@NeilStreeter: thank you for sharing this account, it's both appalling and amazing. I've passed it on to the relevant department at IWM for review, after which they may update our record about this photograph.NeilStreeter :
My Grandfather George C Streeter and his wife Agatha Ellen Streeter were the proprietors at the time and survived as they were blown into the basement but protected by the counter. The pub was packed to the rafters as a nearby pub had run out of drinks, Apart from cuts and glass shrapnel they were relatively unscathed but 68 people died, many children who were sat on the step outside the pub where the bomb hit.

Hello - I just joined this forum to ask opinions of those who know alot more than us on the subject of hearths. We have a 1929 house with a basement incinerator. We lined the chimney a year or so ago. It drafts very well so we are using a Harman insert. Because it's in the basement and because we have alot of other projects going on, we are going to leave the brick facing alone and just paint it and add a mantel for now. The problem is the hearth. We want to do a tiled granite or remnant granite slab but the insert, which weighs about 400 lbs, could scratch up the granite. How do you avoid this? Also, is granite able to handle the heat? Would slate be more durable than granite? |

Granite can handle heat as long as it is heated slow and more importantly, heated evenly, but I don't think you would be having enough heat to cause a problem, at least from the hearths that I am familiar with. |

Angry (big influence) black list review (glowing).
I like both. Don't like how my coda base is looking but I hear the blacklist and westmark are going to their extruded base next year, which seems to hold up better? |

15 dollars that is all the base costs to change , dont really see 15 making that much difference. I agree with BA having alot to do with me getting the board, and backcountry also being able to return it at anytime. They end up being my board test center as I cant make demo days and my hill only get limited numbers of companies.

Well, I'm taking the coda to Squaw and Alpine. I'm no crazy snowboarder, but I think I'll be hitting some shit there, so let's see how it holds up. I directed my buddy to get a Blacklist so we'll see how both do.
Another friend needed a suggestion, I pointed him towards a Riders Choice. But he's 200lbs, I wish he was lighter so I could hop on it 158 is just too much board for me. |

I'm not worried trust me. I don't even think about it until I get home and look at it. I just kept hearing about it, then when I came home and flipped my board, yup, there it was Other than that, I think the board is a blast. I really had a ton of fun on the board. The arbor system is pretty damn good, except I had to adjust on flatbasing a bit. |

I would love to try out the blacklist or the coda,
Seems people are saying the blacklist can do most of what the coda can. Would I be right in thinking the coda is a little stiffer and more all mountain oriented, while the blacklist has more of a park oriented all mountain feel? Any other differences? |
03-15-2012, 08:09 PM | #90 (permalink) |
Official SBF Blogger
coda is stiffer, directional-twin rather than true twin, and different tips (not sure what the difference here is but I think the BL/WM are more blunted shape, there may be other differences too though).

George Zimmerman's "Punk Patrol"
When George Zimmerman killed Trayvon Martin on Feb. 26, 2012:
That night, Zimmerman, who was on punk-patrol was determined that another punk would not escape.
George Zimmerman, 28, had already prejudged 17-year old Trayvon Martin by the time he saw him; a Black youth whom he was unfamiliar with.
This adult, Zimmerman believed Martin was one of those elusive "punks"; the type allegedly involved in past thefts in his neighborhood. And nobody likes a punk.
So on that night in Florida this was the mindset that controlled George Zimmerman's actions. And from this type of disposition, only trouble can come; nothing more. And trouble did come.
He was told by the Police Department not to follow Martin. But he did. That's what happens when a person is determined to confront a "punk."Trayvon Martin didn't know there was someone searching for a "punk."
Had it not been a "punk" named Trayvon on Feb. 26, so long as Zimmerman was determined to nail a "punk," it might have been someone else some other day.
And he, likely, would have been Black.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AX7tNBIyWJo

She was the definition of grace.  I'm not a celeb watcher- nor much TV, but  she was so easy to like- so real & intelligent.  Every news cast she did left us feeling as if we'd been sitting across from a coffee table from her  - lol! I guess we were.  I will miss her being part of my Seattle as she always has been.
Channel 4 news was always my favorite. They covered the story about Michael Leeland which was very personal for me so I was always loyal to Dan and Kathi. I was lucky enough to be home sick the day the wall fell... spent my day with Kathi!

In "Families," a Tapestry of Faith program
Reflection is one of the most important skills in life. Perhaps Socrates said it most poignantly when he said that an unexamined life is not worth living. This last session with the group offers a chance to look at all you have accomplished. It might be easy for some to find fault or look at the places where things did not work as you wished; to focus on how much more could have been accomplished; to want more time, more materials, more control, or more organization. It is true that reflection is about finding the places where you can do better, but it is also about deepening. When looking at the places where events went well, remember what you learned and acknowledge the connections that have grown over time. Reflection is a life skill that we can practice and, as with anything else we practice, become better at doing.
It might be helpful for you to spend time reflecting both alone and with your co-leader on the experience of working with youth on Families. How has this experience changed your feelings about the families in your congregation? Did your work give you opportunities to reflect upon your own family? Were there any revelations about working with youth that you particularly want to remember? Create a method by which to retain special memories from this project. You might save personal photographs or a journal. Consider sharing favorite memories with your co-leader or your congregation's religious educator.

