for the experts to answer!! Ellen |
This is my take on this, although some may disagree. A seedling generally takes at least a year to produce a bloom, at or above the "Y". Cuttings taken from above this juncture should flower when the resulting plant has attained proper size and strength. Any cuttings taken from this or resulting plants in the future should be considered above the "Y", even though there is not a "Y" on that plant. Jack |
- Posted by karyn1 MD 7 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Wed, Jun 9, 10 at 6:06
I have the same results with seed grown plants. It's at least a full year before I get blooms. Usually in the second season but I do know some folks that get blooms the first year from seed, Brenda, for one. I often get blooms earlier on cuttings that have been taken from above a Y as opposed to cuttings taken from branches that have yet to bloom but that's not always the case. I've had some cuttings bloom very early on while the plant is still quite small. The blooms end up being longer then the plant is tall. |
- Posted by fool4flowers Copperas Cove, Tx 8 (email@example.com) on Wed, Jun 9, 10 at 23:30
Cutting can be taken from any part of the plant that is firm enough to root. Small thing green ones are the hardest. They tend to wither but it can be done in the right conditions. I have found the above the Y ones to bloom faster in the beginning but I think on the very small plants that do that the buds were already forming when the cutting was taken. I have had some get 8 feet tall before they Y and others do it when they are small. I guess its genetics for some of them. |

I cannot stand how our laundry room is so cluttered. It is very long and narrow. It is essentially 73 x 147 inches. The far wall with the window is obviously an exterior wall.
The kids and my husband keep their coats there. We have shoes that we need to keep in there as well as the kids reference books, school supplies and some craft items and obviously laundry stuff. and view from other direction We would like to make one of those walls with hooks, bench and baskets but not sure if we have enough room for everyone to get their own cubby. We also need someplace to hang clothes that we don't put in the dryer. DH wants to stack the W/D. Also, the room is 10 feet tall and not sure what to do about that but seems like wasted storage space for things that you don't need often like snow gear, summer gear. I would appreciate any thoughts or suggestions. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Acknowledging that moving the plumbing and electrics to the other side of the room will be a pain and not cheap, have you considered flipping the layout so your washer, dryer and sink (I'd get one with storage underneath) are on the opposite wall, then having tall shelves/cubbies down the other side in graduating depths, from shallow near the door to the kitchen (?) to nearly as deep as the space to the window where the window is. That way it won't look like a long narrow hallway down the middle of the room but everything can be contained (make the deepest cupboard part with hanging rods and keep the coats there). |
I had actually considered moving the w/d to under the window and lining both sides with cabinets. The sink would have to stay on the side too. How wide would I need to leave for a walkway? |
- Posted by kellycrash (My Page) on Wed, Feb 8, 12 at 20:15
I think your laundry room is fine the way it is. You just don't need to store every coat and pair of shoes you have in there. I got one of those 24 pocket hanging shoe storage things for the back of my laundry room door. Right now hats, gloves and scarfs are stored there. One coat per person. One pair of shoes per person. I just have a big basket I toss our shoes in. Is there any room in your garage for shoes or coats? I would try to put in a few more cabinets to organize some of the stuff perhaps. Your laundry room is wider than mine. I think you just need some organization not a redesign. |
I agree that I could use organization!!! I bought a over door hangy thing but DH didn't want it because it damaged the door frame. We've had baskets for shoes but they always seem to break. One last question is the flooring in this room. Would it look silly to be different than the kitchen? It is a separate room with a door and step down. What I am concerned about is too many flooring types in my house. The foyer is cherry hardwood, LR and DR same carpet, FR brown hardwood and the builder's linoleum in kitchen and laundry room. We are not ready to touch the kitchen floor yet. The washing machine has been leaking water so we might have to replace that floor. |
Your drawing makes it look like the window extends over the dryer but in your photo, it looks like your dryer ends before the window. If that's the case and if you'd consider it, your laundry room would benefit from stacking front load machines. What I envision is stacked W/D at the window wall, cabinets above for more storage. 24" sink cab next to W/D, 24" drawer cab next to that. Cabs above sink and drawers. Towards the door, add a 36" wide, 18" deep functional mud room storage type of cabinet, like this: You should be able to stand on the bench and reach items stored in the cabinets above the bench, even with 9' ceilings. This, along with the stacked W/D, cabs above it and cabs above new sink cab uses the vertical space that is underused at present. Your floor space is overused. ;-) On the opposite wall, install a long row of hooks for coats, backpacks, etc. Between this, the cubbies behind the bench and the drawers, there should be enough storage space within reach of little ones. |
Is there any way that this could just be a laundry room, and not a catch-all for so many other things? I totally agree with the need for a place above the dryer (or elsewhere) to hang clothes you don't put in the dryer. When my DH installed one for me a few years ago, my life immediately got much easier. If you must have other things in there, I like the idea of just ONE coat per person, others hopefully stored in closet(s), a good organizer for shoes, etc. We have an over-the-door organizer with the 'cubbyholes' which has not damaged the door. We bought it either at Target or Walmart. Seems to me the clear stackable drawers for craft items or school supplies (can't remember exactly what you said is in them) may not be a problem if the other things didn't take up so much space. I have a friend who is much more organized than anyone I know, and she always emphasizes going UP when there's limited space otherwise. HTH |
I see what looks like a heating vent under the window. I think that would be problematic if you moved the W/D in front of it. |
So the window is 30' from the wall which would mean that I could stack if the W/D back was on the wall with the window. Not sure how much plumbing that would require. We are a family of 4 with kids ages 8 and 9. I certainly could go up as the room is 10 feet tall which might be good storage for seasonal items like snow pants and boots or swimming stuff. What I need to store in the laundry room is: 1 or 2 (heavy/light) coats per person depending on season In and on the bookcase right now is school/craft supplies: I think a cubby/shelf system would work great. lisa_a - loved the picture and I would love to do this but am concerned how to do it with the narrow room. I keep drawing pictures using kitchen cabinets but maybe a DIY cubby system would work better. |
I'm thinking of using Ikea's Expedit now. I think it will work great for the backpacks, computer bags and shoes. |
That's why I only suggested it as 18" deep. I think the one in the pic looks like it's 24" deep but given how close to the doors I was suggesting for its placement, I think you'd need to go shallower or it would become a log jam area and I get the impression you're trying to correct the one you've got. ;-) Anyhoo, you should have a 43" aisle, allowing 12" for coats and hooks on one wall and 18" mudroom bench cab on the other. Just watch the aisle width close to the doors so you don't end up too tight there. Another alternative is to go with a 24" deep mudroom cab (37" aisle) and step it down to 18" as you get near the doorways. You could stack your washer and dryer on the window wall, facing the length of the room with the sink next to it under the window with cabs above W/D and window. You could run a clothes rod above the sink (this is the location I've seen suggested for hanging drip dry garments). That does put it in front of the window but that might be okay since it's temporary. If you go with a cabinet and sink instead of the stand alone wash tub, you can run ducting under the cabinet and install a vent in the toe kick of the sink cab (this is what we have in our laundry room). I think you'd want to leave at least 3' in front of the W/D so that you have room to load/unload without running into something. Then hooks on the garage wall and 18" deep mudroom cabs on the opposite wall. I have a narrow-ish, overworked laundry room/mudroom, too, so I empathize with your situation. Good luck! |
Thanks lisa_a. That is a lot of good info. |
You're welcome! |