Stunning stuff. I get compliments on my glow when I wear it. Because of the size of the bottle and the expiry (it's not packed with nasties so it expires quicker than other stuff), I feel justified to use it all the time. I'm half Indian half white so I go pretty sallow in the winter and I love using this to offset that.
I mix it with my Green People facecream and it goes on beautifully. You notice a slight (and gorgeous) smell but other than that, no difference to the feel of the cream.
I find it evens out the tone of the skin, so blemishes are less obvious and oddly the skin feels softer too (not sure how this can be true but it does feel like that!).
Very expensive to buy but totally worth it. I've stopped bothering with foundations etc. now, not that I was ever a big makeup user, and having a skin which changes colour radically with the sun isn't a good basis for having minimal amounts of makeup product on hand (and shades!).
it's fun to play with using more or less.
I read a lot of the reviews on here before I got it, and I was super impressed with the reviewer who said that their african-american boyfriend used it every day!
I'm in the UK and Dr Hauschka sent a sample of it for me to try out which was excellent (certainly wasn't going to pay that much to try something!) and it left me totally convinced.
The bottle is a bit annoying although I understand how they have to keep the rest uncontaminated but surely there must be a better dispenser out there? All the stuff I've had with these gold topped dispenser bottles have been leaky. The lock is pretty effective though.
Highly recommended!

A little goes a LONG WAY.
I use this to cancel out the pasty look my sunscreen gives me.
Step 1: Apply zinc oxide sunscreen.
Step 2: Dab a few spots of this on (like you would foundation) and then blend with the beauty blender sponge.
Result: glowing skin (not white, not orange).
Also can be used as a bronzer (like the label says).
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I will start by saying that I'm not a bronzer person. I have never found a bronzer that looks good on me. I remember a lady at the Guerlain counter once tried to convince me otherwise and literally forced me into trying one of their bronzer but the effect was so bad that even she had to admit it and told me to just stay out of it.
Until I have found this. What the secret behind this product is, I can't tell. Maybe it's because it has no shimmer at all or maybe because it's so sheer and of just the perfect color it looks like a real, natural, healthy tan.
What is even better about it are numerous ways it can be used. You can use it alone, all over face for a subtle tan or you can apply it below or on the boney structures to contour.
It can be mixed with a moisturizer or - and this is my favorite feature - it can be easily mixed with a foundation either for a tanned look or to transform your lighter winter foundation into a darker summer one! It blends in beautifully with a foundation, especially the water based ones. I believe (I haven't tried this yet) you can also mix it into the physical sunblock to reduce the white cast it usually leaves.
It doesn't clog pores, evens out skin tone, neutralizes redness, doesn't dry out the skin and even hydrates a little.
It's a thick liquid packed in a glass bottle with a pump dispenser (I have no trouble getting out the amount of the product I want, you just need a little practice and I always wipe the pump with a tissue after I've used it to avoid clogging it - yes, this works!). It looks really dark and bad in the bottle but transforms into a sheer tint when applied.
I believe it's a product that just about anyone can make work for oneself.

Like other reviewers stated this is a very thin liquid bronzer with no shimmer that's meant to be used mixed with a lotion. It comes in a pump dispenser that dispenses way too much product and I don't think I would have bought this if I hadn't spotted it online for under $20 since the regular rate is upwards of $30. I love that it's good for your skin and it's much more subtle than others I've used. This gives a more naturaly tanned look without any orange tint or sparkles but I prefer to use a half pump with a physical sunscreen as opposed to moisturizer. When I use this with a moisturizer it's a bit too sheer and seems to emphasize any redness in my skin but with sunscreen it's a very pretty sunkissed color that lets me skip foundation and just use some concealer under my eyes. I'm not sure if I'd pay full price for this but I would repurchase if I could find it at a discounted rate again since it's less expensive than the Bronze Goddess bronzer I've been using to tint my sunscreen and skip the hassles of foundation matching.
*Update* 5/17
I've been using this every day now that the weather is warming up and the rest of me is getting more color than my face. It's easy to add to my sunscreen for as little or as much color as I want and it's perfect for daytime since it has no sparkle. The pump can still be a little hard to control but I could have gotten an oddball. This has never caused me to break out but I don't wear it alone either. Even though I find the price a bit much I'm getting ready to order a second bottle.

This is a must-have for when I am between foundation shades! I use it to darken my lighter foundation. It's pretty watery but pigmented, and absorbs well into skin. I've been using it on and off for 3 months, and am halfway through the bottle.

Didn't want to shell out the bucks and had been using Cargos Multi Mix Bronzer which is discontinued:( Dr. H is not as concentrated as I had hoped and have to use a lot more than I'd like. I have used up a half a bottle in about 4 weeks. Also it does not blend with my zinc based SPF (Luzerns)as well as Cargos. A little streaky. I like to use silicone, synthetic fragrance and paraben free skin products.Next up is Omorovicza Sunkiss SPF 15 mucho $$$

I wanted to like this, I really did. But it just didn't work well for me. I have medium toned skin, and no matter how I worked with this (and I'm pretty good at working with products) it just looked bad. I'm not sure how, but it managed to be both too muddy and too red at the same time.
I have combo/dry skin, and I tried this blended with a moisturizer, with a sunscreen, and just a little bit on its own, dabbed on with a stippling brush. I tried it just on the high points of the face, I tried it as a contour, and I tried it all over. Nothing looked good. It either disappeared completely or it looked ruddy/muddy (again, not sure how that happened)
I have ended up using it on my legs, but like the other reviewer mentioned - this is pretty expensive for using on the legs :) For the price, I wouldn't repurchase.

I'm supposing this works better on those who aren't ultrasuper pale..
I can make it work, but have to blend it in a lot and also on my chest/neck to not be apparent.
I do like using it when I want to look a bit more golden.
I also love the scent.
I have found it looks great on my legs :) (it's kinda pricey for legs, though!)
Overall, for the price, I guess it's just not for me.
edit 2: i just wanted to put up a comparison, as someone below had said that Bonne bell bronze gel is an equivalent product, for less money--i own that one too.
The bonne bell comes in several colours, the Hauschka only has 1 shade.
Comparing to Golden Tan by Bonne bell, the Dr. H one is
1. less reddish (looks more natural) 2. spreads better 3. has a strong herbal scent. 4. Nice dewy sheen (bonne bell looks normal, like your skin texture)
The Bonne bell one makes me look a bit sunburnt, the Hauschka one has more of a caramel tone. The Bonne bell one doesn't expire so soon as the Dr H one.
They both look natural, i would prefer the Bonne bell one only as a blush/bronzer, and the Hauschka one as an all-over tint as well, or to mix into moisturizer/foundation. The Hauschka one wins for me by a slight margin. They are both great products.
Edit- got 2 compliments on my skin 2day, one of them from my brother, who didn't notice when i had put pink streakS in my hair! He said i looked 'rosy' and my skin looked smooth, i put it down to this! It imparts a very natural bronzed colour with a sheen, no shimmer or anything. It looks so very pretty, and makes my skin feel soft. Packaging is terrible, price exorbitant, and there IS a relatively quick expiry date. This looks very pretty mixed into sunscreen, or moisturizer, like a Greek tan look (jennifer aniston). I also love it mixed with a serum (e.g EL ANR) and used all over, and powder on top.

Ask any photographer who knows anything about beautiful natural lighting when the best time to shoot is and you'll likely be told "during the golden hours". The golden hours refer to the first and last hour or so of sunlight. There are plenty of technical reasons why the golden hours produce beautiful natural light like a reduced lighting ratio and less contrast, the simple truth is warm diffused light just looks great on film (or digital)! The four photographers below have done a great job of capturing this natural wonder.

This is my review for the hair mask, and wow, I must say that I am in love! I had been looking for a replacement mask ever since the Activate Hydrate brand got discontinued, and thanks to Sally Beauty Supply, I found this holy grail product.
It contains an array of heavenly ingredients like silk amino acids, raspberry extract, flaxseed oil, moringa protein, soybean extract, and vitamins b5, c and e, with illipe butter, honey and white lily extract to maintain moisture
The scent is like freshly washed linens on a warm spring day, lol, seriously, it reminds me of clean laundry detergent and lilies, but not too overwhelming.
Texture: Thick; Color: Opaque; Slip: Check
Cones: Dimethicone is the second ingredient
Verdict: Definitely e a staple, as I find good hair masques hard to find and this is definitely good

Hello! I live in Portland, OR, which rains a lot. I'm eyeing a spot in my backyard for a strawberry patch, but my boyfriend says that that spot floods too much in the winter so they would die. My point is that it's usually a very dry and sunny spot in the summer, so they would do well (we get three months of zero rain in the summer and the rest of the year is drizzly/rainy), and strawberries tend to die out in the winter anyway. What do you think? Would their root system be damaged beyond repair in a spot that gets a lot of roof-water runoff? |
Follow-Up Postings:
By the way, we are renters, so please do not judge for the state of our dilapidated shed! |
It is a small area, what about adding a box made with 2x8's to elevate them? I don't know how much gutter costs, but the gutter that is there is dumping into your spot.... I have no shed, so can't fault yours. an additional thought. Based on my experience a raspberry bush would be more rewarding. |
This post was edited by cckw on Sat, Feb 15, 14 at 12:41
Hello: Maybe you could make a frame that can lean up against the wall to divert the water away during the winter. Use 2x2's and clear plastic or something. Fresh Strawberries sure are tasty....Good Luck! |
- Posted by larry_gene USDA8b-OregonPDX (My Page) on Sat, Feb 15, 14 at 22:55
...or just add more used bricks to the area. The strawberries would do better in soil raised a few inches. Commercial fields in the Portland area use hilled-up rows. These fields in winter are puddled between rows and the plants remain unflooded. Using a raised area also makes it easier to deter slugs by providing a distinct area for bait and other deterrants. It's all a moot point anyway unless that gutter is fixed; that much roof runoff will overwater anything planted there. The momentum of heavier runoffs could wet the soil over a foot away from the wall and will drill holes in the soil due to the several feet of drop. That little patch of ground looks handy, but has its problems. Check out some recent forum posts on alternative strawberry planting methods. |
A 10 ft piece of gutter should cost you about $8, and a couple of brackets maybe another $8. I would't think about planting anything there without dealing with the gutter. |