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Daisy Doodle!
Facts about Daisy Doodle
- Breed: Great Dane
- Color: Merle
- Age: Adult
- Size: X-Large 101 lbs (46 kg) or more
- Sex: Female
Daisy Doodle's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, purebred, and up to date with shots.
Daisy is a lovely 3 1/2 yr young merle, fun loving girl who needs a forever family.
She was adopted from a local shelter as a pup and put outside the rest of her life. Daisy was raised with little dogs so she is fond of small critters. She is very girlie and her personality fills the room!!! Did we mention she is also an accomplished couch potato and loves having a doggie door??? This lovely does need some work with her leash manners but is very doable!
If you would like to help with Daisy's care while she is in rescue, please go our homepage: www.azdanerescue.petfinder.com and click on Donate!!! Thank you for caring.
To meet this very cute girl, plz call or email to set up an appointment with her foster family. A home check and meet & greet with all family members is required. There is an adoption contract and an adoption fee of $400.00. 623 869-0409 Msg line
Other Pets at Great Dane Rescue of AZ Alliance
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Daisy Doodle, a Phoenix Great Dane dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Great Dane for sale in Phoenix, or seeking a Great Dane dog from a breeder in Phoenix.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Phoenix already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Phoenix breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Great Dane breeders who help with Great Dane rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Phoenix paves the way for another one to be saved.