Hello, I need to choose the ventilation to go over the 36" Bosch 800 induction cooktop. It will be an insert to go in the cabinetry. I need the filters to be able to go into the dishwasher if that is possible. I don't need it to be the absolute most powerful thing on the planet, but decent clearing of smoke and grease. I looked on the Bosch website and the one they show is only 29" wide. I am assuming the hood insert should be the same width as the cooking surface, right? Suggestions? |
Follow-Up Postings:
What I've read is the hood should be about 6" wider than the cooktop so you get 3" extra on each side. I'm buying a 30" induction cooktop, so I'm getting a 36" hood. You should get a 42" hood. The other thing I've been told here is that the rule of thumb for ventilation over an induction cooktop is 100 CFM for every foot of cooktop, so you want at least 300 CFM. I'll get a hood somewhere between 400 and 450, just to give me a little wiggle room and because that's already a pretty low CFM hood. |
I don't use length as a criterion for flow rate, as required flow is better determined by hood aperture area and thermal plume velocity, but as I recall the rule of thumb, which was originally commercial, it was based on length of hood boundary, so for island hoods it would be the twice the length plus twice the front-to-back depth times 100 cfm. For wall hoods I think the length was only counted once plus the two sides. If side skirts were used then only the length. (Note: Commercial hoods have thin sides, so hood aperture is essentially the hood dimensions. Residential hoods may have apertures that are smaller than the hood dimensions. It is aperture that counts for flow rate, but note further that if the aperture does not extend to the limits of the expanding effluent cone, then some of the effluent will not be captured, much less contained.) For rules of thumb that have some cachet, there is a kitchen ventilation guide at Greenheck.com that has some rules. A link may be found in my Clippings, or rummaging around at Greenheck may be beneficial. kas |

This one kicked the kilts high in the air and turned up the ambient temperature of the entire affair, even if the weather had a bit of a scowl lurking behind those fleecy clouds that greeted a sold-out crowd May 14 for the fifth annual Highlands Fling.
The celebration of Santa Lucia Highlands vintages took place at the Boekenoogen tasting room near Soledad, where the Boekenoogen family demonstrated flawless hospitality, throwing a party that was overflowing with excellent food, provided by their crack team and Paradise Catering.
The seamless service, attention to detail and excellent top-of-the-line restroom facilities (always worth the rental), made for a warm welcome in every respect. Wineries participating for the first time had to appreciate the level of organization this event conveys. In the future, it would be great to have an option for guests to purchase wine.
Once again, the overall quality of the wines keeps escalating, and the choice of delightful chardonnays and pinots from punchy to powerful to polished, made for a long list of favorites. Having a vast selection of exceptional edibles, including mini sirloin as well as pork loin sandwiches, lamb sliders, grilled reubens on rye and grilled cheddar with onion jam, all served up hot and toasty, plus a groaning sideboard of cheeses, dips and veggies, made this a culinary deep dive.
In Steinbeck land, one would expect nothing less than the finest veggies, and grilled asparagus delivered the goods. It wasn't hard to find wines that complemented the spears. The deliciously fresh 2010 Wrath unoaked pinot was a perfect pairing, because it had a wee bit of smokiness on the finish, like when you burn a marshmallow while making s'mores.
Wrath's winemaker, Sabrine Rodems, had an interesting story to share about this wine. Joe Allarid had given her a ton of Pisoni clone fruit from his vineyard that he couldn't use, and she stainless fermented it and threw it into neutral barrels. It turned out so well, she went back to him and asked him for the weight tag so she could pay him. Only 40 cases were made, and she's saving some for her wedding. Allarid's comment on the wine was simple, honest: "She's an awesome winemaker! That wine turned out amazing." His 2008 Tondre Grapefield pinot is no slouch, either, with fabulous spices that make all your tastebuds sit up and go to work. The custardy texture rewards their every effort.
Many new discoveries
Boekenoogen's chardonnay never ceases to please, and Pisoni's 2008 chardonnay was as crisp and clean as an all-the-windows-open spring morning, while Chris Weideman's 2009 Pelerin Sierra Mar chardonnay oozed with a depth of stone fruits and substantial minerality that made it a lovely pair with the indulgently buttery-garlic grilled shrimp, served up by the platterful by Yvette Palmer of The Mountain Oyster out of Coalinga. Palmer says never skimp on the fresh garlic. Or the butter. Or the wine. Thankfully, she did not skimp on the shrimp, either.
McIntyre was on the lips of many: Besides its own 2009 Estate K1 Block chardonnay and 2009 Estate Block 3 pinot (my second-favorite wine of the day), the 2008 Wrath Chardonnay was a torrent of ripe apples and peaches, swept along on rich waves of minerality. In contrast, La Rochelle's 2010 rosé of pinot from McIntyre was the veil between twilight and evening, pure intrigue.
Discoveries are the hallmark of a successful tasting, and the Fling was rife with them. Especially gratifying was a taste of the Mooney Reserve pinot from Vigna Monte Nero, made by Michael Mooney of Chateau Margene fame in Paso Robles. He's been buying fruit from Ray Franscioni for a while, and it was rewarding to taste what this fruit could do in the hands of a pro. A very big, plummy stalwart stallion of a pinot, this one went 16 months in 50 percent new Francois Frere MT barrels. It was so good, I drank some. At $64 per bottle, it was hard to spit, especially in front of the grower, who is not given to spitting.
My No. 1 pinot of the day had to be the 2008 Hope & Grace from Doctor's Vineyard, a decidedly huge but elegantly structured wine, with a great mouth-feel and a continuity on the palate that was hard to match. That Pommard clone is just unstoppable, and can take a lot of oak: This one went 16 months in 60 percent new French, with no racking. Scheid hitched the same horse to their wagon with the 2008 Reserve Doctor's pinot, which was stellar and also richly cloaked, but in no way overpowered, by the massive new oak. An engaging wine, again featuring the Pommard and Calera clones, plus some 777 and 828.
Among my perennial favorites, Sequana's 2009 Sarmento vineyard pinot is a consistent charmer, with cedar and cinnamon spice, a tantalizing hint of brown sugar and caramelized sweet onion, pulled smoothly together by a nylon zipper of acidity.
For those who like 'em bigger, the 2009 Lucia — Garys' pinot, the second label from Pisoni, was a big, dense cherry chocolate bomb of gooey goodness.
When I thought I couldn't take any more, the Caraccioli Brut Rose bolstered me through another helping of shrimp, followed by a photo with Gary Caraccioli and Ray Franscioni, who chided me not to confuse the two of them, who are indeed twisted twins.
Not tasted at the Fling was the Scheid Vineyards 2008 Estate pinot noir, which was awarded "Best of Show" at the West Coast Wine Competition. Congratulations!