The underlying goal of my research is to define relationships between dietary factors and cancer by using epidemiology methods in combination with tools from chemistry and genetics, such as dietary biomarkers and genetic polymorphisms that relate to the detoxification and activation of dietary compounds. My projects address research hypotheses that are informed by experimental evidence, and therefore produce results with the greatest potential for elucidating underlying diet-cancer mechanisms and impacting public health. Past projects include evaluating heterocyclic amine exposure from cooked meat and risk of colon cancer, and genetic susceptibility to these dietary compounds. My current projects include evaluating various diet and cancer hypotheses, specific to colorectal, breast and prostate cancer risk in a large prospective cohort of Singapore Chinese.Selected Publications

2005 Nissan Altima 2.5 S
ProsVery nice curves and extremely comfortable on long drives. ConsAcceleration.
Great Car For The Everyday Life. — I should have gone for the 3.5 with a bigger engine although the 4cyl is AMAZING ON GAS! The price tag of $16,000 when I bought it was very reasonable as well. Loads of trunk and storage space too and I would recommend this to everyone...as long as you aren't looking to race anytime soon. Primary Use: Commuting to work

ProsWhat can I say other than that Nissan always builds good passenger vehicles. ConsWould have loved the factory navi unit in this but I can always add a portable one to it.
Awesome Sedan. — Great sedan. Nice leather seats, wood inlays, all the usual creature comforts, and great performance and handling. Is there any more I can say. Probably. But the best way of describing this car is that its a great everyday commuter. Primary Use: Commuting to work |

ProsFast, Powerful and corners like a cat with long claws. Consfuel econ.
Love It!! — When I found this car on the dealer lot back in 2005 I couldn't afford it but wanted it as bad as a Snoop needs a Dogg. A very hard car to find used. I've now had mine for more than two years and love it to pieces. Huge interior for a vehicle of this class, (remember Nissan's "4 door sports car?), and has better interior/exterior finish than any other 3rd generation Altima. I autocrossed it last year. Took third place in GS class it's that good of a road car. Ask for it to blow past the car holding you up on a backroad two-lane and it's done. Better be prepared for torque-steer though. 260+ horsepower through the front wheels can be a handful with the amount of twisting force grabbing for pavement. The brakes are so-so and could be better but most drivers would not use as much stopping force as an autocrosser would. The steering is spot on too. So fast that you have to 'pre-think' your sneezes. All in all, the 3rd generation SE-R is a blast to drive. A true driver's car. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |
2005 Nissan Altima 2.5 SL
ProsThe interior and comfortability inside - it is very roomy! ConsSometimes sensors go out, but it is standard in Nissans!
Altima — I like how roomy and comfortable it is!!! I LOVE the leather seating in it and the heated seats are the best in the winter!!!! The maintenance is also very reasonable! I love the bose audio and the multi-disc changer!!! Primary Use: Commuting to work |
2005 Nissan Altima 2.5 S
ProsHandles well, very little maintenence, comfortable ConsLimited power, a lot of similar cars on the road
Great Basic Car — This Altima is fun to drive and easy to care for. It is very reliable and has good room and comfort particularly in the front seat. We use the car regularly around town and also on long trips. It has adequate power, but we are not high speed drivers. Accelleration is fine for driving in town and on the highway, it handles and brakes well. The ride is smoth and comfortable. Primary Use: Family transportation |
2005 Nissan Altima 2.5 S
ProsLot's of room and power, yet good on gas Consnot an SUV
Great Car For Family And Fun! — Great acceleration, braking and handling, drives like a small car with big car power, exterior is very stylish and interior comfortably fits 5 people, great sound system and convenient functionality, very low maintenance and great gas milage, fun car to drive Primary Use: Commuting to work |
2005 Nissan Altima SE-R
Prosfun Consnot an suv
Like It But Will Get An Suv Next — Fast, fun to drive, decent on gas. A little too low for me. I like an SUV better, feels safer. It is a fairly cheap car to operate and own. Very reliable and doesn't burn much gas when you don't stand on it too much! Primary Use: Commuting to work |
2005 Nissan Altima 2.5 SL
ProsEverything ConsWhat negatives?
My '05 Altima — Love this car, !st actually nice car I've had. It gets up pretty good, needs a lil engine work, but it's good. Too bad the governor maxes out at 110MPH. Other than that takes corners damn good no matter how fast I'm going. Haven't needed to fix anything yet, I think I might need breaks soon. Even though the things stops on a dime. I like this design a clean cut car, had tints installed I need some 18's (at least) a dual exhaust and a Grille to clean up the front end. Also they should of done the tail lights black like the SE-R model, woulda looked much better. I get anywhere between 400 to 460 MPG on a full tank, and I run 93 in it. I love this car, it rides smooth doesn't have any rattles, and it's comfortable for me and all of my passengers. I'd tell all my friends to get one of these, it's a great car. |
2005 Nissan Altima 2.5 S
ProsExcelent acceleration, great handling, above average factory sound system ConsEngine noise at high speeds, torque steer.
A Fun Car To Drive!! — Probably the most spacious car in its class. Looks good although you see it everywhere now, fun to drive, great acceleration, handling and braking. Good on gas mileage, seems to be better with premium gas. I recommend this car or Nissans in general to everyone. If you want a car thats fun to drive, go get any car made by Nissan or Infiniti (they are the same company). Oh yeah, if you can pick up the manual transmission version!! |
2005 Nissan Altima 2.5 SL
Proslot of spaces, beautiful interior, attractive outside, powerful 2.5 engine Conscost more gas than the civc

Is it difficult to load your dishwahser while you are at the sink? Do you wish there was space between? Curious because we are designing our kichen with a corner sink too.