KINGSVILLE, Mo. — Eric Tschanz stands in the middle of the five-acre fruit and vegetable garden, near the giant red and green apple sculpture, gazes around, and is sort of amazed by it all.
The fruit and vegetable garden at Powell Gardens, about 20 miles east of Kansas City, hosts more than 2,000 plants. It opened in June. |
It's a sight he sees every day at work. And yet, he has a hard time believing what he and his staff have developed — a world-class garden of fresh produce that would be the envy of the most sophisticated of horticulturists and fresh food junkies alike.
"We had an international vegetable garden at our old visitors center 20 years ago," said Tschanz, president and executive director for Powell Gardens, a botanical gardens complex about 20 miles east of the greater Kansas City, Mo., metropolitan area. "We were amazed at how popular it was. And it seemed to cut across demographics."
Tschanz said Powell Gardens closed that old visitors center about 12 years ago to open its new gardens in its current location.
"We opened a new place and were amazed at the outcry that wanted to see us do a vegetable garden again," he said.
Tschanz said the planning for this latest creation began about nine years ago. It's been under construction for the past three years and finally opened this June.
The garden is all organic, except for a small amount of Roundup used to control weeds, said Matt Bunch, horticulturist at the gardens. Now that it's up and running, the garden will undergo three plantings a year — once each in spring, summer and autumn.
There are more than 2,000 plants in the garden, including many most people will recognize. There are 52 varieties of apples from trees that include some transplanted from the old Stephenson's Apple Farm, a now-closed institution in the Kansas City area. There are 60 grape varieties, 20 varieties of peaches. A pair of greenhouses hosts bananas, oranges and other tropicals. There are blueberries, hazelnuts, basil.
Then, there are plants probably few have heard of, such as the pawpaw, which looks like a small banana and has 15 varieties. There are persimmons, including a variety that was sent over as a gift from Russia. There are kiwis, hops, figs.
There are even edible flowers.
"It was as much luck as timing," Tschanz said. "We didn't know then that people would care so much about where food comes from.

Ok now I am second guessing...The ceiling is 9ft, area is 12x10' Will it look strange not to carry molding to ceiling ? KD thinks I should not carry to ceiling b/c of room size/layout.
I put in outlets for cove lighting. Uppers are 42", I'm reading a lot about dirt/dust on top of cabinets. Opinions please. I'm leaning towards 42" with a short crown molding(Cherry molding on top of soft white cabinets) with cove lighting. Plans are posted under the thread title "final layout". thank you. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I would go to the ceiling, even if you have put in a spacer board (what is the size of the space between cabinet & ceiling?), and then crown to the ceiling. That gab would drive me nuts. Not only dust, but spider webs would get up there and be so hard to clean. |
- Posted by EATREALFOOD (My Page) on Fri, Apr 6, 12 at 15:29
Well, DH & the KD don't think I should extend the crown. I have seen it done both ways and I'm not against either. I'm going to keep it simple and not extend it. |
- Posted by shades_of_idaho (My Page) on Fri, Apr 6, 12 at 23:34
We have one high cabinet that the crown made it even harder to clean on top off. When I had the cabinets re-done I had them leave the crown off. BUT I also put that easy clean ,I think it was rubber maid, plastic up on top so I could take it down and wash it instead of having to reach up so high to wash the tops of the cabinets when the crown was still there. |
- Posted by mama_goose (My Page) on Sat, Apr 7, 12 at 9:47
I had to add a filler piece to make the crown go to the ceiling on the vintage cabinets in my kitchen. I like the look of cabinets to the ceiling. But also, I had to remove a soffit, and taking the cabinets/crown to the ceiling meant that I didn't have to replace ceiling tiles where the soffit had been. Win/win situation. shades, I read somewhere on GW, about laying newspaper on the tops of cabinets to collect the dust and grease film. When it's time clean, just roll up the newspaper, toss, and replace. |
I do something like that mama_goose. I have a linen cabinet with a space above it and I made a quilted cloth to fit the space. Quilting it just makes it a little stiffer and so easier for me to put back by myself without it wrinkling up. I have a cloth over my fridge and freezer too. So easy to just throw in the wash. |
- Posted by shades_of_idaho (My Page) on Sat, Apr 7, 12 at 17:35
I like the newspaper idea. I also have a cloth or place mats o top of the fridge. Like you Marti I needed some thing a bit stiffer to slide in on top of fridge. There is just a little bit of space but certainly enough to collect dust and grime.Which reminds me it is time to wash them, LOL |