Posted by naomi1965 on 2008-02-18, 14:08:49 .
I cannot begin to tell you how wonderful I felt seeing our kitchen on this page. How very exciting and wonderful~! Thank you all so much for your nice comments and compliments. I sincerely apologize as I had no idea that Garden Web had such a Gallery. We are very pleased and honored to have our kitchen shown here.
Responding to the corner kitchen sink and dishwasher, I have to say it's the perfect set-up. The cabinet above holds dishware and to the right, glassware. It makes our clean-up so easy! Rinse, garbage disposal on the left, and load dishwasher. Unloading is a breeze as the only time you really have to step away is for the flatware. It's drawer is on the left of the refrigerator but that corner houses our coffee pot as well as easy access to the stove. The island drawer just in front of the stove is for knives and the drawer next to the stove holds utensils.
Thank you all again for appreciating my work and sharing the joy it brought me and my family. To this day, everyone that sees the backsplash for the first time needs a "tour" of what is buried there. So many good memories! It's the one thing in our home that would be the hardest to leave should we sell when our boys are on their own way.
With heartfelt thanks,

Sorry for posting twice. Guess I was too surprised. Color me goofy...
justadncr& klaa2, I'd love to show you closer shots but don't know how to insert the pictures here. I do know that some of them are on the Kitchen Blogs under Soov. I hope that helps.
jiju, the island was built when we built our house in 2000. I stained the bottom and did a mosaic on the top of marble. The kitchen counters are tiled with 13" floor tile, making the cuts easy. I'm sorry I wasn't aware of this page or I would have responded to you earlier.
Thank you to each and everyone of you....

About 100 Women
Fascination with reading and hearing about the lives of others is at the heart of the human desire to know ourselves. We want to read about lives and experiences that are akin to our own, and also about those that allow us to imagine something different. Sometimes that difference is small: another city, another job, a path not taken. Sometimes the difference is so vast that we can only grasp the edges of someone else's experience. And sometimes reading about the experiences of others raises questions or comparisons with our own lives that lead us to confront preconceptions or initiate change.
100 Women grew from a desire to celebrate the differences and similarities of our lives. It started with a discussion about how we could showcase a range of experiences across ages, backgrounds and opportunities. We chose to tell the stories of 100 women, all connected to Newcastle in some way. Their tales are alike in some ways and starkly different in others. This collection shows women at every stage of life, from teenagers to octogenarians. Their backgrounds and circumstances may be different, but commonalities emerge. There are familiar themes, such as overcoming social constraints and the challenge of combining career with family. Other themes reflect universal challenges, such as poverty and lack of choice. But the stories also tell us about the importance of people and place, of connection, of understanding where you fit in the world and what you can offer. Many women struggle with what Reverend Maz Smith describes in her story as "the expectation that women will be beautiful, bright and fast - that women will be everything".
Every reader will have a different experience of this collection. Like Kathy Butler, discovering an intimately known name between the pages of a dusty book, the feeling may be one of recognition. Or, as with Diana Rah's story of her flight from a war zone, it may be an altered perspective, allowing readers to see something familiar in a way that is transformed by the experience of others. Whether drawing inspiration and encouragement from individual stories, or from the patterns of strength and resilience that emerge from the collection, we hope that readers will take a moment to imagine what it might mean to live differently. And also take a moment to celebrate their own lives.
This collection captures one of the truisms of the human experience - that each of us is like everyone else, like some other people, and like no-one else at all. Each story in this collection is a glimpse through a window, a portion of the meaning. In the snapshots of the lives in this collection, we believe that readers will recognise there is something bigger - something more to admire - in every story.
Gillean Shaw, Keryn Stewart and Kevin McConkey, editors of 100 Women

VLC for Mac death is "greatly exaggerated" / What is Lunettes?
VLC for Mac is being maintained. However the old Cocoa graphical interface of VLC, is not being maintained at this time.
The reason is that we are in the process of rewriting a new interface for VLC. Its codename is Lunettes.
Why a rewrite? This is something really easy to see. VLC for Mac is just not "Mac" enough.

Don't worry, the game itself and the trailer we posted is genuine. However, a Project Needlemouse site featuring Green Hill-esque artwork has been confirmed as false.

I was like "no way" at first when I first like watched it but now I'm kinda used to the idea or something. My only hope is that this like version of Linux or something is as existential as the Hannah Montana show. I wonder if there are two sides to this linux, like OH MY GOD it wears a wig at night so your using Hannah Montana linux and by day your using Miley Stewart Linux. That would be like sooooooooooooo cool!!!!!!!

Where can I buy this Jobs flavoured kool-aid? I'm so glad all these big tech companies are investing in the flavoured beverage market.

They really should make an MS-branded kool-aid beverage though, as long as its not Ballmer flavoured which would probably taste like armpit sweat.

I like vista (374 comments)
There, I said it. And I'm probably going to lose karma for this post as everyone seems to hate vista here but oh well.
I know there are going to be dozens (if not hundreds) of vista jokes about this article but I still don't know why everyone hates vista so much.
This is going to sound really weird, and I am not making this up. I'm a Linux user (kubuntu at the moment, used to use slackware and I'm thinking of installing fedora) and I have an old mac that I use regularly too. I wasn't too fond of XP, and I'm not a huge fan of microsoft either because of their dirty business tactics. I got Vista (with sp1) cheap because I'm a uni student. The first thing I did before buying Vista was to make sure that all the parts I had were compatible, and luckily they were as I only just built the computer. Anyway, so I installed vista expecting there to be a million problems, I had a preconceived negative opinion of vista and I was actually quite surprised. Its stable, fast (on my computer, at least) and I'm quite enjoying using it.
However, I never used Vista before SP1 and I didn't have the driver problems. And I guess because I don't use XP that I wasn't missing any of XP's features.
Anyway, I guess my experience isn't the usual experience. Sure, I'm not going to make Vista my main machine (I love kubuntu and os x too much to do that

Can't these problems be easily solved? (178 comments)
Obviously mobile phones are becoming more advanced and have more features these days and we want to be able to use them with the same kind of freedom we get with a desktop. Wouldn't the solution be to have an appstore with all the censorship crap and "protection" and also allow users to install whatever the hell they want on their phone via their own means? Wouldn't that appease pretty much everyone? Oh wait, this is about control over what one can do with their own phone that they purchased, such as limiting tethering and VoIP and anything that the phone companies do not want, I totally forgot.
And no, I don't hate apple (typing this on my mac) and I'm thinking of getting an iphone but this crap is really starting to piss me off. I don't want to buy a phone thats locked down so badly that I can't do what I want with it without jailbreaking it. Its ridiculous.

As per an NHL Network press release courtesy of the timely Puck The Media:
OTTAWA, ONTARIO–(Marketwire – Sept. 13, 2010) – The Ottawa Senators will hold a news conference on Wednesday, Sept. 15, at 11 a.m. at the Fairmont Chateau Laurier Hotel. Senators owner Eugene Melnyk and president Cyril Leeder will be joined by National Hockey League commissioner Gary Bettman to make a major announcement.
Rumblings of what this oh-so special announcement could be were put to rest early Monday afternoon when The Globe and Mail's James Mirtle tweeted the following:
The big news? Bank on it being Ottawa landing the 2012 all-star game.
If that's the case, this bodes as wonderful news for the subdivisions and endless farm country that surround Kanata's concrete edifice known as Scotiabank Place. Located at the far-west end of Ottawa, Scotiabank Place has been criticized by hockey fans in and outside of Ottawa for its location in relation to the city centre. The tyranny of distance has proven to be too much for those looking to celebrate a big victory at a nearby bar or rally to save a franchise player like Jason Spezza.
The NHL All-Star Game will do little to close the distance between Scotiabank Place and Ottawa's downtown, but it should be a nice shot in the arm for the city's otherwise frozen January tourism industry. The Senators are currently the only Canadian NHL team that has never hosted an all-star game. Given NHL commissioner Gary Bettman's rocky relationship with Canadian hockey fans, it's fair to look at the move with judging eyes as a political play while the league and players' union head into labour uncertainty in 2012.
In the meantime, Ottawa hockey fans should hold their collective breath that Kanata doesn't get robbed of its impending glory.