I think the papers over the cabinets/fridge trick is a fine one. Never thought about over the fridge. I hate to clean the top of a fridge especially, because of the greasy dust that collects there. Certainly I will have plenty of newspaper (bird cage bottoms) so why did I not think about it!!!! I'm not planning on upper cabs, but a couple of tall ceiling height pantries for the new kitchen. And, we will have crown molding everywhere in the house which my DH makes himself. He just installed the last wall of it in our master. After we do the floors throughout the house, the old baseboard will be changed to match the really high crown molding. Except none in the kitchen, since the whole perimeter will be hidden by cabinets on LEGS. NO toe kick, I totally dislike them. |

Ok, now he is doing both rooms at once, since locating the studs on the wall the two rooms share is making it an easier task. I'm glad he is in there with the work, because my African grey parrot's cage is in the dining room and he has been "helping" his papa, hammering, screwing with the electric drill, making grunts and such, but so far none of the cussing. Even now, Kimali is saying, "Kimali gotta go to work, he is a good boy, yeah....MoonPie, MOVE!!!" MoonPie is the maltese. So I know the work is in good hands with Kimali supervising and keeping Papa amused. I'll tiptoe outside, not in the tulips, but in the HOSTA, dig some holes, move some plants before the day gets too hot, and enjoy the sound of baby birds all around me. This is the spring of the baby birds. So far, three nests in our yard, that I know of. Carolina wrens, rufrous sided towhee, and Eastern Bluebirds (YES!!!) and then other birds are bringing their fledglings to the feeders in my bird-friendly yard to teach them to fend for themselves. I just qualified as a Backyard Habitat, and I am pleased. Have a great morning, all. Spring is here. |

And, since we won't have any upper cabs in the kitchen, I'm thinking they will have to finish that crown the same way my DH is doing the rest of the house. I don't want him doing it after the remodel is over, don't want him doing it NOW, to be truthful, he drives me crazy with all the hammering and drilling and dust piles on everything, lumber piled in the rooms not involved. He is such a stickler for doing things with marks on the walls EVERYWHERE, that I'll have to paint again when he is done. But, just a few rooms.....the rest will be remodelled and I think that will happen this coming winter. Toodles, everyone. Been distracted by HOSTA!!! |

Warcraft movie update: Metzen says "still getting it together"
While we still have no exact answer to that, Chris Metzen gave us a small update on the film in an interview over at vg247 published yesterday. When asked if a considerable amount of time was being spent on the movie, Metzen replied, "I wouldn't say "considerable" at all just yet. We've been through a number of story meetings, and we're still kind of getting it together with Raimi and his team and jamming on themes that we want to chase."
Sadly, the interview didn't reveal many specifics, but Metzen responded favorably when asked if he was concerned about dissappointing Warcraft fans: "Nobody wants to screw it up: we all want to hit it hard and have it be something that is as resonant and canonical as it can be. But given what Warcraft is, with all these moving parts, we're going to have to take some liberties here and there. I'm under no illusions about that fact ... "
It's hard to draw any new or concrete conclusions from the interview, but it's good to see that the movie is still being talked about. WoW.com will keep you updated as we learn more.

Welcome! Hope you have a great time here!
You've found a great "neighborhood" to visit. These people are the best. Welcome and I hope you have a great trip in September. I'll be coming behind you in mid October.
I can't believe you can keep your trip a surprise for your daughter! I get far too hyper to keep that kind of surprise.
I did meet a family last year, when I was traveling to Florida, that had just told their children they were headed to Walt Disney World. Those kids were psyched! The parents had an additional surprise in store. The grandparents were meeting them in FL.
mini-V What will you celebrate?
Adult daycare for the kid inside you.
Well, the continuing story on the shhhh..."surprise".....
My DH, his mom, my MIL, called the other day and of course DD, who is 11, thinks the phone is always for her, answered, and they had a little chit chat, and then she (MIL) said, so " when are you going to Fla?" and DD, being compleatly in the dark, said "What?" I get the glassed over look, and start mumbling, and can't think of a thing to say... and DH, my hero, said, "Where not going to Fla, you've got school!" I could just imagin my MIL, saying, "Oh, your not going, I thought you were?" Now, I get really and think, we sure have blown it now. All this time and not a peep out of anyone, all the planning right in front of her!! To mess it up by one phone call!!! She knew, she knew, DD did not know!!! Ok, I said all is not lost, she still won't figure this out, yet...just a few more days....
September 23 - October 1, 2006 Pop Century
Don't fret if the surprise is let out of the bag. She'll have more time to be excited and anticipate the trip if she learns of your plans. My dh surprised me with a trip to Mexico years ago, but kept telling everyone - and I do me everyone I knew- where we were going but me. I got really upset, by the time we were about to leave, of friends telling me that I was really going to have a great time. I finally exploded a few days before we left and was slightly disappointed to find that we were going to Mexico and not FL. (The hint was that I wouldn't need clothing for warm weather.) It was a great trip, but I would have been much happier anticipating the trip if I'd known WHERE.

Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) Bug Bytes
June 26, 2001
Vol. 2: No. 12
1. Anthrax Awareness
2. Minnesota Laboratory System
3. Meningococcal Disease Issues
4. Lyme Disease Update
1. Anthrax Awareness
An interesting abstract concerning anthrax detection was presented
at the General Meeting of the American Society for Microbiology
in May To evaluate the ability of clinical labs to identify anthrax,
the New Mexico Public Health Laboratory sent a blinded specimen
of the Sterne strain of Bacillus anthracis to four labs in
the state. Three of these reported the specimen as "Bacillus
species, probable contaminant," and the fourth sent the isolate
back to the state lab for identification, 9 days after initial screening.
This failure to identify anthrax in a timely manner raises an important
concern. If Bacillus anthracis were to be used in a bioterrorism
attack, clinical labs may be the first to detect such an event.
Consequently, it is critical for all labs to be prepared. If a non-hemolytic,
non-motile, large gram positive, spore-forming rod is isolated from
a human specimen, anthrax should be ruled out. The MDH Laboratory
should be contacted immediately so that confirmatory testing can
be conducted.
2. Minnesota Laboratory System
To assure Minnesota's bioterrorism preparedness, the MDH Laboratory
recently received funds from the Association of Public Health Labs
(APHL)/CDC to begin developing a statewide laboratory network. The
vision for this Minnesota Laboratory System (MLS) is to have an
informal, integrated network of public and private infectious disease
testing laboratories to enhance infectious disease surveillance
and outbreak response at the local and state level. When in place,
such a system will markedly improve our collective statewide ability
to address bioterrorism, emerging infections, food safety, antibiotic
resistance, and other as yet undefined threats to the health of
Minnesota's citizens. In the coming weeks we will be discussing
the MLS with labs throughout the state. Please contact Paula Snippes
at (612) 676-5258 if you have questions.
3. Meningococcal Disease Issues
Two fatal cases of meningococcal disease serogroup C occurred in students
from the same high school in an Ohio town over Memorial Day weekend. The
ACIP recommends that antibiotic chemoprophylaxis be given to close contacts,
defined as household members, daycare/nursery school co-attendees and
others with direct oral secretion contact with the case-patient (kissing,
sharing a drink, etc.). Contacts of contacts are not considered to be
at risk. Despite these recommendations, rifampin was given to approximately
37,000 persons in the community area of this high school. A few days later,
a third teenager from a different high school in the area was diagnosed
with meningitis (later confirmed as serogroup C). ACIP recommendations
state that a meningococcal outbreak control vaccination program (vaccine
covers serogroups A, C, Y, and W-135) be considered when 3 or more cases
have occurred in less than three months and the attack rate exceeds 10
cases per 100,000 population. This criterion was not met in this situation
since the first two cases are considered co-primary cases and are counted
as one case. However, approximately 5,800 students and teachers at several
high schools in the area were vaccinated in public health clinics. It's
easy to second guess our colleagues and we recognize the tremendous pressure
of concerned citizens when two teenagers have died. In last week's MMWR
was an article describing recommendations when a case-patient with meningococcal
disease has flown on a commercial airline (http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/
mmwrhtml/mm5023a2.htm Attention: Non-MDH link).
It is recommended when a case-patient has been on a flight of 8 hours
duration or longer (including ground time), antimicrobial prophylaxis
should be considered for those sitting immediately next to the case-patient.
Implementation of this recommendation is often very difficult. As a first
step, we do query all of our case-patients for travel histories in the
14 days prior to their onset of illness. Please report suspect cases of
meningococcal disease immediately to (612) 676-5414.
4. Lyme Disease Update
Last week the New England Journal of Medicine released several
articles on its website related to Lyme disease that will be published
in July (http://content.nejm.org/
Attention: Non-MDH link). Of note was an article
demonstrating that a single 200 mg dose of doxycycline given within 72
hours after an I. Scapularis tick bite can prevent the development
of Lyme disease. An accompanying editorial notes that the risk of Lyme
disease after a known tick bite is low (3%) and most Lyme disease cases
result from unrecognized tick bites. In the majority of circumstances
in which the tick bite occurs in an area of low incidence for Lyme disease,
in which the tick is not a nymphal tick, or in which the tick is not at
least partially engorged, the risk of Lyme disease is so low that prophylaxis
with doxycycline is not indicated.