Theophilus London. Basel Castle at the Overthrow Castle, 41 NW 20th St., Miami. The party begins at 5 p.m., and admission is free; theoverthrow.com. Dude's got the name of a Biblically inclined, 19th-century British inventor. But he's actually Brooklyn's raddest hipster-hopper. With an affinity for the Casio SK-10 sampler, Kraftwerk, and Purple Rain, 22-year-old Theophilus London has built his rep on the back of two heavily buzzed Internet albums — debut Jam! and 2009's follow-up, This Charming Mixtape — not to mention a recent sun-soaked summer collabo, "Flying Overseas," with Beyoncé's sister, Solange Knowles. Plus mofo knows how to dress. Also on the bill: Amanda Blank and Sweatheart, ex-Miami electropopper Jesp (AKA Joseph Espinoza), as well as DJs Heroes + Villains, Tamara Sky, Damaged Goods, Troy Kurtz, and Pirate Stereo. S. Pajot
Aska. Bar, 28 NE 14th St., Miami. The show begins at 10 p.m.; 28ne14st.com. The indie music scene is one big mess of subgenres. Artists draw inspiration from multiple sources — other musicians, literary works, and everything else around them — to create aural worlds of their own. And that's exactly the case with L.A.-based avant-pop act Aska. The classically trained pianist is a lover of all things conceptual. She toured the States and Europe with the Sads, and along with Becky Star of the Decemberists, she composes, arranges, and performs with the all-female, 30-member LA Ladies Choir. In September, she released her first EP, featuring Yeah Yeah Yeahs guitarist Nick Zinner, Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea, and Nick Dewitt of Pretty Girls Make Graves. Victor Gonzalez
Ninjasonik and Shepard Fairey. Fountain Art Fair, 2505 N. Miami Ave., Miami. Doors open at 7 p.m.; fountainexhibit.com. When New Times ran through the shortlist of potential partners for our Fountain Art Fair party, we stopped dead at the names Ninjasonik and Shepard Fairey. The former is an indie-rap trio that counts Reverend McFly, Telli Gramz, and DJ Roofeeo among its members. And believe it, people, these ninjas got serious skills. Meanwhile, the latter needs no introduction: He's graphic god and sometime DJ Shepard Freaking Fairey. And as a totally unnecessary bonus, there will be booze, namely the Rums of Puerto Rico, Famosa Beer, and Blu Energy Drink. S. Pajot
Damian Lazarus. Electric Pickle, 41 NW 20th St., Miami. Doors open at 9 p.m. 305-456-5613; electricpicklemiami.com. Clubland can be a wasteland. But former Dazed & Confused music editor, current Crosstown Rebels label exec, and minimal DJ-producer Damian Lazarus is a natural-born opponent of mediocrity, unearned hype, and cash-bloated trash. For the past ten years, he has worked endlessly to improve the state of electronic music, helping to break blog house stars such as Tiga and underground heads such as Seth Troxler. Be there when Lazarus protests excess at the Electric Pickle. No better time than Basel week, right? S. Pajot

The Do-Over. Bar, 28 NE 14th St., Miami. The show begins at 10 p.m.; 28ne14st.com. Los Angeles's Do-Over has been that city's prime summertime barbecue and dance party for six years. The brainchild of Jamie Strong, Chris Haycock, and Aloe Blacc (of "I Need a Dollar" fame), it has consistently brought out big names such as Dâm-Funk and the late DJ AM. Now this West Coast throwdown is heading east, just in time to cure your Art Basel hangover. In true Do-Over fashion, the DJ lineup is being kept secret, though whispers suggest a pretty major invasion. Liana Lozada