When the Southern appetite is in dire need of comfort food for a snack, there's nothing like a homemade pimento and cheese spread slathered between two slices of white bread.
This soothing food ritual was instilled decades ago when pimento and cheese sandwiches were a basic in our large family; however, one day in the late 1970s, our old-fashioned recipe got "bammed," as chef Emeril would say.
It happened during one of our yearly visits to Franklin, where my sister and her husband had a music studio. Quite often, we young mothers would lunch at Miss Daisy's Tea Room while our husbands jammed with other musicians.
We girls had taken Momma to the Tea Room where I personally ordered a small basket of Miss Daisy's pimento and cheese finger sandwiches. Expecting the basic soothing recipe, I took a bite and my taste buds popped … Miss Daisy had added Tabasco sauce to the Southern icon and we all loved it.
Our family had never spent money on Tabasco sauce because we grew our own peppers and fermented them in vinegar for about a month … homegrown turnips and collard greens were naked without it.
Anyway, as the decades passed, time took its toll on my culinary common sense and I began making my pimento and cheese spread with regular or low-fat Cheddar cheese mixed with low-fat mayonnaise because weight loss had become more important than taste.
I even tried to make that tasteless gunk "pop" by adding jalapeños but it was like trying to turn a sow's ear into a porterhouse steak. I didn't realize how bad my imitations had gotten until a co-worker brought a pure dish of the Southern icon to last year's Christmas party.
Hers didn't have Tabasco added but the old-fashioned recipe was the same. Throughout the remaining workday, I visited the employee lounge's refrigerator so often, I wound up apologizing to myself.
For those who need justification, I recommend making this comfort food for medicinal reasons for teenagers who lack ambition or to induce a healthy dose of curiosity to stave off old age for your parent.
And then, save some for yourself.
Old-Fashioned Pimento
and Cheese
1 pound American processed cheese
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 2-ounce jar pimentos, diced with juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
(To maintain Southern integrity and balance, don't change the proportions.)
Grate cheese into mixing bowl. Add mayonnaise, pimento with juice and salt. Mix well.
To achieve Miss Daisy's "perfect pop," add 1⁄4 tsp of Tabasco sauce.
Makes 2 2/3 cups.
Calories: Don't know and don't care.
Concerning Miss Daisy's Tea Room, it is still located in downtown Franklin in a marvelous turn of the century home and is as enormously popular as her cookbooks.
In 1978, I bought a copy of her hand-typed, first cookbook for $4.95.
(Leba also writes the "Upon Reflection" column every other Sunday in the Banner. firstname.lastname@example.com.)

3003 - would like a package type dropdown on tag repository page
I would love it if a "package type" drop down was added to the tag repository page with the following options:
infer from tag name (default)
This dropdown would let us have explicit control over package type reducing possible mistakes (which can be really annoying when they happen). Also, there really shouldn't have to be a forced connection between the name of a package and the type. Those should really be two different properties and this option would allow that.

Newspaper and Cleaning Glass
Name: Chris Status: student Grade: 9-12 Location: CA Country: N/A Date: September 2006
Why are newspapers very effective in cleaning glasses/mirrors? Why does the ink from newspapers not stain the glasses/mirrors?
Some newspapers will cause glasses and mirrors to smear. There are several factors that play a role:
1. Newspaper (in the trade referred to as "newsprint") contains no solid components like calcium carbonate or silica, like higher quality paper. These minerals can scratch the glass, which can be confused with smearing.
2. Older newspapers were printed (and many still are) with oil based inks -- basically a cheap mineral oil. These too will smear or stain a window or mirror if a solvent or detergent is used to "clean" the surface.
3. Now the trend in printing inks for newspapers is to use water based inks. This allows newer and different types of pigments to be used too. These papers don't contain the oil of the older conventional inks and consequently are less likely to stain or smear a mirror or window.
There are two tests to tell which type of paper/ink combination is being used:
1. Hold the newspaper (or magazine for that matter) between your thumb and index finger for a minute or so. If your thumb/finger stains, you are using the old type of ink. The newer water based inks do not transfer on to your finger.
2. A related test is to gently rub the newspaper with a piece of typing paper. The friction will cause the older paper/ink combination to stain the typing paper. The newer water based systems are much more resistant to this type of test.

Newspapers are good at cleaning glass because the paper leaves very little lint. Compared to paper towels, news print is much more rigid and hence the fibers will not individually separate like they will from a paper towel. This is the source of the lint. The ink does not come off for two reasons, one you are wiping a mirror or glass, which is a highly polished surface, so there is nothing for the dried ink to stick to. Second, upon wetting the news print with liquid, the ink becomes infused in the fibers of the newsprint. Think of ink as nothing more than a stain. It is hard to stain windows with ink, yet easy to stain paper. Glass does not absorb ink, while paper will. And so all of the dirt on the window or mirror will be absorbed into the news print.
To think of this more on a molecular level, the paper is nothing more than long interlinked strands of atoms with a flexible backbone. Glass however, is a highly crystalline solid that is hydrophobic (repels water). The molecular properties of each give the unique properties in absorbing stains.