Why should I consider going on exchange? There are lots of reasons-- academic, professional and personal. Our partners are among the top business schools in the world; taking classes at these institutions will give you a different perspective on business issues. Studying abroad allows you to polish your language skills, to delve into a new culture and to make friends. Many Haas students use their exchange semester to contact local firms with the goal of securing employment outside the Bay Area and outside the United States. Who is eligible for exchange programs? You must be in good academic standing (with a GPA of at least 3.0) and have completed the core courses. You also must be a solid citizen at Haas. Exchange students are Haas ambassadors, our exchange relationships depend in part on your good citizenship while on exchange. We reserve the right to deny applicants whose behavior while at Haas indicates they might endanger those relationships and prevent future Haas students from going on exchange to a particular school. You would need to work closely with your employer and with the EW Program office to make sure progress toward your academic and professional goals is not impeded. Because our exchange program is with full-time MBA programs, it is not feasible for you to study part-time while working at your firm's local subsidiary. Therefore, you may have to arrange a leave of absence with your employer. Timing is another issue. Haas students, whether full-time or EW, are eligible to go on exchange only after they have completed the entire MBA core. When can I go on exchange? You can go on exchange, usually in the fall semester, of your second or third year. How many students can go on exchange each year? Typically, we send between one and three students each year to each school. The number is a function of the size of the partner school's exchange program and the "balance of trade" between Haas and the partner school over time. Check with the exchange program coordinator for current information on the schools you are considering. How and when do I apply? What are the selection criteria? The application period is in April. All students are notified by email about the dates for information sessions, the number of placements available at each school and the application deadline. You must complete an application stating which school you want to attend, why going on exchange is relevant to your personal and professional goals, and how you would be a good Haas ambassador while abroad. If there is space available at the school you have selected, you are in good academic standing and we have no concerns about your ability to represent Haas, you will be offered a space at your chosen school. If demand for the school you selected exceeds supply, exchange students will be selected by lottery. Those who don't win the lottery are welcome to go to any other school where space is still available. All offers for the exchange program are conditional on your maintaining a 3.0 GPA for all course work and successfully completing the MBA core before the exchange semester. How much will it cost? You will pay your usual tuition and fees to the University of California, as if you were spending the semester at Haas. No additional tuition or fees are paid to the exchange school, except perhaps secondary fees to use the computer center or other services, similar to the secondary fees you pay at Haas. Will going on exchange affect my financial aid? You should check with the Haas Financial Aid Office if you will need financial aid while on exchange. All paperwork should be completed and in order before your departure. Also, you must sign up for Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) so your financial aid proceeds can be deposited directly into a designated bank account. Budget appeals can be considered to augment the standard financial aid budget for the some of the increased costs of studying on exchange. How fluent do I need to be in Spanish/French/etc? The degree of fluency in the local language required at each school varies. All partner schools teach many electives in English. You should investigate the policy at the particular school you are interested in by visiting the school's Website. English is widely spoken in some countries, less so in others. In all cases, familiarity with the local language will be important to getting the most out of your exchange experience. What classes may I take? You will take only elective courses at the exchange school. How will classes be credited toward my degree? You must complete at least 10 and a maximum of 12 units of coursework while on exchange. Before you depart, you will register for an assigned EWMBA Exchange Program class at Haas. Your exchange units will transfer back to your UC Berkeley transcript as a block of 10 - 12 units on pass/no pass basis. You will receive an official transcript from your exchange institution that will show the specific courses completed and grades earned. How do I get to the school I selected? You must make, and pay for, your own travel arrangements. How do I find a place to live? Some schools have student housing that they make available to exchange students, at varying costs. Other programs require you to find local housing on your own. Trading housing with visiting exchange students coming to Haas is often an option. Will my student medical insurance be valid? Berkeley's Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP) will be valid while you are abroad, provided you are properly registered and pay all your current Berkeley fees before you leave. SHIP will cover 100% of emergency department care, 90% of hospitalization, and 80% of professional fees--such as physicians' fees, lab tests or x-rays--while out of the country. Care must be medically necessary, as determined by Blue Cross, to be covered by SHIP. You must pay out of pocket for any health expenses incurred while on your semester abroad, and seek reimbursement when you return by bringing your bills to the Student Health Insurance Office. The plan does not cover medical evacuation from a foreign country or repatriation of remains. If you have private coverage and waived enrollment in SHIP, be sure to check with your private insurance carrier on the extent of coverage while abroad. How will an exchange affect my job search? You may register for on-campus recruiting at Haas, receive all of the emails from the recruiting coordinator, and submit résumés and cover letters for interviews via fax or email attachments while on exchange. However, this is impractical unless you plan to fly back for each interview. Thus, if you are considering going on exchange, you also may have to plan a proactive job search, depending on your career goals and situation. If you are interested in industries that recruit primarily in the fall (e.g., consulting and investment banking) you should network and develop contacts in these industries before leaving Berkeley. You should stay in touch with these contacts and visit their European, Latin American, Asian or New York offices while you are on exchange. You also should do everything possible to fly back to campus for a week of interviews with firms in November, either on campus or elsewhere. In other fields, excellent career opportunities often become available during the Spring semester when you will be back at Haas. Students who are on exchange often put their résumés into the second-year résumé book, indicating in the education section of the résumé that they will be away for the Fall semester. If you do this, be sure to include the phone number and address number where you can be reached while away. When will classes start? Your classes will start at the normal date for the school you selected. Some are on the quarter system, so your summer break will be longer than usual. However, some schools offer a period of intensive language training for exchange students before regular classes start. Sometimes final exams are in January; as an accommodation to exchange students, you will be allowed to take them in December. Will I like it? Studying abroad can be a wonderful chance to experience another culture and meet students from another part of the world. It also can be very challenging to find housing and negotiate a foreign city while keeping up with the academic demands of another top MBA program. We have a file of feedback from Haas students and alumni who participated in exchanges. You can ask them for their impressions and tips. During your first year, there are likely to be some second-year students on exchange from the schools you are considering. They are a wonderful source of advice. |

« May 2007 Table of Contents
Cameron Mitchell's success in the restaurant industry has exceeded even his own expectations. As a teenager, the Columbus, Ohio, native mapped out his future late one night after a shift washing dishes at a local steak house. His goals were lofty: Graduate from the Culinary Institute of America - which he did in 1986 - and, by the age of 35, become president of a restaurant company.
It seems he was a little ahead of schedule. Mitchell, president and founder of the privately held Cameron Mitchell Restaurants in Columbus, climbed the corporate ladder at The 55 Restaurant Group, also in Columbus, until he "ran out of rungs." Mitchell ventured out on his own in 1993 with Cameron's, a contemporary American bistro.
Today, Mitchell, 43, oversees 28 restaurants in eight states and has more on the way. While there are nine different concepts that operate under the company umbrella, Mitchell's Fish Market is the chief expansion vehicle.
CMR operates 15 upscale Mitchell's Fish Markets with three more openings slated later this year. The menu is updated twice a day and is dotted with the specific harvest ports of the day's fresh-fish selections. There are even compass points etched on the walls for the seafaring guests.
The company is enjoying success with its mainly Midwest customer base. After generating $106 million in sales in 2006, Mitchell says 2007 could eclipse $125 million. I caught up with Mitchell in March to talk about seafood and its important role at his restaurants.
WRIGHT: As a one-time dishwasher who became a company president, do you teach your employees that they can climb the company ladder?
MITCHELL: Absolutely, I wouldn't have it any other way. In fact, 85 percent of managerial associates started as hourly associates - cooks, line cooks, servers - and we're proud of that fact. The upward mobility of our team is phenomenal.
How much time do you spend in R&D kitchens?
Not much, but what I do is serve on a panel for new-items tasting. I'm just one person, and I care what 100 people think, not just one. When we do tastings, I'm just one opinion, like everyone else.
Why are you relying on seafood to drive the company's success?
Clearly our No. 1 concept is the Fish Market. We decided a long time ago that we were pretty good at it and I've been to seafood restaurants everywhere - Boston, San Diego, Miami. We're profitable at it, too; we have a good economic model. We love being a seafood restaurant. I've always had a passion for seafood.
Why do Fish Market menus list seafood origins?
Mostly it's for marketing purposes to add a bit of romance for the guests, to show that we're bringing [great seafood] to them. It furthers the concept and further enhances the guests' experience.
What is your philosophy on sourcing seafood?
We want to bring seafood from the coast quickly and easily to protect its integrity. We want Lexus-quality fish that's straight from the ocean to the menu. What differentiates us is we have a separate butcher and prep room for fish. It's a refrigerated kitchen set at 35 degrees. There's true market differential there. We may get the same fish as our competitors, but we know ours is not coming out of the prep room until it's ready to be served.
What percentage of your fish is fresh vs. frozen? Does it vary by season?
We shy away from frozen products with the preference for the freshest products for our guests. At least with finfish; we do buy frozen king crab. But when fresh Lake Erie walleye season is over, we're out.
Do you buy seafood with sustainability in mind?
Absolutely. Our thoughts are sustainability first. As the years go on, there are more options open to us. We serve Chilean sea bass harvested in South Georgia that is certified by the Marine Stewardship Council. Two years ago we switched from Atlantic cod to Pacific cod. The average guest may not see it, but many realize the reasons behind those changes.
What makes Mitchell's Fish Market successful in the Midwest?
A couple of things come to mind. The largest fashion retailer in the world is not based in New York, but Columbus, Ohio: Limited Brands. I keep that in mind with what we're doing. With shipping and technology, and the speed at which product is moved, there's little difference in the quality of the product that we get than what they get in Boston. From there, it's what we do with the product that sets us apart. None of our competitors do what we do with the dedicated fish kitchen. It's a 250-square- foot space.
When you add it all up, you're talking about hundreds of thousands of dollars of investments to ensure quality and freshness. Whether you're in Indianapolis or Seattle or Columbus, the process that we deliver is unparalleled.
You're tapping into new markets like New England and Florida, where seafood restaurants abound. Does your strategy differ for these regions?
Our No. 1 volume [restaurant] is in Detroit; No. 2 is in Tampa, Fla. We feel we've broken the ice in Florida. At many coastal areas, the restaurants are kitschy, mom-and-pop style.
That is what we're not. [Fried fish] is just one aspect of our menu, but we're broader and up to scale with our presentation. In Tampa, we use more Gulf Coast fish like pompano. In the Great Lakes, we'll do walleye pike. That's where the "regionality" comes into play, but it's a small part of the overall picture. There's a deviation of maybe 5 percent [from region to region].
What will Cameron Mitchell Restaurants look like in 10 years?
Growth is the exhaust of running a great company. We have no specific numeric goals. Our goal is to be an extraordinarily good restaurant company.

text: We've all read about how the U.S. is funding Colombians to grow other crops besides coca. It certainly sounds like a good idea until you look into it a bit, something U.S. journalists don't do very often. ReconsiDer board member Mary Barr just returned from a "fact-finding" trip to Colombia and sent me this article about how the U.S.'s crop substitution policy is working down there. We know that the coca dealers pick up the coca from the farmers but the farmers have to haul the "alternative " crops to market themselves. This, in a mountainous country with poor or non-existent roads. To make it more difficult, few of these poor farmers have vehicles in which to make the trip. If that doesn't sound like reason-enough for the crop substitution program to fail, click on the left to read Mary's article, Hearts of Colombia, in English, or Spanish. |
